Outdoorsman and documentary filmmaker Patrick Gallagher had torpedoed a promising career through self-destructive self-pity and procrastination. Now he seeks redemption in tiny, isolated Lawton, Vermont, embarking upon a new project and, perhaps, a last chance. But there is no salvation to be found in Lawton--not for Gallagher, or for Andie Nightingale, the beautiful but haunted local policewoman who befriends him...or for anyone living within the borders of the sleepy New England hamlet. For a local history that no one dares to speak about has enflamed a maniac's bloodlust, and his desire for vengeance.
It is Gallagher who discovers the first corpse while out fishing--the body of a large man, tortured, ravaged, and hideously mutilated; a horror despoiling the pristine natural landscape. Nearby is a crudely drawn picture, chilling in its implications, accompanied by a grim, cryptic threat--and a name: Charon, boatman on the river to Hell.
And there are more murders to come--each more grisly than the last--awakening the personal ghosts that haunt Gallagher and Nightingale, while drawing them deeper into the horrors of a past century...and closer to shocking revelations of brutal, shared guilt contained in the lost writing of a long-dead Lakota woman. For evil once rolled into Lawton in the wagon of a traveling show. And here it has remained for one hundred years, taking human form once more as an elusive and terrifying killer who ruthlessly stalks those who guard the terrible legacy of their great-grandparents. And the secrets to Charon's power, obsession and defeat lie in the spiritual place that Patrick Gallagher and Andie Nightingale most fear must enter: theforbidden realm of the Ghost Dance.

Read an Excerpt
Chapter One
It is the last day of November, 1918. The Green Mountains rise on either side of the Bluekill River like mute and paralyzed sentinels, aware of festering intrigues, but powerless to intercede. Sleet pelts the valley floor and the stone-faced buildings of the town of Lawton. Up on the peak flanks, wet snow falls and settles on a log cabin in the loft of which a ten-year-old boy sleeps fitfully under thick wool blankets.
Two hours before dawn the boy stirs at racking, wet coughs in the room below. His half-lidded eyes take in the dozens of nailheads showing through the roof planking. The nailheads have conducted the cold inward and stand out frosted and luminescent against the dark wood. Were it not for the coughing, Dylan could imagine himself awakening outside under the stars in a perfect world where there was no such thing as dying.
"Dylan. Dylan, wake up, for God's sake!"
The boy rolls over on the straw pallet he uses for a bed. The woodsmoke is overwhelmed by the stale, sweaty stench of fever. Lantern light throws twisting shadows on the chinked walls, the hooked rug, the plain pine table his father had crafted the year before leaving for war, and the daybed where his twin sister lies. Anna has not spoken an intelligible sentence in three days and now is but a tiny, gasping face cradled in the puffery of their mother's prize star quilt.
Hettie McColl wrings out a washcloth into a washbasin, folds it and places it carefully on her daughter's flushed brow. "Mama loves you, Anna," she whispers to a girl who cannot hear.
Dylan looks down at his mother and swallows hard. Overnight, Hettie's lovely countenance has ebbed with eachdefeat in Anna's fight for life; her eyes are sunken and black; her cheeks have retreated around the bones of her face. Her lips have cracked. But it is her expression that crushes the boy, an air of despair defeating the hope that her love alone could conquer this fate.
Dylan thinks of his father, who died the year before during a mustard gas attack in the trenches of France. Instinctively, the boy retreats inward; and he sees the world as if through cold, flowing water.
"Dylan!" Hettie calls again.
"What do you want, Ma?" he asks dully.
"Take the horse and go to town, get the doctor," she orders. "Your sister's in a bad way."
"Ain't no doctors left in Lawton, Ma," he replies. "They all left 'cause they was scared they was gonna get it, too."
Dylan has heard it said that in the past six months, twenty million people around the world have died of the Spanish influenza. More than six hundred thousand in the United States have succumbed, far more than the number of soldiers who have died fighting Huns during the entire war. Lawton is the hardest-hit town in Vermont. Dylan has lost an aunt, his maternal grandmother and two cousins to the spiking fevers, splitting headaches and convulsions. Now his sister is following.
A friend at school said the end comes when the lungs fill with liquids. Anna will drown in her bed. And then his mother will get it and Dylan fears he will be left alone to face the fever himself. The boy wants nothing more than to pull his blankets over his head and hide from the horror that swirls in the room around him.
"Then go get the priest," his mother cries in desperation. "Anna don't have much longer."
The boy has heard stories about the priest and he has a sudden resurgence of faith that Anna will live. He tugs on leather boots, parka, cap and mittens and races out into the night. He bridles his father's chestnut mare. He mounts bareback and kicks her into the storm.
It is nearly dawn by the time Dylan makes it down out of the snow line to town and to the brick rectory next to St. Edward's Catholic Church. The wind has quickened, blowing wet leaves through a freezing rain. Dylan stumbles to the front door of the rectory and pounds until, at last, a light comes on in the front hall and an elderly woman in a flannel robe answers.
"Land's sake, boy, what is it?" she scolds. "It's not even the crack of dawn with you smashing the door and the good father lying upstairs so ill."
"My sister's got the fever," he blurts. "My ma sent me for the priest folks say can stop it."
The woman scowls and shakes a fat finger. "Didn't I just say he's?"
Before she can finish. Dylan hears a deeper, hoarser version of his sister's slurried cough behind the woman. He sees a tall, exhausted man. The priest puts Dylan in mind of a heron on a spring pond: stooped, gaunt, fishhungering and yellow-eyed. An oval of damp silver hair fringes a bald head so drawn down of flesh it seems a skull. Dylan takes a step backward from the apparition.
The priest coughs again before extending his palm. "What is it, my son?"
"My sister," he stammers. "Momma said you been helping some folks with the fever and we done lost our Gammy and my auntie Kate already . . . Momma hoped"
"I'll come," the priest says.
The elderly woman grabs his elbow. "Father D'Angelo, you're sick enough yourself and the weather . . ."
"I am not important," the priest replies thickly. "The girl is. Help me get prepared."
Dylan lets the priest ride the horse. He leads the mare up through the rain and into the snow falling at the altitude of the cabin. Father D'Angelo says little during the hour march and what support he gives the boy is soon drowned out by the ravages of his coughing. Twice Dylan looks back at the priest, who stares off as if into a bottomless valley.

