As noted earlier, the second half of Ric Flair's appearance on Steve Austin's podcast was released yesterday. Flair was asked about his time working in TNA, and mentioned that working with Dixie Carter was great. Flair also commented on the future of the company. "I don't think much longer," Flair replied, after Austin asked how much longer the company could stay in business. "They're making live TV now. Her [Dixie Carter] father's tremendously wealthy, but at some point of time, you've gotta say man," to which Austin added, "a write-off becomes a loss." You can listen to the podcast here if you haven't done so already. The post Ric Flair Comments on TNA Eventually Folding appeared first on All Wrestling News.

Mini's story begins in 1912, when William Morris graduated from producing bicycles in addition to repairing, renting and selling cars in England to actually building them. After passing through a variety of owners over the years, the company eventually came to be owned by BMW.
The contemporary Mini Cooper automobiles were introduced in 2001.
The first model to appear under BMW ownership was called the Mini Cooper. A more powerful Cooper S model and an even higher performing John Cooper Works model soon followed it. This was in homage to John Cooper, of the Cooper Car Company who made his name tweaking the original Mini automobiles for more performance.
Cooper was also a very successful racing driver. His name licensed to BMW to adorn the resurrected BMW Mini vehicle, Cooper was also a consultant on the development of the BMW version of the car.
Today's Mini Cooper lineup includes a two-seat coupe and a two-seat convertible. The traditional hatchback model is also offered in a variety of performance tunes. There's the crossover-inspired Countryman, and a station wagon-ish model called the Clubman. The most recent Mini Cooper vehicle to be offered (as of June 2013) is a two-door version of the Countryman called the Paceman.
With a selection of some of the most fun to drive models available, Mini is one of the most energetic car brands in the world. Autobytel's Mini reviews examine them closely to provide thorough, well-considered, unbiased expert analysis. These Mini reviews are produced in an effort to provide you with the most accurate information available to assist your car buying process.

Tissues of greater scaup (Aythya marila mariloides) and components of their habitat (sediment, plankton, macroalgae, and invertebrates) were collected for heavy metal analysis in the winter of 1996–97 from US Department of the Interior wildlife refuges in the Long Island region. Geographic and temporal relationships between the concentration of nine metals in tissue and in habitat components were examined. In greater scaup tissues and habitat components, concentrations of As and Se were highest in Branford, Connecticut; Pb values were greatest in Oyster Bay, New York; and Hg concentrations were largest in Sandy Hook, New Jersey. Over the course of the winter, the concentration of Hg in liver increased, and concentrations of Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Pb, Se, and Zn in kidney decreased. Based on several criteria derived from geographic and temporal trends, metals were ranked using the apparent biomonitoring efficacy of greater scaup (As = Cr > Cu = Pb = Zn = Hg > Se = Cd > Ni). Although the seasonal migration and daily mobility of greater scaup are drawbacks to using this species as a sentinel for metal pollution, it was possible to demonstrate a relationship between geographic and temporal patterns of metals in habitat and greater scaup tissue. However, most metal concentrations in tissue were below thresholds known to adversely affect health of waterfowl.

