I setup a samba4 test server on Debian Wheezy using the packages from sernet. Basic configuration was not too complicated and it seems to have set up a running server. I can successfully
kinit Administrator, or
id Administrator,
getent passwd etc. all through the nsswitch winbind. Host resolution for the ldap and Kerberos servers also returns the localhost. Yes, it seems to run like a charm, until you want to do something with it.
root@nfs4:~# net ads info ads_connect: No logon servers ads_connect: No logon servers Didn't find the ldap server! root@nfs4:~# host -t SRV _ldap._tcp.mgr _ldap._tcp.mgr has SRV record 0 100 389 nfs4.mgr. root@nfs4:~# smbclient //nfs4/netlogon -UAdministrator -c 'ls' Enter Administrator password: Domain=[AD] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 4.1.4-SerNet-Debian-7.wheezy] . D O Thu Feb 20 15:13:27 2014 .. D O Thu Feb 20 15:13:41 2014 root@nfs4:~#
Using these keywords you'll find various related issues. Some of them were solved. I tried several without solving the issue or even gaining any more insight. Any ideas how to troubleshoot this situation systematically?
I have a decent experience running samba3 with LDAP and doing Kerberos for PAM in POSIX. But for samba4 and ADS these are my first clumsy steps.

Shuji waited, the girl's sudden entrance had spurred the perfect moment, but he'd have to wait, normally conversations like this were extremely private. He could use the lack of camera's and listening devices to reveal himself.
The only problem was the girl, she was a liability he'd have to take. But...something didn't feel right with her, she was different, he saw it, but it was purposefully masked, and masked well. He saw....a facade, yet, he was unsure...it didn't matter.
Then it was time, Shuji slid out from the shadows behind Diath, he grunted. "You need to hire better security Diath," he said in his quiet, low, menacing, and drawling voice. He had one of his blades at the Chancellor's throut, the other pointed at the girl, "don't say anything, don't even twitch." He said to the girl.
Shuji slowly slid the blade away from the Diath's throut, "my, my, you've lost your touch. Being a politic has lessened you," he said mockingly. He still kept his blades out, he had the feeling the girl wasn't the ditsy type who couldn't hold a blaster worth a hoot.
"But in you...I see the potential to see the Force die, to turn away from its will..."
"You are beautiful to me, exile. A dead spot in the Force, an emptiness in which its will might be denied."
"But no Jedi ever made the choice you did. To sever ties so completely, so utterly, that it leaves a wound in the Force..."
"I would have killed the galaxy to preserve you...You are more precious than you know..."-now...it's verbatim!-A quote from Darth Traya (Kreia)

TV Star chats with Zach Roerig about his role as Matt Donovan on The Vampire Diaries and he provides some great insight into why audiences gravitate to his very human character (and why there's room for Matt to grow), the success of the show, and his plans for the filming break.
What do you see as Matt's function/purpose in the VD universe and specifically when it comes to Elena?
Matt is a constant reminder that, although incredibly strange, Mystic Falls still has some semblance of the typical American town. Up to this point he is a pretty true-to-life depiction of your all-American boy, and who wouldn't want to see how the all-American boy will react when placed in such a bizarre situation? In terms of Elena, Matt will always connect her to the way things used to be before her parents' death, the arrival of vampires, and every other crazy thing that she has been subjected to in the series.

Thanks to the eagle-eyed folks at Media Blvd: Ian Somerhalder for this piece of awesome: Rolling Stone's pop culture critic Rob Sheffield examines The Vampire Diaries in the magazine's newest issue (Black-Eyed Peas on the cover). Click the image for an easily readable version and make sure you pick up a copy! And while you're at it, please pick up Sheffield's book Love Is a Mix Tape, which made me sob my guts out (on public transportation! without shame!).
As for the piece itself – agree? Disagree?

The April 19th issue of TV Guide Magazine features a full-page interview with Katerina Graham. The piece touches on the choices Bonnie will have to make (and includes cool quotes from Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson) and Kat's career. Take heart, Bonnie Bennett fans – your favorite witch returns in episode 19, Miss Mystic Falls. Thanks to Denise for the scan – and we agree about the "bewitching" photo!

We're feeling all sorts of nostalgia right now with the chatter/photos coming out of Covington, Georgia – season finale filming is almost done. You'll notice we haven't been blogging said photos or some of the recent finale spoilers. This was a judgement call on our part. The photos are spoilery and showcasing them here on the front page of the site seemed unfair to those who really want to be surprised by what's coming. That being said, if you eat spoilers for breakfast, it's a total free-for-all in the Spoiler Zone of our forums. But keep in mind: Take everything with a grain of salt.
As we tweeted this morning, The Vampire Diaries: The Complete First Season is available for pre-order on DVD and Blu-Ray. The U.S. Amazon store has had a Vampire Diaries DVD pre-order listing for a while, but the Blu-Ray listing seems to be a recent addition. Still no concrete release date or U.S. cover art but we expect that will be surfacing soon. For those who asked about the pricing – as Craig pointed out, Amazon has a pre-order price guarantee. If the price drops before the item ships, Amazon honors the lower price.
You'll notice the U.K. listing features cover art – we don't know for 100% certain that it's legit. We'll clarify as soon as we know for certain.

Thanks, CW, for helping take the edge off the "Is it Thursday yet?" wait. Two new webclips for this week's episode have been uploaded to the CW's Vampire Diaries site. You can check 'em out there (U.S. only) or check 'em out below, courtesy of TVDItalia. (We will post the official CW versions once they're up on YouTube.) In the first clip, we have Damon questioning Stefan's efforts to get back on the wagon (so to speak) and the second clip has Alaric and Elena talking secrets.
UPDATE: Official CW embeds now in place!

IESB.net has a lengthy interview with Candice Accola, touching on everything from her early career and her music to her role as Caroline Forbes on The Vampire Diaries. She talks about working closely with Zach Roerig, the cast members she hopes to have more scenes with in the future, and her plans for the cast's two-month break before second season filming.
IESB: With such talented people behind the camera as well as in front of it, did you realize early on that you were making something special that was going to connect with viewers, or was the show's huge success just totally surprising to you?
Candice: I feel like the answer should be that it was totally surprising, but it wasn't. Everyone collectively put their best foot forward, when it came to shooting the pilot and shooting the show. Everyone comes to work with their game face on and everyone wants to see this succeed because everyone genuinely cares. We all work on the show, and we're doing the seasons finale, but we're still scrambling for the scripts. We're just as attached to the work as the viewers are. It's surprising and exciting, but we were just more hopeful. I never sat there and was like, "Oh, we've got this one in the bag," but there was just such a great comradery and so much heart and soul put into the pilot, and everyone genuinely cared and worked so hard, that I really hoped it would come out the other end and shine, and it did. I could not be more grateful to be a part of it.

