That's right: I've decided to take a vacation from Work-In-Progress Wednesday. I've been doing this linky for more than a year and a half now. It's a huge part of my blog—people tell me it motivates them to make progress on their unfinished projects, and I love that to pieces. But writing about my WIPs week in and week out gets a little old sometimes. And what better time to take a break than summer?
But no worries, I'm not leaving you hanging! I would hate for WIP Wednesday to go away entirely, even temporarily. So I've lined up a fabulous slate of guest bloggers who will be here at Freshly Pieced, posting about their own WIPs and hosting the linky, every Wednesday. Not only will I get a little WIP vacation (a VIP—vacation-in-progress?), but you'll get to see some different projects and maybe even meet a few new bloggers you'll love as much as I do! And I'm certainly not going away entirely—you're still stuck with my usual ramblings every other day of the week. : )
Here's this summer's WIP Wednesday Guest Blogger schedule, so you can see who's going to be the hostess with the mostest each week.
June 20 - Amy from Sukie - Don't You Know Who I Am?
June 27 - Felicity from Felicity Quilts
July 4 - Jessica from SewCraftyJess
July 11 - Kati from From the Blue Chair
July 18 - Taryn from From Pixels to Patchwork
July 25 - Colleen from The Busy Bean
August 1 - Katie from Katie's Korner
August 8 - Bethany from Make Me A Quilt
August 15 - Cindy from Live a Colorful Life
August 22 - Rebecca from Pieces and Cream
August 29 - Michelle from City House Studio
September 5 - Emily from Mommy's Nap Time
September 12 - I'm back!
So keep those WIPs coming! And while you're at it, go ahead and link up this week's. Here are the rules:

You know, the widely used dynamic language that was one of Parrot's two original target languages, which happens to have been ported and runs well on several other platforms, including the JVM and
You know, the one which lead to Dan Sugalski getting pie in the face when he couldn't even get the benchmark to run correctly, let alone run faster than the native C platform as promised.
I think that claim should be eliminated from Parrot's description until it is able to run Python.
See the Pynie repository [bitbucket.org] and the list of languages running in whole or in part on Parrot [parrot.org].
The fact that a port has been started does not mean it is useful.
Pynie looks like a recent attempt to start porting a version of Python that is not in widespread use. Pirate would be the attempt to port the version of Python that is actually used widely, and its current status is pretty useless.
I have respect for Allison, but she isn't done. Therefore I reiterate. Until there are actual, useful ports of the most popular, widely used, and widely ported dynamic languages out there, I think that claiming th
I think that claiming that Parrot supports all dynamic languages is false advertising.
Whoever said that Parrot 2.0 currently runs all dynamic languages in full? Certainly I never did.
A decade in the claim is an embarrassment.
Project management is easy if you have a time machine and an army of fungible volunteers.
I don't get it
I take it you weren't at Sam Ruby's OSCON talk a few years back where he gave a post mortem on why the Pirate effort failed.
The fact of failure is one thing. The reasons for that failure are quite another. The historical importance of that failure adds even more weight.
The historical importance of that failure adds even more weight.
Parrot is a very different project than it was in 2004 and 2005.
I'm aware of that fact and consider it a generally good thing. But I'll need to see actual success before my opinions about the project change substantially.
I would recognize success for the platform as a whole if Parrot is the default platform for a widely used language. A relatively objective definition of "widely used" could be that it shows on the TIOBE top 20 list. (Yes, I know all of the problems with that index. Still it is better than nothing.)
My definition of success for the goals the platform
Now your song has changed from "Don't claim you run all dynamic languages!" (demonstrably untrue) to "You're not successful in Tillylandia until you run Python and Ruby as well as the DLR and JVM do, as measured by an unreproducable statistic widely debunked!"
You're welcome to have your own goals for the project, but as with every project, the goals a project meets are often the goals of those who contribute in some fashion. If the volunteers doing actual work don't meet your goals, well, I consider that n
You're a great one for setting up straw men so you can knock them down, aren't you?
Until Parrot can run at least one of the two original target languages, I consider its stated goal of aiming to support all dynamic languages an embarrassment. At the current point it runs neither, and there are no plans in place that I can see to change that. (Though you recently started a project to try to run the designated successor of one of the two original target languages.)
Getting from the point of embarrassment to
And this is why I should always preview.
You're a great one for setting up straw men so you can knock them down, aren't you?
No, Ben. You are the one with the bizarre definitions of standard English words such as "run" and "plan":
At the current point it runs neither (Perl 6 or Python), and there are no plans in place that I can see to change that.
If you want to deny that Lua, Python, Tcl, Ruby, Scheme, Common Lisp, JavaScript, and a handful of other languages indeed exist and run on Parrot and pass tests on Parrot and interoperate on Parrot, t