Rigged to Blow
[By James Kunstler]
It's hard to venture around this land and not feel like you are living in something like an obsolete Las Vegas hotel exquisitely rigged for implosion. The massive system that we've poured all our national wealth into, and elaborated to the last limits of refinement over half a century, is poised for failure. The prospect is so dreadful that no legitimate authority in politics, business, the news media, or even those cultural outlands of the arts and religion, can bring themselves to express a plausibly coherent view of what happens next to a living arrangement with no future and an economy of no purpose.
The system I refer to, of course, is the car-crazy infrastructure for everyday life, and all the activities supporting it, that most Americans now living regard as the natural and normal medium for human existence, as salt water is the natural and normal medium for squid. The public brings no critical reflection to being in it, and so its failure will eventually come as a deadly surprise -- as a red tide surprises the denizens of a tropical sea. When it occurs, the public will not be able to escape from their investments in this way of life. Some may feel swindled, but they will not lose their sense of having been entitled to a happier destiny, so the chances for the acting-out of massive political grievance are high.
It's a tragic irony that we got so good at the advertising game the past half-century, because in doing so we rigged a sub-system dedicated to reinforcing all our false entitlements. So when the dreadful moment of recognition comes that we can't possibly continue being a nation of happy motorists shuttling between the strip malls and subdivisions, the bewilderment will be monumental. Nobody will believe that it is happening, or have a clue how we got ourselves into such a fix.
For the moment, America is being subjected to the slow squeeze on gasoline prices, rather than a sudden sharp shock, with the pumps now averaging $3.09 nationwide. But there's a lot tension accumulating in the process. Gasoline prices are going up remorselessly now mainly because of bottlenecks in the refinery sector. Demand has gotten so high -- we are driving so much, regardless of up-or-downticks in measured economic activity, because the way things are laid out we have no choice -- that our existing refineries are operating at over 90 percent capacity (when they are running). This has led to the deferral of a lot of routine maintenance, so the refineries are either running flat-out or they're not running at all.
Most of our oil refineries are more than fifty years old. The metal in their pipes and retort vessels is fatigued. Things break. The companies that sell gasoline, like Exxon-Mobil, realize that they are in a "sunset" industry, so they are not interested in investing any fraction of their currently enormous profits in new refineries (especially when they can use that money to buy back their own stock and jack up the share price). Besides, the public regards oil refineries as obnoxious, and if a new one were even proposed somewhere, an army of NIMBYs would arise and march on the local zoning board to oppose it -- so why bother?
Last week, a reader sent me an elaborate Powerpoint show put together by a Peak Oil "optimist," someone who believes that there are vast recoverable reserves of oil waiting to be be tapped out there -- as opposed to those like myself who don't think new supply will offset declines in the known oil fields of the world. It seemed to me that most of this optimist's case was based on the fantasy that the tar sands of Alberta and the oil sands of the Venezuelan jungle will make up for what we no longer get out of places like Ghawar in Saudi Arabia, Cantarell in Mexico, West Texas, and the other old standbys.
The Alberta tar sands are big, but even the Canadian government does not project them paying out much more than three million barrels a day when they reach maximum production in five or ten years, and the process will probably poison all the groundwater east of the Canadian Rockies. Meanwhile, world demand has reached about 85 million barrels a day. The project in Venezuela I regard as even less likely to ever reach production. Hugo Chavez has just chased out the foreign oil companies who have any technical expertise, but I think the jungle itself would defeat even them, and it will certainly prevent Chavez's lame crew from getting any product out -- he's having technical problems out in the old familiar Maracaibo Basin.
The current sense of stalemate or stasis in Middle East politics the past year is certainly promoting an air of unreality. The civil war in Iraq grinds on no matter what the US police force does there, or what Congress and the White House do here. We bluster about Iran, but we don't do anything about them, and they bluster back at us. The Saudis bust a hundred Islamic revolutionaries every few months and keep their operation rolling. The Holy Land is tense but quiet for now.
Events in geopolitics -- things that happen "above the ground," as they say in oil circles -- seem kind of stuck for the moment. We forget that these things become unstuck rather suddenly, through slippage, or a process like phase change in physics, where conditions persist -- until suddenly they don't. This is pretty much what happens to a fifty-year-old Las Vegas hotel. It stands there out on the Strip year after year, perhaps with decreasing decorum, but it persists until the day comes when somebody throws a switch and the whole edifice comes down, reeking carpets and all.

So, Paul's blog post pointing to Todd's blog post got me thinking. The main point Paul summarized was that duplicating data was a great way to scale, and used Todd's reference to Flickr and how in their partition-by-user scheme, they put a comment in the commenter's shard as well as in the commentee's shard.
Welcome the the 99th edition of Log Buffer, the weekly review of database blogs.
Twitter has had many outages recently. A real "awesome lesson learned" is "do not tweak production without testing first." In every job I have had I have first learned and then taught the concept of "test everything possible." Which Twitter has not learned yet.
In my previous post, I described the most common cause for unstable plans due to bind peeking — histograms. It is now time to move forward and take a look at another case, namely range-based predicates. Strictly speaking, the cases I'm going to describe can appear without range-based predicates as well, you just need to remember that a range-based operation doesn't necessarily imply a range-based predicate.
magine yourself, happily computing when all of a sudden you hear a rather alien sound eminating from your hard drive. Something that sounds, perhaps, like some combination of a roofer banging in a nail, and a miner's pick as he works on releasing a stubborn piece of ore from a cave wall. Certainly not a good sound to hear coming from the general region of your hard drive on a nice, sunny day. Especially when you have not taken a backup in over two years…Please, learn from my mistake, and next time you hear an odd clicking sound, don't try to outsmart your already-broken hardware.
The 98th edition of Log Buffer, the weekly review of database blogs, has been published on Jeff's SQL Server Blog.

August 25, 2007 08:19 AM - Saul Gomez, Global Policy Innovations Program
What do political heartbreaker turned environmental heartthrob Al Gore, British rockers Coldplay, and multinational banking giant HSBC have in common? They are all seeking to make personal and business activities carbon neutral. More and more, wealthy individuals and companies are offsetting their carbon consumption out of a sincere concern for the environment, for good public relations, and for economic value.

