Reports: Champ Gilbert Melendez still sidelined, out of January title fight with Pat Healy | MMAjunkie.comThere's almost no other way to put it: Here we go again.
Two months ahead of his title defense at Strikeforce's next card – and reportedly its last card – lightweight champion Gilbert Melendez has been sidelined again.
The news comes from Tatame, and UFC/Zuffa President Dana White said on a fan chat with the Montreal Gazette earlier in the day Friday that he believed Melendez was going to be off the January show.
Melendez (21-2 MMA, 11-1 SF) has been in this situation before. He was scheduled to defend his title against Pat Healy (28-16 MMA, 6-1 SF) in September in Sacramento. But when he injured his shoulder, Strikeforce canceled the card altogether when broadcast partner Showtime decided to not air the card without Melendez on it as its headliner.
And not long after that, Strikeforce's follow-up show, scheduled for Nov. 3 in Oklahoma City, also was scrapped when Frank Mir pulled out of a headlining bout with Daniel Cormier and co-main event middleweight champ Luke Rockhold also was sidelined.
The cancellation of back-to-back fight cards left fighters, fans and analysts wondering just what the future was for the promotion – and many speculated that the organization likely would fold, with select fighters being folded into the UFC.
But not long after the cancellation of the Nov. 3 show, Strikeforce and Showtime said a blockbuster card was being planned for January. And recently, details began to emerge of that show, which is scheduled for Jan. 12 in Oklahoma City at Chesapeake Energy Arena, site of the canceled Nov. 3 show.
Melendez again was to headline against Healy, with Rockhold vs. Lorenz Larkin in the co-main event and welterweight champ Nate Marquardt defending his belt for the first time against Tarec Saffiedine. Plus, Cormier is to meet Dion Staring in a heavyweight bout.
TMZ reported earlier this month that the event will be the last for Strikeforce, which would mean Melendez's career with the promotion is over.
Melendez trainer and coach Cesar Gracie told Tatame that the fighter will concentrate on moving over to the UFC.
"I think he never recovered from the shoulder injury and will not be able to fight in January," Gracie said. "He had a doctor's appointment this week and the doctor said that he will not be able to fight. We will focus on his recovery. With the end of (Strikeforce), he should migrate to the UFC."
Strikeforce and UFC officials could not immediately comment on Melendez's status. It is not known if Healy will remain on the card in some fashion. Without a Melendez-Healy headliner, the Rockhold-Larkin or Marquardt-Saffiedine title fights could move into the main event
And the January Strikeforce card takes a big hit, but id like to be the first to say welcome to the UFC Gill, your days of fighting the cans in strikeforce are over, and we will get to see just how good you really are

Hey BarlowGirl,
I was unable to watch your last session but I just watched the recording and let me tell you I was crying right along with you. I think I speak for everybody in that we will miss you dearly! I just wanted to say how much your music has touched my life in the past 10 years especially this last month. I unfortunatlly just lost my cat and grandmother both to cancer and mother is in the hospital for another back surgery so I have retreated to music where I have grown up. I just turned 15 and I have grown up in a house fulll of pain but also music and I love learning and listen to God through music. This past month though hard some of what has helped me to get through it has been your music because it sends a message of strength through my heart. I really can't thank you enough for your wonderful ministry and can't say how much we all will miss you! God has something amazing planned for your lives and I know he will lead you in the right direction!

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. --- The Chattanooga Mocs men's basketball team added its second signee of the early period today with point guard Jonathan Stark. Stark, 5'10", 160-lbs., joins the program from Munford High School outside Memphis, Tenn.
""Jonathan is a jet quick out there," Head Coach John Shulman noted. "He's very fast...very athletic at the one. He can handle it, distribute it and has a great mid-range game. He can shoot the three and he can dunk on your head.
"We are very excited to add Jonathan to our backcourt next season."
Stark played at Brighton in 2011-12 before moving onto Munford for this season. He averaged 21 points and more than six assists per contest as a junior after 10.7 points and 3.5 assists per game as a sophomore. Among his list of offers per various recruiting sites included George Mason, TCU, Lipscomb and Long Island.
Stark joins Christian Kennedy, a 6'10", 200-lb., post from Northside High School in Warner Robins, Ga., on the Mocs early signee list.

