Director Suri, whose last film was the Puneeth Rajkumar-starrer Anna Bond, is back, and this time, with a film starring Shivarajkumar. Suri's film Kaddipudi, which also stars Radhika Pandit in the lead, is ready and slated for a May 24 release. The film, which has been ready for a while, and was even cleared by the Censor Board with a U/A certification, was to have released earlier this year, but had to make way for another Shivarajkumar film, Andar Bahar. Now that Andar Bahar has completed its run in movie halls, Suri is hoping to meet the May 24 deadline.
Kaddipudi, meanwhile, sees Shivanna play a rowdy, while Radhika is his wife. The actress has a deglam role in the film, which also has Aindrita Ray shimmying to a special number. The film, which has been in the news for Shivanna's turn as choreographer for one of the songs, apparently does not have the services of professional choreographers for any of its other numbers.
According to sources, Shivanna is also hoping for a change of image with this film. The actor has been quoted as saying that even though his character is that of a rowdy, the treatment of the story and the character is very different.

I can get the materials to do plaster repair work over wood lathe, but I can't figure out where to get the hair for the base coat (goat, horse or cow body hair).
Any leads on a source for clean/processed hair for plaster? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Why would you need that? The current technology in scratch coat material far exceeds the, "hair " technology of years ago. Try Structolite. I don't really want to see anymore bald animals. Ron |
US Gypsum told me they don't recommend any of their products for wood lathe...... So I'm looking at more traditional technology that has been proven to work for hundreds of years. |

ron6519 is correct. Horsehair plaster is an inferior technique that never worked well. Modern plaster techniques work much better. You can always apply galvanized lath directly to the wood lath to provide a stong base for the plaster. Or romve the wood lath and install lath rock as a base. Better still may be to cover the entire wall with 1/4" drywall then skim coat over that. But if you insist on using neandethal methods, try contacting a slaughterhouse or rendering firm in your area. |
Goodness, such antagonistic answers! I'm sorry I asked.... |

In the days before standardized, kiln-dried, planed and straightened framing lumber, plaster on lath was the most efficient way to turn very uneven framing into dead-flat walls with great insulating and acoustical properties. If our forefathers had sheetrock and rocklath it would not have done them much good, because the success of those materials is uttery dependent on the uniformity of the framing (to a lesser extent with rocklath, if used as the base of a three-coat job). The older portion of my house has clay/lime/hair basecoat plaster over riven lath nailed on with square nails. There is lime whitewash over it in places, and a soft whitecoat in others. After 150 years it's still serviceable. I don't regard that success as evidence of an inferior technique. The plasterer's technique shows great craftsmanship. Maybe their _technology_ was limited, but their technique was impressive. And technology is _always_ the limiting factor in any venture. Casey |

Here's a page with some plaster repair how-to. As a general rule, you don't need to use the "hair" in a repair. Using a traditional multi coat process will work well. Diane |
Here is a link that might be useful: Plaster repair tips
The only reason horse hair was added to plaster was to give it a bit more strength and to use as a filler |
- Posted by sombreuil_mongrel (My Page) on Sun, Mar 23, 08 at 9:52
Horsehair didn't give it strength, per se, but prevented the scratch coat from cracking as it dried. Any spiderweb cracks in the brown coat would translate into the brittle white coat. I recall seeing somewhere a fiber additive for structolite/gypsolite; when I tried looking for it again, I can't find it! Now, they add chopped fiberglass to concrete to minimize the cracked appearance that the surface can get from drying too fast. Casey |

A friend of mine who runs a plastering business recently married a friend of my wife, who owns and runs the horse-boarding facility where my wife keeps her horses. Hmmmm. Maybe he has an ulterior motive. :-) If Iceman starts inexplicably going bald, I'll know whats up. |
The stuff you're looking for is called "concrete fiber". You should be able to get it at any concrete yard - I doubt it's available at HDepot/Lowes. It's a fiberglass based product. If you really want to use natural hair, you'd need to screen and wash it yourself. Probably the best place to get hair in the proper, rather short lengths would be a dog groomer, though if you're in a rural area ANYONE with horses can give you all the horsehair you want. Just regular daily grooming makes PILES of the stuff.. |

I've had a few plaster contractors come out and give estimates on repairing our plaster, and one of them told me I have horse hair plaster. He also said that horse hair plaster contains,or can contain,"ASBESTOS". Is this true? I already started ripping one small wall down and now I'm a little terrified. |
Just a piece of drywall as the base filler strip. Scrw it to the lath. Use the blue stuff made for plastering over. |
- Posted by sombreuil_mongrel (My Page) on Wed, Dec 29, 10 at 19:05
For future reference, prepared bundles of horsehair (manes and tails) is available from Virginia Lime Works. Working it into a batch of lime/sand plaster takes a very long time, longer by far than mixing the mud; I think if it wasn't absolutely necessary to insure a good job, the old-timers would not have gone to the considerable trouble to add it. Casey |
Fiberglass works fine, you just need to be careful during mixing to not break it up to badly. The fiber helps to hold the keys formed by forcing the base coat through the gaps in the lath together. You should also use rough cut wood for lath, not planed. If you have old wood that is badly out of plane, instead of trying to shim sister pieces ox 2x to the sides of the old wood sitting just proud of the lowest spot in the surface. A laser protecting a vertical fan beam can be used to true up the new wood as it is screwed to the sides of the old studs. |

Our house's main section is from 1874..the plaster undernieth the white top coat..(base coat) has hair of some type in it and seems lime based...And it almost looks like dirt is mixed in with it.It really crumbles away...and with out that hairy stuff would have failed long ago...(which pretty much has actually). Really this plaster version sucks. The plaster used in our previous 1906 house was better..and the replacement plaster cieling in the kitchen which was done sometime in the 1950's-70 in that house was absolutely the BEST of the lot. In this house they used hair cause the material they used NEEDED it ,it seems. Using structolite...with a touch of cement...over wood lath that is vaccumed & dampened,( putting Plaster Weld a day before at exposed original plaster edges) has worked well for us. But..I usually pre drill & carefully renaill what I can, with very thin short Maze nails.. which is dangerous, as can shake things up. When you have a good dense consistancy of structolite and have applied it (working it upwards)..keying into spaces..After it sets a bit... gently go over it to compact it before scratching lines into it for second base coat. |
Use a finish nailer for re-attaching lathe. 1 inch long,#16, T-head nails works pretty well. The single quick impact to drive the nail has far less of a chance to disturb the remaining plaster. For small jobs I use a Paslode butane gun, for larger jobs I drag out the compressor. |
- Posted by sombreuil_mongrel (My Page) on Mon, Mar 28, 11 at 18:51
We have had great luck using a 1/4" crown (pneumatic) stapler for putting up wood lath. If the staples rusted out it would be bad, but they grip the thin wood really well if the staple's oriented across the grain. Before we discovered this we were hand nailing with #4 sinkers, which work, but still could split some lath, and hand nailing is of course vastly slower. We've re-attached two rooms worth of lath so far, and it's quite a grip. Casey |

