When creating a line based on a relative angle it seems to default to a middle Reference Point on the line being added. Is there any way to change that to Start or End?
I need to place one start/end of the new line on the start/end of the relative line specifying the length. As it is, I have to double the length, place it in the middle and then remove the excess.
Thank you.

SAN JOSE -- The heart attack was six months ago. But Dan Clark still wears the plastic hospital bracelet on his wrist.
"It's tattered and frayed," he said. "But it reminds me to be grateful that I'm alive."
Clark was a San Jose State football defensive lineman in the mid-1980s who later carved out a pop-culture niche as the cocky, Spandex-clad character "Nitro" on the American Gladiators TV series. And Saturday he brings back to San Jose his Gladiator Rock 'n Run, which deftly has caught the growing wave of obstacle-course racing.
But in December, Clark thought he might be dying after suffering a heart attack while working out -- a shock for a fitness buff.
"I thought I was bulletproof because of my lifestyle," said Clark, who lives in Southern California and turned 50 in May. "But that's exactly why cardiovascular disease is the No. 1 killer. We just don't understand the risk factors. But I learned how everything can change in a heartbeat."
Or when a heartbeat nearly stops.
Surprising health scare
Friends always thought Clark lived a charmed life. A brief professional football career morphed into his role as a 260-pound "gladiator" combating amateur athletes. Years later, he's an adventure-race entrepreneur.
"He's never really had a real job," said Frank E. McFadden II, a college roommate who has remained good friends with Clark. "But everything he does, he's successful at it. He's just this little, playful puppy who has never realized that he's really a Rottweiler. He's the happiest guy that I've ever met."
But that wasn't the case last December. Clark was in the gym -- where he trains five days a week. Clark experienced shortness of breath, chest pains and a cold sweat.
"I was shaking my left arm and that's when I thought, 'This is a heart attack,'" Clark said.
An electrocardiogram confirmed his self-diagnosis after a friend drove him to an urgent-care center.
"Suddenly, you're that guy everyone is looking at, on the gurney, with an IV in your arm and an oxygen mark over your face," he added. "I remember they kept talking about nitro in the ambulance. I thought they were talking about my Nitro character until I realized they were talking about giving me nitroglycerin."
Clark underwent emergency surgery for a blood clot in one of his arteries and had a stent implanted.
"I definitely thought that I might lose one of my best friends," McFadden said. "But when I got to the hospital, he already was out of surgery. And I had to tell him to settle down and rest because he wanted to walk around."
Family history is a strong risk factor for heart attacks, and Clark's father had suffered one. But less clear is what role anabolic steroids might have played.
Five years ago, he published an unflinching tell-all called "Gladiator: A True Story of 'Roids, Rage and Redemption." He wrote of how steroids helped him get a football scholarship, play a few games in the NFL and buffed his chiseled physique. But his body also began to break down as he added more muscle than his frame could handle.
Heart problems are a side-effect of steroids, according to the National Institutes of Health. But Clark said he long ago stopped taking them, was closely monitoring his body chemistry and had shown no symptoms before that day.
"It would be easy to point the finger and say that 20 years ago you did this, and now this is the result," Clark said. "But I just don't know. I haven't read any literature about linking past usage to current problems like this."
New fitness boom
Today, he is focused on his Gladiator Rock'N Run series. The idea came to Clark in 2009 when he ran the popular San Jose Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon with former San Jose State teammate Bob Frasco.
"I felt such a sense of accomplishment," Clark said. "But I started looking for something more than just running around on pavement. I wanted to design something that was fun and could be done by anyone."
That year, according to The New York Times, there were just a few of these extreme events. But now Clark is part of a boom that includes 250 companies operating obstacle-course events. The Tough Mudder and Spartan Race series, which are the young industry's giants, each are expected to draw 1 million participants this year.
"I call it a flame-leaping, mudslinging, Spandex-clinging run from hell with beer," said Clark, who is holding events in eight cities this year. "You're going to get dirty. But you'll have a smile on your face."
Over the six-kilometer course at the Joseph D. Grant County Park on Mt. Hamilton Road, competitors will navigate obstacles such as a waist-deep pool of icy water, a mud pit, an 8-foot wall and crawling through underground trenches. Clark said they are expecting 7,500 people, including between 3,000 and 4,000 participants.
Meanwhile, his health is back to about 95 percent of what it was before the scare. Last week, to mark six months into his recovery, Clark tried another potentially heart-stopping activity. He went sky-diving.
"I just thought that it was a good way to celebrate life," he said.

County Can't Ban Smoking at Public Beaches, Commission Told
Published: Wednesday, January 9, 2013 at 10:08 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 9, 2013 at 10:08 a.m.
SARASOTA | Sarasota County commissioners don't have the authority to ban smoking at public beaches, outdoor sports facilities or parks.
The county attorney told commissioners Tuesday that a recent court decision related to the city of Sarasota's proposed smoking ban ruled that local governments do not have the authority to ban smoking in public outdoor areas. Only the Florida Legislature can ban smoking on beaches and parks.
The Herald-Tribune (http://bit.ly/VNrTr1) reports that one commissioner immediately called for county leaders to push the Legislature to introduce a bill giving counties the authority to ban smoking in public outdoor places.
In December, Sarasota County Judge Maryann Boehm ruled that the Sarasota's tough new ordinance banning smoking in public parks was unenforceable, and that regulating smoking was a task left to the Legislature.

