You are asserting that all go to Heaven
Through anyway they choose. That is a huge lie. Consider John 14:6 which is very clear:
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
This means, lets just say, God is a lier, then Jesus is not the way to salvation which means not all ways lead to Heaven. So then that would posit that if Christ is right He IS the only way.
John 3:7
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Isaiah 2:4
And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

I left work early yesterday. I told them I had something to take care of and I'd make up the hours later.
I didn't cry right away. For a minute after I read the news. Then I remembered Ryan just got married. He was on his honeymoon. And it all opened up.
I never met Ryan or worked with him, or even saw him in person. But, besides hanging out with my family, my favorite way to spend my time is with video games, and my favorite thing about video games is Giant Bomb. I know the squad might bristle at that a little, since they always apologize for only talking about games instead of making them. But no game, or even game developer, has entertained me so much for so long as the Bombcast has. I don't always have time to play games but I always make time for the podcast.
And it wasn't just that the guys are entertaining. They are like my fake friends. Between being a dad, work, and general anti-socialness, I don't have a lot of friends. But listening to the guys every week, and how excited they would be about stupid stuff (hummingbird masks!) was great. It was the genuine guy to guy patter I've been missing. Hearing dudes be excited about stupid stuff is magic.
So now I'm in mourning. My family is away for the week so I can be as mopey and teary as I want. And I have been mopey and teary. I feel so sorry for being that way though. I didn't lose a spouse or a son or a friend of a dozen years. I just lost some guy I adored but never met who was great on podcasts and videos and has questionable taste in incarnations of Starship Troopers.
But I guess I've always been that way. I remember ten-year old me as the only one bawling at my great-grandfather's funeral, even though he had lived 90-odd years and I didn't know him that well. And my wife always catches me crying in sad movies. (How can everyone else not cry?)
Despite my tears I know I can't miss Ryan as much everyone who loved him did. But I'll still miss him as much as I can. RIP buddy.

Story and picture by GRACE CHEN
There is much to be gained from knowing how to cook, so says a chef who started frying keropok at the tender age of five.
CELEBRITY chef Zamzani Abdul Wahab has a knack for making the love for food and all things delectable a contagious affair. Those who suffer from poor appetites should consider lunching with this 38-year-old bachelor.
Watching him eat a simple bowl of beehoon soup is a gastronomic performance for the senses and it does not take long for the watcher's salivary glands to twitch and hanker for a bite of what he's having. But then, that is expected of a personality whose passion for food has turned him into a household celebrity.
For the uninitiated, Chef Zam, as he is popularly known, is the star of Seri Mas ... Selera Dunia, a food and lifestyle programme on TV2 which airs every Sunday at 5pm. The programme ended its first season last year and the second one will be scheduled for shooting once the sponsors have been confirmed.
"The second season will see us heading for Europe where we will be doing a travelogue on halal food in the region," is all Chef Zam will reveal for the moment.
Not surprisingly, Sunday Metro would find him in his 'teacher mode' during a lunch cum interview at the Signature Kitchen outlet at Sunway Mentari, a kitchen fittings showroom. Where else would a chef feel more at home? But then, Zam is in no mood to reveal the A-Zs of his dream kitchen. Instead he would take the opportunity to wage a personal campaign of his own.
"Cooking is a basic life skill that must be taught to children," is his manifesto.
The statement stems from what he feels is an unhealthy rising trend of instant noodles taking the place of healthy meals, especially so among young people who are living away from home for the first time. And horror of horrors, the chef would reveal his terrifying discovery that some adults have yet to learn how to cook rice!
"It's a shame. Some parents tell me that their daughters or sons cannot cook and they seem proud of it. They say that these teenagers are more interested in reading or surfing the Internet. There is nothing wrong with that but there will come a time when they have to eat. What then?" he queries.
Cooking, unlike the presumptions of many who are not familiar with the kitchen, is not a difficult task at all, assures this chef who started frying keropok at the tender age of five by standing on a chair to reach the stove.
While this revelation would make many gasp at the safety issues brought on by exposing a child to fire and the possibility of painful and potentially fatal oil scalds, Chef Zam would counter that adult supervision will make the activity a safe one. In his case, it was his grandmother who played the role of watchdog.
And Chef Zam would agree that there is nothing wrong with starting them young. May it be peeling onions or baking crazy cookies, the life lessons learned will carry a child beyond the kitchen.
"There are multi skills to be learned. A child will know the danger of knives and fire. Cooking is also a little project on its own which requires the intelligence of organisation. Though I know Asian culture does not encourage boys to be in the kitchen, I feel this is wrong," he says.
As for the excuse of lack of equipment, Zam, who speaks from 11 years of experience, insists that a wok, stove, spatula plus a chopping board and knife, would be more than sufficient to whip up a delicious meal.
"In the first place, understand how ingredients work. This is not hard because everyone has had the experience of eating. So, just delve into your library of experience and chances are you will be able to figure this part out," he enthuses.
As an example, assam boi and vinaigrette dressing for a mango and guava salad, roti canai stuffed with durian paste and deep-fried 'lempuk' balls (mashed durian rolled up like dodol) coated with quaker oats, are among some yummies Chef Zam discovered during his culinary experiments.
Lastly, here's a word of advice from a seasoned chef on how to keep the kitchen a peaceful place.
"A home-cooked meal, especially from a loved one, should be very much appreciated. If it so happens that the food does not taste good, courtesy should prevail and the cook should be complimented anyway," he says with a knowing smile.
For those keen on some quick cook notes or looking for an emcee to liven up an occasion, Zamzani can be contacted at 012-377 7603.

