Germans are a menace.
Long before there were Nazis, this was the prevailing sentiment in America's heartland. During World War I, patriotic Nebraskans formed "The Council of Defense" and went about intimidating anyone who spoke or published German. Propaganda, like the image below, stoked their righteous rage.

DENR Region IV-B (MIMAROPA) Took Part in this Year's 13th Annual
Philippine Cave Congress in Davao del Norte
by: Ma. Grace Laurente-Agatep
The Philippine Speleological Society, Inc. (PSS), a non-stock, non-profit and non-government organization which serves as the national network of Caving Groups and which has been largely instrumental in the creation of RA 9072 – The Cave Resources Management and Protection Act, held its 13th Annual Philippine Speleological Society Cave Congress with the theme: "Harmonizing Management Interventions for the Sustainable Use of our Caves and Cave Resources". The event was conducted on April 8-12, 2013 in Davao Del Norte and hosted by Speleo Davao Inc. in cooperation with the Provincial Government of Davao Del Norte, Municipal Government of New Corella-Davao Del Norte and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources through the Protected Areas and Wildlife Bureau and the Department of Tourism Regional Office (RXI). The DENR-IVB was represented by the technical staff of the Regional Office and PENROs/CENROs headed by RED Edgardo O. Galeon and RTD for PAWCZMS Gwendolyn C. Bambalan.
The cave congress was organized to gather all caving clubs in the country and other stakeholders in the conservation and promotions of Philippine caves. Basically, it aimed to discuss, review and assess current cave management plans and explore different approaches in developing quality cave management plans and promote caving and adventure tourism in the host area by showcasing the natural wonders of the region. The first two days of plenary sessions were held in Tagum City, Davao Del Norte while the next three days of practical application and technical trainings were held in the Municipality of New Corella, Davao Del Norte.
Discussions during the plenary sessions included: State of Environmental Management Plans and Implementation in the Philippines by Carlos M. Libosada, Jr. of UP Diliman, DENR's Approach to Planning and Sustainable Development by Dir. Theresa Mundita S. Lim of DENR-PAWB and presented by Marlynn Mendoza, Importance of Limestone Karst Habitat in the Evolution of Philippine Amphibian and Reptiles by Dr. Arvin C. Diesmos of National Museum, DOT's Approach to Planning and Sustainable Development by warner Andrada of DOT, Puerto Princesa Underground River History and Tourism Initiatives by James Albert A. Mendoza of DENR-Palawan, State and Conservation Initiatives of the Bats in the Philippines by Dave Walden of Bat Conservation International, Cementing Biodiversity by Dr. Neil Aldrin D. Mallari of Fauna and Flora International, Monfort Cave History and Development Initiatives by Norma Monfort, Caves within Private Land by Atty. Alton Durban of DENR-PAWB, Caves and Tourism by Jason Garrido of PSS. Before the practicum proper, lectures on Basic Caving Skills, Cave Surveying and Single Rope technique were made.
Considering that the Municipality of Corella is famous in Davao del Norte for its number of caves that are potential ecotourism sites, the participants were divided into groups to conduct the survey and mapping, exploration and observation of fauna within the ten caves found in the said municipality as part of their practicum. Among the caves sighted and observed, Borja Cave was recommended for reclassification from Cave Classification III to Cave Classification II. If its reclassification will prosper, caving activities within the area will be properly monitored and controlled ensuring its propriety as ecotourism destination without prejudicing its cave resources within.
DENR MIMAROPA Training Needs Assessment (TNA) and
Consultative Meeting on Regional Updates Successfully Held
Training and career development of the employees are essential building blocks of an organization's success. Government agencies are not exempted, especially with the reorganization under the rationalized set-up for a more effective and efficient governance. As an initial step in improving productivity of the employees, and in order to provide better services to the public, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources Region IV-B MIMAROPA, through a joint-undertaking of the Administrative Division and Human Resource Development Section (HRDS), a two-day seminar on the Training Needs Assessment (TNA) and Consultative Meeting on Regional Updates was conducted on September 2-3, 2014 at BSA Twin Towers in Mandaluyong City with twenty-three (23) DENR MIMAROPA PENRO, CENROs and administrative officers in attendance.
Regional Director Oscar C. Dominguez showed his full support and congratulated the HRDS in organizing the seminar. His inspirational message highlighted the impact and importance of trainings to the employees as well as to the whole agency. Human Resource Consultant Ms. Jacqueline P. Galvez shared that to be effective and efficient, training programs must start with a needs assessment. After the orientation on Training Needs Assessment (TNA), Ms. Galvez discussed to the participants the strategic Human Resource Plan then proceeded to the training needs workshop. The second day was allotted to the various discussions on different topics such as Rationalization Plan Updates presented by OIC-Chief Administrative Officer Alberto Q. Arbo; Terminal Leave, Incentive Packages and Checkless Payment System by OIC-Chief Finance Division Ruby C. Bautista; and Matrix of Amended Provision to the Revised Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of Republic Act 9184, Workflow of Bids and Awards Committee, and PhilGEPS Buyer Overview by Bids and Awards Committee (BAC) Secretariat Mr. Rogelio Labrador.
The success of the activity was attributed to the enthusiasm of the participants who were eager to learn, understand and participate in the seminar. Their participation is very significant because they are the ones responsible to carry out training needs assessment of the employees as well as to cascade important information for the betterment of services of our agency, most especially in the implementation of the Rationalization Plan as mandated by Executive Order No. 366.

