I like the layout, feels very organic.
Just getting this started; The next part of my current campaign Has my players going into a long buried ancient city. This will be my first attempt at creating an interior map from scratch. This may take me a vary long time and will be done in sections. The following is a few assumptions that will be used in creating the maps.
- City was advanced civilization of unknown origin (simulated by using modern construction ideas)
- Buildings are old; damaged from years of being buried; but otherwise fairly stable.
- There will be alot of up and down travel on map as ceilings cave in and floors are blocked in some areas.
- Sparse population of area (plan on two factions)
- Despight the lack of combat encounters or other battle necisitating features maps will need to be used to show the area for flavor.
- Maps will be scratch built (with some items being brought in from other free sources) in gimp
- Maps will be used with and built for the Map tool From RPG Tools
As the area is underground and not lit lighting effects will be a secondary. I plan on doing the base map as a clean rendition as ruined furniture and detritus will be brought in as objects on the VTT system. Though important area effects will still be layed out.
The following is a rendition of the old city map found by one of our intrepid adventurers. This was made when the city was still above ground and thriving so does not have the layouts for cave ins and damages. Also this was a fast general city design.
More to follow Soon.......
I like the layout, feels very organic.
Very cool. This will be fun to watch develop

Finished Maps
Kingdom Of Shendenflar Campaign Setting (WIP)
Everything I post is free for use and redistribution under the Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 licence, except where noted otherwise in the thread.
I no this is still not a structure or area map please bare with me
Step 1 was to take our working area and blow it up to extrapolate as much detail as possible:
I then made a second layer; filled with a stone texture; and then masked it using the blown up area as a guide. This was then further modified by doing a distortion map procedure (Create another layer filled with layer clouds all numbers maxed. Edit layer mask: filter>map>Distort; the first one was -20/20 both with the noise selected; the second reversed with noise selected; the third was 20/-20 the negative was distorted using the rocky texture; and finally a fourth -20/20 again negative with rocky positive with noise).
Ok now to make buildings and roads we will first make the rocky layer invisible; then using our work blwnup and the color select tool we select a region of road; this will give us a not so nice outline for the roads (which works great for buried ruins) Then we make a simple blk/wht layer with the roads as black and set this off to the side for a bit.
Next we take and choose a texture for the city blocks; I choose one that looked like allot of little fires or swirls (Named chocolate swirls in gimp. We want to ad a mask to this and coppy our roads build layer we just made to the mask, this will make all areas that are roads transparent. We apply this layer mask and then using Filters>Distort> Mosaic we make a nice broken block I chose fairly small octagons and squares blocks with a bit bigger spacing made them messy and color variance down to nothing. Also took all checks except average color out. I also created a layer under it and gave it a marble texture for the roads This is what we have
Starting to look a bit like what I want I decided to give my rock texture by taking the random noise we made earlier and aplying the exact same mask from the rock layer then setting it to an overlay

Please note just looked at every thing and the Right side of the map should be a large road structure and not a cave in this will get fixed in later renditions.
I apologize For not posting recently on this still working on it; I have been experimenting with some Techniques recently dealing with perspective and shadow effects I believe that I have a reasonable idea of how to proceed now and should have something later today to show you guys
Ok at this point I have tried several techniques to do the interior structure. Things I have done so far are not coming out the right way. I think I need a jumping point; any got a decent tut on this stuff?
Poored through the tuts section here at the guild saw several good tuts. one I will be playing with is http://www.cartographersguild.com/sh...r-take-on-this . it seems to give enough of the basics while being flexible enough for me to tweak to the style I need.

Republicans Find Themselves Facing New Attack Ad Created By Tea Party (VIDEO)
Nathaniel Downes
Addicting Info
October 29, 2013
The Tea Party has lost. It knows it has lost. So it has resorted to calling anyone who disagrees with them 'Traitors.' So begins the new McCarthyism.
John Darkow, Columbia Daily Tribune, Missouri
The personal attacks against me during the primary finally became so heavy that the state Republican chairman, Gaylord Parkinson, postulated what he called the Eleventh Commandment: Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican. It's a rule I followed during that campaign and have ever since.The Tea Party has lost. It knows it has lost. So it has resorted to the only tactics it knows, calling anyone who disagrees with them "Traitors." So begins the new McCarthyism, and it will sink the Republican party. The words by Ronald Reagan meant to guide his party have long been forgotten.
Tea Party Leaders Decide Enough Is Enough.
Just watch this new video from the Tea Party Leadership Fund: http://youtu.be/ChnejUuBGqg
Any Republican who did their job is on that list, labelled as traitors. The Tea Party Leadership Fund (who notably bankrolled Louie Gohmert and Allen West according to Opensecrets.org) has now decided to finance *any* candidate who runs against any 'traitor' who did their jobs. So, we can see more rape is "something that God intended to happen" and legitimate rape comments next year from the Tea Party. We will get more pushes to bring back slavery alongside admission that voter suppression efforts target black people. The Tea Party has decided that they hate the United States enough that they just want to burn it down, and they intend to play fiddle while it burns.
Exterminating The GOP One Congressman At A Time.
One person specifically picked out by this new push is House Speaker John Boehner, who already is facing a primary challenge from Eric Gurr, who was quick to jump on the attack angle the Tea Party has picked, tweeting this: "GOP leadership were the behind-the-scene architects of surrender in the shutdown-debt ceiling standoff."
Checking his positions, we find a grocery list of Tea Party approved messages, almost cookie cutter. From the worship of the failed policies of Milton Friedman to the insistence that there was a Benghazi cover-up.
And he is but one of hundreds of primary contenders the Tea Party Leadership Fund hopes to finance. There is a sign of weakness from the GOP establishment, as they had over-relied upon the Tea Party for any national presence. Having lost that support, there is now a real possibility of major damage to the GOP across the nation. The GOP is now fighting to stay alive, sinking millions into these primary fights, which will leave these candidates weak against their Democratic opponents come November.
If The Tea Party Wins, They Still Lose.
To further hurt their position, the 'traitors' are facing a dramatic change of demographics, with voters rapidly becoming younger, and more liberal. The business groups which had financed the GOP into creating the Tea Party are now fleeing the Frankenstein's Monster they helped to create. The right-wing media which supported the party now bashes it on a regular basis. The overall picture is a party at war with itself.
There no longer is a Republican Party. There is the GOP and there is the Tea Party, and they are in opposition to each other. The Tea Party terrorists aim is a simple one, the utter destruction of the United States of America. The GOP is now facing what they have sewn. They courted those who hate America, the John Birch Society, the KKK, those who believe that "The South Will Rise Again." Their business allies this group a name, the Tea Party. Now they are threatened to be dismantled from within, true Republicans called traitors by those they recruited. It is up to each of us to make sure that the Republican collapse does not destroy our country we love in the process.

