WASHINGTON (AP) – Americans are of two minds about the economy in the midst of an elec-tion race that largely hinges on the issue. They are strikingly pessimistic about the national econ-omy yet comparatively upbeat about their own financial circumstances.
Ray's Take When surveyed, many baby boomers say they plan to do some kind of work in retirement. The reality is that we are living longer, healthier lives than our parents and grandparents. When we reach the traditional retirement age, we probably have a lot of years of living (and spending) left. What to do with those years is changing with the retirement of the boomer generation.
Guard Ray McCallum appeared in six games (two starts) with the Grizzlies after signing his first 10-day contract with the team on March 12 and has averaged 8.5 points, 1.7 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 24.3 minutes. Now, the Grizzlies have signed McCallum to a second 10-day deal.

Paris is open for travel.
What once was an obvious statement now comes with a question mark for some travelers. After the Nov. 13 terrorist attacks that saw 129 killed and hundreds more wounded at several locations throughout Paris, canceling travel plans to the City of Light might seem prudent.
Tennessee's football team may be headed into a perfect storm Saturday night at Missouri.
It's been an emotional whirlwind the last two weeks for the Tigers (5-5, 1-5 SEC), and they will have plenty of motivation against the Vols (6-4, 3-3).
I miss Steve Spurrier.
It won't be the same without Spurrier coaching South Carolina when Tennessee (4-4, 2-3 SEC) plays host to the Gamecocks (3-5, 1-5) on Saturday.
It wasn't the same this week without Spurrier throwing a jab or two at UT leading up to the game.
So here we are back at a familiar place: LSU vs. Alabama in a game that goes a long way toward determining the SEC West champion. And by extension, in all probability, the SEC champion. (Sorry Florida, but in this corner, we're not true believers yet.)
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Two years after Tennessee proclaimed itself the fastest-improving state for education in the country, that growth has leveled off, according to a national report that concluded the state has seen little to no change in fourth- and eighth-grade math and reading scores over the last two years.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Sales of existing U.S. homes slipped in April due mainly to relatively few listings and rising prices, providing evidence of the housing sector's uneven recovery.
The National Association of Realtors said Thursday that sales of existing homes fell 3.3 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.04 million. April marked the second straight month of the sales rate topping 5 million homes. Purchases have recovered from a disappointing 2014 because strong job growth and low mortgage rates have generated more would-be buyers.

Guess which NBA team this player is talking about: "It's a playoff team. It's a team that's going to play hard on every possession. Offensively and defensively they pay attention to executing." That sounds a lot like what many opposing players passing through FedExForum this season have said about the Grizzlies. But it was Tony Allen talking about the Atlanta Hawks – after the Grizzlies defeated the Eastern Conference's top team 94-88 here last Sunday night.
DALLAS (AP) – Leaders of United and Southwest gave an upbeat forecast for 2015 that combined strong travel demand and cheaper fuel. Airline stocks soared on Thursday.

KNOXVILLE – It doesn't get much easier for the University of Tennessee's football team.
The Sept. 20 open date has come and gone. UT's coaches and players had ample time to digest and dissect details of the 34-10 loss to No. 4-ranked Oklahoma on Sept. 13 and a week to prepare for a challenge just as formidable.
For generations, the athletic director's chair received one aging coach after another. It was just the way the college athletics world turned.
After many years, or even decades, the coach would ascend to a bigger office away from the sidelines and guide the program, sharing with young coaches the mistakes he had already made, and hoping at the end of each sports season he was counting more wins than losses.

NEW YORK (AP) – This holiday season, Americans may not spend their green unless they see more red.
Despite signs that the economy is improving, big store chains like Wal-Mart and Kohl's don't expect Americans to have much holiday shopping cheer unless they see bold, red signs that offer huge discounts. As a result, shoppers are seeing big sales events earlier and more often than in previous holiday seasons.

The mortgage market is starting to get interesting, in a manner of speaking. Earlier this month, interest rates for mortgages rose in what was described as the largest one-day jump in at least 10 years, according to Mortgage News Daily. That in large part stemmed from the Federal Reserve, which has been snatching up $85 billion worth of mortgage-backed securities a month.

GOODLETTSVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Dollar General Corp. said Tuesday that its fiscal third-quarter net income rose 21 percent, helped by strong demand for candy and snacks.