August 24, 2007 05:38 PM - Stanford University, California
Stanford University - A regional study featured in this month's issue of Science magazine shows that land-use policies in Peru have been key to tempering rain forest degradation and destruction in that country. Using satellite technology developed by Greg Asner, assistant professor, by courtesy, of geological and environmental sciences at Stanford, scientists at the Carnegie Institution's Department of Global Ecology led an international effort to analyze six years of high-resolution satellite data covering most—79 percent—of the Peruvian Amazon for their findings.

title="No Or Both Gender Male Female Restroom Sign - Gender Neutral Restroom Bathroom Sign"
target="_blank"> alt="No Or Both Gender Male Female Restroom Sign - Gender Neutral Restroom Bathroom Sign" width=100 height=111 vspace=2 hspace=10
src="http://gi251.photobucket.com/groups/gg303/3GUUBQH84A/no-gender_restroom_sign.gif" align="right" border=2>Today, I found out that Missoula, Montana's city council has scheduled a vote for April 12th on a non discrimination policy that includes sexual orientation and gender identity. This is a good step forward for the state of Montana. If you do not know, Missoula is known as the bastion of the progressive movement in Montana. Unfortunately this has brought out the crazies that we have seen across the country. From Gainsville to Kalamazoo, The Blend has covered the crazy bathroom meme. Get ready for some keyboard protection, because this website — NotMyBathroom.com — contains the crazy to a new level.
The Missoulian, the local news paper has done two articles that can be found here: Human rights group wants sexual orientation non discrimination ordinance and Missoula Councilors introduce proposal.
So kudos for those councilors working for our equality:
The ordinance protects people in the areas of employment, housing and public accommodations. The draft defines public accommodations as "a place that caters or offers its services, goods, or facilities to the general public … (including) a public inn, restaurant, eating house, hotel, roadhouse … motel, soda fountain, soft drink parlor, tavern, nightclub, trailer park, resort, campground, barbering, cosmetology, electrology … swimming pool, skating rink, golf course, cafe, ice cream parlor … hospital and all other public amusement and business establishments."
It makes exceptions for "distinctly private" clubs or institutions. Organizations with more than 100 members don't fall into that category, according to the draft. Lodges of national fraternal organizations are considered private.
[More below the fold.]That right there does cover the organizations like the Eagles or the Masons or whoever that the right wingnuts are afraid we are trying to invade. The notmybathroom people believe this ordinance is just an excuse for the destruction of the American life.
On their website, they published a letter imploring the citizenry to get involved. From the letter linked to on its front page, the writer assails society for this homosexual agenda acceptance. It is the usual round of the Peter and the Bam-Bam type bleating. To quote from the letter the writer also goes off on the Catholic church.
Remember, the Catholic Church did not have a problem because they allowed molesters to become Priests. They suffered horrendous damage because they allowed homosexuals to become Priests. That is why most of the children and young people molested were boys. That is the same experience the Boy Scouts of America had and the reason they will not allow homosexuals to work with their boys.
The letter has 7 points on how to defend against the Agenda. Each point is what you would expect and they get crazier by each point. Point 7 has some goodies.
The law would put a stamp of acceptance on homosexuality and give the homosexuals special protection. There seems to be a feeling that this law would close the loop and if they can get homosexuals protected then everyone will be. The opposite is true. There have been discrimination and violent crimes and even murders in Missoula of people who were Veterans or homeless. Most people would not be protected from discrimination under the new law and the list is long. A few examples are fat people, skinny people, smart people, dumb people, foster children, adopted children, foster parents, ugly people, beautiful people, etc.
The writer tries to use the evil strawman against us and then plays to the emotions of the readers. I love the use of the ugly person and the beautiful person. I fail to understand how this is even remotely related to the real discrimination that we have faced out there. The worst part about this writer is that there is no name attached though the writer on the site claims to have fought the homosexual agenda for almost two decades. This person is much like the freepers hiding behind the intertubes anonymity. On the front page an address and phone number is listed, but no other contact info.
I would like to close with two more quotes to illustrate how this writer uses every tried and true talking point by the wing nut right.
Does this mean that the participants in this group hate homosexuals and those who may be gender confused? Absolutely not! This alliance is made up of people who have close friends and co-workers and family members who claim to be homosexual and some gender confused. We don't treat them any different than anyone else. However, we must recognize the freedom and right of people to be able to hire and house and allow in bathrooms, locker rooms and showers whomever they feel safe to allow in those places or positions. Why should organizations like the Boy Scouts be required to allow girls in their "activities" or be required to hire homosexuals or gender confused people to teach the boys in the program?
So we are not hated by you, but you are preventing us from having equal rights. The writer claims to not treat us differently but by discriminating they are.
Finally, a little biblical perspective from the author:
As we slouch toward Gomorrah I hope people will wake up and speak out before it is too late. For the sake of children and families you need to get involved.
Oh the poor children. What about our children and our families. Yet again we fail to register to them as families and children.

