High Quality
A high quality shower base. I didn't want to deal with tile and grout on the shower base, but wanted a good quality base. This is heavy and I like the textured bottom to prevent slipping. I ordered this and everything else for a bathroom remodel from Faucet Direct and they were GREAT. I highly recommend them.

Swanstone Corporate Statement
For more than four decades, we have been a quiet leader in the kitchen and bath industry. Our high-quality products have always balanced durability, value and style. Innovation is one of our core values, and we have set a standard with our ability to invent. Now it's time to reinvent.
The Swan Story
For more than 40 years, we've been creating innovative and affordable solid surface products and materials for customers all over the world. It started in 1964, when we introduced the Swan Shell Shower, a doorless, shell-shaped shower that captured the spirit of its time.
The Shell Shower was the first in a long line of original kitchen and bath products from Swan, including the Circle Shower as well as the industry's first non-ceramic tile bathtub wall system.
In 1987, we introduced Swanstone to the world, first with a line of vanity tops and bowls. Swanstone quickly became known for its superior impact strength, heat resistance, and ability to resist scratches and stains. Consumers now had an elegant and durable solid surface material that was also affordable.
Since then, our Swanstone line has expanded to include a wide variety of kitchen sinks, countertops, tub and shower walls, and more. In 1994 we introduced the Swanstone 1/4" sheet program, offering even more flexibility to Swanstone customers. In 1997 we introduced a complete line of Swanstone products for the restaurant industry, including tabletops, countertops, vanity tops, mop service sinks and windowsills.
At Swan, we're committed to a policy of continuous improvement, to providing our customers with the highest quality products and most responsive customer service in the kitchen & bath industry. And we stand behind this commitment with some of the best warranties in the business.
Made in America
The Swan Corporation is headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, with manufacturing facilities in Centralia, Illinois.
We proudly manufacture all products made from these material systems in the USA.

Nice work.
From what little I've read I just see the finality to the current (older) ATI architecture. I watched the ATI commits to the kernel ,what..two years ago not too too long after acquisition. Those 00FF HEX kernel commits that supplied a closed source "docking collar" that made everyone happy but GNU, lol. I think that with all the eXPeriance AMD got from the APU we will finally see what AMD will produce for (superior?) graphics with the newer video and APU chips. And just like 3DFX to Nvidia ATI is offically dead and burried with the latest month worth of silicon gossip. Good or Bad...the APU platform puts nvidia against the wall...intel is already there, if only in the background.
Ah, I see. Thanks for clearing that up, though I really wish this was something that was addressed in the article in the first place.
I think the best way you can spend them opensource-wise, is to ask for some feature and pay somebody who directly works on radeon.
Opposite, if you want to spend money on ego purchases, buy nvidia with proprietary crap. Even if these 10% gains are highly welcomed, they are minority. Unless you want to cry and wine holding your newly purchased amd card over slow and incomplete driver, do not spend money on amd yet.
Michael, it would be quite quite GOOD if you added catalyst reference for at least one of the cards. Just to compare "theoretically possible" with "practically achievable".
That's saved for another article in a week or two... https://twitter.com/michaellarabel/s...47850743754753
Catalyst, more cards, more driver configurations, more page views...

