December 04,2012RUDOLPH, Ohio Volunteers in the northwest Ohio village of Rudolph have come together to save the most famous postmark of all. Thousands of letters flood the village post office every December so they can be stamped with a Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer postmark. But the tradition was in danger of ending when the post office staff was cut down to one and the work became too much to handle. Thats when volunteers in the community decided to take over the job. When word spread, pleadings from local politicians and townsfolk persuaded the U.S. Postal Service to allow volunteers to stamp the special Reindeer Station postmark on the 80,000 letters and cards that come in from across the country. Close to 75 people, including a few retired postal workers, have signed up to work daily shifts.

So the bids have been received and now Warriors owner Chris Cohan and the powers-that-be at Galatioto Sports Partners are determining which offers are best.President Sal Galatioto, vice chairman Russ Granik and Cohan began that process on Monday, meeting for several hours at the teams downtown Oakland offices.No doubt, Cohan would like to receive an offer in excess of 401 million, which is what Robert Sarver paid for the Phoenix Suns in 2007. That was a record sale price for an NBA franchise.Whether Cohan can get that much remains to be seen. The two most recent sales of NBA teams didnt yield that kind of figure.Michael Jordan reportedly paid 275 million for the Charlotte Bobcats franchise. Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov recently paid 260 million for an 80 percent stake in the New Jersey Nets and 45 percent stake in the new arena.So, where exactly does that put the Warriors? We know that theyve struggled on the court for more than a decade, but at the same time the Warriors have one of the most loyal fan bases in the NBA and it is the Bay Area, after all.Sports executive Andy Dolich who worked in the front offices of the 49ers, As and Warriors, said on Chronicle Live last week that he expected the process to be a horse race, and that Cohan will get a great number for the team.Multiple outlets reported that Cohan received approximately a dozen offers for the team last week. Some of the suitors are said to be: Oracle Corp. CEO Larry Ellison, 24 Hour Fitness president Mark Mastrov, the San Francisco Giants and a group of Chinese businesspeople.Ellison, one of the worlds richest people, is said to be the frontrunner, although Dolich said its very possible that a person or group that has not been talked about could emerge.Said Dolich: Sometimes the less you say, the more serious you are.What'son your mind? EmailMatt and let him know. He may use it in his weekly Mailbag.

According to Intel, the utilizable cache size on the SSD for SRT is between 18.6 GB and 64 GB.
If I buy a "64 GB" SSD I only get 60 GB of usable space, thus underutilizing the SRT technology a bit and putting the SSD to maximum stress.
So the question is, does it make sense to buy a "128 GB" SSD (120 GB usable) for a 50% higher price compared to a "64 GB" SSD to use for SRT?
This way the full 64 GB will be used for cache and there will be some room left for wear leveling for SSD to perform a little more reliable and fast.
Is that so?
Will the wear leveling actually use the whole 120 GB of SSD space in 64 GB SRT mode?

Dear WordPress community, I had the worst night with the weirdest bug ever: My SQL db got reversed. Not by content, but by order.
The WP Loop now display my oldest posts first, and my newest posts last. I did not make any changes, and the bug is NOT in the WP Theme. I ran PHPMyAdmin, and there I saw the oldest posts (still numbered with their original post numbers) first, and so forth.
I have absolutely *no* idea how this happened, and even less ideas as to resolving this.

How Health Reform Affects Medicare
Have a High-Income? Premiums Follow the Same Rules
If your income in 2015 is less than $85,000 ($170,000 for a couple), you'll pay $104.90 a month for Medicare Part B. This includes your Part D drug coverage. This will be the case for 95% of everyone who uses Medicare.
People with higher incomes will pay more for coverage.
For instance, if you earn $85,000 to $107,000 a year ($170,000 to $214,000 for a couple), you'll pay $146.90 for your Part B coverage (in 2015). In this income range, you'll also pay an additional $12.30 above the cost of your plan's premium for Part D each month. If you earn more, you'll pay more.

