A yield spread perspective on the great financial crisis: break-point test evidence
We use a simple partial adjustment econometric framework to investigate the effects of the crisis on the dynamic properties of a number of yield spreads. We find that the crisis has caused substantial disruptions revealed by changes in the persistence of the shocks to spreads as much as by in their unconditional mean levels. Formal breakpoint tests confirm that the financial crisis has been over approximately since the Spring of 2009. The financial crisis can be conservatively dated as a August 2007 – June 2009 phenomenon, although some yield spread series seem to point out to an end of the most serious disruptions as early as in December 2008. We uncover evidence that the LSAP program implemented by the Fed in the US residential mortgage market has been effective, in the sense that the risk premia in this market have been uniquely shielded from the disruptive effects of the crisis.

Hi gentlemen,
There is a function in my class for some rendering job, and I would like to pass two matrix , view and projection from my Camera class to this external function.
its prototype is like
[source lang="cpp"]Draw(ID3D11Device* device, XMMATRIX view, XMMATRIX projection){ //...... ......//}[/source]
I get error messages like
[source lang="cpp"]Error 10 error C2719: 'view': formal parameter with __declspec(align('16')) won't be aligned[/source]
I 've googled and some say it's a known vector and Align data issue and MS will fix this in VC11.
Any idea How I can fix this?
Thank you and have a nice day!
Get error when I try to use XMMATRIX type as an function variable

Trying passing by reference or a pointer, the error occurs because the compiler cannot guarantee the alignment of function parameters passed on the stack (technically it can, but VS2010 and lower have horrible stack alignment handling). the alternative is to covert to a XMFLOAT4X4 which has no alignment requirement, but this adds extra overhead and painful conversion code.

text: Hello. My son and I will have a half day to spend around Nairobi before our late night flight departs. We would like to visit the Giraffe Centre and then the elephant orphanage at 5pm (we have fostered a baby). We will be dropped off at the Giraffe Centre around 1:00pm. My question is, is the Karen Blixen Museum on the same property as the Giraffe Centre? I am trying to figure out if 3-4 hours is too much time at the Giraffe Centre. If we can also see the museum, souvenir shop, and possibly grab a bite to eat I think 3-4 hours would be fine, but I don't know if we can walk from the Giraffe Centre to the museum. A driver will then take us to the elephant orphage...or is that walking distance from the Giraffe Centre? Thanks for your help and advice.

First, let me say that I love what I've been able to do with Suffusion so far! We've had a hand-coded website for a while, and we're trying to migrate the content to wordpress. I would like to create an accordion-style navigation menu in wordpress that's similar to our menu at http://www.joyproject.org, but so far have had no luck. So far, all menu links (in wordpress) are shown all on one level, even if links are set to have parents. I've also tried jQuery accordion menu, but after building the custom menu and enabling it on our site, I also had no luck.
Essentially, my question is: How do I make an expandable/collapsible sidebar navigation menu in Suffusion? And what is the best method for defining sub-level pages?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Look for statues downtown this fallJune 12,2013By Gordon Dritschilo
Staff Writer
The Downtown Rutland Partnership plans to line Merchants Row with statues.
Executive Director Michael Coppinger announced Wednesday that the partnership plans to place a sculpture garden in the grass along the sidewalk at the edge of the downtown shopping plaza.
"We're hoping this will be an active garden," he said. "We're hoping it will be a draw from the farmers market on Saturdays."
Coppinger said the idea is to place four to six sculptures in the city right of way with the intention of replacing them every year or so — hopefully as the artists sell the sculptures.
The partnership will need permission from the city, and Coppinger said he plans to meet with Board of Aldermen later this summer. He said he hopes to have the garden in place in the fall.
Coppinger said the partnership would put in the infrastructure and do the landscaping through the garden and was working with the Chaffee Art Center to recruit sculptors.
Chaffee Executive Director Margaret Barros said she had reached out to her members as well as to the Carving Studio & Sculpture Center in West Rutland and was seeing significant interest. Barros said there were plenty of local sculptors whose work could fit on one of the planned bases, which will be around 3 feet by 4 feet, or 4 feet by 5 feet.
"It's not huge," she said. "I'm looking at a pedestal right in front of me that's 2 by 4½ feet. You could have a pretty dramatic piece on it. It doesn't have to be tall — it just has to have a presence."
Barros said she will look for pieces that could be studied in detail by pedestrians but still noticed and appreciated by passing motorists.

Now that there's a new release, I was waiting for the email with the update notice. But that didn't happen.
It did update Twenty Twelve, but not Core.
I thought that it might have been Beta Tester, but it didn't update after I switched to Point Release Nightlies.
And I got the same problem on my other site. So I have the same problem upgrading from both 3.4.2 and 3.5-RC6.
Also... I think the problem exists since 0.8.2, because I haven't had upgrade notices about RCs and nightlies since that update.

