After installing MySQL on Unix, you must initialize the grant tables, start the server, and make sure that the server works satisfactorily. You may also wish to arrange for the server to be started and stopped automatically when your system starts and stops. You should also assign passwords to the accounts in the grant tables.
On Unix, the grant tables are set up by the mysql_install_db program. For some installation methods, this program is run for you automatically if an existing database cannot be found.
If you install MySQL on Linux using RPM distributions, the server RPM runs mysql_install_db.
If you install MySQL on Mac OS X using a DMG distribution, the installer runs mysql_install_db.
For other platforms and installation types, including generic binary and source installs, you will need to run mysql_install_db yourself.
The following procedure describes how to initialize the grant tables (if that has not previously been done) and start the server. It also suggests some commands that you can use to test whether the server is accessible and working properly. For information about starting and stopping the server automatically, see Section 126.96.36.199, "Starting and Stopping MySQL Automatically".
After you complete the procedure and have the server running, you should assign passwords to the accounts created by mysql_install_db and perhaps tighten access to test databases. For instructions, see Section 2.10.3, "Securing the Initial MySQL Accounts".
In the examples shown here, the server runs under the user ID of
mysql login account. This assumes that such
an account exists. Either create the account if it does not exist,
or substitute the name of a different existing login account that
you plan to use for running the server.
Change location into the top-level directory of your MySQL
installation, represented here by
BASEDIR is the installation
directory for your MySQL instance. It is likely to be
something like
/usr/local/mysql or
/usr/local. The following steps assume
that you have changed location to this directory.
You will find several files and subdirectories in the
BASEDIR directory. The most
important for installation purposes are the
bin and
bin directory contains client
programs and the server. You should add the full path name
of this directory to your
environment variable so that your shell finds the MySQL
programs properly. See
Section 2.13, "Environment Variables".
For some distribution types, mysqld is
in the
libexec directory.
scripts directory contains the
mysql_install_db script used to
initialize the
mysql database
containing the grant tables that store the server access
For some distribution types,
mysql_install_db is in the
bin directory.
If necessary, ensure that the distribution contents are
accessible to
mysql. If you unpacked the
distribution as
mysql, no further action is
required. If you unpacked the distribution as
root, its contents will be owned by
root. Change its ownership to
mysql by executing the following commands
root in the installation directory:
chown -R mysql .shell>
chgrp -R mysql .
The first command changes the owner attribute of the files to
mysql user. The second changes the
group attribute to the
mysql group.
If necessary, run the mysql_install_db program to set up the initial MySQL grant tables containing the privileges that determine how users are permitted to connect to the server. You will need to do this if you used a distribution type for which the installation procedure does not run the program for you.
Typically, mysql_install_db needs to be run only the first time you install MySQL, so you can skip this step if you are upgrading an existing installation, However, mysql_install_db does not overwrite any existing privilege tables, so it should be safe to run in any circumstances.
The exact location of mysql_install_db will
depends on the layout for your given installation. To
initialize the grant tables, use one of the following
commands, depending on whether
mysql_install_db is located in the
bin or
bin/mysql_install_db --user=mysqlshell>
scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql
It might be necessary to specify other options such as
--basedir or
--datadir if
mysql_install_db does not identify the
correct locations for the installation directory or data
directory. For example:
bin/mysql_install_db --user=mysql \
--basedir=/opt/mysql/mysql \
The mysql_install_db script creates the
server's data directory with
mysql as the
owner. Under the data directory, it creates directories for
mysql database that holds the grant
tables and the
test database that you can
use to test MySQL. The script also creates privilege table
entries for
root and anonymous-user
accounts. The accounts have no passwords initially.
Section 2.10.3, "Securing the Initial MySQL Accounts", describes the initial
privileges. Briefly, these privileges permit the MySQL
root user to do anything, and permit
anybody to create or use databases with a name of
test or starting with
It is important to make sure that the database directories and
files are owned by the
mysql login account
so that the server has read and write access to them when you
run it later. To ensure this, the
--user option should
be used as shown if you run
mysql_install_db as
root. Otherwise, you should execute the
script while logged in as
mysql, in which
case you can omit the
--user option from
the command.
mysql_install_db creates several tables in
mysql database, including
func, and
others. See Section 5.5, "The MySQL Access Privilege System", for a complete
listing and description of these tables.
