J.H. asks from APO, AE on April 28, 2008
Info on Wiesbaden
My husband and I are thinking about a possible job with the Dept of the Army in Wiesbaden Germany. We have lived in Germany before but as contractors with no base privileges - so now I'm requesting some info as a DOA civilian and how life is there. Like the schools (in case I put my son in the DOD school), medical, shopping, churches, PWOC, homeschooling...bascially what life is like in Germany as a civilian with base privileges since our first experience was not too great. Any info would help me so we can make a better decision. Thanks.

I just moved to Wiesbaden in December and I am still getting to know the area, but I can try to help you out the best I can. I have to say I am absolutely loving Germany and Wiesbaden. My husband grew up in Germany from 71-92 and and is fluent in the language so that has helped a lot. I am not sure where you were the last time you were here but Wiesbaden is a great city. We live about a block from the train station and "downtown" is in walking distance. We love to walk the city and shop. However, the dollar to Euro makes it hard, but since you are living in England right now I am sure you are used to it. I know many wives here that homeschool their children and the bookstore on post sells homeschooling books. My daughter is only 3 so I dont know much about the schools. Please email me and we could chat. I would be glad to mail you out some info about Wiesbaden and post. Also you can check out wiesbaden.army.mil for the local news, events, and opportunities. Any questions I cant answer I would be glad to ask around about. ____@____.com Hope to hear from you soon.

Wiesbaden is a wonderful city, many things to do. We are military but live off post. We live 15min. away from the main base. Living off post has been wonderful, if you plan on looking for homes near the base it will be hard. A lot of the landlords want you to pay more than local nationals, because they think they can get "over" on you. My advise will be to go to the housing office on the Airfield and view the listings they have. Wiesbaden is an expensive city because it is the capital of Hessen. Mainz area is VERY busy with traffic, especially in the mornings and they are always fixing the roads.
DOD schools here are not bad, it might be an easier transition for your song into an english speaking school. There are many kids who are homeschooled here. The two elementary schools are Hainerberg the largest of the elementary school (on the same base as the PX,Commissary,Pizza Hut, ACS, Middle/High school, etc.)Then there is Aukamn (on Aukamn housing area, just 3-5min drive down the street from Hainerberg). With the Euro rate beating the dollar, we mainly shop at the PX or online. But downtown there are many stores such as Real (walmart) C&A and H&M.

I am currently a DoD civilian living here in Germany and have been seeking employment in the Wiesbaden area since Darmstadt will be closing soon. My experience has been that they are a very closed community. I recently went to the job fair there and no one even wanted to talk to me because I was not a military spouse. I have all of the certification required to work for ACS / MWR / and CYS...and am even over qualified for most of the jobs they have available. All I can say is, good luck in that area....other than that, life in Germany is great.
N.D. answers from Stationed Overseas on April 29, 2008
Hello J., I & my family live in Mannhiem Germany as my husband is in the Army. We have 2 children whome I homeschool. We choose to Homeschool for several reasons. I think the main one is because it's what WE all want. We made this choice as a family.
As far as Germany goes, well we love it here. It's not only beautiful to look at, it has so much to offer a homeschool parent in so many ways.
Shopping here is really good. I love it. Plus if you can't find what you want on base, then you go outside the base. Then if you can't find it outside the base, do what I do lol, go online. Your sure to find it there. Have it delivered.
Medical on the bases here in Germany, is what you make of it. I do know that DoD's are treated very well. Depending on what religion you are there are an abundance of churches to choose from on the bases, all you have to do is choose one.
I'm sorry your last experience wasn't that great here. I do hope that your next one is better.
I hope this information has helped you, Good Luck in your travels, & welcome to Mamasource!

Twin brothers represent UTSA at Clinton Global Initiative University in Washington
(April 20, 2012) -- UTSA juniors and twin brothers Travis Merriweather and Rustein Merriweather were selected to attend this year's Clinton Global Initiative in Washington, D.C. Their proposal submitted for the conference focused on creating sustainable initiatives at The University of Texas at San Antonio.
This included establishing a farmers market to help reduce the miles food travels and encourage increased eating of organic foods. Another proposed initiative was a green design expo where campus engineers, architects and student teams would present their ecological inventions and designs to be used on campus.
In 2007, President Bill Clinton launched the Clinton Global Initiative University, a program that brings college students together to discuss social issues that have an impact on the world. Each year, CGI U hosts a meeting where students, national youth organizations, topic experts and celebrities discuss solutions to pressing global issues.
CGI U 2012 was March 30-April 1 at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. At the meeting, nearly 1,200 students assembled to make a difference in CGI U's five focus areas: education, environment and climate change, peace and human rights, poverty alleviation, and public health.
The Merriweather brothers applied to CGI to gain a better understanding of major issues impacting the world and to network with students from around the world who also wanted to create positive change within their communities.
"As the first UTSA participants in CGI, we were humbled by the opportunity to attend, not only for myself and my brother, but to be representing UTSA as well," said Rustein. "Our acceptance to the conference will give hope to other UTSA students to apply in the future."
"[The initiative] gave us ideas, tools and contacts to bring back to UTSA that will further assist us in creating a more sustainable campus, as well as learning from other peers on issues affecting their communities," added Travis.
Both brothers aspire to careers in music, and want to continue exploring new avenues of involvement within the community.
A generous gift from the Valero Energy Foundation to the UTSA Student Leadership Center made it possible for the Merriweather brothers to attend the Clinton Global Initiative this year.

