I have been searching for a few minutes on google for solutions to my problem. Because nothing has resolved my issue I thought I would post my question. First, inside Server Statistics, there are broken images. The only thing that comes up is "Mailbox Quota". Second, in Server Status it says, "Server status data is not available. To see the server status, logger service must be installed." Of course, the logger service is installed and started. Third, while banging around at this I found that I cannot get into the mysql instance. I found a log message that said to change the password by issuing a mysqladmin command which did not work because it seems like the password was already changed to something. I didnt change it and this is a new install.
I am running FC5 with zcs-4.5.0_RC2_566.FC5. Thanks for your help in advance and let me know if there is anymore information that I forgot to include. Thank you.

FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. (WUSA9/Fairfax County Police) --- Bloodhound puppies, Bolt and Silas, are just a few months old. But they're already into training with the Fairfax County Bloodhound Program.
They'll join other dogs on the force in using their keen sense of smell to find missing people and track down evidence.
Bloodhounds have been a valuable asset to law enforcement around the region for many years. Trained for both criminal and non-criminal missions, they do not bite when they find a person and are ideal to help locate missing children or dementia patients. Bloodhounds are trained to indicate the presence of a trail and locate missing people, using scents that may be hours or days old.
They've saved lives, been instrumental in solving major cases by identifying specific homes and vehicles relating to crimes, and saved valuable time for detectives by helping to quickly provide information on direction of travel of suspects.
Bolt and Silas will be trained by MPO Pete Masood and PFC Kevin Clarke, who will use the renowned "Kocher Method."
Historically, the Fairfax County Bloodhound program began in 2002 with Charger and Molly, who grew to over 110 pounds. They served until they retired in 2008. Fairfax hounds are often requested by jurisdictions that do not have them.

First Ridler Winner Al Bergler - The Tin ManWritten by on April 23, 2012 Contributors: Al Bergler Collection
RIDLER. There are only a couple of awards in hot rodding that really count. One is the Don Ridler Memorial Award, given annually since 1964 to the best new car in the Detroit Autorama. Local racer, builder, and aluminum fabricator extraordinaire Al Bergler earned the very first Ridler with a homebuilt race car he still owns. "I've won a lot of drag races and a lot of trophies and awards," he says, 47 years later. "But the Ridler never goes away. Everybody knows who won the first one, but hardly anyone remembers who won the second."
Al grew up within earshot of Michigan's old Motor City Speedway, listening to those screaming engines. When he was old enough, he got a job there selling popcorn, peanuts, and programs, just to be near the excitement. Right out of high school, he went to work in a body shop and started learning the trade that would shape the rest of his life, along with a whole lot of sheetmetal.
Bergler's first race car was a '34 Ford three-window coupe, bought for $50. He immediately swapped in a 392 Chrysler Hemi and went drag racing at Motor City Dragway. Next came a mid-engined Crosley, then a Chassis Research slingshot cloaked in Austin Bantam bodywork, both powered by the same 392. That Competition Coupe marked his first collaboration with a couple of other Detroit drag racing legends, Ron and Gene Logghe. In the process of building a front axle and suspension for Bergler's Aggravation, the brothers became Al's friends. The trio's combined talents would later produce More Aggravation, the Bantam that won the '64 Ridler Award and the '66 NHRA Springnationals, and a canopied '27 T modified roadster.
When Mercury Division selected Logghe Stamping Co. to build the first one-piece, flip-top Funny Cars for 1966, the brothers subcontracted Al to do the aluminum interiors and spoilers. That was the end of his job at the body shop and the beginning of Al Bergler Enterprises. As Funny Cars exploded in popularity in the late '60s and '70s, so did Al's business. "Everybody came through my shop back then: Roland Leong, Whipple & McCulloch, Tommy Ivo, Tom McEwen, Jungle Jim," he recalls. "My neighbors saw all those rigs coming and going and thought I was raking in the money. In fact, I was losing money. All those guys were using my lights, my electricity, my tools, my phone. Then they'd just pack up and leave! But it was great fun back then."
Fun turned into a second career in 1970, when Bergler, who had graduated from Competition Eliminator to a Top Gas Dragster, grew weary of running for peanuts while his Funny Car friends were touring, match racing, and making lots of money. Teaming with Pete Seaton and Tom Prock, Al built the first Vega-bodied Logghe fuel flopper, followed by his own successful series of Motown Shakers. In 1982, he retired from drag racing to concentrate on his first love: building hot rods. The entire Funny Car operation went to a racer in Sweden. "That was the toughest day of my life, watching all that stuff disappear down my driveway. Not one part was left."
For the next couple of decades, he resisted all temptations and invitations to return. However, the introduction of Cacklefest (by Greg Sharp and Steve Gibbs of the NHRA Museum and Hot Rod Reunions) presented an irresistible opportunity for veterans like Al to experience the sights, sounds, and smells they'd been missing--without succumbing to the addiction of actual competition. Cackling gave Al a good reason, finally, to restore one race car that he hadn't sent down the road. The Ridler-winning More Aggravation was made literally better than new when Al converted the gas-burning AA/Competition Sedan into a fueler. He and Ed Golden also restored the Probe III slingshot that Al helped create in 1968.
Of his first cackle in Golden's dragster at Bowling Green's National Hot Rod Reunion, Al says, "Mike Kuhl helped us with the engine so we could run about 80 percent, make some noise, and make some flames. A friend of mine had a '64 Cadillac with a pushbar there, so he pushed me down the strip. I did the clutch thing, hit the switch, started it up, turned it around, sat there, and cried like a baby! To be able to do this again after 30 years was just unbelievable."
At 74, Al still bends tin for himself and friends in a backyard shop crowded with race cars, hot rods, and vintage racing and street engines. Among the cars are a '55 Plymouth ready to receive a Hemi crate engine, two dragsters waiting to be restored, and Al's own chopped '40 Ford convertible, awaiting its Cadillac V8. In his basement playroom sits an astonishing collection of vintage Wurlitzer, Seeburg, and Rock-Ola jukeboxes, pinball machines, more than 40 vintage pedal cars, old shop and store clocks, neon signs, tin signs, and there, right in the middle, his big Autorama trophy from 1964. As he said, the Ridler never goes away; neither does Al Bergler.

