About two months or so ago, I was perusing one of my favorite blogs, A Beautiful Mess, when I came across a post that was about a DIY welcome mat. As soon as I saw the project, I knew it was something I wanted to try.
How cute is that? They did such an awesome job and I love the simplicity and vibrancy of it.
Since my best friend and her husband just bought their very first home, I knew that I wanted to give them something homemade and since I don't own a chisel or know how to get my hands on a giant stone from which to sculpt a massive statue of Zeus for their front lawn, I thought this seemed perfect!
DIY Welcome Mat
- Plain welcome mat–I got mine at Target.
- Latex or porch paint–Though the ABM ladies suggested porch paint because of its durability, they did say that you could use any latex paint so I got four testers of latex paint which was much less expensive than porch paint.
- Craft brushes–Make sure they can be used with acrylic/latex paint. The ones I picked up are by Martha Stewart.
*All my supplies were purchased at Home Depot.
First, I laid out the paint chips above the mat, switching this one with that one until I felt like I had a good color scheme going.
The second time is actually where I departed from the ABM tutorial and did my own thing. And, I am not sure I can actually recommend what I did because I think it worked out via pure luck.
The ladies suggested using poster board and contact paper as a stencil for the letters but I decided to wing it and start painting free hand. I didn't even write it out in pencil or pen. Good idea, right?
I know, I know, but I felt confident so I decided to go for it!
I wanted to use a vibrant color scheme so I chose to paint with Glidden Duo Paint and Primer testers in Watermelon Smoothie, Pool Party, Dazzling Daffodil, and New Grass Green.
Painting it freehand went shockingly well with the "M" just being slightly more narrow than the rest of the letters because of the rug wanting to curl right in that area. If your rug comes rolled up, I would suggest rolling it in the opposite direction or flattening it out with some heavy books the night before. This may sound like common sense to you, but to me, it didn't cross my mind until AFTER I started painting.
While the DIY itself was pretty easy it was a little time consuming. The first round of painting took me about an hour and then every coat after that (I did three coats) took about 40 minutes each (10 minutes per letter) for a total of 2 hours and 20 minutes. MATH!
In the end, I really liked the way it came out, and I think I might even end up painting one for our house as well!

Hey all,
So I just bought this new wordpress theme and recieved the following 'Internal Server Error' upon attempting to install it:
The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.
I read online and on these forums a bit and tried finding a solution. I added a text file called info.php and found the ini file directory.. but its a really strange one, and not on my computer. I guess on my host file server? This is what i got...
Configuration File (php.ini) Path : /usr/local/lib/php-5.2.17/lib
Loaded Configuration File :/opt/users/ipg/z/e/ipg.zerosharpscom/php5/php.ini
By the way, I'm simply trying to install this theme I just bought and just need to increase the upload size. The size of this theme is about 3.6 mb and I think that the max is set to around 1.5 mb... help anyone?

Between Me and the River: A Memoirby Carrie Host
View All Available Formats & Editions
Carrie Host knows that the diagnosis of a life-threatening illness takes a split second to change your life.

Between Me and the River
Carrie Host knows that the diagnosis of a life-threatening illness takes a split second to change your life. When told at forty, with her youngest child just nine months old, that she had a rare form of cancer known as carcinoid tumor, Host felt as if she'd been hurled into a raging river, stripped of all forms of potential rescue. Between Me and the River is Host's candid and uplifting memoir of how she found the strength and fortitude to triumph over this disease, and craft a new and meaningful life. The voyage of this strong-minded, openhearted woman is told with uncompromising honesty and respect for the miracles that medicine and love can work.
Host's unquenchable sense of humor in the midst of suffering creates poignant moments of laughter through tears. Bracing, lyrical and deeply moving, Between Me and the River is a tribute to one life, and all lives, rerouted by illness.
Editorial Reviews
Host spent more than a year trying to figure out the source of pain that began during her third pregnancy, but no one in her Boulder, CO, medical community seemed on a track that made sense to her. Scans, X-rays, blood tests, and trips to Minnesota's famed Mayo Clinic finally brought it all into focus: cancer. Host's slow-growing yet rare and generally lethal carcinoid tumors were treated via a lengthy surgery. She describes her ordeal as being in a boat caught up in a rushing river, constantly being tossed about and pulled under. A writer by trade, Host continues her river metaphor throughout and as such brings her trial to readers' consciousness and recognition. With her youngest child now five, Host is still at the oar, still working vigilantly to stay afloat. A beautifully written memoir for all audiences. (Host will be featured in a panel of first-time authors at the 2009 American Library Association conference in Chicago.)

