"It was an incredible opportunity, it was an incredible honor!" Jon Ferguson greeted sixth grade students and faculty with this statement as he shared the story of "Juanita," a Peruvian mummy known as the Ice Maiden, at an assembly held on Feb. 8 in the Aitchison Auditorium at Driver Middle School.
Ferguson, parent of DMS seventh grade student Colleen Ferguson, was part of a Carrier Corporation engineering team that designed an innovative refrigeration unit to preserve the mummified remains of Juanita. Juanita was discovered in the high mountains of Peru by archeologist John Reinhart and his climbing partner Miguel. Juanita represents the mummified remains of a 13- to 14-year-old "sacrificed" girl who had been encased in ice for more than 500 years.
As a result of a volcanic ash eruption from a neighboring mountain, ice had melted leading to Reinhart's discovery at this ancient Inca burial ground. The mummy was brought down the mountain and placed in a freezer where she began to lose moisture and deteriorate. Carrier Corporation was called and enter Ferguson and his three men engineering team. Ferguson's February 8th presentation articulated the many challenges faced by the Carrier engineers as they successfully designed and created a glass enclosed refrigeration case to preserve Juanita. Ferguson described his excitement upon being asked to be a member of the design team, "Once in a while we are asked to become involved with something very, very special!" Ferguson and his team remarkably built two refrigeration cases within ninety days. More than 70 people worked on the project which allowed Juanita to travel from Peru to the National Geographic Museum in Washington D. C. and then back to Peru.
The "Ice Maiden" mummy also was examined by experts at John Hopkins University where she underwent Cat Scans and DNA testing. Scientists were able to determine not only current ancestry but also what Juanita had to eat prior to her sacrifice to the mountain gods. Juanita is considered the best-preserved pre Columbian mummy ever discovered. Ferguson's exciting and informative presentation was a blend of science, history, cultural understanding, engineering concepts, and career exploration. The presentation included a slide program in addition to a variety of displays. Students had ample opportunity to ask questions and view the many display items. Ferguson's program clearly demonstrated the benefits of what can occur when modern technology and knowledge meet history and ancient cultures.

High-bush cranberry is a common sight throughout most of Alaska. While the lower leaves have three lobes, similar to a maple, the upper leaves are elliptical. The leaves burnish red in the fall. Small white clusters of flowers are followed by clusters of red berries in late summer or early fall. The soft, sour, red berries have a large seed and exude a strange odor. They can be used for syrups and jellies.

Highbush cranberry is an erect to straggly shrub that grows to 8' and is native to the northern US, Alaska, and Canada. The white flowers are in small, flattened clusters up to 1" wide. Red or orange fruits form clusters of from 2 to 5 frutis each. The fruits are hard and sour and become soft and mildly acidic after exposure to autumn freezes. They are used to make very good preserves. The fall foliage is crimson red.

Jennifer Hudson's ripped fiance, David Otunga, will be in the ring on April 1 at WrestleMania XXVIII in Miami for one of the biggest matches of his pro wrestling career. One person who won't be there to cheer him on, though, is his ladylove -- who he confirmed to Wonderwall, he'll be marrying in 2012.
RELATED: Jennifer Hudson & David Otunga, plus other celebs set to wed in 2012
Otunga said Hudson has out-of-town work commitments that prevent her from attending the main event -- which will air on pay-per-view -- at Sun Life Stadium, but she's already made up for her soon-to-be glaring absence. "She flew in my entire family as a surprise for me," the WWE star told Wonderwall exclusively on Wednesday following a WrestleMania press conference at Eden Roc Renaissance Miami Beach. "They are so excited, and so am I."
Otunga added that Hudson picked up the entire travel tab to bring those relatives -- 15 in all -- to Miami. Three of Otunga's family members -- two nephews and one niece -- will celebrate birthdays while in town, and he considers that the cherry on top. "I'm a family man, so I couldn't be happier," he said.
Otunga's already vibrant smile got even brighter when asked about his upcoming nuptials to Hudson. The couple, who share a son, David Jr., have been engaged since September 2008, but Otunga isn't giddy enough to give away any intimate details, including the exact date. "I can reveal that it is happening [this year]," he laughed. "I'm really, really excited."
RELATED: Jennifer Hudson Talks About Her Weight Struggle and Family Life
He added that the ceremony will put an official stamp on their relationship which he said is already as official as it can be. "To be honest, we have basically been married for a while now. We already wear rings and I'm never without mine unless I'm in the ring. It's just a matter of having the right celebration and making it our moment. I also want that moment of just seeing her in the dress and having a special day."
As for the skeptics who have questioned what brought A-lister Hudson (who won an Oscar for her breakout turn in "Dreamgirls") and VH1 reality TV personality-turned-WWE superstar Otunga together, he said he's not interested in what they have to say. "I could care less about what people think," he said. "The two of us fit perfectly together, and the rest of the world is just starting to realize that, I guess."
In addition to caring for their son, Otunga said he and Hudson also pair perfectly together in the gym, working on their equally enviable physiques.
"Ever since we've been together, we've always been health-conscious," Otunga revealed of himself and his fiancee, who has famously lost more than 80 pounds on Weight Watchers. "It's very easy to stick to a good nutritional plan when you're doing it together. We also work out together. She's the only person I work out with, because I don't like having a training partner, except for her. It's also kind of hot training with your significant other."
The couple may soon have another health-conscious athlete in the family: 2-year-old David Jr. "He couldn't be a bigger WWE fan," Otunga beamed. "He knows every wrestler by their entrance theme. The kid is genius -- it's amazing."
Speaking of wrestler entrances, Otunga will take center stage on Sunday likely wearing his signature -- yet skimpy -- pro wrestling outfit of boots and briefs. And he's not nervous at all. "I work very, very hard on my physique, and I have no problems showing it off," he said. "I train five or six days a week, sometimes seven. I love going to the gym -- I'm a gym rat. ... I'm a perfectionist. I want every detail of my body to be perfect. But it's not all about being big and having muscles. You have to have that refined look and the symmetry."
And in true WWE form, he concluded with a boastful statement worthy of WrestleMania's brag-fest ring: "I call myself a body scientist. And I'm the perfect specimen," he laughed. No doubt Hudson would agree.