President Barack Obama carried Shelby County in unofficial Nov. 6 election returns as his Republican challenger Mitt Romney took the state's 11 electoral votes.
Voter turnout in the most popular election cycle among Shelby County voters was 61.9 percent, about the same percentage as four years ago. But the 371,256 voters is fewer than 2008 when more than 400,000 Shelby County voters cast ballots. The percentage is about the same because there are fewer registered voters in Shelby County than there were four years ago after a purge by election officials.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Regions Financial Corp. on Tuesday posted sharply higher third-quarter earnings, as the regional bank set aside less cash to cover loan losses. But its shares fell sharply in morning trading after the results showed record-low interest rates cut into interest income from loan and deposits.

WASHINGTON (AP) – The middle class is receiving less of America's total income, declining to its smallest share in decades as median wages stagnate in the economic doldrums and wealth concentrates at the top.
NEW YORK (AP) – It's not just in your head. Mondays really are the worst.
Monday is the only day the stock market is more likely to fall than to rise. The Dow Jones industrial average has been down 10 of the past 11 Mondays. And the two worst days in market history are both known as Black Monday.

The evening started with such a great vibe. FedExForum public address announcer Rick Trotter just mentioned the visiting Los Angeles Lakers and sweet boos rained down onto the court.
MEMPHIS (AP) – It took two overtime periods, but the Los Angeles Lakers eventually made sure the Memphis Grizzlies stayed behind them in the Western Conference standings.
Andrew Bynum had a season-high 37 points and 16 rebounds, Kobe Bryant scored 22 of his 34 points after halftime, and the Lakers beat Memphis 116-111 in double overtime on Tuesday night.
Before halftime it was clear that the University of Memphis would be cutting down the nets at FedExForum as champions of the Conference USA Tournament. Again, their defense and athleticism – one and the same for the Tigers – was too much for an overwhelmed opponent as they defeated Marshall, 83-57, on Saturday for their seventh straight win and third consecutive blowout in the tournament.
From the Tigers' perspective, what wasn't there to like about a resounding 83-52 victory over Central Florida Friday evening in the semifinals of the Conference USA Tournament at FedExForum?
The Tigers led by as many as 38 points near game's end and their defense rendered the Knights helpless. Coach Josh Pastner was able to find minutes for Adonis Thomas, playing just his second game since returning from an ankle injury. And Pastner was able to empty his bench. The closest thing to a negative? Forgotten forward Stan Simpson collecting three fouls in his five minutes of playing time.
MEMPHIS (AP) – Tony Allen was determined to stop Rockets leading scorer Kevin Martin.
MEMPHIS (AP) – Tony Parker appreciates San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich's conservation plan.

Consistency of High Frequency Preference Among Expert Listeners
Consistency is one of the most fundamental skills of the recording professional. This is particularly important in tasks that involve the shaping of timbre. A study was designed that allows expert listeners to control a simple shelving equalizer that alters the high-frequency content of high-quality stereo program material over repeated trials. Fifteen trained subjects performed the test. Results indicate that there was an expectedly large range of preference for high frequency content. This was, however, also accompanied by a somewhat large variance. Unlike previous studies, consistency of high frequency preference was shown to be less related to the subjects' experience than other balancing tasks.

Coffee shops are great places to explore your creativity and come up with new ideas. A little caffeine, some time to play, and the materials at hand can go a long way. With a bit of imagination you can use this construction method to build many other kinds of forms, and this basic component can be combined with other elements to create larger and more impressive pieces. The baristas don't tend to mind, especially if you tip generously.
Build a basic triangular element with
3 coffee stirrers and 3 straw pieces. Push 2 coffee stirrers, pressed flat against each other, into the end of each of the straws to connect 3 coffee stirrers together.

