This report contains stories reported to the Southern Poverty Law Center. They illustrate the devastating impact HB 56 has had on Alabama Latinos, regardless of their immigration status. The stories also illustrate that HB 56 has unleashed a kind of vigilantism, leading some Alabamians to believe they can cheat, harass and intimidate Latinos with impunity.
Alabama has made many important changes to the juvenile justice system. There is now an opportunity to create a statewide model for girls. Developing a statewide, locally run model system of care for girls will again demonstrate the state's commitment to move away from a typical correctional institutional approach to troubled youth. Report by Marty Beyer, Ph.D. and Paul DeMuro.
The American Family Association (AFA) is one of most powerful religious-right groups in the nation, with a $20 million budget, a network of 200 radio stations and two Internet television channels The AFA and its spokesman, Bryan Fischer, are famous for their anti-gay bigotry. What's less known is how 'mainstream' Idahoans jump-started Fischer's career
Together, the Family Research Council (FRC) and the American Family Association (AFA) may comprise the most important anti-gay lobby in this country.
The National Assessment of Educational Progress—commonly called "The Nation's Report Card"—tells a dismal story: Only 2% of high school seniors in 2010 could answer a simple question about the U.S. Supreme Court's landmark Brown v. Board of Education decision. And it's no surprise. Across the country, state educational standards virtually ignore our civil rights history.
This report on the history of the Ku Klux Klan, America's first terrorist organization, was prepared by the Klanwatch Project of the Southern Poverty Law Center. Klanwatch was formed in 1981 to help curb Klan and racist violence through litigation, education and monitoring.
New Orleans families remember the hope they felt after Hurricane Katrina when education stakeholders promised a "world-class" public school system, "in which every decision focuses on the best interests of the children." The pledge to rebuild New Orleans public schools hinged on a model in which quality schools would be accessible to all, while providing innovative education practices tailored to meet the long-neglected needs of students. Unfortunately, these promises remain empty for many New Orleans students.
This report is based on extensive interviews conducted with 150 immigrant women from Mexico, Guatemala and other Latin-American countries. They live and work in Florida, California, North Carolina, New York, Iowa, Arkansas and other states. All have worked in the fields or in the factories that produce our food. They are among the 4 million undocumented women living in the U.S.
This report seeks to answer the issues of efficacy and fairness in the use of out-of-school suspension, the usage of which has increased dramatically as a form of discipline. In part, the higher use of out-of-school suspension reflects the growth of policies such as "zero tolerance," an approach to school discipline that imposes removal from school for a broad array of school code violations - from violent behavior to truancy and dress code violations.

Dear Linux Fans!
I'm writing to you, bacause I need a help hand. I just bought SuSE 9.0 AMD64 Edition and I'm trying to set up my graphic card. Last time I did it, it was about year ago on RH8 System. Now I see, that Nvidia changed the way of installing the drivers and maybye beacause of that I have so many problems. From beginning. I have typically installed SuSE with kernel 2.4.21 on MSI K8T NEO with AMD64 3200+, 1GB DDR400 with PNY Quadro FX 500 card and IIyama Vision Master PRO 450 Display. When I'm running .run file eferything works fine, it creates custom kernel, and I see message like Everything went fine, run SaX2 to configure X. Ok, I did it, but I still have no OpenGL hardware Acceleration. The dummy driver is installed by default. What should I do to enable NVIDIA Driver ? I tried to change in XF86COnfig file "nv" to "nvidia" but then system hangs (with screen artifacts) when im going into graphical interface (after
(II) NVIDIA(0): AGP 8X successfully initialized
(II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "1600x1200" ).
Do you have any tips what I'm doing wrong ?
IF you want, I can attach my log and config files.
BIG Thx for help!

