Researchers found that the largest factor affecting a horse's rideability score was his rider's maximum and average rein tension. A 10 newton (a little over two pounds) rise in rein tension translated to about a half-point drop in rideability scores.

Hello everyone,
I could use some advice on my 4th step. I've talked to my sponsor but I'd like to hear from some other people on how they see it.
I'm struggling with the part about fears and "Wasn't it because self-reliance failed us?" I could probably just answer "No." to some of them but I think I'd be cheating myself out of learning something from this step. Some of my fears - Sure I can think of how self-reliance had failed me but others I can't. For instance my fear of social situations (Some call it "Social Anxiety"). I can't think of any situations where self reliance has failed me, I just fear that it might.
Anyway. Thanks in advance for any input on this!
Big Matt

Sounds good to me.
CFQ shouldn't be used for PCI Express storage devices. It should be either deadline or noop.
I love my SSD <3
Phoronix: A Proposal To Change The Default I/O Scheduler
A patch was volleyed into the Linux kernel development camp to change the default I/O scheduler for non-SATA disk drives...
Sounds good to me.
CFQ shouldn't be used for PCI Express storage devices. It should be either deadline or noop.
I love my SSD <3
I wonder if IO-scheduler should be a mount option.
Can't the two schedulers coexist in some way? I'm ignorant about that, but it obviously would be the better solution, because penalizing HDD users (which are more than SSD users, not only in the desktop market) sounds like a bad idea.
This will be only for non-SATA drives (pci-e SSD, etc.), so most rotating media should be unaffected.
Shouldn't it say non-ATA, though? That should also exclude SATA, though I guess they could want to include ATA for some reason....
Last edited by Nobu; 04-10-2012 at 07:27 PM. Reason: Added link for example
Is the IO scheduler defined on build time or mount time (or any other criteria I can't think about)? How do I change it if it's not defined at build time?
No, because it is not a feature at the file-system level, also I would imagine the kernel only creates a per-disk queue, rather than a per-partition queue. If it were a mount option, you could get conflicts about what block on the device the kernel should access next. (It would require you write a scheduler to schedule each schedulers access to the block device, which is messy to say the least)
There is a sysFS interface for per-disk schedulers.
echo the name of the scheduler you want into
echo "cfq" > /sys/block/sdb/queue/scheduler
(running cat on that file will tell you the current selection and all valid options)
Make it permanent by adding it to you local level rc or init file.
You can set your default block device scheduler when configuring a custom kernel, or by passing a boot option.
There first is permenant by itself, the second requires editing the grub defaults file.
Last edited by WorBlux; 04-10-2012 at 08:00 PM.
Thanks a lot, WorBlux.
Just start a little program that reads a few sectors across the LBA range. That'll tell you immediately if you have a slowpoke rotating drive or not.
I have to say that cfq io scheduler has become a little bit slower in latest kernel compared to previous releases (using ata rotational disk).
Only recently I discovered bfq io scheduler, and i have to say it gives a nice boost to latency.
Why not planning a benchmark on most used io scheduler (cfq, deadline, bfq) on different disks (sata, ssd, raid..)?

So long gnome and thanks for all the fish.
Another lost user.
There is not a problem with graphics hardware (7-8 years old) . My NVidia 6100 (OGL 2.0, DX9 compliant, proprietary drivers) works fine with Compiz/Unity.
By Removig Fallback Mode, actually Gnome wants to remove and the last remainings of Gnome 2.
While I agree Gnome 3 is a terrible desktop, any desktop that requires three clicks just to bring up applications is terrible in my opinion, definitely designed for a touch screen rather than for the desktop. I do also think you should stop complaining there are alternatives out there no one is forcing you to use it. There is also plenty of support going into the future if you stick to a LTS distro.
Although Gnome3 has its faults I do like that they are trying something new. If you don't innovate you stagnate, and the truth is new users pay attention to the front end. If you keep serving them up non shiny desktops they just think what's this? Its looks old and crappy. Aesthetics are important and for the Linux on the desktop to gain real traction they need to be considered.
And no that argument will never get old, like it or not money drives the major Linux projects. The other ways you can make a difference is promote commercial Linux adoption in your workplace that way the dev's will have more resources to support legacy products and finally the very best way to help is to roll up your sleeves and start coding yourself.
Damnit! Why did they have to drop Fallback Mode?
It was the only thing that kept me still use GNOME.
I have nothing against composited desktops. I used Compiz with Fallback Mode.
It's just that both GNOME Shell and Unity are utterly unusable mess!
You shouldn't attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity, but seriously is GNOME infected with people who are intentionally sabotaging it from the inside?
Linux used to be built by geeks and engineers. Now we have these stupid "UX experts" and idiots who don't want use to be able to have extensions, settings or themes because it "decreases" their "brand presence".
What the fuck?
s/don't/they'll still/ - there, fixed
On the other hand:
They don't seem to be able to maintain the new interface in reasonable quality either...Matthias wrote, "We've come to the conclusion that we can't maintain fallback mode in reasonable quality, and are better off dropping it."
Sure, if I don't like it, I don't have to use it... trouble is I do (sort of) like it. I only take issue with things breaking with EVERY FSCKING POINT RELEASE.
Beaten it into submission by 3.4 with the help of about a dozen of extensions, crude hacks, ancient gods and the sacrifice of a goat by the first light of the new moon? 3.6 will take that all away, and more. You'll get a draggable lockscreen for your customizable icon spacing, the inability of setting [Shift,Ctrl,Alt,Tab,Caps]+[Caps,Tab,Alt,Ctrl,Shift] as a keyboard layout switch for free, and many, many, more... (Built-in bluetooth not recognized may be the fault of the new kernel; didn't yet have the time - and fortunately the need - to check).
Don't get me started on KDE.
They just got Gnome Panel usable in 12.04 now they want to drop it. It's manipulation to make users move to their new product.
Now maybe Gnome 3 will be forked into BFF. "She was once your mate, now she's your BFF"
What a bunch of narsocists!
Remember when Valve was displaying screen shots of Steam running on Linux; That was Gnome Fallback they were using.
There is a reason. Desktop effects cause overhead with development. Especially with OpenGL, you tend to need every cycle devoted to graphics rendering.
I swear the Gnome team is a bunch of f''cking idiots. Last I checked laptops were still being sold without touchscreens more so than they were with.
I just fired up the MATE desktop and the Linux port of Steam seems to play nice, both with and without Compiz effects.

