Optimism surrounds intermodal outlook
November 18, 2010
Regardless of the raw data, which largely points to a slowly moving economic recovery, one thing which cannot be overstated is the better-than-good run intermodal is on these days.
That was made abundantly clear at this week's TransComp in Ft. Lauderdale. In my meetings with providers and listening in on sessions with shipper panels, all signs point to intermodal being prominent in shippers' transportation spend and mix to varying degrees.
Two reasons for this are likely things you have heard before or read on this Web site perhaps. They include being green and a good corporate citizen along with hedging against a highly anticipated truck driver shortage with CSA and new HOS rules waiting in the wings, which saw a projected 10 percent reduction in capacity in 2011 being bandied about. Another reason is a potential hike in diesel prices, which are up roughly a cumulative dime per gallon in just the last two weeks.
Is that 10 percent projection too high or too low? Clearly, it is too early to tell. But it will have an impact on how shippers go about moving freight and factor into decisions when it comes to modal shifts on a contractual and spot market basis.
That said, it is likely good news for IMCs and truckload carriers that play in that space, and, of course, those on the brokerage side, too.
Even with a relatively anemic economic recovery occurring, domestic intermodal is showing strength in a major way. That is more than clear if you happened to see the recently-released third quarter Market Trends report from the Intermodal Association of North America.
The big takeaway of that report: domestic intermodal loadings at 1,591, 227 were the highest ever recorded in a single quarter in the history of the Market Trends report. Think about that for a second. It is sort of crazy, considering we are still very much in the weeds when it comes to the economy.
Why did this happen with domestic intermodal in the third quarter? One reason is that domestic container shipments continuing to outpace the overall economic recovery in conjunction with intermodal shipments gaining share over other modes of freight transportation, according to IANA.
"Domestic activity is off the charts right now, especially for domestic containers of North American origin and termination, and are up over previous high points from 2008 and 2006," said Tom Malloy, IANA VP of member services, when we talked about the report a few weeks back. "This is a good story. Had there been more containers [available] there likely would have been increased domestic container activity. This means equipment managers are doing a much better job of managing load-to-load churn, which is key for the companies that own them and the manager that runs them in order to maximize revenue opportunities for these pieces of equipment on an annual basis."
And while domestic intermodal is going great guns, international intermodal is growing at an even faster clip—it was during the third quarter anyhow, with 28.1 percent annual growth, according to IANA. This marks the second time since the second half of 2006 that international topped domestic containers.
At a time when terms like "cautious optimism" and the "new normal" are vying to become new ways of describing the state of our economy, intermodal is clearly doing its best to change that conversation to one with terms like "healthy recovery" and "major rebound." Now, that won't happen soon probably, but when it does there is a strong chance we will look at what intermodal is doing now and perhaps point to it as the beginning of when things started to get good…again.

Welcome to Detroit mercy Law Academics
Our curriculum is designed to integrate theory, doctrine and practice to produce graduates who are practice ready. We achieve this through a layered approach to professional education, which starts with the theoretical and doctrinal foundations of the law in the first year. Moving into the subsequent years of training, more advanced doctrinal courses expose students to a wider body of law and to other legal systems through our array of international courses. Students are expected to take at least one course exposing them to another legal system. Students also have the opportunity to explore particular topics in depth with a variety of seminars. These seminars, as well as the writing assignments in the upper level required courses, will hone writing skills and allow students to develop a work product portfolio. Moving toward completion of their degrees, all students will complete one clinic and three credit hours of law firm program courses that take their theoretical and doctrinal training and put it to the service of a client in a real or simulated case.
A student at our law school will:
- engage in live-client representation or related practice
- participate in sophisticated simulations
- develop a portfolio of written work product
- develop a fidelity to ethical standards
- understand the importance of the global community in the practice of law
- learn to serve others and
- be exposed to the School's Jesuit and Mercy identity in ways that promote discussions about the intersection of faith and law

Columbia, SC (WLTX) - Add another "first" in program history to USC's list.
The Gamecocks have had their highest-ever finish in the final college football polls.
USC wound up 7th in the USA TODAY Sports/Coaches poll, and 8th in the Associated Press. That's a spot higher than their finish at the end of last season.
"I'm very proud of our team and what we accomplished this season," said head coach Steve Spurrier in a written statement. "We are obviously thrilled to be ranked one spot better than we were last year and the highest in school history. Much of the credit goes to our seniors, especially the leadership provided by our captains - D.J. Swearinger, T.J. Johnson, Justice Cunningham and Shaq Wilson - which was instrumental in our success. We lose a lot of outstanding players but have a good nucleus returning for next season," continued the Head Ball Coach. "Our goals will be just as high. Our No. 1 goal is to win the SEC Championship and we'll try to accomplish that next season."
USC ended the season with an 11-2 record. It was the second-straight season the Gamecocks won 11 games, after having never won that many in program history.
The team also beat Clemson for the fourth straight year, the first time they'd done that since the early 1950s. They also defeated Georgia for the third straight time, which is the first time that had happened in that rivalry.
USC has recorded the most wins in two- (22), three- (31) and four- (38) consecutive seasons in school history.

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction & R40 Live Tour
Things couldn't get any better for Rush fans. On April 18, 2013, Rush was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! After their successful Clockwork Angels Tour, Rush released the R40 box set to commemorate the band's 40th anniversary, featuring live footage and previously unreleased material.

About Rush
From small-town band to worldwide sensation, Rush, the best-selling Canadian rock band in history, is back on tour, and Rush Tickets are on sale right now! Schoolmates Jeff Jones, John Rutsey, and Alex Lifeson formed Rush in Toronto back in 1968. After several lineup changes, the current inception of the band with front man Geddy Lee, guitarist Alex Lifeson, and drummer John Rutsey (replaced by Neal Peart in 1974), solidified and their first single "Not Fade Away" was released. Record companies were slow to react so the band formed their own label "Moon Records" to produce their debut eponymous album in 1974, which received comparisons to Led Zeppelin. The single "Working Man" got regular play on Canadian radio stations and was released in the U.S. by Mercury Records. By 1974, Rush tickets went on sale for a concert with headliners Uriah Heep and Manfred Mann increasing their exposure.
Drummer Neal Peart would assume the role of lyricist from Geddy Lee and write the band's first tale in the forms of "Fly By Night" (1975) and the heavier "Caress of Steel" (1975). Rush tickets sold below expectation that year due to the strong deviance from the band's original bluesy style. Becoming more and more immersed in hard rock, Rush would ignore their record label's pleas to produce a more digestible album and release 2112, which has largely been considered as their breakthrough album. The following Rush tour sold out of Rush concert tickets almost immediately and resulted in the live album, All the World's a Stage.
Since then, the band has released fifteen albums, seven of which (including "Moving Pictures") have topped Canadian and US charts. To date, Rush is considered the most successful Canadian hard rock band and have received a range of awards including an induction into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Juno Award for Artist of the Decade (80s). Rush is known for perfectly recreating their studio albums during Rush concerts with the use of large range of digital samplers making Rush tickets one of the most highly regarded concert tickets available.
Rumors have been circulating that Rush will release their 19th, full-length studio album, "Clockwork Angels," in 2011. The rumors were further confirmed by Lifeson who stated to The Globe and Mail that the band had already written six songs with projected Spring 2011 release date. In addition, Rush announced the upcoming Time Machine Tour featuring the band playing "Moving Pictures" in it's entirety - will the band play tracks off of their new album? See for yourself with some Rush tickets to the Time Machine Tour!

