Irving'e karşı Lipstadt
Holocaust Denial on Trial, Skeleton Argument of the Claimant (long): Electronic Edition, by Adrian DaviesTable of Contents

|Racism and Anti-Semitism >>
The deportation of the Berlin Jews and the Riga massacres (paras. 5.90 to 5.110 and 13.21 to 13.25)
68.It is submitted that Irving's treatment of these episodes is (1) to be preferred to Evans's, alternatively, (2) is a fair alternative interpretation of the material available to Irving.
69.As to 5.106, Gray J wrongly summarizes the evidence when he says:--
"In relation to the entry in Himmler's log for 1 December 1941, Irving said that he misread Himmler's spidery Suetterlin handwiting: he thought he had written Judentransporte in the plural. It was, he said, a 'silly misreading'."
70.In fact Judentransport occurs in the entry for 30 November, 1941 entry, and haben zu bleiben, which Irving admitted misreading as Juden zu bleiben, on 1 December, 1941. Irving never admitted misreading Judentransport as Judentransporte.
71.Evans's criticism of Irving's explanation for this mistake cited by Gray J at 5.110 is merely one instance of Evans's gross bias against Irving, and anxiety to impute the worst possible motives to him at every turn. The misreading of Himmler's difficult handwriting in respect of the phrase haben zu bleiben as Juden zu bleiben was regrettable, and eventually corrected. Irving was the first to find and transcribe these notes from Himmler's very difficult old-German handwriting, using barely legible photocopies in the 1960s. He inevitably made numerous errors of transcription. Others have since gone over the same notes and polished and refined the transcriptions. The excision of this sentence from the text has made no difference to the thrust of Irving's argument that there was a direct connection between Hinamler's arrival at Hitler's HQ on 30 November 1941 and his telephone call to Heydrich, ordering a halt to the liquidation of the Berlin Jews.
72.Turning to this point at 13.21, Gray J says:--
"The second criticism (which is more important for the purpose of this case) is that Irving is in error when he claims that the instruction not to liquidate the Jews on that transport emanated from Hitler. There is no evidence that Hitler 'summoned' Himmler to his headquarters and 'obliged' him to telephone to Heydrich an order that Jews were not to be liquidated."
73.The sequence of events established by Himmler's agenda and telephone log is as follows. Himmler went to Hitler's headquarters in East Prussia on the morning of 30 November 1941, and "from the bunker" spoke at 1.30 p.m. by telephone to Heydrich, forbidding the liquidation of the trainload of Jews from Berlin. Himmler certainly saw Hitler either before or after this telephone call. Evans's claim at 5.104 that there were "several" bunkers at Hitler's HQ was refuted on the spot by Irving: Evans admitted that his map of the HQ was from 1944, after extensive bunker construction had taken place. Gray J makes no reference to Evans's poor methodology on this issue.
74.As Irving has recorded in many books, the trainload of Berlin Jews had however already been liquidated on arrival in Riga at around 9 a.m. on the morning of 30 November 1941. The culprit, SS Obergruppenführer Jeckeln, was severely criticised by Himmler (in a message intercepted by British codebreakers on 1 December 1941) for arbitrarily and disobediently exceeding the guidelines laid down by Hammier and the Reichssicherheitshauptamt (Heydrich):--
"SS Obergruppenführer Jeckeln. The Jews being out placed to Ostland [the Baltic states] are to be dealt with only in accordance with the guidelines laid down by myself and/or by the Reichssicherheitshauptamt on my orders. I would punish arbitrary and disobedient acts. (sgd) Himmler." See Day 3 13 January 2000.
75.That same day Himmler summoned Jeckeln to East Prussian HQ by a second code signal; Jeckeln presented himself at HQ on 4 December 1941, and was reprimanded. The killings of German Jews immediately stopped for several months. All the expert witnesses agreed that this was the documented sequence.
76.It is accordingly the primary and most reasonable inference that there was a very direct connection between Himmler's arrival at Hitler's HQ and his sudden telephone call to Heydrich, ordering a halt to the liquidation of the Berlin Jews.
77.As to 5.94, Irving was entitled heavily to discount Wisliceny's ex post facto guess work. Wisliceny (a mass murderer, who was hanged after the war for his crimes) is speculating when he expresses his conviction that in late 1941, Hitler had "ordered the biological annihilation of European Jewry".
78.5.120: Here the mathematics are out. As Irving stated in evidence, and Evans agreed, a pit of those dimension would hold at most 1,500 corpses (not 7,000). Bruns stated there were "two or three" such pits. A pit three metres wide cannot be dug deeper than two metres, unless shored up, which these pits were not.
79.At 13.24 Gray J says of Irving's treatment of Bruns' evidence:--
"An objective historian is obliged to be even-handed in his approach to historical evidence: he cannot pick and choose without adequate reason."
80.Leaving aside the conduct of the Defendants' experts, who throughout dismissed whatever they did not like as euphemism, falsehood, forgery, self-serving or neo-Nazi, etc., the reason (which Gray J does not state) was simply that for the first part of Bruns's statement (mass shootings are to stop) there was contemporary corroborative evidence, for example the signal from Himmler, and the fact that the shootings did stop for many months. For the second part, the suggestion that: "the shootings are to continue more surreptitiously, Irving had not discovered a shred of corroborative evidence.
81.As to 5.126, Irving's translation is taken word for word from the original Weidenfeld edition of Hitler's Table Talk (ed. Hugh Trevor Roper). Irving pointed out to Gray J that the Trevor Roper edition was not a slavish translation of the original German text, which only became available years later. The last sentence of this paragraph should be read in this context.
82.At 5.148 Gray J observes:--
"But he accepted, with some reluctance, that it does establish that Hitler authorised the liquidation of Jews in the East as if they were partisans."
83.This is a seriously inaccurate summary of Irving's evidence. Irving adhered to the view that the correct rendering of the German wording was that (certain unidentified) Jews were to be liquidated as partisans, not like or as if they were partisans.
84.Re 5.185: Hitler's adjutants was interrogated in 1945/46 et seq. on precisely this knowledge by the Allied interrogators, and their response was the same.
85.Re 5.193: Gray J fails to take into account the compelling argument that in their own private notes Himmler, Bormann and the other leading Nazis had no need to use euphemisms.

8 Valentine's Day Gifts Your Novio Will Love
Looking at nearly 200 newlywed couples, the University of Tennessee found that both men and women are more satisfied in their relationships when the woman's BMI was lower than the man's. While the study ruled out other factors like depression and income, which could have skewed the results, these findings are certainly not a reason to drop pounds. After all, the happiest relationships are those when both partners love and accept each other at any size, right?
According to a study at the University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research, couples have a 20 percent higher chance of breaking up when a woman is BFF with her guy's parents. So, if you're not super close with your man's mom... that might actually be a good thing.

