McNealy's cold feet and other tales of Sun

Sun to buy Opteron server maker, reclaim co-founderFebruary 10, 2004
McNealy joined Sun's other co-founders, Vinod Khosla, Andy Bechtolsheim and Bill Joy, at a panel discussion at the Computer History Museum here to reminisce about the server specialist's past and prognosticate about the future.
Khosla said the McDonald's meal took place just after he and McNealy met with venture capitalists and got Sun's first funding commitment. "We went out and sat in the parking lot. Scott said to me, 'I don't know if I really want to do it.' So I took him to an upscale dinner at McDonald's on Page Mill Road" in Palo Alto, Calif., he said, where he put the screws on McNealy to resign from his $40,000-a-year job at Onyx Systems.
"Vinod asked me, 'When are you quitting?'" McNealy recounted. When McNealy balked, Khosla countered, saying: "'You can't back out on me now. You're a founder.' "I said, 'Oh, OK.' It was that quick," McNealy said.
Khosla left Sun in 1986 to become a general partner at venture capitalist firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, and Joy followed suit in 2005. Bechtolsheim left Sun in 1995 to found gigabit Ethernet start-up Granite Systems, later acquired by Cisco Systems. But he rejoined the company in 2004, when Sun bought his next start-up, Kealia, to provide the foundation of its new "Galaxy" line of x86 servers.
The Apple connection
It's no secret that Sun once tried to acquire Apple Computer, but Joy noted that it wasn't the only near-union between the Silicon Valley companies. "We almost merged with Apple two other times," he said.
There were other alliances with Apple that fell through, Joy added: an attempt with Microsoft and the Mac maker to create a common file protocol; an attempt with Apple to create a merged user interface; and an attempt to persuade Apple, when it was moving away from Motorola's 680x0 processor family, to switch to Sun's Sparc processors rather than the PowerPC chips it ultimately chose (and began abandoning this week with Intel-based Macs).
"We got very close to having Apple use Sparc. That almost happened," Joy said.
In total, "there were six very, very close encounters" with Apple, he noted. That none of them worked out was a "personal disappointment" said Joy, who spent years as Sun's chief technology officer.
McNealy added that he went to Steve Jobs' house to try to hammer out the user interface agreement. The Apple co-founder and CEO was "sitting under a tree, reading 'How to Make a Nuclear Bomb,'" with bare feet and wearing jeans with holes torn in the knees, McNealy said. The interface work, though, "never went anywhere," he said.
Khosla also lavished praise on Jobs, who he said was a role model, along with Oracle CEO Larry Ellison and Intel's former CEO Andy Grove. Jobs is the kind of person "who passionately, religiously believes his own ideas. No matter what anybody else says, he's going to push them through," and that determination and self-confidence is in large part why he succeeds in doing so, Khosla said.
McNealy has praised Jobs on occasion, but he acknowledged on Wednesday that he doesn't have time to listen to his own iPod and forecasted doom for the popular digital music player. The right place to store music is on the network, where it can be accessed by many devices, he said, much like the right place to store voice mail is on a central server.
"Your iPod is like your home answering machine. It's a temporary thing," McNealy said. "It's going to be hard to sell a lot of iPods five years from now, when every cell phone is going to be able to automatically access your library wherever you are."

The music IS on the server. The server is your PC running iTunes. The iPod client connects to that server when it needs a music update.

Microsoft and Sun aren't doing any research and
development, unless reverse-engineering a copy of
the latest hot startup's product counts as "R&D".
The biggest server manufacturer today is Google,
and that's where the threat to Sun in coming
from. Almost anybody can put together an x86
cluster to perform semi-specialized functions,
such as search farm, web server, verilog farm,
compute cluster, etc. As long as x86 machines
provide a 2-3 price/performance advantage over
SPARC, Sun is doomed. If Sun goes to the x86
hardware, then they're just another Linux box maker.
For the time being, Sun's business advantages are
its sales force, its installed base, its brand,
and its customer's sunk costs (custom software).
From a technological point of view, there are no
meaningful barriers to entry.
The reason why we don't see a large number of
startups making Linux-cluster servers to take
away Sun's core business is. . . . . . . . . . .
there's no money in it.

I'm sure I'm missing some really basic step. I can't find all the stuff from the free 5.5 content kit.
In the past after a download all I had to do was root around for a bit and play with the various ways to add things to a scene to find all my content. But I can't find any of the buildings from the free content pack. It said it was installing to my preset folder but when I click the arrow beside Create, there aren't any new buildings. I tried opening, importing, and manually searching. I've now clicked like every button in the program.
There are a million new mats, which by themselves are totally worth the download, but I was hoping to use the small cottage and the cathedral in my comic. I just can't find them.
I used the fix utility posted here to fix the .exe files before installing.
Joking with my husband last night, we agreed I'm going to be a computer expert by the time I get my comic finished because of all the stuff I've had to learn just to get the software/downloads/plugins to work, nevermind learning the softwares themselves!

