Alvarez has been a leading name in the world of acoustic guitars for over half a decade. Renowned for their top-notch quality and commitment to innovation, an Alvarez guitar is going to deliver amazing tones that you are absolutely going to love. Alvarez was founded in 1965 and quickly came into its own by partnering with master luthier Kazuo Yairi. This partnership led to the production of some of the most beloved musical instruments in the industry, many of which continue to be sought after by performers and collectors alike. Today, Alvarez guitars are now played by some of the biggest names in popular music. Performers as diverse as Joe Bonamassa, Ani DiFranco, Bono, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Jerry Garcia, Thom Yorke, Carlos Santana, and legendary Beatle Paul McCartney all strum Alvarez acoustic guitars when they hit the stage or the studio to perform their greatest hits.
The beauty of Alvarez guitars is that there is one for every skill level or style. Take a look at all they have to offer and you will have no trouble finding the acoustic guitar that is right for you. If you're a beginner, for example, there's no better place to start than with the Artist Series AD60 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar. This guitar features a hand-selected solid spruce top, as well as a mahogany back and sides. Its warm, powerful tone is certain to captivate, whether you're showcasing your progress for friends and family, or playing your very first show. Best of all, this guitar is also offered with a left-handed option, so everyone has the opportunity to play.
If you're looking to upgrade from your first guitar, or want the option of plugging in, take a look at the Artist Series AF70CE Folk Acoustic-Electric Guitar. This guitar is a smaller-bodied instrument that offers incredible versatility, volume and projection you're definitely going to appreciate. And if you want to take in up a notch for larger venues, simple plug it in and let the SYS650 Dual pickup take care of the rest.
Alvarez has always taken great pride in their instruments. With build techniques that focus on quality and a commitment to forward thinking innovation, you'll love the sweet sounds of your new Alvarez guitar.

Similar starters square off for Tribe, O's in finale
Kluber, Gonzalez sport nearly identical numbers in four June starts
Corey Kluber and Miguel Gonzalez aren't twins, but that hasn't kept the two pitchers -- both righties -- from putting together eerily similar numbers during the month of June.
Kluber and Gonzalez have each made four starts this month. They both own 3-1 records and 2.60 ERAs. While Kluber has allowed 10 runs (eight earned) and 28 hits over 27 2/3 innings, Gonzalez has given up eight runs and 17 hits in 27 2/3 innings. Gonzalez has 19 strikeouts and seven unintentional walks and Kluber has 23 strikeouts and five walks.
The two right-handers will meet on Thursday in the finale of a four-game series between Cleveland and Baltimore. The Tribe took Wednesday's contest, 4-3, meaning the Orioles must win on Thursday for a series split. In 13 games (11 starts) for the Indians, Kluber is 6-4 with a 3.68 ERA. Gonzalez is 5-3 with a 3.75 ERA over 12 starts for the O's.
In his last outing, Kluber, 27, beat Minnesota for his third win in as many starts. He surrendered eight hits and three runs over 5 2/3 innings while striking out four and walking one. Kluber and Tribe second baseman Jason Kipnis shared American League Player of the Week honors for June 10-16, during which Kluber went 2-0 and allowed just one run over 16 innings of work.
"I've been gaining confidence each time out, trying to build on the last one," Kluber said. "Just trying to pound the strike zone, really. Try to keep it simple, not make it too complicated."
As for Gonzalez, 29, he has put together quality starts in nine of his 13 outings, including his last one. On Saturday in Toronto, Gonzalez allowed three runs and three hits over 7 1/3 innings, but his three-start winning streak came to an end, anyway.
What did Gonzalez have working that day?
"My command," Gonzalez said. "Getting strike one -- I know I was falling behind, ball one, and then I would come back and even it out, 1-1. That happened to a lot of hitters that I faced that day. But [pitching] is basically just getting ahead of hitters and making them think what's coming next."
Indians: Kipnis making All-Star push
Cleveland scored its first two runs of Wednesday's win via a fourth-inning homer from Kipnis. The Indians second baseman went 1-for-3 with two RBIs, a run and a walk.
Kipnis has reached base safely in 28 straight ballgames, dating back to May 26. In that span, he's hitting .364 (36-for-99) with 21 RBIs and 16 runs scored. In the month of June, Kipnis is batting .405 (32-for-79).
Through 68 games, Kipnis has a .288 batting average, 11 home runs and 45 RBIs.
Orioles: Machado's doubles piling up
Manny Machado's leadoff double in the seventh inning of Wednesday's game did more than ruin Scott Kazmir's no-hit bid. It also gave him 36 two-baggers on the season, a number no player had reached before the All-Star break since at least 1997.
Machado finished the night with two hits, a run scored and an RBI in four at-bats. In 79 games, he's batting .319 with five home runs and 39 RBIs.
In addition to leading the Major Leagues in doubles, he also paces baseball in multihit games, with 33. Including Thursday, Machado still has 17 games to build on his doubles total before the Midsummer Classic in New York next month.
Worth noting
• In taking two of the three games that have been played in this series, Cleveland has outscored the Orioles, 12-11.
• After Thursday, the two clubs will meet next on Sept. 2-4, when the Indians are scheduled to host Baltimore for three games at Progressive Field.