Livestock show set for later this month
Published: Sunday, January 16, 2011 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 14, 2011 at 11:23 a.m.
The Terrebonne 4-H Livestock Show and Sale is scheduled for Jan. 29 at the Houma-Terrebonne Civic Center, 346 Civic Center Blvd.
Local 4-H members will exhibit premium-fed livestock.
The show and sale is part of the LSU AgCenter's program and the sale is sponsored by the Houma-Terrebonne Chamber of Commerce in conjunction with the Fear No Evil Bull Riding Challenge.
The livestock show is free to the public and is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. The 4-H livestock sale is scheduled for 1 p.m. Buyers can register at the buyer luncheon scheduled for noon, with the sale beginning at 1 p.m.
Local 4-H members have been raising their animals for more than nine months learning responsibility, leadership and marketing in the 4-H program. These animals can be purchased as a donation and will help 4-H members recoup expenses incurred in the project.
Officials with the Terrebonne Parish 4-H program want to thank past buyers. The 4-H members hope to again have a successful show and sale with the help from the community.
Fertilize Citrus Trees
Citrus trees do respond to annual fertility applications to maintain the health and vigor of the tree and to produce quality fruit.
Homeowners can fertilize their citrus trees in late January or early February. The general recommendation rates are to apply 1½ pounds of 8-8-8 or 13-13-13 per year of tree age up to 12 years. A 1-year-old tree gets 1.5 pounds of 8-8-8 and a 5-year-old tree would get 5 pounds to 7.5 pounds of 8-8-8.
Some growers like to split it up and apply half in late January and the other half in May.
Others apply a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer to bearing trees — four years or older — in late May or early June. The LSU AgCenter's Louisiana Home Citrus Production Guide, Publication 1234, is an excellent resource for the home-citrus producer.
Planting Irish Potatoes
Mid-January is the time to plant Irish potatoes. The LSU AgCenter's Master Gardeners are always out and about spreading the benefits of being outdoors and one way is a vegetable garden. Potatoes are a good choice and one in which kids can do very easily. You can make or buy a 4-by-4-foot or 6-by-6-foot raised bed area and have the kids plant in it. Work in a cup of 8-8-8 in the raised bed soil area. Cut seed potatoes a few days before planting. Be sure each seed piece has at least one eye or bud in it and place cut side down.
Plant seed pieces 10 inches to 15 inches apart. Water well when no rain and add ammonium nitrate when plants are 8 inches tall. Your kids will be able to harvest the potatoes between 90 to 120 days from planting and have fun growing them.
Question and Answer
Question: When is the time to prune back roses?
Answer: The last week in January in south Louisiana.
Question: How much should I cut them back?
Answer: Cut canes to about 24 inches from ground level and make the cut about one-quarter inch above a dormant bud or newly sprouted side shoot.
Question: What type of roses should be pruned now?
Answer: Hybrid tea and Grandiflora Roses. Also everblooming garden roses, landscape roses, such as Knock-Out roses, and floribunda roses.
Question: What roses should not be pruned back now?
Answer: Any roses that are not everblooming, including many climbing and rambling roses, such as Lady Banks, Dorothy Perkins and Blaze and some old garden varieties. These roses should be pruned in mid-summer after they have finished flowering. They also should not be pruned back hard each year like the modern bush roses.

Middle Eastern Lamb Salad With Spinach & Feta (Low Carb)
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 40 mins
A zesty, delicious combination of flavors. High protein & very low carb. For vegetarians you can just leave the lamb off the top and it's still a nice salad, but not so much a meal anymore.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1⁄2 leg of lamb, bone removed & butterflied (about 3 lbs)
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 dash thyme
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 2 garlic cloves, pressed
- 1⁄2 cup pecan pieces
- 4 ounces feta cheese (4/5 of a cup)
- 1⁄4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cups baby spinach leaves
- 1 cup mint leaf, coarsely chopped
- salt, to taste
- pepper, to taste
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Rub the lamb all over with the oil and then with the seasonings.
- Grill the lamb until medium-rare, turning once (internal temp 135F; about 40 minutes on an outdoor grill).
- On a baking sheet, toast the pecans in preheated oven for about 10 minutes.
- In a bowl, cobine the remaining ingredients and toss to mix.
- Sprinkle the pecans over the top of the tossed salad.
- Slice the lamb thin when it finishes cooking, then serve the salad with the grilled lamb on top.
Most Helpful
This makes a fantastic summer time meal. I used some leftover lamb that I sliced and sauteed lightly before topping the greens. I really enjoyed the combination of flavors.
What a great "hot day" meal. I used leg of lamb steaks, swapped the spinach for romaine lettuce and used cashews instead of pecans. Loved the spices on the lamb and the dressing on the greens. The mint adds such a nice finishing touch to this, make sure to use lots!
This is great and perfect for summer! I had no idea how to butterfly a leg of lamb, so mine took longer to cook than indicated but this salad was delicious. I also used walnuts instead of pecans, but I don't think that made much of a difference in this wonderful salad. Thanks for sharing this keeper - can't wait to make this again, only next time I'll ask the butcher to bone and butterfly the lamb for me!

I have a database in SQL Server with its data. I need change a part of some columns value in some conditions.
Imagine the value as "0010020001". 002 belongs to another value in my database and whenever I want to change it to 005, I must update the previous 10-digits code to "001005001".
Actually, I need to update just a part of columns value using
UPDATE statement. How can I do it (in this example)?

