The film continues the legendary story of the homicidal Sawyer family, picking up where Tobe Hooper's 1974 horror classic left off in Newt, Texas, where for decades people went missing without a trace. Decades later and hundreds of miles away from the original massacre, a young woman named Heather learns that she has inherited a Texas estate from a grandmother she never knew she had. After embarking on a road trip with friends to uncover her roots, she finds she is the sole owner of a lavish, isolated Victorian mansion. But her newfound wealth comes at a price as she stumbles upon a horror that awaits her in the mansion's dank cellars.

ASK IRA: How do Heat get Heat fans into the seats?
Q: Realistically, what can be done with the fans? Do you think any action will be taken? Our homecourt sucks. It's not loud, all the real fans are in the nosebleeds or at home, and somehow whether it's Chicago, New York, Boston or Dallas, their fans always seem to stick out like a sore thumb in the building. Can anything be changed? — Omer.
A: Something has to be done about tickets being sold as commodities instead of entertainment investments. This is the market the Heat created with their pricing, where the typical season-ticket holder has to recoup some of the excessive investment by putting some of the product on the secondary market. I could vent all I want, but, truth be told, if I had tickets and the price was right, and I had laid out a huge investment, I, too, would like to recoup some of the cost. If the Heat want to truly foster a homecourt advantage, it is something they have to address. Because Sunday was just a crappy atmosphere, even during the times when the Heat were competitive. I know the Heat swapped out tickets with the Mavericks and all of Dallas' fans wound up in one section, but it was more than one game. A significant amount of Heat tickets were not utilized by Heat fans this season. It is an issue Micky Arison needs to address with his business staff before next season. Perhaps a rebate or merchandise bonus could be offered when the ticket-holder of record flashes his license or thumb print is scanned upon entry, knowing the actual ticket-holder utilized the ticket, instead of Joe Knicks or Billy Bob Maverick.
Q: I believe the fan reaction to Sunday night's loss has been over the top, even though I know it's human nature and we tend to live in the moment. Should we really be this upset? I'm upset and bothered, but I'm not hysterical. For me, the worst part is the wait, the waiting for next season to start. We went in two years from 'bounced' in the first round by Atlanta to a couple wins away from title. Most people didn't expect this team to win a title this year because it takes time to come together and because it is a flawed team. As for LeBron, he owes me nothing. He, first, let himself down. Second, he let his team and coaches down. Third, we can discuss the fan base. I truly dislike when fans make themselves the victim. This whole thing of "they let me down" is a bunch of b.s. You know what? Dallas has a title, but we had an entire season of highly entertaining basketball that lasted until June. I'm upset, but I don't feel that bad. — Jose.
A: Even amid the noise, I'm finding far more rational thought than I'd come to expect from the mail bag. Perhaps there is hope for us yet.
Q: Ira, I wonder how much Wade wants to distance himself from LeBron. His comments and, more importantly, his play in the Finals were not why Wade wanted him here. — Juan.
A: Reasonable point. There were times during the series, at least from a basketball standpoint, where Dwyane had to be like, "Who is this guy?" But, remember, LeBron is younger than Dwyane. Perhaps it's all about maturity. Or at least the Heat hope.
Q: The Heat probably won't change coaches in the offseason, but maybe this is where you need a veteran coach who has the backbone to stand up to his players. Spo seems to be a good young coach, but this team, at this time, needs leadership. — Ron.
A: But this team also was two wins from a championship. And how do you know he didn't call plays and his players, his superstars, simply ignored them? I severely doubt he tells LeBron to pound the ball into the court for ten seconds, then do it for another five.
Q: Will the virulent anti-Heat sentiment in the media and among the rest of the NBA subside next year? — Jeffrey
A: If it doesn't, then people truly don't have lives.

ZF-7521: The Zend Tool zf.php script uses $_ENV instead of getenv(), in recent releases of php, the $_ENV superglobal is not populated in the recommended php.ini file
Recent versions of the distributed/recommended php.ini file state that the superglobal variable order should be "GPCS" (i.e. variables_order = "GPCS"). Since E is omitted, the $_ENV superglobal is never populated and the ini file recommends always using getwnv() in preference to $_ENV.
The Zend Tool zf.php file uses $_ENV and getenv() erratically, sometimes checking for the existence of an environment var with getenv() and then assuming it's existence by referencing the $_ENV array. All references in this file should use getenv().
I have attached the file with $_ENV factored out in favor of getenv()

Franklin - The Architectural Review Board is poised to consider how LED signs should be regulated within the city.
The board discussed concerns related to the signs Jan. 24, particularly those capable of displaying high-quality moving images.
Member Ted Juerisson brought the issue to the board, noting that the brightness of the signs, such as the one located at the car wash on Rawson Avenue, can be overwhelming, especially at night.
"I want to discuss whether we want to regulate these or just let them come in and make conditions as they come in," Juerisson said.
Board member Louis Jost agreed that the lighting of LED signs can be an issue, and should be adjusted by businesses based on the level of brightness needed at a particular time of day.
Building Inspector Fred Baumgart said that the signs also can pose a distraction to drivers if the displayed images or messages change too frequently.
Baumgart said the city's existing sign code does not address LED signs. Staff is in the process of updating the code, much of which is out dated, he added.
"To tell you that it addresses any of the new technology … no," Baumgart told the board.
Currently there is only a handful of the type of LED signs the board is concerned with throughout the city, Baumgart said, although there are many LED signs that display only text.
"People with a message to display generally go with the LED signs that display text," Baumgart said, as those are much less expensive than signs capable of displaying TV-quality images.
As far as other communities' restrictions on those LED signs are concerned, "It's all over the place," Baumgart said. "A lot of communities just don't allow them. The city hasn't developed a stance one way or the other."
The board voted to table the matter until its first meeting in February, at which time it will consider LED sign regulations that other communities have used and draft recommended language on regulations for Franklin. Any ordinance changes would need to be approved by the Common Council, Baumgart said.
LED stands for "light emitting diode."
A cluster of red, green and blue diodes - electronic components that allow electricity to pass in only one direction -together forms a full-color pixel.
LED panels are typically used in outdoor signs and as a form of lighting.