Rock and Roll Hall of Famer David Byrne and some of his talented friends are set to perform the music of William Onyeabor on Tuesday at the Warfield in San Francisco.
It's part of a five-city tour, dubbed Atomic Bomb! The Music of William Onyeabor.
Byrne will be joined onstage by Sinkane, Money Mark, Alexis Taylor (Hot Chip), Kele Okereke (Bloc Party), Pat Mahoney (LCD Soundsystem), Joshua Redman and the legendary Lijadu Sisters of Nigeria, in their first live performances in 30 years, among others.
Don't feel bad if you haven't heard of Onyeabor -- most people, especially in the United States, don't know his name. The artist "self-released eight nearly impossible-to-find albums between 1978 and 1985 in Nigeria, then became Born-Again Christian, turned his back on his work, and refused to speak about it for nearly three decades," according to a new release for the tour.
Last year, Byrne's Luaka Bop label released the Onyeabor compilation "World Psychedelic Classics 5: Who is William Onyeabor?" The album was met with massive critical acclaim, ending up on Time magazine's top 10 albums of the year list and earning Pitchfork's endorsement as the best reissue of 2013.
Show time is 8 p.m. and tickets start at $35, www.axs.com.

'The Walking Dead,' Season 3, Episode 8, 'Made to Suffer': TV Recap
The fight in the Governor's man-cave alone was worth the price of admission, as they say, to tonight's episode of The Walking Dead.
It was one of the best sequences yet in this show, and the image of the Governor, a shard of glass sticking out of his eye, cradling his now-really-dead zombie daughter, crying uncontrollably amid the severed zombie heads that came crashing out of his fish tanks as Andrea looks on in baffled amazement, well, it may be just enough to satisfy fans until February.
The Walking Dead may not get any attention from the Emmy crowd, but, really, could anything on Mad Men top that? There has never been a better show this demented, gory, unpredictable and absolutely gripping. This show is over the top nuts, and that's why fans love it.
Part of that is because, to some extent, everybody on The Walking Dead is nuts. How could they not be? Society has collapsed around them. Everybody they've ever known in their entire lives has turned into ravenous, flesh-eating zombies. They've been living in a waking nightmare for more than a year now. There's no place to recharge their iPhones.
Once you realize this, almost everything on the show starts to make sense, and not just obvious stuff like Rick talking to his dead wife on a dead rotary phone, or the Governor combing his dead zombie daughter's hair. (It doesn't explain all the decisions of the writers of the show, but at least it gives them a creative out.)
Like the decision to send four people to assault a heavily armed, fortified town, and leaving a ten-year old kid to look after the Grimes Clan at the prison.
That is where tonight's episode, "Made to Suffer," finds the survivors, although it gives us an immediate surprise by opening on another group of survivors, led by Tyreese (apparently a big fan-favorite from the comics) fighting off a zombie attack in the woods, and taking refuge in what turns out to be the West Georgia Correctional Facility.
More survivors! It's a big plot turn, but it's only one of the strands to follow; there's the attempt to rescue Glenn and Maggie, Michonne's attempt to kill that "Jim Jones type," the Governor, Andrea's night of surprises, and even Carol keeping Axel the convict (well, guess they're all ex-cons now) from getting too close to young Beth.
The character who gets put through the wringer the most, though, is Andrea. The episode begins with her still smiling, playing the Ozzie and Harriett fantasy game with the Governor (or Phillip, as she alone knows). By the end, she's seen the insanity inside Phillip's man-cave, had a perilous stand-off with her old partner Michonne, and realized that the crew she used to run with is still around.
Most of the episode revolves around the attempt to rescue Maggie and Glenn from Woodbury, under cover of dark and a bunch of smoke grenades. Michonne leads Rick, Daryl, and Oscar inside the town walls, and they start scurrying around Woodbury's safe rooms.
Glenn and Maggie are being held in the same room with the now-really-dead walker Merle threw in there, waiting for their fate. "All this time running from walkers," Maggie says, "You forgot what people can do." Yes, people can do terrible things, too. How soon you forget.
They're prepared to die, but not to go out meekly. Glenn literally tears an arm off the walker, rips it in half, and hands Maggie a piece of bone (looked like both the radius and ulna). When Merle comes for them, there's a struggle, Maggie stabs one henchman in the neck, and gunfire that attracts Rick's team.
They swoop in just before Merle can execute Maggie and Glenn, fight off the Woodbury heavies, and run off to an empty storefront along Woodbury's main street. While holed up, Glenn tells Daryl that his brother, Merle, was the one that beat them, and was going to execute them. The shock at learning his brother's alive lasts only about 30 seconds. "I need you," Rick says, and that's that. Daryl's in the Grimes Clan.
They throw a few more smoke grenades out the door and make a break for it right down the main street in a running gun fight. There's much confusion, Daryl disappears, Oscar is shot (and then mercy-shot by Maggie), Michonne is nowhere to be found.
While Rick is trying to get Maggie and Glenn out, we are treated to one of the best sequences yet in this show. Michonne breaks in the Governor's apartment, intent on killing him, and waits. After being there only a few minutes she hears a thudding sound from inside his man-cave (and how come Andrea never did?) She breaks in to find things that shock even her: the wall of fish tanks with zombie heads in them, and Penny, the Governor's little zombie daughter, chained up, covered up and caged up.
Penny has a sack over her head, and her arms are bound. Michonne assumes she's a captive, and attempts to free her. She takes the sack off to find a zombie, but before she can put her sword through her, the Governor barges in. He stands there, gun in his shaking hand, and like any loving father, concerned only for his daughter.
"There's no need for her to suffer," he says, and we have to take a moment here to laud David Morrissey, who plays the Governor. Morrissey does a tremendous job bringing to life what is one deliciously complicated villain.
He's not just cartoon, black-and-white evil. He's capable of murdering an entire National Guard unit. But he's also just a desperate father trying to save his daughter's life. Morrissey sells both sides of the Governor. Hope he sticks around longer than Dale did.
"She doesn't have needs," Michonne says, and puts her sword right through the back of Penny's head. The fight that follows is brutal, the Governor gets a glass shard shoved in his eye, and Michonne would have killed him, but Andrea burst in, gun drawn. The two former partners in the wild stare at each other, barrel-to-sword tip, before Michonne just walks off.
We've been waiting for Andrea to discover Phillip's dark secrets. As he sits there, cradling his now-really-dead zombie daughter with his bloody glass-filled eye, crying like any father would, Andrea takes in the whole demented scene: the zombie heads lying on the floor like gasping fish, her battered lover and his little zombie. Woodbury's not exactly what Andrea thought it was.
The Governor, now with only one good eye, decides to sacrifice Merle. He calls the town's residents to the zombie arena, lit in the dark by torches, and tells them something: he's afraid. He's afraid because there are people, terrorists, out there who want what they have in Woodbury.
He says Merle was in on the attack, was working with…his brother! Daryl is dragged into the arena, and the Dixon brothers stand there as the bloodthirsty crowd calls for their death. None of them have ever seen Daryl, or care, except for Andrea, of course, who upon seeing Daryl is presented one more surprise in a night full of them for her.
This was the so-called mid-season finale, so now Deadheads you've got a few months to, um, kill; the show returns in February, and you don't have many options.
There aren't any webisodes in the works (we asked AMC), although if you haven't seen them yet, they're worth the time. Brad Pitt's World War Z apparently isn't coming until June (and doesn't look like it'll be worth the wait, judging by the trailer.) The folks who're making the upcoming Warm Bodies movie seem to have missed a chance here. Their zombie flick doesn't come until the beginning of February.

