With Champagne, fireworks and more than a few tears, a sellout crowd of the 49er Faithful bid a wistful and exuberant "so long" to the Stick on Monday night.
"I told (my wife), I didn't cry for our wedding, but I might cry for this," said Eddie Cano, 32, of El Paso, Texas, a lifelong 49ers fan whose wife, Ida, surprised him with tickets to what is likely to be the final game at Candlestick Park before the 53-year-old stadium is demolished.
Cano was among the thousands of fans who made the pilgrimage to Candlestick to savor the final regular-season hours of the much-maligned but much-loved behemoth by the bay. It was a classic San Francisco football scene around the tailgaters and in the stadium: grilled oysters and Anchor Steam beer, with plenty of red-and-gold flags flapping in the breeze as the 49ers held on for a heart-pumping victory over the Atlanta Falcons after trailing in the first half.
Fans were mostly orderly as they filed out of the stadium, apparently heeding the plea flashing on the scoreboard just before the game ended: "Respect the Stick." A few, however, were arrested after being seen carting out seats.
But a feeling of nostalgia permeated the night. Many lifelong fans with a trove of memories from the wind-swept, creaky stadium weren't sure they would be making the trek next season to Santa Clara. The new $1.2 billion Levi's Stadium will undoubtedly be swanky, but it won't be the same, they said.
'I feel lonely'
Plus, the increased ticket prices and, for some, a longer drive can be strong deterrents.
"Lonely. I feel lonely because what the hell am I going to do on a Sunday now?" said Kent White, 67, of Pacific Grove. "All my friends are here, and they're not going to be here anymore."
A fan since 1979, White said he'll probably catch a few games in Santa Clara, but he said, "It will take a long time to make new friends."
Larry Myers, 72, of Sacramento has bought 49ers season tickets for 35 years, but this will be the final season. Comparable tickets at the new stadium will cost him between $6,000 and $8,000, he said - a little too steep for games a little too far away.
"I'm already 72, and my brother is 70," he said as he grilled steak, lobster and oysters before the game. "We're not going to do that."
Myers said it felt a tad bittersweet to be at his final regular-season game at Candlestick.
"I'm a little bit sad, you know. ... This is it, the final game," he said. "On the other hand, all things progress."
Sacramento resident Jason Chappell, 31, a 49ers fan since birth, said he was going to miss the crusty concrete walls of Candlestick.
"I'm going to miss this place because of friends, family ... memories of the Giants games that were here," he said. "Dude, think about all the important things that happened here."
Those historic moments include the famed Catch by Dwight Clark in 1982, which propelled the 49ers to their first Super Bowl victory; the Beatles' last concert, in 1966; and the 1989 Bay Bridge World Series between the Giants and the Oakland A's, which was interrupted by the magnitude 6.9 Loma Prieta earthquake.
Shot at hosting playoff
But Candlestick could potentially host a few more important moments: The 49ers still have a shot to host a playoff game in January, if the football stars align.
The Valdivies family of San Francisco is among those who plan to follow the team south. But that doesn't mean family members weren't a little torn about leaving the Stick. They hoisted a sign that read, "Levi's may be our new stadium, but Candlestick will always be home."
Willie Valdivies, 16, attended his first game when he was 9 months old.
"I'm going to miss all the memories, the games, the time with my family," the teen said. "The memories from here, I don't know if it will be the same" in Santa Clara.
Willie's dad, Bill, said the family would make the journey next fall down Highway 101 into Santa Clara.
"At the end of the day, we're die-hard Niners fans," he said, "but this will always be our home."

All sorts of Holiday GoodiesPosted by bryanswan | December 20th, 2014
We haven't exactly been very vigilant about posting updates here over the last six months, but long time readers may have come to expect that sort of inconsistency. Usually that that means is we've been working tirelessly…well, maybe almost tirelessly… on getting more content prepared and rolling out new features for the website. So, in honor of the holiday season, here's our present to our readers:
Complete data for the following States has been posted:
Arkansas (454 waterfalls)
Kentucky (101 waterfalls)
Missouri (16 waterfalls)
North Carolina (651 waterfalls)
Oklahoma (36 waterfalls)
Texas (94 waterfalls)
With these updates we now have data for 36 out of 50 states, and brings our grand total of waterfalls in the United States (so far) up to a whopping 10,919, and when all is said and done we expect that number to climb closer to 14,000 (and of course, it will continue to grow as we find and inventory more and more waterfalls).
In addition to the United States coverage, we also added data for 492 waterfalls in Iceland, about eighty of which we had the opportunity to survey back in August. To date we've posted reports on about half of those, and the remaining reports (as well as pictures) will be posted when we can get around to them.
Lastly, in addition to continuously adding more data, we've been working on overhauling some of the systems that power the website. We've got some much needed changes in the pipeline that we hope to have launched by the end of the year. If you follow us on Facebook (which you should), you may have seen mention of a new mapping system coming down the line. Well it's getting close. I can't say exactly when it will be ready, because there are a couple other dependencies that have to be finished first. But it's coming. Soon. I'm not going to spoil the surprise, but I will say that it will make navigating and searching for waterfalls in the database infinitely easier right off the bat, and will allow us some much needed expansion capability in the future as well. Stay tuned.

