well acted
by Tom on 6/23/2012
this is a very well acted and equally surprisingly funniest and smartest movie. John Travolta has done a superb job with his character and personally I would think its his best job yet. Mike Nichols and Elaine, equally have done their best jobs on their side.

Archived Story
Businesses found purchase in AustinPublished 5:41pm Saturday, September 15, 2012
More on the early history of the YWCA of Austin, founded in 1906, from a report written in 1956 by Helen Baird Vance.
"Of major concern was the acquiring of headquarters. So, for $20 per month rooms were rented over the Bassler Clothing Store. The Austin State Bank and the Gildner's Clothing have replaced the Bassler Clothing.
In 1909 Miss Mayme Robinson, who was State Secretary at that time, extended the work to the County through a gift of $1,100 from Miss Helen Gould of New York. In October of 1910 the YWCA of the USA issued a charter to the YWCA of Mower County and the local organization became affiliated with the National Organization. It became incorporated under the laws of the State of Minnesota in 1919.
May 23rd, 1910, Mrs. F. I. Crane was elected president, succeeding Mrs. C. L. West, with Mrs. W. R. Terry, vice president, Mrs. J. H. Carstens, secretary and Miss Helen Banfield, treasurer. Mrs. Crane served as President until 1919. A Woman's Exchange was added to the activities and was a great success until the First World War, when it was discontinued. [Editor's note: a woman's exchange was a cooperative retail store where crafts and other homemade goods could be sold to the public.] In 1911, "The Gypsy Rover," a charming light opera with Mrs. P.D. Bealieu in the leading part was given as a benefit for the "Y." This was the first of many generous boosts."

OKC Thunder: Report card for Game 2
The report card from Game 2 of the first-round playoff series vs. Dallas:
Pick'n roll offense: C. Serge Ibaka, who scored 22 points in Game 1, got just two shots and scored only two points. The Mavs played the screens well, though Russell Westbrook and James Harden made them pay on occasion.
Defense on Dirk: B. The Kendrick Perkins-on-Dirk Nowitzki trial finally ran out of steam. Nowitzki got hot, the Thunder fouled him too much (11 of 11 at the line) and the result was 31 points on 19 shots. But Perkins D'd up on Nowitzki in the final minute, forcing him into a tough fallaway that bounced off with the Thunder up 98-97.
Defense on Jet: A. Counting the fourth quarter of Game 1, Thunder-killer Jason Terry went almost three quarters without scoring. His first basket Monday came with 32 seconds left before halftime. Nothing much came easy for Terry, with Russell Westbrook supplying most of the coverage.
Oddball lineup: A. Scotty Brooks had used the lineup of Serge Ibaka, James Harden, Derek Fisher and Daequan Cook only 39 seconds all season. Three possessions total. But Brooks sent out those five with 1:34 left in the first quarter, and the Thunder trailing 24-23. They promptly produced a 9-0 run, with all but Ibaka scoring. The lineup stayed until the 8:19 mark of the second quarter and exited with a 36-27 lead.
Fan comfort: D. The T-shirts waiting on every seat create a great scene, a whiteout or a blueout. But put an extra piece of clothing over what you're already wearing, and it gets a little stuffy. Fans alternated clapping and fanning. Hey, Mayor Mick, turn on the air-conditioning.
Aggression: B. The Thunder offense in the second half consisted mostly of attacking the basket, which is always good. But part of good aggression is not when to not be aggressive. The Thunder committed way too many fouls (28 total), including six in the first 3:45 of the third quarter, putting the Mavs in the bonus ridiculously early.
National anthem: A. The Thunder pulled out a heavy hitter, Philip Bailey, a 40-year member of the classic rock band Earth, Wind & Fire. He sang a unique, high-pitched version of "The Star-Spangled Banner" that had the crowd cheering.
Fixing bugaboos: C. Dallas exploited the Thunder's weaknesses — ball security and rebounding opponents' shots. The Thunder committed 16 turnovers, leading to 16 Dallas points. And the Mavs had 12 offensive rebounds, outscoring OKC 17-6 on second-chance points.

Since the Senate returned from recess seven days ago, it has confirmed a remarkable 13 presidential nominees, all of whom would have been blocked by Republican filibuster just four weeks ago. And it's moving quickly to confirm 11 more before the Senate recesses for the year. This is what the post-nuclear Senate looks like.
Before Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid detonated the so-called "nuclear option" just before Thanksgiving, President Obama's nominees could expect a confirmation process as slow as molasses — if they made it through at all. As of October, there were 42 court nominees who still hadn't been taken up by the Judiciary Committee, let alone the full Senate, and a backlog of 19 nominations for vacancies identified as "judicial emergencies." Nominees for both executive and judicial positions often had to wait for months or even more than a year for confirmation, leading many to choose to withdraw their names from consideration.
It's hardly a new problem. A commission on public service chaired by former Fed Chairman Paul Volcker released a report in 2003 identifying what it called the "presidential appointee problem," noting that "the appointments process is very slow" due to extra vetting from the legislative and executive branches in recent years. It's gotten much worse since then.
In November, Reid and Senate Democrats voted to change the rules by weakening the filibuster and thus removing the de facto 60-vote threshold needed to confirm judicial and executive nominees (they made an exception for Supreme Court picks). Republicans have thrown a fit, but Democrats say the spate of post-nuclear confirmations show exactly why the rules needed to change.
Take Jeh Johnson, whom the Senate confirmed Monday night to lead the Department of Homeland Security. The Senate first voted to end debate on his nomination via cloture, where Johnson received 57 votes to 37 — not enough under the old rules. But thanks to the new rules, the process moved forward and moments later, the Senate voted on the actual confirmation, where Johnson received 78 votes to 16. That suggests that there were at least 20 Republicans who wanted to confirm Johnson, but would have blocked his nomination for one reason or another if they still could.
The post-nuclear Senate also made short work of other top-tier nominees Republicans had been obstructing, like Patricia Millett to sit on the powerful D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals and Mel Watt to head the Federal Housing Finance Agency.
And those in the next batch include John Koskinen, picked to be commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service, a spot Republicans were sure to make hay of. And perhaps most importantly of all, Janet Yellen, who will become arguably the most powerful woman in the world when confirmed to head the Federal Reserve.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell vowed revenge when Democrats changed the rules, but so far the retribution has been more annoying than genuinely painful, making senators stay up late to vote at 2 and 7 a.m.
Republicans plan to use their caucus lunch Tuesday to plot their next move. They could continue running out the clock, and keep the Senate in session through Christmas, but neither side really wants that.
They've also threatened to obstruct committee business, but lacked unity among GOP ranking members for a real boycott, since many think committee business is too important to be put on hold for political reasons. Another option would be to send all pending nominations back to the White House at the end of the year.
Regardless of what they chose to do, Republicans can only delay things momentarily. All of Obama's nominees that Reid moved forward will be confirmed relatively shortly.
That's good for Democrats, but their fortunes will almost certainly be reversed when Republicans eventually take control of Senate, whether that's next year or sometime in the distant future.
In the grand scheme, the rules change will be a wash politically. But it's a win for anyone concerned about the government and courts' ability to function without leadership.

Ten million dollars, plus another $1.5 million for the broker who will "develop and obtain" the policy. The concern: mass protests could lead to mass arrests, which could then lead to civil rights claims against the city.

Book three in the magnificent Empire Trilogy by best-selling authors Raymond E. Feist and Janny Wurts. Welcome to the final play of the game. Now revered as the Servant of the Empire, Mara of the Acoma is in more danger than ever before. Not only does she face threats from the brotherhood of assassins and the cunning spies of rival ruling houses, but she has attracted the attention of the awesome Assembly of Magicians, who see her as a threat to their power.
But Mara has not reached her position through luck or accident of fate. Surrounded on all sides by enemies determined to bring her down, Mara must draw on her deepest resources to secure her place as Mistress of the Empire once and for all.
Mistress of the Empire is the stunning final book in Feist and Wurts' epic trilogy - one of the most successful fantasy collaborations of all time.

There are no listener reviews for this title yet.
"Regarded as a brilliant standalone!"
I am not ashamed to say, I did not read the prequels to this Book 3 of the Empire Trilogy - Daughter of the Empire and Servant of the Empire. However, perhaps it's because I did not, that I found the Mistress of the Empire and the characters to be so unexpectedly fascinating and witty. Perhaps if I had read the other Books, I may not have been so frequently lost with the numerous names/characters, understood a little more of warring factions/houses and the true extent of the political and emotional turmoil experienced by the characters; I might have also appreciated the fantasy world so vividly described. Notwithstanding, because the authors possess such astounding skill and intellect, reflecting ever so often to events or issues that arose in the previous Books, I was able to absorb and thoroughly enjoy this Book 3, appreciating the different dynamics to the gripping tale; that of politics, altruism, economics (trade, commerce, slavery), war (fighting/action), culture ( rich, ingrained, different and competitive), romance, loss, loyalty, epic fantasy (featuring magic and mystical creatures), etc - this Book/Trilogy is so "all-encompassing", there's something to keep everyone engaged!!. I do not think reading the end of the Trilogy first will put me off reading the other Books, if anything, I'm now feeling compelled to start it from the beginning and will be excited to read the last Book again!!
"Very detailed and political"
Better than the previous book in the series but still very detailed and a lot of political rambling!
"Excellent read"
Excellent story with lots of twist's. Janny adds a new dimension to a brilliant series.
"best of aw"
of the three bools all of which were superb this was by far the best and in fact the greatest book i have heard to date
"my favourite series."
could not stop. so enthralling and unique. loved it. a good portion of my all time favourite characters are in it. and the nestalgic connection to the other side of the rift made me smile at wvery miniscule mention. true piece of art that everyone should read.
really enjoyed can't wait to get the next book. . ...
"the best book from the series by far 👍👍👍"
the best book I've ever read. The last 10 chapters I had to listen to it without interuption. i cant explain it, just read it and you will understand.
"Loved it"
What a world to be thrown into, reminds me very much of samurai and there culture

