Video: Proposed pay raise raises public ire
ATLANTA -- A proposal to give Atlanta's Mayor and City Council significant raises is drawing fire from taxpayers and city employees who haven't received a raise in a decade.
"Stop the madness," said city employee Gina Pagnotta-Murphy. "It's not professional and it's just overall mean spirited."
MORE | City of Atlanta salary recommendations
A citizens group, appointed by Atlanta's Mayor, members of city council, and the Atlanta School board, has recommended a 25% pay raise for the Mayor and a 52% increase for members of city council.
Council members currently make $39,473 for their part time council job. The recommendation of the Elected Officials Compensation Commission is to increase that pay to $60,300 a year.
Atlanta's Mayor currently makes $147,500 a year. The commission recommends increasing the pay for the Mayor's office to $184,300.
A spokesperson says Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed will not accept a pay raise.
"Mayor Reed has made it clear he's not taking a raise as long as he's Mayor," said spokesperson Sonji Jacobs.
In just a half-hour, 11Alive received over 200 Facebook comments when asked if the raises are justified.
"No," said one viewer. "Not fair."
"In this economy, how can you justify this?"
Pagnotta-Murphy, head of Atlanta's Professional Association of City Employees, addressed members of council at Wednesday's finance committee meeting.
"All the council knows is 50% more money," said Pagnotta-Murphy. "We can't get 1% a year. It's madness."
Councilwoman Felicia Moore, who chairs the finance committee, said she hadn't thoroughly studied the commission's report, but as of now supports some kind of raise for council members.
"Based on what I've seen, it is reasonable to be comparable with elected officials in other cities, so I would be supportive of this," said Moore.
11Alive presented Moore with the viewer comments and asked her to read them before voting on anything.
"I think taxpayers never support any increase for elected officials," said Moore. "I think they would have some heartburn with it."
Members of the commission hired an independent company that compared the salaries of Atlanta's elected officials to pay in other cities. Those cities included Dallas, Denver, Portland, Seattle, and Washignton D.C.
"Atlanta's city council was the third lowest paid," said commission member Wendy Green. "The Mayor was the third lowest paid of Mayors we identified."
The city's charter requires a pay study for elected officials every four years.
"This is my personal opinion, but I think the city council is grossly underpaid," said commission member Jamel DeCosta.
The proposal will be advertised for three weeks. During that time the public will be allowed review the report and comment on it. Sometime after that, the city's finance committee will vote on whether or not the pay recommendations should move forward.
The entire city council would have to approve the pay increases.

Have questions about this product?
Great bag, but doesn't fit all 17"
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
So the description says it fits a 17" laptop, but the tag on the bag says 17" MacBook.
MacBooks are some of the smallest 17" laptops, no doubt. I tried to get my Dell Precision M6300 in, but it was just too thick. The width was almost maxed out too.
Hope this helps anyone.
I was stoked to get this as it is a nice bag. Too bad I have a giant laptop...
Off to the shipping store.
Thanks Mofoco for the review. My Dell 17" Studio when compared to your model is about the same size so you saved me the hassle. Thank you and have a good day.
Great bag
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Very impressed with the design an quality of this bag. The pockets and laptop sleeve are located very well and the fabric is tough. It's just the right size for work or an overnight trip.

WEST SPRINGFIELD, Va. (WUSA) - A Catholic priest is charged with the February 2, 2012 sexual battery of an adult male, according to police.
The victim reported the incident on Nov. 30. He said that he was sexually assaulted at Saint Bernadette Parish at 7600 Old Keene Mill Road. At the time the victim was seeking support and guidance from the suspect when the suspect allegedly touched him inappropriately.
Franco Henao turned himself over to police detectives on Dec. 19 when he was processed and released.
The Catholic Diocese of Arlington released a statement:
This afternoon, Rev. Luis Fernando Franco Henao, a priest of the Diocese of Málaga-Soatá in Colombia, presented himself for arrest to the Fairfax County Police Department and was charged with misdemeanor sexual battery of an adult male. The incident in question is alleged to have occurred at Saint Bernadette Church in Springfield in February of this year. Upon learning of the charge, the Diocese of Arlington withdrew Rev. Franco's faculties in the diocese and removed him from ministry.
The Diocese of Arlington is committed to full cooperation with law enforcement regarding this allegation, and we encourage anyone with knowledge of this case to contact the Fairfax County Police Department.
Anyone with information about this case is asked to contact Crime Solvers by phone at 1-866-411-TIPS/8477 or call Fairfax County Police at 703-691-2131.

May 31, 2016
The state of the police department and public safety in Meridian was a major topic on Tuesday as a former mayoral candidate announced his plans to run again.
At a ceremony on the steps of Meridian City Hall, Percy Bland announced he is running for mayor again. Bland lost to Mayor Cheri Barry in the general election four years ago by about 300 votes. He says his top priority as he begins his campaign is to show people that he is ready to deal with the crime problem in the city.
"The most attention right now is on the safety in our community," Bland said. "People are scared to go to Walmart. People are scared to go out right now, so we need to do a good job at getting our police department under control and providing the leadership from the mayor's office to get those things done."
Mayor Barry and former Lauderdale County Election Commissioner Rod Amos are running against Bland.

