I need basic help on using WordPress to create pages in subdirectories. I used to create HTML in Dreamweaver. I then dabbled with WordPress online version. I am now learning the full WordPress system with 2.2 (yes i know 2.3 just came out but not going there yet).
I am using the "Cutline 3-Column Split 11" theme. That theme has top menu links to Archives and About. I don't know how to create those subdirectory pages using the WordPress system. I can go into FTP (using BlueHost btw) and create the Archive and About directories, but I dont know how to populate those directories with a page from my WordPress program. This sounds like it should be easy enough to do, but i can't figure it out. Help please.

Item was shipped fast. After opening the box, the downpipe looked beautiful. Nice welds all around and was even supplied w/gaskets (however I would have liked the gasket that goes from the exhaust manifold to the downpipe to have "ears." This would have helped w/installation). Nevertheless, installation was quick and simple. 4 bolts along w/replacing the O2 sensor. What I love most about this product is that it eliminated the "U Bend" that the stock downpipe had. Do not regret spending $500.

No Lottery for Bucks!!
I was rather surprised to learn that there is no Lottery in Maine for Bucks! I knew there was for a Doe, and for Moose.
Why not the Bucks? Over-abundance? Folks don't like the meat because it's too gamey or tough?
There are, of course, those folks who go "trophy" hunting (not that I don't understand putting a huge rack on the wall, as impressive as that can be), who will WANT a Buck.
Any idea why Bucks would not have a Lottery?

from a valuation perspective, telstra on a pe of over 16 times looks stretched. the only reason people are ploughing into it is its 7.9% grossed up yield. without the franking, no one would touch it.
Sure they are making money in mobile, but the CEO forgot to mention they are bleeding money in sensis and fixed line.
not to mention the NBN plans will change with coalition.