Phoronix: XreaL Is Switching To The Enemy Territory Engine
As was reported earlier this week, id Software has open-sourced Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory and Return To Castle Wolfenstein. Opening up these older games under the GNU GPL was done as part of id's long-standing tradition of putting out the code into the public domain once it makes sense for them a few years after their succeeding engine updates have fully replaced them in the marketplace. The developers behind ioquake3, the project that's based around the Quake 3 engine that was previously opened up by id Software, is already working on iowolfet and iortcw forks to incorporate this new code, but other free software developers are already utilizing this code too...
"The grass and the trees are animated using the GPU. The scene renders at 60 fps on a Geforce 8800 and each frame contains up to 1 000 000 polygons." Amazing. o.O
Someone over there commented "looks like Crysis". Indeed.
well i guess foss games might get more love after seeing such video!
I was rather impressed with that video.
One critique though: the shadows were very hard :/
The title for the article is very misleading; it suggests that XreaL is using Enemy Territory code for its own base, which isn't true - the title should read "XreaL renderer being ported to Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory GPL source." or something along those lines.
I was thinking, at last! I recall the first screenshots for Crysis from a few years ago, where the shadows were dark grey(!), not black. WTF...
If you stand in the sunshine it is very hard to detect what is in the shadows, so, I think it more correct with black, hard shadows.
Oh, I see. You mean the margins of the shadows. Hmmm, that is Carmack specialty, not releasing them yet. They will come in id Tech5.
Sadly at the same time the Xreal game was also cancelled, so someone has to step up and start a project to use the engine for an actual game, create the artwork, design the levels, work out the balancing.

Looking for Headphones?
Start shoppingVideo: Crutchfield Listening Station: AKG K 272 HD headphones
Crutchfield Advisor Ringo talks about the AKG K 272 HD around-the-ear headphones and why the AKG name is so well-known to professional musicians.
Ringo: Here at Crutchfield, we've set up what is called a listening station where we can really take advantage of trying out each individual set of headphones that we have to offer you. We've gotten really good feedback from a lot of the sales advisers on the floor not only being able to hear them for themselves, but to be able to translate that to the customer on the phone.
So one set of headphones I wanted to talk to you about are the AKG 272 HDs. These headphones are extremely lightweight and they're very comfortable around the ears to use. So you've probably heard about AKG. They're really used in the studio a lot. If you're a musician or an engineer, you've definitely come across the brand and I definitely think that they build a very good quality product.
And if you'd like to get our take on the best headphones here at Crutchfield give us a call. We'll be glad to help you out.

The New School for Social Research
The New School > The New School for Social Research NSSR > Object Relations, Transference and Containment
Apply Online | Contact
Object relations theory explores various ways in which the development of the self emerges out of the internalization of relationships with significant others. Although the origins of object relations theory can be traced to the writing of Freud and such colleagues as Sandor Ferenczi and Karl Abraham, the true pioneers of object relations theory were British psychoanalysts such as Melanie Klein, Ronald Fairbairn and Donald Winnicott. Of these three, Klein has had perhaps the deepest and most widespread influence on clinical thinking. Klein began her work as a child analyst, and her early encounters with child patients ultimately led to a fascination with what she came to see as the powerful and primitive underpinning of all psychic life. She attempted to develop a vision of human experience which accounted for a range of mental states, from normality and health all the way to the more severe forms of depression and psychosis. As part of this process she addressed the common human miseries of depression, envy, rage, loneliness and suspiciousness. Klein's thinking has a clinically rich and deeply intuitive quality to it but her writing can be obscure, unsystematic and dogmatic. Nevertheless, Klein and postKleinian thinkers as Herbert Rosenfeld, Elizabeth Spillius, Betty Joseph, John Steiner, and especially Wilfred Bion have made extremely important contributions our understanding of working with "hard to treat" patients and therapeutic impasses.
In the first portion of this seminar, we will work together to make theoretical and clinical sense of Klein's work with the assistance of two different interpretations (or reinterpretations) of Klein. The first was published in the mid-eighties by the American analyst, Thomas Ogden. The second, and more recent interpretation was published in 2001 by the British analyst, Meira Likierman.
In the second portion of this seminar we will focus on the highly influential concept of containment that was developed by Wilfred Bion, arguably the most important postKleinian theorist. The concept of containment has proved to be extremely helpful for deepening our clinical understanding of working with therapeutic impasses, and managing unbearable states of mind which emerge for both patients and therapists. As is the case with many aspects of Kleinian and postKleinian thinking, however, discussions of concept of containment can tend towards obscurity. We will thus explore various ways of thinking about the process of containment that are consistent with mainstream psychological thinking and are and are both theoretically rigorous and clinically meaningful.

Sport Solar Oven
Redirected from SOS Sport
this wiki
The SPORT Solar Oven, manufactured by the Solar Oven Society is amazingly effective because of its innovative design features. Here are four of them:
State-of-the-Art Insulation
Good insulation is the most critical requirement for a great performing solar oven. The Sport insulation has an excellent R 6.5 value. It is reinforced with glass fibers to protect it from heat degradation and help it resist crushing.
The Sport insulation material will not absorb water. It is composed of thousands of tiny, sealed, air holes that water cannot penetrate. This is a key design feature because moisture is always present in solar cooking as steam and humidity.
Exclusive Insulated Top
All solar ovens must let in sunlight. Most designs lack insulation in the lid resulting in heat loss during extended cooking times. The Sport lid is insulated with an innovative, exclusive, 1-inch air gap between the thicker molded lid and the taped on plastic film.
No Tip-Over
Tip-over from wind, rough terrain or slope can be a major issue in solar cooking. The broad footprint and low center of gravity of the Sport make it aerodynamically and physically stable.
Optional Reflectors
The Sport comes with optional higher grade polished aluminum reflector panels that will last a lot longer than the original corrugated plastic adhesive reflector panels that were with the oven from the beginning, this is a major upgrade.
Summer & Winter Cooking Positions
The Sport is designed to cook in two positions: a 60-degree slant for a lower angle sun, (winter) and a 30-degree slant for direct, overhead sun, (summer).
The 60-degree slant happens when the oven is placed on its back, and requires slightly smaller pots than come with the kit.
[show]News and recent developmentsEdit
- March 2006: Last year, 300 unassembled SPORT solar ovens were purchased by St. Edwards Catholic Church of Bloomington, Minnesota (USA) for the community of Jinotega. The cookers were assembled locally under the direction of volunteers Sue Kellet and Andrew Knutson, who were also responsible for trainings. SPORTs were sold to families at a subsidized price of $10. Staples like rice, beans and bananas were popular solar dishes. Other solar foods included chicken dishes, vegetable stews with milk, and cooked mangos. One solar cook commented that the mangos cooked better in the solar cooker than over a fire. More information...

