This Employment Agreement involves
Title: TEMPORARY EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
Governing Law: New York Date: 1/10/2011
Industry: Misc. Financial Services Sector: Financial
Exhibit 10.1
This TEMPORARY EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is dated as of December 1, 2010 by and between Harbinger Group Inc. (the "Company") and Richard Hagerup ("Employee") (each a "Party" and together, the "Parties").
WHEREAS, the Parties wish to establish the terms of the Employee's temporary at-will employment with the Company as set forth in this Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual considerations herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the Parties agree as follows:
1. Termination of Other Agreements . All agreements by and between the Company and Employee, or between the Company and any third party with respect to Employee, if any, are hereby terminated and superseded and replaced in their entirety by this Agreement.
2. Start Date . Employee's employment under this Agreement with the Company shall commence on December 1, 2010 ("Start Date"). Although Employee and the Company anticipate that Employee's employment will cease on June 1, 2010, Employee's employment shall remain at all times "at will," meaning that either the Employee or the Company may end the employment relationship at any time for any reason or for no reason whatsoever and without notice.
3. Title; Duties; Hours of Work . Employee's title will be Interim Chief Accounting Officer, subject to any necessary corporate approvals, or such other title as the Company may determine from time to time. During Employee's employment, Employee will devote substantially all of Employee's full working time and attention to the performance of Employee's duties and to the promotion of the business interests of the Company and its affiliates. Without limiting the foregoing, Employee shall perform such hours of work as are necessary to fulfill his job function as determined by the Company, including abiding by the Company's formal hours of work from 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM, Eastern Time, Monday through Friday, subject to modification based on the Company's business needs in its sole discretion.
4. Principal Location of Employment . Employee's principal location of employment shall be at such locations as designated from time to time by the Company.
5. Compensation .
a. Employee's bi-weekly pay will be $9,230.77 (Nine Thousand Two Hundred Thirty Dollars and Seventy-Seven Cents), payable in accordance with the regular payroll practices of the Company ("Base Pay"). Employee will not be eligible to receive overtime pay because he is exempt from the state and federal overtime pay requirements as a professional.
b. The Company is authorized to deduct or cause to be deducted from any payment or benefit under this Agreement all taxes and amounts required or authorized by law to be withheld.
6. Benefits . As a temporary employee, Employee will not be eligible to participate in any of the Company's benefits plans.
7. Representations and Warranties . Employee represents and warrants that Employee is not a party to or subject to any restrictive covenants, legal restrictions or other agreements in favor of any entity or person which would in any way preclude, inhibit, impair or limit Employee's ability to perform Employee's obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, non-competition
agreements, non-solicitation agreements or confidentiality agreements, and Employee's employment with the Company does not violate the terms of any agreement to which Employee is a party. Employee further represents and warrants that Employee will not bring to the Company, without prior written permission or license, any data, information, programs, models or intellectual property that either belongs to any other person or firm or as to which Employee's use or possession is restricted.
8. Employment Relationship . Employee's employment is temporary and "at will." This Agreement is not a contract of employment for any specific period of time, and Employee's employment may be terminated by Employee or by the Company at any time for any reason or no reason whatsoever, provided, however, that if the Company terminates Employee's employment other than for Cause (as defined below) with less than 30 days' notice, the Company shall continue to pay the Employee's salary through the 30-day period (the "Notice Period"). For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Cause" shall mean (as determined by the Company in good faith) that Employee has (i) engaged in conduct amounting to fraud or dishonesty against the Company or any affiliate; (ii) engaged in unethical conduct related to his services under this Agreement; (iii) committed a violation of a securities law, rule or regulation of the United States, any state or subdivision therein, or any other applicable jurisdiction, or of the Company's compliance policies and procedures; (iv) acted in a negligent manner or committed willful misconduct in the performance of his duties hereunder; (v) been under the influence of drugs or alcohol while on the premises of the Company or its affiliates; or (vi) committed a breach or violation of the terms of this Agreement or otherwise failed to perform the services hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
9. Travel Expenses . The Company will reimburse Employee for all actual, reasonable and direct travel expenses incurred by Employee in the performance of his duties, including travel to New York, New York from Miami, Florida.
10. Termination . Upon termination of Employee's employment with the Company for any reason or for no reason, Employee's rights to receive compensation shall cease, except for any accrued but unpaid Base Pay and, if the Company terminates Employee's employment without Cause and upon less than 30 days' notice, Base Pay through the Notice Period.
11. Confidential Information . Employee acknowledges that during Employee's employment Employee will have access to certain Confidential Information (as defined below) belonging to the Company, its affiliates, and/or other entities affiliated with Philip A. Falcone, which derives value from being not generally known to the public or to other persons or entities who can obtain value from

In my particular situation, I have couple of solutions to my problem. I want to find out which one is more feasible. In this case, I can also achieve my goal by returning a JSON object from my server side code, however, I do not know how it is done and what is the best way of doing it.
First off, I don't need a full aspx page as I only need a response returned from code. So, do I use web services? handler? or is there any other specific way you people do this?
Is this solution feasible? do I build the JSON string using the StringBuilder class and inject that string into the target aspx page? are there any precautions? or things that I should be aware of?
I appreciate your ideas.
Suppose I have a JSON object in my userlist.aspx page. which then I use it with jQuery...
{"menu": {
"id": "color1",
"value": "color",
"popup": {
"menuitem": [
{"value": "Red"},
{"value": "Green"},
{"value": "Yellow"}
}} // example taken from the json.org/example page
now when I want to add a new menuitem from my aspx page, what do I do... I think this way my question is more specific... Lets assume I create a new string in my aspx code, as such "{"value": "Blue"}. Now how do I inject this into the already existing itemlist in the target page? or is this not the correct approach to this kind of situation? if not how else can it be achieved? Also if I wanted to fire a jquery event when a new item is added to this list, how is this achieved?
------------UPDATE 2 on 26 August 2015 ------------ By the time I asked this question, the way I was approaching the problem was in another aspect. I am now more proficcient in the subject and can gladly choose the most voted answer as the accepted answer since the approach to this question is clearly should not include the already exsiting JSON and output a new one from the code as @DavGarcia also suggests.

