Breaking Dawn Part 2 Makes $72 Million Friday, But Won't Beat New Moon
Breaking Dawn Part 2 could in many ways be the biggest film of the Twilight franchise, what with the enormous battle scene, the many vampires coming in from all over the world to help Bella and Edward, and of course, the "they lived happily ever after" ending. But it won't be the biggest at the box office, at least in its opening weekend

Does Breaking Dawn's Aging Audience Prove Twilight Is Just A Fad?
It seems safe to conclude that the Twilight audience is aging with the movies, without bringing in a significant number of younger fans to join the phenomenon. Compare that to the Harry Potter films, which throughout their 10-year run consistently brought in kids, to the point that the kids seeing Deathly Hallows Part 2 in theaters weren't even born when Sorcerer's Stone came out in 2001

8 Movie Weddings We'd Rather Attend Than Edward And Bella's
Breaking Dawn is far from the first movie to throw a big ol' wedding, and we'd argue it doesn't do it nearly as well as a lot of other classics. From a blended-cultures reception where the bride wears a sari and a Brazilian drum line plays to the poofy shoulder pads of an 80s party, weddings on film can often look way more fun than the ones you attend in real life

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- It used to be on Election Day, you'd stand shoulder to shoulder with members of your community in national show of democracy in action. This year, Election Day has become more like Election month.
Thirty million people have already headed to the polls and cast their ballots. This is a new record for early-voting and we have a decent idea which way the political winds are blowing.
The votes so far are giving a slight edge in the Presidential contest to President Barack Obama over challenger Mitt Romney. Keep in mind, these are thin results from early voting areas, including 34 states and the District of Columbia.
Party loyalists are the most likely to turn out early and this election will likely come down to independent voters. Also, some states have reported a heavy turnout of registered Democrats verses Republicans. This is still an incredibly close race.
There have also been plenty of problems with early voting this year. Hurricane Sandy forced last-minute scrambling across the East Coast. There are already concerns of ballots being destroyed or going missing. In Virginia, early voting was delayed and in Florida, voters waited in lines as long as 4 hours in the sun.

July 17, 2014
LUBBOCK, Texas - Gabe Rivera and Zach Thomas highlight a list of nine former Texas Tech student-athletes who will be inducted into the Southwest Conference Hall of Fame this fall. Gerald Myers and Polk Robison, meanwhile, will be inducted as student-athletes, coaches and administrators.

Andre Tillman, meanwhile, will be inducted on Oct. 20 during an induction ceremony held at the Omni Hotel in downtown Fort Worth. Tillman is one of nine former SWC student-athletes or coaches to be inducted at that luncheon.
The SWC Hall of Fame is one of four separate halls of fame housed within the Texas Sports Hall of Fame which is located in Waco.

