A Call To "Kill All Proprietary Drivers For Good"
Next week at the 6th annual Linux Foundation Collaboration Summit in San Francisco, two Qualcomm Atheros engineers will be speaking about their Linux device driver development experiences and will go as far as calling for all proprietary drivers to be killed for good.

Back in January I wrote about how open-source compilers are quickly maturing for Intel Sandy Bridge CPUs and offering early support for Intel Ivy Bridge and Intel Haswell processors.

The people here are GREAT...no problems there. Unfortunately, that's pretty much the only good thing any more. Oh, and that folks can bring their dogs in to work...but most folks are much too busy to do so any more.
Salaries are so-so, not great, especially considering the long hours that are really needed to get our jobs done. Nice bennies package, though. Stock has basically been horizontal for several years, so, unless something changes drastically in the market, there's not much opportunity for earnings beyond salary and bonus (although the ESPP is decent).
Division reorganizations every year or so are an incredible waste of time and energy...seems like a low cost-benefit ratio, and a lot of wasted time. Very Dilbert.
Reviews are now rather rigid here: 20% of people get an "A", 70% get a "C", and 10% get an "F"...even if your whole group is stellar, or even if they are awful, 20% of them will get a great bonus and pay increase, and 10% will get neither. Guess the thing to do is make sure you join an under-performing group, then you'll have an easy time getting an "A". Seems like this could be handled with a little more finesse.
Most folks I know are just biding their time, waiting to escape from what was once a great company to work for. We really miss Carol Bartz!
Quit with the stupid re-org's, and quit drinking the Jack Welch Kool-Aid...we create software, we do not make lightbulbs...you cannot manage us like a manufacturing company and expect to be successful. Or, as many believe, are you really just ripening us for a takeover, so you can get your nice fat buyouts?

|Milan Lucic picks between his teams as Seahawks and Patriots meet in Super Bowl
|01.19.15 at 1:35 pm ET
WILMINGTON – While the rest of the world calls it the Super Bowl, Milan Lucic calls the upcoming Seahawks-Patriots match something else.
"My West Coast team against my East Coast team," the Bruins' left wing said with a smile Monday.
Lucic, a native of Vancouver, grew up rooting for the Seahawks but has become a Patriots fan since coming to Boston. Lucic says his allegiance to the Pats, which grew as he nursed an ankle injury in the 2009-10 season, will win out when he watches Super Bowl XLIX.
"Since '09 when I had that high ankle sprain, I've kind of converted into a Patriots fan," he said. "I've got to stick with my team now and keep cheering for the Pats."
Lucic, the Bruins' resident sportscaster/statistician, watched both the NFC and AFC title games Sunday, the first of which resulted in a comeback/collapse by the Seahawks and Packers, respectively, when the Seahawks, with just one timeout remaining, scored a touchdown to bring them within five points, recovered an onside kick on a botched blocking assignment, took the lead on a touchdown and two-point conversion and, after the Packers forced overtime with a field goal, won on a 35-yard touchdown pass.
Lucic thought the game was over when Russell Wilson threw his fourth interception of the game with 5:04 left and the Seahawks trailing by 12.
"I even congratulated some of my cousins from Milwaukee who are huge Green Bay fans for the win," he said.
But then the Seahawks made their push and the Packers went to the bathroom in their pants. If the way that game ended reminded you of the Leafs blowing a three-goal lead in the final 10:42 of Game 7 of the first round against the B's back in 2013, you aren't alone.
"Obviously it brings back memories of the Game 7 against Toronto that we had," Lucic said. "You kind of know the feeling that [the Seahawks are] feeling today and how excited they are to pull something like that off. I think looking back, the run that we went on having a comeback like that, because you're so high and it seems like nothing can go wrong when you're able to come back from something like that. I'm pretty sure that the Seahawks are feeling that right now. I think it's going to be a real, real fun Super Bowl to watch."
Between the Patriots' six Super Bowl appearances since 2002, the Red Sox' three World Series titles since 2004, the Celtics' two recent NBA Finals appearances, the Revolution's MLS Cup appearance last season and the Bruins' Cup Finals appearances in 2011 and 2013, Boston fans are used to seeing title games and Boston athletes are used to playing in them.
Lucic says the Pats going back to the Super Bowl provides motivation for the B's to follow suit in their league.
"You know the feeling of being there and you know the feeling of winning and winning it all," Lucic said. "You see the Patriots make it back to the Super Bowl again, it definitely gives you a little bit of a boost, just because you know that feeling and you want to do whatever you can to re-live that feeling."
|Sources: Bruins to host Canadiens in 2016 Winter Classic at Gillette Stadium
|01.19.15 at 12:21 pm ET
The Bruins will host the Canadiens in the 2016 Winter Classic at Gillette Stadium, WEEI.com has learned from league sources.
The Jan. 1 meeting between the two clubs, which has long been speculated, will be the second Winter Classic the Bruins have hosted. The B's defeated the Flyers in overtime at the 2010 Winter Classic at Fenway Park.
The Canadiens, meanwhile, have never participated in the Winter Classic and will become just the second Canadian team to compete in the annual outdoor game. The Maple Leafs beat the Red Wings in a shootout in the 2014 game at Michigan Stadium.
The Habs aren't complete strangers to outdoor games, however, as they did play in the Heritage Classic in 2003 against the Oilers in Edmonton and in 2011 against the Flames in Calgary.
It is unknown how preparations for the event will affect the Patriots, as Jan. 1 typically falls right around Week 17 of the NFL season.
After TSN's Bob McKenzie reported in December that the Bruins were the favorites to host the game, Red Sox COO Sam Kennedy said that the Red Sox hoped to see the game return to Fenway Park, but acknowledged that Gillette's seating capacity of 68,756 might make it difficult for the Sox and Fenway (37,400 capacity) to win the bid.
The NHL has yet to make an official announcement, but Bruins defenseman Dougie Hamilton said Monday that he would love to play in a Winter Classic soon.
"I think it would be awesome," Hamilton said. "It's something that you kind of follow every year. In [recent] years I watched the HBO show in juniors and kind of pictured what the NHL was like. Then watching the games, it's obviously special with the different jerseys and the venue and the crowd and rivalries and everything; it's something you'd really want to be a part of.
"I think when [speculation] came out last year and we kind of thought it was going to be this year, I think it was kind of disappointing that it wasn't us. Hopefully we get it and have that chance. It [would be] something to really forward to next year."