No Bookmakers on the honesty and ethics list! Ah, poor old Tommy Waterhouse.
banking bubble??? twits what bubble.
the big 4 are behaving perfectly well again today!
I need some advice. Currently, I buy my life insurance via my super and I am paying $117.00 per year. Now the polllies is telling me to pay more than $300 levy for somebody else Insurance. Is JG going to put additional money into my insurance premium ? If I don't pay more insurance, my dependent will qestion me why I pay more to somebody else insurance, My super doesn't earn enough to pay for additional insurance, what should I do ?
Per year or per month?
Death, disability, income protection as a minimum for good income earner should be near $117 per month if you fund them through super for a decent level of cover.
Change your Super Fund. Many (others) have a modest rate of return these days.
@FromTheEast - Awwww. You have to pay $300 per yr for a societal good. Poor you :-(( Have a hug *HUGGGGGG* /end sarcasm
OK ....... I'll bite is that you PFTW
My interest for COH is rising!!!
That will happen when you borrow to invest in a downward trending stock. (See what I did there!).
GDY has increased by 50% today but no one at SMH business seems to have noticed that.
It's a penny stock with no earnings. That's probably why. It was higher 4 months ago than today. Hot Copper is probably a better place for you to go.
I remain amazed each day at the amount of criticism of the Fed QE package that is seen - you can roll out the 'money printing' tyrade all you like but it doesn't make it wrong as opposed to the alternative. Choose Ireland or Greece to see the outcome if the austerity fans get their way. Runaway debt is not the answer but clipping the economy while it's already been on the receiving end of a beatdown isn't the answer either.
if they let the recession pan out as it needed to, it would have gotten rid of the dead wood and things would have probably recovered by now imho.
Not really. The problem with Greece is that they are locked into the Euro currency shackles, which means that their currency is now hugely overvalued and they become uncompetitive.
There is also no credibility in a country where nobody is prepared to pay any tax and the low birthrate guarantees that the country will collapse in the future - regardless of economic policy.
As you say on the common currency - it's the thing that undermines the ability of some Euro nations to properly engage monetary policy. When the big dog of the group needs to be raising rates they aren't going to let you lower yours.
QE has no effect on the underlying economy. its only blowing bubbles in the Real estate and sharemarkets (only industrial stocks) worldwide, at the moment. All data since 2008, none have recovered, and some economies are even worse. If they let the US housing correct properly, the financial industry would be insolvent and Wall st would be bankrupt(which is a major lobbying power of political groups)
I think Warren Short Term Trading has nailed it!!!
I am yet to be convinced that gold is dead and buried. I have lived in SE Asia for a few years and everyone buys gold. Many Asians are class orientated and owning gold lifts their status in the community. I am not one to buy bullion but you can't argue with the masses and China and India are the big buyers. You only have to be in Thailand for a few days when the price drops. Gold shops get sold out very quickly. Admitedly my assessment is only made on observation, but the same observation made me buy WOW at $8 and CBA at $5.40 when first floated
with all due respect, How old r u mate ???
What are you saying?? Young or old?? They both floated in the '90s - it's not like he was saying he bought Union Pacific in the float.
The bull run is not over, in 2008 it corrected from $1014 to $681 in a short time period, a 33% correction.
The previous high $1921 to the low $1334 has been a 32% correction.
Personally I hope the tree gets shaken a little harder, gold sub 1300 would be great, but it would not last long @ those low levels.
Nice irrelevent question Murali (aka CeylonPsych) A more relevant question is did you follow my advice when you asked about SBM earlier in the week. I recommended you get rid of SBM and buy BDR. Now be a good boy and concentrate on the things that matter...and keep that elbow straight....haha
I was 8 when they floated, missed that chance ... no? The good thing I will be observing a correcting which is always entertaining.
There are plenty of cheap stocks out there, figuring out if they will be the next CBA is the hard thing
Just got a note from my financial advisor (from a big 4 bank). He is certain budget will raise GST to 12.5% then to 15% within 12-24 months.
What a shock, a broke bunch of thieves in Canberra realize they're just a profligate as anyone else, who'd have thunk they'd just steal more? I thought politicians were such nice guys???
chinese whisper or fact?
The credibility of numbers such as employment have always been a major issue. As an example, in USA Today it was reported that the jobless rate fell in over 90% of US cities. Good news? Unfortunately not...the fall was due to more people simply giving up looking for work [ie lower participation rate] and no longer being considered unemployed, as against more people finding work!!!
I also understand, that they are moving as many unemployed people off unemployment welfare payments and onto 'disability' payments [through a broad definition of 'disability'] which do not get included in the official unemployment numbers. What a joke!!!!!
You may be interested to know that the unemployment figures are calculated by interviewing a statistically random sample of the population and understanding their working situation. That's it. I've been selected in the past to be part of this. Very open to error.
Money Man................on the money once more.
Welfare use is going through the roof though, which explains why so many give up looking for work.
The Boston-bombers family was pocketing around 100K per year in welfare...
Exactly. US Govt is now spending $2 for every $1 in income because of the welfare handouts. I believe that the US government is now paying welfare support [including unemployment benefits] to over 89,000,000 people. The Fed Reserve knows this, and is propping up the government through its money printing program. Talk about a deck of cards just waiting to collapse!!!...and economic editors in Australia have the gall to say that all is rosy in the USA!!!!!
The Federal Reserve will do anything in their power to keep the Democrats in power. The Republicans have - after two decades of talk - finally decided it's time to audit the bank. Something that the Democrats are not yet prepared to do. When people find out what's going on in that bank they will demand that the whole thing is abolished.
So what will happen when the foreign investors pull the pin on the banks, funnel into other industries or withdraw from the asx completely? The only way anyone could've made money in the last 6 months is by only buying into banks so what do the rest of the punters get once the bank bubble bursts?
I think there are still some really good opportunities in the emerging markets. Also, Europe might present some really good investments right now (cheap vs value) but one has to do one's diligent research/homework. Personally I'm heading there in a few short weeks to check it out.
You could have easily made money in telcos and health stocks in the last 6 months.
Like I said earlier. ASX back at 4200. 3800 if the world keeps the decline into full blow recessions and then after that who knows. War?
Have a look at WES and LLC over the last 6 months...
February our market lost 118 points Feb 21 I think when Chinese figs came out. Then in March when the Chinese figures came out we lost 102 points more losses today. If this keeps up we'll be back to zero by December. Oh well at least we can start from the beginning.
Unbelievable ASX 200 manages to lose every time the Dow loses. Since Oct 09 the ASX has managed in percentage terms to go down as much as the Dow and at the same time has gone up 200 points while the Dow has gone up 4700. Yest Dow up ASX down Today Dow down ASX down Sounds like an add for Coles.
Because we are not printing hundreds of billions to pump up stock. If QE fails - KABOOM.
QE did fail. The Dow/S&P etc. went down last night. Apparently Bernanke and the FOMC didn't get the memo that stocks never go down!
.... and mining continues it's decent in to the abyss. Maybe my 8% down by June will be more like 12% down... for mining. Where will the banks end up in the next 10 business days???
BKL becoming very attractive!
what is the reason it in freefall at the moment?
1) lack of liquidity
2) people worried about increasing competition and squeezed margins
3) Perceived slow down in countries looking to expand into?
Just be very careful with this market. I'm seeing a lot of strong stocks struggling to deliver sustainable rallies and many solid red trend bars which could suggest yield chasers are thinning out, so be very careful. How long this will trend down is anybody's guess.
I do believe the RBA will do all in it's powers to keep the market heading North.
Further interest rate cuts I hear you say ?
Wont that P off the grey generation and those struggling to save for a home.
At what price does Kingsgate become a takeover target? Assuming anyone wants it.
Kingsgate has falling in half since mid-march. Expect it to continue to fall if Goldman Sach and Genereal Societe have it right that gold is on the way to $1150-1250 oz.
Incredible! Let's not have a disability scheme, let's make sure the money is spent in his shop instead. Can he hear himself?

