MOREHEAD, Ky -- The North Dakota State men's basketball team held Morehead State to 31 percent from the floor en route to a 69-57 victory on Wednesday night at Johnson Arena.
The Summit League Bison improve to 7-2 on the season, while the Ohio Valley Conference Eagles fall to 4-5 on the year. MSU's loss, in the first-ever meeting between the schools, was just its ninth at home over the past five years.
"We just need to get better as a team," Head Coach Sean Woods said. "I thought we would be further along at this point, but that's obviously not the case. We need to put this one behind us, go back to the drawing board, have a few good practices and get ready for another good opponent on Saturday."
NDSU junior Taylor Braun led the way for the Bison with 23 points on 11-of-12 from the free-throw line. Junior Mike Felt chipped in with nine points off the bench, while junior Marshall Bjorklund grabbed a game-best 11 rebounds.
The Bison held the Eagles to 27 percent shooting in the first half and used a 26-9 run over the final 12 minutes of period to grab a 33-19 lead at the break.
Sophomore Angelo Warner led the Eagles with 14 points and five rebounds. Junior Chad Posthumus scored 13 points off the bench and recorded a team-high nine boards.
The Bison opened second half with a 10-0 run and led 43-19 at the 16:08 mark. NDSU pushed its advantage to 31 points and MSU got no closer than 10 points down the stretch.
North Dakota State shot 42 percent (22-of-52) for the contest, while MSU was limited to just 18-of-59. The Eagles hit only 2-of-17 from three-point range for their second-lowest clip of the campaign.
"You're not going to win many games shooting the way we did tonight," Woods said. "We couldn't throw it in the ocean and we didn't bring the type of defensive intensity we needed to stay in the game. We put together a decent stretch (30-11) at the end of the game, but the hole we dug was just too deep."
Morehead State returns to action when it hosts Missouri Valley Conference foe Indiana State on Saturday at 2 p.m. ET. The game can be seen on OVCDigitalNetwork.com and heard on WIVY-96.3 FM or MSUEagles.com.

I dropped my laptop which was all working with Qcad and our network printers. So now have a new one, its Fedora 20 which has the latest Cups 1.7, but I could get no printers in Qcad 3.4.6
Eventually a tweak to add a /etc/printcap generation to the cups config gave me the local printers, but I can not see the printers on the cups v1.1 server. Other apps are working ok. Unfortunately cups does not store network printers locally, so have no idea how my old laptop was working.
Any suggestions?

About the Book
"[Bass is] the real deal."
—Kathy Reichs
The sixth electrifying forensic mystery by author Jefferson Bass ("a fresh voice in the crime novel arena" —Seattle Post-Intelligencer), The Bone Yard is the most gripping installment yet in the New York Times bestselling Body Farm series. Called away from Tennessee's renowned Body Farm (the real life human decomposition laboratory around which these remarkable thrillers are based), Dr. Bill Brockton discovers the dark side of the Sunshine state when he's called in to investigate human remains found on the grounds of a Florida boys' reform school. Rich in authentic forensic detail and featuring a protagonist as involving as crime fiction's most popular medical examiners—including Patricia Cornwell's Kay Scarpetta, Karin Slaughter's Sara Linton, and Kathy Reichs's star forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan—The Bone Yard is unassailable evidence that this series "just keeps getting better" (Booklist).
The onset of summer brings steamy weather to East Tennessee and the Body Farm, Dr. Bill Brockton's human-decomposition research facility at the University of Tennessee. But even Brockton is about to get more heat than he's bargained for when a former student asks him to help prove that her sister's death was not suicide, but murder.
Brockton's quick consulting trip takes a long, harrowing detour to the Florida panhandle and the ruins of the North Florida Boys' Reformatory, a notorious juvenile detention facility that met a fiery end more than forty years ago. Guided by the discovery of a diary kept by one of the school's young "students," he finds a cluster of shallow graves, all of them containing the bones of boys who met violent deaths. As Brockton and his team close in on the truth, they find skeletons in some surprisingly prominent closets . . . and they learn that the ghosts of the past pose perilous consequences in the present.