The Greasy Greens may not ever make the cover of Rolling Stone magazine, but the Little Rock, Ark., band's place in music history is secure, thanks to President Clinton.
"When he was governor, he liked the band, and he used to bring his saxophone around and sit in with us," said Pat Henry, a Childress native who plays trumpet and piano. "He's asked us two or three times (to play at the White House), but we have not accepted until now. We figured we better go while we can."
The invitation is supposed to be a surprise, Henry said. The band is scheduled to begin playing when Clinton walks onto the White House lawn for his 53rd birthday celebration Thursday.
Henry, a 1967 graduate of Childress High School and a 1972 graduate of West Texas State University, runs a payroll processing service in Little Rock. He plays music as a hobby.
"It's pretty serious fun," Henry said. "I played 112 jobs last year and plan to play about 130 this year. So it's for fun and profit."
He said the Greasy Greens, who disbanded several years ago but get together for an annual reunion, developed a cult following in the Little Rock area. That following includes the president.
"We were kind of an eclectic, showy band that did a lot of jazzy tunes," Henry said. "Clinton referred to us as the most creative band he's ever seen. We're not as creative anymore. We have the same ideas as we had back then."
Henry said he has talked with the president about music several times.
"He's actually a pretty good (music) reader," he said. "He's not a good jammer, but he reads music reasonably well. He sounds like somebody who used to be good."
But Henry said he's never talked politics with Clinton, and he hopes the subject doesn't come up at the White House.
"I'm a Republican," Henry said. "It would be wise to keep my mouth shut and go play the gig."
GOODWELL, Okla. - Enrollment at Oklahoma Panhandle State University is up more than 6 percent from a year ago, and the school's public information director is attributing it to changes in faculty and staff.
Karen Lang said 1,124 students enrolled through Monday, about 70 more than a year ago at the same time. Today is the first day of classes, she said.
Lang said 28 percent of OPSU's faculty and staff is new.
"We had a lot of people who had been here several years move on," Lang said. "Now, younger people are moving in (as staff) and have gotten excited. We've got more for the kids to do. We're talking to the kids more and getting them interested in the university. The students are pumped up. This has turned out to be a real positive thing for the university."
Changes at OPSU include a new dean of student affairs, two new agriculture instructors, a new rodeo coach, a new instructor in the business department, a new music director, a new baseball coach, three new science instructors and a new high school relations director, Lang said.
"The whole atmosphere here is more upbeat and positive," Lang said. "Even the ones (on the staff) who have stayed have gotten more excited."

Keep warm and ride on
As the seasons change, the air becomes crisp and the leaves turn a myriad of earth tones and oranges. Early in the season, the canopy of colors is an ideal scenery for a training ride or a leisurely leg-stretching.

GOP Senate Candidate Admits To Owning Stock In Companies That Do Business With Iran
Wisconsin U.S. Senate candidate Tommy Thompson (R) acknowledged during a debate on Thursday that he recently sold stock in a company that did business with Iran, only after news reports highlighted his interests in the companies. The admission came as the former governor accused challenger Rep. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) of being soft on the regime and voting against sanctions.
"I was so disturbed after having heard some of your rhetoric around my position on Iran to have read a report just hours before taking this stage that you have tens of thousands of dollars in investments in companies that do business with Iran, including a company that teams up with Iran doing Uranium mining in Africa," Baldwin said in reaction to Thompson's attacks. "I find that shocking. And, if you want to be tough on Iran, we have to isolate Iran. We have to make sure that companies don't do business, to make sure that they are isolated in the world stage."
Thompson responded by accusing Baldwin of opposing international sanctions and accepting $60,000 from Council for a Livable World — a group that supports "a negotiated solution to Iran's nuclear program" and opposes military force:
THOMPSON: She also received a $60,000 in campaign funds, $60,000, ladies and gentleman, for a campaign from a company that believes and supports no sanctions in Iran. I heard about this stock…
BALDWIN: Who are you talking about?
THOMPSON: I heard about this stock. Wait a minute, let me finish. Let me finish, you had two minutes, let me finish. You want to interrupt me, Joe Biden, just give me a chance. The other thing is, ladies and gentlemen, is that she is talking about stock. I did not know about the fact that my stockbroker had purchased two shares, two company stocks. I sold it. I sold it today. I found out today and I sold it today. I do not tolerate, I do not agree with anybody doing business with Iran, none whatsoever. And I think you should turn back the $60,000 you got from that company that supports no sanctions for Iran.
Watch it:
Thompson's personal financial disclosure show that he owns up $50,000 worth of stock in multiple firms that are owned by China and Russia and do business in Iran. As the Huffington Post's Michael McAuliff reports, Thompson has "up to $1,000 in the China National Offshore Oil Corporation, Gazprom and the China National Petroleum Corporation, which were all cited in a recent Government Accountability Office study as having done business with Iran." He also "owns up to $17,000 worth of stock in Royal Dutch Shell, which the GAO also named, and between $1,000 and $15,000 worth of stock in oil services firm Schlumberger, which has been probed by the Justice Department over its Iran work." Finally, Thompson maintained "between $1,000 and $15,000 worth of stock in the mining operation Rio Tinto, which is partners with Iran in mining uranium. Iran owns 15 percent of a uranium mining operation in Namibia with Rio Tinto."