Read an Excerpt
November 5, 2003
Hardly any other word leaves us as numb or as frozen in time as cancer. That six-letter word, paired with the phrase "you have" is like being emotionally trampled by elephants. It's been a year and a half since those words were directed to me. Also, it's been a lifetime.
So this is the beginning of my journey with cancer. That single word took a split second to change my life and a lot longer to write in that last sentence, the writer in me too afraid to put the word cancer on paper, for fear that seeing it in my own handwriting might make the humming in my head even more real.
Oncologist is a captivating word that tumbles carelessly out of our mouths until we are using it in regard to our own situation. Then we finally meet the oncologist whose job it is to deliver the most frightening news and who, in so doing, instantly becomes the grim reaper. This doctor is the first person on the scene who we know we don't want to see again but to whom we are going to become intimately tied. This is the person you run from in your nightmare, the one who keeps showing up at every turn with a disturbingly calm demeanor.
Tumor board? Who coined the term tumor board, I wonder? But what othertitle couldbe assignedto the group of oncologists andradiolo-gists who meet to evaluate your medical case? They sort through all of your various scans, X-rays, blood work and tests, and then collectively decide the course of treatment that should be proposed to you, the patient.
They "stage" your cancer and then they write the script, the script in which you are billed as the main character. They hand it over to that guy you keep running from in the nightmare. He will show up at the head of the table in his conference room. This room has a ceiling that is too low and getting lower every minute. The thick medical reference books and journals are packed too tightly on the crammed bookshelves at one end. There are windows on both sides of the room, but they don't open. Half of them separate you from the hall of the clinic, and the other half allow you a treetop view. You notice all of this while you wait for him to say something. He taps the stack of paper like a deck of cards, making sure the edges are neat. This will be his only prop and will also serve as his silent defense against your certain denial.
He already knows how to deliver the lines. He's had a lot of practice. This makes you like him less. He's the kid in fifth grade who sits in front of you and has done all of his homework. Yet because he sits up so nice and straight, he protects you from the teacher's scanning eyes. Ironically, he will now protect you again.
He knows a lot more than you do about the condition of your body, and this is disturbing beyond words. Because he's spent so many years in medical school, and so many more actually being a doctor, he has learned to dish this up on one of those compartmentalized trays, keeping the parts separate while still putting it all on your plate.
He will begin to recite directly from your medical file. You will wish he would stop and say, "My mistake, this isn't you. You can go now," but he doesn't. He will turn a page and lift his chin slightly, slowly breathing in through his nose and looking up at you appraisingly. He is checking to see if your bags are packed for the trip he is about to send you on. You pretend to be looking in his eyes. Actually you are staring at the mountains in the distance, reflected in the excruciatingly clean lenses of his wire-rimmed glasses. Just like that, you have stepped onto the platform and are heading toward the train you are about to board. You will hear the ticking of your watch, even though it's digital.
A nurse wearing a happy-puppy shirt will walk by the other side of the glass window, her stethoscope draped around her neck, her clipboard in hand. She does not look your way, because she already knows what you are doing here. She's the person in that same nightmare to whom you keep shouting for help, but she can't hear you. She is on the other side of the glass, on her way to someone in more immediate need. She will see you later.
The oncologist continues to read the lines in front of him. " the octreotide scans lit up in these areas the bulkof the carcinoidis there are metastases to the liver tumor onthe left lung it has completely covered the omentum wall and the peritoneum " Wait! Stop! I can't breathe.
I consider myself a word person and there are already three words that I don't understand. Each probably has a whole textbook to define it. I keep looking out the hallway window for the nurse in the puppy shirt to save me. He stops reading. He is finished describing you in the medical terms that the tumor board has agreed upon. You realize that a description this big and complex took a group of doctors to write. You want to hit delete and go back to the old description of yourself, the one without the medical terms mixed in. You can't. He is waiting for you to say something. You can tell this because he has set down his script in a neat stack and his back has now come in contact with the rest of his chair. He has far too much compassion in his eyes. He is not going away. He waits. You are speechless.
He asks my husband and me if we have any questions. We have, but we only ask those with answers we think we can swallow without choking. "Which surgeon do you recommend?.How did this start? What is a low-fiber diet?" We leave.
Without exchanging a word, my husband and I take the elevator down three floors and walk out. I know that my legs are there, but I can't feel them. I move my body forward, down the eight steps to the sidewalk. My senses are smacked by the crisp November air. I want to take in a deep breath, but find I am only taking shallow sips. The familiar scent of the coming snow in the mountain air, full of pine, is suddenly too bold and full of life for me to bear.
My eyes well up at all the questions still running through my head that we didn't ask. "How long do I have? Will I have Thanksgiving in my sister's cabin, orwill Ibetoo sickto make the four-hour drive? Will I miss the baby's first birthday, December I7? Will I make it home for Christmas with the kids? Will I make it through the surgery?"
Having been told that I should have the surgery immediately is more than enough information on how fast this train is moving. We find we are holding hands, my mitten in the clasp of his glove, walking silently toward St. John's Church on Pine Street. For my problem, I figure that I probably need the big church but it's locked, so we naturally cross the courtyard to the chapel. I'm grateful to enter the dim light and for the wooden pew that holds the five tons of lead that have filled my body.
My gaze is resting on the stone floor, the colors from the stained-glass strewn unevenly across it. I let the tears come. I just sit there and cry. I'm crying in a way that I don't recognize. At forty, these are tears that are coming from somewhere I don't feel ready to know about. My husband cries right beside me. I've never heard such sadness emerge from him before. We hold on to each other as only two people who might be separated forever do.
You will hear the wind for the first time, as you never have before.
Hear it whipping around outside of the chapel. Hear its delicate whistle through the highest branches. You will hear those branches click and rattle softly. Through tear-rimmed eyes, you will notice its cold breath whispering in under the heavy wooden doors, stirring a dried and dead autumn leaf into a slow dance across the vestibule.
Time passes. How much, I'm not certain. I stand and walk to the candles in their rows. Some are liteach, I imagine, with a whispered prayer. The wooden matches tremble in their box under my shaking hand. I take one out and light three candles, one for each of my children.
The sound of my own fear, a noise which I have never heard before, arises from deep within, shaking my body with all the possibilities of loss. The sound of a mother sobbing at the threat of being taken from her children, the most unbearable sound in the world, reduces me to stone.
Thank you for this chapel where I can fall apart. Help me find my way through this maze. Please don't take me from my children. They need me. I want to see my baby grow up. I'm not ready to let go of his little hand. Help me, please, I'm so afraid. I'm so heartbroken.
This might be the first time you find yourself praying. You may wonder to whom you are praying, or you might already know. Either way, you might become more familiar with this part of yourself as the train departs. You will mentally wave goodbye to loved ones as it slowly chugs out of the station. The people you love can't come with you. You will have to ride this train by yourself. You know this, and you are so scared that you can feel every nerve standing at attention. You are acutely aware that this is your train.
Then you turn to take your seat on that train and you are relieved to find that there are others, lots of others who are already here. Their knowing glances tell you that you'll have company for the ride. This may be the single most important thing to know during your journey. You may be scared, but you are not alone.* * *
Cancer is like that. At first, you can't believe thatyou are in the waiting room of a cancer center. It's not like the waiting room anywhere else, because all of these people are in some way affected by cancer. You don't want to be one of these people. You don't want to believe this. It's the person next to you in that waiting room, looking like he is doing well, who helps you see thefirstpiece of tangible evidence that there are people who survive this. One moment you are spiraling down, sure that you are utterly alone, and then circumstances reveal that you are not. This is where hope comes and puts an arm around you.
October 8,2003
Once on the train, you might reflect on how you first arrived at the station. Each of us approaches the station in a different way. This is how I showed up. It is the quintessential October day in Boulder, Colorado: a dazzling blue sky, autumn at the peak of her glory, a nip in the air. Suddenly, during lunch with my friend Kirsten, the pain that had launched me into the emergency room in agony exactly one year before comes creeping back into my stomach. I'm setting my fork down after the first bite. I know this pain. I know right where it started and where it will end up.
My friend is multitasking. She is catching me up on her recent trip to New York to find a showroom for her jewelry line, filling me in on her latest love interest, and taking a few calls on her cell phone. She looks effervescent compared to me.
I observe her animated energy in amazement, thinking that I don't know how she keeps up with herself. I'm also thinking this used to be me before I was pregnant with my third child: glowing, energetic, in shape, and able to whip any situation under control with one hand tied behind my back.
"I feel sick to my stomach," I'm saying. I know something is wrong. As soon as the pain begins to radiate around to my back, I push my plate across the table to join her side salad, positive that I cannot eat. Too busy to answer me, she answers her cell phone and begins to sample the delicious dish in front of her. I place an ear on her phone call, as she is motioning me to do, between a sip of her wine and a bite of my entree, a mischievous look in her eyes. I strain to focus on the distant voice coming over the line. Instead, I hear the loud one in my head, which is shouting, "This isn't about your lunch, and you are in trouble." She's finished the call and picking up where we left off.
"I wouldn't worry about it. We all hold our tension there." I hear her saying in the distance, her delayed reaction to the pain in my stomach. I want her to be right, but I know that this is different. With my seven-mile-stare straight over her shoulder, looking blankly at Walnut Street, I absently watch her take three more calls. I watch her gracefully polish off my asparagus omelet with hollan-daise as she spins a business deal with the person on the line. Since I am mentally answering the pain that is besieging me, I am actually grateful for her distraction. I am no longer present. We wrap up and pay the tab.
Driving up Broadway, I head home, popping Tums, hoping the pain will go away as suddenly as it appeared.
October 9, 2003
Just about eighteen hours later, at 5:30 a.m., this mysterious pain does just that: it vanishes without a trace. My husband and I are both delighted and relieved that I am suddenly fine after a long night. He leaves at 6:30 a.m. for work and ten minutes later I drive the kids down the road to meet the school bus at 6:45 a.m. A surprise awaits me back at home. No sooner do I step into the front hall than the pain which had totally vanished hits my abdomen like a prize-fighter. It knocks me to my knees, my ten-month-old baby still in my arms. I gently lay him down on the rug beneath us, turning my face away so as not to scare him with my contorted expression. I try to breathe.
I hear the phone ring once and stop. It's my neighbor, Sara, giving me the "one ring" to let me know she will be leaving for a run in five minutes with her two dogs if I want to join her; it's our usual morning routine. I consider trying to crawl to the kitchen to return her call and ask her for a ride to the hospital. Instead, I am immobilized by pain that is off the charts.