Game Review on Jan 19th, 2013 - 1 person agrees
This true successor to Diablo I & II not just by the fact that the game stays true to hardcore arpg gamer needs, but also because Runic are the original devs of the original Diablo series. Buy this game and support an awesome game developer.
Mod Review on Jan 19th, 2013 - 3 people agree 1 person doesn't
This mod has come a long way very quickly and is the best so far for Torchlight 2. The developer also makes rather frequent updates and improves the mod with each release. Makes a new play-through even more enjoyable using a new class. Synergies has also set up a website which can be found at Synergiesmod.com Hopefully we see many more mods like this.
Mod Review on Jan 18th, 2013
What Clear sky should have been released as. Just note that the difficulty is ramped up quite a bit when compared to vanilla when playing on master so its not for your average gamer. Definently a mod a true STALKER fan can appreciate. Good job.
Mod Review on Dec 4th, 2012 - 3 people agree 3 people don't
If you haven't played this mod then you have never really experienced the level of role play that this mod delivers. This is not your average mod - this mod pushes beyond the normal level of satisfaction people can receive from regular games and brings a new benchmark for quality social gaming.
Those players that have not been banned enjoy a well-written and stable modification for ArmA 2 which is constantly being updated and has developers working every day to increase the level of enjoyment that its fan base experiences. Those players that have been banned have broken the rules in some way. Most of the banns handed down by admins are done so after several incidents and most admins give players a chance to keep playing because they understand that we all make mistakes sometimes. As for the developers of this mod - if you have seen the amount of time they invest in this game then you can understand the frustration they must feel when kids break the rules that everyone else follows and they hurl abuse at members of the community.
Role play is an art and it comes with experience i suppose, but admins understand that. Everyone is given their fair chance.
This Mod is one of a kind with no hackers because the administration team follow a well thought-out process to eradicate potential threats to the community. It really is the best mod for ArmA 2.
If you believe you are a gamer who wants to reach a new level of gaming and believe you can adhere to this mods rules which are not hard to follow, then this mod is for you. But be warned - tread carefully during the sign-up process. A simple incorrect email address or birth date can get you locked out immediately.

The Global Health Club sponsored a Summer Global Health Send-Off Night for medical students who will be going abroad this summer. Students typically use the summer between first and second year of school or in their fourth year to travel and be part of global health projects.
This annual event features talks by doctors active in global health, as well as second-year students who, having travelled the previous year, can offer advice, from their experiences. This year's Summer Send-Off included Drs. Joe Verghese, who works in Kerala, India, Linnea Capps, a new faculty member in family and social medicine who works in Mexico with Doctors for Global Health, and Erin Goss, a third-year resident who has spent time overseas. All offered unique perspectives on cultural competence and the do's and don'ts of international travel.
Dr. Johanna Daily spoke about travel medicine for oneself and one's patients, touching upon vaccines, parasites, common diseases encountered abroad, and how to reduce one's risks. Following this important talk the Remedy Club offered insights on how to take medical supplies abroad, followed by a Q & A with a panel of second-year students.
The option of taking four to five weeks to work in a health facility abroad, usually in a low-resource area, is an exciting one, but can be a bit daunting. The Summer Send-Off tradition is a useful and fun way of getting a lot of the questions answered and addressing the unknowns of travelling and working abroad.

