SEATTLE It's only been two fights, but it's hard to argue when Dana White talks about the old Robbie Lawler vs. the new Robbie Lawler.
Lawler (21-9 MMA, 6-3 UFC) on Saturday knocked out Bobby Voelker (24-10 MMA, 0-2 UFC) with a vicious head kick early in the second round at UFC on FOX 8 at KeyArena Seattle. It was just his second fight since returning to welterweight after a long run at middleweight.
But those two fights the latter of which came on live national TV on FOX have been impressive enough to already have folks talking about where he fits in in the welterweight title picture. Sure, at 5-5 in his past 10 3-5 in Strikeforce, including a 185-pound title fight loss to Ronaldo Souza in 2011 few are saying he should be next in line.
But in taking out perennial contender Josh Koscheck in the first round in February in his return to the UFC after more than eight years away, and Saturday's highlight-reel KO of Voelker, Lawler now likely commands a fight against someone also clamoring to be next in line.
Before the news conference, the crew on the UFC's post-fight show on FUEL TV brought Lawler on and asked if he'd be interested in a fight with Rory MacDonald, who employed the most cautious approach he's shown yet in the UFC to beat Jake Ellenberger right after Lawler's exciting finish.Quote:
"I'm going to fight whoever they put in front of me, and I'm ready to go," Lawler said at Saturday's post-event news conference in Seattle. "I'll talk to Dana, talk to (UFC matchmaker) Joe Silva and talk to my manager and figure out who I'm fighting next."
Lawler said he didn't watch MacDonald's win over Ellenberger, which was criticized by White after the card and was criticized by man of the more than 7,000 fans at KeyArena in the form of boos. But Lawler did say MacDonald's got skills.
Whatever has clicked for Lawler the past two fights, be it the drop from 185 to 170, be it changes in training camps and training methods, be it a sense of urgency as a fighter in his early 30s recognizing a career opportunity in his return to the UFC, the changes have been noticeable.Quote:
"He's a stud," Lawler said. "He moves around really well. He's strategic for sure."
But when Chael Sonnen asked him if MacDonald could take a Lawler head kick, the Iowa resident, who trained at American Top Team for his latest win, was confident in his reply: "I don't think anyone can." When asked if he'd like to find out if MacDonald could take the kick, he said, "I wonder if he does."
Lawler has 86 percent of his 21 career wins by knockout. And though going 3-5 in Strikeforce was not exactly setting the world on fire, his three wins all were memorable. In 2010, he was getting brutalized on the feet by Melvin Manhoef, then delivered a right hand that shut that punishment down and limped away with his hand raised. Later that year, he stopped Matt Lindland with a punch 50 seconds into the fight. In 2012, after back-to-back losses to Souza and Tim Kennedy, he stopped Adlan Amagov with a flying knee.
Exciting finishes has never been an issue for Lawler. But putting everything all together and going on a run in the past five years has been.
Just what that will translate to for the next challenge for Lawler, who spent years training with the Pat Miletich team in Iowa, remains to be seen. But it's pretty clear he has gotten people's attention.Quote:
"Lawler has been a fun fighter since the day he walked into this organization," White said of Lawler, who debuted in the UFC at UFC 37 in 2002, going 4-3. "The difference between Robbie Lawler now and Robbie Lawler then is obviously he's older, more grown-up, and more importantly, his head is in the right place. Robbie in the old days was a completely different person. He was just like, 'Eh, I don't care.' He didn't care about anything. Now he cares. He's a completely different fighter. When I saw him on Thursday, he was already close to weight. He didn't have to cut a lot of weight like in the old days when he would fight. He's just mentally and physically a completely different person. So I'm happy for him. I'm happy to have him back, and he's always fun."

Watts was pronounced dead by the Leslie County Coroner Greg Walker.
OMSL investigators interviewed other employees on Monday who were present when the accident occurred.

But we're terrified!
I'm a type 1 diabetic and developed HELLP at 35+5. I delivered our son by emergency section under general anaesthetic, he was in the SCBU for a week and I was on several drips/wired up to machines for a couple of days then discharged 5 days later. He is now 4 years old and just wonderful!
Anyway, I have a yearning for a 2nd child, so my husband and I have an appointment with the consultant at the hospital at the end of this month to discuss things.
I'm so scared though, does anyone have any advice or words of encouragement?

By: Cadence Acquaviva
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - A new study shows more seniors at food pantries and soup kitchens than 25 years ago, with emergency food programs evolving into supplemental sources for households needing ongoing help.
The study by Hunger Action Network, based on 560 surveys out of 2,500 sent in September to programs statewide, shows seniors comprising 20 percent of their visitors, compared with 4 percent in 1987.
About one-third in the new study were children. In the survey 25 years earlier, 52 percent were under 18.
The report notes less than half of program visitors receiving food stamps, though most are income-eligible.
About two-thirds of pantries and kitchens report a drop in food donations, though 89 percent say they served more people last year, and 40 percent they've had had to turn some people away.