United Airlines Pulls Boeing 787 Out of Service Until June 5Submitted by emalvini on Thu, 02/21/2013 - 21:18
United Airlines Pulls Boeing 787 Out of Service Until June 5
By W.J. Hennigan
February 21, 2013, 3:22 p.m.
With the Boeing 787 Dreamliner fleet grounded by the Federal Aviation Administration, United Airlines said it is keeping the beleaguered aircraft off its flight schedule through June 5.
"We are taking the 787 out of our schedule through June 5, except for Denver-Narita, which will tentatively launch on May 12," said Christen David, a spokeswoman for the airline.
United, the only U.S. carrier that has 787s in its fleet, has six of the planes. Boeing has delivered 50 787s to eight airlines worldwide.

The Complete Series
Firefly (Television program)
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
one of my favourite shows of all time. think mashing a western with sci-fi and throwing in dashes of humour, romance, and the usual marks of a great joss whedon classic. watch this entire series before watching the follow up movie, Serenity.
"Firefly" follows the adventures of the crew of Serenity, a somewhat run down space ship. The captain of the ship is Mal Reynolds, who, along with his First Mate Zoe Washburne, fought in a civil war on the side of the Independants (the opposing side was the Alliance). Other members of the crew include Kaylee Frye, the ship's engineer, Inara Serra, a companion, Derrial Brook, a pastor, Jayne Cobb, a mercenary, and Hoban 'Wash' Washburne, Zoe's husband and the ship's pilot. The crew of Serenity are smugglers, and while on a planet searching for jobs, they pick up a traveller named Doctor Simon Tam. It is later revealed that Simon has smuggled his younger sister River on board, and that they are both fugitives hiding from the forces of the Alliance.
"Firefly" is a sci-fi western television show that combines the best aspects of both genres. The show spans only one season, but is continued and ultimately finished in the 2005 film 'Serenity'. "Firefly" is a unique and entertaining show filled with humor and action but punctuated with dark undertones. The characters are all unique and different, and each have their own quirks, flaws, and attitudes. The setting is vast, as the show takes place on different planets and in space itself. The plot is very interesting and keeps viewers enthralled, as each episode is very different, yet each still maintains a certain charm.
Overall, the author of this review highly recommends "Firefly". It is a lovely show, and is suitable for ages thirteen and up due to some scary scenes and that one nude scene.
I enjoyed Firefly better than StarTrek, and I love StarTrek, Like StarTrek it is optimistic about the future of mankind. Great humor and each episode has a message. Wish this show had lasted more than one season.
The Firefly series is awesome. If you have ever wondered what it would be like to fly with smuggler Han Solo in the Millenium Falcon, just watch this series, this is as close of an answer as you will get.
Unfortunately this series was short lived due to several factors: Producers in FOX poor handling (poor promotion, aired out of order, etc.), it was a bit expensive to produce, and did not attract as many viewers as expected (at the time). It was a "late bloomer", a la Breaking Bad, Office Space...
If you are a true Sci Fi genre fanatic, you will love this series.
It is the second highest rated Sci-Fi Series with at least 1000 votes in IMDb: 9.2/10 (141,996 users); just behind an animated series.
Try it, it is a short Series, it was on the air only 1 season, and there is a sequel to the series, a film called Serenity.
I only watched a little bit. Didn't appeal to me. Nothing special. This is the series that precedes the movie, "Serenity", which was good, but definitely not great. I guess my standards are higher than other reviewers. Not worth raving over.
I was very impresses with the series when it was on, and again when I took out here. I wish they had of been able to continue the series as there was so much more they could have done with the story.
Here is hoping for movies to continue with it.
Fans for this show were behind it all the way.
Great fun !! And a reasonably developed sci-fi 'verse', based on the time-honored confict between empire and independence. So wierd that it wasn't picked up for another season !?! It is so much smarter and entertaining than many other series,.. maybe that's why (?). (It must have been badly scheduled and poorly promoted.) P.S. For an additional Firefly fix, be sure to catch the full length feature 'Serenity' ! (5-5-14: 1 ; 5-7: 7)
Joss Whedon an avowed atheist uses this failed series as all his productions to subliminanly project his totally disdain for God and religion. The pastor here is used as a constant foil of the captain, in one scence the captain refuses to let the pastor pray over an evening meal.
Mr. Whedon is also responsible for the Avengers movie, which was indeed entertaining over all but when it comes to the demi-god getting his 'come-uppance' he has the scientist turned Mr. Hyde really bash him good with a final parting shot of 'puny god'.
Discovered this 14-epide TV series late. But what a find! Love it.
Just like Deadwood shut down by HBO for being too smart/GREAT...This is another masterpiece of a tv show that was cancelled. This time by the geniuses at Fox. Firefly is in the top series ever. Even if only for 1 season. @Blue...It was cancelled because american audiences have become too dumb for many great things: Movies, books, films, tv shows. So Fox promoted it wrong to appeal to the dumb. It then showed it out of order thinking the first episode was too dramatic and smart for the dumb. This led to the show not being seen that much, and then Fox not wanting to invest in something smart knowing full well it would not be appreciated by the masses..which is mainly made up of dumb. GREAT show. Borrow it, Rent it, buy it, see it. Revel in a GREAT show.