Lace blouse: f21 // polka dot scarf + cargo shorts: Cotton On // Strappy wedges: Calvin Klein // clutch: Marc Jacobs
photos by: asubtleapproach*
I feel like I haven't really dressed for fall, hence this spring-y looking outfit…. this L.A weather doesn't call for any
layering right now so I'm forced to wear light clothes because it's still hot. I won't complain because well…i kinda love it.
Found these perfect military cargo shorts over the weekend and I'm completely obsessed, I also scored some cargo
pants that I'm excited to wear and show you guys! I think If I could, I would wear cargo's everyday, they're soooo
classic and versatile, and I can put together a different look everyday in them, they're THAT dope.
What's your classic piece that you can just wear over and over again?
ps. truly, madly, deeply in love with polka dots, lace + cargos.
Definitely my 3 most favorite things to wear.

New York, NY (Sports Network) - New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, Indianapolis Colts cornerback Cassius Vaughn and Cleveland Browns returner Travis Benjamin were selected as the AFC's top players for Week 14 of the NFL season.
Brady fueled the Patriots' 42-14 demolition of the Houston Texans on Monday night by going 21-of-35 through the air for 296 yards and four touchdowns with no interceptions. The blowout marked the 36th time in his NFL career Brady has thrown at least three TDs in one game, and his 125.4 passer rating was tops in the league.
With the honor, the 13-year veteran surpassed rival Peyton Manning for the most weekly awards with 23.
Vaughn snagged top defensive honors by posting a team-high eight tackles and returning an interception for a touchdown in the Colts' win over Tennessee. Vaughn stepped in front of a Jake Locker pass and stumbled backwards into the end zone to give Indy the lead in the third quarter of a 27-23 victory. The Ole Miss product received his first career weekly honor.
Benjamin became the first Cleveland player to win the special teams award since Josh Cribbs early last season after galloping 93 yards for a punt- return touchdown against Kansas City -- the longest in the AFC this year.

Dramatic images of crumbling roadways, derailed trains and collapsed bridges can be counted on to make the evening news. But the public-sector financial bodies, planning organizations and engineers entrusted with the maintenance and repair of our infrastructure aren't particularly newsworthy -- until something really bad happens. Ensuring that infrastructure gets the attention it needs before those bad things happen is a significant challenge for government.
Given that need to get the public and policy-makers to focus on the state of the crucial systems that underlie our regions, the recently released "2015 State of the Region: Infrastructure Report" by the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments (COG) is remarkable for both its purpose and scope.

On Tuesday, Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel failed to win the majority he needed for reelection. He received just 45.4 percent of the vote -- a far cry from the 55.2 percent he gathered in 2011. He now heads into an April runoff against Cook County commissioner Jesus "Chuy" Garcia. "Not even I, an avid follower of Chicago politics, knew who Chuy Garcia was when he announced his candidacy a few months ago," wrote Politico's Carol Felsenthal. National observers might wonder: How did this happen?
From the outside, Emanuel appeared to have a strong first term. Even as Chicago's murder rate soared, national press coverage of the city and its mayor has been mostly positive. The Financial Times dubbed Emanuel Mayor America. Thomas Friedman wrote a glowing column about Emanuel's agenda in the New York Times. The Brookings Institution hosted him in Washington for a discussion with David Brooks. Emanuel's Chicago has regularly been cited for innovation in the use of technology and data in government.

There's growing evidence that the nature of our contentious debate about climate change in America is shifting. An overwhelming majority of the American public -- including 51 percent of Republicans as well as 91 percent of Democrats -- now supports government action to curb global warming, according to a January poll by The New York Times, Stanford University and Resources for the Future, a nonpartisan environmental research group.
What type of government action the public will support on climate change, of course, needs to be sorted out. Certainly there's reason to believe that such actions will have significant regional differences. States and local governments on the coasts have garnered the majority of media attention, but in Utah there's an interesting climate-action story playing out in Salt Lake City. READ MORE
Challenges to building and maintaining infrastructure vary greatly across our regions. The ongoing drought in California poses a markedly different problem compared to record-setting downpours and flooding in other states. But within regions, there is a different imperative: Given the interdependencies among transportation, water, energy and waste systems, it makes a great deal of sense to formulate planning regionally.
Whether across or within regions, however, one thing doesn't vary: Residents expect government leaders to keep their communities' infrastructure systems operating, and this entails spending a lot of money. In the Pacific Coast region alone, the West Coast Infrastructure Exchange estimates the need to be greater than $1 trillion over the next 30 years. READ MORE
A little over 10 years ago, I began writing a column on state politics. It wasn't a new pursuit; I'd covered state politics here and there as a reporter for National Journal and for political analyst Charlie Cook. But starting a regular column -- initially weekly, then every other week -- was still a leap for me. Now that I've been writing the column for a while, though, I've learned a few things.
Indulge me, but I've pulled together a list of 10 things I've discovered while doing it. In time for the New Year, here they are: READ MORE