New App Blocks Annoying Ads Online
San Diego, California (NAPSI) - When it comes to advertising, consumers have the right to fast-forward through commercials on television, or simply mute the TV until the show comes back on. In print publications, readers can just skip over ads with their eye, staying focused on the next article. For Internet users, it's a much different playing field and advertisers know it.

In addition to the Heyward Sofa, I found some stylish table lamps at the local West Elm. I'm highlighting these since they are easy to overlook on the website; you don't know they are available in faux-bois until you click on 'other images'. They are also available as floor lamps, too. I like them, they're very well priced and the shades come in various solids and patterns, so you can mix things up a little, which is never a bad thing.

You may notice the blog of the week is actually a website filled with art, the blog of Marisa Haedike, and podcasts. These podcasts are the primary reason for selecting Creative Thursday as Blog of the Week.
When I started listening to Marisa's podcasts last year on Creative Thursday, I heard a familiar voice. My own. Nearly everything she discusses resonates with me on some level. Maybe it's because we're the same age and have that "been there, done that" mentality – it comes from experiencing a lot at a young age and knowing that you have "arrived", you have nothing to prove anymore. I don't mean arrived as in big success, fame, riches, power, etc. I'm talking about an affair of the heart and mind.

Joy speaks so fondly of Emily Chalmers that I had learn more. I found out that she's authored (and co-authored) several books, one being Flea Market Style, which seems to come with rave reviews on all the book websites.
Flea Market Style is a beautiful book, it's not the typical flea read, where everything leans more on yee haw Country (roosters and plaid) or the all white Shabby Chic style. While it's hard to define the style, picture fresh cut flowers in a canning jar, on a metal folding table, in a Notting Hill flat with soaring ceiling, crown moldings, and a sweetly upholstered 19th century French Louis XV sofa against a soft blue wall, and there you have it. The photos are so gorgeous.
Books like this one are really helpful for those who may not have the eye to source amazing finds. I have friends who've accompanied me to Brimfield and they just don't get it. They don't have the vision to get excited about it. To them, it's all junk. I don't fault anyone for that because we all have talents in different areas. I've been going to fleas since I was a toddler (with my mother and grandparents), so although I can't couldn't compose music or write code to save my life, I can find potential scores at flea markets.
For a flea market junkie, this title offers plenty of styling ideas, and for those a bit overwhelmed by the thought of combing a huge market, helps them develop an eye for precious finds so the shopping experience becomes exciting. The more you look at pictures, attend fleas with friends who are savvy market shoppers, and my #1, have in mind exactly what you are looking for, the more beneficial your trip will be. The days of coming home, stressed and exhausted, opening your bag wondering what you were thinking, are over!
If you need any flea market tips, just ask. So many readers are complete junkies, I'm sure one of us can offer some advice. Once Spring comes, I'll post a list of some of the best flea markets to hit, look for that in mid March.
Pick up a copy of Flea Market Style on Amazon for $18 right here.

Public urged to take a stand against Cumbria parking meters
Last updated at 14:56, Tuesday, 08 July 2014
THE business community is being urged to give their opinions on controversial Cumbria street parking charges.
Cumbria County Council is set to install solar-powered parking meters on town centre roads later this year in a bid to raise cash for parking enforcement.
Members of Barrow Traders Association are appealing for views from both business owners and the public on the issue.
Association chairman Stuart Groundwater said information passed to him would be essential ahead of a planned walk around the town with the county council's local committee member for Barrow, Councillor Kevin Hamilton. He said existing feedback showed many shop owners and business people were completely opposed to the new roadside tariff over fears it could damage the economy of the town centre.
He said: "With time now short, it is imperative that members of the public and business domain share their views with us so we can take these comments to the council and try to get these meters stopped.
"We all need to show a strong sense of community when problems like this arise. The more people make a stand, the more our views will be listened to.
"Many business owners have said they may as well shut up shop which is really sad to hear."
The walk is set to go ahead within the next fortnight before the Barrow local committee members meet to vote on the proposals on Monday, July 14.
County council bosses claim the meters could be operational by the end of the year.
Anyone who would like to have their say on the issue is asked to email their opinions to email@example.com

Jack Kerouac's seminal Beat novel is better known for its descriptions of sex, drugs and endless road-tripping, but Kerouac's text is also laden with rich descriptions of food. As he ventures further west, his reliance upon apple pie and ice cream becomes more pronounced. Kerouac's paean to comfort food infuses holiness into an otherwise ordinary meal.

Iran president still a force even as his era ends
BIRJAND, Iran When many struggling families in this eastern Iranian city take stock of outgoing President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's legacy, it's not about the oratory full of bluster and menace or his tussles with Iran's ruling clerics that are known to much of the world.
What matters more here are the dusty rows of government-subsidized, two-story apartment buildings on the outskirts of the once-neglected outpost - testament to an effective populist outreach that has won the president millions of loyal backers in the provinces.
That support could give him influence beyond next month's election to pick his successor, underscoring how public opinion is relevant in Iran despite the heavy hand of clerical rule.
At first glance, Ahmadinejad may appear as a mostly spent political force. Damaging internal battles with the Islamic establishment over power and policies have left him so politically toxic in ruling circles that the possible leading candidates to replace him have all joined to ridicule his presidency.
But counting Ahmadinejad out grossly underestimates his most critical asset: A deep well of grateful and loyal supporters in hardscrabble places such as Birjand, a city of nearly 300,000 in wind-swept hills near the border with Afghanistan.
"May God bless Ahmadinejad," said Birjand taxi driver Ali Reza Farsi. "He is my hero."
EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the second story in an occasional series examining the June 14 Iranian election and the wider global and internal Iranian consequences at the end of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's era.
While Iran's theocracy holds many levers in the election, including vetting all candidates and deciding who appears on the final ballot, public opinion remains a legitimate force in Iran. It gave pro-reform President Mohammad Khatami a landslide re-election in 2001 and unleashed its fury after claims that vote fraud brought Ahmadinejad back for a second term four years ago.
Now, it's Ahmadinejad's backers who could rattle the system. No previous Iranian president has left office on such bad terms with the ruling clerics. A cozy landing for the 56-year-old leader in the inner circle or as an elder statesman is highly unlikely. This leaves Ahmadinejad with his big political ego and his still-significant political base.
"There is no doubt that an Ahmadinejad loyalist is a tough challenger no matter what," said prominent political analyst Saeed Leilaz. "Conservatives and reformists would have to fight an Ahmadinejad loyalist, who has strong supporters in small towns and rural areas."
His main goal has been to get his chief adviser, Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei, on the June 14 ballot. But the chances that his protege, whose daughter is married to Ahmadinejad's son, would be approved are sharply dimmed because of his messy power struggles with the clerics.
The relationship worsened in 2011 with a dispute over the choice of intelligence minister. The atmosphere became so divisive that Ahmadinejad boycotted government meetings for 11 days to protest being overruled by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has the final say in all critical affairs.

