1a.Objectives (from AD-416)
To produce a phylogenetic framework for the bee family Megachilidae, a generic/subgeneric framework for the tribe Anthidiini (carder and resin bees), revise the largest genera of this tribe, and develop a web-based digital library of the results. Revisions of important pollinators in the family Megachilidae adn their cleptoparasites will be produced. Web-based identification guides for the Anthidiini will be produced to aid pollination research.
1b.Approach (from AD-416)
A combined molecular and morphological analysis of relationships across the family Megachilidae and within the tribe Anthidiini will be used to develop well supported phylogenies. Revisionary studies at the species level will utilize standard systematic methodologies. Web-based keys will be generated using existing software (e.g. Lucid, DiscoverLife) that are well illustrated using close-up images generated with imaging software.

Florida health officials are confirming a fourth suspected case of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome in the state. The latest suspected patient is a 53-year-old woman from Miami-Dade County.
Earlier this week, health officials confirmed two previous patients in Miami-Dade and one in Alachua County are suspected of having the virus. The state health team is committed to staying on top of the emerging threat.
The majority of people believed to have the potentially deadly virus known as SARS are in Asia, so far all of the Florida patients with symptoms recently returned from visiting the far east.
State epidemiologist Dr. Steve Wiersma says none of the 100 cases in the U.S. originated in this country and there is no reason to panic.
"Our phone is ringing off the hook. We're getting a lot of calls as well as all 67 county health departments. We're following those up. Despite all those phone calls and all those possible SARS cases, we have only four that meet that suspect case definition at this time," said Dr. Wiersma.
The governor says he's confident the state health department is on top of the SARS crisis. But he has some real concerns if it gets any worse
"This is a significantly serious health issue that could imperil our economy. It is, as I understand it, there is not a cure as of yet," said Gov. Bush.
The head of the state health department shares the governors concerns because the illness is so new.
For now, he mission is public education and keeping suspected patients isolated. So far none of Florida's SARS cases are believed to be life threatening, and only one patient is hospitalized.
The three suspected patients who are not hospitalized have voluntarily isolated themselves at their homes. The state has the ability to quarantine suspected patients, but has not felt the need to do so.

- It's possible to configure the mouse for to do the right button like enter after command active....(similar to Autocad)
- Why do not can to input data in command line always (when there is a command active, I need to get the focus in command line)

SAN FRANCISCO -- Bruce Bochy shook up and scrambled things for his teetering team on Saturday, but not on purpose.
Hey, maybe by committing a major blunder on national TV, Bochy accidentally knocked everything back into its proper place.
Bochy had by far his most embarrassing moment as a Giant ... and his team beat the Dodgers, anyway, 4-2 at AT&T Park.
Out-of-order karma, baby.
Here's what happened: In a "perfect storm" of miscommunication, as Bochy termed it, the Giants players believed the batting order was one way, when in fact Bochy's official order was another.
Buster Posey batted third in the first inning when he was supposed to bat fourth, so his RBI double scoring Gregor Blanco was illegal once Dodgers manager Don Mattingly protested.
The run came off the board. Pablo Sandoval (who was supposed to bat third) was ruled out and Posey was up again (properly batting fourth)--and promptly ended the inning with a fly out.
"I just at that point said, "What else? What else?'" Bochy said after the game.
It felt like an emotional rock bottom -- after all the losing the last few weeks, now the Giants coaching staff can't get the order right?
Two World Series titles in the last three years, now in last place, and then ... this?
"At that point, you're just hoping you win the game," Bochy said. "I mean, you want this to not play a part in the game because we had a big hit.
"It shouldn't happen -- no question. But it was a perfect storm for something like that to happen."
Bochy said he was wondering why Posey was going up to hit in the third spot, but just assumed he wrote it down wrong himself.
"I looked up there and I thought I was losing it," Bochy said. "I wanted to flip-flop those guys."
Bochy, of course, is the manager who famously caught Mattingly messing up in 2010 (when Mattingly was filling in as Dodgers manager for Joe Torre), so the symbolism was not hard to miss.
And this was a Giants team that came into this game in a horrendous swoon, and just got clobbered by the Dodgers to open this home stand on Friday.
"Seems like when things are going wrong, they all come together," second baseman Marco Scutaro said. "Won't give you a break. Very happy we ended up winning the game and we didn't need that run."
Bochy had spent most of Saturday morning finalizing the N.L. All-Star picks, then wrote out his lineup card switching Posey to fourth (he batted third Friday) and Sandoval to third.
Problem: The wrong information was programmed into the Giants' iPad, which feeds a new electronic board in the clubhouse, which is the lineup given to the media and the scoreboard.
The dugout lineup was correct--but nobody looked at it.
"I looked at the lineup in (the clubhouse) and I was batting third and I looked on the scoreboard and I was batting third," Posey said. "So somewhere something got crossed up. And hopefully it's not something that happens again."
Was he frustrated he lost an RBI double that would've put the Giants ahead?
"Yeah," Posey said bluntly.
Later, he said: "Thank goodness we won."
The Giants won because they scored three runs in the second inning--a huge emotional turnaround when things could've kept sagging and AT&T could've turned silent.
The Giants also won because Madison Bumgarner pitched beautifully, retiring the first 14 Dodgers in order and striking out sensation Yasiel Puig all three times he came up.
So it's a reach to say the Giants were galvanized by the lineup goof-up, but you can also say that getting past it gave them a tangible lift.
Almost everything about the 2013 Giants has felt disjointed, mis-aligned, and yes, out of order. Going into Saturday, the Giants had lost 10 of their last 11 games.
Beating the Dodgers after the first-inning shock, sort of made the Giants feel like themselves again.
Their 2010 and 2012 selves, that is.
"I would've felt horrible for the club if that would've played a part in us not winning the ballgame," Bochy said. "It does soften the blow of an error that shouldn't have happened."
Guarantee: The Giants will get the batting order correct on Sunday and on every other day of this season, and the next season, and for every other season Bochy is in charge.
Saturday was an accidental cattle prod. It can't ever happen again, but by getting past it for one game, it showed that the Giants can get back in sync even when everything else looks out of order.