Hello everyone! My name is Paul. I hope everyone is having a great day. I actually heard about this place from my professor and I cannot wait to explore this site.
I am actually in the process of beginning a directed readings/independent study of cartographic principles in fantasy maps and other fictional worlds. I will be taking a look at various literature involving fantastical maps as a basis for understanding how they compare to maps of reality. Then I will be examining certain fantastical maps themselves, as a sort of critique from a professional cartographer's perspective (or at least try to, I'm not a professional yet). I will also be blogging about my research throughout the semester, making presenting the media easier.
Just by glancing at the home page for the Cartographer's Guild, I have a feeling I will find a wonderful amount of examples, perspectives, and maybe even people that can help me with my study.
Thanks for your time. I'm excited to get started.

Another round of layoffs hit Cincinnati's only remaining daily newspaper this afternoon. Various reports indicate between 12 and 20 people were let go at The Enquirer.
In the latest volley in the escalating cyberwar involving attacks on WikiLeaks and its founder, anonymous hackers have blocked access and disrupted service to Web sites for MasterCard, the Swedish prosecutor's office and the attorney representing two women accusing Assange of crimes
After WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange voluntarily turned himself into British authorities today, he was denied bail and remains in custody until at least Dec. 14, according to The Guardian newspaper in London.
Assange, 39, was told by London Metropolitan police about new charges he faces in connection with two sexual encounters he had in Sweden. "He is accused by the Swedish authorities of one count of unlawful coercion, two counts of sexual molestation and one count of rape, all alleged to have been committed in August 2010," the newspaper reported.
It's a trying time for all newspapers, especially daily newspapers and especially The Cincinnati Enquirer.
As more and more readers turn to the Internet for free content and information, advertisers that once relied on print publications instead are flocking to Web sites like Craig's List. Newspaper companies are left desperately trying to devise a new business model to replace the loss of advertising cash.

Bob Poyer MUSC Library 792-2892 email@example.com
- Class Descriptions
- Class Schedule
- Library Class Registration Sign-up for Mobile Apps, EndNote, RefWorks, PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE classes
- Request a library class Faculty, students and educators may request librarians to teach a class or make a presentation
The library offers tours, orientations, course related instruction, an information management series of bibliographic instruction, and various programs on special topics for specific groups. Individual instruction and consultation is also available.
Programs are announced on the Library Homepage (About the Library: Library and Internet Instruction), in the Library's MUSCLS Newsletter, by monthly letter to Department Chairmen and by posting the schedule on the front door of the Library. Classes are held in the Library (either in Reference or in the Informatics Lab). Upon request, a reference librarian will teach classes or give an demonstration in the requesting department.
TOURS and ORIENTATIONS
The reference staff will orient new students, residents, faculty and staff upon request. Orientations include a walk-through tour of the library with an explanation of library services. Some orientations also included and introduction to e-resource access, MUSC e-mail, NetID accounts and homeroom server space.
The most effective form of library education is course-related instruction. Upon request, reference librarians will work with professors and instructors to help design the best library instruction for their students. Often, classes in how to effectively search the literature are requested. This can include the use of databases like MEDLINE or CINAHL, as well as other databases, online article indexes, and e-resources. Classes on the effective use of internet resources help a student find internet resources more efficiently, as well as learn how to evaluate web sites. When possible, library instruction should be scheduled close to the time students will be required to locate information, compile bibliographies and write research papers. Instruction can be intgrated into "as needed" portion of the educational experience.