LNP government with a mandate after Sep 14 may actually adopt the current NBN design and fast track it to their own interests. Business groups have been vocal about which design is right so they can change their mind once they are governing.
It is all politics at present.
Time for old school Bernie Brooks to go as CEO. He has been fortunate to earn a good living at Myer, but has shown zero social skills and very low empathy rating. This fool is destroying share holder value at Myer, time is up Bernie.
Incredible! Let's not have a disability scheme, let's make sure the money is spent in his shop instead. Can he hear himself?
Viking I agree and posted to this effect yesterday, however the shareholders that have panicked and sold down nearly 9% over two days surely show the nitwittry of the average holder and the average broker. Yes his comments were less than sensible but should really have been taken for what they were, jockying for position and political tom foolery. In this case the brokers are again raking in commissions by allowing and pandering to their clients to panic..
I sincerely concur. Bernie should immediately go. He just does not have what it takes.
Sequestration ideological stupidity has hit demand in the USA and business has responded predictably by suspending plans. What drongos. Meanwhile in Australia's Ireland - aka Victoria - the drongos in the state chapter of madness, the Business Council - are demanding that the state double its tiny surplus. Right - what a state on the brink of recession needs, a precipitate further reduction in demand that could trigger a vicious downward cycle of retrenchment and demand. Great timing fellas! What they should be demanding is a an immediate overhaul of Melbourne's antiquated railway system that is literally crumbling under its massively increased patronage. But no, they're pushing for Melbourne's own version of Sydney's Cross City Tunnel fiasco - the East-West boondoggle demanded by the trucking magnates. Our business elite is utterly second rate. Nothing fundamental has changed since Donald Horne's ironic "The Lucky Country", 1964.
The problem is that business and employer groups never take a broader perspective.
What may be good for their own business (lower wages, increased immigration etc) is often bad for the economy as a whole (the result of lower wages is less consumer spending; the result of high immigration, without increased government spending to match, is infrastructure not coping - your example of Melbourne's trains is perfect))
So with regards to the US, do you suggest that they should continue to borrow money (in effect printing more money since nobody is stupid enough to lend them any more money at this point) rather than oversee their spending? The sequestration hasn't actually resulted in paying back money, just lowering the rate of borrowing. The debt ceiling will be reached soon again and that could lead to a downgrade.
The money printing press is not the answer my friend - responsible fiscal policy is.
They should have done a proper spend up on their crumbling infrastructure to kick start their economy It's no surprise their recovery was weak, because as has been pointed out repeatedly, the "stimulus" had been the weakest since the Great Depression. As for the hyperinflation we've been warned about by the Jeremiahs, where the hell is it?
C22 some things have changed.
Courtesy Howard Government/RBA delivered program of unaffordable housing there is a new class war going on.
Asset poor younger generation vs the "equity mate" Boomers. Younger generation spending all their available income on housing. No wonder they are shopping online.
LNP blueprint for the future is the implementation of casual rates and flexible work practices.
There should be never any ramification for wasteful government debt fueled spending I agree. The Keynesians and the MMT guys would love to spend, spend, spend and then tell their kids to pay off the debt..... great work.
I tell you what, i'll stimulate the economy if you lend me the money, and once you're broke i'll hit up the rest of your family for money. If you cannot afford to give me more then perhaps you can print me some and devalue the currency, that seems to have worked before....
Nobody except a few half-wits believe China's official figures, which were disappointing in any case.
How bad is the real story?
Judging from the less than stunning market reaction to China's figures i suspect that the market has also decided that their numbers are dodgy at the least and downright dishonest at most. The market here in Aus reacts to almost anything, look at Myer yesterday and today, but China's all too frequent announcements have entered the realm of the boy who cried wolf, or more appropriate for China man bites dog, territory.
Shhh, your talking about our entire business and political elite - you'll upset a tin gods.
If you don't believe the Chinese data, then what are you basing your opinions on? Gut feel? Lol!
Well the unemployment rates globally are fabricated as well. How many people are not working who want to be who refuse Centrelink? I would posit that the unemployment rate here in Australia is more likely at 20%.
Life is Good - the market is not logical ! if it were and if one could formulate policy based on fundamentals then the market would not survive. The evidence for any major impact from china data is confusing at best. Tody for instance is not related to china, it started yesterday and continued today. In fact it stabilised at a low before the bullshit from Gillards new friends.
My son used to call black, white, in other words he completely denied what he saw
He denied what happened

But it seems that here we have at least 30% of contributors , on this Blog, calling, Black,White
Simply denying the force of the market
Ok in their view, the Banks are overvalued, but for the majority, they clearly are not, or they, the majority would not be buying?
One does not buy a piece of crap Holden, does one, one buys what the market perceives as a good vehicle, an Audi , a Mondeo a Golf ,right?
So wake up people, climb upon the banks and push my fortune higher
For the first time in 13 years my, fortune has put on weight
Merci Mike,merci Gail,
Je suis contente, which should be easy nuff to translate
Morning all from sunny QLD which is, as they say, ten years and one hour adrift of the World
I think the market buys audi's and VW's because they are fashionable ATM. Definitely not bcoz of the quality.
Good on you stuarth44, me very happy for you and your fortune. As for the Audis, great cars, had two myself not long ago, now it's a Merc, but Audis are way cooler.
I am seeing them drop in price. I think most of the people commenting on banks are responding to the half-wit ideas that NAB is going to break the $40 barrier in coming weeks and that ANZ will push through $35. I guarantee that will not be the case and that after the dividends are paid the shares will shrink back down to around $31-33 NAB & $29-31 ANZ.
Dan - were they Matchbox cars?
Now now alfa75, grow up a bit. It ain't play school any longer.
I actually-wait for it, do not have a car here now . As I posted some weeks back, I am looking to relocate most of the year to Europe, get some money out of super, so the death tax is not such a big hit
Tell us then, where the money will go after the Ex? CBA TLS methinks Tomorrow is a big day. Wonder how WBC will go
The banks seem to be able to keep a lid on sensitive info as we saw by the shock the market got ANZwise
I used to have a 500se, but believe it or not, the Mondeo diesel wagon was a better car and one of the few Clarkson 5 starred
HMMM - he he ... wrong!
stuarth44, I have no idea what's going to happen after the Ex date, as for relocating to Europe for parts of the year, did you actually read my mind? A good move, I might see you there after end of May. Merc 500se, nice but too thirsty although I've heard (good) feedback about the Mondeos, personally never had one. Now I'm stuck with a C class, ok but a bit under-powered.
BGS and ICG should have a good crack early, VMG, today might be the day and BOL should make up ground. Nice ann. on ORS, a buy on open
BGS, Gap at this level, then 4.5c tomorrow,
then 5c all time high,
Blue Sky Baby
BGS was 9c stock once? 5c all time high???
PS - You need to call something that has not already broken through? I think you are the SMH professional ramper! But good one if you are holding all of these rising stocks. I never had much luck with pennies.