Here's your first-ever Ridler Award presentation, during the 1964 Detroit Autorama. Al Bergler's brand-new, Bantam-bodied More Aggravation (background) was honored as the show's best new build. Named for Michigan athlete and promoter Don Ridler, the trophy was presented to the 28-year-old builder and driver by Don's widow, Phyllis Ridler, at Cobo Hall.The first hot rod that Al built started out as a Model-A coupe. Still living at home in 1958 and working in his parents' garage, Al removed the roof, chopped and channeled the body, and installed a six-carb Hemi. Dig those individual weedburner headers!Realizing the traction benefits of a midmounted engine early on, Al picked a roomy Crosley wagon to become his first dedicated drag car. Pictured at Detroit Dragway during the '59 NHRA Nationals, Al's radically chopped and channeled A/Comp car was powered by a well-worn 392 Chrysler that had been discarded by the Ethyl Corp.'s research lab.Realizing the traction benefits of a midmounted engine early on, Al picked a roomy Crosley wagon to become his first dedicated drag car. Pictured at Detroit Dragway during the '59 NHRA Nationals, Al's radically chopped and channeled A/Comp car was powered by a well-worn 392 Chrysler that had been discarded by the Ethyl Corp.'s research lab.Al's first Austin Bantam, a Chassis Research dragster in disguise, was also the first to carry Aggravation identification. The 392 plucked from his Crosley wagon is now enhanced by a 6-71 blower and Enderle injector. Alas, the increased horsepower combined with the severely set back, all-steel body produced pushbar-scraping wheelstands until Al started stacking weight on the nose.Also note the homemade, upswept headers, years before zoomies became common. He's pictured between rounds at some Michigan strip in the early '60s.In a rare shot sans its Bergler-built aluminum nosepiece, More Aggravation dumps the laundry at Motor City Dragway, north of Detroit. The AA/Comp car ran a best 8.10 seconds at 184 mph on gas, setting NHRA's national record six or seven times during the mid-'60s, according to Al. The same Bob's Drag Chutes parachute pack is on the restored car today.Here's the first photo we've seen of both the Ridler-winning More Aggravation (background) and its swoopy successor, Al's T-bodied AA/Modified Roadster. The scene is Cobo Hall in 1967, where Al's new creation was nominated for a second Ridler Award but was beaten out by the Alexander brothers' Dodge Deora A100 pickup. Aggravation III's main body was a fiberglass '27 T roadster, fitted with aluminum fairings and a nose by Bergler. This was the only time both cars appeared together.Bergler's biggest career weekend occurred in 1966 at Bristol, where he won both Super Eliminator (the precursor to Comp) and Best Appearing Car honors at NHRA's second Springnationals. On the left is the late Bristol Dragway (and Motor Speedway) builder/promoter Larry Carrier, who subsequently switched to AHRA sanction before founding IHRA.
See the weird windshield frame in this '66 Indy Nationals shot? During tech inspection, Al was told that his laid-back, plexiglass windshield amounted to an illegal aerodynamic device, forbidden by AA/C rules. So, he went to a nearby hardware store, bought some tubing and flat glass, and fabricated this vertical replacement. The temporary fix had no effect on the car's performance.Many folks then and since regard "The Canopy Car" as the most beautiful modified roadster ever constructed. NHRA officials validated those opinions by voting it Best Appearing of the '68 Winternationals. Its sexy canopy was lifted from the short-lived Logghe, Steffey & Marsh Top Fuel streamliner and presented to Al by the Logghe brothers, who also built the chassis. This AA/MR was sold when Al graduated to Top Gas Eliminator. He's hopeful that some helpful HRD reader will tip him to the whereabouts of the car, which he'd love to restore and cackle.Al has condensed Al Bergler Enterprises into this crowded hobby shop behind his Shelby Township, Michigan, home, but his pace has slackened only slightly.The popular tin man who earned nationwide fame for forming aluminum dragster bodies and Funny Car interiors is backed up with business from hot rodders, nostalgia racers, and cacklers patiently awaiting the master's hammer.Luckily for Bergler and us, Al saved and restored his last Bantam-bodied AA/Competition Sedan. This tin man's superb bodywork complements a Logghe brothers chassis, front axle, and torsion-bar suspension. Al reinstalled this controversial, laid-back windshield immediately following the '66 NHRA Nationals. These are the original wire wheels and Pirelli tires from 1964!At Midwestern cacklefests, Al's many fans are pleased to find their hero attired in his old firesuit, face mask, goggles, and lettered helmet.Al built this minimal, super-sano cockpit from scratch. The direct-drive unit between his legs transmits the Chrysler Firepower from a double-disc clutch to the 4.10:1 Olds rearend.
he 480-cid stroker motor that produced national-record bests of 8.10 seconds and 184 mph in the mid-'60s has been replaced by a virtually identical '92 that cackles nitromethane. Period-perfect components include Mondello heads, Isky cam, Cragar's 6-71 manifold and drive, Hilborn injectors, Vertex mag, Moldex stroker crank, and Mickey Thompson connecting rods, rocker arms, and valve covers. The distinctive, fiberglass injector scoop and classic weedburner pipes were fabricated by Al.