Hi, I need to migrate accounts and mail from Zimbra 7.1.x on RedHat EL 4 64-bit to Zimbra 7.1.x on RedHat EL 5 64-bit.
I was able to retrieve the LDAP "Bind password" from the old server...
...but I'm not sure what I should enter for the "LDAP search base" so as to copy everything. I tried (zimbraMailAddress=*) but I get an error...Code:

I have tried both an SSL and non-SSL connection.Code:

By the way, I cannot simply copy the /opt/zimbra/ folder to the new server because it has a different hostname and ssl certificate, and upgrading from RedHat 4 to RedHat 5.

Closed and Inactive Depression Studies
- Supportive Expressive Therapy versus Treatment as Usual for Depression in the Community (CLOSED)
- What Sequence/Combination of Treatment for Depression is More Effective? (INACTIVE)
- Treatments for Depression Study (CLOSED)
Supportive Expressive Therapy versus Treatment as Usual for Depression in the Community (CLOSED)
Principal Investigator: Mary Beth Connolly Gibbons, PhD (NIMH funded)
This pilot study addresses an issue of high public health significance, namely the lack of treatment response in many patients with major depression. This pilot investigation is an effectiveness trial designed to evaluate whether supportive-expressive psychotherapy (SE) is more successful in relieving depressive symptoms than the psychotherapy normally provided by the community agency.
The specific aims of this study are to:
- Assess the feasibility (recruitment, procedures) of implementing a research study in the community agency,
- Assess whether extremely busy community-based providers can devote sufficient time to research,
- Calculate effect size estimates comparing treatment with SE to treatment as usual in order to plan a sample size for a larger National Institutes of Health R01 study,
- Evaluate the acceptability of the SE therapy to patients and providers in the community, and
- Pilot the use of community longitudinal databases as a means for conducting long-term follow-up evaluations of intervention trials in the community.
What Sequence/Combination of Treatment for Depression is More Effective? (INACTIVE)
Principal Investigator: Jacques P. Barber, PhD, ABPP (NIMH funded)
This pilot investigation is an effectiveness trial designed to evaluate whether psychotherapy and therapist feedback are as effective as medication augmentation strategies for people with a primary diagnosis of major depression who do not respond to acute treatment with medication in a community setting.
The specific aims of this study are to:
- Evaluate the feasibility of conducting a sequence/combination treatment study for adult depression in a community mental health center,
- Evaluate our ability to teach cognitive therapy to therapists working in the community mental health center and to evaluate their adherence to the tenets of the treatments with the patients seen in the community mental health center,
- Collect preliminary data examining the relative efficacy of pharmacotherapy followed by the addition of cognitive therapy vs. cognitive therapy followed by the addition of pharmacotherapy,
- Collect preliminary data concerning the acceptance of the two treatments and their sequencing/combination including examining retention rates in the two sequences of treatment,
- Calculate preliminary effect size estimates comparing the two sequences of treatments in order to plan a sample size for a larger National Institutes of Health R01 study, and
- Collect preliminary data concerning the cost of the two treatments and their sequencing/combination including examining retention rates in the two sequences of treatment.
Treatments for Depression Study (CLOSED)
Principal Investigator: Jacques P. Barber, PhD, ABPP (NIMH funded)
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of a short-term dynamic therapy, medication (SSRI/SNRI) + clinical management, and pill placebo + clinical management.
- Brief phone screen
- Diagnostic/medical evaluation
- 16 weeks of active treatment (weekly sessions)
- 4 month continuation of treatment (monthly sessions)
- 2 years of follow-up
Criteria for participation in the study:
- Age between 18 and 70 years of age
- Diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) lasting at least 2 weeks
- No history of bipolar disorder (manic depression)
STEP 1: Phone Screen
Initially, a brief phone screen will be conducted assessing the symptoms of depression, associated problems such as eating, sleeping, drinking, or relational problems, any previous or current treatments, other mental health problems, and pertinent physical/health concerns. If treatment through the study seems appropriate, an appointment will be scheduled, typically within 2 days.
STEP 2: Intake Evaluation
Prior to entering the study, all potential participants undergo an extensive diagnostic, medical, and physical evaluation. The complete evaluation lasts 4-5 hours and is scheduled over two days, one week apart. The evaluation involves a comprehensive interview in which the symptoms, severity, and length of the depression as well as other potential mental health disorders such as anxiety problems, sleeping or eating difficulties, drug or alcohol use, relationship conflicts, and psychosis are assessed. Each potential participant will also meet with a psychiatrist to review the person's medical and health history. Any health or medical problems identified as potentially conflicting with treatment (particularly use of the assigned medication) will be discussed with the person and appropriate referrals for assessment or treatment made.
STEP 3: Treatment
Following completion of the Intake, the participant will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment conditions. Participants will receive:
- 16 weeks of antidepressant medication (SSRI/SNRI) + case management followed by 4 months of continued treatment, OR
- 16 weeks of Supportive-Expressive psychotherapy (during the first 4 weeks sessions are twice a week) followed by 4 months of monthly sessions, OR
- 16 weeks of pill placebo control + case management followed by 4 months of treatment with an antidepressant medication (SSRI/SNRI).
Active Phase
An appointment for the first treatment session will be made within one week of assignment. Treatment continues weekly for 16 weeks. Each medical case management session will last approximately 20 minutes and will include a review of the patient's symptoms and side-effects, answer questions, and offer support and encouragement. Each therapy session will last approximately 50 minutes and will include a discussion of the major problems with which the patient is dealing. Participants in the medication/pill placebo conditions will remain blind as to which pill is being given.
Continuation Phase
Following completion of the first 16 weeks of treatment, the blind regarding drug treatment will be broken. Participants assigned to the active drug treatment condition will continue taking antidepressant medication (SSRI/SNRI) and have monthly case management visits for 16 weeks. Participants assigned to the pill placebo condition will begin treatment with an antidepressant medication and have weekly case management visits for 16 weeks. Participants assigned to psychotherapy will continue monthly sessions with the treating therapist.
STEP 4: Follow-Up
All patients, regardless of treatment assigned, will be followed for two years after completion of the active and continuation phases of the study. Follow-up assessments will be scheduled at 3-month intervals and will last approximately 1-2 hours. Follow-up appointments will include a brief diagnostic interview and completion of self-report questionnaires.