Wasn't Adas the original Sith King? Graush came after Adas.
And Malgus went into the Unknown Regions? Thought that was Revan.
You don't have to rewrite canon, just retell canon. Enough of the events of the various timeline entries have been told to give a basic story in videos. For example, the only thing new in BW's entry on The Great Hyperspace War was that the current Sith Emperor was alive and serving in that war. Or for Exar Kun's Sith War, that the entombed Sith Lords of Korriban favored Exar Kun but denied the Sith Emperor for unknown reasons. A retelling plus a tiny thread on the tail end that ties to the game.
Sorry for the skepticism. A while back someone cross-posted on several TOR forums about "a mysterious transmission" that only turned out to be stealth advertising for a guild. Since then, I've been a bit leery of hidden possible guild spam.
If you stuck around and chatted beyond just promoting your guild and stuff, that'd be cool.

I may be the total last person in the world to see this. But while looking up something to order on the typically dependable menupages.com site, I just noticed, they have done an overhaul and I must say, what a nice overhaul it is indeed. Pretty nice type, everything is just cleaner and more streamlined and I still get to do myself a great service and order some of New York's finest and un-finest. Have a look see if you have not done so already.
I don't know how many times I've been on a project and either a). the client doesn't provide their logo or b). you need several other logos to complete a project but never receive the logos before the deadline. Redrawing it again in Illustrator is certainly an option, but I'd like to share a website that I use when I'm in this situation. Perhaps some of you know about this resource already, but have forgotten the URL. Brands of the World is a huge database of vector .eps files of every type of logo you can imagine. You can download the logos for free and use them on your project. No more late nights redrawing client logos. Enjoy.

I have a deep dark secret to admit…I've been a PC user for all of my life and only just recently purchased my first Mac! People always made fun of me for being a designer who used a PC…so when it came to purchasing a new computer, I caved in and I'm now a proud owner of a MacBook Pro. Details »
I was looking around on my bookshelf and I wanted to share one of my little gems I found a while ago while backpacking through Japan a few years back. Perhaps you've already seen this book, but if you haven't I highly recommend you check it out, although it might be hard to find as it seems to be sold out everywhere. I have seen it pop up again from time to time so if you want to own your own copy don't give up hope. There is however a nice Flickr documentation of the book here to hold you over in the meantime. Enjoy.
Coming out of the Netherlands with some boom and some nice environments and branding work is Alvin Chan. Check out some of what appears to be a pretty extensive work list. I'm most intrigued by the environments.
Some pretty interesting branded temporary spaces.
A Lou Dorfsmanesque wall of type? Yep.
Multi-purpose packaging from ciclus.com. Wine container to lamp! There are some other recycled uses of products on their site as well.
I thought with it being the holiday season, I'd get away with firing up a cheeky post primarily with the intention of sharing with fellow huggers (and patron readers of course) some of my festive, drunken antics. Details »
Mr. Pagan sent this link earlier to me today and I walk away very impressed. Having not seen this work before nor been familiar with this, Moving Brands, well, they have me moved. Details »
Knowing these guys from long time back in Huddersfield UK, Adam from SouthSouthWest dropped me line letting me know about a new site update and this limited edition poster they have launched. Nice.
After being reeled in by this wonderfully apt, but also equally simple and understated identity for Julique I had the pleasure of coming across this agency coming out of Austrailia called Landini Associates, who have recently been featured in the sweetly-designed Artichoke Magazine. I thought that would warrant them a mention on GH! Landini Associates were responsible for the brand strategy, packaging and global retail look for Julique. The company was launched in 1993 by brit-founder Mark Landini whose holistic outlook on branding and modernist approach (K-I-S-S; Keep it Simple Stupid) to design have steered this multi-national, as well as multi-disciplined company to global recognition. I'm sorry to say there isn't much in the way to do the full diversity of their portfolio on the website, but if you ever get chance to pick up a copy of Artichoke and read the article in full – I would. Here are a couple of those delightful spreads:

When one door closes, sometimes another will open. That's the case for the Mid-American Conference this postseason.
The MAC recently found itself down a bowl tie-in after the demise of the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl and the creation of the Quick Lane Bowl. Replacing the game in Detroit is a new bowl game that will pit a MAC team against an opponent from Conference USA.
The new game will be played on Dec. 24 in Nassau, Bahamas. The bowl announced its title sponsor on Tuesday, Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, and the game will be called the Popeyes Bahamas Bowl.
The inaugural game will be played at Thomas A. Robinson National Stadium and will be broadcast on ESPN.
The MAC was part of the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl and before that the Motor City Bowl since its original inception in 1997. In the first game, Mississippi defeated Marshall 34-31 in front of 43,340 fans at the Pontiac Silverdome. In the final game, Pittsburgh downed Bowling Green 30-27 in front of 26,259 fans at Ford Field. That game was the second lowest attendance in the game's 17-year history. All-time, the MAC went 7-10 in the game.

