He's a charming monster . . . A macabre hero . . . A serial killer who only kills bad people Dexter Morgan has been under considerable pressure. It's just not easy being an ethical serial killer-especially while trying to avoid the unshakable suspicions of the dangerous Sergeant Doakes (who believes Dexter is a homicidal maniac . . . which, of course, he is). In an attempt to throw Doakes off his trail, Dexter has had to slip deep into his foolproof disguise. While not working as a blood-spatter analyst for the Miami Police Department, he now spends nearly all his time with his cheerful girlfriend, Rita, and her two children, sipping light beer and slowly becoming the world's first serial couch potato. But how long can Dexter play Kick the Can instead of Slice the Slasher? How long before his Dark Passenger forces him to drop the charade and let his inner monster run free? In trying times, opportunity knocks. A particularly nasty psychopath is cutting a trail through Miami-a man whose twisted technique leaves even Dexter speechless. As Dexter's dark appetite is revived, his sister, Deborah (a newly minted, tough-as-nails Miami detective) is drawn headlong into the case. It quickly becomes clear that it will take a monster to catch a monster-but it isn't until his archnemesis is abducted that Dex can finally throw himself into the search for a new plaything. Unless, of course, his plaything finds him first . . . With the incredible wit and freshness that drew widespread acclaim to Darkly Dreaming Dexter, Jeff Lindsay now takes Dexter Morgan to a new level of macabre appeal and gives us one of the most original, colorful narrators in years.

Problem with launching Diablo 2,
|Humbert | 16/04/2011 16:22:56
My problem is this: waiting for Diablo 2 to start takes about five minutes. And, as I am waiting for the game to begin, the top left corner of my screen decides to remind me about the alphabet by going through its letters one by one. How can I get this thing to behave sensibly?

FIA University - Emerging Leaders Program
New session: March 9-13, 2015 | Barcelona | 4th Edition
Application Form:
Inquiry Form:
The FIA University was presented for the first time at the Membership Benefits Forum at the FIA Annual General Assembly in New Delhi, December 2011. The project grew in 2012 by listening to clubs' expectations and demand. A grant from the FIA Foundation to the FIA Strategic Programmes on Road Safety and Capacity Building meant that the idea could be turned into a reality. 2013 has seen the delivery of two Emerging Leaders Programs and the Strategic Lobbying program in The Hague, with great feedback from participants.
The question is what exactly is the FIA University? What does the new programme hope to achieve and how will it operate?
"It is a bit like the corporate universities that a lot of companies now have," says Agustí Milà, the FIA's manager of membership Services and Business Development. "These are not like traditional universities, where students go to attend programs. Corporate universities are structures within companies that recognise that training is a key part of what it needs to do to achieve its strategic goals."
The FIA needs to remain relevant to its members, creating value for them through partnering. With that aim, the FIA University was created in 2011.
In 2012 the FIA University concentrated in developing contents for its 3 main pillars (1-Strategy & Leadership, 2-Lobbying & Public Policy as well as 3-Functional Expertise), giving priority to 1 and 2 for 2013, and participated in several FIA events (see Progress Report May 2013).
In 2013 Thierry Willemarck has continued to provide his mentorship, ESADE Business School has cooperated on a consultant basis and as a provider, and the FIA Foundation has also provided both financial support through the Strategic Capacity Building Programme and know-how on Road Safety teaching.
The FIA University has changed its status from a project in development into a reality present in the FIA family daily life. Region II has consistently supported sending students from clubs within the region.
The FIA University has run 3 programs in 2013:
On top of that, the FIA University has participated in the following events:
Continue developing Curricula (capacity building for clubs, Road safety) and Governance for the FIA University. The proven programs will be repeated and/or adapted to regional level to facilitate participation (ie, travel or language).

