My question is simple. What (if anything) does Ubuntu Server Edition have to offer to home users?
This question is mostly out of curiosity really, but I like asking. I've got a home network set up here with some 6 to 7 machines (most Windows, one Linux). And I was wondering how useful would it be to have a dedicated (older) computer in my house running Ubuntu Server full time. For instance:
We've had an awful experience with file sharing so far, would it simplify file sharing/transferring?
Would I be able to limit the internet bandwidth granted to each PC?
Would I be able to monitor in/out internet traffic (both real time and monthly statistics)?
Last, and most important, if I'm completely off as to what Ubuntu Server actually is, please say so. I am completely new to it.

But those two large items haven't been the only ways the Obama administration has helped the LGBT community to overcome hurdles in the federal government. Obama has implemented a nondiscrimination policy for federal employees that includes both sexual orientation and gender identity, released new regulations ensuring that government housing programs are open to LGBT participants and families, required all government-funded hospitals to recognize same-sex partners as equal to heterosexual spouses and stopped automatically deporting individuals in same-sex binational relationships, an immigration protection long granted to married, opposite-sex, binational couples.
Other dramatic changes to federal policies have come in the area of transgender rights. From new regulations to the Federal Aviation Administration about transgender pilots, to working with the Department of Homeland Security on how to handle transgender passengers flying with mismatched gender markers on their identifications, the Obama administration has been the first to directly involve itself in making life easier for transgender people.
Transgender New York delegate Melissa Sklarz is absolutely certain that Obama is the best candidate for transgender people.
"From health care inclusion to housing discrimination protection, Barack Obama has taken great strides to ensure that transgender people achieve basic civil rights just like other Americans. Even the ability to secure a passport without SRS (sexual reassignment surgery) is a welcome change for many trans people that will create security and opportunities with travel abroad," she said.
National Stonewall Democrats, the umbrella organization for most of the country's LGBT Democratic clubs, has an exceedingly large presence at this year's convention. They are co-hosting a luncheon Wednesday afternoon with the Victory Fund, the Human Rights Campaign and Equality North Carolina where first lady Michelle Obama will speak. NSD's Tuesday night party is the biggest LGBT-specific event planned for the week.
Matt Comer, interviewed for this report, is the editor of QNotes. Democratic National Convention coverage is provided by Metro Weekly and QNotes, the leading LGBT community newspaper of North Carolina, based in Charlotte.

So it's the 9th of October already!! Can you believe it?! Such an emotional year to be honest with lots of up and downs ... mostly ups according to my scale! LOL, but I am happy to say that within 9 months (though I don't want to give a time limit because if I don't meet my expectations I don't want to be so disappointed...) But I know that if I keep at it... there will be definite results ... I mean heck, I've only been consistently been working out 5+ days a week for starting my 4th week, and I've seen some awesome progress! My spare tire is noticeably smaller, my knees don't have that layer of fat that bulges off from my lower thigh. Little things like that, are small accomplishments for me. Though the scale still wobbles, I am losing inches, building muscle ... I just have to get my diet in check and I know the pounds will fall.
I haven't been eating the greatest, due to low funds. It's a pretty sad excuse, but life happens. Bills have to be paid. And yes, there's some weeks, I don't go grocery shopping, but will have a can of corn for dinner, because it's what I have ... LOL. I bought my house in 09, bought a new car this past December because my exploder was going to, well, explode. Doctor and dentist bills, you know just the every day bills, and being on my own, it can get overwhelming!! But it's what I signed up for, it's not that I can't eat right, it just can get expensive buying fresh foods, well for the simple fact they go bad. I really wish, and I know I've had this problem in the past, but weekly shopping. (How much to buy, when, so I can make it last)
It's only me, so one would think it wouldn't be that hard ... :/ Bleh. Okay enough about my food rant. I really got off course there...
Well at least it's pay day today .. :)
I'm actually excited to go grocery shopping after I get done with work ...! My fridge is emmmmmpty. 1.) because I cleaned out all the CRAP and 2.) I've been a broke chica. LOL
But when it comes down to it, if there is a choice, I will reach for the fresh foods. I love salads, I love chicken... I just wish I had a better knowledge of nutrition, portion sizes, and I really really really hate eating all day long. I know it's supposed to boost your metabolism, but I just feel like a fatty bloated lard at the end of the day, I sleep like crap and then I don't want to work out... So I think for now, I will stick with the eating three times a day, and if I'm hungry between there, I will snack on something, but working a full time job, sometimes preparing food is the last thing on my mind... But I guess it comes down to how bad I want this ... as you can see, I'm still fighting this endless battle when it comes down to food. Well better get to "working" . ... ;)
Have a great day!! and your advice and loving support is always appreciated!!!