I bought this dress thinking it would be more like an 8, but it is a definite normal 10. I love it, was going to just get it taken in, but found a different used dress that fit me better and then missed the deadline to return this one.
I have to say, I wasn't sure the quality I would get for this price, but I was very pleasantly surprised when it arrived! If you're looking for something elegant that looks a lot nicer than the price you'll pay for it, this is the one!

Flat carved disks called bi have been found in China dating back to the Neolithic period. They're believed to symbolize a connection with the heavens, and they symbolized high rank. More recently, the design on the reverse of the medals given at the 2008 Beijing Olympics was based on bi disks. Here bi disks of smooth black onyx are paired with faceted carnelian and linked with silver-plated wires.

Not Worth The Price

Comments about Carnelian and Onyx Chinese Bi Necklace:
I liked the colors and the style shown in the catalog picture. However when I actually saw this necklace I was very disappointed in the quality and workmanship. I wish they had used little brass rings or something else to connect the stones instead of crudely twisted wire which is sharp and could snag on clothing. It is very cheaply made. Definitely not worth the money at all. I returned it.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

A really beautiful necklace!
By Nicole
from Naples FL
The photo does not do this necklace justice! What look like simply orange beads are actually a wide range of multi-colored stones that make this piece a multi-dimensional pallet of colors.

the home fires burning,

from fighting for their country: older men
found their pre-war jobs had been taken and they
had to fight once more – this time
to earn a living. The families, the wives and
the children, to whom the men returned, had to
adjust too, having learned to carry on with their
everyday lives with no man about the house.
In France after the First World War there were
an estimated 600,000 widows and 700,000 orphans.
In addition to the human losses the advent of
modern methods of warfare used on a large scale
meant that there was also massive material damage.

1,154 miles of canals
Over 3,000 miles of railway track
don't, by any stretch of the imagination,
convey the impact on individuals and their communities
when loved ones have been killed. However they
are a starting point to demonstrate the enormity
of the cost for some people. Presenting statistics
graphically can help to illustrate the facts clearly.
Look at the following case studies from around
the Commonwealth. Each of these tells the story
of a family or community greatly affected by loss
during either the First or Second World War.
Now you are going to look at your local war memorial,
cemetery or churchyard and see what you can find
out about the impact of war on your own community.
Perhaps you were thinking all this happened a
long time ago and asking yourself why anyone bothers?
The First World War ended nearly ninety years
ago and the Second World War sixty years ago.
It is a very long time but the families and friends
of those who died do not forget. Read through
the following recollections which may help us
to see why remembering is as important today as
it ever was.
Click on the portraits

maintaining the cemeteries, headstones and
memorials to those who died in the two world
wars, the CWGC provide a fitting focus for
the families and friends left behind with
only their memories and their sadness. Equally,
the CWGC honours those people who have no
one left to remember them.

Republicans are getting all sloppy sentimental over memories of George W. Bush's presidency, even printing up t-shirts saying how they miss him so, so much - and that should tell you all you need to know about the phenomenon of short and selective memories. Come on - this is a guy whose approval rating when he left office was at 22%, which means that even most Republicans disapproved of him then.
So, we can acknowledge that Republicans have a wildly falsely positive memory of George W. - but liberals and Dems, we've got a problem of our own around that whole short memory thing. Let's talk about Hillary Clinton.
Maybe it's super convenient right now for some Dems to forget some things about Hillary Clinton, seeing as how she's the leading name for the 2016 presidential nominee and all (though 6 in 10 liberal Democrats want her to face a primary challenge). She's tempting, true enough: She'd be the first female President, have a second round living in the White House, after trailing hubby Bill into it way back when, she's an intelligent and accomplished woman, by most standards. And yet, there's still that something, that lurking negative that won't go away, the memory of her nasty primary fight with President Obama, her below-the-belt insults during debates, the dirty underbelly that mars the gleam and shine of the Clintons' public persona.
Think about it. There have been rumors, persisting today, that Clinton supporters gave birth to the "birther" movement, led by a group called Party Unity My Ass (PUMAs), "a splinter group of hard-core Hillary Clinton supporters who did not want to give up the ghost after the bitter 50-state Bataan Death March to the 2008 Democratic nomination," and a Texas Clinton supporter, Linda Starr.
And, when the rubber met the road, and then-candidate Obama was being accused of being a Muslim (they said it like it was a bad thing), Clinton was not outspoken against the "Obama's a Muslim" rumor. Granted, that sort of rumor is typical of a dirty political campaign - and, in this instance, particularly against a black presidential candidate - but let's not forget that the rumor was only tenuously denied by Clinton. In fact, in a 60 Minutes interview, Clinton was unwilling to staunchly defend Obama against those rumors. Her denials were, at best, tepid:
"You don't believe that Senator Obama's a Muslim?" Kroft asked Sen. Clinton.
"Of course not. I mean, that, you know, there is no basis for that. I take him on the basis of what he says. And, you know, there isn't any reason to doubt that," she replied.
"You said you'd take Senator Obama at his word that he's not…a Muslim. You don't believe that he's…," Kroft said.
"No. No, there is nothing to base that on. As far as I know," she said.
"It's just scurrilous…?" Kroft inquired.
"Look, I have been the target of so many ridiculous rumors, that I have a great deal of sympathy for anybody who gets, you know, smeared with the kind of rumors that go on all the time," Clinton said.
"As far as I know" is something of a caveat, is it not? Clinton, crafty and cagey, knew what she was doing with her non-denial denial - and some of us haven't forgotten.
Let's at least be honest, face some facts. First off, Clinton as a feminist isn't any sort of icon; after all, she stood by her man while referring to her husband's Oval Office paramour, Monica Lewinsky, as a "narcissistic loony tune." While President Obama was on the streets as a community organizer in Chicago, Hillary was on the board of directors of Wal-Mart. And although Hillary defends herself for representing a child sexual predator (correctly, it would seem, as everyone is entitled to a defense), during the 2008 primary she lambasted President Obama for, while a practicing attorney in Chicago, representing Tony Rezko - a man she referred to as a "slum-landlord" - in his housing developments.
What has always seemed clear to some of us is that Hillary Clinton has always had skin-deep loyalties and a shifty moral center. Right and wrong don't loom large; instead, the barometer is what's best for Hillary. Competent and capable aren't the only qualifications for a presidential candidate; personal character, however inconvenient it may be to acknowledge when all you want is to see Hillary Clinton run in 2016, really does matter.

