I agree with Rock. If Hill covered up abuse he's gone. However, he is being "independently" investigated by ardent U supporters, which only means another potential cover up. I hope the parents keep up the heat, they know what happened and are very angry.

It has to be tough being a parent these days. If you act on behalf of your child too late, then you're irresponsible and selfish. But if you're up in arms too quickly, you catch the disapproval of old Brad, who knows lots of coaches, most of whom are just trying to administer a little Hannity discipline to make up for what the parents lacked.

As a Ute fan, if wromg doing ocured than deal out the appropriate punishment. You on the other hand have your pitch fork and torch in hand. Why don't you just wait until the report comes out by the supposed "ardent" U supporters before you claim a cover up.
What if Hill factually did nothing wrong and the report backs that up? You have already labeled it a "cover up" way to keep an open mind.

I totally agree! Once again, Rock and the D-News care more about sensationalism more than substance. The truth will fall on either side; let the investigators do their job.
The real irony . . . the bloggers are complaining about Utah;'s handling of the Rugby Team as too harsh. Here, Hill was too soft. Same paper, similar articles, different stance. Criticism on both sides. I guess, it's true, everybody has an opinion . . .

Rock's analogy of comparing the GM CEO and a car catching on fire
doesn't wash with me. Hill, obviously was aware of the allegations against
his swimming coach and stuck with him, just as the Rutgers AD did. They were
both hoping the incidents would go away without any one paying the

@gonefishn: "potential cover-up" is not the same as "cover-up". I'm siding with the families and the abused athletes, I'm sorry that hurts your feelings enough to accuse me of leading a lynch mob. But I felt the same way about Penn St., Rutgers and I'm real furious with Auburn. Sorry but your anger is not justified towards me. Plus we've seen enought of "indepedent" investigations to know they are bogus, especially when the two individuals have been indentified by name and their previous affiliation with Utah athletics is known. C'mon, reality check here fishn.

One of the "investigators" is a former trustee of the university and alumni of the year. Doubting his impartiality is simply a matter of critical thinking, something utah "fans" mostly lack when it comes to this matter.
As for hill himself, well if he is run out it is utah "fans" worst nightmare come to life. The moderate success utah athletics has had over the last 20+ years is because hill actually understands that for utah to be a successful athletic program they need to embrace local (LDS) talent as athletes and coaches. Let's face it, no non Utahn is growing up dreaming of being a ute. None of them.
If hill goes then whittingham will not be far behind because there is no guaranty a new A.D. will understand what utah has to have to be a success. And if whittingham gets run out for his mediocre record by a new A.D. there is no guaranty the new coach will understand what it takes have even the moderate level of success utah has had. Until utah embraced LDS players they were one of the worst football programs in D1.

I am simply urging patience and knowledge of FACTS. Your comments about a "potential cover up" and "bogus" investigation only poison the well. Hopefully if you are ever accused of something you are treated with more fairness.
Thank goodness you have chimed in to demonstrate to us all what a level headed critical thinker you are. This is a serious discusion to undertake and you, as always, use it as opportunity to take things to the gutter and turn it into a BYU Utah deal. Brilliant, bravo, thank you so much for your contribution.

Sadly, at every opportunity, so many Y supporters look for any hope that Utah may possibly fall back toward their level. To wish something bad for one of the best leaders in our state to improve your position is quite sad. Then again, we have also seen this behavior from Utah supporters when the Y has any issues.

Sadly, some Utah fans are willing to ignore Utah athletes being physically
abused, rather than see those responsible held accountable.
IF, the good doctor didn't know that abuse was happening in one of the programs he oversees, then he needs to explain WHY he didn't know.
If, Hill knew about the abuse, then he needs to explain WHY he didn't do anything to stop it.

