Major Section: RELEASE-NOTES
NOTE! New users can ignore these release notes, because the documentation has been updated to reflect all changes that are recorded here.
Fixed soundness bugs in the handling of primitive function pkg-witness
and improved its documentation. (The executable counterpart returned an
incorrect default value, and the axiom
needed pkg-name
to be other than
in order to avoid the default value of "ACL2".) As fallout, a new
built-in :
, now asserts that the
of a symbol is never ""
. Thanks to Mike
Gordon for bringing these soundness bugs to our attention by attempting to
prove translations of ACL2 axioms in HOL4.
Fixed a soundness bug in linear arithmetic, due to incomplete tracking of
forced assumptions while deriving inequalities. Thanks to Robert Krug for
providing a fix and a proof of nil
before the fix.
Fixed a soundness bug in the redundancy criterion for defun
which has been modified; see redundant-events. This bug is illustrated
below. Thanks to Peter Dillinger and Jared Davis for contributions to an
email thread that led us to discover this bug. The solution is that for a
definition to be redundant with an earlier definition, ACL2 no longer ignores
except when skipping proofs (e.g., during
). However, a new ``measure'', (:? v1 ... vk)
, is
supported, for specifying a measured subset of the set of formals, i.e., a
set of formals that serves as the set of parameters for some valid measure.
(encapsulate ()(local (defun foo (x y) (declare (xargs :measure (acl2-count y))) (if (and (consp x) (consp y)) (foo (cons x x) (cdr y)) y)))
; So the following is redundant -- but it guesses a measure ; of (acl2-count x), which isn't right! (defun foo (x y) (if (and (consp x) (consp y)) (foo (cons x x) (cdr y)) y)))
; end of encapsulate
; Now we prove a non-theorem by exploiting the bug above, ; erroneously replacing formal y by a constant in the induction ; scheme hinted below. (This should not be allowed, as y should be ; labeled as a measured formal.)
(defthm bad (atom x) :rule-classes nil :hints (("Goal" :induct (foo x '(3)))))
; It's easy to get a contradiction by instantiating the ; non-theorem just above. (defthm contradiction nil :rule-classes nil :hints (("Goal" :use ((:instance bad (x '(7)))))))
Fixed a bug in :
and the proof-checker's show-rewrites
) command that was causing a Lisp break. For :
, also
improved the display of unifying substitutions, modified output to take
binding hypotheses (equal var term)
into account properly, and arranged
for inclusion of meta rules that modify the given term. Thanks to Eric
Smith for bringing these issues to our attention.
Introduced new utilities for undoing commands, :
, which are analogous to :
and :
(respectively) except that they only undo back up to, but not including, the
indicated command.
Fixed a performance bug, pointed out by Eric Smith, that was negating efforts made for the preceding release to avoid computation for disabled warnings.
Added time$
and value-triple
to *acl2-exports*
. Thanks to Bob
Boyer and Erik Reeber (respectively) for bringing these issues to our
Improved the automatic proclaiming of function types for GCL and OpenMCL, specifically to use an output format consistent with the Common Lisp spec. Thanks to Bob Boyer for bringing this issue to our attention.
Added books/misc/transfinite.lisp
, which deals with transfinite induction
in ACL2. Thanks to Eric Smith for contributing this book.
Added books/misc/process-book-readme.lisp
to the distribution. Thanks to
Sandip Ray for pointing out its omission.
Added contributions books/concurrent-programs/bakery/
. These contributions can be
used as tutorials, especially by new ACL2 users, for learning how to model
concurrent protocols in ACL2 and the steps involved in reasoning about their
correctness. Thanks to Sandip Ray for these contributions. See the
files in these directories.
Theory invariants may now involve the variable ENS
instead of the
variable THEORY
. The practical effect of this change is that any
expression of the form (MEMBER-EQUAL rune THEORY)
occurring in a
expression should be replaced by
(ACTIVE-RUNEP rune)
. See theory-invariant. Thanks to Eric Smith and
Dave Greve for pointing out an inefficiency in the handling of theory
invariants that led to this change, which can speed up their handling by
orders of magnitude on large examples, and to Eric for testing this change
and pointing out problems with an early implementation of it.
Theory invariants (see theory-invariant) are no longer checked on theories
defined by deftheory
events. After all, one can define a theory
with deftheory
that is not intended to be used as the current theory, but
rather is intended to be combined with other theories
(see theory-functions). Thanks to Eric Smith for bringing this issue to our
errors had been reported with very little detail when
warnings were inhibited. This problem has been fixed; thanks to Eric Smith
for bringing it to our attention and providing an example. We have also
improved the handling of redundancy for theory-invariant
The macro defun-sk
now has a new optional keyword, rewrite
, that
can be used to change the form of the :
rule generated when
the quantifier is forall
. Thanks to Eric Smith and Sandip Ray for
useful discussions on this topic. We have also slightly modified the
hints for the defthm
event underneath a defun-sk
in order to
make the proof more reliably efficient.
A new event, reset-prehistory
, allows setting of a barrier before which
undoing is illegal. An argument to this macro allows the barrier to be made
permanent; otherwise, it can be removed with :
Thanks to Peter Dillinger for useful conversations leading to the addition of
A new query, (
, allows users to
determine whether or not they are in a wormhole
. Thanks to Peter
Dillinger for providing this utility.
no longer evaluates its form during include-book
, and
in raw Lisp its calls trivially macroexpand to nil
, without any
consideration of its argument. This change avoids errors and warnings when
stobj names occur in the argument.
We fixed what could be considered a soundness hole that could occur by exploiting redefinition in a particular way. Thanks to Peter Dillinger for raising a question that led to discovery of this hole.
A bug has been fixed in handling of illegal theory expressions. Thanks
to Eric Smith, who reported this problem and provided the example
(in-theory '((:definition natp) (:rewrite doesntexist)))
to show how a hard error could occur.
Improved error reporting by certify-book
when the certification
world contains inadmissible forms.
Modified defchoose
to add two new keyword arguments. There is now a
keyword argument; previously, an optional documentation string
(see doc-string) was to be placed just before the body, without a keyword.
There is also a :strengthen
argument that strengthens the axiom added,
which allows for the definition of ``fixing'' functions for equivalence
relations that choose canonical representatives of equivalence classes.
