Thursday's Game…
Guess Ryan Shealy is over that dreaded flu bug that was making its way through the Royals Spring Training clubhouse. After going long in his first at-bat in Wednesday's 3-1 Royals victory over San Fran, Shealy entered Thursday's game for Ross Gload and, in his only at-bat, homered again. This time the solo shot over the wall snapped a 3-3 tie in the bottom of the ninth.
Here are some shots (from team photographer Chris Vleisides) of the team celebrating Shealy's walk-off homer.
Immediately, following the win over the Diamondbacks, Manager Trey Hillman held a team meeting – agenda unknown – at home plate.
A non-game note…the first batch of the 2008 Royals Media Guides arrived in Kansas City today – and they look great! Like past years, the Media Guide will be available for purchase in Kauffman Stadium once the season begins.

I feel for all you non-residents but on the other hand, I don't understand where the problem is requiring the outfitter to be NM based. It only makes sense to get an outfitter from the area you choose to hunt whether its resident or nonres. In my opinion these outfits are only in it for the $, most probably have little to no knowledge of the areas they are sending clients to. Yeah from there they probably hire a local outfitter or guides to do all the dirty work and just collect on the sidelines. I see how commercialized the sport has gotten and how it has affected the hunting priveledges for your everyday guy or local people. Of course if you can sell a tag for ten grand to a nonres rather than sell to a local for even a third of the price, who would you sell to, I'm sure most hunters can't afford these outragious prices. I'm not only speaking for nm residents as I'm sure in every state hunters have seen this happen. NM offers soo many great areas to hunt but most of the time unless you have a FAT wallet you can't touch these areas. I understand people making a living off of this but there has to be a limit. Everyone is local to a state so run your outfit out of your home state and give others the chance to prosper as well! Sorry for the rant but greed is the root of all evil, why can't everything be even and fair. Applying as a non-resident in any state isn't easy I guess we just have to deal with the laws or fearless leaders vote in...p.s. none of this is directed towards you Doenob, don't take offense to it, like I said just ranting!
The way I heard it said best is "we are all non residents in every state but one." I think most eastman subscribers get their name in the hat in more than one state, I think its outrageous to have a restrictive quota then gouge us on the tags as well. In my thinking it
should be one or the other - either set a restrictive NR quota, then make the NR tags 4-5x res prices OR make them expensive and don't set a limit on it.
Quite a few of the NM outfitters that are harmed by this live just over the border in CO or AZ, so spend as much time in the units as residents and are good guides. AZ is hard as hell to get a tag in compared to NM, so many have had to do both. A lot of piggy backing going on this year, but I think its mostly established and well regarded guides running their business through a NM resident, seems like an awful easy hoop to jump thru, the law makes little sense to me.
Update: The judge ruled the 5 outfitters suing could get in the outfitter pool this year, but not if they were an LLC, only individuals, something about the commerce clause protecting individuals but not corporations. That makes a whole lot of no sense, so I think that further lawsuits will bring forth more changes in the outfitter pool.
My opinion is do away with the outfitter pool altogether, just make the NR pool 15%. I think everyone would be happy with that except the guides, but I don't think the government should be subsidizing their business anyway. Most guides worth their salt do a healthy trade in landowner tags already to make sure they can be booked enough to make a living. The reason that will never happen is NR have no place at the table and the Guides and Outfitters have more political clout than any of the other groups.
The whole things a cluster, I threw my name in the hat for a bunch of long shots (except elk), maybe I'll have better luck this year.

Despite the kicking and screaming in the forums it is apparent the server portion of IM in ZCS will be gone for good in v8.
I have been unable to find a road map for version 8 anywhere or I wouldn't be posting but I have a couple questions I am hoping that some one has the answers.
1.) Can anyone tell me what the UI in the client will include in v8?
2.) Will we still have presence icons? This is a great feature when people compare functionality with Lync.
3.) Will you be able to pass documents around through it?
4.) What servers will the client side communicate with? We are hoping for something that has enterprise controls such as ejabberd or openfire.
5.) Will the ZCS be supported if it is installed on the same machine as the IM server?
6.) Will the client side be deployed within the program itself or will it be deployed through a zimlet?
7.) Will the authentication work seamlessly through zimbra/spnego or will the clients have to re-authenticate to the IM server?
Thanks in advance!!