Critic Armond White Calls Stories He Heckled Director Steve McQueen 'Lies'
Film critic Armond White said allegations that he heckled "12 Years a Slave" director Steve McQueen at the New York Film Critics Circle Awards Monday night are "gossip" and "lies."
Variety reporter Ramin Setoodeh, who confirmed with Speakeasy that he was seated two tables away within clear line of sight of White, published a firsthand account of the film critic saying, "You're an embarrassing doorman and garbage man." Audio of the event was posted on the Film Society of Lincoln Center's website, and disturbances can be heard at around 6:39 and 7:43.
"I will state for the record: I never said those things," White told Speakeasy. "I was talking among my friends, having a private conversation." White said he wasn't contacted by many of the media outlets that published the account, calling it "purely bad journalism." "They don't get a name; they don't get a source; they don't get direct attribution."
White said he believed Slate film critic Dana Stevens, who was seated at his table that night, to be the source of Variety's initial piece. Stevens denied this, and Variety confirmed her account. "The Variety story broke at like one in the morning the night of the awards," she said, at which point she was talking with a friend about the incident. "I had no idea it would be a news story at that point. I just thought this was going to be gossip the next day."
Stevens said she couldn't attribute any specific comment to White. "It was definitely members of his party," she said, estimating his group to include six people. "I think it was more the younger guys that were with him."
White wouldn't discuss his friends, saying that they "are adults." He disputed other firsthand accounts, including a Vanity Fair piece that reported him as saying, "White liberal bullsh–!" White said the reporter "didn't see my mouth move and form those words. If she's sitting behind me, how could she?"
Katey Rich, who reported the piece for Vanity Fair, stands by her account. "I was sitting behind him, but I could see his body language, I could hear everything that was being said for sure," she told Speakeasy. "Through the power of visual body movement syncing up with audio," she said she felt confident about what she heard and who said it.
New York Film Critics Circle chairman Joshua Rothkopf issued an apology about the alleged incident. He wrote: "I apologize sincerely for the crass bit of heckling Mr. McQueen encountered. I'm mortified to learn that this was from one of our own members. We are taking disciplinary action."
White said Rothkopf never contacted him, saying "he issued that apology without ever coming to me to find out whether or not I actually did say those things." Rothkopf couldn't be reached for comment.
White panned McQueen's "12 Years a Slave," which received Golden Globe nominations for almost all the major categories for which it qualified. "I have no need to heckle Steve McQueen because I wrote what I wrote, and he knows what I wrote," said White. "So I don't need to repeat it for him or to him."
Representatives for McQueen had no comment.
White attributes the controversy that sometimes seems to follow him to "intellectual jealousy." "I am a trained film scholar and know my stuff, and most people who write criticism these days can't claim that and they are bothered when I state my opinion with some conviction," he said. "A critic's job is not to promote movies, a critic's job is to critique and to analyze, and people like the word contrarian because they don't believe in criticism anymore. That's how our culture has declined."

Re: PS3 Media Server for dummies / tutorial howto documenta
by meskibob » Fri Nov 05, 2010 1:09 pm
Problem: During remuxed or transcoded video playback your video either skips sections of the movie (forward or back) or the video crashes entirely. When you check the debug.log file, you find the phrase "Not enough memory", "OutOfMemory" or "Cannot grow buffer size from 50.000.000 bytes to ... bytes.".
PMS is exceeding the available Java heap memory allocated when PMS starts. Newer versions of PMS handle this error by half-ing the transcode buffer (sometimes leading to skips or crashes depending on the renderer) while older versions just let the video crash.
The heap is the sum of the transcode buffer memory plus all of the overhead memory (the actual PMS application, media library, iTunes support, Radio plugin, etc), and the overhead memory can grow quite a bit if the "extra" features (iTunes, Radio plugin, etc) are enabled.
The quick solution is just decrease the size of the transcode buffer or disable some of the extra features. How much you need to decrease or what features depends on your system and may require some basic guess and check.
However, if you need the larger transcode buffer (better playback) or the extra features (or just want to better manage the memory on your system), then you need to increase the available heap size.
Locate the file "PMS.bat" (Windows), "PMS.sh" (Linux) or "/Applications/PS3 Media Server.app/Contents/Info.plist" (Mac OS X) and open it in a text editor
Modify the "-Xmx768M" value - http://blog.paulgu.com/2008/07/19/6-com ... heap-size/
Save and close the file
For Windows/Linux, you should now launch PMS using the modified bat/sh file. For Mac OS X, you can launch the application as normal.
Note: this will obviously take up more of your RAM, so make sure you set a value appropriate for your system
Example values (courtesy of Coltaine79 and ExSport):
32-bit JVM on a 64-bit machine with 4+ GB of RAM can safely use a heapsize value of 1536 with a 400MB PMS buffer and a few of the larger plugins enabled.
32-bit JVM on a 32-bit machine with 4 GB of RAM should at most use a heapsize value of 1200
How to Change the Heap Size If Installed as a Windows Service: (thanks lightglitch)
Locate the wrapper.conf (Windows) at win32\service
Modify the line:
# Maximum Java Heap Size (in MB)
Save and close the file
Launch PMS using the service

I have more than 4G so I changed this to 1200M. I was getting the error stated.
I have i7 3.2Ghz with 6gbRAM
I installed Avisynth just to see if that would fix the skipping, no luck.
I am still getting the error (attached and settings are attached).
All settings are the same as they were before I had to format my drive due to hacked product key. At that time the streaming worked flawlessly. I didn't change any values before (except the transcode max buffer) which is on max as it was before.

Quote: The benefits of research: Follow the money and more
Determining the effects of university research on a regional economy is a complicated task. According to economist Charney, one necessary and fairly obvious first step is to follow the direct effects of money invested in research as it flows through a university and into the local economy. The university pays staff, purchases equipment, hires consultants. Well-documented multiplier effects follow, as they would whenever money is injected into an economy. Charney cites a 2003 study that estimates that $10 million in research spending in Arizona creates 334.5 jobs, $8.65 million in wages, $452,000 in state revenue, and $13.5 million in sales.
But this "follow the money" exercise reveals only part of the picture, according to Charney. University research produces other financial rewards for a region: royalties, start-up companies, new technologies, training of new scientists. And a strong university-based research program can have indirect effects on private firms in a region.
"There is additional research that goes on in the private sector when there is a robust university research program nearby," Charney said. "There are more business start-ups near a university. When people who are technically trained start businesses, the businesses grow faster."
Spin-off firms can have a big effect on a regional economy, according to the report, which cites a 2005 study of spin-offs at the University of Utah. The Utah analysis identified 62 firms that could be traced directly back to the university's research labs. These firms employed nearly 5,000 people and paid $223.2 million in wages.
Hoffman takes another approach to gauging the effect of university research. He examines income growth in metropolitan areas around university research centers and compares it to income growth in areas that do not have university research. He gathered data for small metropolitan areas with university research -- such as Ann Arbor, Michigan; Pullman, Washington; and Bloomington, Indiana -- as well as areas that are similar in size and but without a research institution. Comparing research and non-research areas in the same states, Hoffman found that income growth was markedly higher in the areas around research centers.
"The results reveal that research university cities experience growth trajectories that outstrip that of comparable cities without research universities." Hoffman said.

BERKELEY -- Cal's offensive struggles have produced some ghastly statistics.
The Golden Bears have allowed 25 sacks and run 43 total plays that have resulted in negative yardage. Both figures rank last nationally among all 124 Football Bowl Subdivision teams.
They also explain why too often Cal faces third down and long yardage situations that lead to the offense coming off the field. Cal ranks 108th nationally in third-down success, converting just 30 percent.
For the Golden Bears (1-4, 0-2 Pac-12), who face No. 25 UCLA (4-1, 1-1) on Saturday at Memorial Stadium, it's a vicious cycle with no easy solutions.
"If you're in third-and-4, you can throw quick passes," Cal coach Jeff Tedford said, when asked about giving the defense less time to get to quarterback Zach Maynard. "But if you're in third-and-12 and you throw a 4- or 5-yard pass, then it's 'Coach, what are you doing throwing a 5-yard pass when it's third-and-12?' "
The third-down woes have their roots in first-down failures.
Tedford said teams expect to gain 31/2 to 4 yards on first down. Asked how often a wasted first down is acceptable, Tedford said, "Not very often."
But against USC and Arizona State the past two weeks, Cal ran 59 first-down plays and 33 of them resulted in gains of 2 yards or less.
Sacks, incompletions and penalties contributed to that total, but there also were 10 running plays that gained no more than 1 yard.
Tedford vowed to make one change this week that could provide a spark: sophomore Brendan Bigelow, who had touchdown runs of 81 and 59 yards at Ohio State, will get the ball.
Bigelow is averaging 20.6 yards on his 10 carries this season, but he isn't adept at the entire playbook and didn't touch the ball in Saturday's 27-17 loss to ASU. His eight carries vs. Ohio State and USC produced seven first downs or touchdowns.
Tedford said he and running backs coach Ron Gould agree they will get the Bears' fastest back into the game against UCLA. "I don't know an exact number (of carries), but we need to get him in there and let him get going," Tedford said.
Still, no single player will fix the Bears' offensive woes.
Tedford reiterated the sacks problem is the responsibility of everyone on offense, including sometimes Maynard.
Maynard often steps up in the pocket as his linemen push the pass rush around and behind him. But if he then moves laterally outside the pocket he becomes vulnerable. "They circle back around," Tedford said, "and they're in his blind spot. That's happened numerous times."
"I'm miserable, I can't stand it. There's nothing worse right now," he said. "We talked today about taking control, attacking this thing and not feeling sorry for ourselves because that's not going to get us anywhere."
Senior running back C.J. Anderson said the Bears are moving forward. "No one expected to be 1-4 right now," Anderson said. "It's a fresh month of October. We're flushing the month of September."

