In computer science, an application profile is a set of metadata elements, policies, and guidelines defined for a particular application. The elements may be from one or more element sets, thus allowing a given application to meet its functional requirements by using metadata from several element sets including locally defined sets. For example, a given application might choose a subset of the Dublin Core that meets its needs, or may include elements from the Dublin Core, another element set, and several locally defined elements, all combined in a single schema. An application profile is not complete without documentation that defines the policies and best practices appropriate to the application. (Excerpt from Wikipedia article: Application profile)

The New Orleans Limbos. Pretty much describes where this franchise has been for years.
The New Orleans Limbos. Pretty much describes where this franchise has been for years.
Jazz...if the name wasnt already taken by a team in a city with little/no prior affiliation to said musical style lool
The Brass would fit
I like the Brass. I personally would go a different way with uniforms compared to what has previously been discussed. I would like the colors to be Navy blue, Brass/Gold, and white. (Notre Dameish). I would still do the Mardi Gras unis during Mardi Gras like they do currently. The navy,brass, white color scheme will always look good and would be a nice change from creole/teal. BigDub 81 if you see this I would love to see what you can do with it if it isn't too much trouble
i personally think the hornets are a good name...what type of name is the krew or brass for a sports team??
Hornets aren't a bad name. Its just not too fitting for a Nola Team. Since it will be a new owner, new team just think a fresh start is nice. Brass is very similar to a name like JAZZ. A little different more nola than typical nicknames
Brass, Voodoo..or krewe
i like Brass.
but would be happy with virtually anything else. we need a total re-brand.
The Krewe everything else is super Nola cliche....plus we could wear the Mardi gras unis full time
I really think it should stay as Hornets, but Brass is a pretty sick name.
@ATR22, I did a Brass concept that was the same as my Krewe concept. The only thing different was the name. A color change is simple but you would need a 4th color since white isn't technically considered a color in logo design. Mainly because white is either used within the logo or as an outline. Right now you stand at navy and gold. Take the 'NOLA trumpet' logo for instance, replace the purple for navy, gold for a brass gold and now what color would the letters be?
Home Uniform: White (obviously) with gold/brass numbering, navy outline (maybe other way around, Id have to see it)
Road uniform: Navy with white numbers, gold/brass outline
if that doesn't help you I trust your judgement on a 4th color and if you don't feel like doing it no worries
I would do a three way trade were Utah becomes the bobcats, Charlotte is contracted, and we get the rights to the Jazz and then ceremoniously bury it and stay the Hornets...is that too much to ask?
New Orleans Bourbon Streets?
I don't mind the Hornets name. What I'd like to see is a "reboot" of sorts. It's a black and gold town and wouldn't you know it... actual hornets are black and gold (well maybe a bit more yellow). Why not run with that? That'll give the New Orleans Hornets a touch of home. I'd really like to see something like that happen rather than a potentially lame name change.

Thanks to my sponsor
Landscaping and Pressure Washing
i guess you havn't seen the forecast for the saturday morning lows. i would like to play, we'll see if the forecast improves. not a fan of playing in the 30's though, call me crazy. won't have to worry about this if i move to cali.
for the online sign up and helping out the TD - why not charge say $5-$10 more if you register the day of - then the couple $$ online sign up fee will look far more appealing -
I am with Scott on this one. If the weather looks good
I will be there. If it is not I will be home getting
Captain Krunkensteined!!!
Anyone from the Louisville area planning on going there for only the tournament day? I'd like to play in this but staying overnight is too expensive for me plus it would be helpful to split paying for gas if carpooling would be an option. I am right next to UL.
I'm a professional 120-foot putter, as long as I'm at Iroquois and as long as I'm on hole 14.
Sam and Scott, they're only calling for a low of 38, which is ALMOST 40, so stop the complaining and come on out!!! I'll do all I can to make sure the rain stays away! lol
Good idea, Martin. Maybe we should start charging a little extra for day-of registration to cover the headaches of adding all the new registrations to the cards, TD report and Scoreporte! lol
Hey David, I have to work on Friday night, so I will have to head out the morning of the tournament (Sorry I have to miss the festivities the night before.) and I was looking for someone to carpool with too. Just PM me if you still want a ride.
A little rain won't hurt. I promise you won't melt!!!
Yuck. Golf index of 2 seems pretty bad.
Drew, there are a couple guys going down on Friday afternoon around 5-ish that said they might give me a ride and let me stay with them. That is, one of them said that and we are waiting to see if it's okay with the other guy. Plus I have to find out how much it will cost to stay in the hotel. I will let you know as soon as I hear from them.

Best Uses
Comments about Portland Design Works Barista Cup Holder:
This will only work with containers that are tapered. Even if your container is tapered, if the diameters are wrong your cup could fall through or barely go in. Even when the cup seems to fit well, if you go over much of a bump, the cup will jump right out. My fiancee uses this on her commuter with a big, clear starbucks-style cup, the kind with a straw designed more for cold drinks. This is one of only a few cups that works with this contraption (and we have a bunch of insulated coffee cups of various designs), but even when the device seems to work perfectly, a moderate bump and the drink jumps out. Hope you're good at catching!

