Say it isn't so.
After more than a decade of divisive debate over the fate of Mono County's federal Wilderness Study Areaswith no clean solution, the argument comes back again next week.
A Bridgeport community group has put a resolution on the county supervisor's agenda Tuesday that will ask the supervisors to support releasing some of the county — and the nation's — wilderness study areas from the federal protection they now have.
The Mammoth Lakes government tribes gathered Wednesday evening in a Woodstock moment.
If they had held hands and sung "Kumbaya," no one would have been much surprised.
The sit-down was to approve a "Resort Investment Element" – basically an amendment to the town's 2007 General Plan.
Its importance could not be overstated:
"Let's build a Big Top," said community development director Mark Wardlaw to the assembled commissioners.
From the True Love files: Kathy Johnson, the superb (and athletic) cosmetologist at the Profiles Salon, was busy snipping on Tuesday when Bruce Bartlett walked in with a dozen red roses and plopped them on the front desk. Just for the heck of it. …
More True Love: Have there ever been newlyweds as radiant as Teresa Aragon and new hubby Jimmy? The former Miss Brooks and Jimmy hitched on the shores of Convict Lake last weekend. Yay!…
When Matthew Lehman gets a hot idea, he sure doesn't waste much time between "floating" it and kicking it into action.
Mammoth's councilman and Mayor Pro Tem suggested two weeks ago that Mammoth should perhaps devise some sort of "economic stimulus plan."
By Wednesday night's regular Town Council meeting, he had legislation on the table in the form of a plan prepared by the town staff. He also had a list of immediate action items, delivered by letter. Lehman had to be out of town for Wednesday's meeting and so was not present.
Three visitors are presumed dead after plunging over Vernal Fall in Yosemite National Park Tuesday afternoon at approximately 1:30 p.m, bringing the total of water-related deaths to six this year.
Hormiz David, a 22-year-old-male from Manteca, Ninos Yacoub, a 27-year-old-male from Turlock and Ramina Badal, a 21-year-old-female from Modesto, came to the park for a day trip with a group of family and friends.
The bears are romping in the Lakes Basin, reports the Bear Whisperer, but enjoy the cubs while you can. Mortality rate is an astonishing 51 percent, says he. …
Six new wildlife warning signs are up around town, but not on S.R. 203. Caltrans has rules, you know. …
The Fire Department and Chief Brent Harper are marking trees up near The Bluffs in their continuing effort at fire reduction. Homeowners there will get a 75 percent rebate for forest cleanup, he says, and no complaints so far. …
Bill Altaffer, "the world's most traveled man, will present a pair of slide shows at the Mammoth Lakes Library on Thursday night.
The first deals with The Soviet Union's celebration of its defeat of the Axis powers.
The second is about the Pamir Highway and the Aral Seas.
It begins at 7 o'clock. For further information, call 760-934-4777.

The Mono County Board of Supervisors will conduct a special meeting on Tuesday, July 19 at the Crowley Lake Community Center to consider an appeal filed by Incline Partners, LLC, project applicant, on the Mono County Planning Commission's denial of a use permit for the development, operation and maintenance of a wireless telecommunications facility in the community of Crowley Lake:
Southern California Edison will soon be performing maintenance on the electrical system in the areas identified below. In order to perform this work safely, SCE must temporarily interrupt electric service and turn off power. This outage will allow SCE to upgrade aging infrastructure, make needed improvements, and complete other repairs.
This temporary service interruption may cause some inconvenience, and SCE appreciate your understanding as we work to increase system reliability for the future.
A wind energy project proposed for an area north of Benton will be a hard sell, if recent public outcry is any indication.
Two public meetings and a field trip to the proposed test tower sites this past week and a half has done little to calm a skeptical public, even after one of the two proposed projects, the one with the largest potential footprint, was pulled July 5.
OMG the End of the World is at hand: They're re-paving and re-striping the Minaret Village Mall (including Vons!) just in time for Jazz Jubilee. You don't want one of those folks weaving around the parking lot, without stripes, that's for sure. ...
Reinforcing the End of the World concept is that Public Works is doing its duty on Minaret Boulevard, fixing this, smoothing that, and praying that it will hold up for another year. Good luck with that, we say. ...
Forest officials are managing the Lion Fire in the Golden Trout Wilderness on the Sequoia National Forest. This lightning-caused fire was found July 8 at 1:30 p.m., one half mile to the west of Lion Meadow and east of the Little Kern River. Since then it has grown to approximately 200 acres. There are currently no threats to life or property. The Sequoia National Forest is in command of the fire.
One of the wind farm proposals for the Glass Mountains and Benton area was withdrawn last week on July 5, according to Bureau of Land Management officials. EWind Farms Inc. withdrew their wind energy monitoring and project area (24,000 acre) proposal as of July 5, Larry Primosch, the agency's realty specialist, wrote in an email. The agency held a field trip to the proposed wind energy sites this weekend and two public meetings are still scheduled to occur this week.
Outdoor education director for the Valentine Reserve Leslie Dawson said there is still room on the wildflower walk this Wednesday and Friday (July 13 and 15) and on the Forest talk on Thursday, July 14 and on the history talk on July 16.
The Black Bear talk on Tuesday, July 13 is completely full, she said.
Here's more details.
Wildflowers of Valentine Reserve July 13 and 15: (same talk each day) Sherryl Taylor 10:00-12:30 pm; moderately strenuous hike

