July 2014
Whitnessing the growth of Portland punky psych-pop outfit, Talkative, over the years, has been an absolute pleasure. Each of their albums has a home in my music library and heart. Not to mention the dudes in the band are some of the finest gents among the Portland music community. I knew we'd be good buds from the first time I met guitarist/synth/vocalist Cody Berger in 2011, after my own band played a show at Kelly's Olympian, and I reluctantly let an intoxicated Cody, saying "hey man, I heard you like to smoke pot too, cool!" hop a ride back to the SE with me to shorten his walk home.
Talkative's latest stoney efforts, Hot Fruit Barbeque, takes their raucous high energy sounds to new levels. And it's not just upscaled production. The album feels more purposeful than their previus work, each song commanding you to yield and listen or dance (I prefer to wiggle). Lead single "Rudy Huckleberry" will be left lingering in your ear as you try to recreate Berger's catchy but mostly unintelligible vocal hooks for the remainder of the day. Equally as catcy, "Snow Jobs" and "Hava Nagila" showcase the impressively explosive capabilities of Casunn Taft's drumming. The boys explore slightly more worldly rhythms and tones alongside their distorted guitars on "Gentrifuckation" for an overall excelent, bouncy, party track.
Hot Fruit Barbeque easily falls at the top of my list of favorite albums in 2014. Listen here.

I'm starting to lean more towards the 12v shower pump and pre-heating water on the stove/BBQ. Seems like it might be the best interim solution until I can afford a Quinni or the all-in-one RV Direct unit mounted on the trailer. Just got t work out how much water she needs, as I'm going to have to carry it in with me, and refill every couple of days.
Now I'm off to Bunnings to look at the push-fit aluminium box section with the plastic joiners/corners. Thinking that might be the best way to make my own lightweight shower enclosure.

Thread: A question.
January 30th, 2007, 02:55 PM #1
A question.
Right. Is it just me who has this problem?
I have a very vague storyish idea thing that's been around for about 2 years now. Fine, that's not the problem. However, now when i pick up a new book, whether in a library or shop i want it to be MY story.
Now i seem incapable of really reading anything because i want it to be something else. MY something else.
Is it just me who has this problem and how do i end it?
Probably by actually writing the story. Lol
January 30th, 2007, 06:23 PM #2
It sounds like you're searching on the outside for something within. We all do that from time to time. Perhaps the answer is to start writing your story.
January 30th, 2007, 07:34 PM #3
I second that. Were it nearing November, I'd suggest you try NaNoWriMo. But really, write your story. It really does make the feeling go away.
January 31st, 2007, 11:59 AM #4
Thanks, both of you. i suppose i already knew that was the answer but just wanted someone else to tell me so.
January 31st, 2007, 01:45 PM #5
Actually, it's not a problem for me per sei, but it does happen. Usually I'll walk in a library and, even though I won't read them, I'll pick up a sci-fi or a fantasy novel and flip through the pages, stop on one, and read it a little. I just stop and think, "These could be my words, my picture..." and it usually motivates me, inspires me, or gives me material to work with. The only trouble is that, after that, I have to write it; the trouble being that I usually don't end up doing that. I wonder if anyone can help me with THAT problem. Unfortunately, the idea is that I have to solve it myself, so I don't expect an answer!
January 31st, 2007, 02:13 PM #6
Actually, I have the opposite problem.
"Damn! I wish I had thought of that."
Or worse:
"Oh no! That's my idea! And better than I could ever manage."
January 31st, 2007, 05:04 PM #7
I'd say that you're both developing an author's eye and getting the "itch." The author's eye is when you start noticing things specifically in story terms -- material that would work well in a story, ideas from casual encounters, playing with language in your head. This also effects your reading. You see more what the author is doing in constructing the story, which may often lead you to think about how you might take things in a different direction or use a different approach, even if you like the story you are reading. Your brain is thinking like an author's brain, if you like, and it's bugging you. Happens with movies, etc., too.
The "itch" comes from being inspired by what you're reading, good or bad. It is seeing the act of creation on the page, which sets your brain racing to do the same. I know when I really like a work because I'm energized and have the strong urge to go write. I'm connecting with the author's work and characterizations and jazzing from that on the possibilities of story-telling. This includes DS' oh I wish I'd thought of that sort of reaction and sometimes dissatisfaction with an author who you feel dropped the ball, giving you the urge to run with it instead.
These things are of course offset by the inner weasel, the cravenous spirit inside who tells you that you could never write anything worth anything to anybody, and the wall -- the prospect of having to sit down and write and write to produce a story, which even if you really enjoy the activity of writing, is a daunting prospect because we want to do well at it. Ignoring the inner weasel and focusing on small steps may help with these.
February 1st, 2007, 01:47 PM #8
Thanks KatG, I can certainly relate to the author's eye thing, something i hadn't even realised i was doing! So will I always do this now or will it come and go depending on how much writing i do?
And yes the inner weasel is a great big monster of mine, if i don't feed it will it go away?
February 1st, 2007, 05:36 PM #9
And yes the inner weasel is a great big monster of mine, if i don't feed it will it go away?
One of the books I'm reading now is Stephen King's "From a Buick 8" and he has an author note on it, because he wrote the first draft of the novel right before he was hit by a car and almost killed. He got the initial idea for the story when he stopped at a gas station, on his way from Florida to Maine. He went in the back to use the bathroom, and there was a steep slope nearby that lead down to a spring-swollen, rapidly moving stream. King moved a little closer to look at the water, slipped and fell, slid down the slope toward the stream and grabbed something to catch himself.
He considered what might have happened if he'd been swept away in the stream and his car full of belongings left sitting there at the gas station, no one knowing what had happened to him. And he made a story out of it. Everybody does this to some extent; it's part of how our brains work. But writers specifically look for it, they zero in on it and really try to use it. They have a very hard time turning it off, and they'll add material from different aspects of their life, reading or things people tell them. Mystery writers plot how to kill you, romance writers consider any location as a possible setting, and sffh writers look for things that are weird.
February 2nd, 2007, 11:04 AM #10
So i suppose in a way, storytelling is just extended daydreaming?
February 3rd, 2007, 03:41 PM #11
I don't know about that. A daydream is a visualization. In storytelling, you may be taking a visualization, then coming up with words to describe it in multi-sensory fashion and also inner viewpoints of it, so as to create a visualization for the reader. That's assuming you do a lot of visualization when you write, which not everybody does. It all gets rather complicated.