It's rare, but every once in a while a celebrity tweet breaks through the white noise of the Internet and makes you sit up and take notice like a shih tzu hearing a dog whistle. Take this one from Will Ferrell's FunnyorDie.com cohort Adam McKay yesterday: "Are we currently working on a Step Bros rap album? Yup."
Now, if you're a fan of that 2008 Ferrell-John C. Reilly comedy (which McKay wrote and directed), this seems too good to be true. After all, their fake video for "Boats n Hoes" was hip hop gold – and easily the best thing in the movie. But a whole album from the good folks at Prestige Worldwide? Come on. This is a joke right? Well, two hours later, McKay uncorked a follow-up tweet: "I wasn't kidding about Step Bros rap album. And we just found out we have a crazy big time producer. Mos Def, you up for a guest flow?"
When reached for comment, Ferrell's publicist didn't deny the accuracy of the Twitter tease. Which, frankly, is good enough for us. Because we'd kill for more rhymes like this one: "Put on your life vests, let's drop anchor/ There's a nice lady, I'd like to spank her." Until then, though, why not check out the (NSFW) "Boats n Hoes" clip below and let us know how you feel about Dale and Brennan dropping some more old-school science.

Magazine Actually Claims Harris County Can Govern Itself
Reporter John Mecklin worked a long time in Houston for the old Post; he also served as an editor at the SF Weekly, the San Francisco paper in our very own Village Voice Media chain.
He's now editor at a magazine called Miller-McCune, a publication started by a Southern California philanthropist; the magazine's motto is "Turning Research Into Solutions."
Mecklin spent enough time in Houston to become extremely cynical about county government here, so he's as surprised as anyone, it seems, with his latest article: a glowing love letter about how Harris County officeholders are working across the aisle to get things done.
It's a development that I wouldn't believe had I not seen and heard it myself: In a government once ruled by outlandish power politics, county officials are working together on matters of public interest -- from jail overcrowding to improved mental health care to ethics enforcement -- that could almost be seen as a common reform agenda.
He does caution that "the change shouldn't be overstated," but Mecklin goes on to describe the partnership of new County Attorney (and Democrat) Vince Ryan and new District Attorney (and Republican) Pat Lykos as wondrous to behold.
It's just as clear that [Lykos is] absolutely fine with saying, right out loud, that she respects the new Democratic county attorney. "I think that we can be an exemplar, that we can set a new paradigm," Lykos says, "that instead of petty politics, you have sincere people who want to do good."
This is Harris County?

"If the politicians in a sharp-elbowed place like Houston can work across party lines, why can't yours?" Mecklin asks.
It's true that the courthouse and commissioner's court have come a long, long way from the days of Bob Eckels, Jon Lindsay and Chuck Rosenthal. Whether they've come as far as Mecklin posits, we'll have to wait and see.
But for the moment, Harris County government is being held up as an example, so that's not a bad thing.

Ten years ago today, Hurricane Floyd made landfall in North Carolina.
In the early morning hours of September 16th, Floyd made landfall in the Wilmington area as a category two hurricane. When the storm first came ashore it had maximum winds of 104 mph. While there was an initial sense of relief because the storm had lost some strength, that quickly changed when communities all across Eastern Carolina began to see the waters rise from the 10 to 24 inches of rain, in addition to the 8 to 10 inches of rain from Hurricane Dennis just two weeks earlier. What followed has been described as a 500-year flood event.
The CDC says 52 people in North Carolina died as a direct result from the storm. Read more about the deadly effects of Floyd.
As a result of Floyd, 66 out of 100 counties in North Carolina were declared disaster areas. More than 48,000 people were displaced to shelters during the worst of the flooding, only five percent of those had flood insurance. Throughout the flood 54,000 North Carolina homes were damaged with more than 16,000 of those either destroyed or left uninhabitable, according to the N.C. Division of Emergency Management and The Charlotte Observer. North Carolina's agriculture and livestock industries suffered as well, with the agriculture industry losing over 963 million dollars. The livestock industry lost millions of chickens and thousands of turkeys, and hogs.
The overall devastation was into the billions.
WITN will continue its week-long look at Hurricane Floyd tonight at 6 p.m. with a look at how the storm impacted Princeville in Edgecombe County.

Good buy if you dont use too many advance functions!This is a very cute calculator and will surely make heads turn! However, not a very good choice if you are a hardcore numeric person (like me) cause then half of the shortcuts dont work here. There is unnecessary tax and time buttons, which you dont use at all.. instead could have put a step check button. So, if you are a finance student( i am a CA Final Student) then, dont buy it. You would need another secondary calculator otherwise!

