With input from the public the Jackson City Council debated a mandatory bike helmet law for all riders. After some discussion council president Tony Yarber decided to hold off on a vote and the council will continue to examine the proposed law in committee.
The law which is being proposed by councilman Chokwe Lumumba would require all persons to wear protective helmets when riding a bicycle.
Advocates for both sides of the argument addressed the council in Tuesday morning's meeting in the council chambers at City Hall. Both sides are at odds on the impact a mandatory helmet law would have on encouraging or discouraging children to ride bikes.
Melody Moody, who opposes the mandatory helmet law said that the law would deter people from riding.
"If you force or pressure people to wear helmets you actually discourage them from riding bicycles which means less exercise, Moody said.
Lee Jenkins, with the Brain Injury Association of Mississippi said the law would actually endorse a healthy lifestyle.
"It would be something that would promote physical activity for the kids in addition to being safe," Jenkins said.
Jenkins main objective in supporting the law is promoting the protection of bike riders by curbing their chances of brain damage if they get into a bike crash.
"It leaves you in a devastated position in which you never really recover, if you don't get killed," Jenkins said.
The law mirrors similar helmet laws in Ridgeland and Tupelo. Ward 1 Councilman Quentin Whitwell proposed an amendment which would allow children in residential cul de sacs and dead ends to not have to wear a helmet.
That amendment plus access to helmets for children who can not afford them will be part of the committee discussion.

CHARLESTON (WVVA) - West Virginia lawmakers are looking at a bill that would legalize the medical use of marijuana.
A hearing on House Bill 2961 also known as "The Compassionate Medical Marijuana Use Act of 2013" is scheduled for Thursday in the House Health and Human Resources committee. The bill, sponsored by Democratic Del. Mike Manypenny of Taylor County, would allow patients with serious illnesses to obtain and use the drug if recommended by a doctor.
Nine other House members, both Republican and Democrats, have co-sponsored the legislation.
If passed, qualifying patients would be able to possess up to six ounces of marijuana and would have the option to cultivate up to 12 plants in their homes. Five compassion centers would be set up across the state to provide patients with access to the drug.
There are currently 18 states in the U.S. that allow for the medical use of marijuana. Thursday's hearing is scheduled for 4 p.m.

My daughter loves these boots (probably because they're purple!). the fleecy lining makes them very comfortable, but also quite hot for summer walking, although the lining has compressed quite a bit after only a few outings. we ordered a size 4, although she is usually a size 3, but this was fine as she needed thicker socks than usual to prevent chafing.
May 30, 2014
My daughter loves her new boots. they are very warm with the snugly lining. the fit is spot on!

Bought for daughter, she loves the bright blue colour.
says they're really comfortable, keeps her feet dry and warm and we've been in some really muddy areas.

Most Consecutive Bounces Of A Tennis Ball On The Spine Of A Tennis Racket

Damn too bad i didnt record it when i got 106! I will have to try again
Peter Craig
Another criteria for this record should be: Must hold the racket handle. Holding the rim makes it too easy...
Peter Craig
Gah... I just got 30 but didn't have the camera rolling... will have to do some more later today - just giving you the heads up on the new benchmark in case you want to resubmit before I do :)
Peter Craig
Nice job Brian, a fair effort - how many attempts did that take? I did get 18 but it hit the wall and it wasn't recording so I'll have to try again now.... Brian, Brian... I like the friendly rivalry so far, but maybe let me bask in my temporary glory for at least longer than an hour next time :) - I think you actually got 19 in that clip, are you not counting the last "bounce"? It's tricky to know when it clips the side whether it counts, I'd say it passes because it still hits the rim... so in that case 19 is better than by personal best of 18 so I have a bit of work to do :)

6 Scams to Avoid When Selling Your Car
May 1, 2012 | Posted By: Nick Simpson | Categorized in: Home & Auto
When you think about used car scams, you probably think most often about getting scammed by the used car salesperson. While many used car salespeople are honest and hardworking, there are enough shady ones out there to have created the stereotype in the first place.
Yet, its not only when buying a car you need to be cautious. If youre thinking about selling your used car on your own, there are some risks, too. While the best way to avoid a scam when selling your car is to trade in at a dealership, there will be times when youd rather sell outright.
Here are some of the more common scams you could run into when selling your car:1. Violent car theft.
This is perhaps one of the more uncommon yet probably the most dangerous scam you can run into. Some people will place an ad on an auction site or on Cragislist that theyre looking for a specific type of vehicle. Alternatively, they might respond to an ad of yours. When you meet up with the buyer, you might find yourself on the wrong end of a gun. Make sure that when you arrange a meeting with a buyer, you do so in a place thats visible and public. You might even consider not having the car at your home, as this might be an opportunity for the criminal to case your house and come back later.
2. The bad check.
This is the oldest one in the book. Some people knowingly try to write bad checks for a used car. There are some ways around this; you can often call the bank to verify funds. Alternatively, you can require cash only. You can also tell the buyer that youre going to deposit the check, and that they can have the vehicle when the funds actually clear. Bad checks and fraudulent checks are easily enough avoided, you just have to be smart about it. If someone has enough money in their checking account to buy the car, they can go to the bank and withdraw the cash.
3. Professional car flippers.
Some people will attempt to purchase your car, but theyll offer to pay much less than what its worth. They can often be very convincing, especially if youve been trying to sell your car for a while. They want to get your lowest selling price and fast. They intend to purchase the car from you, and then turn right around and sell it for more than what they paid you for it. This doesnt put you in danger, and its not illegal; however, it will wind up seeing you get less than what you want for the vehicle.
4. Solo test drivers.
Some people will want to take your vehicle for a test drive. They might even leave you a drivers license to hold onto while they do. Be careful here; fake licenses are hard to recognize for the common person. Be especially wary if they not only want to drive the car without you, but if they have a second person with them to go along on the test drive.
5. Buyer overpayment.
This most often happens when the buyer isnt located in your local area, and wants to purchase a vehicle sight unseen. Often, youll get an offer for the vehicle, and the buyer will ask if they can send you a payment. Usually, theyll ask if they can sent you a check for money over and above the cost of the vehicle. Theyll then ask you to wire them the extra money, and theyll arrange for the pickup of the vehicle. It will turn out that their check is fraudulent, and youre out that extra money that the buyer paid.
6. Undervaluing the vehicle.
Some buyers will outright lie to you. Theyll claim that they have checked the book value of a vehicle. They might bring a mechanic along, who proceeds to tell them (and you) that there are terrible things wrong with the vehicle, and that its not worth as much. They might try to convince you that the transmission is about to go, or that the vehicle needs a new alternator. Whatever the issue, theyre really just trying to get you to sell the car for less. Dont fall for these tactics; if they claim something is wrong with the vehicle, have your own mechanic check it out.
There are those who want to harm you, and those that simply want to rip you off. Dont fall victim to these predators. Be smart about selling your car, and youll get the most from the transaction.