Around Cook County
"Portage" recognized as Volunteer of the YearThu, 02/21/2013 - 10:46am
For the last eight years, on the last Saturday of every month, the classic country band Portage has performed at the Cook County North Shore Care Center to the delight of care center residents, family members and friends and care center staff. This wonderful musical tradition has been recognized by Aging Services in Minnesota. Portage was presented with the Stars Among Us 2013 Volunteer of the Year Award at the annual Aging Services in Minnesota Institute at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Minneapolis on February 6, 2013.
Portage was nominated for the award by Care Center Activities Director Kay Rosenthal, who explained that Portage has been performing for elders in Cook County and beyond for more than 10 years. "They have had a long standing gig at our Care Center the last Saturday of every month for the past eight years," wrote Rosenthal, adding, "And they know how to fill the dance floor—our dining room—every time!"
Members of Portage are Jim Spry, Butch Deschampe, Arvid Dahl, Tom Hoy and Joe Peterson. Sue Maijala was a former drummer in previous years.
Portage will be back at the Care Center on February 23—the last Saturday of the month—once again to share their talents. Rosenthal said a special celebration is planned at 6:30 p.m. that day to congratulate Portage for being the 2013 Volunteers of the Year. They truly are "Stars Among Us!"
Lodging and 1 percent tax revenues increased in 2012Wed, 02/20/2013 - 10:59am
After its second calendar year of being collected, the Cook County 1 percent recreation and infrastructure sales tax showed an increase of 9.2 percent over revenue from the year before. In 2012, the tax brought in $1,234,919.33.
The 1 percent tax is funding numerous projects throughout the county, including the Grand Marais Public Library addition, recreational enhancements at Birch Grove Community Center in Tofte, the installation of broadband fiber optic infrastructure to everyone on the electrical grid, improvements at Superior National at Lutsen Golf Course, research regarding the feasibility of a biomass district heating plant in Grand Marais, and a new community center facility attached to Cook County High School along with outdoor recreational amenities on county property nearby.
The three Cook County lodging tax districts brought in $916,917.52 in 2012, an increase of 4.9 percent over the year before based on the businesses that had completed their reports when results were tabulated.
The Lutsen-Tofte Tourism Association brought in $588,124.14, an increase of 3.1 percent over 2011. The Gunflint Trail Tourism Association brought in $110,058.06, an increase of 7.3 percent. The Grand Marais Area Tourism Association brought in $218,735.32, an increase of 9.1 percent.
Ely did not fare nearly as well. Its lodging tax revenue went from $260,540.75 in 2011 to $255,797.46 in 2012, a decrease of 1.8 percent.
Poplar River Management Board continues to work to reduce sedimentTue, 02/19/2013 - 1:22pm
The Poplar River Management Board (PRMB) continues to make progress on large-scale projects to reduce sediment from the lower segment of the Poplar River in Lutsen.
Ten contractors submitted bids for the next project, the Caribou Highlands Flowpath. According to PRMB President Tom Rider, the three lowest bidders were all very qualified companies. The contract went to Reuben Johnson & Sons of Superior, Wisconsin with a bid of $157,000.
The Caribou Highlands Flowpath project will involve the installation of erosion control measures along the strip of land between Caribou Highlands, which sits on a bluff, and the river. It will capture all the storm water originating on the Caribou Highlands property. The land directly adjacent to the river is owned by Lutsen Mountains and includes a ski trail and an access road.
"It's a pretty important project due to the proximity of this resort to the river and the scale of land and storm water involved," Rider said. The work will start this spring and is expected to be completed in June or July.
"We also have two other smaller conservation projects that will be carried out this summer – the Mystery Mountain Flowpath Project and the Lower Eagle Mountain Road Project," said Rider. A request for bids will go out later this winter with construction to take place this summer.
At the February 4 bimonthly PRMB meeting, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) reported on data trends regarding sediment levels in the Poplar River. Measurements gathered from 2009 to 2011 show a 35 percent reduction from previous levels. Rider said this reduction is expected to grow as completed projects mature on the landscape, such as the Ullr Tightline that was completed in 2012, and as additional projects are added, such as the ones to be completed this summer.
New Findings Show Poplar River Sediment Reduced by 35%Tue, 02/19/2013 - 12:07pm
Lutsen, MN – The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) provided updated data trends on sediment in the Poplar River to the Poplar River Management Board in February. MPCA has estimated that total suspended solid (sediment) loads have been reduced by about 35% since 2006.
The sediment loads from 2002 to 2006 was about 1,000 tons per year, while the average load for the years 2009 through 2011 was about 660 tons per year.
Tom Rider, President of the Poplar River Management Board said the report was good news. "We have worked since 2005 identifying the most significant sources of sediment and implementing best management practices and conservation projects."
The MPCA analysis suggests continued decrease in sediment loading should be expected from projects implemented in 2012 and planned for 2013. This includes the Ullr Tightline project that was completed in November of 2012 with estimated sediment reductions of 90 tons/year.
Grand Marais Park Board continues planning for Community ConnectionMon, 02/18/2013 - 3:47pm
The snow may be piled up all over Grand Marais, but that didn't stop the Grand Marais Park Board from discussing plans for the Community Connections walkway into the Grand Marais Recreation Area at its February 5 meeting.
North House Folk School Executive Director Greg Wright was on hand to discuss plans that timber frame designer and instructor Peter Henrikson had drawn up for a pedestrian bridge on the Community Connections walkway. The Community Connections project will lead pedestrians from the highway down into the northeast section of the park next to North House. Wright had designs for a covered bridge and an uncovered bridge.
Wright said North House never uses treated lumber and recommended that they use large tamarack beams from International Falls if the bridge were uncovered because tamarack is more resistant to rotting from moisture. A covered bridge would lengthen the life of the bridge because it would provide more protection from moisture.
"The covered is more expensive, but the covered is more beautiful," said Bill Lenz.
The board talked about how a covered timber frame bridge would look and how it would affect views of the lake. "I don't see it as an obstruction as much as an invitation," said Sally Berg.
Park Manager Dave Tersteeg, who formerly worked in the landscaping field, said he sees the bridge as a piece of landscape furniture. Board Chair Walt Mianowski said it would blend in well with the architecture of the North House. Berg said it would enhance the area like an architectural feature in a Chinese garden.

