Roelli Cheese Haus
Dunbarton BlueFourth generation cheesemaker Chris Roelli committed the equivalent of blue cheese heresy by piercing his cheese and then pressing it to inhibit the mold growth. The result is Dunbarton Blue, a sort of blue-veined cheddar that's potent yet approachable. In a typical blue, the pierce holes introduce air that allows the desirable mold to proliferate within the cheese. By pressing it, Chris halts the process, developing a distinct but subtle bluing that hints at piquancy without punching you in the face. A unique and fantastic cheese from a true American cheesemaking family. Read More

No way this can be a good thing.
Nope, MS sees Google as enemy number 1, that's why they want to buy yahoo.
Google owns Google (which now owns YouTube). Microsoft owns MSN (why they want Yahoo). Interactive Media owns Ask.com. News Corp owns MySpace.
That's a lot of money.
I haven't forgotten that Microsoft is the company that declared about 3 years ago that the Internet was stagnant, so there wouldn't be a need to produce any new versions of their browser.
Yahoo has a lot of cool tools and information sources that I use regularly. I haven't considered anything produced by Microsoft to be cool or amazing since Excel back in 1987. I don't want to see the tools I use at Yahoo get mired in the muck of Microsoft's mediocrity or to have Microsoft decide that there is no need to continue improving them, just like there was no need to improve Internet Explorer. :rolleyes:
I love Yoohoo, but I don't understand what Microsoft would want with a chocolate flavored drink :eek:

It's the weekend after a big holiday weekend, so people think there is nothing to do. Of course that is wrong. There is always a live show to see. Here are the shows that should be on your calendar this weekend.
07/10 Ana Tijoux at U Street Music Hall
Ana Tijoux's music has been featured in movies and television shows, including the already iconic Breaking Bad. The "1977" rapper, has been enjoying her solo career since she branched out from her former group, Makiza. Check out the French-Chilean rapper at U Street Music Hall
07/10 Carl Thomas at Howard Theatre
Grammy nominated singer, Carl Thomas will be at Howard Theatre on Thursday with his "Emotional" brand of R&B. Thomas had a string of hits in the early '00s, including "I Wish" and "Summer Rain." While new singers like August Alsina are making waves, Thomas is still giving people the R&B that they miss.
07/11 Neon Trees at Ramshead Live
Neon Trees is already a fun, unique band, so when they hit the stage they are just a ball of energy. Well, at least lead Singer Tyler Glenn is. And with their new album, Sleeping With A Friend, out, they have even more material to work with. If you didn't get tickets to their sold out show at the 930 Club on Sunday, you can still catch them at Ramshead Live on Friday.
07/11 Bruno Mars at Jiffy Lube Live
Bruno Mars put on a showstopping performance at the Super Bowl this year, turning those who doubted him into fans. His old school style, vocals, and dance moves, make Mars a treat to see live. With a stack of hits of his own and as a featured artist, he has plenty of material for you to enjoy. Take a trip to Bristow to catch the potential future hall of famer.
07/12 & 07/13 Natalie Merchant at Lincoln Theatre
Natalie Merchant is perhaps most widely known for her top 10 hit, "Carnival." Since breaking out in 1995 with her debut solo album Tigerlily, Merchant has released six albums. Her latest album, Natalie Merchant, was released earlier this year, after over a decade without a release. She will be playing two shows this weekend at Lincoln Theatre.

Wondering when J.J. Abrams will finally get started on "Star Wars: Episode VII," given the dearth of news surrounding the project? Turns out, it's already started shooting.
Speaking with a crowd at the Loyola Marymount School of Film and Television in Los Angeles, Disney Studios Chairman Alan Horn dropped a few surprising details about the space-bound sequel.
"We're actually shooting some of it now," Horn said when asked whether filming would begin in May, as expected based on previous comments from director Abrams
This lines up with recent rumors that the film has already started shooting in Cairo, Egypt. It's possible that what Horn might be referring to is second unit shooting, grabbing location shots and B-roll for use in effects-heavy pieces; rather than having a cast on set. But he was mum on any further details of the shoot.
There are two other elements that make this news surprising: we haven't had a formally announced cast; and as far as we knew, the script wasn't done yet.
"It's actually there now," Horn said when asked if the screenplay was finished. "It's all about the screenplay. It has to be screenplay, screenplay, screenplay."
The script is co-written by J.J. Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan, based on a previous draft written by "Toy Story 3" writer Michael Arndt. Though this also hasn't been confirmed, the script reportedly concerns the three original "Star Wars" actors — Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford — passing the torch to three members of the younger generation.
Horn also confirmed that the movie will take place 35 years after the original, to time with the December, 2015 release date.
"We have a lot of them, it's not completely done yet," Horn noted on the casting.
Speculation, but this may include Ford who as of yet hasn't commented officially on returning to a galaxy far, far away; while both Hamill and Fisher have leaked their involvement.
As for the rest of the cast, and other details? "Patience you must have," Horn quipped, in his best Yoda imitation.
You can watch the full interview here:
"Star Wars: Episode VII" is scheduled to hit theaters on December 18, 2015.