Rox look to further Phils' recent road woes
Nicasio opposes Kendrick in series opener at Coors Field
After losing five straight games, all on the road, the Phillies got a much needed win on Thursday against the Twins in Minnesota.
The Phillies will look to keep that going on Friday as they begin a three-game set against the Rockies at Coors Field to finish off their 10-game road trip.
"I think that we keep going and keep trying to grind it out and then we'll see what kind of players we've got as far as mental toughness and hard-nosed and things like that," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. "You can go a long way sometimes just by wanting to play and playing right."
The Phillies will send Kyle Kendrick, who has a 2.63 ERA on the road this season, to the mound in the series opener. Kendrick allowed three runs in six innings and took a loss in his last appearance against the Brewers.
Ryan Braun and Aramis Ramirez singled to put runners at the corners with no outs in the sixth. Jonathan Lucroy then hit an 0-2 sinker for a double and Carlos Gomez singled up the middle to give the Brewers a 3-1 lead.
"He kind of knew what we were trying to do with him right there," Kendrick said of Lucroy. "He guessed right 0-2. We were trying to get a ground-ball double play, and I missed down. It was down, but he kind of just dropped the head."
Facing Kendrick will be fellow right-hander Juan Nicasio. Though he has not registered a decision since May 30, the Rockies have been victorious in Nicasio's past two starts.
Tossing six innings on Sunday against the Rockies, Nicasio allowed two runs on four hits while striking out seven.
"It's as good as I've seen Juan this year. He was at the bottom of the zone, his good fastball, and he was up to I think 95 or 96 [mph]," Rockies manager Walt Weiss said after the start. "Threw some good changeups today and then the slider, all three were working for him."
Phillies: Ruiz nearing return
Catcher Carlos Ruiz could make his return to the Phillies sometime next week.
He is headed to Triple-A Lehigh Valley to begin a rehab assignment Saturday. He said Thursday he will play there for a couple of games before playing a couple more rehab games next week with Double-A Reading.
If everything goes well, he could be activated as early as June 21 against the Mets at Citizens Bank Park.
Ruiz has been on the disabled list since May 20 with a strained right hamstring.
Rockies: Tulowitzki has broken rib
An MRI on Thursday night revealed that shortstop Troy Tulowitzki has a broken rib on his right side, according to a Major League source.
Tulowitzki incurred the injury while diving for an eighth-inning grounder during a 5-4 loss to the Nationals on Thursday at Coors Field and is expected to miss four to six weeks.
Weiss said after the game that Tulowitzki has been dealing with rib pain recently, and it was exacerbated when he dove for Ian Desmond's infield single. Tulowitzki held onto the ball because he didn't have a play.
Worth noting
• The Phillies called up infielder Michael Martinez and left-handed pitcher Jake Diekman from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Thursday, while infielder Cesar Hernandez and right-handed pitcher Tyler Cloyd were sent down.
• Rockies starter Jeff Francis struck out a season-high eight batters against the Nationals on Thursday. He went six innings, allowed two runs and got a no-decision.

Marathon 'hams' took on vital role after Marathon bombings
Williams and his partner had been dispatching buses to gather up runners along the route — runners who were unable to finish the race and needed transportation into Boston.
"We were able to communicate with the buses on their way into Boston, turn them around, and started to do the sweep in a reverse fashion, up the course and away from Boston," he said. "We were using the units we had available to pick up as many people as we could, get them off the course and bring them to safe locations."
Ham radio enthusiast
"They have a range of about 500 feet, and we're talking about a 26-mile course," he said.
At one point, Williams had to provide directions to a bus driver over the ham radio network.
Last year that number tripled, as more than 3,000 runners had to be transported by the Bus Net to two staging areas in Newton.
A family tradition
Born in Londonderry and raised in Manchester, Williams is completing his junior year at WPI, where he majors in electrical computer engineering.
He also took up the ham radio hobby at an early age. "I was first licensed as an amateur radio operator in my senior year of high school," said the 2011 Trinity grad. "My grandfather and father are also amateur radio operators, so it runs in the family."
"There is this entire community that goes there to help and volunteer," he said, "not just the ham radio operators. Everyone did a good job of staying cool, calm and collected throughout the whole incident, and did what was needed to get people to safety."

Still working through the last few IP issues, probably another 3-4 weeks if I had to guess. In the meantime we have an NDA repository set up so development is proceeding under NDA. The only bad news is that getting the R6xx 3d engine running is turning out to be just as big a pain in open source as it was in closed source. We're bringing in more of the people who were involved in the original R6xx bringup and I'm hoping that will help.
As I understand it bringup on Windows was a bit less of a pain because we had some in-house GPU-specific debugging tools for Windows, but those tools are being ported across to Linux now and we have a beta copy to work with. Other than that, I don't think this is a platform-specific issue -- just that the 6xx virtualizes a lot of the hardware so debugging lockups is more difficult than it is on earlier ASICs. The good news is that there are relatively fewer cases where the chip can lock up.
The bigger problem is that when we have a significantly new ASIC we normally do the initial bringup while the chip is still on the emulator, so if we have a funny lockup we can run the same code in the HW emulator lab and see what is going on inside the chip. The emulator lab is now tied up working on chips for 2009 and 2010, so that's not such an easy option.
The 7xx should be the last generation where we do the open source bringup much later than the closed source bringup, so for future GPU generations we should have a much easier time both with bringup and with obtaining technical information.

Glad to hear it, I've heard about the next gpus to be nicer with linux and was wondering which chip was concerned.
Because judging by the difficulties you (are still facing )faced to produce the r6xx 3D code, I was really wondering if that would really mean being nice hehe.
I wish I could help in anyway.