Does anyone have any knowledge of whether or not horse-hair plaster does in fact contain asbestos? |
"Does anyone have any knowledge of whether or not horse-hair plaster does in fact contain asbestos?" Generally not. Horse hair was cheaper. |
We are considering buying a very old pre-1805 home in Virginia that (the realtor said) has horsehair plaster. I have done some old house repairs on a previous circa 1920 home, but never on anything this old or with horsehair plaster. Is this a job that my husband and I can do ourselves? I suspect that hiring would be very expensive and we already are looking at major and expensive repairs before we can close a deal -- new roof and electrical systems... Would love to do it ourselves if possible. Also, are there any books on the subject that I can consult? Thank you! |
Call local plasterers (if you can find more than one!) and find out how much it costs. Don't assume that it is out of sight until you inquire. |

So last night we were debugging some odd Apache behaviour when we discovered that RHEL6 has modified the default number of processes (which includes threads in linux, but I'll refer to it as procs for the purpose of this article). In RHEL5 (and prior), each user is given the default fork init number of threads (which we'll discuss shortly). It's a huge number usually, 106, 496 threads on my RHEL5 dev box here. RHEL6 on the other hand, drops a file into /etc/security/limits.d that limits all users to 1024 procs.
Now, /etc/security/limits.conf and /etc/security/limits.d are read by PAM's pam_limits.so, so only things that use PAM will ever touch these. Apache starting on a server reboot is not affected by these limits, so Apache will have access to its full 106,496 threads. But if root restarts apache from a shell (/etc/init.d/httpd restart or service httpd restart), Apache will inherit root's proc limit of 1024! This can be verified with a <?php passthru('ulimit -u'); ?> via mod_php.
1024 threads is totally not enough for reasonable operation in Apache. It will begin to kill children off as they seteid() to its designated user as the call fails with errno 11. (seteid() has not always performed an nproc check, this was added in some 2.6 kernel to prevent people from sneaking over the limit) You can work around this by dropping a ulimit -u <much higher number> into /etc/sysconfig/httpd, but my preferred solution is to remove (blank) RHEL6′s new /etc/security/limits.d/90-nproc.conf . (Or I guess you could just never restart your apache, best to reboot the system if theres a problem :P) Thanks Redhat.
Back to that large 106,496 number. Thats the maximum number of procs that nick as a user can spawn, even using ulimit -u he can't go higher than that. The system's maximum number of threads (visible in /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max) is 212992 (exactly double) is decided at boot time by the kernel. I decided to do some digging in the kernel source and the maximum number of threads is calculated thusly:
max_threads = totalram_pages / (8 * THREAD_SIZE / PAGE_SIZE);
(defined in kernel/fork.c, called by init/main.c)
PAGE_SIZE is architecture specific, for x86 it's 4kb (and 4MB but thats a discussion for another day), and is calculated via:
#define __AC(X,Y) (X##Y)
#define _AC(X,Y) __AC(X,Y)
#define PAGE_SHIFT 12
#define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT)
PAGE_SHIFT is a constant for x86, other architectures support alternate (larger) page sizes. THREAD_SIZE is also architecture specific:
#define THREAD_ORDER 1
#define THREAD_SIZE (PAGE_SIZE << THREAD_ORDER)
THREAD_ORDER is 1 in x86, but can vary depending on the arch. These result in a PAGE_SIZE of 4096 and a THREAD_SIZE of 8192 for x86. Back to the formula above, we can fill it in as:
max_threads = totalram_pages / (8 * 8192 / 4096);
max_threads = totalram_pages / 16 ;
Calculating totalram_pages is a bit tricky since its not just the full system ram allocated to pages. The easiest way to calculate it from /proc/zoneinfo, by summing the spanned pages:
cat /proc/zoneinfo | grep spanned | awk '{totalpages=totalpages+$2} END {print totalpages}'
So on my server with 12 gigabytes of memory we've got:
max_threads = 3407872 / 16;
max_threads = 212992;
Now the default maximum number of threads is designed to be able to only consume half the memory from threads alone. But one user should also not be able to consume all of the threads on the system. Back in kernel/fork.c we have:
init_task.signal->rlim[RLIMIT_NPROC].rlim_cur = max_threads/2;
init_task.signal->rlim[RLIMIT_NPROC].rlim_max = max_threads/2;
So there you have it, the ulimit -u for nick (or root) is now set to 106496 procs (threads). nick is unable to take up all of the processes on a box, even using ulimit, he cannot raise past max_threads/2 (106496, though root can). Unless modified via /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max, a maxed out system will not use more than 50% of the memory to store thread structures. Hopefully you too now know a little bit more about linux process limits! Big thanks to colleague and friend Jim Hull for his troubleshooting and major help last night.
The exact formulas may vary kernel to kernel, my findings were through the kernel 2.6.37 source and verified on RHEL5′s heavily modified 2.6.18-194 kernel

