Ladies 3a
Saturday 19th October
The mighty 3as took on Milton Keynes 2s this afternoon. The team had a taxing warm up chat pitch-side whilst waiting for the previous game on SLS to finish.
Things were not looking great when we watched the MK keeper who had just played for their 1st XI v Sonning on the next door pitch walk into position as keeper for their 2s as well. Then Reading couldn't get into their dug-out because some poor geezer from the previous game was sitting in there with a busted shoulder and was waiting for an ambulance to arrive. Nonetheless, we managed to move the warm up chat onto the pitch and before we knew it and after a little hit about, it was time for the off!
Within 2 minutes MK had found the back of the Reading net and the 3as had that horrible feeling that maybe it wasn't going to be their day (perhaps slightly less warm up chat next time?). However, within about 15 minutes Abbie D soon put things right with a fine solo run from midfield into the D where she blasted home a solid equalizer that screamed past the keeper and signalled that we meant business. Just before half time Blanche put the team ahead and early worries were put aside.
A stern half time talk and much discussion about Percy Pigs saw a revitalized side take to the pitch once again. Not really sure about the exact order of things really, but the team romped home with a convincing 5-3 victory, with 2 more goals from Blanche and 1 from Helen.
Highlights of the match, in no particular order, were
All in all it was a good team performance with plenty of great passing and hard work; the youngsters were a credit to the club and proved themselves to be dedicated to the cause and growing in confidence and skill and the oldsters were obviously very good (in parts) and full of good intentions. Oh, and scrap what was said about warm up chat before – it obviously worked and has its merits!
Thanks to Liz Spencer and Jo Newman for umpiring and also to Lucy Scott – our first aider and top notch photographer.

Not much to say except – we went, we played, we lost!
Reading 3A's Allstars!!, had an interesting match resulting in a score that didn't reflect the game at all. Well done to Katie Parkin on her first 'Ladies' match, Rachel Mann, Alice Lowe, Blanche Bennett, Tracie Holdship, Charlotte Tanner, Elinor, Immy, Helen Craston, Hannah Kelly and Eliza and Timmy (back from Uni).
Saturday 6th April 2103
Reading LAdies 3As played Gerrards Cross at Sonning Lane. The game started quite evenly with both teams having a couple of chances which both failed to convert. The 3As then upped the pressure on the Gerrards Cross goal, and were awarded a couple of short corners, and several good chances, some of which were well saved but unfortunately they were unable to convert them. Gerrards Cross came back at the 3As and again both teams created some good chances which were well saved by both goalies, leaving the score 0-0 at half time.
The 3As started the second half very strongly , and were quickly awarded a short corner which unfortunately was not converted. They continued the pressure on the Gerrards Cross goal and Sue scored to make the score 1-0. Gerrards Cross rallied slightly and both teams created some chances which were not converted. Abbie Dixon then doubled the 3As advantage by scoring to make the score 2-0. The 3As forced a good save from the Gerrards Cross goalie, before the 3As goalie was called into action to save a couple of Gerrards Cross attempts on goal. Gerrards Cross continued to increase the pressure on the Reading goal, and scored a goal to make the score 2-1 before being awarded a short corner which they failed to convert. The 3As responded well and Sue scored her second to make the score 3-1. The game ended with both teams having a flurry of chances which neither managed to convert to leave the score 3-1 at full time.

East Lyme's aging town dock wasn't in great shape before Superstorm Sandy struck in October but it really took a beating when the storm surge rolled in.
In a letter to First Selectman Paul Formica, Captain Greg Dubrule of the Black Hawk sportfishing boat, which is one of several commercial boats that rent dock space from the town, explained the extent of the problem.
"We've made dozens of Band-Aid repairs over the years to both the dock and the buildings. I've spent thousands of dollars of my own, trying desperately to keep ahead of the problems," he wrote. "In the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, the dock condition has worsened to the point that it is now unusable. The extreme tidal surge has broken everything in its path. Many of the dock pilings, which are the backbone of the entire dock, have shifted and are now at an angle. The landing is just hanging there after dropping more than a foot. This is an urgent safety and liability issue for the town of East Lyme."
Dubrule wrote that even though his phone was ringing off the hook with people eager to go fishing before the close of the season, he had to cancel trips because his employees and even a few customers had fallen through the rotten planks of the dock.
"The dock is way beyond the condition where I can try to repair it anymore," Dubrule wrote. "I am requesting that the town of East Lyme consider a major upgrade or rebuild of the dock. I hope you can make this a priority, as we start fishing again in the middle of April."
Who is Responsible for Repairs?
Under the terms of the lease, Dubrule is responsible for maintenance and repairs of the dock and the building he rents. "He knew what condition the dock was in," Formica said. "Clearly the responsibility was on him."
Having said that, however, Formica concedes that maintenance and upkeep typically refers to normal wear and tear, and Superstorm Sandy was anything but that. Formica told the Board of Selectmen that some of the FEMA money the town expects to receive will probably be used to repair the docks.
Additionally, the town has applied for a grant to install a water and sewer system in the area in order to build a public bathroom. The Black Hawk's dilapidated ticket office, which also was badly battered by the storm, will likely be torn down to accommodate the new building.
Indeed, the entire area is slated for improvement as part of the major renovations planned for Cini Park. Future plans include a new park and picnic area, an expanded parking lot and permanent bathrooms, all of which will serve the increased traffic to a significantly larger beach and new boardwalk once Amtrak construction is complete.
A New Lease on Life
So how will the fishing boats fit into this new vision? Formica said the town originally decided to rent out the dock to support the local fishing culture. Until now, the docks have been rented at fairly low cost to the fishermen. Some pay as little as $1,000 a year.
The Black Hawk, which is the biggest boat moored at the dock and has full use of the parking lot, paid $7,500 last year, which was a reduction from previous years because of the anticipated disruption created by the Amtrak bridge construction in 2012.
Knowing that plans for Cini Park would be coming to fruition in 2013, leases for all the boats that use the docks were set to expire in December 2012. However, Formica said he'd like to continue to support the local fishing industry and, with that in mind, the town is currently renegotiating all the dock leases.
"We have not signed the leases yet but we expect to have it done by next month," Formica told the Board of Selectmen on January 2.