There is a strong rumor that two young Norwegian journalists will be on hand to take pictures and use some of the film for their interactive documentary project. At least that's what Sven said. Ole couldn't be reached because he was busy cutting lutefisk into heart shapes to give to Lena for Valentine's Day.
Uffdah, won't she be happy?

The Romance & Charm of Old Nags Head 1-800-368-9390
True Blue ~ this was a metaphorical term use to describe an honest and hardy sailor who was true to his uniform, and uniformly true. Today we use to to talk about a person who is loyal and faithful.
Three Sheets to the Wind ~ We say this about a person who is drunk, out of it. In nautical terms: A "sheet" is a rope line attached to the lower corners of a square sail. When the "sheets" or lines are loose, the sails will flap and flutter and the ship will wander aimlessly on the water."
High and Dry ~ refers to a beached ship or one that is in the shipyard for repairs. We use us to refer to an awkward situation that may have no recourse
Cranky ~ A crank meant an unstable sailing vessel. Due to either unbalanced cargo, poor design or a possible lack of ballast, a crank would hell too far to the wind. That is not good. In everyday use, crank usually refers to an irritable person.
Pipe Down! ~ The boatswain's pipe was used to transmit commands throughout the ship. Each one has a different cadence. The final call of the day meant it was time to stop all noise and activity. The "pipe down" verbal command was used by sailors and now civilians. It means, Be Quiet!
Blind Eye ~ During the Battle of Copenhagen in 1801, Admiral Nelson deliberately held his telescope to his blind eye. That way he could not see the flag signal from the commander ordering a halt to the bombardment. He won. When we use this term today, we are referring to purposely ignore something or someone.
Over a Barrel ~ Way back, before the resuscitation methods that are used today, a near-drowning victim was draped face down, over a barrel, and rolled back and forth in an effort to drain the water from their lungs. Today it means to be in a weak or very difficult situation.
Down the Hatch! ~ Means that cargo is being lowered into the ship's hold. When we use it today we are usually toasting an event or celebrating something.
Shove Off ~ In nautical terms it is the procedure of moving the ship away from the dock and getting under way. On land, you might say it, in not such a nice way, to someone you want to leave.
Blood Money ~ Money was the financial reward for sinking an enemy ship. However, the amount of the reward was not based on the size of the ship or the importance of it either. It was based on the number of crew members killed.
The Graveyard of the Atlantic is located at 59200 Museum Drive on Hatteras Island. Website is http://ncmaritimemuseums.com/graveyard-of-the-atlantic/
Yes, we are open for Thanksgiving and yes, as of now, we have rooms available. And you will not have to do dishes or cook or be stressed or have to talk to your husband's creepy brother-in-law this year. Book a room, choose your restaurant. Come down, eat, take a nap.
Guest Blogger today! One of the locals took a tour to see the wonderful, the beautiful, the famous Corolla Wild Horses and shared his thoughts with us. Reminder that Corolla Outback Adventures is a Village Realty/First Colony Inn VIP partner and that means you get special rates.
My youngest daughter, who was born and raised here, came down for the weekend and Saturday was "our day". While it is supposed to be "off season" here on the Outer Banks, there are still quite a few people here enjoying the good weather, lower prices on accommodations and of course, the beach.
Knowing what I know, after being here a long time...here is what I would do while on the Outer Banks with my significant other, partner, best friend, love of my life or spouse. And hopefully, they are all the same person.
The thing about summer on the Outer Banks, if flies by. It is already August, well, the end of August, and while there are still lots of visitors here, most of the families with school aged children have already been here. Our local children started school today and I think by next Monday, school will have begun almost everywhere.
It seems like one of the most popular questions we get asked is "Tells us where we should go...places that locals know about...not the places that everyone goes to". Well, that list is long and very varied but I will try. Of course it all depends on what you are interested in. For this post I am going to focus on museums, art galleries, etc.
We wait and wait for summer and then BOOM, it is here. But, it goes by very quickly. Many schools will be starting in just a few weeks and by the end of the month, things slow down...just a bit.
My best friend came to visit the Outer Banks last weekend. She has been living in California for the past 40 years and just moved to Greenville, SC for her job. She had not been to the Outer Banks since the last time she visited me, five years ago. So, we talked, we shopped and we ate.
Almost everyone who visits the Outer Banks knows a little about Jockey's Ridge and many have climbed it or gone hang-gliding. There is a lot more to Jockey's Ridge than sand...a lot of sand yes but, there are hiking trails, a boardwalk and a soundside access where you will find shallow, calm water. This is where a lot of windsurfers go. There are self-guided hiking trails too.

