2012 Schrader Release
2012 Schrader ReleaseWhat are the various package options? Looks like I was allocated a 6 pack consisting of a Schrader, T6, CCS, LPV and two RBS. Are there 3 packs, Old Sparky, etc?
Tom Twitter: @NWTomLee
2012 Schrader ReleaseThey are only offering 6 packs from based what I was offered this morning. I was also able to secure an Old Sparky. No options that I see for smaller allocations.
2012 Schrader ReleaseSome got two six packs and two old sparkys.
I got one six pack consisting Schrader Cabernet Sauvignon, CCS, GIII, LPV, RBS and T6 and a old sparky. I wish listed one Old Sparky and two 'Wish 4 Six' Pack consisting T6, RBS (3), LPV and CCS. Kevin
2012 Schrader Releaseno Sparky for me (on list since 06 vintage so I expected one).

2012 Schrader Release2 six-packs, 2 magnums for me. Very happy to see allocations up after several years of decreases.
2012 Schrader Release
Tom...What was your six pack called? I was allocated the "Cellar" pack consisting of one of each wine (only one RBS, but also one GIII). Based on other posts (here and elsewhere), I believe there was a "Dandy" pack consisting of six wines, but two of certain ones (I don't remember which) and no Schrader or GIII. Adam
2012 Schrader ReleaseI got the "Dandy" pack - CCS, 2 LPV, 2 RBS, T6
2012 Schrader ReleaseTook 2 Cellar Pack and 2 Sparky and wish listed 2 Wish Pack.
This has to be by far the largest offering from Schrader. To bad there no tn's available.
2012 Schrader Releasemy "super pack" is
1 x 2012 Schrader Cabernet Sauvignon 1 x 2012 Schrader CCS Cabernet Sauvignon 1 x 2012 Schrader LPV Cabernet Sauvignon 2 x 2012 Schrader RBS Cabernet Sauvignon 1 x 2012 Schrader T6 Cabernet Sauvignon Tous les chemins mènent à la Bourgogne!

2012 Schrader ReleaseIf anyone has extra old sparky, I am interested. This is for baby girl birthyear.
My allocation is only for the 6 pack (Dandy). TIA. A M u l y o n o

They are still in barrel, so TN's are tough. I think Parker put barrel scores out?, but I am not a subscriber over there anymore. That said, I've tried the barrels and they are very good. ITB
2012 Schrader ReleaseDoes anyone know if this offer is coming out in waves? I have been offered and purchased the last three years, but none yet.

2012 Schrader ReleaseOrdered all that I was offered. Once again I would like to thank the Schraders for holding the line on pricing. Shipping cost not so much

+1. I was totally expecting a price increase especially with '12 being such a highly lauded vintage. Joe
2012 Schrader ReleaseGot the offer and ordered 1 Dandy Pack. Never had a Schrader before and took the plunge out of curiosity, vintage and WB board enthusiasm. Hopefully they turn out great (fingers-crossed).

Have you been on the list for several years and just not ordered before? You didn't get a "first wave" offer on the first-time you made the list did you? By the way, what is in a Dandy Pack? $.E$te$
2012 Schrader Release
I have been on the list before and passed on a previous offer. Also I do not know if I was on the first wave but my allocation was starting 12/3. Add for the dandy, someone above posted the contents of the pack already. Joel Galang

2012 Schrader ReleaseThey have offered me 2 bottles of the RBS since the 2009 vintage. This is the first year that I was offered the "Dandy" pack - 1 CCS, 2 LPV, 2 RBS, 1 T6. I also wish listed for the 6 pack.
Luis DeCubas
2012 Schrader ReleaseMe too, but it was one ToKalon plus one RBS in 2009 (cleanup offer by phone), two RBS in 2010 and one RBS plus one LPV in 2011. Was hoping to move up in the pecking order this year - oh well...
2012 Schrader ReleaseLooks like I FINALLY made it off the waiting list and on to the buying list. Anyone have any ideas as to what I can expect for my first allocation? I won't know until Jan 21 when the allocation is open to me. As it's my first go round, not sure what to expect.
2012 Schrader Release
Probably singles I would surmise. Cheers!
2012 Schrader Release
It used to be a 2 pk or 3 pk but there was more wine in '12 so you should have money on hand for the 6 pk just in case. Tous les chemins mènent à la Bourgogne!

2012 Schrader ReleaseNew year = Brand new wine budget. Hopefully it doesn't put too big a dent in what I had allocated to spend in 2014. But I guess we will see!
2012 Schrader Release
Received the same email today. Looking forward to seeing what I'm offered.
2012 Schrader ReleaseI've received a 2 or 3 bottle pack the past three years, but didn't receive a notice today. Perhaps it was just to those that are getting added to the list? I am hoping for more than just a 2 or 3 pack due to the larger vintage, but wouldn't be surprised if it's still just 3.
2012 Schrader Release
i was offered and bought the 2-pack last year (1st offering for me) and have not received an e-mail yet.
2012 Schrader ReleaseI too have bought 2 packs the last 2 releases. I did contact the winery- and when the emails come out, its first come first serve.

2012 Schrader ReleaseI received the email, as well - it was a welcome to the mailing list. The offer window doesn't open until the 21st.
2012 Schrader ReleaseStrange, I've purchased a 3 pack in 09, and a 2 pack in 10 and 11, and I bought some schwag for the Schrader charity release and I only just got the offer for the Jan 21st yesterday. Not sure if I'm on the lowest rung of the second wave or something? Seems like some guys got offered from the first wave on their first offering?
2014 WOTY: 2001 Harlan
2012 Schrader ReleaseBrandon, I don't think so. I got the email yesterday and I've been offered two-packs the past two years. Actually was offered a three pack three years ago but it sold out before I logged on.
Newbies didn't get the prior offer. It looks like they had one year on me - 3 yrs of buying. Now, curious if we get offered a six lack or Old Sparky, or something smaller. Bruce