You really need to check the facts.
The Bay Park Sewage Treatment Plant has been in disarray for years (long before and long after Suozzi was in office).
How could Suozzi, who was in office for all of eight years, have allowed the plant to fall into a shameful state of collapse for DECADES? Last I checked a decade was 10 years and DECADES would imply 20 years. The math just doesn't work.
The plant has been in a state of disrepair under a healthy mix of Democrats and Republicans: Purcell, Gulotta,Suozzi and Mangano. One even wanted to sell the system to a private company. The worst part of all this, is that neither side is talking about what is really needed at the plant: an outfall pipe.
No one person is to blame for the sorry state of the sewage system, it's the system itself that's to blame. Unqualified, politically appointed cronies get cushy jobs and ignore the problem until they can cash in their taxpayer funded pension. No accountability. The Republicans do it and the Democrats do it, too.
Maybe the real sources of the stink in Bay Park are the politicians in Hempstead and Mineola.
Thursday, October 24, 2013 | Report this
They know the facts, and this is clearly campaign material more than letters from concerned citizens. Gary Aue happens to be the Supervisor of Street Lighting working for Santino. Need I say more? Well I will.
Anyone can easily do a Google search to find that the Bay Park Plant leaked in 2010, and that the DEC sued the County and got a $1 million settlement for the leak that took place on the Republican watch (Mangano, Kopel, even Santino who claims to fight so hard for East Rockaway). They were so busy trying to sell the plant in some scheme to borrow money without NIFA's approval, that they did nothing to complete the repairs Suozzi started in 2008. After NIFA nixed privatization and Mangano wasted two years of precious repair time, Mangano's office admitted that they had money left over from Suozzi's repair plan. They didn't spend it on the plant, that's for sure. Yes, something stinks here, but it isn't Daniels' claims. And there are engineer reports that say the plant would have sustained more of Hurricane Sandy if it wasn't so badly neglected when the storm hit.
Jeff Toback, who hasn't been in office in four years but who seems to have been resurrected in this election, was the first person who talked about an outfall pipe, and he was crucified for it. Now people are coming around that it was the right plan. And by the way, the sewage from the Five Towns does in fact come to Bay Park. Didn't I see some mail piece from Santino saying that he stopped it, that he said No? Well it's here.
Kopel is never really present, he hasn't done anything for us, and he seems to want to relax in Florida more than he wants to be our legislator. There is no question that he was absent during and after Sandy. There is an article in Newsday by Celeste Hadrick dated November 18, 2012 where he admits that he was at his Florida vacation home in Boynton Beach, Florida with his wife before Sandy, and that he didn't come back. Why didn't he drive or take a train? If Kopel wanted to be here with us in the aftermath of the storm, he could have gotten back. He obviously didn't care enough to make the effort. Daniels has made some valid accusations, none of which denote that she was raised improperly. Santino, now there's another story entirely. Why doesn't he stop sending out campaign mail and propaganda on the taxpayers dime?
I agree with PaulScott, let's clean house on Election Day! They all stink!
Sunday, October 27, 2013 | Report this
After receiving the most disgusting, vile advertisement using the death of a small child, I would never ever ever vote for Kopel. I had to look at it twice to see if I was actually reading what I was holding in my hand. Shame on you for hiding behind the death of a two year old to get reelected.If thats all you got, you don't deserve the job
I love the mailers that show Suozzi standing in actual raw sewage and the spin on it that he may actually enjoy the sewage that spilled out in East Rockaway. It's so disgusting how dumb and short-sided they think we all are. It will be a long long time before I ever vote Republican again. Get them out!
Truthteller!! I saw that Kopel ad today and was FLOORED. How can they get away with using a dead child, killed by a monster, and say Lisa Daniels is responsible??? I thought about it all day, and am looking into reporting this somehow to an ethics committee. Is there even one? I know that political mail needs to have a disclaimer to show who paid for it, and both Kopel and Mangano ads are missing them. This is shady and appalling. How do they sleep at night??

Plasmas - The Greatest Show on Earth
by Kathy Chambers 24 Jun, 2013 in Products and Content
Perhaps the most beautiful and eerie displays of light in our sky are a phenomenon known as the auroras. This natural glow of light in the sky in high latitude regions usually displays ribbons of colors from a fluorescent green to brilliant purple to a vivid crimson somewhat like an unexpected beautiful sunrise or sunset. Observers often call it the greatest show on Earth.
Auroras are triggered by geomagnetic storms when gusts of solar plasma wind strike the Earth's magnetic field; charged particles rain down over the north and south magnetic poles, lighting up the atmosphere and causing the air to glow.

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- Friday, D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray says Department of Public Works workers will remove at national parks in the District during the federal government shutdown.
In a written statement, Gray said, "The National Park Service parks in the District attract large numbers of visitors - especially during the unseasonably warm weather we have been enjoying lately. It is imperative that someone remove the trash in a timely fashion before garbage piles up and rodents and other vermin are attracted. Because the federal government cannot step up to provide this basic service to District residents and visitors, I have authorized DPW to service the litter cans for the duration of the federal shutdown."
The workers will only pick up litter can trash from park sites that are accessible to the public since some parks have been barricaded by the National Park Service.
The mayor said he ordered this to be done in part because of the desire to keep the parks vermin-free.

Hi I am interested in doing your map. You can find my Arden Map on the startpage of cg here. If my style is ok for your map, please send me a message.
Hi all, I am working on book III of my science fiction series and would like to put a map of the planet it takes place on near the front of the book.
I am on a budget so I can provide a maximum of $50 for this map or $35 plus a free book with the map in it upon completion. (though less is happily preferred)
Sometime before June 2012
This will be a black and white map of terrain (lakes, rivers, mountains, deserts, ice caps, and a stylized sun). You do not have to draw any labels; I can type them in on top of your terrain. This should make the map take much less time for you.
The style should match the style of the two maps on this web page:
or this one: http://www.cartographersguild.com/at...6&d=1240162324
I have a draft map drawn up which I can send. It is essentially the same in size and scope to the map of the planet Shamonj in the first link above (same zoom level).
Quality / Size:
300dpi, 7 inches wide, 5.5 inches high
B/W for print in a book
png or photoshop format
I will have the right to use the image for commercial purposes, the artist will have the right to exhibit the image as part of his or her portfolio but not to exploit it for commercial gain.
Credit to the artist, link to url, etc can be placed somewhere appropriate in the book.
Let me know if you're interested and your fee, especially if you can provide a sample of a b/w map you made in a similar style.