EDITORIAL: Give Westboro Baptist Church permits and ignore them
Published: Tuesday, May 7, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, May 6, 2013 at 11:04 p.m.
Hasn't Ole Miss suffered enough.
The University of Mississippi's football team has been the Southeastern Conference's cellar dweller for much of the four decades since John Vaught retired from coaching. And now Westboro Baptist Church says it will come to Oxford, Miss., to protest. The fanatical group says the University of Mississippi has turned football into an idol. The group usually claims God's wrath is being visited on the recipients of their protests. Some Ole Miss fans might actually agree.
Oh yes, they're supposedly coming here, too — the Westboro gang, not the Rebels. Despite the championship pennants flying in a stadium that seats more than 100,000, the bronze statues of coaches and the handprints in the concrete, they aren't claiming we're too carried away with football here in Tuscaloosa. Nope, Westboro wants to tell Tuscalooa residents that they felt God's wrath on April 27, 2011, when a tornado plowed through town.
Anybody who was here that day knows that the tornado was real wrath of God kind of stuff. The evidence lies in the loss of loved ones and property. But assigning a motive to the Almighty is just a shade tricky. Self-appointed spokesmen ought to consider that Christians believe there is a day of reckoning for all.
But be that as it may, this little group of folks from a small Kansas town claim to have intimate knowledge of God's purposes. They go around the country telling everybody else to repent. They claim soldiers die and hurricanes destroy cities because our country is too tolerant of homosexuality.
We have no idea what they would say if a twister were to destroy one of their members' houses or even their church building. And frankly most of us wouldn't really care what they said because those with the slightest passing knowledge of Christian theology would know exactly how flawed their claims are.
The truth is that the Westboro group thrives on conflict. They want people to push back so they say the most outlandish, obnoxious and offensive things they can possibly think of. They touch people on that raw nerve and stick their collective chin out hoping that a punch will land on it.
Anybody who really wants to stick it to Westboro Baptist Church protesters should simply ignore them, denying them the conflict they crave and the attention that comes with it. Local officials should do nothing to hinder their protest. Anybody who wants to gawk or counter-protest should feel free but for the life of us, we can't figure out why anyone would.
The news media will cover the protest, as they should. The presence of a controversial group in town warrants that. But any attempt to interfere with its constitutional right to even the most deplorable speech would be a mistake.
Local officials should give the members permits. Give them milk and cookies ,for all we care. The less resistance it meets, the sooner the church members will be on their way.

When I consider what I like most about cats, I'd probably say it's their
mysterious demeanor. I never know why one of my cats will suddenly pounce on my
computer keyboard, why another might hide for hours on Wednesdays, or what could
possibly be going on inside the head of one who spends time shadow boxing in my
bathroom. Just as their motivations and desires remain secret to us, they are
also, unfortunately, masters at concealing any illnesses they might have. A cat
can have a medical problem and even the most watchful owner may not realize it
until the condition becomes full-blown.
An unhealthy heart is an all too common feline problem, regardless of age.
The good news is that heart conditions are best treated when found early.
Additionally, early detection and treatment also give felines opportunities to
live relatively healthy and happy lives. All you have to do is be proactive by
routinely giving your cat a quick home-health examination. Don't worry – it's
easy, fun and can even save a life. More...
Peeing outside the litter box, otherwise known as feline inappropriate
elimination, is one of the most frustrating and common behavioral problems some
cat lovers must endure. Feline inappropriate elimination refers to the location
of the deed, and it is considered inappropriate by most cat owners because
peeing on the bed, the rug, the curtains, the tile, the laundry or anywhere
outside of the litter box is not considered appropriate!
What many cat guardians may not know is that urinating outside the litter
box, or defecating for that matter, is a message from your cat. Cats have a
natural inclination toward sand. They prefer to dig in the soil before they
eliminate: that is why litter boxes are so effective, even in young kittens.
Cats do not naturally choose flat, hard, or cloth-like surfaces, and they do not
eliminate outside the litter box out of meanness or spite. Your cat is, in
essence, letting you know that something is wrong and is asking for help. More...
We are so pleased to bring you the news that The Dr. Jane's HealthyPetNet Foundation
has granted a financial award to Golden Rescue South Florida. This award will be
used to help rescued Golden Retrievers receive the veterinary treatment they need
and deserve.
The dedicated people at Golden Rescue South Florida truly have a heart of gold.
They believe that all animals are part of a sacred creation and should never be
treated as "commodities, things or garbage". They are a can-do group of people and
work tirelessly to improve the lives of Goldens and other rescued dogs. More...
If you're like most people, you are probably wondering, "What are essential
fatty acids?" Or, "How could something with the word 'fat' in it be good for
me?" The short answer is essential fatty acids (or EFA's) are essential because
our bodies alone cannot produce them – they must be obtained through our diet.
EFA's are long molecules that are used in the construction of the walls of our
cells, known as the cell membranes. The cell membranes are critical for both
nutritional processes and the excretion of toxic waste products. Without EFA's,
the body cannot make or repair cell membranes correctly. EFA's also regulate
bodily functions such as blood pressure, clotting, fertility, heart rate and
immunity. For these reasons, they are often referred to as "good fats".
Now that you know a little more about essential fatty acids, you may wonder,
"Are there different types of EFA's?" And if so, "What are the differences?" More...
There seems to be a lot of confusion out there as to the best sources of
omega-3 fatty acids. This article will break down the major sources of omega-3's
and give you the information you need to make educated choices.
First, there are three main types of omega-3 fatty acids: DHA, EPA and ALA.
DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (Eicosapentaenoic acid) are found in fish and
ALA (alpha-linolenic acid ) is found in plants like flaxseed. When you choose an
omega-3 source, we suggest that you select a healthy balance of all fatty acids,
but make sure you are getting enough EPA and DHA, as these fatty acids are
responsible for the majority of the health benefits of omega-3's.
This is important to remember: if a food or supplement states it is high in
omega-3, it does not necessarily mean it is high in EPA and DHA. For example,
although flaxseed oil is six times richer than most fish oils in omega-3's,
flaxseed oil contains mainly ALA, not DHA and EPA. Unfortunately, our bodies can
only convert ALA into DHA and EPA in very small amounts. Scientific studies have
revealed that fatty acids from fish or fish oil, but not flaxseed oil, benefited
patients with cardiovascular disease and ADHD. More...

Man charged with stealing, forging elderly man's checks
Published: Friday, March 28, 2014 at 4:56 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 28, 2014 at 4:56 p.m.
A Hendersonville man has been charged with forgery and misdemeanor larceny after detectives say he stole and forged checks belonging to an elderly Catholic priest.
Daniel Lind, 43, of Bee Hive View Lane, Hendersonville, was arrested and charged with 14 felony counts of forgery of an endorsement, 14 felony counts of uttering a forged instrument and one count of misdemeanor larceny. From staff report
The Henderson County Sheriff's Office began an investigation after a complaint was received from the victim's family concerning stolen and forged checks.
Lind is accused of befriending the elderly man, a Catholic priest, and offering to take care his cat after a fall and broken hip required relocation out of state with family members during a period of convalescence, the Sheriff's Office said in a news release Friday.
During this time, Lind was alleged to have stolen a book of checks, forged them and cashed a total $5,750 on the account, the release says.
Lind is currently incarcerated in the Henderson County Detention Facility in lieu of $42,500 bond.

