"Erie County Parks Now Smoke-Free"
Is Not Available At This Time.
Erie County Parks Now Smoke-Free
Please enter your comments below.
Look for the right wing to whine and pout.
Ya know, cigarette addiction is just like voting Republican: it's counter-productive and will kill you, you're paying a lot of money to an industry which ruins lives and has no problem lying and lying and lying with compunction, and you're acting directly against your own interests. Look for the right wing to whine and pout.
more government control
This is just another example of the government running our lives. I don't need them to tell me what to do, when to do it and how high to jump. I grew up with a father who smoked, and guess what??!! My brother and I are still alive and don't have lung problems. I have been a smoker for 30 years and my kids are alive and have NO health problems. The government needs to quit telling lies and stay out of our lives. So much for being the land of the free. We aren't free to do anything.
No cars
I Thinks these morons should walk and leave there cars at home due to the fact I have to be exposed to second hand auto smoke.
Leave it to a half-wit to compare smoking to voting.
There is always going to be someone who makes the most ridiculous comment, see "Look for the right wing to whine and pout.". Here it is, smoking banned from parks in Erie County, and some half-wit starts whining about voters voting republican. You see, half-wit no longer has to put up with second hand smoke in the parks but that isn't good enough, half-wit wants the right to vote taken from us as well(unless you vote the same way half-wit votes). I'm not sorry for my comment either, I am so sick of stupid people giving my rights and freedom up. Half-wit, you are more like a no-wit and you are the reason why this country is falling apart and soon to be broken beyond repair. You actually still believe there is a party system in the USA. If I ever see you in public, I shall blow smoke in your face, which will hopefull give you cancer, because you are the cancer which is killing the USA.
They aren't going to publish my comment.

Even if there was a law, how could it possibly be enforced? What a waste of time.

Philip at Lead Competition The Philip Scotties competed in the Lead Annual Invitational Cross Country Competition at the Tomahawk Golf Course six miles south of Lead. This was a varsity-only "A" Division race, thus giving three Scotties their first varsity competition in 2004. An "A" Division team consists of 6 runners; the first 4 are counters, while the next two are pushers to break any scoring ties. The lower the team score, the better. The first 15 places earn medals.

The board gave approval to Neville to purchase the 1997 Chevy pickup they had on trial from Federal Surplus in Box Elder. He noted all FEMA work, except one area, is done. The last area involves downed trees that are in a wet location.
"Pioneering Our Future" is the theme for the Philip area and Haakon County Community Assessment to be held on October 12-14, 2004. "The homesteaders and ranchers who settled in this area took charge of their lives," says Glenn Parsons, President of the Philip Chamber of Commerce. "They didn't just let things happen to them, but set about to improve their lives by opportunities available to them. They organized into communities that cooperated in order to improve their lives. The same needs to be true for us today.

mark45: I don't see any argument in your post. What now?
The game looks beautiful even without using the shaders you are missing. Could you point out, why the game doesn't look good, because it doesn't use the <insert> shader?
Before GLSL, there was another shading language type in OpenGL... ARB Shading Language. Just because the game didn't support GLSL until now, doesn't mean that they weren't using any shaders at all.
You get easily shocked, like a little girl, mind some chilling stuff for you?, how about barbie.
Last edited by mark45; 09-10-2012 at 01:07 AM.
As a developer of 0 A.D. I can clarify the situation.
The article is actually inaccurate. GLSL support was added in a a previous release. What came in this release were more advanced GLSL shaders, GLSL mode is still considered experimental and must be enabled using the config file.
By default ARB shaders are used for compatibility reasons. There is work in progress to port the new GLSL shaders to ARB, this may be done in time for the next alpha. I believe that all of the current GLSL shaders will be able to be ported fully.
There is also a fixed render pipeline for even more compatibility. This can be enabled using a config option or will be automatically enabled if certain drivers are detected. This may not be maintained indefinitely, since the hardware which requires it is quite old and it makes the graphics architecture more awkward (which has caused some bugs).

