DNR controversy has revealed a lack of understanding about harvesting game.
When it comes to making land available for hunting and trapping, I see both sides of the issue ("DNR weighs opening more rare natural sites to hunters," June 23).
I am a hunter and appreciate having land on which to hunt. Yet, I also am a photographer and really enjoy observing and photographing the natural and undisturbed landscape.
I do not consider these two perspectives to be at odds with one another. I hunt mostly on private land, and have enjoyed the generosity of landowners. And I have no problem at all with keeping some pieces of public land off-limits to hunting. I know that when people are out in the woods hunting, it can pose a safety risk for others who don't hunt and want to enjoy walking on the land.
I get that. But what I don't get is the venom of certain people — recent letter writers — who attack hunting and hunters and want to call us names and make us out to be evildoers.
I would like to respectfully point out that hunting is a very meaningful tradition for me and my family. It goes back to my grandfather, who used to hunt and trap to put food on the table during the Depression.
My dad, who grew up during the Depression and fought in World War II, passed down that tradition to me and my brothers. I continue it today, and have passed it down to my children. We enjoy time together in the woods and have many fond memories of our days in the field.
Yet it's more than that. We eat what we harvest.
Taking a cue from Native Americans, I try to use what I harvest to feed myself and my family. I do recognize that some hunters don't show the same respect for the animals they harvest, and see animals as something merely to be conquered as a way to feed their own pride.
Like those who oppose hunting, I am against this practice and attitude. But I urge people to be respectful toward those of us who choose to hunt. I believe we can find a solution to this issue if we can have meaningful conversations and treat one another with respect.

Mariah Carey Shooting The Butler Pictures
Mariah Carey Joins Oprah, Lenny, and Cuba on The Butler
Mariah Carey stepped out of her trailer yesterday on the New Orleans set of The Butler joining co-stars Oprah Winfrey and Lenny Kravitz. The Lee Daniels-directed film has drawn a wide range of major stars including Cuba Gooding Jr., John Cusack, Robin Williams, and James Marsden as well. Lenny's been sharing personal snaps from Louisiana including a candid of Oprah and Cuba together in a scene. It appears Daniels called upon friends and former colleagues to contribute to the film; in fact, Mariah was one of the stars of his 2009 best picture nominee, Precious.
In addition to starting a new big-screen project, Mariah also shared a sneak peek at her forthcoming music video "Triumphant (Get 'Em)" last night on BET's 106 & Park. Mariah's also prepping to embark on her first season of American Idol. Rumors are swirling that Nicki Minaj may join her behind the judging table in 2013 when the show returns for its twelfth season. There's been no confirmation from Nicki or the show, but sources close to the show say a deal is in the works — are you excited to see Nicki on American Idol?

Pretty sweet
Im just curious as to what programs you used in the creation of this beast! :D
Rated 5 / 5 stars
This song is just amazing. I fucking love it.
The piano reminded me a lot of Scott Storch, one of my favorite producers. So kudos to that. Plus the chick singing and the dubstep elements. What a great mix. At first I didn't really think it was dubstep, but then I couldn't figure out what genre it was and realized that dubstep is probably what it is closest to. I hear some hip hop, jazz, and of course dubstep. It's just amazing.And it's so relxaing. Everything just fits together so nicely, especially the girl singing. This is some beautiful music and I fucking love it. I hope to hear a lot more from ya.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Just... awesome...
The song is just to epic, your stile is unique man.
Your songs put me in a awesome and constant contemplating process, I am just standing there and starring at stuff, they have a never seen before drug effect.
Just... awesome...

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M Karunanidhi said on Friday that sustained efforts would be taken after the June 2010 International Classical Tamil conference to make Tamil an official language of the Union Government.
"Efforts for the benefit of Tamil language would not just stop with the classical Tamil conference in Coimbatore but we will make sustained efforts to ensure that it is made an official language of the Government of India," Mr. Karunanidhi, whose DMK is a key constituent of the UPA, said.
Speaking to reporters here after chairing a review meeting of scholars and officials on the progress of works for next year's conference, he said "we will keep doing it until we succeed."
Urging all parties in the state to participate in the conference setting aside mutual differences, he said the focus should be on the development of Tamil.
Invitations had been extended to President Pratibha Patil, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi to participate in the event, he said.
More than 1200 delegates from many countries including US, UK, Singapore and Sri Lanka were expected to participate in the conference, Mr. Karunanidhi said.