I only have to feed myself too and sometimes it can get hard! but I try (emphasis on the try cos it doesn't always go to plan) to go shopping once on the weekend and then cook two or three meals and refrigerated/freeze the left overs and that is then my meals for the week. I find it's often overall cheaper to buy 'regular' sized portions of ingredients not 'single' sized portions. The only down side is that you have to eat the same thing each day for a week. But then I change it up the next week and so on. Plus another upside is that I only spend one afternoon or night cooking and dinner is basically ready when I get home from work / my workout and it's easy to take lunch cos it's all ready just to grab out of the freezer. and that is always cheaper than buying lunch.
Just some suggestions that work for me. Best of luck :)

Water for Elephants Movie Reviews
User reviews on Water for Elephants
I went into this movie having read the original novel by Sara Gruen, and expecting this to be another screwed up adaptation of a wonderful book into a pathetic movie. It seems that films from great novels often take great liberties with the story often making the original unrecognizable, and telling a groan-worthy tale. And/or they often are so miscast, that the story is not believable. So my 18 year old daughter, who had originally read and recommended the book to me went into this movie with little hope of it being any good, thinking it would be "just OK" or, more likely, awful. We also felt that Pattinson 26, against Reese, 36, would be weird since he is ten years her junior.So we entered the theater with little hope of seeing a good movie.
However, we were very pleasantly surprised, as this was an excellent movie that stayed true to the original story. Sara Gruen had done years of research on her depression-era circus story, and the film did a great job of capturing the life of circus folk in the 1930's. We found that beautiful Reese can certainly play younger, and she was fabulous in her role as Marlena. Pattinson, whom we had only seen from the Twilight sagas can actually act, and was surprisingly good in his role. And he and Reese had undeniable chemistry on film, the big shocker!
We were totally drawn in to the film from beginning to end, and there were no moments where the film dragged or lagged, it kept up a fast-paced story line. The stunts, which took up an entire three screens of the credits were well executed and totally believable. Hal Holbrook as the aged Pattinson was, as always, amazing, and Christoph Waltz was perfect as the man you really want to hate, the bitter and insecure circus-boss August.
We are very picky about films and went in this expecting to hate it, but we actually loved this film and highly recommend it. Both in print and on screen Water for Elephants is a beautiful story. The film was an amazing representation of a story well told, and finely acted, and it did not disappoint! Go see it!
I thought that the film was alright but not great. It reminded me a little of "Big Fish" but it is not nearly as magical and charming as that film. It is one of those films that really wants to be grant and amazing, but it falls short somehow. Reese Witherspoon is great as usual and she is still very beautiful but Robert Pattinson did seem to be too young for her. There was no chemistry between them and it made the film not as good as it could have been. I think Witherspoon did all she could but Pattinson simply is not a good actor and he was not able to carry his role. Overall, the film is not memorable but I still enjoyed watching it.
Starring Robert Patinson and Christoph Walz, Water for Elephants is the latest Carnival magic movie. Robert Patinson plays a student who during the Great Depression is looking for a way to make more money. He discovers a traveling carnival in which weird things happen. The movie was a little slow at times but overall I enjoyed it. Reese Witherspoon does a great job as always but I just didn't feel the chemistry between her and Robert Patinson. I kept feeling like Reese Witherspoon was just too old for Robert Patinson. The movie looked great though. The animals were all very interesting and the movie had a pretty cool story.
Water for Elephants stars that kid from Twilight, Robert Patinson. One of his costars is Christoph Walz, who was recently recognized as best supporting actor in Inglorious Bastards. I really did not like this movie. I kept feeling like it was another movie meant for young girls. There were some parts of Water for Elephants that I did like though. The general visuals of the movie were excellent. It was definitely a visually appealing movie. I also liked Reese Witherspoon. She did a great job acting and was very believable. The theme of the movie was good too. A magical carnival kind of felt like that HBO show from a few years ago. Now that I think about it I may like this movie more than I originally said.
Water For Elephants is supposedly a romantic drama, but I was hard pressed to find any romance in this movie. Based on the novel by Sara Gruen, the Depression era film is just another watered down adaptation that loses everything that made the book interesting. Add to that one of the most boring leading men in film history, and I couldn't have been more bored.
When Jacob's (Robert Pattinson, whose career still baffles me) parents die, he becomes broke and homeless. He leaves veterinary school and finds himself on a circus train, where he lies his way into a job as the vet. The circus is run by the iron-fisted August. He can be both charming and insane, putting fear into his workers and his wife, Marlena. He takes a liking to Jacob, who in turn takes a liking to Marlena, who in turn takes a liking to Jacob, and the sparks...um... And hey, there's something about an elephant that speaks Polish.
There is absolutely NO chemistry between Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon, who is usually more than up to the challenge. Maybe it's because she's acting opposite the wood post that is Pattinson. I swear, the elephant emotes more. Christoph Waltz is fine as August, though his character was a little to close to his Oscar winning role in Inglorious Basterds. The film is also hindered by a script that seems to have been cut together from other romantic dramas. In an interesting note, director Francis Lawrence (whose work on Constantine and I Am Legend makes him much more suited for action than for this) directed the Britney Spears' video for Circus. Maybe that's how he got the job.

