Court To Hear Texas Dispute Over Confederate Flag
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A federal appeals court is scheduled to hear arguments Wednesday on whether a Texas state board violated the free-speech rights of a group that petitioned for a customized license plate featuring the Confederate battle flag.
The Texas Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans sued in 2011 after the state Department of Motor Vehicles Board rejected its application for a specialty license plate.
The group says its design honors the memory of Confederate soldiers and represents Southern heritage, but the board concluded it would offend many residents.
A federal judge dismissed the lawsuit in April, ruling the First Amendment doesn't require the state to place the flag on government-controlled property. The group wants a three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn that decision.

I have a thread in my application which is permanently running sending heartbeat every 5 minutes to a monitoring application.
If my application fails in an exception block I need to exit the thread that is running it (the while loop is based on the thread not being interrupted).
Does this mean in every catch i will need a system exit or a call to interrupt that thread? This seems a very messy approach but I do not know how else too.

-Ah fcuk! a dinosaur...
It's a great game,even unique-I haven't seen anything like this before.The weapon possibilities were really endless,and I had much fun watching,how Toot was riding around the Fortress with no weapons.:D
Protips(spoiler alert):
The best combos are Piercing\Homing(The Ultimate Nonelemental Arrows),Homing\Exploding (Kaboom Arrows),and Fire\Lightning (The Ultimate Elemental Arrows).
Time Arrows will transform enemies into the enemies from the past eras-enemies from the Beginnings will transform into Dinosaurs!
Rockets are good targets for Homing\Traitors(The Reversing Arrows)-if they won't explode at once,of course.
love fire arrow it`s awesome
Great somehow .
The plot and the music is okay but there are some problems in the gameplay.
First , there are no compound shooting system . Am I suppose to aim and attack by clicking continously ? The truth is , even you tried that hard ,there are no way to put them off when they come in groups as they are disarmed only after the third shot .
Second , there are no health promoting system , the only way we got is the temporary shield that can be used for seconds once a stage . It is far less that enough , if you suppose you can fight the boss who possess a chain gun .
I hope it would help much for the improvement .

London Scottish on the rise with a lot of capital
Sunday 08 March 2009
Scotland, with only two professional outfits to their name, need all the help they can get, and they may get it a few years down the line from an unlikely source. London Scottish may be more Territorial Army than tartan, but they are certainly on the rise.
Shortly after the game went professional, Scottish and Richmond, who have shared the Athletic Ground for more than 130 years, crunched shoulders with England's finest, but were then sold down the Thames as their benefactors cut their losses.
The Rugby Football Union – Machiavelli could have been taught a lesson or two here in political infighting – demoted both clubs, not one level from the top tier but nine. The Scots had been sharing The Stoop with Harlequins, star-studded Richmond the Madejski Stad-ium with Reading FC. In one fell swoop their dive was so deep they could have suffered from the bends, or worse, simply drowned. But both clubs have shown extraordinary resilience.
"There was utter desolation," said Rod Lynch, the president, chairman and chief executive of London Scottish. "We were a goner." From the depths of Herts and Middlesex One they have had five promotions, and a few more will see them in the new-fangled Championship, one below the Guinness Premiership. They may even end up as the first club from England to join the Magners League.
"The Scottish are not so much a club as an institution and a fixture of London life," Lynch said. "Their record in producing international players and Lions captains is remarkable."
Lynch, a Scotsman from Perth, used to be on the executive board of the BBC and was a high flier with British Airways before throwing his weight behind the Exiles, who have formed a new company whose board members include Kenny Logan and Chris Rea. "London," said Lynch, "is the third biggest Scottish city after Edinburgh and Glasgow, and those two have a lot of interest in soccer. Here there is tremendous energy being put into rugby."
London Scottish, who are members of the SRU and the RFU (they have a hotline to Murrayfield), are unbeaten this season, which is not so surprising considering they have the sponsorship of, among others, a major Saudi company, Saudex, and have recruited seven former Premiership players. One of them, James Brown from Worcester, is understudied at No 10 by Scott Hadden, the son of the Scotland coach Frank.
The Exiles also enticed Brett Taylor, who had taken Richmond to promotion, to move his office all of 100 yards to the Scottish desk last October, the week after the co-tenants had played against each other. "It was a no-brainer," Taylor said. "The Scottish have investment, potential and ambition.
"I wouldn't have moved if I hadn't been inspired. This is a great opportunity to develop Scottish players and anybody else who comes along. A lot of clubs focus on their top 30 players. Not us. We go from the under-sevens to two development sides to the first team. We're looking at the long term."
Taylor, born in Malaysia of an Army family – his grandfather was a surgeon born in Glasgow – is Scottish, even if he went to school in Devon before arriving at Northampton, where he had the misfortune to bump into Matt Dawson. Taylor has not had much luck in this department. After Nottingham University – yes, Brian Moore was there at the time – he moved to the Saints at Franklin's Gardens as a scrum-half.
He actually shared a house with Dawson, who went on to be the England scrum-half, for five years. "Matt joined the club as a teenager and he ended up being the best man at my wedding. We learnt a lot." Taylor joined the Northampton academy, where he not only oversaw the futures of Ben Cohen and Steve Thompson but came under the influence of Ian McGeechan and, later, the New Zealander Wayne Smith.
Taylor, fired by the example of the Scotsman and the Kiwi, became an assistant coach with the US Eagles for the 2003 World Cup before joining Richmond. Now 40, he is going places and so are the Scottish, who are a few years older.

