Georgia Regresses: Drops E-Word
Georgia is in the process of revising its 1997 "Quality Control Curriculum" (QCC) science education standards. The previous standards received a grade of F on Dr. Lawrence Lerner's 2000 evaluation of science education standards produced for the Fordham Foundation. The earlier standards used the word "evolution," but according to Lerner, "not in a way that encourages clarification of its role in the life sciences."
The New Creationism and Its Threat to Science Literacy and Education

Nicole Miller is known for its modern yet timeless and ageless aesthetic. Whimsical and and refined, Miller's silhouettes are body conscious and artfully draped for a feminine and sexy figure.

Knicks Chalk
By: Ryan Wallace
Today is the first day of Training Camp. What better way to kick it off then get down to the nitty-gritty on how this team is going to win the Atlantic Division and have a run in the post season.
First off I really do believe that the Knicks wanted Jeremy Lin back, but at the end of the day this team wasn't a good fit for him. This Knickerbocker club will resemble your Riley/Van Gundy Knicks. Jeremy is a pick and roll/up tempo guy. I don't think you will see the Knicks playing that brand this year. This team is built on defense. The additions the organization made, I believe, will give Mike Woodson a great chance at defining roles early on.
Biggest Addition: Marcus Camby will give the Knicks an ELITE defender and rebounder. Per 48 minute averages of 3.02 blocks and 18.8 rebounds(first in the league). I can see Marcus pushing Amare for minutes in the fourth quarter when the Knicks are ahead. Towards the end of last season, to me, the Knicks biggest drop off came when Tyson would get in foul trouble. This should no longer be an issue as there will be no drop off in production when Camby comes in the game. Also age jokes aside, Marcus played more games last season the Amare and Melo.
Back-Court Depth. Even with the subtraction of Jeremy Lin the Knicks added players that will be able to play the brand that Mike Woodson wants. I especially like Jason Kidd's versatility. Kidd took 6.5 threes per game shooting 35%. That type of production will be able to space the floor. I can see a lineup where Kidd plays along with Steve Novak giving the rest of the Knicks plenty of room to create. In addition the added depth should elevate JR Smith and Iman Shumpert's games as they will have to play better to earn minutes.
Need for improvement: The most telling quotes for me came from Carmelo Anthony. He recognizes the need to play a more all around game. No longer is there a need for him to score 30-35 points for this team to win. In contrary I did not see anything similar from Amare Stoudamire. If the Knicks are going to move into the Elite tier in the NBA the biggest adjustment needs to come from Amare. I was watching some of the Knicks/Bulls wars on MSG recently, and couldn't help but see the similarities physically between Dennis Rodman and Amare. Personally I feel like Amare is at an inflection point in his career. If Amare is going to continue to be a guy who is at the all-star level he needs to dedicate to a more Rodmanesque game. Get his boards up to 10-11 a game and shoot in the high 50's. Really start causing havoc in the paint like Rodman did on the offensive glass. In my opinion there is enough scoring on this team that there only needs to be one lead dog scoring wise and that is Carmelo Anthony. The sooner Amare accepts that and decides to dedicate himself to dominating in the paint the better for the Knickerbockers.
Really looking forward to the season and breaking down some game action. I think this team is set up to make a run at the Atlantic Division and for the first time in many years to get out of the first round.
Follow me on twitter @11758rw. I'll be expanding on the scouting report product from last season and would love to be a little more interactive with the TKB faithful.