This article includes a one-page preview that quickly summarizes the key ideas and provides an overview of how the concepts work in practice along with suggestions for further reading. It was originally published in March-April 1995 and was republished in January 2007 as an HBR Classic.
Businesses hoping to survive over the long term will have to remake themselves into better competitors at least once along the way. These efforts have gone under many banners: total quality management, reengineering, rightsizing, restructuring, cultural change, and turnarounds, to name a few. In almost every case, the goal has been to cope with a new, more challenging market by changing the way business is conducted. A few of these endeavors have been very successful. A few have been utter failures. Most fall somewhere in between, with a distinct tilt toward the lower end of the scale. John P. Kotter is renowned for his work on leading organizational change. In 1995, when this article was first published, he had just completed a 10-year study of more than 100 companies that attempted such a transformation. Here he shares the results of his observations, outlining the eight largest errors that can doom these efforts and explaining the general lessons that encourage success. Unsuccessful transitions almost always founder during at least one of the following phases: generating a sense of urgency, establishing a powerful guiding coalition, developing a vision, communicating the vision clearly and often, removing obstacles, planning for and creating short-term wins, avoiding premature declarations of victory, and embedding changes in the corporate culture. Realizing that change usually takes a long time, says Kotter, can improve the chances of success.
learning objective:
To understand the eight stages a large-scale organizational change initiative must progress through and the pitfalls to avoid at each stage.
subjects covered:
Business conditions; Business process reengineering; Change management; Coalitions; Communication; Organizational change; Organizational culture; Organizational development; Rewards; Setting goals; Transformations; Vision

