text: Erbaluce of my Adoration. Joanie Karapetian December 18, 2012 4 Comments I found this bottle on Cotogna's wine list, in San Francisco. Bravo! There are wines that we defines, and wines that define us. For me the Erbaluce from the Favaro winery in Caluso is the latter. I met Camillo Favaro in 2006 when I was just beginning to find my way through the fascinating world of Italian wine. Erbaluce ("air-bah-loo-chay"), sounds so poetic, so foriegn and exotic. A white wine from Piemonte, land of the Big Reds. Camillo Favaro has a booming voice with a lyrical accent strictly from northern Piemonte. Bright, sprightly eyes that dance when he talks about Erbaluce, or about his vineyards. I remember shaking his hand and noticing how strong and capable they were. This is a winemaker, and this is a farmer who makes wine. I remember his big, open smile- the expression of a man who has discovered the universe has given him every opportunity to do what he loves. David Scott and Camillo Favaro, deep in conversation at Vinitaly 2007. Camillo Favaro's Erbaluce was a lightening bolt- I tasted it at a point in my life when I don't believe I had tasted many white wines that had left such an impression on me. Favaro crafts a truly superior version of Erbaluce; full-bodied and still electric with acidity. Weighty in the glass- oily even, but fresh and alive on the palate. This wine has that waxy, lemon-oil and petroleum characteristic you find in the great Rieslings of the world. It is also singularly itself- an ancient, traditional grape from an amazing place at in the foothills of the Piemontese mountains. I was star-struck by this wine, won over by its minerality and unsuspecting charm. I truly believe it was one of the wines that shaped my palate the most in those formative years. I still drink it today, as often as I can find it. More than that, I think this wine taught me to connect the great wines in my life with the people who make them. There is happily, and unavoidably, a connection. Grazie, Camillo.

Vibrant, fresh, sapid and crisp acidity make this wine a perfect paring with fatty fried fish such as trout….Trout fritters with basil aïoli….Yumm!!! Reply Joanie Karapetian, Italian Wine Geek February 22, 2013 I think we need a recipe for trout fritters… Reply Michele March 1, 2013 Roast a whole trout all the way trough, let it cool. Take the meat off (you can use the bones and head for fish stock for the eventual next seafood risotto course) and put it in a bowl with a small bunch of chopped chives, 1 small chopped shallots, sliced basil and Italian parley, some mayo to combine, salt and Tabasco and lemon juice or Dijon mustard to taste (a great addition wold also be chopped black olives or capers.) Add a little breadcrumb (not the ones from the blu tube please!) and leave covered in the fridge for at least one hour. Form them in to crab cake shapes, add breadcrumb on both sides and pan-fry them till golden. Serve with if any kind of sauce: garlic aïoli, roasted bell peppers blended with salt and vinegar, blended basil-parsley-anchovy and vinegar, blended whole lemon slices with basil sugar and salt ecc…ecc…. ENJOY! Reply Joanie Karapetian, Italian Wine Geek March 1, 2013 AMAZING. Now we just need to taste-test… Reply Leave a Reply Cancel reply

The number Florida women who are choosing to obtain a conceal-carry gun permit continues to grow.
Jays Gun Range is one of the many places that have women come in to register to obtain a gun.
Women mostly get permits for the purpose of self-defense and to protect their families.
State statistics show that 1.2 million people are permitted to carry a concealed weapon with one fourth of those people being women.
For any women who still want to get a permit, be sure to swing by your nearest gun range to begin the process.

Thanks a lot!
That's (unfortunately) what I expected.
AllAboutHomeElectronics Oct 21, 2012 8:01 AM
in response to geohei
Rather than attempting to do that within the device, in this case your son's device.....why don't you use the controls that are built into virtually every router to control this ?
This video link below won't show you how to do it specifically but, if you don't already know how, it will talk you through logging into a router. But a word of caution, if you dont really know anything about router settings proceed with care & caution because modifying a wrong setting risks shutting your Internet service access down and "could" also cause you to have to reset (potentially). Both can be frustrating / time consuming things to attempt.
One sugesstion is to log in and famaliarize yourself with settings & features. If you want more help post again. We can do facetime to to assist you in a walk through.

Thanks, but I use a FRITZ!Box 7390.
If I didn't miss anything, there's only one "countermeasure" inside this router. It's to forbit new Wi-Fi devices to connect. However this feature I need to keep enabled. since there are too many new devices which need access on daily basis.
Disabling DHCP is not an option since one could try out IP addresses until one working is found, and on top of this by doing so, generate a great amount of IP conflicts inside the LAN.
Any other other ideas?
AllAboutHomeElectronics Oct 22, 2012 5:47 AM
in response to geohei
Pulled up the owner's manual for the Fritz!Box 7390 purely to get famaliar with it's respective settings, capabilities etc.
The headline to your original post is, "Block WiFi settings" however its a little unclear what problem you are trying to solve by doing that on your Apple device or which Apple product (?)
All devices having some Internet or Home Computer Network connectability, be they from APPLE or some other manufacturer, come from the factory with a unque MAC address that most often can not be changed. There are way(s) to block MAC addresses from a network / Internet
We posted an image here at this website page link to How to Setup Wifi. The image as at the very bottom of the page.
geohei Nov 12, 2012 3:41 PM
in response to AllAboutHomeElectronics
With "Block WiFi settings" I meant to block the possibility to change the IP address after a WiFi connection was configured (either by DHCP or fix IP). I just want the device (it's an iPod touch) to keep the IP I configured, and at which the FB7390 manges the parent restriction.
AllAboutHomeElectronics Nov 12, 2012 4:19 PM
in response to geohei
Your son is changing the IP address settings in his iPod (as you sugessted in the original post)
His iPod has a distinct MAC address that no other device in the world has (at least in theory)
I would log into the setup of your Router and assign a fixed IP address to that MAC address.
This way when he changes his IP address (or attempts to) the Router should detect the duplicate MAC address and disallow his change. Its a conflict that the router can't process.
The way he gets around that is to default the router to factory settings (easier if you have cable Internet as opposed to DSL - PPOe Internet.
Outside of these tips....not sure what else to recommend.
AllAboutHomeElectronics Nov 12, 2012 4:22 PM
in response to AllAboutHomeElectronics
For clarification purposes...MAC address...in the context of the post above has no relationship to Apple MAC. The abreviation is just a simple coincidence.
geohei Nov 12, 2012 10:48 PM
in response to AllAboutHomeElectronics
Thanks a lot.
Yes, network stuff is familiar to me (MAC address).
However the used router (FB7390) has no feature to nail an IP to a specific MAC address. Therefore your suggestion doesn't work.
I believe I can't succeed due to lack of features on both sides (router an iPod touch).
geohei Nov 14, 2012 11:08 PM
in response to AllAboutHomeElectronics
This is highly hardware (router) dependant.
My router (FRITZ!Box 7390) doesn't provide this feature.