Gallery: Shell House: Awesome Seaside Home in Japan is Modeled After Mo...
The owners wanted a home that would resemble a shell - physically and structurally.
The flooring in the home is made from rosewood, which is sustainable if sourced from either Bolivia or Brazil, and skylights in the tilted roofs usher in just the right amount of daylight. At night, the home gives off a soft glow with its indirect lighting. All of the plumbing has been centralized, cutting back on materials, and real shells have been built directly into the wall panels. This reduces the need to pay for additional furniture and also maintains the design's continuity.
The triangular windows, in addition to being very attractive, have a structural purpose that enabled the designers to maintain the "shell" theme. Lastly, the exterior deck includes a sliver of gravel that absorbs rainwater runoff. Small and compact, this home has a minuscule carbon footprint, while at the same time doing wonders for the soul.

Do we read the same messages?
I said: AmaroK starts slower than Banshee (and this was shown!). Is it different from the statement of Banshee being faster (faster in playing a 3 minutes song? Will it play it in 2 minutes 30 seconds!?). It use (at least at the time) less memory.
So, it is not unfair, this part, right?
Did I defend Tomboy for memory usage? Or did I defend it as it was an useful application (for people that were not memory conscious), right?
I think exactly in the post, the center part is the most important (because it shows the context of the topic, plus my views) :
This is here, 2 answers earlier of what was told by you:
It looks to me, that what I asked all around the topic was: "I personally found Mono useful, and the FUD that was told about Mono is as equal for Qt/Nokia, or Apple/Clang, wasn't it?" Also, some claims (like the startup time), I tested them and I found them lacking (because people think to Mono as "enterprisey", so all Mono applications are by definition slow), I rembember the Amarok + QtCreator was like 21 seconds, when Banshee and MonoDevelop was like 14-15 seconds.Also, I've wrote things that disagree with Miguel on his page, so taking this into perspective is equal like an alter-ego of Miguel enters on his page to criticize him?!
At the end, my messages were about reasonable thinking, not biases. I honestly don't like KDE look, but I do think that is an amazing piece of software, so I don't write crap about KDE. Also, I don't attack Nokia for its contributions to Qt or KDE (yes Nokia pay developers for KDE project), and I do think that a lot of technologies to Linux bring more choice than fewer. Why you don't attack the opensourceness of Qt that have also a comercial license? Why don't attack LLVM/CLang that "sneak" into a lot of opensource projects?
If you try to see that Java is worse than Mono, please read again, I said: C#/Mono is slower (in raw performance numbers), but is better integrated with desktop (If you know JNI, and you compare with PInvoke, you know what I'm talking about). Also as of the time of writing, can you name some Gnome applications written in Java? Azureus (even is not a Gnome application)!? Eclipse (!?) Really, I don't know any! At least on Gnome at that time was at least a bit different (thanks to Novell): Gnome Do, F-Spot, Banshee, Beagle, Tomboy, MonoDevelop were targetting Gnome/Gtk# by default, not WinForms. Do you know any Java integration to write Gnome applications? Maybe can you point to me to a tutorial how to set Java with Gtk?

- Looks Decent Review by Harry
Design Value Quality Showed all my friends and they thought the red could have matched the color of the sides of the ipod touch more. Like the iPod touch's shiny sides, but overall it looks decent without the case. It looks really nice, but it looks awkward since it isnt as red. Kind of pink actually if you look at it.

