Some may think that motivation is a matter of giving gifts or verbal praise. Some may even think that a raise is a way of motivating employees. While these things are important, there is much more to motivation. There are several ways to motivate an employee that is genuine and deserved. Giving an employee a pack on the back, or mentioning their achievements in a memo or letter are good ways to motivate. The key is to know your employees well enough to give them what they really want. It could be time off, a vacation, a raise or even just some praise. Ultimately, these kinds of things will result in a better quality of work from your employees as well as a better relationship between you and the employee. Not to mention a better ou

I never had any serious problems with the Pah-Wraith plot, myself, but even if you didn't like it...this has GOT to be one of the best vids I've seen as far as lyrical fit to what's on screen.

Rudy Gay has been the subject of many trade speculations recently, including some that linked him to the Celtics. It turns out that there might potentially be some substance to those. When it comes to luring players to Boston, you cannot say "Oh we have great weather, low tax rates and and awesome media scene." I mean you could, but that would be lying. Thus the Celtics are left with a professionally run organization (which means a lot if you look around), a player's coach and a great franchise player for whom the sky is still the limit. Of course he's going to pitch the idea to his friends, especially when they want to talk to him for advice. Whether it's close friend Rajon Rondo, Jarrett Jack, or other basketball colleagues, Memphis Grizzlies forward Rudy Gay has been leaning on his circle of NBA friends to get him through recent trade speculation. While Rondo, according to Gay, is giving sound advice, the Boston Celtics guard can't help being a little selfish. "It's hard to ta...

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 11/30/11
The Chicago Bears indicated they still have faith in their No. 2 quarterback despite a difficult performance last week. Their next opponent doesn't appear to feel the same way. While Chicago sticks with Caleb Hanie, the Kansas City Chiefs might start former Bear Kyle Orton over a struggling Tyler Palko on Sunday at Soldier Field. The Bears remain in position for a wild-card berth, but a 25-20 loss in Oakland last Sunday halted a five-game winning streak and left them as one of three NFC teams with a 7-4 record. To build a lead over the other contenders, Chicago could use some better games from Hanie. In his first start for the injured Jay Cutler and first action since last season's NFC title game, Hanie threw three interceptions in the first half but rebounded to go 10 of 18 in the fourth quarter for 175 of his 254 yards. He had two touchdown passes and ran for 50 yards, but also ended Chicago's final drive after being called for intentional grounding because he took a few steps ...

[WP 2.0.4, "default" theme]
I'm upgrading from 2.0.2 to 2.0.4. My #headerimg isn't scaling quite right -- it seems to be about 3px or so too wide on both the left and right margin. In other words, under 2.0.2 it scaled exactly to the right and left margin lines but under 2.0.4 it sticks out on both sides.
In 2.0.2 I added this following the #header definition in header.php:
#headerimg { margin: 7px 9px 0; height: 192px; width: 740px; }
#headerimg { background: url('<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/lijiang.jpg') no-repeat top;}
In 2.0.4, I just modified the #header definition in style.css:
background: #73a0c5 url('images/lijiang.jpg') no-repeat bottom center;
So, can anyone send some clue love my way? Thanks!

2. Microsoft Removes "Big Boobs" Coding Gaffe
The BBC reports that the hexadecimal string 0xB16B00B5 — which can apparently be read as "big boobs" — was found "lurking in code that helps a Microsoft program work with Linux open source software."
Observing that someone "was trying to be funny, I guess," developers who oversee the core, or kernal, of the Linux operating system detected the code. Microsoft responded swiftly and says that it has created a patch to replace the spelling of the string in an update:
Commenting on the gaffe, developer Dr Matthew Garrett noted that the first version of the Microsoft code used a similar string of 0x0B00B135 – a form of letters that roughly translates to "boobies".
"Puerile sniggering at breasts contributes to the continuing impression that software development is a boys' club where girls aren't welcome," Dr Garrett wrote.
A "huge debate" has ensued about "whether use of the string was sexist and how male developers should conduct themselves."
CNET's James Farrar says that the code is one reason for "dismally low minority and gender representation" in the tech industry. The detection of the code follows another embarrassing incident for Microsoft in June when "inappropriate and offensive elements and vulgar language" was used at a song and dance routine at the Azure Norwegian developer conference.
Women in top positions in the tech industry — not only Mayer but Hewlett-Packard's Meg Whitman and IBM's Virginia Rometty — may "represent the exception rather than the rule for women in tech."
Yes, we need to encourage more girls to study in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) fields. But we also need to keep on the pressure on those (mostly white males) in those fields to say, yes, great about Mayer. But real changes in tech culture and in conditions for women — and in attitudes towards women — are vital for Silicon Valley to "maintain its position as the global innovation engine, against competition with dozens of fast growing innovation centers around the world."

Thank you for sharing.
and explanatory text has been narrated was a great wide thanks to everyone who contributed
consistency Elbise Modelleri has been fully explained in the article is quite descriptive writing and sharing parts of your post I want to share all liked it very much thanks
Thank you, that your site is very nice touch topics that up until a date and I congratulate you for the labor of a successful site
Dear author, thanks for the article, also - nice find with that line in VM source code.
One small note: while part of C source code can definitely be called a string (i.e. several letters in a row), as far as C sources go those two are sequences of hex values. Specifically, in this case, those are something like constants. Constant is a value that is associated with some easy to use handle (like MAX_RETRY_ATTEMPTS = 10;). So the "humor" in this case probably is that some MS developer used this integer constant as ID for Linux guest (virtual machine). Why would it matter at all? This "big boobs string" is almost impossible to notice in a binary, contrary to viewing source code. Which means even a hacker reverse-engineering this executable file would most probably miss the hex sequence.
Mit W., if you follow the link in the article on BBC site there is a link to the source: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/13/154. As you can see there it's good old ANSI C, i.e. it's not just a bunch of bytes taken from PE.
I think if we look hard enough we can find derogatory evidence against women AND men ANYWHERE. I have an idea, LET'S STOP LOOKING and try to get along together. I'm fed up being classed as a trash male just because of a handful of idiot men and a certain class of women that look into everything as being sexist.
Give it up.

