Top of the News: Southaven receives fire station appraisal
Southaven has received an appraisal on a pricey leased fire station the city wants to purchase.
Mayor Greg Davis did not provide details of the appraisal at Tuesday night's Board of Aldermen meeting, but the city had been looking for someone to appraise the property since The Commercial Appeal reported early this year that the facility at Rasco and Swinnea roads could cost taxpayers $5.5 million in rent over the life of a 15-year lease.
Because of the publicity, Davis said the city had trouble finding someone to perform an appraisal.
The lease agreement — part of an unusual no-bid contract negotiated by Davis in 2008 with developers David Gary Murphy and Stephen M. Gross — requires the city to pay $30,000 a month in rent, and the city still would not own the 11,000-square-foot fire station at the end of the lease.
Murphy and Gross contributed thousands of dollars to Davis' unsuccessful 2008 congressional campaign in the months leading up to the lease-signing.
After details of the arrangement were reported in January, aldermen approved a resolution to pursue $2.7 million in general obligation bonds to purchase the facility and avoid the rent. The owners' asking price was $3.2 million, which requires the city to pay out $2.7 million because a $500,000 security deposit was paid by the city in 2008.
But for the past nine months, the deal has been on hold as the city tried to get an appraisal of the property.
Davis said he will discuss the appraisal with aldermen at their Sept. 18 meeting.
Bonds to be refinanced
Southaven officials have approved refinancing a general obligation bond and a water-sewer bond, a move that could save the city $890,000.
"You have a 2003 water and sewer bond that you are converting to a general obligation bond, and you have a 2004 general obligation bond that your are refunding. The market is in an excellent position to refund these bonds," city financial adviser Demery Grubbs told Mayor Greg Davis and aldermen Tuesday night.
Grubbs said the 2003 water and sewer bond is for $2.7 million with a current interest rate from 3.5 to 5 percent. The 2004 general obligation bond is for $2.9 million and the current rate is from 3.6 to 4 percent. Grubbs' said if the rates are reduced to 1.7 percent on the 2003 bond and 1.8 percent on the 2004, the projected total savings to the city is about $890,000 for both bonds.
"The projected annual savings on the 2003 water and sewer bond will be a savings of about $171,000, and the savings on the 2004 GO bond will be about $723,000, for a combined savings of $890,000," Grubbs said.
The seven-member board gave Grubbs approval to move forward with refinancing the bonds.
Two candidate forums scheduled
The Southaven Concerned Citizens group is sponsoring two forums for the four Mississippi senatorial candidates vying to fill former state Sen. Merle Flowers seat.
The first candidates' forum will be held at 7 p.m. Thursday at the M.R. Davis Library, 8554 Northwest Drive in Southaven. The second forum will be held Sept. 27, also at the Southaven library at 7 p.m.
Candidates Kevin Blackwell, Pat Nelson, Dr. David Parker and Mike Smith will attend, and spectators will be able to ask them questions about their bid for the state Legislature.
Flowers, who held the District 19 Senate post for nine years, resigned earlier this summer to spend more time with his family.
Earlier in the day Thursday, Parker is kicking off his "Vision for the Future" campaign with a noon rally at his Olive Branch Eyecare office at 6947 Crumpler Blvd.
The election is Nov. 6.

In this paper, we develop a decomposition model to restore blurred images with missing pixels. Our assumption is that the underlying image is the superposition of cartoon and texture components. We use the total variation norm and its dual norm to regularize the cartoon and texture, respectively. We recommend an efficient numerical algorithm based on the splitting versions of augmented Lagrangian method to solve the problem. Theoretically, the existence of a minimizer to the energy function and the convergence of the algorithm are guaranteed. In contrast to recently developed methods for deblurring images, the proposed algorithm not only gives the restored image, but also gives a decomposition of cartoon and texture parts. These two parts can be further used in segmentation and inpainting problems. Numerical comparisons between this algorithm and some state-of-the-art methods are also reported.

