After all the hype prompted by the success of Avatar in cinemas and the flood of 3D technology unveiled at trade shows like CES 2010, 3D TV is finally becoming a reality in living rooms. All the major players are well and truly on the 3D bandwagon and they're set to make a lot of noise to try and entice consumers on board too. To help you navigate the 3D waters as various companies spruik their particular brand of 3D technology we've taken a look at what's on offer, when it will hit shelves and how much it will cost.

Sanyo Eneloop bike up close and personal at CES 2010
By Gizmag Team - January 9, 2010 1 Picture
We met with Sanyo's David Cabanban Sanyo at CES 2010 and he was kind enough to speak to us about the recent Sanyo-Panasonic alliance as well as Sanyo's new solar panel that is translucent, allowing it to capture solar energy not only from on top of the panel, but also from light reflected off the ground. David also took us through the finer points of the eneloop bike we first spied in December 2008 and we jumped aboard for a test ride. The bike features impressive power-assisted technology that amplifies the rider's pedaling, making cycling up hills or at speeds of up to 15mph that much easier. Read More

Bandvagn 202
Bandvagn 202 (Bv 202) is a tracked articulated, all-terrain vehicle developed by Bolinder-Munktell, a subsidiary of Volvo, for the Swedish Army.
The vehicle is formed of two rubber Kegresse track units with a multi-directional pivot in between. The front unit contains the engine and gearbox through which power is delivered to the front and, via a propshaft in the pivot mechanism, the rear tracks. A hydraulic ram on the pivot "bends" the vehicle in the middle to steer it - there is no braking of track units for steering as on conventional tracklaying vehicles. The controls are a conventional steering wheel on the left hand front of the vehicle.
Speed on land 35 km/h, speed on water 7 km/h
The Bv 202 carries driver and commander in the front unit and 8–10 troops in the trailer unit. It can be adapted for other, different, applications.
Production started in Arvika in 1964 and ended in 1981. The Bv 202 has since been succeeded by the Hägglunds Bandvagn 206.
The Bv 202 was designed to transport troops and equipment through snow or boglands in the northern parts of Sweden. The last Swedish units to use this vehicle was the Cavalry, who found that the manual gearbox Bv 202 was much quieter than the automatic transmission Bv 206.
The Mk1 Bv 202 is powered by a 82.5 bhp (61.5 kW) Volvo B18, the MK2 by the 97 bhp (72 kW) B20. It has less ground pressure than a skier and is fully amphibious.
The Bv 202 was used by NATO forces, and replaced the older Swedish Snow Trac ST4 Over-snow Vehicle which was employed by the British Royal Marines under NATO.
- Canada
- Czechoslovakia 1
- Finland - replaced by Bv 206 and Sisu Nasu
- Netherlands
- Norway
- Sweden - replaced by Bv 206
- United Kingdom - replaced "ST4 Snow Trac Over-snow Vehicle" and subsequently replaced by Bv 206

WUMPA - my DMC Dauntless 1150GS Adventure rig
View Single Post
Dog Chauffeur
Joined: Oct 2007
Location: Tacoma, WA-ish
Oddometer: 4,089
Got some pics of my luggage to share.
First is my Bags-Connection "GS" tankbag. It mounts to the gas cap ring--it doesn't touch or rub on the tank anywhere, and has a rigid base. There's a GPS mount for my Zumo, and a waterproof port if you're one of those guys who want power inside the bag for accessories. When you need gas, there is a pull tab at the front of the bag that releases the locking mechanism. To mount it, just place it onto the locking ring (which is permanently mounted to the gas cap) and press down until the lock clicks. This is a very nice, very large, very expensive ($285) tankbag. Only complaint is that on full-lock left turns the bag activates the left turn signal but I can live with that.
Edit--this tank bag ended up being just too big. Replaced it a year later with a Bags Connection "City" tankbag. Same bag, just smaller.
Next is this Cortech tailbag mounted to the trunk lid. This is a light duty bag but a handy place to put rain gear, lunch, dog food, or whatever. It comes with a stretchy waterproof cover for rainy days but even with the cover on it's not waterproof. I got it for $40 in the Flea Market and that's about all it's worth. Mounts with built-in bungie hooks.
Edit--this Cortech bad ended up being pretty worthless. Now if I got extra stuff, I pack it into a
Helen2Wheels waterproof sack
and bungie it to the rack. Here's a pic of my "little" H2W bag--
And my "big" H2W bag--
The Givi rack I installed on the trunk lid is working really well. Note also how nicely my tent fits on the pannier lid with a small cooler on the tail rack.
Next, I just got these really cool pannier liners from
. Only $109 shipped! They were custom-made for me and my panniers so the fit is perfect. Heavy-duty waterproof nylon cordura, top-loading, two outside pockets on each bag (one zippered on top, and a large velcroed pocket on the side), carry handles, and even embroidered! Wow!
Close-up of the large side pocket and the zipped top pocket--
I've taken the outfit on some shakedown rides, but the first big trip starts next Thursday--that will be a 500-mile 4-day camping trip to Lake Chelan for the Chelan Sidecar Rally. Haven't decided yet if I'm taking the dog or the wife in the sidecar.