The Minister's eyes were like egg yolks, an aftereffect of some of the many illnesses, malaria especially, endemic in his country. There was also an irrefutable sadness in his eyes. He spoke in a slow and creaking voice, the voice of hope about to expire. Flame trees, coconut palms, and a ballpoint-blue Atlantic composed the background. None of it seemed beautiful, though. "In forty-five years I have never seen things so bad. We did not manage ourselves well after the British departed. But what we have now is something worse—the revenge of the poor, of the social failures, of the people least able to bring up children in a modern society." Then he referred to the recent coup in the West African country Sierra Leone. "The boys who took power in Sierra Leone come from houses like this." The Minister jabbed his finger at a corrugated metal shack teeming with children. "In three months these boys confiscated all the official Mercedes, Volvos, and BMWs and willfully wrecked them on the road." The Minister mentioned one of the coup's leaders, Solomon Anthony Joseph Musa, who shot the people who had paid for his schooling, "in order to erase the humiliation and mitigate the power his middle-class sponsors held over him."
Tyranny is nothing new in Sierra Leone or in the rest of West Africa. But it is now part and parcel of an increasing lawlessness that is far more significant than any coup, rebel incursion, or episodic experiment in democracy. Crime was what my friend—a top-ranking African official whose life would be threatened were I to identify him more precisely—really wanted to talk about. Crime is what makes West Africa a natural point of departure for my report on what the political character of our planet is likely to be in the twenty-first century.
The cities of West Africa at night are some of the unsafest places in the world. Streets are unlit; the police often lack gasoline for their vehicles; armed burglars, carjackers, and muggers proliferate. "The government in Sierra Leone has no writ after dark," says a foreign resident, shrugging. When I was in the capital, Freetown, last September, eight men armed with AK-47s broke into the house of an American man. They tied him up and stole everything of value. Forget Miami: direct flights between the United States and the Murtala Muhammed Airport, in neighboring Nigeria's largest city, Lagos, have been suspended by order of the U.S. Secretary of Transportation because of ineffective security at the terminal and its environs. A State Department report cited the airport for "extortion by law-enforcement and immigration officials." This is one of the few times that the U.S. government has embargoed a foreign airport for reasons that are linked purely to crime. In Abidjan, effectively the capital of the Cote d'Ivoire, or Ivory Coast, restaurants have stick- and gun-wielding guards who walk you the fifteen feet or so between your car and the entrance, giving you an eerie taste of what American cities might be like in the future. An Italian ambassador was killed by gunfire when robbers invaded an Abidjan restaurant. The family of the Nigerian ambassador was tied up and robbed at gunpoint in the ambassador's residence. After university students in the Ivory Coast caught bandits who had been plaguing their dorms, they executed them by hanging tires around their necks and setting the tires on fire. In one instance Ivorian policemen stood by and watched the "necklacings," afraid to intervene. Each time I went to the Abidjan bus terminal, groups of young men with restless, scanning eyes surrounded my taxi, putting their hands all over the windows, demanding "tips" for carrying my luggage even though I had only a rucksack. In cities in six West African countries I saw similar young men everywhere—hordes of them. They were like loose molecules in a very unstable social fluid, a fluid that was clearly on the verge of igniting.
"You see," my friend the Minister told me, "in the villages of Africa it is perfectly natural to feed at any table and lodge in any hut. But in the cities this communal existence no longer holds. You must pay for lodging and be invited for food. When young men find out that their relations cannot put them up, they become lost. They join other migrants and slip gradually into the criminal process."
"In the poor quarters of Arab North Africa," he continued, "there is much less crime, because Islam provides a social anchor: of education and indoctrination. Here in West Africa we have a lot of superficial Islam and superficial Christianity. Western religion is undermined by animist beliefs not suitable to a moral society, because they are based on irrational spirit power. Here spirits are used to wreak vengeance by one person against another, or one group against another." Many of the atrocities in the Liberian civil war have been tied to belief in juju spirits, and the BBC has reported, in its magazine Focus on Africa, that in the civil fighting in adjacent Sierra Leone, rebels were said to have "a young woman with them who would go to the front naked, always walking backwards and looking in a mirror to see where she was going. This made her invisible, so that she could cross to the army's positions and there bury charms . . . to improve the rebels' chances of success."
Finally my friend the Minister mentioned polygamy. Designed for a pastoral way of life, polygamy continues to thrive in sub-Saharan Africa even though it is increasingly uncommon in Arab North Africa. Most youths I met on the road in West Africa told me that they were from "extended" families, with a mother in one place and a father in another. Translated to an urban environment, loose family structures are largely responsible for the world's highest birth rates and the explosion of the HIV virus on the continent. Like the communalism and animism, they provide a weak shield against the corrosive social effects of life in cities. In those cities African culture is being redefined while desertification and deforestation—also tied to overpopulation—drive more and more African peasants out of the countryside.

Learn how to start an Alzheimer's Cafe
Sunday, February 24, 2013
DOVER — The Children's Museum of NH launched its Alzheimer's Café program in October of 2011 and soon began attracting the attention of organizations and individuals seeking to do something similar. People from as far away as Pennsylvania have visited the Museum's Alzheimer's Café to learn more about it, and now the Museum is hosting a program to help others get a café started in their community.
"We saw a need in the community and thought The Children's Museum of New Hampshire would be an ideal place for an Alzheimer's Café," explained Paula Rais, the Museum's Director of Community Engagement. "Intergenerational experiences are beneficial for all ages, and the people who attend the café respond very positively to our surroundings. Some enjoy the opportunity to be around vibrant youngsters, while others just enjoy the colorful, non-clinical setting. We have witnessed new friendships being formed and coping strategies being shared. We could not be more pleased with how the community has responded."
To register for or learn more about the Nuts & Bolts Workshop, please call the Children's Museum at 603-742-2002 or visit www.childrens-museum.org.

Dan Schulman, the CEO of Virgin Mobile USA, must develop a pricing strategy for a new wireless phone service targeted toward consumers in their teens and twenties, many of whom are believed to have poor credit quality and uneven usage patterns. Contrary to conventional industry wisdom, Schulman is convinced that he can build a profitable business based on this underrepresented target segment. The key is pricing. Schulman is currently debating three pricing options: 1) adopting a pricing structure that is roughly equivalent to the major carriers, 2) adopting a similar pricing structure, but with actual prices below the major carriers, or 3) coming up with a radically different pricing structure. With respect to the third option, Schulman is considering various alternatives, including a reliance on prepaid (as opposed to post-paid) plans and the total elimination of contracts. Includes color exhibits.
learning objective:
To examine the interplay between pricing, target market selection, and a firm's overall value proposition. Explores the psychology of pricing at the level of price points and at the level of pricing structure. Demonstrates the nonlinear impact of price on both demand and profitability. Also demonstrates the extent to which pricing structure (as opposed to price point per se) can affect the consumption experience.