The phrases Dr. Chris Hill and coverup? Are you guys kidding me? Chris Hill is one of the most upstanding guys I have ever known. He would throw anyone out if he knew they were acting against the best interests of the university. It's amazing how we tend to throw people under the bus so easily. When he gets exonerated I hope all of you apologize.

utah "fans" inability to accept reality is one of the things that keeps me coming here.
Tell me how successful was the utah football program before mcbride took over and embraced the missionary program and also the polynesian community? How successful would the utah football program be if they returned to a state of antagonism towards kids going on missions? How successful do you think the utah football program would be without a coach, and A.D., that understands this states unique LDS culture and embraces it?
How successful was utah's football program before they had an A.D. that undstood this who hired a coach that understood it?
If they lose chris hill, and the new A.D. does not understand it, and they lose whittingham, and the new coach does not understand it, do you really think they can sustain any level of success?
You yourself pointed out that blechen never even knew who the utah program was until the sugar bowl. Do you think utah would have ever made the sugar bowl without the coaches and A.D. that understood the LDS culture and allowed athletes to live it?

The reality you utah "fans" need to face is that utah is not a dream for any kid growing up anywhere outside of SLC. The university of utah is not a more desirable destination than anywhere else in the pac12 with the possible exception of wsu. For utah to sustain any success they have to embrace the LDS missionary and polynesian communities, with the polynesian community being just a subset of the LDS community as the vast majority of the polynesians that attend utah being LDS.
It may hurt your feelings to know that utah is not a destination on its own that can stand up to the other places in the pac12, but your feelings don't matter. Yes utah "fans" need to pray chris hill survives this, they need to pray whittingham can get some improvement out of his team because if those two go, and you guys get another chuck stobart or jim fassel, who ignores the local culture and tries to out recruit usc, ucla, and oregon, for out of state talent then the utah program will be an abject failure. utah will never compete with them in that way.

Yes, there is a LOT of information that needs to be communicated and a lot of responses you need from players and parents throughout the season. But if you try to pack too much into one message, everyone who receives it will go into a brain freeze.
So chunk things up and make the question or request so easy and simple that the person receiving it can read it and respond quickly and easily. Send "softballs" with "yes/no" answers once and a while that are so simple that anyone could respond, i.e., "Will you be at the game this Saturday?" When responding to your messages becomes a habit, you've got it made.

Pork Souvlaki Gyros (Meat Only)
Total Time
Prep 2 hrs
Cook 5 hrs
Without dropping a bundle on a veritical spit and preparing 50 pounds of layered souvlaki, this is as close as you can get to the real deal right in your kitchen. Having tried many recipes, I scrapped all and started from scratch with a simple pulled pork roast recipe. So, the texture is not exact, but the flavor is nearly identical to what I've tasted in Iraklion, Fira, Mytilini, and mainland Greece.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 lbs pork roast
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon greek adobo seasoning
- 1⁄4 cup water
- 1⁄4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1⁄2 medium onion
- salt
- - Mix the dried herbs, water, olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, and vinegar in a bowl deep enough to hold the pork roast.
- - Coat pork roast with the marinade.
- - Slice the garlic and onion and spread over top of meat.
- - Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, turning and coating several times.
- - Place all in roasting pan or dish.
- - Tent and roast at 300 degrees 4 to 4.5 hours, basting often with its own juices. Should have internal temp of at least 170 degrees.
- - After removing from oven, allow to cool to touch.
- - Remove meat from bone, discarding any fat and/or grissle.
- - Mix all sauce and bits from the pan together with the pulled meat and salt to taste.
- - Meat should be very moist but if necessary, add olive oil and water to moisten especially if reheating.
- - Before serving, dry fry (no oil) the meat in a non-stick skillet. This will produce crispy golden brown bits nearly identical to that from a rotisserie.
Most Helpful
Great substitute for the real thing, especially if you can't get near a gyro or souvlaki, like us in the East of Scotland. Just back from a holiday in Greece and this was better than some of the souvlaki we had - not anywhere like a gyro, but as a souvlaki it is a bloody good stand-in. Served with homemade tzaziki, red onions, tomato and chips (fries) in a pita, just like in Greece. Shame it doesn't have more reviews because it deserves to.
Great recipe and very good instructions. I made this for dinner and my husband and I loved it. The kitchen smelled fantastic and the pork came out very tender and pulled apart easily. I served it with greek salad, hummous, tzaziki and a warm pita.