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Watching The Buffalo Sabres
by Paul on 11/18/13 at 11:50 AM ET
Comments (0)
via Alan Pergament of the Buffalo News,
As expected, the return of Ted Nolan behind the Buffalo Sabres bench also brought a return to strong TV ratings for the National Hockey League team.
The Sabres' home victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs Friday night had a 10.3 rating on MSG, which was about 65 percent higher than the 6.1 rating the team has been averaging this season.
The Sabres' road loss to Toronto Saturday night had a 7.9 rating on MSG, which was still more than 25 percent higher than the season average and even higher than that for Saturday games, which tend to have lower viewership because more people are out than during the week.

When Jeff Alt (trail name: Wrongfoot) first decided to hike the 2,160-mile Appalachian Trail, he intended to do it alone. As it turned out, several hundred others walked alongside him. Hiking the AT was a longtime personal goal of Alt's, but as he began to plan his trip he realized that he wanted his effort to somehow serve a greater purpose. So he decided to share the experience by turning his adventure into a fundraiser for the Sunshine Home, a facility in Maumee, Ohio that cares for 850 developmentally disabled residents, including his brother, Aaron, who has cerebral palsy. In the seven months leading up to his walk, Alt focused completely on fundraising and training, eventually raising $16,000 that allowed the home to buy much-needed communication devices, lifts, and walkers. He also inspired an annual fundraiser, Walk with Sunshine, and is contributing part of the proceeds of his book to the cause. In addition to finishing, Alt's goal once his feet hit the trail was to share the spirit for which I was walking with everyone he met, and this he certainly accomplished. In return, he learned a great deal about life from the colorful characters he encountered on the trail, while countless kind strangers offered trail magic in various forms, including food, lodging, and greatly appreciated laundry services. He also received overwhelming support from his family and the residents and staff of Sunshine Home, who helped him through quarter-sized blisters, fatigue, and even self-doubt during his 147-day trek. Charming, inspiring, and often funny, A Walk for Sunshine gives readers a good feel for both the logistics involved in undertaking such a journey and the culture of thru-hiking the AT. It's also a moving reminder that living your dream is one thing, but sharing it lets everyone live it with you.

Christian Dior to Fire Galliano Over Anti-Semitic Rant
Christian Dior SA said it will fire its head fashion designer John Galliano after a video emerged supporting claims that he uttered anti-semitic comments at people in a Paris cafe.
A video of Galliano saying "I love Hitler" was posted yesterday on the website of The Sun, a U.K. tabloid, showing the designer at the same cafe where he was arrested Feb. 24 following an accusation that he verbally attacked a couple with anti-semitic and racist statements.
"I condemn with the greatest firmness the statements by John Galliano," Maison Dior Couture Chief Executive Officer Sidney Toledano said in an e-mailed statement.
Gibraltar-born Galliano, 50, was to present his collection for Dior Couture on March 4 during Paris Fashion Week at the Rodin museum. Galliano joined Dior in 1996 from Givenchy, a subsidiary of LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SA. Dior has a stake in LVMH, the world's largest luxury-goods manufacturer, and LVMH Chief Executive Officer Bernard Arnault's Groupe Arnault SAS holds 69 percent of Christian Dior.
Dior "had to take a position, an ethical stand," said Concetta Lanciaux, head of Strategy Luxury Advisors in Paris. The show shouldn't be affected, she said. "None of these designers work in isolation. This is not some small company that does everything on the last night."
Stephane Zerbib, a lawyer for Galliano, declined to comment on the firing.
Defamation Complaint
The designer has filed a defamation complaint against the woman who claimed he'd insulted her on Feb. 24, Zerbib said. Galliano and the woman met with police yesterday to discuss their versions of what happened, he said.
"He responded, but he was never violent and never uttered anti-semitic statements," Zerbib said. Galliano insisted that he was attacked first, the lawyer said Feb. 27.
Dior had suspended Galliano the day after last week's arrest pending the outcome of the police investigation.
The "particularly odious character of the behavior and statements by John Galliano" in the video led the company to fire the designer rather than await the outcome of the police probe, Dior said in its statement.
While normally French labor law protects employees from being fired for acts in their private lives, this situation is different because the designer is the public face of the company, labor lawyers said.
Incarnation of Dior
"Galliano's case is very particular in that he incarnates Dior," said Yasmine Tarasewicz, a lawyer with Proskauer Rose in Paris.
Should Galliano prevail in the criminal investigation, that won't necessarily help him before France's labor courts because of his duty to uphold the brand's image, said Francoise Even, a lawyer with Shearman & Sterling in Paris.
"They're two autonomous procedures," Even said. "A public figure who represents a brand's image cannot carry on in public like this. It was damaging the company's image; he couldn't stay."
Oscar-winner Natalie Portman, who is a face for Parfums Christian Dior, wore another designer's products at the awards show Feb. 27, according to Women's Wear Daily. She also issued a statement disassociating herself from Galliano, according to WWD.
"Today things are not like they were 10 years ago," Lanciaux said. "Even creative geniuses have to follow some rules."