This cooker can be purchased from the Solar Oven Society.

The show (no music, just entertainment) is hosted by Gregg "Free Beer" Daniels, Chris "Hot Wings" Michaels, Eric Zane, Producer Joe and Steve.
A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE FREE BEER & HOT WINGS SHOW. The Free Beer & Hot Wings Show began as an afternoon show in Omaha, NE at non-commercial radio station KIWR in March of 1997. The Show was comprised of two, former Central Michigan University roommates who eventually moved to mornings several months later where they remained until the summer of 2000 when they moved to WBON in Knoxville, TN. It was there that they met the show's eventual 3rd member and other CMU grad, Eric Zane, who was, at the time, their direct competitor at WIMZ. When Zane was fired, he immediately drove across town and joined The Free Beer & Hot Wings Show. In June of 2002, The Show moved to New Jersey, where they were simulcast on WTHK in Trenton and WCHR on The Jersey Shore. The Free Beer & Hot Wings Show began full syndication in 2004 with the addition of WGRD in Grand Rapids, MI and is now heard on radio stations in 25 different states.
WHERE DID THE NAME COME FROM? Instead of calling the show, The Gregg & Chris Show, which by all estimations would have been the most boring sounding radio show in the world, the decision was made to call it The Free Beer & Hot Wings Show, which seemed far more attention grabbing. It was admittedly nothing more than a cheap ploy to get people to listen under the false pretense that they may actually have a chance to win beer and/or hot wings. However, it was not intended that those two things would become permanently synonymous and attached to Gregg and Chris as nicknames, but that's what happened and now they have to live with the consequences of their B.S. forever. Also, the reason Zane wasn't given a food name is that, when he joined the show, he was already a well-known personality and frankly, another food name would have just been an overkill of stupidity.

Manchester was the main area for the industrial revolution in the 1800s that today has transformed into a youthful university city full of culture. The city is clearly proud of its past, since the former industrial area of Castlefield, built on the ruins of the Roman Empire, has been skilfully and beautifully modernised. Walking routes winding along the canals and traditional British pubs with beer gardens offer a perfect setting for relaxation on Sunday afternoons.
The museums in this city, the second largest in England, are top notch. Among the best museums are the Lowry Art Gallery, the Imperial War Museum North and the Museum of Science and Technology. Manchester is also the birthplace of a lot of popular music, with the songs of Manchester natives The Smiths, Stone Roses and Oasis still being played at alternative clubs of the Northern Quarter. In the home town of the world's most famous football team, don't pass up the opportunity to learn a little about the beautiful game: you'll have access to the Old Trafford Stadium with a Premium League ticket or by taking a guided tour.
The airport is located 16 km south of Manchester.