Former Patriots aren't expecting warm welcome
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Adam Vinatieri has warmed up to those chilly New England receptions.
Sometimes, he hears cheers. Sometimes, he hears boos.
It's all part of life as an ex-Pat in one of football's fiercest rivalries — even for a kicker who signed with the Colts eight years ago.
"It's the (Red) Sox-Yankees, if you will, that kind of thing where I think both teams respect each other and know what comes to the table," Vinatieri said.
The story lines in this annual series have traditionally started and ended with the quarterbacks — Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and now Andrew Luck.
But the ties run so much deeper, especially given Indianapolis' ever-expanding list of former Patriots.
In addition to Vinatieri, there's cornerback Darius Butler, who may replace injured starter Greg Toler in Saturday night's playoff game, with the winner advancing to the AFC championship game. Butler was New England's second-round pick in 2009, out of UConn, and since joining the Colts in September 2012, he's intercepted eight passes and returned three for scores.
"You've always got something to prove," said Butler, who was cut by the Patriots at the end of training camp in 2011. "And it's always special when you're facing a former team."
Safety Sergio Brown spent two seasons with New England (12-4) before landing with Indy last season, too. If LaRon Landry doesn't clear the concussion protocol before kickoff, the special teams standout could be starting, too.
And on Monday, the Colts added another New England fan favorite — receiver Deion Branch, the Super Bowl MVP in the Patriots' last title run. Saturday will be his first trip to New England's visiting locker room, and Branch isn't entirely sure about how he'll be treated by the fans who warmly embraced him for so many years.
"I think so far it's been a little 75-25 (positive)," Branch said, based on what he's heard about the fans' reaction to signing with Indy (12-5). "Most everybody understands and they respect that, but then you have those die-hard fans."
Massachusetts native Matt Hasselbeck is one of three Colts players — along with left tackle Anthony Caston
See COLTS, Page 9B
zo and right tackle Gosder Cherilus — who played at Boston College, and he knows enough about the city and its fans to know the boos are nothing personal.
"It's probably a sign of respect, deep down," said Hasselbeck, who was a New England ball boy when his father, Don, played for the Patriots. "I think Adam is one of the all-time sports icons in that area, I know he was to me when I was in college there. Those kicks, especially in the snow, were special moments."
Vinatieri's history didn't matter to some fans when he returned to Foxborough for the first time in November 2006. While former teammates and team owner Robert Kraft traded handshakes with Vinatieri, he heard boos along with the cheers. It probably won't be much different Saturday night.
New England's ties to Indy are limited. Coach Bill Belichick started his NFL coaching career with the Colts back in 1975 when the team was still in Baltimore, and offensive line coach Dante Scarnecchia worked on the Colts staff in 1989 and 1990. The only former Colt on New England's roster is receiver Austin Collie.
"I look forward to seeing guys that I've built relationships with there," Collie said. "But to me it's just - we've got to win. It's all about advancing. That's what my mindset is."
The Colts concur.
"I've been over on that sideline for a lot of years, too, and I know what they bring to the table. They'll have their team ready to play. The fans will be loud and crazy. It's playoff football," Vinatieri said. "That's what it's supposed to be like."
Notes: Receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey (hamstring) was the only Colts' player who did not practice Thursday. Coach Chuck Pagano said he expected everybody except Heyward-Bey to play Saturday night, though Landry still has to be cleared because of his concussion.

Guest post by MamaRed Knight of mamaredknight.com.
So you've heard about Pinterest, right? It's the latest up-and-comer in the world of social media. I know, like you needed another social media thang to keep up with, right?
A quick overview
Remember those corkboards that hung in your room with all your favorite things you wanted to have? Or maybe you saw one of them at the grocery store with an ad for a local business or a room for rent. Or maybe there was one in your college dorm room looking for a study partner, a date or a roomie.
Well that's essentially what Pinterest is: a visual "corkboard-like" image-based social media tool that is taking the world by storm. In fact, it has grown more quickly than any other social media tool to date AND drives more traffic and more purchases than the Big 4 (Facebook, Twitter, Google and LinkedIn). Combined.
Launched in 2010, the visual images have propelled it to over 48.7 million users. That's a bunch, eh?
The majority of the U.S. based users are women (about 70-80% at the time of this post) from 24-35 who love to build pinboards with their favorite images (pins) and share them with others (called a repin). In the beginning, the majority of the pins were either retail type thangs or recipes.
As it is grown, that has expanded to include products and services of all types, how-to videos (yup, you can post videos too… lots of people don't realize that!), favorite music, realtors sharing what they have available in their market (including all the wonderful things to do in their area).
Now coaches, speakers, authors, healers and other service-oriented businesses are jumping on the bandwagon and driving traffic to their blogs by turning what they know and do into visuals that grab the eyeballs (and the pocketbook too).
So how do you put it to use for YOU and YOUR blog?
Let's say you've done some research, checked your business plan, reviewed your marketing strategy and decided Pinterest is right for you and your business… How can you drive more eyeballs to your blog and your offers and your awesome sauce?
Tip 1: Make sure every post has at least 1 image
Since Pinterest is a totally visual site, you must have at least 1 image for every post or page you want shared. There are all sorts of fancy schmancy ways to have multiple images and let your visitor choose which one they want to share.
Don't worry about it when you get started. Simply make sure there is a pinnable image in your post.
An extra for you: Not really a great photographer or artist? You can create a series of tips by creating a background in Powerpoint or Keynote (or any of the free alternatives) and save it as an image. Voila. An image for your post!
Tip 2: Make sure you pin FROM your blog TO Pinterest
Pinterest provides a nifto neato keeno PinIt option that you can use to pin your posts (or any others you find while noodling around on the Internet). Make sure you have that loaded and ready to go when you're blogging.
Why? Because it kindly picks up the URL of your post and adds that to your pin! When someone says "hey, I like that" and repins it to their account, your URL goes along for the ride! Good stuff, right?
Although pinners are primarily focused on the image you share, make sure you include a description that lures them to great stuff and getting more of your amazingness.
An extra for you: Get your PinIt button from the Pinterest website… it doesn't cost a thing except a couple of minutes of your time!
Tip 3: Give others a way to pin your goodies
Most of us know it's a good thing to give people a way to share your goodies and it's taken a while for many of the common social sharing tools to add Pinterest to their list of options.
Believe me, you don't want to count on your visitors' having the PinIt button! They may not. Or they may forget. Or any number of other "excuses" they'll make.
Make sure they have a way to pin at the top or bottom (or both!) of your posts. If your social sharing tools don't include Pinterest either check for another one that does (I use Trackable Social Share Icons, although they've recently announced they're no longer supporting the plugin… durn it!).
An extra for you: Grab one of the options from the Pinterest website for adding share buttons and even specific pins or pinboards to your site. Might as well show off your best stuff, right?
Tip 4: Pick your Pinboard names carefully
People are on the run, scanning the images you've shared and if your pinboard (or "board") names don't grab their attention, they'll move on, lickety split and not give you a second thought! So make sure you're giving your guests a reason to click on your board and check out your goodies.
Once someone clicks on your pinboard, make sure what is shared matches the board name. Nothing irritates people more than checking out something like "Best Blogging Tips" and finding a pictures of your favorite hairstyles or wedding plans. Keep it organized and consistent to keep people coming back over and over again.
An extra for you: Add a description of your board when you create it so people know what to expect. It's kind of like describing your menu so people know they want to join you for that nummee dinner you're planning.
Tip 5: Organize your Pinterest boards
The top "real estate" in the Pinterest world is what is on the top 2 rows of pinboards. Make sure that is where you put your most valuable information and the stuff that is most likely to entice people to your blog and your offers.
An extra for you: If you want to get even more traffic to your website, put your very best stuff in the middle of the first two rows and use colors like oranges, reds and browns to attract attention. You can even create custom board covers that grab people's attention!