PORTLAND -- Parents neglecting child support payments were targeted Wednesday by Portland police, U.S. Marshals and the Oregon Attorney General.
The task force set out to arrest 15 deadbeat parents throughout Multnomah County.
In Jacob Aalberg's case, he said he owes child support to his own parents who now have custody of his daughter. Aalberg, 34, was escorted out of his Northeast Portland home.
It's not a big deal, Aalberg told KGW, I've been to jail before. I haven't paid. I haven't worked for a while.
He also has a son he actually care for. It's a different mother, he said. It's complicated.
Ken Rueben of the AGs office said Aalberg represents the problem well.
This is why it's a serious issue. We are getting court orders for people who really really need it, he said.
The task force sweep was not just about deadbeat dads . Authorities were also looking for an Oregon woman who hasn't paid child support but did not find her.
The Wednesday sting netted four deadbeat parents who all face a potential six months in jail.
In addition to Aalberg, who owed $16,656 in child support, police arrested Jacob S. Parker, who owes $17,346; Christopher T. Elliot, who owes $30,856, Tammie J. Anderson, who owes $12,983 and Arne H. Karlson, who owes $7,288.

Nov 13, 2012I had the chance to play the game back in 2000. It was mindblowing. All the cities, the details, the music. A very arcade game, very challenging. This game paved the way for Microsoft and the PGR franchise.
Sadly it wasn't enough to save the Sega Dreamcast !
Pick this game up today and you'll still be playing it months from now, without ever once feeling bored. How many games can you say that about?
Quite simply brilliant. I have not been held by a game like this for a long time, it is addictive, compelling and quite marvellous to play.

Ron Mix knows what it's like on and off the field
Which leads to the obvious question: How's your head, Ron?
He smiles. "I'm fortunate in only having arthritic joints. The last thing I would admit is having neurological problems, because I can't imagine a client saying, 'I would like to be represented by Ron Mix even though he has brain damage.'"
Ron, all athletes know the risks when they sign up.
"That's absolutely true. However, workers comp is a no-fault system. If you are injured on the job, that's all you have to prove."
I've heard it said, tongue in cheek, that if we went back to leather helmets with no face masks, we'd have fewer injuries because tacklers would be protective of their own heads.
"I don't believe that."
You'd have fewer teeth.
"You'd have fewer teeth and fewer women."
I see those players who weigh 340 to 350 pounds, and I see those jiggling bellies, and I think, good grief, what must their doctors think?
Mix says players have no choice; obesity can be a job requirement. Linemen pretty much have to stay fat if they want to keep getting a paycheck. He represented the lawsuit of Nate Newton, a retired lineman for the Dallas Cowboys. Mix says Newton testified that he weighed 265 coming out of college, but the Cowboys gave him a reporting weight of 325, thus he established that being overweight was a condition of employment. At the time the case was filed, Newton weighed 425 and had diabetes.
"His job requirement was to be overweight. Of course, once you stop playing, your appetite doesn't change. You can't exercise because you are a physical mess."
Mix says when he played, team doctors sometimes precipitously rushed players back into action, but often with the complicity of players anxious to play.
"I remember having a lame Achilles and the team doctor told me that the only quick fix would be a cortisone steroid injection. He asked if I had ever had such an injection there before, and when I told him I had, he strongly advised me not to do it again. He told me to just be inactive for three to four weeks. I told him I needed to play that week and wanted the shot. He reluctantly gave it to me, muttering, 'And you're supposed to be a smart guy.'"
In the current Miami Dolphins dispute involving accusations that bullying and racism were used to victimize one player, Jonathan Martin, Mix is unwilling to form a judgment.
"When all the evidence comes out, it'll be far more complicated. I suspect there was a lot of playful talking going back and forth where one would use racial epithets. You have a common experience playing professional football. It breaks down all sorts of barriers. You are talking among yourselves. When viewed from the outside, people think, 'How could they talk that way?' Well, that's just the culture."
Would you encourage kids to play football?
"Below high school, tackle football shouldn't exist. The proof is solid enough now that it's just too dangerous for young boys."

This is a really nice hotel - great position, good public areas, a fair price for a room with a gorgeous view of the lake. The only negative was a lack of attention to detail - our bathroom had an almost totally detached loo seat, the shower door was on its last legs and the stopper didn't work at all in the washbasin. It's a pity as this is a lovely place to stay with charming staff. Stronger management and a little simple TLC would change this from a good hotel to a great one. The terraced restaurant (separately run) is delightful, but the food isn't quite as good as it thinks it is.