Technical Assistance for Policy Reform in Egypt
2005-2010 || U.S. Agency for International Development
Egypt Technical Assistance for Policy Reform (TAPR II)was a five-year, $134 million project to provide a broad and integrated source of technical assistance to Egyptian reformers to help them define and implement their visions for economic policy and institutional reforms. Structured along seven components, TAPR II promoted foreign and domestic trade; improved financial structures, services and skills; supported macroeconomic stabilization and tax administration; improved the investment climate; strengthened the private sector and improved competitiveness; and supported higher education programs in law, economics and business. It provided technical assistance and support to reduce government's role, deregulate burdensome regulatory regimes, streamline processes, and harmonize policies, laws, and regulations that govern economic institutions and the private sector. The project built the human and institutional capacity across Egypt so that the policies, processes and procedures that were implemented and adopted could be sustained and institutionalized over time. TAPR II established relationships with Egyptian reformers within government and the private sector to support critical, demand-driven reforms that were responsive to changing circumstances in Egypt.
Egypt's ambitious economic growth and reform goals were in danger of being derailed by critical policy, regulatory, human and institutional capacity challenges. The reform effort required massive institutional reorganization, the merging of disjointed systems, personnel, and policies, and the institution of broad-based regulatory reform across specific sectors of the economy. Moreover, inadequate human and institutional capacity prevented many public and private sector organizations from developing the qualified staff and operating systems and processes necessary to meet the demands of a modern, market-based and increasingly private sector oriented economy.
Component A: Trade Environment
Deloitte provided assistance to the client to achieve measurable improvements in Egypt's trade environment for businesses and individuals. We assisted the client to bring Egyptian import and export policies and procedures in line with international standards, increased the efficiency and institutional capabilities of border agencies, protected and enforced intellectual property rights, and promoted competition policies to create an environment conducive to trade expansion and attracting foreign direct investment. We assisted the Customs Authority to reorganize along functional lines to streamline the delivery of client services while maintaining appropriate levels of social and revenue protection. We assisted in implementing a National Customs Information System and the first group of Modern Customs Centers and integrated Logistics Centers.
Component B: Financial Sector
Deloitte supported financial sector reform priorities to lay the foundation that supports private sector growth. For the Central Bank of Egypt, Deloitte implemented an Oracle Human Resource Management System. We supported risk management efforts, introduced BASEL II, and developed a Corporate Communications Department. For Egypt's Capital Markets Authority, we provided recommendations for transitioning to a risk-based approach for market supervision and for establishing individual licensing and qualifications for brokers and other market participants.
At the Egyptian Banking Institute, we assisted with implementing activities to achieve international accredidation. Deloitte provided technical assistance to the Egyptian Insurance Supervisory Authority to adopt risk-based supervision, including restructuring of its organization. Also, we developed a strategy and plan for the establishment of the Egyptian Financial Services Authority, a unified non-bank financial regulator combining the pension, insurance, capital market regulators into a single organization.
Component C: Macroeconomic Stability
Under this component, Deloitte focused its efforts on assisting the client to implement market-oriented macroeconomic policies to create sustainable economic growth. We provided legislative review and commentary on the regulations for the Income Tax Law and drafted a framework for a new Property Tax Law, Public Pension Law and Private Pension Law. Most notably, Deloitte developed a broad strategy for the integration of the tax departments and provided a road map through a number of detailed papers on specific integration issues. In addition, we helped our client in its efforts to design, develop and implemente an automated Audit Selection System for the Income Tax Department.
Component D: Enabling Policy Environment for Business
Deloitte supported the development of a body of commercial legislation, policy, and governance practices that created an enabling environment for business. We provided guidance to modernize specific commercial laws and regulations and to improve adherence to the rule of law through judicial education. We worked with the industrial property offices to improve the efficiency and productivity of the intellectual property system and assisted the Competition Authority to develop competition policy and the Consumer Protection Agency to provide protection for consumers. Deloitte assisted in creating an Alternate Dispute Resolution Center to effectively mediate commercial cases.
Component E: Facilitating Services for the Private Sector
Deloitte assisted enterprises increase their competitive position and implement streamlined measures within targeted ministries and agencies. We assisted in creating the Smart Services Business Center facility providing expedited license issuance services to the Alexandria business community. We supported the move of industrial policy and industrial parks from state-led to a Public Private Partnership model and developed an investor pipeline of over 500 companies in the automotive sector representing inflows of US$240 million. We transformed the Egyptian National Competitiveness Council into a globally recognized entity and a founding member of the Global Federation of Competitiveness Councils.
Component F: Human Resources
Deloitte assisted the client to further human capital development by building the institutional capacity of leading law, economic and business educational institutions to produce graduates prepared to meet the needs of a competitive economic system, fully integrated into the global economy.
Component G: Program Support
Deloitte supported enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of USAID monitoring, evaluating Egyptian achievement of goals required to obtain funds under the U.S. Government Direct Support Program to Egypt, improving the availability and dissemination of information on economic reform to the public, and providing opportunities for greater involvement of civil society in the process.
In its march toward reform, Egypt has been assisted by the confluence of a number of contributing factors that supported its recent success: the appointment of high-quality leaders in specific economic ministries that have become a remarkable reform team; the development and strengthening of targeted institutions that have helped support the reform agenda and ground it in the real economy; the significant level of available financial resources from willing donors, led by USAID, dedicated to support the reform agenda; and the effective technocrats and consultants who have worked closely with the reform team to bring international standards to the effort and support the implementation of sustainable reforms.

Drooping Eyelids
Drooping Eyelids
As we get older, the lower eyelids sometimes start to droop away from the eyeball. Drooping is the result of reduced muscle tone in the muscles that control the eyelids.
If your lower eyelids droop outward, away from the eye (ectropion), they may no longer be able to protect your eyes, and your eyes may become dry and irritated. If your eyelids turn inward (entropion), forcing the lashes onto the eye, this also may cause irritation and possible damage.
Also, drooping eyelids can prevent tears from draining normally, so tears may run down your cheeks. Excessive tearing can also be a sign of increased sensitivity to light or wind, an eye infection , or a blocked tear duct .
If your upper eyelids droop low enough (ptosis), or the eyelid skin folds over the edge of the lid, your vision may be impaired.
There is no home treatment for drooping eyelids. But surgery can sometimes help.
When to Call a Doctor
Call a doctor if:
- Your eye is painful or there is swelling extending beyond the lid margins.
- Your eyelids droop suddenly.
- Drooping eyelids interfere with your vision.
- Your eyes are dry and irritated, or your eyelids do not close completely while you are awake or asleep.
- Your eyelashes start to rub on your eyeball.

Ground breaking new technology allowing for daily map improvements and a host of new features, such as speech recognition, have been combined into one compact and stylish design, providing drivers with the ultimate driving experience.

Drivers can also view documents and pictures and exchange positions, destinations and other content with other TomTom GO users, through Bluetooth® wireless technology.
To compliment the new GO range, TomTom will bring to market a full range of accessories which have been designed specifically to match the design and finish of the new GO range.

Furthermore, users can shop for more services, prepare trips and receive free traffic alerts on their computer. TomTom GO 720 & TomTom GO 520
TomTom GO 720 comes pre-installed with the most up-to-date door-to-door maps of Western Europe with maximum detail stored on the internal memory.