Big Life is very grateful for the generosity of our sponsors:
Big Life Foundation was founded by photographer Nick Brandt and conservationist Richard Bonham in September 2010.
With Richard Bonham as Director of Operations for Big Life in Africa, and Project Manager Damian Bell in Tanzania, Big Life has now expanded and employs over 315 rangers, maintains 31 ranger outposts, has 15 vehicles, and 2 planes for aerial monitoring and protecting 2 million acres of wilderness in the Amboseli-Tsavo ecosystem of East Africa.
Big Life was the first organization in East Africa with co-ordinated cross-border anti-poaching operations.
Recognizing that sustainable conservation can only be achieved through a community-based collaborative approach, Big Life uses innovative conservation strategies to reduce the loss of wildlife to poaching, defeat the ivory trade, mitigate human-wildlife conflict and manage scarce and fragile natural resources.
Big Life's vision is to take the successful holistic conservation model in the Amboseli-Tsavo ecosystem and replicate it across the African continent.

In Georgia, Mets Spoil 'Chipper Jones Day'
ATLANTA—Jon Niese and Lucas Duda helped the Mets spoil Chipper Jones's retirement party Friday night. Niese allowed one run in seven innings and Duda hit a three-run home run to lift the Mets to a 3-1 win over the Atlanta Braves.
In his final start of the season, Niese allowed only four hits and three walks while striking out three. He finishes with a 3.40 ERA.
The Braves honored Jones, their longtime third baseman and Mets nemesis, with a half-hour pre-game ceremony at Turner Field. Mets players and coaches stood on the top step of the dugout and applauded throughout the event, which included a video tribute and remarks from several Braves dignitaries.
—Brian Costa

Pros: Strong enough to lift a beeeeeg fish.
Cons: Don't know one
I use this pole for bringing up fish on my pier. The pier is high so none of the fishnet poles at the sports stores have them that long. Lost my last one in Ike. No painting stores or pool supply stores near me seem to carry yours. It is the construction/weight of the metal handle that is different. Broke my other substitute bringing up a small shark.

Good telescoping pole that is sturdy.
(5 out of 5 Stars) Telescopic pole

from Annandale, VA
Pros: good product/price
Cons: very poor packaging.
Good product and good price. Box arrived bent and nothing inside to protect the pole. I thought for sure that I would be returning the pole because it would be bent. Again, spending a few extra seconds to make sure that the items arrive in good condition is a huge plus. Nobody wants to receive a package that looks like it been in a war. For me if a company takes the time to make sure everything arrives in condition...shows they really care.

text: Big day for stocks shows why the bull market can keep running by Jen Wieczner @FortuneMagazine May 8, 2015, 8:32 PM EDT E-mail Tweet Facebook Google Plus Linkedin Share icons U.S. stock markets finished strong Friday, with the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq all rising more than 1% after the April jobs report beat economists' predictions. But it was the price of oil, which rallied to more than $59, that fueled the biggest individual stock gains. Six out of the top 10 performers in the S&P 500 were energy companies, with Texas-based oil and gas producers Southwestern Energy SWN and Range Resources RRC , along with utility NRG Energy NRG , leading the way by posting increases of nearly 6% each. Chesapeake Energy CHK and offshore driller Transocean RIG also gained more than 5% apiece, followed by Noble Energy NE , which rose more than 4%. Interestingly, the energy producers among those winning stocks actually get more of their sales from natural gas, which fell on Friday, than from oil. But several of the companies' shares had been down previously during the week after they reported a mixed bag of first-quarter earnings results. Part of the rally may just have been due to a bounce back off those lows. On the flip side, several companies that had recently been on a hot streak gave back some of those gains Friday. The biggest loser was Monster Beverages MNST , which fell nearly 11% after reporting earnings Thursday that missed Wall Street's expectations. The maker of energy drinks took a hit on international sales because of an unfavorable currency exchange rate, while also paying out big fees to terminate agreements with its distributors in preparation for a new distribution deal with Coca-Cola KO . Meanwhile Salesforce CRM , which had spiked 9% over the last two weeks on rumors that a big buyer—Microsoft MSFT has been heavily speculated—was prepping a takeover bid, declined almost 3% on reports that the rumors were false. Other laggards included mobile computing company Nvidia NVDA (down 7.4%), and healthcare technology firm Cerner CERN (down 4.5%). Both fell after lowering their revenue projections Thursday. Overall, Friday's market rally seemed healthy, despite investors' rising concern that stock valuations are reaching lofty heights. Both the Dow Jones Industrial Average, which rose 267 points to close at 18,191, and the S&P 500, which closed at 2,116, remained below their record highs. The same was true of Nasdaq, which added 58 point to close at 5,004. The fact that the gains were led by energy companies, which have been trading at depressed prices, while some high-flying stocks came back to earth. That points to a continuing run for this six-plus-year bull market because the moves brought those stocks closer to reasonable values. For more about investing, watch this Fortune video:
