Hank Williams was only 29 years old when he died in the back of a Cadillac in 1953, while on route to a show in Ohio. Yet, his songwriting still resonates to this day. The man had the ability to write from the heart and touch the listener's soul. The songs were sincere and spoke to the human condition. Drawing from personal experience, Williams expressed his vulnerability in love, hope, spirituality and pain. He channelled his anguish into poetry, cutting the trail for "hurtin'" songs – a style that so many others followed, and that became cliché in country.
Williams laid the foundation for contemporary songwriting. He was at the forefront of the singer-songwriter movement. His lyrics had rhythm and flow. They were easy to sing. Williams' use of pacing and repetition of consonants made the words hook into the listener's subconscious. The songs' appeal grew and spread. Artists such as Elvis Presley, Gene Vincent, Carl Perkins, Ricky Nelson, Jack Scott, Conway Twitty and Jerry Lee Lewis all recorded Williams' songs early in their careers.
Pete Seeger once said "all songwriters are links in a chain." Williams was the link that inspired songwriters such as Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Roy Orbison, Leonard Cohen, Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan, to name just a few. In his memoir, Chronicles: Volume One, Dylan recalled, "I became aware that in Hank's recorded songs were the archetype rules of poetic songwriting. The architectural forms are like marble pillars." Dylan has covered Williams' songs and has paid tribute to Williams in the liner notes of his first two albums. As well, he oversaw the release of The Lost Notebooks of Hank Williams.
The Lost Notebooks of Hank Williams
When Williams was found dead in the back of that Cadillac, he had in his possession a brown leather briefcase containing four notebooks filled with song ideas. The books were put in the possession of Williams' publisher, Acuff-Rose. Kept in a fire-proof safe, they remained hidden for decades. When Acuff-Rose was bought by Sony Music Publishing in 2002, the unpublished Williams material was transferred.
Sony Music asked Dylan to put music to some of the lyrics. As the project was too large to handle on his own, Dylan brought other contributors on board: Merle Haggard, Lucinda Williams, Levon Helm, Alan Jackson, Norah Jones, Jack White, Vince Gill and Rodney Crowell, Patty Loveless, Jakob Dylan, Sheryl Crow and Holly Williams joined in, and The Lost Notebooks of Hank Williams was released in late 2011.
Bruce Springsteen tried to crack Williams' code
Just this month, Springsteen was the keynote speaker at the SXSW festival. In his address, Springsteen recalled listening to Williams' hits over and over, trying to "crack the code." In a previous blog, I noted how Cohen ranks Williams "a hundred floors above me" in "Tower of Song."
Perhaps Williams' granddaughter, Holly, best sums up his legacy by noting that the songs "are timeless, absolutely timeless."
"Every person, every race, every age, every language can relate to his lyrics and beautiful songs," she says. "We all know heartbreak, we all know joy, we all know spiritual struggles, we all can relate, no matter how different we may be deep down. They will and should always be cherished for their brilliance."
In 2010, Williams was posthumously awarded a special Pulitzer Prize for his songwriting. The citation praises Williams for "his craftsmanship as a songwriter who expressed universal feelings with poignant simplicity and played a pivotal role in transforming country music into a major musical and cultural force in American life."
Hi Cathy... thanks, great article; I'm listening to the CD right now.... what a project!
I especially like "Blue is My Heart" by Holly, backed by her dad, Hank Jr...
Foe those who don't know, there is a Hank 3.... check him out singing one of his granddaddy's songs...
Hey Cathy... My winter project was building an ambitious website and writing an eight song horse opera about a gold rush town. Not quite finished, I discovered music.cbc.ca by accident, and have been fairly addicted to a few of the genres over the last month. I totally like how you respond to the bloggers... most article writers, around the site, do not... good for you.
It's been a time consuming hoot. My valley is doing the big melt and I'm way behind... out of the chair I must spring (pun intended)... so much to do.
So long, pardner. If things stay the same, we'll have that waltz when the snow flies.

Tired and retired (sort of) :) :) :)
Thanks, Brad....
Hey UATB: Thanks for the conversations and for your kind words. Happy trails to you - I'll leave the porch light on :)

It was actually a frame of reference...the top heavy ain't quite as top as it used to be, along with most of my other body parts. Gravity is the great equalizer. :)

According to the Daily Mail, a four-year-old child is dead after being mauled by three dogs in Kent County, Del., on Wednesday afternoon.
The circumstances surrounding the tragedy proved to be a perfect recipe for disaster...the child, Kasii Haith, was outside in an un-fenced yard playing, unsupervised, with three unaltered pit bulls.
The boy's mother, 24-year-old Kyeisha Haith, looked out a window and saw the boy being attacked; she ran outside to try and save her son. Workers in the area also tried to intervene, but it was too late for the child, who was pronounced dead by responding emergency personnel.
The dogs, who belonged to a friend of the Kyeisha Haith, were turned over to animal control to be destroyed - the dogs were all unaltered and un-vaccinated.