SAN JOSE -- Sharks coach Todd McLellan doesn't want to place too great a burden on goaltender Antti Niemi as his team prepares for Game 1 of its opening round Stanley Cup playoff series against the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday night. But Niemi knows what's expected of him.
"I've felt good the whole season. I was able to play pretty consistent," Niemi said Tuesday morning just before the team left for Vancouver. "Of course the goalie is huge in the playoffs, so I have to be sharp."
The Sharks will have a hard time advancing to the second round without a solid performance from Niemi, a Vezina Trophy candidate who started 25 of San Jose's last 26 games and did not lose to the Canucks this year. With Niemi in net, the Sharks won all three meetings with Vancouver. Niemi had a .943 save percentage and a 1.63 goals-against average in those games.
"He's a big part, but every pitcher needs the fielders to produce runs for him," McLellan said. "Does he have to play at the top of his game? Yes. But so do the other 19 guys that dress that night."
The key for Niemi will be duplicating those performances the first two games in Vancouver. Niemi's road record this year is 8-10-2, and obviously the Sharks need to win at least one game in Vancouver if they want to advance.
"He's had a tremendous year," defenseman Dan Boyle said of Niemi, "and you don't win a Stanley Cup without good goaltending."
Vancouver's record is 2-6-2 this season when trailing after one period and 1-9-2 when trailing after two.
"We know they are a good team, and our intensity level was where it needed to be right from the start," Sharks defenseman Brad Stuart said. "If it wasn't, they were going to put a beating on us."