This English translation of the paper by F. Zwicky, "Die Rotverschiebung von extragalaktischen Nebeln", Helv. Phys. Acta 6, 110–127 (1933), in which he concluded from the results of observations that the amount of non-luminous matter in the Universe must be greater than that of luminous matter—thus becoming an early precursor of the dark matter idea, has been selected for publication in the Golden Oldies series of General Relativity and Gravitation. The paper is accompanied by an editorial note written by Jürgen Ehlers and by Zwicky's brief biography compiled by Andrzej Krasiński.

Flammenspiel' brightens up the garden in late summer and early autumn with its reddish-orange, daisy-like blooms that have rounded, dark brown centres. It is at its best in September. Plants will not reach their final height until their second year. To restrict their size, cut back to about 30cm (1ft) tall in May. This not only reduces their final height but will also delay flowering by a week or two. To propagate, divide plants in spring. Dividing in autumn often fails as the small plants produced die during the winter.

Holding for sound—a phrase that becomes playful jest among filmmakers as a shoot day progresses. Sound is a crucial department to any production, and interference while in the field can prove a challenging hurdle to overcome. Later this month, the New Orleans Video Access Center hosts a hands-on instructional class to help sound crew tackle the problems they'll encounter on the job.
The class is titled "Holding for Sound: Field Audio Fundamentals." Topics will include: sound recording principals, elliminating noise, capturing ambient/wild sound, and delivering for post. Additionally, participants will be exposed to key equipment and tools necessary for every sound mixer's kit.
Eric Laws leads the class, which is scheduled for January 18th at NOVAC's Bywater location. Laws is an accomplished mixer with credits ranging from major motion pictures filmed in Louisiana's bayous to the barios of the Phillipines. His work also includes Swamp People and The Governor's Wife.
The audio class is set at $150 for current NOVAC members, and $200 for newcomers. Tickets and details can be found online.
"Holding for Sound" is part of NOVAC's filmmaker workshop series, bringing the latest, up-to-date information to local crew members as a response to Hollywood South's growing industry.

Decorated amateur Vasyl Lomachenko, who came up short in his first bid for a world title, got it right Saturday night at the StubHub Center in Carson, Calif., by outworking Gary Russell Jr. down the stretch to capture a majority decision and the vacant WBO featherweight championship.
The scores were 116-112, 116-112 and 114-114.
Lomachenko (2-1-1 KO), a southpaw, won the fight by committing his attack to the body. He bobbed and weaved and stayed on his toes. His plan was to stay close and attack from different angles.
Russell Jr. (24-1, 14 KOs) had moments of success as the fight progressed. Some of his flashy combinations landed, but many more missed.
Lomachenko's heavier punches began to hurt Russell Jr., 26, in round five. The Washington, DC native fought back in the next few heats, but it was obvious that Lomachenko was winning the battle of wills.
Russell Jr., also fighting out of the southpaw stance, started to slow down in the last few rounds. Lomachenko, 26, moved his attack upstairs. A number of stunning punches landed. Russell Jr. showed a good chin by absorbing the shots.
In the last minute of round 12, Lomachenko, who was born in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi, Ukraine, cemented his victory by hurting Russell Jr. with vicious blows to the body and head.
Somehow Russell Jr. remained standing.
"I was just working hard. I landed a lot of punches to the body and head," Lomachenko said through his translator.
"So far, I don't know what it means to be the champion," said Lomachenko. "I followed my plan. I didn't prepare for this fight just to try something different."
"I thought it was a fair decision," Russell said. "I didn't stick to my game plan like I should have. I should have initiated the action much more and closed the distance on him."
The bout was televised live on Showtime Championship Boxing.
With the victory, Lomacheno, who won the gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics in the featherweight division and 2012 London Olympics in the lightweight division, matches the record set by Thailand's Saensak Muangsurin in 1975 by winning a championship in his third professional fight.