Looking at sales charts, the Wii U is in a grim place. It has rocked unsteadily on the edge of both success and failure. But there is still hope.
Destructoid Writer Jonathan Holmes shared via Twitter that he's heard rumblings of Nintendo giving out free Wii U development kits. His Tweet says:
Hearing more and more stories of Nintendo giving developers free Wii U dev kits. I hope devs take advantage of that.
The Wii U dev kit is rumored to sell for $5,000 and includes a development console with tools to create games. It was originally delivered to developers in May 2012 lending them only months to create titles before the console's arrival on store shelves.
If there's one area where the Wii U is in dire need of improvement its with its library. It has a few exclusives, but has been extremely slow to garner support from third-party studios. If this were two ore more generations ago third-parties wouldn't be critical, but now they are. Nintendo can't simply ignore external studios and expect to compete in the current climate.
If the rumors are true, this move might attract developers, but probably only independent studios. Publishers are still hesitant to put effort into the platform after seeing how abysmal its attachment rate is. But with fewer than a dozen releases in the first half of 2013 any games are good games.
|Apr 07 2013, 12:34 pm EDT
The Xbox 720 and PS4 will destroy the Wii U when they come out. They are much more powerful, and they can run the next-gen games that developers are making. If I was a developer, I wouldn't waste my time with the Wii U either.

Nintendo basically came out with a console with hardware that doesn't improve on what Sony and MS have already had out there for years, and its sole (pseudo)redeeming gimmick is supposed to be a tablet-style controller with god-awful ergonomics for playing 'serious' games.
The Wii U is a console that doesn't know what it wants to be, and has no reason to exist. If people want a party-style console, there's still the Wii for that. The WII U is essentially just a 360/PS3 competitor that's arrived years too late with a gimmick that only lends itself to party-style games.... which aren't the sort of games that necessitate the hardware upgrade in the first place! So what was the friggin' point?
I really don't understand what Nintendo was thinking. Everyone bought into it, but only because I've noticed there's this knee-jerk reaction in the industry and among gamers that if Nintendo is doing something, surely it must be a good idea.