I hate having to sit at home to "recover" blah! But gotta do it so I'll be ready for the season :) well Q did a video interview with the newest member of the team Janae Lyde who is a sophomore Texas Southern transfer! So far, from what I've seen of her, she is a pretty chill, laid back person and super quiet lol which is to be expected from the newcomers. I haven't had the opportunity to actually sit down and chat with her one-on-one just yet, but that time will come once I'm healthy again :) Big shout out to Q for helping me out on this week's final newcomers blog! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->

Energy Secretary Chu Applauds World's First All-Renewable Power Plant in Nevada
As part of the Obama Administration's all-out, all-of-the-above approach to American energy, the Energy Department today recognized the dedication of the world's first geothermal-solar power plant in Fallon, Nevada. The Stillwater geothermal project, which received $40 million in tax support under the Recovery Act, has harnessed innovative technologies to add solar energy to the facility and provide 59 megawatts (MW) of combined capacity to power more than 50,000 local homes.
"As the first of its kind in the world, this project demonstrates how we can tap renewable energy sources to provide clean power for American families and businesses and deploy every available source of American energy," said Energy Secretary Steven Chu. "Supported in part by the Recovery Act, the Fallon facility is expanding domestic renewable energy sources and helping to build the infrastructure we need to stay competitive in the global race for clean energy technologies."
The Stillwater plant is advancing local economic growth, diversifying the nation's energy mix and reducing pollution. The project was supported under the 1603 tax program for renewable energy that provided American companies with tax support up front to spur the deployment of clean, renewable energy resources, like geothermal and solar. A recent study by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory that examined the economic benefit of the program, estimated that it has created up to 75,000 jobs nationwide in design, construction and manufacturing and $44 billion in total economic output.
Currently, utilities often use renewable energy sources like solar power during hours of peak consumer demand, and combine it with a "baseload" coal or natural gas plant to ensure a steady power supply. The Stillwater facility combines 26 MW of photovoltaic solar generating capacity with 33 MW of baseload geothermal power, demonstrating how a single power plant can deliver renewable peak and baseload power to American homes, businesses, and whole communities. To provide the solar energy, Enel Green Power North America (EGP) installed more than 89,000 polycrystalline photovoltaic panels on a 240-acre parcel of land adjacent to the Stillwater geothermal plant, which opened in 2009.
Early investment by the Energy Department accelerated geothermal development at sites across Nevada and Utah, including those in the Stillwater area. Of the fourteen areas, including Stillwater, studied under the Energy Department's research program, seven currently produce electrical power. The research also helped utilities better judge the viability of specific geothermal systems as reliable energy sources and gave the financial sector reliable information for investing in these developing projects.
The Energy Department's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy accelerates development and facilitates deployment of renewable energy technologies. Learn more about EERE's work with geothermal and solar energy solutions.

OAKLAND -- Raiders coach Dennis Allen went back and forth on whether to play Terrelle Pryor against Washington until finally reaching a decision the night before Sunday's game.
Allen said he chose to err on the side of "extreme caution" in defending his decision Sunday after a 24-14 loss at O.co Coliseum.
"We were actually at a point where we were ready to go with Terrelle," Allen said. "We visited with him one more time with the doctors, and we just didn't feel good about letting him play. It just wasn't the right thing to do, and we wanted to make sure we did right by him."
As to whether Pryor will be available to face the San Diego Chargers in a week, Allen said: "I'm very hopeful. We were at the point where we were about ready to say, 'He's got it,' but we just didn't feel comfortable going ahead and letting him play."
Free safety Charles Woodson said players know the deal when it comes to concussions.
"We understand that they had to go through the proper protocol with Terrelle, and as a team, we've got to rally behind whoever's behind center," Woodson said. "It doesn't matter who it is. We've got to try to come up with a win."
Allen had no information on how long running back Darren McFadden (hamstring) or fullback Marcel Reece (knee) might be out, although it's believed Reece's injury is the more serious of the two.
Jennings also ran 15 times for 45 yards and caught eight passes for 71 yards, on one play catching a short pass behind the line of scrimmage and breaking two tackles for a first down on the Raiders' lone scoring drive.
"You always have to see yourself as the guy," Jennings said. "Wherever they put me, wherever they need me, I'll do what I can to help us win games."
"We have to get more comfortable still with that duo," Allen said. "It's a 52-yarder off the dirt, but any time he misses it's a concern."
Houston's penalty negated a potential fumble by Washington quarterback Robert Griffin III.
"It was fourth-and-inches, and we have to be able to make inches," Allen said.

Williamstown residents take pride in park
July 29, 2013
WILLIAMSTOWN — There is very little that Tomlinson Park-goers would change about their idyllic oasis in the middle of Williamstown....
Back in the late 1950's and early 1960's,my Grandmother and Grandfather from Waverly,WVA would on a nice spring,summer or fall day gather wooden sticks, make homemade half runner beans, home made potato salad, homemade cole slaw, chopped onions,mustard,ketschup,mayo, a thermas of ice tea.and marshmallows and hot dog and hamburger buns and go over to the park with my grandparents,Aunt Helen,sister Debra and brother Junior for a weiner and hamburger roast. Those long ago days are memorable and I will cherish as long as am able.

- The female red junglefowl is leaner than tame hens.
- The only things living were a sow, her piglets, and some hens scratching in the dirt.
- Shot over a five-year period, the programme reveals secret glimpses into the ordinary, everyday life of cattle, sheep, hens and wildlife on the Cotswold slopes.
- Children will also delight in the baby piglets, kittens, ducks, and hens that roam free.
- Pan-roasted guinea hen, golden as the duck, is sparked by a sauce of tomato and lovage.

- Down below me in a shallow margin I watched a ragged hen salmon, bursting with eggs, preparing to spawn with a huge cock fish that had a kype like a fist and a tail like a shovel.
- It went into the 'fish bank' - a cage in the river where the best hens are kept for breeding at the end of the season.
as rare (or scarce) as hen's teeth
- Extremely rare.Oraciones de ejemplo
- She acknowledged the existence of differences between men and women, but argued that the reason 'women are as scarce as hen's teeth' in academia is due to discrimination.
- In Australia (where I'm from) these units are as scarce as hen's teeth.
- Good, dedicated filing clerks are as rare as hen's teeth.
Old English henn, of Germanic origin; related to Dutch hen and German Henne.
Ultimately the word hen is related to Latin canere 'to sing'. Apart from singing hens, what could be rarer than hen's teeth? Hens do not have teeth, so to describe something as as rare as hen's teeth is tantamount to saying that it is non-existent. The phrase was originally used in the USA during the mid 19th century. The henpecked husband has long been a staple of comedies and seaside postcards, and the word goes back to The Genuine Remains (1680) by Samuel Butler. The expression comes from the way that hens will sometimes peck at the feathers of other birds.