Chase Field, site of Tuesday's All-Star Game, and tonight's Futures Game.
PHOENIX — Hello from the Valley of the Sun, where All-Star festivities officially begin tonight with the annual Futures Game. The format has top prospects from the United States facing their counterparts from international locales.
There are two members of the Nationals organization in the game. You know Bryce Harper is here. He's starting in left field and batting third for for Team USA. Right-hander Brad Peacock, meanwhile, is slated to pitch the second inning for the Americans.
I'll have thoughts from both Harper and Peacock, as well as Class AA Harrisburg manager Tony Beasley (who is on the Team USA coaching staff), after the game. In the meantime, check back for in-game updates and please share your own impressions if you're watching at home on ESPN2…

I hear Harper put on an unbelievable show in batting practice, truth?

Kevin Youkilis seems to have nothing to worry about at 3B
- dj in Fl. - Jul 10, 2011 at 10:12 PM
Great pre-game comments from Aaron Boone about the Nats future, and that Rizzo has not ruled out Harper making the team out of ST next year.

Peacock looked good… Harper.. not so much
- Drew8 - Jul 10, 2011 at 10:33 PM
Way to Go Brad Peacock! Beautiful job.Why did the broadcasters and the graphic say Harper is 19?He's 18 — he doesn't turn 19 till Oct. 16.
- NatsLady - Jul 10, 2011 at 10:34 PM
Anon 6:33, agree on both. Announcer said Harper was "overmatched" by pitching at this level.
- CBinDC - Jul 10, 2011 at 10:36 PM
Peacock looked good Harper well better next time but that throw from left was very speedy …..They did say Harper was 19 …..it is ESPN after all
- Anonymous - Jul 10, 2011 at 10:38 PM
Mark.. Keith Law stated the Peacock was best suited for Bullpen… True? I would think the Nats need to develop starters.
- skidge - Jul 10, 2011 at 10:40 PM
Yeah, ESPN correctly said Harper was born in October 1992 but kept saying he was 19. (I'm sensitive to this because he's 6 weeks younger than my 18-yo son, who does not have a 9.9 million dollar contract to do anything…)
- dj in Fl. - Jul 10, 2011 at 10:45 PM
@Annon- Yes they said that, and it is just becuse of his size. Sounds like a good way to start a fight.
- Mark Zuckerman - Jul 10, 2011 at 10:45 PM
Anon: I don't know about that. Peacock talked before the game about how a key to his success this year has been a small tweak that allows him to hide the ball longer. Thinks that's why opponents had more success against him the second and third time around the order in the past. Harrisburg manager Tony Beasley, who's coaching here, also was raving about Peacock's command of three different pitches: fastball, slider, changeup. He showed all three in that Rosario at-bat. Certainly looked like a starter's repertoire to me.
- Will - Jul 10, 2011 at 10:50 PM
Anon 6:38 – Law consistently trashes any Nats prospect not named Strasburg or Harper. I don't put much stock for most ESPN analysts, especially one who went on the radio in spring training to say Espinosa wasn't ready and possibly never would be. If Danny were a Met, Philly, Yankee, or Red Sock, Keith would be leading his ROY campaign.
- Will - Jul 10, 2011 at 10:53 PM
Also love that the guy Law called "the best right handed prospect in baseball" is now in hot water in the third.
- FS - Jul 10, 2011 at 10:58 PM
It is good to see Harper struggle against Teheran who made one spot start in majors this season (right?). Hoping second time will be different I hope.Thanks Mark for providing updates. Adds to the experience.
- FS - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:02 PM
Come on Reds, you already have Votto at 1B. Show some love and trade Yonder to Nats for a bag of balls. :PI am guessing this is the last we see of Harper in this game. Kinda disappointing. Wished he had made an impact on the game.
- CBinDC - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:03 PM
Well start the clearly we made a mistake drafting this guy talk …..Harper is 0 for 2 ohhh no what are we going to do …….LOL …..does he play the whole game ?
- A DC Wonk - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:06 PM
Maybe all those commenters here at NI that are blaming Rizzo for not bringing up Harper already will pipe down a bit?Hope springs eternal . . . But, more importantly, this is great news about Peacock!
- NatsLady - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:06 PM
I really don't have much use for Law. On Baseball Today he went on for about 15 minutes about why the Mariners' reliever was pulled, manager's strategy, etc., and I kept shouting "HE WAS INJURED." Finally, somebody actually looked at the game and noticed that.Then he argued vociferously that Z'nn and not Clipp should have been chosen for the ASG, in fact, NO RELIEVER should be chosen. I don't buy that. The skill sets are different, a sprinter vs. a long-distance runner. You simply don't expect your starter to get three outs without giving up a run in the first inning of every game. You expect that from your closer. On the other hand, his position and mine on Riggs were the same.
- Anonymous - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:07 PM
Lets just hope that Harper hasn't caught the same virus that Werth has!
- NatsLady - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:10 PM
Yeah, why should be bring Harper up to do nothing at the plate, we already got guys like that.
- Drew8 - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:12 PM
Regarding Peacock:Mark, I think there's good fodder for a takeout on the amazing job the Nats minor league system is doing with some of the less-prominent pitching prospects.It's not just Peacock and Milone. Taylor Jordan has a 2.48 ERA at Hagerstown. Daniel Rosenbaum has a 2.76 ERA at Potomac.Going into his start today in Richmond, Harrisburg's Erik Arnesen was 6-1 with a 2.05 ERA.If even one of these guys pans out as major league prospect it's a great credit to folks like Spin Williams and Randy Tomlin.
- JaneB - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:21 PM
It's interesting how much play Harper is getting from the commentators. I hope we all get to see him hit a dinger in the game. Glad Peacock had a 1-2-3 inning. Now, I'm walking away from baseball till Tuesday night. Good thing I have "Praying for Gil Hodges" in hand to read, per the advice of several of you.
- Anonymous - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:27 PM
@Drew8I would love for the Nats to be known as a pitching producing organization. In the post-steroid era, I think the balance has shifted towards pitching and defense. Pitching prospects can be traded for bats as needed in this new (old) paradigm.However, I am worried that MLB is going to muck around with the rules to have fewer 2-0 games though.
- FS - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:29 PM
Right now that Garza trade is looking like Rays ripped Cubs off of any decent minors they had.One of the ESPN guy just said that Harper might play the whole game. Any truth?
- Anonymous - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:37 PM
Mark.. Do the kids that play in this game get to stay for the Allstar Game/Festivities. Might be good for Harper to see the MLB stars.
- Mark Zuckerman - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:39 PM
Anon: Harper said he's leaving tomorrow night and going home to Las Vegas for a couple of days before rejoining Harrisburg for the start of the second half of their season.
- NatsLady - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:45 PM
Well, that was NOT elegant on Harper's part in LF. Announcers not happy with him.