Here are three simple truths about software development:
1. You can't gather all the requirements up front.

Those are the facts of life. But you can deal with those facts (and more) by becoming a fierce software-delivery professional, capable of dispatching the most dire of software projects and the toughest delivery schedules with ease and grace.

Comments and Reviews
IPRUG said:
I would thoroughly recommend this book to project managers, team leaders, and developers.
—Computing Reviews
This book is very well written. Rasmusson uses an entertaining writing style that makes it pleasant to read from beginning to end. What I like the most is the author experience. The way he presents the topics dealing with role assignation (chapter 2) and reality in agile planning (chapter 8) is simply remarkable.
Ron Jeffries said:
Coauthor, "The Agile Manifesto"
Jonathan Rasmusson has written a book for today that captures the excitement and value of what agile software development meant to us at the time of the Agile Manifesto. Look to the master, follow the master, walk with the master, see through the master, become the master.
FrazzledDad said:
Clear, well-written, and extremely useful. This book stays very focused on what matters in building a successful agile practice without being preachy or vague…I've read plenty of books on Agile. This one's definitely in the top three.

I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to understand Agile development on a new level. Even if you already use agile development in your software design, this book will help you understand and use the tools available to you on a new level.
—Joshua Kerievsky Founder and CEO Industrial Logic, Inc.
The Agile Samurai is the book I wish I'd read before I started my last agile project. The chapters on agile project inception alone are worth the price of admission.
—Ian Dees Software Engineer
Maybe a few stodgy, grumpy types will turn their noses up at the fun tone. The truth is they don't deserve a book this good.
—Jessica Watson Business Analyst Shaw Communications
The Agile Samurai is exactly the book you and your team need to understand and deliver using the agile method. It makes the concepts tactile for everyone from the highest level of leadership to the people pushing forward on the front lines.
—Wendy Lindemann Agile Program Manager
The Agile Samurai helps you steer an agile project from start to finish. No agile toolkit would be complete without this book.
—JP Boodhoo Founder Develop with Passion
This book was written with the insight and clarity that can only come from a person who has proved these techniques in the trenches. I have read many books on agile software development; this is by far the most engaging, easy to read, and just plain fun of them all. Get ready to sharpen that sword!
—Eric Liu Lead Consultant ThoughtWorks
If you want a guide to agile projects backed by real-world success stories and battle scars, read this book. JR brings us an easy and humorous read that covers almost any question you may have on agile and how to make it work. His content is sincere, simple yet comprehensive, realistic, and honest about common pitfalls teams will likely encounter. A great read!

Click Here to Watch the Whole Video in HD at Maverick Men
We love making videos of all the hot, fun times we have together, fucking sexperts, each other, and deflowering virgins.
Hey Guys, here's a video we shot last year on our very first visit to LA. While we were there, we got the chance to hang out with and get to know one of our biggest fans. Aj is a true MaverickMen.com lover and he tells us that strokes his HUGE beautiful ebony joystick to us every day without fail. He wrote to us all the time asking to be in a video, wanting to top Hunter or me (YES he is a TOP). We explained that if he wanted to do a video with us he would have to bottom. So he reluctantly agreed to be our eager little bottom hottie! Fuck yes it took lots of coaxing massage, wet kisses, sucking on his big beautiful thick cock and eating his sweet tight ass, but he eventually let us into his sweet bubble ass. Much to his credit; he took it like a man 'Maverick style'. After a while he actually LOVED it; he rode me so long and so hard my cock thought it had died and gone to heaven (penis heaven). 'CHOCOLATE CHERRY' is a pretty fucking hot video, if I do say so myself. There are several s

Caring for Life Cycles Field Trip Discovery Unit Teacher Survey
In order to continue to provide teachers, students, and chaperones with useful field trip learning resources, we would like to better understand how the Toyota Elephant Passage Field Trip Discovery Units and associated zoo programs have impacted teachers, students and chaperones.
If you are an educator who has recently completed the "Caring for Life Cycles" Field Trip Discovery Unit, we would greatly appreciate your feedback! If you have not recently used a unit, we do not need your feedback at this time.
The survey will ask you to reflect on what parts of the unit you implemented, the usability of the unit, how it impacted your students, how it impacted you as a teacher, and how Denver Zoo can improve future resources and programs for teachers and students.
The survey will take approximately 15-20 minutes. At the end of the survey, you may provide contact information to receive either a $5 gift card to Starbucks or one Denver Zoo admission ticket (your choice).
Thank you so much for providing us with your valuable feedback and insights!