Fly Tying > Special Events - Local, National, whatever
Informal Fly Tying January 2012 and beyond
(1/2) > >>
Can't get enough of your fellow TFF fly-tying buddies? Need more time on the bench? "Tying Flies and Telling Lies" Now comes to TFF! By now, everyone should have read the post on the TFF website, but "leaving no stone unturned" I wanted to let everyone know that TFF will now host regular "open forum" fly tying on the 2nd and 3rd Tuesday of the month starting at 6PM and promptly ending at 8:30PM at the Bayland Community Center. Harry was good enough to make the arrangements for us in the Art Room, but check the board when you come in just in case some other group is using it. This is "open forum" and we are free to come in an just tie flies and share ideas. At 8:30pm, we got stop and we got to clean up after ourselves. Questions? 210-414-7418, Bob L.
I'll nominate myself to be the Guinea pig to test out the flys Saltwater perferred but fresh water bass will be OK! Hope to see you there sometime. Bring a camera and take photos of the steps taken to tie up some of the flys. Also record who attends. Brownie points will be given to attendees that donate their flys to me... REALLY ;D
I'll be there. My flies for tonight will be:
These 3 are my winter FreshWater Go-To flies
Well hello fellow TFF'ers. I thought I would attend the initial nite of our informal fly tying get togethers. Don had the doors open and Bob and Jim had completed their setting up. Puck was already finishing up one of his Skrat flys and was starting another. So I thought I whip out my new camera and get a few shots for you at home.
You guys know this guy, the legendary PUCKSTER.
Here Puck is putting the finishing touches on one of his famous Hare-E's that slave everything that swims out at Damen Lakes!
As Puck had arrived early he also had to leave early to return to the house. Here's a picture of his flys from tonite!
James was tying a salty looking Gurgler Blanco. This fly has potential in the right hands...who me? Here he is wrapping in the foam.
This fly took patients, here he is wrapping in the body (I'm sure there is a technical term - why do you think I'm here!)
Now he is pulling back into position the foam.
A few quick wraps.
After a few clip clips and snip snips, a lil glue here and there and WHA-LA! Isn't she purdy...
Thanks to Jim Richards for your attendance.
Here is where Jim got his patterns for tonite. Don't stop now only eight more to go. I like a set please.
Now Mr. Logan...well let's just say this man is driven to tie. He was all about the freshwater scud eating shrimp tonite. He brought his how to magazine and followed the pattern of the famous Oh he made me promise not to tell! Here's James and Bob accessing the theory behind the tying specifications.
This hook was very interesting. Note the curved profile. Very flexible too. Ask Bob about it the next time you see him.
Here he is wrapping in the first few wraps of the body using mono.
Next he is using the microfibetts to form the portion of the soon to be head and horn...this stuff was cool.
Using a backround (Bob's Shirt was busier than Westheimer at five o'clock) the microfibetts are now in place.
These were the trick of this fly...the eyes (green) made by Metz. Use your zoom on this pic.
Now he has added the body by tying small segmented bunches of microfiber (I think...ask him)
Not a great picture but the eyes have now been added and the critter is coming alive.
Now he is applying the flexible epoxy to form the shrimps shell.
Quickly the ultraviolet is applied to cure the resin material.
There she is in the upper left hand corner. Bob also banged out the rest of these tonite.
Here is where Bob learned this pattern and he aspires to tie as well as these that are shown. From what I saw that could be tomorrow. By the way those are Bob's (the small ones) laid on the Magazine photograph. NICE STUFF BOB!!!!!!!
I had a great time tonite and hope to see some more of you here next Tuesday night. Sombody bring a bucket of chicken and some biscuits!
PS Here is data on Jim Richard's Fly
The fly I tied last night was the Gurgler Like version of a fly many in this area know as the "Red Fish Crack" fly.
The tail is craft fur and the body is EP fibers with micro legs. I tied on a double weed guard and used black mono eyes. I used white foam. This was the first of this version of the fly I have tied. It is intended to skitter along the top of the water like a shrimp. As you may have noticed the foam was tied in from the front and the front of the fly was round rather than flat like most Gurglers. The round front is intended to prevent the fly from catching water in the front and allowing the fly to skitter accross the top of the water like a popping shrimp.
I have tied some of these flies in the past which did not have the foam-some with bead chain eyes, some with dumbell eyes and some without eyes. This is the fly I call "Red Fish Crack".
I have found a number of Crack addict Red Fish in Port O' Connor and a few in Galveston which went after this fly. The most productive colors for me have been an olive body with a tan tail and solid white both tied with pink thread. In very shallow water I have had Crack Addict Reds go for the fly in Olive without any eyes at all on it. This design of course creates a very slow sink and is nice to have in very shallow water.
Hopefully, this is the type of information for which you were looking but if not let me know.
I will plan on making the forum next month but have a conflict with another meeting on Tuesday of next week.
So Mike - does this mean you will start tying your own flies instead of scrounging them off every one else?? :)

BALTIMORE (WUSA/AP) -- One person is in custody after a football player was shot on the campus of Morgan State University, according to WJZ.
The school had posted an alert on its website on Friday afternoon, saying that "an emergency condition exists" and instructing people on campus to remain indoors.
Baltimore City Police, who recovered a weapon from the scene, say that the football player was shot at about 1 p.m. in the 1700-block of East Cold Spring Lane, which runs through part of the school's campus.
A Morgan State spokesman said there was a dispute between victim and suspect before the shooting. No charges have been filed yet. Police say witnesses have been taken in for questioning.
The man's injuries are not expected to be fatal.
It is unclear whether the suspect is a student.
In September, a shooting at the campus' student center injured one person who was not a student. A suspect was later arrested in that incident.
Morgan State is a historically black university with an enrollment of about 6,000.