See defchoose. Thanks for Dave Greve for useful discussions that led us to
this :strengthen
Added books/misc/bash.lisp
, which provides utilities for simplifying a
goal into a list of subgoals (as documented at the top of that file). Thanks
to Dave Greve for requesting this utility and suggesting refinements to its
functionality, which have been incorporated.
(For Emacs users only) The command meta-x new-shell
provided by file
now puts you in shell-mode, which for example
supports directory tracking. Thanks to Jared Davis for suggesting this
Fixed some mishandling of stobjs by make-event
Introduced a new event, defttag
, that introduces a ``trust tag''
(``ttag'') allowing for extensions of ACL2 and for the use of generally
unsafe ACL2 constructs. Thanks to Peter Dillinger, Sandip Ray, and Erik
Reeber for useful discussions on defttag
and the following related
A new event,
, can be used to give users access to system functions and data structures. We also fixed a bug inpush-untouchable
; and, it no longer is a no-op in:
mode. Thanks to Peter Dillinger for proposingremove-untouchable
and suggesting that it andpush-untouchable
be functional in:
mode.Raw-mode (see set-raw-mode) no longer disables
. However,set-raw-mode
is now disallowed unless there is an active ttag (see defttag). If you want to execute(
and there is no active ttag, consider executing(
instead.Redefinition of system functions is disallowed unless there is an active ttag. However,
now introduces(defttag :redef!)
in order to allow redefinition of system functions.A new event,
, is a legal embedded event form that can go in books and bothencapsulate
forms (see embedded-event-form), and is similar toprogn
except that it allows arbitrary forms. Thus, aprogn!
form is potentially dangerous and can only be evaluated if there is an active ttag.See ttags-seen for information about how to find the ttags known in the current ACL2 world, and for related caveats.
A new book created with Peter Dillinger,
, usesprogn!
to define utiliitieswith-raw-mode
, which respectively allow raw Lisp evaluation and redefinition to take place within a certifiable book (!).
Macro with-output
is no longer allowed in function bodies because it
does not have (and has never had) any effect in raw Lisp. See with-output
for a workaround.
Fixed a bug in redundancy of defstobj
in raw Lisp, which caused an
error when certifying a book with a redundant defstobj
event whose
had already been modified. Here is an example:
(defstobj st fld) (update-fld 3 st) (certify-book "foo" 1) ; where foo.lisp contains (defstobj st fld)
New books illustrating make-event
have been contributed in directory
: dotimes.lisp
(David Rager), stobj-test.lisp
and logical-tangent.lisp
(Peter Dillinger).
Modified print-object$
(see io) so that it no longer prints an extra
space at the end.
Replaced the ``draconian restriction to avoid capture'' that had prevented
some :functional-instance
hints from being legal. The corresponding
check now only requires that no variable free in the functional substitution
is captured by a let
or mv-let
(or lambda
) binding.
See lemma-instance.
Added new extended metafunction, mfc-rw+
, which is equivalent to
except that it takes an alist argument, which may be useful for
efficiency. See extended-metafunctions. Thanks to Robert Krug for
suggesting this more efficient variant of mfc-rw
Added support for the ignorable
We now cause an error on a call of open-input-channel
(see io) with an
argument string whose first character is the |
character. Thanks to Bob
Boyer for providing an example (several months ago) showing the danger of
such calls, namely that the following command would log you out and kill all
of your processes when running on top of GCL in Linux:
(open-input-channel "|kill -9 -1" :object state)
Restricted the use of make-event
to contexts in which it can be tracked
properly, under legal events (see embedded-event-form). Thanks to
Peter Dillinger for bringing an example to our attention that led to this
Fixed a bug that was avoiding guard-checking for the functions
and compress2
. Thanks to David Rager for bringing this
bug to our attention.
Added an error message when a defun
or mutual-recursion
fails, to clarify whether failure is for the measure conjecture or for
the guard conjecture. Thanks to David Rager for requesting
clarification for such failures.
Fixed a bug in reporting of guard violations (hard Lisp error) when certain
macros (for example, cond
) are used in the guard. Thanks to Jared
Davis for bringing this problem to our attention and providing assistance
with the solution, in particular by providing a helpful example.
Grant Passmore has contributed a resolution/paramodulation prover written in
ACL2, in directory books/deduction/passmore/
. Thanks, Grant.
Improved the error message when illegal theories are encountered.
Improved the suppression of output for inhibit-output
arguments of
routines in the book books/misc/expander.lisp
. Thanks to Qiang Zhang for
pointing out the possibility for improvement here.
Added a new directory books/arithmetic-3/extra/
that extends
with additional rules, contributed by Alex
Spiridonov with guidance from Robert Krug. WARNING: This directory is under
development. It may undergo large changes in future releases, so please
consider it experimental and subject to change. Feedback is welcomed.
As part of the work mentioned just above, Robert Krug and Alex Spiridonov
contributed improvements to books/arithmetic-3/
o A new rule
|(* (/ x) (/ (expt x n)))|
, which is important for reducingcollect-*
expressions though it slowed down one proof (see comment above this rule inbind-free/collect.lisp
).o Slight improvements of rules
.o To avoid conflict with
, renamed rulemod-minus
, and renamedintegerp-+-reduce-leading-constant
(GCL on Windows only) Made a low-level change to avoid multiplying stacks for GCL on Windows, since GCL 2.6.6 broke while doing this.
Fixed bugs in linear arithmetic (rarely evidenced, it seems) involving using
to compare complex rational constants. Thanks to Robert Krug for
helping with the fixes.
Added a new event, assert-event
, for checking that forms evaluate to
values. Thanks to Peter Dillinger for suggesting and
collaborating on this addition.

It took nearly six hours, but on Sunday, April 14 of 2013, the Stetson lacrosse team (1-13, 1-2) earned the first victory in program history, defeating Kennesaw State (1-8, 1-2) by a score of 19-7 at the Stetson Athletics Training Center.
"They played well with each other," Stetson head coach Nicole Moore said of the Hatters. "They played with heart, passion. There wasn't any hesitation in their decision making. We had solid performance across the board from all of our players. It was a definite team effort. It shows the potential and the future of this program."