As a United Way representative, Quin will be responsible for a multitude of activities to help garner volunteers who will tutor and mentor young people until they graduate. Through traditional and social media, Quin will work with the local United Way chapter to engage the Houston community and challenge them to work with "Team NFL". Additionally, he will participate in the NFL Live United Campaign, acting as spokesperson for United Way's work in education.
By 2014, Quin has been challenged to help recruit 3,000 volunteer pledges. "Team NFL" currently represents 96,000 pledges, less than 10% of the overall goal. Quin's role kicks off in June when he joins the rest of the team in Washington D.C. for United Way's national "Team NFL" Day of Action.
"It truly is an honor and a blessing to be in a position where I am able to give back to the community," said Quin. "United Way has provided me an opportunity to encourage others to get involved and make a difference in the lives of the next generation."
One million students drop out of high school each year in America. United Way aims to cut this number in half by 2018. Through partners like the National Football League, United Way will recruit one million volunteer readers, tutors and mentors by 2014. To implement this key strategy, a group of college-educated players from each of the 32 NFL teams have been selected as ambassadors for United Way's "Team NFL". The players will utilize their relationships to help 560,000 young people graduate high school by 2018.
About Glover Quin
Glover Quin is a starting strong safety for the Houston Texans. He is from Summit, Mississippi and played college football at the University of New Mexico. Quin was picked up by the Texans during the fourth round of the 2009 NFL draft. Quin's incredible performance on the field earned him a Texans franchise record for the most interceptions in a game by a single player.
About United Way "Team NFL"
United Way's "Team NFL" is a core group of college-educated, civic-minded players from each of the 32 NFL teams. "Team NFL" was created to address the problem of the increasing number of high school drop outs in the United States. The team will round up volunteers who will tutor and mentor young people until they graduate. The "Team NFL" term will last from April 2012 to June 2014.

GLENDALE, AZ - OCTOBER 10: Goaltender Steve Mason #1 of the Columbus Blue Jackets warms up before the NHL game against the Phoenix Coyotes at Jobing.com Arena on October 10, 2009 in Glendale, Arizona. The Blue Jackets defeated the Coyotes 2-0. (Photo by Christian Petersen/Getty Images)
Not so long ago Steve Mason and Sergei Bobrovsky were considered two of the brightest young goaltending stars in the NHL. No more. Now the 24-year-olds are vying for playing time - and maybe a jump start to their careers - with the rebuilding Columbus Blue Jackets. Mason won the Calder Trophy as rookie of the year in 2008-09, the only season the Blue Jackets have made the playoffs in their 12 years. Bobrovsky once was considered the goalie of the future for the Philadelphia Flyers before he fell flat and ended up in Columbus this past summer, which got him for the meager price of a second-round and two fourth-round picks in the 2013 draft. Both say the competition is good for them.

Is it a cinched waist/bottom of shirt?
I thought this shirt was so cute when I saw it online, but I ended up returning it (the melon color). The fit was just...unflattering. I usually wear a small, and I got it in small, and although I am fit, I felt like the drape of the top gave me a built-in muffin top. It wasn't terrible, but it just wasn't cute enough for $55 bucks! Try it out, but beware if you don't want to spend the return shipping fees.
Black is back
Actually, it never went away. I love the back one! This style is super trendy right now, with the dolman sleeve and the V front and back are extremely flattering on. It looks great with my Spice color Kara jeans I just got. The tie on the front of this shirt has been removed for production, so don't expect that when you receive it. Personally, I like mine better without.

Same here. I just like to pretend that everything after Archer blew up the Xindi weapon didn't happen. Like he was able to beam himself to safety or someone beamed him to safety, whatever. I'm normally pretty easy on B&B compared to a lot of folks around here, but I have no idea what they were thinking when they wrote that little "cliffhanger." They didn't have a guarantee of Season Four happening at the time, right?
I dunno about season 4 possibly not happening, but a hanger that terrible seems the best way to make it happen. But I agree with the above sentiments... if I rewatch, I just pretend Storm Front didn't happen.... and Terra Prime is the finale. Season 4 had a lot going for it, but the pilot and finale as presented really were bad.
And that map in Storm Front really annoys me. I get it, you want evil Nazi's in the US! (Oh no!) But think about the strategic implications for JUST ONE SECOND. If the Nazi's and their handwaved invasion fleet are invading the US, they would have to attack Canada first to seize Halifax. The zoomed out version of the pic S/U fan posted shows Canada that apparently was at peace with Germany even those they were in the war before the US in reality. But we can't even have consistent BS here can we?
Home is a better episode and really brings a nice resolution/reflection to the Xindi arc, so you have something to look forward to!

A century of information warfare
Posted: August 10, 2014 at 1:57 a.m.
One hundred years ago last Monday, after German troops marched into Belgium, Britain declared war. Scarcely an hour later it sent its cable ship Alert into the English Channel. By dawn, amid heavy rain and wind, the crew had severed Germany's five most important Atlantic cables.

Israeli soldiers found the opening of a large tunnel in Israeli territory dug from the Gaza Strip that officials believe is intended for use in terror activity.
The tunnel, which was discovered Monday near Kibbutz Nir Oz during a regular patrol near the border with Gaza, was built to execute terror attacks against Israeli civilians and soldiers, the Israel Defense Forces said in a statement.
"The tunnel, large enough to carry people, is the same kind of tunnel used in 2006 to ambush IDF soldiers & kidnap Gilad Shalit," the IDF said on its Twitter account.
Shalit, an Israeli soldier, was released by Hamas in October 2011 after more than five years in captivity in exchange for some 1,100 Palestinian prisoners, many of whom reportedly returned to participating in terror activities.
The tunnel was uncovered due to last week's heavy rains throughout the region.
Palestinian terror groups, including Hamas, have called for the kidnapping of more Israeli soldiers in order to exchange them for Palestinians in Israeli jails.

