After Stormy Seas: 1. Casting Off
I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it--but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor.
--Oliver Wendell Holmes, The Autocrat of the Breakfast Table

Saelon had never journeyed so far herself, nor with so much baggage, but her menfolk were mortifying her already, and they had not even set forth. The rolled hides and sacks of down and wool they must carry to the Havens were awkward things, it was true—but surely it should not have taken Halpan and Partalan and Gaernath together half the morning to lash them and the two tight-jointed kists that held the herbs securely onto Maelchon's three sturdy workhorses.
Even more unaccountably, Dírmaen sat idly by on one of the great logs that had been brought up from the strand for seating at the harvest feast, the reins of the ready-saddled riding horses in hand. From his look of shortening patience, the Ranger appeared to be in accord with Veylin, for once.
They had appointed to meet the Dwarves at Maelchon's house, beside the river track, by mid-morning, and were now so late that the russet-bearded dwarf-lord and his younger nephew had ridden the rest of the way to the high dooryard of the cliff-set hall to see what had delayed them. "Come, Halpan," Veylin chastised the last Dúnadan of Srathen Brethil, scowling as the three disagreed in low hisses over how to load the gear and supplies onto her own dun packhorse, "we are losing good daylight!" Shifting in the saddle, he cast a reproachful gaze her way. "This is poor management, Lady."
Conscious that the keen eyes of Gwinnor were upon them—the raven-haired Elf seemed amused by the ineptness, though he was accompanying them to Mithlond—Saelon drew her ragged brown cloak more closely around her against the brisk breeze off the sea and answered as evenly as she could. "I have never traveled with so many beasts or goods. I had thought," she added, in a more private undertone, "that Partalan, at least, understood such things."
"Cannot we head out with the horses that are ready?" Veylin suggested, with the practicality of his kind. "Your beasts being so long-legged, Gaernath could surely catch us up with the last in an hour or two. If you fear he might go astray," he added, cocking a bushy, inquiring brow at the Elf, "perhaps Gwinnor would keep him company."
"Gladly!" the Noldo declared, courteous as ever, though Saelon thought there was a glimmer of mischief in his smile. Turning to the Ranger, he asked, "Will you set out with the Dwarves? I will follow with the Lady and Gaernath."
Dírmaen shook his head. "I would rather wait. It is too easy for mischance to separate companions." Looking over at Veylin, he said, "If you would start, Master, do not let us delay you further."
Veylin considered first one, then the other, rubbing the leather of his reins with a blunt thumb, before turning to her, his craggy face betraying nothing. "What is your wish, Lady?"
This was a knot as needless as the tangle Gaernath had made of harness an hour ago. "I wish," Saelon said tartly, "that I still had my old garron, if it is not fitting for me to ride astride. I do not like riding pillion." The dappled mountain pony had been staid and low enough that she could have sat doucely across his broad back, but she would never dare that on the tall, spirited horses of her brother's breeding.
Nor would she perch behind Dírmaen, her arm about his waist day-long. It was unwise, given the depth of his passion, only recently revealed to her; and cruel, to excite desire she would not return. Could not, given her misgivings about his motives and character. Having had her own will for more than a score of years, his censoriousness and jealousy had inspired distaste rather than regard, despite his many fine qualities.
Saelon almost wished she was brazen enough to ask Gwinnor if she might ride with him, for surely the sight of her embracing so exquisite a man would drive Dírmaen's absurd suspicions of Veylin from his head. Yet she mistrusted the Elf, with his fey, changeable moods . . . and he, too, was a rival of Veylin's, though for gems rather than her regard.
How had it come to this, that she should find herself vexed by the antipathies of Elves and Dwarves and Men? She did not want to take this journey, and all that made it bearable was the prospect of so many days of Veylin's company and conversation. Too seldom did she have the chance to see this most unlikely friend, and too often their meetings were marred by the hostility of others. Innocent, respectable conversation, as hopefully Dírmaen would see, while she sat modestly behind her young Edain cousin, who was as biddable as could be expected of a lad his age and charmed by both Dwarves and Elves.
Yet fretting on such things would not get them forwarder. "Halpan," she asked, not troubling to conceal her displeasure at such botchery from the one she was leaving in charge during her absence, "can you at least say how much longer you will all be at this? If it takes so long to load the beasts every day, Gaernath will not be getting much sleep."
Her red-headed cousin straightened up sharply, as if pricked in his pride, but Partalan lurched in his direction, catching an ill-balanced bag—and Gaernath in the side with his elbow. "Here, lad," the bearded swordsman growled, "is that the best job of lashing you can manage?"
Her not much older dark-haired cousin left off fussing over the straps on an off-side pack, awkward and abashed. "Ah . . . well," Halpan cast his strangely desperate gaze over the beast, its load, and the ground round about, where only a few items remained, "it should be but a little longer—"
"So you said when the sun was a span lower," Saelon pointed out pitilessly.
