The 'Hot Spikey Seat 'O' Love'
And Other 'You People'-Type Spite

Subject: Ms. O'Hair's misspelling...
Date: January 02, 2002 10:44 PM
Perhaps one reason for the prevalent misspelling of her name, may it never be forgotten, is being overlooked. Perhaps many people are not simply victims of witch-hunt style propaganda, but are simply spelling her name as they have commonly seen Madeline (like the children's book) and O'Hare (like the airport) spelled.
This seems less like a vast conspiracy and more like the whinings of insecure people with a severe paranoia problem. I'm sorry you feel that your life means nothing in the grand scheme of things...I feel much the same way about you. Perhaps if you spent less time criticizing others for their beliefs and trying desperately to promote the beliefs of a person who needed a serious checkup from the neck-up you'd see a little more clearly.
I understand and appreciate your right to think and feel as you believe and have no quarrells with your expression of such. I just hate stupidity.
Here I was, simply looking for a piece of information, and I get lambasted as a conspirator and moron for a simple mispelling. Nice.
I hope ms. o'hayer (oops) is resting comfortably in Texas. She's got a hot spikey seat 'o' love waiting for her right next to Marylin Manson, Hitler, and Oral Roberts.
Jesus you people need help. Oh, sorry, guess you won't find any help there.
Peace to you.
Cliff responds:
I think 20 million letters to the FCC could reasonably be seen as some sort of conspiracy. Interestingly, almost all of them misspell her name as indicated: "Madeline Murray O'Hare."
Check out the Official FCC Statement debunking this one. (Is that a pink radio with boxing gloves, or what?)

2009 Research Summary
Stabilizing BGP, Safely
View Current Project Information
Philip Brighten Godfrey, Matthew Caesar, Ian Haken, Yaron Singer, Scott Shenker and Ion Stoica
Route instability is widely recognized as a major problem in the Internet. Core routers are barraged with millions of updates daily, leading to massive infrastructural costs and worsened data-plane performance. Route flap damping provides some protection against instability, but introduces pathologies and reduces availability.
With concerns about the scalability of the routing system prompting a renewed interest in stability, we believe it's time for a more principled approach to stabilizing Internet routing. This project takes a step towards that goal by quantitatively characterizing the tradeoffs between stability and two other important objectives: availability, and adherence to the network operator's preferences. We are bounding the performance of theoretically optimal strategies, and evaluating the performance of several implementable strategies. Our evaluation makes use of a large-scale simulation of the BGP protocol supplied with traces of measured inter-AS adjacency failures, as well as an experimental deployment of software routers.
Motivated by the principle that any improvements to stability should not come at the price of availability, we argue for an approach which we call Stable Route Selection (SRS). Our numerical evaluation shows that SRS preserves the high availability of BGP without flap damping, while obtaining stability similar to BGP with flap damping. These results indicate a promising approach to safely stabilizing BGP.

A look at some of the best Jenna Haze Tumblr porn
Jenna Haze retired from performing almost two years ago. However, despite not appearing in any new adult movies, she remains one of the most popular pornstars of all time. Why? Because she possessed that rare combination of stunning beauty, brutal sexual energy, and a willingness to do almost anything on camera. So it should come as no surprise that Tumblr is chock full of Jenna Haze animated porn GIFs. Here are ten of the best ones I've come across (so far)…
Tumblr is pretty famous for it's huge collection of porn. And with almost every other social media platform pretty much banning all forms of adult images and video, Tumblr is also a dying breed. Additionally, with the recent purchase of Tumblr by Yahoo, many people believe its only a matter of time before Tumblr starts cleaning up the massive amounts of smut that currently are hosted on its servers. Which is just another reason why I wanted to get these Jenna Haze GIFs posted. Because we could wake up tomorrow and find them gone from Tumblr.
As for Jenna Haze, she's not performing on camera anymore, but she is still active within the porn industry. Many of you may know that she owns the porn studio Jennaration X and has also added the title of "award winning porn director" to her resume. Additionally, Jenna still makes her rounds across the country, doing featured dancing gigs at many of the top gentleman's clubs. So while her legion of fans are eagerly awaiting her return to hardcore porn performances, chances are that won't be happening. She's doing just fine without it.
So what are your thoughts on these ten animated Jenna Haze porn GIFs?

We got this fuzzy course in the university, there was a problem which it's result led to multiple overlapping fuzzy values. in order to conclude a value out of that there was different approaches which like Centroid of area and Bisector of area.
these to functions give us approximately the same value. I'm aware that the formula to each function is different,
but logically thinking centroid of area is point which holds two equal weights by it's side. on the other hand bisector of area divides the area into two equal values. Supposing the weight (in COA) as the area (in BOA) we must get the same value, but it isn't so.
So philosophically speaking, what is the reason?

Profile of the Institut Laue-Langevin
Aug 21, 2013
The Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) is a small nuclear reactor that was built in the French city of Grenoble in the late 1960s to provide a source of neutrons for global science. Today the ILL still provides one of the most intense neutron sources in the world, as scientists and engineers come from far and wide to use the facility.
This video provides you with an overview of the "vintage" technology at this facility, explaining how researchers use neutrons to study the fundamental properties of matter. "One of the key things you can do with neutrons is to explore the magnetic structures of materials," explains the institute's director Andrew Harrison. "I think it's fair to say that 90-odd per cent of all that we know at the atomic level about magnetic materials is derived from neutron scattering."
While the institute itself is more than 40 years old, the components have been changed and upgraded regularly over the years. "The average lifetime for which an instrument remains competitive and world class is about 10 or 15 years, so we're constantly upgrading," explains Harrison. "The latest wave of that started about 12 years ago – we've upgraded about two-thirds of our suite".
Unforgettable blue
Anyone who has visited the reactor at the ILL will tell you that one of the most memorable experiences is viewing the pool surrounding the reactor core, which glows a bright blue with Cerenkov radiation. The film takes you inside the reactor core to explain how neutrons are generated from nuclear reactions then harnessed for scientific experiments. ILL engineer and scientist Giuliana Manzin talks about the extensive work that has been carried out to ensure the safety of the facility, something that she is aware is firmly in the public consciousness since the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in 2011.
Today at the ILL – which has recently secured its funding until 2023 – there is also a strong focus on the biosciences. "One of the things we're able to do now, for example, is simulate biological membranes through synthetic materials and look at the way small molecules or even viruses are absorbed through those artificial cell walls," says Harrison. "Through doing that we can devise ways to block the ingress of pathogens or viruses into materials."