Dan GalbraithJohn Jefferson, right, Supervalu's newly-named vice president of produce merchandising, talks with Chris Lambert, a Fresh Express representative, about the company's salad mixes at the Supervalu Northern Division Sales for All Seasons Expo held in St. Paul Aug. 12-14. The Midwest retail scene is broadening its customer base, especially in the specialty segment, and traditional grocery has its sights on Wisconsin.
Austin, Texas-based Whole Foods Market Inc. has announced plans for at least seven new locations ranging from Little Rock to Lake Forest, Ill., and a fast-growing southeastern chain — The Fresh Market — has its eye on the Midwest's biggest cities including Chicago and Kansas City.
All this is happening thanks to some weakness in existing players, said Pewaukee, Wis.-based retail analyst David Livingston.
Both Eden Prairie, Minn.-based Supervalu Inc. and Milwaukee-based Roundy's Supermarkets Inc. have had some financial difficulties in core Wisconsin markets over the past few years, Livingston said. And that's opened up the market for expansion.
"Meijer is the next big thing coming in Wisconsin," he said. "It's been a real hotbed of new store development over the past five years. Roundy's hasn't been able to compete as well."
Grand Rapids, Mich.-based Meijer Inc. also is growing at home, opening its first-ever Detroit store in July.
West Des Moines, Iowa-based Hy-Vee Inc. also has its sights set on Wisconsin. The company opened its second Madison store in May. Wisconsin is doing well for the company, said chief executive officer Randy Edeker, at the opening ceremony.
"Everyone asked me today, 'Why Wisconsin? Why Madison?'" Edeker said, in a news release. "It's because we do phenomenal here."
Greensboro, N.C.-based specialty grocer The Fresh Market chose Chicago suburb Lincolnshire, Ill., as its first expansion into the Midwest, opening a store in June. The company also plans to open another store in the Kansas City suburb Overland Park on Sept. 4.
This follows the trend of national retailers looking for profitable locations, and finding many untapped markets in the Midwest, Livingston said.
"You're seeing Whole Foods and Trader Joe's come into smaller markets with higher incomes, well-educated with college campuses," he said. "It's the same story with The Fresh Market."
Livingston said he sees this one- and two-off store expansion continuing to be popular as retailers expand their presence in the region.
Chicago's premium scene
Chicago also is seeing a surge in high-end and specialty retail, like The Fresh Market, Roundy's Mariano's banner and a higher-end suburban expansion of Pete's Fresh Market.

Consumer News Release
For immediate release -- Friday, December 29, 2000. Contact Bob Brammer - 515-281-6699
Attorney General Tom Miller said the tobacco industry is wiring $19,035,264.84 million to the State of Iowa today - the latest installment of payments to Iowa that are scheduled to total about $2 billion by the year 2025. The industry will make another, larger payment by April 15. The tobacco companies must make payments by January 10 and April 15 each year, but the January payment is arriving today.
Miller said Iowa now has received $90 million from the tobacco industry since late last year. A total of over $71 million was received in December 1999 and April 2000.
The payments are scheduled under terms of the Master Settlement Agreement that resolved lawsuits filed against the tobacco companies by Miller and other state attorneys general. The companies also agreed to drastically change their marketing practices under terms of the Agreement, which was reached November 23, 1998. The companies no longer may market to children, must not use billboards or most other outdoor advertising, must not use "Joe Camel" or any other cartoons in tobacco advertising, and so on. The companies also agreed to pay the states over $200 billion through the year 2025, and to continue making payments in perpetuity after that.
"I strongly support continuing to spend a significant part of our tobacco money to solve our tobacco problems," Miller said. "We need to do everything we can to keep kids from becoming addicted to cigarettes and then suffering premature disease and death. About a thousand Iowa kids take up smoking each month, and five thousand Iowans die each year as a result of tobacco-related disease," he said. "That's completely unacceptable, but it's something we can change if we really go to work to solve the problem."
- 30 -
[Editor's note from Bob Brammer:]
This news release originally had a headline of "Iowa Receives $18 million from tobacco industry" because we anticipated a wire transfer of a little less than $19 million on 12/29/00. The actual amount wired was slightly higher, $19,035,264.84, and the news release was amended accordingly.

New Men's Basketball Coach Announced
May 27, 2010
Matt Parke was introduced as Averett University's new men's basketball coach Thursday during a press conference at Averett's Grant Center. Parke becomes the Averett men's basketball program's eighth head coach after serving as the associate head coach at Division III Guilford College for the past four seasons. During that span, Guilford had a 104-19 record and made NCAA Tournament appearances all for years, including back-to-back Final Four appearances the past two seasons. Guilford compiled the most wins by any Division III school during that stretch and was nationally ranked in the top 25 polls in each of the last four seasons. "It's really an honor and I'm excited for the season to start," Parke said. Prior to his most recent stint at Guilford, Parke was the Director of Basketball Operations at the University of Alabama from 2005-2006. He served as a graduate-assistant at the University of South Carolina from 2003-2005 and was on the coaching staff that helped guide the Gamecocks to the 2005 NIT championship. Parke began his college coaching career as an assistant coach at Guilford from 2001-2003. In addition, Parke has head coaching experience at Oak Ridge Military Academy (1999-2001) and Derby Academy (1997-1999). Parke takes over an Averett program that won three USA South Conference championships and made three NCAA Tournament appearances from 2007-09. Last year, the Cougars finished 10-16 before falling in the USA South semifinals. "We want to get back to going to NCAA Tournaments and back to winning conference championships" Parke said. Parke also has high expectations for his team off the court. "Our teams are always going to be working hard and always a team that Averett is going to be proud of," he said. "We're going to graduate players and have guys that are going to be productive members in society. ... We want to be more than just a basketball team." A native of Bangor, Maine, Parke earned his bachelor's degree in economics from Colby College in 1997. He also received his master's in business administration from South Carolina in 2005. He is engaged to Guilford athletic trainer Elizabeth Dornbos, and the two are getting married later this summer.

Rumors of planet Earth's destruction in 2012 may have proved greatly exaggerated, but the end of the world still looms large in three comedies out this year. In It's a Disaster, David Cross and Julia Stiles star as a couple whose brunch is interrupted by news that bombs have devastated several U.S. cities. (The indie will be available on VOD March 5 before beginning a limited theatrical release April 12, but you can already watch parts of it in six-second segments via Twitter's new subsidiary Vine.) There's also May 10's Rapturepalooza with Anna Kendrick and Craig Robinson and June 14's This Is the End, in which a cast of actors playing versions of themselves including Robinson, Seth Rogen, and Jonah Hill attempt to survive an apocalyptic event by holing up at James Franco's swanky home. And finally, in the fall British director Edgar Wright will put the future of humankind in doubt with his pub crawl of a doomsday flick, The World's End. Poster tagline: ''Good food. Fine ales. Total annihilation.''
Why are so many end-of-times comedies coming out now? ''It's because the f---ing world's ending!'' laughs Rogen, who wrote and directed This Is the End with Evan Goldberg. ''There's global warming, the Pope quit. There are cartoonishly apocalyptic things happening, and it's on people's minds.'' Meanwhile, It's a Disaster writer-director Todd Berger suggests that the recent rash of dystopian dramas, such as The Hunger Games and The Road, make the genre ripe for lampooning. ''Eventually the public is so used to all these tropes that it's time for people to make fun of them,'' he says. And how would these funny filmmakers fare in real-life Armageddon? Not well, according to Rogen: ''I assume there would be a lot of manual labor. We'd be screwed.''