Lovely hotel and facilities, food in the resturant was excellent. Unfortunately we had a room at the back and very busy road and railway, together with very noisy air-conditioning unit outside meant not very easy to sleep.

Rafaella and everyone at the Villa were the most friendly, polite, helpful people. What a beautiful, beautiful place. The staff do everything to make your stay pleasant and to meet your every need. Highly recommend...especially the restaurant. Quite a talented young chef and a pretty nice wine list.

The photos don't really do it justice - it's a wonderful building with stunning gardens and pool. A great place for a relaxing stay that's just 10 minutes from Iseo town and very handy for ferries to Monte Isola. The restaurant is pretty decent too, and dining on the terrace was extremely pleasant. Definitely recommended.

We enjoyed our stay at Kinzica so much that we altered our plans and returned at the end of our Italy vacation, just to stay another night. (We tried for 2, but the Kinzica was booked for one of them.) 2 additional comments: Patricia was just wonderful: warm, generous, friendly and helpful. We were happy to have met her. The next comment concerns our second stay, on September 25th. After enjoying a wonderful meal at the Kinzica ristorante but not yet ready to leave the dining room and our friends, I needed to use the dining room toillete. To my surprise, I found the toilet paper holder COMPLETELY EMPTY, leaving me no choice but to waddle like a duck across the length of the room, to the paper towels; I was NOT happy. I brought it to the attention of the desk manager who, although quickly fixing the problem, seemed unconcerned: no apology of any sort was offered. It was, however, the only uncomfortable moment during our two stays, and wouldn't - unless my dining experience was again ruined that way! - keep us from returning or recommending Kinzica.

The food was excellent and so was the service at dinner. Also, I particularly liked the pool area. The room was large and had a separate lounge area, which was impressive.

A lovely and very well run hotel, with beautiful grounds. The only problem for some might be that the hotel restaurant was in the next town, so that without a car there might not be too many good places nearby to eat.

This is a small boutique type hotel in a lovely location beside Lago d'Iseo. The staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble.Breakfast is marvellous with so much to choose from, including an Organic selection of local produce. The fresh juicer was a good touch.The rooms are spotless, and included turn down service with chocolates left on the bed, which my daughter particularly enjoyed! We are already persuading some friends to return with us later in the year.

A beautiful hotel with spacious and clean rooms, and welcoming staff. However, the web description was misleading in that I was expecting a hotel in vast ("extensive") grounds, but in fact this was not the case at all. The grounds were just large enough to contain the hotel. Moreover, there was a main road in front of it, a railway line behind it, and an operational timber yard next to it. So noise levels could create a problem for some (though the rooms seemed to be sound-proofed to a certain extent). Another problem was that the hotel did not have a restaurant - the only serve breakfast, so you have to eat out. Beware that if you arrive on a Monday (as we did), most places around the lake are closed. In addition, the online map was pretty useless since it only showed the region - though it was easy to find once you located the village. Having said that, it was truly a charming hotel with magnificent views across the lake, and I would stay there again.

Thanks for the review John, its cool when you smoke a blend and it just clicks. I haven't tried Tilbury yet but I have some on hand once I polish of some open tins.
This is a discussion on Esoterica Tilbury within the Pipe Related Reviews forums, part of the Pipe Smokers Forums category; Ahhh Tilbury..... This may be the one for me. I normally smoke a wide assortment of different tobaccos throughout the ...
Ahhh Tilbury.....
This may be the one for me. I normally smoke a wide assortment of different tobaccos throughout the day, but after opening a tin of Tilbury I found myself going back to it and back to it until I had to dig the can I had stashed out of the cellar and order more.
Right out of the tin it screams quality tobacco, which seems consistent with Esoterica offerings. Ribbons of light and dark tobaccos with chunks of broken flake scattered throughout. The tin note is that slightly sour figgy smell that I have come to associate with good aged Virginias. It's somewhat similar to Anni-kake or the H&H Mature VA that Mac Baren puts out, but while I like both those blends a lot the comparison doesn't do Tilbury justice.
Moisture level seems good right out of the tin. You could dry it some, it's not crispy, but I smoke it up with no trouble fresh.
Pack good, char good, taste heavenly. It's easy to light, and has smoked well out of every pipe I have put it in. Today it's smoldering in my calabash shaped Cassano, which is maybe 10 bowls into the break in (probably 5 of those were Tilbury, it may be VA dedicated at some point).
It smokes great. The more I smoke the more I understand the comparisons people make between this and Stoney. VA's up front and tasty, definitely a hint of burley in there with it's nuttiness adding depth to the VA. No casing that I can detect really, although at different times I seem to taste hints of chocolate and occasionally cinnamon.
The taste seems to stay consistent throughout the entire bowl, perhaps seeming a little stronger near the bottom but still delicious. This is one of the few tobaccos I seem to smoke to an ash more than not, but that may be attributed to how delicious it is, I just can't put it down.
Overall, it's a mellow tasty smoke with an above average hit of nicotine. This blend has become my go to smoke morning and night. I am sure my palate will continue to change, but Tilbury is going to be seeing my cellar and my rotation for a long time to come. I can hardly wait to taste what it will be like after a couple years jarred up.
Thanks for the review John, its cool when you smoke a blend and it just clicks. I haven't tried Tilbury yet but I have some on hand once I polish of some open tins.
I had a tin of this when I was a newer newb than I am now. I liked it lots then...wonder why I didnt re-order; just stupidity I suppose.
Me thinks its time for another go at it.
Tilbury has already become a favorite of mine and will be a regular in my slowly growing cellar.
When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.

