2 users both running AutoCAD MEP2012 on Win7 Pro 64 bit systems. Printing to older HP DesignJet 500 through local USB port on one system, shared to other system. Users are getting lines across the page whenever print solids. Does not have the problem when printing 2dy frame (hope this makes sense, I don't use the software, just trying to find a solution to the problem). DJ is installed as HP DJ500 42 + HPGL2 card, driver is latest per HP website, HP DJ Printer Driver v7.10. Lines do not show up in Print Preview. Did not have this problem with 2011 version, showed up when they updated to 2012 version.
All guidance and suggestions welcome!
This missing linework issue was addressed with 2012 service pack 2. Install SP-2 and type this at the command line: HIDEPRECISION = 1. The system variable opens up the plot memory storage to use higher precision values which helps it discern one line from another. They do not occlude each other when close together. They reappear.
Hope this helps.

Scraping cheap airline tickets
It all started with a bet long time ago. One of my friends couldn't believe that it is actually possible nowadays to travel around the world with low-cost airlines.
Because the term low-cost airline is difficult to define we have agreed that we should bet on something easy to check - like the ticket price per kilometer. After some rough checks the bet was on: travel around the world, flying always in one direction (west or east) for less than €0.03 (3 euro cents) per kilometer (imagine Bologna-New York trip for less than €180).
I think I won. With some python help and many hours of coding I was able to find all the necessary tickets and stay below the price criterion. I have learnt a lot about airlines sales strategy... and something about ant colony optimization algorithm. The trip starts on November 15th, maybe you will meet me in the following months ;-)
Now the long story. Searching for cheap plane ticket is relatively easy task if you have strict dates and simple route (one or two stops). It starts to be more complicated if you want to stop in 3 places. But what if you have 6 stops or more? None of the existing online tools allows you to make such a query (if you know one - let me know). Things get more fuzzy if you don't have specific dates and just want to travel cheap. Searching manually is not an option: ticket price is likely to change daily and number of possible queries is quite big, I mean really big. Imagine you want to take 5 stops and search with margin of ± 10 days. It gives you 9765625 queries (5^10). Grabbing that data directly from airline database is also not doable. There is no standard approach, most of the small companies have their own system - others use providers that are much too expensive for a single user.
Sooner or later you will start to write a script.

How to write a good documentation - The big Plan
Earlier this year I had a perfect chance to participate to a sprint where the organization of documentation was the main purpose. Here it is what I learned
From ideas to reality
As you may know, what leads an open source project to the glory it's a well-written, clear and accessible documentation. This is more and more true as we are leaving the first era of internet where the technology was the king and we are entering the era where technology is just a tool that provides features and everything is more black boxed.

Come creare l'ambiente di sviluppo per le vostre applicazioni AngularJS
L'ecosistema di applicazioni che si crea attorno ad un framework è determinante per il suo successo. Vediamo assieme come creare l'ambiente giusto per AngularJS
Basta una semplice ricerca in rete per rendersi conto di quanto rapidamente si stiano diffondendo i framework JavaScript ispirati al pattern MVC, segno evidente di un WEB in continua evoluzione.
AngularJS tra questi è sicuramente uno dei più interessanti e attivi, probabilmente grazie anche alla sponsorizzazione di Google.

Wild, Wild West: Blacktomato Offers Luxury Frontier Package
September 21, 2011
By: Christopher Roney
Think back to childhood. Picture yourself chasing after your friends, finger cocked into the shape of a pistol. "Bang, bang. I got you! You're dead!" you'd yell, but your friends would never just fall down. They'd have a million reasons why not: "You missed me!" or "I've got armor!" or "I'm superman – bullets don't hurt me!" or "Nuh uh!" You probably wrestled a bit until Mom told you to come inside and have your dinner already, it was getting cold.
Remember that? Now you get a chance to bring those childhood afternoons spent playing "Cowboys and Indians" to life. Blacktomato has created a 12-night luxury tour to showcase the modern Wild West adventure. Travel the edge of the Grand Canyon, wrangle cattle, and visit the most awe-inspiring of desert oases. It's so authentic you might forget when you're out in the wilds that you're not spending your nights in a small, sweltering tent, but instead getting refreshed and rejuvenated at some of the world's most prestigious hotels. They suggest, as we do, that you spend at least part of your stay at the Amangiri, a secluded resort so built to blend into the landscape that you'll think it's a mirage. Unlike most vacation packages, which offer you a set itinerary, Blacktomato recognizes that you want to take control of your own destiny, and their 12-night package is nothing more than a suggestion for things to see and do as you explore the western frontier:
- • Begin at Las Vegas and experience the strip in all its neon-bathed glory.
- • Leave the city to explore the rugged, scenic vistas of the Grand Canyon.
- • Continue on to the hidden desert oasis of Amangiri.
- • Experience the majestic red rock formations at the Enchantment Resort.
- • Live the life of a cowboy at the Tanque Verde Ranch.
Blacktomato will work with you to craft the perfect journey through America's wildest of regions, and trust us; you can't go wrong.