Contract Fights to get Uglier as Budgets Shrink
July 16, 2012
Contractors and their lawyers are bracing for an era of bitter legal fights, as severe budget cuts force agencies to reduce, scale down and terminate contracts, perhaps as early as this year.
"It's going to be ugly," said John Jaeger, president of YRCI, a human resources and acquisition support company, in an interview.
The disputes won't be over whether agencies can cancel contracts so much as how much compensation is paid to the terminated contractor, said Elizabeth Ferrell, a partner at McKenna, Long and Aldridge law firm.
"The issue is what's the economic impact on the contractor and whether the contractor can recover additional monies as a result of that adverse action," Ferrell added.

'Agents of SHIELD' episode 19: 'The Only Light In The Darkness' promo brings Skye to tearsAdd to Favorites | Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
The stakes continue to get higher in "Marvel's Agents of SHIELD." In a promo for Season 1, episode 19, "The Only Light In The Darkness," Ward (Brett Dalton) seems successful in his plan to seduce Skye (Chloe Bennet) and get her password from her as she ends the promo in tears.
Hopefully Ward doesn't play Skye as easily as he thinks he can, and hopefully the SHIELD agents realize they have a snake in their midst. But Coulson (Clark Gregg) will be otherwise occupied, as the trailer reveals that episode 19 will introduce Amy Acker's the Cellist, Coulson's love interest who was first mentioned in "The Avengers."
"Agents of SHIELD" airs Tuesdays on ABC at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Zap2it's Terri Schwartz made an appearance on the April 16 episode of Hulu's "The Morning After" to argue why now is the best time to start watching "Agents of SHIELD" if you aren't already. Check it out below:

April 23, 2012
If Mathias Ward does what he intends -- play in his third NCAA tournament next March -- he will make Montana men's basketball history. It would be fitting for the player who is already setting new academic standards.
Consider: A year from now, Ward, who will be a fifth-year senior for the Griz next winter, will leave the University with an undergraduate degree and a pair of master's degrees.
Three NCAA tournaments, which would be a first for a Griz basketball player, and three degrees in one career? Forget the Montana annals and start researching the NCAA record books.
Three months before Ward was born, in 1990, the Washington legislature adopted the Learning by Choice Law. It was not written or voted for with him in mind, but it is doubtful many have reaped the benefits of the progressive legislation that Ward has.
One of the components of the Learning by Choice Law is Running Start, which allows qualified high school juniors in Washington to begin taking courses that double as both high school and college credit and accelerate the process through the education system.
Ward, who recently was named one of Montana's 33 student-athletes on the Winter Academic All-Big Sky Conference team (complete list below), qualified and took two years of classes at Tacoma Community College.
When he enrolled at Montana in the fall of 2008 he already had 60 credits on his transcript.
Ward, of Gig Harbor, Wash., earned his finance degree last spring after his third year at Montana, will add an MBA next month and a master's in accounting next May, all accomplished with an enviable GPA and a reliable mid-range jump shot.
"With two graduate degrees, I think it will differentiate me from other college graduates," Ward said. "There are so many people out there saturating the job market that I think anything you can do to get above and beyond will set you apart.
"Plus I'll have the basketball background, and there are a lot of good characteristics that I can take from that like teamwork, hard work and balancing your sport and your studies."
Ward's story sounds seamless. It wasn't. He redshirted his first year at Montana, and without basketball, the rest of his priorities slipped.
"I really wasn't used to the level of freedom I had," Ward said. "Plus I wasn't playing as well as I wanted to, and I kind of let that affect my grades. I stopped trying hard in the classroom, and I shouldn't have allowed that to happen."
Wards parents, Brian and Stephanie, had always stressed the importance of academics in their household. With Ward gone wayward, Stephanie stepped in and got her son back on the right track.
"My mom kind of kicked me in the butt a little bit," Ward says. "I got it figured out, and now I'm doing well in both school and basketball."
Griz basketball coach Wayne Tinkle, when asked about Ward's first year, smoothes the rough edges of Ward's version of the story with a laugh and an explanation.
"Struggling to Mathias means something different than it does to you and me. Trust me on that."
Then he added, "That's part of the maturation process. He wasn't playing for the first time in a while, and he dropped his guard a little bit.
"But he refocused his studies as his role on the team started to expand, and he's become a great representative of our program and the University."
With an MBA in hand, Ward had the option of toeing the waters of the business world in May, but he'll instead return and join fellow senior-to-be Will Cherry on a team that should be one of the Big Sky Conference favorites next winter.
"I looked into moving on, but I came here to play out my eligibility, and I wanted to honor the commitment I made to the coaches," Ward said.
"And if we can make the tournament again, that would be three times in my career, and that would be really special."