This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.
The 32-bit and 64-bit Windows FAQ states:
Thus make a back-up if you want to and then reinstall, there is no other feasible way...
The 32bit to 64bit conversion makes fundamental changes to the way your system runs that can't be done on a running system. You will have to re-install windows and everything that goes along with that.
As a rule, switching from 32 bit to 64 bit, or vise versa, cannot be done as an in-place upgrade. Even if it's the same operating system. You need to back up your files and programs and do the whole install.

Utilities Poised to Brighten U.S. Solar Market
By Jennifer Kho of Earth2Tech on December 5, 2009
It looks like utilities are poised to drive the U.S. solar market in coming years, based on a new report from Emerging Energy Research that predicts utilities will add 21.5 GW of photovoltaic capacity by 2020, up from only 77 MW of utility-driven PV projects in operation today. The report released Thursday confirms the trend we noted back in October, and the projections are huge considering that the United States made up only 360 MW of demand last year, according to Solarbuzz.
U.S. utilities already have announced more than 4.8 GW of large PV projects in the works, according to the Emerging Energy Research report. The firm forecasts that utilities will play a key role in shaping the changing landscape of solar power and estimates the U.S. PV market – led by utility activity – will grow from 2 GW in 2011 to a whopping 12 GW in 2015. That compares to a worldwide solar market of 5.8 GW in 2008, according to Photon Consulting's Solar Annual 2009. Photon projects the global PV market will reach 8.6 GW this year and 44.9 GW in 2011, meaning that the U.S. would make up more than a quarter of the world market in 2011 if Emerging Energy Research's forecasts are on target, up from about 6 percent last year.
Unsurprisingly, Emerging Energy Research expects state renewable portfolio standards — which require utilities to get varying percentages of their electricity from renewable sources — to be the primary driver for the boost. California, for example, aims to get 33 percent of its electricity from renewables by 2020 (utilities are expected to miss the previous target of 20 percent by 2010). Municipal utility Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, as well as all three of the state's investor-owned electric utilities — Pacific Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison and San Diego Gas & Electric — have announced PV initiatives. All together, those utility projects make up approximately 75 percent of the U.S. photovoltaic pipeline, according to the report.

While the goal of Sarasota County's flood control project was simple—reroute stormwater around homes and into creeks—it produced an unexpected, but welcome, byproduct: luring birds back to the wildlife-barren land.
Now called The Celery Fields, the site is a regional destination for bird watchers. People drive for miles to watch the migrations. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has declared it a bird sanctuary, and it's recorded on the Florida Trail.
"The initial objective was to provide for flood protection," says Theresa Connor, PE, general manager of Sarasota County Environmental Services. "But the other benefits include enhanced water quality, a wildlife sanctuary, and passive recreation for people to enjoy for years to come."
To enhance this new and unexpected habitat, the county's parks and recreation department partnered with the local chapter of the Audubon Society to add walking trails, picnic areas, and signs identifying the flora and fauna. This phase is being funded by donations to the Sarasota Audubon Society.
When completed, the site will be managed by the county's stormwater, public works, and parks and recreation divisions.

text: BARDSTOWN, Ky. — Things will certainly be a bit livelier tonight at Mr. Tubs in Bardstown, Ky. That laundry will be the first stop on Matthew Fogle's six-state "Spring Cleaning Tour ´08." Fogle, an acoustic rock musician, plans on entertaining coin laundry customers in Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, Illinois and Tennessee from March 24 until April 17.While this laundry concert tour is a first, Fogle says it's been on his mind for about a year. "There's a Laundromat right near my apartment, and when I passed by one day, I just thought it would be a fun idea," Fogle says. "I knew I had to wait until spring and call it the Spring Cleaning Tour!"Fogle will perform at 16 laundries, concluding the tour at a second Bardstown store. "I looked for the creative-named laundries, and also the laundries that were most enthused about the idea. [Many owners] were enthused about the idea. But honestly, I have no idea where I'm going, ha ha."Fogle has been playing music for more than 11 years and recently went solo after playing lead guitar for several rock bands since 1998. Last year, he released "On the Brink," an 11-track CD with all original compositions.What type of reception does he expect from laundry customers? "I have no honest clue. In Bardstown, I'll be fine because my friends and family are likely to show up, but out of state, especially, I'm hoping customers will enjoy the short burst of acoustic entertainment."For full tour information, go to http://www.matthewfoglemusic.com.

