Dear Scorpion,
I've been into Megadeth for over 10 years now and they were actually the first band to influence me to play guitar. For this reason Im curious why Dave chose to leave ESP and start playing Dean Guitars.
'Ello Ben!
Dave Mustaine issued a press release as to why he left ESP a while back, and it went a little something like this. "After two successful years, I have decided to leave ESP guitars. This was a business decision and had nothing to do with the guitars or the manufacturing of the guitars, and I wish the staff of ESP, both in the USA and in Japan and Korea the very best of health and prosperity. Meanwhile, I am taking my Classic Metal V known formerly as a Jackson King V1 or an ESP DV8, and my new guitar design presently known as an Axxion, which was the recipient of the Gold Award from Guitar World Magazine for 2005 for new guitar designs with me. I will also be re-introducing through my new endorsement many special models, including re-issues of my old models from over the span of my career, as well as some retro V shapes, similar to the formerly known Jackson Y2KV or a Gibson Flying V. I will make my announcement and be attending the 2007 NAMM show to meet Megadeth fans and all metal fans, musicians of all styles-especially guitarists."
And as we would find out, lad, this mystery company turned out to be Dean. Of his new relationship with Dean, Mustaine says "The whole process has been surreal. It's been dream-like, but is more real than any dream I've ever had. They understand what a guitarist expects out of his gear, and we share a vision, a loyalty and an understanding of guitars. Working with Dean has been one of the greatest thrills for me as a musician." Keep your eyes pealed for the new VMNT signature model at a Dean dealer near you! See you on the flip side!

Dear Scorpion,
I am curious as to how much communication Dave and the other members of the band have to bands like Dreamtheater, for example on the Gigantour 05' what goes into the selection of the bands? Is Dave friends with the members of the bands or does he just think of ideas to make the most ecclectic show to appeal to a vast audience. And also makes for excellent dvd's of the shows for fans to view.
Thank you for your time,
Barry Yeager
P.S. Looking forward to Megadeth's arrival in Philadelphia for the heaven and hell tour (tix bought and paid for !)
My dearest Yeagermeister,
One of the truly killer things about Gigantour is that Dave Mustaine hand picks every single band on the tour! All were chosen for special reasons based on diversity and musicianship. For example, Dream Theater was asked to be on the maiden voyage of Gigantour because Dave and Mike Portnoy became fast friends and wanted to tour together. Dream Theater recommended Symphony X for G1. Anthrax was an easy choice to finish up the tour, since they were one of the "pillars" of metal. Megadeth toured with Fear Factory back on the Reckoning Day tour, so they were a safe bet. Dave produced the Sanctuary CD "Refuge Denied" back in the day, and two members of Sanctuary went on to form Nevermore. It also helped that Glen and Shawn are Nevermore fans and that James MacDonough toured with them when he played bass for Iced Earth. Bobaflex was brought on as fresh new talent because Justis Mustaine, Dave's son, was a fan of the band. Talk about a lot of work and scrutiny! Your ole' pal the Scorp is willing to bet his bottom dollar that none of the leaders of these other "fests" put that kind of time and effort into picking the bands that bring all those lovely metal flavors to you kiddies! That's all for this week, but keep those question coming in and beware of the cicadas!

Dear ScorpioN,
In the archive files u mention a facelift 4 Vic contest & then at the Heaven & Hell tour I got a closer look at the cover of the new cd United... . Vic has skin? Did I miss the memo or over look something on the website. Is there a story behind Vic having skin? If there is I sure would like it if u would enlighten me. Megadeth rocks. I have been a fan 4 about 16 years & finally saw them live 4 the first time(I know, shame on me) at gigantour. Seeing Dave live, no words 2 describe it. The energy at his shows r so intense.I promise my intention is 2 never miss another 1. Oh & I can't help it if almost every person I set my sights on converting 2 a Megadeth fan is assimilated in the blink of an eye. I open the door & Dave lures them in. I'm going 2 meet up with a band next week, maybe I'll be their new singer. My only issue is all they want 2 do is motley crew covers. By the end of our first phone call they were saying they could most likely play anything I requested. Wish me luck, I'm hoping 2 bring these poor boys into the fold.
Tell(Shewolf Forever)
From Edmonton
Well Tell, I'll tell ya... I had a chance to speak with the creator of the "revamped skinned Vic" John Lorenzi, and here is what he had to say:
"As most everyone here probably already knows, this all started back at DeviantArt. Dave Mustaine had orchestrated their biggest contest ever, with guitars for whoever could come up with a redesign for Vic Rattlehead. They provided a excerpt of the lyrics for "Skull Beneath the Skin" as a guide and inspiration. The essence of that song is pretty much the recipe for building this tormented character. The first piece I entered in the contest was the one most similar to the original design. Then I worked my way backwards in time with the next two designs. The idea behind my version of Vic, or what I wanted to see as the new Vic was to bring him back around to the beginning of his life story. I never had any intension to make a new Vic, but to take him back to when he actually became Vic Rattlehead. I mean, he had to have skin at some point right? That's how it played itself out in my head anyway. Whether or not I conveyed that remains to be seen.
Megadeth was back in the studio with the intent to bring it's sound to it's truest form, some of which was also heading back to it's beginning. It only seemed natural to head in that same direction. The end product for the album art was an amalgam of these pictures and a vision that Dave clearly already had. We communicated the tweaks and changes until he had what he wanted.
There was so much good art going on in the contest, like 3000 entries, it would've been easy to get lost in those numbers. By the end of the contest, I had entered three times, a trilogy, two of which ended in the top 11. Incidentally, for those of you keeping score, I didn't win, the contest anyways. When it was over it had appeared as though I lost twice. As far as my kids were concerned I won. They constantly tell me as they strum the air of their "imaginary" guitars. Collaborating with a music legend I think I won, even though some like to point out that I didn't. The glory alone should last me forever. It was an honor and a priveledge. Thanks Dave.
I'm a Californian, currently stranded in Colorado doing the starving artist thing with my wife and two boys. Right now I'm just waiting for the album like everyone else. I hope everyone enjoys the artwork as much as I enjoyed doing it."
So Tell, it looks like skin is in! Until next time...

Dear ScorpioN,
Hi, I wanted to know if you know what the design on the front of the Cryptic Writings album means. Or is it just some random artwork? Thanks!
Well Drew, the cover was done by renowned album cover designer Hugh Syme. Mr. Syme has done artwork for such notable artists as Aerosmith, Nevermore, Queensryche, and Rush. Dave Mustaine gave the following description of this ancient symbol.
"It's called a veve ... It's a voodoo symbol... It means that you can enter into a premises, that it's safe and there is no poison. It's a warning telling you where you can and can not go. It's also a direction. Most of the hobos were people who practiced voodoo. They would go from building to building whether it was a shanty or it was a shack. They would go in there and they'd find chalk writings on the wall that told them if it was a safe place. It was usually done with a burnt stick... When I first got the artwork back it was littered with voodoo symbols and all kinds of stuff. I told them that it was too heavy. I didn't want anything on there that would give homage to pagan gods and shit like that. I want it to be about the music. As it is, that symbol right there, we don't really know exactly what the combination of everything is. We know pretty much what the breakdown of each symbol is but it's like crossing different kinds of medications. You take two separate medications and they have a different and combined effect. There might be something where those symbols counter another symbol and turn it into something else."
So there we have it mate. No poison, eh? Who needs that!?! Guess you won't be seeing your pal the Scorp in a veve shack anytime soon!