Easy to add to order. Everything was fresh and of quality condition and taste. We were delighted. Highly recommend.
Garden Grocer was an awesome find! Life was hectic before we left for our Disney vacation and being able to go online the week before, order eggs, fresh veggies and fruit and food for breakfast and dinners, beverages (particularly the case of bottled water for the parks) and snacks to be delivered to our Disney resort was perfect. And having some wine and beer chilling in the fridge when we arrived after a day of travelling was just what we needed. A perfect pairing with Disney's great customer service.
I am so very impressed with this company and will recommend them highly to my clients. So many businesses have lost the concept of service. Garden a Grocer defines it! Karyn Farthing Owner Hooked on Travel

Your whole organization suffers when maintenance and repair events take longer than necessary. The way you manage service events impacts fleet efficiency, asset utilization and ultimately your total cost of ownership (TCO). Discover four ways to make your service event management process more efficient and lower your TCO.
Service Relationship Management (SRM) allows you to manage people, events, operations, assets and information in your fleet maintenance and repair operation no matter where the repairs take place. Learn how an efficient maintenance and repair operation executed properly helps to improve your asset utilization and bottom-line profitability.
Every fleet maintenance manager wants to see a high asset utilization rate. While no fleet achieves 100 percentage asset utilization and some factors are out of your control, you can take steps to ensure your preventive maintenance (PM) program helps your cause. Start by focusing on three keys to better scheduled maintenance.
Regular preventive maintenance (PM) keeps assets running properly. While most fleets have a preventive maintenance program, not every fleet manager always knows if trucks are actually maintained according to that schedule. Learn how a Service Relationship Management (SRM) platform helps fleets practice proper and effective preventive maintenance.
Fleet maintenance and repair events need to be monitored, managed and measured. An automated Service Relationship Management (SRM) platform provides the most efficient way for a fleet's management to accomplish that. Learn about five SRM best practices to implement to ensure you get the most value out of your investment.
Want to get ahead in the fleet management game? Discover how to leverage your preventive maintenance (PM) program and stand out from the competition. A properly designed and executed PM program provides measurable efficiency gains and keeps your trucks on the road longer.
You may not even be aware of the inefficiencies in how you manage service events. The good news is that a Service Relationship Management (SRM) platform helps reduce those barriers to cost-effectiveness and profitability. Learn how an SRM platform provides access to all the information you need about service events as they are occurring so you can make the best decisions.
If you're like most fleet maintenance managers, you probably haven't conducted regular reviews of your maintenance and repair processes recently. Now is the time to consider three key ways to make your life easier and make your service event management operation more efficient. Learn more about mobile technology, the cloud and automating communication.
It's no secret that fleets are continuing to struggle to recruit and retain drivers. Trucking industry experts expect the shortage to not only continue, but to get worse. Learn how a well-run maintenance and repair operation plays a role in keeping your trucks on the road, and your drivers happy.
Communication between fleets and service providers is critical during maintenance and repair events. That's why the Technology & Maintenance Council (TMC) has established recommended practices. Learn more about establishing a protocol for authorizing repairs and then getting buy-in from your service providers.