How can you make your law firm website stand out to visitors?
That's a good question. After all, you're dealing with potential clients who view hundreds of marketing messages each day. Today's increasingly savvy and choosy consumers can be quick to judge your law firm on the quality of its site (particularly if it's of the old school, static variety).
While there are a range of tactics you can use, animation can offer a robust solution. When done correctly, multimedia elements such as interactive slides, themes, photos, video and the like can:
- capture visitor attention
- energize an otherwise vanilla site
- make a lasting first impression on Web visitors
- showcase your law firm's practice areas and fortify its brand
The key word here is "correctly." Animation can be disastrous if applied in the wrong way (think of the sites you've seen with enough neon and blinking elements to rival the Las Vegas skyline). And not all animation packages work the same — particularly when it comes to mobile devices.
Yes, it can be enough to make your head throb. Take heart, however: A little basic website animation knowledge can help you make informed decisions.
Adobe Flash
For years, the mainstay platform has been Adobe Flash, which can be used to create individual animations or even entire websites. It remains extremely popular — by some estimates, 95 percent of all Web users have the technology installed on their computers.
But while Flash is still a workhorse, its usage is in decline. The software's detractors have criticized it for everything from excessive bandwidth demands to intermittent security issues. It also can't be read by search engines — something that can be problematic for websites built on the platform. Another point to note: Apple's mobile products don't support Flash. The upshot: Flash isn't viewable on iPads or iPhones, which eliminates a huge portion of the rapidly growing mobile Web market.
The most common Flash alternative is jQuery. Like Flash, it can be used to create animations, video and audio. Unlike Flash, however, users don't need to have it installed on their computers. It also works seamlessly on all major Web browsers. And sites built with jQuery can be indexed by search engines. Finally, it allows animations to work on all mobile devices, including iPads and iPhones. Given the crucial nature of SEO and the mobile market, the last two attributes make jQuery worth considering.
What's next?
While jQuery has emerged as today's best animation option, the tech world continues to move at light speed. Case in point: The Web community is now abuzz over HTML5, a platform that allows websites to display animations and multimedia elements such as audio and video. Even Adobe has embraced the change — the company has given up on creating Flash products for mobile devices and is now developing HTML5-based programs.
In short, Flash is on its way out, jQuery is here now and HTML5 is on its way in. That's where we stand today. Of course, it could all look different in 12 months. Yes, the pace can feel dizzying, but staying informed is one of the most important marketing moves you can make – if you want to stay visible to potential clients.

Deeplinks Blog posts about Free Speech
This article was co-written with EFF volunteer, Ana María Acosta.
Este artículo ha sido co-escrito por Ana María Acosta, voluntaria en EFF.
UPDATE: We're happy to report that this controversial provision was removed from the 2016 Intelligence Authorization bill.
The government of Kazakhstan has pursued one of its fiercest critics, the newspaper Respublika, with lawsuits and threats for fifteen years. By 2012, it seemed it had finally achieved its aim: after repeated prosecutions for "inciting social discord" and "spreading extremism," the paper's founder was in exile, and its staff forced to cease printing and distributing its print edition within the country. But despite blocks, bans, and overwhelming distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, Respublika's reporting lives on through its websites, which continue to critically report on the country's affairs and provide a forum for discussion from the relative safety of servers hosted in the United States.
[Update 7/30/2015: The German authorities have now confirmed that Netzpolitik is being investigated under suspicion of treason. See our follow-up post for more details.]

First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes baby with the baby carriage . . . Kids are gonna have to find themselves a new schoolyard song to sing.
The New York Times reports a recent analysis of government data shows more than 50 percent of births to women younger than 30 in the United States are to unwed mothers.
In 2009, 59 percent of overall births were to married women, the newspaper adds, with college graduates "overwhelmingly" choosing to wed before they have kids.
"Marriage has become a luxury good," Frank Furstenberg, a University of Pennsylvania sociologist, tells the Times.
Does that mean we can pick one up at Tiffany?