Now that OpenGL is out, do you have any schedule on supporting it in fglrx?
My question is more a 'support' one: are the devs aware of the "checkerboard of doom" rendering bug on HD38xx and HD48xx (where the image seems OK in the backbuffer, but rendered completely scrambled on-screen), and if yes, can you tell us what causes it and if a bugfix is coming - or if there's a workaround?
On a slightly different topic, and that may have been addressed already, I'm having trouble removing tearing from video playback. What solutions exist? Since using
mplayer -vo gl2
triggers the above bug, forcing OpenGL vsync with that renderer makes things less than optimal. I'm using Catalyst 8.7 (from AMD's website), but the bug was already present in 8.6 (much more grave, as it could lead to complete system freeze).
The 4850 card itself if far more powerful (and faster in 2D mode) than the old GF6600 it replaced, but this checkerboard bug is really souring the buy for me.
I wonder about the "washed out" colour problem when using Xv video output in conjunction to use off TexturedVideo.
Has this been looked into, as I don't find a solution or a bug report anywhere either?
Here is my thread http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12020
There is a link to a older thread in it where they take upp the same issue 2 months back and there was suggested to make a bug report but never was clear if one was made or anything as they seemed to go an just use X11 video output instead and thread died after that.
So was this ever looked into?
I've been struggling to get my ATi V5200 FireGL Mobility card running with fglrx and looking at the ATi driver site, this chipset isn't even listed.
Is this card now a dead end for the fglrx driver?
Is there going to be complete open-source support for older (specifically rv360) cards, that includes TV-Out? I've heard TV-out is a proprietary issue, but I haven't had that confirmed really.

About The Guilt Trip
An inventor named Andy (Seth Rogen) needs to travel across the country to sell a new product. Self-conscious and nerdy around others, Andy worries that he will be unsuccessful with his sales pitches. On the other hand, his mother Joyce (Barbra Streisand) is a confident and straight-talking woman. Widowed for many years, she seems content to bustle along attending Weight Watchers meetings and mixers for senior citizens. When Andy hears the story of her one love who got away, he tracks the man down and decides to reunite the pair, inviting Joyce on his road trip across the U.S. But Andy is used to thousands of miles separating him and his mother, and the trip throws up some humorous situations as well as a chance for both characters to learn more about each other.

The Chamberlain
1000 Westmount Drive, West Hollywood, CA, USA
Neighborhood: West Hollywood
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Deep in the heart of West Hollywood, on a quiet residential street between Sunset and Santa Monica, the Chamberlain is actually quite a bit cooler than it looks. This is no backhanded compliment — in a reversal of what seems to be the standard procedure in Los Angeles, the Chamberlain presents an unassuming public face, and keeps its surprises to itself.
From the outside, this '70s apartment building doesn't attract much attention — though someday this architectural style will be back in fashion, at which time West Hollywood will be its Mecca. Inside, though, it's a different story; rooftop swimming pools, for example, are always in style, especially with panoramic views of LA and the Hollywood Hills, and the lobby sets the tone.
The bedrooms are impressive as well — the interiors are striking, modern-luxe, perhaps more masculine in its blues and greys than some other SoCal boutiques. Each room, improbably enough, comes with a gas fireplace for when the temperature dips below 70, as well as more traditional amenities like flat-screen televisions and DVD players. These rooms are for nesting, little homes away from home — some suites even come with kitchenettes.
Then again the bistro and bar are probably all you'll need, and when you're ready to stretch your legs the Chamberlain is close by to the Sunset Strip as well as the many bars and restaurants of West Hollywood. This one will probably never become the kind of destination hotel that's the center of its own nightlife universe, but for the Chamberlain's guests, that's as it should be — West Hollywood has enough going on as it is, and a stylish place to lay one's head is a welcome addition indeed.
How to get there:
The Chamberlain is a 30-minute drive from Los Angeles International Airport. but the trip can take over 45 minutes in traffic. Valet parking is available for $35 USD per night and $26 USD per night for hybrid vehicles.
Please note: Painting crews are currently working on the exterior of The Chamberlain; work is expected to continue through February, 2015.
- Complimentary upgrade upon hotel check-in, based upon availability
- Complimentary welcome amenity in-room upon arrival (a value of approximately US$15)
- 35% off valet parking (US $26 per night with discount - normally US $40 per night)

What the hotel could do better:
They seemed a little short staffed -- we had to request multiple times to get our bags brought to our room and ultimately ended up running down to get them ourselves as we were pressed for time and needed to change clothes and get to an event.