I have been living here for 14 years. Ever since I moved in, I felt a sense of family connection. The apartment is spacious and bright. Whenever I had a problem, the maintenance crew are on it within the hour. Very kind, friendly and nice staff and crew. The owner is one of the nicest people I have ever met.
The area is very safe and quiet with enough parking for everyone.
The management does a great job in making sure that the apartments are nice, welcoming and well maintained. They also pay close attention to the landscape, and they do a great job at it as the place looks fantastic.
With the refurbishing of Columbia Pike just 2 blocks south of the apartments, a brand new Giant had opened its doors recently. There are several Thai and Spanish restaurants around the complex, as well as Irish and American that came in recently. Not to forget, dry cleaners, hair salons, CVS, RiteAid, 7Eleven, Dunkin Donuts and McDonald. Everything within five minutes walk.
Bus stops are everywhere if you need to catch a ride to several close by metro stations (Pentagon, Pentagon City, Clarendon or Ballston Common).
If you want a nice and affordable place to live, at Fillmore Garden you are in for a treat.
I would not live anywhere else.

Can you hear title and artist name by pressing on the center button as you can with the Apple In-Ear earphones?

No, pressing the center button once allows you to pause/play your music. Holding the button will allow you to access Voice Control on the iPhone 4/iPod or Siri on the iPhone 4S.
Quickly triple-pressing the center button allows you to go back one track. Double-pressing allows you to go forward one.

Heath SlaterHeath Miller
- Birthdate: 07/15/1983 (age 31)
- Height: 6'2"
- Weight: 216 Ib
Miller trained at WWA4 wrestling school in Atla...
On being a part of the first season of NXT: "Well you said it man, we were Guinea pigs. We had no idea what to expect. I actually had a couple set backs. I was supposed to come up earlier with a couple of guys who were going to be vampire bikers, but that fell through and then at the time they had ECW going and they were bringing up new talent like Shawn Spears and Ricky Otriz. I was going to be one of those guys but what ended up happening was I broke my hand, so that never happened. So NXT kind of saved me, since they tried to bring me up a few times, I was brought up with a bunch of really great guys and it helped a lot. But we had no idea what the plan was. Originally we thought we were going to be living in a house all under one roof training and stuff, but it just turned out to be like game show type deal where we had literally no idea what was going on. There was a hot dog eating contest and then we had to run up in the stand and chug soda; so it was like is this even wrestling? It's funny you know because people out there think we all knew what were doing but honestly we had no clue what we were doing. It was great we all got to be out there, on TV, showing our craft, but it was one of those things were we didn't know what was going on, but we enjoyed it."
On if anything was off limits in the Nexus debut: "They told us nothing. They told us to go out there make sure it looks like a bomb went off. So we did. You have big guys, who basically have been given the worst food possible, locked into a broom closet, changing, we had no room and treated like crap. Sometimes, you know guys, if you don't lock the cage, basically, if the dogs get out of the cage, the dogs are going to bite. That's exactly what we did. We all came together and we were tired of it, we shouldn't be treated like that. We destroyed the WWE ring and John Cena and CM Punk and anyone else who got in out way."
Slater also talked about liking wrestling as a kid, WWE headquarters, his travel tips and more.

Coventry Street
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (December 2009)
Coventry Street is a short London street, within the City of Westminster, running from Piccadilly Circus to Leicester Square. The street is the main conduit between Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square and at the weekend up to 150,000 people walk from one to another along the street. Buses travelling south from Regent Street or west along Shaftesbury Avenue inevitably pass along the top of the street, where it meets The Haymarket, with the consequence that the street can be heavily congested.
The street has been a centre for high-volume food outlets.[1] The first (1909) J. Lyons and Co. Corner House was on the west corner with Rupert Street. [2] Platinum Lace Gentlemen's Club & Bar, Trocadero shopping centre, the Café De Paris, and the Prince of Wales Theatre are all located on this street.
Charles Hirsch, a French bookseller, sold French literature and ran a clandestine trade in expensive pornography from his bookshop "Librairie Parisienne" in Coventry Street between 1890 and 1900.[3][4][5]

Petrino Takes $550K Hit on Mansion Sale
Bobby Petrino's exit from Arkansas is about complete. His mansion has sold for $1.7 million, which is $550,000 less than he paid for it, according to ArkansasSports360.com on Tuesday.
The web site cited "a warranty deed filed Monday in the Washington County Circuit Clerk's office. The report said Petrino and his wife bought the mansion in March of 2008 for $2.25 million.
The buyers likely knew that Petrino was anxious to get rid of his property as he made a hasty exit thanks to a scandal that rocked Fayetteville, where the coach was fired after an inappropriate relationship with a woman in the athletic department was revealed.
Plus, once his golf gear was dropped off at Goodwill, you knew the house was coming next.

Washington State is barely on anyone's radar when it comes to college football, so fans on the East Coast might not be following what has transpired in Mike Leach's first season in Pullman. It has a striking resemblance to Randy Edsall's first season in College Park.
After a 2-1 start – including a win over Football Championship Subdivision power Eastern Washington – the Cougars are in free fall, having lost their last seven games, and they've gone winless in the Pac-12 Conference.

The recession and slow recovery have forced American households to tighten their belts and reign in their spending and borrowing, but has any group taken on this behavior more avidly than others? N.C. State University economist Mike Walden responds.
Tourism is big business in the world, nation and here in North Carolina. When someone visits our state's many tourist attractions, they create income, jobs, spending and tax revenue. Today, there's an increased focused on tourists from China, says N.C. State University economist Mike Walden.

