Ok, here's the deal, my girlfriend shows absolutely no interest in doing maintenance on HER bike. Any and all upkeep is performed by me at present (not necessarily a BAD thing). Does anybody have any constructive suggestions on how to get her interested in exploring her own bike and learning why things work the way they do? I'm not asking for her to tear down a freewheel, but basic mechanical knowledge would be nice.
I've tried sending her to Sheldon Brown's site (try doing a search on Sheldon Brown here - it's INSANE) but to no avail. How can I make this interesting enough for her? I've asked her, during times of EXTREME boredom, if she wanted me to show her how to adjust something on her bike, No Dice.
I will say this much, she can fix a flat so she's not hopeless.

I'm not. With the exception of sequels to fics not yet finished and one fic that I can't plan until the English release of B/W, I have no stories I could use for NaNo. There's one that I just started the planning for last night that would definitely allow me to reach the 50,000 word mark. The thing is, though, is that I would much rather write that fic by hand due to the amount of research and videos that I would have to watch. And doing that would automatically cut into my typing time, which is already cut short by increased work hours and reading.
Personally, I'm doing my own NaNo for fics that I've already written out completely. My downfall is that I hate editing and typing what I've already completed long-hand, so my plan is to force myself to write what I've already typed. It's pretty much the NaNoEdiMo that happens in December for everyone who used NaNoWriMo November to their advantage.

Loan Updates
Jaime has dedicated much of his life to agriculture, which has generated the necessary income to sustain his children and his wife. He learned his work thanks to his father having taught him since he was very young, and along with his brothers he has been working ever since.
Jaime, who now has his own crops, has seen how the climate is causing his crops to fail, and for that reason he must install an irrigation system quickly, along with fertilizer for the seeds, to ensure that the crop does not fail completely. Jaime therefore wants to buy fertilizer, irrigators and seeds, which will allow him to keep his crop healthy - but he does not have the capital to take on the investment. For this reason he has pinned his hopes on a loan, which will enable him to buy the fertilizer, irrigators and seeds. with these, he will be able to keep his crop in good condition.
Jaime dreams that his wife and two children might have a stable future financially, so he is saving and seeking to generate new sources of income. He also dreams that he might offer his children a stable future, a better standard of living, and the opportunity to progress and one day have well-paid jobs.

Jaime se ha dedicado gran parte de su vida a la agricultura, actividad que le ha generado los ingresos necesarios para el sostenimiento de sus hijos y su esposa.
Jaime aprendió la actividad gracias a que su padre se la enseñó desde muy pequeño, y con sus hermanos ha venido trabajando desde entonces.
Jaime, quién actualmente tiene su propio cultivo, ha visto como las condiciones climáticas le ha deteriorado sus cultivos, por lo que debe realizar pronto un riego con abonos y semillas, que eviten que su cultivo se deteriore por completo.
Jaime entonces, requiere de la compra de abono, semillas y riegos que le permitan mantener su cultivo sano, sin embargo, no cuenta con el capital suficiente para llevar a cabo la compra de estos productos, por lo que tiene la esperanza puesta en que un préstamo le permitirá comprar los abonos, riegos y semillas con los cuales podrá mantener en buenas condiciones su cultivo.
Jaime sueña con que su esposa y sus 2 hijos tengan una buena estabilidad económica, por esto ahorra y busca generar nuevas fuentes de ingresos.
Además, sueña con brindarles un futuro estable, una mejor calidad de vida, y una oportunidad de progresar y prepararse para obtener un empleo bien remunerado.
Additional Information
Important Information
This loan is structured on Kiva as a bullet loan, which means a single payment is required at the end of the loan term. By Colombian law, Kiva's partner Interactuar is required to offer borrowers loans with a variable interest rate that fluctuates with the market rate. Because fixed monthly payments are applied first to interest and then to principal, Interactuar is unable to predict upfront what portion of each repayment would go towards the loan principal. This creates a challenge with Kiva's system, which doesn't allow for unpredictable principal payments, and can result in some Interactuar clients appearing falsely delinquent. To remedy this, the loan has an end-of-term repayment plan on Kiva, but the borrower will continue scheduled monthly repayments to Interactuar, who will then pass along the principal amount to Kiva lenders. This means that you may see repayments made on this loan throughout the repayment term, as opposed to receiving repayment in full at the end of the loan term.

Ubuntu Security Notice (C) 2006-2015 Canonical, Inc. / NASL script (C) 2007-2015 Tenable Network Security, Inc.
Synopsis :
The remote Ubuntu host is missing one or more security-related patches.
Description :
This update upgrades Thunderbird from 1.0.8 to 18.104.22.168. This step was
necessary since the 1.0.x series is not supported by upstream any
Various flaws have been reported that allow an attacker to execute
arbitrary code with user privileges by tricking the user into opening
a malicious email containing JavaScript. Please note that JavaScript
is disabled by default for emails, and it is not recommended to enable
it. (CVE-2006-3113, CVE-2006-3802, CVE-2006-3803, CVE-2006-3805,
A buffer overflow has been discovered in the handling of .vcard files.
By tricking a user into importing a malicious vcard into his contacts,
this could be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the user's
privileges. (CVE-2006-3804)
The NSS library did not sufficiently check the padding of PKCS #1 v1.5
signatures if the exponent of the public key is 3 (which is widely
used for CAs). This could be exploited to forge valid signatures
without the need of the secret key. (CVE-2006-4340)
Jon Oberheide reported a way how a remote attacker could trick users
into downloading arbitrary extensions with circumventing the normal
SSL certificate check. The attacker would have to be in a position to
spoof the victim's DNS, causing them to connect to sites of the
attacker's choosing rather than the sites intended by the victim. If
they gained that control and the victim accepted the attacker's cert
for the Mozilla update site, then the next update check could be
hijacked and redirected to the attacker's site without detection.
malicous email could still execute JavaScript when the message is
viewed, replied to, or forwarded by putting the script in a remote XBL
file loaded by the message. (CVE-2006-4570)
The 'enigmail' plugin and the translation packages have been updated
to work with the new Thunderbird version.