RENO, Nev. (AP) - An inch of snow ended the longest recorded winter dry spell in Reno history early Monday, a 56-day stretch that began Nov. 20.
The old 54-day record dates to 1961.
Monday's snow produced only .4 inch of precipitation at Reno-Tahoe International Airport. But it was enough to snarl traffic and force the closure of a stretch of Interstate 80 for several hours.
State troopers reported nearly a dozen accidents, including one involving a patrolman's car. The trooper was out of his cruiser investigating a wreck near Lockwood when a semi-trailer struck it from behind.
Trooper Chuck Allen says no one was hurt in that crash but two people suffered minor to moderate injuries in other accidents. A 25-mile stretch of I-80 east of Sparks reopened about 7 a.m.

TRUCKEE, Calif. — The Truckee Ranger District will begin spring prescribed burning in the Truckee area as weather permits, officials announced last week.
"By burning the forest vegetation and debris in the fall or spring, we can have many of the ecosystem benefits of fire while lessening the intensity of future wildfires," said Linda Ferguson, District Fuels Management Officer, in a press release.
Weather is the biggest factor in determining when a prescribed burn can begin, Ferguson said, and temperature, humidity, fuel moisture and wind conditions are monitored for the right conditions.
Within the Truckee Ranger District of the Tahoe National Forest, underburning is planned near Stampede and Boca Reservoirs.
Forest Service fuels management personnel work closely with the California Air Resources Board and various air quality management districts to minimize smoke impacts to communities, Ferguson said.
Not all smoke can be avoided, however, and at times, smoke will settle into low areas and drainages during the evenings and last into the next morning.
"We ask that anyone who needs to be notified of a burn due to potential smoke impacts … contact us ahead of time so that we can notify them when a day of burning is beginning," Ferguson said.
Those seeking up-to-date prescribed fire information can be added to the Truckee Ranger District a pre-burn notification email list. To be added, contact Ferguson at 530-587-3558.
For general information on prescribed fire, residents can visit the TNF website.

Knitter's Review
August 20, 2009
How many major events began as a quiet conversation among friends with the words, "Wouldn't it be fun if...?"
Those same words led to the Sock Summit, a history-making sock-knitting extravaganza that took place in Portland, Oregon, earlier this month. I was there as a teacher, and this week I offer a pictorial look back at some of the event's most memorable moments.

SAN JOSE -- Hope turned to discouragement Tuesday as relatives and friends of a San Jose pilot whose plane went missing Sunday in the central Idaho backcountry waited for news about him and the family members aboard the aircraft.
After encouraging news earlier in the day that a faint signal was heard near where the plane went missing, darkness led officials to call off the search for the day.
"It's hard to think straight," said David Christensen, whose daughter-in-law is pilot Dale Smith's oldest daughter, Crystal.
Christensen described the Smiths as a tight-knit family, many of whom gathered Tuesday near where the plane lost contact, including Smith's wife and Michael and Crystal Christensen.
"We love our daughter-in-law so much, and we love their family," he said of the Smiths, whom he called "an amazing family" that is "extremely active."
"We are proud to be related to them," he said. "They're good people, a good influence. They do lots of things together. They play together, work together."
Officials have been looking for Smith's Beech Bonanza plane since he reported engine trouble on Sunday on a flight from Baker City, Ore., to Butte, Mont.. He asked controllers in Salt Lake City for coordinates to the Johnson Creek Airport, a grass-covered backcountry landing strip near the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness.
But then the plane lost radar and cell tower contact.
The Smiths, Christensen said, were in Oregon for the Thanksgiving holiday weekend before Sunday's flight.
Smith lives in South San Jose and is president of a Silicon Valley company. Authorities confirmed on Tuesday that the passengers on the plane were his son Daniel Smith and his wife, Sheree Smith, as well as daughter Amber Smith and her fiance Jonathan Norton.
On Monday, teams tried repeatedly to fly a helicopter over the last known contact area but had to turn back because of poor weather, according to Sgt. Rorie Snapp of the sheriff's office.

Weather was better on Tuesday but the search had to be called off at nightfall.
"Sundown was at 5 p.m. Mountain time, and the (search) planes had to be back at the base by then," said Rob Feeley of Idaho Bureau of Homeland Security. "We will begin searching at daylight tomorrow, with the same resources that we had today -- air and land assets from multiple agencies."
An aircraft searching the area picked up a weak emergency locator transmitter about a mile south of the Johnson Creek airstrip, Feeley said.
He said while the signals didn't lead to an exact location of the plane, they allowed officials to narrow the search to an area south of the airstrip where the plane was headed, near Yellow Pine, Idaho, which he called "highly inaccessible, rugged terrain."
Officials hope that weather conditions will be conducive to further air and land searches in coming days.
Christensen, who is a San Jose native but now lives in Draper, Utah, said that as time goes on, concerns grow.
"He's been lost for over 48 hours," he said. "You've got bad weather out there. For sure that's going to cause discouragement."
Smith is president of San Jose data storage company Serialtek. Rand Kriech, who cofounded the company, said colleagues are "very concerned" and they are "all waiting to hear news."
He said Smith bought the airplane in 2005 and has been flying ever since. Kriech said he has flown with Smith on occasion.
"He's a very safe pilot," Kriech said. "Very cautious."
Smith obtained his pilot's license in 2005 and has a second-class medical certification, allowing him to operate commercial aircraft.
Jonathan Norton's uncle Alan Dayton told the Salt Lake Tribune that his nephew traveled from San Jose to Baker City, Ore., with the Smith family and they were going to Butte, Mont., to drop of Amber Smith's brother and sister-in-law when the plane went missing.
The couple are planning a Jan. 4 wedding, Dayton said.
"The family is extremely worried," Dayton said. "There's a feeling of helplessness."
Media trucks descended on the Smiths' South San Jose home Tuesday morning, but it appeared that no one was home, including two children who live with Dale Smith and his wife.
David Castillo, a neighbor who has lived two doors down since the Smiths moved in about 12 years ago, described the family as friendly and invested in their community.
"They're very peaceful folks, good neighbors," said Castillo, who has lived there for 25 years. "He always got involved when he could with neighborhood activities: block parties, neighborhood breakfasts."
Castillo added that Dale Smith was an enthusiastic aviator, beaming with pride about being able to fly. He's keeping a close eye on news reports about the plane's disappearance and maintains an optimistic attitude.
"We're going to hope," Castillo said. "Nothing else is on our mind except that they're well and strong enough to survive until rescuers locate them."