We help you GET OUT OF A LEASE by finding someone who wants to TAKE OVER your lease through a lease transfer.
Actually swapping leases is not necessary! You can get out of a lease or get into a lease.
Dear Valued Swapalease Customer,
It has been brought to our attention that several individuals posing as legitimate lease buyers have been contacting consumers selling vehicles via online listing services, including Swapalease.com, on a fraudulent basis. As it applies to lease transfers, they are essentially writing their own lease transfer contracts, as opposed to the proper way of transferring a lease under the supervision of the leasing company. In fact, this method of transferring one's lease ('subleasing') is often a breach of contract and may be illegal.
Thankfully, this practice is easy to spot because the only way to properly transfer a lease is through the leasing company with no exceptions. Anyone who tells you they have another way to officially transfer your lease outside of or without the knowledge of the leasing company should not be dealt with. Note that even though the Swapalease.com New Lease and New Loan Programs process differs from a typical lease transfer, the transaction is handled in conjunction with the lease company. Important: Please contact Swapalease.com when you are ready to move forward with your lease transfer. Not only will this ensure we are there to guide you through the proper lease transfer process and to answer any questions you may have, but also to further maintain a safe marketplace for all by preventing subleasing transactions from occurring. Remember that we are here to help! Please feel free to contact us with any questions at 1-866-SWAP-NOW (1-866-792-7669) or via email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Websites like Swaplease.com have helped facilitate such transactions. You pay to dump a lease, but the price can be thousands less than you would owe if you turned the lease in early to a dealer. Meanwhile, buyers can pick up some sweet rides for hundreds less than their normal cost, with short-term contracts and no down payment.
Consumers aren't limited to what's being offered on the auto lots. They can buy a car, or take over someone else's lease on Web sites like Swapalease.com, a popular site that act as matchmakers between buyers and sellers.
Terminating a Car Lease
The problem:
Getting out of a cal lease early
The Solution:
Find someone to take over your lease through service such as Swapalease.com. The site charges a fee to post a listing, and say finding someone is easiest for leases with 24 months or less left.

According to today's headlines the Large Hadron Collider (not, as I believe the Times had it when it was switched on, the Large Hard-on Collider – and I apologise if it was not the Times, but rather some other quality paper) has created a Mini Big Bang. Aside from the obvious oxymoron, this is also not actually correct as when we read the article we find that the LHC has only allowed us to create the conditions a millionth of a second after the Big Bang, impressive as this is, rather than at the moment of the Big Bang itself.
This is not altogether surprising as one of the key things about the Big Bang is that as we theoretically run time backwards towards the big moment, all space and time are compressed into a singularity: a point of zero dimensions of infinite density and all our known laws of physics cease to operate, or rather cease to be predictable in any meaningful way because of the infinities in the equations. In other words we cannot understand the Big Bang, and thus even if the LHC were to create a mini Big Bang then we would still not be able to understand the maths. The whole question of what happened before the moment of the Big Bang is completely pointless, not just because according to many physicists time was created in the Big Bang and therefore there was no before, in the same way there is nothing north of the North Pole, but because we cannot know.
Also in today's paper there is an account of unprovables in mathematics. It seems there are certain things that we are just not capable of knowing in any scientifically meaningful way. The correct scientific approach to this is to say, 'We don't know', however the natural human response is to switch from physics to metaphysics and start pretending that we do, and many scientists are happy to do this and to pretend that the meta- is missing.
It was J.B.S. Haldane who said, 'My own suspicion is that the universe is not only queerer than we suppose, but queerer than we can suppose,' and my own suspicion is that he was right.

Arlington, TX (Sports Network) - Nick Florence threw for 396 yards and three
touchdowns as he guided the Baylor Bears to a 52-45 win in overtime over the
Texas Tech Red Raiders in Big 12 action at Cowboys' Stadium in Arlington,
Florence completed 22-of-37 pass attempts for Baylor (6-5, 3-5 Big 12) which
became bowl eligible with the win. Lache Seastrunk rushed for 136 yards and
Glasco Martin picked up 98 yards and a pair scores, including the game-winner
in overtime. Terrance Williams brought in seven passes for 175 yards and a
touchdown and Lanear Sampson had five receptions for 91 yards and a touchdown.
Seth Doege threw for 359 yards and three touchdowns on 30-of-40 pass but was
intercepted three times for Texas Tech (7-5, 4-5) which was playing its final
game of the regular season. Darrin Moore caught 13 passes for 186 yards and
two scores while Eric Ward brought in nine passes for 113 yards and a
touchdown. Kenny Williams rushed for 89 yards and a score.
Doege scored on a 19-yard touchdown run less than five minutes into the game
to open up the scoring.
The Red Raiders would add to that lead with a five-yard touchdown run from
Kenny Williams later in the quarter.
Baylor got its first points of the game with a one-yard touchdown run from
Martin with 12 seconds left in the first period.
Less than a minute later Texas Tech got into the end zone yet again with a 23-
yard touchdown pass from Doege to Ward.
Florence's first touchdown pass came with five seconds left before halftime on
a 39-yard strike to Levi Norwood.
Texas Tech led 21-14 at the half.
The Red Raiders got a 29-yard field goal from Ryan Bustin to open up the
scoring in the second half.
Later in the third quarter, Florence scored on a four-yard touchdown run to
pull the Bears to within three points, 24-21.
On the ensuing kickoff Jakeem Grant returned the ball 97 yards for a touchdown
to add to Texas Tech's lead.
Baylor answered with a 27-yard touchdown pass from Florrence to Sampson to
keep the score clsoe, 31-28.
Baylor jumped out to its first lead of the game early in the fourth quarter
when Eddie Lackey returned an interception 55 yards for a touchdown.
The Red Raiders reclaimed the lead with a 15-yard pass from Doege to Moore on
its next posession.
Florence answered right back with a four-yard touchdown pass to Williams.
Not to be out done Doege completed a 63-yard drive with a six-yard touchdown
pass to Moore on its next posession.
Florence then took over trailing 45-42 with a little more than six minutes
remaining. Florence drove the team 65 yards but the Bears were forced to
settle for a 22-yard, game-tying field goal from Aaron Jones with more than
two minutes remaining.
Lackey collected another interception on Texas Tech's next posession and
Baylor was able to get to within field goal range. However Jones missed a
48-yard attempt as time expired to send the game to overtime.
Baylor got the ball first and scored on a four-yard touchdown run from Martin.
Texas Tech was unable to answer with Doege's final pass attempt on fourth
and five falling incomplete.
The two teams combined for 1,241 yards of total offense and 13 touchdowns.