The Stampede edged the new-look Rattlers 3-2 Friday night before a crowd of 2,747 at Cal Farley Coliseum behind a strong performance by all-star goalie Matt Barnes, who held on in the final seconds as Central Texas won its seventh in a row and handed Amarillo its eighth consecutive loss.
The Stampede, the Western Professional Hockey League leader in wins with 28, owned a 3-0 lead before newly-acquired Amarillo forward Jeff Mancini scored a pair of third-period goals in less than a minute to pull the Rattlers to within a goal at the 16:11 mark.
Central Texas forward Brad Shaver picked up what could have been a killer minor penalty at the 18:13 mark, putting the Rattlers on the power play.
Abrams pulled goalie Trevor Amundrud with less than a minute, but Barnes piped down between the pipes after shutting out the Rattlers for roughly 30 minutes.
"No one left early tonight," said Central Texas coach Todd Lalonde as the Stampede improved to 16-1-2 all-time versus the Rattlers. "The only thing we had over Amarillo tonight was the score at the end of the game. Their team played passionate and with a lot more zip than they did a week ago when we were in here (in a 6-1 Stampede win Dec. 26)."
Because of injuries and trades, the Rattlers dressed only 12 skaters Friday night. Only five of the 14 players in the lineup survived the trading frenzy, a six-trade, 12-player purge in a span of 60 hours from Tuesday through Thursday.
Abrams, who could make a stockbroker jealous with his trading ability, was busy again Friday morning, trading forward Tom Gomes to the Tupelo T-Rex for defensemen Jeff Pawluk and Darren McLean. Goaltender John Hultberg was sent to the Austin IceBats for future considerations.
Despite the turnover, Abrams praised his team for fighting back against Central Texas.
"I thought we played with our hearts on our sleeves," said Abrams, whose squad dropped to 14-21-2. "The last 10 minutes we had a little bit in our tanks, so we cranked it up a little bit. It almost worked, but that was a pretty good hockey team we were playing against."
That was evident during the first two periods.
Stampede forward Gerald Tallaire scored the first of his two goals on a power-play opportunity that beat Amundrud stick-side for a 1-0 lead at the 2:16 mark of the first period. Tallaire scored again on a one-timer from the slot for a 2-0 lead at the 1:04 mark of the second period.
Central Texas, which outshot Amarillo 12-4 in the second period, appeared to put the game away when forward Chris Johnston's slap-shot from the left circle bounced in off the post for a 3-0 lead at the 8:47 mark.
The Rattlers finally got to Barnes, who finished with 28 saves, in the third period.
"Somehow I was lucky enough for the puck to hit the post or a defenseman," Barnes said. "The last 10 minutes or so, the puck just started going in."
Mancini, playing in his first game with Amarillo after a trade Thursday with San Angelo, scored on a shot from the right circle at the 15:14 mark of the third period.
Things got interesting when Mancini added a power-play goal at the 16:11 mark. Barnes said he was expecting Mancini to deflect the puck in the other direction.
"We're still trying to work on our communication a little bit, and we started to click there at the end," Mancini said. "That was a positive for this team for sure. Kevin told us after the first period that we were only down one goal to the best team in the league.
"We have half a season left and it is time for us to start jelling as a team."

http://www.ponies.me.uk/maps/osmap.html, particularly around where I am
living right now (Canterbury). The maps are around 70 years old.
I noticed a number of stations and halts which have since disappeared,
including a halt at Westbere and a station at Upstreet (between Sturry
and Minster) on the Ashford and Ramsgate Branch. Does anyone know when
these stations closed?
The maps are particularly interesting - they show the now-closed
Canterbury and Whitsable (Crab and Winkle) Line and the Elham Valley
Line between Canterbury West and Folkestone.
Another thing that caught my eye was a mass of sidings at Ebbsfleet with
"Train Ferry Berths" labelled nearby. What wais the train ferry and
where did it go to (presumably somewhere on the continent)?
Also, there appears to be a halt just east of Folkestone at the Warren -
what was the point of this halt, seeing as it's not really conveniently
situated? I gather it closed fairly recently.
when the colliery closed (1970s?). The station at Upstreet was Grove Ferry
Upstreet, opened with the line in 1846 and closed in 1966, when the ferry
was replaced by a bridge..
The port at Ebbsfleet (near Sandwich, not to be confused with Ebbsfleet
International near Northfleet) was Richborough Port, developed in WW1 for
the war effort. After the war, the port installations continued to moulder
undisturbed, even through WW2, though there were proposals to use the port
for coal exports, which even resulted in a branch line off the East Kent
Light being built in 1925-28. Since WW2 the site of Richborough Port has

Folkestone Warren Halt first opened in the Summer of 1886, when the SER
built a bridge across the line and 'put in a gate to encourage picnic
traffic.' Lord Radnor, the local landowner, made threats of legal action
trespass, and the halt closed at the end of that Summer. The halt was
open (Summer only) from 1908-1915 and again 1923-1939, though I too can't
see any point, unless there was 'picnic traffic'. The platforms and
nameboards were in situ at least in the 1980s (I haven't travelled the

the danger of landslips, most notoriously in 1915 when the Halt moved 53

opposite bank of the Stour, next to the Grove Ferry Inn, which is portrayed
on the model.
The remains of the halt at Folkestone Warren, along with a siding, remained
into the 1990s. At a lower level, there was a concrete batching plant which
had it's own narrow gauge system to carry the mixed concrete around the huge
concrete apron which serves as a 'beach'- this last saw use towards the end
of the 1980s, I believe.
There was another staff halt at Shakespere Cliff, which served a small group
of railway-owned cottages. The only other access to these was via some steps
cut into the cliff- latterly, the handrail posts on these steps were of
narrow-gauge rail, salvaged from the 1880s (?) Channel Tunnel works.

The Walker Art Center is one of the five major modern art museums in the United States, alongside the likes of MoMA and The Guggenheim. Their multidisciplinary space in downtown Minneapolis allows them to host art galleries, live theater and special events. Regular gallery admission between the hours of 11:00am and 5:00pm is $14 for adults and $9 for students everyday, except Mondays when they're closed.
Or you can see it all for free, if you know what you're doing.
First of all, Target sponsors "Free Thursday Nights" for the public every Thursday evening. The museum stays open four hours beyond its regular closing time. During those four extra hours, between 5:00pm and 9:00pm, admission for everyone is free.
Additionally, admission is free all day during the first Saturday of each month.
To get the most out of your Walker Art Center experience, choose a nice Thursday (or first Saturday) and explore the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden across the street, which is always free. After you've seen the iconic "Spoonbridge and Cherry" and other impressive outdoor sculpture installations, head inside for a free evening of art and culture.
Then pat yourself on the back; you just saw some of the best modern art in the world for zero dollars.

So two Irishmen are traveling to Australia. Before they leave home, one of their dads gives them both a bit of advice: "You watch them Aussie cab drivers. They'll rob you blind. Don't you go paying them what they ask. You haggle." At the Sydney airport, the Irishmen catch a cab to their hotel. When they reach their destination, the cabbie says, "That'll be twenty dollars, lads." "Oh no you don't! My dad warned me about you.

