built in backup software?
I was talking to a Best Buy clerk today about external harddrives. I was lamenting the fact that most externals come with backup software (especially one-touch) that only works with windows, and he seemed to think that OSX Tiger had built in backup software. I've looked through Mac help and haven't found anything.
Does anyone know anything about any sort of built in backup software that would work with your average external?
If not, does anyone know of an affordable, reliable external with mac-compatable backup software?
Well, you can create a backup disc image of your boot or other drive with Disc utility. I've never done so though. There is always simple drag and drop.
Leopard (the upcoming release of OS X) is advertising something called Time Machine which facilitates backups in a number of ways, one of them being to an external drive as you described.
Unfortunately, it's only coming out next Spring :(
He might mean Backup which you get with .mac.

Upland Chronicles: Charlie Conner lived a colorful life
As a prelude to a centennial celebration planned for October, members of Pigeon Forge First Baptist Church have been collecting and sharing stories about ministers and laymen who have contributed to the growth of the church and community.
One individual who faithfully attended the church from the time he moved to Pigeon Forge in 1937 until his death in 1969 was Charlie Conner. Known throughout the region as the man for whom the famous Appalachian Trail landmark Charlie's Bunion was named, Conner also left his mark on Pigeon Forge.
Born Nov. 17, 1891, in Swain County, N.C., Charlie was one of nine children of Dock F. Conner and Margaret York Conner. All nine children were born in the big log house built beside the Oconaluftee River before the Civil War. His mother died there when Charlie was 4.
The Conner homeplace was a 300-acre farm that stretched up and down the banks of the Oconaluftee River across from the mouth of Collins Creek, about two miles from the present day Smokemont Campground. Charlie's grandfather, Rev. William Henry Conner, bought the farm from the Collins family before the Civil War.
Charlie's father was a cattle trader. He often drove his cattle on the hoof from the higher elevations of the Smokies, down the Indian Gap wagon road, through Gatlinburg, on down the crude path beside the Little Pigeon River to Pigeon Forge. Dock camped there many nights, resting for the two-day push to the livestock market in Knoxville. Since Charlie was the youngest son, from an early age, he was in charge of keeping the herds of free-ranging cattle out of sections where the bears were known to prey on the livestock.
On Christmas Day 1912, Charlie married Ella Jane Beck. The Becks also were a pioneer family in the Oconaluftee valley. A nearby mountain, Beck's Bald, was named for them. Six of their seven children, Ruth, Janette, Gladys, Charles Henry, Lucille, and Wanda, were born in North Carolina, while Charlie was working as a mountain guide. The youngest, Doug, was born after Charlie and Ella moved to Pigeon Forge.
Charlie had his own meat market at Smokemont, supplying beef to a lumber company and loading it on logging trains bound for the highland camps, where lumberjacks lived.
In 1929, a cloudburst dumped torrential rains on the Smokies, washing away the scaled soil from the western flank of the Sawteeth, leaving it with its rocky appearance. A few days after the cloudburst, Charlie led a group that included the famous author Horace Kephart and photographer George Masa.
When they reached the barren west flank of Sawteeth, the group saw a large boulder-like protrusion just below the summit on the other-wise sheer northern face. Charlie removed his shoe, revealing a badly swollen foot. Upon seeing this, Kephart was said to have remarked, "I'm going to get this put on the map for you."
Another, slightly different story, is told by Paul M. Fink in his book "That's Why They Call It… the Names and Lore of the Great Smokies," in which he wrote that one of the group, upon looking at the bare rock pinnacle, and knowing of Conner's affliction, exclaimed, "Well, that sticks out like Charlie's Bunion."
At Kephart's suggestion, the United States Geological Survey officially gave it the name Charlie's Bunion shortly thereafter. The mountain rising above Charlie's Bunion to the west was named for Kephart himself.
In 1926, Charlie's father, Dock, was finally able to buy a 115-acre farm in which he had often camped, on the south end of Pigeon Forge. With money earned from the sale of cattle, he paid $17,000 for the place.
After the Oconaluftee farm was acquisitioned for the establishment of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the Conner family started moving to Tennessee. In 1937, Charlie and Ella moved with their family to Pigeon Forge and built a home near the river. Dock moved in with them and lived the last 11 years of his life there.
While Charlie farmed and worked for the Bureau of Public Roads, Ella kept the home fires burning. She told her children and grandchildren stories about earlier days at Oconaluftee. One such story was about how she worried about Charlie when he was on a mountaineering expedition, and the only way she knew if he was all right was to read the Asheville newspaper. The paper reported updates delivered by a homing pigeon.
Having grown up in the mist of game hunters, Ella possessed culinary skills that she had learned as a young girl. "She could cook anything they killed and brought to her, and make it taste good," said her granddaughter Barbara Catlett. "She was the glue that held the family together."
Charlie and Ella shared 56 years together. After moving to Pigeon Forge they finished raising their family. The Conner family had been one of the stalwart families in the Oconaluftee Baptist Church before moving their membership to Pigeon Forge.
In the later years of his life, Charlie was frequently interviewed by newspaper and magazine writers about how Charlie's Bunion got its name. While the story was fascinating, they often missed an opportunity to question the man about other fascinating facets of his life.
Charlie Conner died Oct. 27, 1969, at age 77. In the eulogy delivered at his funeral, Rev. William W. Cope remarked, "A thousand years from now, even if he were not remembered as a devoted husband, a loving father, a trusted friend, a consecrated Christian, his name will be spoken by the teeming masses who will come to stand in awe before the majesty of the mountains."

