I see no requirement that the numbers be square numbers just that i square three numbers
The problem stated that they are "squares." "Squares" in the integer sense *means* unambiguously
that the squares of integers are the only ones permitted, that is, 0, 1, 4, 9, 16, ...

Barring complex numbers and limiting ourselves to integers...
Spoiler for another possibility
User Prime, your solution doesn't count, because it amounts the *same* solution repeated, that is, 0^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 = 2, that is,
0 + 1 + 1 = 2.
Your 2nd and 3rd expressions don't give different sums of squares than your 1st expression.

ICANN recently updated the list of reserved second level domain names. Those are names that you won't be able to register in any of the 1500 or so new domains they're planning to add. There's rather a lot of them, currently 629.
The names are in three groups, the ICRC (the Red Cross), the IOC (the Olympic games) and everyone else. Several years ago the Red Cross and later the Olympics came to ICANN and insisted that they make a special list of forbidden names, separate from the various trademark registries. As I understand it, the argument was that these are special cases with names recognized by international treaties, and not by trademark law, so they need special rules to avoid confusion. The argument seems utterly bogus to me. In the US there have for a century been many registered trademarks for Red Cross (bandages, shoes, mattresses, canned tomato juice etc.) and Olympic (paint, welding torches, bread, doughnuts, etc.) and the confusion seems firmly under control. Nevertheless, ICANN agreed, probably because it was easier than arguing.
Then somehow earlier this year the Government Advisory Committee told ICANN to add a third category of what looks like every Intergovernmental Organization (IGO) established by treaty, anywhere. ICANN already has the .INT domain specifically for this kind of organization, but again, what the heck.
These rules apply only to the new TLDs, not to the existing ones. So while you cannot register, say, benelux-organization-for-intellectual-property.barefoot or international-conference-on-the-great-lakes-region-of-africa.cashbackbonus (or even the semi-reasonable international-conference-on-the-great-lakes-region-of-africa.africa,) you can register any of those names in .com or .org or .net or any of the other existing TLDs. I poked around and while most of the short abbreviations like unhcr and wipo are taken, the long names are mostly available. Get yours while you can.
You can't have bureauinternationaldespoidsetmesures.com. That one's mine.

The short ones are the interesting ones.
That ICANN has decided to bar the Presbyterian Church in America, the second largest Presbyterian association in the US, from getting PCA.church, pretty much confirms what PCA members think about international organizations.
one of the organizations on the list wants to register its reserved name? I don't see any way for them to claim it.
And if it turns out that there is a way to claim their name, how about a way to disclaim it? I expect the Permanent Court of Arbitration doesn't want pca.church.

Linda Cardellini and Kyle Chandler to Star in New Netflix Drama
Looks like we've got another Netflix marathon to train for. According to The Hollywood Reporter's latest casting announcement, Freaks and Geeks and Mad Men star Linda Cardellini is teaming up with Kyle Chandler, aka Coach Taylor from Friday Night Lights, on a new Netflix drama. Led by the creators of the FX hit drama Damages, the upcoming new streaming series is a family drama that sounds to us a lot like a dark version of Parenthood. Focusing on the lives of four adult siblings, Linda will portray the youngest sister, a people-pleasing attorney, while Kyle plays a middle child described as "the kind of responsible guy who would work in law enforcement." The cast also includes Aussie actor Ben Mendelsohn (The Place Beyond the Pines) as the eldest, prodigal son and foil to Kyle's rule-abiding character. With the return of this black sheep to the flock, the family's "secrets and scars" begin to resurface. With such a strong cast and a creative team that's already produced one riveting drama, we predict this is going to be another one of those times we're going to want to block out a weekend and subsist on takeout until we've binge-watched the entire season. Damn you, Netflix! Source: The Hollywood Reporter

General Motors, the largest U.S. automaker, is preparing to bid this week for Ally Financial's auto-lending arms in Europe and Latin America, said three people with knowledge of the matter told Bloomberg News.
GM isn't pursuing an offer for Ally's Canadian operations or its Mexican auto insurer, said the people, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the talks are private.
Detroit- based Ally put its non-U.S. operations up for sale in May to help repay a U.S. government bailout. Ally has asked companies to submit bids by Sept. 21 after receiving almost 30 indications of interest in July, the people said.
An acquisition of the units would more than double the assets of GM Financial, created in 2010 with the acquisition of AmeriCredit Corp.
Detroit-based GM owned Ally's predecessor, GMAC, until 2006, when the automaker sold 51 percent of it to Cerberus Capital Management LP.
Toronto-Dominion Bank and Royal Bank of Canada are among lenders that have shown interest in Ally's Canadian operations, one of the people said. TD bought the former lending arm of Chrysler in 2011 for $6.3 billion.
"We have disclosed our interest in acquiring some parts of Ally's international operations but we're not prepared to discuss the topic in any detail in the middle of the process," GM said in an e-mailed statement. Stephen Knight of TD and Katherine Gay at Royal Bank declined to comment.
"We are encouraged by the breadth and depth of interest in the international businesses," said Gina Proia, an Ally spokeswoman. She declined to comment further.
GM bought AmeriCredit to boost auto sales by providing customers with more access to credit. Last year, GM Financial bought Toronto-based leasing company FinanciaLinx Corp. to expand its Canada operations.
The carmaker's executives view Ally's $15.3 billion of assets in Canada as less attractive than the other regions partly because GM already has a finance business there, one of the people with knowledge of the matter said. Competition from local banks also contributed, two other people said.
While GM Financial is focused mainly on North America, Ally financed about 30 percent of GM customers internationally in the first quarter, Colin Langan, an analyst at UBS AG in New York, said in a note to investors this year. Ally's Latin American and European lending units had $16.4 billion of assets, the lender said in a May 15 presentation to investors.
GM's finance unit had $14.6 billion of assets as of June 30. Chief Executive Officer Dan Akerson said in a May interview that the automaker was "the natural buyer" for the non-U.S. operations.