Categorized Under: Education, Families + Communities
Many young people in the United States today—the workforce of tomorrow—are unprepared to contribute to or succeed in today's economy. As a society, we are inadequately preparing young people to successfully transition to higher education or work. This crisis threatens our nation's ability to compete in a rapidly changing and competitive global economy. This brief highlights some proven strategies to increase opportunities for young Americans and transition youth toward work, education, and training. It also recommends a youth program, Promoting Self-Sufficiency for Youth through Employment and Training Initiative.

"For as the waters fill the sea, the whole earth will be filled with an awareness of the glory of God" Habakkuk 3:14
Over the years I have often asked God to show me more of himself in my daily life - I've wanted to see him more, feel him more and somehow know him more in my every day existence - in the ordinary, humdrum day to day routine.
But lately that prayer has changed. There are so many times in the bible where God is present in the mundane and ordinary that I've started to pray less 'God show yourself', and more 'God give me eyes to see, ears to hear and a heart to understand'.
Following God isn't like a mystery treasure hunt or game of hide and seek where God hides himself away, and I have to 'look really really hard' to find him. Why would God hide from me? Actually how could he possibly hide, when every fibre of creation sings of his glory......?
Even if God tried to hide himself, creation, the people in my world and my very being would sing of him every day...... If I am willing to listen.
Because sometimes it almost seems too much to take in.... When I incline myself to see, hear and experience God in the every day it can be like a freight train coming at me. Catching even a tiny glimpse of his heart for me, my world and the people in it can be so breathtaking that it is almost too much to bear - it challenges me at every corner as God speaks, explains and holds me in his amazing the depth and beauty. A glimpse of the heart of God is not without it's challenges, but I wouldn't have it any other way...........
May all our prayers today not be about 'hide and seek' - but all about 'seek and you WILL find'.

Men's Swim Team Tops Nation in GPA
News Release Date:
Wednesday, February 23, 2011
WALLA WALLA, Wash. -- The Whitman College men's swim team scored an impressive victory in the classroom a year ago, placing second nationally in NCAA Division III with a combined grade point (GPA) average of 3.52.
This year, the Missionary men elevated their team GPA just a bit to 3.55, but that was enough to make Whitman No. 1 among all Division III teams in the country.
|Jenn Blomme
The College Swimming Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) gives its Team Scholar All-America awards each year at this time, based on grades from the fall semester.
"We are so proud of this accomplishment," Whitman swim coach Jenn Blomme says. "Considering the long hours swimmers put into their training, and the rigorous academic demands of Whitman, it is no small feat for our large men's team to post the highest GPA in the country.
"Ultimately, this is beautiful evidence of what Division III athletics, and more specifically Whitman athletics, are all about, which is the true scholar-athlete," she adds. "On our team we take very seriously the importance of striving for success in the classroom as well as in the pool."
Swim teams, male or female, must have a combined team GPA of at least 3.0 to earn the CSCAA's Scholar All-America designation.
The Whitman women's team also qualified this year with a team GPA of 3.35.
The Whitman men, after trailing only Oberlin College last year, finished just above Pomona-Pitzer and Emory University on the lastest list of NCAA DIII GPA leaders. Pomona-Pitzer and Emory tied for second place at 3.52 with Vassar College taking fourth at 3.44.
Other schools in the men's Top Ten include Oberlin, Carnegie Mellon, Colorado College and Washington University (St. Louis).
|Brian Wakefield
|Nick Wood
Not only did the Whitmen men top all schools in NCAA Division III, they combined to post a team GPA that was higher than all schools in NCAA Division I, and higher than all but one school in Division II.
Ohio's University of Findlay, which shows just three men on its swim roster, led Division II with a 3.69 team GPA.
Whitman had 20 men on its fall semester swim roster, including six seniors.
One of the six, Brian Wakefield, was honored last spring by the Whitman Athletics Department for having one of the top five GPAs among all varsity athletes.
Wakefield, a graduate of Philomath (Ore.) High School, is majoring in biology with minors in chemistry and Spanish. He is writing his senior thesis on research he did last summer at Seattle's Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. His research involved preliminary tests of a new chemotherapy for treating pancreatic cancer.
|Jamie Nusse
|Chad Trexler
Wakefield plans to pursue medical school studies in a few years with a eye on a possible career as an orthopedic surgeon.
The six seniors also include captains Nick Wood and Jamie Nusse.
Wood, a graduate of Campolindo High School in Moraga, Calif., has a double major in Environmental Humanities (EH) and Rhetoric and Film Studies (RHS). One possible career interest is film editing.
Wood is writing his EH thesis about "The Unnatural History of the Swimming Pool," which looks at what he calls the "technification" of competitive swimming. His RHS thesis, titled "Changing the Rhetorical Function of the Wildlife Host," is about the late Steve Irwin and his effect on the nature genre.
Nusse, a graduate of Henry Gunn High School in Palo Alto, Calif., is a history major. His orals project (similar to a thesis), titled "Movies, Television, and Tapestries: Authority and Culture in 11th Century England, Vietnam-era United States, and Revolutionary Cuba," is a comparative study of how authority manipulates and directs cultural production.
|Nate Wells
|Eliot Stone
The remaining three seniors are Chad Trexler, Nate Wells and Eliot Stone.
Wells, a graduate of Kamiak High School in Mukilteo, Wash., is a double major in philosophy and mathematics. He is writing his senior thesis on "The Theory of Henstock Integration" and planning to attend graduate school in mathematics.
Trexler, a graduate of Reno (Nev.) High School, is majoring in geology. His thesis is tentatively titled "Brittle Structures Within Crystalline Rocks of the Bighorn Mountains, Wyoming."
His thesis is based on data he collected last summer in the Bighorns as part of a project funded by the Keck Geology Consortium. His study looks at topography and faults in the Bighorns as they relate to the Laramide Orogeny, which was the mountain-building event that created the modern Rocky Mountains.
Trexler is under consideration for a position this summer as education specialist at Mt. Rainier National Park. After that, he plans to pursue graduate studies in geology and eventually work in the education or research fields.
Stone, a graduate of South Eugene (Ore.) High School, is majoring in astronomy.
For his senior thesis, Stone is taking photos of the variable star Delta Cephei and analyzing them with IRAF software to determine the star's period.

