After installing the MongoDB, on the server-side, I attempted to configure my client which, resides on a CentOS 5.6 OS using the C++ driver code, from the link below:
The install went well ! I worked through the tutorials with no problems but, at this point, I need to build this in with my group's build process. When I attempt to compile, I receive the following error:
/usr/local/include/mongo/base/error_codes.h:36: error: expected identifier before numeric constant
/usr/local/include/mongo/base/error_codes.h:36: error: expected '}' before numeric constant
At this point, I said to myself there must be another #define that is colliding with this code. So, I ran the
g++ ... -E command and found that, in
/usr/include/X11/X.h, there is a
#define BadValue.
This seems weird to me because I would not expect this to happen if the code was enclosed in some namespace which
error_codes.h is enclosed in the
mongo namespace. So, I searched my entire filesystem looking for something like
using namespace mongo thinking that the global namespace was polluted but, this is not the case. I do not see any instances of this occurring and I am wondering - because both of these are third-party - how to resolve.

text: My girlfriend's butt gets very sore after riding only a few miles on our co-motion tandem with a co-motion female saddle. She has a very small and unpadded butt. Any suggestions for a saddle that would be more comfortable on her rear? I don't want to start going out and buying a lot of different saddles for her to try. She can't ride more than 10 or 15 miles without a lot of pain and that has cut down on our ability to go on a lot of group tandem rides.

Lauderdale County supervisors plan to vote on issuing another burn ban at their next meeting on Monday. The request was made Thursday by the Mississippi Forestry Commission.
Officials say the lack of rain over the last several weeks has compounded an already dry situation.
"We want to go ahead and get it implemented," said Greg Chatham of the Mississippi Forestry Commission. "So instead of waiting for something to blow up, we can try to prevent it from happening."
The Meridian Fire Department decided last week to ban outdoor burning. It will not issue any more burn permits until the area gets significant rainfall.

You can't let a punk like Obama p—s you off.
Hysteria \Hys*te"ri*a\, n. [NL.: cf. F. hyst['e]rie. See Hysteric.] (Med.) A nervous affection, occurring almost exclusively in women, in which the emotional and reflex excitability is exaggerated, and the will power correspondingly diminished, so that the patient loses control over the emotions, becomes the victim of imaginary sensations, and often falls into paroxism or fits. [1913 Webster] Note: The chief symptoms are convulsive, tossing movements of the limbs and head, uncontrollable crying and laughing, and a choking sensation as if a ball were lodged in the throat. The affection presents the most varied symptoms, often simulating those of the gravest diseases, but generally curable by mental treatment alone. Hysteric
This paper examines the growth of government during this century as a result of giving women the right to vote. Using cross-sectional time-series data for 1870 to 1940, we examine state government expenditures and revenue as well as voting by U.S. House and Senate state delegations and the passage of a wide range of different state laws. Suffrage coincided with immediate increases in state government expenditures and revenue and more liberal voting patterns for federal representatives, and these effects continued growing over time as more women took advantage of the franchise. Contrary to many recent suggestions, the gender gap is not something that has arisen since the 1970s, and it helps explain why American government started growing when it did.
This BM too will pass......
We are so screwed.
Americans 'Snapping' by the Millions...
A relationship with Christ is your only salvation.
"His goal to make whites pay for all of his perceived ills will lower the entire country to the lowest common denominator. We are so screwed."
Remember all those who who made it possible. Remember well.
Only the weak ones.
looks like I picked the right time to start sniffing glue
Obama is a very evil person, and he has a lot of evil people working for him.
Police perform house-to-house raids in Watertown MA ripping innocent families from their homes. This definitely isn't the kind of America that the Founders had in mind. Perhaps the terrorists are to be feared less than the Feds.
But where is Congress?
God I hate musicals.
Yeah people normally sing and dance all over the sidewalk.
All I could think of when I saw those legions of Massholes applauding the new Gestapo was this:
Well no kidding? Is this breaking news?
The government looted social security, spent the American treasure on compassionate wars and reckless foreign policies, they made American citizenship all but pointless, our borders are and endless conga-line of people who spit on our laws/rules, they imported hundreds of thousands of Muslims and government's desire to control, tax, regulate and create endless new laws........Well..
Lets just say this isn't your parents America anymore.
I don't think 'bama thinks of it that way. Your typical Chicago street punk USES other people to make money. That's what he is. They are usually quite sociopathic which means they don't particularly care about anything at all.
Well, before gang fights in New York, certainly.
"When ya a Jet ya a Jet all da way
From yer first cigarette to ya last dyin' day...'
And to think the little bitch that said that pals around with ilk leftists and has not two brain cells to rub together...
You might be intersted in this WND article. Roy Masters is featured, starting about aquarter of the way down.
"Cure stress
Be Still and Know was developed by Roy Masters, who at 85 is the patriarch of stress experts, having taught this method since 1960 to millions, his fans including everyone from movie star John Wayne to Internet journalist Matt Drudge. He also hosts talk radios longest-running counseling show, Advice Line, on Talk Radio Network. The author of 18 books, Masters was featured on the Sean Hannity Show to discuss his newest book, Hypnotic States of Americans.
I know that his disastrous economic policies are causing a lot of people to take their own lives. I personally know of six people under the age of 45 who committed suicide over the past 2 years. I've never seen it so bad before. It's a shame that so many people feel so hopeless that they take their own lives.
We have a lot of post abortive women. BO is a parasite taking advantage of a sick situation.
Get rid of abortion.
"His goal to make whites pay for all of his perceived ills will lower the entire country to the lowest common denominator."
He has reduced many whites (and others) to the state of the permanent urban underclass; this just seemed to encourage many to vote for him again. Dey gettin' paid!
It's my duty as a free man to survive this SOB and prosper.
"Why So Serious ?"
The media pushes chaos news items. Whether it is doomsday weather updates, globalist warming, shark attacks, pitbull attacks, "random hate crimes", or serial killer profiles on cable and torture porn at the movie theaters, the media LIKES chaos.
"This definitely isn't the kind of America that the founders had in mind."
The Founders took up arms against a king who behaved this way. Today's Massachusetts citizens meekly accepted searches without warrants and lockdowns in their homes (incarceration without due process of law).
Will Mr. John Adams, Mr. Samuel Adams, and Mr. Paul Revere please pick up the phone?
"Mmmmm! Goooood cracker!"
If she EVER gonna stop?!! I can't break away!
If I look at that much longer, I'm gonna snap.
Will Congress please pick up the phone!!
You're only screwed if you bow down to this oppression.
Buck up or stay in the truck.
Could this be the basis for the 'Serenity Now' mantra that was used as an on-going mocking joke in Seinfeld.
NOW it'll be stuck in my head again for a while.
He sure is!
It seems a few folks on FR are mesmerized by him.
Reminds me of Lyndon LaRouche...
No; the 'shame' is that we have LEGALIZED that taking of an innocent life by their - SPIT! - 'mothers'.