"Yes," he allowed, looking more and more like a guilty hound, "but there is still something missing—"
"Still? What?" He could not burden four beasts for a month's journey in an expeditious manner, yet he wished to serve as her steward in Srathen Brethil, when their scattered folk began to return next spring? Why had Dírmaen not taken the task in hand long before? To clearly show how much she had come to rely on him, or to annoy Veylin?
"Here she comes!" Muirne cried, in glad relief.
Saelon turned and stared in puzzlement at the usually shy young cot-wife, whose infant son lay at her breast, cradled in her knotted shawl, then followed her gaze along the shelf at the base of the pale cliff.
Her niece Rian, who she had been told was at Maelchon's, was slithering down the precarious track from the tower hill as if she cared naught for her neck, a bundle in her arms. She broke into a run when she reached the level, bare feet flying over the short turf, and came to a halt beside Saelon. "Finished!" she exclaimed in breathless triumph, green-touched grey eyes bright and perhaps a little anxious, holding out her burden to Saelon. "Forgive me, aunt, for delaying you, but I worked as quickly as I could!"
"On what?" Saelon's heart gave a sudden leap of hope, feeling naught but cloth in the bundle. Rian was a fine seamstress . . . .
"Look and see!"
Turning back the coarse but clean sacking, she found a swathe of fine blue-green woolen. "Where did you get this?" Saelon demanded, uncovering more—not simply fabric, but a dress, new and whole.
"Do you like the color?" Rian asked earnestly. "Halpan brought it back with him, along with the linen for the underdress, which is beneath. It will go so well with your jewel!"
For the second time in a week, Saelon was speechless; yes, there was an underdress, of fine silver-grey linen. She had been so dreading going among the Elves in a hand-me-down, turned gown.
Veylin stood in his stirrups, craning his neck to see over her shoulder. "Aye, so it will," he pronounced with satisfaction, settling back into the saddle. "You have some taste, it seems," he allowed, gazing on Halpan with a riffle of approval over deeper dissatisfaction.
Halpan laughed. "I knew nothing of your jewel, I swear. Yet I thought I could not go wrong with a color so like the sea."
"It is beautiful." Saelon looked from Rian to Halpan and tsked. "But you ought not to have!" With her new appreciation of the value of cloth, she thought of all the other things they lacked.
"We cannot have our Lady look meanly," Halpan maintained.
"I did not have time," Rian lamented, " to do the broidery upon it I would like."
She embraced her niece and gave her a hearty kiss on the cheek. "It is already too fine for me; but when I come home, you may finish it at your leisure. And you—" Saelon eyed Partalan narrowly. "I suppose your harping purchased the cloth?"
The short, crook-nosed Dunlending, who had swiftly bound all that remained but her pack onto the dun, shrugged carelessly and held the bag out to her. "It brought a little silver . . . which Halpan won of me at dice."
"Come here, you knave," Saelon commanded her Dúnedain kinsman, holding out the arm that did not cradle the timely gift. "You ought to have gotten yourself boots, instead . . . but thank you." She embraced and kissed him as well. "Take as good care of them all while I am gone."
"I will do my best, Saelon," he promised, then broke into a scapegrace grin. "I would rather face the raugs again, than the rough side of your tongue."
Veylin gave a cough that sounded suspiciously like stifled derision.
Saelon pushed Halpan away and took her bag from Partalan. "So, is all ready now?" As she untied it and carefully slipped the wrapped dress in—she could pack it properly when they stopped for the night—Dírmaen rose with a gusty sigh, and handed Coll's reins to Gaernath.
Rian, at least, had manners enough to drop an apologetic curtsy to the Dwarves. "Please pardon the delay, Masters," she asked. "I have found it hard to steal time to work on the Lady's gift, between the storm and the harvest feast." Indeed, her fair hands were still marked where the straw had cut her, as they worked feverishly to save their crop.
"Hmm, well. In the future," Veylin advised her, beard quirking with a smile though his tone was stern, "get me word of your stratagems. If you leave your allies out of your counsels, they are apt to complicate matters."
Though she ducked her head, Rian smiled in reply. "I will remember that, Master. Fare well, on your journey."
Veylin bowed courteously. "And you keep well, Dúnadaneth, until we meet again."
Dírmaen and Gaernath had mounted; Partalan had secured her bag on the dun. Finean was passing the lead rein for the first horse in the pack train to the Ranger, while Artan stood by with their spears. "Fare well, Saelon," Halpan wished her, interlacing his fingers and offering his hands as a step, before boosting her up onto Coll's haunch as Gaernath caught and steadied her. "We will have the grain threshed and in store by the time you return."
"I should hope so!" She found a tolerable spot and arranged her cloak and skirts. "Rian, be sure to get as many hazelnuts as you can, and sloes."
"And meadowsweet; yes, aunt."
Veylin had started down the track, Thyrð close behind him. Gwinnor shouldered his pack and cased bow, and strode lightly to the edge of the cliff-shelf, giving a piercing whistle. Below, on the machair, his grey mare lifted her proud head and whinnied in reply, then came running to meet him.
