PH Azkals up 4-0 over Cambodia behind Phil Younghusband's first half hattrick
More News from Mark Giongco
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines—Phil Younghusband needed only nine minutes to score a hattrick.
Younghusband shone for the Philippines anew as it led the Azkals to a 4-0 lead over Cambodia in the first half of Group E Qualifying of the AFC Challenge Cup at the Rizal Memorial Football Stadium Sunday night.
Younghusband started off his scoring binge with a short strike inside the box in the 25th minute before coming through anew six minutes after on a curler.
With Cambodia struggling to get into any groove, Younghusband pounced on the visitors with a header in the 34th minute before assisting on a goal by Fil-Spanish Javier Patino.
With four goals in, the Azkals put themselves on track to match if not eclipse Turkmenistan's 7-0 win over Cambodia last Friday.
The match was interrupted with a power outage late in the first half with the official time stopping at 45:11.

The 'Linux Inside' Stigma 366
Posted by Soulskill

from the someday-they'll-even-come-up-with-a-linux-phone dept.
New submitter dtschmitz highlights the success of the Google Chromebook to underscore what, in his view, is a serious Linux brand image problem. "It's remarkable how Google doesn't mention the word Linux anywhere in their marketing of the Google Chromebook. I mean, it's running the Linux Kernel, so shouldn't it be Google Linux instead of ChromeOS? Why did Google carefully avoid references to Linux? It's all a very carefully crafted, well executed plan of elegant branding and image making. ... The profile of this user is that of someone who really doesn't care anything about the technical underpinnings of a device. They are not sophisticated technophiles by any means. They have a set number of things which they wish to do--recreational surfing, banking, email, an occasional letter, not complicated. ... Google didn't mention Linux because they know it will scare buyers away. That's unfortunate, but true. And we need to come to terms with that fact and work towards improving the 'Linux Inside' brand image.

Got Questions? We've got answers from experts and parents who've been there.
Why doesn't my 6-week-old son look into my eyes?
Your child is able to see pretty clearly at a distance of 10-14 inches by the time he is 6 weeks old. Most young infants will look at their caregiver during feedings and other times when they are being held close. Young infants are not able to see you across the room clearly, although they may respond to the sound of your voice. Most do not maintain eye contact for more than a few seconds to half a minute before they look at other things. If your infant does not appear to make eye contact at all, visit the pediatrician to ensure that there are no problems with his vision.
The answers from our experts are for educational purposes only. Please always refer to your child's pediatrician and mental health expert for more in-depth advice.

Sanders proposes huge library, parks cuts
Budget protects public safety, would leave big deficit to be closed next year
The City Council, which has final budget approval, will consider the plan at public hearings over the next few weeks and several members have already indicated they are troubled with what they consider harsh cuts to parks and libraries.
Councilman David Alvarez, who represents several poorer neighborhoods in southern San Diego, said he has constituents who rely heavily on libraries for Internet access and recreation centers for sports. His first reaction was "wow" when told of the cuts.
"It very much is painful to learn that he's proposing to cut parks and proposing to cut libraries, two very vital services to the residents of communities like mine that really utilize their libraries and parks," Alvarez said.
The proposed budget calls for the elimination of a combined 154 positions — some vacant, some not — in the parks and library departments. Recreation centers would be reduced from 40 to 20 hours per week along with the elimination of several programs. Branch libraries would see hours cut from 36 to 18 hours per week, leaving them open two days a week and every other Saturday.
Valorie Matthews, 65, a retired debt collector who lives four blocks from the Allied Gardens/Benjamin branch library, criticized Sanders for focusing on large civic projects, such as a new Chargers stadium, rather than finding ways to fund critical services like libraries.
"What do you expect from a man who puts football stadiums ahead of the children of San Diego?" she said. "Part-time libraries are for part-time intellects of which we have so many at City Hall. ... All I have ever hear is San Diego wants to be a world-class city. World-class city with libraries open two days a week? That's disgusting."
The city's budget has been squeezed over the past decade after previous city leaders chose to grant enhanced retirement benefits for workers while also underfunding the pension system. Those moves, coupled with a subsequent economic recession, have led to a $2.1 billion pension deficit that requires increasing annual payments that eat up a greater portion of the city's budget each year.
The current pension payment saps roughly $178 million — a total that peaks at $360 million in 2025 if actuarial projections hold — from the $1.1 billion operating budget, the discretionary portion of the city's overall $2.75 billion budget. The recent increases in that payment have left less and less money for other services such as public safety, parks and libraries.
The financial squeeze led city leaders to enact a "brownout" policy last year that called for the idling of up to eight fire engines per day to save money on firefighter overtime to help close a $179 million gap. Sanders has also chopped more than 1,400 positions from the budget — a total that will grow to 1,671 if his current plan is adopted — since he took office in 2005.
The brownouts would be gradually phased out by Jan. 1 under the mayor's plan, but public safety would still endure cuts as Sanders has proposed eliminating 20 vacant positions for sworn police officers, among other reductions in the police department.

Though highly-praised by readers when it hit our front page back in March, Nameluss' first feature – which found the emcee gushing about the deep spiritual connection he shares with his girl – may have led some to pigeonhole the Grindworkz ENT emcee as "soft." Mixtape inclusion Underground King, which finds the artist spitting aggressive lyrical fire over the gritty production of Hala X, should dispel all doubts. Fans can keep it locked for the latest details on Nameluess' yet-untitled, yet-unscheduled forthcoming mixtape.

