Ultimate Soviet Henchman Returns to His PedestalBreaking News
On the night of Aug. 22, 1991, several construction cranes and a crowd of about 50,000 determined people gathered in central Moscow to seal that promise of something better than Soviet misery. In front of the sinister K.G.B. building, workers rocked, cracked and then toppled the formidable statue of Feliks Dzerzhinsky, the father of the secret police, the founder of the gulag, the man whose people tortured and killed millions to create Lenin's dream state. It was not broken into pieces by protesters but relegated instead to an undistinguished patch of land behind the New Tretyakov Gallery.
Earlier this month, with little fanfare but plenty of dreary symbolism, Mr. Dzerzhinsky was returned to a position of honor in central Moscow. It is not the same statue, and it is not on the same plinth, in the center of a major traffic circle near the place where the K.G.B. tortured its many victims.
Instead, Iron Feliks is a few blocks away at the Interior Ministry, his bronze bust back on a pedestal in the new Russian society. This is the man who in 1917 founded the Cheka, the Extraordinary Commission, which terrorized the nation with the arrests and brutal executions that became known as the Red Terror. This invention was the precursor of the secret police and spy network, the K.G.B., that stood as a symbol of barbarism in the 20th century.

Both Microsoft Access and Microsoft Excel use PivotTable reports to analyze and summarize large amounts of organized data. Two of the functions available with pivot table data fields are COUNT and SUM. Both functions add data values, but operate on different types of data values.
Microsoft Access and Microsoft Excel
Microsoft Access and Microsoft Excel provide users with a way of storing data. Microsoft Access organizes data using databases. Microsoft Excel stores data in spreadsheets.
Pivot Table
Pivot tables analyze data without the user needing to enter formulas. Pivot tables also make it easier to manipulate data without performing complex copy-and-paste exercises.
Data Field
A data field in the pivot table contains values from the original data used to create the pivot table. The data field contains the data on which pivot tables perform operations such as SUM and COUNT.
SUM is the default operation used to add numerical data in a pivot table. A data field containing the values 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 would sum to 15.
COUNT is the default operation performed on all other data types in a pivot table. A data field containing red, blue, red, yellow and green would return the values of 2 for the count of red, 1 for the count of blue, 1 for the count of yellow and 1 for the count of green. COUNT is also the operation used to add up the number of entries in a data field. A data field containing the values 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 would return 5 for the count of data values.

The history of the oxidation state in the Earth's mantle has beenconstrained using (a) the whole-rock abundances of Cr and V inancient volcanics, and (b) the composition of Cr-rich spinels in ancient volcanics. Results indicate that the Earth's mantle hasbeen at-or-near its current oxidation state (±0.5 log-unitfO2) since at least 3600 Ma, and probably since at least 3960 Ma. Volatiles released into the Earth's atmosphere by high-temperature (T ≥ 1300 K) volcanism during this time have been dominated by H2O, CO2, and SO2. This blend ofvolatiles is known to provide smaller yields of prebiotic, organic molecules by atmospheric and surface processes than gasmixtures containing higher concentrations of reduced species suchas H2, CO, and H2S (e.g., Miller, 1998; Zolotov and Shock, 2000). The results discussed in this article independentlysupport the conclusion of Canil (1997, 1999). f the atmosphere was reducing (e.g., CH4, H2, H2S, NH3, CO) at any time during the last ∼3900 Ma,high-temperature volcanic outgassing was not the cause of it.

The following stocks rose or fell today. Symbols are in parentheses.
Alvarion Ltd. (ALVR IT) dropped 3.9 percent to 3.662 shekels, the lowest close since at least July 2001, when Bloomberg started tracking the shares. The maker of wireless telecommunications equipment expects a one-time charge of about $7 million after a bankruptcy petition filed by Open Range Communication Inc.
Separately, Elron Electronic Industries Ltd. (ELRN IT) and Alvarion are weighing options for a sale of Elron's 67 percent stake in Wavion Inc. to Alvarion. Elron advanced to the highest level since Aug. 22, climbing 2 percent to 14.73 shekels.
Bezeq Israeli Telecommunication Corp. (BEZQ IT), the country's largest fixed-line company, declined for the first time in four days, dropping 2 percent to 6.89 shekels.

BluePhoenix Solutions Ltd. (BPHX IT) climbed the most in more than three months in Tel Aviv, jumping 6.1 percent to 2.285 shekels, the equivalent of 62 U.S. cents. The U.S.-traded shares rose 5.7 percent to 65 cents in New York on Oct. 7.

Israel's cabinet approved proposals, including easing import restrictions, from the government-appointed Trajtenberg committee to address cost-of-living complaints. Strauss last week lowered the price of some milk products 12 percent.