Movie Making on a Linux Box? No Way!
Despite the existence of binaries, one-third of the downloads that include Broadcast 2000 from heroinewarrior.com are source code. There are a number of reasons for this: you can learn about optimization strategies by passing different compiler flags; you can also get greater independence by re-enacting as much of the software development process as possible.
Building from scratch is very difficult and time consuming. Most of the libraries required in the executable are statically built by the master Makefile to greatly simplify compiling. In recent years however, many new point releases have emerged, compounding the home-compilation outlook. You need the include files for the following point releases:
XFree86 4.0.1. Linux Kernel version 2.2.17.
This can be done by issuing
./configure<\n> make make installin the top directory. There are undoubtedly going to be problems with newer Linux derivatives that we have not seen yet—and you may need to do some hand coding. If it does not build a point release, mismatch is the likely cause.
Issue the command /usr/local/bcast/bcast2000.sh to start Broadcast 2000.
Once installed, Broadcast 2000 can perform many operations with a myriad of configurations for each operation. The operations include many alternatives for video capture and audio capture. The system is designed to scale from basic audio to high bandwidth video, but this subjects users to incredibly detailed customization.
Configuration options are described in the /usr/local/bcast/docs directory. The biggest help is going to be trial and error until configuration profiles are developed.
Let us look at the three stages to a Broadcast 2000 session: acquiring footage, editing footage and saving a show.
Commenly, e-mails sent to support complain of being unable to load movie files. Most users want to load compressed Internet trailers, but in 1998 the Linux world came to a hard reality. None of the new compression formats were going to run on Linux. Since then we passed three generations of video on the Windows platform, but not a single one was licensed for Linux use.
The only videos that you are likely to play back are MPEG-1, uncompressed Quicktime and DV. Quicktime is not a single compression format. It is really a wrapper for many different video formats. Some of these formats are used in professional studios and some of them are fully supported in Linux. There is also support for loading high-resolution photographs, panning and zooming.
Then of course you can impart footage through video capture interfaces. In a practical sense, there is no footage on the Internet that you want to use in a show, and compression is never used as an intermediate format. When you leave the pure playback domain, all the footage is uncompressed and captured from some esoteric device.
Broadcast 2000 supports Video4Linux, Video4Linux 2, Firewire, LML33 and screencapture interfaces, which are customizable from half duplex audio recording to full duplex video recording. These hardware applications vary in the degree of difficulty of installation. Video capture is usually implemented in the kernel by patches, separate source code distributions, compilation and hand coding.
After aquiring footage, the biggest problem that people face is editing the interface. Unlike most of the current trends in GUI design, Broadcast 2000 uses a cut and paste strategy. This mechanism allowed precise editing for many years but seems to have shifted out of vogue.
Selecting video is best accomplished by scrubbing: fast-forwarding, rewinding and inserting labels. Then you select the region between the labels by double-clicking on the time bar. Selecting audio can be done just by looking at the waveform and highlighting. The key to success with Broadcast 2000 is the use of labels. Old-timers may remember something called "Soundedit 16", which used the same label paradigm. Here we applied it to video.
Another e-mail that we often see in support is usually "can't isolate tracks for editing". Once again an audio paradigm is applied to video. On old-fashioned 24-track audio decks you had 24 "input/repro" switches. This allowed selected tracks to play back while allowing different tracks to be recorded on. In Broadcast 2000 the ability to isolate tracks for editing and playback is provided by play and record toggles.
On each track there is a play and record toggle that allows just the single track to be affected by cursor selections. Editing is thus purely freestyle with audio tracks being interchangeable with video tracks.
The best part of all is that, when editing, the changes never affect the source files. This makes it possible to relocate hours of footage in an instant, and undo commands are limited to a high 500.
i did not read the above.
I can't tell if this guy is ecstatic, or declarative. I didn't read beyond the title. I can say this however; I use linux 100% to produce all art/tv/web for an advertising agency. I've experienced only monetary, and creative gain from using opensource software. Gimp, Blender3d, Inkscape, I'm looking at you.

Darksiders $28
Brutal Legend $28 Army of Two: The 40th Day $18 Far Cry 2 $8 If I'd had more time to browse I would have grabbed a heap more. I'll try and get there again tomorrow but no doubt all the good stuff will be gone. Would love to grab Modnation and Lost Planet 2 but they didn't have any preowned at the one I went to |
23rd June 2010, 05:41 PM | #3 (permalink) | |||
Mate no fear on all the good stuff going. I spoke to the area manager here in Brisbane and they have heaps of boxes in bounds to all stores. Apparently they want to clear everything that is sitting in their warehouse ... and that is a %^&$&^$% load
Was told to make it in Friday and Saturday for the big bargains.
3rd July 2010, 07:42 PM | #5 (permalink) | |||
On Monday 28/6 I was told come Thurs 1/7 for the 'insane sale'. Rocked up and all the prices had gone up substantially (eg Batman AA from $18 --> $48 ). None too impressed tbh, but I'll poke my head in from time to time on they off chance the drop again at the end of the sale.
4th July 2010, 01:08 AM | #6 (permalink) | |||
I picked up a couple of good bargains for my PS3. A Gioteck bluetooth headset for $18 and a wireless keypad for $24 (down from $80).
They also have a nifty controller recharger stand that I was thinking of getting. Can hold and charge two Xbox and two PS3 controllers at the same time. Not bad at $18. Ok, enough. I sound like I work for them.

Ghost Sits
Muncaster Castle is reputedly one of the most haunted buildings anywhere in the UK. Scientists have been researching the "ghosts" of Muncaster Castle since 1992 and are still unable to explain some of the strange occurrences reported at Muncaster.
Dare you spend a night in the 'Tapestry Room' to decide for yourself?
The Muncaster 'Ghost Sit' is a unique opportunity for up to 6 people* to stay overnight in the Tapestry Room. To set the scene, your visit will begin late evening, with a private tour of the Castle. Your party will be immersed in the tales and legends of Muncaster - an introduction to our ghostly residents.
Tom Fool lived here once; some believe he still does. Tales are also told of The White Lady and of a woman dressed in black. After your tour, settle down for an all-night watch in our notorious Tapestry Room, with its Flemish hangings, rich Georgian furniture, and Elizabethan fireplace. To ensure you don't miss a moment, coffee will be provided.
The following morning, you will be greeted by a full English Breakfast in Creeping Kate's Kitchen. What better way to reflect on your evening and swap stories? We ask all guests to complete a log, sharing their experiences. We can't guarantee spectacular spectres, but do hope you enjoy high spirits during a unique night to remember.
Saturday/Bank Holiday Sunday night Ghost Sit - £560 per group
Friday/Sunday night - £499
Monday - Thursday- £460