Massachusetts appears to have followed California's lead in opening a litigation floodgate over ZIP code collection at the point of sale. In 2011, the California Supreme Court held in Pineda v. Williams-Sonoma Stores, Inc., 246 P.3d 612 (Cal. 2011), that a retailer illegally collects personal identification information ("PII") when it requests and records ZIP codes from customers paying by credit card. More than 240 class action lawsuits followed.
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court's recent opinion in Tyler v. Michaels Stores, Inc. (No. SJC-11145) could bring a similar wave of litigation. The Tyler opinion strongly suggests retailers operating in Massachusetts should end the practice of collecting ZIP codes during credit card transactions, and foreshadows future litigation based on this practice. Like the Pineda court, the Massachusetts Supreme Court concluded that a ZIP code constitutes PII under Massachusetts's credit card PII statute, G.L. c. 93, § 105(a) ("the Credit Card law"). More important for retailers, however, is the Court's ruling that a plaintiff may bring an action for violation of privacy rights absent identity fraud. This ruling could make Massachusetts the next venue for an explosion of "ZIP code" litigation, and, as we note below, provide reason for retailers to review PII collection policies nationwide.

VANCOUVER, Wash. The Director of a unique non-profit woodworking ministry is retiring. Reverend Duane Sich started Friends of the Carpenter 15 years ago in his garage. Now it occupies a large building near downtown Vancouver called The Friendship Center.
With the help of volunteers and staff, it has helped thousands of homeless people or others who need support, by building relationships in the woodshop.
Everyone s accepted. Everyone loves being here, whether you come from a comfortable setting in a car or a nice home or you were outside last night, once you re in this building, everybody belongs, said Sich.
Sam Abron has been coming to The Friendship Center for about seven months, learning woodworking skills and getting support.
All these things are learned as you have hands on. It s one of the great things about being at the center, because it gives us a safe place, said Abron.
Sich retires at the end of the month. Tom Iberle, a longtime ministry leader, will take over the Director position. And Sich hopes in retirement he will have more time to return as a volunteer, and do wood work in the shop.
I ve always loved ministry, I ve never felt like I had to go to work. It s been a joy and a privilege to serve, but here it has just been fun. It s been fun to come to work every day in this humble, modest place, said Sich.
Friends of the Carpenter sells its wood products to the public, but mainly relies on donations and volunteers to run its operations. The Friendship Center is located at 1600 West 20th Street in Vancouver.

German scientists who reviewed more than 100 published studies found that a CT scan is more sensitive and accurate than MRI in identifying people suffering from coronary artery disease. A radiology professor said the study "holds no surprises whatever" and added that the imaging techniques should not be considered rivals in medical practice because a CT scan is used to assess heart arteries while MRI is used to look at cardiac muscles.

SkiMotion scooter propels you forward with groin power

If there's a new way to apply manual power toward motivating a set of scooter or bicycle wheels, someone will think of it.

BMW unveils the C evolution electric scooter
July 29, 2012
BMW Motorrad has been busying itself perfecting an electric scooter design for some time now and, following the early prototype E Scooter we first reported on last year, and the more fully formed Concept e model which popped up a few months later, the company has now unveiled a new "near-production" electric scooter named the BMW C evolution which boasts a reported 100 kilometers (62 miles) range from one full charge and some impressive styling to match.

Ben Katz has spent the last few months ripping apart and reassembling an old kick scooter to build what he describes as an all-terrain electric scooter. He's mixed in bits and pieces from robotics projects and mountain bikes, supersized the wheels, created custom shocks, built a novel disc brake, and added lots of aluminum to make a pretty sweet ride. He still has a few finishing touches to add but it's ready to roll, as you can see in the video after the jump. Read More

Dual-mode transport - the trend accelerates
By Mike Hanlon
April 30, 2012
Auto China is probably the most influential automobile show in the world at present. China now produces and consumes more cars than any other nation, so its needs will heavily influence personal transport globally in coming decades. Some early trends are emerging as to what we'll see, and as congestion in China increases and parking centrally becomes prohibitively expensive, a car will increasingly only get you part of the way to your destination. Geely and BMW both showed cars with inclusive last-mile transport at Auto China, but the number of last mile Transportation Appliance options under development by auto manufacturers is growing rapidly.

After years in development, Sway Motorsports has unveiled a prototype of its tilting three-wheel electric scooter, one with a rather sportier bent than the tilting electric three-wheelers we've seen before, such as Sidam's Xnovo. And though this is a relatively low-powered machine, judging from the videos this thing isn't without agility and zip. Clearly the Sway is pitched squarely at the leisure market. Read More
Yamaha Thailand showed an interesting concept bike in Bangkok earlier this week. It's a scooter, but it has been ruggedized, given higher quality and longer travel suspension, extra luggage facility with provision for much more, and a vastly strengthened frame. Thailand's floods led to calls for a scooter with greater off-road capability, and Yamaha has delivered something that just might catch on. Most of the world's scooter sales are in countries where unmade roads make up a significant proportion of the road network and road conditions are the speed limit. The base scooter used in the TTX Adventure is the new Yamaha TTX 115i, a scooter with a fuel injected 115cc motor with a sporting bent. Read More
In November 2011, the City of Bordeaux in France began a special consultation with its citizens. In an exercise that could easily have created a Homer mobile, participants were asked to make suggestions on what they would like to see included in the design of a new town bike. Over 300 citizens shared their ideas, which designer Philippe Starck has now used as the inspiration for what has been provisionally called the City PIBAL Streamer - an eye-catching concept where riders can opt to sit and pedal like on a traditional bike, or stand on the platform and use like a scooter.