GibbsCAM v9 and later NLO installation instructions
ABOUT GibbsCAM v9 NETWORK LICENSE INSTALLATION PROCESSDocument Version 1.1 Starting with version 9.0 GibbsCAM Network License Installation uses the same installation media as the Hardware Key Lock version. The Installation process has also been simplified. The creation and installation of the license file can now be done via the internet or manually using electronic or physical mail when the customer's environment does not allow internet access. Step 1 Setting up the server.
b) If you are running the v8 FlexLM license server on this same system you will need to stop that service and make a small change to the configuration.
c) Run Start-->All Programs-->GibbsCAM NLO Server-->GibbsCAM Registration Utility ***Vista users - you may need to right-click the application and select ';Run as Administrator'; in order for this to run properly.***
Step 2Installing the client software on each node. a) Install the GibbsCAM software on each client machine. b) Be sure the RLM server is running.
c) Deploy your license file on each client machine.
Other NLO Points of Interest o The 8.x (and older) FLEXlm server and GibbsCAM v9.0 RLM server do not run simultaneously but since the installation of the RLM server does not affect the FLEXlm installation you may choose to use either solution at any time. o Documentation for RLM can be found at http://www.reprisesoftware.com/RLM_Enduser.html o FAQ for RLM can be found at http://www.reprisesoftware.com/enduser_faq.htm o The latest RLM End-User Download Bundle can be found at http://www.reprisesoftware.com/enduser_kits/enduser_download_dir.htm STEP BY STEP NLO INSTALLATION PROCESS 1. The first step is setting up the server. a) Run 'NLO Server Registration Setup.msi' to install the Registration Tool and support files. c) Run RegistrationTool.exe: ***Vista,Windows 7 and Server 2008 users - you may need to right-click the application and select ';Run as Administrator'; in order for this to run properly.*** Select Network License Server as the Registration Type. Enter your Product Code and registration information, click 'Finish' to activate over the internet. If your server is not connected to the internet you can save the file (license.glc) and e-mail it to firstname.lastname@example.com. ***IMPORTANT TIP - MAKE NOTE OF THE HOST NAME BELOW. IT IS USED TO ASCERTAIN THE STATUS OF THE SERVER AS DETAILED IN STEP 2B BELOW*** A license file, 'license--.lic', will be created in your deployment directory. Select Yes in response to, 'Would you like to install RLM license server applications in ?'. If your Windows Firewall is turned on you will be asked to if you would like to open two ports. Select Yes in response to, 'RLM server application copied. The RLM server uses ports 2764 and 2765. Do you want these ports opened in the windows firewall?' Select Yes in response to, 'Would you like to start the RLM server as a Windows Service', unless you prefer to start the RLM server manually from a command prompt. 2. The second step is installing the client software on each node. a) Install the GibbsCAM software on each client machine using the same product code that was used for installing the server. b) Be sure the RLM server is running.
c) Deploy your license file on each client machine.
Run the Registration Tool using the Product Code from the server this client will be using. You will not be prompted for contact information on NLO client machines. Select 'Activate Product' to complete your license deployment. Your license data will be retrieved from the Gibbs Activation Service and placed in the appropriate Application Data folder. Repeat the second step, installing GibbsCAM product and deploying license file, for each client machine. |

PostgreSQL has the option to turn off fsync and synchronous commits (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/runtime-config-wal.html). Does SQL Server has this option somewhere?

No, Sql server doesn't let you turn off synchronous writes to the log file. If you were able to do so, then you would lose ACID compliance. If this is a "make it go as fast as possible" scenario, then a better approach is to analyze wait statistics to identify what the bottleneck actually is. Risking data corruption is never a good idea. |

Asus laptop sets itself back to factory settings

Hi all. Hope that you can help me yet again!
My Asus X52F running Windows 7, set itself back to factory settings last time I restarted it. It seemed to do end of windows updates when it was shutting down. Fortuantly, I was able to restore it to an earlier date.
However, I am now terrified of shutting the laptop down and then starting it up again. I have my photos, documents and music stored in clouds but it would be of course, a real nuisance to have to re-register everything again.
I would very much appreciate any suggestions as to why this could be happening, if at all possible and how I can stop it from happening again. I know it is a bit ask! Also, any recommendations of any backup software would be useful too I guess, as I am thinking, it would be nice not just to use clouds.
Many thanks in advance!

Shame about it being out of stock. I'm lucky - within 15 miles I have about 5 Argos stores, so one of them usually has what I want. I'll check them out.
Re: restoring your entire laptop. There are basically two ways to do this. One is that Asus should have supplied you with either disks to enable you to do a complete 'factory reset' (remember - that's where we started off...? LOL). Once you've done this, you can then restore all your own files. It's a cumbersome way of doing it, but it will work. Alternatively, your laptop may have a restore partition on it (my daughter's Eee netbook has one, and it works like a dream). You'd need to find the instructions how to activate this. Again, though, you'd still need to restore your own files.
The more elegant way of doing it is to use something like Acronis. I don't know Acronis very well, but I believe that what it does is to take an image of your entire hard drive. That way, if things go pear-shaped, you can in effect just reload your entire laptop - user documents and all - in one single operation, restoring it to how it was when you last backed up.
I'm thinking, you know: we must stop meeting like this... ;-)

Hi again Ian.
Thanks for all your help!
I can't get this drive and software from any of my local Argos stores. Did you manage to buy one?
I'm thinking now of getting a CBA Digital 80Gb Portable 2.5 Inch External Hard Drive including One Touch Software from Amazon, just because I want to get this done now. Can I trouble you again to see if you think that this will be OK for what I need?
Much appreciated!

Posted November 17, 2011 at 2:48PM
No, I didn't - every local store was out of them. I've registered to be told when they come back into stock.
The CBA is a 60GB drive, right, not an 80GB drive? It's not a name I'm familiar with, but the few reviews on Amazon are positive, which is worth something. I think the One Touch software is proprietary to CBA - I'm not familiar with it. It (CBA) also appears to be exclusive to Amazon, unless you buy it direct from CBA.
One cautionary note. From reading around, it looks as if these drives are factory-formatted to FAT32. You may want to format it to NTFS if you get one. (I sense I may just have opened a giant size can of worms... :-) )
60GB isn't huge, but may well be enough for what you want (if you've already backed up to a pen drive, it'll be more than sufficient). It'll certainly last you for a while, I'd have thought.
It's quite cool that it's USB powered rather than mains, meaning that it's going to be easier to move it between your laptop and your desktop.
At the price, I'd say "go for it".

When you have the drive attached, right click on it in My Computer and click on 'Properties'. That'll tell you whether it's FAT32 or NTFS.

Hi Ian. I hope that you are able still to help me.
My backup device has just arrived and you are right, it is set to FAT32. Should I be thinking of changing it to NTFS and if so,how do I go about this?
It does come with it's own software disc and I had the impression that I just plug it in and then I'm good to go.
I've probably got this all wrong!

Hi yet again (apologies)
I've now managed to change my external drive from FAT32 to NTFS and I also understand why, I think. I've got as far as starting to do my backup but Windows is telling me that there is not enough space to backup the selected drive. Have I made a massive mistake in only getting a 60gb external hard drive? Or is there some files that I can delete to get round this problem?
Sorry, I know that I am being a right pain but I really do appreciate any support given!

Not sure but windows 7 uses 20 odd Gb.I know not a lot about external drives so not sure if you have to partition it or not.

If you go into my computer and look at the external drive it should show you how much space is on there and how much is left.
My computer with hardly anything on it uses up 30 Gb so you would thing yours would have been big enough.

Hello bloggers, today I'm going to talk about Ache Brasil. Ache Brasil is a dance, acrobatics and marshal arts group that came to my school to perform. They are really cool. They used really cool instruments called berimbau, and wore traditional Brasilian clothing in their last song. They were very amazing performers. They could do back flips, walk on their hands, and lots of other cool tricks. Plus, they were all from Brasil. I know, that if you were there, you would have been shocked with what they could do, and would have had a lot of fun. www.achebrasil.com/

On Monday, we had a performance in our school, it was called Ache Brazil. The performance included different kinds of music, dances, clothes, and even an activity. What I liked the most about the performance was the music and the clothes. I liked the music because there were many instruments I never saw, and many instruments I recognized but even on those, the Ache Brazil group played differently. The music sounded great, and it seemed like it doesn't have an ending. I liked the clothes because they were so free, the dancers could do all the moves without their clothes making it a hard time, or at least it seemed like it. I also liked the clothes because they had bright colours that nobody usually wears. All the performance was good, but those are my favourite parts.