Why Doesn't Sauron Kill Gandalf?
Gandalf is off-screen for a good portion of this movie. He's wrapped up in the continuing subplot of figuring out what's up in Dol Guldur. In a surprise to absolutely no viewers, the Necromancer turns out to be Sauron returned, and he easily bests Gandalf in a magic fight (for a great sorcerer, Gandalf sure does lose in magical confrontations in this series). The last we see of the wizard, he's cooped up in a cage, watching helplessly as an army marches out of Dol Guldur.
But why is he in a cage and not… well… dead? What reason does Sauron have to keep him alive? I would accept the explanation that Sauron wants to interrogate him, but no explanation is given at all. It seems an unwise strategy to keep a wizard alive, which is a mistake the bad guys in this series continue to make.
What's Going to Happen to the Black People in Middle-Earth?
During production of An Unexpected Journey, a woman claims to have been denied a role as an extra because her skin was too dark. In a possible attempt to rectify this, The Desolation of Smaug features two black extras during a scene in Lake-town. They have the distinction of being the first non-white people who aren't faceless villains whom we have seen in the entirety of the Lord of the Rings film series thus far.
Here's the thing, though. Once it's been established that this universe is in fact not completely lily-white, I'm going to ask what happens to that diversity. This is a prequel to the Lord of the Rings series, after all, where the good guys are a monolith of Caucasian-ness. If there are two citizens of another race in this part of the realm, there are surely more elsewhere. It's an odd case, caused by an increased sense of progressive awareness since the original films came out. Not progressive enough for them to make any important characters who aren't white, mind, but still.
How Does Smaug Know Anything About the Outside World?
When the party finally reaches the Lonely Mountain, Bilbo heads in alone to scope out the place and seek out the MacGuffin, the Arkenstone. He soon runs into Smaug, who seems more intrigued than disturbed at having a thief in his midst. The two engage in a verbal tete a tete for a while, through which Smaug is able to discern Bilbo's motives for being there. It culminates with Smaug taunting Bilbo with the thought that Thorin cares more for the Arkenstone than he does for Bilbo as a companion. The dragon also ominously speaks of a greater darkness that is coming, alluding to Sauron's rise.
Here's the thing, though: Smaug has been cooped up in this mountain for more than a hundred years, ever since he first took it. How does he know about Sauron? How does he know that Thorin is seeking the Arkenstone? How does he even know who Thorin is? Did he take time to bother learning the names of the dwarves' royal lineage before he charbroiled their home? No one could possibly have delivered any news to him, even if he were accepting of visitors, given that the mountain is totally sealed. Is there a seeing stone in the vast treasure horde?
What Was the Logic Behind Thorin's Plan to Kill Smaug?
The final fight of the film has Bilbo and the dwarves scurrying around the interior of the Lonely Mountain with Smaug in hot pursuit. Thorin comes up with an idea to fight the dragon: light the forges. That is all that he says, and just what this is supposed to do is not clear at all. Even as they go through the complicated steps of getting the forges running again, it isn't evident how doing so will help. The audience doesn't catch on to what's going on until the plan is complete, and the group sends a wave of freshly-smelted gold crashing over Smaug. But it doesn't work. Smaug shrugs the attack off, flying away with a badass-looking gold sheen.
But why did Thorin think that this would work in the first place? Smaug is a dragon. He breathes fire. He is a creature that is made for the heat. What reason did Thorin have to think that molten gold would kill him, or even hurt him a little? Hell, the dwarves even relight the forges by tricking Smaug into roasting them with his fiery breath. If Smaug can dish out that kind of temperature, it stands to reason that he could resist it.

Fascinating. We did expect and predict that Apple would bid. Like Google, it was a later entrant into the patent wars.

