I am trying to install zimbra proxy, and it will not stop looking to bind with this user. Where does this user come from? I am simply trying to install Zimbra Proxy and can't because it cannot connect to our LDAP with " uid=zimbra,cn=admins,cn=zimbra "
Could someone explain this? I thought a proxy would just be a frontend for the Webmail interface..Why does it need any LDAP information?
And where would I find documentation on provisioning uid=zimbra,cn=admins,cn=zimbra in my LDAP? Because I highly doubt uid=zimbra,cn=admins,cn=zimbra comes as a standard part of my LDAP install..
I might be just not understanding this, but really, where does uid=zimbra,cn=admins,cn=zimbra come from? and how do I create that in my ldap? Thanks..

my brother has bad shoulders and can't pull a lot of weight on his bow. he has it crank down and its shooting a 400 gr arrow at around 235fps. I figure its producing about 49 ft/lbs of KE. is this enough for elk? he's using montec G5 heads

One of my sons killed a bull his first year archery hunting at age 12 shooting a 50# bow with a really short draw lenght due to his size at the time. I think it was around 235 fps but never shot it thru a chrony.
I had reservations on buying him a tag but decided if he used a cut on impact (two blade) broadhead and held out for a perfect broadside shot at 20 yards or less he would be good to go. It worked out perfect! He double lunged a bull at 7 yards and he only went 25 yards and was dead.
I think your brother would be sitting a little better with his set up and would be just fine out to 30 yards as long as he chooses the proper broadhead that will provide good penetration. That is my opinion anyhow based on a personal experience. Good luck!
I can remember when 215 fps was fast for a compound....and they killed lots of critters. Use a cut-on-contact head (Stinger, VPA, etc) and you'll have more than enough.
B&C / P&Y Official Measurer
I am shooting 250fps and was kinda wondering the same thing. I am shooting axis 340 with 100 gr broadheads. It is because of my short draw length.
Like was said before use a good cut on contact 2 blade head and with proper shot placement and itll do the job more than adequately.
The beatings will continue until morale improves.
I may have the same problem.. I had shoulder surgery in April. I know woman who are shooting heavier draw weight than me.. THats ok though, I dont think she can hit anything.
like has been said before use a two blade broadhead, limit your shots to shorter yardages, and broadside shots and you should do fine. I shoot a two blade Magnus Stinger, just because I like the penetration I get with them.
Shoot STR8
That set up will work fine. I used to shoot something similar and never had an issue.
People in SUV's and suburbs will kill more game animals than a man with a bow, ever could.
Not as issue. If anything, shoot a heavier arrow, or shoot 125's.

Born on Dec. 21, 1966 in London, England to actress and political activist Shirley Douglas and movie star Donald Sutherland, Sutherland saw his parents divorce when he was just three years old. Named after writer-director Warren Kiefer, who helped his father with his breakthrough role in "Castle of the Living Dead" (1964), Sutherland began acting at age nine, appearing in a Los Angeles production of "Throne of Straw." He later moved with his mother to Toronto, where as a child actor, he honed his craft in local stage productions.