Lackey looks to continue rotation's revival
Coming off rough start, Norris looks to bounce back against Red Sox
Victories in late August do not count more than the wins in April, but they sure seem that way.
Just ask the fans sitting on the edge of their seats rooting for the Orioles and the Red Sox in this week's series.
This much is certain: The Red Sox have been in first place or tied for first-place for 125 days this season, and they padded their lead over the Orioles on Tuesday with a 13-2 victory at Fenway Park.
The O's now trail the first-place Red Sox by 6 1/2 games in the American League East. Once again, Boston's starting pitching was outstanding, and the rotation now sports a 2.75 ERA in the Sox's past 13 games.
"It's been one of the constants of this team, and each guy who walked to the mound on this most recent trip not only went deep into the game, but along with what their level of performance showed, we'll need more of it going forward," manager John Farrell said. "We talked about it the other day. We feel like our rotation is going to be, and has been, one of the main keys and a cornerstone for us in how we fare over these last 30 games."
It will be John Lackey's turn come Wednesday. The Red Sox have been shut out five times in Lackey's starts. In his last outing, he fired an eight-inning complete game but lost, 2-0, to the Giants.
"I want to win the game. I didn't come here for ERA. I came here to try to win a championship," Lackey said.
The Orioles will counter with Bud Norris, who turned in his worst start with Baltimore on Friday. The right-hander exited after loading the bases in the fifth against Oakland and was eventually tagged with seven earned runs in the no-decision.
"I'm going to go look at some stuff and kind of figure some things out, but I felt pretty good," Norris said. "Threw the ball really well, but definitely have got to work and figure something out."
Orioles: Jones held hitless by Red Sox
• Adam Jones had hit in 11 straight games against the Red Sox dating back to Sept. 30, 2012, before going 0-for-3 Tuesday. He is still batting .327 with three doubles, three homers, eight runs and nine RBIs in his past 12 games against Boston.
• Manny Machado, who has 44 doubles this season, is on pace for 55, which would be one shy of Brian Roberts' club record set in 2009.
• Chris Davis has 21 home runs against AL East opponents this season.
Red Sox: Pedroia heating up
• Dustin Pedroia is batting .424 with six doubles, a triple, four RBIs and seven runs during his current eight-game hit streak.
• The Red Sox acquired outfielder Quintin Berry from the Kansas City system for right-handed pitcher Clayton Mortensen in a Minor League trade Tuesday.
•Clay Buchholz will make his second rehab appearance Friday and is scheduled to throw about 55 pitches with either Double-A Portland or Triple-A Pawtucket.
Worth noting
• Red Sox slugger David Ortiz is seven hits shy of 2,000 for his career.
• Orioles lead the season series, 6-5, which includes a 4-3 record in Baltimore and 2-2 mark in Boston. The O's have won 15 of the past 23 and 25 of the last 38 games against the Red Sox.
• The Orioles have won all five games Norris has started.

Chapter 10
Samuel anoints Saul to be captain over the Lord's inheritance—Samuel manifests the gift of seership—Saul prophesies among the prophets, and the Lord gives him a new heart—He is chosen king at Mizpeh.
1 Then Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not because the Lord hath
2 When thou art departed from me to day, then thou shalt find two men by Rachel's sepulchre in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say unto thee, The asses which thou wentest to seek are found: and, lo, thy father hath left the care of the asses, and sorroweth for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?
3 Then shalt thou go on forward from thence, and thou shalt come to the plain of Tabor, and there shall meet thee three men going up to God to Beth-el, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a bottle of wine:
4 And they will

12 And one of the same place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is

14 ¶And Saul's uncle said unto him and to his servant, Whither went ye? And he said, To seek the asses: and when we saw that they were no where, we came to Samuel.
15 And Saul's uncle said, Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said unto you.
16 And Saul said unto his uncle, He told us plainly that the asses were found. But of the matter of the kingdom, whereof Samuel spake, he told him not.
17 ¶And Samuel called the people together unto the Lord to Mizpeh;
18 And said unto the children of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all kingdoms, and of them that oppressed you:

I actually like the new theme & wallpaper.
Phoronix: Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Alpha 6
The final alpha release for Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron is now available. Among the features that are available to Ubuntu 8.04 users are Firefox 3 Beta 3, the Vinagre VNC client, PolicyKit, PulseAudio, improved Virtualization capabilities, and even improved memory protection. Ubuntu 8.04 will use the Linux 2.6.24 kernel with X.Org 7.3 and GNOME 2.22.0. Ubuntu 8.04 Alpha 6 is accompanied by new alpha builds for Kubuntu, Kubuntu-KDE4, Edubuntu, Ubuntu JeOS, Xubuntu, Gobuntu, and Ubuntu Studio. The final release of Ubuntu 8.04 is planned for April 24 and it will be an LTS (Long Term Support) release.
I actually like the new theme & wallpaper.
No joke, the desktop image is actually something that stands out from the previous ones in large way. I'm sure this will be something that some people won't like, but I'm impressed so far with the look.
EDIT: I like the updated layout of Rhythmbox as also.

Same here, I really like the new Ubuntu 8.04 theme
Kubuntu's background is ok, but Ubuntu uses Gnome which I dislike. The GUI is maybe ok, but the default keyboard settings are really stupid - especially if you want to use mc with the gnome terminal. Of course I know that these could be changed, but the out-of-the-box experience is pretty bad for console users...
I think it's a kernel issue, because neither a freshly burned Ubuntu disc nor a compiled 2.6.24 kernel is able to load properly on my machine. Both hang on the hardware driver loading part. Don't think it's a problem with the video card either. Anyone with a SB600 (I'm using a 580X AMD board) chip out there that can confirm this for me?
I told the developers already about the problem to disable the amd74xx module - this makes really trouble and is not needed as pata_amd replaces it and is also there. I don't like legacy ide drivers at all, as most of the new pata ones work fine - the via82cxxx is also not needed. What I really dislike about U is that you can tell em everything and they don't do something until you write a bug report in launchpad. Maybe they think if something breaks you can point to the bug and write it was not my idea, it was the other one...

It can be easyly disabled, but you need to install it first because the current initramfs code does not support a blacklist option. Here are 2 examples:
echo blacklist via82cxxx > /etc/modprobe.d/custom-blacklist
echo blacklist amd74xx > /etc/modprobe.d/custom-blacklist
update-initramfs -u
Note: you can not do that with a 2.6.22 kernel, only 2.6.24 has the needed pata driver!

DVP3345VB DVD/VCR Combo
Product Type: |
DVD Player/VCR
I purchased this player to play VHS tapes and DVD's. Then I found out that you could not copy a VHS to DVD, but it was the only thing I was not too happy about. However, it plays all my VHS tapes and DVD's without any problems, which was the initial reason for this purchase.
Setup was relatively easy. Playback of DVD discs is fine. Playback of VHS tapes is "iffy". Most tapes tend to jitter or jump until the tracking is adjusted. Overall, the product does what I bought it for.
Great brand name and nice to be able to play the VHS tapes as well as the DVDs. Player is simple to operate and was hook up was easy.
Working fine right now t've been through several of these combo VCR/DVD players. After a couple of years the tape players usually fail, eat the tapes and then they are goof for the trash. Hoping I will get a longer run out of t his one . Fingers crossed.
very happy with this product if needed would buy another and tell family and friends the price was a good deal
Just what we were looking for at a great price! Hookup was a breeze and size is perfect.
So far this recorder is working pefectly.I would buy another if needed.
Purchased as a Christmas gift. Confident in this brand and sure it was a great purchase.
I received my Philips dvd player/vcr combination promptly. It was easy to install, easy to program, and I am very happy with this product.
works as expected needed initial run time to get tracing for VCR but now works great.

April 25, 2015 - I am very pleased with these earrings. The colors are beautiful and a nice addition to my Summer wardrobe. Wish I could afford the matching necklace.
March 14, 2015 - very dissapointed they were small and hard to see the tree and a bit rough on the back of the earing

February 3, 2015 - Like one of the other reviewers, I too had bought these earrings before and lost one of them. I did not expect the new ones to match the one I already had--but I did expect the two new ones to be the same color. One is green and the other gold, and one is noticeably smaller than the other if they are held side by side. Of course, no one will ever see them side by side. Don't know yet whether I'm going to keep them . . . .