If you haven't had a chance to check out our new traveler profiles, then this is the perfect time to do it.
Part of what makes indie travel great is all the meaningful connections one makes with both locals and other travelers. So what we wanted to do was to give indie travelers a place to get together and share their adventures with other like-minded people. These traveler profiles are short and sweet and offer a variety of information about each person's round the world trip (or for those who have not yet gone – their dream round the world trip).
Each Tuesday, though, we are going to highlight one traveler from our profiles and offer up a little more information about them. Our inaugural traveler is Bob Ross.
1. What is your #1 tip for those struggling with making the decision to go?
There's a saying, "you'll regret the things you didn't do in life more than the things you did" and that definitely applies to travel. When you get older, do you want to tell stories about the round the world trip you almost did or tell actual stories of your adventures and the places you visited? For me, I didn't want to wait until I was old and retired to travel – how would I get the 40 foot RV across the ocean? ;-) If you have the time and finances, I would wholeheartedly encourage you to travel.
2. What is your #1 tip for those planning their round the world trip right now?
Take time to plan, especially if you're getting a rtw airfare ticket. The first step would be to decide where you want to go (I browsed a lot of picture sites looking for scenic spots). Once you know that, figure out what destinations you have to fly between and which can be done overland. This will allow you to maximize your flights. The one downside of rtw airfares is being (almost) locked into a schedule; it leaves less room for spontaneity or staying extra long at a spot you like. Though, at least at the time I did my rtw trip, change fees weren't that bad. All that said, don't be so strict with planning that you don't allow yourself time for unexpected surprises (good and bad).
3. If you could go back in time and do your trip over again, what's the one thing you would do differently?
If I could do one thing differently, it would be to not get punched in the eye by a guy from my Africa tour group. Ha! But I think you're looking for something more generally related to travel… I would have taken more videos of the friends I made along the way so that I could remember them with more than just a picture.
4. Will you ever go on another round the world trip? If yes, why and when? If no, why not?
I sure hope I'll go on another round the world trip! Mostly due to financial reasons it won't be very soon (mortgage doesn't leave much left over for savings). For now, I have to be content with little one or two week getaways. Eventually, I know I'll need more than that as the travel bug does have a hold on me (there are so many places still to see!!).
5. Share your favorite picture from your round the world trip.
I've been asked all the usual "what's your favorite" things about traveling, but never my one favorite picture. Hmmm, normally it would probably be a landscape or artisticy style shot, but I think for this it should have people and convey a sense of fun and adventure. I've attached one of me and a friend jumping off a junk boat in Halong Bay, Vietnam. That seems to include friends and adventure. Also attaching a pic after getting dropped off from hitchhiking in Bulgaria (see below).
Editor's note: The plan for these "interviews" was to only ask 5 questions, but Bob wanted to include more information about himself and his trip, so he included a few bonus questions and answers that he thought our readers might like – so enjoy!
Why do you like to travel?
Each day of travel holds so many more possibilities than a day at home. You wake up not knowing exactly where you'll end up at the end of the day, what you'll see, who you'll meet. I could pretty much describe a regular work day for me even before I live it (i.e., it's not very interesting or exciting). Plus I really enjoy seeing new places and experiencing other cultures (I currently have a strange yearning to go somewhere dirty and slightly dangerous).
Advice while traveling
Share a story from your travels.
At this time it was about 8am and they were drinking 1L beers. They offered us each one, but we said "no" and shook our heads – only in Bulgaria shaking your head actually means "yes," so we were handed beers (my friend also got a cigarette – she doesn't smoke). So here we were, about 8 in the morning, drinking beers with some Bulgarian guys in the back of a truck on our way to Rila Monastery. They got us another 10km before turning off the road, and we got out and joked about the experience, taking our pictures drinking beer early in the morning. No more cars wanted to pick us up so we eventually got a taxi that was driving by to take us the rest of the way to Rila Monastery. The moral to the story being your day may start off sucky but you never know what may come along to make it one of the most memorable of your travels.

Rift Valley Railways (RVR), the concessionaire for the Uganda-Kenya railway, hope to conclude rehabilitating the Tororo-Pakwach railway line by August next year. Fixing the 500km railway that has been out of operation for the last 18 years will cost $2m.
"The vandalised section of the line is about 10%. We should have the line operational by August 2013," said Celina Zalwango, the RVR marketing and communications manager. She said the complete overhaul of the Uganda-Kenya railway line is moving at the expected pace and the second tranche of funding is expected shortly.
"It is a phased approach. Building the wagons takes a much longer time. They are not off the shelf," said Zalwango.
She added that upon completion, a 10-wagon train shall operate the route, which should come as a big boost to farmers, whose produce is not selling cheap because of middlemen and poor transport.
Eastern to northern Uganda is a key agriculture corridor producing maize, rice, ground nuts and livestock. The areas are a major source of food for western Kenya and South Sudan. The northern line runs between Tororo, Mbale, Kumi, Soroti, Lira, Gulu and Pakwach.
Announcing the development, the RVR country general manager, Mark Rumanyika, said: "Landlocked South Sudan is commercially viable. Hydro carbons have been discovered in the Albertine Graben and peace has returned to the north, meaning the potential for business growth is unlimited."
Rumanyika said works on the line commenced in November.
The restoration will be done in three phases.
The first phase of the works involves clearing of bushes, weeding and removal of anthills, and is being done by a Ugandan engineering company, Kato Engineering.
The second phase will involve restoration of washed out areas due to flooding, especially in Soroti, and installation of new culverts where required.
The final phase will involve replacement of vandalised locations.
"Opening up the central economies to the rest of the world is one of the most important aspects of the East African integration project. We intend to play our part in accelerating this process," Rumanyika said.
Rehabilitation of the northern railway line is one of the major transformation projects aimed at improving the business RVR has undertaken in the last year.