How long do I have to stay in school? (compulsory attendance laws)
"Illiteracy is an enduring disability. . . .The inability to read and write will handicap the individual each and every day of his life." [U.S. Supreme Court, Plyler v. Doe, 457 US 202 (1982)]
The laws differ in every state as to the ages for compulsory school attendance. You can call any school or district office to find out what′s required where you live.
If you stop going to school before graduating from high school, you can still earn your diploma. Once you′re out of school for six months, you′re eligible to enroll in a GED (Graduate Equivalency Diploma) program. When you pass the test and receive your diploma, you′ll be able to continue with your education or return to it at a later date.
The law doesn′t mandate that you attend a mainstream high school. If your interests lie elsewhere, or your study habits require something other than six hours a day in a classroom, other programs are available. Look into a trade school or vocational program in your area.
If a student wants to drop out of North High School in Denver, Colorado, the school requires the student and his or her parents to sign a certificate that says: "The undersigned guardian and student accept full responsibility for the listed student being a high school dropout. By signing this disclaimer, I realize that I will not have the necessary skills to survive in the twenty-first century." Most students choose to remain in school and participate in counseling or tutoring programs.
Some states have increased the minimum level of education to the twelfth grade. Other states are considering suspending driver′s licenses for teens who don′t go to school. Generally, you can stay in high school until you graduate. You′re not excluded, for example, if you′re a sophomore at age eighteen or nineteen. Some states set a maximum age for regular school attendance at twenty-one.
To get high school dropouts involved in education, communities have developed a variety of nontraditional programs. Some help teens with substance abuse issues, while others address teen parenthood or delinquency problems.
Project Challenge is a quasimilitary federal program sponsored by the National Guard. It′s currently in operation in fifteen states: Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma,Virginia, and West Virginia.
Project Challenge presents a blend of classroom study, community service, and physical training in a seventeen-month program for sixteen- and seventeen- year-old dropouts who are drug-free and not involved with the court.
On the lighter side:
- Although California allows kids under 12 one free admission day at citrus fruit fairs, don′t make it a school day. It will be counted against you as an unexcused absence.
- Living on an island isn′t considered a good enough excuse for missing a day of school in Massachusetts. Transportation will be provided for you so you don′t miss any days.
If you′re pregnant or have children, you may either finish high school at your regular school, or the district may have a special program for teen mothers. Check with your school counselor for more details.
The National and Community Service Act provides another opportunity to help pay for an education or job training. The program is designed for young people who aren′t in school, and have limited English language skills or are homeless or in foster care.You must be between ages sixteen and twenty-five to be considered eligible. Members perform community service work and are paid an allowance of up to $125 per month during the first year. During the second year, members receive up to $200 per month. Check with a high school counselor or your local youth services bureau for information on how to apply.
Can your parents get in trouble if you miss school?
In May, 2008, Brian Gegner of Ohio was sentenced to 180 days in jail for failing to keep his daughter in school. Brittany was 18 and had been ordered by the court to get her GED with the help of her father. The court gave her nine months to accomplish the task but she missed the deadline and her dad went to jail!
"You cannot drop out of school and into a good job. If you quit on school, you're quiting on yourself and your country." President Barack Obama, Sept. 8, 2009.
"I didn't finish high school, only went through the 10th grade. There is never a day that comes up that I don't regret not finishing school. If I'd gone to school, I might have gotten a degree in computers or, maybe, music." -Blues legend B.B. King.

why do kids have to stay in school till there 18? im doing an english report on why we have so if you could right be that would be great.
Judge Tom's response:
Each state has its own laws regarding when you have to start school [5 or 6-years-old] and when you may stop going. Some require that you attend until age 16, others until you're 18 or when you graduate from high school. Public education through the 12th grade is free and as you've probably heard many times, education is the key to your future. -

Hi my name is tristan , i understand the we have to stay in school at a certain age but im on probation for truancy and i live in Texas i missed 18 days of school and 1 or 2 tardies i've gotten the 6 month punishment and i cant miss school unless a medical emergency or emrgency in general. What im trying to figure out is how long do we have to be in school for like hours to make it a "full day" see at my school we have a and b days a days i have nothing thats really important to miss except history in the morning my first class well say i goto all the classes after history class and get all the work that i might or might not miss for that day will a excused absence be ok if my mom came at 1 p.m. or 2 and picked me up? For lunch and school was in session stil and she took me out vu i have collected all my work before hand? Or can you just tell me the probations cans and cants for texas please
Dear Tristan: Since you're on probation for truancy you have two sets of rules you need to follow. First, your probation terms which likely include a statement that you go to school without any unexcused absences. Second, your state's laws regarding compulsory attendance and the rules of your school. If you skip classes or have any unexcused days at school, you're in violation of your probation and will be back in court explaining what happened to the judge. It is not uncommon for habitual truants to be locked up for a time in detention – that way the judge knows you're going to the court's detention school. Don't put yourself in this position. Discuss your concerns with your probation officer. Good luck.

My teacher called and said if I don't come to school I will be cared with Truancy and I wont get credit for my classes this term. I have missed two weeks of school so far. The thing is, I can't go to school. I just had surgery and my doctor said I would have to miss school for two to three weeks to recover. I had surgery on my throat and can't eat food yet, then I am taking liquid pain killer every 3 hours, and can't eat solid food yet or else I start coughing up blood. I have a doctors note to give in when I go back to school. So is it true what my teacher said.
Dear Angle: If your absences from school are for medical reasons, missed days shouldn't be held against you. It's unexcused absences that get you into trouble. Ask one of your parents to take the doctor's note to your school. They can give it to the principal or attendance officer, and that should clear you until your doctor tells you it's safe to return to school. All the best and a speedy recovery.

I signed my son out of highschool.I was going to sign him up in home school. when he decided that he was not going he is seventeen. He left the house and I reported him missing with the police. will I get into trouble because he is not in school?
Dear Flowers: It depends on the specific laws in your state concerning compulsory attendance. Not all states require teens to go to school until they are 18. However, if the age is 18 in your state, you could be held responsible, but it's unlikely if your son has never been in trouble for truancy or missing school before. Perhaps you can try talking to your son about alternative programs like Project Challenge or obtaining his GED. For more infomation about the laws in your state, try Googling your state's name and "compulsory attendance laws". Good luck.

My Daughter is 15 and has missed alot of days if she goes and lives with her dad and he doesnt put her back in school can i get in trouble for it?
Every state has its own compulsory attendance laws regarding education. If you Google the name of your state and "truancy laws" you'll be able to read the statutes that apply to you. States are cracking down on truancy, even to the point where parents are penalized for neglecting their kids' education. You could also contact the school attendance officer and ask about the consequences. Good luck.