Fresh indications emerged at the weekend that the proposed legislation by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to discourage local transactions in dollars in Nigeria was informed by the need to ensure the sanctity of the cashless policy in the nation's financial system.
CBN sources told THISDAY at the weekend that in spite of the rising opposition to the proposed policy, the apex bank is resolved to push ahead in view of the challenges confronting the implementation of the cashless policy especially in Lagos.
According to the policy, which formed part of the discussions at the last Bankers' Committee meeting in Abuja, recipients of international money transfer schemes, such as Western Union, Travelex and Money Gram, will receive the naira equivalent of the currencies wired to them from abroad.
Money transfer providers assist in transferring small to medium size amounts because they have a larger network of receiving agents in Nigeria and transfers take less than 24 hours.
However, the proposed policy aimed at enforcing payment of such transactions in naira may also affect firms and hotels that sell their goods and services in dollars.
A source explained that by allowing beneficiaries of remittances from abroad to continue to collect the money in dollars, the peg on the amount of money which could be withdrawn by individuals and corporate organisations in the cashless policy regime will not be achievable.
N500, 000 and N3 million per day were the thresholds set for individuals and corporate organisations respectively under the cashless policy.
According to sources present at the bankers committee, which is made up of chief executives of banks and CBN officials, concerns were raised that by allowing beneficiaries of wired money to be paid in dollars, it will be difficult to restrict amount of cash in the system especially given the volatility in naira-dollar exchange rates at both the official and parallel markets.
Their worries were said to have been informed by the activities of politicians and some businessmen who rely on wired money for their operations.
Dollar is the world's widely accepted means of payment in the international market. Virtually, all countries including Nigeria have majority of their reserves in dollar.
The demand for dollars has continued to exert pressure on Nigeria's foreign reserves, which were $37.65 billion as at June but fell to $36. 4 billion last Thursday.
Banks, according to persons familiar with the discussions, are willing to embrace payments for international money transfer in naira to reduce the costs associated with importation the foreign currencies used for such payments.
"Everyone wants dollars, which is imported by banks and the CBN. And it is too expensive. If recipients accept the naira equivalent for payment of their international money transfer, it would reduce pressure on our foreign reserves. Banks will also be saving a lot of money as they have to import foreign currencies, particularly dollars," said a top official of one of the big banks.
It was gathered that Travelex - the importing logistics provider for the CBN- imports over $200million on behalf of the apex bank monthly.
But there is always the propensity for recipients of international money transfer to receive their money in foreign currencies because of the differentials between the official foreign exchange market (the Wholesale Dutch auction System where the CBN sells forex bi-weekly) and the black market. At the official market, a dollar exchanges at N159, while its N162 per dollar at the black market.
The apex bank had introduced the new policy on cash-based transactions which stipulates a 'cash handling charge' on daily cash withdrawals or cash deposits that exceed N500,000 for individuals and N3,000,000 for corporate bodies.
The new policy on cash-based transactions (withdrawals & deposits) in banks, according to the CBN aims at reducing (not eliminating) the amount of physical cash (coins and notes) circulating in the economy, and encouraging more electronic-based transactions (payments for goods, services, transfers, etc.)
The policy, among others is expected to drive development and modernisation of the payment system in line with Nigeria's vision 2020 goal of being amongst the top 20 economies by the year 2020. It is also to reduce the cost of banking services (including cost of credit) and drive financial inclusion by providing more efficient transaction options and greater reach as well as to improve the effectiveness of monetary policy in managing inflation and driving economic growth.

Day 9 Sighisoara
May 29, 2012
Well it never stopped raining, but from 5pm the rain became sort of ordinary, so I emerged from the hotel with camera under raincoat and walked around the historic town. There are some cars (and motorbikes) but not many heres a general view and a typical street:
The main square. As with the much bigger town of Timisoara, the buildings on all 4 sides of the square are like this:
There is a very long straight stairway in stone, walled and roofed in wood all the way up, leading to thechurch on the hill:
We are in Transylvania, dont forget. Tomorrow we will look at Vlad the Impalers castle at Bran, which reportedly is hopelessly touristy. Heres the very atmospheric graveyard at Sighisoara:

Surely by now you have heard of the infamous haricut Tim Tebow received this weekend at Denver Broncos training camp. It's been the buzz (no pun intended) of early season camp.
If you haven't, well, that picture above says it all. As a part of rookie hazing, Woodyard had his head shaved this weekend in the most ridiculously funny manner.
So why does a Florida Gator who ranks right up there with the most disliked rivals of UK fans make his way on to a UK blog? Well, a former Wildcat served as his personal barbor.
Current Denver Bronco and former UK linebacker Wesley Woodyard was the man behind the scissors (or electric razor, I should say). Woodyard styled the monk-like hairdo in what could only be inspired by some of his Kentucky-rooted frustrations.
"He was getting a few blows back from the college days," Tebow told reporters.
"It was my vision," Woodyard told The Denver Post.

B&H has a 2-pack of SanDisk 16GB Extreme SDHC cards for $47.50 (compare to $30 for a single card). These cards offer read speeds up to 80MB/s and write speeds up to 60MB/s and are not the 45MB/s variant that also carries the Extreme branding. Check out the deal here at B&H Photo.
After reading this post about the potential 60MB write speed, I went to the nearest shop to look for this card even I am not living in the states. I found a SanDisk package very similar to the description in this deal, but the shop I usually went to does not have any twin card pack. Store prices were equivalent to $41 & $24.5 for a single 32Gb & 16Gb card respectively.
Bought a 32Gb card and I can see the Read/Write up to 80/60 MB/s labels at the pack's back. Haven't done any testing yet, though.