(NewsUSA) - As we age, we all become a little older and wiser. So, why not put some of that wisdom into making healthier decisions? Healthy eating and regular exercise will give you energy and help you lower your chances for developing diseases such as diabetes and heart disease.
The Weight-control Information Network (WIN), a service of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) of the National Institutes of Health, offers the following tips for older adults:
Healthy Eating
* Don't skip meals. Skipping meals may slow down your metabolism or lead you to eat larger amounts of high-fat foods later in the day. To keep yourself on track, eat with a friend or someone whose company you enjoy.
* Eat just enough for you. Do not eat more food than your body will need. Make sure you are consuming enough vitamin D and vitamin B-12, as many seniors have trouble getting enough of these nutrients. Limit high fat and high salt foods. Try to get enough fiber into your diet.
* Prepare meals in advance. Cook ahead, and then freeze meals so that you have easy meals on hand for when you don't feel like cooking.
Physical Activity
* Start with 10 minutes of slower activity, and build up to 30 minutes of more brisk activity.
* Try different types of exercise. Different types of activity benefit your body in different ways. For example, aerobic activity may help you maintain weight and increase your energy, while strength training keeps your muscles and bones strong.
* Be active with family and friends. Having a buddy can help you stay active.

JBL OnBeat
A simple system, a simple pleasure
The JBL OnBeat in black |
In the beginning, there was only the iPod, and the basic iPod speaker system — just a 30-pin connector sitting on top of (or nestled into) an array of two or more powered speakers. Docking was no problem.
Then came the iPhone, and that basic system had to support both the iPod and the iPhone® (and the resultant reassignment of pin connector functions).
Now there's the iPad®, and all of a sudden, even a basic system needs a level of sophistication that rivals some of the "advanced" speaker systems of those bygone days.
When the choice was just iPhones or iPods, docks were pretty straightforward — after all, the dimensions between the two weren't that different. Add an iPad to the mix, though, and things change.
No-nonsense, yet totally flexible
The JBL OnBeat is a basic docking speaker system for today — it easily handles an iPod, iPhone, or iPad. It's still a pretty simple system. The OnBeat just plays audio from a docked i-Device.
The first thing I noticed when I opened up the box was how substantial the OnBeat felt. And no wonder. By necessity it has to have a base wide and stable enough to support an iPad.
The dock turns for horizontal viewing. |
JBL's constructed an ingenious multi-purpose dock for the OnBeat. Its 30-pin connector sticks straight up (as it does with most docks), so I could place my iPod or iPhone in it, vertically oriented as usual. But it also came with an adapter for the iPhone and iPod touch. With it, I could swivel the dock and orient my player horizontally. This can be an advantage if I want to use Cover Flow, or watch a video on my docked player.
The OnBeat also had a brace for the iPad. I snapped it into place, and had nice, stable support for a docking iPad. And the tablet doesn't look outsized perched on the dock. While the OnBeat works well with an iPod or iPhone, it just seems to look better with an iPad.
Solid build, solid sound
Dock construction isn't the only thing that's advanced over time. So have the quality of speakers for these small systems. A friend of mine still uses a JBL OnStage for her iPod touch. It's an entry-level system from just a few years ago. The sound is adequate (she loves it), but best for close-in listening.
The OnBeat has two full-range speakers, but because the case is bigger than that of the OnStage, the speakers can be bigger, too. And that translates into better sound quality. The OnBeat speakers are angled upwards and slightly out to produce a fairly wide soundfield.
Quality sound from a small system
In my listening tests, the OnBeat did equally well with both acoustic and electronic tracks. My classical selections are all lossless files. Through the OnBeat they had a good amount of detail and sounded nice and expansive. Heavy metal and dance tracks hit with a tight solid bass and crisp treble. Acoustic genres, such as jazz, folk, and Americana sounded clear and natural.
While I could crank up the volume and get the music really loud, I wouldn't say the sound was room-filling. These are still fairly small speakers with about 15 watts total system power. That's not to say that the OnBeat is exclusively for desktop use. I thought it did best with both near- and mid-range listening. And, for background music, it worked just fine in our large family room.
Overall impression
The JBL OnBeat is a simple, stand-alone iPod/iPhone/iPad docking speaker system that delivers on sound. Based on my experience, I think it would be a good addition to a den, office, or bedroom. If your i-Device is looking for a home, the JBL OnBeat just might be for you.