Pre-Review: Motorola S9 Stereo Bluetooth Headset for iPhone 3.0
Come this "summer", iPhone 3.0 -- see our walkthrough -- will allow iPhone 3G (and perhaps next-generation iPhone users) to enjoy new Bluetooth functionality including stereo headsets, both the A2DP audio and ARCP control protocols. For consumers, the Motorola S9 Stereo Bluetooth headset (available from our sibling store, WMExperts) may be an option you want to consider come release day. For developers testing using the A2DP/ARCP profiles on the iPhone 3.0 Beta, they might even be something you want to consider now.
Note: This pre-review will not be focusing on iPhone 3.0 functionality, which is currently in closed beta. It will concentrate only on the headset itself. However, for those developers needing an A2DP headset for testing 3.0, it's our understanding this one works well on multiple units, over multiple carriers.
Form Factor
The Motorola S9 is a fixed form, if flexible plastic horse-shoe shaped, behind-the-head fitting audio solution that combines stereo music with phone functionality. The advantage of being a singular unit is that it's solid, unlikely to become loose or break off at some weak join point. The disadvantage is that if your head is too thin or too wide, the headset will be either uncomfortable or unusable. Likewise, the behind-the-head layout will appeal to those who like wearing hats or otherwise don't want the bar crossing over their head. However, it may be a non-starter for people who want to use them while reclining or lying down.
A status light in the middle of the bulge along the back of the headset separates the standards-friendly mini-USB charging port on one side from the power button on the other. Both are covered by soft touch red plastic. The right-side earpiece has controls for play/pause, forward, and back. The left side earpiece has controls for answering the phone as well as volume up and down. These controls are under harder black plastic, with the play/pause and answer buttons providing a tactile, click feedback, and the volume and track buttons on either side lying flat and flush.
The S9s are rated for 6 hours talk and 7 hours music, but like any re-chargeable product, battery life can and will vary based on usage and cycle. Sound volume is good, as is music quality, though the compression required for AD2P stereo Bluetooth transfer might not be to the liking of audiophiles. If you're happy enough with traditional MP3 sound reproduction, however, you'll likely have no problem with this device.
The freedom provided by wireless Bluetooth stereo headsets like the Motorola S9 will be a boon to iPhone users, the convenience easily outweighing concerns of audiophile-level sound reproduction (at least for most). They won't fit everyone on either end of the physical or usage pattern scale, but as with the quality, they're well suited for a large enough swathe down the middle.
Bottom line, if you want something solid, affordable, portable, and functional for your iPhone 3.0 developer unit, or upcoming iPhone 3.0 release unit, you'd do well to consider the Motorola S9s.
- Good sound
- Good battery life
- Good price-point
- Light and comfortable
- Well suited for on-the-go use.
- May not fit all head sizes
- Not well-suited for lying down

Pre-Review: Motorola S9 Stereo Bluetooth Headset for iPhone 3.0
I would still prefer the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS980 over this any day. With a OLED-display that shows track information, your phonebook, call history, battery status, the time, etc. Can't see why anyone would like this more.
Really hope someone will make the HBH-DS980 work as nice with the iPhone as with my SE P1i.
I have the JayBirds. Wish I could get my hands on one of the new iPhones this summer that way I could get rid the BT adapter.
Can you guys do the voyager 885 as well ? :)
I think those might actually get a 5/5
855 actually.
I had an S9 before and I've also tried the Plantronics Voyager. After these burned out on my from my instense workout sweating I went and got a bluetooth wireless headset from JayBird. I found the JayBird is the better cause they stay on so well. They're also a good small size which I like.
I haven't seen the problem you are describing and I am on beta 3 too. I did notice that the 'stereo' portion of the device cannot be connected to anything else or it won't connect properly to the iPhone. But once properly connected i can play anything in iPod to switch over to the motorola s9. I have to take that step before using it with 3rd party apps.
I am also on Beta 3 and the s9 works great (pairs easily and sound good) if you are limiting your activity to light movement and line of sight proximity. Every time I try to ride my bike it cuts out continuously. I have tried it in my seat pouch, my shirt pocket and an armband. None of them work. I have a bike mount on order (should be here today) and will try that as next. But I don't have much hope for that as it wouldn't be any closer to the headset than the armband. When I connect a wired headset it works perfectly. I guess I could try strapping it to my helmet!
I'm also running beta 3. They work (the HD ones), but refuse to skip ahead or back when playing music. Hopefully this is fixed by the final version or there will be some workaround. If you are rocking beta 3 on a first generation, it won't work. The a2dp is not supported on these phones, only second gen and next.
Running 3.0 GM version on a 3G using original S9's and can confirm that song next/previous (AVRCP) does not work. I am able to stop and start music via the headphones. Also, there is no ability to raise or lower the volume using the side buttons when connected to a headset. There is also no volume slider in the pop up itunes control window.
just a heads up. i just connected my S9's against iphone 3.0 software on 3G (i've had them for a while for use with other products) and they work great. Sound quality is great. I had to pair twice to begin with because the first pairing was horrible so keep that in mind. as others have posted at various sites the 'next' and 'back' track buttons dont work on the original S9's but supposedly do work on the S9 HD's so keep that in mind. all other features work. for me this is kind of crappy because when i go for a run or ride i like the ability to quickly be able to skip a track if it is not motivating for exercise. otherwise, volume up/down, pause, play and phone functions work fine. i may have to crack and purchase the HD version just for the forward and back buttons to work but will test taking the iphone on long rides....it is a little too heavy to take on outdoor runs but is fine sitting on a treadmill shelf and transmitting. wow! on another note i just walked 40 feet from the phone and the sound is still strong. i even walked around a corner and into a closet and still great sound. the dongle that came with my original S9 never did a great job of transmitting bluetooth very far but i've noticed that on my curve and now the iphone the transmission is much stronger. hope this helps. -robert
Anyone tried pairing the Motorola S9 headset with the Gen1 iPhone running 3.0?
I have a motorola s9 it pairs great with the streaming music and I can hear phone calls, but the other person can not hear me. Also the volume buttons work but the pause and forward back buttons do not. I was just wondering if there was a problem with the headphones or this is just the way it is?
I've got the s9 and successfully paired with my iPhone 3g v3.0 ..everything works fine EXCEPT the "forward" and "back" buttons will not work... very frustrating, as I MTB with this setup and keep my iPhone in my camelbak. If I want to skip a track I've got to stop, get the iPhone out, turn it on, skip the track, put everything back.
Anyone know of a way to fix these? Does Motorola offer a way to upgrade the firmware?
Input Please! I just purchased a 3G S.
I've had the S9's for a while & they've worked flawlessly & completely with the Motorola Q9.
With the 3G S the stereo sounds excellent, and the phone answer button is working. I can't get Play, Pause, or Tracks to work. Has anyone else??? Are others getting at least Play & Pause to work?
If any one could help that would be great!
Ok, so I am 60% hard of hearing in my left ear and was wondering if any one knows if phone call can be done in stero? Or placed in my right ear? I have been turning them up side down so I can hear people
if any one could help that would be nice
Thank you !!!!!!
Just got a pair of S9's to pair with my Iphone 3GS. They do work great indoors but the moment I headed out onto the streets for a run I got constant drop outs. I tried turning off Wi-Fi and 3G hoping this might reduce the problem somehow but alas no.
If I held the phone directly next to the headphones then I didn't get any drop-out but, as you can imagine this is not a position best suited for running.
I guess if I was on a treadmill inside I might not have this problem but jogging around the local park is a complete no go in them.
I have the S9 and once I updated to 3.0 it paired and worked fine, all except for the forward and back buttons as others have mentioned. However, now I cannot get the handsfree volume or play/pause buttons to work. This started happening intermittently and then when I recharged and unpaired and re-paired it would wortk again (all except for the forward and backward of course).
One time also, strangely, when pairing an additional configuration option came up on the iphone asking about handsfree mode and asking for a PIN. I input the standard 0000 and it said invalid PIN and nothing seemed to happen. I have never seen this additional hands free configuration option again. and I am stuck now without the ability to start and stop thje muisic or change the volume. I can answer calls hands free though.
Weird. I have shut the phone off an on, tried doing it while paired, while not paired, etc. Nothing seems to work. Maybe I shoudl go back and do some sort of hard reset on the phone and reload or something.
I upgraded From Motorola S9 to S9-HD , Both Next/Previous Track buttons dont work, But everything else dose.
i sure hope some one will release something for Jailbroken Iphones to add Additional Bluetooth support for these function to become available ;)
Other then the Next Track Button, S9-HD sounds Amazing, and was well worth the money
I think apple is missing some code in order for the S9s to work. At startup everything worked minus the back and forward button.But after a week of use, now the volume does't work nor the pause button. Maybe motorola will fix the problem since they stand to make a profit out of all those iphone out there.
If it's around any other bluetooth devices it will immediately drop sound. It also constantly loses sync just walking around with my iPhone.
Oh and it refuses to synch with any Mac running OSX 10.6 and on 10.5.7 it was dropping constantly even when I'm 5 feet away with a fully charged battery and all other bluetooth devices off.
Works great, resp. sound great, hold OK, comfortable, Volume/UPDown, Next/Prev do not works. 3.0 firmware, in beta 3 it works...so sw error