Most if not all of the Neighborhood watch on Oak Hammock Drive have lived in the Panama City community more than twenty years--including their leader.
"We are a family and a neighborhood watch," said Mr. Bobby Tyson.
Mr. Tyson is at the helm of the watch program that started at his very front door, or rather his back yard.
"It started twenty some years ago when kids were jumping his fence and cutting through his yard," said fellow neighborhood watch leader Debbie Corley of Tyson.
It was then that his mission began to keep his neighbors and community safe, but not by force-- by keeping a watchful eye.
"I had printed up the fliers for him," said Corley. "And he hand delivered every one for our first meeting."
"Come out to our Oak Hammock Park," said Karen Foster, also of the watch program. "80, 90 degrees Mr. Tyson did not care... that's where he wanted us to be."
Now the group has grown into a working partnership. Everyone watching out for everyone else--a divine sense of community.
A community by its very definition is a group leading a common life by a general rule. That rule for Mr. Tyson is peace and quiet.
"I sit out there out on the porch," said Tyson. "I walk, I drive, because I want this neighborhood peaceful."
"What he does is he gets in his car," said Foster. "He'll start from the beginning of the street and he'll drive to one end and he'll turn around and come back to the end."
If they talked to the right people they might even be able to get their property values to rise all because of the genuine man at the end of Oak Hammock Drive.
"I love it," said Tyson. "Everything about it, from the people and all, I love it."
"Since Mr. Tyson started the neighborhood watch I feel safe," said Marvin Caldwell, another member of the Neighborhood Watch.
"I feel safe as long as Mr. Tyson is around," said Foster.
"I feel very safe here," said Corley.
To thank him for providing that safety, and maybe even more so his friendship, the neighborhood watch hopes to name the Oak Hammock Park after Mr. Tyson. The very place he started the neighborhood watch more than 20 years ago.
"Mr. Tyson is my very good friend," said Corley. "And he's sick and we want to do something special for him."
The Panama City Commission is expected to formally vote on the dedication at their next meeting.

Looks even cooler in person!

Comments about this product:
The sign looks way more authentic in person than in the photo -- it's not just a single piece of wood, it's horizonal planks that have been distressed (an indent here, a scratch there) to look like the actual Univille sign. It's about an inch thick and seems very sturdy. The picture on here didn't catch my eye, but I received it as a gift and was very impressed!Lost one star because it's not really "painted" like the description says -- up close it has that distinct printed look. But you don't notice that at all when it's hanging.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