The growth in shyness may be partly due to increased reliance on technology as a means of communicating, leaving people less adept at face to face interaction. As children are increasingly forced off the streets and families become smaller so there are fewer opportunities for unstructured, unsupervised interaction. Finally, automation is replacing human contact in many areas of life from ATMs to the notorious telephone answering services.
This book looks at:
The anthropological and cultural contexts of shyness
Social development and personality
The benefits of shyness such as more committed relationships
How to increase confidence
Dealing with social anxiety
Finding friends and romance
Shyness and longer-lasting psychological problems
©2008 Sheldon Press; (P)2009 Summersdale Publishers Ltd
"This is a good book :)"
This is a good book. I bought many books on this subject and they all seem to be repetitive. This book; especially the second half of it; deals with it in a different way. It teaches HOW to accept your self. Its well written and well narrated.
Plenty of good information and helpful ideas on many topics surrounding shyness. Fantastic narration by Bob Sinfield he is very clear and upbeat in tone which makes it a very easy listen. I would recommend this book.
"More scientific than therapeutic"
If you would like to know how humans evolved and the role of anxiety this is the book for you. However, if you are looking for specific help in overcoming shyness and social anxiety, then this is not. The author is a scientist and the book reflects that. There is much scientific information and it is obviously well researched. It is strong on cold hard facts but short on empathy and actual treatment of the disorders. It is certainly not what I expected.
"The BEST!"
This is the best book I have ever bought. I have got masters in Psychology and can recognize a good book with valuable facts. Shooting voice of the narrator, great lenght , very useful tips, weblinks. This book is encouraging, hope giving, providing a new perspestive and view. The work is up to you tough. Go out there, practice everyday. Your critical voice has been growing and eating you up for years, it will take years to learn a new way, but it's possible. I have listen to the book twice and will again.
Have a renewed interest in books after falling in love with audio books. I am listening to all different genres and exploring different authors.
"Too scientific"
Too much of the science and not enough to help someone overcome shyness. I appreciate the knowledge behind why I am shy -- but does not help me here and now.
"Feel good book for shy and lonely people."
The way author emphases on positive characteristics of shy people.
There is a bunch of simple and practical advices on how to overcome anxiety.
Shy bur not helpless :)
"Good Enough"
About Midway
The "s"s were so harsh I thought my hearing would suffer from listening. My ear actually hurt.
For fiction maybe, for self-help - not a chance.
I was angered by the condescending tone of the narrator and prose. Perhaps if there was a different narrator I wouldn't have found this audiobook so downright offensive.
A lot of thorough research has gone into this book, the author needs to reconsider the tone she writes in.
"Great Info"
This book dug deep into the history of humans and how social requirements started. I think it has a lot of really good information. The reader has a think english accent and pronounces words differently than they are pronounced in the American English language and that can be slightly confusing. All in all good points, good information, and good exercises to help break socially anxious habits.
"Do not but it!"
A smorgasbord of info that's not in a easy to follow. Only really good if you're writing a research paper. Not good if you want simple easy to follow steps that gradually help you become a more social person.
"NOT the usual nonsense"
This book is so much better than the gung-ho nonsense that is so often peddled under the auspices of 'self help' or 'self confidence'. It deals with the causes and the symptoms in a practical and empathetic manner.
The simple reason for the book's success is that it is written by an experienced nurse. She knows what she's talking about and has a practical bedside manner.
She talks at one stage of Shyness being a gift. At first I thought 'hand on a minute!' But she does make some valid points and, cynic though I am, I did finish listening to that section feeling more confident about the way my mind works and who I am.
What was REALLY nice about the book was that I was not compelled to change and be something I'm not. It is OK to be a bit shy - that's part of me. And that, again, made me feel more confident!
Either way with some practice I have felt a lot better about myself, less shy and very grateful to nurse Ruth (even though she has a man's voice in this audio book!)
"Sounds like someone reading a dissertation"
As someone who suffers from social anxiety due to a horrid spate of bullying at school, I was looking for a way of addressing these issues via an audio book.
The information is horribly dry and just filled with statistics which ultimately do nothing apart from letting you know that your condition is quite common and is filled with terribly patronising by telling me that introverted people are more empathic..I dont care!
The advice in this book is filled with painful advice suggesting small talk introductions and getting people to talk about themselves as people like talking about themselves.
Its like a mix between a PHD and a well meaning mother offering impractical advice which doesnt address and solve the underlying problems.
A very poor and impractical audio book which does not tell you how to overcome shyness and social anxiety, but rather how to develop behaviour to blend in, to accept that this is your genetic lot in life via scientific data, to learn conversation techniques and that an introverted person is perfectly normal, so chin up and stop criticising yourself.
This book is written by someone who has not suffered from social anxiety and shyness, or has done and manages her condition by clinging onto scientific norms and "so tell me about yourself" types of conversation.
Absolute waste of time
Do not bother, it is an awful book.
"Confidently Shy"
I bought this book for my teenage son. He's always been fairly shy around new people and finds it hard to make new friends as a result. I know this can be hard for many people but for my son it was near to impossible. Although this book didnt instantly change his life around, it has definitely had an impact. He is still shy but seems more confident and unashamed of being that way.
He wasnt too eager to listen to this audio book at first (classic teenage 'I dont need that kind of stuff' response to it!) but I think even he would now admit that this book has really helped him. I cant praise this book enough for how it has helped my boy. Definitely worth a listen.
"hardly revolutionary"
A rather simplistic portrayal of what it means to be shy. This book has no pretensions to being an academic work, in terms of content, style and structure.
At times, it almost feels like the author is some sort of guru trying to instill in his ignorant followers a sense of self-worth.
It's most certainly destined for the uninitiated "general public", and there are some interesting insights for someone, namely myself, who has not explored the question in other books/articles.
Without wishing to give away the end, the suggested remedy seems to be that a) shy people have more worth than others, and b) just get out there and believe in yourself!
The music to announce each end of chapter is terrible. The narrator is good.
"great srrvice"
great srvice and great choice. i enjoy reading st nihht yime
i have made quite a collection.
"Difficult to listen to"
I was disappointed with this book. The content ranges from irrelevant technical stuff to painfully obvious (really does not need to be stated) material.
The sing song style of the narrator is very patronising and irritating.
"It transformed me!!"
I love this book. I am a shy introvert and the description of one in this book embodies me. I have always wanted to maximize my potential and this book helps me in so many ways. I listen to it when I am about to sleep. It keeps me all revved up when I wake up in the morning. The way it is read also helps, the voice and intonation of the reader contribute to its being an excellent listening experience. Highly recommended!

Houma's Quvenzhane Wallis to star in 'Annie' remake
Published: Sunday, February 24, 2013 at 2:36 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, February 24, 2013 at 2:36 p.m.
Quvenzhane Wallis, a 9-year-old from Houma who will learn tonight whether she will win a best-actress Oscar, will play the lead role in a Hollywood remake of the hit movie "Annie."
Sony Pictures, its subsidiary, Columbia Studios, and others made the announcement today.
"With the recent Academy Award nomination and critical acclaim, Quvenzhané Wallis is a true star, and we believe her portrayal as Annie will make her a true worldwide star," Hannah Minghella, president of production for Columbia Studios, said in a news release. "She is an extraordinary young talent with an amazing range, not only as an actress but as a singer and dancer, and we can't wait for audiences to further discover her."
The film, targeted for release during the 2014 holiday season, will be produced by famed actors Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, among others, and will be scored by Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter.
Wallis has risen to fame quickly. At 6, she made her first movie, the low-budget "Beasts of the Southern Wild." Filmed independently in Terrebonne Parish, the film is up for best picture and several other Academy Awards tonight. Wallis plays the lead role of Hushpuppy, who finds herself at the center of a poor but defiant bayou community fighting for survival against magical forces.
To most entertainment buffs, "Annie" is best known as a 1982 film directed by Hollywood icon John Huston. It starred Aileen Quinn in the title role of young orphan Annie, Carol Burnett as Miss Hannigan, who runs the orphanage, and Albert Finney as "Daddy" Warbucks, a tycoon who opens his home to Annie.
"Annie" was a Tony-award-winning play that opened on Broadway in 1977. The play and the film are based on the classic newspaper comic strip "LIttle Orphan Annie."

Continued performance of the filter elements becomes one of the critical process parameters that must be controlled.1,2,3 Using a filter in a process can lead to various damage phenomena such as irreparable blockage of the filter membrane and cracks or changes to the membrane or pore structure. While blockage can be easily detected during the process run, cracks or changes in pore structure cannot be detected that easily.4
The four integrity test steps are implemented upstream and downstream of the filtration unit in order to be able to detect any possible changes in filter element properties and thereby supply positive results to confirm the success of the filtration step. The diffusion test and the bubble point test are established, non-destructive test methods. To determine validity, compare the test results to the filter manufacturer's tolerance data. The bases of the tolerance data are validation processes conducted by the manufacturer. These are used to determine tolerances by correlating absolute, destructive test methods (bacteria challenge test) with filter integrity tests. Both test methods rely on a procedure of wetting the filter membrane with a pre-defined medium (typically ultrapure water, but also customer-specific liquids).4
To start the automatic filter test, the filtration housing is disconnected from the actual process, or the filter is installed in a separate test housing. In this procedure, the filter element is pressurized at a specific value on the upstream (non-sterile) side. At this test pressure, the diffusion through the filter membrane is determined for values starting at 0.1 mL/min. By contrast, when the bubble point test is carried out, the applied test pressure is raised successively and the diffusion measured in parallel is monitored to determine any disproportionate increase. This increase in diffusion is caused by the wetting medium being pressed out of the pores of the filter membrane, which initially occurs in the largest pores, thereby providing information about the upper limit of the pore size distribution. Typical bubble point values for microfilters range between 3,000 mbar and 4,000 mbar and, in ultrafiltration, can go up as high as 8,000 mbar. These methods also allow reliable detection of cracks or blockage.
Air filtration also needs a filter integrity test method to guarantee the sterility of critical parameters. Applications for these filter elements include pharmaceutical and biotechnological production systems. Unlike liquid filtration, air filtration elements are based on hydrophobic membranes, which prohibit the test methods previously mentioned (membrane wetting with ultrapure water).
In this context, an alternate, non-destructive method—the water intrusion test (WIT)6 —is an established test. During the WIT test, or the very similar water flow test (WFT), the penetration of water into the hydrophobic membrane is measured under pressure and evaluated by comparing the results to a limit value. Additionally, this filter type can be tested by a diffusion test after wetting the membrane by liquids with low surface tension such as isopropanol or mixtures of WFI and isopropanol.

FRISCO, Texas – Texas A&M – Corpus Christi women's tennis had its first ever doubles team recognized for All-Southland on Tuesday when Sandra Burges and Chelsea Horan were named Second Team All-Southland at No. 2 doubles, it was announced by the Southland Conference today.
The duo completed conference play undefeated, going 7-0 at No. 2 doubles, and 2-0 at the No. 3 spot, to earn the honor. For the season, Burges and Horan finished 13-2 overall, with the only losses coming against two nationally ranked teams in the Rice Owls and Stephen F. Austin Ladyjacks.
"I'm so proud of those two girls, how hard they worked and the way they improved this year," said Director of Tennis Steve Moore. "I'm not sure if I've ever seen two players improve so much over course of year."
Against the tough competition of the Southland Conference, the duo came with intensity every match, helping the team to its best finish in school history.
"What I'm most proud of though was the spirit and character they played with," said Moore. "They were such fighters and they really encouraged each other so much.
No. 2 doubles was such a spirited court for our team this year; those two girls are just such winners and they brought a contagious positive energy that really uplifted our team."
The team will continue their remarkable run this Thursday, when they face the Northwestern State Lady Demons in the first round of the Southland Conference Tournament.
The teams will meet at the Schlief Tennis Complex on the campus of regular season champion Stephen F. Austin. In the regular season, the Islanders lost a hard-fought 4-3 contest on the road against the Lady Demons, and will be looking to avenge the first Southland Conference loss of the year.

TOWN OF WALLKILL — Turkey. Togetherness. Tents.
Box stores were mobbed once again this year with lines of people, some staked out for days, seeking the best deals on everything from electronics to pajamas. But Black Friday shopping this year was more like Black Thursday, as people lined up by the hundreds Thanksgiving night.
At Best Buy in Wallkill, tents had been arranged in front of the store for days. About 400 people were there by 9 p.m. Thursday. Big sales on items like 40-inch televisions and cameras were the main draws. Toward the front of the queue, accusations of line-cutting escalated into a screaming match. Curses were yelled. Fingers were pointed. Little thanks, if any, was given.
By 5:15 p.m., a Wallkill police cruiser stopped by to check things out. Sgt. Barry Weissman said he'd been patrolling by many of the box stores. Line-cutting dispute resolution wasn't on his agenda, though.
"I'm not here to set rules," said Weissman. "I'm here to keep the peace."
Trey McZorn of Middletown said Best Buy should do more to tame line-cutting disputes beforehand.
"They should monitor what's going on here," said McZorn.
Stores have typically opened in the wee hours of the morning on the day after Thanksgiving, known as Black Friday for the time when stores traditionally turn a profit for the year. But Black Friday openings have crept earlier and earlier over the past few years. Now, stores from Target to Toys R Us are opening their doors on Thanksgiving evening, hoping Americans will be willing to shop soon after they finish their pumpkin pie.
Bonnie Broadhead Butler from Port Jervis said she'd set up her tent on Monday outside Best Buy. An injured foot — she dropped a turkey earlier in the day — didn't stop dreams of cheap laptops and cameras when midnight arrived.
"Thanksgiving?" Broadhead said, shocked. "This is my Thanksgiving. I'm giving thanks to Best Buy."
Outside Target at the Galleria at Crystal Run, things were a bit more peaceful. By the 9 p.m. opening, hundreds of eager shoppers wrapped around the building. Target employees handed out Clif Bars and maps of the store to those in line. Julian Reynolds, a Navy recruiter living in Middletown, said he was just there to kill some time. With his family in Arkansas, Thanksgiving was a light affair.
Melissa Houghtaling of Liberty waited in a line of hundreds in front of Toys R Us with her three daughters and husband for the store's 8 p.m. opening. It's her tenth year of Black Friday shopping. She remembers when Black Friday arrived "� on Friday.
"I don't like so much that it's not Friday anymore," said Houghtaling.
But Vicky Peresini of Bloomingburg didn't mind Target's 9 p.m. opening. It didn't cut into her Thanksgiving or her birthday, she said.
"Better this than 5 a.m.," said Peresini.
Crystal Young of Swan Lake, toward the front of the Target line with her sister and a friend, skipped dessert to make sure they got a good spot. But next year, who knows when they'll need to get up.
"It'll be Thanksgiving breakfast," she said. "We'll have turkey bacon."

"We achieved this because of tough budget cuts, and then people voted for the tax increase," he said at the press briefing. "We broke the logjam by going to the people."
The proposed document, released on the state Department of Finance's website Thursday, predicts $98.5 billion in general fund revenue proposes spending $97.5 billion. This includes a $1 billion reserve.
State Senator Jean Fuller's office released a statement late Thursday offering cautious optimism about the budget.
"The Governor embraced a balanced budget proposal today," Fuller stated. "That echoes the message many of us have repeatedly made over the years, especially when the state faced massive deficits."
However, she urged caution regarding the budget, citing some aspects of the budget were still imbalanced.
"The budget still consists of unsustainable spending for services. And we still haven't seen promised reforms to regulations, like CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act), that hinder the state's economic growth."
Brown's budget contradicts a Legislative Analyst Office report released in November citing that the state faced $1.9 billion deficit despite the tax measure passage and other modifications.
Education will see the largest gains in Brown's proposal.
After years of taking hits, California's K-12 and community colleges will jump $2.7 billion to $56.2 billion.
Both the University of California and California State University systems will each receive a $250 million bump over last year, but Brown has placed strings on it.
Brown's plan demands both university systems to cap student course loads at 150 percent of what a student needs to graduate (270 units for a UC student and 180 for a CSU undergrad) in the first two years.
In later years, Brown has called for cap at no more than an additional year's course load for each student, or 220 units for UC students and 150 units for CSU students.
Brown is also seeking to chart a course for healthcare reform in the face of the federal healthcare expansions under the Affordable Healthcare Act of 2010. Medicaid is offered in California as Medi-Cal.
Included in his budget are two paths, one for a leaner spending plan that would no longer provide long-term care for newly eligible people. The other option means passing the buck to the counties by leaving them responsible to determine what benefits can be offered.
Brown pointed out the state is in better shape than other states in terms of health care.
"California is way out in front," Brown said. "But we have to live within our means."
Brown estimated $350 million in increased health care costs due to the AHA expansions, a placeholder for now until the estimate is refined. He highlighted in his budget that Medicaid enrollment will increase, in general because the new guidelines will supposedly make it easier for people to enroll.
Page 2 of 2 - Brown's budget is not a rosy picture for all systems, however. The state's court system faces sharp cuts in addition to reductions.
Trial courts face a $200 million reduction in the governor's proposal, with the money transferred to court services. The state's entire court system overall is set to receive $3.1 billion in Brown's budget plan, but recent years have seen cumulative cuts totalling $1.2 billion.
Brown's budget also cautioned that the state faces a series of unfunded liabilities in the coming years, topped by the burgeoning pension systems spread across the state's three retirement funds.
"The boom and bust in our state's budget over the last decade is something we should not repeat," Brown wrote in his budget summary.
Brown cautioned that any tax relief generated by Prop 30 was only temporary, as the sales tax increases expires in 2016.
State Assembly Speaker John Perez, of Los Angeles, praised the bill in a statement released Thursday.
"This is a proposal that clearly shows California has turned the corner," Perez stated. "The Governor's budget is sober, restrained and forward thinking, and I believe it's a solid foundation for the budget process. I am looking forward to thorough and insightful public hearings as we work with the Governor to adopt the final budget by our Constitutional deadline."
Assemblywoman Shannon Grove's office declined to comment until it had done an analysis of the budget.

Christian Siriano on His Parisian-Inspired Collection and Designing for Disney
The front row at Christian Siriano's fall/winter 2014 show for New York Fashion Week was full of glamorous ladies, including "Orange Is the New Black" star Natasha Lyonne, and "Game of Thrones" cast members Sophie Turner and Maisie Williams. But the lady on everyone's mind was model Lisa Fonssagrives-Penn, the muse for Siriano's Parisian-inspired collection.
"I wanted to have the vibe that it was her [Fonssagrives-Penn] and her approach to dressing," said Siriano, who showed his 13th ready-to-wear collection yesterday. "Very French, very '50s and early '60s, which was when she was prominent in fashion."
The collection featured a variety of ladylike garments, including tea-length dresses, cape coats and voluminous strapless ball gowns. Siriano accessorized the outfits with wide-brimmed hats, pointed heels and structured handbags.
The former Project Runway star is not a stranger to designing with elegant ladies in mind, having dressed a range of A-listers, including Christina Hendricks, Lily Collins and Sarah Jessica Parker. He has collaborated with many mass retailers—most recently, a capsule collection with Sam's Club. The designer even gave Disney a style treatment, designing costumes for a pirate fairy named Zarina in Disney's upcoming film "The Pirate Fairy."
Having released his new collection, what's next for Siriano? "We'll take a little break and move to resort, time goes by very quickly."
Backstage before the show, Speakeasy caught up with Siriano to talk more about his collection, designing for Disney and the celebrity he wants to dress.
Edited excerpts:
On his new collection: We had a muse this season. Her name is Lisa Fonssagrives, and she was the wife of photographer Fernand Fonssagrives. Fernand took a lot of photos of her using light and shadow as prints and textures on her body, so I wanted to emulate that with the fabrics—transparent organzas with embroideries and woven silk. There are a variety of separates for day and evening in fifties silhouettes.
On designing for an animation: It was so fun. I had to make a real outfit to turn it into an animation. It was quite a challenge—I drew a million sketches and then narrowed it down to the perfect look for the character [Zarina]. Christina Hendrickson is the voice, just a perfect, perfect mix. I'm not a sketch artist, so what these animators do, it's unbelievable. They can make a drape in my pencil sketch move like real fabric. Disney is iconic, and we want the character to become iconic just like Tinkerbell.
On the awards season: Nothing in the works yet for Oscars, but we do have pieces that are Oscar-worthy. It's very hard because it's so close to fashion week and we are worried about presenting the collection. I'd love to dress Cate Blanchett—she's on the top of my list, she's so beautiful and amazing.