Little late with this, what with Amazon posting the episode so late yesterday, but how 'bout Vampire Diaries Thursday night? The ratings for Let the Right One In are much better than last week's, to say the least. From the CW press release, courtesy of TV By the Numbers:
The CW's freshman hit THE VAMPIRE DIARIES scored dramatic week-to-week gains, with increases of 26% in women 18-34 (2.4/8), 20% in adults 18-34 (1.8/6), 25% in women 18-49 (2.0/6), 23% in adults 18-49 (1.6/5), 33% in female teens (2.8/11) and 25% in total viewers (3.5 million), according to preliminary live plus same day Nielsen ratings for Thursday, April 8, 2010. THE VAMPIRE DIARIES posted its largest total audience since 2/11/10.
Competitively, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES won the 8:00-9:00p.m. hour among female teens, and tied for second among women 18-34.
Let's be sure we keep up those figures for this Thursday's episode, Under Control, yeah? (Watch the extended promo.) And if you're looking for good Let the Right One In discussion, our forum's bursting with it, so join in! And if you want to rate the episode, vote in our poll.
And for those looking for streaming/downloads…
- Amazon (U.S. only)
- iTunes
- iTunes UK (U.K. only)
- Watch for free on CTV (Canada only)
As a side note, the response to Let the Right One In has been tremendous across the board. Yesterday was the busiest day, traffic-wise, that this site has ever had, and the enthusiasm for Vampire Diaries seems to be at an all-time high. Only five episodes left in the season, guys – and we don't think the show will disappoint. Let's make every Thursday count through the May 13th finale.

A few months ago, we were approached by the fabulous Leah Wilson, editor-in-chief for Smart Pop Books, about contributing an essay to their planned Vampire Diaries anthology, due for release October 2010. Well, one thing led to another, and we're so excited to finally share the good news with you…
For those unfamiliar, Smart Pop Books is an imprint that specializes in pop culture essay collections. You may know them for their great Firefly/Serenity-centric volumes edited by Whedonverse writer Jane Espenson, but they've done several centered around books and comics (Twilight, Batman, Percy Jackon, The Uglies), film (James Bond, The Matrix, Star Wars), and of course television shows (Supernatural, Buffy/Angel, Veronica Mars, 24, Lost, Gilmore Girls). Contributors to the Smart Pop series have included many names you'll recognize from all of the above mediums.
The list of contributors and essay topics for A Visitors Guide to Mystic Falls is still being finalized, but we can tell you that there is a theme to who is contributing, and they'll each be discussing a particular facet of the Vampire Diaries TV 'verse. (And, yes, some of the topics and contributors have us in geek heaven. Just sayin'.)
So while we can't tell you much about the contents of the collection (yet), we can let you in some trivia associated with the cover (which was a fun process!):
- Leah searched high and low for a florist who could supply vervain, but we reassured her that the plant chosen was okay because (show fact!) that wasn't vervain in Uncle Zach's basement either. Real vervain is just not pretty.
- The papers are actual 19th century American papers, chosen specifically for the shoot. The fact that "Thursday night" is clearly visible above the necklace is entirely accidental – but brilliant.
- We are far too pleased at having blood spattered over our names.
We'll have more information for you soon. In the meantime, you can show Smart Pop some love on Twitter (@smartpopbooks) and Facebook.

The fine folks over at Golfsmith have a few things that might be just right for your golf-crazed father. In fact, even if your Pop has no interest at all in this precision ball and club sport, he more than likely gets dressed every day, so he should be interested in some snazzy new clothes. That's why you need to know about this great new outfit from Puma.
California native Rickie Fowler, who was the number one ranked amateur golfer in the world for 36 weeks in 2007 and 2008 and was named the PGA Tour Rookie of the Year in 2010, has what you could call a signature look. Part of that signature look is the Puma Golf Tech Short Sleeve Polo. This bold beauty is made from 100% S. Cafe polyester yarns, which help fight odor with the power of coffee, and it features coolCell mesh panels strategically placed for maximum temperature control. Up front, the body of the shirt features a panel of Puma's dryCell fabric that helps wick away moisture and provide UPF 40+ protection from the sun.
To balance out the bold look of that bright orange shirt, the Puma Tech Six Pocket Pant is the perfect choice. Cut from a blend of 95% polyester and 5% Spandex with 3D Cell textured fabric for increased airflow. These pants feature UPF 50+ sun protection, dryCell moisture management, and a secret pocket in a pocket made special for that killer scorecard of yours.
The Puma Faas Lite Mesh Spikeless Golf Shoe is a flyweight (6.5-ounce) shoe made for the modern golfer, but isn't limited to just the greens. It is highly breathable thanks to its coolCell, single-layer mesh upper, and highly flexible thanks to the flex grooves incorporated into the sole. The Faas foam, which is a proprietary blend of foam and rubber, provides long-lasting resiliency, light weight, and maximum comfort. The Faas Lite shoe comes with two sets of laces so you can play the tonal angle or go for a pop of color.
For more information about this great gear from Puma, click on through to the Golfsmith website. For a more hands-on experience, you can visit one of the Bay Area Golfsmith locations illustrated on this map.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. ---- A trio of UAB volleyball players in Sam Serley, Rachel Fairbanks and Sam Skinner were named All-Conference USA selections, announced by the league office on Tuesday.
Serley, a senior, was named to the First Team All-C-USA for the second consecutive season, while junior Rachel Fairbanks and redshirt-freshman Sam Skinner each received a nod on the second team all-conference. In addition, Skinner was one of six players named to the all-freshman team and was the only freshman in the league named to either the first or second all-league squads.
Sam Serley, Sr., MB
Most recently, Serley reset the UAB record book, swatting her 548th block against Southern Miss over the weekend to break a record that was set back in 1992. She is just five blocks shy of resetting the single season record for blocks in a season. She also sits fourth all-time in C-USA with 550 career blocks.
Furthermore, Serley is just the second player in UAB history to reach both 1,000 kills and 500 blocks in a career.
Rachel Fairbanks, Jr., L
Fairbanks has flourished in the back row in her first year as the UAB libero. She finished second overall in C-USA in digs per set, averaging an even five and totaling 615 digs in 123 sets of game action.
The Katy, Texas native posted seven matches of 25-plus digs and committed just five reception errors in conference play. In addition, Fairbanks ranked 15th in aces per set (0.22).
Entering the C-USA Tournament, Fairbanks is just 17 digs shy of breaking Heather Thomas' single-season digs record of 631, set last season. Fairbanks is only the second player in school history to eclipse 600 digs in a season.
Fairbanks was also awarded the league's defensive player of the week award on two occasions this season.
Sam Skinner, R-Fr., OH