Why Apple May Be Cutting Orders for iPhone 5 Parts
The Wall Street Journal reports today that Apple is cutting its orders for parts for the iPhone 5 amid "weaker-than-expected demand."
The news comes amid the near-meteoric rise of Samsung as Apple's most prominent competitor, and the rise of Android — Google mobile operating system — as a viable and often cheaper alternative to the iPhone.
So why is Apple cutting orders for its iPhone 5? As we wait for more details to emerge, here are a few theories from industry observers:
- Apple might have over-ramped its supply orders. Front-end demand for Apple products is usually massive, and Apple might have overcompensated for it. The iPhone 5 is already expensive to produce, so scaling back would make sense as demand slowly levels off for the new iPhone.
- There could be supply issues. The iPhone production process has led to some delays in shipping the phone, and this could still be a lingering problem.
- The less-expensive iPhone 4 and 4S is eating into iPhone 5 sales. With a two-year contract, the iPhone 4 is free and the iPhone 4S is $99, and they might be popular enough among consumers that not everyone is opting for the iPhone 5, which costs $199 with a two-year contract in the U.S.
- Consumers are waiting for the next iPhone. The rumor mill is already spinning for the next version, and Apple CEO Tim Cook has noted on Apple's earnings calls that rumors have the capability of depressing near-term sales numbers as consumers wait for new products. At the time: "It's clear customers delayed purchase of a new tablet because of product rumors. Some of that was anticipated and some of it I wish wouldn't occur, but it did occur."
Analysts continue to cite multiple explanations for a potential trim to orders unrelated to demand, including the ebb of flow of Apple's supply chain and a strong holiday quarter.
Brian Blair, an analyst with Wedge Partners, says order cuts are typical after the holidays. He also noted that Apple uses multiple suppliers for individual parts making across the board cuts difficult to assess.
He estimates that Apple sold 50 million iPhones during the quarter, ahead of average analyst estimates around 47 million.
There is no question that Apple is facing greater competition in the smartphone market. Here are a few numbers to chew on: In 3Q 2012, Apple had 14.6% of world-wide smartphone shipments, down from a peak of 23% in 4Q of 2011, according to IDC. Samsung's share rose to 31.3% in the third quarter of 2012, compared with 8.8% in the third quarter of 2010.
Samsung, over the weekend, posted a photo to Flickr that said the company had sold 100 million phones in its Galaxy S line "from the supply side," which is its main competitor to the iPhone. The Galaxy S III is considered by many to be the first major competition for the iPhone.
For now, all we have to work with is "weaker-than-expected demand." We'll find out more about iPhone sales on Jan. 23 when Apple delivers its earnings.
But it's clear that Apple is facing increasing competition, leading it to possibly entering additional markets.
Earlier reports suggest that Apple is working on a less-expensive iPhone. One possible model is that the device will have a polycarbonate plastic shell, compared to the aluminum body of the iPhone 5. That could help it crack into a market that's been long-held by Android and other cheaper smartphones.
Apple's iPhones are very expensive without the carrier subsidies. While the iPhone 4 is now free with a two-year contract and the iPhone 4S is $99, without a contract the devices are still hundreds of dollars. The iPhone 4 without a contract, a phone two generations old, for example, costs $450 on Apple's store. An iPhone 5 starts at $649 without a contract.
If Apple no longer holds complete dominance over the upper-tier smartphone market, it has to crack into other areas of the market that it doesn't already have a large presence, like emerging markets and cheaper markets where subsidies aren't as common.
This is a spot that Google's Android excels in. Google's flagship Android phone, the Nexus 4, for example costs $300 for its cheapest model . This helps Google snap up market share in places where subsidies aren't as widely used

Welcome to Mass Communications, the most exciting program at Lindenwood.
We recognized that attending an institution can have it stressful moments and occasionally leave you a bit confused. Most questions students pose fall into one of three categories: academic, financial, student life (dorms). Professors and Academic Advisors are not the best source of information for your university financial questions or you campus living facility. For the issues with these areas, please contact either the Business Office or Student Life. For academic questions, the best place to start is with your Academic Advisor.
The most definitive source for everything "Lindenwood" is the catalog and the Student Handbook . (When referring to the catalog, make sure you are reading the one that was issued the year you started at Lindenwood.) Here are students' most frequently asked questions.
How to I know who my Academic Advisor is?
Your Academic Advisor should be listed in your student portal. This person is your "go-to" guide for your educational queries. Most likely, your advisor is a fulltime faculty person who teaches in your major. Academic Services can help you track down this information. See our list of School of Communications faculty for additional questions.
How do I know what courses I'm supposed to take to complete my degree?
As you make your way through our School of Communications programs, you should always reference your course catalog. In addition, we have created Program Planning Guides that corresponds with the catalog year you enrolled at Lindenwood University. You'll frequently hear communications faculty refer to these guides as "bingo sheets." Your Academic Advisor can provide you with one or you can find them here, or on the shared PC Common drive. Look for the folder called, "Program Planning Guides." As a general rule, students will meet with their advisors twice a year to select courses for the upcoming semester. You will not be able to register for courses online without first meeting with your academic advisor. Your advisor must "unlock your student portal."
How can I change advisors and officially declare a new major or minor?
If you wish to change advisors, you will need to pick up a "Change of Advisor" form from the Academic Services department, located in the basement of Roemer Hall. Visit your new advisor for his or her signature. A signature from your previous advisor is not necessary.
When do I register for classes?
Great question, we're glad you're thinking ahead! Students register for the upcoming semester's classes according to predetermined dates noted in the Academic Calendar. Your registration date depends on how many credit hours you have earned at the end of your last "completed" semester. Class designations are: freshmen = 0-23 credit hours, sophomores = 24-53 credit hours, juniors = 54-83 credit hours, seniors = 84 credit hours and above.
How can I add or drop a class?
Scheduling classes can be the most stressful task students worry about besides taking exams. Your first step should be checking the Academic Calendar for important add/drop deadlines. Then, consult with your academic advisor to ensure you are on the right track with course planning. The ability to add or drop a course online via your portal isn't always an option. If the online schedule change window has closed, then you will need an "Add/Drop" form signed by your advisor. You can find those forms in Academic Services, located in the basement of Roemer Hall. Depending on when you are dropping the course, you may need the signature of the course's instructor. See the academic calendar. You will always need your advisor's signature on the "Add/Drop" form.
I'd like to get involved in campus media, who do I contact?
Now, you're talking. Getting involved with our campus media is the quickest way to gain a competitive edge in the media world. We welcome your involvement at any grade level. Any of our fulltime faculty can point you in the right direction. Check out the possibilities

Energy Star Program Tightens Requirements for Computers
The Energy Star program has stiffened its requirements for computers that carry the Energy Star label. As of July 20th, computers must meet strict energy-use criteria in three operating modes: while in use, in sleep mode, and when turned off (in standby mode). To ensure these modes are actually used, all products must be shipped with the display set to go to sleep mode when inactive for 15 minutes or less, and with the computer set to go to sleep mode when inactive for 30 minutes or less (desktop-derived servers are exempt from the latter requirement). Computers must also employ more energy-efficient internal and external power supplies. The new specifications apply to a wide variety of products, including desktop and laptop computers, integrated computer systems (desktop systems in which the computer and display receive their power from one cord), desktop-derived servers, workstations, and game consoles. The Energy Star is a joint program of DOE and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
As noted on the Energy Star Web site, only the most energy-efficient computers will meet the new specifications, so consumers can initially expect to see fewer computer models bearing the Energy Star label. The site currently lists 118 products that meet the new criteria, but most are laptop computers, which have always been designed for energy efficiency in order to extend their battery life. Only eight models of desktop computers and two integrated computers are currently included on the list. But as manufacturers adjust to the new computer criteria, the new Energy Star-qualified computers are expected to save consumers and businesses more than $1.8 billion in energy costs over the next 5 years and prevent greenhouse gas emissions equal to the annual emissions of 2.7 million vehicles. See the announcement, the qualified product list (Excel 39 KB), the key criteria, and the full criteria (PDF 257 KB). Download Adobe Reader.