Well MGMT have an album coming soon. The album will be produced by Peter kember of Spacemen 3 fame.Massive Attack release their new album.HELIGOLANDlooking forward to thatTWAT.
New M.I.A. songI'd have figured an M.I.A. track produced by Rusko would swing more to the "XR2" end of her spectrum, but this is downright Easy Listening. And pretty fucking enjoyable.I don't walk it like I talk it cause I run it
There is certainly a lot of atmosphere in that song along with the usual 'bunch of shit going on' in that song like her others that is cool. But why are the eq's so high on it? It hurts the ears.
I'm listening at work, so everything sounds equally shitty, but I would bet that the audio hasn't been mastered yet.I don't walk it like I talk it cause I run it
Cool I like it. It's a whole new sound sort of.. TWAT.
I haven't really listened to The Shins before but the collaboration of James Mercer w/ Dangermouse is nice sounding. Kind of spacy mixed with organic. Soulful but experimental.High Road
In reply to:Massive Attack release their new album.HELIGOLANDlooking forward to that
Massive Attack release their new album.HELIGOLANDlooking forward to that
It's a very good album. I got a pre-release version and am listening to it right now. Very atmospheric stuff, mid to low tempo. It's still triphop influenced but that doesn't mean it sounds dated. Something to listen to on your own. And it is worth listening as there are so many tiny bits and pieces woven into the sound that while the atmosphere is rather dark and introvert it is great fun to detect those things. Music to listen to when you are on your own.And now for something completely different: The Hotrats. A cover album by two of the Supergrass blokes which includes pretty good versions of songs like Queen Bitch, Love Is The Drug, Crystal Ship or Up The Junction. Music to have a beer with. TW GOD OF FOOTBALL
If you pay attention to hype, prepare to get inundated by the wave that'll be coming off of Yeasayer's Odd Blood in a couple of weeks.I'd rate it worth owning largely on the strengths of lead single "Ambling Alp," the Arcade Fire-ish "I Remember," and especially "Love Me Girl," which is the tits.I don't walk it like I talk it cause I run it

I have a pre of that album and wasn't moved when I listened to it. Maybe I should give it a second try.TW GOD OF FOOTBALL
I was skeptical at first, but I'm diggin' that Yeasayer tune now that it's kicked in.There's a lot of cool shtuff coming into my sphere that I missed from '09. Firstly, why did I hear nothing about Bear in Heaven until everyone's top 10 lists came in? Also, did anyone know that Ryan Gosling has a music project? I'm already a huge fan of the acting career so maybe I'm a bit biased, but I'm really impressed. It's like a goth pop doo wop get down that's weighted by a children's choir, of all things. Gosling sings and plays piano. Everything's a bit green and the tempo-template of the album (fast-fast-sloooooow...fast!) quickly loses its power, but overall, there's some smart melodies going on here on the friendlier side of goth. Certainly much more inventive than what I've yet heard from any current actor-turned-musician. I get a definite Nick Cave influence from the album's title track. As for the linked vid, this live performance from the album wrap party is much better than the studio cut... Dead Man's Bones - In The Room Where You Sleep you're so natural religiously unkind

Does our city charter matter? And do we have a moral imperative to honor the wishes of our ancestors? These are the core questions I ask Ashlanders to contemplate as we collectively consider whether we should end a century of parks independence and grab its money. Our parks commissioners voted unanimously to reject this awful proposal. All of us who love our parks, who hike our city's trails, who take our dogs for walks at parks, or who grow food in community gardens thank and support our parks commissioners for their courage in taking this stand.
What is most dispiriting about this proposed money-grab by those with positions of influence who should know better is how clearly it violates the trust we should be maintaining to those previous citizens who in the early 20th century had a vision, fought for, and ultimately succeeded in protecting what we now call Lithia Park.
Maintenance of all our parks since then has been legally possible because of specific language in the charter, and along the way, what we might call "gentlemen's agreements" which now appear to be in jeopardy. So does our city charter matter anymore?
Here's the relevant verbatim language from the charter: "Article XIX, Section 3: Funding. The said Park Commission shall have control and management of all the lands here dedicated for park purposes and of all other lands that may hereafter be acquired by the City for such purposes. They shall have control and management of all park funds, whether the same is obtained by taxation, donation or otherwise, and shall expend the same judiciously for beautifying and improving the City's parks."
Pretty straightforward, eh? It appears, however, that we are now on a collision course — after more than a century of good will, public comity, and collective stewardship — with a minority who want to end this century of cooperation by grabbing parks' revenue to balance a bloated budget.
This raises my second question, do we current Ashland citizens have a moral imperative to honor the vision and good works of our ancestors? Will those who support this questionable idea of robbing Peter to pay Paul for "fiscal reasons" please explain why this doesn't defy our city charter and dishonor the expressed wishes of those who came before?
Lithia Park is a national treasure today because of wise action by ahead-of-their-time citizens who understood that a day would inevitably come when those who think life is primarily about the wallet would rationalize a scheme to sacrifice our parks first. They knew the best way to avoid this was to create independence in decision-making and revenue. So our charter created a Parks Commission with elected commissioners (the only city commission with elected members) and a separate, untouchable budget (thus the charter's legal, sanctioning language and other fiscal mechanisms which over time have kept the parks' budget separate).
You can give a name to something, you can call it a Citizens Budget Committee; you can elect a human and give him the role of mayor; you can sound the fiscal alarm like the boy crying wolf about the future of our city's finances; you can administer a city and ignore a history you might not respect while ringing the false bell of fiscal doom and gloom; and yes, you can permanently ruin Ashland's unique Parks Commission and Parks Department, which represent one of the most successful stories anywhere in the world of parks protection and conservation.
What you can't do is look all those ancestors in the eye — wherever it is they now dwell — and shake their hand and reassure them you have been faithful to them; you have kept their word; you have honored them by deed and bond. No, you will admit that you abdicated to the shouting of wallet-minders and allowed hyperbolic money concerns to drown out the morally correct impulses in your soul.
If this shameful idea succeeds and we somehow violate our city charter — that will indeed be an unhappy legacy of this council, this Citizens Budget Committee, this mayor, and this new city administrator — who collectively all seem too ready to take this unprecedented action and violate a century of collective, community cooperation and trust.
Finally, not being a newcomer, it appears this is all a done deal and a compromise has now been floated. No! The definition of compromise is that everyone relinquishes their values and views and accepts a weak, watered-down, half-way alternative that satisfies no one and achieves little success. Don't compromise, parks commissioners! You have the city charter's legal language as your foundation and you should stand on it and fight! You will have support, visible and invisible, from all Ashlanders, alive and dead, who will always love our parks.