A school district in Oklahoma has gone public with its implementation of video surveillance, which it put in place after mopping up from vandalism that cost between $20,000 and $30,000.
Legislators and district leaders are the last bastion for protecting students from the third parties that want to profit from access to information about them collected through schools, according to a new report on "student commercialism" funded in part by the Consumers Union.
Can schools and colleges consider every mass notification they send out an "emergency?" That's the question at the heart of a request filed with the Federal Communications Commission by Blackboard.
Bridg-it School allows students and teachers to report bullying incidents, deal with compliance requirements and resolve situations.
The focus on coming up with unusual passwords for getting into secure sites is probably misplaced, particularly when those passwords are accompanied by user names that are all too guessable. That's what a joint academic and industry research team has come up with after nearly a year of working together on the problem of authentication.
Stonington Public Schools has adopted a mobile safety platform to replace its paper-based emergency response system.
As documented on the front page of the New York Times, teachers are being asked to make decisions about the data privacy and security aspects of the apps they bring into their classrooms. With the current district/school policies, it is only a matter of time before a parent will sue a teacher for allowing a child's data to be published on the Internet. Something is wrong here!!
A lengthy list of educational organizations has signed on to support a new set of principles for protecting and guiding the use of student data by educators, researchers, state people, parents and others.
Panda Security has updated its Systems Management software.
The Cybersecurity Competition Federation has launched a new Web site designed to get more people involved with cybersecurity competitions and, ultimately, cybersecurity professions.

6 Reasons To Shoot 4k Video Even If You Can't View It Yet
Last week I wrote a post about how Nikon really needs to jump on the 4k bandwagon. I got a few comments that basically said; "Why do you care about 4k? nobody even owns a 4k TV at this point." They were right, 4k TVs aren't very popular, but I have no interest in producing 4k videos right now. I want to shoot 4k footage to enhance my 1080p videos.

When the first trailer for Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street erupted this summer and cut to the joyful noise of Kanye West's "Black Skinhead," it was only the latest great musical moment associated with the justly celebrated director.
Scorsese's movies always have one finger poised, ready to hit "play" on a mixtape of original compositions, pop standards, classical jams, neglected rock masterpieces and underground punk music that drive the story forward or illuminate the characters. Here are the eight greatest such moments.
"Jumpin' Jack Flash," Rolling Stones, Mean Streets
A bar, drenched in red light, is the setting, with Harvey Keitel waiting and watching as Robert De Niro makes his entrance — in slow motion, as the Stones establish the mood. Of all the great songs that Scorsese employed in his breakthrough movie, none captured the swaggering nature of a character quite like this one.
"All the Way from Memphis," Mott the Hoople, Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore
Scorsese starts his "women's picture" with classic tropes, then fast-forwards to the present day by dropping the needle on this jaunty, piano-driven rock song; listen to the lyrics and it's quite pertinent to the story, even though it wasn't written for the movie.
"Main Theme," Bernard Herrmann, Taxi Driver
The final original score by the great Bernard Herrmann starts with foreboding minor chords, and then seesaws between instruments, building up tension and establishing an unsettling mood. Even before anything has happened, the stage is set for murder.
"New York, New York," Liza Minelli, New York, New York
Although Frank Sinatra's subsequent 1979 version became more widely known, the song was first heard in Scorsese's 1977 musical, staged simply yet with finesse. Reportedly, composers Fred Ebb and John Kander are happy that Robert De Niro rejected their first version as "too weak," leading them to this rewrite.
"Werewolves of London," Warren Zevon, The Color of Money
Too caught up in his own sweet skills to realize he's blowing a huge opportunity, would-be pool hustler Tom Cruise sings along with Warren Zevon as he shows off by running the table, to the despair of his late-arriving mentor Paul Newman.
"Layla," Derek and the Dominoes, Goodfellas
At this point of the movie, the murderous activities of Ray Liotta's mob associate Jimmy (Robert De Niro) start to be uncovered, laying bare just how cold-blooded he is. Scorsese begins with the second portion of the song the "Piano Outro," a poignant piece of music that stabs at the heart, and eventually sets up the epic helicopter tracking sequence that is accompanied by an epic mixtape of songs.
"You Can't Put Your Arms Around a Memory," Johnny Thunders, Bringing Out the Dead
For his tale of a burned-out paramedic (Nicolas Cage) struggling to survive, Scorsese picked a bevy of hard-edged punk songs, including a couple by the Clash and this gem from the late musician's 1977 solo album, which reflects the paramedic's desperation and urgency.
"Comfortably Numb," Roger Waters and Van Morrison, The Departed
Haunted undercover cop Leonardo DiCaprio comes in out of the rain to visit Vera Farmiga in a tender, romantic scene. Notice how Scorsese drops the music out and then brings it back in, adding an effect that is both discomfiting and incredibly touching.
Bonus Tracks
We've barely touched the surface of how Martin Scorsese merges music with his movies. For example, we haven't even mentioned documentaries such as Shine a Light, George Harrison: Living in the Material World and No Direction Home: Bob Dylan; in each, he explores what makes the artists special. Or The Last Waltz, in which Scorsese and his camera crew captured the final concert by the Band, featuring a a very special performance by Bob Dylan.