A group of investors, led by entrepreneur Aaron Kushner, wants to buy the Boston Globe. The New York Times Co. says it's not for sale — but then that's what the Bancroft family said when Rupert Murdoch offered them $5 billion for The Wall Street Journal, and look how that turned out.
So let's play this game. How much would it cost to buy the Globe? And how much is it actually worth?
For some informed speculation, I turned to media appraiser Kevin Kamen, who correctly predicted Newsday's sale price of $650 million, give or take $25 million. Since the Times Co. doesn't break out figures for the Globe per se, only for the New England Media Group (which also includes the much smaller Worcester Telegram & Gazette), Kamen could only come up with a very rough estimate based on that group's 2009 revenues of $440.6 million; its reported 2009 loss of $85 million, since reined in by $10 million of union-approved cost cuts; and its circulation of 264,000 on weekdays, 419,100 on Sundays.
Crunch all those numbers, and what's the Globe worth? "I would say no more than $120 million," says Kamen. "And I'm being very generous. I would say it's worth, realistically, $75 million." The extra $45 million, he says, is based on the assumption that whoever buys it must have an notion of how to make money from it beyond "Let's buy this thing and see what happens." (It's worth pointing out that that's exactly the spirit in which Sidney Harman bought Newsweek — but he only paid $1 for it.)
"Whoever's buying this has got to have an ulterior motive," says Kamen. "There's got to be a bigger picture that's consequential to them."
Of course, even at $120 million, the Globe is still a relative bargain when you consider that the Times Co. paid $1.1 billion to acquire it in 1993, and that, as recently as 2006, Jack Welch was prepared to pay $550 million or more for it. Just imagine what it'll be worth in another four years if the Sulzberger family holds out.

The Arrow Nine
The Arrow Nine has a great combination of new design with some established holes; a highlight is the beautiful island-type, par three finishing hole (Arrow Ninth), so make sure you have plenty of balls available when you reach the tee.

Avoid that fairway bunker from the tee. Then the second is deceptive – believe those distances for it's further than it looks!

North Central Association to visit NAU this spring
The Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association has asked NAU to prepare an "Institutional Change Request" related to web-based degree and certificate programs. The Higher Learning Commission will send two reviewers to NAU for a site visit in late April or very early May.
The Higher Learning Commission is engaged in a systematic effort to ensure that all institutional statements of affiliation status are aligned with the development of electronically delivered programs across the country. "The focus visit is not precipitated by any concerns about NAU or its online programs," said Karen Pugliesi, vice provost of undergraduate studies.
The focus visit is separate from the comprehensive review for renewal of institutional accreditation that will occur in fall 2007. Preparation for the focus visit this spring will be much less comprehensive in scope and will be completed in very short period of time, Pugliesi said.
"The report that will be prepared for the Higher Learning Commission is not a comprehensive self-study. Instead, the report will be a relatively brief document that responds to a set of six broad questions pertaining to online academic programs and their administrative infrastructure."
Pugliesi and Fred Hurst, vice president for Extended Programs and dean of Distance Learning, will lead the preparations for the visit. Next week a broad-based group of leaders across the university will begin formulating the change request document. The group will work with others in their areas to compile information and documentation that required to prepare the report to the Higher Learning Commission. Many others across campus will be asked to participate as the effort progresses.
Pugliesi said there will be periodic reports about the progress of this effort in the coming weeks. Questions can be e-mailed to firstname.lastname@example.com.

'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' extended edition to feature 13 extra minutes
Fans of Peter Jackson's Middle-earth films should be pleased at what he is going to be including on the upcoming "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" extended edition set. The full details about the special edition have been revealed, and the set will be released on digital platforms on Oct. 22 and in stores on Nov. 5.
Just like the "Lord of the Rings" extended editions, "An Unexpected Journey" will feature additional footage to expand the theatrical version of the movie. In this case it's 13 extra minutes that "extends individual scenes," says a press release. That sounds like there aren't any new scenes per se, with the extra time coming from expanded theatrical scenes.
Even more exciting for J.R.R. Tolkien fans is the fact that the extended edition includes nearly nine hours of new special features. Among them are audio commentaries, a multi-part documentary called "The Appendices" and another featurette called "New Zealand: Home of Middle-earth."
"I'm thrilled that the Extended Edition will give fans the opportunity to experience certain key scenes in the film as they were originally shot, as well as an abundance of special features," Jackson says. "It's exciting to present this expanded and enriched version of 'An Unexpected Journey' to allow fans to fully immerse themselves in the movie, before seeing the second part of the trilogy."
"The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" will cost $54.98 for five-disc Blu-ray 3D set (it also includes regular Blu-ray), $35.99 for a three-disc Blu-ray set and $34.99 for a five-disc DVD set. "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug" is due in theaters on Dec. 13.