The lengthy event was due to multiple weather delays, the first of which lasted three hours and 20 minutes. The Hatters thrived under the adverse conditions. Tied 4-4 with 10:03 remaining in the first half when play was halted the first time, Stetson took control following the break.
Freshman Maylis Broderick scored on a free position within a minute of resuming play, and assisted on a goal by freshman Noelle Morabito less than five minutes later. Freshman Danielle Horgan scored on a free position of her own with 2:53 to play to give Stetson a 7-4 lead late in the first half.
Kennesaw State countered with a score of its own, but Stetson ended the half with two more, the first by freshman Mary Kate O'Sullivan and assisted by sophomore Samantha Akl, and the second was another by Broderick.
The Hatters weren't close to done there. In fact, Stetson scored 10 straight goals, beginning with the final two from the first half, to take a commanding 17-5 lead with 13:55 to play in the game. O'Sullivan scored four goals during the run by herself. The 10 goal stretch amounted to more offensive ouput than the Hatters had accumulated in a single game before Sunday.
From there Stetson cruised to the 19-7 victory, but the finish didn't come without its own share of dramatics. The lone senior in this first year program, formerly a member of the Stetson club lacrosse program, Kristina Cicchetti scored the final goal of the game for the Hatters with just 3:03 to play in the contest.
Competing in just her fifth game of the season, and getting her first start on Senior Day, Cicchetti couldn't have been more excited about the whole experience, including the late-game score.
"It was amazing," Cicchetti explained. "This is seriously the best day ever. I'm just so glad that all of our hard work has finally [culminated] with that big W, and it feels so good. It's great."
There were a number of Hatters who contributed to Sunday's big win, but maybe none more than Broderick. The midfielder scored four goals, assisted on two others, picked up an astounding eight ground balls, gathered four draw controls, and caused five turnovers.
Broderick has now scored in six straight games, and 10 out of Stetson's last 11 contests. The freshman has totaled nine goals in the last three games alone.
It was O'Sullivan who led the team in scoring on Sunday though. The attacker totaled a program-best five goals and added one assist. Freshman Paige Levesque and Horgan chipped in with three goals apiece. Akl led the team with four assists on the night.
Freshman Caili Guilday played the entire game in the goal for Stetson, recording six saves while allowing only seven goals, a season-best for the Hatters. Kennesaw State's Beth Cochran also stopped six shots in all 60 minutes.
Stetson outshot the Owls 28-17, picked up 22 ground balls to KSU's 13, and was a perfect 14-for-14 on clear attempts. The Hatters also took advantage of their free positions, going 6-for-9 on the night. Kennesaw was only 2-for-5 in the category, and just 6-for-17 on clear attempts.
The Hatters will attempt to use this first ever victory as momentum when they travel to Howard for an Atlantic Sun Conference contest next weekend. Stetson takes on the Bison Friday at 5:00 p.m. in Washington, D.C.

so, I am engaged now. my fiance and I live in san diego. every member of both of our families live back in the maryland area.
we have a few awesome beach locations for our wedding if we do it in cali. but I am looking for beautiful coastal wedding sites from as far north as md or jersey and as far south as wilmington area.
obx seems to rugged and lacks emenities. oc md is ok; but I have yet to see a really nice wedding location.
assateque and chincotegue are options, but again;that would be out in the middle of nowhere.
any suggestions? I think wilmington has a few good options, but I've never been. it is a possible relocation site for us eventually, but for now, we don't know much about the coast down there.

This is an open surgery of the abdomen to view the organs and tissue inside.
Reasons for Procedure
This procedure is done to evaluate problems in the abdomen.
Problems that may need to be examined with an exploratory laparotomy include:
- A hole in the bowel wall
- Ectopic pregnancy—pregnancy outside of the uterus
- Endometriosis
- Appendicitis
- Damage to an organ from trauma
- Infection in the abdomen
The procedure may also be done to stage cancer or to biopsy the area.
Possible Complications
Problems from the procedure are rare, but all procedures have some risk. Your doctor will review potential problems, like:
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Blood clots
- Damage to organs
- Hernia formation
- Large scars
- Reaction to the anesthesia
Before your procedure, talk to your doctor about ways to manage factors that may increase your risk of complications such as:
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Leading up to your procedure:
Your doctor may perform the following:
- Physical exam
- Blood and urine tests
- Imaging tests, such as ultrasound , CT scan , and MRI scan
- Talk to your doctor about your medications. If your surgery was not done as emergency treatment, you may be asked to stop taking some medications up to one week before the procedure.
- Arrange for a ride home.
- The night before, eat a light meal. Unless told otherwise by your doctor, do not eat or drink anything after midnight.
You may be given:
- General anesthesia—you will be asleep through the procedure (most common)
- Spinal anesthesia—the area from the chest down to the legs is numbed
Description of the Procedure
A long incision will be made in the skin on your abdomen. The organs will be examined for disease. The doctor may take a biopsy . If the problem is something that can be repaired or removed, it will be done at this time. The opening will be closed using staples or stitches.
How Long Will It Take?
About 1-4 hours
How Much Will It Hurt?
Anesthesia will prevent pain during surgery. Pain and discomfort after the procedure can be managed with medications.
Average Hospital Stay
You will be in the hospital several days. If you have problems, you may need to stay longer.
Post-procedure Care
- You may need to wear special socks or boots to help prevent blood clots.
- You may have a foley catheter for a short time to help you urinate.
- You may use an incentive spirometer to help you breathe deeply.
- Your bowels will work more slowly than usual. Chewing gum may help speed the process of your bowel function returning to normal.
During your stay, the hospital staff will take steps to reduce your chance of infection, such as:
- Washing their hands
- Wearing gloves or masks
- Keeping your incisions covered
There are also steps you can take to reduce your chance of infection, such as:
- Washing your hands often and reminding your healthcare providers to do the same
- Reminding your healthcare providers to wear gloves or masks
- Not allowing others to touch your incision
It may take several weeks for you to recover. Your activities will be restricted for the first couple of weeks. Once cleared by your doctor, you can slowly resume normal activity. You may be given a prescription to help with any remaining discomfort. Follow the wound care instructions to prevent infection.
