George Hugh Johnson Keating, 94, of Amarillo died Wednesday, June 17, 2009.
Memorial Mass will be celebrated at 10 a.m. Saturday in St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church Chapel with Monsignor Joseph Tash officiating. Inurnment will be at a later date in Llano Cemetery by Schooler Funeral Home, 4100 S. Georgia St.
George was born Aug. 15, 1914, in El Paso. He grew up in Toyah and graduated from the University of Texas in 1935 with a degree in chemical engineering. He was a member of the engineering honor society, Tau Beta Pi. After graduating, he went to work for The Texas Co., later known as Texaco. He worked for Texaco for 43 years and retired in 1978. At the time of his retirement, he was manager of the Texaco refinery in Amarillo.
His career with Texaco began in Port Arthur. He moved in 1945 to Buenos Aires, Argentina, where he spent 3½ years. He worked in Puerto la Cruz, Venezuela, for four years, from 1949 to 1953, after which he moved to El Paso. In 1956, he was transferred to Santiago de Cuba, Cuba, and worked there until 1958, when he was transferred back to Venezuela, where he lived and worked for five more years. In 1963, he moved to Guatemala City, Guatemala, to start up a new refinery. In 1964, he moved back to Port Arthur and worked there for three years. He moved to Amarillo in 1967.
The family wishes to express their heartfelt appreciation to the very special people at BSA Hospice.
He was preceded in death by Virginia, his beloved wife of 69 years.
Survivors include a son, John Keating and wife Katie of Amarillo; a grandson, Kenneth Keating and wife Robyn of Fort Worth; a great-grandson, Lake; a granddaughter, Kristin Keating of Dallas; a sister, Frances Means of El Paso; and a brother, Stephen Schubert of Hot Springs, Ark.

1. Relocating Buildings
Sometimes a project required some unusual task, like this
"Caretaker's cottage being moved down State Road to new location."
This picture was taken in July of 1936 in St. Mary's City, and the moving job was part of Maryland WPA project #182,
"St. Mary's Seminary sewer & repairs."
(Information from picture's description card)

2. Rail Yard Improvement
In this picture, WPA workers are seen making improvements to a rail yard in Baltimore. Notice the workers building some sort of structure in the background. Maryland WPA project #24, photo taken May 1936.

Nursery Schools
This picture shows a WPA nursery school in Cambridge. Note the box crate chairs. The WPA helped staff and operate many nursery schools across the country,
"for the purpose of aiding children of low-income families."
As of October 1942, there were twenty six operating in Maryland. But there were calls from the public for more, since so many fathers had gone off to war and so many mothers had taken jobs in the defense industries. Once again, we see how the WPA proved beneficial to the war effort. ("More Nursery Schools Urged,"
Baltimore Sun
, October 28, 1942, p. 5)
The description for this photo reads,
"Lunch time for children attending the Carroll Mansion Nursery School."
Maryland WPA project #8251B, date unknown.
The description for this photo only reads,
"NYA Nursery."
This may mean that the nursery school here was staffed primarily by high school and college students in the National Youth Administration. Maryland WPA project #8251C, date unknown.
back to top menu
Baltimore City Atlas
The description for this photo reads,
"Drafting City Atlas."
The photo was taken in February of 1936, and was Maryland WPA project #191. The atlas was begun as a Civil Works Administration project, and then picked up by the WPA. As of July 1939, the project had taken up 6 years of work and needed extra money to continue (which it received). However the time and money seems somewhat warranted since the last Baltimore atlas was created in 1914. Additionally, the work for the new atlas entailed an examination of a quarter million land titles, field surveys of 6,500 city blocks, and the drafting of the maps as shown above. In 1939, the 6 WPA draftsmen working on the project received $78 per month, which is about $1,251 in 2011 dollars (about a $15,000 annual salary). ("Atlas Of City Nearly Ready After 6 Years,"
Baltimore Sun
, July 9, 1939, p. 18)

5. Dams
The Savage River Dam, in Garrett County. I haven't done much research on the WPA's dam work in Maryland, but my understanding is that the Savage River Dam was started as a WPA project, but later completed by the Army Corps of Engineers. The WPA did not finish the job because of the impact of the war and/or because of the closing of the WPA program altogether at the end of June 1943. (See, e.g., "WPA To Drop 3,000 From State Rolls,"
Baltimore Sun
, June 27, 1941, p. 13) Photo taken January 2012.
back to top menu
Retaining Walls
The WPA's vast infrastructure work included many retaining walls. This retaining wall was built for the Coast Guard in Baltimore, and was Maryland WPA project #526. Photo taken August 1936.
This photo was taken in April 1937, and shows a WPA-built retaining wall at the intersection of Church Rd. and Sylvan Lane in Ellicott City. It was Maryland WPA project #676.
Here, WPA workers are building a retaining wall in Frostburg, along route 40, in November 1938. Maryland WPA project #3355.
The Frostburg retaining wall today. Photo taken 2011.