Today (October 9th) marks what would have been John Lennon's 73rd birthday. By nightfall tonight, hundreds of fans will have made the pilgrimage to Central Park's Strawberry Fields in New York City for a day of remembrance, sing-alongs, and celebrations dedicated to the memory of Lennon. Strawberry Fields, a triangular patch of land dedicated to Lennon by the city of New York and named after the Beatles' 1967 hit, sits directly across the street from the Dakota, Lennon's Manhattan apartment building, where he was gunned down on December 8th, 1980 at the age 40. Today is also Lennon and Yoko Ono's son Sean Lennon's 38th birthday.
Fans were shocked earlier this week when Lennon's star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame was defaced by vandals. Volunteer fan crews have been working overtime to get the star ready for today's celebrations. The star, which is adjacent to the Beatle's record label headquarters in Los Angeles, is the primary spot for fans to gather both on Lennon's birthday and the day of his death.
Last month we reported that Lennon's only full-rehearsed concert from 1972 is getting a drastic overhaul. Producer Jack Douglas, best known for his work with Aerosmith, Cheap Trick, and Lennon's final 1980 songs on Double Fantasy and Milk And Honey, revealed to us in an exclusive interview that plans are in the early stages to restore the show for an upcoming release. On August 30th, 1972, Lennon and Yoko Ono were backed by Elephants Memory for two full concerts at New York's Madison Square Garden. The performances, known as the One To One concerts, included an afternoon matinee and an evening performance, benefited the Willowbrook House, with the proceeds from the shows going to help establish new accommodations for the mentally handicapped inhabitants of the former Willowbrook institution in Long Island, New York.
Douglas, who was behind the boards for the 2010 Double Fantasy Stripped Down collection, says that unlike the 1986 LP and VHS versions of the '72 show -- called, Live In New York City -- he plans to include material from both the afternoon and evening charity concerts. No release date has been set.
Lennon's full birth name was John Winston Lennon. In April 1969, he legally changed his middle name to "Ono."
Although Lennon is often said to be an only child, he in fact has five half-siblings. Julia and Jacqui Dykins are on his mother Julia's side, as well as another sister, Victoria, who was adopted at birth.
In the mid '70s, Lennon's father Freddie fathered two sons, named David and Robin Lennon.
Lennon's mother Julia taught John his first song on the guitar, Fats Domino's "Ain't That A Shame."
Lennon and Paul McCartney made a handshake deal in late 1957, agreeing that all compositions written by either one of them -- solo or in collaboration with each other -- would be credited to "Lennon-McCartney."
The Beatles performed Lennon's first original composition, titled "Hello Little Girl," at their unsuccessful Decca Records audition on January 1st, 1962.
After the Beatles' breakup, both Lennon and McCartney gave separate interviews detailing who wrote what within the duo's partnership. They two agreed on everything except two songs -- Lennon claimed that he wrote the majority of the lyrics to McCartney's "Eleanor Rigby" and McCartney claimed that he wrote the melody to Lennon's "In My Life."
Although uncredited, Lennon helped write the lyrics to George Harrison's song "Taxman" from the Beatles' Revolver album and "Piggies" from "The White Album."
Lennon's lucky number was nine. The number popped up in several of his songs, including "One After 909," "Revolution #9," and "#9 Dream."
Although primarily a rhythm guitarist, Lennon played bass on several McCartney-written Beatles classics, including "Back In The U.S.S.R.," "Helter Skelter," "Let It Be," and "The Long And Winding Road."
Lennon played keyboards on "I'm Down," "Tell Me What You See," "The Night Before," "We Can Work It Out," "Penny Lane," "The Being For the Benefit Of Mr. Kite," "All You Need Is Love," "Hello Goodbye," "I Am The Walrus," "Hey Bulldog," "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da," "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," "Because," and others.
Lennon also played lead guitar on a number of Beatles tracks too, including "Get Back," "You Can't Do That," "Honey Pie," "Yer Blues," "For You Blue," "The Ballad Of John And Yoko," and "I Want You (She's So Heavy)."
Lennon published two books of short stories and prose during the height of Beatlemania -- 1964's In His Own Write and 1965's A Spaniard In The Works. In 1986 a novel written in the late-'70s, titled Skywriting By Word Of Mouth, was published posthumously.
Prior to returning to Yoko after their infamous 14-month separation in the early 1970s, Lennon was planning to travel to New Orleans to record with McCartney, who was then working on Wings' Venus And Mars album.
Lennon and McCartney last saw each other on April 24th, 1976, when they watched Saturday Night Live as producer Lorne Michaels offered the Beatles a whopping $3,000 to reunite on the show. They briefly considered heading to Rockefeller Center where the show was being performed, as a gag. The two last spoke on the phone in early 1980.
Before deciding to take a five-year sabbatical from recording, Lennon was composing material for a 1976 album, tentatively titled Between The Lines.
In the years prior to his death in New York, Lennon usually woke up around dawn each day, and by mid-morning would walk over to the since-closed upscale neighborhood coffee house Cafe LaFortuna and read The New York Times, The London Times, and several other international newspapers to get a global view of daily current events.
Lennon was also known to occasionally go out for drinks at his local watering hole, Malachy's Donegal Inn, only a block away from the Dakota.
At the time of his death, John and Yoko were rumored to be planning a world tour, to tentatively start in the spring of 1981 with a free show in New York's Central Park, and eventually culminating with a concert in the Beatles' hometown of Liverpool.
In the weeks prior to his death, Lennon was working on two new songs, called "You Saved My Soul (With Your True Love)" and "Dear John." An edited version of "Dear John" appears on the 1998 John Lennon Anthology.

My belief is that KG is too loyal and will not pull a RA and chase a ring that would make him look like a hypocrite. Remember KG stayed in Minn when they weren't winning.
All these NBAers that are saying Ainge will trade KG must not know KG has a no trade clause. KG will help mentor the young guys and retire after the season.
Just my opinion

I just installed Zimbra yesterday, and it looks pretty good. I really like the search feature. I am currently running a Courier mail server with an OpenLDAP backend and squirrelmail, and I'm just looking at what else is out there.
I have a few questions though..
Do the Zimbra users live in LDAP?
I can only see the admin user zimbra.
How can I use the Purchase Order Identifier?
In cn=po,cn=object,cn=config,cn=zimbra, I can see it, do I just have to match it against a regular expression?
I'd like to set up a filter so that Zimbra will authenticate against an external LDAP server, but I'm not sure where to start.
I am using the 3.0.0_M2_746 FC4 release.

text: Opening day of rifle had me sitting in my ground blind that I put together in July. As it began to get light enough to see, there were 2 stumps in a meadow 517 yards away that I hadn't seen in the past years. As I tried to make them out through my glasses it was just nothing more than stumps. Until finally one of them lifted her head. Heart rate instantly shot through the roof as I had a cow tag as well as my general tag... I slipped of the back of the hill I was on, took off my boots and knew it would be well into shooting light by the time I closed the distance. Constantly glassing to assure they were still there and hitting them with my range finder to find a comfortable distance. Finally it came together and the 2 cows knew something was up. 332 yards it was going to be. Had to calm myself down and slowly squeeze the trigger. Through the recoil I heard the thump and knew I was good, to my surprise, out of the timber came another 15 or so cows, gathering around the downed cow. And last I saw, with just my eyes, much larger body, lighter color, I knew instantly it was a bull. Racked another shell, confirmed in my scope, pulled the trigger and with 2 shots had 2 elk laying 60 yards apart. A little lady luck I will take:) Gathered my partners and a chain saw winch, 8 hours later 2 elk back at camp whole. It was a good day followed by another when my buddy dropped another bull. Whole trip, 4 guys, 2 bulls, 2 cows and a muley buck. All public ground.