Josh Betley - Lights and Outlets 1

fax: (715) 836-2900
EAU CLAIRE — The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire has been awarded one to three AmeriCorps*VISTA slots as part of a VISTA grant awarded to the Wisconsin Campus Compact K-16 Service-Learning Project.
Low-income, school-age children and others in the Chippewa Valley will benefit from the grant, which was the nation's largest VISTA grant in fall 2003, Donald Mowry, director of UW-Eau Claire's Center for Service-Learning, said, noting 35 AmeriCorps*VISTA members will serve as service-learning coordinators throughout Wisconsin.
"The VISTA members at UW-Eau Claire will help expand and develop partnerships among higher education institutions, low-income communities, community agencies serving low-income families and K-12 educators in the Chippewa Valley," Mowry said.
Middle- and high school-level literacy and tutoring needs that are currently underserved will be a focus of the VISTA members, Mowry said.
"College students do volunteer and complete service-learning projects through volunteer coordinators at Eau Claire's three public middle schools," Mowry said. "But it's primarily on an individual basis. The VISTA members will help strengthen and expand current efforts."
One member will help UW-Eau Claire's School of Education imbed service-learning into the education of future K-16 teachers, Mowry said. A second will help expand literacy and tutoring programs for middle-school youth, and help develop and coordinate trainings, orientations and reflection activities for high school and college volunteer tutors and mentors. In addition, a member will help the Family Resource Center develop programs, including volunteer development, program evaluation and school partnerships, he said, adding that programs will be planned in a way that will allow them to continue after VISTA members complete their work.
"Everybody wins," Mowry said. "University students will gain real-life experience in their field through service-learning, faculty will have help imbedding service-learning into courses, and there will be more and stronger collaborations among K-12 educators, non-profit agencies, local government and neighborhoods."
The one-year grant may be renewed for three years, Mowry
said. Local VISTA members will work from an office on UW-Eau Claire campus and
maybe in another community location.
Wisconsin Campus Compact is a coalition of 28 college and university presidents dedicated to strengthening civic engagement and service learning partnerships among Wisconsin's colleges and universities and their communities.
Wisconsin Campus Compact is recruiting VISTA members to serve as service-learning coordinators. A college degree or equivalent is required.
For more information, contact Mowry at email@example.com, or project director Carie Goral at firstname.lastname@example.com. AmeriCorps*VISTA information is available at www.americorps.org.

Paul Ince is reportedly in discussions with Blackpool over the vacant manager's job at Bloomfield Road.
The Seasiders are still searching for a new manager to replace Michael Appleton following his departure to Blackburn last month.
Steve Thompson is currently in caretaker charge at Bloomfield Road, but the club are thought to be keen to bring in a new manager as soon as possible.
Blackpool have been linked with several names since the departure of Appleton, but have so far been unable to bring in a replacement
Ince is now thought to be in pole position for the role after opening talks with the club's hierarchy.
The former England international is keen to get back into management and the fact that he is unattached appeals to Blackpool.
If Ince takes over at Blackpool it will see him link up with his son Tom at Bloomfield Road.