Driver blames another for Route 2 crash
PLAINFIELD A Barre man who crashed Saturday on Route 2 said he was avoiding a head-on collision, according to Vermont State Police.
State police say they responded to the crash near Route 14 and found Collin Howard, 20. Howard told state police an oncoming vehicle was driving in his lane and that he swerved into the guard rail to avoid it. Howards vehicle then traveled across both lanes of travel and struck the rock fence that bordered the westbound shoulder.
State police say there was no evidence of a second vehicle and that Howards 1999 Jeep Cherokee was totaled. Howard suffered non-incapacitating injuries to his back, state police say.MORE IN This Just InWESTMINSTER Vermont State Police say a passenger has died in an off-road vehicle crash in...

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Carlos Ramirez has owned some classic cars, like a '57 Thunderbird or a '34 Ford Coupe with a rumble seat, but his current obsession might be his favorite.
"I wouldn't accept a Ferrari if somebody said, 'Let's trade,' " Ramirez said.
His pride and joy, imported from Europe to Mexico and now at his Campbell, Calif., home, is a Smart Fortwo. The tiny two-seater goes on sale in the U.S. early next year.
Praise comes from international travelers who have seen or driven the miniature cars — two fit in an average parking space. They have been on sale in Europe since 1998, in Mexico since 2003 and in Canada since 2004. Smarts are now sold in 36 countries, and the company says it has sold 750,000 in the past decade.

Officials with Smart, a unit of DaimlerChrysler's Mercedes-Benz, have hesitated to bring the car here — until now.
"It's the right car in the right place at the right time," said Smart USA President Dave Schembri. Here's his reasoning:
• Superior fuel economy — projected at more than 40 mpg — makes it a natural during these times of high gas prices.
Base price: $12,000
Dimensions: 8.8 feet long, 5.1 feet tall, 5.1 feet wide and weighs 1,653 to 1,808 pounds, depending on the model
Mileage: Projected at more than 40 mpg
Top speed: 90 mph
San Jose Mercury News
• Small size makes it a good fit in crowded urban environments.
• Low price — from $12,000 to $17,000 — makes it trendy at a time when a revival of small cars such as Honda's Fit, Nissan's Versa and Toyota's Yaris are finding U.S. buyers.
Smart needed a different distribution model, Schembri said, so the company picked Roger Penske's UnitedAuto Group to be the distributor. The company will announce its U.S. dealers, perhaps 50 to 75, next month. Many, but not all, Smart dealers also will be Mercedes-Benz dealers, Schembri said. "Probably over half," he said.
Although it sells other variants elsewhere in the world, Smart will come to the United States with just one model, the two-seat Fortwo.
It'll be sold as a base two-door called the Fortwo Pure for about $12,000; as a better-equipped coupe, the Fortwo Passion, for about $14,000; and as a two-door convertible, the Fortwo Passion Cabrio, for about $17,000.
All models will get a 71-horsepower, 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine mated with a five-speed automated manual transmission. The Fortwo has a top speed of 90 mph, Smart says.
Many consumers will question the safety of such a small car. Schembri said the entire chassis serves as a safety cage, something Smart calls the Tridion safety cell with high-strength steel.
The Fortwo meets U.S. crash-test regulations and comes standard with four air bags, antilock brakes and electronic stability control.
Ramirez, a retired businessman who worked at the Mexican consulate in San Jose for many years, has dual citizenship that allowed him to bring his Mexican-registered, two-tone Smart Fortwo Passion model to California.
It arrived about a month ago and has about 600 miles on its odometer.
"Believe me, this is the car of the future," Ramirez said. "I love the environment. I love nature. That's the real reason I wanted this car."

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Honesdale man who suffered stroke to throw first pitch at tonight's RailRiders game
Jay Goble woke up to friends and family members praying at his bedside in a hospital in Allentown.
A vehicle crash along Business Route 6 crushed his carotid artery, causing a massive stroke. Doctors said he would never walk or talk again.
Fourteen years after his crash, Mr. Goble, of Honesdale, will throw the first pitch at tonight's Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders game, scheduled to start at 6:35 p.m.
Then the 48-year-old will ride his motorized scooter 22 times around the concourse at PNC Field - about eight miles - and walk a final lap with his granddaughter, Alexis Heney of Forest City.
"It's going to be amazing to share the moment with my granddaughter," said Mr. Goble, who credited his therapists at Allied Services for his recovery. "I told myself from the start I wouldn't be bound to a wheelchair."
Organized by Allied Services, tonight's event - called "Jay's Journey II ⦠Hope for Stroke" - is meant to raise awareness and educate people on strokes. May is National Stroke Awareness Month.
On average, someone in the United States has a stroke every 40 seconds, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
A stroke happens when a blockage prevents the flow of blood to the brain and can lead to life-changing complications, such as paralysis or problems with memory or speech.
Mr. Goble struggled for months to come as far as he has, spending weeks sounding out words and repeating tongue exercises at Heinz Rehab Hospital in Wilkes-Barre so he could speak again.
To relearn how to walk, he committed himself to a grueling regimen that focused on torso-work and balancing exercises. When he finally felt comfortable, he took his first steps on a treadmill while holding onto the handles.
As far as he has come, the road to recovery isn't over yet. Mr. Goble still can't use his left arm. But he is adamant that will change.
More than anything, he hopes his story provides inspiration to other stroke survivors.
"It's all about having a positive mindset," he said. "If you believe it, you can make it happen."