Tribe hopes Kluber can keep rolling at The K
Royals look to provide run support for Duffy in series opener
As the American League Central race becomes a game of catch-up with division-leading Detroit, Thursday night's tilt between the second-place Indians and third-place Royals -- the first of a four-game set at Kauffman Stadium -- could help determine which team has the better chance of closing the gap.
The series opener will fittingly feature a clash between two quality arms, with Cleveland turning to right-hander Corey Kluber and Kansas City going with southpaw Danny Duffy.
Kluber has been a stalwart for an otherwise shaky Tribe rotation this season and leads team starters in wins (10), ERA (2.95) and strikeouts (152). He has been especially potent on the mound of late, winning four of his last five starts while posting a 1.96 ERA over that span.
Kluber's last performance -- 8 2/3 frames of two-run baseball in a win over the Tigers -- was dominant.
"He was terrific," Tribe manager Terry Francona said. "He commanded his fastball -- especially to his glove side, and with all those right-handed hitters up there. Then, he could spin his breaking ball off of that. He was really good. Yeah, that's what you're looking for."
The Indians, who are 4-3 so far on their road trip facing all division opponents, are looking for another strong performance out of Kluber.
For the Royals, they'll aim to continue their recent success against the Tribe, having won three of the pair's last four meetings. They'll also need Duffy to keep providing the team with quality innings.
Duffy has a 5-10 record despite a commendable 2.66 ERA and eight quality starts in 14 tries this season. The issue, of course, has been the Royals averaging an AL-worst 2.66 runs per nine innings when Duffy is on the mound.
"Danny's a team guy and Danny'll never make an excuse about anything. Never," manager Ned Yost said. "He's 100 percent behind his teammates; he just goes out and competes."
In Duffy's last outing, for example, he held the Red Sox to two runs (one earned) over 6 2/3 innings, but wound up on the losing end of a 2-1 game.
Indians: Ramirez recalled, Aviles should still contribute
With shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera still out of the starting lineup with back spasms, the Tribe recalled infielder Jose Ramirez from Triple-A Columbus on Wednesday to shore up its depth at the position. Left-hander T.J. House (1-2, 4.50 ERA) was optioned to the same affiliate in order to clear a spot on the active roster.
Ramirez started at shortstop and batted second during Wednesday's series finale with the Twins, and he went 2-for-3 with an RBI.
But Francona noted that he still expects utilityman Mike Aviles to spend time in the infield, should Cabrera remain sidelined. Aviles started at shortstop on Tuesday.
"It's not that Aviles can't do it, but you hate to go into a game with no backup," Francona said. "That's a little dangerous. We did it for a day, but that's not something you want to live with."
Ramirez, listed as Cleveland's seventh-best prospect by MLB.com, has hit .302 with 22 extra-base hits across 60 games with Columbus this year.
Royals: Hosmer's return short-lived
First baseman Eric Hosmer made his return to the starting lineup on Wednesday afternoon, which was a day sooner than the team expected. The 24-year-old had missed the previous two games after getting hit in the hand by a pitch on Sunday.
"You just don't know," Yost said of the injury. "I don't know how fast they're going to heal. It's still a little sore, but it's playable. It's down to where it's manageable."
At least it was until the eighth inning. That's when Hosmer left the game and Billy Butler pinch-hit for him. Hosmer had a sacrifice fly in the first inning, then grounded out in his subsequent two at-bats. After his third at-bat, Hosmer had difficulty gripping the bat, and the Royals aren't sure if he'll play Thursday.
Hosmer entered play Wednesday riding a 16-game hitting streak, which was the longest active streak in the Majors.
Worth noting
• Injured Tribe outfielder Michael Bourn (hamstring) took part in some light running and hitting with the team earlier this week, and he is pleased with his progress thus far. The 31-year-old has been on the 15-day disabled list since July 6.
• The Royals' Bruce Chen recorded his 82nd win on Tuesday night, which tied him with Mariano Rivera for the most all-time victories by a Panamanian pitcher.