About seventeen years after Second St Brewery raised money to grow their business, they discovered an error and immediately reported it to the New Mexico Securities Division. The parties entered into a Consent Order where Second Street Brewery agreed to pay a $500 fine.
November 2014
On November 20, 2014 the Securities Division issued a Notice of Contemplated Action to BOSC, Inc. and Thomas Wayne Hayes. This was a result of a long-term, ongoing investigation into the alleged mismanagement and improper investments made by Bernalillo County Treasurer's Office ("BCTO"). In summary, Tom Hayes ("Hayes") and his employer BOSC, Inc. (dba Bank of Albuquerque) failed to ensure that investments made by BCTO were in line with the written investment policy and made recommendations that were not suitable. Hayes continued to sell bonds to the county based on yield with no concern of safety or liquidity. Hayes's conduct went against BOSC's policies and procedures. Further, BOSC failed to supervise Hayes and his sales practices and did not prevent or detect violations of suitability of recommendations. It is proposed that Hayes will be permanently barred from transacting business in New Mexico; BOSC will be suspended from conducting business in New Mexico as a broker-dealer until their supervisory system is adequate to prevent or detect violations; $10,000 fines will be assessed against BOSC and Hayes for each violation of the New Mexico Securities Act; BOSC and Hayes will each pay $10,000 towards the cost of the investigation.
On November 20, 2014 the Securities Division issued a Notice of Contemplated Action to Oppenheimer & Co., Inc. ("Oppenheimer") and Royce O. Simpson ("Simpson"). This was a result of a long-term, ongoing investigation into the alleged mismanagement and improper investments made by Bernalillo County Treasurer's Office ("BCTO"). Oppenheimer terminated Simpson in February 2014 during an internal review of the servicing of the BCTO account. In summary, Simpson was granted an unfair advantage over other broker-dealer agents in competing for BCTO's business. Simpson and Oppenheimer failed to ensure that solicited investments offered to BCTO were suitable and in line with the written investment policy of the county. The county's priorities were "safety, liquidity and yield." Ultimately, BCTO had an overconcentration of long-term of Government Sponsored Enterprise bonds with 10 to 20 year maturities, leaving it at a greater risk for interest rate and liquidity risk. Neither Oppenheimer nor Simpson disclosed that the recommendations were not suitable. Oppenheimer's supervisory system failed to reasonably detect or prevent violations. It is proposed that Simpson will be permanently barred from transacting business in New Mexico; Oppenheimer will be suspended from conducting business in New Mexico as a broker-dealer until their supervisory system is adequate to prevent or detect violations; $10,000 fines will be assessed against Oppenheimer and Simpson for each violation of the New Mexico Securities Act; Oppenheimer and Simpson will each pay $10,000 towards the cost of the investigation.
August 2014
While conducting an examination on an Albuquerque based firm, it was determined that while a copy of the firm's Privacy Policy was available online, it was not being sent to clients annually. In addition, client files were being stored in a non-locking credenza. The firm has since set in place a plan to meet the annual requirement to deliver a copy of the privacy policy to all clients. Locking file cabinets have been purchased for the storage of client information.
An examination of an Albuquerque Investment Advisor revealed a lack of security for client's non-public identifying information. Old client records were being stored in an open area in cardboard file boxes and non-locking file cabinets in an open kitchen/storage area. Advisor was instructed to store these items in locking file cabinets or a locked storage room to further ensure client's private information.
A review of the books and records of an Albuquerque Investment Advisor revealed a lack of contract with clients. The firm primarily acts as a solicitor for third-party investment advisory firms. The firm would deliver the third-party agreements and have the clients sign, they did not have their own investment advisory agreement with the clients. The firm has since created an investment advisory contract that all clients are required to enter into t conduct business with the advisor.
July 2014
An examination of a Santa Fe Investment Advisor determined that a solicitor was being paid an ongoing fee for client referrals and was not registered as an investment advisor. The registered investment advisor and the individual receiving the referral fees were sent notification of the apparent violation of 184.108.40.206 NMAC. In addition, there were no written policies and procedures, a violation of Rule 126.96.36.199A.(17) NMAC. This had been noted in a previous examination, but not corrected. The firm was charged the cost of the examination.
During the review of a Registered Investment Advisor's trade blotter and fee invoices, it was discovered that the advisor was withdrawing surrender-free money from accounts for which a client was paying a percentage of assets under management and purchasing annuity add-ons for which a commission was earned for the same period, a violation of NMAC 12.11.7K(2). When the overbilling was detected, the client was contacted and the advisory fee was credited to the client.
Alan R. Wilson, the Division Director, after hearing, sustained the Division's Cease & Desist issued to Jerome Beery (Respondent), a resident of Los Alamos. The Director found that between 2007-2013, Respondent sold unregistered promissory notes to multiple New Mexico residents and used money from investors to pay personal expenses and not for any legitimate investment purpose. The Director made a preliminary order that barred Respondent from raising capital in New Mexico. The Director also assessed a $5000 fine and $1000 in costs.
Final Order Beery
While reviewing the records of an Investment Advisory firm with multiple advisors, it was discovered that individual investment advisors were not disclosing their outside business activities. They also did not disclose personal bankruptcies as required. The team was operating without a designated supervisor that had passed the Series 24 or had a designation waiver. All disclosures were updated and the owner obtained his Series 24 within the time frame establish by the New Mexico Securities Division, no further action was required.
Albuquerque based investment advisers Equity Advisers, LLC, and Sidney Evans (Respondents) entered into a Consent Agreement after the Division's investigation into Respondents' sale of unregistered investment contracts that were tied to VA benefits and disability payments during 2011-2012. Respondents, who were fiduciaries to their clients, admitted the investment contracts were unregistered securities and that the investment contracts were not suitable investments for their elderly clients. As part of the Consent Agreement, Respondents surrendered their licenses to sell securities in New Mexico and agreed to pay to a $ 40,000 partially suspended fine. http://www.abqjournal.com/317509/biz/nm-orders-halt-to-investment-scheme-involving-veterans-benefits.html
New Mexico residents RJ Braught and Arthur E. Trujillo (Respondents) entered into a Consent Agreement after the Division's concluded its investigation into Respondents' sale of unregistered investment agreements that they used to raise money for a real estate development project in Angel Fire, NM, in 2008. The investments promised to double an investor's money within a short period of time. The investment agreements also falsely stated that a national bank had approved funding for the project. Prior to the Consent Agreement, Respondents had made full or partial payment to a number of investors. Under the Consent Agreement, Respondents admitted that the investment agreements contained material misstatements. They also agreed to comply with the New Mexico Uniform Securities Act and to pay three investors a total of $52,000.
An examination of an Albuquerque Registered Investment Advisor showed the firm was operating with two advisors without the proper Series 24 licensed supervisor or professional designation waiver. The firm was given a deadline to sit for the Series 24 examination. The firm failed to do so on two separate occasions. One of the advisors had to voluntarily terminate from the firm through the IARD system. While the individual is still employed with the firm, they cannot give any investment advice to clients and now operates in an operational role.
During the examination of a SEC Investment Advisor firm who switched to state registration, the firm had an investment adviser representative who executed over 100 trades without being registered in New Mexico, in violation of the New Mexico Uniform Securities Act. The firm was fined $5,500 in civil and investigative costs and had to pay the $100 cost of the examination.
During the review of the firm's application, the firm transacted business in New Mexico without being licensed, in violation of the New Mexico Uniform Securities Act. The firm was fined $3,500 and had to pay registration fees in the amount of $350.
An Investment Advisor firm was recently examined after switching from SEC to state jurisdiction. The examination found the firm borrowed money and issued promissory notes to existing clients in violation of the New Mexico Uniform Securities Act. The firm was fined $7,500 and had to pay the $100 cost of the examination.