Oh no, not another one?
Yup. I'm afraid so. Acting on a few suggestions received after the Tandem Ownership Survey went out, I've put together an unprecedented 2nd winter survey to help fill the void left by the less than inviting weather that continues to keep us off our tandems by giving you an outlet for tandem-related Web content.
Unlike the last one that looked at how many, what types, and what brands of tandems y'all own and ride (Co-Motion claimed top honors by an impressive margin on that one by the way), this new survey is for the
tandem-geeks out there who love to compare stats with other tandem teams to see how they stack-up in terms of experience, riding habits, physical characteristics, and involvement in tandem activities. The survey was launched about an hour ago so the results are a bit sparse at the moment. Please note, the server will only register one survey submittal per computer.
Survey web address:
Graphed Results web address:
Text Results web address:
On the bright side, the results on this survey will not need to be manually tabulated. What you see at the results page will be the only scoring that will occur. The write-in comments are not being moderated so bear in mind, what you write will be accessible to anyone who takes the survey. If you'd like to share a private comment that may not be something you'd like to share with the world please send me an Email with those comments.
To see how the results stack up over time you can find links to the results pages at this URL:
NOTE: As before with previous surveys, this data is not being collected for commercial purposes.
P.S. The results from the first '04 survey on tandem ownership are still available at this URL:

Cons: I purchased here on 9-3-2010 and the unit had failed entirely by 6-26-2011 and does not function at all it just sounds a constant "K" alert with a varying degree of signal strength.
Other Thoughts: I understand that Newegg is not responsible for the short life span of this product and they did a great job with my order being processed and shipping was done properly with plenty of packing to protect the shipped item.... but..... I really thought this radar detector would have lasted longer.....

Amy has been surviving horrific domestic violence in France for the past seven years. She is desperate to return home to the US to live her life free of abuse.
Samantha fears for her life and the life of her children on a daily basis. She wants nothing more than to escape the domestic violence she and her children are forced to endure in Jordan and return safely to the US with her three young children.
Melissa just left the hospital after being treated for broken bones due to violence from her boyfriend. In addition to the physical abuse against her, her boyfriend constantly threatens to murder her pets. She is trying to get everything in order to return back to the US with her dog, Rex, and cat, Simon.
Amy, Samantha & Melissa represent only three of the hundreds of American women we are assisting in their attempts to flee domestic abuse and return home to the US with their children and pets.
Between January and November of 2010, we have served 366 families. You can help bring them home safely in time for the holidays and help us assist survivors of domestic violence year round. Your donation will make the difference.
Aubrey was an American citizen living in Chile. She was forced to live in terror and had to endure horrific abuse at the hands of her husband. Her husband also abused their two young children. Aubrey's husband threatened to kill her and the children if she ever tried to leave him.
Aubrey reported the abuse to the police and the local US Embassy, but neither entity was able to intervene. Finally, after a desperate internet search for help, Aubrey located an international toll-free domestic violence crisis line for Americans abused overseas, 866USWomen.
You may already know that there are several families living overseas who fear for their lives because of domestic violence. Aubrey is not a lone figure; there are an estimated 99,750 Americans abused abroad each year. In many foreign countries, the resources for victims of domestic violence are scarce.
Thanks to the generous donations and support received from people like you, the Americans Overseas Domestic Violence Crisis Center was able to provide Aubrey and her two children with international danger to safety relocation, legal assistance, counseling, and assistance with basic needs when they returned to the US.
October is domestic violence awareness month. Please show your support in ending domestic violence against Americans residing abroad. Our project, Provide 500 Women Globally with Abuse Support, is participating in the give more get more campaign. Global Giving is matching all donations received between October 12 and October 21 at 30%, 40%, or 50%.
Please donate through this campaign to help a family like Aubrey's.
PS There is $100,000 available in matching funds for all projects participating on Global Giving so the money will go fast. The campaign will run until Oct 21 or until matching funds run out. Please make your donation today!
Dear Friends,
Thank you for your continued support serving American overseas survivors of domestic violence. In July of 2010, AODVC received 187 crisis calls from 63 families in 61 countries around the world. Our year to date number of incoming crisis calls is 1,376 serving 317 families.
In an email message sent to our Lead Case Manager, a client stated the following: "The assistance you provided to me in developing my escape plan is what enabled me to get out safely with my two children. My parents and I thank you so much!"
The services that we provide are, in large part, due to your support and donations. Thank you for helping American overseas survivors of domestic violence and their children.
Sincerely, The Americans Overseas Domestic Violence Crisis Center
Dear Friends, Thank you for your continued support serving American overseas survivors of domestic violence. After analyzing our crisis services statistics we discovered that we have received almost as many crisis calls in the first 6 months of 2010 as we received in the entire 12 months of 2009. Our International Advocates and Volunteer Advocates have been working tirelessly to continue providing award-winning services to this population.
AODVC received 1,189 crisis calls from 61 countries around the world. 281 families were served and 133 families have children. The total amount of children served was 254.
The services that we provide are, in large part, due to your support and donations. Thank you for helping American survivors of domestic violence and their children.
Sincerely. The Americans Overseas Domestic Violence Crisis Center
Dear Supporters of AODVC,
June 16th is matching day! Global Giving is matching at 50% up to $1,000 per donor per project!
Since the launch of our Global Campaign, our crisis calls have increased more than 300%! With the increase in calls comes the need for the increase in direct services, including danger to safety relocation, case management, legal assistance, counseling, and assistance with basic needs. To be able to meet the increase in calls while continuing to provide award winning services, we need your help!
Please donate on June 16, 2010 to American victims of domestic violence and child abuse abroad and have your donation matched at 50%! Thank you for your generous support.
Brooke Galloway