15-Year-Old Kylie Jenner Spends Thanksgiving With College Football Player Julian Brooks: Are They Dating?
Does Kylie Jenner have a new boyfriend? The 15-year-old reality star has fans wondering just that after she tweeted about spending Thanksgiving day with college football player Julian Brooks.
"Thanksgiving dinner #1 with this child @julianbrooks," Kylie tweeted along with an adorable pic of Julian giving her a piggyback ride. She then tweeted a photo of Julian sitting down for a Thanksgiving lunch.
A couple photos don't exactly mean they're an item, right? Well, take a look at this: After a fan tweeted directly to Kylie and Julian and asked if he was her boyfriend, Julian replied "Ya." Okay, so he appears to be a man of few words, but that seems like pretty solid evidence to us. However, Kylie has yet to comment, although she did retweet the conversation. Hmmm...
@kyliejenner 's boyfriend is banging ... #creepin twitter.com/jackiemclarke/…— Jacqueline Clarke(@jackiemclarke) November 23, 2012
So how do Julian and Kylie know each other? Julian graduated in 2012 from Sierra Canyon School, where Kylie attended before she started being home schooled. Both Kylie and her sister Kendall were cheerleaders for Sierra Canyon, while Julian played football.
According to ESPN, the 6'2'', 185-pound wide receiver has committed to play for the University of Nevada come January.

I know I've been ranting and raving lately, but here's another one.
There is NO way to completely remove the network connection icons in the system tray of XP. You know the one, the little computer with the red "X" (when it's not connected). For some reason, it is impossible to remove this thing without some pretty decent computer hacking. At least, I haven't heard about a way so far. The only way to really remove it is to actually disable that network adapter in the devices menu. But that's not good. I want the device enabled, I just want the icon to never be in the tray...ever.
What's even more confusing and frustrating is that if you go to the connection properties, there's the somewhat deceptive settings about this whole thing (see the last two checkboxes):
But that doesn't really work. The icon will still show up in various situations. I've read about it online, how it will never really go away even if you uncheck those options.
So, why? Why is this such an impossible issue? What's wrong with these companies? When did we stop paying attention to the little things that matter, and only focus on the shiny, largely useless features?

LOS ANGELES — Other TV series have woven a cast member's death into an episode honoring them and their character. But "Glee" has an especially sensitive task.
The Fox series will pay tribute Thursday to Cory Monteith, who was found dead in a Canadian hotel room in July of an accidental alcohol and drug overdose that ended his long, self-described fight against addiction at age 31.
Monteith's death is especially haunting given the character he played, a handsome Big Man on Campus with a sweet smile and big heart, one whose toughest problems involved dating and chastity or whether to align with glee club outsiders or the in-crowd football team.
There's also the uneasy knowledge that when Lea Michele's character, Rachel, cries over boyfriend Finn, it mirrors the actress' grief over losing her off-screen romantic partner. She dedicated her recent Teen Choice Award to Monteith, accepting with tears and wearing a necklace that spelled out "Cory."
Any real loss is difficult to cope with in the framework of fiction. But the deaths of sitcom stars John Ritter of "8 Simple Rules for Dating my Teenage Daughter" in 2003 and that in 1985 of Nicholas Colasanto, the bartender nicknamed Coach in "Cheers," were illness-related and less fraught in their translation to on-air tributes.
Some observers have suggested that the "Glee" episode should treat Monteith with dignity but not ignore the scourge of addiction that cut short his life – especially on a series that's regularly delivered life lessons on big topics such as tolerance within its song-filled framework.
Last month's Emmy Awards remembered Monteith, with "Glee" star Jane Lynch calling his death a "tragic reminder of the rapacious, senseless destruction that is brought on by addiction."
"Glee" creator Ryan Murphy has not offered detailed plans for the episode, but has said that drugs will not be the cause of Finn's death.
However, Fox Chairman Kevin Reilly told members of the Television Critics Association last August that the episode would deal with "the incidents involved in Cory's passing and the drug abuse in particular," and that public service announcements involving cast members would air with it.
One such announcement is planned, Fox said Tuesday.
Mike O'Malley, who played stepdad Kurt Hummel to Monteith's Finn, offered his take on the issue.
"He dies of cancer, in a car accident, he dies of old age, he dies because of a drug overdose. It doesn't matter," O'Malley said. "He's gone and you're never going to see him again, and so now you gotta go to work, you got to honor his life, you're trying to honor his fans' relationship with the character."
He said the episode included "the most emotional scene I've ever acted in my entire life," and called Monteith "a real bright light."
In a Fox promotion for the episode titled "The Quarterback," students are seen gathered at an ad hoc memorial display at Finn's high school locker, while another scene shows a weeping Rachel being comforted by glee club teacher Will (Matthew Morrison).
A mournful version of Bob Dylan's "Make You Feel My Love" performed by Michele is heard on the promo soundtrack. Other songs in the episode include covers of "Seasons of Love" from the Broadway musical "Rent"; James Taylor's "Fire & Rain"; The Pretenders' "I'll Stand by You"; The Band Perry's "If I Die Young" and Bruce Springsteen's "No Surrender."
"Glee" will take a break of several weeks after the Monteith tribute as the network airs baseball's World Series.

