- Filed Under
In the Democratic-controlled Senate, the question was whether to allow the nation's 11 million undocumented immigrants to get U.S. citizenship.
In the Republican-led House, the question has become: Which ones?
In passing a sweeping immigration law last month, the Senate voted 68-32 to allow most of the nation's undocumented immigrants to eventually apply for U.S. citizenship. But as the House continues to slowly consider small pieces of immigration, one bill at a time, Republican leaders proposed allowing only undocumented immigrants brought to the country as children to become ...

We're excited to bring you another installment of our Team Titleist Member Spotlight, where we get the chance to learn even more about our Team Titleist members and their unique connections to the game.We consider ourselves very fortunate to have so many passionate and knowledgeable golfers on Team Titleist sharing their stories, tips and experiences with each other on a daily basis – and we look forward to checking in with more of you soon!In this month's spotlight, Team Titleist member Dennis "Deno" Oricchio lets us in on his fascinating history with the game, including his chance encounter (and golf lessons) with Titleist Advisory Staff member Butch Harmon more than 40 years ago.It's a great read, and just another great story from Team Titleist...
TEAM TITLEIST: How did you get started in golf? Who introduced you to the game?DENNIS ORICCHIO: My dad introduced me to the game. I would help him clean his clubs and golf balls as a kid when he came home. … My first set was cut-down ladies clubs. As I eventually grew, I had a set of Sam Snead maroon-shafted clubs. Still have 'em.
As my Dad always used Acushnet Titleist balls, I had a shag bag full. I would chip balls onto my neighbor's grapevine two doors down in a small Italian neighborhood. Not an easy shot. Sometimes I didn't make it over the clothesline next door. It was the only green thing I could see. Every fall, the old man would return the balls in an old pot when the vine would die and the golf balls fell through.TT: What's your best score and where did you shoot it?DO: I shot a 66 in 1967 on a public course. After returning from Vietnam, my relaxation was hitting 200-plus balls every morning and after work – it's amazing how that much practice dials in the irons.
I always drove the ball 300 yards with persimmons but the irons were in need of tuning. I had a sponsor and as per the old Tournament Players Division requirements, I needed a check made out for $10,000 a year for three years. Before they signed the check, I spent a month in Florida at their expense playing tournaments – but changed my mind. I worried about owing back the money.
My Army mate in Alaska got me to hitting crisp irons on the post driving
range. He was none other than Butch Harmon. Who knew at the time? I
saw his name tag when I met him and mentioned Claude Sr. (Butch's father
and 1948 Masters Champion.) Small world. We went to Hawaii and Vietnam
together. Never talked to him since.
TT: What's the best piece of golf advice you have ever received?DO: "Don't quit your day job" – To myself in the '60s.TT: Can you recall the best golf shot you've ever hit?DO: Well there are a few, but I would have to say a second shot close to 250 yards with a Toney Penna persimmon 3-wood, to a par 5 at Loxahatchee Golf Club in Florida. ... The road outside the club is Toney Penna Drive.
TT: How do you mark your Titleist golf ball? Does it have any special significance?
DO: I fill in the loops in Titleist with red and green. Touch of Italy.
TT: What's your favorite Titleist club in the bag? Why?
DO: The 4-iron (695 MB with Sensicore S400 shaft) for sure. Gets me around or under any tree on the course. TT: What's the most special moment you've ever had on the golf course?
DO: Every round with my Dad was special. Now the older grandsons are playing. Priceless. TT: Have any on-course superstitions?DO: Always have a 1969 quarter as a marker and tie my left shoe first. TT: If you had to play one golf course every day for the rest of your life, which one would it be?
DO: There are a few. If I could only pick one, I'd say Ridgewood Country Club in N.J.TT: How did you hear about Team Titleist? What are some of your favorite features of the community and what kind of things would you like to see in the future?
DO: I fortunately found Team Titleist from the Titleist site. Great place to pull up a chair, meet new friends, and learn all about new technology.
TT: Favorite golf movie?
DO: To laugh, "The Caddy" with Dean (Martin) and Jerry (Lewis). TT: Favorite golf book?
DO: Too many. Mostly biographies of the great players. Butch Harmon's "The Pro" is one of my favorites because he joined the Army to get away from it all in the '60s. TT: Favorite golf destination?
DO: Florida has been No.
1 for many years. Started school there in the '60s (University of South
Florida), have a place in Orlando and plenty of friends. Oh, Maui would
be great – but no chance.
TT: Favorite 19th hole meal?
DO: Grilled chicken sandwich – and a cold beer.