- FS - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:51 PM
well another reason not to promote the kid right now. He has to learn his defensive position. But like Mark noted, impressive arm.
- CBinDC - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:51 PM
I do not care what they are saying that throw was there before the runner on the fly…. impressive in my opinion…..and now Bryce is set up again …on with the show
- CBinDC - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:54 PM
Question I always wonder why some teams have a keyhole and most do not and what purpose is it really
- NatsLady - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:55 PM
It was a long throw, but not on target. Now a weak grounder. Not showing his best stuff.
- FS - Jul 10, 2011 at 11:57 PM
ugh another groundout to first. I hope he has at least one solid hit before game ends.
- Sec 3, My Sofa - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:05 AM
CB, the dirt path from the mound to the plate is ornamental, a "throwback" design feature.
- CBinDC - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:10 AM
Thankz Sec 3 but I still wonder why it was ever a part of baseball diamond in the first place …..all symbols of a diamond included that line …and some still do …so why was it there at all
- Sec 3, My Sofa - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:13 AM
it's probably a holdover from 19th century fields, maybe cricket. in photos from pre-modern baseball, it looks much wider.
- Doc - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:17 AM
Keith Law might consider a career shift to covering the city slow-pitch beer leagues in NY. Eventually, he'll find something that he is good at.Espi should send him a x.c. of his ROY award, with an obscene message attached!
- CBinDC - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:24 AM
Who is the coach with the Nationals hat ?
- NatsLady - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:26 AM
Ooops, Harper K'd on a beautiful pitch to hit.
- Joe Seamhead - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:28 AM
How do you spell, "not ready for prime time?"
- FS - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:28 AM
BTW does this game go in Extras if tied after ninth? Isn't celebrity game scheduled next? So I am assuming not.
- Sec 3, My Sofa - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:29 AM
I don't watch ESPN broadcasts much. Are the announcers usually this lax?
- Sec 3, My Sofa - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:30 AM
FS, if it's tied after 9, they play one more, but that's it.
- NatsLady - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:31 AM
Kid is playing for the Modesto "Nuts" — don't you just love minor-league team names?
- Mark Zuckerman - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:32 AM
CBinDC said…Who is the coach with the Nationals hat?That's Tony Beasley, current manager at Harrisburg and formerly Nats 3B coach in 2006.
- CBinDC - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:33 AM
Thank you Mark
- Sec 3, My Sofa - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:39 AM
CB, Tony Beasly from Harrisburg is coaching for the US side.
- NatsLady - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:41 AM
Boy, that brief interview with Harper was a bust. Mumbling, and no clue (apparently) that he was a bust in this game. Said the right things about his teammates in Harrisburg, but didn't mention how great Peacock was–also his current teammate.
- NatsLady - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:50 AM
Thanks for the updates, Mark. I think that about sums it up, Harper got a taste of good pitching. Peacock is just about major-league ready, looking forward to seeing him here.
- Sec 3, My Sofa - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:56 AM
"So, let's see: Harper goes 0-for-4 with two strikeouts and strands the potential winning run in scoring position … aren't the Nats already paying Jayson Werth a lot of money to do that?"Oooh, Mark brings the snark!Yeah, Harper interviews like an 18-year-old who has been coached to not [mess] up by shooting off his mouth. But 40,000 people didn't pay to hear him talk. He'll be ok.
- Catcher50 - Jul 11, 2011 at 12:57 AM
The path from the plate to the mound is called a keyhole (for obvious reasons). Griffith Stadium had one, as did most parks before the 60s. The reason was that without the advanced irrigation and drainage systems, that area inevitably got worn down, looked terrible and actually could effect the ball game. BTW, if you look at pix of Griffith Stadium, you will see two fungo circles.
- Tony Beasley -- and you spelled it wrong, too - Jul 11, 2011 at 1:01 AM
Too slow, Sofa! You can't scoop Zuckerman!
- Catcher50 - Jul 11, 2011 at 1:05 AM
BTW, I just checked on Google world and looked at Povich Field, which doesn't have a keyhole, and you can see the worn spot from the plate to the mound.
- Wally - Jul 11, 2011 at 1:08 AM
I don't think Law is so bad. He is a pretty hard judge of talent, which causes fans of most teams to have a similar reaction to some of those here, which is 'he hates our prospects'. He certainly cultivates a sarcastic style in his writing, which can be offputting. If I think about it logically, though, the fact that only a reasonably small percentage of prospects turn in to above average major leaguers means Law's skepticism on most prospects is more right than wrong.But that being said, Law is a writer, not a scout. Peacock will be whatever his talent lets him become, not what a writer predicts he will be. FWIW, Law's opinion on Peacock is shared by some others (like Goldstein, I think), while others like Baseball America are more bullish. The concern over whether he is a starter comes down to Beasley's comments: command of his secondary pitches. If you believe he has it, he has a good chance to be a MLB starter. But even if he ultimately is a reliever, that is not so bad, right? I know of one that is going to the ASG. I am pretty excited to see Peacock emerge this year. Like to see him in AAA soon.
- Doc - Jul 11, 2011 at 1:34 AM
@ Catcher50:Thanks for the history lesson on the 'keyhole'. As Johnny Carson used to say, "I did not know that".I think that it looks neat, and is an attractive feature of the diamond.
- NatsLady - Jul 11, 2011 at 1:41 AM
Agree, I don't care if Peacock is a reliever or a starter, I'm NOT with Law in overvaluing starters compared to relievers. You need both to win a ballgame. You find the role that best suits the player and the team. Wally, I'm not down on Law as writer on prospects, I'm no judge in that area and haven't seen the players. Also, I've never read his work, so I can't comment on his style.I am down on him as a commentator on major league games and players, because those I have seen, and I have heard him make mistake after mistake in his commentary.I dread the days Law comes on Baseball Today. I love Mark Simon and really like Karabell, and the other pinch hitters (though it's tough to listen to Jim Bowden, he does have some sensible things to say).l
- Gonat - Jul 11, 2011 at 1:50 AM
8:26 p.m. — …So, let's see: Harper goes 0-for-4 with two strikeouts and strands the potential winning run in scoring position … aren't the Nats already paying Jayson Werth a lot of money to do that?________________________________I am laughing at this and hope Werth doesn't read this at that may piss him off though it really is the truth.Right now I truly believe Harper would be more productive than Werth as those aren't lofty numbers that are hard for a Top Prospect to exceed. .215/.319/.362/.681 with 31 RBIs stinks.