I setup a local smtp server on one of our servers and redirect from office 365 through that.
Hi I am trying to configure our veeam backup server to send me info about the backup jobs and errors etc. I am having problems with configuring office365 and veeam. I just cant get it to communicate and work.
Does anybody have this working with office365 and veeam smtp?
Kind Regards
I setup a local smtp server on one of our servers and redirect from office 365 through that.
I have tried to do this however when I put the ip address in the field it gets rejected. I have also put smtp.servername, is this correct?
Thanks for your help.
Not exactly sure on veeem but hopefully it will have an option for user authentication to SMTP.
create an account in 365.
you will need the name of your outlook365 server ( do an mx lookup for your domain to find it. )
In the veeme e-mail settings , enter the server name you just found and the username and password you just created.
That should do it so long as veeam has the required settings.
You can also just setup a temporary gmail account for this. Its what I have done in the past.

Really looking for some help here. This is my first attempt ever at making Hard Cider.
Within a day of mixing my cider, malt sugar and yeast I had fermentation. Went great for a week, then I noticed slowing in the bubbling. Now it has completely stopped. I was concerned about the temperature, so I took a reading and it was near 90 degrees. Have I damaged the yeast? Do I need to cool it all the way down and start again? Add more yeast? I could use any help from the veterans.
it may not be stopped but done. what does your hygrometer say??? at 90º you may have fermented out all the sugar in a week.
I don't have a hygrometer. Like I said, still new. Not really sure all the supplies I need. IF the sugar is fermented out, does that effect the process? Is it done or do I need to add another step to get back on track? Thanks for the help.
I'd say it's done heat might of worked the ueast like a champ
you need to get a hygrometer to know for sure, good news is it won't cost you more than $10.00. how does it taste?? If it is done you can bottle it still and dry,prime and bottle carbonate (still dry), stabilize and back sweeten (sweet but still), OR you can back sweeten bottle carb and then pasteurize to end up with a sweet carbonated beverage.
For the next batch, I wouldn't let it get anywhere near 90 degrees. For comparison, I ferment in the low 60's.
I think a lot of wine yeasts have a fermentation range up close to 90º F (at least mid 80s) I think lalvin even has a strain that can withstand temps up to mid 90s. If you don't have any way to reduce the ambient temps for making cider, I'd probably opt for a wine yeast that's better suited for higher temps. By using a yeast with a temp range of say 55ºF - 75ºF, you might get some off flavors at 15+º over the suggested range.
That all said...you might end up with a beverage you are very happy with regardless.
I can understand the need to ferment at high temps for those living in some warmer climates, but the OP is fermenting in Washington in January. Shouldn't be too difficult to ferment at a lower temp.

Portland Fire and Rescue captain Bob Hutchens has managed to rack up three DUI arrests, but he's still on the job.
The most recent involved a crash that sent two people to the hospital when they say he ran them off the road.
That wreck was on highway 26 in Clatsop County; the car carrying the hospitalized people rolled multiple times downhill and was destroyed. But good ol' Bob's still on the job. Sleep well, knowing that the captain will be there for you.
City Council member Dan Saltzman is in charge of PDFR, and he's "closely following" the case; Bob's due in court early next year. Dan says that "if discipline is warranted", it'll be handed out. Makes you feel all warm, doesn't it - sort of like peeing in a wetsuit?

A Waukesha man was arrested for a sixth offense of drunken driving in the town of Brookfield on Sept. 5, according to a town of Brookfield police report.
Also in the report:
The 44-year-old was stopped at the intersection of Moreland Boulevard and Kossow Road just after 3.30 p.m. when an officer noticed that license plates on the vehicle he was driving didn't match its description.
An officer who made contact with the man smelled alcohol. The man failed field sobriety tests, and a preliminary test revealed a blood-alcohol content of 0.12.
He also was cited for driving without a license.

Hi: 7° Lo:-2°
By Jamie Arrowsmith Monday 08 October 2012 Updated: 11/10 17:05
DROITWICH Amateur Boxing Club's Michael 'Buller' Pardoe will top the bill at his club's Dinner Tournament at the Chateau Impney Hotel on Friday, October 19.
Current Midlands Welterweight Champion Pardoe, who has recently been crowned Wychavon Sports Personality of the Year, will take on Stoke's Nathan Heaney, a veteran of over 70 contests, in what promises to be a thrilling battle.
The tournament is being staged by Droitwich Amateur Boxing Club with the support of the Rotary Club of Droitwich Spa and is to raise funds for their New Building Appeal.
The club is having to move from its present premises where it has been based for the past 30 years and is raising funds for a new purpose-built gym on the King George's Playing Fields site.
Other Droitwich senior boxers featured on the night will include Aaron Beckford, 25, Anthony Badams, 26, and Shawn Hewlett, 17. Midlands Schools Champion Mikey O'Toole, 14, heads up a cast of promising juniors.
"It is early in the season to be holding a home tournament," commented secretary Chris Andrews.
"But the boxers are up for it and we are praying for a sell-out crowd. Unfortunately star prospects Scott Kirby and Harry Butler are tied up in Championships and may not be boxing, but it will give some of the club's less experienced members an opportunity."
Tickets, which include a three-course meal, a comedian, eight to ten bouts and a band, cost £35 each (tables are available for six to ten persons) and can be obtained from Chris on 07961 375903 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Admission to the boxing only, will be available on the night at £10 per person.