Some residents asked to leave their homes as flames approach.
A managed fire that was started in June and was barely smouldering last week turned into a large problem for the Scofield Mountain Home subdivision over Sunday night to Monday morning.
On Sunday crews were battling the blaze but overnight strong winds came up and created spotting beyond the boundaries of the fires determined burn area and a number of full time families along with some summer residents were evacuated as a precaution.
According to Hal Stevens, the Manti LaSal National Forest duty officer for Monday Sunday nights wind event took the fire to a new level.
"Yesterday (Sunday) it was kind of rough, but by night things were looking much better," he told the Sun Advocate on Monday morning. "But overnight there were some big winds and calls started coming in that the fire was a problem."
Stevens said a few days ago the Forest Service had decided the managed fire had done its job and they went putting it out.
"I flew over the area in a helicopter and there was a little smoke in Subdivision Canyon," said Stevens.
They then began the process of extinguishing it with some ground personnel, engines and a helicopter.
But the wind started before that was finished and it began to grow as flare ups sent embers out beyond the boundaries of the prescibed burn area.
"Right now we have the incident command system in place and we have one ground crew, two wildfire engines and a helicopter battling the blaze," said Stevens. "We are presently in the process of locating on site a number of structure engines, three more hand crews and have a type two helicopter on its way to help us."
A type two helicopter is larger than the standard helicopters used to carry fire retardant and water. They were used extensively on the fire in Mathis Canyon (off Willow Creek Canyon) three years ago when that blaze was classified at the top of the priority list for a few days.
Structure fire engines are different than brush engines. They are there to protect outbuildings, residences and other man made structures.
Stevens also said a strike team with five more engines had also been ordered to help out.

Millions of older people face shrinking Social Security checks next year, trustees who oversee Social Security are projecting there won't be a cost of living adjustment (COLA) for the next two years. By law, Social Security benefits cannot go down. Nevertheless, monthly payments would drop for millions of people in the Medicare prescription drug program because the premiums, which often are deducted from Social Security payments, are scheduled to go up slightly to seniors, especially with their health care increase costs, it is a big deal. Advocates say older people face higher prices because they spend a disproportionate amount of their income on health care, where costs rise faster than inflation. Many also have suffered from declining home values and shrinking stock portfolios just as they are relying on those assets for income. "Anyone who has/had savings and investments has seen some serious losses." About 50 million retired and disabled Americans receive Social Security benefits. The average monthly benefit for retirees is $1,153 this year. More than 32 million people are in the Medicare prescription drug program. Average monthly premiums are set to go from $28 this year to $30 next year, though they vary by plan. About 6 million people in the program have premiums deducted from their monthly Social Security payments, according to the Social Security Administration. Millions of people with Medicare Part B coverage for doctors' visits also have their premiums deducted from Social Security payments. Part B premiums are expected to rise as well. There is no such hold-harmless provision for drug premiums. Just think should government cut the payments to 15 million illegal trespassing aliens, Social Security would save 134 billion to distribute to the recipients' receiving benefits from the program which they supported throughout their working lives that would be an average of $130.00 increase per current recipient! And this does not take into account education, free lunches, medical, housing, transportation our taxes are paying to illegal trespassing aliens.
Critics argue that Social Security recipients shouldn't get an increase when inflation is going up and projected to get worse. They note that recipients got a big increase in January after energy prices had started to fall. They also note that Social Security recipients received one-time $250 payments in the spring as part of the government's economic stimulus package. Social Security is also facing long-term financial problems. The retirement program is projected to start paying out more money than it receives in 2016. Without changes, the retirement fund will be depleted in 2037, according to the Social Security trustees' annual report this year.
President Barack Obama has said he would tackle Social Security but it is set on the back burner until next year, after Congress finishes work on health care, climate change and new financial regulations. Lawmakers are preoccupied by health care, making it difficult to address other tough issues. Advocates for older people hope their efforts will get a boost in October, when the Social Security Administration officially announces that there will not be an increase in benefits next year. "I think a lot of seniors do not know what's coming down the pike, and I believe that when they hear that, they're going to be upset," said Sen. Bernie Sanders, an independent from Vermont who is working on a proposal for one-time payment for Social Security recipients. "It is my view that seniors are going to need help this year, and it would not be acceptable for Congress to simply turn its back on seniors," he said.
For the first time seniors are expendable...remember this during the next elections.

akibowwow2 the place is awsome! I love the place. Very convenient for accessing all over the place. and nice views from the apartment. The room is clean, also the bathroom is great as well. The kitchen is a little small, but that is still enough for 2 guests. The landaury machine is there in the bathroom, so that is very useful. We can hang those on the windows, then it will be dry just in a day. That is very good for family guests as well.