For tickets, please contact the Red Raider Club at 806-742-1196.
Michi Atkins
Michi Atkins was a member of the Texas Tech women's basketball program from 1992-96 and, as a freshman, was a key contributor off the bench for the 1993 national championship team. She was named All-Southwest Conference each of the next three seasons including Southwestern Conference Tournament MVP in 1995. Atkins averaged 20.9 points per game her senior season en route to Southwest Conference Player of the Year and first team All-American honors. Atkins was named a Kodak honorable mention All-American as both a junior and senior. She garnered first team All-American honors from Basketball Times and the United Press International as a senior. Atkins finished her career as one of the Southwest Conference's all-time leading scorer with 2,134 points which ranks third on the school's career scoring list. She is also among the Texas Tech all-time leaders for points per game, field goals made and rebounds. Atkins was inducted into the Texas Tech Hall of Fame in 2006.
Amanda Banks
Amanda Banks was a member of the Texas Tech track and field team from 1987-90 and was one of the most dominant women's triple jumpers in the Southwest Conference. She won the 1988 and 1989 SWC triple jump titles and still owns the four longest indoor and three longest outdoor jumps in school history. She earned indoor and outdoor All-American recognition as a senior, highlighted by a second-place finish in the 1989 NCAA Outdoor Championships. Her outdoor school record jump of 42-11 3/4 is almost two feet longer than any other jump in Texas Tech history. Following her impressive collegiate career, Banks, a native of El Paso, Texas, jumped professionally for 10 years, rising as high as high as No. 4 nationally. She was inducted into the Texas Tech Hall of Fame in 2004. Banks was the first Lady Raider track and field student-athlete to enter the Texas Tech Hall of Fame, the highest honor for former athletes.
Clint Bryant
Clint Bryant played baseball for Texas Tech from 1993-96 and is the most decorated All-American in Texas Tech Baseball history. He was named All-Southwest Conference in three of his four seasons, won SWC Player of the Year twice (1995 & 1996), and was named SWC Male Athlete of the Year for the 1995-96 school year. During his junior and senior seasons, Bryant became the first Red Raider to ever earn first team All-America honors in back-to-back seasons. He remains Texas Tech's career leader in nine offensive categories, including hits (341), home runs (44), doubles (73), RBI (271), and runs scored (271). Behind Bryant's steady bat in the lineup, the Red Raiders went 171-64 overall during Bryant's four seasons while collecting the SWC regular season and tournament championships in 1995. Texas Tech advanced to the postseason in each of Bryant's final two seasons, falling a win shy of the College World Series in 1995 before falling to Southern Cal in the NCAA Central Regional a year later hosted in Lubbock. Off the field, he excelled in the classroom being named the Baseball Academic All-American of the Year in 1996. Bryant's No. 23 jersey is one of four numbers retired at Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park and one of just two retired for a former player. He was drafted in the seventh round of the 1996 MLB Draft by the Colorado Rockies. Bryant was inducted into the Texas Tech Hall of Fame in 2006.
Krista Kirkland-Gerlich
Krista Kirkland-Gerlich was the starting shooting guard on the 1993 Texas Tech National Championship team. During her stellar playing career from 1989-93, Gerlich was a three-time All-Southwest Conference selection as well as a member of the SWC All-Tournament team in 1993 and an honorable mention All-American that year. She helped lead the Lady Raiders to a pair of Southwest Conference titles in 1992 and 1993 as part of her playing career that included 96-consecutive games in the starting lineup. She played in a total of 126 games over four seasons, missing only two contests during her freshman season. She finished as the Texas Tech and Southwest Conference all-time leader in three-point field goals made (220) and three-pointers attempted (528). She still ranks among the Texas Tech all-time leaders in both scoring and assists. Gerlich dished out 553 assists during her career which was the most in school history at the conclusion of her career. Texas Tech retired Gerlich's infamous No. 21 jersey on Dec. 5, 1993. She is one of four teammates from the 1993 National Championship team that was part of the Lady Raider All-SWC Team that was announced prior to the conference's closing in 1996. The nearby Sudan, Texas native has gone on to a successful coaching career, spending three seasons under Marsha Sharp on the Texas Tech bench before taking over as the head coach at West Texas A&M. Gerlich was named the head coach at UT Arlington prior to the 2013-14 season. She was inducted into the Texas Tech Hall of Fame in 2003.
Bubba Jennings
Bubba Jennings played four seasons for the Texas Tech basketball team from 1980-85 and is one of the most decorated players in program history. Jennings led the Red Raiders to the Southwest Conference regular season and tournament championships during his final season in 1985 en route to earning SWC Player of the Year as well as honorable mention All-America honors. The Clovis, N.M. native was also named the SWC Tournament MVP, the SWC Athlete of the Year and the Francis Pomeroy Naismith Award which is presented annually to the nation's top player under six-feet-tall. Jennings started all 117 games of his Texas Tech career, finishing with 1,760 points which at the time was the most in school history. He still ranks among the top 10 for several statistical categories, including scoring and free throws. Jennings was known for his accuracy from the charity strip as he totaled a .851 career free throw percentage that easily the highest in program history until Alan Voskuil broke the record in 2008. He was drafted with the 86th overall pick in the 1985 NBA Draft by the Dallas Mavericks. Jennings went on to a successful coaching career which included 12 seasons on the Texas Tech bench as either an assistant coach or video coordinator. Jennings was inducted into the Texas Tech Hall of Fame in 1995.
Dub Malaise
Dub Malaise averaged over 20 points per game during his career as a member of the Texas Tech Basketball team (1964-66) and is known as one of the Red Raider's most prolific scorers in program history. He earned first team All-Southwest Conference honors in each of his three seasons and was named the Southwest Conference Player of the Year as well as an All-American in 1965 after averaging 23.8 points per game. Malaise still holds the school record for most points in a game with 50 against Texas in 1966. He holds the school record for most free throws in a season with 191 and is second in several school categories such as career free throws made (452), career scoring average (20.3), and single-season scoring average (23.7). Malaise helped the Red Raiders to their first SWC title in 1965. The conference title was later forfeited due to an ineligible player. Malaise was inducted into the Texas Tech Hall of Fame in 1984.
