I'm planning on doing exactly this for the internal drive on the old junker laptop that's my home fileserver. Have it load a vmlinuz and initrd off the internal harddrive, then turn it off, run entirely off the initrd, fileserve entirely off the chain of external USB hard drives slung off it. Since compactflash looks exactly like an IDE drive to the system, I'm looking forward to building myself some genuinely diskless, no moving parts systems one of these days, using the same trick. Booting off something that isn't the hdd is hard, but booting a nice big decadent initrd off the hdd then turning it off is dead simple. Shoehorning everything a body could want into whatever slack is left after you fit a vmlinuz onto a floppy is tricky. But building a happy custom server into a 4MB, or 8MB, or 16MB initrd is easy and fun, especially with uClibc + BusyBox:-). -Bennett -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Al Horford matches career high with 31 to lead 2nd-half rally as Hawks top Bulls
ATLANTA -- With his Hawks trailing the Chicago Bulls 14-0 after missing their first seven shots, coach Larry Drew called a timeout and "just told the guys we were all right."
Al Horford then showed he was better than that, delivering one of the best games of his career to lead a comeback that wasn't complete until the final minute.
Horford matched his career high with 31 points, including a jam with 29 seconds remaining to give Atlanta its first lead, and the Hawks beat the Bulls 83-80 on Wednesday night.
"We're a different team from earlier this year," Horford said. "I liked the fight I saw tonight. Shots weren't going in and we kept playing. This team has a lot of heart."
After their 14-0 run to open the game, the Bulls took a 19-point lead in the second quarter and kept the lead until the final minute.
More On The Bulls
Can't get enough NBA news and notes? ESPNChicago.com has all the latest on the Bulls. Blog
Horford had 16 rebounds and two steals, including one against Derrick Rose after Horford's go-ahead basket. The steal set up a jam by Joe Johnson for the final margin.
Rose had 12 points and 12 assists, but he made only five of 21 shots and had a game-high six turnovers. He accepted responsibility for the loss.
"I made some careless passes," Rose said. "The game was definitely on me. ... But I guarantee it won't happen again."
Added Rose: "Careless. Careless. We let one escape for real."
Luol Deng led the Bulls with 15 points. Joakim Noah had 13 points and 12 rebounds.
The Hawks were without injured forward Josh Smith. Johnson and Jamal Crawford each had 12 points. Johnson had nine assists.
The Hawks cut Chicago's lead to 79-78 on a 3-pointer by Marvin Williams with 1:18 remaining.
Atlanta finally pulled even at 79 when Horford made one of two free throws. A free throw by Noah gave Chicago an 80-79 lead.
Following a timeout, Crawford drove toward the basket and passed to Horford, whose jam gave Atlanta its first lead at 81-80.
Chicago's Kyle Korver missed a 3-pointer at the final buzzer.
Horford had 13 points in the third quarter as the Hawks cut into Chicago's lead.
"He was a beast tonight," Drew said. "He did it all at both ends.
"In the huddles he was cheering the guys and telling them to keep playing. He was phenomenal."
Williams said Horford is at his best when playing against Noah, his former University of Florida teammate.
"Al would probably never admit it, but I think it's personal," Williams said. "You always want to bring it against your former [teammates], and he does it every time."
Horford said he tried to take up the slack for Smith, who had an MRI on his right knee during the game. Smith hurt his knee in Monday night's loss at Denver and the team said he sprained his medial collateral ligament.
"With Josh out, I felt like I had to step up my game a notch," Horford said.
Noah was impressed.
"Horford played great," he said. "It was an outstanding effort.
"It's a tough way to lose, but it just shows you've got to play the game for 48 minutes."
The Bulls established a physical and dominant pace when Noah beat Horford for the opening tip.
Rose penetrated and passed to Carlos Boozer, who dunked for the game's first basket. Noah blocked a shot by Horford on the other end, and the Bulls were on their way to the 14-0 run.
Johnson, guarded by Deng much of the game, missed seven of eight shots in the first half. He finished with 12 points on 5-for-20 shooting.
Chicago starters outscored Atlanta's first five 42-16 in the half for a 50-33 lead.
Kirk Hinrich had three points while making his first start in his third game with the Hawks. He was acquired in a five-player trade with Washington last week.
Tensions flared late in the first half when Horford was fouled hard by Boozer, who wrapped his arm under the All-Star center's chin. With Horford on his back under the basket, Hawks center Zaza Pachulia pushed Chicago players away. Horford remained in the game to make one of two free throws.
Game notes
Chicago has lost six straight in Atlanta since its last win on April 1, 2007. ... The Hawks recalled G-F Pape Sy from Utah of the Development League. ... Jason Collins started for Smith. ... The Hawks went 8:48 without a field goal in the second quarter. ... Horford hit his first 3-pointer of the season and second of his career in the third quarter. His double-double was his 30th of the season.