BadKebab: BTRFS is superior in design - it is a significant step forward. Which is why it is able to support all the important ZFS features, AND MORE, otherwise it would not be a step forward, would it ? In that light ext4 conversion is an example of how that design makes it forward-looking and inclusive. I didn't say it was a feature, I explicitly pointed it out as a helpful side-effect due to superior BTRFS design.
By your logic, Solaris is a copy of all OS's that came before it because mainframes have always had the features offered by Solaris....
ZFS is amazing, BTRFS will be even better
People like you know next to nothing but attach themselves to a successful product/entity like ZFS and act as if you invented it. Its a means of projection to compensate for the lack of your brains in real life, and is quite rewarding, esp. on the internet where its easier for you to be evasive and keep shifting the argument between various meaningless points, by using misdirection and red herrings (calling ext4 conversion a feature, incapacity to understand why B+tree usage is so smooth, name calling ext4 as bad when ZFS can also result in corrupt data)

Fleetwood Mac Releases First New Music In A Decade
Wednesday, May 1, 2013
Out now is Fleetwood Mac's new Extended Play EP, featuring the first new music from the band in a decade. Three of the four tracks -- the Lindsey Buckingham-written, "Sad Angel," "It Takes Time" and "Miss Fantasy," were co-produced by Buckingham and studio veteran Mitchell Froom. The fourth track is a vintage Stevie Nicks song -- "Without You" -- which was produced by Buckingham and Nicks and is a remake of an early Buckingham Nicks track that was slotted for the duo's planned second album. The track was long forgotten by the pair until Nicks rediscovered the song via YouTube.
Rolling Stone quoted Lindsey Buckingham as saying, "We all felt that it would be great to go into the studio and record new material before embarking on this tour and the result has been remarkable -- our best group of songs in a long time. It's a work in progress but we're so enthused by what we've done that we thought we'd share some of it with our fans in the form of an EP now. . . We're performing two cuts, 'Sad Angel' and 'Without You' in the show and the response has been terrific."
When we last caught up with Buckingham, he told us that in regards to releasing his solo material, he's seriously considering bypassing record labels all together: "I'm probably almost at that point where I could sell it off the website and, y'know, not give away 80 percent of each album to a company and probably reach (laughs) close to the same number of people and make some money on it, y'know?"
Mick Fleetwood told us that being able to dip into their vault of unreleased material alongside working up new songs is a blessing for any band: "That's part of the advantage of having a broad-based deep catalogue that we have and being one of those bands that has got underneath that wire where within reason, we're not gonna go away in my lifetime. It would've already happened and it hasn't. So you're underneath that fence and you're on the other side in an area that's a privilege to be in."
Fleetwood Mac performs tonight (May 1st) at Tulsa, Oklahoma's BOK Center.

Hi, now that Im in my 40's I feel Ive had enough of blow up matresses on the ground. My last outing cought me out with wet bedding due to some torential rain. I want to be off the ground permanantley and have come accross 3 types of bedding.
My question to fellow campers is

Any other input / suggestions would be appreciated
III probably only buy 2 - one for me and one for the wife, the kids are feral and can use the airmnatresses until we buy a camper trailer.

Data Center Modernization Services is a consulting service that analyzes your data center or IT infrastructure, helping you plan, implement and transition to a more efficient infrastructure solution. Whether it's in your own facilities or in HP leveraged data centers, we create a simplified and more agile IT environment that can respond to changing market conditions. When you look at your data center, do you see hundreds of servers, using countless kilowatt-hours of power, costing your company thousands? If so, your center may need a makeover. The average utilization rate of a server is only about 15 percent. But you don't purchase a machine to only use 15 percent; you buy it to use 100 percent.
How many versions of software are you running? What are the licensing fees of these programs? If your data center is running on different platforms due to mergers or acquisitions, you need to increase cohesiveness. You must operate as one company and you want your systems to do the same.
Helping you find the "sweet spot"
HP Data Center Modernization Services analyzes IT infrastructures for efficiency of use and alignment with business goals. Analysis of both areas can result in substantial cost reduction and increased efficiency of operations for your enterprise. Data Center Modernization Services helps our hosting clients better align the goals of their IT department with those of the business. Through increased agility of the IT infrastructure, your IT department can support changes in business direction and strategy.