Game Of Thrones: Tom Wlaschiha - Get To Know The Actor Behind Jaqen H'ghar
Tom Wlaschiha as Jaqen H'ghar in 'Game of Thrones' Season 2 (left), and at a Sky Atlantic launch event in Germany in May 2012 (right) -- HBO/Helen Sloan/Getty Images
With those white-streaked red locks -- and that penchant for speaking in the third person -- Jaqen H'ghar has stood out as one of the most unique characters in "Game of Thrones" Season 2.
And playing the fascinating assassin in Arya Stark's life has prompted an unusual reaction from German actor Tom Wlaschiha's friends - compliments in Jaqen speak.
PLAY IT NOW: Alfie Allen Talks Game Of Thrones Season 2 Finale
"I laughed," Tom told AccessHollywood.com of seeing compliments like, "A man did a great job in that episode." "I had a lot of emails and a lot of comments on Facebook [from] people talking to me in the third person."
It's a fine reaction that indicates the impact of the character who first entered the series caged in mystery, and a testament to the German's talents. Throughout the season, he's brought a subtlety to a role that -- in the wrong person's hands -- could have ended up over the top.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Game Boys: The Young Hunks Of Game Of Thrones
"I tried to do as little as possible, because I was kind of aware of the dangers in portraying a character who has a weird way of talking, and who looks kind of weird and who has magical abilities," Tom told Access of what went into nailing the part. "I kind of thought, if I overdo it, then it'd be too much... so I just tried to downplay it and kind of think the things that I'm saying.
"I had no idea how it would turn out... I tried to play with Maisie [Williams, who plays Arya] and fortunately that's worked out really well and I'm really happy with the reactions I've been getting," he added.

VIEW THE PHOTOS: Knight Fever: The Sword-Wielding Men Of Game Of Thrones
As fans of George R.R. Martin's books know, the "GOT" Season 2 finale is titled "Valar Morghulis," a catchphrase of sorts from Jaqen. Despite Arya, Gendry and Hot Pie exiting Harrenhal in Episode 8, Tom's mysterious character returns in Sunday's highly-anticipated closer.
"Jaqen, obviously, [is] in the final episode and has a few magic tricks," Tom hinted.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Game Of Thrones Stars In Street Clothes
"I think Jaqen's got kind of attached to Arya and he knew from the beginning that she'd be a good candidate to be taught by him, so he offers to be her teacher," he added, careful not to spoil Sunday's twists and turns.
READ: John Bradley On The Changed Samwell Tarly
Just as Jaqen got attached to Arya, loyal "GOT" fans have grown attached to Tom thanks to his work throughout the season.
Following Sunday's episode, Tom has a role, racing it out in Ron Howard's 2013-due "Rush," alongside Chris Hemsworth.
His 2011 film, "Resistance," is also continuing to cross the globe, hitting the Munich Film Festival next month.
PHOTOS: New Character Portaits From "Game Of Thrones" Season 2
It's an exciting time for the actor, although his path to Hollywood wasn't a linear course. Tom's early life was spent in Dohna, near Dresden, in then East Germany, behind the Wall.
"Sometimes it still seems unreal just to board a plane and fly to America, because that's something that I'd always dreamed of, but I was completely sure would never happen, and sometimes, when I think about that, it still feels a bit unreal," he said.

Birth Place: Wellington, NZ
Murphy's reward was the most expensive production undertaken to that date in New Zealand, "Utu" (1982). Another boisterous adventure indebted to traditions from the spaghetti Western, it used violence, deadpan comedy and thrilling action set pieces to render a remarkably rich historical tapestry about a renegade Maori tribesman who vows revenge on the British army that decimated his native village. "Utu" was also a success, allowing Murphy the chance to further explore his interest in New Zealand's indigenous population by producing "Patu!" (1983), a documentary by Merata Mita, and consulting and acting in Mita's psychodrama "Mauri" (1988). His own penchant for the outlandish also continued ... Continue Bio >>

If you had Ko Simpson in your "first NFL player to get arrested in the new year" pool, you're a big winner today. The Bills safety even played the "do you know who I am?" card to police before being arrested in Rock Hill, South Carolina. It didn't work, mostly because identifying yourself as a Bill isn't exactly going to work in your favor these days.
Simpson says he was just checking on his friend, Frederick Hart, who was detained by security at a local bar when he sped through the parking lot while a fracas of some sort was occurring in the wee hours of New Year's morning. Sounds like Rock Hill knows how to party.
The most hilarious part of the story comes from what Simpson was allegedly shouting repeatedly to officers in the parking lot.
According to the ROCK HILL HERALD, Simpson was being a jerk to police officers who were attempting to apprehend Hart:
Simpson was in Hart's vehicle and "was being verbally abusive" to police, the report stated. He was asked to leave several times, but kept saying, "I'm Ko Simpson with the Buffalo Bills. I am worth millions!"
Simpson finally began to leave the parking lot, but as police were struggling secure people who were under arrest, Simpson walked back yelling and screaming, trying to get to Hart.
I love that not only did he decide to use the phrase "I am worth millions!" but also thought that the officers might change their tune when they heard it for the eighth time. That kind of thing always works on cops.
Simpson thinks the whole thing is bogus:
"It's not what happened. … Basically, man, this is a bunch of bull," he said of the police account.
When asked if he would go to court to get his name cleared, he said, "I don't know. I'm going to let my people handle that."
Good thing he's got all these millions sitting around. He might not otherwise be able to have "people" who can help clear his name for bragging about being worth millions. Going through all that might not be worth it, as Simpson was released on a $470 bond and is unlikely to face any real ongoing legal troubles.
For what it's worth, Simpson signed a four-year, $2.13 million contract in 2006. So he's worth the bare minimum that the word "millions" can describe.