Released: Feb 17th, 2014
Running Time: 217 Min.
Director: James Deen
Company: James Deen Productions
Distribution Companies: Evil Angel
DVD Extras: Biography(ies), Bonus Scenes, Cumshot Recap, Still Gallery(ies), Trailer(s)
Cast: Jasmine Tame, Hope Howell, Toni Ribas, Janice Griffith, Lexi Love, Scarlett Pain, James Deen, Anikka Albrite
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Gonzo
Handsome porn stud James Deen has become a crossover hit with mainstream ladies that don't even watch porn. But the adult industry's savvy girls know that the real action is over at this creative young director's home, where they can let their inner freak go wild. In "James Deen's Sex Tapes: James' House," six insatiable sluts visit his L.A. estate and treat his famous cock to their special talents. Shot on the fly without any elaborate sets or special lighting, this is real-life eroticism—no acting allowed. As his private "Sex Tapes" reveal, there's always room for raw lust when James Deen is in the house!
Pity poor James Deen. It's bad enough that he has this great big house in L.A.—now he has to put up with six sexy industry gals stopping by at their convenience for a piece of him in this two-disc treat.
Occasionally, Deen needs a bit of help—like when young Janice Griffith gives him total anal access and, fortunately, Toni Ribas arrives to help him share the holes in what winds up being a fine double penetration. This is the wildest scene and the only anal, but Griffith is incredible—so much so that James felt compelled to do an extra one-on-one scene with her that appears as an extra.
Lexi Love gets captured by Deen's hidden camera and is ravished, standing, well before they make it to any place softer. She spies the camera and goes into sexual overdrive—to his delight.
A great thing about this is that the girls are there because they want to do him, and as such he is a sexual playground for their lust. This is especially true of Jasmine Tame, who likes to ride Deen, and a few of his frequent screen partners like Scarlett Pain and others.
This is all unscripted and unrehearsed pure gonzo and occasional POV. Whatever happens, happens. No acting. No fancy lighting. Just, basically, Deen and his wench of the moment. And it is good.

Visualizing Device Utilization
For folks who run large datacenters or server-farms, systems monitoring is a typical boring day-to-day thing. However, there are mountains of data available that are typically forgotten or lost due to a severe lack of good analysis and visualization tools. Brendan Gregg has a great writeup of alternative ways to visualize real-time performance of multiple parameters across multiple systems.
For any given device type (CPUs, disks, network interfaces), and any number of devices (from a single device to a cloud of servers), we'd like to identify the following:
- single or multiple devices at 100% utilization
- average, minimum and maximum device utilization
- device utilization balance (tight or loose distribution)
- time-based characteristics
By including the time domain, we can identify whether utilization is steady or changing, and various finer details. These may include short bursts of high utilization, where it is useful to know the length of the bursts and the interval between them.

Transitional Care (Sub-Acute Care)
Transitional Care
For many patients, a hospital visit is only one aspect of a total treatment plan. Those recovering from a traumatic injury, serious illness or complex surgery, or older adults dealing with chronic health issues, may require transitional care to ensure the best possible recovery.
The Medicare/Medicaid program, Swing Bed, is a transitional care program.
Transitional care is designed to enhance the patients' and caregivers' ability to manage their care and helps patients avoid complications. East Morgan County Hospital initiates these efforts during the hospital stay and continues after discharge.
The team includes various members of the hospital staff and can include:
- Nursing
- Physician
- Physical therapists
- Occupational therapists
- Speech therapists
- Respiratory therapists
- Nutritionist
- Care coordinators
Transitional care helps plan proper post-discharge care. Whether the patient moves to a different facility, requires home care or begins outpatient rehabilitation, this important planning is accomplished with the active engagement of patients and their family.
East Morgan County Hospital is happy to coordinate the continuity of care in collaboration with each patient's physician.
Sub-acute care
Patients who no longer require hospitalization but are not yet ready to return home have the option of sub-acute care. East Morgan County Hospital provides both skilled nursing care and comprehensive rehabilitation services.
Skilled nursing provides 24-hour care by licensed nurses. Rehabilitation, also known as outpatient therapy, provides physical therapy and related services to those recovering from surgery or injury. It can also reduce the impact of chronic conditions, build strength and optimize mobility and function.
For more information on our sub-acute program, please call (970) 842-6236.

Tea Party criticism is not germane
After reading articles in the Pilot's editorial section for 11 years, I've grown accustomed to the feeling of the political pundits that are obviously liberal or admit to liberalism as their Utopia.
On Jan. 2 a letter by someone had a lot of hate but very little thought as to how the average Curry County citizen would accept their words.
Tea party events I've attended are full of at least 200 people that behave and show nothing but class. The letter writer could be a female as the writer intentionally does not identify their sex.
My husband is the only writer to the Pilot that admits to being a tea-party conservative and you will be surprised to learn that he doesn't attend church service. "Ultra religious" is out of bounds to call one individual you've never met, leave alone millions.
My husband Clay has an openly homosexual nephew that hangs out with his own kind but he knows he is always welcome at our house. The word "homo-boobus" is unique, at least to my dictionary.
Clay played 12 years in the major leagues with the Phillies and Orioles during the civil rights era and half of the teammates were African American. They ate together, traveled and slept in hotels that would accept his teammates. Dick Allen of the Phillies and wife Wilma still exchange Christmas cards with the Dalrymples.
Chris Dodd and Barney Frank had more responsibility of our economy collapsing than G.W. Bush ever dreamed of. Liberals like yourself would keep voting them back in office except this time they both gave up the ghost on their own accord.
Your tea party criticism (is not) germane and because of that, everything else you feel about our county can be put aside as false.