Carrie Host shares her painful experience of living with cancer in her book, "Between Me and the River". Since my own mother is dealing with her second bout of cancer, I can truly relate with what Ms. Host has written. Her honest and heartrending story is an inspiration and I had to put the book down quite a few times because I could not read because of my tears. I recommend this book whole-heartedly.
To describe this book as a cancer memoir sells it short. It's beautiful literature, engaging philosophy, practical advice, and a character-driven story all in one. It may change your life. It will stay with you. Riveting. Touching. A memorable book you won't be able to put down.

I have some perl script which executes some commands on remote gerrit server via SSH. It's running on a Debian lenny virtual machin. During several monthes it was executed in the following way:
./script.pl &>~/script.log &
and everything was working well. However from the last friday this script and its child processes ("sh -c ssh ...." and "ssh ...") hangs at some moment exactly during remote command execution. "ps x" shows status T (sTopped) for all of them. Sending SIGCONT dosen't really helps. They recive SIGSTOP immediatelly after it.
I can't see such wired behaviour when runing this script interactivelly (now it works in screen without any problems).
I have tried to use strace to investigate what happens but I can't catch this bug since this scripts works well when started interactively. I don't know who can send SIGSTOP and I don't know which process exactly recives this signal first. Can I find out this information somehow? How can such issue be investigated?
P.S. My scope of responsibility is limited to monitor and restart (if needed) this script. I don't know which changes were made on this server or on remote gerrit server by responsible people.