|Bruins prepare for Stars, Avalanche
|01.19.15 at 10:56 am ET
WILMINGTON — The Bruins had perfect attendance as they practiced Monday in anticipation of a two-game road trip that will send them into the All-Star break.
The B's will play Tuesday in Dallas and Wednesday in Colorado. By the looks of Monday's practice, Daniel Paille will remain on Patrice Bergeron's line in Tuesday's game as Brad Marchand serves the final game of his two-game ban for slew-footing Derick Brassard last week.
The lines in practice were as follows:
Marchand (suspended)/Paille-Bergeron-Smith
All defensemen and both goaltenders were present.
|David Pastrnak's first year burned off as his line comes down to earth
|01.17.15 at 10:59 pm ET
Forget the fact that the Bruins lost; did you notice that David Krejci's line with David Pastrnak and Milan Lucic didn't even score on Saturday?
Given all of the attention that's been placed on Pastrnak prior to the Bruins deciding to keep him and the success that the trio has had, the goose-egg from Boston's trio actually is somewhat notable, really only because it's the first time the line hasn't been very good since being united.
Pastrnak, who has now officially accrued one season of service time in the eyes of the NHL and NHLPA (Saturday was 10th NHL game this season, which means this season is officially the first of his three-year entry level contract) and his linemates came down earth against the Blue Jackets, overpassing and losing the possession battle in Boston's first regulation loss in 10 games.
"A lot of passing, a lot of missed passes," Lucic said. "Maybe trying to do too much and didn't play that north-south type of game that gave us success when we were put together originally.
"We have to know night-in, night-out as a line that in order to be successful and get results and contribute to the team, that there's a certain way that we need to play. That's a straight-ahead game and using our speed and obviously using our skill, but when we're moving straight ahead and using all those things, that's when we're going to have success."
The line nearly scored in the first period when David Krejci threw a puck on net from the top of the right circle that bounced off Pastrnak's skates in front with half the net open. Pastrnak whiffed on his shot attempt as the puck glided to Blue Jackets netminder Curtis McElhinney. That stood as the line's best chance, though Pastrnak did draw a penalty in the final minute of the period when he was tripped by Scott Hartnell.
But that was the extent of the good for the line offensively. Though Lucic tied for the team lead with five shots on goal, the Czech Davids combined for zero. Saturday was Pastrnak's first game without a shot on goal since his NHL debut on Nov. 24.
Since coming up, Pastrnak has been a standout player. He's found instant chemistry with Krejci, whose vision and creativity could make him a 30-goal scorer in future seasons. Yet there will be speed bumps along the way, such as when Pastrnak took a drop pass from Krejci entering the zone in the first period and, rather than shooting or finding Krejci again, forced a n0-look pass across the ice to Lucic that would have earned him an intentional grounding penalty in the NFL.
"That line didn't do much for us tonight; nobody did as a matter of fact," Julien said. "We need David to use his speed on the outside; we need Krech to make sure to use his speed on the outside and find him. If you're going to be cute and try and overpass, you're not going to get the results. That's not how we've had success in the past. I don't think that's how we're going to get success in the future."
One telling takeaway that should bode well for this line's future: In eight periods together, the Lucic-Krejci-Pastrnak trio has yet to get scored on. They have four goals for and none against.
|5 things we learned as Blue Jackets snap Bruins' win streak
|01.17.15 at 9:37 pm ET
The Bruins' season-best win streak ended at five games Saturday as the Blue Jackets broke a 1-1 tie with 3:03 and added an empty netter to secure a 3-1 victory at TD Garden.
Entering Saturday, the Bruins had not lost in regulation in nine games, with the Blue Jackets having handed them their most recent regulation loss on Dec. 27.
The B's will play the Stars in Dallas on Tuesday and the Avalanche in Colorado on Wednesday before breaking for the All-Star Break.
Here are four more things we learned Saturday:
With Brad Marchand serving the first game of a two-game suspension, Daniel Paille skated in his place on the left wing of Patrice Bergeron's line with Reilly Smith.
Paille, who skated on Bergeron's line with Milan Lucic for a few games recently, did not look out of place in his return to the top six. The veteran winger had a game-best plus-15 Corsi over the first two period.
The demotion of Paille to the Bergeron meant that Jordan Caron re-entered the lineup to play in Paille's usual spot alongside Gregory Campbell and Craig Cunningham. Late in the third period, Claude Julien flipped Paille and Campbell.