Streamline Performance Analyzer
ARM® DS-5 Development Studio Streamline performance analyzer enables you to get the best out of your system's resources and create high performance, energy efficient products. Its innovative user interface brings together system performance metrics, software tracing, statistical profiling and power measurement to present you with a system dashboard where you can quickly identify code hotspots, system bottlenecks and other unintended effects of your code or the system architecture. Take an in-depth look at Streamline or read the Streamline FAQ »
The right level for modern complex systems
We are great fans of ARM® CoreSight™ trace. It is the best technology for so many use cases. But the reality is, on today's very fast and complex multicore SoCs instruction level is just the wrong level of abstraction for system analysis. Streamline for Linux and Android uses a hassle-free architecture, based on a software agent (named Gator), to collect all statistics you require to analyze your system, at a fraction of the cost of a high-end trace unit. Gator is open source (therefore extensible) and typically does not take more than 3% of CPU time on a single core device. Learn more about real-life Streamline use cases in this blog series.
Ideal for Linux, Android, and now Cortex-M microcontrollers
Initially launched to help engineers develop more efficient Linux and Android based products, Streamline has just gained compatibility with the ARM Cortex®-M series processors. In Beta since October 2013, the new MCU mode can capture ITM and DWT data with minimal intrusiveness through an ARM DSTREAM unit to deliver a similar user experience as in Linux/Android mode. In MCU mode Streamline provides an RTOS task-level heat map, PC sample reports and performance counters that enable you to track over time the efficiency of the code and the target's responsiveness to external interrupts.

Multicore system optimization made simple
The potential performance gain of an extra core can be easily missed because of issues like poor thread synchronization and sub-optimal parallelization. For SMP platforms, Streamline features per-core and per-cluster statistics to help you quickly verify your system utilization. Moreover, as if you were Superman, the X-Ray mode makes you see through the software threads' tracing to find out on which core they were running at any moment.
Reap the energy efficiency advantage of your ARM device
We are very proud of our processor technology and its indisputable energy efficiency leadership. However, between us designing our IP and your final product shipping, many things can dramatically impact on energy consumption. In this respect, we know your software can be either the hero or the villain of the day.
When paired to an ARM Energy Probe or National Instruments DAQ unit, Streamline can acquire real power data from your board and correlate it with all the other software and hardware statistics, including DVFS and cpuidle, to show you the true picture of your power management. Alternatively, Streamline can read and display these measurements directly from your Linux hwmon subsystem. Learn more about how to use the Energy Probe with the hwmon subsystem in this blog. Watch the Energy Probe introduction video.
Integrated ARM Mali Graphics, OpenCL and CoreLink CCI Performance Analysis
Graphics intensive tasks, such as sophisticated user interfaces and gaming content, do not run in isolation in just one processor. For this reason, you need to have visibility of the performance across application and graphics processors. Streamline links up to ARM Mali GPU drivers to provide a wide range of statistics on OpenGL® ES 1.1 and 2.0 usage, over 300 software and hardware performance counters and samples of the frame buffer, enabling a new breed of high performance, energy efficient content. Learn about GPU optimization for Mali Utgard and Midgard devices with our practical guide.
Streamline also supports visualization of OpenCL dependencies, helping you to balance resources between GPU and CPU better than ever. By making clever use of processor loading, significant performance gains are possible, giving your customers a slicker, more responsive, more engaging experience on the latest generation of mobile devices.
In addition, Streamline highlights bottlenecks coming from fabric resources such as cache memories and the CoreLink CCI-400 by also reading and displaying its performance counters.
User Annotations
Streamline also provides visibility of high-level events in the software, which are important to measure time between events and understand the relationships between events, thread activity and system resources. From tracking machine state changes on a timeline, to correlating frame buffer content with performance issues, all you need to do is to write (yes, printf style) into the gator driver from either user or kernel space.