Re: Beating to windward
That is true for the Chesapeake Bay region, also. The Bay runs North to South. The winds are predominately light and out of the South during the summer, due to the Bermuda high.
If you wish to travel up or down the Bay, you will most likely be beating or running, with the occasional reach coinciding with a frontal passage or offshore tropical depression.
Rarely, however, will the wind be directly on the nose. Usually, there is a long tack to sustain hope, that if you can just be lifted a little, just a little, you will make it past that shoal/point/navaid/hazard, etc., and won't have to tack again and again.
Just to show how fickle cruising is, on my Delmarva circumnavigation, on the day following my best daylight day's run of 74 n.m. in 12 hours, Cape May to Still Pond, I had my worse day's mileage, beating directly into a light wind, against a foul current, past Poole's Island in a narrow portion of the Northern Bay, making it only from Still Pond to Rock Hall. It was still a much better day than almost any work day.

Do I Have Depression?
Topic Overview

Depression causes you to feel sad and hopeless much of the time. It's different from normal feelings of sadness, grief, or low energy. Depression is a medical problem that needs treatment. If you think you may be depressed, see your doctor for diagnosis and treatment right away. Untreated depression may get worse.

3 Food Traps to Avoid When You're Depressed
When you're struggling with depression, your eating habits often suffer. Some people overeat and gain weight, turning to food to lift their mood. Others find they're too exhausted to prepare balanced meals or that they've lost their appetite. "Whether you're overeating or not eating enough, you may be using food to feel better or to cope with difficult feelings," says Susan Albers, PsyD, a clinical psychologist at the Cleveland Clinic in Wooster, Ohio and author of 50 Ways to Soothe Yourself Without...
Read the 3 Food Traps to Avoid When You're Depressed article > >
You may have major depression if you have at least five of the symptoms listed below for 2 weeks or longer and one of the symptoms is either sadness or loss of interest. You may:
- Feel sad, hopeless, or empty. Others might have noticed that you appear sad or tearful.
- Lose interest in or not get pleasure from most daily activities.
- Lose or gain weight because of changes in how hungry you feel.
- Sleep too much or not enough.
- Feel restless and not able to sit still, or sit quietly and feel that moving takes great effort.
- Feel tired all the time.
- Feel unworthy or guilty for no reason. You may worry that people don't like you.
- Find it hard to focus, remember things, or make decisions.
A serious symptom of depression is thinking about death and suicide. If you or someone you care about talks about suicide or feeling hopeless, get help right away.
Learn the warning signs of suicide, which include talking a lot about death, giving things away, or using a lot of alcohol, drugs, or both. If you see these signs in yourself or a loved one, get help.
If you think you may have depression, take this short quiz to check your symptoms:
- Interactive Tool: Are You Depressed?
If you have fewer symptoms, you may still be depressed and need treatment. No matter how many symptoms you have, it's important to see your doctor. The sooner you get treatment, the better your chance for a quick and full recovery.
There are several types of depression that may have different symptoms and patterns. These include:
- Seasonal affective disorder (SAD). People who have seasonal affective disorder are depressed only at a certain time each year, usually in the fall and winter months.
- Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). Women who have regular and severe emotional and physical premenstrual symptoms that interfere with daily life may have PMDD. This is similar to premenstrual syndrome (PMS) but has symptoms that are more severe.
- Postpartum depression. Women who become depressed after the birth of a child may have postpartum depression.
- Dysthymic disorder (chronic mild depression) occurs when a person has only 2 to 4 symptoms of depression for a period of at least 2 years.
- Double depression. This occurs when a person with dysthymia also has an episode of major depression.
- Adjustment disorder with depression. Sometimes a stressful situation can cause temporary symptoms of depression that improve after the crisis is resolved.