* = Required Fields
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (BP) -- Donald Paul Hustad, organist for Billy Graham crusades and longtime professor at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, died June 22, according to his family. He was 94.
Donald Paul Hustad
Hustad, who taught at Southern Seminary for 40 years, leaves a legacy as one of evangelicalism's most significant and influential musicians, SBTS President R. Albert Mohler Jr. said.
"Don Hustad was one of the giants of Christian music of the 20th century -- an almost iconic figure whose personal ministry and professional artistry were combined in such a powerful way," Mohler said. Hustad's work with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, the Moody Bible Institute and Southern Seminary "place him at the center of some of the most important events and institutions in evangelical history," Mohler said. "He was an artist, gentleman, warmhearted believer and a great servant of the church."
Hustad first encountered Billy Graham, who was at the time pastor of a small Baptist church in Western Springs, Ill., when he became the organist for the radio show, "Songs in the Night," which aired many of Graham's sermons. The late George Beverly Shea, longtime Graham crusade soloist, was the program's featured soloist. Hustead had worked with Shea years earlier at Chicago's WMBI radio station.
Shea, recalling his first meeting of Hustad in his book "Then Sings My Soul," wrote:
"Another audition I remember was set up by Aunt Theresa, who had a friend 'who should be playing organ for WMBI.' When we heard him play one number we knew she was right. Don Hustad was hired on the spot."
In 1961 Hustad became team organist for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. He played during the Graham crusades and directed the men's choir for the "Hour of Decision" radio broadcasts. He worked with the association until 1967 when he moved to Louisville, Ky., to serve as professor of church music at Southern Seminary.
Hustad was born to Clara and Peter Hustad on Oct 2, 1918, in Yellow Medicine County, Minn. Following his father's death, the family moved to Boone, Iowa, and lived in an institution for indigenous people. Since the family could not pay for their stay, Clara Hustad and her sons had to work.
In a 1987 interview with his biographer, Rhonda S. Furr, Hustad said: "I have to be grateful for this particular circumstance in my life because the chances are that had my father not been killed tragically, and had I not gone to this institution, I would never have been a musician. I would probably have been a happy farmer in western Minnesota."
At age 8, Hustad played hymns in worship services and improvised accompaniments for the institution's Christian radio station. According to Furr, by the end of grade school, Hustad had mastered Beethoven's "Pathetique" Sonata, opus 13, Mendelssohn's "Rondo Capriccioso" and Liszt's transcription of the second "Hungarian Rhapsody."
Following his graduation from John Fletcher College in University Park, Iowa, in 1940, Hustad became staff musician of Chicago's WMBI where he worked with Shea on a weekly broadcast called "Club Time."
In February 1942, Hustad met Ruth McKeag in a local Baptist church. He later told Furr that he "met her on that occasion and fell head over heels in love. It really didn't matter that she was engaged to someone else at the moment." The attraction was mutual and the couple started dating, became engaged and married within the year.
Hustad attended Northwestern University where he studied piano with Harold van Horne and completed a master of music degree in 1945. He taught at Olivet Nazarene College in Kankakee, Ill. from 1946-50, when he became director of Moody Bible Institute's sacred music department in Chicago.
During his 13 years at Moody, Hustad's vision was to shape the programs there like a formal conservatory, and he laid significant groundwork in doing so. In a book about Christian higher education, Safiara A. Witmer called the Moody Chorale under Hustad's leadership "one of the finest music organizations in the country."
In 1955, Hustad reentered Northwestern, this time seeking a doctorate in music. His dissertation represents the first major document on the complete organ works of composer Ralph Vaughan Williams.
He was the author of five books, including "Jubilate!," "Jubilate II" and "True Worship: Reclaiming the Wonder & Majesty," and more than 100 articles about music in church life.
Adam W. Greenway, dean of Southern Seminary's Billy Graham School of Missions, Evangelism and Ministry -- the school that now houses all of the seminary's church music education -- said Hustad was a "remarkable combination of scholar-practitioner."
"Throughout his decades of service as professor of church music at Southern Seminary he impacted countless students in and out of the classroom, and his numerous publications extended his legacy far beyond this campus. Moreover, Hustad's years of faithful service alongside Cliff Barrows and George Beverly Shea as Billy Graham's crusade organist vividly displayed that core conviction which was always at the heart of his teaching ministry -- that music has a legitimate role to play in both worship and evangelism."
Thomas Bolton, another longtime music professor and dean of the former school of church music at Southern, is a contributor to the Festschrift published in Hustad's honor in 2010, "Jubilate, Amen!: A Festschrift in Honor of Donald Paul Hustad."
"It has been my privilege to know Don Hustad personally since 1996, although I certainly knew of him before that time," Bolton wrote in the academic tribute collection. "He was a most gracious and knowledgeable man who loved to think and write about the act of worship and how music fit into the fabric of church life. He was a talented and trained musician who understood that all types of music were appropriate when worshipping almighty God, but he was concerned that any music used in worship should be theologically sound and authentically presented.
"The world has lost a giant in the church music world, who contributed much to the life of Southern Seminary while he was with us as professor and senior professor, and I have lost a dear friend," Bolton said.
Mohler said, "Along with the entire Southern Seminary family, Mary and I are praying for Ruth Hustad and for the Hustad family. At this time, Southern Seminary has lost a dear friend."
Survivors include his wife, Ruth McKeag Hustad, three daughters; four granddaughters; and eight great-grandchildren.
The Hustad family will hold a memorial service Saturday, July 27, at 2 p.m. at Western Springs Baptist Church in Western Springs, Ill.

Glycemic Index
Glycemic index refers to a food's ability to raise blood sugar to a particular level within a given period of time. Glycemic index applies only to carbohydrate foods because they are the foods that most affect blood sugar levels.
Some starchy foods have a high glycemic index. These foods may cause high blood sugar levels after meals. High glycemic foods include instant rice, baked potatoes, and raisins. Foods that contain mostly fat and protein do not affect blood sugar levels very much, so their glycemic index is not calculated.
Most nonstarchy vegetables, fruits, and legumes have a low glycemic index. These foods may help prevent high blood sugar after meals. Low glycemic foods include rye grain, dried beans and lentils, apricots, and peanuts.

More than 200 people turned out for the unveiling of the "Four Spirits" sculpture in Kelly Ingram Park on Saturday, September 14.
The "Four Spirits" was created as a memorial to the four little girls that died in the 16th Street Church bombing in 1963: Denise McNair, 11, Carole Robertson, 14, Addie Mae Collins, 14, and Cynthia Dianne Wesley, 14.Carolyn McKinstry, a survivor of the bombing, opened the unveiling ceremony with a prayer at Kelly Ingram Park, across the street from the church.
"Teach us forgiveness, oh God. Teach us in the memory of four innocent girls taken from us too soon," McKinstry prayed.
Fifty years ago today on Sept. 15, 1963, in Birmingham, Ala, the Ku Klux Clan bombed a church that was used as a gathering spot for civil rights workers. 122 sticks of dynamite were used to blow a gaping hole in the church where four little African American girls would die as a result.
In March 2013, President Obama signed a law to honor the victims— Denise McNair, Addie Mae Collins, Cynthia Wesley and Carol Robertson with the congressional gold medal.
Another little girl, Sarah Collins Rudolph, survived the blast. Sarah was the sister of Addie Mae Collins.
Sarah says that on that day, Sunday school had just ended and the girls were all in the bathroom.
Although Sarah didn't die, she says her physical and emotional pain was great and can still be felt today. She was seriously injured and had to remain in the hospital for three months after the explosion. Doctors removed her right eye and she wears a prosthesis and still has pieces of glass in her left eye.
Today, on Sunday, September 15, 2013, Attorney General Eric Holder and former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice were among those present at the site, to commemorate the tragedy. Rice grew up in Birmingham and knew one of the bombing victims.