Aramis to face Twins in return from disabled list
After three weeks of recovery, slugger to take on Nolasco at Minnesota
With his lineup already hitting at a blistering pace, despite Tuesday's 6-4 loss, Brewers manager Ron Roenicke is about to get another offensive weapon.
After three weeks on the disabled list with a strained left hamstring, veteran third baseman Aramis Ramirez is slated to rejoin the Milwaukee lineup for Wednesday night's game against Minnesota.
Ramirez returns after a two-game rehab stint at Class A Wisconsin, where he went 2-for-6 and played four innings at third base. Ramirez said that everything felt good and that he would ease back in by playing designated hitter on Wednesday.
Last year, Ramirez missed two months with injuries, and the team struggled without him and Ryan Braun in the lineup. This time around, with Braun and Ramirez making consecutive trips to the DL, the team has stayed afloat and currently sits five games ahead of St. Louis for the lead in the National League Central.
"That says a lot, because we have a good team," Ramirez said. "'Brauny' went to the DL, we kept winning. I went out, we kept winning. And that says a lot. You're losing your three and four guys in the lineup. We kept winning, and that's good."
To Twins manager Ron Gardenhire, Ramirez is another good hitter to counter in a lineup full of them.
"They're fixing to get Ramirez back, who's a pretty good player, too, who can drive the baseball," Gardenhire said. "We know these guys, we know they're pretty good, we know they can swing it."
The Brewers showed as much in the series opener on Monday, when home runs by Mark Reynolds and Jonathan Lucroy led to a 6-2 Milwaukee win. But Minnesota turned the tables on Tuesday and hope to continue the trend as the four-game home-and-away series shifts to Minnesota.
On Wednesday, the Brewers will send Marco Estrada (5-2, 4.03) to the mound to try to take advantage of the struggling Twins, who have lost eight of their past 12. Estrada had his seventh quality start of the season on Friday against the Cubs, giving up three runs over six innings.
The Twins will look to win their second straight behind right-hander Ricky Nolasco, who will make his ninth career start against the Brewers. Nolasco is 2-3 against the Brewers lifetime and gave up four runs over 5 1/3 innings in his most recent start against them, on June 10, 2013.
Twins: Gardenhire has fond memories of Gomez
Though Carlos Gomez has been in Milwaukee since 2010, Twins manager Ron Gardenhire says he has positive memories of the outfielder's two seasons in Minnesota. He shared one particularly funny tidbit prior to Tuesday night's game.
"Ask him about a few of our hotels on the road," Gardenhire said, laughing. "Ask him about the one in Tampa; that's when he was at his best. His eyes were this big, he couldn't sleep at night and actually was rooming with a player. They had conjoining rooms and both ended up staying in the same room. So he's a chicken.
"But as they know here, he's a pleasure. He's full of life every day, happy to be on the baseball field and really has gotten a lot out of a lot of ability. He's really made himself a pretty good player. He's had fun no matter where he's at."
Brewers: Roenicke hopes Smith is in All-Star contention
Milwaukee reliever Will Smith, acquired from Kansas City in an offseason trade, has helped anchor the Brewers' bullpen. Smith has a 0.35 ERA in 29 appearances this year and has not allowed an earned run over his past 14 appearances.
Before Tuesday night's game against Minnesota, Roenicke was asked if Smith's numbers might merit some All-Star consideration:
"I would think so," Roenicke said. "With how we're playing and what he's doing in that bullpen, I would think they would take notice of it. You look at the numbers, they're pretty sick numbers. Hopefully he'll be talked about and he continues this well through the break."
Last season, four non-closer relievers were chosen for the All-Star Game: Brett Cecil and Steve Delabar of the Blue Jays; Jesse Crain of the White Sox; and Mark Melancon of the Pirates. The decision on Smith will be left to Cardinals manager Mike Matheny, who will manage the National League squad this year.
Worth nothing
• Estrada has struggled against the Twins, with an 0-2 record and 6.11 ERA in five career games against Minnesota, including three starts.

You too can make your own chocolate chips! Yes you! For a simple taste of making your own chocolate, the cost of a piping bag and a tiny tip…you my friend can spend countless minutes creating your own nuggets of chocolate bliss! But wait there is more!! Not only can you make them…you can EAT them!! Oh but wait, there is even more…for free I will throw in antioxidant flavonoids, magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron, zinc, copper, potassium and manganese! Yes, you too can enjoy these wonderful health benefits for free! Respond today and all this can be yours!
Ensure all utensils and the bowl are dry before the ingredients are added as water can cause the mix to separate.
Options: Add chocolate chips to your cookies such as in Chocolate Chip Cookies, Almond Hooters, Chocolate Chip Mint Ice Cream, and many other recipes! They make a great late night snack while everyone else is sleeping. Quietly tiptoe to the freezer, crack the door open slightly so you don't allow to much of the light to spill out, grab the container of chocolate chips and nibble away. Unlike M & Ms these will melt in your hand so make sure to lick your fingers clean to hide all the evidence. :)