Kernel Korner - Network Programming in the Kernel
All Linux distributions provide a wide range of network applications—from dæmons that provide a variety of services such as WWW, mail and SSH to client programs that access one or more of these services. These programs are written in user mode and use the system calls provided by the kernel to perform various operations like network read and write. Although this is the traditional method of writing programs, there is another interesting way to develop these applications by implementing them in the kernel. The TUX Web server is a good example of an application that runs inside the kernel and serves static content. In this article, we explain the basics of writing network applications within the kernel and their advantages and disadvantages. As an example, we explain the implementation of an in-kernel FTP client.
Why would one want to implement applications within the kernel? Here are a few advantages:
When a user-space program makes a system call, there is some overhead associated in the user-space/kernel-space transition. By programming all functionality in the kernel, we can make gains in performance.
The data corresponding to any application that sends or receives packets is copied from user mode to kernel mode and vice versa. By implementing network applications within the kernel, it is possible to reduce such overhead and increase efficiency by not copying data to user mode.
In specific research and high-performance computing environments, there is a need for achieving data transfers at great speeds. Kernel applications find use in such situations.
On the other hand, in-kernel implementations have certain disadvantages:
Security is a primary concern within the kernel, and a large class of user-mode applications are not suitable to be run directly in the kernel. Consequently, special care needs to be taken while designing in-kernel applications. For example, reading and writing to files within the kernel is usually a bad idea, but most applications require some kind of file I/O.
Large applications cannot be implemented in the kernel due to memory constraints.
Network programming is usually done with sockets. A socket serves as a communication end point between two processes. In this article, we describe network programming with TCP/IP sockets.
Server programs create sockets, bind to well-known ports, listen and accept connections from clients. Servers are usually designed to accept multiple connections from clients—they either fork a new process to serve each client request (concurrent servers) or completely serve one request before accepting more connections (iterative servers). Client programs, on the other hand, create sockets to connect to servers and exchange information.
Let's take a quick look at how an FTP client and server are implemented in user mode. We discuss only active FTP in this article. The differences between active and passive FTP are not relevant to our discussion of network programming here.
Here is a brief explanation of the design of an FTP client and server. The server program creates a socket using the socket() system call. It then binds on a well-known port using bind() and waits for connections from clients using the listen() system call. The server then accepts incoming requests from clients using accept() and forks a new process (or thread) to serve each incoming client request.
The client program creates a control socket using socket() and next calls connect() to establish a connection with the server. It then creates a separate socket for data transfer using socket() and binds to an unprivileged port (>1024) using bind(). The client now listen()s on this port for data transfer from the server. The server now has enough knowledge to honor a data transfer request from the client. Finally, the client uses accept() to accept connections from the server to send and receive data. For sending and receiving data, the client and server use the write() and read() or sendmsg() and recvmsg() system calls. The client issues close() on all open sockets to tear down its connection to the server. Figure 1 sums it up.
Fail to create dynamic system call
Hi everyone,
Has anyone tried this code themselves? I failed to insert that system call dynamically (but succeeded to compile and insmod the module).
I am wondering if anyone know what's going on there.
PS: I am using Linux 2.6.29 in Ubuntu.
Thanks in advance,
kernel raw sockets
I am new to linux kernel development. so if any mistakes you find, pls
frgive it and correct me.
I wanted to send raw packets through ethernet, from kernel level.
So i use PF_PACKET family. & SOCK_RAW.And i used sock_create()
function to create socket.
But I found that when i create socket with
sock_create(PF_PACKET,SOCK_RAW,.....) the program always fails in
bind. (when i do sock->ops->bind(.....))
why is it so ? but when I use PF_INET & SOCK_PACKET to create socket.
bind happens successfully.
Can any one help me to come out of this issue?? OR direct me to create
raw packets and send from kernel??
thanks in advance
create_address doesn't exist
The function create_address doesn't exist in my kernel header (2.6.17). Where should I get the definition?
It's true.Create_address is
It's true.Create_address is not in Kernel Header.
Has anyone found how to get it?
Please reply
insmod 'ing the module
In your example you don't actually use insmod after building the module, does that mean its not necessary? If not then how does the userland program see the system call. If so then do you know why it insmod'ing it would freeze my system? Cause it does. I did fiddle with the code a bit, mostly stripped it down to just connect, send a message, and close.
Problem was redefining the
Problem was redefining the system call. Seems linux doesn't appreciate it none too much and freezes. I've read its not really done anymore anyway.

In modern computer systems, privacy and security are mandatory. However, connections from the outside over public networks automatically imply risks. One easily available solution to avoid eavesdroppers' attempts is SSH. But, its wide adoption during the past 21 years has made it a target for attackers, so hardening your system properly is a must.
Additionally, in highly regulated markets, you must comply with specific operational requirements, proving that you conform to standards and even that you have included new mandatory authentication methods, such as two-factor authentication. In this ebook, I discuss SSH and how to configure and manage it to guarantee that your network is safe, your data is secure and that you comply with relevant regulations.Get the Guide

So here we have everyone's favorite SHIELD agent. I got this idea for him immediatelly after seeing Avengers last year. He's a Heroes Noah Bennet body with ROML Steve Rogers head. I think this is the best possible Coulson head this side of Hot Toys (which isn't all that perfect by the way). So it's kinda funny and a bummer that after paiting it, and receding the hairline a bit, it looks less like Clark Gregg than it did before. Oh well, still, it's pretty good for a stand in.
And one more thing, I gave the Bennet body bicep swivels using magnets. And his ID tag is removable.

We went to visit Alexis because she said she had a couple curve monsters over. Her gal pals were so curvy I had to pull out a protractor just to figure out some of those angles. Nice round tits. Bodacious asses. They had it all. She told me to bring along some friends and right there that let me know she was all about having a good time that afternoon. We all sunbathed in her backyard and got to know each other with a quick impromptu photo shoot. The girls felt comfortable and got really hot and horny. CJ and Will took full advantage of the situation and covered those awesome bodies in oil. The hot tub just sent them completely over the top and they all started tugging at swim trunks. CJ and Will got to ride the curves and enjoy the booty buffet.