Tell state and federal leaders: every school needs a full-time nurse!
In order to meet the basic health and wellness needs of every student, every school must have a full-time nurse on staff. And just as important, policymakers need to make sure schools get the funding they need to do so.
It's time to send a message to state and federal leaders: don't gamble with our children's lives!
Petition text:
The tragic death of sixth-grade Philadelphia student Laporshia Massey illustrates the dire need to ensure that every child has access to quality health and wellness services at school. I urge you to support requiring that every school have a full-time health professional on staff — and to commit to fully funding this critical resource.

William Edgars
this wiki
William Edgars was a human industrialist, one of the wealthiest people in the Earth Alliance and the founder of Edgars Industries. He was married to Lise Hampton.[1]
No pictures of him had ever been published and he had an extreme distrust of telepaths. Even going so far as to force Garibaldi to fire Lyta Alexander whom he had hired to assist him in his work. [2] By his own secret admition, he along with several other wealthy and powerful individuals were in fact the "real leaders" in control of the Earth Alliance, operating as a kind of shadow council. Additionally, his feelings towards the Clark regime were essientally neutral. He agreed, that while, Clark and his associates were a problem that in a few years time they would be gone by nature of the political process and that because he as a wealthy and influential person was not being adversely effected. He also gently hinted that he and his wealthy friends would have a hand in choosing the next administration. [3]
When Michael Garibaldi goes to work for Edgars he reveals, alongside with one of his employees, Wade, that he has genetically engineered a virus that attacks only telepaths. Due to the distrust and apparent risk of telepaths gaining control over the Earth Alliance, a means of controlling a telepathic coup had to be developed. The virus, both airborne and extremely contagious, would infect those carrying the telepathic gene and kill them unless they received injections of a developed antidote every two weeks for the rest of their lives. Unknown to both Garibaldi and Edgars, Garibaldi was a programmed sleeper agent for Bester and the Psi Corps, who subsequently relayed this information along.
Soon afterwards William Edgars was killed at his Mars home and office by agents of the Psi Corps, where the virus and cure were stolen.[4]

Listen to the President's Podcast (July-August 2013)
I recently had an opportunity to learn that replacing the wiper blades on my car certainly makes it easier to see the road ahead. I'm sure some of you can relate. You switch on the windshield wipers only to find that they don't seem to be clearing the water like they used to, the road is a blur and your heart is racing because you truly can't see where you are going.
Advances in science, rapidly shifting regulations and reimbursement and changing expectations of gerontological nurses in all settings are appearing at every turn. Having a clear view ahead adds to peace of mind. NGNA members can take advantage of many resources to keep a clear view of the road ahead.
Our growing e-Learning Library now includes options for the NGNA/Hartford Institute for Geriatric Nursing monthly webinars.

To Salt or Not to Salt?
Interpreting the results
Though the finding was subtle enough to be missed by most of the coverage of this study, it is a mistake to conclude that reducing salt intake is not important for health at all: There was a clear trend toward reduced risk of cardiovascular disease–related deaths among people who ate less salt. The study failed to address the question of whether those who reduced salt intake reduced it far enough to make a difference in health.
The average American consumes 3,400 mg of sodium per day, more double the American Heart Association's recommended maximum daily intake of 1,500 mg. It's unclear that study participants reduced salt enough to reap noticeable health gains. And don't assume the results on heart failure apply to everyone. This condition is unique, it is affected by many things in the diet that don't apply to people without heart failure, and it requires regular medical care to properly manage.
Sacking salt
There may be other reasons to consider salt in the bigger picture. People who eat more salt tend to eat more processed food and fewer fruits and vegetables—practices that may lead to worse health. These habits are linked with greater risk of heart disease, stroke, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and more. The following tips will help you sack the salt, and improve your health overall.
- Stop reading labels. You don't need a label to tell you that apples, broccoli, oats, peaches, beans, and peas are healthy and low sodium. If most of what you eat has labels, you're eating the wrong things.
- Go fresh. Focus on fresh, whole foods. These foods are naturally low in sodium and rich in potassium, magnesium, and nutrients known to keep blood pressure low and nourish a healthy heart and body.
- Focus on the plate. Fill three-fourths of your plate with vegetables, fruit, and whole grains. The other one-fourth should include lean protein, such as beans, fish, chicken, or other lean meats.
- Cash in on color. Eat red, yellow, orange, green, blue, purple and white whole foods, such as red peppers, apricots, broccoli, avocados, blueberries, raisins, blackberries and eggplant. When is the last time you ate parsnips or figs? Whole food variety equals a quality diet!

