Belated mentor announcements
Where has the summer gone?
Introducing ports committer, Rene Ladan
I am pleased to introduce Rene Ladan, (rene) to the ports tree! He has been a long time ports contributor, and a Dutch Documentation committer. He made the classic mistake of sending in too many PRs, so I decided to punish him.
Congratulations, Rene!
Introducing ports committer, Giuseppe Pilichi
Last month (yes I know I am late), Gabor Pali asked me to co-mentor Giuseppe Pilichi (jacula@), to join the FreeBSD Haskell Effort, aka the Haskell World Domination team. As I had the pleasure to mentor pgj@ into the ports world, it seemed fitting to assist with jacula!
Congratulations, Giuseppe!
New ports committer, Alberto Villa
I am pleased to announce my latest mentee, Alberto Villa. Alberto has been a dedicated contributor with the FreeBSD KDE team, and it was finally time to punish him with a ports commit bit.
Martin Wilke will be Alberto's co-mentor in this little adventure!
Congratulations Alberto!
Dima Panov flying solo
Dima "Red Fox" Panov, aka fluffy@ has been a dedicated contributor to the FreeBSD KDE team, and his hard work has paid off, miwi@ and I have cast him loose to collect pointy hats on his own.
It has been a pleasure being your mentor, Dima, good look, and may your INDEX breakages be elusive 😀
Introducing new Ports Committer, Dima Panov
I will be mentoring Dima along with Martin Wilke. Dima was instrumental working behind the scenes in preparing the FreeBSD port of KDE 4.3 and as a result we are punishing him with a commit bit.
Dima's new handle is [email protected]
Just remember Dima, you are not a real committer until you break the INDEX, then fix it!
New Ports committer, Alexander Logvinov, avl@
Short story long, I was privileged to meet Greg Larkin, glarkin@, at BSDCan 2009. We were chatting during lunch time one day and he says something like, "I really should mentor somebody". I told him I would take him up on the offer in the near future.
That moment arrived, to co-mentor avl@.
Congratulations Alexander, may your pointyhats be elusive
dhn flying solo
Dennis Herrmann worked very hard since receving his port commit bit, and today miwi and I set him free.
Good luck Dennis, and remember, I like chocolate chip cookies
New ports committer, Gabor Pali
Just in time for the 7.2 freeze, I got word from portmgr@ that I could mentor Gabo Pali, pgj@ in ports, with gabor@ as co-mentor.
I first hooked up with pgj@ when I submitted a PR to add a light bulb joke in the FreeBSD FAQ. Since that time, pgj@ wanted to wade into the ports world by helping out with Haskell. I have been reviewing his work since the new year, and decided to make it legit early in April.
Enjoy the enhanced commit privs, Gabor, and please don't break the INDEX!
New ports committer, Dennis Herrmann
I am fortunate to be co-mentor with Martin Wilke, to learn Dennis the subtle nuances of being a Ports Committer.
Don't think of Dennis as +1 to the German World Domination Team, think of him as a citizen of the world. Of course, should Dennis receive is first Pointyhat, I will declare him German, and Martin will declare him West German :>
Congratulations, Dennis, may your Pointyhats be elusive!

This was awesome! It required a lot of pots and bowls and so took a while to clean up but other than that it was easy. And I washed the pots while it was baking so it wasn't really a problem. I followed the directions exactly except I doubled the garlic, oregano, cinnamon and sugar. The ratio of meat sauce to cheese sauce was perfect and it baked up nicely in 25 min. Letting it sit for 5 or 10 minutes is important so that the top layer can really firm up. Greek food is my favorite and I am so happy I can make this at home!flag if inappropriate
Absolutely delicious, and so big it fed me and my boyfriend for a full week! 13x9 pan no where near big enough. I used beef instead of lamb to save some money, and did not find the flavor lacking. If you take this step, be sure to drain the browned beef - I did not and there was some excess grease in the finished product. I used more spices than called for (as per usual) and added about 5 whole cloves to the meat, which I fished out after it had simmered with the tomatoes. Will defintely make this many, many times.flag if inappropriate
I halved this recipe and it fed 4 adults, 3 men and 1 woman. I will leave the eggs out of the cheese sauce next time. The baking step rather scrambled the cheese sauce into a solid mass sitting atop the meat and pasta. Thought the sauce thick enough without the eggs. Even with the layer of scrambled cheese sauce and pasta, my guys thought it was very good. so will make again. Plan to make the meat sauce a day or two in advance and freeze half. Both meat and cheese sauce are excellent on their own.flag if inappropriate
This is delicious, and I don't mind the prep time and bowls/pans. I made it just like the recipe. However, I'd like a higher ratio of meat sause to cheese sauce, which is how I'll make it next time. Not more meat, just more sauce. Or maybe just less cheese sauce, with more of the pasta in the meat sauce.flag if inappropriate
Very tasty and a great way to use surplus tomatoes and eggplant. I didn't have feta so I used parmesan instead and used brown rice penne instead of regular pasta. I also broiled the eggplant in large slices coated with olive oil and dusted with garlic powder before cutting into smaller pieces and adding to the lamb sauce. Family enjoyed it, said it was different, but went back for seconds, so it must have been good. Makes a nice flavor change from typical pasta or lasagna dishes. Froze one extra pan so that I can use it for dinner in a pinch.flag if inappropriate
Wow! I made this today because I was craving pasta. I added a little more cinnamon and 3 cloves of garlic instead of one. The DH, who loves pastitsio, said this was better than the pastitsio at the Parthenon in [Greek town] Chicago. I agree.flag if inappropriate
This was better than expected but does leave many dirty pots. I must have messed up on the cheese sauce because mine was not creamy in the final dish. However, the lamb portion was so good that I am going to make again as a lamb sauce alone for pasta.flag if inappropriate
Quite tasty and, I thought, very authentic. (Reminded me of my vacation to Athens!) As others have suggested, I would increase the spices a bit next time; I had a real Greek feta, fresh ground cinnamon, and flavorful dried oregano, so I used the recommended quantities of each, thinking it'd be enough, but I would've liked just a tad more flavor. Used fresh tomatoes, since I have dozens right now from my farm share! I great way to use up a bumper crop of produce on a cool early fall evening. Served with Greek salad. Yum!flag if inappropriate
Really good - though I used ground beef (my family doesn't like lamb unfortunately..) As suggested I divided into two baking dishes and only made 1/2 batch sauce for the first night. The second time I served it I didn't have feta so I used Parmesan cheese for the sauce, which was fine. I also added some pitted greek olives. My husband loved it!flag if inappropriate
Great dish-just got back from Greece and this was the real thing. Just make like the recipe says.flag if inappropriate