By MARK DIERKES
For The Intelligencer
BEALLSVILLE - Beallsville lineman Dalton Secrest has All-Ohio credentials and Friday the defensive end closed his outstanding career in record-breaking style on Senior Night.
A 6-foot-2, 275-pounder with an eye for quarterbacks, Secrest eclipsed the OVAC's all-time mark for sacks with his 26th midway through the third quarter in a 39-0 Blue Devils victory against shorthanded St. John Central.
"I'm proud of my seniors and Dalton certainly has made his presence felt here for four years," said Beallsville coach Paul Kanzigg, hopeful his club's 6-4 regular season record is good enough for a Division VII playoff slot in Region 25.
Ironically, the old quarterback sack mark (25) was held by former Blue Devil Andrew Ashland in 2006.
"Hopefully, we're in (the postseason) for an 11th game Saturday night," Kanzigg added. "I'm just pleased with our effort on both sides of the ball. (St. John) had a few players out, but played hard to the end."
The Fighting Irish tried some trickery with an onside kick at the outset, but sophomore Dawson Weekley covered the ball at his 46.
After a holding call, Beallsville drove the distance for a 6-0 lead at 10:14. Sophomore quarterback Levi Phillips, subbing for injured starter Chase Mercer, threw to senior Derek Lucas for 35 yards on his first attempt.
Freshman running back Joey Cunningham, who finished with a game-high 106 yards on 14 carries, ran it twice for 12 and 16, before senior Bruce Sefert found the end zone with a 4-yard jaunt.
On the ensuing kickoff, St. John failed to cover the boot and junior Mikey Palmer pounced on it at the Irish 22.
A Phillips-to-Lucas pass on third-and-8 gained 16 yards to the 4, where Beallsville scored when Lucas pulled in a Phillips pass in.
St. John, which finished 0-10, went three-and-out to set up a third Blue Devils TD, 55-yard TD catch by Lucas.
The hosts forced another punt, leading to a 77-yard, four-play TD drive for the Blue Devils.
Lucas, uncovered on the right side, caught a short toss from Phillips at his 35 and scampered 66 yards to the St. John 15. Sefert bulled his way for the score on the next play with 40 seconds left in the first.
Beallsville scored on its second possession of the second when Palmer hauled in a Phillips pass and took it the distance, covering 79 yards with 3:27 left in the half.
Secrest set his record when he sacked Irish QB Dario Paolina at his 28 on the first series of the second half.
Beallsville closed the scoring with 1:49 left in the third after Cunningham's gain of 28, and Phillips' keeper for 29 to the 1. Senior Cole Beckett earned the TD call on a dive on the next play.

the Cleveland Cavaliers rolled over the Charlotte Bobcats, 122-95, at Quicken
Loans Arena. Dion Waiters added 19 points, Wayne Ellington scored 16 and

out an 86-76 victory over the struggling Orlando Magic. DeAndre Jordan added

smile about on the Grammy road trip, snapping a three-game skid. They did
it without Blake Griffin, who missed his second straight game with a strained
left hamstring, and Chris Paul, who sat out his ninth straight contest with a
bruised right kneecap. Jameer Nelson led Orlando with 18 points and five
rebounds, while Nikola Vucevic recorded a double-double with 15 points

starting guard Jason Richardson will need to undergo season-ending surgery on
his knee. On Monday, the club's second-leading scorer and top rebounder,
Thaddeus Young, suffered a grade one left hamstring strain and will miss the

nine rebounds for the Nets, who ended a 10-game road losing streak at Detroit.
Johnson finished with 16 points and four boards, while Gerald Wallace
contributed 14 points in the victory. Greg Monroe netted a game-high 23
points and grabbed 10 boards for the Pistons, who have dropped three
straight and five of their last six overall. Will Bynum donated 13 points and
dished out seven helpers, while Kyle Singler and Brandon Knight each
registered 12 points in the setback.

Miami, FL (Sports Network) - LeBron James and Dwyane Wade had 32 and 31

|Motivational assembly, concert Thursday at HHS
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
Thursday, Aug. 20 at 2 p.m. students at Holyoke High School will attend a motivational presentation by the Todd Becker Foundation. "Where is your life headed?" is the theme of the assembly that addresses positive decision making.
Keith Becker will be speaking on the importance of making good choices, as he tells the tragic story of his brother Todd.
After Todd was killed in an alcohol related accident, the Todd Becker Foundation, a Christian based organization, was formed. Traveling around the country, Keith speaks at high school assemblies.
The basis of Keith's presentation is Biblical passage Matthew 7:13, which reads, "The highway to destruction is wide and the road that leads to it is easy for the many who choose this way. But the gateway to life is small and the narrow road that leads to it is hard, but only a few ever choose this way."
Keith encourages youth to strive for the right path, avoiding the destruction at the end of the other. The story is described as one every high school student can relate to, because it's a powerful story about choices.
In addition to the high school assembly Thursday afternoon, the public is invited to a free evening concert by eartosee at the high school at 7 p.m.

It is important to emphasize that it needs to be stored away from extreme temperatures and light, as these will hasten the oxidation and deterioration of this, or any, olive oil. If you normally store your oil in a cabinet that is frequently opened, try keeping the bottle in its original packing box.