NatsLady said… Agree, I don't care if Peacock is a reliever or a starter, I'm NOT with Law in overvaluing starters compared to relievers. You need both to win a ballgame. You find the role that best suits the player and the team. ___________________________________I agree with you and would add that you have to come to a decision on starter/reliever before your player gets too old.I commend the "new" Royals as they are making decisions quicker with prospects like Aaron Crow and Kelvin Herrera to make them key parts.A team needs both starters/relievers as NatsLady said and I think the Nats didn't help themselves or Detwiler soon enough on deciding on his future. You can still take a reliever like Adam Wainwright and David Price and others and take them from reliever to front of the rotation starter if they have the stuff. Then you got guys like Mock and Chico who can't do either.
- NatsLady - Jul 11, 2011 at 2:21 AM
Yeah, I'm not sure what the eventual story with Detwiler will be. Same with Bally. On the other hand, you look at Clipp, who came up as a starter, and who still throws from the windup, and he wasn't a starter and he wasn't a closer, and what is he— CLARK KENT!!! Fear the Goggles!

Unmo Samidare (五月雨ウンモ, Samidare Unmo) was a jōnin from Kirigakure.
Unmo was known for his animosity against Konohagakure, and therefore, Root deemed him a potential threat to the village. As such, Sai was dispatched to assassinate Unmo.
Unmo was known for his strong feelings against Konohagakure.
Unmo was a man with round eyes and dark marking around his eyes (in the anime, they were more like wide, snake-like eyes). He wears the standard attire of the Kirigakure shinobi inclusive of the village's standard flak jacket and forehead protector that he wore like a bandanna.
Although his abilities remain unknown, Yamato claimed that Unmo wasn't one to be defeated easily.
- Unmo was introduced in Sai's Bingo Book when Yamato was looking at his belongings, with his name on the top-left corner of the page. In the manga, the name was unclear, but was shown in the anime.[1]
- "Samidare" (五月雨) means "early summer rain".

Phillip A. Sharp, a world leader of research in molecular biology and biochemistry and an institute professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has been named winner of the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Herbert Tabor/Journal of Biological Chemistry Lectureship. Sharp will give his award lecture, titled "The Biology of Small RNAs," at 6 p.m. Saturday, April 24, at the 2010 annual meeting in Anaheim, Calif.
Sharp's research interests have centered on the molecular biology of gene expression relevant to cancer and the mechanisms of RNA splicing. His landmark achievement was the discovery of RNA splicing in 1977, for which he shared the 1993 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Richard J. Roberts.
"Phil's work has been characterized by a remarkable creativity— he has literally broken open whole new fields— and also by an equally remarkable track record for training outstanding scientists," said ASBMB President Gregory A. Petsko. "I can personally testify to his willingness to help young colleagues and to the generosity with which he has given his time to numerous good causes. He is a shining example of what a senior scientist should be."
Currently, Sharp has turned his attention to understanding RNA interference, the process by which RNA molecules act as switches to turn genes on and off. This recently discovered phenomenon has revolutionized biology and could potentially generate a new class of therapeutics.
Sharp did his undergraduate studies at Union College in Barbourville, Ky., where he majored in chemistry and mathematics, then completed his Ph.D. in chemistry at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1969, studying under noted physical chemist Victor Bloomfield.
While at the University of Illinois, Sharp read the 1966 volume of the Cold Spring Harbor Symposium on Quantitative Biology, titled "The Genetic Code," and became interested in molecular biology and genetics. He subsequently obtained a postdoctoral fellowship at the California Institute of Technology, where he studied the structure of sex factor and drug resistance plasmids in bacteria. In 1971, Sharp began a second postdoc, studying gene expression at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory under the renowned James D. Watson.