With the cluster loose, Dennis cut off the wires leading to the gauges, leaving enough length to connect the gauges to the new harness. One helpful tip: Use a piece of tape to mark what wires serve which gauge on the cluster, just in case you forget or get confused.
After pulling the cluster, we found this surprise. This is the kind of thing that leads to dead shorts in a wiring harness, or worse yet, fire.
Taking a break to rest his back, Dennis moved into the engine compartment. We pulled the hood off for easier access to the firewall. The wiring in the engine bay was a mess too, so it all needed to be removed for the new Painless wiring.
In an engine compartment, messy wiring not only creates fire dangers, but can be frustrating when your car has an electrical problem and you can't diagnose what's going wrong. If you add anything like an aftermarket ignition, or other engine accessories, you'll play hell trying to get them wired up correctly.
The fuse block in the Painless kit mounts in the same location as the stock unit, using this bracket. Two screws and it's ready to go.
Before mounting the fuse block, it's best to uncoil the whole wiring harness, and separate the wiring bundles for the dash, rear of the car, and engine compartment. To make things easy on yourself, route the engine wiring through the hole on the firewall before you mount the fuse block.
Here you can see the fuse block mounted, and wiring routed to the dash and engine. At this stage it's hard not to look at the massive amount of wiring and lose your head. Don't sweat it. This job looks a lot scarier than it really is. Your best tool for the install is going to be patience, and organization. Think of it as a jigsaw puzzle you're just starting. At first there are a lot of pieces, but once you get going things get easier.
This is what makes installing a Painless wiring harness painless. Each wire is marked for where it needs to go and hook up to. Unless you've forgotten how to read (or are a three-thumbed editorial director), it's nearly impossible to screw up.
The wiring for the back of the car uses the factory wiring channel for routing. To get to this, you have to remove the sill plate then peel back the carpeting. The channel cover is held on by a few screws. Before laying the new wiring, you'll probably need to vacuum out decade's worth of crud from the channel.
When the wiring comes out of the channel, it goes through this hole concealed behind the armrest.
To make routing the wiring easier, we wrapped some masking tape around the bundles. This is all the wiring for the trunk, including speaker wires. The Painless harness gives you wiring for other accessories that could be in the trunk/rear area, like trunk lights, CD changers, power antennas, etc. If you're not going to use those particular wires, you can cap them off and hide them under the trunk mat, in case you want to add anything later on.

As a starting pitcher Micah Owings is a decidedly unexciting proposition. Meanwhile he seems to have a lot more oomph working out of the pen. I don't know if his shoulder could sustain more frequent work, but it seems to me that Owings might be able to give the club a legitimate long reliever, a guy who can actually go 2+ IP. He could spare the rest of the pen from having to log a ton of innings and from getting used too early in the game. And you don't have to pinch hit for him.
That's my case for him, but let's poll this one. Anyone else think he's got a future as a long man?

When the MMA organization "Affliction" recently collapsed, fight fans were oozing out the mouth at the possibility of the UFC signing arguably the greatest fighter in the history of the sport, Fedor Emelianenko.
Whether you love or hate the UFC (and Dana White), there is no denying that the company has the best collection of fighters and would have offered "The Last Emperor" the best fights possible going in to the latter part of his career.
Instead, Strikeforce was able to net the Russian super star by caving into M-1's demands of co-promotion.
Now the UFC had reportedly offered Emelianenko a very lucrative contract in the vicinity of $5 million a fight, while also agreeing to give M-1 a share of the profits, but no co-promotion.
There are only three possible explanations I can think of for Fedor's displeasing move:
1) Emelianenko has an irrational fear of money.
2) He's ducking Lesnar and wants to end his career by beating relatively lesser opponents (Strikeforce's top attractions are Alistair Overeem, Fabricio Werdum, and Brett Rogers).
3) Fedor's manager, Vadim Finkelchtein, is secretly a mob boss who has threatened to break Fedor's legs if he ever leaves M-1.
I am definitely a fan of MMA, but in no way, shape or form would I call myself an expert on the sport. Despite that, even I can see how bad of a move this was for MMA as a whole.
Fedor Emelianenko had a chance to make an insane amount of money, become permanently cemented as an International super star and end his career with exciting, crowd-pleasing fights against the likes of Brock Lesnar, Randy Couture, Gabriel Gonzaga, Mirko Cro Crop (probably would have finished him this time around), and others.
C'mon Fedor, why are you clowning yourself, man?