As a synthesizer riff filled the room at the White Rabbit Cabaret, the spirit of the 1980s bounded onto the stage.
Dressed in blue cutoff denim vest decorated in Voltron, a fanny pack and garish gold shoes, Andy D throttled into his weird brand of party dance rap. His rat-tail haircut flipped back and forth as he gyrated and bounced through the small Indianapolis club.
A disco ball threw glittering light above his head, the halo he sings about on his song "Angels of the Dancefloor."
On stage, Andy D sings frantic, all-over-the-place songs about love, unicorns, magic, rainbows and Vikings. His '80s-inspired music blends soul, rap and rock, and his outsized personality has won fans across the country, including collaborators Andrew W.K. and Electric Six.
Go See Andy D
Real name: Andy Duncan
Age: 31
Home: Greenwood
Education: Graduated in 2000 from Greenwood Community High School; double-majored in anthropology and religious studies at New York University
Family: Wife, Victoria
Upcoming area shows
Aug. 9: 9 p.m., The Root Cellar, 108 E. Kirkwood Ave., Bloomington
Aug. 17: 8 p.m., Gen Con, with Five Year Mission; Westin Hotel ballroom, 50 S. Capital Ave., Indianapolis, admission $6.
Information: entertheawesome.wordpress.com
When asked what it is about Andy D that draws such a crowd, Electric Six lead singer Dick Valentine pointed to the whole package — his look, his energy and his stage presence.
"I mean — just look at him," Valentine said.
But behind the bravado, Andy D is really Greenwood resident Andy Duncan. Though at first glance his act may seem like a parody of the Decade of Decadence, it's simply an extension of his mantra to be himself.
"I look the way I do and dress the way I do because I just want to be more awesome. That's what this looks like. This is what my 8-year-old self would be proud of," he said.
Some people have scoffed at his retro look, dismissing someone who was a child for most of the 1980s as glamorizing a not-so-great chapter in American culture.
But Duncan prefers to look at it a different way. He's not calling for a return to the Reagan years so much as borrowing the positive elements of its music here in the present.
"I don't operate with nostalgia. I just like what I like. I don't want to go back to the '80s, I want to go to the future," he said. "I like that we're in a culture where that I have access to things that were recorded in the '60s or '70s or '80s and can take from that."
Of particular interest is an obscure genre of music that was popular at the time — Latin freestyle. Popularized by artists such as Taylor Dayne and Expose, it used synthesizers to create the effect of Afro-Cuban horns and rhythms.
Duncan first started listening to music as this wave spread across the airwaves, and it underlies much of his current work.
"That was a really adventurous time for positive music — hip-hop like Salt-n-Pepa and Arrested Development. Everyone was wearing really bright colors and had asymmetrical haircuts," he said. "I love the weird styles."
Even after the fashion and music gave way to the morose, heady grunge years, Duncan decided he would stay true to the style that was more fitting of his personality.
"I want to have a rat tail, and I want to have lines in my head. I want to grow a mustache. It all became this gestaltic being that I wanted to be," he said. "I'm an adult, and no one could tell me that I couldn't do it."
'Clever and funny'
His songs are a mix of old-school rap boasting and off-
the-wall mythology.
Duncan's most recent release, "Warcries," tells the story of a post-apocalyptic world where robots and mutants fight it out. "Warriors of partying" travel through time to teach them how to dance.
Music has been Duncan's preferred method of communication since he was a teenager. While attending Greenwood Community High School in the late 1990s, he and his friends formed a band called Wemmick, described as a "more metal version of Primus," he said.
After graduating from Greenwood in 2000, he went to New York University to study writing. Plugged into the eclectic New York music scene, Duncan became heavily involved with noise rock that challenged listeners to make it through a song.
"We got into some really obnoxious, experimental volume music," he said. "I decided the next type of music that I would do would be as accessible as possible, verses and choruses, clever and funny."
The Andy D persona was a reaction to the heavy toll that noise rock can take on a listener. Drawn to pop acts such as Prince, he started writing music with danceable riffs, fun-loving lyrics and catchy beats.
Duncan determined he wasn't a very good singer, so he turned to rapping, a la the Beastie Boys, to get his message across.
The first song he wrote was an ode to hard living and partying all night called, "Rockslow." From that point, he started putting together synthesizer-heavy rap songs.
He found a ready and willing audience in New York City hungry for this joyous, nostalgic, bombastic music.
"All lot of people at shows were friends, but a lot weren't. People just seemed to dig this. I was winning people over at the few shows I was doing," he said.
'He's real'
Around 2008, Duncan moved back to Indiana. In the college bars of Bloomington, his following grew. People were filling up shows and selling out on weekends, which validated Duncan's career direction.
"If people didn't like it, I wouldn't be doing it. I would have moved on. But they still liked enough to give it a shot," he said.
Since that time, he's been working tirelessly to build the brand. Duncan performs almost every weekend, traveling as far away as California, Washington, D.C., and Florida to do shows.
With his wife, Victoria, in the band, he doesn't have to upset his personal life to pursue his professional goals. For the first time this past year, they have been able to make their living solely on their music, without any side jobs.
Their success has been in part due to a tight relationship with Detroit party rockers Electric Six, who have had Andy D open for them multiple times and recording on his albums.
Andy D and his entourage will be opening for the band on its upcoming European tour. After establishing a fan base in the U.S., Duncan is looking forward to bringing his music to the Netherlands, France and the United Kingdom.
"We've heard that if you've been popular in the U.K. any time, people will come out to your shows and support you no matter what. Electric Six has a loyal and rabid group of fans there, so we're hoping to have some good shows and make an impact," Duncan said.
When Valentine and the rest of Electric Six were planning the tour, they knew that Andy D would be the perfect addition.
"(Europeans) love real America, and that's what Andy is. That's why the Kings Of Leon got so big over there, because they seemed like real Americans. And they're not even entertaining," Valentine said. "Imagine how far Andy can go due to the fact that he's real — and very entertaining."