"Safe journey, Lady," Artan said, as he handed Gaernath his spear. "And a swift one."
"The sooner I am home again," Saelon assured Muirne's fair-haired young husband, "the better I shall like it."
Muirne waved as they set off, and Unagh beside her. Saelon only managed a short sweep of her arm before she had to brace herself against Gaernath's slim back as the horse picked its way down the steep, rutted path, Dírmaen following after.
They were on their way to Lindon, at last.
A shame, that they had lost any of the morning, for it was a fair day for traveling: the fresh, clear air had brought out all the richness of autumn's early hues and tempered the warmth of the sun. Veylin and his nephew were nearly to the little river on their steady-trotting ponies, one hood ruddy as the dying bracken, the other green as the well-washed turf where Gwinnor, also clad in the colors of moor and hill, leapt onto his mount. Beyond, amid the black cattle grazing on the golden stubble of their fields, Canand lifted his drover's staff high in farewell.
Saelon barely had time to return the gesture before they came down onto the greensward, and Gaernath pushed Coll into a canter, setting off in pursuit of the Dwarves. She had only just snugged more securely to the lad's back when a furious drumming of hooves came from behind. Tinnu, head contemptuously high, black mane and tail streaming, charged past them, clearly unwilling to follow.
"Hold tight!" Gaernath warned, and gave the brown gelding his head.
It was not much of a race, the Elvish horse being of such quality and only bearing a single rider, but Saelon laughed for the thrill of it. "Ho!" Veylin cried with alarmed displeasure as they pounded past the dwarf-ponies on the narrow track, setting the stolid beasts to dancing. A few furlongs brought them to the path up the higher bank, where Maelchon's house stood. Unchecked, Gwinnor's mare continued along the river track, while Gaernath turned Coll neatly and put him up the way between the hazel-brakes.
In Srathen Brethil, that fair glen east of the mountains, they had built their homes of timber, but there were few trees here between the mountains and the sea, and one of the conditions of their tenancy was that they should take no more than a single tree each year. For a blessing, they did not need wood for firing, peat being so plenteous; yet it would have taken years' worth of timber to raise even a small house—and Maelchon's family was large. So the burly husbandman had struck a bargain with the Dwarves, who had built him a fine house of stone.
Little surprise, therefore, to find the rest of Veylin's company awaiting their arrival with jacks in their hands, their ponies—at least a dozen—hitched to the may bushes where Fransag spread her linens. The smaller children were among them, petting the shaggy beasts under the watchful eye of Fram. Fransag was passing around with a stoup, while Tearlag, their serving woman, carried a basket of bannocks, refreshing their guests after the ride from their halls, some three leagues to the north. Maelchon sat on the bench by his door, conversing with Vitnir and Bersi.
The green-hooded coppersmith looked around at the sound of Coll's hooves. "Greetings, Lady," he hailed, as Gaernath brought their mount to a halt. "Where is Veylin, and your goods?"
"At your service, Master Bersi," Saelon replied, with particular courtesy. "They are behind us, but please, accept my apologies for our tardiness. My kin had a parting gift for me, which was not completed until a very little while ago. We have come, as you see, as quickly as we could."
"I do not think," Fransag said, glancing sideways at Skani with a knowing grin on her broad face, "they minded an excuse for a bite and a draught." Vitnir's prentice, whose jack she had just refilled, looked rather conscious. He had been perhaps a bit overfond of drink at the harvest feast, led off by his fellow prentices when he could not be kept from singing.
"No, indeed," Bersi allowed, smiling. "Your ale is good, Mistress."
"So, do you like your present, Lady?" Fransag wanted to know.
Had everyone known of it save her? "Very much. A timely gift indeed."
"A pity we cannot see you in it, before you go." The goodwife heaved a sigh, then looked around at hoofbeats from the east. "How did he go astray?" she wondered, as Gwinnor brought his mare cantering back along the high flat.
Boyish shouts of admiration turned Saelon's head in time to see Hanadan come tearing up the bank, with Guaire and Maon on his heels; all three looked as if they had thrust their way through the hazel-brakes. Halpan's young nephew did not hesitate to approach Tinnu as the mare came to a reluctant, prancing halt, tossing her head with impatience, though Maelchon's two boys hung back, still in awe of the Elf and his horse. "How do you stay on, without a saddle, when she goes so fast?" Hanadan demanded.
Gwinnor laughed; truly, he made sitting such a spirited beast appear effortless. "Long practice, child, and her good will."
"Will you have a stirrup cup, sir?" Maelchon asked, rising and coming forward. Like his sons, he was shy of the High Elf, even when mostly shorn of jewels. Saelon herself sometimes found it hard not to call Gwinnor lord. He denied the title, but his manner contradicted him.
"Thank you, yes."