Will Target Repeat Missoni Fiasco on Black Friday?
Anyone who lined up outside their local Target early one Tuesday morning this past September to score some Missoni -- and witnessed the retail carnage that ensued -- will be well prepared for Black Friday. Target, on the other hand, may not be as ready -- especially when it comes to its website.

Taylor Swift is breaking records again – her new single "Shake It Off" has become the highest debut on America's Adult Pop Songs chart.
The track is expected to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 countdown on Wednesday but it has started off high on other charts.
It debuts at number nine on the Adult Pop Songs radio airplay chart, becoming the first single to bow in the top 10.
The previous record was set by Alanis Morissette, who debuted "Thank U"at 13 in 1998.
"Shake It Off" also enters America's Pop Songs countdown at 12, tying the previous highest debut, Mariah Carey's 1993 tune "Dreamlover."

Ireland, OR (Sports Network) - Alex Morgan produced a first-half hat trick and
Sydney Leroux added a second-half brace to help the United States women's
national team to 5-0 win in a friendly match with Ireland at Jeld-Wen Field on
Morgan opened the scoring in the 24th minute when she latched on to a long
ball from Heather Mitts, drifted inside to the top of the box and fired a shot
off the post and into the back of the net.
She doubled the advantage 10 minutes later when Lauren Cheney slipped her a
lateral pass to tuck home with her second touch.
The United States went three goals up one minute before halftime when Morgan's
shot from outside the penalty area was blocked. She collected the second
attempt and curled a low shot past goalkeeper Emma Byrne.
Leroux extended the United States' lead in the 62nd minute off of an assist
from Heather O'Reilly and wrapped up the scoring nine minutes from time with a
shot through the arms of Byrne from a tough angle.
The United States and Ireland will meet again on Saturday in Arizona.

Roundtree was a virtual unknown, having appeared only in "What Do You Say to a Naked Lady?" (1970), when he was chosen by Gordon Parks to play "Shaft". Based on his success, he landed a variety of roles that included the manager of a daredevil motorcycle rider in "Earthquake" (1974). In 1975, he co-starred with Peter O'Toole in the title role of "Man Friday", a retelling of the "Robinson Crusoe" story in which Friday is not "civilized," and Crusoe commits suicide. After appearing in the disastrous "Inchon" (1982), film roles in the 80s became sporadic and Roundtree found himself generally playing law enforcement types, like the police commissioner in "Maniac Cop" (1988) and the police captai...

I hate reading stuff like this, but it's still important to know this stuff. Not that this is any excuse to grab the potato chips instead.....BUT, your "healthy" snacks may not be doing your diet any favors. :-(
Yogurt with Granola
So tasty together, BUT a half-cup of granola to your yogurt can easily add up to 300 calories and 15 grams of fat.
A Smoothie
Once you blend in milk or yogurt, plus bananas, strawberries, or other calorie-dense fruits and fruit juices, you're talking 300-400 calories—and that's before you add in protein powder, peanut butter, or seeds and nuts.
Each grape has about 5 calories, but because they are small, it's very easy to just keep eating and eating. So you can consume more than 200 calories' worth before you know it—without any of the protein you ideally want to have in a snack.
Tuna Salad and Crackers
These handy snack kits look so weight loss-friendly, but a can of mayo-infused tuna and three to four crackers offers around 300 calories. Leaving out the mayo and eating the tuna WITHOUT the crackers is a much lower calorie option.
Hummus Dip and Pita Chips
Pita chips may be low in fat, but are just as calorie-packed as any kind of fried chip—and if you don't limit yourself to a reasonable amount of hummus, this snack can suddenly put you up around 300-calories or so.

That's not true - fees have already started to get raised on them. Starz for example got 30M a year in their first deal, and demanded more than $500 for their next. It's why Starz content is no longer on NF.
And as far as their model - they are just a different version of Cable and Sat. A non-telco on demand IPTV service is the most apt comparison. Its equally as valid if they can figure out how to get more content. And they'll figure that out quickly if Viacom and the like are no longer feeling beholden to their Cable/Sat partners. The only reason they stay away from netflix now if their traditional bed fellows prefer that they do so. But that changes if D* is no longer in the picture.
You just made my point. They fail quickly when the prices go up. And, no, they are not the same model. They do not own the pipeline which cable and satellite do. Huge difference.

Hanoi : Michelin's recommendations
Vietnam's capital lies on the Red River, from which it is protected by a huge dike. The city grew up from numerous small villages dotted around various lakes. Its charm comes from its restored pagodas, the tube-houses of the Old Quarter (once home to 36 guilds) and the colonial houses of the old French Quarter. Over the past few years, modern skyscrapers have extended the city upwards rather than outwards, increasing its population density and adding to its noise and bustling activity.

May 25, 2016
Tallahassee, FL-January 22, 2013
Florida's state workers haven't seen a raise in nearly seven years. But a new bill filed in the state house may soon change that.
Under House Bill 289, State Representative Michelle Rehwinkel Vasilinda is proposing to give state workers a 7 percent raise. She says it amounts to a 1 percent pay bump for every year they've been without one.
"I don't know any business that's worth its salt that has stayed in business that hasn't given their folks a raise in six years," said Vasilinda.
Despite the state's multi-billion dollar deficit, Vasilinda says the time is right for state workers to get a raise.
"I do think now is the time. First of all we are growing, second of all, the economy is growing and we will have a surplus this year," said Vasilinda.
She proposes paying for the raise through eliminating certain tax exemptions and adding an Internet sales tax to boost the state's revenue. Vasilinda says the raise will also help make the state's work force more competitive.
At this time, the bill has yet to be assigned to a committee. If the bill does pass, it will take effect on July 1, 2013.
While Florida's Governor Rick Scott says he's for giving state workers a raise, he wants to see it done on a merit-based system.