I live in San Antonio Texas. I have 2 kids in school. I am a single, disabled mother with an income of 700.00 a month. My children get sick and the school states not to send your kids to school if they are running a fever. So I keep them home. If they are running a high fever or very sick I take them to the doctor. The school asks for a medical or parent note. I have been sent to court twice every year and have to pay 600 dollars in fines for both kids every time. Thats more than I can afford. I shouldnt be sent to court Im doing what they ask but Im still being sent. Im tired of the harassment of the schools here. My oldest son will be 16 soon. He suffers from migrains, panic attacks, insomnia, and anxiety. To much stress at school has caused these symptoms and constant harassment by the teachers. How can I get an order from the court so my son can get his GED and get away from all of the stress. Btw it was so bad this past year he broke out with shingles. Thank you
Dear Dina: We're sorry to hear about your troubles at home and with the school. It would be difficult to obtain a court order against the school and cost you hundreds of dollars in legal fees including the school's if you lose in court. We suggest you schedule a meeting with the attendance officer at school or the principal. Discuss everything that's going on with your family and hopefully you can reach an agreement that keeps you from having to go to court for their alleged truancy. Good luck.

School is not free,they force you to buy schools supplies.Although they will give students some supplies,they won't make an exception on some things.And this law is good but it's also very ridiculous.Why should kids be forced to go to school when they don't want an education.(I'm homeschooled and try hard to get excellent grades.)But I also think school shouldn't be forced down peoples throats so viciously.I may be overreacting but it still seems to be forced down peoples' throats that you have to go to school or be punished in addition to not getting a good education.Shouldn't the Government be a little more gentle about this?
Compulsory school attendance laws have been around for hundreds of years and not only in the U.S. Many societies recognize the importance of educating its citizens for their future and the good of the community at large. Once you reach the mandatory age it's your decision whether to continue or not.

My son is learning disabled. I am totally amazed at how ignorant the teachers are when I tell them what he has. He has gone thru blatant abuse, neglect, bullying, from teachers!! All I can say is, quit building all these fancy new schools, and give some money to the teachers for classes to help them learn how to teach disabled children. My son once told me: "mom, the teachers all say they want to help me but then they all are mean to me". Thats sad when an 8 yr. old says that. Teach the teachers!!! Learning Disabilities in school has doubled in the last 5-6 years, do something about it so these kids dont feel like they are failures.
Dear Letitia: We're sorry to hear about what you and your son are experiencing at his school and from his teachers. Students with disabilities do have rights protected under the law. Click here to read more about it. Perhaps a meeting with the principal could help your son get the attention he deserves and stop any inappropriate conduct especially by the teachers.

My niece is 12 and continues to miss school. She has probably missed 12+ days in the 2014-2015 school year. She was kicked off the vball team d/t attendance. Her report card shows C's D's and F's. My sister continues to make excuses for her (i.e. headaches, allergies, Flu, etc.) My question is…How many days will she be allowed to miss? Can my sister be charged w/ Abuse and Neglect? She had this same issue last year also!!! HELP!!!
Dear KAS: Every state and school district has rules regarding compulsory school attendance and the consequences for excessive absences. You can check with the school's attendance officer for information about the penalties for exceeding the limits. You can also go to the school's website, if they have one and most do, and read the Code of Conduct and section regarding excused and unexcused absences. Some states have laws about "educational neglect" but to fall into this category, the absences must be excessive and without a legitimate reason. Good luck.

My son is 17 he refuses to go to school (Ca.)he has missed whole school year what legally can happen to me the parent
Dear Kelley: California has laws regarding the consequences for truancy – for both student and parent. Take a look at this Department of Education web-page for the details:
Your son needs to realize he's hurting more than himself by neglecting his education.
Good luck.

My son is in an extended school program for young adults with disabilities. He has received a letter of completion last year for high school. He is 18 and 19 next month. Are there any laws that mandate him to this program. He has been sick a lot and in the hospital twice during this school year. Because of this he has missed a lot of school. Are either of us in trouble for all his missing days?
Dear Chris: Every state has specific laws regarding special education and compulsory attendance. You need to check with his school, either through the principal or attendance officer for the rules about excused and unexcused absences. You shouldn't be "in trouble" because of his medical needs. The school may ask for some verification of his doctor's appointments and hospitalizations which you can provide. The best to both of you.

SBS Radio is a service provided by the Special Broadcasting Service '..to inform, educate and entertain Australians, especially those of non-English speaking backgrounds'. SBS Radio originally began as two stations based in Melbourne and Sydney, set up to provide pre-recorded information about the then-new Medibank health care system in languages other than English. Today the service targets the estimated 2.7 million Australians who speak a language other than English in the home with programs in 74 languages, in addition to more mainstream audiences through programs such as World View and Alchemy.[1]
Like SBS Television, SBS Radio supplements its government funding with paid-for information campaigns for government agencies and non-profit organisations as well as commercial advertising and sponsorship.[1]
Programming and content[edit]
Most programs contain a mix of news, current affairs, sport, community information and music relating to a specific ethnic or language group. The exceptions are Alchemy (a youth program), the English language news program World View, and overnight programming from the BBC World Service.
SBS Radio has three radio services, Radio 1, Radio 2 and Radio 3, as well as a national FM service. Radio 1 is available on AM in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Wollongong (1107, 1224, 1400 and 1485 respectively) while Radio 2 is available on FM in Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra (97.7, 93.1 and 105.5) and on AM in Wollongong (1035). Radio 3 is only available on digital platforms. The national service (branded simply as SBS Radio) is available throughout the rest of the nation through FM broadcasting (except in Newcastle, where it is available on AM) and on the Optus Aurora satellite, and is composed of material from Radios 1, 2 and 3. Additionally, a few community stations in areas without dedicated SBS Radio transmitters carry some SBS Radio content.
Radio 1, Radio 2 and Radio 3 are all available nationwide through digital terrestrial television, through digital radio services in Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth, on satellite from free-to-air Optus D1 and Optus B3 C-Band satellite transmissions, and on major subscription television services (such as Foxtel and Austar). Until the launch of Radio 3 in April 2013, programs available on Radio 1 and Radio 2 varied depending on the platform and the location: for example, digital television in Brisbane played the same stations as Sydney, while digital radio in Adelaide and Perth largely followed scheduling in Melbourne.
On digital radio in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Canberra, SBS has some additional digital-only services: SBS Chill, a mix of chillout and world music; SBS PopAsia, a mixture of J-pop, K-pop and C-pop; SBS PopDesi, a mixture of Bhangra, Bollywood music and South Asian pop music; and SBS PopAraby, featuring Arabic pop music. All of these services are also available online.

Residence Life Frequently Asked Questions
When will I receive my housing assignment?
Students contracting for on-campus housing need to log in to their MySeaport account, read and agree to the terms outlined in the contract, and pay the $105 non-refundable housing contract fee. By clicking the box stating "I agree" and paying the $105 non-refundable housing contract fee, you are guaranteed a bed space on campus for that academic year. Once you successfully complete the online contract in MySeaport, students are encouraged to fill out both residence hall preferences and roommate preferences. Please note, that the preferences submitted are not guaranteed; these are only a preference and our office will work to accommodate as many preferences as we can.
Prior to June 1st, our office will run an automated housing process based on the students contract completion date. (An early housing contract receipt date is considered January or February). The sooner you complete your contract and pay the $105 non-refundable housing contract fee, the better your chance that your assignment will be made during the first round of assignments and you'll receive your first preference. Online training materials are available at www.uncw.edu/housing
May I change my housing assignment?
After the second complete week of the fall semester, The Office of Housing and Residence Life will conduct a period of open room change. Students are permitted to select a bed space based on vacancies that develop during the occupancy checks performed during the first two weeks of class. After this period, should a roommate conflict be deemed irresolvable, the Residence Coordinator and the Housing and Residence Life administrative staff will facilitate a room change outside of the assigned dates for open room changes.
Where do I go when I arrive on campus?
When you arrive on campus you will be greeted by a helpful police officer who will direct you to your check-in location provided to you in your housing move-in packet. If you are unsure of your check-in location, please click here (http://www.uncw.edu/stuaff/housing/prospective_students/movein.html) to print the placard and map of the UNCW campus. Please make sure that your vehicle displays the placard that corresponds to your residence hall or area during move-in day. Once you arrive at your area, our staff and volunteers will be there to welcome you and direct you further.
Are carts and hand trucks available for Move-In Day?
Yes, however, the volunteers will load your belongings into the carts and assist you with carrying them to your room.
Are my personal belongings insured?
As the university cannot be held accountable for loss, damage or theft to any student's personal property, all students are encouraged to carry their own insurance coverage. Your family's homeowner or tenant insurance may provide coverage, or you can arrange for personal property coverage at http://nssinc.com.
What size sheets will fit my bed?
All beds in traditional residence hall rooms are 80" long. Standard twin bed size sheets will not fit properly. Extra long sheets can be found in most retail stores. The mattress size of beds in Seahawk Village and Seahawk Landing is XL Full (53" x 80" x 6"). Deep pocket sheets are suggested.
The Residence Hall Linens program has been offered at University of North Carolina at Wilmington for years. The campus at University of North Carolina at Wilmington has extra-long mattresses that require specially sized sheets, blankets and comforters. These extra-long beds (which are greater than 76 inches in length) are meant to maximize your student's comfort.
These XL sheets can be hard to find, but to ensure that parents and students have the right size residence hall bedding on move-in day, we provide a huge selection of custom-sized linens guaranteed to fit and guaranteed to last until graduation. We also provide a variety of other items that you may need in your new room, including extra-long comforters, extra-long mattress pads, extra-long thermal blankets, pillows, and storage solutions.

A numerical investigation of sub-wavelength resonances in polygonal metamaterial cylinders
Optics Express, Vol. 17, Issue 18, pp. 16059-16072 (2009)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (810 KB)
The sub-wavelength resonances, known to exist in metamaterial radiators and scatterers of circular cylindrical shape, are investigated with the aim of determining if these resonances also exist for polygonal cylinders and, if so, how they are affected by the shape of the polygon. To this end, a set of polygonal cylinders excited by a nearby electric line current is analyzed numerically and it is shown, through detailed analysis of the near-field distribution and radiation resistance, that these polygonal cylinders do indeed support sub-wavelength resonances similar to those of the circular cylinders. The dispersion and loss, inevitably present in realistic metamaterials, are modeled by the Drude and Lorentz dispersion models to study the bandwidth properties of the resonances.

- It should be noted that the initial HFSS model utilized radiation boundaries instead of the perfectly matched layers. However, such a model resulted in inconsistent results, in particular with varying side length w, despite the fact that the distance from the perfectly matched layers to the polygonal cylinders and the ELC was larger than λ0/4 as suggested by HFSS, and despite improved discretization along the radiation boundaries. This problem was alleviated by use of perfectly matched layers for which the default discretization options were sufficient to obtain consistent and convergent results.
- It is important to note that the delta energy, ∆E, which is the difference in the relative energy error from one adaptive solution to the next, and serves as a stopping criterion for the solution, was set to 0.01 in all cases. This value of ∆E was targeted and obtained in 3 consecutive adaptive solutions for the 48-, 24-, 12-, and 8-sided PCs, and in 2 consecutive adaptive solutions for the 4-sided PCs.
- For the 4-sided PC, the MNG shell in the non-dispersive model is described by permeability μ2=−4μ0 and a loss tangent of 0.001 for all frequencies.

Practice WCS is a site designed to collect drills, practice strategies, and learning tips for west coast swing dancers. Helping dancers practice more effectively improves the west coast dance community for everyone!
My name is Colin, and I'm a west coast dancer from Wisconsin. I fell in love with WCS because it continually challenges me to become a better dancer, and I hope this site can help give back to the community for the amazing experiences I've had with this dance. For individual dancers, this site aims to be a comprehensive collection of practice techniques for you to use. For instructors, I hope that the site helps you generate ideas for drills to give to your own students. Finally, I hope to learn from readers through your feedback, comments, and suggestions.
Readers are encouraged to submit practice techniques from pro workshops, private lessons, or their own experiences. You can reach me at firstname.lastname@example.com. If you are a professional WCS instructor and would like to be a guest contributor to the site, please contact me!
I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge the tremendous support I have received throughout my journey learning this dance. While many of the posts on this site will represent my best efforts to synthesize the ideas I have learned from multiple instructors, there are some giants whose approach to the dance has transformed my understanding, and I want to credit them for their influence on this site. It would be impossible to list all of the instructors I have grown from in classes, workshops, and privates, but I should pay homage to a couple of figures in particular: Mario Robau, Jr. and Jordan and Tatiana. Perhaps the best acknowledgment I can give to them is that their understanding of the dance has so transformed my own thinking that I often find it hard to distinguish what I believe about west coast from what I have learned from them. Last but certainly not least, my dancing has been guided from the very first triple by Sheli Schroeder. Anything that I do right on the dance floor is in no small measure a product of her coaching and dedication. (And trust me—everything I do wrong, she's yelled at me for. It's not her fault, I promise.)
Thank you for your support, and keep becoming awesome!


text: Unauthorised Access UK 0636-708063 10pm-7am 12oo/24oo This extract was taken from Personal Computer World and written by Duncan Campbell. Comms Surveillance Data comms and electronic mail do pose special problems in relation to comms interception, since such messages (in contrast to telephone calls) are intrinsically 'machine readable'. Although British domestic communications (whether data or voice) are only suposed to be intercepted if a specific warrant is issued, few people comprehend the scale on which Western intelligence agencies are already routinely intercepting all civil international communications.As long ago as 1960, defectors from the United States NSA (National Security Agency also know as No Such Agency) revealed at a Moscow press conference that 'both enciphered and plain text communications are monitored from almost every nation in the world, including the nations on whose soil the intercept bases are located'. Soon US, British and Allied intelligence agencies will embark on a massive, billion-dollar expansion of their global electronic surveillance system, which will enable them to monitor and analyse civilian and comercial communications into the 21st century. According to information recently given secrectly to the US Congress, a new surveillance system, currently identified as Project P415, is being set up by NSA. Many other countries' intelligence agencies will be closely involved with the new network, including those from Britain, Austrialia, Germany and Japan, and even the People's Republic Of China. New satellite stations and monitoring centres are to be built around the world, and a chain of new satellites launched, so that NSA and GCHQ Cheltenham, its British counterpart, may keep abreast of the burgeoning international telecommunications traffic. The largest existing station in this network is the US communications base at Menwith Hill, near Harrogate, Yorkshire, which has taps into Britain's main national and international networks. Although high-technology stations such as Menwith Hill are primarily intended to monitor international comminications and control ultra-secret eavesdropping satellites, their capability can be and has been turned inwards on domestic tariff, according to US experts. This vast international global eavesdropping network has existed since shortly after the Second World War, when the US, Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand signed a secret agreement on signals intelligence, or 'SIGINT'. Although it is impossible for transcribers to listen to all but a small fraction of the billions of telephone calls and other signals which might contain interesting information, computer data signals can easily be processed in any way that NSA or GCHQ analysts require. The agencies' computers automatically analyse every telex message or data signal, and can als identify calls to, say, a target telephone number in London, no matter from which country they originate. At present, Operations Building 36M at the NSA's Menwith Hill station contains a network of eighteen powerful DEC VAX-11 processors supporting this and related tasks. Menwith Hill's nest of computers is part of a global system called Echelon, which will eventually be superseded by Project P415. Both the new and existing surveillance systems are highly computerised, and rely on virtually total interception of international commercial and satellite communications in order to locate data of interest. Early last summer a US newspaper, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, revealed that the system had been used to target the telephone calls of a US senator. British and American domestic communications are also being targeted and intercepted by the Echelon network, the US investigators have been told, despite legal provisions that should make such intentional interception illegal. Special teams from GCHQ have been secretly flown in the last few years to a computer centre in Silicon Valley for training on the computer systems that preform both domestic and international interception. Recently published US Department of Defense 1989 budget information has confirmed that the Menwith Hill base would be the subject of a major, $26million expansion programme. Information given to the US Congress in February listed details of plans for a four-year expansion of facilities at Menwith Hill. Among other important stations being developed in the new P415 network, US intelligence sources say, are a GCHQ base in Cornwall, which intercepts links to and from many western commercial satellites. This spy base, at Morwenstow near Bude, has been continuously expanded thoughout the 1980s. When Britian's new interception of Communications Act was passed in 1985, however, it was obviously designed to make special provision for operations like Echelon to trawl all international communications to and from Britian. A special section of the Act, Section 3(2), allows warrants to be issued to intercept any general type of international messages to or from Britain, if this is 'in the interests of national security' or 'for the purpose of safeguarding the economic well-being of the United Kingdom'. Such warrants also allow GCHQ to tap all other communications on the same cables or satellites that may have to be picked up in order to select the messages they want. In practice, everything is intercepted. There is no doubt that British law, along with British bases, has been designed to encourage rather than inhibit this booming industry in international data surveillance. This is quite a new development. In the 1960s, British government and Treasury officials took a lot of convincing (by the Americans) that the interception of ordinary commercial data communications was worthwhile.