There's a Giantbomb PC gaming group which is headed by AhmadMetallic and is fantastically well done. They play and organize events for many different multiplayer games in several different genres. Unfortunately, as far as I know, there is no such thing for the Xbox 360 duders out there. I'd like to fix this and would gladly organize it myself if I can get some support, help, and of course some players to come and play.
There are some issues that I can think of right off of the top of my head. The first, and most prominent of these, is that the PC gaming group has Steam and Xbox 360... doesn't. Sure, Live is a good service, but it doesn't have any sort of groups or clans that I know of. It just has friends lists, and having everyone in the group befriend each other could be a bit of a hassle, and the more successful this is the more hassle that would be. Possible solutions include a Steam group of our own - which would require everyone to install and create a Steam account - or to create a Facebook group, or something similar. Either of these solutions could make announcements and organization of games much easier, but each requires people to have something other than Xbox Live, and each could have other issues tied up with them (e.g. someone might not have or want a Facebook account).
EDIT: It has been suggested by several people that I create a Giantbomb Community Xbox Live account, similar to how the TNT's gather games. To me, this coupled with a Facebook group sounds like the absolute best idea. You can create a fake Facebook account if you are uncomfortable with linking GB and FB.
However, that leads into another issue. Joining games. Since Live doesn't have any groups, we would have to pick one or a few people who could be depended on to both friend everyone and be involved in every single game. But then, this could be another hassle. People have lives and other business to attend to, so what if all of these people are gone doing something, or all of them have to leave at some point in the game? People couldn't join in the middle of a game. For me, personally, my internet connection works well enough most of the time but sometimes drops completely out. ARGH! This isn't easy.
Another, lesser issue is DLC. Not everyone has it all, but will those of us that do accept playing on older maps? I will, personally, but it would be a shame to, say, not play Halo Reach on the Anniversary maps. Do I just ignore those that didn't shell out the extra cash? Do I organize other games for them during game events?
Specific to one game that I'd really like to start this off with, how about Battlefield 3? Servers for that game cost, and I can't really spare much cash at the moment. A possible solution would be joining empty servers, but we can't put those to our specifications.
To wrap this all up, I have two major questions before I even start figuring out how to get this going.
- Are people going to play these games and support this subcommunity?
- Is there anyone who could help me with this rather large endeavour? (wait... why is there a red line under "endeavour"?)
Games I hope to be playing with you guys
- Battlefield 3
- Halo Reach
- Left 4 Dead 2
- Halo Wars
- Trials Evolution
- Mass Effect 3
- Crysis 2
- Gears of War 3
- Team Fortress 2
- Counter Strike Global Offensive (upon release)
...and many more exist which I don't own, but which people would be welcome to use this group to organize and start events on.
P.S. This week and next week are my final two, very busy weeks of college. This is just a preliminary thing I'm asking and I don't want to start this until next Friday when I can really put my unemployed, done with class energies into getting it up and running well.
P.P.S.I do not own a PS3, so I can't really organize a PS3 gaming group. I promise, I would if I could. If I do get this up and running well, and someone wants to do the same for PS3, feel free to ask me questions.
P.P.P.S. If AhmadMetallic, or anyone else that has experience here, happens to see this, it would be nice to hear of any unexpected issues and problems you may have had organizing the PC gaming group, and any extra hints would be nice.

About Defitelio™
Defitelio obtained a Marketing Authorization by the European Commission for the treatment of severe hepatic VOD in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) therapy. A Phase 3 randomized controlled study of defibrotide in the prevention of hepatic VOD in pediatric HSCT patients has also been completed. Defitelio has generally been well-tolerated; the most frequent adverse reactions observed during the treatment of hepatic VOD in pre-marketing use were hemorrhage, hypotension and coagulopathy.
About VOD
VOD is a potentially life-threatening condition, which typically occurs as a significant complication of stem cell transplantation. Certain high-dose conditioning regimens used as part of stem cell transplantation can damage the lining cells of hepatic blood vessels and result in VOD, a blockage of the small veins in the liver that leads to liver failure and can result in significant dysfunction in other organs such as the kidneys and lungs (so-called severe VOD). Stem cell transplantation is a frequently used treatment modality for hematologic cancers and other conditions in both adults and children.

Paramount Pictures
This comedy, very loosely based on the Dickens text, gives Bill Murray a platform for what he's always done best: caustic, wacky humor with a heaping dose of vulnerability.
In this mish-mash of the classic, directed by Richard Donner, Alfre Woodard stands in for Bob Cratchit, sort of, and Bobcat Goldthwait plays an ousted employee set on revenge. Murray, as a hard-hearted executive of a fictional TV network, cares only about ratings and hypes his station's live "Christmas Carol" with on-air promos featuring plane explosions and acid rain. (It was the '80s.) Carol Kane shines as one of the ghosts and Karen Allen costars as the one who got away. But the film clearly belongs to Murray, who admits, "I was a schmuck!" and then yells, "I get it now!" before leading everyone in a singalong finale.
Bah humbug, indeed.

WASHINGTON – Texting while driving doesn't just endanger others on the road, it can threaten your wallet.
People ticketed for texting while driving could face higher insurance premiums since quotes are based on a driver's history, according to 4AutoInsuranceQuote.org.
Avoid the temptation to take your hands off the wheel by installing an app or a voice activated system that allows hands-free texting. You also can install a text-blocking app while driving, the Insurance Research Council says.
A more extreme approach is using a sensor device that cuts off a phone's signal when triggered by the handheld's usage. Of course, the cheapest solution is simply to turn off your phone when you get in the car.