Actually most of them are doing quite well. Populations to match the majority of old games, turning profits, releasing expansions, getting updates.
As with any industry there will be some that don't make it, and as there are more and more games there will be more companies that make it.
But most of the games released in the last 7 years are doing pretty good.
Quit worrying about other players in a game and just play.

Now that Mmorpgs are so popular that everyone knows about them it's hard to get the same feeling that you got playing some of those old school Mmorpgs. I sorely miss the days of old school Everquest but i know that a lot of that is just nostalgia and i know that no game will make me feel that way again. Mmorpgs are in the mainsteam and they will propably stay there for a while. Its still possible though to have a good time in a mmorpg, you just need to surround yourself with players like yourself. I always find guilds of old school players to play with and it makes the whole experience way more fun no matter what game.

If you feel these games are not for you, you can always quit and do somethign else. I am perfectly happy to play modern MMORPGs.
And they are not likely to die with 47+M MMO players in the US.

I couldnt care less what happenes to the mmoprg genre, all I want is to see some of the Pre-wow type of MMO's. Theres obviously a market for the single player onlie rpg (SPORPG) games, games like SWTOR and GW2 just proves that. They sell tons of box copies, but dammint I could teach a monkey to play those games, to me nothing is more repulsive than easy mode games.

The current industry model needs to die where large development companies pump out templated games with little or no true rpg gaming ambition. Voting with you wallet will be the only way to get these crap games off the market. Companies jumping on the mmo bandwagon is ruining the genre.
The very fact many of these companies and games are failing proves the genre cannot support so many released mmos. There will be sub-genres and mmos of man types but good games will only ever come from companies backed by gaming passion and vision. The current mega-corp absorptions of smaller indi-developers has to stop. Those same mega-corps simply have to shrink themselves which luckily we are seeing. The audience will always be there but that same audience absolutely must vote with their wallets and voice their concerns.
What is happening in the industry is that the wants of the original mmorpg audience are being ignored. Attracting new players from other genres has been the focus of the developers. This has been a major failing for most companies. Mmorpgs require players who are willing to invest long periods of time in their game of choice. They play few games outside of it. New mmos grant ease of access and very easy progression which is counterintuitive to why players originally played rpg's. They played them because they were hard and took time and not because they were easy. Once mmos lost their connection to traditional rpgs the genre lost it's focus.
One example of this is actually with the classic rog game D&D. WotC bought TSR and the D&D franchise and continued a successful product with it's 3rd edition revisions. The company then did something extremely odd ... they completely reinvented the game with it's 4th edition and turned it into a tabletop strategy game in order to support it's miniature lines and possible licensing to video games with it's far more tactical rulesets. 1st, 2nd and 3rd edition (and d20 open licensed games) players were outraged. The forums turned into nothing more than min/max threads about how to build the pefect dps or tankers when it used to once be about lore, rp gaming experiences and general class building. Simply talking about rp elements, crafting and story was met with all the arguments and trolling you would normally see on mmo or even fps/strategy forums.
During this time a totally different company continued to publish their d20 open game license rulesets by the name of Pathfinder. This started to become so popular that WotC recently discovered that nearly the ENTIRE D&D fanbase which they once owned was now playing Pathfinder and that the core playerbase of 4th edition D&D was largely an entirely new audience (stragic gamers). WotC effectively lost their market share of a game that once dominated the rpg industry.
The result: WotC did an entire about face. They put out a new company mission statement that flat out apologized to their previous fans, admitted they screwed up and were now devoting their entire focus on a new edition (D&D Next ... sound familiar? There is also EQNext coming from SOE) without an edition number in order to re-envision and reinvent the brand name they lost touch of. They rebuilt their D&D website from the ground up focusing on the rp elements and experience of the game, re-published and packaged the 1st and 3rd edition D&D books and even put emphasis on teaching players how to play traditional rpgs once again through imagination and roleplay and less focus on hard rulesets.
Even Dragon/Dungeon magazines have been impacted as all new editions would focus on lore, existing published rules and monsters only (this was due in part to 2 issues being too many unbalanced, non-canon player material was being published and to generalize the magazines for all versions of D&D and move focus away from 4th edition). There is also nearly no direct link to 4th edition books. WotC is trying to remake history and wipe the existance of 4th edition out of the memories of their old core fanbase. They simply screwed up that badly.
What I see (and am seeing) is something similar starting in the mmo industry. Development companies are slowly waking up to fact they have been pumping out crap based on a model that has become completely detached from the genres original playerbase. The mmorpg genre is no longer a defined genre. It has been expanded and water down so much that few or no products focus on the original concepts that created mmorpgs to begin with. Few mmos have links to the rpg experience. They are collection of mechanics thrown together because an industry model tells developers they are needed. An actual virtual experience is no longer the goal. By virtual I do not mean visual. The core essence to traditional rpg play is creating a real world through imagination. That is the true essence of virtual world is ... complete and total immersion into a world you can effectively touch, smell and live in. In order to do this a player has to have complete control which can only be done through imagination. In mmos this means sandbox elements customized toward the vision that is the game. Templating a themepark where a player pays their fee to ride but has little or no impact on the world will never, ever be a true mmorpg. Ease of access and content devoured in hours or days instead of months or years can never be a true mmorpg.
What I hope to see is more companies failing and/or suddenly dropping upon their knees begging their playerbase forgiveness because of their lost ways. Hell if they are smart they will market it like SOE and make you think they are being revolutionary by making EQNext ... instead of actually hiding the fact they screwed up so badly over the years and lost sight of where they came from and who helped them get there.
I should add one thing as well: F2P model. There is great debate over this but I truly now believe that this is likely one of the greatest downfalls to rpg-style mmorpg games. We all know that many companies are converting their games to it and often see an increase in playerbase and income. What is now becoming apparent is that this is nothing more than a band-aid. It does little in the way of building community. Most f2p players are transient and do not invest the same amount of time as premium paying players who tend to have played the game much longer and contribute more time toward community building (ie. server events, guilds etc). A large portion of cash shop profit comes from newer players using it to accellerate their progression in order to catch up to players who earned their rewards through playtime and all the social benefits derived from this that can only be generated by time inventment. CS shortcuts hurt mmos in ways far greater than most are aware. Ease of game has hurt the genre more than anyone would have guessed. As implied earlier, todays mmos are no closer related to true virtual mmorpgs than FPS games are now. It's all about, "Give me my crap NOW so I can go out and kill with the best crap available!". Open ANY rpg book and that is pretty much the one thing they say you never, ever do or else the game is pointless. F2P is akin to metagaming which is the death of an rpg experience.
You stay sassy!