… they seem to have no desire to undertake the kind of work which makes any claim to leave a lasting legacy. They have the inner freedom to exercise their intelligence in the way that taxi drivers will practise their navigational skills: they will go wherever their client directs them to. … They have no ambition to become known to strangers or to record their insights for an unimpressed and ephemeral future. They are well-adjusted enough to have made their peace with oblivion. They have accepted with grace the paucity of opportunities for immortality in audit.
The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work by Alain de Botton
The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work is less about work than it is about the extremes of specialisation in the modern economy. In ten loosely linked essays, de Botton follows the path of a tuna from the Indian Ocean to a plate in Bristol, the invention and manufacture of a snack biscuit, the launch of a Japanese television satellite, and the intricacies of a large accounting firm. Along the way de Botton casts light on facets of our economic lives that, owing to our own participation in the ever-finer subdivision of labor, we rarely have the opportunity to reflect upon. Accompanied by Richard Baker's stark and often strangely beautiful photographs of warehouses, electric pylons, and office buildings, The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work is an equally insightful and exasperating tour of how the world functions.
I say exasperating because the book is informed by a philosophy of work which is only briefly enunciated, and largely unexamined. De Botton draws a thread from Aristotle through Christian doctrine and the Enlightenment, and on to current self-help nostrums expounded by career counselors; it represents a distorted view of work and why we do it.
In the fourth century BC, Aristotle clarified the attitude that was to last more than two millennia when he referred to a structural incompatibility between satisfaction and a paid position. For the Greek philosopher, financial need placed one on a par with slaves and animals.
Early Christianity appended to Aristotle's notion the still darker doctrine that the miseries of work were an appropriate and immovable means of expiating the sins of Adam.
This view of work was challenged in the Renaissance and Enlightenment, particularly by Diderot and d'Alembert in their Encylodédie, "a paean to the nobility of labour" which sought to raise the "mechanical" arts to the level of the "liberal" arts. "[T]he European bourgeoisie took the momentous step of co-opting on behalf of both marriage and work the pleasures hitherto pessimistically–or perhaps realistically–confined, by aristocrats, to the subsidiary realms of the love affai and the hobby."
De Botton's approach is informed by this conflict between the Aristotelian and the bourgeois, with his sympathies apparently with the aristocratic position. He expects to find his subjects subscribing to the bourgeois expectations of deriving meaning from their work, which leads him to be disdainful of the tightly proscribed spheres in which they find their purpose. How, he wonders, can ultimate meaning be found in the design of cookie advertisements, the minutia of financial audits, and the clockwork science of logistics? The workaday world of contemporary capitalism demands such narrow specialisation that surely all meaning has been drained out of work; souls that find meaning within these narrow confines must be severely stunted in comparison to the Greek philosophers, medieval craftsmen, and gentleman hobbyists of yore.
This is a well-traveled path: I think in particular of Marx on alienation (especially in the Grundrisse), Weber's "iron cage" of capitalism and bureaucracy, and Sloan Wilson's The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit, as well as the early (pre-Lockean) conservative critique of capitalism. But it is also a very narrow and elite notion of where work fits into the full human life. In tracing that path from Aristotle to self-actualization through work–two sides of the same coin, I would argue–de Botton ignores the experience of the vast majority of men and women who have had to work to survive, and the strategies they have found to balance necessity and purpose. The amount of meaning we can, do, and should derive from our work is an unsettled question.
When I examine my own life, I find that the things from which I get the most pleasure (and sorrow)–parenting, reading, writing–are decidedly non-remunerative; indeed, the paid work that I do is an attempt to fund those other activities. The hours I spend working for pay are not devoid of meaning, though; I've been lucky to find work that I often find enjoyable and challenging, even if it is not incredibly fulfilling. I fully expect none of the software projects I've been part of to outlive me, much less become monuments for the ages. This perspective does not preclude pride in a job well done, or even passionate opinions about how a project should be implemented. A pleasure that I find in my work, and which I share with de Botton's accountants, rocket engineers, and biscuit bakers, is to see my efforts change the world, even in a very tiny way: we are, after all, homo faber, the makers of our own environment, and even in the current stage of capitalism we can face down alienation by seizing control of our proscribed spheres.
De Botton seems unwilling, in his focus on the extremes of the division of labor, to grant his subjects the dignity they've fashioned for themselves. Ultimate meaning may not be derived from their work, and due to the book's focus we get few glimpses of the sphere where meaning is actually found in their lives; but surely some value is to be found in the enthusiasm these people show for their work.
This is not to say that The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work is entirely condescending, nor that the philosophy underpinning it taints the entire book. This is an insightful book as well, after all, and there is much to learn and ponder in it. The chapter on logistics, and the photo essay following a tuna from its brutal death to consumption by a boy who "hates tuna, but not as much as he hates salmon," illuminates the processes that alienate us from the sources of all the commodities in ourr lives. The vignettes that bookend the chapter on accountancy could be descriptions of Edward Hopper paintings, with their unbearable longing and loneliness.
De Botton also has some interesting things to say about the sublimation of desire as a necessary function of the modern workplace:
Superficially, the [sexual harassment] code seems wholly and admirably concerned with championing the rights of innocent parties. There may, however, be a more cynical and less altruistic aspect to this unsparing paragraph, for what is really being protected is perhaps not a particular individual afflicted by indecent attention so much as the corporation itself. The feelings elicited by Katie's shorts are incendiary because they threaten to subvert the firm's entire rationale. They risk bringing to light an awkward truth: how much more interesting we might find it to have sex than to work.
As an examination of the invisible girders, both physical and ideological, that support the modern economy, The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work is insightful and intriguing. I've become increasingly conscious of the trucks and wires that keep my grocery store stocked and my lights burning, and curious about the barges on the Mississippi since reading The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work. But as an exploration of how we make sense of the world we've made, and how we negotiate work's meaning in our lives, de Botton brings a bit too much baggage on the journey.