ninric This place was incredible. It was convenient to various locations being a 5 minute walk to the metro and Nyugati train station. There's an ABC supermarket on the corner, as well as a pub/restaurant. On the next block there is also a vegetarian cafe and an English bookstore. Several blocks down there is an OTP money exchange bank. Everything inside the apartment is clean and new, not to mention elegantly decorated with granite and hardwood floors and small items and every appliance and amenity you may need to make your stay comfortable. I felt safe there. It was also infinitely quiet. It backs to the courtyard, not the street. The courtyard has many trees and song birds. There are two balconies - one off the bedroom, the other off the kitchen where you can sit and enjoy a meal and the pleasant environment. The owners provide a Budapest guidebook and pamphlets. These were useful to me. This place was so great though, I think I would have been happy to just stay inside my entire stay. For entertainment, there is a tv with both dvd and movies provided. Wifi is also available. A final note, there is no on-call staff or room service. So this situation will work best if you are a low-maintenance guest and independent traveller who can arrange to be at the apartment at a particular time. That said, the owners go out of their way to help their guests have the best experience possible.

Gerber's Epic Sunday Leads to BIG EAST Player of the Week
OMAHA, Neb. - Senior Mike Gerber's epic performance on Sunday at St. John's (3-for-6 with two HR and six RBI) helped the Illinois native earn his second BIG EAST Player of the Week award in 2014 on Monday, May 12.
Gerber powered the Bluejays to the series win at St. John's over the weekend, which lifted them into first place in the BIG EAST by one game over the Red Storm. He went 6-for-14 (.429) at the plate in the series, driving in eight runs and scoring six times. Gerber erupted in Sunday's series finale on FOX Sports 1, drilling a pair of two-run homers in his first two at-bats and adding a double later to finish 3-for-6 with three runs scored and six RBI.
The senior outfielder, who was the coaches' choice as BIG EAST Preseason Player of the Year, slugged 1.000 in the series and added three walks for a .529 on-base percentage.
Gerber and the Bluejays return to action on Tuesday, May 13 as Creighton hosts Stephen F. Austin (12:30 pm) and Nebraska (7:00 pm) in a day/night doubleheader.
BIG EAST Pitcher of the Week
LUKE CAHILL, SETON HALL So., RHP, Tinton Falls, N.J.
Cahill authored arguably the best start of his career in Saturday's doubleheader nightcap, a 7-3 Pirate victory. He scattered seven hits and allowed two earned runs in a career-high eight innings while striking out a career-best 11 and walking just two. The sophomore righty is 9-1 with a 2.63 ERA and hasn't lost since the season's opening series at Oklahoma in mid-February.
BIG EAST Weekly Honor Roll
STEVE ANDERSON, GEORGETOWN Sr., 1B, Albany, N.Y.
Batted .500 (8-for-16) in four games, including a 7-for-12 (.583) showing in a three-game series at Butler. Drove in five runs and scored four times in the series win over the Bulldogs while drilling one homer and four doubles. Slugged .938 and posted a .556 on-base percentage for the week.
SAL ANNUNZIATA, SETON HALL Jr., 1B, Bronx, N.Y.
Went 5-for-12 in a series sweep of Xavier, raising his season average to .351. Had six RBI and scored twice while reaching base at least twice in all three games against the Musketeers. Went 2-for-4 with three RBI and a triple in Saturday's second game when the Pirates completed the series sweep.
MICHAEL DONADIO, ST. JOHN'S Fr., OF, Mount Sinai, N.Y.
Hit .643 (9-for-14) in four games while the Johnnies went 2-2. Was 5-for-9 in the Creighton series with two doubles, four RBI and one steal. Opened the week going 4-for-5 against Albany. Has a hit in seven straight games and 14 of the last 15. Raised his batting average 28 points to .333 last week and posted a pair of multi-hit games versus the Bluejays.
DANIEL RIZZIE, XAVIER So., C, Orland Park, Ill.
Batted .417 (5-for-12) in Xavier's three-game set at Seton Hall with a double and two RBI. Battled back after an 0-for-3 showing against Pirate ace Josh Prevost to knock five hits in the last two games.
MATT SMITH, GEORGETOWN So., RHP, Cranberry Township, Pa.
Matched a career high when he went eight strong innings in Friday's 5-2 victory at Butler in the series opener. Struck out five while allowing two runs on five hits and lowered his ERA to 3.21. Smith is 2-0 in his last two starts with two runs and nine hits allowed with 15 strikeouts over 16 innings.