The README file that accompanies this distribution.
Please read all the documentation before using or starting NT Backhand Broadcaster.
When BH Broadcaster is run for the first time your computer will be very heavily loaded and use 100% of the CPU for a short time. THIS IS NORMAL. BH Broadcaster is calculating the ARRIBA. This is a measure of how powerful your computer system is, and allows mod_backhand to properly balance backhand requests. Once the ARRIBA is calculated it is stored in the registry, and will not need to be recalculated. If you make modifications to the hardware of your computer system that will effect it's performance you should re-calculate the ARRIBA. To do this delete the ARRIBA value in the registry. Then stop and restart BH Broadcaster (app / nt service / iis filter). When BH Broadcaster restarts it will calculate the new ARRIBA, and store it in the registry.
To install the NT Backhand Broadcaster do the following:
extract the contents of the zip file.
copy ALL files to wherever you want to keep them permanently (c:\program files\cerebrasoft\bhbroadcaster)
double click on install-reg.bat (this will install registry entries for event message logging)
setup broadcast parameters before running NT Backhand Broadcaster.
This installs the software to your machine and it is ready to run as an application.
To run the application as a regular program do the following:
open a dos window
change directory to the bhBroadcaster folder (wherever you put it)
execute the command bhbroadcast -run
This will cause the broadcaster program to start immediately. Be sure to properly configure the BH Broadcaster before starting the application!
If you wish to run the application as an NT service do the following:
open a dos window
change directory to the bhBroadcaster folder (wherever you put it)
execute the command bhbroadcast -install
This will install the BH Broadcaster as a windows NT service. By default the service is set to automatically start at boot up. To change the startup setting, or to manually start the service open the control panel and double click services. The BH Broadcaster service is called "NT Backhand Broadcaster". Be sure to properly configure BH Broadcaster before starting the service!
If you no longer wish to run BH Broadcaster as a service do the following:
open a dos window
change directory to the bhBroadcaster folder (wherever you put it)
execute the command bhbroadcast -remove
This will remove the BH Broadcaster as a windows NT service. It only removes the software as a service on NT. It does not remove any settings, or remove any software or files.
If you wish to run the application as an IIS filter do the following:
start the IIS Internet Services Manager.
RIGHT click on the machine name immediately under "Internet Information Services" and select properties. NOT A REAL OR VIRTUAL WEBSITE You want to install this as a global filter, not a filter for any one particular website.
In the "master properties" drop down list, select www service and press edit
select the ISAPI filters tab.
press the add button
in the "filter name" box enter: NT Backhand Broadcaster
press the browse button
find the bhbFilter.dll file on your hard drive and double click it. (wherever you put it)
press ok, to close the filter properties box.
press ok to close the www master service properties box
stop and restart IIS (you must do this in the services, not in the Internet Service Manager)
open the control panel
double click services
Find "World Wide Web Publishing Service"
Right click and select stop
wait for a complete stop
Right click and select start
BH Broadcaster will now automatically be started and stopped when IIS is started and stopped. Be sure to properly configure the BH Broadcaster before starting the filter! Running BH Broadcaster as an IIS filter is the preferred method because it will start and stop when IIS starts and stops.
(NOTE: The BH Broadcaster will start 30 seconds after IIS by default. This is because IIS must register itself with the performance sub system when it starts up. We also must register ourselves to get NT performance information. If both IIS and BH Broadcaster attempt to register with the performance system immediately at start up IIS and BH Broadcaster deadlock and cannot start properly. The delay allows IIS to do what it needs to before we register with the performance system. The delay can be changed by a registry entry. Look at the registry information later in this document for more information.)
Registry Information:
All NT Backhand Broadcaster configuration data can be found in the application registry root in regedit.
Application registry root:
Registry Values:
Startup delay (in seconds) before BH Broadcaster begins to work. By default this is 0 when BH Broadcaster is run as an application, or a NT service. The default is 30 seconds when run as an IIS service. The registry setting will override the defaults for all three modes of operation.
The calculated relative performance of this machine. A higher number is better.
The number of CPU's installed in the machine.
The number of threads that should perform the loadCPU function. The more threads, the longer it will take. This should be the same among any group of machines that is back handed to. The default is 12 (this is linux's multithreaded default).
Mod_backhand (linux) on a pII 233 has an arriba of 143,000. NT Backhand Broadcaser on a pII 233 has an arriba of 224,422,000 with the default of 12 arriba threads. This IS due to the fact that the NT c++ compiler seems to do a better job of optimizing the loadCPU() function than the linux c++ compiler.
If you will be backhanding to both linux and NT machines I suggest you do some experimentation with the arriba threads setting (on the NT machines) in an effort to get similar arriba numbers from both linux and NT machines on equivalent hardware. Otherwise, your NT machines will be pounded and your linux machines will not be touched.
Just for comparison NT Backhand Broadcaster on a PIII 1Ghz has an arriba of 673,266,000 with the default of 12 arriba threads. By increasing the arriba threads on a more powerful system you get a more accurate reflection of it's true capabilities. I highly suggest increasing this number on a powerful machine. Again, just be sure that you have the same number of arriba threads set on each NT machine in your backhand cluster.
The following values are only used in subkeys:
the hostname to be displayed by mod_backhand. (String, Optional, only up to 39 characters will be used., Default: NT Remote Server)
The IP address of THIS MACHINE that mod_backhand should send backhanded requests to. (String, Required, format 192.168.0.10)
The port of THIS MACHINE that mod_backhand should send backhanded requests to. (DWORD, Optional, default 80)
The IP address to broadcast mod_backhand statistics to. Should either be a multicast or a broadcast address. (String, required, format 192.168.0.255). Multicasting is done on multicast addresses (Class A range 224 to 239 inclusive, i.e. 224.xxx.xxx.xxx to 239.xxx.xxx.xxx inclusive) Any address other than a multicast address should be a broadcast address. Broadcast addresses have 255 on the segment that they should broadcast to. i.e. to broadcast to all machines on 192.168.0 the address is 192.168.0.255. To broadcast to all machines on 192.168, the address is 192.168.255.255 AN ADDRESS LIKE 192.168.0.10 IS NOT A BROADCAST ADDRESS!
Port to broadcast mod_backhand statistics to. (DWORD, optional, default 4445)
TTL for broadcast data. Only used when the SendIP is a multicast address. (DWORD, Optional, default 1)
UN-installing NT BH Broadcaster
There is an un-install batch file supplied. Using the supplied batch file will remove all traces of NT BH Broadcaster from your registry. Any configuration for NT BH Broadcaster you created WILL BE LOST. Any application that wants to use the csEvntMsg.dll file will not be able to. This means that the eventlog will show an error message instead of the NT BH Broadcaster message because it can no longer load csEvntMsg.dll.
Setting up BH Broadcaster
BH Broadcaster must have additional configuration information created in the registry before you can properly broadcast performance data to a mod_backhand server. BH Broadcaster allows for many different "broadcasts" to be created.
To create a broadcast do the following:
Using regedit navigate to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CerebraSoft\Backhand_Broadcast key.
Create a key (It looks like a sub-directory) (NOT A STRING, DWORD, ETC). The key may be called whatever you like, BH Backbroadcaster does not use the key name for anything except event log messages. Choose a name that is meaningful to you.
Create values as specified in BROADCAST PARAMETERS. These values are used to broadcast NTÕs performance stats to a mod_backhand server.
To create an additional broadcast, create another key under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CerebraSoft\Backhand_Broadcast key and setup the values under that broadcast.
Additions / modifications / deletions of broadcast data are not picked up until BH Broadcaster is restarted. If required information is missing, or could not be properly parsed BH Broadcaster will write an error message to the event log, and skip the broadcast that the error was encountered in. Check the event log for any errors after starting BH Broadcaster.
When running BH Broadcaster for the first time on a system it is recommended that you create one broadcast, and then start BH Broadcaster as an application (Not a service or IIS filter). Let BH Broadcaster calculate the machines arriba. When the arriba is calculated BH Broadcaster will begin transmitting, and write an entry to the event log to indicate that it is now broadcasting. After it has begun broadcasting, check your modbackhand server to verify that it is receiving the broadcasts from NT BH Broadcaster. Also attempt backhanding from the mod_backhand server to verify it's operation. Once this is completed, you can add more broadcasts to the BH Broadcaster and restart it to pickup the changes. Be sure to perform the same verification steps on each machine that should receive NT BH Broadcast data.