Rick we're getting screwed because we all use gas powered vehicles, who can argue with that. But do like me, buy or lease a fuel efficient vehicle, I just did. 32mpg highway, 26mpg city. Mazda CX-5 2015

Why we are getting Screwed on Gas Prices..
Thanks for being my newest friend. You don't have a story today. What do you want to know that you don't know?

Town Square
Businesses Downtown
Original post made by Fran on Nov 11, 2008
With that being said, I hate mall shopping and use the downtown businesses as often as I can. It's my first choice. They have everything I need, except hardware, and garden things and I find parking is easy.
The clothing stores actually help you; prices are comparable to the department stores, like Macy's and nice selections. When I needed a gift for a child, the toy store had great toys and they wrapped. I love the pet store, nice and it's so much closer instead of going to Petco for dog treats & toys. The lingerie store has a choice in my bra size and actually knows how to fit. I think they beat Nordstrom's and Victoria's. The gas station is cheap and the regular works just fine in my BMW, the shop next to them has all sorts of ideas for gifts and cards, the kitchen store has everything I need for cooking and the running store had shoes that were in my size.
All the complaining about the restaurants; sure, now and then you hit an off night, but you can't tell me the mall restaurants are better. I've eaten at almost every restaurant in downtown and they beat all the PF Chang's and the Cheesecake Factories. When's the last time an owner of a chain restaurant every came and asked how the meal was? Baroni's, Baci's, Stacy's have all asked. Don't use a mesg blog to complain, tell the owner or manager.
I'm sorry if I sound like a commercial for the downtown businesses, but I am tired of reading how everyone loves their cute downtown and doesn't want it change, or how some landlord is giving his opinion in the Weekly on what the retail businesses need to do to bring shoppers downtown. If he shopped downtown, he would already know that the retail businesses offer unique selections, personal service, special orders and actually care about you as a customer.
The public needs to realize that the small businesses offer choices, personal service and conveniences that the mall doesn't. On the subject of closing at 6pm, I asked the owners of my favorite stores why they close early, the answer is all the same, they tried staying open until 8pm and spent thousands of dollars in advertising, wages and overhead but hardly anyone shopped downtown after 6pm. I can't blame them. I do find a number of the clothing stores will stay later if I call and can't get there until after 6pm and no they don't ask my name before saying they will wait. That's the advantage of dealing with small businesses.
Most of the store owners live in Pleasanton and need the support of the community to stay in business. If you want your downtown to thrive and stay cute, you need to actually spend money in the stores.

Great post Fran! And I'll add to it, you can pick out a great gift or bottle of wine from around the world with awesome sevice at the wine steward, they also offer AG Ferarri Italian food specialties, dozens of chesses etc... For anyone who hasn't tried it yet, the Bibiane Bakery down near Tully's is AWESOME! I like the positive approach! I personally would hate to see downtown turn into the mall, and think if people would look around they'd realize what is there is much better than most of the complaining you read here. But as you said, businesses need patrons to buy and not just look to stay in business.....
on Nov 11, 2008 at 12:42 pm
good post -- maybe some of the people who love our quaint little downtown will start spending money there. Starting with hosterman who claims to want to improve things. If hosterman would spend a little money there rather than heading off to "conferences" at our expense to debate world peace, or her crisis of the day, it would help. She wants to have a "retreat" for the city council. She better hold it downtown and patronize the downtown restaurants rather than another of her typical boondoggles to some fancy hotel in another city. If I hear of hosterman holding an out of town retreat I will personally start the recall campaign myself. SPEND YOUR MONEY IN PLEASANTON JENNIFER.
on Nov 11, 2008 at 4:48 pm
Wow, I couldn't have said it better. My kid love the toys at GR Doodle bugs, I buy cards at Sincerely Yours, I get my hair done at Gary Patricks, my husband likes the Wine Steward and the art gallerys and is going to miss Benny at Accentuals. In one way, I feel like it's our little secret about the great shops in the downtown, but I understand how the community needs to support them.

Pupils get a taste of 1776 school life (From The Oxford Times)

Pupils get a taste of 1776 school life
Updated 11:51pm Tuesday 5th February 2013 in News
ABINGDON School pupils have been learning about some of the famous figures from its past, including the illegitimate grandson of Charles II and all five members of Radiohead.
An exhibition at Abingdon's County Hall Museum opened on Thursday, the 450th anniversary of an endowment by former pupil John Roysse that established the school.
Pupils got a chance to hold antiques, including a maths exercise book from 1776, and old writing slates.
Yazan Odeh, 11, from Didcot, said: "It is fantastic to be able to hold something so old and see the type of maths they did at Abingdon 250 years ago."
The exhibits were gathered together by school archivist Sarah Wearne, who said: "I think it is fantastic what one small grammar school in a small county town can produce over 450 years."
She said she was particularly impressed by the bravery awards given to soldiers of both world wars who had attended the school.
The free exhibition runs until April 21.

Can anyone tell me how I can access the default system tones, specifically on series 80 devices? I need to be able to play the default message beep, and idealy I'd like to be able to read the tone settings from the control panel so that I can play the currently selected tone.
The problem is that I don't know where these files are located on the device. C:\System\Sound doesn't exist on my device. Would they be located on the system ROM?
If anyone can offer any suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Scottsbluff Students Receive State FFA Degree
The State FFA Degree is the highest degree a FFA member can receive at the state level. This year the Scottsbluff FFA Chapter had three students were awarded with their state degree at the recent Nebraska FFA Convention in Lincoln. Colton Flower, Chrissy Peters, and Tevyn Baldwin have been working toward that goal for the last two years Through their Supervised Agricultural Experience, each worked in a different field of study, like Colton worked as a Cashier and Sales Associate for Bomgaar's. Through the work experience, Colton learned a lot about the retail business.
While Tevyn raised lambs and steers along with working on her family's ranch year around. Through the SAE project, Tevyn got practical experience where she learned the financial aspects of the operation and how important it is to keep good records.
For Chrissy, during the summer's she worked for Anita's Greenscaping, where she learned to trim trees, pull weeds and cut back flowers. For Chrissy her work experience won't stop here. She plans to attend college in the fall and pursue an associate in business and move on to get a master's in landscape design.
These three seniors will be graduating from Scottsbluff High School in May, but their commitment to FFA will continue. All three will be working toward the American FFA degree.
The American FFA degree is the highest honor a member can achieve in the FFA organization. Peters says it will include a huge learning experience and you get to attend nationals and walk across the stage and you receive a larger gold pendant to put on the chain that hangs jacket that hangs from their jacket. She says its a great thing to show off to to fellow FFA members.
The pendant signifies more than 600 hours in work, plus more $7500 hundred dollars and a in depth application. All of which is a strong foundation for Colton Flower, Chrissy Peters, and Tevyn Baldwin who will all be attending college in the fall but who are already working towards their future goals.