By using this site you agree to the use of cookies for analytics, personalised content and ads. Read more
Protecting your online safety, security and privacy.
These terms apply to Skype's consumer software applications and products. They do not apply to the Skype for Business product and online service offered by Microsoft Corporation.
Read the latest about how we're working to make Skype as secure as possible.
If you need to report any suspicious behavior or security problems then please contact us.
If you have found a security vulnerability in any of Skype clients or online services, please follow the instructions at this link: Report a Computer Security Vulnerability.
Choosing a secure password to access your Skype account is crucial. Hackers use lists of common passwords to access accounts (not only on Skype but across all websites). It is therefore critical that you use a strong, unique password.
So how can we balance good passwords that need to be long and complex with the ability for a human to remember them without writing them down?
There are a number of ways, so why not try some of the following techniques:
Use a sentence as your password Passwords are limited to 20 characters but you can create a difficult password to crack by using a short sentence. Include numbers in your passwords, so instead of "MyReallyGoodPassword" try "MyR3allyG00dPassw0rd".
Include uppercase and lowercase "mypassword" is not as secure as "MyPaSSworD" so add in a few capitalisations.
Make the password personal to you Your password is something that only you should know and not something that someone else could easily find out. For instance, a password that was the name of your dog or a favourite movie are something that others might know. With the advent of social networking a lot of personal information is available about you, so try to think of something that only you know. How about looking outside and describing something you see "The River Flowing!" or "A Yellow caR".
Unique password per site We all have large numbers of websites that we have to remember our username and password for but not all sites are created equal. Whilst we at Skype care passionately and invest heavily in your security, unfortunately not all sites do. So use passwords that are unique to each website you use in order to prevent any compromise of those other sites from affecting your Skype account.
Strange and special characters Including in your password punctuation, symbols and other non standard characters all help to increase the strength of your password. Take care with spaces however, and only use them in the middle of your password and not at the beginning or the end. For example, "I Really L0ve Skype$" and "^ have a $strong password!!"
Change your password regularly A password should be considered to live for only a short period of time. Keeping the same password for many years is not recommended but equally changing it every day might result in making it hard to remember! So try to change your password as often as practical, for instance a couple of times a year.
And remember, if you ever suspect your password has been compromised sign into Skype and change it immediately. Change your password.
Viruses can damage your computer and collect your private data, regardless of whether you are using Skype or not. Avoid this by following these tips:
Most viruses these days come in the form of email attachments so don't open attachments from people you don't know, or suspicious-looking attachments even from people you know. When in doubt, always contact the sender to confirm the email is legitimate, even if it looks harmless (such as an e-card or funny picture) at first sight.
Visit InSafe or Get Safe Online for more information on using the internet securely.
We'll let you know whenever a new, improved version of Skype becomes available. You can also manually check for any updates: on a Windows PC go to Help > Check for Updates; or if on a Mac go to Skype > Check for Updates…
Always be very wary of any emails pretending to be from Skype saying a security update is available - we will NEVER do this.
Some people are very private, whilst others take to the limelight like ducks to water. Skype keeps both kinds happy as our privacy levels allow users to either keep a low profile, or meet new people in the vast Skype network.
To update your settings on a PC, open Skype and click Tools > Options > Privacy. On a Mac it's Skype > Preferences > Privacy. Here you can set your preferences for receiving communications.
We recommend you do not authorise people whom you do not know and/or do not want to talk to.
Setting your Skype profile is easy. Your profile acts as your calling card to millions of other people on Skype. You can add your birthday, gender, phone numbers and location - all of which help other people find you.
Your email address is securely stored by Skype and not shown to anyone else. It is used solely to allow friends and family or business colleagues to search for you in the directory.
Things to remember
Always ensure you trust a website or merchant before giving your credit card information to sites that claim to be reselling Skype products.
You can buy Skype Credit and subscriptions directly from the Skype website. You can also buy accessories safely from the Skype shop.
Never reply to emails that request your credit card details, password or other data. Skype will NEVER request such data by email. Our Customer Support agents may request your payment/order details or ticket tracking numbers for streamlined troubleshooting, but they will never request your credit card data or password.
You can report illegal resellers or parties misrepresenting themselves as Skype by sending an email to us.
Phishing is the process whereby a malicious third party attempts to trick you into providing information that they shouldn't have. For instance, someone could send you an email pretending to be from Skype and ask you to click on a link asking you to sign in and check your account.
When you click this link you are then directed to a website that may look like Skype; however, it is being controlled by a third party and when you enter your Skype Name and password they store this information and use it for malicious purposes.
So how do you defend against phishing? Vigilance. Whilst SPAM filters and other filters are increasingly effective there is always going to be some emails that get through. But by increasing your awareness and alertness in responding to or acting upon those emails or malicious sites you can use simple steps to defeat their attempts.
Emails that have a false sense of urgency, for instance "Unless you click this link your Skype account will be disabled", or "Your account has been compromised, click here to view details" are both examples of asking you to act in haste without verifying the source.
If an email is asking you to perform an action on your account, don't follow the links on the email but type skype.com into your browser and go to your account directly from the Skype website.
If you arrive at a website, through a link or some other such redirection ensure that it says skype.com in the URL and does not contain within the web address additional characters or words. For instance, notskype.com or skype1.com are both invalid web addresses.
And remember, if you do think that your account has been compromised or even suspect it, then go to skype.com and change your password immediately.
Identity theft is big business in the criminal world. Your identity has a value and you must protect this to ensure that you don't become a victim. There are a number of controls in place that protect your information and identity when in use with Skype.
When you sign into your account on our site all the information is sent over SSL. SSL encrypts all the information before it leaves your computer and can only be decrypted by our server. This is the technology in place on, for example, your online banking site or when you make a payment on an e-commerce website. When you sign in via Skype itself your information is also encrypted and kept safe from malicious third parties.
Skype also uses a technology called digital certificates to provide further assurance that you are in conversation with whom you think you are. Everyone using Skype is issued this digital certificate and it forms part of the protection that is provided to ensure that your Skype account can only be used by you and help to ensure that third parties can't impersonate you. Remember, this identity is protected by your Skype Name and password.
More about Digital Certificates.
Skype is a peer-to-peer communications application, which means that it relies on computers being able to directly send information to one another over the internet. As such, Skype works best when users are able to communicate directly amongst themselves over the internet without blocks or interference.
Firewalls are set up to protect computers and networks from outside access, thereby thwarting attacks from potentially malicious third parties on the internet. The presence of firewalls on a user's network often prevents that user from being able to directly receive communications from other users, which can reduce the quality of a voice call.
However, Skype will work fine even if it is behind a firewall. This is because when Skype runs on a network behind a firewall, it connects "outward" toward the internet. Skype does not in any way modify or interfere with the use of firewalls on your network. Whilst allowing incoming connections to Skype could increase the quality of a Skype call, no special firewall rules or exceptions are needed.
Find out more in the IT administrator guide.
The internet, like any network, can be monitored by criminals and hackers at any number of points. This is one of the reasons why email and many internet chat programs are not secure. As there are so many ways for unknown persons to monitor your communications, you must take positive steps to protect yourself from these malicious third parties.
Encryption is the process of converting information, using principles of mathematics, in such a way that it is readable only by the intended recipient after they have converted the information back. Many kinds of encryption techniques have been developed over the centuries. This process is called encryption and decryption and forms part of the security discipline called cryptography.
As far back as 1900 BC the Egyptians utilized non standard hieroglyphs to protect a message; whilst the Greeks in 490 BC used strips of leather wrapped around a specific length and width of staff. This process of disguising a message is called cryptography. Julius Caesar possibly created and used the world's first substitution cipher. Through shifting each letter a fixed amount, for example 'a' becoming 'e', 'b' becoming 'f' and so on, resulted in unintelligible words and messages. The approach of applying rules to a message and the result of a separate encoded message is called a cipher. The key to unlocking the hidden message was knowing the offset of which to shift the letters; forward to encode and backwards to decode.
These ciphers, whilst primitive now, were at the forefront of cryptography at their time but as with any advancement greater technological resources and knowledge can be used both to further a subject but also to work against it. As past ciphers can now be defeated trivially, modern ciphers must also continue to evolve.
Here at Skype we use standard internationally recognized and accepted encryption algorithms that have withstood the test of time over many years of analysis and attacks. This protects your communications from falling into the hands of hackers and criminals. In so doing, we help ensure your privacy as well as the integrity of the data being sent from you to your contacts.
One of Skype's main goals is to protect you from malicious attackers eavesdropping on your communications. In addition, we want to prevent the kind of impersonation that fraudsters often use over email (for instance phishing) to trick users into giving up valuable personal information. To achieve these goals, Skype issues everyone a "digital certificate" which is used to establish and confirm both the identity of the person placing and receiving a Skype call or chat.
What is a Digital Certificate?
A digital certificate is an electronic credential that can be used to establish the identity of a Skype user, wherever that user may be located. Just like a physical identity document, such as a driving license, a digital certificate must have certain properties in order to be used as a form of identification. In particular, it must:
As each Skype user possesses a digital credential, it is possible for any Skype user to verify the identity of any other Skype user. This process is called authentication, the proving of each party's identity to the other. In order to gain access to this digital certificate your Skype Name and password is confirmed. It is therefore imperative that you follow our guidelines for keeping your Skype Name and password secure.
Authentication is a critical step in ensuring secure communications. Imagine having a conversation with someone who claimed to be a business partner, but who is actually an impostor. The conversation could be strongly encrypted as normal yet the divulging of private information could still occur.
Communications networks, such as the internet, can be monitored by criminals and hackers at any number of points. This is one of the reasons why email and many internet chat programs are considered unsafe from a security point of view. In other words, because there are so many ways for unknown persons to monitor users' communications, users must take positive steps to protect themselves from this type of intrusion.
Encryption is the process of encoding a message, using principles of mathematics, in such a way that it is readable only by the intended recipient. Many kinds of encryption techniques have been developed over the centuries, but they all tend to resemble a lockbox and key; once a secret message is put into the lockbox and secured with the key, it can only be read again by someone possessing the same key. The key can be something known or even a physical object, such as the length and width staff as mentioned above. For Skype your key is your Skype Name and password, hence the criticality of keeping that safe.
Skype uses well-known standards-based encryption algorithms to protect Skype users' communications from falling into the hands of hackers and criminals. In so doing, Skype helps ensure user's privacy as well as the integrity of the data being sent from one user to another.