Two Chatham County sheriff's officers have been indicted for having sexual relations with inmates they were supposed to protect.
After receiving complaints from inmates, the Chatham County Sheriff's Office began a criminal investigations into the two officers, which led to charges of sexual misconduct. One officer is already behind bars and the other is expected to turn himself in.
Chatham County sheriff's deputy Cpl. Shelton Crowder was indicted on charges of sexual assault against a person in custody. Officials say the event took place on Aug. 12, 2012. Crowder was let go from the sheriff's office after 17 years.
Chatham County Corrections Officer Lewis Lane turned himself into the Chatham County Sheriff's Office Wednesday night after being charged with sexual assault on an inmate. He is currently being held in jail and has been fired.
Officials say this type of activity will not be tolerated.
"We have an obligation to protect these inmates," said Chief Deputy Roy Harris. "We can not allow staff members to prey on them, whether it be to get them extra commissary, or special privileges like books, cigarettes, whatever contraband that this inmate may want. Even for consensual sex, it is wrong."
The Chatham County Sheriff's Office follows the Federal Prison Rape Elimination Act. They have a hotline for inmates and former inmates to report such acts.

A deliciously seasoned broad bean, onion and tomato spread. This recipe is inspired by a dish traditionally served with pita bread for breakfast in Egypt. A great way to use broad beans when they're in season, but feel free to use frozen when they're not.
Recipe by: Beverly Estes
Dukkah is an Egyptian spice and nut blend that is served on crusty bread dipped in olive oil. It is thoroughly addictive. It is normally made with pistachios, this version is based on hazelnuts.
Recipe by: rosichops
This just might be the national dish of Egypt and it is so good! Lentils and macaroni are topped with a tomato sauce and fried onions.
Recipe by: Elaine Russell
Chickpeas and spaghetti are an Egyptian combination and you'll be surprised how satisfying it is! Flavoured with garlic and Tabasco.
Recipe by: Elaine Russell
Dukkah is a traditional Egyptian recipe for a coarse spice blend that traditionally you dunk olive oil coated bread into. It is also good used as a rub in fish, lamb or chicken.
Recipe by: SpicyChick
This is called Middle Eastern broad bean stew and not Moroccan, because I have also borrowed flavours from my Lebanese roots. The first time my carnivorous partner tried it, he honestly thought it contained meat. To make this dish completely vegetarian/vegan, omit the anchovies. Serve with steamed basmati rice or couscous.
Recipe by: XjacyX
The inspiration for this dish was a recipe for a lamb and okra dish, bamya, given to me many years ago by an Egyptian diplomat's wife. It's gone through a few transitions to its present form! Serve at room temperature with barbecued meat, or as a hot side dish with grilled chicken breasts etc. Or it can be served on its own as a vegetarian dish.
Recipe by: patinoz
An Egyptian delicacy, ice cream flavoured with orange blossom water The magic ingredient is mastic, which, when ground and mixed with the milk, gives a velvety texture to this unusual ice cream which is also egg-free.
Recipe by: Herbie's Spices
I had dinner at my Persian friends a few nights and ago and he made this gorgeous dressing to go with lamb kebabs. I have since made it to go with grilled chicken. Especially great with Greek, Moroccan or Middle Eastern dishes and very easy and quick to make. Make sure you use a good quality natural Greek yoghurt.
Recipe by: Terese
These Tunisian biscuits are something like the Arabic version of shortbread. They are deliciously buttery and tender as well as being gluten-free.

Caleb Benenoch Decommits From MSU
This was bound to happen sooner or later. Spartan Tailgate reports that Texas OL recruit Caleb Benenoch has decommitted from MSU. He chose the Spartans early in the recruiting process — before his stock blew up. He has since received offers from a ton of Big 12 and SEC schools, and his commitment to MSU was starting to waver publicly. I'll have more on this in Wednesday's recruiting roundup.

A Spartanburg woman is looking for a new place to call home after the roof of her apartment collapsed.
Fire crews said the collapse happened about 1 p.m. Sunday at the Crescent Hills Apartments on Pineneedle Drive.
Crews said part of the roof in the apartment's bedroom fell onto a bed. We're told no one was in the room at the time.
Investigators said they don't know what caused the roof to fall in at this time.
No other apartments were affected.

J.Cole released the visuals for his TLC assisted single "Crooked Smile."
The single, from his sophomore album "Born Sinner" is an anthem to embrace their imperfections despite what society or anyone else may say to them. But the St. John's alum dug deeper for the video and decided to showcase a plethora of issues plaguing the nation, including police shootings.
Say what you want about Cole and how "sleepy" he is, the boy made a powerful statement with this one.

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - From rail to trail, the Big Four Bridge has graced the Louisville skyline for more than 120 years. It's been more than 40 years since trains rumbled across the tracks.
It is called the Big Four Bridge because it carried the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Railway - nicknamed Big Four Railroad. The 2,525-foot span containing six trusses allowed freight traffic to dramatically increase across the region.
[PREVIOUS STORY: Big Four Bridge security in Jeffersonville set to get a boost]
Construction on the bridge began in October 1888. On December 15, 1893, two years before it was finished, the bridge project made headlines across the nation after strong winds dislodged a construction crane. A truss holding 41 workers on the span collapsed into the icy Ohio River. Twenty-one of the workers drowned.
Local and National newspapers lead with the story. The headline on the Jeffersonville News declared the accident an "awful disaster." Louisville's Courier-Journal published the headline, "Death Undid the Building." The tragedy was also front page news in the New York Tribune and Los Angeles Herald.
[PREVIOUS STORY: Ramp construction on Indiana side of Big Four Bridge complete]
A total of 37 people died during the bridge's construction.
The bridge was completed in September 1895 with a $2.5 million price tag. It would cost $60 million today.
Everything old is new again - the original Big Four Bridge had a pedestrian walkway on the west side of the tracks. People could walk across the bridge alongside trains until 1929 when a newly constructed replacement bridge using the same bridge piers replaced it.
Because of the bridge's height, high trestle elevated structures cut through neighborhoods for more than three miles in Indiana and Kentucky. Elevated trains ran day and night over neighboring houses. The viaducts that once towered over homes were dismantled and sold for scrap.
By the late 1960s, modern locomotives were too heavy or wide for the bridge. In 1969, the Interstate Commerce Commission declared the bridge abandoned. The Kentucky and Indiana approaches were removed in 1974.
In May 2008, faulty wiring on a light fixture caused a fire on the bridge deck. While the crossties and wooden walkway were damaged, the bridge structure itself remained unharmed.
Known for years as the bridge to nowhere - is a destination once again.