A prominent integrative doctor in Austin, TX tells this story: "A 50-year old female patient of mine had not had an orgasm in two years. After taking Neo40 Daily for 2 weeks, she had one and has continued to have them since." The doctor had not suggested Neo40 Daily to his patient for sexual dysfunction - he recommended it for circulation and blood pressure maintenance. But circulation is circulation - and clitoral blood flow is necessary for orgasms. Of course there are many variables in the orgasm equation. But proper circulation is THE physiological necessity for orgasm to occur. The responsible mechanism in Neo40 is the ability to promote production of nitric oixde. As you probably know, erectile dysfunction drugs such as Cialis affect the downstream production of nitric oxide, enhancing penile circulation. But nitric oxide controls ALL circulation - maintaining a healthy cardiovascular system and blood flow to every bodily function.
As we age, we become less able to produce nitric oxide naturally, which contributes to increased risk for heart disease but also the massive number of sexual performance issues in older adults. Many people believe that l-arginine supplements can generate nitric oxide production, but unfortunately it is only efficacious in young, healthy adults. If you are over 40, you have lost the ability to convert l-arginine into nitric oxide. But given the proper nutrients, our aging bodies can begin to produce nitric oxide again - nutrients like those found in Neo40 Daily. Could you benefit from increased nitric oxide production? One way to find out is Neogenis Test Strips - the first and only saliva test for nitric oxide levels. For more information on nitric oxide and Neo40 Daily, visit www.neogenis.com.

Nitric Oxide (not to be confused with nitrous oxide) is a very simple but important molecule that can actually determine how long you live and the quality of your life. Nitric Oxide is made by the blood vessels' lining, or endothelium. The endothelium is extremely sensitive to the physical and chemical conditions inside our blood vessels. When the endothelium senses heart-healthy conditions, such as physical activity and low cholesterol, it releases more Nitric Oxide. And that's very good for...

Micro-Needle Dermal Roller Use in the Treatment Room
Recently micro-needle dermal rollers have been getting a lot of media attention.

Are You Ignoring the 10,000-Hour Rule?

Energywork: A Powerful Complement to Massage
By Ariel Hubbard
You are a giving a massage treatment to one of your clients, and while working a particularly tight area, you feel a heavy energy flow up from the client's body and out through your head.What is this energy? And how does it make you feel? You've felt this energy before and have noticed that you respond to this experience by becoming fatigued. You decide to ask some friends about it, and they suggest you have a session with an energyworker.
You begin your session and feel completely relaxed. Suddenly, the feeling in the room changes, and you feel a strong sense of love and peace. You look up and see that your energywork therapist is passing her hands around your body, and you feel her touch even though she isn't touching you. You blink - still, her hands are not touching you, but something is happening. You feel emotion rise up in you like a tide, and then you feel a heaviness wash away. You feel lighter than you have in years.
What is energywork? This is a general term for a collection of healing modalities that use positive energy to promote healing in your body, heart, mind and spirit. The energywork therapist recognizes that there is electromagnetic energy flowing around and through the body in very specific currents (called meridians in China and nadis - pronounced "na-dees" - in India) and through the energy field around the body (the aura). When those currents are interrupted, they create an imbalance or blockage in the flow, and if allowed to persist for long enough periods, can create pain and even disease.
When you address the energetic balance and when the root of the problem is fully addressed, blockages release and health returns. People who provide energywork recognize that the body, heart, mind and spirit are connected and that each aspect of us influences the others. If there are imbalances on one level, they may appear also on another level. A physical problem in the body may lead to emotional problems and vice versa.
In energywork, we don't use the word "cure" because we recognize that the recipient is the person doing the healing. Energyworkers pass through healing energy to assist in raising their frequencies, but recipients receive the energy and use it to heal themselves. Energyworkers who are properly trained do not allow themselves to become tired by trying to send their own life force energy to help their clients; rather, they send Universal life force energy.
In a typical energywork session, the energywork therapist learns about the client and events in their life that could possibly affect the energy flow. After assessing the client, the energyworker prepares to send healing energy by centering and grounding him/herself. This allows access to high-vibrational frequencies that he/she will send to the client.
The client's energy system and physical body respond to these frequencies through what is called "energetic field resonance;" it increases in vibration to match the frequencies being transmitted by the practitioner. The client's cells have access to more energy, and this energy gives the cells the ability to expunge toxins from the body, whether physical or emotional. The client experiences what is called a "release," which can come in the form of laughter, perspiration, coughing or deep relaxation. The therapist then sends energy to help the client adjust to the changes after the release occurs, charge the client with life force energy (also called chi or prana), and to harmonize their system. Clients usually feel full of energy, relaxed, happy and peaceful after the energywork session.
Often energywork can address pain that never seems to go away, or hurt feelings that seem to linger in ways that physically oriented therapies cannot. Many therapists combine energywork with massage sessions to balance out the treatment. Some clients who have been in psychotherapy have reported that energywork sessions helped them resolve issues that had never been resolved after years of therapy because the root of the problem was addressed by accessing parts of them that were nonphysical.
Energywork has some marvelous applications, there are some amazing areas where we have seen energywork successfully handle issues like overcoming fear, speeding recovery from surgery, healing pain over lost loved ones, healing during radiation or chemo treatments, releasing intense negative emotions, and helping clients reinstate their trust. This cutting-edge modality will be used more and more in combination with more conventional medical treatments in the years ahead. One modality, Reiki, is currently used in or referred by 50 major hospitals across the U.S.*
Massage therapists can really benefit from using energywork in addition to their massage techniques. Clients release energy, often continuously, throughout the massage. People store their emotions, memories, beliefs and thoughts in their energy system, and massage allows them to come up to be released. That is why many massage therapists feel fatigue when working with clients - it is not because of the physical exertion; rather, it is because they are unconsciously trying to process the energetic release of their clients. When energywork is used in conjunction with massage, this processing can be done consciously, and the massage therapist does not expend personal life force energy. That is key because massage is a demanding profession. This combination of modalities also creates a powerful healing session for the client. Using energywork also boosts the massage therapist's energy level and has the ability to extend a therapist's career.
There are many types of energywork and they all have a different approach, including Reiki, HighSelf Resonance therapy, jin shin, pranic healing, crystal healing, color healing, shamanic healing, homeopathy and network chiropractic. Many of these traditions are new, but some are very old. Energywork has been used all over the world for many years and is currently experiencing growth in the United States. Energywork has been featured on 60 Minutes, ABC News and the Los Angeles Times.
When seeking out an energyworker, it is good to work with someone experienced. Many energyworkers are self-taught and rely on their divine connection as guidance in their sessions; however, it is important to work with an energyworker who is centered and connected with positive energy or a higher power so that the focus is positive. It is also important that the energyworker is grounded (connected with the earth, present and fully aware) so that he/she can pass through energy in a balanced way. Some energyworkers have been trained at school, and it is always a good idea to ask someone about his/her education and experience.
If you choose to get an education in energywork as an additional tool in your massage practice, there are energywork schools available. Energywork is becoming more well-known as a modality, and clients often actively seek energywork as a treatment in addition to massage. If you want to distinguish yourself as a massage therapist, extend your professional longevity, "lighten the load" when you are working, and empower your clients in their healing processes, add energywork to your toolkit!