Newcastle Velodrome rained out!

Newcastle Velodrome rained out!Track racing is supposed to be an all weather sport.... not when its an outdoor track. Could I get a similar workout on a spin bike?
2008 Ridley Compact
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out! To the contrary. Track riders seemed to be most sensitive to rain. They are always the first to get off the track with that first drop of rain. Bianchi, Ridley, Montague, GT, Garmin and All things Apple
Yeah... A bit of rain makes for a slippery surface and when youre basically running slicks at speed or on those quick direction changes its very, very easy to come off.
Peugeot Ventoux : Viscount Sebring :
Bundy Trackie : Protour All Oldies 'cause steel is real.
I'd race on the road in the wet even if everyone else is too soft but never on the concrete track we have here in newcasle the thought of what happens if I come off the wall is always in the back of your mind when its dry let alone when its wet.
2008 Ridley Compact
Thats why we are lucky that our outdoor track has a bar right next to it!! It is never a lost cause going to track even if it does start raining
That being said - never a fan of riding track in the wet. Alternatively, build a roof on ya bike!
It is when its an indoor track like bankstown. Oh how I'd love to be racing on that track. so smooth! our track gets a little bit bumpy 2008 Ridley Compact
In newcastle of course .... but all jokes aside its actually directly across from the broadmeadow horse track on chatham road, its the big metal gates with velodrome across the top in rusty metal letters. 2008 Ridley Compact
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!Come on down to Tempe and I'll put a little water on the cote d'azure and let you ride on it. You'll realise very quickly when picking your sorry backside up off the deck why tracks and water don't mix.
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out! Errr... I was just stating a fact, fully realizing the reason why trackies don't hang around on a wet track. But if you are going to give me a CF Teschner to ride on, I'll even ride on the mid-field grass field if you so direct me to it. Bianchi, Ridley, Montague, GT, Garmin and All things Apple
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!at least it's nice to land on! Tempe concrete is hard. i know. i've landed on it before
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!Hi im thinking about giving the velodrome a go..
Dont have a track bike yet.. & I live about 10mins away from the broadmeadow velodrome so i shouldnt have any excuses anyone got advice in getting started Cheers
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!Head down to the track when they have a training session on and talk to them
Got bored of my signature
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!That's the best way too learn!
They may even have a bike you can hire, like they do at a local bike shop here in Caboolture. I have raced on dirt tracks at some Show grounds , around SEQ. on the track bike. That makes for interesting racing a fixed wheel and strapped in. You would be suprised how quick a dirt track used for trotting is. Gary I don't suffer fools easily and so long as you have done your best,you should have no regrets.
Goal 6000km
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!If the banks at Newcastle spook you (and they may) come have a go at Adcock Park velodrome in West Gosford. It doesn't have a bank at all really, but the racing there will help you fine tune your racecraft before you tackle the steeper banks.
Only problem is that racing doesnt start back up until October.
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!
They have training sessions on during the week, including one using road bikes on Wednesday nights. Please confirm with CCCC Got bored of my signature
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!Yep, they sure do. Mondays and Wednesdays, both roadbikes only. The exception is Monday where the trackies get 30 mins at the end before the lights turn off.
Gold coin donation and you need to have a CA license, or at the least a social training license (it's a club sanctioned training session)
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!
Paid a visit to my olds in Swansea this weekend and thought i'd checkout the Newcastle Velo today. Fwiw, it looks abandoned Cheers, Bas. Oh yeah, freaky steep banks "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!
Nope not abandoned, it gets alot of use I can assure you! Not just cyclists either, we turned up for track training on tuesday to find some guy shooting up in the stands - to be expected when its right across the road from housing commision But in all seriousness we race on wednesday night, And there are training sessions on tuesday morning & afternoon, thursday morning, and saturday morning. Plus individual sessions that myself and others organise.
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!
Say What ! Pls tell me it was just a teenager messing around with an air rifle and not an adult with a firearm. BTW mate, how steep are those Newcastle banks ? Just asking as i'm new to fixed and track and was kinda spooked Cheers, Bas. PS thinking about buying at Cooks Hill and leaving Inner Sydney "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
Re: Newcastle Velodrome rained out!Just realised on 2nd reading you meant drugs not ballistics and that's sad. Poor soul needs to feel the rush of adrenaline when pedal pumping as nothing comes close when on the limit.