Two men allegedly raped a missing teenager earlier this month at an apartment complex in Dalton – and on Thursday police were still searching for one of the suspects.
They are asking for the public's help in finding the 21-year-old man.
Carl Edward Belgon is wanted for child molestation and statutory rape in the alleged incident that happened on April 9, according to Dalton police. A second suspect, 24-year-old Anthony Deparrish Quinn, of 3258 Rauschenberg Road in Dalton, was arrested the next day on similar charges, police spokesman Bruce Frazier said in a news release on Wednesday.
The teenage girl, who was reported missing after she did not return home from school, showed up later that same evening and reported that she had engaged in sex acts with two men in an apartment at the Chalet Valley Apartments, Frazier said.
The teen, whose age has not been released, identified the men who allegedly molested her as Belgon and Quinn, police said. They have not released any details on how the teen know the men or the circumstances that led to her being with them at the apartment complex that day. It's also unclear how long the teen was with the men.
On the day of Quinn's arrest, police issued warrants for Belgon and have been searching for him ever since, Frazier said. Belgon's last known address is 122 Denali Drive in Calhoun, he said.
Anyone with information regarding Belgon's whereabouts is asked to please contact Detective Scott Murray at (706) 278-9085, ext. 148.

College Hockey:UNH Ekes by Lowell
No. 6 Wildcats Stave Off Upset
DURHAM, N.H. — The sixth ranked University of New Hampshire defeated UMass-Lowell 3-2 Friday night at the Whittemore Center Arena.
Matt Fornataro had a goal and two assists for UNH and freshmen Phil DeSimone had two assists. UMass Lowell goalie Nevin Hamilton had 41 saves in the game.
It was an important win for us, I thought our team played hard it was disappointing when we were down 2-1 but I told them to stay with it and they came out and played the second period not a whole heck of a lot we got it tied up which was important. I liked the way we moved, we stayed with them we had a lot of chances, said UNH head coach Dick Umile.
New Hampshire got on the board first when Jerry Pollastrone scored his fourth goal of the year. Assists were given to Fornataro and Brad Flaishans. Fornataro had the opportunity to make it a 2-0 Wildcat lead when he received a breakaway pass from Craig Switzer but was unable to convert.
The Riverhawks tied it up on a Jonathan Maniff goal. Lowell increased their lead to 2-1 when Mark Roebothan scored a power play goal. Assists were given to Scott Campbell and Ryan Blair.
The second period was a dominant one for New Hampshire as they had 17 shots on net. Hamilton was able to make 16 saves throughout the middle frame. Fortney and vanRiemsdyk had a good opportunity to tie the game when vanRiemsdyk received a pass from Fortney in front of the net, but Hamilton made the stop.
Fornataro scored from the right post off a Craig Switzer pass. DeSimone was also given credit for the assist. New Hampshire had two power play opportunities, but were unable to score on either chance. The second period ended with the two teams tied 2-2.
The Wildcats started the final period on the power play, but that was short lived as DeSimone was called for hooking. About midway through the third, DeSimone passed the puck to Radja who was in front of the net. Radja scored the game winner at 11:24.
With 2:00 to play, Kevin Regan made a big glove save on Roebothan to perserve the Wildcats lead. Lowell would pull Hamilton with 1:05 remaining in regulation.
I was proud of how we battled this evening. We knew it was going to be an opportunity for us to see how far we could bend without breaking. We had a good chance to tie it passed the midway point in the third and we dont and they get a puck jumping on their stick off of our skate and they finish and thats the difference, said Blaise MacDonald.
New Hampshire is 8-2-1, 5-2-1 in Hockey East. UMass Lowell fell to 4-4-4, 2-4-4 in league play.
The two teams face off tomorrow at the Tsongas Arena. Game time is 7 p.m.