BOXX electric scooter looks sort of like a rideable suitcase
By Eric Mack
January 31, 2012
Oregon-based BOXX's first production electric scooter is just about a meter (39 inches) long and looks like an odd sort of cross between a piece of retro luggage and a giant-sized camera. It promises to move you up to 80 miles on a single charge at a top speed of 35 mph (56 km/h) and comes with a price tag starting just under US$4,000. Read More
Mountainskyver lets hikers scoot down from mountain tops
By Ben Coxworth
December 13, 2011
Zipping down the side of a mountain on a downhill mountain bike can be incredibly fun, but getting the bike up there ... well, you can pedal the 40 to 50-pound thing to the top yourself, pay to use a zero-exercise chair lift, or add to your bike's weight with an electric-assist motor. In an approach we've seen before in the form of the Mountain Monk, German gear company ORTOVOX is offering another way to get to the summit and back down again. It's called the Mountainskyver TRAIL, and it's a folding downhill scooter(?) that a hiker carries to the mountaintop in an included custom backpack, then quickly assembles and rides back down.

Problem with Nforce2 Sound on Suse 8.1
I wonder if anyone can help me with this problem - I've been all over these forums and can't see anything that quite matches. I'm running the Nforce2 that's in the recent shuttles, and I've downloaded the unified nvidia driver and the graphics one. The accelerated graphics works fine, as does the network card, now I'm just trying to get sound to work.
When I try to configure in Yast2, it just tells me that an error occurred. I'm a bit of a linux newbie, but I read what others were doing so I tried
insmod i810_audio:
Using /lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o
/lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o: unresolved symbol ac9 7_probe_codec
/lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o: unresolved symbol ac9 7_set_dac_rate
/lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o: unresolved symbol ac9 7_set_adc_rate
I tried insmod nvaudio and I get something similar:
Using /lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/kernel/drivers/sound/nvaudio.o
/lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/kernel/drivers/sound/nvaudio.o: unresolved symbol ac97_probe_codec
/lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/kernel/drivers/sound/nvaudio.o: unresolved symbol ac97_set_dac_rate
/lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/kernel/drivers/sound/nvaudio.o: unresolved symbol ac97_set_adc_rate
I don't know where all these unresolved symbols are coming from - I just installed the binary suse rpm from the nvidia web site.
On a side note, I spotted that that rpm was supposed to give instructions on how to configure IDE and USB, but I can't find anything on that. I don't know if this is relevant, but I get errors regarding agpgart as well.
Thanks for any help.