Motorcycle frame
A motorcycle frame includes the head tube that holds the front fork and allows it to pivot. Some motorcycles include the engine as a load-bearing, stressed member. The rear suspension is an integral component in the design. Traditionally frames were steel, but titanium, aluminium, magnesium, and carbon-fibre, along with composites of these materials, are now used. Because of different motorcycles' varying needs of cost, complexity, weight distribution, stiffness, power output and speed, there is no single ideal frame design.[1]
- 1 Materials
- 2 Types
- 3 Engine as a stressed member
- 4 Stiffness
- 5 See also
- 6 Notes
- 7 Sources
- Examples
- Norton Featherbed frame
- Early Honda CBR600
- Most Ducati Motorcycles
- Examples
Carbon fibre[edit]
- Examples
- Examples
- Examples
- Examples
- Bimota SB8K, composed of two aluminium alloy beams and carbon fibre plates
- MV Agusta F4 750 Serie Oro, magnesium and aluminium
Spine or backbone[edit]
The motorcycle engine is suspended from a single spine.
- Examples
- Honda CB92 Benly
Single cradle[edit]
The motorcycle engine is held in a single cradle with a single spine.
Half-duplex cradle[edit]
The motorcycle engine is held in a double cradle with a single spine and single downtube.
- Examples
Full duplex cradle[edit]
The motorcycle engine is held in place within a pair of separate cradles. The Norton Featherbed frame was the classic example, but many "duplex" frames actually have a single spine beneath the tank.
- Examples
Two beams wrap around the engine to joint the steering head and swing arm in the shortest distance possible for better rigidity. Beams are usually made of pressed metal (steel/aluminium). The trellis frame employs the same concept but uses welded members to form a trellis instead of pressed metal.
- Examples
Beam or twin spar[edit]
Twin beams (spars) join headstock to swingarm pivot in as straight and short a line as possible. A beam frame can be very similar to the perimeter frame.
- Examples
The frame is pressed or stamped from sheet metal to form a car-type semi-monocoque. The frame may be entirely pressed (Ariel Arrow), or may have just a pressed aft section connected to the steering head by a conventional steel tubular spine (Honda Super Cub). Both the Super Cub and the Arrow also have pressed steel forks, instead of conventional telescopic forks.
- Examples
Supports structural load using the external skin of the frame.
- Examples
- 1944 Piaggio MP5
- 2007 Kawasaki 1400GTR
- 2008 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14
- 2011 Ducati 1199
- 2013 Ducati 899
- 2015 Ducati 1299
- 2016 Ducati 959
A trellis frame connects the steering head to the swingarm pivot as directly as possible using metal tube arranged in triangulated reinforcement. Using lattice girder principles, a trellis frame is typically constructed of round or oval section metal tubular segments that are welded or brazed together. Some motorcycles, such as the Yamaha TRX850, have hybrid frames that employ alloy castings at the swingarm pivot area. A trellis frame should provide a strong, lightweight structure that simplifies placement of engine & components, and gives good maintenance access.
Although construction of a trellis frame needs a more complicated process than, say, an alloy beam frame, it requires only a simple fixture and a competent welder. No heavy capital outlay is required, so a trellis frame is ideal for a model that may be made in relatively small numbers, and for this reason, the trellis frame option has found favour with European manufacturers.
- Examples
- Most modern Ducatis
- KTM 690 Enduro
- Honda VTR250
Engine as a stressed member[edit]
For rider comfort, a motorcycle's engine can be mounted on rubber bushings to isolate vibration from the rest of the machine. This strategy means the engine contributes little to frame stiffness, and absorbing rather than dissipating vibration can lead to stress damage to the frame, exhaust pipes, and other parts.[1]
Instead, if the engine is rigidly mounted to the frame, vibrations pass to and are dissipated via the whole frame, and the rider. Rigid mounting allows the engine to contribute to the overall stiffness of the frame. It also becomes possible to mount the swingarm directly to the engine rather than the frame, avoiding the need for frame members extending downward to the swingarm pivot. By increasing the number of mounting points between the engine and frame, vibrations and stress can be better dissipated in the frame, typically creating a triangle between the swingarm in the rear, the cylinder head at the top and the lower crankcase area at the front. If a rigidly mounted engine not only contributes to, but is critical to, the stiffness of the frame, and is an integral part of closing the triangle or trellis structure that transfers force from the headstock to the swingarm, to the point that without the engine the frame would be deformed, the engine is called a stressed member, or a lifted engine. Sharing the load between the engine and frame reduces the overall weight of the motorcycle.[1]
Stressed member engines were pioneered at least as early as the 1916 Harley-Davidson 8-valve racer, and incorporated in the production Harley-Davidson Model W by 1919.[6] This was called a keystone, or diamond, frame.[7][8] The 1946 Vincent Series B Rapide was designed with an advanced chassis, termed a "tour de force for its day,"[9] that included a stressed member engine. During early testing of the 1983 Kawasaki GPZ900R, twin downtubes were included, creating a full cradle, but the downtubes were found to carry little load, so they were removed, relying entirely on the combination of the steel backbone and engine for chassis rigidity.[10] BMW's R1100 series twins of 1994 relieved the frame of stress entirely, with the engine carrying the total load from the front Telelever fork to the rear Monolever.[11][12]
Frame stiffness is a problem for motorcycle designers, as it was for the bicycle frames that motorcycles are descendants of.[13][14]
Modifying the stiffness of a factory-produced frame can be undertaken to improve handling characteristics. This is often done by triangulating the factory frame.[13][15] Triangulation is a technique used in many engineering applications to stiffen structures.[16] However doing so can also have undesirable effects if it overloads other parts of the frame, as a flexible frame acts as a spring to absorb some loads.[17]
Lateral stiffness[edit]
In the 21st century, advances like high power engines driving high traction tires,[18] and better-performing suspension components, especially forks,[19] led to a situation where designs with increased overall frame stiffness were made available to consumers. Analysts differ on whether infinite lateral stiffness is desirable,[19] or whether a finite degree of built-in flex is preferable.[20][21]

Yes. Each year, carbon monoxide kills more than 200 Americans and sends nearly 5,000 more to emergency rooms for treatment, reports the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Where does it come from? When carbon-based fuels such as gas, oil, kerosene or wood burn, they produce gases. When fuel combustion or burning isn't complete, carbon monoxide enters the air. The CPSC advises that carbon monoxide detectors are the only way to alert yourself to the presence of toxic gas in your home. If you wake in the night with a headache — and especially if another member of the family complains of a headache or is difficult to arouse — get out of the house fast and seek medical help. We recommend carbon monoxide detectors be installed in your home!