ABC7 WEATHER: Partly sunny with highs in the mid 70s. http://wj.la/72e8x6 {}
VIRGINIA RACE 2013: Enter the wildcard, per the Richmond Times-Dispatch, "He coulda been a contender. Republican Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling has heard that refrain enough in the five months since he decided not to mount an independent bid for governor. Over time and with the benefit of hindsight, he's come close to believing it. "Given the way this campaign has evolved it may well have broke our way," he said in an interview. "We may well have been able to run a more competitive campaign than I thought we could run."
"The call for an alternative has gotten louder in recent weeks as Democrat Terry McAuliffe and Republican Ken Cuccinelli have pummeled each other with attacks. The deadline for getting on the ballot passed in June. But dissatisfaction has raised another possibility: Bill Bolling, write-in candidate. Bolling admits that he has been approached by several people about the idea. He calls it a long shot and "not a viable option" in terms of being able to win. But he doesn't call it out of the question." http://bit.ly/13zrGvb
MORE CHARGES: Where there's smoke. . ., per the Baltimore Sun, "A Montgomery County elementary school teacher from Dundalk who was charged with possession of child pornography has now been charged with child sexual abuse, police said. Lawrence Wesley Joynes, 54, of the 1900 block of Ormand Road, is charged with 14 counts of sex abuse of a minor, third-degree sex offense, child abuse, and second-degree rape." http://bsun.md/14JEzsQ
CHAOS CONTINUES: In Egypt, per the Washington Post, "Egyptian security forces moved to break up two sprawling pro-Morsi sit-ins in the early hours of Wednesday morning, firing tear gas, bulldozing tents, and beating and arresting protesters. Black-clad riot police moved into the camps at about 7 a.m., confronting protesters as tan armored vehicles plowed through tents amid clouds of white and black smoke that appeared to come from fires and tear gas canisters.
"A spokesman for Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice party, which backs Morsi, said 120 people had been killed in the raids. That number could not be confirmed. A senior Health Ministry official, Ahmed el-Ansari, said four people were killed and 50 injured in all at the two sites." http://wapo.st/1cAybXZ
NOW WHAT?: Of peace talks, per the New York Times, "In the hours before Israeli-Palestinian peace talks were to start here on Wednesday, Israeli warplanes struck two sites in Gaza in response to rocket fire from the Palestinian coastal territory against southern Israel the night before, according to the Israeli military. There were no casualties on either side, but the events underlined the continued potential for confrontation in the volatile area after weeks of relative quiet." http://nyti.ms/16j2Zc0
WIND TEST: Maybe, per the Virginian-Pilot, "A team led by Dominion Virginia Power is proposing to build two test wind turbines off the coast of Virginia Beach. Tonight, company officials are holding an open house from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center in Virginia Beach to talk about the project.
"Dominion and its partners, known collectively as the Virginia Offshore Wind Technology Advancement Project, want to build the demonstration turbines 24 miles off the coast. The project is one of seven across the country that have each received $4 million in federal funding for initial engineering, design and permitting. Next year, the Department of Energy will select up to three of the projects for additional funding for construction." http://bit.ly/147XyHf
BOOKER: A winner, per the Newark Star-Ledger, "Newark Mayor Cory Booker has easily prevailed in the Democratic U.S. Senate primary tonight, the Associated Press projects. Booker will now face Steve Lonegan, the Republican primary winner, in the Oct. 16 special election to succeed the late Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.)." http://bit.ly/14vIgLG
McCONNELL: Issues a warning, per The Hill, "Shutting down the federal government will not stop President Obama's healthcare law from taking effect, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said on Tuesday. "I'm for stopping ObamaCare, but shutting down the government will not stop ObamaCare," McConnell (R-Ky.) told a crowd at a healthcare center in Corbin, Ky., according to a local television reporter who attended the event." http://bit.ly/1d4lzpw
POLITICO PLAY: "A terror threat has embassies on high alert. Hurricane season is about to pick up. And over at the Department of Homeland Security, the No. 3 person is about to be left in charge. Not because he was nominated for the top job. But with Janet Napolitano's upcoming departure Sept. 6, and President Barack Obama's nominee for deputy secretary tangled in corruption allegations, the Undersecretary of Homeland Security for National Protection and Programs is the highest confirmed official at the critical agency." http://politi.co/16ariXh
AMBULANCE WOES: Just the facts, per ABC7WJLA, "A D.C. ambulance caught fire Tuesday morning on Benning Road in Southeast Washington, the second time this month that an ambulance in the district caught fire. And on Tuesday afternoon, yet another went up in smoke at Washington Hospital in Northwest Washington.
"This is all in addition to President Obama's Medic 1 ambulance that ran out of gas on August 8 due to a reported broken fuel gauge. According to fire officials, all three ambulances are older models, scheduled to be replaced by newer units in the next couple of months. An investigation is now underway by D.C. police." http://wj.la/16g4wj7
CHARTER FUNDING: Questions in Montgomery County, per Gazette.Net, "As Community Montessori Charter School heads into its second school year, some county and school system officials are concerned about fundraising efforts to complement Montgomery County Public School funds in the school's budget. As of July 26, Crossway Community the nonprofit that operates the county's only charter school was continuing to raise the roughly $150,000 needed to complement about $66,000 the school system contributed to the 2012-2013 school year budget, according to Kathleen Guinan, the nonprofit's CEO." http://bit.ly/16KlUcl
POCKET CHANGE: Everything's relative, per City Paper, "LL has been bugging longshot mayoral candidate Christian Carter about filing his July 31 campaign finance disclosure. It's only fair to note, then, that Carter turned the form into the Office of Campaign Finance yesterday. Carter didn't exactly rush his numbers out the door, and it's easy to see why. Compared to the other candidates, Carter is lagging way behind in both money raised and cash on hand, even though his form claims that his campaign hasn't spent any of that money. Carter's campaign took in $3,601.87, which puts him more than $70,000 in funds raised behind the next mayoral candidate, Reta Lewis." http://bit.ly/19shug6
ADAM KOKESH: The latest, per the Washington Times, "A D.C. judge is considering a motion to release a jailed Internet talk show host who faces felony gun charges after a videotaped July Fourth stunt in which he is seen apparently loading a shotgun in the District's Freedom Plaza. Adam Kokesh has remained behind bars since he was arrested July 9 after a raid at his Herndon home. His attorney, Peter Cooper, argued Tuesday at a hearing in D.C. Superior Court that prosecutors previously presented incorrect information in court that made it impossible to verify a home address a condition of supervised release." http://bit.ly/13yDfmj
SPORTS, BRIEFLY: Nationals beat San Francisco 4-2.
TRENDING ON ABC7 FACEBOOK: "A proposed $70 million parking lot in Springfield will hold almost 1,100 spaces for commuters who desperately need a place to park every day. And it's coming with some extra special features -- including a ball field, tennis courts, and a track up on the roof." http://wj.la/18sX3en
NEWSTALK: Among today's guests (10 a.m., NewsChannel 8) is UDC law professor Andrew Ferguson, who will talk about his new book, "Why Jury Duty Matters: A citizen's guide to constitutional action."