Peptide Drugs Are Not Only Diverse...
Three-Dimensional Cell Culture Has Two Dimensions,...
To Conduct Cellular Censuses Sequence Deeply...
Scientific Misconduct Is Jeopardizing the Quality...
An interdisciplinary team of Boston University (BU) professors is launching a project to develop new ways to target protein-protein interactions (PPIs) with synthetic organic drugs. Financed by a four-year $1.6 million grant from the NIH, the goal is to develop new approaches for discovering drug-like small molecule inhibitors against challenging protein-protein interaction interfaces.
The work will determine if appropriately designed synthetic macrocycles can inhibit PPI targets while maintaining good drug-like properties. The test system is the intracellular PPI target NFB essential modulator (NEMO), a component of κB kinase (IKK) complex inhibitor. Chronic hyperactivity of the NFκB pathway is found in human inflammatory diseases and cancers. Inhibiting the interaction of NEMO with IKKβ, as a more targeted alternative to completely ablating all IKK kinase activity, represents a promising new approach for attenuating inflammation, the researchers believe.
Only about 10% of the potential drug targets in the human genome have been successfully targeted with marketed drugs, according to the BU group. Of the remaining 90%, a large proportion are intracellular proteins whose function is critically dependent on their reversible interactions with other proteins, they add.
Led by College of Arts & Sciences professor of quantitative biochemistry and drug discovery Adrian Whitty, Ph.D., the research team includes professors Sandor Vajda, Ph.D., and Dima Kozakov, Ph.D. (computational chemistry), John Porco, Ph.D., and Aaron Beeler (macrocycle design and synthesis), Ph.D., Karen Allen (x-ray crystallography), Ph.D., and Tom Gilmore, Ph.D. (NF-κB pathway biology).

I was floored. I can't believe people are still teaching there children this crap. I told my dss that gays are none of those things. I asked him if his brother (my ds(1)) ended up being gay, would he think he's gross and stay away. Dss said no. I told him in this house we practice love and tolerance, for all people. I also said when his grandparents were growing up, we had huge civil rights movements. I asked him if he thought it was ok that black people couldn't go to the same schools, and had different water fountains. He said that was not ok. I told him that in another 30 years discriminating against gays will be looked at just as ignorant as how blacks were treated. His mom and Step dad are highly Christian, so I know DSS knows the bible well. So I told him a verse I like, that encourages love and tolerance in the eyes of Jesus. DSS seemed to understand what I was saying. But I know he's probably never looked at it from any other point of view.
Dh was at work, which is why I didn't bring him into the conversation. But he also feels the way I do. I told dh I had this discussion with dss. Dh was fine with it. And was shocked that his ex was so close minded.
But idk, dss isn't my kid, biologically. Is this boundary stomping? I believe her beliefs are religious based, so am I in the wrong here? Would you be mad if you were BM?