After a day on the slopes, it's nice to slip into these warm fuzzy slippers. I like the rubber soles so that I can walk out a pick up the paper in them when it's a little wet out.

Everyday UX, the very first UX Mastery ebook, went on sale today.
It's a collection of inspiring interviews with 10 of the best UX designers in the world. We're quite proud of it, and hope you'll like it too.
Luke and I have been working very hard on creating the very first UX Mastery ebook.
Everyday UX will launch next week, and will come bundled with a bunch of extra goodies that we know you'll love.
UXmas is back for 2013 with a joyous new design and a stocking full of articles, illustrations, videos and special offers,
Visit uxmas.com each day throughout December to unwrap a new gift to the UX community from UX Mastery and our friends at Thirst Studios.
Matt reviews the recently released book "UI Is Communication" by Everett McKay, and discovers a remarkable collection of patterns, examples, and principles for crafting useful, usable, delightful user interfaces.
Were you unable to attend the Web Directions South 13 conference in Sydney last week?
Fear not! Matt's video of sketchnotes will allow you to catch up on everything you missed. The best part? It's only about 5 minutes!
A whiteboard animation can be an effective communication tool, but is often expensive to produce. It needn't be.
Matt details a process that you can use to create your own whiteboard animations, without breaking the budget.
Matt is running a full-day sketchnoting workshop later this month, in Sydney, Australia. If you're looking to take your visual thinking skills to the next level, this is the workshop for you! Use our exclusive discount code to get $100 off.
The UX Brothers presented their most recent case study at UX Australia by shunning the usual slide deck—it was an all-singing, all-dancing production, and even included a special guest appearance by Aretha Franklin.
If you weren't able to attend the conference, you're in luck! Here's a complete video of the presentation. Be entertained and be educated by the UX Brothers' unique approach to designing with soul.
In this episode, Matt talks to David Travis from User Focus about his popular online UX training course, why the field of user experience is in such demand, and the pros and cons of training that is delivered in an online format.
Matt and Luke are embarking on a long and difficult journey—no I'm not talking about the 200km bicycle ride through the countryside that they're tackling, although that will be hard. I'm talking about the $20,000 that their team hopes to raise … through making a whiteboard animation.

Syracuse, NY (Sports Network) - Wes Johnson hit the go-ahead free throws with 33.5 seconds left in regulation, as No. 2 Syracuse held off a late Connecticut rally to upend the Huskies, 72-67, in an exciting Big East tussle.
Johnson ended with 13 points and nine rebounds, while Rick Jackson and Kris Joseph chipped in 15 and 14 points, respectively, for the Orange (24-1, 11-1 Big East), who have rattled off 11 straight wins since their lone loss to Pittsburgh on January 2nd. Jerome Dyson scored a game-high 19 points and grabbed eight rebounds but missed a potential go-ahead three-pointer down the stretch to send the Huskies (14-10, 4-7) to their fourth loss in five games.
Stanley Robinson posted 16 points and seven boards, while Kemba Walker scored 14 points in the setback.
The last time these programs met was in the quarterfinals of the conference tournament last year, when Syracuse outlasted Connecticut in a memorable 127-117 victory after six thrilling overtime sessions.
Only 40 minutes were needed Wednesday, but the excitement in the Carrier Dome matched that of Madison Square Garden a year ago, as their beloved Orange opened up a 50-34 lead following a Jackson jumper with under 14 minutes remaining in regulation.
UConn fought back though, scoring 14 of the next 16 points to pull within 52-48 on Dyson's bucket off an offensive rebound with 8 1/2 minutes to play. It was nip-and-tuck from that point on.
Johnson's dunk from the baseline yielded a 65-62 Syracuse edge with 3 1/2 minutes showing, but the Huskies controlled a loose ball after a miss from Dyson, who got the ball back and canned a tying three-pointer from the left wing.
After a Johnson miss, UConn had several opportunities to take the lead but couldn't get the ball to go down. Following Dyson's out-of-control drive in the lane, Syracuse called timeout with 46 seconds left.
Immediately out of the break, Andy Rautins missed a quick three from the right corner, though Jackson corralled the rebound. Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim then called timeout before Scoop Jardine drove the lane and missed a layup in traffic, and Johnson was fouled on the ensuing inbounds pass, hitting both freebies with 33.5 seconds left.
"I saw Scoop with the ball [and] I wondered where he was going, but he didn't know where he was going. That's why I called timeout," Boeheim said.
At the other end, Dyson missed a deep three from roughly the same spot he hit from to tie it, and the Orange made enough free throws the rest of the way to seal another memorable win.
"We were very fortunate to win because they made a great comeback," Boeheim added.
Arinze Onuaku broke a 13-all tie for Syracuse at the 11:20 mark of the first half with a three-point play, which ignited a 15-6 run over the next 4 1/2 minutes, as Brandon Triche's three-ball resulted in a 28-19 lead for the hosts.
Syracuse continued to play front-runner and led 37-30 at the break. The Orange appeared to take full control when they scored 13 of the first 17 points of the second half, but the Huskies did not go that easily.