What once was considered by the forefathers of Doddridge County as prominent place for your final rest had been almost lost to time. Few in the county even know the rich history buried on that hillside in what once was a straight line of sight to the County Courthouse.
I'm sure many people have heard tell of the Blockhouse Hill Cemetery, but how many have actually been there? Sadly, very few have made the short trip up the hill behind the Cline Stansberry Stadium.
Back in the early 1800's, it was quite the spot. Overlooking the Old Northwestern Turnpike, the Middle Island Creek and a beautiful view of the Courthouse Hill in town, this was a picturesque spot of land chosen for its view. If you look back in time and imagine the modern trappings of West Union and think back to when this area was basically farm, devoid of trees with lush green hillsides, it speaks of a simpler time.
We paid a visit to the cemetery on Monday as teens and young adults along side members of the Doddridge County Historical Society as they put in a full day of community service. The work was hard, the rewards, greater. We made it to the site just after 1pm as the crew was being treated to lunch. We were met by Jennifer Wilt of the Historical Society. Ms. Wilt gave us a quick tour of the huge area the crews were clearing. "When we got here, you would never even know that this half of the cemetery existed" she said "You couldn't even see some of the tombstones and large markers…it was a sad sight."
She continued to give us the history of some of the most prominent people buried in Blockhouse. It was as if she was reading a "who's-who" of West Virginia history. We highlighted a few of the people that shaped the great State of West Virginia, Doddridge County and the Town of West Union.
Here's a little known fact: Lewisport was on the Blockhouse side of Middle Island Creek and Union was on the other. It was decided to dissolve Lewisport and merge it into Union. One problem stood in the way, there was already a town named Union, being west of Union, West Union was adopted as the name of the newly merged town!
What is Blockhouse Hill Cemetery?
Recently, Earl Daugherty wrote on the West Union website: "Blockhouse Hill Historical Cemetery is a historical landmark. It stands as an impressive and everlasting symbol of our country's history, not just West Union's.
On Blockhouse Hill lived the early settlers; it was our first town (Lewisport); it had the first church; the first cemetery.
On that tract of land there are three cemeteries in one. In 1824, Joseph Davis (a brother of Nathan, who once owned 20,000 acres here) deeded the lower portion for a church and cemetery. Peggy Etheburt was the first person buried in the section. In 1853, Ephraim Bee deeded to Bishop Richard of Wheeling the section for the Catholic Cemetery, midway down the hill. Then in 1899, L.L. Davis (who is buried in the cemetery) laid the next section off into lots. Harry Ringer was the first person buried in this section.
This beautiful spot can have an enduring appeal for all future generations. It is a legacy of great value and meaning to our country. It will help preserve the bond between the past and the present. We will be a stronger community by having cared for this memorial honor to our ancestors."
The historic value of this cemetery goes beyond words. It is a rich history of our country literally etched in stone.
Lewis Maxwell
Lewis Maxwell was a member of Congress from 1827 to 1833. A wealthy man for his time, he was a surveyor who entered large tracts of land all over his region of the state. Childless, he left no heirs, so much of his fortune fell to his nephew, Franklin Maxwell. Specifically, his will "gave his widow her dower, and divided the residue of the estate equally between the sons of his nephew Franklin one-half, and the other one-half equally among the sons of his brothers and half-brothers; Franklin Maxwell, under the Will, received $2,000 for settling the estate, and Judge Edwin Maxwell and the Judge's brother Rufus Maxwell received his Library." 1,4
"MAXWELL, Lewis, (1790 - 1862) MAXWELL, Lewis, a Representative from Virginia; born in
Chester County, Pa., April 17, 1790; moved with his mother to Virginia about 1800; completed a
preparatory course; studied law; was admitted to the bar and commenced practice in Weston, Va. (now West Virginia); member of the State house of delegates 1821-1824; elected to the Twentieth Congress; reelected to the Twenty-first Congress and reelected as an Anti-Jacksonian to the Twenty-second Congress (March 4, 1827-March 3, 1833); chairman, Committee on Expenditures in the Department of War (Twenty-first Congress), Committee on Expenditures in the Department of the Navy (Twenty-second Congress); was not a candidate for renomination in 1832; resumed the practice of law and was also engaged as a surveyor and land patentee; died in West Union, Doddridge County, Va. (now West Virginia), February 13, 1862; interment in Odd Fellows Cemetery."
Lewis Maxwell was born either in Colrain Township of Lancaster County or in Chester County, Pennsylvania on April 17, 1790, and was the son of Thomas Maxwell and Jane Lewis. As a child, he moved with his mother to Lewis County, Virginia. He studied law, was admitted to the bar and became a member of the State House of Delegates 1821-1824. He was served in Congress from 1827 to 1833, after which he resumed the practice of law, was a surveyor and land speculator. He married Sophronia Wilson in 1844, and later, in 1859, Jane Pritchard, who survived him. He was one of the largest landholders in the region, a founder of Weston, (West) Virginia and the founder of Jane Lew, a town named after his mother. He died in West Union, Doddridge County, (West) Virginia on February 13, 1862 and was buried in His monument is located in the nearby Old Seventh Day Baptist section of what is now known as Blockhouse Hill Cemetery. The other two Blockhouse Hill Cemetery sections are the former IOOF
Cemetery and the Catholic section.
Childless, his fortune ultimately descended to his nephew Franklin Maxwell, son of his older brother Abner.
Joseph Cheuvront
Joseph Cheuvront, according to the 1850 census: "…received his primary education in his native county and when fifteen years of age moved with his parents to West Virginia, and settled in Harrison County, near Clarksburg, when that city was but a village of few houses. He early became familiar with carpenter tools and worked with his father for many years. Later he went to Clarksburg and followed carpentering and cabinet-making and continued there until the organization of Doddridge County, when he came to West Union. This was in 1845, and here he has continued to make his home since, a period of over half a century. At that time he had few tools to work with, but he soon opened a cabinet shop -- a friend assisting him in this undertaking -- and carried that on with carpentering for some time.
Later he engaged in the undertaking business in connection and has followed that for forty-five years, although now retired from the active duties of life. About 1861 he began merchandising and carried this on until 1888, when he closed this out, but continued in the furniture business a few more years. He has been engaged in various enterprises and has met with fair success in all.
For some time he was in the saw mill business, blacksmithing, hotel business and farming. He owns a large farm in this county, another one in Harrison County, and owns the Grant House in West Union. Although practically retired from active business life, he still superintends his business affairs and is one of the most enterprising and successful men in this part of the State.
During the Rebellion, his was the only store in this place and he sold about $200,000 worth of goods per year for two years then. ... Our subject is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, a non-affiliating member of the Masonic fraternity, and a Republican in politics. He served as Deputy Sheriff of the county one term, also held the office of Magistrate a number of years and was overseer of the poor one term. He was a delegate to the convention at Wheeling for the formation of West Virginia, and is a prominent and influential citizen."
Chapman Johnson Stuart
Chapman J. Stuart served as Doddridge County prosecutor from 1852 to 1861. An opponent of secession, he sat as a member of the First Wheeling Convention of 1861, was a member of the Constitutional Convention of 1862, and in 1863 was elected judge of the Circuit Court and was on the bench for ten years, until 1873. His public service to the state continued after leaving the bench, and in 1874-75 and again in 1878-79 he represented Doddridge County in the Legislature.
During the Civil War he did some valuable work as a lieutenant of the 14th West Virginia Infantry in recruiting Union soldiers, raising Company A of that regiment.