Call Your Doctor
It is important for you to monitor your recovery after you leave the hospital. Alert your doctor to any problems right away. If any of the following occur, call your doctor:
- Fever or chills
- Redness, swelling, increasing pain, excessive bleeding, or any discharge from the incision site
- Increasing pain or pain that does not go away
- Your abdomen becomes swollen or hard to the touch
- Diarrhea or constipation that lasts more than 3 days
- Bright red or dark black stools
- Lightheadedness or fainting
- Nausea and vomiting
- Cough, shortness of breath, or chest pain
- Pain or difficulty with urination
- Swelling, redness, or pain in your leg
If you think you have an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Home Office Ergonomics
You already have an ergonomic set up at your work office where you spend the majority of your time, so do you really need to have your home office ergonomically equipped too? Most would probably speculate no, especially for those that spend little time in their home office except for the occasional few hours after work or on the weekend. Outfitting your home office with proper ergonomic equipment is just as important as your work set up at your job, particularly for those who work from home. When you are at work, you may have little say in regards to which office chair you get to use and what office furniture gets purchased. However, at your house, you are the boss of your office furniture, and therefor get the freedom to determine exactly what you want and need in your home office. With this freedom, you can ultimately decide what you want and need in order to make working at home a pleasant and pain-free experience.
- ergonomic office chair that is fully adjustable to meet your body's needs and keep you sitting pain-free. The Office Chair - Perhaps the most critical piece of office furniture in any work environment is an office chair; the most used piece of furniture that can greatly contribute to your overall comfort. If you only use your home office chair for a few hours a day, you will want to make sure that your chair is comfortable and has at least a little bit of adjustability. Ideally you will want a chair that has seat height adjustment, reclining capabilities(typically known as tilt lock and tilt control), and some level of lumbar support for your lower back. If you work from home or use your home office chair for more than a few hours a day, you will want an
- keyboard tray is a beneficial ergonomic accessory useful in any office environment where hours of typing at a desk is required, whether you are at work or at home. The Keyboard - Ever experience aches and pains in your wrists or forearms while typing? This is the result of a poorly positioned keyboard and can lead to serious health injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome if not addressed. Your computer's keyboard should not be placed on top of your desk as this will cause strain to your wrists. It is best to have a keyboard tray installed underneath your desk as this allows for the most natural typing position with your shoulders rested and arms in a comfortable position. A
- monitor arm which allows for quick and easy adjustment. Most monitor arms are designed to fit any monitor of any size and come with an easy to install clamp or mount that does not cause any damage to your desk. If you use a laptop in your home office, consider purchasing a laptop dock to avoid neck pain from tilting your head down to read your computer screen. The Computer Monitor - Your computer monitor should be properly adjusted so that the top of the monitor is at eye level or slightly below. You should not have to look up at the monitor because this will put strain on your neck and upper back. An easy way to properly position your computer monitor with minimal effort is with a
- footrest is a necessary addition for any office where your feet can not be firmly placed on the floor when sitting in your office chair. This may be the case if your desk height is higher than normal or if you are a shorter individual whose chair can not be adjusted low enough. A footrest is also a nice office accessory to have if you want to rest your feet or have something to prop them up on when reclining in your chair. While you may not find a footrest in every office you enter, it is a nice addition to have if you need a break from keeping your feet flat on the floor, especially if you have a movable footrest that encourages movement of the legs to help avoid cramping or stiffness. The Footrest - A
- task light should be placed on your desk close to your computer monitor so that you have proper lighting when looking at your computer screen. Task lights are a relatively inexpensive investment and are an important accessory to have in home offices where the lighting usually is not as adequate as it should be. Task Light - More often than not, the lights in our houses are not adequate for reading especially for long periods of time. Bad lighting can cause eye strain and an uncomfortable work atmosphere. Just as you would have a reading light for your books, a task light is a great office accessory to invest in when working at home. Your
Setting up an ergonomic home office requires minimal effort and time, however it can sometimes be more of an investment than one would hope for. The benefits you will receive from having an ergonomic home office will greatly outweigh the costs by saving you from unnecessary medical ailments that can occur from purchasing cheap office furniture or trying to cut corners in order to save money. Your overall health can be affected from having an improper work set up and can lead to serious medical issues down the road. Your home is where you feel most comfortably so your home office should not be any different.

Webble Active Footrest Review
The Webble Active Footrest is the newest way to relieve your legs and feet while sitting and working for extended periods of time. A new way to make your office even more ergonomically correct, the Webble features 4 wheels beneath a durable frame wrapped in foam and mesh that together create a footrest intended for continual movement.
Available in 3 different color schemes including black mesh/black foam, black mesh/red foam, and silver mesh/black foam. Although it comes with wheels, don't get any idea about skating on the Webble because it comes with a preventive safety lock mechanism to prevent improper usage. The Webble features smooth gliding casters ideal for carpet use.
What we thought:
Fun and innovative. When we first received the Webble, I wasn't sure what to make of it as it looked like a mesh skateboard. However, after trying the Webble out at my desk, after a few weeks I started getting used to the concept of having a footrest that rolled and I'm really starting to enjoy using it on a daily basis. Being 5'2" it's nice to have something to prop my feet up on to ensure I get proper circulation while sitting with my feet flat on the footrest. I have also found that having a footrest that moves and isn't stationary is actually beneficial as it allows me to move around more often instead of feeling cramped by sitting in the same position for 8 hours a day.
The Bad:
Not every product can be perfect, including the Webble which has a couple of drawbacks. The first drawback I've found is the price point; it is understandable many can not afford the Webble starting at $150, however it is also important to keep in mind the benefits of using an active footrest which makes purchasing this product well worth it. The second drawback is that it takes a bit of getting used to, especially if you are accustomed to using a stationary footrest.
The Good:
While the price may seem a bit steep the advantages outweigh the disadvantages by far, making the Webble a worthwhile investment. The Webble has four casters located under its frame that allows you to roll the footrest in any direction. The constant motion is good for your legs because it promotes circulation and eliminates the cramping feeling you may start to feel in your legs from sitting in the same position for too long. The casters also have a locking capability to keep the Webble in place if too much pressure is applied, in order to avoid accidents that could potentially incur from standing or skating on the product.