Vacuum Cleaner Bags
Vacuum cleaning systems that offer the best cleaning ability – is that what you are seeking? It's also likely that you believe that cleaning ability is related to power or suction. Actually, it's not. While there's no single factor that determines the cleaning ability of the vacuum cleaner you use, understanding how vacuums work and how you can help maintain your vacuum cleaner to perform its best is important. Changing your vacuum cleaner bag is an important step in maintaining the efficiency of your vacuum cleaner. While most vacuum cleaners come with an indicator to help you determine when your cleaner's dust bag needs to be changed, you can perform a check yourself to see if it is over 50% full as that's when you need to replace it. Don't wait until the dust bag in your vacuum cleaner is completely full as it can reduce the suction and cleaning capacity of your vacuum cleaning system. If you use your vacuum cleaner frequently, it is recommended that you change vacuum cleaner bags once a month, especially if you are cleaning a large area over 2000 square feet or if your pet sheds a lot.
What you need the most when you are considering vacuum cleaner bag replacement is a bag that is well-matched with the model of your vacuum cleaning system. You can find original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or replacement type bags online. While both serve the purpose, that is enhancing the cleaning capacity of your vacuum cleaning system and providing you an easy way to get rid of all the dirt that you vacuum cleaner collects, you can choose one according to your budget and cleaning needs. At GoVacuum, we have got a vast range of vacuum cleaner bags from the biggest and the best brands around. You'll find them here at great prices and shipping offers. We are the vacuum cleaning system experts and can recommend the right bag for your existing system all while staying within your budget.

Mathew Brady, 1861
Already one of America's most popular photographers, Mathew Brady rose to prominence as a result of his efforts to document the Civil War. After the war, however, Americans turned away from the painful reminder these images produced, and Brady slipped into poverty before his death in 1896.

Should I buy an iPad?
"Should I buy an iPad?" is a question we're getting asked a lot these days at iMore, especially with the iPad 3 just around the corner. The holiday gift-giving season may have passed, but a lot of people who didn't get an iPad are still looking at them, considering them, and wondering if they should get an iPad in general, and get an iPad 2 now or wait for an iPad 3 in specific.
Should you buy an iPad?
Apple introduced the iPad as a device that sits somewhere between smartphones like the iPhone and laptops like the MacBook. They believe the tablet form factor combined with iOS software allows the iPad to do certain things better than either the phone or laptop. These things include email and web browsing, watching movies and playing games. It's not the phone you can easily carry in your pocket, small of screen but hugely portable. And it's not the laptop you need to put on a table and keep plugged in, hot and noisy, and overly complex for most tasks. It's a 9.7" piece of glass that turns on instantly, lasts for up to 10 hrs between charges, and is easy enough for a toddler or grandparent to use, but powerful enough to delight geeks and gadget-lovers alike. Apple truly succeeded in changing the game -- for the first time it's not about specs, it's not even about content, it's about the experience. It's about using it.
If Windows or Mac OS X frustrate or annoy you, and you just want something simple to use the internet and apps, you'll like the iPad. If you want to be able to curl up on the sofa or in bed and read an ebook or watch a video, or often find yourself on a long, cramped plane or train ride and need to get work done, you'll like the iPad. If you're the creative type who just wants a clean canvas to record music, paint with digital bits, or map minds with your fingers, you'll like the iPad. If for any reason a phone is just too small and a laptop is just too much of a pain, you'll like the iPad.
Should you buy an iPad 2 or wait for iPad 3?
iPad 3 is probably coming in March. While Apple doesn't always stick to their yearly product cycles, they stick to them often enough that a new iPad this spring is high likelihood. With a new iPad there come new features, usually at the same price as the old iPad. In this case, with the iPad 3, we're probably going to be seeing a double density Retina display, meaning 2048x1536 resolution in the same 9.7-inches the current iPad uses for 1024x736. So text will look sharper, more like reading ink on paper, and graphics will look crisper. The pixels will all but disappear.
It will probably also have an Apple A6 processor. Whether or not that means quad-core, it will certainly mean faster -- faster rendering web pages and much faster -- and hence better -- graphics. It may or may not offer super fast 4G LTE connectivity, and if you live in one of the relatively few areas that have 4G LTE, that might matter to you. It could also have better cameras than the current, rather pitiful iPad 2 cameras.
So if a new iPad is only a couple of months away, is there any reason to buy an iPad 2 now? Sure, if you need it badly enough now. If you need an iPad today, this week, or this month, then get it. If your netbook broke and you need a portable PC, if you're about to leave on a business trip or vacation and need a way to stay connected, if you're going to move from developing iPhone apps to iPad apps, if your child or significant other really wants one for his or her birthday, if your parents are about to be grandparents and you'd give anything to be able to place FaceTime video calls to them, get an iPad now. It's a great device, it has tons of great software, and just because a new one comes out in a few months doesn't mean your current one will spontaneously combust. Get it, be happy, and if the new one entices you, give or sell the current one to friend or family member and make the upgrade.
If you're still on the fence, if you're still undecided, check out the link below and then head on over to your local Apple Store or electronics retailer and try one out. Try out the web and the apps and the games. See how it feels and how it feels to use it. Then make up your mind. Chances are that within a few minutes you'll find out if you should buy an iPad.