Starters in bold:
PG - Rondo, Pressey <starts the season at PG until Rondo gets back
SG - Bradley, Lee, Brooks, Crawford
SF - Green, Wallace, Bogans
PF - Olynyk, Bass
C - Sullinger, Faverani, Humphries
Assuming Rondo isn't ready to start the season than Bradley could get the nod, though if everything goes great Pressey will impress in camp and take the starting PG job until Rondo gets back. Also I have high hopes for Faverani taking the center position and rolling with it as well as Brooks maturing enough to take over the shooting guard position, I readily admit that this paragraph is wild eye'd, pie in the sky thinking and I'm projecting upward but I have a lot of faith in Danny Ainge's ability to spot talent.
Assuming this ^ fantasy scenario happens and everything goes right, the starting five of the future would be: Rondo, Brooks, Green, Olynyk and Vitor. People will ask what about Sully, I have deep concerns about his back being able to handle a starting load over the course of a season and he could be very effective as a 6th man. There is also the distinct possibility that once Rondo returns and proves he is healthy and Pressey has already shown he can start Rondo will be a trading chip. In that case swap out Rondo for Pressey above...

Due to the threat of inclement weather, Arkansas baseball's series opener with ...
Shannon and Josh Newton - along with their biological children, 6-year-old Nash and 4-year-old Nyla - made up the picture perfect family of four.
But things changed about a year ago, when Shannon saw a news story about foreign adoptions. Her curiosity peaked as she wondered if there was a need in Arkansas. Her computer research took her straight to Arkansas' DHS Heart Gallery.
"As I scrolled through the images of the thumbnails and paragraphs about their favorite colors and what they like to eat and what they wanna be when they grow up, I completely lost it," Shannon remembered.
She began a conversation with her husband and after months of discussion, they decided to begin the adoption process. They wanted a boy aged 9-13.
"We hypothetically selected six boys we would begin praying for and perhaps would lead to them joining our family and David was one of those 6 boys."
David was a 16-year-old who THV11 featured in August during our "A Place to Call Home" series. Back then, David said he desperately wanted a family, but at his age, he wasn't sure it would ever happen.
Meantime, at the Newton household, the process to adopt was well underway. The family had met David at non-profit adoption gatherings. They'd seen THV11's story. But David didn't know they were interested in him.
"He was a little older than what we thought we wanted or would be a good fit," the Newtons admitted. "But after meeting him, we were convinced it would be a good fit even though he was 16."
"All of the things - the good spirit, good attitude, the want to, the willingness and all of those attributes we thought we could work with - he had," they said.
In November, the family was approved to adopt. And on a rainy afternoon, David was pulled from school, told only that DHS needed to meet with him - and that it would be a day he'd never forget.
"I saw this book that had my picture on it," David said. "I thought - what is that? Had it in their bag, eyes kept going back to it and they said there's a family that wants to adopt you - really? Gave me the book- hey I know these people! I met these people, yeah!"
The next weekend, the family took David to a Razorback football game at War Memorial stadium; the Newton's younger children loved their new big brother.
"They were super excited. David can do cannonballs, David can push 'em on the swingset, David can play Mario Kart," they said. "He's wonderful with [the] children. I cannot overstate that he was meant to be their big brother. It's been completely emotionally amazing."
At the Newtons, David has his own room for the first time, but he still remembers his past. He hadn't had a family in 10 years and lived in a group home for six years.
"I was really happy, really excited to leave but on the other hand, I had been there for so long, it was a second home to me," David said. "I was used to the unknown but this is one of the best changes in my life ever."
He now treasures the book his adoptive family made for him - In one of the photos they snipped their family photo in half and placed David right in the center.
"This is a loving family," he says. "I really love them"
And as for the Newtons, "It feels like that's the way it's supposed to be. We are Newton family of 5 now."

Bronx, NY (Sports Network) - Alfonso Soriano has officially returned to the
franchise with which he began his major league career.
The New York Yankees acquired the 37-year-old outfielder from the Chicago Cubs
on Friday in exchange for Corey Black, a minor league pitcher.
Years removed from his prime, Soriano has proven he can still hit the long
ball. He clubbed 17 homers and drove in 51 runs while batting .254 over 93
games with the Cubs this season.
The seven-time All-Star reached the majors in 1999 and spent the first five
years of his career with the Yankees before being dealt to the Texas Rangers
for Alex Rodriguez. After two years with the Rangers, he was shipped to the
Washington Nationals before signing a massive free-agent deal with the Cubs in
Nov. 2006.
During his career, the .272 lifetime hitter has amassed 389 home runs and
Black, 21, has made 19 starts with Single-A Tampa this year, going 3-8 with a
4.25 ERA. The right-hander was selected by the Yankees in the fourth round of
the 2012 draft.