136-page black & white/color 8.5" x 11" softcover • $19.99
New 2013 printing! Ships in Ocbober 2013 (subject to change) — Pre-Order Now
The 17th volume of the comprehensive and multiple award-winning Complete Crumb Comics series — nominated for both 2003 Harvey and Eisner Awards — completes the 1980s and leads into the 1990s. This was a creatively fertile period for Crumb, who had given up the editorial reins of his own legendary Weirdo magazine, allowing him to get back to the proverbial drawing board. Included are Crumb's contributions to Weirdo from this period, as well as work from Whole Earth Review, Zap Comix, Premiere magazine, as well as many other rare gems. Featured are classics including "Cave Wimp" — the story of the first nerd — and "A Short History of America," amongst other Crumb classics. This volume, as with all volumes, includes a new introduction by Crumb as well as a new cover. The Complete Crumb series leaves no stone unturned, publishing everything from Crumb's most well-known comics to little-seen commercial art and rarely-if-ever seen treasures from private collections and the artist's archives.

Lame? Yes, but some of my best friends are lame. What happened? This site crashed a few years back and was rebuilt but it never recovered. The best way to get it going is to contribute and convince others to. There is activity but it's not as chatty as it was. Mostly, folks with problems get some help.
Sorry, just very busy with local things.
I remember when I left there were a bunch of technical issues going on but i figured it would have recoverd by now. I checked in for the first time in a few years and discovered that the posts I was replying to were from 2007. This place needs pared down and cleaned. less categories, more updates, more participation. I will participate if others will join. Until then I guess I will start posting more.
Forums are now passe. Today with these social network things, like facebook, that is. And forums have become a dime a dozen, with the advent of so many different ones to choose from. We even have one at the Librum, but nobody uses it.
There is, in Mothers case, an aspect I suspect you are not aware of. There is history here, the forum, in the past caused some legal issues. Ogden is a commercial entity, and anything that impacts the bottom line is unwanted. While Majere did assist, it was rough for a while there. IMHO, Mother would prefer to see the forum to 'fade away'.
The new software is NOT optimized for dial-up users. I rarely can post a message due to this. This kills most of my participation, and I have no doubt others. Mother has not corrected the issues, showing the desire to let it 'die'.
But good to see you post. I have high speed connection about once a week, so can try to respond, occasionally.
I am still using an 8 year old computer with XP and a dial-up connect speed of 50667 and have not had trouble posting. I was told by a Windows rep that Windows 7 does not like dial-up, but I don't know. For my limited computer use I may be better off using XP again in my next computer. Anybody out there using Windows 7 and dial-up to post here?
As you can tell from my previous post 'WHAT IS WRONG WITH US', I agree with you. I had no idea that forums were passe', tho. I don't tweet or facebook and so, for me, this was still the way to go. Surprised, I am. Participating, I am not. Maybe we let ér die if MEN wants that? Shame, tho.
It was this forum and MEN that helped inspire me to go feral and off the grid. I owe them. But, to be fair, they don't feel as if I do. I offered to write a column for them. No thanks, they said. I offered to write a book for them. No thanks, they said. Heidi suggested they reconsider........'no thanks', they said. Further contact on the subject has not been answered. I guess the affiliation I feel for MEN is not reciprocated. I guess the feeling of belonging (a la the forum) is not wanted. I guess I should just buy the t-shirt and go.
Unrequited love is tough.
So, if I am checking out (and I won't for a month or so), let me bid you all adieu and say that I have enjoyed my time here immensely. I feel as if I have some friends and I hope we remain in touch one way or the other. It was good while it lasted.
THere is alot to consider there. I agree that forums are a dime a dozen. I used to be attached at the hip to this place and then one day i just stopped coming. I didn't figure it was the same with everyone though. JD if mother isn't interested in your writing then forget them. Market it yourself. I for one would be super interested and if you ever want to set up a website I would be happy to help you build it. ( at no cost of course) I think that the way to get the brass to pay attention to the forums is for us to be more participitory. They should be interested in what we say as we are a very active focus group. We talk about what we want to talk about which allows them super in depth access to their target market. If they can't understand that im not surprised. The magazine has been going down for sometime. I have every issue since the first one and I can tell you Im not sure why I even get it anymore. Who cares about Julie-Louise-Dreyfus' multi million dollar "green" home. Whomever is in charge now should take the time to go read the back issues and see where they went wrong. I kind of rambled there but It would be a great loss if you left JD.
Wow! Nice reply. Thanks. I don't deserve it but I'll take it. I suspect that I will still 'leave', tho. Not for any other reason than that the friends I had here don't seem to visit much anymore. I don't blame them. Life goes on. But it is nice, once in awhile, to make the connection again.
Sarah keeps it alive. P-45 keeps it alive and JA - you also just breathed life back into the corpse. DavisonH. Steve. Ad-garden. All the 'ladies'. Paratrooper (nuttier than a fruitcake but still fun). Street (even nuttier) and, of course, the elusive JEM. These people and many more keep me coming back and some have become real-life friends (DavH, P-45, Steve, Sarah) in the sense that we communicate directly now and then rather than wait for the forum.
So, let me make that even more clear - if you want to stay in touch (anyone) then please use the following e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com.
And, as for you, JA - you may just have committed yourself to a deal. I do need a website. I do need someone to 'manage it'. I wouldn't know a server from a waitress, an ISP from a speech impediment. But I do want to write our story. Its not a Hemingwayesque novel-in-the-making, it is just a story. But I'd like to write it. It would be about two lower-to-middle class worker types who raise a family in the burbs but have an adventure streak that keeps on into their late fifties. They used to do neat stuff like live on sailboats and travel and follow their hearts but children and mortgages eventually weighed them down until they couldn't take it anymore. Thankfully the kids were grown and so they ran away to the forest and began a new life of learning to live off-the-grid.
Like I said - no Pullitzer - but interesting enough for me to read it if I wasn't the one writing it.
Want in?
Im in. I will get with you via email soon to set up an Idea. Im sure it is a fascinating story. Reminiscent of "Reports from them thats doin'"
I think the problem is the forum design... actually the design of the entire site. Electronic publishing really gives a more dynamic format to the presentation of information and advertising. But the site isn't really set up well for that.
Hey JD, when you get your book written and are ready to see it in print, try the services at www.Lulu.com. They charge nominal fees for your book, but the buyer pays them, not you, to get it in print form. Plus, you can get whatever royalties you want (just keep it in a low-end ballpark for me, will ya?), even as an E-Book.
BTW, working full time and coming home late doesn't mean I don't still think about this place and all of you. I still daydream. If this forum were to shut down, there's a whole host of terrific information that would or could go out into the poof with it. What a horrid shame!
Ogden Publishing, there is more to the bottom line than the almighty dollar. I read your publications online as often as possible and click on your advertisers, too. Take away TMEN's forums (the REAL "Them Thats Doin'") and you may as well close up the whole caboose.
Keep it real. See ya soon.
Wow... The place is still alive, barely. It's been a while since my last post and I figured "they" had succeeded in running everyone off.
Jeremy, nice to see you again; as well as everyone else. JD, good luck on your story.John, John, Sarah, Pat, Ginger and anyone I missed... hello to you all.
As for me, I've been busy with the job, bees, life, and now chickens. Yep, building a chicken tractor (almost finished now) similar to the style found on catawba coops dot com. I didn't buy the plans, just looked at the photos, read the FAQ and started building. The least I could do is give them their props.
Anyway guys, I thought I would drop in to see who's still posting. Well, gotta run... be cool ya'll.
Well its been just about a year for me....for me I have been doing a little traveling and actually JD been in Vancouver since last September...thought about you a few times.
The forum was wonderful untill they shut down a few years back for a few months and didn't inform any of us of what the heck was going on. It was from that point the forums here died out..folks just scattered and realize there was other things to do.
The nice thing though was through my travels I spent a couple of weeks with Nantinki, wanted to get together with Steve and grandma diane but couldn't but I'm leaving in a month and will try to touch base with them. So I do have gratitude for the forum for meeting some folks. But like I said, since they shut it down for a few months a few years back it just didn't come back.
My two cents