Hi Everyone! I am new to biking and someone has been kind enough to pass down an older (or so I think) Trek 720 Multitrack. It is in need of few repairs (the chain is broken) but I would also like to spruce it up a little since it is worn. It could use some new tires for starters.
1. Where can I find information on bicycle mechanics?
2. Should I just take it to a repair shop since I don't know what I am doing?

Burmese Briefing
The president doesn't know what he's getting into.
It has been well publicized that President Barack Obama often does not attend the regular White House morning intelligence briefings. Instead, we're told, he prefers to read written summaries, presumably later in the day or while dashing off somewhere on Air Force One. Whatever the president's actual study and briefing schedule, it is apparent that he is not an avid student of foreign political/economic affairs.
The explanation has been given that Mr. Obama is a "people person" who prefers to have his impressions created by direct contact rather than detailed analysis prepared by faceless intelligence analysts. With the foregoing in mind, one wonders exactly what Barack Obama knew about Burma before he arrived there to lecture his hosts on what their country needs to do in order to make a success of their struggle for democracy.
Reference to the ethnic diversity of Burma was included in President Obama's speech to his favorite audience -- students. But did he really understand the complications of a nation in which more than 60% of the citizens are of one ethnicity (Burman) and the rest made up of 135 distinct ethnic groups (many living on a subsistence level) divided for governmental classification into 8 major ethnic races? One of the major ambitions for most all these groups is a desire for ethnic autonomy. To emphasize and protect their individual objectives, many of these groupings have their own militias. Knowledge of this background is essential to begin to comprehend the complexity of the region's politics.
To begin with, one would hope that President Obama had been briefed on the relationship that the United States military and intelligence service had with the Kachin tribal fighters going back to their work with the American OSS Detachment 101 during World War II. It may seem ancient history to some, but to the Kachin these lessons of the past are still important. The Americans of the OSS employed their Kachin comrades in gathering intelligence and harassing the occupying Japanese forces. In fact, it was these and other ethnic minorities that provided the core of the anti-Japanese resistance in Burma.
Part of this same historical reality is that the majority Burman population actually cooperated with the invading Japanese. These things are not forgotten by the minorities. In fact, Aung San Suu Kyi's late father, the famous General Aung Sang, rallied his Burmese troops to assist the Japanese invasion. It wasn't until later in the war when the tide was turning that an indigenous OSS intelligence agent guided General Aung Sang and his troops to shift his allegiance back to Britain's General Bill Slim in India. It's a tale that President Obama most certainly would have heard about had he any contact with Kachin leaders several weeks ago -- which in fact he did not have.
General Aung San would once again shift his allegiance when he led the battle after the war's end to remove British colonial rule. There is no doubt that his now equally famous daughter Aung San Suu Kyi's political and physical life was saved by the memory of the General's own earlier opportunistic exploits. Her perception as a "princess" has been created by history as much as the adoration of her political followers. Her popular appellation, "The Lady," derives from this. The Burmese have a princess because they created one. The shifting scene of Burmese political life today values such continuity as much as it fears it, and she is careful not to overreach.
Then there is the suspended hydroelectric power project in the state of Kachin known as the Myitsone dam. This multi-billion dollar Chinese construction project was aimed at providing an economical power source to China through the damming of the Irawaddy River. The lack of substantive benefit to the resident Kachin people made it a less than attractive development to them and everything had to be halted part of the way through. Of course there is also that old animosity toward the central Burmese government that goes back to WWII. The several thousand-man Kachin Independent Army is still the strongest of the ethnic militaries always ready to take the field against the much larger Burmese Armed Forces -- and as recently as last year has done so.
The truth is that the Chinese have been able to take advantage of lower paid displaced ethnic minority Burmese labor. The question arises as to whether Obama realizes he is placing the United States in a position of interference in an area that long has been, if not a sphere of Chinese influence, certainly a convenient resource-rich neighbor easily exploitable through its long border area with China. Encouraged by Hillary Clinton's personal friendship with Aung San Suu Kyi and George Soros' longtime interest in gaining a foothold in the mineral rich potential of Burma, President Obama has taken the first steps to exerting American influence in both the political and economic life of this complicated Asian country.
Is this what the American president meant last fall when he announced his intention to "pivot" U.S. interests to the Far East and away from Middle Eastern conflicts? Certainly Beijing does not look kindly on Washington involvement in an area China has long cultivated. The chances are that the Obama Administration, enamored of the heroic story of The Lady's struggle for democracy in Burma, has leaped rather naively into a portion of Asia as complicated and danger-filled as any in the region.
Barack Obama is attempting to make his mark in a part of the world he sees as less of a problem than that with which he has been struggling in the Middle East. He has been encouraged to see the future democratization of Burma as a potential major policy accomplishment. His aim to be acclaimed as a great peacemaker internationally fits this targeting perfectly. The problem is that Burma is just not the safe and innocent object that he views it as being.
Whether because of (1) the Chinese perception that the U.S. is involving itself where it has no rightful place, or (2) the ongoing conflicts of the mountainous northern states with the Burman majority's government instruments, or (3) the pivotal role of the country's military structure and its authoritarian social class, Burma is hardly a trouble-free part of the world. Washington should involve itself only in a peripheral manner unless it truly wishes to pivot to challenge Beijing's broader ambitions.