After removing the central bolt, evenly pull on the pulley to get it off. Sometimes it gets stuck and some WD-40 with a little tapping from rear of pulley should get it off. TYry to evenly pull on the pulley, shaking it lightly if nrcessary.

December 1, 2015
Radar estimates were showing anywhere from one inch to three inches of rainfall scattered across southern and eastern Kentucky. It came in two waves, one during the mid-morning and early afternoon, and the other during the evening hours. Expect similar showers and thunderstorms again on Wednesday and Thursday. You can check rainfall totals below:
I'm growing a little more concerned about the current levels of saturation. After dealing with these very heavy bursts of rain this past weekend and this week, we are pretty full! Full meaning that the ground is pretty soaked. It only takes a couple of days like this to get in a sensitive situation with Mother Nature.
The general rainfall forecast over the next couple of days is possibly underplayed. At any time, some of these storms can and will produce heavy amounts of rain like we experienced Tuesday. That's what makes forecasts like this a little more challenging. Below is a bit of a model breakdown.
I will have more on Wednesday.

The Aggies are #9 in the newest BCS Standings just announced on the ESPN BCS selection show tonight and they're headed for a bowl game, but not the one some might have expected. Texas A&M will return to the Big 12 days they left behind just one year ago. They are now set to face Oklahoma in the 77th AT&T Cotton Bowl classic in Arlington, Texas on January 4, 2013.
News spread quickly. According to a tweet from Aggie Football one hour ago:
@AggieFootball: Texas A&M to Play Oklahoma in 2013 AT&T Cotton bowl - http://t.co/J5SOEyCq #12thMan
Oklahoma's football fanatics, Sooner Nation, tweeted their news:
@SoonerSportscom: Oklahoma #Sooners will play Texas A&M in AT&T Cotton Bowl on Jan. 4, 2013 at 7 p.m. CT on FOX.
Not to be behind in the social media whirl: it's already posted on the AT&T Cotton Bowl web site:
"It's Official: Aggies vs. Sooners: The 77th AT&T Cotton Bowl is sold out!"
All the Cotton Bowl executives are delighted.
"We hit a home run today," Tommy Bain, Chairman of the AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic said. "When our Team Selection Committee met for the first time a few weeks ago, we circled this matchup as the one we most wanted, and the cards fell in our favor today."
It's a bittersweet choice to be sure. When the Aggies were most recently in the Cotton Bowl, they were members of the Big 12, and they lost to LSU 41-24. Oklahoma is making their second appearance in the Cotton Bowl Classic, led by quarterback Landry Jones.
On one hand, just 12 weeks ago, most sports pundits wouldn't have even thought Texas A&M would be bowl-worthy in their first year in the SEC, but then again, not many people knew about head Coach Kevin Sumlin and Offensive Coach Kliff Kingsbury and their "Air Raid Offense," which was executed expertly all season by Texas A&M's Johnny Manziel, a candidate for the Heisman Trophy, and an offensive line that protected and provided exciting execution all season long. The Aggie defense was unstoppable at times, denying all the best offenses much yardage, particularly at home on Kyle Field.
Also moments ago, the final BCS standings were just revealed on the Discover BCS Bowl Selection show on ESPN.

Notre Dame is trying for 1st national championship since 1988 and their standing and bowl game selection was as expected. But they'll have to go through Alabama to claim the final top spot, and the Crimson Tide isn't going down without a fight. But then again, Notre Dame are the Fighting Irish; enough said.
However, the biggest surprise in tonight's announcements was the matchup between Northern Illinois vs. Florida State. Although Northern Illinois' former head coach, Dave Doeren, just accepted a job at NC State, after only two seasons at the helm, quarterback Jordan Lynch expressed confidence that their team would be just fine without their top chief and emphasized their right to be in their bowl game. Sportscasters on ESPN were particularly biased against Northern Illinois because their standing in the MAC was not considered bowl-worthy. Whether or not the sportscasters wanted it, Northern Illinois is there, with a chip on their shoulder and something to prove.
Texas A&M's Johnny Manziel will face a great quarterback in Oklahoma's Landry Jones, so it's going to be a matter of brilliant play calling and perfect execution. It's time (again) to play some football. The national championship is not at stake in the Cotton Bowl, but there's a great deal of school pride to fight for.
The bottom line on all the bowl games comes down to the "BCS rule": You can't have more than two teams from one conference in these games. That rule definitely seems to penalize a conference where you have more than two teams (e.g., SEC) worthy of playing in the high-profile bowls, but any changes to that rule will have to come next year. This will be the Aggies' 13th visit to the Cotton Bowl, so all the fans know the way to Arlington.
Tonight, the numbers are up, the invitations are in, and the television schedule is set. As the accompanying video here reminds us: let the holidays begin, in them old cotton fields back home. Look out Notre Dame, remember Texas A&M beat Alabama and as the Aggies always say, "Wait until next year, and Gig 'em."