Weird . . .
I've recently been getting into books lately,..and the first one my friend picked up for me was Ghost Dance. I read the back and thought, what the heck. Well, i started reading the first few pages and then i couldn't stop reading. I was taking like two hour lunches just trying to read as much as i could before getting back to slave labor. This book has a great story, awesome twists and turns an intense climax...it even had a touching ending in a cool way that i almost cried. I highy..Highly recomend this book to anyone who loves great a page turner!
I read The Purification Ceremony by Mark Sullivan a few days ago. I was expecting more of the same type of story line, action, chase the bad guys and kill him. Not that all this is not in this book, it is packed full of it. I wasn¿t expecting the duel story line. What a wonderful surprise the history story line is. Again, I hung on to every word that Mr. Sullivan wrote in this tight plot. Ghost Dance is more complex than The Purification Ceremony. The author does a great job at weaving everything together. I loved the visions, ghost, etc. I love this type of story any way. You can never out run the past. Mr. Sullivan does a great job of explaining Native American lore and how it intertwines with modern believes. I thank Mark Sullivan for putting so much time and effort into this story. It was great! This is what reading is all about, entertaining the reader. I highly recommended this book. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Airtight Case What A Great Series! Beverly Connor has a wonderful series going with her protagonist Lindsay Chamberlain. This latest addition shows that Ms. Connor has progressed as a writer. This is the best one in a very good series, all of which I have given 4 or 5 stars to in my reviews. Once again, Ms. Connor gives us a past and present mystery. Which is solved with a good solid plot and characterization. In Airtight Case, Ms. Connor shows even more complex plotting than in the other installations. The author never lost me with this plot. I hung onto every word. The ending was well explained and logical. Ms. Connor¿s strongest point is her characterization, not only of her ¿active¿ characters, but also the ones from the past. Reading a Beverly Connor book is like reading two books in one. Both plots converge in the end and it is a fun trip in getting there. I look forward to the next installment in this wonderful and fun series. I highly recommend this book and series.