NOSEY: Greetings, cybernuts! This is I.B. Nosey, your official unofficial reporter! Today I'm coming to you from…um…*glances around* Huh, nothing here but a signpost. *reads* 'Ye Olde South'. Where in Mason Dixon is that?
MAN YELLS: Hallo! Are you our hired clown? You're late to the party, dude.
NOSEY: *spins around* Whadda ya mean 'clown', mister?
MAN: I call 'em as I see 'em.
WOMAN APPEARS AT DOORWAY: Clown? *looks at Nosey* Oh, there you are! Come inside.
MAN: *points* Looky at 'im. Sure is dressed the part. Never in my life have I laid eyes on such a hodge-podge mismatched weirdo.
NOSEY: *grins* Awe right! My 'Be Nosey' blazer… *leans over to whisper in aside* designed by Yours Truly, of course — really stands out, eh? *puffs out chest* Only a hunk can wear it with style.
MAN: *snorts* Or junk?
NOSEY: Well, I— Huh?
SJ: *giggles* This is I.B. Nosey, the Pukelitzer Award winning cyberspace reporter. He's here to interview me.
MAN: *rolls eyes* What some authors gotta resort to, I guess. *saunters away*
NOSEY: Er… *clears throat* Greetings, girlie. Are you Sherri Wilson Johnson?
SJ: You bet I am. *takes Nosey's arm* I'm so happy you've come to my masquerade party, Nosey.
NOSEY: Uhhh…
SJ: See, I decided to hold the party at a southern plantation house. It sets the perfect theme for my book, 'To Laugh Once More', don't you think?
NOSEY: Uhhh… *jumps back as costumed man jostles by* Holy Snaggle Teeth! Who's he dressed as?
SJ: A card shark. Cards were an important game in Victorian Georgia.
NOSEY: Uh huh. *gazes at crowd and whistles* Fancy to-do here.
SJ: Oh yes. Parties were such a hit in 1895. By the way, here's my book. And… *smacks Nosey with fan* stop staring at Jack Daniels!
NOSEY: Hey! *rubs injured forehead* I've got enough smarts there!
SJ: Hush, Nosey, and let's begin, shall we? I'll read the blurb. It goes like this: 'The War may be over, but the battles still rage. A dissatisfied wife. A misunderstood husband. Three tragedies will alter their path forever. Will their choices tear them apart, or will they allow them To Laugh Once More?'
NOSEY: I dunno. I—
SJ: I'm not finished.
NOSEY: But—
SJ: Wait a minute. *stops butler passing by and grabs item from canopy tray* This will fit your mouth nicely.
NOSEY: But— *gulps on morsel*
SJ: As I was saying… 'Three years after her marriage to Hamilton, former debutante Lydia Barrington Scarbrough is dissatisfied with life. She has yet to have children, and she spends most of her days sitting in a circle of women chatting about homemaking. She thought life would be more than what it's turned out to be. Hamilton travels on business and never takes her with him. What's a lonely wife to do when she has no children to raise? She longs for adventure and romance, and really, she longs for the fulfillment of her purpose in life.' *sighs happily*…Nosey, you have anything to say to that?
NOSEY: Do I! *spits out canopy* Lady, who made that fudge? It tastes like last week's bad reviews!
SJ: *frowns* But I thought the sale on second-hand goodies at Dollar Hollar—
NOSEY: Say what? *stares in disbelief* Dollar Hollar?
SJ: Oops. I didn't say that, did I? *nibbles guiltily at bottom lip* Um…why don't you -uh- ask something about my book? I'm sure you're full of wisdom about my two main characters, hm? *gives flattering bat of lashes*
NOSEY: Well… *straightens tie* if it's lovelorn advice you're after… *smirks* Heh heh, you've come to the right guy.
SJ: I knew I could count on you!
NOSEY: Yeah, 'cause it's simple, really. All you gotta do is buy the lady a box of Gum Drop Island chocolates. Hey, that hubs is misunderstanding her 'cause he's like you and gave her that fake imitation Dollar Hollar brand.
SJ: *nods* You're so right, Nosey. Now why didn't I think of that?! That would be the easiest solution ever!
NOSEY: Don't be so hard on yourself, kid. *pats SJ's shoulder* After all, I am the Nose who knows.
SJ: Ah. Yes. Well, where were we? *steers Nosey around edge of ballroom* Um, what else can I share about my book?
NOSEY: For starters, there's something I'm real nosy about.
SJ: Oh, good. What would that be?
NOSEY: Yeah, what's Hamilton's problem? Why can't he take his wife with him on business?
SJ: Oh, because he helps his father to run their orchard. He travels to Georgia to sell their produce.
NOSEY: So?
SJ: So, they also sell china and silver. Hamilton's on the road a lot which means she's lonely and misses him.
NOSEY: That's my point. Why can't the little wifey tag along? Is there something about Georgia that she doesn't like? Such as — Holy Twelve Oaks! *drools as couple waltz past* Is that Miss Scarlett O'Hara?
SJ: Eyes this way, Nosey. *snaps fingers close to Nosey's nose* Ahem. No, it's that she doesn't want to move away from Florida. That's where her family is. She loves Hamilton but she doesn't want to leave everyone behind. In Georgia, there's a lot of snobbery and prejudice and discrimination. She hates it.
NOSEY: Oh, yeah. That.
SJ: That what?
NOSEY: What you just said.
SJ: What I— ? *thinks quickly* Um, you mean, discrimination?
NOSEY: Uh huh. I feel her pain. *lowers voice* Happens to me all the time.
SJ: *gasps* No! Share, Nosey!
NOSEY: *glances over shoulder* It's this reporting biz, ya see. *nods* I've got enemies 'cause of that Pukelitzer Award.
SJ: *slaps hand to cheek* Hush my mouth.
NOSEY: Yeah. Rumors fly sayin' I only won 'cause of my debonair charm. *grins* Bet ya didn't think I knew that word, huh?
SJ: *flips open fan and swiftly cools cheeks* Dear me, Nosey. You're full of… er, well….
NOSEY: That's okay. You can say debonair charm. Everyone else does, heh heh.
SJ: *mutters* That wasn't exactly what I had in mind.
NOSEY: Huh. Maybe you meant my way of how I do this interviewing stuff? It's called… *scratches head* It's called…hm, what's that term?
SJ: Journalistic skill?
NOSEY: That's it!
SJ: No. *purses lips* That's not what I was searching for. *gives fake cough* Anyway, Nosey, I appreciate that you can sympathize with Lydia's plight.
NOSEY: Plight. That's me. Uh huh. Uhhh…
SJ: In other words - a hardship.
NOSEY: Yeah, and not much fun for her either.
SJ: I'd say you're right.
NOSEY: You gotta tell us. Do things get better?
SJ: Now, now. I don't want to give away all the hardships she encounters because we want the readers to discover these things as they read the book. Right?
NOSEY: We do? Oh. Right, right! Heh heh. What about you, Ms. Johnson? You a Georgia belle or— *gets bumped by woman dressed as a peach. Nosey calls out:* Watch it! And get a shave! *brushes fuzz off jacket sleeve*
SJ: Dear Nosey, what can I say? I've lived in Georgia my entire life. I've never lived outside of two counties, but I've vacationed in Florida almost all of my life. Have to admit. I love both states.
NOSEY: Well, what's this deal of writing old stories?
SJ: Old stories?
NOSEY: Yeah. Set back in days before internet, iPhones, U-phone, We-Phones, He-Phones…
SJ: Ah, yes. Those days. Truth be told, I absolutely love being swept away to the days of yesteryear. I love the dresses and the balls. *gestures to encompass room full of dancers* I love when things were simple.
NOSEY: Uh huh.
SJ: And although times were tough, it seems like families had to really pull together in those tough times.
NOSEY: Uh huh.
SJ: *eyes glaze with dreamy expression* I love that fathers got to stay home with the families to farm —most of them— and that children played outdoors and weren't stuck inside of classrooms and then playing video games—
MAN SHOUTS: You cheated!
*Nosey jumps* Yikes! How did you— Uh, wait. What's going on?
SJ: They're playing a game of Stay Alive. *points to group of men sitting at table* And someone just lost all his marbles.
MAN GLARES AT NOSEY: I was winning until he walked up! You're a jinx!
OTHER MAN: We don't need no jinxes!
NOSEY: Whoa, fellas. Hold on a minute!
FIRST MAN: Just look at that costume he wore to the party. Anybody who'd wear a crazy blazer like that sicko-one and then add a huge nose to boot? He's gotta be a jinx!
NOSEY: Aw, now. Gimme a break!
OTHER MAN: We'll give ya a break! We'll break your legs! *all rush up, leaping to race after Nosey*
NOSEY: Ms. Johnson! *screams* Whatever happened to southern hospitality? *knocks down tables, vaults over Old Glory, and streaks from room*
SJ: Excuse me, Nosey, you've got that all wrong. It's southern hospital! But just wait. *calls out* One day you'll look back at this fun-filled adventure and you'll be able To Laugh Once More!