Hi I am interested in doing your map. You can find my Arden Map on the startpage of cg here. If my style is ok for your map, please send me a message.
Amos, I can definitely give you the style you want. Check out some of the hand drawn elements on my site: www.mfedewa.tumblr.com
Here are more specifics:
The planet has one pole (north) constantly facing the sun.
Therefore the north half is a burning desert. You can put any features in the desert you like (assorted mountains, canyons, great cracks, or just flat sand.
The south half is frigid cold. It is primarily covered by a large ocean with a few small scattered landmasses. About half of this is enacased in ice cap/snow.
Between the northern desert and southern ocean/ice cap is a narrow band of habitable land. Much of it is jungle, though there can be other features as well.
Attached is a shot of the planet from a distance. The black band in the middle is the green habitable jungles and grasslands going through the middle of the planet.
Also attached is my first try at a draft of the actual planet map. I would like north oriented to the extreme left and right so that there is more room to show the habitable area, cutting off the far northern pole. I would like south oriented toward the center so that you can show the line of the ice cap and maybe a few snow covered mountains on the islands, but otherwise cutting off most of the southern pole.
I laid out some random mountain ranges, rivers, lakes, bays, islands, etc, but the actual location of any of this is not important; you can follow them exactly or you can customize the planet in any way you like providing the following are kept:
1) habitable area roughly matches that of the small planet globe
2) south is covered by a large frigid ocean (with whatever islands you want to put in)
3) the southern portion of the large ocean is encased in ice
4) north is covered by a sizzling hot, unlivable desert
5) south pole is oriented to the center of the map with a break (no image) where the page break of the book will fall
6) north pole is oriented to the edges of the map with 2 compass roses indicating such
7) a sun is shown at either end of the map to enhance the sense that the desert is extremely hot because the sun is shining on it all day
8) there are 7 cities that can go wherever you like provided that one of them is somewhat in the desert on a lake (I show it near the top left of the map), another is on the coast nearer to the south (a cold icy city, Ezz in my picture), and another is inland away from everything and well protected by mountains (Nol-amer)
9) the central band is at least 50% jungle
10) do not label anything - I will add labels later
Again, I just put this draft map together randomly and you can detail the planet however you like, even changing the coastline, mountains, etc as long as you stay within the general parameters above.
You can't have the north and south poles aligned with the sun. A planet with its axis in the plane of the ecliptic would tend to resist tide lock, and if it were to tide lock anyway, it would mean the axis had shifted up to perpendicular to the ecliptic. This is a necessary condition of tide lock if you think about it, in order to rotate so that the same side of the planet is facing the sun as it orbits, the planet has to be rotating in the same plane as its orbit.
You're right, I threw the compass rose on at the last minute without really thinking about what way it should point, so that I could use it as a reference to explain the map. Since north should be 'up' in the picture, it doesn't have to be included.
This is taken...
Marked as taken and Congrats on being my first CL activity.
When its over and you look in the mirror, did you do the best that you were capable of? If so, the score does not matter. But if you find that you did your best you were capable of, you will find it to your liking. -John Wooden

No command substitution but subshell redirection
This version uses read instead of eval.
It's quite easy to capture the output of a command and assign it in a shell's variable:
day=$(date +%d)
month=$(date +%m)
But, what if we want to perform the same task with just one program invocation? Here comes the power of eval! date(1) outputs a string like "day=29; month=07; year=11" (notice the semicolons I added on purpose at date's custom output) which is a legal shell line. This like is then parsed and executed by the shell once again with the help of eval. Just setting 3 variables!
Inspired by LinuxJournal's column "Dave Taylor's Work the Shell".
I liked vaporub's suggestion, here a little simplification of the sed command.
Line can be modified as needed. This considers weekdays to be Mon-Fri. If run any working day it'll provide a parameters for the next working day for "at".
"beep" provided as a sample command.
This can be modified easily to include wait time. If you need something to run "D" days after today:
# D=4;if [ $(date +%u --date="${D} days") -lt 5 ];then AT="+${D} days";else AT="next monday";fi; echo "beep" | at noon ${AT}
Improved version of command #8425.
This way, the default browser is used, as opposed to Firefox.
Simple Compressed Backup of the /etc
Linux compatible
If you are stuck behind a firewall and want to synchronize time with another server but you do not want to port forward NTP (which uses UDP) then this command is handy. It gets the time from a server and sets the local time. It is not that accurate but I can live with a second or so drift.
even shorter (infix) version.
"infix" version in bash (4.x+)
Remove -v to make it silent.
BTW: The OP forgot to use "cat" and "nmap" ;-) I had a good laugh though.
QR codes are those funny square 2d bar codes that everyone seems to be pointing their smart phones at.
Try the following...
qrurl http://xkcd.com
Then open qr.*.png in your favorite image viewer.
Point your the bar code reader on your smart phone at the code, and you'll shortly be reading xkcd on your phone.
URLs are not the only thing that can be encoded by QR codes... short texts (to around 2K) can be encoded this way, although this function doesn't do any URL encoding, so unless you want to do that by hand it won't be useful for that.

I saw 4 episodes of the anime, that is probably why. I was a bit rushed too. And now I cannot seem to find anymore.
Chobits, my friend always talks about Chobits, Mu-mu (i think that is how she spells it) and Fruits Basket. Good?
For Fruits Basket, read the manga instead. The anime is the same as it, except that it suddenly cuts off at episode 26 a ends with no ending. But, it's target audience is girls, so it's a love triangle story with a bit of action in between (Usually just one-on-one "fist fights").
I've read the first three volumes of Chobits and have seen about 5 episodes. The seem the same, but I can't say if it is good or not since I haven't finished it.
And I've never heard of Mu-mu.
she pronounces it mew-mew
Oh. That might be Tokyo Mew Mew then. I've never seen it.
Is Fullmetal alchemist in Youtube?