Mai is back because she's now The Undead.It seems unlikely (within the previous fic) that Katara would let her live even by a hair. So, Sho took his sister's body and either made her a vampire (the photobucket account DOES have a picture of some characters as vampires), a zombie, or a lich.
Mai is back, but as herself from the original show.Death restores her to her normal self, and, having her memories of the first HIBY, she proceeded to save Zuko from whatever is controlling the entire cast. They're in the Spirit World now, as Diaz hasn't updated since November of 2010
Lilith will bring her parents back from the spirit world.So far, Lilith has been set up as our likely protagonist. There may be a point where she will learn about how Azula was brought back from the spirit world, and so Lilith will somehow go to the spirit world herself to bring her parents back for the final battle.
Kuzon ends up married to Ling.Because the only other main character girls are his sister and his cousin. This would continue a Double Inlaw Marriage pattern from the first HIBY, if Lilith marries Poe (as conjectured below). Then, in the third installment, Diaz can mix it up a little bit more by having the spawn of both unions marry each other. Kissing Cousins would not even begin to describe it...it would be beautiful.
Lilith will end up married to Poe.Because there's no other boy besides her brother to hop into bed with. Not that that has really stopped her before...but still, it would put off even some of Diaz's fans if that happened. The funny thing is that, given that Lily and Poe are the two kids who look most like Katara and Aang, and since their union probably means that Katara and Aang will now share grandchildren, HIBY effectively becomes a Kataang fic in disguise like "The Avatar and the Firelord" was a Rozin story in disguise. Then again, it also makes HIBY a Zukaang fic in disguise...and Katoph...and Tuko...okay, I'm just gonna quit while I'm ahead...
Miracle dies.It's a prerequisite for being a
At least one of the children will die in a Heroic Sacrifice.Whether they will be Killed Off for Real or brought back from the spirit world like Azula in the original depends on whether Diaz will want to make the ending bittersweet just for the sake of being bittersweet, or happy just for the sake of being sugary.
The possible outcomes of Lilith against the bullies...
- She comes to her senses just in time and spares them.
- Miracle and/or Kuzon stop her with counter-bending, and possibly a Cooldown Hug.
- She kills them and either repents for it, or is told she did the right thing and becomes a Designated Hero like her mother.
A Legend Of Korra character will appearHopefully Amon so he can curbstomp everyone.
- Or Korra, since Aang's dying. So she can curbstomp everyone too.
- Or they both show up. Then they curbstomp everyone together. Then they both agree not to talk about it when they get back.

Barry Switzer & Pat Jones back for Coaches Cabana
Barry Switzer and Pat Jones are back for their Coaches Cabana shows this college football season, and Switzer always is fired up about it.
Switzer watches the OU game each week from his cabana behind his house and interacts with fans who also are watching. Jones watches the OSU game and five other schools have similar shows with former coaches or players.
"I love doing it," Switzer said. "Cox (cable) wants to do 25 schools next year, if we do the numbers they think we can do."
Also doing coaches cabana shows are Arkansas, Texas A&M, Texas, LSU and Nebraska.
This year, Switzer said Cox is giving the shows a mosaic channel so that four telecasts appear on the screen. The cabana show is one, with other games alongside.
For instance, on Switzer's show, the OU game will appear on 2/3 of the screen, with three telecasts next to it, one of which will be Switzer, along with co-host Mark Rodgers, former OU quarterback Thomas Lott and other assorted guests.
"Hopefully we'll go to Time Warner and Comcast, take it to them," Switzer said. "The top 25 or 30 schools. It's becoming bigger and bigger."
Switzer's show will appear on Cox channel 1330. Jones' show will appear on Cox channel 1329.
Switzer describes coaches cabana as "kind of a reality show."
Other hosts are former quarterback Clint Stoerner at Arkansas, former assistant coach Milt Tenopir at Nebraska, former coach Jackie Sherrill at Texas A&M, former quarterback John Fourcade at LSU and former quarterback/safety Bill Bradley at Texas.