Jin is the son of Gorou Kanzaki , a scientist which worked for Amagi Corps to create a new race of super-humans ,which would be called NET. Jin is the result of a failed attempt at creating NET ,hence his ZET name . Eventually NET required founding ,hence it was decided that the current super-humans developed would be made to fight each other in death match in front of large audiences of wealthy individuals and would now be called the Players. Eventually, the Players began to exhibit self-awareness and a rebellion occurred among them and they went on to massacre the spectators of the event.
Witnessing the horror of the slaughter Mitsugai Amagi one of the co-founders of the NET project decided to use ZET as a tool to defeat Players and prevent them from going out and killing the innocent which were not involved in the project. Gorou refused and decided to raise Jin (which was still a baby at this time as a human).
About a decade into the future, Gorou and Jin live together homeless with Gorou trying to teach Jin to not be violent and home-schooling him, Gorou makes Jin believe he's his grandfather.At this period of time Jin is seen going around the city to rescue people for a monetary reward which he intends on using to buy a house for him and his dad.Eventually,Jin and Gorou run into a Player which attempts suicide and goes berserk after Jin tries to save him and kills his dad.Jin is then taken in by Akemi Kawakami a stripper that was saved by Jin from her ex-boyfriend.
Jin encounters a second Player in a fire and fights and defeats him and turns into his Zet form for the first time which results in him fallin unconscious.During his state of vulnerability, Mitsugai abducts Jin and informs him of his nature and of the implications of becoming Zet.

Sir Alex Ferguson is too hungry to retire insists Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger never felt a 'hungry' Sir Alex Ferguson was ready to retire and is relishing going head to head with his old adversary for a few years yet. Ferguson will celebrate his 69th birthday at the end of this year and has shown no sign of being affected by the pressures of being Manchester United manager since 1986. Old adversaries: Wenger says he wasn't surprised when Sir Alex announced he has no plans to retire However, the Scot has always stated that his health is of paramountimportance and stories emerged recently claiming he would leave his jobat the end of next term, with former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho linedup as his successor. Ferguson, though, today dismissed those as 'rubbish' and Wenger, whoturned 60 last year and recently became the longest serving manager inArsenal's history, believes both men have a few more years left inthem. 'You see the way he behaves and manages his team that the hunger isthere,' said Wenger, whose current contract runs out at the end of nextseason. Out of the race: Arsenal are now six points behind Chelsea after losing at Wigan 'As long as he will live the hunger will be there for success. Thatis something that does not die in you. 'When you get older you have toanalyse and consider your health, where you have the physical strengthto do the job. 'But to me at the moment he does not look to have any problem. It is always interesting facing him.' On his own long-term plans, Wenger added: 'My future is decided byhow well I do and the second part is how much I enjoy what I do andthat is it. 'I still feel I have a few years in front of me if I havethe luck to be healthy.' I'm going nowhere!

Politicians Decry Cuts, Point Fingers
With Friday's deadline nearing, few in the nation's capital were optimistic that a realistic alternative could be found and all sought to cast the political process itself as the culprit. If Congress does not step in, a top-to-bottom series of cuts will be spread across domestic and defense agencies in a way that would fundamentally change how government serves its people.
And, yes, those cuts will hurt. The cuts would slash from domestic and defense spending alike, leading to furloughs for hundreds of thousands of government workers and contractors.
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta has said the cuts would harm the readiness of U.S. fighting forces. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said travelers could see delayed flights. Education Secretary Arne Duncan said 70,000 fewer children from low-income families would have access to Head Start programs. And furloughed meat inspectors could leave plants idled.
In Virginia, for instance, 90,000 Defense Department civilian employees could be furloughed, including nurses at Army hospitals, said Sen. Tim Kaine (D., Va.). He also said ship-repair contractors could lay off 300 of their 450 employees.
"There is no reason that this has to happen. We just need to find a balanced approach," Kaine said. Some governors said the impasse was just the latest crisis in Washington that is keeping businesses from hiring and undermining the ability of state leaders to develop their own spending plans. "It's senseless and it doesn't need to happen," said Gov. Martin O'Malley, (D., Md.) during the annual meeting of the National Governors Association this weekend. "And it's a damn shame, because we've actually had the fastest rate of jobs recovery of any state in our region. And this really threatens to hurt a lot of families in our state and kind of flat line our job growth for the next several months," said O'Malley. The budget cuts were all but certain to come up when Obama dines with the governors Sunday evening at the White House. But time to reach a deal is running out, and hope is waning. Suggestions intended to instill a spirit of compromise included bringing all sides to the bargaining table, where they could act like "adults," a presidential summit at Camp David and even a field trip to watch Lincoln. Yet none of those options was on the books.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