Dear ScorpioN,
I'm one of the many Megadeth fans down under in NZ, wonderful place but sadly lacking in Metal influence and since we are so small we often get over looked when it comes to tours. With the release of the new album is there any chance we will be lucky enough to see Megadeth reach our shores anytime soon? It would make alot of New Zealanders very happy!!!
G'day mate!
While Megadeth would love to play everywhere in the world, the upcoming tour in support of United Abominations is said to be in very select cities only. So they probably won't be hitting NZ anytime in the very near future, but there is always a good chance! The best thing to do to get them to come to your country (and this goes for all of the countries out there that Megadeth doesn't get to as often as you'd like) is to create a buzz about the new album by joining the Street Team at Roadrunner Records and spreading the word about Megadeth to your local concert promoters. Megadeth has always been impressed with the Kiwis, and describes the fans there as "over the top"! Hopefully they will return sooner than later with your help!

Hello scorpion,
i know that Dave's favourite arena is the one from Buenos Aires,Argentina ,and i saw some interviews saying that he loves argentina and stuff...
i just wanted to know if Mustaine also like Chile , cuz' i'm chilean and you know ... Dave is my hero
Santiago, Chile
Dave Mustaine=God Of Metal
'Ello Ben!
Mr. Mustaine indeed loves Chile! He has a very special relationship with Argentina where, incidentally, the new Megadeth live album "That One Night: Live in Buenos Aires" which will be available on CD and DVD on March 6, was taped. But he also loves Chile and its people with all their enthusiasm for Megadeth. He had this to say in "Mustaine Speaks" a while back:
"Well, the Chilean show was fantastic! To all the beautiful people of Chile, I am glad I got to see you all once again. You are fabulous and we love you all."
Now if that doesn't give you warm fuzzies Ben, especially right before Valentine's Day, then you must be made of stone!

Dear ScorpioN,
A few years ago I got into Megadeth beacause of Peace Sells on Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and I got the soundtrack for it. Then I got Greatest Hits, but Peace Sells sounded somehow different than Peace Sells on the GTA soundtrack. Am I crazy or were different versions used for their respective cds?
Dan K
Well Dan, looks like its off to the loony bin with ya. The version of Peace Sells on the GTA: Vice City soundtrack and on Back to the Start are the same. Maybe the version in GTA sounds shorter to you because you get killed in the game and have to start over before you can hear the whole song! Practice makes perfect mate.

Dear ScorpioN,
I had a question about the new album's (United Abominations) cover. I thought that the winner's design of the Deviant Art Redesign Vic Contest would be on the new album cover. To my knowledge, the new Vic is not the deisgn from the contest. So, my question is why?
Adam from Ohio
The Deviant Art Redesign Vic contest never stated anything about the new album cover, or that the new redesigned Vic would be used for anything specific in the future. The contest asked artists to simply give Vic a "facelift", and the top three winners were awarded ESP guitars for their Vic creations. First prize won a LTD AXXION, second prize won a LTD DV8-R, and third won LTD DV200. Quite a group of prizes if you ask me mate.
- 08/21/2006
Dear ScorpioN,
I'm not gonna ask why you keep answering dumb questions about tours and even dumber questions about those questions. But anyway i was curious as to why Dave would let people wearing metallica shirts appear in the "peace sells" video during the "we the people" part where it shows a crowd of fans. Megadeth Rules
Good, I'm glad you didn't ask it because that would just perpetuate more dumb questions about dumber questions. However, I'm still going to address your comment. I answered that "dumb question" because the guy who asked it wouldn't leave well enough alone...so I had to in order to get him to pipe down. You know, a "dumb question" is a matter of opinion too.
With that said, onto your inquiry. I seriously doubt that Dave stood at the door and acted as Fashion Police for the video shoot, and he was once a member of Metallica...so where is the harm in his fans wearing a t-shirt from a band that he was in previously? Really, the fans make more of an issue out of the Megadeth vs. Metallica issue than the band members do. It's been beat to death, and debated ad nauseum. We all clearly have outstanding taste in music, so can't we all just get along?
- 07/17/2006
Dear ScorpioN,
I wouldn't answer those people's questions even if I did know the answer. How many times can the same question be asked, When are they going to TOUR??? They need to research and read the F N MEGA site or BLABBERMOUTH.NET.
Bloody hell, finally someone who agrees with me about all of this sodding whining and bs. Cheers to you mate.

Dear ScorpioN,
When will Megadeth summer concert dates be coming?
I can't wait to see them again!
Please let me know.
Charlotte, NC.
Dear ScorpioN,
I have asked you this question once, but I have not received a response.
Will Megadeth be touring in the states this summer?
I hope so!
Charlotte, NC.
Dear ScorpioN,
Hey when the F are you going to answer my question about Megadeth touring this summer?
You are a real slacker man!
SheWolf used to answer all of our questions, promptly I might add.
Matt Sorbo
North Carolina
Email to the Webmaster from Matt: The Scorpion only answers website questions, usually from teenie boppers that no nothing about the band.(Take a look at the question & answer section.)I have e-mailed the Scorpion 2-3 times trying to find out if Megadeth will be touring the states at some point this year, and haven't gotten an answer back. Shewolf was the greatest! She took additonal time to actually e-mail us fans directly to answer our questions. Who ever you have doing this Scorpion thing, he is a real loser and surely not a plus to the bands website. TY Matt
Well Mr. Sorbo, I guess you can't read, or chose to ignore the following statement that can be found in the disclaimer at the bottom of this very page:
ScorpioN will not reply to all emails, and will not be able to answer every question asked.
With that said, you need to watch your smarmy tongue young man. You're messing with the wrong arachnid. How can you expect me to answer your question, if Megadeth themselves don't even know the answer? I CAN tell you that Megadeth is confirmed to play Metalway Festival in Spain on July 28 in Jerez and July 30 at the Fútbol de Santa Lucía in Gernika. So, with the utmost certainty, I can also tell you that they WON'T be playing anywhere in the U.S. on July 28th or 30th. I DON'T KNOW when the tour dates will be announced, but I can tell you that your best bet is to check here at megadeth.com to find out. They will be posted as soon as they are announced, it's not a conspiracy to keep the information from you, the information just isn't available yet. May I suggest that you sign up at the megadeth.com message boards, that will enable you to stay on top of all things Mega without pestering me all of the time. If you did your research and really "know" so much more about the band than these "teenie boppers", you wouldn't have to ask me such questions in the first place. If you are such a know it all fan, you would already know that Megadeth is currently in the studio recording their next album, which is slated to be released late this year, and that Gigantour will run from September thru October, and that no specific dates have been announced yet, or the line-up of bands. On Megadeth's Official My Space, Dave Mustaine said the following in his blog entry: "Gigantour 2006 starting the second week of September, until Middle of October", so may I also suggest that you take the time to check out that blog entry and more at www.myspace.com/megadeth. There is a plethora of Mega-information out there, you just have to get off yer lazy arse, search it out, and trust that as soon as we have any info concerning tour dates we will promptly post it for all to see.