President Yoweri Museveni has praised Deputy Speaker Jacob Oulanyah as a good lawyer and nationalist who has been instrumental in crafting good policies for the government.
Speaking at Oulanyah's wedding at Speke Resort Munyonyo on Saturday, the President who was accompanied by his wife, Ruhaama MP Janet Museveni congratulated Oulanyah upon finding a companion after losing his first wife.
He described him as "an accomplished lawyer and leader whose role in helping the NRM government 'wrestle' the Acholi sub-region from "a sectarian political class".
Interspersing his speech with Luo words, Museveni described Acholis as "good people" who have been "unfortunate to have bad leaders."
"Initially, we had a problem with a reactionary and sectarian political class in Acholi. But with the help of people like Betty Bigombe, Oulanyah and Okello Oryem, things have changed," a jovial Museveni said, referring to the 2011 general polls where NRM, for the first time, overwhelmingly won in the region that had been hostile to it.
The president lauded Oulanyah for his fortitude that has seen him raise his four children following the demise of first wife, urging the bride, Winnie Amoo Okot, to "treat these kids just like her children."
The wedding was graced by a host of big shots in government, including Vice president, Kiwanuka Ssekandi, Prime Minister Amama Mbabazi, Chief Justice Benjamin Odok, Central Bank governor Tumusiime Mutebile, former prime minister Apollo Nsibambi, First lady Janet Museveni, a number of minister and MPs.
Guests were kept waiting for an hour before both the groom and bride arrived at different times.
The first to arrive at 2.29pm was the groom, attired in a cream jacket, white shirt, black trouser, beige sash, gleaming black shoes and his signature white bowtie, to choruses of John Newton's "amazing grace" by All Saints Cathedral's Well Spring Band.
And 24 minutes later the bride, adorned in a flowing cream gown, arrived to much ululation.
The newly installed Archbishop of the Province of the Church of Uganda, the Most Rev. Stanley Ntagali who wedded the couple strongly condemned same-sex marriages, urging all Ugandans to say no to such so-called marriages.
"No one has the right and the authority to change the original format of marriage and those playing on our psychology are wrong because they are violating our human rights", he said.
Archbishop Ntagali said that marriage was instituted by God Himself in the Garden of Eden.
He, therefore, asked the new couple to always cherish sincere love, patience and always be forgiving towards each other in order to enjoy a peaceful and lasting marriage, inevitable earthly challenges notwithstanding.
"Marriage is a hallowed institution and it should not be undertaken carelessly, lightly, or selfishly, but reverently and after serious thought," Ntagali said, before advising those searching for spouses to "pray about it instead of turning to the internet."
"You cannot get a good spouse on the internet," Ntagali said, sending guests into a bout of laughter. The bride is daughter of Santa Okot who was in the seventh parliament.
The President donated to the couple some cows as a symbol of wishing them good luck.

Cathay Pacific's New Business Classby: Josh Spear
On my flight out to Hong Kong from New York earlier this week, I had the pleasure of trying out Cathay Pacific's new business class seat for the first time (at my own expense). Spending 16 hours on a plane is never fun, but I have to say, it went by in an absolute flash this trip and it was all because of the seat.
I've written about all kinds of aircrafts, seats, classes and long-haul international flying options and I've got to say these new fully-flat seats on the 777-300ER Cathay planes are some of the best I've ever experienced.
As background, it's important to know the difference between "fully-flat" and "lie-flat" seats. There are plenty of airlines that will give you a lie-flat seat, but they angle it at the ground to fit more in the cabin. These slanted seats constantly feel like you're sliding down them and you're always thinking you're going to fall right off. Fully-flat seats are, well, completely flat. Horizontal to the ground and most like your bed at home (or, they certainly try to be).
Layout wise, the business class on Cathay Pacific is most like Virgin Atlantic's Upper Class. The herringbone style lineup gives extra privacy when you recline it into a flat bed and although it feels a little sardine-like at times, it feels good to have walls up on both sides of you while you sleep. Design wise, there's not much to say. It isn't much to look at (that's not the point), but it's soft and comfortable in all the right places and allowed more than enough room for me to stretch out fully with room to spare.
The entertainment system is also worth mentioning as I think it's the first setup I've ever seen which easily rivals (if not beats) Virgin America's highly technical and impressive system in the USA. Entertainment was shown on a massive moveable HD wide screen. One gripe of most planes is immovable screens but not here. A complimentary noise canceling headsets was also included. I was able to watch Star Trek in all it's glory, create a good playlist for the trip, and choose from what seemed to be easily more than 100 on-demand movies and TV shows to make my selection.
For me, the true test of any airplane seat like this is simple. Did I sleep? Like a baby. 11 hours worth (with no pharmaceuticals). A highly recommended seat, and amazing treat!
Lung King Heen: Hong Kongby: Lungta
Asking a seasoned traveler for the name of a good Chinese restaurant is like searching online for a custom made shirt. With no chance to feel the hand of the fabric or compare that particular shade of blue you like with your skin tone, the search for right tastes and a healthy blend of ingredients is elusive at best and can often lead to a major disappointment if not a sour stomach. So, it was a rare and welcome discovery to sit down to the five-course near perfection offered up by Chef Chan Yan Tak at Lung King Heen in Hong Kong. Situated in the spectacular Four Seasons Hotel (the largest Four on the planet), this three star Michelin master holds court daily for diners whose adoration for dim sum bring them to the ongoing power lunch scene around the peaceful, spacious and beautifully arranged tables of this stellar restaurant. We passed up the initial invite for lunch so as to be able instead to savor a delicious dinner we will lovingly remember.
Well prepared to feast on a variety of Chef Chan's Cantonese signature dishes, we passed over the objectionable but requisite opening page of twelve shark's fin this and that to make our selection from the not-so-obvious fish and seafood, tofu, vegetable, rice and noodle offerings many diners consider side dishes. Carnivorous reviewers of Lung King Heen have already waxed eloquent about the numerous beef and pork entrees which are a standard in Hong Kong; however, our intention was to ascertain whether or not a globe-trotting vegetarian, vegan or macrobiotic diner could leave feeling healthy and sated without exceeding the credit card limit. Following the complimentary opener "" a nibble of bean curd floating atop three straight, bright string beans cleverly arranged to reflect the I Ching hexagram for Heaven, a platter of eight small servings of "Crispy Scallops with Fresh Pear" (pictured below) started the meal with sweet slices of fruit bonded to the tender seafood by a thin layer of rich shrimp pâté. Numbers play a big role in all of Hong Kong, the land of feng shui and good fortune, where three and eight carry promising significance. The scallop-pair combination was like a fine French pastry and made us giddy with anticipation.
"Fried Rice with Lobster and Seafood" was equally divine; the rich taste of the rice combined well with sweet peas, tiny slivers of carrot delicately mixed with small bites of succulent lobster, prawn and crab. The result was tasty without being too filling, as much a light vegetable dish as one with seafood. From the page entitled "Organic, Vegetarian" we selected the "Five Grain Noodles and Assorted Vegetables", abandoning our gluten-free preference for this special occasion. Both full of flavor and rich, this was as fine a noodle dish as any we'd ever had, the accent on the organic solidly noticeable with each bite. Since most noodle dishes in lesser establishments are often buoyed by water chestnuts, bamboo shoots and Chinese cabbage, the absence of these staple fillers has to be acknowledged.
More familiar with tofu than most other patrons (my family has made our own for four decades), we were eager to try the "Crispy Tofu Sheet Rolls with Vegetables." We'd happily devour this dish, with a bowl of brown rice (not served here) and steamed greens, on a daily basis "" that is if we could prepare it as well as Chef Chan did. It was exceptionally appetizing and totally enjoyable.
Despite our sense that we'd ordered the right amount to share, we soon realized our dinner would pack well for a four-hour plane ride the next day. Our wish would be graciously granted as the remaining food was taken to the kitchen and boxed for travel. This gave us a chance to sample one of the eight dessert bean or fruit puddings and one of the eight innovative pastries offered on the menu. Accompanied by Fuding Silver Needle Tea, a surprising twist awaited us as we sampled the "Chilled Coconut Pudding with Hasma and Longan." While the "Red Bean Cream with Lotus Seed" was pleasant enough, the Coconut Pudding was truly unusual. It was a wholly unrecognizable taste: a sweet, light custardy soufflé layered between cool agar, somewhere between sparkling aspic and Japanese kanten.
Vegans, vegetarians and macros take note: don't settle for ordinary rice and bean curd just to save money in the great city of Hong Kong. Assuming they sample the beef, pork and shark's fin items on the menu, most people pay $150 – $200 each at Lung King Heen. Calculating that our meal served three people generously, the tab was $50 US per person, and we dined at the only three star Michelin Chinese restaurant in Asia. If that's not great value for money, then my tai chi is full of hungry ghosts.
The surprise ending? Hasma, known for its health-giving properties, are moist, chewy morsels with almost no taste. Hasma is said to be very good for the kidneys, lungs and women's skin as it contains many hormones and has a high lipid content. This is because it is a combination of fat and part of the reproductive area of a white-bellied frog from the north of China. Thus, as the meal ended, we conceded that when searching for healthy food, it just might not be essential to avoid all four-legged creatures that evolution moved out of the water. Astonished that we'd ingested our first amphibious body part, we both left of the same mind, feeling blessed that dinner at Lung King Heen was the best Chinese meal we'd ever had.