During a trip to New York City, Bill H. and his family decided to adopt a dog at the ASPCA Adoption Center. Lex, now named Sandy, was one of many animals rescued in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy in October 2012. Bill shared the following story with us about Sandy's happy new life in Pennsylvania:
Adopting Sandy was a product of luck, timing and coincidence. Denise, my wife, and I were visiting New York City with our daughter Amanda, and stayed at a hotel next door to the APSCA. As we walked by, Amanda's first question was, "Can we get another cat?"
We saw a couple of dogs that Amanda and I liked, but Denise was not sold—that is until she saw Sandy. Our introduction to Sandy involved a great deal of barking, but she became very happy and her tail began wagging like crazy upon seeing ASPCA staff. A potential adopter was visiting with Sandy, so we decided to come back the next day. We decided that Sandy was a good fit for us, and we hoped we were a good fit for her.
From that point on, Sandy has been nothing but happy surprises. She got into our car and sat on Denise's lap for the whole ride back to Pennsylvania. We learned at the Adoption Center that Sandy might take a little longer to warm up to men. When we got home, I was sitting on our deck while Sandy explored. After a few minutes, she walked up to me, licked my face, and then rolled over and sprawled out, waiting for her me to pet her belly. Sandy also became fast friends with my 20-year-old son, Zack.
We have had a few people in and out of the house since Sandy's arrival, and she has reacted to them with varying degrees of wariness, but has warmed up to each. We host a large deck party every year, and struggled with what to do with Sandy during the party. We decided if she became uncomfortable, we would put her in our room. The best part of the party was how Sandy handled everything. In the beginning, she stuck by me or Zack. By the end of the night Sandy was "working" the party, "introducing" herself to various guests and letting them know she expected to have her belly rubbed if they were deemed lucky enough to get the "rollover."
Right on!!! This baby wanted your family and YOU gave her your home.... this is fantastic!! Many, many years of love and happiness bless your home!! Thank you, thank you for opening your home and hearts to Sandy!!
I'm impressed, I must say. Really rarely do I encounter a blog that's both educative and entertaining, and let me tell you, you have hit the nail on the head. Your idea is outstanding; the issue is something that not enough people deck modular are speaking intelligently about. I am very happy that I stumbled across this in my search for something relating to this.

GREENVILLE - Shannon Clark, a Greenville native, wasn't sure he'd ever pursue a career in music again after a life-altering event occurred several years ago, but after a brief break, he decided that in order to be a better role model for his children, he needed to continue to go after his dreams, and in January, he auditioned for America's Got Talent.
After a four-year hiatus from music, which Clark said he took to focus on his family after his wife Brittany became ill and their oldest daughter passed away, he began playing again last year.
"I struggled with that decision, and last year I decided I was going to start playing again; I want to be a role model for my children, and if I'm going to do that, I can't just throw away my dreams. As I've gotten older, my focus has matured, and so has my dream," Clark stated. "At this point, what I really want is to stay home with my family and write songs for other people. I don't need to be away from my family, or my spiritual responsibilities, to do that."
Clark has played at several area locations, including Main Street Greenville's First Fridays, and this Thursday he'll be in Preble County at Taffy's in Eaton, beginning at 7 p.m., which Clark stated was a free show. He's not in the business for the money, but for the love of the music, he said.
"The music industry is no way to support a family these days; there are too many obstacles, and it's harder to get people to come out to live shows and get them involved," Clark said. "I want to always do something with music, but I'll always be doing other things too, soap making or my food trailer or whatever."
When he saw an opportunity to enter a contest to win front-of-the-line passes through ReverbNation to audition for America's Got Talent, Clark wasn't even sure he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, but in the end he said it was a good way to network with people in the industry, if nothing else.
"I'd always thought about doing that type of show before, but I wasn't really into the idea of waiting in line to hear someone I don't really respect judge my music," Clark commented. "But, I won a contest through ReverbNation for front-of-the-line passes, which is just like it sounds, I got to go to the front of the line in whatever room I was in, and just went in with the next group that was called back."
An assistant producer called back groups of 20-25, Clark said, into a room with a camera and lights set up. Those auditioning stated their name and what they were playing, and "everyone in the room listens to you play," Clark said.
"I was amazed how many people showed up to audition who had just, no talent, and no business being there," Clark commented. "I was trying to be serious and keep a straight face - and there was this one girl who couldn't remember the words to her song, picked another, and couldn't remember those, either…I was the last person in my group to sing, and I was nervous, which was odd because it's not like I've never performed in front of people, but this was different."
The group was dismissed following their auditions, and told they would be contacted for follow-up. As Clark was putting his guitar away, however, an assistant producer asked to see him again. Clark played "Sunday Morning" by Maroon 5, and got partially through "The Way You Make Me Feel" by Michael Jackson before he was stopped and asked to talk more about his personal story, losing his daughter and taking a break from music to focus on his family.
"We were talking and it was personal; I was a little emotional, from the adrenaline and being nervous, talking about my daughter," Clark recalled. "She thought I had a great voice, and wanted me to audition for the producers; they don't tell everyone that the producers are even there, because they don't want them to be disappointed. Only about 200-300 get to audition for the producers, out of the thousands that audition. But she told me I needed to give 200 percent; that they were looking for star quality, and that I needed to sell my talent with my story."
Clark waited about 30 minutes before being shown to a room with lights, camera, and producers, where he sang a Michael Jackson song, and a song he'd written himself.
"They were less personable at this stage, and harder to read; when I'd performed for the assistant, I knew she liked what she was hearing, I could see it on her face," Clark said. "I sang, and I thought I did pretty well. They said they'd review the audition tapes and contact us in February or March - and they stressed that no decisions would be made that day."
Shannon's wife Brittany said she knew that if there was a next step in Indianapolis, that Shannon would make it there, though they are both curious to know what happens at the next stage. Shannon said that they're not willing to compromise their values for him to appear on the show, but that he'd be willing to try it.
"As far as I understood, that was as far as I could get at that point," Shannon commented. "I feel like I could have shown my personality more than I did, but I didn't want to be disrespectful. I know I went in and did a good job, though."