Jigme Lingpa

Jigme Lingpa (1729–1798) was a tertön of the Nyingma sect of Tibetan Buddhism.[1] He was the promulgator of the Longchen Nyingthik, the Heart Essence teachings of Longchenpa, from whom, according to tradition, he received a vision in which the teachings were revealed. The Longchen Nyingthik eventually became the most famous and widely practiced cycle of Dzogchen teachings. Namkha'i and Shane (1999: p. 135) affirm that Jigme Lingpa wrote a treatise on the spiritual and medicinal usage of crystals and gems of principal importance.[2]
Prefiguring Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Thaye's creation of the Five Collections, Jigme Lingpa gathered Nyingma texts that had become rare, starting with Nyingma tantras held in the manuscript collection of the Mindrolling Monastery. This collection of the Nyingma tantras led to the amassing of the 'Collection of Nyingma Tantras', the Nyingma Gyübum (Wylie: rNying-ma rgyud-'bum) for which Getse Mahapandita wrote the catalogue, proofread and arranged for its printing by soliciting the expensive and labour-intensive project of carving the wood blocks for the block printing. The wood block carving was forded through the patronage of the 'Derge' (Wylie: sDe-dge[3]) Royal Family of Kham who favoured and honoured Jigme Lingpa.[4] Getse Mahapandita also arranged for the printing of texts by Jigme Lingpa and Longchenpa. Getse Mahapandita proof read these works of Jigme Lingpa, Longchenpa and the Nyingma Gyübum.[4]
Jigme also wrote a nine-volume history of the Nyingma Vajrayana and other works. His non-sectarian presentation of Madhyamika (Middle Way view) follows Tsongkhapa's system.
A major precursor of the Rime (Tib. ris med) movement, Jigme Lingpa had many distinguished disciples in all four lineages. The first Dodrupchen Rinpoche, Dodrupchen Jigme Trinle Ozer, became his main lineage-holder. Among those held by tradition to be Jigme Lingpa's reincarnations are Do Khyentse Yeshe Dorje (mdo mkhyen brtse ye shes rdo rje) (his mind-emanation), Patrul Rinpoche (speech-emanation) and Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo (body-emanation). In Bhutan his tradition is held by successive incarnation of Padtselling Trulku and Yongla Jigme Kuendrel. [1] Both First Padtselling Truku Drupthob Namgyal Lhendup. [2] (1718-1786) and Second Padtselling Trulku Jigme Tenpai Gyaltshen. [3](1788-1850) were student of Jigme Lingpa.
Jigme Lingpa, rendered in English by Sam van Schaik, states how his learnings commenced and he mentions grammar, Samye Chimpu,[5] vajra, Longchenpa:
I began with the study of grammar, and whatever vajra topics I came across, such as the Conqueror's scriptures and the treatises which clarify their intention, texts on conventional definitions and instructions on the true nature. Although I seized on them with veneration, apart from a few good imprints which inspired me to study in the brightness of day and under lamplight, I had no opportunity to increase my knowledge in a relationship with a teacher, even for a single day. Then in dPal-gyi bSam-yas mChims-phu, I met three times with the wisdom-body of Klong-chen-pa, and through being blessed with various auspicious symbols, my karmic connections were awakened from out of The Great Perfection.[6][7]
Gyatso (1998: p. 140) in mentioning Kumararaja, Ganachakra, Gurkha war, beer and black magic states that:
Jigme Lingpa's Nyingma affiliations led sometimes to his participation in the sort of tantric activities that have long been criticized by more conservative Buddhists. He was himself ambivalent about some of these activities:...he regretted the black magic he performed during the Gurkha war. Jigme Lingpa even admits that the ancient ordinance of Lha Lama Shiwa O and Changchub O, which famously censured the indulgences of Nyingma practitioners, might have been merited. And yet he reports with a certain pleasure taking part in a drunken communal feast (gaṇacakra) or being given beer at the house of the Nyingma master Kumārarāja (1266-1343) and doing "a dance of bliss-emptiness integrated."[8]
When explaining the transmission and reception of the 'treasures' (Tibetan: terma) of the 'The Words of the Omniscient One' (Wylie: kun mkhyen zhal lung) and 'The White Lotus' (Wylie: rgyab brten padma dkar po) Jigme Lingpa makes reference to an admixture of 'mindstream' (Wylie: [b]rgyud), 'Absolute [Truth]' (Wylie: don) and 'adhishthana' (Wylie: byin rlabs) and van Schaik (2004: p. 45) has rendered the Tibetan in English as follows : "the blessing of the truth-continuum" (Wylie: don brgyud byin rlabs), "the blessing of the continuum" (Wylie: rgyud byin gyi rlabs), and "the transmission-blessing of symbols and words" (Wylie: brda tshig gi byin brgyud).[9]
Longchen Nyingthig[edit]
Jigme Lingpa was a reincarnation of two important masters, Vimalamitra and King Trisong Deutsen.[10] As the embodiment of these two figures, Tibet's two primary Dzogchen lineages were combined in him—the Vima Nyingthik and Khandro Nyingthik, both of which are contained in the Nyingthik Yabshi. Hence, the Longchen Nyingthig terma cycle is considered a condensation of these profound teachings.
The texts that were revealed by Jigme Lingpa, in their present-day form, comprise three volumes, known as the Nyingthig Tsapod (Wylie:snying thig rtsa pod). The numerous treatises, sadhanas and prayers it contains deal primarily with tantric practice, in particular the 'stages of Development' (Tibetan: kye-rim) and Dzogchen.
Jikmé Lingpa discovered the Longchen Nyingtik teachings as mind ter at the age of twenty-eight. Tulku Thondup writes:
- In the evening of the twenty-fifth day of the tenth month of the Fire Ox year of the thirteenth Rabjung cycle (1757), Jikmé Lingpa went to bed with an unbearable devotion to Guru Rinpoche in his heart; a stream of tears of sadness continuously wet his face because he was not in Guru Rinpoche's presence, and unceasing words of prayers kept singing in his breath.
- He remained in the depths of that meditation experience of clear luminosity for a long time. While being absorbed in that luminous clarity, he experienced flying a long distance through the sky while riding a white lion. He finally reached a circular path, which he thought to be the circumambulation path of Jarung Khashor, now known as Boudhanath Stupa, an important Buddhist monument of giant structure in Nepal.[11]
In this vision, the wisdom dakinis gave Jikmé Lingpa a casket containing five yellow scrolls and seven crystal beads. One of the scrolls contained the prophetic guide of Longchen Nyingtik, called Nechang Thukkyi Drombu. At the instruction of a dakini, he ate the yellow scrolls and crystal beads, and all the words and meaning of the Longchen Nyingtik terma were awakened in his mind.
Jikmé Lingpa kept this terma secret for years, and he did not even transcribe the terma until he entered another retreat in which he had a series of visions of Longchen Rabjam. Tulku Thondup explains:
- In the earth-hare year (1759) he started another three-year retreat, at Chimpu near Samye monastery. During that retreat, because he was inspired by three successive pure visions of Longchen Rabjam, and he was urged by repeated requests of dakinis, he transcribed his terma as the cycle of Longchen Nyingtik. On the tenth day of the sixth month (monkey month) of the monkey year (1764) he made his terma public for the first time by conferring the transmission of empowerment and the instructions upon fifteen disciples.[12]
The Loud Laugh of the Dakini (Tibetan: mkha' 'gro'i gad rgyangs) is a Chöd sadhana from the Longchen Nyingthig cycle of terma teachings revealed by Jigme Lingpa.[13]
Jigme Lingpa is also renowned for his autobiographical works, primarily his outer autobiographies found in his nine-volume "Collected Works" alongside his "Heart Sphere" cycle and other historical works. Most notably, his autobiographical works showed the dynamics of relationships between Tibetan Buddhist visionaries and lay political figures.[1]