Notes from a California theme dinner recently.
1996 Henriot Brut now showing some colour, nice yeasty nose, sweet
entry, crisp finish. Served with Read Island oysters.
2006 Claudia Springs Pinot Noir Anderson Valley Klindt Vineyard
chard from a Zin producer! Good colour, a fruit driven obviously
pinot nose, mostly blueberries, then a sweet fruit entry, good
balance, medium long, a not overly complex but very enjoyable ready to
drink Pinot. Served with seared foie gras and truffle crisps.
1991 Dominus cocoa and spice in the nose of this garnet wine, with a
decided dill component, mellow with medium body, good length, elegant
and drinking at peak. This would make an excellent claret imposter in
a blind tatsing.
1996 Dominus rubber and plum in this nose, sweet entry, lots of
stuffing here and really excellent length. No rush, sweeter than the
91 and this was one of the few that wouldnt have much success posing
as Bordeaux. No rush on this one.
Two excellent wines, served with duck breast with port wine reduction.
1987 Opus One funky at first although it did clean up its act after
much swirling and showed pretty good fruit and significant tannins,
but it never had a chance against the next wine.
1987 Mondavi Reserve Not quite as dark as the Opus, to my surprise,
but added facets of the nose included spice, vanilla and cocoa. Very
tasty with a long interesting finish with espresso bean and plum.
With lamb shanks and garlic mash.
2003 Taylors LBV Port popped so wed have something with the cheese.
Dark, chocolately notes, good stuffing, a good LBV.

BBC radio documentary on same-sex couple coping with cancer and mortality
BB reader Jane Lowers sends along this beautiful BBC Radio documentary about two men in California who have been together for decades, now facing one's terminal pancreatic cancer diagnosis. "I know both of them; Eric was a columnist at a radiology magazine I used to work for," says Jane. "Their house is every inch as insane as described. But the story -- trying to decide how to deal with a diagnosis, how to use the time you have, and how it can affect relationships -- was very well-described, I thought."
The Decent People: LGBT pride in the former Yugoslavia
Years ago during the reign of Milosevic in Serbia I wrote an essay called "Decent people". It was about that 80 percent of Serbian people, the classic silent majority, who lived in denial of the genocide in Srebrenica, the snipers in Sarajevo, the shelling in Dubrovnik.
These so called decent people who could not grasp cruel political and military reality. Eventually the damage to daily life became impossible; the decent people could not go through with their charade of normality as postmen, engineers and dentists. On October 5th 2000 a million people took to the streets in Belgrade and physically deposed the tyrant.
However, time stopped then in Serbia. An October 6th never dawned for a bewildered Serbia, not even 12 years later, on the anniversary. Milosevic died behind the bars in the Hague, my Yugoslav-era parents are deceased, my postman is on pension but the inhabitants of the Serbian parliament today are the next generation of those decent people. No painful truths were admitted and confronted; there was a rebellion of the decent, but not a thorough change in the society.
Typically, a few days ago the new elected premiere of Serbia forbade the Gay Pride annual parade. He claimed that 80 percent of the Serbian population is against gay manifestations, and warned against the risky and inevitable gay-bashing that would follow in the streets. This new premiere is an old member from the deposed Milosevic' s party. Crushing the aspirations of Serbian gays has become routine, and he has already handled the trouble successfully before.
Associated Press: As dozens of Eagle Scouts resign, Boy Scouts of America ignores them
I recently posted a couple of articles featuring heartfelt letters from people who had earned their Eagle Scout awards as boys, but no longer wanted to be associated with the Boy Scouts of America and its rule banning gay scouts and GBLT troop leaders. Instead, they were choosing to return their awards to the BSA, in hopes that scouting's national organization would recognize that this rule isn't something all scouts want. In fact, many wrote about their frustration with what they see as the BSA failing to live up to the values that scouting teaches.
As of August 4, more than 80 former Eagle Scouts have sent photos of their resignation letters to the Eagle Scouts Returning Our Badges Tumblr blog, where the letters and the protest they represent are being archived.
Reading the comments that have turned up here at BoingBoing, I get the sense that there are many more Eagle Scouts—and active Boy Scout troops—that also disagree with the BSA, but don't want to resign from local connections that don't reflect the national organization's bigotry. In fact, the Northern Star Council, which represents 75,000 scouts in Minnesota and Wisconsin, is openly bucking Boy Scouts of America policy, and has been for years.
The Associated Press ran a piece yesterday looking at this dissent and the effect—or, it seems, lack thereof—it is having on BSA policy.
Deron Smith, the Boy Scouts' national spokesman, said there was no official count at his office of how many medals had been returned. He also noted that about 50,000 of the medals are awarded each year.
Beyond the Eagle Scout protests, the Boy Scouts' reaffirmation of the no-gays policy has drawn condemnation from liberal advocacy groups, newspaper editorialists and others. In Washington state, Republican gubernatorial candidate Rob McKenna, an Eagle Scout, joined his Democratic opponent, Jay Inslee, in suggesting the policy be changed.
But overall there has been little evidence of any new form of outside pressure that might prompt the Scouts to reconsider.
The leadership of the Scouts' most influential religious partners - notably the Mormons, Roman Catholics and Southern Baptists - appears to support the policy. And even liberal politicians seem reluctant to press the issue amid a tense national election campaign.
Eagle Scouts make a Tumblr for protest letters
Earlier this week, I posted a couple batches of letters from grown-up Eagle Scouts who chose to resign their hard-earned, elite awards in protest of the Boy Scouts of America's policy banning gay and atheist scouts and troop leaders.
I'm still getting letters in the mail. These things are coming in faster than I can update the posts. Which is why I'm very glad that several former Eagle Scouts have taken matters into their own hands, starting a Tumblr that can play host to all these letters, and all the ones going forward.
Burke Stansbury put the site together. In his own resignation letter, he wrote:
I am not proud to be affiliated with an organization that excludes people based on their sexuality. Many of my closest friends are gay, lesbian, or transgender and it pains me to think that I invested time in an organization that prohibits their membership. It's a shameful, bigoted policy. Plain and simple.
I'll be contacting people who have sent me letters recently about whether it's okay to forward their emails to Burke. And if you'd like your letter to be archived on the Tumblr, there's an easy-to-use submission form right on the site.