I don't have mesquite powder. Can I make the chips without it?
Yes Lili,
It might change the flavor just a tad from what I made but it should be just fine.
i was wondering if there would be a huge difference or even if the taste would be way off base if i tried making the choc chips using coconut oil?
Well, they won't be as rich in deep chocolate flavor and not to sure that they stay as firm as the cacao butter….worth a try though. IF they didn't work out just right, you can always throw them in a granola mixture, a cookie dough, in a chia pudding…all sorts of things, so they won't go to waste!
So, what's your opinion about Agave? I have been staying away from recipes that call for it, due to some things I have read. Do you have a specific brand of Agave that you use and do you have brands that you stay away from? Thanks!
Hello Kerri,
Ah yes agave… this is an ingredient that comes up in question by many. I don't have any strong opinions to stand on regarding to be honest. I have done tons of research and reading and you can find resources that say it's good for you and bad for you. It gets confusing. So, I go to my standard way of approaching these matters. I ask myself, "How do I feel about using this product? Does it agree with my body? Do I feel any ill effects?" I then source out the best product that I can find. What are they processing standards? Are they organic? Raw? Fair-trade? Sustainable? etc. They don't have to be all of these but I look at their core. Then finally, my final approach is… use it in moderation. I may have many recipes that use agave but that doesn't mean that I eat them or agave everyday. Moderation is the key. There are so many other products that you can use to sub out agave so if you have issues with it, change it out. Each sweetener will lend different flavors so keep that in mind. I do have a post written up about that if interested.
I do however have a favorite brand of agave that I have been using for some time now. It's called Xagave. I order it through Amazon. http://astore.amazon.com/nouraw-20/detail/B002W09PX4. I haven't found it in stores yet though I heard Sams Wholesale Club was carrying it but I am sure that differs from store to store.
I hope this helps. If you have more questions… you know how to find me. :) amie sue
Hi Amie, i am having a hard time finding the mesquite powder. I just saw mesquite flour by Shillow Farms but I'm not sure that's the one or not. It doesnt say its raw… Should inkeep searching or this one would do? Thanks as usual! Have a great day :-)
Hello Pilar… good to hear from you, it has been a while. :)
I looked up the mesquite flour by Shillow Farms. It is organic and gluten-free but not raw. They heat the pods at about 130F for 4 hours to remove the water so the high sugar content pods can be ground to a fine flour. If you can't find the raw version locally and don't want to order the raw kind, then this is the next bet. If you are aiming to be 100% raw then you will have to decide for yourself as to what your priorities are. I tend to order mine through Amazon http://astore.amazon.com/nouraw-20/detail/B001NHCGSS
Good luck and have a great day. amie sue
Dear Amie-Sue,
Thank you so much for your response and your research, you are amazing! I finally found raw mesquite powder locally so I'm very happy! Although now I see that I need a pipping bag :D
I'll keep you posted when I finally make them.
And I have been checking this site all the time, but just for the same recipes… I would say is still my main raw encyclopaedia, and your attention is really unique.
I'll write back soon!
Hi Pilar, you can use a Zip-lock bag for a piping bag if in a pinch. :) Many blessings. amie sue
Oh, thanks for the suggestion. However, do I still need something for the tip?
Pilar, you can just snip the bottom tip of the baggie… the smaller the cut the finer the line.
Great, then I'm all set for my first attempt! I really appreciate your answers, how lucky we are with you! :-)
Hello Amie-Sue,
I finally tried this!
The thing is 99% of the times I take a recipe, there's this sweet little evil force that keeps me from sticking to it! Of course, always hoping that it is going to turn out as I like. But unfortunately, I most of the times regret not having been a good girl and done what it was written!
So in this case, I thought that if I added more agave and a pinch of vanilla, chances were the chocolate chips would make my taste buds happier. And they did get really happy, but once the chocolate chips cookies were in the dehydrator, a good part of the chips melted away and leaked down to the dehydrator floor (thanks god there was nothing underneath ;-)
Still, there's still chocolate chips in the cookies and they taste good! But next time I won't risk again…
lol You sound a bit like me Pilar. I am sorry that you ended up with a mess! You sure made me giggle though. The trials and errors of the kitchen…aah the stories. Better luck next time..blessings, amie sue
You can also use a dehydrator to melt the cacao butter.
I like to dehydrate at 95 degrees- close to human body temperature. That's the temperature the food gets digested in my body, anyway, I think.
@ Pilar: Too much agave can make chocolate soft so you have to be careful, I think.
Another great recipe, Amie-Sue! :)
Where do you get cacao butter? Can you interchange cacao and cocoa powder (no sugar and other ingredients in it)?
Hi Emi,
I order my cacao butter on-line. http://nouveauraw.com/ingredients/chocolate-products/sunfood-golden-cacao-butter-organic-1-lb/. You would need to research the cocoa that you are referring to. Many people intermix those terms. Do you have a brand name? Is it raw? amie sue
So excited to stumble upon your site! I have been looking for proportions to make a chocolate that will set up using a liquid sweetener (our family is doing GAPS) and cocoa butter. I have done chocolate work for several years but it has always been with purchased couverture so the liquid sweetener has had me frustrated. It looks like this will work perfectly. I was curious about your photo with the piping bag. I noticed you are not using a coupler. Is there a particular reason why? Is it easier or easier for clean up? Thanks!
Hello Gay… I am so happy to have you here! I hope that you find some inspiration through out the site that fits into the GAPS diet for you and your family. :) As far as to why I didn't have a coupler on my bag… no reason, I was traveling a lot at that time and probably didn't have one atm. I was making due with what I had. I hope that you have a wonderful weekend. Blessings, amie sue
Hi Amie Sue!
Is there an automatic chocolate chip maker that you know of? I made raw chocolate chips once, and although they were great and fun to eat, it killed my arms, hands and back (just kvetching). I swore I'd never make them again, but I really would love to if I could find something to help automate the process….hello, Nestle's! Hmmmmm…maybe hire some kids? Any suggestions?
Oh my Maureen… I wish that there was. If there is one out there, I am not aware of it… not on a personal kitchen level anyway. :) I'd say to gather up some girlfriends and make a party of it. Have some light snacks, cold drinks or warm (if cold outside), turn on some music and have everyone armed with a dehydrator tray (lined with teflex) and a piping bag of chocolate. If I lived near you, I would come help! :) Have a great week my friend, amie sue
You're BRILLIANT!!! That's exactly what I'll do! Inviting friends to make a party of it will certainly make it go faster! Thank you for that suggestion!!
Well not sure I would go as far as brilliant. lol But thank you Maureen. hehe hugs, amie sue