Very cool!... I'm wondering what could happen if arrived the 203rd lady, who needed the toilet: could she be jailed??...
Ceers, Flavio
Hehe... probably the first will be flushed away the toilet ;-)
If lady 203 is entering the restroom and she is a visa-waiver-tourist she will be defnitly arrested for two reasons: 1. She entered the restroom although there are already 202 ladies inside. 2. Probably she did not answered question B) at the I-94W-form correct: "... are you seeking entry to engage in criminal or immoral activities?"
But this will never happen, because there is no SWAT-Team that will go there to identfy the 203rd lady. Why? Would you discuss with 203 ladies at the same time to find out who last entered the restroom?
But the real question is: What the hell are more then 200 ladies are doing in the same restroom at the same time? On the other hand - maybe it's better not to know the truth ;)
Definitly a funny one - thanks Axel!
Having read your comment about this in the forum, I'll still add my little comment. It would seem that lady 201 might delay entrance, if only for the fact that the pile-up was already of sufficient size.
202? Pro Kabine? :-D

Japanese search the rubble for dead before cleanup
ONAGAWA, Japan A cold wind blowing at her back, Tayo Kitamura knelt beside her mother's body and pressed her palm against the blue plastic tarp rescue workers had just wrapped the corpse in. She leaned in as if to hug the body, then closed her eyes tightly as tears slid down her cheeks.
Firefighters had just pulled her 69-year-old mother Kuniko from the rubble of Onagawa, a once vibrant fishing town that was obliterated when last week's tsunami converted it into a landscape of death and destruction. Eight days after one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded unleashed the cataclysmic wave, desperate families are still searching for loved ones in the ruins of lost towns.
The painstaking task must be completed before heavy machinery can be called in en masse to begin the next phase: clearing away the oceans of debris that are all that's left of much of northeastern Japan's coast. So far, police have confirmed more then 7,300 deaths. Another 10,900 are missing and feared dead.
The search repeats itself up and down the coast. In Kesennuma, Sachiko Kikuta walks 12 miles (20 kilometers) a day, looking for signs of her sister. She does not think about the possibility that she might not be alive.
"We talk about how the search is going, but we don't talk about the worst that might have happened, that I might not find her," said the 27-year-old.
In the cold remains of Onagawa on Saturday, one boy ignored his own worst-case scenario, calling hopelessly across the wasteland for his mother. "Yuki! Yuki!"
The call seemed futile.
The March 11 tsunami was so powerful it sucked away entire towns. With almost no survivors amid the wreckage, rescue teams are searching almost exclusively for the dead. Residents say half of Onagawa's 10,000 people are gone.
The boy and his family pulled up wooden beams and iron bars from a tangled mass of debris that used to be his mother's home and cast them aside. She was not there.
Mizue Yamamura, 76, was also searching for her husband in Onagawa. She poked a thin stick against a soiled white cloth that looked like it could be a bloated corpse. It was not.
"I think a lot of bodies are in there," she said, looking up toward a mountainous heap of broken wooden planks that once formed rows of houses. The rescuers "have not even begun to search under here."
When the earthquake shook her third-floor apartment, Yamamura hurried outside with her husband, Yoshio, and began climbing a tree-lined hillside.
Yoshio was wearing only sandals, though, and turned back to get a pair of shoes.
She never saw him again.
"One moment changed everything," she said, still wearing the clothes she had on when they fled together. "Between life and death. A matter of seconds."
Yamamura is now totally isolated from her family, able to call neither her two daughters nor her two grandchildren, who all live elsewhere in the island nation. Their numbers were in her ruined apartment, her cell phone is gone, and there is no longer cellular reception in Onagawa anyway.
A giant blue-bottomed boat sits overturned beside their shattered apartment. Here, a mile (two kilometers) from the town's harbor, the ocean is not even visible. The hills on both sides channeled tsunami's energy, propelling it deep into the valley.
Elsewhere, firefighters unearthed another body. They placed it under a tarp, and a woman searching for a relative steeled herself to look.
It was no one she knew, but tears welled in her eyes anyway. Then she bowed and walked away.

When Barb Keegan first met Steve Damin and he told her he was a dairy farmer from New York, she said "Yeah right, and the moon is made of green cheese!" Now, over 36 years later, she says she knows better!
Steve and Barb Damin met in Hill City, SD in late winter of 1977, where Barb (Keegan) worked for the U.S. Forest Service. She was a local girl from Rapid City, SD. Steve, a New York native who had traveled to South Dakota after high school, had opened a mining company located in Keystone, SD.
Steve's parents, back in St. Johnsville, NY, were having difficulty finding and keeping farm help, so, as their two little girls neared school age, Steve and Barb made the decision to move back to New York State onto Damin's family farm. [Read more…]

High-protein diet linked to constipation?
Just wondering...
I heard that when you ingest too much protein, you can get constipated. Weird.
Is this true? If so, whats a low-calorie way to up the fiber intake? I take fiber tablets but they are 35 cals per serving and the rec. serving amt. per day is 5 times. (Not cool)
Mon. Jun 25, 5:56pm
A high-protein diet will give you constipation if you are not eating enough fiber. Along with the protein add high fiber foods such as cabbage, broccoli, and other green leaft veggies. Also find a low sugar high fiber cereal and or bread that is allowed on your diet.
Focus on real foods when it comes to fiber. You get lots more nutrients and costs a lot less.
Monday, June 25, 2007, 10:04 PM
10:04 has is right, you need some fiber or you will be "bound-up." I think the hard thing about high protein diets can be tricky to tolerate long term. Just make sure you get SOME kind of carb i.e. carrots because re-gaining the weight a lot of the time is attributed to "over-carbing" your body after you've been denying it.

a tip for "unleashing the hounds"- Bolthouse Farms Vedge Juice. Drink a big bottle and your problems will end very very quickly.
Monday, June 22, 2009, 3:02 PM
Some grains like couscous and veggies like avocado are relatively high in fiber and protein.
Monday, June 22, 2009, 3:23 PM
I eat three to four oz of protein with every meal. I have been on and off so many different meal plans in the past year that my body has no idea what's going on! At one point I didn't "go" for six days and that's not good! I started taking magnesium tablets and now no matter what I'm eating my bowels are very regular. I started with the 250 mg tablets and have now settled on 750 per day. Best suggestion anyone has every given me about poop problems :)