DENISON, TX - A Denison elementary school will be busier than usual when classes resume next week. The student population at Mayes Elementary is about to double. About 200 students who used to go to Layne Elementary are making the move following the closing of that school. Teachers from Layne will also be joining Mayes staff. With all these new adjustments, the principal of Mayes says he's excited, but anxious to see how the school year goes.
We have many of the same feelings and emotions that the boys and girls do and how's it all going to work out," said Brent Hoy, Mayes Principal. We're coming from small schools now in a large school. What does that mean, the way we do business, how does that mean the way we need to do business with the kids?"
I think that's the really good thing about working as an educator is that every year is a new start," said Clelia Pena, Teacher. "So, it's never boring, always something new."}
The physical facility at Mayes Elementary has also been expanded to provide more classrooms and new technology to accommodate all the new students.

This is an old one I guess, but how should mandatory profiles really work?
Our situation is this....
In AD each user points to a profile. At the moment this is set to: \\<servername>\ygg-userprofiles\staffv5
(It is the 5th generation of staff profile). It is a mandatory profile and the required .man file is in place. The profile is 2.98Mb.We assume it works.
When a user logs on, I assume they get given this profile and that it downloads to their machine. However how should this happen? WHen the profile downloads should it keep it's name - staffv5 when stored on the machine or will it rename itself to whatever user is logged in - thus creating several profiles if several users log in?
At the moment when we check the machine there are a few profiles on there - all of various sizes - they seem to grow.
I assumed that when they logged on the staffv5 profile would download to the local machine (2.98Mb of it) and sit there. Anyone else who logs in would then reference that profile (as it is the same).
What I didn't expect is several profiles there each with different user names.
IN addition if they do change usernames then I didn't expect them to grow. One staff member's profile is now at 8Gb - even though it is meant to be mandatory - which I assumed would keep it at 2.98Mbyte.
Is there a setting somewhere I have missed?
Any help appreciated,

Definition of Acid rain
Acid rain: Rain or precipitation that contains elevated levels of hydrogen ions. Elevated hydrogen levels decrease pH levels. Decreased pH level creates an acidic atmosphere. Acid rain results from the combination of fossil fuel emissions and water in the atmosphere. The environmental effects of acid rain include the acidification of lakes and streams, damage to trees at high altitude, the acceleration of decay in buildings and poorer air quality.
Acid rain also poses serious human health risks by contributing to heart and lung disorders such as asthma and bronchitis. Acid rain can be reduced by the regulation of industrial emissions and the adoption of energy efficiency alternatives and pollution prevention programs. Acid rain is a form of acid deposition.
Governments have made efforts since the 1970s to reduce acid rain with good results.Source: MedTerms™ Medical Dictionary

Pflugerville ISD will start offering insurance benefits to domestic partners of employees, including same sex and heterosexual partners. The school district is the first in Central Texas and possibly the state to offer such benefits.
"Our students come from exceptionally diverse backgrounds and they know what discrimination looks like," says Pflugerville ISD Superintendent Charles Dupre.
It was that way of thinking that led the district to making the decision to offer benefits to domestic partners.
"This is not a political statement. This isn't about anything other than the fact that in Pflugerville ISD we believe in taking care of one another. We believe everyone has a voice, everyone is valued for their contributions to this organization," said Dupre.
But, some conservative groups, like Texas Values, don't agree with the decision. President Jonathan Saenz believes the district is making a political statement.
"The decision by the superintendent of Pflugerville ISD to make a drastic change in their policy is a major political decision and it's quite frankly shocking they would do this without letting the public be involved, without a public hearing," said Saenz.
He believes the district is going against the state's Defense of Marriage Act.
"That's in our constitution that marriage is between one man and one woman so to try to recognize some other type of arrangement and suggest that it's similar to marriage is against our constitution," he said.
Chuck Smith with Equality Texas argues, "The simple reality is that in 2012 offering access to domestic partner benefits is becoming a standard component. It's about supporting families."
He points out that many government agencies and Texas-based companies already offer those benefits.
"I think we will see additional districts do it and I take my hat off to the Pflugerville superintendent cause he's probably going to take whatever flack there might be."
Some of that "flack" includes questions about the cost. According to Dupre, the new benefits option comes at no cost to taxpayers and no additional cost to the district.
"For anyone who believes were supporting inappropriate agendas, we're not using their tax payer dollars to do that," said Dupre.
Open enrollment begins October 15. The benefits go into effect January 1. It's unclear how many of the district's 2,500 employees will take advantage of the new benefits.