Crown Prince chairs Cabinet session (12/9/13)
December 9, 2013
Crown Prince Salman bin Abdulaziz chaired the Cabinet session at Al-Yamamah Palace in Riyadh this afternoon. The ministers began by wishing the leaders of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states success during their 34th summit, which will begin in Kuwait tomorrow. They were briefed on a number of issues related to GCC cooperation and reviewed the agenda of the upcoming summit.
After listening to reports on the latest regional and international developments, the Cabinet discussed the results of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) meeting held in Vienna last week. Noting the decision of the body to maintain current production levels, the ministers commended the continued stability of the oil market and characterized price levels as suitably balanced.
The Cabinet offered the Kingdom's condolences to the government and people of South Africa on the death of former President Nelson Mandela, who played a prominent role in his country's struggle for freedom. It also expressed condolences to the government and people of Yemen, condemning the recent terrorist attack on the Ministry of Defense compound in Sana'a.
Next, the Cabinet reviewed the scientific and cultural activities that took place in the Kingdom last week. It welcomed the awarding of the King Khalid Prize to the late Prince Nayef bin Abdulaziz, as well as the launching of the Saudi human genome program at the King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology (KACST).
Turning to its remaining agenda items, the Cabinet approved a number of actions to empower the Saudi General Commission for Audiovisual Media to review and organize media content; authorized the Minister of Interior to sign a draft agreement with the German Ministry of Interior on the provision of assistance for the development and training of border guards in the Kingdom; increased the Kingdom's share in the subscribed capital of the Islamic Development Bank; approved appointments to the Board of Directors of the Saudi Postal Corporation and the Board of Directors of the Human Resources Development Fund; and approved the application of the decision of the 32nd session of the Supreme Council of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states regarding the adoption of a system of sources of surface and ground water.
The Cabinet approved the appointment of Ibrahim Al-Yahya as Legal Advisor at the Supreme Council of the Magistracy (15th rank); Nahedh Al-Harbi as Minister Plenipotentiary at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs; Jassem Al-Khalidi as Minister Plenipotentiary at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs; Mohammed Al-Otaibi as Administrative Advisor at the Ministry of Interior (14th rank); Saud Al-Haqan as Adviser for Security Affairs at the Ministry of Interior; and Mansour Al-Mazrou' as Assistant Undersecretary for registration of Property in Kind at the Ministry of Justice.

About Davina & the Vagabonds
Since exploding onto the scene in 2005, Davina and the Vagabonds have grown from a down-and-dirty blues band into one of the most exciting acoustic ensembles on the international stage. This high-energy quintet has established itself with a stellar live show, a professional look, and good old-fashioned hard work. They used to average over 300 shows a year in the Mpls/St. Paul area, and now have an ambitious full-time U.S. and international schedule. In recent years they have performed in 41 states, 2 Canadian provinces and 10 European countries.
With influences ranging from Fats Domino and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band to Aretha Franklin and Tom Waits, the band is converting audiences one show at a time. So much more than just a blues act, DATV's shows are filled with New Orleans charm, Memphis soul swagger, dark theatrical moments that evoke Kurt Weill, and tender gospel passages. Davina's voice and stage presence defy category in a different way. Davina has been compared to Etta James, Amy Winehouse, Janis Joplin, Billie Holiday and Betty Boop, but comparisons don't suffice. Sowers is a true original.
Davina and the Vagabonds' latest record, 2014's Sunshine is the latest chapter in Davina and the Vagabond's New Spin on an Old Sound mission! Recorded in exquisite analog sound, Sunshine is a bold statement from a songwriter and band that draws from the last 100 years of American music and sounds truly original.
What Other People Have Been Saying...
"She purrs and growls, whispers and wails. Sweet and seductive one moment, she's in your face the next, and then she makes you laugh. Her voice is a complex, expressive, flexible instrument made of sugar and grit." – Pamela Espeland, MinnPost
"Davina Sowers is a one-of-a-kind performer whose singing… has a sassiness bearing some comparison to that of heart-thumping blues queens Ma Rainey and Ida Cox." – Downbeat
"There is a timeless quality about this band that sets them apart from the masses but, perhaps more than anything else, there is an honesty here that is refreshing beyond belief. This band loves what they do and they do it well." – Bill Wilson, Reflections in Blue
"Two things remain consistent at all her shows though: her throaty but cushiony voice, which has a sort of hard-mattress comfort to it that's part Bonnie Raitt, part Etta James and a little Amy Winehouse; and her band's rollicking New Orleans flavor, driven home by dueling horn players and a bayou-thick standup bass." –Chris Riemenschneider, Star Tribune

Income tax fraud is intentionally paying less tax than you owe.
Examples of income tax fraud are:
- Failing to report all income received.
- Claiming to be a resident of another state while residing in California.
- Making false or fraudulent claims for refunds.
- Not filing state income tax returns.
- Questionable tax practitioner practices.
- Opening and closing of new businesses to evade taxes.