He has also been credited with naming the state of West Virginia. A June 1913 article which appeared in the Wheeling Intelligencer credits him for suggesting the name West Virginia as opposed to the other proposed names of "New Virginia" and "Allegheny."
West Union's most prominent residence in Historic Courthouse Square district of town is where Mr. Stuart called home, The Stuart Mansion. The large three story structure has undergone recent renovations to help preserve this architectural treasure.
A tale of great tragedy
One of the most heart-sickening recitals in the history of Western Virginia, is that of the burning of the Dawson family, on the night of the 25th of September, 1856. The facts as gleaned by the writer are as follows: At the time, Jackson Dawson, his wife, five children of their own and a little girl of the name of Luvena Mires, resided in a frame house of a story and a half in height, which was located in the western part of the town, on the spot on which the residence of John Dye now stands. It was dark, chilly night at the hour of 1 AM when the alarm was given. The fire had started from the kitchen in the rear of the house, and the building, being constructed of the most inflammable material, the flames spread with frightful rapidity. Every member of the family was soundly sleeping, and when the alarm was given the father and mother rushed in a semi conscious condition from the building, but no sooner out than the father, crazed to frenzy at the perilous condition of his children, rushed into the burning building and lost his life in an attempt to rescue the helpless ones. Oh, the terrible scene; who, when at this late day, can bear to think of it? Six little helpless girls enwrapped in hissing flames, from which come their cries for help, but soon the last murmur is hushed in death and the awful scene is past. When daylight came Joseph Cheuvront, the undertaker, repaired to the fatal spot, and from the ruins collected the charred remains of half a dozen human beings, placed all in ·a box, which was then deposited in the cemetery, where they now repose. If the traveler who visits the town of West Union will stroll into the cemetery there, he will discover an ivy-covered mound, at the head of which stands a broad marble slab, from which he may read the following inscription:
Sarah A., aged 7 years and 7 months.
Mary M.F., aged 6 years, 1 month, 15 days.
Charlotte S. aged 4 years, 6 months, and five days.
Luvena B., aged 2 years,. 7 months, and 28 days.
Elizabeth R., aged 2 months and 17 days.
Children of Jackson & Charlotte Jackson and
Luvena Mires, aged 11 years, 7 months and 23 days.
Perished by fire September 25th, 1856.
Mr. Daugherty writes "What a wealth of interesting information this old cemetery contains. Not all of the inscriptions on the tombstones can be read, but with care, they can be deciphered, I believe.
Many of the people buried here came to help in the building of the Old Northwestern Turnpike (completed 1838); or the building of the railroad (01850's); or to work in the glass factories (after 1900). Then they remained and built their homes here. From the inscriptions, you can see that the homelands of many were from Germany and Ireland.
A relatively small number of the grave-sites are being taken care of by relatives or by persons paid by relatives. I imagine these people would want to continue doing this and I hope that they can. But many people lying on this hill have no living relatives; no provision has been made to care for their burial sites."
The Doddridge County Historical Society has been appointed as the overseer for this historic gem by the Doddridge County Commission. With help from private individuals and the county commission, coupled with volunteer efforts, these historic figures can rest knowing that their grave-sites will be cared for well into the future.
During Tuesdays commission meeting, the Doddridge County Library Board of Director requested their second Executive Session to discuss a new library facility. It was announced after the session expired and regular session was called that Mr. Richard McMillan made the announcement that the county commission and the library board had negotiated a building rental that will be a lease to own contract in conjunction with Triple H Enterprises. Triple H is owned by Mr. Stanley Webb who's growing company needs to expand their office spaces. The proposal begins with a new building site located diagonally across from the Shop n' Save Express and the old Sunoco Station. Several dilapidated houses in the area had been purchased by Triple H to build a new office complex for their business. A connection was made with the DC Library and plans were underway to expand the project to a two story masonry structure that would house both Triple H and the new DC Library.
Speaking with Mr. Webb the morning after the meeting, he had indicated that the area was pretty well blighted and he wanted to help revitalize that area of West Union. "We are in several negotiations with adjacent land owners to buy out their property and possibly provide more office or retail space." he said. "We feel that when this phase of construction is completed, other businesses will want to move into that area."
Triple H employs almost forty people from the area…from skilled laborers to engineers and others professionals. Currently they have outgrown their Joy Cabin Run facility and want to move into town to have a more centralized operation. Their clientele include Antero Resources, EQT, Dominion and many other gas and oil related companies. The services they offer include Engineering, Surveying, Fencing, Oilfield Services and any related service to the industry.
According to their website "At Triple H, we strive for excellence! Our company name, Triple H stands for High standards, High quality, and High performance. Started in 2008, Triple H has performed numerous different contracting jobs including well pad engineering and surveying, county road upgrade projects, pipeline engineering and surveying, NACE certified painting, gravel hauling and spreading, fencing, and small excavating jobs for several different companies." "Our mission is to provide our employees and customers with the highest amount of professionalism and quality workmanship, while creating and maintaining a long-lasting, positive relationship."
Details of the proposal
The details of this building proposal and lease have yet to be ironed out with the county commissions attorney and Triple H, but they proposal is close to what follows. Triple H will build and maintain the facility for the term of the lease agreement. The lease agreement will last (projected) twenty-five years. The county commission will pay Triple H $9,500 a month for twenty-five years. At the end of the twenty five year lease, the building will be handed over to the county commission upon completion of the terms set. Mr. Robinson requested at the meeting the option of buying out early. The total cost for the county will not exceed $2.85 million. The total square footage of the entire building is 120,000 square feet.
The lower portion of the two story structure will house Triple H with several offices, a reception area, work area, and engineering and survey office, a print room, equipment storage for surveying, and a break room for employees.
The space assigned for the library includes, a conference area with seating and tables for 120, A kitchen and reception area, a story time room with supply closets and restrooms While the upper floor, still accessible from street level will house the main library, a teen area, children's area, a genealogy room, kitchen, offices as well as reading nooks and computer spaces throughout the floor. The game of the lot will allow for Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility to both floors.
While the cost may seem somewhat daunting, the overall price per square foot of the building will be in line with similar structures recently built. With the 1899 Silas P. Smith Opera House being used for the current library, it will now be turned over to the county commission for what ever purpose it sees fit. The valuation of the Opera House was estimated at $200,000 and has been maintained well for the past few decades. Updating the technology in the building has become challenging to say the least as the structure is on the National Register of Historic Places and requires special care when remodeling or updating.
Several previous efforts were made by the Library Board to obtain a new or newer facility, but all had fallen through. Mr. McMillan noted that they hoped this would come to fruition unlike the other failed attempts.
This is the first phase of the building process, approval of plans and contract negotiation. As with any project, things will change, but the basics remain the same.