Critic's Notebook; TV Searches for Distinction as Sept. 11 Programs Begin
By CARYN JAMES
Published: September 3, 2002
At what point do all the tragic stories blend into one big tragic story, making individual memories -- eyewitness accounts by those who survived and remembrances of those who were lost -- seem less rather than more personal?
Television reached a saturation point months ago. It's easy to pay lip service to the idea that each story is unique and moving, but with every new ''Dateline'' or ''20/20'' report it seems harder for television to convey that. The anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks is more than a week away, but the harsh truth is that many viewers are already feeling overwhelmed and resistant, wondering, How much more do we need to see?
There are some surprising answers in the first wave of anniversary documentaries, which begins with more than half a dozen appearing today and tomorrow. They include one extraordinary work on ''Frontline'' called ''Faith and Doubt at Ground Zero.'' It is an elegantly made, unsentimental look at the widely varied ways in which the terror attacks affected religious beliefs, an important issue no other program has dealt with so thoroughly or thoughtfully.
MTV's ''NewsNow Special Report: After 9/11, Pop Life Goes On,'' asks how popular culture was affected by the attacks. Although the documentary offers a glib response, at least it raises that urgent, fascinating, complex question with a focus no one else has.
These programs suggest that it is possible, with a great deal of sifting, to find eye-opening works that essentially take the cultural and emotional temperature of the moment.
''Faith and Doubt at Ground Zero'' (made by the documentary filmmaker Helen Whitney) begins with an image that is now familiar: the shell of one of the collapsed World Trade Center towers, those structural beams tilting out of the ground like a trellis on which nothing grows. As smoke rises around it, the image resembles a vision of hell, and a voice says, ''I saw evil.''
The opening segment, with images of people tumbling to their deaths, is graphic enough to make some viewers turn the program off, but that would be a mistake; it quickly becomes less horrifyingly familiar and more philosophical. It raises the unanswerable question -- what is the nature of evil? -- and approaches it with tough-mindedness, clarity and respect for every response. The answers come from clergymen and artists, from survivors of the attacks and families of its victims, shown against simple but visually graceful backdrops of churches and offices.
Some people cling to faith more strongly than ever, like the father who lost a firefighter son and now says, ''He's watching me,'' or the mother who says of her lost daughter, ''I pray every day that she didn't suffer,'' and adds, ''I felt God knew best.''
But a rabbi says that such a response, while comforting and sincere, is ''just too damn easy'' because ''it gets God off the hook'' and ''it gets their religious beliefs off the hook, and right now everything is on the hook.'' The shadow of the Holocaust is cast over this issue, sometimes explicitly, as the terror attacks evoke a similar problem: how could a good God have allowed so much loss of innocent life? Some people simply turned away from religion, like the wife who lost her husband and no longer has the ''conversations with God'' that she used to.
Even religion itself is open to question. Ian McEwan, whose novels explore the darkest impulses of the human mind, says he doesn't believe in God or evil. ''I think there are only people behaving and sometimes behaving monstrously,'' he says.
There is one conspicuous lapse here. The program includes a clip of President Bush on Sept. 11 saying that ''today our nation saw evil'' and referring to ''the evildoers,'' but it doesn't begin to explore the political implications of his persistent use of those words. (That may seem to be outside the realm of a documentary about faith, but the program did drag the president in. And the issue is not really beside the point if you consider that this administration has established the ''White House Office of Faith-Based Initiatives'' linking religious groups to social services.)
Instead, the program uses Mr. Bush's words as a springboard to consider what evil might be. A professor of theology says that you can call Osama bin Laden ''the personification of evil,'' but ''even if you say that, evil is bigger.''
Because no one can rationally explain evil, art in all its instinctive, inexplicable glory offers many important responses. Mr. McEwan says that art can examine evil. The opera singer Renée Fleming, who sang ''Amazing Grace'' at a memorial at ground zero, reminds us of art's capacity to assuage grief.
Pop culture's role in the social fabric is just as crucial as that of high art and, because of its quick response, more immediately revealing. MTV looks at how pop culture seems to have come full circle since the terror attacks. Last summer television was full of the Gary Condit scandal, shark attacks and ''Fear Factor''; today it has Anna Nicole Smith's crass but successful reality show and ''Fear Factor.'' In between, there was an interregnum in which violent movies were postponed, patriotic songs hit the charts and Dan Rather wept on David Letterman's show.