Magazine of the painting blogosphere.
Luke Elwes reviews two painting exhibitions: Painting Now: Five Contemporary Artists at Tate Britain (through February 9, 2014) and The Edge of Painting, curated by Tess Jaray at The Piper Gallery (through December 30).
Elwes writes that the shows ofer "two quite different perspectives" on the continued relevance of painting. Painting Now, he writes, "and its accompanying text read like a research paper on an endangered species, a clinical exercise in which the work of five disparate painters is put under the microscope to see what clues it might yield to its continued and – in Darwinian terms – surprising existence in 'what has come to be understood as a post-medium age.'" At The Piper Gallery, he continues, curator and artist Tess Jaray "turns the Tate's assumption on its head by saying painting needs not words (or a rear-guard action) but a more imaginative and playful approach to the medium itself. The artists she has chosen... reflect her sense that rather than being adrift in a post-medium age, 'now it seems, all art aspires to the condition of painting'. Here the medium need no longer be the message: indeed it is the medium – paint itself – which stands to limit painting's progress."
Isla Leaver-Yap writes about the work of Lucy McKenzie, whose paintings are currently on view in the exhibition Painting Now: Five Contemporary Artists at Tate Britain, London (through February 9, 2014).
"Largely comprising portraits, still lifes, scaled architectural elevations and installations," Leaver-Yap notes, "McKenzie's body of work could be formally characterised as representational painting: the expressions of an agent who has elected to speak on behalf of another party. Permission is irrelevant; technique is key. Within representational painting, seduction is most easily elicited through verisimilitude — painting tries to persuade us to perceive illusion as reality."
In an ongoing series of works, Leaver-Yap continues, McKenzie's utilizes the form of "the quodlibet — a type of trompe l'oeil involving tableaux of small and intimate objects, and that takes its name from the Latin for 'that which pleases'... the quodlibet is a combination of consummate painterly skill and visual punning."
Emily Spicer reviews the exhibition Painting Now: Five Contemporary Artists at Tate Britain, London, on view through February 9, 2014. The show features works by Tomma Abts, Gillian Carnegie, Simon Ling, Lucy McKenzie, and Catherine Story.
Spicer writes that the show "brings together five contemporary artists whose paintings occupy a variety of conceptual concerns, while sharing certain leanings towards traditional practice... A quiet strangeness pervades these works, a sort of understated but powerful aesthetic connected by illusion, by the strangeness of perception and the transformative power of interpreting the world in paint. And each artist in this exhibition has a nuanced and subtle message. Formalist concerns sit alongside ideas of artistic appropriation, shifting meanings and political ideology... the true aim of this exhibition remains elusive and as subtle as the paintings themselves. However, what we can be sure of is that, right now, painting is alive and well."
Simon Ling and Chris Ofili discuss painting on the occasion of the exhibition Painting Now: Five Contemporary Artists at Tate Britain, on view from November 12 - February 9. 2014. The show features works by Tomma Abts, Gillian Carnegie, Simon Ling, Lucy McKenzie, and Catherine Story.
Ling comments: "Painting is really good at getting you close to certain kinds of things. Subtle is radical... You make a mark with paint, it holds that thing, for as long as anybody's going to look at it. That movement [of looking] is now held in a material. You combine all those energies and you make this thing which is a living record."
Dan Coombs reviews the exhibition A Bigger Splash: Painting After Performance at Tate Modern, on view through April 1, 2013.
Coombs writes that performance art "can be an exhausting medium with little room for the sort of contemplation possible in front of a painting. The form itself is ephemeral and disappears as soon as the performance is over and often the only evidence that such a thing ever happened is through a photograph or a film... This is ironic given that performance art is a continuation, and some might say completion, of the modernist drive towards actuality. It articulates its form through a real body, a real presence, and gives its subjects, which are often imbued with political urgency, a condition of actual being. The disadvantage with it is that, as with events in real life, it is over so very quickly, and often we encounter it most readily through the mediated form of photography or film, a translation of actuality into a fiction. Painting, in comparison, seems embarrassingly immediate."

Perth soup kitchen counts cost of feeding backpackers
Backpackers are costing a soup kitchen in Perth over $30,000 a year, its co-founder says.
Manna Inc's Bev Lowe and her husband John packed up and sold their farm to set up the organisation, which has spent decades feeding those less fortunate in Perth's CBD.
Ms Lowe has told the Irish Echo that up to 10 Irish backpackers frequent their soup kitchen in Weld Park each night and with each meal costing $10 to make, the organisation is down over $30,000 a year from providing tourists with three-course meals.
Approximately 140 people a day are fed at the city soup kitchen six days a week, and Ms Lowe has revealed they simply cannot afford to keep on feeding backpackers.
"We're on the streets to feed the homeless – that's why we're there, we're not there to feed people who are on holiday," Ms Lowe said.
"It really doesn't matter if they need the food – the fact is that backpackers are supposed to prove before they come into the country that they have sufficient money to support themselves.
"It's nothing against the Irish, we just can't afford to feed them, and I'm sorry if they're finding it tough, but they really should have planned better. I certainly am not a person to deny a meal to anybody, but I have to feed those who are homeless and desperate first," Ms Lowe said.
While Ms Lowe stressed that Irish backpackers are not the only tourists lining up for free meals, she did say they make up the majority of the backpackers visiting the Weld Park soup kitchen.
"I can understand how and why and all the rest, but we can't afford it and they should be providing for themselves," she said. "Unfortunately the Irish are easy to pick out because they have a strong accent.
"I have nothing against the Irish. My grandfather was an Irishman. I have Irish blood running through my veins. My grandfather was John Michael O'Leary – how much more Irish can you get?" she said.
"It is an embarrassment for the Irish and it's an embarrassment for me, and it's really hard on my team leaders because they don't like to say no."
She said Manna does not receive any government funding and relies on donations from the public to keep the organisation going. "I have to raise this money – it doesn't just fall out of the sky because somebody's gracious and kind," she said.
"We were farmers, we sold our farm to make this happen, and now we're totally dependent on people's generosity to feed the homeless."
As two Manna vans pulled up at Weld Park in Northbridge on May 3, two Irishmen queued up to be fed alongside the homeless and helpless.
The two men, who had not come to the soup kitchen together, asked not to be named. They said they could not afford the price of food in Perth, and that they rely on the free meals provided by Manna.