In February 8, 2011, we had a guest in our assembly called The Ache Basil. They came from Brazil and they travelled some parts of the world performing martial arts,dancing, and instruments, what kind of instruments they had? Well, they had was a Reco Reco (this interments is made of bamboo or wood covered with transversal ridges). And the Agogo (this instrument is consist of two iron bells that resonate when tapped with an iron stick. The common musical term is a cowbell. IT is generally used in candomble ceremonies, maracatu, procession, samba schools, and so forth. How about the martial arts, what kind of martial arts technique? Well they used like an axe kick in some parts (you raise your back leg and make a half circle and hit the ground like n axe), and they use a lot of balancing technique (similar to gymnastics) and last the dancing, one classmate of mine was chosen to come at the performance and do something silly so he did and he became the prime-minister and someone became the princess,prince, king, queen, and a prim-minister, I was laughing and the class and also the school.I had so much watching the performance. (like my classmate being a prim-mister)

On Monday, February 7, our school had the privilege of watching a compoeira (Dancing with a bit of mixed martial arts) dance performed by a wonderful group called Ache Brazil. In the group, there were 5 people, all of which come from Brazil. Ache means positive energy. During the performance, they danced to traditional Brazilian music instruments. There was one instrument called the Berimbau, a bow-stringed instrument with the base being a dried, fruit from where the sound projects. I found it interesting how you can make an instrument that sounds so good, with dried wood and fruit. That's what the African-Brazilians had to do so long ago. Another thing that was cool was that they did back flips and turned it almost into hip hop. I enjoyed every last bit of this performance, and I think I speak for everyone at our school when I say that. If you would like to learn more about Ache Brazil, and their academy, where you can learn compoeira dance, visit www.AcheBrazil.com. Thank you for reading this article.

On Febuary 7 a group called Ache Brazil came to my school. They played music by using drums, maracas, tambourines and all sorts of things. Sometimes while some of the group members were playing the insterments the other group members were fliping and standing on their heads without hans for support! They were walking on their hands like they were feet!
When they introduced the insterments a guy was spinning a tambourine on his finger. When he threw it in the air really high he caught it on his finger and the tambourinne was still spinning!
My favourite costume was when this person put on a HUGE streamer wig. It was like a crazy hair-do!
It was really funny when the group called up some students and made the students copy them. It was halirous when the group made the students go crazy! I really enjoyed Ache Brazil!

Ache Brazil is an awesome group of performers that came to my school and preformed and my made my day. They dance, sing and what's really cool is that they do martial arts at the same time. The technique they used and the songs and the dances all came from Brazil where the original people danced to it and had fun doing it .I really enjoyed their performance and I liked the fact, that they kept their traditions that their ancestors followed, and I'm happy to see that they kept it ALIVE.

Ache Brasil. It's a dance group consisting of many brazilians. They performed at our school a short while back,and I was impressed by their dancing style, and their unique music. They taught us a bit about an African king called Ganga Zumba, who was an escaped slave in Brazil. They also have a website called www.achebrasil.com, which tells more about the performance group. This is all I have to say, AND ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW! Bye.

Lucas Benitez of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers, left, and Jon Esformes, operating partner for Pacific Tomato Growers, shake hands after announcing an agreement to improve conditions for farmworkers. / Andrew West/news-press.com
There are at least 30,000 migrant farmworkers in Florida�s $400 million tomato industry, from which 95 percent of the nation�s tomatoes come between October and June.
Farmworkers helped develop the Coalition of Immokalee Workers� Fair Food agreement, which requires a strict code of conduct for growers and a penny-per-pound raise.
Under the agreement, harvesters will earn 82 cents for each 32-pound bucket they pick, up from 50 cents per bucket.
The raise means their annual earnings could rise from about $10,000 to between $16,000 and $17,000.
Nine multinational corporations have signed the Fair Food agreement, including McDonald�s, Burger King, Subway, Whole Foods, Aramark and Sodexo.
1:10 P.M. — After years of impasse, one of the nation's largest tomato growers has made peace with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers.
In an emotional Immokalee farm field news conference Wednesday, Pacific Tomato Growers pledged to improve its working conditions and pay harvesters a penny more per pound, which could raise annual wages from about $10,000 to as much as $17,000.
The agreement, in effect today, is the first forged directly between the 4,000-member grass-roots group and a grower.
With about 2,500 workers at peak season and more than 14,000 acres in the U.S. and Mexico, Pacific is one of the top five growers in the nation.
Some of improvements are simple: shade in the fields, for example. Others include health and safety programs, worker-to-worker education and a way to resolve complaints.
The accord ends a standoff begun in the 1990s when growers refused to negotiate with hunger-striking workers. After that failure, the coalition changed tactics: If growers wouldn't come to the table, they'd go directly to the growers' customers. One by one, the coalition forged agreements with all the world's major fast-food companies, institutional food services and others, including McDonald's, Burger King, Whole Foods and Sodexo.
Meanwhile the Florida Tomato Growers Exchange, the state's major industry group, decried their efforts. In 2008, spokesman Reggie Brown called the coalition's Fair Food campaign "un-American" - a possibly illegal scheme that would set a dangerous precedent by allowing outsiders to be involved in growers' business, he argued.
Pacific's history with the group had been troubled as well: In 2008, members of Immokalee's Navarrete family went to federal prison for enslaving 12 workers, whom they brought to work in Pacific's fields, as well as Six L's.
For Jon Esformes, operating partner of Pacific, the announcement was a chance to acknowledge the industry's sins and promise to help transform the future. Quoting the late philosopher and rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, Esformes said, "Few are guilty, but all are responsible. ... The transgressions that took place are totally unacceptable today and they were totally unacceptable yesterday."
Farmworkers deserve the same respect as white-collar workers, Esformes said. He encouraged other growers to follow Pacific's lead.
For coalition member Silva Perez, the morning was moving.
"I've worked here - picked and planted here," she said. "So to be here for this event today is beautiful."
The deal is just a first step but one that can lead "a model for generations of farmworkers and farmers to come," said the coalition's Lucas Benitez.
Author and coalition ally Eric Schlosser, who's testified at Senate hearings on the tomato industry, agreed. Not only should the agreement be replicated throughout Florida, it should be a model for grower/worker partnerships in the 21st century.
Industry reaction wasn't known. Calls to other Florida growers, including Six L's and West Coast Tomatoes as well as Publix weren't returned.
For his part, FTGE spokesman Brown wouldn't speculate about growers' reaction or whether the agreement would be precedent-setting, saying only companies can make their own decisions.
FGCU instructor Tim Durham, who grew up on a New York vegetable farm and lectures on agriculture, believes the announcement heralds a coming industrywide shift.
"This is definitely going to reverberate," Durham said. "They've set the bar and now their competitors will have to follow suit or they'll have a scarlet letter."
The agreement drew praise from former President Jimmy Carter, who tried to help workers during the 1998 hunger strike. "(It) clearly demonstrates that significant improvements can be made that benefit all parties if there is open discussion between employers and workers," he said in a statement.