Frequently Asked Questions
A difference of 6 decibels (such as between 72 dB and 78 dB) is technically a four-fold increase in compressor sound when rating air conditioners or heat pump units. However, it takes a difference of 10 decibels to double the loudness. It is also noted that it takes approximately 3 decibels for the average human ear to discern any difference in loudness at all.
Great strides have been made in reducing the operating sound level of equipment. We will be happy to show you the difference in sound ratings with our product line.
An important change just around the corner is the phase-out of R-22. As of January 2010 the refrigerant R-22 (what consumers call Freon®) will not be allowed to be used in the manufacturing of new equipment. R-22 has been used as the "standard" refrigerant for many years but has been found to be harmful to our planet by our government. All new air conditioners and heat pumps will be required to use "environmentally sound" refrigerant, such as Puron® (commonly known as R-410A).
R-22 is the most commonly used refrigerant in residential homes today. However, per the Montreal Protocol, caps have been established to eliminate the production of R-22. In 2004, there was a 35% reduction; in 2010 there will be a 65% reduction; in 2015 a 90% reduction; and finally in 2020 a 99.5 % reduction in the production of R-22. This means that during the time of these reductions with high demand, the price of each pound of refrigerant could potentially skyrocket.
If you are considering replacing your existing air conditioning equipment, most higher efficiency products have already made the switch to R-410A, the more "environmentally sound" refrigerant.
This can occur for many reasons; uneven solar heat load through windows, an undersized system, improperly balanced or clogged system or a single system serving a two-story home with no zoning control. Each situation is different, usually requiring an onsite analysis with problem specific recommendations. Please call to arrange for us to see your home.
Normal cooling settings are 75 degrees – 80 degrees. Normal heating settings are 68 degrees- 72 degrees. You should always set your thermostat to the highest possible setting that is comfortable for you in the summer, and the lowest comfortable setting in the winter. Setting your thermostat in this way will maximize your energy savings. On average, every 1 degree of temperature change is equal to about 10% energy savings. For example, changing your thermostat setting from 75 degrees to 76 degrees in the summer could result in about a 10% savings on your cooling costs.

News Regarding the Upcoming Session in Olympia
posted by January 11 at 13:05 PMon
I got my carpool matean unnamed lobbyistand so, I'll be heading down to Olympia this Monday for Day 1 (and regularly throughout the two-month session) to keep you up-to-date on the People's Business.
I kicked off my coverage with this column a few week's ago in the print edition, and I've got a follow-up in this week's paper.
As we head into the session, here's the list of pre-filed bills.
One thing that jumps out right away is this: Rep. Maralyn Chase (D-32, Shoreline) is back. Rep. Chase, widely-considered to be an uninfluential lefty outlier in the Democratic caucus, pushed for a cap & trade bill last session that went nowhere.
This year she's ahead of the curve again (or actually, in sync with the coming apocalypse). Among a barrage of environmental bills on her docket, Chase is floating legislation to: establish a carbon tax, prohibit plastic water bottles, outlaw non-recyclable plastic bags at grocery stores, and outlawing small-scaled powered equipment (like death-to-the-environment leaf blowers and small lawn mowers.)
I count zero co-sponsors so far, but her cap and trade bill has some traction this year.

Doug Zawisza, also known as the Black Knight, was a Polish knight and nobleman. He served as a soldier and diplomat under the Polish king Wladyslaw II and Hungarian-Bohemian king Sigismund of Luxembourg. During his life, he was regarded as a model of knightly virtues and was renowned for winning multiple tournaments. His nickname is due to his black hair and his custom-made, black armor, which is kept at the Jasna Góra Monastery.
After his death, he was praised by the Polish historian Jan Dlugosz, the poet and Canon of Gniezno Adam Swinka, and by King Sigismund of Luxembourg. Zawisza became a folk hero in Poland, famed for reliability, and loyalty. The Polish Scouts oath reads partly: "...polegac na nim jak na Zawiszy" ('[you can] rely on [a boyscout] as on Zawisza'). A monument to Zawisza at Golubac fortress, Serbia, bears the inscription: "In Golubac, his life was taken by the Turks, the famous Polish knight, the symbol of courage and honor, Zawisza the Black. Glory to the hero!" Several Polish football clubs and other sports teams were named after him, including, Zawisza Bydgoszcz.

Eye Health Center
You Can See Clearly Now
For contact lens users, there are aspheric lenses, which have a special lens curvature (sometimes called "premium lenses," they also carry a higher price tag). In one study at the University of Iowa National Advanced Driving Simulator, drivers wearing aspheric lenses had significantly improved ability to see oncoming cars compared with a group who wore the conventional variety. Problems with night vision, such as halos around lights, aren't just a driving challenge. They could indicate early cataracts or glaucoma, so it's important to see an eye doctor if you have these issues.
The Problem: You've tried contacts, but they didn't work because of your astigmatism.
The Fix: One of the new toric lenses. Astigmatism, which is blurry vision caused by an abnormally curved cornea, can now be corrected with toric contacts, which have two curvatures — one to correct for nearsightedness or farsightedness (depending on your problem) and one for the astigmatism, explains Sindt. Until recently, there were only a limited number of toric lenses, but today many brands are available, including some made with new, more comfortable materials such as silicone hydrogel. If you decide to go with toric contacts, make sure you put aside enough funds in next year's FSA: They may run between $500 and $700 a year, reports all about vision.com, a consumer website, compared with about $220 to $260 a year for regular contacts replaced at average (not daily-use) rates.
$ave on Eyewear
As you move through your 40s and 50s, rapidly changing prescriptions and multiple pairs of specs can have you seeing red. To keep costs down:
• Stagger Purchases: Even if your eyes have changed, you don't necessarily need to buy new glasses. "Ask your doctor how the new prescription compares to what you're using," says Lynn Gordon, M.D., Ph.D., professor of ophthalmology at UCLA. "Then together you can decide if you need to upgrade or can wait. Maybe you'll buy new sunglasses this year and reading glasses next."
• Shop Online: If you're willing to give up the expert fitting that comes from a shop, Internet sites (search for "online glasses") offer amazingly low prices and stylish choices. For a vintage look, GH Fashion Director Jasmine Chang recommends warbyparker.com; styles cost about $100 (for frames and lenses). To order online, you'll need to send in a recent prescription that includes pupillary distance.