Resuming this morning on 108, Ryder didn't let a brief ground
delay due to overnight rain put him off his stride, as he
continued his assault on the CD bowling attack.
The big left-hander, who has made himself unavailable for the
national side as he works through his personal issues, was
eventually dislodged by pace bowler Andrew Mathieson with 162
runs next to his name.
His three-and-a-half hour knock included 20 fours and four
sixes and overshadowed the solid century that veteran opener
Michael Papps put together as the pair added 256 - a record
for Wellington against CD for the third wicket.
Papps crafted 117 and was one of three wickets claimed by
debutant spinner Ajaz Patel (3-62) and Wellington were bowled
out for 403 in reply to Central's first innings of 260.
Trailing by plenty on the first dig, CD went out and produced
a solid start to their second innings as openers Jamie How
and Jeet Raval went about erasing the 143-run deficit.
How was dismissed late in the day for 51, his 32nd
first-class half century, but Raval finished the day unbeaten
on 35, alongside night watchman Roald Badenhorst who added
eight, as CD closed play on 98-1, 45 runs behind.
CD will need to dig in and bat for a majority of day three
tomorrow if they want to fight back against Wellington and
ensure they put themselves in a position where they can't
lose the game.

Harley Quinn's Greatest Moments from "Batman: The Animated Series"
TV, Comic Books
Marvel Comics editor-in-chief Axel Alonso recently appeared on MSNBC to talk about the publisher's newest title "Red Wolf," which will feature a Native American hero from the American Southwest. The comic will hail from writer Nathan Edmondson, interior artist Dalibor Talajic and cover artist Jeffrey Veregge, himself a member of the Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribe.
"Back in the '70s, Red Wolf was a character who existed in the Wild West, and he was sort of a Native American Avenger with a red wolf by his side," Alonso explained. "What we're doing is we're taking that character and we're bringing him into the Marvel Universe, where he's going to run alongside Spider-Man, the Avengers, the X-Men… He is best described as a Native American MacGyver. He's a handy individual who's able to adapt to almost anything and he'll need to."
Though he won't have superpowers, this new incarnation of Red Wolf will have "the ability to adapt to all circumstances and find a weapon or tool in almost anything available."
Creators | In a new profile of Naif Al-Mutawa, the creator of the Islamic superhero comic The 99 addresses the death threats made against him by ISIS and the fatwa issued against the animated adaptation in Saudi Arabia, and reveals he recently met with Kuwaiti police "to answer the charges of being a heretic." Mutawa also blames pressure from "a handful of conservative bloggers" in the United States for The Hub not following through with plans to air the animated series. He said that after President Obama praised his work in 2010, attacks on him escalated in the United States, where he was painted as a jihadist "intent on radicalizing young kids to make them suicide bombers. And here [in the Gulf] I became an apostate Zionist. My mother told me growing up, be careful who your friends are because you end up inheriting their enemies. And that's what happened: I don't know President Obama. I'm very honored he called me out. But the hate became magnified after that." [Al-Monitor]
Publishing | Admitting that "I don't think men are as sexualized as women" in Marvel comics, Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso says the publisher is moving toward including more types of female characters: "We believe there's an audience of women out there who are hungry for this and we want to make sure they get it. This is affirmative action. This is capitalism." Later he states, "I challenge you to find in Ms. Marvel anything that resembles the Playboy model standard. But I don't want to be Mr. Goody-Two-Shoes. We're creating stories. I don't want to say there's no room for stuff that's not just fun. Then you're censoring yourself. I want to make sure I have books like Ms. Marvel and Black Widow that I'm proud about and could give to my daughter. But at the same time I don't want to be the PC police and say you can't be naughty; you can't be fun." [The Telegraph]
[Editor's note: Each Sunday, Robot 6 contributors discuss the best in comics from the last seven days — from news and announcements to a great comic that came out to something cool creators or fans have done.]
I was pleased to see Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso acknowledge concerns over the variant cover by Milo Manara for Spider-Woman #1, and even go so far as to explicitly apologize for the mixed message the cover caused.
"We always listen to fans' concerns so we can do better by them," Alonso stated to CBR for Friday's installment of the weekly Axel-in-Charge interview column. "We want everyone — the widest breadth of fans — to feel welcome to read Spider-Woman. We apologize — I apologize — for the mixed messaging that this variant caused."