212 men or even green irish tweed, maybe eternity
I'm new here, and although I like fragrances a lot, I'm not familiar with most brands and the jargon.
So, here's my question. I want this fragrance:
I want a fragrance that invokes a feeling of vastness. Open, dry. Cool.
Like a mountain plateau. Transparent, lucid. Misty. Breezy.
In one word, vast.
Musically, an electric guitar with lots of swelling notes, a lush double bass going between rhythm and sentences, drummer going to town on the cymbals setting the texture, and an airy, reverbed trumpet.
Like Terje Rypdal's Skywards, If mountains could sing, or a bit like pink floyd's marooned.
Like I said I don't know the terms and ingredients well.
The only ingredient I can think of is a pot of black tea brewed yesterday. Dirt, ozone, dry grass...
So yeah. That's what I'm asking for. Please help.
212 men or even green irish tweed, maybe eternity
Seems like your landscape is clashing with your music! LOL. I have no idea what you would like, but the landscape reminds me of Sandalo by Lorenzo Villoresi. If you want a cheapo, perhaps Cuba Green.

Well, I thought the feeling of the landscape and music matches. Terje's music is not that busy, except the drums. But it's faint, and is just there for the texture. Like the painting I did.
What a great first post and a great way to ask for a suggestion! Very very creative. I love it!
I'll expand on this later but my first thoughts are, in order of relevance:
Amouage Ciel Man - bright blue skies, sunshine. That transcendent feeling of coming back to life when the first spring-like day visits after a long and cold winter. The scent is crisp and slightly cool without being cold. Perhaps a bit brighter and more upbeat than the picture you have posted, however. If a bright sun was in the corner of the painting, this would be the perfect match. If I ahd to ascribe color to this scent, I'd say it is a blue to silver gradient from topnotes to base.
Creed Green Valley - verdant green grass over the creed ambergris base. The first half of the scent is quite close to the picture you've posted, in my minds eye, although not so much the second half. Worth a sniff though. I don't have enough experience with this one to elaborate more, but the little experience I do have suggests it may fit the bill.
M. Micallef "White Sea" - a hazy and cool scent composed primarily of lime, iris, violet and sweet patchouli. This is hazy and almost foggy in nature. Not particularly dry though - this too has a certain wetness to its composition. This scent does, in my mind's eye, evoke similar feelings as Pink Floyd's "Marooned" (I absolutely LOVE that song).
Six Scents "Wicken 3000" - epitomizes a feeling of vastness. Open, and cool, but more wet than dry. This might be like viewing the scene in your post through a telescope, while you're 500 miles out to sea. Extremely minimalist. Also evokes similar feelings to "Marooned" - although almost in a slightly more futuristic way. Marooned in space, perhaps.

Russian Caravan Tea by CB I Hate Perfumes
You're along for the ride with the nomads in their caravan and they made an overnight stop somewhere overlooking the vast plains. The weather is cool, the air misty with morning dew. Seems like a perfect time for that hot fragrant cup of tea...
Welcome to Basenotes!

thanks nsamadi and diamondflame
smoked black tea and old books?
while I'm not sure if it would have that high altitude ozone and chill, that russian caravan tea definitely picked my curiosity.
Try out Green Irish Tweed and Green Valley. I don't know why but they come to mind.
Magnolia Romana & Vetiver Extraordinaire come to mind immediately.
Forget the "magnolia" part of MR; read Vibert's review in the directory, he says it best, in my opinion.
VE is less strange smelling, but you definitely have the cool, grassy vetiver note lifted up by an airy accord.
Green pastures and a grey sky...This picture reminds me of nothing but the good old Green Irish Tweed.
I definately visualise scents, so your painting there is a great way of describing what you want!
I'm not so well versed in men's fragrances, but I second Galamb_Borong's suggesting of a vetiver. Vetiver/vetyver/vetivert/khus can be dry grassy with a touch of warm exotic woods and in pure form has a light cooling effect, like menthol. Reminds me a lot of your image.
Out here we are running for the wide open spaces, the road-smell after the rain.
Give Calvin Klein Truth a spin if you get the chance!
Tom Ford - White Suede
Creed Santal Imperial
Welcome to Basenotes!
When I saw your painting, the first fragrance I thought of was Il Profumo – Vetiver De Java.
It's airy and transparent feeling, yet complex with luxurious-smelling citrus and lavender as top notes, very gradually fading into a woody-mossy base that is reminiscent, to my nose at least, of a cool damp meadow after a rain with a fresh breeze blowing across it. (…can you tell I love this one? ) I would definitely describe it as "vast".
I see your painting as meadows after a spring storm has passed, leaving them fresh and full of life and color, yet with the feeling that more storms are yet to come with the shadows in the foreground. It's a great contrast between what we think of as "gloom" and "vibrancy", and representing the "vastness" of constant change in the universe.
I wanna say something. Im gonna put it out there. If you like it, you can take it, if you dont, send it right back ."
For a twist, try Cirrus by Amouage, or Silver by Amouage. While nsamadi's suggestions capture much of the earthy grit and green notes of the image, these couple are more in line with the open air and crisp coolness without the calone and overdose of common synthetics that can plague a scent.
Another that came to mind that might fit it is Bond No. 9 Central Park.
I'm a colognosaurus. Rawr!
I too agree with Green Irish Tweed.
While I think there are a lot of good green recommendations here, I don't think many/most of them fit with the feeling evoked by Pink Floyd's Marooned. I just want to specify that a number of my earlier recommendations were not very green oriented, but instead aimed to evoke that sense of a vast and almost foreboding openness, the sense of truly being marooned.
Another scent that may fit the bill that features both a cool, almost frosty green nature, along with a haziness, with hints of dirt and minerals, is Les Nez The Unicorn Spell. I would actually rate this at the top of my recommendations.

The Cumming is not for newbies, as it has a rubber and chlorine note in there. It doesn't last that long, but then there is the white truffle (or whatever it is) that dominates on my skin, and I wouldn't think of it as an expansive landscape kind of frag. It's rather "alien," in a sense, so I would think of it as good for a landscape on a different planet! LOL.