An accommodation beneath contempt . Dirty , leaky shower stall , broken lamps and contacts that did not work . Wifi only worked if you sat out in the yard . We had ants in the kitchen and bathroom.
Fee for cleaning, towels and sheets.
To pay for cleaning when the apartment was so dirty known very irritant . Smaller service oriented staff made it known not worthwhile to go and complain. Would never recommend this accommodation !
Very nice, pieceful and relaxing house.
We really enjoyed the large rooms and terasses outdoor. It is great to have realy furniture inside and outside.
The house is big and especially with a great view but:
- There're no curtains or shutters on the windows
- The sheets are minimal (and not optional)
- The house was quite dirty despite the payment for the cleaning
- The manager of the property accused me to stole one (1) pillowcase the day after we left. The pillowcase has been obviously found after a while, it was left behind during the collecting.
I've enjoyed my stay in Stintino for the sea, the nature, the landscape, but, for a short stay of 4 days, too many thing that didn't work out with the house.
Nice place and great pool. BUT too expensive! Bad kitchenequipments. Expensive sheets and towels. Not value with the money!
My boyfriend and I stayed here for 6 nights and it was absolutely wonderful! Exactly what you see in pictures, except there isn't actually a balcony. Just a glass door with railings right behind it. The area was by far our favourite in Barcelona. Truly unique and enjoyable to just walk around at any time of the day. The stairs are a frightening first impression, 57 in a small spiral staircase, but still definitely worth the mission. But yes, pack light!
Thank you Maria for your kind hospitality, suggestions and being readily available for anything we needed.
I definitely recommend :)
Very disappointed at the standard of the apartment and the arrival and departure procedure! This apartment was let through Wimdu by Interhome. I will never book anything let by Interhome again. Having made the booking and paid for it we were totally unaware until one week before departure that bed linen and towels were not included and an extra charge was levied (Euro 28 for sheets and 12 for towels). When I challenged Interhome on non disclosure of information they told me it was in the small print: having trawled though every last word I found it in tiny print under Cancellation Policy! Again I challenged Interhome about deliberately placing this important piece of information where nobody will think to look. It should be clearly displayed on the webpage under Amenities where a note can be posted in the relevant area for all to see.
Arrival procedure - what a nonsense. Having paid for the sheets you have to collect them in person from the office. We made it by the skin of our teeth before the office closed for the weekend. Because our flight was delayed we arrived in Chamonix later than expected and had the office been closed we would have had no sheets at all! They are bulky to carry and I have photos of my husband looking like Santa Clause with a big white sack over his shoulder. It's the height of nonsense to expect arrivals to lug luggage and carry this bulky bad around Chamonix. On departure we had to return the sheets to the office again in said bag!
End cleaning - the previous tenant had presumably paid therefore we expected a clean apartment. The hard surfaces were clean but the living room carpet was disgusting with stains and grime and dirty black marks (photographed). It needs either professionally deep cleaned or dumped. Personally I would replace it. My bed sheet had a dirty brown mark on it (photographed) and the "white" patio furniture was grey with grime. I don't think it had been cleaned in years. Before I would set as much as a mug on it I scrubbed it with the dish scrubber (which I then couldn't use on the dishes!). Again we have photographic evidence. The best feature of the apartment is the wonderful view of Mont Blanc from the balcony. I don't know who is employed to clean this apartment but they could do with a lesson or two. I will never use Interhome again and I recommend that you steer clear of it too. I've used Wimdu many times and always been satisfied but not on this occasion.
Nice clean well equipped apartment. Very friendly hoists. Would recommend to all my friends.
The Oasis is a wonderful and great accomodation. The house is surrounded by Lemon trees and offers a great view to the sea. It is well equipped, clean and very comfortable for Groups/families up to ten. Highly recommanded.
The place shown on the pictures has an open swimming pool. However if you 're in to reading all the small letters in the massive paper work of Inter Home you Will Read That the pool is open from the 15th of June. What à dissapointment for my daughter. Furthermore we had to pay for the bedlinen on top of the cleaning which was counted pro person. And of course because it was cold we had to pay for the heating although in the living room was no heating system, only in the bath and bedroom. The owners were. Ice although when people arrive in the middle of the night due to their flight it would be nice if there would be something to drink. The garden is large and nice decorated so I think in summer when the pool is open it will be a paradise. For myself I think it is deceive that Wimdu puts this booking through a link connecting to another website. In this way you pay a lot more and you don,'t get what is shown on the pictures. I will never book in this manner again because in the end you pay a lot more.
Wonderful place with great hosts. The apartment is spacious and very clean, the beds are big and comfortable, the kitchen is very well equipped and the balcony offers a superb view of Eiger. We will certainly come back again.