text: How to make a clock run for 10,000 years Technology 24 June 11 by Dylan Tweney Jim Merithew / Wired.com High on a rocky ridge in the desert, nestled among the brush, is the topmost part of a clock that has been ticking for thousands of years.It looks out over the ruins of a spaceport, built by a rich man whose name was forgotten long ago.Most of the clock is deep inside the mountain, below the ridgeline. To get there, you hike for days through the heat; the only sounds are the buzzing of flies and the whisper of the occasional breeze. You climb up through the brush, then pass through a hidden door into the darkness and silence of the clock chamber. Far above your head, in the darkness, a massive pendulum swings slowly back and forth, making the clock tick once every 10 seconds.No one knows who built it, or why. They built it well, and even now it keeps perfect time. All we know of these strange people is that they were obsessed with the future.Why else would they build something that had no purpose except to mark time for thousands of years?The rich man is Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos, and he has indeed started construction on a clock that he hopes will run for 10,000 years.For Bezos, the founder of Amazon.com, the clock is not just the ultimate prestige timepiece. It's a symbol of the power of long-term thinking. His hope is that building it will change the way humanity thinks about time, encouraging our distant descendants to take a longer view than we have.For starters, Bezos himself is taking a far, far longer view than most Fortune 500 CEOs."Over the lifetime of this clock, the United States won't exist," Bezos tells me. "Whole civilisations will rise and fall. New systems of government will be invented. You can't imagine the world -- no one can -- that we're trying to get this clock to pass through."To help achieve his mission of fostering long-term thinking, Bezos last week launched a website to publicise his clock. People who want to visit the clock once it's ready can put their names on a waiting list on the site -- although they'll have to be prepared to wait, as the clock won't be complete for years.It's a monumental undertaking that Bezos and the crew of people designing and building the clock repeatedly compare to the Egyptian pyramids. And as with the pharaohs, it takes a certain amount of ego -- even hubris -- to consider building such a monument. But it's also an unparalleled engineering problem, challenging its makers to think about how to keep a machine intact, operational and accurate over a time span longer than most human-made objects have even existed.Consider this:10,000 years ago, our ancestors had barely begun making the transition from hunting and gathering to simple agriculture, and had just figured out how to cultivate gourds to use as bottles. What if those people had built a machine, set it in motion, and it was still running today? Would we understand how to use it? What would it tell us about them?And would it change the way we think about our own future?The idea for the clock has been around since Danny Hillis first proposed it in WIRED magazine in 1995. Since then, Hillis and others have built prototypes and created a nonprofit, the Long Now Foundation, to work on the clock and promote long-term thinking. But nobody actually started building a full-scale 10,000-year clock until Bezos put up a small portion -- $42 million, he says -- of his fortune.Last year, contractors started machining components, such as a trio of 8-foot (2.43 metres) stainless steel gears and the Geneva wheels that will ring the chimes. Meanwhile, computers at Jet Propulsion Laboratories have spent months calculating the sun's position in the sky at noon every day for the next 10,000 years, data that the clock will use to correct itself. This year, excavation began on the Texas desert site where the clock will be installed deep underground.And just last month, the Smithsonian agreed to let the Long Now Foundation install a 10,000-year clock in one of its Washington museums, once they can find someone to fund it.It seems that the time for millennium clocks has arrived.The ProjectMaking a clock that will run for 10 millennia is no small undertaking. In Texas, the builders have started drilling a horizontal access tunnel into the base of the ridge where the clock will live. They'll drill a pilot hole, 500 feet straight down from the top of the ridge, until it meets the access tunnel. Then they'll bring a 12-foot-7-inch bit into the bottom and drill it back up, carving out a tall vertical shaft as it goes.Afterwards, they'll install a movable platform holding a 2.5-ton robot arm with a stonecutting saw mounted on the end. It will start carving a spiral staircase into the vertical shaft, from the top down, one step at a time.The clock, with massive metal gears, a huge stone weight, and a precise, titanium escapement inside a protective quartz box, will go deep into the shaft. A few years from now, the makers will set it in motion.Some day, thousands of years in the future, when Bezos and Amazon and even the United States are nothing more than memories, or less even than that, people may discover this clock, still ticking, and scratch their heads.Bezos says, "In the year 4000, you'll go see this clock and you'll wonder, 'Why on Earth did they build this?'"The answer, he hopes, will lead you to think more profoundly about the distant future and your effects on it. Here are some of the people who are creating the most temporally ambitious mechanical engineering project in human history. Read page 2 12345 Read on one page Latest on wired.co.uk

LEXINGTON PARK, Md. (WUSA9) -- St. Mary's County Sheriff's Office authorities say a man was arrested on Saturday after he was asked to leave Millson Plaza but he returned with a knife.
According to authorities, members of the Lexington Park COPS Unit saw 56-year-old Alexandra Spencer Barnes of Lexington Park loitering in Millison Plaza. They say he "was exhibiting signs of alcohol impairment" was issued a notice not to trespass. Ten minutes later, however, he came back to the area, say authorities. This time, Barnes had an open box cutter-style knife, and approached an officer, according to authorities.
Authorities say Barnes was ordered at gunpoint to drop the knife, and he did. Barnes was then arrested and charged with Trespass and Assault.

I hope all of you are enjoying the holiday season with Chanukah, Christmas, and New Year's celebrations. As we say goodbye to 2012 and hello to 2013, I offer you my final blog post of the year.
This year will go down in history as one of the most eventful years to date. Somehow President Obama – arguably one of the most corrupt and dangerous presidents in American history – clinched a second term in November. SCOTUS ruled the individual mandate provision in Obamacare constitutional as a tax. Shockingly, but not surprisingly, Mitt Romney lost the election. Our side witnessed devastating losses in U.S. Senate contests, as well. Unemployment rose. The country cared more about birth control politics than preserving free enterprise this election year. And the list goes on and on.
2012 was not a good year for America. Don't kid yourselves if you think higher taxes, the implementation of Obamacare, and other policies ushered in by this administration are going to benefit us. They'll incur more harm than good.
If you want to be encouraged for the battle ahead, check out Rebooting America founder Justen Charters in his viral "Six Trillion Dollar Man" music video for ChristinePAC. Share it with your friends and family.
Although there's much to complain about 2012 and the consequences surrounding Obama's re-election, I recognize that much good came out of this year. I graduated from UCSD with a B.A. in Political Science on the three-year track in June. Shortly afterward I moved from Southern California to Northern Virginia to intern at the Media Research Center's CNSNews division. I then got hired to work for the Leadership Institute as the Northeast Regional Field Coordinator, which has been a great experience thus far. Working with conservative students is fun, hard work, and great. I'm also grateful for wonderful co-workers, and find myself incredibly happy with the work I'm doing. I'm very blessed for gainful employment!
I was also graced with many opportunities in 2012. I was a youth speaker at several conferences, appeared on many radio shows, and continued to write for various conservative media outlets. I befriended and strengthened friendships with great people and fellow young conservative activists. I met many people who I look up to including Michelle Malkin, Ken Cuccinelli, Mark Levin, Dana Loesch, Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX), Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC), and incoming U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), to name a few. I got to explore this country more and ventured to Texas, New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Connecticut, and Massachusetts for the first time. FreePAC Dallas was a blast, and my various trips to the Northeast to meet with students were equally worthwhile. I also co-founded another youth movement – Resistance 44- with my good friend Justen Charters and gauged young people with our conservative message.
2012 wouldn't be complete if it weren't for my family, friends, and fellow activists. Thank you for keeping my spirits up. I'm thankful for all of you and your continual support!
Despite impending tax hikes on all Americans come January 1st (thank you, President Obama and Congress), Americans should look forward to 2013.
-Pro-life? Attend 40th Annual March for Life event. The march will be taking place on January 25, 2013 in downtown Washington, D.C.
-President Obama and Democrats in the U.S. Senate are threatening to enforce gun bans. If this happens, apply for a concealed carry weapon (CCW) permit. Check your state government's website on how to apply for CCW permits in your state. Additionally, sign-up to be a member of the NRA, Gun Owners of America, and/or National Association for Gun Rights.
-If you live here in the Commonwealth of Virginia, you have the opportunity to help pivot our state red and elect Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli as our next governor. Outside support is also appreciated. This is the first and most important electoral contest our side must win. (Visit Cuccinelli's website, sign up to be a campaign volunteer, and donate money to his campaign.)
-Get involved with the National School Choice Week movement. Next year's event takes place during the week of January 27, 2013 – February 2, 2013. This is how we outreach to people.
-All conservatives – especially young people – must get involved in Rebooting America. If you liked National Papa John's Appreciation Day, you'll like our future events.
-Start reading blogs featuring young conservatives on Counter Cultured, Young Cons, Values and Capitalism, and Acculturated.
-Defend Israel and support groups like CUFI, Zionist Organization of America, StandWithUs, and Young Jewish Conservatives.
-Defend free enterprise and make the moral case for it. Don't support higher taxes.
-Champion family values and undermine the welfare society.
-And most of all breathe, exercise, eat healthy, travel the country, be frugal, surround yourself with good people, and don't succumb to pressure. Take the occasional break from politics and your electronics to enjoy the world around you.
What will I be up to in 2013? Here's what you can expect from me:
- Speaking engagements: I'm scheduled to speak at a CUFI on Campus' SALT conference panel on student activism in San Antonio, TX on January 3, 2013, which is followed by my participation in "The Cheated Generation" panel at Maryland Conservative Action Network's Turning the Tides conference on January 12, 2013 in Annapolis, MD. More appearances are likely throughout the year.
- Look out for an e-book featuring yours truly: I, along with other young conservatives, wrote a chapter for an e-book slated for release in March 2013.
- National appearance: Can't reveal this yet, but you'll be seeing me on the national stage in mid-to-late January.
- Blogging: I'll continue blogging for CNSNews.com, Counter Cultured, Right Wing News, and make my debut on The Blaze. Some other opportunities might come up. I'll keep you posted.
- Work: Work is my first priority, so it'll come first before outside activities. Nevertheless, I'll be documenting my travels, crazy professors, and leftist abuses in the Northeast if anything comes up. If you're a student in the Northeast looking to be active on campus, please contact me here.
- Rebooting America: I'll be more involved. You should join the movement too.
- Twitter: Follow my musings and tweets @Gabby_Hoffman.
L'chaim and cheers to a happy, healthy, and productive 2013!