text: Information Hello. My purpose for this page is to get you acquainted with Earthbound Zero, as well as this Earthbound Zero Shrine. By the time you get through here, the mystery surrounding this game should (could) be cleared...possibly... I'M NEW HERE, WHAT EXACTLY IS EARTHBOUND ZERO??? -Earthbound Zero (as the name suggests) is the prequel to the Snes game, Earthbound. Back in Japan, this is known as the Mother series. WHAT'S UP WITH THE CHARACTER NAMES? I'm glad you (you being me, who is simply talking to himself) asked that question. The game does not "have" names for the characters in the game. Since there were no official American publications on the subject, in a way, they don't have names. But in a different, more accurate way, they do. We know him and love him as Ness, but in this game, his actual name is "Ninten" (you can see where the "Ness" came from, huh?)

Trapping Enter key in Windows Forms TextBox
Suppose you want to do something special when the user hits enter in one of your Windows Forms app's TextBoxes? "Easy!", you say, thinking about hooking up a KeyDown event handler – until you try it and find out it doesn't actually work. And then you go Googling, just like I did earlier today.
And yeah, it's true, you can't catch keys reserved for form navigation with KeyDown or KeyPress events. Well, that blows. Of course, a quick search of the web turns up quite a few workarounds, so you're saved. Since I figured this out already, let me save you some time.
When a key is hit in a TextBox control, a method named IsInputKey gets called on the control. That method takes a Keys enumeration as a parameter and returns a bool – true if that particular key is an "input key", false if not. False also means that the form handler will take care of (or ignore) the keystrike instead of passing it over to the control. And you guessed it, TextBox.IsInputKey returns false for Keys.Enter (this is different if you have a multiline textbox and AcceptReturn enabled, but let's not go there now).
So, your problem is solved once you make your TextBoxes accept enter as an input key. The answer is subclassing the textbox, i.e. creating your own control. That's not really as bad as it sounds. In fact, you can get away with just this:
public class EnterTextBox : TextBox { protected override bool IsInputKey(Keys key) { if (key == Keys.Enter) return true; return base.IsInputKey(key); } }
Now start using your new textbox controls. If you're using no IDE at all or you have Visual Studio, just go and substitute new EnterTextBox()
for new System.Windows.Forms.TextBox()
. VS's Form Designer seems to handle this quite nicely. If you're using #develop, you can't use that shortcut – #develop forms designer will wipe away your textboxes. Luckily your EnterTextBox will have appeared in the Custom Components section of the toolbox, so it's only a matter of dragging some controls.
As you can guess, the following event handler now works properly:
void TextBox1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e) { if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Enter) { e.Handled = true; MessageBox.Show("Enter hit in textbox1!"); } }
Remember to set Handled
to true to signal the textbox that the keystroke has actually been dealt with already.
If you did the Googling part, you probably saw there are a few other solutions to this as well. One of them involves overriding ProcessDialogKey, and another common one is overriding the WndProc handler. They both get notifications for enter hits regardless of what IsInputKeys returns. If you have a static definition for what enter should mean (for example, always clear the field), you could use one of those approaches. However, if the action required varies by field, you should use the solution above to override IsInputKey instead – that way you can hook into the KeyDown event to customize behavior on an instance-by-instance basis.

first, thanks for the article, helped me a lot.
When I first tried to use your solution, I ran into some problems – althought I made everything as you did, with the difference that I was not using a TextBox but a ToolStripTextBox.
I modified your code to override the ToolStripTextBox – but did have no success the overridden Method was never called.
When I replaced the ToolStripTextBox with a regular TextBox everything worked fine. -

I have this implemented for the tab & shift-tab key. Everything works as I want, but every time the tab or shift-tab key is pressed a beep sound is generated! Does anyone know why ? and how to prevent it from happening.
Not sure if this matters but my inherited textbox control resides on a usercontrol (and not a dialog or form)
Thanks. -
Brian - February 28, 2006
You can also try this:
private void txtMyTextBox_KeyPress(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs e)
//if the user presses the Enter key, do some action
int ascii = (int)e.KeyChar;
if (ascii == 13)
e.Handled = true;
} -

I like your solution Brian.
Saved me a lot of work with this trick.
Thx :) -
Eric - May 26, 2006
Thank you. This was very helpful.
I did note one thing that may help others.
I originally encountered this problem on a form with the AcceptButton property set to an "OK" button.
When I reset the AcceptButton property to "(none)", I was able to intercept the ENTER button without overriding the IsInputKey method.
For me this, was an easier change. I simply communicate the DialogResult differently.
-Eric. -

you sir are a legend. congratulations upon receiving such an accolade.
saved me a good spot of google trawling ™
cheers buddy

Hmm – just tried this in .NET 2.0, and it seems that KeyPress is fired when an Enter is sent to a vanilla textbox. Is this something that's likely to have been fixed in the new version?
xtian - December 18, 2006
Oops – changed the form so that the AcceptButton was set, and saw exactly the behaviour you describe. Thanks!
Yuri - March 26, 2007
e.Handled = True. Too right.
Thanks a lot! IsInputKey's been driving me nuts. -

Nice, just that I needed.