New urban forestry videos tout benefits of public green spaces
The urban forest is the aggregate of all vegetation and green spaces within communities that provide benefits vital to enriching the quality of life. Additionally, community forests are an integral part of large cities, rural areas, streets, backyards, parks, and open spaces. Community forests provide shade, beauty, and habitat for urban wildlife. Properly planted trees and other vegetation can reduce heating and cooling costs, intercept and store rainwater, improve air quality, and increase property values and local tax bases.
Having trouble finding tree planters? We can help.
Hearing that landowners are having difficulty finding crews to plant seedlings this year, the South Carolina Forestry Commission surveyed tree planters on our current list to see if there was any in-state capacity available. Finding only minimal capacity, agency staff asked members of the Southern Group of State Foresters to contact tree planters in other states to see if they could help. Several vendors from across the South have contacted us, and we have compiled the list below including their contact information.
SCFC raises estimate of forestry's economic impact loss from flooding to $100M
The South Carolina Forestry Commission has raised its estimate of economic impact loss to the state's forest products industry from last year's historic flooding to $100 million. The agency derived its initial impact assessment of $65 million in October 2015 from forest planting and inventory data, aerial surveillance, mill reports and consultations with foresters, loggers and landowners. Since then, the commission has surveyed nearly twice as many mills in addition to collecting more extensive feedback and data from landowners and foresters in the roughly 20-county swath most affected by the flood.
SCFC, SCFA announce forestry's $18.6 billion impact to SC economy
South Carolina Forestry Commission officials announced the economic impact of the forest products sector in grand fashion Tuesday, Aug. 18, unveiling a large wooden sign representing the industry's $18.6 billion contribution to the state's economy. The new economic impact figure was revealed at a statewide meeting of forestry professionals organized by the SCFC, the South Carolina Forestry Association and forest industry allies.

Day 31: May 2 2014
Life is full of unintended outcomes, we seldom can prepare for the curve balls we are handed, thus the most we can do is adapt and grow to actively participate in our ever evolving contexts. I cannot recount a single failure in my life, because everything that I have endured has made me who I am today, and I do not regret any of it.
I am enthusiastic about life, and I revel in learning, a growth curve that is paved by shifting perspectives and a state of being undone. I suppose I do not know what it means to fail because I am willing to take the detours that the world guides me toward. The reason I am able to do this is because I realize I am not the only force behind my existence, like Shakespeare I concede to the unities of time, place and action. You only fail when you stop, so long as your flowing, life always takes you somewhere, in the end it comes down to one's ability to adapt to the unfamiliar and the unknown, fractions of Johari's window that we are all inherently afraid of.
Failure is a product that is heavily packaged in expectations some of which aren't even anchored in the now during which they are birthed. We can be highly anticipatory, impatient creatures, I should know, I want the reward even before I have coined the name for a given project, but if we wait and sync with the process then we enjoy the journey as much as the culmination and conclusion. To me the very concept of failure is derived from our own incapacity to see in shades of grey, it only exists in a black and white world. I don't live in a black and white world, none of us do, it is incredibly vibrant and Technicolor, and more importantly its inclusive and synesthetic. We just need to find a way to remain permeable to all that input, and pay attention to the threads that resonate most with our internal frequency, that will inspire us to act and flow.
I don't think anyone could fail at anything so long as they are willing to keep at it, learn, grow and remain open to change. In Parsons, where I was educated, the foundation year curriculum involved being assigned "problems" that needed custom creative "solutions" there was no right or wrong, it was about a need being addressed efficiently and holistically. I didn't always find the best solutions, but it was "a" solution nonetheless and it wasn't a failure because it taught me that the real reason why I couldn't do it better was because I hadn't taken the time to really understand or connect to the problem. Epiphanies take time, you have to allow yourself that time.
In conclusion the less familiar you are with something the more likely you are to learn from it, as it will contour your pre-existing patterns of reason and insight. The larger your color wheel of life the more malleable and pervious you will be to change. The more present you are, the less likely it is for you to be predisposed to conclusions based on outdated data or falter on account of unrealistic projections. Lastly the more time you spend understanding the question or the problem the more adept you will be at honing in on a feasible answer or solution. All of this will ensure you don't encounter failure because the word will simply not be a part of your vocabulary.
The Serengeti inspires me every minute of every day because it is in a constant dance with me, relentlessly weaving in and out of my frame, making me so large, that I feel myself throughout the vast reaches of this pulsating landscape. There is no failure here, just a daily fight and an endless flow. I don't ever want to leave this place, my heart clings to its fertile soil like morning dew hugs a sleepy leaf.