Texas Unemployment Rate Rises in May
Houston County Courier - June 2009
AUSTIN - Texas' seasonally adjusted unemployment rate rose in May to 7.1 percent and continued to trend well below the national rate of 9.4 percent.
The Texas unemployment rate was up from a revised 6.6 percent in April when the U.S. unemployment rate stood at 8.9 percent.
Texas' seasonally adjusted nonagricultural employment fell by 24,700 jobs in May. Texas has recorded a net loss of 222,600 jobs in the past 12 months, compared with job losses of 5.4 million in the United States during the same period.
"The Texas unemployment rate continued to follow the national unemployment rate's upward trend," said Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) Chairman Tom Pauken. "Few industries were spared in May as Texas employers continued to report job losses. Continued unemployment claims increased in Texas as well."
Texas saw broad industry losses in May. Hardest hit were Manufacturing with a loss of 12,800 jobs over the month, followed by Construction with a loss of 10,400 jobs.
"Texas workers are facing a tight job market as employers across most industries reported job losses in May," said TWC Commissioner Representing Labor Ronny Congleton. "Job search assistance is available from TWC and 28 workforce boards across the state."
Education and Health Services remained a bright spot in the Texas economy with an additional 5,800 jobs in May for a gain of 59,600 jobs over the year. The Other Services industry, which includes automotive, electronic, and commercial repair and maintenance, grew by 5,200 jobs this month.
"While our unemployment rate rose in May, it does remain 2.3 percentage points below the national rate, and Texas experienced job growth in education and health care," said TWC Commissioner Representing the Public Andres Alcantar. "TWC and the workforce centers around the state remain focused on helping Texans find jobs."
The Lubbock Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) experienced the lowest unemployment rate in the state at 4.6 percent (not seasonally adjusted). The Amarillo MSA recorded the second lowest unemployment rate at 4.7 percent. The College Station-Bryan MSA was third lowest at 4.9 percent.

Gluten-Free Potatoes with Olive Oil & Parsley in the Slow Cooker
The simplest ideas are sometimes the most useful. This is a simple recipe and it is that simplicity that makes it so good. I did these potatoes in my slow cooker so I made them "on autopilot" while I did other things.
I made the potatoes shown in the picture in the slow cooker as cubed potatoes with olive oil & parsley for seasoning.
Quartered or cubed potatoes with your favorite seasonings would work just as well. I served these recently for dinner with what I call a mini-meat loaf.
Gluten-Free Flatbread Recipe with Hummus
Here's something you can use at a buffet, a Superbowl party, or if you just want some snacks to munch on. This Gluten-Free Flatbread will do a great job. And, depending on what you top it with, you can have plain or seasoned Gluten-Free Flatbread… As mild or as peppy as you like it. Add some hummus and you'll be enjoying a nutritious, filling snack or appetizer for your family and any guests you might have.
This flatbread recipe is easy and fast, even though it is yeast-raised. I've made it numerous times recently while I was testing different flours. It has been easy to make no matter what happens…
Spiced Cranberry Pear Sauce Completes the Holiday Dinner
When I lay out a plan to seat my guests at a dinner, I want to balance the personalities at each table. I want each group to have some who are gentle and mature, some who are a little outspoken and some who maybe are energetic with a few good stories to share.
Similarly, when I'm looking for a completing touch to a gluten-free holiday menu, I can add this tangy, saucy, sweet and spicy choice that is already gluten-free — Spiced Cranberry Pear Sauce.
Sauteed Chicken Breasts for an Easy Gluten-Free Recipe
Here's a moist and flavorful, easy chicken dinner that you can have on the table quickly and also serve a healthy meal to your family.
This basic gluten-free chicken recipe always satisfies my family, both the gluten-y eaters and those on a gluten-free diet. It goes with many of our favorite side dishes and is so easy to make on short notice. So, even if I start with frozen chicken breasts, preparation and cooking time is only a few minutes longer.
Add Kale, Onion and Peppers to Your Quick Healthy Meals List
I always like to have a few quick healthy meals handy like this gluten-free recipe made from kale, onion and peppers.
My husband actually likes this combination with kale, even though he never gets excited when he hears it's on the menu. (Don't tell him that I know he likes it J)
Having several 30 minute meals ready to go when necessary can be a lifesaver.
For more protein to go with these veggies, you can cook an egg or two in the center of the pan during the last few minutes of cooking time. These eggs are not technically poached since they aren't in water deep enough to cover them, but they will cook nicely if you…