Welcome to Mommy Mondays. Where the simplest solutions are somehow the hardest.
A few weeks back I wrote about my two-year-old's sleep problems. That very night we decided to nip it in the bud, and by "nip it" I mean that we decided to try something.
When I was pregnant with my firstborn, the only parenting books I was interested in were the ones about sleep. (My favorite ended up being Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child.) When to feed a baby solid foods, instructions about tummy time, I could care less about that stuff. I figured the actual raising of a child would come with instinct, or else I could quickly call any number of other mothers in my life about the daily humdrum of parenting.
But sleep, now this was a topic I wanted to be prepared for. I was terrified of "never sleeping again" and took to heart all those devious parents who came before me and warned to "sleep while you can." I really dreaded it and tried to read everything I could get my hands on about infant and child sleep.
And then Pigtail slept through the night at ten weeks, mostly on her own, and The Gorilla and I thought we were awesome as this whole parent thing. I thought moms who complained of children's sleep problems were doing it wrong. I became an advocate of Cry It Out, even though we didn't have to employ that method more than a handful of times, and then only for a few minutes.
When Pirate stopped sleeping just before he turned one, we blamed it on a number of things. The Gorilla was traveling a lot for his latest movie. I thought it was molars or a growth spurt. More than anything, we were worried about him waking his big sister, the champion sleeper. So right from the get-go we slapped a bottle in his mouth or picked him up or whatever needed to happen to get him as quiet as soon as possible.
That fall and winter was a particularly busy season, and the time sped by with one or both of us up in the night dealing with the now one-year-old and thinking that it was all just a phase. When I took the kids with me to the lake last summer, Pirate had been having sleep problems for over six months and I was on the edge of an emotional break and in my heart of hearts I didn't correlate those two things.
There was just a lot of other stuff going on. There were so many stresses in our life last year that getting up a few times a night for just a couple of minutes each didn't register as unusual or as something to be overly concerned about. But then at the lake, in a bed he hated in a room we couldn't keep warm, sleep struggles rapidly became sleep nightmares.
In June and July, Pirate woke five or six times a night, each time requiring milk or attention. I was solo-parenting for weeks at a time and pretty quickly my brain function failed me and I literally could not problem solve. I won't go fully into what a mess it made me, but when people tried to offer a solution to his nightly waking, I just stared blankly. I tried to make his room warm or his bed more comfortable, but I was helpless. As in, I couldn't help myself. Things got really bad.
After seven weeks, I moved him to a pallet on the floor in my bedroom with couch pillows as boundaries. It worked better than anything else, and he backed down to waking only once or twice a night. This felt like a Godsend, and we lived in that rhythm for months.
After we returned to Los Angeles in the fall and I got better and we all got more sleep, we still didn't address the real problem. Was he feeling anxious? Was he actually hungry, meaning we needed to adjust how we eat during the day? Was there a milk intolerance? Was it just a terrible habit?
My instinct was the latter. I do think that my son doesn't thrive 100% with our sometimes chaotic schedule, but there was nothing else to make me believe he had an allergy or anything else that might need medical treatment. Finally, finally after we realized that we were shooting ourselves in the foot as a family, we decided to let the boy cry.
I posted vaguely about the sleep problems and that week we resolved to let Pirate soothe himself back to sleep. He's two, he has reasoning ability. We talked to him about it, we talked to our daughter about it. We tried to prepare everyone for a few rough nights.
The first night, like clockwork, he awoke at 2am and started calling for us. I grabbed my phone and started the timer. I told The Gorilla that I'd let him cry for 10 minutes, then if he started to sound panicky or scared, I'd go in there and pat his back. At the impossibly long 10 minute mark, his cries hadn't strengthened or lessened. He wasn't even really crying. Just yelling for us over and over, sort of whiney like.
We decided to press on and not go in his room at all. He cried at roughly the same decibel level for 35 minutes and then he drifted back to sleep. I braced myself for another round within a few hours, but it never came. He awoke in the morning and proudly announced to us all that he "slept all night!"
The next night, more of the same. But this time I let The Gorilla run the timer and after what felt like nearly an hour, I asked how long he'd been crying.
12 minutes.
Gracious, those seconds creep by. It was the same each night, his cries never reached full urgency, he almost sounded like he was half-asleep. Every night the time lessened until it stopped completely. We woke up on day 6 to birds chirping and a happier world.
Under a week. It took less than a week to train him to sleep until morning. I feel embarrassed and ridiculous. We really let this thing get away from us mentally until it was built into a mountain and we'd never even taken the first step.
I almost didn't want to write this update on the blog because the transition was so relatively painless, and I know that some families are dealing with much more complicated issues and my directive to "just let 'em cry" could not only be unhelpful but also damaging.
But for those of you who are putting off some level of sleep training for any number of reasons, take my lesson: do it now. You'll be so glad. And more rested.

When approaching a special occasion, we have two major goals. Our personal challenges are, first, to capture the individual beauty of the people & to show the subjects in the manner in which they see themselves. This requires sensitivity to the subjects' desires, and the ability to impart permanence to a moment in time, a subtlety that will speak to those who view the photographs long after the wedding day has passed. Our second challenge is to put on paper the composition of matter and light that we envision. The final photographs are the embodied balance of these two goals.

If the result of a measurement is i.e. $3.2 \pm 0.7$, what is 0.7? At which confidence level we know that the real result is inside of this interval?
As your link indicates, it is the uncertainty in the measurement. The exact meaning of this can depend on context, but most of the time it is safe to assume that this is the standard deviation in the value that you should expect if the measurement were repeated a large number of times.
The two most common conventions I know are
The 95% interval is often used when one is giving a "normal" range of values - for example, when reporting normal blood sugar levels etc. This is more useful, because it says "if your measurement is outside of this range, you most likely have a problem" - with the usual 5% chance of being wrong.
Without context, there is no way of knowing what the authors intended - although in the example given I would be horrified if this was the standard error (over 20% on either side of the mean)...
My advice - when in doubt, ask. And when it's your turn to report a result, try to avoid possible confusion by saying what you are doing, e.g.
Note - always include units in your quoted result...