Copying proven business models may sound like a cheap way to make it into the serial entrepreneur club, but creating a company is more about execution than idea. German brothers Oliver, Alexander and Marc Samwer run Rocket Internet in Berlin, hiring young MBAs to launch clones of successful U.S. Internet businesses in Europe, South America and Asia. The brothers' first company, a copycat of eBay called Alando, sold to eBay for $50 million after operating for just 100 days.

plant dormancy options
For help in growing and maintaining your favourite plants, from sowing seeds and staking perennials to pruning roses, shrubs and trees, join the discussion.
Re: plant dormancy options
ive used Shultz potting soil that had several components though i havent come acroos a variety that had compost only, they do have perlite which i purchased. i'd drop by plant nurseries in the future so see if they have smaller formats. these plant nurseries aew a bit of a drive to get though and i'd have to look around for local hydroponics but i dont think there will be many around. i think that canadian tire has phased out the soils for the season but it wouldnt hurt to double check that.

The balanced piston R-800 first stage is compact and lightweight. It has a full complement of four low-pressure and two high-pressure ports and is fine- tuned for optimum performance.
The S-60 second stage features a diver adjustable sensitivity control to deliver air smoothly with each breath. The surface position decreases the likelihood of a free flow. In the dive position the control allows the regulator to power assist the diver as they breathe using the venturi effect. The S-60 is also equipped with an ortho-consciously designed mouthpiece to increase comfort and reduce jaw fatigue.
The RS-860 is available in both INT (yoke) and DIN versions.
First stage (R-800)
Compact and reliable balanced piston first stage
Instant delivery of air and high airflow for superior performance
Two H.P. ports and four L.P. ports
DIN version available as RS-860 DIN (300bar/4350psi)
Eligible for TUSA CARE Free Parts for Life Program
Second stage (S-60)
Lightweight compact case design
Venturi breathing adjustment lever
Left or right hose layout
Ortho-consciously designed mouthpiece
Eligible for TUSA CARE Free Parts for Life Program
Venturi Flow Adjustment
The venturi flow adjustment allows for ease of breathing by controlling the direction of air through the mouthpiece.
Ortho-conscious Mouth Piece
The ortho-conscious mouth piece feature prevents jaw fatigue. The ridges and flexible material allow the diver to have more control of the mouth piece and reduces tension in the jaw.
Cold Water Ready
The cold water ready feature enables the diver to use the regulator in water temperatures below 50°F/10°C.
Advanced Flow System
The advanced flow system allows ease of air flow and makes air delivery smoother due to the curved housing structure.
TUSA Regulators are BALANCED PISTON and BALANCED DIAPHRAGM type SINGLE HOSE REGULATORS. The regulator reduces high pressure air from the scuba
cylinder to ambient pressure suitable for breathing, through the operation of fi rst and
second stage regulators. The fi rst stage regulator reduces incoming high pressure
air, to an intermediate pressure of approximately 135PSI ( 9.5bar). The second
stage regulator, using a diaphragm operated demand valve, further reduces air from
intermediate pressure to ambient pressure permitting normal breathing. The fi rst and
second stages of the regulator are connected by a low pressure hose. A swivel yoke
(TYPE INT) on the fi rst stage body secures the regulator to the cylinder valve, while
an O-ring surrounding the outlet orifi ce on the cylinder valve ensures an airtight connection to the fi rst stage.
R-800 fi rst Stage
The R-800 is a balanced piston type fi rst stage offering superior reliability for stable
air supply regardless of depth or residual pressure. It is equipped with four intermediate low pressure ports and two high pressure ports.
Do not attempt to connect low pressure hoses to the high pressure ports with the use
of an adapter. Improper connection will cause damage to the equipment and could
result in serious personal injury. Low pressure components are not intended to
withstand pressures greater than 28Bar ≒(400 PSI). When installing your accessory
hoses, avoid damaging the O-ring. Tighten gently, but firmly into the first stage housing.
SCUBA complying with EN 250 are not intended for more than one user to breathe from
at the same time.
If SCUBA are configured and used by more than one diver at the same time, then the
cold water and breathing performances may not fulfil the requirements of EN 250.