The overall construction of the Webble is also a force to be reckoned with. The mesh used to cover the top of the Webble is virtually indestructible as I found found after using it for months now. I've dug my heel into the Webble countless times, work stilettos and placed the heel on top of the mesh with firm pressure, and it has been knocked around a bit since arriving in our office. I've seen quite a few different brands of footrests break after a few months of usage or if too much pressure is applied when sitting, but after using the Webble I would confidently say this product will last for years of usage.
If anything, it will be a fun addition to have in any office. Not only will you be the talk of the office, but you'll also be the first (presumably) to have the coolest new ergonomic device in your workplace. Just don't let your co-workers mistake it for a skateboard!
4/5 Chairs
Overall, this footrest is worth having, especially if you experience pain in your legs from sitting in the same position on a regular basis or if you are a shorter individual and would like to have something to prop your feet up on, like myself. The only downside is the cost, but it may be worth the investment considering the chance you may have to replace cheaper footrests much more often than you'd have to replace a Webble with its solid quality construction.
The Webble was even featured in Spirit Magazine December 2010 issue, found on Southwest Airlines under the business perk of the month section!
The Wrong Ways to Sit in Your Chair
Who would have thought there was a wrong way to sit in an office chair? I guess there is a wrong way to do just about everything, but when it becomes detrimental to your health, that is when a real problem arises. In fact, sitting is harder on your back than standing. Studies have actually proven that sitting in a properly adjusted chair that encourages motion reduces cumulative trauma disorders to nerves, tendons, and the neuromuscular system. I, of all people, am extremely guilty of sitting in my office chair the wrong way, which is a very bad habit I am working on fixing. Over time, I have come up with about 3 strange, bad habit sitting positions I can't seem to shake.
The first is my favorite, which is sitting cross legged/indian style while sitting in my chair. Overtime, I have learned that knee problems can develop from sitting in this position, as comfortable as it. Especially if one sits like this over the span of many years. Although I am still getting back support from my chair, I'm losing blood flow to my legs which can cause them to cramp up. This tends to happen a lot, forcing me to switch to another bad position.
Normally I then switch to putting my feet on a footrest. Now, I know you are thinking, what is wrong with using a footrest? Normally footrests are very effective...except when you are using another chair as a footrest. Footrests are supposed to make it so that your knees are at about a 90 degree angle because this position promotes the best circulation. My legs are completely straight when I use my chair/footrest which promotes VERy bad circulation!
The last bad position I tend to sit in, is with my back far away from my chair, slumped over on my desk. While this does help me read my computer monitor better, it also is causing cumulative trauma to my back. The best solution for this, is increasing the size of the font on the screen you are reading or getting a larger monitor with a monitor arm that will allow you to adjust how close the computer is to your face.
After reviewing all my bad habits, clearly it is time to break them and start sitting better in my office chair. Some tips I learned to prevent myself from sitting incorrectly are get up and move, keep the body in alignment while sitting in an office chair, choose ergonomic office chairs when sitting, and use posture friendly props. It is best to take a break from sitting in an office chair every half an hour or so for a few minutes in order to stretch, stand, or walk. When sitting in an office chair, take advantage of the chairs features. Also if you are sitting in an ergonomic office chair, you are able to adjust the back for lumbar support. Footrests, portable lumbar back supports, or even a small pillow can be used while sitting in an office chair. And of course, posture is important! The proper way to sit in a chair is to keep both feet on the ground, sitting up straight, with your back firmly rested against the seat. Follow this advice and you will be sitting better in no time :)
It's simply not just the office chair...
Well hello again!In the hunt for a good chair for you, one thing most people don't consider is that how they work at the desk means they could be sitting on a rock, for all the good the chair is going to do you.I've seen some rather.... interesting search terms on google- chairs for short, petite chairs, chairs for petite people, chairs for small, chairs for tiny people- you get the point?If you're not that tall, try using a foot rest. The type that move are great, allowing you actually move your legs while seated increase blood flow and reduce pressure points. In fact, had a 5'2" customer in this morning, the second thing I showed her was a foot rest and she was amazed at the difference in how she sat.Think about it, when you're shorter, the weight of your legs is not supported, so they are actually pulling your body out from the back of the chair. When your legs are supported, you end up sitting back into the chair as you're supposed to do. It really does feel good, try it!Here's a picture of the Humanscale foot rest (commercial plug- :-P) available at SitBetter.com
Some like how this rolls easily, but I've found that is not a universal preference. Sitting in a chair with wheels on very thin carpet, floor mat or hardwood floor, some people find themselves actually moving about a bit much.This is not a problem in areas with thicker carpet, since the chair does not tend to move easily.If you feel that may be an issue for you, try this sort. It does not move as easily, and there are little rubber stoppers on the legs to keep it stable, in fact.Again, the main purpose of these is to give the feet a platform on which to support. There are many out there from which to choose, just consider that it's going to help adapt your environment to your body type, which is a far better thing than trying to force your body to adapt to your environment!For more information (of course, another crass commercial plug!), contact me here or at Sitbetter.com!

Shields hunts for elusive win against rolling Indians
Ace looks to get Royals back to .500 against Carrasco, Tribe
With their ace on the mound facing the Indians, the Royals have a chance to get their record back to .500 after a 5-3 victory against the Rays on Sunday. With wins in its last four series, Kansas City has come back from a season-high nine games below .500.
The Royals also have a chance to make a move in the American League Central, where they're behind Cleveland by a half-game (five games back overall). This is the closest they've been to first place after 67 games since 2003, when they were two games behind Minnesota.
James Shields is winless since April 30, but the Royals have won his last three starts as he's given up just five runs in 21 innings. He is 2-6 this season with a 2.79 ERA.
"The only thing that is frustrating for me is that our team hasn't won many games when I've been out there," Shields said before his last start. "The last couple games, we've won when I've been out there, and that is all that matters to me."
History shows that Monday's opponent may not be the best opportunity for a victory though, as Shields is 1-5 with a 3.99 ERA in his career against the Indians.
Shields has gone seven or more innings in all 14 starts this season, and he went seven innings in his last start, giving up seven hits and only two earned runs without a decision.
"Shields pitched his tail off," manager Ned Yost said after the Royals' game against the Tigers. "Seven strong innings [and] they only hit two balls hard off him all day."
The Indians hand the ball to Carlos Carrasco, who is 0-2 with a 15.26 ERA. This will be his first game following a seven-game suspension he received for intentionally throwing at New York's Kevin Youkilis.