Aion was a complete flop in the west. Rift merged servers within months of launch. SWTOR was met with a resounding "hate to say we told you so". TSW is already in trouble. DCUO and STO both had horrible launches and only started to recover when they went FTP.
And I think it's pretty generous to claim that any of those games had the same growing population numbers old MMOs had. And even if it were true, is it really an acomplishment that a brand new MMO has less/equal sub numbers of games that came out when most people didn't have video cards in their PCs and were on dial up?
zerg difficulty just for the sake of being difficult, extremely long hours at doing anything meaningful and not getting rewarded for it so you have to run it ten thousand more times, having to listen to some snotnosed poor loser in his 30's living in his mom's basement because he spends too much money on multiboxing to actually move out, yell at you because he's got anger issues.....
Sorry, those don't represent the basics of mmo's for me or for majority of us.
My fondest memories were running dungeons, not for gear but for the story.
My fondest open world experiences were not spending hours doing dailies for rep but doing the open world quest chains that had alot of lore in them. (pre vo i know but still)
So saying that it was better when it was just starting out and they didn't really understand HOW they should make their games more fun for the players and often ignored people who A: weren't asking for handouts and B: should have had access to the lore in the first place isn't an accurate picture.
This is nothing but yet another thread from the dieing minority group known as the elitist jerks who spent all their days theorycrafting and with spreadsheets working out how best to raid so they could spend the other 9 hours out of their day wondering around PVP Zones or major cities so they could show off their fashion show. Nothing new imo.

Talk about boring.
Frustration? Yes dying sucked and that is a good thing, today this dying means nothing and is used as a quick port thing sucks.
Todays MMOs forgot about the Risk vs Reward.
Everquest had the Risk vs Reward down. The more risk you took, the more reward you got.
I wish the old days of MMORPGs would come back. If they did it would kill 60% of the population as they might have to use their brain to play a game for once in their lifes.
Games are about problem solving, always have been and always should be. No so much in today's MMO world, if you can follow directions, you can be successful in today's MMOs. No problem solving required which is what has been missing since WoW.

Celebrated pariah of MMORPG.com
Remember the video game crash in the 80's? I'm not old enough to have experienced it completely but I have read the reasons for it and I think this genre is headed in the same direction..
The amount of MMORPG's has been increasing greatly while the demand for them are actually on the decline after the WoW boom. And seeing as other genre's are basically adopting the features that many of us look for in our mmorpg's, there will soon be no need for the genre to exist because it would have been blended across many..
I think a total crash of the genre would be a good thing and would force a total reboot that hopefully would spark the same creative freedom that existed in the mid to late 90's..