If you've been hoping to buy a Rocawear "Occupy All Streets" t-shirt so that label founder Jay-Z could finally afford a durable blue tarp of his own, you're out of luck: The shirts are no longer for sale on Rocawear.com.
The disappearance of the $22 shirts comes just days after we learned that none of the proceeds from shirt sales would benefit the Occupy movement. Maybe Jay-Z and the Rocawearers realized that making money off of the coughing, diseased masses (Zuccotti Lung is the silicosis of the 21st century) without donating as much as $100 for some super-duper economy-sized bag of Halls for them to share was perhaps in poor taste, and decided to pull the shirts off the website. Or maybe he didn't want any snotty-nosed protesters to Occupy Rocawear's headquarters, or was afraid of becoming an Anonymous target, or wanted to set a proper example for his fetus.

SANTA BARBARA -- UC Santa Barbara has canceled Tuesday classes and is preparing for an afternoon memorial service in the aftermath of a Friday night killing spree near campus that left six of its students dead.
"This is a time for mourning and grieving, and for consoling and supporting each other," UC President Janet Napolitano wrote in a letter to the university community. "It will take time for our UCSB colleagues to recover and heal from this."
The memorial service begins at 4 p.m. Tuesday in Harder Stadium.
After fatally stabbing his roommates and later shooting others as he drove through Isla Vista, where many UC Santa Barbara students live, mass-murder suspect Elliot Rodger shot himself, police say.
The 22-year-old Santa Barbara City College Student shot or intentionally rammed with his car more than a dozen others in the Friday night attack, according to police; Napolitano said nine of the wounded were UC students.
Among the dead are three UC Santa Barbara students from the Bay Area: Cheng Yuan "James" Hong, 20, and George Chen, 19, both from San Jose, and Weihan "David" Wang, 20, of Fremont. Hong and Chen were listed on the lease as Rodger's roommates. All three were killed in the apartment.
According to their Facebook pages, Hong was a 2012 graduate of Lynbrook High School. Chen graduated the same year from Leland High. Wang was briefly a student at American High School in Fremont before he transferred to a private school, according to James Morris, superintendent of the Fremont Unified School District.
Sophomore Victor Espinosa-Rosiles, of Oakland, said he met up with friends Friday night across the hall from Rodger's apartment, which was the site -- they later discovered -- of the first horrific crime scene.
"That's what freaked us out, that we could have run into him on our way in and his way out," he said.
Espinosa-Rosiles didn't know anyone injured or killed in the spree, but said students were helping one another cope with the tragedy -- which, he stressed, could have happened anywhere.
"The community's pretty tight knit," he said. "That's probably just the biggest thing -- just talking with each other."
The campus's health services department helped students get through the day Tuesday with "dog hugs" from therapy animals. A local Aikido center invited Santa Barbara students to practice the Japanese "art of peace," meditate or just observe for free.
The student government erected a memorial wall on Tuesday and, to make sure the grieving knew where to find help, posted a statement with information about counseling services.
"As we move forward, we must hold fast to the love and compassion we have for each other," the student-leaders wrote. "Above all we seek to honor and memorialize those lost, support those around us, and heal as a community."
UC will lower all of its flags to half-staff through June 1, Napolitano said.
"During this terrible time for our UC community, I ask that you join me in the belief that the process of healing and reflection we will go through in the coming days will draw us closer as a university community," she wrote. "Together, we will get through this."
Lawmakers reacted to the shooting by announcing plans Tuesday for a bill to create a "gun violence restraining order."
The bill would establish a system in which concerned relatives, intimate partners or friends can notify police about someone showing a propensity toward violence, so police can investigate and seek a judge's order to seize that person's firearms and prevent any purchases.
Current law lets that process start only when therapists notify police that a client is at risk of committing a violent act. Family members can call police, but if no crime has been committed, or the individual doesn't meet criteria for an involuntary civil commitment to mental health treatment, there isn't anything police can do about that person's firearms.
"When someone is in crisis, the people closest to them are often the first to spot the warning signs," Assemblywoman Nancy Skinner, D-Berkeley, said in a news release. "Parents, like the mother who tried to intervene, deserve an effective tool they can act on to help prevent these tragedies."
Skinner will co-author the bill with Assemblyman Das Williams, D-Santa Barbara, and state Sen. Hannah Beth Jackson, D-Santa Barbara. "The tragic incident in my hometown of Isla Vista is not a result of gun laws failing," Williams said. "Rather, it is a horrific example of how our mental health laws and gun control laws are not working together."
Also, state Senate Democrats will present a package of mental health policy and budget proposals Wednesday in Sacramento "to address mental healthcare within California's criminal justice system, recidivism and public safety," according to a release from Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg's office. "The package includes a proposal to strengthen and apply statewide protocols to help frontline law enforcement identify signs of mental illness."