Christine Jensen's Multiple Personalities Expand Her Musical Repertoire
Christine Jensen says she has multiple personalities. She's a saxophonist, a composer, leader of a jazz group, and more recently, the conductor of an 18-piece jazz orchestra.
RATH: That requires yet another personality, a businesswoman to make a generally unprofitable venture work.
CHRISTINE JENSEN: It's not like the pop industry where it's an investment that's going to most likely pay off. It is really hard to get it to the public unless you're touring all the time, and obviously with a big family, that's really hard.
RATH: Christine Jensen's latest album is called "Habitat." This piece, "Intersection" is the first time she'd ever attempted to write specifically for a big band.
JENSEN: At the time, I was playing a lot with sextets and quintets, and everyone said, oh, that piece is so nice. You should arrange it for big band. And I'm like, oh my God, that's so much work. Eighteen, 18 people, that's a lot of people to think about.
Gradually, once I got comfortable doing a few things, I challenged myself to write something that creates a journey, and I was basically trying to find a concept where I was featuring many different soloists and different corners of the piece. So you hear a bit of small group to large group to solo piano. There's a lot of different textures in this piece.
RATH: You're a great saxophone player, but this is not the typical jazz big band that you think of where, you know, the person is fronting and playing their own horn. You actually, when I've seen you, most of your times your hands are too busy conducting to be picking up a horn. Is there something about this music? Is it too difficult to conduct and play at the same time?
JENSEN: There is definitely a challenge there. It depends, I guess, you know, I think of an album, each piece to me is a short story, and maybe I'm involved in it as a player, maybe I'm involved in it as a conductor of the music. And that word conducting is a very strong word for me.
So I'm in the music as the composer, conductor and sometimes the player. But I also feel that the large ensemble jazz setting for me is also balancing that beautiful spur-of-the-moment thing that happens in jazz with the soloists and with the rhythm section.
And then there's this ensemble writing. So where I place the soloists or myself is all about finding a fine balance between the two things.
RATH: Well, there's on track where you have to hear you play soprano sax on. That's "Sweet Adelphi." What is it like - I know you've talked about the headspace of a composer and the headspace of an improviser being almost distinct. So what's it like smashing those two together?
JENSEN: Well, that's, I guess that's when I get to be in the moment.
JENSEN: "Sweet Adelphi" is also kind of one of the first pieces I wrote from Ingrid and me, my sister. She's the trumpet player, Ingrid Jensen. And I was sitting, I remember, distinctly remember sitting on the street, which is Adelphi Street in Brooklyn in Fort Greene. And it was a beautiful spring day, and I just wrote the motive down super fast. And she was in the other room going oh, that's really pretty. Keep going.
JENSEN: There was a few other pieces on this album where I thought I would be able to play. The first track is "Tree Lines" and I had originally thought my sister and I would be having this big conversation over this piece, but in the end I really had to conduct more than play at that point.
RATH: Well, talking about your sister, Ingrid Jensen, for people who are not familiar with jazz, she's a fantastic trumpet player, has been on the scene for a while. So as you're working as the architect of this music, how do you deploy Ingrid, like in a tune like "Tree Lines?"
JENSEN: Oh, that's a good question. "Tree Lines" I found was something where I was working on character development a little bit and how you have to balance between the soloist and the ensemble. It's a tricky thing. I think that's why some of my songs are a bit too long. But I find deploying her is a great word. Every take we do I'm just trying to lay out some things for her so she can have this freedom to do what she likes on top of my music.
RATH: Let's talk about the track "Tumble Down." That's about your travels in Haiti. Can you talk about what inspired that piece?
JENSEN: That I wrote quickly out of the spirit of the moment of the sadness I felt when I heard about that devastating earthquake.
RATH: This was the earthquake in Haiti in 2010.
JENSEN: Yeah, thank you, 2010. And I'd been there the previous years, a few years back, 2007 and 2008. It was a visit where I felt there was so much hope and so much of a future in terms of infrastructure ahead of them. I think I met the most beautiful people in my life from all my travels by going to Port-au-Prince.
And then, you know, a few years later I'm sitting in a residency at the BAM Center for Fine Arts, and I was trying to write some music, and I just I couldn't believe this earthquake had hit and kind of wiped out what I thought was some structure that was going to start happening in this place. So that, you know, it's amazing that there's a place this close to North America and how third world it is when you look at it.
And to know that it went deeper into this dark place after an earthquake. But I do know that, you know, after meeting these people, they're so resilient and so positive and so beautiful that that's sort of the journey of that piece for me.
RATH: That's saxophonist, composer and band leader Christine Jensen. Her new album is called "Habitat." Christine, thank you so much. It was a blast talking with you.
JENSEN: Thank you for having me.

The new warehouse will process e-commerce orders and speed deliveries to consumers on the East Coast.
Seattle-based retail chain Nordstrom Inc. announced Tuesday plans to open its third fulfillment center, this one in Elizabethtown, PA. Nordstrom, No. 28 in Internet Retailer's 2103 Top 500 Guide, will build the 672,000-square-foot warehouse in the Conewago Industrial Park. Construction began on Monday with the opening set for summer 2015.
Nordstrom uses an integrated inventory platform that allows orders to be fulfilled both by stores and fulfillment centers. The Pennsylvania center will handle orders placed through Nordstrom.com, the Nordstrom mobile app and the chain's catalog, and will help to speed shipments to consumers on on the East Coast, Nordstrom says.
The retailer already operates fulfillment centers in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and San Bernadino, CA. Nordstrom says the new fulfillment center will employ at least 400 full-time workers, the chain says.
"E-commerce is the fastest-growing area of our business and this is another example of how we're investing in people and capabilities to help us support this growth and responding to our customers' changing definition of service," says Jamie Nordstrom, president of Nordstrom Direct.
Nordstrom, which also owns fashion site HauteLook.com, took in $1.3 billion in web sales in 2012, up 42.39% from 2011, according to Top500Guide.com. The department store chain fulfills orders from its two existing warehouses and 117 retail locations. Nordstrom serves customers in 98 countries and offers free shipping and returns within the United States.