The only good thing about Swiss cheese is that it has holes in it so theres less of that spawn of satan.

I've been hooked on the smoked cheddar cheese that they have at Fareway. Probably will get the whole block next time and shove it in my face.

I love all kinds of cheese, but we ALWAYS have a slab of sharp cheddar and another of pepperjack in our fridge, along with a carton of regular or garden AE cottage cheese. Bleu Cheese dressing (Marzetti Ultimate) is also a staple at our house.
Some of my favorites include Swiss Gruyere, Spanish Manchego and Parmigiano Reggiano. Gorgonzola smells like stinky feet but it is a whole different taste. Maytag blue and Cabot cheeses are very good domestics.

Get that processed American/ Velveeta bs OUTTA HERE.
Give me cheddar or give me death. Preferably very sharp.
Pepper Jack is amazing on burgers and sandwiches, colby jack is good for sandwiches as well, provolone is highly versatile and one that I probably use the most, mozzarella usually only goes with pasta for me. Havarti is acceptable.
Btw I have Wisconsin roots.

Velveeta is convenient for homemade dips, but it's the worst cost-to-quality s*** of all time.
Any muenster shout outs yet? I'm seeing a lot of love for mozzarella but other than pizza/Italian sandwiches I don't really care for it as much as cheddar, colby, havarti.

Central Bank Says Rate Cuts No Longer Needed
- By Yelena Fabrichnaya
- Jun. 28 2010 00:00
- Last edited 18:02
The economy no longer needs the stimulus of rate cuts, and rates may remain on hold for the next few months, while any rise in inflation could prompt hikes in reserve requirements, Central Bank First Deputy Chairman Alexei Ulyukayev said Friday.
"On the one hand, inflation is still … easing compared with last year. On the other hand, there is a recovery in the economy, which is becoming more sturdy — this relates both to lending and to industrial output," Ulyukayev said in an interview.
"So the situation is no longer such that we must give extra stimulus to the economy by cutting rates. … The period of rates being kept at current levels will possibly last for the next few months. What happens after that, I cannot say."
The Central Bank has cut its benchmark refinancing rate by 525 basis points since April 2009 to a record low of 7.75 percent in a bid to help the economy recover from its worst recession in 15 years. But in May the Central Bank signaled a pause in the easing cycle and analysts now see rates on hold to year-end.
The next meeting on rates is due Wednesday.
While the refi marks the top end of the rates for Central Bank operations, the bottom is marked by the overnight deposit rate, currently at 2.5 percent.
"In theory … we would like the corridor between lending and deposit rates to be lower," Ulyukayev said.
"But in the current situation, the reduction of this corridor would mean that deposit rates should be fairly high, which would not be very good … [since it would encourage] the inflow of short-term capital, the carry trade."
Russia's high interest rates have attracted so-called carry trade investors who borrow in lower-yielding currencies to invest in high-yielding ones.
In quotes approved for publication earlier, Ulyukayev also explained in detail the Central Bank's foreign-exchange intervention mechanism.
The period of stable ruble appreciation is over and the ruble is now set for a volatile time without a clear trend in either direction, Ulyukayev said, reiterating previous comments and forecasting zero net capital inflows for the year.
He added that this should help keep inflation in check, forecasting that prices will rise by less than 0.6 percent in June and no more than 6 percent for 2010 as a whole.
Nonetheless, there is still potential for a rise in inflationary pressures in the final quarter "linked to the rise in money supply, the monetary base, the pickup in lending, the recovery in the economy," Ulyukayev said, adding that GDP could grow by more than 5 percent this year.
"If … the cycle of rate cuts is over or has paused, in that situation, if we see that there are inflation risks, we could use the mechanism of reserve requirements," he said.
Russia could also differentiate reserve requirements, making them higher for foreign currency obligations.
"The differentiation of the requirement is quite possible, but we must look at banks' balances, their foreign currency position, the dynamics of net foreign currency assets. For now there is nothing threatening happening here," he said.
"But if the situation changes, we will consider the issue."
Ulyukayev also reiterated Russia's commitment to move away from an exchange rate focus to target inflation while still retaining the right to intervene in the currency market.
Russia, the holder of the world's third-largest gold and forex reserves, has reiterated its faith in the euro in the wake of the fiscal troubles in the euro zone — a stance Ulyukayev repeated.
"We are not changing the share of the euro, we are not changing the official structure of the reserves," he said.
"The euro is a reserve currency, and I think this status will remain in the future. … I think there is a good chance that everything ends well. So I do not see a catastrophe, or big concerns with the euro."
The foreign currency part of Russia's $450 billion reserves remains unchanged at 47 percent U.S. dollars, 41 percent euros, 10 percent sterling and 2 percent yen. Despite pledging to add the Canadian dollar, Ulyukayev said the Central Bank had yet to do so because of technical reasons. The Australian dollar has also previously been mentioned as a possible investment candidate.
"With the Australian dollar, it's just an idea. While with the Canadian dollar it is already a project, we are working on it, with the Australian one it is just thoughts," he said.