Story Courtesy of Mercyhurst Sports Information
Erie, Pa. – The No. 3 Mercyhurst College
women's hockey team claimed its seventh consecutive College
Hockey America tournament trophy as the Lakers rolled past Wayne
State, 6-1, in the CHA championship game Saturday afternoon at the
Mercyhurst Ice Center.
The Lakers, winners of eight straight tournament championships (seven CHA, one GLWHA) since 2002, set the school record for most consecutive wins at 15 and gave head coach Michael Sisti his 250th career victory.
Mercyhurst (29-5-0) secured the title by jumping out to a 4-1 lead in the first period. The Lakers tormented starting netminder Delayne Brian by scoring three times on their first five shots. Junior captain Meghan Agosta, the 2009 CHA Player of the Year, started the run with her 37th of the season at 2:22 followed by tallies from freshman Meghan Corbett at 3:41 and freshman Kelley Steadman at 6:20.
The three goals forced Wayne State to replace Brian with Amanda Park, who played the remaining 53:40 with 31 saves.
Shortly after the change, freshman Jess Jones pushed the lead to four with her fourth of the tournament at 13:11.
Wayne State rounded out the first period with a power-play goal from Natalie Payne at 16:17.
Despite the offensive surge in the opening frame, the Lakers were shutout for most of the second. Senior assistant captain Valerie Chouinard ended the scoring drought when she connected off a pass from tournament MVP sophomore Jesse Scanzano at 19:28. Scanzano finished with a game-high three assists to go along with her four points against Niagara.
Mercyhurst added its sixth score in the third, as Agosta found the back of the net for the second time with her 38th of the season at 13:46.
The Lakers held a 39-13 advantage in shots and converted 1-for-7 on the power-play. The Warriors, ranked second in the country with the extra-man, finished 1-for-8.
Freshman Hillary Pattenden made 12 saves to improve to 22-2-0 on the season and mark the third-highest single season win total in program history.
With the conference tournament now in the books, the Lakers will wait to hear from the NCAA selection committee on Sunday, March 8 to see if they qualify for the 2009 tournament. Selections are expected to be announced at 6:30 p.m.

Hundreds of Sussex County residents filled downtown Georgetown on Monday night for the 29th annual Caroling on The Circle event.
The carolers helped contribute to the 26,000 canned goods and other non-perishable food items Sussex County government has collected for the less fortunate this month.
The county's food drive will continue through the end of December in the hopes of surpassing last year's total of 29,000 donated food items. Collected items will be donated to about a dozen food pantries, shelters and church organizations for distributing in Sussex County.
Also during Monday's event, Georgetown Mayor Mike Wyatt introduced Donna Koskey as the town's 2012 Volunteer of the Year.
In her first official duty, Koskey threw the switch that lit the Christmas tree on The Circle.

Post subject: Searching For Two Injured Regency Heroes
I'm just rereading Red Roses Mean Love by Jacquie D'Alessandro and I'm thinking about two other books with quite similar topics, but whose titles and authors I've forgotten.
One could be an older classic regency. The H, titled and wealthy, breaks his leg and has to stay in the home of our heroine. She lives with her father, who is somewhat of a recluse with little interest in day to day life, and maybe a younger brother. Their financial means are meager. To maintain propriety the h has to take in a woman from the neighborhood. I remember her as not very congenial. I can't recall if the H has other injuries too and also no further details besides that he stays in the small room usually used by the h. Perhaps (?) eventually his valet arrives and helps to care for him, but I'm not sure about that. I could confuse it with the second book:
This book has the length of a typical historical, I think. The H is quite arrogant and conceited at the beginning (a bit like the H in RRML). He has to change some to become likeable - and lovable. This h too lives under similar limited financial circumstances but has a noble background. As I recall her two younger brothers find the unconcious H and bring him and his horse home. The heroine nurses him back to health. At first the H thinks he can show his gratitude in bringing her to London to his family (to a sister?) where they could find a suitable husband for her. So it's not a straight forward relationship between the two. It takes some time until the H finally does notice that the best husband would be himself.
Has anybody read one of these titles? I really would like to reread these books (hoping they are available as ebooks).

One of them might be The Conquest by Edith Layton:

I was going to suggest both THE CONQUEST and THE ACCIDENTAL BRIDE. Also, isn't that roughly the plot of Mary Balogh's SLIGHTLY SINFUL?

Thanks for Your help!
As it is a few years since I've read the second title I'm quite sure that it is The Conquest by E. Layton.
I've read the other books You mentioned, too. They are not the titles I'm searching for.
I believe the first book was an older regency, more of a sweet story, but I really can't remember much about it.

Could the first book be "An Affair of Honor" by Candice Hern? There's a brother and a valet but no heroine father as I recall.. An enjoyable book.

Thanks for the answer, juliafe, but it's not the title I'm searching for. I had the Hern book on my Kindle but not yet read. So I started reading now.
And now I'm thinking how many Regencies have this same theme: heroine rescuing the hero and, or at least, nursing him back to health?
My question here has produced four, there's the Jacquie D'Alessandro book too, another I've read some time ago taking place in post revolutionary France and the h following the (reluctant) H to England in search of her mother's family (can't remember neither author nor title, too).
And then there's Libby's London Merchand by Carla Kelly with the turn that the h doesn't marry the rescued!!, a sign for the superior writing of the author.
But I wonder how many books of this kind one could find?

I think there is a Cynster book by Stephanie Laurens, A Secret Love that has this theme and a favorite medieval, A Knight to Remember by Christina Dodd

Spotlight for Career Services ProfessionalsMarch 19, 2014
Although the average salaries for eight of nine career center staff positions climbed in 2013-14, the salaries remained relatively flat from last year, according to results of NACE's 2013-14 Career Services Benchmark Survey.
Average salaries for five of these eight positions increased by less than $1,000. However, the other three had relatively sizable gains.
Marketing coordinators saw the largest increase—nearly $5,000—to their average salary. Directors, the highest-paid career services staff members, earned an average of $3,200 more this year, while the average salary for technical coordinators jumped more than $2,300.
In terms of experience, directors have an average of 16 years—most among career center staff. The only notable change was for career information specialists, whose average dipped from eight years of experience last year to five this year and perhaps explains their drop in average salary.
Data for the 2013-14 Career Services Benchmark Survey were collected from September 2013 through December 2013, with 881 NACE members participating in the survey, for a response rate of 44.1 percent. Details about the survey are available at www.naceweb.org/surveys/career-services.aspx.