More reviews by hakunamatata13
The color didn't do anything for me. I'm naturally really pale and bought this on a whim at my mac store. The color looked so bad on me and really washed me out.
More reviews by deadiswhatweaimfor
First off, I don't even own this anymore. Gave it to my sister to see if she could work with it. This is the most drying lipstick I have ever tried. It is soo cakey and nasty. I thought it would be a light pink/nude but no. This is.. skin colored. It literally washes away your lips so you look lipless!!! If I wore this in public id probably be laughed at. I brought this back into mac to see if they could give me tips and the lady didn't even know what to do!!! I now stay away from this type of mac lipstick. I believe it was a satin? I won't even try another color from this type.
Fail, mac, fail.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This lipstick is ok, nothing special. I have the creme d'nude as well, and feel much about the same about them both, although the creme d 'nude is not as drying. They fade quickly, look patchy quickly and if you're looking for a moisturising lipstick,these are not it.Also I don't understand where the "satin" comes into it , it's drying , name is misleading.I'm nw15 -20 and myth just makes me look washed out. It is a nice colour it just dosen't suit me.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This color is one of MAC best-selling colors
i do like the color but i usually don't wear it alone, it's useful for cutting down brighter colors or creating a base to put brighter colors over. texture is quite dry and not very buildable.
I love this lipstick.. Just because most people say this makes you look washed out, lipless, dead, etc. it depends how you're applying it. So if anyone were to use it you don't sweep it across your lips from side to side unless you want it to look like you have no lips lol, DAB IT! also, i apply a lipgloss over it & wala!
3 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
When I bought this lipstick, I had no real concept of what a nude lipstick was and what it was supposed to do. I had only been drawn to brights. My understanding was that a nude lipstick was supposed to make your lips the same colour as your face (I know!!) and that's what this did, so I purchased it. Didn't know if I liked it, but I'd heard nude lips were on trend, so I got it.
When I saw it in natural light I hated it. I tried a light hand, a full sheath of colour, overlining with it.. I hated them all. Honestly, it made me look like I had a skin disease.
But I'm giving this a 4 because eventually I got the hang. It won't come as any surprise - the key to making this work is lipliner. The one I use religiously with this lippie is Rimmel 1000 Kisses liner in Tiramisu (an orangey neutral - very similar to the colour of Estee Lauder's Crystal Baby.) And once I worked that out I've worn it on a few nights out and got compliments for it. Definitely not an everyday lipstick for me and would never wear it in the daytime.
Am quite excited by other people's suggestions. Will definitely try mixing it with some other lipsticks and seeing what I can come up with.
One for those who like to experiment - and a challenge.
I'm quite new to the world of lipsticks among make up issues. I only used glosses before finding out about the many wonderful colours MAC has in its shops. So I walked in and I had no clue about which one to buy. I tried on loads of colours, then I got myself into MYTH.. and it's been love at first sight, I've been looking for this nude shade FOR AGES! I'm going to buy again when this one is finished. I think this colour suits brunettes better than blondes, but who cares.. if you like it, get it!
Warm medium light skin tone. Makes me look dead. Dark hair. Light eyes.
I was SO skeptical about this color at first. I got in a back to Mac swap so it was free but the MA had to convince me to walk away with it. The key to this lipstick is manipulation! I adore how many custom colors you can make with this...my favorites being the mixtures with Costa Chic, Impassioned and the recently purchased Viva Glam V! Now that I know it's capabilities I will never be without one in my extensive lip collection!
I have bought this product twice. It looks nice with a tan or when I'm pale. It does have a "chalky" feel and look. At times, it highlights (or produces?) flakiness on my lips. If you use too much, it washes you out. However, I like it b/c I can combine it with lip liner, a dot of lip gloss at the center of my bottom lip, or wear it alone and it all looks good!

