text: I'm relatively new to FreeBSD but have a lot of experience in other Unix systems such as Linux and OS X. I recently inherited an old desktop computer which has a multiboot system (3 Linux distros, Windows 7 and FreeBSD all booting through Grub) where FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE worked very well. For reasons I can't fully explain, the FreeBSD install became corrupted although I believe it had something to do with rebooting the computer with a powered up external drive connected. The external drive, unbeknownst to me, had a bootable partition on it which may have caused renaming of the FreeBSD partitions within the slice. In any event, booting to FreeBSD from Grub now leads to Code:Mounting from ufs:/dev/ad4s3a failed with error 19 and thereafter to a mountroot prompt. Typing '?' at the mountroot prompt provides no GEOM managed disk devices whatsoever. At this stage, I created a re-install CD of FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE and booted from it. However, the boot ended with Code:Mounting from cd9660:/dev/iso9660/FREEBSD_INSTALL failed with error 19 and then the mountroot prompt. Once again, typing a '?' at the prompt showed no GEOM managed disk devices. I got exactly the same behavior with the 502MB CD and the 2.1GB DVD created from versions of the FreeBSD 9.0 ISO. Next I burned the FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE disk1 ISO to a USB key. In contrast to the CD/DVD, the USB key booted fine. However, when I selected Live CD option on the Welcome page, checking in /dev showed none of the computer HDD partitions. When I later chose the Install option on the Welcome page and proceeded with the install to the partition editor, the only drive presented for partitioning was the USB key itself. Neither the HDD nor its partitions were available. Finally, I tried a CD of FreeSBIE 2.0.1 which booted to Code:Trying to mount root from cd9660:/dev/iso9660/FreeSBIE and then to the mountroot prompt. However, this time typing '?' provided a range of valid disk boot devices including all of the partitions on the HDD, some of which are in fact not bootable. This list also included all of the FreeBSD partitions on the FreeBSD slice. Interestingly, /dev/iso9660/FreeSBIE was not in this list. However, none of these devices proved bootable from FreeSBIE when the CD was booted in normal mode. But, in single user mode, I was able to boot from the mountroot prompt using ufs:/dev/ad4s3a which brought me to a #. Now I could appropriately mount /dev/ad4s3d, /dev/ad4s3e and /dev/ad4s3f and had access to, apparently, all of the stuff in my FreeBSD partition. Note that /etc/fstab on the HDD referred to the FreeBSD partitions as /dev/ada0s3x, rather than /dev/ad4s3x which name change may have been the cause of the corruption. I was able to use nano to modify /etc/fstab to the "new" device names without problem. In addition, through FreeSBIE, I was able to run fsck -y on all partitions (/usr seems to have been very unclean) and get clean filesystems for all. However, trying again to boot from the HDD install of FreeBSD failed for exactly the same reasons as before. Note also that I tried the CD, DVD and USB keys on a different but very similar desktop computer and all worked perfectly as expected, with in each case, all HDD partitions being available for FreeBSD install. Note, in addition, that the CD drive on my computer works fine with Linux install CDs. While I can accept that my FreeBSD has become unbootable, I am very puzzled as to how this corruption is affecting the performance of all of the re-install media that I tried. Unless, somebody has any insights as to what is happening here, I believe the next step is to completely wipe the FreeBSD partition on the HDD and try the install media again, hoping that this time the "cleaned" partition will be made available for re-install. Thanks for any comments.

Your posts hardly gather any response - because you've never given any inside, comments etc., nothing ! Whatever you've stated've been obvious facts nothing new to golf fans.
Even, Tim & Baldie, however biased their views - at least they speak their minds.
Please don't waste any space and time....if you can't contribute at all, don't bother.

The National Cancer Advisory Board (NCAB), within the last 4 years, has convened two broad-based panels to examine early and late translational research at NCI. The Clinical Trials Working Group (CTWG; http://integratedtrials.nci.nih.gov/ict/CTWG_report_June2005.pdf) reported its findings to the NCAB in 2005 and the Translational Research Working Group (TRWG; http://www.cancer.gov/aboutnci/trwg/finalreport.pdf) put forth its recommendations in 2007. The NCAB approved the findings of both groups, and important progress is being made in the implementation of these recommendations.
The CTWG focused on late translational studies, primarily phase III clinical trials, and the TRWG addressed early translational research, chiefly work done to move basic research discoveries into phase I and phase II clinical studies. The CTWG report recommended extensive changes to the NCI-supported clinical trials system that included establishing several committees that now play an important role in how NCI clinical trials are prioritized and initiated. This new infrastructure paved the way for the implementation of two of the TRWG recommendations.
Under the auspices of CTWG, NCI established the internal Clinical Trials Operating Committee (CTOC), which the TRWG recommended be expanded to include translational research. That change has occurred and the committee is now known as the Clinical and Translational Research Operations Committee, or CTROC. This committee is designed to coordinate clinical trials and translational programs across the institute and to make recommendations to improve cost-effectiveness and reduce duplication and overlap among NCI components. CTROC will also evaluate new Requests for Applications and Program Announcements in these research areas prior to review by the NCI Executive Committee.
The CTWG report recommended the formation of a Clinical Trials Advisory Committee (CTAC), an external oversight committee that oversees the implementation of CTWG initiatives, including the system to evaluate and measure the effects of the implementation. Following the recommendations of the TRWG, NCI has now expanded this committee to include oversight of translational research and the implementation of the TRWG recommendations. CTAC retains its acronym but now stands for the Clinical and Translational Advisory Committee.
The TRWG report, along with the CTWG changes, have expanded the role of the recently created Coordinating Center for Clinical Trials (CCCT) (http://ccct.nci.nih.gov/). The center now includes a Translational Research Support Office. CCCT is managing the implementation of all CTWG and TRWG initiatives.
Progress continues in other areas affected by the recommendations of both working groups. The CTWG called for the development of disease-specific scientific steering committees. To date, steering committees have been established in the following areas: gastrointestinal cancer; gynecologic cancer; genitourinary cancer; head and neck cancer; patient advocacy; and symptom management and health-related quality of life. The lung cancer steering committee is currently in development. These steering committees prioritize phase III concepts for therapeutic clinical trials and convene State-of-the-Science meetings to prioritize strategies for NCI-supported clinical trials.
Another major initiative recommended in the CTWG report was the development of a comprehensive database of NCI-supported clinical trials. The pilot phase of the project will begin in summer 2008. The development of this database is being spearheaded by the NCI Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Technology, in collaboration with DCTD, CCCT, as well as NCI's Division of Cancer Prevention, Office of Communications and Education, and the Cancer Centers Program.