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) - One of Puerto Rico's top painters
and muralists has died.
Augusto Marin was 89.
Marin's daughter Ivelisse Marin said the artist died Thursday at a hospital in the capital, San Juan.
She said the cause was a lung infection and that he had been hospitalized since Sunday.
Marin had a long artistic career but was best known for large paintings and murals that blended Caribbean and religious elements.
His work has been exhibited around the world and has been collected
by a number of museums.
The governor of Puerto Rico ordered flags on the island to be lowered to half-staff for three days to mark his death.

Ah, another new album from Rawkus records. This is the label that was solely responsible for turning many fans on to quality hip hop in the late nineties. Their first two Soundbombing compilations were like the indie hip-hop Old and New Testament; providing a who's who of the top 'underground' talent New York had to offer. A lot has changed since then, and long gone are the days of L-Fudge and Reflection Eternal singles flying off the shelves at your local vinyl spot. And until the new Blue Scholars full length came along, many were ready to nail the Rawkus coffin shut, deeming its "magnificent return" nothing more than a big fat flop. But oh no, these two dudes from Seattle had to come along and drop some serious heat, and now this critic has to tell you why this album is dope, instead of ragging on Rawkus for another few hundred words.
First of all, if you are a first generation Rawkus fan, you need to throw your preconceived notions of the 'Rawkus' sound to the wind, because 8 years after their original collapse, things were bound to change. Actually, this album sounds more Rhymesayers than Rawkus, but enough of the label semantics? Blue Scholars is Geologic on the mic and Sabzi on the boards. The formula is pretty much the same for each song: midtempo new school boom bap with three verses of laid back, conscious rhymes. No guest spots or skits here, just two men out to show and prove. And that's exactly what they do.
In terms of production, there isn't one song where Sabzi half steps. He runs the gamut of instrumentation, chopping strings, keys and horns with flawless precision. His talents result in an album consistently laced with melodic headnodders, and Sabzi never goes the Mannie Fresh route trying to outshine his vocalist. Thankfully Geologic is up to the challenge, delivering verse after verse of social commentaries that flaunt his lyrical prowess on the mic. He is one of the most content-focused emcees I have heard in years, never relying on lowbrow punchlines or grandiose hooks to win the respect of fans. His verse content deals with a variety of topics, from the fresh take on an anti-war song on "Back Home", to the evocative and heart-wrenching tale of an immigrant in the U.S. on "The Distance".
The only downside lyrically is that Geologic's cadence doesn't really vary throughout the album, but his content is so relevant and poignant it often doesn't matter. Bayani is a headphone masterpiece that won't be finding its way onto the dance floor, but it's clear that wasn't their intent. The ultra punchy "North by Northwest" would probably work as the best single cut to check out, if you are curious about Blue Scholars. It's horn stabs and chopped vocal samples will provoke instead simply get the head nodding, and it doesn't carry the somber undertones found on the majority of the tracks on this album. On Bayani, Blue Scholars prove that perhaps there is a bright future ahead for Rawkus records, as long as they are the ones carrying the torch.

With other Pussyman titles.
David "Pussyman" Christopher is out to make "the best international butt movie ever." The usual tongue-in-cheek casting shenanigans ensue, with Asian babe Kianna taking charge of the show and calling in other porners to assist. The girls do lots of posing at a location identified as "Pussyman's summer hideaway" and follow up the tease with fucking, sucking and anal sex. A threeway with Flick Shagwell, Mark Wood and Rick Masters features brief d.p. footage; they splatter her tits nicely in the denouement. Other highlights: Monica Sweetheart stripping out of a black bikini to service Steve Drake; Miko Lee and Steven St. Croix pairing off for some outdoor fun; and a lesbian encounter between Kianna and Sana Fey which evolves into a threeway as Pussyman himself joins the action.

Released: Dec 01st, 2001
Running Time: 85
Director: Kris Kramski
Company: Hustler Video
Cast: Sharon Wild, Lola (I), Jason McCain, Joey Ray, Belladonna, Claudia Atkins, Monica Mayhem, Mickey G.
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: All-Sex
Stack it in the back of the other Hustler Videos. There are better representatives of the Hustler name than this one.
Hustler Video took some top quality porn stars, Monica Mayhem and Belladonna to name a few, and threw them into this chaotic, confusing piece of videotape. Filmed on location in South Beach Miami, Florida, Hustler took a camera crew to the annual Winter Music Conference and simply shot some sex scenes. Crowds and darkness really make it difficult for the porn stars to do their job, and nobody seems to care. The editing in this video is disgraceful, and the lighting apparently is no concern to them. Nothing sexy about anything here, unless you like watching orgies happen in public and in the dark.
Five sex scenes in total, and one of them takes place during the day. Two orgies are done at night; one in a large, darkened, crowded club, and the other on a helicopter launch pad. Both scenes are shot and edited so it's hard to figure out what's happening, and the dim lighting doesn't help. The girls in this video are hot and familiar to all porn hounds, especially Monica Mayhem, who is the only one to create any kind of a spark here. She is in two scenes and really makes them memorable as she always does. Mayhem fucks Joey Ray, one-on-one in a cramped bathroom. The tight surroundings looked tough to pull off for the actors, but the sex is hot, and Monica comes out of this video more of a porn star than ever before. The title on this video is extremely deceiving, which is something I must point out. Promising to have astounding electronica set to sex, the soundtrack is nothing more than run of the mill, trance electronica. The music is so repetitive that it will put anyone to sleep while the gorgeous girls fuck in the dark.