The husbandman carried the jack himself. "Once again," he said, deferentially offering the drink, "my thanks for your aid in securing our roof during the storm."
The Elf waved the gratitude off gracefully before accepting the cup. "So the Falathrim have always done in such blasts, throwing their nets over all."
Vitnir drained his ale and sniffed, gazing with disdain on the weighted ropes that had been thrown and interwoven over the heather thatch as the tempest winds rose. "Slates would have been better."
"On the whole, I would agree with you," Gwinnor told the ironmaster. "Yet during the fiercest storms, even slates tear free, and become terrible missiles. The only sure roof in such weather, Vitnir, is one such as yours."
"What would you know of our roofs?" the Dwarf asked, not too discourteously.
Once more, the Noldo's melodious laugh rang out. "Did I not live in Nargothrond with Felagund?"
"Did you?" Bersi asked curiously.
"Aye, and visited Khazad-dûm many times in the days of its glory, when the West Gate stood ever open to us in Eregion."
Veylin's second prentice, the blond Oski, returned his jack with a bow to Fransag and headed for the ponies . . . which proved to be good timing, for just then Veylin rode up, with Dírmaen and the packhorses on the heels of Thyrð's pony.
"There you are, Master," Maelchon greeted him heartily. "A stirrup cup, before you depart?"
If he had meant to clear the foreboding look of displeasure from Veylin's face, it was for naught. "No," the dwarf-lord declared curtly, "we have tarried too long as it is. Come," he urged his fellows, "let us mount and be on our way!"
Maelchon and his wife came over as the Dwarves readied for the road. "Fare you well, Lady," the black-bearded husbandman told her. "May Lindon be pleased with our scot and the agreement."
Gwinnor, who had negotiated it on behalf of Lindon's lord, shook his head with a reassuring smile. "You think Círdan will have thought better of it in half a year?"
"How can we know?" Saelon asked. "None of us know him—and little of Elves," she reminded him. "Your moods are changeable enough."
"My mood, but not my intent, I hope!" the Noldo protested. "Have I not been well-disposed to you and your folk?"
Courteous, always; a help during the great storm, there was no denying; but she could not forget how unsympathetic he had been to their desire to remain near the sea, until Veylin found a way to plant doubt in his cool heart. Nothing she could say had moved him.
Veylin, who had drawn up between them, gave a most expressive snort. "After some persuasion," he rumbled. "Do you intend to ride at that pace for the whole trip? If so, I will see you in Mithlond in a sennight or so."
The Elf's smile flashed in the sun, like the gems he was not wearing. "You did not think I would ride you down, surely, Veylin. Tinnu must have a run, if she is to pace alongside of your good beasts all the day long."
"She need not."
Saelon held her breath, looking from Veylin, decked in no more than russet wool and bright copper, astride his stubby pony, to the tall, raven-haired Noldo on his high horse. She had not dared to refuse Gwinnor's offer to accompany them to the Havens . . . but she had never been there, nor any of her folk. Veylin's trade had taken him there often, and he knew the way well.
"Come, Veylin," Gwinnor chided, almost plaintively, "do not take that tone. I would enjoy your company, and that of the Lady—" giving a little bow in her direction "—on my journey home, which would otherwise be tedious, though shorter. Must I beg your pardon for my exuberance, especially after the morning's frustration?"
Veylin chuffed, regarding him through narrowed eyes. "Then see that we enjoy yours! Go on," he waved his hand, "lead off. Will you follow the mountains, or the sea?"

After Stormy Seas: author's notes
This is the fourth story in the Dûnhebaid ("Westshores") cycle, which is set on the north coast of the Ered Luin during the mid-29th century of the Third Age of Middle-earth. As explained in the author's notes for Rock and Hawk, this cycle takes its sense of place from the West Highland coast of Scotland and draws heavily on the archaeology and traditional lifeways of that region, as Tolkien drew on the languages and lifeways of the English West Midlands. For the fullest appreciation of the characters and events, I recommend that you read the preceding stories, Rock and Hawk (T.A. 2847), Fair Folk and Foul (T.A. 2848), and Of Like Passion (T.A. 2849). From this point onwards, I will restrict definitions in the author's notes to new, especially pertinent, or particularly obscure words; if you find an arcane or oddly used word that is not clarified in the notes at the end of the chapter, please go to the Dûnhebaid Dictionary.
* † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † * † *
Hazel-brakes: hazel thickets.
Jack: a leather tankard.
Stirrup cup: "one for the road"; a farewell drink, taken on horseback.
Falathrim: the Elves of the Falas, the western shore of Beleriand in the First Age; presumably Gwinnor is referring to those who followed Círdan to Lindon, or their descendants.
"the weighted ropes that had been thrown and interwoven over the heather thatch": in the Outer Hebrides, where strong gales are common, criss-crossed ropes or old nets, weighted with large stones, were used to keep the roof-thatch from blowing off the blackhouses.
