Biot Poroelasticity
Application ID: 483
The Poroelasticity interface couples Darcy's law and solid mechanics to assess deformation of porous media that results from fluid withdrawals.
The model builds on top of the Terzaghi Compaction example. Results from Terzaghi compaction and Biot poroelasticity analyses are compared to each other and are a good match to published analyses.

This is from purchased (not estate) grapes. Made from a mixture of vineyards that are all premier cru level. This is a delicate yet persistent rendition of a Pinot Noir.
Light ruby garnet color. Delicate but interesting nose of ripe cherry extract with a slightly sour note, enveloped in warm, earthy, gravelly scents. Lithe in the mouth, bone dry flavors of earthy, winey cherries and loads of minerals immediately hit the palate, but in a very light framework. Very linear, the wine stays light and almost ethereal in texture yet the flavors linger. A wee bit of tannin adds a physical presence. Drinking really well now (though it likes air: it was better the second night after being under a Vacu-Vin enclosure), I think this will last another 1 to maybe 3 years. B+. Was $29.99 from WTSO.com, so not that great a bargain relative to other wines, but a good bargain as compared to usually fairly expensive Joseph Drouhin wines.
This was really good. Mouthwatering acids balanced nicely by beautifully ripe fruit. I really liked the 2009 of this wine, and this is just as good if not a bit better.
Vivid dark ruby color. Nose took a while to open up, but eventually yielded inviting scents of ripe mixed berries, ripe plums, fruitcake, and a wee bit of earthiness. Very crisp, but ripe and smooth in the mouth. Just a pure pleasure to drink. Medium full body, the antithesis of heavy, but with nice concentration of ripe, winey plums and blackberry. Long, pure-tasting finish. This is a great choice with any tomatoey Italian pasta or braise. Will last at least 2-3 years and maybe longer. Was $15.99 at Trader Joe's at Bailey's Crossroads. A-. Imported by Prestige Wine Imports, NYC.
When I see these words on the front label, back label, or in promotional materials or tasting notes for a wine, I immediately am skeptical:
This was inexpensive, but I had reasonably high hopes for it, since it's from a relatively cool climate area. But it was like any typical overripe "international style" red you can get from some industrial Argentina Malbec or Chilean Carmenere. (I've never met a Malbec I really liked, though I have had a Carmenere or two that were quite good, though most are overripe fruit bombs.) Plus it's at the end of its life. The second day, it was flatness and showed a bit of oxidation, even though I had stored it under a Vacu-Vin. Not a good sign. C-. Was $10.99 from the European Import Store on Pershing and Washington in Arlington.
Another old school Beaujolais from this producer. If you like your Beaujolais lean and minerally, this is for you.
Dark ruby garnet. Dark smoky, rocky minerals take the lead in the nose, with hard cherry candy fruit scents. Lean, crisp, and persistent in the mouth. With minerals from start to finish, and crunchy cherry, plum fruit. Great acids and some very fine tannins mark the finish. This is not vacuous, fruity, fun Beaujolais, but a wine made for dinner duty. B+. If memory serves, I got this for around $21 at table and Vine in West Springfield, MA when I was up there last fall. Imported by Louis/Dressner Selections.
(Sorry, 2009 depicted.)
This was a fantastic value, but it needs a lot of air to hit its stride.
Vibrant, dark, violet-tinged ruby. The first night, the nose was almost reduced, showing a little of that tank stink. Nights two and three it really started to shine. Loads of ripe, lively dark raspberry and dark cherry fruit, augmented by loads of stony minerality. Straightforward flavors of lightly spicy, very pure tasting dark raspberry extract. Fairly full-bodied but with really nice balance. Hard to stop drinking. A fantastic weeknight dinner wine. Decant this a few hours ahead of time, and use a Vinturi type aerator if you have one. B+. This was $10.99 from Zachys.com, making it, as mentioned above, a great value.
A dark and clearly Syrah-based CDR. Nice if you like the style (I'm more of a Grenache man). But it's too pricey at this quality level.
Saturated black ruby with violet overtones. Nose leads with loads of rocky minerals and some lightly scorched earth. Dark and low-toned flavors, again showing scorched earth, blackberry skin, and aged beefy notes. Quite a bit of tannin and body, but it's got decent acids. Not a lot of complexity, but a bruiser that has lots of character. B. This was around $20, I believe, from Zachys.com. Imported by Erin Cannon Imports, Manhasset, NY.
(Sorry, 2008 depicted.)
Not my style of Zinfandel. Anymore, at least. 15 years ago, I think I liked this style a bit more. A massively ripe fruit bomb, with low acids and a fair amount of heat in the finish.
Dark blackish ruby. Rich nose of smoky ripe blackberry syrup and a bit of fruitcake. Weighty but a bit dead-textured in the mouth. Lots of low-toned blackberry ooze fruit. No acid to speak of and very heavy body. Fairly simple. Here's my simile: Like drinking the liquid version ofan old 20-lb. barbell you found at an estate sale of some guy who recently died at age 93. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Actually, there is.C-. Was $15.99 from WTSO.com.
A unique style of Zinfandel. But it's pretty good and not very expensive.
Startling light color for a Zin. Basically a medium light ruby. The first night, the nose was kind of funky, throwing off some stewed prune and acetate notes. But the next night was much better. There was a melange of superripe blackberry, fragrant baking spices, and warm sandstone. Full-bodied and loose-jointed in the mouth, maybe lacking a bit of focus and concentration, but with lots of minerally blackberry fruit swimming around. A bit of heat shows through in the finish (it's 15% for Pete's sake), but it's not out of balance. Drink over the next year. This would be very nice with winey beef stews and pot roasts. B/B+. Was $14.99 at Total Wine in Fairfax.
I usually don't buy non-DOC Italian wines, especially from Tuscany, because they're usually non-indigenous varietals and tend to be heavily oaked and "international" in style. I hate that shit on principle. But my research indicated that this 60% Syrah, 20% Sangiovese, 20% (f*cking) Merlot is aged only in large casks for a short period, and was grown organically near Pisa. So I gave it a shot. I like it.
The first night it was very tight and unyielding. I got nothing out of it. Good thing I didn't review it then. But I put it under Vacu-Vin for two days and came back to on night 3. Much better.
Very dark, black ruby with violet highlights. On night 3 the nose showed very precise dark cherry fruit, framed nicely by slightly smoky, rock dusty- minerals. Concentrated, focused fruit in the mouth, with nice persistence and texture. Medium-full body and great acids. Finishes just a tad shorter than I'd like, but is very pleasurable. The fact that it took so long to show itself tells me this wine will age nicely for a few years. If you're going to drink it in the next 12 months, be sure to decant it in a huge decanter several hours ahead of time. This wine will go well with a wide range of dishes.B+. Was $14.99 from WTSO.com. Imported by Superior Wines, Cranford, NJ.
PS -- I have to say, the label just sucks. Really stupid.
This wine, which I previously reviewed several months ago, has softened and opened up appreciably. It now warrants an A-. Fragrant, intense, very linear, loads of intense stony minerals. Very clingy flavor persistence. I have one bottle left, which I'll try to hold off on drinking for at least another year.
I really like old vine reds from the freakishly deep sands of Contra Costa County. They really represent a unique American terroir. This wine is composed of 100+ yr. old vines from26% Zinfandel, 25% Petite Sirah, 25% Mataro, 20% Carignane, 3% Alicante Bouschet and 1% Black Malvoisie. And it's really good.
Very dark, plasma-like ruby/violet. Enchanting nose of rich berries, cocoa powder, minerals, and ashy embers, with a single line of tangy rhubarb at the end. Rich, low-toned, and darkly berryish, with a the cocoa component still there. It's quite dry, with lots of soft tannin coating the sides of the mouth. And despite the 15.2% alcohol, there's some very nice acidity buoying everything up. Although this winery's single varietal wines tend to be a little mote expensive than its "field blend," I think I usually like the filed blend a little more. A-. If I'm remembering correctly, I think I got this several months ago for around $18 from WineAccess.com.
This is a big, extroverted Chablis.
Very pale gold. Nose burbling over with green apple, peach, lemon, and chalky minerals. Fleshy, flashy, and vigorous in the mouth. The first day the fruit was at the fore, and it seemed ripe, intense, and somewhat simple. But the next day, the minerals were out in force, with intense chalky-stoniness overshadowing the still ample fruit. The first night it seemed almost -- unusually for a Chablis -- like there was a bit of residual sugar, but as it aired, that sweetness decreased. By the second day it seemed bone dry. Good acids for such a large-limbed Chablis. What it lacks in complexity and elegance it makes up in sheer force and vigor. B+. Drink over the next 2 years, over which it will probably gain a bit of complexity. Was $21.99 from WTSO.com, and imported by Louis Latour, San Rafael, CA.