One-time costs hit Chevron results, analyst says
(2:34 PM ET) NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- S&P Equity Research analyst Tina Vital on Friday reiterated her strong buy rating on Chevron Corp. CVX, +2.45% and said the oil giant's third-quarter earnings miss came because of one-time costs, "which we do not expect to continue." Oil and gas production rose 1.3% in the quarter, and Vital said she expects that figure to increase to 1.7% for the year.
Wind industry rings up weak quarter
(2:28 PM ET) NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- The U.S. installed 395 megawatts of wind power in the three months ended Sept. 30 in its lowest quarter of new projects since 2007, the American Wind Energy Association said Friday. Year-to-date installations totaled 1,634 megawatts, down 72% from the year-ago figure. The AWEA, a lobbying group for the wind industry, called on Congress to pass a national renewable energy standard to provide an incentive for more wind energy investment. Wind investment has fallen in the face of the year-end expiration of a federal production tax credit reimbursement program included in the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act. The measure helped 2009 set a new record of 10,000 megawatts of new wind development, the AWEA said. Builders of wind turbines include Siemens AG SI, -20.00% and General Electric Co. GE, +5.14%
Rockwell Collins sees defense growth beyond 2011
(11:01 AM ET) NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Rockwell Collins Inc. COL, +1.44% may be able to avoid the pitfalls of a long-term decline in military hardware spending by selling the Pentagon products and services related to its infrastructure and communications, said Chairman and Chief Executive Clay Jones on Friday. In an interview, Jones predicted 2011 will be a trough year for the avionic company's military business as the U.S. terminates the F-22 fighter jet program and upgrades for the aging KC-135 Stratotanker. But renewed revenue growth should follow, thanks to the implementation of a test-range system for the U.S. Air Force, a ramp up in the Joint Tactical Radio System program and through modernizing the military's infrastructure. There are also opportunities to increase overseas sales of its avionic equipment and services through U.S. deals with Saudi Arabia and India, and military helicopter demand should continue to climb through next year, Jones said.
Coinstar soars 21.6% after earnings beat estimates

Obama Says Federal Reserve's Easing Wasn't Aimed at Affecting Dollar Value
Posted By aaron On November 12, 2010 @ 2:29 pm In Economic Crisis,Old Infowars Posts Style | Comments Disabled
Nicholas Johnston and Hans Nichols
Nov 12, 2010
President Barack Obama said the U.S. Federal Reserve's second round of quantitative easing is designed to boost growth, not affect the value of the dollar, rebuffing charges that America is seeking a weaker exchange rate.
"This decision was not one to have an impact on the currency, on the dollar," Obama said a day after former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan said the nation was "pursuing a policy of currency weakening" in a Financial Times opinion piece. "It was designed to grow the economy," the president said.
Obama's comments also contrast with criticism of the Fed's step by officials in China, Germany and Brazil, who have said it will depress the value of the dollar. A weaker currency could help Obama achieve his goal of doubling U.S. exports in five years by boosting the competitiveness of overseas shipments.

The U.S. faces a "huge danger" from deflation, which would be damaging to the world economy, Obama told reporters today at the close of the Group of 20 summit in Seoul, where leaders agreed to move more toward market-set currencies. He said exchanges on the Fed's actions weren't "central to any of the discussions" between world leaders at the two-day summit.

ABSTRACT: Job satisfaction of school psychologists practicing in West Virginia (n = 106) was studied using a modified version of the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire. More than 35% of the responding practitioners were either dissatisfied or very dissatisfied with their jobs, while nearly 65% reported general satisfaction. Major sources of satisfaction included social service provision, co-workers, and activity. Major sources of dissatisfaction were school system policies and practices, advancement opportunities, working conditions, salary, and supervision. Salary and supervision were significant predictors of overall job satisfaction. Job satisfaction increased as:(a) salary increased, and (b) the supervisor's level of training reached or exceeded the level of the practitioner and the area of training more closely approached that ofa school psychologist

A 3D visualization tool for file system hierarchies is
presented. The visualization technique used is based on
the Tree-map / nested Venn diagram concept and is
capable of visualizing metrics and attributes such as
size, change and file type for thousands of nodes
simultaneously. Size is visualized through node base
area, change is visualized through the ghosting and
hiding of unchanged nodes and file type is visualized
through colors. Actions such as navigation and
selection are performed exclusively in 3D. Finally a
method for improving the visibility of nodes through
the equalization of sibling nodes is proposed.