Didn't get to watch the match when it was actually on during the AO.Great match![youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5Xl2KRMqDY[/youtube]
Justine Henin beat No. 11 Vera Zvonareva 6-1, 6-4 tonight's fourth round! She will be playing No. 2 Caroline Wozniacki on Wednesday! The two have never played one another.Should be very interesting match! I hope I can tape it to watch!
WTA has officially given Justine a ranking in the draw. Here it is: WTA World Ranking: #23! Are the seeded players happy or what? I guess the pressure was on them from "the seeded players" and they kind of did wave the 16 tournament requirement rule. I assuming that the WTA thinks that Justine has now a good enough track record to be a ranked player without the 16 tournament ranking requirements. What a funny thing

Regulating the Shadow Banking SystemGary B. GortonYale School of Management; National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) Andrew MetrickYale School of Management; National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) October 18, 2010 Abstract: The "shadow" banking system played a major role in the financial crisis, but was not a central focus of the recent Dodd-Frank Law and thus remains largely unregulated. This paper proposes principles for the regulation of shadow banking and describes a specific proposal to implement those principles. We first document the rise of shadow banking over the last three decades, helped by regulatory and legal changes that gave advantages to three main institutions of shadow banking: money-market mutual funds (MMMFs) to capture retail deposits from traditional banks, securitization to move assets of traditional banks off their balance sheets, and repurchase agreements ("repo") that facilitated the use of securitized bonds in financial transactions as a form of money. A central idea of this paper is that the evolution of a bankruptcy "safe harbor" for repo has been a crucial feature in the growth and efficiency of shadow banking, and so regulators can use access to this safe harbor as the lever to enforce new rules. As for the rules themselves, history has demonstrated two successful methods for the regulation of privately created money: strict guidelines on collateral (used to stabilize national bank notes in the 19th century), and government-guaranteed insurance (used to stabilize demand deposits in the 20th century). We propose the use of insurance for MMMFs combined with strict guidelines on collateral for both securitization and repo as the best approach for shadow banking, with regulatory control established by chartering new forms of narrow banks for MMMFs and securitization and using the bankruptcy safe harbor to incent compliance on repo.

An interesting CAPTCHA
Posted by:
Date: November 15, 2007 06:40PM
From http://stonerocket.net, one of those generic free hosts that make you post.
Basically, it involves distinguishing animals(mostly cats) from objects through the use of radio boxes. It is quite an interesting idea, it uses many images and seems like a computer would not be able to tell unless every image was found and marked as what each type was. The image file names change randomly with the session ID too, but that would not stop a smart bot...
It was an interesting idea anyway.