Editor's note: I asked Dream Theater keyboardist Jordan Rudess to share his thoughts on some of the latest and greatest alternatives to the traditional piano keyboard when it comes to musical and timbral expression and control. AS is Jordan's wont, he sent me a detailed and well considered missive, which was distilled into the article "The Fretless Keyboard" in our June 2015 issue. As Jordan and I wanted to share it with you in its entirety, here is his original manuscript, only lightly edited. --Stephen Fortner
Seemingly everything is USB-powered these days, including electronic music gear such as the Akai MPX16, Novation MiniNova/UltraNova/Bass Station II, Roland TB-3, and Waldorf Rocket. Sure, you can run them off a laptop or smartphone charger, but a hefty USB battery may work as well.

Kathleen Turner turned 56 this past weekend, and so here's a belated Kathleen Turner-related entry to celebrate that event. I really like Kathleen Turner. Robert Zemeckis's Romancing the Stone was actually my favourite movie when I was about 11. There exists "Friends Books" out there, (you know, the kind you had in middle school where you had to fill our your "favourite this-and-that"), where I have listed RtS as the best movie known to me, in all seriousness. I watched it again a few months ago for the first time in 16 years, and while it's not likely to even be in my top 30 these days, I'm happy to report that I still thought it was a pretty decent flick, and a lot of this has to do with Kathleen Turner, who is wonderful as Joan Wilder.
What I particularly like about her performance is the way she plays the unlikely/reluctant action heroine so well. Audrey M. Brown from Best Action Heroines did a great post on Willie Scott from Temple of Doom and about how she is a misunderstood character. Willie Scott reacts the way we all would react if dropped in the middle of an adventure, argues Ms Brown, and goes on to say that Willie is "our advocate, our stand-in, and that makes the movie even more fun to watch, because we can picture ourselves in her shoes".
I think that Ms Brown makes some excellent points in her article, and I particularly like the fact that she points out that Kate Capshaw tends to be blamed for mishaps that were obviously Steven Spielberg's or George Lucas's babies. I think I'm guilty of doing that myself, to some extent, and I regret that – it's not fair, and Kate Capshaw certainly did her best with a difficult part. As for the idea that Willie Scott is a good character and works as a kind of advocate for myself as a viewer, however, I am going to have to respectfully disagree with Best Action Heroes. The thing is, if I'm going to identify with a character in an action movie, I need to be able to feel that the character has something at stake, something that truly drives her throughout the story, and I think this was the thing I missed most about Willie Scott. The way Willie Scott was written, she merely tagged along with Indy on his adventure on his quest and apart from a half-assed idea of maybe getting married to the maharaja, Willie had nothing emotionally invested in the journey. And this is why I have little tolerance for her screaming and her whining throughout the movie. I'd feel for Willie if I thought that she was forced to overcome the obstacles before her in order to achieve some goal, but as it is, there is no goal for her, and her presence is reduced to the situation-based comedy of her squeamishness.
I realised this as I was re-watched Romancing the Stone, because this is exactly what works so beautifully in this movie, compared to Temple of Doom. Joan Wilder doesn't whine a whole lot less than Willie Scott in the movie, and a lot of their shtick is similar: Their wardrobe is unpractical and inappropriate in the wilderness of the jungle, they go on involuntary river rafting rides, they get wet/muddy etc. But unlike Kate Capshaw, Kathleen Turner was given a character arc, a strong motivation, to carry her through these slap-stick moments, and Turner seems well aware of this. Joan Wilder embarks on her journey out of her won volition; because she desperately wants to save her sister who is in grave danger by the hands of criminals who have killed her husband. Every threat to her life that Joan experiences on her adventure is a reminder of the perils that her own sister may be living through. As a result, Joan has a certain appealing determination despite being freaked out by her surroundings and is much less prone towards hysteria than Willie Scott. My favourite moment is the one that's featured in the trailer at 00:34, where Zolo suddenly pulls a gun at her, and Joan, incredulous, goes "…What??" – a much funnier reaction than the high-pitched screaming Willie does in similar situations.
I also like that the love story is intertwined with Joan's character development. In Temple of Doom the writers take the easy way out of the Willie/Indy relation and play the sex card: Willie and Indy really don't seem to have much of a connection apart from a somewhat vulgar sexual attraction ("Mating habits… nocturnal activities" and all that), and there is little indication that Willie will move on from her Whiny, Spoiled Night Club Singer personality after meeting Indy. In Romancing the Stone, the heroine undergoes a personal development through her relationship with the hero. Joan Wilder is a timid woman who lives vicariously through the characters she creates as a romance novelist, but meeting Jack T. Colton changes her. Not because she needs a man to help her develop, but because she simply allows herself to thrive in a romantic relationship. Both Turner's acting and the art direction work very well to underline this: Whereas Joan at the beginning of the movie is mousy, to the point of being almost blurred, she steps into focus during he course of the movie, blossoming right before our eyes. This is propably most prominent in the salsa dancing scene, in which Joan gives into Colombian folkloristic rhythms and her attraction to Jack, and literally lets her hair down, wearing a lovely pink top (as opposed to the beige colours we see her in early in the movie), and smiling radiantly. In the end, we're left with the story of a woman who steps into character, rather than create characters in the confined space of fiction and fantasy, and I think that's wonderful.
I'm not saying that Romancing the Stone is perfect, of course. I can take or leave Michael Douglas as a romantic hero, for instance, although he does have a bit of a sexy Sawyer-from-LOST going for him in this part. I really dislike Danny DeVito, who seems to me to be playing the part of Danny DeVito in every single movie he's ever made. And let's just forget that Jewel of the Nile ever happened, shall we? But I still think that this early 1980s flic is the one of the sweetest depictions of an unlikely action heroine I've seen. And I'm not at all pleased to have found out that it's about to be remade. What's with all the remakes, Hollywood? Have you completely given up on the idea of originality? Oh, well. That's for another blog entry, I guess.