This week's DVD picks range from the macabre to the musical.
"Frankenweenie": The elements that are the genius of director Tim Burton are all there. As he did with "Edward Scissorhands," Burton strips away some of the shine of suburbia to show the darker side that lurks below. There is his fascination with life and death that has popped up in his "Corpse Bride." And there is Burton's macabre interest in life after death, a driving theme of "Beetlejuice."
It's as if the original "Frankenweenie" is a microcosm of themes Burton's examined in all of his other movies. As long as the film focuses on those elements, "Frankenweenie" is a thrills-and-chills ride brought to life through Burton's quirky artistic style. Even in black and white, every scene is a splash of visual splendor.
"Game Change": The cable film starts with the realization by the John McCain team they need to come up with their own game changer to have any hope of being able to defeat Barack Obama. Danny Strong, who wrote the screenplay, sees Sarah Palin as one of the great American political stories of our time -- a rather raw politician pushed into a national forum with little known about her.
You might argue with the film's politics, but the one thing that isn't debatable is the performance by Julianne Moore as Palin. It's Moore's brilliant work that's the true strength of the production.
"Smash: Season One": The NBC series about staging a Broadway musical hits a few sour notes along the way, but the overall production works as a character study about those who put art above everything else. The two main stars -- Katharine McPhee and Broadway veteran Megan Hilty -- are amazing to listen to and watch.
The second season begins in early February, and this is a way to get caught up with the story.

Alright, here is what happened... I have Vista x64 and I was using the latest stable release of PS3MS. However, that version uses 32-bit java, so I thought that I would be cool so I found a topic on this forum where shagrath posted a version that WOULD work with 64-bit java... and it seemed to work! However, all of my MKV's with DTS audio now only stream static. I can't live without DTS so I uninstalled the PS3MS and reverted back to the old version, but my settings stayed the same and DTS will still not work. I have tried to clear everything and start over, but everytime I re-install, all my PS3MS settings are the same (i.e. folder locations and everything).
Does anyone know where the PS3MS settings are stored so that I can erase that file/information? Please?

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Friday, Oct. 26, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- The Augusta man accused of shooting and killing an elderly man wants out of jail, but after a bond hearing Friday morning, he will be there a little longer.
The deadly shooting earlier this month left 66-year-old Russell Boyd dead, his family left wondering why and 28-year-old Ronnie Berrian charged with murder.
Little words can describe the feeling when Boyd's family saw the accused gunman for the very first time.
Johnny Harris, Boyd's cousin, said, "If he had to do something to my cousin, I'd rather him fight him and whoop him because it ain't hard for a 28-year-old man to beat a 66-year-old man."
But what investigators say Berrian did to Harris' cousin had irreversible consequences.
Carol Boyd, wife of the victim, said, "I had just saw my husband at 7:15 and to hear a call at 9 o'clock was just devastating."
Investigators say her husband and Berrian got into an argument at Berrian's Camille Street home. Deputies say Berrian pulled the trigger, but it didn't go off, so he went back in the home and returned, following Boyd half a block.
Larissa Tate, Berrian's fiancee, said, "How this situation has taken place about my husband being locked up is ridiculous -- and no bond? It's just totally ridiculous."
For a family grieving, it's exactly what justice looks like.
"I'm sorry for you all's lost, I can't take back what happened," Tate said.
The victim's wife described her husband, "He was a giving, loving, very kind man -- very kind. Always had a smile on his face."
They had been together for three years. The family wonders why someone would hurt an elderly man.
"The guys that's out here toting these guns, and shooting and aim later or shooting and think later, those are the ones that have seemingly lost total respect for elders," Harris said.
With no bond, Berrian may be doing just that -- thinking about that deadly decision, ultimately to be decided by a jury.
Boyd leaves behind his wife and a son. He owned a beauty shop in Wrens and cut grass on the side.
Meanwhile, the judge denied Berrian bond after hearing of his previous criminal history.

CORPUS CHRISTI – Sophomore Nate Maxey and freshman Dale Francis will not return to the Texas A&M – Corpus Christi men's basketball team, head coach Willis Wilson announced today. Maxey has been granted a release to transfer to another Division I institution, while Francis has decided to step away from basketball at this time.
"We want to wish Nate and Dale the best of luck as they seek to do what is best for their families," Wilson said. "We hope they will be successful in their future endeavors."
Maxey played in 28 games as a sophomore, making five starts, and averaged 4.5 points and 2.9 rebounds on the season. He finished third in the Southland in blocks per game, averaging 2.0 per contest with a total of 57 on the year. In his two-year career, he played in 57 games for the Islanders.
Francis averaged 2.0 points and 2.0 rebounds in his debut season for Texas A&M – Corpus Christi, playing in 29 games while making 18 starts. He shot 46.8 percent from the field and recorded a total of 441 minutes as a freshman.
The Islanders return nine letterwinners from last year's team in addition to sophomore Jake Kocher and freshman Jerred Kite, who both redshirted in 2012-13. The team has signed forwards Jeff Beverly (Houston/Clear Lake) and Rashawn Thomas (Oklahoma City/Southeast) to National Letters of Intent for the 2013-14 season.