Great review. I've got a tin I bought a couple years ago and just never got around to trying it. After reading this I think it's time.
A good friend of mind sent me a very generous sample of this and it's definitely a keeper for me!
Thanks for the review, John. Tilbury had been quite a while in my weekly rotation and I got a bit bored of it. I guess my taste is changing...

Going South - if you don't have a lot of sailing experience and are looking for a boat that has performance and comfort I would look at the Jenneau 379 - sister company to Beneteau built in South Carolina and one beautiful boat. I have a Beneteau 31 and looking to upgrade and yes while the first series is fast you sacrifice some comfort.
Someone told me once you know if you have the right boat if you use it a lot - we use our Beneteau every weekend weather permitting, its just a little snug. The 379 has a great cockpit the dual wheels gives you more pass through room, the keel has a long bulb, the gear on the performance version includes mylar sails, upgraded winches, folding prop, upgraded standing and running rigging. Add the composite wheel option and Simrad and you have as perfect a boat as you can find for around $200k. I have looked at every Beneteau, Jenneau, Catalina, Hunter, Hanse, Dufour from 35 - 42 feet. For the money the Jenneau is sexy, fast, roomy...worth a look!!
And if I can add something here too - if you have a spouse or partner you want them to feel comfortable to sail the boat too. When looking at boats we sea trialed a C&C 99, the Beneteau 31 and a Bavaria (cant remember the model). The C&C accelerated like a bat out of hell in a small breeze - I loved it. My wife however was petrified at the thought of having to handle a racing type boat with Kevlar sails, adjustable stay, cars controlled from the cockpit - just a lot of lines, a lot of heeling over. In the three years since she has become perfectly at ease sailing our 31 which is a very easy sailing boat that still gets 7.5 knots with her assym flying. She has brought up her skills and I have found that 'speed' differences when cruising are immaterial between a race boat and a cruiser. A folding prop and an asymmetrical spinnaker will get you to max hull speed on any cruiser, therefore if you want to go faster get a longer boat! (The formula for max speed is square root of lwl x 1.34.) A racier rig will accelerate faster, will respond quicker but in terms of getting from marina A to anchor spot B in a good breeze you can't go measurably faster with a First than a properly equipped Oceanis.
Also it's not just your preferences - it's also the people you will be sailing with. If you take people out who are new to sailing and you rip along heeled over at 8 - 9 knots in a first 407 having the time of your life you may never see your friends on board again. On the other hand of your friends are already of the race set you will have no shortage of volunteers come race day if you have a First. I am in a marina that has a lot of racers and a lot of cruisers - the racers are there in droves on race weekends and typically don't take many overnight trips having removed their anchor and chain, dinghies, dogs and other accouterments essential to cruising. The cruisers come on Friday afternoon, head out for the weekend and come back Sunday afternoon. I can't say one group is having any more fun than the other but I can say I dont see many Firsts at anchor in a quiet harbour nor do I see many Oceanis winning trophies.

MotoCzysz is a Portland, Oregon, based motorcycle company that intended to compete in the MotoGP.[1] The C1 prototype has an engine with perfect balance and does not need a balance shaft. Some of the patented innovations include a slipper clutch with twin clutches, a unique front suspension, and many others.
In October 2009, MotoCzysz and Bajaj Auto announced a joint venture to create a green automobile.[2] Analysts speculated that the vehicle could be a hybrid vehicle.[3][4] MotoCzysz teamed with Remy Electric Motors LLC to develop an electric drive system for four-wheeled vehicles.[5] The company then signed a deal with TAC Motors of Brazlia in 2012 to supply those drives for TAC Motors' Stark SUV.[5]
The C1 features a carbon fiber frame that exhibits more stiffness than most other motorcycles.[6] The frame also serves as the bike's airbox.
The 990cc four cylinder engine is mounted to the frame longitudinally, rather than transversely as on most similarly configured motorcycles. A transverse arrangement fights a bike's gyroscopic tendency to stand up when leaned over and applying throttle. The C1, on the other hand, in order to negate the resulting gyroscopic forces of the longitudinal orientation, has its lengthwise-mounted inline 4 engine cut in half, with the resulting crankshaft halves counter-rotating. Thus, the bike handles with no noticeable gyroscopic force from the engine.[7]
Two of the bike's four throttle bodies are controlled mechanically, while the other two are controlled electronically by the ECU, hypothetically smoothing power delivery. The ECU-controlled throttle bodies can be adjusted by computer for refinement of the throttle curve.
Unfortunately for the company, the FIM and Dorna reduced the engine capacity for a MotoGP bike to 0.8 l (800 CCs) for the 2007 season, rendering the C1's configuration invalid for competition in that class. Michael Czysz commented in a blog post[8] that they are looking towards racing the bike in either AMA or WSB competition.
As of mid-2010, MotoCzysz was offering to take down payments towards 50 MotoGP replica bikes offered for $100,000.[9] A production date was unspecified.
The C1 was recognized with Robb Report MotorCycling's 2007 Achievement in Design Award.[10]
The E1pc all-electric sportsbike[11] was announced in June 2009 as an entrant for the TTXGP but did not finish the race. In 2010, it took first place in the 2010 TT Zero event at the Isle of Man TT, and set a new course record.[12]
For the 2011 TT Zero Race, MotoCzysz riders Michael Rutter and Mark Miller took first and second places and for 2012 the same riders finished first and third.[citation needed]
In the 2013 TT Zero Race, Rutter again won at a new record race-average speed of 109.675 mph,[13] with team-mate Miller suffering breakdown.[13][citation needed]