@anotherdevil Oh ok, sorry guys
@anotherdevil Oh ok, sorry guys
So the 'Premium' version is available but not decided what bonuses will be included in it yet? Is there any idea of the kind of bonus it will include?
The bonuses aren't finalised, and objectively they won't represent better value than the standard pre-order. They're mostly just for people who want to add to the development fund of the game, because the bonus for everyone is a better game at the end of it. There's no shame in going for the standard order though - it's all helpful to us!
Mainly I was just curious, I was commenting on the old forums when there was a considerable amount of pondering about what the bonuses would be and whether they would be semi-useful in-game things or freebees etc. I think names of the soldiers, faces, as well as useful (but not earthshaking) buildable items were mentioned, but it's been a while since I checked that forum. I can't pre-order buy right now (things are a little tight here) but am hoping to get it in a week or two. What I've seen (especially on your new snazzy site!) is very impressive. It certainly seems more in-depth than any such game I've seen before both in the background and the game mechanics. Good job and I hope I'll get to preview the alpha version soon
hmmm, not sure having names in the release is really much of a bonus, since you can change names anyway can't you? might be nice for some to think that random person on the other side of the world has a soldier with their name, but oh well, not sure where I am going with that. Let's just say I'm not a fan of that bonus - but I could just opt out if I wanted to I suppose
What if the Hokey Pokey really is what it's all about?
Yeah you can change the names. Secondly the names are in two sets, first and last names, so the chances of both your names coming together. Thirdly they're randomly generated, so the chances of you getting your name in your game with all these points... Quite low
"What are you gonna do, talk the alien to death?"
- James Cameron, on Sigourney Weaver's concern about the use of guns in Aliens
There was also talk about fleshing out these recruits by filling in more personal details (age, nationality, service history), or even by giving them fixed stats and physical appearance.
Any chance of getting a hard copy of the game?
As much as I love DD's, there really isnt anything quite like having a hard copy of one of your favorite games that can work independently of a DD service or online connection. Even the ability to install the game on a computer that has no or will never have a connection.
I know its a minor thing... but its something to think about....
Im going to stick with my premium regardless of the bonus because I love GoldHawk for what they have done and being so open to the forums for suggestions to help shape the game (a game for the fans molded by the fans)...
How can I get my premium pre-order badge? I shy away from posting on the forums, but I've had a preorder for the game since the start. Can't wait for the next, fairly playable build... although I will miss attacking the glassy shed of evil.
Ghost - no, not right now I'm afraid. Maybe we'll consider it later.
Darkwing - did you get the Desura gift email? That has the details in it and was sent to the Paypal address you pre-ordered with. If not, email me and I'll sort you.

Dolph Lundgren returns to the screen as the aggressively named Max Gatling in this nifty biological action thriller that is essentially Dolph vs. the dead. Acting as a low-rent World War Z type outbreak tale, the events are set in Southeast Asia where medical regulations are lax and biotech companies can get away with unsanctioned experiments. Naturally, one of these viruses becomes airborne and the entire city is quarantined regardless of infection status.

Sharing a Win/Mac based multimedia developer's views on FOSS tools
Indranil Das Gupta <indradg@...>
[With apologies for X-posting] Hi all, Recently I had posted on my blog ("Making change happen - the case of the IOTA job ad" - http://indradg.randomink.org/blog/archives/150) how the Institute for Open Technology and Applications (IOTA - the autonomous society setup by Dept of IT, Govt of WB) had originally posted a job ad asking for multimedia developers for CBT development with work experience on proprietary tools. Upon the intervention of the Minister-In-Charge IT (Prof Debesh Das) this changed asking for expertise in FOSS tools alone. Today I received an email which puts an interesting twist and probably runs the risk of jeopardising the above decision to move to FOSS for CBT development. A multimedia expert who's highly proficient in proprietary software for multimedia authoring was asked to create a feasibility plan for development of the CBT using FOSS tools, and his report is as follows. I figured it would be interesting reading for a lot of people, so I've shared it below. === THE REPORT === I have gone through the most recommended open source software in Linux, to be used as substitutes of the commonly known graphics related software. On basis of the requirement for CBT development project, I have performed dry-run of some test cases. The results from those trials can be stated below.(Continue reading)

