Vortex A/C - Panel Cooling System
Avoid any downtime, with the most affordable, reliable, and easiest to install thermal protection product available for electrical enclosures!
Just as quiet as an air conditioner (about 62 dBA), the Vortex A/C noise level is 73% less than other conventional, vortex type cabinet panel coolers. When the thermostatically-controlled Vortex A/C is operating, the decibel level is about the same as normal human conversation!
This next generation in panel cooling, Vortex A/C cabinet panel cooler features an integral mechanical thermostat to conserve energy and maintain enclosure temperatures within a range of 80° to 90°F. Requiring only a compressed air supply to operate, the UL listed Vortex A/C quickly installs in a 1.5" knockout hole to keep electrical control panels cool, clean and protected.
When the going gets tough...
Using vortex tube technology, cold air is generated by the Vortex A/C from the compressed air supply and is distributed throughout the enclosure. Since ambient air never enters the cabinet, it's perfect for harsh, dirty environments. In fact, the Vortex A/C features an optional "purge-air" port that, when opened, will provide a constant positive pressure inside the enclosure to purge the cabinet of any contaminated surrounding air. Withstanding extreme temperature conditions, the Vortex A/C will provide reliable cooling operation in environments up to 175°F (79° C).
Compare the Differences

Current Articles
By Robert R. Rogers
-- The 2008 Ohio archery season started out warm and the deer were not moving as much as we had hoped. Just walking to our stands made the sweat roll down our faces and backs. This was not the weather we had expected for central Ohio in late October.
Two friends and I had taken a chance and leased a property in Ohio. We had high hopes, but this weather was not what we bargained for. The area we hunted was beautiful central-Ohio farm land. The farmer grew soybeans on our property, and the surrounding properties had standing corn. We hunted three days toward the end of October with no luck. We all had jobs to get back to in Pennsylvania, so we headed home, vowing to return in early November.
John and I had been watching the Weather Channel, waiting for a cold snap in Ohio. Finally, a three-day stretch of cool weather was forecast. We packed our equipment and took the five-hour trip to Ohio. I felt good about or chances, but I still had my doubts. since we hadn't seen many deer on our first trip. I had done the research on this property, and I was beginning to feel guilty that I might have made a bad choice.
I began to ask myself, "Had the deer be over-hunted in this area?" "Do we have poor stand placement?" I had to get those thoughts out of my head. I knew we hadn't hunted the property much and needed to give it a fair chance. After all, I had been hunting for 24 years, and I knew our luck could change in a matter of seconds.
We drove straight to our lease so we could make the evening hunt. The temperature was cool, and we hoped our evening would produce at least a sighting of a good buck. I didn't see anything that night, but John had seen a nice 8-pointer near his stand, which was encouraging. I had also noticed two new scrapes near my stand, and I couldn't wait for the next morning. I tossed and turn all night and woke up John before the alarm went off.
We set out early to get into our stands. It was a cold morning, perfect for getting the deer moving. John and I wished each other luck and parted ways to our individual stands.
As daylight began to illuminate the woods, I heard the familiar sound of a deer headed my way. I readied my bow, just knowing it would be a giant Ohio buck. My heart felt like it was going to jump out of my chest. As the deer got closer, it began to rub a tree about 40 yards out. I couldn't see how large the buck was, but by all the noise it was making rubbing that tree, it had to be BIG!
The buck then continued down the trail that would take him past my stand at 22 yards. As it got closer, I could see antlers. Then the buck came into full view; it was a small 8-pointer. How could such a small buck make all that noise? I watched as the youngster walked by, hoping to see him again in about three years. As disappointed as I was, I couldn't help a little smile. While it wasn't the buck I was hoping for, it was already a great morning. If I didn't see another deer, I would still be happy with that experience.
As the morning went on, I saw a lot of squirrels but no more deer. It was a beautiful day, with sunny skies and cool temperatures, and I hoped John had a morning that had been as exciting as mine.
We had agreed to stay in our stands until about noon, when we would meet back at the truck for a brief lunch before heading back to the stands for the rest of the day. It was about 10 a.m., and I had just got done ranging all the likely shot areas again. Just as I put my rangefinder away, I looked out in front of the stand and saw a big Ohio buck headed right for me.
I slowly grabbed my bow off its hanger and readied for a shot as the buck began to angle to the right.
It stopped broadside at 20 yards, so I pulled back my bow, picked out a spot in the heart/lung area and let the arrow fly. The buck turned and ran back the way it came, but I knew I had made a fatal shot. My thoughts were confirmed as I watched the beautiful buck fall within sight.
I stood in my stand going over what had just occurred. Replaying it in my head, I couldn't believe how quickly it had happened. I got out of the stand and walked over to the magnificent buck I had just taken. I looked at the giant and thanked the good Lord for my great fortune on this beautiful morning.
My thoughts then turned to John. Did he have as great a morning as I did? I hoped he had. I walked to the edge of woods where I could see John in his stand with my binoculars. John wasn't there. My excitement grew. Had John taken a big Ohio buck, too?
I headed that way, and John was out of his stand, looking at the ground. I thought for sure he had gotten a buck. When I got close enough, John told me he had enjoyed the best morning of his life. He saw two big bucks, one being the largest he had ever laid eyes on. He wasn't able to get a clear shot, so he let them both pass.
It was a great hunt for both of us. We took a chance with a lease in Ohio, and it turned out to be a great hunting opportunity for all of us. It's another great memory for friends to share, and we look forward to next year and hope to take another unexpected, but greatly appreciated, big Ohio buck.