Thinking With Data
Edited by Marsha C. Lovett, Priti Shah
Psychology Press – 2007 – 320 pages
The chapters in Thinking With Data are based on presentations given at the 33rd Carnegie Symposium on Cognition. The Symposium was motivated by the confluence of three emerging trends: (1) the increasing need for people to think effectively with data at work, at school, and in everyday life, (2) the expanding technologies available to support people as they think with data, and (3) the growing scientific interest in understanding how people think with data.
What is thinking with data? It is the set of cognitive processes used to identify, integrate, and communicate the information present in complex numerical, categorical, and graphical data. This book offers a multidisciplinary presentation of recent research on the topic. Contributors represent a variety of disciplines: cognitive and developmental psychology; math, science, and statistics education; and decision science. The methods applied in various chapters similarly reflect a scientific diversity, including qualitative and quantitative analysis, experimentation and classroom observation, computational modeling, and neuroimaging. Throughout the book, research results are presented in a way that connects with both learning theory and instructional application.
The book is organized in three sections:
Contents: Preface. Part I: Reasoning About Uncertainty and Variation. A. Masnick, D. Klahr, B. Morris, Separating Signal From Noise: Children's Understanding of Error and Variability in Experimental Outcomes. C. Schunn, L. Saner, S. Kirschenbaum, J.G. Trafton, E.B. Littleton, Complex Visual Data Analysis, Uncertainty, and Representation. S. Trickett, J.G. Trafton, L. Saner, C. Schunn, "I Don't Know What's Going on There": The Use of Spatial Transformations to Deal With and Resolve Uncertainty in Complex Visualizations. B. delMas, Y. Liu, Students' Conceptual Understanding of the Standard Deviation. J. Garfield, B. delMas, B. Chance, Using Students' Informal Notions of Variability to Develop an Understanding of Formal Measures of Variability. R. Lehrer, L. Schauble, Contrasting Emerging Conceptions of Distribution in Contexts of Error and Natural Variation. G. Leinhardt, J. Larreamendy-Joerns, Discussion of Part I: Variation in the Meaning and Learning of Variation. Part II: Statistical Reasoning and Data Analysis. K. Dunbar, J. Fugelsang, C. Stein, Do Naïve Theories Ever Go Away? Using Brain and Behavior to Understand Changes in Concepts. P. Thompson, Y. Liu, L. Saldanha, Intricacies of Statistical Inference and Teachers' Understandings of Them. K. McNeill, J. Krajcik, Middle School Students' Use of Appropriate and Inappropriate Evidence in Writing Scientific Explanations. C. Konold, Designing a Data Analysis Tool for Learners. M. Lovet, N. Chang, Data-Analysis Skills: What and How Are Students Learning? D.L. Schwartz, D. Sears, J. Chang, Reconsidering Prior Knowledge. K.

Sedlmeier, Statistical Reasoning: Valid Intuitions Put to Use. W.B. de Bruin, J. Downs, B. Fischhoff, Adolescents' Thinking About the Risks of Sexual Behaviors. M. Burrage, M. Epstein, P.

Gran Enciclopèdia Catalana
The Gran Enciclopèdia Catalana (in English: the Great Catalan Encyclopedia) is a Catalan-language encyclopedia, started in fascicles, and published in 1968 by Edicions 62. The soul of the work[clarification needed] was written by Max Cahner, and the first director was Jordi Carbonell i Ballester. From the second volume the work had its own publisher: Enciclopedia Catalana SA with Jordi Pujol, and the new director was Joan Carreras i Martí.
The encyclopedia collects all kinds of alphabetical entries about different subjects: history, geography, cultural studies, etc. It includes worldwide views as well as, when appropriate, Catalan viewpoints and information (meaning that the work is very thorough and often written with first hand information). It also contains a dictionary of common vocabulary, which was reviewed in the first edition of the work by Ramon Aramon i Serra.
GEC had a fixed team that wrote the content, and furthermore a broad set of partners, among which were the most prominent experts in each subject, which was involved in the preparation of the GEC with a great desire for service to the Catalan people.
Later editions have come out with several volumes and an appendix, as well as a digital edition. In 1991 it received the Cross of Saint George.
The Great Catalan Encyclopedia gained popularity and sold well, causing the encyclopedia to expand to include a broader series of historical, geographical, and lexical issues.