text: The depression was not the direct cause of the war, but there was at least one obvious link between it and the war: the rise of Hitler. The millions who voted for Hitler were deeply affected by the depression and believed in his promise to overcome it within a short time. Actually the depression receded very quickly under his rule, but this was only partly due to him—although he got the credit for it. But he was not satisfied with this achievement: his ambition was to start a war so as to conquer Europe and rule the world. There were enough hints at that in his published work, but it seems that nobody cared to read it. Moreover, in his first years in power he appeared to be rather cautious. His drive for rapid rearmament started only in 1936. This finally led to a rupture of his relations with Hjalmar Schacht whose brilliant economic policy had enabled Hitler to consolidate his power. Schacht was a conservative nationalist who worked for the revision of the conditions imposed upon Germany by the Treaty of Versailles. He supported Hitler to the extent that he fought for this aim, but he did not share his vision of global hegemony and opposed further expansionism once German power was restored within what he considered to be its legitimate limits. Thus the clash with Hitler was inevitable. In 1937 Schacht resigned from his post as minister of economic affairs and withdrew to the position of president of the Reichsbank. But in trying to protect Germany from inflation he was bound to clash with Hitler once more. Like Takahashi in Japan he had to be eliminated as he obstructed the drive for rearmament, but whereas Takahashi was murdered, Schacht only fell from grace and spent the rest of his life in relative obscurity.

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.

IκB kinase (IKK) phosphorylation of SNAP-23 controls platelet secretion

Key points
Nongenomic role for IkappaB kinase (IKK) in platelet secretion: IKK phosphorylates SNAP-23, which affects granule-plasma membrane fusion.
Pharmacologic inhibition or deletion of platelet IKK affects bleeding times suggesting the utility of IKK inhibitors as anti-thrombotics.
Platelet secretion plays a key role in thrombosis, thus the platelet secretory machinery offers a unique target to modulate hemostasis. We report the regulation of platelet secretion via phosphorylation of SNAP-23 at Ser95. Phosphorylation of this t-SNARE occurs upon activation of known elements of the platelet signaling cascades (i.e. Phospholipase C, [Ca2+]i, Protein Kinase C) and requires IκB Kinase β (IKKβ. Other elements of the NFκB/IκB cascade (i.e. IKKα, β, γ/NEMO and CARMA/MALT1/Bcl10 complex) are present in anucleate platelets and IκB is phosphorylated upon activation suggesting that this pathway is active in platelets and implying a nongenomic role for IKK. Inhibition of IKKβ either pharmacologically (with BMS-345541, BAY11-7082, or TPCA-1) or by genetic manipulation (Platelet Factor 4 Cre::IKKβflox/flox), blocked SNAP-23 phosphorylation, platelet secretion, and SNARE complex formation; but, had no effect on platelet morphology or other metrics of platelet activation. Consistently, SNAP-23 phosphorylation enhanced membrane fusion of SNARE-containing proteoliposomes. In vivo studies with IKK inhibitors or platelet-specific IKKβ knockout mice showed that blocking IKKβ activity significantly prolonged tail-bleeding times suggesting that currently available IKK inhibitors may affect hemostasis.

Job Analysis Method
The success of a Telephone Customer Service Representative is largely dependent upon the employee possessing many intangible qualities. For this reason, the development of a selection process for this position must begin with a job analysis method that not only examines the technical skills and knowledge aspect of the job, but also puts a focus on employee behaviors. The data collected through the use of the critical incidents method of job analysis represents primary examples of on-the-job behavior (State of Colorado, 2002) and tasks. Examining instances of outstanding work quality as well as occurrences of inadequate performance will help to pinpoint which tasks are crucial to satisfactory job performance, and which are not (HR-Guide.com, 2001).
Job Description
Summary. The Telephone Customer Service Representative will report to the Customer Service Manager and is responsible for interacting with customers via telephone to provide information in response to inquiries about products and services and to handle and resolve complaints (O*Net Online, 2004). In addition, this position is responsible for identifying customer needs and recommending the appropriate product or service and soliciting new sales opportunities (O*Net Online, 2004).
Primary Responsibilities. The primary responsibilities of the Telephone Customer Service Representative are as follows:

"If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today? And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something."