Enhance Your Future Performance - End Of Season EvaluationWritten by on November 2, 2009 Suggestions For Evaluating Your Performance
In a sport, or any endeavor for that matter, the only way we improve and move ahead is to go through an evaluation process from time to time. The end of the season is a great time to think back through the last season and do an honest evaluation. If you do, you will be taking advantage of a process that will surely enhance your future performance.
The best time to evaluate your season is right after it is over. Don't wait and think that you can do this later on. Do it while the information is fresh in everyone's minds and while the notes are still intact. Delaying this process will only make it harder on everyone. Set up a meeting for the week following the last race of the year. Tell all of the team members to attend and to bring with them any and all notes they may have taken throughout the year.
You can make it an end of season party if you like and invite all of the family members for each of your team. Find a few minutes where the crew can meet and talk over the year. This could turn out to be a good time to reflect on successes and areas where improvement would make things better. The following are some areas where discussion might bring up new ideas and solutions to problems. Feel free to add to this list as you see fit.
There are four subcategories under the heading of performance, so we will take a look at each one separately.
One of the first things we think about throughout the season and especially at season's end is how the chassis performed. Were we fast enough through the corners or do we need to make changes? This is easy to determine. Any one of the crew and the observers for the races can remark about how your car looked compared to the lead cars (if you weren't the lead car of course).
Did your driver run up on cars at mid-turn or get run over? If you took segment times during the season, you will know the answer to this question. If you didn't, make a note to do that next season. If you're off on lap times, you must figure out where you are losing (or more appropriately gaining) time. Each setup sheet for each race should have the lap times for all of the significant cars you are running against. It would be a nice addition to include turn segment times also for both your and their cars.
Tire temperatures are a great indication of performance after the fact. That and tire wear tell lots about the dynamic balance of your setup. If you changed setups through the season, go over what the driver said about those changes, look at the lap times for the different setups, and see if you improved your qualifying and finishing order.
How did your engine perform over the course of the season? Did it require work and did it hold up well? Look for notes on cooling issues, fuel feed problems, and ignition failures. A discussion on those topics could result in basic changes to the engine package that could help prevent similar problems next year.
This includes discussion of items such as how your car is wired, plumbed for cooling and oil, plug evaluation, radiator efficiency, and others. A review of the type of radiator or other components that affect the engine temperature might be in order.
Ask everyone to critique how the crew performed in the handling of duties, performance under pressure, and other topics. How satisfied is each one of them in their work and the work of others. Did they mesh well and were they able to cover each other when things got busy? Is the shop time constructive besides being fun?
The work needs to get done and at the same time, the crew should look forward to the time it spends at the shop and the track. This is an important issue for almost all teams. The more successful teams seem to be having fun in all they do.
The driver needs to be evaluated too. This is a sensitive subject most of the time. The driver's job is the most important one on the crew simply because all that might go right otherwise must be taken the rest of the way by the driver. Just as other team members need review and support, so does the driver.
A good driver won't mind a good overview of his/her performance during the past season. Along with "constructive criticism" must come encouragement and suggestions for improvement for all team members including the driver.
The process of getting the car ready to go racing and the work that goes on at the track is important to success. A team that does a better job of preparing a car at the shop will have more track time with fewer headaches. Evaluate how prepared you were last season.
You've seen the teams who are all over the car from the time it's unloaded at the track until it is fired up and goes out. They are usually late for practice and get to run less laps as a result. Maybe the team members can't get to the shop during the week, but they should. Doing basic maintenance work on race day is a hard way to go.
When I raced, I had other teams at the track comment that I never worked on my car. I told them I got all of my work done in the shop before I left for the track. And that is the way it must be. Other than tire selection and fueling, everything needs to be completed so that the car can take part in the first practice session. Think about how prepared your team was last season. If they were not well prepared, then maybe they can get better organized so that things run more smoothly in the future.
Did your team have all of the tools that were necessary to properly work on the car last season? In thinking back, you might recall having to borrow certain tools to the point that it might be time to buy those tools. If some of your power equipment is getting old and worn, it might be time for a rebuild or replacement.
Think about what tools other teams had and how that affected their preparation. If you don't have a set of scales, then now might be a time to find the funds for that most basic setup tool. Pit guns, compressors, drills, rivet guns, welders, race jacks, saws, and more are all tools that we use constantly. Go over each and every one of them to make sure they will hold up next season.
The way in which the crew communicates is of primary importance in getting anything done efficiently on the team. In any business or endeavor, the methods used to communicate will make the difference between success and failure. A separate and frank discussion about how your crew transfers information would be one of the most important discussions you can have post season.
Crew Chief
The leader of the team must effectively communicate how he wants the team to perform, meaning who does what and when. The overall plan for that can be designed by the team, but ultimately it is the leader who enforces the plan and executes the orders. It all starts at the top.
Individual Team Members
Each team member must know exactly what is expected of him or her, and be willing and able to execute the assigned duties. Other team members can help with the learning process of a person new to his or her duties, but everyone must be up to task before the first race of the season.
The team members must develop a good line of communication between themselves outside the crew chief so that their duties will assist each other and not negatively affect each other. Some tasks just take two or more people to accomplish. So, team members will help out when needed. Don't be afraid to ask for help, or give a hand when needed.
A driver must learn to communicate with not only the crew chief, but other crew members about how the car is performing both in the handling aspects as well as mechanical functions. He/she can prevent serious failures by letting the crew know when the tranny develops a funny sound, or there is a vibration or the brake pedal is going down slightly.
And of course the driver must effectively communicate how the car feels handling-wise with detailed information on entry, mid-turn, and exit. Even on the straightaway there is information to be passed on. If the engine is on the chip hard, or the acceleration tails off past the flag stand, that could mean changes are needed to the engine systems.
The spotters not only must have a comfortable and effective relationship with the driver, they must be able to spot trouble with the car and assess the level of damage in a crash and be able to communicate that to the crew. How did your spotter do this season?
The spotter also communicates with track officials, keeps track of where the pace car is, relays the location of other cars relative to theirs and do all of that while remaining calm, clear, and professional. It is an important job and any feedback the crew can give to make their job better helps the entire team.
How did you do getting to the track each race? Was your trailer too crowded or did your truck labor under the weight of all of that race stuff? Talk over your transportation needs and see if you can do better if things didn't go so well.
If you blew out a number of trailer tires, now might be the time to check the bearings and alignment. Your tires might be overloaded or under-pressurized. The axles might be bent where the tires are toed and in need of alignment. We never think of these areas of equipment until things go wrong. Do preventative maintenance now.
Sponsors, Media, and Public Relations
Racing is an expensive proposition. We need all of the support we can get, and it's out there somewhere. If you only cover 25 percent of your costs to go racing, that is money you don't have to spend. Go for every dollar you can get and do a good job of explaining how sponsoring your car might benefit area businesses. Improve your sponsor search or create a plan to go after sponsorship.
How did your team do with the media? The more exposure you can get, the better your chances of getting help with your expenses. If you are crowd friendly, then someone in that grandstand owns a business and would like to see their name on your car. If you don't create positive public relations, then your chances of finding partners is slim.
Create a website if you don't already have one. This is a place where a sponsor can direct clients to go for more information about the team they support. They are looking to enhance their image to their customers and you can help. A good website is money well spent.
Finances and Budget
Now is a good time to organize all of your expenditures over the past season. Break down all costs so that you can easily see where the money goes. It might just surprise you. For example, if you are spending 15 percent of your racing budget on fuel, then a fuel supplier coming on board as a sponsor offering to fill the race truck each race day would lower your costs by 15 percent.
Suppose your tire bills are 20 percent of the year's budget. You might just talk a tire store into buying a new set of tires each week in exchange for sponsorship. Again, that is 20 percent right off the top in savings. Most potential sponsors can relate to direct cost items and covering those costs than just forking over money. You supply the invoices and they reimburse, simple as that.
A local grocery store could furnish refreshments such as cold drinks, chips, and maybe even hamburgers and bread for track consumption. This gives them a tie-in to the community and shows it supports the local race team by having its name on the car. The local auto parts store might offer up a set of ball joints or other relatively cheap parts that would keep you racing and lower your budget.
The point we are trying to make here is that in order to be successful, you need to be organized. The more organized your team is, the more successful you will be. I don't know any teams that win on a consistent basis that are disorganized.
Team meetings should take place in the pre-season, during the season many times, and post season. I once consulted with a team who regularly met around a conference table. When I was back home in Florida, they would call me from the shop in Wisconsin on a conference phone with all of them seated around a table. They won a major NASCAR series championship that year. Let's have a meeting.