The LifeSize system cost about $30,000, which was $10,000 less than other solutions, LifeSize claims. Savings in reduced travel costs for 150 staff paid for the system within a year.
Claringbold says videoconferencing units that are marooned in dedicated rooms are often ignored as people would rather use their phones.
One option is to use portable units that can be moved to where they are needed. "Resellers are attracted to our solution because of the easy deployment. And most importantly, it does not use a lot of bandwidth."
Travel fades as chief driver
Stories of saving money by reducing travel are common justifications for videoconferencing. Cisco TelePresence was used for global architectural and design firm Woods Bagot to collaborate on projects based on expertise, not location. All its clients needed
is a video camera. In one year it saved $440,000 in travel costs alone, and now considers itself to be a more environmentally sustainable company.
However, an important part of the technology's growth is that business usage cases of video conferencing are diversifying beyond travel.
Education is big, says Cisco's Hughes. "Education uses videoconferencing for access to expertise around the world, where students can get the face to face (experience) without travelling.
"It's used in corporate communications. A CEO can use a videoconferencing system and record a two- minute corporate speech that can be streamed out live on the internet or archived. Corporate events use it for experts live on stage for a two-way conversation with conference audience. The health industry has access to a remote doctor over the video," Hughes says.
It's important that a videoconferencing system is easy to use. "The recent drama and tragedy in New Zealand showed how easy it is to use our system. Emergency groups used a camera in their PC to quickly establish videoconferencing," Hughes says.
Content is king for small to medium organisations, says Tom Morgan, chief executive officer of unified communications reseller eVideo Communications.
For example: "Fitness First personal trainers use video to make a personalised one-hour video. I could be overseas and could dial in – put in my pin number in and view a video made just for me."

Badgers hire former Georgia tailback to coach running backs
Madison – Wisconsin coach Gary Andersen has found a running backs coach to replace Thomas Hammock.
Footballscoop.com reported early Friday UW has hired former Georgia tailback Thomas Brown, who coached running backs at Marshall last season.
Brown, 27, coached running backs at Chattanooga in 2012 before being hired at Marshall.
UW officials could not be reached Friday morning but a source with knowledge of the hiring process confirmed Brown was Andersen's choice. Also, Brown changed the background on his Twitter account @iamthomasbrown to inform his followers about the move.
Brown played at Tucker High School, a few miles northeast of Atlanta, and UW's staff is trying to expand its recruiting territory into Southeastern Conference territory.
The Badgers' 2014 freshman class features two players from Georgia and one from South Carolina.
Brown lettered all four seasons at Georgia (2004-'07). As a freshman, Brown rushed 16 times for 111 yards and a touchdown in Georgia's 24-21 victory over UW in the 2005 Outback Bowl
He was drafted in 2008 by the Atlanta Falcons but suffered a season-ending injury during a preseason game his rookie year and was released in 2009.
He was added to the Cleveland Browns' practice squad on Nov. 10, 2009. He was promoted to the active roster on Jan. 2, 2010 but was released in June.
Brown then returned to Georgia as an assistant strength and conditioning coach in 2011. He spent one season at Georgia before taking the job as running backs coach at Chattanooga.
Marshall won the Conference USA East Division title with a 7-1 mark last season. The Thundering Herd lost to Rice, 41-24, in the league title game but closed the season with a 31-20 victory over Maryland in the Military Bowl.
Marshall finished second in Conference USA in rushing at 205.9 yards per game.
Three Marshall backs rushed for at least 503 yards last season.
Essray Taliaferro led the team in rushing with 1,140 yards and 10 touchdowns. He averaged 5.2 yards per carry.
Steward Butler was second with 765 yards and eight touchdowns. He led the team in yards per carry at 8.8.
Kevin Grooms was third with 503 yards and six touchdowns. He averaged 5.5 yards per carry.

This clip comes from a late 1980s TV how called Sunday Night (AKA Night Music) hosted by American saxophonist David Sanborn and English pianist/singer/composer Jools Holland. The latter is joined by Dr. John for some "four-hands" boogie woogie piano.
According to Sanborn** the "precise fingering and split second timing" required by such a duet make it "one of the most demanding and dangerous pieces of music to perform".
**So says Sanborn in his introduction to this performance, which you can see here, but in version of the clip with inferior audio and video.

I gave a tiny gasp of disbelief before taking her left foot in my hands, kissing gently at the leather, running my bottom lip down and then up the heel moving up towards her ankle, around the seem and then pausing briefly before gently brushing her ankle with my lips. She moaned her appreciation, so I began slowly to let my kisses run higher towards her calf. I looked up and she was smiling through closed eyes as I reached the inside her knee. I continued with verve, pushing her skirt up and reaching the lace top of the stocking, I lingered there a while kissing and licking gently at her before stopping all together. I breathed gently on her naked thigh, she let out a barely audible gasp. I brushed her flesh ever so gently with my bottom lip and she gasped again, a little louder this time. I ran the tip of my tongue gently along an inch of her thigh and she groaned, placing a hand on my head.
I pushed on, kissing and licking up and up towards her. I could smell her pussy now, so fragrant. My cheek was almost touching her black lace thong, her hand trying to push me closer but I pulled away and turned to the other leg. Starting this time just at the top of her stocking I quickly made my way up, her skirt now pulled right up around her hips. Nearing her panties again, I once more pulled away as she gasped in frustration, urging me upwards. But I resisted her and turned back to the left leg, this time starting half way up her thigh. I pushed in closer than before but avoiding touching her through the thong.
I gripped her knees and pulled her thighs apart, giving long broad strokes with my tongue at the flesh either side of her undergarment. I flicked my tongue quickly up the centre of her thong, feeling the warmth and the moisture seeping from underneath. She moaned again and placed her other hand on the back of my head as she leaned back laying herself flat on her desk. With my index finger I gently levered the thong to one side, her pussy was glistening with her erotic wetness. I paused again, smiling at the anticipation. More gently than the touch of a feather I licked some of the juice from her lips, pulling away before I touched her clit. She gasped, and I smiled again before breathing gently over her pussy. She gasped loudly this time and her buttocks clenched up for a second then relaxed. She was breathing heavily in anticipation, she'd waited long enough.
I covered her with my mouth, gently circling her clit my tongue.
"Oh God!" She gasped aloud as her nails dug into my scalp. She tasted wonderful and there was no shortage of liquid coming from her. Her arse and hips kept spasming as her thighs clamped hold of my head. I pressed my tongue harder against her and began lapping faster, her hips and thighs manoeuvring my head round in circles. The juice was almost pouring from her now and I was sure she would come when she tore my head away from her by my hair.
She grabbed a fist full of tie and shirt and roared: "Fuck me!" I didn't need to be told twice! My trousers and boxers were round my knees in a trice, my stiff cock leaking pre - come and she hauled me bodily into her with her ankles on my arse. Her slick and hot pussy absorbed my dick without resistance. My hands were on the desk on either side of her shoulders as I thundered in and out of her. Her hands were up beneath my shirt on my naked back, her nails clawing at me as she stared up at me with a look of fury on her face, her glasses now lost.
"Fuck me harder, and don't you dare come until after I do!" I increased the tempo, and started to worry, I could feel my orgasm waiting in the back ground.
I was getting closer when her face started to change from anger to ecstasy and her nails started to dig harder into my back.
"Almost!" She breathed as her hips starting to spasm again. I could feel myself about to go as well when suddenly her arms and thighs gripped me tight and a long loud moan escaped her gaping mouth.
"Oh yes!" She cried just as my own orgasm ripped through me; but I didn't dare stop. I accelerated, and sent another wave cascading through her gyrating form. She gripped me tighter, silent this time but for a few sharp intakes of breath.
Gradually her grip subsided and I pulled out, exhausted, collapsing into the chair. She lay the desk panting, my come starting to dribble from her. She found her glasses and put them on, a little skew whiff, and looked at me.
"So when can you start?"