I bought this wand to use in conjunction with a coil hose as a gift for my mother. She dislikes normal hoses because they kink and are hard to put away and she also has trouble reaching her hanging plants with a regular spray head. The got the two products in a matching purple color and the watering wand attached easily to the hose with no leaks. Unfortunately the wand did not perform well under the slightly reduced pressure created by the coil hose. The water had a nice spray pattern when holding the head down, but when using it to reach higher plants the spray turned into one large dribble. Since this is what I primarily wanted it for I will be returning it.

On January 19 (a long time ago!), my FLL team, the Beck Academy Blue Knights, took the first place Champion's Award at the Clemson Regional! They also took the second place Robot Performance Award, with a score of 315, and the first place Techincal Award! Due to unforseen problems with the robot and the mat, our other 2 rounds resulted in a rather depressing 105 and 110. Nonetheless, we qualified for the SC state tournament, which will take place Feburary 16.
You can view some pictures of the event in our school's gallery: http://www.greenville.k12.sc.us/beck/news/0708/RoboticsTeamWinsAgain/index.html
I'll be posting some comments and observations from the tournament later.
If anyone will also be going to the SC state tournament also at Clemson, be sure to stop by our pit area, the #784 Blue Knights: We will challenge you to game of LEGO Chess and have many giveaways.

The fiduciary program provides oversight of VA's most vulnerable beneficiaries who are unable to manage their VA benefits because of injury, disease, the infirmities of advanced age, or being under 18 years of age. VA appoints fiduciaries who manage VA benefits for these beneficiaries and conducts oversight of VA-appointed fiduciaries to ensure that they are meeting the needs of the beneficiaries they serve.
VA closely monitors fiduciaries for compliance with program responsibilities to ensure that VA benefits are being used for the purpose of meeting the needs, security, and comfort of beneficiaries and their dependents. In deciding who should act as fiduciary for a beneficiary, VA will always select the most effective and least restrictive fiduciary arrangement.
This means that VA will first consider whether the beneficiary can manage his/her VA benefits with limited supervision. VA will consider the choice of the beneficiary as well as any family, friends and caregivers who are qualified and willing to provide fiduciary services for the beneficiary without a fee.
As a last resort, VA will consider appointment of a paid fiduciary. For more information about VA's fiduciary program, please visit our website at benefits.va.gov/fiduciary/index.asp.
VA's homeless programs constitute the largest integrated network of homeless assistance programs in the country, offering a wide array of services to help Veterans recover from homelessness and live as self-sufficiently and independently as possible.
VA Health Care for Homeless Veterans (HCHV) Program provides a gateway to VA and community supportive services for eligible Veterans. Through the HCHV Program, Veterans are provided with case management and residential treatment in the community. The program also conducts outreach to homeless Veterans who are not likely to come to VA facilities on their own.
Homeless Veterans Supported Employment Program (HVSEP) provides vocational assistance, job development and placement, and ongoing employment supports designed to improve employment outcomes among homeless Veterans. HVSEP is coordinated between CWT and the continuum of Homeless Veterans Programs for the purpose of providing community-based vocational and employment services. All of the HVSEP vocational rehabilitation specialists (VRS) hired to provide employment services for the program consists of homeless, formerly homeless, or at risk of homelessness Veterans. For more information, please visit:
The National Call Center for Homeless Veterans (NCCHV) assists homeless Veterans, at-risk Veterans, their families, and other interested parties with linkages to appropriate VA and community- based resources. The call center provides trained VA staff members 24 hours a day, seven days a week to assess a caller's needs and connect them to appropriate resources. The call center can be accessed by dialing 1-877-4AID VET (1-877-424-3838). NCCHV Chat services are also available through the National Call Center's website at www.va.gov/homeless. NCCHV Chat enables Veterans, their families and friends to go on-line where they can anonymously chat with an information and referral specialist by visiting the www.va.gov/homeless webpage, clicking on the Help for Homeless Veteran badge, and then the Chat Online tab on the right side of the webpage.
VA's Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem Program provides funds to non-profit community agencies providing transitional housing (up to 24 months) and/or offering services to homeless Veterans, such as case management, education, crisis intervention, counseling, and services targeted towards specialized populations including homeless women Veterans. The goal of the program is to help homeless Veterans achieve residential stability, increase their skill levels and/or income, and obtain greater self-determination. For more information, please visit: www.va.gov/homeless/gpd.asp
The Housing and Urban Development-Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (HUD-VASH) Program provides permanent housing aand case management for eligible homeless Veterans who need community-based support to keep stable housing. This program allows eligible Veterans to live in Veteran-selected housing units with a "Housing Choice" voucher. These vouchers are portable to support the Veteran's choice of housing in communities served by their VA medical facility where case management services can be provided. HUD-VASH services include outreach and case management to ensure integration of services and continuity of care. This program enhances the ability of VA to serve homeless women Veterans, and homeless Veterans with families. For more information, please visit: www.va.gov/homeless/hud-vash.asp
The Supportive Services for Veterans Families (SSVF) Program is designed to rapidly re-house homeless Veteran families and prevent homelessness for those at imminent risk due to a housing crisis. Funds are granted to private non-profit organizations and consumer cooperatives that will assist very low-income Veteran families by providing a range of supportive services designed to promote housing stability. To meet this goal, grantees (private non- profit organizations and consumer cooperatives) provide eligible Veteran families with outreach, case management, and assistance in obtaining VA and other benefits, which may include: health care services; daily living services; personal financial planning services ; transportation services; fiduciary and payee services; legal services; child care services; and housing counseling services. In addition, grantees also provide time-limited payments to third parties (e.g., landlords, utility companies, moving companies, and licensed child care providers) if these payments help Veterans' families stay in or acquire permanent housing on a sustainable basis. To locate a SSVF provider in your community, please visit http://www.va.gov/homeless/ssvf.asp and look for the list of current year SSVF providers or call VA's National call Center for Homeless Veterans at 1-888-4AIDVET (1-888-424-3838).
In VA's Compensated Work Therapy/Transitional Residence (CWT/TR) Program, disadvantaged, at-risk, and homeless Veterans live in CWT/TR community-based supervised group homes while working for pay in VA's CWT Program. While in this program, they learn new job skills, relearn successful work habits, and regain a sense of self-esteem and self-worth.
The Veterans Justice Outreach Program (VJO) offers outreach and case management to Veteran involved in law enforcement encounters, overseen by treatment courts, and incarcerated in local jails who may be at risk for homelessness upon their release.
The Health Care for Re-Entry Veterans (HCRV) Program offers outreach, referrals, and short-term case management assistance for incarcerated Veterans who may be at risk for homelessness upon their release. Visit www.va.gov/homeless/ to locate an outreach worker