How did your team do last season? Now might be the time to discuss all that happened and plan for next year so that you can be better prepared. Team meetings can happen anytime throughout the season.Team duties can be shared if needed. Mechanics who work well together will benefit the team. One person who does not get along well with playmates can ruin your season.And you wonder why I use "he/she" so much. It's her fault. Each team member has a list of responsibilities and you can go over how they performed after the season is over. Everyone needs a thorough review and everyone should be open to suggestions.Start your younger team members off by providing lots of help, oversight, and instruction. Every part of the race car is put together in a special way. This ensures that parts don't fall off, conflict with other parts, and last as long as possible. Safety is an issue too. The systems in the car must work to ensure a safe environment for all of the team members, not just the driver.Some of your team members will start out with simple duties like applying decals. Later on they may elect to spend more time at the shop. The older members of the team can teach them the skills needed to prepare other parts of the car.Discuss how your driver communicated with the team. Was his/her explanation of how the car worked detailed enough so that the right changes could be made to improve the performance? If so, expand on that. If not, develop a plan for communication between the driver and crew for next year.If you get to the end of the season and can't find many notes that detail each race, then you need to be better prepared for the coming season by assigning a person to take and keep track of setup notes. You need lap times of your car and other fast cars, tire data, setup data, and driver comments.Some team jobs only involve work at the shop. A good welder can be a valuable addition to the team. Most of our time "racing" is spent at the shop. The environment needs to be conducive to having fun and working toward goals. If the team dreads going to the shop to work, then more and more work will be put off until the car goes to the track, and that's not very efficient.In the busy and loud environment of the racetrack, we need to be able to communicate. When all crew members have on headsets, then the crew chief can make sure things get done quickly. If you can afford a radio system, then by all means get one. It will help eliminate a lot of confusion and frustration.
In the busy and loud environment of the racetrack, we need to be able to communicate. When all crew members have on headsets, then the crew chief can make sure things get done quickly. If you can afford a radio system, then by all means get one. It will help eliminate a lot of confusion and frustration.Things can get busy around the car on race day. This team works well together completing each task while not interfering with others' tasks.When we talk about communication, we need to include the track officials. How well did your team get along with the track personnel? Could your relationship be better? You don't have to love the officials. You just have to get along reasonably well. If your team is a winning team, the officials might look more closely at what you are doing and that might not agree with the team. Look at it as flattery. Losing teams get no attention at all.

I bet you didn't know that you could recycle old or damaged CD's by turning them into crocheted coasters with this crochet pattern. Why throw those CD's away when you can up-cycle them into a crocheted coaster that is useful in your home. Skip throwing your CD's away, use them as a solid interior base for the CD Coasters Set crochet pattern. Coasters are used on wood furniture to help whisk away moisture and protect the furniture from water stains. Pull out all those yarn scraps and extra balls and start creating a myriad of fun designs. These flower and fruit inspired coasters will bring a sense of spring to your home, without the April showers.
CD Coasters Set 1 Crochet Pattern works best when crocheted with a sport weight cotton yarn. Cotton is a natural fiber that dries quickly and prevents liquid from running off the coaster. This means there are no worries about damaging the wood surface. Mary Ann Sipes and Maggie Weldon created this easy crochet level pattern to give you something fun to create for your home. The pattern is perfect for a beginning crocheter, or anyone that in need of a coaster set for a table accent. CD Coasters crochet pattern includes instructions for Daisy, Watermelon, Lime, Rosebud, Sunflower, Rose, and Scallops coasters. Switch up the colors so you can make more coasters without having two that look the same. These coasters are so much fun to make; you might not want to stop creating them. It's a good thing they also make a nice gift.

First off, Nginx is a very fast web server / reverse caching proxy, and you probably don't need to worry about installing it unless you really need that extra performance edge over the "standard" apache. Here are the steps:
- Grab a fresh instance of SUSE from the beta web site, and ssh in as idcuser. Not sure how to do that? Read the How-to Wiki.
- Get Nginx -- either from the official download area or just do something like wget http://sysoev.ru/nginx/nginx-0.7.64.tar.gz
- Extract and untar -- e.g. gunzip < nginx-0.7.64.tar.gz | tar xvf -
- Become root, e.g. sudo su -- fire up Yast -- e.g. yast2 then go to Software -> Software Management and install the following packages: openssl-devel , gcc, pcre-devel, zliv-devel Exit Yast and exit the root shell -- e.g. exit
- Go that directory you've extracted nginx to , e.g. cd /nginx-0.7.64
- Run configure -- e.g. ./configure
- make
- Install the thing -- e.g. sudo make install
- You're all set. nginx is installed under /usr/local/nginx and you could start it up -- e.g. /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx and/ or edit the config file located under /usr/local/nginx/conf/

Comments about Detroit Lions NFL Official On Field 59FIFTY Cap:
Love this hat and it's currently my go-to. Living in LA, this hat makes me stand out and I get a lot of compliments. I had trouble with the sizing because I was in between two. I went with the larger because after some wear and a little sweat it'll shrink a bit, but until then I look a little dorky.

It is a great product and is very stylish. I would say that maybe you should get it a sizer larger because the one I bought feels a little snug and all of my other hats are the same size and fit a little bigger. Overall it is nice and I love it

He adopted the name Lupe Fiasco and began recording songs in his father's basement, and joined a group called Da Pak. The group disbanded shortly after its inception, and Fiasco soon met rapper Jay-Z who helped him sign a record deal with Atlantic Records. His debut album, "Food & Liquor," was released in 2006.