What else to say! Marvelous plugin!
And for all those who are rating this plugin any lower than 5 stars,
this plugin is ONLY for GENESIS framework, as mentioned CLEARLY in the description. Please don not dowvote such a fine plugin, just because you are stupid enough to not READ THE DESCRIPTION!
Plugin is lightweight, and I absolutely love the fact that it loads only on the homepage.
Thankyou jtallant
This plugin is absolutely perfect for Genesis themes. There is another slider out there for Genesis that is mobile responsive , but I always had issues with it displaying properly. This one seems to work without any tweaking.
For those who rated it low, I think they just didn't realize it was only for the Genesis framework. If you are looking for a mobile responsive slider that works with Genesis, this is it.
It's a great plugin for Genesis.
It's lightweight.
I love the fact that you can use it only on the homepage so the js doesn't load on all pages.
You can style it to your convenience.
It just works.
5 stars.

Sources: Former Seahawk Alexander to visit Redskins, might join team
Updated: October 14, 2008, 10:53 AM ETBy John Clayton and Mike Sando | ESPN.com
The Redskins have scheduled a visit Tuesday with former Seahawks running back Shaun Alexander, and, if the meeting goes according to plan, Washington will sign him to a contract, according to two sources close to the situation.
Alexander, released by the Seahawks in the offseason, has visited the Saints, Bengals and Lions, but this appears to be his first real chance of landing a job. The opening was created when backup Ladell Betts suffered a knee injury in Sunday's game ...

text: One of the new movies in theaters this weekend is Silent House, a remake of Urugayan director Gustavo Hernández's La Casa Muda that was directed by Laura Lau and Chris Kentis (Open Water). To help drum up some business for the low-budgeted horror thriller, Open Road Films has released two preview clips from the movie, including one that features an introduction by lead actress Elizabeth Olsen (Martha Marcy May Marlene). In the movie, which was shot to look like one long continuous take in real time, Olsen plays a young woman named Sarah who finds herself trapped inside her family's secluded lake house with no way to contact the outside world and seemingly no way out.

I always wondered where his dad was...and thought it was weird they had a single mom, who works as a cop. But not very often. And they have this nice big house...where's the dad?
But then a teacher mentions sending a bone he found off to his father at the dinosaur museum in Alberta.
ODS is obsessed with the show, this is the first and only time they have mentioned the dad. mind:blown. lolbtw, he is gone a lot for working at a museum!
just had to share, since I know my kid isn't the only dino dan freak.

I installed postgresql as well as postgresql-doc, nevertheless it seems that ubuntu either does not put commands in my path, or if it does put them in my path, it removes the man pages for the corresponding command. There is some logic that ensures that if a command is in the path, the man page is not, or vice versa. Not sure if this is a joke, error, or both:
to wit:
postgres@ubuntu:~$ man pg_ctl #this works!
postgres@ubuntu:~$ which pg_ctl #not in my path
postgres@ubuntu:~$ man psql
No manual entry for psql
See 'man 7 undocumented' for help when manual pages are not available.
postgres@ubuntu:~$ which psql #command is my path!
This is the same for whether I log in as my regular user or as the postgres user.
Anyone know how to get ubuntu to install both commands and man pages for the commands?
For the life of me, I can't find where the $PGDATA dir is, either. I would install postgres by source, but a package will notify me of updates. I looked on ubuntu's wiki (a single page) and couldn't find anything that talked about man pages, paths, or PGDATA. Am on ubuntu 12.10

The Poetry of D.H. Rumsfeld
Recent works by the secretary of defense.
(Continued from Page 2)
The Situation
Things will not be necessarily continuous.
The fact that they are something other than perfectly continuous
Ought not to be characterized as a pause.
There will be some things that people will see.
There will be some things that people won't see.
And life goes on.
—Oct. 12, 2001, Department of Defense news briefing
I think what you'll find,
I think what you'll find is,
Whatever it is we do substantively,
There will be near-perfect clarity
As to what it is.
And it will be known,
And it will be known to the Congress,
And it will be known to you,
Probably before we decide it,
But it will be known.
—Feb. 28, 2003, Department of Defense briefing

I couldn't find the old one that was made a while ago.
This is my most recent project, the topic was surrealism.
I made a thousand different sets of eyelashes and this is the only one that I approved of and I still don't like them. But I got tired of fixing it so it is done with. I'm working on another painting right now. It is a recreation of one of Salvador Dali's paintings.
This is just some random thing I made. It is on one of those scratch board things.