Steak n Shake results just recently released were very impressive. The company generated over $20 million in EBITDA and continue to show improvement. And those results are carrying the additional cost of ramping up the franchising strategy, but without revenue contribution. Continued existing store improvement aided by the roll out of franchising in the years to come should provide for continued strong cash flow generation.Assuming a reasonable 8x EBITDA multiple on $80 mm of EBITDA from the restaurants values those businesses with a value of $640 million. Subtract the roughly $115 million of debt and you arrive at an EV of $525million just for the restaurants. Now add the $250 million in Cash and Investments held at the BH level and the total EV value of BH should be around $775 million. That's $550 per share. And that $550 has much upside potential in the years to come as the existing operations continue to improve, the existing portfolio grows, and the $80 million of free cash flow gets allocated each year.I think this stock will double in the next 3-4 years.I'm not sure why people are doubting Sardar Biglari. He's done everything he said he would do. His credibility, in my mind, is very high. He understands that you need to focus on the underlying operations first and foremost.I know there is a criticism that he is starving SNS with capital, but I think that's not true. I read a conference call transcript from about 5 years ago held by the prior management. First, they sound like they didn't know what they were doing and I see why they were running the company in the ground. However, on that call, according their numbers maintenance capex for SNS was $6-$7 million per year. That's about what Sardar is spending now- so all he's done is cut off the capex for new stores, while keeping the maintenance capex to make sure the existing stores are in good shape.In the next 5 years, the company should generate about $400 million in free cash flow- that's almost equal to the current enterprise value. As long as he doesn't make major blunders with that cash, value will grow. One thing he has proven effective at is making investments- and he's don't that well for the last 12 years through some tough environments.The bottom line is that the stock is cheap, Sardar is executing very well, and the future for BH looks better than ever.
Great analysis, I think you nailed it.
Art, Thanks for your reply. Your comments are thoughtful but your analysis, IMO, is being distorted by mixing and matching numbers. I won't go through your post item by item, but I will comment that EV/EBITDA is a valuation done designed to value companies without regard to how they are capitalized. The idea is that a buy could acquire the company based on the enterprise value and then capitalize however they choose. That's why you don't add include some cash for working capital as you have done. In other words, the multiple is capital structure neutral and allows for useful analysis.CBRL results are good this morning and Sardar is looking like a genius by buying 15% of the company at much lower levels. I estimate he has made north of $30 million in the last few months on this investment alone. Great capital allocation and proving once again, that he is a bargain at his current compansation level.I believe BH will be north of $500 within the year.
You think an 8x EBITDA multiple for a restaurant is reasonable? To each his own, I guess. I just quickly looked at WEN, RRGB, CBRL and none of them are trading at an 8x multiple. And the owners of those restaurants get 100% of the income. The owners of SNS only get 75% of the income above the hurdle rate.You should also go back and read the assumptions involved with the sale of Biglari Capital and WEST and then see if you think Sardar is doing everything he said he would. Buying WEST (or maybe it was Biglari Capital, I forget) was supposed to grow BH's asset management business. How has that worked out? In the last 2 years, the asset management business has had net outflows of about $14 million. TLF has raised about $3.7 million in the last 2 years combined (and part of that may just be Sardar's personal money). In the prospectus filed in connection with the sale of Biglari Capital, he assumed "a conservative capital infusion of $50 million over five years". Oops. They also said, "Mr. Biglari and the acquisition of BCC are vital to fulfilling the Company's plans to enlarge its asset management division". Double oops.He's also hasn't been able to close on a single wholly-owned company. I guess he changed the name to "Biglari Holdings" because he knew it would just hold the companies that Biglari was already involved in.I'll grant you that the turnaround at SNS was impressive, but I don't know how much of that was Sardar. If he gets credit for turning around SNS, then he should get the blame for Western Sizzlin stores...how many of those have closed in the last 5 years?
I don't use EBITDA so the 8% isn't relevant to me.I do think the stock is investable with the FCF and FMV of securities at the right price. $350 is my right price.In this market I am focused less on growth (other than Apple) and more on finding companies that trade at 10X FCF.Best to all.
Thank you for a good and thoughtful analysis. It is rare on yahoo and I tend to agree with you.However, I think people are skeptical of Biglari because he is an as-ho-le. He is selfish and arrogant.I think one needs to combine the two concepts - cheap stock maybe on FCF basis, decent investments/cash balance at the parent, and the ah-le factor. My margin of safety leads me to a buy price lower than today's price but I agree the stock has a good future.

Transit services for those in need in the community are becoming much more comprehensive due to the Turlock City Council's approval of an agreement with a new firm to sell advertising on local buses, the revenue of which allows the City to provide transit tickets to local nonprofits and the Turlock Unified School District.
When Mayor Matt Beekman took the microphone Monday evening to deliver his State of the City address at the Hughson City Council meeting, he had one piece of news of which not all mayors can boast: the City's General Fund reserves are at 83 percent.
Transit services for those in need in the community could become much more comprehensive pending the Turlock City Council's approval of an agreement with a new firm to sell advertising on local buses. The revenue from the sale of bus ads allows the City to provide transit tickets to local nonprofits and the Turlock Unified School District.
While a City of Turlock workshop held Tuesday had citizens and council members alike lamenting the poor quality of roads in town, in a positive twist of fate just two days later the City was notified that it received a grant of $105,550 from the Department of Resources Recycle and Recovery, or CalRecycle.
The Stanislaus Water Advisory Committee convened for their first meeting of 2015 Tuesday morning to discuss taking steps towards establishing a Groundwater Sustainability Agency, one component of the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act that was passed in 2014 to allow regional control of local groundwater resources.
It's public opinion shared by many in Turlock that the roads are in poor condition, but on Tuesday evening Director of Development Services Michael Pitcock enlightened the community on just how bad the streets really are.
What was meant to be a celebration of President Barack Obama's new expansion of programs for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals transformed into a call to action after a federal court ruled late Monday night to block the president's executive action that would extend present DACA laws.
'Carpe diem' was the spirit of Mayor Gary Soiseth's first State of the City address, which set forth several new developments in the next year all aimed at engaging the public, especially the youth.
California State University, Stanislaus and the City of Turlock are joining forces to improve Crowell Road, which borders the college, in order to create a safer environment for pedestrians and drivers alike.
A 24 year partnership between the City of Turlock and the Chamber of Commerce to operate the Convention and Visitors Bureau, which is tasked with bringing tourists to town, has come to an end after the Chamber submitted a letter of termination on Tuesday.
In the words of Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors Chairman Terry Withrow, "The state of our county is strong," but that did not keep the chairman from emphasizing two long term goals in his State of the County address last week: water and a stronger family network.
Those long waiting times at the Stockton Veteran Affairs Clinic might soon be a thing of the past.
While the community surrounding Crowell Elementary School has been developed for years, nine new homes could be built on Hawkeye Avenue pending the Turlock City Council's approval on Tuesday.
The City of Turlock Development Services is looking into purchasing electronic plan checking software that would allow applicants to upload building plans automatically which would not only streamline the process, but also eliminate the impact that the expensive plans have on the environment.
The City of Turlock presently takes its solid waste to Merced County but is hoping to achieve an agreement with the Stanislaus County to begin a new pact that would keep the service in Turlock's home county.
The good news is the City of Turlock's deficit spending in the 2015-16 fiscal year was $200,000 less than the almost $400,000 ...
While Turlock has experienced a rare wet spring, the City's water woes are far from over. In fact, Turlock has seen a significant reduction ...