FB2K v1.1.15 Masstagger now writes POPM 'RATING WMP' insted of, Conversion to v1.1.15 changed Masstagger "RATING" write

Something in the FB2K conversion from v1.1.14a to v1.1.15 appears to have changed my Masstagger's v1.8.4 script for setting the "RATING" tag. I have this script:
Set "RATING" = "1"
Which before created a TXXX frame of "RATING" set to 1. But after the upgrade to FB2K v1.1.15, the same Masstagger script instead creates a "RATING WMP" type tag of a POPM frame of 1. You can't see the difference in FB2K's Properties, it either case it shows a "RATING" tag of 1, since it doesn't appear to differentiate between the two. But MP3tag and a hex dump of the file both show the POPM tag frame being created by Masstagger instead of the TXXX tag frame. I am writing ID3v2.4 tags to mp3, with no ID3v1, running Windows XP with all latest updates. I verified the behavior change on both a standard install of FB2K and a portable install in another drive. In both cases the tags were written correctly under v1.1.14a, and problem introduced after upgrading to v1.1.15, and problem went away when reverting back to v1.1.14a.

Ah yes kode54 you are right, I stand corrected. On a fresh install there is only RATING, and under v1.1.14a if I try to add a "RATING WMP" entry, it creates a TXXX frame of "RATING WMP" - not very useful. And according to MP3Tag's tag mapping page, RATING MM for Media Monkey also uses POPM for its file Rating tag. So before v1.1.15 there was NO way to create a POPM Rating in FB2K?
A config option to toggle mapping to TXXX or POPM would be ideal for folks like me who prefer a user tag that won't get overlaid by over zealous software copying its database rating to POPM.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (246 votes).
In short: Expensive to sign up for. Run on the cheap and for profit.In full: Baggage area great. Toilets poor. The start area is chaotic, and lack of pace group area's add's to this. First 16 miles are pretty straight forward, and not to difficult to avoid getting caught up in the crowd. Plenty of shade if needed to avoid the hot sun. MK residents cheered all the way. The course would benefit from using the first 13 miles as a 2 lap course instead. The redways are hideous, relentless steep climbs that you'd only expect on a hilly trail run. You turn a corner and then theres another one and another and another. Marketed as a flat PB course with 300FT elevation, which is closer to 700FT. NEVER AGAINDate of review: May 6, 2014
In short: Tough course! Too many underpasses! In full: First off I have to say the organisation was superb and the support from the people of MK was brilliant. The course was very tough. My legs took a battering from the constant short sharp inclines for the (what felt like) hundreds of underpasses! The course was a little bit boring. The best part was going through a park at about mile 16 because of the amazing support from the crowd gathered. Date of review: May 6, 2014
In short: PB course?...you must be joking!In full: Having failed in Boston two weeks ago to run a London sub 3:40 GFA time, I chose to enter Milton Keynes because it is advertised as a PB course. This is very misleading and I have to totally agree with the other comments. I was on course until the last 5 miles when the constant undulations took their toll and I failed by 6 minutes. I cannot fault all the volunteers along the route the people of MK who came out to give much needed vocal support. Like previous comments the start was very chaotic with many slow runners (mainly charity runners), spread out at the front. It doesn't' work very well have a half marathon at the same time as a marathon where people have often trained for months beforehand. Two separate start times are required. Paying over £40, I would have expected to have a tee-shirt included as well as a medal. I have to admit that the isotonic drinks and gels were positive. In hindsight I wish I had chosen a different marathon to try for my specific time. I was also confused with the route...it was a case of deja vue for much of the race. I have tried to be constructive in my comments as I am aware of how much work goes into organising a large running event, but feel my comments are justified.Date of review: May 5, 2014
In short: Lots of ups and downs but overall worth a tryIn full: The MK marathon is billed as a flat course. Flat it isn't. What the profile doesn't show is the 20+ short sharp inclines and decents caused by going under all those famous roundabouts. They really break up your rhythm. However the course is more scenic than you would expect and there's a good level of crowd support. The stadium finish is a nice touch. One gripe. This year they added a half marathon and it was near gridlock getting to the stadium. More traffic management need next year. Also having paid for "VIP parking" was rather annoyed on finally getting there to be told it was full. After 15 minutes of stress we finally got a place but it's not the sort of stress you need just before a race. Date of review: May 5, 2014
In short: Well organised, great Marshall's but not flatIn full: Let's say the heat today did not lead to a PB for me. I had entered hoping as worst case scenario for 3.59 with a real hope of 3.45. The race started well with half runners and full runners starting together. This is not a problem other than many runners who could not do a great time starting at the front or near to and left a lot of dodging and weaving. The other thing is that the pace makers, great idea had blue balloons to say who they were but their pace was on their shirt so difficult to find the pace one wanted. The first 10 miles is very much on closed roads with brilliant and enthusiastic Marshall's. Then the two parts separate. I was pleased with my time up to 12 miles and ahead of the time I was hoping for. Unfortunate land not the fault of the organisers is that we had the hottest day of the year and the heat got to me. My time from 12 onwards went down hill. This is also an event advertised as flat - this was not flat with some very long hills. It is important here to use the downhills to your advantage. The finish is in Stadium MK, a great ending. Spectators were very supportive all the way round and the off road aspect is very scenic, though don't ask me where have been in Milton Keynes today!Overall well organised, great Marshall's, fantastic spectators and a scenic route. Too hot for me but a nice medal after running around Stadium MK.Date of review: May 5, 2014
In short: Tough course- more inclines than i care to remember- In full: i kept up with the 3hr 15 pacer for nearly 17 miles but then the inclines.... wow... soooo many.... one of my worse times in the end :( hard workDate of review: May 5, 2014
In short: Scenic route, great crowd support, undulatingIn full: Good organisation on the day. Negatives - No information on the website or race booklet on transport other than a car..whats that about? Was sold as a green marathon...well than includes encouraging people to use public transport. Lack of bands on the course was a bit of a let down. 26.2 miles is a long way in hot weather.Also we couldn't hear anything before the start. Definitely needs to be improved !!!Positives - Good organisation on the day. A marathon with no toilet cues is always a plus.Great to finish in the stadium with people cheering you on and shouting your name..that was price less especially when you've walked some of the last 2 miles.Good bag was okay. But the lack of any other size t-shirt apart from large was a let down. I'm an extra small and I now wear my t-shirt as a dress. lol. Nice colour.The guy with the horse along the course..God bless you, you are obviously a runner and understand how the temperature can affect you. Thank you.Considering whether you take part again next year. Date of review: May 27, 2013
In short: Great organisation! Great support from the good people of MK! Great weather! Loved it!In full: To my surprise, I really enjoyed this marathon. The good weather brought out lots of support though granted it was sparse in places particularly the last few miles. However, the course was interesting and varied, generally flat though there is a lot of rise and fall as underpasses were negotiated. This combined with a number of twists and turns doesn't make it a particularly fast course but fast times are possible. Water stations were frequent and they needed to be with the fine hot conditions and there were a couple of opportunities to guzzle blackcurrant Gatorade yum! yum! All in all a great race just a shame numbers were down on last year. Where were you - you missed out! Date of review: May 15, 2013
In short: Great day, super crowds, fantastic atmosphere.Date of review: May 14, 2013
In short: Well organised, great support, interesting courseIn full: I found this a great race. There are inclines and twists and turns but it did give variety to the course. Crowd support was great and the only fault I can think regarding the organisation was that I couldn't hear what was going on at the start. The stadium finish was icing on the cake. Not too crowded so didn't feel at any time that I was hemmed in. No queues for the loos at the start, now that doesn't happen very often! Plenty of water stations (bottles - yippee) and the people manning them were very efficient. A friendly race with a big marathon venue feel. I hope this marathon has many more successful years. This was meant to be my last marathon, but I managed to beat my Abingdon time and may be just maybe if the weather wasn't quite so hot I could just go a little bit quicker.... tee hee!Date of review: May 14, 2013