She was still 10 and she wrote a long title like "Life is like a rainbow, you need both the sun and the rain to make it colors appear" or "Four things a woman should know: How to look like a girl, How to act like a lady, How to think like a man, And how to work like a dog" and yes..they were blog titles, not the first sentence of the post.
Then I realize, although her sense of style is already grown ahead her age, she's still a little girl. In that post, just like the nature of a kid, she is cheerful and colorful. She even still has a nanny..she's a little girl who instead of dressing up her Barbie, prefer to dress herself up. That is both scary and impressive.
In her photos, we can see that she is growing up and so does her sense of fashion. I remember stumbling upon a child's world of wonder when she played with crazy makeup, making up stories about the weather fairy, combining outfit photo-post with her childish drawing, and more 'serious' play such as dressing up as four ladies and the time when she dress herself up as both a boy and a girl in the same photo.
In terms of her fashion, only in one year she could have a completely different way to respond to things. I noted a way she responded to floral print in 2009 is so different with the way she responded a year later. She can play edgy in a time and at the other time chooses girly dancer-off-duty as her muse. As I recall, she dances a lot in her photos and that brings her back to her inner child. Even when it comes to her life, it's also a wonderland. I mean, learning to fly, holiday in a scenic places, and a dash of unusual-wisdom here and there.
A fashion potential that is already shine brightly contrasting her age as well as her wisdom in her world of wonder. A fashionable juxtapose, I might say.

ie.) "How do I add a picture?" - and answer questions like "Do the photos have to be already posted on a website somewhere else or can they be uploaded directly to this site?"

Does anyone see any issues with running an Engel boat set up for 12V SLA batteries on a 14.4V NiMh battery pack?
The dive modules that I got show the motors as rated at 6V, but the piston enclosure says its a 12V unit. I want to get away from the lead-acid batteries and throw in a nice, tight NiMh battery pack. That will give a bit more oomph to the drive motor, which I'm pretty sure will handle it, but I'm worried about the TMAX dive board incorrectly reading voltage for the low battery mode.
Any thoughts?

Alvin, like Wheaties, is a General Mills product
April 11, 2005 Minneapolis (Minn) Star Tribune
Ever notice that in every bowl of Cheerios, some sink to the bottom of the bowl? They're just behaving like another General Mills product, the research submarine Alvin.
Alvin was built in Minneapolis, at 2003 E. Hennepin Av., for the U.S. Navy and launched in 1964 by its operator, the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts. The Navy turned to the Twin Cities cereal manufacturer because it had made precision equipment for the military during World War II and research balloons afterward.
In a way, General Mills can be likened to the Piccards, a Minnesota-connected family with members who were pioneers in exploring the stratosphere as well as the ocean. Jacques Piccard took his U.S. Navy-owned bathyscaphe Trieste down more than 35,000 feet in 1960, still the deepest dive in history.
Alvin's chief designer was General Mills engineer Harold Froehlich, now retired from 3M Co. and living in St. Anthony.
Named after oceanographer Allyn (Al) Vine, with a nod to the chipmunk portrayed in the novelty songs, Alvin for 40 years has been the main U.S. underwater research vessel, capable of diving to about 14,000 feet, four times deeper than a conventional sub. Its missions have made it famous, especially when in:
• 1966 it retrieved a lost H-bomb off the Spanish coast.
• 1977 it carried scientists on the discovery of giant tube worms on the Pacific floor.
• 1986 it explored the wreck of the Titanic with Robert Ballard.
Alvin has been continually updated and virtually rebuilt. A successor is finally in the works, a vessel capable of a 21,000-foot descent. It is expected to be launched in 2008.