Cyclones to Make Three ESPNU Appearances in 2014
AMES, Iowa – The Iowa State volleyball team will be making three appearances on national TV in 2014, the Big 12 Conference announced Monday afternoon. The Cyclones will have three matches on ESPNU, all conference match-ups, and all from Hilton Coliseum.
ISU's match against Oklahoma originally scheduled for Oct. 11 is being moved to Oct. 12 and will start at 1 p.m. The Cyclones' match-up against Kansas on Oct. 22, originally scheduled for 6:30 p.m., will be moved up to 6 p.m. to accommodate the ESPNU timeslot. The Big 12's premier volleyball rivalry, Iowa State vs. Texas, which was originally scheduled for Nov. 1, has been moved to Nov. 2 and will start at 1 p.m. All times are Central Time.
2014 will mark the fifth consecutive season that the Iowa State volleyball program will be featured among ESPNU's college volleyball broadcasts. Three of the previous four seasons have had ESPNU visit Ames for a match, giving the Cyclones the chance to show off its match-day environment to a national audience.
The Cyclones' sweep of Oklahoma on Nov. 9 of last season was Iowa State's highest-attended match of the season as 3,707 watched Iowa State avenge an early-season loss against the Sooners in Norman. OU advanced to the second round of the NCAA Championship before eventually falling to No. 3 Stanford in Palo Alto, Calif. The Sooners finished 2013 24-8 and tied for third in the Big 12 with Iowa State at 11-5.
Iowa State and Kansas also split their season series last season, but with both squads winning on each other's court. One of the best matches of the Big 12 season took part in Lawrence, Kan. last season as Iowa State was able to out-last No. 23 Kansas in five sets. A month later, KU was able to get one back on ISU with a four-set win in Ames. The Jayhawks made their first Regional Semifinal appearance in 2013, finishing with a 25-8 record with a 12-4 Big 12 mark.
Texas made it to the National Semifinals last season, finishing with a 27-3 mark overall and an undefeated 16-0 mark in the Big 12. UT's best shots in Big 12 play came from the Cyclones, as ISU was the only Big 12 school to take a set off the Longhorns in each meeting. Texas' last loss in Big 12 play came against the Cyclones in Hilton Coliseum late in 2012, when ISU took down the Longhorns in five sets.
Iowa State's remaining 11 home matches, including the season-opening AVCA Showcase matches against Stanford and Florida State and the Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series showdown against Iowa, will be shown on Cyclones.TV Powered by Mediacom. Arrangements for ISU away matches to be televised will be made by the host institutions and will be announced when finalized.
The 2014 Iowa State volleyball season opens at Hilton Coliseum on Aug. 29 at 7 p.m. against Stanford as part of the AVCA Showcase.