World War II era Filipino Veterans are eligible for certain VA benefits. Generally, Old Philippine Scouts are eligible for VA benefits in the same manner as U.S. Veterans. Commonwealth Army Veterans, including certain organized Filipino guerrilla forces and New Philippine Scouts residing in the United States who are citizens or lawfully admitted for permanent residence, are also eligible for VA health care in the United States on the same basis as U.S. Veterans.
Certain Commonwealth Army Veterans and new Philippine Scouts may be eligible for disability compensation and burial benefits. Other Veterans of recognized guerrilla groups also may be eligible for certain VA benefits. Survivors of World War II era Filipino Veterans may be eligible for dependency and indemnity compensation. Eligibility and the rates of benefits vary based on the recipient's citizenship and place of residence. Call 1-800-827-1000 for additional information.
VA monetary benefits, including disability compensation, pension, educational benefits, and burial allowances, are generally payable overseas. Some programs are restricted. Home loan guaranties are available only in the United States and selected U.S. territories and possessions. Educational benefits are limited to approved, degree- granting programs in institutions of higher learning. Beneficiaries living in foreign countries should contact the nearest American embassy or consulate for help. In Canada, contact an office of Veterans Affairs Canada. For information, visit www.vba.va.gov/bln/21/Foreign/index.htm.
Certain Merchant Marine seamen who served in World War II may qualify for Veterans benefits. When applying for medical care, Merchant Marine seamen must present their discharge certificate from the Department of Defense. Call 1-800-827-1000 for help obtaining a certificate.
VA may provide medical care to certain Veterans of nations allied or associated with the United States during World War I or World War II if authorized and reimbursed by the foreign government. VA also may provide hospitalization, outpatient care, and domiciliary care to former members of the armed forces of Czechoslovakia or Poland who fought in World War I or World War II in armed conflict against an enemy of the United States if they have been U.S. citizens for at least 10 years. World War Service by Particular Groups A number of groups who provided military-related service to the United States can receive VA benefits. A discharge by the Secretary of Defense is needed to qualify. Service in the following groups has been certified as active military service for benefits purposes:
VA benefits are affected if a beneficiary is convicted of a felony and imprisoned for more than 60 days. Disability or death pension paid to an incarcerated beneficiary must be discontinued. Disability compensation paid to an incarcerated Veteran rated 20 percent or more disabled is limited to the 10 percent rate. For a Veteran whose disability rating is 10 percent, the payment is reduced to half of the rate payable to a Veteran evaluated as 10 percent disabled.
Any amounts not paid to the Veteran while incarcerated may be apportioned to eligible dependents. Payments are not reduced for participants in work-release programs, residing in halfway houses, or under community control. Failure to notify VA of a Veteran's incarceration can result in overpayment of benefits and the subsequent loss of all VA financial benefits until the overpayment is recovered. VA benefits will not be provided to any Veteran or dependent wanted for an outstanding felony warrant.
The Health Care for Reentry Veterans Program (HCRV) offers outreach to Veterans incarcerated in state and federal prisons, and referrals and short-term case management assistance upon release from prison. he Veterans Justice Outreach Program (VJO) offers outreach and case management to Veterans involved in law enforcement encounters, overseen by treatment courts, and incarcerated in local jails.