Scot: a payment or local tax; what you don't pay if you get away "scot-free." Saelon and her people are at some difficulty about what to call their payment to Lindon, since they don't want to confuse them with the tribute they owe their traditional overlord, the Chieftain of the Dúnedain.
Sennight: seven nights; i.e., a week.

Had K&L co-owner and main wine buyer Clyde Beffa Jr. not read an article about the gentlemanly hobby of wine collecting in the February 1971 issue of Playboy, he might still be weighing the merits of Holsteins versus Jerseys instead of Château Margaux or Haut-Bailly. Beffa owned a dairy in Tracy, California, from 1967-1973, leaving the the business to co-found K&L Liquors, as it was known back then, in 1976. Clyde started traveling to Europe in 1982 and over the years, he has worked hard to build K&L into one of the nation's go-to sources for the world's diverse wines, developing relationships with winemakers and châteaux owners the world over. Clyde's passion is surely Bordeaux, especially the fabulous wines from Pauillac and St-Julien (like Pichon-Lalande and Léoville-Barton). When he's not drinking France's legendary reds, you'll likely find Clyde indulging in Sauvignon Blanc. A fan of Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé and white Bordeaux, he'll also tuck into a bottle of Kiwi Sauv Blanc if there's no corkscrew around. These days you'll likely find Clyde extolling the virtues of underrated Bordeaux vintages like 1991, 1997, 1999, 2004 and 2006, or playing with his German Shepherd Sadie. Or you may see him in his vegetable garden and, once in a great while, on the golf course.

How to Select
How to Shop for Bathroom Faucets
Bathroom faucets account for a large portion of water usage in your home. A leaky faucet can become a major heating energy and water waster, allowing the unused water along with the energy used to heat it to go down the drain. Leakage losses caused by defective bathroom faucets account for between five and ten percent of household water consumption, which is why choosing high-quality faucets for your bathroom is especially important.
Selecting the right bathroom faucets can be quite a bewildering task. The choice is limitless not only in terms of styles, colors, textures and finishes, but also in terms of modes of operation, the number of holes required and the mounting method.
Based on the mode of operation, bathroom faucets can be hand-operated or electronic. The latter usually feature sensors that release water without touch and allow you to wash hands without dealing with handles that may be dirty. Sensor-triggered faucets are also safe from excess dripping and therefore can save approximately 75% of the water as compared to standard faucet fixtures. These devices typically use solar power or batteries to operate.
Bathroom faucets may also require a different number of holes, from one for a monobloc to four-hole bath/shower faucets (hot, cold, spout, shower). They can be mounted on the basin or bath, wall-hung, floor-mounted or worktop-mounted. Your choice will be probably defined by whether you prefer an asymmetrical look with a tap that is placed to the right or left, or a more classic style with several holed faucets or two taps placed in the center.
The design of the faucet also depends on your bathroom. Victorian faucets in oil rubbed bronze or brass with their pleasing curves would look great in a period bathroom, while a modern one would be the right fit for almost any styles in chrome or brushed nickel. An understated contemporary faucet that can emphasize a clean-lined ambience would do the trick for a chic, minimalist-style bathroom.
As far as prices go, saving on bathroom faucets is not the best idea. Inexpensive faucets may mix cold and hot water unevenly and end up costing you more in the long run. Invest in high-quality bathroom faucets that will provide years of high performance and allow you to be in complete control of water pressure and temperature. Despite being the most frequently used fixture in the bath, the better quality faucets will age well and serve you substantially longer, making you forget about constant drips.

Starting with next major release, all KDE branding and KDE versionning will be modified.
Then, Trinity can finally live as an independant project from both KDE3 and KDE4, even if it has started from a fork. It does not intend to become the "KDE3 upstream" or a "KDE4 replacement": it is an alternative desktop environment.

Hello all you lady riders,
my first bike was 1200 XL custom sportster, only put 3000 miles on that which I love and just bought my 2009 softail dulex love love love it, now i just need a man to go with it. not to sure what men are looking for these days out there on the road. Do all men really need that barbie doll??? Ride safe ladies....
I started out on a 2007 Yamaha V-Star 650 Silverado - I bought it, took the safety course & got my license! I rode it for 2 years then traded up to a Yamaha V-Star 950 Tourer. This bike has better curve response and is fuel injected. It gets to 110 very fast & if I didn't have too many speeding tickets I'd stay there! ;)
I do miss my 650 a little - you hade to muscle her a bit and it was fun - but she stalled some and even though we tried to adjust the clutch a lot - it just didn't fix that entirely. Sooooo I got the 950 - never stalled her once. Dropped her after hittin' gravel - but I picked her up myself!!
Sooo watch out neohio!!
Hello..I just bought a Honda Rebel 250,as I just started riding...I find the Rebel to be very comfortable and easy to handle for myself as I"m only 5ft tall.I did take a riding course in Kelowna with the safety council and highly suggest that new riders take it..

Latest update : 2013-01-02
A rape case in America unfolds on the internet. An online campaign saves a bear from being put to sleep. And the most pirated movies of 2012.