White House: Information sharing a 'key ingredient' in cyber efforts
Thursday - 1/17/2013, 8:05pm EST
Michael Daniel, special assistant to the President and cybersecurity coordinator
In the minds of many, information security and information sharing would seem to be polar opposites.
But in the White House's new national strategy on information sharing released last month, the two concepts are paired together.
And with good reason, according to Michael Daniel, the White House cybersecurity coordinator. Security and information sharing are "mutually reinforcing," he explained in an interview on the Federal Drive with Tom Temin and Emily Kopp
Information sharing is a" key ingredient" in a comprehensive cybersecurity approach, Daniel said. Just take a look at some of the most pressing cyber challenges faced by the government: Potential threats against critical infrastructure, cyber-enabled economic espionage against U.S. Intellectual property and threats to global Internet freedom.
"It's pretty easy to see how information sharing of threat indicators, intrusion methodologies, data about what's been stolen, supporting the free exchange of ideas — all those things would be really important in our efforts to combat those risks," he said.
Strategy emphasizes collaboration
The strategy is heavy on the concept of collaboration.
The document also promotes the idea of standardization across government, but with "built-in flexibility for evolving mission requirements."
The strategy also highlights streamlining the development of information-sharing agreements and using shared services, including shared-computing models, such as cloud computing.
Daniel said agencies have made progress in becoming more collaborative, particularly recently.
"Really, if you take a look at this strategy, it's really codifying the best practices that have evolved over the last decade and that have really begun to accelerate over the last couple of years," he said. "And it's really designed to leverage all of those capabilities that we've built and apply them ... against the sets of different threats that we face in today's environment.
Strategy not necessarily about technology
But the new strategy doesn't have a lot to say about the specific technologies agencies use to share information and collaborate. And that's also by design.
"It's more about the business processes and the underlying culture that goes into it," Daniel said. "And not so much the specific technology that we're concerned about."
In part that's because of the rapidly evolving nature of technology which complicates the process of codifying a strategy around it.
"What we want is to leverage the best practices both within government and from the private sector," he said. "It's more about expanding and spreading the best practices that are already there than inventing a lot of these things from whole cloth."
The strategy contains three guiding principles:
- Treating information as a national asset. "This really means that it's (not only) something that should be safeguarded and shared as appropriate with other agencies, departments and partners," Daniel said. "But it's something that really has a lot of value and can be valuable when it's actually shared and used appropriately."
- Shared risk management. "Responsible information sharing means that you have to share that risk among a whole bunch of different departments and agencies," he said. "That requires accountability, visibility and automation of information safeguards."
Information should inform decision-making. "Information sharing is not really an end (in and) of itself," Daniel said. "It's really about enabling better decision making." The success of information sharing should be measured by how much it contributed to decision making, he said..
Administration will keep pushing on cyber
While cyber legislation stalled in Congress last term, Daniel said the administration will continue pushing for a comprehensive package of cybersecurity reforms.
And some part of that will have to include information sharing, Daniel said, "because that's just a critical component of any of our cybersecurity efforts."
The administration won't simply wait on Congress, though, Daniel said. The White House has reportedly drafted a executive order detailing how it could use executive authority to improve the government's cyber stance.
"We are also going to look at what we can do on our own," Daniel said, such as sharing threat indicators with the private sector. "This is really something that we'll continue to press forward on with this Congress, and we'll just have to see how it evolves," he added. "But you can be sure that we'll be pressing for it."
Five ways to ensure responsible information sharing
White House draft cyber order promotes voluntary critical infrastructure protections
Obama issues agencies new policies for combating insider threats

WASHINGTON — The mother and uncle of an Aurora movie-theater-shooting victim will attend Tuesday's State of the Union address as guests of Democratic Reps. Ed Perlmutter and Diana DeGette.
Theresa and Dave Hoover, who lost 18-year-old AJ Boik in the July 20 massacre, were planning to be in D.C. anyway with Mayors Against Illegal Guns, when Perlmutter and DeGette extended their extra ticket each to attend the president's annual address.
Since her son's death, Theresa Hoover has tried to get an assault-weapons ban enacted. Proposed legislation has been introduced in the Senate and in the House by Perlmutter.
"It helps," Hoover said. "It's almost healing to try and make a difference and hopefully prevent this from ever happening again. I can't imagine that it wouldn't pass. There is no reason for those assault weapons to be out there. No reason."
It was unclear whether President Barack Obama will introduce the Hoovers in his speech, but Perlmutter said he has submitted their names. "I know the president is very concerned about gun violence, and I think between the terrible event in Aurora, compounded many times over by the carnage at Newtown, he really wants there to be a change in direction," Perlmutter said.
DeGette said in an e-mail, "I will be most proud of joining with my friend Rep. Ed Perlmutter to bring family members of victims of the Aurora shootings to hear firsthand from President Obama his commitment to keeping killing machines out of the hands of those intent on doing harm."