Under international pressure, the Iraqi government Wednesday backed off its threat to close a refugee camp holding 3,400 Iranian exiles by the end of the month.
Instead, Iraq said it will shut Camp Ashraf sometime in January and insisted all its residents must leave the country by April. It promised not to deport anyone to Iran.
A spokeswoman for the exiles responded positively to elements of the plan and insisted the U.S. and U.N. guarantee their safety. The extension of the deadline raises the likelihood of a peaceful resolution to the standoff, heading off a possible bloodbath many international observers have feared.
Israel is lashing out at diplomats at the U.N. who condemned Israeli settlement construction in territory claimed by the Palestinians and attacks apparently carried out by Jewish settlers.
Fourteen diplomats voiced their concerns Tuesday. South Africa's U.N. ambassador, Baso Sangqu, called Israeli settlement construction the "main impediment for the two-state solution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict."
A statement from Israel's Foreign Ministry on Wednesday said the diplomats should focus on peacemaking in "bloody hotspots" like Syria instead of "interfering with Israel's domestic affairs," apparently referring to attacks by Israeli extremists on military bases, mosques and Palestinian property.
VERACRUZ, Mexico
The entire police force in the major Gulf coast port city of Veracruz was dissolved Wednesday and Mexican officials sent the Navy in to patrol.
The Veracruz state government said the decision is part of an effort to root out police corruption and start from zero in the state's largest city.
State spokeswoman Gina Dominguez said 800 police officers and 300 administrative employees were laid off. At a news conference, she said they can apply for jobs in a state police force, but must meet stricter standards for an agency with officers "who are better trained and more committed and who can deliver under our current security circumstances."
SANAA, Yemen
Nearly 200 people, among them 15 foreigners, have been killed in clashes over the past few weeks between an ultraconservative Islamist group and former Shiite rebels in northern Yemen, a military official and the leader of the Islamist faction said Wednesday. In Moscow, Russia's Foreign Minister said four Russian citizens were among those killed.
The tension between the Salafi Islamists, who are Sunni, and the former Hawthi rebels, who are Shiite, escalated just as Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh signed in late November a U.S.-backed proposal crafted by powerful Gulf Arab neighbors, under which he transfers power to his vice president in exchange for immunity from prosecution. He agreed to step down after a 10-month uprising against his 33-year authoritarian rule.
The Hawthis fought a bloody and costly six-year war with Saleh's government in northern Saada province, along the Saudi border, until a cease-fire was reached early last year.

I am running a storage system. Fault tolerancy is handled at application level (files are stored on multiple servers, even datacenters).
Therefore I don't need nor even want redundancy within one server (Raid 5 would be OK but I run commodity budget servers, so anything that is resource intensive or requires expensive hardware is bad).
Currently I am using LVM to create a volume group out of all the drives in the server and then I put one big volume on it.
This works fine so far.
The problem is that I want to use bigger servers in future that contain up to 40+ drives.
The possibility of one drive failing and thus destroying the whole volume group is unacceptably high. The data IS stored elsewhere and can be recovered by the application, but restoring 100+ TB over internet peering is damn expensive and takes ages.
If one drive fails I would love to only loose the files stored on that disk.
It would be also perfectly if the files could be stored as a whole on a disk and be spread across multiple disks somewhat evenly (for performance reasons and reducing the amount of data that needs to be restored if one drive fails).
Is there something that suits my needs?
I think its a very common concern in big lvm volume groups.
A little program that presents a "merged view" and mounts via fuse would be perfect.
Unfortunately my application is not flexible enough to handle multiple volumes inside one server.
I know there are recovery means for lvm, but honestly, I really don't want to run them in a productive system...
Also: How does lvm "spread" data across multiple devices in a volume group? Does it add to the first one until its full and then starts the second one? Or is it more like randomly somewhere?
How is this not a real question??? This question is not about "what would be a good way too..." this question is also not about redundancy of fault tolerance.
My question is very specific. It is just a bit out of the ordinary. This is why I need to ask a question and not type it into google.
What program can I use to join multiple drives into one big volume AND only loose the files stored on ONE drive if ONE drive fails.
Raid -> does not do that. Raid can store redundancy information to prevent loss int he first plase. Raid can ALSO join multiple drives in to one.
Imagine a little secretary that gets a file. puts it on a drive that has free space. And if you request it he searches for it or remembers where it was and gives it to you from that drive.
If one drive is gone, the little secretary apologizes and says that he doesnt have the files on that device any more, but he can give you all the others.

"Alcohol abuse" was to blame for almost every arrest made in
Queenstown over the weekend, which included the
detoxification of a 40-year-old Queenstown woman so drunk she
could not stand or remember her address, police say.
Sergeant Keith Newell, of Queenstown, said the woman was
attempting to head home in a taxi at 5am on Saturday but
"gave the driver the wrong address".
"She was extremely intoxicated, to the point she couldn't
stand on her own or tell anyone her actual address. She was
brought back to the police station for detoxification and was
released at 9am".
Sgt Newell said six drink-drivers were arrested and a further
nine people arrested for disorderly behaviour or violence,
"all caused by alcohol abuse".
They included a 19-year-old Auckland man, charged with
drink-driving on Beetham St after a breath-alcohol test gave
a reading of 1086mcg - 686mcg over the legal limit - at
11.45pm; a 16-year-old Invercargill girl charged with
drink-driving on Frankton Rd at 3.08am on Saturday, who had a
breath-alcohol level of 539mcg - "well over the adult limit";
and an 18-year-old Bluff male arrested in Cow Lane for
fighting at 4.06am.
"When he was spoken to, he couldn't recall he was in
Queenstown. He thought he was in Invercargill," Sgt Newell
"The aftermath of the Queenstown Winter Festival opening
party kept police busy. Heavy rain helped the situation, but
there were still far too many arrests."
At 1.40am a 23-year-old French man was left with a broken
nose after being involved in a fight inside a Queenstown bar.
It was the first of several incidents in the early hours
which involved violence and were caused by intoxicated
The trouble continued at 6.30am yesterday when an 18-year-old
Temuka man was processed for drink-driving after the car he
was driving "ended up in a ditch" on Moke Lake Rd near
His breath-alcohol level was 271mcg. The legal limit for a
person under the age of 20 is zero.
Sgt Newell said all the offending had occurred "in the early
"I just wish we could go out and enjoy things without getting
boozed up."

Dissertation Acknowledgment: Tips from 2 Experts
Dissertations are often published. To that end, most students write—either as an optional part of their document or as a required part of the assignment—a dissertation acknowledgement. Much like the acknowledgement in a book, a dissertation acknowledgement is intended to thank or acknowledge each person who helped the student in researching and writing the dissertation or who contributed to the work in some way.
Dissertation acknowledgements appear after the cover page. Most universities and educational institutions have specific requirements for where the report acknowledgement should appear. Students should follow the guidelines presented in the rules of their college or university because failure to do so can result in the rejection of the work. Although, often somewhat nostalgic, dissertation acknowledgements should be written in as formal a style as the rest.
The dissertation acknowledgement section of the document should be housed on its own page or pages. It should not be included as part of the introduction or any other section. It should appear in the table of contents as its own section.
The dissertation acknowledgement should acknowledge the contributions of everyone who contributed to the work. Whether the contribution was large or small, everyone who helped the student create such an important paper deserves mention. It is considered customary to thank instructors, other students, friends, and even family members. It is also a good idea to mention the important contributions of research subjects, editors, and advisors. Some students even thank their young children, who might serve as a source of inspiration, a librarian who was particularly helpful, or even an editor who was particularly helpful.
Dissertation acknowledgements should always include the members of the report committee and any other college or university professional who had a hand in the creation. These are individuals who are likely to feel particularly slighted if they are omitted from the acknowledgements so students should pay special attention to these people. It stands to reason that although some of the individuals mentioned in the report acknowledgements may be sincerely appreciated, their mention might be just as politically motivated as not.
Some dissertation acknowledgements are quite lengthy. However, learners should let their own conscience be their guide. Some students feel it is important to mention absolutely everyone who had even the slightest influence on the work and others feel it is only necessary to mention those who had the most influence.
Viewpoint of Author #2
A thesis acknowledgement is a tribute to the individuals who have assisted a writer in the completion of his or her project. Thesis acknowledgements are typically placed somewhere in the front matter of a senior, master's, or doctoral thesis. A thesis acknowledgement is different from a thesis dedication. A thesis is commonly dedicated to one or few individuals who the writer would like to honor. Thesis acknowledgements, however, note individuals who have assisted in the development and execution of the writer's thesis project. It is common for thesis acknowledgements to follow the thesis dedication.
Some writers are overzealous in their acknowledgements and attempt to thank all of the individuals who have assisted them in their academic pursuits from kindergarten on. This should be avoided. Thesis acknowledgments should be kept to one page or less and should focus solely on the contributors to the writer's thesis project. Though previous mentors and teachers have certainly contributed to the writer's development as a thinker, it is best to leave a litany of thanks for speeches. A thesis acknowledgement should match the professional and sophisticated tone of any long and original academic text by being concise and gracious and by focusing only on the most important contributors to the thesis. For instance, it is common and courteous to acknowledge the student's thesis advisor and committee. In addition, thesis acknowledgements should note any important individuals aside from the committee that contributed to the project, such as readers or other mentors. The student may also wish to thank his or her department for its support of the project, and some writers choose to acknowledge any writing coaches or editors that assisted with the thesis composition. If the thesis reports on a study that utilized participants, it is appropriate to acknowledge the study participants for their time and contributions.
Each individual noted in a thesis acknowledgement should be addressed by his or her full, professional name and title and should be briefly thanked for his or her specific contribution to the project. For instance, the writer may state, "I thank my advisor, Dr. Paul L. Smith, for his support and guidance throughout the project; the University Writing Center, for its assistance with refining the finished document; and the Department of Physics, for its permission to carry out this research."
On occasion, writers wish to acknowledge specific family members or friends who have supported them through the duration of the thesis project. This is also appropriate.