This is a continuation in part of application Ser. No. 07/341,481 filed Apr. 21, 1989, entitled PLANT WATERING DEVICE.
This invention relates to automatic watering apparatus for growing plants, particularly potted plants, by means responsive to dampness of the soil or growing medium watered thereby. Dampness of the soil or growing medium is sensed in comparison with `field capacity,` which is a condition in which the soil is saturated to the point where it can hold no more water against the pull of gravity. The dampness requirement varies with different plants, and in most all situations is a condition substantially less than field capacity, it being a general object of this invention to control soil dampness as may be required.
`Field Capacity` refers to a condition in which each soil particle holds the maximum amount of water film against the pull of gravity, the amount of air space in the soil being low. As plant roots and evaporation withdraw water from the soil, the film of water becomes thinner and more space is gained for soil air. When the film becomes so thin that its molecular attraction to the soil particles is stronger than the root tips ability to extract it, the plant will wilt even though some water remains in the soil. During the stages in which soil dries from field capacity to the wilting point, the plant has sufficient water for healthy growth. Field capacity varies by soil type; clay soil with many fine particles holds more water than sandy soil with fewer, courser particles, and loamy soils which contain a mixture of particle sizes have an intermediate field capacity.
Heretofore, automatic and self watering devices for potted plants have involved wicks, water transfer tubes, and air displacement tubes controlled by porous elements, and characterized by complexity and subject to malfunction due to clogging of the water tube and/or air tube. And, with the use of wicks alone it is difficult- to control soil moisture levels.
The Crane Jr. U.S. Pat. No. 3,758,987 issued Sept. 18, 1973 is an example of the prior art, wherein a moisture sensor buried in the soil controls the entry of displacement air into a substantially airtight tank permitted to discharge water into the soil through a filter. Though the Crane Jr. principle is workable, it is subject to malfunction due to the passage of some water through the porous element, so that the air tube becomes clogged with the accumulation of water which cannot be readily displaced by the available pressure differential. That is, the porous element of Crane Jr. allows water to collect in the air transfer tube supplying air to the closed water reservoir. Another problem with the Crane Jr. principle is that a meniscus will form near the discharge filter and thereby obstruct the flow of water into the soil or growing medium. It is therefore an object of this invention to eliminate the entry of water into the air transfer tube, by the provision of a protective air suction control means, and to preclude said meniscus, and to these ends I provide a hydrophobic element following the aforesaid hydrophilic element, and preferably with a liquid entrapment chamber therebetween.
The Endling U.S. Pat. No. 4,344,251 issued Aug. 17, 1982 is an example of the prior art, wherein a water transfer wick is buried in the soil for the gradual delivery of water therethrough, but lacking a method of restraining the flow of water between the reservoir and soil or growing medium. Consequently, water delivery into the soil will continue until field capacity is reached, which is deleterious to most all plants. Therefore, it is an object of this invention to combine wick water transfer with the aforesaid air suction control means, and to this end I provide a wick water control means responsive to the controlled delivery of supply water to effectively immerse and wet and saturate the wick for water transfer as circumstances require. Accordingly, the wick does not continuously transfer water, but is responsive to the soil dampness as sensed by the air suction control means.
Experiments with various types of wicking products indicated natural fibrous materials deteriorated within a few months. Materials displaying the greatest longevity were made of polyester or bonded acetate. It was also noted that the density of the wicking material determined the rapidity at which fluid was transferred. For example, the bonded material originally used as ink reservoir material as produced by American Filtrona in Richmond, Va. can easily transfer a liter of water, not containing particulate material, per hour.
During tests in which porous hydrophilic materials were evaluated, it was discovered that the pores in this material became encumbered quickly when a several cubic centimeters of soil water flowed through the porous rod into the air tube as would occur in the daily use of the Crain Jr. patent. Dramatically restricting the flow-through characteristic of the air valve by placing a hydrophobic membrane behind the hydrophilic rod significantly increased the length of time the air valve continued to function.
The air suction control means and the wick water control means can be embodied in a variety of ways, directly into the garden soil or into the growing medium of a planter box or pot. As shown and described herein, a potted plant is under consideration, with the automatic wick waterer means conveniently arranged for discharging water into the bottom of a pot and subject to control by the dampness of the growing medium surrounding the plant root system within the pot. In accordance with this invention, the waterer is a unit which is applicable to installation within a planter pot containing soil or growing medium, or it is applicable as a platform upon which a potted plant is supported. Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide a water supply unit suitable for either inside or outside use, with respect to a planter pot, and a unit which incorporates both the air suction control means and the wick water control means. In practice, the water supply container is a flat closed vessel of round form to be set into or beneath a pot of complementary round form. Being flat, the vessel is shallow so that the head of water pressure is commensurately slight, however, it is existent and subject to delicate control by the aforesaid air suction control means. This slight pressure and delicate control has its advantageous results in the function of the wick water control means, all as hereinafter described, there being a delivery water level movement that raises and lowers the water for immersion or retraction of the lower end of the wick exposed thereto.
The preferred embodiment of this Automatic Wick Waterer For Plants is for use with planter pots to be buried therein or as a support therefor. Accordingly, the water supply vessel is a flat closed and sealed chamber having a filler opening sealed by a removable plug, having an air transfer opening closed by an air transfer tube, and having a water well for water transfer into the wick. The filler opening gives access to replenish the water supply which is sealed when the filler plug is reinserted, and essentially hermetic except for the discrete differential pressure control that supplies the wick water as and when required. The air suction control means is a flexible air suction tube that opens into the top of the water supply vessel to permit recession of the water level therein. A feature of said suction control means is its hydrophilic element exposed to the soil, as a probe, and followed by a hydrophobic element with a liquid entrapment chamber therebetween. Soil or growing medium in a condition other than at field capacity is aerated to some degree and responsive to said suction control means which passes air into the entrapment chamber. It is recognized that some water also passes through the hydrophilic element so as to enter the entrapment chamber, where it is captured by the hydrophobic element through which the air passes. A reverse process can and does occur, wherein the flow is out of the chamber through the hydrophilic element and back into the soil.
The wick well extends through the top of the water supply vessel and to the bottom thereof where it is open to receive the discharge of water into the well, as and when permitted to flow by entry of air into the water supply vessel. A feature is the upward spacing of the terminal bottom end of the wick from the lower open end of the well into the water supply. The spacing is of a discrete determined height, whereby a water level in the well alternately rises to immerse the terminal bottom end of the wick, and recedes so as to withdraw and expose the wick. The wick remains stationary and responds to the changing water level in the chamber 20. Upon immersion into the rising water the wick withdraws water for transfer upwardly into the soil by capillary action, and conversely upon the recession of water in the well, the wick is no longer in contact with water and ceases to transfer water.