It is a bit unclear to me what the origin of this trend is, but several Olive Garden sub-reddits have been popping up and all seem to be along the same lines ie. a mocking worship of Olive Garden. Notable examples include /r/unlimitedbreadsticks and /r/actsofolivegarden. It appears to be linked to the so called "Olive Garden Conspiracy" (see reddit.com/r/olivegardenconspiracy ) which holds that Olive garden is using Reddit to advertise their business. The subreddits appear to mock this believe with posts like "Does anyone know any friendly, hometown, fine yet casual dining Italian places where I can get unlimited breadsticks?" which then links to OliveGarden.com. The posts and comments also seem to make fun of Reddit culture in general ie using words like "Le," "DAE," "[F]"/"[M]" and "AMA."

hm interesting. I saw a lot on the OG receipt following a house fire or something where everything was comped (i think that's what /r/olivegardenconspiracy was created for) but haven't seen all these other subreddits. would definitely keep an eye on this.
Ah, here is an explanation:

Question about iOS version (self.frozensynapse)
submitted 1 year ago by [deleted]
Did they fix the horrible design decisions around chat, game matching and forfeiting games?
In other words, did they add asynchronous chat so I can have a convo with my opponent without us needing to happen to be logged in at the same instant?
Can you now actually decline a match instead of having it sit around forever?
Can you resign if it is obvious to everyone that you've lost?
Great game, but those meta-flaws killed it for me. Would buy iOS version in a heartbeat if they are fixed.
[–]MarcusDA 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (1 child)
Chat is the same.
Don't know about declining a match - never tried.
No resignation I'm aware of.
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (0 children)
Oh well. The decision to enforce synchronous chat in a fundamentally asynchronous game is a baffling one. Really kills it for me since I like to use games as a way to keep in touch with geographically scattered friends.
[–]MrStrangelove44 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (1 child)
There is now a timeout, if you don't play your turn, it eventually forfeits

Not yet, sadly. Talked yesterday to the corresponding developer on IRC and he said that they're currently still busy ensuring that the server runs smoothly under heavy load (with all the new iPad users). He also said that it will come in the following weeks.

We are seeing uncivilized killers on the rampage of hated in Iraq. Americans do not belong anywhere near this religious civil war. Bush is still promoting our troops to save his legacy and he should be removed from office.
I see the Christian Conservatives backing Bush's desire to put our American troops in the line of fire. Life means little to these people until the life of the unborn is mentioned. To me this is the epitome of hypocrisy and these crazy members of the religious right should demand that our troops get the same respect as the unborn.
However that takes a stretch of brainpower that is not a subject of discussion as abortions must be prohibited at all costs.
The Separation of Church and State would clean up Iraq and might even clean up the White House.

Receiving Antenna in a Magnetoplasma in the Resonance Frequency Band

Get AccessAbstract
We find the rms voltage on a receiving dipole antenna in the electromagnetic field of a quasipotential-wave packet in a magnetoplasma in the resonance frequency band. It is shown that this voltage can be determined as a product of the electromagnetic-field amplitude of the incident wave by the effective length Leff of the receiving antenna. For a short dipole whose length is much smaller than the electromagnetic-mode wavelength, the antenna effective length is proportional to the product of the dipole effective length in free space by the excitation coefficient of quasielectrostatic waves (non-normalized electric-field pattern of a dipole). In the case where the receiving antenna is located in proximity to the resonance cone on the lighted side, this excitation coefficient is much greater than unity. Therefore, the determined voltage differs significantly from the conventional estimate which is based on formulas valid for antennas in free space. We perform our derivations using the reciprocity theorem and the fluctuation-dissipation theorem applied to a regular electromagnetic field and a receiving antenna, which constitute the special case of a system which is not in equilibrium but allows an equilibrium (stationary state) to be reached between the incident radiation field and the electromagnetic field reemitted by the antenna. The emphasis is placed on the universal nature of the applied calculation procedure which is valid for arbitrary antennas and matters.