A Windsor in GTA San Andreas.
|GTA San Andreas
|Vehicle type
|Civilian car
|Body style
|2-door sports convertible
|2 (driver and passenger)
The Windsor is two-door sports convertible featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
The Windsor is designed as a 1960s to early 1970s classic European convertible sports car, appearing with either its black canvas top up or down. Originally designed to mimic the late-model Jaguar E-Type, the car was further redesigned during GTA San Andreas' development, resulting in a final form with a front end more similar to that of a 1966–1968 Ferrari 330 GTS or a Ferrari 365.
The Windsor is a very fast car; however, it does not match up to some of the "elite" cars. The Windsor's engine is very loud, giving out a thoarty roar, sounding more like a V8 than the four cylinder engine that came in all Alfa Spiders or the 6 cylinder/V12 that came in the all Jaguar E-Types, but acceleration and speed is on par. Cornering is very difficult, as the car seems to be much heavier than it looks, and the car tends to subtly fishtail or drift, despite running at mid speeds, though experienced players can control its drifting capabilities.
The Windsor can be modified at a TransFender, but is only offered a bare minimum of modification options:
Italicized pricing denotes prices at the Las Venturas TransFender, which charges 20% more except Colors.
- An early iteration of the Windsor, with proportions more similar to that of a Jaguar E-Type (sporting a longer front end) and shielded headlights, is depicted on a hung picture inside the Driving School.
- The default radio station in the Windsor is Master Sounds 98.3.
- Spawns around the western half of Los Santos.
- Spawns while riding a PCJ-600 in Rodeo, Los Santos (Wednesday).
- Available at the Easter Basin docks in San Fierro for import for $28,000 on Wednesdays after completing the first export list.
- Spawns often driving a ZR-350 in Queens, San Fierro (Friday/Saturday).
- Commonly spawned along The Strip in Las Venturas.
- Found parked outside the sex shop after exiting the shop during "Key to Her Heart". The car may have been intended to be the player's replacement vehicle in an event their earlier vehicle disappears after the player exits the sex shop.
- Available in pink as a chase vehicle outside Madd Dogg's Crib near the end of "A Home in the Hills".
See also
- Jugular E and Jug Swinger, GTA London 1969 and GTA London 1961 cars with a similar body design, based on the Jaguar E-Type.

The Scents of Success In the Carmel, California, showroom of Ajne perfumery, the ambience manages to be both opulently baroque and coolly high tech, with filigreed flacons and gilt-edged antiques surrounding a computer that helps visitors choose the right fragrance for their personality and body chemistry. But downstairs in the lab, the atmosphere turns clinical. Here, co-owner Jane Hendler blends essential oils into what she calls liquid art. This morning she lines up 48 different oils—vials of lavender, sandalwood, pink grapefruit, agarwood (about $1,800 an ounce wholesale, more costly than gold)—and, working quietly with pipettes and beakers, produces a new batch of the signature fragrance she developed exclusively for Rob Lowe.
For Jane and her husband and co-owner, Rex Rombach, this 21st-century perfumery, with its clientele of celebrities, hotels and spas, is the culmination of a dream they had one evening nine years ago on California's Mount Shasta. As the couple sat by the fireplace in a rustic cabin, they talked long into the night about wanting to find a deeper level of meaning in their work. Jane, a marketing executive for a jewelry-design company, shared childhood memories of breathing in the heady scents of roses, lilacs and magnolias growing near her grandmother's house. Then she said aloud something she'd been mulling for a while: "I want to be a perfumer."
Rex, the owner of a hair-products distribution firm, confessed a dream of his own: He longed to grow things and work with his hands. The couple started fantasizing about making perfume from the oils of organic plants they would cultivate on a three-acre property they owned near Carmel. Eight months later, Jane quit her job and enrolled in the Santa Cruz, California, College of Botanical Healing Arts to become a master essential-oil therapist. Rex sold his company, and they turned their land into an organic farm planted with lavender, bergamot and yuzu. In 2005, with a $750,000 initial investment, they launched their company, Ajne (ajne.com), from a 300-square-foot store in Carmel. Rex took charge of the accounts and designed the recyclable packaging. Jane hired her best friend, Kathy Pape, as the public relations director. Pape reached out to her Hollywood and media connections, and Ajne took off. "The first year was idyllic," Jane says.
Hoping to boost sales, they relocated to Carmel's swankiest street, Ocean Avenue; that set them back more than $96,000 in annual rent. But the move did not produce the anticipated revenue, and the pair fought constantly about how to expand the business. On one occasion, Rex grew so frantic about the company's finances, he wrote Jane a lengthy resignation letter (though he never actually gave it to her). "There were plenty of times one of us slept in the guest cottage," Jane says. Finally, just as each was almost ready to quit, they agreed to a radical scale-back.
Today their showroom is in a different Carmel location: on Mission Street, where the rent is more reasonable. Their accounts look a lot healthier—$800,000 in gross revenues for 2010 and a 5,000 percent increase in Internet sales. And both say their personal relationship has deepened. "There's comfort, excitement and joy in creating together," says Jane.
"I love spending time with Jane and taking on challenges together," says Rex. "She grabs on to the joy of life."
At the end of her morning blending session, Jane leaves her lab and bounds up the stairs to Rex's office. "Try this," she says, dabbing scent on his wrists. They both sniff, and Jane nods approval: Rob Lowe will be so pleased.
The Cupcake Couple
One night in April 2008, Pam Turkin returned to Detroit from a business trip in New York carrying a box of cupcakes from the Magnolia Bakery. "There are people waiting in line there and spending $3 for one!" she told her husband, Todd. An avid baker ("It's an art form for me," says Pam), she had been observing the country's cupcake craze during her travels and had noted that no one was selling the treats in Michigan. So, she thought, Why not the Turkins? That night she told Todd, "We've got to do this!"