ALBANY, Ga. — Desmond Muff was sentenced to 30 years on Monday in connection to a shooting outside Monroe High School last year.
Muff was arrested in connection to a shooting that took place just after classes let out at the school on Oct. 21, 2011, reports show. Matt Breedon, chief assistant district attorney with the Dougherty Judicial Circuit, said that the shooting stemmed from an argument that took place on school grounds.
Muff, who authorities said has connections with the Bloods gang, pulled out a gun and shot at Jamie Marshall, now 18. Marshall was not injured, Breedon said.
Muff has been sentenced to 30 years — with serving the first seven years in prison — after pleading guilty to charges including aggravated assault, carrying a weapon on school grounds and possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, Breedon said.
There were three others arrested in connection to the shooting: Lentavious Morgan, Akeem Hines and William Davis. The cases for these defendents are still pending, Breedon said.

If you happened to observe Norm Brodsky--founder of CitiStorage in Brooklyn, New York, and longtime Inc. columnist--out to dinner with his wife, Elaine, the two of them sharing a single glass of wine, you might not suspect he has an appreciation for the stuff. But really, he just hates paying restaurant markups. For 25 years, collecting wine has been a passion for Brodsky, who now has about 200 bottles in his personal stash, all ready to drink.
In the early days, he says, his strategy was to buy a few of the most expensive newly bottled wines he could afford and cellar them for a decade. Later, when Brodsky popped the corks, he found some of the bottles to be superb, others disappointing. Now that he can afford to buy older vintages, occasionally splurging on a $400 bottle, "I no longer buy on speculation," Brodsky says. "At my age, you don't want to wait."
Norm's Crushes
At the request of Inc., Brodsky assembled a case of his favorite vintages in a wide price range. You can find stores that carry these bottles on WineAccess.com.
- Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio 2003, $23
"This Pinot Grigio is a little too light for my taste, but it's very popular with guests. People love light wines."
- J. Lohr Chardonnay Arroyo Vista Vineyard 2002, $14
"This white is a little heavier than the Pinot Grigio. I'd serve it with food at a dinner, especially with chicken."
- Alphonse Mellot Sancerre Rouge "La Moussière" 2004, $25
"A good friend of mine has a house in Sancerre, which is part of what drew me to this red. I find it goes well with fish. It's feels a little tingly in your mouth and has a mineral taste."
- Alphonse Mellot Sancerre "Cuvée Edmond" 2001, $50
"Wine has to do with your palate and also with your memories. We went through the caves to get to the tasting room at the winery. When I drink it, I get transported. This is a wine I would serve only to people I know can appreciate it."
- Michel Niellon Chassagne-Montrachet Clos de la Maltroie 2002, $80
"Chassagne-Montrachet is Elaine's and my favorite. It's what we drink when the two of us are eating together at home. We go through two cases a year."
- Domaine Darnat Meursault Clos Richemont Premier Cru Les Cras 2002, $80
"This is our Burgundy du jour, although I never met a good Burgundy I didn't like. It is slightly drier than the Chassagne-Montrachet."
- Schneider Vineyards Cabernet Franc 2004, $20
"Long Island wines are up-and-coming, and this one has a cult following. It has an unusual taste that's very earthy and really good."
- Chateau Haut-Brion Bordeaux 1978, $300
"This is one of the greatest wines. When I served a bottle the other night at a tasting, I said to the sommelier, 'Taste a little less.' It's rich, smooth, and complex."
- Twomey Merlot 2002, $62
"The Twomey is a good, fruity Napa Valley wine. I found it through a wine store recommendation. If I have several dinner guests over, I might open a few bottles. People are conditioned to ask for a Merlot or a Shiraz. This is an answer to that request."
- W. & J. Graham's Vintage Port 1970, $180
"It's pricey and hard to get, but this is my favorite port. It goes down like velvet, and you can taste the fruit."
- Taylor Fladgate Vintage Port 1994, $200
"I love to drink this port with a cigar. The 1970 is richer and more full-bodied, but '94 was also a great year. That's what I drink all the time."
Top Pick
- Chateau d'Yquem Sauternes 1988, $450
"Chateau d'Yquem [pictured] is my favorite dessert wine of all time. The first time I had it was on the Concorde in '84. The '88 is a great year. This is one of the four to six really expensive bottles I buy a year. It's for special occasions."

The time has come for marketing teams to transition to revenue marketing—to play an active role in helping to generate revenue for their companies. They need to not only get leads to the top of the sales funnel but also pull those leads through the funnel and speed up the sales cycle. To successfully do that, organizations need a revenue marketing team that has seven essential skills, says Debbie Qaqish, chief revenue officer at The Pedowitz Group.
Those skills or roles include a strategic competency such as a vice president of revenue marketing, a business analyst, a power user or marketing technologist, a nurture specialist, a content specialist, a creative specialist, and a tele-qualifying competency for the "marketing qualified leads," she says.
"The whole notion of how marketing is transforming from being a cost center to a revenue center is absolutely here today for the B2B marketer," Qaqish says. "And as you think about that transformation, as you think about your own unique journey to revenue marketing, understanding what skills you need, what skills you have, and then how to address that gap is going to be a critical activity for you."
Listen as Debbie Qaqish explains the seven skills, why those skills are important, and the results B2B organizations are seeing from having such a team in place.