Boring baguette
2 Attachment(s)
I made a so-so baguette with the extra pizza dough from our weekend pizza night, and I'm looking for help. It was 65% hydration, Caputo Rosso -- it made some great pizza. I stored the dough overnight in the refrigerator, proofed it for 5 hours (folding twice), shaped the loaf via Hamelman, gave it a final proof of about 90 minutes and baked it between two FB Stones at 425ºF with convection on. (I know it would have been better in one of my WFOs, but it was cold, drizzly and dark). The internal temp was 205ºF.
It was OK, but the crust is too light, too thin and not crunchy enough. I also didn't get a nice grigne. The crumb was OK, but more elastic would be better.
Any ideas? I know this loaf would have sprung and been perfect in a WFO, but sometimes you need to bake inside.
Thanks for the input.
Re: Boring baguette
I think it looks quite good for leftover pizza dough...also baguette are somewhat boring...I might suggest a higher bake temp with steam and probably no convection...good baguette ususally are baked in a very hot shallow oven chamber with lots of steam and then get vented about half way through to set the crust...can be vented sooner if you like a lot of crack to the crust...
Re: Boring baguette
Thanks Dutch,
It's true that your basic baguette isn't a work of art. I guess that's why they bake twice a day in France -- fresh, but usually uninspiring.
Hotter at the start, lots of steam to start, then vented. I'll try that.
Thanks again,
Re: Boring baguette
Hi James,
I agree with Dutch - hotter oven - and be sure the stone is really hot, ie, heat the oven for 45 mins - 1 hour before baking.
As an aside, I had some Peter Reinhart sourdough pizza dough in the fridge for 11 days (yes, 11 days!) already shaped into pizza balls. I had too much bread to make yesterday to make pizza, so shaped into 2 torpedo loaves and let proof for 3 hours. Baked in the WFO and they had huge oven spring and a nice, even, rather shiny crumb. They are VERY sour but not boring! I just tried it as an experiment as I hate wasting dough. Moral of the story is - unless it's eating up everything in the fridge - bake it!
Re: Boring baguette
Hi Annie!
ELEVEN DAYS! You must have created a whole new lifeform in the dough by then! WOW!
More seriously, did you have any special handling problems? When I let my sourdough dough go more than a couple of days it tends to lose structure. OTOH, it CAN give great crust. Pleae tell us more about the bread...

A woman calls and says that part of a garden hose out front disappeared into the ground. Her son and husband were unable to pull it out. She suspects a crazy groundhog. She thought it would make a good photo and story. I demurred. While getting good photo with stories can sometimes be difficult, a disappearing garden hose, I think, would be jumping the shark. Of course, our food-related photos lately are not exactly all that exciting either, but it's that time of the season. But we'll try not to gorge ourselves too much.

HTC today debuted the first 4G Windows Phone to enter the Australian market, teaming up with Telstra to launch the Titan 4G.
The smartphone targets business customers already familiar with Microsoft software. It runs on Windows Phone 7.5, which offers Exchange ActiveSync mobile email and Office Hub along with Microsoft's SkyDrive online storage and file sharing service.
The Titan 4G is powered by 1.5 GHz Snapdragon processor and 1GB RAM. It is on the larger side for a smartphone - measuring 132mm long including its 4.7in display.
The handset boasts a 16MP camera with 720p HD video recording, as well as a 1.3MP camera on the front.
The Titan 4G will retail through Telstra for $78 per month on a 24 month plan for business customers, and $79 per month for 24 month for consumers, from Tuesday.
It is available for outright purchase of $888.
The launch marks the arrival of HTC's second 4G handset into the Australian market, and the third overall.
HTC became the first vendor to release a 4G handset locally when its Velocity 4G smartphone debuted in January. It was followed by Samsung in March with the debut of its Galaxy S II 4G.

