Location: Corn Insects and Crop Genetics Research
Project Number: 5030-21000-063-08
Start Date: May 25, 2011
End Date: Jul 31, 2015
Conduct joint trials using locations in the eastern Corn Belt and Southwestern USA and using the improved breeding populations that each breeder has developed. In year one each breeder will submit approximately 10 populations, thereafter the best performing populations will be retested while additional populations from the breeders' programs or acquired elsewhere are evaluated. Identify and test superior parents on a somewhat continuous basis, so there is a constant flow of our best hybrids to farmers and seed companies for testing and increase. Make numerous crosses between parents with desired traits, hybridizing those crosses with multiple testers, examining the hybrid test crosses in yield trials and thereby identifying the best crosses to work with, then selfing the best of those families to the S3 stage while systematically testing resulting lines in test crosses. The best S3 lines will be further tested, selected, and developed as inbreds for making hybrids or recombined to make synthetics which will receive additional testing to identify those that best fit the organic ideotype. Because speed is essential we plan to do early and repeated testing for combining ability in top cross hybrids allowing resources to be devoted to those populations that demonstrate the greatest potential early on. Winter nurseries will be used to make new crosses, to self F2 plants, to make necessary topcrosses, and to self the summer's topcrosses to test their grain quality. Experimental hybrids from the breeding programs will be tested in small replicated plot trials at cooperating organic farms managed by the breeder. In addition, selected varieties from the plot trials will be tested in large strip-trial plots on farms. Breeding lines will be evaluated for stress and pest resistance in breeding nurseries and specialized testing will be done at a stress nursery in Illinois and New Mexico.

I'm trying to remain calm. I'm trying not to say or do anything stupid--which can oftentimes be a real challenge for yours truly. But I picked little Pooh up from daycare at the normal designated time last night only to get home with a baby on fire!
That's what the thermometer read.
What? Nobody in daycare noticed? Nobody felt the need to call the girl's parents?!
We're all burning up today.
Pooh with fever. Her parents in fury.

It may be that the daycare peeps are apathetic weasels.
But it is also true that temperatures tend to rise as the day progresses.

Oh, I am so sorry. Did you stick her in a lukewarm tub? That can take it down.

She's got a double dose of ear infection. So, I'm guessing the next few days are going to be rough. We'll see.
Shani, you're right. Her temperature could've risen on the drive home. It's just that she was crying when I picked her up yesterday. And, well, it's her first month in daycare. I'm ready to be angry with them at the drop of a hat. Something I need to work through, I guess.

Since I while back, I've been using the task manager to quickly see if there
are any suspicious processes running. Truthfully, it was after having
discovered the site [url]www.processlibrary.com[/url] that I started doing it more
systematized (since they have a database with "recognized" databases).
Notice the quotation marks, for that's what my question is about... Is it
quite sure that you can identify processes/applications on a one-to-one
basis using just the "Image name" (most left pane in the process tab, task
manager)? It seems unlikely, since the names look like common executables.
If anyone could enlighten me on this topic, I'd be grateful. Also, don't
hesitate to point out some in-depth tech information on processes. Since I
do some programming, I'd love to get my hands on the system tech. behind
this. I did look around but only found "high level" stuff on the MS
developer site as well as in the API functions library.

I recently tried brasero for first time, and was surprised to see the
Hitachi drive in this Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop flagged as *Not Writable* by
the burner application. Surprised because I'd never had trouble with this
drive and any other Linux I've tried, including Edgy. (I now have Mint
The drive is mounted, and can play cd's and dvd's fine. I just cannot write
to it. I've only tried one brand of CD r/w so far.
Here is the relevant section of lshw:
description: DVD reader
product: RW/DVD GCC-4241N

And this is the entry in /etc/fstab:

Has anyone heard of a problem with this drive? Or perhaps the configuration
is incorrect?

I have heard enough of the Obama clan and their subservient toadies accusing all, who don't subscribe to their radical raping of the USA, as waging war on some facet of American life.
Websters defines war as, "A state of hostility, conflict or antagonism."
The temporary residents of the White House, along with their: socialists, Marxists, hate preachers, terrorists bombers, racists, race baiters, environmental wackos, baby murderers, hopeful issuers of death sentence to the elderly and infirm, financial thieves, deceivers and godless attackers of the faithful, liars, islam lovers, Constitution defilers, treasonous fanatics, women haters, child haters, in their pocket press and politicians, and homosexual agenda movers, are conducting open warfare on every aspect of American life.
These evil people, through their actions, have declared war on God, women, men, children, unborn children, elderly, the infirm and disabled, the Constitution, the economy, the financial sector, health care, border security, fair elections, truth, and every other facet of American society. They just keep attacking and taking more control over American lives. Remember the saying, "Absolute power corrupts absolutely." This is their goal. These evil doers are led by the likes of Obama, Biden, Holder, Sherrod Brown, Rockefeller, and Charlie Wilson, who wants to be reelected to continue his fawning at the feet of the Democrat so-called leaders. Please open your eyes and ears to what is happening in our once great nation. We can change the tide of downfall this November, but if truth and honesty fails to win, this nation will very likely be lost forever.
If you have access to the Fox News network, tune in and learn. Fox News is about the only agency that provides both sides of the issues. The so-called mainstream media all seem to be falling all over themselves to become the official lackeys of a hoped for USA (United Socialists of America.
Thank you all for taking time to read this letter.

To think all of Coach handbags praise came from the decision to improve the once failing look of the Coach Ergo Collections. History may have been written differently if a new Coach Hamptons look was not brought to market.