[a]For the director of music. According to gittith.Title: Probably a musical term Of the Sons of Korah. A�psalm.
How lovely is your dwelling place,
Lord Almighty!
My soul yearns, even faints,
for the courts of the Lord;
my heart and my flesh cry out
for the living God.
Even the sparrow has found a home,
and the swallow a nest for herself,
where she may have her young�
a place near your altar,
Lord Almighty, my King and my God.
Blessed are those who dwell in your house;
they are ever praising you.[b]
Blessed are those whose strength is in you,
whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.
As they pass through the Valley of Baka,
they make it a place of springs;
the autumn rains also cover it with pools.[c]
They go from strength to strength,
till each appears before God in Zion.
Hear my prayer, Lord God Almighty;
listen to me, God of Jacob.
Look on our shield,[d] O�God;
look with favor on your anointed one.
Better is one day in your courts
than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
For the Lord God is a sun and shield;
the Lord bestows favor and honor;
no good thing does he withhold
from those whose walk is blameless.
Lord Almighty,
blessed is the one who trusts in you.

Women's Soccer Names Carlos Pinhancos Assistant Coach
Pinhancos has over 10 years of coaching experience with both men's and women's teams.
Jim McGirr enters his ninth season as head coach of the Providence College women's soccer team. McGirr is looking to improve upon last year's 8-9-1 record and has high hopes for his squad this season, that includes eight incoming freshman.
The Friars were three seconds away from earning a berth to the BIG EAST Conference Tournament for the second consecutive season. Providence fell to Connecticut in double overtime, 3-2, on DATE where a tie would have landed the Friars a spot in the tournament. McGirr led the Friars to the BIG EAST Conference Tournament in the 2011 season for the first time since 1994. Providence defeated Rutgers in the First Round before falling to Louisville.
"Jim McGirr is the ideal coach to rebuild our program in the highly competitive BIG EAST," Providence College Athletic Director Bob Driscoll said upon McGirr's hiring. "He has coached at many different levels and he has experience recruiting in the BIG EAST. We are excited about the passion and commitment that he will bring to our women's soccer program."
In his eight years at Providence, McGirr has rebuilt the program with a new recruiting style and intensity along the sidelines. This season, the Friars return 12 letter winners and welcome 12 newcomers.
Prior to coaching at Providence, McGirr spent two seasons as an assistant at Villanova University. He helped the Wildcats advance to the NCAA Tournament in 2003 and 2004 and achieve national rankings during those seasons. The 2003 Villanova squad won the BIG EAST title and advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16. He was in charge of many aspects of Villanova's program, including scouting, video editing, recruiting, training and off-season development. McGirr is known for his championship level experience and continues to use it along the Friar sidelines.
Prior to coaching at Villanova, McGirr spent one season as an assistant coach at Loyola College where his team advanced to the 2002 NCAA Tournament. He also served as a volunteer coach for Rutgers in 2001, helping guide the Scarlet Knights to the Sweet 16. In 2000, he served as an assistant coach at Lafayette College with the men's program that captured the Patriot League regular- season title.
McGirr has extensive experience coaching at the club level as well. From 1997-2002, he was a head coach for the New Jersey Olympic Development Program. Additionally, he was the coach for Wyckoff Torpedos Under-19 Girls Club Team (1998-2001), head coach at the Player Development Academy for the Under-17 boys team (2000-02) and technical director/assistant coach at the Baltimore Bays Under-14 Girls Club Team (2002-03). Most recently, he served as the director for coaching for the FC Delco Girls Soccer Club, a position he held through 2003.
He started his coaching career as the head coach of the boys team at Bergen Catholic High School in Oradell, N.J. He coached Bergen Catholic from 1995-99 and led the team to the 1999 New Jersey Parochial "A" State title. A 1992 graduate of Rider University, McGirr played three varsity seasons for the Broncs.

Brazilian sides Atletico PR and relegated Vasco da Gama face record fines and stadium closures after their fans were caught up in violence Sunday.
The shocking scenes of fans kicking and punching each other on the terraces in the southern city of Joinville has provoked a storm -- not least as it harms Brazil's image six months before it hosts the World Cup.
Brazil's Supreme Tribunal for Sporting Justice (STJD), part of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), on Tuesday confirmed it was assessing what punishment should be dished out after violence which Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff said the country would not tolerate.
"Given the seriousness of this case we must make a judgement now as everyone wants a response -- we shall not leave it til 2014," said STJD chairman Flavio Zveiter, adding the Tribunal would likely hold an extraordinary session on the case.
Additional controversy erupted after it emerged police were only on duty outside with private security drafted inside, a decision which had police and state government firing accusations and counter-accusations at each other Tuesday.
The STJD could hand both clubs as much as a 20-game stadium ban and a fine in the region of $50,000 dollars.
Match referee Ricardo Ribeiro faces a four-month suspension if he is found to have officiated a match "without adequate security," Zveiter told Lance sports daily.
Atletico were playing in Joinville, some 150 km (90 miles) south of their Curitiba home -- the latter is scheduled to host World Cup action in June -- after previous disorder.
Sunday's match was suspended for more than an hour after fans fought running battles before security forces belatedly intervened. Four fans were injured.
STJD prosecutor Paulo Schmitt on Tuesday ruled out any possibility of accepting a Vasco request to have the match replayed on the grounds it was stopped for more than an hour.
Brazilian federation rules provide for a match being annulled following a stoppage of more than one hour but Schmitt ruled that out as a ploy.
Atletico chairman Mario Celso Petraglia went further, telling the club's radio station that Vasco fans "sought in premeditated fashion to cause trouble so that the game would be called off - a last-ditch hope of avoiding going down to the second division."
Vasco's defeat sent them down alongside outgoing champions Fluminense, on a doubly black day for Brazilian football.
After Sunday's violence, FIFA insisted a comprehensive security plan will be in place for the World Cup at 12 venues to ensure the safety of all concerned and Andrei Rodrigues, a Brazilian justice ministry official dealing with security during major events, said that what happened in Joinville "will not happen again during the World Cup."
He added that "an integrated security scheme" would be backed by 200 cameras monitoring venues, with "clear intervention plans" to nip potential trouble in the bud.

