Apostle Donovan Lobban
Ministerial, entrepreneur, business visionary and spiritual leader in and around his community, Apostle Donovan Lobban is the Pastor and Founder of The Greater Bethlehem Ministry ("TGBM") since its conception in 1998. A community Church in Scarborough, ON worshipping at the Delta Toronto East Hotel, located at 2035 Kennedy Rd. North.
Apostle Lobban was born in Jamaica to Jamaican parents, who instilled in him from an early age the importance and power of serving the Lord. Though he is coming from humble beginnings, he has over the years developed into a profound and dynamic speaker for the Lord. Through his community work, many speaking engagements and conferences, Apostle Lobban has been able to motivate and inspire all those he comes in contact with. Driven by his love and passion for the Lord, his caring and compassionate spirit has also enabled him to be a tower of strength to many. These attributes are also borne out in his missionary activities ministering to the homeless, in prisons and working with other missionary organizations. His humility and passion for Christ has been the force that has him in this mission in winning others for Christ. This has garnered him to be a spiritual source to others.
Truly, a man that is ordained and sent by God to preach the Gospel to those that are bound, bruised and afflicted by the enemy. Apostle Lobban is a man on a MISSION. As declared by the Apostle Paul in Ephesians 6:11:
"…put on the whole armour of God…"
This verse has quickly become a mantra in this man of God's life as he continues to profess the Gospel, winning souls for Christ and continue to walk steadily in the Lord.

To Kill a Mockingbird
by Harper Lee
To Kill a Mockingbird Chapter 11 Summary
- Now that Scout's a grown-up second-grader, tormenting Boo Radley seems like little kid stuff. She's setting her sights beyond the neighborhood to the metropolis of downtown Maycomb.
- Getting downtown, however, requires getting past the house of Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose.
- The old woman hurls insults at them every time they pass her house, no matter how nice they are to her.
- But Atticus makes polite conversation with Mrs. Dubose, so Scout think he's incredibly brave.
- The day after Jem turns twelve, he's got a load of birthday cash to spend. They head down to town for him to lighten his pockets.
- On the list of purchases: a toy steam engine for Jem and a baton for Scout.
- As they pass Mrs. Dubose, she accuses them of playing hooky, even though it's Saturday.
- Jem and Scout can put up with that, but when she attacks their father for defending Tom Robinson, Scout has to drag Jem away.
- They make their purchases and head home, passing by Mrs. Dubose's house again.
- She's not on the front porch, and Jem snaps. He grabs Scout's new baton, and uses it to destroy Mrs. Dubose's camellias, finally breaking the baton over his knee.
- Atticus comes home, and he's not happy.
- He tells his son that no matter what she said, those poor flowers never did anyone any harm, and Jem needs to go apologize—right now.
- Meanwhile, Scout finally speaks her mind. No, her dad says, it's not fair. But things are only going to get worse as the Tom Robinson case gets closer.
- When they're older, they'll understand why he's doing what he's doing.
- But isn't Atticus wrong, because most of the townspeople think he is?
- Nope, Atticus says. Personal conscience isn't a democracy.
- Finally, Jem's back. He cleaned up the yard and apologized (even though he didn't mean it), and now Mrs. Dubose wants him to come over every day except Sunday to read to her.
- Atticus says he has to do it. There's no point in apologizing unless it's sincere. As a sick old lady Mrs. Dubose can't be held responsible for her actions.
- Atticus is a lot more forgiving then we are.
- Anyway, Jem heads over to Mrs. Dubose's house for his first round of reading. Scout goes with him.
- They find her in bed, and she gets in a few sharp words before Jem starts reading.
- Her face is disgusting—wrinkled, spotty, toothless, and drooling—so Scout tries to find something else to look at.
- After a while, the kids notice that Mrs. Dubose's frequent corrections of his mistakes had dropped off, and she doesn't even notice when he stops mid-sentence.
- Huh. She appears to be in some sort of fit. The kids ask if she's all right, but she doesn't answer.
- Then an alarm clock goes off, and Mrs. Dubose's servant Jessie shoos them out of the house, saying it's time for Mrs. Dubose's medicine.
- Reading to Mrs. Dubose becomes part of their daily schedule.
- One evening Scout asks Atticus what exactly a "nigger-lover" (11.100) is, since that's what Mrs. Dubose frequently calls him, and it's also what Francis said.
- Is that why she jumped Francis? Yes.
- Atticus asks why Scout's asking for a definition if she understood it well enough to make it the reason for a fight, and Scout says that it was the way Francis said it that got on her nerves.
- Atticus tells her that the term doesn't mean anything, but it's something "ignorant, trashy people use […] when they think somebody's favoring Negroes over and above themselves" (11.107), and that even higher-class people use it sometimes when they want to put someone down.
- It's not actually an insult; it just shows you how "poor" (11.109) the person using it is.
- One afternoon while Jem is plugging away at reading aloud to Mrs. Dubose, Atticus surprises them by coming in.
- It turns out he's just left work—Mrs. Dubose has been setting the alarm clock later and later each day, so Jem and Scout have been staying longer and longer without realizing it.
- Mrs. Dubose says that Jem has to come for a week longer, even though the original month is up, and Atticus says he has to do it.
- Finally the last day of reading is over. Hooray! Now Jem can turn to more important things, like college football.
- One evening, Mrs. Dubose dies. Atticus comes home with a box and an explanation: Mrs. Dubose was a morphine addict and wanted to kick the habit before she died as a matter of personal pride.
- Her fits were caused by withdrawal, and the reading helped keep her mind off the cravings till the alarm clock went off and she could have a dose (which also explains why the reading periods got longer and longer).
- By the end of the reading afternoons, she was free of the drug habit.
- The box Atticus brought home is for Jem. When he opens it he finds a camellia.
- Jem is angry at this needling from beyond the grave, but Atticus tells him that he thinks it's a message that everything's all right.
- If Jem hadn't gone on an anti-camellia rampage, Atticus might have made his son go read to Mrs. Dubose anyway, in order "to see what real courage is" (11.153)—not using a gun, but fighting for a cause you believe in even if you know you probably won't win.

A couple weeks ago, we teamed up with Rebecca Minkoff for #featuremybag and #featuremyshoes. Instead of the typical Amazon giftcard we giveaway, the winner would receive a bag and a new pair of shoes from RM. The entries flooded in and we had a really hard time choosing our favorite photos (which is why we are announcing so late). But we did not forget and now we have decided on the winners!
We decided on @allprettypetite's photo in which fashion meets arts. We love how her zebra print Christian Louboutin wedges have been made into part of the artistic shot including pictures, frames, and books. Click to see the runners up!

I have just purchased three Windows 7 Professional Dell 64-bit PCs for testing prior to upgrading our company's 120+ PCs from Windows XP Professional.
The setup is a standard domain with a Windows Server 2003 32-bit server.
We name each PC XP1 to XP150 so that when users join or leave, I don't have to rename the PC.
We use the Description field to allocate the user's name to each PC.
We also have a share set up on each PC using the user's name.
When I browse the network using Windows Explorer in XP, I get a useful display.
The left pane showing the PC number and the right pane showing NAME and COMMENTS
So, for example I would see:
XP01 Fred Bloggs
(Each PC on a new row.)
The right pane is my main tool for administering the network.
I can easily see the PC number and the name of the user.
However, in Windows 7, this seems to have been thrown out of the window and replaced with fields that I do not need and in my case always display the same info.
"Name", "Category", "Workgroup", "Network Location"
In my case the Name column gives the PC number (XP10) etc and all three other columns display identical useless information.
So I can't see who is using XP10.
When I am in "help desk" mode, I would naturally ask the user's name and use my remote desktop client to view their screen.
The user isn't aware of their PC name, so I am finding it impossible to match the user name with a PC number.
Any ideas how to overcome this "by design" change to Windows 7?

A couple of months ago, I did some speculating in my monthly column for Jancis Robinson about what would happen in Napa now that the reins for reviewing the region have been handed from Robert Parker to Antonio Galloni. The fact that Galloni's scores for Napa have just come out wouldn't ordinarily merit much attention from me, except that in my article I made some predictions about what might change as a result. My prediction was: nothing.
And it turns out that's pretty much what happened.
To save you, and anyone else insane enough to waste a few hours of their time, the trouble, I cross-analyzed Parker's most recent scores in Napa with Galloni's first scores for the region that were released on Friday in Issue #198 of the Wine Advocate.
Anyone who was hoping the traditional order would be upset, or that all the cult wines so long vaunted by Parker would be knocked off their pedestals will be sorely disappointed.
Galloni's scores match Parkers with an almost scary precision, except for the fact that Galloni seems to be a tougher grader. 98 is the new 100, so to speak. If Parker gave a wine a 98, Galloni gives the same wine a 96, and so on down the ladder. Last time Parker came through Napa he handed out seven 100-point scores for 2007 and 2008 vintage wines. Galloni offered six scores of 98, with two of those being for barrel samples scored with a 97-99 point range.
I could list for you the top wines that each scored, but the list is essentially the same, with mostly the same names jockeying for position amongst the top thirty or forty wines.
Perhaps the one exception in the top scoring wines were those from Dunn Vineyards, which have generally been languishing (if one might call it that) in the low 90s according to Parker's last round of scores (he seems to have stopped tasting the wines after the 2004 vintage, to which he gave a 94+, his highest score since the early 00's). Galloni clearly fell in love with Randy Dunn's wines during his most recent trip, scoring most over 95 points and giving the 2008 his highest score awarded in the valley (98+).
There are a scarce few deviations in opinion between Parker and Galloni. I had to look very hard to find them. In fact, I could only find two instances (apart from the level of praise leveled at the Dunn above) where Parker and Galloni's opinions seemed to differ sharply over a wine or a producer as a whole. One was the 2009 Forman Cabernet Sauvignon which Parker thought was a very good effort (89-91) and which Galloni thought was exceptional (96+). The second was the 2009 Maybach Amouenus, which Parker loved (96-98) and Galloni thought was very good, but not fantastic (91).
Those were the only two points of real disagreement that I could tell from the scores available to me. I should note that because the Wine Advocate almost never publishes scores below 85 points, there may be wines that Galloni rated less than 85 points that Parker rated higher, and vice versa. There were certainly wines that appeared in the Wine Advocate for the first time via Galloni's reports, and others which have been there in the past that did not appear (Blackbird wines were noticeably absent from Galloni's report, for instance).
So there you have it. Galloni's palate does not appear to be reshaping the landscape of Napa, except to say that he may be making the 100 point score something more of an elusive achievement than his predecessor.
There are those, however, that believe this lack of 100 point scores may, in fact, have a more profound effect on the marketplace than you might think. Spend only a little time poking around in the secondary market for Napa cult wines (people re-selling bottles they have purchased directly from the producer) and you'll see that wines with 100 points from both the Wine Advocate and the Wine Spectator sell for significant markups. When wines have only a single 100 point score, they tend to sell for less.
By refusing to hand out 100 point scores (at least in his first go-round) Galloni may be knocking down the prices of these wines on the secondary market a bit. So who cares if Schrader Cellars Cabernet sells for $700 a bottle instead of $1200? Maybe no one. But more than one Napa winemaker has suggested to me that these secondary market prices certainly help justify the very high release prices (the prices that mailing list customers pay) of Napa's highest scoring wineries. The intimation being that should these secondary market prices fall in any real way, there might be some sort of consumer backlash against paying a winery $700 for a bottle that you can only resell for $750.
For my part, I think the law of supply and demand will weigh more heavily on Napa's wine prices than the residual effects of a dampening secondary market price. A lot of people love these wines, and a lot more people want to own them than are able, given their production levels.
Now it's just back to business as usual in Napa.

Ever since we figured out the fermentation trick, we humans have grown a lot of grapes. Frankly we've lugged clippings and seedlings and grafts to some of the most unlikely places in the world. It seems like throughout history, we've tried to grow grapes pretty much anywhere we've set down our own roots. The results: a lot of bad wine. There are a lot of vines planted where they shouldn't be. But don't try telling that to the folks that put them there. Once upon a time, when the choice was between some wine (no matter how bad) and no wine, the grapes got planted.
Once in a while, though, through either our own dumb luck, or through some early viticultural genius (we'll never truly know) we've found some places that were just meant to grow grapes.
I'm not talking at the level of appellations here. Sure, Napa is a fine place, in general for growing grapes, but there's a lot of mediocre land in those tens of thousands of acres. No, I'm speaking about individual plots of land - single contiguous vineyards that have for so long produced wines of such distinction it's hard to imagine the world of wine without them.
The Brand vineyard in Alsace is, in my mind, clearly one of these sites. This vineyard sits in a steep south and southeast facing bowl near the entrance to the Munster valley, with views of the town of Turkheim. At its highest point it sits about 345 meters above sea level, which means that despite the sunny exposure afforded by its southern exposure, it receives cool breezes, a combination which makes for long, slow ripening. The soil of the vineyard is basically crushed granite -- mica, quartz sand, hornblende, feldspar -- with little capacity to retain water, providing the vines with excellent drainage.
Grapes have been grown in this specific vineyard site pretty much continuously since Roman times, but not many records stretch baj that far. Like most of the records for winemaking in continental Europe, mentions of the Brand vineyard begin to surface in the early 14th century in records kept by the monasteries and abbeys in the region. Local legend has it that at one point the whole region was underwater and the hilltop above the Brand vineyard was merely an island. According to the story, upon this island a dragon came to rest, and was burned (brand literally means 'burned' in German) by the sun, and never regained the strength to fly onward, its blood draining into the rocks and soil and providing a fire which still lives in the vines grown here.
Today this vineyard is one of the few in the Alsace region to be given the Grand Cru designation, and pretty much every wine I've had from it demonstrates how awesome it is.
Phillipe and Corrine Ehrhart's small estate, Domaine Erhart, is in the town of Wettolshiem which snuggles up against the back of the Brand vineyard, along with several other of the equally famous vineyards of the area (Hengst and Herrenweg being a couple of my other favorites).
The Ehrharts have been working with the grapes from these vineyards for decades, and moreover, have been doing so organically for nearly two generations. Because of the very particular personality of these vineyard sites like Brand, they vinify each block of the vineyard separately.
This particular wine is made from 100% Pinot Gris from the Brand vineyard (which also is planted with Gewurztraminer, Riesling, Pinot Blanc and likely some Sylvaner and Muscat). All of the grapes are hand picked in several passes through the vineyard by mostly members of the Erhart family, including Philippe's father François, and his son Florian. After pressing, the wine is gravity fed (no pumping) into stainless steel vats where the wine will ferment, and is then drained into old, neutral oak where it will sit on its lees for up to seven or eight months before bottling.
Tasting Notes:
A pale gold color in the glass this wine has an highly perfumed nose of candied ginger, dried mango, and ripe -- even overripe -- nectarines. In the mouth it is silky and lush with flavors of nectarines, orange blossom water, and candied lemon. The wine has good acidity and is slightly off dry with a light sweetness that lingers in the long finish.
Food Pairing:
Honestly, I'd love nothing more than to just sit and sip this wine on its own with very little else. However, those who are interested in matching food to it will find it a ready match for non-spicy or mildly-spicy Asian fare, like this grilled five spice chicken.
Overall score: 9.5
How Much?: $27

Has anyone had experience using VMs as remote desktops for public access terminals (e.g. an internet cafe)
In our case we don't want to charge money for access but I figure this solution has a few advantages, such as:
- can easily re-build VMs daily, erasing private data and clutter
- can use rickety old PCs for the 'dumb' terminals
- less IT support needed on site
Can you suggest tools to help do this? Keeping the terminals up and running as much of the time as possible is the main priority, so they need to boot straight into full screen remote desktop and stay there.

Taking down visiting Peñasco by six and then pushing Wingate in a five-point loss on the road, the West Las Vegas boys' basketball team has officially opened the Ernie Rodriguez Era with a promising start.
The Dons' debut under their new head coach came Wednesday evening as they beat Peñasco 64-58 at Gillie Lopez Gym.
Jordan Lopez led West with 21 points.
Lopez's steal and subsequent layup, followed by a defensive stop and a free throw by Benny Salinas capped a 7-0 start to the game for WLV.
Black Friday was followed by Red-and-Gold Saturday, and there were no good deals to be had for the West Las Vegas girls' basketball team.
Visiting Española Valley, a 64-28 winner, outworked the Lady Dons on rebounding and defense and had little trouble in an early-season blowout at Gillie Lopez Gym.
Marcus Williams led all players with 21 points, and three teammates also scored in double figures but New Mexico Highlands lost a 104-98 shootout with Eastern New Mexico this past Wednesday night on a neutral court in Santa Rosa.
Highlands battled back after falling behind by as much as 13 points — 79-66 at the eight-minute mark in the second half — but never got over the hump.
NMHU (1-2) opens its Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference schedule with Metro State this Friday in Denver.
A late touchdown lifted the Santa Rosa Lions to a 21-14 victory over Eunice in the Class 2A state championship football game Saturday in Santa Rosa.
Eunice, seeded No. 1, had routed Tucumcari 49-20 and beat Tularosa 20-13 to reach the final. The third-seeded Lions made it by shutting out Loving 49-0 and then roaring past No. 2 Texico 48-13 last week.
Meanwhile, in Class 3A, a pair of defense-oriented semifinals took place Saturday, setting up a St. Michael's-Lovington showdown for the title.
If you happen to be interested in helping guide and govern La Plaza Little League this coming spring and summer, you have the opportunity to step up to the proverbial plate.
La Plaza is scheduling board elections for 4 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 11, at the league concession stand at Rodriguez Park. All positions are open for elections.
The board elections had originally been scheduled in November, but the outgoing board opted to reschedule and re-advertise the meeting to allow for more potential participation.

New Mexico Highlands sophomore Robert Rockhill went 3-2 and took fourth place in the heavyweight division, highlighting the Cowboy wrestling team's effort at the Nebraska-Kearney Holiday Inn Open on Nov. 19.
Freshman 133-pounder Tre Humphrey compiled a 4-2 mark and pinned two opponents. He is 6-4 overall this season, including the opener at Oklahoma City.
In the third-place match, Rockhill lost to Joe Alston of tourney host UNK via fall at the 3:54 mark.
Finally, the Las Vegas Xplosion softball team has an offseason.
The squad finished its extended run by winning its third consecutive U.S. Slowpitch Softball Association tournament, the Rio Rancho Invitational, last month.
"It has been not only a toll on the girls and coaches but for the parents also," said coach Michael Quintana. "It takes a lot of commitment and financial doing to support the girls in something they love."
Quintana said several girls had particularly strong efforts.
In the first game of the 2011-12 season, the West Las Vegas girls' basketball team made quick work of visiting Capital, 55-20, on Tuesday night at the Gillie Lopez Gym.
West coach Jose Medina stifled the Lady Jaguars with a couple of defenses and unleashed a three-quarter-court press early, producing turnovers. West had its own turnover issues early, and neither side had a field goal until Capital's Selene Gonzales' bucket with 2:46 left in the first.

Playing Your mp3s with Songbird

Songbird is the open source equivalent to iTunes. It's built on top of Mozilla, giving it the same extendability as Firefox. However, OpenSolaris doesn't ship with an mp3 codec, so before you can enjoy your music with Songbird, you first need to solve the missing codec problem. In this blog entry I'll walk you through both steps.
The folks at Fluendo are one of the key contributors to the GStreamer open source multimedia framework. One of the products they "sell for free" is the Fluendo MP3 Decoder. I use the term "sell for free" because to get the decoder, you need to register with the Fluendo Web Shop, add the mp3 decoder to your cart and work through the checkout process.When you get to the Download page, click the mp3 icon in the center to download the codec:
When you make your way to the download page, get the package for Solaris i386 and save the decoder to your Desktop. The list isn't long, but in the screen capture below I've filtered it for i386 archictures:
Now open a terminal and unzip the archive:
bunzip2 Desktop/fluendo-mp3-4.solaris-intel.tar.bz2
Then extract the archive:
tar -xf Desktop/fluendo-mp3-4.solaris-intel.tar -C Desktop/
Copy the mp3 codec to the GStreamer plugins directory:
pfexec cp Desktop/codecs/libgstflump3dec.so /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/Then run the gst-inspect utility to verify the installation:
bleonard@opensolaris:~$ gst-inspect flump3dec Factory Details: Long name: Fluendo MP3 Decoder (C build) Class: Codec/Decoder/Audio Description: Decodes MPEG-1 Layer 1, 2 and 3 streams to raw audio frames Author(s): Fluendo Support
Rank: primary (256) Plugin Details: Name: flump3dec Description: Fluendo MP3 decoder Filename: /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstflump3dec.so Version: 0.10.8 License: unknown Source module: gst-fluendo-mp3 Binary package: Fluendo MP3 Decoder Origin URL: http://www.fluendo.com ...
As of OpenSolaris 2008.11, Songbird is available in the IPS repository:
bleonard@opensolaris:~$ pfexec pkg install SUNWsongbird DOWNLOAD PKGS FILES XFER (MB) Completed 1/1 504/504 21.55/21.55 PHASE ACTIONS Install Phase 601/601 PHASE ITEMS Reading Existing Index 9/9 Indexing Packages 1/1
After the installation, you will now find Songbird under the Sound & Video Applications menu:
Start Songbird and enjoy.

View Full Version :
Randalls ad June 15-21st
be patient, I can't get the ad reader to work
Kind of a slow week.....
The one deal I see(borrowed from my blog, sorry)
WOW! Randall's has it going on if you are still in need of cereal! Especially if you want to catch a flick at the theatre too!. There are so many ways to run this promotion, so hopefully I can explain it to its full potential and you can mix and match to your liking!
Obviously the cheapest way to do this is going to be buying ONLY Rice Krispies (because they are the only cereal that is participating in all 3 parts of this deal)
BUT, seriously, I personally do not want THAT many boxes of Rice Krispies.
So, here are the offers and my suggestions:
Offer #1: Randalls is giving you a catalina coupon for a free movie ticket, up to $12 when you purchase 5 Kellogg's cereals in a single transaction (limit 1 per transaction)
Offer #2: Specially marked boxes of cereal have Cars2 codes inside which can be input on this website (http://www.kelloggs.com/cars2)for a selection of rewards (including a $5 prepaid debit card or $5 in concession cash- an evoucher for 4 codes, limit 30 codes PER PERSON)
Offer #3: There is a $10 rebate form here (http://www2.kelloggs.com/AARP/rewards/FIMSingle.pdf)for 10 UPC's from select Kellogg's cereal (Rice Krispies is the only one that is on sale, has the Car 2 code and is on this rebate form, Crispix is also on the form, but they are $1 more in store, limit 5 rebates per household)
Ok, the Rice Krispies, Corn Pops, Apple Jacks and Froot Loops are on sale for $2.49 each. Purchasing 5 in a single transaction, will net you a free movie ticket catalina (pictured in front) and 5 codes to the Cars 2 promotion, so basically a $5 gas card, and a spare code. I chose to mix and match with cereals I had printable coupons for, found here (http://lm.logicalmedia.com/z/23242/CD4594/).
I plan on purchasing 20 boxes of cereal in 4 transactions of 5 each. I hope to make 10 of those Rice Krispie treats, so I will qualify for 1 $10 rebate, 5 $5 rebates and have 4 movie tickets.
Here is how my total should look:
20 boxes of cereal @ 2.49 each = $49.80
-1/2 Rice Krispie printable (http://lm.logicalmedia.com/z/23242/CD4594/)
-$1/2 Frosted Flakes
-.70 Corn Pops (at least 2 of each coupon, more if I print from multiple computers)
-10 rebate
-25 (5 $5 rebates)
=$9.40 total for
20 boxes of cereal and 4 movie tickets!
If I print from 2 computers, I could save an additional $5.40 making my total just $4!!!!!!
If I just purchased Rice Krispies, my cost would be .80 with 1 computer or a profit of $4.60 with 2 (I would get an extra $10 rebate, making up the difference)
Also, in my pic, you will notice a coupon for $1 off fruit wyb 2 boxes of cereal. If I choose not to print coupons from my second computer, I can use 2 of these each time to get myself some cheap produce. Combine that with the $1/5 store coupons I keep finding at the front of the store, and I will really be doing well :)

Unlocking and jailbreaking are now legal in the US
Jailbreaking iPhones and unlocking phones in general have traditionally been activities that were, legally, in at least a grey area.
In fact, the opponents of such practices have long claimed that doing these procedures was a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), and thus illegal. The DMCA did not allow for "Circumvention of Copyright Protection Systems", which is the section that such procedures fall under.
Until now. The Librarian of Congress has revised the DMCA and the changes are very good news for phone owners, and rather bad news for the likes of Apple.
Let's take them one by one.
In the case of jailbreaking, the objections that Apple had were related to its need to preserve the iOS ecosystem. The Register of Copyrights, however, concluded that since you have to have bought an iPhone in order to engage in jailbreaking, there is absolutely no risk that it would affect sales of the devices. In fact, this is a classic fair use case, and Apple is only concerned about its reputation, not lost sales. Apple claim that these activities harm the integrity of the iPhone ecosystem, and while that may be true, apparently it has nothing to do with copyright.
Apple's other objection, that jailbreakers use Apple code, was also thrown out. It turns out that fewer than 50 bytes of code are used, out of a total of 8 million bytes of code, or approximately 1/160,000 of the copyrighted work as a whole.
So, from now on, jailbreaking is legal and a matter of fair use.
What is unknown at this point is if Apple and AT&T will be forced to accept warranty repair claims from people with jailbroken iPhones, but if that isn't happening today, it surely doesn't seem impossible in theory.
Next up, unlocking a phone is also legal now.
Unlocking is the procedure which aims to make the device usable on a carrier other than the one it was purchased from (and locked to).
This mainly applies to GSM-based networks, like AT&T and T-Mobile, where the use of SIM cards makes switching carriers and the unlocking procedure easier. In theory, this could also be applied to CDMA unlocking (for networks such as Verizon and Sprint), but it might be a bit trickier in practice. Because CDMA phones don't use interchangeable SIM cards, the phone is practically 'hardwired' to the provider who sells them. To unlock a CDMA phone, some reprogramming is usually needed, and the carriers do not, as a rule, accept phones that they haven't sold to run on their network. Which is a problem, because according to the DMCA changes regarding unlocking, the carrier that you want to switch to has to authorize your device for use on the network.
Be that as it may, this is very good news for mobile phone users and might unleash many more interesting tools on the jailbreaking and unlocking fronts. Hopefully the developers of such tools will have nothing left to fear and will therefore create better procedures and faster updates.

Michele A. Boone, PT, NHA of Columbia County started her career as a physical therapist in 1984 after graduating from the University of Scranton. In 1986, she opened her own physical therapy company, Valley Rehabilitation, specializing in providing rehabilitation services to residents in long-term care facilities and helping them to enjoy a better quality of life. That same year she became licensed as a Nursing Home Administrator. Years later, Michele expanded on her passion for helping the residents of long-term care facilities by becoming the Nursing Home Administrator for her family's business, Grandview Health Homes, Inc.
Michele grew up surrounded by the business after her parents bought a 15-bed nursing home facility when she was a young child. Michele's fondest memories were of spending her holidays, birthdays and special occasions with the residents of the nursing home that she considered part of her own family. She developed a fondness for the many residents she called friends and decided that she wanted to give back and could do so through her work at Grandview.
Michele now spends her days running the Grandview business, along with her brother Michael, and helping to provide an environment for the residents and their families that they can proudly call home. She oversees a staff and helps to assure that residents are provided the highest quality of care in a safe, comfortable environment. Michele believes that these residents have taught her and her generation so much that it is important to give back just as much to them.
In addition to Grandview, Michele still provides physical, occupational and speech therapy services through Valley Rehabilitation, only now to younger children in school districts as well as long-term care facilities.
Michele is a member of the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) and the Pennsylvania Department of Directors of Nursing Administrators (PADONA). In her free time, she loves the outdoors and enjoys camping, mountain biking and traveling. Michele resides in Stillwater, Columbia County.
An updated version of the state's Health and Human Services Resource Guide is now online at www.health.state.pa.us under the Quick Links tab.

preliminary darcs implementation
Justus Pendleton <justus@...>
I have a first pass at letting trac talk to darcs repositories. It isn't complete but seems to work for what I've done. I've added infrastructure so that other systems -- monotone, arch -- could conceivably be used as well, but I haven't bothered with the backends for those. Having trac use multiple repositories shouldn't be too hard, either. For those who want to take a look, the darcs repository of my changes is available at http://www.ryoohki.net/~justus/trac and I have a tracd running at http://www.ryoohki.net:8080 against a darcs repository. What works: - the Timeline view - the Changeset view, although I haven't added in diffs yet - the Browser view, but only for "head" and it is pretty slow right now - tracd - all of the stuff that didn't talk to subversion directly: Wiki, Tickets, and Roadmap - subversion access still works What doesn't work: - trac-admin. to create a darcs repository you need to set up an env by hand What I've done is create a new package trac.repository that has a factory method. Each backend has its own class and needs to support the API that is loosely documented in Repository.py. So I ripped out all of the svn specific stuff and put it in trac/repository/Subversion.py, trying to clean up the interfaces a little bit but generally leaving the code as it was. There is also a new configuration option "repository" which has the format repository = TYPE LOCATION(Continue reading)

Keystone Resort announced today the Big Mountain Enduro mountain bike competition, July 12-13, where world-class bikers participate in an epic trail ride that tests endurance, technical skills and guts.
Part of the 2014 North American Enduro Tour, the stop at Keystone will showcase two days of physically enduring cross-country riding and technical downhill mountain bike racing across the resort's mountain bike park.
Designed to bring together the continent's best mountain bike athletes with a multi-day, multi-stage tour that tests not only the physically fit mountain bike athlete, but also the technically skilled, the Tour aims to crown the best all-around mountain bike athlete.
At Keystone, the stop will consist of both high altitude grueling single track and technical downhill mountain bike racing featuring intense drops, rock gardens and steep terrain. Beginning at 10 a.m. both days also include a vendor village and live music with DJ DC.
For those who want to enjoy viewing the weekend's events but also wish to partake in a little adventure of their own, Keystone offers a range of activities, including mountain-top yoga, two-championship golf courses, a recreation path for road biking, running or walking, stand up paddle boarding on the resort's five-acre lake, après decks with a view and several dining options.
The Keystone Bike Park will be closed during the competition, but open to the public 5-7 p.m. both Saturday and Sunday of the race weekend. Non-competition riders can use the park's 100 miles of singletrack across 55 trails with 2,360 feet of vertical drop this weekend as well as throughout the rest of the summer until the resort's closing bike park date of Sept. 14.
Keystone is also offering the Choose Your Own Adventure package where you can choose from a wide range of lodging options while saving up to 36% off. Plus, the package includes a selection of à la carte activity options.

When posting payment via F-28 we are getting currency gain/lost in group currency. The transaction and local currency are CLP. We are selling and receiving payment in CLP. Our group currency is USD. We are wanting to not see a currency gain/lost in USD when receiving payment. We would like the system to use the CLP:USD exchange rate in place at the time of the sale when we post the payment. Does any one have any advice on how to have the system to not calculate a currency gain/lost in group currency when document currency and local currency are the same AS the currency used for the sales and cash payment?
I have an query. Normally we will use the group currency for reporting at the Company level. So the gain/ loss for USD should have impact at CCo level. And practically fromt eh business point of view, it seems to be correct to valuate your payments or receipts when you actually book them. Doesn't it?

Fine Antique Scottish Agate Pin

Guest Book
Extremely rare Scottish agate brooch, circa 1860-1880. This brooch set in sterling, has finely inlaid agates set invisibly one to the other. The colors meld so perfectly that the eye catches the subtle play of color uninterrupted by any adornments. The striping is created by several pieces of agates placed together, seamlessly forming a pattern. What is also distinctive, is the central sterling silver cross, the Cross of St. Andrew. It is as subtle as the beautiful colors of the agates. The top and bottom sections have a heart, also subtle and symbolic. This type of work is the most refined and would have required the finest skills of a lapidary.
It is large, measuring 2 1/2 inches across X 1 5/8 down. All the agates are in fine condition and original. The reverse shows some dings in the silver,and an early repair to the pin stem. The pin stem could be replaced if desired aesthetically, but is perfectly secure. The top circle on the reverse is where a small silver O ring would have been present to attach a safety chain. This is an art form, quite rare and expertly executed. The geometry and the design has created a remarkably modern appearance. The beauty is created not by engraving or gemstones, but by the restraint of the design and the choice of agates. Distinctively Scottish, circa 1860.

I'll be unavailable for the next 30 days, seeking treatment for my eating disorder ... to learn to love myself again, exactly as I am"
Ke$ha's real name is Kesha Rose Sebert. She has brought fans to the dance floor with hits like, "Timber" with Pitbull, "Crazy Love," and "Die Young."
MTV News reports that her trip to rehab comes just one month before she is scheduled to perform in Dubai as part of her Warrior tour. She is also set to perform shows in Hammond, Indiana, and Green Bay, Wisconsin in March and April.

Feedback Friday: The Perfect Cruise-Planning Tool Revealed
April 4, 2014 | By Brittany Chrusciel | No Comments
You've got questions, we've got answers. Every other Friday we will bring you a piece of reader feedback and our response. Have a question about cruising? Notice an error on our site? Want to just drop a comment for our consideration? Submit your own feedback by e-mailing email@example.com, and maybe we'll select your submission for our next Feedback Blog.
This Week's Feedback: This week we're addressing all of the emails we receive about itineraries, ports and general cruise planning. While we pride ourselves on being the leading website for cruise planning, some queries on specific sailings are so detailed, we need to look them up ourselves to make sure they're even possible!
For example, "I want a cruise that departs from New Orleans sailing to Cozumel, and then a separate sailing from Cozumel to Miami." With all the places that cruise ships go, we could dream up endless itineraries. Unfortunately, many of them aren't actually available. How do we know this? The Find a Cruise tool.
Our Response: You know the ports, the month, even your cruising style, but you're undecided on what line might be able to accommodate you. Time to turn to one of the handiest tools on our site, Find a Cruise. which allows you to enter in all of this information to find your perfect cruise vacation. Drop-down options include Destination, Cruise Line, To and From Dates, Cruise Length, Departure Port, Popular Ports, Ship and Cruise Style.
So whether you're planning a very specific trip, or just in the daydreaming phase, give Find a Cruise a whirl — you may find voyages you never even knew existed!

Sanders introduces 'too big to fail' billApril 10,2013
Sanders bill would
split too-big banks
WASHINGTON — Sen. Bernard Sanders, I-Vt., introduced legislation Tuesday to break up banks that have grown so big that the U.S. Justice Department fears the financial system would be put at risk if criminal charges were filed.
Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Calif., proposed a companion bill in the House.
Sanders said the 10 largest banks in the United States are bigger now than before a taxpayer bailout following the 2008 financial crisis.
Attorney General Eric Holder Jr. told the Senate Banking Committee last month that the Justice Department might not pursue criminal cases against big banks because filing charges could "have a negative impact on the national economy, perhaps even the world economy."
Sanders said, "We have a situation now where Wall Street banks are not only too big to fail, they are too big to jail."
Sherman added, "They claim; 'if we go down, the economy is going down with us,' but by breaking up these institutions long before they face a crisis, we ensure a healthy financial system where medium sized institutions can compete in the free market."
The Sanders and Sherman legislation would give the Treasury Department 90 days to identify commercial banks, investment banks, hedge funds and insurance companies whose "failure would have a catastrophic effect on the stability of either the financial system or the United States economy without substantial government assistance."MORE IN This Just InBARRE A local woman is dead following a house fire Friday night.

"Why Wood Creates An Artful Sport "
(One Fan's Perspective on Shifts in Tennis alongside Shifts in Cultural Landscapes)
It was the Age of the Wooden Racquet in a sport played by Champions wielding a staff made from materials far more organic and akin to natural elements, than metals and hard graphite composites. It was tennis played in its purest state; tennis as -perhaps- it was made to be; constructed so that a human being could run only-so-far on a court made to be exactly the size it is, based on the pace that could be generated from a wooden racquet from a swinging human arm and running human legs, in the building of a sport that would be characterized by royal elements.
Tennis is known as the "Sport of Kings" for the very reason that it transcends the natural animal order of "Might Makes Right" into the realm of our higher nature, where the prowess of the mind -with focus and strategic maneuvering- can outweigh the dynamics of pure power. With the advent of tennis, the one with the biggest gun had to now add thinking to their arsenal in order to win, and engage the opponent in a War of Spatial Conversations -as if "making a point"- rather than winning by gunfire alone. Brute force, without the grace and guidance of the mind, would not win a greater majority of the points. Placing wits above brawn, tennis distinguished itself through this elevation of character.
It was in just such a magical world, now seemingly innocent and quaint in comparison, that a Chris Evert stepped forward to take her place on the Tennis Throne, at just the time that the sport was transitioning into a world-wide pro ("Open-Era") big money attraction; an era known as the Tennis Boom. And she became the dominant force in the tennis world, alongside Bjorn Borg on the men's side. Both made their ascension with play of pinpoint accuracy, unflappable concentration in the face of the greatest test of nerves, and a calm excuseless demeanor that allowed fate to play its hand fully, unapologetic about results and the possibilities of failure, and the deepest commitment to fair play and sportsmanship. Because it would be more suitable to lose with dignity than win by any means beneath the best their character could summon.
[Chris with sister Jeanne Evert, 1972.]
The integrity of the sport and the sport's ability to discipline and refine its players (and better them as people by doing so) is dependent on the sport's inherent structural challenges remaining intact. While there is nothing meant to suggest that pro tennis need return to wood racquets, there are many issues well worth considering regarding the altering of the sport from its classic roots of play.
The smaller racquet head of wood forces the player to concentrate harder to hit the sweet spot. This isn't a DISADVANTAGE cured by the advent of mid and oversized racquets, but is a necessary test of a player's ability to maintain unbroken concentration against rising external pressures. That's essential to the discipline of the sport of tennis. Even a defining characteristic.
Adding unearned power, and making it easier to hit the ball by changing the materials and structural size of the racquet, cheats the players and audiences of the challenges presented by the sport of tennis as a discipline. It gives the illusion of improvement when the change in performance is more due to shifts in equipment, rather than enhanced skill levels.
Professional Baseball does not allow players to use aluminum bats or to use cork in their wooden bats, because - while it increases power - the American Professional Baseball Association saw rightly that everyone was hitting home-runs and that making it "easier" on everybody to gain "success" was actually hurting the sport. Because it was like cheating.
Meanwhile, the current group of top players is the first in history, on both the mens and womens side of the draw, to sometimes have over 30% of the top ten out for 6 months or more from injury. Tennis was always known as the 'sport for a lifetime' but the lack of regulation on the power of our equipment--as well as over-scheduling and a dramatic rise of hard court events, which should also possibly fall under the ITF's care and guidance--has allowed the strain on the body to place players in danger for both short and longterm injury. This, a sport historically closer to yoga and martial arts than today's version of the sport, exerts more pressure on the body than it appears to be made to handle.
The Establishment of Tennis has not taken steps to protect players and the sport's legacy, but has added to the dilemma by changing the construction of the ball so that it too would go even faster than it used to. In addition to the toll on the body, this boost cheats tennis of its thoughtful time-based character from the speeding up of the game. Time was built into the fabric of the game in order to allow for time to consider, to afford you the opportunity to change directions, to change the pace of your shot, or throw in a surprise drop shot. Time also allows for the possibility of having too much time to think, time to choke under pressure from the awareness of your match predicament, or the time to make a decision too late to change directions, and outwit yourself rather than your opponent. These elements still exist in the contemporary game but in greatly modified form.
Certainly current masters like Roger Federer, Guillermo Coria, and Justine Henin-Hardenne among others give great hope for the continual flourishing of true beauty and art in our sport. But being far and away exceptions to the trends of Velocity-oriented tennis, it may distract from the point that an overwhelming degree of top players do not share their variety, smarts, and expertise.
Bjorn Borg has proposed that, while club and amateur players go on hitting as they like, that the pros return to wood. John McEnroe has said it and written about it. If you're among the best players in the world, you should surely be able to focus on a smaller sweet spot, generate your own pace, and win by displaying subtlety and variety in shotmaking rather than bludgeoning your opponent with casts of steel. Martina Navratilova recently publically endorsed, at the least, lessening the width of racquets, also being sure to insist that the game itself not be changed to accomodate the development of these super-charged excalibers. "Something needs to be done about the racquets," says Navratilova. "The materials are ridiculous now. The game's too easy with these racquets."
The emphasis given by wood racquets to the elements of feel, touch, and control in tennis have likewise been "overruled" by the new power game and power establishment. Some people will say, "The equipment has improved. What can you do?"
But it is worth considering that perhaps the equipment hasn't "improved" if the effect of those changes is to bring the game down below its efficiency level to function as a sport not purely about results and winning, but about process and the disciplining and refining of the spirits of the players, and staying true to the soul of the game.
This shift in tennis can very much be seen as a matter of history repeating itself, and likewise a warning sign and mirror of the times.
For the Ancient Greeks, sport represented the embodiment of the Hero's Journey; a path of individual fulfillment, with sport as a spiritual discipline through which we humans could worship the Gods and Goddesses, who were seen as having an "active" physical presence. Sporting events surrounded the worship of the Gods and Goddesses - the Olympics, of course, developed at this time in history as a symbol of the human capacity to become as close as we could get to the Godhead of our own existence.
When the Romans conquered the Greeks, the focus of sport's nature changed drastically to worship, not of the Gods and Goddesses, but to worship the state of Rome. The essence of godliness was taken out, and sport instead was seen as the fulfillment of Rome's own practice of Conquest, with "Might Makes Right" as its central tenant. In this, the nature of competition was propelled away from Dignity, to Blood Sport, fighting to the death in a Symbol of Brutality and the Rise of Patriarchy.
And so it is in our world today, with the dominant rise of capitalism that demands to be held unaccountable and unquestioned. Faster pace and less nuance, more streamlining so there is no time to think and consider; gaining prize monies without concern for conduct befitting of a worthy champion, and making it into the winner's circle without necessarily caring by what means you get there.
It can't be said that no one has taken notice. At the 2003 Wimbledon Championships, an open letter was issued to the President of the ITF (International Tennis Federation) with leading players from the past such as John McEnroe, Pat Cash, Martina Navratilova, Boris Becker all signing it (Evert did not attend Wimbledon 2003), in which they claim that tennis has become too one-dimensional. They did suggest that the width of the tennis racquet should at least be reduced to remedy this and help challenge the effectiveness of the hard hitters. But it is also noteworthy that it was a letter signed only by past champions, and no current players. As Andy Roddick said upon hearing about the letter, "I'm not really sure what their, you know, concern is." And that's the problem: most current players, raised already on the power game without roots to the sport's past, really DON'T know.
Margaret Court also blames the failure to regulate racquet technology for the one-speed, one-style tennis of today on the ITF, saying, "They really should have done something about the racquets years ago." The official sport allowing all of these concessions to its professional players is clearly a major source of what may be perceived as a tennis-identity crisis, and it has put the full richness of the sport in jeopardy. Tennis is not here to make it easier on everyone to succeed any more than training wheels are put on bicycles to make more-balanced riders.
Yet tennis audiences, players, and officials seem to have resigned themselves to believing this direction of tennis is part of historical inevitability. They're shrugging their shoulders and slugging their groundstrokes, having become so addicted to the blurring pace of the game, but perhaps losing perspective, in the process, on the ideals upon which tennis was developed.
But some essential basic things should never change: I'll take Chrissie on a clay court with a wooden racquet over any player in today's Slugfest tennis world for all the marbles in the piggy bank.
Want to try your hand at playing with a wood racquet? Exquisite brand new wood racquets are available at http://www.woodtennis.com/newWood/newWood.html where Joe Schartman has a marvelous collection of artful, classic, and yes, Chris Evert original Wilson wood racquets. Pictured to the right are 3 signed racquets by Chris. But don't get any ideas. Joe says he's keeping 'em!

The players on the roster of the Los Angeles Clippers have found themselves in a bit of a bind lately as they are in the middle of a playoff series, but also dealing with the racist remarks allegedly attributed to their owner, Donald Sterling. Well, before game four against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday, April 27, 2014, they showed a protest by throwing their warm-ups on the floor and then turning their practice shirts inside-out, according to TMZ.
After the audio tapes allegedly of Sterling were released on Friday night, the team held a meeting to discuss how to handle the situation.
The tapes have a man's voice, which has been allegedly said to be Sterling, saying racist remarks against black people. One comment even has the man telling his girlfriend he doesn't want her to bring black people to his games.
With an investigation being done, the Clippers' players decided to send out a message of unity. They met at half court, took off their shooting shirts, and threw them all down on the floor.
From there, the protest continued as the Clippers turned the rest of their warm-up gear inside out and practiced before the game. They wanted to warm up in generic red shirts that showed no logos whatsoever.
Game five of the 2014 NBA Playoff series is set to take place on Tuesday in the Staples Center. It has already been predicted that there will be thousands of empty seats at the arena as many black fans are expected to stay away from the team and Sterling.

- Gearing yourself in Gold DKP runs, knowing that you have first dibs on anything that drops.
- Casually buying a rare super drop like deathbringer's will in said GDKP runs for 100k, and casually commenting that it's not a lot of gold.
- Having guildies, friends and competitors alike refering to you as "the Don"
- Receiving fan mails and whispers from strangers.
- Receiving hate mails and whispers from angry competitors.
- Being able to app to any guild on your server, and they already know who you are.
- Logging on to 'do the rounds', and people in trade chat are talking about you and your AH dominance.
- Chinese farmers look for YOU to sell you their herbs / ore. Not the other way around.
- Guildies and friends ask your permission before they post competing auctions.
- Whatever you say is absolute law regarding making gold. "Oh yeah, I made all my gold by spamming my "GOLD PLZ!!!!11" macro at the mailbox in Ironforge."

I think this entry brings up a few good ideas for the future...and ones we don't always talk about.
- What changes has wealth brought to you? This is primarily in the prestige of obtaining lots of wealth from frequenters of trade chat, and from guildies.
Many people have already add on the comments they receive from strangers or guildies. I am known as "the guild jew," eventhough I am not jewish. I'm also referred to if anyone needs a price quote or tip for making gold.
- What do you do with your wealth?
I like the comment about helping a guildie, or cheering up a friend with a new shiny. I make it my obligation to offer new 80s in the guild an introductory set of iLVL 200+ gear so they can jump directly into any heroic or Naxx.
Sometimes I literally try to give it away...most people don't take me up on my offer though. So I go out of my way to send our hunters stacks of arrows/bullets, or the officers who are cooks, stacks of meat for feasts.

Nice read Sovash, really made me laugh. And yeah, buying a Tundra Traveler on a level 40 on peak times on Dalaran was the best thing ever done, the whispers, oh god; both the whispers from strangers and from guildies, sooo funny how they go crazy.

Sugars have a long history of safe use in foods. Placed on the Food and Drug Administration's list of foods that are "generally recognized as safe" in 1958, sugars and the health aspects of sugar consumption continue to be evaluated. Recent research has focused on several potential sugars and health relationships, sugar consumption and nutritional quality of the diet, recommendations for sugars or added sugar intake, and the utility of the glycemic index and glycemic load. The data are not clear-cut, although experts generally agree that dietary guidance focusing on calorie control, without singling out one food or nutrient, is essential to addressing the prevalence of obesity.

Mechanical adjustments get Johnson, Bell back in sync
MIAMI Marlins pitchers Josh Johnson and Heath Bell sounded like NASCAR drivers talking about their cars after both overcame "mechanical" problems to contribute to Tuesday's victory against the Cubs.
Ball players often speak of themselves as machinery. When an injury persists, they sometimes have to "shut it down." If one's performance is off, it can take an adjustment to get back on track.