Hey, there, and welcome. Whether you got here via the QR code I was so geeked-out to include in my paraphernalia, or by a more traditional route, I'm glad you're here. I'm Suzanne, and I'm a creative-type.
My educational and much of my experiential background is in psychology and counseling, and I've been beyond blessed to work with some of the most incredible students and college student affairs professionals in the world. Really. For the past 6 years, I've worked in Aviation Technology at Purdue University, first as an academic advisor, and more recently in a communications, marketing and recruiting role. In the past few years, I've launched a student ambassador program, helped begin a learning community for first-year aviation students (now entering it's 4th year), and developed a slew of marketing materials and presentations. Some of my print and graphic projects are shown off here, and if you want to know more, I'm always willing to talk about the programs I've been a part of, and the successes we've had.
Some of the most powerful and rewarding experiences I've had have been those when I've created compelling visual images to tell a story – about a person, place, or anything. I'm enthusiastic, really outside any sort of box, expressive, and a few other things:
If you're a hard-copy type, feel free to download, and if you wish, print my resume(s). Remember how I said that I was outside any sort of box? Well, I couldn't just have one resume…

AA advocated the use of full black in prints, no doubt. But in regard to his own aesthetic, what he did not prefer, from what is in the literature that I can tell, was a large percentage of the image containing empty black space. For me, it depends on the image wether or not I find that appealing. But it is also no doubt, that he did not ignore the extreme ends of the gray scale at all:
"...the subtleties of the lightest and darkest tones involve the entire range of the paper's sensitivity, and often the qualities characterizing a truly fine print may be found in the delicate variations of the extremely light and dark values."
AA - The Print
That simply says it all right there when it comes to AA and his intent. And it all points back, IMO, to his use of the ZS and the command of craft to be able to make a negative to achieve such a level of self imposed perfection. One of the greatest things about AA, IMO, is that there were not any magic tricks in his brand of photography that enabled him to achieve that level for himself. Today, we have available to us: chemicals, film, paper, camera, and light meter, the same as in his day................like I said, no magic tricks. I personally strive for that same useage of the entire gray scale in what I do, I find that I am drawn to pictures that have it as opposed to those that don't.
Think about that when you are out and about. If you can't find a straight landscape that's worth committing to film, there might be an abstraction.
I think part of this discussion relates to the f64 camp vs Pictorialists and soft focusers.
Adams liked his strong blacks, sharp with detail.
Pictorialists and soft focusers aren't married to sharp with detail across the whole print.
In many cases we Pictorialists and soft focusers simply aren't even trying to convey detail where the f64 camp does. In fact when shooting the same scene we even obliterate the detail purposefully with selective focus or movements to emphasize the subject.
When the shadows are just fuzzy tones any way, they have a different roll than if they were shot sharp.
Edward Weston called them, the "fuzzy wuzzies".
rhythms in the abstract patterns on the rock face, while retaining the overall feel of a chaos. I placed high on low, and have given N+2 in some of those photographs. I feel that I have helped the viewer see what the eye doesn't easily grasp, while looking at those famous sandstones.
On the other hand, I have found that an unusual placement in more recognisable, natural looking landscape is trickier, and does not work as easily as it does in an abstract. I hope to learn more about it, from reading your comments, and by experimenting further.
PS. I hope I have not offended anyone by linking to my two abstract pictures. Apologies if otherwise, the only aim was to illustrate my point, as this discussion is very relevant to me at the moment.
Bill - You might want to try experimenting with a doc-type film such like Adox CMS for extreme expansion of a short scale subject. With less extreme contraction than we normally treat these films with, they can give you a full density scale within a 3-4 stop exposure range. I have a curve somewhere I'll try to find and post. I guess the problem would still be extremely poor speed though, compared to an extreme expansion with a general purpose film.
Shawn Dogherty: First, when I said that Ansel was an academic I was in no way demeaning his work, simply that his theory was stronger than his creativity. There is nothing wrong with that; indeed, to be that way allows one to be considered (justifiably) an 'anchor' in this field: a safe harbor that allows us to compare and contrast others with because he is a 'standard' just like the New York Times is a newspaper of record.
Rafal Lukawiecki, rather than 'hijacking' this thread with your photo 'Canon X, Entrance', you have contributed. I like the black in the shadows and this is a good example of how the enhanced highlights and 'no information' blacks contribute, indeed synergize, into a feeling of, what I will call 'aesthetic anticipation'. We are DRAWN into the photo in order to 'discover'. I am a bit confused with people who you said are disturbed with that black, though.
And Michael R 1974: I do agree that Ansel's work is, as you say, 'free'. He is probably the best pictorialist ever, although many might match him. He is a 'safe' photographer, without the fluff. For example, to me at least, someone like Diane Arbus comes across as his polar opposite. To me, Ansel Adams and Yosuf Karsh are really the 'same' other than for their very different subject matter. I say this because both sought a sublimated, enhanced truth. - David Lyga
An example of an Adam's pictorialist photoraph, negative and print 1929:
An example of not a pictorialist photograph, negative 1948, print 1963:
I have a feeling he would not like to be known as the best pictorialist ever, but that is just my take on it. :D

I have done some more digging and am starting to think it may have something to do with the size of the files being archived in the workspace - perhaps with how the files are streamed/buffered when being unzipped on the slave?