Operation of this waterer is initiated by filling the water supply vessel with water and closing the same with the filler plug. The wick is buried in the soil or growing medium at or in the bottom area of the planter pot, and the probe end of the suction control means is buried at a selected distance from the stem of the plant. The water level in the water supply is above the inlet located at the that water is discharged by gravity into the well resulting in a receding water level in and that reduces air pressure in the closed water supply chamber. However, the water supply chamber is in open communication with the air transfer tube to receive displacement air monitored by the probe. The hydrophobic element protects the open connection into the air transfer tube, so that moisture is effectively precluded from entering therein. Consequently, as dampness is increased in the soil or growing medium, water is drawn into the entrapment chamber which commensurately restricts the flow of air into the air transfer tube. And, when the entrapment chamber is filled with water the flow of air is reduced, causing the water level to recede from the bottom terminal end of the wick resulting in water shut-off therethrough.
The foregoing and various other objects and features of this invention will be apparent and fully understood from the following detailed description of the typical preferred forms and applications thereof, throughout which description reference is made to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a sectional elevation view of the Wick Waterer of the present invention, used as a platform to support a planter pot and provide water to the soil held therein.
FIG. 2 is an elevational view similar to FIG. 1, showing use of the Wick Waterer buried within a decorative planter pot.
FIG. 3 is an enlarged detailed sectional view of the moisture responsive probe that characterizes this invention.
FIGS. 4 and 5 are enlarged detailed sectional views of the wick and wick well that also characterizes this invention, FIG. 4 showing the rising water contacting the wick for its immersion, and FIG. 5 showing a receding water level retracting from the wick for its exposure.
And, FIG. 6 is an enlarged detailed lower end view of the well taken as indicated by line 6--6 on FIG. 4.
Referring now to the drawings, this Automatic Wick Waterer For Plants is shown in its preferred form applied to potted plants, and adapted to two modes of application. As shown in FIG. 1 the waterer is a self contained unit presenting a base upon which the planter pot is supported with a wick entering the growing medium through an opening in the bottom of the pot. As shown in FIG. 2 the same waterer unit is buried within the pot (a larger pot) with the same wick entering directly into the growing medium in which the unit is buried. The waterer unit involves, generally, a water supply chamber S, an air suction control means A, and a water control means B, and is characterized by a filler and closure means C, a moisture responsive probe P, and a wick W.
The water supply chamber S is a closed vessel that is air-tight when in use, with the exception of an air transfer tube 15 and the wick well 17 that open therein for control. As shown, the chamber S is a flat round vessel having a top 10 and a bottom 11 joined by a cylindrical upstanding side wall 12. The top 10 can be employed as a platform to support a planter pot (FIG. 1) or the entire waterer unit can be buried in a planter pot (FIG. 2).
The filler and closure means C is preferably a standpipe 13 that projects upwardly from the periphery of the chamber S so as to extend to and/or above the soil or growing medium level (FIG. 2), or to extend to the rim of the planter pot (FIG. 1). In practice the standpipe 13 is closed by a removable plug or stopper 14 after filling the supply chamber S with water thereby hermetically sealing the chamber subject to the aforementioned exceptions for control.
The air suction control means A is shown as a flexible air transfer tube 15 extending from and opening into the top 10 of the water supply chamber S said tube carrying the moisture responsive probe P at its terminal end. A feature of the probe P is its hydrophilic property as a porous element H1 to pass water and air in proportion to their availability in the soil or growing medium. In practice the hydrophilic element is a chemically treated porous plastic rod as manufactured by Porex Technologies in Fairburn, Ga. In accordance with this invention the hydrophilic element H1 is followed by a hydrophobic membrane element H2 to pass air only into the air transfer tube 15. In practice the hydrophobic membrane is a microporous, coated clothlike material as manufactured by W. L. Gore & Associates, Inc. in Elkton, Md. Intermediate the controlling elements H1 and H2 there is a closed entrapment chamber 16 into which the air and water mixture percolates, the fluid volume of air and water being controlled by the hydrophilic element H1, and the liquid volume being precluded by element H2 from entering the air transfer tube 15. As a result, air only is admitted into the air transfer tube 15 for permitting the controlled displacement of water therefrom.
The water control means B is exposed to the discharge of water from the water supply chamber S, as controlled by the means A above described. The means B employs the capillary principal, either directly into the soil or preferably via a wick W. Direct capillary flow of water into the soil (not shown) is by filling the well 17 with soil the same as next described in reference to the wick W. When soil is used as capillary material a filter is placed in the bottom of the wick well to prevent soil particles from clogging the inlet area. Accordingly, the means B exposes capillary material, either soil or a wick, to the rise and fall of water within the well 17. As shown, the wick W is composed of a fibrous capillary material or the like and elongated so as to extend from the lower interior of chamber S to a height above the top 10 and buried in the soil or medium. A feature of means B is the well 17 that opens upwardly at the top 10 to receive the soil or preferably the wick W, and extends downwardly to open into the chamber S immediately above the bottom 11.
In accordance with this invention, water enters the well 17 as and when it is discharged from the chamber S as a result of air displacement permitted by the air suction control means A hereinabove described.
Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5 of the drawings, it will be observed that the terminal bottom end 18 of wick W is spaced substantially above the open bottom end 19 of well 17, there being a wick immersion chamber 20 therebetween. It is this chamber 20 that controls the extent to which wick W, is immersed when the water discharge raises the water level in said chamber 20, and alternately recedes from the wick 20 so that it becomes inactive. Accordingly, the capillary wicking function starts and stops in response to the water discharge controlled by the moisture responsive probe P. In practice, there is a stop 21 that determines the height of the wick end 18 above the open lower end 19 of the wick well 17. The height of chamber 20 as shown in the drawings and will vary depending upon watering requirements. Use of the wick W facilitates preparation and affords greater and predictable control.
A feature of this invention and the well 17 with its wick W in the immersion chamber 20, is a means to accommodate tilting of the planter pot and/or of the entire apparatus or planting. In carrying out this invention, the wick stop 21 is in the form of a plurality of internal ribs within the tubular well 17, leaving the center area of the well open and clear. The primary function of the rib-like stops 21 is to support and restrictively locate the terminal bottom end 18 of the wick, and a secondary function thereof is to support and restrictively locate the lower open end 19 of the well space slightly above the supporting bottom 11 of the supply chamber S. The means to accommodate tilting is in the top end formation of the rib-like stops 21 which are downwardly and inwardly declined so as to form the terminal bottom end configuration of the wick W into a cone shape, as shown. Said cone shape has a theoretical apex centered at a. The cone angle is shown as x, which indicates the angular level to which the well and the entire unit can be tilted about the apex a without immersion of the wick when the water level in chamber 20 is below the apex a.
Having described only the typical preferred forms and applications of my invention, I do not wish to be limited or restricted to the specific details herein set forth, but wish to reserve to myself any modifications or variations that may appear to those skilled in the art as set forth within the limits of the following claims.