Cross DiagonalThe smaller of the two diagonals of a kite, and it doesn't necessarily involve any symmetry. It is, however, bisected by the main diagonal. So there's that.
Cyclic QuadrilateralA quadrilateral whose vertices all lie on a circle. It has the peculiar property of having opposite angles that are supplementary.
DiagonalA segment that connects the two pairs of opposite vertices in a quadrilateral. In polygons with more sides, a diagonal connects any two vertices that are not right next to each other.
Isosceles TrapezoidA trapezoid whose two non-parallel sides (legs) are congruent. Its two pairs of base angles are also congruent, much like those of an isosceles triangle.
KiteA quadrilateral with two distinct sets of congruent consecutive sides. (They share an angle.) It has perpendicular diagonals and is perfect for windy days.
Main DiagonalThe larger of the two diagonals of a kite. It's the diagonal about which there is a line of symmetry.
MedianA segment parallel to the bases of a trapezoid that connects the midpoints of the non-parallel sides. A trapezoid's median also has a length that's the average of the two bases.
ParallelogramA quadrilateral in which both pairs of opposite sides are parallel. Consequently, they're also congruent. And their opposite angles are congruent. And their consecutive angles are supplementary. And their diagonals bisect each other. And they like long romantic walks on the beach and reading Danielle Steel novels.
PolygonA closed 2D shape that's made up entirely of straight line segments. No saucy curves on these guys. They're all lines and angles.
QuadrilateralA polygon with four sides. We can remember this easily because "quad" means "four" and "lateral" means "side."
RectangleA parallelogram with four right angles. Also known as "The Equiangulizer" because any equiangular quadrilateral is automatically a rectangle.
RhombusA quadrilateral whose four sides are all equilateral. Rhombi (that's the plural of rhombus) have all the properties of parallelograms, too.
SquareA rectangle with four congruent sides. It's also got that 90° angles thing going on plus the bisected congruent perpendicular diagonals. It's also the quadrilateral worthy of the title "regular."
TrapezoidA quadrilateral with only one set of parallel sides (called the "bases"). Trapezoids absolutely cannot have two sets of parallel sides. That's a big fat no-no.

Dachshund Outreach Giving and Socialization (DOGS) debuted its Summer 2014 T-shirt designs this week. This is the charity's third official installment of original tees, and their first time to offer a wirehair option for dachshund fans. The limited edition shirts are considered wearable art and only available via the nonprofit in limited quantities.
DOGS produces the shirts for dachshund fans typically twice a year. They are moderately price and include 2-day UPS shipping at suggested donation price points. Through the next two days during the pre-order window the shirts are discounted. Patrons make a tax-deductible donation at the suggested price points and in return get a T-shirt as token of their thanks for the support.
In the last year and a half the 501c3 has distributed 148 shirts to 28 different states in the union. More impressively, and thanks to the partnership with Dodger's List, each shirt is shipped with life-saving information on IVDD; the disease that continues to haunts 1 out of 5 dachshunds and their humans.
The shirts only generate a modest amount of funds for the charity, but the fans really seem to like them. DOGS champions the long-bodied hounds, and believes in making personal connections with as many dachshund humans as possible. What the shirts lack in monetary gains, they make up for in grass roots awareness and outreach. Recipients of shirts are encouraged to recycle the IVDD literature; they're asked after they read it to pass it along to another dachshund friend or local veterinary office.
DOGS is working to bring the community together and empower its members with knowledge. It is the charity's hope that every dachshund human knows that back problems are not a death sentence. Dachshunds can live long and full lives with or without the use of their back legs. Treating back problems in the dachshund community ranges from conservative crate rest to expensive surgery and rehabilitation which each family determining what's best for them. No dachshund should be euthanized because of back problems. If you're unable to handle a special needs dog, there are rescue and rehab organizations and other pet sanctuaries available to accept your dachshund.
If you want to help DOGS, please consider making a tax-deductible donation or pre-ordering a shirt today. The shirts will arrive in Southern California early June for distribution worldwide, but the discounted price point is only good through Saturday, May 3 at 11:59 pm PST. On Sunday the price will return to $40 a shirt.
The details:
The pre-order discounted donation price points are: 1 for $35, 2 for $50 or 3 for $70. Your donation includes 2-day UPS shipping anywhere in the USA.
If you want a 3XL shirt it can be yours for $4 more ($39). They will only order 3XL for those who pre-order because of the extra expenses associated.

I have a server running in the azure cloud. The server is a DC and i'm trying to make a domain trust with my local domaincontroller Server. The servers are linked with windows azure connect (ipsec).
I can ping from cloudpc to localdc.
I'm also able to add the dns records of the localdc.
But now i'm trying to make a trust with the localdc.. I Go to Trusts tab, click New Trust, enter localdomain and click next and get "The name you specified is not a valid Windows domain name..." and it won't let me continue.
I don't want to give up because it worked once, but now the ipv6 of the azure connect changed so i had to reconfigure. I have already spent 2 days on this.
The way we solved the trust problem before was by adding the 127.0.0.1 address to the prefered dns of my network adaptor.
It seems the dnsrecords of the previous settings remained and the new address made the trust work.
However, if i try this workaround again, the azure connect records just reset and seeing this is the base of the connection, it is important these stay unchanged.
It seems logic that it is a DNS problem, but I am puzzled as to how to solve it.
If anyone got through reading all of this and still understood my blabbering... ;)
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated

Bluegill, Lepomis macrochirus: The Bluegill has been widely transplanted and is now the most common recreational freshwater fish in North America. It is a schooling fish found in schools of 20 to 30 individuals. The Bluegill is caught with live bait, flies, white bread, corn kernels, hot dogs, raw chicken or lures at dawn and dusk. It is found in waters with underwater vegetation.
The Bluegill has a long spawning season that begins when water temperatures reach 70 degrees, peaking in May or June, and continuing until water temperatures cool in the fall. Nests are created in shallow water, one to two feet in depth, over gravel substrate. Fifty or more nests may be crowded into a small area, thus creating a spawning bed.
Very territorial males guard the nests until the eggs hatch and the fry leave. Young fish feed on plankton, but as they grow the diet shifts to aquatic insects and insect larvae. With high reproductive rates, low predation and low fishing pressure the Bluegill can very quickly become a major invasive pest destroying native populations; it has been banned from commercial trade in Germany and Japan. The Bluegill is preyed upon by catfish and largemouth bass.
This fish species is currently used by the cities of New York, San Francisco and Washington to monitor freshwater water quality supplies for toxicants such as cyanide, fuel spills, heavy metals, mercury, pesticides, and phosphates. The Bluegill coughs by flexing its gills to expel unwelcomed materials from its breathing passages. The frequency of these coughs is monitored by sensitive listening devices giving an indication of current water quality.
The Bluegill is a member of the Centrarchidae or Sunfish Family. They are fairly easy to recognize by the blue or black "ear" which is an extension of the gill cover, vertical bars on the sides, and a relatively small mouth. Breeding males are intensely colored with the vertical bars taking on a reddish hue.
They are named, however, for the bright blue edging on the gill rakers. They are found throughout North America ranging from Québec to northern Mexico and are the state fish of Illinois. Pound for pound they provide an excellent fight, reaching a maximum length of 17 inches; the largest Bluegill on record is 4 pounds 12 ounces caught in 1950 from a lake in Alabama. They are considered to be an excellent species for teaching angling to children and an excellent food fish.

Bob Parker explores the variety of cultures and mores that he has found during 30 years of travels. Rather than detailing his various activities on a given day, the author focuses instead on the one event that has enriched the experience of that particular day.
Parker's travels extend here over almost 30 years, reflecting his encounters with people from Nantucket to Norway, from Mexico to Ireland, as well as in Caracas, the home of his wife Margot. The early journeys are with his wife and their three children, but beginning with a visit to Greece and its islands, the remaining trips are by him and his wife alone.
Here are impressions of people like artists, writers, and musicians, as well as of the natural and architectural wonders of the world from Venezuela to Venice. Here, too, is a travel writer who captures the emotions of experiencing new lands and the histories that give them meaning.
Robert A. Parker has been an active writer and photographer for more than 40 years. He has won national awards as a director of publications for corporate magazines, and his free-lance writing has appeared in The New York Times and major consumer magazines. He has also exhibited award-winning photos in the New York/New Jersey area, including with his wife Margot at both the Venezuelan Consulate and the Donnell Library in Manhattan, plus at Brookdale Community College, Freehold, and New Providence Memorial Library. His work has also been shown at The Donald B. Palmer Museum, Springfield, Sussex County Community College, and the Arts Guild of Rahway. Margot has earned many awards. She has received a major "Award of Merit" from the New Jersey Photography Forum, plus awards from art associations of Rutherford and Clifton. She has also exhibited her photography and art in group exhibits at the National Arts Club, Manhattan, the Segal Gallery, Montclair State, and other venues.

In Valley Grande, the Fourth Judicial Circuit District Attorney, Michael Jackson, released photographs on Monday Caroline Dunnam and Andrew Parrish posted on Facebook of a young black puppy hanging from a rope dangling from the ceiling of their home reports wsfa.com.
In an egregious act of cruelty, it is not known why either Dunnam, 26, or Parrish, 23, decided to that to an innocent puppy.
"What their motivation was, we don't know at this point. It's still under investigation. It was just very callous to have it posted on Facebook. I guess they thought it was a joke or something to hang a poor little dog," stated Jackson.
On the Facebook photo, Dunnam captioned the picture with "My poor baby."
Outraged people who saw the puppy dangling in November reported the abuse to authorities.
Dunnam and Parrish turned themselves into authorities on Jan. 10. The puppy, named Timmy is being cared for at the Selma Animal Hospital. Aside from some minor injuries, Timmy is reported to be doing better.
The couple are currently free on bond and expected to appear in court in the near future.