If you do not want to have the
database, you can remove it after starting the server, using
the instructions in Section 2.10.3, "Securing the Initial MySQL Accounts".
If you have trouble with mysql_install_db at this point, see Section 188.8.131.52, "Problems Running mysql_install_db".
For MySQL versions older than 3.22.10, mysql_install_db left the server running after creating the grant tables. This is no longer true; you need to restart the server after performing the remaining steps in this procedure.
Most of the MySQL installation can be owned by
root if you like. The exception is that the
data directory must be owned by
mysql. To
accomplish this, run the following commands as
root in the installation directory. For
some distribution types, the data directory might be named
var rather than
data; adjust the second command
chown -R root .shell>
chown -R mysql data
If the plugin directory (the directory named by the
plugin_dir system variable)
is writable by the server, it may be possible for a user to
write executable code to a file in the directory using
DUMPFILE. This can be prevented by making
plugin_dir read only to the
server or by setting
--secure-file-priv to a
directory where
SELECT writes
can be made safely.
If you installed MySQL using a source distribution, you may
want to optionally copy one of the provided configuration
files from the
support-files directory
into your
/etc directory. There are
different sample configuration files for different use cases,
server types, and CPU and RAM configurations. If you want to
use one of these standard files, you should copy it to
/etc/my.cnf, or
/etc/mysql/my.cnf and edit and check the
configuration before starting your MySQL server for the first
If you do not copy one of the standard configuration files, the MySQL server will be started with the default settings.
If you want MySQL to start automatically when you boot your
machine, you can copy
support-files/mysql.server to the
location where your system has its startup files. More
information can be found in the
mysql.server script itself, and in
Section 184.108.40.206, "Starting and Stopping MySQL Automatically".
Start the MySQL server:
bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &
For versions of MySQL older than 4.0, substitute bin/safe_mysqld for bin/mysqld_safe.
It is important that the MySQL server be run using an
unprivileged (non-
root) login account. To
ensure this, the
--user option should be used
as shown if you run mysqld_safe as
root. Otherwise, you should execute the
script while logged in as
mysql, in which
case you can omit the
--user option from the
Further instructions for running MySQL as an unprivileged user are given in Section 5.4.6, "How to Run MySQL as a Normal User".
If the command fails immediately and prints
ended, you can find some information in the
file in the data directory.
If you neglected to create the grant tables by running mysql_install_db before proceeding to this step, the following message appears in the error log file when you start the server:
mysqld: Can't find file: 'host.frm'
This error also occurs if you run
mysql_install_db as
without the
option. Remove the
data directory and run
mysql_install_db with the
--user option as
described previously.
If you have other problems starting the server, see Section 22.214.171.124, "Starting and Troubleshooting the MySQL Server". For more information about mysqld_safe, see Section 4.3.2, "mysqld_safe — MySQL Server Startup Script".
Use mysqladmin to verify that the server is running. The following commands provide simple tests to check whether the server is up and responding to connections:
bin/mysqladmin versionshell>
bin/mysqladmin variables
The output from mysqladmin version varies slightly depending on your platform and version of MySQL, but should be similar to that shown here:
bin/mysqladmin version
mysqladmin Ver 14.7 Distrib 4.1.19, for linux on i586
Server version 4.1.19-max
Protocol version 10
Connection Localhost via Unix socket

Threads: 1 Questions: 163 Slow queries: 0
Opens: 11 Flush tables:1 Open tables: 0 Queries per second avg: 0.007
Threads: 1 Questions: 9 Slow queries: 0
To see what else you can do with
mysqladmin, invoke it with the
--help option.
Verify that you can shut down the server:
bin/mysqladmin -u root shutdown
Verify that you can start the server again. Do this by using mysqld_safe or by invoking mysqld directly. For example:
bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql --log &
If mysqld_safe fails, see Section 220.127.116.11, "Starting and Troubleshooting the MySQL Server".