Nuggets win 15th straight, 101-95 over Kings
DENVER George Karl didn't sound like the coach of a Denver team on a streak not seen in 43 years. He sounded like a coach ready to shake things up in the final weeks before the playoffs.
Moments after his Nuggets beat the Sacramento Kings 101-95 on Saturday night for their 15th straight win, Karl was lamenting his players' second straight lackluster performance.
"What I've been telling the team, telling them for three days, the next (11) games I don't want to hear about rest, I don't want to hear we're tired, I want our attitude to be the best basketball we've played all year," he said. "And if you don't want to do that then I'll play somebody else. I don't want to hear about my body hurts, I'm sore. Everybody plays the same amount of games, and resting's not going to get us ready for the opportunities.
"If we had a bunch of 30-year-olds I might have a different opinion but we have a bunch of 25-year-olds."
Karl was talking after the Nuggets tied the franchise record for consecutive wins, which was set by the Denver Rockets in the 1969-70 ABA season. While he was happy to get the win and stay ahead of Memphis and the Los Angeles Clippers for third place in the Western Conference, the way Denver has played the past two games is an issue.
It was also an issue for the players, who heard Karl's thoughts in the locker room.
"He was not happy with us, he was pretty mad with us," said Danilo Gallinari, who led Denver with 19 points. "The last two or three games we've been up and down. We've had some good stretches and bad stretches, probably because we're relaxed after all these wins we've had."
Kenneth Faried had 17 points and nine rebounds for the Nuggets, who have won 17 straight at home.
And they did it while Ty Lawson (right heel) and Wilson Chandler (shoulder), two of their top players, were out with injuries.
Lawson and Chandler have been catalysts in Denver's winning streak. Lawson has scored 20-plus points in 20 of his last 31 games and hit the game-winner against Oklahoma City on March 1.
Chandler, fully recovered from offseason hip surgery that cost him most of the first half of the season, has been big off the bench. He has scored 35 points twice and 24 in another game. His play Monday in Chicago helped the Nuggets win in overtime and extend their streak to 12 games.
Chandler and Lawson were injured in the Nuggets' 114-104 win at Oklahoma City on Tuesday night. Chandler separated his left shoulder and Lawson bruised his right heel.
Without the pair Friday the Nuggets needed six points in the final 10 seconds to cap a frantic comeback for a one-point win over Philadelphia.
"We have a different personality without Wilson and Ty," Karl said. "We haven't found a comfort zone or a flow without them, especially offensively."
Though they had all five starters in double figures against Sacramento on Saturday, it took until the final minutes to hold off the Kings, who got 24 points and 15 rebounds from DeMarcus Cousins.
They used a 7-0 run early in the fourth to take an 81-76 lead, but Sacramento hung around, getting within a bucket twice. Kosta Koufos scored on a layup and Faried's fast-break dunk gave Denver a 95-88 lead with 3:44 left.
Two layups by Cousins made it 95-92, but he missed a short shot in the lane that would have made it a one-point game. Andre Miller's three-point play with 51 seconds made it 98-92.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Washington's mayor is urging people to stay off the roads as snow comes down.
By midmorning in Washington, the snow was still mixed with rain and roads were passable, with only occasional slushy spots. But Mayor Vincent Gray warned that conditions were expected to deteriorate quickly in the afternoon.
He says the best thing people in the city can do is stay off the streets.
At the District of Columbia's salt dome, trucks were being loaded with a salt-and-sand mixture. The district has more than 450 pieces of snow equipment deployed to treat the roads.