What Factors Should You Consider Before Purchasing a Crib?
All new cribs should meet the federal government mandated standards
- Consider cribs with simple and basic lines with no cutouts or scrollwork in the headboard or footboard
- Consider buying a new crib instead of an old one. Older cribs may not meet the current safety standards, and may have weakened hardware through constant hard use
- Check the space between the crib slats in the specification. The distance between the crib slats should not be more than two inches in width
- Ensure there are no sharp edges or protruding nuts and screws that could be a potential danger to your child
- Purchase a crib mattress along with the crib to ensure they're a perfect match
- Once the crib is ready to be used, practice safe sleeping for your baby. Don't smother your baby with blankets or comforters as he can get easily entangled in them.

Where I Stand; Agenda 21 opponents aren't too late to be heard
Additional General Plan Information Feather Publishing Articles
Plumas County Resources
I enjoyed reading the editorial comments published in the Jan. 30 edition of the local newspapers. They begged the question "Where were the present critiques of the general plan during the last seven years?" which apparently represents the timeframe editors identify under which this document has been in development. I would respectfully correct that timeframe, as it appears the process actually started in 2002.
Regardless, the question posed is really quite easy to answer: Citizens did participate in the "Your town 20/20 meetings" held in various communities in 2002. Note that these "visioning sessions" were conducted by out-of-county facilitators paid for with grant monies. It was never crystal clear to participants in these "townhall style meetings" that the input collected at these visioning sessions was actually laying the foundation for a county general plan update.
These sessions were never billed as "your county general plan 2020." I don't recall the community members indicating or having been given an option during those visioning meetings about whether they were in favor of having the Plumas County General Plan reflect the concepts, vision, language and ideology of Agenda 21/sustainable development, albeit in 2002 those words would have meant little even if they had been presented as an option.
Three years elapsed after these "your town 20/20 meetings" took place, before a Plumas County Planning Commission was even reinstated (2005). The general plan prologue recounts that the planning commission used mail-out surveys during 2006 and 2007 to solicit concerns and opinions of the citizens of the county. All fine and dandy. I think by this time most residents were aware that their responses were in fact being tabulated as an effort to solicit "community buy-in" in development of the general plan.
Yet a full seven years had elapsed since the "your town 20/20" meetings and two years since the mail-in surveys were distributed before the "kick-off" of the general plan update officially began (2009). During that seven-year hiatus one cannot dispute that our local economy and many other basic factors that contribute to the well-being and "future vision" of local citizens had changed dramatically in Plumas County. Regardless, basic planning goals were established and the Board of Supervisors unanimously accepted these general goals.
The recent editorial cites the statistic that 86 total public meetings have been held in the development of this plan. I assume that number encompasses meetings held over the 11 years the general plan has conceptually been in development. That is about 7.5 meetings per year spread across various county agencies. One need look no further than the Plumas County government website to note that in 2012 the planning commission scheduled 23 meetings and ultimately went on to cancel 11 of those meetings … nearly 50 percent. It seems inconceivable that during the heart of the development of the general plan the planning commission had nothing pressing to discuss, no worthy agenda items and elected to cancel 50 percent of scheduled meetings.
But perhaps the most cogent answer to "Where were you the last seven years?" goes right to the basis of our form of government as Americans: We are a republic and have a representative form of government. We do not individually converge on Washington, D.C., or Sacramento every time there is an issue on the table; we rely on our congressional delegates and senators or assemblymen/women to advocate on our behalf. We likewise assumed that the average Plumas County citizen was being adequately represented in the general plan update process by those fellow citizens that had been appointed to serve on the Plumas County Planning Commission. Of note is that none of these planning commission meetings are held during hours that those of us still fortunate enough to have a job in Plumas County are reasonably able to attend.
Only in August 2012 did Indian Valley Citizens for Private Property Rights become aware of what Agenda 21 was and how it was infiltrating county and municipality planning processes clear across our nation via a non-governmental organization known as ICLEI that serves as the local implementation arm of Agenda 21. You will find ICLEI listed as a contributor to the Plumas County greenhouse gas emissions report.
We learned that many states, counties and municipalities across our great nation had passed resolutions condemning the policies of Agenda 21 and forbidding their inclusion in their own local planning processes. The locales closest to us that found it necessary to pass such resolutions and ordinances include Amador County and the city of Colfax. In January 2013 the Republican National Committee included such a resolution in their party platform.
So is this a conspiracy theory? Hardly! This newfound knowledge about Agenda 21 provoked us, mostly out of curiosity, to take a close look at the local document that would guide the planning, zoning and land use in Plumas County for the ensuing 25 – 35 years. Imagine, if you will, our horror to find that this Plumas County General Plan Update was riddled with Agenda 21 language and concepts.
When this was brought to the attention of different public servants of our local Plumas County government the only discussion they want to engage in was about the "process" (we have six years and $600,000 invested). They wanted to avoid discussing the content and quality of the "general plan product" that was ultimately delivered by the contracted planning firms.
The general plan was not written by local Plumas County government. It was "outsourced" to out-of-county firms who specialize in writing general plans … and it is while this document was being written by these contracted firms that we believe the Agenda 21/sustainable development language and concepts were inserted. I do not feel that the Board of Supervisors or the citizen members of the planning commission were in any way complicit or nefarious in infiltrating the general plan with Agenda 21/sustainable development language or policy, and find that they are as surprised and disturbed as they explore the implications of these inclusions as we are.
I also believe that once the document was returned to Plumas County, unless one had a heightened awareness of the "new-speak" words that represent Agenda 21, this language and these concepts would likely passed unnoticed. But none of that changes the fact that we have a document that supports many of the visions and planning goals of Agenda 21/sustainable development. And there is no dispute that these policies erode private property rights.
This is an issue that will affect every citizen in Plumas County — and is a completely non-partisan concern. So are we late coming to the table? Are we too late to have our voices and concerns heard? No, in fact, I think we are just in the nick of time. When our elected county representatives only want to address the process and want to silence our voices on the flawed product that was delivered, it only serves to strengthen our resolve in insisting that the Plumas County General Plan must be scrubbed of every footprint of Agenda 21.