I also got the IllegalArgumentException on a big workspace. In my case, I narrowed down the cause to this Java bug: http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=4820807
While this bug seems to be fixed in Java 7, it still would be nice to have a workaround. Anyone else experienced this problem and found a solution (besides renaming any workspace files, as that is not an option for me). A clean solution might be to offer other compression options in the configuration of the clone step.

The 0.4 plugin is working well for me, keep up the great work!
I do have a question, however... is there a way to tell the plugin to use a known previous build number instead of simply the "latest successful", or "latest stable", etc. builds? In my situation, I may need to use an arbitrary previous successful build number; I'm currently using a parameter and fetching from the parent's specific build number's workspace, unpacking, etc. as manual pre-build steps... it would be nice if I could use the plugin and just specify a previous build number from the drop-down.

Ed Randall says:Perhaps we're not doing things the way Jenkins intended, but this is our build p...
Perhaps we're not doing things the way Jenkins intended, but this is our build pipeline:
1) Compile - checks files out of Perforce, cleans, configures for the target architecture and compiles. Archives the workspace for susequent steps in the pipeline.
2) Zip - builds the .ear file, verifies it, builds a complete shippable .zip of all project deliverables.
3) Quick test - runs a relatively short test suite.
2a) Zip is "promoted" if all tests in QuickTest pass. This delivers the Zip to the System test team (outside of Jenkins).
Now we didn't want each step to sync the files down from Perforce and compile afresh, the clone-workspace plugin seemed ideal for us. Unfortunately there are a number of problems with it including:
a) Only the latest workspace from step(1) is maintained. So if another change triggers a Compile whilst Zip is in progress, it could be that (3) Quick test actually tests that subsequent build and not the one it is supposed to be testing. This has regularly caused us considerable confusion as the jobs were out-of-step.
b) It takes so long ... our project is somewhat monolithic, including all binaries required within the workspace. The workspace.zip archive is about 1.5Gb and creating it takes around 50 minutes using clone-workspace-plugin vs. only 10 minutes for the actual compile, that's unacceptable. Un-zipping at the start of the steps (2) and (3) is not quite so bad but still 10-20 minutes. It seems to be something to do with the way data is piped between master and slave.
The solution we now have working is to replace this plugin by a shell script. This script takes 2 minutes to archive the workspace at the end of job (1) and 2 minutes at to un-archive it at the start of the other steps. I'm attaching it here in case it is useful to someone else, and to illustrate our use case which we would like this plugin to support.
It is simple to use, as follows:
At the end of job (1) invoke the script using "Execute Shell":
${JENKINS_BIN}/clone-workspace PACK "${BUILD_TAG}"
Optional INCLUDE= and EXCLUDE= filters can be used to limit the contents of the archive. We actually create 2 archives, one is much smaller containing just the information required for the "promote" step (2a) to work.
Also add a Post-Build action "Trigger parameterized build on other projects" to start job (2) using the parameter:
Jobs (2) and (3) are parameterized, accepting UPSTREAM_BUILD_TAG. The first task that each of these downstream jobs runs is:
Execute Shell
${JENKINS_BIN}/clone-workspace UNPACK "${UPSTREAM_BUILD_TAG}"
The archive dir must exist on the master node and be referenced by the JOBS_ARCHIVE environment variable.
The last job in the pipeline removes the redundant archive by invoking:
${JENKINS_BIN}/clone-workspace CLEAN "${UPSTREAM_BUILD_TAG}"
We also purge all archives from it overnight using a "cron" job, just to be sure.
Now the downstream jobs don't show the change history; that was solved by re-instating the clone-workspace-plugin but configured to archive just one file.

I am using this plugin to reuse changelog of an uperstream job for our findbugs job. The findbugs build job used CVS information to determine the changes. I include CVS directories (CVS/*/) explicitily but I always get CVS content ignored in the archived workspace. I wonder if that is default behaviour of the plugin or something I setup incorrect. Can someone suggest?
My include fileset is like this: nms/*/, CVS/**/*

When i change the Archiving method option to "Zipped" then i dont get the above error. However, in this case job2 does not recognize the cloned workspace as it is looking for "workspace.zip" and the plugin as ended up creating a "workspace.tar.gz" even when the Archive method was set to zipped.
I have read about this in other forums and they recommend using the "Gzipped Tar" archive method due to permissions. I would therefore prefer to use that method. However, if it is easier to make the "zipped" method work...then i guess i will have to use that.
I am using Jenkins 1.466.1
Any help on this matter will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

This plugin works exactly as one hoped for. Awesome Stuff!
I just wanted to have a view on how we can speed up the clone restoring process. Is there an rsync method we can have inorder to restore the workspace faster? An rsync would generally only update all the files that has a newer date.
The speed is an issue when in master-slave mode. The restoring from remote servers is slow, though not a deal breaker.
Any other options to speed things up a bit?