Braves hoping to shut down Giants' offense
Lincecum set to oppose Medlen in series finale at AT&T Park
Through the last couple of games matching two of the National League's powerhouses, the Giants have brought plenty of offensive power to their house against the Braves.
With two games that featured contributions throughout the lineup, the Giants have combined to outscore the Braves 18-3 in the last two games of their four-game set, knocking strong starters Tim Hudson and Paul Maholm out of both games early after the Braves claimed the opener Thursday.
On Sunday, it will be Kris Medlen's turn to try to stem the tide of Giants runs while San Francisco right-hander Tim Lincecum takes the mound to try to follow the strong outings by Matt Cain on Friday night and Madison Bumgarner on Saturday.
If the Giants' offense continues to go the way it has the past couple of days, Lincecum could figure on having plenty of support.
"It's nice to have a little bit of a cushion like that again," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "We don't do this very often, but it makes it easier."
In Medlen, the Giants will be facing a Braves starter who has been excellent not only lately but dating back to 2012. Since the 2012 All-Star break, Medlen has posted a 1.68 ERA in 19 starts -- the lowest ERA in the Majors during that time span. But Medlen has just one victory to show for his efforts this season.
Medlen's last outing against the Giants came last year, when he allowed one hit and one walk in one relief inning. Overall, he has gone 0-2 with a 4.50 ERA in six career outings vs. San Francisco, including one start.
Lincecum, meanwhile, is once again trying to find a positive groove, having recorded just two quality starts among his first seven outings. He gave up five runs on nine hits in seven innings against Philadelphia his last time out, and he owns a 6-5 record and a 3.28 ERA against Atlanta for his career.
Braves: McCann likes facing Lincecum
After getting a scheduled day off Saturday, catcher Brian McCann will be in the lineup Sunday as one of Lincecum's top nemesis batters. He is batting .345 (10-for-29) with four doubles and a homer against Lincecum, and he is batting .330 (29-for-88) with four homers (including two this week) at AT&T Park for his career.
Interim manager Carlos Tosca says the way McCann is swinging the bat now is encouraging after the six-time All-Star struggled through shoulder discomfort most of last season.
"This guy looks like the guy who won all of the Silver Slugger Awards, whereas before you could see it was bothering him," Tosca said. "To his credit, he has worked real hard."
Giants: Scutaro keeps scooting along
From the time they got him in August all the way through October last year, the Giants knew Marco Scutaro as a hitting machine in the No. 2 spot. After a bit of a rough start to the 2013 season, he's back in that mode.
With two more hits Saturday, Scutaro extended his hitting streak to 11 games, batting .488 (21-for-43) with 10 runs scored during the streak.
"It's more of a case that he's healthy," Bochy said. "That back issue's not there right now. He got that cleared up, and it freed him up and he's back to feeling the way he felt last year when he was swinging good, and that's 100 percent."
Worth noting
• Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez will be back at the helm Sunday after missing two games attending his daughter's college graduation.
• Following Sunday's game, the Giants will embark on a road trip that will include their first Interleague games of the season, a two-game set at Toronto that begins Tuesday. The Braves continue on to Arizona, where Justin Upton will have his homecoming to the club that drafted him.
• The Braves and Giants will meet again next month, when the Giants visit Turner Field for three games June 14-16.