Installed this patch at lunchtime today and i've noticed our cpu load to be signifcantly lower than it was this morning....only a rough test though so will have to see over the next week or so. Be interesting to see if vmware flags up any CPU usage warnings as it has done every day for the past few weeks on the particular host SQL is on.
We have applied 18180 and now (with the exception of me?!) everyone is getting the error cannot find Table 8 - logs on then displays the error box. Has anyone else seen and sorted this issue?
Last edited by Rawns; 9th May 2013 at 10:51 AM.
We figured it was the timeline. Added ALL staff to the Reg Tutor group and locked down the homepage with timeline removed. This appears to have made no difference (but I guess that's a separate issue!). IT on the phone to Capita who are sorting it now.
Just had a call from Capita. There apparently was an issue with Patch 18180 which has caused the "Cannot find Table 8" error, odd why it's only affecting specific sites though. It has been replaced with patch number 18205.
Anyone else loosing track of all these patches?!

vikpaw (9th May 2013)
Probably unfair to say, cos who knows whether they increment through the numbers one by one or release each one, but when you look at patch # 18180 released, what was it Monday this week?, and then see today or perhaps it was late yesterday, # 18205, a layman could conclude they have had to patch 25 different product issues in that space of time. Worrying? :-)
Well, I was hoping that I wouldn't have the issue. Fortuantely, I don't have it as bad as some schools but the CPU is just jumping around like crazy. Did they also changed the Emergency Alert Button? I had never seen it before but I've managed to accidently click it twice today. And so have other members of staff. Weird.
I know it was mentioned already but he's the latest update from SupportNet.
This is what? Patch number 4?
zag (10th May 2013)
We have one school that have had all the patches and the CPU is still just maxing out at 100% and not letting up!
So glad we don't have the CPU issue. Management would go mental considering other things going wrong.

EU deep sea fishery protection in one infographic
Rainbow colored tropical fish, jumping dolphins, and incredible sea turtles are often what comes to mind when thinking of the oceans. The deep sea, dark and less colorful, but possibly even more awe-inspiring, can sometimes be ignored since it is so far below our world. That may be why, in the European Union (EU), the main regulation to manage fisheries occurring in this fragile world have not been updated since 2002.

Oceana's Michael LeVine Testifies Against a Reckless Offshore Oil Bill
Yesterday, Michael LeVine, Pacific Senior Council, Oceana, testified on the "Offshore Energy and Jobs Act" (H.R. 2231) in front of the U.S. House of Representatives Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources of the Committee on Natural Resources. H.R. 2231 would force the Secretary of the Interior to offer lease sales in vast areas of U.S. ocean waters, including the U.S. Arctic Ocean, where Shell's 2012 exploration attempt resulted in a season of mishaps and near-disasters.

Overfishing is Putting the Mediterranean at Great Risk
As we wrote about last week, the EU has taken some major steps toward a strong Common Fisheries Policy (CFP). That could mean less overfishing, better protection for endangered species, and an overall healthier ocean. Just a day after that agreement was reached, it seems that the CFP principles are set up for their first test.