Singles Sticks
Played a singles match for my USTA team the other day - we were playing away at an upscale private club. Prior to our arriving there, they had put up singles sticks on the two courts designated for the singles lines. I thought that was a nice touch, since honestly I can't remember when last I saw singles sticks in use for league play.
So... how common is it to find them used in leagues? Do you have them in place for your home matches?
I don't play League tennis anymore, but when I did, we played our home matches at a college that had singles sticks and they let us use them.. We were the only team in the league that used them.
I have a question about singles sticks.
My partner and I warmed up as usual, and I was to serve first. I started double-faulting my head off. Just could not get the serve over the net. It was a long game, and I eventually held. Then I noticed that the singles sticks were still in.
Could this have had anything to do with the double-faults? Does it change the height of the net compared to a doubles net?
'Cause I blamed it on the singles sticks!
Is it high enough to make a difference in recreational play? Maybe...Maybe not.....I think it was probably more psychological than anything else......
(The netposts are where the singles sticks would go, just like the ones you see on TV)
However they also dont have doubles alleys which freaks out a lot of people because it looks strange.
Singles sticks would raise the net over the singles sideline, but it wont raise it much near the center. (since the center strap holds the net down to the proper height) Maybe it would affect a serve if it was on an extreme angle.
What I find in some official tournaments is that the nets are usually at the exact proper height but they seem high if we're used to playing on outdoor public courts where very few nets are at the proper height.
Javier, why have singles nets on a court with alleys? Are they removable to put in a doubles net?
I think they realized if they wanted to put in 7 courts, they were going to run out of room in the first place so they decided to make two of the courts like that to save space. (they needed 7 courts for HS tennis)
The height of the net is still 36" at the center-strap when using singles sticks. However, the net height is 42" at the location of the sticks.
Does anyone know the correct placement of the single sticks?
Haha I want to know. don't YOU know that ;) :)
But for real, I really to want to know.
Anyway, the sticks are placed 3 feet outside of the singles sidelines.
yup 36" from the singles sidelines, also if playing with sticks if the ball hits the net between the sticks and the net post the ball is "out"
Sutter Lawn's center court in Sacto is lined for singles only and SFTC had one on their roof but not anymore.
I'm always amused by those spending several minutes pre-match tweaking the net strap the .001" as if their entire game depended on it. Never do I see them measure the net post or check overall cord tension where significant differences can be found (not as if much could be done.)
Serves cross the net from the middle to perhaps 1/4 way to sidelines; where singles sticks have virtually no impact.
I made my own from 2 x 2's. Cut a 1 inch notch at the top and painted them green. Easy peasy.

Milan fans are furious over the squad's massive clearout this summer.
"It's true, our team has changed, it has become younger," the Ghanaian midfielder told Milan Channel.
"Before, there were great, established champions here, and now we have the task of showing the Coach [Allegri] that we're here to accomplish things.

As of Monday, March 4, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
ALBANY, Ga. -- As part of a senate Democratic initiative to promote better educational solutions in Georgia, four state senators and a representative held a public hearing Saturday at Alice Coachman Elementary school.
The State Senate Special Task Force on Education included Sens. Freddie Powell-Sims, D-Dawson; Jason Carter, D-Decatur; Gail Davenport, D-Jonesboro; Valencia Seay, D-Riverdale; and Rep. Winfred Dukes, D-Albany, and discussed issues concerning the state's education issues with emphasis on Southwest Georgia.
"We are here to carry your concerns back to Atlanta," Carter, the grandson of former President Jimmy Carter, told the gathering. "I come from eight generations of south Georgians' and I have concerns about education in what Sen. Sims calls rural Georgia."
Not surprisingly, much of the 90-minute discussion centered on K-12 school funding woes.
"We want to focus on rural Georgia," Sims said. "I know Albany is not rural but the funding issues that affect Baker, Calhoun and Quitman counties also affect Albany. It is incumbent upon us to help each other out. We want to work just as hard for the Rs as we do for the Ds."
The panel pointed to 10 straight years of cuts in QBE (Quality Basic Education) funding they say have hobbled K-through-12 education in south Georgia. Shrinking QBE funding, money the state provides districts each year for education, began with austerity cuts in 2002-03 and have dwindled each fiscal year since until this past legislative session.
"We've introduced legislation to fully restore QBE funding," Seay said. "We don't think it will go anywhere, but we'll just have to do the best with what we've got."
Audience member asked the panel about the effects that sequestration would have on area schools.
"The dysfunction in Washington is baffling to me," Carter answered. "We have serious budget issues in this state. We have people calling for smaller government, and that's fine, but it must also be effective government. We have shifted the financial burden for education to the districts and that's not right.
"The problem with the current leadership (in Atlanta) is funding with accountability."
Johnnie Hammond of Albany then brought up the possible closure of two schools (Sylvester Rd. Elementary and Dougherty Middle) on Albany's eastside.
"I don't know if you can help us with this problem, but I thought I would ask anyway, she said."
"The reality is that Dougherty County has been losing population each year," Powell-Sims said. "Nobody wants schools closing in their area, but it's probably going to happen.
Second Mt. Zion Pastor Theodus Drake Jr. then spoke up.
"I am all for funding education," Drake said. "but as a taxpayer I don't want to be paying for empty classrooms. My affection for our schools is strong, but my affection for my wallet is stronger.
"We really don't have a choice (to close two schools). The sooner the better."
Powell-Sims then suggested Hammond express her concerns to the Dougherty County School Board.
"Schools are big business, always follow the money," Powell-Sims said. "Ask yourself are my tax dollars being spent wisely. It all starts at the local level."
Carter says much of the blame of the current financial problems lies with policy makers in Atlanta.
"No one at the state level is pushing for educational policy changes," Carter said. "The first thing they'll tell you is that 'there is no money.' Well, that's just an excuse."
Dukes agreed.
"They have demonized public education," Dukes said. "Yet we are seeing gains in education despite it being under attack."
"We are there (Atlanta) to fight for the people," said Davenport.

"We want to focus on rural Georgia," Sims said. "I know Albany is not rural . . ." Brother, If Albany ain't rural then grits aint groceries.
Okay, Freddie, I see ya' in them soft leather cowgirl boots. Now where'd ya park that full length mink coat? What? Ya' left it in Atlanta?
Carter: "The first think(sic) they'll tell you is that 'there is no money.' Well, that's just an excuse." Works for me. Seems to work for most everybody who is fiscally responsible except you and Ivy Hines. I don't hear much out of this group about how local school boards spend money witlessly and families don't throw in with the hard working teachers.
Trustbuster 2 years, 2 months ago
The concern I have as taxpayer and a parent is the waste in bureaucracy. I wrote about this issue to Herald years ago before all the budget shortfalls started. Now with the sequestration more cuts will be coming. When you have time look at how many school board positions are funded locally and by the state.
FryarTuk 2 years, 2 months ago
" . . . look at how many school board positions are funded locally and by the state." And with the teachers desperate for resources in their rooms holding up to 35 students. Resources need to be re-directed to the point of teaching-learning.
bennydawg 2 years, 2 months ago
What a joke this is. Why do dems think that pouring money at things is an automatic fix??
I think if Georgia would just bring approporiate discipline back into the schools (remember how awful a feeling it was to think the principal was going to paddle you) and implement a rule that if you drop out of school you must work for the state for free until you are 18 or go into the military to dig ditches until you are 18. I know that will never happen, but it makes alot more sense than having them go to jail which usually happens. Have those that are too cool for school learn a job skill....turns them into asset rather than a liability.
chinaberry25 2 years, 2 months ago
Randolph Co. said it all. You get a bonus if the kids do not learn by all the money rolling into the schools from Title I. If you pass CRCT you get a pizza and no money. Teachers never get a dime to use in the classrooms. Why would anyone fresh out of college ever want to be a teacher is beyond me. Too much money in the private sector.
Cartman 2 years, 2 months ago
So what was the point? Democrats who constitute a minority in the Georgia legislature band together to note that funding is tight for schools?
A clueless person said, "The first thing they'll tell you is that 'there is no money.' Well, that's just an excuse."
"They have demonized public education," an idiot said. "Yet we are seeing gains in education despite it being under attack."

The only local legislative person who speaks reason to purpose is Rep. Carol Fullerton and she wasn't even invited. Carter should have his but kicked for letting that happen. The Fullertons busted their humps for his grandfather. Dukes or Freddie Whatshername couldn't put food on their tables if it wasn't for public money. They damned sure don't know how to do anything for this community to make it prosperous. And as for education in Dougherty County they have been part of the problem.

From a Law-Enforcement Veteran, Common Sense About Dealing with Immigrants
Why is it a bad idea for local law enforcement agencies to act as immigration cops? Because it undermines public safety.
William J. Bratton, chief of the Los Angeles Police Department, explains why in this op-ed essay that ran last week in the Los Angeles Times. He also explains his decision not to have the Los Angeles Police Department participate in the program known as 287(g), which gives local law enforcement agencies the powers of federal immigration agents by entering into agreements with Homeland Security's Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE.
"Americans want a solution to our immigration dilemma, as do law enforcement officials across this nation," Bratton writes. "But the solution isn't turning every local police department into an arm of Immigration and Customs Enforcement."
Bratton brings to the immigration debate a few things the immigrant-bashers lack, namely credibility and a track record. As he prepares to step down as LAPD chief, he is drawing praise from officers, politicians and the public for reducing crime — in a city with a huge immigrant population.
"Keeping America's neighborhoods safe requires our police forces to have the trust and help of everyone in our communities," he writes. "Yet every day our effectiveness is diminished because immigrants living and working in our communities are afraid to have any contact with the police. A person reporting a crime should never fear being deported, but such fears are real and palpable for many of our immigrant neighbors."
Bratton notes that the Police Foundation, a law enforcement research group, issued a report earlier this year concluding that when local police enforce immigration laws, it "undermines their core public safety mission, diverts scarce resources, increases their exposure to liability and litigation, and exacerbates fear in communities that are already distrustful of police."
Ex-Skinhead Leader Gets 3-1/2-Year Sentence for Racketeering
The former leader of a violent racist skinhead group will serve nearly 3½ years in federal prison on a racketeering charge.
Jeremy Robinson, 37, was sentenced on Oct. 15 after pleading guilty to a felony charge of interstate transportation in aid of a racketeering enterprise, according to court documents. Though Robinson did not deal drugs, he tried to help his cousin distribute a large amount of marijuana. In court documents, Robinson acknowledged renting a car for another man to bring marijuana from Texas to Indiana. The man, a courier in the cousin's large-scale drug business, picked up the load but failed to get far before he was pulled over by Texas police, who found 90 pounds of marijuana in the trunk. Robinson also let his cousin use his tattoo shop in Valparaiso, Ind., to receive shipments of marijuana from Texas.
Robinson was a founder of the now-defunct Outlaw Hammerskins, the group whose challenge in 1999 to the nationwide dominance of Hammerskin Nation signaled the beginning of the end of any unified skinhead movement. The Outlaw Hammerskins emerged after the Dallas-based leadership of Hammerskin Nation ordered an Indiana chapter of Northern Hammerskins to remove the "colors" (insignia) of a wayward member. Several Northern Indiana Hammerskins proceeded to beat the offender with a pool cue and threatened to burn off his Hammerskin tattoos with a blowtorch. The Dallas leaders ordered them to turn in their patches. A dozen or so of the Indiana crew left the Hammerskins to form their own renegade group, the Outlaw Hammerskins. ( continue to full post… )


text: on Aug 8, 2013 @ 2:46 PMAug 8, 2013 @ 2:46 PM PublishedQuebec judge calls disaster railway 'deplorable', grants protectionBy Leila LemghalefMONTREAL (Reuters) - A Quebec court granted bankruptcy protection on Thursday to the U.S. railway whose runaway train smashed into a tiny Quebec town, killing 47 people, but Judge Martin Castonguay called Montreal Maine & Atlantic's behavior "deplorable" and said he was not impressed by its management."This decision is to prevent legal anarchy," Quebec Superior Court Judge Castonguay told the courtroom after approving the bankruptcy protection for MMA's Canadian unit.MMA filed for protection in Canada and the United States on Wednesday, saying its revenues had deteriorated since the July 6 crash and it could not afford to pay its mushrooming financial obligations.The company's runaway crude oil train derailed in the small lakeside town of Lac-Megantic, Quebec, exploding in huge fireballs that destroyed a swathe of the town's core. An estimated 5.6 million liters of crude oil were spilled.The bankruptcy filing sparked anger in Lac-Megantic, where residents fear victims' families may not get the compensation they are seeking through several class-action and individual suits against the company in U.S. and Canadian courts.The governments of Quebec and the town of Lac-Megantic have also been demanding MMA foot the cleanup bill, which already amounts to C$7.8 million ($7.6 million). Canadian officials vowed on Thursday to make the railway pay for the damage.Quebec Health Minister Rejean Hebert said the provincial government was seeking status in the bankruptcy case as a "privileged creditor," which would assure it would receive payment from MMA before some other claimants."We are assured of having a guaranteed creditor status which allows us to come before a few other people," Hebert told French-language RDI television. "We're going to use all the necessary legal procedures to go out and seek what we are due, both from MMA and the insurers."QUEBEC A PRIORITY DEBTOR?In U.S. court documents, MMA named the U.S. government, through the Secretary of Transport's Federal Rail Administration (FRA), as its biggest secured creditor. It owes about $27.5 million to FRA, which holds the first lien against MMA's U.S. and Canadian real estate.In the documents filed at the Quebec court, MMA named provincial or federal governments in Canada as "potential secured creditors" for any costs already incurred or incurred in the future for the environmental cleanup of the train crash."It is financially impossible to continue the operations and the provision of services without the benefit of the protection from its creditors," MMA said in the Quebec court document.Hebert said the Quebec government would take priority over the U.S. government with regard to claims against MMA's Canadian unit.Federal Transport Minister Lisa Raitt, who pledged C$60 million to help the town of Lac-Megantic rebuild, said the bankruptcy protection "does not mean that MMA is off the hook for their responsibilities to the people of Lac-Megantic".Daniel Larouchelle, a lawyer representing a class-action lawsuit on behalf of Lac-Megantic victims, said he thought having an arbiter oversee how MMA repaid its debts would help his case.MMA's Canadian petition said insurance covered liabilities up to C$25 million, far too little to cover damages. One source familiar with the matter said big operators like Canadian Pacific Railway and Canadian National Railway likely had coverage in the "hundreds of millions" of dollars.MMA estimated the cleanup costs alone at the disaster site would exceed C$200 million.A court hearing on U.S. bankruptcy protection for MMA was also being held in Bangor, Maine, on Thursday.($1=$1.03 Canadian)(Writing and additional reporting by Louise Egan in Ottawa; Editing by Peter Galloway)

Has Nadal surpassed Borg yet?

Lol at abmk trying to boost his post count even further by triple posting and requoting the same things over and over again. You would think after 9000 posts you would have got the hang of understanding how to quote posts properly, but then again I do realise you are slow so perhaps you will learn in your next 9000 posts...
First of all, I am 100% right when I said Borg won only 2/4 majors because regardless of how highly the AO was regarded back then it is still a major.
And lol how you ask why I said from 2011 onwards add McEnroe to Rafa's path when I just explained why. McEnroe didn't make it to the 79 WIM final he was NOT a threat to Borg until 80 that's why we add him to the most recent 2 Wimbledon's of Rafa's path. So Rafa 4 and Borg 2-3 in WIM titles because Fed would not disappear off Earth after facing Borg in the first 3 finals.
And lol how you call the 81 WIM final an extremely close match, it was close no doubt but not extremely close. Another one of your biased opinions to try and favor your argument. What an ignorant human being you are hahaha.
Your Federer past his prime argument holds absolutely no water either, in USO 11 Fed had MP's against him and the same goes for USO10 which was only a few months before AO11. Fed didn't lose because he's past his prime he just got his arse kicked and only junk tennis gave him a lead in the second set.
Fed had a very dominant and consistent period at the end of 2011 and 2010 wasn't too bad either. His form going into the 2011 AO was very good as it was with AO12 but we all know what happened at this year's AO so I shouldn't repeat it should I?
Power hitting is also very threatening to anyone when the shots keep going in, just look at the Nadal v Rosol result. He blasted winners left right and center especially in the fifth set. Do you really think Rosol would've been able to do that with a wooden racquet?
And Borg would most definitely have to beat Fed thrice because he wouldn't be picking up any points at AO now would he? Fed would make the final of EVERY major and most likely at the very least win AO and USO. Lol I like how you think you know what you're on about but really you have nfi. lol.
With the Wimbledon paths, you look at semi opponents, yeah I agree Borg had it tougher than Rafa, but then I look at the final opponents and see that Rafa had to play FEDERER 3 years in a row. I look at Borg and while he did have some tough final opponents they were certainly no Roger Federer pal.
Keep trying though, seriously you're good for a laugh.

2004 R1150RT Wideband O2 Sensor Project (and AF-XIED for BMW)

I mentioned that a simple way to use the PC III would be to program the Wideband O2 that comes with it to (say) 13.8:1 and fill in the fuel table with 6% (maybe tapering to a lower number at the high RPMs and high TPSs). However, 6% is only the right number if you're running pure gasoline.
Since I haven't seen any documentation on the PC III's Closed Loop capability and haven't measured it; and since the Motronic's Closed Loop ability (and therefore its Adaptation capability) is disabled by a PC III; I believe that the fuel table should have 10% added for motorcycles that run E10 fuel. That would be 4% for E10 and (say) 6% for the richer Lambda setting on the Wideband O2.
Hi Roger, great thread! Just came over from the Pinging thread. It would be nice to know if the OPEN loop adaptation (+/- 10%) is also disabled by the PCIII wideband. My understanding is this is exactly what is disabled with the older non-wideband PCIII when you also use an O2 eliminator. SInce the PCIII Wideband does have a plug for the stock O2 sensor wiring harness, you gotta wonder just what it does.
However you do raise an important point, on the GS + wideband PCIII, or any other bike running without a connected narrowband O2 but using O2 simulator. That is what if any ability does the remaining hybrid system have for E10? I am guessing none. But all gas in my area seems to be e10 so maybe that point is moot.
Another thought, my car is DI (335xi), and you have to code injectors before replacing them (system ID essentially), it would be nice if there were a way to model each injector for response times and so forth on the GS. I know the PCIII can do individual cylinder mapping in advanced mode, I wonder if there is any benefit in looking at that capability. Obviously the wideband does not see each exhaust pulse (the more modern systems do actually, by time windowing the O2 sensor output) but the fuel tables for each cylinder can be tweaked and then the wideband in closed loop would I guess blanket the whole thing and adjust globally.
Great stuff here.

Local lawyer Dr. Robert D. McIntyre, who was director or president of more than 17 community organizations over his lifetime, including founding president of the Brampton branch of the Canadian Diabetes Association and a founding member of the Brampton Farmer's Market, died in Brampton Civic Hospital last Friday (Nov. 30) after a brief battle with cancer.
He was 73.
A funeral service will be held Saturday, Dec. 15, 10 a.m. at the Emmanuel United Church, 420 Balmoral Dr. There will be no viewing.
McIntyre dedicated 45 years of volunteer work in Brampton. He was president of the Brampton Rotary Club, President of the Brampton Flower Town Probus Club, and chaired multiple committees for many local organizations.
"His life's accomplishments were substantial and he taught both my younger brother and I that riches are not merely measured by the size of one's wallet, rather, true riches are weighed by the size of one's impact on (their) community and the number of people's lives that have benefited from one's unselfish service," said his son, Scott.
His sudden death came as a shock, and he is being remembered as a "wonderful" man, who told great stories and was "passionate about his city, profession, Rotary and his family."
We are proud of his role as a significant community leader and are overwhelmed by the shear size of the condolences that are pouring in," Scott McIntyre said.
McIntyre was called to the Ontario Bar in 1966 after articling for the law firm of Tory, Tory, DesLaurier & Binnington in Toronto. He joined Bowyer & Greenslade in Brampton, where he became sole practitioner in 1971. In 1976, it was McIntyre, Moon, then McIntyre & Associates, before he moved into corporate law in 1990 and retired in 2010.
But it was his dedication to the community that made him stand out. He was not one to sit on the sidelines, instead taking a leadership role in a wide variety of good causes and community organizations, from health care to business, and agriculture to education.
As a Brampton Board of Trade director in the 1970s, McIntyre created all the legal documents— vendor's application form, licence regulations— for the establishment of the Farmer's Market, working with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and the City of Brampton. When the market started in 1974, he hooked up a loudspeaker to his car and broadcast special events during the market, which has gone on to become a significant attraction in downtown Brampton every year.
As a Brampton Business Ambassador he promoted the city at Rotary meetings in South Africa, Switzerland, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Australia and Thailand. In 1999, he was a member of a five-person business team to Europe led by then-mayor Peter Robertson and he was instrumental in bringing two industries to Brampton— Sugravo International Inc. from Germany (manufacturers of laser engraved wallpaper rollers), and a $20 million investment by Flachsmann AG from Switzerland, which established a flavours and phytopharmaceutical manufacturing subsidiary here.
He was a Rotary Club of Brampton member since 1969, and past chair of most committees, serving as director, vice-president, and then president in 1975/76. The club raised tens of thousands of dollars for worthwhile endeavours throughout his more than 40 years of service.
He was actively involved with Peel Memorial Hospital as well as the William Osler Health Centre, and the Peel YM/YWCA, was a director with Easter Seals, and as a diabetic, he championed the cause of the Canadian Diabetes Association, serving as founding president of the Brampton branch from 1978 to 1981.
He volunteered his time with the Caledon Agricultural Society, the Brampton Agricultural Society, the American Club, Osgoode Hall Law School, Sheridan College, the McIntyre Clan Association, the Lorne Scots Regimental Association, Emmanuel United Church, Probus Club of Brampton-Flowertown, and many, many others.
He joined founding Brampton and Area Community Foundation (BACF) president Bob Bell to advocate for the Rotary Club to provide seed money to start the BACF, was a member of the Fund Development Committee for several years, and established a family fund of his own.
He was the recipient of numerous awards, including a 1995 long-term service award from the City of Brampton for his community work, the Paul Harris Fellow Award from the Rotary Club of Brampton, and a Lilly Diabetes Journey Award.
He is survived by his wife of 47 years, Louana, his brother Gord, two sons Scott and Kyle, four nieces, a nephew, and five grandchildren.