Too many self-professed MMO vets still wearing those rose-colored glasses. Those games were not as great as we remember them. Really, they were not. The modern MMO is far superior, not only in graphics, but in gameplay.

Of course no one would play EQ1 or UO today as they are.............
What the MMO industry has to do is to update those concepts to 2012 standards with better graphics, better UI, better gameplay (less grind)
And yes those 2 games have each a distinctive selling point which current MMOs do not have, therefore they could be NEW material for the WoW generation

The Critical Hit Pretzel!
I wouldn't call it dieing... but It does in some ways make me wish the MMO market crashed. More so, I want publishers to go out of business. Games are being made for profit > Entertainment which is a terrible way to make games. Money should come in second with anything in the entertainment industry whether its movies or games. Having it be about profit makes games weaker.

Yes DDO and AoC did not do well
However SwTor sold almost 2 million units, pretty darn good. Yes they will be merging servers but we do not know how many people are currently playing.
Rift has done very well, definately making a profit, lots of people playing and funding another game.
LOTRO has done very well.
EQ2 has done very well.
Aion did not do well in the west but on the world market has done very well, one of the most played games in the world.
So yes most games have done quite well. Some haven't, some have.
Most games have just as high a population as SWG, Daoc and AC.
Growing population is a very good indication of success but is not the only one. Besides it really isn't realistic to expect a game to hold onto millions of subscribers, however they should be prepared for them.
Most of the games today have the same population as the old games. Not EQ good, but swg, daoc and ac good.
Quit worrying about other players in a game and just play.

The WoW model has been a thorough failure.
The WoW model has been very very very successful. But it may have runs its course.
We don't know they did spend 300 million, that is just a number thrown out by the forums. The most common numbers thrown around are 100-200 million, but 300 million is spouted by people looking to exaggerate claims to make a false point.
The only thing we know is they spent a lot. And it probably wasn't enough for them to keep the staff, however we dont' know how many they actually have now.
Laying off staff after a project is done is actually very common.
Yes Rift did have to merge servers. However as I stated merging servers after selling millions of units is not unusual. Nor would it be realistic to believe they could keep that many units. Rift does have a healthy population and it is funding another game, it is successful.
Nothing about Lotro has limped along. It did very well before f2p and by all accounts is doing in better after f2p. Definately better than most pre 2004 MMO's, not EQ or UO, but better than the others. In 2010 Lotro was reputed to be the 3rd most played MMO by the NDP group
EQ2 may not have started as a WoW clone but it went through a number of changes since then. Today it is as much a WoW clone as any of the others. Which means it isn't because the word is stupid. EQ2 has as much in common with WoW as those other games.
So yes most games have done well. You are just too full of hate to recognize it.
Yes growing populations are the primary marker, but several early games did not have continuously growing populations either, Daoc for one. Stable populations and profit are also strong indicatorsm and many/most have done that. It is not realistic to expect a game to sustain millions of subscribers. So the game will lose subs from the initial launch. Expecting anything else is just foolish. But not planning for a lot on launch is also foolish.Yes it would be nice to have more. But the gamers
Quit worrying about other players in a game and just play.

Rose colored glasses everywhere. The old MMORPG model would not do well with how players have changed since then. And most likely the genre would just cease to exist if they stoped being profitable.

By brnnnblacker from USA on 2008-06-30 09:08:23Things I liked:Light, easy to cock. Brought it to a friends house this past weekend and baited rats all night. Took one through the head at about 20 yards. Really nice gun!!
Things I would have changed:Better scope. I bought the Leapers Master Sniper Scope and it works great with this gun.
What others should know:The trigger pull was really stiff out of the box but after you shoot it a lot it starts to loosen up for you.

By John from USA on 2012-11-20 01:01:35Things I liked:easy to cock, the counter sunk breach (did not have to worry about damaging the pellet skirt when closeing the breach), weight and very quiet with lead pellets
Things I would have changed:Quality control needs to be better. The scope stop hole was off center and so the scope ring is not strait and my scope had to be adjusted A LOT to the right.
What others should know:This rifle shoots FAST about 1250 with lead free and between 1000 and 1100 with lead. This is very quiet with lead but sounds like a 22 rimfire with lead free. The accuracy was fine with in 20 yards about 3/8 of an inch, at 30 it opened up to almost 9/10 of an inch and at 50 it was more that 2 feet. Tried all kind of pellets but no luck. So within 20 its fine. Out of 20 yards not so great, but that is just mine I guess. Oh, and don't even try PBA the is no accuracy with them at any range.