what i'm worried about here is it seems they don't know what direction to go on with the series. The fact that they're lumping all the mechanics and characters of past games into one (under the excuse of "portal" or whatever) seems like they're trying to make quick cash. Add in casual mode for more influx of new gamers. It's working for now (good for them), but what are they going to do in the next game? It's like when a musical artist releases a "best hits" album, some of them are doing it because their popularity is going down and it's their last attempt to gain some sales and attention again. The next FE better be good enough to sustain all the attention FE:A is getting.

You are entitled to your opinions, but I think a lot of you are missing some things about casual mode.
I LOVE Fire Emblem. When I was younger and had all the time in the world, there were maps that I would use the temp save option with a coliseum and grind for hours. Then that one time the enemy gets that 1% chance critical hit and my character died. So I would quit and restart something I had put hours into. I felt the impact and I was frustrated and I would choose to not level that character or deny certain types of match ups the next time. Take less risks.
Well now that I have a full time job and other priorities, I don't have that kind of time. I went from being the type that would restart an entire game because I found out when I was almost done, that I missed some secret pretty early on, to the type that is just happy I can finally beat that game because I found the time.
I didn't even really know about casual mode until today, and I had preordered this game awhile ago. But when I read what it was, I thought cool. Now I can play for 10 minutes and save in the middle of battle. Now when I have spent hours on a battle that I have carefully played through just like I did in every fire emblem before, I dont have to restart if I slip up and someone dies or more likely, that lovely RNG decides to have fun and make my 90% hit rate miss and the enemies 2% crit hit. I don't have time to restart. If I am restarting too many times I'm likely to never bother to finish the game. This means I can play on the harder difficulty, still play cautious, most likely still restart if early in the mission, but not after putting an hour into it. It will not change how I strategize in any way. It just lets me be, I guess more casual, because I don't have the time to be hardcore anymore.

My god.... you took the words right out of my mouth! This is EXACTLY why I welcomed the Casual Mode. I remember the exact thing happening when I played through FE7, grinding the hell out of the coliseum and end up getting extremely unlucky with a character and have them die. It was extremely frustrating, but fun at the same time as I had the time to go back and play the chapter again. Life dictates that I do not have that kind of spare time anymore. Although admittedly, I wish they had just allowed you to save mid battle period, and just taken out the Casual mode. It is a better game with the threat of a character dying permanently, but is easy enough to remedy with regular saving throughout a battle.

I like how some hypocrites here will argue that Casual impacts the game in a negative way, yet whenever someone mentions the broken DLC/spotpass/nosferatu tomes, they'll start crying "just don't use it!".
This would be hypocritical for obvious reasons, but I'm not one of those people. Nosferatu imbalance is a clear flaw.

I don't know why you would expect someone to read eighteen pages of people talking in circles. It would change his opinion on the matter as much as it changed the rest of ours. Not at all.

I just wanted to comment that I know a great way of getting the cayenne down; pour it on cottage cheese. It goes down very easily with very little burn at all! I also add chopped eggs to it sometimes just to oomph it up a bit. I guess you could also chase it with water since this seems to be the rule here.

07/07/2011To cayenne users. Lets just use the recommended dosage of using or taking it, by the expert. 1tsp for 8ounces of warm or hot destilled water, to be taken every after meal. So be it, to avoid over or under dosage, ok?Replied by Kenny

01/04/2012I agree with the one comment just take it like you're supposed to. I take a teaspoon 90.000 units with water or v8... Hot sauce in a bottle has sodium. (as does v8) anyway as the saying goes, don't be sissy, take it like a man.Posted by Samantha (Portland, Oregon) on 10/17/2007
I found cayenne a great cure for pretty much everything some time ago. It wasnt long ago that I came down with a bad sinus infection, cough, and fatigue. I decided to boil water on the stove, and add cayenne(open 3 capsules and pour them in), crushed garlic(4 cloves), half an onion, and grated ginger. THIS COMBINATION IS AMAZING. It is SO powerful. The most vital ingredients are the cayenne and garlic, but the onion and ginger are also very helpful. Make sure and boil everything until the onion is mushy, and the garlic is too. Keep a lid on, but every so often inhale the steam from the boiling remedy.. very soothing! Pour it into a glass and drink the whole thing. It is very potent, so what I do is add honey to it and it really tastes like liquid food- like a soup base or something.
Another remedy that I use is cayenne tea- just put a tea bag of your favorite tea in boiling water, and add a capsule of cayenne & some honey. Since I have been using cayenne in tea, and orally, and drinking the onion ginger garlic tincture, I rarely get sick.. and when I do, I can kick it within 3 days maximum. Cayenne is also extremely helpful for menstrual cramps.Replied by Dustin