15* NL Tuesday Undervalued Underdog on Washington Nationals +100
15* NL Tuesday Undervalued Underdog on Washington Nationals +100
Washington vs. NY Mets, 07/24/2012 19:10 EDT, Score: 5 - 2
Money Line: +100 Washington
Sportsbook: BETONLINE
Result: Win
The Washington Nationals are showing solid value as a small underdog to the New York Mets tonight. At 56-39 on the season and with three straight wins, the Nationals have showed no signs of slowing down. The Mets, meanwhile, have lost four straight and 10 of 11 overall.
Gio Gonzalez is having a tremendous season, going 12-5 with a 3.32 ERA and 1.144 WHIP in 19 starts this season. After giving up six earned runs over 3 1/3 innings against the Mets in his last start against them on July 19th, he'll be very motivated to get revenge tonight.
R.A. Dickey is having a solid year as well, but he's finally starting to come back down to reality. Dickey has posted a 6.05 ERA and 1.707 WHIP over his last three starts. He beat Gonzalez in that July 19th game, but gave up four runs and 11 base runners in the process.
The Nationals are 5-0 in their last 5 games as an underdog. Washington is 7-1 in Gonzalez's last 8 starts vs. a team with a losing record. The Mets are 1-10 in their last 11 vs. a team with a winning record. New York is 0-6 in their last 6 home games vs. a team with a winning record. The 0-7 in their last 7 when their opponent scores 5 runs or more in their previous game. The Nationals are 7-1 in their last 8 meetings in New York. These six trends make for a 44-4 system backing Washington. Roll with the Nationals Tuesday.

You'll be hard pressed to find a drummer that doesn't recognize the name Remo. Founded in 1957, Remo has since built a strong reputation amongst percussionists and drummers, thanks to their ability to adapt to the ever-growing and ever-changing needs of players.
Although Remo is known mainly for their exceptionally durable drumheads, Remo's state-of-the-art designs and innovative prowess expands into many others areas of percussion and drumming. From djembe's and gathering drums to bongos, congas and even assorted shakers, Remo specializes in many unique areas of percussion that pertain to nurturing the abilities of younger rhythm makers. Of course, whether you're a grade-school enthusiast or a touring heavy-metal crusher, Remo is a name that players of all ages, genres, and skill levels can count on for outstanding craftsmanship and playability.
Remo has no shortage of highly rated options, and the Remo Kid's Rain Forest Hand Drum percussion set is a big seller. The winner of the Oppenheim Gold Seal Toy award for product quality, this set is perfect for educational purposes and even family jamming. For hi-hats, the Remo Quick-Lock hi-hat clutch gives players the ability to quickly change hi-hat cymbals with a lock-notch system instead of the typical screw off-and-on system. Functional and easy-to-use, you won't have to worry about slowing the show down when you're equipped with this tremendous clutch system.
Of course, we couldn't mention Remo without mentioning one of their remarkably crafted drumheads. The Remo Powerstroke 3 Clear Bass drumhead is a one-ply drumhead with a dampening ring, and a white impact patch to boost its lifespan. Incredibly responsive, this drumheads ability to improve sound is continuously championed by drummers of all genres.
The heartbeat of music lies in the hands of drummers of percussionists, which is why you need to ensure that the beat you're keeping is steady, and the drums you're hitting are capable of holding up through countless amounts of usage. With Remo, you're going with a name that can easily be found on the biggest stages and in the most legendary recording studios. So you can have peace of mind knowing that no technical hindrances will ever slow you down in the middle of an unforgettable performance.