WEEKI WACHEE - A Weeki Wachee Springs mermaid was injured Thursday on the waters off Hernando Beach after she fell out of a pontoon boat and landed on the boat's propeller.
Samantha Maywell, of Brooksville, was injured in the leg by the propeller and the two other mermaids with her were not injured, according to John Athanason, public relations manager for the park.
Kevin Carroll, assistant fire chief with Hernando County Fire Rescue, said Maywell was on a pontoon boat out in the Gulf when she fell off the boat onto the spinning propeller.
"She had severe left leg damage from hitting the boat propeller," Carroll said, adding that those aboard the boat helped her back aboard and took her to shore. "She had a very critical injury and she was in critical condition, there's no doubt."
According to the incident report, Hernando County Fire Rescue received the emergency call at 4:32 p.m., and at 4:48 p.m. the pontoon boat carrying Maywell arrived at the Hernando Beach boat ramp, indicating they were about 15 minutes off-shore when the incident occurred.
Fire rescue treated Maywell at the boat ramp and transported her to Regional Medical Center Bayonet Point, Carroll said, and the incident will be investigated by either the Hernando County Sheriff's Office Marine Division or Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
Calls made to FWC officers Friday revealed they were not currently investigating Maywell's injury and were unaware of the situation.
"Hopefully, God willing, she's doing well," Carroll said. "Certainly our prayers go up to her and her family that she recovers from this."
Athanason said he has been in contact with Maywell's family regarding her condition.
"I've been trying to keep in contact with her mother as much as possible," Athanason said, adding that he was made aware of the situation Thursday night. "I know it's not life-threatening."
According to Maywell's Weeki Wachee Springs profile page, her personal motto is: "Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one reached in life, but by the obstacles which he has overcome."

Multiphysics Simulations of Tunneling Current Modulation using Ultra-Thin Membranes Micromachined on SOIB. Bercu, L. Montès, G. Bacles, J. Zimmermann, and P. Morfouli
Institute of Microelectronics, Electromagnetism and Photonics, Grenoble
In this paper, we study a novel type of NEMS - tunnel junctions mounted on thin membranes.
Mechanical stress applied to the junction induces changes in the height and length of the barrier, allowing the modulation of the tunnelling current.

All I am suggesting is to not assume it is the Intel video driver, it may be, but other issues can be at fault.

This is not Intel specific. You are all experiencing this bug:
You're using an OCZ core V2. They're notorious for "locking" up when writing small amounts of data. Use btrfs as your filesystem(in ssd-mode). That'll fix things.
Have you submitted a bug report on either Launchpad or on freedesktop.org's bugzilla.
It seems a bit harsh using an article to effectively bash Intel. Especially considering it's Ubuntu's choice what driver version is shipped. It would be interesting to see if the same behaviour existed for their new 2.7 driver
Oh yes and as others have mentioned are you absolutely sure that it's an Intel driver issue? If so how did you pin point the problem?
Isn´t having a Free Software video card driver just great?
I am so happy Nvidia provides decent,if closed-source, drivers. They actually WORK. That´s most important, I´d figure
OT: Welcome to Italy
Plz take in account that Berlusconi is an idiot and some of us are NOT like him
To quote Doomworld about crappy DooM WAD files:
"They should not have released."
I think the same goes for the intel xf86-video-intel development. I doubt the developers hadn't seen the regression. So why release? Unless a drivers is at least halfway decent one should not make a public release. Imagine the pain and horror you bring over the world, esp. when unexperienced user get in contact with that. We have seen that on KDE <4.2.x - but which was definitely declared as a non-user release - and people went crazy over it when it didn't work like KDE 3.5.x. But these drivers don't seem to have a mark "staging, experimental or dontuse" so I wonder why that code is put in the public.
I really hope that distributors of precompiled distributions will see the signs and step back to older releases which just workend. Rather kick some new chips (and have VESA for them, even if it sucks, too) than putting a broken driver to all users.
I mean, I don't have a single intel video card (chipset) here but it sounds the same like the issue with some VIA stuff. Delay when typing, short timeframe of inaccessibility of system when something bigger is going on, freezes,... so I can feel the horror.
What makes me wonder why intel drivers are that bad since intel is a big big player on the market with their hands directly on the hardware and compare to the VIA side with the small openchrome team (which just received specs for the chips). From that p.o.v. intel should have done better.