06/17/2011I have figured out a VERY POWERFUL anti-inflammatory that works almost instantly. I take 1/2 teaspoon of Cayenne pepper in the mouth. Wait until the sensations start then swallow. Then I wait 2-5 minutes until I feel the burning all over my mouth and know that it is working. Then I take the following:
- Fresh Garlic
- Fresh Ginger
- 1-2 Ginger Capsules
- 1-2 Turmeric Capsules (high quality brand)
- Fresh Rosemary
- EVOO 1/2 ounce
I swallow this all at once and literally within 1-5 minutes the inflammation goes down. I can feel the muscle inflammation getting the effects of this combo. I heard that Cayenne is amazing for distributing herbal potency to where it needs to go. It quickly circulates the blood and I believe the "powers" of the turmeric, garlic, and rosemary all get going.
It has really helped me out with IMMEDIATE relief of serious inflammation more than any one by themselves or prescription drugs or NSAIDs or anything. If you want added benefit take a hot/warm water moist towel and put it on the area that needs inflammation reduction.

Hi Ted and all! I usually have low BP, but after I take a quarter of powdered cayenne papper diluted in warm water my BP goes up and my heart rate becomes stronger and faster than usual. I also noticed that if I take it in the evening I dream very scary dreams and wake up in the middle of the night with high BP and fast heart rate.

I do have high bp and I tried cayenne pepper and it did also raise my bp..With the things I read though it said it lowers bp ...
I am not sure why it raises bp but I guess that is because it opens up the blood vessels wider .. well hopefully an expert here will weigh in. Now I just sprinkle a few drops on food but am careful not to use it too much.....Replied by Caitlin

[SIDE EFFECTS] I have been taking one cayenne pepper pill a day with warm lemonade in the mornings for the last 2 weeks or so. I experience slight heartburn like feeling but it was not a big problem. Two days ago, I took two pills instead of one, and it was no more than 3 minutes after I swallowed the pills, I had the extreme cramping in my stomach, became very dizzy, my left arm was hurting and I felt tingling on my fingers and legs... Not only the pain was extremely bad, my head was spinning, I was having hard time walking in my kitchen. I was hot, I just wanted to stop the cramping and managed to throw up. Took two Tums... With the hyper ventilation and dizziness, I laid in the bath tub and turned the cold water on, (I was so out of it and unable to control my reflexes, I couldn't even take my clothes off) it took about another 10-15 minutes before the pain went away, and I actually managed to get up and walk around... I called my doctor friend and she asked me if I experienced chest pain, I said no. Other than that I had all the symptoms of a heart attack. Went to see a doctor, and after the EKG, I was told that I had a bad reaction to cayenne pepper. It was not a joking matter for me, as I was home alone with my 3 year old sleeping in her bed, I had to have a reality check. How healthy is it to be trying to be healthy???Replied by Curt

11/11/2010[SIDE EFFECTS] The other night almost the same thing happen to me. I ate my dinner and then took my cayenne pills (2 of them). Minutes later I started to feel this pain in my stomach. It got worse and worse.... I thought maybe I had to throw up but I really don't like to so I tried not to. I walked into the living room and almost passed out. I laid down on the couch and went into a heavy sweat. Slowly the pain went away and I came back to reality.
Since then I have taken my cayenne pills before I eat. This has not happen again BUT... I can't help but want it to happen again. Even though the pain was really bad at first..... I felt great after the episode was over.Replied by Francisca

11/12/2010I red the terrifying experiences people have had with cayenne pepper pills. What I do is add cayenne pepper to my food or else to my molasses, ACV drink. I can only imagine that this happened because of the impact of quite a big quantity of pepper in your stomach because when you take it you don't manage to take too much as it just burns your mouth. But it is true... Trying to be healthy is quite a tricky thing mainly because you mostly have to do it on your own. I often wonder whether what I am doing is making me better or worse...Replied by Lisa

11/12/2010Hi Francisca, I know the whole health thing can be a tricky thing! And sometimes you can't be sure if it's hype or someone trying to sell something about benefits, etc. I don't know if you've ever heard of Kevin and Annemarie Gianni but they have an internet show that is daily and is only 10 minutes long. They are like sleuths in the health world and work to discern fact, fiction, myth, etc. Their show is called http://renegadehealth.com and they do lots of interviews w/ very interesting people from all over the world and especially w/ those at the forefront of the alternative health world. Knowing your interests from all your posts, I am certain you will love it and find a lot of useful information on it.
Anyway, check it out and let me know what you think! I know I've learned a lot from all the various people that they've interviewed and whether certain foods, products, etc. really are healthy or not. You can also send in your own questions and they investigate and answer them as well. Best to you, LisaReplied by Francisca

11/13/2010The reason you had this over reaction to the cayenne pepper pills is because you should never take anything that tastes hot in a pill form. The body needs to sense that some thing as hot as cayenne pepper is on its way down to the stomache and the stomache is then prepared with the appropriate digestive acids to accept the cayenne pepper to handle it and digest it without any reaction. You may have been told by the people who sold you the pills that it's okay to take cayenne pepper in this form, but I will assure you it is not. Please listen to my advice or better yet do your own research on this and you will see I am telling you the truth. Good luck,
P. S. It is very easy to get cayenne into your diet and it is so cheap too. I put my cayenne in a glass of lemon juice which was freshly squeezed (and it needs to be an actual lemon, the fake plastic lemon juice dose nothing to help your health) and put a little cayenne pepper in and sweeten it with liquid stevia. It tastes refreshing and it is health promoting.Replied by John

This thread is to warn that ill effects from "Cayenne" would more than likely be caused by the gangster community packaging a chemical substitute known as "Sudam" or similar term.

01/09/2011John, Thanks for the alert I had not heard of this contamination so did some googling and now there are two chemical poisons - the Sudan Red you mentioned and also Para Red. They are illegal dyes that should not be in food. The list of food and spices that are contaminated is still growing and they are sill looking for more. To think I recently looked at some paprika that was very pale and decided not to buy it.

I found that drinking cayenne pepper using a straw makes it go down faster with less burn and it keeps the lips from burning afterwards. I also bite down on a lemon wedge right after. I suck the juices and eat the pulp of the lemon. This helps a ton if you have heat issues.Posted by Dr. I'mnot ? (Beaumont, Tx) on 05/22/2011
I have been taking cayenne for 15 years and recommend it for anyone wanting: to lose weight, help with blood pressure issues, circulatory benefits, to lower cholesterol and even help with some headaches, help with stomach problems [(not for stomach ulcers) aloevera juice for stomach ulcers]. If you consume alcohol in excess your intestinal tract will lose some of its protection and will be easily upset by cayenne.
Cayenne can be absorbed into the system with warm or cool water, I would not recommend mixing with orange or lemon juice at first, reason being an incresae in acid can cause an upset stomach which would be blamed on the cayenne. If you use warm water with cayenne it can produce an uncomfortable burning upon exiting the body, with cool water it will be almost unnoticeable. I will take one tbsp (one tsp for beginners ) of cayenne pepper powder (bought at the store) mix with half a cup of water drink that and then drink a glass of water to wash it down. I can take it on an empty stomach with small side effects, but I don't recommend this for the beginner Good luck and to good health, Have a Great DayReplied by Gary

08/24/2014My experience with cayenne in my twenties at 6 capsules per day was that my veins started protruding out of my arms it looked as if I was a body builder even though I had no excercise regimen.

I have had much success with taking two teaspoons of cayenne pepper in a small cup of juice or beer (beer works really well--just about 3 ounces of it! ) but I have had unbearably bad side effects with cayenne *capsules*. About 15-20 minutes after taking the capsules I get terrible, sharp stomach pains, cramps, and gas that last for a good 30 minutes and have me doubled over in pain. It feels like I swallowed a bomb! I have read that cayenne should always be taken straight because digestion begins in the mouth, and the sharp spicy taste prepares the stomach to receive the pepper. For those fearful of the spicy taste, I vouch that I have a low "spicy-tolerance" and that when shooting the cayenne in a couple of ounces of liquid, the spiciness only lasts for 20-30 seconds and disappears completely. Not at all that lingering, intolerable burning we all know from eating Mexican food! Plus, drinking it straight gives you a pleasant head-rush and wave of energy. Cheers!Replied by Kim

I came on here looking for answers and it makes sense that digestion begins in the mouth and our stomachs need a warning signal for spicy substances. No more hiding the cayenne in capsules, I shall open them up and dissolve in water. This makes much more sense, and seems to be the solution, thanks a bunch.Replied by Deshawn

09/22/2014[YEA] When my doctor first told me I had high blood pressure and then he had prescribed me bp pills my first thought was I will fill the prescription as a back up but I refused to take them without first RESEARCHING natural alternatives. I chose powdered cayenne pepper and in the beginning it did raise my bp but then after 2 days it normalized. I love the results of cayenne pepper 1/2 tsp in a small amount of warm faucet water is what did it for me and continues to do it for me. ( cheap and highly effective but don't do it on an empty stomach, I did and it wasn't a good feeling. I felt like I wanted to vomit, my mouth kept watering and my stomach felt weird but only for about 5 minutes, afterwards I felt great) it helped me out again in a major surgery I had back in march, my healing was rapid and amazing. You do not need organic or any special type of water a small amount of warm faucet water and the regular grocery store cayenne pepper works perfectly fine. I don't believe in hyping others up with you must take organic and the water must be either this type or that type but if taking organic makes you personally feel better than that's great. I only paid $1 at the grocery store for my powered cayenne pepper and the warm faucet water was free it just doesn't get any better than that and I had amazing results each time. And please before any gets offended I am not putting down organic anything nor am I against organic I just personally do not help spread the deception that it must be organic to be effective because my results have proved organic is not necessary to achieve great results like mine.Replied by Prioris

[YEA] Cayenne Pepper suggestion: I started using cayenne for weight loss but love the way I immediately feel energized when I take it. I like covering it with cottage cheese but have stumbled across another way to take them by making my own cayenne pills. I bought empty Gelatin Capsules at a health food store and filled them with cayenne. The easiest way I found was to line up capsules on painters tape then, put another piece of painters tape on top of the capsules. This will keep them straight but you can fold them. Hold them over a pyrex dish and pour the cayenne all over them. You can tap them down several times and pour more until they are full. It's pretty easy to get the tops of the capsules on and beats trying to fill one at a time. Watch out for breathing the dust. You might want to use gloves or just be careful to keep your hands washed between working with the capsules.Posted by Doug (New Castle, DE) on 06/08/2009

04/18/2010They usually take it with warm water because its easier to get accustomed with the heat that cayenne pepper produces if taken with warm water.

08/27/2010[YEA] Dr. Christopher says that you should use warm water because the warm water opens your system up and allows the cayenne to get into your system faster than using cold water. I took cayenne capsules several years ago and quit. Because of type 2 diabetes, my feet had become numb and I have pain and burning to the point that I had to stop my 30 minute daily walks. I started taking cayenne (1 teaspoon in 8oz warm water three times a day) about two weeks ago for my heart and high blood pressure. To my surpise after 3 days of the cayenne, I suddenly noticed that my feet didn't hurt like they had before. After almost two weeks, I am just about completely free of pain and numbness.

[YEA] In order to avoid severe coughing while gargling with cayenne pepper (red pepper) in tempered water you need to breath deeply, hold your breath, take a sip of cayenne pepper, gargle, spit the mix and breath normal.
Gargling this way you avoid breathing through your mouth when you are sipping the mix and the dry cayenne powder doesn't get into your through.
Also, when the throat and larynx are irritated it is better not to swallow a lot of the mix so just swallow what is left in your spit after spitting the mix. It has worked wonderfully for me!Posted by Muddythewater (Vancouver, Canada) on 04/01/2008
[YEA] I have been experimenting with the ingestion of cayenne pepper. So far I have found that the easiest way is to have a drink shaker and a to ounce shot glass.
Add 1 Tbl spoon of Cayenne (maybe slightly less if just starting)
Add 1 Tbl spoon Liquid honey
Lemon juice to taste
4 - 5 ounces water
Shake for at least a minute.
This makes 2, 2 ounce shots.
you can have a glass of water or juice for a kicker, but the honey and lemon really kill the initial taste and shaking it up turns it into'more of a juice floaty spice in water that looks strange. I havent been doing this for long but I feel that the supposed health benefits outweigh the flavor factor.
Good luck! Tips and feedback would be nice.Replied by Stormymarie

I've read about people having problems with Cayenne, Habanero or other "hot" chilies or sauces and as a Chef who specializes in Mexican fare, plus I now live in Mexico too, I can give you a very easy and efficient remedy to ease the burning from peppers. Also, it doesn't matter if the burning is in your mouth, lips, face (from touching it with your hands after handling peppers) or hands, it works:
Put a little salt on the palm of your left hand, wet the tip of your right index finger in your mouth slightly and dip it in the salt and place it UNDER your tongue (sublingual) in the tender area on your jaw and not ON the underside of the tongue. Relief is very quick, easy to do, you can do it anywhere (like a restaurant) and works for everyone plus you can find salt everywhere.Posted by REGINA (N. BRUNSWICK, NJ) on 03/07/2008