Hey - cool idea! I've been seeing a lot of "serious" stuff, and it's great to see something this "out there". I like you're ideas - flying sharks are a great idea ^_^ I'd love to help out in any way I can, but a couple questions:
1) what style are you looking for? Smooth/clean vector? Sepia-tones? Old-style? Hand-drawn? 3D? Maybe post an example map in the style(s) you're interested in.
2) do you want sketches of the different encounter types shown on the map?
3) do you have names for this stuff already, or do you mind if I throw a couple on there?
4) how "serious" is this is? Are you looking to do something in the line of Conan, or more like Terry Pratchett? That can affect the names (the difference between Draggydska and DragonSpike, I guess)
Sounds like this could be really interesting! Oh, you said "D&D-like" - what system are you using? Or are you designing it?
So many questions! But I hope I can help!

Re: Hennessey Performance
I don't have a dog in this hunt as I don't have a V. I do pay attention to tuners. My $.02 is this: Hennessey will give you a quality tune. Personally, after watching him on TV with, I believe, Jay Leno, I was less than enthralled with him. He "borrowed" a customer's car and basically took it for a joy ride with Jay, laying rubber all over and generally driving it hard, way hard, without the owner's permission. This was recently on tv, and they even commented that it was a borrowed car. Not acceptable.

Re: Hennessey PerformanceYou guys need to learn how to read.
Re: Hennessey Performance
On their website Hennessey shows a 3 year/36,000 mile limited warranty as part of their package.
Not sure if that means you can just role into a Caddy dealer when a problem occurs with no questions asked. Probably not.
Having no opinion concerning aftermarket modification and knowing nothing about the Hennessey history, I must say that the responses by the Hennessey guys in this thread were rather arrogant with a total lack of contrition.
It's human nature to be forgiving and give second chances, but to come on here and pretty much say if you don't believe how good we are, F you, essentially reinforced the already negative opinion some people had.
No one is saying to come on here begging forgiveness, but a simple sincere acknowledgement of past sins would have gone a long way.
I will say that after reading this thread and hearing what was presented, my opinion is that the Hennessey guys are full of themselves and it seems like they feel they are doing you a favor by modding your car.

Re: Hennessey Performance
This kind of thread will come up from time to time and I have addressed these concerns in the past. And I am fine with addressing it again. And I do this to simply help clear up some things and am not expecting to get any business from forum members.
For a business to be successful over a long period of time, it takes a great product, creativity, good pr / marketing and solid, steady business management. For the first 10 years of my career in tuning cars I did the first 3-4 items very well. But at that time I did NOT surround myself with the staff and resources to make sure that we delivered in a timely manor. And it bit me hard in the 2000-2002 time frame. I was full of pride and made the big mistake of not taking care of customers. And I got spanked very hard for it. I re-grouped and made the decision that if I got a second chance that I would continue to do what I was good at but would surround myself with the best people who could make sure that our company delivered on every promise that I made. 10+ years later I am blessed to work with 30+ Hennessey team members who are dedicate themselves every day to build the best products and deliver the best service to our clients. Are we perfect, no. But if there is a problem, we take care of it. We run a real business and spend over $100k per year in insurance alone. If you send us your car it is fully insured up to $2m. Send your car to most other shops that do not have the resources to maintain garage keepers liability insurance and you are rolling the dice. I am not putting any other shops down, just giving you an example why our business has grown into one of the biggest and best in the industry.
Who on this forum has visited one of our facilities in Texas or CA? What did you see when you went there? How did our staff treat you? Most who want to comment about us have never met our staff, never visited our operations, never driven or owned one of our cars, etc. And that is OK and we dont expect to get everybody as a customer. But please give us a chance to show you that we run a great business and deliver great upgrades for the CTS-V.
That is about it and I am not going to play 20 questions about this and that over the past 22+ years of being in this business. When we do a media event such as Jay Leno, we usually bring the vehicles we own. If we bring a customer car, of course we get permission. If you want more about my story, download the Matt Farah The Smoking Tire podcast where I gave a lot more detail about the past. I think that will answer most questions about what happened 10+ years ago.
Thanks to the guys who are fair and open minded. Come and see us if you are ever near our shops in the Houston and SoCal areas. Thanks.
John Hennessey
Re: Hennessey Performance
Keep on keepin' on...
Re: Hennessey Performance
Well we've seen the work of Hennessey's "good" pr / marketing peeps within this thread...
Re: Hennessey Performance
Nicely put, John.
I would try to lead with that type of response in the future, versus what The Other Guy was typing earlier on in this thread.
John, I don't know you and I've never met you but if you walk this talk you have my respect. Thank you for input from the man himself.