Dear ScorpioN,
I was wondering as it doesn't say on the site, how you actually join the Megadeth street team, hope you can help!
Megadeth Live!
All you need to do is contact a "Street Team Leader" via their email address, which can be found on the street team page here at megadeth.com. If there isnt a leader in your area, you can always e-mail megadeth.com's esteemed webmaster (email@example.com) about it.
- 06/05/2006
Dear ScorpioN,
what is the name of the song and album that I can find, (portion of the song goes like this). "Hello me its me again" in the video he is in a straight jacket and cell. thanx for your help.
Martin Jarosch
The name of the song is "Sweating Bullets", and it can be found on Megadeth's 1992 release "Countdown to Extinction".
- 05/29/2006
Dear ScorpioN,
Now that Megadeth is signed to Roadrunner Records, A strictly metal label, will the next release return Megadeth back to a speed/thrash metal style again and not as much pop like on KIMB or PSBWB? or will it be another TSHF, where all styles of megadeth are visible like how "Kick the Chair" sounds like it belongs on Rust In Peace and "The Scorpion" sounds like it belongs on Youthanasia
Thanks, Megafan,
Jaisen Wallace
by the way, you're cool enough to be tattoo' d on my back
I have to admit, I'm a bit baffled by your question mate. If you really believe that the word "pop" and the albums "Killing is My Business...and Business is Good!" and "Peace Sells...But Who's Buying?" belong in the same description (much less the same sentence) then we need to have a serious talk. That is VERY disturbing terminology to be used to describe those two albums. Dave Mustaine has said many times that each new album is not going to be "another ________" (fill in the blank with a Megadeth album title), and that it will be unique, new and different than all of their previous work. With that said, I'd say the chances of the new album being "another TSHF" are slim to none. I'd also say that their new record label having anything to do with the style of the album is bullocks...and that it will be Megadeth record that will reflect this day and age, much like all of their past albums have done at the time they were recorded.
In closing, I have a question for you my friend. When you got me tattooed on yer back...did it sting? ;-)~
- 05/22/2006
Dear ScorpioN,
Who does the voice for the cheating girlfriend on the song 1000 Times Goodbye?
Mike Powers
Her name is Heather Keckler, and she was my predecessor in this Q&A section. She worked on megadeth.com for many years as a columnist under different monikers such as "Miss Megadeth" during the Cryptic Writings era, "Catnip" around the time Risk was released, and ultimately she was the "She-Wolf" Q&A columnist that I replaced.
- 05/15/2006
Dear and not lowly ScorpioN,
The song " I know Jack" says:
"I served with Jack Kennedy
I knew Jack Kennedy
Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine
Senator you're no Jack Kennedy"
But who's Jack Kennedy?
Thanks, Pirox.
"I served with Jack Kennedy", "I knew Jack Kennedy", "Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine", and "Senator, you're no Jack Kennedy" were all famous statements made by Democratic Vice-Presidential Candidate Senator Lloyd Bentsen to Republican Vice-Presidential candidate Senator J. Danforth Quayle during the 1988 Vice-Presidential Debate. In these statements, Jack Kennedy was a reference to John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States. In the general election on November 8th 1960, Kennedy beat Republican Richard M. Nixon in a very close race. John F. Kennedy served as President of the United States from 1961 until November 22, 1963 when he was killed by an assassin's bullet in Dallas, Texas. At the age of forty-three, Kennedy was the youngest man elected President. His Inaugural Address offered the memorable injunction: "Ask not what your country can do for you--ask what you can do for your country."

Dear ScorpioN,
I've been a MegadetH fan for a few years now. The first album I ever bought was "Capitol punishement". From the moment I heard the song "Use the man" I loved it.
One thing is on my mind though, what are we hearing in the beggining of the song? (I saw her today...) Is that MegadetH or some other band or perhaps is it a cover from MegadetH?
That question was on my mind for quite a while now...
Help me sleep better, thanks.
What you're hearing as the intro to the song "Use the Man" is a brief snippet of the song "Needles and Pins" by a band called "The Searchers". Needles and Pins was the working title of the album that "Use the Man" first appeared on, which was ultimately titled "Cryptic Writings". Sweet dreams mate.

Dear ScorpioN,
hi, i was wondering if anyone besides dave mustaine lives in arizona? i've lived in arizona ever since i was born (only 13 years ago!) and i don't know any cool famous people that live here (or have in the past) i only know of dave mustaine and kerry king, the guitarist to slayer...thanx!
Phoenix, Arizona
Amanda my dearest, you're smart for being such a young bird. Cheers for being a Megadeth fan at the ripe ol' age of 13. I hate to burst your bubble, but Dave no longer lives in Arizona. A little over a year or so ago he and his family moved to Southern California, which is his birthplace, so are no longer living in the Grand Canyon State. I hear the sodding heat there is unbearable, but I suppose I could handle the desert landscape being a ScorpioN and all. I'm not sure of Mr. Kings place of residence, but I do know that Rob Halford was, or is an Arizona resident, along with Alice Cooper, Stevie Nicks, and David Ellefson.
- 03/06/2006
Dear ScorpioN,
It reads that the lyrics are written by Mustaine/Harris.
Who's Harris?
Harris, is Sean Harris of Diamond Head fame.
- 02/16/2006
Dear ScorpioN,
i dont know why im sending this you never answer my questions but its worth a shot. was the song "in my darkest hour" written by Dave Mustaine for a tribute of Cliff Burton a former guitarist who died in a bus accident?
Never say never my dear.
The song "In My Darkest Hour" was written by Dave Mustaine, bit it is not a "tribute" to Cliff persay. Dave has said that he wrote the music the day he found out that his former Metallica bandmate (bassist) Cliff Burton died in the bus accident which was on September 27, 1986. However, the actual lyrics of "In My Darkest Hour" have nothing to do with Cliff or his passing, they are about something altogether different.
- 02/02/2006
Dear ScorpioN,
I recently heard a song called "The Creed" which sounded very much like Megadeth but I couldn't find it on any Megadeth cd including soundtracks and bonus tracks off of the remasters. Where is it from?
It is from a collaboration that Dave Mustaine did with Lee Ving of FEAR. The album this song can be found on is called The Craving, and originally Mr. Ving did the vocals while Mr. Mustaine took on guitar duties. It was released back in 1996, but was remixed and remastered in 2004 along with 7 Megadeth albums. On the remixed and remastered version Mr. Mustaine re-sung the vocals for each of the MD45 songs, which may have given it more of this "Megadeth" sound that you speak of. Also, on the 2004 version there is a song that is titled "The Creed (Megadeth Demo)", which was previously unreleased.

Dear ScorpioN,
I'd like to know how vince rattlehead came about.
from,droogie jeff
Well my dear Droogie, I'd like to know who this Vince Rattlehead bloke is that you speak of, the only Rattlehead that I have knowledge of is named Vic.
Sorry mate, I'm just arseing with you.
Vic is Megadeth's mascot, and he was created by Dave Mustaine. He is described in the song "The Skull Beneath the Skin", which is on the album Killing is My Business..and Business Is Good.