Just wondering what the security implications are of running Windows 7 HomeGroup over an unsecured (open) WiFi network.
Are there known hacks on the HomeGroup password or is it possible to otherwise break in to HomeGroup files, resources, printers, and computers without knowing the password?
Can someone "sniff" the files that are being shared?
My gut tells me that there's no encryption of HomeGroup traffic, but I don't know for sure.

Watson Pharmaceuticals has bought generic drugs firm Ascent Pharmahealth for Aus$375 million (about $393 million) in cash. Ascent is the Australian and Southeast Asian generics business of Strides Arcolab, and achieved total sales of some Aus$150 million in 2012.
Watson claims the acquisition will make it the fifth largest generics firm in Australia, based on revenues, and the largest in Singapore, as well as providing an established commercial base in Malaysia, Hong Kong, Vietnam, and Thailand.
The Annual Australian and South East Asian pharmaceuticals markets are currently worth some Aus$12 billion, and Aus$4 billion, respectively, and both are growing at an estimated 8% annually, states Paul Basaro, Watson president and CEO. "This acquisition complements our existing generic development and marketing capabilities and in the important Australia market, and catapults us to a top five position that would have taken considerable time and investment to build organically. It also provides us with a leadership position in Southeast Asia...We will retain the proven sales and marketing teams that have driven Ascent's growth; we will have a larger portfolio of products, and gain a broader pipeline of products to support continued growth."
Watson's existing business in Australia is carried out through its Spirit Pharmaceuticals supply operation, and its Willow Pharmaceuticals subsidiary, which specializes in injectables. In 2010 the firm also established the Watson Pharma Company to consolidate its position in Australia and support growth.
The Ascent acquisition follows just over a month after Watson and Amgen initiated a collaboration to develop and commercialize oncology antibody biosimilars worldwide. Under terms of this deal Watson committed up to $400 million in co-development costs.

Philip James Ayres
Philip James Ayres (born 28 July 1944 at Lobethal, South Australia) is an Australian biographer and literary historian, a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society (London), a Fellow of the Australian Academy of the Humanities, and a recipient of the Centenary Medal for contributions to literature in 2001.[1]
He attended Adelaide Boys High School and the University of Adelaide (PhD 1971). He has taught at the University of Adelaide, Monash University, Vassar College and Boston University.[2]
Academic work[edit]
His biography subjects include Malcolm Fraser,[3] Douglas Mawson,[4] former Australian Chief Justice Sir Owen Dixon,[5] Sydney's late-19th-century, early-20th-century Catholic Archbishop Patrick Francis Moran[6] and Sir Ninian Stephen[7] (who had been Australia's Governor-General for most of the 1980s).
His literary-historical books include Classical Culture and the Idea of Rome in Eighteenth-Century England,[8] According to WorldCat, the book is held in 398 libraries [9] He is the editor of the two-volume Clarendon Press edition of Shaftesbury's Characteristicks.[10]
The British Law Quarterly Review described his Owen Dixon as a "conspicuous success" in marrying "distinguished scholarship and narrative skills",[11] while the Australian Law Journal devoted a 14-page section to complimentary analyses of the same book.[12] Fortunate Voyager, the account of Sir Ninian Stephen's life, displays similar research and narrative methodologies. The other biographies have also received generally excellent reviews in the relevant professional journals,[13] although the author has been criticised for declining to moralise his objectivist presentation of character[14]
He has also written first-hand accounts of several conflict zones, having travelled with Malcolm Fraser in South Africa (1986)[15] and Somalia (1992),[16] and with the Hezb-i-Islami jihadists in Afghanistan in 1987.[17]
He has been twice married (1965 to Maruta Sudrabs; 1981 to Patricia Monypenny née San Martin). He lives in Melbourne and Camperdown (Western Victoria).

ABSTRACT– A self-assessment scale has been developed and found to be a reliable instrument for detecting states of depression and anxiety in the setting of an hospital medical outpatient clinic. The anxiety and depressive subscales are also valid measures of severity of the emotional disorder. It is suggested that the introduction of the scales into general hospital practice would facilitate the large task of detection and management of emotional disorder in patients under investigation and treatment in medical and surgical departments.