Fiscal-Cliff Law by the Numbers
It took a while, but the budget bean-counters are beginning to come up with charts and tables to show the impact of the tax law (formally, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012) that Congress passed and President Barack Obama signed this week.
The White House, using estimates from the Congressional Budget Office and Congress's Joint Committee on Taxation, says the law cuts the deficit by $737 billion over 10 years from what CBO said the deficit would have been had previous policies been extended (including the extension of all Bush tax cuts). Most of that comes from tax increases on upper-income housesholds; $104 billion of it comes from spending less on interest since there will be less borrowing than projected.
There's a line-by-line table here.
The non-partisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget has weighed in, too, and its estimates resemble the White House's.
CRFB figures that the tax increases would bring the federal debt–the accumulation of all past borrowing–held by the public (that is, excluding what's in the Social Security trust fund) to 78.9% of gross domestic product in 2022, versus the 81.5% that the committee projected had previous policies been extended.
Deficits have been so large in recent times that the accumulation of federal borrowing has been growing much faster than the economy and, as a result, the debt as a percentage of GDP has been rising. The Obama administration's goal is to reduce the deficit sufficiently so debt as a percentage of GDP stabilizes, albeit at a level much above prerecession levels. (The federal debt hit a recent low of 32.5% of GDP in 2001.)
(The deficit is the difference between spending and revenues in any one year. The government borrows that difference. The debt is the total sum that the government owes, or the accumulation of past deficits.)
If Congress were to allow the remaining across-the-board spending cuts to take effect in March (unlikely) and to allow Medicare doctor fees to be cut at the end of the year (also unlikely), or if it were to offset those changes with similar savings on an annual basis (approximately $1.4 trillion), the debt could be reduced to approximately 73% of GDP in 2022 but likely would increase after that, the CRFB's Ed Lorenzen said.
Both the White House and CBO estimates rely on CBO's summer 2011 economic projections. The picture will change somewhat later this month when CBO updates its economic and budget forecasts.

Monday March 25, 2013
Augusta, Ga--With the Augusta RiverHawks season officially over, the question is there. Have we seen the last of hockey in Augusta? We had a chance to catch up with RiverHawk owner Bob Kerzner on the tough decisions ahead.
"We're stuck in limbo as well as the fans and everybody else" said owner Bob Kerzner "Just waiting to hear what they may do or what they may not do. Because it could be a reasonable price or it could get very, very expensive."
It's a catch 22 situation without a doubt. The RiverHawks, or any hockey team needs a place to play, the arena would likely need a commitment to see if it's worth repairing the damage or replace the cooling system all together.
"In a 35 year old building how much money do you want to spend on that building and what's the life of that building" added Kerzner "So those are the questions the city and the commissioners have to ask and answer for themselves and then once they decide, pass that information along to us."
Bob Kerzner owns the Riverhawks and are at the end of their lease. A couple of months ago they said they need roughly 800 season ticket packages for next year to make this work. That was before the ice issues.
"There are a few options out there and they have to decide if they're going to keep patching this building up thats' 35 years old or maybe are they going to make the long term investment to put a new arena
in somewhere."
So what if Richmond County said they would make the investment so they can make ice?
"I have to see the ice." said Kerzner "Because I've seen situations before where committments have been made by cities or counties in other areas of the country towards the ice hockey teams that we're going to have this done or that done and it never happens"
So in Kerzner's eyes, right now, it's in the hands of the Arena and Richmond County before he decides on whether or not he will have a team in Augusta in the future.

I got ps3 media server 1.82 on my mac with osx 10.8.3.
Before i had another version, but do not ask me witch one. Anyway my tsMuxer is not working anymore. The only visible transcoded files are from mEncoder and VLC. But VLC is not working on my Sony Blue-Ray System anyway and the mEncoder stucks a lot. Even with normal quality.
When tsMuxer was still working, and it still is on the other mac with 1.78, i think, i never had any troubles during streaming.
I already tried to deleter all the files, reinstall psm, even tried the version from the other mac, but nothing helps.
I really want to enjoy my movies again. Does anyone have a solution for this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Regards Oliver
Ps. Attached you find the most important settings.

Roadmaster Suspension Solutions Anti-Sway Bars
Ask a Question
How Anti-Sway Bars Work
Anti-sway bars link the suspension and the frame, using the weight of the axle as a brace against the chassis to distribute weight more evenly. Pressure against one side of the coach from wind, passing trucks or weight shift is countered by the bar.
Why RSS Anti-Sway Bars Are Better:
- Larger diameter than factory bars—Every 1/8" increase in bar diameter increases resistance to sway by 30 percent. RSS bars are 1/4"-3/8" larger in diameter than most factory anti-sway bars.
- High-grade 4140 "chromoly" steel construction—RSS bars are made of a chrome and molybdenum alloy which is considerably stronger and more durable than the 1020 standard spring steel used in many factory sway bars.
- Polyurethane bushings—More durable than factory rubber bushings, polyurethane is impervious to gasoline, oil and ozone corrosion, is more resistant to abrasion and won't buckle under heavier loads.
Each RSS anti-sway bar is designed for a custom fit on a specific motorhome, pickup, van or SUV chassis. Kits include: the anti-sway bar; bushings and lubricant; installation hardware and instructions. Specify year, make and model when ordering, including chassis type on motorhomes. Mfr. limited 1 year warranty to original purchaser.