Carrasco's last start was on June 8 in Detroit, where he gave up six runs in four innings.
The Royals and Indians split their first series, with Kansas City taking the first two games and Cleveland taking the second two.
Kansas City: Former Rays helping Royals improve
Infielder Elliot Johnson caused trouble for his former teammates with seven hits in the Royals' series with the Rays. He is batting .252 with two home runs and eight RBIs this season.
Johnson was a part of a high-profile trade last season that sent pitchers James Shields and Wade Davis to Kansas City in exchange for four prospects.
All three players from the trade have contributed to the Royals success against the Rays, as Shields won his start earlier in the season, Johnson hit a three-run homer on Thursday and Davis won his start on Sunday.
Cleveland: Kipnis collects 15th stolen base
Indians second baseman Jason Kipnis swiped his 15th stolen base of the season in a 2-0 victory against Washington on Sunday.
Kipnis has 51 stolen bases in his MLB career and ranks fifth in the AL in the category this season. He's only been caught stealing five times this year.
Kipnis is batting .270 with nine homers and 34 RBIs this year.
Worth Noting
• Jeff Francoeur hit a solo home run in the fifth inning, which was only his third of the season. He finished with 20 and 16 in his previous two seasons with the Royals.
• Carlos Santana moved up to third on the team with 30 RBIs with a run-scoring single against Washington.

In the south of France, before World War I, we meet a hard-working well-digger named Pascal Amoretti (Daniel Auteuil), whose wife dies, leaving him with six daughters. A rich Parisian woman becomes impressed by the second oldest, Patricia (Astrid Berges-Frisbey), and pays for her to come to Paris and attend a convent school. At 18, with a cultured Parisian accent and stylish clothes, she returns home to help her father with the girls. Our first glimpse is of her running happily through flowers in a field.
Patricia is all heart, all true, all warm. The more we like her, the more we care. Her father would like her to marry his longtime employee, Felipe (Kad Merad), who is happy enough to go along with the plan but so genial that he would do anything to accommodate his boss. Felipe gets a tiny new car and takes Patricia to town, and there she meets Jacques Mazel (Nicolas Duvauchelle), the dashing son of a local "rich man." By rich is meant that his father owns the general store.
It is love at first sight, but given the temps and the mores, a romance between them would violate class barriers. Still, after Patricia sees Jacques flying his biplane in a little air show, she speaks to him, and he spirits her away on his motorcycle. They both are clearly smitten. All this happens in a charming Provencal countryside, with dusty lanes and rolling hills.
Class differences are all important. Patricia is a good girl, but like many good girls, she becomes pregnant, just as Jacques is called up by the French air force and sent to fly in Africa — literally overnight. Through one of those misunderstandings that are crucial to melodrama, Patricia believes he has left without saying goodbye. When good, simple Felipe offers his hand in marriage, she confesses her condition to him.
Her father erupts. In a scene of great fragility and tension, he dresses all his girls in their Sunday best and presents them to Monsieur and Madame Mazel (Sabine Azema and Jean-Pierre Darroussin), who are unmoved. Jacques' mother is the real problem; she is a dictatorial monster with an almost unnatural love for her son, and believes there is no possibility of the invaluable Mazel genes mixing with the Amorettis' miserable, working-class, well-digging genes.
Daniel Auteuil (you remember him as the busy father in "Cache") makes a rock-solid Pascal. Heavier and more work-worn than we've seen him, he has a face that embodies love and great probity; this is not a man to make hasty decisions or to easily change his mind. Patricia, now described as a "lost girl," is dispatched to live with his sister, where she gives birth to a son.
This story is based on a novel and a 1940 film by Marcel Pagnol, sometimes called "The Dickens of the South" (of France). "The Well Digger's Daughter" not only stars Auteuil but was directed by him, 26 years after he first became a star in two earlier and great films based on works by Marcel Pagnol, "Jean de Florette" and "Manon of the Spring" (1986). "The Well Digger's Daughter" is such a success that Auteuil has already been signed to direct three more Pagnol classics, and I eagerly want to see them.
What he does here, with precise casting, is to depend on the traditional strength of all love stories to make us hope the lovers will overcome the obstacles separating them. When it appears that may actually happen, Patricia's self-respect almost gets in the way. Although single moms were more frowned upon then than now, she refuses to think of herself as a lost girl, or to apologize for her baby boy. That the boy is as cute and burbling as the baby on a Gerber's jar is a great help for her case.
This message came to me from a reader named Peter Svensland. He and a fr...

This course investigates the impact of race and culture on North and South American politics in comparative perspective. Special focus will be on the United States and Brazil. Our starting point will be an interrogation of three the main concepts: politics, culture, and race (and ethnicity). This will involve the examination of topics such as multiculturalism and identity politics. We will also examine theories which attempt to explain American politics in light of race and ethnicity. Among the issues and events to be further discussed in this course will be the public policy, such as race-based affirmative action, and the recent campaign and election of President Barack Obama.

Oscar Blandi Pronto Invisible Volumizing Dry Shampoo Spray
Lisa L.United StatesHairDark BrownDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairYes, It Really Works.This product is well worth the expense. I have naturally dark brown wavy frizzy dry hair that has been keratin treated. I use this product extend the keratin effects and get a couple of additional days between shampoos. I have tried at least five other brands of dry shampoo and cannot use the others. This product really leaves my hair fresh and clean looking without any residue.
I will keep buying this product even though it is quite pricey.