Jhene Aiko's GQ photo spread has been published by Def Jam.
The record label posted several images from the GQ shoot on its official website. The photographs are scheduled to be included in the May issue of the magazine, according to Def Jam.
Aiko was mentioned by Pusha T in an article published today (April 24). "I'm not really listening to much rap," Push said. "Right now on the daily, I listen to Jhene Aiko. I like her a lot. I like her music. I was sort of last on it, too. I saw her video with Childish Gambino and it was just a good song. It was one of those things where I had been seen that video and it just clicked. I was like, 'Man, I want that record.' I went, downloaded the EP, bought it and I've been listening to it a lot."
Aiko's GQ photographs are below.

The Nomad is a cool pack, very versatile. I tried one on at the sheep show and liked its design. The EMRII is also a great pack.
The Nomad is a cool pack, very versatile. I tried one on at the sheep show and liked its design. The EMRII is also a great pack.
Thanks BB! I thought I was leaning towards the Stone Glacier, but now I'm not sure. Are there any stores out there that carry these or are they strictly online orders? That's the one hard thing on so many of these top end items...they're so advanced that your average stores (Cabelas, Bass Pros, Sportsmans) won't carry them. Maybe they'll be at the Western Hunt Expo next week...I can only hope.
Kifaru only sells direct. Stone Glacier is sold out of Schnee's in Bozeman, MT.
Many guys that have these packs are willing to let you check it out if they live near you.
Another note:
Everybody wants to have a clear winner in a gear comparison, but the truth is when you get to gear at this level, it is all really good. I preferred the Kifaru for my uses.
Like I wrote in the article, some people will prefer one over the other, based on their preferences, but both are absolutely top shelf.
I finally pulled the trigger on a Kifaru DT1 with bikini frame after reading lots of posts on another forum and reading BB's review. I can't wait to put it to use over the summer on some backpacking trips! My only concern is that it will be to big for day hunts? I really wanted a pack that performs well at both day hunting and extended hunts. I figure if it's to big, it will be easier to find a day back then having a pack that's to small. Thanks to BB for his work and reviews!
The DT1 works great as a daypack. It compresses to practically nothing. Same goes for the Terminus.
Last summer I debated back and forth between the Kifaru and the SG. I wanted the camo of the Kifaru and the light weight of the SG but the Kifaru takes several weeks to get and would not have got before hunting trip so I bought the SG. After one season I couldn't be happier. Thanks BB for all the testing.
I couldn't decide which one was funnier. Watching BB kick a perfectly good bag off of a hill so we could "see how it did", or watching Aron throwing a loaded Kifaru bag up and down in his front yard to see if he could knock the load loose.

Is it possible to create a separate Zimbra server just to handle archiving?
The purpose of doing this is to enhance security so that administrators who have access to the main Zimbra server cannot access the archive Zimbra server etc.
This is also for backup in case the main Zimbra server breakdown, we can still access the archived emails on the archive Zimbra server.

Robinson and Payne Dominate Hueco
Paul Robinson took first in men's and Angie Payne won first in women's at the Hueco Rock Rodeo in Hueco Tanks, Texas this past weekend. The open competition pitted some of the world's strongest boulderers against one another on the problems of Hueco Tanks. Each climber had from 7 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, February 16 to rack up their six highest sends for the comp.
Angie Payne won first place in women's after sending Crimping Christ on the Cross (V10), The Butterpumper (V11), and Hobbit with a Boner (V8). "Despite the name, this boulder was actually pretty nice," Payne writes about Hobbit on her blog. "It begins with easy roof climbing over a scary, deep pit then continues out the roof with a few harder moves that lead to a lip encounter and a hard, crimpy ending."
Nina Williams took second after sending Sunshine (V11) and The Butterpumper (V11) and Jill Church-Waters won third for sending The Butterpumper (V11) and Sam's Problem (V8).
On the men's side, Paul Robinson took first by climbing Blood of a Young Wolf (V14), Bastard in a Basket (V13), Phantom Limb (V12), The Tax Gatherer (V12), Cut to the Quick (V12), and Ayanami Right (V12). Sam Davis came in second by sending Neon Desert (V14), Full Throttle (V13), Phantom Limb (V12), and Cut to the Quick (V12), among others. Jimmy Webb took third with Phantom Limb (V12), Ayanami Right (V12), Power of Landjager (V11), Le Chninkel (V11), Shake n Bake (V11), and Full Service (V10).

Saturated Fats Don't Cause Heart Disease? New Research Revealed
Are saturated fats inherently bad for you? For years, the idea drilled into our heads has been that the saturated fats found in meat, cheese, and butter are to be largely avoided due to the increased risk of heart attacks, stroke, and heart disease. But now we're not so sure.
A new analysis of research was released in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine this week, and reported by the New York Times health blog here, cast doubt upon this guideline.
The new research reviewed over 80 studies that looked at what the participants reportedly ate, plus blood test results that measured fatty acids and cholesterol levels. This analysis did not find increased heart disease in those who ate less saturated fat, nor did it find less disease in those eating more unsaturated fat—the good stuff found in natural foods like olive oil, fish, and avocados. It did, however, notice a benefit in those taking Omega-3 fish-oil supplements in preventing the onset of heart disease.

Spike Feresten was raised in West Bridgewater, MA, where he attended public school and got his first job as a bag boy at the local supermarket. With a dream to be the next Jimi Hendrix, Feresten attended Berklee College of Music in Boston. One night, disillusioned with his career choice, Feresten thought he might feel better if he dropped four-foot fluorescent light bulbs out the window of his dorm room - just to watch them shatter on the sidewalk eight stories below. He got caught and was evicted. Soon after, Feresten saw David Letterman performing the exact same stunt on his late-night talk show, and a real light bulb went on: If network television encouraged this sort of beha...