This is the longest thing I have ever written soo I'll be surprised if someone will read it all :D Here's the thing : I've seen every single episode at least two times and this one I've seen only one soo I decided it's time to rewatch it and I must say it was like watching it for the first time all over again : the feels are real
I love every scene with Lisbon in empty office. In this one she's heartbroken, tears in her eyes, in the second one we can see her smiling and definitely reminiscing
Jesus I almost forgot how much I hated our beloved Jisbon king.
I love this scene soo freaking much. I have to admit that Rockmond was a great choice for Abbott. He has AMAZING chemistry with both Robin and Simon . Robin/Lisbon was an point in every scene. She was soo strong and confident the whole time..when her whole world collapsed: she lost her job, she's in trouble , she knows what Jane is doing and she helpless: she can't help him nor stop him. This scene shows it perfectly when she told Abbott that she still is a good cop without any hesitation in her voice. Powerful scene.
Then this one got me good. I remember that most of you..us was disappointed. "They should kiss or hug at least" . I was all about that but now I can see why they didn't hug.You can see it in their eyes, this is their possible goodbye. Jane fought for it for 10 yrs with Lisbon by his side."This is it" with his soft voice. They are both nervous and scared. I think Lisbon is pretty much aware of her feeling here soo she would go with him but he wants to protect her . They both know they will probably never see each other again.If they hugged they would burst in tears, both of them and Jane had to stay with a sharp mind . This short " eye sex" they gave each other was enough , beautiful and intimate . I teared up. Then I burst in tears because I realized that they are married now and Lisbon is almost 6 months pregnant <3
but OH MAN this scene . Loyalty is the word of this episode. The CBI team was ALWAYS there for Jane , supporting him in 100% even though it was against their nature ( Lisbon changed her mind in season 6 ) . This is such a beautiful scene , I had a series of flashbacks of every moment they were there for him , helping him by doing bunch of very illegal stuff because they were all he had. This whole " we don't know if he's safe with you" was amazing :D Even Jane was like " hmm :D" . Side node : considering all the hate between Abbott and Cho how on earth he ended up working with him ?!xD
I'm glad that Jane said thank you ..they deserved it.
This whole scene in the car was awesome :D This little smile that Grace gave Lisbon and every line of dialogue . Rigsby trying to be the civilize one and Cho being like " what the hell are you doing ? what do you want? a better cell ?"
Now oh Bertram. I think the most of us can say : I never liked the guy. I loved how they were showing us his dark side gradually since the beginning of season 6 but I was sure that he is not RJ . To the very last second I was sure that it's going to be Heffner tbh. Then Bertram died and this happened :
Oh Xander Berkley is an amazing actor and the entire scene in the chapel gave me chills.I was stressed the heck out for the entire 42 minutes but this scene was ..just wow.I'm not touching this whole " McAllister as RJ ..meh " thing because I don't care that it's McAllister. Xander Brkley played a psychopath in amazing way. I don't know if you noticed : small smiles, tongue thing .. and he has an amazing chemistry with Simon.Their talk was chilling " I don't care , Idk know. It pissed RJ , he wanted attention and Jane knew that.
Let's skip the whole pigeon thing., I don't feel like talking about it :D
Okay if you still with me : Remember when I told you it was like watching it for the first time ? I totally forgot about her and this knife thing almost gave me a heart attack.
I'll skip the chase and go to the best part :
During my first time with this ep like most of you I was amused by RJ's behavior but now I understand. I recently rewatched strawberries & cream and fake RJ said " I'm not a monster , I'm a human being ". RJ maybe is a psychopath but he's a person if we liked it or not . He feels fear , he's afraid of the pain of dying , and of death.
oh Simon Baker.. Simon Baker ladies and gentlemen. Deep breaths, tensed jaw, calm voice, some sort of satisfaction and relieve written all over his face. He finally found his peace.
here.. idk what he was thinking . In my opinion he thought about pulling the trigger but then he thought about Lisbon and the rest of the team and that they wouldn't want that. Let;s leave this like that .
of course he called Lisbon. " I'm gonna miss you" * I'm not crying..not at all*
I wonder if she ever got that message or they took her phone as evidence. I hope she got it :(
and the run is very symbolic too . He was chasing his demons for soo long, now he is finally free.
God I hope that at least half of it makes sense :D
Okay it took me an hour. If someone read that : THANK YOU
@ajgilly3 Time to get serious.