Climate Change: Marketplace is the First Responder
For a few years, matters involving climate change have been nestled behind a darkening economy. Now, though, the subject is re-emerging, hastened by Hurricane Sandy and who will pay for the associated liabilities.
Uncommon weather events are occurring with increasing frequency and are causing an enormous human toll and economic hardship. The marketplace has become the first-responders here, sidestepping a congressional stalemate. As such, insurers are pricing climate change risks into their policies while businesses are taking either mandatory or voluntary steps to cut their emissions. The result is now the platform from which to tackle the challenges posed by the earth's warming.
Addressing the phenomenon is similar to how Americans eventually coped with the domestic tobacco industry, says Randy Evans, co-author of a book called "Climate Change and Insurance." That is, for decades cigarette makers warded off litigation and warning labels, which eventually gave way to a U.S. surgeon general report that pronounced smoking "a" cause of cancer. The courts then relaxed the causation standard, enabling some successful lawsuits to change how that sector now does business.
Evans, a Republican who served as outside counsel to the U.S. Speakers of the House during the 104th through 109th Congresses, says that he does not believe that the global environment is at a "tipping point." But he does say that it is at a "median point" whereby all political and business leaders must manage the apparent risks. An obvious sticking point is whether man-made emissions from fossil-fired power plants are adding to the level of heat-trapping emissions.
"Man-made emissions are 'one' cause," says Evans, also a lawyer with McKenna Long & Aldridge in Washington, DC and Georgia. "Maybe it is a significant cause but it does not have to be 'the' cause -- if you follow the tobacco analogy. If it only has to be 'a' cause, there should be some accountability: Why shouldn't those who profit the most share their profits with those who suffer the most?"
Evans, who spoke to this reporter by telephone, says that the trend toward collective action is similar to a "beehive" whereby a swarm of activity exists that it is generally headed one way. Independently, a steady and unyielding movement is pushing for action on climate change. And it's coming from shareholders, insurers and ordinary citizens, he says.
Major Movers
Unlike the prolonged tobacco fights, Evans says that the battle to reduce global warming emissions will be shorter. With the ubiquitous nature of the internet and cable that allow for the immediate flow of information, the time frame will get compressed down to "a decade."
The clock has been ticking. Shareholder activism, for example, is forcing companies to adopt more environmentally-friendly policies: Evans notes that those demands have increased four-fold over the last four years. To boot: The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission says that corporate boards are obliged to report climate risks so that they can be fully evaluated by investors.
According to a report by Ceres, which is a group of investors interested in sustainability, 96 of the combined 173 companies in the Fortune 100 and Global 100 have set immediate greenhouse gas reduction targets. Only a third of them, however, have longer-range plans.
Insurers, meantime, are now pricing those risks into their policies. Evans says that Munich Re and Swiss Re are among the major providers that actuarially measure climate hazards. Consider: In 2011, 14 major weather events occurred costing at least $1 billion each, says the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration. Sandy alone is expected to run $20 billion. Droughts, earthquakes, floods, tornadoes, thunderstorms and wildfires are active and having widespread effects.
"Whether stakeholders succeed in achieving mega-tort recoveries remains to be seen, but in any case, insurers risk spending substantial sums on their legal defense and should seriously consider mitigating climate change exposure," says Walter Stahel, head of risk management research for the Geneva Association.
Dealing with global warming will be expensive. But the proposition posited by author Evans is that the price tag will be more affordable if it is paid up front.
To that end, insurers are a major mover. So are those shareholders interested in sustainability. But they are following the gyrations in weather patterns as well as the scientific community's cues, which have also enabled EPA greenhouse gas regulations -- laws that have been upheld by the federal courts. As a result, the various moving parts are aligning and trying to dull the impact of climate change.

Just got back from LBI, southern NJ
Long Beach Island is an 18-mile long barrier island, off the coast of southern NJ. For centuries, the geography of the island has been altered by hurricanes, Nor'easters, and tides. Beach replenishment is an ongoing task; beaches are not private property, they are there for full-time residents, vacation home owners, tourists who want to rent a place during the summer, and day trippers.
My mother lives year-round in a small house in Harvey Cedars, at an extremely narrow part of the island. During Sandy, she and her dog stayed with a friend on the island, further north in Barnegat Light. Harvey Cedars is one of several boroughs which participated in the beach replenishment project. There were a few holdouts, homeowners who would not allow the surveyors needed for the project, easement access to take sightings. These beachfront homeowners filed lawsuits against their various towns and boroughs (including Harvey Cedars) over the replenishment project.
Why? According to them, the project would "spoil their view," and lower their property value. Some also had the crazy idea that "boardwalks would be next," and they certainly couldn't have their view of a public beach spoiled by the riff-raff.
Well, some boroughs caved in to the lawsuit threats and did not participate in the replenishment project. Harvey Cedars has been ordered to compensate these homeowners for loss of view (there was no loss of view), and lowered property value. Harvey Cedars has appealed the decision.
After driving the length of the island, it was obvious that the areas which had the beach replenished were spared. Including my mom's house, where the island is only two blocks wide! Her house and yard were untouched, other than having to sweep up a few pine needles. North Beach, just south of Harvey Cedars? Destroyed. Further south, Holgate was in terrible shape (but Holgate always gets battered). Beach Haven suffered a lot of damage, as did Loveladies just north of Harvey Cedars.
Unfortunately, the people complaining were not the only ones to suffer damage or loss of their homes. Other residents suffered, due to the few with oceanfront property and their attorneys (and the decision makers who caved). Now people who had houses in the areas where the dunes were breached have neither a house, nor a view.
The people complaining in Harvey Cedars, still have both. Thanks to the project. I think Harvey Cedars's appeal has merit. What say the readers?
Incidentally, I've witnessed many storms over the years, having grown up there. I well remember the storm of March 1962. All barrier islands are at risk, and beaches are replenished constantly, to protect structures and tourism. We do this so that people can continue to enjoy our fantastic beaches for many years to come. Erosion and storms are due to weather, and natural processes. Not human-caused climate change. Experience the fury of one of these storms. Anyone would be humbled by such power. Human beings who believe we can cause or prevent such things are arrogant. All we can do is mitigate the damage, clean up, and rebuild. And buy insurance!