And all my posts replying to them.
Have you been watching the IPs from these bots so you can block the ranges? Surely there are some ranges you could do without. Or maybe the BB has support for some type of blacklist?
Over at SE, we just ended of blocking most of asia, and none of us admins have seen a bot since. We are also using vBullitin btw.

I hesitate to block entire ranges of IP addresses from posting to the forums. The site's visitors are equally distributed between the Americas, Asia and EMEA.
The moderators have the ability to use an infraction system to permanently disable members and they also have the ability to permanently delete posts.
Some spammers will always get through, the key is to make their handiwork short lived.
If it gets worse, we'll have to revisit the solution, but we should be OK for now.
I suggest this:
Create a private (not seen unless you qualify even) forum for the mods to track the banned people, their IPs and the infraction. This will make tracking minor infractions, but repeat offenders easier to handle most efficiently.
Just a thought, but one that works well for others.
User lemermobile banned for Nokia spam.
If you are a moderator, you can ban users yourself. There is a yellow/redcard (like in soccer) icon at the top of each post which you can use to give an infraction and provide a reason.
If it is blatant spam, feel free to ban, and permanently delete the post. The member can appeal to me directly.
My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive.

Fujikawa Has 10 Offers; Considering Five Teams
By Steve Adams [November 20, 2012 at 12:49am CST]
Japanese closer Kyuji Fujikawa visited with five MLB teams this past weekend, and he appears to be moving quickly through the free agent process. Patrick Newman of NPB Tracker (Twitter link) translates a Nikkan Sports piece that reports Fujikawa has offers from 10 Major League clubs and has narrowed his decision process to five teams.
Fujikawa has reportedly met with the Dodgers, Angels, Orioles, Cubs and Diamondbacks. The Rangers are also said to have interest in the 32-year-old, who has been Japan's best closer for the past several years. He is reportedly looking for a multiyear deal on his first foray into Major League Baseball. Because he is a free agent, interested teams are not required to go through the posting process with Fujikawa.
Fujikawa has only posted an ERA higher than 1.63 once since 2007. Over the past six seasons with the Hanshin Tigers, he has 202 saves to go along with an eye-popping 1.36 ERA, 0.86 WHIP, 12.4 K/9 and 2.3 BB/9 in 369 2/3 innings. In that time, he's allowed just 18 home runs.
This guy's numbers are unreal. Does anyone have a scouting report on him? I'd be interested in an objective evaluation as to whether his stuff would translate well to MLB. Anytime you can add talent with just money the team should do it.