Donald Byrd (featuring Sonny Red): Fly Little Bird Fly
Fly Little Bird Fly
Donald Byrd (trumpet)
Mustang (Blue Note 8599632)
Donald Byrd (trumpet), Sonny Red Kyner (alto sax), Hank Mobley (tenor sax), McCoy Tyner (piano),
Walter Booker (bass), Freddie Waits (drums).
Composed by Donald Byrd.
Recorded: Englewood Cliffs, NJ, June 24, 1966
Rating: 90/100 (learn more)
Sylvester Kyner was his real name, but he was better known as Sonny Red. Despite several recordings as a leader and further recording and performing as a sideman in the '50's and '60's, the altoist never really made his mark. Red appeared on four mid-'60s Donald Byrd sessions for Blue Note, beginning with Mustang. The title tune was Red's, which the composer hoped might become a big hit like "The Sidewinder" so he could buy a new car. This didn't happen. "Fly Little Bird Fly" got just as much airplay back in the day, and deserved it – a stirring Byrd composition with complex changes based on a whole- tone scale. Pianist Tyner, used to such harmonies from playing with Coltrane, is riveting in his absolute onslaught of a solo, which leaves no stone unturned, as well as in his fleet-fingered intro. Red, exhibiting his clear Jackie McLean influence, sounds less comfortable, as he sticks closely to the melody in his solo and plays mostly choppy, truncated phrases. The spirit is there, but not the inspiration. Byrd and Mobley open up a bit more in their improvisations, but only Tyner truly breaks through the pre-imposed structure, aided in no small part by his darting left-hand punctuations.

Well, it's hump day of National Irish Coffee Week, which means two things: If you are reading this and are not drunk, you haven't been celebrating with vigor like I have; and it's time for you to fix that.
The recipe I'm about to share with you is one of my favorites. Normally I like to enjoy it on an evening when I know I'm going to have a late night and want a burst of caffeine with my whiskey.
Ladies and gentlefolk, the Inside-out Irish Coffee:
8 oz French pressed coffee
Ice cube tray (Cool Beans by Fred bring the awesome to this recipe)
Irish whiskey (I use Jameson)
1 Tablespoon cane sugar
(I keep coffee cubes on hand in my freezer, but you'll want to complete this first part at least four hours before you're ready to imbibe the Inside-out Irish Coffee)
Part I
Brew coffee, pour in to measuring cup (to help expedite cooling process) and stir in sugar.
Pour in to ice cube trays and place in freezer.
Part II
Place ice cubes in glass, pour over as much whiskey as your heart desires. Just don't overflow; wasting whiskey is a sin.
*I have played with freezing heavy cream with the coffee (pictured). Although that makes for nice looking ice cubes, once you pour the whiskey in, the appearance is less than appetizing. So unless you are already so drunk that you just don't care, I'd suggest sticking to coffee only cubes.

At the same time, the genome sequence does provide evidence that humans and Neanderthals have interbred. This became apparent when the Neanderthal genome was paired against human genomes from different parts of the globe. The Neanderthal DNA consistently matched European and Asian samples better than it did African; the difference was small, but consistent. It suggested that the Neanderthals, which were restricted to Europe and Asia at the time modern humans originated in Africa, had interbred with humans once they began migrating out of Africa.Because African human populations are older, they tend to have more divergent genomes. But the human-Neanderthal split is older still, so the authors figured that any areas of the genome where variation was larger in populations outside of Africa may have entered the human genome through interbreeding. If they did arise through interbreeding, then the non-African segments should match Neanderthals. Researchers found at least 10 regions that fit these predictions.Although they can't rule out the possibility that modern humans had already started diverging from Neanderthals before leaving Africa, the research team favors the idea of interbreeding in the Mid-East as the first modern humans left Africa. This would ensure that both the Asian and European populations picked up some Neanderthal DNA.

PIP attorneys plead for leniency in breast implant fraud trial
Thousands of patients and regulators may believe otherwise, but attorneys representing 5 executives from the defunct breast-implant company Poly Implant Prothèse insisted last week that their clients did not knowingly make substandard implants.
French public radio station RFI reports that the attorneys defended the safety of the implants involved. News that patients were complaining about unusual levels of rupturing sparked initial concern. And then the revelation that the now-defunct company used substandard materials for its products sparked panic among thousands of female patients around the globe.
But attorneys representing 5 former PIP executives, including founder Jean-Claude Mas, deny they committed aggravated fraud for using inferior industrial-grade, rather than medical-grade, silicone in the company's breast implants. The disgraced execs' legal team noted this fact but is arguing for gentler punishments, in part because testing of the implants suggested that the materials weren't toxic or a cause of increased rates of breast cancer (an assertion that some health experts now dispute).
The defense's final arguments followed final arguments from patient attorneys who are seeking four years and a $128,000 fine for Mas, plus prison terms of 6 months to two years for the other executives on trial. They represent 5,127 patients who claim the substandard implants led to at least 4,000 breast-implant ruptures in the EU and Latin America.
It's one of the biggest legal cases to hit French courts in years, and there will be heady anticipation waiting for the verdict.

BRUNSWICK — The Medina County OVI Task Force announced Friday there will be a sobriety checkpoint Saturday in Brunswick.
The specific location will be announced Saturday morning.
The checkpoint will be funded by federal grants and is planned to deter and intercept drunken or impaired drivers.
"OVI checkpoints are designed to not only deter impaired driving," said Brunswick Police Lt. Brian Ohlin, commander of the task force, "but to proactively remove these dangerous drivers from our roadways."
This is the third checkpoint held in the county this year. Others have netted a total of six arrests for operating a vehicle while intoxicated.
Under federal law, police are required to announce checkpoints to avoid violating the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unlawful search and seizure.

This book can be read in one sitting. Get your beverage and snack of choice, a comfortable place to sit and enter in. In this imagining of the afterlife, most of those who have died go straight to heaven, but there are some who are not quite ready. For varieties of reasons, they feel tethered to their lives on earth and are reluctant to let go. For these ambivalent souls, God has provided "the heavenly village," an idyllic place with pleasant weather, friendly neighbors, any desired and needed creature comforts and flexible time. With a wink and a nod from the author, one character wonders if they're in Connecticut (where I now feel an increased need to visit). The book is a series of profiles of some of the inhabitants of the heavenly village. Their lives on earth are described as well as the purposes of their time in the village. They did not consciously choose to delay heaven itself, but God understood that they had some debts to pay, accounts to settle or some kind of business to be resolved.
Certainly a religious book, Rylant's spirituality includes the vision of spirits existing with God both before and after life on earth, and she uses quotes from the Bible, both from Hebrew scriptures and the New Testament, preceding chapters. She also envisions a perfectly gracious and humanistic God, one who reflects, perhaps regrets, and has more to learn. It is a similar image of God as is presented in her book of short poems, God Went to Beauty School.
The Heavenly Village provides a dreamlike place where human needs for forgiveness, connection and wholeness are understood, respected and supported. It is a kind and provocative vision.
Mitch Albom was a sports journalist and broadcaster when he wrote the bestseller, Tuesdays with Morrie. Since the amazing success and popularity of
Tuesdays with Morrie, Albom has written more about life, death, inspiration and meaning of both life and death.
The Five People You Meet in Heaven was his first novel and it was at least partially inspired by the life of his real-life uncle. Like the main character in the book, his uncle was named "Eddie," served in the Philippines in World War II, and lived to age 83.
Albom's view of heaven is of a place where a person gets to learn about the meaning and purpose of one's life and how it is part of a larger story of many persons' lives. Eddie is a depressed widower who works for an amusement park maintaining and repairing the rides. His wife died years ago, they had no children, and he has no family left. On his 83rd birthday, he dies while saving a young girl from a falling amusement park ride. Instead of going directly to heaven or having a sudden enlightenment about his life and life in general, he learns that everyone meets five people after they die and these five people help the person understand more about how the person's life affected and was affected by the lives of others. Some of the five are not surprising but some are very much unexpected. The journey to understanding that he takes with each of the five guides is reminiscent of other fables such as Dickens'
A Christmas Carol and the movie
It's a Wonderful Life. Interesting that in all three stories it is a man, not a woman, who needs to be enlightened as to how his life has meaning and worth in its deep interconnection with the welfare and lives of others.
Albom is a good storyteller and keeps the reader's interest throughout. His vision taps into the human desire to know and understand that our lives matter and that forgiveness is still possible in the end—an end in which we all will be one of the five people someone else will meet in heaven.

Teltumbde, Dynka Pace Lady Raiders on Opening Day In Midland
Sandra Dynka helped pace the Lady Raiders to a 9-1 record on the day one in Midland.
September 14, 2012
MIDLAND, Texas - No. 22 Texas Tech opened the 2012-13 women's tennis season right where it left off - winning convincingly.
Rashmi Teltumbde and Sandra Dynka paced the Lady Raiders to nine wins in 10 matches on the first day of the Midland Racquet Club Collegiate Invitational on Friday at the Midland Racquet Club.
"We played outstanding today," said assistant coach Todd Chapman. "It was a great start to the season. You really could not have asked for any better effort. I am very impressed with them all. It speaks volumes to the amount of work that they have put in heading into the season."
Teltumbde and Dynka each dispatched a pair of opponents in singles play to advance to the quarterfinals of the tournament.
Teltumbde, who is ranked No. 105 nationally and seeded second in the event, dumped Brook Dennis of UTA, 6-2, 6-2, in the second round and survived Rice's Dominique Harmath, 6-4, 1-6, 7-6. Dynka cruised by Texas State's Melissa Hadad, 6-2, 6-2 and tripped TCU's Mokia Sirilova, 6-1, 7-6 to advance to the quarterfinals.
Freshman Kelli Hine defeated Abilene Christian's Britney Reed, 7-5, 6-2 in the first round and then upset sixth-seeded Janine Weinreich, 3-6, 6-2, 6-1 in the second round.
Freshman Sofya Malysheva was not as lucky in her collegiate debut, as she fell 6-4, 6-1 to Kim Anicete of Rice in the second round, but rebound to defeat Nebraska's Isabella Zegerska, 6-3, 6-4 in the consolation bracket.
In doubles action, both tandems advanced to the second round.
Texas Tech returns to action on Saturday at 9 a.m.