Here in Boulder, Native people used to hold inipi ceremonies on Valmont Butte. Then one night, a sweat lodge was broken up by law enforcement officials, who got a complaint about the fire and didn't know that Indian people have used the Butte, which they consider sacred, since before white folks came to this valley. Try to imagine being forced out of your church or synagogue in the middle of prayer. It was a desecration.
Once apologies were issued and it was established that Indians can, indeed, use Valmont Butte for sweat lodge ceremonies, additional hassles arose. The spiritual leader who ran the lodges was told he would have to get a permit for the fire before planning a ceremony. As a result, Valmont Butte has fallen silent, and songs are now sung elsewhere.[ If people had the proper respect for Native culture, the three people who died in Sedona would still be alive. ]
Who wants to get a permit to be able to pray?
Many Indian spiritual leaders worry that local and state governments will use the Sedona debacle as an excuse to regulate Native inipi ceremonies. Fire permits.
Building permits. Maximum occupancy regulations. Licensing. The potential list goes on.
If people had the proper respect for Native culture, the three people who died in Sedona would still be alive. And yet Ray and those like him — men and women who pirate Native culture — probably don't think of themselves as being disrespectful. Something about the Native way of life calls to them, and they respond, seeking connection. But too often they respond in an egoistic way, demanding rather than humbly asking and bypassing tradition in favor of shortcuts to personal fulfillment.
A dear friend of mine — a Native spiritual leader — has had strangers show up at his door, checkbooks in hand, wanting to know how they can arrange an Indian naming ceremony so that they can finally get the Indian name they picked out for themselves (inevitably something with "Wolf " or "Eagle" in it). He's had men and women come to him uninvited, holding pipes they bought in tourist shops, wanting to be made "pipe carriers." He's had people he doesn't know ask him how much he charges to run a vision quest ceremony.
If it weren't so pathetic and insulting, it might be funny.
For so long, the message from the Native world has been, "If you respect us and want to know more about our way of life, approach us and ask in a humble way."
How sad it will be if James Arthur Ray's selfish actions, which have already sown tragedy enough, bring trouble to the elders who have safeguarded these ceremonies for centuries.