Artisan: DichroDreams
In 2003 Johana Vazques was a single mom in Guadalajara struggling to support five children on her own when she heard about Dichrodreams -- a local enterprise which taught locals the art of dichroic glassmaking. Johana entered the training program and was soon making beautiful jewelry. She began earning a living wage, and her family's future changed forever.
Johana puts it this way: "Through my hard and skilled work I have been able to give food, shelter, education, and medical attention to my five kids. Two of the older ones now work in the company. It has been a world of opportunities for all of us."
Iridescent dichroic glass is made by combining crystal and metal at high heat, an art form that originated in ancient Rome. The artisans of Dichrodreams took the craft a step further by incorporating sterling silver into the mix in 1999, experimenting with new techniques. The result is an exceptional work of art. Today Dichrodreams jewelry is sold in 55 countries, making it a leader in the dichroic glass and silver jewelry industry.

Wherever I go in the world, I want to be quick to listen to differing perspectives and slow to pick sides.
DURING THE BALKAN war of the early '90s, I traveled twice to Bosnia and Croatia. I visited middle-class women whose husbands and sons had been brutally killed. I visited a refugee center filled with people who had lost everything and were at the mercy of any country that would take them in. I visited school children suffering from post-traumatic stress after seeing their parents killed by enemy shells that landed in their homes.
I walked through the rubble of Mostar, where the Friendship Bridge—a massive stone structure named in honor of the many ethnic groups that had crossed it for four centuries—had been bombed and destroyed. In city after city, I saw the destruction of architecture, art, museums—a violent erasure of the cultures that had thrived there.
It was the first time I had seen war up close, and I was shocked by what human beings do to each other.
While I traveled in the Balkans, another war was waged in Rwanda by Hutus against Tutsis—what we now refer to as the Rwandan genocide. Since 2009 I've traveled twice to the Democratic Republic of Congo, where the ethnic battles forged in Rwanda crossed borders and continue to this day. As usual in war, civilians pay the highest price. Subsistence farmers in small villages want only to live in peace, tend their crops, and feed their families. Instead, their crops are burned, wives and daughters are raped, and many become slave labor in Congolese mines that provide minerals for our cell phones and wealth for the violent criminals who control the mines.
Shortly after first visiting Congo, I went to Israel and walked slowly through the halls of Yad Vashem, the Holocaust memorial in Jerusalem. I've walked those horrifying halls numerous times as I've hosted American Christians who want to learn more about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. We can't understand the present without exploring the past, so we visit Yad Vashem. We also meet with Israeli citizens who have lost family and friends to the violence of Palestinian extremists.
And we visit Arab families who lost their homes and lands in 1948 as a result of the founding of the state of Israel. We visit Palestinians in the West Bank who have lived under the harsh realities of Israeli military occupation since 1967. We meet with Israeli human rights activists who advocate on behalf of the desperately poor and marginalized Palestinians of Gaza.
All these meetings are heartbreaking.
I went to college to be a social worker and volunteered for years in ministries that serve the poor. Along the way, I ended up in places of violent conflict where I encountered heartbreaking realities: mothers weeping as they send their sons and daughters into harm's way; civilian men, women, and children killed in indiscriminate crossfire; the infrastructure for essential human services going up in flames. I learned that every good work we do is undone by war. However earnest our acts of compassion and our fight for justice, our efforts will be futile if there is no peace.
Because of this, I am devoting myself to peacemaking. Wherever I go in the world, I want to be quick to listen to differing perspectives and slow to pick sides. I want to do my best to understand complexity and avoid simplistic answers. I want to raise funds for refugees and other victims of violence, and protest—to whatever extent I can—the escalating costs of war.
If I were a pragmatist, I might not bother to do this. But I am a follower of Jesus. As such, I don't think I can do otherwise.

My sponsee of 1.5 years just fired me, and has asked my sponsor to also sponsor him.
I don't know what to think. I am very confused by what my sponsor told me. He said that my AA spiritual foundation is weak. He said that I am arrogant (I think he means spiritually) in that when others have asked me for help I have denied them.
I'm out on an island right now, and cannot bring myself to call him. I cannot believe that I am 100% at fault here.
I believe he is right that perhaps my foundation is weak. But, don't we practice growth rather than perfection. My relationship with him feels like I am always being held to a standard that I can't meet, and then I feel like crap about myself, feel disconnected from my group of AA friends because my actions don't meet with his standard.
If I talk to anyone else or get a second opinion, I am accused of "rallying the troops" in my defense because that's what I WANT to hear. If I question him, I am told that I just can't see it, or he suggests that he is on a higher spiritual plane and I just can't see what he sees (just like when drinking I couldn't see my lifes unmanageability yet it was apparently obvious to everyone else).