I've never been very worried about a little mess but when LO was born I decided to start making a concerted effort to keep the house clean for his sake. My parent's house was very dirty growing up, to the point were I didn't invite friends over because I was embarrassed. I wouldn't want my children to go through that. So I've been cleaning on a daily basis, every day do the dishes and sweep up, every couple of days mop and scrub down bathroom, that sort of thing and I've been happy with the results.
My husband and I both work full time but he has a much more stressful job (he works in a group home for troubled teenagers, I am a baker) so I don't mind taking on the bulk of the cleaning. He takes out the trash, does the laundry, picks up after himself and LO and takes care of LO while I'm at work. I am happy with his contribution.
The problem is this last week I seem to have lost my motivation. The cat litter stinks, the dishes are piling up, and I don't care and I don't know why. I'm starting to worry about depression, but I feel happy most of the time, just lazy and tired. What should I do?

This information will help you improve your sleep when you are at home.
Sleeping well at night can make you feel better and give you more energy. Some people with cancer experience problems with their sleep, including:
- Feeling sleepy during the day
- Having trouble falling asleep
- Waking up in the middle of the night
If you are having these problems, try the following suggestions.
During the Day
- Do some form of exercise each day, but not within 2 to 3 hours before bedtime.
Get some sunlight
- Make an effort to get some sunlight each day, especially in the morning. Open your shades or go outside.
Limit your napping
- Taking naps in the late afternoon can make it harder for you to fall asleep at night.
- If you feel you must take a nap, take it earlier in the day and set an alarm to wake you up after 30 minutes.
Keep track of your sleep
- Keep a record of the times you go to sleep (including naps) and wake up (including during the night). This can help you notice any patterns on the nights you have problems with your sleep.
Ask about treatments
- Ask your doctor or nurse about treatments available to improve your sleep, including behavioral therapy. This can be effective without the use of medication.
- Meet with a sleep specialist at the MSK Counseling Center. You can contact the center at 646-888-0200.
- The MSK Integrative Medicine Service offers relaxation therapies that may help you sleep better. You can contact the service at 646-888-0800 or go to: www.mskcc.org/cancer-care/integrative-medicine
At Bedtime
Dim the lights
- Light tells your brain to stay awake, so dimming it will help your body get ready to sleep. Turn off any bright lights and use low-watt light bulbs (including in the bathroom) in the evening.
- Limit your time in front of the computer, TV, or video game. Dim the screen if possible.
Limit food and drinks
- Avoid caffeine and nicotine several hours before bedtime. They can both keep you awake.
- Limit your intake of alcohol. It may help you fall asleep, but it can make you wake up in the middle of the night.
- Finish eating dinner at least 3 hours before you want to go to sleep.
- Limit liquids before bedtime, especially if you often get up at night to urinate.
Make your bedroom comfortable
- Keep the bedroom quiet, dark, and cool. If you cannot make your bedroom dark, use a sleep mask.
- If noise is a problem, try earplugs or white noise such as a CD with ocean sounds.
- Switch to a heavier or lighter blanket as the seasons change.
- Do not watch TV, use the computer, or talk on the phone while lying on your bed. Use your bed only for sleep and sexual activity.
- Avoid letting pets sleep in your bedroom because their movements may wake you up.
Take time to relax each evening before going to sleep. Try any of the following:
- Deep breathing exercises
- Meditation
- Massage
- Listening to music
- Reading
- A warm bath
Ease your mind
- If you can't get your mind off of your worries, make a list of things you are worried about. Then, write down what you can do to decrease that worry. For example, you may ask your doctor about a symptom or talk about your fears with a friend or family member. Tell yourself that you will do those things the next day.
- Turn your clocks around. Staring at the clock can keep you awake and worried.
- Do not lie in bed awake. Feeling anxious about not being able to sleep can make it harder to fall asleep. If you are still awake after 20 minutes, get up and do a relaxing activity until you feel sleepy.
If you have to get up in the middle of the night, be safe
- Make sure the floor is clear of objects, including clothes and area rugs.
- Use nightlights in the bathroom and hall.
- Keep a glass of water, a phone, and a lamp by your bed in case you need them.
Stick with a routine
- Go to bed at the same time each evening and get up at the same time in the morning, even on the weekends.
Deep Breathing Exercise
Deep breathing is an exercise that can help you relax. It is very simple and you can teach it to yourself. It can help you clear your mind, release tension, and sleep better. You can do it any time you feel stressed or anxious.
- Get into a comfortable position in a chair or in your bed. Raise your head as much as possible.
- Place one hand on your stomach, just below your ribs. If you are right handed, use your right hand; if you are left handed, use your left hand.
- Exhale completely through your mouth.
- If you can, close your eyes and inhale slowly and deeply through your nose. Feel your stomach push up on your hand. Imagine that air is filling your whole body from the bottom up.
- Pause for a couple of seconds. Then, exhale slowly through your mouth or nose. Try to exhale completely and imagine the air leaving your lungs, mouth, or nose.
- As you exhale, allow your body to relax and go limp—like a rag doll.
- Repeat the exercise 5 to 10 times.
If you have any questions or concerns, talk with a member of your healthcare team. You can reach them Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm at ____________________. After 5:00 pm, during the weekend, and on holidays, please call____________________. If there's no number listed, or you're not sure, call 212-639-2000.