New 'Django Unchained' Pics Highlight Jamie Foxx, Kerry Washington, Leonardo DiCaprio & Franco Nero
Tarantino.info has uncovered this new collection of images from Quentin Tarantino's revenge-tinged spaghetti western, 'Django Unchained.' The images highlight fresh looks at Jamie Foxx's Django, Leonardo DiCaprio's Calvin Candie, Christoph Waltz's Dr. King Schultz, Samuel L. Jackson's Stephen, Kerry Washington's Broomhilda von Shaft, Walton Goggins' Billy Crash, Don Johnson's Spencer Gordon Bennet and Franco Nero.
In the 'Django Unchained,' Jamie Foxx plays the eponymous hero, a slave who is liberated and taught the tricks of the trade by a German bounty hunter (Christoph Waltz). Django's real desire is to be reunited with his wife (Kerry Washington), who winds up in a variety of unsavory places and whose travails drive the plot. It leads to a confrontation in Candyland, a ranch owned by the notorious Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio).
'Django Unchained' also stars Tarantino regular Samuel L. Jackson, who plays the role of Stephen, Calvin Candie's valet who keeps the slaves in line at Candie's residence. The likes of Gerald McRaney, Dennis Christopher, Laura Cayouette, Laura Cayouette, Tom Savini, M.C. Gainey, Misty Upham, Franco Nero, Walton Goggins, Jonah Hill and Don Johnson co-star. The film will pay homage to the Sergio Corbucci original 'Django,' Takashi Miike's 'Sukiyaki Western Django' – which features Tarantino, and Elmore Leonard's novel '40 Lashes Less One.' My hopes are ridiculously high for this film. Tarantino + spaghetti western = YES PLEASE! 'Django Unchained' arrives in cinemas December 25th in the US and January 18th, 2013 in the UK. Check out the official synopsis for 'Django Unchained' below the rest of the images.
Set in the South two years before the Civil War, "Django Unchained" stars Academy Award®-winner Jamie Foxx as Django, a slave whose brutal history with his former owners lands him face-to-face with German-born bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz (Academy Award®-winner Christoph Waltz). Schultz is on the trail of the murderous Brittle brothers, and only Django can lead him to his bounty. The unorthodox Schultz acquires Django with a promise to free him upon the capture of the Brittles – dead or alive.
Success leads Schultz to free Django, though the two men choose not to go their separate ways. Instead, Schultz seeks out the South's most wanted criminals with Django by his side. Honing vital hunting skills, Django remains focused on one goal: finding and rescuing Broomhilda (Kerry Washington), the wife he lost to the slave trade long ago.
Django and Schultz's search ultimately leads them to Calvin Candie (Academy Award®-nominee Leonardo DiCaprio), the proprietor of "Candyland," an infamous plantation where slaves are groomed by trainer Ace Woody (Kurt Russell) to battle each other for sport. Exploring the compound under false pretenses, Django and Schultz arouse the suspicion of Stephen (Academy Award®-nominee Samuel L. Jackson), Candie's trusted house slave. Their moves are marked, and a treacherous organization closes in on them. If Django and Schultz are to escape with Broomhilda, they must choose between independence and solidarity, between sacrifice and survival…
Written and directed by Academy Award®-winner Quentin Tarantino, DJANGO UNCHAINED is produced by Stacey Sher, Pilar Savone and Reginald Hudlin. The executive producers are Harvey and Bob Weinstein, Michael Shamberg, Shannon McIntosh, and James Skotchdopole. DJANGO UNCHAINED will be released in the U.S. on December 25, 2012, and internationally by Sony Pictures Releasing International.
DJANGO UNCHAINED cast: Jamie Foxx as Django, Leonardo DiCaprio as Calvin Candie, Christoph Waltz as Dr. King Schultz, Kerry Washington as Broomhilda, Samuel L. Jackson as Stephen, Laura Cayouette as Lara Lee Candie-Fitzwilly, Dennis Christopher as Leonide Moguy, Don Johnson as Spence, 'Big Daddy' Bennett, M.C. Gainey as Big John Brittle, Tom Savini as Tracker Cheney, Anthony LaPaglia as Jano, James Remar as Ace Speck, Walton Goggins as Billy Crash, Tom Wopat as Marshall Gill Tatum, and Misty Upham as Minnie.