Just for Fun - The Ten Decorating Trends You Wish Would Go Away
I think that's a whole different situation!
Quoting Vertical15:I do have an Eiffle Tower statue on my shelf. It was my grandmothers and its all I have of her. So I don't know how cliched that is?
Quoting TigerofMu:
Clichéd Design
"Attempts at Parisian design by putting an Eiffel Tower statue on a shelf and a black-and-white harlequin rug on the floor." —Lou L
Not a big fan of stainless steel, but I don't like the texture, drives me nuts...you will see this answer again on the chalkboard :). I think we're going to go with butcher block when we get to the countertops.
Quoting Vertical15:I like stainless steel though I don't have it and I guess I would like granite but I'm not sure if I would recognize it in any home right away. I've noticed when I watch house hunters people do seem obsessed with it. I say it all depends on the space.
Quoting TigerofMu:
Cookie-Cutter Kitchens
"I'm waiting patiently for the end of stainless-steel appliances and granite counter tops. What's next?"—Deb O.
Chalk dust makes me sick, and the texture of the chalkboard and the chalk creeps me out. I could handle a dry erase board! But not a whole houseful.
Quoting Vertical15:I like the chalkboard look but I wonder about the amount of chalk dust? And I wouldn't want a whole wall of it or anything but maybe one area or so.
Quoting TigerofMu:
Chalkboard Overload
"Turning every vertical surface in your house into a chalkboard." —Jennifer K.
I agree with the word decorations (family, eat, love, etc.) and the chalkboard thing. I'm on Pinterest a lot, so I get tired of the DIY overkill sometimes. Other than that, I don't think all of the things on the list were bad. I don't think taxidermy is necessarily a trend, and while open layouts in every house aren't good, I do think they look nice. Granite counter tops I do wonder about. They look nice, but I think they will end up dated, maybe?
I meant to clarify this, because unless you've been in my living room this may not make much sense. The wood/coal stove that we use to heat our house is in the living room and makes it too warm for a television.
Quoting TigerofMu:We can't even have a TV in our living room. It gets too hot and the TV blinks off and on.
Quoting batjmom:
Too high to look up to I think
Quoting TigerofMu:TVs on the Mantel
"Televisions hung above the fireplace." —Kelly J.
Yes. I hate those kitchens that are a whole separate room, or where the cupboards cover the opening. I like an open kitchen/dining/living room or other area plan. I do like my bedrooms and bathrooms on their own though! ;)
Quoting jlbelknap35:
I love open houses. I hate having people over and going into the kitchen or living room or something and feel segregated. I wanna be able to cook and stay in the grove of the party. We have a house like that now and I LOVE it.

12 Points of American Fascism
(Taken from a list by Dr. Laurence Britt's list, a political scientist. The American form of Fascism is slightly different from the forms Dr. Britt studied. Dr. Britt studied the fascist regimes of: Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia), and Pinochet (Chile).
In studying the fascism movements in previous governments and countries, Dr. Laurence noted:
1. Powerful and continuing expressions of nationalism
From the prominent displays of flags and bunting to the ubiquitous lapel pins, the fervor to show patriotic nationalism, both on the part of the regime itself and of citizens caught up in its frenzy, was always obvious. Catchy slogans, pride in the military, and demands for unity were common themes in expressing this nationalism. It was usually coupled with a suspicion of things foreign that often bordered on xenophobia.
2. Disdain for the importance of human rights
The regimes themselves viewed human rights as of little value and a hindrance to realizing the objectives of the ruling elite. Through clever use of propaganda, the population was brought to accept these human rights abuses by marginalizing, even demonizing, those being targeted. When abuse was egregious, the tactic was to use secrecy, denial, and disinformation.
3. Identification of enemies/scapegoats as a unifying cause
The most significant common thread among these regimes was the use of scapegoating as a means to divert the people's attention from other problems, to shift blame for failures, and to channel frustration in controlled directions. (Presently it's the Islamic Terrorist threat.) The methods of choice—relentless propaganda and disinformation—were usually effective. Often the regimes would incite "spontaneous" acts against the target scapegoats, usually communists, socialists, liberals, Arabs, ethnic and racial minorities, traditional national enemies, members of other religions, secularists, and "terrorists." However, in the modern form of Fascism, it could be some of these very groups who are actually those who are promoting fascism. Active opponents of these regimes were inevitably labeled as terrorists and dealt with accordingly. Today, in America, a true patriot and freedom lover might actually be labeled "the terrorist."
4. The supremacy of the military/avid militarism
Ruling elites always identified closely with the military and the industrial infrastructure that supported it. A disproportionate share of national resources was allocated to the military, even when domestic needs were acute. The military was seen as an expression of nationalism, and was used whenever possible to assert national goals, intimidate other nations, and increase the power and prestige of the ruling elite. (Today, the United States spends more on "defense" than all other countries combined.)
5. A controlled mass media
Under some of the regimes, the mass media were under strict direct control and could be relied upon never to stray from the party line. Other regimes exercised more subtle power to ensure media orthodoxy. Methods included the control of licensing and access to resources, economic pressure, appeals to patriotism, and implied threats. The leaders of the mass media were often politically compatible with the power elite. The result was usually success in keeping the general public unaware of the regimes' excesses. (Today, all major media happened to be in the control of Jews, that includes ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox (Newscorp), CNN, N.T. Times, Washington Post and hundreds of other news outlets such as radio stations, magazines, cable TV, internet companies.)
6. Obsession with national security
Inevitably, a national security apparatus was under direct control of the ruling elite. It was usually an instrument of oppression, operating in secret and beyond any constraints. Its actions were justified under the rubric of protecting "national security," and questioning its activities was portrayed as unpatriotic or even treasonous.
7. Religion and ruling elite tied together
Unlike communist regimes, the fascist and protofascist regimes were never proclaimed as godless by their opponents. In fact, most of the regimes attached themselves to the predominant religion of the country and chose to portray themselves as militant defenders of that religion. The fact that the ruling elite's behavior was incompatible with the precepts of the religion was generally swept under the rug. Propaganda kept up the illusion that the ruling elites were defenders of the faith and opponents of the "godless." A perception was manufactured that opposing the power elite was tantamount to an attack on religion. In the United States, an attack on "Judeo-Christian" values might be the sacred faith they pretend to defend.
8. Power of corporations protected
Although the personal life of ordinary citizens was under strict control, the ability of large corporations to operate in relative freedom was not compromised. The ruling elite saw the corporate structure as a way to not only ensure military production (in developed states), but also as an additional means of social control. Members of the economic elite were often pampered by the political elite to ensure a continued mutuality of interests, especially in the repression of "have-not" citizens.
9. Power of labor suppressed or eliminated
Since organized labor was seen as the one power center that could challenge the political hegemony of the ruling elite and its corporate allies, it was inevitably crushed or made powerless. The poor formed an underclass, viewed with suspicion or outright contempt. Under some regimes, being poor was considered akin to a vice. (As jobs are being shipped overseas, the lower and middle class wages have dropped significantly in recent years.)
10. Obsession with crime and punishment
Most of these regimes maintained Draconian systems of criminal justice with huge prison populations. The police were often glorified and had almost unchecked power, leading to rampant abuse. "Normal" and political crime were often merged into trumped-up criminal charges and sometimes used against political opponents of the regime. Fear, and hatred, of criminals or "traitors" was often promoted among the population as an excuse for more police power. (The United States has more prisoners per capita than ever the most severe dictatorships in the world.)
11. Rampant cronyism and corruption
Those in business circles and close to the power elite often used their position to enrich themselves. This corruption worked both ways; the power elite would receive financial gifts and property from the economic elite, who in turn would gain the benefit of government favoritism. Members of the power elite were in a position to obtain vast wealth from other sources as well: for example, by stealing national resources. With the national security apparatus under control and the media muzzled, this corruption was largely unconstrained and not well understood by the general population. Furthermore, the United States has more lawyers per capita than all countries. These lawyers are used to write laws protecting the elite while enslaving the masses.
12. Fraudulent elections
Elections in the form of plebiscites or public opinion polls were usually bogus. When actual elections with candidates were held, they would usually be perverted by the power elite to get the desired result. Common methods included maintaining control of the election machinery, intimidating and disenfranchising opposition voters, destroying or disallowing legal votes, and, as a last resort, turning to a judiciary beholden to the power elite. In the USA, both Democratic and Republican parties are owned by the same money. Americans are given a choice between two candidates already in the hands of the elite.
NOTE: The above list is a modified version of Dr. Laurence Britt's list, a political scientist. The American form of Fascism is slightly different from the forms Dr. Britt studied. Dr. Britt studied the fascist regimes of: Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia), and Pinochet (Chile).
Does any of this sound familiar? As America sinks deeper and deeper into corporate greed will this country continue to be a democracy by the people and for the people or will it be ruled by the few? Will the trinity of money, power and greed over come one of the greatest countries in the world? Only we, the people, can keep it free. SPEAK OUT AND LET YOUR THOUGHTS BE KNOWN...ONLY BY SILENCE WILL WE BE DEFEATED! And remember, your vote between the two major parties is worthless.
"What no one seemed to notice. . . was the ever widening gap. . .between the government and the people. . . And it became always wider. . . the whole process of its coming into being, was above all diverting, it provided an excuse not to think for people who did not want to think anyway . . . (it) gave us some dreadful, fundamental things to think about . . .and kept us so busy with continuous changes and 'crises' and so fascinated . . . by the machinations of the 'national enemies,' without and within, that we had no time to think about these dreadful things that were growing, little by little, all around us. . .
Each step was so small, so inconsequential, so well explained or, on occasion, 'regretted,' that unless one understood what the whole thing was in principle, what all these 'little measures'. . . must some day lead to, one no more saw it developing from day to day than a farmer in his field sees the corn growing. . . .Each act. . . is worse than the last, but only a little worse. You wait for the next and the next. You wait for one great shocking occasion, thinking that others, when such a shock comes, will join you in resisting somehow.
You don't want to act, or even talk, alone. . . you don't want to 'go out of your way to make trouble.' . . .But the one great shocking occasion, when tens or hundreds or thousands will join with you, never comes. That's the difficulty. The forms are all there, all untouched, all reassuring, the houses, the shops, the jobs, the mealtimes, the visits, the concerts, the cinema, the holidays. But the spirit, which you never noticed because you made the lifelong mistake of identifying it with the forms, is changed. Now you live in a world of hate and fear, and the people who hate and fear do not even know it themselves, when everyone is transformed, no one is transformed. . . .You have accepted things you would not have accepted five years ago, a year ago, things your father. . . could never have imagined.":
From Milton Mayer, They Thought They Were Free, The Germans, 1938-45 (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1955)

"Great Story.... Lousy Reader!"
This could truly be an excellent part 2 to a great adventure. But the narrator is the worst I have ever encountered in my 8 years with Audible. In part 2 (of part 2) he just stops trying to define characters with any definition so that's impossible to tell who's talking, and when he changes chapters there is not even a small break to tell let you know he has and then transitions using the same voice. Impossible to follow without spending half you time backing up and saying... did I miss something?
If she were reading a book she didn't write
Not REALLY
Diane Keaton is a wonderful reader and narrator, not sure what this book was about, being beautiful, not being beautiful, insecurities. Trust me I don't want to hear my best friends endless insecurities much less from someone, who's a talented lovely lady, made absolutely no sense whatsoever.
"Awesomely creepy, funny and sad"
yes, Story was captivating and creepy, like watching a train wreck!
Cant say it would give story away
I thought Joe Hill did a great job, well done.
"Where Did You Find This Narrator?"
I didn't read the print version
Pappy Jack. I asociated with the written character. Not the narrator's terrible job with the dialog.
The next person that walks by your front door could possibly do a better job. He is the poorest reader I have ever heard on an audible book and I've been a member for 10 years. He sounds like he's reading to a 1st grade class.
I'm trying to get through the book (because of the compelling nature of a great story) despite the narrator.
I see there's another version by a different narrator... odd... or did Audible decide to give others an option.
"so sucks"
This was such a waste of $ but at one point I had to decide what my time was worth. Couldn't get thru it soooo sucks. Would not post unless I give it at least one star really no stars.
"Stephen King is smoking something!"
This is the second book recommended by Stephen King that couldn't "stink up the joint" more if it tried. When you find yourself yelling back at your radio "Come On! Come On! Come On! that is not a good thing. It is painfully slooooooooooooow and as the King of Switzerland said to Mozart "Too Many Notes" in this case far too many words, The one redeeming value is that it's a great sleep inducer... which doesn't work too well when your driving.... here I go ...fumigating my I Phone again
"Wish there was a "no star" selection"
I have been an Audible customer for going on 8 years and I have never written a review before this. Perhaps it was because I just spent months listening to Steven King's Dark Tower series, which makes about anything pale in comparison, but this is the worst novel in my massive library collection. Disappointing, boring, uninteresting and insipid are the first descriptions that come to mind. With a great reader and a compelling scenario this book turns out to be about a primer on adultery, with participants that no one could care for. Good Lord! Is that the best the author could do. I've got to fumigate my iPod.

Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the California Academy of Sciences NightLife. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
We loved our time here! Only regret was not getting the VIP passes but still got to see just about all of what we went to see.
We had so much fun. On a arrival we found DJ playing a rather but fun mix of eclectic music. We loved the Penguins, the free planetarium show and the aquarium. We also had dinner there in the café which tasty and great value. Throughout the evening there seemed to be lots of fun activities going on as we heard announcements about both salsa and belly dancing classes about to begin, we didn't join in as we didn't have time. We left about 9pm as it got very busy at this time.
Top tip: All persons must carry photo id on this trip to prove they are over 21 as they will be asked for it prior to entry.
Don't miss the planetarium. It's a jaw-dropping experience.
Really fun! Plan what you want to see in advance and go for the most popular things first e.g Rainforest and Earthquake sim. Music wasn't to my taste at all but other than that a great evening!
This is the best way to see the museum.
Laura All Over
If you're in San Francisco on a Thursday evening, don't miss Nightlife! Not only are there activities and drinks, it's also a totally different and unique experience to be in the museum after dark. We went during the holiday season and got to make reindeer antlers (there were also several other crafts), tried a bunch of Ghirardelli chocolate, saw real reindeer, watched the jellyfish float around their aquariums, and looked through a telescope on the roof. Whether you live in SF and want to try something new or you're just visiting, I'd highly recommend Nightlife!
I love Nightlife at the Academy of Sciences! The nighttime experience is great fun since there are djs, food and drinks, and no children. The night I went, they were hosting a Christmas themed event, so I got to make reindeer antlers, take photos in a photo booth and even meet some real reindeer! The aquarium part is also really fun because there are a lot of really cool creatures to see. And up on the living roof, they had a telescope set up to see Jupiter!
My husband and I spent one day of our honeymoon exploring San Francisco before heading to Puerto Vallarta. We had a great time and the NightLife at academy of sciences was the perfect final stop of a perfect day.
Mind blowing!a must do.
First of all being VIP was cool with our own private reception of free cocktails and finger sandwiches. Plenty of both . Behind the scenes tour of the gem vault and the the taxidermy lab. Cool. Then to be first into the Planetarium and the other lines was flawless. Only way to do it. The other perk was parking was so easy on the street, all other visitors were leaving when we were arriving.
If you are on Thursday in San Francisco just go there and enjoy!!
Amazing tour,so much was happening there we ran out of time. Only negative thing was the planetarium, it was about the earthquakes and nothing else. If we had know we would have skipped it. Great cocktails too
the evening tour is less crowded i guess ( no kids)
Good place to go for a Thursday night with a difference planetarium was amazing as was the academy of science
It was a pretty amazing experience. I haven't stopped talking about it and have recommended my friends check it out for themselves! It was fun, informational and very entertaining.

Generic IPOL
There are currently no generic versions of IPOL available on the market. As with other "biologic" medications, this vaccine is not allowed to be made in generic form. The laws for manufacturing generic biologics are changing, however, and it is likely that a generic IPOL could become available in the near future.
Is a Generic Version of IPOL Available?
IPOL® (inactivated polio vaccine) is a vaccine given routinely to children to provide protection against polio. It can also be used in certain adults at a high risk for contracting the disease.
IPOL is made by Sanofi Pasteur, Inc., one of the major vaccine manufacturers. Technically, IPOL is considered a "biologic" medication and is, therefore, under different rules and laws than most other medications. At this point, generic biologics (including generic IPOL) are not allowed to be made. However, the laws are changing, and it is likely that generic biologics will be permitted in the near future.
Understanding Generic Vaccines
There are no generic vaccines because vaccines are biologics. Biologics are products that are made using live cells or organisms. The cells or organisms are used to produce certain complex proteins or molecules that are used as medications, and the medications are known as "biologics" or "biopharmaceuticals."
When the patents for regular drugs expire, generic companies can apply to make generic versions. These companies need to submit a little information proving that their product is the same as the brand-name drug, but they do not have to repeat all of the human studies to show the drug to be safe and effective.
Human studies are expensive and time-consuming, and generic medications are less expensive because they do not need all the human studies.
Currently, biologics are governed by a different set of laws. Under these laws, there is no way for a generic biologic to be approved, unless the generic manufacturer completes all of the human studies necessary to approve a brand new drug. Because such studies are extremely expensive, it is likely that a generic biologic would not be any less expensive than the brand-name product.
Essentially, if a generic biologic were to be approved, it would not really be a generic, but a new and separate drug that would not be equivalent to the brand-name product. However, as mentioned, recent legislation has been aimed at changing these laws. It is predicted that new laws and regulations will allow generic biologics in the near future.

OBDII Code List » P0391
P0391P0391 - Camshaft Position Sensor 'B' Circuit Range/Performance Bank 2Possible causes
- Faulty Camshaft Position Sensor
- Camshaft Position Sensor harness is open or shorted - Camshaft Position Sensor circuit poor electrical connection - Faulty starter motor - Starting system circuit - Dead (Weak) battery Tech notes
Sometimes and in some models, low battery voltage or a weak starter can can trigger a Camshaft Position Sensor code.
When is the code detected? The camshaft position sensor signal sent to the Engine Control Module (ECM) during the first few seconds of engine cranking is out of range.
Symptoms - Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
- Lack/Loss of Power - Engine Stall P0391 Description
The Camshaft Position Sensor is an electronic device used in an engine to record the rate at which the camshaft is spinning. This information is used by the Engine Control Module (ECM) to control ignition and fuel injection. The camshaft position sensor senses the retraction of camshaft (intake) to identify a particular cylinder. The camshaft position sensor senses the piston position. The sensor system consists of a rotating part, typically a disc, as well as a static part, the actual sensor.
When the engine is running, the high and low parts of the teeth cause the gap with the sensor to change. The changing gap causes the magnetic field near the sensor to change. The change in the magnetic field cause the voltage from the sensor to change.

Retired teacher supports Jan Angel
This Peninsula area is a lovely, peaceful place to live. We are also fortunate to be represented in Olympia by an exceptional State Sen. Jan Angel. I have always been impressed by the dedication which Sen. Angel has to her job in Olympia.
As a retired teacher, and a past president of the Tacoma Education Association, I have had many occasions to discuss education issues with Sen. Angel. She believes that strong, well funded schools are the foundation of our democracy.
Education issues have always been a top priority for her, and she listens carefully to any concerns.
We need reliable, dedicated public officials who will listen to the voters, place controls on spending, and keep our education system a top priority in our state. I know that Sen. Angel is that person.

A bug-fix release RQuantLib 0.3.6
is now on CRAN and
in Debian.
combines (some of) the quantitative analytics of
QuantLib with the
R statistical computing environment and language.
There are only two changes to two files where an explicit conversion as per Rcpp::as<double> was called for. A Debian archive rebuild had triggered one of those fails to build from source bug reports as the compiler version seems to be more finicky now than when version 0.3.5 was uploaded in November. No other changes were made.
Thanks to CRANberries, there is also a diff to the previous release 0.3.5. Full changelog details, examples and more details about this package are at my RQuantLib page.

Product description
This is a book of words and meanings that urgently need your help. Fopdoodle, salmagundi, kissingcrust, runnion and stingo are all endangered for lack of use. Since Samuel Johnson completed his dictionary scores of words, such as fizgig, jobbernowl and sponk have slipped away from common usage. You will very likely never have heard of most of them while some will be known but not used. Scores of others have definitions so obscure that you wonder why a word was needed at all. Was it necessary to have quite so many different words to describe the less fortunate members of society? Many, such as atom (cannot be split) and urinal (where water is kept for inspection) have changed their meaning completely, often with hilarious consequences. Some, such as tea (lately drunk in Europe) and coffee (comforteth the brain and heart) are included to provide a glimpse of life 250 years ago. Others such as Dragon (perhaps imaginary) and Swallow (a bird that hides in winter) show as yet unfilled gaps in understanding. "Fopdoodle and Salmagundi" will delight anyone who is fascinated by the evolution, humour and eccentricity of the English language or enjoys the challenge of a word game. In compiling this selection of little used and unfrequented gems of our language the editor makes the simple request that you slip them into conversation in the hope that their use will be perpetuated. They really are too good to lose.

Author information
Samuel Johnson LL.D. 1709 - 1784, often referred to simply as Dr Johnson, was one of England's greatest literary figures: a poet, essayist, biographer, lexicographer and often considered the finest critic of English literature. He was also a great wit and prose stylist whose bons mots are still frequently quoted in print today. Between 1747 and 1755, Johnson wrote his best-known work, A Dictionary of the English Language.