A decision by a federal bankruptcy court in Kentucky this week gives regulators a strong hand in enforcing environmental laws against bankrupt coal companies. As part of Thursday's decision, the court awarded the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection more than $2.7 million to address reclamation of an abandoned coal mine in Fayette County.
Thursday morning fire broke out in the area of the electrical box on Stanley and Kathy Warners house on Doe Run in West Union. Stanley told us that they lost everything in the blaze.
"I even lost my dog...The fireman said he didn't suffer at all, but it's hard losing a pet like that." Stanley asked us to say thank you to a gentleman from Texas who is working in the area.
"He bought us a generator and he even put gas in it so we can have power. We asked what we owed him and he said nothing... People can be so nice." The family lives below in a trailer due to Kathy's health and not being able to climb the stairs.

CBNNews.com - TEHRAN, Iran - An Iranian-born Israeli was charged Sunday for passing sensitive information to Iran. Due to a court-imposed gag order, he remains unnamed.
The Tel Aviv District Court indicted the 55-year-old Israeli for cooperating with Iranian intelligence and disclosing sensitive information about the country's security system employees. He is also believed to have visited regularly with the Iranian consulate in Istanbul, Turkey.
"The suspect agreed to cooperate with Iranian intelligence officials. He gave them names of people he knew and claimed they were working for Israeli security forces," the police said.
The Shin Bet (General Security Agency) and the Israel Police Serious and International Crimes Unit arrested the suspect at Tel Aviv's Ben-Gurion International Airport on May 8.
Last year, the Shin Bet warned that Iran intended to recruit Israelis as spies when they visited Iran. Since 2006, the Shin Bet has investigated 10 Israelis, both Jewish and Arab, suspected of spying for Iran.
The Shin Bet identified the Iranian consulate in Istanbul as a key location for obtaining crucial information. Israelis who visit the consulate to obtain various Iranian travel documents are often taken to side rooms and interrogated for several hours to reveal information about their military background, their family, and jobs.
The Shin Bet believes Israel is the number one priority for Iranian intelligence gathering.
"Without question, we are the primary target of Iran's spy efforts. They're scared of an Israeli operation," Ephraim Kam, deputy director of the Institute for National Security Studies at Tel Aviv University said.
Kam said the Iranians also use Israeli Arabs and Palestinians to spy, and they train members of Hezbollah and Hamas to eavesdrop.
"Human intelligence is valuable because it reveals some of the weaknesses of the enemy," MK Yisrael Hasson (Yisrael Beitenu), former deputy director of the Shin Bet said recently.
"Israel is dealing with these threats effectively all the time," he said.

ISLAMABAD - PML-N senior leader Iqbal Zafar Jhagra was sent to London on Sunday for further treatment of the injuries he had suffered in a traffic accident a few months ago.
Family sources said that Jhagra was sent to London in an air ambulance on the directive of the prime minister.
It may be recalled that a few months ago, Jhagra was on his way back after attending a wedding ceremony in Multan, when his car rammed into a stationary trolley on the road near Doli Shaheed, leaving him and three others on board the car injured.

Accomodation is not as luxurious as it looks in the images. We where dissapointed. We had a lot of problems with the Hot water / Shower. The water did not work for 2 days. We also had baliense men surrounding a pool villa for 2 days trying to fix it which meant we where not able to swim in our pool.
The villa was also not cleaned on the last 3 days, There was no toilet paper. Very expensive for what it was. Most disappointing.
Location was good, convenient, walking distance to a lot of restaurants and shopping. Pool was well maintained. Only grouse was that there was little hot water, which was fixed after the second day. Thanks Indie!
Good little spot in a great location. Exactly what we were after - no fuss, good service if needed and all for a good price
Nice villa, as seen on photos. Clean, comfortable, simple. Very convenient location, just few minutes walk to main Oberoi street with all restaurants and shoppings, 20mins to beach and the beach clubs . The only issue was wifi during day time 1st day was merely usable, night and next day it's fine. However, we only stayed 1 night, so not major issue. Security and team is staying beside us, safe. Thanks Pak Syvester who is very informative and helpful. Thanks Indie! it was a good stay.
If you want convenience smack in the middle of Oberoi, this villa is suitable. Only 5 min to Ultimo, Rumours, Trattoria and all the boutiques. We went as a a family of 4 (2 adults with 2 kids). The size was good. Place was clean and exactly as shown in pictures. Only thing was the hot water comes and goes, so you have to adjust the water level lower and the water is hot again. Don't expect 5 star breakfast. It's really basic. Place has a security guard 24 hours and Pak Sylvester and his team who looks after the place are really nice and helpful. Walking to the villa felt safe too. We also arranged for airport transfer but the driver didn't turn up on time. We waited for 35 minutes and decided to take a cab to the villa. So if you do arrange for it, best to confirm day before your arrival and get the address of the villa (just in case), which we did. Overall, a very convenient, clean and basic place. Highly recommended if you want walking distance to most places, including Ku De Ta beach (15 - 20 min walk). Thanks Indie!!

