Alec Baldwin Deserves An Apology, Kind Of!
by Daily Dish
posted Feb 20 2013 5:30AM
It's time to take a stand! If you missed it, I reported yesterday that there were rumors that Khloe Kardashian got the boot from co-hosting The X Factor… but now sister Kim Kardashian is saying hold on, just wait a minute…people lie on the "daily" and when she was asked what happened, she replied with "Probably nothing." My sources are saying that no final decision has been made about Khloe Kardashian being let go BUT Simon Cowell is definitely thinking about re-staffing for next season.
An apology is in order for Alec Baldwin! Another story that leaked yesterday was that he called a New York Post reporter a racial slur, followed by telling him "I want to choke you to death." Well guess what? The audio tape of the incident has been released and it proves his innocence! Turns out that there's no mention of any racial slurs at ALL on the tape! Plus Alec is caught saying "I want you to choke to death" instead of "I want to choke you to death," which is what he said he did. Not much better, but a heck of a lot better than what everyone was accusing him of!
Everyone get excited for this! Are Pixar and Disney about to release a fourth installment of Toy Story? We all thought Toy Story 3 would be the last since it had a great ending but there are rumors floating around that there will be another one! I'll let you know if there is any official confirmation but I say we can totally go for Buzz Light Year to the rescue times four!
More baby news! Yesterday it was Fergie and today Mario Lopez! Turns out Mario Lopez and his wife are expecting their second child together late this summer. What's cute about it, their two year old daughter Gia broke the news on Extra with a big sign that said she was going to be a big sister!
Speaking of babies… looks like the boys are already chasing after Jay-Z and Beyonce's baby Blue Ivy! Alicia Keys revealed that her son Egypt has a crush on their one year old daughter and even kissed Blue! Jay-Z apparently wasn't too happy about it and called Alicia Keys' husband and said watch your son! HOW CUTE! I'm sure he was joking but I love the idea of Jay-Z being a protective daddy!
Shocking announcement from Clive Davis! He revealed in his new memoir, The Sound Track Of My Life yesterday that he is indeed bisexual. Clive Davis has actually been married and divorced twice, and spent the past 20 years in relationships with two men. So what else did this annoucement start? Kelly Clarkson going after Clive Davis! Yesterday, Clive Davis started speaking about his new memoir where he talks about working with people like Whitney Houston, Bruce Springsteen, and more in addition to his sexuality! So who else made the list? Kelly Clarkson! The second that Kelly Clarkson found out what was written about her, she went to her blog immediately! She wrote, "So I just heard Clive Davis is releasing a memoir and spreading false information about me and my music. I refuse to be bullied and I just have to clear up his memory lapses and misinformation for myself and for my fans. It feels like a violation. Growing up is awesome because you learn you don't have to cower to anyone - even Clive Davis. First, he says I burst into 'hysterical sobbing' in his office when he demanded 'Since You Been Gone' be on my album. Not true at all. I cried because he hated [Because of You] and told me verbatim that I was a "sh*tty writer who should be grateful for the gifts that he bestows upon me," Clarkson says. "He continued on about how the song didn't rhyme and how I should just shut up and sing. This was devastating coming from a man who I, as a young girl, considered a musical hero and was so honored to work with. But I continued to fight for the song and the label relented. And it became a worldwide hit. He didn't include that in the book." YOU GO GIRL! That's why we love her!

I then put the scope on the mount and gave a test ride in the backyard with an illuminated reticle. The drive's sinusoidal tracking error on the OC 6.6" drive was almost as bad as the 3" original Meade gear! I then sent him some emails describing the problem and got essentially the same response that John got. This error was too much for the autoguider on my camera.
I then took the worm and worm gear to a local machinist and he said that it was "fair" and he could not do anything unless I would have to pay some serious wampum to replace it. I was peeved to say the least!
I took it home and as I was sitting in my plush chair, I removed the 6.6" worm gear out of the box and put it edgewise on my lap. Then I got the worm assembly and placed it on the gear and got the teeth to mesh. I was thinking where to go from there when I noticed that the worm resting on the gear did not align to the large gear's plane. It was nearly 2 degrees off! I then flipped the gear, the same! I flipped the worm housing, the same! I tried to get to mesh in the plane and to 1 degree to the opposite side, it would flop back! I then mounted the whole thing back onto the mount and added a shim to canter the worm about 1 degree from the 6.6" worm gear plane. I took it outside that night and had a reduction of the sine error peaks of less than 20%! I then put the ccd camera on and it guided!
The old Meade drive electronics had been gutted long ago and replaced by my own circuit design with an autoguider option. I still use the original joystick with trimtabs. Still works to this day. I did the two solar events and imaged at a star party with this scope this past year.

I guess that's easy to say if you haven't paid $984 for... this thing. I find this completely indefensible. I think the author is 100% justified in writing this and letting the community know what we are dealing with here. There are multiple issues, the gear is just one of many. This looks worse than something built in middleschool shop class at a School for the Blind. Shoddy. And quite possibly the worst customer service I have ever heard of, very disappointing to hear.
It looks like the spur gear was damaged, and it sounds like he offered to replace it. The rest of this seems petty to me since it looks like it would work okay. GW

1) When I got mine about 6-7 years ago, he had a Ford Motor Company email address.
2) What edge break? I had to do that myself!
3) The worm (spur) gear is made from aluminum and it looked good when I got it.
4) There were burrs in the shaft hole as well.
5) The worm itself wasn't what I expected and the shaft that is mounted to has a rough surface as pictured and was slightly bent. The shaft is springy anyway. Mr Clinard responded to my questions of these observations as a non-problem.
6) My motor is of a different type of AC motor than what Dr. Hayes got. I had to supply the AC cord and the buss bar for the cords and the capacitor. My motor is reversable according to the motor wire in which the capacitor is hooked to, a switch could do that for northern/southern hemisphere adjustment. That was a no problem for me anyway. I made a separate insulating housing to cover the motor with. I used a 3 pronged AC cable for safety.
7) I got the same grip marks on the worm shaft standoffs.
8) I am early forced retired and have a limited income from my savings. I could not afford a Paramount type mount. I could not fight this "machinist" due to my income.