This is Tony. He's pretty.
But he is a hairy guy.
I have created small animals with his excess hair.
But I have not been able to control his hair, because he is a hair freak and because I am lazy. I do not want to brush him every day. I hate to vacuum. A lot. So I go walking through the house, plucking wads of Tony-hair off the floor.
Then the Furminator lady caught up with me. I guess she thought Tony and I would be good candidates for her product. So I decided to give it a try.
The tools for the job: The Furminator. A shampoo and a conditioner. A spray. And even dog cookies. All to encourage hair removal.
Tony says yay for the cookies. They didn't look tasty, but he enjoyed them.
Next I gave Tony a bath with the shampoo and conditioner.
We are not having fun. Tony was disgusted that he had to stand for a few minutes after both applications.
The word for this is ugh. Wet dog hair.
Then the dog must be dry before using the Furminator.
I didn't want to have to blow dry him, so I toweled him as much as I could and we waited until the next day. Using the wonders of time-lapse photography, Tony is now dry.
And I am brushing him. He didn't mind this much, but I had to be careful
not to get excited and press down too hard.
Tony is an old dog, and he has some lumps and bumps that can grate against the metal of the brush. Like the ads said, hair falls off the dog. But it takes time. I brushed Tony for three sessions before I got his coat down to a reasonably non-hairy level. I guess it depends on the dog.
Tony is very productive. This is one session of brushing. Each time, equal amounts of hair were removed.
I pretended I was a sheep shearer in New Zealand. Except I didn't flip Tony.
He would have bitten me.
The finished product. He's clean, happy and relatively unhairy. My verdict? This is a good product and worth the $20 to $35 you'll spend for the most basic Furminator.
But you musn't be a Pollyanna. You are still going to have to brush
your dog. It will just be easier for you to do, especially if you buy into the sheepshearer fantasy.
This is the resulting furball. What should I sculpt this time?

Retired from the Department of Chemistry
University of Northern Iowa
Cedar Falls, IA 50614-0423
E-mail: email@example.com
My interests are in the areas of Environmental Chemistry and Chemistry Education.
In collaboration with Dr. Bartak, we have recently began a program to monitor volatile organic compounds (VOC's) using a field transportable Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometer. Path lengths of the order of a few hundred meters are typical. Measurements are taken down wind from the source of the VOC. Parameters that can affect the technique are wind, path length, temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, carbon dioxide concentration, and air borne particulates. This instrument was acquired by funds from the Iowa Waste Reduction Center.
The initial stages of this research involve the controlled release of VOC's and their qualitative and quantitative determination with the transportable FT-IR. Data from the transportable FT-IR is then compared to determinations by other methods. This can be followed by the measurement of uncontrolled releases of VOC's at documented sights. These steps are necessary to validate the qualitative and quantitative potential of the FT-IR.
Finally, measurements are taken of uncontrolled VOC releases at sites with little or no precharacterization. Examples of these are production facilities, waste disposal areas, natural gas storage facilities, gasoline stations, and power generating facilities.
The use of a field transportable FT-IR appears promising. Initial studies indicate somewhat lower VOC concentrations than determined by other methods. The determination of aromatic compounds is especially difficult due to interference from water vapor. These difficulties are more than offset by the versatility of the technique.
My second interest is in the area of developing new demonstrations which can be used to illustrate important chemical principles. Two recent examples are demonstrations to show zero and first order kinetics. These particular demonstrations allow a student to easily collect data in a classroom setting, plot data, and graphically determine reaction order.

Home » Blogs » Padres Scorecard »
Wolf knows about pitch counts
Written by | Bill Center | 11:02 a.m., Apr 16, 2008
It is the moot but burning question of the day among Padres fans.
Had Randy Wolf completed seven innings with no hits Tuesday night, should he have been allowed to continue although his pitch count had already reached 112?
Padres manager Bud Black said no -- given that Tuesday was only Wolf's third start of the season ... and since he had shoulder surgery. And Wolf said he agreed with Black's decision. With reason.
High pitch counts early in his career might be a factor in Wolf's career not fully developing. At least that is a conclusion draw by Baseball Prospectus, which charts these issues.
Wolf threw 107 pitches in his major league debut June 11, 1999, at the age of 22. During his rookie season, he threw more than 100 pitches in 17 of his 20 starts and topped 120 pitches three times. The following season, Wolf threw more than 100 pitches in 27 of his 32 starts and more than 120 in 11 starts. At the end of the season, Baseball Prospectus ranked him the fifth-most abused pitcher in the majors.
In 2002, Wolf, who had elbow tendinitis in the spring, threw 509 pitches over a four-game stretch. Things began to unravel in 2003. After an 11-5 start with a 3.07 ERA, he threw 132 pitches in a shutout on July 23, then allowed 33 runs over 30 innings in his next six starts.

Town steps up disaster prep, uses social media
Bethel looks at emergency preparedness
A Vermont town hit hard by Tropical Storm Irene two years ago wants to be ready the next time disaster strikes.
So people in Bethel are stepping up their emergency preparedness on several fronts, including public education, local self-help and strengthening the town's emergency management program.
The public education front includes visits by a town emergency management cadre to every home in Bethel to provide families with information and guidance regarding risk mitigation, personal preparation and the basic elements of Bethel's emergency management plan and structure.
There are also tools to improve communications during disasters. One is a free smartphone app with which someone can send a message about a specific emergency need and have it show up on a web-based map at the emergency command post.