The issue of "rolling Russian gold roubles", and alleged "Iranian cash gifts" helping sustain a virulently anti-Roma and anti-semitic party that flaunts its hostility to Western liberal democracy is troubling Hungarian public opinion.
Loading article content
The proto-fascist party's xenophobia and strong-arm actions against what it calls "the criminal Roma" have secured it a measure of popularity – and, because of its anti-Western stance, Russian interest is not surprising.
Moscow's alleged influence with this extreme right-wing party has been raised in Hungary's Parliament and investigated by the National Security Commission (NSC).
Jozsef Gulyas, an independent MP in the last parliament, who brought the troubling issue to the attention of the Parliamentary National Security Committee, said that "though the 'rolling Russian gold' was discussed by the NSC in a closed session, officials would not give an unambiguous denial whether this was true".
In an interview with the Budapest weekly paper HVG he said: "After a secret session of the Commission, neither the secret services minister nor the Commission chairman could give me a reassuring reply."
Jobbik, formed in 2003, won 47 seats in the Hungarian Parliament in last April's General Election and has three MEPs in Strasbourg – a swift rise considering it had failed to get a single MP elected in the previous parliament.
Its failure to publish its budget in the first five years of its existence, although obliged by law to make public
its income and expenditure every year, has heightened concerns about its sources of income. It is now being investigated by the Public Prosecutor's Office.
Yielding to public pressure, it has now published its accounts from 2004 to 2008. Its income, solely from private donors, hovered between 2.6 million and three million forints (about £7700-£8800), with expenditure in three out of four years slightly less than that.
So, the party's annual budget is allegedly smaller than the smallest of Budapest family businesses – yet it is running a well-oiled nationwide party machine, supports 47 MPs and three MEPs, and, it is claimed, spent more than 30 million forints (£100,000) in the April election campaign. The size of its expenditure, coupled with the irregularities of its declared income, have reinforced public concerns.
Who, then, is bankrolling Jobbik, the scourge of Hungary's gypsies and a thorn in the side of Viktor Orban's new centre-right Fidesz government?
The belief that Russia is using its roubles to manipulate public figures and finance parties useful in opposing liberal Western policies dates back to between the war years, when the Moscow-based Comintern – the Communist International's executive – used "rolling Russian gold" to further Soviet interests and subvert Europe.
At first glance, the Russian connection is questionable, if only because of Jobbik's erstwhile anti-Russian rants. But it quickly abandoned its Russian-bashing stance, changed its platform, exploited the "Roma crime issue" and latent antisemitism and focused on countering "decadent Western liberalism".
The latter strand has found a positive echo in certain nationalist quarters in Moscow. According to informed Budapest sources, Russian money is reaching the party via key individuals. Sources close to investigators of the Public Prosecutor's Office fingered Bela Kovacs, Jobbik's foreign policy adviser, as one of Moscow's channels.
Jobbik's Russian nexus began late in 2008, when party leader Gabor Vona attended an "intellectual conference" on Russian-European links in Moscow, though he refused to name it.
Vona's invitation was arranged by Kovacs, who attended as the party's foreign policy adviser. At the conference they met several high-ranking Kremlin officials. Afterwards a pro-Russian and anti-Western trend became discernible in Jobbik's public posture, with high praise for Vladimir Putin's authoritarian, "managed democracy" and rejection of the EU's liberal values.
The sources point out that Kovacs's Russian links go back to communist times, when he worked there on the legal side of inter-state foreign trade. In 2003, he qualified as an investment lawyer at the Russian State Academy's law faculty. His Russian business links have since been ongoing.
Party finances specialists say that, if Jobbik is being financed from abroad, the money could only reach it covertly, through private entrepreneurs. Kovacs, they claim, fits the bill and is involved.
Reports that Jobbik is also receiving Iranian money focus on the fact that Tehran's gold is intended to reward pro-Iranian and anti-Western attitudes. Krisztina Morvay, a Jobbik MEP, is known in Brussels for her pro-Iran views. Recently she attended President Ahmedinejad's "Human Rights Conference" in Tehran as her party's official representative and also privately met several influential Iranian politicians. Jobbik's pro-Russian and pro-Iranian posturings appear to be rewarding.

- This chemistry teacher lit the room on fire as part of a lesson. These kids' parents would probably prefer he just secretly cook meth.
- Turns out Thomas Jefferson introduced all the good foods to America. Ice cream and mac and cheese? Sounds like he also introduced America to weed.

- A dildo from the 18th century was just dug up in Poland. Give it a quick wipe down and some fresh D batteries and it's good as new!
- This guy's play by play voicemail of a fight he witnessed is amazing. I don't know if this is real or fake, but his laugh contains all the joy the world has ever known.
- DMX makes a lot of sense on Twitter. Sure, he's not rapping much these days, but he is a wise philosopher.

I installed windows 8 pro last friday on my 2008 gateway desktop.
Installed directv2pc today, installed with no issues, and up and running first time.
So I think its down to individual HW on whether or not it will function..
After several months of D2PC not working under Win7 (audio, but no video), I upgraded to Win8 yesterday. Now, everything works fine.
I'm not sure if Win8 is using the AMD Catalyst driver that was already installed or just a generic AMD driver. I'm not a gamer, so I don't need the Catalyst drivers.
I imagine that this might work for a lot of people. A clean install of Win7 would probably also do the trick, since I know that it was working fine (with the Catalyst drivers) up until a few months ago.
We might be blaming the video drivers when in fact it might be a Windows issue. I know that I had a bunch of problems with Win7 a few months ago and finally tracked it down to excessive CPU usage by the Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver. During my troubleshooting period, I may have changed any number of things (including video drivers) that might cause playback issues.