EU Takes a Big Step to Healthy Fisheries
Big news out of Oceana Europe today! Given that the EU is one of the 10 governing bodies that controls a majority of the world's fisheries, it's a big damn deal whether they manage their fisheries well. With so many countries weighing in, reaching a good Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) is no simple task. As of today, they have taken a huge step toward that goal.
Early this morning, May 30, the European Parliament and Fisheries Council reached a political agreement on the main elements of the updated CFP. The key elements are that the future CFP will:
- Ensure that stocks are rebuilt above levels which can produce the Maximum Sustainable Yield
- Ban discards
- Generally transition the fishing industry into fishing much more sustainably

Return-Path: <firstname.lastname@example.com>
Received: from 220.127.116.11, Nigeria, vgccl.net
Date: Thu, 13 Mar 2008
Subject: Read carefully and contact me.
From: "Ma Delun" <firstname.lastname@example.com>
Reply-To: [firstname.lastname@example.com]
Good day,
I am Ma Delun,a staff of Private Banking Services at the Bank of China (BOC) United Kingdom. I am contacting you concerning our customer and, an investment placed under our banks management 4 years ago.
I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information you come by as a result of this mail. I contacted you independently of our investigation and no one is informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you.
In 2003, the subject matter; ref: bb/boc/bank/0012 came to our bank to engage in business discussions with our Private Banking Services Department. He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of 8.35 million United States Dollars, which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf.
I was the officer assigned to his case; I made numerous suggestions in line with my duties as the de-facto chief operations officer of the Private Banking Services Department, especially given the volume of funds he wished to put into our bank. We met on numerous occasions prior to any investments being placed. I encouraged him to consider various growth funds with prime ratings. The favored route in my advice to customers is to start by assessing data on 6000 traditional stocks and bond managers and 2000 managers of alternative investments. Based on my advice, we spun the money around various opportunities and made attractive margins for our first months of operation, the accrued profit and interest stood at this point at over 10 million United States Dollars, this margin was not the full potential of the fund but he desired low risk guaranteed returns on investments. In mid 2005, he asked that the money be liquidated because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in Europe. He directed that I liquidate the funds and had it deposited with a firm. I informed him that the bank would have to make special arrangements to have this done and in order not to circumvent due process, the bank would have to make a 9.5 % deduction from the funds to cater for banking and statutory charges. He complained about the charges but later came around when I explained to him the complexities of the task he was asking of us. Cash movement across borders has become especially strict since the incidents of 9/11. I contacted my affiliate in and had the funds available. I undertook all the processes and made sure I followed his precise instructions to the letter and had the funds deposited in a security consultancy firm, the firm is a specialist private firm that accepts deposits from high net worth individuals and blue chip corporations that handle valuable products or undertake transactions that need immediate access to cash. This small and highly private organization is familiar especially to the highly placed and well-connected organizations. In line with instructions, the money was deposited . He told me he wanted the money there in anticipation of his arrival from Norway later that week. This was the last communication we had, this transpired around 9th October, 2005.
In January last year, we got a call from the security firm informing us that the inactivity of that particular portfolio. This was an astounding position as far as I was concerned, given the fact that I managed the private banking sector I was the only one who knew about the deposit , and I could not understand why he had not come forward to claim his deposit. I made futile efforts to locate him I immediately passed the task of locating him to the internal investigations department of the bank of china. Four days later, information started to trickle in, apparently he was dead. A person who suited his description was declared dead of a heart attack in Canne, South of France. We were soon enough able to identify the body and cause of death was confirmed. The bank immediately launched an investigation into possible surviving next of kin to alert about the situation and also to come forward to claim his estate. If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those who patronize our services usually prefer anonymity, but also some levels of detachment from conventional processes. In his bio-data form, he listed no next of kin. In the field of private banking, opening an account with us means no one will know of its existence, accounts are rarely held under a name; depositors use numbers and codes to make the accounts anonymous. This bank also gives the choice to depositors of having their mail sent to them or held at the bank itself, ensuring that there are no traces of the account and as I said, rarely do they nominate next of kin. Private banking clients apart from not nominating next of kin also usually in most cases leave wills in our care, in this case; he died intestate.
In line with our internal processes for account holders who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in good faith to determine who should have right to claim the estate. This investigation has for the past months been unfruitful. We have scanned every continent and used our private investigation affiliate companies to get to the root of the problem. The investigation did not ever yield any result My official capacity dictates that I am the only party to supervise the investigation and the only party to receive the results of the investigation. This leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation is in relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of the deposit. According to practice, the firm will by the end of this financial year broadcast a request for statements of claim to BOC, failing to receive viable claims they will most probably revert the deposit back to BOC. This will result in the money entering the BOC accounting system and the portfolio will be out of my hands and out of the Private Banking Services Department. This will not happen if I have my way.
What I wish to relate to you will smack of unethical practice but I want you to understand something. It is only an outsider to the banking world who finds the internal politics of the banking world aberrational. The world of private banking especially is fraught with huge rewards for those who occupy certain offices and oversee certain portfolios. You should have begun by now to put together the general direction of what I propose. There is US$ 8,370,000.00 deposited , I alone have the deposit details and they will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so. I alone know of the existence of this deposit for as far as BOC is concerned, the transaction with our deceased customer concluded when I sent the funds to the firm, all outstanding interactions in relation to the file are just customer services and due process. They are simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit to any party that comes forward. This is the situation. This bank has spent great amounts of money trying to track this man's family; they have investigated for months and have found no family. The investigation has come to an end.
My proposal; I am prepared to place you in a position to give instruction for the release of the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation. Upon receipt of the deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you in half. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds 50/50.
I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released to me, but that would have drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit. I assure you that I could have the deposit released to you within a few days. I will simply inform the bank of the final closing of the file relating to the customer I will then officially communicate with firm and instruct them to release the deposit to you. With these two things: all is done. The alternative would be for us to have firm direct the funds to another bank with you as account holder. This way there will be no need for you to think of receiving the money from the firm. We can fine-tune this based on our interactions.

Canadiens top Penguins 6-5 in shootout
PITTSBURGH (AP) — David Desharnais scored the lone goal in the shootout, leading the Montreal Canadiens to a wild 6-5 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday night.
Canadiens goaltender Peter Budaj, in his second straight start for injured starter Carey Price, stopped Penguins shooters James Neal and Sidney Crosby before denying Evgeni Malkin's slap shot for the win.
Desharnais, the third shooter for Montreal, slammed on the brakes at the top of the crease before sliding the puck by Marc-Andre Fleury.
Daniel Briere scored twice, once on the power play, and Max Pacioretty also scored with the man advantage, his 27th of the year. Brendan Gallagher netted his 15th for the Canadiens and Alexei Emelin also scored his second of the season.
Crosby, who leads the NHL with 80 points, scored his 29th and added an assist.
Pavelski's hat trick lifts Sharks past Flyers 7-3
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Joe Pavelski had a hat trick to move into a tie for second in the NHL in goals scored, and Raffi Torres and Logan Couture each tallied twice in their return to the lineup following injuries as the San Jose Sharks defeated the Philadelphia Flyers 7-3 Thursday night in the first game for both teams following the Olympic break.
Pavelski, one of four Sharks Olympians, scored all three of his goals in a dominating second period when San Jose outscored the Flyers 5-0.
Andrej Meszaros had a highlight-reel tally, and Matt Read and Brayden Schenn also scored for the Flyers, who had won four straight before the Olympic break.
Bautista strikes again, Blue Jays beat Phillies
DUNEDIN, Fla. (AP) — Jose Bautista kept up his torrid start to the spring, hitting two doubles and driving in two runs Thursday that sent the Toronto Blue Jays over the Philadelphia Phillies 7-5.
A day after hitting a long home run against the Phillies in his first at-bat of exhibition play, Bautista had an RBI double in the first inning off Philadelphia ace Cliff Lee.
Bautista finished 2 for 2 with a walk. The former two-time major league homer champion missed the final six weeks last year because of a hip injury.
Jose Reyes, Brett Lawrie and Melky Cabrera also drove in runs for Toronto.
Philadelphia's offense was powered by a pair of home runs from bench hopefuls: Darin Ruf hit a two-run shot in the third and John Mayberry Jr. had a solo drive in the sixth.
Blue Jays starter R.A. Dickey allowed one unearned run in two innings.
Jeter goes hitless in first exhibition game
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Derek Jeter got a partial standing ovation Thursday before going hitless in two at-bats in the first spring training game of his final season, a New York Yankees' 8-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates.
The Yankees captain, who turns 40 in June, hit a double-play grounder to second off Pittsburgh right-hander Charlie Morton in the first and grounded out to third during the fourth against left-hander Jeff Locke.
Limited to 17 games last season due to leg injuries, Jeter was at shortstop in his first exhibition season appearance. He broke his left ankle in the 2012 AL championship series and did not appear at shortstop last spring training until March 13.
Jeter had just 11 at-bats in five games during spring training last year, stayed behind for rehabilitation at New York's minor league complex and broke the ankle again. He returned to the Yankees on July 11 but wound up on the disabled list three more times.
Eagles agree to deals with WR Cooper, C Kelce
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Philadelphia Eagles have agreed to a five-year contract with wide receiver Riley Cooper and a seven-year deal with center Jason Kelce.
Cooper would've become a free agent next month after a breakout season in which he set career highs in receptions (47), yards receiving (835) and touchdowns (eight). Kelce was signed through 2016, and the new deal adds four years to his contract. He was part of an offensive line that helped the Eagles lead the NFL in rushing while setting a franchise record for points (442).
The moves were announced Thursday, a day after All-Pro left tackle Jason Peters signed a new five-year contract.
The Eagles were 10-6 and won the NFC East title in Chip Kelly's first season as coach after going 4-12 in 2012.
Smith scores 24 as No. 7 Louisville tops Temple