Sedalia's Weekend Events: Weekend of May 30
Here's a look at some of the events going on in our area this weekend!
Here's a look at some of the events going on in our area this weekend!
This is otter-ly amazing. These otters at Smithsonian's National Zoo show off their skills on a keyboard.
Brad Paisley's new 'River Bank' music video is a party. And what could be better than a party on the river with a country superstar? A party on the river with Paisley and Twiggy the Water-Skiing Squirrel, of course.
One day when cats take over the world, we will all know the precise moment we truly glimpsed just how smart they are.
You know that superstition where people hold their breath while they're driving through a tunnel? It almost got a bunch of people KILLED this weekend.
We don't want to waste too many words on this. Because really, all you need to do is watch the above clip.
Cats love to squeeze into tight spaces: barely open drawers, the gap between the wall and the couch, and, of course, cat-size jars.
It's play-outside season for all of us now, finally, and with new reports that more deer ticks survived the winter, we need to arm ourselves with the facts about Lyme disease.
It wasn't that long ago that Florida Georgia Line's Brian Kelley and his wife, Brittney Marie Cole, added a third furry member to their family. Now, less than one month later they've added a second canine member to the Kelley family.
Forget about imagining what life would be like if dogs could talk. Let's think a little more 21st century and see what life would be like if dogs could text.

Abstract | This paper is based on the very initial stage of a four year research project focused on teachers' judgements and interpretations of assessment data in the context of standardsdriven reform in Queensland. This major research project is investigating the local level practice of social moderation as a means of developing shared understandings of standards and consistency of judgement amongst teachers in face-to-face and ICT contexts for the purposes of demonstrating system level accountability. The authors draw on a social theory of learning (Wenger, 1998) and assessment research to illustrate the importance of acknowledging that teachers are the primary change agents who, through judgement practices, are best placed to identify important steps for students to improve in their learning. The initial stage of this research reported in this paper suggests that the practice at the local level of social moderation has the potential to fulfil an important role as a process for aiding teachers in ascribing value to student work through the use of standards that help them understand curriculum year level requirements and student achievement within year levels and in so doing attend to system level accountability. |

People | 8 |
Bedrooms | 4 |
Bathrooms | 3 |
Property type | chalet |
Minimum Stay | 3 - 7 nights |
Chalet des Roues is a recently modernised and refurbished chalet with spacious accommodation uniquely set on 5 demi-levels. It is ideally situated just 5 minutes walk from the village centre.
The entrance hall leads to a large fully equipped kitchen with a table seating 4 people.There is also a large double bedroom on this level.
A small flight of stairs leads up to the living area featuring a large picture window opening on to the balcony which gives the room a light and airy feel. There is a dining area with a table seating 8 people and a relaxation area with sofa and chairs.
Upstairs from here are 2 twin rooms ideal for younger people with a shared shower and WC.
Downstairs from the hall is another double bedroom with en-suite shower and WC.
Another flight of stairs leads down to the large cellar area which features a big TV room with sofa and flat screen TV with SKY Freeview. You will also find a large bathroom with WC, washing machine, tumble dryer and a large heated boot room accessed from inside and out. The chalet is fully equipped with Wifi.
Skiing: The Portes du Soleil incorporates the resorts of Chatel, Avoriaz, Morzine, Les Gets, Saint Jean d'Aulpes, Montriond, Abondance, Le Chapelle d'Abondance in France and Morgins, Torgon, Champoussin, Les Crosets, and Champery in Switzerland. It has roughly 200 lifts serving 650 kilometres of piste, providing runs for all abilities with a height range of 950 - 2400 metres. The Portes du Soleil lift pass covers all of these resorts.
The resort of Chatel also provides its own ski area, covered by a local ski pass, with 45 lifts serving 49 individual pistes covering 83 kilometres from 1100 - 2200 metres. This year a new lift and piste will link the Super Chatel area with Linga making skiing from the village centre even more attractive.
There are plenty of ski hire shops and a free bus service taking you to whichever area you want to ski. There is a bus stop right outside the chalet.
Chatel is an 'all year round resort' and the Summer is equally as enjoyable and breathtaking as the winter with open meadows filled with alpine flowers and a host of activities to undertake and sites to see.
Chatel village: Chatel town square is 5 minutes walk from Chalet des Roues. This is a real advantage, especially during high season. You can either walk up the road, or for an even shorter walk take the path from the back of the chalet which emerges higher up the road leading to the village.
The village itself has a wide variety of small shops, many selling local produce and specialities. There is a street market on Wednesday mornings. The two supermarkets are ideal for those holidaying on a self-catered basis and have large selections of basic and the more exotic foods. There is also a large 'Intermarche' store a short drive or bus ride away.
The Haute-Savoie is well known for its cuisine and the twenty or so restaurants and bars in the local area cater for all tastes and budgets.
Chatel has 'Famille Plus' status, a national tourism distinction awarded to French towns and villages for the hospitality and services they provide for families with children. There is a brand new swimming and hydro-therapy complex in the village ideal for families.