WHEELING - On any other football team, Jaylon Brown would be the headliner. In this case, playing alongside two BCS-level recruits he sometimes gets overlooked.
Wheeling Park, however, is well aware of what Brown can do.
The junior speedster carried 24 times for 140 yards and four touchdowns and returned an interception 44 yards for a fifth score as highly touted St. Clairsville (1-0) debuted with a 47-27 victory against Wheeling Park (0-1) on Thursday night at Wheeling Island Stadium as part of McDonald's OVAC Kickoff Weekend.
Article Photos
St. Clairsville's Michael Ferns (10) looks for room to run as Wheeling Park's Geremy Paige (34) and Andrew Wheeler (54) close in during action of the first half of their game Thursday night.
''I wish I could put stilts in his shoes because if I could, there would be people all over the country knocking down our door for him,'' Red Devils coach Brett McLean said. ''I think that will happen for him eventually.
''He's a great football player. He's smart, he's fast and he's disciplined. Good things are going to happen for him.''
And for his team.
The Red Devils turned a 13-12 halftime deficit into a laugher by scoring twice in a little more than three minutes early in the second half. Brown went in from 7 yards and hauled in a 2-point conversion from Matt Kinnick to put St. Clairsville in the lead for good, then scored on a 2-yard run to make it 27-13 after a failed fake punt by the Patriots deep in their own end.
''A miscommunication - part of our youth,'' Wheeling Park coach Chris Daugherty said of the fake. ''For a lot of kids, that was their first night of football. It was a tough team to choose for their first fight of the year, but I was actually proud of most of the kids.
''We'll be a good football team and we'll be just fine.''
McLean said his ballclub showed nerves typical of a team that has such expectations early in the season. Once the Red Devils got their footing, it was smooth sailing.
''I think we came down here a little tight. I don't know how you can keep 16-17-year-olds from being that way, with what's on their shoulders right now,'' McLean said. ''They relaxed in the second half (and) they listened at halftime. I think our coaching staff did a good job adjusting in the second half.''
The Patriots had gouged the Red Devils with a deliberate, between-the-tackles running game that featured 92 first-half yards from Bryce Ingram and another 54 from Geremy Paige. But St. Clairsville tightened the reins and didn't allow another first down until deep into the fourth quarter.
''Give them credit early. We knew they had power and backs that run hard,'' McLean said. ''We made some little, minor adjustments in the middle and that made a world a difference in the game. We tackled better.''
St. Clairsville jumped out to a 12-0 lead in the first quarter. Michigan commit Michael Ferns caught a Kinnick pass on fourth-and-3 and rumbled 17 yards, carrying three Patriots the final 4 for the opening touchdown. After a pooch kick recovered by Dan Monteroso, the Devils went 38 yards, the last 7 on Brown's first score.
The Patriots took the ball 75 yards in 10 plays on their next possession. Ingram carried in from the 10 to make it 12-7.
The Red Devils were marching again when they lost a fumble that was recovered by Wheeling Park at its own 1. Quarterback Zach Phillips immediately went up top to Ingram who nearly broke it for a score, but was tripped up after a gain of 40. Eight plays later Eric Banks hauled in a 9-yard scoring pass from Phillips between two defenders.
That, however, is where the fun ended for Wheeling Park.
''St. Clairsville's a good football team and we hung in there for a half. We thought we probably should have been up more than a point at halftime,'' Daugherty said. ''I think it's a sign that we have a good football team, but we've got some youth and youth showed a little bit in spots. I thought special teams was a big thing - they did a nice job and we've got to get a little better there.''
Banks returned a kickoff 82 yards in the fourth quarter for the Patriots, and reserve running back Max Steinman added a 7-yard TD run.
Kinnick completed 10 of 15 for 117 yards, with Monteroso, who is going to Boston College, catching four for 35 yards.

Overflowing support
Politics | Crowds gather inside and out to rally around Mitt Romney at his final campaign stop in Virginia
FAIRFAX, Va.—If you arrived two hours early for Mitt Romney's final Virginia campaign event on Monday afternoon then you likely arrived several hours too late to get inside the Patriot Center at George Mason University.
While an estimated 10,000 people cheered for the Republican presidential nominee inside the Fairfax, Va., arena, an overflow crowd of several thousand were left outside when the fire marshal shut the doors.
"I got here at 7:30 this morning, and people started lining up before 8," a security guard blocking an arena entrance explained to a group of frustrated Romney supporters stuck on the outside looking in.
The event didn't start until after three o'clock in the afternoon, meaning some supporters arrived seven hours before the rally. Traffic clogged all the roads leading to the arena. Parking lots quickly filled up, forcing some supporters to park more than two miles away. Romney supporters, including a large number of women with young children, took long treks through neighborhoods and the university campus carrying Romney signs and American flags.
But even though that walk was in vain for thousands, few of them headed back to their cars. Instead they lingered in the grass surrounding the arena, huddling in groups under trees that still held a few fall leaves. Campaign staffers brought out temporary loud speakers.
Mark Maurer, 59, of Lorton, Va., was among those who stayed despite not getting inside for the rally. Wearing a T-shirt that read, "My faith and my politics cannot be separated," Maurer said he endured the crowd, the traffic, and the cold because he is worried about the future facing his seven grandchildren.
Maurer owns a safe and lock business, but he hasn't been able to afford to hire new employees for the last three years.
"Romney is going to take this thing," he predicted looking around at the overflow crowd in a part of Northern Virginia that went heavily for Barack Obama in 2008. "I don't think by a lot, but he will win."
When asked what he thinks will be the difference, Maurer, a former youth minister, answered, "The Christian vote." He said people in his church are behind Gov. Romney after holding an initial skepticism about his Mormon faith.
As Maurer talked, the rally inside began.
"This is really something special," Romney said. "I am looking around to see if we have the Beatles here or something to have brought you, but it looks like you came just for the campaign."
Wearing a rugby shirt with an American flag design, George Hayes, 53, listened to Romney's voice blare over the outside speakers. He said he attends a nearby nondenominational evangelical megachurch and admitted that Romney wasn't his first choice for the GOP nomination. He preferred Rep. Michele Bachmann, who often speaks openly about her faith.
But Hayes said he began to warm to Romney during his debates with President Obama.
"He would not back down from anything," Hayes said of Romney.
Hayes listed his values as a Christian as protecting the life of an unborn child, traditional marriage, and religious liberty. He believes Romney is the candidate who will preserve those values.
"And they are under attack," he added.
Inside the arena the crowd shouted "one more day." The crowd outside joined the cheer.
"We are not just voting. We are praying for this," said Bonnie Speakman.
Speakman said she is concerned about the way the Obama administration handled the consulate attack in Benghazi, Libya. She is disappointed that the media is not focusing more on the attack, and she is worried that the complete story concerning the security precautions the Obama administration did and didn't take won't come out until after the election.
"I feel like we left them behind," she said of the four Americans killed in Libya.
Inside the arena Romney criticized Obama for his healthcare plan, a national deficit that has doubled, and for failing on his promise to cut the nation's unemployment rate to 5.6 percent.
"He cared more about the liberal agenda … than he did the economy," Romney said. "The president thinks more government is the answer. It's not. More good jobs. That's the answer."
Julie Jennings, 46, has been so caught up in the campaign that she took four of her five children, ages 4 to 13, to Romney's Fairfax rally. She thought maybe it would be educational for her children to see a potential future president. They didn't get inside to get a glimpse of Romney, but they stayed to hear his speech over the loudspeakers.
Jennings will volunteer at a polling place on Election Day. Her political engagement started after she became annoyed by the Democrats' accusation that Republicans are fighting a war on women.
"I just didn't get that," Jennings said. "I felt like, I was a woman, and I didn't see a war. I resented being lumped in that group. I kept saying, 'I can't be the only women in the country that feels that way.'"
Jennings searched online and joined a "Women for Romney" group on Facebook. The group has spent the fall encouraging one another and sharing statistics, studies, and articles that could be used to counter the argument that Republicans are against women.
"The best thing I think they can do for women is to create jobs," she said. "I would like to think we are intelligent enough to make our own decisions regarding things like contraceptives. I'm a big enough girl. Liberal women don't have the right to decide what all the women issues are."
Even though the group hasn't met in person, they've made plans to get together in Washington for the inauguration if Romney wins.
As the late afternoon sun set on this second day after the end of Daylight Saving Time, the temperature began to drop. Babies bundled in blankets cried. The event inside ended and the song "My Girl" blasted over the loudspeakers. The lyrics, "When its cold outside …" got a laugh from those outside.
But as thousands poured out of the arena, the overflow crowd outside, estimated by the fire marshal to be 3,000 people strong, remained. They began to congregate below a microphone that had been set up atop one of the arena's concrete porches.
Soon Romney and his wife, Ann, appeared before the microphone. Some in the overflow crowd hoisted their children onto their shoulders to get a better glimpse of the Republican nominee.
The Romneys seemed buoyed by the crowd. As a suburb of Washington, Fairfax seems to be safe territory for Obama. But this crowd may suggest otherwise. Indeed embedded among the throng are voting demographics that pollsters say Romney will need to pull out a victory.
Those include Christians like Maurer and Hayes who must be energized even if they didn't get their first choice candidate. And they include women like Jennings who is defying the liberal argument that women are under attack by social conservatives.
"This is so heartwarming, even on a chilly day," Ann Romney told the overflow crowd. "I think we might be neighbors soon."
The White House on 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. is just across the Potomac River.