Duquesne stuns No. 10 Saint Louis 71-64 on road
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Micah Mason had 22 points, Jerry Jones added 19 and Duquesne surprised No. 10 Saint Louis 71-64 on Thursday night to snap the Billikens' school-record, 19-game winning streak.
Saint Louis (25-3, 12-1 Atlantic 10) had not lost since dropping a 70-65 decision on Dec. 1 to unbeaten Wichita State, now ranked No. 2 in the country.
Mason, who entered leading the nation in 3-point shooting percentage (.554), hit four of five from behind the arc for Duquesne (12-15, 4-10), which beat a top-10 opponent on the road for the fifth time (5-28). The Dukes, who were 14-point underdogs, improved to 25-55 against teams ranked in the top 10.
Dwayne Evans had 10 points and 12 rebounds for Saint Louis. Mike McCall Jr. led the Billikens with 18 points, while Jordair Jett (13 points) and Rob Loe (12 points) also were in double digits.
Penn St holds off No. 22 Ohio St 65-63 for sweep
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — D.J. Newbill scored 23 points, Tim Frazier added 16 and Penn State held off a late rally by No. 22 Ohio State for a 65-63 win Thursday on Senior Night.
The Buckeyes (22-7, 9-7 Big Ten) had a chance to win at the end. Coming out of a timeout with 6.8 seconds left, Lenzelle Smith Jr.'s 3-pointer rimmed out. The Nittany Lions (14-14, 5-10) grabbed the rebound and time expired.
Ohio State was led by LaQuinton Ross, who scored 19 points. Aaron Craft, plagued by foul trouble most of the game, added 10.
Penn State swept the season series from Ohio State. The Nittany Lions upset the then-No. 23 Buckeyes 71-70 in overtime on Jan. 29 in Columbus, Ohio.
Moody leads Wagner over St. Francis (Pa) 74-55
STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. (AP) — Mario Moody tied a career-high with 19 points and Kenneth Ortiz added 15 as Wagner won its seventh straight with a 74-55 victory over St. Francis (Pa) on Thursday night.
Moody scored 16 points in the first half as Wagner took a 35-22 lead into halftime and never trailed. Moody was 8 of 10 from the field, including 2-for-2 shooting from beyond the arc. Ortiz made 7 of 11 shots and Latif Rivers added 10 points.
With the win, Wagner (17-11, 11-4 Northeast) clinched the No. 2 seed for the NEC Tournament. The Seahawks are three games back of conference leader Robert Morris.
Ronnie Drinnon scored 12 points and Ben Millaud-Meunier added 11 to lead St. Francis (9-19, 7-8), which has not won back-to-back games since winning its third straight February 1.
Robert Morris defeats Fairleigh Dickinson 69-64
TEANECK, N.J. (AP) — Karvel Anderson scored 22 points as Robert Morris overcame a 15-point second-half deficit to defeat Fairleigh Dickinson 69-64 on Thursday, keeping its three-game lead in the Northeast Conference.
Robert Morris (19-11, 14-1) trailed 62-47 with 8:34 left in the game after a Fairleigh Dickinson (10-19, 6-9 Northeast) 15-1 run. Anthony Myers-Pate responded with a 3-pointer, which primed a 22-2 run by Robert Morris to finish the game, including hitting 10 of its last 11 free throw attempts.
Lucky Jones had 13 points and 10 rebounds for Robert Morris. Myers-Pate finished with 12.
Fairleigh Dickinson trailed 26-24 after Anderson's trey and a free throw by Aaron Tate for Robert Morris with 5:14 minutes left in the first half. But the Knights closed the half on a 15-4 run — including two 3-pointers by Matt McDonald — to lead 39-30 at the break.
Scooter Gillette led FDU with 14 points.
No. 13 NC State earns 800th win, tops Pitt, 79-68
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Markeisha Gatling scored 20 points and Len'Nique Brown added 19 points, including six straight free throws in the final 90 seconds of the game as No. 13 North Carolina State beat Pittsburgh, 79-68 for the 800th victory in the program's history.
In earning their first win at Pitt in the first meeting between the teams as Atlantic Coast Conference rivals, the Wolfpack (24-5, 11-4) picked up their 24th win of the season — the 12th time in program history they've reached that milestone, and their 11th ACC victory — a milestone they now have reached 10 times.