The software started working on my Win 8 Pro after a reboot. AV is OK, but I do not see recordings in folders. Is it a known issue?
This is not meant to be a definitive answer, but in my research on this issue I do not recall this being an issue. Maybe the particular HRxx is not set to use folders?

Shark (WMUR)
Floyd Ellis told local station WMUR that his brother found the decomposing blue shark on Thursday. The closest ocean beach is a 45-minute drive away, so authorities think fishers without a license may have caught it there and then dumped it in the woods to decompose when they realized they might get in trouble for the catch.
Miltonites at a local pond told the station they had never heard of anything like it. One man suggested that the incident was likely a real-world extension of the Discovery Channel's annual summer roundup of shark-themed programming.
"It's totally Shark Week," the man said.

Though many people dispute his theories, many parents of J.R.C. students support Israel. Bonnie Diaz's son Chris has pervasive developmental disorder, attention deficit disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder. He was kicked out of one school after only two weeks for breaking furniture and knocking a bookshelf over on a teacher.
Soon it became dangerous for Diaz to transport her son, because he would hit her while she was driving. Eight months after he began attending the J.R.C and receiving skin shock therapy, Diaz was able to hug her son for the first time in almost two years.
Ed Ferri, a student at J.R.C., received skin shock therapy and has become more independent. He attended J.R.C. for 10 years. For five years he wore the G.E.D. device nearly 24 hours a day, every day of the week. "I would head bang, bite myself," said Ferri.
"I'd be swearing, I'd be getting physically restrained, held down by numerous staff members. And my life really wasn't going anywhere." He has since graduated from J.R.C., works in the school's kitchen and lives in a group home across the street from the school. "I never envisioned me getting this far in my life," said Ferri.
These are the students that Israel said he wants to save. "They're in a life quality-threatening situation," said Israel. "Because without the treatment, they're going to end up with no jobs, on the streets, in an institution of some kind, or warehoused, or on drugs."
Massachusetts state Sen. Brian Joyce sees aversive therapy as cruel and inhumane. "If this same treatment were allowed on terrorists in Guantanamo Bay, there would be worldwide outrage," he said. "It's incredible to me that it is going on today here in Massachusetts, and I do believe it should be stopped."
Dr. Barry Prizant, an expert on autistic children at Brown University's Center for the Study of Human Development, doesn't see any role for the G.E.D. device in the treatment of people with severe autism. "We believe that some kids and some people with autism actually may develop post-traumatic stress disorder based upon these cumulative negative emotional memories [of being shocked]," he said.
Prizant believes that "positive approaches have much longer-term positive effects on people with the most severe behavior."
The New York state Board of Regents, which issued a report in June 2006, recently decided they will no longer allow students from the state to receive skin shock treatment after 2009, except in very rare cases. Israel said the report is biased and is fighting the state action.
Parents like the Dohertys are also not onboard with this decision. Richard Doherty wants his son to enjoy life in the best way he can. "I don't want him strapped down to a bed. I don't want him doped up and drooling," he said. "I want him to be safe."
Linda Doherty also sees the benefit of skin shock therapy. "My son is not biting himself. He's not self-injurious. My son is not attacking people, so people can work with him without fear of being physically harmed," she said. "He's able to work on a computer. He's able to go on field trips and go out into the community. They're able to start giving him some sort of job skills, like sweeping a floor or putting knifes and forks into plastic packs. I think that it is a success."

Norwich — Three apartments in the Cedar Glen complex at 99 Cedar St. were damaged in an early morning fire Friday.
Norwich Fire Chief Ken Scandariato said the fire was reported at 5:28 a.m. in Building C, which houses more than a dozen apartments. Upon arrival, he said, fire was visible on two floors, with flames shooting out of the windows.
Scandariato said he called in a second-alarm, which summons all the city's volunteer fire departments, as a precaution because the fire easily could have spread throughout the building. The Mohegan Tribal Fire Department assisted in fighting the blaze.
The building was evacuated with the assistance of local police. No injuries were reported.
Tenants of the complex stood outside shivering in the cold, some huddling in a stairwell in the adjacent Building D.
Janet Janssen said she lives on the third floor in apartment 47, next door to where the fire apparently started, in apartment 48.
"A cop and a fireman banged on my door and told me to get out of the house now," Janssen said. "I thought to myself, here we go again."
Janssen was referring to a Jan. 7 incident, when she and her neighbors were forced to evacuate their apartments because Jason Razzino, who lived in Building D, shot a police officer then killed himself during a standoff with police.
Janssen was wearing only pants, a shirt and socks; she hadn't had time to put on her shoes.
"I don't know if my apartment got damaged," she said.
Eventually, Janssen, along with a young couple with an infant, were allowed to sit in the back of a police cruiser to stay warm.
Dixie Blyden, who lives on the second floor in apartment 39, said an emergency official knocked on her door.
"I grabbed all of my medications and got out of there," Blyden said. "I could see the flames. They were so high."
Evelyn Sanchez said she lives in the apartment where the fire started. She thought that a lit candle may have started the blaze. She said she was at her neighbor's apartment when the fire started. She declined further comment.
Scandariato confirmed that the fire started on the third floor and burned its way down to the second. Firefighters conducted a fast and aggressive interior attack, he said, which kept the fire in check.
A ladder truck was used for access to ventilate the roof and to check for hot spots.
The fire was under control shortly before 6:30 a.m.
Norwich Director of Inspections James Troeger said residents of about a dozen apartments surrounding the three damaged units were allowed to return to their homes Friday afternoon.
The three damaged apartments will be closed for much longer, Troeger said. The third-floor unit where the fire started suffered extensive damage. The fire burned through the floor to a second-floor unit, and a first-floor unit was damaged extensively by water.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.