For whatever reason, I felt like doing this one liveblog style. So tonight's recap is timestamped and called as I saw it.
- It's hard to not start every one of these Babcock bullets with "I love everything this man says", but it's just so true. The latest great quip from our falcon-faced leader came during the pregame, on line combinations: "As a coach, if you win every night, you're in control. If your a player and play good every night with your line mates, then you're in control and you get to play with those line mates. But if it doesn't go as good, then the coach is in control and he moves you around." I don't know. It's such a simple concept and not at all controversial or anything, but when it's Babcock saying it, it sounds like something read off of a stone tablet.
- This reminds me: Am I the only one who watches the pregame shows even on DVR? Even if I'm getting home late and watching the game at like 4 am, it feels too weird to just zip right to the opening face off.
- 20:00 -- Joe. Zay. Theodore. Man, my day just brightens up when this guy is in goal. He comes in with a 1-2-0 record, a mouthwatering 3.02 GAA, and a .909 saves %. Which translated across a season in which he only plays the Wings equates to a negative-7-32-0 record, a goals against average of Samuel L. Jackson saying, "This is some fucked up repugnant shit" and a saves percentage of this.
- 17:45 -- Speaking of those combinations: I know I'm not the only one that thinks, "Poor old Homer" whenever I see his goofy face not on the top line.
- 16:30 -- Another very good example for Babs to never contemplate splitting Hank and Pav up. Datsyuk left a drop pass for Nick coming down the slot and he just missed a goal, but the pass from Z to Pav from the boards on the left side was a thing of beauty. His head was up the whole way waiting for that play to develop.
- 15:38 -- Eric Nystrom darts for the net and ends up plowing through Jimmy Howard at about 75 mph, no penalty. Jimmy gives him a shove. Nystrom thanks Jimmy for bracing his fall with his doughy 1-pack abs.
- 13:15 -- The "NHL's best power play" belongs to the Minnesota Wild? How long has this been going on? And Cal Clutterbuck is leading the team in goals? Who is allowing this to happen? Jesus, I need Center Ice.
- 11:44 -- A screen by Nystrom and 13 other players helps Brent Burns to a goal. 1-0 Wild.
- 7:03 -- Minnesota is playing trap hockey with a 1 goal lead and 47 minutes to go in the game.
- 0:00 -- Rusty Salei was your 1st intermission interview. I'll sum it up:
- Keating: "How important is it to stay out of the penalty box against this team?"
- Salei: "Well it's very important to stay 5-on-5. But I also likes savings the money, with DirecTV's five months free televisions package."
- 20:00 -- Legit laugh out loud moment from Ken Daniels, as he and Mick pimp the Lions game for this Sunday: "Hang with 'em everybody, come on," said Mick. Ken retorts, " 'Hanging' might be the operative term there." Ken Daniels, once again for the record, implied that the Detroit Lions are so bad that fans want to hang themselves.
- 18:35 -- I hang myself after Cal Clutterbuck banks in a goal to make it 2-0.
- 18:35 -- Mick somehow questions whether the goal was good, even though there is zero evidence that the puck went under the net, leading me to wonder if he's even watching the same game. Oh, whoops. He's actually watching a the 1951 No Helmets / Wood Sticks / Say 'No' to New Taxes Heritage Classic game taking place in his own head.
- 16:23 -- What the fuck is this ad in the corner of my TV? "Dr. Richard Santucci: Urologist", then a graphic of a doctor slowly pulling down his face mask and crossing his arms like he's trying to intimidate me? Am I actually seeing this? Because if there's one thing you need going into a urology exam, it's definitely the image of a guy with a scary voice saying, "YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT. I'M GONNA BE TOUCHING YOUR PENIS."
- 8:20 -- Wings fail to convert on ages of 5-on-3 time, still 2-0 Minnesota. It's 3 in the morning, I've been sick all week, and I'll willfully admit that I'm staring down the fast forward button on the DVR right now. It's tempting.
- 5:26 -- Describing this won't do it justice, so hopefully you saw it. Tomas Holmstrom skates to a lose puck along the half boards in the Minnesota end. A Wild player is trailing behind him. Then, as only Homer would do, he fakes a gigantic slap pass back to the blue line before blindly backhanding the puck into the corner (whereupon it was immediately intercepted and cleared, of course). Think about this. As if for one second the Wild player would think, "Yeah, he's totally going to rifle a slap shot at his own defenseman standing 15 feet away. I better cover this." I love Homer.
- 4:44 -- The Mule is playing frighteningly tentative.
- 1:00 -- Mick laments against The Trap. Well Mick, it's legal, and it's a good way to beat the Detroit Red Wings.
- 0:33 -- YES ... Darren Helm's first of the year (exclamation point). 2-1 Wild. More 4th line beautifulness, three guys forechecking below the goal line. Obviously a huge goal, coming with a half minute to go in the period. Great set up from Abdelkader, too ...man, does that guy look confident right now.
- 17:43 -- TIE GAME ... Hello, 3rd period. The tentative Mule gets just the break he needs with a lucky goal deflected off of Greg Zanon. It must be said that the power play that this was scored on came from a laaaaaaaaaaaaame ass penalty call on Matt Cullen.
- 16:05 -- Todd Bertuzzi takes his first shot on goal in four weeks. Mitch Albom must be in attendance or something.
- 15:05 -- Patrick EAVES (three exclamation points). 3-2 Wings. I love this sonnuva bitch. It looked so ugly and barely crossed the line in the end, but they all count. Abby won the faceoff that led to this, getting him another assist (If he so much as looks at a goal the right way you can probably count on me commenting on it.)
- 10:24 -- Jonathan Ericsson saves a goal by himself on an open net. It's yet another giant step in the right direction for him. And that direction is directly upward as he tries to regain his 9'8" form from 2009.
- 2:44 -- Really strong move from Mule getting a takeaway behind the Wild net and creating a scoring chance. That was very encouraging.
- 1:23 -- ......And I didn't see that coming. Really didn't, not like sarcastic didn't. 3-3 game. Koivu caught a gift from Jimmy's right pad and buried it. Jimmy is sprawled on the ice in disgust. On comes Overtime.
- 3:32 -- First whistle of OT. The first 1:28 was 100% Red Wings.
- 1:38 -- Wings look like they're playing 4-on-1 hockey.
- 0:41 -- Naturally, the Wild win.
Go Wings.

"Joe Navarro brings together the art and science of nonverbal communications for the business sector with the edge of a former FBI agent and the insight of a world-class observer." (Jack Canfield, co-author of The Success Principles)
"Joe Navarro has spent his professional life studying nonverbal language, and testing those insights in high-stakes environments. We are fortunate that he is willing to share those insights in this marvelous book. It is a must read for anyone in business (and anyone not in business)." (Brian J. Hall, Albert H. Gordon Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School)
"Louder Than Words is proof once again that in reading nonverbals, Joe Navarro is a master." (David Givens, Ph.D., author of Crime Signals and Love Signals)
From the Back Cover
International bestselling author and behavior expert Joe Navarro helps you successfully navigate the business world by understanding what your boss and coworkers are really thinking.
Why is it that some people have all the elements of success—education, skills, integrity, motivation—but can't seem to move from effectiveness to excellence in their careers? Behavior expert Joe Navarro reveals the long-sought answer. Louder Than Words teaches how to master nonverbal intelligence, the ability to interpret and use nonverbal signals—in poker terms, "tells"—in business to assess and influence others.
Drawing on his decades in the behavioral sciences, Navarro shows how to use his simple yet powerful "comfort/discomfort" model to decode what's really being said at meetings, interviews, negotiations, presentations, business meals, and more, including the casual exchanges that often impact decisions and reputations.Jump-start your career as you discover how to:
- Read body language to understand what clients, coworkers, interviewers, or interviewees are thinking, feeling, or intending, and discern nonverbal cues of concern, disagreement, or doubt—even over the phone
- Master the all-important first impression and use settings, seating, and gestures to inspire and captivate
- Recognize habits that send the wrong message, from nail biting to wearing inappropriate attire—and see what posture, work practices, workspaces, and even electronic habits say about people
- Become culturally aware and gender-sensitive, from best handshake practices to personal space preferences
- Learn what the "comfort dividend" can do for you and your business
- Explore how the concept of "curbside appeal" applies to you and your business, and can mean the difference between average and exceptional
Use Louder Than Words to close the deal, keep your customers, secure new ones, and lead your company with confidence. For job seekers looking to stand out from the pack, this book is your get-back-to-work bible.