Lt. Ford: It's strange not pulling any G-s.Inertial Dampening (or "Damping", if you prefer your inertia dry) is a piece of Applied Phlebotinum, designed to allow humans to accelerate and decelerate at high rates without becoming humorously colored paste on the walls. note Its intention is to "take away" inertial effects; i.e., when accelerating, you are not pressed back into your seat (or liquefied and wedged into your seat.) For the most part, it's an invisible seatbelt substitute for crew and cargo. Sometimes Inertial Dampening has a "lag", where a sharp turn or quick deceleration will momentarily cause a reaction (quick fall into the console or press back due to high accelerations). Inertial Dampening is generally not Tim Taylor Technology. An overloading IDF [Inertial Dampening Field] has the opposite effect of most Applied Phlebotinum, causing a greater inertial effect, usually culminating in a Star Trek Shake. Generally, however, the Star Trek Shake has no relation to the direction of inertia; i.e., the ship is traveling forward, but the crew feels a right-to-left effect.Though often left unmentioned, Inertial Dampening is a requisite side-technology to any spaceship that can turn or accelerate more quickly than a fighter jet. It's also the reason why The Bridge has No Seat Belts. Note that the physical Hand Wave that accompanies many forms of Faster-Than-Light Travel dictate that the ship does not accelerate in the traditional Newtonian or, for that matter, Einsteinian fashion, and so the inertial dampener is mostly for maneuvering and orbit changes. In hard Sci-Fi, especially written but occasionally not, a more realistic method is used to cushion acceleration shock. Immersion in a fluid equal in density to the body would theoretically cause buoyancy forces to act counter to any accelerations; this is sometimes coupled with cryonics. Some method to allow the subject to continue to breathe in the fluid would be required, be it oxygenated liquids or a circulatory gas-exchange system. Since people riding around in bathtubs are not interesting on-screen (except from a voyeur's point-of-view) this has only rarely trickled down to the big and small screens; the exploration ship Lewis and Clark in Event Horizon and presumably the cryonics pods in the Alien series are the exceptions. See also Artificial Gravity.
Maj. Sheppard: Yeah... Kinda miss it. Although at this rate of acceleration, we'd be dead by now.
Lt. Ford: Yeah?
Maj. Sheppard: Oh yeah. Without inertial dampening, we'd be hit by so many G-s, our eyes would pop, the skin would pull away from our faces, our brains would squish up to the back of our skulls, and our internal organs would be crushed into these chairs. What about that sandwich? (calmly glances at Ford, who is now looking a little green)