Run some simple tests to verify that you can retrieve information from the server. The output should be similar to what is shown here:
bin/mysqlshow+-----------+ | Databases | +-----------+ | mysql | | test | +-----------+ shell>
bin/mysqlshow mysqlDatabase: mysql +--------------+ | Tables | +--------------+ | columns_priv | | db | | func | | host | | tables_priv | | user | +--------------+ shell>
bin/mysql -e "SELECT Host,Db,User FROM db" mysql+------+--------+------+ | host | db | user | +------+--------+------+ | % | test | | | % | test_% | | +------+--------+------+
There is a benchmark suite in the
sql-bench directory (under the MySQL
installation directory) that you can use to compare how MySQL
performs on different platforms. The benchmark suite is
written in Perl. It requires the Perl DBI module that provides
a database-independent interface to the various databases, and
some other additional Perl modules:
DBI DBD::mysql Data::Dumper Data::ShowTable
These modules can be obtained from CPAN (http://www.cpan.org/). See also Section 2.14.1, "Installing Perl on Unix".
sql-bench/Results directory contains
the results from many runs against different databases and
platforms. To run all tests, execute these commands:
cd sql-benchshell>
perl run-all-tests
If you do not have the
directory, you probably installed MySQL using RPM files other
than the source RPM. (The source RPM includes the
sql-bench benchmark directory.) In this
case, you must first install the benchmark suite before you
can use it. Beginning with MySQL 3.22, there are separate
benchmark RPM files named
that contain benchmark code and data.
If you have a source distribution, there are also tests in its
tests subdirectory that you can run. For
example, to run
execute this command from the top-level directory of your
source distribution:
mysql -vvf test < ./tests/auto_increment.tst
The expected result of the test can be found in the
./tests/auto_increment.res file.
At this point, you should have the server running. However, none of the initial MySQL accounts have a password, and the server permits permissive access to test databases. To tighten security, follow the instructions in Section 2.10.3, "Securing the Initial MySQL Accounts".
As of MySQL 4.1.3, the installation procedure creates time zone
tables in the
mysql database but does not
populate them. To do so, use the instructions in
Section 9.7, "MySQL Server Time Zone Support".
You can set up new accounts using the
bin/mysql_setpermission script if you install
DBI and
DBD::mysql Perl
modules. See Section 4.6.15, "mysql_setpermission — Interactively Set Permissions in Grant
Tables". For Perl
module installation instructions, see
Section 2.14, "Perl Installation Notes".
If you would like to use mysqlaccess and have
the MySQL distribution in some nonstandard location, you must
change the location where mysqlaccess expects
to find the mysql client. Edit the
bin/mysqlaccess script at approximately line
18. Search for a line that looks like this:
$MYSQL = '/usr/local/bin/mysql'; # path to mysql executable
Change the path to reflect the location where
mysql actually is stored on your system. If you
do not do this, a
Broken pipe error will occur
when you run mysqlaccess.
On Windows, you can also perform the process described in this section using the Configuration Wizard (see Section 22.214.171.124, "The Security Options Dialog"). On other platforms, the MySQL distribution includes mysql_secure_installation, a command-line utility that automates much of the process of securing a MySQL installation.

TEMPE, Ariz. The Padres left Tempe Diablo Stadium on Sunday, one stubbed appendage and some worried faces in tow.
After just an inning, All-Star third baseman Chase Headley exited the game against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim with a jammed left thumb. The Padres were awaiting X-ray results late Sunday afternoon.
Padres manager Bud Black said Headley is not expected to play in today's game in Peoria against the Chicago Cubs.
"I think we're probably gonna have some studies — some X-rays and maybe some other scans — done," Black said. "It's safe to say that he won't be in there (today)."
In the top of the first, Headley jammed his thumb sliding into second as he attempted to break up a double play.
"He sorta got stuck and got twisted around," Black said. "His thumb ended up hitting the bag and his thumb was in a bad spot."
Asked about his level of concern regarding Headley's injury, Black said, "I'm always concerned about our players, even when they're healthy. But this is our important player for us, and we're hoping for the best."
Headley left Sunday's game after singling in his only at-bat. He is hitting .448 with no home runs and three RBIs in 29 at-bats this spring.
Jeudy Valdez replaced Headley in the lineup and went 0-for-4.
In 2011, Headley missed 41 games near the end of the season with a fractured left little finger.
If Headley were to miss a significant amount of time, Logan Forsythe is the leading candidate to fill in at third base. Problem is, Forsythe has been sidelined since March 8 with plantar fasciitis, though he has resumed on-field activities in camp.
Jedd Gyorko is another option. With Headley's Gold Glove-winning skills at third, Gyorko, who had been considered one of the game's top third base prospects, was expected to make the Opening Day roster as a second baseman.