Donald Trump Responds to Bill Cosby!
by Delyte
posted Apr 13 2011 7:56AM
This is a letter written by Donald Trump about Bill Cosby after Bill stated on the Today show that Donald "is full of it."
ŌĆ£The other day on The Today Show, right after I was interviewed by Meredith Vieira, a terrific person and reporter, I happened to watch Bill Cosby who was on at the end of the show. While I have never been a fan of CosbyŌĆÖs, I had always assumed he liked or respected me because every time I met himŌĆöthe last time at the David Letterman show where I preceded him as a guestŌĆöhe was always so nice, saying, ŌĆśletŌĆÖs get togetherŌĆÖ ŌĆō asking me out to dinner, and being polite to the point of offering to buy me a suit because he has a ŌĆśgreat tailor.ŌĆÖŌĆØ
ŌĆ£In any event, as I watched the show, the subject of Donald Trump came up.┬Ā I was surprised to hear him blabber, somewhat incoherently, ŌĆśyou run or shut up.ŌĆÖ The hatred was pouring out of his eyes when he said this.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£As I am sure he must know I cannot run until this season of Celebrity Apprentice ends. I know that he has taken a lot of heat over the years in that he seems to be talking down to the people heŌĆÖs talking to and purportedly trying to help. Actually, based on the way he acted, things are not looking too good for Cosby.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£I wish he would be more honest, and if he doesnŌĆÖt want me to run because heŌĆÖs obviously an Obama fan, he should state the reasons and not come into my ŌĆ£green roomŌĆØ in front of numerous witnesses and treat me like his best friend, only to denigrate me when IŌĆÖm not around. Sadly, he got more attention talking about me than he did on the merits of his own appearanceŌĆömaybe he is not as dumb as I thought.ŌĆØ

AirTycoon Online
100,000 - 500,000 downloads
- Amount of stuff
- "realistic" environment
- Strategy and management fans will love it

An airline simulator
In our original review on AirTycoon we missed a mode to play online. Here it is, downloaded separately.
For your convenience, you can read below our original review on Air Tycoon 3.
Air Tycoon is a turn-based strategy game in which you manage an airline. It's both micro-management, there's a lot of micromanagement to maximize profit for every plane and terminal, from how much tickets cost to how much your staff earn; and macro-management, when you decide to cancel existing routes and open new ones.
The amount of info is huge, with several hundred real airports (yep, rush to find yours!) and airplanes, every one with its own stats and upgradeable individually. There's also people and cargo traffic, leasing options if you can't spend on brand-new planes but want not to go second-hand, a fuel market ups and downs conditioning the whole thing and more, much more.
In case it wasn't clear enough, it's a very comprehensive game, replayable many times just by changing your initial airport or strategy.
Graphics and user interface are adequate. More animations and loudspeaker voices would have been greatly welcomed, and in a macabre way, accidents and terrorism should have been an issue, too, let alone weather and natural disasters.
Anyway, recommendable for management and strategy freaks. It can be played for free for two in-game years.
If you have any problem(such as can't see the keyboard)with typing your ID & PW when register,
please try to install and use the Google Keyboard on the Google Play.