Why would the library be open from 0800-1300 on the days of home football games? We have parade and most people will be tailgating or something else. I think it should be later after the football game considering they're not over until like 1630. Maybe 1800-2300.
- November 11, 2012 at 11:02
I was curious as to if the library would consider opening up earlier on Sundays. I realize that there is a sizable portion of the corps that attends religious services, but I also know that an even larger portion of the corps either does not attend a religious service, or practices on their own. For me Sunday is a day where I can get a lot of studying done and I feel if the library were to open up sooner, it could give cadets such as myself the opportunity to study. Thank you very much for your time
- November 13, 2012 at 14:44
We have received some requests on our annual cadet survey for Sunday morning hours (although there've been more requests for Saturday hours, and we've just finished expanding those hours over several years). We've been a bit reluctant to add Sunday morning hours because we think a major segment of the Corps takes advantage of this time to sleep in, and another major segment attends religious services. Our thinking was that the small number of remaining cadets who wanted to study would be able to find a quiet place in academic buildings and transfer to the library after lunch. Staffing is another issue, since we would need to find cadets assistants willing to forego sleep and church. We'll investigate the staffing issue. In the meantime, what do others think? If you wish the library would be open on Sunday morning, please chime in now.

"It's really fun cause they got all the cool rides," says 7-year-old Parker Johnson.
Business at Beech Bend Park, which is home to more than 30 rides, Is booming.
The amusement park says they started getting busier when Kentucky Kingdom closed down three years ago.
They say business has gone up 10 percent so far from last year alone.
"We grow at a slow pace here, steady, and at a pace we can afford to repay over a reasonable number of years so we plan on being here for a long, long time to come," says Charlotte Gonzalez, the park manager at Beech Bend.
Several guests at the park say they came out because they like the family friendly environment and how close it is to home.
"I think we need more of them but I'm glad this one is close enough that we don't have to pack and do a lot of planning and we can just get up and go so I really like it," says Suetta Patterson, a resident from Franklin.
"Of course it's not nearly as big as Kentucky Kingdom was, when I was younger, we went to Kentucky Kingdom and had a lot of fun, but this is nice, I like it here," says Jamie Hutchins, a resident from Lebanon.
Beech Bend says since they are the only amusement park in Kentucky, they want to make sure they represent the state well.
"We are family owned, it hurts me right here (patted her heart) if our guests leave and they are unhappy, we really try hard to please our guests and make them happy while they are here and provide them with a safe and fun experience," says Gonzalez.
While the rides and attractions may have changed through the decades, Beech Bend Park has been around since the late 1940s.
Beech Bend also says they have plans to continue to build and grow and will have a new surprise coming out next year.

Do you know someone who has dyslexia or thinks s/he might? Does s/he have access to the resources s/he needs? Most likely NOT.
A pivotal bill is up for vote. Please write your congressional representative urging him/her to support the House Resolution on Dyslexia #456. Rep. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana has made a proposal that may change the way Americans understand learning disabilities. Dyslexia is currently not recognized as a disability by the Americans with Disabilities Act and therefore not IDEA either, for which schools are required to provide services to struggling students.
Over the past twenty years, I have been appalled by the lack of appropriate supports for students who are likely dyslexic but do not qualify for special education services. Up until recently, in fact, most dyslexics were not diagnosed until college or adulthood. Dyslexia can drastically affect the direction a person takes with his/her life in terms of school success, areas of study, career plans, and overall quality of life.
If you would like to read more about the bill or dyslexia in general, log onto email@example.com and read more from world-renowned researchers like Sally and Bennett Shaywitz.
If you care about the future of our children and adults with learning disabilities that are not properly serviced, write your congressional representative now!

A Thomasville man was arrested and charged for stealing two cars and taking them to a recycling center.
Michael Wayne Oliver, 41, of 501 Dillon St. in Thomasville, was charged with two counts of larceny of a motor vehicle and one count of obtaining property by false pretense.
Davidson County sheriff's deputies say Oliver stole a 1990 Toyota and a 1990 Chevrolet in the Reedy Creek community. They say Oliver then took the vehicles to a recycling center.
The cars were reported stolen in August.
Oliver was also served with an outstanding warrant for arrest for second degree trespassing.
Oliver was given a $5,500 secured bond. His court dates include Oct. 23 in Thomasville for his trespassing charge and Oct. 25 in Lexington for charges related to the motor vehicle theft.

How We Got Here: It could've all gone much worse for the markets, but after the ECB meeting, after the U.S. jobs report, the equities market were looking pretty sweet. The Dow Industrials, Transports, and S&P 500 all set fresh records on Friday; hey, even the Nasdaq Composite is only 14% off its record high from back in the dot-com days.
If there is any celebration, it is not a widely attended one. Total trading volume on Friday, 5.2 billion shares, was the 9th weakest single session this year. For all the records, people still aren't pouring into the stock market.
Coming Up: Microsoft and Sony hold news events at the E3 videogame conference in Los Angeles. A year after both companies unveiled their new consoles, this year's conference will focus on games. Meanwhile, markets are closed in France and Germany, among other places, for holiday.

Then we went to City Tavern, where our founding fathers fermented the American Revolution over tankards of ale. We had turkey pot pie and pepper soup paired with Yard's Brewery's revolutionary beers. Yum.

Getting The Career You Want
filling up your rolodexPeople that are part of your network should not be referred to as "contacts" mainly because of its connotation. Contacts are usually viewed as people who can grant you favors. When you talk to these contacts , especially for the first time, ask for information, not a job or favor. Although you are not looking to become best friends with these people, you want them on your side. Remember, people are usually looking to network with you as much as you are with them.
Setting up a network of key people does not come easy. Like everything else, it requires time and effort. The most important point is to start somewhere. Remember that everybody is a friend of a friend of a friend, and that somewhere along the line, someone knows one of those friends.
do what you do bestFulfillment comes from motivation . These are the wise words that a business professor revealed to me in college. As long as you are doing what you enjoy and what you're good at, you'll be fine. Of course, you can take on a job just for the money, but is that really what you want to do? No. You want to be one of those people who is happy to wake up in the morning and go to work. Why? Because these people don't consider their work to be work.
Everything comes in due time. Finding out what a person does best and what they will enjoy doing for the next 40 years takes some consideration. Like one of the founders of AskMen.com said: I was in my mid-twenties when I realized what I wanted to do with my life . Working many jobs and getting diverse experience in many fields is not a waste of time; it simply means that you are fine-tuning your search by eliminating the line of long-term work that is not suited for you. Think of it as an investment where you profit from the compounding interest.
Many times, jobs will be offered to others that are probably not as qualified. Why? Probably because they showed more interest and willingness to learn. Wanting to learn, as well as ongoing personal professional advancement, is a major factor in the hiring process. Employers want employees to be knowledgeable, but they also need to see a thirst for constant improvement. These are motivated companies with big goals and they want the employees to fit this mold.
To sum up, it's imperative to keep an open mind about professional possibilities and opportunities out there. The perfect job may be just around the corner waiting for you...