Garcia struggles
Freddy Garcia's bid for a spot in the rotation suffered a few hits Sunday.
After enjoying his best outing of the spring in his previous start, the veteran right-hander struggled against the Angels, allowing six earned runs in a spring-high five innings. He gave up six hits, including a two-run homer by Vernon Wells.
"I think he got into trouble when he got some balls up in the strike zone," Black said after the Padres' 7-4 loss. "The ball up to Wells was an off-speed pitch up."
Garcia has struggled with his fastball location this spring, although Black said he saw "good secondary pitches" from the 36-year-old, who could contend for a long reliever position if he doesn't make the Opening Day roster as a starter.
"I know it didn't look good, but at least I threw every pitch I wanted to throw," said Garcia, who had been perfect through the game's first two innings. "I don't know when they are gonna make the decision, but I'm doing my work and we'll see what happens."
Garcia's ERA had dropped more than four points in last week's four-inning, one-run performance against San Francisco. Sunday, it climbed from 9.28 to 9.77.

Cable Ties
Cable Ties are as essential to any tool bag as a Phillips head screw driver. They are versatile, easy to use and have a wide variety of applications for both the contractor and home user. Releasable cable ties are great to use as a temporary measure to secure equipment. And of course there are cable ties which are made for more permanent applications. Due to the low profile and high tensile strength of a cable tie they can easily and safely be used in bundling applications. Cable ties are also known as zip ties or wire ties; they are available in a variety of sizes and materials for use on different projects with different needs. CableOrganizer has everything from releasable cable ties for cable bundles that require re-entry to more durable stainless steel cable ties which are perfect for low temperature projects. CableOrganizer also offers all the accessories and tools to make the job safer, quicker and cheaper to accomplish.
- Securely Bundle cables and wires. The positive-locking teeth of the cable tie allow you to make minute adjustments to create bundles of varying sizes. This means that when your cable bundle has a breakout point and the bundles are split into smaller groupings the cable ties can be tightened to allow for the new constraint.
- Organize, Identify and Code cable bundles for optimum cable management, so that the cables routed underneath your desk or behind your home theater setup are neat and tidy. Cable Flags with built in labels are wonderful for keeping your video cables separate from your audio cables, even when you need to move locations or reconfigure the cables, you'll never have to worry which cable 'goes to what device' again.
- Secure and Mount tools, bicycles and wires in the garage with cable ties.
- Clips for Cable Ties hold cables, tubing and hoses in place. Great for routing cords in confined spaces.
- Mounting Bases for Cable Ties are perfect for creating a complete routing system. Works in confined spaces or where linear removal might be necessary. 2 and 4-way cable tie mounts orientation is available depending on your routing requirements.
- Assorted sizes from miniature to extra-long.
- Extra Heavy duty cable ties.
- Cheap disposable variety.
- Colored Cable Ties including fluorescent.
- Food Industry Approved.
- Highest Quality Standards and Rating: UL Rated, and RoHS Compliant, Military Spec.
What Benefits can Using Cables Ties bring to your next project?
- Movement reduction both laterally and rotationally for wires and hoses.
- Repairing cable bundles Tamper-proofing lock boxes, AC units, power outlets and doors.
- Strap hoses
- High Performance cable ties can be used in projects where wires need to withstand constant vibration, ultraviolet light exposure, rain and salt water. These products are all round weather resistant.
- Flame proof and high temperature resistant coated stainless steel cable ties to secure cables and hoses in car engines and oven/baking chambers
- Protect sensitive cables and wire bundles from over-tensioning with elastic cable ties that contour around the cable bundle and maintain the highest network signal integrity.
- Physical Restraints also known as PlastiCuffs are specially designed makeshift handcuffs that are based on the general cable tie design.
What to consider when choosing the right Cable Tie for your Project?
- Grip Strip
- Tensile Strength
- High Temperature
- Organize? Color, Label
- Diameter/bundle size
- Tensile Strength:
- Durability
- Environment
- High temperatures
- Reseal or reuse
- Tamper proof
- Standards
- Usual considerations: voltage electrical cables
Application guidelines
Installation is easier than 1, 2, 3.
Note - for large jobs take into consideration potential hand strain that comes with repetitive motions. A light weight cable tie installation tool can be the answer to a quicker, safer installation.