Bald Eagle Music Education Station
by JEFF SPRY Cascade A&E Feature Writer
Remember those quaint music shops where you could peruse guitar picks, sheet music and clarinet reeds while teachers instructed eager kids plunking on an old upright piano?
Well, Bald Eagle Music Education Station in downtown Sisters is that refreshing retro throwback to independent music stores of the '70s and '80s, offering private lessons, instrument sales and an impressive array of new and used musical accessories.
Owner and artistic director Rebecca French places great emphasis on innovative music instruction in a relaxed, creative environment. For weekly private instrument lessons, Bald Eagle provides classes in piano, guitar, ukulele, brass, trumpet, flute and drums, serving students of all levels and abilities, including exploration into various styles of composition and music theory at the rate of $35 per hour or $20 per half-hour.
"I opened this studio back in 2010 after I'd lost my job of 20 years and basically saw the need in our town for a place where someone could come and buy guitar strings and sheet music, and because I needed a job," French joked. "My mother had recently passed away and before she moved on she told me to open my music studio and follow my dream."
Bald Eagle is also home to TreeSpirit Instruments, selling fine-crafted, locally-made African tongue drums, cigar box electric guitars and previously-owned instruments. Expert piano tuning is another service recently offered and their free sheet music exchange includes heavy boxes of sheet music dating back to the 19th century for musicians and collectors to share, trade or locate rare and hard-to-find items.
"Our exchange library of sheet music is amazing and dates all the way back to the Civil War. Everything from gospel, boogie-woogie, all genres of classic from Baroque to modern and there's new stuff coming in all the time."
Partner Chris Patrick joined Bald Eagle Music in 2013 in the position of teacher, mentor and composer, instructing clients in flute, trumpet, guitar and bass guitar. Patrick has performed as a professional musician for over 25 years, playing French horn in the Philharmonic Orchestra and delivering a full spectrum of tunes in popular house bands playing everything from jazz, gospel, classical and old time country. His latest passion has been learning to handle the Highland Bagpipes.
"This is such an incredible music community with a strong musical base," he said. "Right now we have a vision for a brass choir with the core of it being an adult brass quintet. I'm very excited to have Trevor Craynor, the new school band instructor, in town. He plays tuba and is very enthusiastic in including students for this new community brass choir. Auditions will be later this month so check our site and Nugget News for dates."
French attended the University of Oregon School of Music from 1977 to 1980 with a focus on piano performance, music education for handicapped children and music theory. She's taught privately to more than 200 students for over 30 years with positions at the Cascade Community School of Music in Bend and the Sisters Parks and Recreation District as the music educator for pre-school kids and 7-12 age groups.
In 2008 she became music educator for Camp Sherman's Black Butte School District where she shared her vivacious love of music and energetic personality.
Another innovative program is tailored to parents and their children for kids aged two-five and may be available individually or as a group. Activities include dancing, drumming, engaged listening, singing and simple piano studies. Group guitar lessons are led by Chris Patrick at the cost of $20 per hour.
"Music as a meditation device and healing factor with its vibrational elements is so important, but those are just the intangible benefits," said Patrick. "The real goal is the total mastery of an instrument and the enjoyment of the performance. It's the reason we do music education."
Every year, students of Bald Eagle Music deliver a holiday recital, spring concert and several in-house musical events to spotlight their blooming talents and newly-learned abilities. They also participate in seasonal community events in Sisters such as the Sisters Act Talent Show, My Own Two Hands Parade, the Sisters Holiday Parade and Sisters Rodeo Parade.
"I've worked with so many children and the one constant is seeing the kids blossom with the joy of music," said French."Teachers are noticing improved behavior, attendance and higher academic scores after just a few months of lessons with us. We're all about reaching for the sky and finding the stars."

