Literary Challenge #33 : New Romulus
View Single Post
Join Date: Jul 2012
Posts: 4,359
# 7
Cold, wind-driven rain fell on the Vastaam Peaks, while arctic-bitter winds howled through the mountain forest, but Rynar Lambert maintained his brisk pace and ascent, intent on pursuing what Science officer Laing was convinced was only a sensor ghost.
The canopy of pine trees offered some respite to the wind and rain, but in clearings, the rain certainly qualified as what the Ferengi would consider
, and Lambert knew that it was only the polymer and synthleather of his uniform which kept him from being soaked to the skin.
Kneeling behind an outcrop of rocks for some momentary respite from the rain, and slicking his dark hair back from his face, Lambert reached up and tabbed his comm-badge, holding his fingers down to engage low-audio mode.
"Lambert to
," he murmered. "I'm nearly at the peak, can you give us a more precise heading."
"Keep heading north, Ryan," came the voice of Captain Amanda Palmer. "And keep your eyes open, Number One, you're nearly upon the anomolies."
"Aye, Captain," Lambert acknowledged, as Lieutenant S'rR's Kane crouched down beside him. "Lambert out."
"Which way, Commander?" S'rR's asked quietly, her vibrant purple eyes constantly scanning the treeline as she reached back, deftly knotting her bolt straight ice-blonde hair into a functional warriors queue and out of her face.
"North," Lambert replied, reaching back, and drawing his great-grandfather's mek'leth from his ceremonial baldric. "Do you still think there's more than one?"
"I think so," S'rR's replied with a shrug. "It's hard to tell in the dark with all this rain. It's times like this, I wish I had inherited my mothers tapetum, rather than Marcus' ability to heal..."
Lambert remained silent. The fact that the Lieutenant and the Admiral were an item, was something of an open secret aboard the
, and never spoken of. Lambert understood that like ancient Egyptian royalty, Pentaxian bonding and mating customs were somewhat different to what many societies considered decent, but it was not his place to comment, and the weapon in his hand and the sash across his powerful shoulders were reminders of that: Starfleet and the Federation tolerated his cultural values, and still afforded him the freedom to express that heritage, even though he was only one eighth QuchHa Klingon on his maternal line. Who was he to criticize who a woman fell in love with?*
Additionally, he felt a kind of kinship to the half-Human half-Pentaxian Lieutenant due to her own mixed heritage. She may have looked Human, but biologically, she was closer to Pentaxian than Human norms, and he knew she was as proud of her Pentaxian heritage, as he was of his own Klingon roots, which few observers would have ever suspected, were it not for the ceremonial baldric which he habitually wore over his Starfleet uniform.
"Commander, did you see that?" S'rR's whispered, returning Lambert's attention to their surroundings. "About a hundred meters ahead of us, some kind of disturbance in the rain."
Lambert squinted, trying to see what S'rR's meant. Then he saw it. A moving void in the rain. A void moving against the wind.
"You may not be able to see in the dark, Siri, but I think you're right," he muttered, before breaking cover and sprinting across the clearing in the forest. He had almost reached the treeline, when it, whatever it was, hit him, trapping his legs and bringing him down with a force which momentarily winded him as he hit the floor, and sent the mek'leth clattering away on the rain-slicked rocks, moonlight reflecting from the tines like shooting stars as it fell.
Rolling onto his back, Lambert automatically kicked out at whatever had tripped him, his boot encountered solid resistance, he pushed against it.
A phaser beam hissed viciously close to where Lambert lay, but in that illumination, for an instant, optical refraction meant he was able to perceive his assailant: A humanoid-shaped void in the rain, partially outlined by the phaser beam.
"They're using stealth suits!" he shouted, rolling into a seated crouch and diving forwards in a headlong tackle, his shoulder making contact with something which definitely felt like someone's midriff.
Landing in a kneeling position atop the invisible assailant, Lambert lashed out with a powerful blow, which he felt being partially absorbed and deflected by the head of the stealth suit.
Hearing the commander's shout, S'rR's stopped as she entered the clearing with her phaser drawn. Stealth suits would explain the sensor ghosts and mysterious occurrences around the developing capital, and having been in existence for over twenty years, they were hardly unknown technology.
The rain whipped mercilessly into S'rR's's face, reducing her visibility to mere meters, and she holstered the phaser, knowing that another miss-placed shot was as much danger to Lambert as his assailant. There was a change in the wind, and then she heard it: Running footsteps.
Turning slightly, she saw what looked almost like a waterspout circling her, but gradually drawing closer, spiraling through the driving rain like a spirit, and she felt the hair on her scalp raising in animalistic acknowledgement of the threat. The rain meant she couldn't trust her eyes, so she closed them.
Her eyes closed, her hearing became amplified, and she could clearly locate the approaching assailant. Not wanting to alert the assailant to her awareness of it, she continued to move towards the sound of where Lambert was grappling on the floor, her training allowing her to move as easily over the rugged terrain as if her eyes were open.
She could still hear it drawing closer, closing the gap rapidly, twenty meters, then ten, then five, when she heard a footfall at two meters, she knew the assailant was running for her on a direct collision course. Turning toward the assailant, and clenching her fists, S'rR's felt the momentary burn between her fingers as her claws extended, and she dropped into a crouch, slashing her left hand horizontally from left to right. The sound of ripping cloth and a guttural howl of pain reached her ears, and as she felt the resistance against the blade-like claws and a liquid warmth over her hand, she automatically tensed her wrist further, continuing the swing and opened her eyes.
The cloth of the stealth suit damaged, the cloaking technology deactivated, and the assailant became fully visible, automatically clutching at its disemboweled abdomen, just as S'rR's punched upwards with her right fist, driving the ten inch claws deep into its chest. As the assailant collapsed to the wet ground, S'rR's straightened out of her fighting crouch, her claws retracting back into her forearms as she relaxed her fists, and she saw Lambert delivering a knockout blow to his own assailant, slamming a forearm and elbow into the jaw, before pulling away the hood of the stealth suit.
Getting to his feet, Lambert moved to where his mek'leth had fallen. He stooped and picked up the heirloom, before returning it to his sash and tapping his comm-badge.
"Lambert to
," he said somewhat breathlessly. "We found them, and I can confirm that the Tal Shiar are definitely operating on New Romulus."

In this season of wedding celebrations, one significant alliance that Mumbai missed out on was the wedding of Maha CM Prithviraj Chavan's architect daughter Ankita with IT professional Prakhar Bhandari — he's the scion of an Amritsar-based business family. The calculatedly "simple" marriage ceremony, which was organised at Chavan's still-to-be-vacated official residence at 11 Racecourse Road in Delhi, was followed up by a reception there the next day, attended by political leaders cutting across party lines. But while Sonia Gandhi turned up with son Rahul and joined Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in rubbing shoulders with Opposition leaders LK Advani and Nitin Gadkari, alliance partner NCP's chief Sharad Pawar and deputy Maha CM Ajit Pawar were conspicuous by their absence.
In fact, not a single NCP leader was among the guests. For political observers, attendance at such private functions has always been the surest give-away of personal equations not readily apparent during day- time political posturing. The fact that Chavan chose to relocate the marriage of his daughter to Delhi instead of holding it in the state he rules is, with reason, being interpreted as a clear sign of his comfort level in Mumbai — or lack of it.
While Delhi journalists, administrators and politicians who Chavan cemented relationships with during his stint in the PMO received invites, most of his own Cabinet colleagues from Mumbai were missing.Though we hear that local leaders had been gearing up for a big reception at the RWITC grounds in Mumbai, an "image-conscious" Chavan had a last-minute change of plan, opting for a modest reception for limited guests in Colaba almost as if to get done with the formality. Ironically, he's pulling out all stops for the third and most ambitious reception of them all which is scheduled to be held at his hometown Karad this Sunday. An estimated 50,000 people from in and around Satara are likely to attend the grand feast on December 22. For his many detractors who'll be raising a din about the lavish scale of the celebrations at "a time like this", the Chief Minister does have some political logic to throw at them — he's likely to contest assembly elections from that area. Hmm.

understanding /etc/X11/XF86Config(-4)
I have a few questions regarding the XF86Config file regarding file purpose, resolutions and accelarator modules.
First of all (this might be asked a lot), why 2 files? What is XF86Config-4 for vs XF86Config and can I delete XF86Config if I only use XFree 4? I know that the -4 file is read in first, then the other, but that is all I can discern.
Okay, so my default resolution is 1600x1200, and I know you press Crl - Alt - + or - to get smaller resolutions, but then my desktop is huge and I have to scroll around to see it all...I am assuming this has to do with modelines. RedHat seems to have tons of them in the XF86Config file and I am not sure which ones I actually need.
Finally, this all came about because with a Geforce3 and Athlon 850 chip I am only getting 234 fps on the ssystem -bench program and over at Tom's Hardware they had 285 fps for a geforce2 gts, so I figured maybe there was something I needed to do to optimize.
Any input would be most appreciated.
beginning to understand
Okay, I did some research and I see that changing the resolution does not change the screen size and to set the default screen size you use the option
Virtual 1024 768
under your display section. So I guess my modeline settings are okay after all.
My question now becomes, how do I get better performance? Does KDE slow down my performance and how do I take advantage of page-flipping.
Yes, KDE slows you down. Especially if it was:
1) Compiled with an old binutils (that doesn't combine relocation information), or loaded with an old ld.so (one that doesn't cache the last symbol resolution)
AND, if it was:
2) Not objprelinked. But objprelink works only on i386-class processors (Intel/AMD), and you can sometimes see a lot more segfaults than normal, so distributions are highly unlikely to enable this.
If it was prelinked, or if it was compiled with a newer binutils and you're using a newer ld.so, then you'll see less of a slowdown, but the fact is that KDE is pretty big, and therefore fairly slow. Gnome isn't much better.
twm doesn't have all the "desktop" functionality, it's a bare-minimum window manager. Actually, it's barely even that. It comes with X, so as long as you have X installed, you can use it if you want. To use it, create a .xinitrc file (the dot at the beginning is important) in your home directory, containing the following lines:
twm &
xterm &
exec xterm -name login
When you exit out of the xterm named login, your X session will end. You will also have to place the xterm windows yourself when X starts up (there are no defaults, unless you pass a -geometry argument to xterm -- click the mouse to put them down somewhere), but if you're only going to be doing this to run a benchmark, I don't think it'd be a huge deal. When you want KDE back, mv the .xinitrc file to some other name, and restart X.
There are two X config files because XFree86 version 3 used an incompatible syntax to what XFree86 version 4 uses. So the XFree developers figured they'd make it look for its own syntax file first, then the old one if its version wasn't found. It's so you can have and use X 3 and X 4 on the same system.
thanks for the advice
Okay, the information provided there was excellent...I have my whole XF86Config-4 file under my grasp. Now, for just a few more questions:
It seems to me that XFree 4.x doesn't need the Modeline directives under the Moniter section at all...I no longer have an XF86Config file (only -4) and the modelines are not in it, and everything runs fine. What is the main purpose of those lines and if I wanted to add them in, how would I know what to type?
So running with no window manager (just fwm) I get (glxgears program) 4700 fps at Depth 16 at most resolutions using my Geforce3 Ti200 card. Is that good performance or should I expect more?
Finally, Depth 32 seems not to work, but everyone doing benchmarks always talk about 1024x768x32...what is the 32 and why would my Depth 32 have issues.
XFree 4 calculates modelines itself, from (at least) the monitor's EDID information. I'm pretty sure it gets some info from elsewhere also, but I'm not that familiar with it.
There's an XFree86 Video Timings Howto here that explains some of this.
That's pretty good. glxgears runs at about 2800fps here (GF4 4200, 24-bit mode).
Depth 32 doesn't work because there really is no such thing. ;) In "32-bit mode", you have 8 bits of color info per color per pixel, which is 8*3 bits of actual information per pixel. That's 24-bit color. There's a slight variation on this mode that aligns all the pixels on 32-bit boundaries in video memory to make accesses faster, and that's (for some reason) called 32-bit mode (what they do is add 8 bits of filler). Even though there's only 24 bits of color information per pixel. Some cards actually use the extra 8 bits for an alpha channel, but it seems X doesn't use that. Or maybe it can and I just don't know how to make it.
If you change your depth to 24, you'll get "32-bit mode", with all the benefits of it (a.k.a. more colors).
Put another way, it's the difference between "depth" and "bits per pixel". The depth is still 24 bits, no matter what, because that's the number of bits that affect color. The bits per pixel is what Windows (for one) seems to enjoy calling "depth", which is pretty much just wrong. But a lot of people have gotten confused because of it.
1 Attachment(s)
32-Bit means there's 256 red levels, 256 green level, 256 blue levels, and 256 transparency levels. Usually, the number of colours is determined by a power of two. For example, if the display was 20-bit, the number of colours would equal to 2 ^ 20 or 1 048 576.
About these benchmark programs, where can I get them? And also, would someone be able to check my XFree86 configuration file I attached with this post to see if there is anything wrong with it. I'm running a GeForce4 MX 420 (64 MB), but Mandrake-Linux 9.0 reads it as a GeForce 2 DDR (generic). The reason why I would like to have this checked is since I installed the kernel and GL drivers via the tarball method and modified this file (originally XF86Config-4, just renamed for your understanding), KDE will no longer work and none of the KDE-based applications will work neither. This would be the reason why the X server login window didn't show at start-up because it's KDE-based. Any help would be appreciated.
afaik, it doesn't matter what it labels your Device, as long as it is the same in all places the label is used. All that matters is that your nvidia module is loaded, and the driver will take it from there. From the commandline, what you should do is login and type
and see if x starts...if it doesn't not it will clearly tell you why. Alot of times I find after first installing the driver I have to start kdm or whatever login manager once since the first time after install it defaults to runlevel 3...but that was just my experience.
Continuing with the thread...so are we saying that
when people are talking about a resolution of 1024x768x32 they set the Depth to 24? Is that the short of it?
Re: afaik
Re: afaik
There are only two possibilities I see that could fix the problem without reinstalling Linux. The problem is that I don't know how to act on either possibility. The first possibility is to uninstall and reinstall KDE. The other possibility is what you recommended, setting the runlevel to 3. So how would I be able to do this?
if you really want help...
If you really want help on this, you need to do two things...one, you need to start a new thread so that people acutally read your problem and don't think it is just discussion on the XF86Config-4 file and how to understand it. Second, you need to actually print the errors you get, not just the programs that give them to you. For instance, if I were to compile a program, I don't say...
'I am gettng an error from gcc'
and then post that...I actually post the error so people can do something about it.
You don't need to reinstall anything, all you need to do is track down the problem. Reinstalling is a M$ fallacy.

Wow. Ortiz is throwing 95 according to the gun. I haven't seen him throwing that hard since his early days in Anaheim.
I think it is possible that the Reds staff has misunderstood pitching to contact. They have been pitching lately like they have a clause in their contracts about about combined distance of the contact.

2014 FIA Mobility Conference - Partner : Pirelli
2014 FIA Mobility Conference - Partner : Pirelli
In 2014, Pirelli and the FIA signed a partnership agreement which strengthen the link between Pirelli and FIA mobility clubs.
Pirelli is one of the key global players in the tyre industry and the world leader in the premium segment, focusing on high levels of technology. Founded in 1872, it has a presence in more than 160 countries, with 22 production facilities spread over four continents, and 38,000 employees.
Pirelli has been represented in motorsport since 1907, which has continuously provided the company with opportunities to further increase its technology and know-how. The Italian firm is currently the exclusive supplier to the FIA Formula One World Championship, in a three-year agreement from 2014-2016, as well as exclusively supplying the Superbike World Championship and numerous other motorsport series all over the world.
As well as performance, Pirelli is also renowned the world over for safety. Road safety, together with respect for the environment, form the two cornerstones of Pirelli's Green Performance strategy, upon which all the Group's commercial and industrial decisions are based. Pirelli's commitment to road safety is implemented by several training and public information programmes, but above all through research and development into technology that will encourage more sustainable mobility.
The importance of this proactive involvement in road safety cannot be underestimated. And this is why, when renewing the contract with the FIA Formula One World Championship, Pirelli and the governing body of world motorsport also agreed to discuss the framework of a partnership to promote road safety via the FIA Action for Road Safety campaign.
More details of this partnership will be revealed later this year at the FIA Mobility Conference, of which Pirelli is a sponsor.
Representatives of automobile clubs from all over the world will meet from September 16-19 in Melbourne, to discuss and exchange ideas about road safety and mobility. An opportunity that Pirelli could not afford to miss, underlining the company's firm commitment to a more sustainable future.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
This Legendary Dream home at the entrance to the 'Camano Island State Park' sits on its own bluff and is known for some of the most remarkable, unobstructed ocean views and privacy on the entire Island. A rare, one story, open craftsman style home, has huge picture windows from every room to give you breathtaking views of Puget Sound, the boats to and from Canada and the Island's sea and wildlife. This sacred home was custom built for his wife by Al Emerson, the first forest ranger on Camano Island. Enjoy the peaceful walk to the nearby famous 'Al Emerson Nature Trail', which was dedicated in his honor. This is the ONLY home available that is at the entrance to the state park, yet is secluded and quiet.
Huge 3 car RV/Boat garage, vast circular drive and private Gym, completes this perfect retreat. The serene, private deck that wraps around most of the house overlooking the Sound, often catches many of our majestic rainbows!
Heaven on Earth has arrived!
Description Cont. : Due to the positioning of the property, you feel like you are ocean front, floating in the clouds with privacy as one of the main features, yet steps away from the magnificent Camano Island State Park. The Island even has its own 'airplane landing strip' for those who come by private plane.
This unpretentious home is furnished to make you feel like royalty, with a secluded water view master suite which has a floor to ceiling hand carved 4 poster canopy bed, and a world famous Nikken magnetic mattress(which is endorsed by the World Federation of Chiropractics and may just give you the deepest, most healing sleep of your life). Also in the master suite is a freestanding fireplace and sliding glass doors that open to the deck. At the opposite end of the home is the second custom furnished bedroom with its own full bath and views of the trees and ocean from the sleigh bed.
There is a wood burning stove next to the kitchen in the living/dining area- all with ocean views-and the spacious kitchen is big enough for dancing!
For you rugged, outdoor types, there is an attached huge 3 car RV/boat garage with its own full bath and gymnasium. Hiking, fishing, crabbing, boating and picnic areas are conveniently located within walking distance. Camano's own golf course is just a short drive within minutes of the home, next to the town center with various shops and a grocery store.
If you are fortunate enough to be here over the fourth of July or New Years Eve, the firework shows over the water and Whidbey Island will take your breath away!
As the deer, bunnies, bald eagles and other wildlife stop by to visit, be sure to greet them because this is also a designated registered wildlife habitat owned by the founder of one of the first all-volunteer, foster-home pet rescues of its kind in the country.
Ask about making a donation to the charity, Recycled Pets Rescue, and receiving a signed copy of her inspirational award winning book, My Recycled Pets: Diary of a Dog Addict.
When this vacation ends, perhaps with one of our many rainbows smiling at you in your rear-view mirror, you will drive away feeling blessed and maybe even holding back a tear or two.
PLEASE ALSO CONTACT BY PHONE AS WE OFTEN cannot check emails and please leave a message if you receive the voicemail. No Smoking in the home or on the grounds please as this is a' Registered Wildlife Habitat'.
Being on a quiet, unpopulated street at the entrance to the Camano Island State Park gives you the best of all worlds The private views of Puget Sound from each room truly makes you feel as though you are on your own planet!
Randi's home was exactly what we were seeking - two private bedrooms at opposite ends of a large house, a large central gathering area in the middle, and a killer view of Saratoga Passage. The rooms were spacious, the kitchen was well-equipped for 2-4 guests, and if it had been whale migration season all our free time would have been spent on the huge deck! Although other homes were nearby, we neither saw or heard anyone else - a very private oasis indeed. Randi was very helpful and communication was easy. This was a very restful retreat, and thanks so much for sharing with us, Randi. Hope to be back one of these days very soon!
Leanne Cool, CA
This home is nicely laid out with bedrooms on opposite ends of the house. Spacious living room/dining room with an unforgettable, magical, panoramic view. Beautiful furniture. Very clean. Within walking distance to Camano Island State Park. Nice quiet location. Owner is very good with communication and easy to get a hold of. We would rent again in a heartbeat!
As I read the previous review about this excellent home, location and owner, all I could think to say is a heartfelt ditto! We would rent again when we are in the area.
We had the best relaxing vacation recently at Randi's property on Camano. What a great location!
My wife and I spent a couple days exploring the beautiful state parks to which we were able to just walk. We had forgotten to bring our Discovery Pass (left it in our smaller car) and by walking there, we saved ourselves the day pass fee...a mere $10. But hey, every bit helps, right?
This very lovely house is quiet and private with a great deck where we were able to watch bunnies play, eagles soar, and fireworks across the water on Whidbey Island without the loud booms that freak out our dog. Our days there were spent exploring the island, the state parks, local farmers markets, and some of the interesting stuff up by Chuckanut. We polished off a flat of amazingly tiny, tender strawberries (from Schuh Farms) in 3 days between the two of us. Our evenings were spent cooking, catching up on reading, playing music, and enjoying the views in the evening light. But most importantly, this was a great place for us to relax and feel restored before heading home. Being surrounded by all the natural beauty helped me remember how incredible the Northwest really is. It was hard to leave.
Thanks, Randi, for making your home available for folks like us!
PS. It was cool to be able to see that tiny island that looks like a surfaced submarine from a different perspective. I'm pretty sure thats the one I've always been looking at from Rosario State Park.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Randi's place on Camano Island. When you open the front door and walk in, you are immediately faced with a breath-taking, panoramic view. The house is very comfortable, and there is a beautiful view from every window. We enjoyed reading the inspirational quotes Randi has placed around the house, and the decorations, especially the leprechaun, delighted us.
The description regarding the layout,location and amenities is accurate. The property is clean and well-maintained. Randi, the owner, is very courteous and supplied us with great customer service and a list of things to do around the area and places to dine.
This is a perfect place to unwind. The furniture is fabulous and very comfortable. The kitchen is well supplied, and it is easy to make your own meals. The first time we went out onto the wrap-around deck to use the BBQ, we were thrilled to observe a pair of eagles near the house. The tranquil sound of birds, the view of wild-life and the gorgeous setting will put anyone into a relaxed mood.
Randi is very professional, accommodating, and punctual at replying to any inquiry you may have. It was a pleasure getting to know Randi, and we all hope to be able to stay at her home again.
We highly recommend Randi's beautiful home.
We were very pleased with our stay and had no complaints. VERY clean, spacious, QUIET, private, and with great water views. The home is wheelchair accessible (my brother, who uses a power chair, had no problems maneuvering around the house and onto the deck). The kitchen is nicely furnished for cooking most meals. The owner was great to work with and easy to communicate with -- very enthusiastic about us staying at her home. The house is only a short walk to the trails of the state park, and not much further to the beach. The pictures of the property were very accurate and not misleading at all.
My husband and I stayed at this beautiful property for 10 days in July. We would have stayed longer if it wasn't already rented!! We had our dog with us and had the perfect vacation here. The owner, Randi, is delightful and so easy to work with. The house is gorgeous and has a spectacular view. It is so quiet and peaceful, you will feel like you are the only people around.
There are tons of things to do close by. Camano State Park is unbelievably beautiful and offers many beautiful hikes and water recreation. We rented a boat close by the house and had a great day on the water. Fresh crab!!!!!! It's also easy to get to Whidbey Island and Seattle from here.
If you are looking for a peaceful, relaxing vacation, look no further. You will love this property. It's very clean and well maintained. Super if you are traveling with a four-legged friend. You will enjoy endless hours sitting on the huge deck and watching the boats pass by. Great for bird watching also.
We can't wait to go back!
Between Seattle and B.C., Canada Off of the 5 Freeway.
Other Activities: Shelling, Wildlife Viewing, Rock Climbing, Shopping, Parasailing, Boating, Health/Beauty Spa.
Golf: Other Activities: Bring your bikes and hiking shoes as this home borders some of the most beautiful trails in the state. Book early for the famous Camano Island Mother's day Art Studio Tour which is a tour of local artists homes and galleries held each year over Mother's Day Weekend.
Ocean View: Known for having views better than many ocean front properties, this home is the best of both worlds as it never is affected by floods and has privacy unparalleled to many homes.

Did NYC Candidate Publish Anti-Gay Ad to Attract Satmars?
Ad ran in Yiddish paper, candidate denies placing it
In an only-in-Brooklyn turn of events, a kerfuffle has broken out over whether a liberal Jewish city council candidate placed an ad in an ultra-Orthodox Yiddish newspaper representing himself as anti-gay. It all started on August 20, when the paper Der Blatt—affiliated with the Satmar hasidic sect, which includes an important bloc of voters in the district—ran an advertisement for conservative Catholic candidate John Heyer claiming that Heyer agreed with the community's position on "abominations"—toyves, in Yiddish, or homosexuality. A week later, the paper ran a very similar ad for liberal, Jewish, pro-gay marriage candidate Brad Lander that says Lander "stands clearly against the various abominations and immoral laws that are a major issue in these elections."
After that, the story changes depending on whom you ask. The editor of Der Blatt, Alexander Deutsch, told Tablet—via our columnist Eddy Portnoy, a professor of Yiddish at Rutgers University—that, after being contacted by Lander's Satmar-community liaison Rabbi Yitzhok Fleischer, he "received copy for a paid advertisement and put it in just like any other ad." Fleischer, he said, "bought the advertisement in the name of the Lander campaign," and thus Der Blatt sent the campaign a bill (which is now floating around the internet).
Lander, however, told Tablet—as he has been telling reporters since the story broke—that Fleischer (who's listed as a prominent supporter on the campaign's website) never contacted the campaign about placing such an ad, and, moreover, that Fleischer himself merely provided Der Blatt with pictures of Lander and didn't dictate the copy. "Everything suggests that [Der Blatt] just wrote it," Lander said. So, in this version of events, Der Blatt—or someone trying embarrass Lander—made up the ad, then sent the bill to the Lander campaign.
Regardless of what actually happened, Lander, considered the front-runner in the race, has taken a hit from it. The Stonewall Democrats, a political club supporting a (gay) Lander opponent took the opportunity to argue that this is "not the first time Brad Lander has courted homophobes." Josh Skaller, yet another candidate in the race, told Tablet in a jibe at his opponent, "If you're not trying to cut corners, you don't get yourself into trouble."

Special Correspondent
CHENNAI: Former Supreme Court judge and Chairman of the Press Council of India (PCI), K. Jayachandra Reddy, on Thursday suggested that the Madras or Annamalai University take up publication of a collection of works of the late Dr.C.R.Reddy, the eminent educationist.
Andhra University had published some of them. But there were many works of Dr.Reddy, an educationist since 1914, which needed to be published in the form of a compendium, he stressed.
Recalling the yeoman services of the renowned educationist in shaping Madras, Mysore and Annamalai Universities, the PCI Chairman said the Andhra University, of which Dr. Reddy was Vice-Chancellor for nearly two decades, owed everything to him.
Mr. Justice Jayachandra Reddy was speaking at a function in which the Editor-in-Chief of The Hindu , N.Ram, released a book "Democracy, Indian Constitution and National integration", selected works of Dr. Reddy, at a function organised by P.Obul Reddy Charitable Trust.
Dr. Reddy was "a versatile genius, who established himself as a man of letters, an eminent educationist, an astute politician, a veteran statesman and as an intellectual force".
His writings and speeches touched various issues. He cautioned politicians in an impressive way, "not to be on an unchartered voyage unmindful of the national interests".
Mr. Justice Jayachandra Reddy said a pack of three books containing the selected works of Dr. Reddy had been priced at Rs.1,000. The sale proceeds of the sets and of the publications would be utilised to erect a bronze statue of Dr. Reddy in Chitoor, headquarters of his native district.
Mr. Ram said that skimming the writings of Dr. Reddy, who was an outstanding intellectual, would show his uninhibited and lively mind. He was not afraid to be unpopular and he was a fearless critic. In politics, he had a very political mind and he never hesitated to record his opinions. The theme of the book released today was important and Dr. Reddy's insights into democracy revealed his depth. He was also secular to the core.
Speakers including S. Natarajan, former judge, Supreme Court, Pratap C. Reddy, Executive Chairman, Apollo Group of Hospitals and P. Obul Reddy, industrialist, recalled Dr. Reddy's services to society and stressed that his works were significant in the present day context. Mr. Justice Natarajan said Dr. Reddy had the interests of the nation at heart. Unlike the slanging matches in the political arena today, his speeches, were refined and cultured. Dr. Pradap C. Reddy announced a contribution of Rs. 1 lakh towards the erection of the educationist's statue.

What Your Choice of Catnip Says About You
Cats love catnip, but they need us to buy the catnip before they can go to the moon. What does the type of catnip you buy say about you as a person? Not very much, to be honest. But our guide to seven types of catnip seems to think it does.
1. Catnip Blossoms
Look at you, buying catnip blossoms! You appreciate the finer things in life, the fragrant nuggets of sticky, aromatic goodness that can carry you off into all-afternoon reveries. I am not referring to marijuana. And yet, 60 percent of people who buy catnip blossoms think about marijuana during the entire purchase, from inspecting the offerings to hefting the satchel to carrying it out of the store in the discrete paper bag, according to studies I just conducted in my head. Watch out, catnip-blossom buyer. You're living on the edge.
This is also the best catnip you can buy. Disagreements are invalid.
2. Catnip Spray Can
You picked the spray can? That's a bold power move right there. A spray can lays down a nice, uniform sheen of narcotic on your cat's toy, the better for your cat to ... actually, no. A spray can? This is weird all around. Just make sure you don't get the can containing propane, because it's out there. And realize your catnip is not only bottom of the barrel, it's the cleaning product used to clean the bottom of the barrel.
3. Catnip Spray Bottle
All right, we confess: There's only one catnip spray that contains propane, so stop composing that angry letter. Most sprays come in small bottles and contain catnip oil distilled from catnip plants, and maybe a little sodium nitrite and morpholine -- kidding! To be fair, who doesn't think that coating your cat's toys in a nice, uniform sheen of narcotic is the correct move now and again? It's practical, neat, and efficient. You're on top of things. You've graduated from the catnip banana and you're not looking back.
4. The Catnip Banana
I don't think there's a owner alive who hasn't succumbed to the catnip banana, so count yourself in good company. And yet, the catnip banana is dangerous, bringing unsuspecting cat owners face to face with a heretofore unknown and highly disturbing substance: cat slobber. Alas, nothing in the world gets as disgusting as a catnip banana, except maybe a catnip cigar. These are rookie products. Get with the program.
5. Chopped-leaf Catnip
God, what a mess. You just want to send your cat to Mars and back for a little while, and suddenly your house looks like your cat threw a party and invited everybody on Facebook? And you keep buying it, don't you? It's almost as hard to stop buying chopped-leaf catnip as it is to start buying catnip blossoms.
6. Catnip Tea
Behold! Catnip tea. The best part of catnip tea is that it's not even for your cat. It's for you. You like to shock people. You like to run with the wolves. You like to invite your neighbor over, hold her gaze for a moment too long, and sweetly inquire, "Would you like some .... catnip tea?"
Sweetened Catnip Tea
1 cup boiling water
1 tablespoon fresh cut or crushed catnip leaves
1 cup honey
To prepare: Boil water, put the leaves into a tea ball and steep for five minutes while murmuring an incantation. Add honey. Drink. Go right to the moon, man. No, just kidding. Just go over to the sink and spit it out and get your life together, you follow me?
7. Homegrown Catnip from Seed
Oh, you went there, didn't you? You grew your own catnip? Godspeed, my friend. You're headed right off the grid and we may never seen you again. Give Gaia our well-wishes and stay away from the roads.

The brain's prefrontal cortex is thought to be the seat of cognitive control, working as a kind of filter that keeps irrelevant thoughts, perceptions and memories from interfering with a task at hand.
Now, researchers at the University of Pennsylvania have shown that inhibiting this filter can boost performance for tasks in which unfiltered, creative thoughts present an advantage.
The research was conducted by Sharon Thompson-Schill, the Christopher H. Browne Distinguished Professor of Psychology and director of the Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, and Evangelia Chrysikou, a member of her lab who is now an assistant professor at the University of Kansas. They collaborated with Roy Hamilton and H. Branch Coslett of the Department of Neurology at Penn's Perelman School of Medicine and Abhishek Datta and Marom Bikson of the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the City College of New York.
Their work was published in the journal Cognitive Neuroscience.
Previous studies have shown that the prefrontal cortex in particular, the left prefrontal cortex is one important area of the brain that supports cognitive control. As a test of whether reduced cognitive control might be advantageous in some circumstances, Thompson-Schill's team designed an experiment that involved inhibiting the activity of the left prefrontal cortex in adults while they completed a creative task.
In this task, participants are shown pictures of everyday objects and are asked to quickly come up with uses for them that are out of the ordinary, such as using a baseball bat as a rolling pin. Participants see a sequence of 60 objects, one every nine seconds, and the researchers measure how long it takes for them to come up with a valid response, or if they are unable to do so before the next picture appears.
The researchers hypothesized that high levels of cognitive control would be a detriment to coming up with these kinds of uncommo

We stayed in this campground because it was the closest park to where we were to meet family. The Army Surplus Store was indeed a plus to this park otherwise it wasn't a recommendable park. We were charged several dollars more than what we were quoted when we made our reservation. We were told our site had a sewer access and it did not. We were told the park had Wi-Fi, it did not. The sites were so close together we weren't sure we would be able to swing out of the row. I wouldn't say it was big rig friendly although there were a couple of larger sites. We had to dodge the dog waste as permanent residents walked their dogs around the empty sites and didn't clean up after them. It had rained so that aspect of our stay was quite disgusting. The permanent rigs were very old and very run down as well as the park property was unkempt. The manager was not here when we arrived; in fact we made several attempts to pay our bill in the office, and the door was locked. Close to I-15, the noise surprisingly was minimal. We stopped at the office on our way out to pay and even though I mentioned that we didn't have a full service site, our total was more than what we were quoted for full hook ups. It did appear that they were remodeling the office area. We do not recommend this park for anymore than one night, and will not stay here again. We camped at Targhee Inn & RV in a Motorhome.

This place was spooky to us. Junky looking, really dilapidated run down permanent "rigs" (some will never move again). We would have left except we were meeting friends. We were given a supposed 50 amp site but it was only 30 amp, don't even know if they have 50 amps. The manager knew nothing about RV's and very, very little about his small park. Would not stay here again. We camped at Targhee Inn & RV in a Fifth Wheel.

this park was south of Idaho Falls, right near the huge Army Surplus Store (husband loved this). I was surprised at how quiet it was even being near the off ramp. Wi Fi was not available at the far end of the campground even though I was told it was. This is an OK place to set up for an overnight stay. Was a bit smelly due to proximity to the fields (manure I think) but the wind shifted and it was fine. We camped at Targhee Inn & RV in a Fifth Wheel.

Where Dalits could not be elected for a minimum of two tenures
MADURAI: The State Government should promulgate an ordinance for continuing with the reservation in local bodies wherever Dalit representatives were not allowed to be elected for a minimum of two tenures, said leader of Dalit Panthers of India Thol. Tirumavalavan. has demanded.
He welcomed the Government's decision not to de-reserve the four panchayats Pappapatti, Keeripatti, Nattarmangalam and Kottakatchiyendal. Stating that the DPI would field candidates in all these four reserved panchayats, he appealed to all political parties to support them.
Mr. Tirumavalavan also welcomed the concept of allowing political parties to directly field their candidates at the panchayat level.
The party opposed the State Government's ordinance favouring indirect election to the posts of Corporation Mayor and Municipal Chairman. Allowing the councillors to elect the Mayor and Chairman instead of the voters would lead to corruption and horse-trading.
"Increase reserved seats"
Stating that the Dalit population in the State had increased by one per cent to 19 per cent as per 2001-census, Mr. Tirumavalavan wanted the Government to increase the reserved seats accordingly. The party would stage a demonstration at all taluks on September 6, pressing for increase in reservation of seats. The concept of creamy layer should be withdrawn in providing 27 per cent reservation for the Other Backward Classes.

Operating lessor AWAS has closed commercial financing on an Airbus A330-300, which was delivered to AirAsia X on a long-term operating lease, with two European banks.
DVB Bank and Natixis acted as co-arrangers and co-lenders on the financing, says DVB, which confirms the transaction.
The aircraft was delivered new this month
Separately, AWAS indicated on its second-quarter earnings call that the lessor will take delivery of 10 aircraft from its forward order pipeline with Airbus and Boeing during the remainder of this year. It will also take 10 aircraft that it has committed to purchase in the trading sector during this time.