Buying Tips
Take a break in the shadea canopy or screen room is a must for your next outing. Think about how you will use your canopy:
Pop-up or instant canopies are constructed of lightweight materials for simple assembly. These mild-weather canopies can be set up in a matter of minutes. They usually come with ground stakes for added sturdiness.
Beach shelters are designed for lounging ocean-side in the sand. For added utility, choose a shelter with sun-resistant vinyl. And your team can cool off on the benches beneath a team shelter, designed for use on the sidelines.
Expert Advice
Always consider the components of your shelter, most importantly the tarp and the frame.
Polyester tarps are durable and water-resistant, but not waterproof. If youre setting up a semi-permanent structure, look for a polyethylene tarp. This material is both waterproof and UV-ray resistant. Polyethylene canopies with vinyl coating are also flame-retarding.
Steel frames are sturdy and ultra-durable, but heavy. If youre looking for a structure thats easy to carry, look for an aluminum frame. This material is resistant to corrosion and rust but does not handle well in windy conditions.

Replacing Harvey, Torres faces Martin in series finale
Mets outfielder den Dekker to make Major League debut
As the Mets deal with the loss of Matt Harvey, the season must go on without him. Thursday marks Harvey's first turn in the rotation since the announcement of his partially torn UCL tear, and it will be right-hander Carlos Torres taking his spot, as New York looks to tie a four-game series against the Philles at Citi Field.
Torres' contract was selected from Triple-A Las Vegas on June 15, and he's made 26 appearances since. While most of those have come out of the bullpen, he will be making his fourth start of the season in place of Harvey, who missed time in June with a blister on his finger.
In those outings, Torres went 1-1 with a 6.43 ERA. However, eight of the 10 runs he allowed came in his last start, giving up one run and going at least five innings in each in the previous two. When Torres toes the rubber on Thursday, it will be the second time he's pitched in this series, after throwing 2/3 of an inning in Monday's 2-1 loss.
The Phillies will counter with right-hander Ethan Martin, who hopes to put his most recent outing behind him. After earning victories in two of his previous three starts, Martin didn't make it out of the first inning last Saturday against the D-backs, giving up three runs on three hits and three walks while recording just two outs.
Martin will be the first pitcher to face Matt den Dekker, who was called up by the Mets on Tuesday and will make his Major League debut on Thursday. Although manager Terry Collins has been pleased with the play of Juan Lagares in center field, the Mets want den Dekker to eventually take over the spot permanently. It's also the spot den Dekker played in the Minors, most recently for Triple-A Las Vegas, where he batted .296 with six homers and 38 RBIs in 53 games.
"First of all, you're going to see them out there together," Collins said of den Dekker and Lagares. "We're talking about the possibility of doing that tomorrow. I'm not sure it's going to happen tomorrow, but Matt's going to play tomorrow. He's going to play center field. I don't think it's really fair to Matt to play him in a game in a position he's not comfortable in."
Mets: Flores makes debut at second base
As the Mets contemplate what to do with Wilmer Flores once regular third baseman David Wright returns from the disabled list, Wednesday gave them an opportunity to try the 22-year-old at second base.
Although he played 79 games at second with Triple-A Las Vegas this season, he made each of his previous 16 starts at third while filling in for Wright since Aug. 6. Going 1-for-4 at the plate, Flores switched back to third base in the eighth inning on Wednesday.
Without calling it an audition, Collins said he wants to figure out what the best spot for Flores is at the Major League level.
"I wanted to get him in there," Collins said. "I wanted to get him in there here at home. I wanted to get him out there so we could take a look."
Phillies: Sandberg pleased with Ruf's versatility
Darin Ruf has done a lot for the Phillies lately, so manager Ryne Sandberg decided to give the utility man a night off on Wednesday. By the fifth inning, though, Ruf was back in action, pinch-hitting for Pete Orr and taking over in left field.
Along with left, Ruf has played in right field and at first base while hitting batting .263 with 19 RBIs and eight home runs for Philadelphia since his debut on July 6.
"He's handled it great," Sandberg said. "I saw him a little bit at first base during the spring and I liked his moves over there, so I wasn't surprised about first base. In left field, he struggled some in Spring Training and then gradually got better before he was sent down."
Wednesday snapped a streak of 33 straight starts for Ruf, marking the first time he wasn't in the starting lineup since July 21.
"He's done a heck of a job," Sandberg said. "He's played the schedule -- day games, night games. He's moved around to different positions and really played hard and maybe this is a day to quicken up his bat a little and then get him back after it. He's had a good string of games and it's a good thing [for a day off] because he's done well."
• After singling and pulling up lame on his way to first base in the seventh inning of Wednesday's game, Phillies third baseman Cody Asche exited with a mildly strained right hamstring. Before leaving, Asche extended his hitting streak to nine games.
Worth noting
• The Mets are just 2-6 on the current homestand, which ends Thursday.
• After Wednesday's win, the Phillies are still just 3-14 in their last 17 road games. However, they've won nine of their last 12 at Citi Field.
• The Phillies are in the midst of a stretch of 20 games in 20 days, with their next off-day coming Sept. 5. Philadelphia has gone 7-5 in the first 12 games.

FormThe jQuery Form Plugin allows you to easily and unobtrusively upgrade HTML forms to use AJAX. The main methods, ajaxForm and ajaxSubmit, gather information from the form element to determine how to manage the submit process. Both of these methods support numerous options which allows you to have full control over how the data is submitted. Submitting a form with AJAX doesn't get any easier than this!13. Foswiki (active)This is plugin takes care of loading the jQuery core and default plugins and performs any initialization steps specific to Foswiki, For instance, it reads all <meta> tags from the html head as they have been set by Foswiki and constructs thefoswiki javascript object to be used by other javascript

Any character not in the definitions list below is considered a mask literal. Mask literals will be automatically entered for the user as they type and will not be able to be removed by the user.21. MasonryMasonry is a layout plugin for jQuery. Think of it as the flip side of CSS floats. Whereas floating arranges elements horizontally then vertically, Masonry arranges elements vertically then horizontally according to a grid.