Clearwater Gallery Features Dan Rickards' Annual Print Give Away for 2014
This year marks the 12th annual print giveaway, an event that has become an anticipated weekend for Clearwater Gallery and the Central Oregon community. Clearwater gallery owners Dan and Julia Rickards have carried out a Sisters Harvest Faire tradition of offering complimentary signed and numbered fine art prints that began as a Cascade Range series, displaying a variety of landscapes featuring our mountain ranges and well-known destinations around Central Oregon.
Last year Dan transitioned into his National Park collection, debuting his explorations with the breathtaking slice of Yosemite, Unfolding Light. This year's continuation of the series will feature a glimpse of the highly acclaimed Redwood National Park, established in 1968.
When Dan and Julia ventured to the Redwoods this past July, the serenity and towering stature of the miles of ancient trees is an experience that Rickards seeks to capture in this year's release. Rickards explains, "My mission is to represent the parks to the best of my ability. To paint realism in a way that is inspiring but yet highly representational of people's own experiences; bringing them back to the moment when they were there."
This year's print giveaway will take place Saturday, October 11 at 10am. The Rickards will be at Clearwater Gallery signing the first 150 complimentary prints. Attend this annual event and learn more about the vision and passion behind the National Park collection.
The first 150 people will receive a complimentary fine art print. www.theclearwatergallery.com
Gordon & Kay Baker at Sisters Gallery
Husband and wife painters, Gordon and Kay Baker, will be featured at Sisters Gallery and Frame Gallery Shop for one month, opening on the Fourth Friday in September Art Stroll in Sisters. Oregon and More will feature landscape painting of Central Oregon as well as other areas they have visited.
Kay and Gordon moved to Bend in 1995 after Gordon's retirement from a major oil company. He is a geologist, environmentalist and artist. Nature is the common denominator and painting brings it all together. "My oil paintings reflect who I am; a summation of a life-time of experiences."
Kay has a bachelor of arts in advertising and art, and has taken classes from many well-known artists. She works in oil and pastel and is primarily a landscape painter. "I want the viewer of my paintings to sense the emotions I experience when I am painting."
They are both members of the Oil Painters of America and the Plein Air Painters of Oregon as well as other professional organizations. Their paintings are in collections throughout the United States and Europe.
Sisters Gallery and Frame Shop, 252 West Hood Ave, Sisters. Opening Fourth Friday Art Stroll, September26, 4-7pm, 541-549-9552
Mother Earth Newest Sculpture Created for Downtown Sisters
Story by JEFF SPRY for Cascade A&E, see video by Joe Leonardi
In a creative blizzard of white wood chips, master chainsaw sculptor and world-class artist Skip Armstrong conjured up the spirit of Mother Earth during the Oak Street Block Party in downtown Sisters on June 20. The medium was a canted, 12-foot pine tree trunk left over from a tree-trimming procedure last Spring between The Clearwater Gallery and Sisters Coffee Company.
Residents and visitors gathered to sample coffees and teas and watch the wizardry of Armstrong as he transformed the bare Ponderosa pine tree into a majestic embodiment of nature with chainsaws, Dremel tools and a wildly potent imagination.
Elegantly created in the style of old-fashioned sailing ship figureheads, the nude goddess gazes into the sky, adorned and enveloped in owls, wolves, cougars, otters and a butterfly.
"I call it She's Cloaked in Wisdom as a nod to the wise owls," said Armstrong, stopping his wood-shaving machines for a moment to regard his inspiring sculpture. "She's a personification of Mother Earth as a sort of Gaia princess and the beautiful Earth Ship we're living on.
"It's also the wisdom born in nature and the wildness we need to preserve. I'm going to leave it chainsaw-rough and let it emerge from the tree. I may even toss in a fish or two to cover all the basic phyla of our Earth and all of its passengers."
Armstrong spent over 16 hours manifesting the awe-inspiring statue as onlookers marveled at the detail and design of his impressive Mother Earth. The project was partially funded and supported by The Clearwater Gallery and Sisters Coffee Company. When completed, the pine sculpture was finished with multiple coats of a basic transparent oil to seal, protect and preserve the natural color.
"I wanted to bring us back to Nature a little bit, after being so inundated with technology and electronic gadgets," he explained. "Leaning the way the tree was leaning, it worked out perfectly imagined as the bowsprit figurehead of an old sailing vessel. We're all sailing on this same Earth Ship."
See video by Joe Leonardi: http://www.cascadeae.com/regional-art/sisters/2510-cloaked-in-wisdom-and-wildness-
Master Chainsaw Artist J.Chester "Skip" Armstrong created a sculpture from an uprooting Ponderosa Pine. Skip donated the work to his Hometown Sisters, Oregon.
This is a short doc. by Joe Leonardi of Armstrong's carving process and the community event that was spontaineously held around it.
Birds in the Garden at Sisters Art Works
Birds In the Garden, a fun and color filled visual experience in Sisters, brings together four artists working in watercolor, ceramic tile, mosaic and fused glass. It's a celebration of our feathered friends and gardening on the High Desert.... and it's colorful.
Every year Kathy Deggendorfer, owner of Sisters Art Works, invites her favorite artist friends to fill the Entry Gallery with wonderful artwork. This year she's pulled her favorite "flock" together and she's chirping with excitement.
Watercolor artist Deggendorfer has created a whole flock of new images featuring chickadees and bluebirds. She spent all winter working on new tile designs specifically for this show featuring birds from her Sisters area garden. Her original watercolor paintings will be available as well as the tiles derived from them.
"My paintings are full of detail...layers and layers of dots and squares," says Deggendorfer. "It is very fun to do tile because they are simple and direct -- just the color blocking of the birds and foliage but with a real attention to what makes that bird unique. I really love the pieces done on terra cotta tile...they just resonate with me."
The show welcomes back Jenelle Kathan, a fused glass artist from the Portland area [moonbeamglassworks.com]. Deggendorfer found Jenelle's work during an open studio project in Portland a few years ago and explains, "Others do fused glass, but nobody does it quite like Jenelle. She is a creative, innovative artist who really knows her medium. She is always searching for new methods and applications. An astute collector will get a new piece every year."
Rochelle Rose Schueler of Bend has just burst on the scene with her colorful ceramic mosaics [wildroseartworks.com]. A real Renaissance woman, Rochelle can do it all...and does says Deggendorfer. "Her background in engineering gives her an advantage and enables her to execute beautiful and functional artwork that works on every level. The stepping stones and garden bench she has in the show were poured in her own custom-built concrete forms. Just back from intensive training in public art mosaic installation in San Francisco and New Orleans, Rochelle has created some truly wonderful bird-themed pieces for the show."
Sisters area artist Susanne Redfield, owner of Kibak Tile, has created some unique, hand-painted tiles just for this show. Redfield is the creative force behind her successful tile company and is known for her simple stylized tile designs that grace the homes of the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow.
"We are thrilled to include some of her original work in this show," concludes Deggendorfer.
Sisters Artwork s Entry Gallery, 204 West Adams Avenue. Through August 15, artist reception: 3:30-6:30pm July 9, M-F, 10am-5pm or by appointment, 541-420-9695