29 CFR 825.121 - Leave for adoption or foster care.
(a) General rules. Eligible employees are entitled to FMLA leave for placement with the employee of a son or daughter for adoption or foster care as follows:
(1) Employees may take FMLA leave before the actual placement or adoption of a child if an absence from work is required for the placement for adoption or foster care to proceed. For example, the employee may be required to attend counseling sessions, appear in court, consult with his or her attorney or the doctor(s) representing the birth parent, submit to a physical examination, or travel to another country to complete an adoption. The source of an adopted child (e.g., whether from a licensed placement agency or otherwise) is not a factor in determining eligibility for leave for this purpose.
(2) An employee's entitlement to leave for adoption or foster care expires at the end of the 12-month period beginning on the date of the placement. If state law allows, or the employer permits, leave for adoption or foster care to be taken beyond this period, such leave will not qualify as FMLA leave. See§ 825.701 regarding non-FMLA leave which may be available under applicable State laws. Under this section, the employee is entitled to FMLA leave even if the adopted or foster child does not have a serious health condition.
(3) A husband and wife who are eligible for FMLA leave and are employed by the same covered employer may be limited to a combined total of 12 weeks of leave during any 12-month period if the leave is taken for the placement of the employee's son or daughter or to care for the child after placement, for the birth of the employee's son or daughter or to care for the child after birth, or to care for the employee's parent with a serious health condition. This limitation on the total weeks of leave applies to leave taken for the reasons specified as long as a husband and wife are employed by the same employer. It would apply, for example, even though the spouses are employed at two different worksites of an employer located more than 75 miles from each other, or by two different operating divisions of the same company. On the other hand, if one spouse is ineligible for FMLA leave, the other spouse would be entitled to a full 12 weeks of FMLA leave. Where the husband and wife both use a portion of the total 12-week FMLA leave entitlement for either the birth of a child, for placement for adoption or foster care, or to care for a parent, the husband and wife would each be entitled to the difference between the amount he or she has taken individually and 12 weeks for FMLA leave for other purposes. For example, if each spouse took six weeks of leave to care for a healthy, newly placed child, each could use an additional six weeks due to his or her own serious health condition or to care for a child with a serious health condition.
(4) An eligible employee is entitled to FMLA leave in order to care for an adopted or foster child with a serious health condition if the requirements of §§ 825.113 through 825.115 and 825.122(d) are met. Thus, a husband and wife may each take 12 weeks of FMLA leave if needed to care for an adopted or foster child with a serious health condition, even if both are employed by the same employer, provided they have not exhausted their entitlements during the applicable 12-month FMLA leave period.
(b) Use of intermittent and reduced schedule leave. An eligible employee may use intermittent or reduced schedule leave after the placement of a healthy child for adoption or foster care only if the employer agrees. Thus, for example, the employer and employee may agree to a part-time work schedule after the placement for bonding purposes. If the employer agrees to permit intermittent or reduced schedule leave for the placement for adoption or foster care, the employer may require the employee to transfer temporarily, during the period the intermittent or reduced leave schedule is required, to an available alternative position for which the employee is qualified and which better accommodates recurring periods of leave than does the employee's regular position. Transfer to an alternative position may require compliance with any applicable collective bargaining agreement, federal law (such as the Americans with Disabilities Act), and State law. Transfer to an alternative position may include altering an existing job to better accommodate the employee's need for intermittent or reduced leave. The employer's agreement is not required for intermittent leave required by the serious health condition of the adopted or foster child. See§§ 825.202-825.205 for general rules governing the use of intermittent and reduced schedule leave. See§ 825.120 for general rules governing leave for pregnancy and birth of a child. See§ 825.601 for special rules applicable to instructional employees of schools. See§ 825.802 for special rules applicable to airline flight crew employees.

Currently in my game, I have the character respawning back to life in the exact same spot at the start of the game. But lets say the character makes it midway of the game and dies. How do I get the character to respawn midway of the game?
Here is the script Im currently using for character respawn.
private var StartPos : Vector3; function Awake() { StartPos = transform.position; } function OnTriggerEnter(other : Collider) { if(other.gameObject.name == "fallout") { //RESPAWN! HealthGui.LIVES -= 1; StartPos.y += 4;
asked Jan 20, 2011 at 09:04 PM
add new comment (comments are locked)
Why don't you setup a midway trigger object, and when the character hits the trigger you can change the value of your Vector3 that is the start position to the position of the trigger object. This way you are effectively just moving the spawn point to the middle of the level instead of the beginning.
answered Jan 20, 2011 at 09:11 PM
agree with this one. Just make a checkpoint, with a script inside it that removes the activePt from the startingPoint.

#8 Alabama at #3 Georgia
Saturday, 7:45 pm Eastern – ESPN
SBG Global Opening Line: Georgia – 6 , Total 45
A Top-10 showdown between SEC teams is set for Saturday night on ESPN as #3 Georgia hosts #8 Alabama. Georgia started the season at number one, is still unbeaten, but has dropped to #3 in the polls. The Bulldogs continue to play well including a very impressive 27-10 road win at Arizona State last week. Heisman Trophy candidate Knowshon Moreno ran for 149 yards and two touchdowns. "I think we made a good statement," said freshman receiver A.J. Green, "We're from the SEC, the South boys. Everybody thinks our conference is so hard, so we just came out here and proved a point." This week is an even bigger test for Georgia as a talented Georgia squad visits.
"We are playing a great team – a top 10 team and one that is coached by one of the finest coaches in America," Georgia head coach Mark Richt said. "They have been tested, they just have whipped everybody so bad it didn't seem like they were."
SBG Global reports that early College Football betting has the public taking Alabama on the Road.
The Tide routed Arkansas last week 49-14 in a game that was never close.
The Tide have a good running back of their own in Glen Coffee who is averaging over 8 yards per carry this season. "We have one of the best offensive lines in the country," said Coffee.
Here is a look at the College Football betting stats for Saturday's game. The Crimson Tide are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The Crimson Tide are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. The Crimson Tide are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games on grass. The Crimson Tide are 2-6 ATS vs. a team with a winning record. The Crimson Tide are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 conference games.
SBG Global Current Line: Georgia – 6.5 , Total 45
The Bulldogs are 6-0 ATS vs. a team with a winning record. The Bulldogs are 5-0-1 ATS in their last 6 games on grass. The Bulldogs are 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 games in September. The Bulldogs are 6-0-1 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The Bulldogs are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 home games. The Bulldogs are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 conference games.
The Over is 6-2 in Alabama's last 8 conference games. The Under is 5-2 in Alabama's last 7 road games. The Over is 7-3 in Alabama's last 10 games in September. The Under is 23-7 in the Bulldogs last 30 games in September.