Gerald Myers
Gerald Myers is synonymous with Texas Tech and the Double T after spending the majority of his life as a student-athlete, coach or administrator. Myers earned three letters as a member of the Red Raider basketball team from 1957-59, the first three years of Texas Tech's tenure in the Southwest Conference. Myers became Texas Tech's first All-SWC performer in any sport in 1958 when he helped lead the Red Raiders to a 15-8 record and third-place finish in the conference standings. He was also named a first team All-American by United Press International for players under six-feet-tall. Myers later went on to become the winningest men's basketball coach in Texas Tech history after posting a 326-261 record during his 20 seasons leading the Red Raiders. Myers led Texas Tech to two SWC Championships, four NCAA Tournament appearances and one NIT appearance. He was named the SWC Coach of the Year five times during his career and was also recognized by his peers who elected him president of the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC). Myers later served as Texas Tech's director of athletics from 1996-2011 where he helped the school transition from the SWC to its current home in the Big 12. During his tenure as athletics director, Myers helped generate more than $250 million in new facility construction and renovations while significantly raising the yearly athletics budget as well. His guidance benefited each sports program as Texas Tech boasted several of the top athletics facilities in the country, including United Supermarkets Arena which was built early in Myers' tenure. The new athletics facilities built across campus is considered the largest facility upgrade in school history. Myers' success at Texas Tech also led to national recognition and responsibilities as he served on the NCAA Golf Committee and the Division I NCAA Men's Basketball Selection Committee. He also served two terms on the NCAA Men's Basketball Rules Committee. He received the Gen. R. Newland Outstanding Athletic Director Award and the NABC Metropolitan Award during his tenure. Myers was inducted into the Texas Tech Hall of Honor in 1969. He is also a member of the Texas High School Basketball Hall of Fame and the Panhandle Sports Hall of Fame. Myers continues to serve the university as athletics director emeritus.
Gabe Rivera
"Señor Sack" played for the Texas Tech Football program from 1979-82, finishing his four-year career with 321 tackles, 34 tackles-for-loss, 14 sacks, 11 pass deflections, and six fumble recoveries. Combining his incredible 300-pound frame with 4.8 speed, Rivera earned honorable mention All-American honors as a sophomore before being recognized as a consensus first team All-American and the Southwest Conference Defensive Player of the Year as a senior. Rivera was the first Red Raider in program history to ever be named a consensus All-American. He would later be named to the Southwest Conference All-Decade team, the National Football Foundation Hall of Fame and the College Football Hall of Fame. He was selected 21st overall by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1983 NFL Draft. Rivera was inducted into the Texas Tech Hall of Fame in 1993. He will become the fourth Red Raider to be enshrined into the prestigious Texas Tech Football Ring of Honor on Sept. 13 when the Red Raiders host former SWC foe, Arkansas, at Jones AT&T Stadium.
Polk F. Robison
Polk Robison spent 41 years at Texas Tech as a player, coach, athletics director and later as its business manager. He was the head coach of the Texas Tech men's basketball team from 1942-46 and again from 1947-61 before serving as the university's athletics director from 1961-69. His success in the Border Conference, where he won three conference titles, played a pivotal role in Texas Tech's admission into the Southwest Conference. He was named the Southwest Conference Coach of the Year in 1960 before leading the Red Raiders to their first SWC Championship a year later, his final season as head coach. Robison, who lettered at Texas Tech from 1933-35, closed his coaching career with a 248-195 overall record and a .563 winning percentage that was boosted by 13 winning seasons. His 248 career victories were the most in Texas Tech history at the time of his retirement. Robison played a role in designing the Lubbock Municipal Coliseum, which was the home for the Red Raiders from 1956 until United Supermarkets Arena was built in 1999. He was honored by the naming of the Polk Robison - Jeanne McHaney Hall of Champions in United Supermarkets Arena featuring a bronze bust pedestal of him as basketball coach. Robison was inducted into the Texas Tech Hall of Fame in 1976.
Zach Thomas
Zach Thomas became one of the most infamous linebackers to ever wear a Red Raider uniform from 1993-95 where he recorded 390 career tackles, including 131 during his senior season alone. Thomas, a Pampa, Texas native, earned first team All-America honors during his junior season before becoming just the second Red Raider all-time to be named a consensus first team All-American a year later. Thomas, a two-time All-Southwest Conference selection, was the SWC Defensive Player of the Year as a senior following one of the most impressive defensive campaigns in program history. Thomas became a household name that year for his game-winning interception against Texas A&M where he picked off Corey Pullig's pass and darted 23 yards into the endzone in one of the most memorable plays in Texas Tech history. The interception, which came with just 30 seconds remaining in the game, pushed the Red Raiders to a 14-7 victory over the rival Aggies, a moment that is still replayed to this day. He would later be named a finalist for the Butkus Award, which is presented annually to the nation's top linebacker. Thomas' 390 career tackles were third-most for a Red Raider during the Southwest Conference era. He still remains among the school's all-time leaders for tackles, ranking fifth in the category heading into the 2014 season. Thomas was drafted in the fifth round of the 1996 NFL Draft by the Miami Dolphins. He went on to become one of the greatest players in Dolphins history as he was named to the All-Pro Team seven times in his 10 seasons in Miami, the most ever for a defensive player in franchise history. Thomas was inducted into the Texas Tech Hall of Fame in 2006.
Andre Tillman
Andre Tillman was an All-American tight end at Texas Tech from 1970 to 1973. He made the Southwest Conference All-Freshmen team and was the Sun Bowl's top receiver as a junior. The 6' 5" force was an All-Southwest Conference selection who helped his team go 11-1 and win the Gator Bowl his senior year. He led the team in pass receiving with 26 catches for 428 yards and 5 touchdowns. Tillman finished his college career by playing in the Hula and Senior Bowl before getting drafted into the NFL by Miami in the second round. He played for the Dolphins for five seasons.
Tillman will be inducted into the SWC Hall of Fame in a separate ceremony held Oct. 20 at the Omni Hotel in downtown Fort Worth.