Had A pdoc appt this morning, and about lost it in her office. I realized I've been hypo manic a lot lately, so I started to talk about it to her, and lost my ever loving mind I'm panic about not being able to handle it. So I guess I'm going to try risperal (sp?) Any one been on it? I'm panicked inside about doing Zoloft too. I'm so over all of this..........
pretty much lost my mind this morning

Oh no I'm sorry you had such a bad appointment! But maybe the meds will help. I have a friend who takes Risperdal and it seems to help. Why are you nervous about Zoloft? It's supposed to be well tolerated, in most people. Good luck!

Sorry, that was spelling, I meant going off Zoloft, not doing Zoloft...that's why I was worried. The riperdal seems to be working wonders, but I had a horrible withdrawal from the Zoloft and am back on half the dose, which helped me feel better physically and gave me piece of mind, as I haven't been without an antidepressant since I was 12, so 17 years. I am still ttc so I worry about adding more meds, but I know that I have to take care of me. Hope everyone is doing well.
Posted 07/15/2014
You might be surprised. I have been on and off antidepressants for the better part of 10 years. But they're really not the best for bipolar and many people are more stable off them. I went off my effexor and it sucked for a few weeks but now I'm actually doing really well. You might need to wean slower but you might be able to get off it and actually do better. I will hope that is the case for you.
Hang in there though this time. I'm here if you need to talk.

Online Retailers Triggers Technical Research As Momentum Builds For 2013
LONDON, January 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- StockCall research team has posted free technical analyses on companies mentioned in this release. These can be accessed athttp://www.stockcall.com/register The Catalog and Mail Order house industry, which features the world's top online retailers, has started the New Year off with a bang, as strong holiday sales figures in the U.S. and abroad have begun to be reported. eBay Inc. (1) (NASDAQ:EBAY) is scheduled at release its earnings today after the market closes. eBay has been a strong performer in the last 12 months backed by growing interest for online buying, especially as its mobile app continues to be popular reaching the 100 th million download in September 2012. But what has also changed is consumers' faith in internet security as they start to use online payment methods which bode well for eBay on two fronts. Firstly, its PayPal service garnered a household status and eBay being an online retailer sees its primary business gaining success as a reason of PayPal's popularity. The proliferation of smartphones and tablets, also bodes well for the industry, and with more people feeling secure about shopping online, companies could see record sales figures in 2013. According to the National Retail Federation, total holiday spending jumped by 3% in 2012, and non-store holiday sales increased by an impressive 11.1%. In an attempt to reach a greater number of potential customers, several companies, such as Amazon.com Inc. (2) (NASDAQ: AMZN), have come out with new apps for gaming consoles as well as smartphones and tablets. Amazon's Instant Video app which is available for Wii console owners provides the options to buy, rent and stream a large pool of movies and TV series from Amazon's Instant Vide Store. A growing number of internet users in China augur well for companies with operations in the area, though competition there remains intense. It is easy to understand why, as last year alone the number of internet users in China increased by some 51 million to around 564 million users. Footer:

Adirondacks in the distance.
Beautiful landscape.
Glad you like it Sonjamar - it is mostly scenic farmland between the Adirondack Mountains of NY and Green Mountains of Vermont.
It's a wonderful landscape, is it called cheese country because of the diary farms?
A variety of small family owned farms that sell locally Annelies. Mostly dairy but also orchards, vegetables, meat, maple syrup, honey. I gave it the label because of the concentration of cheese makers. Some areas along the Battenkill River were severely flooded recently when hurricane Irene came through.