Sounds like everybody is off to a great start! I just finished W3D1 and completed my first 3 min. run. I remeber when 60 sec runs were hard! I'm really excited about this!
How are you all doing?
Well done Teacherintraining.
I'm inspired by all the posts where people are achieving more and that the easy 'hard' stuff they don't find so hard after all.
Looking forward to keeping it up to reach that 3min run!

Couldn't wait for W1D2 to arrive (although I've still to complete W1D1 properly) and My alarm failed to go off. Luckily there was still time to do a run.
I wasn't keen though. I just wanted to be an instant success. Reading and-she-ran's blog made it sound like there was going to be pain and suffering everyday and I wasn't sure I was up to that.
Oh Vertigoagain, I feel terrible. I really didn't mean to discourage anyone through what I wrote in my blog. I am loving the program and have loved everyday so far. I will be honest in admitting that some days are more challenging than other.
In my blog I really wanted to give a real and honest account of a lot of things, including the C25K program. I had read a few blogs where people had done C25K and it sounded like they had breezed through it but I knew that wasn't going to be my experience at all. While I'm sure there are others out there, I wanted to create a blog that showed all the aspects, the ups, the downs, when I succeed but also when I fail. I will make sure I concentrate on talking more about the ups
Congratualtions on completing the 8 intervals! And I am glad you are finding so much success with your app! I love mine too!!

|Read more about my journey to get healthy, learn to run and find myself at And She Ran...
Hi All,
This group caught my eye as you are all just beginning & it seems as though I was just there myself. I am in the group July 4th start C25K an am now on week 7!
First I want to say you all can do this!!!! We had many many people join the group but only about 7-8 of us are still posting our progress. Not sure if the others stopped running or don't post but I'm assuming they stop running because the rest of us look to each other for support each week as we post our great runs & not so great runs & it really gets you through it. I have never desired to be a runner & tried many different ways to exercise from aerobic DVD's, pilates, walking etc but would soon dread doing them. I've always battled with a stubborn 10-15 pounds (I know it doesn't sound like much weight but to me it is to keep it off) and I saw my daughter who is in college lose weight & shape up by running. I thought I was too old to start but I read if you can walk you can run & it gave instructions on doing intervals which I started. My co-wroker then told me about this program which is very similar & I have been doing it & proud of myself for sticking to it & I'm really enjoying it & looking forward to the challenge of he next run. I haven't lost a single pound which is frustrating but I am very much firming up & my close fit loser & I am told weight loss will come after a while. I haven't been dieting but I eat pretty healthy with an occasional treat. Anyway...stick to it everyone & keep posting & you will be glad you did!
Abby, I looked you up on Facebook & tried to add you as a friend to join your goup but it didn't give a place to put a note that it usually does for me to say that I am doing C25K & I want to join your group. Sounds like fun!
I'm sure your doing great! 3 min runs are the beginning of wk 3. I thought I'd never get there, but I did and so will you! As some one told me, just keep running, running, running.
I'm just starting to wonder exactly how many terrible training days I can have. I mean, I used to be a sprinter... WHY IS IT SO HARD TO START FROM THE BASICS?
Not sure how to do this quote thing but And-she-ran, shall we trade apologies I didn't mean to sound like your blog put me off; it didn't it is inspiring that someone is finding the little daily battles just challenging enought to keep going and that progress is being made on a steady basis.
I tried a new route this morning [W1D2, yes I made it to a whole day two, too, twit-twoo] because I wanted to get better GPS stats but it seems to have messed up 1 running interval by 0.02mile [at my stage these inches [35 yds} are important
After running session 3 My achilles on the inside of my right foot suddenly hurt and I couldn't push off from my toes. Should I quit? Possibly. Did I quit? No. I walked carefully until it eased and then ran slightly differently. I hope it does not inflame too much. Did I complete all the 8 sessions? YES!! It's only slightly tender to the touch now.
W1D2 [including railway bridge twice]
1.13miles 0.01 more than W1D1
Pace 16.25m/mile 0:07m faster
Overall time 18:30 same
Fastest interval 12:34m/mile 0:13m slower (steadier now)
Now eating my huge bowl of watermelon and looking forward to going out hashing this evening (maybe walking only) and resting up until Thursday!
Keep those runs coming in.

Going too fast. Apparently, this is the hardest thing sprinters have to learn, to go slow for distance and endurance.
And to not be afraid to repeat sessions.
Chin up!
I'm actually about to start, either this evening or tomorrow (Tuesday,) I'm waiting on my new shoes to come in, I managed to tear the stitching out of the sides of my old ones from wearing shoes too narrow, so I went to a store Friday and they were very helpful, but my shoes (needing to be 4Es) had to be ordered. They should be in today, though. I'm pretty excited to start this program, though I have a few problems. On the heel to buttock stretch I can't actually grab my leg behind me, I'm not very limber, so I'm working with what i can do to stretch without hurting myself.
Welcome apieceofenergy
Check out Pose Running Method
Also if you can't get your heel to your buttock, PRESS you foot against a wall at knee height behind you and concentrate on trying to straighten your leg whilst straightening your upper body and pushing your hips forward so a gentle stretch is found in the front thigh.
Only do this when you are warmed up and only AFTER your run, not before [except under supervision of a remedial therapist]. Stretches are for after runs, warmups are for before.
Resistive stretching is brilliant see Bob Cooley.
Did Week 1, Day 2 yesterday and felt great. I did it early in the morning and when I was half way through it started to pour rain. It got me more motivated. I liked it a lot & was able to do all of the runs this time. I will most likely repeat a couple of days before moving up to Week 2 just so I take it at my own pace. I tried at least doing 1 run for the 1.5 minutes to see if I could it. I had so much energy yesterday & felt wonderful. Can't wait to try it tomorrow.
Congrats on Day 2 SJM! My first day was in the rain and I thought it felt excellent! And the cool rain did wonders for my beet red, sweaty face
I think that repeating days to maintain a pace that you are comfortable with is a great idea... From what I have been reading it seems like a lot of people who have not suceeded with the program stopped because they pushed themselves too much, too soon. Our bodies are truly awesome things, capable of a lot if we just listen to them...