Enjoy this video. As David Hembrow noted:
"The remarkable thing about it is how familiar all of it looks. There's exactly the same level of cycle helmet wearing as in the country now, roughly the same number of people riding on back carriers, children on bikes, "ordinary clothes", practical bikes and smiling faces."
You think these people were talking about 'going green' or 'saving the planet'? Nah…so, what other reasons could there be? :-p.

Let me tell you 'bout this nigga named Franz, he had lots of plans
Involving pots and pans, with fiends for fans
He was a real mean one, traded all his niggas in for a green thumb
Pose able, all weight was unloadable, despite his deformity all guns are hold able
Had his boys on some soldier role
They were risking they lives saying they actions are notable
Torn apart for a purple heart
This brother had a strong start, but the kid lack street smarts
Hey meet James, he works at Ames to get a discount on M&M's video games
He said his co-workers were lames, without brains
Cause he had struck a couple those for which he had aimed
This nigga used to buy grams from Franz uptown
Before he was buck bounced, connection is fucked now
Six years pass and he's still there, helping this old lady with the mean stare
Shopping in a wheel chair, her name was Claire
But she changed it to Greta, to help avoid a stalker with a vendetta
The cat sent her ten letters, saying she was a hat to be backed in leather
And very soon in her living room he met her
Well dressed nightmare in a cashmere sweater
Blue Collar guy with some death in his eye
The tattoo was sitting high, right leg and her thigh
He just wanna see how you respond
When he give thrust to a knife from his powerful arm
And finally police chief officer brief
Who received a phone call from the nearly deceased
He lost his gentle side at the homicide attempt
See now every single thought of murder is tempting
He couldn't ask for a bigger day
The following week he spent his time staring at exhibit A
A bloody knife that bore flesh and bone marrow
And just before he headed home to his wife Carroll
Reported suicide on the other side of town
Frantic mother claims little girl had fallen down
He's on the scene seeing paramedics on the ground
Mom and daddy can't move the boy hiding in his room and
His fellow officers are all trying to subdue her
Head shake in disbelief saying he ain't human
Next time assuming that the media excluded
Displayed on the (?)
Your spirit's absorbed in generators and tanks, data banks
You're retracing your steps and drew blanks
Look at all these lives to waste, it's a dark space
Adrenaline starts to pump increasing your heart rate
You're caught now, imagination has gone wild
You look into the mirror and then you tell me 'who art thou'
You got to be determined like (?) when he fought (?)
You're brains been bust open cause this is a hard trial
No answer just a mental cancer, before you choke I hope you get a chance to
Feel fear, cause this is a real scare
I'm giving you three seconds to tell us how we got here

Some rather curious developments out of the U.K. yesterday…
Early on, James Kirkup, political correspondent for The Guardian, wrote a story to the effect that the British government would recommend that the BBFC, which rather famously banned Manhunt 2 last year, should rate games for the UK market. Kirkup predicted the official word would come today.
Later yesterday, ELSPA, which represents UK game publishers, called Kirkup's report "speculation" and "scaremongering."
Yet Kirkup has proved prescient. As Edge reports this morning:
A report from the UK House of Commons Select Committee on Culture, Media, and Sport has revealed that body's preference in BBFC ratings over the industry self-regulating PEGI system…
the committee maintains that BBFC ratings are more "thorough and rigorous" than the PEGI system, and that the BBFC symbols "command greater confidence"…
Meanwhile, the CMS committee's report itself concludes:
There is a distinct issue about labelling of video games to indicate the nature of their content. Two systems currently exist side by side: the industry awards its own ratings, and the British Board of Film Classification awards classifications to a small number of games which feature content unsuitable for children. The dual system is confusing, and Dr [Tanya] Byron recommended that there should instead be a single hybrid system. We believe that Dr Byron's solution may not command confidence in the games industry and would not provide significantly greater clarity for consumers.
While either of the systems operated by the BBFC and by the industry would be workable in principle, we believe that the widespread recognition of the BBFC's classification categories and their statutory backing offer significant advantages which the industry's system lacks. We therefore agree that the BBFC should have responsibility for rating games with content appropriate for adults or teenagers, as proposed by Dr Byron, and that these ratings should appear prominently. Distributors would of course be free to continue to use industry ratings in addition.
Gizmodo terms the CMS recommendation "decisive," adding:
The decision will come as a real blow to the pan-European games rating system, PEGI, backed by games software developer organisation, ELSPA as well as big guns like Microsoft, Nintendo and Ubisoft.

Study Abroad is not about travel. It's really about encountering the world, and even more about discovering your own country and yourself. Ready to start the process? Visit our office page!
Travel is a part of it, of course. However, the people you meet, the ideas you discover, and the glimpses you get into other ways of living and thinking are the best of it.

If you want to make that commitment, we can help you. Studying Abroad is a process of going abroad, studying abroad, and returning from abroad, and the Trinity program is designed to support you at each step.
Because the world is becoming increasingly interdependent and borderless due to technological advances and an integrated, global economy, Trinity University believes studying abroad is an important key to the future success of today's college student.

This looks great - I really like your style. It looks as though you have created a 3D model and photographed it from directly overhead. The shading is really good, and I like the colours. The maps seem a little small to me - do you have a larger version?
Looking really good so far. It will be interesting to watch this develop.