To The Editor:
This letter is addressed to the Mad River Path Association:
Congratulations on 20 years! Due to scheduling conflicts, I am unable to attend tonight's meeting or this weekend's celebration.
However, I did want to send along my sincere thanks to the volunteer's who build, maintain and administer the path network; your work is vital to our Valley.
It is my understanding that completing the path from Moretown to Warren has become an important planning goal of the MRV Planning District and other local planners. That is great news! Combined with recent and ongoing efforts establishing a Mad River Byway, there is more momentum towards developing a comprehensive corridor management plan, including a non-motorized path network, than ever before.
I cannot think of any single project that would have a more positive and lasting effect on our area than a Valley-long path. That said, here are my thoughts regarding what needs to happen to connect the dots and have a path that lasts forever:
Permanent easements need to be secured with real compensation to landowners. Good money, at or above fair market value needs to be part of the equation. Privacy fences and landscaping will be appropriate in many cases. And yes, even requiring a landowner to allow an easement (always with equitable compensation) should be seriously considered as a planning tool.
I do not propose the last part lightly. I am not a fan of heavy-handed government. But this project is like building a road or bridge; it is that important and it must happen. Therefore, local governing bodies will need to get involved. Town Plans and Zoning should be reviewed and amended with this in mind. It will take a majority of local voters and strong political will to accomplish and it will be worth it!
Residents and visitors alike will forever benefit from this great "public works" project.
With best wishes for another 20 years (make that 120 years!), I am sincerely yours,
Steve Robbins

DSEE Notes
From Brandonhutchinson.com
Unless otherwise specified, these notes pertain to a Sun Directory Server Enterprise Edition (DSEE) 6.2 installation.
Account Lockout
Assuming a Directory Server password policy of the following:
pwd-lockout-duration : disabled pwd-lockout-enabled : on pwd-max-failure-count : 3
What happens when a user enters an incorrect password 3 times?
- The operational attribute accountUnlockTime is set to 19700101000000Z.
- The operational attribute passwordRetryCount is set to 3.
Other notes:
- Additional failed logins will not increment passwordRetryCount above pwd-max-failure-count.
- Locked accounts and inactive accounts are separate. A locked account can still be activated.
How do you unlock the account?
What works:
- Reset the userPassword using an appropriate LDIF.
What doesn't work:
- Everything else I've tried, including deleting accountUnlockTime, passwordRetryCount, and RetryCountResetTime.
To reset the password to the same value that was used previously, assuming the Directory Server password policy allows it (i.e., pwd-max-history-count is disabled), include the full userPassword entry, including the password hash, in the LDIF. e.g.,
dn: uid=user1,ou=people,dc=subdomain,dc=example,dc=com changetype: modify replace: UserPassword UserPassword: {crypt}XXXXXXXXXXXXX - dn: uid=user2,ou=people,dc=subdomain,dc=example,dc=com changetype: modify replace: UserPassword UserPassword: {SSHA}XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Why does my SSH public key work when my account is locked?
From sshd(8):
Regardless of the authentication type, the account is checked to ensure that it is accessible. An account is not accessible if it is locked, listed in DenyUsers or its group is listed in DenyGroups . The defini‐ tion of a locked account is system dependant. Some platforms have their own account database (eg AIX) and some modify the passwd field ( '*LK*' on Solaris and UnixWare, '*' on HP-UX, containing 'Nologin' on Tru64, a leading '*LOCKED*' on FreeBSD and a leading '!!' on Linux). If there is a requirement to disable password authentication for the account while allowing still public-key, then the passwd field should be set to some‐ thing other than these values (eg 'NP' or '*NP*' ).
My guess is that because DSEE doesn't change userPassword to *LK* when an account is locked, the SSH server considers the account "accessible," and permits public key authentication.
The only way I can think of to disable this behavior is to require password authentication by setting PubkeyAuthentication no (SSH protocol 2) and RSAAuthentication no (if you allow SSH protocol 1) in sshd_config. This would be a backward security-wise, as you would use one-factor authentication instead of two.