He's on a one-year $2.65 mil contract. Completely awful fielder, bat seemingly on the decline. Add in his propensity for strikeouts, and I doubt the Reds try to claim him. But, pretty good power and OBP.
He's on a one-year $2.65 mil contract. Completely awful fielder, bat seemingly on the decline. Add in his propensity for strikeouts, and I doubt the Reds try to claim him. But, pretty good power and OBP.
A's fans are outraged, and A's players are disappointed. They know they need him to compete in 2010.
I like Cust, but don't see him fitting in on the Reds
Yeah, he has no role on the Reds. He also seemed to indicate he'd accept a demotion to AAA if the A's don't trade him.
Cust should have been given a better chance in the Majors sooner in his career. He wasted away in San Diego and the National League for a couple of years because they didn't have a DH and he played Defense a lot worse than Alonso.
The A's finally gave him a fair shot 3 years later than when he should have gotten one and he rewarded them with a .900+ OPS his first full season. But, he peaked (no, he wasn't a steroids user as someone here so foolishly suggested), as he never was going to be a great hitter, just a very, very good one for 2 or 3 seasons (he only got the chance at the end of that peak). His K's went up each of the last two years as his walks went down and his HR's went down.
The A's gave him a big contract this winter for a guy they could have projected would repeat the same season he had last season of low average, decent walks, high K's, and high HR's, while having horrible defense.
He loses his large salary from the A's if he doesn't accept the minor league assignment and as it's unlikely he ever gets offered more than $600K again in a season, he'd be wise to take the $2.6M.
He's always been strictly a DH, and the A's were the only team ever willing to put him in the field for any amount of at-bats that might negatively effect the club's pitching.
He's still a tremendous LH-HR hitter with the ability to get on base if a club needs a runner in late innings or needs that HR hit.
An AL team with a weak LH power bench should pick him up if he chooses to not accept the DFA, but I don't think he'll chance that the new contract he gets (likely only $400K-$600K as any team will wait for him to pass waivers first) will make it worth just so he can be a pinch-hitter off a bench. He'll likely get recalled in Oakland anyway for the same role, while making more money.

There's a reason they cut him -- he's bad.
He was all power, no glove, no average. A mediocre player in every sense of the word.
He is pretty much a poor man's Adam Dunn.

Enterprise Vault Index Admin Service Event 41293
Some of you may have encountered the "The Enterprise Vault installation is currently in maintenance mode and consequently unable to process your request" error and failure of the EV Indexing service to start.
Other threads show that this can be resolved by either removing and reinstalling the Indexing Engine or more simply by renaming the two files called maintenance-mode in the EVIndexing and BIN folders.
This error occurred for me on two storage servers today immediately after replacing the network adapters. So it seems that this service is sensitive to a change in the network card configuration.
Fortunately the quick file rename option resolved the issue in both instances.

Cleve Carney Art Gallery to Present VIVIAN MAIER: EXPOSED, 6/17-8/16
The Cleve Carney Art Gallery hosts a unique exhibit of Vivian Maier's work entitled "Vivian Maier: Exposed" at the McAninch Arts Center, 425 Fawell Blvd., Glen Ellyn, IL, June 17 - Aug. 16. The opening preview reception will be Tuesday, June 17 from 6 - 8 p.m. and will include a meet and greet with members of "Team Vivian," a College of DuPage (COD) team including vintage film processor, Frank Jackowiak, and several film and photography students, who processed her film. The reception and exhibition is free and open to the public. The gallery will also host special related events including "An Afternoon with Vivian Maier" film screening/panel discussion/book signing event on Sunday, July 27 from 1 until 4 p.m. Tickets are required for this event. For more about the exhibition or related events, visit cod.edu/gallery or call 630.942.3206.
Born in New York City in 1926, Vivian Maier spent her childhood in France before returning to New York in the late 1930's. Later, Maier moved to Chicago and worked as a nanny for nearly 40 years, a livelihood that supported her and her passion for photography. Maier produced more than 100,000 negatives during her life, but showed them to very few people. Her work remained unknown until its discovery in 2007, only a year after her death. Since then, Maier's photos have ignited passion and enthusiasm in photography buffs and art enthusiasts alike worldwide.
Jeffrey Goldstein is one of the three original owners of what is known to exist of Vivian's work. Goldstein needed to develop 275 rolls of Maier's photographs and, with the help of friends, found Frank Jackowiak, a COD faculty member at the time and co-curator of the Cleve Carney Art Gallery's "Vivian Maier: Exposed" exhibition. Jackowiak developed the film over one weekend alongside a small team of COD students. Members of this group, known as "Team Vivian," will share their story and lead the tour of the exhibit and of COD's photography facilities during the June 17 opening reception. "We didn't have any film that was ruined," Jackowiak says, an impressive feat given its age. "I don't think I'll have the same experience ever again. The perk was that [whoever developed the film] was the first person on the planet that got to see those images."
Champions of Maier's photography have been organizing exhibitions and events nationally and internationally since the discovery of her work. The "Vivian Maier: Exposed" exhibition at the Cleve Carney Art Gallery will be unique in its showcasing of both silver gelatin prints and digitally-produced prints of Maier's photographs side-by-side, facilitating an opportunity for discussion. All the photographs and artifacts in the exhibit are on loan from the Jeffrey Goldstein Collection, Vivian Maier Prints, Inc.