Which other prospects could one day join Derek Stepan, Ryan McDonagh and the rest of the young Rangers on Broadway?
Blueshirt Bulletin will be tracking the progress of the next wave of youngsters as they compete and develop this season in the Canadian junior leagues, college and abroad.
Below is a compilation of scouting reports, buzz and analysis by scouts and hockey experts on Peter Ceresnak.
We'll update this as the season unfolds with the latest news at the very bottom of this post.
Peter Ceresnak
Drafted: 2011 (6th round, 172nd overall)
Pos: D
Shoots: R
Birthday: 1/26/93
Team: Peterborough Petes, OHL
2010-2011 stats for HK Dukla Trencin (Slovakia Junior League): 1g, 3a, 23gp, 16PIM, +0
Rangers.com Profile >
Highlight Reel >
Scouting report entering the season from Blueshirt Bulletin staff writer and author of The Prospect Park, Jess Rubenstein:
"Peter Ceresnak surprised us as our first look at him at Traverse City was of a slow footed, slow reacting defender. Not the case tonight as the 6'3 defender showed us an improved stride but also a shot that had something on it. Clearly still a work in progress, Ceresnak is a much improved player since Traverse City." (10/7/11)
What they're saying:
Mike Morreale, NHL.com (12/2/10) – "The 6-foot-3, 209-pounder is touted as one of Slovakia's most physical players."
Dan Stewart, Future Considerations (12/26/10) – "Scouting Report: Big physical stay-at-home defender…has decent skating ability but has just average speed…is quicker than you would think in his transitional turns and pivots…not much offensive upside here although he makes a solid first pass…at his best when keeping his game simple but can get caught running around in his zone…needs further refinement in proper defensive positioning…extremely physical and likes to line up attacking forwards for the big hit…clears the front of the net effectively and is hard to play against along the wall… Has moved around a bit this season but has continued his strong defensive physical role with each squad he has suited up with. Has improved his skating from last year and looks stronger as well. Should be effective in a physical defensive shut-down role for the Slovak's."
Radim Jelinek, Czech/Slovak Scout for Red Line Report (1/24/11) – "Ceresnak is already well built physically, strong on skates. Feet are a bit slow and heavy, passes are firm and can make good outlet but not smart or creative with puck. Defensively he is strong in battles and is tough to beat in 1 on 1 situations. However doesn´t read the play in own zone, when opposing forwards start cycling, collide each other, shift spots then he is not able to read those situations properly, picks up wrong player consistently, gets out of position, wanders around own zone without his player."
Kirk Luedeke, Bruins 2011 Draft Watch (4/15/11) – "Nothing major to report on this defense-first player. He kept things pretty simple, but had trouble handling the smaller, quicker U.S. forwards especially when they forced him to move away from the boards and into the open ice. Has a pretty good stick for breaking up plays, but doesn't do a great deal to stand out either way."
Oilers Draft Watch (6/19/11) – "Ceresnak was the team's best and most physical defenseman and was second on the team in defensive scoring behind Peter Trska."…"Offense isn't really Ceresnak's game. According to Central Scouting, Ceresnak is one of Slovakia's most physical players and at 6'3" 209 lbs, he brings NHL size with that physical play. He began the season as "one to watch" on most draftnik's lists but slipped throughout the year, mostly due to a poor showing at the World Junior Championships where, although he was on the team, his ice time was limited."
Kirk Luedeke: "Big guy, good stick and uses his size effectively. Doesn't have a lot of foot speed, but is fairly agile and as long as he's not in the open ice, can do a pretty good job against opposing forwards. Physical defender who uses his size effectively along the wall and in front of his net. Plays a highly conservative style, but has shown an ability to make the quick breakouts and outlets. Not a lot of upside here, but could surprise as a long-term project guy later on. He started out the season with more promise as a top-three rounder, but has fallen off."
Corey Pronman, Hockey Prospectus (6/25/11) – "Peter Ceresnak never really stood out in viewings. He showed a steady and somewhat advanced defensive game but he's not really a pro puck-mover."
David Reid, Peterborough Petes General Manager (6/29/11) – "Peter will fit very well into our defensive group, along with excellent skills Peter brings international experience which will allow him adjust to the OHL quicker than most first year players."
(9/25/11) The Prospect Park – "Ceresnak scored his 1st OHL goal when he scored at 1:49 of the 2nd period on a power play to give the Petes a 1-0 lead. Ceresnak looks like he is adapting to playing in North America as we see his biggest learning curve here is going to be his decision making speed.
We like how Ceresnak is showing a willingness to learn and it was Ceresnak who said he wanted to come play in North America that led the Rangers to make the deal to be able to draft him. It will be interesting to watch Ceresnak as the season progresses to see how much improvement he makes."
(11/4/11) The Prospect Park—"Fellow Ranger Prospect Peter Ceresnak (2011 6th) also was scoreless and we wonder if he has already hit his rookie wall. Ceresnak is scoreless in his last 7 games and has only a -6 to show for it."
(11/8/11) The Prospect Park—" Peter Ceresnak was bumped down to second pair defense after the Petes traded for an overage defenseman was scoreless as well."
(11/15/11) Hockey's Future—"Also in the CHL, sixth round selection Peter Ceresnak, is adjusting well to the smaller North American ice surface. After an unimpressive Traverse City Rookie Tournament, Ceresnak took his place on the Peterborough Petes blue line, where he has played well thus far this season. Ceresnak is a long-shot to make the NHL, but he is very raw and will continue to work on skating and positioning."
(12/5/11) As per Loose Pucks, Peter Ceresnak has been named to Team Slovakia for the World Junior Championship.
(12/20/11) The Prospect Park -- "Another giant of a player (6'4 203) who the Rangers decided to take a gamble on. Ceresnak is never going to make anyone forget about Brian Leetch but was worth risking a 6th on.First Half: Started decently and was the top pair defender at the beginning of the season for the Peterborough Petes. The smaller ice surfaces of North America actually helped Ceresnak because speed is not his game.Strength: Coachable and looking to improve himself as a player. Does not look to make the "perfect play" as he is learning get the puck on the net. Potential with some work Concern: A big man with slow first step who is trying to adapt from playing one style of hockey to a much more physical game. Now do it while being thousands of miles from home in a strange country with few people around who speak the same language or have the same culture. The "European Wall" will hit Ceresnak about the middle of Feburary so we will see what he has left in the tank then. Shoot more, hit more, get angry once or twice are all serious areas to watch. Second Half: Ceresnak starts off by playing for Slovakia in the World Under-20 championships which we do not expect much from Slovakia as they have been in relegation round each of the last 2 years. Returning to the Petes will be interesting as their conference is close enough where 3 wins could put you as high as 3rd or 3 losses could knock you out.Ceresnak has a good point shot and we want to see him use it more. Ceresnak is huge so use that size more as you do not have to fight to intimidate; hit a couple of people hard and they will not want to come down your side of the ice.Improving his skating will have to wait until the off-season but Ceresnak is in good hands with Mike Pelino as his coach. A project yes but if he works out then you added another monster sized defender."