I'll pass. Usually when the commercial version is crap, it carries onto the free version.
Looking forward to your thoughts on it though.
The free Linspire distro -- Freespire, has finally come out with Beta 1. Has anyone tried it out yet?
Release Notes: http://wiki.freespire.org/index.php/Release_Notes
Downloading now to give it a try, for whatever its worth.
I'll pass. Usually when the commercial version is crap, it carries onto the free version.
Looking forward to your thoughts on it though.
Installer: Just like the one on Linspire Five O. Easy to use, takes practically no time at all, doesn't allow selecting individual packages to install. Took only like 4 minutes for install (though that was on a beefed up quad core system).
Desktop Usage: Just like Linspire.... They did do a nice job with the theme to attract beginning users and what not. Some of the icons I think are simply awful. It comes bloated a lot with CNR items.
Need I say more on this matter? From what I had done with it so far. I can only see Freespire working out for those that are definitely computer illiterate.
Is there a reason sites like that save images as a GIF? I mean... they are dithered as heck, and a JPG would not take more space.
Either way, that does look like a rather boring distro, unless you are a complete noob and are unwilling to learn actual Linux.
I don't know what it is... that OS has always been appalling. Of course, I've never actually used it, so I may not have a ground to stand on.
Here are some of the Phoronix ones -- http://www.phoronix.com/vr.php?view=7011
I gave the second beta release a try on my Intel. I can't believe how much outdated software they package into a single distro! The kernel is older than my ASUS P5WD2-E Premium, so the sky2 module is non-existant. Basically, that means I was without internet on that system.
Also, even though the usb audio module existed and was probed, JACK would not pick up on it.. so no internet OR sound.
19 month old version of KDE..
I dunno... I agree with Michael. I really think this is for complete PC novices...

I love cash. As an investor, nothing makes me happier than a company that returns money to shareholders, rather than spending it recklessly on a CEO's pet projects or an ill-fated acquisition. Historically, investors have often looked at a stock's dividend yield to identify these shareholder-friendly enterprises. But I prefer a slightly different metric -- one proven to further maximize investor returns.
A 2007 study in The Journal of Finance suggests that investors should also factor net share repurchases into the equation, through a metric called the net payout ratio. According to the authors of the study, this ratio not only identifies companies that are paying back investors, but also predicts future equity returns better than the dividend yield.
Let's crunch the numbers
To find the net payout yield, start by adding up all the cash the company spends on both dividends and share buybacks. Next, subtract its share issuances. Finally, divide the resulting number by the company's current market cap.
The ratio that you end up with represents the percent of each invested dollar that a company is returning to shareholders. This simple calculation handily allows us to adjust for shares issued through employee stock options and other forms of shareholder dilution. Some companies will spend a lot of money buying back shares just to counteract the dilutive effect of their stock compensation programs, without creating any value for shareholders.
Here are the net payout yields for a few companies in the drug store industry:
Company |
Net Payout Yield (TTM) |
Dividend Payments (TTM) |
Net Share Repurchases (TTM) |
Market Cap |
CVS Caremark (NYSE: CVS ) |
11.1% |
$459 |
$3,673 |
$37,304 |
Walgreen (NYSE: WAG ) |
4.4% |
$519 |
$655 |
$26,587 |
Rite Aid (NYSE: RAD ) |
0% |
$0 |
$0 |
$789 |
Source: Capital IQ, a division of Standard & Poor's. Payout yield is author's calculation. All dollar figures in millions. TTM = trailing 12 months.
It's also interesting to look at the emphasis that each company puts on dividends versus stock buybacks:
How powerful is this payout?
Based on the analysis above, both CVS Caremark and Walgreen look like potential buys for investors searching the drug store industry for a stock with a solid net payout yield. As you can see from the data above, these companies have made a strong commitment to returning cash to shareholders.
Keep in mind that this data only looks at trailing-12-month numbers, so it does not correct for recent changes in a company's dividend or buyback policy. While dividends tend to remain fairly stable, share buybacks can vary substantially from year to year. Investors should also look at a company's dividend payout ratio to make sure the dividend is sustainable, and examine historical buyback patterns to ensure that the buybacks aren't a one-time event. If you can build a diversified portfolio with a few of these high-yielders, healthy returns -- and plenty of cash -- are likely to follow.