Sri Lanka is focusing on long-term strategic and structural development challenges as it strives to transition to an upper middle-income country. Key challenges include boosting investment, including in human capital, realigning public spending and policy with the needs of a middle-income country, enhancing the role of the private sector, including the provision of an appropriate environment for increasing productivity and exports, and ensuring that growth is inclusive.
Economic growth in Sri Lanka has been among the fastest in South Asia in recent years. Growth averaged 6.3 percent between 2002 and 2013, with Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita rising from US$859 in 2000 to US$3,256 in 2013. Preliminary indications are that GDP further increased by 7.8 percent in 2014.[1]
For most of the past decade, growth has been pro-poor, with consumption per capita of the bottom 40 percent growing at 3.3 percent a year, compared to 2.8 percent for the total population. Other human development indicators are also impressive by regional and lower middle income standards. Sri Lanka has surpassed most of the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) targets set for 2015, outperforming nearby country comparators on most MDGs.
Notwithstanding declining poverty, 13 districts comprising 36 percent of the total population remain below the national poverty headcount. In four conflict-affected border districts, poverty rates are at or above 20 percent. While the national unemployment level is low at 4.4 percent, 14 districts report unemployment rates higher than the national average. According to Department of Census and Statistics survey data of 2011, 76 percent of total unemployed are below 29 years of age.
Growth during the past five years has been in form of a peace dividend resulting from reconstruction efforts and increased consumption. Sustaining broad-based economic growth into the future will require determined structural reforms that stimulate productivity growth and economic diversification across sectors, driven by technology and innovation, and new market development domestically and internationally. As part of Sri Lanka's structural economic transformation, employment in primary agriculture will likely continue to decline from its present share of 30 percent of the labor force as other sectors of higher productivity absorb rural surplus labor. At the same, along with productivity increases, agriculture is likely to become more capital intensive and technology-driven as labor shortages emerge.
Improving the quality of human capital through effective education and skills development is central to Sri Lanka's economic growth and competitiveness. Continued growth will also depend largely on fostering private sector development and private investment, especially increased foreign direct investment (FDI). Sri Lanka's economy depends on FDI to bring in innovation. The import of FDI is further underscored by the country's limited domestic savings rate, brought about largely by its demographic trends. Contrary to most economies in South Asia, Sri Lanka does not have a demographic dividend: by 2036, more than 22 percent of the population will be over 60, and there will be 61 dependents per 100 adults. Increases in the labor force, employment rates and productivity will be central to growth. Against the background of an aging society, efficient and well-targeted social assistance will also become more important.
Against this backdrop, Sri Lanka is in the midst of fundamental political change, following the election of Maithripala Sirisena as President of the country in January 2015. President Sirisena and his Government have committed to a rapid 100 day program focused largely on restructuring government after which Parliament is to be dissolved and general elections held. The winning coalition in these elections would be expected to form a long-term government with a corresponding economic policy direction.

If you are having cramps (i.e. stomach suddenly feel hard as rock) 4 times in an hour, you are having real contractions. If the cramps come and go, then you probably having Braxton Hicks. Check with your doctor to see if there is any reduction in your cervical length or signs of dilation

Many people remember seeing Anasue Love walking her beloved dog, Trooper, around town.
But many women in Lancaster will remember Love, retired owner of The Dianne Shop, for the role she played in the lives of girls competing in beauty pageants.
Love died Friday morning. She was 86.
Love was the owner and buyer of The Dianne Shop in Lancaster, having inherited the children's clothing shop after the death of her mother, Beulah Mae Roddey, in 1992.
Dr. John Catalano needs the county's help to turn Lancaster into a college town.
Catalano, dean of the University of South Carolina at Lancaster, enlisted the help of County Council on Tuesday night to help fund a new classroom building on the college's campus. With high unemployment and a lack of available jobs in the county, Catalano said the key to improving the Lancaster area's economic situation begins at USCL.
INDIAN LAND – Greg Nicholson remembers the ominous glow he saw as the fire from an Indian Land printing company lit up the sky for miles.
It was about 2 a.m. on a freezing-cold night in December 1993 when Nicholson, then assistant chief of Pleasant Valley Volunteer Fire Department, headed to the blaze at a plastic bag printing company.
"I remember seeing that glow when we turned onto Possum Hollow Road off of S.C. 160," Nicholson said. "I knew we'd need help when I saw it light up that sky."
Four teachers who received Lancaster County School District's highest honor for educators were recognized at the Aug. 24 school board meeting.
Each year, the district awards four educators with the Celebrate Great Teaching award – one for a beginning teacher, one for an elementary school teacher, one for a middle school teacher and one for a high school teacher.
The 2010 winners are:
• Wendy Bartell – literacy coach, Buford Middle School (middle school)
INDIAN LAND – Drivers may have seen more blue lights than usual in the Panhandle on Friday night into Saturday.
The S.C. Highway Patrol, along with several other law enforcement agencies, participated in a crackdown to get drunk drivers off the road, Lance Cpl. Billy Elder said.
The Lancaster Police Department has issued warrants for a man suspected of a recent home invasion during which a shot was fired.
The police department is looking for Danquintan Lemark "LA" Johnson, 19, of 415 E. Dunlap St., or 2208 Caroline Court.
He is being charged with armed robbery, first-degree burglary, discharging a firearm into a dwelling, possession of a firearm during the commission of a violent crime, pointing and presenting a firearm and unlawful entry of a dwelling.
A robber shot himself in the arm during a home invasion Sunday and has been charged with several crimes in two separate incidents, according to the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office.
Carlis Wayne Oliver Jr., 35, of 1855 Colton Way, has been charged with first-degree burglary, armed robbery and possession of a gun during the commission of a violent crime in connection with the home invasion.
Oliver has also been charged with armed robbery in connection with a robbery at The Forks convenience store on Aug. 7.
Three people have been charged in a home invasion at a Crenson Drive home late last Thursday.
Sharon Teresa Dixon, 25, of 1834 Steele St., Benjamin Demarquay Caskey, 19, of 1888 Emma Circle, and Tyrese Tyrell White, 18, of 4129 Old Camden Highway, Heath Springs, have each been charged by the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office with first-degree burglary and armed robbery.
Dixon has been charged with robbery while armed or allegedly armed with a deadly weapon, and Caskey and White have been charged with possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime.
Riverside Volunteer Fire Department was at a crossroads.
The year was 2005. The issue was the future of the department.
Jeff Walden, then the assistant chief and now the chief, set up a meeting. He called it a "commitment meeting."
"We were struggling with manpower, struggling to keep the doors open," Walden said. "There was a lot of grumbling going on about changes in county, state and federal requirements."
Walden wanted everyone there to commit to moving the department forward.
Lancaster County is hosting sessions this month to solicit input from residents as the initial step in a countywide master planning process for the Carolina Thread Trail (The Thread).
The Thread is a network of trails, greenways, blueways and conservation corridors linking 15 counties in North and South Carolina. It offers opportunities for biking, hiking, fishing, paddling and connecting with nature.
The Thread is made up of segments that are designed, built and owned by the counties and municipalities through which the trail network is woven.