TOOLS February 5, 2015 Spread Love from the Classroom to Your DoorstepYou aren't celebrating Valentine's Day this year? You're not alone. Only 54% of American's celebrated Valentine's Day last year which left us thinking… Valentine's Day is a good opportunity to teach kids to show love in non-material ways while building meaningful memories that last longer than roses or candy. This year bond with the kiddos and opt to spread some love and kindness to the people around you. Spread love in the Home
Spread love in the Classroom
Spread love in the Community
Get your F.L.C (Financial Loving Care) on and share a virtual Valentine's Day card with ones that you love – who knows, maybe you'll gain a frugal friend in return. December 4, 2014 The Gift That Actually Keeps on GivingWhile the holidays are most known for gift exchanges and family feasts, they are also a great opportunity to teach children valuable lessons about a different type of giving. Volunteering has a great deal of emotional and psychological benefits. In addition to increasing appreciation for what they have, volunteering reinforces empathy, sharing and finding meaning in non-materialistic pursuits. In fact, research has shown individuals who volunteered as children or observed their parents volunteering are more likely to carry a service ethic throughout their lifetime. There are many different ways to donate time and popular holiday season activities include helping with a holiday party at a local family shelter, serving food to the homeless or sending a card to members of the armed forces and veterans through American Red Cross Holiday Mail for Heroes. Looking beyond the holiday season, below are a number of other ideas to incorporate volunteering into your life year round.
November 3, 2014 Use Your Dough for Pie Crusts not Plane TicketsAccording to AAA, 94.5 million Americans traveled over the Holiday season in 2013. Holiday Travel is a feat to be tackled not by the faint of heart. Long lines, traffic, gas prices, luggage hauling, unhappy little ones, the list goes on and on. So why do we do it? Being with family and friends during the holiday season makes everything better; no matter how arduous the journey. What will not make the holidays any merrier is winding up with an overdrawn bank account on January 1st. Here's what you need to know as Holiday travel season looms: Holiday gridlock91% of holiday travelers in 2013, traveled by car. Thanks to smartphones and apps, however, you can get to your destination before Santa does and save money doing it. The one app you must have before you hit the road:
Less than ideal travel daysIt may take some schedule adjusting, but if you're willing to fly on less convenient days – you can score some fantastic deals. The holidays themselves are often the cheapest days to fly. If your family and friends can provide any flexibility in when they celebrate with you, then this can be a great way to save during the holiday frenzy. The one app the airlines don't want you to download:
Ship what you canAirlines have ramped up on the bag fees, many now charging for carry-ons as well, sometimes up to $45 one way for a bag. The option to ship can sometimes save more than $50, especially if you're packing your whole family in one suitcase and run the risk of having your luggage labeled "HEAVY," that usually means a hefty upcharge is coming your way. If you want to see a comprehensive list of baggage fees for each airline visit Airfare Watchdog. October 1, 2014 Financial fear factors — save your kids from scary financial habitsFindings from Northwestern's recent Planning & Progress Study underscored that talking about money is a fear factor for many Americans – shockingly – more so than even the birds and the bees. However, not having conversations about good money habits have even scarier consequences in the long-term. Below are a number of key principles that are the building blocks of financial security and should be reinforced early and often:
September 2, 2014 "Savings School" is in Session!School's back in session, but the learning doesn't just have to happen in the classroom. In fact, valuable lifelong lessons about financial responsibility usually happen at home. Below are some ideas from the Mint for a seasonal "savings school" lesson plan that will take your kids to the top of the class in financial discipline. Fall:Between overpriced candy and expensive, one time wear costumes, Halloween costs can be a real fear factor. A few tricks that will be a treat to your pocketbook while teaching the kids the concept of fun and frugal include creating a Halloween budget and creating incentives to stick to it. Tell your kids that whatever they save by hunting for candy coupons. DIY costumes, etc. will go to their personal savings accounts or towards souvenirs on the next family vacation. Winter:Reinforce the true spirit of the holiday season by emphasizing "giving" over buying. Don't just donate toys to a local organization, but see if you can bring the kids a volunteer event so they can see how that while presents are nice sharing their time is truly priceless. On that same note, brainstorm unique, personalized gifts could make with things you already have at home…including writing up coupons for services like dishwashing, homework help to siblings, etc. Check out this site for some cool DIY gift ideas. Spring:As the weather heats up, spring spending fever tends to strike. Take preventative measures by refocusing the kids' attention on earning rather than burning money. Set a "summer FUNDay" goal to raise money for summer purchases and activities like trips to amusement parks, water toys, etc. Assign rewards to certain chores and achievements that, when earned, will be contributed to the fund. Encourage the kids to collaborate by giving a bit more when they work together to get the job done. Summer:If your kids are hanging at home, challenge them to come up with innovative "staycation" ideas like camping in the backyard or turning the basement into a beauty salon for a day of pampering with friends. Also consider a "penny a day" program where you put the loose change from your purchases into a jar and encourage them to do the same with any change they find. An average of 50 cents a day over 90 days becomes $45 dollars by end of summer and equals a whole bunch of school supplies. August 1, 2014 Summer Vacation SPF (Savings. Prep. Fun)A summer getaway with the family is an opportunity for everyone to bond, relax, and recharge. While the memories may be priceless, vacation expenses can add up quickly and according to American Express 31% of travelers plan to spend more than $1,000 per person on their summer adventure. Below are some ideas to have fun in the sun without burning through your budget. A Penny A Day…Teach valuable lessons about saving, planning and responsibility while building excitement towards a trip by encouraging everyone in the family to contribute. Set up a big jar and offer incentives for chores that will go towards the vacation fund or make a game of finding coupons so that the money saved on grocery and drugstore shopping could be added to the vacation pot. Being specific as to what the fund will be used for, especially if its souvenirs and desserts, will likely be a great motivator! Another novel approach courtesy of Grandparents.com, is having the kids apply to their grandparents for a vacation grant. This is a great opportunity for kids to learn to state a business case and see how the real world works. Planes, Trains or AutomobilesDo the math before committing to a destination or mode of transportation. Calculate the number of passengers traveling, airfares, car rental fees, gas mileage, etc. to decide where to go and how to get there. In fact, this handy calculator can do the work for you. If you opt to fly, here are a few tricks of the trade:
Home Away From HomeThere is no place like home. While it may not be yours officially, a rental house, cabin, condo could be a comfortable and more affordable alternative to a hotel room… or several depending on the size and needs of your family. While cooking may not seem like the ideal vacation activity, renting a place with a fridge and a microwave is convenient when hungry, growing kids are involved and can save a ton on snacks while making it easier to eat healthy. VRBO, FlipKey, Vacation Home Rentals are all helpful options when it comes to finding a vacation rental and many have "last minute deals" if you have flexibility in scheduling. July 3, 2014 Planet Wise, Dollar BullishProtecting and preserving our planet is essential to our quality of life today and in the future. Summer is a great time to teach your kids important lessons about becoming more green while saving green to boot: Bright ideaCompact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) use two thirds less energy than a regular light bulb and could last 8 to 15 times longer. No paper, no problemIf you have subscriptions to hard copy publications or still receive billing statements in the mail, you may want to consider switching to the digital versions. You'll cut clutter and costs (online subscriptions are often cheaper than print) while saving trees. It is also a lot easier to carry five books on your tablet than in your tote bag when you go on vacation. Everything old is cool againHave tons of affordable fun making recycled crafts with your kids this summer by transforming baby food jars, can crafts, paper bags, orphaned socks, and other household items in gorgeous, green masterpieces. Before getting started, just make sure you clean your recycled supplies thoroughly and check for any sharp edges. June 4, 2014 Summer – that magical season where kids are home all day and parents have to find unique, fun ways to keep them entertained.Below are a few ideas that combine quality time with opportunities to reinforce important lessons about money smarts. 1. Grocery Game ShowTurn your next shopping trip into a competition. Tell the kids what items are on your list and let them go nuts with the coupons (who knows what deals they might uncover). When you get to the store everyone can hunt for the best prices and if the total at the register comes in under budget it's a win for the whole family. With the money left over from the grocery budget after your kids have found some amazing bargains; split the extra cash amongst their piggy banks so they can save for something they really want! The lesson of course being, if you're prudent with certain things, then you will have more flexibility when it comes to the things you want. 2. Treasure TrailTake a stroll around the block, on a trail, wherever you would like and you might be amazed at the financial gems you could stumble upon. Save up all the pennies, dimes, nickels and quarters you find and see how much you've accumulated by the end of the summer. You might be able to pay for a couple ice cream cones. 3. Challenge your Children to the Barnes & Noble Summer Reading ProgramThrough this program, children read any eight books and record them in the Reading Journal. Then bring completed Reading Journal to local Barnes & Noble Store and the kids can choose a FREE BOOK.
4. Play a New Board GameTry playing new board games each week such as Monopoly Junior, Payday, Life, Allowance, Careers and Charge It. Each game allows children to think about saving money, investing money and making life decisions while having fun! April 3, 2014 The Biggest Financial Mistakes Made by Young MillennialsIt's April, which means, flowers, sunshine and of course, Financial Literacy Month! Our sister website, TheMintGrad, asked three financial experts to tell us about what they see as the biggest financial mistakes made by young millennials. As kids grow up and families get older young millennials need tools and guidance to get them through what can be a few financially turbulent years. Read what these experts had to say…. Financial Flub #1 failing to invest
Financial Flub #2 automatic spending may make you automatically broke
Financial Flub # 3 being un-realistic