Erica C.Mixed FeelingsI was excited to try this product because I have the powder version and didnt like how I had to be good about rubbing the powder in to make sure it didnt leave white spots in my hair (I have dark brown/black hair). I liked that the product went on clear and also that it was aerosol, allowing for more even coverage...but if I had to choose, I would go with the powder, since functionally it does the job better i.e. covering the oil. The aerosol made my hair feel stiff like I had put on hairspray...whereas the powder, it's just my actual hair with no grease.posted Nov 3, 2011Link to this post
MarieNew YorkHairMedium BrownOily HairMakes My Hair Feel Cleaner For 3 DaysYou have to really massage this into the roots but once you do you will feel after a few minutes when the product dries you roots will feel fuller and your hair feels cleaner. It also lasts for a few days. I even use this when my hair is clean because I like how it lifts my roots. No white residue either. Great product!posted Oct 27, 2011Link to this post
JackieHairBlondeNormal HairColor Treated HairGreat If Your Not Super Oily!I love this dry shampoo! I have long hair and it saves me so much time in the morning. It sprays out a little cold and feels very refreshing. However, I was reading the other reviews that said it didn't work. I wanted to let you all know that this dry shampoo is best for normal to dry hair. IF YOU ARE SUPER OILY PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TRY THE Oscar Blandi PRONTO LOOSE POWDER. The powder absorbs more because it is more concentrated. My sister has super thin hair and had this problem. The pronto loose turns clear when it hits oil so it is just like this spray but absorbs more and is the answer to everyone who said this one did not work.posted Oct 5, 2011Link to this post
PamHairMedium BrownOily HairCurly HairThis Product Saves My Life...I have really curly hair that takes me a long time to straighten. The Oscar Blandi Dry Shampoo adds at least 2 days to my blowout. I absolutley love it.posted Oct 5, 2011Link to this post
KathyHairMedium BrownColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairUselessso far, this stuff is totally useless. I have long, fine hair, on the thinner side, so i need to wash it every day or it will look greasy and scraggly. I don't LIKE to wash it every day b/c it feels healthier to let the natural oils condition my hair once in a while. However, I can't go anywhere in public unless I feel ok looking like a wet rat. I really wanted to like this stuff. It was on the pricier side of dry shampoo sprays, and I read a ton of reviews of this one and others. I spent the money, and I have to say...it's totally useless. I have tried it 3x now, and that ought to be enough to tell that it's not doing ANYTHING but toxifying the air where I spray it. I will try it once more, beyond liberally, to see if spraying the entire bottle in my roots could actually change the greasy look one iota, but I'm not counting on it. Perhaps this is not so good for fine hair?
I reiterate...I really wanted to like this one, especially given the price.posted Sep 24, 2011Link to this post -
JenniferAtlantaHairBlondeNormal HairA DissapointmentMy hair is highlighted. What you would consider a warmer shade of blonde. I bought this dry shampoo due to the high star ratings & that it sprays on "clear" with no white residue. Who wouldn't like that? I have tried many other dry shampoo products. Always searching for a better product. Like many of us, busy days sometimes leave no time to wash & style my hair. Watched the impressive video of the Itaillian stylist demonstrating the use & result of the product. Followed the instructions on the can (shake it well) & also the technique used by the stylist on the video. It has a hairspray type scent. My next day hair looked virtuously the same after using. I was really shocked! Almost like I used a can of air. Completely dismayed how this product could get so many stars. Huge dissapointment & a waste of money. I search on for a dry shampoo that can deliver.posted Sep 23, 2011Link to this post
AleciaHairDark BrownOily HairFine or Thin HairDidn't Live Up To The HypeThis didn't work for me... I have dark hair that is fine & gets oily quick so I was looking for something that would allow me to go an extra day w/out washing my hair. This didn't absorb oil AT ALL in my hair. In fact, it made my hair feel more greasy. It's feels like you are just adding a product to your hair - directly on your roots.. so the outcome just looks gross. I was hoping it would be great b/c a spray on dry shampoo is genius.. unfortunately, I have to return.posted Mar 12, 2011Link to this post
Mireille L.HairDark BrownNormal HairThick or Coarse HairLooks Clean, Feels Like MousseI've always wanted to try a dry shamppo, so when I received the Oscar Blandi Pronto Invisible Volumizing Dry Shampoo Spray, I was quite excited to test it and let you know what I thought. Well... my reaction might be best described as "mixed". I used the dry shampoo in place of a regular one in the morning, already planning to tie my hair back into a ponytail, just in case this didn't work. My hair is dark brown, so when it does get oily, it makes a clear difference in its appearance. As it happens, the Oscar Blandi dry shampoo spray has an unusual effect on my hair.
The directions explain that you hold the can 6to 8 inches away from your head, then spray for good coverage, especially along the scalp and roots of your hair. Close your eyes. Trust me. Once the air is clear, open your eyes and, according to the instructions, let the product dry, then shake out the "excess" product. I didn't see excess product at all, even though I went through nearly half of a 1.4-ounce can. As I brushed out my hair, I realized that it did not feel oily at all, so yes, it will either blot up or hide accumulated oils in your hair. However, it also felt and looked like I'd used mousse or a similar styling product, which I definitely did not want on my hair.
The light and pleasant scent, the lack of residue, and the fairly good results bring this review up to 3 stars, but the added sensation that there was something layered over my hair was unpleasant. If you want a dry shampoo that will make your hair look clean AND add a light styling product effect at the same time, then this is a great choice. If you'd rather use a dry shampoo that leaves your hair feeling completely clean, you may be disappointed with this one.posted Oct 22, 2010Link to this post -
ErinUSHairLight BrownDry HairCurly HairFine or Thin HairPricey, But Worth ItI purchased this product because lately I've been straightening my hair a lot and I don't want to have to restyle it every other day. I do have dry hair so I can't comment on how well this product works for those with oily hair. I have only used one other dry shampoo before and I did not like it because it really dried my hair out and gave it a strange, unnatural texture. With this product, I can spray it on two days after washing my hair and my hair still looks fresh. The best part is that it doesn't look or feel like I've just put a bunch of product into my hair. After using this, I had gone three days without a wash and I got a comment about how nice my hair looked! I also love the fact that it doesn't leave any residue behind. My only complaint is that its kind of expensive, so I just hope I can get plenty of uses out of it. Also, the smell reminds me of lemon Pledge, which I'm not sure if that's good or bad but at least it's very light and not an overwhelming smell. Lastly, I like that it gives my hair a little bit of volume as well. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this shampoo. One final piece of information: I purchased the 5 oz. size and so far I've gotten about nine separate uses out of it, and each use I spray multiple times (roughly 6-8) at the roots. I would suggest this size as the 1.4 oz seems like you would barely get any uses from it. I plan on commenting again after this one is all gone just to give an idea of how long it lasted.posted Oct 21, 2010Link to this post

I agree with you in some of your points. But I disagree with you in the following ones:
1- Yes, I've some (little) tearing in my videos, but I can use HW acceleration with VAAPI (even if it's a bit rudimentary and sometimes doesn't work due to driver updates). And after all, you also have this problem on Windows (although it seems to not happen so frequently).