Speaking of suspensions, for the first time ever, that could be in question with Carl Soderberg. The Boston center caught Matt Calvert with a shoulder to the head in the second period that, though uncalled on the ice, could be reviewed by the Department of Player Safety.
Coming off his second shutout of the season Thursday, Rask had allowed only a Ryan Johansen power play goal into the third period Saturday. The Bruins caught some bad luck when Milan Lucic's attempt to intercept a Brandon Dubninsky pass got to Cam Atkinson, resulting in a shot and rebound that Calvert would bury.
Rask had to deal with quite the scramble in front late in the second period, but the B's were able to survive thanks in large part to Jared Boll shooting the puck over the net with Rask trying to recover and multiple bodies diving in front.
In addition to the penalty kill allowing Johansen's goal in the first period, Boston struggled on the power play.
The B's went 0-for-2 on the night on the man advantage, with the first unit struggling to enter and stay in the zone following a Nick Foligno penalty for hooking. The Bruins likely spent well less than half that power play in the offensive zone.
On the subject of penalties, the Bruins caught some tough breaks on calls. Dougie Hamilton was called on a ticky-tack hook in the first period, while Chris Kelly was the only player to receive a penalty during a second-period play in which Calvert held his stick and Kelly took a shot at Foligno.
When Chris Kelly sent a pass out front that went off Loui Eriksson's stick and then to Carl Soderberg on Soderberg's first-period goal, it stood as Kelly's first assist in three games, but if you go back a month, you'll see that Kelly's been rather productive the whole time.
The assist gave Kelly 12 points in his last 16 games, gibing him .75 points per game since Dec. 16.
|Brad Marchand fesses up to slew-foot, says suspension could have been longer
|01.17.15 at 11:43 am ET
Speaking to the media Saturday for the first time since slew-footing Rangers forward Derick Brassard, Brad Marchand fessed up to what he called a "dangerous" infraction and said he considers himself fortunate to have not received a bigger suspension than the two-game ban he received.
"It could be worse," Marchand said. "It could be three or four, so I've got to be happy that it's not."
Marchand has been outspoken against slew-footing in the past. Though he was fined during the 2011-12 season for doing it, he had some harsh words for Hurricanes winger Jeff Skinner during the 2013 season after Skinner slew-footed Patrice Bergeron.
So why, then, would Marchand then kick a player's right foot out and pull him down to the ice in textbook slew-foot fashion? In doing so, Marchand contradicted his past words, but said Saturday it wasn't entirely intentional.
"Going into the play, it wasn't what I was trying to do," he said. "I was just trying to make a hard hit. I was trying to throw him backwards, but I didn't intend to kick his feet out. Things happen. It's a quick game. Plays in hockey are going to happen that are questionable, and you've got to live with it."
Marchand said he did not feel his reputation or past played a factor in what is now his third career suspension. He called his reputation "a grave I've dug for myself," but said that he had made efforts in recent seasons to eliminate dirty plays from his game.
"Maybe it played into it a little bit, but I have been trying to play within the rules and change my game," he said. "Again, I play a hard game and I'm going to do things that are questionable at times. I've got to live it. The way that they discipline me, I've got to live with that."
Marchand will miss Saturday's game against the Blue Jackets and Tuesday's game in Dallas.
|Brad Marchand suspended two games for slew-footing Derick Brassard
|01.16.15 at 5:26 pm ET
Brad Marchand was suspended two games for slew-footing Derick Brassard during Thursday night's game against the Rangers.
Marchand will miss Saturday's game against the Blue Jackets and Tuesday's game in Dallas before being eligible to return against the Avalanche on Wednesday in Boston's final game before the All-Star break.
For the video explanation of the suspension, click here.
"Marchand both kicks out Brassard's skates and drives him backward to the ice with force," the video explained. "What makes this play even more dangerous is its proximity to the boards."
In anticipation of the suspension, the Bruins skated left wing Daniel Paille on Patrice Bergeron's line with Marchand and Reilly Smith. With Marchand suspended, the Bruins can move Paille up and play Jordan Caron on the fourth line in Paille's usual spot.
This is the third suspension of Marchand's career and second punishment for slew-footing. He was fined $2,500 in the 2011-12 season for a slew-foot on then- Penguins defenseman Matt Niskanen. Marchand was suspended for elbowing R.J. Umberger during the 2010-11 season and got a five-game ban for a low-bridge hit on Sami Salo the next season.