Violence following the disputed presidential election of late 2010 caused major new displacement in 2011 in Côte d'Ivoire. Violent clashes followed the second round of voting in November 2010 after both candidates, Alassane Ouattara and incumbent president Laurent Gbagbo, claimed victory. The elections were supposed to conclude the long-drawn-out peace process following the armed conflict that broke out in 2002.
There were no consolidated estimates on the number of people internally displaced by either conflict at the end of 2011. Estimates of the number still displaced following the post-election violence ranged between 186,000 and 247,000. Meanwhile, it was not clear how many of the million or more people displaced by the earlier conflict or by localised communal conflicts over the last decade had found a durable solution.
Following the second round of the election, both candidates claimed victory after the provisional results showed a victory for Ouattara. Fighting between the two camps was reported in the west of the country and in the largest city Abidjan until April, when Gbagbo was captured and arrested and Ouattara took office. Most members of the newly formed Forces Républicaines de Côte d'Ivoire (FRCI) fighting in support of Ouattara had been in the former New Forces (Forces Nouvelles) armed opposition. At the height of the crisis in March, UNHCR reported that up to a million people were thought to be displaced, including over 700,000 within or from Abidjan, and 150,000 in the west of the country. More than 200,000 people fled to neighbouring countries.
By the end of 2011, security had largely improved. In the west, however, criminal activities as well as the cross-border movement of armed groups and inter-communal clashes continued, while clashes were ongoing in Abidjan between FRCI factions and between them and pro-Gbagbo groups. In September, a truth and reconciliation commission following the model of South Africa's was sworn in in an effort to forge national unity.
Most of the IDPs found refuge with family and friends; at the end of the year, there had been no survey of their number but international humanitarian agencies estimated that some 170,000 remained in this situation. More information was available on IDPs who had gathered in public or privately owned sites including churches and schools. In October, some 16,000 IDPs were still living in such sites in the west and in Abidjan. Those on private property were under increasing pressure to leave as the owners tried to reclaim it, but they could not return to their homes as they feared reprisal attacks.
Both sides reportedly committed serious violations of human rights and international humanitarian law. Pro-Gbagbo forces were reportedly responsible for killings and massacres of civilians in the west as well as indiscriminate shelling and ethnically-motivated killings and rapes in Abidjan. In July, the UN reported 26 extrajudicial executions and 85 cases of arbitrary arrest and illegal detention in just one month, most committed by supporters of Ouattara, while eight mass graves were uncovered. Sexual violence was perpetrated by both sides on the basis of victims' political or ethnic identity, sometimes publicly or in front of family members. There was also a sharp rise in the recruitment of children into militia groups. In the west, militias and self-defence groups threatened the lives of people including IDPs who had fled to supposedly safer locations, while armed robberies and racketeering were also common.
Following the arrest of Gbagbo, most people displaced since the election reportedly returned without assistance to their places of origin or habitual residence. However, intercommunity tensions and land disputes continued in areas of return and also caused further displacements. Land disputes, between Ivorians considered native to communities in western regions and migrants originating from other regions or from other West African countries were among the triggers of Côte d'Ivoire's conflicts, with "natives" contesting migrants' right to land. In 2011 as in previous years, many IDPs returned to find the plots they had planted either sold or leased by others.
The Ministry of Employment, Social Affairs and Solidarity was charged with ensuring the coordination of the humanitarian response. The national committee it set up in October was at the end of 2011 reviewing a strategic plan drafted by the international community to facilitate the return of those IDPs who were still in sites.
The cluster system for humanitarian coordination was reactivated in January 2011, after international agencies had shifted their focus towards development activities in 2010. Ten clusters were activated including a protection cluster which included child protection, gender-based violence and social cohesion sub-clusters. Initially, continued fighting stopped humanitarian agencies reaching the populations in need; as the security improved, access increased but lack of funding increasingly limited the response, especially in the west.


text: Home > News and Events > Club Blog > Christmas camping Search the Club Blog When Christmas camping So here I sit, well lay actually, writing this blog on my last camp of the year. I'm at Blackmore Club Site in a Vango Force 10 Vortex 300 and it's Christmas Eve Eve. I always try to have a dads and lads Christmas camping trip with my two sons, Tom, aged 14, and 11-year-old Elliot. It's become a bit of a tradition and Blackmore is our usual destination. We pitched up yesterday in record time as the rain was just about to start and then jumped back in the car to head into the Malvern Hills. We drove towards our starting point with that sinking feeling as the rain was getting worse, as was the complaints from the 'lads' about getting wet on the hill. But undeterred we found a parking spot that shortens the walk up to the highest point in the Malverns and found ourselves in what turned out to be the perfect pocket of good weather. More grumbles from the lads (Tom actually) soon disappeared as they got stuck into the walk, which gave us great views of the English and Welsh countryside. We ploughed on through the cold wind until we reached our summit, the top of Worcestershire Beacon. Bacon sandwiches were consumed and I then suggested we head back before it got too dark. But no. The lads wanted another summit under their belts so we headed on to Sugarloaf Hill. Then it definitely was time to head back. Bracing but lovely is the best way to describe the late afternoon walk. Our reward on the return to Blackmore was another walk but this time to the Swan at Hanley Swan where dinner and drinks awaited and a good dads and lads chinwag (subjects being Facebook, Twitter, school, the Hobbit - you get the idea). Then back to the tent to watch a Top Gear special on the iPad (another little tradition) before bedding down for the night. It was pretty cold outside, worsened by the wind chill factor (3 degrees) but inside we were toasty with our thermal mats, Snugpak sleeping bags and 16 layers of clothing! But we all slept well, though a noisy owl did try to interrupt our visit to the land of nod at about 1am. But we'll forgive him that - this is more his home than ours. So now all that's left is for me to climb out of the sleeping bag and tent, get on with breakfast in the rain while the lads stay snug in their beds (funnily enough another tradition), before heading for home. Good thing these traditions. Posted bySimon McGrath XSimon McGrath Editor, Camping & Caravanning I've been a journalist for more than 20 years and a magazine editor for at least a dozen of them. I have a love of the great outdoors, not to mention camping in all its forms, which is a great way to get out there. But I don't just like admiring the countryside, I love getting active by sailing, trekking and walking, canoeing (when I get the chance) and mountain-biking.