The Primos vest mite work??
This is probably a really basic question for somebody who has been hunting for as long as I have been but I'm looking for a new blaze vest and can't seem to find something that has what I'm looking for. I know there has to be one out there...
I'd like something that is light (not heavy canvas type material) for backcountry day trip pack hunting. Quiet. With an upper chest pocket for a rangefinder and a couple bottom pockets. I don't want one of the cheepies or a plain jane 3/4 or full vest with no pockets. I don't know if fleece would be the best or if an underarmor type material would be better. I'll be using it from early to late season and would just like a good all-around vest that will last for at least a few years.
Does anybody have any suggestions or recommendations?
The Primos vest mite work??
Can you handle the challenge.... hunt hard but safe!!
I agree,The Primos gun vest would be a good choice!
Thanks guys. I looked at the Primos and it seems like a good vest but maybe a little bulky/heavy for pack hunting...? Just a thought.
What do folks think of the... Cabela's Burr-Proof Deer Hunter Vest. Seems light and has some good pockets. I don't know what "acrylic" material is however. I also am looking at the Cabela's Fleece Blaze Full-Length Vest and the Under Armour Blaze Vest.
I'm suprised that Sitka, APX, or some of the other new popular clothing brands have not come out with a blaze vest in their product lines.
Thanks for the information guys. I looked at the Primos vest and it seems like a great vest but my initial thought is that it might be a tad bit heavy for pack hunting...? Of course I just looked at it online and not the real deal. Does anybody have any thoughts on Cabela's Burr-Proof Deer Hunter Vest or the Under Armour Blaze Vest? They both seem light in weight and the burr-proof model has an upper chest pocket for a rangefinder.

Handpicked horses help riders find mobility, independence
Here's a sweet story out of the Bitterroot Valley for you on a almost-summer Thursday.
The Bitterroot Theraputic Ranch near Corvallis is home to special horses that, as writer Brett Berntsen explains, have a very special duties.
Take Tonah, for example:
Tonah, a Norwegian Fjord, fits the mold perfectly. As a small draft horse, she can carry heavy loads yet isn't tall, making it easy to mount and dismount. Moreover, she has the calm, patient demeanor necessary for long days in the arena.
. . .
Astride a beige mare named Tonah, Abbie Jessop leads the exercise. Despite being born with cerebral palsy and nearly deaf, the 18-year-old Pinesdale resident rides independently.
She steers the patient mare next to a metal rack holding plastic rings. Reaching up with a shaky hand, she spears a ring and drops it onto a nearby cone like a gaucho in training.
We featured the ranch in our May/June issue with a spread of amazing photos by photography Lido Vizzutti. Grab a copy to see all the photos.
Until then, the full story is online now.

I searched bugzilla and couldn't find anything on this.. It looks like the admin console is assigning the value of zimbraDomainDefaultCOSId as the name of the COS rather than the ID. When I add a new user, the user simply gets assigned to the default COS. Setting the property with the ID via zmprov seems to fix the issue.
Server that I'm seeing this on is 5.0.15 RH5 x64. Can anyone else confirm this?


text: My next commission is a map/floor plan for a space station. All I had to go on was text as to what the station looks like, and I've been looking for an excuse to play around with Google SketchUp. The description of the station is basically a series of "Stanford Torus" rings orbiting an "O'neil Cylinder". This is what I've come up with so far. I'm pretty happy with the results so far considering it is my first go around with SketchUp.