Today, words fail me as I write this, for it is a sad day today. I lost a teacher, a mentor and above all, A Friend.
Today, we say goodbye to Shannon Gifford, our beloved teacher and sewing enthusiast. After battling with cancer for more than one year Shannon passed away last night with a smile on her face. She talked about her life for which she was thankful and grateful. She talked about her family, her friends and her students whom she loved.
From FBA to Stitch and Flip Jacket construction to her Beginner 101 sewing classes, Shannon de-mystified the sewing process for everyone. While teaching, she went above and beyond to help students achieve the perfect fit whether it was a small dart or a princess seam, she never gave up. She always had a solution for every sewing dilemma. Even in her last days, she was giving sewing tips!
Besides teaching Sewing Classes on PatternReview, Shannon ran sensiblesewing.com, a website dedicated to help sewers from all around the world. In her newsletter, she talked about interesting sewing projects, addressed fit issues and talked about sewing and fashion trends. Shannon also developed an eBook on zipper techniques which was very well received! Always ready to help sewers in any way she can, Shannon was truly and completely devoted to the art of Sewing.
Shannon was much loved on PatternReview and worldwide in the sewing community. Hundreds of e-mails poured in when I asked if people wanted to send prayers her way which was compiled into two booklets and sent to her. Just goes on to show how many lives she touched with her kindness and generosity.
So, today as we grieve her loss, let us close our eyes and think of her. And if I may suggest, let us sew something this week in her honor.
Shannon, you will be missed deeply.

News Local Environment
posted by June 6 at 10:07 AMon
For a second I thought the Seattle Times was about to go for it this morning.
Their lead editorial today begins: "President George W. Bush is not fooling any of his G-8 colleagues in Germany with his belated call to set long-term goals reducing emissions related to global warming. The same is true here at home."
When they said "here at home" I thought they were about to take it to the 2007 state legislature for failing to act like it's 2007.
Nah. Easier to bash George Bush, I guess.
Look, thanks to the fact that our state's leaders chickened out on the necessary reality check, voters are about to vote on a $17 billion (or $37 billion, if you measure it in year of expenditure dollars) roads and transit package.
I wrote about this blackmail package two weeks ago and ECB's got the latest coming out in today's paper. And having just come back from a week on the east coast (transit options everywhere… as well as diversity, density, and good pizza people), I've gotta say, our inability to get smart about the environment is maddening, especially given the Dems' control of Olympia.
Oh well on that. As for seizing Al Gore's 2007 Academy Awardwinning moment and doing something real about the environment? This is the supermajority's biggest hoax this session. Under the guise of a "Strategic Framework for Action," the Democrats held a press conference and passed a law calling to convene a panel to come up with a way to limit emissions.
Okay, I'm being a little unfair. They did pass an emissions cap governing power plants that enter into new contracts with utilities. I'm not sure how much CO2 this limited rule will actually capture, though, given that the cap doesn't govern existing contracts. Nor am I sure how relevant reining in utility emissions is in Washington State. According to a February report from the state's Department of Community, Trade & Economic Development, emissions from utilities make up just 16 percent of the 88.3 million metric tons of greenhouse gases, including CO2, our state produces annually. The real culprit, according to the report, is "transportation" (cars)which makes up 45 percent of our emissions.
"It's a little embarrassing," one of the report's authors told me. "Our overall emissions are lower than most states, but we're on the high end for car emissions."
True: According to the most recent data from the federal Energy Information Administration, 52.4 percent of the Evergreen state's CO2 emissions come from transportation, making us one of the top five offenders, along with California (59.4 percent). Nationwide, the average is 32.7 percent.
On this score, the supermajority Democrats blew it. They not only failed to put a check on car dependency, they actually accelerated the problem. Rather than putting guidelines on the $7 billion RTID roads package they authorizedlike demanding the projects assess transit alternatives (a bill that died in the house)they officially made transit dependent on building roads, by linking RTID to light rail under one ballot title. Meanwhile, they approved another $7.5 billion roads package, including $915 million for work on the Alaskan Way Viaduct that may lock in a highway option there.
When the task force on emissions finally comes back next year with recommendations on how to lower CO2 their first suggestion should be aimed at the Democrats: less hot air, more action.