COMPLETE GAME NOTES | VIDEO | AUDIO (Fri. only) | STATS | TICKETS
The Matchups
The University of New Hampshire women's ice hockey team plays host to the University of Connecticut for a two game series this weekend. The teams face off Friday the 13th at 7 p.m. and complete the two-game series Jan. 14 (4 p.m.) at the Whittemore Center.
Friday's game will be broadcast live on the Wildcats Sports Radio Network.
UNH has a 31-5-4 lifetime record, including 1-2-0 last season, against UConn. The Wildcats have a 16-2-2 home record and had their 16-game home unbeaten streak (14-0-2) vs. the Huskies end November 2010 with a 1-0 loss at the Whittemore Center.
That loss ended UNH's streak of six consecutive wins in the series as well as a 17-game unbeaten streak (15-0-2) that dated back to the 2005 Hockey East semifinals.
In last year's three-game series, UNH recorded the shot advantage every game with an overall edge of 82-52. The Wildcats went 0-for-10 on the power play and UConn was 1-for-13 with the skater advantage.
Hockey East 10th-Year Celebration
The Women's Hockey East Association,whose inagural season was 2002-03, is celebrating 10 years of hockey during the 2011-12 season. In correlation with this benchmark, UNH will honor former players from the past decade at the Feb. 4 game against Boston University.
There will also be a special Hockey East insert each of the next five home games – beginning Jan. 13 and culminating with the Feb. 4 game – to recall UNH's top 10 Hockey East moments.
The State of New Hampshire
New Hampshire has a 6-13-3 overall record that includes 0-7-2 in Hockey East and 3-4-2 at home – 0-2-2 in Hockey East home games. UNH ended a month layoff Jan. 10 with a 4-2 loss at fourth-ranked Boston College; the Wildcats' previous game was Dec. 11, 2011 (8-5 home loss to Dartmouth).
The 'Cats are winless (0-4-1 with four consecutive losses) since Nov. 29, when they defeated Union College, 3-2 in overtime at the Whittemore Center. New Hampshire has played three games vs. ranked teams (0-2-1) – and also faced off against another team currently in the national rankings – since then.
UNH closes the regular season with 13 consecutive Hockey East league games; that stretch began Jan. 10 at BC. Seven of the remaining 12 games are at home.
The Wildcats slipped from No. 10 in the nation in penalty kill to No. 21 after going 1-for-4 against Dartmouth on Dec. 11. UNH was perfect (4 of 4) this past Tuesday at Boston College to climb back to No. 17.
New Hampshire remained unbeaten in overtime this season with its 3-3 tie against 10th-ranked Northeastern University at the Whittemore Center on Dec. 3. The Wildcats are now 2-0-3 in OT this season. Dating back to last year, the 'Cats are unbeaten in their last nine overtime games (4-0-5). UNH's last overtime loss was Oct. 9, 2010 (1-0 at Colgate).
UNH's streak of five consecutive games with a power-play goal ended Dec. 11 vs. Dartmouth when the 'Cats were scoreless on three power-play opportunities. New Hampshire went 6-for-23 (21.7%) in the five-game stretch. UNH has scored a power-play goal in 14 of 22 games this season.
The last time UNH outshot an opponent was Nov. 29, when the Wildcats had a 32-15 edge against Union (3-2 victory at the Whittemore Center). In five games since that one, the opposition has tallied more shots four times – UNH and Northeastern tied at 27 on Dec. 4 – with an aggregate margin of 169-117.
'Cat Nips
Senior goaltender Lindsey Minton recorded a career-high 39 saves Tuesday, Jan. 10 at fourth-ranked Boston College; that included a 15-save effort in the scoreless first period. Minton's previous season high of 30 saves also came at BC (Oct. 15, 2011) and her prvious benchmark of 37 was against Boston College (Nov. 28, 2010).
Minton has played each of the last five games (with three starts – Jan. 10 at BC; Dec.11 vs. Dartmouth; Dec. 4 at Northeastern). She appeared in just three of the first 17 games of the season.
Junior forward Kristina Lavoie carries a three-game point-scoring streak into the UConn series. She extended the streak to three games with a goal and an assist Tuesday at Boston College. Lavoie has five points (2g, 3a) the past three games and seven points (4g, 3a) in the last six.
Freshman forward Jenna Lascelle recorded multiple points for the second consecutive game with two points (1g, 1a) at BC. In the previous game, she scored three goals against Dartmouth College (Dec. 11 at the Whittemore Center).
Junior defenseman Kailey Chappell recorded her first career multiple-point game with two assists Jan. 10 at Boston College.
In the faceoff circle, Nicole Gifford leads the team in both wins (232) and total faceoffs (427). Arielle O'Neill ranks second in both of those stats with 191 faceoff wins in 300 draws; of the three primary centers, O'Neill has the top winning percentage (.637); she had a particularly impressive game in the faceoff circle against Maine on Nov. 25, when she won 19 of 23 draws; O'Neill also controlled 9 of 11 faceoffs Nov. 29 against Union.
Friday the 13th
The last time UNH played on Friday the 13th was Feb. 13, 2009. The Wildcats were 3-2 victors at Providence that day. It is the only time in the last five years the 'Cats have played a Friday the 13th game.
Wildcats in the Nation
Here is how UNH stacks up against UConn in the national statistics (34 teams; through Jan. 10):
UNH UConn
Offense (gpg) 26 (2.14) 32 (1.68)
Defense (gpg) 31 (3.86) 25 (2.91)
What Just Happened?
New Hampshire – without the services of defensemen Kristine Horn and Maggie Hunt, forward Hannah Armstrong and goaltender Jenn Gilligan – battled fourth-ranked Boston College on Tuesday, Jan. 10 and despite a career-high 39 saves from senior goaltender Lindsey Minton, UNH was defeated 4-2 at Conte Forum.
The teams skated to a scoreless tie through the first period, in which the Eagles recorded a 15-6 shot advantage. BC scored goals 1:43 apart – at 15:20 and 17:07 – to quickly build a 2-0 lead. Jenna Lascelle scored with 37 seconds remaining in the second stanza, but the home team struck 24 seconds later to take a 3-1 lead into intermission. UNH once again pulled within one goal, 3-2, on Kristina Lavoie's power-play goal at 10:11 of the third period. Boston College reestablished a two-goal cushion at 14:36, but then was whistled for penalties at 14:53 and 15:14 to give the 'Cats a 5-on-3 power play for 99 seconds. UNH did not record a shot on goal, however, and then was called for a penalty with 2:01 remaining.
Lascelle, Lavoie and Kailey Chappell accounted for all six points. Lascelle and Lavoie both tallied a goal and an assist, while Chappell finished with two assists.
BC finished with a 43-21 shot advantage. UNH went 1-for-6 on the power play and was perfect (4 of 4) on the penalty kill.
What's Up Next?
Following the two-game home series vs. UConn, UNH plays host to Hockey East preseason favorite Boston University on Jan. 19 (7 p.m.), then travel to Boston to face off against Northeastern on Jan. 21 (2 p.m.)
Right at Home
New Hampshire has scored 3+ goals each of its last four home games spanning Nov. 26–Dec. 11 and is averaging 3.50 goals per game (14 total goals). The Wildcats netted three goals in consecutive games against Princeton, Union and Northeastern, then potted five goals vs. Dartmouth.
Kristine Horn (4g, 4a), Jenna Lascelle (4g, 3a) and Nicole Gifford (3g, 4a) are the top point producers at the Whittemore Center this season.
In her home debut of the 2011-12 season, Lindsey Minton stopped 26 of 27 shots in a relief role to backbone UNH to a 3-3 tie in that Dec. 3 game vs. NU. She did not duplicate that success in her only other home game, as Minton made nine first-period saves but allowed four goals and exited the Dec. 11 game vs. Dartmouth with the 'Cats trailing 4-3 at the first intermission.
In seven games at the Whittemore Center, Jenn Gilligan has a 3-3-1 record with a 2.13 GAA, .896 save percentage and one shutout. In her most recent home game, Gilligan entered the Dec. 11 game vs. Dartmouth at the start of the second period with UNH trailing 4-3. She played the final two periods and made 16 saves, but allowed three goals and was charged with the loss in the 8-5 setback to the Big Green.
Wins & Losses
Here is a statistical comparison of UNH's wins (six games) and losses (13):
Win Loss
Offense (gpg) 3.8 1.4
Defense (gpg) 2.2 5.1
Shots (per game) 28.3 22.7
Opp. shots/game 21.3 32.0
Power play .300 .167
Penalty kill .906 .793
Captaining the 'Cats
Junior defenseman Kailey Chappell is captain of the 2011-12 UNH Wildcats, while junior defenseman Katie Brock and sophomore forward Nicole Gifford serve as alternate captains. All three were named to the 2011 Hockey East All-Academic Team.
Chappell logs innumerable minutes as the backbone of the Wildcats' defensive unit and penalty kill. She opened the 2012 calendar year by recorded her first career multiple-point game with two assists at fourth-ranked Boston College on Jan. 10. Chappell tallied her first point of the season with an assist in UNH's 3-2 overtime victory against Union College (Nov. 29 at the Whittemore Center) and recorded her second point of the season with another assist Dec. 11 vs. Dartmouth.
Brock is also an integral part of the defense and penalty kill. She has one point this season with an assist in the team's 5-4 overtime victory at Dartmouth on Nov. 6.
Gifford, with seven points (5g, 2a) the past seven games, has climbed to the top of the team leaderboard in goals (eight), power-play goals (four) and points (17); she is also second in assists (nine) and ranks third in both shots (57) and shooting percentage (.140).
Gifford, who recorded an assist each of the first four games, has tallied a point in 12 of 22 games with four multiple-point efforts. She scored three goals Nov. 26 vs. Princeton University for her first career multiple-goal game, and the three points also marked a personal best. Gifford then matched her personal best of two assists Nov. 29 against Union College. She had previously tallied a career-high two assists at fifth-ranked Boston University (Nov. 12).
Providing "O" From The D
Kristine Horn opened the season as a forward but has skated as a defenseman each of the last eight games played (began Nov. 19 at second-ranked Minnesota); she missed the Jan. 10 game at BC.
Overall, the junior is tied for the team lead in points (17) and has a team-best 10 assists. She is third in goals (seven), tied for third in power-play goals (three) and is second in shots (64).
Horn has recorded a point in five of eight games as a defenseman and carries a three-game point-scoring streak into 2012. She ended 2011 with a goal vs. Dartmouth (Dec. 11); Horn had tallied an assist each of the previous two games at Harvard (Dec. 9) and at Northeastern (Dec. 4). Horn recorded consecutive two-assist performances against Princeton (Nov. 26) and Union (Nov. 29); the two assists match her personal best.
Horn recorded her 50th career point (19g, 31a) with the second of her two points Nov. 29 against Union College at the Whittemore Center.
She opened the 2011-12 season with a five-game goal-scoring streak and has recorded a point in 13 of 21 games with four multiple-point efforts, including 1g, 1a against both Niagara (Oct. 1) and fifth-ranked Boston U. (Nov. 12).
Horn is the team's top scorer in Hockey East league play with five points (2g, 3a) in eight games.
Forward Thinking
Kristina Lavoie, last year's team leader in both assists and points, is once again one of the team's top point producers. Lavoie is tied atop the leaderboard in goals (eight) and ranks third in points (15), tied for third in assists (seven) and first in shots (70); she has two game-winning goals and three power-play goals.
Lavoie recorded her fourth two-point game of the season with a goal and an assist Jan. 10 at fourth-ranked Boston College; her previous multiple-point efforts were: Sept. 30 at Niagara; Oct. 7 vs. Colgate; Dec. 9 at Harvard.
She scored a goal in back-to-back games against Union College (Nov. 29) and 10th-ranked Northeastern University (Dec. 3). Lavoie closed December by matching her career high in assists (two) at Harvard and scoring a goal vs. Dartmouth.
Lavoie recorded her 50th career point with the first of her two points, a second-period assist, Sept. 30 at Niagara. She enters the weekend with 35 goals and 29 assists for 64 points to lead all active players in both goals and points (and rank second in assists).
Entering Tuesday's game at BC, Arielle O'Neill has eight points on one goal and seven assists, which ranks third on the team. She tallied two helpers in the Sept. 30 season opener at Niagara and matched that personal best of two assists Dec. 11 vs. Dartmouth. O'Neill also tallied an assist in the 5-4 overtime win at Dartmouth College on Nov. 6.
The Puck Stops Here
UNH has three goaltenders on its 2011-12 roster, but only senior Lindsey Minton entered the season with collegiate experience. Freshman Jenn Gilligan immediately challenged Minton for playing time and fellow newcomer Moe Bradley completes the depth chart.
Minton, who played in just three of the first 17 games of the season, has played each of the last five games and that included a start this past Tuesday (Jan. 10) at fourth-ranked Boston College in which she made a career-high 39 saves. She made double-digit saves all three periods (15-11-13) to surpass her previous season high of 30 (Oct. 15 at BC) and career high of 37 (Nov. 28, 2010 vs. BC).
Minton received the starting nod Oct. 1 at Niagara and stopped 22 of 24 shots to backbone the Wildcats to a 3-2 victory. It marked her 50th career game (48th start). In her second start, Minton made a 30 saves, including 16 in the third period, in a 5-0 loss at fifth-ranked BC. It marked the fifth time in her career that Minton finished with 30+ saves.
Minton played five of six periods (plus the overtime session) in a home-and-home series against 10th-ranked Northeastern University. She helped backbone UNH to a 3-3 tie at home against NU on Dec. 3; she played the second, third and overtime periods and stopped 26 of 27 shots. Minton played all three periods of the 5-1 road loss on Dec. 4 in which she made 22 saves and allowed four goals.
Overall in eight games (six starts), Minton is 1-4-1 with a 4.10 GAA and .871 save percentage. In five Hockey East league games, she is 0-4-1 with a 4.23 GAA and. .878 save percentage.
Bradley made a relief appearance three consecutive games spanning Nov. 13-19 prior to making her first career start Nov. 25 against Maine. She made her collegiate debut Nov. 13 at Providence with a relief stint of 28 minutes, 1 second and finished with 18 saves, including 14 in the third period, and allowed two goals.
In the two-game series at second-ranked Minnesota, Bradley stopped 11 of 14 third-period shots on Nov. 18, then made a career-high 29 saves with 11 stops in the second period and 18 in the third; she allowed three goals in that game.
Bradley made 18 saves in her start against Maine (3-0 loss). Her overall numbers include 0-2-0, 5.10 GAA and .861 save percentage in five games (two starts).
Gilligan, in fact, has more than just challenged for playing time as she has received the starting nod in 14 of 22 games. She made 21 saves in her Sept. 30 collegiate debut, a 6-4 victory at Niagara. In her next start, Gilligan stopped 19 shots to record her first career shutout in a 3-0 win against Colgate on Oct. 7. She made 24 saves to backbone UNH to a 1-1 tie against fifth-ranked Boston College at the Whittemore Center (Oct. 14) and then stopped a season-high 28 shots in the 2-2 tie at St. Lawrence (Oct. 21). Gilligan matched that personal best of 28 saves in a 5-2 loss at fifth-ranked Boston University (Nov. 12).
In the two-game series at second-ranked Minnesota (Nov. 18-19), she started both games and played a total of three periods. In the opener, Gilligan made 27 saves and surrendered eight goals in 40 minutes. One day later, she made 17 first-period saves and exited the game with UNH trailing 3-0 at the first intermission.
Gilligan's season numbers include a 5-7-2 record, 3.20 GAA, .872 save percentage and one shutout.
Immediate Impact
Three members of the freshman class have skated in all 22 games, while others have skated in 21, 20 and 19 games. Freshman goaltender Jenn Gilligan has seen action in 15 games (14 starts) and Moe Bradley has played in five games (two starts). Jenna Lascelle (6g, 5a) and Heather Kashman (5g, 3a) are the top point producers – Lascelle ranks fourth on the team in both goals and points – and Kayla Mork (1g, 4a) has contributed five points. Caroline Broderick (1g) and Brynja Bogan (1g, 1a) have seen significant minutes as part of the defensive unit and Jess Ryan has also patrolled the blue line. Ryan skated as a forward the last six games of the 2011 calendar year before returning to D in the first game of 2012. Broderick also made the transition to forward three consecutive games before missing the Nov. 29 game against Union; she continued on the front line upon returning to action for the Dec. 3-4 home-and-home series against Northeastern University. Like Ryan, however, Broderick returned to the D when the calendar turned to January.
Five A's For The D
The defensive corps combined to record all five of the team's assists in the 3-1 victory against Princeton (Nov. 26). Kristine Horn and Maggie Hunt tallied two assists apiece and Brynja Bogan had one helper.
The Wildcats' D tallied four of the team's nine points against Union (Nov. 29) with a goal and three assists. Horn once again recorded two goals while Hunt scored the game-winning goal in overtime and Kailey Chappell had an assist.
At least one blueliner factored in nine consecutive goals spanning Nov. 13 –Dec. 3.
A Matter Of Class
Here is a glance at the class breakdown (excluding goalies) with number of players per class indicated in parenthesis:
Senior (1) 3 (6%) 4 (6%) 7 (6%)