I loooooved itReply
Ummm…i dont even wanna start.Reply
You give that lesbian a smackdown!Reply
I am speechless at the callousness of this advice — that poor little boy!! First his mother hands him off to a stranger, and then the stranger, who is also a mother, is supposed to ignore his discomfort because her own child is experiencing normal emotion? YOUR child is safe and secure with her mother. That little boy is among new people who probably scare him, including an adult who he should be able to trust to look out for him. This answer is HALF-right. The thing to say is, "I'm sure it's hard to have a strange person here. I'm sure he misses his mom, too. Don't worry, I'm staying with you, but let's be nice to him until he can go to HIS Mommy." It is of course possible to both show your child unconditional love and establish that demonstrating empathy is important to you. Your example means such a great deal. Even if your child is not ready to demonstrate empathy, watching you demonstrate it is terribly important.Reply

Does your libido diminish the older you get?
I think any libido needs to be fed! To me the degree of intensity seems to relate to my mind and the direction my thoughts go. I think men need a good libido for prostate health, if nothing more, as we age. I also think a person can talk or rationalize out of most any thought pattern. We tend to give in to narcissistic behavior... (who doesn't like pleasure!) so, I certainly do.
It always scared me to think my libido could decrease with age.
Fortunately it is not happening. I am in menopause and pleasantly surprised to see how my sex driving keeps growing.
nope, it increases:
As I gain more experience to stimulate my imagination it frees us from the inhibitions of our younger years. We are more diverse in what we desire and what we have to give the other person.
I find myself more trusting of an experienced mate than I was 20 years ago.
At 43, my libido is high, especially since being put on hormone replacement therapy after my hysterectomy. I'm having less sex than I did when I was in my twenties and thirties. But it is much more intense and much more satisfying now than ever.
I thought my libido was high when I was younger but it was intimacy and love I craved more than sex. I just didn't know it at the time. Now I receive love and intimacy from my lovers so my craving is for the amazing physical and emotional sex we have.
66 and going strong. The sexual urges are very frequent and regular...I dream of multiple partners.
Alas, I have only one.
This is a tough one. Contrary to popular belief, men are generally turned on more by intimacy than just pure sex. If we have a sense of comraderie with our sex partner (or potential sex partner), a shared idea that we both want the same thing and that there is that feeling of "connection", then sustainable and regular sex is no problem. I believe the contention that libido is all in the brain, and has less to do with your physiology or age.
My sex drive with my wife dropped to zero - I even started getting symptoms of erectile/ejaculatory dysfunction at one point. Purely because our "intimate" relationship went dead over the course of our long marriage. A man simply cannot be intimate with his woman if she runs him down all the time. I just couldn't connect with her any more on any type of level after a lifetime of constant criticism, and that obviously translated into my diminished sexual desire for her.
But I have always remained horny as hell as far as other women were concerned. I now know there's nothing wrong with my libido - I'll fuck myself into oblivion if I had enough opportunity. Sadly I don't.
The older I get, the hornier I get. It takes less to get me turned on and my O's are much stronger. Not that I'm complaining...
My sex drive has gotten more intense as I get older. I may not come as many times in a session as I used to, but the orgasms themselves are much much better than when I was younger. No comparison.
My libido seems to be increasing with age. Perhaps it's all in my head (no pun here). In any case, my wife, as much as I love her, was never very sexually driven. In the decades that we've bee married, there was only one incident of her initiating intercourse. Yes, you've probably guessed it... Her internal clock was ticking and she was desperate to get pregnant.
In any case, we only have intercourse 2-3 times a month. If I do not initiate sex, we would never have it. This is something that has been weighing heavily on me as I feel like I am being deprived of one of the most sensational feelings that a human can experience. This is the main reason I read these forums... It's an escape and a true blessing for me.
Sad to say, I am in my early 60's. My desire has not dropped but my drive isn't what it used to be. I want sex as much as I have always have but now I just don't seem to have the "push" to convince my partner to enjoy it like I do. I want so much to have sex at least twice a week but I no longer have the ability to give my old masterful perfomance that my partner came to expect. Short answer, the libido is there just a little slow in starting.
All you need to do is change your mindset a bit...
Don't worry so much about the ejaculation. Once you get an erection, it can last a LONG time!
Not necessarily but the ability to have a good erection and ejaculation definitely declines. Old age is a bummer.
Oddly enough one of my biggest fears is that Doc would loose his sex drive. He is about your age tootall. I read this thread as often as it pops up for the simple reason of that it is a fear of mine. There is a slighty greater than a ten year diffrence between Doc and I so I try to read and get information from others as to what I might expect.
Our relationship is NOT based on sex by any means, and even if Doc could never get a woody again that would never change my feelings or love for him. You always hear of these little old men in nursing homes or wherever trying to cop a feel or constantly jerking off, or what have you, so I just always assumed that men were always horny no matter what their age. After all, Tony Randal fathered a kid when he was like 82 or something like that. Needless to say, I was utterly shocked when I first opened this thread and read that some men have a decrease in their libido, truely shocked!
As far as precum in concerned, well Doc is very drippy, which I absolutely love and is a huge turn on for me, not to mention it's quite deliicious, lol. We have been together five and a half years now and I have not noticed any change as far as that is concerned either.
I don't know what is normal and what is not as far as this stuff goes. I know that as a general rule men hit their sexual peaks starting at about 18 and women usually in their mid to late 30's. I was no exception to that either. After a 13 year drought and at the age of 37 I came out of it very very thirsty, lol. I met Doc when I was 38, he gave me my first drink and well, I can't seem to get enough to drink, I always am starving of thirst and can never ever seem to get enough of him.
I hope I never stop being this horny and I hope he doesn't either. It's fantastic to be horny all the time, not so fantastic though when I can't see him to do something about it I have to admit.
Yea at age 53 things have changed. one thing i have noticed that bothers me is the decrease in precum. I can mess with myself for a while and no drios, makes me sad. Alwayes like to taste it
I totally agree with Nutcase. My libido hasn't diminished since menopause but there certainly have been other physical symptoms like dryness and a tendency to develop UTI. My urologist recommended a vaginal estrogen cream and my gynecologist heartily endorsed the idea. I had the choice between Premarin and Estrace. I chose Estrace on ethical grounds and because it's bio identical. I've been using it for about a year and the difference is quite startling. Talk to your doc, Nana.
Nana, see your gyn about getting one of the vaginal estrogen creams available. Wife is on the back side of menopause and was experiencing symptoms similar to what you describe. She has used Premarin and Estrace-both work quite well. She is no longer dry and enjoys sexual activities again. Two suggestions: let your partner insert the cream and don't be afraid to use additional lube.
i have to say my libido has not diminished with age, i have just reached sixty. i still get strong erections all the time, i still leak a huge amount of precum, but i will say that my ejaculation is maybe down a little.
I am going thru menopause and have noticed a drop in my libido-seems as if getting to sleep is more impotant than sex and I am having trouble with natural lubrication as it is dry and hurts now trying to have intercourse.We have lube but I keep trying not to use it hoping each time it's not needed and then it is. :-(( I didn't think it would affect me but it has.
the biggest sex organ that a man has is not between his legs ... but between his ears. Brilliant ! that put a smile on my face because I know it's true. I'm in my 50's and don't have a problem with erections ... yet, I hope it don't change as I get older.
My libido has not decreased with age. I still have virtually the same sex urges as when I was younger. However, the physical capabilities have diminished considerably. The line from Little Feet's "Old Folks Boogey" says it all: "Your mind makes a promise that your body can't keep". Fortunately, there is medication that circumvents-but not overcomes-the aging process and allows physical pleasures to continue.
My sex drive is through the roof !! Ever since I hit my 30s ( and divorced my ex husband before that), I have had multiple Orgasms and amazing
Lovers/Boyfriends/Doms. I am in my late 40s, and my last Dom/Lover was 53. He did NOT need any "pills", btw, and we could go all night with
various breaks and um..fun activities, hehe. I have had Orgasms that have lasted 10-15 minutes with the right man. It's not a myth, it's true!!
(I was in a very unhappy unhealthy marriage when I was much younger, and the sex was good at first, but he was a selfish lover, unfaithful, and remains
an alcoholic to this day. He went to rehab for the 15th time, according to my grown children. I can guarantee that his sex life must be terrible due to
excessive alcohol, drugs, and cigarettes.) I am open minded, healthy, happy, confident, and comfortble in my own skin. I masturbate every day, sometimes more. The more sex I have, the more I want. I should say, the more kinky sex I have, the more I want. I don't have any sort of type of man in mind, and I have been known to be a Cougar and date younger men, or men closer to my own age, or just a bit older. The key is to find the right partner that you share intense chemistry with, trust and respect, and have a playful friendship with. Then, the sky is the limit as far as being sexually adventurous and trying new things without felling guilty about various fetishes and kinks. I try to switch at times, and adore and cherish my Lover, and cater to his needs and fetishes, just as he cherishes me and wishes to please me just as much. I do draw the line at scat, severe pain, anything creepy or illegal, etc.
And the key to amazing sex? HOT passionate kissing and just enjoying and pleasing each other. Slow down and get completely lost in your partner!!!
*swoon* ;-) I will say that just because a man cannot have an erection does NOT mean he can't use his hands, mouth, and toys to make his woman feel great !! Be creative and don't put so much pressure on performance!! There is nothing wrong with a man wearing a strap on to please his wife, btw. Just food for thought.
Libido at 93,you can look forward to no erection or orgasm. Up to now it was fun all the time, with women and the enema bag. The good part it still feels good down there, just seeing a full red enema bag and taking all slowly the the most pleasure and little pain. If your like me thats what you can look forward to.
it does if you have a lot of stress in your life, say what you want but sex is good for your health, its one of our primary functions, if we werent meant to have sex a lot, it wouldnt feel so damn good xD so if you have so much stress that sex is waaay down on your priority list, your libido will decrease with time.
It was like she was describing my life almost word for word... My husband and I started going through this about 4 years into our marriage though, and it's been this way for the last 5 years. Sometimes it's really difficult to find a reason to stay married because we live more like roommates than like husband and wife.
He has been to the doctor, had the blood test, and they gave him a low dose test cream. Then they doubled the Rx Cream.... Then they tripled the Rx cream and none of it helped, but they completely refused to offer him the shots. He is only 36 right now. This started when he was around 28, and lost complete ability to have sex since he was 34. It's very frustrating to live this way and it damages one's self esteem on both sides of the marriage.
No. it's getting better. and it takes longer to get an orgasm. I like that!
Only 50?!?
I got married 4 days after my 60th birthday, and my wife still makes me feel like a teenager! :-)
Not with me. I am approaching 50 and I find that I require more sex now than when I was in my twenties. Being older, and wiser, I find that I am enjoying it more now.
I think that all of us have some decine in hormone production as we age, but any sudden loss of libido may signify a drastic drop in testosterone and certainly is worth having it checked by a physician. On the other hand, people who remain physically active as they age should, with proper diets, maintain a healthy libido. There are a number of foods and over-the-counter remedies that counter some loss of libido, but there are a number of serious diseases that can also trigger the loss of libido and merit a thorough check-up by a physician.
It's also wise, as was noted below, to understand the effects of medications on libido.
I think its a combination of age and meds. Im like you Sgt_Pear_Bottom.