(Updates with comments from Santorum in 10th paragraph. For more campaign news, ELECT)
Feb. 12 (Bloomberg) -- Mitt Romney won a straw poll conducted as part of the Maine caucuses, rebounding from three losses earlier this week in the race for the Republican U.S. presidential nomination.
The former Massachusetts governor got 39 percent of the vote, according to the state party. U.S. Representative Ron Paul of Texas, the only other candidate whose campaign competed aggressively in Maine, took 36 percent. Former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania got 18 percent and former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich had 6 percent.
Romney yesterday also won a straw poll sponsored by the Conservative Political Action Conference and the Washington Times, receiving 38 percent of the vote. The survey polled 3,408 participants at the 39th annual CPAC gathering in Washington, which drew about 10,000 people.
While the Maine results don't immediately offer any convention delegates to Romney, they give him renewed momentum after losses to Santorum in a non-binding primary in Missouri and caucuses in Minnesota and Colorado on Feb. 7.
"The voters of Maine have sent a clear message that it is past time to send an outsider to the White House, a conservative with a lifetime of experience in the private sector, who can uproot Washington's culture of taxing and spending and borrowing and endless bureaucracy," Romney said in an e-mailed statement.
Maine Caucuses
The Maine results are based on votes cast at 84 percent of municipal caucuses that have been conducted to date; the rest will be held by March 20. The state's delegates to the August Republican convention in Tampa, Florida, will be allocated in May.
Romney victories in Florida's Jan. 31 primary and Nevada's Feb. 4 caucuses had made him the front-runner for the nomination. His losses earlier this week cast that in doubt and illustrated his failure to spark passion among the anti-abortion and anti-spending voters who are the Republican Party's core. He avoided a fourth straight loss by defeating Paul by fewer than 200 votes in Maine.
"It's almost like we could call it a tie," Paul told supporters. He renewed his call for a smaller federal government, saying, "the government should be out of the economy."
Santorum came in second in the CPAC poll with 31 percent, and Gingrich was third with 15 percent. Paul, who won the group's 2010 and 2011 straw polls, received 12 percent. Paul was the only one of the four remaining Republican presidential candidates to decline an invitation to speak at this year's conference.
'Two-Person Race'
Santorum said the victories last week gave his campaign a "shot in the arm," and that he's focused on beating Romney in contests such as the Arizona and Michigan primaries on Feb. 28.
"We can do reasonably well in Arizona and really make this a two-person race," Santorum said today on ABC's "This Week."
CPAC, hosted by the non-profit American Conservative Union Foundation, attracts Republicans motivated by cutting taxes and ending abortion rights, a voting bloc that has questioned Romney's commitment to their causes.
The CPAC poll, conducted by Fabrizio, McLaughlin and Associates, was taken between 9 a.m. Feb. 9 and 1 p.m. yesterday. Pollster Tony Fabrizio said 44 percent of those surveyed were students and 97 percent disapproved of President Barack Obama's performance.