Brazil Drugs
The government of Brazil says it will start making cheap copies of a patented AIDS drug — without the patent-holder's permission. Brazil has been threatening to break drug patents for years, but this is the first time it's followed through on the threat. NPR's Martin Kaste reports from Rio de Janeiro.

San Diego restaurants: Critics' picks
The Superdiners join the U-T's food writer in naming delicious names
"I have always held a place in my heart for Café Chloe (721 Ninth Ave., East Village. 619-232-3242 or cafechloe.com). It has so much charm, style and food that satisfies the soul. My wife and have been going for years and will continue to go for years!" — William Bradley, executive chef at Addison
"Shirahama (4212 Convoy St., Kearny Mesa. 858-650-3578 or sushidokoro-shirahama.com). I know. I've said this over and over. It's the best. Every detail is considered. From the impeccable rice to the extensive sake list. The best. — Anthony Schmidt, bartender at Noble Experiment
"Brooklyn Girl (4033 Goldfinch Ave., Mission Hills. 619-296-4600 or brooklyngirleatery.com). A snappy, lively, refreshing addition to San Diego's cafe scene. A must-go." — Gary W. Schons, local prosecutor, avid diner
"George's at the Cove. With breathtaking views, stylish interior and chef Trey Foshee's use of local produce and products in his always creative menu, George's remains my overall favorite place to eat in our city. Owner George Hauer continues to create a sophisticated dining experience without it being "stuffy." And, of course, you've got a tiered choice of dining on the more casual Ocean Terrace or George's elegant main room, California Modern." — Charles Kaufman, baker, owner of Bread & Cie Café
"Very few San Diego restaurants offer consistently great food and service. My pick has to be Mille Fleurs (6009 Paseo Delicias, Rancho Santa Fe. 858-756-3085 or millefleurs.com), the setting is beautiful, RSF village is gorgeous, service is always pushed to perfection, and chef Martin Woesle always serves up excellent and tasty food. Substance over hype!" — Fabrice Poigin, private chef, restaurant consultant
"The design of Herringbone (7837 Herschel Ave., La Jolla. 858-459-0221 or herringboneeats.com) is one of San Diego's best. Give me a 200-year-old olive tree under which I can dine and I am there with my credit card. American Express, raise the limit, please." — J. Dean Loring, co-owner of Burger Lounge
"The "best" is the whole package, and despite all the wonderful options in town, I choose The Marine Room (2000 Spindrift Drive, La Jolla. 858-459-7222 or marineroom.com) as my all-around favorite restaurant of San Diego. Bernard Guillas, Ron Oliver and all their flying pans (the name of their cookbook, hence a sly reference) deliver an extraordinary experience. It's a special-occasion place, and it's a locals place. Go in for a beautifully prepared degustation or coursed tasting menu. Waves crashing against the windows during high tide are a spectacular reminder that we share everything, even our dining pleasures, with Nature." — Tina Luu, pastry chef, food lecturer at the Art Institute of California San Diego
"My top choice goes to Davanti Enoteca in Little Italy (1655 India St. 619-237-9606 or davantisandiego.com). The quality has been consistently high. I enjoy their unpretentious, energetic vibe and magical outdoor patio. Whether it's for a quick midweek meal or a special birthday dinner, I've never been disappointed with Davanti." — Susan Russo, food writer, cookbook author (Twitter @Susan_Russo)
"The changes that Paul McCabe has made at Delicias have renewed that restaurant. The prior menu was consistent, but a bit boring, and he has livened it up with the new décor and his delicious, constantly changing menu." — Randee Stratton, real estate broker, avid diner
"I always come back to Café Chloe. This unique little cafe isn't the newest, biggest, loudest or named after a fabric, but it is consistent, comfortable and delightful, and Katie Grebow's creative dishes are always delicious. It's not unusual to see a variety of people, from young couples on a first date or newlyweds to friends enjoying a glass of wine along with the daily cheese plate. Café Chloe provides a comfortable environment, where people are people, conversations take place, and good food is good food." — David Salisbury, a law firm's director of business development, avid diner

Three studies showed that drivers leaving a public parking space are territorial even when such behavior is contrary to their goal of leaving. In Study 1 (observations of 200 departing cars), intruded-upon drivers took longer to leave than nonintruded-upon drivers. In Study 2, an experiment involving 240 drivers in which level of intrusion and status of intruder were manipulated, drivers took longer to leave when another car was present and when the intruder honked. Males left significantly sooner when intruded upon by a higher rather than lower status car, whereas females' departure times did not differ as a function of the status of the car. There was evidence that distraction might explain some of this effect. In Study 3, individuals who had parked at a mall were asked about how they would react to intruders. Compared to what they believed other people would do, respondents said they would leave faster if the car were just waiting for them to leave but they would take longer to leave if the driver in the car honked at them.

On Babcock/Webb fall and winter are the time to hunt for deer, feral hog, and quail. A quail hunt is held on the Field Trail area each year in January. Quail hunters should carefully review related subjects in the Hunting Regulations. Hiking, biking, and horseback riding are likely to be most pleasant in late fall, winter and early spring. In the winter a variety of warblers as well as American woodcocks and common snipes are found on the area.
In the spring the rare beautiful pawpaw and other wildflowers bloom in the pine flatwoods. During the summer rainy season, a majority of the area is likely to be flooded.
Hunters must comply with all hunting regulations