Posted February 10, 2013
iippo: Well if youre born lets say in middle of amazon and live your life there without knowing "the Word" (of which ever particular religion) youd still end up in hell? That is one thing I find tiny bit weird. In my opinion, if there's God(s) either he/she/they/it dont mind which ever particular religion you follow or just plain dont care.
I believe we will all be judged for what we do with what we know. Again, your opinion on whether they don't mind or don't care has no bearing on the matter if it happens to be true. iippo: -> Especially when you start to think about the usual "good boys go to heaven and bad boys go to hell" thing - I mean what is good and what is evil in the first place? Depending wether you live 2000bc, year 0 or 2000ad - there are plenty opinions even in the same region and religion, never mind the differences with cultures.
Is it conceivable to you that someone torturing their babies for fun could ever make it off the evil list? If there is an objective moral standard according to God's nature, then our differing opinions matter only as far as they measure up to that standard. On the other hand, if there is no standard, then we have no moral grounds by which to judge torturing their babies as abhorrent. We have our opinion and they have theirs, and if no one has the might to stop them, then they are right. iippo: I understand the need of many people to look for some holy book or prophet to explain them in absolute terms how to do and how not to do, but cant bring myself to believe in it. Too detailed, too singular - should there be some kind of divine über law I highly doubt it could be put in a book or teached by words alone.
Love your neighbors as yourselves. The rest of moral code is more or less just spelling that out. Anyway, I am not totally convinced that the possible God would have any sort of personality or even be self conscious entity. Certainly if that was a case, think what sort of being omnipotent personality would be? The God would propably have to know and sense anything and everything in the universe - that would lead my thoughts on to pretty deterministic path. ...and unbending fate and destiny are something I dont believe - would be damn boring for the God too ;)
The Bible details interactions between God and man, so that would help you to understand His personality. You may be interested in reading about Molinism. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molinism

Arrests made in Rutland area vandalism spree
RUTLAND City police say a vandalism spree that damaged more than 100 vehicles, businesses and homes in the city and surrounding communities during the last few days has been brought to an end.
On Thursday night police arrested Jacob Eells, 18, of West Rutland, Cade Bowen, 17, of Castleton, and Cody Vanguilder, 17, of West Rutland, who police say were responsible for the vandalism estimated to have cost tens of thousands of dollars in damage.
This is the largest act of vandalism in the city that anyone can remember, Rutland Police Chief James Baker said Friday. It represents a serious violation of the moral values of the community, and it targeted some of the most vulnerable residents. We will continue to work to ensure that justice is served for those victims.
The teenagers were charged with multiple counts of unlawful mischief both felony and misdemeanor counts, according to Rutland Police Sgt. John Sly.
But they wont appear in court to answer the charges until Feb. 4 as police continue to investigate cases of vandalism that were still being reported Friday morning.
Were working on tallying the total amount of damage, Sly said.
We need specifics from every victim. Its going to take some legwork to get estimates and do a final tally. Thats why they were cited into court.
Through the evidence of an eyewitness, several surveillance cameras and interviews with the teens, some of whom allegedly confessed to the acts, Sly said police were able to build their case.
In one of the videos police have obtained, a white Buick sedan can be seen stopping in front of a business. A shooter then fires at a glass door and the car drives away, Sly said. The Buick is seen in other videos and was identified by the only witness police have found so far, the sergeant said.
With that evidence, Sly said, police were able to find the vehicles owner the father of one of the suspects. City detectives investigated all three teenagers, he said, and obtained a confession from at least one.
Since 3 a.m. Wednesday, when the first complaints of broken windows were phoned in, city police have responded to more than 100 reports of vandalism involving windows shot out with pellet guns, Sly said.
The number of shootings in Rutland Town and West Rutland, where similar vandalism was reported, is still being tallied, Sly said.
Its horrendous, he said. The number of people adversely impacted by their actions is huge.
As for the reason for the shootings, there was none, Sly said.
There was no specific motive given. There was no targeting of specific individuals. As we suspected, it was purely random acts, he said.
The last report of broken windows due to vandalism was received at the Rutland Police Department at 3:05 p.m. Friday bringing the number of individual cases of vandalism from the spree in the city alone to 111.
Sly said the cases reported Friday were all believed to have occurred before the teens were arrested.
While the shootings have stopped, Sly predicted that city police would remain busy following up with victims and compiling spreadsheets and reports for the incidents.
This is going to keep us busy all weekend, he said.