Valdosta, GA -- Valdosta State made a clean sweep of the Gulf South Conference awards with one player even being honored twice. Head Coach Thomas Macera was named the GSC Coach of the Year for the first time in his career while Alanna Hadley took home the GSC Pitcher of the Year award. Freshman Courtney Albritton has put together such an impressive freshman campaign that not only was she named the GSC Freshman of the Year, but was awarded the GSC Player of the Year as well. Seven other Blazers made All-GSC.
Valdosta State's nine Blazers honored was the league high with seven named to the All-GSC First Team, also a league high. Alabama-Huntsville had seven All-GSC selections with six on the first team while West Alabama had two, both first teamers. Rounding out the second team was North Alabama and West Florida with two picks and Delta State and West Georgia with one each.
The All-GSC First Team Blazers in addition to Hadley and Albritton were second baseman April Hutchens, shortstop Marti Littlefield, third baseman Samantha Posey, outfielder Morgan Johnson and first baseman Natalia Morozova. Catcher Ashley Steinhilber and pitcher Brianna Hancock earned All-GSC Second Team honors.
Hadley earning the GSC Pitcher of the Year award marks the third consecutive season the award comes to Valdosta State with Holly Satterfield winning it the previous two seasons. Hadley took the GSC by storm this season, winning five GSC Pitcher of the Week awards, including four consecutive weeks. Once this season she was even named the National Pitcher of the Week. Hadley lost her first and last starts of the regular season by 1-0 scores, but was unbeatable between those starts, winning 22 consecutive games with three saves. She finished the season with a 0.66 ERA and .164 opponents' batting average. She has 121 strikeouts on the years with 22 complete games and 10 shutouts in 158 innings.
Albritton marks the third Blazer in four seasons to earn the GSC Freshman of the Year award following in the footsteps of Morgan Johnson and Marti Littlefield. Albritton added her own spin to it though, also taking home the GSC Player of the Year award. She was twice named GSC Player of the Week this season and leads the league in runs scored (57). Albritton is also among league leaders in all major offensive statistics including home runs (13, second), RBI (48, third), batting average (.445, second), slugging percentage (.817, second), on-base percentage (.481, sixth), hits (73, second) and doubles (16, third).
Macera earned the GSC's Coach of the Year by leading his team to the regular season title and setting a new league record for consecutive wins (36) and conference wins (26) en route. Valdosta State enters the GSC Tournament with a 44-3 record and has spent the past five weeks as the No. 1 ranked team in the nation. Macera has reached a few individual milestones this season as well, winning his 500th career game and surpassing 300 career victories at Valdosta State while also setting the new mark for career wins at VSU (currently 326).
The All-GSC Blazers along with the rest of the team, led by Macera, will take to the field at 12 p.m. against West Georgia to start the GSC Tournament Friday with a second game against either West Alabama or Delta State at 2:30 p.m. Continue to follow www.vstateblazers.com for updates throughout the GSC Tournament.

Hello there. I have added my dvd as a directory in pms as I have burned many dvd's that contain video's such as avi (xvid/divx) and mkv's. Each dvd contains around 20-24 of these kind of files. When I navigate to this folder on pms, the listing seems to take quite some time and sometimes it does not manage to list all the files. When it does, it only thumbnails a select few (would disabling thumbnail generation help?), while some have the green arrow icon, and the rest come up as "corrupted data". I have to enable and then disable the media server on the ps3 and then try again to at least list all the files that are on the dvd. Playing the files is another story. Even though the ones with the thumbnails mostly play fine, I have to go to the transcode folder if they don't play properly. Pms itself has no problems with these files (copied to the comp and played through pms), I'm wondering if it's because I'm trying to play it from a dvd drive that's the problem (is there a bottleneck? people seem to play dvd iso's fine). Any suggestions? I'd really like to get this working as I've got a ton of vid files burned to dvd.

Tech Tip 04
Coordinate Instantaneous Relays for Power Quality
- Customer Complaints About Momentary Interruptions.
- Frequent Instantaneous Operations on Circuit.
- Many Instantaneous Breaker Operations Associated with Blown Fuses.
- Larger Substation Transformer With Higher Short Circuit Current Capacity.
- Instantaneous Relay Trying to Clear Temporary Faults Before Fuse Blows.
- High Short Circuit Current Blows Fuse Before Breaker Can Open.
- Reduce Causes for Insulation Failures.
- Coordinate Fuses with Breaker Clearing Time.
- Remove Instantaneous Trip from Service.
A warehouse and distribution center complained about too many momentary interruptions. The power would go off and then back on often for no apparent reason. This caused problems for computer inventory systems, file servers, voice mail and etc.
The 12.47kV circuit feeding this customer was short, just two or three miles long. The supply substation had a 30 MVA transformer with about 8,000 amperes of short circuit current available. Most tap line fuses were no larger than about 125 amperes.
The substation log and interruption reports showed that nearly every instantaneous operation at the substation was associated with a blown tap line fuse. There were very few occasions where the instantaneous breaker operation cleared temporary faults without blowing a fuse. A disturbance analyzer confirmed one event where the tap line fuse blew just before the circuit breaker opened. Figure 1 shows the sequence of events.
Figure 1: Fuse Blows Before Breaker Opens
Analysis of the circuit showed it was very difficult for the substation breaker to open before short circuit current damaged tap line fuses. The higher current blew the fuse faster than the breaker's 0.05-0.08 second minimum clearing time. Tap lines near the substation had larger fuses, but even large fuses would blow first. This case suggested removing the instantaneous relay from service and changing the reclosing.
One job for the instantaneous relay is to prevent permanent tap line interruptions for temporary faults such as lightning. The price for this feature is a momentary interruption for all customers on the feeder. Most industrial and large commercial customers today have electronic equipment that shuts down for momentary outages. It has become more desirable to allow tap fuses to blow before the substation circuit breaker trips by removing the instantaneous trip on substation circuit breakers.
It may make sense to retain instantaneous tripping on certain circuits such as circuits supplying mostly residential customers. If an instantaneous trip is kept on a circuit, remember to include the breaker clearing time when coordinating fuses with instantaneous relays. Consider how many permanent tap line interruptions will be prevented against momentary interruptions for the entire circuit. The better solutions consider line protection, fuse coordination, and the number of temporary tap line insulation failures.

BERKELEY -- It could have been a breaking point. Instead, a brief exchange between Cal coach Mike Montgomery and junior guard Allen Crabbe became a turning point, as the Bears rallied from 15 points down to beat USC 76-68 in front of 9,127 fans at Haas Pavilion on Sunday night.
"Just Coach using his way of motivating me," Crabbe said of the incident during a timeout with 16:31 left when Montgomery gave his star player a little shove and yelled, "Do you want to play?"
Just in time, he apparently did. Crabbe scored 10 of his 23 points in the final 4 minutes, 20 seconds, and Cal (16-9, 8-5) battled back from a 61-51 hole to win for the fifth time in the past six games and move into a tie for fourth place in the Pac-12 Conference.
Not surprisingly, both Crabbe and Montgomery downplayed the episode afterward.
"Just spur of the moment," said Crabbe, who was ushered into the tunnel alongside Cal's bench by teammates Justin Cobbs and Richard Solomon, giving him a few moments to calm down.
"It was an emotional game at the time. He was trying to motivate me. Everything's fine. It's under the bridge. He's my coach."
So, it was effective?
"Yeah, obviously," Crabbe said. "He motivated me well."
"It worked, didn't it?" Montgomery said with a grin. "We were standing around. Nobody was ready to play. Allen had come down twice and went to the wrong side of the floor and his guy hit two 3-pointers.
"I was trying to get him going. ... It was probably over-exaggerated."
USC (12-14, 7-6) controlled much of the game, playing the Bears physically and lighting them up with six second-half 3-point baskets.
Cal, down 47-32 when J.T. Terrell hit a 3-pointer with 15:56 left, still seemed destined to lose, entering the final 6 minutes facing a 61-51 hole.
But a steal and layup by Brandon Smith followed by the first of three 3-pointers by Crabbe ignited the Bears and the crowd.
A 3-pointer by Cobbs with 3:32 left gave Cal a 62-61 lead -- its first since midway through the first half -- and back-to-back shots from beyond the arc by Crabbe pushed the margin to 68-64 with 2:06 left.
USC called timeout, and Montgomery used the occasion to wrap his arm around Crabbe's shoulders and give him a little coaching love.
"Allen's my guy," Montgomery said. "I just said, 'A little motivation goes a long way.' I told him I'd do it again. I want to win. I get involved."
Cal outscored USC 25-7 over the final 5:35 of the game to pocket a victory at least as emotion-charged as recent wins over the league's top three teams -- Oregon, Arizona and UCLA.
Cobbs, who scored seven of his 22 points in the final 3:32, claimed he knew all along the Bears would win.
"Allen just got motivated and he took over. You see the results," Cobbs said. "I just told him relax and take over the game for us. That's what he did."
Forward Richard Solomon added 14 points and seven rebounds, and David Kravish contributed 10 points, nine rebounds and three blocked shots.
USC, which had won four straight games and five of eight under interim coach Bob Cantu, got 17 points from Terrell, who didn't even get off the bench when the teams met last month in Los Angeles. Byron Wesley added 16 points, including four second-half 3-pointers, and Jio Fontan also scored 16.
Cantu said the Trojans simply could not contain Crabbe, once he got rolling.
"I think he's the best player in the league," Cantu said. "He's a tremendous talent, and he can always get going. He hit big shots. That's who he is."
Crabbe was all about the bottom line. "We won," he said. "That's all that really matters for us."
Cal (16-9, 8-5 Pac-12) at Oregon (21-5, 10-3), 6 p.m., ESPNU