Should I buy an iPad?
I sold my iPad2 to a friend in December to give to his wife for Christmas and since then I have really missed it. I use the iPad for work while in meetings and use it at home mainly to read news and surf, so I'm on the fence about getting another iPad2 or waiting for the 3. For what I do with it, it really is a toss-up.
A nice flow chart here to help you make the decision - http://forums.imore.com/ipad-3-forum/216057-people-asking-themselves-if-...
I'm waiting for the retina iPad 3, but if recent history teaches anything, it won't have retina display or A6, just a better camera and Siri integration. In that case I'll just buy an iPad 2.
Apple has been VERY economic in its upgrades, therefore to say we will "probably" get a retina display is a bit of a strech at this point. I hope I'm wrong, tough.
Have to agree here. We shouldn't be counting on a retina screen as a sure thing by any means. Apple could still upgrade the RAM, processor, maybe a bit thinner & lighter and improve cameras & add Siri. Which would make for a decent but not essential upgrade from ipad 2 and still sell boatloads overpriced.
If interested in 16gb one, i could see getting a refurb. The higher storage ones? Those will drop 200-300 after a new ipad. Best to wait.
Last year, the 64gb ipad one 3G was going for 529 at AT&T (even cheaper on ebay) after the ipad 2 was introduced. 300 drop. Expect similar this year as they try to move all the old ones out.
If your netbook is broke? Get another one. An ipad won't replace it.
I finally bought a 16gb iPad2 WIFI model from WalMart the day after christmas. No more than 2 weeks after buying it all the new about the iPad3 starts to come out.
Of course you only get 14 days to get a refund at Walmart.
I will say this though, the iPad 2 is very fast, does everything I want it to do, my daughter LOVES it (she is 5) and even my wife has messed with it a few times.(she hates tech) its dual core and the battery life is great.
I would have to imagine the iPad3 if quad core is not going to have as great a battery life, or will end up being heavier.
And as far as the camera, I use my iphone for pics anyway.
You cant exactly hold up an iPad and say cheese.
I love the ipad2 and will continue to get a lot of use and fun out of it. If the iPad3 becomes the 2nd coming of christ, I will sell my ipad2 on ebay but I just dont see that happening.
I Sold my first gen iPad and bought an iPad2 over the weekend knowing full well that the ipad3 will most likely be released in march. And the iPad2 will drop $100. Why?, because the A5 JB is going to be released any day now. I have a feeling it is going to be quite a while (if ever) before the A6 JB gets released. and I figure that new firmware that patches the A5 5.0.1 JB will come before the ipad3 is released.
I am an Android user, but I listen to Rene almost as much as I do to Phil and Jerry. His POV is 99% balanced and realistic about iOS and Apple equipment - fantastic job.
The specification of the iPad3 could substantially change the experience. For some a price drop iPad2 becomes a better choice, with more good second hand units on the market. All of that means the iPad3 HAS to be fantastic for me to go for it.

Charley Aultman's father, Anthony, died at the age of 74, just down the road in Black Creek. Aultman was 8 at the time.
Now 70, Aultman is working to piece together details of his father's life, which he feels he missed losing him at such a young age. From what he remembers, and what he has found in genealogical archives, Aultman has learned his father was a lively and colorful man.
Born around 1875, Anton, or Anthony, Aultman, or Altman, depending which genealogical and war records you search, was a first-generation American of Austrian parents. He left his childhood home in Wisconsin at the age of 12, and headed for Texas. This may seem extreme, but Charley Aultman says that's just the way things were.
"It was a different world then," said Aultman.
In 1898, 23-year-old Anton Aultman answered the call to join the U.S. Army as a member of the Texas Volunteer Guard in the Spanish-American War.
Details of his military service are foggy, but family lore has it that Anthony Aultman may have served under — and known — Teddy Roosevelt, who led the famed Rough Riders in the war. According to records, Aultman narrowly missed the boat, as the Rough Riders left the Tampa port for Cuba June 13, 1898, three days before Aultman signed up in Cleburn, Texas, June 16.
He was, however, on the military payroll before the Rough Riders' greatest victory at the Battle of San Juan Hill, just east of Santiago de Cuba, July 1, 1898.
Aultman has no records to confirm his father's involvement in that famed battle, but "a lot of the information about those soldiers was lost in a fire," he says.
What he knows was learned while sitting with his father and talking about his life and military service.
"I remember asking questions back then," said Aultman, such as, 'What did you fight?' He vividly remembers his father's reply: "Mosquitoes, mostly."
His son related the anecdote with a laugh, but at the turn of the 20th century, mosquito-borne illnesses were no laughing matter.
"Of all of the mortalities, 95 percent of those were mosquito-related," said Aultman of the widespread malaria and yellow fever.
The Spanish-American war was the shortest conflict in U.S. history at little more than three months, but it was significant to U.S. imperialism.
"The Spanish-American War set America up to be a world power," said Aultman, of the conflict that led the United States to establish holdings in the Philippines, among other places.
His father did not see that part of the world during his service, but he did see Cuban soil — though not for long. The war ended when the Treaty of Paris was signed Dec. 10, 1898, with the U.S. acquiring former-Spanish colonies of Puerto Rico, Guam, in addition to the Philippines. The treaty also gave Cuba independence from Spain.
Anthony Aultman and the rest of the volunteer cavalry were quickly discharged from U.S. service after returning from Cuba.
"Once Cuba was done, they discharged all of the soldiers to get them off the payroll," said Aultman, whose own father was discharged at Fort Ringgold, Texas.
Anthony spent years living in Texas before a twist of fate would bring him to Northwest Florida.
"Somehow he married a woman from here," said Aultman, himself a lifelong resident of Freeport.
Anthony followed his first wife to the area, but his son Charley was not born until 17 years later, and not to father and his first wife, but of his father and his first wife's sister-in-law.
After the death of his first wife, Anthony married his brother-in-law's wife, who had been widowed after the death of her own husband.
Charley Aultman was the product of that relationship and 8 years after his birth, he lost his father.
Today Anthony Aultman is remembered as a great man by his surviving family, and as the only Spanish-American War veteran on the Veterans Wall at the DeFuniak Springs courthouse.