. The Baltimore Aquarium
: This building in Druid Hill park served as a pump house (1914-1928), an aquarium (1938-1948), and the Baltimore Zoo's Reptile House (1948-2004). It is not currently in use. Photo taken January 2012.
A brief history of the Baltimore Aquarium (1938-1948)
Many Marylanders are probably not aware that there was a Baltimore Aquarium at Druid Hill Park long before the present (and fantastic) one at the Inner Harbor. It lasted from 1938 to 1948 and was in the same building as the subsequent, but now-closed Reptile House of the Maryland (Baltimore) Zoo. Serious planning for it began in 1936
("Plans For City Aquarium And Fish Hatchery Made,"
Baltimore Sun
, August 12, 1936, p. 20).
Just two months later, plans were developing nicely. An aquarium committee sponsoring the project had received about $8,000 in pledges from various civic organizations, and was preparing to apply for a $12,000 WPA grant (that's about $130,000 and $195,000, respectively, in 2011 dollars). The committee planned to exhibit fish from the Chesapeake Bay, and also some tropical fish. Furthermore, the aquarium was to be named "Jackson Aquarium," in honor of Baltimore's then-Mayor Howard W. Jackson. The old pumping station, to be converted into the aquarium, is described as a structure
"at the northwest end of the park, near Green Spring Avenue. It was abandoned when the Ashburton pumping station was put in operation several months ago."
("$12,000 WPA Grant Is Sought For Aquarium In Druid Hill Park,"
Baltimore Sun
, October 22, 1936, p. 28)
On February 14, 1937 it was reported that
President Roosevelt had approved WPA funds for the aquarium
("Announces Funds For Park Aquarium,"
Baltimore Sun
, p. 20).
A lengthy article was written for the
Baltimore Sun
by William Conhurst on February 28, 1937, and it seems to embody the excitement that Baltimore must have felt about their soon-to-be aquarium ("An Aquarium For Baltimore: Druid Hill Pumphouse To Hold Maryland And Foreign Fish," p. MS10). Here are some of the items Conhurst reported:
"Improvements to Baltmore's parks have been few in recent years, but there is now room to hope that by June Druid Hill Park will blossom out with our long-awaited public aquarium, a showplace for a wide variety of water life, readily accessible to a public traveling either by automobile or trolley line."
Planned and possible exhibits included electric eels, penguins, albino frogs, leaf fish, knife fish, sea horses (
Conhurst wrote of the sea horse
"a strange creature whose head is like that of a horse and which carries its young, kangaroo style, in a pouch"
), catfish, small-mouthed and large-mouthed bass, trout, and even a manatee.
There was a proposal to have WPA artists paint murals in the aquarium building.
With respect to the fish hatchery part of the aquarium,
millions of shad were to be hatched and used to restock the Chesapeake Bay.
On April 19, 1937, Harry D. Williar--deputy administrator for the Maryland WPA--ordered work to commence on the Baltimore Aquarium. About 50 WPA workers were assigned to the job. ("Orders Work To Start At Once On Druid Hill Park Aquarium,"
Baltimore Sun
, April 20, 1937, p. 26)
By December of 1937, progress was still going well ("Baltimore's New Aquarium Will Open About December 1,"
Baltimore Sun
, September 26, 1937, p. 18). But somewhere along the line, the opening was delayed from December 1937 to June 1938. On the bright side, the WPA mural proposal seems to have been adopted:
"...the walls and ceiling of the aquarium are being adorned with murals by Donald Coale, depicting Maryland fish and fishing scenes."
(Katherine Scarborough, "Baltimore's Aquarium Takes Shape,"
Baltimore Sun
, May 1, 1938, p. SM2)
The aquarium's construction proceeded as planned, and on June 1, 1938
Mayor Jackson spoke during the aquarium's opening ceremony, and thanked the various parties responsible for its creation, including the WPA
("Aquarium Opened After Dedication,"
Baltimore Sun
, June 2, 1938, p. 22). The aquarium apparently had about 50 tanks of various sizes, two pools at ground level, and perhaps a few things outside the building too (more research is needed here).
By November of 1938, the Baltimore Aquarium seems to have been doing very well, despite a few of the animals dying. Types of fish on display included flying barbs, bull minnows, white perch, Siamese fighting fish, Chinese walking fish, and piranhas. It was reported that
"More than 5,000 persons visit the aquarium every week..."
("Drama Is Being Enacted At Municipal Aquarium,"
Baltimore Sun
, November 6, 1938, p. 14)
Unfortunately, it seems that visitation rates & revenue did not keep up with the resource needs of the Baltimore Aquarium for very long, and the aquarium was converted into the longer-lasting and better-remembered "Reptile House" of the Maryland (Baltimore) Zoo in 1948 ("New Reptile House Opened At Park,"
Baltimore Sun
, August 6, 1948, p. 21). However, every once in awhile, someone remembers the old Baltimore Aquarium (See, e.g., "Zoo's Scariest Attraction Reopening: It's Slither Time At The Reptile House,"
Baltimore Sun
, May 25, 1993, p. 1B).
back to top menu
8. Art Classes
The description for this photo reads,
"An art class in the Pratt Library conducted by the art project"
(no date or project number is given). The WPA Federal Art Project--among other goals--strove to
"foster an interest in art among underprivileged children throughout the country."
As of January 1937, the Art Project had provided employment to
"5,300 artists and art teachers in forty-four states."
("Children's Art Exhibit,"
Baltimore Sun
, January 17, 1937, p. SA8)
One such art program took place regularly at the "Maryland House" in Druid Hill Park. Children learned to sketch animals at the Maryland House & the nearby Baltimore Zoo, and, according to the WPA instructor,
"there has not been a single session at which the children have not asked to stay overtime to put additional touches on their drawings"
("Art Pupils Study Horse's Skeleton,"
Baltimore Sun
, August 21, 1938, p. 3). The children's art would sometimes be put on display at a museum or gallery (see, e.g., "Children's Art Show At Museum,"
Baltimore Sun
, September 25, 1938, p. SM8) and, judging by a photo that appeared in the
Baltimore Sun
, of 11-year-old John Sandrock drawing a goat at the zoo, the children had acquired excellent art skills (see cite above, "Art Pupils...").

Transcribing Records & Clerical Work
The description for this photo reads,
"Works Progress Administration of Maryland, Work Project #7011--to provide employment for needy professional and clerical persons to transcribe, catalog, etc., records in the public office of the Dept. of Public Legislative Reference in Baltimore City...showing colored persons engaged in transcribing various records"
(date unknown).
This picture was taken in May of 1941 (project # unknown). The description for it reads,
"WPA clerical workers at Curtis Bay Ordinance Depot, U.S. Army, So. Baltimore, Maryland, who are reclassifying historical records of the Ordinance Department for new files. Work includes reclassifying designs of old and modern guns and other ordinance material."

Q&A with Peder Ulander of Citrix
VSM: What is Citrix announcing today?
PU: Citrix just announced that the company's popular CloudStack solution will become the first cloud platform in the industry to join the market-leading Apache Software Foundation. This supports our mission to deliver a powerful, proven, hypervisor-agnostic platform that helps our customers, regardless of their size, build true Amazon-style clouds. As part of that, Citrix will deliver a commercially supported release of the new Apache CloudStack distribution as the centerpiece of our cloud infrastructure product portfolio.
VSM: Why has Citrix decided to join the Open Source Apache Software Foundation?
PU: Although there are many variations of open source, the Apache Foundation is the most widely trusted name in the industry, and home of the world's most successful open source projects. We wanted to be a part of an organization where open source standards are born. The new Apache CloudStack project will make it easier for customers to deliver cloud services on a platform that is powerful, flexible and "Proven Amazon Compatible." Not to mention CloudStack brings to Apache more than 30,000 community members, thousands of certified apps, and hundreds of production clouds, collectively generating more than $1 billion in cloud revenue from some of the biggest brands in the industry.
VSM: How do Citrix and CloudStack differentiate from its competitors?
PU: While enterprise vendors like VMware attempt to add cloud-like management layers to their existing proprietary datacenter virtualization products, we believe the biggest winners in the Cloud Era will be clouds built on a platform that is based on four key guiding principles:
- Designed from the ground up with a true Amazon-style architecture
- Proven at scale in real production clouds
- Compatible with the Amazon cloud
- Full commitment to openness and open source
CloudStack has gained significant momentum over the past year and is the only cloud platform on the market that meets the first three requirements – nothing else comes close. Elevating CloudStack to a full open source Apache project adds this final dimension and positions CloudStack to become the de-facto industry standard platform for cloud computing.
VSM: How does the process work for becoming an Apache Project?
PU: First of all, CloudStack 3 will be released today, April 3, under Apache Software License 2.0. This is the first step in becoming an official project within the Apache Foundation. Over the next week, we have put together a proposal for how we view the cloud market, the opportunity for the community and the high level vision for the project. We will then submit this to the broad Apache foundation for acceptance into the Apache Incubator program. At that point, we will begin to transition CloudStack.org and our 30,000 member community into the "Apache Incubator" program, where all Apache projects start. This phase will likely last for several months and then CloudStack will be converted into a "Top Level Project" by the Apache community.

New to the Scene
Sophomore guard Joey Millerplayed his first season of college basketball at Eastern Illinois before transferring to UIC -- he was given immediate eligibility with the Flames after being granted a hardship waiver from the NCAA. Miller scored 10.4 points per game in his freshman season with the Panthers, and was named the Ohio Valley Conference (OVC) Freshman of the Week on three occasions.
Other newcomers include point guard Jay Parker (So.), a transfer from Highland C.C., along with freshmen post players Matt Gorski and Jake Wiegand, a pair of Virginia natives that both played one year of postgraduate basketball at Fishburne Military Academy (Va.). Gorski is a 7-footer that possesses both the size and upside to be a dominant center in the Horizon League.
Gabe Snider, a local product from Whitney Young High School in Chicago, joins the Flames after a standout prep career. One of the top shooters in the state of Illinois as a senior, Snider helped the Dolphins capture back-to-back regional titles and make two deep runs in the IHSA State Tournament. Also joining the program are freshmen guard walk-ons Austin Angel (Wilmette, Ill./New Trier) and Ngijol Songolo(Madison, Wis./Memorial).

Moore Inks McGuire, Whitaker in Early Signing Period
McGuire chose to attend UIC over the likes of Milwaukee, Evansville and Northern Illinois. The 6-foot-3, 200-pound guard is regarded as one of the top shooters in the state of Indiana heading into his senior season. He averaged 16.3 points, five rebounds and 2.5 assists for Elkhart Memorial as a junior.
Whitaker is a 6-foot-4, 195-pound wing (guard/forward) that averaged 16.5 points and 6.1 rebounds for Bartlett High School as a sophomore. On the AAU circuit, he played for the Illinois Wolves under the tutelage of coach Mike Mullins, the father of former Southern Illinois standout guard Bryan Mullins. Along with his scoring ability, Whitaker is also known as one of the best on-the-ball defenders in the state of Illinois.

3.2 per cent of Mac users download Mountain Lion in 48 hours
Exceeds three million downloads in four days
APPLE'S LATEST Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion operating system has been downloaded by over three per cent of Mac users just 48 hours after release.
Advertising firm Chitika said in a post on its Insights blog Friday that its metric tool marked the Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion that Apple released last Wednesday at a 3.2 per cent share.
"With 3.2 per cent of all Mac users upgrading to OS X Mountain Lion in the first 48 hours, Apple's latest operating system stands to do much better than its predecessor OS X Lion, which experienced only a 14 per cent market share after 3 months on the market," the company ventured in the blog post.
The report came two days after Apple released its latest version of OS X and made it available to users as a £14 download through the Apple App Store.
The update is the first major Mac OS X upgrade for over a year, and aims to close the gap between Apple's Mac OS X and IOS. Once installed, Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion delivers over 200 new features to Mac computers, including enhanced Icloud support, Facebook integration, Imessage support and voice dictation.
However, as revealed by Apple last month, not all Mac owners are able to upgrade. Mountain Lion isn't compatible with Macbooks dated pre-2007 or Mac Minis before 2009, making the 3.2 per cent share a bit more impressive.
Chitika said Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard remains the most popular version of OS X on the market with a 45.51 per cent share. Mountain Lion's predecessor, Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, was second with a 34.97 per cent piece of the Apple Mac market.
Apple issued a press release today saying that downloads of OS X Mountain Lion have exceeded three million in four days, making it the most successful OS X release in Apple's history.
"Just a year after the incredibly successful introduction of Lion, customers have downloaded Mountain Lion over three million times in just four days, making it our most successful release ever," Apple SVP of Worldwide Marketing Philip Schiller said. µ

Residents organizing against North Causeway apartments
Published: Friday, January 4, 2013 at 5:43 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 4, 2013 at 7:05 p.m.
NEW SMYRNA BEACH — City Hall could become a sea of red Monday evening as residents are expected to show up en masse to protest a 239-unit apartment complex slated for the city's North Causeway.
If you go
WHAT: Planning and Zoning Board meeting
WHEN: Monday at 6:30 p.m.
WHERE: New Smyrna Beach City Hall Commission Chambers, 210 Sams Avenue
The Planning and Zoning Board meeting at 6:30 p.m. could be a sequel to the scene that played out Sept. 5 at the Brannon Center when hundreds of citizens showed up, many wearing red and carrying signs in opposition to Causeway Landings. Atlantic Housing Partners' plans for the project call for several four-story buildings with a mix of market-rate, affordable and senior units in the 100 block of the North Causeway.
It's the affordable component that's especially drawn the ire of residents who live near the development site and have become part of a group called New Smyrna Beach Citizens for Smart Growth.
"We need massive public participation — bigger than Sept. 5 — to demonstrate our commitment, to show our determination and to demonstrate that we will not be intimidated and are not going away," an email from the citizens group reads.
The email goes on to ask everyone to again dress in red, be well-behaved, "but passionate and animated" and have homemade signs that say: "ENFORCE THE AGREEMENT! IT'S THE LAW!"
Atlantic Housing Partners is asking the Planning and Zoning Board on Monday to amend a 2005 development agreement that runs with the 14-acre property, in part to remove a cap that limits the number of units that can be built on the site at 202. That agreement is set to expire in 2015.
Marty Danaher, one of the heads of the Citizens for Smart Growth, said his group wants Atlantic Housing Partners to live up to the development agreement and build something similar to a condominium project that was planned several years ago on the site by a Georgia developer. That project fell through in part because of a lack of financing.
Danaher said the turnout at Monday's meeting would not be disruptive and would be based more on size than noise.
"It's just a demonstration to let everyone know, including the developer, that we're not going away," he said.
Planning Manager Gail Henrikson said Atlantic Housing Partners submitted a site plan for Causeway Landings on Dec. 14. Those plans are separate from the development agreement. They were supposed to be looked at Friday morning by the city's Plan Review Committee, a body that gets the first look at plans for certain types of projects. But no one from Atlantic Housing Partners showed up for the meeting, Henrikson said.
Because of that, Causeway Landings' site plan will now go before the Plan Review Committee in February, which would mean the agenda item wouldn't appear on the Planning and Zoning Board's docket until April at the earliest, she said.

Guilmet, who has gone nine innings in each of his last four starts, improved to 7-0 while lowering his Pac-10-best ERA to 1.58 in his third complete game of the season. He allowed just the one run, on a solo homer in the second, and five hits, while walking only one. He struck out the side in four of his nine innings of work to help UA improve to 10-0 in games he has started this season.
Offensively T.J. Steele led a big night at the plate for the Cats, finishing 3 for 5 with four RBI, a double, his third home run of the year and two runs scored. C.J. Ziegler hit his team-leading eighth homer of the year and two doubles to go 3 for 5 on night. He added three RBI and a run scored.
Brad Glenn, who finished 2 for 5, hit his 13th double of the season, and Colt Sedbrook chipped in with three hits and a pair of runs scored.
The Wildcats jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the second on Steele's solo homer to right, but the Cardinal answered back with a solo blast Brian Juhl in the home half of the frame to tie the game at 1-1.
Steele added to his tally with a two-run double in the fourth to make it 3-1 Arizona, before coming around to score on Dwight Childs' triple two batters later to stake the Cats to a three-run edge.
Dating back to the Hawaii game on March 9 (last five starts), Preston Guilmet is 4-0 with a 0.82 ERA in 44 innings of work. He has punched out 54 batters, walked only 12 and opponents are batting just .175 against him during this stretch ... Guilmet's 15 Ks were the most for a UA pitcher since Kevin Guyette punched out 15 on Feb. 26, 2005 against UC Riverside ... Guilmet's 15 Ks tied the team single-game high for the year ... T.J. Steele's home run in the second inning on Friday ended a seven-game homerless drought for the Wildcats ... Steele's four RBI on Friday were a career-high ... C.J. Ziegler's two-run homer in the ninth was his first since March 13 at Hawaii-Hilo ... Of Ziegler's 48 hits for the season, more than half have gone for extra bases (16 doubles, two triples, eight home runs - 26 total, 54%) ... Over his last five games, Ziegler is batting .571 (12 for 21) with five doubles, a home run, nine RBI and seven runs scored ... Arizona has now won 12 straight Pac-10 games and four consecutive road conference contests dating back to last season ...

Dear Val:Response:
After I shampoo, am I supposed to put products on my hair in a particular order?
After I shampoo, am I supposed to put products on my hair in a particular order?
Yes, that's a good idea, says Eva Scrivo, owner of the eponymous salon in New York City, because each product has a different function. After you shampoo, start with a conditioner or detangler to coat the hair so that the styling products you use next will be evenly absorbed. Follow that, if you like, with a mousse, styling gel, or styling lotion, which you should comb through your hair for even distribution, to increase the product's effectiveness. (Combing through ensures that the stuff covers the whole strand instead of just lying on top of it, so you get more volume or moisture saturation or whatever it is you're going for.) Finally, if your hair is frizzy or hard to control, work a silicone-based smoothing product through the ends before you blow-dry. After you've done your styling, you can use a spray for shine and hold, or, if you want a piecey look, try a texturizing wax.
Bottom Line: The magic formula is condition, style, then hold.

I've been playing Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 for a while now. For a while I thought my skills were going up (progressing from amateur to legend), but I noticed that when I got to around Pro level that my stats hadn't seemed to have any effect on my gameplay.
So I had a look at the stats screen and noticed that I have a yellow line capping me at 10% and what was increasing was my potential. How do I remove the cap or make it increase? I've won a few tournies on the tour so I thought it might go up after winning my first one, then maybe my second one, now I'm on about 7 so I'm guessing that's not it.
Any ideas? Its really ruining the gameplay for me. Although the difficulty at having a golfer so technically challenged is actually quite fun.

Earlier this week, Techloy exclusively reported that one of the world's most valuable extensions, .ng which happens to be the well-sought after Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Nigeria will be sold for less than $100 USD per domain name.
Today, we learned that some accredited domain registrars and resellers have began
selling prepping up their domain registration portals for what may soon become a gold rush for the .ng second level domain.
When we looked up domain registrars like Web4Africa, we found that they've already made the .ng SLD available to register for less than $95, but have not started selling them yet.
For example, most of the generic names such as Data.ng, Internet.ng, and a host of other names we tried were available for registration at the price of $93.75 USD (about N14,700 NGN), although you can't order them yet. [See screenshot below]
We asked Web4Africa's Managing Director, Oluniyi Ajao why this is the case and he told us that it's because they only configured it since the announcement was made on Monday, but are neither taking pre-orders nor selling yet, due to the fact that country's official domains registrar, NiRA has kept it on hold.
"There's a warning there if you try to order now," he added.
NiRA revised its Domain Name Auction Policy earlier this month which previously puts generic domains or brand names at a premium price of N3 million for the .ng Second-Level Domain.
The domain registrar also said that it has reserved "a special category of domain names determined to be of premium value", which "will be available via auction only".
The .ng SLD remains one of the most valuable extensions in the domains market since it creates virtually any verb-related web domain on the surface of the Internet.
Already, global companies such as Google and Microsoft have taken a slice of the .ng second (2nd) level cake, each of them reportedly paying about $20,000 (about N3 million) per domain name last year.
It would be interesting to see if the .ng would become the next oil of Africa's oil-rich and most populous country.
Could it eventually become the most popular domain name extension in the world?

I have been using WinVNC for some time with different clients. My Win2000 machine has a tendence to crash while taking over some other machine: - Rarely when running VNCViewer.exe - Occasionally when in "Listening mode" with some remote PCs - Within a minute or two when in "Listening mode" with some other remote PCs. Those PCs could run Win98 or WinNT - it makes no difference. The symptoms are always the same: - My Win2000 machine reboots as if I had pressed the "Reset" button. - There is no event log, dump file etc. - The remote machine is not affected. On occasions I can see what's coming: The remote machine stops responding to my keystrokes, and within 30 seconds or so my machine reboots. I turned of ZoneAlarm Pro but found that this had no effect. Any suggestions? Fritz Lang

Clarissa Rizal's Chilkat mask in the making; no eyeballs were woven for the allowance of the black warp to be cut so the wearer of the mask can see out — April 2016
Initially I wove this Chilkat mask with the intention of putting it in the Stonington Gallery's show of Northwest Coast masks which opened on June 2nd; however, due to attending to immediate health issues this past Spring and other significant deadlines, I did not complete the mask in time. Yet, I was determined to have the mask at least dance during Celebration, so during my few hours manning our booth at the Art Market, I finished the second part of the mask which was the headdress.
Click on the video clip (below) showing the dancing of the mask/headdress during David Boxley, Sr.'s dance group singing a great song and beat of their Exit song during Celebration 2016, June 11th. Thank you, Stephanie Maddock for the video clip!
One of my favorite poets, David Budbill has been dealing with rapidly declining health lately and while the conversations I've had with him over the years have been marked by a striking optimism, the challenges of being a writer who is losing the physical ability to write are becoming too much for even the most optimistic and zen of mountain recluse poets. Here's a recent conversation between Budbill and longtime friend, David French. HIt the link for the full conversation, http://www.davidbudbill.com/1500/a-conversation-with-david-budbill
David French's questions and comments are in italics. Unless otherwise indicated, all the poems are David Budbill's.
But let's talk about what's happening in your life right now.
The major thing that I'm dealing with is my Parkinson's disease, my rare form of Parkinson's disease. It has incapacitated me and made me incapable of all the things I used to love to do: I would cut wood and garden and mow, and I can't do any of those anymore. So I've had to revise my life completely. So far I haven't revised my life; I've just cancelled it, dropped out.
Now that's not entirely true, because before I dropped out, I was able to finish a novel and a short story and a collection of poems, and they're all coming out in the next year. So I did that before I cancelled my life.
The last time I was here, you said all this happened a year ago, when you moved to Montpelier.
Up until then, you'd still been working on your novel and your stories and your poem.
I suppose, yeah.
There recently was a song cycle of your poems at the Elley-Long Music Center. One song was about doing things for the last time. It was beautiful, but with an ache to it. You must have done a lot of that leaving Wolcott, walking around, looking around, knowing that was the last time you'd cut this wood or stack it or put it in the stove.
It was. Yeah, it was heartbreaking, because that was my identity, and now it's no longer that. Which is no doubt one of the reasons I'm in limbo now.
So you're not writing now.
No, I'm not.
You're not making music.
Another theme that keeps coming up in your poetry, sometimes in very funny ways, is the lament over not having been a major voice in the poetry world. You wrote about the life of "genteel poverty and meditation" you lead:
…which gives me lots of time
to gnash my teeth and worry over
how I want to be known and read
by everyone and have admirers
everywhere and lots of money!
Is that something you would still write a poem about at this point, or is that an old theme that isn't something you think about anymore?
I certainly think about it.
You still do?
You would like to be higher on whatever the poetry best-seller list is?
And have more money from it, recognition.
Yeah. Of course, who wouldn't?
You've written:
When I came to Judevine Mountain
I thought
all my troubles would cease,
but I brought… my ambition –
so now, still,
all I know is grief.
Well, that's true. I have this thing about ambition. I can't live with it, and I can't live without it.

Glock 22, mexican carry, empty chamber
I carry an STI Ranger II .45 ACP IWB. As a CHL instructor I have access to quite a few guns and carried a Kimber for a few years, but one hour on the range with the STI and I was sold. Over 5,000 rounds later and only 1 malfunction which was ammo related.http://www.stiguns.com/guns/RangerII...r2Web_800w.jpg
SIG239 SAS Gen2 9mm in a Milt Sparks VersiMax2 IWB holster! Dennis
I carry a brace of Kimbers, Eclipse Ultra II .45 and an Ultra RCP II also in .45.
I like the inside the waistband holster for the primary and a Galco ankle glove for the second. My IWB holster used to be a Milt Sparks but now I wear a generic one out of the Brownells catalog and it rocks.
Fun survey -
I carry in the following way / caliber:
In cold weather - Sig Sauer P2022 in 9mm or a Ruger P345 in .45 cal. in OWB Gelco on the belt.
80% time I carry a Ruger LCP in DeSantis pocket holster in my pocket (you can not see it at all).
Or Sig P230 SL or Walther PPK/S in a fanny pac, or camera bag.
A .40 IWB either a SIG P229 or Walther PPS.
Glock 19 IWB
I use my ruger super redhawk .44 mag 7.5" bbl in a shoulder holster.
Laugh if you want....
Mostly a Taurus 905 revovler owb or a Bersa 380 when needed to carry smaller.
Beretta Cougar L in a Galco Yaqui holster.
Springfield XD 45 Compact in a Blade-Tech or Desantis IWB Holster .... all very comfy and hardly know it is there
Depending on the weather I carry either my Mill. Pro Taurus .40 with sholder holster. Hotter days either the Bersa .380 or my snub nose .357 Taurus the last 2 I carry useing a belt holster.:smt033
I carry a Glock 9mm (model 26) on my ankle in a Galco Ankle Glove 99% of the time. Once in a blue moon, I'll carry it in an IWB holster.
when I am off duty I carry a Smith and Wesson airweight .38 in my pocket. I sometimes carry my colt series 80 officer's model .45acp in a paddle holster at the small of my back. The recoil of my snub nose is horrible with +P and +P+ ammo though.
I'm curious why 9mm is called LIGHT in this survey?
I carry a "light" :smt104 9mm OD green Glock 26 w/11+1 Speer Gold Dot Hollow Points + another 12 in a spare mag. When I OC it rides in a Serpa holster and when I conceal (after I get my CCW in the mail) it will ride in a crossbreed supertuck holster (by FAR the best and most comfortable IWB holster I have EVER owned!)
Glock 36, IWB w/extra mag. Corbon +P 165
ANother old thread that has been around for a while...
I currently carry a Beretta 92FS in a Comptac IWB holster - I will be switching to a Beretta M9A1 (railed Beretta) in another week or so when my holster arrives.
I generally use 124 gr 9mm Hydrashok or 124 gr 9mm Golddot for defensive purposes.
I was just reading over this thread and saw my avitar and said to myself I didn't think I posted here before. But someone else shares my avitar....only his is better then mine too....freaked me out for a second.
I carry a 9mm Kahr in a leather / Kydex hybrid tuckable type IWB holster....It doesnt get mudch nicer to carry then that!!!
working i carry a glock 19 with a clip-draw,rt.hand/s.o.b..and a xd.45 service mod. o.e.m. holster/com-tac tri-layer belt on rt.hip at 4 o'clock.the belt makes it work.also micro-tech o.t.f. halo 3 in a neck-sheath,spyderco police 3 clipped rt.hip pocket,s.o.g.aegis clipped left frt.not working,the glock,spyderco,and aegis,in same places,at work everybody is in tandem.
looking here i see myself and one other person are the ones who kept clip-draw in business? come on.the damn thing works .IWB of course ,1 o'clock to 6,clip it all around,SOB seems to work pretty good,but kidney,hip,and appendix(mexican),even cross-draw are very feasible and have their own advantages with the clip,a good belt is a must though.not bad-mouthing other carry methods this one works for me,and with those push out trigger pop-locks you can even carry a glock with one in the spout with out sweating shooting off your tender business
Kahr CM9 with 124 gr +p Gold Dot. Pocket holster is a Desantis Super Fly. The Holster is very comfortable and if you are concerned about printing the Super Fly comes with a velcro flap that covers the entire firearm. I decided not to use the added flap due to slowing me down reaching for the butt of the firearm.
Colt .45, 1911, in a belt holster
I've got a G26 which I've so far carried IWB, in a 5.11 fanny pack, and an army cammo man purse (very manly). I also have a 5.11 undershirt with built in holster but it's been too hot to try that out yet. Need a different IWB holster - the one I'm using hurts.

layer cake tips + the biggest birthday cake yet
My father-in-law, youthful guy that he is, turned 60 this past weekend and if you think I was going to allow my in-laws to purchase him a cake from a bakery, oh, you don't know how even typing those words caused the shudder to rise up in my chest. A bakery cake! Promise me if I make it to 60, I get a homemade cake too. I hope to have leveraged enough cake-baking karma by then to not even have to ask.

Today's post is from contributing blogger Jim Courtney, entrepreneur and author of Experience Skype to the Max.
An experience last week brought a sharp reminder that Skype remains a significant tool for customer support. Sometimes our communications activities become so transparent to the underlying technology that we forget the full value-add of the offering.
I am the webmaster for a small vacation lodging rental company associated with a vacation condominium at a major Eastern Canada ski and golf resort. Our website uses WordPress to provide an overview and take reservations. For the latter, the website is tied into a cloud-based hotel management system that supports the entire guest visitor experience from booking reservations through to issuing a final invoice. This involves coordination with the hotel management system provider.
Recently the hotel management system provider pointed out that the link into the reservation system had an issue for visitors using the latest version of Internet Explorer. I was provided with a phone number to call their support team. As is my habit these days when in my office, I use Skype to make such calls.
During the past couple of years I have found myself using multiple desktop/screen sharing offerings, but at the mercy of the company whose tech support operation I have contacted. Yet I usually communicate with my own clients using Skype and its various features. In this particular situation, I was able to turn the tables and convince the support agent to use Skype to support the conversation.
Support for Support Agents
The support agent had suggested I send critical information via email; I responded by asking if he had a Skype account. One minute into that Skype call and I realized we needed to exchange URL's, identify correct spellings and share some screen captures.
In the course of the conversation, we:
- Brought up Skype screen sharing, selected an FTP client window
- Shared an image (using SnagIt's sharing to Skype feature) showing how to access the website files via ftp.
- Exchanged WordPress login information
- Browsed the website to point out and confirm issues visually
- Identified inactive URL's that needed to be replaced
- Confirmed the spelling of a French word
- Exchanged email addresses with actionable links
- Shared actionable URL's
In closing the conversation I suggested the company look into using Skype as a communications tool to complement their other support infrastructure. A day later I received an email requesting additional information, so I created a Skype chat to exchange to clarify a situation, including references to archived information provided during the initial conversation.
One more important feature: on Windows and Mac systems, all that information is stored for later recall using Skype's Search feature (Ctrl-F or Command-F brings up the search box). I have some contact dialogs going back six years and find it very handy for "forgotten" information, such as URLs, meeting notes, passwords and more.
Skype has evolved over the past ten years. But in these times of changing and evolving communications choices we can easily forget that Skype remains a premier tool for chat/voice/video calls along with real time screen sharing, sending files, and placing calls to landlines and mobile phones worldwide. Incorporating Skype as one more tool into a business's customer sales and support activities can backup sales conversations, make support more productive, ensure that text-based information is clearly spelled out, easily identify issues visually and monitor suggestions for remedies. Recently I used its conversation log as backup for invoicing for my services. And it provides a higher level of security beyond that available via traditional email.

If you love car shows, this is the week to visit Branson. Super Summer Cruise is a three-day event that starts tomorrow, August 11 and culminates with the 2011 Midnight Cruise on Saturday, August 13.
Thousands of car enthusiasts are expected to check out the more than 600 cars on display at the Shepherd of the Hills Homestead. Saturday night's Super Summer Cruise route begins at the corner of Hwy 76 & Shepherd of the Hills Expressway, continues on Shepherd of the Hills Expressway and ends at Roark Valley Road.
Billed as "the largest event of the summer," the show draws people from around the country. If you want a seat to watch the midnight cruise, plan to park your lawn chair along the Shepherd of the Hills Expressway route early Saturday. Hotels along the route are filled but it never hurts to check for last-minute cancellations.

Shakti: Joy
The Best of Shakti (Moment Records MRCD 1011)
John McLaughlin (guitar),
L Shankar (violin), Zakir Hussain (tablas and percussion), R. Raghavan (Mridangam), T.H. Vinayakram (ghatam and percussion).
Composed by John McLaughlin & L Shankar.
Recorded: South Hampton, NY, July 5, 1975
Rating: 95/100 (learn more)
I am sure the fans in South Hampton on Long Island that night in 1975 had no clue what was in store for them when Shakti took the stage. After all, they had come to see the electric guitar God John McLaughlin, who had led the world's loudest band, the Mahavishnu Orchestra. Instead, McLaughlin and his new band, composed of Indian musicians, came on stage without any of the accoutrements needed for a big loud jazz-rock concert. McLaughlin was carrying an acoustic guitar instead of his electric axe. There was an acoustic violinist. And the percussionists had these Indian instruments that had to be unfamiliar to 99% of the audience. After a warm spoken greeting from McLaughlin, the crowd got a good dose of the future.
"Joy's" opening strains are incredibly speedy and intricate. McLaughlin and violinist L Shankar are linked at the hip. Shakti wasn't nearly as loud as Mahavishnu. But in some ways it was still as electric. Many fans had no clue that McLaughlin was just as great, perhaps better, on acoustic guitar. As fellow guitarist John Scofield once said (I am paraphrasing), "Nobody sounds like John McLaughlin does on acoustic guitar." If anything, his blazing speed was even more apparent on an instrument that did not have the sustain of an electric guitar. There are parts of this performance when you wonder why all his strings just don't break. It had taken jazz and rock fans a little time to get used to the violin in the jazz-rock Mahavishnu. Here they had to do it all over again. Except this time they had to get used to an Indian violinist melding the traditions of Indian classical music with Western jazz. The calls and responses between violinist L Shankar and McLaughlin are performed with breathtaking precision and speed. And what about the rhythms of the percussionists? Based upon the Indian cycles of the rag, or raga, they were foreign sounding to most Western fans. But it didn't take long to get caught up in their energy. Zakir Hussain and T.H. Vinayakram were master percussionists in their own country and musical culture. Now they were using that skill and status to help introduce a new jazz-fusion-Indian hybrid. Toward the end of this 18-minute tune, the feverish Indo-jazz head returns, to the raucous cheers of the new fans of Shakti.
Soon there would be world music and world jazz and world fusion. Well, this would actually come about a decade or two later. Being ahead of your time in music is great for posterity but not always so for your wallet. Shakti was unable to penetrate a strong commercial market the first time around.

There is nothing like a pair of hand crafted grips on a favorite gun. Like some foods, some things can be made by hand, or mass produced. Mac and Cheese is one of my favorite foods. Probably a close second behind steak. But not the blue boxed kind. but When I have time it's made the way my Mom did. From scratch, with multiple ingredients, including ham and onions, slow baked until the top is just crunchy.
You can NOT get this in a box or a freezer case. (the recipe and instructions will be in the comments)
You start by sauteing some smoked ham and onions.
Then there is the cheese. Don't panic. This isn't a picture of a pound and a half of butter, it's Irish cheddar, fresh and pure and no orange chemical dyes.
You make a roux (don't worry, there's directions in the recipe) then add the milk and cheese, til a thick bubbly sauce is formed. There's all kinds of flavor in it, including a dash of hot sauce. Pour about half the sauce in with the cooked macaroni, add the ham mixture, then some more cheese, regular cheddar for a bit of color.