USA: rape case unfolds on the Internet
The most talked about scandals often erupt in quiet seemingly uneventful little towns… residents of Steubenville in Ohio can testify to this. Two football players from the 'Big Red' High school football team have been accused of raping a 16 year old girl at a party.
The teenage girl was drunk and can't remember much from that night, but other students at the party posted videos to YouTube and tweeted about her deteriorating intoxicated state. One post read "song of the night is definitely Rape Me by Nirvana"… Other party goers even posted a photo on Instagram showing three male students carrying off the unconscious girl…
Her parents handed over all this evidence to the police, but as three days had passed since the party it was too late to gather credible forensic evidence of rape. One disgusted blogger posted the photos and potentially incriminating tweets online, accusing the police and town officials or trying to stifle the story to protect the Big Red's star players.
And so the once calm little town of Steubenville is split in two: with some residents supporting the two players and others demanding they be brought to justice, calling for a fuller enquiry. They have taken the campaign to Twitter, condemning the high school football team, some even describing the players as dangerous.
And now hacktivist group Anonymous has got involved… the group of anonymous cyber activists launched operation "OpRedRoll", set up a hashtag under the same name on Twitter and went on to attack the Big Red football team's official website. The group wants the players concerned to issue a public apology to the girl.
Meatball the bear saved by online campaign
This 250 kg black bear became a celebrity in California back in March … countless residents have posted videos and photos of him online, wandering through the streets of Glendale, cooling down in private swimming pools in the Los Angeles suburb, and eating what he could find in bins, which is how he got his nickname "Meatball".
And although many Californians warmed to the bear, others felt he was a danger to the public. But the people of Glendale were not going to allow the authorities to put their new mascot to sleep, and joined one local in her online campaign to raise awareness and save Meatball's life … she had set up a Twitter account for Meatball, taking on his online persona … the account now has over 28,000 followers.
And so Sarah Aujero decided to raise money to give the bear a home and started producing and selling Meatball paraphernalia. She even capitalized on the festive season and made Christmas tree ornaments featuring her favourite bear…
And the fundraising was a great success, Meatball's fans donated over 120,000 dollars, enough to pay for his new home … Sarah Aujero has been posting photos of it on Twitter, he will soon be going to live near to San Diego at a wild animal sanctuary. He will live in a 6 hectare enclosure, a cozy new home he will share with another male and three females…
The most pirated movies of 2012
According to a study published on specialist site « Torrent Freak » the most pirated movie of 2012 was "Project X" with over 8,72 million illegal downloads. Next comes the latest Mission Impossible film, "Ghost protocol" starring Tom Cruise which was downloaded 8,5 million times, and then taking home bronze the last movie in the Batman saga "The Dark Knight rises" which was pirated by 8,23 million web users.
Geometric retro movie posters
Ale Giorgini gives his own distinct twist to well-known movie posters… the artist's Facebook page features colourful, minimalist and geometric versions of these classic posters … from The Blues Brothers to the Goonies, as well as back to the Future and Star Wars, the Italian artist gives them a veritable new lease of life.
Video of the day
This video features four Italian mums keen to show their children it's time to leave the nest. Carla, Ana Flora, Gisella and Benedetta have started their own group called the Smammas, and this is their first track in which they tell their little treasures it's time to get a job, cut the apron strings and became independent…

Nice! I hope they will make native 64 bit ports, not 32 bit multilib crap.
Phoronix: Valve Writes About Their Linux Client Plans
Finally some non-Phoronix exclusive information about Steam/Source Engine on Linux ;) Valve Software has begun to write about their Steam Linux client initiatives on their public blog...
Nice! I hope they will make native 64 bit ports, not 32 bit multilib crap.
Valve to purchase Ubuntu?
I kid, but seriously. While likely to anger many, the distro lock-in seems like a decent strategy, as it answers the initial doubts over "all the distros are different so it will break" from naysayers. I guess that means they can also run hand-in-hand with the major update rollouts. Will Steam update itself internally (like in Windows), or will it go through Update Manager like Firefox and Chromium? Seems exciting to see how it goes, even if I don't play a single game.
Even if Steam is a little buggy, that's not too bad. It has always crashed on my Windows systems if I run the games long enough, and those are rock-solid builds with good parts.
I am no real fan from the idea to support U 12.04 first. Basically because the binaries are incompatible with Debian as the libc6 is newer in U. Not even wheezy/sid has got that new libc6. I would like to hear when they want to switch to debian. Of couse i would help em with kanotix which is based on Debian as well. even for free or for a few games. I also have got gfxdetect in the pipeline which is very cool. You can switch gfx cards and the drivers will switch automatically. Cool for testing on different hardware (you can usually switch a gfx card within a few seconds to minutes - depending on the size and power cables). Ok, i could write that for U as well, but did not yet.
It's not like they'll be locking you into Ubuntu with extra code. They just aren't applying the extra effort required to make it work everywhere - yet.