Clerk narrowly dodges bullet in store shooting
A Longview clerk showed her mettle for the second time within a year Saturday, returning gunfire on an assailant as he fled a Fourth Street convenience store.
"He cocked the gun to shoot (at) me again, and then I went barrel to barrel with him," Robin Adams said in the EZ Food Mart where she and her store manager husband, Jimmy, returned to work Sunday. "This thing happened so fast that nothing was said about money. It was like he came in here to kill me."
Store clerk Robin Adams of the EZ Food Mart at 1008 N. Fourth St. tends to daily business Sunday after exchanging gunshots with an armed robber the night before.
No one was injured in the shooting.
At 9:59 p.m. Saturday, Adams was ringing up orange juice and a cigarillo for a customer when man stepped rapidly in front of her register and raised a handgun, firing once.
"He's shooting right at her face," the manager said as he replayed an in-store video showing the man firing at his wife of 31 years. "She's got powder burns on her face."
The video shows the clerk bending slightly at the register when the gun was raised toward her. She stands up, moving her head reflexively to the left while lifting a .32-caliber pistol from a shelf just inches below the cash till.
"I'm just so happy I got lucky and tilted my head," she said, estimating the bullet missed her skull by fewer than three inches. "And the only choice I had was to pull mine out."
The clerk fired once on the fleeing man, striking a plastic glass partition. The assailant's bullet had nicked the top of a pack of Winston Light 100s behind Adams' head and continued through the store front glass.
"When I saw that glass, I knew that could've been the back of my skull," she said. "I can't believe this happened to me the night before the first Sunday in Lent. You never know what you would do in a situation like that."
The redhead gave an indication of her strong will during an attempted carjacking this past summer. She said she had been leaving a parking lot in the 1200 block of East Marshall Avenue in June when a man running from police jumped into her back seat and ordered her to drive.
"I started slapping on him, and he bailed out," she recalled.
That incident prompted her husband to take her to a local gun range for shooting lessons. She became a clerk at the EZ Mart, at 1008 N. Fourth St., in October.
"I don't like guns, but he wanted me to learn to shoot guns," she said. "When I got carjacked back in the summertime, that's when my husband said, 'You are going to learn to use a pistol.' And he took me out to the range."
Adams is in the process of obtaining a conceal/carry permit for her weapon. She said police officers told her the so-called castle doctrine, a Texas law expanding the legal definition of self defense, appeared to justify her use of the gun particularly since she was handling money at the time.
"The police took it away, ran a check on it to make sure it is clean and gave it back to me," she said. "They said, 'Take your gun back; you're going to need it.' I didn't intend to ever use it, but in this situation he was trying to kill me."
The couple said Sunday that they suspect the assailant had waited for the husband to leave the store.
"I'd been gone about three minutes when that happened," he said. "We've thrown several people out of here recently troublemakers. ... He didn't ask for no money, he didn't say anything he came in, pointed at her face and pulled the trigger."
His wife, a New Orleans native, described herself as "a very feisty Cajun."
"I don't like violence, I don't like disrespect or confrontation," she said. "But, my problem is, if you scare me you are in trouble."
She said the full impact of the ordeal had not sunk in yet.
"We went home and laid in bed for two hours with our eyes open," she said. "And we didn't get any sleep. Everybody's treating me like a baby today."
Longview police are asking anyone with information about the crime to call the department at (903) 237-1110 or Gregg County Crime Stoppers at (903) 236-STOP.
Good for her. I especially like how the police ran her gun and handed it back to her. I don't think that would be the case here in New England.