Dameure - April 10, 2008
Thanks a lot. Great solution :-)
ALexanderT - October 2, 2009
just put this in an keydown or up event:
if (e.KeyData == Keys.Enter)
//do action
}easy, clean and quick
Róbert Badí Baldursson - December 10, 2009
This didn't work as expected for me originally untill I changed the event from KeyDown to KeyPress and then the event handler looks like this:
private void _example_KeyPress(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs e)
if (e.KeyChar == Convert.ToChar(13))
e.Handled = true;
_btn_Click(this, e);

At one point, I was up to 53 guitars. It was just too many to deal with. Some never were played...
Currently, I'm down to 33 (plus 2 banjos and a mandolin). Still too many, but slowly creeping down. I'll force myself to sell at least two, before I buy another one...
I have a good collection of these...
Like many of us, I really only "need" 2-3 guitars for what I do. At one time I had over a dozen electrics and several acoustics, but I have pared that down to 8-9 electrics and my Taylor and lap steel. I also have more amps than I need (7-8) but I try to ensure that everything gets played at least once in a while. As others have mentioned, my self-imposed limit is the number that I can make space for, without putting my marriage in jeopardy.
Our philosophies are very similar. I don't buy often, and I very rarely sell.
Tone variety wise I'd be happy with four (Strat, Tele, PRS, acoustic), and I could live without the Strat. I've ended up with two of each in the electric world, though, because I like the redundancy for back-up or if one isn't doing it for me at a given time. Plus I'm emotionally attached to all of them.
I could get by with 1 Tele but I have no desire to do so. Right now I have more guitars than stands/hangers so I'm at the limit. Something needs to go if one comes in.
For my guitar skill level just one Squier would be enough (with all respect to the brand) but I have 7. There is a popular saying in my country that translated to English would be 'a coffin does not have drawers' meaning that you cannot take your money to the grave. So I think the number of guitar is directly proportional to three factors: your GAS, your Budget, and your wives tolerance for this hobby!!!!! Lolol
I currently have 5 electrics and 1 acoustic. 2 standard, one drop D, one Drop C and one drop B. All the electrics get plenty of use, but the acoustic doesn't.
For the first time in a long time, I don't have GAS.
I have 9 and a good example of each main food group; Suhr Tele, SVL Strat, '54 RI LP, '59 RI 335, PRS DGT, Carvin Holdsworth HH1, Reverend Flatroc, Lakland DJ bass, Collings CJ35. As Steve Martin once said, "that's all I need" ! Beyond that number, i get uncomfortable. Even 9 is pushing it.
as it does with EVERYTHING, money is going to dictate how many guitars we own. there's not a person on this forum who wouldn't say if they hit the lotto, they wouldn't own more guitars than they do now. i have 3 prs's, and might someday have 1 or 2 more, but for now, i'm very happy, thankful, and appreciative of the 3 i own.
I don't think that's really true. While the amount of capital guides the initial acquisitions...at a certain point you reach saturation and move on to other things...you realize that when strings rust to hell before getting a chance to play a guitar in your collection...maybe you don't really need that special limited one off after all..even if money isn't an object...you may decide to move around pieces for quality...but not necessarily quantity....capital is nice to have when you want to make certain acquisitions....money provides flexibility....doesn't necessarily mean it has to be burned.

We just do what we think is fair, makes sense, and works well for us. The neighbors question it, but given their conversation topics when we socialize I reckon they should take notes. We do have a shared account for automated bills and entertainment. If we go out to eat for example we'd pay with that account. Outside of this it doesn't get used. When getting groceries we will split a cart but I pay for my food and she pays for hers. So if I want a guitar, I need to make sure I and I alone can cover it. There's no shared funds for that type of thing. And I reckon there shouldn't be. It's my guitar. If something happens to us it goes with me. I bought it.

I'm going to sell one to help fund an engagement ring. I looked at what I could sell and I realised I had more guitars than I need so I'm more than happy to offload one.

I have 7 electrics, 1 bass and 1 acoustic. I only gig with my 3 PRS guitars. I dont like my LP, lost interest in my schecter and my G&L, well I just Keep it at home. The G&L was my first new guitar, bought it in 1983. I have grown to dislike where the vol pot is located on it as I constantly run my vol pot with my pinky as I play.
I plan to purchase more PRS guitars.
I go through different phases of acquiring gear and purging gear. Right now I've got 2 electrics, an acoustic and 2 basses. I really don't ever have more than that for very long.