New York, NY (Sports Network) - All the excitement, enthusiasm, and optimism
that Lakers' nation was feeling over the summer seems like a distant memory
now. The return of Steve Nash was supposed to cure a lot of what ailed the
Lakers but it simply hasn't. And now with Dwight Howard, Pau Gasol and Jordan
Hill sidelined indefinitely, it's a very real possibility the Lakers won't make
the playoffs.
Even if this team had stayed healthy, it doesn't appear like it would have come
close to reaching its championship expectations.
Why have they been so bad? Let me count the ways.
1. The defense has been awful. The Lakers rank 26th in points allowed, giving
up 101.5 per game. The only time they seem to play some semblance of defense,
or maybe the opposition is letting up a little, is in the fourth quarter, when
they are trying to dig themselves out of a hole. Over the last eight games,
which coincides with Steve Nash's return, the Lakers have given up an average
of 85.1 points through the first three quarters. That's an average of 28.3
points per quarter, which would equate to giving up just over 113 points per
2. The Lakers' bench is one of the worst in the league. Their reserves are 28th
in bench scoring, averaging 25.9 points per game and are 25th in field goal
percentage at 41.3 percent.
The two big offseason additions to the second unit, Antawn Jamison and Jodie
Meeks, have been big disappointments. Meeks is averaging 8.6 points per game
while shooting just 37.8 percent from the field, and has had way too many games
where he's shot the ball very poorly. He also settles for the 3-point shot way
too much, with 66 percent of his field goal attempts coming from downtown. And
Jamison, who averaged 17.2 points as a starter in Cleveland last season, is
putting up only 6.8 points in 19 minutes per game for the Lakers and had a
recent six-game stretch where he was a DNP-coaches decision. Neither Meeks or
Jamison is very good at creating their own shots or ones for teammates, which
is something the Lakers' bench has been missing since the departure of Lamar
3. Dwight Howard obviously hasn't been 100 percent since his offseason back
surgery and I believe it's wrong to assume that he'll eventually be back to
his normal level of play this season. His lack of explosiveness and athleticism
is hurting him on both ends of the floor. He has been slow moving from the weak
side to the strong side on defense and he hasn't been as effective on offense
with his lack of quickness and lift around the rim.
4. Mike D'Antoni only knows how to coach one way and it's the wrong way for
this Lakers team. His offensive system doesn't fit the talent he has, and his
inflexibility and stubbornness to have them adapt to his style rather than play
to his players' strengths is just plain stupid. His misuse of Pau Gasol is mind
boggling. Having the four-time All-Star play on the perimeter would be like
asking Hornets' PF Ryan Anderson to play on the low block and not shoot any
On the halftime show of ESPN's broadcast of the Lakers-Clippers game last
Friday, Magic Johnson, Jalen Rose and Bill Simmons all took direct shots at
"I just watch this Lakers team, I don't know what Mike D'Antoni is doing," said
Simmons. "They have Pau Gasol, who in my opinion is one of the three best low
post players in the league, and somebody, who in the Olympics was taking on
double teams against the best that America had to offer, and he's (D'Antoni)
burying him shooting threes. Why is he 25 feet from the basket?"
He also addressed D'Antoni's general coaching philosophy. "Coaching is about
adapting to who you have," Simmons said. "It's not about here's my system, you
guys have to fit into this. It's like, who do I have, how do I make this work,
what are the strengths and weaknesses of my team."
Former Lakers great Magic Johnson also was critical of D'Antoni's approach to
"They're not playing smart," Magic said after giving up 61 first-half points to
the Clippers. They shot 14 3-point shots. That makes it easier for the Clippers
to run. It's stupid basketball."
Magic then added, "You have to adjust your game plan to who you're playing each
and every game," said Johnson. "Right now, Coach D'Antoni is coaching one
system against every team. That's why the Lakers are losing."
Meanwhile, Rose's comments alluded to D'Antoni's deficiencies on the defensive
end of the floor.
"Anytime a head coach on any level is known as a specialist, that means he's
lacking in the other areas," Rose said.
The reality right now for the 15-19 Lakers is that a team that had championship
aspirations is in serious doubt of even getting to the playoffs, which Nash
acknowledged after last night's loss to the Rockets in Houston.
"There's no guarantee," Nash said of the Lakers being in the postseason." I
think three or four weeks ago, people would have said, 'Ah, it will get
better.' Now I definitely don't think there's a guarantee it will, so the only
remedy is continue to work hard and give yourself a chance for it to get
"I obviously think with time, and that might mean through the summer, we can
get better. But for this season, it's definitely going to be a challenge to
turn this around. ... We got a number of things we got to try to improve on, to
get better, but one thing that we can't accept is to take our foot off the gas
and accept things. We got to continue to fight."
If the bad defense, bad bench play and bad coaching continues, it's a fight the
Lakers could certainly lose.

Morgantown, WV (Sports Network) - A single free throw by Aaric Murray, his
only point of the night, proved to be crucial with just 9.3 seconds remaining
as the West Virginia Mountaineers held on to defeat the Texas Longhorns,
60-58, in Big 12 Conference action at WVU Coliseum.
Murray missed all three of his field goal attempts in the outing, but he did
lead the Mountaineers (11-11, 4-5 Big 12) on the glass with eight rebounds,
the most important of those coming at the end of the game.
Deniz Kilicli and Jabarie Hinds both tallied 14 points for West Virginia,
followed by Eron Harris with 13 as the squad posted a second-straight win and
completed the season sweep of the Longhorns (10-12, 2-7) who lost in overtime
at home back in January by a score of 57-53.
Texas was paced by Sheldon McClellan who led four starters in double figures
with his 14 points, adding a team-best eight rebounds as well. Javan Felix
responded with 12 points and seven assists, followed by Julien Lewis and
Ioannis Papapetrou with 10 points apiece as the team bowed for the second time
in the last three outings.
The Longhorns shot just 31.0 percent from the floor in the first half, yet led
by as many as seven points midway through the period before falling behind by
seven at the break, 32-25.
In the second half the Mountaineers pushed their lead as high as 11 points,
but the visitors not only closed the gap, they also managed to take the lead
at 49-47. However, down the stretch the 'Horns were held without a field goal
for more than four and a half minutes which allowed WVU to again pull out to a
five-point advantage at 59-54.
Trailing by a score of 60-56 with time running out, the Longhorns made things
interesting with just 0.7 seconds remaining after McClellan was fouled
attempting a 3-pointer from the left side. McClellan knocked down the first
two attempts to make the score 60-58 and, after a timeout, missed the third
shot on purpose, but the ball was rebounded by Murray to secure the win.
West Virginia overcame 16 turnovers and a mere six offensive rebounds by
outscoring Texas at the charity stripe, 20-11.

Hello Laura! Really like your style and work. But im actually writing to make sure if you are aware of this or have agreed to the use of your image for this company https://www.facebook.com/pages/Caser-...
0433818207 . Check their photos. I stumbled on this page a few months back and all of their designs were ripoffs and claimed to be caesar (the company) design. I had a talk with the staff and it turned out that the company had thought that all the images were public domain and that they trusted the person who made the selection as a one time job. The amount of the images was really huge. They claimed to have taken down most of it and i could see that they did. But now ,after a few months i recognize a lot of their new images are from societ6 users. So far i`ve found 7 artist who`s work i recognize and will also ask them aswell if they have agreed to it or posted their work somewere as a public domain image or on shutterstock and etc.
Thanks Madiso - I'll have a look!
so beautiful work!
Very nice!
Beautiful works!!! :)
great design
ahah cool!
ahah cool!
I love it