Series: Top Gear
"This... is a car programme. There will be no cushions, there will be no rag-rolling, no-one will sing, and at the end of the series, no-one will have a recording contract. This is our new base, and this is our purpose-built test track. There are no traffic jams here, well... apart from this one, and no bus-lanes either. This... is Top Gear!"
— Jeremy Clarkson, First Episode Intro
"Top Gear: Ambitious but Rubbish!"Top Gear is an award-winning (BAFTA/Emmy) BBC magazine series about automobiles and motoring. It started in 1977 as a fairly conventional auto show, but after being revamped in 2002 (following a one-year cancellation in 2001-2) it took a turn to become more overtly humorous. The show is very popular, with an audience estimated at about 8 million per week on the BBC and around 350 million worldwide.The show's appeal, which extends far beyond driving enthusiasts or even car-owners, is the interplay of the three presenters and what presenter James May referred to in an interview as "self-indulgent cocking-about." In addition to doing more conventional car test drives and reviews, it has undertaken a number of segments which feature unique and humorous premises. For more detailed examples of what cocking-about one might actually see, please check the Segments page. The show also has an official, legal and above-board YouTube channel with abridged versions of various segments.The presenters of the 2002-2015 incarnation of the show were:
— Also Jeremy Clarkson
- Jeremy Clarkson: The Smug Snake, power charged-loving leader of the central trio. He's certainly the most controversial.
- Richard Hammond: The second in command; the moodiest member of the group, but also the most daring.
- James May: The Smart Guy, a picture-perfect Straight Man with a gift for deadpan delivery and understatement.
Becoming quite an international favorite, Top Gear has spawned a number of localized spin-offs:
- The Australian version, obviously named Top Gear Australia. Sadly canceled in September 2011.
- An American version, which now has its own page.
- In Asia, there are Chinese, Russian, and Korean versions
- Top Gear France debuted in 2015, complete with "Le Stig."
- An unofficial German equivalent called D Motor, which features frequent Top Gear Sixth Ranger Sabine Schmitz among its hosts.

System Center Updates Publisher 2011 (SCUP) is supported for use on computers with Windows Server 2012 R2 with the following known limitations:
1. Windows Server 2012 R2 includes Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) 4.1. WSUS 4.1 cannot communicate with WSUS 3.0 and WSUS 4.0. If you install System Center Updates Publisher 2011 on a machine with pre-WSUS 4.1 admin console and try to publish to Windows Server 2012 R2 based WSUS Server with WSUS 4.1, you'll get a WSUS version mismatch error in the SCUP log.
This issue doesn't occur when System Center Updates Publisher 2011 is installed on Windows 8.1 for use with a Windows Server 2012 R2 based WSUS server. To install System Center Updates Publisher 2011 on a Windows 8.1 system the Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 8.1 (RSAT) http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=39296 is required. Installation of RSAT 8.1 includes the WSUS 4.1 version of the WSUS admin console binary for Windows 8.1 and allows applications like System Center Updates Publisher 2011 to connect to a Windows Server 2012 R2 based WSUS Server.
2. To allow local administrators to publish updates from System Center Updates Publisher 2011 to Windows Server 2012 R2, you still need the same workaround for Windows Server 2012 as described here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh134747.aspx#PublishToServer2012
3. The updated version of WSUS for Windows Server 2012 R2 no longer issues self-signed certificates as described here: http://blogs.technet.com/b/wsus/archive/2013/08/15/wsus-no-longer-issues-self-signed-certificates.aspx
When using System Center Updates Publisher 2011 this change to WSUS affects the "Create" button for the Signing Certificate group in the Update Server configuration settings (see picture).
By default because the updated version of WSUS no longer issues self-signed certificates this button will not work. The recommended way to work around this is to use a Certificate Authority to generate the signing certificate. You can refer to this blog for a step-by-step guidance to create a signing certificate with Windows Certificate Authority: http://blogs.technet.com/b/jasonlewis/archive/2011/07/12/system-center-updates-publisher-signing-certificate-requirements-amp-step-by-step-guide.aspx. In addition to this recommended approach there is a way to configure the new version of WSUS to issue self-signed certificates described in the update to the WSUS Product Team blog entry referenced above. Once this is configured, the "Create" button should work as before. However as mentioned the issue of self-signed certificates by WSUS remains a deprecated feature and may be removed in the future.
System Center Updates Publisher 2011 fully supports System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager.

Thanks for the information. When will you fix this?
Kind regards.
The "create" button worked for me. I had no issues at all.
Will above link for creating the pki cert works for Server 2012 R2 CA as well ?
thank you
Thank you this was helpful. I am using SCUP 2011 and Server 2012 R2 and SCCM 2012 R2. I do not have a Cert authority in my test/dev environment so I used the registry workaround and it worked. I will try to use the CA option in prod. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Update

In this April 9, 2003, file photo, Iraqi civilians and U.S. soldiers pull down a statue of Saddam Hussein in downtown Baghdad, Iraq.
- Filed Under
Recent articles present a critical view of the war in Iraq. Now we read about not only the enormous cost of the war but the enormous cost of veterans. This cost should come as no surprise to anyone. During the 10 years of this war, there have been many articles about the poor protection of our soldiers and the poor treatment of our veterans. It is far too late for our government to expect any compassion for this debt.