STANFORD, Calif.- Senior Dwight Powell was selected by the Charlotte Hornets in the second round of the 2014 NBA Draft on Thursday night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Powell, who was the 15th pick of the round and 45th overall, joins teammate Josh Huestis, who was taken 29th overall in the first round by the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Following the draft, Powell was traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers along with Brendan Haywood in exchange for Alonzo Gee. A native of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Powell becomes the sixth player in school history to be chosen in the second round, joining Landry Fields (2010, New York Knicks), Jarron Collins (2001, Utah Jazz), Tim Young (1999, Golden State Warriors), Kimberly Belton (1980, Phoenix Suns) and Arthur Harris (1968, Seattle Supersonics).
The 31st NBA Draft choice in program history, Powell joins Fields and Huestis as Cardinal draft picks during head coach Johnny Dawkins' six-year tenure.
Congratulations @DwightPowell33 from @Stanford on being drafted. @GoStanford #SecondRoundPicks #nerdnation
— jarron collins (@jarronctwin) June 27, 2014
Stanford has now totaled 11 NBA Draft selections since 2000.
It's the first time two Stanford players have been chosen in a draft since 2008, when Brook Lopez (No. 10, New Jersey Nets) and Robin Lopez (No. 15, Phoenix Suns) heard their names called.
The school record holder for games played (136), Powell wrapped up his four-year career averaging 10.8 points and 6.3 rebounds while shooting 46.4 percent overall. A dynamic all-around player, Powell concluded his time on The Farm also ranking seventh in blocks (118), ninth in steals (125) and 18th in assists (240).
A two-time All-Pac-12 First Team honoree, Powell averaged at least 14.0 points in each of his final two seasons while starting every game. After being named an NABC All-District Second Team selection and Pac-12 Most Improved Player of the Year as a junior, Powell was recognized as a Preseason Wooden Award candidate entering his final season.
Dwight Powell has been selected by the Charlotte Hornets with the 45th overall pick. #canadadraft2014
— Canada Basketball (@CanBball) June 27, 2014
Leading Stanford to its fifth NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 appearance in school history following upset of New Mexico and Kansas, Powell averaged 14.0 points and 6.9 rebounds while shooting 46.2 percent overall as a senior. Embracing the role of an athletic 6-10 "point forward", Powell dished out a team-best 112 assists (3.1 per game) and led the club with 47 steals while notching seven double-doubles.
As a junior, Powell was the only Pac-12 player ranked among the league's top-10 in both scoring and rebounding, averaging a team-best 14.9 points while ranking second on the squad with 8.4 rebounds per game and reaching double figures in 27 contests. Powell became one of three Stanford players over the last decade to register at least 10 double-doubles, joining Fields (13 in 2009-10) and Matt Haryasz (10 in 2005-06).
During his sophomore year in 2011, Powell averaged 5.8 points and 4.6 rebounds per game. Powell was a key contributor during Stanford's NIT championship run, averaging 8.8 points and 5.8 rebounds while shooting 65.4 percent from the field.
Congrats to @DwightPowell33 on his draft selection as well!!!! #Stanford
— Landry Fields (@landryfields) June 27, 2014
He earned a spot on the Pac-10 All-Freshman Team in 2010, starting 26 of 31 games played and averaging 8.1 points and 5.2 rebounds per game while scoring in double figures 11 times.
Equally accomplished off the court, Powell is a three-time Pac-12 All-Academic honoree and this season's recipient of the Pac-12 Scholar-Athlete of the Year award.
Powell, who earned his degree in Science, Technology & Society while boasting a 3.05 cumulative GPA, was one of 30 candidates for this year's Senior CLASS Award, honoring notable achievements in areas of community, classroom, character and competition.
Congratulations to all the new draftees. Especially my Stanford brethren @JHuestis and @dwightpowell33
— Josh Childress (@JChillin) June 27, 2014
Joining Huestis as team captain, Powell was also the recipient of the athletic department's Bill Walsh Leadership Award, selected by fellow student-athletes and given to the Stanford student-athlete who inspires his/her team and the community through exemplary commitment, service, composure and integrity.
Determined to earn his degree and fulfill a promise to his late mother, Jacqueline, who lost a battle with cancer in September 2012, Powell decided to return for his senior year despite an opportunity to begin his professional career early. Powell displayed increased maturity as a senior, helping his teammates achieve a stated goal of making the NCAA Tournament. Powell's community service activities included work with Boys & Girls Club, Read for America, Lucille Packard Children's Hospital and Reading Rainbow East Palo Alto event.

Just a sidenote: we're getting pretty close to the wedding here...16 days to be exact!! (Eek! So exciting!) My posts might be a little more sparse than usual from here on out, and regrettably some emails may be falling through the cracks. I'll make it up to you with wedding photos though, I promise! Actually we just had our engagement photos taken last night. (We waited until the very end, I know, but around here the snow is finally losing its battle against the sun!) And yes, there was turquoise!! :)

The Design program at Keiser University was filled with real world learning and hands on instruction… Based on the portfolio I created while a student at Keiser University, I landed a job in Graphic Design for a major online retailer immediately after graduation.
The year and a half I spent in the program better prepared me for attaining a job in the field…As a hands-on learner, the project-centered teaching was perfect for me.
Keiser University has given me the opportunity to embrace a career change… It has opened the door for a timely graduation and quick return to the work force…
Without the education I received at Keiser University, I would not be where I am today!
I not only received an excellent education but also encouragement and training that built my self-confidence every day.
I realize the amount of knowledge I gained and feel that the educational experiences have developed me in to a person who can move higher up the career ladder.
Keiser University's MBA program has renewed my mind, changed the way I think, and given me a new sense of purpose. The professors transformed my attitude and behavior, gave me the self-confidence I was lacking, and restored my energy.
It has been great attending and graduating from Keiser University. Because of the small class sizes, I was able to build good relationships with classmates and professors. The PA professors care very much about the progress and success of the students and have been great advisors every step of the way through the program.
Attending Keiser University and getting my degree was the best decision I have ever made. The small class sizes and personalized attention helped me get my degree quickly. The hands-on experience and the education landed me a job at a neighboring law firm.
I chose Keiser because it had everything—small classes, caring professors, hands-on learning, and counselors that are really there for you. I feel like I'm part of a family here, not just a number.
After being denied for several promotions at my current employer, I decided that I needed to further my education. Since graduating from Keiser with my bachelor's degree in Business Administration, I have been promoted and I am able to obtain positions that weren't available to me before.
Keiser helped change my life by getting my education at the right school! I have been going to another school before, dropped out because I felt that I was not getting enough information that I need. When I found out about Keiser, I was pleased because the instructors were great.
My decision to attend Keiser University has been one of the best decisions I've made. I chose to enroll in the Information Technology program… The one-class-a-month pace helped incredibly with my self-discipline.
The BA for Business Administration at Keiser has to be one of the best in the nation. Keiser takes the basics that are taught at the Associates level and uses them to strengthen your skills and knowledge.
I found that Keiser University's Nuclear Medicine program of advanced studies and small class size was a perfect fit. I never came across a faculty member who wasn't truly interested.

In planning my music teaching materials, I have cultivated respect and value for original ideas from the very beginning.
I am now including the idea of cultivating tenderness.
By getting away from the pressure of our hurried lives, we can slow down for intimate and tender moments with our children.
The fear culture around us distracts us from the ability to build an inner practice with our family.
Instead of inviting the noise and pain of the outside culture into our homes through the media and technology we can make our homes a sacred sanctuary.
We can build routines of cooking dinner together, conversation at the table, and community as we clean up.
In my music materials, I include a transitional technique (I post a grown-up version at www.takethreedeepbreaths.blogspot.com) to set the stage for musical learning.
By spending ten minutes a day of undistracted time with your child, you are cultivating tenderness.
You attention is not pressured, not divided.
You tenderly attend to your child's learning needs, step by step. You can expand this to other time you spend with your child.
As you expand your tenderness practices from one routine activity to another, and then another, your household will take on an entirely different character.
You may find yourself cultivating tenderness in your own routines, and preparing thoughtfully instead of in a rush.
You can cultivate tenderness from the inside and let it expand into all your activities.

"I've never done a sex scene before," says Aubrey Plaza of The To Do List (opening July 26). "It's like going from zero to a million."
In the new female-oriented comedy from Maggie Carey, Plaza plays brainy Brandy Klark, a high school valedictorian determined to lose her virginity—and chalk up a variety of erotic experiences—in pre-internet 1993. Back then, googling sexual acts was not an option, so Brandy has to rely on her friends' limited experiences and her own creative interpretations as she tries to cross off items on the lascivious list.
Writer-director Carey, who jokingly says that the script was inspired by "my first hand job," shared her 1993 diaries with Plaza, 29, to take the actress back to the era. "It was fun to put yourself into that mindset," Plaza says, "but I also read my own diaries."
The spectacularly busy young Parks and Recreation star—she has several other film projects in the works—spoke to More about her first leading role.
More: How do you feel about this new wave of bawdy female comedies?
Aubrey Plaza: I think it's awesome! It's great that there are more movies and TV shows that are female-centric and kind of honestly portray the female point of view of sex. The HBO show Girls is a great example of that. If our movie is being lumped in that category of showing sex at a certain age, it's really cool. In the past, those movies have focused on the male's first time; there's not a ton that go for it from a female perspective. So whether people like it or not, it's important that it's being done.
More: What was the most difficult scene for you?
A.P.: Every scene was difficult. It is a comedy, so that relieved the pressure. But the scene where I'm losing my virginity—it's funny, but a real scene. It's a crazy thing to capture on film and very scary for me.

400K+ Solaris Downloads Contributing Factors
By John Clingan-Oracle on Feb 13, 2005
Jonathan says - Wow! I say Holy Cow! (Cow's not the first word that came to mind). Either way, those are pretty darn good statistics.
I am finding a tremendous amount of "awareness" out there of Solaris 10. Contributing factors for this awareness include:
- Value. Thanks engineers & product management for a great product. If it weren't for you, Solaris 10 would be a marketing slide. And, of course, The Clingan Zone would almost be a blank page :)
- Thanks Marketing, for keeping the buzz at a level higher than a bottle of vodka!
- The OpenSolaris community - thanks contributors & participants - I'm dedicating a zone to each of you
- The "but it's not Linux" controversy - thanks naysayers and trade rags - for generating awareness.
- Thanks analysts, for ummm, uuuh ... wait a sec ... hold on ... beating us senseless?? :) Oh yeah, for the positive outlook at the bar. I think the vodka buzz had some influence :) More seriously, I know we don't always agree. We deserve to get beat up at times. That's OK. I'll buy you a beer (no hard feelings) if we get a chance to meet some day. Except for the guy who wants us to kill SPARC ... that's not OK. You buy your own drink.
- Bloggers! I wonder where the Solaris download count would be if it were not for bloggers - both inside and outside of the Sun.com domain. Solaris community bloggers, industry bloggers, end user bloggers, marketing bloggers, executive bloggers, naysayer bloggers, pundit bloggers, etc. Now let's start blogging about what this engine of innovation is doing in production ...

Healthy eating is another common New Year's resolution made by parents. Moms play many different roles these days, included several sub-roles within their immediate family. The chef role is one that is carried out daily…several times a day. So with this article we'll take a look at ideas we can put into play to make out healthier eating goal a reality.
After making your resolution, it's time to put together a plan to help you achieve your goal. So using the above as an example, lets put a list together to move us towards our goal of spending eating healthier meals as a family.
- Check nutrition labels when you shop. Sometimes what happens with our dinner plans is we tend to fall back on habits like the kinds of food we buy whenever we go grocery shopping. You may notice you'll buy the same foods each and every time. While this is not a bad idea, it's a better idea to check into the quality of the foods we buy. You can start buy checking the nutrition labels for fat, sugar, and other daily nutrient contents as well as the ingredients list. The ingredients list will name the ingredients in order of what the item has the most amount of. Example: bread may have ingredients listed as: flour, water, corn syrup, yeast. This tells us that the main ingredient is flour followed by water and so on.
- Consider school lunches. Parents who send their child's lunch to school with them each day automatically know what their kids eat each day and can be sure to provide healthy foods that their kids can enjoy. Parents whose kids eat the cafeteria provided lunches can check up on what their kids eat by utilizing MyLunchMoney.com, which EPISD has as an option to pay for kids school meals. EPISD provides nutrition information on their website as well.
- Choose healthy snacks. It can be hard to make the switch to healthier snack options around the house. You can try looking for alternatives to your favorites while shopping. Maybe baked chips instead of regular? Whole wheat low sodium crackers instead of saltines? Sugar free or low calorie sweets? Baby Cakes by Marcy in El Paso recently had 100 calorie and sugar free items offered.
- Meal planning is a way to keep your goal on track. When you plan your meals you'll be able to make sure nutritious foods go to work and aren't tempted into less healthy options by last minute what-am-I-going-to-eat scenarios.
- Get creative with the veggies. If your kids refuse to eat certain vegetables, try serving them in disguise. Consider chopping them up and adding them to soup, or serving them fresh with a dip.
These are just a few ideas to get you started. Try one or think up some that are reasonable for your family and go for it! What is your new year's resolution as a parent and how is the progress going? I want to hear from you.

2010 Frisco Cyclocross - Updated Information
Submitted by David on
We received this information from the promoters of the Frisco Cyclocross races happening this weekend.
- The course is great, some new paved sections have been added, and we'll use more of the infield area for spectators too.
- Due to all the construction, the old Nordic center entrance off of Hwy 9 is no longer in use. This doesn't affect the venue, except for our car traffic.
- Continue past the old entrance to the traffic light at the top of the hill, turn left into the "forest service" entrance. From there, we should have signage or instructions on where to park.
- Racers and teams with tent set ups who plan on making a day of it (and you
should) are encouraged to get there early so they can park down below by the ball fields and set up. Beer is available to racers for FREE.
- Parking is limited down below so if you are able bodied, park up high, off of Crown Point road or east of the entrance road on the dirt to keep traffic hassle to a minimum.
- Overflow parking is also available if you turn Right into the County Commons. Then you just need to cross the road to get to the venue. Look both ways. Please Carpool if at all possible to minimize the potential for parking and traffic hassles. Locals should ride your bikes!
- Registration will be at or near the Organic Mechanic Trailer along with the officials table and Start/Finish area, not at the lodge as previously posted.
Thanks for your cooperation.

The parents are obviously not married and do not live together. Notice that Mom and her brother were both assaulted after they WENT TO THE FATHER'S HOME with the child in tow.
Hmm. Wonder if this is another one of those court-mandated visitation situations, where the mother brought along another adult for added protection. Of course, WHY the mother went to the father's house is not explained or even brought up here....
Augusta father faces assault charges
By Bianca Cain Johnson
Staff Writer Tuesday, Jan. 8, 2013 11:07 AM
Last updated 7:32 PM
An Augusta man faces charges after being accused of holding his child's mother at knife-point Sunday.
According to Richmond County sheriff's Lt. Calvin Chew, Janine Henley, 30, of North Augusta, and her brother, Dominik Henley, 23, of Beech Island, were attacked after they went to the home of Henley's child's father on Dewitt Street.
Police said Janine Henley was arguing with Eddie Raymond Bennett, 42, when Bennett began choking her and put a knife to her throat. In his attempts to help his sister, Dominik Henley suffered cuts to his leg, police said.
Police said Bennett and Henley's child witnessed the assault.
Bennett was booked into the Richmond County jail on charges of cruelty to children in the third degree and two counts of aggravated assault.

An Everlasting Covenant
Adult 1 Sunday School Class Genesis 9:8-17 September 22, 2013
Theme: A natural disaster can cause great anxiety over the safety and welfare of loved ones. God said that the rainbow would remind Him of the covenant to protect all living creatures.
Understanding and Interpreting the Scripture (responses are in bold print)
Please explain the meaning or significance of the following verses
Background: Following the flood, God blesses Noah in verses 9:1-7, and similarly parallels that which He gave to Adam. Both blessings commanded them to be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth. The blessings were altered for Noah. Mankind had dominion over creation, but due to sin, the harmony in the "garden" that had existed had ended. Now the animals did not have affection for man, but feared him. Animals that fear something can be dangerous. God still gave man dominion over the animals ensuring that man would prevail. The food that they could eat had been expanded since Adam's (1:29) time. Animal protein had been added to the diet, along with the green herbs that God had given to Adam. Animal protein refers to small animals from land or sea. In Lev. 11, Israelites were later limited to eating only clean animals. The meat of animals could be eaten, but the blood must be drained first. If a man or an animal deliberately takes the life of another man, then the murderer could be put to death. But not so for a man or an animal, taking the life of another animal. The reason for the punishment for murder was that man was made in the image of God. Verse 9:6, the unauthorized taking of a man's life became a capital offense, in which authorized credentialed officials could execute the murderer(s). Other verses in the Law of Moses reinforced this concept (Exo 20:13; 21:23, Deut 19:21). No such law existed for the killing of animals, illustrating man's superiority over animals in the eyes of God.
* Genesis 9:8, "And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying," 9. "And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;" 10. "And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth." This is the conclusion of the Covenant which God made with Noah begun in Gen.6:18. Following the great flood, God spoke to Noah and his sons. Noah was now the seminal head of God's new creation since his family was the only one remaining after the flood. God wanted to assure Noah that he should not be in fear of Him following this ordeal, and therefore made a "covenant" with him.. He assured him that he could live out the rest of his life in rest and peace, for God's anger with the world had been appeased. God's pledge extended not only to Noah but also to his "seed" (i.e. relatives of Noah that came after him, future generations).
*v. 11, "And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth." The covenant was that God would not allow water to destroy the earth again. This covenant was universal and unconditional, in that Noah was not obliged to commit to anything, and that God included every living creature in this covenant. It represented the second covenant in the Bible, after marriage.
*v. 12, "And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:" 13. "I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth." God gave Noah a token of His covenant by placing His bow in the clouds as a symbol never again to destroy humankind by water. God's bow usually symbolized war, but in this case, the bow, would be a rainbow of peace. It would signify God's covenant with Noah.
*v. 14, "And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:" 15. "And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh." From this time forward the rainbow would be an affirmation of God's grace and peace, that He would never again send water to flood the earth and destroy all flesh. That included the flesh of humans and non-humans.
*v. 16, "And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth." The rainbow is formed when light from the sun rays passes through the moisture from water vapor in the clouds. This causes the diffraction of light into different wavelengths and thus rendering a variety of colors. It usually happens after a storm, and it is comforting to know that God's wrath that once resulted in a great Flood will always be quieted when He looks upon His token of peace, the rainbow.
*v. 17, "And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth." For the seventh time, God's covenant is confirmed. God is faithful not to forget His promise to Noah. Noah and all mankind can be assured that God's covenant remains in effect, and that God is in control of all that is happening on earth.

Pope: US, Mexico border conditions 'inhumane'
VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis has decried the "inhuman" conditions facing migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border and has encouraged communities there not to judge people by stereotypes but welcome migrants and work to end discrimination. Francis made the appeal in a letter to a Jesuit priest who helps organize Catholic teens in Nogales, Arizona, to support the Kino Border Initiative, which advocates a more humane solution to migration. The letter was dated Dec. 19 but was made public on Kino's website recently.

Skin Problems, ASCO's
section has been reviewed and approved by the PLWC Editorial Board, 05/05
The skin is an organ that protects the body from
infection. Because skin is on the outside of the body and visible to
others, many people have difficulty coping with skin problems. In addition,
skin problems can be painful because the skin contains many nerves. As with
other side effects, prevention or early treatment of skin problems is best.
With established skin problems, treatment and wound care can often improve
pain symptoms and quality of life.
With most skin problems, the doctor must decide if healing the wound is a
realistic goal. If it is not, then containing it and keeping the patient
as comfortable and pain-free as possible becomes the goal.
Some common skin problems experienced by people with cancer are listed below.
Chemotherapy extravasation. This is the
term used to describe chemotherapy drugs leaking out of a vein. The drugs
can damage the skin where the intravenous (IV) tube was placed or the
tissue around the area it touches, causing pain or burning. Pain or
burning during chemotherapy may not be normal, and you should tell the
nurse or doctor right away. If an extravasation
occurs during treatment, the infusion should be stopped and the wound
cleaned. The nurses and doctors will care for the wound and instruct you
how to care for it at home.
Radiation-induced treatment skin problems. When radiation
treatment kills cancer cells, it also kills some healthy cells. When it
kills cells on the skin, it can cause the skin to peel. Damage to the
skin from radiation treatment can start after one or two weeks of
treatment and usually resolves a few weeks after treatment is finished.
If skin damage from radiation treatment becomes a problem, the doctor may
change the dose or schedule of treatments.
Necrotic wound. This is a wound with dead skin or tissue around
it. A necrotic wound cannot heal if the dead tissue is still present, so
removing the dead tissue is the first step in treating it. This process
is called debridement and may involve surgery,
enzymes or gel, or other methods.
Pressure ulcers (bed sores). Pressure ulcers are sores that form
where there is constant pressure on one area of the body. They often form
on the heels of the feet or the sacrum (tailbone). Ulcers are less likely
to form on parts of the body where there is a thicker layer of fat.
For patients who are confined to a bed, an air or water mattress overlay
may help prevent ulcers. Low-air-loss beds or air-fluidized beds may also
help. For pressure ulcers that are not expected to heal, providing
comfort and pain control and preventing ulcers from getting worse become
the main goals.
Malignant wounds. These injuries form when cancer breaks the skin
and causes a wound. A malignant wound can be caused by cancer from
another part of the body or from skin cancer. These wounds may have a
foul odor, bleed, and can be very painful.
Malignant wounds carry a high risk of infection. They may also exudate, or secrete, a large
amount of fluid or blood. The odor from a malignant wound can be
overpowering and can be managed by placing a competing odor or odor
absorber in the room, such as cat litter, charcoal, or coffee.
Pruritus. This is the medical
term for itching. Pruritus in people with
cancer is most often caused by leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma,
or other cancers. Kidney or liver failure, thyroid problems, a drug
reaction, dry skin, hives, and other skin infections can also cause
Pruritus that is caused by an irritant, such as
a drug, can be treated by stopping the use of that drug. Moisturizers,
antihistamines, steroid medications, and cooling or painkilling creams or
gels may also help relieve itching.