CF Industries' earnings slump on weak fertilizer market
5:23 PM MST | February 18, 2014 | Lindsay Frost
Weak fertilizer prices pushed CF Industries' earnings lower in the fourth quarter, with the company reporting net income of $325.8 million, down 30% year-over-year (YOY). However, reported earnings of $5.71/share were higher than analyst consensus of $4.49/share, as compiled by Thomson Reuters (New York). Sales of $1.3 billion were down 10% YOY. "The earnings power of CF was demonstrated again this quarter as we generated strong Ebitda during a period characterized by global urea prices declining to floor levels," says Tony Will, president and...

As of today, our loans to small businesses:
Join Our Mailing List
The storm may have long passed, but the economic impact is still taking a toll on small businesses throughout New Jersey. UCEDC is ready to help with its Business Growth Working Capital Loan program, offering up to $25,000 at 2% for five years with no collateral requirements. This program was made possible through generous grants from Investors Bank and the Hurricane Sandy New Jersey Relief Fund.
The Business Growth Loan program is designed to provide the boost that small businesses need to get out of the no-growth rut of the post-Sandy economy. The program features a two-week turn-around (after receiving a completed application), no collateral requirements, no prepayment penalties, and no application or processing fees.
For larger capital needs, we continue to offer loans up to $250,000 with conventional interest rates and processing periods.
Call us today at 908-527-1166 to speak with our loan officers - we're ready for your call. More details are available here.
If you own a small business in New Jersey or are just thinking about taking the plunge, UCEDC can help you start, grow and thrive.
As a statewide nonprofit economic development corporation with five locations throughout the state, UCEDC is your business growth partner providing loans, training, and government contracting assistance to established and start-up businesses.
With a variety of financing options, including SBA microloans, Community Advantage 7a loans, and 504 loans, UCEDC may be the answer when conventional lending is not available.
Entrepreneurial training and free government contracting workshops will give you the edge you need to succeed.
Are you ready to purchase or construct your own building? Is it time to expand the building you already own? Would investing in a major piece of equipment take your business to the next level?
The SBA 504 Commercial Real Estate and Major Equipment Loan Program may be the financing option you need to achieve your goals.
UCEDC works in partnership with a commercial lender to offer you long-term financing at below-market fixed rates. With as little as 10% down and the ability to finance fees and closing costs, the SBA 504 program lets you save cash to invest into more productive business uses.
LEARN MORE about eligibility, costs and the application process.
If you have big plans for your small business, our new SBA 7a Community Advantage program may be the answer.
UCEDC is one of only 40 lenders in the nation to offer the SBA financing program, designed to encourage business growth in under-served communities. Long-term loans of up to $250,000 are available to start-up (in operation less than two years) and established businesses.
Funds can be used for a wide variety of purposes including working capital; furniture/fixtures, machinery and equipment; land acquisition for commercial purposes; construction or renovation for privately owned commercial properties; and business acquisition.