Comments about Blick No. 12 Heavy Weight Cotton Canvas Rolls:
Purchased an 84" x 10yd roll of canvas. Shipping was under $5! Pretty impossible to beat that. Ordered on Friday, delivered on Tuesday. Amazing. I love Dick Blick shipping so much I visited the DC in Galesberg just to let them know how awesome of a job they are doing (and visit the outlet store). You guys are amazing!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great product

I use the canvas in my daily painting work. Perfect size.
Just what I expected
By Ken the scupltor
from St. George, UT
I stretched this canvas over a board to use as a ceramic wedging table. It worked just fine. The canvas seems sturdy enough to last me a while. It's exactly what I expected it to be.

Excellent Product
By Giraffe
from New York, NY
I use the product for wall hangings, without stretchers. Most canvas I have ordered from other suppliers is woven imperfectly, so that it doesn't hang straight, but curves. Thus, it's not usable for what I do. This canvas is wonderful! Also, I asked for special care so that the canvas was rolled very carefully and packaged for shipping so that it would not get creased, etc. Blick's came through for me!
By Whit
from Chicago
This was my first time using unprimed canvas and I love it. It was very affordable for the size and weight of the canvas. I don't like the creases only because I'm not classically trained and didn't know how to get rid of them, but I will do better next time.
Well packed.
By James
The canvas comes rolled neatly on a tube and covered in brown paper.
I got a canvas blanket instead of a roll
By Jeffy
from Tampa, FL
I bought this canvas from the roll section. But I received a blanket. I need rolls because I use a jig that holds the rolls so I can pull them over my frames. I needed a large piece for a project I was commissioned to do. When it arrived in blanket form I contacted customer service with pictures and they said there was no problem. The problem is I ordered a roll NOT a blanket. Even though the product says ROLL. My project was time sensitive so I had to use what I had. After about 3 hours of ironing the creases still wouldn't come out. I thought stretching it would help but it didn't. This is the reason I require rolls. Even though it was a large piece it was only 4' wide so there was no reason it couldn't come in roll form. Long story short I painted on it to see if it would help cover the creases and it didn't. I lost my commission for the piece and now I'm stuck with it. I don't like wasting money and this is the first problem that I've had with Blick. I just don't think the product should be labeled as a roll when it ships as a blanket.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Merchant response: Thank you for your review. Small lengths of unprimed canvas may be shipped folded, but if you need it to be rolled, we're happy to accommodate that request. Just add a note under the "special instructions" area of our online checkout, or tell an order taker when you order over the phone at 1-800-447-8192.
Quality For Less
By BigJair
from Canon City, CO
I like the use of this canvas because of its heavyness and the rougher texture. I buy it in bulk enough to last me for almost a year during what I call Painting season.
What you'd expect
By Chrissy
from New york, New York
Exactly what you would expect. Shipped fast and showed up in great condition.
Revised opinion
By JoAnn Painter
from Houston TX
After my first review, customer service contacted me, by email this time, and said that, yes, this canvas should have been shipped as a single piece rather than the one-yard segments that I received. They apologized for the error, replaced my order, followed up with another email, all to my satisfaction. Nevertheless, I think I would order roll canvas by phone in the future, just to make it clear that I want one continuous piece.The canvas itself is heavy duty and tightly woven -- exactly what I was looking for.

A Southern California wildfire that destroyed eight homes has been fully contained.
Riverside County fire Captain Fernando Herrera says the blaze that consumed 340 acres east of Temecula near Vail Lake was surrounded Sunday night. He says residents have been allowed to return to the approximately 30 homes near Highway 79 that were evacuated Saturday afternoon when the fire broke out.
The fire also destroyed three outbuildings, eight vehicles, two boats and a motor home.
Meanwhile, air crews continued to drop retardant on the massive wildfire burning in the forest north of Los Angeles in anticipation of hot, dry winds moving into the area this week.
The arson-caused fire, which erupted Aug. 26, was 93 percent contained. It has destroyed 89 homes, caused two firefighter deaths and scorched nearly 281 square miles.