My sister's iPhone 4 was recently stolen and we tried to use this app to find it. Unfortunately, whoever stole this knew what they were doing because they immediately shut off the phone and have not turned it back on since.
With that being said, a cool enhancement to this app would be the ability to show the last available location. I think this would be helpful (for the police) to try to find stolen iPhones.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.---Chattanooga Mocs senior Z. Mason (Nashville, Tenn.) had a career night propelling his squad to an 86-68 win over visiting Hiwassee. Mason tallied 41 points and 12 rebounds becoming the first Moc since Ricky Taylor (Jan. 27, 2011 vs. UNCG) to top the 40-point mark.
"Z. Mason was really good," Head Coach Will Wade said. "I thought Casey Jones played well. Outside of that, we really weren't very good. We have to hope this knocked the rust off and our exam break off of us."
Mason made 16 of 20 shots including three of four from 3pt range. Casey Jones (New Orleans, La.) tied his career high with 17 points, while Martynas Bareika (Kedainiai, Lithuania) added 10 points in his first start of the season.
Hiwassee also got a spectacular performance from reserve guard Howie Meadows from nearby Meigs County, Tenn. Meadows made eight three-pointers en route to a 26-point game keeping his team in the game for the first 20 minutes.
The Tigers led 36-30 on a Jeff Waggoner three with 3:36 to go in the first half. Mason and Jones combined for nine straight points including a buzzer-beating tip-in for Jones to send Chattanooga into the break leading 39-36.
"Our effort defensively was our most disappointing aspect of the first half," Wade continued. "Our effort was by-far the worst part. We couldn't guard the ball, and we let the shooter free the whole half."
The duo continued the run into the second half. It turned into a 27-7 spurt for Mason and Jones as Mason's 31st and 32nd points made it a 57-43 lead with 14:07 remaining. Anthanee Doyle (Holly Springs, N.C.) made it a 16-point game with a jumper at 13:30. It was the first basket for the Mocs not scored by Mason or Jones in 10-and-a-half minutes of clock time.
It would get no closer than 14 the rest of the way. Mason's 41st point gave the Mocs their biggest advantage of 23, 80-57, with 4:14 to play.
"We were better in the second half," Wade added. "I think they scored 11 points in about the first 11 minutes of the second half. That was good and what we should do, but give Hiwassee credit.
"They broke us down off the dribble, got us in over-help situations and found the open man," he stated. "They shared the ball and made the extra pass."
Chattanooga shot 56.1 percent (32-57) from the field including 43.8 percent (7-16) from beyond the arc. It won the battle of the glass 43-26 which led to a 22-4 advantage in second chance points.
Hiwassee's Meadows was eight for 12 from 3pt range. He hit five of his eight keying the Tigers first-half heroics. Justin Browner chipped in 13 points, while Joel Bailey added nine points, five rebounds, six assists and three steals.
Mason's night was pretty special. It was the first 30-point, 10-rebound game since Oliver Morton (1999-01) at Appalachian State on January 29, 2000. It is the only 40-point, 10-board game in the DI era (since 1977-78).
""Z wanted it," Wade said. "We had mismatch in there, and we emptied our playbook to him. He made simple plays, and Casey did too. Casey just drove it to the rim and had a bunch of offensive rebounds.
"They played within themselves."
Chattanooga hits the road this Sunday traveling to Northern Kentucky. The Noon tip with the Norse can be followed live on ESPN 105.1 FM the Zone in Chattanooga, or go to the men's basketball schedule page on GoMocs.com for links to audio (free) and live stats.

The IRS receives thousands of reports each year from taxpayers who receive suspicious emails, phone calls, faxes or notices claiming to be from the Internal Revenue Service. Many of these scams fraudulently use the Internal Revenue Service name or logo as a lure to make the communication more authentic and enticing. The goal of these scams – known as phishing – is to trick you into revealing personal and financial information. The scammers can then use that information – like your Social Security number, bank account or credit card numbers – to commit identity theft or steal your money.

Anti-Casino Art Attack
A supporter of Casino Free Philadelphia is currently running a big ol' anti-casino art contest; they're looking for t-shirts, posters and videos. The deadline has been extended to March 10, so get cracking if you want your shirt to possibly join this other classy/hilarious one.
It's going to be tough to win the poster contest, though, because this entry posted on the site is incredibly awesome:
"Casino"-like Slots Barn is excellent, as is the impressive amount of detail in this poster. As usual, I am jealous of someone who can draw. Just think of all the bad jokes I could make if I could draw!
I can't tell, though, if it's saying the casino would ruin Market East (the Funk-O-Mart will never be the same with a casino nearby!) or that The Gallery ruined Market East (could make a convincing case for it, especially if Chinatown is part of Market East). But, hey, what's with the bullet holes? The only thing shot at The Gallery is good taste.
I also particularly liked "hookers' entrance." Is that really any more blatant than the current signage on the brothels in that area?
Update: The artist, FYI, is Dennis Carlisle.

text: Simmer is described as a "burnt rose with peach/gold pearl." It's a brightened, pink-coral with gold shimmer. The majority of the color is coming from the red bits, and this is extremely pigmented, so I would use a lot less than you expect and build up. If used very lightly, it only emphasizes pores in a minor way (not too noticeable by others, only if you look in the mirror), but as the color builds up, so does the metallic-like shimmer, which was unforgiving if you don't have perfectly smooth skin. It lasted six and a half hours on me, and then it was faded and somewhat patchy after eight hours. Tom Ford Flush is more orange. theBalm Frat Boy is more matte. NARS Deep Throat is more muted. NARS Amour is more matte. MAC Star Wonder is less warm-toned but somewhat similar. MAC Flaming Chic is softer, more muted. Benefit Bella Bamba is pinker. See comparison swatches.