Last Modified: Sunday, April 28, 2013 at 1:28 a.m.
It wasn't during the NFL draft, which ended Saturday night with the final four rounds, but Wofford football products Eric Breitenstein and Mike Niam did get calls from pro teams.
Breitenstein, the Terriers' all-time leading rusher and finalist for the Walter Payton award given to the best offensive player on the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision level, was invited to attend the Carolina Panthers' rookie mini-camp May 9 in Charlotte, N.C.
Niam, an All-Southern Conference linebacker recognized by the Sporting News on its Fabulous 50 FCS All-America roster, will be at the Cleveland Browns' tryout beginning May 11.
"There's no contract or anything, but it's a shot," Breitenstein said. "It was a long day. I've been watching the draft since about 12 o'clock. Toward the end, my agent told me I was on some boards for the last 20 picks or so. I thought there was a chance. But there were other guys above me and it didn't work out."
While he was discussing the disappointment with his agent and pondering the next step, Breitenstein said, the Panthers called.
"Just the fact that I still have a shot makes me feel better," he said. "I was disappointed. But I still have a chance to continue doing what I love. I'll give it everything I've got."
Breitenstein rushed for 2,035 yards last season, including a Southern Conference single-game best of 321, leading Wofford into the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs. He finishing with a school-record 5,128 yards, has the most 100-yard games with 32 and is second on the team's all-time list with 65 rushing touchdowns.
Both players are getting chances with their hometown teams. Breitenstein is from Valle Crucis, N.C., near Boone. Niam is from Hudson, Ohio, only about 30 miles from Cleveland.
"It was a pretty stressful, long day," Niam said. "I got a call from the Browns saying they were interested and they were about to make a decision. Then they said they would give me a tryout. I was pretty excited."
Niam overcame a couple of knee surgeries to make 274 career tackles at Wofford. He said he is in the best physical shape of his life and is looking forward to getting the chance to begin to fulfill his dreams in a couple of weeks.
"I know that I have an opportunity. That's all I really care about right now," Niam said. "All I ever wanted was a foot in the door. I have that now and I really can't complain. I'm thankful. I plan to do everything in my power to make the most of it."

In a season full of losses, the Raiders have managed to avoid one unfortunate fate -- a last-place ranking in the Associated Press Pro32 NFL power rankings, as determined by the poll's 12 voters.
Oakland was handed its sixth-straight defeat Thursday by the Denver Broncos, a 26-13 decision at O.co Coliseum. That put the Raiders at 3-10 on the season, but it didn't cause them to fall in the AP rankings. Instead, the Raiders tied for 30th place in the rankings; Oakland entered Thursday's game ranked 31st.
The Raiders have 29 points in the rankings, the same as the Kansas City Chiefs. The Raiders host the Chiefs (2-11) on Sunday, kicking off at 1:25 p.m. The Chiefs were beaten last Sunday 30-7 by the Cleveland Browns.
In last place in this week's rankings are the Jacksonville Jaguars (25 points), who lost 17-10 to the New York Jets last Sunday.
Comments on the Raiders by the AP Pro32 panel (ranking in parentheses):
Chris Berman (ESPN, 32) -- At least they have 10 days off.
Clifton Brown (Sporting News, 32) -- Chiefs vs. Raiders in Week 15 won't be NFL football at its finest.
Rich Gannon (CBS Sports/SiriusXM NFL Radio, 31) -- Time to find out about Terrelle Pryor
Bob Glauber (Newsday, 32) -- Raiders owe Carson Palmer $13 million next season. Doubt he'll see that cash.
Rick Gosselin (Dallas Morning News, 30) -- The Raiders have allowed 400-plus points for the second consecutive season.
Clark Judge (CBSSports.com, 29) -- Just lose, baby.
Ira Kaufman (Tampa Tribune, 31) -- Remember when Chiefs-Raiders used to mean something?
Pat Kirwan (SiriusXM NFL Radio/CBSSports.com, 30) -- Carson Palmer is not the problem, but he takes a lot of heat. He is going to wind up throwing for 4,700 yards and 27 touchdowns on a team that has issues on the O-line, running back, receiver and a defense that is a big part of the six-game losing streak.
John Lynch (Fox Sports, 32) -- The Raiders turnaround has a long way to go.
Alex Marvez (Foxsports.com, 29) -- As a six-game losing streak grows, it becomes harder each week to find something the Raiders are doing well.
Dan Pompei (Chicago Tribune, 29) -- It might be Terrelle Pryor time in Oakland.