Adult Reading and WritingOne in five adults in the United States does not read well enough to read the Bible. Teaching someone else to read and write opens doors enabling the tutor to share Christ's love and plan of redemption. Mission Ministries department volunteers in techniques to begin and support Adult Reading and Writing ministries.
Tutoring Children and Youth Lack of reading skills is the primary cause of drop-outs among school age youth. Tutoring Children and Youth (TCY) is designed to prevent illiteracy and keep students in school. It also provides a wonderful opportunity for tutors to develop a relationship with a student that will enable the tutor to share God's love and redemption. The Mission Ministries Department trains local volunteers in techniques to begin and support a TCY ministry.
Conversational English More than 500,000 immigrants come to this country each year. Many do not speak English and have difficulty understanding our culture. Teaching someone else to speak English provides opportunities for sharing God's love and redemption. Each year new churches are started as a result of this ministry. The Mission Ministries Department trains volunteer leaders in techniques to begin and support a Conversational English ministry.

That was a really long-winded way to basically say, "Fuck you, Linus!"
Phoronix: NVIDIA PR Responds To Torvalds' Harsh Words
NVIDIA's PR department has issued a statement following the harsh comments by Linus Torvalds last week where he referred to the graphics company as the single worst company they have ever dealt with, called them out on not supporting Optimus, and other issues...
That was a really long-winded way to basically say, "Fuck you, Linus!"
I think the "free & open" fanatics sometimes confuse the difference between a project and a product. NVidia offers products, not projects. They manage to make their products work within the confinements of a kernel that basically only supports in-kernel drivers. It's quite a challenge, but they come through with a product that works.
NVIDIA just disrespects the Linux kernel ecosystem. Some people don't care because they're quite
happy with the features of the NVIDIA blob, which is admittedly the best blob around.
Calling those that do care fanatics right away is ignorant, isn't it?
Nobody asks NVIDIA to open up their driver. What's keeping them from releasing at least parts
of the documentation as AMD does? I think it would be widely accepted if a company keeps
their blob in parallel to a community driven OSS driver based on documentation. If NVIDIA wants
to be in the Linux game they should play by the rules.
Last edited by entropy; 06-19-2012 at 01:56 PM.
Saying the newly introduced options for the nvidia installer helped bumblebee is more or less a joke because when you use packaged drivers those options are not used at all. They should have known better as the number of laptops with Optimus is increasing very much. Just ignore that fact and wait till another one tries to find a workaround is not good. Certainly the drivers for desktop systems work very well but they should have done much for Optimus support.
Linus criticized from a Linux kernel developer point of view. He didn't say: "Fu**in' artifacts and frame drops when I'm pawning noobs in ETQW"
The PR, as usual, gave a canned response that is only marginally related to the main issue.
nVidia is full of crap. Let's take a look at all of the Android based hardware out there on the Tegra 2 that has been forgotten about and left behind because we have NO DRIVERS for their hardware. O2X, G2X, Viewsonic GTab, etc... All we want is open drivers that can be used to implement hardware acceleration but NOOOOOO... nVidia is too engrossed in being ass hats to give us that.
Dafuq? That's all they have to say?
Pffft, go fool yourself, NVidia!

Any information about the Catalyst version in Hardy or when the freeze for such drivers will occur?
There is so much progress with fglrx at the moment (at least if you compare it to the pre AMD time) and Gutsy shipped with 8.37.6 which was released in May, 4 month before Gutsy itself. It would be a pity to have a LTS Ubuntu without a proprietary AMD driver being able to handle AIGLX well and for that, some more bugfix releases are to follow.