I am sorry, I did not understand this part. Did you want to compare it or was that a request for me, that I shall compare it?
This is not a problem at all, let alone the "main" problem. If it was I had included it in my problem list.
Look at the version number, it is 0.1. Giving the process of single-dev open source audio software, when do you think it will reach 1.0?
Maybe by a time where Python3 and the other dependencies are common. Notice you also need Lilypond 2.15, which is a git version.
I plan to use Laborejo for decades in my professional career, thats why I even started it. I want it to be the top program not now but in years. Suddenly Python3 looks like good timing.

Did this acoustic version of Just Go for Skandinavian Krush!
Almost there now, be sure to come see us on our release partys. We'll be playing Pet Sounds Bar in Stockholm next wednesday, as well as Pipeline(The place we played our first show) in Sundsvall on saturday.
Oh, and here's the track list:
1. Just Go
2. Go With You
3. Scary Conversation
4. Slow Moves
5. Long Time Ago
6. Oh Why
7. People
8 I, I did
9. Listen
10. Far Too Kind
11. Out Of Luck
The video premiered yesterday obviously, but today's actually the official release day for People. So from now on you can purchase it through all your regular channels, such as iTunes and Spotify.
And for those of you who read japanese – here´s an interview by the music magazine Skream <3
Today Sweden's largest music blog PSL (a part of Swedish national televison, SVT) is breaking the video for our new single People.
Have a look here!
People is one of our oldest songs. It was written and recorded for the first time in 2008, and it's been a key part of our live set ever since! When we selected which songs to record for our debut album, it was obvious that People should be one of them. By now, it's even become the second single from there.
People was originally about embracing diversity, but after performing it so many times we've realized it's about embracing You. You that keep on listening to us, keep on following us, etc. And that's why we wanted to engage you in the making of the video! By letting anyone submitting short movie clips of themselves, we've got all kinds of People represented in the video (as well as one of the largest pigs in Canada). Can´t thank you enough for that!
The video is directed and produced by Henric Wallmark, Johan Åkerström, Katarina Sundman and Patrik Forsberg. Filmed by Patrik Forsberg. Edited by Henric Wallmark.
Hope you enjoy it,
That's right, we've been working hard on this album for a long time and now we can proudly say that we have a release date for our wildly anticipated debut. Actually, it will be released in Japan first, by Rimeout Recordings on the 18th of December. The rest of the world will have to wait until February 5th, 2014.
The name of the record, "Slow Moves" is in some way a suiting metaphor considering how much time has passed since we started working on it. We wanted our debut album to be brilliant and we wouldn't want to release anything short of that. Now we feel like our record is there, and we can't wait to share it with you.
As you might remember, the title track and the first single off of the record was released earlier this year. Next week the second single will be released. It's called People and will be released digitally on December 3rd worldwide. Some of you have contributed with material to the accompanying music video, and we're very thankful for your help. You will be able to see the final result of that VERY soon.

Post-Operative Hypertension | ||
CLINICAL VIGNETTEPost-Operative HypertensionSondra Vazirani, M.D., M.P.H.Introduction Postoperative hypertension is a common entity encountered by internists and other consultants. The cause of the hypertensive episode must be determined in order to adequately treat the patient. Acute urinary retention is one of several causes of postoperative hypertension that can easily be found during the physical exam. Case Report A 67-year-old Caucasian man with a history of hypertension and benign prostatic hyperplasia had a recurrence of head and neck cancer. He had postoperative hypertension two hours after undergoing a modified radical neck dissection and tracheostomy. Despite receiving eleven 20mg doses of IV labetalol, he continued to be hypertensive with blood pressures of 190's systolic over 100's diastolic. He was awake and alert, complaining of postoperative pain. He did not have blurry vision or chest pain. He claimed to have had good preoperative blood pressure control and to have taken all his blood pressure medications in the morning with a sip of water. The patient had post-surgical changes on neck exam, a systolic ejection murmur, and a full, palpable bladder. A foley catheter was inserted and over 600cc of urine collected. The patient's blood pressure came down rapidly to 156/89. Discussion Postoperative hypertension is a well-described complication resulting from surgical intervention. The frequency of postoperative hypertension ranges from 3% in all comers to 34% of those undergoing coronary revascularization.1 Other authors have reported incidences as high as 75%, depending on the procedure performed. Post-operative hypertension occurs not only in those with pre-existing uncontrolled hypertension, but also in those who were normotensive or well controlled with medication.2 However, pre-existing hypertension may increase the likelihood of difficulty in hemodynamic control both intra- and postoperatively.3 Postoperative hypertension is an issue that requires attention. Hypertensive patients, as we know, can develop end organ damage with sequelae ranging from stroke to myocardial infarction to renal failure. From a surgical standpoint, hypertension can lead to wound edema and increased bleeding. Intraoperatively, blood pressure can fluctuate from a variety of manipulations. Laryngoscopy and intubation lead to sympathetic stimulation. Upon awakening and extubation, there can be another rise in blood pressure. Hypertension can also occur from other immediate postoperative conditions such as pain and hypothermia.2 The acute increases in blood pressure in postoperative patients are largely thought to be a result of a hyper-adrenergic state caused by the multiple stressors of surgery. The sympathetic stimulation lead to elevated levels of norepinephrine.1 This results in increased systemic vascular resistance. There are many reversible factors that contribute to postoperative hypertension. Uncontrolled pain is a common cause.3 Secondly, volume overload during surgery can lead to elevated blood pressures. It is not uncommon for patients to receive liters of fluid in the operating suite. Even later in the postoperative course, patients can once again have increased intravascular volume from mobilization of fluids from the "third space." Hypercarbia and hypoxia can also contribute to postoperative hypertension. Another issue to consider is the patient's preoperative blood pressure status. Often, I see patients with postoperative hypertension who likely had poor blood pressure control preoperatively. The EKG may have signs of left ventricular hypertrophy and the patient may have sequelae of untreated hypertension such as renal insufficiency or history of strokes. Withdrawl from antihypertensive medications is another concern on the differential diagnosis. Patients should be asked what medications they were taking prior to the OR, to see if they happened to stop ingestion close to the perioperative period. Other rare causes of hypertension must be considered when combined with unusual clinical responses. For example, wide swings in blood pressure may make one consider an undiagnosed pheochromocytoma. These patients have long-term catecholamine stimulation that results in intravascular hypovolemia.3 These patients require volume repletion and adrenergic blockade immediately. History and physical exam are important in patients with postoperative hypertension. Aside from inquiring about the patient's hypertensive history and regimen, it must be determined whether the patient has a hypertensive urgency or emergency. Patients should be asked about blurry vision or chest pain. A fundoscopic exam should be performed, as well as looking for signs of end organ damage, such as congestive heart failure or evidence of stroke. The history and physical can determine whether the patient warrants oral versus intravenous medication and whether postoperative care should be given in an intensive setting. A reversible cause of postoperative hypertension that is not as medication sensitive and can be easily diagnosed on physical exam is bladder distension. Urinary retention is thought to cause hypertension, not only through pain mechanisms, but also via elevated renin levels excreted from the kidney.4 In the clinical example above, the patient received large doses of intravenous labetalol without significant blood pressure effect. This patient was at high risk for urinary retention given his history of benign prostatic hyperplasia and the lack of an intraoperative foley catheter. In this case, a distended bladder was easily noted on exam and the intervention of foley catheter placement resulted in speedy resolution of his hypertensive urgency. REFERENCES