1 tsp. ginger
1 clove garlic, minced
1/3 cup grated onion
2 T. sugar
½ cup soy sauce
1/4 cup water
Marinate 2-3 pounds steak, beef strips, pork ribs or steaks, or chicken breasts.
Pour marinate over meat, cover, refrigerate for at least 2 hours, grill.
Polynesian Marinate
1 cup pineapple juice
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp. ginger
Place 4 pounds, lean, beef short ribs in a foil pan, pour marinate over ribs and grill for 2 to 2 1/2 hours. (Or bake at 325 degrees for 2 1/2 hours) Baste ever twenty minutes.
*Great on chicken too!
-Easy recipe: Cut lean, chicken, beef, or pork in cubes. Marinate for two hours in either sauce. Arrange meat chunks on wood skewers (that have been soaked in water-so the won't burn) and alternate with pineapple chunks, green pepper pieces, cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, zucchini, sweet onion chunks, etc....brush with a little olive oil and grill! It's a meal on a stick!
-I prefer to marinate things in Tupperware or a good old zip lock bag works great! (Somewhere I heard you shouldn't use a metal pan, but it may be an old wife's tale?) Pour the sauce over the meat, turn it a few times, cover, turn it once or twice while it's IN the refrigerator marinating. Don't leave it out on the kitchen counter.
-A good sauce is a good sauce. If you like it, use it as a marinate to flavor and tenderize your meat; or just pour it over your favorite meat, use your favorite cooking method, and enjoy it. If you really love it, serve the resulting meat and sauce over rice so nothing goes to waste.

By Nate JenkinsUpper Republican NRD The Upper Republican NRD has extended the deadline to apply for cost-share funds that significantly reduce the cost of soil-moisture probes for farmers. The new deadline is June 7. Application forms are available on the front page of the NRD website at www.urnrd.org or can be picked up at the NRD office at 511 East Fifth St. in Imperial. Completed forms can be dropped off at the office, mailed to the office at Upper Republican NRD, PO Box 1140, Imperial, NE 69033, scanned and emailed to
A $50,000 grant from the Nebraska Environmental Trust grant, combined with URNRD dollars, are being used to provide cost share on the soil-moisture probes. A grant received last year from the Bureau of Reclamation WaterSMART Water and Energy Efficiency Program will also help fund the program. Under the program, farmers can be reimbursed for up to 2/3 of the cost of soil-moisture probes used in 2013. Reimbursement will be capped at $3,000 per probe that is purchased, and $1,500 per probe that is leased. Proper use of soil-moisture probes can reduce water use by two to four inches per irrigated acre without yield reductions. The Nebraska Environmental Trust Board announced funding for the project at its meeting April 4 in Lincoln. This is the first year of grant funding with a potential for second-year funding totaling $50,000. The project is one of 134 receiving $24,247,260 in grant awards from the Trust this year. The Nebraska Legislature created the Environmental Trust in 1992. Using revenue from the Nebraska Lottery, the Trust has provided more than $199 million in grants to over 1,600 projects across the state. Anyone can apply for funding, which is used to preserve, protect and restore natural resources for future generations. There was strong interest in a similar cost-share program for probes last year. The goal of the program is to increase the number of people that are exposed to use of the probes using the funds. As a result, enrollees in this year's program must not be signed up for the program launched by the NRD last year or are receiving cost share for probes under Natural Resources Conservation Services Programs. Reimbursement under the new program will be limited to two probes per person for 2013. There are no restrictions on what types of soil-moisture probes can be used. The probes must be used within the Upper Republican NRD.

I've been looking at Zimbra again having been sidetracked for the past few months. I wrote a small perl script to simulate sending messages to about a dozen users on the system, message-size of 5 - 10k and sending messages every 2-3 seconds (sometimes that means two messages as once, sometimes none for 6 - 10 seconds).
Anyway - the system load became so high (30+) that I could barely run "uptime" or do anything else on the system. The test machine is an Athlon64 with 1gig of RAM running 32-bit CentOS4.2 (~RHEL4).
Is this remotely normal? This is with no-one actually reading their mail at the same time.
Java & amavisd seem to be the two processes I see at the top of "top" most often. I've tried with swap completely disabled and still get the same kind of load.

San Francisco, CA (Sports Network) - De'End Parker scored a career-high 31
points as the San Francisco Dons made easy work of the Columbia Lions, 79-59,
as part of the San Francisco Hilltop Challenge at War Memorial Gymnasium.

Cody Doolin netted 13 points, while Cole Dickerson tallied a double-double
with 10 points and 14 rebounds.
For Columbia (4-2), Grant Mullins scored 14 points, but he was the only player
to score in double figures. Brian Barbour logged nine points, six assists, and
three steals, but he was plagued by five turnovers.
San Francisco got out to a comfortable 40-27 lead at intermission behind 50
percent field goal shooting in the opening 20 minutes.

the rebounding battle, 40-28.

I wish we had a birthing center around were I live!
The body has a natural rhythm and vibration in general, so does the cord. Interfering with this pulse can "throw" the body/person into disarray. I believe it is still unknown to what degree prematurely clamping the cord affects the holistic life of the mother, and baby.
Founder/Organic Mommy & Baby Healthcare Solutions
I saw the benefits when I was assisting home birth. When the laboring woman has not been given pitocin, narcotics or an epidural the baby tends to have greater reserves--the baby responds better to stress. But sometimes a long pushing phase, or pressure on the umbilical cord during pushing leads to a baby that is blue. In the hospital we cut the cord and run the baby over to the warmer and give oxygen.
In the home setting, a baby that is (but breathes and cries with stimulation) is placed on the mother's chest, skin to skin and the cord is left intact. The blood that is still passing through the umbical cord assists with transition. The skin to skin contact with mother has a positive effect also. I remember being amazed at how well the baby recovered.
Note: we had oxygen and ambu bags with us at the homebirth
Delayed cord clamping is very good most of the time- unless you live at high altitude, then maybe not. The baby can be at higher risk of jaundice and polycythemia.
I first learned about delayed clamping from my midwife, and then went on to discover so much more about "Third Stage Labor" in a fabulous book entitled, 'Gentle Birth, Gentle Mothering' by Sarah Buckley MD. I delivered my daughter here at home (just 11 days ago!), and we did not clamp her cord until after her placenta was delivered and stopped pulsating. It was amazing to feel her little body against mine and literally watch her placenta continue to nourish her in her first moments outside my womb.
I can't say enough as to how wonderful it was to bring our daughter into the world in the serenity of our own home, it was a beautiful experience that I wouldn't trade for anything. And having had both experiences (hospital delivery with our 1st, homebirth with our 2nd), I can say from experience that those choices that don't necessarily "fit in" with the normal hospital procedure are not only respected, but supported.
This is a great book, I have the pdf and it is a wealth of information on this topic - I highly recommend it and the proceeds go to Robin Lim's birth center in Bali
There is an excellent video on youtube of a presentation by Dr. Nick Fogelson about this subject.
Here's the link if you want to check it out. It was really refreshing to see a mainstream OB/GYN embrace the evidence-based research that supports Delayed Cord Clamping.