Elson, the father, is met first. Divorced, living with a
younger woman, he's an architect whose buildings, ''too
severe, too cold'', seem to echo his personality.
Liking a degree of anonymity, he has been drinking in a
Houston hotel where no-one knows him. He stops on his way
home to check his messages and finds a flurry of them from
his ex-wife, Cadence.
When he phones her, she tells him that their daughter, Chloe,
is on her way home from her Boston university, having been
temporarily expelled for reasons she will not explain.
Their son Richard makes his appearance next, participating in
a poetry workshop at his tutor's house. Richard is talented
but tortured, ambivalent about being involved with gay
friends whose friendship he values, but whose morals are
dubious. He has been delegated to meet his errant sister, as
they have a close sibling bond.
The bond is made stronger by their mutual distress at the
nastiness of their parents' divorce.
We soon learn a little more about the mystery surrounding
Chloe's disgrace, but information is leaked so slowly
throughout the book that it's not until nearly the end that
the entire story is revealed. Meanwhile, I found myself
becoming as frustrated as the rest of her family, who were
desperate to know the truth.
In fact, I found the whole family frustrating to read about.
Cadence has sessions with her psychiatrist in which she
refuses to answer his questions, but continues to go to him
out of ''boredom and loneliness''; Chloe refuses to reveal
the circumstances that led to her expulsion; Richard cannot
decide whether or not to take up an offer of a poetry
scholarship to graduate school; and Elson spends a lot of
time regretting choices made in his earlier life.
I began this book with high expectations, as there is a
positive quote about the author's previous work from
Marilynne Robinson on its back cover, and Porter has won
several awards for his short fiction. But although themes
such as the importance of communication within a marriage and
the destructive impact a parental divorce can have on older
adolescents were strongly covered, the characters and their
problems failed to connect with me.

Pride, Rowan Seen as Attractive M&A Candidates
The drilling moratorium in the Gulf of Mexico makes rig contractors Pride International Inc. and Rowan Cos. attractive merger and acquisition candidates, Sanford Bernstein & Co. said today.
Scott Gruber, an analyst at Sanford Bernstein, wrote in a note that rental rates for rigs are likely to head lower because of the "market disrupting" six-month moratorium on U.S. deep-water drilling coupled with a supply of new rigs being built in the next few years.
Rates for drillers in general are projected to be down about 33 percent from current spot rates in deep water and 45 percent for rigs operating in middle water depths, he wrote.
Pride, the Houston-based oil and natural-gas driller with rigs working from Brazil to India, owns or manages 27 offshore units operating mostly in deep water. Rowan, the Houston-based drilling contractor that makes its own rigs, operates mostly in shallow water with its 28 offshore rigs. The company also has 32 land rigs.
"The Gulf oil spill and deep-water drilling moratorium could hardly come at a worse time for the offshore drillers," Gruber wrote today in a note to investors. "With equity valuations compressed, this suggests that M&A is on the horizon."
An Acquirer
Suzanne McLeod, a spokeswoman for Rowan, said the company believes in a diversified fleet.
"If anything, we'd like to be an acquirer," McLeod said today in a telephone interview. "We continue to monitor opportunities on the deep-water asset side."
Kate Perez, a spokeswoman for Pride, said in a telephone interview the company doesn't comment on "rumors and speculation."
Pride and Rowan are cited as acquisition targets based on the combination of attractive assets, low stock prices, attractive geographic exposure and the tax benefits for certain international drillers who might buy them, Gruber said today in an e-mail.
Rowan has fallen 21 percent and Pride has dropped 23 percent since the April 20 rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico.
While the drop in stock prices may make drillers more attractive to potential buyers, the companies generally aren't in bad enough financial shape to welcome a takeover offer, said Lewis Kreps, an analyst at C.K. Cooper in Dallas.
"Almost every offshore driller has a very good balance sheet right now," Kreps said.
Drilling Moratorium
The explosion aboard the Deepwater Horizon rig, which was leased to BP Plc, sank the rig and damaged the undersea well, causing it to gush as much 40,000 barrels a day, according to estimates by government scientists. That prompted the government to call a temporary halt to Gulf deep-water drilling while safety issues are studied.
U.S. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar told a Senate committee June 9 the drilling halt may end sooner than the six months.
Pride rose $1.21, or 5 percent, to $25.30 at 4:01 p.m. in New York Stock Exchange composite trading. Rowan rose $1.57, or
6.7 percent, to $25.17.

Caledonia, MN
Many older buildings in Caledonia are built of locally quarried rock and plastered with native lime sandstone. This includes the Houston County Courthouse, Jail and Scheck's Mill.
The area is criss-crossed with spring fed streams which run winter and summer. A natural supply of trout hide in the watercress covered stream beds. Hiking, skiing, groomed snowmobile trails, camping facilities, picnic areas, a picturesque nine hole golf course, parks and playgrounds are available for your enjoyment. Caledonia offers walking and driving tours for all seasons.
The Houston County Historical complex features a log home, the Daily Schoolhouse and two buildings with most of their original furnishings--the Mayville Township Hall and the Sheldon Presbyterian Church.
Fall brings a spectacular blaze of color to the hills and bluffs, with shocks of corn appearing in the woven fields of the contour farmed land. Contour farming, which originated in this area to combat soil erosion, creates a montage of swirling corn and hay, weaving around the rolling hills.
In October the town is decorated with scarecrows. Unique Christmas lighting outlines the buildings of the downtown area in December. A Christmas parade is also held in December.
Caledonia, the Wild Turkey Capital of Minnesota, offers an abundance of wildlife for hunters and observers alike. The forest offers a home for a variety of birds. Sportsmen are rewarded with bountiful numbers of wild turkey, deer, and trout.

So here's the setup...
1. I create site for client
2. I use clients name as the admin name. Let's say it's RJohnson
3. Since the email associated with RJohnson is my email, WP uses my gravatar on it.
4. Now when I want to create a NEW RJohnson, of course the name is taken and can't be used.
What's the solution here? I was wanting to just make a new name like R_Johnson and give that to the client, but the client in question is incredibly UNsavvy with internet stuff and would mix up the two names. Can't I just assign a custom avatar to the first RJohnson that was made?