SA Hill Fire August 3, 2015 @11:00 AM
Size: 380 Acres
Containment: 0%
Cause: Lightening Caused
Date Started: Sunday, August 2
Location: 3 Miles Northwest of Cleator, AZ (T11N, R1E, S8)
Fuels: Brush, Pinyon Pine, Juniper and Continuous Grass Crop
Terrain: Rugged, Rocky, Limited Access
Resources Assigned: 2 Engines, 1 Type-3 Helicopter, 2 Fuels Crews, 1 Air Attack, 1 Dozer
Resources Ordered: 2 Type-2 Crews, 4 Engines
Firefighters will continue to secure and established a boundary line on the south and east sides of the fire and scout the north and west sides for containment options. Activity and growth on the fire will increase today due to drier conditions and continuous dry grass. The fire's progression is to the north but remains approximately 5 miles southwest of Mayer and 3 miles northwest of Cleator. Smoke will be visible to motorists on HWY 69, I-17 and surrounding communities.
Fire managers take into consideration many factors when deciding what actions to take in suppressing fire including firefighter and public safety, location, fuels, terrain, current and forecast weather, potential fire spread and smoke impacts. More information will be provided as it becomes available.
The public can obtain fire information via the following:
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and local officials advises the homeowner to take the following steps:
Your home has been flooded. Although floodwaters may be down, many dangers could still exist. Here are things to remember in the days ahead.

Yavapai County Flood Control: 928-649-6222
Monsoons can linger over any area dropping intense amounts of water in a short period of time. Your home or business could be at risk for flooding.
Anywhere it rains, it could flood. Even if an area hasn't experienced a flood in the past, does not mean it can't happen in the future. Flood risk isn't just based on history; it can also be based on rainfall, topography, flood-control measures, river-flow and changes due to new construction and development.

NEVER drive through flooded roadways. STOP! Turn Around Don't Drown.
To prepare for a flood, you should:
On June 3rd, a wildfire was reported within the Verde Valley Fire District. It quickly reminded residents that even though we have had some moisture, things are beginning to dry out. The fire was caused by sparks from cutting a pipe; windy conditions quickly spread the fire and began to threaten homes.
Yavapai County Emergency Management conducted a fuels survey in the South Western corner of the county, revealing heavy grass growth along road ways. Significant summer temps will continue to dry out these grasses, and increase the potential for roadside fires.
The National Forest Service reminds us:
Each citizen has the responsibility to prevent human-caused wildfires and to protect their own property by creating fire-adapted communities and defensible space around their homes. The majority of wildfire starts are human-caused. Common ignition sources include power equipment, vehicles, and escaped debris burning. Many equipment and roadway fires are preventable with simple actions.
Vehicle travel provides opportunities for sparks and heat sources to ignite dry, fine grasses.
Power equipment like mowers, weed trimmers, and tractors can spark a wildfire when used at the wrong time of day, in windy conditions, or in the wrong way.
For current fire information and restrictions: www.wildlandfire.AZ.gov or call 1-877-864-6985
We highly encourage residents to sign up with the Yavapai County Sheriff's Emergency Notification System to be notified during emergency situations at: http://www.ycsoaz.gov/community/emergency-preparedness/ens/
IT'S TOO LATE WHEN TOLD TO EVACUATE! BE FIREWISE For more on being prepared, please contact YCEM 928-771-3321 www.regionalinfo-alert.org
May is coming to an end; have you prepared for wildfire season?
As the warm weather increases so does the potential for wildfires. Yavapai County of Emergency Management wants to remind residents of Yavapai County that, "It's Too Late When Told to Evacuate!" Be Firewise by having a plan in place before you are told to evacuate.
The Yavapai County annual FREE slash drop-off program expires on Monday June 1st. Please don't forget to take advantage of this program while you are cutting away vegetation 5 to 30 feet from all structures and removing all debris and dead vegetation from roofs, decks, and the ground around your home.
The City of Prescott will also be offering a FREE Slash drop-off program at the Sun Dog transfer station, each Saturday during the month of June.
Listed below are a few sites that can help you and your community prepare and become wildfire aware.
PREPARE- your property, family & pets – PLAN – who will you call, were will you meet, what will you take – BUILD A TO-GO KIT – food, water, medicine, personal needs etc. STAY INFORMED – radio, news, online.
Using the "Five P"s is a great start to make sure you don't leave anything important behind.
We highly encourage residents to sign up with the Yavapai County Sheriff's Emergency Notification System to be notified during emergency situations at: http://www.ycsoaz.gov/community/emergency-preparedness/ens/