"I couldn't be happier with this invitation! The card stock is of nice quality and the printing turned out great. I love how colorful it is! Even the back of the card is super cute too. Perfect for my son's first birthday!"
"I turned this design into a thank you card for my daughter's 1st birthday. She happens to really enjoy cars. Super cute and colorful!"
"This card is perfect for my little Thomas the Train obsessed son and his third birthday party. Be sure to review your card before you order because I erased the "3" in the middle of the red dot on the train and didn't realize it until it was too late. But otherwise it is an absolutely adorable card."
"I loved these invites for my son's 4th birthday. The quality was excellent and everyone commented on how adorable the invitation was."
"My son is turning three. This card came out so adorable I can't even tell you. The pictures I used front and back are exactly how I wanted them and it blends perfectly with the card design. I'm super happy and love this beautiful keepsake for his baby book too (yes- I save a birthday invite and holiday card every year). Love this invite!"

Chemical operators in demand locally
February 10, 2013
MARIETTA — The Washington County Career Center continues to train chemical operators, but demand in the Valley and beyond is showing no signs of slowing down....
my only comment is this. a few years ago now when dupont opened up their hiring pool. i made a grand total of 3200 miles in travel to even get the chance of being in their hiring pool. then this past winter dupont completely changed their hiring process and would now have to go back thru the whole ordeal in order to be considered yet again. talk about a bit of a let down, that was a lot of time, effort, and money involved to make that hiring pool.

I don't care what classes you take thinking it will land you a job at a local chemical plant.Everyone needs to know that supervisions family are always the best qualified especially at DuPont,that is what is wrong with DuPont now too many children of supervision thinking DuPont owes them a good living, that is why most can't wait to retire or retire early and take plenties for going early just to get away from the bulls@*t.I know of alot this happens & usually most new hires shouldn't work as dog walkers let alone DuPont.

This multi-billion dollar company is proof that generics can be big business. Although Teva saw its North America earnings power shrink to 48% of its sales in 2011 from 62% in 2010, the Israeli company balanced things out, increasing sales to 31% in Europe, up from 24% in 2010, and hauled in 21% of its take from international sales, compared with 14% the year before. Although the company remains solidly in the unbranded drug space, its $6.8-billion purchase last year of Cephalon and its CNS portfolio means more exposure to the brand side of the patent-protection wars, as CNS drugs Provigil, Copaxone and Treanda burn through their exclusivity periods. Teva dealt Par the right to sell an authorized generic of Provigil, meaning Teva earns from both ends of the patent spectrum. The company says it has 177 product registrations awaiting FDA approval—120 of these are patent challenges for first-to-market generic rights.

I do almost everything with keyboard shortcuts.
1)I would like to be able to close the current file/drawing using a keyboard shortcut. Control W is shown on the drop down menu, but if I press control W, nothing happens. I note that if I run it from a bash terminal , it says 'Warning: QAction::eventFilter: Ambiguous shortcut overload: Ctrl+W". Does anyone have a work around for this? I am running version 3.4.5, 32 bit on Debian Wheezy.
2) I cancel commands using the shortcut 'qq', but sometimes this doesn't work because the focus is currently on an imput field like the Command line or a parameter box. I can switch back to command mode by pressing escape, but sometimes I need to press escape multiple times before I can type shortcuts like qq. Is there a shorter, faster key combination that I can use to move the focus away from any import fields so that I can immediately type the next shortcut in like qq or za?

In America it's almost a national pastime to make fun of Rednecks.
But I love 'em.
On some days I swear I'm becoming one.
Shoot, one of my best friends is named JimBob.
Craig Morgan has a song called The Redneck Yacht Club.
I was listening to it this morning while sitting in my sweats, sneakers, and Ferrari cap behind the school bus. It was stopped, lights-a-blinkin', waiting for the kids to climb on. Once they all got in and sat down I would be able to drop off my daughter at the Country Market, where she meets her ride to school, another 20 minutes up the road.
I got to thinking that there ought to be rules about some things.
Like what you wear outside of the house, for instance.
I know, I know, when you get right down to it, there's really not a lot of difference between a cheap tuxedo and a pair of overalls. They are, after all, both made of cotton.
Except that there is.
And dropping off your little girl at the bus in pajama bottoms and bedroom slippers, a Marlboro hanging off your bottom lip, is simply not acceptable attire for any Momma. Redneck or not.
Even if the pajamas are a fashionable cerulian blue with tastefully spaced red and yellow 'possum prints that set off the faux fur on your bedroom slippers to best advantage.
After the bus left, she shuffled across the railroad tracks, waved at her friend standing in the window behind the rusty pontoon boat that's been parked in the front yard since 1982, bigger than the damn house, and headed home.
She lives next door to the RV storage and consignment lot. Each morning, she steps over the broken picket fence gate and goes back inside to finish her daily chores. Or last night's bottle of Jim Beam. Who knows. When you wear your pajama bottoms to the bus stop, anything is possible.
Even a proud people who value their freedom need standards.