I am away from the enclave, at MCC, begging for the resourses to finish the Librum project. Sad to say, we all need the $$$ to make anything worthwhile.
If you need a platform, there are several who are 'starving' for such content/input. I would offer the one forum at the Librum, but we are not a good match. Shop around. There be sites that want the 'our homesteading story', and some will pay.
Thanks, Sarah, for the support. With you, Ginger and JA, I may have three books sold (except to you guys they would be free). If there is real interest there, I'll do it.
But, perhaps, you could (any of you on this thread ) answer a few questions first............is it our mental, emotional, time-of-life state that is of interest? Is it our amateur, innocence that appeals? Our 'take a chance' attitude? Or is it more the nuts and bolts of it - how to, what to do first, what to do yourself and what to pay-for information that is of interest? Do you want to read a chronology of events or a collection of experiences and anecdotes? Does the area, itself, hold interest? The comparison of lifestyles? What is the story for you?
I, personally, don't know. That is why it hasn't been written. At first it was the angst and pointlessness of the rat race, the boredom of the 'routine', the commute, the TV, the lawn and trying to 'get rich' when I had little interest in it. Then it was the question of living differently, the 'backyard knowledge' of it and the weirdos and eccentrics who talked about it on MEN. Then came the expertise they shared and their sense of community that drew me in. I started to feel a sense of belonging to a disparate and varied group - the MEN forum. I began to add others to this group from salvage yards, junk stores, cabin owners and others who were, in their own way, looking for something different or actively engaged in it in some way - like my propane appliance guy who dreamed of the forest more than I did.
By the time my gorgeous wife's beautiful smile began to fade from the rigours of doing the 'rut' work of daily life in the city, it struck me that I had to change our lives. But I had no idea how. If I knew what I wanted, I would have done it. So, I just explored with MEN and the net and eventually came up with 'building my own house' as some sort of man-thing to do before I die.
And so, we leapt. A leap of faith. A roll of the dice. Sold everything and bought tools. It was encouraged by a growing sense of 'green', an abandoning of the hoped for riches, an appreciation for having our basic health and the fatigue that begins to grow on you after 50. We had a sense of time running out. Me more than Sally but still, we were both feeling our age.
Of course, in retrospect, it was the huge learning curve and the thrill of climbing it that kept us going on despite some interesting challenges. And that learning curve is still going on. And we learned that learning is the spice of life. It is what makes every day interesting again.
So - it is easy to say, "Hey! That is the story!" But I don't think so. I think it has to be more focused. The topic and the content more of a single message around which all the rest flows.
What do you think?
OK, this is a crazy question.....................but.......................how many pages? I could fill a tome if I just kept writing. I could easily write 500 pages. Do people read that much anymore? What do you expect in a book like this one?
I don't know whose opinion you want, but I'll throw in my two cents worth... I would be interested in the human point of view. Stories of success and failure. Feelings, the highs and the lows. I love to listen to the stories that older folks tell, of what they saw and did in their life. They just fascinate me. Like an older gal down the road from me telling me about how they taught the kids in school how to use a telephone. Nobody had phones back then. She told me about the convoys of cars going down the road in the middle of the night, and how her sister would get scared by them. They were the boot leggers, during prohibition. She talked about where folks hid the booze, a lot of times in corn shocks in the fields. And about how a guy delivering mail lost control of his car and hit a corn shock and broke the jugs. To me, to go with just the nuts and bolts, while undoubtedly valuable information, would be dry reading. I would love to read about... your stories.
Thanks, Frosty. I appreciate the comments. I really do.
Truth is, some friends have said the same thing. And I got stories - lots o' stories. Trouble is they are not always connected to one another. Most of them are stand-alone, incidents of an individual nature. I went to 13 different schools before I graduated. Hitched to San Francisco to see the hippies in 1966, lived with three different women before I was 21, lived on a sailboat, worked for government, traveled globally, developed real estate, raced motorcycles professionally, had 30+ street fights after the age of 21 (too many to count before 21) and ended up a mediator and arbitrator. And I have been married for 40 years and have two great kids. And that isn't half of it. Really. Not even half.
I don't want to fill the book with a bunch of anecdotes that have no connection (well, they all have one connection - 'trying to do the right thing') but, really, it would not read well.
I can include that sort of thing as colour and background but what is the book about that gets me to the forest? Is it a story to leave the cul de sac and build your own cabin? Yes. And No. Most people stay in the cul de sac, of course. But some take summer weeks off for decades to build their own cabin. Not a lot different. Are we just extreme cul-de-sac-ers?
Building with one hand while holding the pages open on the latest DIY book is a story. Amateurs smashing their thumbs and putting on roofing upside down - that sort of thing. But that is nuts and bolts stuff, really. Dangerous encounters with propellers, bears, storms and chainsaws is good but, really, for how many pages? Leaving middle class and careers? Done by lots. We all should.
I really appreciate what you said, Frosty. But I need more. Not more content so much as more 'thread', more 'message'. What would someone want to hear about from me?
jd, I would suggest focusing on things that readers are unlikely to find in any other book. For example, I could write about how to build your own earth sheltered home mortgage-free, but that has already been done by Rob Roy far better than I could write it. I could probably write about how to fix things that are not designed to be repaired, but I doubt that there would be a market for it! It sounds like you have a lot to tell that would help others in many ways. Good Luck!