'Grey's Anatomy' star Camilla Luddington gets painted for 'Tomb Raider' video gameAdd to Favorites | Grey's Anatomy
Camilla Luddington is pulling double duty this week, playing doctor in training Jo Wilson on "Grey's Anatomy" and...body painting?
Turns out the florescent paint are image reflectors to help animators transform Luddington into Lara Croft for "Rise of the Tomb Raider." Luddington will be stepping into the boots of the famous video game gun wielding vixen for the second time after last year's "Tomb Raider."
"#tombraider fans. This is #mova. Florescent paint that is sprayed all over my face 2give 7000 points of ref!!!" the actress tweets with the glowing picture. According to the actress, regular motion dots only give 90 points of reference so the paint will add up to a much clearer capture -- and the paint can only be seen in black light.
Luddington's previous performance as Croft earned her a VGX nomination for Best Voice Actress.
"Rise of Tomb Raider" won't be ready for play until holiday season next year, but you can catch Luddington on "Grey's Anatomy" when it premieres September 25 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC

Software testing and management provider Revolution IT has for the first time made its HP software range available as a subscription service to customers.
Software from HP's Quality, Performance, Security and Business Availability centres, as well as Project and Portfolio management were included in the new REVFLEX service.
"Each centre is a range of products that customers had to go out and buy licenses around. Now customers can use it when they want to and pay in a subscription type model. It's flexible," Jamie Duffield, director at Revolution IT, told CRN.
Duffield said the service was aimed at "clients that can't afford to have an outlay of perpetual licences".
The 2009 CRN Fast50 No.15's vendor partners include HP, SAP, IBM, and attask. However, at this stage Duffield said "it will only offer HP software as a service".
"It's based on our client needs, they want access to flexible pricing options and HP came to the party.
"The REVFLEX service is available as one month, three month and one year subscription. For example the Quality centre costs $29 a day for five users for 12 months.
"There's also many different ways you can slice it up and it goes cheaper than that," he said.
Duffield said Revolution IT was HP's Asia Pacific partner of the year in the software space and it provided first line support for HP.
"It's hosted in Australia by HP. We add the testing, IP and expertise around making this software work. Any bit of software is as good as who is driving," he said.

Timbers sign goalkeepers Saunders and Reynolds
PORTLAND, Ore. - The Portland Timbers have added the services of goalkeepers Josh Saunders and Sam Reynolds for the 2005 season, it was announced today.
"Having Josh back in goal for a third season is a big step in getting us where we want to be defensively, Timbers general manager Jim Taylor said. "He is a tremendous talent and we're glad to have him between the posts. Sam has shown a lot of promise in training camp and we look forward to watching him develop as a player in this league."
Saunders, who comes to the Timbers on loan after signing with the Los Angeles Galaxy, spent time in the MLS club's training camp before joining the Timbers in late March.
Entering his third campaign with Portland, Saunders leads the Timbers' all-time USL ledger in wins (26) and goals-against average (1.00), while tying for the top spot in shutouts with 12 clean sheets from 2003-04.
One of the top talents in the USL First Division, Saunders, 24, ran up a scoreless streak of 363 minutes last season from July 28-Aug. 5, collecting three consecutive shutouts in that span.
Reynolds, 23, joins the Timbers in his first professional season out of Cal State-Fullerton. A four-year letterman with the Titans, Reynolds started in 57 of 59 games played and posted a career 1.51 goals-against average, including 271 saves.
The Timbers begin their fifth season in the USL First Division this Saturday, April 23, at PGE Park, where they'll play host to the Toronto Lynx at 7 p.m.
Timbers magnet schedules will be given out to the first 1,000 entrants, courtesy of PGE.
Season tickets, club seats, group packages, party suites, flex plans and mini-plans for the 2005 campaign are currently on sale. Timbers' ticket plans start as low as $77.00 and are available by contacting the team's ticket office at (503) 553-5555.

GOOGLE wants you to hand over all your digital data. At least, that is the gist of notes from a corporate presentation inadvertently leaked onto the search engine's website last week.
The notes, which have since been removed, reveal that the search engine has plans for an "infinite" storage system to hold all its users' files, emails and photos. These could then be accessed via any web-enabled computer.
"If you have the ability to access your files remotely, you can work on them from anywhere," says Danny Sullivan, editor of search industry website Searchenginewatch.com. However, the US government's recent efforts to get its hands on Google's search records (New Scientist, 28 January, p 23) might make some people think twice about handing over their files.

Toronto newspaper digitises the work of 20-year-old reporter Ernest Hemingway
There's a scene in Friends when he Chandler tells Monica he wants to call their baby Hemingway as he's his favourite author – when pushed of course he can't name a single Hemingway title. It's a clever joke because Hemingway has become a byword for a certain kind of cool, the hard-drinking, hard-fishing, Cuba-dwelling template to which many would-be writers aspire. Of course it wasn't always like this though and aged just 20 he joined The Toronto Star as a reporter, going to become the paper's European correspondent even though his editors deemed him "too big for his britches."
Luckily for us the paper is now digitising his pieces from his time in Toronto and it's a staggeringly interesting insight into the early life, literary and otherwise, of one of the most revered writers around. The Star has also published an exclusive newsprint collection of around 70 of his articles returning his earliest works to the form in which they were intended to be written.
Definitely worth a poke around if this kind of thing floats your (fishing) boat.