A two-month long investigation led to the arrests of two New Castle teens who were selling heroin and marijuana in the community of Jefferson Farms, police said.
On Sept. 20, the New Castle County Drug Control Squad executed a search warrant at the home of the 17-year-old suspect's home in New Castle's Jefferson Farms community.
After raiding the home in the unit block of South Lunenburg Drive, police seized 667 bags of heroin, 24 bags of marijuana, a loaded revolver and arrested the juvenile and his accomplice, 18-year-old Brian Selby.
Police said that the 17-year-old male and Selby were retrieving heroin from a parked car in the driveway while they were under surveillance before the search warrant was executed.
When police executed the search warrant, they found the 17-year-old in the basement of the home, where they also found 22 grams of marijuana, a digital scale and a loaded revolver.
A search of the vehicle turned up an additional 30 grams of marijuana, 15.05 grams of heroin (667 bags) and different types of ammunition.
Police had received information that there had been an increase in vehicular activity and drugs were allegedly being sold from the residence, said Cpl. John Weglarz Sr.
The 17-year-old, who police said lives at the home on South Lunenburg Drive, was arrested and charged with conspiracy, possession of heroin, possession with the intent to deliver and possession of a firearm.
He was arraigned and committed to the New Castle County Juvenile Detention Center for lack of $70,500 cash bail.
Selby, who lives in the unit block of South Independence Boulevard in the community of Jefferson Farms, was also arraigned and charged.
Selby was committed to the Howard R. Young Correction Institute after failing to post $61,000 secured bail.

This was 10th-frame lightning -- and then some -- for rookie bowler Kari Hormann.
Kari hit her average of 95 in the ninth frame of her second game in the "Guys and Dolls" league Tuesday night at AMF Woodlake Lanes in Woodland Hills.
Then an amazing thing happened.
Kari unleashed some 10th-frame lightning -- a so-called phenomenon in which a bowler finishes his or her game with three straight highly unexpected strikes.
It was the first time that Kari had rolled three strikes in a row since she joined the league in December.
She was averaging a mere 78 after her first two weeks in the league, but she definitely found her groove on Tuesday.
Her three strikes in a row allowed her first-place team to pull out a narrow victory -- and she wasn't through.
Kari, bowling right-handed, then tacked on a fourth straight strike in the first frame of the third game en route to bowling a 140 -- 45 pins above her average and within eight pins of her career best. For good measure, Kari knocked down three more strikes in the game, giving her eight in her final two games.
Kari's score in her final game, with handicap, equated to a sizzling 258.
So what was Kari thinking after blasting her first "turkey," or three strikes in a row?
"I didn't think of anything," said Kari, smiling. "I was just out of breath. I was ready to jump up and down."
Kari opened the night by rolling a 114 and then bowled a 125 in the second game.
Her scores demonstrated her continual improvement since she joined the league.
"I had a lot of anxiety when I started," Kari said. "I was lucky to get a 60 [in a game]. I was ready to cry."
Her performance Tuesday drew accolades from teammate Tom Foley.
"You bowled excellently," Foley told her afterwards. "It was incredible. It was fun to watch."
Kari, a West Hills resident who turns 25 on Thursday, has become a big fan of the sport. "I really like it," Kari says. "I want to keep challenging myself."

Have you ever gone to look for something where you know you left it but it just isn't there? For example, you have a specific place where you hang your keys when you come in the door but for some unknown reason you go to get them on your way out again and they just aren't there.
Oftentimes, we can chalk this up to poor memory about where we put the object in the first place.
However, there have been countless reported cases in which an object have disappeared and then reappeared either in a strange and unexpected location or in a most unusual way. In fact, there are also cases where a person has seen said object reappear right in front of their eyes.
This is called the 'disappearing object phenomenon' (DOP). Although difficult to document and even more difficult to prove, DOP does happen. In one of the stories in my book, Glimpses 2: (it could happen to you!), a young couple could not find their baby's bottle. As the wife stood dumbfounded in the kitchen, her husband stood in the doorway. While he stood wondering where the bottle could possibly be, it suddenly dropped down from the ceiling right over his head!
I have had difficulty finding a lot of things over the years, especially if I put them in a place where they normally would not go due to being in a rush to do something else. However, there have been other instances that I truly wonder about because there are people who have experienced this phenomenon and have also had poltergeist activity or resident ghosts that like to play tricks on the living.

Looking back at Angels' top picks
The final moments on Aug. 16 are usually a little tenser.
But in their negotiations with their first pick in the 2010 draft, Kaleb Cowart, the Angels always knew what they were dealing with.
Either they had to pay or he was going to Florida State.
The Angels paid, and the deal got done early Monday with plenty of time to spare before the 9 p.m. local deadline to sign picks.
"Caleb spoke for himself," Angels director of scouting Eddie Bane said. "When he wanted to say something, he said it."
With Cowart being clear in what he wanted, the Angels coughed up the $2.3 million signing bonus and will get their top pick down to Arizona for rookie ball Tuesday.
"I can't tell you how excited I am. I'm completely thrilled to become an Angel," Cowart said. "...Every kid's dream is to play major league baseball. When they drafted me, I wanted to play then. It just takes time in this process."
The Angels have signed each of their top picks in the MLB Draft since the format was changed in 1987.
Click on the photo for a look back at the Angels' last 10 top picks for how they've done since draft day.