Scouting the Huskies
The University of Connecticut (Storrs, Conn.) enters the weekend with a 3-13-6 overall record following Tuesday's 2-2 tie against Union. The Huskies are 0-1-4 in the last five games with three 2-2 ties in that span; they also skated to a 1-1 tie vs Brown (Jan. 7) and lost 8-1 to Harvard (Jan. 3).
UConn opened the season with a seven-game winless streak (0-5-2) and also lost six consecutive games spanning Oct. 28 to Nov. 19. The Huskies are 2-2-4 in the last eight games, but they are winless in eight road games (0-5-3). They have been shut out five times this season.
The top point producers are Emily Snodgrass (6g, 7a), Kayla Campero (6g, 4a), Sami Evelyn (4g, 6a), Jocelyn Slattery (4g, 6a) and Maggie Walsh (1g, 8a).
The goaltending duties have been split by senior Alexandra Garcia and sophomore Nicole Paniccia. Garcia has 11 starts (12 overall games played) with a 0-6-4 record, 2.87 GAA and .915 save percentage. Paniccia is 3-7-2 with a 2.43 GAA, .927 save percentage and two shutouts in 12 games (11 starts).
UConn is winless when: falling behind 1-0 (0-11-1), trailing at the end of one period (0-7-0); and trailing at the second intermission (0-9-1). Connecticut is also winless in games decided by one goal (0-4).

Teams news: Bennett to make Rams history at Boro
Posted: October 22, 2011|
MASON Bennett is set to make Derby County history after being named in the starting line-up to face Middlesbrough this afternoon (3pm).
The teenage forward will become the youngest ever player to make a first-team appearance for the Rams, at the age of 15 years and 99 days.
He beats the record previously held by winger Lee Holmes by 169 days.
Holmes made his Derby debut on Boxing Day in 2002, aged 15 years and 268 days.
Bennett, from Shirebrook, has impressed for the Rams' under-18 side this season and was an unused substitute in the Carling Cup first round tie against Shrewsbury Town in August.
The highly-rated England youth international replaces Tomasz Cywka, who drops to the bench despite scoring in Tuesday night's 2-2 draw at Reading.
The only other change sees Lee Croft come in as a makeshift right-back as Russell Anderson is struggling with a tight hamstring, with John Brayford (thigh) also ruled out.
MIDDLESBROUGH: Steele, McMahon, Williams, McManus J Bennett, Hoyte, Bailey, Arca, Zemmama, McDonald, Emnes. Subs: Kink, Martin, Haroun, Tchuimeni-Nimely, Ogbeche.
DERBY COUNTY: Fielding, Croft, O'Brien, Shackell, Roberts, B Davies, Hendrick, Bryson, Ward, M Bennett, Robinson. Subs: Legzdins (gk), Kilbane, Doyle, Cywka, Maguire.
REFEREE: C Boyeson (East Yorkshire).