STEPHANOPOULOS: They are signaling that they can't accept the kinds of entitlement reforms, especially in Medicare and Social Security, that Senator Graham is saying are prerequisite to a deal.
DURBIN: Let me tell you, first, George -- and you know this -- Social Security does not add one penny to our debt -- not a penny. It's a separate funded operation, and we can do things that I believe we should now, smaller things, played out over the long term that gives it solvency.
Medicare is another story. Only 12 years of solvency lie ahead if we do nothing. So those who say, "Don't touch it, don't change it," are ignoring the obvious. We want Medicare to be there for today's seniors and tomorrow's, as well. We don't want to go the Paul Ryan route of voucherizing it, privatizing it, but we can make meaningful reforms in Medicare and Medicaid without compromising the integrity of the program, making sure that the beneficiaries are not paying the price for it, except perhaps the high-income beneficiaries. That to me is a reasonable approach.
Let me salute Lindsey Graham. What he just said about revenue and taxes needs to be said on his side of the aisle. We need to be honest on our side of the aisle. And as we did under Bowles-Simpson, put everything on the table.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Does that include raising the age for Medicare eligibility?
DURBIN: Here's my concern about that, George. What happens to the early retiree who needs health insurance before that person's eligible for Medicare? I had it happen in my family, and I'll bet a lot of your viewers did, as well. We've got to make sure that there is seamless coverage of affordable health insurance for every American. My concern about raising that Medicare retirement age is there will be gaps in coverage or coverage that's way too expensive for seniors to purchase.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Is that a fair point, Senator Graham?
GRAHAM: Not really. I don't think you can look at entitlement reform without adjusting the age for retirement, like Tip O'Neill and Ronald Reagan did. It goes to 66, 67 here pretty soon for Social Security. Let it float up another year or so over the next 30 years, adjust Medicare from 65 to 67 over the next 30 years, means test benefits for people in our income level. I don't expect the Democrats to go for premium support or a voucher plan, but I do expect them to adjust these entitlement programs before they bankrupt the country and run out of money themselves. So age adjustment and means testing for both Social Security, Medicare I think is eminently reasonable. And all those who've looked at this problem have done that over time.
STEPHANOPOULOS: I want to move on to another subject, but, quickly, Senator Durbin, you praised Senator Graham right there because he was open to more revenues. Do you think that capping deductions is the answer? Or will there actually have to be an increase in tax rates for the wealthy?