We printed the first issue of music magazine The Stinger in February and last month they published their third issue. It's a cracking publication out of Hastings covering local music news and history, from interviews with current acts to 'I Was There' accounts of gigs gone by (like the Sex Pistols and Nick Cave playing Hastings Pier). It's all put together by volunteers, working with the Fat Tuesday charity, and distributed locally for free. Managing Editor Andy Gunton wrote to tell us about the newspaper:
The Stinger is a free, independent, local music magazine for Hastings and the surrounding '1066' area. Its aim is to help promote, support and encourage original local music. The magazine is published every other month and is written and produced by local music lovers, who are all passionate about both their hometown and the music created and played within it.
In a very timely development, Hastings has recently been officially recognised as the 'most musically sophisticated town in the UK'. Happily we now have a local music magazine to help celebrate and publicise that fact. The team behind the magazine want to produce engaging, educational and readable content, something that the readers would wish to keep for its own sake, instead of glancing at and casting aside.
The design and look of The Stinger was an important consideration when first putting the magazine together. The editors wanted a magazine that looked and felt a little different to other local music and listing publications– hence producing a traditional mini newspaper instead of an A5 sized glossy publication.
When we first heard of Newspaper Club and saw samples of their products, we knew they would be the right people to put our creation into print. We have been very happy with the service we've received from the Newspaper Club team, from the prompt and friendly replies to our initial enquiries, right through to the advice and help given when The Stinger finally went to print. Launching a new print magazine, albeit locally, in this digital age is a bit of a leap of faith, and a rather daunting prospect as well. So, to have a stress free printing and delivery process is very welcome, and one less thing to worry about!
You can download a copy of The Stinger online and keep up with the magazine on Twitter. Thank you for printing with us!