Issue with granular restore option SSR 2013 - not seeing any data on backups
Hi All, wondering if someone can help me.
I have been running backups for about a week now. At first all seemed good, I restored the base image to a new server and was able to perform a granular restore on e-mail. However, now that the backup has run several incrementals I have come into some trouble; when I select the sv2i file nothing appears in the granular restore window.
The backup seems to be fine and logs suggest the data backed up fine (even with verify enabled). Has anyone encountered this issue, not sure what has gone wrong. Many thanks
Comments 12 Comments • Jump to latest comment
Exchange 2010 + SP2 (and Outlook 2010) on the Domain Controller that SSR 2013 is installed on.
But I did upgrade Exchange 2010 from SP1 to SP2 after the base image was performed. I'm not sure if this would break things, but a bit concerning if it does because I do run updates once in a while.
Not sure if the upgrade from SP1 to SP2 would cause this or not.
Do you have another machine where you could try GRO on? It would need to be same bit-level as the Exchange server.
Something else you could try; run an independent backup (full only) to a new folder (assuming you have enough space). Then see if a GRO restore works from this backup.
Hi Chris,
I run an independent backup (fully only) to a different location. I then tried to open it with GRO and it worked fine?
Not sure what is going on here then, bit concerning if the updates will break my recovery point sets. Cheers.
Update on 11/02/2012 @ 00:04
Hey, I've now let my weekly fully recovery point set run to the original location and I have the same issue. Not sure what is going on here?
And there only seems to be one .sv2i. No idea how I can open different recovery point sets created earlier.
And there only seems to be one .sv2i. No idea how I can open different recovery point sets created earlier.
There will only be one .sv2i file if you are using the same destination folder.
Using GRO, you can select the relevant recovery point file by date (top-right corner within GRO).
Are you saying the newly created full backup shows the same issue?
Hi Chris,
That's correct.I try to open the latest .sv2i file and it sits there for a minute, then I get nothing. It doesn't freeze, just doesn't show any data.
My schedule runs a new full backup every Sunday, then incrementals throughout the week. If I look at the backup history I can see it has performed a full backup on Sunday (and the size of the backup looks correct)...But it doesn't show anything in GRO.
I can mount the backup fine as well, and the backups are verified.
I am about to try and full restore to a different PC to see if that works.
Update at 15:06
I am now running a restore (using the boot disc) to restore from the latest full backup. So far it is at 12% and seems to be working fine. It did throw up a message prior to beginning the restore though about the server being under heavy load during the backup, and something about enabling VSS quiescing (whatever that means - seems strange as I ran it at 00:30)
The restore using the boot disc has now finished. The latest backup has restored perfectly fine.
So I assume nothing is wrong with the restore point. Very confused.
Any thoughts? I am very lost...
Note: Well, all is working apart from the USB keyboard and mouse at the login screen. Same issue for PS2 mouse and keyboard as well, but both work fine prior to login screen
Update at 17:35
Okay, the keyboard and mouse is now finally recognised at the login screen. Wow, that tooks ages. I can only assume this is normal?
Otherwise, the restore works perfectly fine. So something is up with that GRO and I'm not sure...
I've been tested the restored backup for a few hours now, and it really doesn't seem clean.
Various services were stopped (DNS, DHCP and Exchange Information Store), and the database is in dirty shutdown state (checked this via eseutil, and it wouldn't mount in the Exchange Management Shell).
I am not sure if this is related to the GRO situation, but something doesn't seem quite right. The backup verified okay.
The only change since the succesful restore I ran last week is a few Microsoft updates and Exchange Server 2010 SP2 upgrade.
Hi Chris,
I started again with the backup. I ran a full recovery point set on 13 feb. I then tried to restore this and all was fine.
I then left the backup running via my schedule (incremental sets during last week and a new full set yesterday).
However, I have the same issue again this evening. GRO not showing the contents of the backup.
Sorry to butt in here, but I think you may be missing something.
That image is from Ghost 15, not SSR but I'm sure it's the same problem.
That means the image was made without volume shadow copy and would explain your statement " I've been tested the restored backup for a few hours now, and it really doesn't seem clean". Without VSS working correctly your not going to get a good image of files in use. I also don't understand why it says "High Load" it would be more informative to simply say VSS is busted.
It's usually due to a problem with one of the shadow copy providers, services, or a COM+ catalog problem.
You can verify this by creating a cold image from the recovery disk and comparing the "behaviour" of that restored image. (the shadow copy services and providers will work correctly from the recovery disk).
Best of luck,

Martial Law
martial law, temporary government and control by military authorities of a territory or state, when war or overwhelming public disturbance makes the civil authorities of the region unable to enforce its law. Martial law refers to rule by the domestic army only; the rule of occupied territory by an invading army is known as military government. During a war, a nation may invoke martial law in some or all of its territory as part of the war effort. Martial law is also applied in serious cases of internal dissension; the army authorities may take over the administrative and judicial functions, and civil safeguards (e.g., habeas corpus and freedom of speech) may also be suspended. Where the civil courts remain open, even if their orders are executed by the military, martial law is not applicable. In the United States the federal government is limited in applying martial law by the provision of Article 1, Section 9, Subsection 2, of the Constitution, which concerns the suspension of habeas corpus. In most U.S. states, martial law may be proclaimed when deemed necessary for the public's safety. However, the U.S. Supreme Court in ex parte Milligan (1866) ruled that military trial of civilians when the civil courts were functioning was unconstitutional. Martial law, which applies to all persons, civil and military, in the area is to be distinguished from military law, the system of rules of government applying only to those in military service.