The story behind the missionary reality TV show, 'The District'
"San Diego was hard because of the topic," Allen said. "Part of the beauty is they are not perfect. This allows missionaries watching to hit pause and break down the situation like game film for an athlete. That's how they learn. What did they do well? What didn't go well? How would you do it differently? By the end, they were all dynamic teachers."
Once "The District 2" was completed, for the first time, missionaries around the world were granted permission to have a DVD player in their apartments so they could study the material.
Footage was also edited to create eight 30-minute episodes of "The District" for BYUtv. According to a 2012 Deseret News article, BYUtv creative director Scott Swofford participated in the San Diego project as the missionary department's media director before accepting a position at BYUtv. Swofford, who helped pioneer the church's "I'm a Mormon" videos, played an important role in bringing "The District" to BYUtv, the article said.
"We realized that, on any level, the real story about what Mormon missionaries do all day long is a very entertaining story," Swofford said in the article. "Regardless of whether you're a Mormon or whether you're even interested in Mormon things, this is really compelling television."
President Lee Donaldson, then-president of the California San Diego Mission, said the experience both energized the mission and blessed individuals. When those involved were struggling, which happened often, priesthood blessings were given. Other missionaries were aware of what was happening but never became jealous. It was all about the work, the former mission president said.
"It's been fun to see the ripple effect. The experience helped me to develop more love and understanding for my missionaries and what they were going through," he said. "Another lesson I took away is God will use anybody who is willing. There might have been more charismatic or talented missionaries, but these missionaries were just willing, as many others were willing. It's never about our talent; it's what we are willing to do, whether it's serve in front of a camera or in an obscure part of the world."
Today, Christensen is close to finishing a degree at BYU and works part-time at the MTC as a workshop trainer. At times he wonders how or why he was selected to be part of District 2. He feels he did what any missionary would have done in the same situation.
"I didn't audition for it. It was definitely one of those surreal experiences where all these dominoes lined up and here I am," Christensen said. "All I really did, honestly, is go on a mission. I did what every other young man in the church would do. That's all."
For Allen, a memorable moment came at the end of filming "The District 2." Everyone who had participated was like family now. For the final day of filming, arrangements were made for District 1 to come to San Diego and meet District 2. When District 1 walked into the room, mouths dropped to the floor, Allen said.
" 'It's them,' they said," Allen recalled. "It was unbelievably wonderful."
"This is the work that I am personally most pleased with," Allen said.
Post-production impact
The missionary department has continued to maintain close ties and friendships with these missionaries as they get married, start families and pursue education and careers. Many, like Christensen, have shared their knowledge and experience as instructors at the MTC. They are recognized everywhere they go.
"They are like rock stars," Allen said.
The first time Christensen spoke to Jacqueline Tanner, a cute girl in the library and his future fiancée, somebody recognized him from the DVDs and interrupted their conversation. When the person left, Tanner surprised Christensen with a question: "Aren't you glad I didn't do that?"
"It turns out she had served a mission and recognized me from the DVDs, but she had forgotten my name," Christensen said with a laugh. "She thought I was cute."

The Bump Baby Registry
Now is the perfect time to start your Baby Registry!START A REGISTRY
I have uterine fibroids. How will this affect my pregnancy?
Uterine fibroids (or growths in your uterus) are actually the most common growth in a woman's pelvis, and usually won't cause problems during pregnancy. But if you've been having symptoms like pain or discomfort, you should definitely talk to your doc. Fibroids may grow during pregnancy and in some cases can increase the risk of miscarriage, preterm birth, or breech birth. In rare cases, your doctor may recommend a myomectomy, or the surgical removal of fibroids. But more often than not, fibroids are nothing more than a pain in the butt, so don't let them worry you too much unless your symptoms grow problematic.

Last-Minute Lasagna
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 35 mins
A great-tasting, easy recipe that I found in Martha Stewart's Real Simple magazine. The leftovers are good to reheat for lunch the next day, too. For those more careful eaters, use light cheese and turkey pepperoni. Unless you are a grease-fiend, the end result will taste just as good. Omit the pepperoni for a vegetarian meal.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 (26 ounce) jar pasta sauce (tomato-based)
- 1 (30 ounce) bagfrozen large cheese ravioli, unthawed
- 1 (10 ounce) box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 3 ounces sliced pepperoni, approx. (optional)
- 1 (8 ounce) bagshredded mozzarella cheese
- 1⁄2 cup grated parmesan cheese (preferably fresh)
- Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Coat a 13x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Pour 1/3 of the sauce in the bottom of prepared pan.
- Arrange 12 frozen ravioli on top, and scatter the spinach over them.
- If using, place pepperoni slices evenly over spinach, and top with half of each cheese.
- Cover with another layer of ravioli, and the remaining sauce and cheese.
- Cover pan with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
- Uncover and bake 5-10 minutes more, or until bubbly.
- Allow to rest for 5 minutes before cutting.
Most Helpful
My husband and I LOVED it. I changed the recipe some. I added some grated carrots, red onions and artichoke bottoms. You need to add more pasta sauce if you are going to add extra vegetables.
I made this with frozen artichokes in place of the spinach and artichoke ravioli I found at Costco. I omitted the pepperoni to make it vegetarian. Everyone loved it. Very quick and easy. I forgot to thaw the ravioli so I just cooked it longer, about 45 minutes.
Easy and very good, the whole family enjoyed this. Great dinner idea for a busy night. Used turkey pepperoni but omitted the spinach. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

West Texas A&M football coach Don Carthel has applied for at least two coaching jobs, including NCAA Division I New Mexico State.
According to the Las Cruces (N.M.) Sun-News, Carthel sent in paperwork to NMSU, which is seeking a successor to Hal Mumme. Mumme, an assistant coach at WT in 1980-81, was dismissed after his fourth season.
The Alexandria (La.) Town Talk published an online list that included Carthel and two other Lone Star Conference coaches among 38 applicants to succeed Northwestern State coach Scott Stoker, whose contract was not renewed after his seventh season.
Northwestern State is a member of Football Championship Subdivision (formerly I-AA).
"I'm not interested in the job," Carthel said Friday of the NSU post. Carthel declined further comment.
Carthel recently completed his fourth season at WT, where he has a 44-7 record, four postseason appearances and three Lone Star Conference championships.
His base salary is close to $100,000, according to university records. With TV, radio and bonuses, his annual salary is between $120,000 and $130,000.
By comparison, Mike Leach, coach of Division I Texas Tech, has a base salary of $1.75 million.
"Our intent over the past three years is to reward and compensate our coaches who have been successful over the long haul. Don has been exceptional," WT athletic director Michael McBroom said. "We want our coaches to be compensated among the best in the conference and the region. We have made significant progress in that regard.
"If there is a better opportunity than ours, a coach owes it to his family to check it out. It's part of the business. I believe WT is a pretty good place to be a head coach, and I think Don feels the same way."
McBroom said some Division II coaches are better paid than FCS or even Division I coaches, depending on the program or location.
New Mexico State would like to fill its vacancy by Christmas.
Ken Norton Jr., linebackers coach at Southern Cal, has turned down the job, the Sun-News reported. Pittsburgh Steelers running back coach Kirby Wilson also is seeking the job, according to a Sun-News online story.
Northwestern State on Thursday named its six finalists, including Abilene Christian coach Chris Thomsen. Not chosen as a finalist was Midwestern State coach Bill Maskill.
Thomsen guided ACU to the LSC championship this past season and to the third round of the Division II playoffs. He has a 33-13 record in four years at ACU.

I have tried
wget -m
wget -r and a whole bunch of variations. I am getting some of the images on http://site.com, one of the scripts, and none of the CSS, even with the fscking
-p parameter. The only HTML page is index.html and there are several more referenced, so I am at a loss.
curlmirror.pl on the cURL developers website does not seem to get the job done either. Is there something I am missing? I have tried different levels of recursion with only this URL, but I get the feeling I am missing something. Long story short, some school allows its students to submit web projects, but they want to know how they can collect everything for the instructor who will grade it, instead of him going to all the externally hsoted sites.
UPDATE: I think I figured out the issue. I though the links to the other pages were in the index.html page that downloaded. I was way off. Turns out the footer of the page, which has all the navigation links, is handled by a JavaScript file
Include.js, which reads
JLSSiteMap.js and some other JS files to do page navigation and the like. As a result, wget does not pick up an other dependencies because a lot of this crap is handled not on web pages. How can I handle such a website? This is one of several problem cases. I assume little can be done if wget cannot parse JavaScript.

Cincinnati Reds news, rumors and injuries
Sat, 23 Jul 2016 20:20:07 -0700
Cincinnati Reds OF Jay Bruce went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and a double in a 6-1 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks Sunday, July 23.
Fantasy Tip: Bruce is up to 20 homers, and he remains a must-start in all formats thanks to his power potential.

Reds | Three steals for Billy Hamilton
Fri, 22 Jul 2016 20:02:27 -0700
Cincinnati Reds OF Billy Hamilton went 2-for-4 with two runs scored, three steals and a walk in a 6-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks Friday, July 22.
Fantasy Tip: Hamilton is riding a modest five-game hitting streak, and he has seven steals over the stretch. When he is reaching base at a decent clip, he can be a fantasy stud in both season-long and DFS formats.

Cincinnati Reds 1B Joey Votto homered for the third time in four games, finishing 1-for-3 with three RBI, two runs scored and two walks in a 6-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks Friday, July 22.
Fantasy Tip: Votto has raised his average from .252 to .271 since the All-Star break. Take advantage of his hot streak in DFS formats.

Reds | Homer Bailey to pitch Monday
Fri, 22 Jul 2016 14:46:58 -0700
Cincinnati Reds SP Homer Bailey (elbow) will make another rehab start with Class AAA Louisville Monday, July 25.
Fantasy Tip: Bailey made two starts in 2015 before he was injured and needed Tommy John surgery. Given that he pitched well for Cincy previously, including a no-hitter, Bailey should definitely be monitored in the majority of leagues. There's no guarantee he'll return favorable results for however much he pitches in 2016, but he's worth stashing now in cavernous mixed and NL leagues. Monitor his progress everywhere else.

Reds | Rangers looking at Anthony DeSclafani
Fri, 22 Jul 2016 09:29:13 -0700
Cincinnati Reds SP Anthony DeSclafani is among the "rotation names" being considered by the Texas Rangers as the trade deadline approaches.
Fantasy Tip: DeSclafani's stock has risen considerably since returning from an oblique injury that sidelined him the first two months of the campaign. He's 5-0 in eight starts with a 2.50 ERA, while registering a solid 40-to-9 K/BB ratio across 50 1/3 total innings. The right-hander would get a sizable boost if dealt to Texas, as although Arlington doesn't feature favorable conditions for pitchers, it's not that different from Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati, plus he would be in a much better position for wins.