US FL: OPED: Marijuana Amendment Poorly Written
US CA: Editorial: Pressure Is Now on the Medical Marijuana
Chronicle AM: GOP Rep. Tackles Forfeiture, OR Measure 91 Support, CA Dispensary Troubles, More (10/24/14)
James Sensenbrenner is on the asset forfeiture case, Oregon's Measure 91 picks up some big name endorsements, dispensaries get shut down in San Diego and raided by the DEA in LA, fallout continues in the case of the missing Mexican student teachers, and more. Let's get to it:
[image:1 align:left caption:true]Asset Forfeiture
Key GOP Lawmaker Questions Asset Forfeiture Seizures. US Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-WI), chair of the House Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, Homeland Security, and Investigations, today sent a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder asking him to provide documents and data related to the Justice Department's role in more than 60,000 cash and property seizures under the department's Equitable Sharing Program with state and local law enforcement agencies. "While we must ensure law enforcement is properly equipped, they should not be funded by slush funds accrued by violating Americans' civil liberties," Sensenbrenner said in a statement today. "The implications on civil liberties are dire," he said in the letter. "The right to own property is a fundamental right implicitly recognized in the Fourth, Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. I also believe that it is a human right." Sensenbrenner sent similar letters to the DEA and Department of Homeland Security last week, after a Washington Post investigation that found that 61,998 cash seizures of more than $2.5 billion have been made since 9/11 without search warrants or indictments through Equitable Sharing.
Marijuana Policy
Marijuana Policy Expert Mark Kleiman Says Yes on Oregon's Measure 91. He grumbled, but in the end, academic marijuana policy expert and Washington state legalization implementation maven Mark Kleiman has come down in favor of Oregon's Measure 91 marijuana legalization initiative. Even though he says the initiative doesn't reflect "a sophisticated understanding of the problems of illegal markets or a nuanced view about substance abuse disorder" and says that claims that legalization will reduce youth access to marijuana don't pass "the giggle test," "the choice Oregon voters face isn't between what's on the ballot and some perfectly designed cannabis policy; it's between what's on the ballot and continued prohibition at the state level, until and unless a better initiative can be crafted, put before the voters, and passed into law." Bottom line? "It's not an easy choice; as a Californian, I'm glad I don't have to make one like it (yet). But if I had to vote in Oregon, I'd vote 'Yes.'" Click on the link to read the whole piece.
Oregon US Senator Jeff Merkley Says He Will Probably Vote Yes on Measure 91. US Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-OR) has said he is inclined vote in favor of the Measure 91 marijuana legalization initiative. "I think folks on both sides of the argument make a good case," Merkley said. "And there is concern about a series of new products -- and we don't have a real track record from Colorado and Washington. But I feel on balance that we spend a lot of money on our criminal justice system in the wrong places and I lean in favor of this ballot measure." If he does vote yes, he will become the first US senator to support legalizing marijuana in his home state.
Medical Marijuana
Four San Diego Dispensaries Shut Down By Court Order. San Diego authorities won court orders earlier this week to close four dispensaries they said were operating illegally in the city. All four had closed their doors by Wednesday. The city has just adopted a permitting process for dispensaries and the first permit was handed out recently, but a number of dispensaries are operating in the city without permits. The city has shut down more than 200 unpermitted dispensaries since 2009, the city attorney's office said.
DEA Raids Two Los Angeles Dispensaries. DEA agents Thursday raided two Los Angeles dispensaries that staffers claim were fully compliant with state laws. Raiders hit two locations of The Farmacy, one in West Hollywood and one in Westwood, seizing cash, computers, and medical marijuana. No arrests were made. The Farmacy's Venice Beach location wasn't hit, but staffers said they thought that was because it had recently moved and the DEA couldn't find it.
Drug Testing
Key West Job Offer Drug Test Case to Go to Jury. A Florida woman who sued the city of Key West for rescinding a job offer after she refused to take a pre-employment drug test will have to seek damages before a jury, a federal judge has ruled. Karen Voss had sued, arguing that all suspicionless, pre-employment drug tests were unconstitutional, and she won a summary judgment holding the city liable. She then filed a second motion seeking financial relief for her losses. US District Judge James Lawrence King ruled that a jury must determine what damages, if any, will be awarded, but he did not address whether mandatory, pre-employment drug testing was constitutional.
Irish Report Finds Drug Law Enforcement Has Little Impact on Drug Availability. In a study commissioned by the Irish government's drug advisory body, the National Committee on Drugs and Alcohol, researchers have found that the availability of drugs is "largely unaffected" by law enforcement anti-drug operations and recommended that police focus on drug markets causing the most community harm. Both police and dealers agreed that police operations had "no impact on availability" other than temporary reductions because of stiff competition, massive profits, and a steady demand for drugs. The 328-page report is Illicit Drug Markets in Ireland.
Mexico Missing Student Teacher Scandal Forces Guerrero's Governor to Resign. Guerrero Gov. Angel Aguirre Thursday said he was taking a leave of absence. He is not expected to return to office. Aguirre becomes the highest ranking politician yet to fall victim to the festering scandal over the case of 43 radical student teachers missing for more than a month after being seized by local police forces and Guerreros Unidos drug gang members working hand-in-hand with them. The mayor of Iguala, the city where they were seized, and his wife, also face arrest, but they have fled. Several mass graves have been found in the search for the students, but the bodies in them don't appear to be the students. The case has seen mass protests in Mexico City, as well as violent protests in the Iguala and Chilpancingo, the capital of the state.