We have owned a property in Chatel since 1988 as it is a really wonderful resort both in winter and in summer. At first we had an apartment but in 2002 sold that and bought our chalet. The property needed modernising but had great potential which we realised in 2008 when we totally rebuilt the chalet and included a large extension both underneath and on the back!
The property is within a short walk of the village centre which is a huge benefit, particularly in high season when parking in the village is at a premium.
We are extremely proud of our chalet, and would live there full time if only we could!
We had an excellent time,
The chalet was ideally located for access to the slopes and the town,
Bus stop at the front door was much appreciated.
Chalet was fully equipped for our needs,
Many thanks
The chalet was excellent for our party of 7 people,
On a morning the bus journey to the town made life easy however it could easliy be walked.
There were excellent facilities in the chalet for catering and plenty of space for our party of 7.
I would recommend this property for access to the slopes of Super Chatel, Linga & Pre la Joux
Just returned from a 3 week skiing holiday in Chatel, based in Chalet Des Roues and had a brilliant time! The chalet is excellent, clean, tidy and well equipped as well as being convenient for both the village and skiing - it was a real 'home from home', cosy, comfortable and very relaxing. The chalet layout is unusual, interesting and also functional, the bootroom entrance being the only one we used due to the large volumes of snow this season! With a 3 week stay the washing machine and tumble dryer are a boon! The heating works well, never ever felt cold and no shortage of hot water for our group after a full days skiing! The short walk up into the village sharpens the appetite (as if it were needed!) and there is a good selection of eating places, but we also made full use of the well equipped kitchen to prepare meals on occasion and had some great nights in.
Highly recommended and I shall be looking to return!
As a family group of 7 adults we found Chalet des Roues a brilliant place for a weeks skiing.
The Chalet is well positioned for access to the super Chatel gondola and although the free bus stopped right outside we preferred the 10min walk to warm up before skiing.
We wondered if the size of the Chalet would be sufficient for 7 adults - it's hard to see from the photos how all the rooms could fit - but way the property has been designed over several demi-levels there was more space than we expected and with 3 bathrooms it worked really well for us . The heated boot room and the games room were particularly useful our group.
We were very pleased that the local property manager John called to welcome us shortly after our arrival and offered some useful tips on where and when to ski.
The car parking space immediately opposite the Chalet was much appreciated as I can imagine car parking around busy times would otherwise be difficult.
We had a fantastic weeks skiing and the Chalet was a warm and welcoming home during a cold snowy Chrismas week.
We woud have no hesitation in recommending it.
The first step in the "Chalet des Roues" was welcomed by a wonderful smell of pine wood and a cosy homely feel. The lounge has a spectacular panoramic view of the valley and comfortable furniture, what more could you want?! We were two for the stay, the village shops (5 minute walk) and a fully equipped kitchen made every meal easy to prepare , not to mention all the nearby restaurants.
We had a great time there! Thank you!
Everything about "Chalet des Roues" is what you might expect from its Alpine Village location. Upon first entering the property, which incidentally was easy to find, I was struck by the wonderful panoramic view through the large lounge window. Comfortably nestled into one side of the green valley one can relax with ease, in sight of these views. We numbered eight for our short stay during August and were comfortably accommodated in a cosy yet roomy environment. The owner had done everything possible to ensure that our stay was a memorable one. I would not hesitate to go back for a longer "séjour" and would love to see the place in winter. As for the town, Chatel has a wonderful, traditional, post card village feeling about it, with charming artisanal shops and, of course, an excellent selection of cuisine. The town council do what they can to be truly involved in their geographical location and with the help of numerous volunteers had animated the terminus for the annual uphill cycling event from further down the valley. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, well done!!
Chatel is a charming, traditional alpine village. It is situated on the border between France and Switzerland at the junction of two valleys below the Pas de Morgins. Despite being well known as an international ski resort in the Portes du Soleil ski area, the village has retained much of its original charm and development has been sympathetically and tastefully carried out in traditional alpine style, mainly in wood and stone. It is a farming region and is well known for its local cheeses. It has a lot to offer the tourist and the local community go out of their way to make visitors feel most welcome. Chatel is an all year round resort. It has much to offer visitors throughout the year and so as well as skiing in the winter there is mountain biking, walking and hiking, horse riding, paragliding, tennis, golf, rafting, site seeing or just relaxing in the beautiful and peaceful mountain scenery. Chatel has a brand new swimming and hydro-therapy complex which opened in summer 2014.

How does Chuck Billy follow up Testament's huge chart debut for Dark Roots of Earth? The answer, apparently, is to team up with Steve 'Zetro' Souza of former Exodus fame again and unleash a second Dublin Death Patrol album on an unsuspecting populace. Titled Death Sentence, it's a gritty new effort from the thrash supergroup, which once counted Machine Head guitarist Phil Demmel among its ranks and features a minimum seven total members live for an unhinged, ganglike vibe.
Metal Insider has the exclusive premiere of Death Sentence's opening track, the galloping scorcher "Mind Sewn Shut." You can stream it below, and if you're a fan of either of these world-renowned thrashmasters and their cohorts, you already know what to expect. It's tough, pit-rocking goodness that practically reeks of sweat and denim, just the way fans of classic and modern thrash alike expect from these guys. What are you waiting for? Strap on your bullet belt and turn it up!
Death Sentence comes out tomorrow, August 14 via Mascot Records.

Seems like just another track from Formation except Zetro's vocals, which now seems like a superfluous Dani Filth.