The Art of a Woodburner
I have a good friend who loves woodburning as a hobby and I was amazed at how wonderfully rendered his pieces were. His name is Dave Hasse and he's been woodburning for quite a while. Being an art major in college myself, I could appreciate how much attention to detail it took for Dave to get the beautiful results that he does. The wood that the images are rendered on give the pieces that "natural outdoor" feel.
I recently asked Dave permission to put him into our blog and he kindly agreed. I asked him to share a little bit about himself and his hobby. I hope you enjoy Dave's work as much as i did.
" I was given a woodburning kit somewhere between the age of 8 and 12. I traced outlines of pictures provided in the kit. Later, I did them on my own, using pictures of animals, as I had always enjoyed nature. There were lapses of time when I didn't burn anything. A few were done in high school, but nothing much until I was in California . I used books and pictures of animals as references, and produced several. I later added commissioned portraits and lettering to the collection. Occasionally I would include color in the form of watercolor or colored pencil.
I've been using a basic woodburning tool from a craft store, but discovered that in the future, I'll have to use a hotter, more advanced tool to burn on a wider variety of wood. I have used basswood so far, which is also recommended for carving. The tool comes with a variety of copper points, but I have mainly used a universal wedge point. The basswood comes in bark-edged planks and slices, or sheets, often used by cabinet makers. The surface is usually clean and knot-free.
The subject is drawn with pencil in detail before burned. Pieces can take ten to twenty hours. A UV coating can be brushed on to complete the piece. Sometimes I've brushed on instant coffee beforehand to act as a stain to keep the wood from looking unfinished. As I stated, animals and birds have been preferred subjects. It's difficult to choose a favorite, but I've always liked the one with the crown of thorns, the Cuban tree frog, and the two foxes playing."
Here are a few samples of Dave's work…

Just in time for Independence Day, this week President Barack Obama issued an executive order establishing an advisory council to improve the financial capability of young Americans.
From the executive order:
"To contribute to the nation's future financial stability and increase upward economic mobility, it is the policy of the federal government to promote financial capability among young Americans and encourage building the financial capability of young people at an early stage in schools, families, communities and the workplace. … Having a basic understanding of money management from an early age will make our young people better equipped to tackle more complex financial decisions in their transition to adulthood, when critical decisions about financing higher education and saving for retirement can have lasting consequences for financial security."
It's a noble government initiative, but I wonder how effective it will be. Last year the Government Accountability Office reported that the federal government spent about $68 million on 15 comprehensive financial literacy programs in fiscal year 2010. Since then at least four of those programs "have been defunded," according to the GAO report.
Schools, families, communities and the workplace have a better shot of getting through to young people. And some nonprofits, such as Junior Achievement, make it their business to teach kids how to succeed in the global economy. That particular organization has been around for more than 90 years and is still going strong.
Obstacles to wealth
Notice the executive order focuses on the importance of college financing and retirement planning for young people. A recent Fidelity Investments study found that 70 percent of the class of 2013 is graduating with debt, and the average debt load is $35,200, including all loans and credit card debt. Four out of 10 students would have made different decisions about their college planning if they'd known ahead of time how much college would cost, according to that study.
Such grads are not likely to prioritize saving for retirement because they'll have to spend a large portion of their income to pay down debt.
But they should contribute to their company's 401(k) plan -- at least enough to get the company match -- even if they are in debt. Every day it seems a new retirement survey affirms the terrible shape their parents -- baby boomers -- are in. Last week a lengthy report from the National Institute on Retirement Security titled "The Retirement Savings Crisis: Is it worse than we think?" revealed that more than 38 million working-age households own no retirement account assets whatsoever, based on an analysis of the 2010 Survey of Consumer Finances from the U.S. Federal Reserve. That represents 45 percent of households with earners of ages 25 to 64.
I was scared into investing, after listening to a presentation by two female brokers who warned that those who don't save for retirement will likely live out their old age in poverty. The sooner you start investing, they said, the more you can amass, thanks to the power of compounding earnings. I wish I'd heard that message when I was in my teens or early 20s so I could have acted on it sooner.
Your employer's role
Employers are beginning to grasp the important role they play in preparing workers for retirement. As a result of legislation passed in 2006, the majority of companies that offer 401(k)-type plans automatically enroll their workers into their plans. But the deferral rate is low -- typically 3 percent of pay.
Through their careers, boomers have had to muddle through the investment process on their own. As a result, most 401(k) participants -- 85 percent -- feel they are not saving enough and 6 out of 10 don't think they'll be able to maintain their standard of living when they retire, according to a study released Thursday by Bank of America Merrill Lynch. But things are starting to change.
"Companies are taking financial education and access to professional financial advice more seriously today," says Steve Ulian, managing director, institutional retirement and benefit services for Bank of America Merrill Lynch. "Since the economic downturn, we have seen through this research, and our day-to-day work with companies, that the majority of employers feel a greater responsibility to help employees meet their broader financial goals and needs."
Among workers under age 30, 55 percent contribute more than 5 percent, while just 8 percent contribute 3 percent or less, according to the study. That's encouraging news.
A new white paper by the Defined Contribution Institutional Investment Association recommends employers sets the initial deferral rate at 6 percent, and implement annual increases of 1 percent or 2 percent, up to a cap of 15 percent at minimum. If adopted widely, this would surely help Americans prepare for retirement.
It's also up to you to spread the word. You know some millennials? Implore them to save for retirement, even if they have other financial commitments.
Amassing money gives you options so that if you should find yourself laid off at 55, it might not be a crisis. Or if you discover you don't like your job after toiling 40 years in the same field, you can do something less lucrative but more fun since you will have a cushion.
Building a big nest egg from an early age ultimately gives you freedom. It may not be the type of freedom that our forefathers envisioned when they signed the Declaration of Independence, but it's a worthwhile goal nevertheless.