Clarence Harding's '69 Chevelle SS396Written by on November 1, 2001 Contributors: Matt King A Love That Lasts
As car crafters, we've all heard a significant other say "You love that car more than you love me." That's usually just an exaggeration, but sometimes it has a grain of truth--at least it did for Clarence Harding. In 1979, 20-year-old Clarence had saved up some cash to buy his high school sweetheart an engagement ring, but temptation set in when he spotted a newspaper ad for this '69 SS396 Chevelle. We bet you can guess what happened--he put up the $1,300 for the 427-powered A-body, and the high school crush moved on. That proved to be a wise decision, because 22 years later, Clarence is happily married and still has his Chevelle.
Granted, it's hardly the same car he hauled home in 1979. Since he's owned it, his SS396 has seen three different engines, four transmissions, and a couple of paint jobs. It's evolved from a 12-second, 427ci bracket racer into a 502-powered, electronic fuel injected, 10-second thrill ride. In 1994, after a 9-year repose in a chicken coop, the car underwent a frame-off restoration that led to this latest and baddest incarnation. Clarence tore off the Chevelle's body, pulled the chassis completely apart, hit everything with the sandblaster, and coated every component with a tough industrial epoxy (trust us, it still looks fresh today). Polyurethane bushings replaced the rotted rubber biscuits in the rear suspension, and Hotchkis control arms were enlisted for service after the stock rear lowers buckled from the big-block's torque. Global West Del-a-Lum bushings were installed in the front suspension for bind-free operation, and Wilwood discs replaced the stock binders at every corner. The underside of the body was laboriously stripped of rust and undercoating and painted to match the chassis. The original Cortez Silver hue was changed to basic Sikkens White, augmented by a factory black side stripe. The imminent sub-12-second timeslips mandated the installation of a 'cage, but the swing-away sidebars make entry and egress relatively painless. And the motor? How does a 723-horse, Lingenfelter-built 502 grab you? It's fed a steady diet of 100-octane unleaded (oxygen sensors don't like leaded fuel) via ACCEL DFI, so don't believe the deceptively mild idle quality. The simple laptop tunability of the DFI system allows Clarence to detune the motor to stay competitive in the NMCA EFI 11 class. Cold air is ducted into the big-block courtesy of an owner-fabricated system that draws atmosphere from the high-beam headlight housings. A 4L80E four-speed overdrive tranny was originally fitted behind the 502, but the lack of transbrake availability convinced Clarence to bolt up a Coan-built Turbo 400. The factory 12-bolt rear was shelved in favor of a Moser 9-inch fitted with a Detroit Locker and 4.10:1 gears. After some experimentation with airbags, Clarence installed an antiroll bar to straighten out the launch. He's run a best time of 10.367 at 127 mph, which is likely enough to eat most race cars for lunch--you know, the ones that won't idle below 1,500 rpm. And while the competition is sweating bullets because their Lexan windows don't roll down, Clarence can cruise through the pits in the cool confines of an interior equipped with power windows, a tilt wheel, and a Vintage Air A/C system.
And if you're still lamenting the lost love that took second place to the 'Velle, let's settle the decision with a question: Which one would you rather take to your 25th high school reunion? We thought so.
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
No rocket science here, just a well-tuned rear suspension. Clarence uses adjustable Koni shocks, a Competition Engineering antiroll bar, and adjustable upper control arms to dial in the pinion angle. The Lincoln 9-inch looks bulletproof, and it has survived countless wheels-up launches off the transbrake.ACCEL digital fuel injection gives this Lingenfelter-built big-block a strictly business look. Don't worry--it can back up the image. Brodix heads, a big Comp roller cam, and efficient induction and exhaust systems help the mill produce 700-plus horsepower. Equally impressive is the cleanliness and detail of the engine compartment. Clarence filled and smoothed the firewall and hid the Vintage Air A/C lines inside the fender for a Spartan-looking engine bay.The cold-air induction system deletes the high beams to duct cooler, denser atmosphere into the 502. Clarence told us it required minimal clearancing of the core support, so the brights can be reinstalled if necessary. Don't miss the rare fiber-optic lamp monitor on the crown of the fender.What's this? A laptop computer in a '69 Chevelle? In a few minutes, Clarence can modify and upload various fuel and ignition maps into the ACCEL DFI's computer to compensate for track conditions. Detuning the big 502 is necessary to stay competitive in the EFI 11 class, which runs on a minimum 11-second index. The laptop makes it quick and easy to take a few ponies out of the Rat. Check out the factory tilt wheel and power windows and the switches hidden under the console door. Swap out the race buckets and tach, and the interior is pure, unadulterated '69 Chevelle.