Caliber - .22LR
Capacity - 10rd rotary or 25rd box magazines
Action - Blowback-operated semi-automatic
Barrel - 18.5"
Weight - ~5 lbs.
The Ruger 10/22 is, quite simply, the gold standard by which all other .22LR semi-auto rifles are measured. Although Ruger currently offers more than a dozen different variations, their basic design differs very little from the original model introduced back in 1964. The 10/22 is immensely popular, partly because of its versatility; it ranks with the 1911 and AR-15 as one of the most customizable firearms on the market. One can literally build up a complete 10/22 using NO factory parts (though technically it isn't a "real" 10/22 unless the Ruger receiver is used)!
My idea was to build up a 10/22 to use with my Gemtech Outback suppressor, and as an "AR simulator" for inexpensive long gun practice. I chose not to build a dedicated .22LR AR upper partly because hi-capacity magazines for them were either unavailable or prohibitively expensive, and partly because I just wanted something different.
The Rebuild
As the basis for my 10/22 project, I chose a 10/22RPF - Ruger's designation for the blued-steel, synthetic stock model with the standard tapered barrel - set into a Butler Creek side-folding pistol-grip stock. I did not shoot the gun in its standard configuration prior to beginning the project.
Using instructions found on the internet, I completely disassembled the gun down to its component parts, which was surprisingly easy (except for the trigger pack, which required a bit of attention to detail). I also removed the stock arm and hinge assembly from the Butler Creek chassis, and was able to sell those parts and the original 10/22 barrel to help offset some of the cost of the project.
I then completed the rebuild, using the following components:
The two best upgrades you can make to improve the "shootability" of the 10/22 are a bolt buffer and the Volquartsen hammer kit. The urethane buffer replaces the metal crosspin in the back of the receiver, which the bolt slams into to stop its rearward travel. The buffer reduces the jarring impact of the bolt, which makes it easier to keep the sights on target, as well as saving wear and tear on both bolt and receiver. The VQ hammer kit replaces the standard hammer and spring and provides a much smoother, lighter pull even when used with the factory trigger and sear. Buying the complete "competition trigger kit" is overkill on an non-precision gun.
Range Report
The weak link in any .22LR firearm is the ammunition. Because of the way it is primed, rimfire ammo has a higher incidence of failures to fire ("duds") than does centerfire ammo. And because most .22LR is produced in huge volumes and as inexpensively as possible, other quality control issues such as large velocity fluctuations and damaged bullets are not uncommon. Ammunition-related issues aside, the rebuilt 10/22 runs like the proverbial scalded dog. Many reliability problems with modified 10/22s stem from the use of overly tight "match" chambers which can hamper feeding and extraction, and by the use of poor-quality aftermarket magazines. By sticking with the standard barrel/chamber and bolt, the gun's reliability is less affected. Aftermarket mags are a necessity evil if you want a capacity higher than the factory 10 rounds, but some brands are better than others. I have had very good luck with the Butler Creek "Hot Lips" variety. The plastic feed lips can wear out over time, but the mags are inexpensive enough that you can just buy replacements if and when that happens. The "Steel Lips" magazines from the same source offer better durability, but at a much higher price.
Sighting in the SPOT MkIII red-dot was predictably easy, and I soon had the gun shooting entire 25-rd magazines into half-dollar-sized groups at 50 feet (the limit of the indoor range where the initial range work was conducted); not bad for a stock barrel, 4MOA dot and a lousy rifle shooter like me! Closer in, rapid fire mag dumps were insanely easy and a heck of a lot of fun. Outdoors with the Outback mounted, the gun produced very good groups at 25 yards with both CCI Green Tag and CCI Subsonic ammunition, and the most audible noise was from the bolt cycling. The sound signature can be further reduced by holding the bolt closed (easy to do thanks to the VQ extended handle) and shooting the gun as a single-shot. Decibel reduction wasn't nearly as dramatic with high-velocity ammunition, which is to be expected out of an 18" barrel.
I'm generally pretty pleased with how this gun came out. My only complaints are that the threaded barrel lacks any kind of iron sights (the threads are cut where the integral front sight used to be, and the folding rear sight was removed), and that the VQ auto bolt release occasionally sticks and doesn't allow the bolt to go forward when the charging handle is pulled to the rear and released. Given the price I paid for the barrel, I'm willing live without iron sights. The bolt release issue could probably be easily corrected if I chose to detail-strip the gun and investigate further, but so far it hasn't annoyed me to that point.
Bottom Line
As I discovered with my 22/45 and Advantage Arms Conversion Kit, .22s are FUN - the 10/22 puts that low-recoil and inexpensive rimfire goodness into a high-capacity rifle format. It also gives me another platform on which to use my suppressor, and provides some commonality in training (same sight picture, cheek weld and pistol-grip feel) with my AR-15s. Working over the 10/22 was a fun, easy and instructive project, and the result is a good-looking rifle that's easily one of my favorites.

Lynnae grew up in Livonia, MI with her older brother, Brian, and her younger sister, Lauren, the children of Larry and Andrea Patrias. She was lucky enough to live right down the street from her best friends, Nicole (right next door!), Colleen, and Becky. She went to Stevenson High School and enjoyed singing, acting, and photography. She worked at Holiday Inn with her friend Nicole, Han-d-dip (for 10 years, the best job ever), and Famous Dave's. She went to the University of Michigan and got the fun chance of living with her friends Colleen and Melissa. She graduated with a degree in Biology in 2006 and held her first job at Assay Designs in Ann Arbor, where she met her friend Andrea. After two years she left Assay Designs and is working with Andrea again at Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak where she is doing research on Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease. She is grateful to live close to her parents, Lauren, and her wonderful nephew Brayden.
Greg was born in Cincinnati, OH. He is the son of Russ and Lena Smith. He has an older sister, Michelle, and a twin sister Jennifer. They grew up in Novi, MI. Greg went to Novi Highschool and played soccer and ran track. Greg lived with his friend Eric after highschool and had three wonderful dogs. He worked at Fshbone's and Famous Daves before becoming a Maintenance Technician for Beztak. He currently works at Citation Club in Farmington Hills with his friend Mike. Greg and his dad race go carts together; he started racing when he was 12 at local tracks and ran the national circuit through the WKA (World Karting Association). He has raced at Daytona and MIS. Greg loves fishing; he and Lynnae camp out at Proud Lake every year for opening day for trout with his friends Mike and Eric. Greg goes to Tippy Dam every year for salmon fishing with his friend Dan. He also loves going up north to fish the wonderful lakes of Michigan!
Greg and Lynnae met while working together at Famous Dave's. They had a lot of fun working together and became good friends. They started dating and soon Greg was helping Lynnae study for her exams and making sure she didn't starve in college (thanks Lena!). They lived in Ann Arbor and adopted a wonderful dog, Bailey. They enjoy canoeing, camping, and going up north together. Their favorite season is fall when they can spend time with family and friends barbequing and watching U of M football (although these last two years provided less celebration!). They are so excited to be getting married and celebrate this wonderful occasion with all of their family and friends.