My weekend went by in a blink of an eye. I had to get a medical check-up for my internship on friday. The good news is that I don't not seem to have tuberculosis, the bad news is that I need to get a bloodtest done to determinate whether or not my hep-B vaccins were succesfull. My low bloodpressure causes me to faint everytime I have to geet a bloodsample taken. I'm a wuss.
Then I had this special drivers lesson on Saturday in which I and a few others practiced parking and other manoeuvres. It was so fun! You get this walkie talkie in your car and while you drive the instructor gives hints through his. I'll be taking one of those lessons again soon, haha.

Will Maria Sharapova miss out on defending her Aussie Open title? Maybe so.
The Russian glamazon has revealed via her Weekly Doodles that after 10 weeks of rehab in Arizona the pain in her balky shoulder remained and she underwent "minor arthroscopic surgery" in October to fix the issue. She has subsequently pulled out of the Hong Kong exo and could possibly miss the Aussie Open:
Hello Everyone!That sucks. I'm really looking forward to Shrieka's return for a variety of reasons, but it's better to be safe than sorry I guess.
I am finally back on the court hitting tennis balls again! It is such a relief to be out there enjoying every second of it.
Let me tell you how I got to this point. As you know from my last doodle, I went to see the top shoulder specialist in NY and he sent me to work with a shoulder rehab specialist in Phoenix, Arizona. I was in Phoenix working on my shoulder for 10 weeks. We were working hard on my strength and building up all the muscles around my shoulder. Since I can only do that for 2 hours a day, I also worked really hard on working on other parts of my body. Unfortunately after my 10 weeks of shoulder rehab, I started hitting and serving again and I still felt the same exact pain that I have had in my shoulder since March. I went back to NY to see Dr.Altcheck on October 14 and we went to plan B. On the morning of October 15 Dr. Altcheck performed a minor arthroscopic surgery that lasted 22 minutes on my right shoulder.
The procedure was successful and very simple. I left the hospital a few hours after the procedure and flew to my home in Florida for 3 days and then I flew back to Phoenix to start working on my shoulder. The 10 weeks of shoulder strength before the procedure really helped the shoulder heal quicker. Dr. Altcheck thought my recovery would be very fast and he was right. I had full range of motion after 14 days, after 6 weeks I was throwing a foot ball and after 8 weeks I was back on the court where I belong. I know this entire process has made me stronger and more hungry. I miss competing so much. I am trying to do everything possible to be ready for Australia, but I have promised my doctors, coach and family that I will not rush back. Since I only started practicing 16 days ago, I have only been able to practice so many hours at a time which is why I don't feel like I am ready to compete at a high level right now and this is why I need to pull out of the exhibtion in Hong Kong. But the great news is that we have taken care of the problem that has been bothering me so much over the last couple of years, and now is the time to get into what I call 'match shape'. I know my shoulder will be 100 percent by Australia, I just need to see if I have enough tennis training to be ready for that level. I want to thank all my great fans for their support, it meant so much to me during these tough weeks. I hope everyone has a great holiday.
I think she should still make the trip to Melbourne, though, if the shoulder is healed. The other lady ballers could be rusty + cold and Shrieka could make some noise (though that goes without saying of course.) You never know.
Stay tuned!

CDT is leading efforts to rein in the NSA and protect our fundamental privacy and free expression rights.
The National Security Agency (NSA) is collecting the telephony metadata of everyone in the United States. This mass surveillance program has been roundly criticized by companies, civil society groups, other government bodies, and many Members of Congress. Our bottom line is that bulk collection of all kinds of data by the government must end and we are fighting to make it stop.
After Congress failed to act in 2014, the new Congress has begun to debate ways to rein in the NSA. The most troubling authority under which mass surveillance is conducted is Section 215 of the USA PATRIOT Act, which is set to expire on June 1, 2015. CDT is advocating for major reform to Section 215 to end bulk collection of communications records. Full reauthorization is not an option. The re-introduced USA FREEDOM Act is the best current path forward for Section 215 reform. With the House passing the USA FREEDOM Act, the Senate needs to pass it or Section 215 sunsets.
This page includes key resources about the NSA surveillance programs and the reforms we are advocating.

We have a Working Ical Server in an Ubuntu Egroupware installation.
Since the Web Interface of the Egroupware "doesnt fit to our workflow" I am looking for a Desktop Client.
When i try to link the ical calendars into Zimbra Destop (https://XXX.org/egroupware/icalsrv.php/events.ics) it keeps telling me: "The URL is not reachable at the moment"
As far as i know the error could be that the calendars are password protected, since we dont want to change the password protection i have to find a way arround.
Any help is appreciated
Sorry for bad english

|MU Peace Studies Brings Drone to Campus
| Kyle Lahman
Staff Writer
According to peace studies coordinator Becca Creath, the model drone was intended to "spark a conversation" about the use of drones domestically and internationally. "The purpose of the model drone is partly to raise awareness about the fact that the U.S. government is using drones," she said. "We wanted it to be an opportunity to spark a conversation about how we use [drones] and why we use them."
According to the Hoosiers for Peace and Justice activist group, drones are used primarily for military purposes. The United States currently owns close to 7500 drones, most of which are deployed in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iraq to fight terrorism.
Even though drones played a major role in the killing of Libyan despot Muammar Gaddafi and various leaders of al Qaeda, their role in future operations is being questioned by activist groups. The fear is that drones kill too many innocent civilians because of their lack of precision.
While the use of drones in Pakistan and the Middle East has garnered international attention, Creath also wanted to emphasize that drones are used domestically. She pointed to the use of drones in the United States for surveillance and police work. "It seems likely that in the next 10 to 15 years, drones will be an issue that really affects our lives," she said.
From Creath's perspective, the model drone project accomplished its intended objective. Three classes dedicated class time to visiting the drone—two international politics classes and one first-year seminar—and many students took time out of their busy schedules to chat about the drone. "There was some pushback from the students," Creath said. "But this is a conversation where we need all voices."
The model drone was acquired through the Indiana Drone Project with the help of local organic farmer Cliff Kindy. Somewhat of a peacekeeping celebrity, Kindy has participated in missions in restless areas such as Iraq, the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. According to Kindy, the Indiana Drone Project is a collection of affinity groups that hopes to boost awareness about drones. Because one of the affinity groups is located in North Manchester, he was able to secure a drone visit.
Both Creath and Kindy stressed that drone operators still suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder despite operating from a remote location. This was an issue that hit close to home for Manchester's student body. According to Kindy, four students had friends or family members that operated a drone, and three of those suffered from post-traumatic stress.
The particular model that the Indiana Drone Project sent was an eight-foot model of the Reaper drone. An actual Reaper drone costs nearly $28 million and is 60 feet long; the model was a fifth of the size and a fraction of the cost. The model is well-traveled, having visited Indianapolis, Terre Haute, South Bend and Fort Wayne before coming to Manchester University.
Before the drone left North Manchester, the town had a chance to join in on the conversation when the drone appeared at the local farmer's market.