Motor & Carb Combo Upgrade For Our Challenger - Spacing On Out Carb-O-NationWritten by on March 1, 2002 A Primer On Small-Block Spacers And Carburetors In The Real World
Although there are many things to consider when building an engine combination, few are as critical or mysterious as selecting the proper carburetor. After all, there are dozens of possible candidates for your engine, from vacuum-secondary spread-bores to 4500-series Dominators, not to mention multiple-unit options. Rated by cfm (cubic feet per minute), carburetors significantly determine your fuel curve and engine efficiency. Too little carb, and the engine will starve for air/fuel power at the top end; too much carb, and it won't flow air fast enough to properly atomize the mixture.
This story is a continuation of our slick budget small-block series, which will be familiar to former readers of High Performance Mopar. We built a low-budget 360 and installed it in a Dodge Challenger. This is a street-strip machine, so after consulting with Holley's recommendation chart for size and style of carb based on combination, we selected a 750-cfm double-pumper for the combination. After some baseline testing, we found some significant gains through tuning and spacers. The car uses a stock Edelbrock Performer RPM intake and a set of mildlly ported heads.
But there was more to the story than simply swapping on the new juice pot. The Challenger's gas tank had numerous rust spots and leaked, a dangerous situation in any regard. It was decided that before we began the real-world testing, this E-Body was going to need some upgrades. To that end, we secured a replacement gas tank and 3/8-inch pickup from The Paddock, prepped it with restoration coatings from Eastwood, and installed it. At the same time, plans were made to install a new 3/8-inch fuel line and a Holley electric pump in the rear; time constraints prevented that from happening for our first test, which, in turn, skewed our baseline results to some extent.
Getting back to carb selection, race-only cars normally run huge carbs because they're lighter, have high-stall converters and steep rear gears, and don't have to be concerned about part-throttle driveability. On the other hand, cars like the ones we use (the Challenger and a '67 440-powered Coronet R/T) see many street miles. Indeed, they're driven more than 90 minutes each way to the test sessions we hold at Raceway Park in Englishtown, New Jersey, so streetability is critical. Strip-testing has proven that better 60-foot times will translate to increased throttle response on the street.
While a given motor/carb combo may seem very good on the shop engine dyno, it may be lacking in street manners. For example, a heavy (3,800-pound) car with a stock converter and 3.23 gears will be a candidate for a vacuum secondary carb, since the engine's response will have a softer upswing; too much fuel here, and the engine will choke trying to catch up. Take the same engine and swap it into a 3,200-pound A-Body that stalls at 3,000 rpm with a 4.10 gear (still streetable, but not as pleasant a cruise ride), and a double-pumper is the way to go; it'll take all the fuel now, thank you. Like any other component, carbs should be selected based on your complete combination. Our 12-second street/strip machines have responded well to Holley double-pumpers. Optimum tuning has been with No. 37 squirters on the 360's 750 carb and No. 40 squirters in the 440's 850 unit.
On The Dragstrip
Before going any further, we'll tell you right now that our fuel-delivery problems affected our initial test. The 5/16-inch line, mechanical pump, and hot summer humidity led to fuel-starvation problems at the top of every pass. As a result, our times were off, but the baseline 750 we normally use gave us a 12.84 best. Holley sent us three others: an 870-cfm Street Avenger and a pair of HP-series carbs in the 750-cfm and 950-cfm versions, but the baseline carb was the best. We gave up and returned to the shop to finish our fuel-system upgrades.
We returned a couple of weeks later with our new 3/8-inch line and electric pump in place. We baselined the Dodge using the aforementioned 750 double-pumper that's been tuned to the engine. It was again typical New Jersey summer weather: high humidity with temperatures in the mid-80s (and a heat index in the 90s). In addition to the carbs, we were also planning on hot-lapping a series of Wilson manifold spacers. These high-quality pieces are basically standard issue on every Winston Cup engine. The spacerless, dialed-in 750 baseline carb gave us a quick, easy best of 12.89 at 103.83. We installed longer studs and trimmed the carb cable hold-down bracket with a hand file before installing Wilson's one-inch open spacer. Why open? Because this actually opens up the intake plenum area for more equal fuel distribution. Back on the E-Town tarmac, the Challenger tripped the lights fantastic with a great 12.77 and 104.65, better than a tenth faster with just this one change. Throttle response and 60-foot times were also noticeably better as well. This thing worked!
Throwing caution to the wind, we decided to give the mild 360 every bit of fuel we could, and the big Holley 950hp went onto the open spacer next. Unfortunately, it proved to be a little more than the engine could take, and the box-stock 950 pot gave us a 12.87 at 104.21, the response and mph telling us we were flat at the bottom end. Hmmm, maybe the carb could use a better signal to the venturi, even if we didn't have all the parts to fully tune it.
Back in the pits, we swapped the Wilson open spacer for an almost-identical four-hole unit with tapered openings. Created to improve the bottom-end response of open-plenum/single-plane intakes, this one could help get the big carb to respond to the engine's intake signal, even on the Edelbrock dual-plane. It felt crisper on the burnout, and at the quarter-mile timers we had our answer: 12.78 at 104.35. Despite not having a full cool-down period and the nasty midday air, we got our 1/10 back with a mere spacer swap.
Test five would be with that 950 again, only this time with a Wilson untapered four-hole unit. This would really give a stronger signal to the venturi and improve flow velocity out of the carb, and this is what our 360 liked most. Driveability felt strong, and we clicked off a 12.77 with a 1.79 60-foot time, which would be our best for the day.
In our previous test before the new fuel line went in, the 870 Street Avenger clocked a 13.10 best, and we decided we would skip over it on this day due to the time constraints. Our combination (medium weight, high-stall converter, and 3.55 gears) makes good use of the mechanical-secondary design by not bogging and allowing the engine to rev up quicker. Though a lighter secondary spring in the vacuum-assisted 870 on that first day gave us a couple of hundredths in elapsed time, we decided to get our last couple of laps in using the 750 hp.
The No. 8528 750 hp is Holley's replacement for our old 750 No. 4150 double-pumper, with added tuneability. It was getting late in the day, and we didn't have a chance to cool down the engine as much as we would have liked to. The 750 went on the four-hole Wilson spacer and responded with a very credible 12.83 at 103.85, only 6/100s off of the best with the 200-cfm larger unit. With time for just one more run, we tried it with the Wilson open-spacer, which had been good with our baseline carb. The open-spacer didn't seem to give us the seat-of-the-pants response as the four-hole, and the car slowed to a 12.91 at a slightly faster 103.77 on that lap. Remember, we did the final two runs without the benefit of a full cool-down effort and in the hottest part of the afternoon.
All said, the testing of the Holley carburetors and Wilson spacers on the 360 at the track was a big success. Since we plan to test this same brace of carbs on the 440 Coronet R/T in the near future, we left them unmodified from box stock. The fact that the engine defied what's considered common logic by working the best with the four-hole Wilson one-inch spacer and the giant-for-this-application 950hp was surprising to all of us. In the end, progressive tuning on this carb/spacer combination could indeed result in even better times, which is a tribute to Holley's re-engineering of the 950 style. The 750 hp would have been the logical choice for this displacement and remains so in many street applications. However, the numbers generated by the 950 showed us that the bigger carb made a difference, even in our mild 360. Again, venturi signal and flow velocity are critical with carbs this large; in all cases, factors like camshaft specs and intake/port runner design will make the difference between pass and fail if air velocity isn't strong enough to atomize the fuel; big stall speeds/launch rpm are a must here. Still, in conclusion, we gained a lot of knowledge in this real-world drag test.