Dear ScorpioN,
Who does that laugh at the beginning of Lucretia, coz everytime my mates dog hears it she goes absolutely nuts, barking and foaming at the mouth, now we always have to skip the intro to avoid severed limbs.
Its not Marge Simpson is it?
No kind sir, it is not Marge Simpson. Rather, it is a woman named Sandra Rabin, and if my knackered memory serves me correctly I believe she was a secretary at Laffitte Entertainment Division at the time RIP was recorded.
- 10/31/2005
Dear ScorpioN,
I heard that Dave was singing in Metallica instead of James on at least one gig in the bands very early days. A book on Metallica 'Fuel and Fire' confirms that, but I couldn't get hold of any recordings that would make it clear to me.
Thanks for your answer.
The reason why you can't find any recordings to confirm this, is because the book on Metallica is incorrect. Mr. Mustaine has answered this question before, so I will tell it to you straight from the horses mouth. He never sang lead on any Metallica songs, his voice can only be heard on backing vocals.
- 10/17/2005
Dear ScorpioN,
What is the translation for the words in A Tout Le Monde? It sounds like French to me but what do they mean?
It is French, and here is the translation:
A tout le monde (To all the world)
A tous mes amis (To all my friends)
Je vous aime (I love you)
Je dois partir (I have to leave)
- 09/15/2005
Dear ScorpioN,
I read in several interviews that Dave Mustaine is trained in a certain Martial Art, however it never says which Martial Art?
Please let me know!
... and don't sting me!
- SicFaith (SDMF Dutch Chapter Worldwide!)
I won't sting you my friend. To answer your question, Songham Taekwondo and Ukidokan Karate are the two Martial Arts that Dave has trained for. He trained under Sensei Benny "The Jet" Urquidez, and holds black belts in Songham Taekwondo and Ukidokan Karate.

Dear ScorpioN,
I was just wondering who speaks the vocal part on Shadow of Deth. I could not find any reference in the liner notes to who it was. BTW I saw Megadeth at the Riviera in Chi-town last November and it was the best concert I have ever seen!
Well my dear little Rattlehead, it is none other than Mr. Dave Mustaine himself speaking the vocal part on Shadow of Deth.

Dear ScorpioN,
I'm 14, just wondering how the heck do I or other 14 year olds with strict parents get to go see Megadeth?!?!?! I tried everything to go I work, clean, worked in fields,save my own money to go, anything! I even went on my knees and begged! I cant wait tell I'm 18 to see Megadeth!!!!! I know there is no age limits but to my parents I gotta be 18!! Oh lord PLEASE tell me Megadeth will still be around oh GOD PLEASE!!! I tried to convince them that Metal isn't that bad. I tried everything the only thing I didn't try was to sneak out which I SHOULD have done!!!
- Freakin out Metalhead
Well, well, well. Sounds like your parents need a little schooling there young lad. Try this, mention to them that the lead singer of Megadeth has a son that is roughly your age, and his son Justis goes to a lot of Megadeth's concerts. I understand that your parents love you, and don't want any harm done to you...so you could also slyly suggest that one or both of them attend a show with you so they can see for themselves that all is good in the land of Mega. Then next time, maybe they will let you go it alone or with a mate.
PS. If that doesn't work, don't say a word to them about the next show--don't want to raise suspicion my dear--and then sneak out and rattle your goddamn head off at the show. Just think of it this way, if you happen to get caught...the punishment will have been well worth the crime. >:-)~

Dear ScorpioN,
I wanted to know if Dave Mustaine will be receiving payment or royalties from Metallica for appearing in thier movie (Some Kind of Monster)? I am going to buy and watch it, but only for the Mustaine part. It bothers me that i am purchasing a Metallica product, so knowing it benifits Megadeth would make me feel better.
Frank J Gallo
Centereach N.Y.
Dave is not receiving any royalties or payment from SKOM. You can download just his part in the movie from several p2p programs, and not have to pay to purchase the whole DVD. Don't know if you're into downloading and all, but if you don't want to support Metallica that's going to be your best bet mate.
- 06/27/2005
Dear ScorpioN,
I don't know why I'm doing this, you never respond to my letters anyway. But I need some serious help! I noticed that the Gigantour is coming to New Jersey on Wednesday, August 24th. I was so excited that I would once again be able to see my biggest influence, Dave Mustaine thrashing up the stage. Now here's my problem...I just started school and I really can't miss any of it. What do I do?!?!?! Do you skip school and see the REAL God of Metal, Dave Mustaine or do attend school and mourn all summer long because I know I missed an amazing show? Please help me...I need to know what to do!
Jersey Droogie,
This "question" of yours barely deserves an answer...it's no wonder I haven't responded to your other inquiries. There is not even a decision to be made in this situation my dear friend.
What in the hell did you think I'd say?

Traditional knowledge and its protection in the framework of the Access to Genetic Resources: the debate continues
23 December 2011 | News story
Regional Project: Strengthening the Implementation of Access to Genetic Resources and Benefit-Sharing Regimes in Latina America and the Caribbean.
Within the Regional Project Strengthening the Implementation of Access to Genetic Resources and Benefit-Sharing Regimes in Latin America and the Caribbean, IUCN Sur, the Ecuadorian Ministry of the Environment and the Intercultural Laboratory of the Latin American Faculty of Social Sciences (FLACSO) organized a dialogue on traditional knowledge, on 29 November.
Traditional knowledge (TK) is a wide concept which includes knowledge and information, cultural interaction, languages, perspectives and many other aspects, which are generally transmitted orally and between generations. Nowadays, in Ecuador as in many other countries in Latin America, there is a growing social awareness that has motivated the creation of projects and legal instruments for its protection.
Fernando Ortega, professor at San Francisco University, mentioned that the importance of TK is based on cultural identity as well as on the information that was developed in order to achieve a better understanding of nature and society. The expert recognized the efforts made by different countries to protect their TK. He proposed "to look into the past and its knowledge with new instruments that allow us to protect the authenticity of the knowledge, the identity of the authors, their intellectual property, the natural and cultural resource linked to the traditional knowledge; and, finally, to share the traditional knowledge within national and international frameworks".
Andrea Bravo, researcher of FLACSO, talked about the current moment in which voices in favour of original, ancestral and traditional are gaining attention. "The current approach to traditional knowledge is different; there is a debate about its validity and relevance, about the need to include it in development projects, scientific research and public policies."
Both researchers underline the relationship between knowledge and power as an argument to protect TK. Ortega emphasized that "those who developed science and technology also created industry, and that dependence submits us today".
Attending the dialogue dialogue were delegates from the Intellectual Property Right Institution, the National Secretary of Science and Technology, environmental NGOs and several scientific researchers. Wilson Rojas, Access and Benefit Sharing Focal Point of the Ecuadorian Ministry of Environment, closed the event stressing that TK protection is a long and complex process, a challenge for the countries, and a shared duty among the different actors. He said that after several years of debates, there is a new international framework, the Nagoya Protocol on Access to Genetic Resources and the Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits arising from their Utilization, which should be implemented at national level.

|Pewter is a malleable metal alloy, traditionally 85–99% tin, with the remainder consisting of copper and other metals. It has a low melting point and is very easy to cast in molds. It has been used since ancient times for everything from jewelry to table wear and was once called the "poor mans silver". Generally pewter has a grayish/silver semi-dull finish, though this varies depending on the metals combined with the tin and can be colored black or other shades or plated with gold or silver. All our pewter pieces are lead and nickel free. Pewter is generally hypo-allergenic and will not tarnish or react in most conditions. Note it can break or crack if flexed multiple times and rings cannot be re-sized, though interior ring springs or other adjusters might be used.
|Surgical Steel
|Surgical steel or surgical stainless steel is a specific type of stainless steel, used in medical and jewelry applications, made out of several components: chromium, nickel (or titanium) and molybdenum. It is easy to clean and sterilize, strong, and corrosion-resistant. It is often used for pierced jewelry posts and wires as it does not cause allergic reactions other metals might in some individuals.