Adir International (dba Curacao) operates about a dozen Curacao department stores in downtown Los Angeles and Orange County, California, that cater to Hispanics. Stores sell consumer electronics, as well as appliances, furniture, books, music, and other items, which it will ship to Mexico or Central America. Curacao sells most of its merchandise on credit to some 500,000 customers who carry the Curacao credit card. The company also operates an online store and travel agency and offers Internet and long-distance calling services. It was founded in 1981 by a pair of Israeli brothers, including CEO Ron Azarkman, who also own the franchise for Pollo Campero, the Guatemalan fried chicken restaurant chain.
Geographic Reach
From its headquarters in Los Angeles, Curacao operates retail stores in the cities of Los Angeles, South Gate, Panorama City, Huntington Park, San Bernardino, Lynwood, Chino, Santa Ana, and Anaheim. It also operates stores in Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona.
Besides its retail operations, Curacao (formerly La Curacao) has several businesses that provide its client communities with supporting services. As part of its business, the company offers customers Internet access and local and long distance services (CuraTel), online content and online services (Pasito), money transfer services to Mexico and Central America (Curacao Financial), chicken restaurants (Pollo Campero), and travel services (Curacao Travel).
The department store operates an online shopping site in English and Spanish.
Curacao's business has grown along with the Hispanic communities in Southern California and Arizona. The company estimates that there are about 7 million Latinos living in the South California region alone that collectively have a buying power of $66 billion. To attract those dollars, Curacao has opened new stores and warehouses and expanded its service offerings in recent years. In late 2012 Curacao added a store in Tucson, Arizona. The company has additional plans to extend its reach into new Southern California cities and is eying the Nevada market.
Taking a page from its big-box store competition's playbook, Curacao is establishing private-label brands, which return higher profits and help build customer loyalty. The company has developed two TV lines named Pixel and Mega that compete with national chains on quality and price. Another private label is Best Home, for small appliances and furniture. Currently, private label brands account for about 15% of the retailer's sales.

His mother thought he was riding his bike, but he was in the backyard on the zipline. After looking for him, she found him hanging on the zipline. Medics responded to the scene and attempted to resuscitate roos but he was pronounced dead at the scene. Detectives said the zip line appeared to be commercially made and installed.

Abbey House Museum - Kirkstall, Leeds
The photo above shows one of the rooms in the Abbey House Museum, Kirkstall, Leeds this room is a recreation of a Victorian nursery of around 1880, I love the wheeled cow.
The photograph above is a view of the Abbey House Museum, Kirkstall, Leeds in Yorkshire.
Abbey House was built as a gatehouse to Kirkstall Abbey, Leeds built by Cistercian monks who started building Kirkstall Abbey in 1152. The monks were given the land by Henry de lacy, a descendent of Ilbert de lacy who was given land around Kirkstall by William I, best known today as William the conqueror.
The gatehouse is the oldest part of Abbey House and today houses the cafe. In 1539 King Henry VIII disolved the monasteries, the monks were forced out of the abbey and it fell into ruin. The last abbot, John Ripley, made the gatehouse, Abbey House, his home until his death in 1568. From then on the house became a residence to notable Leeds families. In 1925 the house was sold to Leeds corporation, becoming a museum in 1927.
Over the next few days the Leeds photo daily will explore more of the Abbey House Museum, Leeds and also Kirkstall Abbey, both of these are around 3 miles from Leeds city centre along the A65.

New gardening books offer techniques, taboos and inspiration
Folks who are itching to get their hands in the soil to start another year's crop of vegetables and flowers will want to look at these titles, from growing container gardens to turning a much larger piece of land into an edible or aromatic source of pleasure. And there are recipes, too!
"AMERICAN HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY ENCYCLOPEDIA OF GARDENING TECHNIQUES," edited by David J. Ellis, Fiona Gilsenan, Rita Pelczar and Graham Rice, Mitchell Beazley/Octopus Books, 29.99, 480 pages (nf)
I have a new knows-everything reference for gardening, thanks to this astonishingly useful guide to all things garden. It has beautiful — and comprehensive — illustrations, it's easy to understand, and I can't think of a gardening question it didn't tackle.
It's a complete guide to soil, plants, techniques and tools, with information to fit whatever type of garden you have. Containers? Raised beds? Traditional? No problem. It will even tell you how to grow and enjoy plants in the greenhouse.
The book has a complete section on propagation, so if you have a favorite tree or bush or flower, it explains how to make the most of it. The planting guide and pruning guide are both detailed and comprehensive. Best, it meets you at your skill level, so the beginning gardener can pick it up and get off to a great start or a skilled gardener can flip through and find new ways of doing things, reinforcement for good habits and more.
This is a very sturdy paperback with more than 2,000 illustrations and 200 color photographs. Reading it is almost as enjoyable as gardening itself.
"THE FOUR SEASON FARM GARDENER'S COOKBOOK," by Barbara Damrosch and Eliot Coleman, Workman Publishing, $22.95, 496 pages (nf)
This book is a seed-to-satisfying-meal treat, unusual in that it is a comprehensive organic gardening guide that then helps the gardener harvest the crop, clean it up and turn it into a sumptuous repast.
It's also a seasonal guide to gardening, covering everything from regular crops to winter gardening, how to help the soil, crop rotation and detailed instructions for various popular vegetables and herbs. It's all about food, and just looking at the pictures made my stomach growl. The photography is beautiful, the details easy to understand, the range exciting. For example, this book tells a novice gardener how to fool roots into thinking it's spring so that you can grow fresh greens in winter.
It also has a section on building a portable greenhouse, saving seeds, vacuuming up garden pests and a lot more. The book is organized in an orderly way that starts with soil and composting, moves you through how to plan and set up the garden, then discusses what you should grow and how to do it.
Ready to go into the kitchen with your bounty? Besides 120 recipes, the book is full of tips for saving time and money while capturing great taste. Best of all, the recipes are easy, but not necessarily ones you'd come up with on your own: Stuffed squash blossom fritters or shell beans with tomatoes and sage. Yum.