About Chuck Lura: Chuck has a broad knowledge of "Natural North Dakota" and loves sharing that knowledge with others. Since 2005 he has written a weekly column, "Naturalist at Large," for North Dakota's newest newspaper, the Lake Metigoshe Mirror. His columns also appear under "The Naturalist" in several other weekly newspapers across North Dakota. A native of northern Iowa, Lura received an associate degree from Waldorf College in Forest City, Iowa. He then went on to receive his bachelor's degree in biology from South Dakota State University in Brookings, South Dakota. After teaching high school biology in South Dakota and Iowa, he returned to SDSU to obtain his master's degree and then on for his doctorate in botany from North Dakota State University in Fargo. Lura has been a biology professor at MSU-Bottineau since 1984. His teaching responsibilities have been principally biology, botany, and range management. He has also conducted and published research on ecological aspects of grasslands in the northern Great Plains. Chuck lives at Lake Metigoshe with his wife Mary (LD teacher at Bottineau High School), an Old English sheepdog, two cats, and lots of houseplants. They have three grown children: Erik, John, and Anna Sill. Since childhood Chuck has spent much of his spare time enjoying nature. In his spare time he can often be found exploring North Dakota's prairies, forest, and waters. He is an avid cross country skier (perhaps compulsive) and cyclist. His other outdoor activities include "botanizing," as well as canoeing, hunting, and fishing. Natural North Dakota is supported by NDSU Central Grasslands Research Extension Center and Minot State University-Bottineau, and by the members of Prairie Public. Thanks to Sunny 101.9 in Bottineau for their recording services.

Title: Aca is back and ready to make another bad ass baller his cum-slurpin' bitch! Enter the stocky Goran - who looks beefy and butch but has a soft-spot for ROCK HARD DICK! He smokes Aca's bone eagerly while Aca moans for more. After working up a nice flow of salty pre-cum,Goran makes sure Aca's fuck-knob is nice and slick before bending over and squeezing it between his juicy ass cheeks. The expression on his face looks like Aca's packing a little more meat than Goran bargained for,but it's hot in a "hurt-so-good" kinda-way. This is one tight hole and it shows! Aca takes charge,props Goran's arse up in the air and plows the fuck out of him anyway. When Aca is ready to squirt,he jerks into Goran's mouth,and Goran laps up the splooge,getting every drop and then let's it dribble out again,giving Aca one HOT fuckin' facial.
Title: Two young studs,one athletic brunette dude and a cute redhead twink,enjoy stroking each other off in this fun gay handjob video. The brown haired dude lies back and relaxes while the young redhead takes his dribbling cock in his mouth and starts to suck. Despite his youth,this young guy has a great pair of cocksucking lips and it's not long before his man is about to blow in his mouth. The other guy pushes the carrot top away,taking the redhead's dick in his own mouth and starting to fellate him. He really shows how it is done,enveloping the redhead's whole shaft in his slick throat and sucking it right down to the base.
Title: Aca is hot for the bleach blond and very fuckable Dado. And Dado is carrying a hefty chunk of cock between his legs and a set of balls that is ready to blow. Soon Aca has Dado's dick in his mouth and he's giving him a lip-smacking-good hummer of a lifetime. The devilish green on Dado's face tells you Aca knows a thing or two about working a cock over with his throat. He gives him the jerk and suck combo,stroking Dado's pole with his own slick spit while Dado grins ear-to-ear,relishing the attention his thick rod is getting. Aca then proves he can take a dick as good as any of the many bottom bitches he's fucked as Dado plunges his smoldering hot pecker straight up Aca's eager man-pussy. Aca's rides Dado's dick like a pogo stick and Dado slaps his ass in appreciation. The two fuck into a frenzy until Dado unloads in Aca's mouth and the two share one of the hottest snowball scenes EVER.

I feel the same. The teaser looked interesting enough, but I definitely need to see more.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this season. I'm loving the broken SHIELD storyline, and how they're going about trying to still fight HYDRA. I even like Talbot, though he had to grow on me. I'm loving...
Bluray/DVD for me too. I am learning to prefer bluray, but either is fine.
I watched the pilot last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. I can't wait to see next week's episode. So far, Bulloch's my favorite character.
What He-Dad said. I think some of my first posts here were on one of RockinHard's pictorial sites. Had a blast voting for various action figures.
Okay, so I took one look at Rio today while watching Pixel Dan's review vid and instantly thought of Wyatt Earp. That got me to thinking: What would MOTU be like if it were adapted to the movie...
Great review, Dan. I can't believe we have Space Kurt Russell/Wyatt Earp (that's the first thing that came to mind when I saw that face sculpt *L*).