However, the Hostel could improve on etiquettes such as approaching customers, eye contact, body language, smile, presentation (clothes, introduce uniform for professionalism). By adding these small changes it will help in achieving a customer focus business in which will allow customers to feel at ease as well as recommend hostel to people. Pls warn customers about staffs openning rooms for cleaning and time at check-in. "

Since 1984, IUCN has been committed to gender equality and equity, its efforts are Union-wide and an integral part of all policies, programmes and projects. IUCN considers that its commitment to gender equality and equity means building a Union that understands the issue and whose policies respect diversity.
Gender equality and equity are matters of fundamental human rights and social justice and a preconditions for sustainable development. In the use, management and conservation of natural resources women and men have different roles and responsibilities, which vary greatly from region to region. Women often make their contributions to the family, community and society with unequal access to, control over, and benefits from resources and resource use. This inequality often exists in a context of discrimination and unequal power relationships.
Understanding the linkages between gender relationships and the environment mean achieving a better analysis of pattern use, knowledge and skills regarding conservation and sustainable use of natural resources. Only with a gender perspective in place can a complete picture of human relationships and ecosystems be built up.
A policy statement
The gender equity and equality policy of IUCN constitutes a mechanism to institutionalize a process to secure equal opportunities between women and men, and their relations with the environment. The gender policy facilitates the recognition that women and men have different necessities and interests, rights and responsibilities over their resources, and that they are also affected in different ways by the conservation and development initiatives.
By acknowledging that the sustainable conservation of the environment requires the facilitation of a social change that may transform the relations between human beings and the institutions with the environment, the gender policy identifies the linkages between gender mainstreaming and environment conservation in order to make the initiatives more effective to promote the equitative participation of all people in environmental management.
In 1998, the IUCN Council adopted a Gender Policy Statement and an Action Plan, and appointed a Senior Global Gender Advisor to implement the plan. The Global Senior Gender Advisor has been looking after the process of mainstreaming gender equity and equality throughout the Union, and later updated the Gender Policy in 2007.

Lack of shop time
It's been a few weeks since I've posted anything about my shop reorganization. The reason is, there hasn't been any progress. My wife had minor foot surgery recently and isn't supposed to be walking around, so I'm doing the (read: "all") household chores she can't: laundry, dishes, cooking, cleaning, groceries, running daughter to dance, pick up daughter from dance, etc. It's not quite as bad as "Mr. Mom" from Lonestar, but that song keeps running through my head the last month!
Later this week she's likely to get the ok from the doc to resume "active duty", and she's as anxious to get back to her routine as I am. One thing's for sure: I'll no longer take for granted everything she does around the house.

"Newsroom" star Jeff Daniels had little time to celebrate his Emmy win on Sunday because he had to be in Atlanta the next day to begin filming the follow-up to the 1994 buddy comedy "Dumb and Dumber."
Daniels was the surprise winner for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, beating out competition from strong contenders like Jon Hamm, Bryan Cranston, Kevin Spacey, Damian Lewis and Hugh Bonneville.
Daniels is reprising his role as hapless Harry Dunne in the follow-up to the hit comedy, and he promises fans his onscreen reunion with his co-star Jim Carrey will be worth the wait, even though he faces a shock to the system after playing cerebral newsman Will McAvoy on "The Newsroom."
We're Back!!! #DumbTo pic.twitter.com/u2u42yM2hk
— Jeff Daniels (@Jeff_Daniels) September 24, 2013
"The intellectual free fall from Will McAvoy down to Harry Dunne is going to be jarring," Daniels said. "There are some things that we're going to do in 'Dumb and Dumber To' that make the toilet scene (in the first film) seem lame. (It) pales in comparison and I can't divulge what, but just that they've topped it. They best thing about it? I get to work with a comedic genius."
Meanwhile co-star Jim Carrey has opted to not cover up his famous chipped tooth, which he displayed in the first "Dumb and Dumber" comedy, now he's back on set in Georgia for the film's sequel – in order to amuse fans.
Nearly 20 years after the cult comedy classic was released, Carrey and Daniels are returning to the roles of lovable yet daft best friends.
And Carrey is now proudly sporting his character Lloyd Christmas' prominent chipped front tooth again.
How Roland Rolls comes out TODAY but it may be a little too sophisticated for Lloyd and Harry! Yep… THEY'RE BAAAAA… http://t.co/bhrYxNPKbv
— Jim Carrey (@JimCarrey) September 24, 2013
During an recently taped interview with talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, he explained that while he could have opted to cover up his dental deficiency in public and on TV, it's much more fun to show it off.
He revealed, "I just decided there's a moment in your life when you just gotta let your 'Lloyd' hang out. "I have a bonding on it most of the time and now I don't. But I've decided to just live with it – it's fun. Because wherever I go, people laugh in my face and ask me to open beers for them and stuff. It's really kind of a blast."