Trying to Do Good Deed Can Backfire
April 14, 2013
Musicians Brad Paisley and LL Cool J have learned that race relations are the third rail of the entertainment industry. Touch it, and you may get quite a jolt....
Tell this to some Black Comedians. They are making bundles of money.

Perpetuating racism in America is a cottage industry for black political activists who make fortunes by setting themselves up as vote brokers for the black vote. People like Al Sharpton and Jess Jackson have made careers screaming racism while demanding racism of their followers. There is no doubt that you can find people who hate others based on race but the idea that it is bound to one race is silly. Who was the last person you heard make a racial slur? Even in a small town in WV, we don't hear them often, or at all. But we can hear them constantly in the political/ entertainment industry. Racism will not end in America until we understand that racism is not just one race. It seems that black communities want to keep racism alive, otherwise there might be discussion about their own conduct, their views on family, views on living in a community might be discussed. No, its easier, lets just yell racism all the time, mindlessly.

I'm not a fan of either one of them and it's a good thing I am not. I would only be disappointed because these "stars" feel that it is their duty to project their opinions on their fans. I threw out my Springsteen collection because he campaigned for Obama. I liked his music and didn't know his politics until recently. I don't want to know if Paisley feels guilty about being white and I don't care if Cool J is angry because he was born black. Not my problem, not my reality. Slavery does not = racism. Two different things Racism.The belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, esp. so as to distinguish it as Prejudice or discrimination directed against someone of a different race based on such a belief. Slavery.A person held in servitude as the chattel of another. One that is completely subservient to a dominating influence. A device (as the printer of a computer). Education is the key to wiping out racism.

Pretty soon racism won't be an issue. Between inter racial marriage/co habitation resulting in the birth of mixed race children; we will eventually end up being a diluted brown race with no sense of pride in heritage for either race.

|Brittney Ferguson celebrates 20th; benefit under way
|Written by Brenda Johnson Brandt
It was a day of celebration for Brittney Ferguson and her family as Brittney marked her 20th birthday Tuesday, Jan. 27.
Life as she once knew it changed drastically for Ferguson when she was involved in an auto accident Sept. 25 in Laramie, Wyo., where she was a student at the University of Wyoming.
Now a rehab patient at Craig Hospital in Englewood, Brittney's progress is steady, but very slow.
Her mother Connie reported Monday that this past week was better than the previous one, as Brittney recovered from the dehydration that was making her very sick.
In fact, she was well enough to go out on her first outing to the Stock Show and Rodeo Wednesday, Jan. 21. "She did very well, and never cried all day. She seemed to enjoy it," said Connie.
One day last week, Brittney figured out how to disconnect her feeding tube and just eat it. Her mother joked that she couldn't imagine it tasted good, but Brittney seemed to think she was funny doing it.
Connie added Brittney was pretty tight and toned over the weekend, so she cried a lot. Monday, she did well with therapy and scooted herself around in a wheelchair, propelling herself with her left foot.
"We still don't have a way to communicate with her," said Connie, explaining their way of communicating with their daughter is that she screams, and they have to guess what it is that's bugging her. "It does get hard to take some days," admitted Connie.
Initially hospitalized at Medical Center of the Rockies in Loveland, Brittney suffered a fractured skull, multiple face fractures, broken ribs, a blown eye socket, fractured right ankle and foot wounds, among other traumas.
On Oct. 14, Brittney was moved to Kindred Hospital in Denver, and a month later she relocated to Craig Hospital in Englewood.
Her parents, Rance and Connie, as well as sister Amanda, a junior at HHS, have remained with her for the four months since her accident.
Correspondence can reach Brittney and her family at the following address:
Brittney Ferguson
Craig Hospital
3425 S. Clarkson St.
Englewood, CO 80110
Benefit raffle conducted
for Brittney and her family
Holyoke Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring a benefit raffle for the Ferguson family.
The raffle idea was initiated by staff and board at Highline Electric Association, where Rance Ferguson is employed as line superintendent.
There are three prizes in the raffle, including a half beef processed and two quarters of beef processed.
Tickets will be available until the drawing, which will be held at halftime of the boys' varsity basketball game between HHS and Caliche Thursday, Feb. 12 in the HHS gym.
A number of Highline employees, as well as Chamber businesses, have tickets available for purchase. For information, call Highline at 854-2236 or the Chamber office at 854-3517.
Connecting in a family way to the Fergusons, Highline is actively promoting the benefit for Brittney's family.
Highline board member Steve Oestman and Ron Oestman of Wray are donating the beef for the raffle. Additionally, Wray Meat Packing Plant is donating some of the processing and Chris Wisdom of Wray is donating feed.
Chamber director Mary Tomky noted any local organization interested in conducting a benefit raffle should contact the Chamber for information.

GRC Spending: Bucking the Trend?
Gordon Burnes 270004HVEW firstname.lastname@example.com | | 0 Comments | 212 Visits
We did an interesting survey at OPUS a couple weeks ago. We'll be publishing the results here next week, but one of the GRC topics that people have been talking about is whether GRC spending will decrease like most of the rest of the tech sector, or increase based on the very obvious need for better risk management in corporate America. Whether or not GRC spending increases next year will depend, of course, on the state of the economy, and a host of other issue that Brian Sommer discusses in a blog post this week at ZDNet.
OpenPages Survey Reveals Organizations Plan to Invest More in Risk Management in 2009

Risk Management and the G20
Gordon Burnes 270004HVEW email@example.com | | 0 Comments | 194 Visits
The G-20 met last weekend to discuss the state of the world's economy and coordination of economic policy. Perhaps the most significant output of the meeting were the pictures of the groups which very clearly illustrated that the world's financial system's major players have expanded beyond the tiny group of 7 countries that made up the initial G7. These emerging economies, like Brazil and China, made it very clear that the world's financial institutions — like the World Bank and IMF — must be governed more democratically.
From SOX to GRC: a CRO's Perspective
John Kelly 270004J7VQ email@example.com | | 0 Comments | 186 Visits
The ultimate goal for many GRC professionals is to arrive at a converged GRC program with a supporting technology platform. We often tell our customers that it is important to take a phased approach when planning an enterprise deployment of a GRC management solution and that they should set expectations and goals for each phase as their risk management program matures.
For instance, implementing an effective and non-disruptive Sarbanes-Oxley initiative can do more than just meet regulatory compliance. In fact, it can play a key role in moving to a successful GRC initiative. Eric Krell, a contributing writer to Business Finance magazine who focuses on GRC, wrote in a recent blog that
Eric recently interviewed Dun & Bradstreet's CRO Charles Pavlounis who concluded in Eric's blog that ERM success hinges on "getting SOX [compliance] to be something that is not disruptive, that is almost embedded in the core DNA of the company." To learn more about D&B's ERM program, look for Eric's interview with Charles and the D&B case study in the December issue of Business Finance.