He went on to note that it is not the official cover for the series, and is equally not as representative of the title as a pet variant by Skottie Young might be. That's a fair point. However, I would argue that there is a difference between a Milo Manara variant and any other random variant. That cover exists within the context of the title character of the comic and the historical depiction of women in comics, if not media in general, juxtaposed with a cartoonist known for erotica being commissioned to provide material for a comic with a T+ rating (13 and above).
"We always listen to fans' concerns so we can do better by them. We want everyone — the widest breadth of fans — to feel welcome to read Spider-Woman. We apologize — I apologize — for the mixed messaging that this variant caused.
And that's what this cover is. It's a limited edition variant that is aimed at collectors. While we would not have published this as the main cover to the book, we were comfortable publishing this as a variant that represented one artist's vision of the character — a world-renowned artist whose oeuvre is well-known to us, and to collectors. It is not the official cover for the issue. It is a collector's item that is set aside or special ordered by completists — and it doesn't reflect the sensibility or tone of the series any more than the Skottie Young variant or Rocket and Groot Spider-Woman variants. If you open up the book, you'll see that this series has everything in common with recent launches we've done, like Black Widow and Ms. Marvel and She-Hulk and Captain Marvel. It's about the adventures of two women that have complete agency over their lives, and that are defined by what they do, not how they look.
We're far from perfect, but we're trying. It's been a priority for me as EIC to make our line and our publishing team more inclusive. We're at an industry high of around 30 percent female in editorial group, about 20 percent of our line is comics starring women, and our Senior Manager of Talent, Jeanine Schaefer, actively looks to bring more female writers and artists into the fold each month. In fact, very soon we'll be announcing new series and creators that I'm very excited about."
– Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso, addressing criticism of the Milo Manara variant cover for Spider-Woman #1, in this week's "Axel-in-Charge" on CBR
Publishing | The latest BookScan numbers reveal June was a good month for manga in bookstores, with eight volumes of Attack on Titan making the top 20 — a new record. The first volume topped the list, which means new readers are still discovering Hajime Isayama's dark fantasy. Overall, manga had a slight edge, with 11 titles, and all three volumes of Saga were on the list, but only one volume of The Walking Dead. And despite the Amazon-Hachette battle, the Yen Press title Sword Art Online: Aincrad made the chart. [ICv2]
Publishing | ICv2 and Comichron's John Jackson Miller joined forces to calculate the size of the entire comics market, including the direct market, bookstore and digital channels, and both single issues and graphic novels. Inevitably some things get left out, such as subscription services, sales to libraries and the juggernaut that is the Scholastic Book Fair, but it's a good snapshot. The bottom line: $850 million in 2013. [Comichron]
"On the Internet, sometimes what appears to be an explosion is really just a fart. The accusations are totally without merit. A handful of people who have it in for Rick started a witch hunt against him, claiming he had written a scene in Captain America #22 that portrayed the Falcon engaging in what amounted to statutory rape. They used social media to spread the word, and we got some angry emails — about 90 percent which came from people who stated right out the gate that hadn't even read the issue, but were incensed by what they'd heard Rick had written.
Let me be clear: An attack on Rick's integrity is an attack on Marvel's integrity. We would never publish a scene that had one of our super heroes engage in such an act. Jet Black is a 23-year-old woman. She was a pre-teen at the start of Rick's run, but since that time, the book has jumped forward 13 years in the future, and Jet — along with Steve and Ian — has aged 13 years. In Captain America #22, it is explicitly stated that Jet is 23, and she is rendered [by artist Carlos Pacheco] as a fully adult woman. Jet Black is a 23-year-old woman. End of story."
– Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso, talking with Comic Book Resources about the social-media firestorm that followed the release of Captain America #22
Manga | Attack on Titan is as much of a manga juggernaut in its native Japan as it is the United States, and the 13th volume had a print run of 2.75 million copies, a new record not only for the series but for publisher Kodansha. [Crunchyroll]
Comics | Tom Risen has a thoughtful piece, which includes an interview with Axel Alonso, on how superhero comics have changed since the War on Terror began: "Superheroes since the 2000s have increasingly held up a mirror to controversies like mass surveillance, remote killings using drones and the 'with us or against us' mentality espoused by former President George W. Bush. Misuse of military technology also played a key role in recent movie adaptations featuring Batman, Spider-Man, Captain America and Iron Man, showing how fighting dirty to defeat evil can make America its own worst enemy." [U.S. News & World Report]