Excellent thread... Nice to "get real" here in cyberspace as much as it is possible...
I think we have new England covered. I am another Massachusetts native . How can you not be a passionate fan? We were raised on this stuff. Played QB in d1 central Massachusetts, almost at Middlebury but ended up at uvm and played baseball as a walk on switch hitting SS. Loved vt so moved back here in 94 after 10 years or so living in and around Boston. Charlestown for 6years. That was fun. Grab a burger at the 99 and get a busride to the old garden... Neely Bourque, Middleton. Rode my bike around the Charles river loop . Used to jog up the bunker hill monument stairs to get my ski legs in shape.
love golf (8hdcp) play tennis ( 4.0 ? ) hurt my shoulder in a ski crash last year so serve has suffered. Still like to throw the baseball, but not currently playing anything organized.(you can't do everything)
thought it would be cool to have a BDC golf outing somewhere with other posters who are golfers. Who's in on that one? Amazing all the stuff we have in common on this board.
That's impressive. I wish I could get out and golf more but I simply don't have the money being a broke college student. I do, however, take advantage of my dad's membership at a local golf course when I'm home for the summer. I'd say I golf about 12-14 times a year and have a handicap of 18. I want to get down into the single digits eventually but just don't have the time or money right now.
I think the golf outing would be a great idea. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to make it. AGCSBill said he lived in Northern Virginia as well and I mentioned to him we should get together on the green at some point. I always thought it would be pretty cool to meet some of my fellow posters in person.
I am in for the NVA golf event if it happens. I played a ton of golf last year, not so much this year due to the new healthcare law taking up all my time.
If anyone needs help with the new law just shoot me a question. I am one of the few that read the bill and asssit many with the new law.
I have a sister who lives in falls church VA, so a golf trip there is not out of the question.. . I also have family in Massachusetts so maybe that could work also since many of the golfers on here are located around there. More planning needed.
Golfers... Unite...!

This three-day intensive interactive course covers basic training concepts and skills as a foundation to address challenging metadata subjects. Metadata is not a charismatic subject. The course enables the trainer to address metadata in a lively, invigorating, and memorable workshop. The course enables the agency to define metadata training goals, content, and approaches to implement metadata training programs specific to their data community. This course presents: what is training, how to quickly engage the audience in metadata, what are the NBII-FGDC's metadata learning goals and objectives, and why goals and objectives are critical to agency wide training implementation.
Learning styles, training and visual aids along with presentation styles are presented as means to connect with broad workshop audiences. The workshop includes applying audience analysis to develop the workshop content, duration, approach, determine facility requirements, and to assure a successful and meaningful workshop.
The FGDC metadata curriculum is introduced to the workshop participants as subject areas for presentation / exercise development areas. Participants apply their newly acquired trainer skills to develop a 20-minute metadata presentation, which includes an interactive exercise, on a metadata concept, goal, or objective. The instructors and participants critique the presentation, the presenter, and the learning exercise.
With the information and exercises provided and skills developed from this workshop the participants will be able to:
- Implement metadata training programs to address data issues specific to their agencies and data partners.
- Build a metadata training network to support metadata implementation.
- Develop and present an interactive, energized, and memorable metadata workshop.
- Construct a workshop around the participant's expectations and learning styles to make the metadata content stick.
- Develop lesson plans and training modules and exercises for reuse by other trainers and contributing to NBII and FGDC's metadata training resources. • Discover training tips and methods from experienced metadata creators and trainers to increase metadata creator ability.

American kids are often conditioned to think they don't like fruit and vegetables, so they eat far less of these nutritional power foods than their growing bodies need. Of course, the research team behind the U.S. Food Dudes program at Utah State University prefers the term "incentives," but whatever you want to call it, one thing is clear - kids in the program are eating more fruit and vegetables.
"Kids already know that fruit and vegetables are good, but it's not that simple," says Greg Madden, associate professor at USU's Department of Psychology. "They are going to make impulsive decisions and won't think about the long-term consequences of eating Cheetos every day."
The program, first developed by psychologists in Wales and now in place at six schools in Cache Valley, banks on a three-step system to encourage children to eat more fruit and vegetables at both school and home. Last year, Madden and the research team at USU were the first to adopt Food Dudes in the United States, kicking it off at the on-campus Edith Bowen Elementary School, which doubles as a laboratory for such programs. By the end of the four-mount program, kids were eating 40 percent more fruits and vegetables.
"It was still about half of what's needed," says Madden, who worked alongside nutrition professor Heidi Wengreen and dietician Sheryl Aguilar. "But it does increase the probability that they'll experiment with new foods."
Step one of the program banks on kids' love of superheroes with a video featuring the Food Dudes, who get their powers from - you guessed it - fruit and veggies, which General Junk and his bad-food minions try to steal. Researchers will also document how many fruits and vegetables each child is consuming.
During step two, Madden says, kids are given small tasting portions of several fruits and vegetables and asked to simply taste and swallow each option. That's when the rewards - step three - kick in.
"If they ate their fruit, they get a little red cherry stamp, and if they ate their vegetable, they get a carrot stamp," he explains. "If they ate both, they get a small prize, like a pencil case or stickers."
Over the course of the program, the rewards become less frequent and are eventually phased out, as kids start to actually enjoy eating certain fruits and vegetables.
And that, he says, is a reward in itself.
"Our best approach to dealing with obesity is to keep kids from becoming obese in the first place," says Madden, who would like to expand the program across the state. "The eating habits kids create when they are young last for a lifetime."

Thursday Afternoon News, October 4
Trial Delayed For Jandreau
(Le Mars) -- The trial date for Matthew Jandreau has been extended. The new trial date is scheduled to start on November 13th. Jandreau is accused of kidnapping, burglary, and theft resulting from incidents that occurred in Le Mars last March. His trial was to have started on October 16. During a pre-trial hearing, Jandreau's defense attorney Mike Williams asked for the extension stating he is waiting for the results of a psychological evaluation. The court noted the matter has been continued several times over several months at the defendant's request to either secure an expert, obtain funds for an expert, to conduct an evaluation, or to obtain the results of the evaluation.

online and pre-register to get their name and address entered in the data bank, and then
obtain a bar-code that makes it easier, and more efficient for the student on College Night.
Listen to
Addison says the event is well attended by both students and parents. Both guidance counselors say the students and parents come prepared with several questions.
Listen to