"I was not born a gangster, but I will die one. This is not a choice, but it's because of my circumstances. I want to change, but I can't. I do not know what to change to and how," says gangster.
Kenana (not his real name) is 23. He never went to high school.
"I was born to be poor, to suffer, and not be successful in life. There is no one in my family that is a success or went to school and finished grade 12," says Kenana.
He told GroundUp he had to take care of his five siblings while his mother was drunk every day.
"When I was doing grade four I had to go to school without food. I would come home and my mother would be sleeping on the floor, drunk, and my brothers and sisters would go to the neighbours to beg for food."
His father left his unemployed mother when he was 12 and the family struggled after that.
"After my father left, my mother dated another man and got four more kids. I hate my father because it is because of him that we are struggling. I see the man every day and he didn't take care of us. We had to beg other people for food and money to survive," he says.
When he was growing up he wanted to own a business and put his siblings through school.
"My mother is an alcoholic, she doesn't work, and my siblings depend on government grants for survival. I depend on my gang life."
"I am not proud of my lifestyle, but I hurt other people so that I can put food on the table. My brother died last year, because he was also in a gang, and that is how males in my family have to survive."
His brother was beaten to death by a mob after he stole a computer and sold it.
But Kenana's mother says, "I did not make a mistake by giving birth to him. And if he blames me for his suffering then that is his problem. He chose to be in a gang."
"When he was growing up I sent him and his brother to a foster home but they came back claiming they missed their siblings and they were abused at the home. I welcomed them back not knowing they will later become gangsters," she said.
Kenana has never been convicted. He claims to have killed and robbed people and that the community is scared of him.
"I belong to the Vura gang in Nyanga. I am the leader in my group. There were 20 of us, but now we are only 16. The others died due to the fighting [gang war] ... One was beaten to death by the community," says Kenana.
"My mother had to move out of her house because of my gang activities. She didn't feel safe so she built a shack not far from the house so that the children will be safe."
"My home is currently a hiding place. My gang members stay there. We plan our activities from there, and later we sleep in the house to keep each other safe," he says.
Kenana's home has broken windows and doors. A few months ago, a rival gang came to the house and started shooting. He managed to escape using a back door. His home is full of bullet holes.
What they call the safe house is very dark. There is no electricity. There is one old chair in the front room and a sponge in the bedroom with cardboard. There are dusty plates and dirty cutlery. The roof of the house has a hole. They go up to the roof to hide when they are attacked.
Kenana's sister, who is 14, doesn't visit the house because she is scared she might be harmed. His four-year-old brother goes to the house almost every day to visit the gang and sit with them.
When GroundUp visited the house there were six men smoking weed and tik. One man was playing with a gun; he claimed it did not have bullets.
"I use this to scare people when I rob them," he said.
Last month, Kenana and his gang robbed a man at an ATM. But the man took out a gun and shot at them. Kenana was hit in both legs and hospitalized for weeks.
"I do not think my life will change right now. The only way to leave this gang life is by death. If I leave, where am I going to go? Who will assist me in life? I have a family, but they are not useful to me.
"What kills me is the fact that my younger brother will also become like me ... and rob people for a living. My mother knows I blame her for this suffering and if my father did not have other children I would have killed him. But I do not want his children to grow up without a father like me ... I live for the moment, I do not plan my future because there is no future to plan. I might die any moment."