Legal | The creator of the Islamic superhero comic The 99 says he hasn't been officially notified of a reported ban of the animated adaptation of his comic in Saudi Arabia. "Nobody ever contacted me, nobody ever asked me any questions," Naif Al Mutawa says. There have been numerous Twitter campaigns against me for a while now and so for me it's not new. Maybe it is true this time, but I find it very difficult to believe that a group as influential and high profile as them [Saudi Arabia's Permanent Committee for Scholarly Research and Ifta] wouldn't recognize the good that The 99 has done for Muslims around the world." He adds that the comic has been available in Saudi Arabia for seven years, while the cartoon has been airing for two and a half years, making the timing of a ban "a bit weird." [Gulf Business]
To help promote its All-New Ghost Rider, which introduces a new Spirit of Vengeance with a new vehicle, Marvel is turning to some folks who know a little bit stylish rides: the editors of Lowrider Magazine.
As part of a new partnership, new Robbie Reyes Ghost Rider (and a scantily clad friend) will grace the cover of the magazine's special April issue, "Marvelous Mayhem," with an illustration by series writer Felipe Smith. Inside, readers will find an interview with Smith and Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso, as well as artwork by Tradd Moore from All-New Ghost Rider #1.
"While we don't have any market research, the eyes don't lie. If you go to conventions and comic book stores, more and more female readers are emerging. They are starved for content and looking for content they can relate to."
– Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso, discussing comics' shifting demographics
If there are Marvel fans who aren't following Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso on Twitter, they're missing out on a lot of previews of upcoming comics in various states of production. For instance, on Wednesday he unveiled a first look at a colored page from the first issue of Moon Knight, by Warren Ellis, Declan Shalvey and Jordie Bellaire.
Launching in March, the series returns Marc Spector to the streets of New York City, and places the focus on the character's horror roots.
"The book is filled with oddities," Shalvey told Comic Book Resources last month. "It starts with a man in a white suit and mask with big moon on his forehead, remember. I will say this: Moon Knight investigates the strange and dark corners of the Marvel Universe, and boy, there are weird things there."
While much of the comics industry is caught in that bubble between Christmas and New Year's Eve, Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso is busy tweeting sneak peeks at art from a handful of titles, including the debut issue of Moon Knight by Warren Ellis and Declan Shalvey.
Among the other offerings are pages from All-New Ghost Rider #2 by Felipe Smith and Tradd Moore, Winter Soldier: The Bitter March #1 by Rick Remender and Roland Boschi, and All-New Invaders #2 by James Robinson and Steve Pugh. Check them out below.
Publishing| Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso talks about bringing more Latino characters — and more diversity in general — to the Marvel lineup: "People out there reading our comic books are of all sizes, creeds and colors and it's our responsibility to make them feel included. This isn't some PC initiative, this is capitalism. This is about supply and demand." [Fox News Latino]
Passings | Webcomics and minicomics creator Luisa Felix (Candy Blondell) has died at the age of 60. [The Comics Reporter]
Creators | Grant Morrison discusses winding up his run on Action Comics: "Symbolically I'm not a big fan of dealing with politics in superhero comics because I think it diminishes both sides of the argument, but I do have my own take on things. I've got my own politics and so they do tend to find their way in. And really for me, its more symbolic, the way story winds up to tackle all those issues and looks at them through the perspective of Superman and Red Kryptonite and weirdness. So it's gone underground. I think the early Superman was very much more aligned with the anti-establishment, anti-authoritarian current, because I think when Superman started out that he was what entered into." [Comics Alliance]
Publishing | More than 4,000 new comic titles were released in the European Francophone market in 2012, marking the 17th consecutive year of growth. According to the Association des Critiques et journalistes de Bande Dessinée, the French association of comic strip critics and journalists, more comics were produced in the Francophone market than in the United States. [RFI]
Comics | The death of Spider-Man hits the mainstream media, with Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso asserting, "We didn't make this move lightly." Stan Lee called it "a helluva birthday present" but added "But then, a little voice in my head whispered, 'never say never. Just go with it while you can because Marvel, the House of Ideas, will always have a surprise up its creative sleeve for you and the rest of Marveldom Assembled!'" Entertainment Weekly's Geoff Boucher said the ongoing deaths of superheroes are starting to feel "a little gimmicky" but he also nailed why the publishers do it: "if you look at who's buying Marvel and DC, it's long term fans and those readers are going to complain about this and debate about it — but are going to buy two copies." [New York Daily News]