The goal of this project is to use pipes and forks to execute a line-count utility already written in a multi-process manner (one process per argument). I'm currently working on getting a single process working before expanding to handle multiple args.
Given two executables,
lc1 and
lc2, I want
lc2 to establish a pipe to the stdout file descriptor of
lc1, so that when
execlp("lc1", argv[1], NULL) is called, the output will be read in by
while ((c= read(pipefd[0], readin, SIZE)) > 0)
According to my Unix book, I should use the open, dup2, close method for redirecting stdout to stdin, and here's my code:
int pid, c, i;
char *readin= (char *)malloc(sizeof(SIZE));
if (pipe(pipefd)== -1)
perror("Can't open a pipe\n");
for (i=1; i< argc; i++){
if ((pid= fork())==-1)
perror("Can't fork\n");
//close pipe
if (dup2(pipefd[0], 0)==-1)
perror("Can't redirect stdin");
for (i=1; i< argc; i++){
if ((wait(NULL))== -1)
perror("Wait error");
while ((c= read(pipefd[0], readin, SIZE)) > 0){;
//print buf count
total += atoi(readin);
The run function is
void run(char *f){
int fp;
if ((fp= open(f, O_RDONLY)) == -1)
perror("Can't open the file");
dup2(pipefd[1], 1);
execlp("ls1", f, NULL);
When I try to execute this code, I get a stdin redirect error saying bad file descriptor. Why is this happening, and would appreciate any hints to for fixing.

Noted lyricist-writer-filmmaker Gulzar Friday lit the lamp to open the second edition of the Ladakh International Film Festival (LIFF) here in Jammu and Kashmir Friday in the presence of other film icons, ministry dignitaries and officials. However, Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, who was slated to be present here, couldn't make it.
Jammu and Kashmir urban development minister Nawang Rigzin Jora, Leh Chief Executive Councillor Rigzin Spalbar, and Abdali, Afghanistan's ambassador to India, were present along with LIFF jury chair Aparna Sen, patrons Vishal Bharadwaj, Rekha Bhardwaj, filmmaker Rakesh Omprakash Mehra, and National Award winning Marathi actress Usha Jadhav among others here.
"Our chief minister was supposed to be here in the morning, but he couldn't come because the collateral damage from the concert (Zubin Mehta's recent concert) still preoccupies him. There is curfew in a few districts," Jora said in his keynote address.
The opening ceremony was held at the Sindhu Sanskriti Auditorium nestled between barren mountains in the virgin beauty of Leh. The otherwise quiet environment was bustling with police officials, film enthusiasts, festival patrons, guests and government officials.
Gulzar, whose works will be showcased in a retrospective curated by talented filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj, was in awe of the destination, and said he hopes that the "highest altitude film festival" also serves movies which are of "high standards".
He said he was happy to be "in such a beautiful destination in such a beautiful valley and among such beautiful people". His directorial venture "Mere Apne" is due to be screened at the fest, and Gulzar said he was as nervous about its screening as he was when the movie was first due for release.
LIFF was launched in 2012. The three-day festival is likely to screen around 120 short films, feature films and documentaries. A major highlight is the green carpet premiere of international documentary filmmaker Teri McLuhan's "Frontier Gandhi".

Has Mazda hit the jackpot again? The MX-5 Roadster has been the torch bearer for the company for the last two decades but here is a Mazda that panders to people who demand more than mere driving thrills – and they're much harder to please.
The Mazda CX-5 has dimensions that put it close to compact SUV territory but that's no bad thing if you need interior space. Its big boot takes care of luggage and the CX-5's cabin is both well equipped and solidly constructed. And while we're not sold on the exterior styling, after a turn behind the wheel it's hard not to be impressed.
Not only does its manual gearbox share the slick the feel and sporty feel of the MX-5 but its clever Sky-Active engine technology does wonders for fuel economy, without sacrificing performance.

Northeast Kingdom gets foreign trade zone designation
ST. JOHNSBURY The Northeast Kingdom has been granted a special foreign trade zone designation that backers hope will drive more economic development for the region.
The designation is expected to benefit two foreign companies planning to set up shop in Newport as part of a regional economic development initiative, AnC Bio Vermont and Menck Window Systems, which are expected to create hundreds of jobs in Newport, but other companies in the region could also benefit.
Other companies anywhere in the region that import materials for local production could qualify for breaks on tariffs and taxes in the foreign trade zone. For example, they would be able to import materials, assemble the products and then ship them out of the country again, said David Snedeker of the Northeastern Vermont Development Association.
Its like it never came into the country, Snedeker said.
The designation is intended to expedite and encourage foreign commerce.
Newport Mayor Paul Monette said hes pleased.
It is another economic tool which will help attract and maintain businesses in the Northeast Kingdom, Monette said.MORE IN Vermont NewsThe Vermont Agency of Transportation has decided to yank a new seat belt safety ad from the...

How Do We Know the Truth?
Historical Documents
Historical records state that Perry's ships were made on the banks of Lake Erie from locally available timber: white and black oak, chestnut, and pine.
Mackenzie, Alexander Slidell. The Life of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry. New York: Harper & Brothers, 1840. 2 vols. P. 136.
Conservation Records
The frame was long thought to be made of mahogany. However, a 1999 cleaning and restoration revealed that it is constructed of walnut. Neither walnut nor mahogany were recorded as being used to construct Perry's ships.
Historical Timeline
A timeline of historical events shows that both ships Perry used during the battle were at the bottom of Lake Erie when the frame was made.
1813 - September 10, the Battle of Lake Erie is fought.
1815 - Perry's flagship, U.S. Brig Lawrence, is intentionally sunk by the U.S. Navy at Misery Bay, Lake Erie.
1820 - The ship to which Perry transferred his flag, U.S. Brig Niagara, is intentionally sunk by the U.S. Navy at Misery Bay.
1836 - Lawrence is briefly raised for examination, and then re-sunk. There is no record that any wood was removed from the ship.
1873 - William Henry Powell completes Battle of Lake Erie at a temporary studio in the U.S. Capitol.