Access to Museum Resources
Fellows at the Museum's Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies have access to extensive resources, including approximately 100 million pages of Holocaust-related archival documentation; the Museum library; oral history, film, photo, art, artifacts, and memoir collections; and a Holocaust survivors and victims database. Many of these sources have not yet been examined by scholars and offer unprecedented opportunities to deepen knowledge about the Holocaust and further advance the field of Holocaust studies.
In addition, fellows have access to the digitized holdings of the International Tracing Service (ITS) relating to the fates of 17.5 million people who were subject to incarceration, forced labor, and displacement as a result of World War II. Over the next several years, the Museum expects the complete receipt of more than 100 million digital images of archival material from the ITS, and we especially encourage proposals from applicants interested in these records.
Work with Holocaust Scholars
Mandel Center fellows work with new and established Holocaust scholars from the United States and abroad, enabling them to test ideas, share research findings, debate methodological or interpretive approaches, and develop comparative frameworks for individual projects. The Mandel Center's weekly fellows meetings and senior seminar programs provide stimulating forums for debate and discussion. Fellows may also participate in the Mandel Center's outreach activities at universities and other academic institutions, both locally and throughout the United States.
In addition to the fellowship competition, each year the United States Holocaust Memorial Council's Academic Committee invites two distinguished scholars in the field of Holocaust studies to take up residency at the Mandel Center as the J. B. and Maurice C. Shapiro Senior Scholar-in-Residence and the Ina Levine Invitational Scholar.
Award details
The Mandel Center awards fellowships-in-residence to candidates working on their dissertations (ABD), postdoctoral researchers, and senior scholars. Because a principle focus of the program is to ensure the development of a new generation of Holocaust scholars, we especially encourage scholars early in their careers to apply. Applicants must be affiliated with an academic and/or research institution when applying for a fellowship. We will also consider immediate post-docs and faculty between appointments.
The specific fellowship and the length of the award are at the Mandel Center's discretion. Individual awards generally range up to eight consecutive months of residency; a minimum of three consecutive months is required. No exceptions are allowed. Fellowships of five months or longer have proven most effective.
Stipends range up to $3,500 per month for the purpose of defraying local housing and other miscellaneous living expenses and are subject to US tax law. Residents of the Washington, DC, metropolitan area receive a reduced stipend of $1,750 per month. Awards include a stipend to offset the cost of direct travel to and from Washington, DC. Residents of the Washington, DC, metropolitan area do not receive a travel stipend.
The Mandel Center is able to provide visa assistance to fellows and their dependents, if necessary. Fellows are responsible for securing their own housing accommodations and health insurance. We do not provide support allowances for accompanying family members.
The Mandel Center provides work space and access to a computer, telephone, facsimile machine, and photocopier. We encourage cost-sharing by home institutions or other relevant organizations to extend the residency of the applicant at the Mandel Center or to make possible additional research at other institutions in the Unites States and abroad.