American-Israeli journalist Simon Ostrovsky has been released by pro-Russian separatists from Ukraine.
"Vice News is delighted to confirm that our colleague and friend Simon Ostrovsky has been safely released and is in good health. We would like to thank everyone for their support during this difficult time. Out of respect for Simon and his family's privacy, we have no further statement at this time," Vice News announced on its website Thursday.
Ostrovsky told the Associated Press that he was freed and heading to the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk.
Vyacheslav Ponomaryov, the separatist head of the eastern Ukrainian town of Sloviansk, told reporters on Wednesday evening that Ostrovsky had been detained since Tuesday for reporting false information, Reuters reported. Ponomaryov has appointed himself "mayor" of the town.
Ostrovsky has been covering the conflict in Ukraine in recent months for the Vice News website.
Separatist gunmen detained Ostrovsky on Monday night along with four other reporters who since have been released. He reportedly was one of 16 people kidnapped in Sloviansk over the past two weeks.
Ukraine has seen violent clashes between pro-Russian protesters and other groups since the ousting in February of the government of President Viktor Yanukovych in a revolution that erupted over his perceived pro-Russian policies. Ukraine's interim government has announced new elections scheduled for next month.

On the season Andrea Bargnani has given you this so far: 16 ppg/4.3 rpg/1.4 apg/.398 FG/.828 FT/.7 bpg/.6 spg/1.4 3pm and a few kicks in your ass. Wait, what? I didn't mean to say that last part, I blame my fingers, they are out of control. Honestly, I really can't control my fingers sometimes, it's anarchy! Last night our buddy Andrea went down and out with a left belbow injury, or elbow if you want to be all technical about it. X-rays were negative and he's day to day so maybe he'll miss a game or three, maybe not. If he does, go ahead and grab yourself some Ed Davis so you can be disappointed. Or maybe grab somes Amir Johnson, he'll disappoint you too but at least he'll disappoint you while not killing your FG, said Bargnani! I also expect Jonas Valanciunas to breath some new life so go ahead and grab him ahead of the other two if Andrea is to miss any time. Anyway, back in October after I had Andrea ranked number 19 in my Top 25 Power Forwards for 2012 post, a reader (thanks for...