Ivan Lewis praised Jewish efforts
International Development Minister Ivan Lewis has praised Jewish groups for their role in fighting world poverty.
The Bury South MP was at Lambeth Palace on Tuesday for a consultation meeting on eliminating poverty involving his department and faith organisations.
"New Labour has been trying to work against the Thatcherite slogan of 'There's no such thing as society,'" he said. "But with the help of faith groups, we can help to disprove this by promoting the need to reach out to others."
Speaking afterwards, he described the input of Jewish groups as "critical to our coming up with new ways of working that address the development challenges we face in the 21st century".
Those at the Lambeth Palace gathering included Dan Berelowitz of social action charity Tzedek, which has received government funding towards promoting development projects.
"We were the beneficiaries of a £200,000 grant, which lasts until next March. It has allowed us to visit Jewish schools and movements promoting the Jewish view on the need to reach out to the wider community."
Also present was Charles Keidan of the Pears Foundation, who said Jewish groups had the influence to be key players in the campaign to eradicate poverty.

I'm still pissed over those "Björk Chops". Very, very disappointing. Fuck her.
Bjork is badass! She's violently happy. Don't fuck with Bjork.
And please please please let her do the theme song for the next James Bond movie. PLEEEEEASE?
I stopped ever listening again quite some time ago due to those very screams.
I'm gonna allow this.
yawn. some people (like me) like björk, some people don't. some "famous people" occasionally get fed up with the paparazzi, some never do. what's the big deal here? slog shouldn't be tmz (unless it's about crazy local celebs).
I swear she conjured a worldwind at the Gorge last summer during her set. I never knew what Army of Me was really supposed to sound like.
* Whirlwind. Although I guess worldwind works too.
Ummm *who cares* ??
Must be a slow news day. Nice filler.
On second hand... not really.
Everybody cares when Adrian! posts. When they act like they don't, it's because they're jealous.
I respect whatever sanity she comes up with next. She can have her way with me.
You beat me to the "Don't fuck with Bjork" line.
She comes from a long line of Icelandic warrior women. For them, this is being fairly passive ...
If anyone has ever been to any major Icelandic city on a weekend -- Reykjavik, Akureyri, etc. -- specifically just two minutes in a bar, you know that YOU DO NOT FUCK WITH PEOPLE FROM ICELAND... especially someone who has had a PUNK history in Iceland.
The photography should be lucky Bjork didn't transmogrify into an anglerfish and decimate his face.
I certainly hope we won't be seeing the words "Adrian Ryan," "defamation of character," and "awaiting trial" in a sentence together anytime soon (or at least, not again).
Link, Adrian?
Someone who falls on their own ass after a lame attack on an unaware person, doesn't strike me as particularly terrifying.

Liam Hemsworth
Liam Hemsworth in Double Denim
Liam Hemsworth was seen enjoying a summer holiday with friends in Portofino, Italy a couple of days ago. The paparazzi seem to get everywhere, even snapping him while he ate at a restaurant.
Liam wore a double denim look, choosing a pair of grey/brown tinted denim shorts matched with a striped red tee and a denim shirt. We don't get to feature Liam that much here on DenimBlog, but when we do, he's usually a fan of denim jackets and shirts, mixing them with double denim combinations.

Liam Hemsworth in Joe's Jeans Brixton Trouser in Shark
Liam Hemsworth was snapped while arriving for a flight out of LAX. He wore his Joe's Jeans Brixton Trousers in Shark with a gray v-neck tee shirt and sneakers.
I like that Liam cuffed these jeans at the bottom, I like how it makes the jeans look and adds a nice touch. We don't see too many guys cuff their jeans, mainly just women, but I think it can work with the right pair of jeans. Buy Joe's Jeans online at Joesjeans.com.
Liam Hemsworth in a Joe's Denim Shirt
Liam Hemsworth was photographed on stage while attending the 2013 Teen Choice Awards in Los Angeles, California over the weekend.
Liam was wearing a Joe's Single Pocket Denim Shirt in Adam, which he paired with black jeans and a white t-shirt. I still love the pairing of dark wash jeans with light wash denim shirts, I don't think I will ever get tired of it! Buy this shirt online at Joe's Jeans.
Can you guess who this is in a denim jacket and Levi's Jeans?
This ones a little tougher than most of our 'guess who' posts, but can you guess who this is in a denim jacket and Levi's jeans?

Audio Engineering and Equipment Requirements for Stereo Television Production That Meets Perceptual Demands
With television audio being presented in a stereo mode, two-channel stereo equipment in simplest form is not adequate. Much attention must be given to electronic techniques for compensation of zoom lens usage, switching of visual signal sources, studio acoustics, control-board design, microphone placement, and developing a philosophy for -off-camera- audio perspectives.

Summary | Excerpt | Reviews | Beyond the book | Readalikes | Genres & Themes | Author Bio
Publicists often use comparisons to well-known authors to convince readers to
pick up a novel by an unknown writer. In the case of The Red Wolf Conspiracy,
this tactic does the author a disservice. Robert Redick's writing is so good and
original that neither of the comparisons listed in the book's description do it
justice. If you're expecting another Game of Thrones or Golden Compass,
you'll be disappointed, as The Red Wolf Conspiracy resembles neither. If
you're looking for a simply great fantasy read, though, this is your book.
The Red Wolf Conspiracy falls neatly into the "high fantasy" genre. Redick immerses the reader in themes and archetypical characters many will recognize from other novels in the category (good vs. evil; the young protagonist with a mysterious skill and/or past; the malevolent Dark Lord who wants to take over the world; etc.) Redick, ...