AUSTIN (May 9, 2013)--A mistrial was declared in the trial of a woman charged in the 2011 stabbing death of a Huston-Tillotson University athlete in Austin after jurors deadlocked during deliberations.
The jury deadlocked 11-to-1 Wednesday in favor of conviction in the trial of Kaitlyn Ritcherson, 21, who's charged in the death of Houston-Tillotson biology major and women's track team member Fatima Barrie.
Barrie died in December 2011 of wounds she suffered during a fight outside an Austin club.
Testimony indicated the two women didn't know each other but that Ritcherson was acquainted with a man who got into an argument in the club that carried outside.
Ritcherson has maintained her innocence.
Barrie's mother Patricia Davis says she's disappointed with the mistrial, but is confident the truth will come out.
Ritcherson maintains her innocence.

Product Description
A safe, humane way to collect and study fireflies or any insects, the Coleman Kids Firefly Lantern is sturdily built to stand up to lots of use. The lid swivels for easy access to the main compartment, and there's even a secret storage compartment to hold other small treasures.
Catching fireflies--also known as lightning bugs--is a favorite nighttime summer activity for children. These magical insects and their soft, blinking auras have fascinated kids and adults for years. But instead of storing the fireflies in a jar with the top punctured to allow air, Coleman goes one step further with this Firefly Lantern.
Made of rugged plastic wrapped by wire mesh, the firefly lantern is perfect for camping trips or evening picnics that could include extensive bug searches. The lantern features a swiveling lid that opens and closes quickly and easily, and a metal handle that comes in handy during long walks or hikes, or for hanging from a tree or deck. The base of the lantern doubles as a discreet storage container with a removable bottom, but it doesn't have air holes for holding live bugs. At 8.5 inches tall (with a 2.5-by-5.25-inch base container) the lantern is lightweight and is sure to be a favorite summertime toy. And boy, it sure can hold a lot of bugs!

text: Former Bushland wide receiver Keith Mauldin snagged a cool $5,000 July 19, impressing former Texas Tech head football coach Mike Leach. Leach was in Lubbock to sign copies of his book, "Swing Your Sword" and to award a scholarship to Mauldin, a member of the first graduating class at Bushland in 2008 and a junior at Tech. The scholarship comes from the "Mike Leach Foundation/Team Leach," an organization that began after Leach's controversial firing in 2009 and - shall we say - did not agree with Tech's decision. Team Leach raises funds for scholarships. Mauldin, who hopes one day to be a football coach, penned a three-page essay about how much Leach and his air-raid offense impresssed him - and Leach was also impressed. Ironically, Mauldin is an equipment manager for the Red Raider football team. Good to see Leach did not hold that against him.

This semester, I took a course in computer graphics at my University. At the moment, we're starting to get into some of the more advanced stuff like heightmaps, averaging normals, tesselation etc.
I come from an object-oriented background, so I'm trying to put everything we do into reusable classes. I've had good success creating a camera class, since it depends mostly on the one call to gluLookAt(), which is pretty much independent of the rest of the OpenGL state machine.
However, I'm having some trouble with other aspects. Using objects to represent primitives hasn't really been a success for me. This is because the actual render calls depend on so many external things, like the currently bound texture etc. If you suddenly want to change from a surface normal to a vertex normal for a particular class it causes a severe headache.
I'm starting to wonder whether OO principles are applicable in OpenGL coding. At the very least, I think that I should make my classes less granular.
What is the stack overflow community's views on this? What are your best practices for OpenGL coding?

This is definitely a mislabeled recipe. Following the recipe exactly as it is written yields crepe batter, not pancake batter. I added almost another 1/2 cup of flour and about 3 tablespoons of sugar, and they did taste good after those additions, but without a traditional leavening agent they were still very flat and definitely tasted crepe-y.
Following the recipe exactly they turned out more like crepes (very thin batter) so we added a little more flour and about a half teaspoon of sugar to get a thicker batter and a more traditional looking pancake. Either way they were pretty tasty.
I can't see how they would even get golden brown without a tiny bit of sweetener in this. Does it really work? Someone try it and review it please!

I really like nuun tabs a lot, but this one just doesn't taste good. It tastes like flat, off-brand cola. I do like the small amount of caffeine in it though.
Cola taste could be stronger

It's the only working substitute for Coca Cola.

Dissapointing taste

Far from the real thing in terms of taste

****10 Reasons to Buy SOHU *****1/ CEO added to his stake early in August, owns about 23% of cy2/ PE of only 22.5 and Sohu has a strong balance sheet with more than $100 Mln in cash3/ 7th biggest web site in the world (compare it with Alibaba, in which YAHOO bought a 40% stake for about 1$bn, you will laugh)4/ 2/3rd of last Q revenues were in ADVERTISING which is growing very quickly / only 5% exposure to online game !(balance= Wireless services)5/ China is the second biggest country in terms of internet users (more than 100 Mln now? )6/ only 0.6 bn market cap (vs 2.6 for baidu and about 4bn for Alibaba)You will note that BIDU had 1.5 Mln (released on th 23rd august) earnings for Q2 vs 7.1 Mln for SOHU! => market cap of Sohu much lower for much more earnings... Not difficult to understand7/ SOHU = many web site = SOHU / SOGOU / CHINAREN / FOCUS... => Huge traffic for advertising8/ Huge short interest of 2.7 Mln shares, about 17% of the FLOAT!9/ MSN, AOL could want to increase business in CHINA10/ Guidance is very low for the next Q's... and Q4/Q1 should be the strongest Quarters with strong advertisingI could add others like:*2008 Olympic games are in China*Yuan reevaluations to come Of course do your own DD
Are you screaming for help? Do you think you know SOHU more than the market knows? Market has priced everything in for SOHU. That's it, that is the price for SOHU. From the technical point of view, SINA is better than SOHU. But, they all look awful compared to NTES. So buy NTES now!!!
Agree. Sohu growth is bad. I really can not see any growth point for sohu: ads -- can not compete with sina, short msg -- not growingsogou -- rank growth is good, but market share is too small.games -- not muchWhy buy sohu, while ntes has growth rate over 100% year over year and with pe ratio 16 for next year ?