When people think of history, particularly about an event such as the Holocaust, they think in terms of visual images. As a history instructor who focuses upon 20th Century World History I have found the use of motion pictures, both documentary and feature films, my most essential classroom resource. So much of that history has been captured on film that people can experience crucial events for themselves. Those recorded events become shared historical memory and an integral part of their lives. Quality instruction must capitalize on both the cognitive (rational) and affective (emotional) aspects of students. Students need to make an emotional connection with the factual material being studied. And they do not get that from reading dry boring accounts of events from state-mandated texts, sapped of the richness of narrative and vision. Films provide that context.
Each year my students view over eighty films, twenty-five on World War II alone. As their teacher I act as Socratic guide and facilitator. On each film they take notes, and from their notes compose an evaluative essay. In addition, we go through an Amazon rain forest of accompanying primary and secondary documents. While there are many exceptional films available, I want to focus upon the seven key films I believe essential to understanding the Holocaust.
Selling Murder: The Killing Films of the Third Reich. The Discovery Channel, 1993. Excellent documentary on the National Socialists' Aktion T4 euthanasia program as precursor to the Holocaust.
The Nazis' Secret Killing Squads. A & E Documentary, Bill Kurtis Investigative Reports, 1999. Focuses upon the Einsatzgruppen (special action groups) and their SS leadership's prosecution at the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal by the heroic Benjamin Ferencz.
Memory of the Camps. PBS Frontline series. This is the most important film you will ever see. Filmed by British, American, and Soviet forces in 1945 as the Nazi concentration and death camps were liberated. This lost film was reconstructed and first shown on PBS in May 1985. The searing graphic images are horrific. The wry ironic narration by the late Trevor Howard perfectly magnifies this horror.
One Survivor Remembers. The powerful and moving 1995 Academy Award-winning documentary on Holocaust survivor Gerda Weissmann Klein. After showing the film to my students for over a decade I had the opportunity to meet the courageous Ms. Klein, one of the high points of my life. In 2010 she was presented the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
America and the Holocaust: Deceit and Indifference. PBS American Experience series, 1994. Exceptional documentary on how American anti-Semitism, combined with callous indifference to the fate of European refugees, led to the conscious deliberate decision of the American and British governments not to attempt rescue of European Jewry until very late in the war. Also focuses upon the tragic story of Kurt Klein and his family. He was the liberator (and later husband) of Gerda Weissmann Klein, featured in One Survivor Remembers.
Josef Mengele: Medical Madman of Auschwitz. A & E Biography series, 2000. The infamous 'angel of death' as the personification of Nazi evil.
Schindler's List. This 1993 Academy Award-winning story of redemption and rescue is my favorite movie. After viewing it for the first time, with the essential background knowledge and context provided by the previous films above, Schindler's List becomes the favorite of many of my students as reflected in their heart-felt evaluative essays.12:46 am on June 30, 2011 Email Charles Burris

Hello. I am interested in using the font as small as the one
openfirmware uses (e.g. when displaying the menu for yaboot). I thought
it could be as easy as removing the fb driver of my video card (ATI
Radeon 7500) and removing CONFIG_FONT* from kernel config, because in
the past working with sparc workstations, if I do the above, the font of
sparc's "BIOS" is used.
but it have no effect, the kernel boots with a font as big as before,
all the effect I have is I lost the ability to switch back to console
after starting X (Ctrl+Alt+F1 brings a blank screen).
Is it possible to use that small font for console?

Disabling SelinuxSelinux is a piece of software that restricts how other pieces of software work. Very few things, especially enterprise software, support it. So often you'll find you should simply outright disable it. ... and here's how!
Disable Selinux .. (right now!)run: echo 0 > /selinux/enforce * note: this only turns it off until the system is rebooted.
Disable Selinux .. (forever!)open /etc/selinux/config change "SELINUX=...." to: "SELINUX=disabled" save it, then run: echo 0 > /selinux/enforce to turn it off immeadiately also instead of waiting for reboot.

Stone Mountain, ...
My sister gave me this fabric and I just love it. This pattern is very easy with only 3 pieces. I thought it was a little plain so I added removable handmade circle flowers with covered buttons in the center to match skirt. This is my favorite outfit that I have sewn for my daughter so far. The smile on her face when she saw it let me know that she loves it too!

Oh, this is darling! The fabric is amazing and the flower very nice! So romantic!
Jul 9, 2013, 01.22 PMby Angie H

You don't have to wait for once-in-five-year elections anymore to express your anger against or appreciation of the performance of your MLA. Or, for that matter you could even rate the chief minister. A recently launched web portal 'I for India' will allow you to express your views and make a choice much ahead of the elections.
Facebook users in MP have been getting pop-ups on their pages titled 'Report Card Madhya Pradesh'. When you click this link, it takes you directly to a state-specific page of the 'I for India' web portal, where you can rate MLAs and even the chief minister of Madhya Pradesh.
Carrying the catch-line 'Your 5 minutes can shape India's next 5 years', the portal was launched on August 28 by two Mumbai-based youths --- Ankur Garg (31) and Tarun Jain (28).
The aim was to allow voters to assess the quality of services provided by their elected representatives and the portal would automatically generate a report card. "Citizens are not absolved of their duties once they are done with voting. Democracy involves a continuous and active participation in the democratic process," the makers of the platform say.
The creators of the website have also taken care to ensure that politicians or their supporters don't end up shortcircuiting the responses by repeatedly rating their bosses positively. The portal's security includes a mobile number authentication and fraud check algorithms.
A divorce, a jail term, determined foes: Bihar CM Nitish Kumar fighting a lone battle?
The divorce between Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party and Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal(U) and a few days of change in residence for Rashtriya Janata Dal's Lalu Prasad – from 10, Circular Road in Patna to the Ranchi jail in Jharkhand – have totally changed the game that is played in Bihar.
Angry with the SP, convinced that the Congress is a losing proposition, unsure of AAP's ability to win, and fearful that Mayawati may ally with the BJP in the future, Muslims have a difficult choice.