Brilliant news, I'm pretty stoked to hear this. I'll be supporting them!
Michael, you should tell your buddy Gabe that distrolock is stupid that's not supporting Linux that's supporting Ubuntu. Nextly any half assed distro will make it work and handle what needs to be done with links,data,permissions,etc... just give out the binaries for what is needed and most distros will get it up and running without anyhelp and take the brunt of the support help as well.. That being said release a Ubuntu package and watch how fast it gets put on Arch.
Ahh, the expected rudeness of the elitists. Pity, but I'm glad people at Valve know what they're doing, coming from this community to begin with.
Anyway, supporting a single linux distro absolutely makes sense to begin with. Other distros will just repackage it to work for them. Over time they can fix any problems that come up.

Here are some important things to know about your Health Coach Call:
This Planner uses Activity Points as a way to help you stay motivated and focused on your activity goals. Points are assigned to each activity in the Planner. You'll earn more points when you increase the duration of the activity.
For example, when you bicycle for 15 minutes at a moderate pace (12 to 14 mph), you earn 120 Activity Points. To earn the same number of Activity Points while cycling at a very easy pace (less than 10 mph), you would need to bike for 30 minutes.
If you are currently inactive or get very little activity during the week, a good goal to work toward is 500 Activity Points each week. This is equal to 30 minutes of moderate–intensity aerobic exercise on 5 days a week.
If you are moderately or highly active (more than 150 minutes of moderate-intensity activity each week), you may want to aim for up to 1,000 Activity Points each week. This is equivalent to 1 hour of activity on 5 days a week.
At 500 Activity Points per week: Once you consistently reach this level (ie, 150 minutes of moderate–intensity aerobic activity per week), you may gain substantial health benefits. These benefits include lower risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and depression.
At 1,000 Activity Points per week: When you consistently reach this level (ie, 300 minutes of moderate–intensity aerobic activity per week), you may gain even more health benefits. These benefits include a decreased risk of colon and breast cancer and an even lower risk of heart disease and diabetes.

A simple and exciting game with great graphics, fantastic music and nice sound effects. Everything you need to do: Get the hearts out of the wall (with the moving rock layers) before they seep away. Bring the hearts to the buckets. Make sure that the hearts do not fall out of the bucket, or you will drown your love. Use the magnet to pull the hearts to where you want to collect them. Watch out for the monster, it will eat your hearts. Collect the special droplets in order to get extra points. Enjoy the fun!

Portable Evaporative Air Cooler 19 19
The remote is a plus ! A great little apparatus to help with your AC bills! The remote gives you the pleasure of not only the on/off feature (from your easy chair!) but also various speeds, air swings and a timer to use if desired. No, it's not an air conditioner but it certainly helps to remove humidity and water cool the air in a room until the outside temps become such that you absolutely have to turn on your central air which saves money in the long run.. June 18, 2013
Evaporative Air Cooler. Hooray! This summer has been one of the warmest ever in Alaska. It has been close to 100 degrees several times in the past couple of weeks and there are no air conditioners or even fans in the stores; they are SOLD OUT. I ordered this evaporative air cooler and it arrived in just a few days. It has saved our lives - or at least our sanity! We opened the box, read the easy instructions and started using it in our bedroom right away. It is attractive, simple to operate and it works! My husband just mentioned to me this morning that he doesn't know what we would have done this summer without it. Our climate here is very dry; I've talked to some who say these products don't work so well in more humid areas, but for us: love, love, love!! June 21, 2013
Next best thing to an airconditioner I bought this for my son to make his hot and stuffy office more comfortable. He loves it!! Much more effective than a fan alone and can be moved from room to room. July 13, 2013
Life saver I purchased this for my mother who is after a long winter is suffering from COPD- she loves the fact that there is moisture in it because it doesn't dry out her airways while she sleeps. I am getting another today for her sister. I liked it because she could lift it empty and roll it to where she needed it once it was full. July 4, 2014

Great product, My only concern with it was the weight. I wish it was just a little lighter. I bought this vacuum to replace my older, much heavier vacuum. I have had 4 lower back surgeries and that is why I needed a smaller, lighter vacuum. It's suction is wonderful and it is so easy to empty. For someone that has no back problems, this product is perfect! However, if you do have back problems, still a little heavy, but well worth the cost and ease of use.
I had a Kirby vacuum that died. I'd always hated it because it was so heavy to lug around and it was a pain to switch over so I could use the attachments. The first time I used this vacuum, I couldn't believe the amount of dirt that was in the cannister. It is also very lightweight, and tools are on board. Even if this vacuum only lasts a year, I'd probably buy another one instead of getting a pricier one. It was also easy to assemble and it's very easy to empty.
This vac is so much better than the full size I bought which crapped out on me recently. It says it's refurbished but it looks brand new. The power is good and it's light. I was happy that I got the blue vac even though online I could only order the yellow one. I would definitely recommend and the price is great.