Test Card F: Television, Mythinformation, and Social Control
Beginning "It is better to suck and fuck until your knees wobble than to squander your youth on reformist politics," Test Card F is a graphic demolition derby through the culture of a factory farmed and show-shocked society, a society whose sell-by date has long since expired. Using savage image/text cut and paste, this controversial book explodes all previous media theories and riots through the Global Village, looting the ideological supermarkets of all its products: anti-fascism, Malcolm X, James Bulger, the Gulf War, Satanic Abuse, Somalia, and Eastern Europe.
Test Card F joyrides in front of the surveillance cameras, amidst the rubble of a junkyard nation, and heaves television's burnt-out carcass through the plate glass shop window of "independent" video and "community access" broadcasting. It transcends postmodern and Situationist analysis in its positive refusal of the concept of Truth.
Test Card F has no named authors; it originates in the pirate transmissions of the unruly squatters of cyberspace when scheduled programming closes down for the night.

Fundraising: Emmert was considered a consummate fundraiser, often traveling the country to meet with wealthy donors and get them excited about giving to the university. In 2008, he finished an eight-year fundraising campaign with $2.68 billion, nearly $700 million over target.
Research: The university's reputation as a research powerhouse — particularly in medicine and related disciplines — has continued to grow under Emmert's tenure. In 2008, he launched an ambitious public-health institute with a Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation grant of $105 million — the largest gift in UW history.
Athletics: Emmert inherited a battered football program that went into free fall in 2008, going 0-12. But the hiring of coach Steve Sarkisian, who went 5-7 last year, again raised hopes. Basketball, crew and women's softball have all done well under Emmert's tenure, although swimming was axed and the UW failed to find legislative support to renovate Husky Stadium.
Salary: Emmert was the nation's second-highest-paid public university president, with a salary of $906,500. He also collected an additional $340,000 in cash and stock from sitting on two corporate boards. That level of compensation put him under increasing fire as the state budget hit hard times and the UW faced severe cutbacks. When he and other senior leaders announced in February that they would donate 5 percent of their salaries to student scholarships, some considered the gesture too little, too late.
- Seattle's vanishing black community
- Bellevue School District seeks to fire football coach Goncharoff over scandal
- Boeing tankers will be delivered to Air Force late — and incomplete
- Paul Allen ends KEXP's yearslong fundraising drive with $500,000 donation
- A six-pack of observations from Seahawks' OTAs: Justin Britt, Alex Collins, Tharold Simon and more
Most Read Stories
Olympia: Emmert did well in Olympia when the state's economy was booming, landing plenty of money for new programs and facilities. But his charm with some lawmakers seemed to wane as the state's economy collapsed, and the UW sustained deeper cuts than just about any other state agency.

I currently have a Synology ds411 NAS hard drive with 4x2TB hard drives in RAID 10 (so 4tb usable) and I'm about to get a job which requires a lot of travel away from home. I connect to the NAS over dynDNS to a 25 Down/15 Up home connection using the WebDAV protocol (and NetDrive on the Win7 laptop I use).
I'm not quite getting the speeds I want out of this NAS for listening to music and browsing through folders on it, especially when I'm 3000 miles away.
I'm thinking of upgrading my home connection to 150 Down/65 Up (cost about an extra 80 a month which is high but acceptable if it works)
My question is will this upgrade actually be worth it in terms of getting the speeds I want out of the NAS? (Assume the network I connect to with my laptop is around 40/40).
If not, Is there a better alternative to WebDAV that will allow me to see my NAS as a network hard drive from anywhere?