Denver Broncos running back Willis McGahee left Sunday's game against the San Diego Chargers with an apparent knee injury. His return is listed as questionable.
McGahee was having success against a Charger's defense that was struggling to stop him early. With seven carries for 55 yards, he was the foil to allow Peyton Manning to work the play-action pass, and find his receivers, not that the Broncos' quarterback is having too much trouble with 63 yards and a touchdown halfway through the second quarter.
If Denver's feature back is unable to return, the load will fall on backup Ronnie Hillman. The third-round rookie has had success in limited time this season, carrying the ball 37 times for 145 yards. With just two carries against San Diego, he's picking up where McGahee left off, rushing twice for 22 yards, including an impressive 21-yard run.
With a history of knee injuries, any time McGahee leaves the field with a problem in that area, it's concerning.

Skype: Eh? Stupid senate must be having a meeting.. Ok lets go.. *Skype pulls out a hook, which he puts on a wire, he held a handel on the end of the hook, it let up and began to bring him to school. Once arrived he unsnatched the hook from the metal pole, and walked in.*
*Walking into elevator, he arrives on floor 10*
Skype: Alright.. just a lousy meeting lets see what they have to say this time..
*Skype attends the meeting*
Student Senate President: In case you have not heard, grade 10 Xig, has gone missing. If you know of his dissapearance please notify us immediately.. (The student who was talking had black hair that went near his eyes but was spreaded apart and combed neatly. He had a sleek smile, he seemed too serious for a smile to enter his day. His eyes were yellow-brownish.* "That is all. Dismissed!"
*Skype walks out, but hears the president call him over. He shakes Skypes hand.*
Student Senate President: Names Demetri. Pleased to meet you Skype.
Skype: Yeah uhh.. How do you know my name.. and just what is it you want?
Demetri: We heard all about the fight with Xig.. We are sorry this wasnt adressed earlier.
Skype: I never complained so I guess its my fault ahah.. *he rubs his head*
Demetri: In any case, your going to be with me for a bit.
Skype: Wha!? Why!?
Demetri: Xig still wants you dead we are pretty sure, so the teachers ordered the best of the senate to go with you.
Skype: Uh dude, your younger then me.. not to mention shorter. Which is a miricale since im pretty short.
Demetri: You forgot, I found out how to use my first tome at the age of 10. You still dont know how to use it Skype..
Skype: Ugh.. fine! *He draws a breath* So.. Demetri, what is the purpose of lugging you with me?
Demetri: Just for class missions, so you dont go it alone. Your health is on our watch during school hours. Otherwise I dont quite care. *Demetri gets a drink from the vending robot.*
Skype: Alright.. Demetri.. *giving him a glance* Lets see.. I know the teach wanted me to explore Tondo Beach..
Demetri: What for?
Skype: Tomes.
Demetri: At that useless beach? Alright..Well lets do it tomorrow. Besides I know you have test to study for.
Skype: Great your a mommy dearest eh.. *Skype puts his shades on and walks out to the elevator* Later Demetri.
Demetri: Take care Skype. Meet here tomorrow after your test.
Skype: Yeah yeah *Elevator shuts and lowers to floor 1, Skype walks out, and pulls out his map, marking his location to leave the city to the woodsy part of the outside of it. He uses his hook fang to get there. Once arriving, he sets down his bag and pulls out his hilt.*
Skype: Where would I be without you.. *He looks at the hilt with the crystal* Probably dead eh? Hahaha! *Skype pushes the button to activate the beam. He begins to practice his attacks on a tree.* Oww! Man I am still achey from that damned idiot!
???: Hey Skype!
*Skype turns around to see his friend, Zin*
Skype: Sup Zin!
Zin: Heyah pal, how are you doing? *Zin was a relatively tall person, around 6 feet, his hair was green and always pushed back firmly, expect one piece of hair that always seemed to go in front of his face. His cheeks were lush with color and his smile seemed to light up the training area*
Skype: Eh been better. You heard bout Xig?
Zin: Oh yeah. The entire high school knows.. Say.. what you got there? *he points to Skypes blade*
Skype: Eh! This is what iv been saving for Xig when he came after me. *Skype chuckles*
Zin: Looks expensive.
Skype: Almost didnt provide enough support against Xig beleive it or not.
Zin: Jeez no wonder why you were saving up on all that P-4. Selling me all your porn must've been worth it!
Skype: Jeez dude shhhh its in the middle of the day comon!
*Zin covers his mouth with both his hands and looks around*
Zin: Sorry Skype!
Skype: Yeah no problem! So.. I need to train, I hear Xig may be back for me.
Zin: Dude, that kid.. has problems. All he wants to do is fight, and he has no reason!
Skype: I dont know.. something tells me he fights for a reason. I saw it in his eyes when he gave me that look.. That kind of "Dont **** with me" Look?
Zin: Youwch. Well he must've really wanted to see your head on a mantel or something ahaha.
Skype: Yep. Well luckily ol Skype knows a thing or two! *Skype raises his sword in the air, chopping a tree limb off unknowningly, which crashed down in front of him* Whoops.. Ahaha.
Zin: Ehehe *looking back towards the city.* Well my CrossX9 is waiting for me bro.
Skype: What the hell! Since when did you get that motorcycle?
Zin: Few days back.
Skype: Arghh man I want one but instead I needed to buy this damn hilt!
Zin: Ah man, listen I dont have a problem lending my cycle to you.
Skype: Sweet!
Zin: Yeah, and ill lend it to you tonight as a matter of fact. Have fun. I could use the walk, besides my house is on the out skirts, being that im 18 and living in the apartment.
Skype: Lucky!
Zin: Not when the bills come in the mail. Seeyou later pal *He walks away down the dirt trail*
Skype: Yeah.. back to training some.
*Skype finishes up and puts his sword away, hopping on the motorcycle he has his fun and rides home.*