I recently watched Burton's Batman with Michael Keaton. I have always loved that movie.
The designer very well could have been. That would make a lot of sense. I love the all-seeing eye idea!
And you're quite welcome. Thanks for joining in the discussion.
Morning Coffee,
Oh, man I love your thoughts on Skeletor and his cronies, and on Hordak. Speaking of the latter, your thoughts on the "large grouping" and "mob rule" kind of reminds of the stories...
Cool stuff, Romer. Thanks for sharin'!
Thanks for expanding on that, Mosquitor. That's a lot of really good information; I'd considered the cross pattee and the skull and bones in my original...
I've heard about the Illuminati references, but I'm not too well-versed in all of that. Do you have any examples?
Now that you mention it, it is a little bit disconcerting isn't it?
Watched Fast & Furious 6 last night. Those movies aren't deep and will never garner an Emmy. But, I love anything with a fast car in it.
If Skeletor's not sitting on Panthor, than he takes a nose dive every single time turn to look at him. Or breathe.
Okay, let me preface this by saying that I quite often think way too much about things like the topic I'm bringing up today. So, if you feel like rolling your eyes and groaning go right ahead. I feel...
It's an excellent film. Wyatt walkin' on water, the Latin scene, the last scene with Doc and Wyatt. Man, I love it.
Tombstone. When that movie comes on, the world stops. Honorable mention goes to Forrest Gump, which has the same effect on me.
I've always loved Sky Tree and think he'd make an excellent adviser to the Council, and an interesting staction figure.. I especially like Alexxander's idea that he "sees" through his guardians. If...
Makes sense to me *L*
I'll second Rammy.
Just finished watching it and now I'm curious about Trap-Jaw's weapons. Where do they go until he needs them?
Forrest Gump - "I may not be a smart man, but I know what love is" and "Is he smart, or is he like me?" Damn you Tom Hanks!
Gods & Generals - General Jackson's death scene. The Irish scene....
The recent Rattlesnake and Wildlife Festival in my home county. That's John Schneider, Bo Duke from the Dukes of Hazzard, beside me:
I just finished watching the Masque commentary. I really wish that hadn't been cut! It would have made those two episodes even better.
Beast Man
The Hobbit: There and Back Again.
Oh, great thread!
Daisy Duke
Batgirl and Catwoman from the 60s Batman show
Leia, slave or otherwise.
Nichelle Nichols...Good Lawd, did that woman look good in her Starfleet...
Sounds like a heck of a guy ;).
No booze *L*. There were youngin's around. And the snacks (pizza) were in the kitchen. That was one of the best pizzas I've had in a while.
*LOL* Kinda looks that way.
Just noticed this thread. This pic was taken at a Christmas get together I have with some cousins every year:

text: Page Content 1Printing and Document Scanning Policies and Procedures Definitions Banner Page: Banner pages, also known as job sheets or cover sheets, are used when printing in order to separate print jobs from each other and to identify the originator of the print request by username. These pages are sometimes used in office environments where many people share a printer. Canon Copy Center or CCC (formerly Document Center): The business area is located in the Central Services building on campus and is run by Canon employees of Canon Business Solutions. CCC provides copy and print services to the community, including binders, posters, brochures, and marketing-related documents. Digital Storefront (DSF): DSF is an online ordering system that allows for Babson faculty, staff, and students to interact with the Canon Copy Center to procure print and copy jobs. Environmental Sustainability: Ensuring that our approach to interacting with the environment is based upon the premise of keeping the environment as natural and untapped as possible, primarily by changing human behavior and with a focus on the three "r's": "reduce, reuse, and recycle." Fleet: All of the basic document production devices that are outside of the Canon Copy Center, including copiers, fax machines, standalone printers (including desktops), scanners, and multifunction devices (MFD). Impression: This is a print from the Canon MFD or networked LaserJet, which refers to ink/toner applied to a sheet of paper. Local Desktop Device: Any printer or single user device locally connected to a computer (including printers, scanners, and fax machines). Migration Strategy: Part of the change management print strategy that Canon is promoting, where Babson colleagues will transition from printing to local desktop devices and networked LaserJets to the larger, more cost effective MFDs. The strategy is built upon the idea that employees will voluntarily move to the MFDs once they know the benefits of doing so (e.g. less costly, more sustainable, more print/copy features). Multifunction Device (MFD): Any network capable document production device that performs at least two of the following tasks: print, copy, fax, and scan. In addition to tracking document production, MFDs can work with print control software, such as Pharos. Scan-enabled MFDs are part of Babson's overall print/copy management strategy. Networked LaserJet: any Hewlett Packard (HP) or other brand networked printer shared by multiple users. Personal Information (PI): An individual's first name and last name or first initial and last name in combination with one or more of the following data elements: social security number, driver's license number or state-identification card number, or financial account number, or credit or debit card number, with or without any required security code, access code, personally identifiable identification number or password, that would permit access to a resident's financial account. (Massachusetts General Law Chapter 93H) Pharos: A software company that manufactures the network print management software, Uniprint. Uniprint provides print job identification for all print jobs sent to networked devices. This system could enable the College to perform departmental chargebacks or monitor departmental impressions. Purpose The purpose of this policy is to establish a printing and document scanning (imaging) policy for all Babson College departments and business areas. The policies in this document address the development, management, and storage of Babson College document production images or "assets". These assets are produced by document production resources, including multifunction devices, printers, copiers, fax machines, and scanning devices. Multifunction devices (MFDs) are office machines which incorporate the functionality of multiple devices in one, including printer, scanner, copier, and fax machine. See prior pages for definitions and terminology used in this policy. Responsibility It is the device users' responsibility to review, understand, and comply with all printing and document scanning policies and procedures. Users are defined as faculty, staff, and students of Babson College and of third party organizations that utilize resources funded by the college. Babson's Chief Information Officer and Chief Financial Officer will be responsible for the fair and consistent application of these policies, in addition to ensuring that the college continues to improve the use and management of document production resources. Canon Business Solutions, the chosen vendor, is responsible for all multifunctional devices, the Canon Copy Center or CCC (formerly Document Center), and "break/fix" repairs and maintenance on approved, networked LaserJets. Any new multifunction device placement requires the approval of Canon and the Director of Business Services. Canon MFD Default Settings In order to meet our obligations as a signatory to the American College and University President's Climate Commitment, Babson College has worked with Canon to determine the default settings for the new MFDs across campus. With sustainability consideration as a goal, all Canon MFDs default: to double-sided print; to black and white print, where color print is an option; to shut off banner pages. For one-sided print and color (where applicable), the default settings can be manually changed for a specific print job but will default back to original settings when the end user closes out of the file and application. In order to activate the banner page print feature, on all print jobs to a specific MFD, an end user's request must be approved by the VP or Division Chair, in accordance with the Director of Business Services. Request for Local Desktop Devices and Networked LaserJets The ultimate goal of Babson's migration strategy is to encourage and support use of the MFDs for printing, copying, faxing, and scanning needs within each department. Part of Babson's overall strategy is to significantly reduce the total number of local desktop devices on campus to reduce our carbon footprint, meet our sustainability initiatives, and significantly reduce printing costs. These local devices are the most expensive document output processes and use more energy and supplies, and therefore the fewer we have the more sustainable we are. However, there may be instances or exceptions where a local printing device is needed. Any individual or department that can justify the current print device or that requests a new print device, including a desktop or inkjet, must obtain formal approval from the Vice President or Finance & Operating Committee member of that area. Ultimately, the VP or Finance & Operating Committee member, in consultation with the Director of Business Services, will confirm whether the local print or desktop device is warranted, based on the following criteria: The employee is a member of the Finance & Operating Committee or is at VP level and above; The nearest MFD or networked LaserJet is more than 100 feet away from the employee's work station or office, the office area layout has constraints that require an added device, or there is no MFD in that campus building or floor; The employee's job function warrants consistent and significant printing (at least 5 or 10 print jobs per day) of highly sensitive or confidential material that cannot be satisfied by the secured print release feature on the MFDs; please refer to the Data Security Policy for more information on sensitive data; The employee's tasks require color printing of small print jobs (less than 15 pages), and there is no color MFD available in the area; also, the print jobs are time sensitive on a regular basis and therefore cannot be satisfied through the Canon Copy Center schedule; The employee has special printing needs on a consistent and regular basis, which are defined as part of the employee's job function and description, including special paper or letterhead requirements; Requiring the employee to walk to the MFD would constitute a substantial hardship (e.g. medical disability or handicap). Upon approval of a local desktop device by the VP or Finance & Operating Committee member and the Director of Business Services, it is at the discretion of IT Support to consider the relocation of existing local devices on campus in order to satisfy an exception for a local device. The funding for an approved, local desktop device (and associated parts or supplies) will be the financial and budgetary responsibility of the individual department or office making the request. Service/Repair of Print Devices All networked devices, including Canon multifunction devices and networked LaserJets, will be serviced and repaired through the Canon Copy Center and under the Canon agreement. Supplies for networked devices, such as toner or cartridge replacement, will be provided by the Canon Copy Center under the agreement. Any local desktop devices will be serviced by ITSD, and the purchase of parts or supplies for local desktop devices will be the responsibility of the individual department or office. For local desktop devices: supplies, such as ink cartridges, should be purchased through the Staples or office supply online ordering system; parts must be purchased by ITSD. Print Management Strategy Babson is managing printing and copying in order to support its efforts toward environmental sustainability, in addition to reducing print costs. Babson has installed more efficient print and copy devices that will reduce power consumption and paper usage with double-sided print and scanning capabilities. For undergraduate and graduate students, there is an "honor code" in place and no print quotas, since the expectation is that printing is not excessive. The maximum threshold for an acceptable print count is 750 printed pages or less per month per student. For students who consistently print more than that, this information will be shared with the school Dean, and the Dean will be asked to gather more information to understand the reasons for excessive printing. This information will be communicated to the Director of Business Services. Babson will continue to review and assess faculty and staff usage of MFDs and networked LaserJets, based on the print impression count data provided by Canon and IT. This data will help to determine whether there are departments or individuals with excessive impression counts. Phase 2 targets faculty and staff to change end user behavior through education and marketing, with a focus on sustainability. Phase 2 of the print strategy continues through 2012-2013 and will consist of the following actions: Continue a Marketing Campaign to Highlight Printing's Impact on Sustainability and Costs; Canon's Walkthrough of Faculty/Staff Buildings to Identify Printers, Locations, and Volumes and Determine Whether Device or Process Changes are Recommended; Create, Analyze, and Review Print Data and Metrics from Pharos Reporting. Note: We are awaiting more flexible pharos reporting capability from the IT department in the latter part of 2012 or early part of 2013 that would allow the Business Office to communicate using emails to faculty, staff, and students with individual and group print metrics. This is part of the print and sustainability awareness campaign that the College has been working on with Canon. Phase 3 would be implemented only if the decision was made to move forward with departmental charge back of print or impression counts for networked devices. This determination will be made upon ongoing review of previous academic years' print data. Another consideration would be whether to charge back for copy counts, but this would also be considered in conjunction with the assessment of print counts. Ordering Supplies and Print Jobs To order copy/print paper, employees should contact Mail Services by phone or email. Paper is delivered to the individual departments upon request. Employees ordering toner or ink cartridges for MFDs or approved, networked LaserJets should contact the Canon Copy Center via phone or email. The purchase of parts and supplies for local desktop devices will be the budget responsibility of the individual department or office. Departments will continue to be charged for posters and binders that are ordered through the Canon Copy Center. Canon will provide an interface file to our Accounting office on a monthly basis in order to facilitate this. In areas with no high-production Canon devices, departments should be encouraged to send large print and copy jobs more than 100 pages to the Canon Copy Center for processing. Canon, in collaboration with Mail Services, will deliver completed print and copy jobs to faculty and staff on campus. Print job orders to the Canon Copy Center can be placed by phone, email, or using the Digital Store Front Online Ordering System. The DSF Online Ordering System is currently being used in some departments on campus. DSF Online Ordering System allows departments on campus to do the following: Order toner or ink cartridges for MFDs or for approved networked LaserJets; Request print jobs from the Canon Copy Center; right now, departments are charged for binders and posters. Print job data will continue to be collected and analyzed to determine whether other "specialty" jobs will be charged back to departments. Pricing for all print jobs (whether charged back or not) will be maintained by the Canon Copy Center personnel and updated accordingly through the DSF Online Ordering System. Canon Business Solutions or Canon Copy Center employees will provide training to Babson individuals who use the online ordering system. Additional training can be subsequently provided by Canon at any time. Document Imaging or Scanning All of Canon's multifunction devices have scanning capability. The College activated scanning on most of these devices in early September 2010, in order to promote less paper and toner use and create a more sustainable print/copy environment at Babson. The College's scanning policy requires that the following guidelines be adhered to: All Babson employees must receive formal training from Canon personnel in order to activate and use the scanning feature on the multifunction devices; Scan to email is the method that IT will support. Anything scanned to email from a Canon MFD should be removed from the user's email inbox; Departments that work with Personal Information (PI) or confidential data and who wish to scan documents with said data must obtain prior approval from the Data Security Committee; Copyrighted materials may not be scanned, unless permission is obtained from the copyright owner; Stored documents are subject to compliance with Babson's Personal Information Security Plan and the data security laws, specifically MA 201CMR Data Breach Law (effective 3/01/10); Scanning resolution for the MFDs will not burden the network/email capacity or bandwidth. Security Authentication Canon devices have several authentication options to ensure that only approved users may access the device and its functions, including copy, print, fax, and scan. Authentication can also provide Babson with the ability to control usage of color and black & white output, as well as total print impressions by department or user. Canon devices support three types of user authentication methods, including: department ID, simple device login (SDL), or single sign on (SSO). Babson has locked down devices to unauthorized access and has also locked down print servers. Secured print is an authenticated print function that holds a job in queue until the user enters the appropriate password or swipes a card at the Canon device. This ensures that any secure or confidential data is not printed until the user is at the device and can retrieve the print job immediately. Canon will train Babson faculty and staff how to use this feature on all the MFDs. Data Erase Kits Canon has installed and activated the HDD Data Erase Kits on all MFDs across campus, in order to ensure that the devices' systems overwrite the internal image server hard disk, erasing previous data stored as part of job processing. System administrators have the option to configure the level of overwrite protection. If there are further questions regarding security or data access, please contact the IT Service Center at extension 4357.