Gov. Rick Perry's Remarks at the 40th Anniversary of the Governor's Commission for Women
Thank you Anita. I often said during the last campaign that the best reason to re-elect me governor is so Anita Perry can be your First Lady for four more years. It is great to see such dedicated, visionary women standing up for a better Texas and offering themselves in service, such as Justice O'Neill, Chairman Morrison and each Texas woman who serves honorably on the Texas Women's Commission.
A lot has happened in the past 40 years. The first woman ever appointed to the United States Supreme Court, Sandra Day O'Connor, served our nation for close to a quarter century before recently retiring. More women than ever before are serving in Congress and as the heads of corporations. Our places of work have been transformed by family-friendly policies that recognize the dual role of worker and parent played by many women in our society. And they even play women's hockey in the Winter Olympics. The point is, I believe I can look a young woman in the eye and truthfully tell her that she can be anything she wants to be in the Texas of the 21st Century. I'm not sure John Connally could have said the same when he formed the Governor's Commission for Women in 1967.
One of the central focuses of this commission over the last six years has been on the issue of women's health. With a domestic violence awareness campaign you distributed 20,000 bumper stickers that said, "no excuse for abuse." You provided cell phones to domestic violence shelters, and were part of an information campaign to distribute information to law enforcement and service providers concerning domestic battery. And you have no greater partner in ending the tragedy of domestic violence than First Lady Anita Perry. You have helped launch an awareness campaign to increase childhood immunizations. I am proud that this effort, along with an executive order of a couple of years ago, has played a crucial role in drastically raising childhood immunization rates in Texas. And you have helped women battle the tragedy of breast and cervical cancer, highlighting the importance of annual check-ups and good preventative care. And as a state we have provided funding for this effort to ensure more women get an early diagnosis and a fighting chance against the disease of cancer.
Let me talk a little bit more about the importance of fighting this dreadful disease. There is hardly a person in this room who hasn't been touched in some form or fashion by this disease, whether it is a neighbor or co-worker, a mother or father, a precious child, or your own struggle against this disease. 95,000 Texans will hear those awful words this year, "you have cancer." 34,000 will lose the fight, leaving empty the dreams of a fuller life. I have proposed a $3 billion research fund because, while progress has been made, there is a ton of promising cancer research that goes unfunded every year. With $300 million a year over ten years, we can put enough money into this fight to create large collaborative research projects amongst our medical institutions. This kind of research synergy is vital. I proposed a method of finance that, unlike a bond proposal, doesn't dry up after ten years- the sale of the lottery. With the estimated return on the sale of the lottery, we can earn $300 million more on interest payments than we get each year from the lottery itself. And that is without touching the corpus of the fund. The alternative proposal, which is to sell bonds, just came back with the fiscal note. Because of the great cost, 50 percent of the money would go to cancer research and 50 percent would go to private bankers. With the sale of the lottery, transaction costs would only represent about one percent of what we would generate for cancer research over the next ten years. And the fact is lottery revenues have a proven track record of declining with time. Investing sales dividends in the markets is a much surer bet with a proven record for growth over time.
But even if you put the money aside for a second, think about the difference we can make. 40 years ago we hadn't even put a man on the moon. Today we have so many scientific advances from the space program it's hard to even quantify. If we invest in cancer research, who knows what medical advances we will pioneer, who knows what gene therapies we will develop and what treatments we will create that will save lives forty years from now. I think of little Marin McGrath. At the age of two she was diagnosed with brain cancer. A year or so later the doctors told her family that she was cancer free, only for it to return and her young life, and all her potential to be lost at the precious age of four. I think of someone in the limelight like Elizabeth Edwards whose cancer just returned, or former presidential candidate Paul Tsongas who we lost to cancer. And I think of Ann Richards, who sadly lost her battle last year to cancer of the esophagus. Cancer doesn't discriminate based on age, income, race or fame. It destroys our wealthiest families and our poorest homes. It is a state, national and international tragedy. So I say, for those 95,000 Texans, let's do something about it. Let's fund the research that can give them hope, and that can save our loved ones.
I would be remiss if, in mentioning Governor Richards, I didn't also mention the school that bears her name: the Ann Richard's School for Young Women Leaders. As part of the Austin Independent School District, and through the help of private funding, this school will open its doors this fall to 800 young girls. With a rigorous curriculum, high standards, and a focus on the developing sciences, it will prepare the young women leaders who will one day run our state and nation, our schools and our corporate board rooms. In recognition of their efforts, I want to ask Ellen Richards, as well as Commissioner Keely Appleton, Justice O'Neill and the First Lady Anita Perry to join me on this stage for a special recognition.
Today Ellen we would like present $1,000 check on behalf of the Governor's Commission for Women, as well a porcelain memento, in memory of your mother, Governor Ann Richards and in support of this new school. Thank you, and God bless you.

When it comes to social media monitoring, are you getting the whole picture?
Guest post by Lisa Davis, director of marketing at SMWF Gold Sponsors, Marketwire Sysomos. Nobody said social media monitoring was easy, she writes. There are billions of conversations taking place across blogs, social networks and news sites – all in real time.
Little wonder that the thought of diving deep into those discussions in an attempt to analyze what's being said, spot trends and identify the most influential voices and opinions is often overwhelming.
For those who have already taken the plunge, it can be all too easy to find yourself neck-deep in unfamiliar waters. You've extracted a wealth of information and statistics from a host of monitoring and trending tools, yet trying to piece it together in search of "the big picture" is difficult at best.
The most effective, efficient and intelligent social media monitoring and analytics efforts are those that let you see what's happening to your company and your brand with a 360-degree view of the landscape. You don't need answers to just one question, but many questions. After all, you're looking for the big picture, the whole story, and not just bits and pieces.
Here's a scenario: You've just launched a new line of athletic apparel in North America and Western Europe. Naturally, you want to know if your communications and promotional efforts are building buzz around the products and, more importantly, how those efforts are affecting sales.
Make no mistake, there are a lot of tools available to monitor and measure social media. Many of them are fantastic, intuitive tools, and many of them are free. But they become somewhat of a mismatched set when you pool them together in search of a complete and integrated solution for social media monitoring, engagement and analytics. If you trust your efforts to a disparate set of tools, some to track conversations, others to identify trends and still others to engage, then you're probably working inefficiently, and much too hard. What's more, you're not getting the whole story.
Aristotle said it best some 2,000 years ago: The whole is more than the sum of its parts. Who'd have known he was talking about the benefits of holistic, complete-picture thinking when it comes to monitoring and measuring your social media efforts? To truly gain the intelligence and insight you need to make smarter business and strategic decisions, you need a 360-degree view and a holistic approach to measurement. You need more than just great data; you need context and perspective in order to act, react and plan ahead.
PS: Why not find out what Plato has to teach us about finding social media influencers?
Jeff Cann, Manager of Accounts, Marketwire Sysomos will be taking part in the "Listening, Analysing & Managing Social Media Traffic" discussion on 29 March, day one of Social Media World Forum Europe 2011. For more information see the event agenda.