A line of intense storms moved southeast across the WFAA viewing area Sunday evening, toppling trees, damaging homes and businesses, and leaving thousands without power.
At Eagle Mountain Lake, a part of Lake Country Marina became detached and started floating away — with 30 large boats moored to it.
Randall Johnson told News 8 he took cover inside his boat and waited for the storm to pass.
"I was talking to my girlfriend on the phone. Next thing you know, sheet metal started flying, and I hollered at her, 'The dock's breaking up!'" Johnson said. "It was five minutes later, 10 minutes later when it finally calmed down and I looked outside, and we weren't even where we were supposed to be at... we were over by the land."
The detached "I Dock" ended up about 500 feet away from the marina. About 10 people on the floating dock or aboard their boats had to be rescued.
Witnesses said they were stunned by the sudden wind they estimated at up to 80 mph.
"Tables were flying; chairs were going into the water," said Mike Pfleger, who runs the karaoke show at Scampi's Cove restaurant. "The next thing you know you see the whole I Dock roof just cave down and you see it just drifting away slowly."
The dock ended up about 500 feet away from the marina.
No injuries were reported, but more than two dozen boats were damaged.
About 15 aircraft were damaged at Meacham Airport in Fort Worth, including a 1965 vintage jet training aircraft originally developed for the Soviet air force. No injuries were reported.
In Denton County, high wind ripped the roof off at least one home and several barns near Krum. Fences were toppled and power was out in the area.
Wind gusts up to 76 mph were reported near Keller in Tarrant County, and the National Weather Service office in Fort Worth recorded a 73 mph wind.
Just before 10 p.m., Oncor reported nearly 50,000 homes without power across Tarrant County, concentrated in Fort Worth, Haltom City and Lake Worth.
The weather service said 80 mph winds were reported near Venus and there was damage reported along the Johnson-Ellis county line, with the strong wind headed in the direction of Maypearl.

After a lot of work on getting things together I was finally able to run some examples which are using FCam API.
What I found out is that the gain cannot be set above maximal analog gain (8.0), and every higher value (8.0<x<=32.0) ends up with the same gain being used, 8.0 (in other words, digital gain is somehow disabled).
I'm using MeeGo 1.2 Harmettan PR1.3, and the FCam::version() function returns 0x22.
Does this feature works with older versions (P1.2)?

Brighton Beach Library - Local History & Photos
Branch History
The Brighton Beach Branch, the 43rd library in the Brooklyn Public Library system, opened for the first time on Dec. 12, 1949. The original building was a one-story storefront, located at Ocean Parkway and Brighton Beach Ave. At that time, the library circulated some 400- 500 books per day, and ranked 23rd in circulation of the 51 branches.
In 1961 a request for a new library in the Brighton Beach area was submitted to the Board of Estimate by the Oceanfront Community Council. In March of 1964, as part of the Beame Plan, ground was broken for a new building. In August of that year, the Brighton Beach Branch reopened in its new headquarters, a 7,500 sq-ft air-conditioned building located at at 16 Brighton 1st Road.
An expansion/reconstruction project, beginning in 1990, resulted in the present 12,000 sq ft building, that opened in April of 1992. The new design, completed by the New York City Department of General Services, features a 15-foot skylight, and new finishes, lighting, display shelving and library furniture. It also has an outdoor reading court which is heavily used by the neighboring community. The library, now ranking ninth in circulation, serves a diverse community which includes Russian-speaking, Asian, and Hispanic patrons.
Famous Facts
The neighborhood is known as "Little Odessa" because it consists mainly of Russian immigrants who began arriving during the 1970s. The main thoroughfare, Brighton Beach Avenue, is lined with Russian shops, groceries, newsstands, restaurants and nightclubs, from Ocean Parkway to Coney Island Avenue. Known for its Russian people and culture, the Brighton Beach community also includes a Hispanic and Asian population.
Neighborhood attractions include the boardwalk and its restaurants, the beach and swimming, Asser Levy Seaside Park, and a venue for Summer Concerts. One famous local institution. "Mrs. Stahl's Knishes", still exists.

Never miss another 'On An On' show
On An On
ON AN ON have announced the UK release of their debut album 'Give In' on March 4th, 2013. The album release will be followed by their first ever UK tour in May.
On An On
Sometime in the spring of 2012, the musicians that would go on to form the Chicago and Minneapolis based trio ON AN ON found themselves at a tipping point. The three of them - Nate Eiesland, Alissa Ricci and Ryne Estwing - had played music with one another in various capacities for the better part of a decade. Most recently they had shared the stage and studio as three fifths of the indie-pop outfit Scattered Trees, which has seen its fair share of success. After two of the members of Scattered Trees left the band, they decided to re-group as ON AN ON, heading to Toronto to record their debut album with Dave Newfeld. After smashing everything they previously knew as Scattered Trees to pieces, ON AN ON have pulled together and created a dream-washed textural journey, offering a biting perspective on life, love, and the commonality of loss.