Hi apieceofenergy!
Man, I love new shoes They always feel so fresh and bouncy!! I hope they ensure you have an excellent start to the program, I can't wait to hear how you go!!

On a small pause now until my achilles stops being sore. After my run yesterday I planned to just go and meet the Hashers (drinking club that runs) at their weekly meet. Well I got dragged in going out with them (in the walking gang, or in my case hobbling).
Bad move.
It was 6.6 miles and they hadn't marked the 1.5 mile shortcut either. Got back after dark after 1.5hours of hobbling. Still achilles is still no sorer today (though still difficult to walk) Checking up on the ne I did the absolute worst thing for it Ah well at least the walk was good for my general fitness.
No more running due until Thursday anyway, so keep your fingers crossed I'll recover for W1D3.
Great reports from the rest of you, keep it up!
Hi, all.. I started this i think at about the time this thread started, but I just found this forum. I've been walking forever, but was never able to make the leap to running. I love this C25K program. I'm on Week 3, and should complete the 9 weeks by the end of Sept if I can keep on keepin' on as they say. I use a couple free aps for my smart phone to help me time the intervals and keep track of how far I've gone. Endomondo is really cool because i can run different courses and trails and still know how far, and it also tracks pace and aprox. calories used. the other one is A HIIT interval timer.. it's really flexible for the weeks in the middle.
My last training run was the first time I had to run for 3 minutes. I thought that thing would never beep. but on the second round, I didn't even notice I'd gone 3 minutes. Wierd, huh?
I signed up for a 5k race in my neighborhood at the end of October. I'm running on trails till I can run a full 5K, then I'll start running on the course, which has hills.
Running today: it will be my 2nd day of week 3.

In Germany we have a saying, "The best stories are written by real life." Last month we had a perfect example of how true this is. From the moment a guest enters the Breidenbacher Hof, we take on the challenge of making our guests feel comfortable and at home. This is the Capella Experience after all. Recently my colleague Philipp truly succeeded in this and impressed both the guests and the rest of the Breidenbacher Hof team in the process.
Philipp is our Banquet Supervisor and is passionate about catering to events and meetings at the hotel. Guests are always impressed with the service he provides, but during this particular event it was his tie that guests were complimenting. The guest was joking that he liked the tie so much that perhaps he would have to steal it off of Phillip! Phillip, who is always looking for ways to surprise guests, found a quiet moment and ran across the street to a department store where he was able to purchase the same tie. The guest of course didn't have any idea of Philipp's plan and was totally overwhelmed when Phillip came back with the gift. I know, the story already sounds fantastic but it is doesn't end there!
The next day, the guest went to Philipp and surprised him with a small present in return. He told him that he never experienced anything like that before. To show how thankful he was for the thoughtful gift, he also bought a tie for Phillip!
Everyone on the team was so inspired by the story. It is a reminder how even a small gesture can hold a lot of meaning. For me, this story reflects what I love so much about Capella Hotels and Resorts: serving my guests with passion. Because being able to do something meaningful for someone else is a very rewarding experience.

NREL Study Shows Renewable Energy Potential in Every State
August 1, 2012
A new study of renewable energy's technical potential finds that every state in the nation has the space and resources to generate clean energy. The Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) produced the study, U.S. Renewable Energy Technical Potentials, which looks at each state's available renewable resources for solar, wind, biopower, geothermal, and hydropower energy. The study establishes an upper-boundary estimate of development potential. Economic or market restraints would factor into what projects might actually be deployed.
The report is valuable for decision makers and utility executives because it compares estimates across renewable energy technologies and unifies assumptions and methods. It shows the achievable energy generation of a particular technology given resource availability, system performance, topographic limitations, and environmental and land-use constraints. The study includes state-level maps and tables containing available land area (square kilometers), installed capacity (gigawatts), and electric generation (gigawatt-hours) for each technology. See the NREL press release and the complete report.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Jan. 18, 2013 – Musicians have the Grammys, actors have the Oscars and the outdoor industry has Outdoor Channel's Golden Moose Awards, which recognize the finest shows on outdoor television. Ducks Unlimited TV (DU-TV) tied for top honors with Pheasants Forever's The Flush in the Best Bird Hunting category at the annual awards show in Las Vegas last night.
"Appearing on behalf of all DU members and fans to accept the award last night was a real honor," said James Powell, DU director of communications. "I'm proud of the unique way we've been able to share the thrill of waterfowling and the satisfaction of wetlands and waterfowl conservation on such a great show."
More than 20 awards were presented throughout the event, which was hosted by outdoor icon Michael Waddell at The Venetian Hotel and Casino.
"The DU staff and the show's hosts and crew do an excellent job sharing our mission with viewers across the country and our partners and sponsors provide great support," said Mike Checkett, DU-TV host. "A special thanks to them, and to everyone who voted for DU-TV this year."
DU-TV is sponsored by Browning Dirty Bird and Dodge Ram trucks with support from Avery Outdoors and Winchester Ammunition. In addition to a great hunt each week viewers can pick up practical tips on shooting, hunting, conservation and North America's rich waterfowling heritage.
Ducks Unlimited Inc. is the world's largest non-profit organization dedicated to conserving North America's continually disappearing waterfowl habitats. Established in 1937, Ducks Unlimited has conserved nearly 13 million acres thanks to contributions from more than a million supporters across the continent. Guided by science and dedicated to program efficiency, DU works toward the vision of wetlands sufficient to fill the skies with waterfowl today, tomorrow and forever.