Fibromyalgia is a medical mystery, although studies are coming closer to figuring out the causes and ways to manage it. Anyone who has been diagnosed with fibromyalgia knows that it is a frustrating and sometimes hopeless quest for relief from pain. Opioid pain medications have been shown to be ineffective in treating fibromyalgia pain, so the accepted treatments at the moment are neuropathic medications such as Lyrica (pregabalin) and Neurontin (gabapentin), possibly combined with muscle relaxers, and something to help with sleep.
Fibromyalgia symptoms such as pain, insomnia, concentration problems, and fatigue can be extremely debilitating, especially during an exacerbation. Many people who have fibromyalgia look to alternative and complementary therapies simply because the current medication protocol often isn't enough to manage the symptoms.
Although there aren't a lot of scientific studies out there that test holistic approaches to managing fibromyalgia, there is a lot of anecdotal evidence out there that makes pursuing some of these therapies worthwhile.
My personal sixteen year experience with fibromyalgia has led me to embrace many different modalities over the course of the years. It's not a perfect science, but for me it helps to move even when the pain is severe. Inactivity seems to inflame the pain even more. So, yoga, for me, is one way to give my aching muscles, joints and tendons some relief through gentle, thorough stretching. It doesn't happen overnight. One session on a yoga mat isn't going to do it. Consistency over time gives me better results.
Nutritional counseling also has been shown to help some sufferers, working on the theory that food sensitivities may lead to chronic inflammatory diseases like fibromyalgia. Elimination diets designed to heal the digestive system and decrease inflammation in the body do give relief of pain and fatigue for many people. It's better not to attempt this without the help of a certified nutritionist or a doctor knowledgeable in nutritional healing, but eliminating gluten and dairy products for a short period of time can help determine if this approach will help with symptoms. Even changing to a more clean diet with little or no processed foods, and more emphasis on fresh vegetables and fruits, lean meats and whole grains, makes a difference in symptoms for some people.
Meditation, acupuncture, talk therapy, massage, and reiki are some other modalities that can be explored to help manage symptoms. A mind, body and spirit approach seems to help on many levels.
Ongoing research into the mystery of fibromyalgia is important for successful management of it, and for now it's far from a perfect science. The important thing to remember is that we are each ultimately in control of our bodies and the more we get to know our bodies and our minds, the more empowered we become, and that seems to help most of all.

Kanye West almost literally took his new song "Love Lockdown" from the studio to the stage. In a blog post on his Web site, West said the track, which he performed at Sunday's VMAs , was the one closest to his heart.
He said he wrote the song "a week and a half ago. It's my favorite song 2 date!! Go where your heart takes you…." Artwork for the song has also surfaced, but West's rep was unable to be reached for confirmation that it's legit.
Reports have swirled that "Love Lockdown" is the lead cut from West's upcoming album, slated for December release. Although Kanye hasn't officially confirmed news of the LP, T-Pain will apparently be involved in some shape or form. The two have been working together a great deal lately.
"It's returning favors," Pain said recently in New York of his multiple collaborations with West. "We keep going back and forth. It's a lot of stuff people don't know that's going on with me and Kanye. We always catch each other in L.A. at these studios, man. He'll call me to his room, I'll do a hook for him. I'll go back down, probably make a couple beats. I'll call him down: 'Yo, do a verse for me real quick.' He'll go back up, he'll make something, call me back up. It's been going like that for a couple of months now."
Although his exact role on Kanye's new album is still unclear, the Louis Vuitton Don will definitely be featured on Pain's upcoming album, Thr33 Ringz (due November 11), on "Therapy."
"It's just about the crazy girls, man," Pain said. "Some girl, you didn't know she was crazy when you first start talking to her. Then all of sudden, she started having mood swings, PMS, all kinds of crazy stuff."
The duo also have a track called "Go Hard," which is a featured cut from DJ Khaled's We Global.
Now that the 2008 VMAs have come and gone, check out all the winners, the most surprising moments, the best red-carpet fashions and more at VMA.MTV.com.

Arugula From My Garden

I've never tried arugula myself...I've heard it is bitter if not combined with the right ingredients. Your sandwich does look delicious though and I could probably grow it well here with our short summers. Oh, and your bread looks wonderful!

I'm with you, Arugula is delicious. It grows pretty much wild in my region of Italy. I'm glad that it has gained so much popularity here in America... I think you'll find that now that you've grown it, it will reseed easily. Have a great day...Ciao for now.

I like arugula ok, don't love it. I guess it depends on what it is paired with, for me. I always use spinach in place of lettuce on my sandwiches but I will try the arugula. I bet it is super with deli turkey. XO, Pinky

Hello everyone,
I got a mail from Infosat Corp New Delhi that for 40000INR training will be provided by real time consultants and job placement will be in top MNC. To how far these institutes are correct. What is the fee for training in Siemens on FICO. I know FICO very well but I was with no certification and domain. Are there any current openings for freshers in any companies in India ? If I take certification Siemens, can I expect any job with that certification ?
Please somebody give me your suggestion ? I am very hungry for a job on SAP.. By any means I want to join in SAP ...
Thank you,
If you have knowledge, certification is really not required.
Cost at Sapient College was 2.5L for 5 weeks course. I do not know if recently it has been revised. There are many companies who take consultants with functional background.

Beginning today, Jewish families in Colorado, Wyoming and Utah have a new way to honor and memorialize their beloved pets.
The Mountain States Region of Jewish National Fund has teamed with Radio Chavura to present MishPAWcha™ - an online photo celebration that showcases the Jewish community's cherished four-legged family members.
JNF and Radio Chavura are asking Mountain States pet lovers to share their favorite Jewish pet photos and stories with the public, while also supporting the vital work conducted by JNF in building a prosperous future for the land of Israel and its people.
The first MishPAWcha™ pet to be showcased as the Rocky Mountain Jewish Pet of the Week is "Oliver," a loyal, loving poodle mix who was adopted by Denver native Norman Chandler from a local dog shelter.
"He fell in love with me immediately (which none of the other dogs did), and I knew that he was the one," Norman recalls. "I brought him home and told him that this was going to be his new life and he has been with me ever since."
Oliver's photo and complete story are featured at http:/MishPAWcha.com.
Each week, JNF and Radio Chavura will recognize a new Rocky Mountain Jewish Pet of the Week, and Jewish families throughout the Rocky Mountain region can honor or memorialize members of their own MishPAWcha™ by planting trees in Israel in their pet's name.
The concept for MishPAWcha™ was inspired by Ron Werner, current board president of JNF's Mount States region, who – along with his partner, Jim Hering – recently donated a grove of 1,000 trees in Israel. Ron and Jim made the contribution in remembrance of their three cherished rescue dogs, Shimshon (Sam), Zacharaya (Zach) and Lucy.
"What a wonderful way to thank Hashem for the blessing of our pets by contributing to JNF and its vital mission," says Dean Rotbart, who co-hosts the weekly Radio Chavura program. Dean's family has contributed to JNF in memory of their three departed dogs: Duke and Pasha, German Shepards, and Tikvah, a Golden Retriever.
Jewish tradition, dating back to Biblical times, recognizes those who were kind to animals. In fact, Jewish law provides animals many of the same rights as humans, including rest on Shabbos.
For a minimum tax-deductible donation of only $36, JNF and Radio Chavura will post a photo of your dog, cat or another honored pet at www.MishPAWcha.com.
One pet each week will be selected from those photos received to be recognized as the Rocky Mountain Jewish Pet of the Week. Each pet of the week will be showcased online as well as in the weekly edition of Radio Chavura's e-newsletter and program guide. (Subscriptions to the newsletter are available for free at www.SubscribeChavura.com.)
In addition, some of the most adorable pets will be featured in The Radio Chavura Magazine, a new publication that will be distributed for free beginning in late August to more than 15,000 members of the Colorado Jewish community.
"We invite everyone whose life has been enriched by the love of a pet to share their photo and story with us all," says Boaz Meir, JNF's Mountain States regional director.
While the MishPAWcha™ celebration is new, Boaz notes that many Jewish pet lovers the world over have combined their love of pets and their love of Eretz Yisrael for many years by planting trees in honor or memory of their four-legged family members.
To participate in MishPAWcha™, email your pet photos and stories to: firstname.lastname@example.com. Include a high-resolution digital photo and your contact details, including a phone number.
Those who pledge a minimum of $36 to JNF will be guaranteed that their pet will be recognized on the MishPAWcha™ website. Each pet will also be eligible for consideration as the Rocky Mountain Jewish Pet of the Week.
Pet photos, stories and donations may also be mailed to JNF at 6000 E. Evans Avenue, Suite 1-200, Denver, Colorado 80222. Be sure to include the word "MishPAWcha™" on your check, made payable to Jewish National Fund.
Note that the volunteers at JNF and Radio Chavura will post new photos to the MishPAWcha™ web page as expeditiously as possible, but it may take a couple weeks or longer from the time they receive your photo, story and donation until they are able to showcase your pet.