According to a recent study, Alaska is either in a recession or on the brink of one. It's time for non-partisan solutions, not playing Russian Roulette with the economy.
Alaska will lose 4,000 jobs statewide by September. Blocking a vote on a Medicaid Expansion bill that's passed in Democratic and Republican states, and which would create 4,000 Alaska jobs, isn't smart politics. The public supports Medicaid expansion across party lines, but Republican legislative leaders decided to block this bill from House and Senate floor votes during 140 days of regular and special sessions.
This legislative session should be over. Instead, it continued past its 90-day deadline and Gov. Bill Walker rightly called a 30-day extension. Then, the Republican-led majority voted for a break from work. That's why legislators aren't in Juneau doing the public's business.
I and other Democrats voted to keep working and to reverse parts of a budget that treats oil companies better than children and seniors. We can do better than cut educational opportunity and public education.
Gov. Bill Walker, like other Republican and Democratic governors who have hopped on board, is right that accepting Medicaid expansion will save Alaska money and cut our budget deficit. Turning away an opportunity to get ill people medical care, and cut the budget at the same time would be a wasted opportunity.
It's interesting how $12 million in oil company ads don't mention what you need to know.
All oil fields in place after 2003 and all future fields pay us a negative or near-zero value for Alaska's oil under SB21's production tax. That's in the Scott Goldsmith report, and that part has been hidden in TV ads for too long.
We can't move education forward with the governor's four-year string of teacher and educator cuts. He and his party cut schools last year; he's proposing cutting 200-300 more next year, and we've lost over 600 since 2011. That's blurry vision on education. It flows from an oil giveaway that puts the state into annual $1 billion-$2 billion deficits as far as the eye can see.
With $2 billion less in oil revenue this year — and continuing deficits are far as one can see (the new GOP oil law is won't allow surpluses in the near or long term) — now is not the time to build a vastly expanded Office Building for Anchorage legislators.
While Rep. Hawker (R-Anchorage) had his reasons, I think this decision failed to prioritize spending when we are facing massive deficits. Under current rules which should be reviewed, Rep. Hawker signed this office expansion contract without a legislative vote.
College and job training should be affordable to all, not just those who have money. When Alaska charges nearly double what the federal government charges for student loans — to those who want to better themselves through college or job training — that needs to be fixed. This summer, a dysfunctional Congress reached a bipartisan deal that sets loan rates at 3.8 percent, at a time Alaskans pay 7.3 percent (with small potential discounts worth a portion of a percentage point).
No company would give away billions of dollars to a business partner and say it's OK if it gets little in return. But that's what the state did under the massive Alaska oil revenue rollback it passed. That should be reversed and re-written to protect Alaska's interests in our oil.
Here are some facts left out of industry ads, and off placards held by the paid "protesters" whom political insider Art Hackney has hired to stand between you and the mostly volunteer referendum signature gatherers.
Just days after his $1 billion-plus oil revenue rollback passed, the Governor, oil companies and their allies began to crank up their PR machine. They're spinning their bill, SB 21, as the reason for development that, um, started years ago under ACES, the law SB 21 just replaced. Soon they'll be touting SB 21 as the reason for other "new" things, like radio and space travel.
Here's some reality about these projects.
Care much about the decline of Alaska's king salmon and halibut? I do. You do, and protecting Alaska's fish and clean water is why you voted in 2006 for strict water quality standards to prevent cruise ship companies from dumping poorly treated, damaging copper and by products from human waste — 20,000 gallons of inadequately treated discharge at a time — into our fishing waters. Unfortunately the Governor and GOP-led House passed a bill last week to weaken this voter initiative.

Morse theory for the Yang-Mills functional via equivariant homotopy theory
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: In this paper we show the existence of non-minimal critical points of the Yang-Mills functional over a certain family of 4-manifolds with generic -invariant metrics using Morse and homotopy theoretic methods. These manifolds are acted on fixed point freely by the Lie group with quotient a compact Riemann surface of even genus. We use a version of invariant Morse theory for the Yang-Mills functional used by Parker in A Morse theory for equivariant Yang-Mills, Duke Math. J. 66-2 (1992), 337-356 and Råde in Compactness theorems for invariant connections, submitted for publication.

Disclosed is a method for efficiently creating a compressed PDF file containing multiple composite graphics pages, each of which is composed of a base page and zero or more overlaid and clipped PDF pages, wherein the pages and the graphic elements of each page are stored in static PDF files.
1. A method for creating a compressed PDF file containing one or more composite PDF pages comprising the steps of:
parsing a description of each of said composite pages and storing said parsed description;
opening one or more input PDF files and uniquely identifying Cos objects used by PDF pages defined by PDF content streams within said one or more input PDF files;
copying said Cos objects required by said composite pages to an output file, and eliminating duplicate Cos objects, such that each unique Cos object is copied to said output file only once;
creating a PDF content stream for said one or more composite graphic pages, based on said stored description, which includes references to said Cos objects in said output file; and