Men's good deed deserves kudos
To the two nice men who so graciously helped putting on my spare tire in exchange of the useless flat one at the Fred Meyer parking lot on Wednesday afternoon, January 25, in the rain: My heartfelt Thank You!
You were the Angels at a time of great need. You stopped in your tracks and took the time and your talents and energy to get me and my car going again. I felt so blessed.
Also my deepest condolences go to the one of these kind gentlemen who had just lost his mother. He said to me, "She wanted me to help you."
May God bless you two so helpful men and return to you this most appreciated good deed.

Police chief there to serve and protect
On Jan. 29, my girlfriend and I were lunching at a local restaurant. When I became choked on a piece of meat, my friend tried to help me and so did the wait staff but to no avail.
At that point my friend began to pray for God's help for my survival. Just then a gentleman stepped up to help using the Heimlich maneuver. He was experienced in this, focused, and determined that I would not die. Because of his willingness to help and God's grace, I am alive and well today. When I asked him his name he told me that he was Doug. Then I had to ask Doug who? He told me that he was Crescent City Police Chief Doug Plack.
To say I am thankful is an understatement. I am so very thankful and appreciative for his kindness and his kind manner. He was off duty from his job, but became on duty for me.
The Bible says that God is a very present help in the time of trouble and He proved that to be true. Doug, you will always be special in my heart and I will be praying for you and your family to be safe and well.
Thanks be to God and hail to the chief – Crescent City Police Chief Douglas Plack.

Dog-gone canines are at it again
We all go to Freddy's if only to pick up a few things or do our grocery shopping.
When we go, of course, we always bring our two poodle doggies, Floyd and Wally, with us, and yes, of course, with the windows rolled down so they would be comfortable.
Some days we take our time and others we hurry but we always try to park our car where we will remember it to be. Every time, without fail, we can never find it.
We think we are good parents to our two boys, but we don't understand why they move and drive the car when we are in the store. They had to have moved it, because we always know where we parked. They do not have a poodle driving permit to do such a thing, and when we finally get to the car or, should I say, to find the car, they always look so innocent. Wally is always lying in the back window and Floyd of course sleeping on the front seat.
We dare to think where they went while we were gone. Our thoughts are: Are they running around town … who are they seeing … what kind of company are they keeping. We already had to put a stop with them from using the computer. Some of those websites just are not appropriate for them to look at. One was "MiMi the Sexy Poodle Dog." All and all they are good boys; we will have to have a human to doggy talk with them.
Remember to spay and neuter your pets.

'No hurry in Curry' is a fact of life here
In response to Lilly Mecham's letter, "No hurry in Curry?" (Pilot, Jan. 28): You've been here five years and just now have noticed the trend here?
Many elders do live here, honey; older folks don't move, think or react in a hurry. When specialized medical care is practically nonexistent here, being in a hurry should be the least of your worries. Let's add that motto to the new Brookings welcome sign.

County abandoning the animal shelter
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sure looks like the county has opted to dump the "Curry County" Animal Shelter.
In a time of fiscal crisis, departments should typically expect drastic cuts, in hopes of keeping the county afloat. In the case of the animal shelter, these cuts happened long ago. With a scant staff of 1.2 persons, and a precious very few volunteers, it's truly amazing how much is accomplished, and all without complaint. That doesn't mean this is done without a cost.
The cost, in this case, is a workload that would crush most of us. Have you ever tried doing five things and being in five places at once? The physical and mental stress are more than most of us could imagine, and yet, this is all done for the love and care for those who can't care for themselves.
How do we reward such acts? We, as a county, allow the failing facility to be held together by blood, sweat, baling wire and duct tape. Then we barrage them with abandoned, neglected pets, constant neighborhood squabbles, and countless other demands of time and resources, all falling on a staff of one, to service the entire county. What's the final blow here ?
Again, correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears that the shelter, the workers and the animals are simply being abandoned by this county.

Includes laboratory notebooks, correspondence, reports, and project summaries.
Samuel Ruben was born on July 14, 1900, in Harrison, New Jersey. He developed an interest in electrochemistry at a young age; however, he had minimal formal training in the area. Though he attended college briefly, he withdrew after a short period, as the stress was making him physically ill. Nevertheless, he continued with home study and experimentation and soon gained enough confidence to seek employment in a laboratory setting.
From 1918 to 1921 Ruben worked for the Electrochemical Products Laboratory. Beginning in 1921 he helped found a laboratory in New Rochelle, New York, which eventually became known as Ruben Laboratories, with Ruben as president for much of his life. Ruben worked on numerous projects related to the field of electrochemistry and became a well-recognized scientist and inventor. He invented the mercury primary cell, the dry electrolyte condenser, the rectifier tube, and flexible wire with ceramic insulation. He also helped invent the cardio-pacemaker by developing an appropriate battery for the device. He worked extensively with the Duracell Company on such projects as alkaline dry batteries and is credited with revolutionizing battery technology. His notable inventions earned him the Inventor of the Year Award in 1965 from the Research Institute at George Washington University. Ruben was an American Chemical Society Fellow and a member of the Electrochemical Society. He passed away in 1988.