Do you like this story?Tweet
Ah, Once again we are reminded of the sick and twisted doctrinal decision-making of these Sharia ruled regimes. What's disgusting is that it's a total work around of the system. More degrading to women…letting Men get away with whatever they feel like.
This articla outlines the hidden "treasure trove" of so many men and women living under Sharia Law and how there are so many speaking out in blogs and online journals, that the Iranian government is working harder than ever to supress, or quiet these writing from evergetting out to the public.
So…Sex slavery…ahem…I mean Temporary marriages are rampid throughout Iran:
Even more astonishing, Iran's new Islamic-guided government has established a system of legalized prostitution, through the practice of "sigheh" or "temporary marriages," by which a mullah arranges a "legal union" between a man and a girl (some as young as nine years old) for a fee. The so-called marriage can last anywhere from one hour to 99 years. Under this system, men are free to enter into as many temporary marriages as they so desire, without having any legal obligation or responsibility toward the women and children that they "marry" only to use as sexual objects and slaves.

The Network
Every student has an individual network connection in his or her residence hall room. Newer notebook computers come with a built-in Ethernet networking adapter. To get onto the network, simply connect your computer to the data networking jack with a data cable. Once on the network, you can access (with your password) e-mail, the Internet, and other campus resources such as Hartwick's Web page, the Stevens-German Library, and Desire2Learn (eLearning software). Problems or questions concerning the network can be called in to the Technology Resource Center (x4357).
Every faculty and staff member with an office also has a network connection. There is also at least one network connection in every classroom, with many classrooms having enough network connections so that each student can attach his/her notebook to the network. Hartwick's goal is to continue to add more completely networked classrooms as well as increase network bandwidth to meet our academic mission.
Wireless networking is also important on campus. Below is a list of public areas where wireless networking is available. All are 802.11a/b/g.

And Now Some Network Details
The Hartwick Network is an Ethernet network, with an Ethernet Gigabit backbone. That means that each building is connected with a high-speed (1 gigabit) fiber optic connection. In each building there is a "wiring closet," where the fiber optic backbone is converted into 100baseT Ethernet which uses copper wire to bring 10/100 Mbit speeds to every notebook or desktop computer on campus. The end result of Hartwick's network is that every computer on our campus can talk to every other computer, including the Internet. We are using the TCP/IP networking protocol on campus, which is the universal language of the Internet.

Revision3 has launched their co-branded Miro Player! As if that wasn't nice enough of them, they've put it all over their front page too, www.revision3.com. Here's the official press release.
All I have to say is that Revision3 is a great group. They've been a blast to work with and they are psyched about Miro. Their co-branded player allows anyone who wants to get Revision3 content delivered directly to their desktop in high def (or low def for that matter) to just download the app and be instantly subscribed. It's available on both Mac and Windows. If you've already got Miro, but want to check out Revision3′s shows, you can browse and subscribe to all of them right now by clicking this button:
As far as we're concerned, this is just gravy. We're looking forward to working with Revision3 on an ongoing basis, as we continually improve the co-branded player's capabilities to give users a more interactive and immersive experience.
This is just another example of Miro increasingly becoming a tool that empowers both publishers and their audiences. Our co-branded players give publishers power over their own content while maintaining the user's flexibility. Someone who downloads the Revision3 player sees Revision3 content front and center every time they start the application. That's good, because they love Revision3 content. They can also, however, use the same application to browse and grab video channels from all over the web, and subscribe to anything they please from anywhere.
The Miro team is really excited about this, and we're really happy to have had a chance to work with the great folks over at Revision3.