25-cent Android apps to celebrate 25 billion Google Play downloads
Google Play — the central store where Android users can download apps for their smartphones and tablets — celebrates 25 billion downloads today. To hype this historic moment in Google history, the company is discounting certain apps to only 25¢ for the next five days.
Each day Android users will be able to choose from a collection of apps from developers like Gameloft, Electronic Arts, Rovio, Runtastic and Full Fat. Google is also offering a collection of 25 movies, 25 banned books, 25 magazines and 25 albums, aslo at discounted prices.
Right now the only apps worth downloading in this daily sale are Angry Birds Space Premium, Asphalt 7: Heat and Symphony of Eternity (only if you're into Super Nintendo- era RPGs though). For the most part, though, the rest of the applications on sale really aren't worth anyone's time.
Google Play hosts 657,000 applications and games. But it doesn't matter how cheap Google makes their Android apps, the store will always pale in comparison to Apple's App Store in terms of selection and variety (especially when it comes to gaming).
As a random side note, 25 billion is more than twice the distance (in miles) that the Voyager 1 spacecraft has travelled since its launch 35 years ago.

Advice from the Bride:
Stay organized! It makes your wedding day so much easier to enjoy! Organization and planning helps things go a so much smoother during the big event. If you want things set up a specific way… do a mock set up before hand with the "dessert table", "sign in table", "dinner table" etc. and take pictures of your layout to give to your event crew so that they understand what you want and will set it up the way you envisioned.
Figure out what the most important part of the wedding will be to you, and spend money where it matters for you. For me, I wanted my wedding to be a beautiful-fun party, and I wanted to capture the beautiful-fun party. So the bulk of my money was spent on flowers, and photography.

I've had issues upgrading from zimbra 3.0_GA156 to 3.1_GA332. Therefore, I stopped zimbra, moved /opt/zimbra to /opt/zimbra.bak, ran `rpm -e` on all zimbra rpms, and then installed 3.1. When I did a new install of 3.1 it works correctly.
Now that I have version 3.1 running, how can I migrate my /opt/zimbra.bak data to my new zimbra install? I only have 1 user (myself) that is on this mail server. I don't care about any searches or tags that I setup. I just want to move my folders and the messages within them over to my new install.

Born: 03/20/1922
Birth Place: Bronx, New York, USA
Reiner was born on March 20, 1922 in the Bronx, NY, where he was raised along with his older brother, Charles. His watchmaker father, Irving Reiner, supported his wife Bessie and his two boys, but despite a keen sense of invention, was unable to translate these ideas into fortunes. As a teen, Reiner had a job as a shipping clerk and assisted in a machinist's shop. At 16, his brother turned him on to a classically-influenced drama workshop put on by the Works Progress Administration. After joining up, Reiner was strongly bitten by the acting bug and always credited his sibling with steering the course of his later career. By 18, Reiner had his first professional acting jobs in "As You Like It... Continue Bio >>

Cassandra was in the seventh grade when she first experienced major depression. "I was in a really low mood all the time," she recalls. "I liked school. I had a nice group of friends. My home life was good. But, I was depressed. Nothing had happened to trigger it, which was the worst part. I put on a really good front, so nobody knew anything was wrong. I was very good at hiding my feelings."In an attempt to reduce her pain, Cassandra started cutting. "The first time I self-injured, I thought this is gonna be trouble. I never used drugs or alcohol, but I continued cutting throughout seventh grade and kept it a secret from everyone."
Soon, Cassandra's arms and legs were etched with small, blood-stained slashes, while her inner turmoil worsened. To everyone else though, she continued to appear well adjusted. Her friends came to her with their problems because she had good advice. Her teachers, even her family, were unaware of her pain.
Then, Cassandra's little sister started asking questions. After Cassandra told her about what she was going through, her sister told her parents. "I was partly relieved and partly not," Cassandra remembers. "I was glad my parents knew, but I was scared, too."
Cassandra's parents immediately sought treatment for their daughter. Cassandra learned an approach called dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT).
"Before I learned DBT, I thought cutting was helping me, but it wasn't," Cassandra says. "It was making everything ten times worse. I had to hide from everyone and lead a double-life. When I was depressed, I didn't think I was going to make it. I couldn't see the future. Now, I'm excited about school. I'm especially excited about helping people and easing their pain. When I have a bad day, I feel more confident because I have skills I can use and I also have a support system. My parents have been very supportive."
Another positive step Cassandra has taken is volunteering to help young people recognize depression, as a teen speaker for Families for Depression Awareness. Cassandra has spoken in front of groups of students in high school health classes and at parents' forums in the Boston area. "I feel good telling my story because I like helping other people. I wish someone had come into my school and told me about depression and cutting when I was in high school so I could have known what to do."
"Learning DBT skills is hard at first," explains Cassandra. "But after a while, they become second nature. I'm learning to recognize negative situations instead of being overwhelmed by them or hiding from them. Another skill I learned is to ask for what I need by talking to someone or calling my therapist. A skill I like a lot is called opposite-to-emotion-action. You do something you are totally not in the mood to do, like go to the movies when you want to stay home and be alone. I use that skill a lot."
Today, Cassandra is a freshman in college. She hasn't been depressed in a while and hasn't relapsed in over a year. She continues to work with her therapist and says that she is "pretty happy right now."
Cassandra's mom, Leslie, says parents need to know that they aren't alone. "Hang in there. Persevere. There is a light at the end of the tunnel," she says. "It's not about feeling guilty. There's no blame involved. It's not your fault or your kid's fault. It's about acceptance, understanding, and listening. I have five kids and I think that gives me a pretty good overview. I think people are born with or have a predisposition to mental illness. Having a support system is vitally important. Families for Depression Awareness is a great starting point."