Thanks for the benchmarks. It's good to see a performance boost with gcc 4.7 and newer kernels, even for Ubuntu users.

The letter titled "For the Nordic Record," submitted by Brian Knox and published in the Dec. 23, 2011, edition, contains factual inaccuracies that we would like to address here.
The Town of Mammoth Lakes—not MLTPA—has submitted a Measure R application for a multi-year funding commitment supporting a cooperative effort between the Town and the Inyo National Forest to establish and maintain the Mammoth Lakes Trail System (MLTS).
You could have knocked us over with a feather.
The rumor machine was all about possible layoffs on Mammoth Mountain. People whispered about possible closures of Canyon and Eagle lodges.
Runs were going to close. This winter was a dud. A megaflop – bomb, a dead loss.
Then arrived a memorandum from Rusty Gregory, the CEO of Mammoth Mountain. It was addressed to his skittish employees.
Comparing this thin season (so far) to other dry/drought seasons, Gregory wrote:

i'm the best mayne, i deed it
i took accounting too long ago to remember the formulas for each of those problems, so i'd just end up looking them up. just google each one and follow the steps, it's not hard.
yeah you're right this isn't hard but for some reason the formulas i'm finding don't make any sense according to the information i'm given on the financial report.
example: the formula to find conversion costs is direct labor + overhead costs
im given the number for overhead costs but no number for direct labor.
that's how it is for the other formulas too. seems like i'm not given enough information to answer them
edit: nevermind i am given those two numbers to find that one but for the other formulas i'm given one variable but not the other. i chose a bad example lol
i'm the best mayne, i deed it
you may have to solve for the variable you're missing by using other amounts that you are provided with. i'm sure that every question can be solved with the information provided, it's just a matter of figuring out what you may have to solve first before you can solve the main question.
i'm the best mayne, i deed it
mike dont i need the direct expenses too to find the prime costs? as i was saying to jaded earlier, some of the formulas seem to need numbers that aren't given to me in the financial report.
Formula I have written down is direct materials cost + direct labor cost. You may want to check your textbook or if you have lecture notes because there can be minor differences in equation subtleties.
You's the type of ♥♥♥♥♥ that bags groceries after college. LOL, real talk.
yeah i am. real talk
you know back in my days when we didn't have the internet to ask people to do our homework we went to school early like 6am to meet up with other people to help us with our homework vol get off your lazy ass and figure shit out
these are very easy questions when you boil it down to a mathematical expression it's like addition and division with words.
i'm a sr business analyst this should be a walk in the park kids if you can't figure this out I'd suggest paying more attention in class.
We weren't given notes on that material yet or else I would of never asked. You must be an old ass salty dude. What you need to do is get off these forums. Smh at 40 year olds trynna relive their younger days by going on forums and shit
not quite 40 yet but i'm getting there...just breakin 30 in 2 weeks to be honest. def not a salty dude but certainly don't need anyone telling me what i needs to do. you naive young bucks think i'm trying to relive my younger days? you'd be still flipping magic cards if it wasn't for us old salty ass dudes paving the way for this fashion street cred world you kids live in now. don't dish the hate my dude, you taking 'business accounting' classes because us old salty dudes monetized our hobby and turning this into a proper business.