Applying arbitrary patches using Ops Center
By Gerry Haskins-Oracle on Sep 05, 2011
I asked my colleague, Juergen Fleischer, to let me know how to apply arbitrary patches - i.e. any specific patches you want to apply - using Ops Center.
Here's his response on how to do it:
Create a Custom Profile by selecting the desired patches. The Profile can get used for Compliance Reports or standard jobs to install these patches.
Here are the steps:
1) Select Plan Management -> Update Profiles
2) Select Action "New Profile" and name it appropiate e.g. "Solaris Cluster 3.1 APR-2011"
3) Select all required patches e.g. 120500-27 for SPARC and/or 120501-27 for x86 and save the Profile:
4) Use the Profile for plain Jobs, Reports, etc.
That's all
Best Wishes,

3.8-5 Legal Malpractice
Revised to January 1, 2008
In a legal malpractice
action, the plaintiff must prove by a preponderance of the evidence
three essential elements:
that the defendant, <name
of defendant>, was the plaintiff's attorney in the matter of <nature
of representation>;
that the attorney
departed from the standard of professional care owed to protect the
plaintiff's legal interests in that matter; and
that this departure was
a legal cause of harm to the plaintiff. I shall explain the term
"legal cause" to you in more detail shortly.
[In this case, the
defendant has conceded that (he/she) represented the plaintiff for
the purpose of <nature of representation>.]
[<If the defendant has
not conceded that (he/she) represented the plaintiff for such
purpose:> As to the first element of legal malpractice, the
defendant denies that (he/she) had an attorney-client relationship
with the plaintiff regarding the transaction[s] which (is/are) the
subject of the plaintiff's claim of professional negligence.
An attorney-client
relationship is established when the advice and assistance of an
attorney is sought and received in matters pertinent to the legal
profession. It is the obligation of an attorney to provide the
legal services for which (he/she) was hired. This duty extends only
to those services within the legal profession which the attorney
agreed, expressly or impliedly, to provide on behalf of the client
and does not extend to the business of the plaintiff in general.
The burden is on the
plaintiff to prove, by a preponderance of the evidence, that such an
attorney-client relationship existed between the parties with
respect to the malpractice alleged by the plaintiff.]
In an ordinary negligence
action, for instance, one brought to recover damages for injuries
arising out of an automobile accident, the jury does not need
evidence as to the degree of care which the automobile operator
should have used under the circumstances, as it is assumed that,
from your own experience, you are aware of the necessary degree of
care. In a malpractice action, however, the situation, as I am sure
you understand, is quite different. Malpractice is really
professional negligence. Because jurors are probably unfamiliar
with legal procedures, methods, and strategies, you obviously cannot
be expected to know the demands of proper legal representation. It
is for this reason that expert testimony is required to define the
standard of care or the duty owing from the lawyer to his client,
whether that duty has been breached, and whether that breach of duty
caused the damages the plaintiff claims, so that you can reasonably
and logically conclude what the proper standard of professional care
was, whether or not it was violated, and whether that violation was
a legal cause of harm to the plaintiff.1
Although the standard of
care is a matter of expert opinion, the determination of the facts
and the measuring of the facts by the standard is for you, the jury.
The rule of law applicable
in legal malpractice cases is as follows: An attorney, in
representing a client, is obligated to exercise that degree of
knowledge, skill, and diligence which lawyers in Connecticut and in
the same general line of practice as the defendant ordinarily have
and exercise in similar cases. You will recall that we are talking
about a lawyer practicing in the field of <area of law>.
<Recite allegations.>
The plaintiff need not
prove that the defendant failed to possess and use the required
knowledge, skill, and diligence in all the ways alleged. It is
enough if the plaintiff proves one or more of the allegations of
professional negligence, provided the plaintiff also proves that
such negligence, if proven, was a legal cause of the plaintiff's
The test in this case for
determining what constitutes sufficient knowledge, skill, and
diligence on the part of the defendant is that which attorneys
ordinarily have and exercise in similar cases. That means that the
law does not expect from an attorney the utmost care and skill
obtainable or known to the profession. Furthermore, the fact that
the representation was unsuccessful or the result was not as
favorable as hoped by the client or the attorney raises no
presumption of lack of knowledge, skill, or diligence. Negligence
and unskillfulness are not presumed. As previously stated, the
plaintiff has the burden of proof in this regard.
In order, then, to obtain
a verdict against the defendant, the plaintiff must prove, by a fair
preponderance of the evidence, that the defendant was the
plaintiff's attorney regarding <nature of representation>;
that the defendant failed to possess or exercise the knowledge,
skill, and diligence ordinarily exercised by such an attorney in one
or more of the ways alleged, and that that lack of knowledge, skill,
and diligence was a legal cause of the plaintiff's damages.
1 Expert
testimony is not required where there is such an obvious and gross
lack of care and skill that it is clear even to a layperson.

Court opinions have held that whether the exception applies is a
question of law. Thompson v. Putnam Kitchens, Superior

Look younger without breaking your budget this season
Thinking about holiday parties, and how you can freeze the hands of time without um, also freezing your face? Relax: we know you sneak off for more than just lunch with the girls in your quest to remain cute and fresh-faced. Well, listen up, ladies. Here's one offer you must NOT ignore.
By now, you've probably heard about the Sciton BroadBand laser. A few select med spas around town are now using it with impressive results. According to Tama Tran, a registered nurse and owner of Lily Med Spa in North Dallas, just one treatment can reverse skin damage and provide a dramatic difference in tones, line and texture.
In fact, she's so confident in the technology and its results that she's willing to prove it to you for FREE. For a limited time in December, she's offering a complimentary photofacial–a $350 value–to anyone who brings in a holiday-related photo of themselves. (Submitted photo can be a Christmas card, photo with Santa, New Year's Eve picture, etc., from 2012 or earlier.)
How's that for a holiday bonus? But hurry: just like snow in Dallas, this offer won't last long!

The age of a US-centric vertically integrated life-sciences industry has, for the most part, come to an end. During the past several years, executives have seen the need to move sourcing and manufacturing overseas in an effort to lower costs. In the process, many companies have recognized the potential of these emerging markets for creating and growing their own product pipelines and reaching new consumers. With these changes, however, come increasing demands on life-sciences manufacturers to manage and control their supply chains, which are now longer and more complex.
Axendia, an industry analyst and strategic consulting firm, recently conducted research on current trends in the life-sciences global supply chain. The study incorporated data from three sources: an advisory council, which provided background and perceptive on key issues; a survey of industry professionals; and individual interviews to review and refine the findings. Our research has shown the need for companies to shed the view of supply chains from a supplier–buyer mentality and to shift to intelligent supply networks that can provide information "on-demand." In this model, collaboration occurs during the entire product life cycle, from the raw-material supplier to the distribution company that delivers the final product safely to the end user. The model also supports the need for industry to view "competitors" as potential allies with whom information can be shared and leveraged to keep products safe and effective while managing costs. Finally, this model supports the need for industry and regulatory bodies to continue to work together to find practical and cost-effective solutions to ensure the quality, safety and efficacy of products.
Based on this research, titled "Achieving Global Supply Chain Visibility, Control & Collaboration in Life Sciences: Business Imperative, Regulatory Necessity," this article reviews current industry challenges and trends in managing global and outsourced supply chains (1). The authors also propose best practices, including the implementation of technologies, for improving visibility and control of life-science product supply chains.New risks, new demands
A recent report by the US Intellectual Property Enforcement Coordinator (IPEC) points to the US government's eagerness to address some of these supply-chain threats (2). The report, for example, recommends modifying the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to require that manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors implement a track-and-trace system to allow for authentication of products. The report also recommends the creation of a standardized electronic pedigree (ePedigree) using unique identifiers. Finally, the report calls for increased enforcement efforts to guard against the proliferation of counterfeit pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Although FDA has initiatives underway to require serialization of pharmaceuticals, specifically Standardized Numerical Identifiers (SNI) that are based on a serialized National Drug Code (sNDC), the US IPEC report goes further by recommending the implementation of ePedigree. Several states and countries have begun the process of mandating their own track-and-trace, serialization, and ePedigree systems, including California, Turkey, Brazil, and France.
New approaches. While local and national governments work to clarify and harmonize requirements and guidance for supply- chain tracking systems for pharmaceutical products, industry can also take steps to make the best use of current technologies to better manage and control their supply chain. Axendia has identified three key approaches in this regard: increase on-demand visibility; change the view of your company's supply chain to a supply network; and strengthen collaboration.