European football support is huge, chances are that if you're not an avid supporter of a certain team someone in your circle of friends and family is. Since before the days of Cantona and Best friends have been getting together to watch a game and throw back a couple of drinks, and other than the shape of TVs, not much has changed. But, even since those early days there's been one over-hanging problem; keeping your beverage crispy-cool while you watch. That too is now a thing of the past thanks to the innovative chaps behind the football club bottle cooler.
Designed to
emulate the jersey of a chosen team, the bottle cooler easily slips over your bottle
to keep it cool while you try to do the same. The snug design is comfortable in
your hand and gives you yet another opportunity to show your support for the
team you know and love while accomplishing its functional purpose. Available in
the kit of the majority of premier league teams, no true football fan should be
without an official football club bottle cooler for his or her beverage.

A proposal to abolish the Europa League and double the size of the Champions League to 64 clubs is among a number of changes to European competitions being considered by UEFA.
The European governing body is pondering changes to both their club competitions and will make a decision in 2014.
Another proposal being looked at is to award Champions League qualification to the winners of the Europa League, and possibly even the runners-up too, in a bid to boost interest in the second-tier competition.

Kampala — THE National Forest Authority (NFA) is embroiled in a conflict with high-ranking government officials over encroachment on part of Entebbe's Kitubulu forest reserve that protects Lake Victoria from silting.
Kitubulu has also been earmarked for commemorative tree planting by the Queen of England and delegates during the Commonwealth meeting to be held in Uganda next year.
Last week, NFA officials found houses said to belong to top government officials including former Chief of Staff, Major General Joshua Masaba and Edward Mpagi who works with Bank of Uganda.
Others were David Woods of Uganda Hotel and Catering Association who allegedly bought his land from Deborah Mbabazi, a former RDC.
However, the developers said Entebbe Municipal Council allocated the land to them and that they were not aware that they were residing in a forest reserve.
In a letter dated June 19, Paul Bagyenda, a lecturer at Makerere University, protested against the impending eviction, saying the land was allocated to him legally by the local authorities.
NFA's Gaster Kiyingi said four out of the 80-hectare reserve was encroached upon yet it was vital in protecting birds and primates that would be harnessed for urban tourism. "It is a lakeshore forest reserve supposed to protect the lake from consequences of soil erosion," Kiyingi said.
Other forests that protect the lakeshores include South Busoga, Zika, Jubia and Kyewaga. Kiyingi blamed the encroachment on political interference, saying, "We have been getting directives restraining us from evicting encroachers."
President Yoweri Museveni issued several directives warning forest officials against evicting over 180,000 encroachers in forest reserves during the recently concluded political campaigns. Ends

It is said that it is from he that Rallos Zek pulled the seeds and gave life to the first orcs of Norrath. Tallon was once a mortal orc, but following the events of the Elder Age, which saw the Rallosian Empire invading the Plane of Earth, Tallon, and his twin brother Vallon, were summoned to the Plane of War to reside with their "father," Rallos Zek. Here, the two brothers battle each other by commanding legions of ogres known as the Diaku. During the Age of Turmoil, mortals invaded the Planes of Power seeking Zebuxoruk. On their way, they assaulted Rallos Zek's stronghold, Drunder, within the Plane of War. It was there that Tallon and Vallon defended the Warlord. Appearance Tallon Zek has retained his orc-like features after ascending to god-hood. In most lore, he is depicted as a grizzled war veteran with white facial hair and mohawk, wearing plate mail, and wielding a longbow. During the Age of Turmoil and the invasion of the Planes of Power, Tallon Zek manifested himself very similarly to the descriptions in lore. Although his hair was not white, he still wielded a powerful bow he used to pick off assaulters of the fortress of Zek. Tallon Zek is one of many gods who have yet to return to Norrath during the Age of Destiny.

In well over 100k miles with various trailers behind GM half tons I have had ZERO towing related issues. It's not 1975 anymore. Half ton trucks today have performance and towing specs. that blow the doors off 3/4 T trucks from "back in the day". The OP would do well to spend time on rv.net with particular attention paid to the towing tutorials and searching various manufacturers. Unfortunately, so far this thread has a lot of "opinions" that could easily be misconstrued as facts. Comments like half tons only being suitable for fiberglass egg trailers, or "Jayco is bottom of the barrel" really make it clear that this is a bike forum, and that credible RV knowledge is best found elsewhere. A good start in the search for a quality trailer would include Jayco, K-Z, and Nash products.
Agree with most of your post and would just point out that Nash and Arctic Fox and both made by Northwood Mfg.
In your research, you'll find that a lot has changed in the RV market with the economic downturn, some brands are gone, some are made by other makers. But if you got some cash there are some pretty good deals out there. My 22H was listed at $28k and I paid $22k for it.