370 Southwestern Historical Quarterly October
finds that fears of their expansionism fueled American Manifest Destiny. There
is an essay by Josefina Zoraida Vazquez, Mexico's leading authority on this peri-
od. She examines the many factors that led to Mexico's loss of this conflict, in-
cluding the machinations of the European powers and the proliferation of
local rebellions. Bruce Winders's essay on the behavior of volunteers in the
U.S. Army points out the chaotic and undisciplined behaviors of this group. He
examines the political intrigues and conflicts that were so important within the
U.S. military of this period.
The Mexican historian Miguel Gonzilez gives us a personal reflection on the
harsh realities of the war in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, trying to assess why this
town fell to the Americans. Michael Roth in his essay reminds us that 1846 was
also the birth of the foreign war correspondent as more than fifty newspapers
sent journalists to Mexico. They helped shape, for better or for worse, the Amer-
ican imagination about Mexico and Mexicans. Douglas Richmond presents a fas-
cinating examination of the problems that the Mexican government had in
commanding loyalty during the conflict. Collaborators of all kinds helped the
American army in its intelligence-gathering and occupation of Mexico. Rebel-
lions in the northern and southern regions of the Mexican republic during the
war weakened their war effort. The final essay by Professor Robert W. Johannsen
examines how the U.S.-Mexican War fit into the prevailing themes of popular
culture, an ebullient optimism and self-confidence, as well as an uncritical faith
in republicanism. We learn of how Whitman's early support of the war began to
lessen as he came to understand it as a moral wrong.
Dueling Eagles is an admirable attempt to present the U.S.-Mexican War as a bi-
national historical event that has various interpretations. Contemporaneous to
the creation of this anthology, KERA-TV in Dallas, Texas, finished their four-
hour PBS documentary, The U.S.-Mexican War. This documentary, produced by
Paul Espinosa and Sylvia Komatsu, involved historians from both sides of the
border--another binational effort to give a more balanced view of this conflict.
As admirable as both these efforts have been, the task is not over.

In Lafayette of the South, historian Jeff Kinard resurrects the often overlooked
military career of the French mathematician and soldier of fortune, Prince
Camille de Polignac. While noting that Polignac served in the French army dur-
ing both the Crimean and Franco-Prussian Wars, Kinard focuses primarily on
the Frenchman's military accomplishments while an officer in the Confederate
Army during the American Civil War. Polignac began his Civil War career as a
staff officer in the western theater. He served under Generals P. G. T. Beaure-
gard, Braxton Bragg, and Edmund Kirby Smith, eventually winning distinction
for his exploits during the battle of Richmond, Kentucky, in August 1862. How-
ever, Polignac, who volunteered for service in the southern cause for fame and