Stanley Robertson (8 June 1940 – 2 August 2009) was a Scottish storyteller and ballad singer.
He was born in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire in 1940 into a traveller family which had settled there. His family background was rich in tradition, and from his aunt, folk singer Jeannie Robertson, he inherited a huge repertoire of north east ballads. He was the keyworker for the Heritage Lottery funded "Oral and Cultural Traditions of Scottish Travellers" project, from April 2002 until April 2005.
As an acknowledged expert and member of the Traveller community, Robertson documented his own lore and that of other members of this group, and promoted the cultural traditions of Scottish Travellers among young people, in schools and community groups, including young Travellers. Stanley's storytelling, however, was affected by the different trades at which he has worked, including his long years spent filleting in the Aberdeen fish houses, where he gathered many contemporary stories.
In June 2006, he represented Aberdeen University and Scotland at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington D.C.
He published three successful plays and seven books, some written in his local Scots dialect. He was featured in more than 100 radio programmes and 50 television appearances and made numerous personal appearances on stage and in theatres, schools and colleges.
On 27 November 2008, at age 68, Stanley Robertson, who was an Honorary Research Associate at the Aberdeen University's Elphinstone Institute, which studies human traditions, was conferred an honorary degree of Master of the University (MUniv), in recognition for the work he had done.
He was a frequent broadcaster and appeared regularly at storytelling festivals. He was an Honorary Founder of the Scottish Storytelling Forum. Stanley died at home in Aberdeen on Sunday, 2 August 2009.
A musical about Robertson's life by Kyle Jarrow and Bright Lights, Big City composer Paul Scott Goodman tentatively titled Reek Roon is currently under development, reportedly commissioned by Fela! producer Steve Hendel.

I love the Northeast Farmers Market because it has a beautiful array of home-grown produce, foods in season, flower bouquets, other fun things like pastries, note cards, jewelry, and lovely music. Also great eggrolls and spring rolls, as well as Maple syrup and plants. Everybody is friendly and the market has a wonderful ambience for shopping on Saturday morning.

Detectives are looking for potential victims of two Anchorage brothers accused of sexually abusing children.
Officers arrested Mark King, 56, and Craig King, 54, and charged them each with more than a dozen counts of child sexual abuse in 2012, a police spokeswoman said in a written statement Wednesday. Detectives found multiple victims -- family members and acquaintances -- whom the Kings allegedly assaulted going back to the 1970s, the statement says.
In September, police charged Mark King with 13 counts of child sexual abuse and, at the end of December, arrested and charged Craig King with 17 counts of child sexual abuse.
"Based on this investigation, detectives feel there are more victims of both Mark and Craig King, who lived together on Dolly Varden Avenue and had access to children through family members," the police statement says.
Police say neither brother had a job working with children or participated in local activities with children.
The detectives ask that previously unknown victims of the Kings or anyone with information on unreported abuse call 786-8900.

[disclaimer] Whether that makes it into production is another matter.....but I think it will.
As for not covering X. Presentations where only supposed to be 30 mins or so. If he were to even attempt to cover all that the auto industry has done, we'd probably still be listening to him today...

KDL Recommends
< King Of The Wind | From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler:35th Anniversary Edition >
Title: Kira-Kira
Author: Cynthia Kadohata
KDL Description:
Chronicles the close friendship between two Japanese-American sisters growing up in rural Georgia during the late 1950s and early 1960s, and the despair when one sister becomes terminally ill.
Amazon Description:
kira-kira (kee ra kee ra): glittering; shining Glittering. That's how Katie Takeshima's sister, Lynn, makes everything seem. The sky is kira-kira because its color is deep but see-through at the same time. The sea is kira-kira for the same reason. And so are people's eyes. When Katie and her family move from a Japanese community in Iowa to the Deep South of Georgia, it's Lynn who explains to her why people stop on the street to stare. And it's Lynn who, with her special way of viewing the world, teaches Katie to look beyond tomorrow. But when Lynn becomes desperately ill, and the whole family begins to fall apart, it is up to Katie to find a way to remind them all that there is always something glittering—kira-kira—in the future.