Comments about Brazilian Woven Double Hammock:
At first, our black cat was reluctant to jump into this hammock. That all changed when my wife was in it and she hopped into explore. Since then, her regal bearing prefers oversized silk pillows and fur blankets in the fall. It adds color and movement to our garden and is a gift we all treasure. tip: hang it low to the ground for all to enjoy.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The town of Moreland is little more than a wide spot on U.S. Highway 27 in Coweta County, Georgia. The town was founded in 1888 about 40 miles southwest of Atlanta and today boasts a population of just shy of 400 people.
Yet, despite its size, the village has produced a pair of Southern literary lights that shown brightly in the 20th century. Erskine Caldwell was born in Moreland in 1903. Lewis Grizzard was born at Fort Benning, Georgia in 1946, but spent his childhood years in Moreland. Though both gained renown for their writings, they were cut from very different bolts of cloth.
Caldwell wrote of poverty, racism and other social problems that plagued the South. His works included Tobacco Road and God's Little Acre that earned him a reputation as a serious writer up until his death in 1987.
On the other hand, his works also aroused animosity from some people of his native region. But, not just Southerners were leery of his writings. God's Little Acre was at one time banned as pornographic in both New York and Minnesota.
Lewis Grizzard began his career as a sports editor at the Athens Daily News and later became a columnist for the Atlanta Constitution.
He was however best known as a humorist based on his 25 books. His offbeat view of life in the South showed through in titles like Elvis Is Dead And I Don't Feel So Good Myself and If Love Were Oil, I'd Be About A Quart Low.
Grizzard also excelled as comedic speaker, appearing on the Tonight Show and guesting on the television sitcom Designing Women.
Grizzard died of heart failure in 1994 at the age of 47.
Today both writers have museums dedicated to them in the town of Moreland. The Caldwell Museum is in the The Little Manse, which is the house in where he was born.
The Lewis Grizzard Museum is on Moreland's Main Street..

Fathers and Sons
by Ivan Turgenev
Analysis: What's Up With the Ending?
The book ends with its most vital character dead. Bazarov, for all his faults, is the energetic force that keeps the book alive. It is his nihilistic thought that first creates a rift between Nikolai Petrovich and his son. It is his impudence so infuriates Pavel Petrovich that he challenges him to a duel. It is his magnetic presence that gains him and Arkady access to the world of the Odintsovs. Without Bazarov, Arkady might just return to Maryino and settle happily on his family farm. In other words, without Bazarov, there is no story worth telling.
It makes sense, then, that when Bazarov dies the story ends. Yet it is important to note that the book does not simply run out of steam when he disappears. Bazarov, the young man who would renounce everything that is not useful, is wrong about a great many things. He begins to realize this on his deathbed when he tells Anna Sergeyevna, "Russia needs me... No, clearly she doesn't. And who is needed? The cobbler's needed, the tailor's need, the butcher" (27.147). In short, what Bazarov realizes is that nihilists are not useful, that Russia does not need him. It is on this melancholy note that he ends his life. Since he never believed in romance, he never made any effort to kiss Anna Sergeyevna. Now he asks her for a kiss before he dies: "Breathe on the dying flame and let it go out" (27.151). The fragile kiss (she doesn't want to get typhus) is the touch of everything that Bazarov denied himself, of everything that he missed during his short life.
After surveying the futures of the other characters, the author settles again at the grave of Bazarov. His parents come to pray and weep for their son, who died too young and who believed that his death was in vain. Yet the author refuses to accept Bazarov's fatalism. His sympathy is with the parents who, by loving their son, keep his memory alive. In effect, the author refutes Bazarov to keep his legacy alive. Speaking of the parents, he says,
But are those prayers of theirs, those tears, all fruitless? Is their love, their hallowed selfless love, not omnipotent? Oh yes! However passionate, sinful and rebellious the heart hidden in the tomb, the flowers growing over it peep at us serenely with their innocent eyes; they speak to us not only of eternal peace, of the vast repose of 'indifferent' nature: they tell us, too, of everlasting reconciliation and of life which has no end. (28.12)
A novel that so carefully depicts the rise of nihilism refuses to end on a nihilistic note. Instead it ends with a line of affirmation, an affirmation of human values that will survive every ideological revolution, every revolt of sons against their fathers.

JWC TO JEANNIE WELSH ; 18 August 1842; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18420818-JWC-JW-01; CL 15: 28-30
[18 August 1842]
Babbie of my affections
Thanks to thee for the nice long clever letters! which supply for me the place of John Sterlings powerful telescope— A Babbie that really shines in narration!— every thing, from Sterlings Champagne1 down to Helens sore leg, is set before me with a most praiseworthy distinctness and "not without" (as Carlyle would say) a certain sly sarcasm, peculiar to the family— Continue to keep me up with the current state of my household—it is the least you can do in return for the generous confidence I repose in you!— I do not mean in the matter of allowing you to run up and down stairs, tiring your life out, and to take on yourself the charge of a sore leg—but I mean in having left you alone with my husband, without having first possessed myself of that seductive dressing gown!— He writes to me the other day "little Jeannie comes down in the morning in a kind of shawl dressing gown, almost with the air of a little wife to make coffee to me!" Oh yes! I know very well how like a little wife she looks!—and if there were a spark of jealousy in my disposition I would have taken out my seat in the next Bury coach, immediately after reading that sentence—and returned in all haste to put a check to such dangerous illusions.
The weather is the hottest I have known for years—and the upper part of this house, being of a cottage make, pretty nearly uninhabitable— For the last two or three days I have not crossed the threshhold till after dinner—even then there would be no going out without a carriage—but the evening drives are delicious—the country about would not please Carlyle—there is a want of hills—but for me, born in flat East Lothian, it is quite satisfactory—and there is such an air of sufficiency and peace all over it, that one hears of these insurrections so near, as tidings from another world— I am SURE the poor people here are not ill off—one can see it in their faces and in the pride they take in ornamenting their bits of thatched cottages—nevertheless there has been calamity here also— One farmer had a stockyard, value twelve hundred pounds, burnt to the ground the other night, and another had his barn burnt to the ground—neither misfortunes were willful however—the latter was caused by a boy's setting fire to a wasp's nest the former by having stacked the grain before it was ready for it—there has been a willful fire further off—on some nobleman's place—I forget where—but all the walls at Bury were stuck over one night with placards on which I read the words pardon—£50 reward—fire
We go to Bury tonight again—and in time I hope to post this letter there.
Our life is the most quiet and regular heart could desire—the drive and the game at chess are the excitements of the day, the last indeed is becoming rather too exciting— It is long since I laid aside my chess-playing honours—and that anybody has been welcome to beat me— I was sure that I could never play well again, because I had lost all interest in the game, and could not conceive myself recovering the interest—but one night soon after I came, Mr Buller having beaten me with his usual facility, said in the most provokingly slighting tone "I do wish you could improve a little"! and at this all my past triumphs stood up before me—and somehow I felt myself injured— He should see—I was determined that I could play if I liked—and so I beat him the next game and the next—and he has had sore [threshing?] of his brains for any game he has won from me since— His astonishment is very amusing—but such laborious play is not a good preparation for sleep— Among our excitements I should not have omitted to mention the wasps! We have no flies here—but in their stead multitudinous wasps, that take all the liberties of flies, congregate on the spoonful of appletart one is putting into ones mouth, drown in the cream jug and the wine decanter! and keep up a continual attack on the public tranquillity—at this moment while I write they are buzzing all about me and lighting on my hands, as if I were made of sugar.
I was so sorry to have missed old Mr Dobie—but I must see him before he goes—I hope you were both very kind to him—and that you will tell me when he returns,— I feel somehow as if he were come from the place to which she2 is gone, instead of only from the place she has left— Alas alas, he—nobody can bring me any news from her more; but only the Angel of death—in that must be all my hope henceforward—hope full of terror too—for how unfit I am to die—but dear babbie I was not meaning to sadden you with any talk of this sort— God be with you dear.—and believe me always your affectionate
Jane C
Tell Carlyle I have on his collar and cuffs today—and cannot sufficiently admire myself in them— I do wish Helen were better—poor little cinderella that you are

From the Super Mario Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search
Retrieved from "http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Sobarribad&oldid=1987862"
The Sobarribad is an enemy in Super Paper Mario encountered in Castle Bleck. Its name is a pun on the words "so very bad", and is derived from its method of protection, a barrier. It is a white version of the Barribad, and the enemies look and behave similarly to the Yux of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. The Sobarribad projects an impenetrable barrier around itself when Mario, Princess Peach, Bowser, or Luigi approaches, and shoots rings of energy at them. However, by flipping to 3D, the player can go around the barrier, switch to 2D, and defeat it. An alternative is to use pixl Barry, which will reflect the energy back at them and destroys them. Another way to defeat the Sobarribad is to use Fleep to daze it for a while, then attack it before it snaps out of its dizziness. Or the player can use Bowser to breathe fire. The last known method of defeating it is to use Slim and walk towards the Sobarribad as the force field fades, at that point which the Sobarribad will form the force field around the player and itself, allowing the player to defeat it inside it's own force field.

You dream of being a pilot, and now you're ready for your dream to take flight. Embark on a new path toward working for an airline, in corporate or general aviation, or in the military.
Embry-Riddle will teach you all of the core flight fundamentals you need to be a pilot and the essential leadership skills to be a captain.
Bachelor of Science in Aeronautical Science
Students at our Prescott Campus have fixed-wing or rotary options and can compete to become part of the school's nationally renowned flight team.
Bachelor of Science in Aeronautical Science
The Daytona Beach Campus is adjacent to Daytona Beach International Airport (DAB), which provides on-campus access to the Flight Line for our impressive fleet of aircraft. The College of Aviation features laboratories that simulate all elements of an air transportation system.
Are you looking for a graduate degree in this field?
If you choose to, you can start flying right away at ERAU. Our fleet includes Diamond DA42s, Cessna 172s, Piper Arrows, and a Super Decathlon for upset training. With pleasant weather year-round, both our Daytona Beach and Prescott campuses provide optimum flight conditions. The Prescott campus also offers Robinson helicopters, R-22 and R-44 models, for those who aspire to command rotary-wing aircraft.
When you've completed your ratings, including the flight instructor licenses, you will have the opportunity to build flight hours as an upperclassman flight instructor, possibly working for Embry-Riddle.
Doing so will put you on a faster track toward earning your Restricted Airline Transport Pilot (R-ATP) license. To further your opportunities in aviation, you can also earn your FAA Aircraft Dispatcher Certification.
The Aeronautical Science program is accredited by the Aviation Accreditation Board International (AABI).
Supported by an active Industrial Advisory Board, the College of Aviation connects you to a network of major and regional air carriers and corporate aviation companies throughout the United States. In fact, about 20 percent of pilots employed by U.S. airlines have studied at ERAU.
Aeronautical Science graduates are in-demand candidates for careers in the following professions and with the following industry leaders:
Lauren Clarke completed both her B.S. in Aeronautical Science and A.S. in Aviation Maintenance Science with Airframe and Powerplant certifications. The summer after she graduated, Clarke was offered a job at Airtec while she was completing her internship as a mechanic with Cape Air in Hyannis, MA.
Jessica Panzer graduated from ERAU with her B.S. in Aeronautical Science and then became a flight instructor. She went on to fly corporate and charter flights in a King Air 350 for ACM Aviation in San Jose, CA, and became an aerobatic pilot for Stars of Tomorrow and TeamUSAero.