(CNN) — Republicans continued to put Hillary Clinton at the center of their inquest into last September's attack in Benghazi, claiming Sunday the former secretary of state wasn't assigned enough blame in an independent probe of the incident.
But in singling out the top Democratic presidential prospect for 2016, Republicans find themselves balancing their quest for answers with charges of being overly aggressive in a bid for political gain.
Speaking Sunday, the Republican lawmaker leading the charge in Congress to investigate the Benghazi attack said his goal was not to tarnish Clinton's presidential chances.
"Hillary Clinton's not a target. President Obama is not a target. The target is how did we fail three different ways," Rep. Darrell Issa, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, said on NBC's "Meet the Press."
His remarks came after week of renewed interest in the Benghazi saga, and fresh charges of politicization from Democrats. On Wednesday, Issa's oversight panel heard an account of the Benghazi siege from a former top diplomat in Libya, who described a harrowing night that resulted in the deaths of four Americans, including the U.S. ambassador to the country.
The hearing, which lasted five hours, drew loud protests from the White House and Congressional Democrats, who accused Republicans of rehashing a case that has already been investigated by an independent review board.
Witnesses in Wednesday's hearing, including the former Deputy Chief of Mission in Libya Gregory Hicks, questioned the legitimacy of that board's report on the Benghazi attack, suggesting it did not include accounts from key witnesses to the assault who were on the ground as it happened.
On Sunday, critics also questioned why Clinton herself wasn't assigned more blame in the report.
"Obviously she was the decision maker at the State Department," Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-New Hampshire, said on CBS "Face the Nation," adding she was "surprised" Clinton wasn't probed further.
The co-chair of the review board, former Ambassador Thomas Pickering, defended his work on CNN's "State of the Union," arguing his panel was charged specifically with investigating security decisions, which he said were not made at Clinton's level.
"She has already made clear the buck stopped with her," former Ambassador Thomas Pickering said. "But we were interested in where the decisions were made. And she did not make the security decisions."
Pickering's report, released late last year, found "systemic failures and leadership and management deficiencies" at the State Department in the lead-up to the attack in Benghazi, which left four Americans dead. As a result, four State Department officials were disciplined immediately after the report's release. One resigned, while three others were placed on administrative leave and relieved of their duties.
Those actions were deemed insufficient by some Republicans, including Sen. Rand Paul, who told Clinton during a hearing in January he would have "relieved you of your post" had he been president.
He made similar remarks on Friday, telling a crowd of Iowa Republicans that Clinton's actions were "inexcusable" and should "preclude her from holding higher office." Paul is openly considering a bid for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination.
His remarks in front of potential Iowa caucus-goers only fueled Democratic accusations Sunday that the Benghazi focus is a veiled bid to discredit Clinton.
"Unfortunately, this has been caught up in the 2016 presidential campaign-this effort to go after Hillary Clinton," Sen. Dick Durbin said on CBS' "Face the Nation." He called Republican scrutiny of Clinton a "witch hunt."
"When Hillary Clinton's name is mentioned 32 times in a hearing...a point of the hearing is to discredit the secretary of state who has very high popularity and may well be a candidate for president," Sen. Dianne Feinstein added on NBC's "Meet the Press."
On Sunday, Sen. John McCain also linked Clinton to a bungled administration response to the Benghazi attack, which he amounted to a "cover-up" of information designed to protect the White House.
His accusations were fueled a set of internal e-mails from September that were released this week, which showed top administration officials changing a set of talking points used to describe the Benghazi attack. The talking points were meant for members of Congress, and for U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice during appearances on Sunday talk shows.
McCain and other Republicans allege the changes to the talking points - which eliminated references to al Qaeda being involved in the attack, which came less than two months before the presidential election - were politically motivated, since President Barack Obama had campaigned using his administration's handling of national security issues.
Clinton herself isn't shown receiving or sending any of the e-mails herself. But McCain alleged it was impossible for her not to have been involved.
"I think that the secretary of state has played a role in this," the Arizona Republican said on ABC's "This Week."
"She had to have been in the loop some way," he continued. "But, we don't know for sure."

Midwest Living Review
Galo's Italian Grill is the newest member of the local Molina restaurant family, joining Olde Richmond Inn, 5th Street Coffee and Bagels, and Ainsley's Cafe. Named for chef Galo Molina (who is actually from Ecuador), Galo's makes a welcome addition to a restaurant scene that's mostly chain eateries and buffets. Located just off National Road East behind a strip mall, Galo's is hard to miss, with a huge taupe-color, columned exterior. Inside, the classy white-tablecloth decor is vaguely Tuscan with a warm, romantic vibe running throughout. The circular forum-style dining room is basically one big open space below a faux-fresco ceiling painted to resemble the sky. An ambitious menu details antipasti appetizers, salads, wood-fired pizzas, pastas, house specialties, chicken, seafood and meat. Most items are easily large enough to share between two people; the kitchen will split portions if requested. Galo's also offers housemade desserts, a well-chosen wine list with lots of Italian varietals, and some intriguing cocktails (strawberry limoncello martini, perhaps?). Warm focaccia bread with garlic olive oil dipping sauce is fresh, and the chopped salad ($7.95) is well garnished with pepperoncini, tomato and feta; but the pastas are what really wow. Pollo asparagus ($13.50) is so full of chicken, tomatoes, mushrooms and chopped asparagus, it's hard to even see the wheat linguine underneath, and the pasta Milano ($12.95) incorporates lots of chicken and mushrooms over linguine in a deliciously creamy red pepper sauce. Price points here are higher than at most other Richmond eateries, but with this much high-quality food, it's a fair value. And the warm decor makes a great date-night setting.