Release of Those Remanded in Custody on Charge of Involvement in Attempted Rebellion Demanded
| Pyongyang, August 18 (KCNA) -- The South Headquarters of the Pan-national Alliance for Korea's Reunification on Aug. 12 issued a statement demanding a verdict of not guilty for the Unified Progressive Party charged with the involvement in the attempted rebellion and the release of those remanded in custody on that charge.
The statement said:
The Seoul High Court acquitted them of the charge at the trial on Aug. 11.
This clearly proves that the charge was fabricated by the "government" to eliminate the party by setting the security institution in motion.
However, the court did not make a decision to set them free, claiming that although they are not charged with attempted rebellion but are guilty of agitating it.
The present regime is working hard to tide over its ruling crisis through coloring offensive and suppression under the pretext of security.
The statement demanded the regime halt such crackdown and release those detainees at once.

The Binding of Isaac
Review by OhNoPeppyHare
"Unfair, brutal, and worth every penny"
In 2010, Edmund Mcmillen released a nice little gem to the gaming world known as Super Meat Boy. It was the perfect balance of difficult and fun, and no one could deny that it wasn't worth the low price it was at the time. This year, he has done it again with the Binding of Isaac. While Super Meat Boy obviously drew its gameplay from the likes of Super Mario Brothers and Megaman, the Binding of Isaac is geared towards the fans of old school dungeon crawlers and the Legend of Zelda. The aim is simple; you trek through dungeons, battling monsters and collecting items. And if you're expecting something easier than Super Meat Boy, well, be prepared for something even more unfair. You're going to be frustrated, you're going to feel ripped off, and you're going to feel like every move you make may be your last.
And you're going to love it, provided you're the sadistic, yet determined type.
The Binding of Isaac is centered around little Isaac, a boy being pursued by his mother who was "sent" by God to kill him. He travels into the depths of a conveniently placed trapdoor in his house, and battles the horrors that are just as bloodthirsty as his mother. You're not entirely screwed though; you collect randomized powerups to affect your abilities and depending on what powerups you get, your style of play drastically differs. Isaac also has to collect coins, bombs, and keys, which serve obvious purposes. Coins allow you to buy powerups or gamble, bombs allow you to blast rocks that are in your way, and keys open up certain areas. The floors all contain a treasure room, which pretty much means a free powerup, a shop that sells items, a boss room that houses an incredibly powerful enemy, and a hidden room, which rewards you for finding. You'll also sometimes encounter Devil rooms, which offer you incredibly powerful upgrades at the cost of your max health, and arcades which allow you to gamble coins for keys, bombs, more coins, or health. With randomized floor layouts, randomized enemy and boss arrangements, and randomized powerups and item drop rates, you'll never get the same experience twice. Randomization works as a double edged sword in Isaac; a randomized floor layout may reward you with easy to access rewards, but you are just as likely to encounter rooms rich with rewards but render you unable to reach them since they're surrounded by pits. Couple that with the fact that the room is swarming with enemies and the pit limits your maneuverability by a lot. Or maybe you will be blessed with a boatload of bombs for you to pick up but have no keys to access a really important treasure chest. Randomization does keep the game remarkably fresh, as you can see. Every time you restart the game you need to treat each floor as a new challenge and use the powerups you get to work alongside you. There are also character "classes" that allow you to start the game with different stats, in case one method of play doesn't float your boat. More defensive players that need to keep health a priority may find favor with "Magdalene" while offensive players will find absolute wrecking power with "Judas." Enemies in this game range from annoying to traumatizing; you cannot afford to get hit in this game and part of the Binding of Isaac is to react according to an enemy pattern while in combat. There are enemies that jump over rocks, enemies that shoot in a plus formation, enemies that can only be hit from behind, and a lot more. Bosses are the same way; while incredibly powerful, you need to understand their movements to fight effectively. As you can see, the Binding of Isaac is all about determination.
I've probably scared most casual players about the intensity of such a simple, random, unforgiving game. But the magic with Super Meat Boy was despite all the odds being stacked against you, the game is BEATABLE. The Binding of Isaac is the exact same way. Sure, you can blame the game sometimes about putting you in a room with enemies you couldn't beat or you being forced to skip a treasure room since the floor had no keys to offer you, but the game is beatable. You will eventually read enemy patterns and scoff upon seeing them, you will eventually be able to understand the balance between coins, bombs, and keys and know when to pass up certain rewards, you will go through bosses without taking a single hit. The game can be beaten with relative ease with enough practice, dedication, and yes, even luck. Beating the game or certain parts of it unlocks more items, and believe me, using them in battle makes the game that much more fun. With the various incentives for winning, you can definitely not mind beating the game more than once.
I said earlier that the magic of Super Meat Boy was the challenge of the game. That's not all it was known for; that game and the Binding of Isaac possessed a charm that Edmund Mcmillen is probably now famous for. The game's story is overly simplistic, and relies more on presentation to hook a player. It definitely works, from the art style to the wonderful score composed by Danny Baranowsky, who also composed the music to Super Meat Boy. The demonic, religious imagery is conveyed as "cute" at times, and the humor is very low-brow, yet welcome. Isaac's memories, while depressing, are funny simply due to how they are conveyed. All of the powerups you get in the dungeon affect Isaac's appearance in usually morbid ways, yet are worth a chuckle. For those that want examples, a coat hanger powerup that upgrades Isaac's tears is shoved through his head and the Mom's Underwear powerup shows Isaac wearing panties as if it's nobody's business. Ed Mcmillen's other works are referenced quite a bit in this game as well, such as some characters from Time **** and definitely references to Super Meat Boy.
The game isn't without it's criticisms, though. It lacks an autosave feature, which means that players have to beat the game in one sitting or literally die trying. Also, the game is literally thrust into you. There is no tutorial, explanation of game mechanics, or even a detailed explanation of the powerups you obtain or the stats you can raise. While the understood intention is "experimentation," this can be incredibly frustrating to those that cannot fully grasp game mechanics as much as a player who has had experience with games like Zelda. For these reasons alone a casual player may be turned off incredibly by the Binding of Isaac, and I believe that these are legitimate concerns. But do not get me wrong, this game is amazing and truly worth the small price. Not to mention there are DLC plans which will definitely freshen up the game for even Isaac veterans.
In closing, the Binding of Isaac is a challenge to gamers that dares you to conquer it with open arms. The only question is, do you have the determination to trudge through? Believe me, it's a good feeling once you do.