EL PASO, Texas (AP) - Leaders of a West Texas city have declined to buy an iconic 826-foot smokestack to help preserve a former smelter site.
The El Paso City Council on Tuesday rejected a resolution by the group Save the Stacks to purchase the smokestack, another chimney and nearby land.
Council members did approve a resolution to support saving the property but not committing any money.
Preservationists want to save the former Asarco LLC smokestack and a 610-foot concrete chimney at the plant, which closed in 1999.
Asarco trustee Roberto Puga has said the two stacks could be demolished by March as the company seeks to sell the property. He's estimated a cost of about $14 million to insure and maintain the stacks for 50 years.

Always remember that not everything considered the best can be good for you. A lot of people fall in the trap of counterfeit products hence losing value for their money.
Most of the products in the market will offer shoddy jobs while some cause pain to the users. This is as a result of lack of information concerning the modern brands in the market. To get the solution to your troubles, Emjoi AP-18MS the best epilator for men in the market today has been designed just to meet your needs.
It has a number of advantages that increase its demand every day which include.
One of its important features include the 72 tweezers that are usually accompanied by a cool touch metal head which makes it easier to remove any growing hair on the chest, armpits and legs. The product is portable making it more efficient since it can be carried and used from wherever you are.
The 17 mm disc opening effectively removes the hair from the intended places and the new technology enables the tweezers to move more swiftly over your body with minimal or no irritationat all. This enables the machine to reduce the pain while shaving.
The modern technology associated with ergonomically engineered handle that fits on your hand, makes it possible to move the machine across your body and is capable of removing short hair from 0.44mmhair.
Apart from the reduced pain, the Emjoi AP-18MS epilator for men is able to work fast and in a very short time compared to other brands in the market.
Despite the several cons, some people have complained that using the shaver on old hair it actually hurts. To avoid this it is recommended you do some waxing before the process. Be informed and act smart by placing an order today to enjoy the exclusive benefits.

A police officer was injured and a K-9 unit killed in a shootout in Southern Indiana on Monday. Police say they showed up at the Sellersburg home because of a call from the suspect's wife.
Authorities planned to take him in for a psychiatric evaluation, but when they got there they say he pulled out two handguns and started shooting.
Police fell back, but a K-9 named Kilo stayed in the home. Over 10 hours of a standoff, the suspect reportedly fired several shots. One officer was shot in the leg and taken to a Louisville hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. SWAT teams eventually fired teargas into the home and the suspect surrendered around 9:30pm.
Witnesses say they're just happy to be alive. "My sister, she told me to go in and lock the doors, and that a guy ran across her front yard and had a gun. And then the next thing I heard was all these police cars coming up here and it was a policeman, I think it was a policeman, but the guy was talking and said they had him in a house up here," said neighbor Evelyn Tuttle
That wounded officer is recovering at a hospital. Kilo was killed during the standoff.
The suspect, 31-year-old Joshua Priddy is facing charges of Attempted Murder of a
Police Officer, Causing the Death of a Law Enforcement Animal, Burglary, Residential Entry, Pointing a Firearm, and Criminal Recklessness with a
Firearm. He is currently being held in the Clark County Jail.

Town Square
Pleasanton commission meets tonight on improvements to Lions Wayside and Delucchi parks
Original post made on May 28, 2013
Read the full story here Web Link posted Tuesday, May 28, 2013, 6:35 AM
on May 29, 2013 at 10:53 am
Please fill in the ditch at Wayside park. When Friday's concerts in the park are in use, this is by far the busiest park in town. Kids pay in the dirty ditch as a "playground" and it can be dangerous as well.
A larger park will be a huge asset to our downtown community.
Can you add a dog park too?
on May 30, 2013 at 8:57 am
Please leave the ditch! Kids love it and it's a great place for them to explore. They get dirty, they get minor scrapes and bruises - exactly what kids are supposed to do! I've never seen an ambulance there because a kid got injured. There are very few safe places like this for kids to play in Pleasanton. Everything is flat green grass.
on May 30, 2013 at 10:13 am
A dog park would be wonderful.