Can I not add a background image in scene to feel like a arena?
I want to make a arena which will have a long path in a field and player will run only on the path (similar to car race), and after a certain distance this will repeat. How will I make such environment in game. Idea, concept or reference links will be appreciated.

sushil_tiwari1123 Started The Discussion:Dear All, Can u send me a format of dismissal letter for the theft misconduct. Its Urgent.:?:
If theft has been proved beyond any doubt, dismissal can be awarded. But before dismissing it is better to give him a chance of being herd in person. Therefore, I suggest you to conduct a disciplinary enquiry after serving him a charge sheet. Otherwise, your dismissal order may bounce back. There are postings with formats of charge sheets about Disciplinary Action available in this forum. Please get it. The following link directs you to one of such presentations. http://www.citehr.com/blogs/madhu-t-...ry-action.html Regards, Madhu.T.K

Joel DeJong, Extension Field Agronomist, Northwest Area
Problem Statement
NRCS in Plymouth has several crop producers participating in an EQIP program concentrating on improved nutrient and pest management. However, the information needed by producers to improve their skills in this area is often not available in the knowledge base of the staff at local NRCS offices. Assistance in training EQIP participants was needed.
Programmatic Response
NRCS contracted with Joel DeJong to offer bi-monthly meetings or field days to discuss issues for improvement in nutrient and pest management with EQIP participants. Meetings discussing P, K, pH and nitrogen management took center stage at some of these events. One meeting focused on pest issues. Field scouting workshops were held twice, and one day was spent looking at the 5-foot root zone and discussing how the root takes up nutrients and water.
Average attendance at these sessions continued at about 30 EQIP participants.
In a recent meeting with some of the participants, a survey of practices was conducted. ISUs N rate calculator typically recommends about 110 to 145# N per acre after soybeans, and about 150 190# N/acre after corn. EQIP participants noted that 8% used <100# N/acre, 63% applied 100 125#, 23% applied 125 140#, 8% applied 140 160#, and none applied over that level when corn was following soybeans. For corn after corn, responses were 44% between 125 150#, 44% from 150# to 175#, and 11% at 200+# of N. Almost all were at or below the median for ISU recommendations. After alfalfa, 31% applied 0# N, 38% 10 to 50#, and 16% over 50# of N. 63% reported that they have used the late spring N test to change their application rate, and 15% more used it to confirm what they were doing.
The same group was surveyed about some of their pest management practices. 92% used an established scouting process for pests on the majority of their acres, and compared that data with thresholds to determine the need for management. 83% kept records on a field-by-field basis monitoring pest activity. 85% selected varieties or hybrids with resistance to certain pests, 77% used field maps of previous weed problems in making weed management decisions. 46% adjusted planting or harvesting to avoid pests, 42% changed row spacing or plant density to reduce pest risks. 92% reported that they rotated crops in specific fields in the past 3 years. Finally, 54% monitored yields to determine if IPM treated areas yielded better than non-IPM areas. For that 54%, 13% reported yields were the same, 25% indicated yields improved 1 -2 bushels/acre, 38% saw a 3 5 bu/a increase, and 25% noted a 5 10 bushel per acre yield boost with these management practices.
We will continue these workshops in 2008.

What should the True Sith BE Like?

If Kreia's speculation is correct, Revan went about studying the ways of the Sith, named himself "Darth", and tried to forge an empire out of the Republic because he became aware of these "unknown" Sith and believed them to be a threat to the fate of the galaxy. Of course, being twisted by the Dark Side, we can't be certain about the truth of such implications, but it's out there, and if true, likely makes these True Sith a lot more bad*** than anything we've previously seen.
My personal belief is that they are the descendants of those who built the tombs on Korriban who in turn are of the Sith species, or descendants of the Sith species...and while retaining a number of physical characteristics of the Sith species to mark them as "different," appear largely human as a result of a couple thousand years of interbreeding.
Culturally and philosophically they therefore would fall closest to the Marka Ragnos/Ludo Kressh/Naga Sadow line of Sith and Dark Side Force users. My impression, however, differs from others stated. I would classify these Sith more along the lines of "fanatical" than cold, calculating, and heartless. The Sith whom the exiled Jedi encountered treated, maybe even worshipped, those Jedi as gods. I'm not versed enough in the EU to know whether that's how they viewed Ragnos, Kressh, and Sadow, but by virtue of the tombs on Korriban it would seem that the Dark Lords of the Sith were still revered as entities of great power at that time.
So in my mind, I'm thinking that rather than typical political and military channels, espionage, and treachery, the True Sith are believers in more abstract causes as a means to power, like "divine right" and the "glory of the Dark Side" and other similar concepts put forward by religious fanatics for why they must conquer the world. I can imagine that rather than just follow the tennets of the Dark Side philosophy like the line of Sith Revan spawned, they might actually "worship" the Dark Side in a manner of speaking.