hey guys any of you have experience with inter ordanance AK-47's? I want to get a rifle for home defense but want to save money.
From what I've read there are good AK's and bad AK's lol. I don't want to get a cheap one, but if I have to spend 1000 dollars I might as well get an AR-15. These are about half that price.

Report: 90 Percent of Condo Buyers Are Foreigners
By Kyle Munzenrieder
This past March, Gabriel Perez was sitting in his Cape Coral home watching the NCAA basketball tournament when the game cut to a commercial. He sat chuckling at a Buffalo Wild Wings ad.
You remember the one: A birthday telegram goes horribly wrong when a dweeby guy with the unfortunately unisex name of Tracy is sent the wrong dancer. Co-workers open the office door to find a male stripper shaking his sailor-uniformed-crotch in Tracy's stunned face. A boombox in the background blasts an appropriately raunchy song called "Swing That Thang."
That's when Perez nearly choked on his chips. Fifteen years earlier, Perez had written "Swing That Thang" as one of the founding members of Hialeah booty bass rap group Mentally Disturbed. And he hadn't given anyone permission to use the song.
"Nearly every cable TV station in the country ran that commercial," Perez says. "It was on heavy rotation in 800 cities for a month, but I didn't get a dime. That's not right."
Perez is now fighting to get paid. In the early '90s, Gabriel — then known as Gigolo — started Mentally Disturbed with his brother Edward. When Edward was killed in a shooting on Christmas Eve 1993, Gabriel and friends finished the record. They later found modest success on MTV and performing live with fellow booty bass groups such as 2 Live Crew.
Perez wrote "Swing That Thang" in 1996. "Let me tell you how it goes/Gigolo is known for pimpin' hos," Perez crooned.
"It's pretty much about girls doing the nasty dance," he says.
Perez is now being forced to prove his copyrights in court. DM Records, a company based out of North Miami Beach, insists it has owned "Swing That Thang" and other Mentally Disturbed songs since buying them from another label in a bankruptcy sale in 1999.
"Mr. Perez has his facts wrong," DM Records cofounder Mark Watson says. He has filed a complaint for declaratory relief against Perez.
True to his name, however, Gigolo still expects to get his money. "DM didn't even check if they owned the song before selling it to Buffalo Wild Wings," Perez alleges. "It's a real funny commercial. I just wish they got my permission and paid me for it."

7 million iPhone and iPod touch users tried to download Flash, and left sad
Despite the widespread disdain for Adobe Flash, it remains a ubiquitous platform delivering streaming media to millions of browser windows -- except for mobile Safari. Adobe claims that its site received more than 7 million download requests for Flash in the month of December, originating from iPhone and iPod touch users, which the company is using as evidence that users of those products want Flash on their devices. A shocking figure, if true. And if traffic from these devices is so high now, demand will only be exacerbated by the arrival of the iPad, once thousands of angry users discover they can't watch funny cat videos anywhere but YouTube.
It's important to note, however, this traffic is originating from Adobe's Flash download page, where visitors are likely arriving after having clicked on a link which told them that their browser did not have Flash installed and where to download the plugin. So the question remains as to whether demand lured them to the page, or a simple call-to-action link. You decide.
I'm impressed that Adobe went to the effort of logging download requests, given their supposed "laziness."