Various security measures are in place to monitor the building's perimeter.
Should someone try to scale a wall to climb onto the roof, a motion detector sets a siren wailing. Video cameras are also set up and in a somewhat hidden alcove in the back, an anti-loitering device -the controversial mosquito - deters people from gathering.
Sadly, these combined efforts weren't enough to stave off $20,000 in vandalism at Brock middle school in March that two teens were ultimately arrested for.
And Brock and six other schools were hit last weekend with broken windows and graffiti, a huge frustration for the school district.
"We kind of expect it and budget for it," said assistant Supt. Karl deBruijn, noting repairing such damage is a "frustrating waste of money" that could be better spent.
RCMP note many youths hang out around schools at night and while most are not doing anything wrong, groups of kids with idle time can definitely lead to mischief.
There's no one cure-all for the problem, but perhaps it's time to take a idea from the Vancouver school district and set schools buzzing with a few more crowd deterrents.
The mosquito noise device makes a high-pitched sound audible only to those under the age of 25, though it can be set to a different range that can be picked up by older ears as well.
They were deactivated from Vancouver schools in April, after the school board there said the boxes had never been sanctioned, but after checking with their legal beagles and the health authority - and enduring a rash of serious vandalism at several schools while they were off - the decision was made to turn them back on.
The Vancouver district operates mosquitoes between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., a time when no one needs to be congregating around schools.
The B.C. Civil Liberties Association opposes the devices, suggesting they unfairly target all children. But as the mosquitoes can be set at various ranges, it would be easy enough to counter that claim by operating them at a level other ages could hear as well.
There is a raft of websites with sample mosquitoes where people can see if they've got the ears of someone under 25.
I played test monkey with my mid-40-year-old ears and asked a 30-something coworker to join me in the experiment, so we could know how it sounded.
The mosquitoes that are supposed to deter youths run at a frequency of 17.4 kHz and the ones that could be set to annoy most people can be set at eight kHz.
I could hear 15 kHz, her more youthful ears picked up 17 kHz and eight kHz was downright loud. The noises weren't pleasant - squeaky, metallic, like a high-pitched dog whistle. If the sound was playing around the perimeter of a building, I sure wouldn't hang around, and have to assume it would have the same effect on loitering youths.
Granted, in instances of idiots rapidly smashing windows with hockey sticks, these devices may not do the job, but kids hanging about places mosquitoes are activated would find somewhere else to park themselves.
At around $1,000 per unit, it's an experiment worth trying at a few more schools.
Let's make some noise.