Got my invite, w00t!
Phoronix: Valve Expands Their Linux Beta Program
In time for those who plan to spend their weekend playing games natively on Linux, Valve Software has expanded their Linux beta program...
Got my invite, w00t!
I got an invite too. But that's not interesting anymore... IMO it's not a closed beta anymore.
I take it that the email saying that I have joined their email list constitutes as an "invite"?
...I installed the client and a few games about a week ago Thanks to Kano's Debian script!
Well currently, it is not perfect but some games run very well. Amnesia: the Dark descent, for exemple.
The client it self, even if it has been made for Ubuntu 32bit, runs quiet well on "my" Debian Wheezy 64bit.
I've also been able to redeem all my Humble Indie bundles which is great.
Ok, there is bugs, crashes and blank screens... but , that's why we all registred for the Beta, no?
For me, the most important thing is that after 13 years, I finaly got rid of "ladose"(French playword for "@|#indows"). Awesome!
So, thanks to Valve and all the people involved in this.
I got my beta email confirmation today too.
+1 Valve
Still waiting and hoping.
Based on my experience with the beta, I fear that many of us who are into gaming will be stuck with Windows for quite a time into the future, unfortunately.
Mostly due to a lack of games and the plain fact that Linux desktop environments are absolutely abysmal in every way. (And I know that everybody insists, "You can just use a different DE!", but people don't seem to realize that they all suck. Bad.)

Merck & Co., Inc., a major pharmaceutical company, is in the process of reviewing and evaluating its personnel policies and practices. Employee interviews revealed that rewards for excellent performance were not adequate: outstanding performers received salary increases that were, in many cases, only marginally better than those given to average performers. In many cases, outstanding performance was not even clearly identified. The objective is to have students wrestle with a common malady of performance appraisal systems: the tendency of managers to assign uniform ratings to employees regardless of performance. Alternative appraisal systems should be suggested and discussed.

Originally, casinos installed slot machines as a diversion for casual gamers. Unlike traditional table games (such as blackjack or craps), slot machines don't require any gambling knowledge, and anyone can get in the game with a very small bet. This idea proved to be a monstrous success -- slot machines eventually moved off the sidelines to become the most popular and the most profitable game in town, bringing in more than 60 percent of the annual gaming profits in the United States. The technology of slot machines has also changed a lot over the years. The classic mechanical designs have been almost completely replaced by computer-controlled machines. But the game has remained the same. The player pulls a handle to rotate a series of reels (typically three) that have pictures printed on them. Winning or losing is determined by which pictures line up with the pay line, a line in the middle of a viewing window. If each reel shows the same winning picture along the pay line, you win (certain single images are sometimes winners as well). The amount you win -- the payout -- depends on which pictures land along the pay line.
In this article, we'll find out what sets the reels in motion in modern slot machines as well as in the old mechanical models. We'll also see what determines the odds of winning on a slot machine and look at some popular variations on the traditional game. The classic slot machine design works on an elaborate configuration of gears and levers. The central element is a metal shaft, which supports the reels. This shaft is connected to a handle mechanism that gets things moving. A braking system brings the spinning reels to a stop, and sensors communicate the position of the reels to the payout system. A coin detector initially registers that a coin has been inserted and unlocks a brake so the handle can move. There are any number of ways to arrange these elements, and manufacturers have tried dozens of approaches over the years, so we'll focus on one representative design. The basic design includes three reels mounted on a central shaft. The central shaft also supports three notched discs, which are connected to the three reels. A second shaft below the central shaft supports a kicker, a piece of metal comprising three paddles. The kicker paddles are lined up so they can push against the notches on the three discs. The second shaft also supports a series of connected stoppers, teeth that lock into the notches on the discs. The kicker and the stoppers are both connected to springs, which hold them in a standby position. The kicker is held in place behind the discs, while the stoppers are held up against the discs, locking them into place. When you pull the handle on a slot machine, these parts do a lot of work. We'll look at exactly what happens.
A series of events takes place after a person pulls the handle on a slot machine. Here's a rundown: The handle rotates a hook mechanism, which grabs hold of the kicker, pulling it forward (toward the player). A catch on the opposite end of the kicker grabs a control cam piece and pivots it forward. This rotates a series of gears connected to the control cam. A spring pulls the control cam back to its original position, but the gear assembly slows it down considerably -- the gears act as a mechanical delay. When the control cam is pivoted forward, it releases a spring-mounted cam plate extending across the back of the machine. The control cam also pulls the stoppers away from the notched discs. As the kicker keeps moving, it pushes the stoppers against several catches on the cam plate. These hold the stoppers in place, so the discs and reels can rotate freely. As the handle continues to move the kicker, the kicker paddles push the discs forward briefly. When the handle is pulled all the way back and the kicker has passed the discs, the bottom of the hook mechanism moves up against a slanted surface. The slant pivots the hook forward, which causes it to release the kicker. The kicker spring jerks the kicker backward at a good speed. The kicker paddles hit the notches on the discs, spinning the reels rapidly. While all of this is happening, the control cam is slowly returning to its original position. When it does return, it pushes the cam plate back, which releases the stoppers. The different catches holding onto the different stoppers are positioned so that the cam plate will release the stoppers one at a time. Each stopper springs forward and locks into a notch, holding the reel in position. From the player's point of view, here's how it looks. The player pulls the handle. There is a clunk, and the three reels start spinning. Then the three reels stop abruptly one at a time, followed by the payout (if necessary). The "stopping one at a time" part builds suspense. If the first reel stops on the jackpot symbol, then you have to wait for the next reel to stop to see if it is a jackpot, and then finally the third. If all three display the right symbol, the player wins. Conventional mechanical slot machines eventually gave rise to electrical machines that worked on similar principles. In an electrical machine, the reels are spun by motors and the stoppers are generally activated by solenoids, but the game basically plays out the same way. Electrical machines have more sophisticated money-handling systems, like those you might find in a vending machine, and flashier light and sound displays.