Berwick couple put on a big holiday display
Thursday, December 20, 2012
BERWICK, Maine — It's safe to assume the Bogdan's home on Hubbard Road is better decorated for the holidays than yours.
As Chuck explained, the family collects ornaments from a variety of different places. Apart from local retailers, the Bogdan's have items on display from places such as San Diego, Las Vegas, and Michigan, among others. "It doesn't matter where we are," Chuck said. "If we see something we like we'll buy it and bring it back."
Although the family first started back in 1997, at their home in Lebanon, Maine, their home was secluded in a mostly wooded area, making their decorations largely hidden from the public's view.
Their current residence on Hubbard Road is much more open to passing motorists, many of whom stop by during all hours of the night to mill around the home's brightly illuminated backyard.
And, their efforts have been awarded by the town. The Bogdan's kitchen is full of the Berwick holiday lighting contest's "Best of the Best" award. For much of the past decade, the family has taken home the top prize.
During a year in which the family was too busy to partake in their decorating efforts, friends and neighbors even stopped by to see if everything was all right.
"Times have certainly been tough," Chuck said. "If we can put smiles on faces I don't see why not."

It's the same translation map idea that is used for virtual memory.
And what about partitions? I suposse it just work inside every partition asigned sectors. So would be better to make bigger than needed partitions and don't make swap ones in SSDs.
It's the same translation map idea that is used for virtual memory.
Quoth wikipedia:
MLC NAND flash used to be rated at about 5–10k cycles (Samsung K9G8G08U0M) but is now typically 1k - 3k cycles
5k - so halve the above numbers. On the flipside, lager capacities help - so newer models will make up for it just by having more space to spread the writes over.
I'll have to counter that with Murphy's law, the steady state of any disk is full
Well, just read in wikipedia and with static wear leveling free or used space is not a problem: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wear_leveling#Types

Need an Extended Length Putter?
- The Extended Length (EL) Putter is designed to extend 3" past your hands.
- Stand in putter posture with your current putter. If your hands are positioned at the top of the grip, add 3 inches to the current length to determine your EL length. If you choke down on your putter and the grip extends 1 inch, add two inches to current length, if it extends 2 inches, add 1 inch to the length, etc.
- Make sure your EL Putter length does not come in contact with your body. That contact would violate the USGA's New Anchor Ban. (See diagram below).
This high MOI mallet design incorporates the tour proven patented weighting technology in a new HEAVY-WEIGHT category. The D1-H is face balanced and has a center shaft orientation. This putter features a cutting-edge design with a sound engineering purpose. The unique head design raises the center of gravity, which together with the elongated alignment line, encourages consistent sweet spot contact. The putter is constructed of Stainless Steel and has a CNC milled face and is offered in a Black PVD finish. Each HEAVY-WEIGHT uses a proprietary shaft with a 250 gram weight inserted in the butt end of the shaft; this creates the necessary weight to give the golfer more control of the stroke and also produces a balance point 75% higher than conventional putters that eliminates the wristy action in the stroke. Heavy Putter uses a newly developed Winn Mid-size grip with a V17 Super Soft compound with a cord base material which produces an extremely tacky but firm feel, preferred by better golfers.
The Heavy Putter D1-H is available in standard lengths from 32" - 36" (right hand only), and can be ordered as a custom putter in other lengths.

UPDATE: This game has been shutdown and is no longer available
Secret of the Solstice is a 3D Fantasy MMORPG. The game is set in the large fantasy kingdom of Xen. Secret of the Solstice has a large variety of playable classes, a unique graphic style and some interesting content. If you're looking for a new game to try, Secret of the Solstice is well worth checking out.
Publisher: Outspark
Playerbase: Medium
Graphics: Medium Quality
Type: MMORPG
EXP Rate: Medium
PvP: Arena / Event only
Filesize: 1640 MB
Pros: +Unique graphic style. +Plenty of playable classes and job promotions. +Helpful tutorial. +Great background music. +Good interface.
Cons: -Repetitive combat. -Text is blurry and hard to read. -Limited PvP options.
Secret of The Solstice Overview
Secret of the Solstice is a 3D (with 2D Sprites) Fantasy MMORPG by Outspark. Like most MMORPGs, the game has anime-inspired graphics, but the game's overall look is certainly unique. The game's graphics and gameplay were certainly inspired by similar titles like like Ragnarok Online and Angels Online, but Secret of the Solstice still has its own unique features as well. If you're looking for a new game to play, Secret of the Solstice is certainly worth checking out. Players start their adventure in the game's world as a classless Xenian and can advance to one of the game's four job advancements at level 16. The game's four first job advancements are:
Squire - Squires are the generic 'warrior' class in Secret of the Solstice. They have strong melee attacks and high defensive capabilities but have weaker skills than the other classes. Squires can become Knights at level 66, Warriors at level 96 and Warlords at level 131.
Apprentice - Apprentices are the generic offensive spell casting class in Secret of the Solstice. They can deal massive damage with their spells, but are vulnerable in melee combat as they have low armor and hit points. Apprentices can become Mages at level 66, Wizards at level 96 and ArcMages at level 131.
Neophyte - Neophytes are the generic 'Thief' class in Secret of the Solstice. They have powerful attacks but tend to have low hit points and defense. Neophytes, unlike Squires and Apprentices, have two job promotion trees they can choose. They can become melee oriented Thieves or ranged Archers. Each of the trees have their own respective job promotions.
Acolyte - Acolytes are the generic Priest/Paladin-like class in Secret of the Solstice. They have powerful healing and supportive magic, as well as decent melee skills. Like the Neophyte they also have two job promotion trees they can pursue. They can choose to become all-out 'healers', or opt to become more melee-oriented Holy Avengers.