My first though upon looking at that is Lalique's Encre Noire. I get the green, but also a cold, distant harshness of the nature. sort of like a serious take no prisoners power. That frag is barren, no warmth or light. not a knock on the frag, just my feeling looking at that pic

Most of the time I am very proud of the Basenotes community. Time after time I have witnessed the thoughtfulness, empathy & genuine friendship that members of this community extend to others - oldtimers & newcomers alike. There are other times, however, when egos get the upper hand and civility goes out the window. My philosophy is that I won't say anything here that I would not say if you were standing in front of me. Welcome to Basenotes, each and every one of us. ~ TwoRoads
My second - Garrigue by Maître Parfumeur et Gantier. Although the picture (and your description), seem a lot colder and misty. Garrigue gives me dry, openness, somewhat salty and rather dirty. It smells to me like being pulled through some shrubs, dipped in the sea and left to dry in the heat.
Some really good recs here.... you know what though? As silly as it sounds, Green Irish Tweed fits the picture really well.
Bel Respiro, Bois de Violette, Silver Mountain Water, Brin de Reglisse, Iris Silver Mist, Apres L'Ondee, Mitsouko, Sel de Vetiver, Sous le Vent, Angeliques sous la Pluie could work well too. Sorry, I don't have to time to elaborate on all of these, or why I think they fit the description, but a quick peek at the reviews on BN will give you a good idea of what to expect.
Sales thread here
This thread is a great. I agree with others that this is a very original way of seeking a fragrance.
Giving it some more thought, Miller Harris' Fleurs de Sel came to mind, too. Curiously salty, dry, herbal fragrance, and as it's not a full-on aquatic per se, it's as suitable to vast inland expanses as the salt march it's meant to depict.
Thanks to everyone for your overwhelming suggestions and welcome.
I'll try to read reviews and test as much of these as I can.
It seems vetiver is the most obvious element for this fragrance. That I will keep in mind as well.
Leto, it's nice to see an istanbulite here. I can't seem to find a local shop that carries Creed, and it's not really "good old" for me personally. If it's possible I'd appreciate if you'd help me test it.
Thanks again for all of your kind input.
When I saw your landscape with all that grass I thought at once of Vent Vert. If you can find it you will see it matches the picture you posted just fine.

Querelle by Parfumerie Generale
This is a very interesting question indeed!
The fragrance that immediately comes to mind for me is Parfumerie Generale L'Eau Guerriere
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
Obsessions of the Moment- Kristiansand EDC, Green Irish Tweed, Zizan
Granted, we've known each other for some time. It don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine. ~ Common Sense
Ok, an update. I'll be writing this with as much objectivity and honesty as possible.
After seeing the most common element was vetiver, I took off to get to know it. I realize now it's not easy to understand it completely as I've already seen so many different faces of it.
My first stop was L'occitane. I tested their "vetyver" In retrospect I'm glad it was the first scent I smelled, this was the greenest, most herbal vetiver of all.
My second stop was guerlain's vetiver. I think I had high expectations of it. I thought it was good, but very focused to do its job, being a functional fragrance. If that makes sense. It wasn't as raw as L'occitane's vetyver either.
Then... I tried Encre Noire. I was literally blown away. It was like a simple sentence with deep implications. I don't know if it's just the vetiver, but the quality I attribute to it is definitely a whole new face of the ingredient. I bought it, just because it's already an excellent fragrance, and suits my usual tastes perfectly. But by itself, it was not what I set out to find. There is barely any sky, or wideness. It's distant but tight. Though I digress, any review I can make can wait until I wear it for a while.
According to my list, and the boy at the shop, I had exhausted my options available there. So I hung around a bit, smelling my wrist drenched in encre noire.
While checking the shelves, I saw an intriguing bottle. It was named Kenzo Air. Huh, I said. Maybe I should check this as well. I sprayed some on my available inner elbow... And nothing? All I could smell was vetiver, probably due to a fatigued nose, and the scent I was already wearing. I waited a while, smelled my inner elbow again. No. I had it sprayed to a card before I left.
We sat at a coffee shop to rest. After drinking my coffee and being confident that my nose was probably ready for action again I smelled the card and wow. Vetiver. And a great smell overall. I decided to give it another shot from beginning to end another time.
Next day, which is today, I visited another shop just to try Kenzo Air again. To cut to chase, I loved it more than I though I would. A very open and totally great scent. The vetiver was much more similar to Encre Noire than the other ones, but with a much different feel to it. If it had some dirt to it, and some misty air, this could be perfect. Kenzo? I thought. I don't know how it's perceived in other places, but the Pour Homme was today's Gio back at times. That made me remember Kenzo pour Homme. I loved the scent when it was around despite the stigma attributed to it. And if I remembered correctly, it definitely had a "reverbed" misty high altitude (or ocean) air.
I went and sprayed some Kenzo Pour Homme on my Kenzoair'ed wrist. I thought, and I still think, it's a great combination, albeit makeshift and uncontrolled. Which I don't like. I humbly think some attributes of Kenzo Pour homme combined with most of Kenzo Air, with a part of moist soil and mushrooms sitting close to skin would be almost perfect.
After I came back home, and found out that Terre d'Hermes is also a vetiver including scent, and earthy enough to deserve a Terre in its name. I will check it out as well. I will also do my best to hunt down at least some samples of the rarer fragrances mentioned here in the mean time.
I already got myself a great fragrance out of this, and got to know a wonderful ingredient, so thanks a lot. I'll keep updating this.

Very Irrésistible for Men (2005)
by Givenchy
Dirt ozone dry grass puts me in the mind of vetiver...but which one will suit is the question.
Tauer's Vetiver Dance has a very earthy opening and felt very raw to me.
Creed's Original Vetiver with which I am not personally familiar has many fans.
Gueralin's Vetiver maybe to subtle and refined for you. (NOT meaning you're not refined!)
Encre Noir I see you liked. It's unique.
Creeds Vetiver (1948) might be a bit too elegant; not earthy enough.
I do like Green Irish Tweed, but it seems less deep and friendlier than what you seek.