It's a thing like not smoking in a restaurant. Doesn't need to be understood by the patrons, only observed.
My view of the explanation is that you cannot be overly cautious when dealing with the official message board of a global celebrity like Stephen King.
Most people understand and come to love it...like not smelling smoke while they are eating. :laugh:

A forum this large with so many users could get out of hand rather quickly. Sai King would have to employ quite a few moderators to keep things in check if comments were allowed to be posted without being moderated first. You would understand better if you ever had to admin your own forum or bulletin board. They can become full time babysitting jobs in no time.

Yes, and I will speak from experience here. I own a King fan site that does almost as much traffic as this one does. We have non moderated posting.
I have at least 10 moderators that are always busy reading the posts to make sure they don't fall outside our posting guidelines. It takes that many people to keep the place porn and drama free. :D

I've noticed that there isn't a handy 'welcome' button in the 'Newcomers please read' sticky at the top of the Newbies Forum, where it would be very handy.
Would it be possible to include this feature there, please Jordan? Thankee.

A interview I did prefight with SBG's Conor McGregor ahead of his Cage Warriors debut this weekend:Follow the link for the rest of the piece : http://blog.mmaratings.net/2013/09/t...ore-seeks.htmlOn Saturday night, top Irish featherweight prospect Brian "The Pikeman" Moore debuts for Europes premier promotion Cage Warriors against gifted grappler Dave Hill in Cardiffs Motorpoint Arena at Cage Warriors 59.
Brian Moore is a product of the illustrious Straight Blast Gym in Dublin, Ireland, where he trains under top coach John Kavanagh alongside top European talent, including Conor McGregor, Cathal Pendred, and Owen Roddy, though whereas Moores teammates have received notable acclaim from MMA insiders, The Pikeman has been quietly honing his skills across the burgeoning Irish fight scene.
Brians MMA story started back in his county of Wexford, a coastal county on the Southeast corner of Ireland, a county that is the source of Moore's nickname "The Pikeman." The origins of Moores nickname go back to 1798, when a cruel and unjustified reign of terror from the British government caused the people of Wexford to rebel against the far more powerful British army, and against all odds the men of Wexford -- armed only with their Pikes as weapons -- managed to defeat the British and take control of the county. Moore chose the nickname of "The Pikeman" to symbolise the "Never Quit" attitude of the Irish.
After training for a short period in Wexford, Brian decided to join Dublins famed SBG club, and since that day he has won almost every belt available in Ireland at featherweight. He is the reigning Cage Gods, Battlezone, and TuffNutt champion, and after he struggled to get a fight at his natural weight class, he moved up to lightweight to fight for the title in the Chaos Fighting Championship, a fight he won in dominant fashion against a far larger adversary.
Skillswise, Brian is notorious for being probably the best-conditioned athlete in the country, and uncharacteristically for a Irish fighter, he has solid wrestling. Just like all the pro fighters from the famed SBG gym, his grappling is top-notch, and in his last two bouts, hes won by submission in the very first round.
I asked Moore how a typical day of his fight camp goes, and he replied:

Up to [DragonFly] / src / sys / sys
Request diff between arbitrary revisions
Keyword substitution: kv
Default branch: MAIN
Add xio_init_pages(), which builds an XIO based on an array of vm_page_t's.
Add a new flag, XIOF_VMLINEAR, which requires that the buffer being mapped be contiguous within a single VM object.
Get out-of-band DMA buffers working for user<->user syslinks. This allows the syslink protocol to operate in a manner very similar to the way sophisticated DMA hardware works, where you have a DMA buffer attached to a command. Augment the syslink protocol to implement read, write, and read-modify-write style commands. Obtain the MP lock in places where needed because fileops are called without it held now. Our VM ops are not MP safe yet. Use an XIO to map VM pages between userland processes. Add additional XIO functions to aid in copying data to and from a userland context. This removes an extra buffer copy from the path and allows us to manipulate pure vm_page_t's for just about everything.
I'm growing tired of having to add #include lines for header files that the include file(s) I really want depend on. Go through nearly all major system include files and add appropriately #ifndef'd #include lines to include all dependant header files. Kernel source files now only need to #include the header files they directly depend on. So, for example, if I wanted to add a SYSCTL to a kernel source file, I would only have to #include <sys/sysctl.h> to bring in the support for it, rather then four or five header files in addition to <sys/sysctl.h>.
Clean up the XIO API and structure. XIO no longer tries to 'track' partial copies into or out of an XIO. It no longer adjusts xio_offset or xio_bytes once they have been initialized. Instead, a relative offset is now passed to API calls to handle partial copies. This makes the API a lot less confusing and makes the XIO structure a lot more flexible, shareable, and more suitable for use by higher level entities (buffer cache, pipe code, upcoming MSFBUF work, etc).
Update all my personal copyrights to the Dragonfly Standard Copyright.
Add the prototype for the recently added XIO API call xio_init().
Close an interrupt race between vm_page_lookup() and (typically) a vm_page_sleep_busy() check by using the correct spl protection. An interrupt can occur inbetween the two operations and unbusy/free the page in question, causing the busy check to fail and for the code to fall through and then operate on a page that may have been freed and possibly even reused. Also note that vm_page_grab() had the same issue between the lookup, busy check, and vm_page_busy() call. Close an interrupt race when scanning a VM object's memq. Interrupts can free pages, removing them from memq, which interferes with memq scans and can cause a page unassociated with the object to be processed as if it were associated with the object. Calls to vm_page_hold() and vm_page_unhold() require spl protection. Rename the passed socket descriptor argument in sendfile() to make the code more readable. Fix several serious bugs in procfs_rwmem(). In particular, force it to block if a page is busy and then retry. Get rid of vm_pager_map_pag() and vm_pager_unmap_page(), make the functions that used to use these routines use SFBUF's instead. Get rid of the (userland?) 4MB page mapping feature in pmap_object_init_pt() for now. The code appears to not track the page directory properly and could result in a non-zero page being freed as PG_ZERO. This commit also includes updated code comments and some additional non-operational code cleanups.
This is _SYS_XIO_H, not _SYS_UIO_H. Noticed by: ibotty
Initial XIO implementation. XIOs represent data through a list of VM pages rather then mapped KVM, allowing them to be passed between threads without having to worry about KVM mapping overheads, TLB invalidation, and so forth. This initial implementation supports creating XIOs from user or kernel data and copying from an XIO to a user or kernel buffer or a uio. XIO are intended to be used with CAPS, PIPES, VFS, DEV, and other I/O paths. The XIO concept is an outgrowth of Alan Cox'es unique use of target-side SF_BUF mapping to improve pipe performance.

Altvater: UM vs. OSU game has become irrelevantWritten by Fred Altvater | | firstname.lastname@example.com
Woody Hayes and Bo Schembechler are long gone. So too are "three yards and a cloud of dust," Hopalong Cassidy, Archie Griffin, Elroy "Crazy Legs" Hirsch and Bump Eliot. They are only fond memories to Buckeye and Wolverine fans.
The clamor for a national championship game and even a four-team playoff format beginning next year has taken the glitter off "The Game."
With Michigan falling on hard times, the Big Ten perceived as weak and the main focus now on the Big Ten Championship game, the Michigan/Ohio State rivalry has been forced to take a back seat in the national spotlight.
Michigan and Ohio State first played football in 1897 with the inaugural game being held in Ann Arbor. The series did not start out as much of a contest. Michigan dominated OSU 12-0-2 over the first 14 years of the rivalry.
The Wolverines won the 1902 contest 86-0 and the series took a sabbatical after the 1912 game. UM and OSU did not resume play until both teams had become members of the Big Ten Conference in 1918.
OSU proved to more competitive, winning three of four games from 1918-1921, but Michigan still holds the edge with a 58-44-6 overall record. OSU has been gaining on UM, however, by winning nine of the last 10 contests.
"The Game" was always held at the end of the season and annually decided the winner of the Big Ten. The victor earned that all-important trip to California and the "grand-daddy of them all," the Rose Bowl.
Most years, one or even both teams were ranked atop the national standings and the victor could spoil the season for the higher ranked team or seal a national championship.
The stakes were always high for a Michigan/Ohio State football game.
But with the proliferation of endless bowl games throughout the holiday season, even a trip to the Rose Bowl has lost its allure.
The Big Ten now holds a championship game after the Michigan/Ohio State game, which tends to make the historic game anticlimactic.
There is no league championship, Rose Bowl or national title on the line this year. It has already been determined that the Buckeyes will meet the Spartans in Indianapolis for the Big Ten Championship.
Unless Florida State or Alabama experience a loss in the near future, there will be no national championship game for the undefeated Buckeyes.
National Championship playoffs, endless bowl games and the lack of dynamic personalities like Bo and Woody have rendered "The Game" irrelevant.
Although it may not hold significance for the national college football fan base, there will still be devout Wolverine and Buckeye fans glued to their big screen televisions on Saturday afternoon.