Civil Engineering
Mission of the Program
The mission of the Civil Engineering (BSCE) program is to provide a high quality undergraduate education that prepares graduates with the appropriate knowledge, skills, and attitudes to successfully begin a career in the civil engineering profession and continue to grow professionally and personally throughout their career.
Civil Engineering Objectives
After graduation, civil engineering graduates should demonstrate the following abilities:
1) Lifelong Learning - to pursue professional development by obtaining professional licensure, certifications or by post-graduate study as appropriate to meet and adapt to emerging and evolving technology and infrastructure challenges.
2) Successful Careers - to have a successful career in the field of civil engineering or a related field.
3) Professionalism - to contribute to the field of civil engineering or a related field as a professional
Educational Outcomes
Upon graduation students should demonstrate (at a minimum) the following outcomes:
- An ability to apply knowledge of advanced mathematics (including differential equations and statistics), science, and engineering to solve the problems at the interface of engineering and biology.
- An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data from living and non-living systems.
- An ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs.
- An ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams.
- An ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems.
- An understanding of professional and ethical responsibilities.
- An ability to communicate effectively.
- The broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global and societal context.
- Recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning.
- Knowledge of contemporary issues.
- An ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.
The program must prepare graduates to apply knowledge of mathematics through differential equations, calculus-based physics, chemistry, and at least one additional area of basic science, consistent with the program educational objectives; apply knowledge of four technical areas appropriate to civil engineering; conduct civil engineering experiments and analyze and interpret the resulting data; design a system, component, or process in more than one civil engineering context; explain basic concepts in management, business, public policy, and leadership; and explain the importance of professional licensure.
The program must demonstrate that faculty teaching courses that are primarily design in content are qualified to teach the subject matter by virtue of professional licensure, or by education and design experience. The program must demonstrate that it is not critically dependent on one individual.
In addition to the above baccalaureate civil engineering program educational outcomes, the educational experience (classroom, lab, and extra curricula activities) of the students addresses the baccalaureate degree outcomes described by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) in their report "Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge for the 21st Century: Preparing the Civil Engineer for the Future" (Second Edition, 2008). This report (Executive Summary) is based on a broad based and continuing dialogue by the civil engineering profession that has been facilitated and lead by ASCE. The dialogue recognizes the need for change in the preparation of civil engineers for professional practice and is decades old. It reached a tipping point for ASCE in 1998 when the ASCE Board of Trustees approved Policy Statement 465: "Academic Prerequisites for Licensure and Professional Practice". The future of the civil engineering profession is also described in ASCE's Vision for Civil Engineering in 2025.

Earlier this week I traveled to Joplin, Missouri, for a trip I will never forget. The Joplin story is one of a community that that never gave up, that demonstrated steely resolve in the face of tragedy, and that is coming back stronger and better than before. It is also the story of volunteers – 130,000 strong and counting – whose selfless service has lifted up an entire community when it needed it most.
For many residents, the one year anniversary was a painful reminder of the devastating EF-5 tornado that ripped through Joplin, killing 161 people, destroying 7,500 homes and buildings, and leaving a trail of destruction through the heart of the city.
But even more so, the anniversary was a symbol of hope, pride, optimism, and unity. The people of Joplin did not let themselves be defined by what happened on May 22, 2011. Instead they defined themselves by what happened after - their extraordinary resilience and desire to rebuild.
As President Obama told the graduating seniors at Joplin High School, "Here in Joplin, you've also learned that we have the power to grow...

Hey guys, I have been reading this board for a few days while waiting for my x-cuter mod chip. I'm new to xbox mod but old school pc hardware guy...so thought I would handle this with a breeze.....
Well, I got my chip installed...no probs....no dvd burner yet, but have some cdrw's. Load up taxi game....worksfine...slow load, but fine for the few minutes I played it.
Then made a menu selectable disk, with taxi game and boxing game....it loads fine and I select. Well, boxing game loads fine...fast...starts, but no matter which game play I choose, or whihc characters...it locks up...freezes...after about 20 seconds or so of game play. I took the top back of and hd out....cause it seems like what would be an overheat problem on a PC....course not knowing how hot this passive heatsink should be...it feels hot...
Now, who has ideas on this problem? I am 95% sure all solder points r good....likely not overheating...but not positive....anyone of you gys have a take on this?
Thanks for any and all help, and let me say that there are quite a few of you that simply go out of your way to help people on here and that is quite refreshing.