Digital receivers for future high-rate high-bandwidth communication systems will require large sampling rate. This is especially true for ultra-wideband (UWB) communications with impulse radio (IR) modulation. Due to high complexity and large power consumption, multibit high-rate analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is difficult to implement. Monobit receiver has been previously proposed to relax the need for high-rate ADC. In this paper, we derive optimal digital processing architecture for receivers based on monobit ADC with a certain over-sampling rate and the corresponding theoretically achievable performance. A practically appealing suboptimal iterative receiver is also proposed. Iterative decision-directed weight estimation, and small sample removal are distinctive features of the proposed detector. Numerical simulations show that compared with full resolution matched filter based receiver, the proposed low complexity monobit receiver incurs only 2 dB signal to noise ratio (SNR) loss in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and 3.5dB SNR loss in standard UWB fading channels.

HP OfficeJet 7500 e910 Scanner Lost Issues in Windows 7 x64
A client of mine has this all-in-one device that is constantly losing its ability to scan. the device is connected via USB and we have changed both the USB cable as well as tried different USB ports.
Printing has never been an issue; however, it seems after a few days, the scanner is no longer available.
Errors are received stating the scanner is not connected. Even the HP utility complains the both the WIA and TWAIN drivers are not working. We've tried turning the device on and off, rebooting the computer, unpluggin the USB cable and every combination between.
The only thing that works, temporarily, is to totally uninistall all of it's drivers, delete the printer, and then reinstall the very same drivers (latest from the product web page). It will then work for a few days and then back to square one.
Is this device just not x64 windows 7 friendly? Any help would be greatly appreciated as we've had to go through the above steps over 6 times now.
TIA for any advice.
Re: HP OfficeJet 7500 e910 Scanner Lost Issues in Windows 7 x64
Hi JamesBarrett,
You may like to check whether there is any program such as, antivirus or firewall etc. blocking the sanner. For examples, if possible, switch off the antivirus and see it the scanner would work.
If it still doesnt work, please kindly collect the detailed user enviroment information and contact service and supports...
contact number varid by countries & products in the folloing list,

I take it this was never really resolved? I have the same issues on a Windows XP SP3 32-bit system. Un-installing and re-installing the drivers seems to fix the issue.