I'm sitting here watching the MSM go crazy about Newt staying in the race. How it helps Romney, makes no sense and he has no chance at the nomination etc.
Newt and Rick……there is little doubt, that in order to stop Romney, one needs to get out of the race. From my perspective, Newt has more experience, is more dynamic,
Contrary to popular belief, I am beginning to think the race could come down to these two. Romney is one more gaffe (poor, severely etc) or disappointing finish from being

I think you are selling Newt short. There is no candidate who can better articulate conservative principles like individual responsibility, getting government out of the way, lower taxes and liberty

Oni publicity guy John Schork has left, as announced in a model of grown-upness via social media
Hey everyone, just a quick note, Oni Press and I have decided to part ways mutually and amicably.
— SCHOOOOOOOOOOOOOORK! (@SchorkWeek) November 20, 2014
I had a great time and made a lot of great friends there, but I'm excited to pursue new opportunities.
— SCHOOOOOOOOOOOOOORK! (@SchorkWeek) November 20, 2014
And I still advocate that you buy absolutely every goddamn thing they publish!
— SCHOOOOOOOOOOOOOORK! (@SchorkWeek) November 20, 2014
Schork who has also worked at Dark Horse and IDW, joined Oni about a year ago as Director of Publicity. He was a pal on the convention circuit and it was always a pleasure working with him, so hopefully we'll see him at the next stop.
Perhaps this will kick off a new round of publicity musical chairs? Also, DC is hiring.
I always assume that, as a marketing guy, no one really cares which company I work for any given minute. I'm glad you do, Heidi! :)

Listen to Today's Proverb
An excellent devotional tool for gaining wisdom is to listen to a chapter of Proverbs each day for a whole month. Proverbs is divided into 31 chapters and each day we will feature the chapter that corresponds to today's date. Taken from the Listener's Bible (NIV 1984), narrated by Max McLean.
Daily Proverb Pod Cast
Today is November 23
Listen to Proverbs 23
|Read along:
1 When you sit to dine with a ruler,
2 and put a knife to your throat
3 Do not crave his delicacies,
4 Do not wear yourself out to get rich;
5 Cast but a glance at riches, and they are gone,
6 Do not eat the food of a stingy man,
7 for he is the kind of man
8 You will vomit up the little you have eaten
9 Do not speak to a fool,
10 Do not move an ancient boundary stone
11 for their Defender is strong;
12 Apply your heart to instruction
13 Do not withhold discipline from a child;
14 Punish him with the rod
15 My son, if your heart is wise,
16 my inmost being will rejoice
17 Do not let your heart envy sinners,
18 There is surely a future hope for you,
19 Listen, my son, and be wise,
20 Do not join those who drink too much wine
21 for drunkards and gluttons become poor,
22 Listen to your father, who gave you life,
23 Buy the truth and do not sell it;
24 The father of a righteous man has great joy;
25 May your father and mother be glad;
26 My son, give me your heart
27 for a prostitute is a deep pit
28 Like a bandit she lies in wait,
29 Who has woe? Who has sorrow?
30 Those who linger over wine,
31 Do not gaze at wine when it is red,
32 In the end it bites like a snake
33 Your eyes will see strange sights
34 You will be like one sleeping on the high seas,
35 "They hit me," you will say, "but I'm not hurt!
Other ways you might enjoy hearing God's spoken Word.