* Keep an assortment handy - kit, as zip ties are so versatile for temporary, unexpected repairs.
We carry an assortment of light to medium weight cable tie tools to make installation quicker and easier.
Nylon Cable Ties
The most commonly used ties are made of nylon. Nylon ties are known for their light weight, pliability, and affordable cost. While they may be installed by hand, a cable tie gun is required for proper tensioning in critical operations, and recommended to reduce installer fatigue in any high volume application.
Metal Cable Ties
For applications in harsher environments or extra security for general purpose applications, metal cable ties are a great solution. Most metal ties are made from stainless steel, while some are made of aluminum or other metals. For special applications, such as food manufacturing, magnetic cables are available to prevent them from ending up in packaging.
Releasable vs Non-Releasable Ties
Ties of all materials are available as releasable and non-releasable (standard). The obvious advantage to releasable cable ties are reusability, tool-less removal, and easy bundle modification. Non releasable ties are less expensive and are more resistant to tampering.

Dog Tick
Dog Tick-Transmitted Diseases
Signs and Symptoms
Even though ticks are tiny little insects, they pose a serious health risk to our canine companions. This is because dogs, like humans, are prone to contracting a variety of tick-borne diseases. The term tick-transmitted disease refers to a number of different illnesses that can be passed on to dogs by these critters. Some of the illnesses that dogs most commonly suffer from as a result of ticks include Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, tick paralysis, and Ehrlichiosis. Since these diseases are capable of making your dog miserably sick, it's important to be aware of the danger that ticks pose. It also helps to be familiar with some of the common symptoms of tick-transmitted diseases, so that if your dog becomes a victim of such an illness, diagnosis and treatment can occur as swiftly as possible.
Since tick-transmitted diseases encompass several different illnesses, the symptoms and warning signs of a disease caused by one of these insects will not always be the same. Furthermore, even with respect to one specific disease, exhibited symptoms are not always the same from dog to dog. However, some of the most common warning signs that occur as a result of a variety of different tick-borne diseases include loss of appetite and lethargy. An elevated fever is also a typical symptom of many tick-transmitted illnesses.
In addition to these more general symptoms, certain diseases also tend to give rise to a number of more specific warning signs. For example, Lyme disease often causes lameness and arthritis in a dog. An animal suffering from this illness may have swollen joints, limp, and suffer from a stiff back. Rocky Mountain spotted fever can also cause joint disease in dogs, as well as depression, rashes, and skin hemorrhages. The symptoms of Ehrlichiosis tend to be quite subtle and can include bleeding tendencies, difficulty with breathing, and swollen lymph nodes. Tick paralysis is a condition characterized by a loss of mobility that begins to develop approximately seven to nine days after infection by the insect. This immobility can range from mild unsteadiness to complete paralysis of all four legs.
If you observe any of these symptoms in your dog, contact a veterinarian immediately. Even if you only notice subtle signs of illness, it's still important to have your dog examined by a professional who will be able to determine the source of your pet's suffering. Prompt diagnosis and treatment of a tick-transmitted disease will go a long way toward easing your pet's misery and protecting its health, comfort, and happiness.
Diagnosis of a tick-transmitted disease in a dog is based upon clinical signs and laboratory tests. When dealing with a canine patient that has potentially contracted a disease from one of these insects, a veterinarian will take the animal's complete medical history and conduct a thorough physical examination. This will allow the doctor to evaluate the dog's general health, check for clinical signs, and narrow down possible causes of the patient's suffering.
In addition to a physical examination, the veterinarian may perform a number of tests in order to confirm a diagnosis of a specific tick-borne disease. Such tests may include blood tests that will allow for the evaluation of levels of hemoglobin, certain enzymes, or other substances. In a case of suspected Lyme disease, for example, a blood sample will be taken in order to test for an increase in antibodies to the Borrelia organism. In order for the canine patient to test positive for an active infection, the levels of these antibodies must show a four-fold increase. Once the particular disease affecting the dog has been identified, an appropriate treatment plan can be developed and implemented.