"Given a set $\{1,\ 2,\ 3,\ 4\}$, how many sequences with a length of $4$ with entries from this set have exactly one entry equal to $1$?"
Here is my work so far:
$$X = \left\{\text{sequences with length 4 from}\ \{1, 2, 3, 4\}\ \text{with exactly one entry equal to $1$}\right\}$$ $$Y = \left\{\text{permutations of length 4 from}\ \{1, 2, 3, 4\}\right\}$$
By definition, $|Y| = 4\times 4\times 4\times4 = 256$.
Where do I go from here? Should I find $|X|$ as well? I think (by intuition, I haven't checked) that I need to find $|X \cap Y|$ in order to solve this problem. Is this true?

Press Release
University of Minnesota receives $8M NSF grant for first-of-its-kind integration of global population and environment data
Terra Populus: A Global Population / Environment Data Network (TerraPop) will integrate the world's largest population database with global-scale data on land use, land cover, climate change and more.

MINNEAPOLIS / ST. PAUL – New research at the University of Minnesota will create new opportunities for understanding the relationship between population and the environment on a global scale.
The project – Terra Populus: A Global Population / Environment Data Network or TerraPop for short – was recently awarded a five-year, $8M grant from the National Science Foundation's Office of Cyber Infrastructure. The Minnesota Population Center will lead the effort with support from the Institute on the Environment, the U of M Library and faculty from the College of Liberal Arts and College of Science and Engineering. Additional partners include the Center for International Earth Science Information Network at Columbia University and the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research at the University of Michigan.
Terrapop will combine two centuries of census data from with global environmental data including land cover, land use and climate records. Beyond the goal of integrating this information into a common database, the team plans to disseminate the newly available data to researchers around the world.
Although a plethora of high quality environmental and population datasets are currently available, they are widely dispersed, have incompatible or inadequate documentation, and include incompatible geographic identifiers. Newly available population data closely integrated with data on the environment will more clearly describe the unfolding transformation of human and ecological systems.
"By creating a framework for locating, analyzing and visualizing the world's population and environment in time and space, TerraPop will provide unprecedented opportunities for investigating the agents of change, assessing their implications for human society and the environment, and developing policies to meet future challenges," said Steven Ruggles, director of the Minnesota Population Center.
The organizations collaborating on TerraPop are uniquely qualified to undertake a project of this scale. The Minnesota Population Center is home to the largest collection of census data in the world, while the Institute on the Environment has one of the most extensive databases of global land use in the country. The University Libraries are leaders in digital preservation and data management. The Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) is the world's largest social science data archive, and the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) is a leading research and data center focused on human-environment interactions.
"This project represents a quantum leap in our ability to see and map the relationships between people and the environment at the global scale," said Jon Foley, director of the Institute on the Environment. "And it represents an exciting new frontier of scientific collaboration -- between computer scientists, demographers and environmental scientists -- to break down our old disciplinary barriers and focus our collective energy on some of the world's biggest problems."
TerraPop aims to accomplish four specific tasks over the coming years including:
- Collecting, preserving, integrating and describing datasets that measure changes in the world's population and environment over the past two centuries
- Developing tools and procedures to manage and disseminate the data collections
- Carrying out education and outreach to engage the scientific community and the public and reach the broadest possible audience
- Establishing an organizational structure to ensure the long-term sustainability of the project.
The lead investigators from the University of Minnesota are Steven Ruggles (Minnesota Population Center), Jonathon Foley (Institute on the Environment), Victoria Interrante (Computer Science and Engineering), Wendy Pradt Lougee (University of Minnesota Libraries), Steven Manson (Geography), Jaideep Srivastava (Computer Science and Engineering) and Shashi Shekhar, (Computer Science and Engineering).
With this award, TerraPop will be an NSF Sustainable Digital Data Preservation and Access Network (DataNet) Partner. The DataNet initiative aims to provide reliable digital preservation, access, integration and analysis capabilities for science and/or engineering data over a decades-long timeline.
About the Minnesota Population Center