More Cats Are Removed From Sioux City Home
(Sioux City) -- Animal rescue workers continue to bring more starving cats out of a Sioux City home.
That's as charges have been filed against the owner of the home of the home where over 50 starving or dead cats were found Monday evening. Sioux City Police assisted animal control workers with a search warrant Monday at 1818 Grandview Blvd. and removed 46 cats and 8 carcasses from the home. Cindy Rarrat of the Sioux City Animal Adoption and Rescue Center says another 13 live cats have been found, bringing the total to 59...and there's still more in the house.
Listen to
56 year old Mark Lanning has been charged with 14 counts of animal neglect. Neighbors says no one had lived at the home for the past couple of months. Rarrat says conditions there were unfit for humans or animals. She says workers are having difficulty determining the number of dead cats inside.
Listen to
Rarrat says the recovered cats are being cared for, but the large number is putting a strain on the animal shelter.
Listen to
She says a court disposition hearing will be held soon to hopefully allow the shelter to adopt out the cats when they are healthy.
UI President's Asian Trip Cost$128,000
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - A nine-day Asian trip led by University of Iowa President Sally Mason cost about $128,000.
The Iowa City Press-Citizen says expense reports from the July tour were provided to the newspaper.
The expenses are being paid by the University of Iowa Foundation.
The 18-person delegation included deans, professors, UI Foundation and Alumni Association officials, and Mason's husband, Ken Mason, a lecturer in biology.
The trip was designed for the delegation to meet with donors and alumni as part of an effort to increase the university's visibility in China. The itinerary included stops in Hong Kong, Taipei,
Shanghai and Beijing.
A university spokesman said in May that more than 1,700 students from China were studying at the Iowa City school.
Judge Says No Wrong Doing When UI Fired Its Lawyer
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - A judge says University of Iowa President Sally Mason did not violate the rights of the school's top lawyer when she fired him and criticized his performance in 2008.
U.S. District Judge Robert Pratt on Wednesday threw out former general counsel Marc Mills' claims that he was unfairly fired after an independent investigation incorrectly blamed him for mishandling
a high-profile sexual assault case.
Pratt says Mason could fire Mills because he was an at-will employee. He says Mason also notified Mills of the reason for his pending firing and considered his rebuttal before he was terminated, which satisfied his due process rights.
University spokesman Tom Moore said the school is pleased.
Pratt will also rule soon on Mills' remaining claims against a St. Louis law firm that conducted the investigation.
Former Minister Charged With Sexual Assault
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) - A former minister convicted of three sexual assault charges in Council Bluffs will be resentenced on one of them, now that the Iowa Appeals Court has lowered the severity
of one of his crimes.
57-year-old Efrain Umana had been convicted in January 2011 of second-degree sexual abuse, third-degree sexual abuse and assault with intent to commit sexual abuse. Umana, who had led churches in Iowa and Nebraska, was given 35 years in prison.
He appealed the convictions, and in its ruling issued Wednesday the Appeals Court said prosecutors didn't present enough evidence of specific intent to commit sexual abuse. The court returned the
case to district court for resentencing on a reduced assault charge.
Bondurant Couple Latest Powerball Winners
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Iowa Lottery officials say a central Iowa couple has won a $202 million Powerball jackpot drawn last month at a suburban Des Moines convenience store.
Mary and Brian Lohse came forward to claim the prize Thursday in Des Moines. She's a 42-year-old medical assistant at a pediatric clinic and he's a 43-year-old attorney with EMC Insurance.
The winning ticket was the only one to match all six numbers in the Sept. 26 Powerball drawing.
The jackpot was the second largest won in Iowa. It ranks 28th among U.S. lottery jackpots
Mary Lohse says she bought the ticket on the day of the drawing at a convenience store-gas station in Bondurant as she was filling up her car.

I've looked for some manual named "web users guide" or something that is referenced several places, but have not been able to locate it, either on this site or in the docs directory of the zimbra download. After scanning several messages, I assume that a user will log in to https://server/zimbra/mail. If so, I have a wee problem.
Currently, my dns (local) has an entry for toad.mydomain.com. I'm building this box for a client, so it thinks it is toad.clientdomain.com.
I try going to it by IP address (https://10.111.111.254/zimbra/mail) but no joy. I'm not even sure I'm using the correct address, but it seems to be. Does the server have to be accessed by domain name? Or can it be accessed via IP.
Also, where is the user documentation?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The 2012 ACM Workshop on Artificial Intelligence and Security was co-located with CCS - the premier computer security conference - October 19, 2012, in Raleigh, NC USA. As the 5th workshop in the series, AISEC 2012 called for papers on topics related to both AI/learning and security/privacy.
The AISec workshop series complements mainstream venues in security and AI in several ways. While much research in the security and privacy community involves machine learning, the discussion of appropriate application of AI is often cut short or omitted as a detail; it is rare to find new learning algorithms being proposed for previously identified problems in mainstream venues as their focus is (rightly) on new issues in security; proposed adaptive defenses are not always evaluated against an active adversary but rather a fixed dataset gathered before the learning algorithm is deployed; privacy-preserving learning is a rich topic explored in the theory, learning and databases communities but has had less exposure in security; finally in the other direction, security/privacy papers more appropriate for a machine learning venue, or authored by learning researchers, do not always reach a security audience.
AISec serves as the primary meeting place for diverse researchers in security, privacy, AI and machine learning, and as a venue to develop the fundamental theory and practical applications supporting the use of machine learning for security and privacy. The needs of this burgeoning community who are especially focused on (among other topics) learning in game-theoretic adversarial environments, privacy-preserving learning, or use of sophisticated new learning algorithms in security is not met elsewhere.
Suggested emphasis for 2012. In the past year there has been a surge in the use of Big Data analytics for security. Machine learning, data mining, and other artificial intelligence technologies will play a key role in extracting knowledge, situational awareness, and security intelligence from Big Data, and the establishment of Security Information and Event Management systems. Startups like Click Security, Splunk, IPTrust and established organizations like Q1Labs (now IBM) are already big players in this field, which is poised to continue growing significantly in the coming years.

The global spend on health and social programs is $7.7 trillion. These expenditures are driven, in part, by the fragmented approach typically used to manage citizen services. Leaders around the world sense that for that level of spend, the outcomes could be better. IBM is helping to make smarter social programs a reality. Analytics and better information sharing can improve delivery of services and allow governments to better support the social and economic potential of their populations.
Alameda County, California improved its ability to respond to clients. With IBM's help, the County developed a dashboard that offers a real-time understanding of case and program status. For the first time, Alameda has a solid understanding of each individual's situation. This helps the County ensure that clients are well served, that they are not over-served, and even enables caseworkers to identify programs that might work better for participants.
New technology supports a shift from data capture and reporting to detecting patterns and deriving new insight. With this shift, it is possible to rethink how benefits and services are delivered. Instead of waiting for an incident to happen, governments can predict those who are vulnerable, invest in preventive services, and avoid the costs of rehabilitation or remediation. Other analytics can detect or predict fraud, waste, and abuse. Citizen outcomes can be improved and program funding spent more effectively.

Like a lot of people, I was very impressed by Steve Jobs' 2005 commencement speech to the graduates of Stanford university when I listened to it for the first time a few days ago on YouTube. However, on reflection, I realised that it was inspiration only for an elite, rather than for society as a whole, and thus key to understanding what's fundamentally wrong with our society.
After being pushed out of his own company, Jobs says, ". . . the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. . . Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. . . like any great relationship, it just gets better and… Read more

Has anyone successfully deployed the Weather Zimlet?
I've deployed it. I've added *.api.wunderground.com to the zimbraProxyAllowedDomains attribute for all the COS.
When I go to use it in the WebUI though I get the REST API error.
I'm wondering if maybe the Wunderground API Key that's in the .js file is either invalid.....or doesn't allow more than X number of uses during a day....or something. Should each site generate it's own API key or should the default one work? There was a passing mention of the API key in the YouTube demo of the Zimlet....but not much detail.