VCU and MSA 2013 - page 4
Hi everyone! I am finally officially applying to VCU and MSA for 2013. Was also going to apply to UT chat and SEHC but decided 2 was all I could reasonably afford to fly out to interview at. This has been such a LONG road... Read More
- 0Oct 14, '12 by missnurse01Yeah my stomach is in full butterfly mode all the time ! We thought of living with my mother in law and commuting to the northern campus but I wanted the benefit of the full campus experience w the sim lab and established clinical sites and instructors. Don't know too much about the northern campus to compare. Spent 3 days shopping for interview clothes ! I hate shopping ! I want to be the real me in jeans . Lol
- 0Oct 14, '12 by missnurse01Kellly I thought you went last week. Guess I am confused. My previous coworker is attending there now and will ferry me back and forth from the airport. We are having dinner the night before so hopefully he can calm my nerves! Studying ccrn stuff, interview questions/topics, all kinds of data. I hear they aren't grueling but I can't help worry they would suddenly decide to be with me!
Kellly I am so jealous you got a date so far out! They would only schedule me for the day I have, which left me 2 weeks to prepare, rather short for changing schedules and all the plans and shopping. I think that's why I am more nervous, I thought I would have more prep time!!
- 0Oct 18, '12 by missnurse01Hi guys ! I interviewed today , so happy it is all over with. I like that they are talking students final decisions a month earlier than previous years. So we have about 4 weeks of torture instead of 8, lol.
I don't really know how I did...esp the adcom chair...very tight lipped. I felt the interviews were too short ! There was so Much I wanted to say but didn't get a chance to. I just put my best foot forward and flat out said I was the best candidate for next years class ! Lol
Good luck guys
- 0Oct 19, '12 by lcsrnHi missnurse
Glad your interview went well. Thats great I don't think I could stand an 8 week wait period. Did you like the campus and sim lab ? How was the test ? and in the interview did they ask any clinical questions or was it basic why do you want to be a CRNA type questions?

Campus is completely removed from vcu. It is basically a wing at the old hospital there , right next to vcu med center. The allied health division is there. But it's nice. A few lecture rooms , two sim lab rooms , a breakroom. Test was basic icu knowledge , nothing quite difficult. The interviews were mostly get to know u questions with some behavioral ones thrown in. No clinical grueling.
They also had a senior student who was about to graduate in December come talk to us. We were able to be alone w her and ask any question we wanted.
It all just solidified why vcu is my number one school choice.
Good luck and let us know how it went !!!
- 0Oct 19, '12 by missnurse01Quote from kellly242U will do great kellly! It is relaxed. They really want u to succeed. Let us know-how it goes!Glad to hear your interview is over with! I know it is a relief. I can't wait to have mine over with.
- 0Oct 25, '12 by missnurse01Quote from KaralinaHi Karalina!Has anyone heard back from VCU yet? I'm sure that they are still conducting interviews and I know they said the end of November, but this wait is brutal! I was just wondering if people got offered the "you are so awesome, we called you the next day" spots.
Welcome to the vcu anxiously waiting group ! When did you interview? I know my application folder was set aside bc I was called to ask to send my personal statement again. I asked if it was a good thing that my folder was given to mtg and she said yes !
The night after my interview I dreamed she called me to offer me a spot! I had to call her and have a laugh at the applicant craziness she is probably used to.
Good luck and keep in touch. I assume u interviewed a while ago as you are feeling the wait harder than I am ! I try really hard not to dwell on it and instead I am freaking out about how I am going to live without working for 2+ years!!!!

I lowered the default to 60 by adjusting hte POSTGREY_OPTS for debugging purposes.
Oh and the missing /etc/var/mail.log was an error on my part. I recreated it with the appropriate chmod switch and postfix is now writing to the mail.log as it should.
I am actually able to send mail out now from the domain to other addresses, and I know mail is arriving as it's shown in the log but, of course, I'm just not quite sure where to look for it... presumably somewhere via mysql.
I thought the "mail" command would show it to me but no such luck.
There is some more progress on the project and I thank you again for your input.

Easily entertainedI read an article about politicians and humor once, I'll edit it in if I find it. But basically, it pointed out that powerful, successful politicians, when left to make jokes without the help of speech writers and coaches, tend towards self deprecation. Why? Because self deprecation is the humor of the mighty: many who mock themselves are really saying "I'm so powerful that I can freely insult myself and poke fun at my own weaknesses, because at the end of the day, I still know I'm awesome." So: self-confidence, a knowledge of your strengths, and the ability to demonstrate them without ever speaking of them.