Coolest Overwintering Temps
This sort of falls along the lines of Mike's Changing Seasons...
Wondering the different temperatures in which everyone overwinters their hoyas?
I changed the heating on my enclosed porch this year and so far it's staying between 56-60 degrees which is a little cooler than last year. Hoping it doesn't get any cooler and wondering how well the hoyas there will cope.
Kelly I think the best guidelines would be the temperature tolerance table that David Liddle had compiled, SRQ has this up on their site.
My plant collection falls between intermediate to warm with a few hot growers. Generally the low for warm growers is best not to fall below 65F but intermediate growers are fine with the temps you mentioned. Can you separate the warm growers and move them to another spot? I do know some orchid growers who have used seedling heat mats to keep the root zone of warm growers at the desired temperature, this way they can keep them in the same grow space as the cool/intermediate growers.
Thanks, Mike! I printed it out the list and highlighted what I have! Ended up turning on the old heat as well, as life has been too busy to figure out anything else!
Cena, I, too, would love to know what temps drop down to where you are!
I accidentally left a pot of Hoya lacanosa cuttings outside for two days/nights when the night temperatures were just barley above freezing. The potting mix was pretty much dry and this is probably why I don't have a pot of mush but still I am very surprised that the cuttings survived.
Just thought I would share because this is not at all what I would have expected to happen to this species under those harsh conditions.
Interesting to see your guys concerning about cold temp!!!
We do not have snow, the climate is not cold at São Paulo, and we never loose plants due to cold temps, it is a little bit different at south of Brazil, where is colder than São Paulo, but we never move plants due to climate changes!!!!! THe summer is coming and temperatures get really high, we feel very bad, the sun is very hot, we are always sweting no matter how many showers we take during the hot days! But I think this is the perfect weather for hoyas!
I've had two bad freezes. There were three nights in January (08) that the chicken water froze a skim when it dropped to 29*. There are a lot of variables to temperature range how plants will handle them.
Then there is the fact I can't change this if I wanted to, without lot'sa ladder work (I'm not allowed on ladders).
We're getting a cold front tomorrow night and our lows are forecasted to be between 39ð to 43ð degrees for about 3 nights in a row. My Pubicalyx and Carnosa varieties have fared very well in these temps outside last year ...are there other hoyas than can take these temps like say...Serpens, Bella, Polyneura, Kerrii? Or are these too cold for them? I will bring them inside just to be on the safe side but was just curious if there are hoyas other than Carnosas and Pubicalyx's that can take upper 30's to 40's w/out any damage? Thanks!
My serpens I leave outside until it freezes, and then it only comes in for the freeze. Survived all last winter this way, and rewarded me in the spring with blooms for the first time.
So far this year, we've had quite a few nights in the high 30s low 40s, and the polyneura and bella have responded by adding lots of new growth since it cooled off. Also have my fungii outside with these temps as well. No damage so far.
But I want to add we don't stay at these temps, we go from a few nights at the low temps, then a few nights into the 50s or even 60s and so on.
That's interesting about serpens. I'm usually more concerned about moving warmth-loving plants away from the winter window ledge zone of doom, but maybe I should be thinking about moving serpens and its buddies to that spot. Granted, they'll still be only a few feet away from the space heater but they'd be a little cooler than the rest of the Hoyas.
I love that you guys are discussing what plants can handle temperatures outside your house and I'm thinking about what plants can handle temperatures inside my house. ^_^
Mitzicos, I don't envy you your summer. My legs got so cold they nearly snapped right off on my walk to work this morning, but I turn into such a surly slug in hot weather.
Thanks rennfl...that's very interesting and very good info. I think its great you're able to leave them outside until there's a freeze...I might just leave serpens and polyneura outside(but in my entryway) close to a wall, maybe it will trigger something to get it to bloom in Spring, even though its small I think its mature enough to bloom?
We are only suppose to be upper 30's for two nights and low 40's for one night...then it starts to creep back up to mid 50's...and our day time temps are expected to be sunny and in the upper 60's and 70's for the next week.
Please lmk if you have other hoyas that you keep outside in these temps...this is great info!
GG, I think what temps hoyas can handle inside and out is a great subject too and we can learn so much from each other experiences...can't find these type of great info in a book :o)
Thanks again!
puglvr - I'm up in the FL. panhandle, so we get a little colder than you through the winter. Although I'm on the coast, so it moderates the temps a little bit.
The other plants I left out for those colder days so far were my DS-70, which did get some damage (but still is blooming) and the obscura. The obsucua's older growth survived fine, but the two new leaves suffered cold damage. So they are coming in for tonight, and will stay inside now.
The other ones I mentioned before will only come in for a freeze, and then go right back out the next morning, as soon as it gets above freezing.
But as you mentioned, since the days warm up, it's not quite the same as northern growers, where the days don't warm up.
That's it, the other Hoyas I have are all inside already.
Pug, I totally agree. Every day I'm picking up scraps of information and sticking them behind my ear for the day when they'll be useful. Then, I find I have all these completely unearned instincts available to me when I'm puttering about. It's kind of like being a Reverend Mother from Dune: I have all these lives and experiences in my head besides my own meager supply. ^_~
I think when I get home I'm going to do some rearranging and shift variegated bella, longifolia, fungii, lacunosa, polyuneura, obovata, and pauciflora onto the window ledge.
publicalyx, bella, engleriana, serpens, globulosa, and all the carnosas are already in cool spots.
I think going forward, I'm going to prioritize cool loving Hoyas even more. They're my buddies.
Thanks Renn! I'm thinking of leaving my Kerrii outside under some palm trees...I think they should be able to handle mid 30's, no frost is predicted. This one hasn't bloomed yet and might help it to bloom in Spring?
GG, I hear you! I need to do a much better job compiling all these great information so when I need it I can find it,lol...I spend more time researching something I remember reading months ago :o)
I know about remembering info. I actually (am embarrassed to admit) have an excel spreadsheet detailing each plant I have. Details like when/where I got it, various synonyms, recommended growing conditions - things like that. And then I have a comment section where I will enter stuff like - survived 40F etc. Or 50F ok, 40F not. So next winter, I won't have to do the research all over again.
I started doing this when my orchid collection got to the point where I couldn't remember all of them, let alone what conditions they liked.
Don't be embarrassed, Renn! I keep several journals - one for plants acquired, one for weather,
and one for seed-starting and harvest (at the end of the season). The more notes the better!
As for Winter temps in my house - I keep my thermostat set at 64ðF, although I wouldn't mind it lower.
If the temps get much about 70ðF, I start to feel uncomfortable. 78ðF is right out.
At night, the temps drop into the 50ðF's in the Hoya room, and probably a bit cooler near the windows.
I also use a ceiling fan to keep the air moving (as Mike suggested in one of these Threads).
Humidity is always fairly low in the house, and even moreso when I've got a woodfire going.
I initially started my records system just b/c I was afraid of ordering the same plant twice, but it's become lovely, fat, and complex, and I'd be lost without it.
I totally hear you about Garden Web, though, Pug. A few months back I got fed up with banging my head against the wall searching for vaguely remembered threads that now appeared never to have existed. So, I started up an additional system for saving those links. It's neurotic and time-consuming, but I'm soooo relieved when it takes me 30s to find coffee as a pesticide or who here likes Al's Gritty Mix.

How about a plot where the peopel featured as heroes, 1 don't get killed. and 2 others in the story have true honor rather than wearing cowardice as a badge of honor, and calling that "honor"!
It depends! His first book in this so-called series, was excellent, and skillfully written. His second book looks like he's gone soft in the head in his old age, or something. It's a piece of crap!
Yes. As the last recording was good, so is this one in performance.
Absolutely not! I wish I'd never even thought about, let alone downloaded this trash! Disgusting! Disgusting! Disgusting!
Yes! If there are anymore crapstorms from this author, I would seriously consider no longer stocking his books.
"Book and performance far exceed the movie!"
The dramatization using multiple voices for different persons in the story, was a thrilling change from the dull single narrators. The action was great, the writer has much depth and feeling in his book.
One of the most memorable moments, one of my personal favorites, is a tossup between the revenge on Solotso and the cop and the excecution of the other dons.
The narrators were great, their accents perfectly authentic, and read with true feeling, and most excellent delivery!
The Italian
Definitely a worthy purchase, and addition to any lover of fiction.

Volunteering » South Africa
Volunteering in South Africa is essential to closing the gap between the rich and the poor.

They've already more or less admitted that they have absolutely no control with these lists, and that any agency, for any reason, without any actual evidence can add someone to the watch lists.
Let's think this through for a minute... So you would rather that the list be made up of persons with known terrorism group allegiances, and that any and all supporting information also be cataloged in the same place so that the list is audit-ready to outline exactly who is a terrorist, why, and how we know that? Yeah fucking right. The list itself would be a roadmap for how the US finds and tracks terrorists. You're just going to have to unwad your panties on this one, you don't get to decide who the defense department targets since you are completely unqualified to do so and frankly, don't know shit about mitigating the risk of terrorism.
Apparently, the people in charge are also completely unqualified. By your logic, we should simply sit back until they've fingered everyone as a potential terrorist. Then there won't be anyone left to complain.

Friends and family have told me I'm warm, genuine, quick, loyal, and down to earth. I'm happiest sharing a deep conversation with a close friend, whether out walking in nature, sharing a good meal or just hanging out. I like to express myself creatively (I take a weekly improv class in SF and sing and create jewelry for fun). I'm a huge music fan (alternative to world music), love a good movie or tv show, enjoy travelling/exploring new places, seeing plays, reading, art exhibits, and more. I spend my work days coaching, consulting and teaching people to be more self aware and more effective relating to others. I think of myself as kind of a business therapist/coach/healer. I'm the kind of person that will encourage you to be your real and true self. I'll ask you about your day and listen closely. You are a man who is kind, communicative, playful, open minded and spontaneous, interested in a long term, committed relationship. There's much more to say, and I look forward to chatting with you.

MLA favours local man for heading newly set up Rayalaseema University
University has teething problems like land acquisition and starting innovative courses
State Council of Higher Education understood to have shortlisted names for V-C post
KURNOOL: Hectic lobbying is on for the postof Vice-Chancellor for the newly set up Rayalaseema University here.
While a dozen senior professors and academicians approached the government and the State Council of Higher Education with bio-datas, the local MLAs made a formal request to the government for appointment of a local man as V-C of the university. Kodumur MLA M. Sikhamani, in whose constituency the university falls, told The Hindu that the university for Kurnool was inordinately delayed due to various reasons. To make up for the delay a local man should be posted as Vice-Chancellor for the fast development of the institution, he added.
He said the university had some teething problems like land acquisition and starting of innovative courses.
Only an educationist with a vision would take advantage of the delay and try to shape it into a modern university.
Meanwhile, the State Council of Higher Education was understood to have shortlisted names for the post.
Probable names
Prof. Umasankar, present special officer, Y. Krishna Reddy, Y. Venkatrami Reddy, Registrar of SV University, K. Ramakrishna Reddy, Prof Ranga Reddy, P.L. Srinivasa Reddy, Jayaraj and Phillips figured as the probables.
The Vice-Chancellor for SK University would also be posted along with the head for Rayalaseema University. Various permutations and combinations like community roaster, academic track record, administrative experience were being taken into consideration.

need help finding stackable dryer for my HE3T
We are remodeling the laundry and will have to find a dryer to stack on top of our Kenmore elite HE3T. (even though we love our big regular, reliable dryer). Sears sold me the stacking kit but I could not find a sales person that could tell me which dryer to buy to stack on top. They kept saying that it would be best to buy a new, complete stacking set. (Best for them, that is).
I am so confused by the complexity of the information. How do I figure out what to buy? I want the largest capacity dryer that will fit.
There was a card in the kit that says: Fits these laundry pairs 1) whirlpool duet, 2) whirlpool duet steam; Maytag performance series 3000/4000/5000/9000 7.2 $ 7.5 cu ft capacity dryers.
The face page of the instructions have listed on the front: Maytag, KitchenAid, Superba, HE3, HE3t, HE5, HE5t, Whirlpool Duet, Duet HT, Whirlpool 3RAWZ480E, 3RAWZ481E, 3RAWZ481G, AWM9000.
Or do I just have the carpenters build a sturdy shelf over the washer and stack whatever front loading dryer I buy? BTW the space is limited and I am worried about vibration/movement as the laundry will be on the 2nd floor.
thank you in advance for your help.
Building a shelf over the washer may be an ideal solution. It would allow any brand/model of dryer to go up there ... and (theoretically) eliminate the need to physically remove the dryer from atop the washer if the washer needs service.
Assuming the washer's plumbing connections will be behind it, you MUST make sure there's access to turn off the faucets, disconnect the power and so forth in case of a problem or flood situation.
Just know that with out very good solid structure beneath the dryer you could have some serious vibration, might want to check out vibration mats or pads etc. The high velocity spin really benefits from a very solid structure under it.
Would hate to see it vibrate right off of the shelf, attaching it might be a good idea.
ravencajun - I am confused by your advice because it is the washer that is on the floor. The fl washer does have a high velocity spin and vibrates quite a bit. But would a fl dryer also have a high velocity spin and lots of vibration? I currently have a top loading dryer and it doesn't do that. It is the dryer that would be up on the shelf.

Case closed?

Cops rule Brittany's death accidental but her supporters vow 'it's not over'
Rebecca Tully has struggled with myriad emotions during the six months since the death of her daughter, Britanny Wawrzyniak, but anger is not among them, she said.
Anger is the second of the five stages of loss grief outlined in Elisabeth Kübler-Ross 1969 book "On Death and Dying."
"I still haven't hit that anger part in any of this," Tully said Tuesday as she talked about the Worth Police Department's decision last week to close the investigation into her daughter's death.
Tully has experienced a gamut of other emotions ranging from shock and sadness to disbelief and disappointment since Nov. 8, the day he daughter died after being ejected for a moving car near the Worth boat launch, near 115th Street and Beloit.
She's come close to venting her rage at the police department and elected officials who she believes treated her daughter more like a criminal than victim.
She's also upset that she and her family did not receive more respect during the investigation, although she understood that the details of the probe could not be shared.
But last week's news, delivered to Tully at a meeting at the Worth police department, threw her for a loop.
Just a few weeks earlier, Worth Mayor Mary Werner said that it would be months before DNA results would be