Go Daddy Said Valued at $2.25 Billion in KKR, Silver Lake Buyout
Go Daddy Group Inc., the website registration and hosting company, announced a deal with KKR & Co., Silver Lake Partners and Technology Crossover Ventures, or TCV, that values the company at $2.25 billion, said a person with knowledge of the matter.
Bob Parsons, founder and chief executive officer, will keep a minority stake in the company, said the person, who declined to be identified because the financial terms of the deal weren't disclosed. Go Daddy, based in Scottsdale, Arizona, is teaming up with the firms because of their "technology expertise," according to a statement yesterday on its website.
KKR, Silver Lake and TCV are aiming to benefit from growth in the Internet, using Go Daddy's predictable revenue stream to expand and pay down debt taken on to finance the transactions. Go Daddy registers domain names and hosts websites for as little as $5 a month, and has more than 48 million domain names under management.
"We're just at the beginning of the Internet in terms of all the additional services a registry can sell to companies," said Lou Kerner, managing director of the private-shares group at Wedbush Securities Inc. in New York, before the announcement.
Silver Lake, which has offices in New York and Menlo Park, California, focuses on technology investments, and led the 2009 buyout of Skype from EBay Inc. KKR, the New York-based firm run by Henry Kravis and George Roberts, buys companies across industries.
Provocative Ads
Go Daddy has sought to raise its profile in recent years by running provocative ads during the Super Bowl featuring race-car driver Danica Patrick. Capital from new owners might help it reach a broader range of potential clients, including small and medium-sized businesses that need help running sites, Melanie Posey, an analyst with IDC in New York, said June 24 when talks between the company and the buyout firms were disclosed by a person with knowledge of the discussions.
"The domain-name business is an onramp that gives us the opportunity to cross-sell other products," said Herald Chen, a director at KKR who helped negotiate the deal. "Additional services is an area of growth."
Before founding Go Daddy, Parsons taught himself computer programming and started Parsons Technology in 1984 while working in his basement, according to his website. A decade later, he sold Parsons to Intuit Inc. for $64 million, the website says.
Go Daddy projects revenue will be about $1.1 billion this year, compared with $139.8 million in 2005. When Go Daddy filed for an initial public offering in 2006, it reported a net loss every year from 2001 through 2005.
Parsons said in a conference call after the announcement that Go Daddy is now generating a profit. He will become executive chairman and Warren Adelman, currently the president, will take over as CEO. The deal will be financed with 40 percent debt, he said.

"I'm only a four-dimensional creature. Haven't got a clue how to visualise infinity. Even Einstein hadn't. I know because I asked him."
"To see a world in a grain of sand And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand And eternity in an hour. ot their name. William James's mysticism chapter from 'Varieties of Relligious Experience' may help here."
"What I assert and believe to have demonstrated in this and earlier works is that following the finite there is a transfinite (which one could also call the supra-finite), that is an unbounded ascending lader of definite modes, which by their nature are not finite but infinite, but which just like the finite can be determined by well-defined and distinguishable numbers."
"It [the soul] is truly an image of the infinity of God, and no words can do justice to its grandeur."
"In certainty there is limitation; in uncertainty there is the loving magic of infinity dancing with our desires."