There is already one in jquery-ui, however as long as jquery-ui is still in flux, this alternative offers a safe substitute well integrated into Foswiki. Individual tabs can be loaded on demand using a REST call. Installing Foswiki:Extensions/RenderPlugin is recommended for that. Tabpanes can be nested. Tabs can be extended in height automatically. Heights can be auto-updated to follow windows resize events. Tabpanes can be established as part of reloaded content via ajax. Note that this widget does not participate in jquery-ui themerolling. It does match JQueryButton in terms of look & feel.37. TextboxListTurns a text input into a Facebook like list widget with autocompletion. This plugin adds a new formfield typetextboxlist to DataForms.
38. Themeswitcher39. TmpljQuery templates contain markup with binding expressions ('Template tags'). Templates are applied to data objects or arrays, and rendered into the HTML DOM Documentation for the jQuery Templates plugin can be found on the jQuery documentation site: http://api.jquery.com/category/plugins/templates Note: The jQuery team has decided not to take this plugin past beta. It is no longer being actively developed or maintained. The docs remain here for the time being (for reference) until a suitable replacement template plugin is ready. For more on the history of this change, see Official Plugins: A Change in the Roadmap and jQuery Templates and JsViews: The Roadmap40. TooltipDisplay a customized tooltip instead of the default one for every selected element. Tooltips can be added automatically to any element that has got attitle attribute thus replacing the standard tooltip as displayed by
the browsers with a customizable one.
Content can be reloaded using AJAX. For example, this can be used to
display an image preview in a tooltip. Have a look at the thumbnail REST
service of Foswiki:Extensions/ImagePlugin how to load the thumnail from the
backend dynamically.
41. TreeviewLightweight and flexible transformation of an unordered list into an expandable and collapsable tree, great for unobtrusive navigation enhancements. Supports both location and cookie based persistence. Subtrees can be loaded on demand using AJAX. See the Foswiki:Extensions/RenderPlugin how to implement such REST handlers easily.42. Twisty43. UIWidget collection for jQuery. This is the official user interface library.44. UI::Accordion45. UI::AutocompleteAutocomplete, when added to an input field, enables users to quickly find and select from a pre-populated list of values as they type, leveraging searching and filtering. By giving an Autocomplete field focus or entering something into it, the plugin starts searching for entries that match and displays a list of values to choose from. By entering more characters, the user can filter down the list to better matches.46. UI::Button47. UI::Datepicker48. UI::DialogA dialog is a floating window that contains a title bar and a content area. The dialog window can be moved, resized and closed with the 'x' icon by default. If the content length exceeds the maximum height, a scrollbar will automatically appear. A bottom button bar and semi-transparent modal overlay layer are common options that can be added. A call to$(foo).dialog() will initialize a dialog instance and will auto-open the dialog by default. If you want to reuse a dialog, the easiest way is to disable the "auto-open" option with:
$(foo).dialog({ autoOpen: false }) and open it with $(foo).dialog('open') . To close it, use $(foo).dialog('close') .
49. UI::Draggable50. UI::Progressbar51. UI::Resizable52. UI::Slider53. UI::Tabs54. ValidateVery powerful client-side form validation framework (article).55. WikiWordThis plugin allows to create a WikiWord on the base of a set of input elements. The value of these are concatenated and the result is normalized to be a valid WikiWord. For example, this can be used to derive a topic name from a free-form topic title text.Using compressed javascript and css filesAll jQuery plugins are shipped with uncompressed js and css files, as well as minified and gzip compressed. For instance the jquery.form plugin comes with the following set:
/wiki/pub/System/JQueryPlugin root directory that ensures all these
files are up to date. By default all files in the JQueryPlugin package are up to date, so you only have to
issue a make in the root directory if you wish to
modify one of the files underneath. This will update
all minified and gzipped files as required. Enable the {JQueryPlugin}{Debug} flag in configure ,
to use the uncompressed files right away to omit the make step during development of new javascript components.
Apache can be configured to automatically use the .gz files if present using mod_rewrite as follows:
in the filesystem, then there will be an internal redirect in the server while still enforcing the original mime-type.
The browser on the client side will unzip the css and js files automatically. This will drastically
reduce bandwidth and speed up interactive performance.
Installation InstructionsYou do not need to install anything in the browser to use this extension. The following instructions are for the administrator who installs the extension on the server. Open configure, and open the "Extensions" section. Use "Find More Extensions" to get a list of available extensions. Select "Install". If you have any problems, or if the extension isn't available inconfigure , then you can still install manually from the command-line. See http://foswiki.org/Support/ManuallyInstallingExtensions for more help.
For Foswiki versions before 1.1, this plugin requires the Foswiki:Extensions.ZonePlugin to be installed. The ZonePlugin is not required for Foswiki 1.1 or later. Plugin Info