Neil Young News
"Mr. Soul" lyrics by Neil Young
[Note: This is one of a series of articles which provide an explanation of the meaning of Neil's "Mr. Soul". While the interpretation of lyrics presented here is composed of several viewpoints, there is little consensus on the exact meaning of Neil's songs. The themes and symbolism of Young's songwriting provide a rich tapestry on which to project various meanings and analysis. ]
FROM: The Warped Vinyl Junkie "Oh, hello, Mister Soul, I dropped by to pick up a reason This seems to be the prayer of the artist who has suddenly discovered that
the price of acceptance is fame, and is doing his best not to lose his
"soul," his artistic focus and honesty, even trying to "pick up a reason"
that could explain why this has to be the case. Mister Soul's identity
does not seem to be important to the development of the song...it could be
that the singer is having a talk with himself, or that he is asking a wiser
mentor, or even getting encouragement from other sources, such as music.
"I'll cop out to the change,"
The admission of his own guilt at wanting success and its trappings, and
the realization that this change is actually happening to him.
"But a stranger is putting the tease on."
Here we are given the focus for the remaining 2 verses: a stranger (who
appears to be possibly a groupie, or more particularly a female fan who
manages to gain the singer's attention in a direct way) is giving the
singer a reason and an occasion to raise this very question in his mind.
"I was down on a frown when a messenger brought me a letter."
The depression of the tortured artistic soul, or more probably the simple
depression of the first glimpse of the realization that fame brings its
limitations in the artist's ability to move among the groups that have been
the source of his inspiration, is momentarily interrupted by a communique
from one person, brought by a member of his entourage or someone who is
able to forward such a message to him.
"I was raised by the praise of a fan who said I upset her."
The letter has lifted the spirits of the artist, who has realized that he
has indeed managed to make contact, most likely through his art, with one
other person...upsetting her here in the sense of confronting her with
thoughts that make her search her own psychological makeup and/or belief
"Any girl in the world could have easily known me better."
Here is the line that raises the question of just who this female fan, or
groupie, is. While she is apparently not someone who is intimately
familiar with the singer in a multiplicity of ways, she apparently is
familiar with one aspect of him, and (as we shall see) is unwilling to let
go of that aspect in favor of others that he might possess. Perhaps she
has known him as a singer, a songwriter, an instrumentalist, even a lover,
but in one way or another has not been willing or able to move past that
one aspect to others, or to deal with his artistic change or growth. The
telling point here is that we are not told that this female fan does not
know him at all, but rather that any other female (or any other person?)
could have known him better, and easily--apparently by familiarizing
herself with more of his oeuvre and what stands behind it.
"She said, 'You're strange, but don't change;' "
The fan has paid a left-handed compliment to the artist, acknowledging that
he has upset her way of thinking, but adding that she does not wish him to
go on probing her psyche through his art...that she wants him to remain
just as he is, possibly because being able to pigeonhole the artist is
easier than adjusting to the changing personae he may adopt. (Amazing how
prophetic this line sounds, through a look back across Neil's career, isn't
"And I let her."
The most cryptic line in the song. I let her...what? Question her own
being because of my art? Deal with my changing personae? Go on believing I
would never change? Visit me in my dressing room? Dictate how my music
would be played and my life lived? Or possibly even, I let her...where the
artist was when the communique reached him...down; I let her know that I
would indeed change...and I let her change, knowing that I would, too.
"In a while will the smile on my face turn to plaster,
Stick around while the clown who is sick does the trick of disaster.
For the race of my head and my face is moving much faster."
Here we are treated to an almost self-analytical look at the difference
between the inner and outer parts of the singer's life. Although the
letter has managed to make the singer lifted and made happy (the smile),
that smile must soon harden (notice this is not a question but a statement:
the smile on my face will, in a while, turn to plaster) as he once again
confronts his public with the pieces of his art that he has prepared for
them, his outward and public side (face) competing with the demons inside
him (head) that make him productive and his art meaningful--the clown who
is sick referring to the tortured mental state of the productive artist and
his changing conceptions of beauty and truth; the trick of disaster
referring to the amazing ability to make that supreme jump from one mind to
another through the artistic connection of production and presentation--and
that competition between the public person and the artistic talent becoming
ever more stretched and tense as the artist's fame grows and his ability to
express himself artistically blossoms.
"Is it strange I should change?"
With all this turmoil, and this ability to make others think, can I the
artist legitimately afford to stand still?
"I don't know, why don't you ask her?"
Rather than give you an easy answer, why not look at what this one simple
human contact has accomplished? Not only has the art I have put out
altered this lady's conception or herself and those around her, but her
reaction to it has caused me to confront who I am as an artist, and
determine that I have no choice but to contribute. Just as I have changed
her, as she has said in her note, so she has changed me by asking me not to
change, and making me once again realize the power of art to make a
difference. Of course I will change, just as she has changed.
That's my short take on it...if I wasn't clear in any points of my
interpretation, please ask me for clarification.
come gander at my pulchritude and perversity