Mimi Kennedy
Birth Name: Mimi Kennedy
Born: 09/25/1949
Birth Place: Rochester, New York, USA
Moving to drama, Kennedy had a recurring role on the CBS primetime soaps "Knots Landing", for which she was also a writer and story editor. She scored as the proper, bigoted Ruth Sloan in the cult hit "Homefront" (CBS, 1991-93) and played a variation on the role as a snobbish socialite in "Savannah" (The WB, 1996-97). Returning to sitcoms, Kennedy was cast as the mother of a free-spirited woman who marries a blueblood in the highly touted sitcom "Dharma & Greg" (ABC, 1997- ).While her TV-movie work began with "Thin Ice" (CBS, 1981), Kennedy is better recalled as the wife and mother of a practical joking family who finds the joke is on them in "Mr. Boggedy" (ABC, 1986), and its 1987 seque...

it's cold.
so I have switched from my usual espresso to plain ol' brewed coffee.
I haven't posted in this thread before. But, to make every puke etc, I just wanted to tell you I'm brewing up a nice pot of Chock Full o'Nuts. From a can.
I used to make 4 double-espressos to take before a race. I even distilled it down to 50% volume so I can take it all in a single shot...

not sure if there are 'world market' stores elsewhere, but their coffee is really good imo. $8 for 2lbs. On my 2nd cup.
Life is too short to drink foultasting coffee. In the morning Indian Malabar espresso or my inlaw sent Hawaiian beans , Gaggia grinder and Gaggia Classic machine. At work I bought a used small pro machine with a Mazza grinder, OK italian espresso beans. One cup in the morning and one after lunch at work.
I am drinking coffee. Right now in fact. The nice nasty gut brew from work made out of 200 scoops of bulk folgers acquired at Costco or some such place. Ulcers ROCK!
(and yeah, I do have both those things in my kitchen)
Alas, tomorrow I am going to finish off the last of my Kona that I got on Christmas eve. I'm usually a two a cup drip or one americano a day guy, I used to work as a barista so I've cut back a lot from those days.

I know this isn't the response your looking for but in 2010 in the big horns of wyoming during rifle season the bulls were still bugling. It was unseasonablly warm during that mid October hunt so I think the bulls were confused and thought the rut was still going on.
Of course, many states have muzzeloading rifle seasons that are closer to the rut than centerfire rifle.

I really ike this idea! That would be a lot of fun.
Yes, I am evil enough!
No, the idea is too horrible for me!
I have not found something similar, so I think it is a funny idea to "map a trap". Perhaps the older guys still know or own the "Grimtooth's Traps" books.
This can be a simple mechanism, like the standard wire, that will release a bunch of arrows out of the wall or a complicated method like taking the gold coin from the table releases a weight that slides down a tube,hitting a lever that releases a ball that...you know, such a crazy machine thing.
The location can be everywhere: in the woods, a dungeon corridor, a room etc.
The motto should be: The weird, the better!
I really ike this idea! That would be a lot of fun.
I like! Already devious plans are forming in my head
Oh, and I fully expect whoever puts up the challenge to include an Admiral Ackbar spoof with it as well.

Grimtooth's rocks! I had some of those books and always wanted the rest. Would love to see what people come up with.
great idea.. I'm working on some traps for my current challenge - but they are simple in comparison to what could be thought out... MUHAHHAHAHHAA... and yes, I still have a couple of Grimtooth books in the book case somewhere - loved those books.
Remember an simple "one skull" trap ... you make a long mud pit that the players have to wade through... there is a pressure plate that activates when all players are in the mud ... then a small door opens in the wall - by the player bringing up the rear - releasing a small duck. So the last player says "DUCK"

Is DSPAM fully intergrated with the ZCS antispam??