When processing a batch of trace files it is likely that not all of the readings will share all the same Experiment File fields. As described above Pregap supports using an external database for storing such information. In the following sections we outline methods for providing a very simple text based database.
The simplest of these cases is where all the readings to be processed with
Pregap are from the same project (let's call this project
sequenced using the same vectors, and all have the same expected vector insert
size. The only differing information for each reading is it's primer type
(whether a forward or reverse reading, and whether using the universal primer
or from a custom oligo), vector primer site (which depends on the primer
type), the reading name, and the template name. This information corresponds
to the
SP and
TN Experiment File line
types. As the
ID field is read from the initial Experiment File created
we only need to provide database hooks for the other line types. The other
necessary line types can be defined as constants.
We add the following to our `.pregaprc' file.
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Our database hooks # Constant things CN=TEST SF=m13mp18.vec SV=m13mp18 SC=6249 SI=1400..2000 CF=lawrist7.seq CV=lawrist7 ST=2 # Read from database file ST_com='pregap_lookup db-short $ID 1' PR_com='pregap_lookup db-short $ID 2' SP_com='pregap_lookup db-short $ID 3' TN_com='pregap_lookup db-short $ID 4' # Constants evaluated as commands at pregap startup OP=`whoami` DT=`date`
The constant line types are defined simply using, for example,
CN=TEST (to define the gap database name). Following these are
_com commands. These use a small program (supplied with the
package distribution) named
pregap_lookup that takes two arguments. The
program searches a plain text file finding lines with the first word
matching the first argument (
$ID in this case, which is the
reading name). It then prints the nth subsequent word on the line.
where n is the second argument to
pregap_lookup. This means we can
store our primer, strand and template information in a simple text file,
named `db-short' in our example, as follows.
#ID ST PR SP TN a11bc.f1 2 1 41 a11bc a11bc.r1 2 2 -24 a11bc a11bc.f2 2 3 41 a11bc a11bc.r2 2 4 -24 a11bc a22bc.s1 1 1 41 a22bc
Note that the
PR field now can hold both the old
PR and
DR Experiment File line types.See section Experiment File.
Finally, some line types (chiefly
DT for date and
OP for
operator) are not known at the time of creating a `.pregaprc' file,
but are still constant for all readings. These have been defined last in
the `.pregaprc' file. Note the use of backquotes instead of forward
quotes. For example,
DT=`date` sets the
DT field for all
readings to be the output of the
date command.

The stresses and trauma of war are not limited to military personnel on the battlefield. Defense contractors exposed to combat zones exhibit similar rates of mental health problems as members of the military, according to a report by RAND Corporation.
"Although these contractors are not supposed to engage in offensive combat, they may nonetheless be exposed to many of the stressors that are known to have physical and mental health implications for military personnel," the report said.
RAND surveyed 660 Defense contractors around the world who had been deployed to a conflict zone at least once between early 2011 and early 2013.
Among respondents, 25 percent met criteria for probable post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In addition, 18 percent screened positive for depression, and 10 percent reported high-risk drinking.
The numbers were even higher among U.S. respondents — 32 percent met criteria for probable PTSD.
In comparison, RAND said it is estimated 20 percent of U.S. service members returning from deployments suffer from PTSD.
Exposure to stressors such as gunfire, improvised explosive devices and deaths of fellow personnel affect the physical and mental well-being of both military personnel and contractors.
"In 2010, T. Christian Miller of ProPublica was the first to report that contractor deaths had exceeded those among military personnel in Iraq and Afghanistan," the report said. From January through June 2010, 250 civilians died in conflict, compared with 235 services members.
The length of time and proximity to the combat zone were contributing factors in levels of PTSD and other mental health disorders among the surveyed contractors.
Transportation contractors showed the highest rates of probable PTSD. RAND attributed this to greater combat exposure than other types of contractors, but also noted the small sample size of transportation contractors.
The report speculated that rates of PTSD among contractors might be high because of a lack of mental health services available for contractors.
"Contractors are often referred to in the literature as a 'shadow force,' operating below the radar or in the shadow of their military counterparts," the report said.
The survey revealed only 28 percent of contractors with probable PTSD were receiving mental health treatment.
Compared to veterans, "contractors with probable PTSD or depression were twice as likely to report barriers to receiving mental health treatment, including cost, embarrassment and concerns about being perceived as weak," the report said.
RAND outlined a few recommendations to improve mental health services for contractors.
The report said private contracting firms should provide resources and training in stress management prior to deployment. Such training among military personnel was shown to reduce instances of PTSD.
It also recommended increasing awareness and encouraging use of mental health care, in order to reduce the negative stigma associated with seeking treatment for mental health problems.