Beak Trimming Question...
Well, I have been thinking about this and I was just wondering if all domestic birds need their beaks trimmed from time to time.
Years and Years ago when I had my first tiel...I never thought about this and his beak never looked over grown.
So how would I know if my birds beaks are too long?
Re: Beak Trimming Question...
Well, I also had Tiels and never had this issue either, but Tiels love cuttle bones, which helps to trim their beaks. But most parrots even smaller ones like my Senegal rarely uses either of the cuttle bones that I have placed in her cage. So when I have her wings cliiped & nails done, I automatically have her beak trimmed as well.
Re: Beak Trimming Question...
Personally i have never had to ever trim a birds beak. If you have a healthy parrot that has a well balanced diet & also has a lot of chewing toys, I don't feel there is a need.
However there are times a parrot needs a trim & most likely it is health related.
Anatomy, Care, and Diseases of Bird Beaks
Re: Beak Trimming Question...
It is very rare that a healthy well cared for bird would ever need a beak trim. However, I run a mobile bird grooming service, and so I frequently encounter birds that need beak work. Usually tiels or quakers with fatty liver disease, or improperly handfed birds whose beaks are slightly crooked and therefor do not wear down naturally. IF you ever encounter a bird that needs beak work, it should be done by a trained professional that understand beak growth, diseases, and how that particular species beak is suppose to appear naturally. THE BEST OPTION IS PREVENTION. Give them lots of toys and wood to chew and you shouldn't need a beak trim. If you do have a bird that needs a trim, you should take it to an experienced avian vet. Beak trimmings can cause way more damage than good at times. Find someone very knowledgable on parrots (and beaks inparticular) and have them take a look. For example... blue crown conures have a natural long point at the end of the upper beak, and some people think they need to be trimmed, when they do not. Macaws, toos, eclectus, tiels, quakers, etc... each beak has slight variations that need to be maintained naturally... I don't ever recomend trimming your own birds beak. I spent several years learning and practicing beak manipulation inbabies, beak trims in adults, and I worked at a vet clinic and learned from a talented Avian vet, along with a very skilled breeder, and there are still some beaks I won't touch.
Life is what happens while you're busy making plans.
Re: Beak Trimming Question...
If you open a birds beak and look at the upper mandible where the lower beak meets it you will see a taper off and a line running accross.... that line should be straight accross and even... if it isn't, you can be sure that particular bird will require beak trims to straighten it out... once straight no more beak work should be necessary.
Life is what happens while you're busy making plans.
Re: Beak Trimming Question...
I'll tell you, it sure helps when they bite you after they have had their beak trimmed, it's not quite as bad. I know my Sennie could easily break the skin with her needle sharp beak. But after the grooming, even a hard bite didn't break the sKin.
I LOVE the mobile bird grooming thing. I used them the first time a couple of weeks ago and man it was worth every cent. Great people, and what a relief not to have to load my bird up and head for the vets office.
Re: Beak Trimming Question...
I was of the impression that beaks were designed to do specific jobs & unless the beak was overgrown there was no real need for trimming. Same goes for the nails. I don't feel the need to trim any of my birds beaks or nails but i guess each to their own. I always offer correct perches & they get heaps of chewing & groom things that help keep beak & nails trimmed naturally.
Re: Beak Trimming Question...
Most of my birds never even require nail trims. They don't get too long, but certain birds toe nails get VERY sharp. If you raise babies you know that before they ever fledge their nails get so needle sharp that they draw blood standing on your arm. (Before they even perch) and if you keep birds as pets, you know that toe nails that sharp make it hard to enjoy handling them. So, I file the little tips a bit to make it less likely for them to draw blood on new owners. (Hard to sell a bird that is unpleasant to hold). Even in breeder birds I make sure that the toe nails of the males aren't sharp enough to draw blood on the hen.... sharp enough to hold on, but not too sharp.
Life is what happens while you're busy making plans.
Re: Beak Trimming Question...
The mobile bird groomer laughed when she saw me and I asked if they were going to trim my Sennie's nails. She she asked if I had looked at ly arms lately. I looked at both my forearms and they looked like two pin cushions except with little spots of blood all over my arms. So she really did need a trimming and she is only 18 months old.
Re: Beak Trimming Question...
Like i said i never feel the need to trim nails, even my babies don't seem to need their nails trimmed either. By the time my chicks go on the market they have been used to their grooming products & their nails don't seem sharp at all. I have never had a bird rejected because it's nails are sharp.
I find that a terrified bird will grip on for dear life & sink the nails in but if they are calm they will usually just rest their feet on my arm or hand. But i suppose some people have very sensitive skin & would require their birds nails trimmed.