DC Spectrum 14 Softshell Jacket - Men's
? Share a...
This is it
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
A great layer, vented pits, removable snowskirt, media pocket, it's basic but very practical, waterproof. I love this jacket, great as an outer layer in winter or just a hoodie for spring/early season. XL fits nice (I'm 6ft) and could get a thin hoodie underneath in the winter and still have plenty freedom of movement. Plus that classic DC logo can't go wrong, if you care about that stuff
You won't be disappointed, go on get one

This week, the Department of Commerce's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) kicked-off a national dialogue to improve our nation's readiness for extreme weather. At the Weather [8]- [8]Ready [8] [8]Nation [8]: [8]A [8] [8]Vital [8] [8]Conversation [8] workshop, held in Norman, Okla., participants assessed why the nation has become more vulnerable to severe weather and identified ways to improve the public's awareness, preparedness and response to future extreme events.
More than 1,000 lives have been lost this year to extreme weather, including about 550 from tornadoes. And the economic losses are equally staggering—at least 12 [9]separate [9] [9]weather [9] [9]disasters [9], each with $1 billion or more in economic losses.
These impacts moved NOAA's National Weather Service to launch an initiative called Weather-Ready Nation. The goal is to improve America's readiness for weather events and save more lives and livelihoods. The Norman event is the first in a series of Weather-Ready Nation activities to be held across the country.
On Tuesday, Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin, NOAA Administrator Dr. Jane Lubchenco and National Weather Service Director Dr. Jack Hayes welcomed a diverse group of national experts and leaders including emergency managers, academics, private sector weather forecasters, communication experts, news media and decision-makers.
Dr. Lubchenco called Weather-Ready Nation a shift in mindset. "Severe weather threats can no longer be looked at as inconveniences, or viewed fatalistically. Victims don't have to be caught 'in the wrong place at the wrong time'," she said.
"Becoming a Weather-Ready Nation is a shared responsibility from the federal government to the individual citizen and everyone in between," said Hayes. "This national dialogue will help us understand the individual challenges we face, and lead to coordinated actions that will produce a truly Weather-Ready Nation."
The three-day workshop had experts work in small groups tackling topics such as improving the forecasts and warning system, communicating threats to the public, increasing community resilience, and identifying gaps in our current understanding of planning, coordination, and decision-making in a community.
Cataloguing the variety of devastating weather disasters—from ice storms to extreme drought to deadly tornadoes—that have plagued her state since her inauguration a year ago, Gov. Fallin praised NOAA for taking steps to help America better prepare for severe weather.
NOAA's Deputy Administrator Dr. Kathryn Sullivan, who participated in the working groups, spoke about the importance of today's interactions and idea sharing. "The surest path to big outcomes are little bets we can make with each other," she said.
Findings and recommendations from the workshop will be presented Jan. 23 at Weather [10]- [10]Ready [10] [10]Nation [10]: [10]A [10] [10]Vital [10] [10]Conversation [10] [10]on [10] [10]Tornadoes [10] [10]and [10] [10]Severe [10] [10]Weather [10] town hall at the American Meteorological Society Annual Meeting in New Orleans.
Video [11] of the speakers and photos [12] of the event are available. For more information about Weather-Ready Nation, visit http [13]:// [13]www [13]. [13]nws [13]. [13]noaa [13]. [13]gov [13]/ [13]com [13]/ [13]weatherreadynation [13]/ [13].

How They Got Here:
Kiffin: def. Natalie Gulbis (55%-45%); def. Danica Patrick (56%-44%)
Mitts: def. Ana Ivanovic (69%-31%); def. Gina Carano (59%-41%)
He's not the tourney's only Cinderella, but Lane Kiffin does have the distinction of being its only male contestant. Through grit and sheer anti-determination (and maybe because he takes such good care of his hair), Kiffin was able to make it farther than Tennessee fans and even the selection committee ever thought possible. Especially considering his pump-up routine.
As for Heather Mitts, it's no surprise that voters would be unfamiliar with her program. She plays soccer... in the United States. Although Kiffin may have the higher national profile, Mitts does have a slight advantage: She is a woman. (And in the span of her career, she's won only twelve fewer football games.)