Marijuana retailers face ATM problems, Seattle dispensaries get a heads up, the DC initiative wins a pair of endorsements, California's Prop 47 is drawing big bucks support, the Mexico missing student teacher story gets uglier, and more. Let's get to it:
[image:1 align:right caption:true]Marijuana Policy
Pew Poll: Latinos Are Even Split on Marijuana Legalization. A new Pew Research Center survey finds that Latino voters are slightly less likely than the population as a whole to favor marijuana legalization, but are almost evenly divided in their opinions. Some 49% said marijuana should be legal, while 48% said it shouldn't. A Pew poll earlier this year found support for marijuana legalization among the general population at 53%.
Banking Network Pulls the Plug on Pot Shop ATMs. Hundreds of recreational and medical marijuana retail outlets in Colorado and Washington have had their ATMs shut down after the South Dakota-based MetaBank pulled the plug on them. MetaBank had warned ATM providers in January that the presence of such machines in marijuana retail outlets violated federal rules, but shops had remained unaffected until this week. Other retail outlets using different bank networks were still able to process transactions.
DC Initiative Wins Endorsement from NAACP, NOW Branches. The DC marijuana possession and cultivation legalization initiative, Measure 71, has picked up the endorsements of the local chapters of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and the National Organization for Women (NOW). "The NAACP DC Branch strongly advocates to end the war on drugs, which has caused significant damage in our communities. Endorsement of Initiative 71 does not mean that the NAACP is pro marijuana, however, we view Initiative 71 as a step towards ending discriminatory drug policies." said Akosua Ali, President of the NAACP DC Branch. "Criminalization of marijuana has played a major role in the racial disparities and injustice in the criminal justice system," said Susan Mottet, president of DC NOW. "DC NOW works to end all discrimination in DC and urges the voters to pass Initiative 71 to help put an end to this tool for discrimination."