- Get your area ready! Cover work area with newspaper to protect surface from splatters. Place the Wooden Memory Book on the newspaper. Prepare the Wooden Memory Book surface
following the manufacturer's directions. Do not attach hinges at this time. Store in a safe place for later use. - Start Painting! Paint the entire Memory Book with a basic white primer. Once the primer is dry, paint the entire Memory Book with a light blue acrylic paint (such as Delta Ceramacoat, Blue
Heaven). - Use Pattern as a Guide! Lightly sketch or transfer the pattern onto book. To transfer the design, tape carbon transfer paper and enlarged pattern in place. Do not outline individual waves, as nipped glass pieces will vary in size and may not conform exactly to pattern.
- Place Precut! Using PVA glue or mosaic glue, adhere precut into place.
- Cut Stained Glass Chips! In order to create waves, center glass chip between the blades of the nipper, and nip. Follow this procedure and nip both of the previously nipped glass chips into two more pieces. Each strip should be about 1/8" wide. You should get about 4 strips out of each 3/4" glass chip. (Photo shows strips ending approximately 2" from the bottom of the book). Arrange glass wave into your desired position and glue into place.
- Paint The Picture! Now you can begin painting the details. This is your opportunity to be creative! You may use the pattern below or let your imagination flow. If painting is not where your passion lies, you may choose to use pre-cuts or perhaps create the palm tree with stained glass chips. You may also choose to place snapshots into the scene for a more personalized look.
- Finish up! If you have decided to follow the pattern, it is now time to glue the stars into place. Place a small dot of PVA glue or mosaic glue to the back of each star and secure in place.
- Put it together! Now that your masterpiece is created, it is time to put the book together. Follow the manufacturer's directions for assembling your Wooden Memory Book.
- Enjoy!