pip install pytddmon
This version features a new command line argument, –no-pulse, which disables the "heartbeat" of pytddmon:
python pytddmon.py --no-pulse
The background and idea with the pulse was twofold:
1) Give the impression of something being "alive", like a heart beat monitor in a hospital tells you the heart of the patient is working by giving a signal, pytddmon tells you your project is continously being tested.
2) Give an indication of when the file change scans where being performed, that is purely as a debugging tool.
pytddmon is now available in the Python Package Index (PyPI)
This means you can conveniently install it by issuing the following command (of course, assuming you have pip installed!):
pip install pytddmon
This is a contribution by Maximilien Riehl, thanks a lot!
Thanks to Wari Wahab, pytddmon is now registered on Ohloh.]]>
The bug is about renaming .py files. Imagine you have a unit test test_some.py. It is testing some.py, and when pytddmon is running, all tests are green. You decide you want to rename some.py to something.py because of reason(tm). Since test_some.py is doing import some, but some.py doesn't exist anymore, there will be an exception when trying to run the tests in test_some.py – which in turn fails that unit test. That should make pytddmon sad and red, right?
Wrong! It does not – pyddmon stays green*!
That is why I call it the rename bug (link to issue page).
I found it extremely odd for a long time, and I had a clear memory of this working at some point of pytddmons history. So I tested for the existence of this bug in every single revision (>100!) of pytddmon going back all the way to the launchpad days. Not in a single version did pytddmon work as expected; the bug was there all the time.
So I gave up for awhile. And then later on I built the Monitor class and refactored, refactored, refactored. Still not red!!! What the hell was going on?
Then it hit me how stupid I am. It was the .pyc files! They are left beside the .py file and CPython/pytddmon loads them instead of the renamed file! Face palm!
Anyway, to make a long story short, this sort of thing clearly is something out-of-scope for pytddmon to care for. For example, the exact same (mis)behavior exists when using basic unittest running: python test_some.py will import some.pyc and not something.py. However, in Python3.2 the rename problem is non-existent: .pyc files behave differently. Read PEP3147 for details (thanks for hint on this Neppord!).
One more reason to start using Python3.2 more!
*this is not true if you are using Python3.2. Read the rest of the blog post to understand why!]]>
Long time no see!
Pytddmon has been asleep for awhile. The plans for configurability from the autumn didn't fly, not least because I found out about a serious bug which made me unmotivated to merge stuff into the objarni/pytddmon repository.
But beneath the surface some things has started to happen. In an attempt to understand the bug, I tried to simplify pytddmon.py as much as possible. That work resulted in a new class for file change detection called Monitor. The work to integrate that class is going on in the pytddmon_monitor_integration fork, and so far it has resulted in 30% less code — down from 800 lines to 550! Even though it actually didn't solve the bug , I'm all for keeping the source small and neat, so I think I will merge that fork as soon as it feels stable enough, and make a new release at the same time.
But the bug remains unsolved. However, I have understood the nature of the bug, and actually it might not be possible to solve at all, or rather, not a problem which pytddmon should solve for the user. I'll write a blog post about it some other time.
Since we're so few developers, we've decided to drop support for Python2.6, and focus on 2.7 (keeping CPython3.2 running too). If this bugs you out, please make your voice heard either by commenting here, telling the pytddmon twitter account about it, or join the mailing list and tell us about it.
Also, experimental work is being done to make pytddmon run in IronPython2.7 and Jython2.7. That would be seriously cool, seeing pytddmon in a .NET and Java "suit"!
Oh yeah. Spam. I've had 500 spam comments since october. That is *way* too much administration, so I bit the sour apple and bought an Akismet key. So if you've added comments to this site and I haven't answered, sorry. That problem doesn't exist anymore.]]>
I've put together a road map for pytddmon development efforts until christmas 2011.
We're finishing a major code refactoring effort, using the pylint tool to increase code readibility. We're already up from 6/10 to 9.5/10, so we're almost finished with this.
Discussions about the next upcoming major feature: config file. Basically we want to make changing the behaviour of test-discovery and the monitoring functionality a bit more user-configurable than changing the source code of pytddmon.
Implement config-file feature.
So what's happened since June?
The summer passed without much development, but in August things started happening again. Samuel (and I to some extent) have implemented Recursive Test Discovery, but it is not tested enough (especially not on Python3) to be released just yet. That feature is even more important than the config file feature (IMHO), so we'll release that as soon as it's stable. Another small change that's been happening behind the scenes is the file name change from "pyTDDmon.pyw" to the more conventional "pytddmon.py".]]>
Since doctest-tests are "embedded" in the definition of a function (or class) in Python, the natural thing to do would be to scan all *.py files in the current directory. However, after some discussion, we've decided not do to that, based on the rationale that importing (and thus executing) every *.py file in the current directory may lead to unwanted* side effects.
Here's some code to explain this:
def double(x): ''' >>> double(5) 10 ''' return x*2
If that function is saved in "test_some.py", pytddmon will discoverd it automatically, like any unittest-based test.
However, the natural thing is to save it in a code file, not a test file. If you save it to "unit.py", pytddmon will not discover it. Instead, you will have to specify that you really want pytddmon to look into that file for tests:
python pyTDDmon.pyw unit.py
The new version can be downloaded via the Download link to the right. It includes Python3 support too!
* Even though the Python convention is to not do things when a module is imported (as opposed to being run as a script) via the following well-known idiom:
if __name__ == '__main__': main()
… we consider that knowledge a little bit too non-trivial, and thus decided against letting pytddmon implicitly run all *.py-code automatically. Of course, test_*.py files are still run implicitly, just as has always been the case for pytddmon.]]>
I got really curious and cloned his fork "Always on top", and, just as the name implies, it forces the pyTDDmon window to stay on top of other windows. This is the essential line of code:
root.wm_attributes("-topmost", 1)
But – what a difference a row made!
This neat feature was only semi-available previously via the "Always on top"-checkbox found in every Ubuntu-window*. I used to tick that box every time I booted pyTDDmon on Ubuntu. Annoying.
And such a checkbox is not even available on Windows, which made pyTDDmon really uncomfortable to use in that OS. I'm not sure how Mac OSX worked in this regard – but anyway, now pyTDDmon behaves like this out-of-the-box, as it should do.
So I want to say "Thank you" to KrunoSaho, and mention that this fork was one of the reasons I realized pyTDDmon needed it's own home on the internet.
BTW – stories like this is one of the reasons I love open source software!
* I guess it's really a GNOME feature, but anyway.]]>

Intelligent Ground and Structural Monitoring System
University of Massachusetts, Amherst, 2007 - $14,600The best way to monitor the condition of load-bearing structures (bridges, tunnels, earthen dams, and levees) is to install sensors to measure things like movement, vibration, and water saturation. A typical instrumentation set-up uses a number of individual sensors to monitor each different parameter at each different location. This can become costly and inefficient, however, if many parameters need to be measured at once.
This team, now incorporated as Condition Engineering, is developing a solution with the Intelligent Ground Condition Monitoring System (IGCMS), sensor technology that can assess multiple parameters simultaneously. The IGCMS provides detailed information regarding structural stability while reducing the number overall number of sensors. The device consists of a sensor driver attached to a sensor rope. The rope is flexible like a garden hose and takes measurements all along its length. Sold by the foot, the rope could be used as a stand-alone device or in groups of tens, hundreds or thousands to provide a widespread monitoring system.