Realflex wraps serve to warm and light riders' arms and legs

Fluorescent lights are one of those things that you see everywhere, but that nobody likes. They flicker, they hum, they produce a rather unattractive light, plus they're fragile and contain toxic substances. They may also be on their way out – scientists from North Carolina's Wake Forest University have created a new form of lighting that they say could be used in the same large-scale applications as fluorescent bulbs, but that lacks their shortcomings. Read More
Spark smartens up any standard light socket
The common thing amongst the various smart light bulbs we've seen recently, such as the Lumen, Philips hue, LIFX and INSTEON, is that all the enabling wireless technology is built into the bulbs themselves. This means that when the bulb inevitably fails, you're faced with replacing the whole expensive kit and caboodle. Spark overcomes this problem by separating the expensive wireless components from the bulb, thereby allowing a standard bulb to be connected to the internet. Read More
Zurich's Micasa Lab, the team responsible for the iRock and Cocoon 1, has developed yet another off-the-wall concept with the Nebula 12.

This is a charming idea. The Good Night Lamp is actually a set of table lamps that you distribute among friends or family.

The lounges and lobbies of San Francisco's W Hotel have taken a turn for the futuristic, incorporating variable tint "dynamic glass" courtesy of California-based start-up View. View Dynamic Glass, as the company calls its particular brand, alters in tint to reduce the amount of heat and light passing through. Tint can be changed on demand (with an iPhone app, if you like, GigaOM reports); or the process can be automated – allowing View to dub its technology an "intelligent glass system." Read More
Net zero: put together, they're two of the buzzwords of contemporary building design. Sometimes the phrasing's a little different. ZNE, or zero net energy, is one variation; zero-energy building is another. They're all the same thing, though: buildings designed to offset their energy consumption over the course of a year, every year. Work has commenced on one such project, a 444-student primary school on Staten Island, New York, designed by architects at SOM and engineers at AKF. Read More
Just last month we looked at the LIFX Wi-Fi enabled, multi-color LED light bulb that could be controlled via a smartphone. With 16 days still to go, the Kickstarter project has exceeded its US$100,000 funding goal 13-fold, suggesting there might just be a market for these things. Looking to claim its own slice of this pie, Philips has just flicked the switch on its own somewhat similar offering called hue. Read More
With the increasing focus on sustainable urban transport comes an increasing call for proper safety infrastructure and products.

Added Feb 5, 2013
Tokyo, Japan
The pattern is Merckwaerdigh BHS10 pattern. It contains a mix of 5 different bras, including soft bra, racerback bra, soft lace bra, underwired bra, and a padded bra. It is wonderful that you get 5 bra in one!
This red stretch lace was harvested from an H&M top bought on sale for USD3. I bought the largest size so I can have as much fabric as I can. In fact I still have enough fabric for another bra.
I'm quite happy with the result. This lace bralette is comfortable to wear at home but it is also quite (very!) transparent. I'm planning to make several more in comfortable cotton jersey.

About John Clothier
we are both retired and wanted a second home in spain without giving up our ties in England.
John Clothier purchased this house in 2004
Why John Clothier chose Santiago de la Ribera
we wanted a home in spain that would be part of an established town but close to the coast and all amenities. Our house enables us to enjoy this little known region but is peaceful and part of the local community
What makes this house unique
home from home with all you need just around the corner. Close to Murcia airport but not on flight path. Very secluded solarium if you just want to enjoy the sun and chill!.Alternatively enjoy the large pool with separate children's area. Why not relax with a book on the balcony to the main bedroom