Purpose of Realsched.exe
The realsched.exe process is added to your PC when you install the RealPlayer software. The main function of this process is to schedule automatic updates for RealPlayer.
File Information
The default path of realsched.exe is C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe. The most common size of this file is 180,269 bytes.
You can find entries related to realsched.exe at the following locations in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run, , -, , HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders,
Realsched.exe Startup Information
By default, the realshed.exe process is configured to load automatically when you boot your system. This feature has proved to be more of nuisance than of any genuine value. Removing realsched.exe from your startup program is not a straightforward process. Even when you remove realsched.exe from your startup programs, the process starts automatically again the next time you open RealPlayer. To permanently remove realsched.exe from your startup programs, perform the following steps:
Now, you need to remove this process from your startup sequence. To achieve this, perform the following steps:
Is realsched.exe a virus?
Yes, realsched.exe is also a virus.
The realsched.exe process that belongs to RealPlayer is a safe process and is not a security threat. Please note this realsched.exe file is not a virus.
However, there is also a malicious file by the same name. This malicious realsched.exe file is associated with the Lovgate Worm and also with a variant of Tactslay, which is a Trojan.
How to ensure realsched.exe virus is not running on a PC
As discussed above, there are two known realsched.exe processes—one is genuine belonging to RealPlayer, and the other one is a virus. This is why it becomes important to ensure that only the true realsched.exe process is running on your system. To verify this, press Ctrl + Alt + Del to open the Task Manager window and click on the Processes tab to view all the current process running on your system. If you have disabled realsched.exe using the steps discussed above, but still see realsched.exe in the current processes list, it indicates that your PC is infected. Alternatively, the presence of multiple realsched.exe processes also points to a malware infection.
How to effectively remove the realsched.exe virus
If you suspect that the realsched.exe virus is present on your system, we recommend that you not delete the file manually, as doing so may cause you to lose important data. The best way to handle the realsched.exe virus and other malware infections is to run a virus/malware scan on your entire system using an antivirus tool, such as Antivirus Plus and an antispyware tool, such as StopZilla. After you have secured your system, do not forget to run a registry scan, using a reliable tool, such as RegGenie to weed out the corrupt and invalid entries that may have been added to the registry by the malware.
Driver Update: Some EXE errors are related to driver problems such as obsolete, outdated or incompatible drivers. A driver update tool is recommended to scan your system for corrupted and outdated drivers and to ensure that all your drivers stay up-to-date.

According to Ron Wood, the hyperactive Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist is going to fill in for the deceased Lane when the Faces reunite for upcoming recordings and tours. (Yes, recordings; apparently Wood and Rod Stewart took a "mini world tour" to Costa Rica, Bermuda, and Miami, where they allegedly wrote an album's worth of material in between stints of living it up.) Well, I guess since you can't spell "faces" without f, e, and a, this is a capital idea? I'm sure Rod will be really into Flea's sartorial choices. UPDATE (22 Jan 09, 15:45 ET: Flea and Rod are denying all of it.) [MusicRadar]
Can You Picture Flea As The New Ronnie Lane?
Look out below: BASS SOLO!
No. Please no.
@owenmeany: Yeah, he's good, but it just makes me nervous that he'd throw some slap bass in at the end of "Stay With Me".
@doublewhiskycokenoice: Rod Stewart has the best rock voice ever.
The problem is, some of the best Faces material was written by Lane. I don't think Flea can make up for that.
I interviewed a member of the band a few days ago, and I can tell you that if the reunion happens it's not going to be Flea.
Who would be a better fill-in?
Flea is a bad-ass bassist.
Let's give him a chance…
People said the same thing when Watt was selected to be the bassist of The Stooges…too busy…
Heck…I wish Lane was still alive…what a talent…
The Small Faces and The Faces were both great bands…
So was Humble Pie!
Rock on…
The Small Faces > The Faces
"Come On Children" is the jam of jams.
I don't really have a problem with Flea joining the band…
…it's more an issue of the band reuniting at all.
Leave well enough alone, fellas.
Any number of people would be better. Why do they have to go with a name?
this gets me to thinking, i really do wish I knew what I know now, when i was younger.

The Giants won the Superbowl. They are New York's Team! So what? How could the Defending Superbowl Champions New York Giants be worth less than the Redskins? Check out Forbes New List Here.
After 6 and 5 win seasons the Redskins are still one of the most popular teams on the planet. Worth a whopping 1.6 BILLION DOLLARS.
On Contrary, the Baltimore Ravens could be trouble with the popularity of RG III and WHEN the Redskins move up in the Standings. It's almost time for their Popular Old Middle Linebacker to retire. Remember when the Owner and John Harbaugh were begging the Redskins fans to jump ship? They knew what they were purposely doing. The In Roads they gained through the DMV area might be short lived. When they hit a dry spell I expect those Redskins fans who left to root for Baltimore to bail out and come home. Baltimore is currently in 11th place with all their successes. A few losing seasons and they might be called the Los Angeles Ravens (see the history of the Indianapolis "former Baltimore" Colts).
Hail to Robert Griffith III ! This is our chance to reclaim what is truly ours. The entire Washington Area.
Have you ever compared the Blogs of HogsHaven and the Baltimore Blog. Just go on and compare how many comments have been submitted. It's like night and day. And thus the hope for Redskins fans everywhere to take back what should never have left.

Gulf Drilling Hearings Taking Place In JacksonBy Jeffrey Hess | Published 08 Aug 2012 05:02pm |
The future of oil and gas drilling leases in the Mississippi Gulf iscenter stage at a hearing in Jackson today. MPB's Jeffrey Hess reports environmental groups are claiming rules that allow for oil and gas seismic testing, drilling, and production were improperly set up and should be thrown out.
The Sierra Club, Gulf Restoration Network and others are challenging the validity of the leasing rules the Mississippi Development Authority finalized earlier this year.
Raliegh Hoak with the Gulf Restoration Network says the MDA was not up front about the potential negative effects of drilling as close as one mile to Mississippi's barrier islands.
"Mississippi development Authority when they released those really didn't clearly look at the potential economic impacts and environmental impacts to the Mississippi Gulf Coast from having drilling rigs out there in sound. Tourism is the second biggest employer along the Mississippi Gulf Coast and we need to make sure we are protecting that before we try to do other things," Hoak said.
Today is the second day in what could be three days of hearings in Jackson to examine the rules.
During testimony yesterday, Jack Moody with the MDA defended claims by the agency that expanding drilling could result in 100's-of-millions of dollars in income for the state.
"If you take the process through the full process of the multiple agencies, multiple responsibilities, multiple permits. If you make it all the way to the end of the drilling and production, than sure, that is the obvious end," Moody said.
Moody says the MDA performed an economic study focused on the gains from permits and leasing because that is what the agency is in charge of.
The rules were open for public comment for nearly 45-days during which time the MDA says it received lots of public feedback.
The Sierra Club's Louie Miller is not impressed.
"They have done nothing to try and engage the public on this. It is nonsensical to say 'we tried to engage the public'. They did everything they could to prevent public input by announcing it on December 19th, six days before Christmas. Come on," Miller said.
While a decision is not expected this week, if the rules are thrown out there would no Mississippi waters available for oil and gas companies to lease and explore.