Reds | Homer Bailey makes rehab start
Wed, 20 Jul 2016 15:50:46 -0700
Cincinnati Reds SP Homer Bailey (elbow) pitched in a rehab game Wednesday, July 20, for Class AAA Louisville. He went 5 1/3 innings and surrendered five runs, throwing 53 of 83 pitches for strikes.
Fantasy Tip: Bailey is getting closer to making it back to the Reds after missing more than a year due to Tommy John surgery. He'll be someone to consider right away, considering the notable success he had in Cincinnati before going down with the injury, but probably should be scouted first by owners in case he endures struggles upon his return.

Reds | Joey Votto continues strong July
Wed, 20 Jul 2016 15:29:57 -0700
Cincinnati Reds 1B Joey Votto went 1-for-3 with his 16th home run of the season Wednesday, July 20, versus the Atlanta Braves. He finished the game with a run scored and two RBI, and he also drew a walk.
Fantasy Tip: Votto has been enjoying a scorching July, now hitting 18-for-45 (.400) for the month with a pair of homers and 10 runs scored. As expected, the former NL MVP has recovered nicely from a disastrous start and is always worth starting every time he's in the lineup.

Reds | Anthony DeSclafani improves to 5-0
Wed, 20 Jul 2016 15:28:55 -0700
Cincinnati Reds SP Anthony DeSclafani upped his record to 5-0 after beating the Atlanta Braves in his start Wednesday, July 20. The right-hander churned out eight strong innings, yielding only two runs on eight hits, including a solo homer. He also struck out three and walked none.
Fantasy Tip: DeSclafani is someone whom fantasy owners should be looking at, as he's now hurled quality starts in seven of his eight assignments since making his season debut after missing the first two months with an oblique issue. He's worthy of being added in deep mixed leagues and if this keeps up, he'll be a valid option in standard formats, too.

Reds | Eugenio Suarez hitting fifth
Wed, 20 Jul 2016 07:40:43 -0700
Cincinnati Reds 3B Eugenio Suarez is hitting fifth Wednesday, July 20.
Fantasy Tip: Suarez's average has really taken a hit, and his lefty-righty splits are pretty drastic. He has a .293-7-17 line in 82 at-bats against lefties, and he has a .210-9-25 line in 248 at-bats against righties. He faces right-hander Lucas Harrell today, but his spot in the lineup gives him some luster at the right price.

Reds | Adam Duvall takes a seat
Wed, 20 Jul 2016 07:40:15 -0700
Cincinnati Reds OF Adam Duvall is out of the lineup Wednesday, July 20, with OF Jose Peraza hitting seventh.
Fantasy Tip: Peraza is hitting just .237 with 10 steals on the year. He's a much better option in traditional leagues because you can't bank on steals in DFS. The matchup against Lucas Harrell is decent, though, if you want to use a low-end flyer.

Reds | Jon Moscot has Tommy John surgery
Tue, 19 Jul 2016 22:15:49 -0700
Cincinnati Reds SP Jon Moscot (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery Tuesday, July 19.
Fantasy Tip: Moscot holds a career 6.82 ERA over eight starts since first getting called up last season. He has a long way to go before becoming fantasy relevant, but hopefully the right-hander is able to come back strong from this. Unfortunately, he'll probably miss the entire 2017 season.

Reds | Cody Reed logs first quality start
Tue, 19 Jul 2016 21:55:19 -0700
Cincinnati Reds SP Cody Reed recorded the first quality start of his career Tuesday, July 19, against the Atlanta Braves. He fired six innings and scattered just five hits, while yielding two runs (zero earned). The southpaw also struck out five and walked two.
Fantasy Tip: Well, it took him six big league outings but Reed was finally able to rack up his first quality start here, and he did it in fairly impressive fashion. The potential is there, as Reed gained recognition for his strikeout ability in the minor leagues, and it's been prevalent thus far since being called up, as he now has 34 strikeouts in 30 2/3 total innings. He's worth being monitored for that reason alone, though owners should also keep in mind that Cincinnati is 0-6 in his starts.

Reds | Big game for Billy Hamilton
Mon, 18 Jul 2016 23:18:02 -0700
Cincinnati Reds OF Billy Hamilton singled three times Monday, July 18, against the Atlanta Braves and he picked up three stolen bases to push his total to 27, third-most in the National League.
Fantasy Tip: Hamilton doesn't hit for a high average, but he racks up plenty of steals for fantasy owners in rotisserie leagues to justify using him.

Reds | Zack Cozart matches career best
Mon, 18 Jul 2016 23:17:23 -0700
Cincinnati Reds SS Zack Cozart launched his 15th home run of the season Monday, July 18, against the Atlanta Braves to tie a career high. Twelve of his 15 homers have been of the solo variety.
Fantasy Tip: Cozart has emerged as a must-start fantasy option in all NL-only formats, deeper mixed leagues and DFS play for power from the middle infielder position.

Reds | Brandon Finnegan picks up victory
Mon, 18 Jul 2016 23:10:59 -0700
Cincinnati Reds SP Brandon Finnegan allowed two earned runs, seven hits and a walk with five strikeouts over five innings in a win Monday, July 18, against the Atlanta Braves. He threw 57 of his 96 pitches for strikes.
Fantasy Tip: The southpaw has won back-to-back starts for the first time this season, and back-to-back decisions for just the second time all year. He remains useful in deeper NL-only formats for now, as he needs to go deeper into games to emerge as a useful mixed league play.