Iowa businesses are expected to pay about $104 million less in unemployment insurance taxes next year with a change in the tables that guide how much must be paid, Iowa Workforce Development said today.
It will be the third year of savings for companies, the agency said, with Iowa employers saving a total of about $500 million over that time.
The tax reductions are due to improvements in the state and national economy. Iowa's unemployment rate dropped to 4.8 percent in July from 5.5 percent in July 2012. ...

Podcast Yes, ScuttleButton No
There is, in life as well in the Political Junkie blog, good news and bad news.
The bad news is that ScuttleButton, America's favorite Waste of Time button puzzle, will not appear this week. Seems like lots of folks are off gallivanting during this Labor Day holiday weekend, and studies show it to be not an especially high traffic time on the Internets. Desperate as I am to find a large audience, I'm holding off the puzzle until next Friday.
But the good news — and yes, that's questionable — is that the latest episode of our "It's All Politics" podcast is up.
And, as always, there's lots to talk about. The Obama speech about the war in Iraq. The Murkowski speech about conceding the election in Alaska. And what the Tea Party has planned for Delaware.
And, speaking of labor, you can listen to the latest episode right here:

Friendly, Old-Fashioned Meat Markets Survive in a One-Stop-Shopping World; Meat and Greet
Mattson, Marcia, The Florida Times Union
Byline: Marcia Mattson, Times-Union staff writer
A Friday afternoon in Houston's Meat Shoppe sounded like this: The chatter of conversation punctuated with the buzz of a saw.
Owner Houston Stephens operated the tool, cutting pieces of meat to customers' specifications. He had just created a thick T-bone steak for Susan Nancarron.
"Every time I come here, that man goes back and cuts it special," said Nancarron, pointing to Stephens working in his butcher's apron in full view behind the meat counter.
Meat markets are few and far between these days. Mention the name to people under 40, and they're likely to think you're talking about a pickup bar.
But the remaining meat markets keep a healthy business by doing exactly what Nancarron noticed -- staffing the store with people who still know the finer points of processing meat and poultry.
"Part of the reason we're doing well is we're talking to the customer and giving them what they want," said Stephens, who opened the Oceanway store on North Main Street nearly 26 years ago and has another on New Kings Road on the Westside.
Stephens said he knows most of his customers by name, and also sees five to 10 new faces, such as new resident Nancarron, a week.
Meat markets claim their prices equal or beat prices at grocery and discount stores, which edged out many meat markets over the past three decades by offering the convenience of one-stop shopping.
Only 203 meat markets are left in Florida, including seven in Duval and one in each of the surrounding counties, according to the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, which issues permits for them.
Raymond Azar was one small businessman squeezed out after a big chain store opened in the same shopping mall.
"That killed my retail business," said Azar, who moved to Seventh and Hubbard streets and became a wholesale sausage manufacturer, selling to some local meat markets.
Grocers and discounters increasingly receive most of their meat pre-cut from processing plants, according to a report on meatcutters by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. That means more and more stores have few or no meatcutters on staff to handle customers' requests.
Meat market owners routinely slice hams or large cuts of meat people bought at other stores lacking saws or meatcutters. Houston's charges for cutting meat not purchased at that store, while some other meat markets do the work for free.
And processing plants are increasingly automated, which explains why some packaged chicken now comes with extra flaps of skin or ragged edges of exposed bone.
Meat markets get a portion of their meat pre-packaged, too. But Stephens said his store rejects about 15 percent of it for problems like "mis-cuts." And he, like other meatcutters, notes his store still cuts whole chickens by hand with a knife, which allows for neatly divided pieces.
It's a matter of aesthetics. And aesthetics are a huge part of the meat market attraction.
"Appearance is a big factor in food," said Gary Stake (yes, that's really his name), owner and meatcutter at Tillman's Meat and Produce on St. Augustine Road in Mandarin.
"I think it's going to be harder and harder to find cuts people perceive as fresh" with the trend toward computerized cutting, Stake said.
"I think that possibly will open up an area for the small market."
The aroma of smoking meat greets customers at the door at Tillman's, which has its own smoke room that prepares ready-to-eat chicken ($4 each); spare ribs ($10 per slab); or baby back ribs, eye of round roast or boneless pork roast, all priced at $4.99 per pound. The cooked meat draws weekday shoppers seeking a quick meal.
Stake is proud that his shop offers attractive cuts of meat as well as fixings that complete a meal. …

Growth charts
Do you have one for your kids? And for those of you who have older kids, how often do you measure their height?
We have one but are waiting to put it up until we get into our own home. :)
We don't have one. We are at the Dr. so often, they keep on top of that.
We have one in DS's room and we typically measure his height around his birthday each year and at the beginning and the end of the school year. Can't believe he's almost done with 1st grade!!! :(