How Turquoise Beads Are Made
Beads were the first form of Jewelry that was found with the use of Turquoise. Archeologists in many parts of the world have uncovered Turquoise Beads dating back over 7,000 years. Bead making has continued in many cultures since those pre-historic times. Native American Indians of the Southwestern United States have made Turquoise Beads for well over a thousand years. Today, Turquoise Beads are more popular than ever and are made in many parts of the world. If you would like to see how Turquoise Beads are made, we invite you to check out a step by step presentation by Daniel Lopaki. Check out the Turquoise Bead Making Story here; http://www.durangosilver.com/turquoise-bead-info.htm#CuttingBeads The Santo Domingo Native American Indians are noted as being some of the most prolific Turquoise Bead Makers of the American Southwest – Check out our story on Santa Domingo Bead makers

I'd love a poster of Nivmagus Elemental, really cool art and a really fun card (definitely feels like Izzet)

"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery, today is a gift, that's why it's called the present."
Me? I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid.
I will be posting a deck probably later on today or tomorrow sometime.
so cards that will have a shot at slotting into my cube from rtr (underlined are biggest maybes): auger spree, axebane guardian (might try to make a defender theme in it too because it's the best), azorius arrester, azorius guildgate (and the rest of the cycle), centaur healer, chemister's trick, courser's accord, dead reveler, doorkeeper (dependent on defender tribal), dramatic rescue, electrickery, gatecreeper vine, goblin electromancer, gore-house chainwalker, grisly salvage, inaction injunction, rakdos shred-freak, splatter thug, stab wound, sundering growth, swift justice (one of the best combat tricks i've ever seen but still), transguild promenade, azorius charm, azorius justiciar, azorius keyrune (and the rest of the cycle), blistercoil weird, bloodfray giant, brushstrider, call of the conclave, dreg mangler, dryad militant, faerie imposter, fencing ace, golgari charm, guttersnipe, hellhole flailer, hover barrier (dependent on defender tribal), izzet charm, judge's familiar, korozda guildmage, lyev skyknight, new prahv guildmage, phantom general, rakdos cackler, rakdos ragemutt, rix maadi guildmage, rogue's passage, savage surge, selesnya charm, skymark roc, slime molding, slitherhead, slum reaper, street spasm, thrill-kill assassin, treasured find, ultimate price, vitu-ghazi guildmage.
so basically, should be a great limited format.

What about Vreska, the Seeker and did anybody go to the RTR pre-release. I was going to I had to go to my high-schools football game (marching band).
I did a lot of prerelease play. The place by me did a Sat midnight, a 2pm Saturday, and a 6pm Saturday Regular/2HG. I did all three as Selesnya, Rakdos, and Azorius. It was a lot of fun. Rakdos and Azorius are the best, hands down. Rakdos was just...insanely fun. Azorius is too, if you're a good control player.
Pulled some good $ cards (Armada Wurm, Mizzium Mortars, Desecration Demon, Dreadbore, Detention Sphere, Isperia, Loxodon Smiter, Deathrite Shaman, Nivmagus Elemental, Chromatic Lantern, Vraska, 2x Lotleth Troll, Hallowed Fountain, Steam Vents, Overgrown Tomb, Abrupt Decay). And ended up doing a lot of trading, for a Jace and a Vraska (which was before I opened mine).
Definitely the best and coolest prerelease I ever went to. Can't wait for the rest of my RtR stuff to come in. This is such a great set.
I was sad when I was told my guild (Boros) wasn't going to be in the 1st set. and I plan on going to the next sets prerelease.
Thinking of building a Legacy deck. Don't know what to build around though. Any ideas?

One question, cube???????
I've only played in two cubes before. I wonder if there's some way to run one via Cockatrice or something.
I went to one prerelease event. Chose Golgari, pulled non-Golgari rares except 2x Jarad's Orders for some reason. (Everyone who was there that I talked to pulled the rare they got in their guild pack in a "normal" pack in their pool.) I did, however, pull a Jace and a Dreadbore. There was no way I wasn't running Dreadbore, of course, so thankfully I pulled two Gatecreepers and a Rakdos Guildgate to actually enable that. Went 2-2 despite meh pulls. Pretty fun format nonetheless.
although bombs are more relevant in sealed than draft you can still do well without them. i know i went reasonably well at the dark ascension prerelease, opened utter crap (best rare was sever the bloodline by a mile, next best was ****ing increasing ambition i mean jesus) but i had a great w/b tempo build.
as for cubing on cockatrice, i'll have to look into that. sadly my cube doesn't get a lot of attention and is incomplete, but being able to use it online would be good for potential changes and other junk. there is always cube sealed i suppose?
I play MTG. I'm kinda new at it, but it's fun.
I was introduced to MTG in mid-July. I've been pretty fond of my cards, and my first and only played deck consists of Black and White creatures/spells.

Wow Falcario plays MTG. Colloid.
What are you guys' favorite deck?
Name: Vice
Adopt one yourself! @Pokémon Orphanage
Legacy-Mono-Green Elves
Standard-R/W Humans/Angels
Commander-5 color Slivers.
Funny you should mention this thread, I've been playing Magic: The Gathering since Onslaught back in 2002 which was back when I was still playing Yu-Gi-Oh! at the time of it's peak when it was still a good TCG. Because of the stagnant economy my locals for Magic isn't what it used to be, also the fact that MMORPG's are taking away alot of Magic's playerbase especially World of Warcraft doesn't help either. What's even worse is that some people are wanting Nintendo to start doing an official MMORPG for Pokemon but it would kill the video game franchise along with the TCG.
First decks I played in Magic? First it was Mono Red Goblins and B/U Psychatog then I built other decks that were way more fun. I did pretty well in group games playing U/W Storm Herd and Turboland Combo and this was way before EDH/Commander was invented before the game's power creep got too out of hand. Alot of times I would dominate with Mono Green Elves but eventually I got tired of playing them cause it was too annoying and broken. I'm almost undefeated with my current Casual deck U/R Splinter Twin Exarch Combo with my only losses being against W/R Snowglobe and Slivers.
I have currently 2 EDH/Commander decks, one of which revolves around a really broken combo that goes off on Turn 5 or 6 with Arcum Dagsson as my General. The other isn't nearly as broken with Uril, the Miststalker but it's a one trick pony that can beat face in multiplayer almost constantly with a couple of combo cards. Sad part is aside from a few friends of mine not very many people at my card store play EDH as much anymore cause it's become almost as expensive of a format as Legacy is and with the change in store hours, high gas prices, and low amount of tables, it makes it hard for the friends that I had that used to come up and play, plus the crappy economy of course. -___-

I just built some no-rare EDHs with Riku and Kresh as commanders for my friends who want to learn MTG. I'm wondering whether they'd make nice gifts
My LGS is very into EDH, and RTR is all the rage (we're even doing the RTR league, which is really fun, I love sealed).