We stock a wide range of garden buildings including these Traditional Log Cabins. Our traditional buildings are perfect for any garden providing an outdoor space to enjoy. They can be used as almost anything! They can easily be turned into a garden office, second living room, a gym or even a playroom!
Our traditional style products have special design features like an apex roof, chalet corner connections and sash windows. These traditional style qualities give a cottage like look. All our wooden buildings are made from slow grown, FSC certified timber. When timber is slow grown it becomes denser and stronger; this adds to the quality of our buildings.
Our Traditional Log Cabins come in a range of sizes to suit your needs. Our smaller versions are ideal for use as a summerhouse. They provide an internal space for relaxing. If you need more space some of our categories feature two internal rooms. This is particularly if you need office space! You can have one room for working and one room for meetings with business partners or clients. Our range is perfect for any garden. All you need to ensure before your building is built is a flat, level base. The base needs to be completely level; if the base is not level it can lead to the building cracking or sagging on one side. This causes lots of damage.
Our log cabins can be decorated in any style! There is many things you can do to the inside and outside of your building to make it suit your home style. Adding shingles is one way to add to the look of a building. All our cabins are supplied with roofing felt but if you want more homely look you can add shingles. A shingle is like a felt roofing tile. The shingles go over the top of roofing felt; so you will need to lie this on the roof of your log cabin first. The shingles are simply tacked into the bearers on the roof.
Another way of decorating is with paint. Wood paint comes in so many different colours these days from more traditional colours like green or red to more modern colours like white, cream or even dark grey. Painting can give it a completely new look or can help tie in a building with the rest of your garden.

Mobile phones with full touch screen operation are in vogue, which has now provided also to the traditional providers that went on this new look and operating concept although relatively late, with corresponding products. Sony Ericsson wished to engage with the U1i "satio" under the motto "better late than never" to the full touch-business smart phone and remembers to make the device with interesting concept, to the old virtues that have been the unforgettable K800i with 3.2 MP Camera quality, Sony Ericsson thus aims for high-performance photo phone in the format. To this claim even in 2009, it will meet with satio that runs with heavy artillery in the form of a 12.1 MP camera. Behind the pictures, xenon flash and face detection are embeded. Using the built-in YouTube client technology, it can also easily upload homemade movies. It is approximately available for 490 EUR (market price without a contract), costing of the satio Symbian OS. The modern mobile phone is available either in black, silver or Bordeaux. The other features include everything that is asked today: HSDPA, EDGE, WiFi, radio, numerous organizer functions, as well as the entertainment organizer MediaGO which media between your phone and PC and transfer data easily. Whether the satio can teach the established and many expressed user the fear of competition, will be demonstrated in our review.
Sony Ericsson satio U1i -TouchScreen Smart Phone
Processing Features
1. First optical impression / special features to support the design - High gloss plastic with silver inserts - a beautiful, timeless combination, but extremely vulnerable fingerprint.
2. Housing material / surface quality - Glossy silver plastic combined with elements.
3. Housing Dimensions - With a weight of 126 gram, satio is among the lightest in its class, with a dimension of 112.0 x 55.0 x 13.0 mm, it is not very compact.
4. Precision of the touch screen - The touch screen is not responding as perfect as competitive mobiles with more experience of touch (Apple, Samsung) - this is still potential for improvement exists.
5. Goodness (sharpness / resolution) of the display - 3.5 inch TFT display with 16.7 million colors and a resolution of 360x640 pixels. Very good color and flawless presentation - but neither comes to the display of the LG new chocolate BL40 nor to the AMOLED display of Samsung Omnia approached.
6. Implementation of the folding or sliding - Solid-looking sliding the camera cover.
7. Quality of the battery compartment cover - The battery compartment cover is made of plastic and is easy to open, close, and also sits fits perfectly.
8. The quality and scope of the supplied accessories - USB cable, manual, charger, 8 GB Micro SD, Stylus.
9. Processing Results - The touch-screen mobile phone is a beautiful combination of high-gloss plastic and chrome elements. Unfortunately, it thus has extremely vulnerable fingerprint. It is after with its forms and the weight of our opinion, not optimal in the hand. The touchscreen operation is unfortunately not convinced, as they responded partially right or tap delayed until after the second time. 16.7 million colors are brilliantly displayed on the display. The accurately-fitting plastic battery cover scores for the satio because it sits perfectly. The accessory's included are more than the standard by adding an 8 GB Micro SD card. - With a cell phone without a lot of internal memory, this is in the price league for the 500 euro.
The battery compartment lid made of plastic, can be easily opened and sits well
The volume control buttons, camera / video button and photo button are clean fit
The integrated speaker
The rear show of the mobile phone is more like a digital camera
Major plus point, the brilliant display

Joplin's airport manager says that failure of the federal government to stop sequestration cuts of air traffic controllers effective Sept. 30 puts airports and travelers on the verge of something "very scary."
Steve Stockam this week attended a policy committee meeting of the U.S. Contract Tower Association in Washington, D.C.
He also called on Missouri's senators, Roy Blunt and Claire McCaskill, and Rep. Billy Long, R-Springfield, to discuss options for trying to prevent budget sequestration cuts that would trim air traffic control jobs Sept. 30, the end of the federal fiscal year. The Federal Aviation Administration has scheduled 160 towers to close then, including Joplin's.
An earlier round of furloughs and closures of 149 air control towers that went into effect at the end of April was halted after three days by congressional action because the lack of controllers stalled so many flights.
The cuts are taking place because the FAA has been under a mandate to cut its budget by $637 million this fiscal year. It has targeted tower closures or air traffic controller cuts for the nation's smaller airports, those with fewer than 150,000 flights.
The April cuts delayed 40,000 flights and canceled nearly 2,000 within three days, causing Congress to act to stop those cuts and furloughs.
"The budget is a big issue with the sequestration," Stockam said. "If there is new budget bill before Oct. 1, we have asked for language to fund all the contract towers, which is $150 million."
Another option would be for Congress to pass a continuing resolution to protect the towers from the cuts, Stockam said.
Complicating the problem is a mute FAA.
"One of the things so frustrating is the lack of communication we're having with the FAA," Stockam said.
"Right now, the FAA is not speaking with us about the contract. This is a program that's been going on for 50 years, and it's always been a program of cooperation.
"We were stakeholders," and sat around the table to hold discussions and resolve any issues facing the FAA. "For some reason, we've been totally blocked out of this process. So there is a high level of frustration and apprehension" among airport managers over this issue.
"We don't believe the FAA has full understanding of the impact of this decision," he said.
In April at the Dallas-Fort Worth airport, where Joplin's American Eagle flights come and go, "We were on the verge of something very, very scary for the flying public," Stockam said. That will happen again in September, he said.
Stockam is trying to plan the airport's budget for next year, a difficult chore while staring at the possibility of the tower closing, he said.
A last-ditch effort to protect those operations at the Joplin Regional Airport would be to see if the City Council would support the city paying for air traffic control.
That possibility could cost the city $250,000 to $300,000, Stockam said.
Blunt issued a statement saying the airport is important to travel, tourism and the economy of Southwest Missouri.
"I'll continue working to ensure the Obama administration targets sequestration cuts in a smarter way to avoid unnecessary and irresponsible closures," Blunt said in a statement issued by his office.
McCaskill spokesman Drew Pusateri said, "Claire's priority is ensuring that these kinds of decisions are made with the safety of Missourians in mind, and in order for that to be accomplished, there will need to be closer and better communication between local communities and the FAA."