Mother Mother
Sweet Mother of mine
My love for you
Shall last til the end of time
the warmth of your shoulder
and the care that you give
is something I will hold
near and dear to me
for as long as I live
although this mothers day
is more different than most
behind all your smiles
I know you still miss Leebo
but things will get better
as time goes by
You know I am here for you
Especially if you need to cry,
Cry your eye's out
as most mothers would do
On this special Mothers day,
I'll carry the love of two
But please dont be sad
and please don't frown
because rest assured
and YOU know
Leebo is looking down
Laughing and smiling
with that big beautiful grin
thinking about all the great times
you and me had with him,
but this is the end of my poem
I'll make it short and sweet,
Happy Mothers day momma
From your Son's
Cody and Lee
this poem was dedicated to my mother on Mothers day and My brother who passed away this
past december

After reading the reviews on this site I decided to try this product. It DOES have a slight after taste but I got used to it. So far I've used it in cold drinks and it dissolves well. In all honesty, the taste is pretty much like Splenda to me.
Was this review helpful to you?

Each band saw tire is constructed of natural rubber. Bandsaw tires are 15% to 20% undersized to ensure perfect fit and are held in place on the wheel through a combination of tension and adhesive bonding. Bonded parts have immediate strength, but we recommend the machine should stand 24 to 48 hours for drying before starting.
Non-standard width bandsaw wheels may be accommodated by trimming off excess rubber tire with a sharp knife or razor. All band saw tires are sold as a single tire and prices are per tire. We recommend RT-AD 3M Industrial Adhesive for rubber tires 10 in - 20 in. and RT-ER Rubber Tire Epoxy Resin and Curing Agent for tires 24 in - 42 in.
Detroit Band Saw is a replacement parts distributor for many different saw manufacturers. Because each saw is comprised of hundreds of different parts, it would be nearly impossible to list every one.

most wii game have a update partition and would hold the update. now mario kart should have 3.2 but that is if you have got a real copy or even a backup of a real orgional disk. if you downloaded it from the internet then the iso image might not have the update as this could cause bricks. why not connect through wifi and update to 3.3? are you sure that the other wads are good wads and you see them in the wii channel manu and are you getting any errors when you try to run them?
Thanks for the answer. Unfortunatly I cant connect my Wii to internet so I have to find another way to update it.
What I dont understand is if I really need to update it to play a recent game. I have problems just with Wario Land Shake Jap that is asking me to update before to start. Im going to try to take off the update file from the iso. But does the game need a recent version of the firmware?
I solved the problem with the wad. I thought I had some region free wad but they were not

indieWIRE published it's TIFF Skip List today. Among the films included is The Coen Brothers' True Grit starring Jeff Bridges, Josh Brolin, and Matt Damon. It's another adaptation of the book by Charles Protis, not a remake of the 1969 John Wayne movie. Really, though how are you going to see the new version without comparing it to the old? The originally film was in no way perfect. But Jeff Bridges is no John Wayne, and let's not forget that this is the role that netted the Duke his Oscar. I'm sure the Coen Brothers will make a fine movie. But will anything live up to the iconic moment of John Wayne riding down four men, reigns in his mouth firing a Colt revolver in one hand and a Winchester rifle in the other?
I think not.

Meaning & Origins
Biblical name, borne by the greatest of all the kings of Israel, whose history is recounted with great vividness in the first and second books of Samuel and elsewhere. As a boy he killed the giant Philistine Goliath with his slingshot. As king of Judah, and later of all Israel, he expanded the power of the Israelites and established the security of their kingdom. He was also noted as a poet, many of the Psalms being attributed to him. The Hebrew derivation of the name is uncertain; it is said by some to represent a nursery word meaning 'darling'. It is a very popular Jewish name, but is almost equally common among Gentiles in the English-speaking world. It is particularly common in Wales and Scotland, having been borne by the patron saint of Wales (see Dewi) and by two medieval kings of Scotland.

Bodmin braced for jobs bonanza with Aldi set to move in
Posted: February 26, 2014|
DOZENS of jobs are set to be created when Bodmin's sixth supermarket opens along with other retail units – with work set to start in June.
Aldi are believed to be interested in the site for a new supermarket off Dunmere Road.
Developer Henry Boot is in the process of exchanging legal agreements with the chain in question – along with three other national retailers – to occupy the site to the right of Flann Microwave Ltd.
Bodmin's latest supermarket could be open in early 2015, with the developers also receiving planning permission for additional retail units on a nearby site, creating dozens of jobs.
"We are exchanging the legal agreements with the retailer in question to occupy 16,000sq ft of the total 38,000sq ft site, with three other national retailers occupying the remaining three units," said Julian Painter, of Henry Boot Developments.
"We hope to be able to make an announcement on the identity of the chain in a month and break ground on the site in June. We are talking to three other retailers to move in on the same site – we've had quite a bit of interest. Proposals are for outdoor or sports retailers that aren't currently in Bodmin. There are no units in the town centre big enough."
Access for customers to the supermarket will be off Midway Road and more than 60 jobs are anticipated. As a condition of consent, the developer will pay a contribution to local highway improvements.
Henry Boot also plans to develop on the former Invensys site next to the Group Travel depot, 150 yards further up Dunmere Road, but as yet no agreements are in place.
"We are still marketing these units and we are at a much earlier stage for this site than the one further down Dunmere Road," Mr Painter said.
"The plans are for a smaller convenience food store and a little bakery to serve the new Cornwall Council offices which are being built directly opposite, as well as a restaurant and a trade centre. It's more of a mixed-use site."
Mr Painter said the two developments will give the town a big jobs boost. "This is a good thing for Bodmin with new jobs being created and hopefully, new retailers moving in that don't currently exist in the town," he said.
The western area of Bodmin is being revitalised with work on the new £15 million local authority administrative centre off Dunmere Road beginning this month and Wainhomes developing a housing estate between Boundary Road and Dunmere Road, with new homes expected to be available by early next year.