WATCH - Press Conference Video
Beau Baldwin didn't get the chance this past season to enjoy the most recent fruits of his labors at Eastern Washington University.
That's because he was too busy creating a little bit of history of his own as head coach at his alma mater, Central Washington University, as both the Eagles and Wildcats finished the 2007 season among the top eight teams in their respective classifications.
After one season at the helm of the NCAA Division II Wildcats, Baldwin is returning to Eastern as head coach of a NCAA Football Championship Subdivision program as the announcement was made Jan. 4 by athletic director Bill Chaves. Baldwin, 35, is EWU's 20th head football coach and will lead the school in its 100th football campaign this fall.
"From all the contacts we made with people nationally, regionally and locally, Beau is a rising superstar in the coaching industry," said EWU athletic director Bill Chaves, who directed the search. "His familiarity with Eastern as offensive coordinator and his experience last year as head coach made him a perfect fit for the Eastern Football program."
Baldwin's resume includes 14 seasons as a collegiate coach, including four as an offensive coordinator and one as a head coach. A 1996 graduate of Central, he has helped coach teams to one national championship, five conference championships and a 7-5-1 record in six post-season playoff appearances.
Including four seasons as a quarterback at Central, his entire 18-year career as a player and coach has been spent at either CWU or EWU. His record as a collegiate coach is 91-61-1 (.598) with a 48-28 league mark (.632).
Baldwin takes over an Eastern football program that advanced to the FCS Playoffs three out of the last four seasons under Paul Wulff, who left Eastern in December for the head coaching position at Washington State University. Eastern was 9-4 this past season and advanced to the quarterfinals of the playoffs behind an offense that included sophomore starter Matt Nichols at quarterback and three sophomore starters at wide receiver.
As many as 30 players with starting experience are expected to return for the 2008 season, including a total of 285 starts returning. That would represent the most starts the Eagles have had returning since at least the 2001 season.
"It's definitely a great situation for our team," said Nichols. "Everybody on the team already respects him as a coach and person. He'll be a great leader for the team."
After spending four seasons in EWU's program and helping lead the Eagles to FCS Playoff appearances in 2004 and 2005, Baldwin led Central to a 10-3 record and the 2007 NCAA Division II Playoffs where it knocked off Ashland 40-24 in the first round.
On Nov. 24, the Wildcats scored two touchdowns in the final 2:49 to upset previously undefeated and top-ranked Nebraska-Omaha 20-17 in the second round. In the quarterfinals on Dec. 1, Central lost to No. 1 ranked and two-time defending champion Grand Valley State 41-21.
On those very same days in the FCS Playoffs, Eastern had similar fate. The Eagles opened the playoffs by handing second-seeded and No. 3 ranked McNeese State its first loss of the season with an overwhelming 44-15 victory. Eastern was then edged 38-35 by two-time defending champion Appalachian State in the quarterfinals.
After coaching 2005 Walter Payton Award Winner Erik Meyer at EWU, Baldwin recruited and coached Nichols for two seasons. Nichols had a school-record 17 interceptions as a freshman when a youthful Eastern team finished just 3-8, but he rebounded as a sophomore to win Big Sky Conference Offensive Player of the Year honors and throw a school-record 34 touchdown passes.
"He helped improve my mechanics, my footwork and my accuracy," Nichols said. "He took me from being a high school quarterback and helped me become a college quarterback. He's a great coach and there is still a lot I can learn from him."
The Wildcats averaged 398.5 yards of total offense per game in 2007, including an average of 263.5 passing. Central averaged 31.4 points per game, including five games with at least 40 points.
Baldwin's quarterback was Mike Reilly, who was one of 24 national candidates for the Harlon Hill Trophy as the top player in Division II football. He earned All-Region honors after completing 62 percent of his passes for 3,386 yards, 30 touchdowns and just 10 interceptions for a passing efficiency rating of 145.8.
Baldwin, a quarterback himself at CWU and a former teammate of NFL starter Jon Kitna, watched from 2 1/2 hours away in Ellensburg, Wash., as Eastern and Nichols produced similar statistics in 2007.
The Eagles finished the season with an average of 462.3 yards of offense per game (sixth in FCS), including 295.4 passing (eighth) and average of 33.6 points per game. Nichols finished with 3,744 passing yards and 4,136 yards of total offense to rank second in school history in both categories. He led the league and ranked fifth in FCS in both total offense (318.2) and passing offense (288.0), and was eighth in passing efficiency (156.5).
Eagles Feature One of the Top Offenses in the Nation in 2004 and 2005 . . .
In 2004 and 2005 with Baldwin as coordinator, Eastern had one of the best offenses in the nation thanks to the arm and legs of Meyer. In 2005, the Eagles averaged 477.8 yards per game to rank fourth nationally, and were 14th in scoring (35.0). A year earlier, the Eagles averaged 475.5 yards and 37.5 points per game to rank sixth. Eastern also ranked in the top 10 nationally both years in passing offense and passing efficiency.
Meyer had 84 touchdown passes with just 17 interceptions in his career to set a FCS record for passing efficiency (166.47). The All-American broke 14 school records and two Big Sky marks as he was twice selected as the league's Offensive Player of the Year before winning the Payton Award as the top player in the FCS.
"I'm very happy for him," said Meyer, who is rehabilitating a broken leg that kept from continuing his pro career last fall. "It's a great opportunity and he really deserves it. I honestly don't think I would have had the success I had without his coaching. He taught me a lot of things about football and life. He was a great mentor to have on an off the field."
In Baldwin's first season at EWU, the Eagles ranked 29th in I-AA in scoring (31.27) and were 47th in offense (380.0). In his last season at EWU in 2006, Eastern was 77th in FCS in total offense (310.3 yards per game), 34th in passing (201.90 and 77th in scoring (19.5).
Before coming to EWU, Baldwin spent seven seasons and nine overall at CWU with positions as quarterbacks coach and co-offensive coordinator. A 1996 graduate of CWU, he served seven years under head coach John Zamberlin, a former EWU assistant coach and now head coach at Idaho State.
A former Wildcat quarterback from 1990-93, Baldwin passed along his knowledge to two of the greatest quarterbacks in CWU history en route to two of the school's best-ever seasons. He was quarterbacks coach in 1994-95 when All-American Jon Kitna was in Ellensburg, leading CWU to a 10-3-1 record and the NAIA Championship in 1995. The Wildcats also advanced to the NAIA Playoffs in 1998.
Baldwin also coached All-American Zak Hill - a former assistant coach at EWU - as the Wildcats finished the 2002 season 11-1. Central ranked fifth in NCAA Division II before losing in the first round of the playoffs.
In six of his nine seasons at CWU, the Wildcats led their conference in passing and were at least second in scoring and total offense. In 2002, Central ranked second in NCAA Division II in passing offense (315 yards per game) and was fourth in total offense (465) and 11th in scoring (36.8).
Two-Time Team Captain Was Backup Behind NFL Standout Jon Kitna . . .
As a player, Baldwin was a two-time team captain and completed 121-of-197 passes for 1,655 yards and eight touchdowns. His career completion percentage of .614 is a school record. In a 38-35 win versus Simon Fraser in 1991, he set single-game school records for attempts (52), completions (32), yards (467), total plays (66) and total yards (550). He had a 6-yard touchdown pass with four seconds left to give the Wildcats the win.
A year later, Baldwin came off the bench to lead CWU to the greatest fourth-quarter comeback in Columbia Football Association history. He completed 21-of-33 passes for 222 yards as the Wildcats scored 26 points in the final quarter to overcome a 28-3 deficit and defeat Eastern Oregon 29-28.
His final two seasons he was a backup to Kitna, who now plays for Detroit in the National Football League. He then coached Kitna for two more seasons, including the national title year in 1995.
Baldwin graduated in 1990 from Curtis High School in Tacoma, Wash. He earned three letters in football and three in baseball and helped lead Curtis to the 1989 State AAA title in football along with his former fellow EWU coach Brian Strandley.
He was born May 21, 1972, in Santa Barbara, Calif. He and his wife Nicole have a girl named Mia Janae who was born Dec. 29, 2004. Their second daughter, Macie Patricia, was born Nov. 22, 2006. Although spelled differently, Macie received her name because she was born the day before Thanksgiving Day and the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade gave her parents the idea.
Nicole (formerly Nicole Monforton) is a graduate of Eastern (bachelor's degree in journalism in 2001) and Spokane's Valley Christian High School (1997). She met Beau while working as a graduate student in EWU's sports information office.
14 seasons as a coach, including 10 at Central Washington University and four at Eastern Washington University. He also played quarterback for four seasons at CWU.
Has coached in 13 post-season playoff games (record of 7-5-1), including two appearances in the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision Playoffs (record of 1-2), two appearances in the NCAA Division II Playoffs (record of 2-2) and two appearances in the NAIA Playoffs (record of 4-1-1).
Has coached on teams that have won five conference championships (Big Sky Conference in 2005 and 2004, Great Northwest Athletic Conference in 2002, Columbia Football Association in 2000 and 1998).
Received bachelor's degree from Central Washington University in 1996.
Birthdate: May 21, 1972 in Santa Barbara, Calif..
He is formerly from Tacoma, Wash., and graduated from Curtis High School in 1990. His wife Nicole is from Spokane, Wash., and is a 2000 graduate of Eastern. They have two daughters -- Mia Janae (3) and Macie Patricia (1).

Tim Clark hit a 23-foot putt for birdie on No. 13 (and it was a beauty), and he moves to 19-under, two strokes ahead of Marino (who just parred the hole). Steve Stricker just missed his birdie chance at No. 14.