Moseley has procedure to repair non-throwing shoulder
Now done for the season is two-fifths of the Padres' starting rotation from the start of the year.
Only a few days after left-hander Clayton Richard had arthroscopic surgery on his throwing shoulder, Padres right-hander Dustin Moseley was similarly sidelined for the remainder of the season by surgery Wednesday, but on his non-throwing shoulder. Moseley, felled twice this season at the plate by the dislocation of his left shoulder while swinging a bat and making contact, had the shoulder capsule tightened and labrum repaired by an arthroscopic procedure.
"It was pretty much what the doctors expected," said manager Bud Black. "It went well. They expect a full recovery and he'll be ready to go in spring training. It was pretty straightforward."
The odd part about this is that while the shoulder might've continued popping out of place when Moseley swung the bat or had to reach with his glove hand on a fielding play -- and gotten worse with every incident -- it didn't keep him from pitching. Indeed, after the second incident in a home game against the Arizona Diamondbacks last week, Moseley remained on the mound for another four innings.
"We were trying to think if we'd ever seen this with a pitcher," said Black, referring to the non-throwing shoulder issue. "I don't think so."
Moseley's last turn in the rotation was taken by lefty Wade LeBlanc, who was immediately returned to Triple-A Tucson. With the day off today, the Padres won't need to fill an opening in the rotation until next Tuesday in New York, a start that conceivably could go to LeBlanc or long reliever Anthony Bass.
Uh ... oops?
Rare as it was to hear a manager address the non-throwing shoulder injury of a pitcher, it was not at all unusual to hear Black report that Moseley's procedure had gone splendidly. You expected any different?
"My history with surgeons has always been "Surgery went well,' " said Black. "I've never heard a surgeon say, "Hey, man, I (messed) up. Sorry. Bad day.' Like a pitcher saying: "I started off great, then it got away from me.' I've never heard that."
Call it a bit of Black humor.
"I've had three (surgeries) on my knee, one on my elbow and one on my shoulder," said Black. "Every one went "OK." Five different doctors, too. Every one of them said, "Went well. You'll be fine.' "
Draftees inked
The Padres signed their seventh-round pick, Matt Wisler, a right-handed pitcher out of high school in Bryan, Ohio. His reported signing bonus of a half-million dollars is the second-highest amount spent this season for a major league draft pick from beyond the third round.
"We think Matt is a very projectable pitcher who showed great improvement towards the end of the season," said Padres general manager Jed Hoyer. "We budgeted aggressively for this year's draft and we plan to bring a lot of young talent into the organization."
Also signed was infielder Casey McElroy, the Padres' 11th-round pick out of Auburn University. The Padres have yet, however, to sign four of their first six picks and have until Aug. 15 to get their draftees under contract.

NYIT Center for Human Resource Studies offers programs in workforce management that prepare you to meet the challenges of managing and retaining the employees you need to achieve key goals. All programs are based on up-to-date and action-oriented techniques and information.
Each HR workshop we offer has been pre-approved by SHRM for Professional Development Credits (PDCs) and by the HR Certification Institute for recertification credit. If you hold SHRM-CP or SHRM-SCP certification you will need 60 PDCs by the end of your certification cycle to recertify. If you hold PHR, SPHR, or GPHR certification, you must earn 60 credits by the end of your certification cycle in order to re-certify and maintain your certification(s). Each hour of an approved seminar or workshop counts as one PDC and one credit toward HRCI recertification. There are no limits on the number of workshop education PDCs or credits you can earn towards recertification.
What makes us different? Our recertification programs add value in these ways:
Make a smart investment in your own professional development—learn about the latest developments in HR while earning credits towards your recertification.
As the economy continues to improve from the depths of the Great Recession, employers remain faced with challenges. In order to grow their organizations, they must simultaneously ensure employee retention, motivation, and engagement. However, existing HR programs may not help to achieve these goals. In addition, talented employees are finding more job opportunities than before, and are open to changing employers. This program will interactively explore participant and best practice approaches to addressing employees' needs while responding to financial pressures. We will review trend data on employee retention, motivation, and engagement, the dilemma some HR programs create, the process successful organizations follow in developing alternative reward programs with positive return on investment (ROI), and best practice HR programs.
At the end of this session, participants will be able to:

Embedded Linux - Programming and debugging. Where to start?
I have been scouring the net trying to find a clear definitive guide to getting started with embedded Linux. I have only found vague answers to my questions. I really am hoping that someone can give me some clear answers and advice.
I am used to programming microprocessors with an IDE and JTAG debugger. I really like all the benefits of developing with an IDE. The biggest advantage for me is being able to single step and view variables at run time.
Can I do this with a Linux based board? Everything I have read so far refers to terminals, make files etc. Programming and debugging this way can be time consuming especially when you are new to whole environment. I have been through this before.
I have seen some references to Eclipse that have the ability to set break points and single step but it wasn't clear how this worked. Can you literally single step your code on the target device and if so how exactly does it work?
I would like to buy a development kit with an ARM but I want to be sure that the kit is well documented, has sample code, is preloaded with Linux and will allow me to develop and debug with an IDE. I looked at the TS series from Technologic Systems. Is this a good choice for getting started?
Debugging and Getting Started
Well, maybe some people might find it otherwise. Almost all developers(even for commercial purposes) use cscope and vi for for linux based development(Atleast i have seen a lot of them). Yes IDE based source code navigation/debugging is easier, and maybe the __visual__ itself presents more life for some people, but that is an individual choice.
To get started with embedded programming, yes TS series of boards are very good, __but__ mind that most of them __does not__ have JTAG debugging capability. the JTAG pins are there, but they are used for programming the onboard CPLD and is not connect to any processor chipset / flash, which means you cannot debug or burn the flash using a JTAG debugger.
But said that __TS__ series of boards(i have a TS-7200) are good ones to start with., you can hunt around for other boards as well.

Encinitas icons rise above surfing Madonna glitter
At Kinsman's urging, I spent part of an afternoon last year with White in his Leucadia home shortly after he was diagnosed with cancer. His vocal cords had been cut out, leaving him nearly mute. His eyes had been operated on twice, making painting (the solitary counterpoint to his music) difficult.
Though he had every reason to sink into blue quicksand, White cracked me up with his sardonic gallow's humor.
Here's how he summed up his situation: "I was a painter, and I got glaucoma. I was a singer, and I got throat cancer. Thank God I'm not a gigolo."
As far as I know, White and Hartley never met, though I suspect the two gifted men would have lit each other up.
Like Hartley, White had a deep soft spot for the elderly. In the early '90s, White performed charity concerts for the North Coast Alzheimer's Center in Solana Beach.
"Alzheimer's, schmalzheimers," White told a reporter. "As far as I'm concerned, anyone over the age of 70 should get what they want."
With a glint in his eye, Hartley once said of his gray-haired autobiographers: "They can write whatever they want. As long as it's not pornographic."
I imagine the old teacher, like the younger White, would have understood if a life's story happened to turn a bit blue.

ELKO COUNTY, Nevada -- A woman missing foralmost two months has been found alive, but her husband is still missing.
Rita Chretien , 56, was located Friday afternoon in Elko, Nevada. Albert Chretien, 59, is still missing.
The Elko County Sheriff's Office says two men riding ATVs in the remote area came across a van near the Bruneau River in northern Nevada near the Idaho border. Inside the van was Rita Chretien.
The two men rode nearly ten miles on their ATVs to get cell service and called Elko County dispatchers.
The two men helped guide an air ambulance crew to the van's location, and the medical helicopter took Rita Chretien to St. Luke's Hospital in Twin Falls for treatment. She was listed in fair condition Friday night and remained so Saturday.
The Twin Falls Police Department interviewed her at the hospital to get any information about where her husband might be.
Rita Chretien told a detective her husband left the van on March 22 to find help. She said he had a GPS unit and was walking on State Route 225 looking for help.
The Elko County Sheriff says the couple took a wrong turn on March 19 and ended up stranded due to bad weather conditions.
The sheriff's department says that area has had heavy snow and rain through the winter and spring, causing the river to flood the road. It says the road is virtually impassable, and the van got stuck.
The sheriff says Rita Chretien survived by drinking water from a nearby creek and rationing portions of a large bag of trailmix the couple had in the van.
The Elko County Sheriff's Office says it plans to work with the Owyhee County Sheriff's Office to begin a search for Albert Chretien Saturday morning. Rescue crews will drive part of the way, and then they will go by ATV in an attempt to find him.
The couple's family has been searching since March 31. The last time the Chretiens had been seen was in Baker City, Oregon, where they stopped to fill their vehicle with gas.
On April 3, Baker City Police were contacted by a local business owner who said the couple was in her store on March 19 inquiring about tourist destinations in the Baker City area. They were given the tourist information. That is the same day Rita Chretien told detectives they'd made a wrong turn and gotten stuck.
The Baker and Malheur Sheriff's offices searched by land, and by air for the couple. Search efforts were scaled back after 23 days.
The pair is from British Columbia and were driving to Las Vegas, Nevada for a trade show when they disappeared.
Albert Chretien is 59 years old. He is about 5'6 tall and weighs about 175 pounds. He was last seen wearing a khaki shirt, black jeans, and a hat.