Self Identified Post Whores and the Truth! Source: http://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=43707
Terribly misleading graphic. Any "post whore" data that does not in some way reflect my "contributions" (even outside of that particular thread) does not accurately reflect reality. Oh, and +1
Sometimes, you want to stay active but have absolutely nothing worthwhile to say.
Hey, knock that shvt off. We're drinkin' here.
That's just alot of cheap talk... as the graph suggests.
Bow to your new king sflcowboy78
Since this graph is based on post whoring is it post whoring as well? Is this post I'm posting post whoring? If you tell me that my post is post whoring are you post whoring?
Primary: All grain pale ale, Pliny The Elder clone Bottled:Double Noogie IPA, Amber Ale Kegged: Brewcraft Dead Guy kit,Apfelwein, Raspberry wheat beer
Since that thread is where post whore's are known to associate, you sir would be a post whore without noteriety. This is a serious social commentary thread.

quote:eta: stores also mark up to make a profit, so by eliminating the middle man (store), it would only be natural to assume the cost would be lower.
quote: I pass on a lot of cool looking games simply because I don't feel like spending $60 on a game.
quote:another key component to this discussion is exactly what is the agreement between the developer and the retailer, and how different is said agreement between different entities.
quote: used game sales proceeds goes to the retailer, not the developer, there by rendering this statement:
quote:They're cheaper on PSN for nearly all vita games. 10% off.
quote: Retailers take a 20-25% cut of the game sale
quote: And it's another 5% cost to manufacture and ship the game
quote:Digital copies also eliminate the used game "problem" that companies have
quote:So you would think that cutting out those costs would lower the price of the game. It's the same shite with e-books too
quote:He's saying that digital games eliminate/reduce the used game market, so it's another reason to reduce the pricing.
quote:so a supplier finds a way to increase profitability and you expect them to turn around and do something that then decreased profitability? seriously?
quote: All you're getting is a downloaded version of the game and no insurance in case your Xbox gets wiped out
quote:its an incentive to get the digital download trend moving
quote:For the most part I think we all understand that a company wants to maximize profits
quote:the markup by the retailer is eliminated with DD
quote:f you buy a part (say a replacement part for your computer) directly from Dell, do you expect it to be cheaper than if you bought the same part from Newegg? if so, would you be shocked to learn that newegg is usually cheaper?
quote:obviously not if this thread is any indication. posts such as "their cost went down so their price should go down" prove this type of ignorance. to be clear, that comment isnt directed towards you.
quote:that depends on the provider of content.
quote: if you buy a part (say a replacement part for your computer) directly from Dell, do you expect it to be cheaper than if you bought the same part from Newegg?
quote:Actually this is the EXACT model RockAuto has used to become uber succesful in the car parts business.
quote:Then PS3 360 would be a good example. The markup by retailers for 1st party games is completely gone with DD.
quote:well i have never heard of RockAuto
quote:need to keep in mind that Sony and Microsoft lose money on the consoles for a good time period, so eliminating the retail side may be a necessary step in the business plan.
quote:.the goal is to maximize profits..I doubt that the move to DD is specifically to offset console costs.
quote:Well you do not have to pay tax.
quote:Paying for convenience.
quote: The convenience of not being able to just take it to your friends house or playing it on as many different systems as you desire?

We're not saying take your Teton Team Bonded Hoodie out in a monsoon and expect to stay dry but we are saying, water resistant beats a bust. This is one toasty warm hoodie; it's a bonded fleece with a full zipper. You've got comfort, convenience, and a cool touch like a hidden zipper pocket for your phone or other mp3 player. Bring this one out for the colder temps and don't leave it on the back of a chair because someone's going to want to try it on and try to convince you about charity. We're not saying don't be a good guy, but if that's in your future, buy two Teton Team Hoodies today.

At this point, most of the reforms still exist more on paper than in practice. But just formally recognizing the importance of the issue - the need for involvement that's truly collaborative - is a step in the right direction, say educators.
"People in the [school] community have to see that communicating well with families is part of their professional job," says Joyce Epstein, director of the Center on School, Family, and Community Partnerships at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. "That's explicit now. If No Child Left Behind really were implemented as intended, it would really be quite exciting."
A number of states and districts are also trying out their own strategies.
In Arkansas, a new law requires all districts and schools to write plans for involving parents, and to designate a "parent facilitator" at each school. It encourages everything from cards with tips to help children succeed - included in local businesses' paychecks - to setting up local "parent information centers."
New York City is going even further, spending $43 million to hire a full-time parent coordinator for every school in the city. That means 1,200 coordinators, plus a support network.
"Before, we had 32 people working with parents. Now we have 1,300," says Jean Desravines, director of New York's Office of Parent and Community Engagement. He says the decision came after months of meetings with city parents revealed that most felt unwelcome and uninformed.
Here in Chicago, parents have had a greater voice than in any other urban district in the country. Reforms that year created a local school council for every school in the city, with authority to hire the principal and renew his contract, develop an annual school-improvement plan, and set the school's budget.