Each of the plants has a "why it's special" section, a simple description of how to plant and grow it, information about its care and problems, as well as a list of colors, peak season, its mature size and water needs.

All along, the borough mayor's race pit Mike Navarre vs the other candidates, but who would have guessed that Fred Sturman would have been the top of those five?
I guess I'm not really surprised by voters on the Kenai - just how many were snookered by Joe Miller after all?
The run-off will tell a lot about who we are here on the Kenai Peninsula as the two surviving candidates offer completely different visions for how government will work - or won't.
Fred is dedicated to cutting everything and that will fly until the consequences of doing so becomes a reality. Just what will be cut? What services will we do without? As soon as it is something that impacts someone, and every cut will do so, the political carnage will begin. Fred complains about high taxes, yet there is no place in the US where you will pay less taxes, especially when the PFD check gets factored in. So, now that the focus is down to two candidates, maybe Fred should explicitly let us all know what he will cut. What borough services will be eliminated? Who will get pay cuts? What roads won't be serviced?
It's only fair for Mike Navarre to present a clearer picture of what he will do as mayor as well. He took money from lobbyists for both projects, so what is his stance on the Pebble and Chuitna mines?
The prime question for voters is simply do we want the Kenai to progress in a way that promotes a better quality life or do we want to do without those things that serve and protect us and make living here not such a bad thing.
With just 20% of the eligible voters casting ballots this last time, the direction the borough takes may very well be made by the minority. Look at the fiasco of the Carey administration, I suspect that those errors will seem minor if Fred gets elected.

Ernie Miller has a marvelously sarcastic -- and marvelous because sarcastic -- response to the news yesterday that the FCC approved 13 new technologies, including TiVo, as compliant with the broadcast flag:
Oh, heavenly joy! Oh, fortunate day! Our wonderful technological masters, those geniuses of centralized planning, have deigned to bestow on the public the ability to move video files between 10 separate devices with the use of a registered dongle. What visionaries! What prophets, who can see what is appropriate use of technology and what is not! If only we had had the FCC's sage advice when Sony developed the Betamax. The Supreme Court, in its ignorance, allowed the technology to develop unhindered. What a mistake! Could they not see that there must be regulation to channel and guide the foolish technologists who don't understand how markets function? How dare they create without approval? We must only permit innovation that has been properly considered by government regulators, without which markets would not function efficiently.

We must only permit innovation that has been properly considered by government regulators, without which markets would not function efficiently.
Ah -- but why stop at digital television and radio? As the copyright professors suggest, tech mandates could be the new copyright. The FCC could institute a "broadcast flag" for every single device capable of making a digital copy.
As I wrote over at Deep Links, this is what the entertainment industries told us they wanted in 2002 when they backed the Hollings Bill. That legislation would have forced every new digital media technology, at its birth, to comply with some kind of "content protection" design mandate imposed by an inter-industry group and administered by the FCC.
Thankfully, the Hollings bill was defeated. But defeating the broadcast flag(s) will be harder -- especially when people are fooled into believing that TiVo scraping crumbs from the carpet is victory.

Open source GPL drivers and operating systems are in direct odds with the "robustness standards".
In other words.. FCC kills linux will be the next headline.
By the way... there was a june 21 news article which detailed the ruling that the case against the FCC regarding the flag was to move forward, yet i have yet to hear anything regarding this case since. What is the use of striking down a postponement of the litigation if it will still be delayed to the point where it may be too late to prevent "flag compliant" devices from hitting the market.