Printable View
Is DSPAM fully intergrated with the ZCS antispam??
i saw the wiki a guide how to install it so I´m confused about this issue
Yes. Since version 3.1 it's been fully integrated.
Is there any documentation on this?
Not really, there isn't much need for documentation. There's always the DSPAM site for further information. What is it you need to know?
Looking at the DSPAM site their seems to be a web interface, How easy would it be to make this work with the Zimbra implementation
the dspam that is bundled with zimbra suppresses building of the stats file for the web interface and does not include the web interface itself.
zimbra takes care of training, quarantining and periodic housekeeping for you, so there's no immediate need to use the web interface other than to provide pretty graphs, but they would not be integrated with the zimbra admin ui anyway.
i would imagine the dspam support will get better integrated as the releases go on, it's a fairly new addition and looking at email headers i'm not convinced its doing a very good job in its current default setup.
Yeah.... We're (post 4.0) going to up the dspam weight, but if you want to do this at home, modify /opt/zimbra/conf/salocal.cf.in
header DSPAM_SPAM X-DSPAM-Result =~ /^Spam$/
describe DSPAM_SPAM DSPAM claims it is spam
score DSPAM_SPAM 0.5
header DSPAM_HAM X-DSPAM-Result =~ /^Innocent$/
describe DSPAM_HAM DSPAM claims it is ham
score DSPAM_HAM -0.1
Change the score lines to assign a score to dspam - currently, we add .5 for spam, subtract .1 for ham - and restart with zmcontrol to rewrite the salocal.cf file.
I am not clear what this means what is the scale here? Should I up the spam score from .5 to 1 or should I I make it 10?
If .5 is conservative what would be a sensible less conservative value?
By default, spamassassin declares message with a 5.0+ score to be spam. So if you set "score DSPAM_SPAM 0.5" to 5.0 and "score DSPAM_HAM -0.1" to -5.0 I would think that would have the effect of completely replacing spamassassin's 'decision' about the message with that of dspam.Quote:
Originally Posted by mintra
So it seems that 0.5 and -0.1 are extremely conservative, in fact they render dspam essentially turned off.
A more practical approach might be to balance the spamassassin and dspam results with scores in the range of 2 or 3 (+ and -). Ultimately, you will need to experiment with these settings and review the results against your particular mix of mail/spam.
You can look in the headers for each message to see exactly what spamassassin and dpsam have 'decided'.
Be aware that both of these tools need to be trained before they will reach their greatest accuracy and this may have an impact on the 'right' settings for you.
generally speaking, the more rules with smaller scores that are used, the better. it's very dangerous to rely on a single mechanism to decide, so the most I would set dpsam to be is about 2.5, personally - especially as the default zimbra of use dspam can produce erratic results.
you're better off installing extra SA components - in particular, razor2, dcc and rules_du_jour. you should find if you take the time to configure these well and keep any maximum single rule score to about 2.5-3, you will get very good results. I can't remember the last time a spam ended up in my inbox, and i get about 2-500 spams a day.

NFPA Members save an additional 10%.
NFPA 1: Fire Code is your complete safety source for fire alarm, sprinkler, and life safety issues.
NFPA 1: Fire Code presents an integrated approach to fire code regulation and hazard management that gives fire marshals, architects, engineers, building owners -- and anyone involved with hazardous materials -- a comprehensive source of essential safety knowledge. Adopted in jurisdictions throughout North America, the Code addresses all aspects of fire protection, fire safety, and life safety through extracts from more than 50 NFPA® codes and standards, along with references to many more. Each edition reflects updates in industry benchmarks such as NFPA 13: Installation of Sprinkler Systems, NFPA 25: Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems, NFPA 54: National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 72®: National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code, and NFPA 101®: Life Safety Code®.
The 2012 edition of NFPA 1: Fire Code improves your ability to ensure occupant safety with added mandates for sprinklers in all new buildings three or more stories in height and CO detection in new residential occupancies, as specified by NFPA 101: Life Safety Code. This edition also requires floor fire protection for new non-sprinklered one- and two-family dwellings. In another important change benefitting fire and life safety, the Code specifies that two-way radio communication enhancement systems may be required by the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) per provisions in NFPA 72.
The 2009 edition of NFPA 1: Fire Code introduces the Code's new title and increases the amount of practical guidance available to users. Instead of listing references, this edition of the renamed NFPA 1: Fire Code provides extracted text addressing interior finish, contents and furnishings, and dust control requirements for industrial hazards. Fire flow requirements have been moved from the Annex to the body of the Code to ensure consistency among jurisdictions. New requirements address motion picture and television production work done on location, away from the main studio soundstages. Three new Annexes provide information and guidelines for fire fighters and other emergency responders, to help improve community and fire fighter safety.
The 2006 edition of NFPA 1: Uniform Fire Code™ adds critical information through new chapters. New Chapter 6: Classification of Occupancy defines occupancy classifications to enhance your understanding of requirements and improve compliance and enforcement. New Chapter 32: Motion Picture and Television Production Studio Soundstage and Production Facilities works in conjunction with NFPA 140 to provide a minimum level of fire and life safety on the sets of these activities. New Chapter 33: Outside Storage of Tires includes provisions to keep tire storage safe from all potential sources of ignition. New Chapter 34: General Storage presents provisions that apply to indoor and outdoor storage of materials representing the broad range of combustibles.
The 2003 edition of NFPA 1: Uniform Fire Code integrates the two most widely adopted fire codes in the United States into a single Code. A joint venture between NFPA and the Western Fire Chiefs Association, NFPA 1: Uniform Fire Code incorporates provisions from both the Fire Prevention Code and the WFCA's Uniform Fire Code, to create a document that serves communities and jurisdictions nationwide. NFPA 1: UFC is fully compatible with regulatory adoption procedures, with separate sections containing provisions for administration and code enforcement, occupancies, processes, equipment, and hazardous materials. Essential extracts and references to more than 130 NFPA codes and standards make the code official's job easier.
Interested in other editions of NFPA 1: Fire Code? Use the drop down menu above to select the edition year you need.
NFPA®'s Redline PDF contains both the current NFPA document and a Redline version of the document which shows changes from the previous edition marked in color. With the Redline you can quickly spot changed sections and tell specifically what has been changed from the previous edition, saving time and confusion.