From the Publisher
Reviews from the second edition:"This is a book you should consider if you are teaching the one-semester premed course. This text could be used in two ways: 1) as a text for a one-term course in the physics of the body (without calculus) for non-physics majors in premed or allied health programs, or 2) as a supplementary text for the introductory physics course, particularly for premed students."
--Russell Hobbie, University of Minnesota
"There is certainly a viable market (for this book), if not as a stand-alone physics text, as a collection of problems, examples, and discussions at the boundary between physics and biology/medicine. It is very well written; it is certainly accurate; and it is pretty complete."
--David Cinabro, Wayne State University

[snip] I'm not sure which one you should download. It's been a while since I worked with Festival. But as I recall, they have different voice libraries in case you want different voices (british, american, male, female, 8kbps quality, 16kbps quality, etc.) so the festvox* files are probabaly for that. In that case, it shouldn't matter which one you grab as long as you got one. I'm not sure what festlex is either, but I'm guessing they're different databases for translating text to speech (for example, "gh" is silent in "fight", so you need a database with the word "fight" that knows "gh" is silent.)

Home » Athletics NewsWomen's soccer rebounds with shutout winSeptember 10, 2012 By Randy Payton of University of Rio GrandeRio Grande Sports Information ROCHESTER, N.Y. - Taylor Ahrens scored the first goal of her collegiate career to give the University of Rio Grande a first half lead and fellow freshman Kasey Crow added an insurance marker in the second half, as the RedStorm blanked Daemen College, 2-0, Saturday afternoon, in the Redhawks Classic hosted by Roberts Wesleyan University. Rio Grande upped its record to 2-3 with the victory, rebounding from a shutout loss to the host school less than 24 hours earlier. Daemen also fell to 2-3 with a third straight loss, marking the first time its been under the .500 mark since a season-ending loss in 2009 left the Wildcats at 7-8-1. Ahrens, a midfielder from Ross, Ohio, found the back of the net off of a corner kick by senior Vanessa Montgomery (Chillicothe, OH) at the 27:47 mark of the first half. Crow, a forward from Chillicothe, made it 2-0 just over four minutes into the second period, scoring on a header from the left side, via an assist from senior Jessica Gall (Mount Vernon, OH). The RedStorm managed the victory despite being outshot, 20-9. Sophomore goalkeeper Allison Keeney (Cincinnati, OH) recorded nine saves en route to the shutout win. Daemen net-minder Kayla Hampton had four saves in a losing cause for the Wildcats. Rio will attempt to get to the .500 mark for the first time this season when it returns to action on Wednesday afternoon, traveling to Grayson, Ky. for a 4 p.m. kickoff with Kentucky Christian University.

Kim Jong Il Son's Cabinet Absence May Signal Succession Delay
April 7 (Bloomberg) -- North Korean leader Kim Jong Il's youngest son and heir-apparent wasn't mentioned in a list of new Cabinet members today, signaling that the dynastic transfer of power isn't likely to happen soon.
Kim Jong Un, thought to be in his late 20s, was given his first posts within the ruling Workers' Party in September, paving the way to become North Korea's next leader. His name didn't feature, though, in government appointments approved at a parliamentary meeting, according to the state-run Korean Central News Agency. The Supreme People's Assembly did agree on next year's budget and a new security minister.
"Not getting elected to a government post doesn't threaten Kim Jong Un's status as the next leader," said Kim Yong Hyun, a professor of North Korean studies at Dongguk University in Seoul. "It just means that Kim Jong Il is confident of his health conditions to remain leader and that he will take the time he needs to raise a successor."
Kim Jong Il plans to extend his family's 63 years of dynastic rule as economic woes deepen following a botched currency revaluation in late 2009 and amid ongoing United Nations sanctions for North Korea's nuclear weapons programs.
South Korean officials have said that Kim Jong Il, 69, appears to have recovered from a stroke in 2008.
Experts including Yang Moo Jin, a professor of the University of North Korean Studies, have said Kim Jong Un may be elected to the National Defense Commission, the nation's highest government body and chaired by his father.
The post of first vice chairman on the defense commission has been vacant since Jo Myong Rok died of heart disease in November. The position wasn't filled at today's meeting.
Commission Post
Kim Jong Un was made a vice chairman at the commission, a rank below first vice-chairman, on Feb. 10, South Korea's Chosun Ilbo newspaper reported Feb. 16. His appointment will be formally endorsed at the parliamentary meeting, the newspaper said then.
The commission has four vice chairmen, including Jang Song Thaek, Kim Jong Il's brother-in-law. Jang was appointed at the last parliamentary session in June in what analysts said was a move aimed at solidifying a hereditary succession by bestowing power to a member of the Kim family.
Kim Jong Un was elected to the second-highest military post in the party and made a four-star general in September when he was mentioned by state media for the first time.
Kim Kyong Hui, Kim Jong Il's sister and Jang's wife, was made a member of the party's Politburo also in September.
Leadership Threats
Kim Jong Il appears increasingly concerned about internal threats to his leadership, boosting security around his residences since pro-democracy uprisings erupted in the Middle East, Kwon Young Se, a lawmaker at South Korea's ruling Grand National Party, said in a March 16 interview in Seoul. Kwon cited a report by the National Intelligence Service to the National Assembly's Intelligence Committee that he chairs.
North Korea's economy shrank 0.9 percent in 2009, when UN sanctions banning arms trading and restricting financial transactions were toughened following the country's second nuclear test in May that year, according to the Bank of Korea in Seoul. North Korea doesn't release its own data.
Kim Jong Il was made the defense commission's first vice chairman in 1990, 16 years after he was named successor to his father and North Korea's founder, Kim Il Sung. Kim Jong Il became North Korea's leader after his father died in 1994.