The product is okay, the suction is not as strong as a more expensive unit. You get what you pay for, and the price on this is right if you want to save money. It is easy to assemble. I would say it works fine if you want a second vacuum for the basement or the second floor of your home.
I'm very happy with the performance of this vacuum. It is lightweight, but does a very good job of cleaning carpets. Additionally the added tools come in handy for corners etc.
Great Vacuum! Great Brand, easy to clean, easy to find parts.
Great little vaccuum for the price. No problem putting together and good suction.
Merry Christmas, I can't believe how fast I received this item, Great job, Thank you, Rick
Purchased this for our business office. Needed some assembly, but nothing difficult. Works as I would expect. Very light. Easy to clean the collection tube as well. Nice purchase.
First the positives: This vacuum is excellent on carpet! It sucked up dirt I didn't even know was there! Very easy to empty. Easy to put together. I would put up with the noise, if I only needed it for carpet, but I also have bare wood floors. Now the negatives: It's very loud. It doesn't work on bare wood floors, it blows the dust and dirt all over the floor instead of sucking it up. Perhaps my vacuum is defective, I will be contacting Overstock & asking for a replacement. I'm giving it a good review for how well it works on carpet.

Operating Community Pools
Each summer, community pools offer our families an endless source of recreation and a respite from the season's heat and humidity. The various county agencies that regulate the operation of community pools work to ensure our summer fun takes place in a facility that is clean, safe and accessible to all.
Annual Requirements
The operation of community pools requires several annual inspections per the county ordinance for water recreation facilities. Pool owners, management companies, boards and managers are responsible to be familiar with the code and have the required health inspection, pool operators, electrical and fire permits to ensure the safety and health of staff and swimmers.
All pools require an annual electrical inspection. All metallic parts of a pool structure must be bonded as required by the electrical code. The annual electrical inspection can be completed by a third-party electrician or a county inspector.
- If using a county inspector, provide sufficient time for scheduling before opening day. The associated fee is as published in the current fee schedule.
- If using a third-party electrical contractor, he or she must complete an Electrical Inspection Form. Submission instructions are included on the form.
Helpful permitting and inspection links:
New community pools are required to be accessible under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). ADA requirements are met through provisions of the Virginia building code. See Accessibility Fundamentals to learn more about basic accessibility requirements for the accessible route and buildings on property.
Existing pools must also be accessible through specific requirements from the Department of Justice (DOJ) which enforces the ADA. Learn more on making existing pools accessible or call the ADA help line at 1-800-514-0301, TTY 1-800-514-0383. DOJ also offers frequently asked questions.
Facility Renovations
Building permits are required for major renovations and alterations to a community pool and its associated buildings. The building department, Health Department and Zoning are reviewing agencies that are part of the permit application process. To learn more, follow the links below, contact the Permit Application Center at 703-222-0801, TTY 711, or email us.

Scholarships and Financial Aid
Studying abroad can be affordable! McCombs undergraduate students participating on a BBA exchange program can continue to use their financial aid and existing scholarships toward their summer or semester abroad. In addition, numerous study abroad scholarships are available to help fund other study abroad-related costs such as your airfare, visa, passport, and international living expenses. It is never too early to start thinking about how to finance study abroad!
Students are encouraged to start researching their funding options early on as some scholarships require students to apply a semester or a year before departing overseas. Familiarizing oneself with the scholarship requirements and deadlines is an important step in preparing a successful application for scholarship consideration.
Every UT student studying abroad is eligible to apply for the International Education Fee Scholarship (IEFS) which is funded through UT student fees. Additionally, study abroad scholarships are available for other various locations and programs. We suggest you apply for as many scholarships as possible. Most scholarships are not comprehensive (less than $5000). It will take funding from multiple sources to achieve your goal. The Global A$$IST Scholarship Database references a listing of both UT and non-UT administered study abroad scholarships. However, it is not all-inclusive, so it is recommended to review all of the links provided to learn about local and national scholarship opportunities available to students.
Financial aid is available for study abroad programs approved through the Study Abroad Office and BBA International Programs office at The University of Texas at Austin. Interested students seeking financial aid for their program should complete the FAFSA for the appropriate academic period. To assist in the timely receipt of your financial aid and to ensure full consideration for all aid for which you qualify, you must apply by the Priority Date. If you miss the priority date, complete the FAFSA no later than three months prior to your departure date.
The BBA International Programs office will send the Office of Student Financial Services (OSFS) the estimated cost for your study abroad program. OSFS will revise your financial aid awards based on these costs and send you a Financial Aid Notification. Additional grant funding is not available from the OSFS office for study abroad. Study abroad students are offered additional loans — student, parent, or private — as eligibility permits. Visit the UT Study Abroad Office Funding Web site for additional information.
Study Abroad Counseling and Financial Aid Counseling must be complete before any financial aid will be released. Important items to keep in mind as you prepare to go abroad:
