Pastrana's wife wins charity race in Charlotte
Lyn-Z Adams Hawkins Pastrana showed her husband she can drive pretty well, too.
Pastrana, the wife of X-Games star Travis Pastrana, won the charity race held before Sprint Cup qualifying at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
The Better Half Dash pitted 12 wives and girlfriends of NASCAR drivers against each other in Bandolero cars in a 25-lap race benefiting Speedway Children's Charities and Motor Racing Outreach.
''She's pretty good with the wheeled stuff,'' Travis Pastrana said.
An eight-time X Games medalist in skateboarding, Pastrana and her husband are into just about anything with wheels, so perhaps her prowess shouldn't have come so unexpectedly.
''We do like to go karting,'' she said. ''If we see a track when we're driving we go there, for sure, and I'm just starting to figure out how to take the corners.''
Pastrana received $10,000 for the charity of her choice.
Defending champion Jacquelyn Butler, the fiancee of NASCAR driver David Ragan, finished second.
Pastrana looked like a seasoned veteran, in the corners and everywhere else.
After starting second, she began looking to pass leader and pole sitter Wendy Venturini, a motorsports analyst for SPEED Channel, on lap four but couldn't clear her. Pastrana patiently waited several laps before cleanly passing Venturini for the lead.
She held on to the lead for the remainder of the race, even as many of the other drivers tangled.
The racing got competitive with Adriene Pattie, the wife of Clint Bowyer crew chief Brian Pattie, flipping her car midway through the race.
Her car had to be towed off the course, but Pattie was fine.
After being tended to by fire and medical staff, Pattie popped out of the top of her Bandolero car with both fists in the air, much to the delight of the crowd.
''This is my third time in a (race) car,'' Pastrana said. ''The first time was an off-road buggy; the second time was two laps in a restrictor plate NASCAR celebrity race; and then this car. I skateboard for a living, but this is very different. I was so nervous I don't think I could do more than one a year. I was white-knuckled the whole time, sweat dripping down my visor.''

Cloud Computing: Whose Law Governs the Cloud? (Part III)
Free registration required
Executive Summary
This paper is the last of a three-part series looking at cloud computing from market and legal perspectives. Part I, published in the June 2009 issue of Cyberspace Lawyer, examined the technological and business capabilities of cloud computing and the associated privacy and data security concerns. Part II, published in the September 2009 issue of Cyberspace Lawyer, highlighted recent industry and policy developments. This Part focuses on key jurisdictional issues that will shape the future of cloud computing: Whose law governs cloud services, especially if there is a security breach? And who has possession, custody or control over data in the cloud that is sought in litigation? Finally how will courts resolve conflicts of law between overlapping jurisdictional claims over conduct by cloud service providers?

Rusty Garrett here with the weekend outlook: Bright, blue skies and breezy winds out of the south will keep Saturday and Sunday pleasantly warm in the 70s!
KILLEEN (July1, 2014) Audley Ricardo Burrell, 41, of Killeen, was in the Bell County Jail Tuesday charged with injury to a child with serious bodily injury in connection with a what authorities say was a drunken shooting at a Killeen apartment that left an 11-year-old girl injured.
Burrell was ordered held in lieu of $100,000 bond.
An affidavit for the arrest warrant says police believe Burrell drank heavily for several hours last Thursday night until he passed out.
Burrell told police when he came to, he grabbed his gun, but because of his condition, dropped it and the weapon discharged, the affidavit said.
The girl's mother, who was in another room in the apartment at the time, told police she heard a loud popping noise and soon after her daughter came to her and told her that her arm hurt, the affidavit said.
The affidavit says the mother found two small holes in her daughter's arm and a hole in the ceiling.
A medical report attached to the affidavit said the child suffered a torn tendon that would require surgery to repair.

Standards For Interconnecting Virtual Worlds 142
from the can-i-hearth-back-to-everquest-yet dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
I worked for http://worlds.com/ [worlds.com] back in the mid 1990s (remember the billboards in S.F. and other major cities? What a freekin' JOKE), and we had the basic technology to do this back then. The system included a world builder as part of the product, although it needed at least another year of work to become a real product. The backend also allowed for this, you could link to other servers on different machines. Users of Worlds have been hacking on it to create their own worlds for years (the server really only tracks your location -- the textures and such are served up from HTTP servers, so once you get the server to a location that YOU have created, you can just distribute your world to your friends and serve up the textures). The problem was that the management at the time blew their entire wad on marketing (see above) and other follies, rather in focusing on anything that might be of USE! It was truely frustrating.
I am impressed by the tenacity of the current president -- Worlds.com has gone broke twice and is STILL hanging on and appears to be planning something for this fall (what it is, I have no idea -- I haven't worked there for over six years).
When you don't know what to do, walk fast and look worried.

Canadian star Georges St. Pierre makes return in UFC 154 vs. Carlos Condit
For the past five years, Georges St. Pierre has been unstoppable. The Canadian has proved fight in and fight out he is one of the best fighters in mixed martial arts.
Matt Hughes, B.J. Penn and Josh Koscheck have fallen victim to GSP since the second and most shocking loss of his career to Matt Serra in April of 2007.
After being sidelined the last year and a half with an ACL injury, the 31-year old St. Pierre (22-2) returns to the Octagon at UFC 154 to defend his welterweight title in front of his hometown fans in Montreal against interim title-holder Carlos Condit (28-5) of New Mexico.
The 28-year-old challenger poses perhaps the toughest challenge for the champion in the past few years. Condit, the former WEC welterweight champion, has won five bouts in a row, collecting a couple of "Knockout of the Night" bonuses along the way. That's why a major upset could be in the cards.
"I like playing the role of the spoiler," Condit said. "There's a lot of people in the sport and in the media that I think are overlooking me as an opponent for Georges."
Part of the reason might be the fact that a mega-fight awaits St. Pierre should he defeat the American challenger. That bout would be against middleweight champion Anderson Silva, arguably the best pound-for-pound fighter in MMA history.
"I don't feel like Georges is overlooking me, but I'm excited to get in there and do my thing and hopefully change a lot of plans," Condit said. "They're two of the greatest fighters ever to step in the Octagon and there's always that interest in seeing who really is the best, but first things first, Georges and I have to do our thing."
Facing Condit is a big risk, considering the magnitude of a fight against Silva, but GSP welcomes the pressure.
"I'm used to fighting under pressure, and I think I perform at my best when I feel like I'm over the edge," St. Pierre said. "That's when I'm at my best. So I think it's a good thing."
UFC president Dana White knows a Condit victory would disrupt plans for the biggest fight in UFC history. But White said he wanted to present the best fight possible for the fans.
"If you look at the way fights are done in boxing, when a champion of GSP's caliber comes back you usually give him an easy fight," White said. "This is far from an easy fight for Georges St-Pierre. This is a very tough fight."

Tropical Plant for my yard
Hi, I live in southern Mississippi and have moved out into the country. I have cleared off a section of land and am now looking for a way to inexpensively landscape my yard. I would like for the yard to have a very tropical look with as little effort as possible. Anything evergreen would be great. Can anyone suggest some plants?
There is a ton of gingers that do well in S MS, of course they(most) wont make it through the winter. I do have some that were frost bitten but are still green for the most part. Add some bananas, bunch of those do well here also.
To me, both are very tropical.
Where do you live? I'm in Vancleave
Cannas, gingers, bananas, and elephant ears die down in winter. LA iris, camellias and encore azaleas bloom in the Fall and Winter. Oriental magnolias such as Saucer, Star amd the Little Girl series defoliate in Winter, also bloom in late winter. Some species roses are evergreen and bloom in late Winter or early Spring like Cherokee, Lady Banks and Fortuniana. All of these plants can give a tropical look. Palms of course are great, but pick them carefully because occasionally a severe freeze burns non-native palms.
Pampas Grass is one of my favoirtes as is Fountain Grass. MIne look good all year round but when they bloom with their pretty plumes, they are spectaular. I also like different types of cane. I have Cattails in my back yard where it is always a little wet and Bamboo is great if you get the kind that will not spread much. Mine doesn't but I forget the name of it.
I'd have said same of many of these plants, also Hawaiian Ti (Good Luck) plants, Varigated (Shell?) Gingers and Hibiscus, especially when planted on the sheltered east or south side, in the ground and mulched, they'll recover after a freeze damage, better than in the containers Good luck.

Butterfly Bush Shade Tolerance
I received a Butterfly Bush as a gift but do not have a sunny spot where I can plant it. How shade tolerant are these plants?
I have three in large pots under the shade of an oak tree. They maintain their leaves very well but don't bloom much. I just haven't gotten around to figuring out where to plant them. Only the branches that get sunlight are blooming now :o)
~ Cat
I have two, one is a honeycomb in total afternoon shade. I figured planting it in the shade would help keep its size in check and it certainly did. Decent amount of foliage but not a lot of flowers. My Black Knight is only a few feet away and gets a little afternoon sun and it has done great. I when I pruned it I took some cuttings and placed them in a flower pot, and dang if a few hadn't made it and are starting to grow. This will be the plants second year, I cut them back several weeks ago and already they are growing like crazy.

This is an ideal little hotel for a short stay in Amalfi. It is right in the heart of the town and so within easy walking distance of all the attractions. Don't expect any frills, but the rooms are clean and comfortable albeit noisy at times due to the location. The staff are exceptionally helpful and friendly, breakfast is modest but the terrace is delightful. For a three star hotel this is a good choice.

We found a reasonable deal here, we were looking for something with an early morning free airport shuttle. We had an international 7 am flight, and leaving on the first shuttle out at 5 am was perfect. We weren't rushed neither were we sitting around the airport for hours.
We loved that included in our room price was a free breakfast. Since we were leaving before breakfast service began, we were offered a bagged breakfast to bring. It was perfect, a juice box, apple, yogurt and piece of carrot bread. We were a family of 4 and we each got a breakfast for the road. It saved time and money.
The hotel room itself was nice, my kids loved the big bathtub, we liked the flat screen tv. Room service was fabulous and affordable. There is an Applebee's and a mall within walking distance.
The pool was absolutely beautiful, but it was too cold and windy to swim.
Staff was very friendly and helpful.

A pivot shaft constructed with a holder having a base and a vertical mount for a sleeve with a pair of diametrically opposed notches to lock into, above the base is a spring, a washer, and a nut. The spring has one end inserted into a hole of the base and another blockaded by a outer edge of a washer. A shaft consisting of a head, a cylinder, and a threaded portion locks into the sleeve, the vertical mount, the spring, and the washer by engaging with the nut.
1. A pivot shaft comprising:
a holder having a base and a vertical mount, said base having two pairs of side holes and a pair of joint holes, said vertical mount having a shaft hole;
a sleeve having a first pair of diametrically opposed notches fitted into said shaft hole of said vertical mount, and providing an inner tapered portion for a shaft to pass therethrough and be rotatable therein;
said shaft constructed with a head, a cylinder, and a threaded portion which are integral, said head having a second pair of diametrically opposed notches, and a tapered portion provided between said head and said cylinder engaging with said inner tapered portion of said sleeve, said tapered portion on the shaft having a peripheral groove with a pair of channels disposed perpendicular thereto, said cylinder having a third pair of diametrically opposed notches near a boundary of said cylinder and said threaded portion engaging with a washer;
a spring provided about said shaft between said vertical mount and said washer, and a first end of said spring inserted into one of said joint holes and a second end of said spring abutting an outer edge on said washer;
said washer having said outer edge to block said second end of said spring and an opening for said threaded portion of said shaft to pass therethrough, said third pair of diametrically opposed notches of said cylinder engaging with said opening; and
a nut having an inner washer for said threaded portion to pass therethrough and fasten therein.
The present invention relates to an improved pivot shaft.
Due to the technological trait to miniaturize, there are many products that possess unprecedented achievements while requiring the same space or even less than their predecessors. Lap-top computers, for instance, are very powerful and perform functions within the same space as prior products. Accordingly, computer screens or monitors, for example, are incorporated into the covers of the computers for space-saving's sake, and subsequently the covers can be opened at a desired angle such that the screen can be viewed and operation can take place. However, these computers are not provided with any supporting structures, but only depend on pivot shafts to pivotally connect the covers and achieve a stationary position of the screen.
FIGS. 5 and 6 of the drawings show a conventional pivot shaft. It can be seen that the pivot shaft is constructed with a L-shaped holder (4) pivotally connected a shaft (40). The shaft (40) having a pair of symmetrical notches at one end for a sleeve (41) to pivotally connect therein. A spring (42), with multiple packed rings, having one end inserted into a notch of the holder (4) and another blocked by a outer edge (410) of the sleeve (41), is provided between the holder (4) and the sleeve (41). Under normal circumstances, the shaft (40), coupled to a cover, blockades its rotation by the outer edge (410) of the sleeve (41), and maintains an angle θ (see FIG. 6) from the horizontal level. The outer edge (410) of the sleeve (41) compresses one end of the spring (42) when the cover is closed and locked. After unlocking the cover, the outer edge (410) of the sleeve (41) pushed by the compressed spring (42), causing the cover to bounce back to its original position, angle θ. Afterwards, the shaft (40) can rotate to an angle by means of the frictional force produced between the multiple packed rings of the spring (42) and the shaft (40); therefore, the cover can be fixed.
However, the conventional pivot shaft referred to in FIGS. 5 and 6 bears some drawbacks in its structure. The spring merely provides the outer edge (410) of the sleeve (41) and the shaft (40), as well as the cover, with the necessary force to return back to its original position, θ angle. Furthermore, the shaft (40), fixed at any desired position, lies in the frictional force produced between the spring (42) and shaft (40). As a matter of fact, the spring (42) does not do much work in this application. Also, the frictional force will dwindle due to mechanical wear and consequently influence the function of the computer screen.
FIG. 7 of the drawings shows another conventional pivot shaft. It can be seen that this pivot shaft is constructed with a holder (5), a shaft (50), and a washer (51). The holder (5) has a hole for the shaft (50) to pass therethrough. The shaft (50) has a pair of symmetrical notches on one end to engage with the cover and another end passes through the hole of the holder (95). The washer (51) is provided a rough surface thereon to provide a frictional force when the shaft (50) rotates to a desired angle and fastened thereon. However, this kind of pivot shaft also shares a destined drawback, i.e., the washer (51) is too fragile to stably support the cover and screen thereon as well as too weak to resist wear.
It is the purpose of this present invention, therefore, to mitigate and/or obviate the above-mentioned drawback in the manner set forth in the detailed description of the preferred embodiment.
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide an improved pivot shaft which can fasten the cover of computer screens at any desired angle between 30 degrees and 135 degrees.
A further object of this invention is to provide a pivot shaft which is durable and not easily worn.
Further objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent as the following description proceeds, and the features of novelty which characterize the invention will be pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this invention.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the pivot shaft in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the pivot shaft shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a schematic front view of the pivot shaft in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 4 is a demonstration view, showing possible positions of the pivot shaft in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 5 is a front view of a well known pivot shaft;
FIG. 6 is a side view of the pivot shaft shown in FIG. 5; and
FIG. 7 is a perspective view of another well known pivot shaft.
In reference to FIGS. 1 through 3, a pivot shaft according to the present invention is constructed with a base (1) and a vertical mount (10). The base (1), having two pairs of side holes (12) and a pair of joint holes (11), respectively provided on each side thereof, extends from a lower portion of the vertical mount (10) to a first side thereof.
A sleeve (2) having a pair of diametrically opposed notches (20) on a first side thereof, being insertable into a shaft hole (13) of the vertical mount (10) from a second side of the vertical mount (10), and having an inner tapered portion (25) on a second side thereof, being provided on the second side of the vertical mount (10).
A shaft (21) is constructed with a head (210), a cylinder (213), and a threaded portion (215) which are integrated with one another. A second pair of diametrically opposed notches (211) is provided on an end portion of the head (210) for a cover (not shown) to be pivotally connected thereon. Between the head (210) and the cylinder (213) is provided a tapered portion (212) to contact with the inner tapered portion (25) of the sleeve (2), rendering the shaft (21) rotatable. A peripheral groove (216) having a lubricant is provided on the tapered portion (212) with a pair of channels 216a disposed perpendicular thereto. A third pair of diametrically opposed notches (214) are provided on the cylinder (213) near the threaded-portion (215) to engage with a washer (23).
A spring (22), having one end inserted into one joint hole (11) of the base (1) and another end to block an outer edge tab (230) of the washer (23), is provided on the first side of the vertical mount (10) with the shaft (21) passing therethrough, enveloping the cylinder (213) of the shaft (21). The washer (23) and the outer edge (230) are provided between the spring (22) and a nut (24) for the shaft (21) to pass therethrough to be secured. The nut (24) having a inner washer (240) is provided adjacent the washer (23) for the threaded portion (215) of the shaft (21) to engage therein. Screwing the nut (24) onto the threaded portion (215) renders the spring (22) to be compressed between the washer (23) and the vertical mount (10) and consequently produces a strong drag force to secure the cover at any desire angle.
Under normal circumstances, the outer edge (230) of the washer (23) compresses the spring (22) when the cover is closed and locked. After unlocking the cover, the outer edge (230) of the washer (23) pushed by the compressed spring (22) renders the cover to return to its original position. Then the shaft (21) can be rotated to any angle by the pivotal connection between the shaft and the sleeve (2), and be secured thereon by the rebounding force produced by the compressed spring (22); therefore, the cover can be secured.
Referring to the embodiment in FIG. 4, the pivot shaft in accordance with this invention is provided at the pivotal connection of the housing (3) and a cover (30) by the shaft (21). The cover (30) can be rotated easily within the range 30 degrees to 150 degrees because of the cooperation of the shaft (21), the sleeve (2) and the compressed spring (22).
Accordingly, the improved pivot shaft provides an simple and durable assembly of parts with a low cost, which can be adjustable within a large range of angles and is superior to conventional pivot shafts.
While the present invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that various modifications thereof will be apparent to those skilled in the art upon reading this specification. Therefore, it is to be understood that the invention disclosed herein is intended to cover all such modifications as shall fall within the scope of the appended claims.

Statik Selektah - To the Top ft. Cassidy, Saigon, & Termanology
Artist: Statik Selektah
Featuring: Cassidy, Saigon, Termanology
Producer: Statik Selektah
Album: Stick 2 The Script
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 29 votes )
When it comes to rap, producers are just as responsible as emcees for a track's success or failure. Unfortunately, while the man on the boards may be half of the equation, he typically receives far less than half of the credit. When a beat like Statik Selektah's Take It To The Top comes around, you can't help but hope the man gets his due. Sure, Cassidy, Saigon, and Termanology hold down their end on the mic, but the real star of the track doesn't say a word. Statik really brings his A-game, mixing in some live-sounding drums and subdued bass with an airy guitar that makes the treble sing like an angel. If dope music isn't your thing, don't check out his upcoming mixtape, Stick 2 The Script (Sept. 30).

Conservative filmmaker Dinesh D'Souza got blasted on Twitter after comparing himself to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Yes, he had the nerve to compare himself to the civil rights icon.
D'Souza tweeted: "AN INTERESTING PARALLEL: MLK was targeted by J. Edgar Hoover, an unsavory character; I was targeted by the equally unsavory B. Hussein Obama."
Um, that's not even funny. It's pathetic. MLK stood for something quite unlike Dinesh D'Souza.
Here are some tweets mocking Dinesh D'Souza:
@davmarshall2005 @dineshdsouza He was not convicted of anything.
— Jazz Purist (@jazzpurist) January 19, 2015
.@DineshDSouza 1. You're a convicted, admitted felon. 2. MLK improved the lives of millions. 3. Obama doesn't even think about you.
— Ted Gideonse (@gideunz) January 19, 2015
@DineshDSouza Nice try, felon.

nicked garlic while peeling still ok to plant?
I am planting my garlic this weekend, I sat down and was peeling them any tips for this? I nicked the main body of the clove (it was a super huge clove too so I'd replace it but its really big).
What about the base of the clove... do you leave anyof the hard base part of the bulb or just pull it all off.
Does any of this matter?
I would not do anything other than just separating the cloves from the bulb, no nicking, no peeling . JUST PLANT IT AS IS, tip up, root side down. And I would not plant the tiny cloves in the center. Plant them about 6" apart.
The bigger the clove the bigger the plant.
just split the cloves as seysonn says, don't bother peeling the individual cloves or removing the basal plate, the roots grow out from the perimeter of the base of the cloves. my only reservation about planting a damaged/nicked clove would be that it could be more susceptible to a fungal infection.
If you haven't already finished separating/popping your bulbs, just remove the outer bulb wrappers and if they're hardnecks, cradle the base and jiggle the stalk to gently lever loose the individual cloves. Only plant the biggest outer cloves of your soft necks, if you want to plant the small inner cloves, keep them separate and harvest them early for use as garlic greens or if left to mature, you'll probably get rounds - undivided bulbs that you can eat or save to replant next year.

33-year-old German actress Diane Kruger played Bridget von Hammersmark in Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds which means she's already one step ahead of most of the actresses we spend valuable time writing about. Sorry if that sounds mean, but in this line of work you do start to notice a trend for attractive people who aren't that talented getting loads of attention because of their nice bottoms. Well not anymore. Not until next time. Not until we steal these Diane Kruger pictures from the latest issue of Allure magazine and post them right here:
The best thing about these Diane Kruger photos is she's making a v-necked woolly jumper look like something you'd buy in a high-end lingerie retailer. Or is involved in the best Debenhams advert in the world:
At this stage, the obvious next step is a close up of Diane Kruger's face:
Good face.

While most of her schoolmates in Ajmer, Rajasthan, were solely immersed in academics, Neelambari Perumal's formative years were dedicated equally to theatre and classical dance. But like her peers, she didn't remain unaffected by the glamorous world of Bollywood. "My ultimate dream is to star in a remake of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge opposite SRK," she gushes, evidently star-struck. While she waits for this dream to come true, Neelambari is looking forward to her Bollywood debut in the soon-to-release film, Jeet Lengey Jahaan.
Her words, however, hardly indicate the strain of militancy that clouded her early days. Being the daughter of former Chief Minister of Sri Lanka's North Eastern province, Vardaraja Perumal, her family constantly faced death threats from a militant group. Perhaps this restlessness of her growing-up years sought outlet in dance, acting and social work.
"The topics discussed at home were grim news of people close to us being killed in war in Sri Lanka became a part of everyday life," says the 25-year old. Having spent her schooling days in Ajmer, her family eventually moved to Delhi.
Neelambari's first feature film, though, was a Malayalam film called Bombay Mittayi, which never released. "It was a big deal for me, I got to work with Dimple Kapadia in my first film, so it was a setback when it didn't release," she says. Jeet Lengey Jahaan, a first-time venture by a Delhi-based production house, Ashoka Motion Picture, is about the coming-of-age of three young college-goers, and is based on an actual rape incident in Delhi.
The film, which will release on November 23, isn't quite the big Bollywood break that every newcomer aspires for, but Neelambari is glad that she worked with honest filmmakers. "There was a lack of experience since the talent working on the film was mostly new. But unlike many, at least they knew what they wanted to do," she says.
Despite revolving around its male protagonists, it gave Neelambari enough meat to chew on as an actor. "I play a significant role in the film's most important juncture and I got the opportunity to show my acting skills," she says. Neelambari, who is currently shooting for a Tamil film in a remote village in Tamil Nadu, is in talks with a few directors, and she hopes that Jeet Lengey Jahaan will open Bollywood's doors for her. And perhaps, that dream of acting with SRK will come true.

The Europe tour was amazing!! A hearty thank you to all who attended the shows and to the agents, promoters, venues, and other musicians who made it all possible. It's March and that means Texas and SXSW. I will begin in San Antonio, then on to Dallas, and end with lucky seven SXSW concerts in Austin. I'm looking forward to seeing all my old friends. All the details are at The Tour Page! I'll be posting loads of photos and updates about this wonderful festival on Instagram, FB, and Twitter.

I've looked all over for an answer to this but can't seem to find one. (I have fairly limited experience with C++)
In my library, I free a string. (Amazing, huh?)
This is where the problem arises. I have a struct which contains a char* that may be allocated on the heap or may not be. While it is a valid pointer it cannot be freed.
char* s1 = "A String";
char* s2 = (char*)memcpy(malloc(9), s1, 9);
Will cause an error on "free(s1);" (As it should) Because s1 does not actually need to be freed, (It isn't on the heap) how can I handle this in an "acceptable" way? (On similar topics the answer of "let it crash" didn't seem reasonable IMO)
Because the struct is not solely created by the library, it is not possible to guarantee that a string will be properly copied over using something like memcpy.
Seeing as this is a windows library, I don't need to worry about using ISO C stuff or standard C functions.

ReLED Systems offer LED replacement for fluorescent tubes
By Emily Clark
November 12, 2007
November 13, 2007 ReLED Systems has introduced a solid state replacement for fluorescent tubes which allows existing light fixtures to be simply converted to Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs), offering lower energy consumption, longer lamp life and environmental advantages over fluorescent tubes.
The Re-LT5 LED Component System fluorescent replacement consists of high brightness diodes packaged in standard fluorescent lamp formats and coupled with a low profile driver. The durable, aluminum lamp conforms to the dimensions of a linear T5 lamp and installs into fluorescent G5 base lamp holders just as easily. The user simply changes the light bulb or tube as normal and the fluorescent light is replaced by LED. The straight-forward design of the components is aimed at simplifying the utilization of LED technology into retrofit and new construction applications.
In addition to energy savings, the benefits of LED lighting technology include a 10 year service life (more than half a billion tubes disposed of each year in the U.S. alone), no UV emissions, high quality light, and cold temperature operation.

(4.3L V8 7-speed Automatic)
2005 Mercedes-Benz S-Class Sedan S430 Rwd 4dr Sedan (4.3L 8cyl 7A)
This is my first Benz and I really like the car. My fiance bought a 2004 C Class the same day and has not had as good an experience as I. Great interior size, great performance, great styling. White Exterior, cream interior - just yummy looking! Stereo system sounds great, but the iPod connection is subpar, to say the least. Handles well in all weather and the brakes are second to none; I feel very safe in this vehicle. The only major issues are: electronics are touch and go on this vehicle, maintenance costs are expensive on all MB, storage is NON EXISTANT on this vehicle (interior or trunk - you are hard pressed to fit 10 bags of groceries). But the leg room in back is truly wonderful!

This car has been the worst car I have ever had. The vaccum assist has gone bad 5 times and so has the GPS. Driver side seat has been repired more than 4 times. Above all, I lost complete power stering fluid at 65mph and no warning light came. I nearly died controlling the car. Tire pressure sensors have gone bad, battery, alternator, dvd on the gps. Music dvd cartridge. The only saving grace has been that the dealers repiring the car have been polite and agreed to fix the items. Now as soon as the car is out of warranty i needed engine mounts, trans mounts and control arms. German cars are not only very poorly made, they are also very, very expensive to maintain.

I have bought two of these cars in the last few months. The first was for my wife. She loved it so much, she would not let me near it. I had to get one for myself. It is quiet and solid. Definite first class ride and feel, and a great value in comparison. You can easily negotiate 15 to 20% off MSRP, making it a great buy for something you will love to drive for many years to come. I do love the gadgets. Voice activated system, great navigation, satellite radio, phone, and all the extra stuff I still need to learn about. My only criticism is MB did away with the included maintenance and some of the cloth interior, i.e. visor, etc look a little chintzy on this flagship model. A great car!

Great styling, wonderful performance, spacious interior. A must have if you want to drive an awesome sedan with nible capabilities that has safety features that are second to none. And you will always get front row parking from the valet.

This is my third Benz and I'm still quite pleased with selection. Even thought this is a large car, the sport package helps make it look and perform like a smaller sport sedan. Styling of the car sets it apart from the competition. Dealer support remains strong. Only dissatisfaction is in rear tire wear.

My Mercedes-Benz S430 is the finest car that I've ever driven. This is the so-called base model of the "S" series and it is provided with standard features that most other manufacturers have never even thought of. It actually out-performs the stated EPA mileage data (17/26). It provides an amazing blend of comfort and performance at a surprisingly tolerable price.

I have owned Volvos, Bmw's and Mercedes Benz. The new S 430 I recently purchased with the AMG package is not only the nicest looking car I have ever owned, it is the most fun to drive. For a large sedan, it drives like a smaller vehicle and is very easy to navigate in the city, and is pure heaven on the open road. This is without a doubt the best vehicle I have ever owned and it is more comfortable to drive than my wifes 2004 SL500. I can't wait to see what Mercedes comes up with next.

Hardscaping around shallow tree roots
We have heavy clay soil and a well-established tree near a fenceline with many exposed roots, and I'm sure many shallow ones that we don't see as well.
We want to build some brick raised beds along this fence and around the tree. We know not to build a raised bed directly around or against the tree, and instead wanted to build a 4-6 foot brick ring around the trunk and fill it with large river rocks to allow it to breathe and still tie in to our raised beds along the fence.
For most hardscapes, you generally dig 8-12" down, lay a course of gravel, sand, and then your brick.
Given all the roots, this wouldn't really be possible without seriously risking hurting the tree. Are there alternatives to making structurally sound hardscape footings/foundations which can go on top of shallow roots?
We haven't finalized a design, and we will keep in mind that shallow and exposed roots need to maintain their access to oxygen and water. What are some of our options to keep the tree happy and also have aesthetically pleasing hardscape planters?
In short: how can I make structurally sound hardscape around shallow and/or exposed roots without damaging the tree? Or is this generally not possible?
Here is a pic of more of the fenceline. You can't see them in the picture, but there are visible roots (maybe 3" diameter max) up to about 3 feet out from the trunk. After that they are sparse and not very large.
Also, if this is helpful, the neighboring yard on the other side of the fence is down a small ~4' slope, which begins right at the fenceline.
Why don't you sketch out a plan view of your proposal so it can be better understood? It's also not good to build a raised bed up against a fence, so not sure how you're dealing with that. 4' to 6' diameter circle around the tree would be too close. The tree would destroy your work in not too much time. Also, it wouldn't be a good idea to heap a deep layer of stone mulch around the trunk. What are the beds for and why must they be raised? I think it complicates your project much.
Thanks, I will work on a sketchup layout of what we are wanting to do but it sounds like it's not very feasible or practical from what you are saying.
We would likely be planting partial shade flowers or low water plants in the beds and are wanting to do it with hardscape mostly for aesthetic reasons, since our back yard is pretty unsightly and chaotic right now.
Why are raised brick planters a no-go along the fence? Same for large river rock near the trunk? Would it still cause moisture and rot issues on the trunk?
Thanks for the insight, however I'm still wondering what the standard practice is for hardscaping areas with shallow roots near trees. I know I've seen it done, out driving around, but maybe it was incorrectly done or shouldn't have been.
Of course it depends on many factors, but surprisingly, rocks can stay moist for some time if there is depth to them. It's not the way trees grow naturally, so no reason to think deep rock mulch around their trunks is beneficial. I cannot prove to you that it is harmful ... just that it's not natural and normal. The generally accepted advice on mulch is not to create depth of it right at the trunk.
If you build a masonry structure very close to a fence, it will keep the wood between the two moist longer and it will rot sooner. It will also create a gap between the two that is basically, unmaintainable ... difficult to remove things from between them.
What causes you to think that raised planters next to fence are the solution? It seems like there must be other easier, less expensive and just as attractive solutions.
That all makes sense. I am not committed to hardscape but I very much like the look of it and once it's done it is easy to maintain. Barring raised beds, what options are there to work around the large shallow roots?
In addition to this fence there is also a 4-5' slope to the right which we were hoping to terrace or hardscape as well, and the planters would have tied in nicely. The same question applies to that slope though.
There are 2 large trees on the slope with large and some exposed or shallow roots. Any ways around that? I've looked around online for ideas, like on pinterest but honestly did not see a whole lot that I liked which didn't feature terracing of some sort, and am curious to how that would have been accomplished without hurting the trees.
Thanks for the advice so far.
I would not hard scape around that tree. It will ruin the fence and possibly rot the tree at the base. Someone across the road from us tried to spruce up a tree base and it retained too much water causing the tree to simply tip right over. Fortunately down the hill and not on their house it was next to. It was not a small tree either. You could define a border around the tree with something loose and airy. Mexican beach pebbles or big redwood chips but not fill it in with anything over the roots. Check for too much water retention. I spray fence wood that hits soil with water seal after staining which has worked okay. We are in the woods. Its damp In the winter.
You need some shallow stepped beds or terracing down the slope for erosion control before you worry about the flat part.
"what the standard practice is for hardscaping areas with shallow roots near tree"
You avoid doing it. Either the tree roots destroy the hardscape or the hardscape kills the tree. It doesn't happen immediately, which is why you see it, but it's almost certain to happen. If you were starting from scratch, there are "polite" trees that don't throw out surface roots, but you want to keep the tree.
Same with raised beds/planters on house wall or fence, unless you do some extraordinary waterproofing. Rot is inevitable.
So ... what to do to improve the livability of that area? Because that's the real question.
I would put a "floating deck" around the base of the tree, made with modular wood pallets resting on concrete pavers at the corners so you can clean under it occasionally and enjoy the shade of the tree. Outdoor living area big enough for a couple of chairs and a bistro table, or bigger. If you go modular you can increase size by adding more modules.
And make raised beds - away from the fence and with one side high enough to have a sittable edge - at the borders of the floating deck. If you put them between the deck and the house you would have a sense of privacy. And seating!
kinda like these:
Thanks everyone.
@lazygardens: floating deck is an interesting idea I had not thought of, maybe I'll tinker with some designs for that.
We considered taking the tree down and planting a new one that would accommodate our plans better but I hated the idea of bringing down such a well established tree.
I am working on a Google sketchup layout of our yard and I will post another thread for suggestions once that is complete.
Thanks again all!

Whew, doggies! If you thought the Osbournes were an odd fit for posh 90210, wait until a real-life version of the Clampett clan loads up the truck and moves to Beverly Hills.
Variety reports that CBS is taking Elly Mae up on her invitation--"Y'all come back now, y'hear?"--and reviving its classic series The Beverly Hillbillies with a reality-show twist, transplanting a real-life lower-middle-class rural family (including their granny) in a mega-money Beverly Hills mansion for one year, where they'll live in the lap of luxury and have the chance to earn their own substantial cash rewards.
In the show, tentatively titled The Real Beverly Hillbillies, cameras will follow the countrified family's every move as they are provided with everything from maid service to personal assistants. The immediate clan of five or six will occasionally be visited by their extended family--just in time for lunch at Spago and power shopping on Rodeo Drive, no doubt.
"It's a great fish-out-of-water story," said CBS vice president of alternative programming Ghen Maynard. "A lot of it will be funny, but a lot of it will be real. We want to find a family that's different from what most people know but still relatable, a family that loves each other a lot...who has a sense of humor about themselves." A hotline is expected to open within days for potential families who want to audition.
CBS produced 274 episodes of The Beverly Hillbillies, which aired from 1962 until 1971. At one point the show was TV's No. 1 program, attracting up to 60 million viewers weekly. With a lineup that included Green Acres The Andy Griffith Show, CBS dominated ratings in rural communities. The network, which bought the new pitch immediately, still owns the right to The Beverly Hillbillies title.
"The intent is to be respective but at the same time enjoy the humor that comes from the fish-out-of-water scenario of the show," Maynard said, insisting it will not mock rural culture. "Imagine the episode where they have to interview maids."

Couple of snapshots

This first picture is of a walmart bulb that I got last season after they were on clearance and their scapes aborted. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised when it bloomed. It has one of the most perfect whites I have ever seen in my opinion. Here it is.
The other is one that I saw at a flower show and I took a picture of the flower because I liked it, but foolishly forgot to shoot the id. Maybe you can help. It was something with the word "Isle" in the name if I remember correctly.

SHANGHAI, China, Nov. 22 -- China's world No. 2 Lin Dan scored an easy win over Jan Jorgensen of Denmark to claim the men's singles title at the ongoing China Open badminton here on Sunday.
The finals of the China Open attracted the biggest number of spectators of these days.
Jorgensen stunned the Chinese audience by edging out Chen Jin of China, while Lin eased out all his opponents in the previous rounds.
Lin ended the first set at ease, as usual, delivering a masterful performance to lead from the very beginning. Jorgensen seemed to be in trouble in finding his own rhythm. Lin claimed the first set 21-12.
Jorgensen tried to recover in the second set, only to find himself 1-7 behind Lin after several long rallies. He then made use of Lin's two errors to pull back to 3-7 before Lin speeded up to establish a 12-5 lead. Jorgensen seemed to have used up his energy after that, and Lin sealed his victory with another 21-12.
Lin seemed excited after the final.
"I feel happy to win China Open. I was troubled by injury all through these days, and I also feel tired because of the tight schedule. Anyway, winning a champion at home is exciting."
Jorgensen seemed satisfied with his performance in this season. "It was a tough game and I hadn't expected to reach the final in this tournament, starting with beating Lee Chong Wei. Beating ChenJin yesterday was a big achievement and I am just happy to reach the final. I got the chance to play him (Lin Dan) and it was amazing."
SHANGHAI, Nov. 19 -- Lu Lan from China beat her teammate Wang Lin at ease to advance to China Open Badminton quarterfinals here on Thursday.
World No. 3 Wang Lin seemed affected by injuries, and she lost the match without causing Lu much trouble.
The first set began with Lu's leading 7-2. Wang struggled to find her rhythm to give up her first set 12-21.
Wang tried to recover at the beginning of the second set, but Lu copied her performance, refusing to give Wang any chance to lead.
Wang made too many unforced errors afterwards, and Lu succeeded in securing her victory 21-10.
"I think I did my best today," Lu said. "I tried to follow my own rhythm and keep active through the match."
Wang didn't look disappointed after the loss. She said she was satisfied with her performance this season, expecting to keep moving ahead.

Everything was great. No complaints.
Esma and her mother were world class hosts for me in Ljubljana. The room was tidy, and everything in order. Her mother made an amazing breakfast with my first ever cup of Turkish coffee. The space smelled like fresh laundry and great food! Such a close walk to city centre. For an American spending his first days in Europe, it was extremely comfortable for me. Highly recommended for anyone. Ljubljana: what a hidden gem of a city!
We had a fantastic New Year trip to Ljubljana. We recall our stay at Esma's with great warmth. Esma and her mom Aisha are great hosts. Aisha made very tasty breakfast for us, and traditional Slovenian lunch on the 1st of January was just super! The house has a great location, near the church, in fact just few steps from the very center of the city. At the same time, absolutely peace and quite. It is so important for those coming from big cities. Wifi and other things worked well. highly recommended!
I had a great stay at Esma's. The room and bed were very comfortable, all facilities were of good quality, and the place was situated conveniently close to the city center. Esma's mom stayed in the other section of the house, and was extremely friendly. Esma herself was also very nice and helpful when we met at check-in. Highly recommended!
I had a great time staying at Esma's place, everything was perfectly fine.
Highly recommend.
Wonderful apartment and very comfortable location on the center of Ljubljana. Fine and very kind proprietaries. Ajsha-Esma's mom- makes very good and tasty breakfast. Esma, thank you very much for hospitality and help) I hope to further friendship with you)))
Esme's mom was really great, family atmosphere. nice breakfast, lunch ma just great and everything is clean, tidy and everything is very close and yet peace and quiet: D indeed if we stay in the beautiful memories, and with it all though was my first marathon. what to say but I'll see you next year: D
Esma's apartment is very comfortable, and in a charming part of Ljubljana. Best of all though is Esma's family. We felt very welcomed here. Thanks to Esma's, Ajsa and Jure for your overwhelming hospitality.
Fantastic apartment with everything you need. In a quiet location near the old town. Our host Esma made us very welcome. The lovely cheesecake given to us by Esma's mother was wonderful.
I highly recommend this apartment and hosts.
The house was very comfortable for 4 persons. Nevertheless, there was much humidity in one of the bedrooms and that caused an intense smell, so all the 4 of us had to sleep in the living room. Rather than that,everything was fine. The bathroom and kitchen were fully equipped. Esma's son and mother welcomed us, her mother made a delicious cake for us and also left in the fridge some food and drinks for breakfast, really nice of her. Location of the house is perfect, really nice and quite neighbourhood. 2-3 cosy bars just around the corner,also a supermarket. A pleasant 10 min walk by the river takes you to the center. Overall a very good experience.
I'm so sorry about that, but this summer we've had a very bad weather and a large quantites of the rain which caused increased humidity (not only in the house). Usually the humidity and the smell can be normalised simply with opening of the windows. But as far as I know you kept the windows closed all the time.
Non ho avuto il piacere di conoscerle personalmente.
Ma da quanto mi è stato riferito da chi si è interessato di loro, posso dire che sono delle persone tranquille, degli ottimi ospiti. Consigliati
I dindn't meet a couple.Hope they had a nice stay.Welcome back :)
Very good guest!
Esma y su familia son encantadores súper limpios y ordenados de los recomiendo a cualquier anfitrión