Latest Anagnorisis News
Below is our complete Anagnorisis news coverage, including columns and articles pertaining to the band. Some articles listed may be indirectly related, such as side projects of the band members, etc.
Anagnorisis Reveals New Album Details
Louisville, Kentucky-based black metal sect Anagnorisis this week announces the title and additional info on an upcoming LP, which is being completed for fall release.
Having recently completed the drum tracking, a brief trailer from the sessions at the mammoth The Tracking Room Studios has been issued. Check out the studio report below.
Further delving into ancient Greek texts for inspiration, the new Anagnorisis record bears the title "Peripeteia." While the bulk of the recording for "Peripeteia" was engineered by guitarist Zak Denham at his home studio, newly recruited drummer Cody McCoy (Cerná, Boreworm) recently tracked drums for the record at the massive The Tracking Room Studios in Nashville (Megadeth, Deep Purple, King Crimson, Taylor Swift).
Issues Anagnorisis on the concept of the new album, "'Peripeteia' is a story over thirty years in the making; a tale not just based on our vocalist Zachary Kerr's life... it is his life. We choose the title to complete the cycle, both literally and figuratively, on our narrative started on Beyond All Light, and to reference our namesake, the concept of anagnorisis. 'Peripeteia' is the reversal, the turning point, the moment immediately preceding the crucial discovery (anagnorisis). We've taken all of the hope, fear, loss, joy, anger and turned it into fifty-four minutes of music that we are excited to share with all of you this Autumn."
New album "Peripeteia" will see a fall release on LP and CD through Germany-based Vendetta Records, on cassette through Yehonala in Europe and Like Young Records in the US, and all digital formats. More...
Anagnorisis Recording New Album
Following a year of silence, the Louisville, Kentucky-based black metal legion Anagnorisis now announces a triumphant return to action, as the band is currently heavily entrenched in the pre-production for an impending third album, and will be hitting the studio this weekend to begin the bulk of the actual tracking.
Anagnorisis is currently more than two-thirds of the way through the pre-production of the next full-length chapter, having finished all of the song structures and laid down most of the keys, guitars, and bass, and currently in the process of recording vocals.
Joining the band for the recording sessions is drummer Cody McCody, also of Cerná, Boreworm, and others. The Anagnorisis lineup is currently completed with vocalist Zachary Kerr, keyboardist Samuel Hartman, guitarist Zak Denham, and bassist Josh Mumford.
This Friday, Anagnorisis will enter The Tracking Room Studios in Nashville (Megadeth, Deep Purple, King Crimson, Taylor Swift) to track the drums for the new album. The rest of the recording will be engineered by Denham at his home studio where the band recorded previous LP "Beyond All Light." More...
Shadow Woods Metal Fest Changes Location
The inaugural September installation of Shadow Woods Metal Fest, the new open-air camping metal fest, has moved slightly Southeast, from its initial placement in Southern Pennsylvania to White Hall in Harford County, Maryland.
Set to take place September 25th - 27th, 2015, the new location of Shadow Woods Metal Fest is similar to the previous site, with deep woods, cabins and tent camping fields, yet is slightly closer to both Baltimore and Philadelphia, making it even more accessible to East Coast metallers planning on attending the diverse three-day festival.
Since initial announcements, Menace Ruine dropped from the lineup and was replaced by Black Table, yet the remainder of the Shadow Woods Metal Fest lineup remains the same, including lead performances from Midnight, Falls of Rauros, Occultation, Velnias, Iron Man, Anagnorisis, The Flight of Sleipnir and Stone Breath, along with twenty-six additional acts. The fest is also likely to be the first live performance for the surviving members of Wormreich since the tragic vehicle crash in April.
There will be ZERO ticket sales at the gate for the festival -- advance presales to those 21 years of age and older is the only way into the fest, and is still BYOB. The lineup consists of: More...
Shadows Woods Metal Fest Lineup Revealed
The concept of the open air heavy metal music and camping fest, so popular in Europe, seems to be a rarity in America. The organizers of the Shadow Woods Metal Fest hope to change that with the inaugural edition of the festival happening September 25th - 27th, 2015 in Fannettsburg, Pennsylvania in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains.
Shadow Woods Metal Fest features lead performances from Midnight, Falls of Rauros, Occultation, Menace Ruine, Velnias, Iron Man, Anagnorisis, The Flight of Sleipnir and Stone Breath along with twenty-seven additional acts throughout the event.
The fest showcases underground black, doom, death, and noise and experimental metal bands on two alternating stages all day Friday and Saturday. Camping and workshops on topics such as runes, guitar maintenance, yoga and more will be offered and are included in the ticket price. Artists and record labels will be vending alongside several onsite food stands. The festival is BYOB and age restricted to 21+.
To keep the fest intimate, only 350 tickets will be sold, and the fest is already 1/3 sold out. Tickets are $92 (plus a 99 cent processing fee). A limited number of group cabins will also be available. The lineup is as follows: More...
Anagnorisis Splits With Drummer
Louisville, Kentucky's Anagnorisis has just been confirmed to perform at this weekend's massive Gilead Festival in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
Joining the likes of The Body, Thou, Wolvserpent, Barghest, Uzala, Sea Of Bones, Kowloon Walled City, Loss, Mutilation Rites, Owlfood and many others on the three-day gathering, Anagnorisis takes Inter Arma's spot in the wake of the band being forced to cancel tour dates.

Anagnorisis Posts More Behind-The-Scenes Video
Due to the ongoing demand from European fans wanting to experience "Beyond All Light," the 2013 album from Kentucky-based black metal entity Anagnorisis, the band will reissue a cassette edition of the album via Berlin-based Yehonala Records in the coming weeks.
While Anagnorisis already released an extensive behind the scenes look at the inception and construction of "Beyond All Light" in conjunction with its release last Summer, a second installment video has just been released. Initially only available on the DVD which accompanied the special edition LP version of "Beyond All Light," the second film travels further into each member's own theologies, the album's lyrical basis, and personal experiences which helped lay the inspirational foundation for the record.

Anagnorisis Reveals New Album Details
Louisville's black metal horde Anagnorisis is preparing for the scorching Summer unleashing of its first new full-length since 2007's "Overton Trees," as the band's massive sophomore LP "Beyond All Light" nears release. The following press release was issued about the album:
"Thunderously capturing Anagnorisis' most expansive material to date, 'Beyond All Light' was meticulously recorded by the band and mixed by guitarist Zak Denham and his One by One Studios, and then mastered by Brian Lueken at Decibel Mastering.
"The two-part LP is broken into two segments, each act featuring three massive songs overall encompassing nearly fifty minutes. The band's already classically-influenced but forward-thinking approach to black metal ventures into new territories, and while skeletal elements of their earlier material shrouds the material, more orchestral and atmospheric elements penetrate the band's wickedest, blazing attacks ever.
"While comparisons to notable bands like Nachtmystium, Emperor, Summoning and Drudkh can be made, Anagnorisis weave their own unique visions and configurations into their songcraft, creating a wholly engaging, epic atmosphere."
Today Heavy Blog Is Heavy is hosting a stream of the first single from "Beyond All Light," with the album opening anthem "Eulerian Path." Stream it in the player below. More...
Anagnorisis Finishes New Album
Louisville, Kentucky-based black metal perpetrators Anagnorisis have completed the recording of their second LP, and the beast is now in the final stages of preparation before being cast upon the populous this Summer. The following press release was issued about the band:
"Based on a Greek phrase for 'discovery,' Anagnorisis was founded in 2003 by Austin Lunn (Panopticon), and the act set out to experiment with merging symphonic and death-infused black metal styles. They recorded the debut album Overton Trees and released it in 2007, the album instantly gaining the band a widespread following beyond the local sector, to which they tormented with live attacks. Lunn moved on and several other lineup changes took shape over the following years since, with the band releasing two EP's released in the interim – 2009's Alpha & Omega, and 2012's Ghosts Of Our Fathers – with each new incarnation and new recording showing new innovations and expansions on their thesis, and their blackened metal continually taking the form of something more insidious.
"Their first full-length since 2007, Anagnorisis now confirms the title of the new opus as 'Beyond All Light,' the album containing the band's most expansive material to date, following months of production as the band recorded everything themselves at guitarist Zak Denham's own One by One Studios. Now completely harnessed, the masters have been passed to Ken Sorceron (Abigail Williams) who is currently handling mixing and mastering duties. The band will unleash Beyond All Light on their own in a plethora of configurations, including CD, LP, cassette and digital formats. Confirmed release dates will be announced in the coming days."

Anagnorisis Streaming New EP
Anagnorisis, the Louisville, KY-based black/death metal band, has released a new EP entitled "Ghost of Our Fathers," breaking the three year hiatus with a slew of shows planned for July and August, including a stint of dates with Abigail Williams. The songs can be heard in the player below, or over at bandcamp. The track listing is as follows:
1. Clan of Kerr
2. Only Suffering is Free
Anagnorisis also commented, "In the last three years, we have lost two men very close to us: Zachary's father James E. Kerr, and Samuel's step-father Robert C. Dayle. This two song release is a tribute to their memory. Ghost of Our Fathers is a look at the new era of Anagnorisis, while using the recurring themes of black and death metal that have defined our music over the past nine years.
"As the term 'anagnorisis' represents self-discovery and awareness, band members Zachary Kerr and Samuel Hartman each crafted the lyrics to the new songs – Clan of Kerr and Only Suffering is Free – fueled by the idea that each is a cleansing of the grief that comes with death. Musically we owe much to our guitarist, Zak Denham, who spent long hours writing, recording, and programming these songs. The music is intense, aggressive, and showcases the direction of our next full length planned for release in 2013.
"No one likes dormancy, and we give our heartfelt thanks to our fans that have stuck with us and waited patiently for the return of this band. Just as our lives would not be shaped without our fathers, our band's success would nothing without our supporters. Listen, download, and enjoy our new music as we march forward as a new, stronger Anagnorisis." More...
Anagnorisis Welcomes Back Drummer Adam Pierce
Kentucky metallers, Anagnorisis, have issued the following message welcoming drummer Adam Pierce back to the band:
"We are proud to announce the return of long time drummer Adam Pierce back to Anagnorisis. After departing from the band less than five months ago, Pierce has returned more eager than ever."
The official statement from Adam Pierce is as follows:
"I am proud to announce my return to Anagnorisis. After spending a short time in the Bay Area pursuing various musical endeavors, I am moving back to my hometown to plague the nation with my metal brothers. My first show back with the band will be October 20th in Louisville. Please check out our myspace for more details and be on the look out for our new EP. This EP is definitely an extreme step for Anagnorisis, but it will definitely turn some heads. We are pushing the limit more than ever, which is what this genre is all about."
Anagnorisis Drummer Leaves Band
Kentucky metallers, Anagnorisis, issue the following update:
"Adam Pierce, original drummer for Anagnorisis, will be leaving the band in June to pursue his life in California, and we are now beginning the search for his replacement. Interested parties should record themselves playing "The Great Divorce" and "Birth of the Pariah" - both available on our MySpace - and upload the files to YouTube or e-mail audio files to firstname.lastname@example.com. If you are seriously interested and do not have the equipment to record yourself, please contact us and we will work something out.
While Zak Denham has been handling both guitar duties since the departure of Austin Lunn, we would be happy to welcome a talented, professional guitarist into the fold. Following the example above, please record yourself playing both songs (rhythm parts only), if interested."
"This situation in no way affects any of our touring plans or shows, and Anagnorisis will continue to dominate in 2008. Nemesis Enforcer drummer Jake Denham will be filling in for Adam in June while a replacement is sought. Our current touring plans include the majority of the month of May - watch our Myspace for details. We are open for booking inquiries, so please contact us at myspace.com/anagnorisis or firstname.lastname@example.com for tour offers or with any other questions. Thank you." More...

Squares & TrianglesTriangles
The triangles in the mathematics collections illustrate the products sold by leading American makers of drawing instruments, including Darling, Brown & Sharpe of Providence, R.I.; and Keuffel & Esser of New York City. An American inventor, LeRoy J. Leishman, devised the Arcascope triangle and combination instrument. The objects on this page also show a transition from triangles made from steel, wood, and rubber to triangles made from plastic. The change in materials in the early 20th century has created a problem for preserving these instruments, as celluloid-based plastics are chemically unstable. Several of these objects are deteriorating despite efforts to store them in a controlled environment.

Darling, Brown & Sharpe Open Triangle
- Description
- This steel 45°-45°-90° triangle is 8" tall and has an open interior. A hole near one vertex is for hanging. The instrument is marked: Darling, Brown & Sharpe (/) Providence, R.I. The firm operated under that name from 1866 to 1892. (Compare to 1977.0460.08 and 1977.0460.09.) It advertised this triangle in 1868 for $4.50 and for $4.00 in 1887 and 1899 (when the company was known as Brown & Sharpe). In 1884 the Physical Laboratory of the University of California in Berkeley purchased a triangle of this type from Darling, Brown & Sharpe for $4.25.
- Erasmus Darwin Leavitt Jr. (1836–1916), the renowned American mechanical engineer and designer of steam engines, owned this triangle. It was donated to the Smithsonian by his granddaughter.