Tip of the Day
Quickly adding photos while composing an e-mail
iOS device users have been able to share photos and videos from the Camera Roll since the very first iPhone was released in 2007, however this feature has traditionally required the user to start in the Photos app to select the items they want to share and then create an entirely new e-mail message from there with the photos attached. Unfortunately, this method doesn't work particularly well if you've already started writing an e-mail message and then later decide that you want to add one or more photos to it. While the iOS clipboard would allow you to copy and paste photos, switching back and forth between the Photos and Mail apps can still be a bit cumbersome.
Fortunately, iOS 6 adds the ability to attach photos and videos directly into an e-mail without having to actually leave the Mail app at all. Simply tap and hold on an empty spot in the message to bring up the context menu and then tap on the right arrow to reveal an "Insert Photo or Video" option. This will bring up the in-app photo browser from which you can choose a photo to insert directly into your e-mail right at the current cursor position. Not only does this save you a trip over to the Photos app, but you can also attach as many images as you like and place them wherever you want in your message simply by repeating the process to add more images.

Room was clean and comfortable
breakfast was poor...nothing without sugar. Didn't even have any boiled eggs. Forced to eat Raisin Bran which has loads of sugar.
Friendly staff. Felt clean.
Had to air out the room at least twice per day because of the musty smell.
Not much to choose from in Urbana-Champaign, but this is probably one of the better places to stay at in the area.
The price was good.
The walls are paper thin so you hear everything in the entire place. Everything in the room is low quality. The staff was nice & friendly, but the place was not great, but then again you get what you pay for, and this place was not expensive at all.
Everything - room was fine, staff was helpful and nice. Easy check-in.
I would have liked a hair dryer in room.
Seemed to be newly remodeled. Nice pillows and linens. But skimpy on towels & wash cloths.
Check in clerk was curt, she, never looked me in the eye. No coffee maker so went down to lobby Sat. & Sun mornings. The Decaf coffee pot was empty. I asked the clerk when he would make some decaf, his reply was ':I don't know'. 1/2 hr later, no decaf.
The price and it was the only place available on homecoming weekend.
Hotel was what you expected for the price. The owner needs to not barge into the rooms without knocking or introducing himself.
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.

Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

A sweet little Polish import called Divinity II: Ego Draconis combines a story-rich adventure game with a unique feature-rich single player RPG, so long as you play it on a PC because I hear the console ports really suck. It's well-polished in its current updated version; glitch free and buttery smooth on the highest settings. Graphics are great, the music is so good I've never turned it off during play which is as much as I can ask for out of a game. I got the download version on Amazon for $5.99 and my g/f and I are actually playing it together on weekends sharing our character. There's a big variety of graphical beauty, light puzzle solving, exploring, questing and endless character customization. Eventually in the game you get your own place complete with a multiroom solar apartment at the top of your tower, multiple floors, an elevator, a garden of alchemy, a workshop where you can enchant weapons, armor and jewelry, a personal trainer, a throne room with musician and personal dancer, runners who you can send off to get that missing ingredient so you don't have to bore yourself, necromancers who create "creatures" who work like your guard dog, and big kicker: the ability to turn into a dragon. It's a game that doesn't try too hard to be too realistic. It's a light hearted game with a light plot, but at least it makes a serious attempt at keeping up appearances of a story. It doesn't hide the fact that it is only a game and I really like that aspect. It tries to be a fun game and it succeeds. I have to play as a girl but I'm getting in touch with my feminine side.
8/10 overall; 10/10 Bang for the buck.
We might try a more serious RPG like Dragon Age after we finish this one. I'd say we're about halfway through the game and have put in over 50 hours so far.

in response to StalkerI don't know why its doing that either.
Some of my friends in Verizon and Sprint saying they have text me, but
I sure didn't get any from them.
Hope its fixable.
Tamara Jul 18, 2008 12:54 PM
in response to StalkerWith Verizon, it can be caused by people using out of date PRCs on their phone.
Stalker Jul 18, 2008 12:56 PM
in response to PhantomXI spent an hour texting my wife's phone (Verizon), back and forth and only had 45% success rate with receiving her messages. Yet, she gets all of my texts. Crazy.......
Stalker Jul 18, 2008 12:57 PM
in response to TamaraWhat is a PRC? How do I fix my wife's phone? Thanks!
Tamara Jul 18, 2008 1:50 PM
in response to Stalker Helpful*228 will update her phone. If this doesn't help, you'll need to get ATT to reset your text messaging.
Stalker Jul 18, 2008 1:54 PM
in response to TamaraI had AT&T reset my messaging last night, three times! I did the *228 thing and that helped for a bit, just now. However, of the 25 test texts we just did, I didn't get one....I guess that is pretty good odds but I never had these problems with Verizon. So, is it a Verizon issue or an AT&T issue? Thanks!
Tamara Jul 18, 2008 2:35 PM
in response to StalkerIf your number is newly ported over, Verizon may not have completely released your number. I would definitely call ATT tech support or visit an ATT store and have them troubleshoot your account.
Stalker Jul 18, 2008 2:45 PM
in response to TamaraThanks! Yup, last night was spent at the AT&T Store dealing with a great rep and Tech Support. Both had no clue why this was happening and could not explain. Here is the list of things that have been attempted:
Removed Data Plan and put Data Plan back on account 3 times.
Checked account online with AT&T (both store rep and Tech Support).
Changed SIM Cards with another iphone.
*228 on Verizon phone (both options 1 and 2).
Trouble Ticket started with AT&T Tech Support.
All the above have had negative results. I guess I will see what the Trouble Ticket produces.
Tamara Jul 18, 2008 3:55 PM
in response to StalkerThe data plan would have nothing to do with receiving or sending text messages. I'm surprised that they didn't disable and reenable texting.
vinshipe Jul 25, 2008 2:11 PM
in response to StalkerThe problem may in fact be on the Verizon side. Several users who have contacted customer support at ATT have reported the messages are not even hitting the 'intercarrier network.' See this link for more information.