Secret of The Solstice Review
By, Omer Altay
If you haven't heard of Secret of the Solstice before you're probably not the only one. Secret of the Solstice is another one of those 'under the radar' free MMORPGs that are surprisingly good. The game has an interesting art style, a good XP rate and enough variety to keep players hooked. Another small thing I like about the game is that it's published by Outspark. I'm a big fan of Outspark's website, probably because they've done a great job to date keeping their games updated and hackers away. Anyway, on with the review!
First Impressions
The absolute first thing that popped into my head after logging into Secret of the Solstice is 'Wow this looks far too much like Ragnarok Online to be a coincidence!' The game seriously looks almost identical to Ragnarok, with only a few minor things changed. There are actually quite a bit of free MMORPGs out there that drew their graphical inspiration from Ragnarok. Games like Water Margin Online and Tales of Pirates for example were definitely inspired by Ragnarok Online. I don't blame the game's developers for modeling their game after an incredibly successful one. In fact, I'm glad they did it, as Secret of the Solstice simply looks gorgeous. The game's environments and character models look great and the overall gameplay is incredibly fluid, which makes playing the game an incredibly enjoyable experience. One interesting thing that Secret of the Solstice did that I'd like to see other games do is have an NPC in the middle of town named 'Solstice Guide' that outlined the basics of the game. The NPC also provided free 'milk' to newbies which were simply HP potions. The milk was actually surprisingly helpful, as it's incredibly hard to earn enough money to purchase skill books and potions during the early parts of the game.
Core Gameplay
Unfortunately, the core gameplay in Secret of the Solstice is much like every other MMORPG. The game really doesn't do too much to try and innovate or revolutionize the genre, which can be looked at as both a good thing and a bad thing. If you've new to the MMORPG scene you probably prefer something simple, but if you've already played a dozen or so MMORPGs, you're probably in the market for something a bit more unique (like Atlantica Online or Runes of Magic). Even though Secret of the Solstice's core gameplay is generic, it's still a genuinely good game that's worth checking out. All players start their adventure in the game as classless 'Xenians' and must reach level 16 before they can choose their first 'job'. The game has four starting jobs and each one of those has at least three job promotions at later levels. I have a small complaint with the game's attribute system, as it simply feels too slow. Each new level rewards players with only a single 'stat point', and since the game has six attributes, it just doesn't feel right to get only one 'stat point'.
Fix THIS! NOW!
My single biggest complaint with Secret of the Solstice is the game's ridiculously blurry and hard to read font. Every time I need to read something on the game's screen I have to move myself real close to the monitor just to be able to make out the words on the screen. You'd imagine that something so obvious would have been addressed by now, but the problem has been around since the game's launch in late 2007. If you're one of those gamers that like reading through quest text, I feel sorry for your eyes, as they're going to be quite strained every time you log into Secret of the Solstice.
Last Minute Thoughts
Secret of the Solstice had a lot of small good and bad details that are worth mentioning. The game has a solid questing system that was rewarding. Unlike other MMORPGs that have quests that force you to play the 'fed ex' delivery guy (going back and forth between NPCs… Get it? Hah), Secret of the Solstice has a feature that automatically moves your character for you whenever a quest demands it. I'd like to see the game expand on this and allow players to automatically move their characters to any NPC in town, sort of like the 'path finding' feature in Zero Online and Conquer Online.
One aspect of Secret of the Solstice that I disliked quite a bit was the game's lack of PvP options. If you're looking for a game that's big on PvP, this is certainly not a game for you, as players can only participate in PvP during special 'PvP arena' events. The game's publisher has said on numerous occasions that more PvP elements are 'currently being developed', but as it stands the game has minimal PvP.
Final Verdict – Good
Although Secret of the Solstice isn't anything revolutionary the game is still genuinely fun. The game's graphics are incredible and the gameplay is extremely fluid. The game however has very limited PvP options and only a medium sized community. If you're looking for a new game to try though, and have already played all of the 'well known games', Secret of the Solstice is definitely worth trying.