Indexing is not an inherently straightforward and intuitive concept. There's plenty of material out there that suggests where you might want to apply database indexes, but the Django documentation doesn't suggest *anything*. Database access optimization suggests that it is a number one priority, and that you should use the information you have gleaned from profiling to decide what to index, but provides no methodology for applying that information. It's left to the reader's imagination to decide if they should add indexes to fields they read a lot or fields they change a lot or fields they do lookups by a lot or fields that have fish puns in their names.
I'd make some suggestions, but I am not qualified enough to write anything I'd be at all confident in.

As noted on the PR, I think we can probably do a bit better than just a link to Wikipedia's entry on database indexes. I wouldn't want to go into too much detail since indexing is a complex topic and is often database dependent, but some idea of where to start looking would be helpful.
comment:6 Changed 2 years ago by alextreme
I've expanded upon the previous pull request to also document a rule-of-thumb (use indexes to speed up lookups). I have added your caveats on the topic of indexes, but this should be enough to point readers in the right direction.

In a literature-based study, 29 non-indigenous species present in northeastern European waters were assessed for their potential for introduction and establishment in Finnish inland lakes. Their physiological and ecological demands were compared to abiotic and biotic lake conditions. The availability of adequate vectors was surveyed from shipping statistics for the Saimaa Canal, which connects the Finnish Lake District to the Baltic Sea. There exists a high probability for the introduction of six non-indigenous invertebrate species, i.e., Anguillicola crassus, Potamothrix heuscheri, Potamothrix vejdovskyi, Hemimysis anomala, Cercopagis pengoi and Gmelinoides fasciatus, with the Gulf of Finland as the main donor area. Barriers against new species introductions, which maintain the biological integrity of Finnish inland lakes, include low water temperature, northern isolated location, and low concentration of nutrients and major ions.

|"The 3 Geeks: Slab Madness" #1 on sale in January
In 1997, Rich Koslowskiâs âHow to Pick Up Girls if Youâre a Comic Book Geekâ introduced to world to Keith Pankowski, Allen George and Jim Tamphear, a trio of geeks that would go on to star in the critically acclaimed â3 Geeksâ series, followed by âGeeksville.â This January, Koslowski invites fans to geek out once more with â3 Geeks: Slab Madness,â and CBR News caught up with the writer to get the details.
âKeith, Jim and Allen take everything to the Nth degree when it comes to their hobby, so they're maybe a little more extreme than your average, everyday collector,â Koslowski told CBR. âBut anyone who does collect or has collected will say to themselves, âOh, yeah, I know these guys!â or âI am this guy!ââ
A few of the trioâs adventures in fandom include going to conventions; self-publishing their own mini-comic; attempting to âpick upâ girls utilizing their expansive knowledge of comics; participating in comic book movie marathons; tracking down a letter writer that raised their ire; experiencing a birthday disaster when Allen is unable to lift the hammer Jim made for him; being forced to get jobs to support their âhabitâ; the Y2K scare; a disastrous pool party where Jim's uncle wears a very rare Wonderful Woman trunks into the pool; âand so on and so on,â Koslowski said.
The three geeksâ latest adventure casts them neck-deep in the world of comic book grading. âAllen (who has the biggest, most pristine collection!) is so delighted with all his CGC graded comics that he surrounds himself with them so he can bask in their glory,â Koslowski explained. âEventually, he builds an igloo type of shell with all his slabbed books so he can better view them and enjoy them. And when he puts the last slabbed book in the last space something magical happens! Enlightenment! Allen finds himself all-knowing when it comes to grading comics.â
|Pages from "The 3 Geeks: Slab Madness" #1
This triggers the arrival of the âCee Gee Cee,â who come bearing prophecies, in search of the âchosen one.â âJim and Keith find themselves going head-to-head with these mysterious cultists to free Allen from the cocoon and to save Allen's very soul!â Koslowski said. âBesides, how the heck's Allen going to go to bathroom in that thing?â
The writer admitted he is not as obsessed with keeping his comics in mint condition as his 3 Geeks characters are. âWith some of my nicer Silver Age stuff I am, and some series I really like I do take extra special care with bagging and boarding and the occasional âslabbing,â Koslowski confessed. âBut for the most part I read them, they pile up next to the bed getting little dings and dents, and then I finally, someday, get around to sorting them and boxing them.â
The idea for âSlab Madnessâ has been germinating for years, but a host of other obligations kept Koslowski from writing it until now. âFinally, my good pals, Steve Borock over at the CGC, Chuck Rozanski of Mile High Comics and Marc Nathan of Baltimore Comic-Con nudged me a bit with their support to finally get it off the ground,â he revealed.
Perhaps fittingly, tracking down back issues of classic â3 Geeksâ adventures is no easy task. A handful of the original issues can still be purchased at www.RichKoslowski.com. There are also four trade paperbacks collecting the first eleven issues of â3 Geeksâ and âGeeksville,â but Rich Koslowski is letting those go out of print in anticipation of a â3 Geeksâ omnibus. âI'm toying with coloring all the back issues for the Omnibus as well,â Koslowski said. âI'm hoping to have this ready for next summer if all goes as planned.â
|Pages from "The 3 Geeks: Slab Madness" #1
Last year, independent filmmaker Heath McKnight became attached to produce a film adaptation of the â3 Geeks,â but the filmmakerâs own busy slate has put the film on the back burner. âIt's pretty frustrating, but what can you do?â Koslowski remarked. âI've pretty much adopted a, âIf it happens, it happensâ approach as, for the most part, it's out of my hands. I do everything I can to expedite it but there's really only so much a creator can do.â
Koslowski does expect he will have something more concrete to report about the film adaptation within the next couple of months.
â3 Geeksâ is not the only project on Koslowskiâs horizon. âI'm just putting the final touches on a new graphic novel I illustrated (written by newcomer, J.D. Arnold) that will be published by Top Shelf Productions and released in Spring/Summer of 2009,â he said. âIt's called âBB Wolf & The 3 L.P.sâ and it's a retelling of the classic Three Little Pigs story. A much, much, much darker retelling, though, let me tell you. It takes place in the depression era deep south and the Big Bad Wolf is a poor blues playing farmer with a wife and a few cubs, and the Little pigs are greedy landowners. What goes down ain't so pretty! The story is amazing and the art's probably the best thing I've done to date. I couldn't be any prouder.â
On top of that, Koslowski has quite a few other pitches making the rounds. âI do have about two-to-three other solid books planned that I'll just go forward with and either end up self-publishing or finding another good pub for them,â he said. âI just go where the wind (or whim) takes me these days.â