I recentrly implemented this and BOOM. No more registered users on phpbb :) (well no spam bots, normal people can).
Its actually a really good idea. It also re-frames the image every time it grabs it and changes the hue of the image aswell.
I recommend this to everyone who runs a phpbb forum. Along with a proxy checker add on (it checks people who are registering to see if they are posting form a open proxy server, if they are. banned.)
## MOD Title: Photo Visual Confirmation
## MOD Author: Josh Yelon < email@example.com > (Josh Yelon) N/A
## MOD Description:
## This patch to phpbb2 adds a new kind of Visual Confirmation,
## also known as a CAPTCHA. The person registering for an account must
## look at photographs and determine if they are photographs of animals
## or not.
## MOD Version: 1.0.1
## Installation Level: Easy
## Installation Time: 5 Minutes
## Files To Edit: admin/admin_board.php,
## includes/constants.php,

## License: http://opensource.org/licenses/gpl-license.php GNU General Public License v2
## For security purposes, please check: http://www.phpbb.com/mods/
## for the latest version of this MOD. Although MODs are checked
## before being allowed in the MODs Database there is no guarantee
## that there are no security problems within the MOD. No support
## will be given for MODs not found within the MODs Database which
## can be found at http://www.phpbb.com/mods/
## Author Notes:
## This patch to phpbb2 adds a new kind of Visual Confirmation,
## also known as a CAPTCHA. The person registering for an account must
## look at photographs and determine if they are photographs of animals
## or not.
## The captcha can be broken by a bot that has a copy of the photos. To
## do this, the bot must compare the presented images to the photos in
## the distribution. To make this a little harder, the mod randomly
## tweaks the gamma and randomly crops the images before presenting them
## to the user. Therefore, comparison requires more than a simple
## bit-for-bit equality test. This isn't a very strong protection,
## but it's better than nothing.
## The real strength of the captcha, however, is the fact that it's so
## easy for the board admin to replace the photos. A bot that doesn't
## have a copy of the photo library is at an almost crippling
## disadvantage. Once the photos have been replaced, this captcha is
## almost unbreakable.
## I have made it as easy as possible to drop in new photos. As you
## can see, there are two directories containing photos:
## images/captcha/animal
## images/captcha/non
## Which contain, respectively, animals and non-animals. All of the
## supplied images are 256x192 --- this is the optimal size. However,
## you can use images that are somewhat smaller or larger. All images
## must be jpegs. The filenames do not matter, although the extension
## must be jpg. It is recommended that the board admin delete all
## the supplied photos, and replace them with photos of his own.
## The supplied photos are kittens and cars. I intentionally didn't
## use a mix of different types of animals, or different types of
## non-animals. I feel that using two clear categories makes it
## easier for the human --- it is very easy to visually scan for
## kittens, but much harder to visually scan for animals-in-general.
## To enable the mod, you must browse to the board configuration
## page (admin_board.php), find the entry for "Visual Confirmation,"
## and select "Photos."
## This captcha requires the php GD extension. If you install this
## MOD without installing GD, the board configuration page will
## display the message "If you were to install the php GD extension,
## a photo-recognition mode would become available here."
## The code is quite small, and this mod integrates the new CAPTCHA
## cleanly into the phpbb2 2.0.21 codebase. It is my hope that the phpbb2
## developers will eventually include this mod with the distribution.
## This software is actually in the public domain, but the format of
## the license field above doesn't provide any means to specify that.
## Long story short, you can do anything at all with it.

I wonder how many kittens we will have to kill before this one turns useless :P
More seriously, I haven't played quite enough with this mechanism, but I've already noticed something that looks like a fatal flaw: when you fetch an image (using the url with the hash provided in the form), it always displays the same type of image as the one in the form. So, if the image was an animal, it'll still be an animal, and if it was a car or something else, it'll still be something non-animal...
So to break the CAPTCHA, you don't need to have ALL the images in the server, but just a subset of them: you request each image as many times as necessary, until you get one that you can identify either as animal or non animal. You could do with exactly two images, but the more you have the less reloads you need. Once you're done with all the images, you submit the form and voila!
As for the simple distortion mechanisms, they're easily avoided using basic shape analisis to replace the bit per bit comparison...
In any case, this method needs a bit more work put into it, IMHO...
PS: When programming a CAPTCHA solver (or adapting an existing one for a specific implementation), one usually downloads and solves dozens or even a hundred CAPTCHA's, and each one usually implies 4 or more steps (that is, identifying each of the letters in the CAPTCHA). That means that any decent attacker wouldn't mind downloading a few dozen kitten images, and classifying them as needed. For what I've seen, the image database in the server isn't that big (I even got the same image twice in the same form!), so even a rather small subset of all the images will do the trick...