This is a Divisional Application of Ser. No. 10/685,171 filed Oct. 13, 2003, now U.S. Pat. No. 7,186,645.
The invention generally relates to semiconductor packaging. More specifically, the invention relates to plating package terminals to improve terminal performance.
An integrated circuit (IC) is formed by processing a silicon or other semiconductor substrate. The processing creates semiconductor devices such as transistors, resistors, etc. on the substrate. The semiconductor die that results is typically very small and fragile. A semiconductor package encases the die, protecting the die and making it easier to handle. The package also includes a package substrate to direct power and signals to and from the die. The package substrate includes several terminals (or pads) on the bottom of the package to form external connections.
Several varieties of terminals are shown on the package 10. The signal pads 12 route signals to and from a die. The power pads 14 deliver power to the die. The ground pads 16 provide a ground for the die. Each of the different types of pads has different needs. For example, the signal pads 12 must deliver a clean signal. The power pads 14 and ground pads 16 need to tolerate high currents.
An immersion gold layer 20 is added to improve solder joint strength. A nickel layer, either the electroplated nickel layer 42 or the EL nickel layer 32, is added to prevent electromigration in the power and ground pads 14 and 16. The electroplated nickel layer 42 leaves stubs 44 which can affect signal integrity on signal pads 12. Further, the EL nickel layer 32 weakens the solder joints.
Described herein is a method and apparatus for selective plating of package terminals. In the following description numerous specific details are set forth. However, it is understood that embodiments may be practiced without these specific details. For example, well known equivalent materials may be substituted in place of those described herein and similarly, well known equivalent techniques may be substituted in place of particular semiconductor processing techniques disclosed. In other instances, well known structures and techniques are not shown in detail in order not to obscure the understanding of this description.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, different terminals (or pads) included in package substrates to form external connections are plated with different metals using different processes. Power and ground pads are electroplated with nickel to form a strong, electromigration resistant coating. However, the tie bars required for electroplating leave stubs, which may degrade signals. As a result, signal pads are not electroplated. If a land grid array (LGA) interconnect is used, an electroless (EL) nickel layer is deposited on the signal pads and the electroplated nickel layer on the power and ground pads. The EL nickel layer protects pads used in an LGA package from oxidation. After the nickel layer(s) have been added, an immersion gold layer deposited using a direct immersion gold (DIG) process is added to the exposed pads or layers, as the case may be. The immersion gold layer ensures good joint strength between the interconnects and the pads.
The pads 102, 104, and 106 are selectively plated using various metals to provide various benefits. The power and ground pads 104 and 106 first have an electroplated nickel layer 112 deposited on them. The electroplated nickel layer 112 provides electromigration protection while maintaining a strong solder joint between the pads 104 and 106 and the BGA or PGA interconnects. A tie bar stub 114 remains after the electroplating process is completed. After the electroplated nickel layers 112 are deposited, an immersion gold layer 116 is deposited on the signal pads 102 and on the electroplated nickel layers 112. The immersion gold layer 116 promotes strong solder joints. In one embodiment, the plated layers shown in
Only one side of the package substrates 100 and 150 is shown. This side may be, for example, the pads that connect with a BGA or other interconnect to a Printed Circuit Board (PCB). The package substrates 100 and 150 may also include pads to connect with flip chip or other interconnects to form a connection with a semiconductor die. The processes that plate the pads 102, 104, and 106 may also plate the pads that connect the package substrates 100 and 150 to semiconductor dies. The pads coupled to the semiconductor die would, as a result, have the same layers deposited thereon as the pads 102, 104, and 106. This may be advantageous, for example, to help protect against electromigration damage, which may be more likely to occur at the pads that connect with a semiconductor die. In
In block 206, tie bars are formed on the power and ground pads 304 and 306.
In block 208, nickel is electroplated on the power and ground pads 304 and 306.
In block 210, the tie bars 308 are removed.
In block 212, an immersion gold layer is deposited using a DIG process.
In block 214, interconnects are placed.
The package substrate 300 communicates with a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) 346. The PCB 346 may be a motherboard, daughterboard, etc. to which the die 342 is to be mounted. After the BGA interconnects 316 are attached to the package substrate 300, the package substrate 300 can be aligned on the PCB 346 and mounted. Once the package substrate 300 is placed on the PCB 346, the assembly is placed in a furnace, where it is heated to reflow the solder in the BGA interconnects 316 and form solder junctions.
The PCB 346 includes signal pads 348, power pads 350, and a ground pad 352 corresponding to the signal pads 302, power pads 304, and ground pad 306. For the same reasons the pads 302, 304, and 306 are plated, the pads 348, 350, and 352 are also plated. An electroplated nickel layer 354 is deposited on the power and ground pads 350 and 352. An immersion gold layer 356 is then deposited on the signal pads 348 and the electroplated nickel layers 354. As with the pads 302, 304, and 306, the pads 348, 350, and 352 are plated to improve signal quality, strengthen solder joints, and prevent electromigration. The process is finished in block 216.
In one embodiment, the package substrate 300 will also include pads to connect with the interconnects 344. These pads will be plated when the pads 302, 304, and 306 are plated. For example, the DIG process will deposit gold on exposed copper, including pads that connect with the interconnects 344. These pads may have the same layers, formed by the same processes, that are shown on the pads 302, 304, and 306 on the package substrate 300, and on the pads 348, 350, and 352 on the PCB 346. These pads are not shown in order to maintain clarity and not obscure the invention.
The process 500 starts in start block 502. In block 504, a semiconductor package having power delivery and signal pads is provided.
In block 510, the tie bars 608 are removed.
In block 514, an immersion gold layer is deposited using DIG.
The package 620 also shows a semiconductor die 624, which may be an IC such as a microprocessor, memory, ASIC, etc. As shown here, the die 624 is attached to the package substrate 600 using a flip chip configuration. The interconnects 626, which may be controlled collapse chip connections (C4s) or other flip chip interconnects are coupled to the pads 602, 604, and 606 through the vias 628. The vias 628 are shown in a very simple manner in order to not obscure the invention, however it is understood that any configuration of vias and planes in the package substrate 600 may be used. As mentioned above, the package substrate 600 may include pads to connect with the interconnects 626. These pads may also include nickel and gold plated layers, but are not shown in order to maintain clarity.
A method for selectively plating terminals and a package substrate is disclosed. In one embodiment, for example, when using a BGA or PGA interconnect, power and ground pads are selectively electroplated with nickel. After the power and ground pads are electroplated, all of the pads including the signal pads are plated with an immersion gold. The immersion gold improves joint strength, without affecting signal integrity. The electroplated nickel layer improves current carrying capability because of its resistance to electromigration, but affects signal integrity so it should only be used on power and ground pads. In another embodiment, for example when using LGA interconnects, a nickel layer is needed on all pads including signal pads to protect against oxidation. The nickel layer can be deposited on all the pads without using an electroplating method using an electroless plating method. Using the electroless plating method, no tie bar stubs are left and signal integrity is not compromised.
This invention has been described with reference to specific exemplary embodiments thereof. It will, however, be evident to persons having the benefit of this disclosure that various modifications and changes may be made to these embodiments without departing from the broader spirit and scope of the invention. The specification and drawings are accordingly to be regarded in an illustrative rather than in a restrictive sense.