Dust Storms Over the Arabian Sea
A weather forecast for the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on January 31, 2008, called for high winds and the possibility of dust storms. Two days later, the predictions came to pass—with a vengeance. The MODIS on NASA's Terra satellite captured this image of Oman, UAE, Iran, Pakistan, the Gulf of Oman, and the Arabian Sea. This image shows thick dust plumes, bordered by thick banks of clouds, blowing over the ocean waters.
Vast sand seas cover much of the Arabian Peninsula, and smaller pockets of sand occupy Iran and Pakistan. This picture shows dust plumes blowing southward from Iran and Pakistan, fanning out over the Gulf of Oman. Farther south, a massive cloud of dust stretches over the Arabian Sea. Although some dust plumes appear to originate near the southeastern coast of Oman, much of the dust likely originates farther inland on the peninsula.

At least 99 people were killed as typhoon Mirinae slammed Vietnam, according to a report of the government's website on Thursday. The people's committee of central province Phu Yen, the hardest-hit province by typhoon Mirinae, said floods and strong winds have claimed at least 69 lives in this single province. The provincial people's committee of Binh Dinh said that there have been so far 13 deaths and three other missing in the typhoon, making the province the second worst-hit.
The third hardest-hit central province by the typhoon is Khanh Hoa with 12 deaths and one missing, said the provincial people's committee.
Central highland Gia Lai reported four deaths and central Ninh Thuan province reported one death.
According to the National Center for Hydro-meteorological Forecasting, heavy rain keeps battering central provinces of Vietnam. The forecasting agency also warns of a high risk of landslides and flash flooding as water level in rivers keep rising.

MCA: Release Kok, RPK from ISA
KUALA LUMPUR: The MCA Central Committee has called for Member of Parliament Teresa Kok (DAP – Seputeh) and blogger Raja Petra Kamarudin, who are detained under the Internal Security Act (ISA), to be released.
MCA president Datuk Seri Ong Ka Ting said Kok and Raja Petra should be investigated under other laws and be charged in court if there was evidence.
"To prevent possible future abuse of the ISA, the central committee calls for a comprehensive review of the ISA so that it will apply strictly to cases relating to terrorism and subversive elements.
"There should also be a mechanism for checks and balances in the use of the ISA," said Ka Ting after chairing a six-hour meeting at Wisma MCA yesterday.
He also said that the detention of reporter Tan Hoon Cheng for 18 hours under the ISA was totally uncalled for and the explanation given for her detention was unacceptable.
On party matters, Ka Ting said the MCA had acquired the balance of the 20.23% equity in Wisma MCA Sdn Bhd from Koperasi Jayadiri Malaysia Bhd for a total consideration of RM27.6mil.
The sale and purchase agreement was signed on Aug 15, 2008.
"This means that the party headquarters building is now wholly owned by the MCA," said Ong.
He said the purchase price was based on the basis of "willing-buyer, willing-seller" after taking into account the current market value of Wisma MCA as valued by a professional valuer.
MCA vice-president Datuk Ong Tee Keat hit out at Pakatan Rakyat for calling on Barisan Nasional MPs who opposed the ISA to emulate de facto Law Minister Datuk Zaid Ibrahim and resign.
He said the arrests were not sanctioned by the Cabinet and there was no reason why Ministers should resign.
Tee Keat also called on the authorities to expunge the ISA detention record of Sin Chew Daily reporter Tan Hoon Cheng who was released on Saturday after being detained for 18 hours.

Update, 13 February 2014
Ivanpah - the world's largest solar power plant - today started delivering power to the California grid
IT TAKES a couple of seconds to work out what's going on in this photo. You're looking at a pair of heliostat mirrors – sunflower-like reflectors that turn to track the sun during the day. These are just two of hundreds of thousands such mirrors arranged in the Mojave Desert in California, all part of the Ivanpah solar power project.
Their job is to concentrate the sun's rays onto boilers located on three central towers, turning water into steam that drives turbines. The site (below) covers 14 square kilometres and will produce at least 377 megawatts of electricity, not much below the summer output of a typical nuclear power station in the US and enough to power 140,000 homes in California.
Up and running (Image: Jamey Stillings)
"It is like watching the creation of a huge piece of land art, a contemporary Nazca Lines of sorts," says photographer Jamey Stillings.
The project has been controversial. Native American groups have objected, claiming it will impact burial grounds. The project was also held up while desert tortoises – a threatened species – were relocated away from the Ivanpah site. It highlights the fact that even renewable energy projects can have some adverse environmental impacts.
"How do we balance the protection of select species of animals and plants at a specific site with the potential benefits of reducing our fossil fuel use through renewable energy production?" asks Stillings.