BROOKS HAYS August 9, 1898 - October 11, 1981 The Ecumenical Institute of Wake Forest University was founded in 1968. Its first director was Brooks Hays. The creation of the Institute and the appointment of Mr. Hays were decisions made on this campus, but surely the heavens must have smiled at this wedding of noble purpose and noble man. What most of us did not know at the time--with the exception of President Scales--was that Mr, Hays was a man of exceptional Christian and political vision and that he knew--not merely believed--that politics and Christianity were highly compatible and need not circle one another like suspicious, cautious enemies. This unusual approach to the workaday world of passing laws or the arcane world of debating theological hypotheses gave many of us reason to pause. Mr. Hays was an old political warhorse, but in the words of one of his admirers "being around him was like coming upon a clear, deep pool of water and a few green trees in an otherwise dusty, barren and harsh landscape." More importantly, in the opinion of this Board, Mr. Hays showed us that landscapes need not be dusty, that ideas need not be barren and that love can be found instead of harshness, if one simply extends love. So it was that Mr. Hays touched the lives of students, faculty, administrators, and members of the Board of Trustees of Wake Forest University. We responded to him happily because he was a brave man who would not allow a tragic political defeat to mar his personality and make him a sad-faced and inept martyr. He counseled presidents of this nation as well as the impoverished residents of its ghettoes. He made young people believe that politics could become their happy and respectable parish. Dr. Claude U. Broach, another former director of the Institute, said it this way: "He believed firmly--passionately would be a better word--that the world of politics offered not only a legitimate but also an imperative challenge for concerned Christians in the total spectrum of vocational choice. And he took on that challenge with matchless grace, wit, and wisdom. He had all the equipment required for a consummate politician, and more, he gave dignity to a profession often consigned to disrepute. " One of the reasons we loved him was that he told genuinely funny and wise parables. He was a great servant of his native State of Arkansas and of the United States, a country he loved well and wisely. The Board of Trustees of Wake Forest University believes Mr. Hays made a special imprint on this institution. We salute his life and know that in death he continues to teach us. We ask that this tribute to the Honorable Brooks Hays be entered into the minutes of the Board and that copies be sent to members of his family.

- Marital status: Employers with more than 25 employees may not fire or refuse to hire someon because he or she is married to or plans to marry another employee, or enter in a civil union with another employee. (This protection doesn't apply if one employee would supervisor or audit the other, or one has access to confidential information.)
How many employees must a company in Colorado have to be subject to antidiscrimination laws?
Under federal law, companies with 15 or more employees are covered by Title VII, the primary law prohibiting employment discrimination, the Americans with Disabilities Act, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability, and the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act, which prohibits discrimination based on genetic information. Companies with 20 or more employees are subject to the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), the federal law that prohibits discrimination against employees 40 years or older. Companies with four or more employees must comply with the employment discrimination provisions of the Immigration Reform and Control Act, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of citizenship status. And all companies of any size must pay men and women equally for doing equal work, by virtue of the Equal Pay Act.
In Colorado, companies with one or more employees are subject to the state's antidiscrimination law (except, as noted above, for the prohibition on discriminating against married employees or those in a civil union).
What government agency regulates workplace discrimination in Colorado?
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is the federal agency that regulates workplace discrimination. You can contact the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission by calling 800-669-4000 or check out its website at www.eeoc.gov. The website will help you locate an EEOC field office in Colorado.
The Civil Rights Division enforces state antidiscrimination law in Colorado. You can contact the Civil Rights Division at 303-894-2997 or 800-262-4845 or go to its website.

The obligatory release of semen typically from the male body into some sort of containment device such as a napkin or a tissue to be later discarded. Although this is usually a night-time practice to finally get some sleep, running a batch can happen most anytime there is downtime throughout the day. This includes: not getting sex after begging for it anywhere between 5-35 minutes, having no direction in your life and running a batch just because the internet happens to be available, or going home empty handed after a night out clubbing.
Zeke (after a long night out): "Bro you wanna go hit Denny's for a Grand Slam breakfast since we struck out tonight?"
Me: "Naw man, I think I'm gunna go home, run a batch and call it a night."

Geometry effects in electroosmotic flow in micro- and nano-channels
Ramirez, J.C.1, Conlisk, A.T.21 Los Alamos National Laboratory, Materials Science and Technology Division
2 The Ohio State University
We present a model for electro-osmotic flow and apply it to examine the effect of complicated geometries on the flow behavior along micro and nano-channels connecting two reservoirs. We perform two and three dimensional simulations. The model consists of the Navier-Stokes equation for the fluid momentum and pressure, species conservation equations for the concentrations of multiple ionic species dissolved in the solution and an equation for the electric potential.
We observe that a sudden expansion or contraction in the channel cross-section area causes two effects: First, a "pinchoff" effect that causes a fraction of the fluid to return to its original reservoir without ever reaching the other reservoir and second, the formation of a flow separation region adjacent to the sudden expansion or contraction. This separation region is interesting because it is formed at the extremely low Reynolds number typical of electro-osmotic flows.

Describes a situation facing Philip Satre, chairman and CEO of Harrah's Entertainment, Inc. Satre was reading a May 2000 Wall Street Journal story that discussed the company's marketing success in targeting low rollers, the 100% growth in stock price and profits in the year to December 1999, and the revenue growth of 50%, which significantly outpaced the industry. The exciting articles aroused Satre's desire to know more about the activities of his then COO, Gary Loveman, and his team of "propeller heads" with respect to their database marketing efforts and the Total Reward Program. Satre was interested in two questions: He wanted to know how much these marketing efforts had contributed to Harrah's overall performance and whether these marketing results were a one-shot event or could be achieved year after year, especially as the competition introduced similar programs.