I am currently running CentOS 5 on a server that has a built-in CDROM drive. I currently have a setup where
/media/cdrom is automatically mounted by autofs as needed and I am exporting
/media/cdrom via NFS. I need to be able to unmount this cdrom, eject it, and put in a new one without breaking anything, but this doesn't seem to work. Is there a better way to do this (noting that I have very little control over the server that is attempting to mount
/media/cdrom via NFS)?
I am currently running CentOS 5 on a server that has a built-in CDROM drive. I currently have a setup where
The problem is that when you want to export a directory via NFS, the Linux NFS server "hangs on" to the exported directory as if it were a process running with an open file descriptor in that directory, preventing the mountpoint from being unmounted (well, technically, the kernel is doing this in the nfs kernel module). You'd have to shut down the NFS server, unmount the CD (or tell autofs to unmount it), insert the new CD, then restart the NFS server. Hopefully, you can do this in the time before the NFS client times out.
It would be considerably easier to just mount ISO images, as Nils suggested.

This is how I cook Thanksgiving in our little Shasta trailer out in the middle of nowhere.
1 Rock Cornish game hens, thawed
3 stalks of celery, chopped
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cups toasted croutons
1 slice of sandwich ham (or pancetta, if you're serious), diced
1/2 stick butter, melted
1 bunch fresh sage
1 bunch fresh thyme
1 lemon
salt and pepper
Mix the first four ingredients together. Mix in butter, the juice of half a lemon and a little water (or wine or stock or beer) until the dressing clumps together. Chop 1 tablespoon of sage and strip 1 teaspoon of thyme leaves and mix in.
Line a pan with foil and smear with butter. Pat the stuffing into the pan. Rub the hens with lemon juice, put the squeezed rind and the remaining herbs in the cavities. Place the hens on the stuffing and cook for about 40–45 minutes at 350 degrees, basting occasionally with the remaining butter.
You'll have the perfect dinner for Thanksgiving camping.

Heading toward the determination of the winner of the 2013-14 Learfield Sports Directors' Cup, gostanford.com will provide a progression of each of Stanford's 19 consecutive victories. Here is the 18th, in 2011-12:
Directors' Cup No. 18 (2011-12) | 2011-12 Season In Photos
A DAY BEFORE the Fiesta Bowl, David Shaw, Stanford's Bradford M. Freeman Director of Football, was asked what he will miss most about Andrew Luck, perhaps the greatest quarterback in school history. It was to be Luck's final game.
"There's not one thing," Shaw said. "He's a future College Football Hall of Famer. There's nothing that he doesn't do well.
"It's been an unbelievable four years with him -- his leadership, his ability to be an ultimate competitor, to stay even keel. For that guy to have that drive and fire and still think so clearly in high-pressure situations with all the things we put on his plate ... he's one of a kind."
Luck had the opportunity to leave Stanford after the 2010 season, but he chose to remain for one more year and earn his degree in architectural design. He served as an example to other athletes in how a star can arrange his priorities and dedicate himself to academics and the college experience.
His final season ended with a 41-38 overtime Fiesta Bowl loss, closing an 11-2 season. Luck hit 27 of 31 passes for 347 yards and two touchdowns in his final game before heading to the NFL. It was a difficult loss, but Luck did not sulk. Instead, he consoled teammates and walked off the field with his arm around teammate Michael Thomas, a former high school rival from his hometown of Houston. Both were smiling.
Success on the football field helped give Stanford a head start in capturing its 18th consecutive Learfield Sports Directors' Cup , with 1384.25 points. The Cardinal scored in 25 sports, with the lowest-scoring five women's sports omitted due to the maximum of 10 allowed.
For four years, the Stanford women's soccer team won in record proportions, going 95-4-4 overall and 53-0-1 at home.
All it needed was only a championship to justify its place among the greats. Mission accomplished.
Teresa Noyola's header in the 53rd minute of the 2011 NCAA College Cup final in Kennesaw, Ga., was enough to give Stanford a 1-0 victory over Duke and stamp the Cardinal as one of the greatest teams of all-time.
"We've shown great character to not let the heartbreaks of the last two seasons catch up," Noyola said. "Not many teams can bounce back from heartbreaks like that. That in itself shows great character."
Stanford had reached the previous two NCAA finals, going undefeated in regular-season play before losing 1-0 each time – both heartbreakers. But the character learned from those experiences got the Cardinal over the top. There was no better example than the effort Camille Levin displayed in setting up Noyola 's goal.
Levin was tackled and stumbled, but kept possession as she attempted another cross. This one was blocked by a defender, knocking both players down. But Levin got up first and continued her run.
With two defenders bearing down on her, she struck a second cross, this time finding Noyola, Stanford's third consecutive Hermann Trophy winner as college soccer's best player, who wide open at the far post for the winner.
Stanford would advance to five consecutive College Cups (soccer's final four) and reach fantastic heights with a 73-match home unbeaten streak and 44-match conference winning streak spanning from 2008-13. The home unbeaten streak was on its sixth season and was the second-longest in NCAA Division I history and the conference winning streak was the third-longest.
* * *
More highlights from 2011-12:

This time of the year always bring a fullness of happiness and sadness to our CTU community. Thursday, May 16, we celebrated the 45th annual commencement for the 2013 class. We have prepared our graduates to go out into the world and do the work that God has called them to do. As stated in our mission, we prepare effective leaders for the Church, ready to witness to Christ's good news of justice, love, and peace. We say now to our graduates, "Go now and become the overflowing spirit of God as a campus minister, DRE, or leader of the Church. Foremost, continue to be the engagers in ministry in the United States and around the world."
The CTU community, along with the graduates, families, and friends, celebrated this vast achievement. The feelings that arise at this time of the year are bittersweet; there is the sadness that the relationships that you have built are changing. But we at CTU know that this part of the graduate's journey is not the end but a continuation -- they are moving on to new beginnings and their future is blazing bright. We at CTU are grateful that we had them here with us. Congratulations to the class of 2013!
Celebrating My First Palm Sunday!
As I sat in the pew of St. Thomas Catholic Church in Hyde Park and anticipated all the glory of the celebration of Jesus Christ's entry into Jerusalem, I was excited! This Sunday before Easter marks the beginning of Holy Week. We started off as a community at the front of the church and blessed the palms and then entered the sanctuary to begin our Journey with Jesus Christ. There are other factors that make this first Palm Sunday for me special, not only has the church had a major change by electing a new Pope, Pope Francis but I am also in the middle of a new beginning. I have been going through the process of becoming Catholic since November of last year and my big exciting day is in the horizon, I will take my sacraments and become Catholic Easter eve at the Easter Vigil. To say that I am excited is an understatement but to say I am ready to live the life of a Christian and follow the teachings of Jesus Christ would be accurate. In the reading of the Passion on Palm Sunday we sat intensely and as one and heard of Christ triumph entrance into Jerusalem, in which his supporters greeted him as the coming messiah, the last supper with his disciples and hours after when he was betrayed by Judas and arrested on Holy Thursday, the crucifixion of Christ came on Good Friday and the resurrection on Easter Sunday. After the reading the pastor gave his homely and he asked that we reflect on Jesus and his death on the cross. I decided to take the symbolic approach to this reading for myself. I look at Jesus on the cross and his suffering for the life that he gave all of us. The cross represents the call to absolute surrender, in my journey that I am on, I have surrendered my heart and soul to Jesus Christ. My heart is full at this time of excitement and the feeling of being part of a community and sharing this wonderful event in my life with loving and supportive friends from my CTU community and my personal life. Words cannot describe the joy and peacefulness that I am feeling, I have encountered some people here at CTU that are defiantly god's children and their light shines so brightly that I have opened up my heart to receive their offerings, their light, Jesus light.

The first month of the New Year has come and gone, where exactly did the month of January go? It seems like our spirits were so jolly a few weeks ago, we were drinking champagne and saying "Happy New Year" to everyone we came across (not me because I don't partake in alcoholic beverages). Continuing on the theme of some of my previous blogs, what I aspire for the New Year, is to treat my fellow man or woman with respect and hope that they reciprocate and do the same. We started off the New Year here at CTU, showing how our love and respect for one another is still alive and well. We had a celebration for one of our employees, she is a fixture at CTU, and she has actually been with the CTU community for over 20 years. Her spirits were low and the community, which is CTU, noticed and put into motion a flash mob celebration. The reason I bring this up is because although initially this was for one person, we all ended up celebrating and remembering why we love CTU as much as we do. This was one of those real fuzzy moments that you hope would linger for more than just a few minutes, and it did – this was two weeks ago and we are all still talking about how much it meant to all of us. Remember, treat or at least try to treat your fellow man with kindness and love, it is really not that hard.
This question was posed to me a couple of weeks ago by a CTU student. I stopped and thought to myself, "How do I answer this question?" I wondered whether I would be able to articulate my feeling and thoughts in a way they would reveal my true self. The truth to that question was, "of course."
Some would think that this is a loaded question, but in reality it is a simple one. I walk with my spirituality every day by consciously treating my fellow man or woman the way that I want to be treated. It sounds so easy but it can be a struggle sometimes. We are so busy with our everyday lives that we do not see each other; I mean really see each other. Think about this: we all have encounters daily that irritate us and sometimes we do not react in the Christian way. The thing is, we know better. We know how to love our neighbor but we don't always display that. We look at TV and see the hardship of someone we don't even know and we exude sympathy and empathy for them, but we cannot treat the people we stand next to every day with kindness and love.
For me, walking in my spirituality is knowing that this thing we call life is a privilege and it should always be treated that way. It is my inner path, the place I feel the safest, and where my spiritual well-being lives. I am not saying we should all walk around like Pollyanna, but the truth is, would it be so bad?
Stop and ask yourself: "How do I walk in my spirituality?" See what answer you give and then go deeper and ask yourself whether you live this spirituality every day, some days or never? There is no wrong or right answer; just something for all of us to ponder.

Reading week has come and gone. I am hoping that your time away was spent catching up on reading that you had for your classes and or taking some well deserved time off to reflect. Many of you have 2, 3 4, and even 5 classes. I have one class—one, that is all. So clearly I really have no reason to have lost my mind a few weeks ago. Here is a funny story that some of you might be able to relate to. But if you can't no worries I could not either, I am just hoping you have a good laugh.
I first met Melissa last year when she came to CTU for a visit with her friend. I gave them a tour, and they both went to sit in on a class taught by Professor Laurie Brink. Now Melissa is a new student here at CTU, and also working with our Enrollment Management department. Melissa is working with me and in her role as our department assistant, Melissa is awesome, funny, intelligent and most of all a great worker. Melissa sometimes helps me with filing. On this particular day she came to me and said that she could not find files for a few people. I looked at one of the documents and said to her, "Oh, I know where this person's file is," and then I got to the final few and I said "Oh, Melissa Carnall, She decided not to come." This is where it became clear that I was not dealing with a full deck of cards. To those of you who are paying close attention I was talking to Mellissa Carnall! I looked at her and saw a grin on her face. I saw this and I said "Oh, you know her?" The grin now became a full smile-- then I proceeded to say, "Oh, she is a friend of yours?" Melissa just looked at me. This time her brow was furrowed and she was laughing. I looked at her and we both just fell over laughing. She thought I was playing but I was serious, very serious. We both repeated the story and again just kept laughing at the sheer disbelief that all of that had taken place. We were both bent over in a belly crunch screeching laugh. We then decided to take this comic show on the road, and headed to find Angela. I knew that Angela would see my plight and know that I was not crazy. We told Angela the story and she too laughed. We realized that I had a momentary brain lapse. Angela quickly put it all into prospective and said, "Valerie, you just have too much on your mind!" I appreciate Angela and her words but even today, I'm not so sure! While we take our studies seriously at CTU, moments like this remind us not to take ourselves too seriously!
Valerie D. Holloway | Enrollment Management- Assistant to the Director
We have now been back to school at CTU for 3 weeks and it seems like we never ended. I am thrilled to walk through the halls of the third floor and see the students studying, having a bite to eat or just chatting with new and old friends that they have met in the atrium. By definition an atrium is a large open space within a building usually with a glass roof; I pose this question to you - have any of you looked up to see that our atrium has a glass roof? This glass roof lets in all the glorious sunshine that the world has to offer us daily. At CTU we take those little special tidbits of life and we share them with each other, our community. CTU widely uses that word to describe our humble existence as community; I am hoping that since you have started your academic exploration here you have adopted that word as well. The CTU community has welcomed back some old favorite faces, like Eduardo, Christopher, Kristin, and Saleha and some new ones like Melissa, Bernadette, and Alexis. If I have not mentioned some of you in this blog, no worries you know who you are. I just want to say, we are blessed to have you here!