Center back Geoff Cameron, who might prove to be the starting center back for the U.S. at the 2014 World Cup, is already busy rehabbing the right knee MCL injury he suffered during the MLS Cup final.
He already has been cleared to run straight ahead, and he might be ready to cut on the knee by the end of next week.
Equally important, Cameron is adamant that he should be healthy and ready to go if U.S. national team coach Jurgen Klinsmann calls him into camp ahead of the friendlies in January.
I realize Omar Gonzalez of the L.A. Galaxy was the 2011 MLS Defender of the Year. I think he's a great center back, but I think Cameron is a more skillful and a better all-around center back. It would be great to see Cameron play against Venezuela next month.
Many of you have asked about Brian Ching, and I'm hearing the Dynamo and Montreal Impact haven't had any significant contact. From what I'm hearing, I wouldn't expect the Dynamo or Ching to be pushed into a rash decision.
Personally, I'm still hoping Ching calls Jesse March's bluff and shows up to the Impact's training camp. Ching has 450,000 reasons not to retire yet. Also keep in mind, that ownership has assured Ching that he has a job with the organization when he retires. Kudos to Gabriel Brener, Oscar De La Hoya and AEG President Tim Leiweke for backing Chris Canetti and Dominic Kinnear in their mutual wish to have Ching in the organization long after he hangs up the boots.
Also, it's clear the Dynamo are optimistic about selling out every game in their first year in the new stadium. Season-ticket sales are up by 60 percent from the 2011 season. Heck, I wouldn't even be shocked to see the Dynamo land a designated player in this upcoming January transfer window.
As I write this, I'm still waiting for Mexico to announce that it will play Venezuela at Reliant Stadium, which has been one of the best venues for international soccer matches in the Americas.
I've watched every game El Tri has played at Reliant Stadium, and I would expect another strong crowd on Jan. 25.
With the Dynamo's opening of the new stadium, the Dynamo's busy offseason, Cameron's potential bid with the U.S. national team and the upcoming Reliant match between Mexico and Venezuela, it seems as though 2012 has the potential to be another great soccer year in this soccer city.

VINCENT - Warren High School sophomore Braydon Johnson has a simple rationale for staying after school every Wednesday.
"I'm not allowed to take stuff apart at home and build things up from that," he said. "My mom doesn't like that."
But that sort of activity is encouraged in the Science Builders Group.

"We're basically a creativity lab. We teach the kids electronics ... and anything they want to learn," said Warren physics and science teacher Larry King, who has had a similar group under different names for about a decade. "A lot of it's playing together and playing with science in order to learn it."
About 10 students regularly participate in the group, which meets on Wednesday afternoons. They don't have to be in one of King's classes or meet any other requirements to join.
Sophomore Lilly Wintrow found an intersection of her interests in science and art when she joined last year.
"School is so repetitive to me. I don't like the monotony of everything," she said. "So coming here every Wednesday evening and utilizing what you learn in school is a good idea to me.
"It's not just a waste-your-time thing," Wintrow said.
The group meets in a room dubbed the "Makerspace" off a computer lab at the school. In addition to machines salvaged from the school's defunct industrial arts program, there are drawers and containers filled with small motors, telephone cable, switches, pieces of plastic and stainless steel; advanced Lego sets; and even a 1960s-era dental drill and light stand that King and the students hope to turn into a roving robot named Orin, after the dentist from "Little Shop of Horrors."
One of the newest and most cutting-edge additions to the club - and the school's -repertoire is a 3D printer, a device that can craft plastic items based on students' designs input into a computer.
The device, a MakerBot Replicator, was purchased last fall with funds from an AT&T STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) grant. Students in King's physics class have used it to make name tags, and a couple others even designed and fabricated Christmas presents with it. King and his students have also made whistles, frog and squirrel figurines and miniature versions of Dr. Who's Tardis as they explore the device's capabilities.
"Right now we're just making (items from) other people's plans and learning how to make our own," King said.
Previously used by hobbyists or heavy industry that could afford larger, more expensive models, 3D printers are becoming more commonplace, King said.
They could easily be something students use in future careers. In fact, he said officials from Micro Machine Works told him they usually have to train employees on such devices after they hire them.
King doesn't think 3D printing will completely overtake traditional manufacturing, but he has no difficulty envisioning a future where instead of buying an item at a store, a person downloads a design and "prints" it or has it printed somewhere.
The Replicator was bought for $2,000, and a newer model has since come out that can cost between $2,100 and $3,000. King said he'd like to add more devices, but is looking at a less expensive approach -building their own.
"That's kind of what we do," he said. "We make things."
The room's name, Makerspace, comes from an initiative of Make magazine and the federal Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency to establish makerspaces in 1,000 high schools. King said he liked the concept but didn't wait for a grant award to get the ball rolling.
A lot of the items in the school's makerspace are brought in by King himself, who volunteers at secondhand shops in Athens County. He's also considering selling some of the items made by the 3D printer, like skull-shaped piggy banks, to raise money for more plastic, which costs about $30 a spool.
In addition to King, students in the group are guided in their endeavors by Warren Township resident Mitch Maifield, 38, an electrical engineer. Maifield was recruited by a co-worker of his wife's at DuPont to help out in the local schools and soon found he and King could work well together.
Maifield said he wants to help create an experience for today's students that he would have appreciated as a youth.
"I wish I had had exposure to engineers when I was in high school," he said.
King wants to see the group's membership and activities grow. Toward that end, he's starting a new initiative called SCAM Lab, which stands for Science, Contraption and Amazing Machine Laboratory.
"SCAM Lab is eventually going to become an idea incubator," he said.
The concepts could be turned into actual products, with the 3D printer providing an opportunity to make prototypes. But "the designs are going to remain the kids' intellectual property," King said.
He considers the Science Building Group only an affiliate of SCAM Lab, which he would like to see expand to other schools.