I'm going to try to join my local shops RTR League next time I can get to it. (High school is a pain).
I wish any shops in a semi-local area did league stuff. Then again, the closest shop to me is 45 minutes away. I'm currently building a Niv-Mizzet EDH -- which a lot of people do, yes.
Figured I would go out of my comfort zone. So I made a Blue/Green deck. I plan to test tomorrow against a friend from school.
Next time I go to a comic book store, I'm getting a bunch of Rakdos cards and making a Rakdos/Dragon deck. I got Utvara Hellkite and I'm raring to make a Dragon deck, but unfortunately don't have enough of them so Rakdos will have to do.

I've been thinking of doing the same thing. With stuff like Balefire Dragon,Moonveil Dragon, Utvara Hellkite, and Niv-Mizzet at the top end. The middle with Archwing Dragon, Furnace Whelp, Thundermaw Hellkite and Hypersonic Dragon, and the early game with Dragon Hatchling and MAYBE Slumbering Dragon.
It wouldn't be a very serious deck, but it'd be a lot of fun for some casual, non-competitive games.

Rifle's CJ. Vondette is on a roll and hard on the rodeo trail.
The end of June, the Fourth of July holiday, and most of the rest of the month are known throughout the rodeo world as "Cowboy Christmas."
You could say Vondette got her fair share of gifts.
Steamboat Springs hosts a weekly Professional Rodeo Cowboy's Association rodeo every Friday and Saturday night throughout the summer.
The July 27-28 champion was Vondette, aboard her AQHA Horse of the Year, Cache A Mount, with a time of 17.72, and paycheck of $782.
On July 20-21, Vondette earned a check for a fourth place finish with a time of 17.91, also in Steamboat Springs.
To finish out the month of June, on June 22-23, Vondette placed eighth in Steamboat Springs with her run of 18.24.
In Rock Springs, Wyo., on July 26-28, Vondette finished second in the Red Desert Classic PRCA Rodeo's barrel race with an impressive 17.42 for a $1,245 paycheck.
July 12 saw Vondette back on the Western Slope of Colorado, collecting a paycheck for 10th place in the Gunnison Cattlemen's Days PRCA Rodeo barrel race.
Estes Park's Rooftop PRCA Rodeo also treated Vondette to a check on July 10-15, once again ranking her among the top 10 competitors.
Lehi's (Utah) annual Roundup Rodeo saw Vondette take a victory lap for the fastest run of the performance. Competing before a standing room only crowd, Vondette grabbed a $592 paycheck for a sixth place finish overall.
The Colorado Pro Rodeo Association gave Vondette its share of money as well, with the 21-year-old picking up a check for fourth place in Westcliffe on Sunday, July 1.
All told, Vondette competed in seven rodeos, as well as the PRCA rodeos at the Greeley Independence Stampede; Cheyenne Frontier Days; the Dinosaur Roundup Rodeo in Vernal, Utah; and Evergreen, Grover, Elizabeth and Eagle in Colorado for a total of 14 rodeos in about three weeks.
The Colorado and Wyoming paychecks will move Vondette up in the Mountain States PRCA Circuit Standings. The Utah rodeos will improve her world ranking as well. Currently, she is among the top 20 rookie barrel racers in the world and the top 200 in the PRCA standings worldwide.

I am having SMTP authentication issues in Thunderbird. I have TLS auth set in the Outgoing Mail Server on my client but still seem to have issues when sending from an external client. Sending via the web interface is working fine.
Looking at the following command output:
[zimbra@mail etc]$ zmprov gs mail.mydomain.com | grep Auth
zimbraMtaAuthEnabled: TRUE
zimbraMtaAuthHost: mail.mydomain.com
zimbraMtaAuthURL: http://mail.mydomain.com:80/service/soap/
zimbraMtaTlsAuthOnly: TRUE
I see that the zimbraMtaAuthURL is wrong (I think) since I have changed the default port for http auth requests to 8080 and not 80.
I also have the mixed mode attribute set:
[zimbra@mail etc]$ zmprov gs mail.mydomain.com | grep Mode
zimbraMailMode: mixed
The only place I have seen that references zimbraMtaAuthURL is in saslauthd.conf. But it seems to merely reference the attribute and not be setting the attribute.
Is there a cli command to change this zimbraMtaAuthURL?


text: By Shari FriedelTribune Staff Austin Thelander, 2013 graduating senior, is headed to State Golf as a result of the skill he displayed during the C-5 District meet held at Kearney Catholic's Meadowlark Hills course on Monday. Results of the day's meet were not received by press time and will appear next week. The Plainsmen took part in two meets leading up to districts, one in Sutherland on May 7; the other on May 9 in Ogallala.Ogallala Invite The Plainsmen experienced their toughest competition of the season at the Ogallala Invite on May 9, experiencing difficulty putting together a string of good holes, said Coach Troy Kemling. Perkins County placed 10th with a score of 376. McCook took top honors with a score of 309, while Scottsbluff came in a close second with 312. Other competing teams were Sidney third, 329; Cozad fourth, 350; Alliance fifth,355; Chadron sixth, 361; Gering seventh, 361; Ogallala eighth, 362; Chase County ninth, 365; Gothenburg 11th, 395; Ogallala JV 12th, 411; Hershey 13th, 435; Kimball 14th, no score. "It might have been a little pre-graduation let down with focus on the weekend," said Kemling. "Overall, we are not alarmed, as these scores are not indicative of the quality of play we have been outputting at practice." Kemling said Chase Miyamoto played very much up to his own expectations. "This was his first time on the entire 18 holes at Westwind and he handled it well, playing within himself," said Kemling. "Actually, Chase was a last minute substitution due to sickness and he was mentally ready to go." Kemling said a couple of the players were not feeling 100 percent that day and was hopeful that some rest over the weekend would prepare them for districts. "Valentine looks to be the easy favorite with several teams challenging for the next two qualifying spots," he said. "I know the boys will put forth their best on Monday" [the day of districts]. Individual scores: A. Thelander 43 48 91, Blake Poppe 51 53 104, Colton White 51 45 96, Jacob Sexson 46 51 97, Chase Miyamoto 46 46 92.Sutherland Invite Plainsmen golfers continued their streak of successful and consistent play by taking top honors at the Sutherland Invite held at the Oregon Trail golf course on May 7. With a team score of 335, the Plainsmen finished ahead of other participating teams North Platte, second place, 350; Hershey third, 404; Garden County fourth, 411; Creek Valley fifth, 418 and Sutherland sixth, 426. Five Plainsmen managed places in the top ten: Cole Whalen finished second, scoring 81 with 10 pars on the day and only one double bogie; Austin Thelander was third with a score of 84; Colton White secured the fourth place position with a playoff; Blake Poppe was seventh with 85 and Chase Miyamoto finished in ninth place with 88. "We had a great day!" said Coach Troy Kemling. "The key for us today was limiting the extra strokes—throwaway shots. The boys did well to limit that today to a minimum." "I was pleased with the efforts of each today," said Kemling. "I thought Cole played exceptionally well with very steady golf." Although disappointed with his putting game, Austin Thelander, who finished second, hit the ball well from tee to green. "Colton [White] and Blake [Poppe] seem to be our twins this year," said Kemling. The two consistently score within a few points of each other, if not the exact same score. Their scores of 85 are personal lows for each of them. "Our scores are getting down just when we need them to be," Kemling added. Perkins County's final participant was senior Jacob Sexson, who struggled on the first nine holes, but recovered nicely on the back nine, scoring 42 for a total of 97.