The MPC serves more than 80 faculty members and research scientists from eight colleges and institutes at the University of Minnesota. As a leading developer and disseminator of demographic data, MPC also serve a broader audience of some 50,000 demographic researchers worldwide. Learn more at www.pop.umn.edu.
TerraPop Reserch Examples
The following examples illustrate the types of research that will be facilitated by the TerraPop data access system. TerraPop will significantly reduce the amount of time scientists working on human-environment issues need to spend collecting, processing, and integrating data from a variety of sources.
Scenario 1: Explaining mortality and health outcomes at the district level in Ghana, Malawi, and Tanzania
Hypothesis/research question:
Health outcomes depend on local variations in the physical environment.
Research objective:
Demonstrate enhanced understanding of health outcomes related to environmental conditions at sub-national levels. Both physical and social environmental effects are crucial to the study as inequalities in health outcomes can be derived from disparities in access to natural resources as well as gaps in socioeconomic conditions.
Data required:
|Data Structure
|Infant and child moratlity
|Age structure
|Literacy rate
|Household access to toilet
Pre-TerraPop data processing steps:
- Obtain district boundaries from SALB, GADM, Malawi National Statistical Office
- Obtain temperature and rainfall data from WorldClim
- Obtain elevation data from ASTER-GDEM
- Obtain population data from IPUMS
- Match district boundaries to IPUMS geography variables
- Use ArcGIS to process environmental datasets
- Extract relevant portions
- Remove no data points and other artifacts
- Calculate mean rainfall, temperature, and elevation by district
- Use a statistical package to summarize IPUMS population data by district
- Use ArcGIS to join all variables to boundary shapefiles
Obtaining data through TerraPop:
- Select desired environmental and population variables
- Choose area-level output
- Select operations to summarize data to district level
- Obtain extract of variables summarized by district
Approximate time saved by using TerraPop:
25 hours
Scenario 2: Modeling deforestation and agriculture in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico
Hypothesis/research question:
Where and why do farmers cut down tropical rainforest to plant agricultural crops?
Research objective:
Establish the social and environmental factors in farm-level decision making. The land change science community has identified a suite of these factors and has made one of its research goals finding out how these factors play out in specific places, times, contexts.
Data required:
|Data structure
|Interpolated stations
|Interpolated stations
|Interpolated topographic
|Vector and Raster
|Land use/land cover
|Interpreted RS or GLC
Pre-TerraPop data processing steps:
- Obtain district boundaries from SALB, GADM, INEGI (Mexican census)
- Obtain temperature and rainfall data from variety of sources, interpolate, and validate
- Obtain elevation data from a variety of sources, interpolate, and validate
- Obtain raw remotely sensed data, classify, and validate
- Obtain population data from IPUMS
- Match district boundaries to IPUMS geography variables
- Use ArcGIS and Idrisi to process environmental datasets
- Extract relevant portions
- Remove no data points and other artifacts
- Calculate mean rainfall, temperature, and elevation by district
- Further validate and verify interpolations via cross-comparisons among data
- Use a statistical package to summarize IPUMS population data by district
- Use ArcGIS to join all variables to boundary shapefiles
Obtaining data through TerraPop:
- Select desired environmental and population variables
- Choose area-level output
- Select operations to summarize data to district level
- Obtain extract of variables summarized by district
Approximate time saved by using TerraPop:
100 hours base-case scenario; 200 additional hours if GLC data was substituted for remotely sensed data

Stupid Human Tricks: On David Letterman and the Law
What to make of this David Letterman situation?
On the sheer spectacle of the thing, we could go on and on — the weirdness of the alleged extortion plot, matched pound-for-pound by the weirdness of his on-air "confession," etc. But because we're in the biz of all-law-all-the-time (except when we're not, at which times you let us hear about it), we're going to stick to the story's legal intricacies.
Of course, there's the alleged criminal plot — which seems to be getting very serious attention from the office of Manhattan DA Robert Morgenthau. (Click here for the WSJ story on the Friday arrest of extortion suspect Robert Halderman, which links to Letterman's on-air confession from Thursday, as well as to remarks from Morgenthau at a Friday press conference. Click here for the NYT's story.) For good measure, on this front, we shouldn't overlook the sting operation on Halderman, which seems to have been well orchestrated by Letterman's lawyer, whose identity is, oddly, still unknown.
What had us scratching our head is whether any current or former staffers with whom Letterman might have been involved could possibly make out a sexual-harassment claim against Letterman, CBS or Letterman's production company, WorldWide Pants?
For more on that, we called up Marquette University law professor, Workplace Prof blogger, and employment-law expert Paul Secunda.
We asked Secunda if sexual-harassment suits are easier for plaintiffs to make out in situations with large power disparities, like one that might exist when you're dealing with the likes of David Letterman.
Secunda explained that it can cut both ways — and a plaintiff generally needs more than evidence of 1) a power disparity and 2) a sexual relationship.
In a sexual-harassment case, a fact-finder has to look closely at whether a sexual or romantic advance was, in fact, welcomed by the plaintiff. But, explains Secunda, one can't judge 'welcomeness' by the plaintiff's actions alone. That is, the plaintiff may engage in a relationship willingly even if she doesn't want to out of fear of reprisal. And the larger and more powerful the other party, the greater the fear of the consequences, in all likelihood.
At the same time, in many cases, the more powerful the figure, the greater the allure. "He's a powerful and well-known personality," says Secunda. "A good deal of prestige can go along with associating with a figure like that." In other words, an advance from Letterman could elicit a range of emotions, from fear and revulsion to excitement and a sense of opportunity.
But sexual harassment claims are not just about a subjectivity inquiry of unwelcomeness. At the end of the day, says Secunda, the court must also consider an objective inquiry: whether a reasonable person in the plaintiff's situation would have felt there was an intimidating or hostile environment being created by the supervisor's actions.

If there's one thing fans have learned in the past month, it's that the St. Louis Cardinals should never be counted out.
The team that overcame a huge deficit in the standings to squeak into the playoffs continues to roll on. After falling behind 4-0 to the Philadelphia Phillies and getting only three innings from ace Chris Carpenter in which he struggled mightily, the Cards managed to pull through.
A strong rotation of relievers stymied the Phillies. Meanwhile, the Cardinals strung together hit after hit, capped off with an RBI by slugger Albert Pujols in the 7th inning that put the Cards ahead 5-4, after which they never looked back.
"This is the playoffs -- whatever it takes to get out of an inning," Pujols told MLB.com after the game, "and obviously [Manager] Tony [La Russa] was doing that, mixing hitters with pitchers. It worked out this time for us."
Despite being caught in a couple of rundowns, Pujols didn't appear to be bothered by a tweaked ankle that took him out of Saturday's game.
"Listen, nothing hurts in the postseason," Pujols said after the game.

It is well known now that the over prescribing of antibiotics can lead to the uprising of 'superbugs', resistant to common antibiotics. But has this knowledge changed things in the hospital setting? The CDC report "Vital Signs", addresses the over-prescribing of antibiotics in hospitals today, and the future implications.
Some hospitals are prescribing 3 times the amount of antibiotics as compared to others. And more than half of all hospital patients receive antibiotics during their stay. What does this mean for us? That there is a large number of variants contributing to this problem. According to the CDC, poor prescribing contributes to antibiotic resistance, and health complications for the patient.
What can patients do? Ask if the proper tests are being done to make sure the right prescription is being prescribed to you. And make sure everyone that comes into contact with you is washing their hands. This will reduce the amount of exposer to bacteria and thus reduce the chances of getting a bacterial infection.