If it's freezing, there's a few possibilities off the top of my head:
- You messed up on the menu selectable disc.
- You have a corrupt save file for that game.
- If it's Mike Tyson boxing, it has FADE protection, that could be the cause.

From Publishers Weekly
The title of Soft Skull's latest Soft Skill book is taken from Charles Bukowski, who said of wage labor: "I couldn't understand the murdering of my years." A struggling activist/artist, Z. found that he was too short on time and money to write an activist's memoir and how-to. Instead, he e-mailed a questionnaire (printed at the end of the book), asking fellow activists and artists how they managed to be active yet survive economically. Each of the sections of the book is created from the responses to a particular question, but one gets the feeling that many activists and artists are quite private about their survival techniques. A.D. Nauman, for one, provides concrete ideas for writers looking for relatively painless work within the mainstream, and for artists who are also mothers, but the section entitled "The Dark Side: Illegal Jobs" is not nearly as juicy as one might hope. The e-mail format creates a tone that is entertaining, conversational and immediate, but also often prolix. Yet for anyone looking for some human company in the long struggle to make a living outside of the corporate structure, this book provides grassroots moral support.

RIPTON, Vt. - We're learning more about the American author and journalist, held hostage for nearly two years in Syria, who graduated college in Vermont.
Peter Theo Curtis, 45, was released Sunday by Islamist rebels after he went missing in October 2012.
One of the last people Curtis had contact with before his capture was Tik Root.
Both Root and Theo Curtis graduated from Middlebury College, both are freelance journalists specializing in middle east affairs, and both disappeared in Syria
Root was first introduced to Curtis through a mutual boss.
Although Root has never met Curtis in person, he exchanged emails the days surrounding Curtis's capture in 2012.
"I was one of the last people to communicate with Theo before he crossed into Syria and was pretty quickly abducted," said Root.
It's also something Root can relate to.
As a junior in college during a semester abroad, on March 18th, 2011, Root disappeared in Syria as well.
"They thought I was a spy or journalist or who knows what," said Root.
He was detained and brought to an underground detention facility where he spent 14 days.
"I was hearing torture outside the door and I knew that was a possibility. They threatened me on more than one occasion. I was marched in front of Syrian state cable TV at one point," Root said.
Tik Root was released April 1st, 2011.
On Sunday, during a Red Sox game, Tik learned of Curtis's release.
He said it brought back a flood of memories, "That moment of coming home is just so special I think for both me and my family, and it's just very, very exciting that Theo and his loved ones are going to have that opportunity."
It's been a tense couple of weeks for journalists, especially those working in the middle east.
The beheading of James Foley, and now Curtis's release.
Speaking from his own experience, Root said it's an emotional time for his family.
"Our situations were on a much different scales. They have years of anguish and worry built up. It's all going to come flooding out. It's going to be very busy, hectic, chaotic, delicate time. But just enjoy it, get some sleep, and it sounds like they're running on a lot of great adrenaline."
And Root said he hopes to finally get to meet Curtis, now that he is coming home and lives to tell his story.
Curtis is expected to return to the states, and his home in Massachusetts soon.
Tik Root also passed on his sympathies to the Foley family, and added the work James was doing is very important.

Hi, I am a painter and I purchase this pack of 5 several times a month, and have been doing so for many years now.I am extremely satisfied with it because I don't need an expensive durable one from the local paint store, so this cheap one works just fine for me.However, I was not happy that the price was increased to more than $1.50 on one shot from approx $2.50 to $3.99. That was a big increase, but it's still cheaper than getting a pack from the local paint store.So I am here to review the product, and I have to say that it's a good product and does the job. I will continue to purchase it too, even though I am unhappy about the cost.Thanks,Joe

Disposable Paint Trays
By Mike the fix it guy
from West Hills, CA
Great quality for a low price. This style tray with the small bumps clears your roller much better than the current ones sold at some of the national hardware chains. For some reason they use a number of angled raised sections and the roller tends to skip or slip and slows down the work.
Great Product

No clean up required, just throw away.

Fit the paint tray very well. I used a piece of tape on the sides to secure it to the tray just in case. Used at least ten so far w/o any problems.