So, did everybody work from home on 18 May? What? You didn't know it was Work From Home Day? OK, a little secret – these things are usually a gimmick thought up by someone with a marketing budget for a home working widget, you know it and I know it. Father's Day is soon, and that was an American invention from a greetings card company.
Work from Home Day, however, had the backing of WorkWise UK. There are proven benefits from home workers (a home-based worker writes). There is no stressful commute; my walk to work consists of taking the dog around the park. There is a time saving. There is no silly fiddling of expenses for a second home (ooh, topical).
There is also a huge amount of technology to help make it work. Microsoft Office Live is a classic example of a suite of stuff that helps you to work wherever you are. Add a little internet phoning and you're up and running whether you're at home, in the office or out and about.
My concern is that there's a lot of bandwaggoning here without people considering the practicalities. The technology is certainly excellent and Microsoft has done a lot to support people in this – but technology companies tend not to make chairs. I'm a terrible slouch and not all that good at keeping the office tidy – but I don't work at the kitchen table, I have a desk. Where is the health and safety regulation in here?
OK, suppose we don't get all Health and Safety – but if you're a business owner who allows/encourages people to work from home, has it occurred to you that if they have an accident or develop a back problem you're still liable? Here's another thought. What if their computer is stolen? Assuming it's used for home business, is it covered by their home insurance or your business insurance because they use it for work?
By now, readers will be divided into two camps. The first will be thinking this is obvious stuff, of course they'd taken it as read that they needed to advise employees on home working set-ups and insurance. They may not even have read this far. In my experience there will also be a second group, possibly larger – reading this and a little stunned because they'd taken all of that stuff as read.
These aren't difficult things to sort out, is the good news. They're worth looking into. Home working offers numerous benefits – the gotchas, sadly, have received hardly any attention in too many cases.
This is a guest-post from Guy Clapperton, a freelance journalist who has specialised in the small business arena for over a decade.

PERTH Aug 9 Australia's thermal coal prices remained flat around the $120 per tonne level in the week to Monday as demand in the region failed to strengthen.
Thermal coal on the globalCOAL Newcastle index, a benchmark for Asia, for the week to date was $120.18 per tonne on Monday, down from $120.50 a week earlier.
Prices for Newcastle specification coal have remained in a range around the $120 per tonne level since shortly after an earthquake struck Japan, Australia's largest coal customer.
During that time, the Pacific coal market has seen a big drop in market liquidity, but some said Japanese demand may pick up toward the end of the year.
"Everyone is thinking that Japan will return to the market in the fourth quarter," one Australia-based trade source said.
In the meantime, sources said, they saw some suppliers stuck with extra inventory, but unwilling to drop prices below the levels seen in recent months.
On Tuesday, a 25,000-tonne parcel of Australian thermal coal for September delivery traded at $118 per tonne free-on-board, on the globalCOAL electronic trading platform. On Friday, a 25,000-tonne parcel was traded at $118.50 per tonne FOB.
In South Korea, Korea South East Power Co Ltd (KOSEP) said it was seeking a total of 835,000 tonnes of sub-bituminous or bituminous coal for delivery between late August and the end of the calendar year, via tenders.
Demand from China remained low after a summer during which the world's largest energy consumer had snapped up some Australian coal, with domestic prices down slightly to 831 yuan ($129.117) per tonne for 5,500 kcal/kg net-as-received coal.
China, the largest producer as well as consumer of coal, tends to turn to imports only when high domestic prices make imports more economically attractive.

Analyzing Listening Tests with the Directional Two-Tailed Test
Researchers typically analyze double-blind listening tests with a one-tailed significance test, which provides for deciding whether performance is better than chance. But the little-known directional two-tailed test, which provides for deciding whether performance is better or worse than chance, may be more useful to some investigators. This paper compares the tests, discusses when to use them, and provides statistical tables for conducting the tests without calculation.

In this paper, a competitive method for 3-D face recognition (FR) using spherical harmonic features (SHF) is proposed. With this solution, 3-D face models are characterized by the energies contained in spherical harmonics with different frequencies, thereby enabling the capture of both gross shape and fine surface details of a 3-D facial surface. This is in clear contrast to most 3-D FR techniques which are either holistic or feature based, using local features extracted from distinctive points. First, 3-D face models are represented in a canonical representation, namely, spherical depth map, by which SHF can be calculated. Then, considering the predictive contribution of each SHF feature, especially in the presence of facial expression and occlusion, feature selection methods are used to improve the predictive performance and provide faster and more cost-effective predictors. Experiments have been carried out on three public 3-D face datasets, SHREC2007, FRGC v2.0, and Bosphorus, with increasing difficulties in terms of facial expression, pose, and occlusion, and which demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Answered: What is the best way to filter one carousel based on data from another?
I have two carousel's. One with categories and one with detail information.
Im trying to filter the second(detail) carousel based upon the active item of the first.
bolItem = active; cntStore.filter('MCRTIT', bolItem); carousel3.doLayout();
It appears to be filtering correctly, but is not rebuilding the carousel.
Any suggestions?
Thank You in Advance
There is no built in binding between a carousel and store so you would have to add listeners to the store to rebuilt the carousel.

I like spending time drawing at The American Museum of Natural History. For this project I drew 132 of the birds at the museum. There are owls and eagles and finches and hornbills and about one hundred others. I draw these birds because I am interested in learning about both their similarities and differences. I also really like how they look. This edition is a result of this documentation.

Fresh start for ex-lovers of celebrities
"Mistresses Makeover" at doctors' offices in Newport Beach.