Could 'Zero Dark Thirty' Boost Obama's Campaign?
Could Kathryn Bigelow's "Zero Dark Thirty" become a player in this year's presidential contest between President Barack Obama and GOP challenger Mitt Romney?
The film isn't scheduled for wide release until December 19, more than a month after the election, but the latest trailer has just hit the web. Co-starring such actors as Jessica Chastain and Kyle Chandler, the new clip makes clear that this is an adventure tale, the story of a seeming impossible mission that pulled off the improbable–taking out terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden.
In the wake of the success of "No Easy Day," a bestselling book about the bin Laden raid by one of the actual members of the elite SEAL team that killed him, another popular depiction of the story could serve to bolster the president by reminding the electorate that it was the Obama administration that accomplished the milestone national security goal when previous administrations had failed.
The movie has already been the subject of some controversy, with some critics asking whether the Defense Department released classified information to Bigelow and writer and producer Mark Boal. A SEAL team planner's name was handed over to the filmmakers, but the Pentagon has said there was no security violation.
On the movie website Comingsoon.net, one user posted "Propaganda film…nothing more." Bill Weir, an ABC Nightline anchor, tweeted that the trailer was "the best campaign ad Obama 2012 didn't have to pay for." Several conservative commentators have also complained that the movie–even thought it's still unreleased–could boost Obama's image.
On Slate's culture blog, Forrest Wickman wrote of the new "Zero Dark Thirty" trailer "Some have accused 'Zero Dark Thirty' of rolling out this fall in order to highlight one of Obama's biggest victories in advance of the election. (The movie will now be released in December, but critics still point to its fall marketing.)" The article concludes "The timing of the film's release is surely an attempt to court a different kind of voter: Those who elect Oscar winners."
Director Bigelow is one of the most critically-acclaimed directors in Hollywood, and became the first woman to win the Oscar for best director for her 2008 movie "The Hurt Locker."
In an Entertainment Weekly interview that's linked to on the movie's official site, Boal said that there's "no political agenda in the film." He added "A lot of people are going to be surprised when they see the film. For example, the president is not depicted in the movie. He's just not in the movie."
Watch the new trailer. What do you think? Leave your thoughts in the comments.

Tapping the Scales of Justice - A Dose of Connecticut Legal History
The Royal Charter of 1662 is one of the earliest and most significant
legal documents in Connecticut history. The Charter, preceded only by
the Fundamental Orders, is the source of the legend of the Charter Oak.
While the Fundamental Orders, prepared by Roger Ludlow and other leaders
of the Colony in 1639, were considered the first constitution; the
Charter was signed by an English king, Charles II, and virtually
guaranteed Connecticut the right to govern itself.
No wonder then that in 1687, King James II intent upon gaining control of all the colonies, revoked the Charter and sent his Agent with an armed troop to seize the document. Here the tale takes a dramatic twist. In a candle lit room, representatives of the Governor and forces of the King gathered to discuss surrender of the Charter. Suddenly the room went dark, and when the candles were lit, the charter that had been on the table was gone, hidden in a white oak tree.
The legend has endured to this day, its significance emphasized by the selection of the Charter Oak for the design of the Connecticut State quarter in 1999. For a narrative of the Charter Oak episode and the nickname "Constitution State" check the web site of the Connecticut Register and Manual.
The Royal Charter can be viewed at the Museum of Connecticut History, framed, it is said, in wood from the Charter Oak Tree.

Alan Suderman and Ben Wieder: Republicans not the only ones benefiting from dark money'
Since the Supreme Court loosened rules on political spending in 2010 in the Citizens United case, the Republican Party, boosted by corporate and billionaire backers, has been painted as the biggest beneficiary. But in New Hampshire and a handful of other states in 2012, Democrats flipped the script.

For fuck's sake, make it all stop. Plagiarizing monster, heartbreaking loon, and dabbling artist Shia LaBeouf now has competition. Actor Jerry O'Connell has apparently started his own art exhibit, #IAMSORRYTOO, next to LaBeouf's #IAMSORRY.
According to LaBeouf's neighbors and frequent visitors at Buzzfeed, O'Connell is currently in situ at 7358 Beverly at the Artspace Warehouse, the gallery next door to the Cohen Gallery where #IAMSORRY is taking place.
The experience at O'Connell's show largely mirrors LaBeouf's. Buzzfeed writer Louis Peitzman describes a similar gallery set up, including a table filled with objects, such as a Blu-ray copy of Stand by Me. However, unlike LaBeouf, O'Connell is not silent when you sit down with him in the room. He wears a paper bag on his head that reads "SUPER FAMOUS" and apparently apologizes "for all the world's ills."
Peitzman tells of his encounter with O'Connell:
I asked for a photo, which he approved. And then disapproved. And then approved again. I snapped a few while he was approving.
O'Connell also told Peitzman it was hot under the bag and he could smell his own breath.
Funny or Die is believed to be behind the O'Connell spoof. They announced the exhibit's opening Wednesday afternoon, but said it would only be for one day only.
LaBeouf will be in his gallery until Sunday.
And no, I'm not going to go see O'Connell. No way.

I build a lot of funny things with plywood on my laser cutter. I used to spend a lot of time creating box joints (you know, the finger-slot-finger-slot thingies that are somewhat difficult to glue, but hold great thanks to the huge surface). Not any longer thanks to the QCAD script I wrote (isn't scriptable software great?).
This script adds a Box Joint icon in the Draw/Line menu and the tool box. The shortcut is L,J. The tool works with two clicks, one where you start the box joint, and the second one where it ends (just try it, you'll see). Box joints are the same forward and backward, and for the slots. So if you do select points with the same distance for both ends of a workpiece, the pieces will mesh just fine.
Just as a hint: when joining two sides at a 90 deg angle, just create the box joint from corner to corner. If you plan a top or bottom plate as well, the box joint should start and end at the corner plus the thickness of the top and bottom (I guess I have to make a video - it's hard to put into words).
The License is LGPL 3. Andrew, feel free to put the script on your page if you like it or make it part of QCAD. Although, an even better implementation probably would be an interactive block for the library?!
- Matthias
[Edit from andrew: please note that this script might be outdated. The latest version is available in all newer QCAD installations under Misc > Draw]