Features » Charities
By Contributor / 2011-12-10 18:58:31
Although rain, at times in torrents, fell from the skies, F.A.C.E. (Fundraising in Arboleas, Caring For Everyone) supporters, British and Spanish, still battled through the bleak mid winter to visit the F.A.C.E. Christmas market, which was held at the Salón del Ayuntamiento in Arboleas.
The market was officially opened by the Deputy Mayor of Arboleas, Roger Done, and F.A.C.E. President Adele Wrigglesworth.
As well as market stalls filled with many tempting products for the Christmas season, there was a full entertainment programme. This featured "Carrie's Dusty Boots" Line Dancers, who performed to music from the film "Burlesque" and to a trio of Christmas hit songs. The fabulous Voices of Almanzora Choir led by Trudie Louch, sang familiar Christmas numbers from around the world and groups of young children from the Arboleas district, performed some sparkling dance routines and sang traditional Spanish Carols. Back ground music was provided by Peter Williams.
Other Christmas traditional and not so traditional treats were also available. Mulled wine and mince pies were on sale, as were hamburgers, cheeseburgers and bacon baps.
Santa Claus had been approached by the F.A.C.E. Committee and had managed at this very busy time of the year for him, to make a flying visit to Arboleas with one of his elves.
The aim of the market was to raise funds for the various charities which F.A.C.E. Have supported over the last year. Amongst these have been M.A.C.S. (Mojacar Area Cancer Support), Age Concern España, the A.E.C.C. (Asociación Española Contra el Cancer) and ALCER (A Spanish Association who give assistance to people suffering from Renal illnesses).
The climax of the evening was the draw of a raffle which F.A.C.E. Had organised. The top prize of 200 € was won by Brenda Paton.
The main winners of the evening though were the charities that F.A.C.E. Continue to support. Over 2000 € was raised by the evenings activities, although we are still counting and the final figure should be higher.
F.A.C.E. Would like to thank all the local businesses who provided support with donations of sponsorship and donations of raffle prizes. F.A.C.E. Would also like recorded much appreciation to all the wonderful helpers - too many to name, but you all know who you are - that voluntarily gave their time and energy to make the evening the success it was.
If you would like to join the very dedicated people who run this Spanish registered charity please ring 667 255 094 or visit the web site www.face-charity.com

Working class autobiographies (18th-20th C.)
"It gathers together 200 working class autobiographies from the British Library, from manuscript and monograph sources, that capture working people's education, childhood, and working conditions. These valuable historical sources bring the world of the 19th century working class vividly to life; from a policeman's accounts of criminal life to the memoirs of a show manager, from the spiritual conversion of a clown in prison to the tales of gypsy life." -- Gale Cengage
A striking illustration of the overlap between the oral and the written traditions, autobiographies constitute the vast majority of all books written by the working class in the 19th century. They reflect the rapid spread of literacy and the realization of its value as a means of communication with a wider audience beyond the local community. These writings - military and maritime adventures, spiritual memoirs, thieves' tales and other reminiscences of low life, accounts of self-improvement - provide not only a formal record of living conditions but also the people's own view of their lives presented in ways that may often contradict the version given in history books. The range of topics covered includes everything from ancestry to childhood and family relationships, from education to work and leisure, and from religion to politics, providing a significant insight into all aspects of working class life and experience in 19th century Britain.
Date range: 1792-1920
Size: 200 titles
Language: English
Keywords: Autobiographies, working class, Britain, social conditions
Notes: Related collections include the British Labour Party archives, the Trades Union Congress archives, Francis Place papers, Rare Radical and Labour Periodicals, and Public Order, Discontent, and Protest.