Spring 2016 Quick LinksSchedule of Classes
Online OrientationMandatory for some Online Courses
Course Syllabi
Welcome to Catalyst WorkshopsOptional for students new to Catalyst
Welcome to Cultural Anthropology! I would like to congratulate you for choosing this course, because you will find it one of the most educational and interesting courses you have ever taken. You will be taking this course with an instructor who has a Ph.D. in Cultural Anthropology from UCLA. That's me; but I will not take space for myself further as there is a brief description on me on the course syllabus.
Please Note: There are three required tests that are administered on campus. With this course, the catalyst website for ANTH 2 gives you a weekly schedule of reading and video viewing.
Although we will not be meeting on a regular basis, I will be in contact with you through e-mail and by telephone. In addition, you are welcome to drop by my office during the office hours.
In this course we will travel throughout the world by means of the videos and our readings. We will be studying the way of life (culture) of many people ranging from technologically simplest hunters-gatherers to the most complex western industrial societies. This will be a very educational journey as you will begin to appreciate the richness and diversity that exists in the way
of life of human beings. You will realize that our way of life is not the only way to live on this planet. Do you know that there are cultures where people never experience a traffic jam; cultures where there are no policemen, jails, and courtrooms; and yet peace and order is maintained? How do they do it, and what can we learn from them?
This course will be an eye-opener for you in several ways: First, it will enable you to understand your own culture--its strengths and weaknesses--better, by way of comparing it with what you learn from other cultures. Second, you will find it a very enriching experience for you as a human
Over 100,000 years ago our species began to spread out all over the world. We have lost contact with our fellow human
beings for so long that now we find them so very different from us that it even seems that we can never be like them. But every
time you see an Australian aborigine, or a "strange-looking" Amazonian aborigine, remember that if you were born and raised
there, this is exactly how you would look like and how you would feel, and behave exactly like that person. So personalize the
course, and when you are reading about "others", remember you are just looking in a mirror and seeing another version of
yourself. This course is about the many faces of humanity, about you and me, and all the potentialities and weaknesses that we
have as reflected in others.
The third reason why this course is very important to take is because human culture which is a means to help humanity
survive on this planet, has taken a very destructive course. All over the world, particularly in western industrial societies, we are
polluting the air, and the water upon which all life depends. We are destroying the habitat and the living creatures in it for material gain. We are even busy killing one another. At this moment that you read this, there are more than 170 wars going on around the world. We need this course to begin to understand why human culture has taken such a destructive course, and what can be done to ensure that our grandchildren will have the same chance as we did to live on this planet.
Since education is more important than just grades, I have provided you with many opportunities to get extra credit points in this course by doing additional short readings on fascinating subjects. It is up to you how many extra-credit assignments you want to do. So you will have no problems in passing the course, or getting an A if you so choose. For more details on course requirements, please check the course syllabus. Once again, welcome to Cultural Anthropology!

There are those who would argue that Agile Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) is a complete contradiction in terms or at best an oxymoron like "Jumbo Shrimp." And there are certainly definitions of Agile that would preclude many of the concepts of ALM. But if you consider the spirit of Agile software development (and at its purest, what else is there?), then the spirit could be captured as
- Deliver value to stakeholders faster
- Empower teams to be self-directed
- Deliver stable, working code using time-boxed (short) iterations
- Quality, quality, quality
In that case, I would argue that it's just a matter of scale. When an organization has a multi-disciplinary team with members from requirements, development, test, user experience and design, all co-located and all in the same team room then they are pretty darn lucky. Most of us work remotely from at least some team members, often across time zones. Most of us work on smaller components of complex systems that require organizational boundaries like independent test teams as opposed to embedded testers. When teams have a bigger scale and then they actually need to leverage the strengths of ALM to achieve the benefits of agile. In other words, ALM is an enabler of agility for otherwise hard-to-be agile organizations. This is because ALM provides the transparency and communication that is the key success factor for agile: building the trust that allows teams to work effectively.
Let's look at the idea of self-directed teams. Search
CIO says,
A self-directed work team (SDWT) is
a group of people, usually employees in a company, who combine different skills
and talents to work without the usual managerial supervision toward a common
purpose or goal.
In order for teams to function in a self-directed manner,
everyone on the team has to have enough information to make sound business
decisions. That's the core of success. It's not that everyone always agrees on
a given direction. But rather, that each individual understands the goals
sufficiently to make good decisions as needed. But when people have different
talents, skills and responsibilities how do they align on a common purpose? How
can that happen across time zones? How can globally distributed teams deliver
on the vision of self-directed?
ALM tools can help by providing a single source of truth where everyone on the team can go to see what's what. And the team that plans together delivers together. ALM tools can provide the transparency to understand who is working on what and when to ensure they deliver on the milestones. Transparency builds trust and trust builds communication. It's well known that teams with high levels of trust are the most productive teams.
So is Agile ALM an oxymoron? I would say definitely not. Maybe like "jumbo shrimp" it's a relative description that makes sense. You can certainly be Agile without ALM, you can certainly leverage ALM without being Agile. But you can also, particularly for large scale, distributed teams, reap the benefits of combining them with Agile ALM.