Freshfully wins Occupy Avondale, plans a new market
Avondale is already buzzing, thanks to a recently-rehabbed Avondale Park and number of relatively new businesses, including Parkside Cafe, Avondale Brewing Co. and Saw's Soul Kitchen, which opened for business last week. But there's been even more buzz in past weeks thanks to the Occupy Avondale contest for six months of free rent for a qualifying business in a renovated space on 41st St. South.
Last night, Main Street Birmingham and Avondale Brewing Co. announced the winner of their contest: Freshfully!
Freshfully connects farmers with customers that want fresh local food. Customers order Freshfully's seasonal fruit and vegetable boxes or other farm and gulf-fresh products and pick them up at various locations around town or at the Pepper Place Farmer's Market. And that's it.
Until now. Mandy Shunnarah at Magic City Post reports that Freshfully will use its new space at 200 41st St. South to open a market to sell their goods.

what the church can learn from the retail sector
clergy washing lines � what you can discover from them
sharing the peace � a handy mathematical formula
a tried and tested reality TV method for appointing a new vicar
a guide to deciding whether to go to church or watch the football
what your pew says about you
when to stand up for a hymn
All this and other uneventful aspects of life in local churches, this book has a downbeat, understated comic style and would make an ideal gift.

Sam Bowne: Attacking Web users and servers with SSLstrip and Slowloris[1]
Please RSVP if you're planning to come (see further below).
For our 2010-05-18 BALUG meeting, we're excited to present:
Sam Bowne Instructor, City College San Francisco (CCSF)[2],
Computer Networking and Information Technology Department[3]
Many Websites mix secure and insecure content on the same page, like
Facebook[4]. This makes it possible to steal all the data entered on
such a page easily, using Moxie Marlinspike[5]'s SSLstrip tool.
Sam Bowne will explain and demonstrate this attack.
Slowloris is a very new layer 7[6] denial-of-service attack[7] created
by RSnake[8] that stops Apache web servers completely with very low
bandwidth--one packet every 2 seconds. The Apache developers were
notified of this vulnerability and decided it was unimportant and not
worth patching. Sam will explain and demonstrate this attack, and
discuss various ways to protect your Apache servers.
Sam will provide complete instructions so that anyone can easily set up
both these attacks on their own machines.
Sam Bowne has been teaching computer networking and security classes at
CCSF since 2000. He has given talks at DEFCON[9] and Toorcon[10] on
Ethical Hacking, and taught classes and seminars at many other schools
and teaching conferences.
He has a B.S. in Physics from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania[11]
and a Ph.D. in Physics from University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign[12].
His Industry Certifications are: Certified Ethical Hacker,

Hey everyone,
I've posted custom toy work in a contest at procustomizers.com:
There's actual prizes involved, which is rare for a custom toy contest online. I could win $100 in bbts.com store credit, which I'd be putting toward toy parts.
While you need to be signed up to their forum to vote, I'd appreciate it if you checked it out. If you have a min. this week, every vote helps! I can't say what's mine and what isn't - but I do have a particular style among all my work that I hope stands out. ^_^

Supersonic Molecular Beam Injection (SMBI) experiments were performed at GAMMA 10 device under the collaboration with HELIOTRON Group of Kyoto University. In order to survey the effects of SMBI on the plasma behavior, we measured the plasma radiation by using the ultraviolet and visible (UV/V) spectroscopic system and study behavior of the neutral hydrogen and impurity ions emissions with using the collisional-radiative model (CR-model).With SMBI, the neutral hydrogen density calculated by the CR-model was about 20 times larger than that without SMBI. Impurity densities of oxygen ions also increased with SMBI.

This was very simple to install, the hardest part was installing the software on my computer. I have noticed an increase of 1.5 mpg city and 2 mpg freeway. Its much more sensitave to fuel consumption then the factory set up. As for power increase, I cant really feel anything.