Actually I think the reviewer in http://www.phoronix.com/vr.php?view=14834 took some assumptions that led to testing the device in the wrong way.
I will not go into many details, since the FAQ on silverstone site has most explanations.
Baseline is that the HDDBoost serve to speed-up a rather slow, high capacity hard disk, with the help of a cheap and small SSD.
To achieve the speedup the SSD is used as a cache for the HDD and the HDD itself is used for writing and for fetching cache misses.
Caching is done in a rather dumb way. The device barely mirrors the first part of the HDD onto the SDD.
Consequently all of the burden is laid onto the user who is responsible for maintaining the disk layout appropriately.
It is indeed a cheap hack meant to breathe a bit more livelihood into an otherwise not-so-snappy hard disk.
It is not a booster for already fast devices as the Phoronix review implied. In fact the device can (and will) act as a bottleneck in such environments.
But let me tell you that under ideal conditions it may indeed give some much needed speed-up and by that I mean that it can improve reads over the HDD alone, by reading cached data from the SSD (which is usually faster than the hdd), and it can also "improve" on the "quality of writes" by writing data to the HDD alone vs also to the SSD, which is deemed to potentially be faster and should also save the user from the limits and hassles of the el'cheapo SSD.
For windows this may indeed provide perceptible improvements, but for linux it can't work well.
They provide no utilities for linux and Linux has no "defrag" Tools, so say hallo to moving data to the cached zone (aka the front of the disk).
Ultimately Phoronix is right. This device is mostly useless on linux. But for completely different reasons.

PaulineHairBlondeNormal HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairNioxin Hair Loss System Really Works!I decided to try the Nioxin line of products based on the reviews by other customers on the site. I have very fine color treated hair so I bought the System 3. I bought the Cleanser, Scalp Therapy, Scalp Activating Treatment and the Boost. I figured I'd do it right. I've been using it now for about two+ months and I really see a difference! I'm so pleased. My hair has filled in and there's hardly any hair in the shower, if any. If I had any hope that it would work, I wish I had a before and after picture to share.
Initially I found the Shampoo and Conditioner drying; my hair felt hard and it was hard to style. But I found a solution for me. After washing my hair and then using the conditioner 'only on my scalp in the areas that needed it', I added my own conditioner over the Nioxin conditioner and it solved the problem.
A good tip is to use the Nioxin products on your scalp and not all over your hair, especially the treatment and boost. It also helps if you are on a budget.
Also, I use the Scalp Activating Treatment every day even if I don't wash my hair. I usually try to wash my hair every other day. And I only use it on the areas of my scalp that need it. I add a few drops of boost several minutes after the treatement.
I started my husband on the same course of treatment and he too sees a big difference as do I. I have to say, we're very pleased with these products.posted Jan 29, 2011Link to this post -