Investor sentiment is up, says JLL
…at least in the MENA region. In Dubai things "remain stable." Which means bad, we're guessing.
October 4, 2010 3:55 by Sam Potter
Jones Lang Lasalle is in the mood for issuing reports it seems. Just a day after its Dubai City Profile (mentioned in yesterday's Real Estate round up), the real estate advisory firm has published its 5th Real Estate Investor Sentiment Survey for the Middle East and North Africa. So what's the short summary? In a nutshell, sentiment is better everywhere, apart from the UAE. Though on the plus side, at least in the UAE it isn't getting any worse.
The majority of investors still expect capital values to increase in most MENA markets except the UAE over the next year, says the report, although the extent of these anticipated increases are now more modest. In other words, investors are hopeful but have their feet firmly on the ground.
The two hot spots in the region are Saudi Arabia and Egypt, according to the report, which is probably thanks to their large populations and hence significant economies. And of course, a little oil wealth does no harm. So, in the next 12 months, expect these two countries to outperform markets such as the UAE.
"Sentiment is stabilising and marginally improving, as investor confidence returns on the back of the region's economic recovery," explains Andrew Charlesworth, Head of Capital Markets at Jones Lang LaSalle MENA. But he emphasizes that "market regulation and legislation remain the most important factors influencing investment decisions, particularly for organisations addressing a variety of risk management and corporate governance issues."
In other words, investor sentiment may be high for Saudi, but local transparency and finance issues make speculators wary. By contrast, Dubai has little short term appeal thanks to oversupply and the UAE's well published economic difficulties, but it is gradually undertaking market reforms and regulations and it remains the most transparent market in the region. JLL believe this will contribute to a gradual, but hopefully long term, recovery of confidence in the embattled Emirate.
But it will take time. As the report says, across the MENA region, negative changes in real estate values were the highest in Dubai (18 percent down). It was followed by Kuwait, the Levant, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi, Oman and Qatar. True, the government's generally successful debt restructure has helped sentiment improve by 70 percent since April 2009, but there is still a way to go. Right now JLL says there are as many sellers as there are buyers in the Emirate, while in the rest of the region the buyers outnumber the sellers, creating a healthy market. The fact is, right now Investors are looking for low risk and income generating assets, and at the moment Dubai does not fit the bill – particularly in terms of income generation.
It's not just Dubai that is falling out of grace with investors. While positive sentiment may not be abandoning the GCC, you can find much more of it directed towards the North Africa region and the Asia Pacific region, says the report. JLL speculates that investors are looking to diversify their portfolios into these emerging markets. Though their interest is only half of the story – while the sentiment on these regions is strong, right now the actual cash is heading to Europe and in particular the UK.
This suggests that the wary investor is currently opting for safety, while keeping an eye on the next opportunity.

Sometimes we as enthusiasts lose sight of the fact that most users do not know how to build a PC and are not going to learn as they simply are not as into the hardware side as we are. This is not a bad thing they simply enjoy other hobbies and while the PC DIY market is strong there simply are a lot more users out there who do nto know how to build it and will pay to have a system built.