Looking good! Here is the tank installed; we sandblasted the straps and painted them Chassis Black. We left the EEC (Evaporative Emissions Control) intact in case we ever went back to stock. With the old fuel line removed, we also gave the frame areas normally hidden by the lines the Corroless/Chassis Black epoxy treatment.Leave it to Eastwood to have the materials we need to do the job right. After we scrapped and wire-brushed the underside of the truck pan, we sprayed on their PRE-Paint Prep for proper surface prep. Next, we added a layer of Eastwood's Corroless Rust Stabilizer to prevent future problems, then hit the area with Chassis Black to finish it. The latter two paints combine to form an epoxy bond against rust, chips, salt, and other road hazards. We repeated the process on the top of the pan. Then, to prep the tank before installation, we sprayed it with PRE-Paint Prep as well and finished the job with Eastwood's Tank Tone, which has a nice hue and contains zinc for rust prevention.Before getting down to our second day of testing, we upgraded the rest of the fuel system as well. Shown here is a roll of 3/8-inch line, a Holley Red electric pump, an inline filter, the dual-inlet carburetor line, and a pair of good air cleaners. Replacing the fuel line can be a bear; the old line needs to be examined and the new 3/8-inch line carefully bent with a tubing bender to match. Take your time here, because one bad kink can ruin your whole day.If you want to do it the easy way, you can order a complete 3/8-inch prebent line from The Paddock (shown, right) like we did. Install the line using the OE loops in the body. Mount the filter between the pump and the pickup to keep contamination to a minimum, and check the filter periodically, especially if you're using a variety of pump gasolines.Fuel System Follies
We found that our stock fuel system was going to need some work if we wanted to get honest results. The gas tank was basically junk (it had an inch of rust and slag at the bottom) and we wanted to upgrade the fuel lines and fuel pump for performance. Here's a brief overview.Here's our selection of Wilson spacers. Three varieties: open (for increased plenum volume and power in the midrange), tapered four-hole (for better air/fuel distribution to each intake runner-best in single plane applications), and untapered four-hole (for low-end response and increased throttle response by increasing venturi signal). Wilson spacers are CNC-machined from billet aluminum. When hood clearance isn't an issue, 1.25-, 1.5-, 1.75-, and 2-inch varieties are available as well.Meanwhile, the carbs would be baselined against our dialed-in 750. Here's the new 870 Street Avenger, which we used in our first test. The Street Avenger offers a lifetime warranty on parts and a one-year warranty on labor. Equipped with an electric choke for street use, it also has a unique quick-change secondary spring feature and comes complete with three different springs, air cleaner stud, fuel line kit, gaskets, and instructions. In our initial tests, simply swapping to the lighter spring was enough to improve the e.t. by a few hundredths. In our opinion, this carb would be ideal on a big-block door car with highway gearing.Here are the two carbs we tested in our final session. The HP series features streamlined venturies for better air velocity, screw-in air bleeds for added tuning possibilities, and notched floats for jet extensions to help prevent fuel starvation. From the top, the 750hp and 950hp look almost identical, but turn them over and you will see the difference in throttle-blade size; the 950hp (left) blades are closer together and drilled to improve idle quality on engines with radical cams. The more streetable 750hp features ported PCV and vacuum advance outlets. Both have Holley's new four-corner idle control layout.One final note on our test engine. The small-block Edelbrock Performer RPM intake has proven to be a true winner on the LA engine. Unlike the big-block version, this dual-plane intake uses a full plenum divider to the carb base. An interesting question is whether cutting the divider down by 1/2-inch or so would give some of the added performance the open spacer offered. This picture shows the layout for our baseline, a 1/8-inch steel spacer and two gaskets.

GAITHERSBURG, Md. (WUSA) -- This prom and graduation season, 9 Wants You To Know about yet another way teenagers are sneaking alcohol into their celebrations. They're pooling their money and paying cash to rent local hotel rooms.
The server returns and asks for another ID. By then, it's too late.
She responds, "I went to make sure that the ID was okay."
The manager says, "She checked the ID though."
The manager and his server are defensive.
It's not what we caught on video, but the server says, "Yeah, I told her I couldn't serve her, but I wasn't sure. So I came back."
Officer Morrison tells her, "All you had to do was take the wine. You can't give them the wine and leave it here."
The manager jumps in to say, "She was only gone five minutes."
Again, both the server and the hotel are cited.
The manager throws up his hands in disgust and says, "Okay, fine, write us up."
This is the Hilton's third violation in the last four years-which means a mandatory hearing before the liquor control board, where their license could be suspended.
"These kids rent the rooms, and have all their friends in, and they party," says Sgt. Mark White of the Montgomery County Police Department.
Police say parents seem to have no clue their kids are pooling their cash for a $100 hotel room.
Says Sgt. White, "There can be anywhere from 5 to 10 kids, to 15 to 20 kids. Or larger."
Our final stop of the night: the Holiday Inn Gaithersburg, Room 612.
"Hello. I would like to order a bottle of Copper Ridge Merlot," says the 19 year-old volunteer.
This server asks for id and refuses to deliver the wine when she realizes the girls are underage.
Officer Morrison says, "So that's exactly what we want! So very good job. Thank you very much for carding them and not serving them alcohol."
She earns high praise from police. Afterwards we learn the same server was cited in the past for serving to minors. She clearly learned her lesson.
9 News Now asked the hotels that were not in compliance for interviews and each issued us a statement.
Tom Gilliland with the Gaithersburg Marriott Washingtonian Center writes, "The hotel takes its obligation to comply with liquor laws very seriously and we will be reemphasizing and retraining our associates on the responsible service of alcohol."
And we received this from Chris Daly with the Hilton Washington DC North, "We are aware an alleged violation has occurred and currently are investigating it further. We take all such matters seriously and are reviewing our procedures and policies with all associates."
With three violations now, the Hilton faces a liquor board hearing. That's expected to happen in June.

Have used it several times and I found that it was very bright and gave good visibility, it wasnt heavy and it also was quickly rechargeable, about 5-6 hours. For myself, a recreational diver, it is an excellent choice. Since I have only done about 6 dives with it I cant comment on the long term dependability. I do wish it came with a better way to attach it to my BCD, although I was easily able to modify it. Higher than average cost but I would recommend it. Bill Kerner, Tulsa

Ive used this console on several dives. The console is not too bulky and it is easy to read, both day and night. The price makes this item a good buy and the quality makes this a good purchase. Advanced divers may desire something else but for the majority of divers it will work well. Bill Kerner, Tulsa OK

The sign beside the highway reads "Detroit: City Limits." Well, it's supposed to, but the graffiti makes it hard to see. Dilapidated houses and boarded strip malls pass the bus window. It's spring break, and Marissa Sylvester '15, biology major, traded sandy beaches for service.
"I could have gone home and relaxed," says Sylvester. "But I wanted to do something significant and useful. Helping others means much more to me than sleeping late."