Families looking for books to read before a snowstorm hits or who want to learn how to make a craft as a way to beat the winter blues often go to the same place: a public library.
While library workers say summer is by far their busiest time, winter months sometimes see a jump in attendance at family and children programs and in families checking out books because of the weather or to pass the time during school breaks.
"We can tell when people are locked in for a few days," said Linda Messick, head of children's service at Greenwood Public Library. "Maybe we are like the grocery stores, when bad weather is coming, they come in for extra materials."
Some library branches try to plan around the cold weather to make the library a destination for families who want a place to go.
Kids and adults can win prizes for reading books at winter reading programs in February. Crafts and other activities entice families to come in during the winter.
While summer reading programs are more popular, winter reading programs are gaining traction with families, with 1,500 people signing up across the county, said Sarah Taylor, branch manager for the Franklin branch of the Johnson County Public Library.
"(Families) are looking for a place to go where they can burn off some energy without going outside," she said.
With February being cold and gray, a winter reading program is attractive to families who want something to do, said Beth Yates, children services manager at the White River Township branch.
"Sometimes people just want to curl up during the month of February," Yates said. "We like to give them an opportunity to have something to do during the winter."
Part of the boost in attendance could be attributed to lack of programming earlier in winter, library workers said. Most programming at local libraries is scaled back during the holidays and resumes this month.
After a long break after the holidays and especially before a snowstorm, sometimes more people will frequent the children's section of the library. They will check out more, too.
"We see people who take out armfuls of books," Messick said.
On the other hand, story times and craft programs don't see seasonal swings. Those programs often are full no matter what the time of year, Messick said.
Librarians try new programs throughout the year to get people in the library, Taylor said.
"We try to think of new things," she said. "We have programming every single week."

Restaurant Qui in Austin, Texas is 'GQ' magazine's top eatery in the United States this year.
The magazine has named 25 eateries in the United States that are worth visiting.
A fine dining restaurant that cross-pollinates Asian and Texan influences and distills them onto plates like taco of sea eel, scrambled eggs, trout roe and kale has been named the best US restaurant of 2014 by GQ magazine.
In the March issue of the US title, influential food writer Alan Richman pronounced Austin's (Texas) Restaurant Qui the best of 25 eateries in the country, calling chef Paul Qui the "most fearless chef in America" as well as the most confident.
"Qui's talent is prodigious, and his food is filled with both subtle shadings and sheer sensationalism," Richman writes, pointing to inventive and bold flavour pairings like Filipino dinuguan, a pork-blood stew with mushrooms and meat, with potato gnocchi.
In homage to Texas, locally raised Wagyu rib-eye and dry-aged cote de boeuf are also on the menu, while beef tartare is spiced with kimchi.
Rounding out the top three spots are Trois Mec in Los Angeles, described as a "little piece of Paris in an LA strip mall" and a Japanese seafood restaurant in Portland, Oregon called Roe.
Here are the top 12 of 25 outstanding restaurants, according to Richman:
1. Qui (Austin, Texas) — "Tasty Texan and uplifted Asian cooking on the other side of Austin."
2. Trois Mec (Los Angeles, California) — "A little piece of Paris in an LA strip mall."
3. Roe (Portland, Oregon) — "A mostly seafood Japanese gem, hiding in plain sight behind another mostly seafood spot."
4. Carbone (New York, New York) — "The Little Italy – style joint you dreamed of discovering, right down to the veal parm."
5. King + Duke (Atlanta, Georgia) — "Where there's smoke, there's grilling, as all-American as a slab of swordfish."
6. Husk (Nashville, Tennessee) — "Pork, oysters, grits, bourbon – all the best of southern cooking, elevated to a new level."
7. Gunshow (Atlanta, Georgia) — "They come bearing food, one cook after another – nobody can resist so much charm."
8. Orsa & Winston (Los Angeles, California) — "Everything imaginable – plus Uruguayan rice."
9. Dover (Brooklyn, New York) — "The re-invigouration of fine dining for a new kind of customer."
10. Nico Osteria (Chicago, Ilinois) — "Sometimes all you want is Italian food, exactly what you love."
11. Sir And Star At The Olema (Olema, California) — "A coastal bounty of old-fashioned taste."
12. Bar Sajor (Seattle, Washington) — "Laid-back but sophisticated – a damn good place for a romantic night."

Printing for competition
Hi all! Has anyone done any prints for competition before? My print lab does the competition printing except I've only printed straightforward portraits for clients before. Is the matting around the images usually a standard amount, up to each photog based on what suites the image or something else? Any input would be appreciated!

text: I am so disappointed. I have reached skype support various times, and when over 20 moments get hung up on via visit and overlooked via message. I have 2 skype units-unlimited US and Canada, and the mobile/phone #Voicemail comes unhindered with the unlimited idea. I incapacitate it since I don't need it. However it still responses all my unanswered calls. This is a tremendous situation. Support declares "cross out your subscription" and it will quit addressing. I cannot get the support individual to heighten this issue. It is plausible it has something to do with the way that I utilize a google voice number, but being there is no canned reaction about google voice, we never weigh in on this. Has anybody else successfully impaired voicemail with the goal that it makes a point not to capture your missed phone calls?

During the conference of JavaFX 2.0 . Some of the Oracle member staff of JavaFX have given demo of JavaFX running inside I Pad, Android phones. The deal of oracle with Apple is still in progress. So currently I don't think there is any fixed decision of running Javafx inside all mobile phones. But as per the javafx roadmap the JavaFX is intended to be mostly for Tablet Device than phones. 'Multi-touch', 'Accelerator' and many other features are on the pending for developing of JavaFX still .