Thiruvananthapuram, July 4 (IANS) Popular Malayalam classic 'Aranazhikaneram' is to be serialised into 40 episodes.
The Kerala Sahithya Academy Award winning novel of K.E. Mathai, whose pen-name is 'Parapurath', was a big hit in Kerala as it became film in 1970. Noted actor Kottarakara played the lead role in the movie.
Shyama Prasad, chief of programmes of Amrita TV, said the serial would be aired from July 7 and this would be the first in the series in their new programme titled 'Classic Stories'.
Indicating a different kind of treatment of novel when it is serialised, Prasad told reporters that the theme of the novel would not be changed.
'This is a reinterpretation of the novel and would have a different line as compared to the film. In other words, it is recreation,' said Shivmohan Thampi, director of the serial.
Expressing happiness over the project, son of the late writer, Sam Parapurath said, 'Through this many who have not read the novel or seen the film can relive it through the TV.'
Noted Malayalam film actor Murali plays the role that handled Kottarakara in the black and white movie. The serial is going to be a treat to watch the lush greenery of 'Thazhava' a typical Kerala village near Alapuzha.
Over the years, the novel is also a prescribed text book for the Malayalam BA and MA course in the universities in Kerala.

During the courtship of Helix aspersa, the snails push calcareous darts into one another. To examine the importance f this unusual action for the normal expression of their sexual behaviour, one group of Helix aspersa was prevented from exchanging darts by surgically removing their dart sacs. Another group of Helix aspersa had their digitiform glands surgically removed. These glands secrete a mucus that coats the dart. Glandless snails were capable of exchanging darts, but the darts lacked their normal mucus coating. Both dartless and glandless pairs required more courtship time to reach copulation than did sham-operated controls. Therefore, it appears that it is the mucus from the digitiform gland, not the mechanical action of the dart, which affects courtship duration.
Injections of gland homogenate decreased the courtship duration of sexually receptive, dartless, and glandless snails. Gland homogenate also increased the size of the recipient's genital eversion, and retarded locomotion. The mucus was only effective if it entered the circulatory system of a sexually receptive snail at a specific stage of genital eversion.
The active agent in the digitiform gland mucus fulfills the requirements for the substance to be classified as a pheromone. It enters the circulatory system of the conspecific via inoculation by the dart.

Awesome love this girl, my wife has given loads of BJs to guys. At one time she was giving them out like smarties. I video'd her doing it twice, 1st one she showed me his load in her mouth. There's only one thing better than seeing a guys cock in your wifes mouth its seeing him cum and her proudly showing you a mouthful of his cream! The second time I didn't see his jizz, I knew he was cumming and she never took her mouth off it for several minutes, his cock was softening, sucked dry and clean of any cum and she had swallowed the lot. Her excuse was there was loads of cum and she was worried about it going everywhere lol. Awesome!
My wife has been sucking my friend off for years, never fucked him. She started doing out because his g/f (now wife) wouldn't do it. They would just meet up and she would give him a sneaky BJ! They lost touch for years and we met up, we drank and they crashed at our place. His wife went to bed and we talked, needless to say these secret blow jobs cropped up in the chat. I asked why? My wife said that she thought as a teen that no guy should go without having his cock sucked, and she was happy to fill in. No strings just a blow job every now and then. she was happy to offer her services whenever. Then he dropped the bombshell that the last time his cock was sucked was by her 4 years ago! She said OMG that is just wrong! I joked that she was available now, she immediately said that if I was happy she would do it. It was the right thing to do. Then in a similar scenario to this vid she sat and sucked him off, while i watched, he unloaded as always in her mouth. Now they often stay, if his wife has an early night my wife eats his cum! one time I was in the garden talking with his wife while my wife was giving him a quick blow job on the stairs. Loved it when she joined us and asked me quietly if I could taste his cum when she kissed me. I asked (quietly) shocked had she been sucking his cock already. She laughed "of course she had" that was the agreement she would offer her services whenever. Awesome love watching her!
I love my wife sucking guys off. I love watching and even talking her into it. One day she rang me saying she met an ex bf, I asked why doesn't she blow him? A bj for old time sake, she laughed saying she wouldn't mind he was hot and if it was ok she would go for it! I said it would get me off knowing she was sucking a guy off. She text me 40 mins later saying proudly he had gone, leaving her with a mouthful of cum telling her he wished his wife could suck cock like her!
great blow,wish i was your friend
Love watching this. My ex would wouldnt suck my cock. My new wife tho can't go days without a having a cock in her mouth. Doesn't have to be mine! Tbh tho I'm happy with that. I love her, we are honest with each other so if she has a sexy fling, one night stand or just gives a bj to a guy I'm happy that she is happy. I love her naughty tales. She has a regular fuck buddy too. He is married, as a relationship its just sex. One will contact, text and they will go and fuck and enjoy each other
god wifie
I don't know if it's better cummin in a guy's wife's mouth while he's watchin or when he doesn't know anything about it. I don't wanna give up doing either one.
I'd love to video my wife blowing my friends!