For the latest ABC show Renew / Cancel Index news click here.
Our Renew / Cancel Index predicts potential renewal or cancellation for scripted broadcast primetime shows by the end of the 2010-11 season in May, 2011. (includes results from January 3 - April 3, 2011):
Program | Status | Renew/ Cancel Index |
The Whole Truth | cancelled | |
My Generation | cancelled | |
Detroit 1-8-7 | 0.48 | |
No Ordinary Family | 0.62 | |
Off The Map | 0.71 | |
Brothers & Sisters | 0.82 | |
Better With You | 0.83 | |
Mr. Sunshine | 0.94 | |
Private Practice | renewed | 1.02 |
Cougar Town | renewed | 1.03 |
The Middle | renewed | 1.04 |
Body Of Proof | 1.06 | |
Castle | renewed | 1.08 |
Desperate Housewives | 1.33 | |
Grey's Anatomy | renewed | 1.69 |
Modern Family | renewed | 1.85 |
ABC's last rookie drama hope of the season, Body Of Proof premiered well with a 3.1 adults 18-49 rating, but fell to a 2.0 rating following Desperate Housewives on Sunday. Those two results are divergent enough and the comparison apples to oranges enough to make the handicapping difficult today. The next few weeks of ratings results will tell the tale, but for now the show's looking more likely to be renewed than cancelled.
Brothers & Sisters is still hanging on to the bottom of the "toss up" range between renewal and cancellation. ABC's new Mr. Sunshine still looks like a toss up for renewal. V is just outside of the "toss up" range.
Better With You is more likely to be cancelled than renewed. What? Why? It's average is much higher than its latest ratings, and its latest ratings are in the "likely to be cancelled" range.
Off The Map, Detroit 1-8-7 and No Ordinary Family are certain to be cancelled at the end of the season.
I'd expect the apocalypse before I'd expect Desperate Housewives to not be renewed. Lots of fans comments that ABC is scheduling DH to depress its ratings as some sort of bargaining tactic with the stars over their salaries. That's just so much nonsense.
What did the ABC Renew / Cancel Index look like for the Fall? Click here.
- - certain to be cancelled by May, 2011
- :cry:- more likely to be cancelled than renewed by May, 2011
- - toss up between renewal or cancellation by May, 2011
- - more likely to be renewed than cancelled by May, 2011
- - certain to be renewed by May, 2011
The Renew/Cancel Index is the ratio of a scripted show's new episode adults 18-49 ratings relative to the new episode ratings of the other scripted shows on its own network. It's calculated by dividing a show's new episode Live+Same Day adults 18-49 average rating by the Live+Same Day new episode average of all the new scripted show episodes on the show's own network. The network's average ratings in the calculation are not time weighted (ex. hour long shows are not weighted twice what 30 minute shows are).
(F) -Fridays: Shows airing on Fridays were renewed with significantly lower than average Indexes.
How would the Renew / Cancel Index Have Done Predicting Last Season's Scripted Show Fates? While the methods used have changed slightly from past seasons check out how the Renew / Cancel Index would have predicted renewals and cancellations from the 2009-10 broadcast television season.

Warning to all Rescuers in South and North Carolina Area!
I know the original writer said this could have been a laboratory buyer but I think its much more likely the man was trying to buy bait dogs for fighting or for even more nefarious uses. If any Dogsters encounter this man, please bark in so we can keep track of his movements as much as possible.
I would also recommend anyone in the area to be even more alert for signs of dog fighting. The man was probably buying to resell. That suggests to me he already has a market.
Thanks to Dolly for posting this in the Pet-o-Nomics Group!
PLEASE CROSS-POST FAR AND WIDEALERT!! Laboratory Buyer possibly in Bluffton, SC, area
Crossposting from Lowcountry,SC Animal Rescue:
Saturday at the Pet Adoption Fair in Bluffton, SC a man tried to buy all of our animals. He flashed a roll of cash and said he would take them all. When I asked him which animal did he want he backed off and said he would take any of them. I told him "No" and asked him to leave which he did when he saw me open my cellphone to dial police.He was Hispanic, early 30's, dressed in teeshirt and jeans, good command of English. He left in a white panel truck with North Carolina plates.

Any shot? Then the world can see these two misfigured hunchbacks for the gruesome creatures they really are.

You have súch a unique D&B style. I love it!
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
ParagonX9 Returns!
I'm not sure where to start here.
To begin, its another Epic addition to the Chaoz series. Furthermore, its 4 minutes, and that a pretty long song for the way you do things.
I feel like something was cliched here with the layout of the song and the synths, but its still, just, got it.
You haven't been around for a while, it seems. I believe one of your songs made it into Castle Crashers... Anywho, i have a number of your songs, and a remix (i know most of my 236 or so songs off the top of my head).
Anywho. Keep up the awesome music.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
What a kick Ass Song
Every song you make is good. This girl has talent beyond anyone elses. Please make more.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Fun music here. Definitely enjoyed the musicianship of this piece. Sounds like every video game piece I've heard minus the percussion, but that's questionable too. Awesome job.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
more pure and epic awesomeness yet again from ParagonX9!! =D
keep it up!! can't wait for more =]

By the fifth season, this premise is growing a little bit threadbare (particularly after some of the red herrings of the past two seasons), yet the show continues to hold abundant pleasures. The cast--Josh Radnor, Cobie Smulders, Alyson Hannigan, Jason Segel, and Neil Patrick Harris--have an effortless lock on their characters, allowing them to pull off some perilously goofy bits that, in less confident hands, could have foundered (a musical homage to wearing suits, for example). The writing is crisp and driven; this half-hour sitcom crams in more plot turns than your average hour-long drama. The fifth season is not good to start with--the humor is much, much stronger if you've grown to love these characters over the previous four seasons--but for everyone who's been following Ted, Robin, Marshall, Lily, and Barney, it's essential viewing. Some surprising moments of melancholy are completely earned and stand out from the typical sitcom overreaching for "significance"; these moments are successfully rooted in the characters, who become more real every season… yes, even Barney. --Bret Fetzer