Exit everyman: How the Jersey Democratic bosses destroyed Dick Codey and unleashed Chris Christie
They won't say it publicly, but there is fear, genuine fear, among New Jersey Democrats that this year's gubernatorial election will produce a Republican landslide not seen since the Tom Kean era, threatening Democratic control of the legislature and key county offices.
With the election just over nine months away, Governor Chris Christie's approval rating sits at 74 percent, his post-Sandy bounce so far impervious to political gravity. His willingness to break loudly and publicly with a national Republican Party that remains poisonously unpopular in blue-state Jersey helps explain this, and Christie's reelection position has also been fortified by the decisions of the state's two most popular Democrats to sit out the 2013 race.
Cory Booker, whose flirtation with the race represented a fairly transparent publicity grab in advance of a 2014 Senate campaign, backed out before Christmas. And Richard J. Codey, who served 14 months as acting governor from 2004-2006 (during which time he became the only other New Jersey governor to break the 70 percent approval mark in a Quinnipiac poll), stood down this past Friday.
There was little reason to believe Booker or Codey would defeat Christie, and polls showed each of them losing. But they each had the potential to keep the race competitive enough to prevent a full-scale slaughter and protect the rest of their party's ticket. Now the most likely Democratic nominee is Barbara Buono, a state senator from Middlesex County who trails the governor by 41 points in Quinnipiac's poll.
Buono is a committed liberal who makes a good presentation, but she isn't well known, and there are serious doubts about her ability to raise campaign cash. More than one New Jersey politics-watcher has invoked the example of Peter Shapiro, the talented and ambitious Essex County executive who ran against the mega-popular Kean in 1985 and was crushed by more than 40 points, losing all 21 of the state's counties. New Jersey is more Democratic now than it was then, but Christie wouldn't need to replicate the dimensions of Kean's landslide to carry a lot of Republicans into office.
For Garden State Democrats, the reversal of fortune these past few years has been startling. For the decade and a half before Christie's 2009 election, Democrats were practically unbeatable in the state. There were two main ingredients to this success: Demographic changes that made the state more diverse and Democrat-friendly, and the post-1994 redefinition of the national Republican Party as Southern-dominated, Christian-infused and ideologically far to the right; the culturally liberal suburbanites who'd happily voted for Kean, Clifford Case and even Ronald Reagan began fleeing the G.O.P. label in droves. Even when it seemed like they were doing everything they could to lose elections, Democrats would still come out on top.
But now they're fighting for their lives, facing not only the prospect of four more years without the governorship, but also the potential unraveling of a down-ballot empire on which the jobs and contracts that give the party its organizational and financial muscle depend. It's a turnaround that can be attributed to a host of culprits, but one towers over the others: The New Jersey Democratic Party itself.
The best place to pick up the story is in early 1999, when Frank Lautenberg decided to retire from the U.S. Senate. Elected in an upset 18 years earlier, Lautenberg had never been especially popular with the state's voters, winning reelection with 54 percent in 1988 and 51 percent in 1994. With Christie Whitman, who'd won reelection as governor in a squeaker in 1997, making noise about challenging him, Lautenberg's prospects for a fourth term in 2000 were iffy.
He also suspected that his fellow Democratic senator Robert Torricelli (who also happened to be chairing the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee) was quietly spurring the Whitman chatter. By then, the animosity between the two men was universally known on Capitol Hill and in New Jersey political circles; in front of their Democratic Senate colleagues, Torricelli had once threatened to castrate Lautenberg. A re-election campaign in 2000 would be winnable, Lautenberg knew, but it would also be expensive. He didn't want to self-finance, nor did he want to spend months dialing for dollars, so he opted to call it quits. And with that, the race to replace him was on.
At first, it looked like a routine Democratic succession battle would unfold. Robert Menendez, then a fourth-term congressman from Hudson County, was interested. So was Frank Pallone, the congressman from the Shore, and Tom Byrne, the son of Brendan, the former governor. There was also Jim Florio, a fixture in state politics who triggered a tax revolt as governor in 1990, watched his popularity plummet to under 20 percent, then came within an inch of fending off Whitman in 1993. Florio, who'd served in the House for 14 years before his governorship, had always seemed better suited for a legislative role, and here was his chance to get back in.
What none of these men knew, though, was that there was someone else very interested in the race, someone who was as filthy rich as he was politically unknown.
Jon Corzine had grown up in Illinois and come east in the 1970s to make his name on Wall Street. A few decades later, he was the chairman and C.E.O. of Goldman Sachs, with an estimated net worth of $400 million. Robert Rubin, who'd left Goldman to serve as Bill Clinton's Treasury secretary, had turned Corzine on to politics, but he'd never been much more than a dabbler. His official residence was in tony Summit, N.J., but he rarely voted in state primaries and focused his political giving more on national candidates and causes. He even cut a check for Al D'Amato at one point. But the timing was fortuitous when Corzine found himself on the losing end of a Goldman power struggle in early '99. Lautenberg's retirement announcement offered a golden opportunity for redemption.
It wasn't obvious right away, but the fix was in. The new candidate made it clear to the people who mattered that he'd spend whatever it took—or, more accurately, whatever anyone looking for a check told him it would take—to secure the nomination. Not every Democratic leader in the state was convinced—South Jersey's Democratic organization, which had nursed Florio's career, stayed loyal to its man. But plenty were.
Torricelli, officially neutral as the DSCC chairman, quietly urged Corzine on, and the other candidates quickly realized they were playing a rigged game. Byrne took a pass. Menendez talked about all of the opportunities he had in the House, and how excited he'd be to go back there for a few more terms. Pallone figured out the score when the Middlesex County Democratic Organization—a powerful machine in the heart of his congressional district whose support he'd been relying on—reneged on its commitment to him.
"They want to go with Corzine," a Pallone aide was quoted saying. "They are dazzled by the money."
For rank-and-file Democrats, the advent of Candidate Corzine was never actually all that exciting. His positions were boilerplate liberal, no different from Florio's—but at least Florio could articulate them with some punch. And at least Florio had a history of delivering results. A familiar storyline took hold: Corzine would cut a check and win a major Democratic group's backing, but when he'd actually show up to visit with the group, the party regulars would be disappointed, even resentful.
"He is pulling up to towns with a dumpster filled with bags of money and leaving two bags here and five in Jersey City and Newark," one Hudson County Democrat complained to a reporter.
Luckily for Corzine, personal contact can be an overrated ingredient in New Jersey elections, which are won with organizational muscle and over-the-air assaults. And on these fronts, he was light years ahead of Florio. The former governor put up a fight—everyone who watched agreed that he wiped the floor with Corzine in every debate they staged—but Corzine's powerful endorsements and $40 million of cash translated into a 58 to 42 percent primary victory.