I've installed the latest M4_62 version of Zimbra this morning on a newly installed CentOS4 server. During the setup of Zimbra & fetchmail I had a slight problem which meant that mail (spam, actually) that should have gone to my local mailbox is being forwarded to another ISP (I think it was bounced). Unfotunately this mail has been in the outbound queue all day and Zimbra keeps trying to deliver it, is there any way in Zimbra to delete this mail from the queue? If it's not possible in Zimbra what else could I do to get rid of this junk? Will there be any feature added to Zimbra that will allow the management of the outbound queue for situations such as this?
I'm assuming this isn't a Zimbra problem but any help would be appreciated. I use webmin to set-up and manage fetchmail from several ISP accounts, when I had Zimbra installed on my last server I only had to enter the local username in the webmin/fetchmail config to get it delivered locally to the FQDN mailbox. On this new server I've done the same thing but fetchmail tries to deliver the mail to username@localhost rather than the FQDN mailbox name. This has caused the problem of getting mail bounced (which I've mentioned above), can anyone suggest what I may have done wrong? I've been scratching my head about this all day. I can't see anything strange in the logs other than the failed deliver messages.

The payment of tuition, course fees, dorm room, Dining Dollars, meal plan, and parking decal charges is a part of the registration process known as "confirming your schedule." Payment or Payment Plan participation is required before each semester's registration is complete (confirmed). All prior semester charges must be paid before the student's enrollment will be confirmed for a subsequent semester.
Students will be notified via myBama e-mail when to access their student account at myBama to see each billing period's activity. No paper bills will be mailed. Payment/Confirmation deadlines will be included in the e-mail. These notices will occur in late July for the fall semester, late November for the spring semester, and late April for the summer term.
For current billing dates and payment/confirmation dates, go online to studentreceivables.ua.edu and select "Payment Deadlines/Confirmation."
The student may confirm his or her schedule on the Web when paying the specified payment in full, or the deferment plan amount after selecting "Confirm/Pay" on the Account Summary by Term. The Office of Student Receivables will confirm payments received through the mail, on the telephone, or made in person for the specified payment in full, or for the deferment plan amounts.
Payments may be made online after logging onto your myBama account, by credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover) and electronic check; through the mail by check or credit card mailed to The University of Alabama, Office of Student Receivables, Box 870120, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487-0120; by telephone, (205) 348-4470, with a credit card; or in person at the Office of Student Receivables, 105 Student Services Center, by cash, check, or credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover).
Other forms of payment include: financial aid, scholarships disbursed or authorized (reflected on the student's account); sponsoring agency contracts; tuition assistance from various private, federal, and state funds; the Alabama P.A.C.T. program; tuition assistantships, University faculty/staff or departmental grants. If all or a portion of a student's registration expenses are to be paid by some type of financial aid or by a sponsoring agency and the student's account does not reflect this actual or projected transaction, it is the student's responsibility to provide written evidence of this support to the Office of Student Receivables.
Automatic Schedule Confirmation/Not Attending Cancellation
The student's schedule will be automatically confirmed after the confirmation/payment deadline if the student has sufficient payment from authorized or actual credits (e.g., financial aid, scholarships, third party contracts, etc.) reflected on the account to pay all registration costs. Thus, if the student will not be attending, it will be necessary for the student to indicate this on his or her myBama student account no later than the confirmation/cancellation deadline date. The myBama student account also has an option of indicating that the student will be attending thus confirming the schedule at an earlier point. Once the schedule has been confirmed, the student will be liable for charges incurred and must officially withdraw through the Academic Records office.
Allowing Others to Conduct Business for the Student – Parent/Guest Accounts
A student may allow a parent or other individual to view his or her financial student account and to conduct business (i.e., make a payment, elect deferment plan option, confirm the schedule) on the student's behalf. The student will assign a user ID and password, through his/her myBama account, to allow this access and will need to give this information to the individual(s) authorized by the student. It is still the student's responsibility to make sure that the schedule has been confirmed by the deadline, and that payments are made through out the semester by payment deadlines.
BAMA Plan Installment Payment Option
The University of Alabama offers a way to pay basic annual (fall and spring semesters) University expenses (tuition, residence hall, Dinning Dollars, campus meal plan charges, and parking decal costs) in10manageable monthly installments through the BAMA Plan—Bama's Affordable Monthly Alternative. There are no interest charges, only a $55 annual participation fee for BAMA Plan convenience.
With the BAMA Plan, monthly payments can be deducted automatically from a checking account, eliminating the need to write and mail checks every few weeks and ensuring that payments are received on time. Direct billing for each BAMA Plan monthly payment is an option also. The first payment is due June 5, for those who apply on time for the BAMA Plan. Late application is possible through July 5 with a larger initial payment.
Summer term charges are not eligible for the BAMA Plan. For more information and an application on the BAMA Plan, go online to studentreceivables.ua.edu/bamaplan.html.
Students who meet the following eligibility requirements may defer up to one-half of the current semester charges for tuition, residence hall charges, Dining Dollars, meal plans, and parking decal:
The required payment of one-half of the current semester registration charges can be made by cash, check, money order, electronic check, credit card (VISA, MasterCard, or Discover), financial aid applied to the student's account, faculty/staff or graduate-student grants, sponsoring agency contracts, or anticipated financial aid verified by the Office of Student Financial Aid. The deferred amount plus a deferment fee, currently $30.00, is payable by the midpoint of the semester. This option will be offered on the Web when the student or designee accesses his or her account to confirm the schedule.
Other Financial Payment Policies
Continuing students who register for courses after the confirmation deadline will be charged a $25.00 late registration fee.
All charges collected during the registration process are subject to correction for errors in calculation to ensure that correct amounts are collected as required by the board of trustees and current policies of the University.
Meal plans contracted for after the student has confirmed registration for the semester must be paid in full at the Bama Dining office.
Payment of registration charges with a check that is subsequently returned from the bank unpaid will result in an additional late registration fee and a returned check fee. Failure to clear a returned check taken in payment for registration charges will result in administrative withdrawal from classes. Once this action is taken, the student cannot be reinstated for the semester, but will owe the prorated portion of the charges for tuition and dorm room charges as specified in the "Withdrawal from the University" section.
Financial aid (other than work-study) is applied to a student's account in payment of institutional charges. No refund will be made on applied aid unless the student's account reflects a credit balance.
Miscellaneous Expenses and Payment
Miscellaneous expenses such as library fines, parking fines, and student health center charges are applied to your student account throughout the term. Students will need to access their student accounts at myBama to view additional charges incurred during the course of the semester and the due dates to prevent late payment charges from applying. E-mail reminders will be sent to the student's myBama account for each billing cycle.
For a list of miscellaneous fees and current fee amounts, go online to cost.ua.edu.
In the event of a past due balance of any nature on the student's account, diplomas will not be issued; enrollment for subsequent terms will not be allowed; college credits will not be transferred; and transcripts of college credits will not be released until the balance is paid in full.
Failure to meet financial obligations of any kind to the University could subject the student to eviction from University housing; suspension of future services; referral of the student's delinquent account to a collection agency; and the assessment of additional late payment charges, transcript hold fees, attorney's fees, and other costs and charges necessary for the collection of any amount not paid when due.
If a student's University account has an outstanding balance and the University has in its possession any funds payable to the student (from payments or credits applied to the student's account, payroll checks, and/or any other source, except as noted in "Use of Federal Financial Aid to Pay Prior Year Charges" section), the University reserves the right to withhold the funds necessary to clear the student's outstanding balance and to cover any collection costs incurred. Once those amounts are paid, any remaining funds are paid to the student.
For more information, contact The University of Alabama, Office of Student Receivables, Box 870120, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487-0120; (205) 348-5350; e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com. The Office of Student Receivables is located in 105 Student Services Center.
Use of Federal Financial Aid to Pay Prior Year Charges
Federal financial aid awarded for the current academic year cannot be used to pay for prior year outstanding balances (balances incurred during or prior to summer) greater than $100.00. These prior balances must be paid by personal payment regardless of the amount of aid anticipated or disbursed for the first enrollment period of the academic year before that enrollment can be confirmed.