When I saw this traditional English Christmas cake in the Sep/Oct Jamie Magazine issue, I knew immediately that I would have definitely baked it for Christmas (yeah, I know, I love Christmas and I start thinking about it as soon as I put away my summer T-shirts and light dresses, I can't help it).
As you already know how much I love the British side of life, you will easily understand how I desperately fell for this delicious fruit cake: rich, sumptuous, full of dried fruit and, above all, very English! It's traditional to make this a few weeks before Christmas, so that you can feed it by pouring over booze of your choice, to further enrich the flavor of this extraordinary fruit cake.
The brandy aroma, combined with dried fruit and nuts, reminds me of season greetings, snowy Christmas carols, twinkling lights, rustling paper and satin ribbons… I can't wait to finally bite into a thick slice of fruity Christmas cake, as until now I could only nibble something, while gradually adding some brandy to my creature!
Traditional Christmas Cake – from Jamie Magazine Sep/Oct 10
- 600 g raisins
- 200 g currants
- 100 g dried sour or glacé cherries
- 250 g mixed dried fruits (try prunes, apricot, apples, pears) finely chopped
- 400 ml booze, plus extra to 'feed' the cake (brandy, sherry, Tia Maria, rum... all work well)
- 300 g butter, at room temperature
- 200 g dark brown sugar
- 1 lemon
- 4 eggs, at room temperature
- 2 tbsp treacle (I used golden syrup)
- 300 g plain flour
- ½ tsp ground ginger
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- a pinch of ground cloves
- 150 g ground almonds
- 150 g walnuts, chopped
- Place the dried fruit in a saucepan with the booze and bring to a simmer. Pour into a bowl, cool, cover and leave to soften.
- Preheat the oven to 150C/gas 2 and line the base and sides of a 23cm round tin or a 20cm square tin with a double layer of greaseproof paper. You'll need the side lining to be a good 8cm higher than the tin.
- If you'd like your cake to be particularly moist, blitz half the soaked fruit in a food processor to make a paste, and stir back into the rest of the fruit. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Grate in the zest of your lemon and beat in the eggs, one at a time. Mix in the treacle. Sift the flour and combine with the spices and ground almonds. Mix into the butter mixture, alternating with the soaked fruit. Finally, fold in the walnuts. Spoon the mixture into the lined tin and bake in the oven for about 3 hours. Check after 2½ hours and then every 20 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean.
- As soon as the cake comes out of the oven, brush with a little more booze. Leave to cool in the tin for 5 minutes and then remove, placing it directly onto a large sheet of tin foil. Wrap it up twice to retain the heat for as long as possible. After a few hours, remove the foil and wrap the cake up again in a double sheet of greaseproof paper and a double sheet of tin foil, making sure you can access the cake from the top. Store in an airtight container for 2–12 weeks. During this time, feed the cake the alcohol of your choice by gently pouring it over the top and rewrapping.
- I decided to frost this traditional cake with a soft topping made by whipping together mascarpone cheese and cream with 2 tbsps of icing sugar. Spread evenly the frosting over the cake and decorate with some glacé cherries or Christmas decorations.
Tasting test. It isn't a traditional Italian cake and you won't find it within our family Christmas recipes… Well, until this year, I dare say. I'm sure that next year this will become an unmissable Christmas sweet treat, a new tradition to built year after year, sweet fruity crumble after sweet fruity crumble. It is a rich, full-bodied, fruity and flavorful cake, in which all the ingredients are perfectly balanced. It slightly resembles our typical panforte (a kind of gingerbread), but is less sweet, I do prefer the English version.

A wonderful game that deserved his place on the front page, with intelligent gameplay mecanics, I really loved it. You have the same abilities during the whole game but, the narrator doesn't tell you all you can do from the beggining of the game, and you have to restart some levels to make it at 100%. Brillant.
...but the 19th level was really hard, but there's still a tip to make it "easily" : for the last jump, you can use the gravity effect after jumping to go to the exit door.

I played this game for 1 hour. Two-thirds of which were awesome! Filled with unique puzzles to solve, with coins added as an extra challenge. I spent 20 minutes on level 19. I have had a lot of time to think about what is wrong with that level. You might think that since it's only one level, it's not too important, but in my eyes, since it took up a third of my playing time, it's a HUGE deal.
Two-thirds of what I played was amazing. The mechanics of this game are refreshingly fun to use, and it's fun to figure out the puzzles made using the mechanics. It's especially fun to pick up the spawn point and circumvent some traditionally difficult jumps. You need a different kind of muscle memory than one would get from a normal platforming game.
The mechanics were slowly introduced and taught until you had a wonderful skill set at your disposal. All you had to do was remember what you were taught and eventually, you could figure out the puzzle.
And then level 19 happened. Everything taught to you went out the window. All the cool gameplay and mechanics that make this submission unique and interesting are gone. The beginning platform was frozen so you can't even interact with it like you've been able to ALL GAME. And it's not frozen to make the level a harder puzzle. It's simply a restriction on what game mechanics you can use in that level. As a result, it becomes a generic platforming level that is dull, frustrating, and uninspired.
Since level 19 is most fresh in my mind, I'm tempted to rate this BLAM this like crazy, but the first 18 levels were so awesome that I have to give a few stars for its originality and great execution.
Thanks, xpwifi. I think that's fair. Level 19 was a terrible idea, in retrospect.