WASHINGTON, March 16, 2006 New, modular brigade combat team units accompanied the U.S. Army's 10th Mountain Division on its third tour to Afghanistan, the division's commander told Pentagon reporters today.
"This marks the first deployment of the Army's modular force to Operation Enduring Freedom," Maj. Gen. Benjamin C. Freakley said from Afghanistan during a satellite news conference. Freakley is also commander of Combined Joint Task Force 76, based at Bagram Air Base.
The task force has more than 15,000 U.S. soldiers, sailors and Marines and about 4,300 coalition members, including Canadian, British, Dutch and Romanian forces.
The 10th's brigade combat teams are part of the Army's transformation into a more agile force with improved firepower.
About 50 percent of the 10th Division's soldiers are either Afghanistan or Iraq combat veterans, Freakley said. And around 35 percent of the 10th's people now in Afghanistan have seen combat there before, he said.
Navy, Marine and Air Force fixed- and rotary-wing fliers support the 10th Division contingent in Afghanistan. "This is a great joint team," Freakley said.
Freakley said the keys to establishing security and stability across Afghanistan are partnering with the Afghan National Army, the Afghan National Police, and the Afghan Border Police.
U.S. and coalition forces fight alongside the Afghan army during anti-terrorist operations throughout Afghanistan, Freakley said. U.S. forces also conduct operations with Pakistani forces whenever possible, he said. The 10th division also supports provincial reconstruction teams, which work to rebuild or improve Afghanistan's infrastructure.
"The infrastructure here is very embryonic; it's a tough infrastructure," Freakley said, noting that infrastructure improvement improves security, which is followed by reconstruction.
Freakley noted that U.S. forces in Afghanistan's eastern regions will come under the command and control of the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force in the fall. At that time "NATO will take responsibility for all of Afghanistan for security, reconstruction and helping with governance," Freakley said. "We think that it's a logical and constructive step in the growth of the international community's assistance to Afghanistan."

4.1 Main cultural policy issues and priorities
The main priorities of Romanian cultural public policies in the cultural field have changed in recent years. From 2010, the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage priorities are supporting the national heritage and contemporary creation, aspects that are integrated into the Strategic Plan developed for 2009-2013. Some of the medium-term priorities included in this strategic plan are: to protect and promote national heritage, to support cultural and creative industries and the independent cultural sector, to improve infrastructure, management of cultural institutions, cultural facilities, the potential of culture and cultural heritage and the decentralisation of decision-making and administration.
The Strategic Plan 2009-2010 included public policy on changing the organisation and functioning of legal institutions and entertainment companies, as well as exhibition of artistic activity; public policy on digitisation of cultural resources by creating a Digital Library for Romania; public policy on improving the quality of life in urban and small urban areas in terms of cultural services; a national cultural heritage strategy; and the strategy of decentralisation in the field of culture. The decentralisation process targets museums and performing arts institutions which are still subordinated to central authority.
The public policy planning documents include a public policy proposal for supporting creativity in culture, a strategy for supporting SMEs and stimulation of the cultural and creative industries and a strategy for enhancing access to European funds for culture (the information presented was obtained from the Strategic Plan of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage for the years 2009-2013).
As a consequence of these changes, the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage has started to modify its role from a cultural agent to an advertising, consulting and mediating factor.
In the development of the policy priorities, the main challenges that Romanian policy-makers are facing are:
Public debates about some of the issues described above include:

A reconfigurable, automatic test equipment system having a controller conted by a system bus to a plurality of IEEE-488 based instrument resource stations is characterized by automatic initialization capability including automatic address searching. Automatically initializable resource stations each include an initializing circuit cooperable with the controller and respective resource to zero in on successive characters of a unique identifier for each resource.
1. A reconfigurable, automatically initializable test system comprising:
test system controller means for transmitting and receiving data signals;
a test system bus connected to said controller means for conveying said data signals;
a plurality of automatic initialization resource stations connected to said test system bus, each of said stations comprising a test resource having a unique identifier, an initialization circuit connected to said test system bus, and an instrument bus for connecting said resource to said initialization circuit;
said initialization circuit comprising interface means, memory means coupled by said interface means to said system bus interface means, for storing said unique identifier of the associated resource, and microprocessor means connected to said memory means and responsive to said data signals for providing said identifier to said controller means;
said controller means being responsive to said identifier to assign a predetermined address to each said resource station for retention in said memory means, whereby said resource stations and said controller means are thereafter cooperative to effect a predetermined test program; and
said controller means and said initialization circuits being cooperable to perform character by character address searching by a successive-approximation routine that progressively eliminates resources from a listening mode as individual identifier characters are determined until the entire unique identifier of a given resource is obtained, the searching being repeated for each of the automatic initialization resources of the system.
2. A reconfigurable test system as defined in claim 1, and wherein said controller means, said resources, and said bus means are IEEE-488 based components.
3. A method of address localization in a reconfigurable test system including a controller, a test system bus, and a plurality of resource stations each having a unique multiple character identifier, said method comprising the steps of:
a. causing said controller to transmit a listen command so that each resource station of the system is placed in a listen mode;
b. causing said controller to transmit a comparison character to each resource station;
c. causing each resource station that has a first identifier character that differs from said comparison character by more than a predetermined increment to cease its listen mode;
d. successively changing said comparison character by increments added to or subtracted from the comparison character so as to match the lowest first identifier character common to the resource stations still in said listening mode;
e. repeating steps (b) through (d) for the second and subsequent identifier characters until only a single resource station remains listening;
f. assigning a specific address to that single resource station;
g. repeating steps (a) through (f) for the remaining resource stations until all the stations have had addresses assigned.
This invention relates to the field of automatic test equipment (ATE), and more particularly to the automatic integration of one or more of a variety of ATE instrument resources, notably IEEE-488 based devices such as computers, counters, power supplies, meters, printers, etc., into a system which is thereby tailored for a particular test procedure or series of procedures.
Traditionally, the large tightly integrated automatic test system has been used to increase the productivity of high-volume/low-variety testing-dominant operations and was built by a system integrator who combined various IEEE-488 resources via software and hardware to satisfy a particular user. Such a system usually had a markup of two to eight times the cost of the resources and was difficult to alter in response to changing user needs such as replacement of obsolete resources and test requirement updates.
Heretofore, it has been the practice for the user of an IEEE-488 based test system of the type having a controller that communicates via an IEEE-488 bus with individual test resources or instruments to manually set address switches in the controller to initilize the system. This presupposes that the address of each resource is known, and requires considerable down-time of the system to effect a new test configuration. U.S. Pat. No. 3,764,995 shows a programmable test system wherein automatic switching is accomplished by a relay matrix to configure a system having predetermined resources of known addresses as preexisting components of the system. While that approach allows some flexibility it is limited to the resources and configurations previously established by the relay matrix.
Attempts to apply ATE system technology to repair operations, for example of specialized avionics systems, have met with only limited success because the workload is typically low-volume/high-variety in nature and human intervention is dominant. The resulting set-up/tear-down penalties and human intervention aspects of the testing have rendered the test systems idle for inordinate periods of time. Accordingly, it would be desirable to have an automatically reconfigurable, on-line ATE system that includes an IEEE-488 based information distribution system that will make assembly and reassembly automatic test systems as easy and inexpensive as manual test systems are now, with all the advantages previously reserved to application to high volume production testing situations.
With the foregoing in mind, it is a first important object of this invention to provide a method and apparatus for use in an automated test system whereby the system is operative to effect automatic initialization, that is to say, automatic conditioning of the controller of the system to communicate via IEEE-488 bus with each of a plurality of IEEE-488 compatible instruments, or resources, in such a manner as to be able to carry out a desired series of test functions or resultant operations.
As another important object the invention aims to provide an automatically reconfigurable test system having a plurality of automatically initializeable resource stations, each comprising an IEEE-488 based instrument or resource connected by means of an initialization circuit to the IEEE-488 test system bus.
Yet another object of the invention is the provision of a system of the foregoing character that is compatible with other IEEE-488 instruments as non-automatically initialization resource stations.
Still another object is the provision, in an automatic test system, and as part of the initialization of the system of a method and apparatus for automatically assigning addresses to IEEE-488 resources, whereby the controller is placed in communication therewith for effecting the automatic initialization and subsequent test procedures.
Other objects and many of the attendant advantages will be readily appreciated as the subject invention becomes better understood by reference to the following detailed description, when considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating automatic initialization apparatus according to the invention in a reconfigurable on-line ATE information distribution portion of a test system; and
FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating the method of operation of the apparatus of FIG. 1.
Referring now to the exemplary embodiment illustrated in the FIG. 1, 10 is a test system controller, conveniently a Hewlett Packard Corporation model HP 9825. Controller 10 communicates via an IEEE-488 test system bus 12 with a plurality of automatically initializeable resource stations generally indicated at 14, 14', 14". Station 14 comprises an initialization circuit 16, an IEEE-488 instrument bus 18, and an IEEE-488 instrument or resource 20, such as a voltmeter, power supply, or the like. Similarly, the resource stations 14' and 14" comprise initialization circuits 16', 16", buses 18', 18", and IEEE-488 resources 20', 20".
The initialization circuits 16, 16', and 16" are identical, and the description of circuit 16 is applicable to each. The circuit 16 comprises an IEEE-488 driver 24, conveniently of type SN 75160/SN 75161, as appropriate, available from Texas Instruments and which provides the necessary electrical interface with the bus 12. The driver 24 is connected as shown by flow line 26 to drive an interface chip 28, conviently a Texas Instruments type TMS 9914A. This is a conventional IEEE-488 interface device that possesses the protocols such as hand-shaking, processing universal commands, and the like necessary to operate effectively on the bus 12 via the driver 24. The interface 28 is coupled as shown via flow line 30, an identical interface chip 32, and resource bus 18 to the IEEE-488 resource 20. The interface chips 28, 32 are further connected, as shown by flow lines 30a and 30b for data flow to and from a random access memory (RAM) 34, a programmable read only memory (PROM) 36, and a microprocessor 38. RAM 34 is conveniently a type 2114 of National Semiconductors, Inc. and serves to store temporary data such as the address of the associated resource 20, a controller assigned address, and pointers, etc. needed by microprocessor 38. PROM 36 is a 32K type 2732 of INTEL, Inc. and contains commands used by the microprocessor 38 to participate in the initialization procedure, while the microprocessor 38 is conveniently a mode Z80 of Zilog Corporation that executes the commands contained in PROM 36, processes data acquired from, and controls the operation of, the other components of the initialization circuit. The microprocessor 38 is responsive to a clock 42 that provides clock signals via line 44 and is conveniently a Motorola MC 6875.
It will be understood that more or fewer automatically initializable resource stations like 14, 14', etc. can be coupled to the system bus 12, and that, thorugh the controller 10, one can automatically configure a test system that will perform predetermined test functions within the capabilities of the on-line resource stations 14, 14', 14", etc.
In addition, the system illustrated in the Figure is compatible with, and is shown as comprising, a plurality of non-automatically initializable test resource stations 50, 50'. These stations comprise an IEEE-488 based test instrument or resource such as 42, 42' directly coupled to the IEEE-488 test system bus 12, without an initialization circuit such as 16. While these stations are not automatically initilizable in the sense as those having initialization circuits 16, 16', 16", etc., the test system of this invention can accommodate such existing resources not having automatic initialization capability, all as will become apparent.
In order to more readily understand the operation of the above described system, the following definitions and conditions are given:
a. Acronyms.
ATN=Attention Line
NRFD=Not Request for Data
NDAC=Not Data Accepted
SRQ=Service Request Line
DI01-DI08=Eight Data Lines on the bus
ROLAIDS=Reconfigurable On-Line ATE Information Distribution System
FSCM=Federal Supply Code for Manufacturers
ASCII=American Standard Code for Information Interchange
b. Two command codes are reserved for enabling a special ROLAIDS mode: Universal Command=18B, Addressed Command-02B. ("# . . . B" is the decimal equivalent of an eight-bit binary word.) Initialization can only be invoked by the universal command.
c. Address 15 ("/" character) is reserved for the communications link during the execution of a special mode and thus is not available for assignment to an instrument.
d. Each test resource 20, 20', 20" of the respective stations 40, 40', 40" and 52, 52' of stations 50, 50', has a unique identifier comprises of two sub-identifiers. This first sub-identifier is the combination of the FSCM and model numbers. The first five character locations of this sub-identifier is reserved for the FSCM number. The second sub-identifier is the serial number. Each sub-identifier is stored internally in a resource station terminated with the line feed character (10B).
e. The FSCM, model and serial number characters must be printable (32B to 126B).
f. DI08 Line-TRUE (OV) is a command to each test resource station to determine its future listening status; otherwise DI08=FALSE (5 V).
The bus orientation of the IEEE-488 interfaces requires that a unique address be assigned to each test resource station 40, 40', 40" etc. The controller 10 does this by setting all test resources to the listen mode and itself to the talk mode. It causes all resource stations except one to eventually cease listening at which time it assigns a unique address to the listening resource station and that resource station ceases to participate in the initialization. The controller resumes this selection procedure and unique address assignment until all the test resource stations have been processed. During the selection procedure, the controller 10 searches for unique FCSM-model/serial-number combinations stored at the resource station. The combination it finds is the one with the first character in the FCSM, model or serial number that is the lowest-valued one being compared to the current controller character. An example using a model number is 8000 for the two combinations of 8000 and 8502 because the character 0 is the lowest character found first. However, for the same FSCM number, it does select the longest model number. Example: 845A is selected before 845.
Specifically, and with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 2, the initialization procedure operates as follows. The controller 10 checks for any instruments or resources 20, 20', 20", etc. at address 15. If this address is found to be occupied, an error will be generated. It then sends the universal enable command (18B with ATN TRUE) which causes each resource station to set its listen address to 15, and it searches for non-automatically initializable test resources or instruments across the entire address space, excluding address 15. At each address (as was done for address 15 previously), the unlisten command (?) and the address are sent to the bus with the ATN line asserted TRUE. After the address is removed from the data lines, the ATN line is asserted FALSE and the NRFD line is sensed for the FALSE state. When this state is detected, the NDAC line is monitored for a TRUE state. If it is TRUE, the controller marks the address as occupied and requires the user to supply the FSCM, model and serial numbers. (This same procedure is used by the initialization circuit 16, 16', 16" of automatically initializable stations 40, 40', 40" to find the address of its associated instrument 20, 20', 20" except that the universal command of 18B is not sent, and address 15 is not excluded from the search.) Next, the controller initiates the automatically initializable resource station selection procedure by sending address 15 and the secondary command for initialization, 105B ("i") with ATN TRUE. Each of these resource stations responds by maintaining its listen address at 15 and points to the first character of its FSCM model number which will be compared with controller characters. The controller begins a resource search by sending address 15 to cause all non-processed resources to listen, sets ATN FALSE and then successively searches for each character in a FSCM-model/serial number combination. When the controller outputs a character, each resource pointing to a character that is smaller than the controller character asserts the SRQ line of the bus TRUE. All other resources release the SRQ line. For example, a resource pointing to an ASCII "A" will assert the SRQ line TRUE if the controller is outputting an "B".
The controller 10 starts each character search with the transmission of a 127B character. Since only printable characters (32B through 126B) are allowed in the FSCM, model and serial numbers, any listening resource will assert the SRQ line TRUE. If, following the last 127B character, SRQ is not asserted TRUE, no instruments are on the bus which is an error condition. Otherwise, the controller 10 begins a successive-approximation search by sending a 64B. In accordance with present invention, the search technique zeros in on the lowest character by subtracting an increment from this number if the SRQ line is TRUE or adding it if the line is FALSE. The increment starts at 32B and is divided by two with each new character outputted until the increment value of 1B is reached. At this point, the controller will be at the lowest resource character if the SRQ line is FALSE or one above if it is TRUE. If the SRQ line is FALSE, the same character is sent out again with DI08 TRUE. If the SRO line is TRUE, the next lower character is sent with DI08 TRUE. The DI08 TRUE condition indicates to the resources that they are to determine their listening status. A resource remains listening if its character equals the current controller character (excluding the DI08 state); otherwise, it ceases to listen and waits for address 15 to be sent again. The resource(s) still listening await the initiation of the next character search.
The above sequence continued until 127B is sent by the controller and no resource asserts the SRQ line TRUE. The controller interprets this condition as the end of the FSCM/model number sub-identifier and sends a 127B character again to initiate the search for the first serial number character. Detection of the model number end is necessary to prevent the possibility of two resources being assigned the same address. For example, one resource may have a model-number/serial-number combination (identical FSCM numbers) of 845A/123 whereas another may have 845/A123. Although the model and serial numbers are different, the total combinations are not, and thus the end of the model number must be made known to cause one of the resources (one with the smaller model number) to cease listening. That resource (model number 845) expects two 127B characters to be sent after the "5" is processed. (The first 127B character finds the end of the model number--no SRQ TRUE assertion. The second 127B initiates the search of the first serial number character.) However, the "A" of the 845A resource causes the SRQ line to be asserted TRUE when 127B is sent. The controller assumes that another character is to be searched in the model number and sends only characters from 32B through 126B. Since the second 127B character did not occur, the 845 resource ceases listening. Once the end-of-model number condition is processed, the serial number characters are searched in the same way as those of the model number. When the 127B character does not cause an SRQ TRUE assertion again, the controller assumes that the end of a serial number has been reached and that the associated resource has been selected. The controller assigns this first selected resource the first unoccupied address. (In reality, the controller can assign any unoccupied address, except 15 ("/")). However, it is recommended that addresses be assigned sequentially starting from the lowest unassigned one.
The controller continues the next resource search by sending address 15 followed by 127B. Resources already processed no longer have an address of 15 and thus do not respond. However, all the remaining ones do and are selected one by one for which each is assigned an available address up to and including 30 (excluding 15). Eventually, all resources are processed and therefore the SRQ line is not asserted TRUE when the 127B character is sent after the address 15 character. This condition indicates the completion of the initialization process.
Obviously, other embodiments and modifications of the subject invention will readily come to the mind of one skilled in the art having the benefit of the teachings presented in the foregoing description and the drawing. It is, therefore, to be understood that this invention is not to be limited thereto and that said modifications and embodiments are intended to be included within the scope of the appended claims.