Playhouse brings newest production to the stage
Published: Friday, April 23, 2010 at 3:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, April 20, 2010 at 4:16 p.m.
The Bayou Playhouse is no stranger to one-man shows, and it's newest production has no reason to change a winning formula.
Jamie Wax is set to take the stage for the one-man show, "Going to Jackson," scheduled from April 23 through May 2 at the central Lafourche theater, 101 Main St., Lockport.
Wax also wrote the multicharacter comedy based on an asylum in Louisiana.
"This is a really great one-man show, but it entails five different characters," said Perry Martin, the production's director. "With the premise of finding a Louisiana mental-health spokesperson, the opportunity for comedy prevails. What makes it even better is Jamie is such a great performer. He started out working comedy clubs as a stand-up comedian when he was actually very young. ... We are excited and very happy to have Jamie come perform with us. He has the ability to morph into almost any age, gender or peculiarity of society. It all comes out as sort of a stand-up routine with music, but Jamie pulls it all off masterfully. As he would say, 'I'm not crazy; I just play them on stage.' "
The play has been performed in many theaters throughout the country.
"I have been doing this play for a long time," Wax said. "This is our 20th anniversary. We have taken the play all over the country, but I have found no place better than Louisiana to perform the play. I am very excited to be back in this area."
In the past, Wax has performed around Thibodaux.
"The people (local residents) were just tremendous," he said. "They really appreciated the play. It is great to be back at the Bayou Playhouse and working with Perry because it is natural in a state that is so well-known for its history and storytelling."
The play is based on real people Wax has met at the East Louisiana State Hospital, a mental facility near Jackson.
"I am sort of a magnet for attracting unusual people," he said. "That is the great part about coming from the state of Louisiana. You don't have to make things up to get good comedy. It is all here already."
Wax said, while the storyline is a bit unpredictable, he feels local audiences will appreciate the play.
"People are surprised when they come to the play," he said. "It is a real play with a real story, but it runs like a stand-up comedy act."
Wax has 22 years of experience as a stand-up comedian, stage and film actor and a playwright with seven plays and two PBS specials on his résumé. Wax has played these wacky characters to sold-out audiences in Louisiana and across the country for 20 years.
Bayou Playhouse organizers said the play is a constantly evolving show.
"Jamie Wax is a performer not to be missed in a laugh-out-loud performance on the bayou," said Karissa Kary, the playhouse's production manager director. "We are thrilled to be able to bring Jamie to the playhouse."
Martin said the playhouse continues to present shows about Louisiana.
"Not only are we doing stories about our state," he said, "during this season we are excited to be able to bring in nationally known names like Jamie to our performances. And it is great, too, because we also mix in some very good local talent."
Performances are scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 2:30 p.m. Sundays. Tickets cost $23 for adults and $21.50 for seniors and students. Tickets for opening night costs $30.
For ticket information, call 1-888-99-BAYOU or visit www.bayouplayhouse.org.