Video:What are Football Defensive Positions?with Andy Miley
The defensive line is critical to a successful football team. Learn the specific roles for each football player on the defensive line to get a better understanding of the game.See Transcript
Transcript:What are Football Defensive Positions?Hi, I'm Andy Miley for About.com. If you watch sporting events you might notice that the crowd usually goes wild when a team scores. Everyone likes to watch the offense, however, defensive is equally important often without the same excitement. Each member of the defense has a role to fill, let's go over the roles of a football team in more detail.
A Football Team's Defensive Line is Assigned Specific RolesStarting with the defensive line you have three key positions. Defensive ends, defensive tackles, and the nose guards. The line men's basic role is to take up space in front of the offensive line blocking the chances of the ball carrier to move forward. By congesting up the line of scrimmage the line men enable the other members of their defensive team to tackle the ball carrier. Defensive ends are usually the quickest players on the defensive line while the defensive tackles and nose guard are big stout players who are hard to move.
Defensive Linemen Block the Rush and Stop the PassAll defensive linemen are working to stop the forward movement of the offense while trying to get to the QB before he passes the ball. If they tackle him before the QB releases of the ball, it is called a sack. The next line of defense are the linebackers. They are typically positioned 2 yards behind the line of scrimmage. A LBs job is to move to where the ball is going. Middle/inside linebackers spend the most of their time defending against the run. On occasion they are responsible for watching specific players that run passing routes. Outside linebackers also are used to stop the run but will cover often players running passing routes, but depending on the defense style, may also rush the QB like a DL. Strong linebackers usually make or break the defense.
Defensive Backs Block the ReceiversFinally, The defensive backs first job is to defend against anyone that is running a passing route. The DBs that lineup straight across from the WRs are called cornerbacks. These are usually the fastest players on the team. They typically have to run backwards for at least 10-20 yards. The other kind of defensive backs are called safeties (strong and free). Strong safeties usually help more in run support and free safeties stay in the middle of the field to defend against long passes and runs. All DBs are expected to help if a running play gets past the line of scrimmage.
Although each position has a specific role, a good defense will work collectively as a team limiting the forward movement of the offense. To learn more, check us out on the web at About.com

The HP All-In-One L7590 Printer
Company: HP
List: $299 Street: $199
I am a fan of the multi-function printing device. They take up less space than four machines combined (obviously) and I only need to buy supplies for one machine. Time was, however, when owning one meant compromise on all functions. However, about 8 years ago, the first of what I considered good devices in this class started showing up from companies like Cannon, Brother, and HP, and their abilities continue to grow.
I own an older HP G85xi All-In-One. This is a full color, full duplex (with adapter), 4-ink printer, copier (with sheet feeder), scanner, and fax machine all in one reasonably sized device. It was not cheap 8 years ago, at almost $700, and to use it on a network with both Macs and PCs, I had to add a $300 Jetdirect 300X network interface box, as that printer was USB and parallel only. So, for nearly $1000, I had one device of amazing quality that took up little space, and now, almost 8 years later, is still working fairly well. Except…

Pavilion Cinema
South Queen Street,
No one has favorited this theater yet
Located in Morley to the south of Leeds, Yorkshire. The New Pavilion Cinema opened in 1911. Seating was arranged in stalls and circle levels. A stage and 4 dressing rooms were included in the building and for many years its programme included films and variety shows.
By the early-1960's it had dropped the 'New' from its name and became the Pavilion Cinema. Closed around 1966, the building was converted into a bingo club. In more recent years it was converted into a nightclub known as Orbit which was Internationaly known as a venue for techno music. This closed in the late-1990's and most recently the building was in use as an Italian restaurant, known as Puccino's.
Recent comments (view all 3 comments)
The nightclub opened in 1989 as the 'After Dark' and closed in 2003 as the 'Orbit' . It has now been converted into an Italian restaurant.
The restaurant didn't last long, it closed in July 2005 and has been left as it was the day it shut.

THE bodies of three children have been retrieved from River Yala. The three are among four people who drowned when their canoe capsized on Tuesday.
North Yimbo chief Opil Rabut said the fourth body is stuck in the rocks. Richard Onango Obote 13, Walter Edwin Otieno 13, Pascal Omulo 13, and Dadi Ndege 7, drowned as they were going home after grazing their animals.
The children usually paddle to the other side while the animals swim across the river However, on this day, the river's intensity was high after a heavy downpour that evening sweeping the children away.
Nicholas Oduor who tried to rescue the children drowned and his body was found on Wednesday morning. Rabut said the animals safely swam to the river bank.
"We are still searching for the remaining body though the intensity of the river remains a stumbling block towards our search," he added. MP Oburu Oginga said his office will help with the burials.

Researchers will be favoured over teachers by the Universities Funding Council next year. The council announced this week that research funding would rise by 1 per cent to £672 million. Meanwhile, universities will receive 15 per cent less than last year for each undergraduate student.
Graeme Davies, chief executive of the UFC, said the rise was needed by universities strong in research, 'to continue to pursue high quality research without having to overexpand at the undergraduate level'.

When I lived in Germany, lane splitting didn't bother me at all (and yes i was driving a car then). I could care less if somebody on a motorcycle was to make his/her way to the front at a light. So what if they get through and I don't, that's the benefit of riding/driving a small vehicle; it opens up spaces other people can't use. Anyways, if your route or trip is timed so tight that missing a light or two will make or break whatever it is that you are trying to do, then maybe you didn't give yourself enough time in the first place. I am definitely for lane sharing/splitting. WIll I do it? Not unless it is made legal, and even then I probably still wouldn't do it very often. But it would be nice to have the choice.

"Creativity used to be the difficult concept to define - now it has probably been overtaken by the concept 'creative industries'. However, this text does a sterling job at identifying, outlining and defining the many elements that go to make up this booming sector of industry. What makes it particularly interesting is that it includes the view of the creative industries from the perspective of working in it, then the definitions of what products and producers are involved, and ends with the broader picture of the creative economy and predictions for future trends. Add to this that they include both theory and practice, and this really is an all-round guide to the vast domain that is loosely titled 'the creative industries'"
- Angela Birchall, School of Media, Music & Performance, Salford University
This is your complete guide to studying and succeeding in the creative industries. This book takes you through the history, trends, products and markets of the creative industries, showing how success depends on a mix of ideas, tactics and talent.
When understanding social networks and cultural economy is just as important as hands-on skills or an entrepreneurial spirit, Introducing the Creative Industries shows you how to use theories, concepts and practical skills to get ahead in their course and professional life.