Research Institution:
AbstractMost biomass materials, such as switchgrass and corn stover, are very bulky (fluffy) when first collected,making them costly to handle, store, and transport. Current densification methods ¿ include baling, pelletizing, etc, ¿ are too costly, too energy-intensive, or both. A better method to solve these problems is needed to enhance the utilization of biomass. This project will test and develop a special machine that can press biomass materials into dense tablets of various sizes without having to use heat or binder. This ¿tabletizer¿ will have a number of advantages over other densification processes: (1) less energy will be needed to achieve densification; (2) compaction can be done at farms, sawmills, or ranger stations, greatly reducing transportation and storage costs; and (3) the tablets will be uniform in shape and size, enabling automatic feeding and handling. Commercial Applications and other Benefits as described by the awardee:The biomass tablets produced by this machine should be used in many applications: (1) feedstock for liquefaction and gasification of biomass, (2) fuel for co-firing with coal in stoker and fluidized-bed boilers for power generation, (3) fuel for heating buildings, and (4) feedstock for producing charcoal and activated carbon.

Why is the Shofar sounded on Rosh Hashanah?
Sign up

To begin with, we blow the shofar on Rosh Hashana because God said so. See Numbers 29:1.
Our tradition assigns a great deal of symbolism to the shofar blowing. Two major themes are summarized very nicely by R' Joseph B. Soloveitchik, as I found quoted in Machzor Mesoras Harav (p. 440).
If you're interested in more details about the symbolism of the Shofar, Rav Sa'adia Gaon listed ten specific allusions in the shofar:
It is blown as a wakeup call to us. That is why we blow the shofar the whole elul, leading up to rosh hashana. To remind us that we need to do teshuva (repentance).
As you listen to the shofar being blown, close your eyes for a few seconds and let the sounds penetrate and think about doing teshuva and making yourself a better person.
The Gemara in Shabbos 131b says that the Shofar brings our memory to Hashem. This is what the Torah says is the function when we bite the Shofar at every holiday in the Beis Hamikdash.
Now, obviously Hashem doesn't need reminders. This is where the explanations of Rabbeinu Saadya Gaon, mentioned by @IsaacMoses comes in. This is similar to the blood mark on the doorway in Egypt. Hashem didn't need our reminders but it was a way to make a mark to ourselves, thereby meriting to be singled out.

Renewable energy will continue to fuel President Barack Obama's nationwide climate action plan, said the White House today in an executive order on clean energy.
In June, President Obama introduced his Climate Action Plan, doubling the goal set during his first term to 20,000 megawatts' worth of renewable energy projects on public lands, generating clean, sustainable power for about six million homes.
According to last year's metrics, wind energy was the number one source of new energy in the U.S. in 2012, clocking in at a whopping 43 percent of total new energy generated.
This bill would set a budget, with limits for individual programs, for how the Department of Energy spends its money starting October 1, 2013. This normally routine business is something that both the House and the Senate do every year.

Hey there. This is my first WordPress WooCommerce site and I am cant figure out how to add a "sort-by"/"default sorting" drop-down filter to my category shop pages. I know it's on the plain old "SHOP" page, but my navigation doesn't even show that page (I set that up that way by choice). I have category pages (Cupcakes, Balloons, Plush, Cakes) and sub-category pages (for example: Cupcakes—Flavors Cupcakes—Assortments, Cupcakes—Holiday&Seasonal [etc.]), and I would like to have a "sort-by (price, popularity, average rating, newest) drop-down menu on ALL of those unique pages.
Seems like such a basic thing. Does anyone know how to do this? Is it even possible?
I am using the "Shoppest" theme.