I think it's a real service to the community that Dr. Hayes took the time to carefully document this and post it.

The vast majority of astronomical companies are owned and operated by a staff of competent, friendly people. They want happy customers (remember, a happy customer is a repeat customer) and guard their good reputations jealously. Most are willing to bend over backwards to see that a problem is resolved to the customer's satisfaction. But what can the consumer do if he or she is dissatisfied with a manufacturer or distributor?
Begin on the right foot. Before returning a defective piece of merchandise, always speak to the manufacturer first about the problem. Request instructions for the most expeditious way to return the item for replacement or refund. Conform to the directions precisely, but to protect yourself, always follow up the conversation with a letter. In it, repeat the nature of the problem as well as the desired outcome. Send the letter by certified mail, return receipt requested, and keep a copy for your records.
Allow the company a reasonable length of time to respond to your complaint, typically two to four weeks. If, after that time, a satisfactory resolution has not been reached, write to the company again and inquire as to the delay. State that you expect a response within a given period of time, say ten business days. Once again, send the letter by certified mail, return receipt requested, and keep a copy for your records. If there is still no response, call the company and find out the owner's name. Write to him or her directly, recounting all that has happened since the item was ordered.
By now, the predicament should have been resolved, but if it has not, then it's time to take action. The major astronomical periodicals do not have on-staff consumer advocates, yet they do take an active interest in consumer satisfaction with all who advertise in their magazines. Write to them with your complaint, being certain to send a copy to the president/owner of the offending company. In addition, send a copy of the letter to the Astronomical League. The League is also interested in customer satisfaction, and may offer assistance. If you suspect mail fraud, also contact your local postal inspector or complete Form 8165, Mail Fraud Complaint Questionnaire, which is available at all United States post offices. Return the completed form to the postmaster or mail it to the following address: Chief Postal Inspector; U.S. Postal Service; 475 L'Enfant Plaza SW, Room 3021; Washington, DC, 20260-2100. You should also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20580.
Most consumer advocates recommend charging all mail orders to a major credit card; do not use a check or money order, if possible. Using a credit card gives you certain powers that are not available any other way. On the back of every credit card's monthly statement, there are instructions that clearly describe steps to be taken in the event of a consumer problem. Usually, the card requires that the consumer describe in specific detail the exact nature of the problem and provide copies of all receipts and documentation. The charge will then be put in contest until the problem is resolved. If a charge is contested, the consumer is not responsible for any interest that may accrue as a result. When a final determination is made, either a credit will be issued to the charge account or the balance plus interest will be due.
Contesting a charge should be viewed as a last resort measure. Only put a charge in contest when a bona fide problem exists and the vendor refuses to cooperate. For instance, just because you decided that you don't like an item anymore is not reason enough to contest a charge, but poor quality or workmanship is. See the difference?
Posted 28 January 2013 - 12:34 PM
I get that many astro-businesses are small outgrowths from another business that provides the owner a liveable income. And I admire the entrepreneurs that market to our small hobby, in most cases it can only be a labor of love.
But this example would indicate Optic-Craft is not in the machining business with both feet, let alone the astronomy business.
Posted 28 January 2013 - 12:40 PM
If we knew the whole story here, there would be some other variable. Perhaps the proprietor is ill, or perhaps there was merely personality clash. There is always a chance that someone was out to rip someone off, but I am finding that very hard to believe. I, for one, simply would not care about whether a piece of flat metal was cut with a mill or by hand, so long as it functions. Others may certainly differ.
But before we condemn someone who has not had his say and who has served the astronomical community for many years, perhaps we ought to investigate a little more. I note that most "satisfied customers" listed on his web site were high-profile institutions, and that may give you a tip right there that he may not be operating with the mindset of cosmetically-concerned amateurs.