Still in nagios.cfg, change:
and change:Code:check_external_commands=0 check_external_commands=1
open minimal.cfg and copy the timeperiod definition and paste it into a new file called timeperiods.cfg and save it.Code:enable_flap_detection=0 enable_flap_detection=1
Do the same for the contact definition and contact group definition. For hosts, copy the generic-host definition, along with the localhost definition and paste into hosts.cfg.Code:define timeperiod{ timeperiod_name 24x7 alias 24 Hours A Day, 7 Days A Week sunday 00:00-24:00 monday 00:00-24:00 tuesday 00:00-24:00 wednesday 00:00-24:00 thursday 00:00-24:00 friday 00:00-24:00 saturday 00:00-24:00 }
I have added a networked host to check. Copy the hostgroup definition from minimal.cfg and paste into the new hostgroups.cfg.Code:define host{ name generic-host ; The name of this host template notifications_enabled 1 ; Host notifications are enabled event_handler_enabled 1 ; Host event handler is enabled flap_detection_enabled 1 ; Flap detection is enabled failure_prediction_enabled 1 ; Failure prediction is enabled process_perf_data 1 ; Process performance data retain_status_information 1 ; Retain status information across program restarts retain_nonstatus_information 1 ; Retain non-status information across program restarts register 0 ; DONT REGISTER THIS DEFINITION - ITS NOT A REAL HOST, JUST A TEMPLATE! } # Since this is a simple configuration file, we only monitor one host - the # local host (this machine). define host{ use generic-host ; Name of host template to use host_name localhost alias localhost address 127.0.0.1 check_command check-host-alive max_check_attempts 10 notification_interval 120 notification_period 24x7 notification_options d,r contact_groups admins } define host{ use generic-host ; Name of host template to use host_name testbox alias Testbox address 192.168.0.4 check_command check-host-alive max_check_attempts 10 notification_interval 120 notification_period 24x7 notification_options d,r contact_groups admins }
Code:define hostgroup{ hostgroup_name test alias Test Servers members localhost,testbox }
I added our testbox to this group. We will need to copy the services definitions from minimal.cfg and paste them all into the new services.cfg file. Now we verify our work using nagios:

I ordered the aurora skin for my kobo glo in the matte finish, and it looks awesome. It did not take long for my order to arrive in Canada , I was shocked to find it in my mailbox so soon. The matte is great so as not to be too distracting while reading. Definitely worth the money! -Julie julie hawkes, Canada