The Navaho missile, the supersonic drone, and its legacy
For an American aircraft to have an X-designation means it's an experimental aircraft. It's an aircraft specifically intended to answer questions about aerodynamics or design, not something that will ever be mass-produced. Some X-planes, like the X-1 and the X-15, are pretty well known. Others, like the X-10, aren't. This X-plane was a drone built with a missile in mind. It was the proof of concept aircraft built by North American Aviation in the 1950s to explore the in-flight intricacies of the company's SM-64 Navaho supersonic intercontinental cruise missile.
The North American X-15 rocket plane in flight.
The Advent of Guided Missiles
Guided missiles appeared as an offensive weapon during the Second World War in the hands of the Germans. The V-2 missile, which launched vertically like a rocket and flew faster than the speed of sound towards its target, used a simple autopilot system to keep it on course. Two gyroscopes each controlled a pair of fins near the rocket's base, canceling out oscillations and steering the rocket along a preset flight path.
The V-2 wasn't the game-changing weapon Hitler had hoped it would be. The missiles started flying too late in the war for Germany to recover lost ground. But it did anticipate a new kind of warfare where self-guided missiles were poised to take over from bombs dropped by piloted aircraft. It was much safer, and a big enough missile could carry more destructive firepower to its target than an airplane could handle.
One V-2 in the foreground with another just launched in the background.
Immediately after WWII, missile development became a major goal for the United States military. In October of 1945, the U.S. Army Technical Service Command asked aeronautic corporations across the country to submit proposals for guided missiles; the winning design would be funded through its development. Two replies to this initial call for missiles stand out in hindsight. One response came from Convair. The company's MX-774 missile developed over a number of years into the Atlas Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM). The other historically interesting reply came from North American Aviation. Best known as the manufacturer behind the X-15 rocket plane and the Apollo Command and Service Modules, NAA pitched the MX-770 missile that was eventually renamed Navaho.
The Navaho Program
The Navaho was designed as an interim strategic weapon, something the U.S. armed forces could have on hand while the first generation of long-range ICBMs came of age. In its final form, the Navaho would mimic the V-2's flight path, but surpass it in terms of power, range, and accuracy.
The Navaho missile would launch vertically from a launch pad, riding piggy-back on a booster rocket. Gaining speed and altitude, the Navaho's own engines would only kick in and take over once the missile had reached an altitude of 50,000 feet. Achieving this speed and altitude was necessary because the Navaho was designed to use ramjet engines, engines that compress incoming air without the help of a rotary compressor. They provide efficient thrust at supersonic speeds but can't get a vehicle moving from a standstill.
Getting the Navaho surpass its German predecessor meant North American would have to develop new booster rocket technology and the largest ramjet engines then in existence. It also demanded a substantial auxiliary power unit to power and the missile's electronics and hydraulics, and a state of the art navigation system, the N-6 or NAVAN (short for North American Vehicle Auto Navigation) built by North American's Autonetics Division.
It was, simply, a massive undertaking. By the early 1950s, the task had been broken into three stages, the first of which was to build and fly a proof of concept vehicle.
The G-26 two-thirds scale Navaho missile.
The X-10
The X-10 was this vehicle, a drone designed to test the airframe, general aerodynamics, guidance, and control systems that would go into the Navaho missile. The only things missing were the ramjet engines, which were still in development.
This unmanned high performance jet looked like a sleek airplane missing its cockpit. Where a bump in the fuselage would indicate the presence of a pilot, the X-10 was flat. 71 feet long with a wingspan of 28 feet and two inches, it was powered by two afterburning XJ-40 turbojet engines that delivered 10,000 pounds of thrust apiece. The combination of a triangular delta wing body with an all-moving frontward wing (called a canard) meant the X-10 was aerodynamically sound in the transsonic and supersonic environments (passing through and flying faster than sound) but unstable without active flight control. To keep it steady, the X-10 was radio controlled by a ground operator during take-off, landing, and other flight phases.
Preliminary design of the X-10 was finished in February 1951, and the first vehicle was delivered to Edwards Air Force Base just over two years later in May 1953. It made its maiden flight on October 14, 1953. It flew just 20 flights, all of which returned a wealth of information on how the Navaho would fly, and how all of its part worked.
The X-10.
The G-26
With the proof of concept flights complete, the second stage of the Navaho program saw development of the G-26. This was a two-thirds scale test version of the missile that brought all the pieces together.
Launched vertically by a twin-thrust-chamber liquid-fuel rocket booster just like the full-sized Navaho was designed to do, the G-26 would rocket upward, reaching Mach 3 and an altitude of 50,000 ft. At this point, the missile would be traveling at ramjet startup speed. The expended booster would fall away and the ramjets would ignite, powering the missile on its final path to its target. Between the booster and its own engines, the G-26 had a range of 2,500 miles and a top speed of Mach 2.75.
The first small-scale test missile launched on November 6, 1956. It failed. As did the second attempt. The third launch ended abruptly in a spectacular launchpad explosion. The fourth launch was a success, but the test failed when the missile's ramjet didn't ignite.
A Navaho demonstrator on the launch pad.
Navaho's Legacy
The final operational version of the Navaho was the G-38. It followed the model of the G-26 but was larger and incorporated a number of new technologies including titanium gimbaled rocket engines to provide pitch, yaw, and roll control in flight, and a kerosene/lox (liquid oxygen) fuel combination. But it never flew. When the third G-26 exploded on the launch pad the future was looking grim for Navaho. The program was canceled in 1957 before a full-scale version was built.
But the Navaho did leave a legacy. Its advanced rocket booster technology was applied to other missiles, including the Atlas, that would go on to launch the orbital Mercury missions in the early 1960s. Its inertial guidance system was later used as the guidance system on the first U.S. nuclear-powered submarines.
The X-10, meanwhile, was itself briefly optioned for a second life as a cruise missile. Able to take off and fly to a target under its own power, arming it with a nuclear warhead would turn it into a formidable weapon. But the success of the Atlas and Titan ICBMs eliminated the need for a weaponized X-10.
On July 13, 1998, exactly 41 years after the Navaho program was canceled, the Air Force Space and Missile Museum rolled out the only Navaho missile still in existence and put it out on display. The X-10 remains the only missile to be classified as an X-plane. The one remaining X-10 can be seen at the National Museum of the United States Air Force in Dayton, Ohio.

UCLA's June streak has come to an end. The Bruins had received a verbal commitment in each of the past three weeks this month, but did not land its fourth before July.
That doesn't mean players were not actively considering UCLA this week, and vice versa. In fact, we had to add a new category to our recruiting breakdown -- "Interested" -- for those players who have yet to list their leaders but say they like UCLA.
One look at where they come from and it's clear the Bruins are broadening their reach.
Here's the latest list of prospects on the UCLA radar:

Hi! I am a developer, than sometimes produce programs using the GPL license, sometimes using one BSD-like license. Reading the terms of "field of use" restrictions, and the positions of the Free Software Foundation [ http://www.fsf.org/philosophy/w3c-patent.html ], I believe than this restrictions are very dangerous, not only to GPL programs, but to the freedom of developing web solutions in other open-source licences too. Not freedom standards are very dangerous, because the access to implement solutions are closed, and this stop the progress of this same standards. So, please reconsider the "field of use" restrictions. Maybe to the people in the business side is a good thing, but to the freedom of the web standards this can be a very complicated limitation in the future.