A-10 favorite Hawks to be tested
- Written by Donald Hunt
- Published in Basketball
This could be a big year on Hawk Hill. Saint Joseph's was selected as the preseason favorite to win the Atlantic 10 Conference. The Hawks return all five starters from last year's 20-14 team, which advanced to the first round of the NIT. Phil Martelli, Saint Joseph's head basketball coach, is keeping everything in its proper perspective as the college basketball season begins.
Despite the early season accolades, he knows the Hawks have some work to do. In fact, they have a great non-conference schedule that will test Saint Joseph's right away.
The Hawks will open the season on Nov. 12 at home against Yale in the Coaches vs. Cancer Classic game. After that, Saint Joseph's will then battle Notre Dame in the tournament on Nov. 16 in the Barclays Center. The Hawks will then face either BYU or Florida State, as the championship and consolation games will be played on Nov. 17.
"Always in our scheduling we try to prepare our team to play on the road in the Atlantic 10," Martelli said. "So, we have road games in there and people would say shouldn't teams in this league play a lot of home games. Well, two we would like to play a lot of home games. We have student season tickets that sold out in six days. Then, the additional allotment that went to students sold out in three minutes. They deserved to see their team. It's their team.
"Scheduling, you go to New York play Notre Dame won over 20 NCAA tournament, BYU won over 20 NCAA tournament and Florida State won over 20 NCAA tournament. It's planned a certain way that we'll be challenged."
The Hawks have some quality players in the backcourt with guards Carl Jones and Langston Galloway. Jones led the team in scoring with 17 points last season. Galloway was Saint Joseph's second leading scorer tallying 15.5 points a game.
Up front, they have 6-foot-9 C.J. Aiken, the 2012 A-10 Defensive Player of the Year, who ranked fifth in the nation in blocked shots with a 3.53 average. In addition, 6-foot-8 Ronald Roberts was the A-10 Sixth Man of the Year last season. Halil Kanacevic, a 6-foot-8 power forward, averaged 8.3 points and 8.3 rebounds a game last season.
"They're experienced players," Martelli said. "They've played a lot of games. They deserved to hold their heads high and stick their chests out. They can say, 'Wow! We won 20 times last year. We went to the postseason.' They should embrace those 20 wins."
Jones, a 5-foot-11 senior, spent a lot of time polishing his basketball skills during the summer months. He's excited about the upcoming season on Hawk Hill.
"I just hope we can come together and do the things we need to and finish those games we didn't finish last year," Jones said. "I feel real good about that (preseason favorite). We know what people can do now. We know our weaknesses and strengths. It should be a lot better."
Galloway, a 6-foot-2 junior, is coming off a strong season. He's one of the Hawks best all-around players. He's well aware of all the attention.
"It's been great, but you have to keep working to get better," Galloway said. "You have to be prepared for when time comes to play in the Atlantic 10. We want to build on last year. We want to do more. We've all been working this summer to try to get better. We've been working on our jump shots and going to the basket. It's going to be exciting to see how far we can go."