Slide show: "Notorious? Talent agency wants you"
[caption id="attachment_25212" align="alignright" width="350" caption="Gina Rodriguez / Photo by Michael Goulding, Orange County Register"][/caption]
For Violet Kowal, getting a fresh start in 2011 means getting breast implants.
For Merilee Gerth, it's Botox injections and facial fillers.
For Michelle "Bombshell" McGee, it's Lasik eye surgery.
All three were in Newport Beach this month to get that fresh start, but don't mistake them for ordinary Newport Beach women.
They came to town for an event called Mistresses Makeover.
They all are clients of a talent agency that specializes in helping women benefit from and then move beyond their 15 minutes of notoriety as the former lovers of celebrities.
For Kowal, the celebrity was newly divorced actor/director Mel Gibson, who allegedly had a fling with her in 2009 while his longer-term girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva, was pregnant with his child.
For Gerth and McGee, the semi-celebrity was Jesse James, the quintuple-timing former husband of actress Sandra Bullock.
Gina Rodriguez, a former porn star, founded the DD Entertainment talent agency to help just such people who have had a brush with notoriety, or are tarred with it.
The list of DD's customers reads like a Who's Who of tabloid journalism. Past and present clients, Rodriguez said, include alleged White House party crashers Michaele and Tareq Salahi, who appeared on "Real Housewives of D.C."; Michael Lohan, the father of actress Lindsey Lohan; Kate Major, the former Star magazine reporter who reportedly was romantically linked to Jon Gosselin and now is engaged to Michael Lohan; and Jeff Miranda, former boyfriend of Snooki from "Jersey Shore."
From her stable of low-level celebrities, Rodriguez brought McGee, Gerth and Kowal to plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Niccole's offices next to the Balboa Island bridge in mid-January. The agency and the clients shared the cost of the treatments, she said.
The goal was to help change each woman's public image by shifting the focus to the women themselves and away from the celebrities they had been involved with, she said. To accomplish that, she invited media coverage of the Mistresses Makeover.
"There have been lots of mistresses over the past year involved in different sex scandals," Rodriguez said. "I try to help them develop a career out of it."
[caption id="attachment_25218" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Niccole / Photo by Michael Goulding, Orange County Register"][/caption]
Mistresses of celebrities suffer from a "negative stigma in the industry and in society," Niccole said, so they rely on cosmetic medicine to help them "feel good about themselves and build up their self-esteem."
Such treatments are a must for some stars and would-be stars, he said.
"In the entertainment industry, men and women have to maintain a higher level of beauty" than other people, Niccole said. "They are always on camera and need to look perfect. They're coming in constantly for refreshers."
Rodriguez said her goal is "to get people to know the girl, not just as No. 7" in a line of mistresses.
Mistresses Makeover is aimed at giving the women some publicity that would help them move beyond their notoriety and "build a platform to market themselves," she said.
For Kowal, her post-Mel career is divided among a designer handbag line, work as a model, a proposed reality TV show, and her film production company, Silver Blade Media, which is working on "The Gathering," an action movie about a Greek god, she said.
For Gerth, her post-Jesse-James career could include work as a TV personality and as a cast member of a possible reality TV show, Rodriguez said.
But Gerth is more focused on continuing her former work as a paralegal and a tax preparer. She formerly worked for Merrill Lynch, American Funds and Pimco in Newport Beach, as well as James's West Coast Choppers in Long Beach, she said. Now she helps clients of DD Entertainment negotiate contracts and establish businesses for themselves.
As Rodriguez sees it, McGee's career goals include working as a "TV personality," making paid public appearances, and cashing in on her notoriety by making endorsements such as her recent promotion of an online dating website that specializes in extramarital affairs.
Rodriguez, 43, acted in pornographic movies until a couple of years ago. "I wanted to get out of that, and I wanted to help others do the same," she said.
[caption id="attachment_25222" align="alignright" width="400" caption="Dr. Michael Niccole discusses breast implants with Violet Kowal / Photo by Pacific Coast News"][/caption]
Her opportunity to make a change came shortly after the revelation of golf champion Tiger Woods' extra-marital affairs in late 2009. Rodriguez knew Joslyn James, a porn actress who suddenly was plunged into a media maelstrom because she reportedly had had a three-year affair with Woods.
"Joslyn James lived in my home for three months" to protect her from the media and to help get her back on her feet, Rodriguez said.
Then came other reported lovers of Tiger Woods -- Jamie Jungers, Loredana Jolie, Holly Sampson and Devon James – plus other celebrities' former flames, all seeking help, she said.
"Thirteen mistresses later, I founded DD Entertainment."
She's no angel. Her desire to end her porn acting career doesn't mean she has cut ties with the adult entertainment industry. Several of her clients still perform in pornographic movies. "Celebrity sex tapes" is one of the career options that she helps clients pursue. She also helped produce adult films spoofing Woods' escapades.
"My clients aren't all mistresses. They're all people who were involved in some negative publicity," Rodriguez said. "I handle PR catastrophes."
She became her own PR catastrophe last year when she was labeled as the "third mistress" of married "Bones" TV star David Boreanaz. She denied there was anything more than friendship between them.
Mistresses Makeovers are important for her female clients, she said.
"They all have a lot of insecurities," she said. "The public can be cruel. They attack them for how they look, compare them with other mistresses and the wives."
"They need to start fresh for the new year."
[caption id="attachment_25224" align="alignright" width="350" caption="Merilee Gerth gets a Botox injection / Photo by Pacific Coast News"][/caption]
Gerth's fresh start goes beyond her Botox and filler injections. She also consulted with Niccole about how to end the pains caused by breast implants that she got 17 years ago. The doctor told her the next step will be an MRI.
Gerth praised Rodriguez for helping her "get through the craziness" of her 15 minutes of notoriety last year. She sued James, her former boss at West Coast Choppers, for sexual harassment
Kowal said breast implants are important for her fresh start as a model because her intense five-day-a-week training regimen caused her breasts to shrink. "They will be a new beginning for my business life," she said.
DD Entertainment has helped her "adjust to the new lifestyle" that the reports of her fling with Mel Gibson threw her into, she said. She hasn't seen him for more than a year, she said, but the notoriety that he brought to her accelerated her career.
McGee consulted with Niccole during the Mistresses Makeover, but her immediate goal was to improve her vision. That same day, she visited eye surgeon Dr. Gregg Feinerman, also in Newport Beach.
By last week, she was back for her fresh start -- Lasik surgery.
For McGee, a fresh start doesn't mean easing up on her wild reputation. At Feinerman's office she found an old copy of People magazine about Sandra Bullock and Jesse James, so she posed for photos sticking her tongue into Sandra Bullock's face.

Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Corel AfterShot Pro is a fast, flexible photos workflow solution that combines robust photo management, advanced non-destructive editing and complete RAW processing. Organize your photos in catalogs or folders. Find images quickly with extensive Metadata tools. Experiment with and alter images freely with non-destructive adjustments and apply enhancements precisely with selective editing. With RAW support, powerful batch processing and a variety of output options, AfterShot Pro is the fast way to professional photos.
Complete RAW Workflow
Whether viewing, rating, sorting, editing, or exporting images, AfterShot Pro provides workflow options not found anywhere else.

AfterShot Pro lets you use one catalog, many catalogs, or no asset management at all. With no restrictions or pre-defined process to follow, you can work whatever way suits you best.
Advanced, Non-Destructive Editing
Inspired by the renowned selective-editing features that made Bibble Labs a force in the industry, AfterShot Pro lets you non-destructively apply any adjustment or correction to all or a portion of a photo. And a fully stocked imageediting toolset allows you to do your work in AfterShot Pro without switching over to a deeper editing tool.

Lake Creek Alaska - Fishing Alaska Salmon and Trout on our home river
Lake Creek Alaska begins as a random flake of snow on some random glacier off some random mountain side, still unnamed; on the southern face of Alaska's Denali National Park. Do to pure randomness, Lake Creek is a clear-water, freestone Alaska river system teeming with rainbow trout, arctic grayling and provides great Alaska salmon fishing for all 5 salmon species. The randomness is in the fact that Lake Creek wouldn't be the clear-water river system it is without the lake that feeds it, and the many spring-fed creeks that run into it during it's 60 mile march south to the glaciated Yentna River. The lake, Lake Chelatna, is fed by mainly glacial runoff on the north end from looming ice-laden mountains within Denali National Park. Chelatna Lake is a trough for one of the largest drainage systems of the south Alaska range. It is approximately 8 miles long by 1/2 to a 1 mile wide in parts. It is an extremely deep, cold water oligotrophic lake that supports a healthy lake trout population and sustains rainbow trout during winter. Chelatna also provides ideal spawning habitat for sockeye salmon in summertime. Sockeye fry become a key food source for trout and grayling over winter. The lake is a natural settling pond for silt and sediment deposited by glacial melt from the north and spring snow-melt from the surrounding mountains. By the time the random flake of snow melts and trickles downhill to the southern end of Lake Chelatna, it's free of sediment, clear and glistening as it feeds into what is now Lake Creek proper or the "creek fed from the lake." Lake Creek in the native Dena'ina tongue is called: "Hneh'itnu Heneh'itnu" or 'upland creek'.
The Dynamics of Lake Creek
Lake Creek is significant due to the fact it should be a glacial river, but by chance it's set up to become one of the most picturesque clear-water Alaska rivers. The river is covered with huge glacial erratic boulders deposited in the recession of the last Alaskan ice age approximately 10 - 15 thousand years ago. The largest boulders were deposited upstream, yet the lower river is comprised mainly of till gravel from pea-sized pebbles to rocks the size of your fist. Talk about ideal habitat for spawning salmon, aquatic insects and hungry trout! Also, because the bottom content is a smaller sediment size, the river bottom is constantly changing and redefining itself each season. When fishing Lake Creek Alaska, each year you can expect some dramatic change. That is the reason this fishery is truly one-of-a-kind.
Fishing Lake Creek, Alaska
Wade fishing is our focus on Lake Creek. There are methods of boat fishing the lower river, predominately for king salmon, but we prefer to wade fish or hike the numerous gravel bars that line the river's edge. Fishing with conventional spin fishing equipment is highly productive for all salmon and trout and there are many versatile techniques that are effective. Fly fishing is extremely effective, not just for the seasoned pros, but for newbies who have never conceived of fly fishing! The fishery is rich and the river is fairly easy to fish even if you're not yet a 'master-caster.' The thrill of learning a new art and catching good numbers of fish is one of the many bonuses of fishing with us in this great place. For those in seek of a true 'off-the-beaten-path adventure," we highly recommend one of our remote Lake Creek float trips. Float trips are the only true way to see the tremendous diversity of Lake Creek Alaska from source to mouth and experience blue ribbon fishing, fantastic panoramas and wildlife en route! Overall, we think you'll fall in love with our precious piece of Alaska's nature. The tranquility of a river like this we strive to preserve for all future generations to come.