Climate Change: The Marketplace is the First Responder
The HUGE story on global warming is the leaking of portions of the IPCC's draft AR5 report. The leaked information indicates that, even within the IPCC, there is a recognition that there are serious problems with the 'scientific' basis for CAGW (catastrophic anthropogenic global warming) theory. But Energy Central puts out a story on insurance premiums rising due to more frequent and severe storms caused by CAGW (a meme that is easily debunked). Wow! Talk about a lack of perspective.
Disconnects between insurance and climate
I don't perceive that this article treats the range of criteria necessary determine the scientific veracity of manmade climate change. It nonetheless makes sense to avoid CO2 emissions due to the devastating prospect of cumulative ocean acidification destroying vital marine food chains - essentially forever - beginning around mid-century. Yet that development not even on the radar of the insurance industry due to disconnects between its practices and much of geophysical reality. The insurance companies concentrate on matching the premiums of their customers with damage liabilities incurred by natural disasters. Munich Re and others have pursued this policy for over two decades in Europe, where there have been a number of catastrophic events during that period. Yet even when meteorologists appeared on television in 2002 to discount any correlation between disastrous flooding of the Danube, Moldau, and Elbe Rivers with the progress of global warming, pricing the climate risks has remained an accepted way of keeping the insurance industry solvent. No amount of money is going to prevent the Arctic ice cap from melting. There would continue to be hurricanes, floods, and droughts in a world run completely on renewable energy. Since the system of polluter pays would then break down, its validity should be questioned today. CO2 is often emitted with the objective of repaying commercial debts, so it could prove more efficient to circumvent the insurance industry entirely and pay off creditors at the source in exchange for intensified efforts toward the survival of civilization. Insuring seacoast properties is chiefly sustaining the building construction industry in the affected regions following increasingly recurrent storms. That is an extremely expensive and only locally beneficial endeavor compared with divorcing the world from coal power. If society doesn't have the money to do both, which should it choose?
There are 147 surface temperature measurement stations in the world, all in the new US Climate Research Network, which are sufficiently well sited, installed and maintained that the DATA can be used without adjustment. Once the DATA from the rest of the global surface temperature measuring stations have been "adjusted", they are no longer DATA; rather, they are undata, which are then aggregated to become the global temperature record. There are estimates that up to half of the global temperature anomaly exists in the adjustments, rather than in the data. That is atrocious. Measuring temperature with high accuracy and precision is not simple, but it is hardly brain science or rocket surgery.
The climate science "magicians" not only appear to believe that they are the modern day Rumpelstiltskin, able to spin bad data into an accurate global temperature record, they also appear to believe that they can "out-magician" Rumpelstiltskin by turning missing data into a comprehensive global temperature record. I am not sufficiently credulous to accept that.
More Bravo!
Thank you for the hard data. I had read highlights of your point, but it is nice to see the graphs. Sandy will be a bully pulpit, but it is far from proof; e.g. without the high tide, an arctic northeaster, and too much development on vulnerable coast lines, Sandy would have been a routine storm. None of those can be blamed on global warming. DDixon
Some "Minor" Problems
The global average surface temperature has not increased over the past 16 years, despite continued and increasing global annual CO2 emissions; and, continued "hand-wringing" on the part of the climate science community.
There is no SCIENTIFIC linkage between "uncommon weather events" and the non-existent global warming of the past 16 years. Hurricane and tornado frequency and intensity are both well below historical maxima.
The model predictions of warming presented by the IPCC since 1990 show far greater warming than has actually occurred. (See below.) This demonstrates that the models and the hypotheses on which they are based are flawed.
So much for the "settled science" consensus.
Another point. If one looks up the record highest temperatures by state in the US, many were set in the early 1900's--ie 1900 to 1950. It seems strange that we are allegedly recording record high temperatures in so many places but the single point highest recoreded temperatures are not being exceeded.
While I agree there is climate change, the climate has always been changing. While I agree that mankind's CO2 production impacts climate change, I do not think it is the principal cause of climate change. While I agree that we need to take steps to reduce CO2 emissions on a per MWh basis, bankrupting the economies of the OECD countries developing 'green' energy while the developing countries do whatever they want is not the way to do it.

This is one of several graphical representations of test molecules and 3-D electron orbitals. The molecular structures were calculated by a direct self-consistent-field algorithm rewritten to run on a computer's graphical processing unit (GPU). Positive and negative regions of the electron orbitals are colored blue and orange, respectively. Carbon atoms are aqua, nitrogen atoms are blue, oxygen atoms are red and hydrogen atoms are white.
In 2009, Todd Mart�nez, a professor of chemistry at Stanford University, and graduate student Ivan S. Ufimtsev published information about their National Science Foundation (NSF)-supported study in which they'd rewritten algorithms to run on a computer's GPU rather than the central processing unit (CPU) of a traditional desktop computer.
When designing and simulating molecules, computers can spend long periods of time--ranging from days to years--running the complex mathematical equations (or algorithms) used by scientists and engineers to develop more effective drugs, catalysts for fuel cells and other molecular-based materials and applications. The improved method for running algorithms calculated the structures of test molecules up to 650 times faster than the molecular design program called GAMESS running on a computer's CPU.

BHLDN: Party Details & Décor
Store Profile
- Location: multiple locations and online
- Website: bhldn.com/the-shop_decor
Store History
- Founded: 2011
- Founded by: Anthropologie
- Headquarters: Philadelphia, PA
- Sister stores: Anthropologie, Terrain, Urban Outfitters, Free People
An understated word with significant meaning charmed us. And so began, BHLDN. Inspired by the Dutch word for "to keep," as well as countless tales from family and friends of the extraordinary weddings they'd been part of, we began dreaming up something new. Our roots are with Anthropologie, so a passion for experience and creating one-of-a-kind moments runs deep. But our offering speaks more to the not-so-everyday occasions—ours is a voice that celebrates a woman's most anticipated milestones. And one that gives tradition a twist.
Earlier this year the brains behind Anthropologie opened a beautiful wedding focused shop, BHLDN (short for Beholden). Not one to leave good design to fashion alone, last week they finally launched their décor section of products. Don't worry, you don't need to be planning a wedding to enjoy this shop because their goods made great home décor and unique party supplies!
If you like anything Anthropologie or Terrain sells you'll love this store. It's full of whimsical accessories, including vintage tabletop goods, unique keepsakes, repurposed lighting, and fun party details. Staying true to Anthropologie's aesthetic, styles tend toward rustic and nature inspired, shabby chic and even a bit of simple, modern touches. There's tons to oogle, but here is a sampling of a few of our favorite items:

Football: Pine Lake vs. Lake Norman Charter Away
7:30 PM at Lake Norman Charter. Pine Lake Prep (0-2) at Lake Norman Charter (2-0). This is the first meeting.
Players to watch: LN Charter – RB Kodi Moses, LB Austin Calton, RB/WR Neil Baugh; PLP – WR Joe Berg, WR Austin Cook, QB A.J. Carangelo. THE SKINNY: Sophomores Moses (100 rushing yards) and Baugh (62 rushing yards, 100 receiving yards) had breakout games for Lake Norman Charter last week. The Knights spread the ball around, which makes them tough to defend. First-year Pine Lake Prep played well last week in a seven-point loss. Berg caught three passes for 105 yards and two touchdowns, Cook had seven catches for 46 yards and Carangelo ran for one score and threw for another.