Saturday, January 24, 2009
The evacuation pipe burst, flooding the communal part of the basement with, well, to put it mildly, waste water. And as our building manager decided they could put it off over that first weekend, well, it kept flooding. Add to that a weekend of near-torrential rain, and you end up with this :
All of the following week, the building's plumber came and went - refusing to fix the burst pipe until the city sent their workers to find whatever had - and was still - clogging the pipe and caused it to burst. And it continued to flood.
Finally, at the end of this week, one week after the burst pipe was reported, we had the basement, now knee deep in waste water and seeping into the apartment owners' private storage areas, pumped for the first time. City workers came and started tearing up the sidewalk outside the building and complaining about how hard it was! And still no solution.
Today is Saturday, the water is flowing in so fast that it is once again knee deep, the guys came to pump the basement a second time and we are still waiting.
On the bright side, JP finally had the courage to wade through the s**t that was left after the second pumping to check our basement area and came upstairs with the good news that our space and belongings were perfectly dry! And the sale of our apartment is right on track - the delay for the potential buyer's to pull out of the sale with no penalty has passed. Hopefully they won't ever discover about the flood in the basement!
Now what kind of cake to make for myself for my birthday?

Aeroentropy : Hardy har har! Very cute, but you are probably right!
As it turns out the problem is not solved and is turning out to be a Gordeon's knot : literally. All the city plumbing pipes in our area are all knotted up up in a big lump under the building, the ones played down in the 1860s and the post-war ones. And we seem to be on the groundwater fault line.... and they are still pumping.

Our Medium Size Bodywork Mat - About the Size of a Twin Size Mattress!
The Shiatsu Massage Mat is a medium-size bodywork mat. We offer 2 types of fill and several color options for the removable cotton twill cover. The cover has a large zipper for easy removal and the cover is washable. The mat comes with standard cotton batting, which has been grown using common agricultural practices and is treated per industry standards for pests. It is not treated with flame retardants. The cotton batting is enclosed in standard linen fabric to contain the cotton batting when the zippered cover is removed.
The optional Organic cotton batting is untreated and virtually odor free. It is enclosed in organic cotton linen. However, in order to keep the cost low, the Cotton Twill cover is NOT organic. It can be washed to remove any pesticide treatments.
An optional poly foam fill is available. This option was created with the traveling massage therapist in mind. While it is not as thick as the cotton batting mats, it is nearly half the weight and easier to transport.
All our mats come standard with a cotton web strap and quick-release buckles. The strap will secure the mat into a roll, "C" fold or "Z" fold. The strap doubles as a shoulder strap so you can carry your mat.

Over the past few months I have been writing little bios about my ancestors and posting them to this blog. I was working on the children of my 2x Great Grandparents and had one left to do. It was for their youngest son Francis Manley and I finally finished it and posted it on Monday. On a side note I had gone to Toronto the day before specifically to find and photograph the gravestone of Francis' son William.
On Wednesday I sent her a descendant list of Francis and Amelia so that she would be able to fill in their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, along with a few pics.
I gave her the news of who I am and how I fit into this family. The next email she sent had ''Unbelievable'' in the subject line. She told me that she and Jinny had been BEST friends all through elementary and high school. They had lost touch after Jinny got married and moved away but had seen each other over the years when Jinny came home for visits. The last time was in 2002 when my Aunt Mary (Jinny's mom) passed away. She had so many great memories of their childhood together and said she would treasure the picture that I sent her. She also said that Jinny would be LOL'ing in heaven about how we found each other.
My beautiful, funny, cousin Jinny passed away (way too young) just over 3 years ago. It's been great talking to Cathy about her and I look forward to many more chats. She and Jinny weren't 2nd cousins after all (Jinny is descended from Frank's brother and Cathy is descended from Amelia's brother) but they certainly share common cousins. They came from such a small town it wouldn't surprise me if there is a relation there somewhere. I already have one or two possibilities in mind. We'll have to meet for coffee next time I'm down that way and chat some more. And all of this, because she googled the name of a priest who isn't even related to either one of us.
I call that 'Serendipity'.