Back in April, I wrote a blog for the ladies on how to dress for success when it comes to job interviews, career fairs, and when starting a job in the business world. Now I want to tell you fellas out there some tips for how to dress professionally as well. Your appearance is the first impression you make, so make sure it's good.
1. Suit
Black suits are also preferred, pinstripes are okay as are navy and grays. Tan and light colored suits should be reserved for the summer season.
2. Shirt
If you want to pursue finances, then stick with the white collared button-ups. Otherwise, cream colors and blues are nice as well.
3. Shoes
Your shoes should be polished and the color should either match or blend well with your suit. Sometimes you can mix it up, but this is a bold move.
4. Groom
Make sure you are nicely groomed. This includes a nice hair cut, shaved face, and even shaving the back of your neck to keep your hairline sharp and looking clean.
5. Tie
Learning how to tie a tie is a very useful skill to have. There are many different ways to tie a tie, but the Full Windsor is the most professional.
When presenting yourself to a potential employer, especially as a college student or a recent graduation, looking professional portrays that you act professionally. Watch this video below for further details on how to dress successfully.

DEAR JOAN: I had to respond to last week's question about smelling the strong odor of skunks. I believe what she is smelling is most likely cannabis.
Plants have started their flowering cycle in this area and the fragrance of high-grade cannabis is very similar to that of skunk spray, hence the name "skunk weed."
Just thought I'd help "clear the air."
Bay Area
DEAR NANCY: I've lived such a sheltered life.
DEAR JOAN: I have two bird feeders on my front porch. They each have three long tubes that I've always filled with wild bird seed and sunflower seeds. This year the birds practically ignore the bird seed and polish off the sunflower seed in record time, and that's with two tubes each filled with the sunflower seeds.
The mess below gets piled up, not to mention the mess on the porch. There are plenty of uneaten sunflower seeds thrown down to the ground along with the hulls. I see doves and squirrels a lot on the ground.
When I say piled up, I mean piled up. I've taken to buying 40-pound bags. Of course, I enjoy watching the feeders with all the birds, but seriously.
Another mystery involves a glass birdbath I bought a while back. The glass bowl has a beautiful butterfly in it. I have never once seen a bird on it. I thought maybe it was because I had a hanging water container nearby, so I moved it to the backyard. Still no bird on it. Do you think they don't like the bright colors of the butterfly? Any ideas?
Carol Sanford
Morgan Hill
DEAR CAROL: Birds vary their diets just as humans do. A lot of their preferences have to do with the time of the year. In the spring, they may prefer the bird seed as it mimics what they find out in the wild and it is what their bodies are craving.
As autumn approaches, birds often will turn to the sunflower seeds for the oil in them. This will help them fatten up either for their migration or to help keep them warm during the winter.
Sunflower seeds are an important food for wild birds, but they are going to make a mess. Even if the birds didn't spill the seeds, there still are the shells to contend with. It is best to locate those feeders in an area where you can easily clean up the mess with a rake or a broom. The other option is buy shelled sunflower seeds. You'll still have some spillage, but the doves and squirrels will do a better job with the cleanup. The real plus, however, is no shells.
As for the mystery of your birdbath, the problem is with the bath itself. We love pretty things for the garden, but birds just want functionality.
They like shallow bowls -- if the bath is too deep, the birds can't touch the bottom -- and plain, dull colors.
It's probably not the butterfly nor the colors, but the glass, which is slippery and offers the birds no secure foothold.
The answer is to put a large rock in the middle. Look for one that resembles the Rock of Gibraltar -- high on one side and sloping down toward the water on the other. This will give the birds a nice perch from which to dip their toes, and bodies, and more importantly, will give them some traction.
You also can add some rocks and pebbles in the bottom of the bowl, but be sure to clean it often. Those little rocks tend to get really slimy and nasty.

'The Good Wife' Recap, Season 5, Episode 8, 'The Next Month'
In tonight's "The Good Wife," Will announces plans to open an office in New York. It's a new era for Lockhart/Gardner, oh wait, it's now called "L/G." Because of branding.
Will and David Lee and Diane are all gleefully enjoying that the Florrick/Agos have been working out of Alicia's house and some clients are leaving because of governor issues.
Luckily, the Alicia/Cary firm does have new offices in an old t-shirt factory. It needs a little elbow grease.
America Ferrera is back as Natalie Flores. She needs a consultation on a VISA and the U.S. Attorney's office wants the client to squeal on the Latin gangsters. Flores now works for a rich lobbyist, so Alicia decides to take it. First new client, Yay!
They are already making cuts to payroll and talking about cutting Robin the investigator. She, of course, overhears this. Robin goes back to L/G but Kalinda says she can't be hired back. Kalinda tells Robin she needs to make herself indispensable.
Marilyn, the ethics overseer, drops by the new Florrick firm with Eli Gold. Eli sees Natalie/America and he's intrigued. He really liked her last time. Awh, it's cute to see him all flustered. He asks her out to dinner and she says yes. Then she has to run out on him and turns around and asks him to go out to dinner and brings him dried apricots.
The ethics woman is complaining to Peter about Eli. She thinks Natalie is affecting Eli's opinions. Which, sort of.
Somehow Tomas, the client, is being deported although he was promised that wouldn't happen. Didn't this happen before? The U.S. Attorney is all backpedaling. Turns out they mixed him up with another Tomas. Robin finds the real criminal Tomas, but the client is already on the bus to Mexico. It's very confusing.
There's a whole separate storyline about Will's new girlfriend being in the office too much. She gets jealous of Alicia. She's also a little crazy.
Will calls Natalie/America to ask if she needs help on the Tomas case. Robin then sneaks a bullet with the gangster symbols on them. Alicia calls for a visa in the grounds of witness intimidation. The judge likes the claim, but sends them to an immigration case worker who says no.
So Natalie/America calls Will. Will nothing go right for the Florrick/Agos group?
Robin somehow comes up with a phony expedited deportation list saying that their client Tomas was wanted as a con man back in America. It gets him turned away from the Mexican border so he's safe from the gangsters.
Oh no, Eli is bailing on Natalie. He's so sad. Then he changes his mind and says he can't lie to her and gives her a big kiss. She gives him one right back. This should be really creepy right, because he's 20 years older?
At the end, Peter comes and drops by the new firm and tells Alicia she's going to take over the world.
Next week: A new man comes to the L/G firm.