When setting up a user, there is a field on the first page labeled Canonical Address.
What is it and what is it used for?
When setting up a user, there is a field on the first page labeled Canonical Address.
What is it and what is it used for?
The canonical address displays in the 'From:" field of messages that are sent.
So say your user account is: email@example.com
You could have a canonical to make it permanently look like mail is coming from: email@example.com
To take the place of a fixed canonical address you can also user mail identities (in the option tab of each user) so the user can select when they want to appear as firstname.lastname@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com or just firstname.lastname@example.com
Mail Identities are for appearing to be signed in to another service-So from zimbra you could send mail as email@example.com without switching clients/browsers/etc.
However that would only take care of sending, you would need an alias to receive mail at email@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com.
You can have some interesting setup's domain wide as well:

This search from the admin console should give you the result:
Did you remember the () ?
Try this:if they have sent you mail recently, if not try looking in the archived mail.log files.Code:grep email@example.com /var/log/mail.log
Yes, you might want to post the headers of one of these messages.

I attended the 8th international Cloud Computing Expo in NYC (June 6th – June 9th 2011). There were over 7,000 attendees with curiosity and enthusiasm about the technology. Many informative workshops were being offered. They all shared these facts:
- Cloud is booming even though it is in an early stage.
- The use of Cloud alone is not enough. Make sure that Cloud is designed with security, reliability, no lock-in and scalability.
- Cloud is highly scalable with SaaS (Software as a Service); PaaS (Platform as a Service); IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), and BaaS (Business model as a Service) for pricing and provisioning solutions.
- Cloud is driven by benefits like resource pooling, use on demand, cutting costs, improving agility, increasing scale, reliability and leveraging best practices.
- The challenges are multi-cloud management, configuration, operation, lock-in, security and standardization.
Here I will focus on the business impact of the Cloud. Cloud computing not only changes the business model for companies; it can also provide new business opportunities for startups.
On June 6th, Steve Jobs announced iCloud. "We are going to demote the PC and the MAC to be just a device. We are going to move the digital hub, the center of your digital life, into the cloud." said Jobs, according to a live blog of his remarks at the Worldwide Developers Conference keynote.
What's the impact of iCloud? If a PC becomes an access device, it may not need an operating system, a hard drive or any software. This change will impact all of the PC makers and software and hardware suppliers. Businesses will need to have a new business model to deliver their products or create new products to meet the needs of the iCloud ecosystem. Refer to Figure 1 the value chain for an internet start-up company that sells compact discs online. What would happen to that value chain?
Figure 1: Value Chain for an internet start-up (source Harvard Business School: Creating Competitive Advantage by Pankaj Ghemawat & Jan W. Rivkin)
On June 28th, Steve Ballmer announced the roll out of Office 365 (in the Cloud). "We believe effective collaboration is a lot more than good group dynamics. It's instant access to relevant information." said Ballmer according to a live blog. Office 365 links Microsoft Office, SharePoint, Exchange and Lync Online into a platform that costs between $2 and $27 per user per month.
What will happen to IT professionals who install software and updates? What will happen to the people who package software? What will happen to the shelf space for software? The domino effect of the downstream businesses is huge when a delivery model is disrupted. Cloud is more of an economic shift rather than a technology shift.
At the same time, high demand has led to numerous innovations, new players and partnerships in the Cloud space. They provide hardware, storage, services, aggregation, integration, optimization, security, privacy and policy management. They move fast and might lock in a particular way of implementation. Gartner projected the Cloud services revenue will reach $148.6 Billion in 2014 vs. $58.6 Billion in 2009.
Welcome to the ever-changing Cloud!

|Governor's Forum on Agriculture features legislative panel
|Written by Marianne Goodland
Rep. Jerry Sonnenberg (R-Sterling) was coy about his future plans, with the announcement last week that U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.) planned to jump into the U.S. Senate race against Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.).
Sonnenberg announced Tuesday, March 4, that he still plans to continue his campaign for Senate District No. 1 in Colorado.
Sonnenberg participated in a legislative panel discussion during the Feb. 27 Governor's Forum on Agriculture. The well-attended forum on "The View of Agriculture from the Dome" caused Sonnenberg to quip that it surprised him that so many people would come that they needed extra chairs, "to listen to politicians!"
The forum began with the panel of five legislators offering brief remarks on legislation affecting agriculture in the 2014 session. In addition to Sonnenberg, the audience heard from Sen. Greg Brophy (R-Wray), who is running for governor; Sen. Gail Schwartz (D-Snowmass Village), Rep. KC Becker (D-Boulder) and Rep. Steve Lebsock (D-Thornton). All serve on the agriculture committees.
Following their remarks, audience members asked questions about legislative policy on water and energy. But the first question focused on Sonnenberg's future. "Who is [Weld County District Attorney] Ken Buck and why is he running for Congress and you're not?" asked one man.

Come on out and "chat it up" with a ranger. Meet Sara Flores from Silt. She's been working at the Rifle Gap State Park Complex for four seasons. She is originally from Novato, Calif., and by profession she is a Realtor and co-owner of Real Estate Out West in Rifle, in the sunny yellow house at 11th Street and Railroad Avenue. Sara says she is blessed with two jobs. As a seasonal park ranger, she gets to help happy people as they find their ideal, temporary home (campsite) for a day, a weekend or a week. As a Realtor, she helps people find their ideal, permanent home in the surrounding community.I asked Sara what her most heartwarming story is, after four seasons at the park. Sara told me, "Sometimes when people get to the park after a long work week, I can see stress written all over their faces. But time and time again, I've watched them transform into happy and relaxed people. This is just one way in which it's clear to me that our natural resources are so important to all of us."Sara also shares that each of our three local state parks have their unique attributes. "Harvey Gap Reservoir has the most beautiful aqua blue color to it. I've even had people ask if we dye the water. Rifle Gap offers opportunities for so many recreational water sports. Rifle Falls is lush and green, it's like a visit to the tropics amongst our high desert landscape." Stage 2 fire restrictions I want to remind everyone that Rifle Gap State Park Complex is following the Stage 2 fire restrictions put in place on other public lands on June 22.That means visitors cannot build, maintain, attend or use a fire or campfire, charcoal grill, coal, wood burning stove or sheepherders stove, including in developed camping and picnic grounds. That also means you can't smoke, except inside an enclosed vehicle, trailer, building or tent. So, no campfires or charcoal grilling allowed. Propane grills are OK. Use your common sense when the wind is blowing. However, there are still plenty of recreational activities at our three state parks. Bring an old-fashioned picnic to the park and enjoy the outdoors. Hike Rifle Falls' Coyote or Squirrel Trails. Attend a park naturalist/environmental education program, which will resume on July 20.