Spoon, Stovall to Become New Owners of Menifee 24/7
Doug Spoon and Shelli Stovall, staff members with Menifee 24/7 for the last year, will become co-own...
Premier Media Group, recently formed by Spoon and Stovall, will purchase Menifee 24/7 from Clear Digital Media, Inc. and its owner, Steve Johnson. The website was created by Johnson in 2004 and, under the leadership of Johnson and sales and marketing manager Tina Walker, has become a leading news source for all things Menifee.
That will remain the website's primary objective, said Spoon, a 35-year veteran journalist who was named Editor of Menifee 24/7 in September.
"It has been my extreme pleasure to get to know the people of Menifee and to serve them as a contributing writer and later editor of Menifee 24/7," Spoon said. "I have loved every minute of the 14 months I've lived here. I have found Menifee to be a vibrant community with a wonderful, diverse population and a cherished legacy.
"There's a lot going on here, from the senior community in the Sun City core area to our city officials, from the many new young families here to our dedicated business owners and community servants. The people of Menifee have a story to tell, and we will continue to tell it to the best of our ability."
Spoon will continue to serve as editor of the website along with his responsibilities as co-owner of the site. Stovall will serve as co-owner with a focus on advertising sales and marketing.
"It has been a true blessing to work for Menifee 24/7 for the past eight months," Stovall said. "I am looking forward to taking the relationships I have made with this wonderful community and making Menifee 24/7 the best news source for the residents here."
Under the leadership of Johnson and Walker, Menifee 24/7 has grown to become a popular news source in town, attracting nearly 50,000 readers per month. Its Facebook page has more than 6,600 fans and its email subscription program continues to grow. Menifee 24/7 also is active in community service, hosting a candidates forum this fall and providing ongoing support for the Menifee Valley Community Cupboard.
Johnson and Walker, now based in San Diego, will continue to focus on the many other websites that are part of Clear Digital Media, Inc.
"Shelli and I will forever be grateful to Steve and Tina for giving us this opportunity," Spoon said. "We value our friendship and their vast experience in Internet sales and marketing. We thank them for all they have done and continue to do for the City of Menifee."
Spoon and Stovall would appreciate any feedback readers have concerning this website and ideas for future coverage. They can be reached at the following email addresses:

- 2 teaspoons salt
- 3 cups whole wheat flour
- 2-1/2 to 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add egg, oil, syrup, salt, whole wheat flour and 1 cup all-purpose flour. Beat on medium speed until smooth. Stir in enough remaining all-purpose flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky).
- Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Punch dough down. Shape into loaves. Place in three greased 8x4-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 40 minutes. Bake at 350° for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool. Brush with melted butter. Yield: 3 loaves (12 slices each).
Reviews for Maple Wheat Bread
"Wonderful flavor! I did have to bake it a little longer than recommended."
"This bread is amazing! So soft and flavorful. The crust is wonderful!!! Rises quickly and bakes up beautifully!!! :o)"
"I would have given 6 stars, if that was an option. This is the most tender bread I have ever made!!!!! I mixed the dough in my KitchenAid stand mixer. The dough hook did a fine job. I put hot water in the mixing bowl first and let stand for a minute to warm up the bowl. I dumped out that water, then added the correct amount of water at the right temperature. I made one 8 x 4 sized loaf and five 3 x 51/2 sized loaves. I baked them all at the same time for about 25 minutes. Will certainly make again!!!"
"I've made this 3 times now and my husband insists that I make it again. I made it in small pans, bake and freeze, then take out as needed."
"Excellent. I made the recipe as is except that I made it with the help of my Professional KitchenAide mixer, it came together real nice and the KitchenAide does a great job of kneading dough. This is definitely one recipe I will make often."

That New Book Smell
When bibliophiles celebrate print they often talk about the weight or feel of paper, about color, binding, typeface, design… but scent?
Leave it to print purists and publishers Gerhard Steidl and Karl Lagerfeld to pay attention to the often-overlooked, olfactory component of the print experience. It was Lagerfeld who first pointed out the scent of print to Steidl, which led to a collaboration between Steidl, Wallpaper* magazine and master perfumer Geza Schoen to create Paper Passion perfume—"For Booklovers."
The scent debuted this week at at the Wallpaper* Handmade exhibition in Milan, which runs through April 22 at the headquarters of men's clothing designer Brioni, and it will be available to the public on May 30.
The perfume comes hidden inside the pages of a Steidl-published book, designed by Lagerfeld, which includes various odes to the printed page and its characteristic scent.
As Lagerfeld has said, "The smell of a freshly printed book is the best smell in the world." Backlit touch-screens may be the future, but the future doesn't smell nearly as nice.