Attorney: Suit against Leithead Todd should be dropped
By ERIN MILLER
Stephens Media Hawaii
A suit against the county's Environmental Management director should be dismissed because the type of action filed is not proper, a West Hawaii attorney says.
Environmental Management Director Bobby Jean Leithead Todd hired attorney Robert Kim to represent her in a legal action brought by South Kona/Ka'u Councilwoman Brenda Ford. Ford is challenging Leithead Todd's appointment to the top environmental management job, on the grounds that the county's charter requires the director to hold an engineering or equivalent degree and Leithead Todd does not.
Kim's motion to dismiss, filed Friday afternoon, outlines several arguments asking 3rd Circuit Court Judge Ronald Ibarra to dismiss Ford's complaint.
Ford's petition, "in the nature of quo warranto," asks the court to compel Leithead Todd to come forward and justify her qualifications for her position. Quo warranto is most commonly used in Hawaii to challenge elected officials' qualifications for office, if for example, they don't live in their district. It also was tried unsuccessfully by the so-called "Birther" movement in challenging President Barack Obama's birth certificate and citizenship and thus his qualification to be president.
"I don't believe quo warranto is proper," Kim said.
The councilwoman also didn't file a motion that included any request for relief, Kim said.
"What she's asking for the court to do is make Bobby Jean show the legal authority on which she holds this office," Kim said.
Ford's attorney, Michael Matsukawa, should not have notarized Ford's exhibits and other documents, on which Ibarra relied when issuing an order allowing the lawsuit to proceed, Kim said.
"A notary is supposed to be an independent witness," he added.
His motion noted that Matsukawa is seeking legal fees to be paid if Ford's motion prevails. That would create an ethical conflict for a notary, Kim said.
Kim also objected to the documents on which Ibarra relied in granting an order allowing Ford's suit to proceed. Kim said that in a quo warranto suit, the respondent — Leithead Todd in this case — is not allowed to submit any documents following the initial filing. The judge, Kim said, relies on the evidence and documents the movant — Ford — files. Ford submitted a number of documents that were not addressed to her, but were other government records she cannot authenticate, Kim claimed.
Ford also failed to follow Ibarra's order to serve Leithead Todd with the order Ibarra granted within 15 days, Kim said.
Kim noted Hawaii County officials, in filing a petition to intervene this week, are not doing so to defend Leithead Todd.
"The county has to defend its own procedures," Kim said.
Matsukawa did not respond to a phone message seeking comment Friday afternoon.

I'm trying to generate an Apple Push Notification service SSL Certificate - here's a screen-grab:

but after hanging at that screen for 2 minutes, I then keep getting this error:
I'm doing everything right, I checked and re-did all my steps, several times, verified it all using multiple sources (like http://mobiforge.com/developing/story/programming-apple-push-notification-services) - but this error keeps popping up.
Anyone have any idea what's going on or how to solve it? And in the error, where it says "or try using the Provisioning Portal" - anyone know what specifically they're talking about? I mean I know where the provisioning profile is, I poked around in there - but what specifically am I supposed to click or do there?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm sorry for my last thread, why I hate rhydon. it was in the right forum but I thought it was in the wrong forum so I cut n pasted it to the wrong forum and then it was moved to the right forum and then there was 2 titles.
But anyway Ruby was my first game, sometimes I look back on so many memories I had on that game. My overleveled Blaziken that could sweep any NPC in 1 hit and my severly underleveled rest of my team. Me not being able to defeat the elite 4 because of PP (It was actully to do with having only 2 Pokemon a Blaziken and a Groudon) Yeah I was so noobish I could even defeat the elite 4 with Groundon
Anyway when I'm scrolling through my memories one particular event comes to mind, the shiny Chinchou. Well I was doing the Deep Sea Tooth, Deep Sea Scale sidequest and thought I would try and catch some Pokemon on the way. I caught a Clamperl and 1 standard Chinchou and then....
I found a shiny Chinchou I was over the moon, I weakend it and went to my Pokeballs pocket and Id run out of Pokeballs

I stumbled around for a while and then I noticed that in the Add Version page for your new binary, there is a list of the In App Purchases you can submit for review along with the binary. Checking those In App Purchases and submitting the binary has moved the In App Purchases to the Waiting for Review state. It is confusing that the In App Purchase page has a grayed out Submit For Review button when I never had to click it.
check-out http://www.macstories.net/news/apple-temporarily-freezing-in-app-purchase-approvals/ . It has some indications and links to further info.

in response to counselor05Here's the deal: most carriers require that iPhones using their network have an associated data plan. So, check with your carrier to see if they will permit an iPhone on their network without a data plan. If your carrier says yes, you can swap the sim in the phone no problem. Carriers can tell exactly what type of phone/equipment is using their network by the device's IMEI number.