The Door to a Better Life; Shereen Low Speaks to Nicholas Allan, Author of the Complete Guide to Gatecrashing, to Get Some Tips on How to Live Life Large
Byline: Shereen Low
Sitting all alone at home with no parties to go to? Well, don't despair because now you can learn how to freeload your way to a more glamorous life.
Free food, quality bubbly or simply hob-nobbing with the stars is a surefire way to give your social life the kick it needs this Christmas - and it's an art that can be taught.
According to Nicholas Allan, gatecrasher extraordinaire and author of The Complete Guide To Gatecrashing, the freeloader is a figure of wonder. The gatecrasher looks enigmatic, seductive and charismatic.
'Gatecrashing is a skill which eventually becomes an art because you have to learn to rely on your intuition,' Allan explains.
'I've been gatecrashing for three years and in that time, you learn to become more adept at interpreting different situations.
'The best parties that I've gatecrashed have been the ones that I know nothing about - for example, where you're passing a party in a hotel. You then have to work quickly and think of a way to get in without being noticed.'
In fact, one of the parties that Allan gatecrashed was after a routine appointment at the hospital. Having noticed the champagne reception and buffet about to start, Allan immediately rushed straight there after his appointment.
Allan got his first taste of gatecrashing when he was attending a concert at London's Royal Festival Hall. While waiting for a friend, he was approached by a waiter who offered him a glass of bubbly. He soon found himself inside the party, with a glass of free champagne in his hand.
He says: 'This was an epiphany, the discovery of a case of buried banknotes. The world, I suddenly realised, was my party. If gatecrashing is an addiction, like smoking or shoplifting I was hooked.'
So how does a best-selling author turn into a gatecrashing junkie?
Allan pinpoints it to his lifestyle. 'I live alone in a flat in London. As a full-time writer, I can go for five days without talking to anyone.
'My problem is wondering what to do in the evening. I want to drink in the evenings but one of my rules is that I never drink alone.
'Therefore, I have to go out seeking nightly company so that I can have a drink. A writer wants company, but on their own terms,' he divulges.
'A party, especially a party of strangers, is the ideal milieu. I can drink and talk, and then walk away.
'In addition to that, there's the added thrill of the risk - it's always exciting to try to push yourself one step further and the fun lies in deceiving people. Not to forget the delicious free food and the alcohol.
'However, gatecrashing can be a very lonely pastime,' Allan adds. 'The constant deception of gatecrashing - the daily habit of lying - leads you into a private world, like that of a successful hitman.
'Gatecrashing can become an addiction - the need to gatecrash overrides any consideration for others. Deceit becomes, not only natural, but preferable. …

Got a call from an old friend we'd used to be real close
Said he couldn't go on the American way
Closed the shop, sold the house, bought a ticket to the west coast
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.
I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm allright
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
Go ahead with your own life leave me alone
I never said you had to offer me a second chance
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
I still belong
Don't get me wrong
And you can speak your mind
But not on my time
They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place
Then they'll tell you can't sleep with somebody else
Ah but sooner or later you sleep in your own space
Either way it's O.K. you wake up with yourself

A hospital inundated with victims of war pauses a moment to celebrate the marriage of two of its staff.
Syrian rebels made advances in Aleppo last night. This morning, as the UN-brokered cease-fire went into effect, the Syrian Army retaliated.
Two previous cease-fire attempts failed, and both the Syrian Army and rebels have hedged their commitment to this one.
Combating the constant text messages from regime forces declaring them terrorists, rebels fight an information campaign, sending images of Aleppo's death and destruction worldwide.
United Nations Syria envoy Brahimi said both the Syrian government and rebels agreed to a cease-fire for Eid al-Adha, but major disagreements could foil its chances of success.
An Arab League official indicates a cease-fire is unlikely as Syrian President Assad has signaled little support. Meanwhile, the conflict is showing signs of spilling into Lebanon and Jordan.
The bomb killed at least 13 people in Damascus. In another part of the capital, UN envoy Lakhdar Brahimi met with President Bashar Assad.
Locals in eastern Turkey, bearing the brunt of the fallout from Turkey's involvement in Syria, believe Ankara is merely a pawn in US plans to foment conflict in the region.
Gen. Wissam al-Hassan's assassination in today's bombing is the most significant political killing in Lebanon since that of the former prime minister in 2005.
At least not one that matters.
Iran and Turkey back opposite sides in the Syria conflict, but the two powers are united in support for UN envoy Lakhdar Brahimi's proposal for a cease-fire later this month.
Keen to secure loyalty, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has granted Syria's Kurds de facto control over predominantly Kurdish areas of the country. But with the freedom, divisions have emerged.
The United Nations' envoy to Syria, Lakhdar Brahimi, visited Beirut today touting a fresh cease-fire for Syria. Damascus said it could support the plan, but said rebel disunity is a key obstacle.
If hard evidence emerges of the Shiite militant group's involvement, it would increase tensions in Lebanon where armed partisans on opposite sides live in close proximity.
A week after raising Russian ire by grounding a plane traveling from Russia to Syria, Turkey grounded an Armenian airliner – this time in a routine check arranged in a recently inked agreement.
A Human Rights Watch report points to new evidence that the Syrian regime is using the widely-banned munitions, which pose a significant risk to civilians long into the future.
Turkey's grounding of a Syrian plane allegedly carrying weapons from Moscow to Damascus has put Moscow and Ankara – which have been cooperating in recent years – at odds.
With Turkey and the Syrian regime on opposite sides of the antigovernment uprising in Syria, flare-ups like the Turkish grounding of a Syrian jet this week carry great risk of tipping the two into open conflict.
The details of the Turkish grounding of a Syrian passenger plane earlier this week remain murky, but that hasn't stopped Turkey and Syria from trading accusations.
The Syrian Army's pounding of the territory between Homs and the Lebanese border has sent hundreds of Syrian fighters and civilians fleeing to the Lebanese town of Masharih al-Qaa.
Turkey, already on the brink of a conflict with Syria, may now be facing tensions with Moscow after grounding a flight from Russia on suspicion that it was carrying weapons for the Syrian regime
Several Syrian mortars landed in Turkey today. The two countries have exchanged fire for the past week, though Syria says it does not want a military confrontation.
While the US and other Western nations resist being drawn into the fighting in Syria, Turkey is feeling the direct effects of bloodshed and refugees, putting pressure on Ankara to act.
Residents of the Turkish border town of Akçakale buried their dead and blamed their government in Ankara for not acting sooner to stop Syrian shelling.
After Syria shelled a Turkish town yesterday and killed five civilians, Turkey returned fire and went to NATO. However, experts say Turkey's moves are more about deterrence.