A proposed new Stop & Shop off Route 132, long seen as a problem for traffic, could turn out to be part of a solution instead.
Walter Steinkrauss, director of real estate for Stop & Shop, told town officials the building has been scaled back from 79,800 square feet to 55,000 square feet, a few thousand more than the space the company wants to vacate in Southwinds Plaza. Parking spaces have been reduced from 390 to between 325 and 350.
Improvements at Bearse's Way and Route 132 would reduce vehicle stacking on the main thoroughfare, especially after the state completes the doubling of lanes from Phinney's Lane to Route 6. Assistant Town Manager Paul Niedzwiecki was cautious, saying that "traffic really is our number one concern" and that the town "doesn't want to make traffic improvements" only to confront pressure to allow more development.
Finding a business to take over the existing Stop & Shop is also a concern.
Economic commission and councilors anxious to make progress
The Barnstable Town Council and the Barnstable Economic Development Commission are both impatient with the slow progress of rezoning to retain businesses and attract others.
"It's taking too much time," Howard Penn of Puritan Clothing, a BEDC member, said when the two groups met. "The Walkway to the Sea took us 50 years. I see good things happening on Main Street if we get zoning, (but) nobody can look at Main Street downtown right now. We're not ready for them."
Later in the morning, Town Manager John Klimm and Assistant Town Manager Paul Niedzwiecki joined the meeting. "Downtown zoning is done," Niedzwiecki said. "It's being finalized. The next stop is the planning board."
There's even progress on rezoning the industrial park, according to Niedzwiecki, who said property owners there are discussing permanent deed restrictions that would limit accessory retail uses, eliminating the possibility that a future town council could rezone the area again to allow more intense retail use.
New restaurant to replace Polcari's at mall
Polcari's restaurant closed its doors with little fanfare, signaling its departure from the location it has held for many years in the Cape Cod Mall. The closing came as a surprise to Polcari's employees and the local community. The space won't remain closed for long. Pending licensing board approval, a new restaurant called Not Your Average Joe's hopes to open sometime in June.
"Hyannis has been on our radar for a long time," said Steve Silverstein, founder, chairman and CEO of the group, which plans to open its 10th restaurant
Legislators promise tourism funds to boost Cape
State Sen. Terry Murray of Plymouth, chairman of the Senate Ways and Means Committee, told the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce and the Massachusetts Lodging Association at the Cape Codder Resort in Hyannis she has been pressing her district's concerns, which include support for the tourism industry. She said a $2 million contract has been let to do international marketing of Massachusetts.
State Rep. Eric Turkington of Falmouth, new chairman of the House Committee on Tourism, Arts, and Cultural Development, said he recognizes the region's visitor base has become more sophisticated, with correspondingly more diverse needs.

Sephora Blockbuster Makeup Palette 2012
Another year, another Sephora Blockbuster Makeup Palette. The Sephora Blockbuster Makeup Palette 2012 for Winter/Holiday 2012 gets a revamp this year in a cube design and is packed with an assortment of beauty for just shy of $50 bucks ($49.50 to be exact).
Take a look!
This limited edition palette includes:
- 64 Waterproof Eye Shadows
- 12 Longwear Cream Eyeliners
- 6 Eye Top Coats
- 6 Lip Top Coats
- 48 Lipglosses
- 3 Blush
- 6 Multi-Purpose Cream for Eyes, Cheeks, and Lips
- 3 Multi-Purpose Luminizer
- 3 Makeup Brushes
- Mirror
I haven't indulged in one of these even though they have popped up consecutively for the last few years. I do hear mixed reviews on them. Some folks love 'em, some not so much. Sephora has improved dramatically on their makeup releases so I wouldn't put it past the palette being decent.
It's a lot of makeup for the price.
What do you think?
P.S. How about Teen Wolf's season finale? It was kinda a hit and miss there with Jackson for a hot flash of a second there but he finally got his wish eh?
P.S.S. With all the movie magic, makeup, and CGI we can handle why are the wolves in this show so damn bogus lookin'?
8/27/12 9:47 TwirlyGirly:
What's an "eye top coat"? I'm curious and confused (NOT a good combination for me).
I love the look of this. I bought one of their holiday palettes four years ago, and barely used it because the pigmentaion just wasn't there. Very disappointed.
But Sephora does seem to be stepping up it's game in terms of makeup quality, so this might be worth saving for. (Although these usually sell out fairly quickly, so I'd better decide if I want it and start the round of PB&J sandwiches soon).
Do you have any information regarding the dimensions of this palette? Even knowing just the dimensions of the cube closed would help in estimating the size of the individual products inside….
8/27/12 10:10 Lau:
Wow! It pretty much has any shade you can think of! My entire makeup collection could fit into that box lol xx
8/27/12 10:57 Cj:
If teen wolf killed off Jackson I probably wouldn't watch anymore. Anything with Colton Haynes shirtless is awesome.
8/27/12 11:07 Cj:
I say they kill off Allison, that girl is so damn annoying. And Lydia do Jackson will go to Danny for a shoulder to cry on 😉
8/27/12 11:18 Cindy:
This is one of those things I'm instantly attracted to because of the color selection, but I'm weary of trying because I haven't had the best luck with sephora brand stuff (Except their cream stain lipstick its amazing!). I'll just have to wait for a full review on this!
8/27/12 12:15 Stacie:
Ugh. Powders and creams in the same palette. Why do brands keep doing that??? I would want it if it weren't for that!
8/27/12 12:41 telle:
I wish palettes would have an option to become portable, like lorac's holiday palette from 2011.
8/27/12 13:29 Kiss & Make-up:
Just fifty dollars? Just splurge, woman, spluuurge!
8/27/12 19:47 Robin:
I really like this. I have their Hot Hues blushes and they are my HG. Might work OT for this!
10/14/12 18:30 Renata:
Hello, how do I buy this palette?
11/3/12 10:29 Aaron:
I can't find this palette anywhere on Sephora's website. I buy the new one for my wife every year for Christmas. Can someone post a link for me?
11/3/12 12:08 TwirlyGirly:
Here you go, Aaron! What a wonderful hubby you are!
11/17/12 14:40 amy:
I've bought a few of these Holiday Blocbuster palettes over the years, and they really aren't half-bad, with each one being progressively better. While they're not the best around, they're not the worst (especially for the price). There's enough product in there that even if a few are complete "duds", there will also be a few that are amazing, with several in between.