I really wanted to go this year but didn't make it. And it would be so cool to go next year...with an new intact baby boy... but considering my due date is March 26, I don't think I'll be making this one, either! I just can't see either being on the brink of labor or out with a very new newborn in late March!

SW Florida weather: High temperature near 90 today
The heat and humidity will be back in full force today with temperatures near 90 degrees.
Our temperatures this morning will get a bit of a jumpstart as they remain in the lower 70s. Mostly sunny conditions will be in control of our skies through the first half of the day, with a few more clouds bubbling up during the afternoon. Highs today will climb into the upper 80s to lower 90s, however it looks like our record of 95 degrees will stay in the record books for one more year.
As high pressure keeps its grip on our weather, rain prospects will remain fairly low today with the mention of only an isolated late day shower near Interstate 75. Tonight, skies will go mostly clear and temperatures will settle into the lower 70s.

I would like to achieve the following:
I have a dynamic ip, but I use dyndns so I can access my pc anytime with something.dyndns.org
I have a domain which I use only to access the files on my own pc which acts like a server, always running.
I can't point mydomain.com to my IP because it's dynamic and changes from time to time. And pointing mydomain.com to a dyndns host is not possible (A record). Pointing www.mydomain.com (notice the www) is okay, that's what I'm using now (CNAME record).
What I'd like to do that mydomain.com without www to always point to my dyndns host or my pc.
I have another domain that is unused at the time.
This is my theory: I add a ns0 CNAME record of myotherdomain.com to something.dyndns.org. It'll be ns0.myotherdomain.com
I add the ns0.myotherdomain.com as my main domain's NS.
This way my main domain's NS is my computer, right? On my pc, in my own nameserver config, I somehow make the main domain's A record point to localhost, so eventually typing mydomain.com will work properly.
If this theory would work, how could I set up a very very basic but own nameserver under windows?
And yes, I have a hosting, but in this case I'd like to use my OWN pc as a server.
Erm, mind if I tell you a MORE simple solution to achieve that? Go to your ISP and tell them nicely that you want a static IP. Should work…
I asked them yesterday, still no reply. Will call them I think. They list the service to business customers only. I hope there is some way..
Anyway, if I change nameservers of my domain, but the A record points to the previous nameserver, then mydomain.com will point to where it was pointing before the NS change? It's kind of messed up, my friend tested my link and it's displaying different page than it displays for me. Both cleared browser cache and flushed dns. Weird..

About the album
A player's "prime directive", Dave Holland has decided, should be to spread joy while making creative music. His role model in this regard remains Duke Ellington, whose melodies were the lure to draw listeners deeper into the world of jazz interaction; so it is with the Holland Quintet. Prime Directive, the album, picks where the Grammy-nominated Points of View left off, and is the stronger for the addition of Chris Potter, widely regarded as one of the most exciting young saxophonists in North America.

RICE TWP. – Township auditors Janeann Lokken and Felicia Bierzynski spoke out against Supervisor George Venesky on Tuesday in response to a letter he wrote criticizing conduct during the auditors' annual reorganization meeting.
In the letter addressed to Bierzynski, he confronted, among other things, absence of the Pledge of Allegiance before the meeting, no agenda copies for the public, ignorance of the Sunshine Act, which sets standards for public involvement in government business, and ignorance of the auditors' responsibilities to Rice Township.
He also said Bierzynski has never attended the state's auditor training courses.
At the end of the letter, he recommended that Bierzynski resign from the board.
Lokken, now the auditors' chairperson who took over the position from Bierzynski, said she had been feeling ill and, before the meeting, agreed with the other auditors to keep their proceedings brief.
She said her husband is a proud veteran and forgetting the Pledge of Allegiance was an oversight, but unintentional.
She said she would gladly attend a training class if the supervisors would ask them to perform an audit.
As is the practice of many townships, an accounting firm is hired to perform the annual state-mandated audit while elected auditors approve compensation for elected supervisors who are also township employees, in this case, Chairman Miller Stella's salary of $200, as he is also the township roadmaster.
Bierzynski said she felt Venesky's letter was antagonistic.
This is nothing but someone looking for trouble, Bierzynski said. We're not looking for trouble. We took this job to do an audit.
At the end of the meeting, Venesky defended his letter and again expressed his displeasure that the Pledge of Allegiance was forgotten.
I stand by my letter, Venesky said. Next year, you could do a better job.
In other business, in his report to township supervisors, Fire Chief Paul Eyerman said the volunteer fire company is short on members qualified to drive the township's fire trucks.
He said he is working to remedy the deficiency, but, until there is a resolution, Wright Township Volunteer Fire Company will respond to Rice Township emergency calls when drivers are not available.