BETHESDA, Md. (WUSA) -- What could drive someone to kill 3 children as they slept by hitting them over the head with a metal mallet? Plus kill the childrens' mother and grandmother?
This has been the question baffling a Montgomery County, Maryland, community and law enforcement for decades. Thirty five years later, the killer is still on the loose.
By all outward appearances, all was well with the Bishop family.
"They look like the all-American family," says Montgomery County Sheriff Darren Popkin, who has worked this case for 20 years. "They appeared to be very happy."
However, according to Popkin and Montgomery County Police, on March 1, 1976, William Bradford Bishop, a U.S. State Department official, left work early saying he didn't feel well. Then, according to law enforcement, Bishop went to Montgomery Mall and bought a gas can and small metal mallet at Sears. Then, he drove to the other side of the mall, filled up the family station wagon with gas as well as the gas can he had just purchased. He then went to the bank and withdrew almost all the money: $400.
MORE: Wanted Information on William Bradford Bishop
Afterwards he made the 15-minute drive to the neighborhood of Carderock Springs in Bethesda, walked into his house and killed his entire family using the mallet.
"He went from room to room," says Popkin. "And one at a time hit them around the head and and killed each one of them."
Popkin says Bishop killed his wife first. Then, he killed his 3 young sons as they slept in their beds. Shortly after this, Popkin says Bishop's mother entered the house after walking the family dog. She was the last to be killed.
"It was just a horrific scene," says Popkin.
What happens next is perhaps just as horrific. Authorities say Bishop puts his dead family in the back of the family's maroon station wagon and headed south for a 6-hour drive to North Carolina.
"A park ranger saw fire burning and immediately went to see what was going on. What he found was just absolutely grizzly. The discovery of 5 bodies in a shallow grave that was burning," says Popkin.
It took a week before police could identify the bodies: 68-year-old Lobelia Bishop, 37-year-old Annette, 14-year-old William, 10-year-old Brent and 5-year-old Geoffrey.
In the time it took to identify the dead family members, William Bradford Bishop had disappeared.
Bishop's station wagon was found abandoned in the Tennessee mountains. Blood was found in the car. Bishop's diplomatic passport has never been found.
"I do believe Mr. Bishop is still alive," says Sheriff Popkin. "We do believe he's out there somewhere."
Bishop's career with the State Department, and before that the CIA, took him all over the world. He is fluent in 5 languages. While he worked at the State Department, says Popkin, one of Bishop's duties was making passports.
"He had the access to create whatever he wanted," says Popkin. Plus Popkin adds, "There was no verifying names on plane tickets back then in 1976 like there is now."
Over the past 35 years there have been Bishop sightings in Stockholm, Sweden, Sorrento, Italy, and Basel, Switzerland. Two years ago there was a report he was dead in Hong Kong. As recently as a year ago, a report he was dead in France outside of Paris.
"It was not Mr. Bishop in either case," says Popkin. "Fingerprints verified that.
"There is nothing more that I would like to do is be able to put those handcuffs on Mr. Bishop and bring him back here."
If he is alive, William Bradford Bishop will be turning 75 in August.
As for a motive in the killings, co-workers at the time say Bishop was passed over for a promotion right before his family showed up dead. Neighbors at the time talked about financial problems and Bishop's desire for overseas work and his wife Annette's desire to stay in Maryland.
What is known for sure is Bishop was seeing a psychiatrist and taking medication for anxiety and depression, says Popkin.
But the real motive, says Popkin, won't be known until they catch their man.
The Montgomery County Sheriff's Department encourages anyone with information on this case to contact them at 240-777-7000.

Hi forum,
We upgraded to 6.0.2 this weekend, and on top of the "family mailboxes" bug, we are having some issues on our 10.5 based Macs. More specifically iCal 3.
Without "Enable delegation for Apple iCal CalDAV client" checked, I receive the following error in iCal:
"The calendar https://mail.mydomain.dk/principals/...email@example.com/ was not found on the server. Make sure the URL is correct."
Happenes on both 10.5 and 10.6.
On 10.6:
When "Enable delegation for Apple iCal CalDAV client" is enabled, I get to see my delegates under Accounts -> Delegation. I can check the calendars I want to see. All good.
On 10.5:
When "Enable delegation for Apple iCal CalDAV client" is enabled, I do not see any delegates under Accounts -> Delegation. That means that I can only see my own calendar, which is pretty critical to us. According to Bug 21489 – CalDAV: Add support for calendar delegation the bug has only been fixed for iCal 4.0, but will not be fixed for 3.x according to Comment #51.
Is there any workaround for iCal 3 or is the only way of solving the problem upgrading to Snow Leopard?
Kind regards,

Hi all!!!
This is my first post here... I am new in Zimbra's world... now I am trying Zimbra Desktop 7.2.2 GA (build 11951) and my first question is: how can I use the same address book (zinc with gmail) if I am using 3 different email accounts (@mycompany.com, @myclient.com and @mygmail.com)? I can do that but the autocomplete just works with my gmail account.
Thanks a lot for your help!

I am interested in this project, i've emailed you the specifics.
Note: The search is now closed. Many thanks to Cartographers' Guild for this wonderful site and the great opportunity to connect with an artist.
I'm the author of a forthcoming novel taking place on a fictional island and would like to commission a map. If all goes well, I anticipate commissioning additional maps that focus on different regions and time periods. I relish creative collaboration and would love to work with a cartographer who brings his or her own vision to the project.
Style: This is a realistic literary novel set in the present day. For this initial map, I'd like something that looks very contemporary, with a focus on depicting political boundaries and basic geographical features. Future maps will provide different perspectives — for instance providing detailed typography or showing antique cartography from the island's history.
Example: Here are two maps that resemble (roughly) what I have in mind.
Quality & Size: The map will be displayed on a website and included in printed and e-book editions of the book. Ideally, it will be prepared in color but will also render well in black-and-white. It should meet minimum resolution standards for full-color printing. I hope to work out the technical details in consultation with the artist.
Timeframe: My goal is to have a completed map by the first week in March.
Work Process: I will provide a guide that details the island's geography and an online workspace for managing documents. I'm happy to defer to the artist's work preferences but expect that a combination of email and phone/Skype contact will help us proceed efficiently.
Payment: I will pay for the work in installments using PayPal or another mutually agreed upon format. Please contact me at the email address below to discuss terms.
Copyright: I will own all copyright. However, the creator of the map will receive prominent credit on the website and in all published editions where the map appears. In addition, the artist will have the right to display the map in a portfolio.
Contact: My name is Chris. Please contact me at foldedstory[xx]gmail.com (replacing [xx] with @).

I like NV for thesimple reason I can get to a good unit and scout it a couple times without more than a few hours drive. WY would be right there as well for the same reason but it wasn't an option.

Nevada, because it has been good to me!
I voted Co but NM is the right answer. My hunting camp is on the border of NM and CO and it cost less to hunt in NM. This year I am drawing in both states.
I also hunt mule deer in Ne.
Sorry to say this poll doesn't make much sense.
Idaho and NM don't have points to begin with, so count those out for starters.
Honestly you need to build points in as many states as possible.
depending on the species, and how soon you want to hunt that species would determine where I'd apply.
I apply for as many States and hunts that I can afford to apply in and even the hunts I can't afford. You only live once.
Good post, I've been struggling on what states to apply in myself. I'm currently building points in AZ, WY and CO, and will try to draw every year in NM. I'm struggling with Utah, as it just doesnt seen possible to ever draw a tag in that state, regardless of unit. I'm mostly an archery hunter, and the number of tags available and the draw odds in even marginal units is so small, I'm not sure it's worth it. Even though the price to build points for elk is relatively cheap, if you won't ever be able to draw the tag, what's the point?
Zim- while your post was excellent, it was to depressing! Ha!
I play the points game in Colorado & Wyoming. Have them in both states.

I buy points in NV, ca, or, wy,co,ut,and az,
I just started venturing out on points game a few years ago. It costs to play but if you are a member of this forum, hunting is one of the biggest part of your lives and IMO it is well worth it.
Btw it's total BS that colorado won't let you apply with a credit card for sheep, goat, or moose. I called and they said the fees are too much for credit card companies to handle. I said "New Mexico" does it!
Had they accepted credit cards for moose/sheep/goat I'd have about 6 pts by now, but instead I have none.
Honestly if you have the money, this game becomes much easier for you, and aren't we always talking about NOT turning this sport into a rich man's game??
Many of us can afford to front $2k for 1 tag a year, but to front $20k to apply everywhere just isn't possible for many of us.

I'm running Ubuntu, and want to find out the
UUID of a particular filesystem (not partition). I know I can use
e2label /dev/sda1 to find out the filesystem label, but there doesn't seem to be a similar way to find the
I'm running Ubuntu, and want to find out the
Another command that might be available and also works quite well for this is 'blkid'. It's part of the e2fsprogs package. Examples of it's usage:
Look up data on /dev/sda1:
Show UUID data for all partitions:
Show UUID data for all partitions in easier to read format:
(Note: in newer releases,
Show just the UUID for /dev/sda1 and nothing else:
The easiest way to do this for ext2/ext3/ext4 is:
The recommended way to do this is to do
For more on using UUIDs, see this article (from ubuntu help, but should work for any linux distro using UUIDs).
As noted in comments to this question, vol_id may not be in your path. On ubuntu it is in /sbin so the above will work. For fedora it appears to need
If other distributions have vol_id in other places then post a comment and I'll add it to this answer.
For GPT Partitioned Disks Only
On a GPT formatted disk each partition is assigned a GUID, which is a form of UUID, though probably not what the original poster was referring to. Therefore this answer is probably less helpful to the original questioner. Nevertheless I believe there's an important distinction to be noticed.
To get the GUID of partition 1 on GPT formatted disk /dev/sda, as well as its partition label and so on:
or all with:
To boot with the root of the file system being on a certain partition you would use the linux kernel parameter syntax of:
In this case you can specify just the beginning of the UUID--enough to be unique. This parameter is more primitive and can be understood by the kernel earlier in its boot process.
There's a difference in semantics between these:
A disk holds partitions, a partition holds a file system, a file system holds directories and files. For some set-ups and operating systems there are more layers.
The GUID UUID and associated label refer to a partition, but not the partition's contents. A new partition on the same disk, or a partition on a new disk will have a new GUID UUID. The same partition could hold one file system one day and another on a different day. It only exists for GPT formatted disks, but not for legacy partitioned disks. There's usually no more utility here than specifying
The other current answers refer to the UUID of a file system in some containing partition. If the file system is copied, as a whole, to another partition or hard disk that value remains the same. This UUID is useful in finding a moved file system. Therefore this is probably more pertinent to most people. Linux kernel parameter
I believe
[1] http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/init/do_mounts.c#n183
Assuming you want the UUID for sda1, you could try something like this:
Adjust sda1 accordingly. To get the UUIDs for all partitions, drop the greps and cuts, a la:
Sample output for sda1 on my desktop:
Edit: Please note that this solution, while more contrived than the udev->vol_id one, does not require root privileges, will work on any post-2005 or so kernel, and relies on tools present in any Linux distribution which are by default in the path for any user.
This seems to work for me:
You can use the following to get the UUID for a particular drive,
or you can use this to list all UUIDs for the attached media,
You can also use this to print all the UUIDs:
or this arguably simpler command, replacing
an adaptation of the second method to print all UUIDs:

- ‹ previous
The good people at SMCL love their jobs--which means they love being a part of and serving our community. They find answers, protect our intellectual freedom and provide the services and resources we need and want. What more could we ask for? I can only think of one thing. How about the chance to get to know the unique and talented individuals who make our library so wonderful? So today we kick off a blog series spotlighting various SMCL staff members and give them a chance to share even more than they already have—a little bit about themselves.
Getting to Know Tom Fortin: Who Are You and Where Are You From?
"My name is Tom Fortin, and I am a librarian with nearly 25 years of experience working in public libraries in different parts of the U.S. I am originally from Moorhead, Minnesota, in the heart of the Red River Valley of the North."
What Inspired You to Work in Libraries?
"My interest in library service is grounded in my love of the endless quest for information. As a kid, I found statistics and encyclopedias compelling and this fascination carried over into an interest in the type of reference service provided by public libraries."
What Do You Do at SMCL and Where Can We Find You?
"I am a deputy director for the library and I mostly work to support the branch managers as they work with their staff in the delivery of public service. I also help with oversight of collection development and the purchasing of new circulating materials for our patrons."
(Note: Did you know that you can suggest materials for SMCL to purchase? There's a purchase suggestion form on the library website.)
What Do You Like Most About Your Job?
"I like learning from staff about all the fun and innovative things they do to engage their communities. Whether it's programming for kids after school, displaying new materials, or finding new efficiencies in their work practices, it's always good and it shows a genuine concern staff have for doing the best they can to serve their patrons."
(Note: Check out our calendar of events to see what interests you!)
What Would You Tell People About Libraries That They Might Not Know?
"That public libraries have been very responsive to changes in technology and that we are busier now than we ever have been. The advent of the internet and e-books has only served to increase our business and we are prepared to continue to evolve with our communities in the future."
(Note: Check out our e-books for free!)
What Are You an (Un)Official Expert On?
"I am a library expert on business information. I'm a bit of a news junkie, and I love to follow the ups and downs of various companies, industries and the economy."
What Are Your Hobbies?
"I'm a runner and work out at the gym, but my favorite hobby is discovering new hiking trails in the Bay Area. I love the geography of the area and there's limitless possibility for new vistas."
What Book, Movie, and Album Would You Take With You to a Deserted Island?
"Love Medicine by Louise Erdrich, The Trip to Bountiful, and Annie Lennox's Medusa."
Who Is Your Favorite Fictional Character of All Time?
If You Could Have One Superpower, What Would It Be?
"Speed reading! (for obvious reasons)"
What is Your Go-To Dessert?
"Ice cream and ginger snaps."
(Note: Yum! Check out The Perfect Scoop by David Lebovitz for a gingersnap ice cream recipe.)
In One Word, What Do Libraries Mean to You?

Source Naturals Resveratrol 100 contains 100mg of pure Resveratrol, which has recently been shown to support healthy metabolism and aging. Resveratrol 100 also supports the cardiovascular and immune systems by providing antioxidant protection that is needed for healthy blood flow, healthy capillaries, and cholesterol wellness.*
We all want to live long, vibrant and healthy lives. At one time intervention in the aging process was regarded as mere fantasybut today it is within our reach due to breakthroughs in nutritional science.
Resveratrol, a compound that is abundant in red wine, has been making headlines recently for its anti-aging potential and its well-documented antioxidant and cardiovascular benefits. Resveratrol has been shown in new research at Harvard Medical School to increase the lifespan of yeast cellsa finding that may help explain the lifeextending effects of the Mediterranean diet.
Researchers at Harvard Medical School recently made headlines when they identified a plant molecule they believe may hold the key to slowing the human aging process. The compound, Resveratrol, is produced by grapevines and other plants in response to environmental stress.
The groundbreaking study, reported in the journal Nature, showed that Resveratrol mimics the life-extending effects of calorie restriction and increases the lifespan of yeast cells by up to 80%. Resveratrol was found to activate certain enzymes that influence the genes that regulate aging. This research may help explain the long-established association between moderate red wine consumption and cardiovascular health and longevity.
Resveratrol is a phytoestrogen, which may protect breast, prostate, and endometrial tissue, according to animal and in vitro research.
Resveratrol was found to support healthy mammary and skin tissue in mice by suppressing damaging free radicals.
Resveratrol may support healthy circulation, according to human and animal studies.
Resveratrol has been shown to reduce LDL (bad cholesterol) oxidation and to promote healthy HDL (good cholesterol) levels.
Resveratrol was found to inhibit the Cox-1 and Cox-2 enzymes, which are involved with cellular irritation and cellular growth and regeneration, according to in vitro studies. Recent research focuses on its role in suppressing Cox-2 via the action of NFkappa B, an important DNA regulating factor.
Most publicity about Resveratrol focuses on its presence in grape skins and red wine. However, this beneficial compound is found in other plants. Source Naturals Resveratrol is a standardized extract of Hu Zhang root, a celebrated traditional Chinese herb. This offers consumers the advantage of a non-alcoholic source. Each tablet contains 500 mg of Hu Zhang extract, yielding 40 mg of Resveratrol activity. Resveratrol is available in bottles of 30 or 60 tablets.
Source Naturals, the science company, is pleased to partner with your natural foods retailer in bringing you this botanical treasure. For a long and vital life, Resveratrol belongs at the center of your anti-aging regimen.

If your first step after cleansing and moisturizing is reaching for your foundation and color cosmetic products, you are missing out on the chance for a truly natural, long-lasting look. In its natural form, your skin is not an ideal surface for makeup; traces of oil, dry patches of tissue and fine lines in your complexion can make makeup apply unevenly and not properly adhere to your face. To get natural, long-lasting results, using primer products to prepare your skin for makeup is key, and no better primers are available on the market today than those found in the Stila Cosmetics Primers collection.
The products in the Stila Cosmetics Primers lineup are designed to ready specific parts of your face for your favorite cosmetics. By gently massaging in the formulations found in the items in the Stila Cosmetics Primers range, you can extend the life of your look, ensure that your foundation is smooth and keep cosmetics true and vibrant on your eyes, cheeks and lips. Add the products in the Stila Cosmetics Primers collection to your makeup routine today.
Get your face fully ready for the most beautiful makeup look possible with the Stila Cosmetics Primers collection. These skin-healthy primers also nourish and moisturize your complexion, while smoothing and mattifying the surface of your skin. Using one of Stila's primers before your cosmetics keeps your look truer longer, allowing you to apply your makeup once and then focus on your day.
Stila One Step Correct plays three vital roles in making you look beautiful all day long. The Magician formula present in the primer helps minimize the appearance of skin imperfections the moment you begin to work the silky corrector into your skin. Then, the Multitasker goes to work, filling in fine lines, reducing your pores and evening out the coloring of your complexion. Finally, the Miracle Worker in the corrector absorbs excess oil and gives your skin a dose of moisture to fully prepare it for cosmetics. The product contains green, lavender and peach pigments to hide sun spots and blemishes and make your skin appear rejuvenated and glowing.
Stila Prime Pot Taffy is the key to keeping your eye shadow looking as if you just applied it all day or evening long. The primer creates a smooth surface on your eyelids to prevent creasing, ensuring an even easy, application for both powder and cream eye shadow formulations. Additionally, the primer is water-resistant, forming a barrier that protects your eye makeup from the moisture in your eyes and giving you a matte finish to complete your look.

Federal agents are looking for a convicted kidnapper who escaped Saturday with five other inmates from the Emanuel County jail.
Cecil "Red" Nelson pleaded guilty in August to a federal charge of conspiracy to kidnap after he and two other men committed two abductions at gunpoint, holding the victims hostage until ransoms were paid.
The Emanuel County Sheriff's Department says the inmates escaped after someone left unlocked a door to the "pipe chaser," a utility closet-type area with access to the ceiling. The inmates then broke open a hatch to the roof.
It took jail officials 45 minutes to realize the men were missing. Three of the escapees have since been recaptured in Swainsboro.
According to the news release, special agent Mark F. Giuliano is in charge of the investigation and has announced a $5,000 reward in conjunction with Nelson's recapture.
Nelson is from Pembroke and investigators suspect he will returni to that area.He is 33 years old, stands 5-foot-11 and weighs 245 lbs.
Anyone with information regarding Nelson's whereabouts can contact either the Atlanta office FBI/Savannah Resident Agency at (912) 232-3716 or Savannah Crime Stoppers at (912) 234-2020.

2011 Signing Day Coverage
Iowa State head football coach Paul Rhoads wanted a balanced recruiting class for 2011. He wanted a recruiting class that was a reflection of the meticulous evaluation of prospective Iowa State student-athletes who were an ideal fit for the Cyclone football program. He got both in a class of 22 players who committed to Iowa State Wednesday by signing national letters of intent to attend Iowa State and wear the Cardinal and Gold.
"The most important element in recruiting is getting the best possible individuals for our football program," Rhoads said. "We had needs in several areas and have addressed those needs across the board."

ST. CLAIRSVILLE - Harrison Central had its confidence shaken during last week's OVAC Basketball Tournament.
The Huskies were routed twice and finished fourth in Class 4A, so coach Justin Clifford gave his team a few days off to re-group.
The strategy evidently worked. The Huskies' second season got under way with a victory against Beaver Local inside the Health and Physical Education Center on the campus of Ohio University Eastern.
Harrison Central (15-7) will return to OUE on Tuesday to meet Buckeye 8 rival Indian Creek, which swept the Huskies during the regular season.
The Beavers, who finish their season at 12-11, were certainly feisty throughout, especially in the second half.
Senior Troy Hudson finished with 19 points, leaving him with 1,004 for his career to lead the Beavers.
The Huskies were led by a quartet of double-figure scorers. Fletcher Watt netted 18, while Austin Kowalski and Nick Pelegreen each had 13. Senior Rashaen Mitchell, who had a big first half, finished with 12 points.

I've got a user getting a ton of very obvious spam, 300-400 a day. Between RBL's and all my other tricks I've managed to get then number of messages that actually land in the inbox down to under 25, which still isn't good enough. When I look at this these I see that 90% of them *should* be blocked by URIBL, which I raised the score for enough to always mark as spam, but for some reason are not. I don't even see a mention of URIBL in the headers at all. I know it works because there are lots of other spam that is being marked/score correctly by it. Any ideas why this might be the case or how to troubleshoot?
Also, all of my RBLs seem to work fine EXCEPT b.barracuracentral.org. It's not caught a single spam message so far.... I know it works since I can manually check using their test lookup fine. I registered my DNS server IP with them, and I'm running a low volume mail server (~1000 messages a day). Ideas?

Royals Celebrate 15 Years with Dream Factory
It's three hours before first pitch and it's raining. The white tarp drapes the field and the dugout is empty. Really empty. Doesn't really sound like a fun way to spend an evening at the ballpark, does it? Well, 12-year-old Josh begs to differ and he has Royals Captain Mike Sweeney backing him up.
As the first KMBC-TV Dream Factory child to visit Kauffman Stadium this season, Josh – pictured here with his sister Kate, Sweeney and KMBC-TV's Larry Moore – was hoping that a little rain on Wednesday wouldn't dampen his Royals experience. Luckily, running into Sweeney as the Royals veteran was heading to the indoor batting cages worked out perfectly. Sweeney chatted with Josh and then introduced the young Royals fan to a few teammates…John Buck, Gil Meche and "Big Donkey" (aka Billy Butler), who Sweeney introduced as "our starting left fielder."
"(Sweeney) just keeps bringing guys out," a smiling Josh said from just inside the Royals dugout. "I can't keep them all straight. This is awesome."
This season marks the 15th anniversary of the Royals partnership with the Greater Kansas City Chapter of the Dream Factory. For each Wednesday home game throughout the season, the Royals grant the wish of a Dream Factory child, a youngster who faces a serious challenge. The child, along with his or her family, comes out to Kauffman Stadium and meets his or her favorite Royals players before receiving tickets and refreshments for that day's home game. The child's Royals experience then appears on the KMBC-TV (Channel 9) 10 p.m. newscast in the "Dream Factory" segment.
This season, look for more stories like Josh's at royals.com as we celebrate 15 years of working with Dream Factory.

Baseball needs more guys like Mike Sweeney – he is a class act and this was a great post to read. You forget about all the good things baseball can bring us sometimes…

LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va. (WUSA) -As severe weather approaches, Loudoun County Sheriff Michael L. Chapman urges residents to avoid travel on roadways unless absolutely necessary.
Weather conditions are expected to worsen on Monday in the Washington Metropolitan Area with heavy rains and hurricane force winds.
Although many roadways are passable at this time, slick roadways from wet leaves and deteriorating weather conditions are making travel difficult. Widespread power outages and flooding are also expected throughout the county.
Sheriff Chapman would like to remind citizens "it takes only six inches of fast-moving flood water to knock over an adult and two feet to move a vehicle."
Motorists are reminded that when an intersection's traffic lights are off due to a power failure, that intersection must be seen as a four-way stop.
For more information, sign up for alerts from Loudoun County including traffic information through Alert Loudoun.

Philadelphia, PA (SportsNetwork.com) - PGA TOUR - WGC - ACCENTURE MATCH PLAY
CHAMPIONSHIP, The Golf Club at Dove Mountain, Marana, Arizona - The PGA Tour
heads back to Arizona this week for the WGC - Accenture Match Play
Matt Kuchar never trailed en route to a 2 & 1 victory over 2012 champion
Hunter Mahan last season to earn his first WGC title and his fifth PGA Tour
victory in all.
Kuchar stretched his lead up to 4-up following a 3-foot birdie putt at the
eighth before seeing Kuchar battle back to within one with two holes to play.
Mahan, however, needed four shots to find the green at the par-4 17th and
conceded the match to Kuchar.
Kuchar holds a 15-3 career record at this event, which is the highest winning
percentage of anyone with at least 10 matches played.
Tiger Woods is the only player to successfully defend his title at this event,
winning in 2003 and again in 2004.
The field consists of the top 64 players in last week's world rankings, but
No. 1 Woods, No. 2 Adam Scott and No. 4 Phil Mickelson will not play this
week, allowing Scott Piercy, Richard Sterne and Kiradech Aphibarnrat to take
their place.
Humana Challenge winner Patrick Reed will be among the seventeen first-time
participants this year.
Golf Channel will have television coverage Wednesday through Friday and early
on the weekend before handing off to CBS in the afternoon.
The PGA moves east to Florida next week for the Honda Classic, where Michael
Thompson picked up his first PGA Tour victory last season.
HONDA LPGA THAILAND, Siam Country Club, Chonburi, Thailand - The LPGA Tour is
in Thailand this week for the Honda LPGA Thailand.
Inbee Park was surprisingly handed her first of six titles of the year at this
event last season when Ariya Jutanugarn missed a 3-foot double-bogey putt at
the 18th hole that would have forced a playoff.
The then-17-year-old Jutanugarn entered the tournament's final hole with a 2-
stroke lead before seeing it slowly slip away.
Park will return to defend her title in her 2014 season debut against a field
that includes the top 10 players in the world. With Park not participating in
the first two events of the season, world No. 2 Suzann Pettersen and third-
ranked Stacy Lewis have both pulled within 1.25 average points of Park.
Golf Channel will have mostly tape-delayed coverage this week.
The LPGA travels to Singapore next week for the HSBC Women's Champions, where
Stacy Lewis earned a 1-stroke victory over Na Yeon Choi last year.

1951 Mercury & Other Readers' Rods- Readers' RodsWritten on June 1, 2009
Yesterday's Young Guns
Werner Pauli
Holly Hill, Florida
1951 Mercury
In 1956, Werner Pauli was 24 years old, home from Korea (where he flew B-26s), and owned this custom Mercury.
This story comes from his son Dave. "Dad bought the '51 off the lot in Arlington Heights, Illinois, while visiting home and drove it to Langley AFB in Virginia, where he was stationed. He and some friends had a garage off base and made all the standard leadsled mods: nosed, decked, shaved, and lowered (with 4-inch blocks in the rear), frenched headlights, and '54 Packard Clipper taillights. The center '56 Chrysler grille bar pivoted when pushed to open the driver's door using a '51 Buick starter solenoid. Switches on the driver's seat operated everything, including the passenger door.
"The 331ci Hemi had dual carbs, dual exhaust, and flamethrowers. A '37 LaSalle three-speed had the obligatory tall shifter with an adapter plate made by Lee Petty.
"He switched between Caddy hubcaps and Olds Fiestas, depending on where he was going, because 'There was always a good chance the Caddys would get ripped off.' The 31-gallon fuel tank with boost pumps was for extended cruising. The B-26 landing light mounted in the trunk was for anybody who followed too close.
"The 30-coat lacquer job-Sherwood green over a gold base-would change from deep green in bright sunlight to dark blue to jet black at night.
"He had a lot of fun with the car, which ran 'pretty fast for a custom.' The Merc's long gone, but Dad is still kicking!"
Tim Brown
San Diego, California
1927 Ford Track Roadster
Tim says that he got the car bug early in life and knows who he caught it from. "Growing up close to my dad, we would go to all the local swap meets to collect Model A and Model T parts-that's how you had to do it in those days because there was no eBay." Tim's dad Ed enjoyed restoring his cars, but Tim always want to "hot rod" them. After reading the July '04 issue of R&C, featuring a special section on track roadsters, he knew that's what he wanted to build. He and his dad spent 21/2 years building this one, powering it with a '47 Ford Flathead with dual 97s and Edelbrock heads, followed by a '39 Lincoln Zephyr trans and a '47 banjo rearend with a Winters quick-change. He says that he and his dad are proud of their two-man project, as they should be. At the Goodguys Del Mar Nationals, the Track T was honored with a couple of awards, including the very appropriate "The Real McCoy" award.
Hoss Sauvageau
Fort Collins, Colorado
1948 Cadillac Series 62 Sedan
The next time you're driving in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains, be on the lookout for this cool '48 Cadillac.We'd say Hoss showed pretty good judgment when putting together his award-winning resto-rod by letting the original style of the car speak for itself, making just a few mild modifications. The car is powered by a bored and stroked '48 Cadillac flathead engine, with a three-speed Hydramatic transmission behind it-both built by Dirty Dan. Wide whites rolling on '49 Cadillac wires complement the overall tone of the car. The seats were covered in brown and tan leather with 3-inch tuck 'n' roll. Hoss and his friend Kenny Petty did the bodywork. The eye-catching paint, Hot Hues Sinful Cinnamon painted at Ozzie's Body Shop, make this one pretty hard to miss.
We cannot return submitted material. Please include your phone number.

Myth Nine: TJX — It Can't Happen Here
Gordon Burnes 270004HVEW email@example.com | | 0 Comments | 210 Visits
Attrition.org maintains a list of public, high profile data breaches. The list is staggeringly long, and goes back to the year 2000. TJX, while a high profile data breach and perhaps one of the biggest stories of 2007, is only one of the many that were publicly reported. And, companies have a vested interest in not making these events public. Add to that the breaches that happen every day that go undiscovered and it becomes clear that this staggeringly long list is just the tip of the iceberg.
Myth Four: You Can Only Manage Risk from the Center
Gordon Burnes 270004HVEW firstname.lastname@example.com | | 0 Comments | 210 Visits
I'll be the last one to tell you that a strong central risk management function is a bad thing. Unfortunately, many organizations make the mistake of investing only in a centralized function because it's too difficult to federate, and push risk management to lower levels of responsibility in the organization. It's a classic consistency vs. quality of information problem.
Myth Three: A Rigid, Standardized Risk Management Approach is the Best Approach
Gordon Burnes 270004HVEW email@example.com | | 0 Comments | 198 Visits
ERM, similar to most business processes, is not a "one-size-fits-all" solution. It has to be customized and tailored for each firm. As Mark Olson of the Federal Reserve notes, "An effective enterprise-wide compliance-risk management program is flexible to respond to change and it is tailored to an organization's corporate strategies, business activities and external environment." (April 10, 2006)1
Myth Six: Traditional Audit Planning is Good Enough

A traditional model to planning the audit process typically examines 10-20 risk factors for each element of the audit universe, and buckets each auditable entity into a risk categorization which will drive the frequency with which it is audited. While this approach may have worked well in the past, modern audit departments are being asked to do more with less. The known risk universe gets bigger by the day, and investing in a massive risk evaluation for each entity may not be the best use of resources. Is it worth tying up valuable stakeholders in management and on the audit committee to assess the risk inherent in the coffee procurement process for a remote sales office?

Spreadsheet gurus have carved out a significant role in managing financial and operational data in many companies. The problem with this approach is that it's a) manually intensive and b) highly reliant on the individuals that manage and operate these spreadsheets. Further, the processes for linking, updating and archiving data in spreadsheets is mostly ad hoc, leading to significant risks associated with this data.

The US Department of Justice has unveiled new details about its civil rights investigation into Missoula police, prosecutors and the University of Montana.
The two-prong investigation is focused on allegations of a pattern of gender discrimination in relation to reported sex assaults.
NBC Montana reporters attended a news conference with top-level US Attorneys from the department's civil rights department, Montana's US Attorney, Missoula's Mayor, Police Chief and the President of the University of Montana.
The Justice Department reports over 80 alleged rapes in Missoula over the last three years, with at least 11 in an 18 month period involving University of Montana students.
"The allegations that the University of Montana, the local police department and the County Attorney's Office failed to adequately address sexual assaults are very disturbing," said Attorney General Eric Holder.
Officials say the federal investigation will look at sexual assaults alleged by all women in Missoula, not just students.
The Justice Department also says its Civil Rights team has uncovered patterns of gender discrimination in the New Orleans Police Department as well as two others.