Emmy Award Trivia
The name "Emmy" was chosen as a feminization of "immy", a nickname used for the image orthicon tubes that were common in early television cameras.
To complement the name, the statuette was designed to depict a winged woman holding an atom, which has since become the symbol of the TV Academy's goal of supporting and uplifting the art and science of television.
Today, the Primetime Emmy is a symbol of peer recognition from over 15,000 Television Academy members. Members from more than two dozen peer groups vote for the category of competition in their field of expertise.
More Emmy Award Trivia, Fun Facts and Firsts
- The first Emmy Awards ceremony was held on Jan. 25, 1949 at the Hollywood Athletic Club and was devoted solely to programming that originated from Los Angeles, where the Television Academy was founded. Over time, the Emmys expanded to include programming aired throughout the United States.
- Shirley Dinsdale has the distinction of receiving the very first Emmy for Most Outstanding Television Personality during that first awards ceremony.
- The only First Lady to win an Emmy: Jacqueline Kennedy. The First Lady won an honorary Emmy in 1962 for her televised tour of the White House, becoming the only First Lady to be honored by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.
- Most touching reunion on an Emmy Show: "Charlie's Angels." In 2006, just two months after famed producer Aaron Spelling died, Kate Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and Jaclyn Smith reunited on the Emmy stage to pay tribute to the TV legend.
- Only Emmy ceremony preempted by a U.S. President: Jimmy Carter, 1978. About halfway through the televised 1978 Emmys, President Jimmy Carter interrupted with a half-hour press conference to announce the successful resolution of peace talks with Egyptian President Anwar El Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin.

This morning the Community Music Center (CMC) announced that it is one of the Bay Area Top 10 finalists in the Google Impact Challenge. Google invited local nonprofit institutions to share their most innovative ideas for improving Bay Area communities. The result was (in the words of the Web site for this effort) an "impressive roster from fields like education, housing, youth engagement and more." The initial submissions were reviewed by a panel of community advisors, which selected the "Top 10." The members of that panel were the Honorable Aida Alvarez, Secretary Norman Mineta, Oakland Fire Chief Teresa Deloach Reed, Reverend Cecil Williams, and Major League Baseball player Barry Zito.
This being a Google project, the next stage of selection will take place through online voting. All ten of the selected organizations will benefit. Every visitor to the Web site gets to vote for four of them. When all of the votes are counted, the top four will each receive a $500,000 grant. The remaining six will receive $250,000 grants.
CMC submitted a plan to continue their Community of Voices research study. This is a partnership with the University of California at San Francisco and the San Francisco Department of Aging and Adult Services. The study examines whether singing in a community choir is a cost-effective way to promote health and well-being among culturally diverse older adults. Twelve choirs are participating in the study. There is currently a grant from the National Institute on Aging to support each choir for one year. Hundreds of older adults are currently participating in these choirs.
The full ballot is displayed on the Google Impact Challenge home page. This page also tracks the number of votes a visitor has made and prevents the visitor from voting more than once for the same organization. There is also a "details window" describing the CMC proposal and supplementing it with an informative video. Public voting began today and will continue through June 2. (The home page also includes a "countdown clock.") The top four winning projects will be announced on June 3. Because this is the only music-related project on the ballot, readers are encouraged to vote.

According to a May 5 report from Rant Sports, Batista is not interested in losing to Daniel Bryan in the main event of the WWE's upcoming Payback special event, so he might not be part of the headlining bout at all. WWE head honcho Vince McMahon reportedly wants Bryan to pin Batista in the main event of Payback, before the standout striker goes into hiatus to promote his new film, "Guardians of the Galaxy."
Batista's movie hits theaters on Aug. 1, so he's expected to take some time off from the WWE to do some promo work for the film. Since Batista was already expected to be leaving the WWE for an extended period of time, the promotion was hoping to push Bryan over the top by scripting the bearded one to win by pinfall at Payback. Batista apparently is not interested in going forward with that script.
Batista came back to the WWE because he was promised a major push by the promotion. The WWE made good on their promise by scripting him to win the Royal Rumble, but WWE Universe let their voices heard that Batista would not return as a babyface. Batista gets roundly booed at every WWE house show, and he was booed when he won Royal Rumble. With that said, the WWE had no choice but to rewrite the script to make Batista into a villain.
"The Animal" also reportedly isn't thrilled about the financial compensation he's receiving from the WWE right now. Since Batista isn't interested in putting Bryan over at Payback, its looking like the WWE will do another matchup between The Shield and Evolution. As for Bryan, he's now slated to take on Kane in a Buried Alive match.
Batista is expected to stay with the WWE until at least the first week of June, which would leave him plenty of time to get set for a promotional tour to hype "Guardians of the Galaxy." Let's face it: Batista's return to the WWE has been an absolute bust. The WWE may have made some promises to Batista to get him back into the fold, but he can't be shocked at the promotion not wanting him to win at Payback since he is so despised by fans.

Solve $t^2x''-4tx'+6x=0$ knowing that $x_1(t)=t^2+t^3$ is a particular solution
So I assumed the general solution will be in form of $x(t)=C_1 x_1(t)+C_2 x_2(t)$ and $x_2 = v(t)x_1(t)$
So now I have to find $x_2$
$$x_2=v(t^2+t^3)$$ $$x_2'=v'(t^2+t^3)+v(2t+3t^2)$$ $$x_2''=v''(t^2+t^3)+2v'(2t+3t^2)+v(2+6t)$$
And if I try to plug it into my equation I get something very complicated, as almost nothing reduces. Is it the right way to do it?
EDIT: ill try to plug it in here and see what happens since I probably made a mistake
$$t^2(v''(t^2+t^3)+2v'(2t+3t^2)+v(2+6t))-4t(v'(t^2+t^3)+v(2t+3t^2))+6(v(t^2+t^3))=0$$ dividing both sides by $t^2$ $$v''(t^2+t^3)+2v'(2t+3t^2)+v(2+6t)-4(v'(t+t^2)+v(2+3t))+6(v(1+t))=0$$ $$v''(t^2+t^3)+v'(2(2t+3t^2)-4(t+t^2))+v((2+6t)-4(2+3t)+6(1+t))=0$$ $$v''(t^2+t^3)+v'(4t+6t^2-4t-4t^2)+v(2+6t-8-12t+6+6t)=0$$ $$v''(t^2+t^3)+v'(2t^2)=0$$
Yeah I made a mistake, thanks for pointing that out.

The goal of Click It or Ticket is to influence people to buckle
up and prevent injuries and fatalities. Research proves that the
certainty of a ticket and fines convinces people to buckle up.
Television Commercial
Mobilization of Click It or Ticket plays a critical role in the
effort to keep people safe on Vermont's roads and highways.
is vitally important to buckle up. Franklin County Sheriff's Office
employees Deputy Corey Griswold, Deputy Tina Ploof and former Deputy
Scott Ferguson as well as Bookkeeper Kristina Lynch can testify
they could have been seriously injured or even killed had they
been wearing their safety belts. Please visit the links below to
pictures from each of their crashes.
It is the policy of the Franklin County Sheriff's Office that all
employees, while in performance of their duties, "are required
to be restrained in a safety belt system unless: 'The person
is s member of the emergency personnel of an emergency motor vehicle
and finds it necessary to be unrestrained in order to perform his
or her duties'." [Vermont Statutes, Title 23, Chapter
13, Section(b)(5)]