Vomiting in dogs is a very common occurrence and can arise from a wide variety of causes, from simple gastritis to complex diseases of other body systems. Not only is it very distressing for both the dog and owner, it also provides a challenge for the veterinarian. This article explains the multiple causes of vomiting in dogs, including adverse food reactions, and the range of treatment options available.
What is vomiting?
Vomiting is the expulsion of food, fluid or debris from the stomach or small intestine due to coordinated movements of the gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal and nervous systems. It is important to differentiate this from regurgitation, which is a passive process rather than a coordinated effort like vomiting.
Regurgitation is a sign of disease in the esophagus, such as obstructions (foreign bodies such as a stick, bone or toy, or a stricture), esophagitis (inflammation of the esophagus) or megaesophagus (dilatation of the esophagus due to weakening of the smooth muscle). The main difference between regurgitation and vomiting is that regurgitation is effortless, while vomiting is accompanied by strong abdominal contractions.
How can I tell vomiting and regurgitation apart?
Sometimes this is not easy to do. Generally speaking, if it happens immediately after eating it is more likely to be regurgitation (though vomiting can still occur then). If the content of the material expelled appears to be completely undigested food, this also supports regurgitation. If the presence of bile can be confirmed though, it is more likely to be vomiting.
Causes of vomiting
The most common causes of vomiting are dietary related, either through dietary indiscretion (e.g. overeating, eating overly rich or spoiled food) which causes acute (sudden) vomiting, or adverse food reactions (food allergies) which can cause chronic (long term and intermittent) vomiting.
However, there are a huge number of other causes arising from either the gastrointestinal system itself (stomach and small intestine) or secondary to disease elsewhere in the body (e.g. liver or kidney disease). Within the stomach, possible causes include:
1. Gastritis (inflammatory disease)
2. Stomach ulceration
3. Stomach cancer
4. Obstruction (foreign bodies, telescoping of intestine)
5. Hiatal hernia (part stomach herniating through the diaphragm)
Possible causes within the intestine include:
1. Infectious diseases (e.g. parvovirus)
2. Worms
3. Inflammatory bowel disease
4. Intestinal cancer
Secondary causes of vomiting that are due to disease elsewhere in the body include:
1. Pancreatitis (infection or inflammation of the pancreas)
2. Peritonitis (infection in the abdominal cavity)
3. Hepatitis (liver inflammation)
4. Kidney failure
5. Pyometra (infection of the uterus)
6. Hormonal deficiencies or excesses (e.g. Addisons disease, Diabetes Mellitus, Septicemia, Calcium imbalance)
Other potential causes that do not fit into the above categories are drug reactions (e.g. digoxin, chemotherapy drugs, NSAIDs) and neurological disorders.
Treatment of vomiting
Vomiting is a symptom, not a disease in itself. Whether or not treatment is appropriate depends upon the individual circumstances. If the dog is only vomiting occasionally, is bright and otherwise normal on examination, treatment is probably not necessary. Some dogs with sensitive digestive systems will vomit once or twice a month regardless of any treatment, and if they are otherwise well this should be ignored.
For acute vomiting cases, the first step should always be to starve the dog for 24 hours (while keeping plenty of water available ad lib). After the period of starvation, the dog should be offered small portions of a very bland food, such as chicken and boiled rice, for a few days. Meals should be fed as smaller portions several times a day, rather than one larger meal.
Though treating the symptom itself will often improve patient demeanor and comfort, it is no replacement for making a correct diagnosis of the underlying cause, and certain drugs can be harmful if given blindly (for example, giving metoclopromide to a dog with a gastric or intestinal obstruction). Certainly cases of acute and severe vomiting require immediate treatment, as dogs can become rapidly dehydrated, develop electrolyte imbalances and aspiration pneumonia otherwise.
Managing the vomiting dog
There are 2 goals when dealing with a vomiting dog:
1. Identify the underlying cause
2. Stop the vomiting in a safe and effective manner
In many cases, anti emetic therapy (the technical term for vomiting is emesis, and therefore drugs used to treat it are called anti emetics) is instigated immediately while the cause is being established.
A veterinarian will start by taking a full history, focusing especially on normal diet, recent medication, vaccination status and the description of the symptoms. He or she must first make sure that the dog is genuinely vomiting and not regurgitating, which has a completely different set of underlying causes. It is also important to get a graphic description of the material expelled, and whether it contained bile, fresh blood or what appears to be coffee granules (partly digested blood).
The next step is a full clinical examination, including carefully feeling the abdomen, taking the dogs rectal temperature and assessing the hydration status. Once this is completed, a veterinarian will have a slightly narrowed down list of differential diagnoses in mind. If the dog is not dehydrated, bright in demeanor, and both vital parameters and feeling the abdomen were normal, the veterinarian will often (and rightly so) make a presumptive diagnosis of gastritis, or gastroenteritis if diarrhea is present too, and prescribe antibiotics to combat the likely bacterial infection. The owner is then likely to be sent home with instructions to starve the dog for 24hrs and give bland food for a few days, alongside the antibiotics. The owner is instructed to monitor the dog closely, and return immediately if there are any signs of deterioration, or 2 to 3 days later for a routine check up.
If there are any findings in the clinical history or the physical examination that trigger concern, then further tests are necessary. The first of these is usually blood tests for hematology and biochemistry profiles. Urine and feces may also be analysed, the latter for either nasty bacteria or parasites. Additional laboratory tests may be required in certain circumstances, such as bile acid stimulation testing if liver dysfunction is suspected, or an ACTH stimulation test to look for adrenal disease.
The next stage of the work up involves imaging. The most useful is abdominal radiography (xrays), but ultrasonography and endoscopy can also be very important. Radiography and endoscopy both have to be carried out under general anesthesia, while ultrasonography can be performed conscious. If the imaging does not reveal the underlying cause then biopsies may be taken, either endoscopically guided or via exploratory surgery. Histopathology of these samples (studying the tissue microscopically) can give vital clues as to the cause, particularly by differentiating between inflammation and cancer.
The final diagnostic option is the therapeutic trial. If the dog gets better on the medication prescribed, then it must have been a certain type of disease that responds to that drug. By this rationale, wormers, antibiotics or an exclusion diet trial may be chosen.
Drugs used in the treatment of vomiting
1. Stomach protectants and antacids
These medications are useful when stomach ulceration is suspected. Examples include sucralfate (acts like a band aid over the ulcer), H2 antagonists (reduce acid production) and omeprazole (also reduces acidity).
2. Metoclopromide
This drug blocks a neurotransmitter in the brain called dopamine, which prevents activation of the vomiting centre in the brain (known as the Chemoreceptor Trigger Zone). It is only partially effective in doing this though, and has the additional effect of increasing forward motility of the gut. This means it must never be given to dogs that might have a stomach or intestinal obstruction. It can also cause mental changes such as hyperactivity and disorientation.
3. Phenothiazines (e.g. Acepromazine, ACP)
These are effective at blocking the dopamine receptors mentioned above, in addition to other receptors involved in the vomiting reflex. They are usually used when metoclopromide has failed, but also have undesirable side effects such as low blood pressure and sedation.
4. Antihistamines
Histamine receptors are also present in the Chemoreceptor Trigger Zone, the part of the brain that controls the vomiting reflex. Antihistamines are effective in blocking vomiting that is due to motion sickness, but are little use against other causes.
5. Domperidone
Domperidone has a similar action to metoclopromide in that it blocks dopamine receptors and secondarily blocks serotonin receptors, but it does not have the promotility effects of metoclopromide. However, side effects include vulval enlargement and possible effects on fertility.
6. Maropitant
This is a new drug that is a Neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptor antagonist. It can be given orally or by injection, and is extremely effective at stopping vomiting by working both on the vomiting centre in the brain and on the stomach itself. It is deemed so effective at stopping vomiting that veterinarians must be careful to properly investigate potentially dangerous underlying causes, that could be masked fatally by this drug.

is there a way to reduce stomach acid during pregnancy?
Im not one to get sick (throw up) but in the morning, ive been vomiting stomach acid. Its not alot, but enough to be a problem. I only throw it up in the morning, with in the first 10 minutes of being awake. Is there anything I can take or something I can do to reduce the amt of acid in my stomach? If it helps, im only at 12 weeks.
Stay Regular.
Constipation is a common cause of gas and bloating.
Don't gorge.
Large meals just add to the bloated feeling. They also overload your digestive system, which is not at its most efficient to begin with during pregnancy. Instead of three large meals a day, eat six small ones.
Don't Gulp.
When you rush through meals or eat on the run, you are bound to swallow as much air as food. This captured air forms painful pockets of gas in your gut.
Steer clear of gas-producers. Your stomach knows what they are-possibly onions, cabbage and cabbage-family members such as Brussels sprouts and broccoli, fried foods and sugary sweets (which you should not be eating anyway), and, of course, the notorious beans.
If you follow this, then this should reduce your stomach acid.