This is *the* KEY fact re an Out of Control DOJ
Juxtapose to this, Carmen Ortiz's PR Defense statement foisted on the press far and wide. Do you see any mention at all of JSTOR declining to press charges and MIT insisting on pressing charges come hell or hight water (i.e., that none of this let's-make-a-plea-deal business would not even have happened except for DOJ deciding to do what MIT told it to do? )
Excerpt (note the disingenous statements about how sentencing would have been up the to judge anyway, so "you can't blame me," and that a "reasonable"settlement deal was on the table -- well, if you consider making a kid sit in jail for 6 months "reasonable" in the circumsances):
"That is why in the discussions with his counsel about a resolution of the case this office sought an appropriate sentence that matched the alleged conduct – a sentence that we would recommend to the judge of six months in a low security setting. While at the same time, his defense counsel would have been free to recommend a sentence of probation. Ultimately, any sentence imposed would have been up to the judge. At no time did this office ever seek – or ever tell Mr. Swartz's attorneys that it intended to seek – maximum penalties under the law."
[Apologies if you were eating lunch.]

Kamakshi Tandon is on it. The ESPN scribe, who is following the controversy surrounding WTA Tour's Roadmap 2010, has made a valiant attempt to break down the supremely confusing Roadmap into 10 major highlights - a "WTA's Roapmap 2010 Guide for Dummies" which is something I can understand, at least I think so.
Most of the Top 10 is pretty understandable: No. 4 - a longer off-season! No. 5 - more prize money!! No. 9 - Bye bye to first round byes!!!
But here's where the confusion and controversy lie:
1. Premier tournaments
The WTA tournaments below the Grand Slams are currently divided into four groups: Tier I, Tier II, Tier III and Tier IV. Officially, there will be just two next year -- premier and international events.
Unofficially, however, the premier events will consist of four distinct types: mandatory (all eligible players must play), premier five (seven of the top 10), premier (two to three of the top six marquee players), and open (no minimum or maximum commitment because the events are a week before a Grand Slam or the year-end championships -- expect a feast-or-famine situation).
Mandatory events: Indian Wells, Miami, Madrid and Beijing
Premier five: Dubai, Rome, Canada, Cincinnati and Tokyo
Premier: Paris indoors, Charleston, Stuttgart, Stanford, Los Angeles and Tokyo
Premier open: Sydney, Berlin, Eastbourne, New Haven and Moscow
2. International tournaments
These will be a minor league of sorts for the tour, as only one of the top 20 will be allowed to participate in each event. Top players will be able to play only one international tournament during each half of the season. This would allow a player like Radwanska to play her home event in Warsaw but would limit her to premier events for the rest of the summer and fall.
There also will be a year-end event in Bali for the top eight performers in international events -- a poor woman's Sony Ericsson championships, as it were.
Essentially, the WTA Tour is being split into two tribes: the big ballers vs. the baby ballers and rarely the twain shall meet.
So a top-20 lady baller is only allowed to play one "international" minor league tourney huh? I guess the days of entering these lower-tier tourneys to grab confidence-building wins and quick cash for gracing the masses with their appearance are over.

What if there are two Top 20 Polish lady "baller" and both want to play at the home event?ReplyDelete
Well at the point there's only Aggie Radwanska but if there were a second Top 20 Polish lady baller, only one could enter the International tourney under these rules.ReplyDelete
It seems like this rule will cause some big issues in the future. We'll see.

Aggie Radwanksa's got a sister, Urzela, but she still a junior I believe.ReplyDelete
The roadmap is so confusing. This is the first I've seen it interpreted as essentially 2 different leagues.

Another storm with low temps, high winds, and 6 inches of snow closed schools all over West Virginia yesterday and gave me the time to experiment some more with animation.
I have Photoshop Elements but it's so complicated I haven't used it much and became frustrated trying to understand how to use it so I went back to the gifmaker website. [I need to study up in the couple of books I have on how to use PS Elements because it's probably the best way to go.]
The animation shows Io's shadow beginning a transit followed an hour later by Europa's shadow. Meanwhile the Great Red Spot rotates from the central meridian to the limb.
I wish I could dissolve from one frame to the next but gifmaker doesn't have that function. I'm hoping PS Elements does. I also wish I had more sketches to put in the sequence. Comments welcome.

Two Juco All-Americans, Preps Join Cyclone Fold
AMES, Iowa - The Iowa State football program pulled another recruiting coup Wednesday, inking a pair of Junior College All-Americans who will join the Cyclones for the start of the second semester. Iowa Western running back Aaron Wimberly and Arizona Western tight end Emmanuel Bibbs were both junior college All-Americans in 2012.
Wimberly rushed for 1,150 yards and 13 touchdowns as Iowa Western completed a 12-0 season last month en route to the NJCAA national title. Bibbs caught 22 passes for 230 yards and six TDs for an 8-2 Arizona Western team.
"Both Aaron and Emmanuel are playmakers," Iowa State head coach Paul Rhoads said. "Every time Aaron got his hands on the ball, you thought he could go all the way. Emmanuel is a tight end that can make people miss. Defenses had to respect his big-play ability. Both are great additions to our program. Alton Meeks and Shawn Curtis will have a real advantage coming in early and have a shot at playing right away."
Also joining the Iowa State fold are high schoolers Alton Meeks and Shawn Curtis of Orlando, Fla. Meeks is a 6-3, 240-pound linebacker and Curtis is a 6-5, 270-pound offensive lineman. Wimberly and the two high school standouts will start school at Iowa State in January.

Zimbra has been running well for a week now. Yesterday morning I get a call saying that one of our users can't access their email (in outlook.) i try to access the 7071 zimbra admin, but that page doesn't come up. additionally the webmail doesn't work either. I ssh in and "service zimbra restart"
the only thing I noticed was that on the service shutdown, the smtp part failed to shutdown (probably because it had already abnormally shutdown.)
Everything came up fine and is working well again.
How do I track down the root cause of this problem? Which logs would provide me with clues as to what went wrong?

Fischer, 25, faces first-degree murder charges.
At 11:30 p.m. on Saturday, police responded to a home in the 4600 block of Miller Street after the man's roommate discovered him in the backyard.
The victim shared the house with two other people.
The name of the victim is Howard Benjamin Adler, 26. Adler died from multiple stab wounds.
In 2009, the property was identified as a "Chop Shop" by law enforcement officials. Approximately 12 stolen vehicles were recovered and several arrests were made in connection to that case. Police stress that the current residents were not involved in the previous case.