MILLVILLE, Minnesota – Red Bull/KTM 250 Motocross teammates Ken Roczen and Marvin Musquin earned two top ten overall finishes with Roczen taking 4th and Musquin 7th for the weekend at the seventh round of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship Series.
Although this was Roczen's first time racing at Spring Creek MX Park, you would not have known after watching him in the morning qualifying sessions where he turned the fastest qualifying time at the end of both sessions!
In the first moto, Ken Roczen got off to a great start and was sitting in 2nd position around the first corner. Marvin Musquin was slightly farther back sitting in 7th on the first lap. A mistake by Musquin set him back to 13th at the end of lap two and he spent the remainder of the moto regaining those positions. At the end of the sixteen lap race he was able to come through the pack to finish 7th. Meanwhile, Roczen held on to 2nd place for the first half of the race before dropping to 4th on the eleventh lap. He was able to stay close to the top three but was unable to gain back the positions lost.
The Red Bull/KTM teammates didn't have the best start in the second moto. Roczen was able to salvage a 6th place start after the first corner while Musquin was back in 15th. Both riders used the 30 minute plus two lap moto to their advantage and were able to successfully climb through the pack. Roczen was able to move into podium position by the halfway mark and maintained that place to the checkered flag to earn 3rd overall. Musquin traveled from a 15th place start all the way up to 6th by the end of the moto to earn 7th overall for the day.
"I was happy to land on the podium in the second moto," stated Roczen. "However, I really wanted to be on the overall podium and just missed it by one spot. I am looking forward to the next round at Washougal. It is another track I have never ridden but have heard a lot about. Hopefully I can get back on the podium there."

Five-day Weather Forecast for Los Angeles, CA
From the powerful earthquake that rattled Nepal to daredevil Nik Wallenda's death-defying walk, here's a look at this week's trending weather videos.
Chinese wingsuiter Zhang Shupeng set a new wingsuit flying world record April 26 when he leapt from a hot air balloon at 8,150 meters without wearing an oxygen mask. Shupeng bested the old record of 8,000 meters.
Check out this adorable footage of a man walking and enjoying the beautiful scenery and turns back to see his baby sister basking in the sight in a different way.
More frightening video has emerged from Mount Everest where a massive avalanche caused by the earthquake killed 17 climbers.
On the morning of April 25, the Nepalese army rescued the son of Shyam Awal. The army tried until midnight the night before but were unsuccessful. The 4-month-old boy survived 22 hours beneath the rubble.
Crowds are flocking to the Jaggar Museum overlook on the Big Island to catch the breathtaking show.
While visiting the beach, this man decided to take some time to balance some rocks. With the help of some magic and gravity, the results are pretty unreal.
April 1, 2015, just east of the Ural Mountains the land gave. Alexander Giniyatullin captured the scene as land, snow and ice slowly crept over the bank. The slide consumed the road and a railway and knocked down trees.
Syrian Brown Bear Millie just can't stand to be alone. At five months old, Millie would get anxious when her keepers would leave her side so they rescued a 10-month-old lab mix, King, from the shelter to keep her company.
A beagle was taking advantage of a nice spring day outside his home in State College, Pennsylvania.

Even among staunchly antiwar politicians and pundits, few bother to mention the cost of the war to civilians.
Gen. Stanley McChrystal himself put it best: "Because of civilian casualties, I think we have just about eroded our credibility here."
In a clear challenge to hardliners, President-elect Hassan Rouhani vowed, 'I have come to destroy extremism.'
There are some hopeful signs, including his recent speech at the National Defense University and a new, less hawkish foreign policy team.
The US bombing of a Pakistani border outpost, US drone attacks and Pakistani support for the Taliban—all threaten to destroy the chances for a peaceful US-NATO exit from Afghanistan.

Technique in SSBM; One way is to throw a character in the air and continually grab them before they reach the ground. Some characters you can throw down and grab and in the case of yoshi it can be done in more complex ways. This is done by pressing the a button slightly before they touch the ground while holding the l or z button. This is useful in racking up damage and pissing off your friends.Works best on fast fallers.
Rod: gotcha bitch.
Cltn: i hate peach. fucking chain grab.