John Harrigan: 'We've passed the low point, and spring is not far behind'
DEC. 21 was the winter solstice. This is hard to find on calendars anymore. The date we celebrate Christmas each year, which might be a legacy from pagans - who better understood these things and moved gigantic stones around to say so - is always there in bold print, perhaps because of madcap shopping. I don't recall any shopping frenzies built around the shortest day of the year.
Just after Christmas, with New Year's not far behind, we had a cold spell. It was 10 below zero one morning; 12 the next. This is not counting wind chill, a recent phenomenon (well, "recent" in my terms, which means "not geezer-speak.") Here is where I digress, one of the benefits of being the longest-running columnists in this newspaper (39 years and counting), beaten only by Stacey Cole, who's been running in the New Hampshire Union Leader (different paper, same corporation) for 50 years. I'm fond of telling Stacey that I'll never catch up.
Stacey has a book out, "Stacey Cole's New Hampshire: A Lyrical Landscape," which I will get as soon as I can glom onto one. He is an astute observer and a wonderful writer, and a friend.
"Wind chill" was formerly reserved for Antarctic explorers and weather geeks. Now it has crept into common use. These days, when I see a news story about it being 40 below in Billings, Mont., I want to rush for the phone and ask, "Are they talking about the raw temperature or counting the wind?" Raw temperature, by the way, is when you dash from camp to the outhouse and come back raw, having left part of your epidermis on the seat.
The dry snow, at about 8 below, squeaked under my boots as I went out to heave ungainly and heavy pieces of hardwood, stump pieces at about 100 pounds, into the outdoor furnace. "Don't worry," I said to all who would listen, which were few, when I went into LaPerle's IGA to get grub and the Union Leader and the New York Times, all staples. "We've passed the low point, and spring is not far behind." This does not play well in Podunk.
On Christmas Day, I called friends and family, the former shrinking as time and gravity take their toll, the latter increasing with the new life of Easter to come. One branch of budding family is in California, entrepreneurs soaking up sun and speaking Spanish and more, traveling the world, another based in Washington and speaking Russian and headed for Ukraine. All this humbles the increasingly wizened guy (me) on the 45th Parallel who speaks only Yankee and halting French.
So far, among my gang of friends, after 40 years of hanging out together, going to camp, fishing and hunting, traveling to Labrador a thousand miles north from my doorstep, hurling ourselves all over the continent and beyond, we have lost only one of our number, not bad for an extended party of fools - young and old.
We all know what the New Year might bring, gravity and time unrelenting, but fling ourselves around and dance under the stars nonetheless.
And I, having just pushed another 4 or 5 inches of snow away from the furnace, heaved another few pieces of 50-year-old stored solar power into the furnace's gaping maw and crunched my way back to the barn, wish readers near and far the best for the New Year and beyond.

Comedy night at Stafford's Gatehouse - review
Posted: August 25, 2014|
YOU never know who you're going to get with Comedy in The Met at Stafford Gatehouse until you're sitting there in the audience waiting for the show to start.
It's kind of like a comedy blind date. Most men think they're comedians, some just happen to be right.
The line-up for Saturday night included Matt Richardson as compare, with Simon Bligh and Trevor Cook as the main acts.
Richardson put the crowd at ease and gave a reassuring feeling that it was going to be a good night. He asked the front row what they did for a living and we discovered we were in the presence of a top of the range sit-on-lawnmower designer, a plasterer, events organisers from the council and some guy in a leather jacket who every comedian commented looked good for his age - though I have no idea what his job was.
Richardson is already making a name for himself. He has co-hosted The Xtra Factor on ITV2, appeared on shows like Celebrity Juice, Nevermind The Buzzcocks and completed a 54 date UK tour 'Hometown Hero'. While on tour he filmed a series of a new panel show called Viral Tap for ITV2.
I'm no comedy genius, but I think the best comedy comes from simple observation and draws on real experience. At 23, Richardson hasn't accumulated as much experience as the seasoned comics, but he is still very funny.
Richardson introduced Simon Bligh first, who came off as a bit manic and creepy, which was partly what made him so sadisticly entertaining. He talked about frightening his daughter by reading Cinderella in a Dalek voice. He also shared the joy of going over his friend's house, getting their kids really hyperactive at bedtime and then leaving. You didn't have to have kids to find Bligh's act entertaining, his enthusiasm and wired delivery meant you were sitting with a smile on your face, waiting for the next laugh.
Ending the night was Australian comic Trevor Cook, who you could tell was going to deliver that dry, sarcastic and bitter humour which Brits love as soon as he appeared on stage. He looked world weary, weather worn and a bit like a geography teacher. He talked about the Great Wall of China, observing "it's a great wall".
Overall, we were very lucky to be landed with three talented comedians. The Met provides an opportunity to try out new material and it was likely at least one act would have fallen a bit flat. But for £10, even if you get to see one amazing comedian, Comedy in The Met is a great night out. The next one is on September 20. Give it a try. Tickets: staffordgatehousetheatre.co.uk.