This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/253,812, filed on Nov. 29, 2000.
This invention relates to the use of Adobe� Acrobat� PDF files, and, in particular, discloses a method for creating a compressed form of Adobe� Acrobat� PDF containing composite PDF pages.
The Adobe� company's Acrobat� line of products is designed to allow the creation and viewing of documents in a platform-independent manner. Files can be created or converted to Adobe� Acrobat� Portable Document Format (PDF), which is an open de facto standard for electronic document distribution. PDF is a universal file format that preserves all the fonts, formatting, graphics, and color of the source document, regardless of the application and platform used to create it. Adobe PDF files can be shared, viewed, navigated, and printed exactly as intended. The PDF format and the line of Acrobat� products provides platform transportability for documents.
Each PDF file can describe multiple pages of content. Within each PDF file, the pages are represented in a database having the form of a tree-structure. Each PDF page is accessible from the well-defined root of the tree-structure using a known traversal algorithm. The graphic content of each page, in the form of Cos objects, is represented by one or more terminal nodes in the structure.
In the publishing industry, it is useful to be able to produce composite pages which consist of multiple component graphic objects. It is not uncommon for some of the graphic objects to be variable in nature, such as, for example, the addressee on a form letter. It is also useful and convenient for the component graphic objects to be stored as static PDF files.
Traditionally this process has been accomplished by RIPing (sending through a Raster Image Processor) each PDF file and using assembling hardware and/or software to overlay the raster images of each component to create a composite page. This construction is driven by a static, descriptive language, called a compositing language, that defines the appearance of each page in terms of component pages.
Because the RIP process can be computationally and time intensive, a technique is needed to organize a PDF file so that 1) multiple RIPs can be efficiently and simultaneously used to rasterize the file and 2) component PDF files that are used multiple times, i.e., composited more that once onto a single page or different pages, can share a single pass through the RIP and/or rasterization process.
A technique for creating a compressed form of Adobe� Acrobat� PDF from a stream of variable page descriptions and static PDF files is disclosed. The resulting compressed files are compatible with the Adobe� Acrobat� line of products. The technique includes a symmetrical compression/decompression process yielding a file in which composite pages and their components can be efficiently and directly accessed.
The following process describes the construction of multiple component static PDF files into a composite, compressed file which is compatible with the Adobe� Acrobat� line of products. Several assumptions are made regarding the static PDF source files. First, each component PDF page in a static source PDF file is modified at most by one clipping function and a single 2-dimensional matrix transformation (CTM or Current Transformation Matrix). The clipping function describes an area of the page which is to be eliminated from the composite (i.e., a hole in the page) such that other pages underlying the clipped page can show through. The matrix transformation is a mathematical function that rotates, scales or offsets an object. Second, each static PDF file has a contents array containing references to PDF commands and a resources dictionary that identifies all resources used on the page.
The process that describes the construction of each composite page is defined by a compositing language, several of which are well known in the art. Some examples include ASCII text, pdfExpress script, PPML and the Barco Book Ticket Language. Using one of these languages, each resulting composite page is described separately. Within the description of each composite page, every placement of a PDF page from a static PDF file is defined by its own CTM and clipping function. Further, on each composite page, the placement of a static page, using the clipping function and the CTM, overlays any prior marks caused by previous placements on the composite page. Using the compositing language, the composite page description can be parsed efficiently into a single, random access data structure representing the entire assembly process. The compositing language may also support other features, such as the substitution of text or images.
The compressed output composite PDF file is first defined by a sequence of operations, based on the compositing language, which are recorded for later analysis. The recording of the operations allows an analysis and optimization step to occur prior to the creation of the output file. The compression is a two-phased operation. In the first phase, components of the input PDF files needed in the composited output are analyzed. These components may need to be modified in some manner. In the second phase the components are copied, and any necessary modifications are applied.
Prior to the analysis, a sequence of operations that select and place PDF pages from existing static PDF files into new pages in the output PDF file is recorded in a data structure. Each new composite PDF page is defined by the following:
In phase I of the analysis, each input static PDF file is opened and the PDF pages within the files are located, using the root and tree-structure. For each page, the PDF resources (Cos objects) that are used on that page are identified and assigned a unique name. A resource lookup table is created to associate the unique name with the original name of the resource. Resources shared across two or more PDF pages are tracked separately for each page that references them. Next, the PDF content stream for each page is examined to determine all points where a PDF operator references a resource. The information required to modify the reference to the resource is stored. Lastly, certain information about the PDF component parts (i.e., PDF Cos objects and PDF content streams) of each page is stored in a second table associated with each PDF file and each page. This table defines a set of modifications to the input PDF files that allow the contents of the files to be used in the next phase.
In phase II, the output file is constructed. First, an output file usage table is created which has an entry for each PDF component part (i.e., PDF content stream or PDF Cos object). Initially, all entries are set to FALSE, indicating that the component has not been copied to the output file. Next, the recorded operations are sequentially processed. When a reference to a particular PDF page is encountered within the recorded operations, the output file usage table is tested for each component part of the page. If a FALSE entry is encountered, the component part is copied to the output file and the table is set to TRUE. Conversely, if a TRUE entry is encountered, no copying is performed. The effect is to copy each PDF component part to the output file only one time. The copied PDF components are shown in
For each new output page, a new PDF content stream is created to represent the page. Preferably, the new content stream is constructed as a Cos array type object (Contents Array), but other representations are possible. In the output file, a static block of storage is allocated for each new output page. This is shown in
For each static PDF page to be composited onto a new output page, the following occurs: A PDF stream consisting of commands which terminate and initiate graphic isolation, transform and crop the static PDF page, and identify the page is constructed. The page identification consists of the following information: a platform independent path and file name, the original page number, the total number of pages in the original file, a unique checksum dependent on the content streams representing the page, the clipping function, the CTM, and the number of times this file/page combination is used (defined as use count). This stream is converted to a Cos object and inserted in the next available Contents Array slot. The Contents Array elements for the page are then copied into the array and the next available slot is advanced to the first available slot after the copied contents. Finally, as shown in
In alternative embodiments, un-referenced static PDF pages and un-used Cos objects, as well as the text of the original compositing language, may be stored in the PDF files as storage blocks for purposes of reconstruction if the file is to be decompressed.
The compressed file can be decompressed in a reverse process. The compressed composite PDF is opened and a traversal of all of the Contents Array for each of the composite PDF pages in the file, as well as the list of unused static PDF pages is completed. All references to the original, static PDF pages are collected and sorted by file name and page number, and duplicate entries are removed. During the traversal a compositing language stream is constructed based on the file names, page numbers, CTMs, clipping functions and composite page structure. This language duplicates the original used to construct the file. Alternatively, the original language could be extracted if stored as described above.
The list is processed by file name. The PDF files are constructed using the page components identified in the traversal described above.
Random access to page information is driven by the PDF page structure. For a given page, the PDF page structure is traversed to locate the page. This yields approximately Log(n) performance for accessing pages (where n is the number of pages) because the PDF Page structure acts as a database-style index to the given pages.
Because the PDF file represents the entire set of knowledge required for a complete, set-theoretic job decomposition of itself, the RIPing process can make a complete, static analysis of the file. This static analysis can be used to efficiently process the file, and the process can be optimized based on the particular production environment (i.e., output device).
It can be seen that various modifications could be made to the above-described process without deviating from the spirit or scope of the invention, which is embodied in the claims below. For example, the content copying pass and page construction pass could be combined into a single pass.