text: Just wanted to make sure the "new" was worn off of my M&P 40. Well, the first trip was not a fluke, this piece is deadly accurate and easy to handle. I really tried not to like this gun, I am an OLD Ruger man. Loved my P94. First trip to the range was impressive, for me. But, I figured it might just be a case of, well, I spent that much money, I had best like this gun. Not the case at all. Second range trip was more impressive than the first. I found myself shooting at the dividing line between squares on the target. The biggest surprise, I could easily hit it??? Go figure. This gun handles sweet. Feels good in my hand, easy to point, easy to aim. Recoil is much lighter than my old Ruger. The M&P40 took about 200 rounds to start hurting my wrist. Gun just feels natural, if you know what I mean. It feels like an extension of my index finger, it just shoots wherever I point it, might sound strange to some, but, some will understand. Yep, this is a keeper. I have about 700 rounds through it, ZERO failures, ZERO hangups, gun performs flawlessly.

The YH team with the Learning to Listen crew!
By Imogen Johnson
10 April 2012 16:30
You've seen how we got on during our Equine Assisted Team Building day with Sarah Kreutzer of Learning to Listen in Your Horse issue 360 – now find out what we each thought about the experience and what we learnt from working with Sarah's horses Black Jack and Livvy.YH editor Julie BrownI never thought it could be so difficult trying to communicate with a horse on his terms. It made me wonder what my poor horse Bo must think of me as I turn up at the yard early in the morning, flustered and rushing around like a loon. There were lots of interesting learnings and concepts to get to grips with and all in all it was a particularly eye opening experience. The horses were lovely too!
YH writer Larissa ChapmanI was amazed at how wrong it went when we tried rounding Black Jack up at the end but then how right it went once we got together as a team and analysed where our communication was going wrong. It was an eye opening, challenging and fun day. Great food too!
YH editorial assistant Emily LaughtonI'm normally quite sceptical about this sort of thing but I really enjoyed it. My favourite bit was working with Black Jack in the field, we had to completely work as a team and that little pony highlighted some useful things.
YH writer Katy IslipIt was so interesting handling a loose horse on his terms, rather than being in charge as you'd usually be. I thought the tasks were great fun and really enjoyed seeing how our team worked and learned together.
YH deputy editor Imogen JohnsonIt's amazing what you can learn from a horse's reaction to you if you just slow down and pay attention. Quite often we're so busy and our minds are so occupied with this, that and the other that we fail to notice what our horses are trying to tell us. Everything I've learnt when working with horses under Sarah's guidance has made me evaluate, and in some cases alter, the way I behave and the way I think. The team-building programme was great for us and I'd highly recommend it – go with an open mind and you won't be disappointed.
YH art editor Caroline BarleyThe day opened my eyes to the subtle differences between the characters of each member of our team. I came away with a better understanding of why I deal with situations (both good and bad) all from working with a horse!
YH gear editor Allison LowtherI was really surprised at the difference from the start of the day – as a team we were working together more and thinking about how we interact with each other. The horses were great at showing us when we were doing the exercises right and of course highlighting when we weren't doing quite so well!

all drives read ap 2.5 and 2.6 with the newest ixtreme 1.91. hitachi drive's are not immune to anything, the early versions (and some people argue all hitachi's) just dont support the ap 2.5 or 2.6 so you can play them without any issues regardless of any current Microsoft anti-piracy attempts.
you need to buy the following: 1) x360usb 2) ck3lite or cl3pro with molex power supply
After that you dont need anything else for your hitachi drive. if you had a liteon, you would also need a probe3 to extract the key.
Then once you get it all follow the JF Tut and you will be good to go.

California punks Bad Daddies have an upcoming 7" on Negative Fun Records as part of the label's 2014 Subscription Singles Club. This four-song slab o' wax is a slop bucket of well-used feedback, loose and fuzzed-out guitars, hard-hitting drums, and singer Camylle's strong yet dirty vocals. The songs on this record - "You Ain't Right," "Teenager Hell," "I Don't," and "Head on a Rail" - are all super short and have an almost lo-fi live quality, but that is simply how most good punk songs are.
Bad Daddies' upcoming 7" is streaming in its entirety over at Brooklyn Vegan now. Check it out to see if you like it. And if you are already a fan, Negative Fun Records, since it is part of their Subscription Singles Club, are only having 40 of these records pressed, so you may want to join the label's Singles Club to get a copy. There are a handful of other worthwhile bands taking part in this series as well - Philadelphia PA's No Other, Richmond VA's Positive No and Hot Dolphin, and Carrboro NC's Midnight Plus One.