Smart move by the Steelers.
I wonder if this changes the draft strategy? Maybe no more Warmack or Cooper! I would guess it does.
Hmmm… I'd rather see them signing Lewis than Foster.
I doubt this was a depth move. If Foster signed a 3 year deal, it was to be a starter, not a back up
Great move. Welcome back.
Welcome back, Kotter! ( yeah, Mr. Kotteerr!)… Freddy Boom Boom Washington.
Not necessarily if they go with BPA and either one is high on the Steelers board. Those guys are stud and it will be tough to pass up on that kind of talent @ 17
That means so long and good bye to Willie Colon one would think!!!
An undrafted free agent such as Ramon is just a hair under Warmack, Cooper (1st rounder talent), goes to show ya how tight the NFL talent window space is. Hard work in film and wt room pays off.
So do Steelers brass still have one eye on Thaddeus Gibson /waiver wire?
This should not affect the draft strategy of the Steelers…when they are the best at recognizing talent and drafting that talent, they are doing so with the "best player available" strategy…they need to continue this trend…if they are sitting there at 17 and Cooper or Warmack is there and they are at the top of the draft board, they should and I think will draft him…
Good catch. Right tackle I hope. Adams at backup can then get time he needs to learn how to passblock for the NFL.
Glad He's Back. Always liked Ramon. He needs to shed a few & get stronger but it's the smartest move. Willie in my opinion was always going to be a post June cut to Save 5 Million.
If Coopers on the board you take him.
Where would you play a Cooper if he was drafted? If it is true that Foster signed a 3 year deal that is a starter contract! Plus nothing has been decided about Colon either.
I hope we can put an end to this drafting an OL in the first now
I am absolutely thrilled, and surprised, by this news! While I really would like to see Lewis resigned as well, this is actually what I considered to be the most important matter to be taken care of.
Doesnt change it, i hope-think, because Foster could be our ok right tackle, not mobile enough for starting guard, wheras Warmack-Cooper are guard only.
Great news! Ramon is the type of inexpensive, dependable guy that we need more of on the roster.
Probably not good news for Colon though.
You might trade down to get another 3rd but if he's there after the trade down you have to take him. However I see Tyler Eifert, Tavon Austin or a WR as the pick. Unless Star L falls.
Gibson was hurt by not being able to participate in off season workouts due to stupid college rule.
No matter what they tried he always becomes the starter.
Willie was always gone. Saves 5 million in June. That money can sign the draft picks before camp.
One has nothing to do with the other. I hope they sign Lewis but I have a feeling he's following Wallace to Miami because they need a CB also.
Miami might get Wallace Mendenhal & Lewis.. Great comp picks for us next year.
However I'd sign Lewis & Extend Cortez Allen and I'd cut Ike Taylor to pay for it.
Dude plays LG, RG and RT.. and has stayed healthy, something we drastically need across the whole OLine… Foster earned it, clawing his way from the practice squad, he's a Steeler for sure
Agreed… I see a post June 1st release now
Best news of this off-season so far.
Yes sir!!! Love it love it love it
I agree.. but something tells me they will still restructure Woodley, in order to sign K.Lewis
Goodbye Willie!
I'm sure they're trying. The problem is at this point Lewis isn't re-signing with us until he hears ALL the other offers from ALL the other teams. I would probably do the same thing if I was him. It just sucks that we didn't get him on the field sooner (in place of William F-ing Gay) so we could've extended him for less.
I'll second that opinion!!!
The same dilemma exists today if in fact Foster is signed: Where will you play Foster or Colon (if he is not cut by June 1st) ?
If Cooper or Warmack are drafted I bet Colon is gone.
I would say it absolutely changes our draft strategy. We just paid Foster starter money. Strategically speaking, it makes much more sense to draft a developmental OG who will be ready to start in 2-3 years (like we did with Foster) than draft a plug and play 1st round OG and have him sit while we wait for an injury.
Is Lewis going to play on the offensive line? Signing Foster all but guarantees Colon is gone, which frees up cap space with which to retain Lewis.
I don't know, Steelers haven't seen enough of Adams yet. He only started 6 out of 10 games played. Unless all parties agree that Foster is a backup then they could still draft a Cooper or Warmack.
He'll get cut after June 1st probably.
Good Foster is a reliable hard working guy he isn't always injured and getting penalties like Colon.
Now the team just needs to cut Colon.
Hopefully people will stop talking about drafting a guard in the first round. I doubt the team had any intention of doing that anyway.
I think that is generally true, however if the top athlete on the board happens to play G, e.g. Warmack or Cooper, when the Steelers are up, I think it is still possible Foster may be a bit of an underdog for the starting role. That being said, I am perfectly fine with him as a starter and looking at defense with our #1 pick.
WoooooHoooooo!!! Great move. Goodbye Colon. Hello 1st rd. receiver.
Could someone help me here? I thought the money freed up after Harrison's release was just enough for the RFA tenders. Does this mean that the hit of the Foster contract is the same (more or less) as his tender? That would be amazingly cheap. It cannot be much higher, because they'd be over the cap tomorrow.
I believe they were almost $3million under cap after tendering the RFA's.. more than enough to sign Foster (or atleast his first year cap hit) he was an Unrestricted FA, so there was no tender involved, he was tendered before last season
Plus they can still restructure Woodley between now and 4pm tomorrow
He's a guard…Adams will start at LT
Good news now they won't waste their #1 pic on a guard
Totally agree w/ Steeltown! Comes in as a rookie FA, starts some games due to injury, then he's due to be replaced every year, but winds up starting. Plays LG, RG & RT. Gotta root for a guy like that! Good teams win b/c of guys like that.
Agreeing. & apparently the tradeoff is favored by most fans on here.
Foster is just as important than Lewis; I think they could definitely use both. However, if Lewis agent gets greedy, say goodbye. I like this move, Colon isn't worth what they have been paying him the past three years. Either agree to a hefty paycut, or see ya!
I agree, I think for sure they are looking at an OLB/WR/S in that order. If an OLB is there, I think they will take him. However, I think they are comftorable with Worilds, they just might be looking at a Safety or WR. They need some talent on the offense.
Both those Guys are really good players but just like the OLB position, its not an urgent need, we have starters and a nice level of depth, at those positions we should only draft for depth and value our higher round picks. WR, RB, S, and TE are needs for the future
Stop dissing Colon. He was a beast. This is why Dirtbag Suggs ignored the ball carrier and went for Colon's knee. That ended Willie's season in 2012. Colon should take a pay cut until he proves his value for 1 consecutive year, I'm sorry, but Legursky is the one who has to go.
Now we need to ink Legursky. Lego is versatile and while maybe not as talented as some of the new blood he certainly holds his own and is as reliable as morning breath.
yes!!! sign'em young, strong, and before there contract year…!
maybe Worilds next?!
This was Foster's contract year
TE is another option, agree they should be looking for more talent on Offense
would've rather had Lewis resigned first
they have had a few chances to get him back and have passed, don't think they're very interested
yeah they will probably need the cap space to get a deal done, I dont like the idea of giving Woodley more guaranteed $, but if it means that Lewis is resigned its worth it.
I think his position versatility make Foster a good depth move, regardless of if he starts at G, he will most likely be moved out to RT if either Adams or Gilbert get hurt
I think he might be gone..we have John Malecki on roster who is basically a Legursky type player (backup OG, backup Center) and at this point he's a cheaper version. Also if given some snaps in practice I think Beachum could be an emergency Center as well
I could be wrong about Legs though because he wont have much value in FA market, he's a mediocre OG, his value lies as a backup Center, so maybe he comes back for cheap
We now have our starting OL: Adams, Foster, Pouncey, DeCastro, Gilbert.
Amen! Why spend a high pick on the OL now?
Eifert in the first round would be great!
Draft cooper and sit him? Or pay foster and sit him? I would be shocked to see any high pick on the OL this draft.
Yep. This means they can look elsewhere in the first round.
Would love a first round WR or TE!
Im glad, i still think we need a LG, woul like to pick up warmack or cooper. But non the less glad to have him on the team. I dont get certain players though. Wallace for example, he will leave, and the odds of him getting to a SB r terrible. And tbh serves him right. He is greedy and doesnt care. With that going said lol cant wait to see him not beimg able to end his carrer with a ring. As far as lewis, he needs to understand that is what will happen if he leaves. I hope he stays.
Unless you know for sure Colon is gone, then you will have the same dilemma with Colon (even if he takes a pay cut) and Foster fighting for one spot.