Swansea City condemned Louis van Gaal to defeat in his first English Premier League game as Manchester United manager yesterday, while Aaron Ramsey scored a stoppage-time winner for Arsenal.
It was van Gaal's first competitive match at United, but his new side retained many failings from last season - when they finished seventh - as they slumped to a 2-1 loss.
It was Swansea's second consecutive win at Old Trafford, after an FA Cup third-round success in January, and dealt United their first home defeat on opening day since 1972.
"It is very disappointing that we have lost our first home match," said van Gaal, who handed competitive debuts to 20-year-old Tyler Blackett and 21-year-old Jesse Lingard. "We were very nervous in the first half, made the wrong choices ... In the second half, we never played as a team. Therefore, I'm responsible."
Gylfi Sigurdsson, back at Swansea after two years at Tottenham Hotspur, gave his side victory by squeezing a shot past United goalkeeper David de Gea in the 72nd minute after Wayne Routledge miscued a volley.
Sigurdsson had earlier teed up South Korea midfielder Ki Sung-yueng to stroke home a 28th-minute opener, before new United captain Wayne Rooney hooked in an equaliser for the injury-ravaged hosts.
FA Cup winners Arsenal opened their campaign with victory after Ramsey gave them a last-gasp 2-1 success at home to Crystal Palace, who are without a manager after Welshman Tony Pulis' shock departure on Saturday.
New signing Brede Hangeland gave Palace a 35th-minute lead, shrugging off Arsenal star signing Alexis Sanchez to meet Jason Puncheon's in-swinging corner with a glancing header.
Laurent Koscielny was caught napping by Hangeland's dart to the near post, but the Arsenal centre-back atoned in first-half injury time by ghosting in to head home a teasing free-kick from Sanchez.
Palace had Puncheon sent off for two bookable offences and Arsenal capitalised in the 91st minute when Ramsey notched from close range after Julian Speroni had saved from Mathieu Debuchy.
"Credit to Palace, they fought hard. They were physically very strong, very organised," Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger told Sky Sports. "We keep going. That's one of our strengths and it paid off today."
On Ramsey, Wenger added: "He has something that is a real gift, to be where you need to be in the box."
In other matches, New Zealand striker Chris Wood came off the bench to earn promoted Leicester City a dramatic 2-2 draw at home to Everton in their first top-flight game since 2004.
After Leicester new recruit Leonardo Ulloa had cancelled out Aiden McGeady's precise 20th-minute opener, Steven Naismith looked to have given Everton victory, only for Wood to fire home four minutes from time.
Eric Dier enjoyed a dream debut for Tottenham by scoring a 93rd-minute winner at West Ham United in manager Mauricio Pochettino's first game at the Spurs' helm.
After Spurs fullback Kyle Naughton and West Ham centre-back James Collins had both been sent off, substitute Dier coolly rounded goalkeeper Adrian in stoppage time before rolling home the game's only goal.
"I am not sure why I was up in attack, to be honest," said Dier, 20, who signed from Sporting Lisbon two weeks ago.
"I'm told the assistant boss said to the manager, 'What's he doing there?' And even I don't know why I was there. I don't normally get into those positions."
At The Hawthorns, new West Bromwich Albion manager Alan Irvine was denied victory against Sunderland by an 85th-minute goal from Sebastian Larsson.
West Brom led 2-1 after Saido Berahino replied to Lee Cattermole's early 23-metre strike with a brace, but Larsson earned Sunderland a 2-2 draw by sweeping home a cut-back from debutant Patrick van Aanholt.
James Chester's 52nd-minute header gave Hull City a 1-0 win at promoted Queens Park Rangers, and Andreas Weimann earned Aston Villa a 1-0 victory at Stoke City.

Bending movement of a branch depends on the mutual interaction of gravitational disturbance, phototropic response, and gravitropic correction. Four factors are involved in gravitropic correction: asymmetric growth strain, eccentric growth increment, heterogeneous longitudinal elasticity (MOE), and initial radius which are associated with reaction wood production. In this context, we have developed a simplified model to calculate the rate of curvature change by combination of these factors. Experimental data from Taiwan red cypress were used to test the validity of the model. Our results show clearly that asymmetric growth strain is the main factor involved in correction. Eccentric growth increment has positive efficiency and increases correction in addition to growth strain, while the total effect of longitudinal MOE variation has negative efficiency and decreases correction. Spring-back strain measurement is found to be useful for the measurement of self-weight bending moment of branch. The branches studied are essentially close to a biomechanical equilibrium which maintains branches in horizontal positions. In the case of a deciduous dicotyledonous tree, flamegold, the effect of defoliating behavior on measured growth strain and curvature change was formulated by a modified model. Growth strain is the sum of measured growth strain after defoliation and spring-back strain during defoliation. The curvature change can be calculated by using measured growth strain and spring-back strain after defoliation. These results show that full-leaf branches of flamegold have a tendency to bend downward, but defoliated branches have a tendency for upward bending. The efficiency of correction increased after defoliation due to weight loss.

Term Limits (original 1997; edition 2009)
by Vince Flynn
Work details
Term Limits by Vince Flynn (1997)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Great action, suspense with political intrigue. The major politicos were narcissistic and self-aggrandizing -- all believed their own view of the world to be correct. Yep, just like the real world! This scenario; however, is chilling--three politicians murdered and the rest held ransom to the budget. The budget? You gotta be ralphin' me. This whole story revolves around pork. Really? Could our leadership really be held hostage? It was a fun read/listen and I think that I'll try some more Vince Flynn.
Very good book that provides the backdrop for his popular Mitch Rapp series.
How do D.C. politics work? Reading this book will give you a pretty good idea, you get the feeling you are privy to an insider look at the U.S. political machine. Partisan politics and the budget are the antagonists in this story. There is plenty of action and political intrigue for die hard fans, with a plot that is interesting although void of a major plot twist. Did I figure out the whodunit? Yes, but I was taken there by way of a thrilling tale!
Good story, lots of suspense, in spite of some implausible situations.
Vince Flynn reads alot like Baldacci in my mind. Great action, suspense, detail-oriented and often with thought-provoking political intrigue. Really well written.