Florida Republicans outraise Dems at end of year
Published: Friday, January 11, 2013 at 12:56 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 11, 2013 at 12:56 p.m.
TALLAHASSEE — Florida Republicans continue to outraise the state's Democrats despite Democratic success at the polls.
Campaign reports filed on Thursday showed that the Republican Party of Florida raised nearly $2.2 million in cash donations, while the Florida Democratic Party took in just over $424,000. The reports cover money taken in by the parties from Nov. 2 until Dec. 31.
A large amount donated to Republicans came from GOP elected officials. House Speaker Will Weatherford steered $640,000 from a political committee he controls, while Senate President Don Gaetz donated $70,000 from his re-election account.
Some of the major donors to the parties include companies such as Disney, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Florida and Florida Power & Light. Private prison vendor The GEO Group donated more than $50,000 to Republicans.

Seawolf Atomic Submarine
Made in England by Sutcliffe Pressings in 1963, this toy was named after the USS Seawolf, the second nuclear submarine after Nautilus. While the front of the box says the submarine is atomic, the side panel admits that this version is actually clockwork. It has been loaned to the museum by one of its curators, who owned the submarine as a child.

* Marbling Paper With Shaving Cream and Liquid Watercolor

Great variation on marbling paper. So, how did they do it in Colonial Times? I love 4th grade questions...

these look awesome - i love the randomness of the prints! when we did this last year, our results were kind of different. maybe we mixed the colors together more? your post makes me want to do this again! the funniest part of when we did it was that my little one (2.5 at the time) said, "this art smells like daddy!"

I love the way the colors look sitting in the shaving cream!!

Yours was much prettier than our outcome, but my daughter had a blast making this fun mess!
We experimented with both glass colors, liquid watercolors and food coloring ... some of them have a crazy beautiful sheen to them!

I have a question about this activity. Do you have to wipe away the shaving cream and start fresh after each child's turn placing the paper on the foam?

@ Mis Gen --
Great question!!
We leave the shaving cream and just work on top of the old stuff. The more batches you do the colors start to get a little gray but you CAN get several different ones done before you have to start all over. I do encourage the kids to think about what colors they're using while they are marbling and try not to use more than 3 or 4 different colors or it starts to get muddy.

I was just curious if there has been any developement with the zbrush applink, or if you guys are using a seperate process for moving sculpts/meshes between 3d coat and zbrush. I just bought 4R2, and I have to admit, learning the UI and the generic .obj importing has been kicking my butt. (
I have just asked for an adaption of the Zbrush Applink for R2 - the Developer should already know that the Zbrush 4 does not work any more.
Apparently there's no freaking manual provided with the program, just a "getting started" guide) Makes me appreciate 3dCoat a LOT more public/style_emoticons/3dc_emo/smile.gif

Well, whatever the reason, you are in luck this weekend when the Royals host the Chicago White Sox and fans are treated to a hat-a-night at Kauffman Stadium!
The "Hats Off Weekend" begins Friday with a Royals Visor promotion – presented by Budweiser – for the first 20,000 fans in attendance. The adult-beverage sponsorship means it's limited to fans 21 and over, so bring those IDs!
However…if you can't make it Friday or you are younger than 21, get out to the ballpark on Saturday and be one of the first 20,000 fans to pick up your Royals Cowboy Hat, presented by AT&T.
Then, on Sunday, you can't go wrong with the special "Salute to Buck O'Neil" Monarchs Cap. The Monarchs' caps are annual favorites at Kauffman Stadium during the Salute to the Negro Leagues event. The first 20,000 fans into The K to watch the series finale with the ChiSox will pick up this season's navy blue caps that have Buck's No. 22 stitched in the side…CAPPING a weekend of hat tippin' and Royals winnin' at Kauffman Stadium!

Washington Some key lawmakers are talking about why the U.S. government has issued a global terror alert and closed nearly two dozen U.S. diplomatic posts in the Muslim world.
The top Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee says the moves were prompted by the most serious terrorist threat he's seen in years. Without giving specifics, Georgia Sen. Saxby Chambliss told NBC's "Meet the Press" that "the chatter" intercepted by U.S. intelligence agencies is "very reminiscent of what we saw pre-9/11."
The top Democrat on the House intelligence committee told ABC's "This Week" that talk of a "major attack" came from "high-level people in al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula." The Maryland congressman, Dutch Ruppersberger, didn't offer any details.
Rep. Peter King, a New York Republican who chairs a House panel on counterterrorism and intelligence, told ABC that the information "was specific as to how enormous it was going to be." He says it included dates but not locations of possible attacks.
King called the threat "a wake-up call." He says in some ways al-Qaida is stronger than it was before 9/11 because it has "mutated" and spread.

Reasons for the heightened use of temps, contractors and the like begin with the shaky business climate. Despite growth and profits, companies have been loath to hire full-time and part-time staff in case the economy suddenly tanks again.
Using temporary workers at the start of a recovery is nothing new. But other factors behind the contingent expansion are less tied to the business cycle. These include cost-savings. Although contractor fees can exceed the hourly wage of a regular employee, especially in the United States where employer-provided health care is standard, the total compensation of a regular employee typically exceeds that of contingents.
Another emerging rationale for contingent labor is business agility. That is, temps and contractors can help companies respond rapidly to changes in the competitive landscape, which are coming ever-more quickly. Roughly 15 percent of respondents to a recent Workforce Management survey of nearly 1,200 readers said a primary reason for hiring contingents was to "be faster in shifting business strategy." A related motive to turn to contractors is to find scarce abilities. In the Workforce survey, the most-cited reason for the use of contingent labor was to "access specialized skills." Four out of 10 respondents selected that factor.
The quest for specialty skills includes demand for professionals in fields ranging from technology to health care to events management to human resources itself. Despite the high unemployment rate overall, companies have complained about the difficulty of filling niche positions, and they are turning to contingent labor to meet those needs.
"The demand is increasing for the higher-level skill sets," says Joanie Ruge, chief employment analyst with staffing firm Randstad. "It's going to get more and more competitive to find top talent."
Better-performing companies are particularly interested in highly skilled contingents. Research firm the Institute for Corporate Productivity in 2010 found that 23 percent of higher-performing organizations—those better on a variety of business measures—had contingent workers in highly skilled functions such as engineering and science. That was roughly twice the rate of lower-performing organizations.
Although many contingent workers would rather have the security of a full-time, regular staff position, some—including high-skilled professionals—are choosing to make their living as free agents. More and more may go this route now that the U.S. Supreme Court has left the 2010 health care reform law largely intact. It promises to make people less-dependent on companies to get health insurance—freeing them up to join the "free-agent nation" and put additional pressure on companies to work with contingents.

Big Run Powers Iowa State Past Texas, 81-64
How It Happened
The Cyclones started off slow as the Longhorns went on a 7-0 run to kick things off. The Cyclone offense would kick in after a turnover by UT's Brady Sanders led to a 3-pointer by Jadda Buckley. Iowa State would then go on a 12-0 run to lead the Longhorns 12-7, holding the lead for the remainder of the first half.
In total, the Cyclones would capitalize on nine Longhorn turnovers with 15 Iowa State points in the first half.
In the second half, the Cyclones and Longhorns would go back-and-forth until the 7:02 mark, when Iowa State started out on a 13-0 run to give Iowa State a 64-51 lead. The highlight came at the tail end of the run, when Nikki Moody stole the inbounds pass for a layin and an and-one. The Cyclones would hang on to win 81-64.
Cyclone Game Ball Goes to…
Hallie Christofferson. Christofferson tallied her 18th double-double of her career with 20 points and 11 rebounds. She led the team in both categories. Christofferson made only four field goals, but came in big at the charity stripe, where she went 11-of-12.
Cyclone Notes
*Iowa State has hit a three pointer in an NCAA record 607 consecutive games.
*Christofferson tallied her 18th career double-double.
*Iowa State is 17-1 when scoring 70 or more points.
* Iowa State placed six in double-difgures
*Seanna Johnson recorded her 14th-career game in double digits (11).
*Tonight's crowd of 13,187 was the seventh-largest in Iowa State history and the largest since 2004.

I have spent around 5 hours of work on this and the program got all laggy etc... If you look good at the hull plating you maybe can see the windows of the crew compartiments. They are hard to see in seperate, but if you zoom in you see it. Armory is magnificent! You can see whole rows of photon-torpedo launchers and very large phasers. On the three enbankments around the bridge you can see pulse-cannons.
1st IMG is of the ship

These water color paints are known for their clarity, texture and consistent quality. This set of three colors, red/yellow/blue can be combined to make any color and is available in 20 ml (.68 fluid oz) or 50 ml (1.7 fluid oz) or 250ml (8.45 fluid oz) plastic jars.
The Colour Circle paints are based on Goethe's "Theory of Colours". The three primary colours, red, blue and yellow have a high spectral purity and transparency. Using these colours, a complete colour circle can be created. The colour circle paints are particularly suited for use in kindergartens and the first years of school.
We also have Red, Blue or Yellow in the 250 ml (8.45 fluid oz) plastic jar. Each color in this size is sold individually.
The pigments contain no heavy metals or dangerous chemicals and are completely non-toxic. The colors are based on the natural gradation found in Goethe's theory of the twelve-part color wheel.
We have a few 20 ml sized jars of Lemon Yellow paint. This is a different color than the Circle Yellow.
Made in Germany.

As ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources on May 15, 2013
H.R. 1673 would require the Secretary of the Interior to transfer administrative jurisdiction over 1 million acres of land to the Secretary of the Navy. Those lands would be used by the Navy for military purposes. Based on information provided by the Bureau of Land Management, CBO estimates that implementing the legislation would have no significant impact on the federal budget. Enacting H.R. 1673 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.
Under current law, the affected lands are temporarily withdrawn for military use. H.R. 1673 would prohibit certain activities that could generate receipts on the affected lands in the future; however, because CBO expects that those lands would not generate any receipts over the next 10 years, we estimate that enacting the bill would not affect direct spending. In addition, because those lands are already managed by the federal government, we estimate that implementing the legislation would not affect the costs of managing the lands. Finally, CBO estimates that any additional costs to prepare the legal description of the affected lands, as required under the bill, would total less than $5,000.
H.R. 1673 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal governments.