Eating Black Beauty, and other culinary crimes
(Page 3 of 3)
I think I'm closing in on the ick factor of eating horses. Even when they aren't pets or given names, horses have a certain dignity about them. We see wild horses racing across a valley and it touches our hearts — the freedom of it, the grace in motion. Cows lying around in a field chewing their cud and passing gas just don't set the spirit soaring in the same way. Cows and sheep seem remarkably generic and remarkably dumb. Of course, that doesn't mean they deserve to be eaten, or that their individual lives should be valued less, but somehow it's easier to eat a beef stew than a stallion steak.
My considered prediction is that horse DNA will eventually be found in food in the U.S. That's because, if we look, we will find the DNA of practically everything in our food. Tell me again, what's the FDA's "acceptable" amount of insect parts allowed in my salad?
I have some equivocation about eating veal because of how the young animals are raised. But I don't equivocate at all when it comes to horses. I'll ride them, bet on them and read stories about them, but I won't eat them. Knowingly.

The Supremes at Earl's All-You-Can-Eat
by Moore, Edward Kelsey
Get ready to sit back and relax and take a trip to Plainview, Indiana during the 1960's. The reader goes on a journey with three friends Barbara Jean, Clarice, and Odette through four decades. What happens during this coming of age story is at times funny and sad, with a dash of paranormal activity. Most of the story takes place at the small town's diner which is known as Earl's Diner. It is here where the three friends meet, eat good food, and have great conversation. Fantastic read on true friendship. It is a well written story, a first novel by native Hoosier musician and writer Edward Kelsey Moore; and it will leave you wanting more.

Monty and Rommel: Parallel Lives
by Caddick-Adams, Peter
Britain's Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery and Germany's Erwin Rommel fought each other during World War II in France 1940, North Africa 1942-43, and France 1944. Each cultivated good press relations, and was popular in his own country, but they had quite different reputations. "Monty" was meticulous in preparation and deliberate in execution, while Rommel was a fast-moving, risk-taking improviser. These different approaches to combat reflected their experiences a generation earlier when they fought (heroically) as junior officers in the First World War.
Monty's WWI unit was overrun and dispersed amid great confusion, requiring exhaustive marching with little food or water, fueling his later obsession with physical fitness, careful planning, and thorough briefing of all subordinates. Rommel's successes as a young officer all derived from flexible thinking and risky exploitation of enemy weaknesses. Both officers spent the inter-war years thinking, training, teaching, writing, and becoming outstanding practitioners of their craft.

Dancing Dogs
by Katz, John
First, let me say that I am not a fan of short stories. But I am a fan of dogs and the author Jon Katz. No one captures the human/ animal bond quite like he does. So when I saw his new title "Dancing Dogs" I picked it up. There are sixteen delightful stories in the book. Among the dogs we meet are Pearl, who keeps an elderly woman company, Gus, who helps a widower through a rough patch, Dolly, the dog who kept men away, and Ernie, the psychic dog. I think my favorite story was "Luther and Minnie in Heaven" in which we are treated to a description of dog heaven which is quite disgusting. But I suspect these things really would be heaven to our four-legged friends! If you are looking for an engaging little book, this is it. And by the way, I found out that short stories aren't so bad after all.

A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again: Essays and Arguments
by Wallace, David Foster
The late David Foster Wallace is probably best known for his mammoth magnum opus Infinite Jest. But, prior to that novel's release, Wallace had made a name for himself in part through several well-received pieces in magazines such as Harper's, Premier, and Esquire. A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again is a collection of many of those articles.
The articles cover topics such as tennis, the films of director David Lynch, the impact of television on fiction writing, the Illinois State Fair, and the experience of taking a luxury cruise.
However, the themes of these essays explore far more than their premises would initially suggest. The titular essay, for example, covers the week Wallace spent on a cruise ship visiting the Caribbean. In it Wallace fights his agoraphobic tendencies, which would have him stay cooped up in his cabin, in order to mingle with his shipmates and attempt to enjoy the cruise experience. During his cruise, Wallace competes in a ship-wide ping-pong tournament (of sorts), develops a crush on his cabin attendant, and enters into a hostile relationship with the ship's hotel manager, who he refers to as "Mr. Dermatitis." Somewhat unexpectedly, Wallace uses these experiences to examine ideas about consumerism, the nature of luxury, and the roots of despair in U.S. culture. But it is Wallace's unique blend of intellect and self-deprecating humor that make this, and many of the essays in this collection, so enjoyable to read, no matter how deep the subject matter gets.

Cursor's Fury
by Butcher, Jim
Cursor's Fury is the third book in the Codex Alera by Jim Butcher.
In the series, in Alera, magic takes the form of elemental furies. The furies inhabit the fire, water, rocks, and trees. Wild furies inhabit the forests and mountains or dance in storms. Tame furies may light lamps or empower individuals with powers of flight, healing or great strength. The strongest furies are under the control of the high lords and high ladies of Alera, and the strongest furies are those of First Lord. Even simple farmers have some skill with furies; however, in all of Alera, only Tavi has no furies at all.
Even without a fury, Tavi has proven a resourceful servant of the crown. At the time of the second battle of Calderon, Tavi gained the friendship of Kitai and helped win the alliance with her people, the mysterious Marat. While training at the capital, Tavi helped thwart an attack by the monstrous Canim and the alien Vord. He completed his training as a cursor -- an agent of the crown -- and is now preparing for the next step in his training: service in the Legion.
As Cursor's Fury begins, the hostilities with the Canim are unresolved. Two of the powerful high lords are preparing for civil war. War is looming for Alera, and in this book, there are battles. The action in Cursor's Fury is good, and the battles are some of the best in the entire series. The unusual magic system combined with the Roman tactics make for great military fantasy.