Columbus elections
Some voters head to polls early thanks to one-stop
Published: Sunday, November 6, 2005 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, November 6, 2005 at 12:00 a.m.
COLUMBUS -- Polk County voters head to the polls Tuesday, but some residents have already cast their ballots through North Carolina's "One Stop No-Excuse Voting" program.
Early voting began Oct. 20 at the Polk County Elections office in Columbus. The early voting gives residents who may not be able to get to the polls on election day other opportunities to cast a vote.
The early voting has gone well, said Polk County Elections Office Director Dale Edwards.
"I think we're up to 87, which is the three towns combined," she said Wednesday."It makes it a little easier on election day because there are not that many people going to the polls."
Polk County voters were able to cast ballots until Saturday, when the early voting period ended.Columbus has 699 registered voters for this year's municipal election, while Saluda has 439 and Tryon has 1,507.
About 42 percent of Saluda's registered voters participated in the last municipal election in 2003. The 2003 election drew about 16 percent of registered voters in Tryon and about 20 percent in Columbus.
Columbus voters will choose three town council members from a slate of four candidates. Incumbents Mark Feagan and Richard Hall are joined by Margaret Metcalf and Ricky McCallister in the race.
Incumbent Columbus Mayor Kathleen McMillian is running unopposed.
The Tryon Town Council race features two candidates running unopposed for two seats, incumbents Dennis Durham and Jim Scott. Incumbent mayor Alan Peoples is also running unopposed.

Blitar Things to Do Tips by RoyJava

See the largest and most imposing complex of ruins in East-Java, situated on the South Western slope of Kelud Volcano, about 12 km from Blitar. It is the beautiful Panataran/Penataran Temple, a huge complex famous for Singosari Kingdom rituals and ceremonies around 1197 (building took about 250 years!). The Majapahit Kingdom was related with this kingdom.
Around the base of the first level platform, which would once have been a meeting place, the comic-strip carvings tell the story of a test between the fat meat-eating Bubukshah and the thin vegetarian Gagang Aking. Temple reliefs show the transformation from 3-dimensional to 2-dimensional representations ... figures tend to take second place to the phantastic decorations.
If you do love archaeology and history the Panataran Hindu Temples you cannot miss!
Address: Desa Panataran, Panataran, East-Java
Directions: From Blitar head for Nglegok village, and Desa Panataran

Actually the Sukarno Mausoleum lies in Bendogerit near Sentul, a few km outside Blitar on the road to Panataran. The very first President of Indonesia, coming from originally Javanese people, is looked on by them as the "Father of his country". As leader of Indonesia from 1949 to 1965, he had been worshipped by the Javanese (almost a God), but with Soehartos regime he was no more less than a figurehead.
Sukarno was given a state funeral but, even at family requests to bury him at hometown of Bogor, West-Java, the hero of Indonesian independence was buried in an unmarked grave next to his mother in Blitar. It was only in 1978 that the lavish million-dollar monument was built over the grave and opened to Indonesian pelgrims. The site is also called "Makam Proklomator", or "the Grave of Indonesian's Independence".
Maybe in future the grave will be moved to West-Java (Batutulis, Bogor West Java), according to Megawati Sukarnoputri, daughter of Indonesia's first president ...

It appears producers are going to have to cough up some of the $ 1.1 billion that "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" made.
According to NBC Chicago, Gabriella Cedillo, an extra on the film, will receive $ 18.5 million from filmmakers after being injured on set.
The 26-year-old had originally sued Paramount and DreamWorks' Studios after suffering a head injury during filming in 2010. The accident occurred while Cedillo was behind the wheel of a stunt car, which was attached to the cable of another vehicle. However, the cable eventually snapped, slicing through the windshield and hitting her head. Despite being airlifted to a nearby hospital to undergo surgery, Cedillo ended up with permanent brain damage.
Gabriella's attorney stated that a "completely inadequate superficial weld had been applied in a failed effort to secure the bracket to the [stunt] car." According to the lawsuit, the movie studios "did everything they could to avoid payment," even after saying that they would take care of the medical bills.
"Dark of the Moon," which hit theaters back in 2010, ended up grossing the most money of the "Transformers" trilogy.
[via NBC Chicago b/w TMZ]
"Coming to America"
Writer Art Buchwald sued Paramount Pictures, claiming that they stole his idea for 'Coming to America.' Buchwald won the lawsuit.
"The Passion of the Christ"
The movie's screenwriter, Benedict Fitzgerald, sued Mel Gibson over not paying him enough money for the film. They settled out of court.
Another movie that spawned a ton of legal trouble: writer/star Sacha Baron Cohen was sued for defamation as well as using footage of people without their permission.
"The Hangover, Part II"
What hasn't 'The Hangover, Part II' been sued for at this point? First the filmmakers were hit with a lawsuit alleging that they copied Mike Tyson's face tattoo without permission. That was dropped, but then they were sued again by a stunt man who suffered injuries on set. (That lawsuit is still pending.) A man also sued the filmmakers, claiming that they stole his life story and used it for 'Hangover, Part II.' Yeesh.
"Natural Born Killers"
The family of a Louisiana store clerk, who was shot by a young couple on a crime spree, sued Oliver Stone, claiming this movie inspired the crimes. The lawsuit was eventually dropped.