Keel said his complaints to former Mayor George Sides and the previous council went unheard, and he hopes this council will find a way to repair his driveway. According to Keel, the driveway was usable until the sidewalk project, then his vehicles, a van and a truck, began to drag on the the large hump left by the project and it became almost impassable for smaller cars.
Dora Mayor Chris Edwards showed the council pictures of his own truck in the driveway, and recommended that the council consult an architect and have the problem fixed.
"This should have been fixed already," Edwards said. "And we need to make it right."
The council agreed, voting unanimously to allow Edwards to consult with an architect and get an estimate on having the issue fixed. Edwards will present the council with those numbers for approval before work begins on the property.
Keel also asked that the city consider selling him a portion of property, currently owned by the city but maintained by Keel. The property adjoins the city's lake property but is excluded from the lake area by a fence. The council tabled that matter until more information on the land ownership could be obtained. Many council members and Edwards voiced support for Keel on the matter, but cited a need for specifics about the property lines.
In other business:
•The mayor presented the first notice for an alcohol license for C & C Food Mart, an application made by Charles Clay. As is required by the city's alcohol ordinance, the council received the application, but took no action. That is the first step in the process, the council will vote on the matter at the next council meeting.
•The council voted unanimously to recognize the service of East Walker Sewer Board members, Randy Stephens, Randy Spears and Phillip Ballenger by waiving the green's fees for them at the city golf course. The sewer board is unpaid and Edwards said this was a way to show the city's appreciation for the service of those board members.
•The council approved the purchase of an on-demand hot water heater for the city park's concession stand. Randy Beck, pastor of Dora Church of God, said his church will pay for the water heater as a donation to the city.
The mayor and council expressed their gratitude to the church and Beck after voting unanimously to accept the donation.
•The council approved sending Police Chief John Duchock to Seattle, Wash., for the 2012 Law Enforcement Support Office National Training Conference at the beginning of May. The conference is free so the city only has to pay for Duchock's hotel and airfare. The conference is part of the program that Dora participates in, allowing Duchock to receive military surplus items for the city at no cost. Items received include blankets for the jail, weapons and even two Hummer vehicles to be used in an emergency situation.
Council members Gary Thomas and Clyde Nix, along with Mayor Pro Tem Betty Sanders voted in favor of sending Duchock to the conference, while Hezakiah Walker cast the only dissenting vote.
•The council voted to hire accountant Wayne Black to assist in the city's required annual audit. Again, Nix, Sanders and Thomas voted in favor of the matter, while Walker voted against it.
•The council also named April 9 to April 15, as "City Clean Up Week." The city will work with churches and other organizations to clean and freshen up the city. On April 14, citizens are invited to meet at Dora Park at 7 a.m. to help crews clean up the city's roadways. Contact city hall for more details.

After reading a great deal about how mercury from my dental amalgams was making me stupid (I'd been searching for the cause for years), I finally went to a dentist the other day to have my four amalgam fillings replaced with porcelain composites.
I haven't been to many dentists in my life, so this was my first female dentist, which made me a tad apprehensive. So many women have tried to pry their way into my head to fix purported problems in there over the years, that willingly opening my mouth to one with power tools seemed a tad reckless.
My concerns were for naught. She was by far the best dentist I'd ever had, which struck me as part of a recurring pattern. The best doctor I'd ever had was female, too. The best physiotherapist. The best divorce lawyer. In fact, all my professional relationships with women have been great.
Why, then, have my personal relationships with women been such a disaster? How could I get along with them so well in one vein, yet so poorly when it involved the most important vein of them all?
Was it because money changed hands professionally? Nope, lots of money changed hands personally, too.
Was it because professional relationships were so well-defined? Nope. With a relationship discussion at least once a week, my personal relationships were as well-defined as any.
Was it because I failed to live up to my obligations as a mature, responsible adult in a loving, equal partnership of mutual respect? Look, this thing is complicated enough without mixing a bunch of gobbledygook in there. Let's just get down to the nitty-gritty, shall we? The biggest difference between my professional vs my personal relationships with women has been…sex. I have it with one group, whereas I merely want to have it with the other.
But isn't sex supposed to bring a man and women closer? Aren't we supposed to do some kind of bonding thing, blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah? So what could possibly be the problem?
Like all great psychoanalysts, I decide to rifle through my childhood memories to find the root cause, when a vivid memory suddenly pops into my head. It's of tall, golden-haired Ken sitting in his red convertible outside a dollhouse, a red sweater tied around his neck, exactly as my sister had left him. Exactly as she'd always left him – high and dry after another date with smoking hot Barbie in one of her teeny-weeny pink mini-skirts.
"The hell with this," I make him say as my pre-pubescent hand lifts him from the convertible and straightens his legs. He strides toward the dollhouse and kicks in the door. Barbie runs out to meet him in a skimpy nightie. She stares at him, her mouth slightly ajar. I know she's supposed to say something, but I'm a man and have no idea what, so I keep her silent.
Ken isn't in the mood for talking, either. He knows he should be carrying flowers. And uttering professions of endless love. And probably reciting poetry, too. But he's got a serious case of plastic blue balls and doesn't have time for any of that.
The next thing I know, he has her over the makeup table, doing things the Mattel engineers never intended. It's consensual but not exactly romantic, lustful rather than passionate, rough, not gentle. When it's over, Barbie has an indentation in her cheek from one of the makeup boxes – a sore point between her and Ken from that point on. The emotional wound festers, and pretty soon, she'll only have sex with him when she's drunk.
"So that's where my dysfunctional relationships began," I whisper to myself. "Barbie got cheated out of the true romance she desired, which, at some level, made her and all the real life Barbies that followed angry at Ken. And Ken failed to embrace true intimacy with women because, well, that's hard to do that when you start out mounting them from behind like a dog in heat.
Now that I know the cause of all my problems, I also know the cure. I have to get a new Ken and Barbie, and a new dollhouse, and, this time, do it right.