Wilwood W4A 4 Piston Forged Aluminum Brake Caliper
Heavy Duty Stopping Power for Road or Track!
The competition technology that is integrated into Wilwood's W4A six piston forged brake caliper provides outstanding performance, durability and features a configuration design that allows widespread versatility! W4A brake caliper has a radial mount design, two options for piston volume, and a redisigned brake rotor diameter range from 12.19'' to 15.00'' which allows the W6A brake caliper the compatibility for just about every situation of competition duty stopping you need it to provide.
W4A brake calipers provide the pad wear performance advantages of differential bore pistons with the option for ultimate heat protection using Thermlock piston equipped models. Differential piston bores compensate for leading-edge mechanical loading and temperature variances across the pad face to reduce pad taper wear in sustained high temperature applications. Thermlock pistons block heat transfer from the pads and reduce temperatures in the caliper, fluid, and seals by up to 25% over standard stainless steel pistons. This is the go-to calipers for all types sustained hard braking competition cars.
Click Here for More Thermolock Piston Details
The W4A body is the product of FEA computer design and stress flow forging technology. FEA technology allows the designer to test the prototype in a computer environment to determine the optimal structural design within the dimensional parameters of the component. Stress flow forging produces a part with the internal grain structure of the metal aligned in the direction of the flow of the body contour. The results are a caliper with superior clamping efficiency and ultimate strength against fatigue, stresses, and distortion under load.
The performance of the W4A is enhanced with SRS bridge plates, snap-ring locked pad retainer pins, recessed two-piece bleed screw assemblies and dampen mounted fluid transfer tubes. SRS bridge plates eliminate all bridge wear caused by pad gouging. The spring-loaded action of the plates also eliminates pad rattle. Snap ring clips lock the pad pins in place to provide positive retention and allow easy service without caliper removal. The bleed screws are recess mounted for protection against impact and debris. The fluid tubes are dampen mounted to protect them from fatigue or damage from vibration or debris. Calipers are anodized in high luster black to protect from corrosion and maintain their high-tech appearance.

Students win both state, New England outdoors writing contests
LINCOLN - When Erika Brown talks about fishing, she could be talking about her passion for writing as well.
"It's relaxing, it gives you time to think. It gives you a different outlook on life and the world," she said Friday. Usually not much of an outdoors person, she drew inspiration in the quiet of nature while fishing with her sister and another relative at Moore Dam last year.
This fall, when she saw the notice of the New England Outdoor Writers Association's 2013 Youth Writing Contest posted on her classroom wall, she reached back to the day of fishing.
After writing the best essay in the senior (grades 9-12) division for the state, Brown, a freshman at Lin-Wood High School in Lincoln, went on to win first place overall for New England. Alysse Cleasby, a sixth-grader at Chichester Central School, wrote the winning essay in the junior (grades 6-8) division for New Hampshire, and first place overall for New England.
Students were asked to write an essay of not more than 500 words on an outdoor activity that increased enjoyment and knowledge of nature and natural resources.
Dr. Harold Lyon, board member of NEOWA and chair of the contest, said he is very proud of the young writers, and the English teachers who encouraged them, Kate Dockham of Chichester Central School and Heather Krill of Lin-Wood High School. Lyon visited the two schools and presented the winners with certificates for the contests, and two checks each, $50 each for the state contest, and $100 each for the New England. He also gave each teacher a red rose "to acknowledge their inspiring influence behind the scenes."
Brown and Cleasby will have their essays published in a future issue of North Woods Sporting Journal (sportingjournal.com) as part of the prize package.

Rural Development, an agency of the United States Department of Agriculture, is bringing its Mutual Self-Help Housing program to Holyoke, giving potential homeowners the opportunity to move into a brand new home with "sweat-earned" equity by working with other families to help build their own homes as a type of down payment.
A crowd of about 300 people from throughout the region attended the Cinco de Mayo Fun Fest 2003 at the Phillips County Fairgrounds on Saturday, May 3.
Chandra Kadlechek, who comes to Holyoke from Stratton, Neb., was hired as manager of the Holyoke Swimming Pool, beginning May 16.
Holyoke fifth-graders have been studying about old-time one-room country schoolhouses and got to experience that concept last week when they dressed in outfits like those that might have been worn 100 years ago and held class in a "one-room schoolhouse" in the basement of First National Bank.
Holyoke Spanish teacher José León was recognized May 5 at the UNC Foreign Language Day when he received an outstanding teacher award.
The May 24 issue of the Holyoke Enterprise will mark the advent of a new process by which the Enterprise will be printed.

Hi All,
I am very excited about using Zimbra, and am currently using the freeware version of Zimbra Desktop 7.1.1 (build 10917). When installing the program, I specifically selected the drive that has the most space, thinking that's where the Zimbra data would reside as well.
However, after trying to solve/troubleshoot constant sync failures, I realized that Zimbra had literally gobbled up all of my C: drive space under Windows XP-Pro 32-Bit, located here: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Zimbra\Zimbra Desktop
My question is simple:
How do I move/define the default "data storage" directory??????
Note I also tried to do some research, which mentioned "Configuration" changes but I don't have a "Mail" icon in the Control Panel, etc. so none of that appears to be relevant...

I am attempting to troubleshoot a sync error. The send/receive process for Zimbra returns a Failed result with Unknown Failure.
I have been able to generate log files and send them off to my hosting provider, so they are investigating, however they are not prepared to support any add-ins that might be causing the problem.
I am evaluating an Outlook Add-In "Ceptara Organizer for Outlook" Organizer for Outlook 2007 & 2010 | Ceptara which I think may be what is causing the problem.
What I would like to be able to do is try to find out what is causing the sync failure and provide that information to Ceptara to see if they can help me with the issue. (Perhaps even setup a Zimbra profile in their product as they have one for Kerio.)
So if anyone can help me trouble shoot these log files that would be appreciated.
Please let me know what you need me to post in order to get started.
I have disabled the add-in and I still have the sync issue. Nothing is being reported as a sync error message/item in my mailbox.
This is the 2nd time it has happened. I had to delete my last profile an sync it up again.
I will be doing some more testing on this and will post any results I find.