I'm new to the group. This was my first pregnancy and just wondering how long it took for your levels to return to normal? I was 9 weeks along based on LMP, 6 weeks based on u/s. Shortly after, I miscarried. My baseline 2 days after miscarriage started was around 5,000. I go back in 9 days. Hopefully we can try again soon.
Best wishes and thanks!!
(I'm sure everyone's numbers will have some variation and that there is no real "exact" rules to this.)

Love this piece, that little robot looks so lonely and brave on his journey. Great expression.
how did you learn perspective??? o n o
Browsing through my fave folders and just stopped by to say this is one of my favorite environment pieces from any artist. I love it.
Reminds me of the landscape on the MMO I play called Aion UK. Beautiful!
Great sense of space; I want to go there!
So cool and such a cool title.
wow, awesome work.
Wonderful calming piece
That is amaaaziiingg
Cool robot design...or creature in a suit. the landscapes pretty great too!
Lovely piece of work
this is quite good.
This hits a very special place in my heart.
I just like this. Seems peacefull.
Yeah, more art from you! This is beautiful, great work
Love the diagonal lines. That poor creature looks quite lonely. Great job!
This is stunning!
Whoa, thats just wow!
Oooh, very beautiful
Great atmosphere and detail! I love it!
fantastic work, wonderful landscape and depth - and a nice idea
Love the colors in this one James! You really hit the mark well done
That is absolutely gorgeous. I love the detail you put into the environment.
I love it!
I noticed the penis rock/bush waay too fast. Awsome picture though!
I love the scenery... and the emotion in the piece is moving to me... just in the way it strikes to me.
Great scenery
i'm in love with the diagonal perspective, as well as the juxtaposition of robot and nature. fantastic work!
Whoa. Wicked perspective, dude...It looks flippin' HUGE. I mean like, it's easy to see the transition in scale with distance. Nice job!

A 1962 Fender Stratocaster Serial number 88236. It is a sunburst 1962 fender stratocaster, with original case. (case is worn but still functional) The headstock logo was replaced in 1966, the neck is dated 2 Aug 1962 and the body is dated 1962. The Neck pickup was changed with another 1962 black bottom fender pickup as well as the vol pot. Original finish on body its never been resprayed. Has had a prof refret years ago and had a five way switch put in. The guitar weighs 7lbs even on my scale which is the lightest strat ive owned. Its a sweet sounding strat and has a dead straight neck that plays like butter. This is a very bad ass 62 strat sounds like a dream. I have priced the guitar very reasonable considering the market at this time and the economy and the fact that i need to get it sold. If you have any more questions just shoot me an email or if you want to make an offer....Payment can be paypal or cashiers check or wire transfer...No trades
Heres a little fender info about the guitar:
1962 brought a number of changes to the Fender Stratocaster. The most mentionable is the change of the neck. In August 1962 Fender felt the "slab" rosewood fingerboard was too thick, and changed to a thinner "veneer" style. Instead of the bottom of the fingerboard being flat, it was now radiused just like the top playing surface of the fingerboard (making the rosewood much thinner). This changed the Strat's sound a bit, making it less full and less warm. Also in March 1962 Fender changed from a hand-written neck date on the butt of the neck to a rubber stamped date. The neck width was also part of the stamp, most commonly the "B" width. Paint procedures also changed in late 1962 with Fender now using a "stick" to hold the guitar in the neck pocket while painting the Stratocaster.
Serial number range for the 62 Fender Stratocaster are generally 72000 to 93000 (on the neck plate). If you need to figure out the exact year of your pre-CBS Fender Stratocaster, use the serial number and the general features of the guitar. The serial number is located on the back metal neck plate. See the Fender Serial Number Info web page for help determining the year.
1962 Fender Stratocaster guitar specs:
- Peghead decal logo now has 3 patent numbers (2,960,900 added)
- March 1962 is the last month for a "penciled" neck date on the butt of the neck (only seen if neck removed). After March 1962, the neck date is now stamped with a rubber stamp, starting with the number "2" (to signify a Stratocaster neck). For example, "2APR62B" (where the "B" signifies a 1 5/8" nut width).
- Body dates are becoming less common.
- The 3-way CRL switch still has angled sides, but the bakelite material that holds the switch contacts is lighter and less fiberous in color.
- Neck screws change from being partially threaded, to being fully threaded their whole length. This applies to the tremolo claw screws too.
Mid 1962 Fender Stratocaster guitar specs:

Indian Festivals are celebrated by varied cultures and through their special rituals add to the colours of Indian Heritage. Some festivals welcome the seasons of the year, the harvest, the rains, or the full moon. Others celebrate religious occasions, the birthdays of saints and gurus (revered teachers), or the advent of the New Year. A number of these festivals are common to most parts of India. However, they may be called by different names in various parts of the country or may be celebrated in a different fashion... Read More
Our country is famous for its various traditions and varied culture. The festivals celebrated here are renowned all over the world for strengthening the unity among the people of India. Each festival represents either the cultural, historical or national importance and people from all over the world participate in these festivals wholeheartedly. As the month of November arrives, people from all over the world, especially India, get ready for the most auspicious time of the year.
November holds special significance for children as it marks the birth anniversary of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, which is celebrated worldwide as Children's Day. People of Karnataka have a strong connection to the first day of this month as they celebrate the Rajyotsava Day, which was the day of the formation of their state in 1956. First of November is also a day of merriment for the people of Manipur who honor the generosity of god and their heritage with the festival Kuki Chin Mizo Kut. Other important festivals celebrated in the north-east are Seng Kut Snem and Majuli Festival. People of Kerala have a gala time on 2 November this year, with Parumala Perunnal, their annual feast to commemorate the death anniversary of the famous saint - Bishop M.G. Metropolitan. Famous by the name of God's own country, Kerala, holds a grand procession from one corner of the town to the other on the occasion of Kalpathi Chariot Festival which is attended by travelers from across the globe.
November is an important month for people who belong to northern India. It is that time of the year when people come together and light the spirit of happiness all around the nation. The most awaited festivals of the year - Diwali, will be celebrated in every nook and corner of India and the rest of the world. People light diyas and candles and pray to Goddess Lakshmi for wealth and prosperity on this day. Falling two days after Dhanteras, this auspicious day is a great time for families to get together and have a great time. Followed by Goverdhan Pooja and another important festival for sisters and brothers i.e. Bhai Dooj. The much awaited Chhath Puja will be celebrated with grandeur all over Bihar and Uttar Pradesh along with the adjoining states of Jharkhand, West Bengal and Orrisa. Devotees assemble at the famous river ghats of Ganges and Yamuna to give morning arghya to Sun God and thank him for offering energy and suitable environmental conditions.
Ahoi Ashtami, which is a popular fast observed by women for their son(s), will be celebrated along with other Hindu festivals in November. The five day celebration period in Varanasi, on the ghats of river Ganges, Ganga Mahotsav, will also take place this month. The ghats are decorated with lamps and diyas to commemorate the event.
Prominent fairs and melas in Rajasthan like the Pushkar Fair in Ajmer, Shamlaji Fair, Bundi Utsav and the Chandrabhaga Fair, will keep the crowd engaged in fun and entertaining activities throughout the month. The lively spectacle of Rajasthani women and men in colorful attires and the rituals of these fairs attract thousand of tourists to this place. The famous Dadri Mela of UP, Bali Yatra of Orissa and Kundri Mela of Jharkhand are also worth visiting in case you wish to see the splendid cultural view of these states. A ten day cultural festival - Lucknow Mahotsava will be organized this month by showcasing colorful processions, dances and drama along with ghazals, thumri and qawalis.
November is an important month for the Sikh community as well. They celebrate the birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, their first guru, in this month. Some other important festivals which fall in the month of November this year are Kartika Purnima, Karthigai Deepam, Bada Osha, Kansa Vadh and Aanvla Navami.

"Another 'Historic' Florida town" Top 5 Page for this destination Cocoa by grandmaR
Cocoa Travel Guide: 44 reviews and 85 photos
This mural is on a building which is now a bank
One of the attractions of Cocoa is this park on the Indian River which is quite visible from the ICW. The playhouse is also an outstanding landmark along with the water tower with an enormous flag painted on it.
The first families arrive in this area around 1860. But when they established a post office in 1882 (at Magnolia Point two miles north) and they wanted to name the town "Indian River City", the name was unacceptable to the U.S. Postal authorities who claimed it was too long for use on a postmark.
"In 1925, the Cocoa Tribune published several accounts, supplied by readers, of the town's naming. A Mrs. Ruby Myers credited Captain R.C. May with the choosing of the name Cocoa at a town meeting in 1884. Those attending the meeting focused on a local product or characteristic feature of the area; e.g., citrus plants and Cedar Key. It was stated that at Captain May's suggestion, the group finally chose for its association with the Cocoa plant. The name was forwarded to Washington, D.C. where it was officially adopted.
"Another version suggests that while a group of citizens were seeking a name for the town, an old woman received inspiration from a box of Baker's Cocoa and her suggestion was adopted. Still another version suggests that along the bank of the Indian River lived an old woman who would supply hot cocoa to the sailors as they traversed the Indian River. As they passed, they would call out "cocoa, cocoa" until the woman supplied them with refreshment. Whatever its origin, by 1884 the name Cocoa had become permanently associated with what was then an infant settlement."
Additional history of Cocoa is on the Cocoa town website

Much of what is listed has changed in the past 3 yrs. Our D.J. has built a new site which will be up shortly. Until then, for accurate information on nightly/weekly events and drink prices, give us a call.
Nice page on an interesting place! I see that the oldest house "was built in 1888 by Miss Julia Roberts" - Wow, I had no idea she was that old, it's amazing what the plastic surgeons can do these days ;-)