The BAE academic program offers a unique and valuable educational experience. While other engineering students may study a single discipline, the BAE program includes coursework in a variety of engineering disciplines, complemented by classes in biological sciences. When students reach advanced-level courses, they choose a specialty area according to their individual interests.
One thing you'll enjoy as a student in the BAE program is the environment. Nearly every BAE student you'll talk to will describe the department in a similar way: "It's like a family." Clichéd as that might sound, we pride ourselves on taking care of our students, on helping them become confident, competent leaders. You'll enjoy a close personal academic experience in which faculty look after the students, and students look after each other. Perhaps that's because the faculty-to-student ratio is much lower than in most other engineering programs, or perhaps it's because we all share an awareness of the higher sense of purpose in our work.
We invite you to visit the Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering Department to learn more about our undergraduate programs. If you would like more information about our programs or would like to schedule a visit, please call or use our Online Schedule Tool. We'd love to hear from you.

STARKVILLE, Miss. – Redshirt sophomore right-hander Preston Brown struck out seven as White cruised to an 8-3 victory against Maroon in Game 1 of Mississippi State's annual Bulldog World Series Wednesday night at Dudy Noble Field. Game two of the best-of-five series takes place Friday at 5 p.m. Admission to the seven-inning exhibition is free.
Brown was dominant from the get-go, giving up two runs (one earned) on two hits and two walks. The right-handed starter fanned seven batters in 5.0 innings, being replaced by freshman left-hander Glenn Irby after a leadoff walk in the sixth. Junior righty Will Cox finished the game for White, hurling two shutout stanzas with three strikeouts and no walks.
Redshirt junior and team captain Wes Rea led the offense for White, finishing 2-for-3 with three RBIs in the five hole. The four white teammates above Rea in the order junior Jake Vickerson, senior Demarcus Henderson, redshirt freshman Daniel Garner, senior Brett Pirtle) did their part as well, combining to go 6-for-12 with five runs, four RBIs and a double.
White drew first blood in the first when Rea came within inches of a grand slam to left field. With the bases juiced, Rea launched a ball deep into the Mississippi night. The ball fell to the ground just past the outstretched arm of Maroon's left fielder, allowing Henderson and Garner to score.
Leading 2-0, the home team broke it open with a four-run second. After a walk by freshman Dylan Ingram and a sacrifice bunt by freshman Gavin Collins, sophomore Jacob Robson hit an opposite field single to put runners on the corners. Next, Vickerson drove in Ingram with a groundout to second base. With Robson on second, Henderson hit a worm burner up the middle with an RBI single. Garner then hit a double down the line in left, allowing Henderson to tap the dish. Up 5-0, Pirtle finished off the scoring in the inning by plating Garner with an RBI single to right.
True freshman Reid Humphreys added to the lead in the third when he doubled down the right-field line and eventually scored on a Robson RBI base knock.
Trailing 7-0, Maroon attempted to come back in the fourth when senior Alex Detz scored on an RBI base hit to right field by true freshman Brent Rooker. The visitors added two more in the six when junior Seth Heck scored on a RBI single by redshirt freshman Zack Randolph and Detz crossed home for the second time with an infield single by sophomore Kyle Hann.
The final run of the game occurred in the sixth when Henderson scored on a single by Rea.

Through four decades, rugby showcase hasn't changed much
Published: Thursday, July 3, 2014 at 5:12 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, July 3, 2014 at 5:12 p.m.
Independence Day celebrations are American as apple pie and obnoxiously donning red, white and blue clothing.
Want to Go?
What: 40th Annual Cape Fear Sevens Rugby Tournament
Where: Ogden Park, 1/2 mile north of Gordon Road off Market Street
When: Saturday-Sunday, 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
What else: Admission is free. Five divisions will compete at this year's event, three for men and two for women.
People across the country will cook out, watch fireworks and hit the beach this weekend if they're fortunate enough to avoid rains from Hurricane Arthur, but Wilmington has its own long-lasting tradition: rugby.
This weekend will mark the 40th annual Cape Fear Sevens Rugby Tournament, and teams from the east coast to California and Ohio will fill Ogden Park on Saturday and Sunday.
Tournament director Ray Funderburk said about 60 teams have registered for the tournament, on par with recent years, though the number of women teams has increased.
"One of the things that helps us and hurts us is it's a holiday weekend – one where people are coming to the beach anyway," Funderburk said. "People come down for the competition, you can't watch good rugby on TV in this country. A lot of these people come not only to play but because they're going to make up most of the crowd."
There are three divisions for men (premier, club/college and social) as well as two for women (premier and social. The two days of competition are unique, as most sevens tournaments are a one-day affair. With up to 102 games – each featuring a pair of seven-minute halves with a one-minute halftime – scheduled for Saturday before playing for championships Sunday, many new teams make the trek to Wilmington.
Jason Gruner, who is on the Cape Fear Gold roster in the club division, is preparing for his ninth year playing in the tournament.
"We've done all three levels, but this year we're doing to the club," Gruner said. "The folks we've got on our squad are young – we don't have a whole lot of experience we're working with so the second tier is kind of a good fit for us."
Gruner and his teammates have played four tournaments together in preparation of this weekend and have set a roster of 12 players to have multiple lineups of seven players.
Although his goal is to ultimately win a title, Gruner said one of the biggest draws is seeing the top level of competition from the premier teams. Funderbunk said teams in the lower two divisions normally compose the majority of crowds at premier matches.
"It's fun to see the same faces that come back every year, as well as the new faces that show up," Gruner said. "To see some guys compete in the same sport we do in the highest level, in our own backyard, is attractive."
With rugby sevens debuting as an Olympic sport in 2016, Funderbunk said he not only expects some tournament alumni to participate in the Olympics, but also to see the interest level expand when it's seen on a worldwide level.
For now, he's anxious for the "three-ring circus" the milestone anniversary will bring.
"We've got five fields and three games an hour on a field," Funderbunk said. "So if one game's bad, wait around for a little while and the next one may be better. That's the good spectator aspect of it."