This is an odd update, why would a beta "release candidate" be handled in this manner?
"It is highly recommended that you test the update on a test server before updating the plugin on a production server".
Shouldn't this have all been done before I am notified that I should update?
This is bad form in my opinion, and in fact.. should not be allowed.

I am running Windows 7 SP1 on an AMD Phenom X4 with a Radeon 6770 1GB graphics card and 8GB RAM.
The computer runs fine until I try to output to my TV instead of computer monitor. I have a persistent "black bar" around my TV output no matter what I do. On the Catalyst control centre on the Digital Flat Panels bit, I have tried to use a custom format and on that screen it outputs to the full size of the TV screen so I know my PC can send a full sized output.
Even the over-scanning option doesn't work to get it to scale. It is a generic 37" LCD TV which is 1080p.
Whenever I try to run a graphics heavy program, particularly new games, after about 5 minutes (usually less) the whole thing will just crash and my PC will reboot. This doesn't happen if I run it through the monitor.
Lastly, and I don't know if this is important but for some reason when I do the windows key + P to switch between different modes, it seems to think my computer monitor is the "projector" and the TV is the "Computer only" option.
I am connecting my monitor by DVI, and the TV by HDMI.
UPDATE (response to first comment):
Yes tried it with both monitors and it still crashes and has black bar. Basicallt it seems to be an issue my set up has with my tv. And on the audio I am using a direct audio cable to my amplifier from back of PC.

Our HistoryBESThq opened its doors in July of 2011, after months of creative collaboration and thoughtful planning by the innovative minds at Probity Builders, as a DBA division. Having coached and consulted small businesses in Oregon for nearly a decade, Ron White of Probity Builders recognized a fundamental need of business owners (to be connected, not alone) and the power of growth through community. Guided by the spirit of the Jesuit Tradition and Ignatian Spirituality, Ron was inspired to create a space where like-minded friends could gather to collaborate, network, learn, and sustainably grow their companies in the midst of a vibrant, supportive community. Thus, the birth of BESThq, Beaverton's Collaborative Business Community and Executive Development Center. On January 2, 2014, BESThq LLC officially formed as a separate going concern and Oregon Benefit Company. BESThq LLC remains committed to social and environmental benefit while enjoying the opportunity to lead community in change for a better future.

Released: Dec 01st, 2006
Running Time: 90
Director: Michael Zen
Company: Arena Entertainment
Cast: Kris Anthony, Scott Wilde, Marcos Pirelli, Brett Mathews, Justin Wells, Mark Galfione, Nick Capra, Adrian Troy
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Gay and Bi
Burglar Nick Capra breaks in on a sleeping Justin Wells, and his stories about the house's hot past serve as flashbacks until the finale brings the two together. There's a forced, odd narrative that has to explain the set-ups, following a similar five-minute intro that shows photo-shoot footage before the actual film starts (and mistakenly notes that Wells has never bottomed on camera before). All involved – including accomplished director Michael Zen – have done better, but this is still a sometimes-decent diversion. Scott Wilde's boner makes the most memorable impression, an instantly hard throbber that takes care of business with Adrian Troy. Wells and Capra make an attractive pair, and both get some nice wood, but the fuck sequences have a lot of bouncing with little actual dick movement in the close-ups. Marcos Pirelli fucks Brett Mathews in the opener, while Mark Galfione sits on Kris Anthony in a chemistry-free scene.
RETAILING: Capra and Wells cover will generate some interest.

Our club would like to get ideas on a decent durable remote controlled electronic baseball scoreboard. Either LED or Electromagnetic digits.
Of course weather and getting hit by baseballs will be a factor.
What are our best options?
What have you used that works well?
If you have specific company links, please do not post them here but send via PM.
How do you send a PM on this?
We just bought one last year from this company. We ordered through Coca-Cola and received a significant discount
I agree with BH, around here you contact Coke or Pepse and if you agree to sell their products you can get a free scoreboard or if it's not free it's at a very reduced price.

My brother is getting married next Saturday and I am at a loss for what to wear. Anything nice I used to have obviously doesn't fit!
I have one maternity dress I bought from Target (I will be 24 weeks at the wedding) and it is not that fancy but maybe I could wear it with a shawl over it?
What is acceptable and unacceptable?