It had everything that the modern world has, but quiet and laid back. That's it in a coconut shell!!
Quiet subdivision with little traffic. Not far from anything, but away from the hussle and bustle. whether for work or pleasure, it's right for all occasions
Dear Mike and Jacquie
Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality. It meant so much to come "home" rather than "back to a room" The extra touches were very much appreciated. Snacks, condiments, cold drinks, snorkel equipment, washer and dryer and so much more really added to the comfort of the experience. We loved the screened porch for morning coffee, listening to the symphony of bird songs, then at night the frogs would strike up the band! I recorded both so maybe we can recreated the experience back in icy Alaska It was a pleasure to stay here .. Thank you again for a lovely experience..
Mt two teenagers and I had a wonderful time in Hawaii. We spent three days on the Kona side and 4 days on the Hilo side of the island. (it wasn't long enough!) We want to come back as soon as we can. My kids have not stopped talking about it (even though it has been five months). Jacqueline had the place in perfect shape and she thought of everything! I would absolutely rent this home again. It was great!
Hale Sweet Hale was the perfect home for our family! It was located on the rainy side of the island but it didn't rain all the time and we still did everything we wanted to do. The house was super clean, had all the amenities of home including coolers, beach towels, and beach chairs, and the owner was easy to access. The owner greeted us with a phone call to be sure everything was as expected and we felt comfortable calling to say "Thanks" before we left the island. Pahoa is a quaint, little town with great restaurants. Day trips to Volcano National Park, Mauna Kea, tide pools, and South Point were all easy access from this home. The house even had snorkel equipment available to use at the tide pools. It was a wonderful home to return to after a day of hiking to the green sand beach and jumping off a 50ft cliff at South Point. We did so many things we never found time to cook on the BBQ grill that was available. The local grocery stores always had fresh poke, too! The decor of the home fit the Hawaiian theme and the flowers and fruit trees surrounding the property were wonderful. We have already recommended this house to friends that want a quiet, away from tourist and hotel noise place. The neighbors were great and we felt safe staying here. HomeAway and the owners of Hale Sweet Hale made our vacation fantastic and affordable.
Hale Sweet Hale was the absolute PERFECT place for our family to stay while exploring the Big Island! It is located on the lush, green, quiet, and beautiful Hilo side of the island, just minutes from the airport and town center. The neighborhood is so amazingly peaceful and wonderful too. We went just down the street to fish on the amazing rocky coast line and caught some grouper. At night, the tree frogs sing you to sleep with the most beautiful rainforest sounds...I've never fallen asleep faster or more peacefully! The home is perfectly appointed with ALL the essentials, and lots of extras. The owners have thought of everything, it truly is like being at home, yet in such a more beautiful setting. We stayed for 5 nights and wished we could stay longer. The home is perfectly clean, amazingly spacious and gave us everything we needed to do laundry, cook meals, relax, watch TV, whatever we wanted to do after a long day out touring the volcano. It's just a short drive to the visitor center at the top of the volcano too, much closer than those folks who chose to stay in Kona! We would never stay anywhere else if we returned to the Big Island and would tell our friends and family to stay here too, Hale is the best!
Stayed here for 9 nights while looking at property in the area. The house is great, so much nicer than a hotel. Everything you need is here, even a large DVD collection if you need to watch TV. Fresh fish on the BBQ every night, just drive a few miles to Pahoa to shop. Neighbor on one side only, very friendly. The sounds of the jungle at night were incredable, almost expect to see monkeys swinging thru the trees. The birds are the morning alarm clock.
Mike, you were great to deal with and the house is fantastic... I will be back.
There were four of us staying for two weeks. We found the home to be very clean, comfortable and lived up to its discription. It is in a quiet neighborhood and though you must drive eveywhere it is not an out-of -the-way location. The tide pools are within a 20 minute drive but I must admit we never did find that nude beach, much to our wives delight.
The owners are friendly,helpful and accomidating.
There is nearby snokeling and you are close enough Hilo to enjoy what the city has to offer.
We have recommended this home to our friends who want to spend some time in the Hilo area.
During our stay the weather was almost perfect with only one day of rain.
We hope to come back again someday and stay here when we do.
Hale Sweet Hale was our home away from home. The owners thought of everything that would be needed for a vacation home. It was neat, clean, and had a very warm, homey feeling the minute we walked in. And actually, the pictures on line didn't do the house justice. The only regret we had was that we didn't really get to enjoy the house as much as we would have liked due to trying to get to see everything on the Big Island. Our favorite place in the house was the lanai. What a place to relax! Pahoa is about a 30 minute drive from Hilo so if you don't mind the drive, Hale Sweet Hale is a wonderful home away from home. Mahalo.
Walk or take a short drive down the road and you will come to our beautiful ocean front park with picnic tables and lots of coconut palms. Enjoy the gorgeous ocean view and listen to the surf crashing on the lava rocks or watch the whales when they migrate here in the winter months to the Hawaiian waters. Five minutes away is the laid back town of Pahoa where the sidewalks are wooden. Here you will find our supermarket, gift shops and many restaurants from Thai, Mexican, Chinese, Italian, etc. of course we also have Subway, Burger King and KFC.
A 15-minute drive will bring you to the gorgeous Ahalnui Beach Park where you can soak and relax in the 90* geothermal heat tide pool while listening to the surf crashing on the other side. Some of the best snorkeling can be found at the tide pools in Kapoho just minutes from this home. Day trips include a visit to Volcanoes National Park, Waipio Valley, Kona and South Point. Check out the ZOO, Mac Nut Farm, ZIP Line or Farmers Market.
Other Activities: Neighborhood park over looking ocean, great for whale watching, kite flying, or just enjoying the weather and reading a good book. Don't forget to look out over the water to spy a Honu.
Golf: Several golf courses in the area. Pick and choose your level and just enjoy the great day on the greens. Does it really get any better than this,,,,I don't think so!
Ski: Believe it or not, if you come in Winter and your a ski nut, head to the top of the mountain and ski down a few hundred years. Have friend with 4x4 truck pick you up and take you back to the top. Bring down some snow and have a snowball fight on the beach.