Few Options for Working Poor in States that Block Medicaid Expansion
Collins says that 29% of people who would qualify for subsidized coverage saw an income change from 2011 to 2012 that dropped their income below 100% of the poverty level, meaning they would no longer qualify for subsidized coverage through the marketplaces. Another 12% of those earning between 133% and 249% of poverty in 2011 also experienced an income change that lowered their earnings to less than the poverty level in 2012.
In contrast, 30% of people with incomes below 100% of poverty had an income gain that would have made them eligible for subsidized coverage.
The study calls on states to accept the Medicaid expansion. In the likely event that they do not, at least in the near term, Collins says Congress could pass legislation that would allow those making less than 100% of the federal poverty level, who are not eligible for Medicaid, to be eligible for subsidized coverage through the state marketplaces.
Such legislation would be unlikely to clear the Republican-controlled U.S. House, which has voted 40 times to repeal the PPACA.

Thank you for disseminating the work of the Commonwealth Fund. Their work on the ACA provides some of the most in depth comprehensive analysis available, and emerges from a place where health care is itself a value, rather than merely a commodity. I'd like to think that the definition of poverty you share with your readers would itself be unsettling to health care providers. That we would, as a society, knowingly withhold health care from these, the least fortunate among us, stuns me. The 40 House votes to repeal the ACA without offering an alternative is not a statement about political ideology; it is a statement about moral choice.

I used to run FOG on CentOS 5.3 (which was then upgraded to 5.4) ontop of Citrix XenServer.
Hi there,
does anyone use FOG within a virtual XenServer environment? If so what version of Linux did you use?
Basically I can't get any vitual Linux machines to boot up at all!
I used to run FOG on CentOS 5.3 (which was then upgraded to 5.4) ontop of Citrix XenServer.
bodminman (19th October 2010)
Sounds like you may not have installed the linux guest support pack for xenserver.
2nd download button here: Citrix XenServer Downloads
Just double checked and the Linux guest pack is installed. I've downloaded the CentOS DVD iso and tried installing this. This gets further than the Ubuntu install but after selecting the language, I'm then propted to where I want to update the modules from? What modules, I'm installing from a DVD!?!?!
I'm running FOG, on Debian Lenny, on XenServer and i've had no issues so far. I downloaded the Debian install disc from here:
Debian Lenny » XenServer - Citrix Community
bodminman (20th October 2010)
Do you have a proxy?
If you do, have you set the settings as mentioned in this post. Run apt-get update as root (to update the package lists) then try installing fog again.
Are you executing installfog.sh as root?
Have you defintely got internet access to download the packages and if you made the VM behind a proxy you'll have to check the that you have the correct repositories as the installer doesn't like the lack of internet access.
To let apt access the internet I normally give the proxy settings directly by making a file called /etc/apt/apt.conf which contains:
Acquire {
Retries "0";
Proxy "http://proxyroxyport";

Thats proxy -colon- proxyport e.g. myproxy:8080. Not a smiley face.
to execute stuff as root on debian, you can either log in as root or configure sudo (and another link here)
Or you can type su, then when prompted enter the root password, then run the installer.
bodminman (23rd October 2010), computer_expert (22nd October 2010)
I have set the Debian box to bypass the proxy to get out to the web.
There are 2 options at the start of the FOG install and they are to select either Fedora/CentOS or Unbuntu and something else. I have selected Fedora/Centos. Is this correct?
I am executing installfog.sh as root.
Now reinstalled Debian and ensured Web Server was selected as an install option and now when running installfog.sh things are looking more prommissing.
Now it is sitting at : Installing package: php5
and has been for about 30 minutes.
You need to select the Ubuntu option (Debian is what ubuntu is based on) in the fog setup. I've successfully installed fog on a debian box using the ubuntu selection in the installer.
Centos/fedora uses the Yum package manager whereas debian/ubuntu use apt-get. If you choose the fedora/centos option (on a debian based system) in fog then the reason why it hangs while trying to download the packages is because the YUM package manager doesn't exist on debian based distros.
I have restarted the installation of FOG using Ubuntu as the main selection.
I defo hve internet access as I'm responding to this post whilst logged onto the Debian box.