Therapeutic abortion is a procedure to end a pregnancy. It is done before the fetus is able to survive on its own. A surgical therapeutic abortion is done using one of three methods:
- Manual vacuum aspiration (MVA)
- Dilation and suction curettage ( D&C )
- Dilation and evacuation (D&E)
Reasons for Procedure
A therapeutic abortion may be done to:
- Preserve the mother's physical or mental health
- End a pregnancy that tests have shown would result in a child with severe abnormalities
Possible Complications
These procedures are very safe. But, no procedure is free of risk. Problems resulting from abortion can include:
- An incomplete procedure
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Injury to the cervix or other organs
- Reaction to anesthesia
The earlier in a pregnancy the abortion is done, the better the chances of a procedure with no complications.
If you think you might be pregnant, see your doctor. The earlier you find out, the more time you have to make an informed choice about the pregnancy. Early symptoms of pregnancy include:
- A missed period
- Tender, swollen breasts
- Fatigue
- Nausea or vomiting
- Increased sensitivity to odors
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Your doctor may:
- Examine you—to determine the stage of your pregnancy by checking the size of the uterus (womb)
- Do blood and urine tests—to confirm the pregnancy
- Use ultrasound—to give an accurate assessment of the stage of pregnancy
- Give you medicine—to help dilate the cervix
Talk to your doctor about your medicines. You may be asked to stop taking some medicines up to one week before the procedure, like:
- Aspirin or other anti-inflammatory drugs
- Blood thinners
Local anesthesia with sedation may be used. The local anesthesia will numb the cervix. Sedation will help you relax. In some cases, regional or general anesthesia may be used.
Description of Procedure
You may be given an antibiotic before the procedure.
The doctor may inject a numbing agent in or near the cervix. Special tools will be used to stretch the cervix opening. A tube will be inserted into the uterus. The tube will then remove the contents.
The steps for an MVA will be followed. The doctor will then use a narrow metal loop to remove the tissue lining the uterine walls.
This procedure is similar to a D&C, except that it is done during the second trimester. It will also require wider dilation of the cervix. The fetus and other products of conception are removed from the uterus with medical instruments and suction. This usually requires regional or general anesthesia.
How Long Will It Take?
About 5-20 minutes
How Much Will It Hurt?
Women report cramps similar to menstrual cramps. Talk to your doctor about medicine to help manage discomfort.
Acetaminophen (such as Tylenol) or ibuprofen (such as Advil) can reduce most of these symptoms. Do not take aspirin unless directed to by your doctor.
Post-procedure Care
After a therapeutic abortion:
- You may have cramps and bleeding.
- You may also have nausea and diarrhea .
- You should not use vaginal medicines until your doctor allows it.
- Do not have sex for at least one week.
- Baths and showers are okay.
- You should recover within a couple of days.
- Make sure you return to see your doctor for follow-up.
Sudden hormone changes may intensify natural feelings of guilt, anger, sadness, and regret. Most doctors can offer or refer you to follow-up counseling, if you choose.
Call Your Doctor
After arriving home, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Increasing abdominal pain
- Heavy vaginal bleeding (soaking more than one pad per hour)
- Foul-smelling vaginal discharge
- Pain that is not helped by medicine, heat, and rest
- Persistent vomiting
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Pumpkin spiced overnight oats with pumpkin butter, banana, chia and spice in a jar (no cooking required!) I know what I'll be eating for breakfast every morning for the next few weeks.
I've been eating overnight oats in a jar all summer, it's perfect to make the night before and eat on a busy weekday or even to bring to work. A few weeks ago someone emailed me about making a pumpkin version which I thought would be perfect for the Fall.
This weekend I whipped up a half batch up pumpkin butter (aka- pumpkin heaven on a spoon) and I stirred it into my oats along with chia, bananas and pepitas (pumpkin seeds) and it was delightful! If you like your oats a little sweeter, you add a few drops of stevia, honey or maple, but for me it was just right.
Pumpkin season's back which prompted me to create a Pinterest board called Pumpkin Madness for all my pumpkin recipes. If you're pumpkin obsessed, you'll want to follow this board! I also have them all in the recipe index, which you can see here.

- pinch cinnamon
- pinch pumpkin pie spice
- 1/4 sliced banana (freeze the rest for smoothies)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- pinch cinnamon
- pinch pumpkin pie spice
- 1 tbsp raw hulled pepitas (or any nut)
Combine the oats and 1/2 cup of the milk in a jar. Stir in the pumpkin butter, chia seeds and spices. Add banana, cover jar, shake and refrigerate overnight.
The next morning remove from the refrigerator and let it sit on the counter 30 minutes to take out the chill (or you can microwave a few seconds if you wish). Stir in the remaining milk, sprinkle with a little cinnamon and pumpkin spice and top with pepitas. Enjoy!