Tremblant is the largest and most expensive ski hill in quebec. You can get much better skiing done in the montreal area than here. Go to sutton, Jay peak or stowe. They get more snow and the terrain is better. They are less busy and the snow doesn't get skied up one hour after opening on a powder day. There are many runs to choose from. The wide open runs are usually icy by ten from all the lousy snowboarders in their $500 ski suits. The glades are great if there is a lot of snow or you are in the mood to ruin your skis. There is little if any variety for expert skiers. Half the mountain is flat especially on the north side. The only good thing about tremblant is the village. Intrawest has invested millions upon millions to have a whistler esque villiage for a crappy north eastern hill. There are tons of restaurant choices from pizza to sushi but they are all very expensive. Expect to pay at least $15 a person for the lunch on top. Lunch in village can cost at least $20 with tip. For dinners go to caseys the food is moderately priced, good quality and good service. Its not worth it to fly here or drive here from anywhere further than ottawa.
for beginners:
i recommend skiing runs like the nansen on the south side (long run out at the end) or the ptit bonheur on the northside
(the only 2 top to bottom beginner runs)
for intermediate skiers:
-ski off the northside in the morning (beauchemin, fuddle duddle, etc.)
-then head to versent soleil in the afternoon there are some nice long winding runs with not too tough pitches
-for an introduction to glades try the windigo off of the expo chair
-for a great introduction do a black diamond try le geant it isnt very busy and usually isnt that icy
- the beauvallon is busy but very well groomed
-avoid the flying mile chair as there is little skiing to be done there
- ski to the bottom dont go to the lowell thomas
for expert skiers:
-do a couple laps on the geant / superier (decent carving runs)
then head to the edge (if not a lot of snow ski the front runs under the gondola they are always groomed well Grand-prix is great for that)
-ski the glades on the soleil (only one run but nice pitch)
-if there is fresh snow ski the ryan (always gets skied up quickly but is nice long mogul pitch)
-the CBC on the northside is a good knee burner which is usually not very icy
-the runs off of the expo chair are usually quite icy
-except for the windigo glades which have a slight pitch but are a very nice mogul field
-stay away from the zig-zag/vertigo unless tons of snow
Terrain parks:
-there is a basic terrain park on the northside which has a few jumps, rails and boxes
-there is a bigger park off of the flying mile which you have to pay for (if you like the park its worth it as it is better groomed and has bigger and better features)

Protesters on Parade
From AP:
AUCHTERARDER, Scotland - Thousands of protesters chanting "Power to the People!" began a march toward the site of the G-8 summit on Wednesday, following hours of acrimony caused by a decision � later reversed � to ban the demonstration. The protesters, banging drums, blowing whistles and led by a bagpiper dressed in traditional Scottish costume, marched through the narrow streets of Auchterarder, a village of about 4,000 people, toward the nearby fenced-off perimiter of Gleneagles.
Somewhere in that crowd is Seattle's own Infernal Noise Brigade, looking damn good and making a racket. I wish I could find pictures. If anyone comes across pictures of the INB on news websites, email me… This is the part of their European tour I'm missing. (For tour dates and info, click here.)

potassium, sodium, chloride, and other molecules in the body. In some cases, the condition manifests before birth with increased amniotic fluid surrounding the affected fetus (polyhydramnios). Affected infants typically do not grow and gain wait as expected. Dehydration, constipation and increased urine production result from losing too much salt (sodium chloride) in the urine, and weakening of the bones can occur due to excess loss of calcium. Low levels of potassium in the blood (hypokalemia) can cause muscle weakness, cramping, and fatigue.[1] It is caused by mutations in any one of at least 5 genes and is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.[2] The different types of Bartter syndrome are classified according to the specific gene that causes the condition.[1] Treatment depends on the type of the syndrome present but chiefly focuses on preventing the loss of too much potassium from the body.[3]Bartter syndrome is a group of similar kidney disorders that cause an imbalance of

Design and Patients: Case report of one patient abruptly withdrawn from long-term therapy with megestrol acetate; prospective study of four patients with AIDS who were starting therapy with megestrol acetate for cachexia.
Setting: Outpatient clinic of a university hospital.
Interventions: Study patients received megestrol acetate, 80 mg three times daily.
Measurements: Study patients had cosyntropin-stimulation testing and oral glucose tolerance testing before and after starting therapy with megestrol acetate.
Results: The patient described in the case report developed symptoms of adrenal insufficiency after withdrawal of megestrol acetate after 4 years of treatment. His basal cortisol and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) levels were low. He showed an abnormally diminished response to a short cosyntropin-stimulation test but did respond to a 3-day cosyntropin-stimulation test. The morning cortisol levels of the study patients decreased significantly (from 11.0 ±1.8 µg/dL to 1.5 ±0.9 µg/dL; P < 0.01), and the ACTH levels of these patients decreased to below normal (from 16.6 ±5.5 pg/mL to 6.3 ±3.3 pg/mL; P = 0.02) during treatment with megestrol acetate. Cortisol levels after administration of cosyntropin decreased significantly (from 27.3 ±3.3 pg/mL to 9.3 ±6.3 pg/mL; P = 0.01) during treatment with megestrol acetate. The results of oral glucose tolerance testing in two patients were consistent with the development of insulin resistance, and daily insulin requirements increased 10-fold in a patient who had preexisting diabetes.
Conclusions: Prolonged administration of megestrol acetate can induce clinically significant secondary adrenal suppression, and abrupt withdrawal of megestrol acetate after prolonged administration can cause adrenal insufficiency.
Plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) values before and after 1 month of therapy with megestrol acetate. The dotted line represents the lower limit of the normal range (9 pg/mL). Response to a 1-hour cosyntropin-stimulation test at baseline and after 1 month of therapy with megestrol acetate. The normal response is an increase in plasma cortisol level to more than 20 µg/dL.