News Release: Georgia Bureau of Investigation
Lakeland, GA – On Wednesday, February 26, the GBI's Commercial Gambling Unit, along with the Lanier County Sheriff's Office, the Lowndes County Sheriff's Office, the Berrien County Sheriff's Office, the Georgia Department of Revenue, and in cooperation with the Georgia Lottery Corporation executed nine search warrants in Lanier, Clinch, Berrien, and Lowndes County for violations of Georgia's commercial gambling and racketeering laws.
Search warrants were simultaneously served at four businesses, four residences, and one storage facility by more than forty agents, investigators, and deputy sheriffs. While searching the locations, agents collected evidence related to crimes of commercial gambling and seized monetary assets gained from the illegal use of the coin operated amusement machines.
Three of the four businesses are currently licensed to operate Coin Operated Amusement Machines. During the course of the investigation, agents discovered customers were receiving cash payouts for winning credits. In Georgia, credits may only be redeemed for lottery tickets and/or store merchandise.
As a result of the investigation, the Superior Court of the Alapaha Judicial Circuit in Lanier County suspended the Coin Operated Amusement Machine (COAM) Master License for Lotus Vending operated by Nilesh "Neal" Patel. This action called for the immediate removal of up to 180 machines from approximately 30 businesses across the state.
Search warrants were executed at the following business locations:

Yoga asanas, or postures, that slim the hips also open them and build a stronger core and legs. Many hip-opening poses focus on shaping the outer hips, but hips move in many directions due to their ball-and-socket joint configurations. To slim your hips, perform asanas that work the entire hip joint –the outer, inner, front and back – using a sequence of exercises to open and strengthen the muscles that encircle the hip joints. Yoga exercises strengthen the hips well, however, you'll need to implement a whole body workout plan to lose fat; spot reduction of problem areas is not effective. Warming up the hip muscles before performing the yoga sequence helps you bring your attention to the present moment and prevents muscle strains. Open your practice with sun salutations, downward-facing dog and warrior pose I and II.
Warming Up: Sun Salutations
Warming up begins in a standing position at the top of your mat. Exhale and bring your hands together, palms pressing together gently, just above the breastbone and hold for one to two seconds. Inhale, as you raise your arms above your head and gaze up at your hands. Feel the stretch in your shoulders and chest before slowly exhaling as you fold at the waist. Your fingertips should rest in front of your toes, or place your hands around your ankles.
Downward-Facing Dog
To move into downward-facing dog, step your right foot back and bend your left knee, so it is positioned directly above your left foot, and sweep your arms above your head, fingertips touching. Hold for a count of five to eight seconds. Bring your arms down to the front of the mat so your hands are shoulder-distance apart, palms pressed forward, flat against the floor. Jump or step your left leg back so your feet are together. Sink your heels into the mat, feel the stretch in your hamstrings and point your tailbone to the ceiling. Let your head and neck fall forward between your shoulder blades and relax the muscles, as you push back with your shoulders, keeping your arms straight.
Warrior Pose I and II
If you have tight hamstrings, ease your heels into the mat slowly. Don't rush through the downward-facing dog asana because it is the foundation of the next two poses, warrior I and II. Step your right foot forward into a lunge, slightly turn the left heel out as you press the edge of your left foot into the mat. Activate the thigh muscles by squeezing into the bone, raise your arms overhead and lift your chest. Hold five to eight seconds. Be sure your right knee stacks directly above the right foot for good conformation. Activate the left leg as you spread and lower your arms to shoulder-height for warrior II. Turn your torso so your shoulders are square with your hips, and reach out to stretch through your fingertips. Exhale, move into downward-facing dog, repeat warrior I and II for the left side, then step back into downward-facing dog before you begin the hip-slimming asanas.
Hip-Slimming Asanas: Garudasana and High Lunge
From a standing position at the top of your mat, swing your right arm under your left, so your left elbow rests on the inside of your right arm. Your palms should face each other, your right palm gently resting against the left wrist as much as possible. Lift your elbows toward the ceiling. This is the beginning of garudasana or eagle pose. Slowly bend your knees, lift your right knee up as you balance on the left foot, crossing your right leg over your left. Wrap your right foot behind the left calf. Inhale and exhale five times each before moving into the next pose. Unwrap the legs and gently step the right foot to the back of your mat, bending the left knee so the left thigh is parallel to the floor. This is the high lunge asana. Firmly press your back heel to the mat, but don't force it. Activate or draw your abdominal muscles in and up toward your chest. Hold for five to eight breaths. If bringing your right foot behind the left calf is too difficult at first, practice maintaining your balance by lifting and holding the right knee up for five breaths, instead of crossing the legs over.
Tips on Maximizing Asanas
Do not overstretch the muscles through this sequence or rest in the joint. Activate the muscles in each pose by gently squeezing or hugging in to the center of the muscle you are working and complete the asana with a slow, deliberate release.