Ticks are tiny, bloodsucking arachnids that feed off the blood of mammals and other animals. Ticks in North America belong to one of two families — hard ticks or soft ticks. Hard ticks have an outer shell made of chitin, while soft ticks have a membranous outer layer. Within these families, there are many different species of ticks. For example, the deer tick is predominantly responsible for the spread of Lyme disease in North America while the dog tick transmits Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
Ticks go through several stages during their lifecycle and feed upon the blood of animals for several days during each stage. Once an adult female has filled herself with blood, she mates, leaves the host animal, lays a mass of eggs, and then dies. Once the eggs hatch, the larvae wait for an opportunity to attach themselves to a host, feed, drop of the host, and enter the next phase of their lifecycle. This continues until the tick becomes an adult and is ready to mate and begin the cycle over again.
Ticks are most abundant in the spring, summer, and fall, and live in bushes, grass, and weeds. Unlike fleas, ticks do not jump onto a host. However, whenever an animal comes in contact with a tick, the parasite will attach itself to the host's skin. Ticks can also sense the carbon dioxide emitted from warm-blooded animals and can crawl for several feet toward the source. Once a tick is attached to a host, it will insert its mouth under the skin and begin to slowly suck blood from the animal. It is during this time, when a tick is feeding, that diseases can be transmitted to the host animal.
As previously mentioned, tick-borne diseases are transmitted to dogs when one of these insects passes its infected or toxic saliva into the animal's blood stream as it feeds. Ticks attach to canines when the animals pass through bushes or grass where the ticks are living. Most of the common tick-transmitted diseases that affect dogs are caused by bacteria or toxins present in the saliva of one of these external parasites. The type of bacteria present will determine the type of disease that the dog contracts.
Lyme disease is the most common disease transmitted by these external parasites in both North America and Europe. When a tick carrying Lyme disease attaches to a host, it infects the animal with Borrelia burgdorferi, the type of bacteria that causes this illness. Rocky Mountain spotted fever is a rickettsial illness, and is also passed to the host through the tick's saliva. Generally, however, the tick must remain attached to a host for several hours in order to transmit this disease. Canine Ehrlichiosis is also a rickettsial disease and develops in a dog when a tick transmits Ehrlichia bacteria to the host. Tick paralysis is caused by a toxin that is released in a female tick's saliva as she feeds. This toxin affects the dog's nervous system, which then leads to paralysis.
Most dog tick-transmitted diseases can be effectively treated with antibiotics. Doxycycline is a common antibiotic frequently used to treat both canine Lyme disease and canine ehrlichiosis. Typically, antibiotics work very well in such circumstances and dogs treated in this manner usually show marked improvement within two days. In a case of tick paralysis, symptoms generally begin to subside once the tick has been removed from the dog. Some dogs may also require supportive therapy, such as the administration of intravenous fluids, in order to help them fight the infection and overcome the disease.
Some dogs may also benefit from homeopathic remedies and supplements. Supplements that provided omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants help to boost a dog's immune system and improve its overall health, making it more able to combat any a number of diseases. Also, when a dog is sick, homeopathic remedies can help to relieve troubling symptoms. For example, omega-3 fatty acids, chondroprotectives, and a number of homeopathic products can help to reduce inflammation and relieve joint pain caused by Lyme disease. This increases a dog's comfort as it recovers from this tick-transmitted illness.
When dealing with tick-borne diseases and your dog, prevention is the best method of safeguarding your pet. Keeping your dog vaccinated against Lyme disease and regularly inspecting your pet for ticks are both important parts of preventative care. It's always a good idea to consult with your veterinarian about the dangers that ticks pose in your particular area so that you can educate yourself on how best to protect your individual dog.

External speakers for a Sumsung 42" plasma TV
by malama makena - 3/9/09 2:02 PM
I've moved my 42" Samsung plasma TV to a cabinet in my bedroom. Unfortunately, the speakers face into the cabinet and create boomy sound. I'd like to add two external speakers but am confused. I've read that I need an amp, but there is disagreement about connecting to audio 1 or 2. Also, Samsung recommends muting the internal speakers. Does this mean the TV's remote will no longer control volume?

Another disc golf adventure in the books. I of course did

Idlewild with even bigger holes and tons of water. 900 golf for me
is just going to be how it is right now in my life.
Steve Dodge is a great host. Beautiful farm that they live on. Fun
to meet lots of New England golfers. They actually play year round. I don't
know how but they do it.
Congrats to Martin for representing the Ville. I am glad he "made the cut
and got paid"
See you on the course.