You don't need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself." Thich Nhat Hanh *Yoga is a path which cultures the body and senses, refines the mind, civilizes the intelligence, and takes rest in the soul which is the core of our being. B.K.S Iyengar
Dharmaheart Yoga Classes are traditional Mindful Yoga Practice. Hatha Yoga is the Ancient Art of Mind, Body & Breath Balance, where one learns to synchronize the Mind, Body and Breath with each Asana or Posture flowing in harmony with each other in the stillness and presence of Just Being.
The word Hatha is made up of two Sanskrit roots, Ha and Tha, Ha means SUN and Tha means MOON the inner balance.
Find your Balance & Inner Peace with Yoga
Balancing Doing & Being. We can spend most of our lives doing and doing and doing more doing. But when do we make the time to relax and improve our health, fitness and well-being, to balance the doing and doing with a presence of Being. When do we make the time for ourselves, to completely relax, unwind and re-energize, which naturally releasing tightness or tension from the body and mind, that we may have accumulated in our doing, doing day.
When or Where do we make the time to renew the mind, body & vital energy, that we need to keep the doing, doing going? We can make this time for ourselves by practicing Yoga. Yoga is your own special time for You!
In Yoga practice we are simply learning to balance the Mind, Body and Breath with the flow of movement, shifting from endlessly over doing and doing, to consciously "paying attention" to one moment at a time, doing one thing at a time, one step at a time, which naturally calms, bringing mental and physical relief, moving from contraction to openness, by continuing to apply and practice the yoga approach "One step at a time" we naturally improve and balance the way we approach our doing, doing day.
Yoga Practice Improve Inner BalanceHealth and Wellbeing, Mindfulness & Concentration, Flexibility & Muscle Tone, Core Strengthen & Postural Alignment, Restoration & Physical Balance, Improved Circulation, Lymphatic Drainage, Energy Flow & Relaxation, while at the same time Yogic Breathing & (Pranayama) Restores and Re-balances the natural Rhythm and Flow of the breath, naturally calming and anchoring the mind, enabling Mental Stability and Clarity to be present. "We may think that we will be Happy when we are successful. But success arrives when we are Happy & Contented." The Buddha.

Feeling lost, he turns to a disastrous string of online dates that successively eat away at his already-deteriorating confidence until a lanky vampire turns him into an undead ladykiller. Soon, Eric is prowling the streets of Brooklyn in search of anything to satisfy both his maniacal sex drive and his hunger for blood.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I attended Floridas Institute of Technology from Jan. 15th, 2010 to July 15th, 2010. I was enrolled in their undergraduate Information Technology program.
Students enrolled within the program were required to complete all assignments and upload it to Cengage. Cengage extolls itself as being a firm that delivers highly customized learning solutions for universities, instructors, students, libraries, government agencies and corporations.
However, a lot of students, just like me, were receiving zeros even when the instructions were closely followed and subsequently uploaded to Cengage, a platform entirely separate from Florida Institute. Additionally, when grading
glitches emerged, only a mere tepid response was given to correct the technical situation. Instead, there was an apparent rush to legitimize the obviously faulty Cengage grading system and passively place the blame upon the shoulders of the
students. This act alone is thoroughly the antithesis of a democratic solution. Grading students from the premise of an un-flawless system is more in line with an authoritarian apparatchik.
Instead of voiding the defamatory grades and providing a solution to the existing technical problems at that time, Cengage and Florida institute chose to ignore these problems. This also flies in the face of Cengages learning and research solutions
and Florida Institutes providing support services stated missions. These are incongruent reasons as to why I should, or any student for that matter, accept the grades that were given by a faulty grading system that wasnt under the control and operation of the students chosen university.
Even further, I contacted Florida Institute this morning (1.16.2013) and they still have my transcript placed in a holding status. But yet, they gave Capella University a copy of my transcript that defames me without even as much of a mere cursory explanation behind the low grades that I received while attending that university. Florida Institute cannot have it both ways.
Moreover, prior to withdrawing from Florida Institute, I spoke with my Professor, Brian Ehrlich at that time regarding leaving the school and applying elsewhere. He gave me specific instructions as to when to withdraw and on what date. I withdrew on the date he suggested. But yet, I was still told by the admissions office a short while later that I somehow still owed the university a monetary balance.
For the reasons enumerated above, are in fact the reasons why Florida Institute of Technologys transcript should be exempt while considering my admissions to XXXXXX University.