SANTA CLARA -- Former Stanford linebacker Chase Thomas signed Tuesday with the 49ers, already his fifth team since going undrafted in 2013.
Thomas had stints with the New Orleans Saints and Oakland Raiders before spending last season on the Atlanta Falcons' practice squad. He signed in January with the Green Bay Packers and was released by them May 12.
Also signing with the 49ers was former USC tight end Kevin Greene, an Oakland native and Sacred Heart Prep-San Francisco graduate. He's not related to the former 49ers linebacker with the same name.
Thomas and Greene both auditioned at last weekend's rookie minicamp, and they filled roster spots created by the release of offensive tackle Luke Marquardt and linebacker Morgan Breslin. Marquardt reportedly fractured the same foot that sidelined him all of 2013 as an undrafted rookie. Breslin was a Las Lomas High-Walnut Creek and Diablo Valley College product before playing at USC, where his 2013 season was hampered by a hip injury.

Morgan Stanley Goes Bunga Jumping
The blood-letting in markets Monday showed there's new truth to the old saying that when Europe sniffles, Morgan Stanley catches a cold.
U.S. markets slid on fear that Italian-election results will rekindle the euro crisis. Financial stocks got clobbered; Morgan led the way down with a 6.6% decline. That was due to longstanding worries about financial contagion if the euro-zone falls apart. And, fair or not, Morgan is still seen as the weak link in the too-big-to-fail chain.
Meanwhile, like plenty of others, Morgan had recently been feeling better about Europe. The firm reported total exposure to euro-zone peripheral countries increased to $6.4 billion in the fourth quarter, compared with $4.8 billion in the third. Ironically, the firm increased its negative bet on French sovereign debt, while its positive exposure to Italian sovereign debt stayed flat.
Such exposures should be manageable for a firm of Morgan's size. Even so, when investors have a knee-jerk reaction to Europe, Morgan is the one that usually gets kicked.

Pilot Injured in South Hillsborough Plane Crash
Published: Sunday, January 27, 2013 at 12:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 27, 2013 at 12:00 p.m.
An 83-year-old pilot from Bradenton was airlifted to a local hospital Sunday after his plane crashed into a cow pasture off U.S. Highway 41 in southern Hillsborough County.
At about 9:30 a.m., Eugene Massa took off from Airport Manatee in Palmetto. He was flying a small experimental ultralight fixed-wing plane, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office said.
When he reached about 300 feet in altitude, he started having engine problems. He crashed in a pasture at 6528 Highway 41, near the Manatee County line, about 500 feet off the highway.
When rescue units arrived, they found Massa "alert and talking," the Sheriff's Office said. He was the only person in the plane, and authorities airlifted him to Blake Medical Center in Bradenton.
The remainder of the investigation will be conducted by the Federal Aviation Administration.

Financial Aid
Financial Aid is a partnership between the student and the college which provides funding to help individuals obtain their educational goals. Those receiving Financial Aid are expected to enroll in courses needed to achieve their educational objective, work hard and learn, and move progressively toward successful completion of their educational goal.
Work with the financial aid office to make sure you meet the requirements and deadlines for all the financial aid programs for which you are applying. File your financial aid application (FAFSA) as soon as possible after January 1st. Talk to the financial aid office about priority deadlines and other important dates. To apply for most financial aid, you'll need to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA. Whether you apply on paper or electronically (www.fafsa.ed.gov), you should file only one FAFSA a year. Carefully review the instructions and complete the FAFSA accurately. Any mistakes will only delay the processing of your application. Be sure to keep a photocopy or a printout of your application. Also, save all the financial records you used to complete the FAFSA and your worksheets, because you may need them later if you're asked to verify any information.
The Lassen Community College school code is 001217. You will need this school code on your FAFSA application in order for your FAFSA information to be transmitted to the school. If you are a brand new student to Lassen Community College you must complete an Application for Admissions before your FAFSA will be transmitted. Within four weeks of filing your FAFSA, or sooner if you filed electronically, you'll receive your Student Aid Report, or SAR. The SAR will report the information you provided on the FAFSA. If you do not receive your SAR within four weeks, or if you need another copy, call 1.800.433.3243 or check online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.

Trey's voice is a little hoarse in spots at this show, but the energy level is extremely high. In fact, Trey is so possessed that it feels in spots like the band is playing catch up. The SOAM in the first set is a good example of this, a boisterous and frenzied version that never strays from the theme. Mango is spiffy, but Sloth suffers a bit from Trey's hoarseness. Maze is the other first set highlight, a blistering tour-de-force that's all Trey shred and little nuance. No complaints.
The energy levels stay elevated with the Bag second-set opener, again with Trey racing out ahead of the band. It's barely over before the opening notes of Reba kick in.
This Reba has about 3 minutes of an outstanding ascending jamming, a great exploration, wiith Trey getting stuck on a single lick as the band builds behind him. Unfortunately, it cuts off a little abruptly-- no whistling, just blam! Done. I'd still rate it higher than the jamming chart on this site.
Mule doesn't move me on recordings -- I believe it's a song best appreciated in person so you get the visual accompaniment of the duel. Page's soloing is melodious here, however.
The Bowie is the highlight of the show, another energetic, rocking version. It doesn't get deep and dark or really far out there, but brings the thunder with a rock and roll vibe. Stunningly fierce, a joy to listen to.
The quiet section of Slave has Trey repeating the same lick over and over, but some feedback on the buildup mars a solid version. Pages stab at the Star Trek Theme on the theramin before the encore is interesting, but not quite there. I dont think many in the audience knew what he was playing.
A very energetic night, with lots of great moments and a song selection with almost no slow selections. The Maze, the last few minutes of Reba and the Bowie in particular will remind you that this is a well-oiled band clearly approaching a pinnacle. That zenith came two weeks later at the Clifford Ball, an unforgettable weekend that I feel privileged to have attended.