Nice read indeed, thanks for sharing that Sam.

We're in the final week, the home stretch, of Menu for Hope 6 and I'm thrilled that so many of you have generously bid on items for this important charitable event.
(Update: The deadline for bidding has been extended to December 31, 2009!)
It's amazing that when so many people contribute even just a small amount, just $10 a person, collectively we can make a major impact.
However I am committed to making this the best-ever year for Menu for Hope, so I've rounded up some additional, extra-special surprises in addition to the other fantastic European and UK bid items, most of which can be shipped globally.
Two American chocolate-experts, Ginger Elizabeth Hahn and Shawn Askinosie have offered the most incredible gift baskets for bakers and chocolate lovers I've ever seen. (And I'm not kidding, folks.) Speaking of chocolate, if you live or plan to travel to London, there's a private chocolate tour for you and your guests.
My friends at Ten Speed Press have put together a collection of their best-ever baking books, including one from me. And any frites-lovers out there will certainly appreciate a professional deep-fryer, courtesy of Krups.
Ginger Elizabeth Hatbox Chocolate Extravaganza
On my last trip to the states, I managed to get through most of the chocolates that people generously plied me with along the way. But I did bring a box of Ginger Elizabeth chocolate back to Paris, which I opened one night after dinner. And after we each plucked one of the shiny brown squares from the box and put in on our mouths, we both fell silent, then looked at each other. Then I just said, "Wow", and Romain pronounced them "…Better than La Maison du Chocolat", which is some praise, especially from a Frenchman!

PVT Wars by James McClure
Tickets are $5. Call the UTC Box Office at (936) 294-1339.
Three G.I.s recovering from Vietnam War injuries while away their time on the terrace of an Army hospital. Gately, a hillbilly, fiddles compulsively with a disemboweled radio; Silvio, a streetwise, big-city type, is addicted to "flashing" (even though his sex organs have suffered?he thinks?irremediable battle damage); while Natwick, a prissy "rich kid" from Long Island, writes letters to his mother telling her how much he wants to become a close friend of Gately (while omitting mention of how actively Silvio dislikes him). Comprised of a series of brief blackout scenes, the play blends these into a meaningful mosaic as the three tease, torment, entertain, exasperate and, on occasion, solace each other?maintaining throughout a hilarity that belies their deep concern about the uncertainties of the civilian world to which they will soon be returning.

Panama Cruise
About Panama Canal and Central America Cruises
A Panama Canal Cruise is an amazing experience that should not be missed. The Panama Canal is a 48 mile long canal that links the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans. Cruises through the Panama Canal have varied itineraries. Twice a year in the fall and the spring as the ships reposition between the Caribbean and Alaska cruise lines offer full transit Panama Canal Cruises. These one way cruises sail through all of the Panama Canals impressive locks. In the winter cruise lines offer partial Panama Canal cruises. These itineraries sail roundtrip from Florida, pass through the locks of the Panama Canal before turning around and returning to their originating port after re-entering the canal system on the return trip.
Taking a cruise through the Panama Canal allows travelers to witness first hand this marvel of modern engineering. The canal system is made up of three locks and a series of artificial lakes and canals. As ships pass the locks from the east their elevation is gradually lowered and as they pass the final set of locks, the Gatun locks, the ships ascend an amazing 85 feet bringing them back to sea level. The complete journey takes about 8-10 hours in each direction.
Panama Canal cruise itineraries also include wonderful ports of call in the Caribbean, Central and South America and Mexico. Travelers can explore these different ports and enjoy a number of activities including sightseeing, shopping, watersports, beautiful beaches and friendly people.

An arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in the brain is a relatively rare condition – occurring in less that 1 percent of the population. It can, however, be neurologically morbid in young adults ages 15 to 20, who are at the greatest risk for hemorrhage and least likely to exhibit symptoms. About 2 to 4 percent of all AVMs each year hemorrhage.
An AVM's tangled mass of blood vessels, which forms in utero, produces multiple direct connections between arteries and veins without the normal, intervening capillaries. Symptoms often are not present until later in life or until after the AVM ruptures.
A small number of congenital syndromes, such as Sturge-Weber, Rendu-Osler-Weber, ataxia telangiectasia, and Wyburn-Mason, are associated with AVMs. Once formed, extrinsic factors, such as arterial shunting, growth factors and intracranial hemorrhage, may alter the size and shape of an AVM.