EbonyHairFine or Thin HairIs This Suppose To Make You Lose Hair?I used the products three times and I noticed that my hair was coming out and had gotten extremely thin. Before using the product my hair was normal to course but had some damage form chemical use. I tried this product to correct the chemical damaged that had been done to my hair and after the third use my hair was very thin. I read a review stating that there will be hair lost and that the product has to be used for at least 3 months for results. However I'm kind of nervous to continue because of the thinning. Has this happen to someone? If so can you help?posted May 6, 2010Link to this post
SusanBeaumont, TX, United StatesIt's Helping My Thin HairI am a 48 yo white woman with thin hair. I had a lot of hair until my hysterectomy and then it started falling out by the handfuls. I have tried a dozen "designer" shampoo, conditioner and treatments for hair loss and saw no improvement. My hair stylist suggested I try this. After one small bottle I was losing significantly less hair. It hasn't affected my hair color at all so I will continue to use it and hope I can regain some of my original hair.posted Jan 18, 2010Link to this post
OjaOakland, CaliforniaHairAsianFine or Thin HairIt WorksI am a sixty year old Asian American male with black hair - in the past five years I noticed my hair thinning with my lighter colored scalp showing through and did not like it. My earlier hairdresser recommended Nioxin as several of her male clients got good results so I tried it. After switching hairdressers (for other reasons), my second hair person also recommended Nioxin as well, at which point I had been using it about two months - with 2 independent recommendations I thought I was on to something. Now after about nine months I can see the results, which felt like they started at about four months and really kicked in at six months. I use the Nioxin 3 system because I color my hair with the shampoo, conditioner and leave-in spray treatment. The leave-in product leaves your hair slightly sticky but after awhile that goes away and my hair feels normal. I like the system, its easy to use, my hair feels good and more importantly it looks good. I can see that the hair is dramatically thicker, and I have not experienced any problems with itching or irritation. This is not a product, and I think its marketed correctly as a hair thickener - it does not stop hair loss or bring hair back or anything. I highly recommend this product but give it time to do its stuff!posted Aug 2, 2009Link to this post
Nioxin ManNioxin ManAfter running into Nioxin and using it for over 2 years I can look back at pictures and video of myself and see that I obviously have more hair than I did. I wish I would have started using this early so that I would have even more hair now. I think the key to this product is to use it when you first start to notice your hair loss. That is whemn it is more effective for sure, but I started late and I have still seen great results from it. I always buy from www.hair-product-professional.com they specialize in Nioxin and have the best price I have found so far. If your shopping around you wont find a better price. I usually get my stuff within 2-3 days. I really like System 1, it is the best fix for my hair type. They have at least 8 systems. You can defintely find one for your style of hair. It took me about 2 months before I really started to notice it. It happens so gradually that you dont, but then someone took my picture and I was put it up on my mirror. I noticed right away. Very obvious how much more hair I had. I suggest using this if you are loosing your hair. Stop it now before it is gone and to late.posted Sep 25, 2007Link to this post
Keeping It RealFort Worth Tx.HairAfrican AmericanMedium HairI Heard It Through The GrapevineFirst of all let me tell you that I am glad I was introduced to such a product. My hair started thinning at the ending of last year and yes I am going through the menopause, but I was blessed to receive info of the Nioxin product. I asked my beautician about how to grow back my hair that was thinning in the crown of my head and she showed me a picture of her when her hair was shoulder length. She has long hair past her shoulders. She told me about Nioxin vitamins and the kit. She also told me where to purchase it from, and she begin to explain to me about her hair and her daughters hair of how their hair was coming out.She told me when she used the Nioxin product for at least a month she noticed that her hair was not coming out in the comb and a little length was added. Not only that was good, but as she continued to use it on her dauthers and herself their hair was getting thicker and fuller. I might add I am a witness and can testify to the length and to the fullness of all of their hair. I, myself began to use the Nioxin products and I did just as she said about washing and conditioning my hair plus taking the vitamins once every day (the vitamins give you enery). I must say thanks to a very special person at Traders Secret in the Hulen Mall, and she knows who she is. My hair was falling out as well and had gotten shorter, but I have taken the Nioxin Vits. and is still using the the therapy kit and my hair has grown at least an inch plus in the three months I have used it. I am a woman of color and so is my beautician. Yes, people have noticed my hair and make compliments on it all the time. My hair is not even shoulder length. My hair has always been thin ,but not anymore, my thinning crown is no longer thin, thanks to the scalp therapy. A GREAT BIG THANKS TO YOU NIOXIN FOR MAKING SUCH A PROUDUCT WITHOUT RESPECTER OF PERSONS.posted Aug 22, 2007Link to this post
JoyTraverse City, MIThe Best Out There!!!I love this product. I started to lose my hair after bariatric surgery and now I no longer see big huge piles of hair everywhere. Just beautiful shiny and much fuller hair!!!posted Sep 21, 2006Link to this post
AnonymousJust AwefulI have to admit, I have read good reviews on Nioxin products..but this one is aweful. Over the past 6 years I have noticed my hairloss getting more noticable. Being a 20-something female that is quite devasting. Anyways..I thought I would give this a try, but it made my hair much worse. First of all, it left my hair feeling very greasy-almost like I had more sebum on my scalp. Second of all, it made me shed much more than usual. This stuff is just bad...but on the other hand..I absolutely love the matching conditioner. Maybe if they could formulate this shampoo to be made without sulfates, it would be better.posted Sep 1, 2006Link to this post

August 31, 2012 by KathalePiguenit | Comments Off
I did a dive at an isolated reef about 200 yards outside of Tunnels Beach, called Roi Reef. This reef is 30′ diameter at the top and 60′ diameter at the bottom, surrounded by sand.

Ten years ago, nobody even talked about lighting aircraft cabins with LEDs. Today, not an airplane rolls out of a completion center that isn't LED from nose to tail. The result: illumination that's brighter, lower maintenance, longer lasting and more economical.