2- No 3D acceleration?! It might be a problem you have. Most people here doesn't have it. Furthermore, I can play almost all my games in Linux at very acceptable framerates (some even faster than on Windows).
3- No games with Wine?! I can play some DX9 games such as FarCry, Max Payne2 or similar ones without any major glithces. HL2 has some little issues, but mostly of the time works properly (at least for me).
4- Bad Linux support? I think we also have to blame linux kernel dev's because they're always changing the DRM stack.
5- Xorg dev's are also a bit "narrowminded", and sometimes, seem to forget about the existence of proprietary blobs. If they didn't exist, there wouldn't be any multimedia workstations using Linux.
Now, agreeing with you, I'm going to talk about my personal "rants":
1- I don't understand why in (some) older releases, my r600 cards worked properly with UVD DxVA and VAAPI acceleration. Now, I can't get them to work... And I think it's a bad policy if you are really disabling driver features, because not every people buys a new laptop every 3 years (like me, for instance...)
2- I don't know what really is your support (for instance, bug reporting, driver feedback, etc.) for Linux, but it seems, at least, almost negligible. And it's not good to "forget" your users (even if they're just a few).
Finally, I'm going to talk about some "nice" nVidia stories (real facts):
- I've a few colleagues (in my graduation course), that bought laptops with GF9xxx and GF8xxx cards (because of the CUDA support). Guess what?
They were severly affected by design faults in their cards. After the guarantee time ended (in about 3 years), most of their laptops stopped to work. And the fail? nVidia cards. Because the guarantee time expired... you know the rest of the story.
- There are also some problems recently with nVidia. In recent Xorg releases, I've found ATI is catching up compatibility earlier than nVidia counterpart driver. Furthermore, Some recent drivers also caused overheating with nVidia cards.
Btw, I think nVidia is better than ATI at the driver's kernel support, (it seems to be more agnostic to kernel updates) and driver features (the interface seems to be more user-friendly).
So, as I said in the beginning, not everything in nVidia's land is "green"...
And... that's all folks... (Yes, I know, Bugs Bunny )

ENERGY BLOG -- SCOTT SUTTELL Houston's Hilcorp Energy makes big Mahoning County pushBy SCOTT SUTTELL 10:49 am, August 28, 2012
A Houston company, Hilcorp Energy Co., since June has stepped up significantly its pursuit of oil and gas leases in eastern and southern Mahoning County, according to this story from The (Youngstown) Vindicator.
Few political issues are more contentious these days than energy, so industry executives will be watching carefully the developments at this week's Republican National Convention in Tampa and the coming Democratic event in Charlotte. Oil and gas interests "want to know that they are appreciated — and that the tax breaks they enjoy won't be targeted for elimination by a Romney-Ryan White House." Oil and gas companies "are using horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing techniques to extract previously unrecoverable fossil fuels out of tight or dense rock formations across the nation. Some energy analysts say the technological advances mean the U.S. will be blessed with plenty of natural gas for years to come." Advocates for the oil and gas industry advocates "have complained that the Obama administration is 'locking up' valuable resources both on land and offshore." FuelFix.com points out that Interior Department officials dispute that and "say they've taken steps to reduce permitting delays and lawsuits that have stymied onshore development." (In the history of the world, is there any industry that hasn't asked for this?) For decades, FuelFix.com says, "U.S. presidents have been complaining that the nation lacks a comprehensive energy policy and pledging that one will be enacted under their watch. It hasn't happened, but it doesn't stop presidential candidates from delivering that promise on the campaign trail." But now, according to the site, there's broad consensus that the nation needs a true energy strategy, and it needs one fast. Lots of ground to cover
FirstEnergy Corp. of Akron this week named Anne Grealy as executive director of state government affairs, a role in which she will oversee legislative strategies in the company's Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, West Virginia and Maryland service areas.

Fast foods are quick and easy substitutes for home cooking. But fast foods are almost always high in calories, fat, sugar, and salt.
Some restaurants still use hydrogenated vegetable oils for frying. These oils contain trans fats. These fats increase your risk for heart disease. Some cities have banned or are trying to ban the use of these fats.
Now, many restaurants are preparing foods using other types of fat. Some offer low-calorie choices instead.
Even with these changes, it is hard to eat healthy when you eat out often. Many foods are still cooked with a lot of fat. Many restaurants do not offer any lower-fat foods. Large portions also make it easy to overeat. And few restaurants offer many fresh fruits and vegetables.
In general, people with high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease must be very careful about eating fast food.
Knowing the amount of calories, fat, and salt in fast foods can help you eat healthier. Many restaurants now offer information about their food. This information is much like the nutrition labels on the food that you buy. If it is not posted in the restaurant, ask an employee for a copy.
In general, eat at places that offer salads, soups, and vegetables.
With pizza, get less cheese. Also pick low-fat toppings, such as vegetables. You can dab the pizza with a paper napkin to get rid of a lot of the fat from the cheese.
Healthier sandwiches include regular or junior size lean meats. Adding bacon, cheese, or mayo will increase the fat and calories. Ask for vegetables instead. Select whole-grain breads or bagels. Croissants and biscuits have a lot of fat.
If you want a hamburger, get a single meat patty without cheese and sauce. Ask for extra lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. Limit how many French fries you eat. Ketchup has a lot of calories from sugar. Ask if you can, substitute a salad for fries.
Look for meat, chicken, and fish that are roasted, grilled, baked, or broiled. Avoid meats that are breaded or fried. If the dish you order comes with a heavy sauce, ask for it on the side and use just a small amount.
In your salads, avoid high-fat items. Dressing, bacon bits, and shredded cheese all add fat and calories. Choose lettuce and assorted vegetables. Select low-fat or fat-free salad dressings, vinegar, or lemon juice. Ask for salad dressing on the side.
Eat low-fat desserts. A rich dessert can add fun to a well-balanced diet. But eat them only on special occasions.
Order smaller servings when you can. Split some fast-food items to reduce calories and fat. Ask for a "doggy bag." You can also leave the extra food on your plate.
Your food choices can teach your children how to eat healthy, too. Choosing a variety of healthy foods and limiting portion size are key to a healthy diet for anyone.