The many ways visitors access web sites, via mobile devices, tablets, and desktops, now requires sites to incorporate responsive design elements that adapt to different screen sizes and browsers. In this course, Morten Rand-Hendriksen demonstrates design strategies, best practices, and actual code examples for creating a responsive web site. The course covers layout, navigation, responsive video embedding, and content sliders. The final chapter shows how to create an index page with jQuery Masonry, a jQuery plugin that helps you create dynamic grid layouts.
Once you've made the main content responsive, you have to make sure that the images also respond to the size of the screen or window; otherwise, you get a weird effect where the image starts spilling out over the edges. You can see it here, when I start resizing this window, that the image literally spills out over the edge, and if I go down further, you'll see that we start cropping the image with the edge of the window. That is not an ideal situation, and we need to fix it. But there's an added challenge. In WordPress, the author can insert images in many different ways.
From the top here, you see the first image is inserted with a style called None, which means it just flows with the rest of the content. Below that, we have an image aligned to the left, we have one aligned to the center, and we have aligned to the right, and finally, we have an image that has a caption on it, and we need to account for all of these when we create image styles. Fortunately, there's a relatively easy way of making images responsive. What you have to do is tell the browser to set the width of the image to 100% of the containing box.
So in this case the containing box for the image is the container that contains all the content here. We can see it here; it would be the entry-content. So the ideal situation would be that as the window is resized, the image is scaled to fit within that container. To do that, we are going to use a style code called max-width. So I'll go into my style sheet, and I'll find the Image section, and first, I am simply going to apply a style that applies all images. So I'll just say image and I'll set max-width to 100%.
That means the image, at the biggest, will be 100% of the containing container. And then I'll also set height to auto. By setting height to auto, I am telling the browser to automatically resize the height of the image to match in proportion to the width, so that the image doesn't get stretched and start looking weird. When I save this and reload my browser, you'll see, at full resolution it makes no difference, but as we scale the window down, you'll notice that the images now scale along with the rest of the content.
That is, with one exception. If we scroll down to the bottom, you'll see that my caption image still stays the same size, and we're still covering it. And that's what I was talking about. In WordPress we have to account for many different scenarios. So what we need to do here is add in some specific styles that capture all of these different scenarios. If you go to the code snippets file for this course, you'll find that entire stack of code here, at the very top, under 07.02. If you copy that out and paste it in and place it with this simple image call and save it, you'll see that now everything sizes, including the captioned image.
If we go back and look at the code, you see it's still the same code, max-width: 100%, height: auto, and it even has an explanation here of what's going on. And what we're doing is simply applying the style to specific types of images. Size-auto, size-full, size-large, size-medium, these are all the standard sizes in WordPress. We also assign it to the attachment images, which is a different page that you can look at images. We assign it to images in sidebars and we assign it to images with captions.
Before we finish up completely with images, I also want to account for certain specific scenarios where images are handled differently inside WordPress. So I've created another set of style code here that I can copy out from the code_snippets file and paste in, and this applies specifically to images that are aligned to the center and also to captioned images that are aligned to the center. What this style does is it sets the margin to auto on left and right so that the image truly aligns in the center, and also sets a bottom margin to create some extra space.
Again, we're setting the max width to 100% and height to auto, so this is just a custom style specifically for these two scenarios. Save that, open it in the browser, and you now have a set of fully responsive images in your site. When building WordPress themes, it's important to cover all eventualities. By targeting each image insertion scenario, you end up with responsive images no matter where and how they are inserted.

The only spinning I'm doing is trying to get my wide-ass Hacked Beemer down my driveway. I made a poor decision Wednesday to leave my 1/8 mile driveway as is. It all froze and the Princess just couldn't get any traction. I couldn't even use reverse to get her back in the garage. I had to push her back from the front old school style. Back up plan was to jump in the truck 1/2 ATGATT and drive in. Halfway down the driveway i realized my parking pass and badge were on the bike. 4WD Frontier was unable to reverse the whole way back on the driveway. I had to utilize my last mode of transportation, my feet, to get the pass and badge. Of course 12 hours later the driveway is clear and bone dry... AND, this is the same storm that had my hacked KLR pulled home at the end of a tow strap by two gun toting rednecks in a pickup truck. Just not my week.

The Horde Wars - Ravenous By Sherri L King Book 1 in the series The Horde Wars In a small Southern town where everyone knows everybody else's business, Cady Swann has managed to keep a few secrets to herself...among them, the fact that every night for the past fifteen years she's been protecting the town-probably the world-from a monstrous invasion of nether-worldly beasts. Unfortunately for Cady, someone has discovered her secret. Someone-or something-not quite human. Obsidian is a warrior, proud and fierce. He wants Cady to join his army in the war against their common foe. He also wants her to join him in his bed, to tempt and delight her into tying her life to his and leaving her world behind...forever.