When composing an HTML email message, I prefer the Enter key to not skip a line (ie. I don't want "double spacing"). This is the way WYSIWYG word editors behave, and most local email apps as well as Gmail, Yahoo Mail, etc, also behave this way.
Can the Zimbra HTML editor be configured to behave this way too? In other words, can the Enter key generate <div> tags instead of <p> tags?
The following explanation (although about an unrelated HTML editor) has more details:

Summary of discussion, 8/30/2011
Support for the intent of the proposal, but concern about the specific approach. Legislative hearings are not typically named so do not fit well in the parenthetical of category c, iii, with named events like festivals and exhibitions.
Suggest that category f could work, by changing the name of the category to "legal and governmental works of the following types" and including legislative hearings in the list.
- Robare, 8/30
General comments
I don't believe this will work. Typically, the hearing is held before a named body, but the hearing itself is not named. For example, "Strengthening Social Security : what can personal retirement accounts do for low-income workers? : hearing before the Special Committee on Aging, United States Senate, One Hundred Eighth Congress, second session, Washington, DC, June 15, 2004." Following AACR2, this is entered under: United States. Congress. Senate. Special Committee on Aging. Following RDA, apparently this is entered under title, and this proposal does not change that because the hearing is not named. The Australia example in RDA does not illustrate the rule, because the event (the hearing) is not named; the access point given in the example is for the body that is holding the hearing. I have a problem with the statement in the proposal which reads "because they are not legal works." Isn't the definition of "legal" rather narrow if it doesn't include hearings? This is something that to mind my clearly belongs with the other kinds of works in category f. Maybe we should just change the name of that category to "legal and governmental works of the following types" and put hearings there. K. Randall, 8/24/11
I agree that it makes no sense to add legislative hearings to a list of types of named events like festivals and exhibitions, since they are not named events and cannot (in MARC terms) be entered in a 111. And I doubt that was the intention here. If we want to achieve the same end result that we had in AACR2 (entered under corporate body), they will have to be added under one of the other categories here. R.Rendall, 8/25/11
I agree with Kevin and Robert that is doesn't make sense to add hearings where LC wants to put them. I think Kevin's solution is the best: change the name of "f" to "legal and government works of the following types" and add hearings there. Rolla, 9/2/11

text: Home Culture 'Red Tails': Guilt-Trip Cinema George Lucas played the race card in an effective marketing campaign, but was it necessary? By: Jozen Cummings Posted: Jan. 23 2012 2:24 PM 0 Courtesy of Red Tails If Hollywood executives take away anything from this past weekend's opening box office numbers for Red Tails, it is this: A lot of black people went to the movies. Media outlets like Entertainment Weekly are already spinning how George Lucas' $58 million passion project, based on the true story of the African-American World War II fighter pilots known as the Tuskegee Airmen, did far better than anyone thought it would. But don't believe the hype. The campaign leading up to the release of Red Tails in 2,512 theaters nationwide was primarily the work of Lucas, the film's executive producer, who was vocal about the risks he took making the film and the challenges he faced, all because the story and its characters were African American. Lucas played the race card -- he played it well -- but he is also guilty of overplaying the hand with which the race card was dealt. Nobody understands the importance of supporting black film more than black people themselves. I know and bemoan the fact that Tyler Perry and Spike Lee are "all we have," but I still buy a ticket if one of their films is showing, even if I end up sneaking into another movie. I am a huge fan of Salim and Mara Brock Akil, the husband-and-wife team behind the upcoming film Sparkle. Two films I have yet to see but are one and two on my movie priority list: the Steve McQueen-directed indie film Shame and Pariah by Spike Lee protégée Dee Rees. My moviegoing habits are so militant, I'm going to see Man on a Ledge not because of the film's star, Sam Worthington, but because Anthony Mackie is in a supporting role. And doesn't Denzel also have a new movie coming out called Safe House? It looks like Training Day 2, so count me in for that, too. Here's something that may shock George Lucas: Black people love to go see movies. Black people especially like to see movies directed by one of their own, starring one of their own or telling a story about one of their own. Red Tails' $19.1 million opening-weekend receipts attest to this. But black people alone cannot be expected to change the minds of Hollywood executives who think that stories about black people or featuring black people or told by black people are niche. In order for Hollywood suits to believe that black stories, black actors and black filmmakers are important, there need to be more nonblack people buying tickets to see those movies. Do not be fooled by someone like Tyler Perry, who is the highest-paid man in entertainment, according to Forbes. Perry has had to make his money off more than just movies. His empire is self-made, much like that of another filmmaker, Lucas. And yet, with all his influence and moxie, Lucas chose to make his promotional campaign a guilt trip, telling people the reason it is important to see Red Tails is that the entire existence of black Hollywood is hinging on the success of the movie. I should know, because I was one of the people who bought a ticket and saw it this weekend, but I did not need Lucas' pandering in order to do so. In 2007 I bought a ticket to go see Stomp the Yard, a film about two rival step teams at a fictional historically black college. The film brought in $22 million during the opening weekend and opened at No. 1. If the comparison seems like a stretch, maybe a more apt one would be Spike Lee's Miracle at St. Anna, the 2008 World War II movie loosely based on the 92nd Infantry Division, an all black-unit. Opening-weekend box office: $3.5 million. I was there for that, too. Hollywood executives do not understand the universal appeal of black stories. Black stories reflect the culture of humanity, not the culture of a subgroup. Just because the cast is black or the director is black does not mean the movie is for blacks only. The man who made Star Wars and Indiana Jones, two franchises that plenty of black people have seen, should have been screaming this from atop the towering pedestal he's been put on. Instead he went niche. Red Tails did well, but its opening-weekend numbers should have been better. The fact that they are not is the fault not of black people but, rather, of everyone else who failed to see that Red Tails is about more than just black soldiers in World War II. It is an American story about World War II. More Americans should have come out to see it. Instead they went to see Underworld: Awakening, this weekend's No. 1 movie.

Born: 07/09/1956
Birth Place: Concord, California, USA
Born on July 9, 1956 in Concord, CA, Hanks was raised by Amos, a cook and restaurant manager, and Janet, a hospital worker. In 1960, his father took him and his siblings to Reno, NV to start a new life, later divorcing Janet. After his second marriage failed, his father picked up the family and settled in Oakland, CA, where Hanks spent his formative years. Growing up an unhappy and often confused child, Hanks sought stability wherever he could find it. At Skyline High School, he played soccer and ran track, but became a born-again Christian, joining the fundamentalist First Covenant Church of Oakland for a couple of years. Hanks' true salvation, however, came when he discovered acting. With ... Continue Bio >>