Nationalist Prime Minister Shinzo Abe paid an inflammatory visit to the controversial Yasukuni war shrine on Thursday, a move Beijing immediately condemned as glorification of Japan's past "militaristic aggression", warning Tokyo must "bear the consequences".
Abe described his visit, which comes days after he caused consternation by giving Japan's military its second consecutive annual budget bump, as a pledge against war and said it was not aimed at hurting feelings in China or South Korea.
Yasukuni Shrine is the believed repository of around 2.5 million souls of Japan's war dead, most of them common soldiers, but also including several high-level officials executed for war crimes after World War II, who were enshrined in the 1970s.
South Korea and China see it as a symbol of Tokyo's unrepentance for the horrors of last century and say it whitewashes the country's warmongering past.
"Some people criticise the visit to Yasukuni as paying homage to war criminals, but the purpose of my visit today... is to report before the souls of the war dead how my administration has worked for one year and to renew the pledge that Japan must never wage a war again," Abe said in a statement released after the visit.
"For 68 years after the war, Japan created a free and democratic country, and consistently walked the path of peace. There is no doubt whatsoever that we will continue to pursue this path.
"It is not my intention at all to hurt the feelings of the Chinese and Korean people. It is my wish to respect each other's character, protect freedom and democracy, and build friendship with China and Korea with respect."
The visit came exactly 12 months after he took power, a period in which he has met neither China's President Xi Jinping or Korea's President Park Geun-Hye.
Ties with Beijing were bad before Abe took office, with the two countries crossing diplomatic swords over the ownership of a string of uninhabited islands in the East China Sea, controlled by Japan, but claimed by China.
The dispute has been ratcheted up further this year, with the involvement of military aircraft and ships, leaving some observers warning of the danger of armed conflict between the world's second- and third-largest economies.
Beijing wasted no time in slamming Abe's move, which came the day Xi and other senior Chinese leaders visited the mausoleum of Mao Zedong, the hardline communist who led China through the Cultural Revolution when upwards of two million people were killed.
"The essence of Japanese leaders' visits to the Yasukuni shrine is to beautify Japan's history of militaristic aggression and colonial rule," foreign ministry spokesman Qin Gang said.
Qin's statement came after a Chinese foreign ministry official condemned Abe's visit as "absolutely unacceptable to the Chinese people".
Japan "must bear the consequences arising from this", Luo Zhaohui, director-general of the ministry's department of Asian affairs, said in a statement posted on a verified ministry microblog.
The last incumbent Japanese prime minister to visit the shrine was Junichiro Koizumi on August 15, 2006, the anniversary of Japan's defeat in 1945.
His repeated pilgrimages badly soured relations with China, despite the important economic and trade ties that bind the two countries.
The foreign ministry in Tokyo said it wanted to stress Abe "visited Yasukuni Shrine in a purely personal capacity (and)... not... to pay homage to war criminals".
However, China and South Korea, both victims of Japan's 20th century aggression, say no such distinction exists.
Abe did not visit the shrine during his first term as prime minister from 2006 to 2007, although later said that he felt "extremely remorseful" for that.
Abe's forthright views on history -- he has previously questioned the definition of "invade" in relation to Japan's military adventurism last century -- have raised fears over the direction he wants to take the officially-pacifist country.
He has spoken repeatedly of his desire to tweak the US-imposed constitution, which limits the functions of the military, and has been on a drive in recent weeks to broaden the definition of their role to allow for "collective self-defence", which would allow Japanese troops to come to the aid of allies.
Takehiko Yamamoto, a professor of international relations at Tokyo's Waseda University, said the visit was "an act of folly" that was certain to make a bad situation worse.
"It is perfectly possible his visit will fuel worries in Washington over a possible rise of militarism and a shift to the right in Japan," he said.