FELTON -- Of all the bigfoot museums James "Bobo" Fay has visited, the Bigfoot Discovery Museum and its founder, Michael Rugg, stand out.
"It's the best one," Fay said. "Mike has been collecting since 1951. He's a smart dude."
Hundreds of people waited in a line snaking around the Bigfoot Discovery Museum on Monday to meet the cast of the Animal Planet show "Finding Bigfoot."
The show follows four investigators -- Bigfoot Field Research Organization president Matt Moneymaker, researchers Fay and Cliff Barackman, and skeptical scientist Ranae Holland -- as they travel the globe looking for the creature.
The show premiered in 2011, and its fourth season will air beginning Nov. 10.
If the cast of "Finding Bigfoot" feels comfortable in one place, it's probably the Bigfoot Discovery Museum. Rugg opened the museum in June 2006 with the purpose of educating the public and showcasing evidence that could point to the existence of Bigfoot. The Highway 9 venue is stocked with video footage of alleged Bigfoot sightings, as well as anthropology books, periodicals and audio tapes used as evidence that the legendary creature may be real.
"We want to help Mike," Barackman said. "He's been a central figure and an old friend. He's a great guy."
The cast members contacted Rugg, and the event was organized last week.
"This event just kind of happened," Rugg said. "They said, 'How about we come down to your neck of the woods?'"
Despite the last-minute scheduling, people swarmed the small museum.
Makayla Drensen, 10, came with her father, brother and friend because they're all avid fans of the show. They also found what they believe to be a Bigfoot footprint at Quail Hollow, which they made a cast of and donated to the museum."I think he's real because all of the evidence people found trying to find him," Makayla said.
And she wants everyone else to believe it, too.
"Ranae and Bobo are awesome. And Cliff. And Matt," she said. "Everyone in the world needs to know about them."

November 5, 2006
Your home is the one place you should feel the safest, but it can also be the place where you become a victim.
According to the FBI, a burglary occurs every 15.4 seconds across the country.
Are you doing everything you can to keep you and your family safe?
In this Special Assignment, News 12 consults an expert: a former convicted burglar.
Your home is your castle...and what may have taken you years to acquire can be gone in just seconds.
Meet a man we'll call Bob We've changed his name and distorted his face because he agreed to help us with our story only if we masked his identity.
He's a twice convicted burglar who used to make a living robbing other people's homes.
Call it redemption or even just his own way of giving back to the dozens of strangers he's victimized...either way, he's agreed to reveal his strategies.
But before we let him show us how he did it, meet Jimmy: a homeowner who's had more than his share of burglaries.
"Unfortunately you get used to it sometimes," he says.
He's had his home broken into not just once or twice, but four different times.
"You're being violated," he says. "This is your safe haven for you and your family."
After taking all of the precautionary measures he could think of, he's ready for a professional criminal to offer his advice.
"I'd be interested to find out what else I can do to make it safer for my family."
After both parties agreed, we let Bob get straight to work.
The first thing he does might sound a little strange, especially for someone trying to be incognito.
"I'd walk up and ring the doorbell."
He says if someone's home, he will make up a story and move onto a different house.
"Don't you want someone home, though, so you can find out exactly where their prized possessions are?" we asked.
"No, because then you put your life in danger."
So how does he get in, you ask?
First, he takes us straight to the back door.
"I'd go around back to a secluded area where no one would see me."
He's armed with no special tools or clever techniques...just a little fancy footwork instead.
"I'd take this door, put my foot up to it and kick it in," he said. "Kick it wide open."
"So would you say the deadbolt is useless?" we asked.
"Yeah, useless."
Bob says 90% of the convicts he knows used the same exact tactic.
"The door panel is so flimsy and light, you kick it and it cracks and comes right open."
Bob says installing a metal door frame is an easy fix.
Once Bob's past the door, he says he's got ten minutes to get what he can.
"I'm going to get anything that's new I can get money for."
And like any good thief, he's going straight for the big ticket items.
"I'm going to look for the master bedroom and get jewelry boxes left open, computers..."
He says the easiest way to prevent your precious metals from leaving the house is to make it a little more complicated for him, like hiding it in a good spot.
"The burglar isn't going to take too much time looking for it. He's going to go where everything's quick, in eyeball reach."
So what does it take to keep guys like him out?
It's a lot less complicated than you might think.
He says all you need are the help of some lights and a tiny little sign.
"I'd walk around the house and look real good. If I thought the house had an alarm, or lights come on when you walk around, I wouldn't even mess with it."
Lt. Tony Walden at the Richmond County Sheriff's Office says he sees about 250 burglaries every month, and the one security measure both he and the convict agree works the best is a high-pitched alarm.
"I don't care what type of alarm you get, but get one that has the loudest siren, because I've found that's more effective in running people off," Lt. Walden said.
And the same tried and true method that's worked for him all those years by simply kicking down the door also worked for a fellow criminal on none other than Bob himself.
"I had somebody kick my door in, load my stuff in my truck, and take my truck too."
Maybe the old saying 'What goes around, comes around' is true after all.
There are other things you can do to avoid being burglarized. Try to keep a car in the driveway at all times; it's the first sign someone's home.
If you can't do that, at least leave a TV or radio on while you're away.

The file is: The.Lord.Of.The.Rings.The.Return.Of.The.King.2003.1080p.x264-THOR.mkv (8.3 GB)
When i play it on the PC (with VLC) it has a lot of subs (swedish, danish, finland, etc, etc
When i strem it to my PS3 with PS3 Media Server, i only get English subs
I have tryed everything, adding dan, dk, unk, emb to the subs in PS3 Media Server settings, but nothing helps.
But i guess i know part of the problem...... When i choose "stream and media info" in VLC the only difference between a working MKV movie and one that dosent give subs is that the Codex is SPU (not working) - if the codex if the MKV file is SUBT, then the subtitels are working just fine.
Anybodys got a solution ???