Death toll from Philippine typhoon rises to 325
NEW BATAAN, Philippines Officials say the death toll in a powerful typhoon that lashed the southern Philippines has risen to at least 325 as rescuers search through mud and debris for another 379 people missing.
The Office of Civil Defense reported Thursday that more bodies had been retrieved from the hardest-hit provinces of Compostela Valley and Davao Oriental, as well as six other provinces.
At least 184 of the victims died in Compostela Valley when Typhoon Bopha struck Tuesday. That includes 78 villagers and soldiers who perished in a flash flood that swamped two emergency shelters and a military camp.

Ronald Searle was born in Cambridge, England, in 1920. He started his professional comic career at the age of fifteen, making cartoons for the Cambridge Daily News. In 1939, Ronald Searle joined the army as an architectural draftsman. He served in Singapore, where he was taken prisoner of war. During his time in prison camp, Searle never stopped drawing, and upon his return to England in October, 1945, his work was displayed in an exhibition. A year later, the same year he got married to Kaye Webb, the editor of Lilliput, his first book 'Forty Drawings' was published.
In 1948, Searle's first book collection of the famous St. Trinian's cartoons appeared, 'Hurrah for St. Trinian', about a girl's school gone bad. His devious little school girls became very popular and even inspired a movie, with Alastair Sim playing the role of head mistress. A year later, Searle became illustrator on the theater column of magazine Punch. For the same magazine he made a comic adaptation of 'The Odyssey' in 1955.
By this time, Ronald Searle was one of the foremost illustrators in England, and soon there came interest from the USA as well, where he made an animated film, 'Energetically Yours'. In 1960, Ronald Searle was the first non-American cartoonist to receive the National Cartoonists Society's Reuben Award. Overwhelmed by his popularity and fame, Searle left the comics field and departed for Paris. There he remarried and devoted himself to painting, resulting in 'Anatomies and Decapitations'.
During the sixties, he developed a lighter style and worked on animated opening sequences for films and other assignments, as well as books like 'Hello - Where Did All the People Go?' (1968), 'Take One Toad' (1968), 'The Square Egg' (1968), 'Homage a Toulouse-Lautrec' (1969), 'The Adventures of Baron Munchausen' (1969), and 'Secret Sketchbook' (1970).
After his wife successfully recovered from breast cancer, the Searles moved to the Haute-Provence, and in this new period, Searle took on more work than ever, resulting in numerous projects, among them his famous cat books.

Ned Yost media session: July 8
Before Friday's 7:10 second game of a four-game set against an American League Central foe in the Detroit Tigers, Royals manager Ned Yost spoke about the process involved with handling young players through a transition year. He identified the long-term goal of the franchise and noted that his young players were improving each week.
"We're getting more experienced day-by-day. We're headed in the right direction in a lot of areas," Yost said. "Our bullpen is markedly improved, we're still trying to develop starting pitching all throughout the organization and I think we've got the nucleus of a good offense."
Yost described that he and General Manager Dayton Moore agree that the best way to reach championship caliber occurs by putting together a roster of mostly drafted talent and bringing those athletes through a strong minor league system. Kansas City currently boasts seven former first-round picks on the 25-man active roster.
"That was Dayton's plan from the minute that he got here – a team full of home-grown players," Yost explained. "He's stayed true to that."
With that plan in place, Yost outlined the type of club the Royals need to be to contend for years to come.
"You have to do it with speed and defense. I think you have to do it with starting pitching," Yost stated. "Dayton, the scouting department and our player development people have worked very hard in all of those aspects to try to get us to where we can compete every day."