DIOR FAHRENHEIT is what you are looking for.
Nice notes about those three you tried and I generally agree with your assessment of them.
- I found the L'Occitanes in general a little harsh and sharp, like home-ade chemistry. I think its got some clove or nutmeg or something in there. Not well rounded, but they are affordable and surprisingly good. A little too rugged for me though.
- The Guerlain Vetiver I also really like, it's much more complex and at times I find it a little dirty and ashy (tobacco notes).
- The Encre Noire is probably the most unique IMO, but too cold for my tastes. To me it's a wood fire on a cold crisp night. PS, scentedmonkey had 50ml bottles for under $30... the 100ml is $37, plus add a discount... http://www.scentmonkey.com/product.php?code=M-3128
Lastly, if you want a touch of sweetness, and you don't really like money, have you tried Chanel Sycomore? also a smokey Vetiver, lasts pretty well, sweet and smokey.
As for Terre D'Hermes, yes it's got vetiver and it's "earthy", but I feel like it's fundamentally a warm frag. like I picture a warm sunbaked stone in the sand. To me it's a dry heat with a little spicy and some sparkling orange to begin. Your picture makes me think of cold and damp. Still a great frag though, so maybe you'll like it.
I'd still suggest trying out GIT if you can, just because it's generally so well recieved.

I guess what you're are looking for doesn't really come in one fragrance only. It seems you can get different aspects of it from different scents. Another one I can recommend is S-eX by S-Perfume if you looking for space or vastness. Though, it doesn't have the green grassy or dirt earthiness you're looking for.
Master-Classter thanks for your reply. I like money, but it doesn't like me too much. Still I will try to test Sycomore as well.
Some of the perfumes previosly mentioned, including GIT, are hopefully on their way to me in sample bottles. I don't have high hopes for it really, but maybe that's for the best.
I think fireplace on a cold night is a very apt description of encre noire. I love it. I already bought a 100ml of it, but that price is very good. Thanks for letting me know.
Guerlain vetiver, well.. I think it's a perfume for men that wear suits. I don't wear suits. And I don't get dirt at all. It's squeaky clean for my nose.
I haven't tested Terre D'Hermes yet, but I will soon. Thanks a lot.
I'm still hopeful that I can get near. But I DO get different aspects of it from different scents. Time will tell
@adesor: I've been wearing fahrenheit for 13 years or so. I love it. And I think I get why you recommend it. It has a cold, distant breeze to it, even though it is not a fresh scent at all.
@stylinLA: thanks for the reply and recommendations, and lol. I absolutely understand what you mean by that refinement remark.
I think you'll find that Sycomore is very similar to Encre Noire, though Sycomore is a touch more refined (and a LOT more expensive)

If this reviewer gets Dennett right (and I have a strong suspicion that he does), then you are quite correct, it is an excellent review.
I have read the book, and it's one of the most notoriously bad reviews that the Times has printed in recent years. In fact, this particular review has become something of a embarrassment for the Times, judging from the letters they got objecting to it. But then, what were they thinking, having a literary editor write a review of a book on science, psychology, and religion?
Since, as I said, I haven't read the book, I'll take your word for it. But I have to wonder, if Dennett is just calling for more stufy of religious experience, he choose to call his book, "Breaking The Spell." The spell of religion is not going to be broken by investigating the nature and neurophysiology of religious belief. To believe otherwise is to commit the genetic fallacy. I hope that you are correct that Dennett is not guilty of it.
[quote author="waltercat"]
Materialism is also a metaphysical belief. I have a hard time accepting it not because I am certain that there are non-material phenomena, but because I am wary of metaphysical doctrines in general.
Metaphysical doctrines are non-material claims—that's literally what metaphysics means (before physics). The basis of materialism is a rejection of metaphysics . So what you are saying is that you don't believe in materialism because you're a materialist…
Now that I will disagree with. Materialism is the rejection of non-material phenonmena; but then it is a metaphysical position. It is the position that the ultimate nature of the universe is material and there are no immaterial phenomena. An atheist does not have to be a materialist. Indeed I think that we should not be. While most phenomena scientists investigate is material, I don't see how that demonstrates conclusively that all of reality is material. We should at least open-minded to the possibility of non-material phenomena.

Men's Soccer Struggles Continue as Limestone Posts 3-0 Shutout
October 6, 2011
Story Courtesy of Limestone Sports Information
GAFFNEY, S.C. Limestone College (7-3, 4-1) scored twice in the first half and then put together a stellar defensive effort as they did not allow a single shot on goal in a 3-0 win over visiting Pfeiffer University (1-9, 0-5) Thursday in a Conference Carolinas mens soccer matchup at Saints Field.
Ranked fifth in the nation in goals per game, the Saints lived up to their billing as they punched home the match-winning score with just 97 ticks coming off of the clock. On the play, freshman midfielder Sam Orritt (Doncaster, England) headed home his first score of the season off a corner kick by sophomore midfielder Larry Mahon (Kildare, Ireland) to stake the home team to a quick 1-0 advantage.
Limestone continuously mounted offensive pressure on the Falcons defense, narrowly missing scores on several occasions within the first 10 minutes of action. Orritt had another solid look at the frame only to have his resulting shot blocked before sophomore midfielder Thomas Metzemaekers (Groningen, Netherlands) narrowly missed putting LC up by two scores when his attempt bounced off the post.
The Blue and Gold held an 8-0 advantage in shots taken when Pfeiffer broke the goose egg in the shots column on an attempt by Taylor Scalera (Dacula, Ga.) just shy of the 20-minute mark. The Falcons did an excellent job on the defensive side, keeping the Saints high-powered offense under wraps until freshman forward Jorge Mackenna (Santiago, Chile) put LC ahead 2-0 off a perfectly executed cross by Mahon in the 42nd minute.
The Saints maintained the pressure to start the second half before breaking through with a score at the 62:49-mark. Sophomore forward Marvin Hudson (Nottinghamshire, England) served a nice volley into the box for sophomore midfielder Bryce Ziada (Melbourne, Australia) who then took his own deflected shot and placed it into the net for his first career goal.
The Saints came close on a couple of occasion to making it a four- or five-goal advantage but Ziada missed high at point-blank range before a header by freshman midfielder Hodaka Yonezawa sailed left. The Falcons had their best looks in the final 10 minutes of action but attempts by Scalera and Kyle Toler (Charlotte, N.C.) could not find the range as the Saints moved on to collect the 3-0 victory.
For the game, Limestone completely dominated on the offensive side as they outpaced Pfeiffer 33-5 in shots taken while also holding a commanding 13-7 advantage in corner kicks. The Falcons did not put a shot on goal.
Scalera and Toler each led the Falcons with a pair of attempts while Fahret Salihovic (Charlotte, N.C.) put up a shot. Keeper Zach Liles (Cumming, Ga.) stayed busy, recording 11 saves on the afternoon