The exception being Rockhold of course - I'd argue his wins over Maia and Munoz trump wins over Jacare and Kennedy but that's subjective. We won't really know until the latter compete against some top ten UFC competition.

@ Mr. Cornute,
How many of these WEC Champs got an immediate Title Fight when they came over after WEC was absorbed? I don't think your comparison of these 'situations' hold any water because, as I stated above, it is actually a completely different situation. The only similarity with this is that they were absorbed by the UFC. You can't necessarily dismiss the organization known as Pride, its fan-base, and what it stood for within that fan-base to compare these situations. Pride gave its fighters a heck of a lot more exposure/hype, even after its death, because of its legacy. This is what the UFC feeds off of to further hype and sell their fights. Strikeforce didn't come close to giving it's fighters this kind of exposure, even during its prime. So they can't be compared.
Some people are clearly fans of revisionist history. I am not amongst them.
P.S. Tell me you had a problem with the title unification bout between Henderson/Rampage. You likely won't because of Henderon's popularity amongst hardcore fans.

Anderson Silva:
Best Fighter on the planet.
I'm pretty sure rockhold has gone on record saying he wasn't ready for Anderson. While I believe weidman is the clear no 1 contender I think it would be in his best interest to have one more fight before Anderson. Did anyone else notice him in baders corner? He looked very.......doughy
As far as history, you're the one ignoring the fact that the vast majority of champs from other orgs didn't get the shot. WEC, Bellator, SF, it's been the same story every time. As S=E has said many times, Rockhold isn't a champ. His org is gone.
I'm fine with Rockhold getting the shot (largely because I think anyone, like Weidman, coming off a long injury needs to have one fight before title talks), but to say others on the forum are ignoring history on this matter is hilariously naive; you're clearly throwing out a huge amount of history yourself. And we've covered that, repeatedly.
You'd be crazy to think that Volkov would get the shot against Cain if he got signed, or M'Pumbu against Jones if he got signed. Askren, Chandler, and Curran actually have rankings to actually claim a shot.
Rockhold is an interesting position though. He would've definitely not gotten the title shot based on his ranking. However, a lot of contenders above him just got knocked off with a loss (including Bisping, Boetsch, Munoz), Vitor already lost to Anderson and Weidman is still injured. If Rockhold got the shot, he was just in the right place at the right time.
Rockhold vs Weidman then...winner gets Anderson.
by the way Rockhold gets smoked by Weidman
"...for he today who sheds his blood with me shall be my brother." William Shakespeare
"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it." Helen Keller
A lot of champions were in the WEC when that place folded and NONE of those guys got immediate title shots or were ever billed as champion vs champion. The only reason Henderson got that treatment was because at one point Pride was a legitimate contender. WEC and Strikeforce were never threats to the UFC.
But if there is a precedent to fall back on it is this: If you were a champion in an organization that Zuffa purchased and immediatley folded you might get a titleshot right away. If you were a champion of a non-UFC organization that Zuffa owned and ran for some period of time you will not get a titleshot.
That said, I'm on record as saying I could care less at this point whether Anderson fights Cung Le, Rockhold or Weidman. Just get that coward of a champion into the octagon to defend his belt more than once a year.
Hating on Anderson Silva before it was the cool thing to do.
The idea of a "true number one contender" is the stupidiest MMA idea to be perpetuated by fans and media, EVER.
HATES the new MMANEWS forum. Bring back the dark background.