I was looking at the new Center for Disease Control and Preventions report on opioid prescriptions and I immediately noticed an interesting correlation. States with medical marijuana laws on average had noticeably lower rates of prescriptions for opioid pain relievers than states without medical marijuana.
Since the CDC data was from 2012 I looked at the 16 states plus D.C. which adopted medical marijuana laws before the beginning of 2012. Of these 17 jurisdictions 12 had below average opioid pain reliever prescription rates.
The only medical marijuana state that was in the top ten for highest rate of opioid pain reliever prescriptions was Michigan at spot number ten. On the other hand five of the top ten states with the lowest rate have medical marijuana laws.
Studies have indicated medical marijuana can help will pain management and allow people with chronic pain to take fewer opioids. Medical marijuana is often recommended as an alternative for pain in some states.
Of course correlation doesn't necessarily mean there is causation. It is possible both are just the result of some third factor. For example Democratic-leaning states are more likely to have approved medical marijuana laws, and more liberal legislatures may also be more willing to adopt new health care regulations. The map of opioid prescriptions rates does bear some resemblance to the 2012 Presidential election map and in general Southern doctors are more likely to write prescriptions for many types of drugs, like antibiotics.
I simply point out this correlation because it seems like a subject that might benefit from further exploration by a dedicated researcher, especially as more states adopt marijuana reforms. I'm personally unaware of any broad analysis looking at medical marijuana's impact on the overall use of prescription opioid medication in the country, but think it would be interesting.
It could be important because as the CDC report notes, opioid pain relievers were involved in 16,917 overdose deaths in 2011.

This is a fascinating article! I have a food blog about world cuisine. I wanted to do a piece on Danish Aebleskivers - pancake balls, and I don't have much experience with baking or anything that involves batter. I found lot of aebleskiver recipes calling for all different amounts of baking soda and baking powder and I started asking friends and family about the difference between the two. My brother Luke - who loves your site - sent me this article. I used your science to construct my recipe. It turned out great! Thanks so much.

Now go to the door and drop the bunny into the front of the door. Mario should apear inside the door. get down on his knees and turn towards the bunny. Now put it down again.
You should be inside the room with bowsers door in it , with the bunny! Now do the same thing on bowsers door. Here's the link to a youtube video of it
Step 2: Bowser 2
Now go through it as you normally would. You have 2 keys! unfortunatley you're stuck in this room. no problem! Go to the sub level and exit level. You're out!
Step 3: This is the hardest part
Step 4: Endless stairs

Beat bowser and... You're done!
Thanks for watching!
i had all the 120 stars.
i got a new secret star for you guys:
in the first sliding level(in the star of the center of the castle, up and then go to right.the right photo is the good one) you need to get down in less then 21 seconds.
and in the level where that stupid monkey taker your cap, somewhere is a wall of stone where you can jump in.
walk with your shoulder at the walls and if you see it moving, jump in it and finish the other sliding level

The 30-year-old Scotland international had been sidelined with a hamstring injury, but put in a commanding display at Goodison Park, despite going down in a 2-1 loss.
And Boyce remains adamant that the returning Caldwell will lift the Latics defence as they look to move up the Premier League table, starting with three points at Aston Villa on Saturday.
He told the club's official website: "It was great to have Gary back in the team because he is our Captain and a vital body in defence that has been missing.
"He had a good game and it was good to see him back and with Ivan Ramis hopefully returning soon, we should be back to our full strength at the defence.
"We're close to having the whole squad fit and we're going to need that as we get further and further into the second half of the season.
"We're frustrated at the moment because we can't get stuck in a rhythm of performing well but not getting the results.
"Sooner or later we need to start picking up a good series of points because we have to be aiming to look at getting above teams rather than worrying about teams below us.
"We're confident that the situation can change because we've done it before.
"If we can create more chances and take them then I'm confident that the rest of our game is good enough to win the upcoming matches."