Information coming soon.
Online Webinar - 2:00 p.m., CST, 1 hour duration.
The Gulf of Mexico (GOM) basin is one of the richest hydrocarbon basins of the world, with estimated hydrocarbon endowment exceeding 140 BBOE. The foundation of such a rich endowment is the unique confluence of sedimentary processes, ranging from a continental-scale drainage system network, robust depositional systems, unusual extrabasinal perturbations, and long-lived salt tectonics. This combination of factors has allowed the GOM to continue to "reinvent itself", generating new exploration plays both onshore and offshore, suprasalt to subsalt, fluvial to deep-water, conventional and unconventional reservoirs. The surprising emergence of several new exploration plays and new ideas on the basin history demonstrates that we have much more to learn and harvest from this natural laboratory of sedimentary processes.
New ideas are leading to a reevaluation of the framework history, including how the Chixculub impact event at the end of the Cretaceous altered the deep Gulf of Mexico seascape and set up subsequent deep-water deposition. New models have been formulated for the timing and distribution of salt deposition and sea floor spreading.
Our understanding of the interaction of sediment and salt since the Mesozoic continues to evolve. The GOM has also provided dramatic improvements in the Neogene chronostratigraphy resulting from interpretation of new biostratigraphic data from deepwater wells.
Wells drilled in the deep subsalt province have altered our view of the Mesozoic source to sink depositional pathways, leading us to question older North American paleogeographic maps. A recent reported hydrocarbon discovery at El Perdido, located in the Mexican deep-water, has increased the Paleogene (Wilcox) play extent to the south.
Onshore, exploitation of Type II source rocks as shale gas plays in the Jurassic Haynesville and Cretaceous Eagle Ford have generated significant drilling activity and this in turn has stimulated a reevaluation of interpreted Mesozoic source rock distributions, including offshore areas of the Gulf of Mexico. Our perspective on the eastern Gulf of Mexico potential is likely to change as well, given new and ongoing deep crustal imaging work in this area.
Each e-symposium consists of one-hour live e-symposium, along with material for one full day of independent study. The live portion will be followed by a full day of independent study (not a live event). The one-hour live e-symposium can be accessed from any computer anywhere in the world using a high-speed internet connection. After the event is over, you will receive via email information about accessing the asynchronous segment (not live) which consists of a recording of the event, your independent study materials, to be accessed and studied at any time. You will be able to email responses to the readings, along with your study question answers for CEU credit (if you sign up for the extended package).

While snow levels from winter indicate that this summer's local water supply should be better than last year, that could still change, according to leaders with the Tuolumne Utilities District. On Tuesday, TUD engineers gave an update to the district Board of Directors on the district's supply. Though the winter saw below-average precipitation, district engineer Glen Nunnelley said the snow is melting quickly as we head into a possible warm spell. When coupled with weather forecasts predicting above-average temperatures in the coming weeks and months, he said there are some concerns about the quicker runoff. "We're going to watch how fast this melts off," he said. The rate of snowmelt is especially crucial in dry years, as the water supply for TUD depends heavily on when water stops spilling over the dam at Pinecrest. Called the "end of spill," the point when the reservoir is full but not overflowing. A relatively new state regulation setting the elevation of the lake level at 5,608 feet above sea level through Labor Day means local water officials use the "end of spill" date to gauge how tight the summer supply will be. Nunnelley said this year's predicted end of spill will likely be "an improvement over last year" — one of the earliest on record. Last year's dry winter led to district-wide water conservation even after the district and Pacific Gas and Electric Co. took measures to control waste. "We can get through these conditions, but they're tight," he said. TUD, the county's largest water agency, gets most of its water from Pinecrest and Lyons reservoirs through a contract with PG&E, which operates hydroelectric dams on the South Fork Stanislaus River. The district also draws water from Phoenix Lake Reservoir. Most of the water comes from snowmelt off the Central Sierra Nevada mountains. The most recent snowpack survey, taken at the beginning of the month by the Department of Water Resources, found the water content was 58 percent of average for this time of year. The summertime level of Pinecrest is a bone of contention. The California Water Resources Control Board set a minimum level through the end of the summer for recreational purposes. Recreation and environmental advocates say TUD needs to fix leaks and water loss issues in its own system, which includes 19th century open canals known as ditches, before drawing down the lake. But TUD says the district and PG&E have historically had more flexibility with the lake level in dry years, and say the restriction is unwieldy and will negatively impact customers in the long run. The state water board is still considering a final decision on the Pinecrest lake level. |

I was expecting crowds since I went on the Sat/Sun before MLK day. Wow, were the crowds big. I don't know how anyone can tour these parks without getting the perks, i.e. early admission and Express Pass. I did not stay onsite but did secure early park admission by booking my hotel through Universal. I did not get the Express Pass. My advice to anyone going is to try to save enough to stay on the onsite hotels. That gives you early admission to Harry Potter. The crowds build up incredibly fast there. Also you get the unlimited front of the line Express Pass. I witnessed these people with this pass move right to the front. Not having it I felt like a second class citizen. I really feel in order to tour these parks efficiently you NEED to have these perks. At least when the parks are busy. I went back later in the week and it was better. especially when i came back during the evening. I stayed until closing and had no problems. i loved lingering in Three Broomsticks having a beer and late dinner with the family just loking around and listening to the Harry Potter music and recordings of a busy kitchen like in the movie and looking up into the rafters and seeing shadows of various characters moving around. it was neat. On the Universal side I noticed everyone heads to the first attraction they see.ike the new Minion show. So the line gets big there quickly but the rest of the Unversal side slowly builds. Either be the first to be at the Minions or save it for later and go towards the back attractions and work your way back. If I go again I'm staying onsite. To me it seems the January crowds seem to be much bigger.
Thanks for sharing. My family and i went on Sunday, Jan 20th the day before MLK. You're right is was very busy. We knew it would be busy when we decided to go but it was a little "extra" crazy. We were only able to do 4 rides total as a group of 3 (both parks) and my daughter did Jurassic River Ride by her self. We have power pass' and they will expire Feb. 11th. so my daughter and i plan to go back this Sunday and try to do everything we missed on the 20th. It's suppose to be slow so I think we'll be able to really enjoy ourselves. These are the rides we were able to do and we got there at 9:15am(parks opened at 9am) Hulk Spiderman The Mummy The Simpson Jurassic river ride (daughter only)

With Default just two weeks away, US Debt talks collapse
I hope the Republicans arent Bluffing...if you ask me, they should keep their line and force the President into Austerity WITHOUT tax rises. If I was them I WOULD force it, just like he forced the health reform...if it brings down his Presidency when the US defaults because he wont Listen to all parties as he promised he would when he came to power...then so be it. After all...if the Democrats want to stop an Austerity Budgit...its time for the Republicans to FORCE them to ballence their books by making America Default. That will teach them that they cant just live off credit, borrow, and expect the public to pay more taxes to pay for it. It would also stop Barack Obama being re-ellected I reckon. I hope John Boehner has the strength not to fold at the last moment.
Republican House Speaker John Boehner quits debt talks Republican House Speaker John Boehner has walked away from crunch debt ceiling talks at the White House with US President Barack Obama. Mr Obama said Mr Boehner had rejected an "extraordinarily fair deal" that would have included $650bn (£400bn) of cuts to entitlement programmes. The president said he had been willing to take "a lot of heat" from his party. Mr Boehner told a news conference afterwards that Mr Obama had "moved the goal posts" by demanding a tax hike. President Obama said he wanted a meeting with congressional leaders, including Mr Boehner, at the White House at 1100 (1500 GMT) on Saturday. 'Left at the altar' The negotiations are aimed at avoiding what analysts say would be an economically catastrophic US debt default on 2 August. "It is hard to understand why Speaker Boehner would walk away from this kind of deal," President Obama said at a news conference on Friday evening. As well as cutting $650bn from Medicare, Medicaid and other entitlements, the president said he was offering to slash $1tr in discretionary spending, while seeking $1.2tr in revenues, which could have been achieved by raising income tax rates. In a rebuttal news conference later on Friday evening, Mr Boehner said they had been close to a deal until Mr Obama had demanded $400bn in tax increases on top of about $800bn in revenues that would have been reaped through a comprehensive rewrite of the tax code. "Dealing with the White House is like dealing with a bowl of Jell-O," Mr Boehner said. He told reporters he did not think his relationship with Mr Obama had been "irreparably damaged", and that he would attend Saturday's meeting. White House correspondents said Mr Obama looked visibly angry as he told reporters he, too, thought a deal had been close until Mr Boehner did not return a phone call made by the president earlier on Friday. "I've been left at the altar now a couple of times," Mr Obama said of the talks with Mr Boehner. For the first time, Mr Obama publicly countenanced the possibility of the US not meeting its financial obligations. "If we default, then we're going to have to make adjustments," he said. Moments later, the president added he remained confident the $14.3tn limit on US borrowing would be raised by the 2 August deadline. Mr Obama also said he was "fed up" with political posturing. 'We couldn't connect' In a letter to the Republican rank and file, Mr Boehner said: "A deal was never reached, and was never really close. He wrote: "I have decided to end discussions with the White House and begin conversations with the leaders of the Senate in an effort to find a path forward." With the clock ticking down toward a national default after weeks of deadlocked negotiations, former Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, a Republican, told reporters on Friday that inaction would result in dire consequences. "Failing to raise the debt ceiling would do irreparable harm to our credit standing, would undermine our ability to lead on global economic issues and would damage our economy," he said. Meanwhile, the Democratic-led US Senate rejected a "cut, cap and balance" bill passed by the Republican-led House, which would have severely cut public spending and forced the government to balance its budget. Republicans have been unwilling to consider raising new taxes to counter the growing budget deficits. The Democrats have been opposed to cutting popular healthcare and welfare programmes for pensioners and the poor |