Vendor: Knox Software
E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
URL: http://www.knox-software.com/
Price: Variable, depending on the number of client computers. The shareware price is user-defined.
Reviewer: Charles Curley
Arkeia software presents a backup solution to administrators of heterogeneous networks of all sizes. From a one-computer shop to a large shop with hundreds of computers, Arkeia is designed to work on any size IP network. It also works cleanly with a mix of widely different operating systems. The product is aimed at professional network administrators, but don't let that scare you off. It is documented well enough that an amateur who is reasonably knowledgeable about Linux and his organization's network can set up and run the software. The product installs easily on Linux and on Windows 95. This is the kind of product that will make Linux a serious contender as a real-world operating system.
The server software can run on Linux, Solaris, SGI, AIX, HP-UX or SCO. Give it a fast connection to your network and one or more fast tape drives, and you are ready. Clients, in addition to the servers just listed, include Windows NT, Windows 95 and 98, Novell, VMS, ICL and others. The servers and clients communicate over TCP/IP, so the physical layer of your network doesn't matter. You don't need Windows sharing or NFS to do your backups.
To review the software, I downloaded the shareware version. I set up the server on my 333 MHz Pentium II Red Hat 5.0 Linux box and put the Windows 95 client on my 166 MHz Pentium laptop. They are connected over a TCP/IP network on Ethernet. The installation and operation manuals are in Adobe PDF format.
The software for Linux comes in gzipped tar files and contains its own installation software. The installation software inserts the NLSERVD daemon into the boot sequence and starts it running, so as soon as you finish the installation you are ready to use the product. Knox does not offer an RPM version. The software goes into its own /usr subdirectory and uses one file of its own under /etc, so there is no conflict with an RPM system.
The Windows 95 client software is delivered in a professionally done InstallShield package. The average Windows user who can install his own software will be able to install it with no problem. It correctly saves and restores Windows 95 attributes—something backups over SAMBA to a non-Windows tape server won't necessarily do. The Windows 95 client will not back up a file while Word 6 has it open, but will get the automatic backup file if there is one. This is a failing of Windows 95, not Arkeia; the only workaround is for users to shut down programs when they leave for the day.
The interface for the software is a GUI using X on Linux. It was a bit disconcerting when I first saw it but is internally consistent, and I quickly learned to use it. Tool tips make the software much easier to use.
Because the software is clearly designed to support large shops, Arkeia is conceptually more complicated than typical backup software such as BRU. Before you can even do a test backup, you must define a number of objects.
You must define tapes to the system. Provisions are made for writing labels with bar codes for use with robot arms. (Since I don't have a robot arm, I was unable to test that part of the system.)
Tapes are combined into tape pools. The software rotates the tapes within each pool as needed.
You also define "savepacks". These are the computers and directories on the computers to be backed up in units. For example, I have a savepack that consists of my laptop. I could easily define a savepack that consists of several computers (say, a department of a company) or one that consists of a single directory on one machine (such as an engineer's CAD drawings).
Customer support, even for the shareware package, is excellent. I made an error and e-mailed the support address for help. They replied with a preliminary diagnosis and a request for some log files. I returned those and got a diagnosis back within 24 hours of my first e-mail. Try that with any large software vendor. I was favorably impressed. I also made some suggestions for improving the product. The return e-mail indicated that my suggestions will be seriously considered. Again, Knox compares favorably with many software vendors.
One thing I like in a backup package, but is missing, is a manual retension command. Of course, I can use mt retension on most any UNIX or Linux box. Arkeia also has a provision for a user-defined command-line operation before and after each backup. If you like retensions before each use of a tape, add it here. This is customization I have not seen with other tape backup programs.
Scheduled backups are essential in any production shop. Defining them is simple and flexible. You can run daily, weekly, monthly and yearly backups. Periodic backups are defined in terms of savepacks and tape pools. For unattended backup, you can require a new tape with each backup.
Pricing is reasonable compared to an NT server network backup package. The shareware version has no set price, but a quarter of contributions over $20 will be contributed to Software in the Public Interest, the organization which supports the Debian Linux distribution. Details are readily available on the Knox web site.
Using Arkeia on Linux means no expensive NT server licenses. It also means you can find a use for that old 486 box the IT department has been using for a doorstop because NT on anything short of a Pentium 200 is too slow to use.
Network backup is probably the mission-critical application in any organization. I have no qualms about recommending Arkeia on Linux for that application. If you want to investigate this package further, get the manual from Knox's web site and read it. Better yet, get the manual and the software and use them, as I did.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Chocolate-Espresso Mini Souffles
Total Time
Prep 30 mins
Cook 45 mins
From Fine Cooking Website. The preparation time includes 30 min. chill time. These can be made ahead and frozen for up to 2 weeks before baking.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces, more
- unsalted butter, for the ramekins
- granulated sugar, for dusting
- 1 tablespoon dark rum or 1 tablespoon brandy or 1 tablespoon water
- 1⁄2 teaspoon espresso powder or 1⁄2 teaspoon instant coffee granules
- 2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
- 1 pinch table salt
- 1 large egg, separated and at room temperature
- 1⁄4 cup confectioners' sugar
- Lightly butter two 6-oz. ramekins and dust with granulated sugar, tapping out excess. Set the ramekins on a small baking sheet.
- Stir together the liquor or water and the espresso powder. Set aside and stir occasionally until the coffee is dissolved. Melt the chocolate and butter in a medium metal bowl over a pan of simmering water or in a microwave. Remove from the heat and whisk until glossy and smooth. Stir in the coffee mixture and the salt. Whisk in the egg yolks, one at a time. Add about one-third of the confectioners' sugar and whisk until well blended and smooth. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until they're very foamy and they're just beginning to hold soft peaks. Increase the speed to high and gradually sprinkle in the remaining confectioners' sugar. Continue beating until the peaks are firm and glossy. Spoon about one-quarter of the beaten whites into the chocolate mixture and whisk until blended. Add the remaining whites and gently fold them in until just blended. Pour evenly into prepared ramekins (the mixture will almost completely fill the ramekins). If you want to bake the soufflés within 24 hours, refrigerate them. (To refrigerate: Chill for about 30 minutes, and then cover in plastic and return to the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.) If you want to hold them for longer, freeze them according to the make-ahead tips below.
- Heat the oven to 400°F Unwrap the ramekins, set them on a baking sheet, and bake until they're puffed and risen about 1 inch above the ramekin, 15 minute The top will still be slightly sunken in the center; consider it a place to pop in a few berries or a dollop of whipped cream. Remove the soufflés from the oven and serve immediately.
- Make Ahead Tips: Put the filled ramekins into the freezer, uncovered, for 20 minute Then wrap each ramekin well in plastic and freeze for up to two weeks. To bake straight from the freezer, unwrap the ramekins and set on a small baking sheet or jellyroll pan. Let them sit for 20 minute while heating the oven to 400°F Bake on the baking sheet until puffed and risen about 1 inch above the ramekin, 18 minute Remove from the oven and serve immediately.