Well, she finally got it.
After months of rumors and speculation, HBO officially announced Monday that The Comeback will be returning to the network for a six-episode limited series this fall. The 2005 series followed Lisa Kudrow as D-list TV star Valerie Cherish trying desperately to make a career comeback while filming a reality show. Production will begin later this month in Los Angeles with Michael Patrick King (Sex in the City), Dan Bucatinsky (Scandal), and Kudrow all reprising their roles as executive producers.

WASHINGTON, August 9, 2013 —With the season premieres of "Hell on Wheels" and "Breaking Bad" this weekend, the network goes a long way in living up to its catch phrase, "AMC, something more." Add to these shows "The Walking Dead," Mad Men" and "The Killing," and AMC easily rivals any of the major broadcast networks in quality scripted programming.
"Breaking Bad" continues its fifth and final season Sunday night at 9 p.m. For those few unfamiliar with the show, "Breaking Bad" is the multi Emmy winning drama about Walter White, a struggling high school chemistry teacher who is diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer.
SEE RELATED: TV tonight: CMAs, Mad Men, Game of Thrones and finale of Shameless
Concerned with the financial security of his family after he dies, Walter utilizes his considerable knowledge of chemistry to make the purest and most lucrative form of methamphetamine on the market. But Walter soon finds out the life of a drug dealer is far removed from his bucolic suburban life, and no place for ethics.
Watching Walter White's transformation from a mild mannered teacher to a drug kingpin is an adventurous and often dirty ride unlike any other on TV. With the southwest as the setting for "Breaking Bad," the result is a beautifully shot and morally ambiguous jaunt that we wish would never end.
If you are among those who don't understand the hype and anticipation for the final eight episodes of "Breaking Bad," never fear. AMC is airing the entire first half of season five starting at 12:30 p.m. on Sunday afternoon.
Watching the final episodes of "Breaking Bad" will be like reading the last few chapters of a good book. The closer we get to the end, the more we dread its arrival. No matter how much we want to know the ending, we lament its inevitable arrival.
SEE RELATED: TV tonight: 'Walking Dead' finale and last episode of 'The Bible'
The other AMC marathon airing this weekend is the entire second season of "Hell on Wheels," starting at 11 a.m. Saturday morning. Like the "Breaking Bad" marathon, it is immediately followed by the season premiere.
"Hell on Wheels" is a period drama about the construction of America's first transcontinental railroad immediately following the Civil War. In January of 2012 "Hell on Wheels" was AMC's second-highest rated original series behind "The Walking Dead," averaging three million viewers per episode.
For this reason, it is hard to understand why AMC moved "Hell on Wheels" to Saturday night at 9 p.m. Is AMC resigned to abandoning the series to the Saturday night burn off graveyard like the major networks, or do they know something we don't?
There is little competition on Saturday nights, but the TV audience is much smaller. For the viewer's sake, let's hope enough "Hell on Wheels" fans make the transition to the new Saturday night time slot to sustain it, because it is one hell of a show.
Don't tune in to "Hell on Wheels" expecting a Ken Burns historical documentary. Although it is obvious considerable effort has been made to portray the era accurately, the focus is on the messy divergence of ethnicities forced to work together despite their differences.
Fresh from the fight, veterans from both sides of the Civil War find themselves working side by side, a formula that is as volatile as the long standing rivalry between the Irish Catholics and German Protestants represented on the show. Add to the mix newly freed slaves and the requisite women of ill repute, and "Hell on Wheels" practically writes itself.
The post civil war era is one of America's most tumultuous, especially on the lawless frontier. The mix of north and south, black and white and immigrant and Indian characters alone makes for compelling TV. Add to it a boom town atmosphere where the progress of the railroad trumps all other agendas, and the result is a show rich with possibilities.
"Breaking Bad" and "Hell on Wheels" are both masterpieces in their own right, and conclusive proof that AMC is truly something more.

My default DNS on my router is set to DynDNS. If I set the router as default DNS on my pc, it would use DynDNS as the DNS. Then what if I set Google Public DNS as DNS on my pc, and DynDNS on my router, which DNS will it use?

Ask Ubuntu is a question and answer site for Ubuntu users and developers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Your all-in-one-router (effectively also DNS+DHCP+Switch, etc.) is just a 'relay' device in this. It needs another DNS server to relay your DNS queries to and this is called a recursive lookup. PCs can 'ask' these DNS queries either to your router, or they can talk to another one on the internet directly if you want to, e.g.
The router might see the queries passing, but unless it intercepts it, it will just happily pass that as all other traffic you send into the world via it.