The Crusaders: It Happens Everyday
It Happens Everyday
The Crusaders
The Golden Years (GRP Records GRD-3-5007)
Joe Sample (keyboards), Larry Carlton (guitar),
Robert "Pops" Popwell (bass), Nesbert "Stix" Hooper (drums), Wilton Felder (tenor saxophone), Dean Parks (guitar), Arthur Adams (guitar), Ralph McDonald (percussion), strings uncredited.
Composed by Joe Sample.
Recorded: Hollywood CA, December 1976
Rating: 95/100 (learn more)
Joe Sample's reputation as a preeminent smooth jazzer often obscures his tremendous abilities on the piano, which he plays in a uniquely graceful and funky way. Sample can also craft some compositions that are pleasingly mellifluous while being anything but lightweight. He really hit his stride in the latter department with "It Happens Everyday," which was originally the closing number from The Crusaders' classic platter Free As The Wind .
This winsome ballad begins with Sample alone rendering its main melody, a deeply idyllic one, and consisting of a series of linked phrases often punctuated by short flourishes. Even the bridge is a perfectly constructed and flows out naturally. The rest of the band and some superfluous strings soon join in, but this is Joe's show all the way.
Sample's trademark percussive but fluid style is on full display for his solo. His strong right hand pours out the passion in a brisk manner, but never quite overbearing. Above all, it's done in the service of that knockout melody.
I first heard "It Happens Everyday" some thirty years ago and it still sounds just as fresh today after countless listens. The beauty of this tune transcends any debate over whether it's smooth jazz, R&B jazz, or even straight jazz.

I ran across an interesting integral and I am wondering if anyone knows where I may find its derivation or proof. I looked through the site. If it is here and I overlooked it, I am sorry.
$W(1)=\Omega$ is often referred to as the Omega Constant. Which is the solution to
$xe^{x}=1$. Which is $x\approx .567$
Thanks much.
EDIT: Sorry, I had the integral written incorrectly. Thanks for the catch.
I had also seen this:
$\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\frac{dx}{(e^{x}-x)^{2}+{\pi}^{2}}=\frac{1}{1+W(1)}=\frac{1}{1+\Omega}\approx .638$
EDIT: I do not what is wrong, but I am trying to respond, but can not. All the buttons are unresponsive but this one. I have been trying to leave a greenie and add a comment, but neither will respond. I just wanted you to know this before you thought I was an ingrate. Thank you. That is an interesting site.

Player of the GameJaMychal Green returned to form with a 21-point evening against Detroit along with six rebounds. Green had a nearly flawless night, going 7-of-9 from the field (7-of-8 from inside the arc) and 7-of-8 from the free-throw line. The senior did most of his damage in the first half going 6-of-7 from the floor and then scoring seven points from the free-throw line in the second half.
His six rebounds moved him into 15th all-time at UA past Phillip Lockett with 781 career rebounds. Green finished with an efficiency rating of 26, his second highest of the season and the third highest by a UA player this season. In the last four games, Green has shot 26-of-37 (.702) from the field.
Play of the GameAs part of the Tide's run to reclaim control of the game, Tony Mitchell and freshman Levi Randolph combined to deflect a Detroit pass in the far corner. Randolph collected the ball and pushed it up court to classmate Trevor Lacey. Lacey then lobbed the ball towards the rim where Tony Mitchell slammed home his fourth highlight reel dunk of the evening.
Turning Point of the GameOver the final two minutes of the first half and the first nine minutes of the second half, Detroit trimmed a 22-point Alabama lead to just nine points. However, three straight fouls by Detroit - including a technical - and a turnover allowed the Tide to quickly tack on five points to take the momentum away from Detroit.
UA extended the lead to 18 points over the next six minutes as the defense held Detroit without a field goal for 9:36 with the Titans going 0-of-8 from the field during that span with four turnovers.
Stat of the GameAfter surrendering 10 three pointers on 52.6 percent shooting to Dayton, the Tide clamped down on the perimeter against Detroit holding the Titans without a three-pointer on 12 attempts. Detroit came into the game averaging nearly five three-pointers per game.
It was the first time in Anthony Grant's three seasons at UA an opponent has been held without a three-pointer and the first time since Florida A&M went 0-for-20 on Nov. 19, 2008.
Top LineupAlabama used 13 different lineups against Detroit with five of them outscoring the Titans and two playing them even. The five-man unit of Tony Mitchell, Trevor Releford, Rodney Cooper, Trevor Lacey and JaMychal Green was the most productive, outscoring Detroit, 10-4, during the 3:29 they were on the court together. The starting five of Mitchell, Releford, Green, Levi Randolph and Nick Jacobs spent the most time on the floor at 10:56 and held an 18-14 advantage.
Additional Detroit Notes- Detroit became the seventh UA opponent this season held under 60 points and the sixth to shoot less than 40 percent from the field.- Detroit's 54 points were its second-fewest of the season. Of UA's 10 opponents this season, six have scored a season-low against UA and three have scored their second fewest of the season against the Tide. Dayton remains the only team that has not scored its fewest or second fewest points of the season against UA.- The win was head coach Anthony Grant's 50th at the helm of the Crimson Tide. In his third season, Grant owns a 50-29 record at UA.- Freshman Nick Jacobs made his first career start and responded with 13 points, two shy of a career-high.- Detroit averaged 0.90 points per possession to become the eighth opponent that failed to average a point per possession or more against the Tide.- UA improved to 4-2 against current members of the Horizon League and 2-0 all-time against Detroit. - UA improved to 5-1 at home this season and has won 25 of its last 26 games at Coleman Coliseum.- Tony Mitchell recorded four dunks and finished with 15 points. The junior now has 993 career points and is on the cusp of becoming the 45th 1,000-point scorer in UA history.- Mitchell's four dunks gave him 19 on the season. - Alabama led at halftime for 51st time under Anthony Grant. UA is 39-12 in those previous contests when holding a lead. Last season the Tide was 22-3 when up at halftime and the team is 7-0 this season.- UA held a 30-24 advantage in the paint and has outscored eight of its opponents this season and played the other two even. In its last five games, UA has held a combined 174-122 advantage in the paint.Detroit +/- ReportGreen +15Releford +10Lacey +7Jacobs +5Cooper +4Randolph +4Mitchell +3Hankerson 0Eblen -3Engstrom -5