New morning show 'Living Today' to highlight Toledo cultureWritten by Staff Reports | | firstname.lastname@example.com
By Kevin Moore, Toledo Free Press Staff Writer
"Living Today," a Toledo-based arts and entertainment television program, will premiere on WNWO 24 this fall. The new show will highlight all things Toledo, from the city's art scene to its local businesses.
"I think a lot of people living in Toledo are not aware of the rich culture right in their backyard," said Cori Rist, one of the show's hosts and executive producers. "They ask things like 'Is there anywhere new to eat' or 'Where can I go with my kids?' They think that if they want to do something fun they need to travel somewhere like Ann Arbor."
"Living Today" will air on Sundays at 7:30 a.m. before "The Today Show," and will be available for streaming through AOL's Console video platform. Every episode will be shot on location somewhere in Toledo to highlight a place of interest in the city.
"We want the show to be as interactive as possible between us, local businesses and the viewers," Rist said. "We'll go into, say, a local restaurant and they'll teach us how to make their most popular dish, or we'll answer viewers' questions like 'What is latest fashion to wear for a night on the town?'"
This interactivity is at the heart of the "Living Today" model.
"A studio setting is no where near as interactive," said Rist's co-host and fellow executive producer, Natalie Pohorecki, who as a makeup artist also hosts WNWO's "Makeup Mondays" segment. "It is one thing to read about going somewhere or hearing about it, but we want viewers to watch a segment and see the location and 'meet' the people there. The goal is for viewers to feel like they've been there."
The pair met in December 2012 during a photo shoot in Downtown Toledo sponsored by the beer brand Pabst Blue Ribbon. Rist, a veteran of the modeling industry, organized and posed for the event, and Pohorecki did the makeup.
"Living Today" will showcase roughly three businesses, organizations or major events from in and around Toledo each week. Each episode will end with a brief segment listing what notable happenings are scheduled for the following week.
Rist and Pohorecki have several plans to build the show's audience and get viewers involved with their programming.
"Local businesses have given us a great response and they want to be a part of what were doing," Pohorecki said. "We're going to have a lot of contests and giveaways. Many of the hometown staples are behind us."
The inspiration for "Living Today" is a desire for people to change their point of view about living in Toledo.
"Most people don't realize we have all the things you would find in a larger city," said Rist, who lived in New York City for 10 years working as a model. "We have farmers markets, wine tastings and a uniquely 'Toledo' fashion style that's coming from our growing hipster culture."
Toledo's economic woes are no secret, and the hosts are concerned that the city is too quickly discounted as a center for entertainment and culture. However, they recognize a phenomenon where people who leave the area often return to start their families. Both Rist and Pohorecki are Toledo natives who eventually returned to the area after moving away for a time.
"It's a great area for families with good schools and a strong sense of community," said Pohorecki, who previously lived in Ann Arbor with her husband for four years.
The hosts of "Living Today" know the kind of value that a media outlet that highlights small businesses can have from firsthand experience. Both women run their own local businesses. Rist owns a Toledo-based interior decorating and organizing solutions company called Simply Put Life and operates a website, MyItThings.com, that follows international trends in luxury living. Pohorecki is a nationally recognized makeup artist, having worked with such brands as Estee Lauder and Chanel, whose company Bridal Makeup by Natalie specializes in makeup art for weddings.

COLUMBIA Authorities late Saturday were investigating what they said was the defacement of a South Carolina state agency website, but they stressed that the site was not hacked.
WLTX-TV reported that an image appeared on the Department of Employment and Workforce website on Saturday evening claiming, This site was hacked.
Agency spokeswoman Adrienne Fairwell told The Associated Press that officials believe it was a website defacement. She said the image was taken down after a little more than an hour.
She added that no confidential or sensitive or personal identifying information was lost or stolen.
Website defacement is an attack on a website that changes the visual appearance of the site or a webpage, the agency said in a news release late Saturday. This can be compared to graffiti on a wall.
Fairwell said the defacement also occurred at about 12 other websites nationwide.
Information technology specialists were working on the issue late Saturday, she said.
We take this and any attempts to obtain personal identifying information and sensitive data very seriously, said DEW Executive Director Abraham J. Turner. Due to multiple levels of security the agency has in place, a more serious event was averted. We will continue to monitor, identify and eliminate vulnerabilities.
According to the agency, a malicious user defaced the agencys website at about 6:30 p.m. Saturday.
There was no personal identifying information compromised, the news release said. The DEW.SC.GOV website contains public information about the agency and the federal programs that it administers. Simply put, the user replaced one DEW website, the main page, with a message.
In mid-September, a computer hacker stole the tax filings of 3.8 million adults and 700,000 businesses as part of a massive security breach at the state Revenue Department. The state is paying Experian $12 million for one year of credit monitoring and dedicated call center operators. Nearly 1 million people have signed up so far. Notices to affected taxpayers began going out earlier this month.

The accidental educator: Author Mary Roach makes learning about science incredibly entertainingWritten by Jeff McGinnis | | firstname.lastname@example.com
"Stiff." "Spook." "Bonk." It's interesting how so many of the books by Mary Roach — the wonderfully offbeat writer whose nonfiction work focuses on fascinating and humorous taboos related to science — have a primary title that is short, sweet, to the point. Sure, the subtitle is happy to add more detail — "Stiff's" is "The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers," "Spook's" is "Science Tackles the Afterlife"— but their primary names are monosyllabic and blunt.
"Actually, it wasn't an intentional marketing strategy," Roach said in an interview with Toledo Free Press. "'Stiff' was just the first one, and 'Spook' was the second one, and then it became a pattern, so we stuck with it. Although 'Packing for Mars,' we couldn't come up with anything. Nothing. Everybody tried.
"Also, I have a tendency to not remember the names of — right now, I'm reading a book entitled … something like, 'Let the World Spin?' If it's more than two words, I can't remember it."
Roach's newest title fits right into her canon in almost every way. After spending tomes dissecting such delightfully gross subject matter as what happens to dead bodies and the science of sex, a cheerful tour of the digestive tract — from mouth to anus and everything in between — seems the perfect subject matter. The main title is, as usual, wonderfully direct: "Gulp."
Now available in paperback, "Gulp" (subtitled "Adventures on the Alimentary Canal") is another wonderfully entertaining read from Roach, who has carved out a niche as one of the most interesting science writers out there — a fascinating accolade, seeing as how she never intended for this to be her regular beat.
"It was not really a conscious choice. I seem to be fairly passive in my decision making," Roach said with a chuckle. "I ended up writing for many years for a magazine called 'Hippocrates,' which ended up changing names, and also 'Discover.' So those are two magazines that dealt with science and medicine and the human body, and I wrote for them for about 10 years or so. So that's kind of how it happened. It wasn't something I set out to do."
Arguably, though, Roach's relative naiveté toward her subjects works in her favor. In each of her works, she brings a sense of enthusiastic discovery to every fact she discusses, no matter if she's covering outer or inner space.
"I'm approaching a topic as a near-total ignoramus," Roach said. "I have this kind of naive wonder and awe at the things that I'm learning about the human body. I'll go, 'Oh, that's why when you get up in the morning you have to pee all of a sudden! It's the stretch receptors, and it's the fluid at the bottom of the organ, and … wow, that's how it works!' Where if you were a medical professional, you would have learned that a long time ago, it wouldn't really be of interest to you."
Certainly one of Roach's trademarks is her humor. In each book, she finds ways to bring her audience along for a discussion of topics most of us would have difficulty talking about in polite company — bacteria, corpses, feces, disease. And among the ways she gets around our natural distaste for such subjects is among the most basic: She makes them funny as hell.
"I'm definitely choosing subject matter that will enable me to do that, because it's more fun for me, and I assume if it's more fun for me to write it, it'll be fun to read it," Roach said.
Not that everything is a laughing matter.
"There's been times I've wanted to explore a subject where there really wasn't much room for humor, and in 'Stiff,' there was a chapter on the forensics of plane crash victims, and how the bodies can be used to understand what happened on the plane," she said. "A really dark topic. One of the examples was TWA Flight 800, and I thought, 'Those people could read this.' And it's not funny. So that's not a funny chapter. Sometimes it's impossible, or inappropriate."
No matter what her topic, though, Roach continues to find new ways to make her off-center subject matter both wildly interesting and engaging.
"I think that's part of what draws me to these topics — the fact that it is a taboo and that people turn away from it, so for that reason, everything is going to be surprising and fresh. Because nobody wants to really think about it or read about it, and then someone like me steps in and goes, 'Wait a minute. It's actually really interesting and weird, and you need to read this.'
"People kind of appreciate that you're just laying it out there. People want to talk about these things, they just don't quite know how. So you're giving them an example, which is just plunge in and say it. There's nothing to be ashamed of. It's all kind of miraculous physiology, in my opinion."

Hi there
I was told that baby was in the 87th centile at 19 weeks and at 27 weeks baby was in 54th. My OB wasn't concerned (but he isn't about most things) but my MW suggested a scan next week to check. I know it is generally when baby drops below 25th that it is problematic but am I being paranoid about the growth?