Jay is a great place to ski., it has a Euro feeling to it., Lots of Canadians are sking there, It's only 1 hr 45 min. drive from Montreal & 4 hrs from Ottawa. I heard some pretty sad things about how the US border guards are making it hard for Canadians to enjoy Vermont & Jay Peak., a family was almost turned back as they had 2 undeclared clemintines in their van... Come on.. let's get real., the border guards should maybe look outside their doors., have a look around... It's very Backwoods Customs crossings... the Canadians are bringing $$ to Jay's doorstep & helping out the economy of Vermont., so go easy othewise they will turn the other way to Tremblant., by the way., Tremblant has much more snow than Jay... there was lots of rocks on the runs today., Jay should either close the run or cover the rocks up... I skied Vermonter., & it was a mess on my base.... the day was sunny & very cold., lots of people were out but the lines were non existant., 10 to 15 minute wait to load the tram., the tram was running at Half speed for some reason... real slow.. slow .. fall asleep slow... let's get it moving.... i was told by a lifty that it was running at Half speed !!1 The new Hotel Jay looks gigantic compared to the old Hotel Jay., it has a huge Waterpark attached., & under a glass ceiling dome., Lots of new things going on a Jay Peak., Big Bucks are being spent., for you to have a great time., skiing, golfing, hiking & water parking... boarding or whatever the kids do?? Go To Jay Peak., have fun, it's a great Resort in Northern Vermont., only a few miles south of the Canadian Border !!

Breaking the Rules
As a veteran kitchen designer, Susan was able to break a few of the usual rules. She jettisoned Rule No. 1—when you need more storage, add more boxes—by nixing upper cabinets in favor of open shelves. As for Rule No. 2—put the sink under a window for the dishwasher's sake—she figured no one looks up while loading the machine, so why not give the view and a little natural light to the family's regular guest chef, Art's mother, Julia. To make the look her own, Susan opted for an innovative mix of styles and materials. Traditional painted base cabinets and a solid-surface farmhouse sink keep the kitchen grounded in its past, while a sleek island topped with slate, along with stainless-steel appliances and countertops, help give this working kitchen a loftlike feel. "Not everyone has the right setup for a great-room kitchen," Susan says, "but you can always make the most of the space you've got."

Hawaii Health Connector
Who Is the Marketplace for?
The Hawaii Health Connector health insurance Marketplace is where eligible residents can shop for and buy insurance in person, online, or by phone. In Hawaii, the Marketplace is run by the state government. The Marketplace, also called an Exchange, is mainly for people who:
- Don't have insurance
- Aren't insured by their employer
- Don't have Medicare
- Aren't included in their spouse's employer insurance
- Have pre-existing conditions and may have had trouble getting insurance before
- Have private insurance but want to look at other options
- Own a small business
The Affordable Care Act required most Americans to sign up for health insurance in 2014 or pay a fine when you file your income taxes. Generally, you don't need to buy insurance through the Marketplace if you are covered by Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, or an employer-sponsored plan.
When You Can Enroll: The next open enrollment period is Nov.1, 2015, to Jan. 31, 2016. Enroll online at ConnectHawaii.com or call 877-628-5076, from 8 a.m.-8 p.m. Mon-Fri., or download an application at HawaiiHealthConnector.com. Navigators or insurance brokers can also help you enroll.
If you have a life-changing event -- such as the birth of a child, losing your job, or moving to a new state -- you don't have to wait for the next enrollment period. You can sign up or change coverage within 60 days of the event. You can also sign up for Medicaid at any time, if you are eligible.
Plans and Costs
Getting Started: You'll need to provide information about you and your family members when you apply. Here's a checklist of what you'll need:
- Social Security number (or document number if you are a legal immigrant)
- W-2 forms: Wage and tax statements or pay stubs for all employed members of the household. For people who are self-employed or do not have a regular salary, include an estimate of household income.
- Policy numbers of health insurance plans covering any members of the household
- Immigration/citizenship status
- Tobacco use

I loved this! Sweet, refreshing - high in calories, but otherwise healthy. It was lovely. I made this for my friend who just had her wisdom teeth pulled. She said it was a pleasant change from juice all the time. Thanks for this one.
This recipe is too sweet for avocados. I was expecting a savory smoothie. I did not like it.
This tasted really good. I'm not much of a cook (just recently smoked my blender). :) I've been testing out the new one and was glad to stumble across this recipe. It seemed like it would be too heavey/thick for me, so I substituted using skim milk and half&half cream. Used regular sugar and halved all ingredients since I used a small avocado. It was still a little too thick for my taste and I wanted it cold so I added 4 large ice cubes. Came out green cold and frothy. Excellent recipe!

I've tried your recipe, with variations here and there, for the last half-dozen batches. I've gotten mixed reviews; friends usually like it, my wife… menza-menz. However, when it comes to the pickles, I dice-up Mrs. Fanning's Bread & Butter Pickles; and use the juice as well. That seems to be a hit. Mrs. Fanning's has a very distinctive flavor, like no other. My wife has been making her potato salad with Mrs. Fanning's pickles and juice for decades. It's always been a real hit.
God bless.

The recipe posted is one way I make my macaroni salad. I have a tendency to use different things every time I make it. I have found that if I save my pasta water from cooking the pasta, the water if already salted. If I am not serving it right away I add up to a 1/2 cup of the water when I mix it store in the refrigerator. The dressing will be thin but the pasta will continue to absorb the liquid. If I need more moisture later I will add more of the pasta water. I don't have to keep adding mayo or the liquid from the pickles to change the flavor and my salads are never like cake or lump. You can cut back on using more salt to flavor also. Experiment for what you like or how much additional liquid you can use. Many times I drizzle a very small amount of salad oil over the pasta and toss well, keeps it all nicely seperated and from absorbing so much of the liquids. Again experiment to your liking.