I don't know anyone in St Tammany parish, I just happened to read this follow-up article about the deputies that rescued the boy that had his arm bitten off by an alligator. This happened a couple of days ago. Mods- I posted it here in the leo discussion, as a salute and reminder of these guys hustling to help someone, under bad circumstances.
Deputy tells of the moments following gator attack
By Marcelle Hanemann
St. Tammany News
On Thursday morning, while St. Tammany Parish Sheriffs Detective Ben Godwin was preparing for a follow-up visit to his doctor before returning to duty, he explained why he needed medical clearance and what had happened the prior afternoon in Slidell.
I was in the subdivision doing an extra patrol in the area for drug-related activities when I overheard the dispatcher telling patrol units about a 911 call regarding a kid who got his arm bitten of by an alligator. It was a kid. We had to go, Godwin said.
Godwin and his partner, Detective Gordon Summerlin, headed toward the pond and were flagged down by a New Orleans Police Department officer who lives in the subdivision. He told them they would have to take the levee to get to the pond.
But when we got there, we got there blocked by a chain link fence and the kid was about a mile and a half in, said Godwin. All we could do was run. I grabbed a towel I had in my unit, and me and Gordon took off running. I made it to the kid first. He was out by the pond where the alligator attacked.
I pulled him to the top of the levee. He had bad lacerations on his neck, and his arm was just gone. I wrapped him in the towel and ran back with him.
The child, Devin Funck, was remarkably calm, said Godwin. The detectives worked to keep him that way, and to keep him alive.
I kept the towel over him, said Godwin. I didnt want him to see his arm. He talked about paint ball. And he said he was thirsty. I told him I had a Mountain Dew back in the unit, but he couldnt have all of it because I needed some, too.
Godwin kept running through the heat of the afternoon. Funck started to turn pale.
I kept him talking, said Godwin. If hes talking hes breathing. And he was thinking. He was making sense.
When they were part way back from the pond, some help arrived.
A civilian on a mule, a four-wheeler, was coming toward us as I was running back, said Godwin. He picked us up and drove us the rest of the way to where the fire department and medical personnel were.
When we made it back, medical personnel took the kid, and the next thing I knew I woke up in the emergency room.
The detective suffered a heat stroke. His partner ended up in the emergency room as well. Summerlin was dehydrated.
We had all our gear on attack vests, bullet proof vests, thick clothes, said Godwin. We didnt really think about it. It was a kid. If we had thought about it we would have known better.
The men were in a hurry to rescue a child in great need. And they got to him before the gator returned. The 11-foot-long alligator was later caught and killed, and the boys arm was recovered Wednesday evening. But doctors were not able to reattach the limb.

We are continuously working to minimize the environmental impacts of our products. Through our commitment to responsible sourcing, packaging, manufacturing and transportation of our products, we have continued to achieve growth in our business while creating a more positive global impact. Our goals, such as helping to achieve zero net deforestation and reaching 100% sustainably sourced seafood, are prime examples of strategies that benefit the environment while ensuring future supply security for our private brand products.
When we analyze products' environmental impact, we consider every stage of the value chain. We look at impacts on waste (from production, packaging, retail and consumption), greenhouse gas emissions, water, biodiversity and land use. As we move toward our 2020 ambition, we aim to lessen those impacts across all our private brand product ranges. In 2012, we started to involve private brand suppliers in the analysis process. We will continue to work with them to identify product improvements that address the environmental impacts we have targeted.
Some of our private brand ranges are already dedicated to meeting the highest standards in environmental performance. These include "Eco" and "Bio" in Belgium, "Terra Leaf" and "Bio" in Greece, "Bio" in Bulgaria, Indonesia, Serbia and Romania, and "Nature's Place" in the U.S. These clearly defined product ranges carry a distinct label or brand based on specific environmental standards (such as certified organic, or the EU eco-label).
EUR 174 million, or 3% of our sales from private brand products with a sustainable label*
*Sustainable labels based on both environmental and social criteria
Key global commodities rely heavily on new plantations in the tropics, which are often created by cutting down high conservation value rainforest to produce palm oil, soy or timber for pulp and paper. These actions contribute to climate change, creating 20% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. They also destroy important habitats. Delhaize Group's objective is to discontinue sourcing products and ingredients from regions that are being deforested and to form industry partnerships that build broader transparency and sustainability within the supply chain. Our deforestation objective is linked to The Consumer Goods Forum's (CGF) board resolution on deforestation, and we are aligned with the retailers and manufacturers working with the CGF to stop sourcing products that are linked to deforestation.
The Consumer Goods Forum Board Resolution on Deforestation
"As the Board of The Consumer Goods Forum we pledge to mobilise resources within our respective businesses to help achieve zero net deforestation by 2020.
We will achieve this both by individual company initiatives and by working collectively in partnership with governments and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). Together we will develop specific, time bound and cost effective action plans for the different challenges in sourcing commodities like palm oil, soya, beef, paper and board in a sustainable fashion. We will also work with other stakeholders - NGOs, Development Banks, Governments, etc. - to create funding mechanisms and other practical schemes that will incentivise and assist forested countries to conserve their natural assets and enable them to achieve the goal of zero net deforestation, whilst at the same time meeting their goals for economic development."
For more information :
This year, our primary achievement in moving toward zero net deforestation was to increase transparency in our sourcing of palm oil. This allows us to see which of our products include palm oil and where the oil is coming from. So far, Delhaize Belgium has evaluated more than 80% of its private brand food products, documenting usage of palm oil and assessing its sustainability. Delhaize Belgium looked for opportunities to replace palm oil with sunflower oil or rapeseed oil. When substitution is not possible, and when the quality of the product demands the use of palm oil, Delhaize Belgium requires suppliers to use certified sustainable palm oil. Read more about Delhaize Belgium's work in our case study, "In Pursuit of Sustainable Palm Oil."Case Study
We have also built strategic partnerships with suppliers and industry stakeholders in order to access critical supply chain information. In 2012, Delhaize Group joined the Roundtable for Responsible Soy (RTRS), an international collaboration dedicated to developing and certifying sustainable soy. Through our support of RTRS and our work with private brand suppliers to understand soy in our supply chain, we aim to increase use of sustainable soy in our supply chain.
In 2012, we began analyzing our sourcing of other commodities, such as paper, that are linked to global deforestation through a new partnership with The Forest Trust (TFT). We started the partnership with a focus on Indonesia, which has been significantly impacted by deforestation. The first step was mapping the supply chain for palm oil and paper products that may have links to deforestation. As we move toward our 2020 objective of zero net deforestation, we will continue mapping our supply chain and adopting sourcing policies and practices that ensure our private brand products do not contribute to global deforestation.
Sustainable Seafood
Demand for seafood continues to grow in all markets, but many global fisheries and aquaculture operations are not managed sustainably. We want all the seafood we sell to be sustainably sourced and are committed to using sourcing policies that support healthy, sustainable fisheries for generations to come. As a result, we have articulated a Delhaize Group Vision for Sustainable Seafood: Working together with our suppliers, customers and expert organizations we are committed to ensuring that seafood is harvested at levels that maintain their availability for both present and future generations.
Both Delhaize America and Delhaize Belgium have developed sustainable seafood policies to guide their work in this area. We are proud to report that both operating companies achieved sustainable seafood milestones in 2012—one of our most significant sustainable sourcing successes. Effective March 31, 2012, all fresh, frozen and canned seafood products sold in Delhaize America stores have been assessed against Delhaize America's sustainable seafood policy (Food Lion, Hannaford, Sweetbay) and are fully traceable to their wild fishery or farm of origin.
And from the end of 2012 onward, Delhaize Belgium stores only offer sustainably caught fresh fish. Delhaize Belgium also aspires to sustainably source all of its frozen and canned fish, in accordance with its sustainable seafood policy (Delhaize Belgique, Delhaize België). As of November 2012, 80% of frozen fish was already sustainably sourced. In 2013, Delhaize Belgium aims to reach 100% sustainable frozen fish. Read more about these operating companies' achievements in sustainable seafood in our case study, "Two Sound Approaches to Sustainable Seafood".Case Study
Delhaize America: all fresh, frozen and canned seafood products are assessed against the company's Sustainable Seafood Policy (and are fully traceable to their wild fishery or farm of origin)
Delhaize Belgium: 100% of fresh seafood products are sustainably sourced, as defined by the company's Sustainable Seafood Policy
Includes both private brands and national brands products
Our operating companies in Southeast Europe and Indonesia are at the beginning of their journeys toward sustainable seafood. For example, Mega Image in Romania aims to improve its ability to trace seafood ingredients and encourage the adoption of sustainable fishing practices. In 2012, it took an important step forward, surveying its private label fish suppliers to evaluate sourcing throughout the supply chain.
Collaborations with scientific partners, including the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), the Sustainable Fisheries Partnership, Stichting De Noordzee and the Gulf of Maine Research Institute, have been critical in our efforts to develop sustainable seafood harvest protocols.