Love this recipe! Made it once with strawberry lemonade, and crushed the cookies. It was tart but tasty, although the cookies needed a glue. Made it with Welch's Strawberry Breeze juice and exactly as the recipe called for, and it was delish. If you freeze long enough, it doesn't soften easily (unless its 100 degrees!). Will be making it again tonight with oreos, and may try raspberries or whatever juice/fruit combo my grocery store has. Wonderful. Can't seem to get enough!
taste was great and looked great but as soon as taken from freezer it softens to quickly
This was very easy to make and it was a big hit with everybody that tried it!

The Raven ReturnsWritten by on April 10, 2012 Contributors: Jo Jackson
STYLE. Countless hot rods have been built in chicken coops over the years. However, few are as sleek or as beautifully constructed as the '50s dreamboat you see here. Clearly, this was no ordinary chicken coop, and Arthur Bentas is no ordinary farmer. A genuine Yankee craftsman, he fabricated the Raven over a nine-year stretch, largely from scratch. The Chelmsford, Massachusetts, chicken coop was the same, special place wherein Arthur and his brother operated the Bentas Bros. Co., makers of the Kavalla Kart, a well-known machine in New England and elsewhere during the huge karting fad of the late '50s and early '60s.
Starting this project in 1950, Arthur based the Raven on a '39 Dodge chassis salvaged from the family farm's scrap heap. (The car had been rolled years earlier.) The L-head six came from a new-model '50 Dodge, as did the rest of the drivetrain, including a three-speed manual gearbox. Arthur designed his own straight-pattern, column-shift linkage, while the hydraulic-clutch setup was assembled using a slave cylinder from a North American P-51 Mustang. Over this framework, Arthur fabricated his two-place body, splicing together Kaiser, Chevy and LaSalle panel sections with a good bit of his own, handformed sheetmetal. Except for the dashpanel and one-piece, lift-off top, which Arthur molded in fiberglass, the Raven is real steel.
Sports cars were a brief trend on the kustom-show scene in the late '50s, usually employing fiberglass kit bodies like those from Almquist and Devin. All-steel cars were rare, especially coachbuilder-quality efforts like this one. The Raven was featured in HOT ROD in the Nov. '59 issue and in the Mar. '60 issue of Custom Cars, one of Petersen Publishing's pocket-sized "little magazine" titles. Arthur collected more than 25 First Place show trophies, including Best Custom at the '59 NHRA National Champion Custom Car Show. (Yes, NHRA took a brief stab at custom car show promotion.) That big event, held in support of the U.S. Nationals at nearby Detroit Dragway, was housed in the old Artillery Armory on 8 Mile Road.
In 1961, Arthur reluctantly parked the Raven, a victim of defective plating: The chrome work on the handformed bumpers and rocker panels turned bad and, at the time, Arthur didn't have the money to have it redone. He always intended to go back and restore the Raven, but as so often happens, life got in the way as Arthur tended to his Honda motorcycle dealership and other pursuits. The story of the Raven might well have ended there if not for a 10-year-old kid named Joe Germann. You know how it is: We love most what we love first. Arthur and Joe's dad were best friends, and in 1959, the little gearhead got to take a ride in the Raven. It was only one ride, but he never forgot it. Today, grown-up Joe operates Motorhead Extraordinaire, a company that outfits collector garages and pro shops with premium cabinets and fixtures. He's also done some cars of his own, including a vintage Falcon Funny Car. But he always kept one eye on the Raven. Over the years, he and Arthur often talked about restoring the car. One day in 2007, Arthur, now in his eighties, said, "Joe, I want you to have the Raven." The car's new home was just a half-mile away.
The subsequent restoration was relatively straightforward. Fortunately, the car had enjoyed a safe, dry nest for its 46-year nap and was complete and largely intact. Of course, all of the chrome had to be replated. Two cylinders were eaten away by rust, so the engine was replaced with another Dodge six. Joe completed the car in time for a return trip to Detroit for the '09 Autorama, where the Raven won First in class. Here, Joe also unveiled the restored Raven to Arthur, giving them both a thrill. "Since then, we've been putting a few miles on the Raven, taking Arthur for rides and to a few local shows," Joe says. "Imagine, I get to drive Arthur in the same car he gave me that ride in, 50 years ago. How cool is that?"
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
Arthur gave restorer Joe Germann 4 gallons of 50-year-old, double-black lacquer with the car, but Joe decided it was too old to risk using. Instead, Joe laid on 10 coats of Ditzler single-stage lacquer, the real stuff. "We spent a full week color-sanding and buffing," Joe says.That shed in the background is not the same one in which Arthur Bentas constructed the Raven, but it is much like it, Joe says. Dual exhausts exit through the bumpers, while the taillamp lenses are '56 Desoto.The seat frame and instruments are Studebaker, year unknown. Arthur molded the custom dash in fiberglass and cast the gauge bezels in magnesium (!). The steering wheel is a safety-dished '56 Fairlane item; Ford called the feature "lifeguard design."The tiny trunk compartment contains only a first-aid kit (ubiquitous in '50s show cars), the fuel filler, and a pair of emergency flashers that become visible with the lid opened.To create the unique headlamp treatment, Arthur floated agricultural sealed-beam units in the fenders, while the bezels were formed from stainless angel-food-cake pans borrowed from his mother's restaurant.Fifty-two years after his first ride, here's Joe doing his favorite thing: taking the Raven for a cruise through the Massachusetts countryside.Here's the Raven at the '59 NHRA Artillery Armory show with a new friend, an unidentified show hostess. Arthur and the Raven made a number of friends in this manner, Joe believes.
Arthur looks over the original 230ci six. According to the Nov. '59 HOT ROD feature, he spent $7,200 building the car--more than a new Cadillac at the time.Some '51 to '53 Kaiser contours are barely visible in the hood and front fenders. The windshield is a cut-down Kaiser piece, as well. The rest comes from the eye and hand of Arthur Bentas, shown behind the wheel in 1959.