Hello people, We are using web-based accounting software. Internally, everybody is accessing the software by going to: http://192.168.1.101:8080/POS. It will show the bellow screen. Now, I want someone outside our office can access the software by going to our server. Facts: - Server is online on the internet 24/7 - Our WRT54GS ver 1.1 is based on DD-WRT v23 SP1. - I am testing this using a remote computer using DIAL UP connection trying to connect to our web-based acounting software. I always get a PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED everytime I type (http://184.108.40.206/POS) or even (http://126.96.36.199:8080/POS). However, I can ping our server IP address 188.8.131.52 just OK from the remote computer using dial up. The question is now..how to setup the PORT forwarding and stuff on WRT54GS so someone outside our office can access the web-based accounting software? Thank You, Michael
you'd want to forward port 8080 tcp to 192.168.1.101 for that to work, however i'd recomend that you setup a VPN connection rather than using port forwarding if this is accounting software, it will add another layer of security to your internal applications, and all traffic to and from the accounting software is encrypted.
Thank You for the answer. I should try that to office tommorow. Can you please forward me to a guide where I can setup a VPN network? Thank you...
I believe DD-WRT has a PPTP VPN server built in to it... You'd need to look at the docs or someone that runs DD-WRT can comment on that... Then you just setup a new network connection in windows to the internet IP of your router as a VPN connection (it gives you the option) then enter the username and password you set on the router... at that point it will be like your computer is directly connected to the LAN and they can access it the exact same way they do at work with the 192 address.
Why do I keep getting THE PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED? Bellow is the setup of my DD-WRT I went dial-up and test the connection by going to: http://18.104.22.168:8080/POS. (where 222 is the IP address at that moment). However, I get a page cannot be displayed. I can ping 184.108.40.206 using dial up just well. When I try to open, it seems that IE is trying to open the file, but failed to do it. It finally came out with "the page cannot be displayed". Can someone please help me? FYI, I have a Symantec Antivirus Corporate 10 running on the server. I have disabled it. Might that be the problem?
it could be the problem only if it's got the firewall component in it, otherwise it shouldnt' be. If that doesn't have a firewall, check for other software firewalls installed on that computer... that may be blocking it...
I found it! It seems that I have to setup my ADSL Modem wiht port forwarding as well. So, I did setup the ADSL modem to forward port 80 to 8080 in ip 10.0.0.13 (the IP of the WRT54GS which it acquires from ADSL MODEM). Then, on WRT54GS, I setup port forwarding from 8080 to 8080....walah...it works flawlessly... Thank you for the help.
one last question...how secure is this going to be? I mean...besides people trying to key in the right username and password by guessing around...what other flaws might there be for this kind of setup?
The security is going to be up to the application. The port forward won't introduce anything additional except that a *lot* more strangers will be hitting the server. One thing I would seriously do is to enable hostname based virtual web on your internal webserver. In other words, forget the IP based access, set it up so that the web app can only be accessed by a full URL like: http://accounting.yourdomain.com:8080/ or something like that. If they hit you with the IP or any other URL they get a default page or a redirect to somewhere else. This way the constant hits and scans from random crackers/robots never see the login screen unless they know the correct URL. This is easy in Apache, I don't know IIS but I'm sure it can do it too.
Thank you. I think I know what you mean. Instead of typing http://account.lautanmas.com, people will need to get to http://account.lautanmas.com:8080. Am I getting it correctly? FYI, I am using No-IP.org to follow the IP changes.
Not exactly. The port number 8080 is up to you. Using a noip hostname is a good idea too. But what I mean is that the webserver itself will only show the login page if the correct hostname is used (http://accounting.no-ip.org or your choice of URL). If a user comes in with the correct IP but a different hostname or just the IP they don't see the login screen. That is a webserver config. In Apache land that is called NamedVirtualHost. This prevents crackers and the curious from seeing your site unless they know the proper hostname. You essentially setup two sites, the main application and a default page that can't access anything.

Floods appeal tops £40k
August 19, 2010

World Jewish Relief's emergency appeal for victims of the devastating floods in Pakistan has passed £40,000.
The money has been used to purchase family kits helping almost 6,400 people and will assist in the reconstruction of homes destroyed.
Other organisations are rallying around the WJR appeal. "As a community that has a humanitarian aspect supporting causes outside of our own interests, it's a no-brainer that we will be supporting the WJR's appeal," said Board of Deputies chief executive Jon Benjamin.
Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg this week condemned the international response to the crisis as "lamentable". He said that around a quarter of the aid to date had come from Britain.

Characters have their own demons and torrid pasts and they are forced to interrupt it with the ensuing plot of this new mercenary that dashes all hopes of warrior Li-Mu-Bai earning peace after a life of bloodshed, and unfulfilled happiness. Like the Man with No Name, Li-Mu-Bai a man that's seen it all, murdered many, and hopes that the relinquishing of his sword "the Green Destiny" will allow him to seek peace of mind. But all is destroyed once the sword's taint requires he step back into battle and hopefully save a young soul that may end up down the wrong path. Director Lee intends his opus as a vivid fantasy that toggles between action and romance and a beat is never missed. "Crouching Tiger" brings with it a fantastic and interesting balance of story and mythology painting a slew of immense characters at the center of this journey.
The most compelling story involves Li-Mu-Bai's mission to discover the masked burglar that continues to storm the gates of his royal palace and evade the guards. All the while he's yet to face the fact that he's desperately in love with his cohort friend Yu Shu Lien, who he vowed to protect after his best friend died. Meanwhile, there are also a father and daughter team seeking to defeat the vicious warrior the Jade Fox, who most definitely has a hand in the mystery warrior's consistent burglaries and raids on the castle. Once Li observes the fighting style of the intruder, he discovers that the individual has great potential to ward off their evil deeds in favor of a better life.
The dynamic between Bai and his young female protege Jen Yu is fantastic, particularly since he has her pegged upon coming across her for the first time. He's intrigued by her skill and guts, and yet knows she has a lot to learn as a warrior. The best sequences involve the pair, as Bai antagonizes Jen Yu to the point of anger inducing sloppiness in the midst of battle. He's anxious to teach her the ways of the noble warrior. But not if the Jade Fox has anything to do about it. Pei-Pei Cheng is fantastic as the villain Jade Fox, who has a long history with many of the heroes in the epic romance and even in her old age is still a force to be reckoned with. She's the sinister being seeking to make Jen Yu her apprentice and rule the land, but Jen Yu has other plans.
Filled with stunning cinematography, every single scene is like a work of art, and Director Ang Lee orchestrates some of the best sword fights ever depicted on film, with the Green Destiny becoming a character onto itself. From the battle in the dojo, to the fight along the forest, Peter Pau's choreography is flawless. "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" meanders on occasion, sure, but that's no real caveat. Every story from Jen Yu's struggle with her love for a bandit, down to the unrequited passion between Li-Mu-Bai and Yu Shu is wonderful and complimented by many of the best Asian actors in the world whom ever lived. Including Chow Yun Fat who is absolutely mesmerizing, as well as Michelle Yeoh who is a stand out. You'll hear a lot of positive praise for this film, and I'm glad to join the ranks of fans who continue to be breath taken with this incredible epic.

July 10, 2008 'Epic bugged-out Jewsploitation film'http://www.jewishjournal.com/blog/item/epic_bugged_out_jewsploitation_film_20080710/ |
That headline, in case you were wondering, does not refer to "The Hebrew Hammer," which I found funny for about 30 minutes, hilarious for five ("Shabbat Shalom mother f—-er!) and unbearable for the rest.