On Tuesdays, the mp3, instrumental track, and lyrics/chords for the newest songs are available to Listen & Learn Plus members for download. In addition, members are always welcome to request existing Listen & Learn songs and new song topics.
When I write holiday songs, I try to be mindful of the traditions and customs that are celebrated during this time of year. As a child, my family celebrated both Christmas and Hanukkah (since my dad's side of the family was Jewish), so I learned at an early age to appreciate all that this season has to offer.
And while I've written many a song focusing solely on Christmas, Lights, Lights, Lights is not one of them. Many of the winter holidays involve lights of some sort, and we see them in both our homes and throughout our communities at this time of year. I think this song provides the opportunity to start a conversation about the different lights we see, and how they relate to our celebrations.
Get immediate access to this, plus over 100 other songs, lead sheets, visual aides, and valuable resources for only $9.99 per month…learn more about becoming a member or just subscribe below. You won't be disappointed!

CCP Games Allows PS3 and PS Vita Gamers to Play in EVE Online
Earlier this week, CCP Games announced a new cross-platform game at E3 entitled "Dust 514." The gritty first-person shooter (FPS) allows Sony PlayStation 3 and PS Vita handheld gamers to play in the EVE Online universe, which is a massively multiplayer online sci-fi game (MMO) that allows PC/Mac gamers to build starships.
Dust players are terrestrial mercenaries that are contracted to fight on the planets that EVE pilots can only see from space. Typical grunt objectives are to capture or destroy ground targets, and this can be done with a multitude of weapons and armored vehicles that can be purchased in the game marketplace.
Players can also form their own corporations since the core of the game will hinge on guild socialization and the economics of jointly acquiring the resources needed to build and equip characters and build empires. "There is no magic in this game so things don't just appear out of nothing," said Torfi Frans Olafsson, creative director for EVE Online. "Everything has a cost, including the creation of clones."
In many first-person shooting games, players will "respawn," meaning they'll eventually come back to life after they being killed in the game. In Dust 514 and EVE, characters are cloned after death, so you have a finite supply of manufactured bodies that have to be purchased, produced and transported to your facilities. So every loss in the game has a painful economic cost, which tends to discourage reckless behavior like suicide charges.
The game play itself looks similar to Activision's "Call of Duty" franchise, complete with assault rifles, holosights and shell shock—though Dust does include Sony "Move" controller support. The demo showed players in powered-armor descending in landing craft onto scorched battlefields. Aside from the other-worldly setting, combat looks typical FPS with blood and sweat splattered across the faceplate. Even the magazine-fed projectile weapons looked very present day, though Olafsson said laser and plasma rifles are available to those that can afford them.
At the end of the demo, a ground-based energy weapon destroys a spacecraft in orbit. "That's just for show," said Atli Már Sveinsson, creative director at CCP. Dust 514 is an MMO hybrid so doesn't allow Dust players to fully move in and out of the EVE universe yet. But being able to destroy a ship in orbit is the kind of interactivity that CCP is striving for. For now, Dust players can communicate and strike agreements with EVE players and the outcomes of battles can influence the global balance of power.
EVE online costs $14.95 per month to play but Dust 514 has gone the free-to-play micro-transaction route, meaning that there are no subscriber fees. All revenue is generated from the in-game sale of virtual goods like weapons and equipment.