New PCI DSS Standard Due Out
Gordon Burnes 270004HVEW firstname.lastname@example.com | | 0 Comments | 172 Visits
SearchSecurity has coverage from RSA about a new version of the PCI Data Security Standard, due out sometime in Q3 of this year. It appears they're taking a pragmatic approach, and indications are that it will be an evolution based on user feedback rather than a drastic, revolutionary change. PCI has been a sensitive topic, and the general consensus from practitioners is that it doesn't really help prevent data breaches in and of itself. What it DOES do, however, is provide a stick to use to get your organization to fund information security and IT risk management gaps.

|Krogmeier carving niche as a woodworker
|Written by Kyle Arnoldy
Despite the fact that his work can be seen around town in local banks, churches, doctor's offices, homes and every year at the preschool auction, Bill Krogmeier is insistent that the wooden projects he produces is just for hobby.
Currently Krogmeier is working on a wagon and pair of Clydesdale horses. While most projects take him between two weeks and a month, the horses took all winter. Krogmeier says much more handwork went into the horses than with most pieces as he has put more than 150 hours of work into the project.
While there is an obvious appreciation for his work, Krogmeier said he ends up giving away most of the pieces he creates. The few times a year he says his services are requested, he generally just charges for the supplies.
When pressed to put a price on his most recent project of the horses and wagon, Krogmeier estimated that elsewhere a potential buyer would need at least $1,200. Even at that price tag, the guess likely falls short of the actual price the pieces would be sold for as that would be less than $10 an hour for the work already put into the project, not even considering the time that will be spent on the wagon.
With four children, eight grandkids and too many nieces and nephews to count, Krogmeier has had plenty of practice at honing his skills on pieces for children of the family. The crafts also serve as a way for him to leave his mark with the family.
"They are always appreciative of it," Krogmeier said. "I try to make stuff that is heirloom quality because I figure it will be around long after I am gone."
He has completed close to 30 baby cradles for family and friends to date.
Bill Krogmeier shows off his recently-finished pair of Clydesdale horses he spent the winter working on. —Enterprise photoz
"I like to make children's furniture," Krogmeier said. "If I find a little kid that I like, then I might make something for him."
His interest in woodworking started when he was in high school working for a cabinet maker out of Amherst. While he enjoyed the craft, he had to put it on hold for 40 years to farm. Once he retired in 1990, he immediately returned to the hobby.
Krogmeier spends an average of six hours a day in his shop. With a cabinet full of potential plans and a shop full of wood, he is already mapping out projects for the future. In fact, Krogmeier said the most difficult aspect creating these pieces is deciding which plans to do next.
The challenges of the work is one of the many reasons he enjoys the hobby, and says he is willing to tackle any project. If he ever is displeased with a completed piece, he will start over.
"I am pretty satisfied with most everything I turn out, and if I'm not, I'll do it over. That's how I heat the shop, with my mistakes," said Krogmeier with a smile as he pointed toward the wood-burning fireplace. "I've probably got as much hardwood in here as most of the lumber yards in northeast Colorado."
With a photo album full of pictures of the pieces he has completed over the years, it is apparent that he takes great pride in his work. While flipping through the pages, he is taken back to some of his favorite and most treasured accomplishments.
One of the pieces that stands out to him is an antique dresser he was able to rescue for his daughter-in-law. It had been in a flood and was in nine separate pieces by the time Krogmeier was able to get his hands on it.
He was able to restore it and said it has remained one of his favorites because of how nice it turned out. One of the biggest challenges he faces when doing jobs like this is matching the color of stain when adding wood to existing pieces.
Over the years he has developed a signature style that he incorporates into most of his pieces. Carving out hearts into his pieces has become his trademark.
With a passion that has lasted for decades, Krogmeier has no plans to slow down as he creates treasured cradles, dining sets, clocks, Christmas decorations and many other pieces that can be appreciated for years.

the worst part is i have plenty of time to do the things i have, i just put them off til the last minute. i guess with good grades i shouldn't complain though, by now it should be my firm believe that i produce my best work in the middle of the night while stressed.
i havent really been procrastinating as much. i think its due to the fact that i can go to quiet, secluded places to study, like the library or the engineering hall, whenever i want (including late in the night) instead of being stuck at home/my dorm.

An Integro-Partial Differential Equation
Application ID: 700
The heat distribution in a hollow pipe, whose ends are held at two different temperatures, is studied. The outside surface is assumed to be thermally isolated and the inner surfaces have radiation boundary conditions. The role of convection in the heat transfer is taken to be negligible.
The temperature is assumed to be constant along the thickness of the pipe and rotational symmetry is also assumed, allowing the pipe to be modeled in 1D. A comparison is made with a purely conductive model in order to visualize the effect of the heat radiation.
A 3D model is also shown as a comparison.
This model comes courtesy of Daniel Smith and Ali Shajii of MKS Instruments, Wilmington, Massachusetts, USA.

We're also gradually migrating our Cyrus IMAP users over to Zimbra, a few of which use Blackberries. Is it possible to have BES talk to more than one backend server, in this case an Exchange environment as well as Zimbra, or would we need to run a separate BES server for Zimbra? (As you can tell, I'm not very familiar with BES.)


text: My dad and I will be going to Montana this September for my first western hunt. We are going to a friends land east of Townsend, MT in unit 391. I've been doing some research and it seems to be pretty good country. Has anyone hunted in the area in the past and if so, how was it? I also applied for the 380 limited draw so fingers crossed on that long shot.