Keyword substitution: kv
Default branch: MAIN
Add another ICH PCI ID. Submitted-by: "Vlad Galu" <firstname.lastname@example.com>
Add some more PCI IDs for the SATA300 controllers of newer Intel boards.
Do a major clean-up of the BUSDMA architecture. A large number of essentially machine-independant drivers use the structures and definitions in machine-dependant directories that are really machine-independant in nature. Split <machine/bus_dma.h> into machine-depdendant and machine-independant parts and make the primary access run through <sys/bus_dma.h>. Remove <machine/bus.h>, <machine/bus_memio.h> and <machine/bus_pio.h>. The optimizations related to bus_memio.h and bus_pio.h made a huge mess, introduced machine-specific knowledge into essentially machine-independant drivers, and required specific #include file orderings to do their job. They may be reintroduced in some other form later on. Move <machine/resource.h> to <sys/bus_resource.h>. The contents of the file is machine-independant or can be made a superset across many platforms. Make <sys/bus.h> include <sys/bus_dma.h> and <sys/bus_resource.h> and include <sys/bus.h> where necessary. Remove all #include's of <machine/resource.h> and <machine/bus.h>. That is, make the BUSDMA infrastructure integral to I/O-mapped and memory-mapped accesses to devices and remove a large chunk of machine-specific dependancies from drivers. bus_if.h and device_if.h are now required to be present when using <sys/bus.h>.
Add PCI IDs for Intel's ICH7 and ICH7M ATA/SATA hardware, used in Core Duo. The hardware is currently untested. Reported-by: Gabor MICSKO <firstname.lastname@example.com>
Remove DEC Alpha support.
Add cases for the nvidia nForce3 PRO and PRO S1. Who knows how well it actually works.
First stab at getting the Silicon Image (SiI) SATA controllers 3112 and 3124 working.
Add detection support for the Intel ICH6 chipset.
Hack in the code from FreeBSD-5 to set the timings for NVIDIA/AMD chipsets. This seems to greatly reduce READ_BIG: ILLEGAL REQUEST problems accessing a CD on my AMD64 box (NVidia3 chipset, secondary controller, master, PIO4). The problem occurs at a much lower frequency in overnight tests. Further testing is ongoing.
Do a partial synch from FreeBSD-5 of the NVIDIA and NFORCE ATA setup code. Our previous code was totally bogus.
Bring in a bunch of well tested MPIPE changes. Preallocate a minimum number of mpipe elements when it is initialized. Use an array to cache free MPIPE buffers nad remove the data structure overloading that was previously occuring on the buffer itself. Add a deconstructor. Separate the blocking and non-blocking allocation APIs into their own functions. The new code still needs Giant, but it's getting a lot closer to being lock free.
Remove a debug printf added with the last commit.
While converting ATA to use MPIPE allocations, ata_dmaalloc was changed to allocate the DMA buffer directly without checking if it already is. Since atapi_queue_cmd and ad_start doesn't check this and the DMA buffer is only freed from ad_free, ad_detach and atapi_detach, the MPIPE was exhausted very soon. The calls the ata_dmafree has been removed in revision 1.9. This adds an additional check wether a DMA buffer is already allocated and reuses that instead.
* Add in support for the Silicon Image SATA controller.
ATAng stage 6: Comment-only. Many thanks to David Rhodus for generating a base patch set from FreeBSD-4 for all the ATANG integration work.
Add experimental (as in hacked) support for the Silicon Image SATA controller 3512. run it like the SiI 0680 ATA133 controller for now. It works operating as a non-raid ata device on an FN85 Shuttle (AMD64) motherboard. The controller is theoretically a raid controller there is no current support for it.
ATAng stage 5: sync chipset changes and bug fixes. busdma is not synched yet.
ATAng stage 5: sync additional function API changes from FBsd-4. We now have everything except the dma chipset changes and the busdma changes. Note that we retain our MPIPE code as it is far superior to what is in 4.x and 5.x.
ATAng stage 4: sync additional atang from 4.x, all non-operational changes except for one offset calculation. pushdown API.
ATAng stage 3: sync additional atang from 4.x, mostly non-opertional changes, changes in procedure args, etc.
ATAng stage 2: sync part of the ata_dma*() API. No operational changes.
Add support for the AMD 8111 chipset
Add detection code for the SiS 746 ATA133 controller. This does not, for all I can quickly see, enable ATA133 on the controller.
Add recognition code for the SiS 645DX.
Patch to make the P4S8X run in ATA100 mode. This is a compromise, since both the mainboard and the hard drive support ATA133 mode, but there doesn't seem to be much difference between ATA100 and ATA133 even on FreeBSD-current. Submitted-by: YONETANI Tomokazu <email@example.com>
Add the MPIPE subsystem. This subsystem is used for 'pipelining' fixed-size allocations. Pipelining is used to avoid lack-of-resource deadlocks by still allowing resource allocations to 'block' by guarenteeing that an already in-progress operation will soon free memory that will be immediately used to satisfy the blocked resource. Adjust the ATAold code to use the new mechanism and remove the code that tried to back-off into PIO mode when resources were lacking.
Add support for the ICH 4 mobile chipset.
Allow NVIDIA's nForce 2 chipset to use proper ATA DMA modes. FreeBSD PR: kern/47311 Submitted by: Mike Hibler <email@example.com>
kernel tree reorganization stage 1: Major cvs repository work (not logged as commits) plus a major reworking of the #include's to accomodate the relocations. * CVS repository files manually moved. Old directories left intact and empty (temporary). * Reorganize all filesystems into vfs/, most devices into dev/, sub-divide devices by function. * Begin to move device-specific architecture files to the device subdirs rather then throwing them all into, e.g. i386/include * Reorganize files related to system busses, placing the related code in a new bus/ directory. Also move cam to bus/cam though this may not have been the best idea in retrospect. * Reorganize emulation code and place it in a new emulation/ directory. * Remove the -I- compiler option in order to allow #include file localization, rename all config generated X.h files to use_X.h to clean up the conflicts. * Remove /usr/src/include (or /usr/include) dependancies during the kernel build, beyond what is normally needed to compile helper programs. * Make config create 'machine' softlinks for architecture specific directories outside of the standard <arch>/include. * Bump the config rev. WARNING! after this commit /usr/include and /usr/src/sys/compile/* should be regenerated from scratch.