One tattoo on each side, exactly where you'd put your hands if you were to place them on your hips: "I am but dust and ashes" and "The world was created for me." She explains where the idea for the tattoos came from, why words instead of pictures, and the religious significance behind the text.

Men's Hoops Hill Sprints Featured by DNAInfo Chicago
Sept. 25, 2013
The UIC men's basketball team was recently featured by DNAInfo Chicago for their unique preseason training methods. For six consecutive Tuesdays, starting in mid-August, the Flames can be seen at Chicago's famous sledding hill that sits just south of Solider Field. The team arrives together around 6:30 a.m. and proceeds with a strenuous set of hill sprints. Each week the squad adds two additional sets to the workout, culminating with 20 sprints on the final Tuesday.

That's the only joke I have. Thanks folks.
A few programming notes:
1. The Dallas date hasn't been set
2. But they told us there would be a Dallas date
3. So hold tight for the Dallas date
The whole thing seems to be run through a poorly "liked" Facebook page, which is exactly what I'd expect from a one-man show performed by Mike Tyson.
Update: As I was writing this, the Dallas date was posted. February 19, at Verizon Theatre in Grand Prairie.

Still smart in the UK...
By djberg on Oct 11, 2006
It is late and I am tired but I have to say that I am still energized. I am spending a few days in the UK this week. I just spent the day with some people that made my week. Well I spent half a day, the other part (morning) was spent traveling from Prague to our London city office. Flight to LHR - check. Express train from Heathrow to Paddington - check. Change trains in Paddington to the Circle line - check. Get on wrong train and go in wrong direction because I am on the phone and not paying attention - check. Get on right train but then have it go out of service two stops later - check. Get on another train and have it go out of service two stops from Monument - check. Get taxi and make it to the office 20 minutes late - check.
Let met get to the fun part. I spent time with the leader of our UK Systems Engineering organization (Greg Nolan - note to Greg - start blogging!) and a number of folks on his team. We spent the time reviewing the plans and progress of the Systems Engineering team and what challenges we face moving forward. What impressed me was how upbeat, engaged and how truly customer focused the team was. Momentum is growing and we continue to grow our Systems Engineers who have the unique ability to understand our customers business issues and bring Sun's wealth of innovation, technologies and knowhow to the table.
I then got to meet with a select group of people at Sun. I met with a number of the Principal Engineers that are based in the UK. Bit of background: a Principal Engineer at Sun is senior customer engineer that has demonstrated significant skills and strength in a given technology area and has engaged and shared their knowledge with different communities (customers, peers, product engineering, industry, etc). Simply put, they are our best and brightest. They are not just experts in their domain but have also demonstrated that they know how to engage others, share what they know and mentor others. Ohh and did I mention that in order to become a Principal Engineer you must pass a peer review of existing Principal Engineers?
The great thing about our meeting was that we didn't really spend much time talking about issues, we just had a great chat about technology and the direction of our top engineering talent. I love it when I can just hang with really bright people and have a geekfest session on a broad range of topics. Thanks guys. I really did appreciate your time.
Then I was off to have a curry with Dave Levy. Dave is one our the Principal Engineers mentioned above and all around social networking guru. I had a bunch of questions about blogging, tagging and the future of social networking. Don't forget to send me the link to the book you are reading Dave, I would like to give it a read. Beyond social networking we chatted about consulting service models, value engineering and technology issues impacting EMEA.
Good food, good company, good night.