Letters: North County, Feb. 26, 2013
Gun control and drones
William Lyons, on Feb. 15 ("Drone control?"), asks gun control people how we feel about President Obama's drone program.
I believe in gun control and I oppose the drone program. ...
In true fact, I oppose any warfare except against an invading violent army.
I honor our young people, whose love of country leads them to volunteer their lives to protect our nation. I do not honor the armchair war lovers who, in their desperation to achieve manhood, lie us into conflicts with tiny nations, sending those same young patriots into bodily harm.
I support Chuck Hagel as secretary of defense and, like him, I am not afraid of either Iran or North Korea or any other nation in the whole world.
War is so over.
Dolores Welty
God, religion and atheists
I'd like to add a new perspective regarding God (our creator), religions and atheism.
The creator is all-encompassing and all religions are strictly a human thing. You can be "secular" and still believe in a creator. Atheism is just another form of religion. A belief is just what it is, a belief. When atheists can explain how the universe came to be, and what existed before, and replicate any life form from inorganic material, then atheism will have legitimacy. ...
The courts shouldn't be used to bully one's beliefs on anyone else.
Rich Hughes
The sad state of the union
The latest state of the union address showed once again the hollowness of President Obama's rhetoric and the continued deception of the American people that characterizes his agenda.
His themes: jobs and growth, the economy, universal early education, raising the minimum wage, repairing the global climate and hard work gets rewarded.
The reality is far different. History shows that raising the minimum wage results in higher unemployment — small businesses cannot afford to pay more and hire more. ... Universal early education has already cost the nation billions and the statistical results are nearly nonexistent. Fixing the nation's infrastructure was supposed to be paid for by the stimulus money. What happened to the billions earmarked for infrastructure? Oh, that's right, it went to saving union jobs and the green energy scam.
Rewarding hard work is the last thing on Obama's mind. He is more concerned about increasing taxes to punish the productive workers and transfer their wealth to those whose hands are outstretched for more government freebies. By stating none of his proposals will cost a dime, Obama is again misleading the American people. ...
Josef Horowitz
A literal interpretation of the Second Amendment
Craig Vansant ("Words have meanings," Feb. 15) wants to use literal interpretations from the 18th century to justify the right of unlimited gun ownership.
So, let's take his own words to their logical conclusion. First, as he states, the right to bear arms is endowed upon males between 18 and 45. That means that no one under the age of 18, or over the age of 45, has the right to bear arms. It also means that no women can own a gun. Second, let's use his same literal logic with the meaning of 18th century words, and interpret the meaning of "arms." In the 18th century, the only "arms" available were single-shot, manually-loaded pistols or blunderbusses, and, of course, canons. So that appears to be what the Second Amendment was referring to.
The conclusion of his argument is that the Second Amendment confers the right to bear single-shot, manually-loaded pistols or blunderbusses or single-shot rifles on males between the age of 18 and 45. I'd go along with that, and even throw in the canons.
Philip Kirk
It is depressing to see all the uproar over the supposed drastic spending cuts mandated by the "sequestration." It is my understanding that if it happens, there will be no reduction in spending from present levels.
Due to the deception of "baseline budgeting," what is being contemplated is a reduction in the rate of increase over the next 10 years. This is how government justifies ever larger budgets each year. We need real reductions in spending if we are ever to get the budget under control and reduce our overwhelming national debt.
If a program cannot survive on what it spent this year, then perhaps it needs to be done away with. The scare tactics used by the administration are simply untrue. I would hope that the U-T North County Times would accurately report this debate. ...
Roger Borst
In-depth information on bullet train needed
I keep reading small bits of information on the bullet train. All I can visualize is gallons of red ink. I think readers of the U-T North County Times deserve an in-depth article, one that starts with outlining the finances of the present San Diego/Amtrak system. How many riders are average on weekdays and holidays? What is the fare structure and what are the expenses? How much do the freight carriers pay or get paid for the tracks and upkeep? We readers need a real budget picture, like we were running the business. That would give us a real-time financial picture.
Then we need to see the big picture. What will the realistic construction costs be, including the high speed rail route through the mountains (ridge route)? What are the projected timelines of construction and predictions of passenger loads? Are you getting the idea of what we need?
If you can do a good job, the data should be repeated often enough so that the usual uninformed will perhaps learn from repetition. ...

"This format worked well to put all of our directions / party rules (for a white elephant gift exchange) on the back of the postcard. It really turned out adorable!"
"this was my first time to order cards on line- I had a million questions, your customer service was outstanding. - very helpful and polite. when I received the cards there was a problem - Your customer rep took care of the problem and sent out corrected card immediately. You guys do a great job and I would certainly recommend Tinyprints to anyone. thank you Cathy Baker"
"This is a great card, the quality the print, the colors. My only wish was that I was able to add additional details regarding the event. You are limited to the 3 lines on the front of the invitation."
"I ordered this for an office holiday party and was so happy with the order. It arrived a day earlier than expected, with email notices keeping me in the loop of their progress to our door."
"This is a very nice design that required little alteration from the original sample. I did change the party details from red font to green as the red was a little hard to read and the green helped it stand out a bit better against the black background. I really like the size of these invitations as they won't get lost in the mail and are easy to read. The design was also an easy match for stock Avery address labels so it was simple to create affordable matching labels."