The most common types of AVMs are:

The softball season has its own learning curve at times. For the Hayes Pacers, the process took just two games.
After back-to-back losses to Liberty and Olentangy last week, the Pacers have won three straight, including Friday's 8-3 non-league victory over the visiting Dublin Coffman Shamrocks at Pacer Park.
"We learned a lot playing Liberty and Olentangy back-to-back," Hayes coach Mark Thomas said. "Ever since those two games, when we're down, we don't put our heads down and when we're up, we're not overconfident. We're playing well right now."
Those lessons paid off handsomely for Hayes (3-2) on Friday. Dublin Coffman (3-4) pounced on the Pacers early, scoring all three of its runs in the first inning, putting the pressure on right from the start.
But Hayes responded by scoring four times in the bottom of the inning while getting a solid defensive effort plus a strong outing from sophomore pitcher Mikayla Cooper.
"We told them when they came off the field in the first, 'Hey, we gave up three runs, now let's go out and score four,'" Thomas said. "We played some good defense behind Mikayla, Mikayla did a nice job in the circle and we're hitting the ball pretty well right now."
The offense struck first, as Cooper opened with a double to right center and scored on a pair of wild pitches by Coffman starter Jordan Mathias. Sophomore catcher Kaitlyn Woerner then reached on an error at shortstop, but was thrown out at third on ball four to junior outfielder Amber Frey trying to stretch a wild pitch into an extra base.
That didn't stop Hayes from continuing its aggressive base running. Frey stole second afterward, and sophomore designated player Chandler Fields reached on an infield single when Coffman's defense failed to catch Frey in a rundown.
Junior shortstop Alaina Manor then reached second on a two-base error by the Shamrock first baseman, allowing Frey to score and Fields to take third. One out later, Sophomore third baseman Rebekah Hire slapped a single up the middle, scoring the two runners.
After the inning, Cooper settled in, giving up just one hit and two walks the rest of the way. The sophomore finished the night allowing just two earned runs, three hits and three walks while striking out seven.
But the offense wasn't done after the opening frame. Fields reached on another Coffman error in the third, took second on a wild pitch, went to third on a bunt single by Manor and scored on a second wild pitch with two out.
Hayes pretty much secured the win in the fifth. Woerner hit a leadoff single off Coffman pitcher Haley Marshall's foot and took second directly after on a wild pitch. Frey drew a walk, but two outs followed.
Thomas then sent junior Phoebe Lewis in to pinch hit for senior outfielder Amber Arthur, and took a first-pitch strike, but the ball glanced off the Coffman catcher's glove, allowing both runners to move up on the passed ball.
Two pitches later, Lewis hit an 0-2 pitch down the right field line in between three Coffman defenders to drive home both Woerner and Frey, giving Hayes a 7-3 lead.
"In the fifth inning, Phoebe came in cold off the bench and got us a good two-run single," Thomas said. "She did a great job in a pinch-hitting role, and Rebekah got us that two-run single in the first when we were down. We had some good clutch hits tonight."
Cooper capped the offense herself in the sixth, blasting a two-out solo home run to right-center field off Coffman reliever Alex Meisner-Rathbun, then retired the side in order in the top of the seventh to end it.
Cooper, Woerner and Fields each had two hits, Cooper collecting both of Hayes' two extra-base hits with one RBI. Lewis and Hire added their clutch two-run singles, and Manor added her third-inning base hit.
Mathias suffered the loss for Coffman, allowing five unearned runs in three innings with two walks and three strikeouts. Shamrocks catcher Hannah Sabatino had two of the team's three singles on the day.

Are some secrets best kept with the dead? For most Shigofumi Mail Carriers, charged with delivering messages from the recently departed to those left behind, the question is purely rhetorical, as most Carriers are dead themselves and past the point of caring about the still breathing. The solemn girl known as Fumika, however, is all too aware of the mortal perspective, for she is still aging: an indicator that she is somehow, mysteriously, still alive.
Yet neither Fumika's own personal tragedy nor the knowledge that her mail may be a mixed blessing at best will stay her grim determination to make her morbid rounds. Though the postal scales of fate may be eternally shifted, Fumika will make sure each posthumous posting from the ultimate dead letter office reaches its intended target, even when there's deadly postage due!