I subscribe to Fine Cooking and have made these a number of times since they appeared there. They are fabulous little souffles. I always use cognac and Ghirardelli chocolate with spectacular results. For clarification, you do not have to chill the souffles for 30 minutes as the intro comments here would seem to suggest. The 30-minute chill time is part of the refrigeration instructions should you not be baking them right away. If you're baking immediately, just mix, pour and bake!
Delicious! I didn't have the right size ramekins, so I put all the batter in a mini casserole dish, and baked it a few minutes longer. Not as pretty, but still tasted amazing! I will definately make this again!
This was so good and so easy to make! I made it the day before and baked it the next day as per instructions. Will try to make it ahead and freeze for 2 weeks method next time...I just love a good recipe that can be made ahead of time!

The Briton's two-stop strategy, married to a third-row starting berth, meant he was a permanent fixture at the front of the race, even leading for three laps.
He looked well-placed for at least a podium heading into the final sequence of pitstops, but he lost second to the Lotus of Kimi Raikkonen and then came under increasing pressure from the Finn's team-mate Romain Grosjean. The latter was able to find a way through six laps from the end.
Despite losing out on a breakthrough grand prix rostrum, di Resta emphasised the positives he and Force India were able to take from the race.
"Overall we can be positive. It does [match my best result] and it's probably the strongest race I've had," di Resta said.
"I ran very strong in race and was strong throughout the weekend. I led for quite a while. We can be on the podium one day.
"[The podium fight] was very close. We were always going to be disadvantaged with our strategy and unfortunately I think Grosjean not qualifying, and having two new sets of medium tyres, [was] always going to be strong.
"Had he got caught up behind [Mark] Webber I think I'd have been OK.
"[Fourth] is a big credit to all the boys. We didn't get the rewards in Malaysia but to come away with one really good results before the European season is very good - and we've got some goodies coming [for Spain]."

Pseduacris streckeri, also known as Strecker's chorus frog, is found in portions of the United States west of the Rocky Mountains, which acts as a geographic barrier. The range extends from southern Kansas to southern Texas. Isolated populations exist in central and southern Illinois, southeastern Missouri, and small parts of western Arkansas. Although questionable, it also may occur in northern Mexico. Data from Mexico, however, remains unreliable. There are no introduced populations.