|EMD CORPORATION Patent applications
|Patent application number
|THIN-FILM FORMATION SPUTTERING DEVICE - A thin-film formation sputtering device capable of forming a high-quality thin film at high rates is provided. A sputtering device includes a target holder provided in a vacuum container, a substrate holder facing the target holder, a means for introducing a plasma generation gas into the vacuum container, a means for generating an electric field for sputtering in a region including a surface of a target, an antenna placement room provided between inner and outer surfaces of a wall of the vacuum container as well as separated from an inner space of the vacuum container by a dielectric window, and a radio-frequency antenna, which is provided in the antenna placement room, for generating a radio-frequency induction electric field in the region including the surface of the target held by the target holder.
|ANTENNA FOR PLASMA PROCESSING DEVICE, AND PLASMA PROCESSING DEVICE USING THE SAME - A radio-frequency antenna includes a linear antenna conductor, a dielectric protective pipe provided around the antenna conductor, and a deposit shield provided around the protective pipe, the deposit shield covering at least one portion of the protective pipe and having at least one opening on any line extending along the length of the antenna conductor. Although the thin-film material adheres to the surfaces of the protective pipe and the deposit shield, the deposited substance has at least one discontinuous portion in the longitudinal direction of the antenna conductor. Therefore, in the case where the thin-film material is electrically conductive, the blocking of the radio-frequency induction electric field is prevented. In the case where the thin-film material is not electrically conductive, an attenuation in the intensity of the radio-frequency induction electric field is suppressed.
|PLASMA PROCESSING DEVICE - The present invention provides an internal antenna type plasma processing device which is easily maintained and capable of producing stable plasma. The plasma processing device has a plurality of antenna units
|PLASMA PROCESSING DEVICE - A plasma processing device has: a metallic vacuum chamber; an antenna-placing section in which a radio-frequency antenna is placed inside a through-hole (hollow space) provided in an upper wall of the vacuum chamber; and a dielectric separating plate covering the entire inner surface of the upper wall. In this plasma processing device, the entire inner surface side of the upper wall is covered with the separating plate so that surfaces in different level otherwise formed when a smaller separating plate is used is not formed between the inner surface and the separating plate. Therefore, the generation of particles caused by the formation of adhered materials on the surfaces in different level is prevented.
|PLASMA PROCESSING DEVICE - A plasma processing device according to the present invention includes a plasma processing chamber, a plasma producing chamber communicating with the plasma processing chamber, a radio-frequency antenna for producing plasma, a plasma control plate for controlling the energy of electrons in the plasma, as well as an operation rod and a moving mechanism for regulating the position of the plasma control plate. In this plasma processing device, the energy distribution of the electrons of the plasma produced in the plasma producing chamber can be controlled by regulating the distance between the radio-frequency antenna 16 and the plasma control plate by simply moving the operation rod in its longitudinal direction by the moving mechanism. Therefore, a plasma process suitable for the kind of gas molecules to be dissociated and/or their dissociation energy can be easily performed.
|SPUTTERING SYSTEM - The present invention aims at providing a sputtering system capable of efficiently generating high-density plasma near the surface of a sputter target and forming a film at a high rate. It also aims at providing a large-area sputtering system and a plasma processing system having a simple structure and allowing the sputter target to be easily attached/detached, maintained, or operated otherwise. The present invention provides a sputtering system in which an inductively-coupled antenna conductor plate is attached to a portion of a vacuum chamber, wherein: a sputter target plate is attached to the inductively-coupled antenna conductor on its plasma formation space side; one end of the antenna conductor is connected to a radio-frequency power source; and the other end is grounded through a capacitor. A plurality of antenna conductors may be provided to form a large-area sputtering system.
|PLASMA PROCESSING DEVICE - An inductively coupled plasma processing device using a radio-frequency electric discharge, including: a vacuum container; an antenna-placing section provided between an inner surface and an outer surface of a wall of the vacuum container; a radio-frequency antenna placed in the antenna-placing section, the radio-frequency antenna being terminated without completing one turn; and a dielectric separating member separating the antenna-placing section and an internal space of the vacuum container, wherein the radio-frequency antenna has a length equal to or shorter than one quarter of a wavelength of the radio-frequency waves.
|PLASMA PROCESSING APPARATUS - The present invention provides a plasma processing device capable of inducing a strong radio-frequency electric field within a vacuum container while preventing sputtering of the antenna conductor, an increase in the temperature of the antenna conductor and the formation of particles. A plasma processing device according to the present invention includes a vacuum container, a radio-frequency antenna placed between an inner surface and an outer surface of a wall of the vacuum container, and a dielectric separating member for separating the radio-frequency antenna from an internal space of the vacuum container. As compared to a device using an external antenna, the present device can induce a stronger magnetic field in the vacuum container. The separating member has the effects of preventing the radio-frequency antenna from undergoing sputtering by the plasma produced in the vacuum container, suppressing an increase in the temperature of the radio-frequency antenna, and preventing the formation of particles.
|THIN-FILM FORMING SPUTTERING SYSTEM - A thin-film forming sputtering system capable of a sputtering process at a high rate. A thin-film forming sputtering system includes: a vacuum container; a target holder located inside the vacuum container; a target holder located inside the vacuum container; a substrate holder opposed to the target holder; a power source for applying a voltage between the target holder and the substrate holder: a magnetron-sputtering magnet provided behind the target holder, for generating a magnetic field having a component parallel to a target; and radio-frequency antennae for generating radio-frequency inductively-coupled plasma within a space in the vicinity of the target where the magnetic field generated by the magnetron sputtering magnet has a strength equal to or higher than a predetermined level. The radio-frequency inductively-coupled plasma generated by the radio-frequency antennae promotes the supply of electrons into the aforementioned magnetic field, so that the sputtering process can be performed at a high rate.
|PLASMA GENERATION DEVICE AND PLASMA PROCESSING DEVICE - A flange, which forms a portion of a vacuum container, has a rectangular opening surrounded by an insulating frame. A plate-shaped radio-frequency antenna conductor
|RADIO-FREQUENCY ANTENNA UNIT AND PLASMA PROCESSING APPARATUS - The present invention aims at providing a radio-frequency antenna unit capable of generating a high-density discharge plasma in a vacuum chamber. The radio-frequency antenna unit according to the present invention includes: a radio-frequency antenna through which a radio-frequency electric current can flow; a protective tube made of an insulator provided around the portion of the radio-frequency antenna that is in the vacuum chamber; and a buffer area provided between the radio-frequency antenna and the protective tube. The "buffer area" refers to an area where an acceleration of electrons is suppressed, and it can be formed, for example, with a vacuum or an insulator. Such a configuration can suppress an occurrence of an electric discharge between the antenna and the protective tube, enabling the generation of a high-density discharge plasma in the vacuum chamber.
|PLASMA PROCESSING APPARATUS - The present invention aims at providing a plasma processing apparatus for performing a plasma processing on a planar substrate body to be processed, the apparatus being capable of generating the plasma with good uniformity and efficiently using the plasma, and having a high productivity. That is, the plasma processing apparatus according to the present invention includes: a vacuum chamber; one or plural antenna supporters (plasma generator supporters) projecting into the internal space of the vacuum chamber; radio-frequency antennas (plasma generators) attached to each antenna supporter; and a pair of substrate body holders provided across the antenna supporter in the vacuum chamber, for holding a planar substrate body to be processed.