VISUALIZE-practicing without your instrument in hand
Something I wrote a while back. Just wanted share and see if it still could shed some light.
I've often read in this forum, that many of you are away from your instruments for long periods and have no way of practicing, so I thought I'd share some of my ideas and approaches on how to practice without your instrument in hand.
There is a story about the world renowned pianist Artur Rubenstein who once had to learn an entire piano concerto while on a train to the very recital in which it was to be performed.
He hadn't had the sufficient time to rehearse it before hand and had to rely on his mind's eye to "practice it".
Needless to say, the recital was a success and this approach became a part of his regular technique.
Pagannini was said to have also used this mental practice technique. A man who was curious about how Pagannini practiced, arranged to have a hotel room next to the virtuoso's to catch a glimpse. The man heard nothing, and found out that Pagannini did not always practice with the violin in his hands.
Using the power of "mind over fingers" is not just a mental approach reserved for special people.....heck, I use it all the time, and you can't get any more normal than me.
Often times I don't have time to physically learn tunes for some of the gigs I do, and often just listen to the C.D.s or tapes on the way to the gig, memorizing the songs and solos, parts, or whatever, only to play them live only an hour later.
Anyway, any guitar player, any musician, can use this method.
Though the mind's ability is almost limitless, there are some things that will short out the process, you should be aware of.
Much of our blocks, mentally, come from impurities in our bodies that inhibit our nervous systems. Stress can reduce our capacity as well; attitude can affect greatly our mind's ability to control our body. Taking the attitude and believing the lies that we are untalented or limited will build walls between our minds and hands.
EVERYONE can use this technique to some degree.
Visualizing the fretboard is something that has helped me considerably. I'm often asked how I memorized my modes, and then how I manage to get in and out of them as fluidly as people seem to think, and my answer is simply: "the fretboard lights up for me, and I can see every note choice visually..."
So visualization can be a great, a powerful tool for us.
Our conscious mind thinks, and give commands.
Our subconscious mind attempt the commands.
It is our subconscious that performs breathing, digestion, etc.
But, we can train it to perform, with precision, musical commands as well.
Repetition of input will cause the inner process to become more forward, and take on an immediacy, and second nature akin to breathing, and blinking of eyes.
Negatively, you can keep telling yourself you are going to screw up that one solo in the 3rd song, and it will most often bear out as such.
Positively, a piece practiced many times; a mode practiced many times; chord fingerings; etc. will tend to burn into your brain's deepest regions and and thusly, give you more muscle memory control, and deliver accurate results.
Hearing things from within; seeing music visually; sensing your playing BEFORE it happens all require one common thing: FOCUS without FEAR.
Focusing without fear takes a calm approach.
It takes an acceptance of the moment, and letting go of the past and future results.
And it takes the ability to just let the music happen, and not try and "control" it.
Hearing music from within takes the discipline of ear training and creating a foundation of sounds and their relationships, once internalized, you can almost learn a tune from memory.
I've played countless gigs where a tune is called that I've never played before, and I've had to play it on the spot from having only the memory (sometimes quite distant) to work from.
Seeing music visually, can be seeing the fretboard, see unrelated non-muscial shapes and colors that your mind associates with certain sounds. It can be seeing the relationships of distance from chord to chord, interval to interval, and it can be quite helpful. It can be seeing the notation in your head and visualizing the fingerings. All come with time spent on creating those associations.
Sensing your playing BEFORE you play it, is a kind of sixth sense, and a kind of confidence. You can sense the tension rising in your body as a difficult passage come along and diffuse it. You can improvise your solo mentally ahead of time while the pianist is soloing over his chorus of the jazz standard. The key to sensing ahead, is relaxation and listening carefully.
A clever player will always seek the techniques of practice that yield the highest quality result, with the least effort. Visualization is such a technique, although it does require laying some ground work and some mental concentration, it can require less physical energy, in the long run.
All that is necessary is for you to have a clear concept of the musical result you want to achieve, then your fingers will be guided naturally towards the realization of the goal, provided that your conscious mind gets out of the way, and doesn't try too hard to control the process. Some details of playing require special attention, repetition and careful analysis and will resist this technique, but much of the kind of physical contact with the instrument can be reduced by doing more with your mind than you have been accustomed to doing. The idea is to allow the music to become a part of your inner mind and let it flow from within, rather than having to squeeze it out with force.

that's why we (I) try to emphasize the necessity of internalizing music. if you can translate your mind (and ear) effortlessly to your fingers, all the technical clean-up can come later. but if you spend all your time running up and down scales to get your fingers up-to-snuff, you lose that time that could be devoted to breaking down musical contexts and elaborating on your ability to hone your real-time musical logic (or for performers, reciprocity of that logic)

I try to study the theoretical aspect of the instrument like ubication, chord progressions, chord shapes but as far a studying and entire piece of music seems very difficult...

chord shapes aren't theoretical, they're physical preset voicings that will eventually reduce the efficiency with which you process musical thoughts down the line.
breaking down a piece of music is the single best way to gain theoretical knowledge. everything else is used to build up to that, but the only way you can understand how the whole is more powerful than a summation of the parts of any piece of art, you need to break down the music in context and extract from it all you can before moving onto the next.
it's an arduous process, but it's the equivalent of adding an extra mile or two to your run in the morning - high pain, high gain. if you're not up to push yourself as hard as you can, why bother maintaining the pace you've already built towards? the only brick walls are mental until you're dead.

I live in Amsterdam in the Netherlands and after two miscarriages I am now pregnant for the third time and.. I just entered my second trimester. If I hadn't seen The Business of Being born two/three years ago I probably would still have thought that a hospital birth is safest. The documentary opened my eyes and because of that I was able to educate myself the last couple of years abouth pregnancy and chilbirth. I am so grateful that I can put it to use now!!!
Here in the Netherlands we have many options. Home births are more common that anywhere else in the world I think? Even though the general vision towards birth is so wide and open minded, the protocols in our hospitals are similar to the ones in the USA. Because of that I knew going into this pregnancy that a hospital birth does not have my preference anymore. I thought a home birth or a birth center would be the best for me. Thanks to My Best Birth ( I have just read it) I found out that birth centers that are placed within the hospital have the same protocols as the hospital they are a part of. Again, I am so so grateful for that information.
I now realy wish to have a home birth. If I for any reason don't feel comfortable at home I will always have a freestanding birth center nearby that my midwife will open in March.
Ricky and Abby, God bless you. Forever grateful!

Baltimore County Tourism and Promotion
You may have never realized it, but Baltimore County actually has quite a bit in common with Ireland. Both have towns named "Dundalk." Both are rich in character and tradition. And both are Irish on March 17th.
Let's face it; holidays are a lot of work. No, no, not for me, but for other people… "Sorry Mom!" So much time goes into making Thanksgiving dinner, buying Halloween costumes and all the other holiday traditions that seem to sneak up on us every year.
If Thanksgiving is a fine tailored suit, St. Patty's is a pair of green plaid shorts. The average St. Patrick's Day reveler has no frantic errands to run, no elaborate feasts to prepare or attend, and no long-term plans or travel to figure out ahead of time (take that New Year's Eve). Just the wearin' of the green and a safe ride home and you're good to go. Now that's a holiday I can look forward to!
No matter what you enjoy most about St. Patrick's Day, make sure to drop by Baltimore County's great neighborhood Irish pubs to celebrate all things Irish, with great food, great music, and great times.

I've not seen much talk about the HTC Incredible with Zimbra. I have two HTC Incredible units that we activated with ActiveSync (MS Exchange support) to our Zimbra servers run NE 6.06. The contacts, calendars and mail seemed to sync just fine. I can receive mail, respond to calendar request, see GAL, etc. However, when I send an email...it just sits in the OUT box. This work with IMAP servers but not with Zimbra running ActiveSync.
We installed a couple Android MarketPlace apps (RoadSync & TouchDown), they both are able to sync and send mail. But we'd like to use the standard interface.
Any ideas? We really like what we see...but not with this issue.