Description / Features
This plugin uses the Trac XML-RPC plugin to connect to a Trac instance and display metrics about open tickets. It can also drill down to the component level.
Place the JAR file of the plugin in /extensions/plugins of your Sonar installation. Restart sonar.
Install and enable the Trac XML-RPC plugin on your Trac instance. You will need to give an anonymous or user account 'XML_RPC' and 'TICKET_VIEW' privileges.
The Trac instance URL can be specified in two places:
Your project's pom.xml file under the 'issue managment' section; for example: (note that the username/password/component has to be specified in Sonar project settings, the plugin does not currently have the ability to read the username/password/component from the pom.xml)
- Specified in Sonar under the project settings.
- Username/password/component name should also be specified here.
Note: component name is completely optional, if you don't specify one you will get the number of tickets over the whole instance. There is also no validation of the component name, so if you specify a non-existent component name no tickets will be found.
Running analysis
To kick-off the analysis, run mvn sonar:sonar
Known limitations
- While the Trac instance URL can be picked up from your project's pom.xml file the username/password/component have to be specified within the project settings in Sonar.

LSU could reel in another football commitment
Never one to be shackled by national recruiting rankings, LSU coach Les Miles and his staff may be about to pluck another prospect from Florida who has so far flown under the recruiting horizon.
John Battle, a 6-foot-1, 171-pound safety from Hallandale High School in Hallandale Beach, Fla., is expected to announce his commitment at 4 p.m. CDT. That commitment is expected to be to LSU.
A consensus three-star prospect, Battle isn't ranked by any of the four national recruiting services. ESPN ranks him as the nation's No. 27 safety prospect,
followed by Rivals at No. 34, 24/7 Sports at No. 56 and Scout at No. 60.
However, Battle does have an impressive string of scholarship offers, among them South Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi State, Ohio State, Florida State, USC, West Virginia and Louisville.
LSU's closest competition in the battle for Battle may be South Florida, according to Shea Dixon of 24/7 Sports.
The Tigers currently have 11 commitments, having picked up two this month from Alexandria Senior High wide receiver D.J. Chark (6-1, 176) and Oklahoma City Douglass defensive end Deondre Clark (6-3, 238).
LSU's only current commitment from Florida, outside linebacker Sharieff Rhaheed (6-2, 202) of Fort Pierce Central, may be wavering after a teammate recently committed to Louisville. Dixon reported a flip to the Cardinals may be immiment.

Malignant teratoma is a type of cancer made of cysts that contain one or more of the three layers of cells found in a developing baby (embryo). These layers are called ectoderms, mesoderms, and endoderms.
Dermoid cyst - malignant; Nonseminomatous germ cell tumor - teratoma; Immature teratoma
Malignant teratoma occurs most often in young men in their 20s - 30s. It is often located in the chest area. Most malignant teratomas can spread throughout the body, and have spread by the time of diagnosis.
A number of other cancers are often associated with these tumors, including:
Symptoms include:
The health care provider will perform a physical exam, which may reveal blockage of veins entering the center of the chest due to increased pressure in the chest area.
The following tests help diagnose the tumor:
Chemotherapy is used to treat the tumor. A combination of medicines (usually cisplatin, etoposide, and bleomycin) is commonly used.
After chemotherapy is complete, CT scans are taken again to see if any mass remains. Surgery may be recommended if there is a possibility that the cancer will grow back in that area.
There are many support groups available for people with cancer. Contact the American Cancer Society -- www.cancer.org
The outlook depends on the tumor size and location and the age of the patient.
The cancer can spread throughout the body and there may be complications of surgery or related to chemotherapy.
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of malignant teratoma.

Oatmeal CookiesI have really been craving cookies. It is almost unnatural. At least I won't let my gym membership lapse! So, I wanted some cookies that would satisfy me, and yet I wouldn't feel the need to consume massive amounts! So, I add raisins to them! BUT I didn;t have any raisins, so I added craisins. I don't think the 40′s housewife had these, but I bet she would have liked them!

Software Engineer and developer since 1994, knee deep in Java from 1998 till 2009, with experience in distributed systems, C/C++ (UNIX and Win32), CORBA, enterprise computing, software architecture, network protocols (layer 3 and up), systems administration, x86 Assembly, VB, FoxPro, and UML.
Working since 2010 with a defense contractor in the design and architecture of embedded systems using C/C++ and CORBA
I've pursued a MS in Computer Science (with focus on security in distributed systems). Now, I'm pursuing a MS in Electrical and Computer Engineering, and hopefully I would like to enter the fields of satellite communications and/or network protocols (layer 1 and 2). I might, at a later time pursue a Ph.D. in CS or CE (or a MS. in Computational Mathematics.)