Each morning this past week, sea mist would drift through the redwood forests, creating a mystical - almost magical world. A little difficult to photograph - I still need to learn more about my camera.
Hey would you mind if I used this picture for my blog?
You've caught some of the mystery in the photo... because I almost wondered it if was real. I showed it to my granddaughter and she asked if it was a painting. Gorgeous!
It's a beautiful place. I'd love to go there again.
I need to make it the first time as an adult. My parents took me through when I was a child, but I don't remember it.
this looks like a scene out of the movie called Legend, love the photo ^_^

Oh I wish I was there too. It looks like some fairy tale story belongs there.

Looks like you were visiting Endor. Where are the Ewoks?
Beautiful, but it comes up very dark on my screen. Was this a gloomy shot, or do I need to adjust my levels?
It was a dark, misty morning in the forest. However, it does show up well on the PCs and Macs in my lab. You might try adjusting your monitor's brightness to see if it makes a difference.
Wow! Your forests are so different to ours!
(I live in New Zealand)
(I live in New Zealand)
It's amazing the difference in the forests as we traveled from the coast inland. So even within a couple hundred miles, tremendously different forests.
Where was this?
I'm so jealous of you and this great picture.
To me, it looks like a dream. In reality this all exists. Absolutely breathtaking!
Awesome Shot
Still this is very good shot.
I completely agree; I'm honestly expecting an elf to pop out of something.

A tigger is a petite, fine looking woman. Height of the tigger can vary as it's relative to the observer, but there must be at least 1ft difference in height between the tigger and the observer. it's a reference to Tigger from Winnie the Pooh. You just have to imagine her on top doing what a Tigger does best (bounces).

Will these displays be permanent or just for a few weeks? If temporary, will they be done annually or just the one time?
Are they going to be on the sidewalks along the Avenue presumably?

BERLIN Germany's export-driven economy appears to have entered a mild recession in the final months of 2011, hit by weaker world trade and a rapid loss in confidence due to the euro zone debt crisis, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) said on Monday.
The OECD expected Europe's largest economy to grow by 3.0 percent this year, followed by a modest 0.6 percent the next as exports fall and domestic firms become more hesitant to invest. In 2013, it forecast growth of 1.9 percent.
"The economy is facing a period of weakness reflecting a worldwide loss of confidence and lower world trade growth, which usually hits Germany more than others through weaker exports and investment," the OECD said in its twice-yearly Economic Outlook.
That was a more pessimistic view than that of Chancellor Angela Merkel's government, which last month slashed its forecast for growth next year to one percent from a previous 1.8 percent due to dampened expectations for exports.
"Real GDP returned to its pre-crisis level in the second quarter, but the economy appears to have entered a mild recession in the fourth quarter," the OECD said. "It has been hit by a marked deterioration of world trade and by a rapid loss in confidence related to the sovereign debt crisis in some euro area countries."
The OECD expected economic activity to recover gradually next year as uncertainty would decline and trade pick up.
"The recovery .. is likely to be stronger than in other euro area countries because in Germany there is no need for deleveraging in either the household or corporate sectors." the OECD said.
The main risks were a deeper slowdown in global trade and a substantial deterioration in German bank's balance sheets due to the euro bloc crisis, which might lead to sustained problems in credit availability, particularly for domestic spending.
A successful crisis resolution in combination with better regulated financial markets could unleash a longer and stronger upswing, but the overall risks were predominantly on the downside, the OECD said.
If conditions worsened significantly, Berlin should take temporary actions to boost demand, the OECD said, suggesting short-time work arrangements. It also advised Berlin to ease regulation in the services sector and review taxation.
"To support growth, the structure of taxation should be reviewed, and the burden shifted to immobile bases, including environmentally harmful activities, and away from mobile ones, notably labor, which is particularly highly taxed."

I am both a practicing artist and a high school art educator. My students and I not only enjoy seeing professional artists in their studios, but we also benefit from the Education Links program that brings some of those artists to our classroom to assist with instruction during our projects. Open Studios is absolutely invaluable to my students seeing themselves as emerging artists becoming vital parts of their communities.