21 Best Places to Work in Vermont revealed
Vermont Business Magazine and the Vermont Chamber of Commerce announced Wednesday the 21 Best Places to Work in Vermont 2013.
The statewide survey and awards program was created to identify, recognize and honor the best places of employment in Vermont, benefiting the state's economy, its workforce and businesses.
The Best Places to Work in the small company category in alphabetical order:
ASIC North Inc., Farm & Wilderness Foundation, Fuse, Gallagher, Flynn & Company, Heritage Aviation, Hickok & Boardman Financial Planning & Group Benefits, Instrumart, Liquid Measurement Systems, Resource Systems Group, Seventh Generation, Sonnax Industries.
The Best Places to Work in the large company category (150 or more) are: BioTek Instruments, Comcast Cable, Country Home Products, Edward Jones, Entergy Vermont Yankee, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, King Arthur Flour, Merchants Bank, Vermont Energy Investment Corp.
The awards, created in 2006, is presented in partnership with the Society for Human Resource Management, Vermont State Council, Vermont Department of Labor and the Vermont Department of Economic Development and Best Companies Group.
To be considered, companies had to meet the following requirements:
Have at least 15 employees working in Vermont; be a for-profit or not-for-profit business or government entity; be a publicly or privately held business; have a facility in the state; and be in business a minimum of one year.
Companies from across the state entered the two-part process. The first part consisted of evaluating each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, and demographics, which was worth approximately 25 percent of the total evaluation. The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure their experience. This part of the evaluation was worth approximately 75 percent.
The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking. Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process in Vermont and also analyzed the data and used their expertise to determine the final rankings.
The final rankings for each category will be announced at a special awards presentation on April 4, at the ECHO Lake Aquarium and Science Center from 5 to 7:30 p.m.MORE IN This Just InWAITSFIELD An armed robber held up the Northfield Savings Bank on Tuesday afternoon, the second...

Have you ever heard of the virus HIV or an illness called AIDS?
Interviewer instructions
This module is to be administered to all women aged 15-49 years (including woman age 15 and age 49). The purpose of this module is to obtain information to help programme managers and policy makers plan more effective programmes to prevent HIV infection. The questions assess knowledge, attitudes and behaviour related to AIDS transmission, prevention and testing for the virus that causes AIDS. First, questions are asked to estimate the respondent's basic knowledge about HIV transmission and AIDS. This question serves as an introduction and allows us to verify whether a respondent has heard of AIDS. If there is a local term for AIDS, use the local term in addition to 'AIDS'. If a respondent has never heard of the HIV virus or AIDS, go to the next module.

A B line refers to the direction in which a bee flys after gathering nectar. Bees use the sun to navigate their way around and when they are ready to return to the hive they fly in a straight line back. This is why when someone is trying to get to their destination quickly they are said to be "making a B line".