Seattle Warns Dispensaries They Will Need Licenses, But… The city of Seattle has sent letters to 330 dispensaries operating there that they will need to be licensed by the state. The only problem is there is no such license for medical marijuana businesses. The city council had placed the requirement on hold until the state legislature decides whether and how to license dispensaries, but the letter warns that as of January 1, 2015 (or January 1, 2016 if the legislature doesn't act before then), dispensaries must have state licenses or close their doors. Click on the title link to see the letter.
California Defelonization Initiative Picking Up Big Bucks Support. Proposition 47, he initiative that would defelonize drug possession and some other offenses, is getting generous contributions from California-based technology mavens and other business figures, but those donations are being dwarfed by the ACLU, which has contributed more than $3 million. Some of the big names include Netflix CEO Reed Hastings ($246,000); Cari Tuna, the wife of Facebook billionaire Dustin Moskovitz ($150,000), Democratic Party funder Quinn Delaney ($100,000), Hyatt Development Corporation CEO Nick Pritzer ($250,000), and app maker Sean Parker ($100,000).
OAS Drug Commission Meets in Colombia. The Inter-American Drug Abuse Control Commission (CICAD) of the Organization of American States (OAS) met in Cartagena, Colombia, yesterday and today, and addressed the consensus among countries that prison overcrowding in the Americas is a real problem, with more than 1.5 million people detained for drug offenses. The results of this initiative will be presented at the upcoming biannual meeting of CICAD that will take place in Guatemala during the third week of November.
Canadian House of Commons Report on Cannabis Harms. The Conservative-dominated House of Commons has issued a report on the harms of marijuana. It recommends raising "public awareness and knowledge of the risks and harms associated with marijuana use." Click on the link to read the report.
NACLA on Race, Class, and Cannabis in the Caribbean. The venerable North American Congress on Latin America (NACLA) has published a thoughtful piece about marijuana reform in the Caribbean, The Other Side of Paradise. In in, author Kevin Edmonds cites Caribbean activists to the effect that the region must act effectively on reforms or risk losing its lucrative, but currently illicit, pot crops to imported marijuana from places where it's already legal. An interesting read.
Case of Missing Mexican Student Teachers Unveils Tight Ties Between Local Officials, Drug Gang. Mexico's top prosecutor said Wednesday that the mayor of Iguala and his wife ordered the attack on 43 radical student teachers who have been missing for a month now, and that the wife, Maria de los Angeles Pineda, was the "principal operator" of the Guerreros Unidos drug gang, which is being blamed for disappearing the students. Jesus Murillo Karam said the mayoral couple ran the group's illegal activities out of Iguala's city hall. City hall was attacked again Wednesday by protestors demanding the return of the students, and thousands marched in Mexico City to demand justice in the case, which is turning into a national scandal epitomizing the breadth of corruption and impunity in the country. Several mass graves have been found in the area, but the bodies in them haven't been identified as those of the missing students. That raises another touchy question: Whose bodies are in the mass graves?

Arizona Wildcats
ESPN analyst: Expect double-digit wins from Arizona next year
The Arizona Wildcats finished the 2012 season with eight wins, equaling its highest total reached twice in the Mike Stoops era.
While not exactly a win total to write home about, the Arizona football program is not exactly known for having great success. Only twice in the last 20 years have the Wildcats won more than eight games, collecting 12 wins in 1998 and 10 in 1993.
ESPN NCAA football analyst Mark May believes they'll do it again in 2013.
"I think, depending on the quarterback they get to replace Matt Scott," May told Arizona Sports 620's Burns and Gambo when asked if the 'Cats are set to make a big jump next season. "Looking at their schedule and the players that they have returning, you should expect this team to get to double-digit victories or close to that no matter who the quarterback is."
May's optimism comes at a time when, really, no one knows who Arizona will turn to to replace fifth-year senior Matt Scott, who passed for 3,620 yards and 27 touchdowns this season. He also ran for 506 yards and six scores.
"With Rich Rodriguez, no matter who he puts at quarterback, you know he's going to be prepared," May said. "If you go back and look at his history, his offenses have always been great."
May noted how Rodriguez's defenses have tended to be the issue, and his first year in the desert was no different. The Wildcats were among the worst in the country when it came to stopping opponents, though much of that can be attributed to the number of walk-ons and true freshmen who were pressed into action.
That could pay off, though, as all 11 defensive starters are set to return in 2013.
"I think things are looking great for the University of Arizona, particularly in the future," May said. "And that schedule, non-conference, not a lot there, not a lot of meat on that bone, so you can almost pencil them in right now for a bowl at least."

Meanwhile the hosts extended their top form in the bowling championship. The quartet of Noora Sultan, Yasmine Akeel, Fatma Isa and Noora Janahi excelled on the penultimate day of the bowling events and the Games, giving the home side a well-deserved victory and the gold medal.
Scoring a total of 4,193 points, the Bahrainis finished well ahead of their nearest rivals Kuwait (3,821 points) and Oman (3,495).
It was the third gold medal for the Bahrainis in bowling, having won the singles title through Noora, who teamed up with Yasmine later to take the doubles crown.
The top three finishers were honoured by Supreme Council for Youth and Sports member Abdulrahman Jawahery.
Tuesday's Games action also included shooting, besides the concluding day of basketball and sports for the disabled events.
On the second day of shooting, staged at the shooting field in Sakhir, Qatar were crowned champions in both the 10m rifle singles and team events.
Qatar's Bahia Mansoor topped the single competition, followed by compatriot Mahbooba Akhlaqi. Aisha Ebrahim, also of Qatar, took the last spot on the podium to underline Qatar's dominance on the most recent show.
They received their respective awards late on by GCC Women's Organising Committee chairwoman Shaikha Naima Al Subah of Kuwait at the awarding ceremony.
The same trio led Qatar to win the 10m rifle team gold medal, with the silver medal going to the Kuwaiti team of Maryam Arzooqi, Heba Arzooi and Zahra Khalil.
Bahrain, represented by Sabeeka Mubarak, Sara Rashid and Muneera Yousif, won the bronze. – The Gulf Today