Open Studios has helped to transform me from an amateur to a professional artist. I first exhibited in 2001. Since that time Open Studios has been my soul source of public exposure and sales. Each year I receive more kudos and invaluable feedback. Sales during the two weekends and resulting commissions have kept me prosperous and busy. And all this while having fun. I have nothing but praise for Open Studios. It is run with competence and compassion. It nurtures both the artist and the community. It is a source of great joy.

We have issues with Outlook and Exchange 2010: The global address book doesn't get updated on any Outlook clients (but works fine on the web access). We tried deleting the local address book and let the server push out the updated version, but after a local machine reboot, the global address book reverted back to the older version. We disabled Cached Exchange Mode and it seemed to fix the update issue, but we would like to keep that feature enabled.
Outlook 2010 downloads the OAB every 24 hours. The files are downloaded from OABVirtualDirectory and are updated every 8 hours (=Pollinterval 480). If OAB is manually updated, but not the OABVirtualDirectory, Outlook will have nothing to download.
Try this to update the OAB files:
This is a known condition for cached mode. It will always work on OWA because it always uses the online address book.
The link above has a reg entry you can put on the clients to always use the online Address Book, rather than the cached one.

Taliban and al Qaeda insurgents remain a grave threat to Afghanistan, a senior U.S. general told The Associated Press, warning against cutting the strength of the U.S.-led coalition so long as neither Afghan nor NATO forces are ready to fill the breach.
Maj. Gen. Eric Olson said he was concerned that American policy-makers will seize on an apparent drop in militant attacks to cut the 18,000-strong coalition — about 17,000 of whom are Americans — to ease the pressure on American forces stretched by their deployment in Iraq.
"The U.S. presence at the core of the coalition has been critical to success of the overall coalition effort," said Olson, the No. 2 U.S. commander in Afghanistan.
About 1,000 coalition troops are non-Americans, including a contingent of Egyptian medics, teams of French and Norwegian special forces, and a Romanian battalion in the southern city of Kandahar.
Olson said the operation is very taxing and there will be pressure to draw down forces while handing over more responsibility to what is now a 9,000-strong NATO security force.
"My fear is that will happen too fast, that the draw down will outrun the expansion or the compensation of NATO expansion," Olson said.
"I think there's still an insurgency to win here, and I think the Afghan central government is at this point very much dependent on the support of the coalition."
NATO plans to expand into western Afghanistan this year, then to the south, but the general said he was not convinced the alliance would match the numbers or capabilities of the U.S. units they eventually should replace.
He also said Afghanistan's new army and police would need five to 10 years before they could begin performing properly.
Olson reiterated that the trail of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden had "gone cold," but he said U.S. forces were continuing their search and he did not anticipate any letup in that part of their mission.
"There are no specific leads to bin Laden right now, but we collectively are just as determined to continue to hunt him," he said.
Olson spoke to the AP after visiting troops at three remote bases near the mountainous Pakistani border, where militants continue to undermine security.
Under Olson, who leaves Afghanistan next month, U.S. troops have set up several small bases across the country's south and east to back up officials from U.S.-backed President Hamid Karzai's government and to intercept militants crossing from Pakistan.
Commanders say that decision helped protect landmark October elections and has persuaded many ordinary Afghans to turn their back on the Taliban — gains Olson said could quickly be lost.
In a reminder of the country's insecurity, suspected Taliban insurgents launched three separate attacks on Thursday, reportedly killing nine Afghan troops and wounding an American soldier while sustaining heavy casualties themselves. Ten insurgents were killed.
The violence followed a period of relative calm in Afghanistan amid rising hopes that the insurgency is faltering. Taliban spokesmen have said attacks are down only because of the harsh winter, and they would resume once the weather improved.
An A-10 ground attack aircraft from Bagram Air Base, north of the capital, circled high over the snowcapped mountains surrounding one base as Olson handed out awards, including Bronze Stars, to troops from the Hawaii-based 25th Infantry Division.
Olson also praised Pakistan for a bloody crackdown on militants, including suspected al Qaeda fighters on their side of the border, but said they had "by no means" finished off forces with ambitions to retake Afghanistan.
"I honestly believe that (militant) pressure from Pakistan and a drawdown in Afghanistan would be an incredibly volatile combination," he said.