These days, there are food shows on unusual channels like Ovation (known for performing arts programming), Sundance Channel (independent film), Planet Green (environmental issues) and SyFy (space aliens and giant piranhas). Can a cooking show on ESPN or C-SPAN be too far behind?
Recipe included with this story: Ratatouille.
There's such demand for food television that last year the Food Network launched the Cooking Channel, where you can find new programs as well as repeats of long-gone series that are worth revisiting, like "Julia Child & Company," "Molto Mario" and "Melting Pot," which features Padma Lakshmi cooking mostly vegetarian fare a few years before "Top Chef" made her a star.
Closer to home, Oregon Public Broadcasting has loaded its secondary channel OPB Plus with plenty of terrific food shows. And it's here that you'll find "Avec Eric," the Emmy Award-winning show from Eric Ripert, the chef at New York City's famed Le Bernardin, considered by many to be one of the greatest chefs in the world today. Ripert is known for cooking seafood, but almost a third of the dishes he cooks on the show are vegetarian or vegan because he puts extra emphasis on the farmers who grow the produce that's used in his restaurants.You learn plenty of things watching a chef of Ripert's caliber, no matter what he's cooking. But when he tackles vegetarian or vegan dishes (by coincidence, I suspect, and not by design), the results are knockouts, like a salad built on a bed of cauliflower "couscous" topped with blanched vegetables and a vinaigrette made from argan oil (from kernels of the argan tree), or puff pastry topped with caramelized onions and olives.
Like any respectable French chef, Ripert has ratatouille in his repertoire. The Provençal vegetable stew is a rustic summertime staple as well as a great budget stretcher since the only ingredient that's costly is the high-quality extra-virgin olive oil needed to sauté the dish's onions, garlic, zucchini and eggplant. While some ratatouille recipes ask for fussy, mandoline-thin slices, Ripert preps his vegetables in larger chunks, making this an easy weeknight supper that can be rounded out with crusty bread, or served alongside polenta or plain white rice.
When Ripert makes the dish at home, he might top it with baked eggs and sprinkles of parmesan cheese. But with summertime flavors starting to peak right now, it's easy to keep the dish vegan without losing anything.While I love watching cooking shows and figuring out how I can veganize chef recipes, I'd love to see one of the food-focused channels launch an all-vegan series -- surely one of these big soy milk makers would be happy to be a sponsor. In the meantime, I'll keep watching Ripert's show and cooking his vegetable fare -- and looking for ways to turn his meaty dishes into plant-based creations.
"Avec Eric" airs at 5 p.m. Wednesdays on Comcast channel 310, and full episodes from the first two seasons can be viewed at aveceric.com.

[Support2000/Buttons2000/ssi-buttonbar.htm] | Procedures Church annual membership fee $175.00 This covers the use of all videos. The only additional expense to you is return shipping charges. The reason for this very nominal membership fee is to insure the continued expansion of the library and its services. CEP will be able to purchase new tapes. It also allows for the purchase of duplicate sets of the more popular series. Finally, it will help with damage, loss and replacement costs that insurance does not cover. We strongly recommend one contact person from each church for handling all ordering and all return shipping. This reduces "missing tape" complications as this contact person will keep all shipping stubs together. Be sure to write the title of the video you are returning on your shipping receipt (mail or UPS)! You may use as many videos as you need at any time as long as they are available. We want the tapes to be used and not to sit on anyones shelf! If you wish to PREVIEW a video or series, you may order on a PREVIEW basis. You have one week from the date you receive it to preview the video or entire series. Any time you are interested in scheduling a video or series, either call, fax, or write the librarian at the CEP office with video titles as listed in the catalog and SPECIFIC dates you wish to use them. Please give at least two weeks notice if at all possible! Last minute requests greatly reduce the probability of availability and cause an excess of unnecessary work for the librarian. Unless there is a conflict of schedules, the requested tape or series will be shipped ten days before your scheduled showing date. ("2nd-Day" shipping requests require that we bill the library member $10.00 for the shipping charges. "Next-Day" shipping requests require that we bill the library member $20.00 for the shipping charges. Saturday deliveries $30.00) Confirm your U.P.S. shipping address when you order. Because of increased shipping rates, we prefer that you provide a commercial shipping address rather than a residential address. To avoid delays and loss it should be an address where someone will be to accept delivery. Report damaged tapes immediately! Do not attempt to repair them. If you have any difficulty, call the video librarian and return the video with a note attached explaining the problem. All churches pay return shipping charges and insure return of tapes for $50.00 per tape. KEEP YOUR RETURN SHIPPING RECEIPT and write the video title(s) on it for insurance claim if needed! If you do not keep your receipt, you are responsible for replacement of the video(s) if necessary. We prefer that you ship UPS. (Mail is acceptable as long as you are aware of the risk and are willing to take it!) Use the return mailing label provided with each shipment. When you receive your order, check each packing slip carefully to be sure you have received all items listed and to verify that the library schedule corresponds with your intended schedule. (Packing slip is used as your mailing label.) Single tapes must be returned on the day after their scheduled showing. Tape series must be returned on the day after the final scheduled showing. Unless other arrangements are made, the librarian will assume that you will be using one session per week. Notify the librarian of any change in schedule! She may have scheduled another church for use after you! Be sure to rewind all videos before returning. OVERDUE FEES of $10.00 will be assessed 15 days after your final scheduled return ship date (see your packing slip). To avoid being billed for these fees, simply call the librarian BEFORE the final scheduled showing to inform her of your new intended schedule and to be sure it does not conflict with any other reservations. Copyright laws to be honored regarding use of videos and supplemental materials. (Many, but not all, of the guides are reproducible. The videos are NOT reproducible.) Leader Guides, Discussion Guides, Study Guides, and any other supplemental materials (including xerox copies) are LIBRARY PROPERTY and must remain with the videos. If you are using an extended series, return the materials with the final tape shipment. |