DerekNY, NYHairDark BrownNormal HairFine or Thin HairGreat Shampoo!I love this thickening shampoo! I've also used L'Oreal's thickening shampoo for Men, but it doesn't work nearly as well as Jack Dean's. My hair feels much fuller and thicker afterwards. I highly recommend it!

Illinois tips off rugged stretch against No. 2 Michigan
BY HERB GOULD firstname.lastname@example.com January 26, 2013 12:34AM
Player-of-the-year candidate Trey Burke is averaging 17.8 points and 7.2 assists for No. 2 Michigan. | Carlos Osorio~AP
Updated: February 28, 2013 6:47AM
No. 1 Duke's upset loss Wednesday at Miami means No. 2 Michigan will be poised to become the top-ranked team in the country if it wins Sunday at Illinois.
But the No. 1 mission for the Illini (15-5, 2-4 Big Ten) as they begin a difficult five-game stretch is to mind their own business.
''For us, it's about 80 percent us and 20 percent opponent right now,'' first-year Illinois coach John Groce said Friday. ''That's how you have a chance to get better, especially with a team that's learning a system and developing the habits we want them to have.''
D.J. Richardson's career night (30 points, 6-for-9 three-point shooting) headlined the Illini's 71-51 victory Tuesday at Nebraska. But Illinois is concerned about living up to its toughness-and-togetherness motto as it heads into five games that feature four ranked opponents and Wisconsin, which blew them out Jan. 12 in Madison, Wis.
''I can't hang my hat on [the Nebraska game],'' Richardson said. ''We came out together. The T-and-T showed. We have to keep coming out the same way. Be aggressive. Throw the first punch. We have a lot of ranked opponents coming up, but every team in the Big Ten's good.''
When the Illini got off to a 12-0 start, it looked like they had a chance to contend in the Big Ten. That expectation was diminished by their 1-4 league start, but the effort they showed in defeating Butler and Gonzaga might serve them well if they can keep it going.
''We see what we can do when we come out and attack right away,'' said center Nnanna Egwu, who had eight points and a career-high 10 rebounds at Nebraska. ''When we started 12-0, we got comfortable. We kind of relaxed. We thought that just by going out there, we were going to play well, and it came back to bite us.
''At Nebraska, we knew we had to go back to the way we were playing. In Maui [early in the season], we threw the first punch every game. We have to continue to play that way.''
Top performances will be needed the next couple of weeks. After Michigan, Illinois will face No. 13 Michigan State, Wisconsin, No. 7 Indiana and No. 12 Minnesota.
The Wolverines (18-1, 5-1) are led by player-of-the-year candidate Trey Burke, who's averaging 17.8 points and 7.2 assists, Tim Hardaway Jr. (16.2 ppg), Nik Stauskas (12.6 ppg) and Glenn Robinson III (12.1 ppg).
''Obviously, Michigan is a load,'' Groce said. ''[Burke] is a great kid and terrific player. His assist-to-turnover ratio is disgusting. I think the last player in the Big Ten to average 17-plus points and seven-plus assists was Magic Johnson.''
In that light, if the Illini are going to step up their game, they couldn't be choosing a better time.


text: The South Beach Pimps scenario team was born from a set of values shared by South Florida paintball players. Like many players, after ending a decade long tournament career we were done with the tournament format, but we were not finished with competitive hardcore play. We still hungered for intense, aggressive, teamwork-rich paintball. Established in 2001, we began to play scenario paintball under a variety of team names, including The South Beach Pimps. We play hard and have a blast both on and off the field. Our PIMPS are all hand picked leaders, and when you come up against us on the field, be ready for the game of your life!