Printable Sparkler Holders
Add a little fun and sparkle to your party! These free printable sparkler holders to create a spark of summer memories.
Hello TidyMom fans! It's Kellie once again from Nest of Posies & let me be the first to say Happy Summer to all of you!
Memorial Day weekend has always kicked off our Summer here in the South. It's time for picnics, summer salads, baseball, water balloons, pool parties & celebrating our Nation's Summer holidays. I am so excited that Summer has finally arrived!
We always try our best to do the holidays up right with all the trimming & festivities! I had the idea to make these Sparkler Holders last week, so that our family & friends could use them & we could all keep track of our sparklers easier.
Last year I remember trying to grab some out of the box & hand some out to the neighborhood kids, then use another hand to light them, and then grab another one for the next guest, etc. It was too time consuming & I wasn't able to enjoy all the sparklers! I'm sure many of you are shaking your head in agreement, especially if you have younger kids. You can't keep up!
This way, they're all there & all you have to do as the hostess is go around with a lighter to get them started! Obviously you can place as many as you'd like in the holders, but it's all organized for you & your guests.
To make these Sparkler Holders:
- Use the box files down below to download & print your sheets out.
- I recommend using white cardstock when printing.
- Use your paper cutter or scissors to cut & divide the holders.
- Then use a box cutter or razor blade to cut slits on each side of the word caption & add your sparklers!
From start to finish, you can do several of these holders in a matter of minutes!
I'm all about the quick & easy!
There's nothing like sparklers in my opinion! They truly can spark the memories of Summers from long ago & of families & friends. They really are magical if you ask me!
Wishing you all a lovely Summer holiday filled with the ones you love!

Cute ideas! I love this time of year. Thanks for sharing and giving me more fun ideas!
Hi Cheryl,
I must be doing something wrong. I cannot see the box file on my page to click on for downloading the Sparkler Holders. I tried pushing every picture and what I thought might be the link on the page but nothing happened. : ) Plus there is a big blank area on my page where I think the download link is suppose to be. I've never had a problem before with your pattern downloads. This is a first. I even checked the Christmas printable download at the bottom of your page to see if it worked and everything was fine with it.
Would you help me!
Thank you, Cheryll. You have such good ideas and I'd hate to miss out on this one.
I am also unable to download the sparkler holders…any help would be appreciated. Thanks
so super cute and easy! Perfect for this weekend!
What a great idea!! I agree totally with you about missing the sparklers because you are lighting them all. This is so fun and cute!! Thanks so much for the great idea!!

Running bash script with php under lower priority or limit CPU
I have a bash script which runs a set of php scripts. When it runs it takes an hour and pegs the CPU at 95-99%. This causes our lamp stack (mainly the apache process) problems and our website on the same server starts spitting out timeout or 500 errors. How can I either: Run the bash script and all associated tasks (php scripts which also call the PostgreSQL db) at a low priority so apache, […]Continue Reading »
Prioritise ssh logins (nice)
Is there a preferred way to set "nice" for sshd? I need priority given to sshd such that I can login and easily fix stuff when something has gone wrong (eg DoS, badly behaved processes, etc) Asked by s29 You can give your preferred user account or user group a nice value in /etc/security/limits.conf, at least if we are talking about Linux.

Is EBS naturally CPU-hungry?
We have an m1.medium EC2 instance with a small (15G) EBS drive, running both Rails 3 and a PostgreSQL server. We've noticed CPU spikes at odd times, and finally realized that even simple, sustained EBS access seems to pin the CPU. For instance, just grepping about 3G of logs resulted in 100% CPU usage – which means both cores, which should be impossible for grep! Deleting a bunch of log files also used about 25% […]Continue Reading »
How to know what is consuming the CPU on my Ubuntu Lucid server running in Linode instace?

But I'm not being able to figure out what is eating up the CPU. So, is there any way out to figure out what program/component is consuming my server CPU? A visually-nicer alternative to top is htop, and it also has on-screen keys to sort by e.g. CPU use […]Continue Reading »
Ubuntu 11.04 server hanging due to landscape-sysinfo CPU overconsumption
I'm running something of a bare-bones server (based on Ubuntu 11.04) on an Amazon EC2 micro instance, whose purpose is simply to coordinate the activities of a few webservers. The machine ran well for a few weeks, but now is hanging frequently with its CPU redlined at 100%.

mysqld_safe at 100% CPU

Does WMI cause CPU Creep?
I have a few servers, running Server 2003 Std/Ent and SQL 2000/2005, that I've noticed will start showing higher CPU usages over time. Stopping the WMI service and restarting it will always bring it back down. It's not a huge creep, but after a month it will be around a 10% increase, so even in idle times, it will show 10% cpu usage. We don't use WMI heavily, just a couple of scripts checking service […]Continue Reading »
cause for high Interrupts and context switches
Hey guys, I have a quad core and I have spotted on munin (monitoring interrupts and context switches), that my interrupts and context switches spiked to 25k a second while the average was 250 for some time.

"System" process suddenly using CPU a lot
In win2k3sp2, I've never seen this before and have not installed anything recently, but seemingly out of nowhere, the System process (not the idle process) is taking a lot of CPU whenever anything else is. That is, sitting idle, it's at 0. If I go and start a program like Thunderbird, while loading, thunderbird.exe and System will be competing for CPU usage, sometimes with System getting more than 50% (it's a dual-core system).

For the first time in the 2014 NFL Draft, the Patriots added a player to their secondary.
With their last pick in the sixth round (206 overall), the Pats took Georgia Tech defensive back Jemea Thomas.
Thomas seems like your prototypical Patriots� pick. He has experience playing both cornerback and safety, so he gives the team versatility. He is also a special teams standout on the punt coverage unit. Thomas is considered a physical player and though undersized, at 5-foot-9, he will give the Pats some depth at safety and on coverage units.
He was a four-year starter at Georgia Tech and is said to have a high football IQ.

The fact that a guy who hasn't got a crowd pleasing style and no apparent fanbase has got to where he is (making $1m + a fight) is testament to how well Shaw has done with Tim IMO.

Before he came up with that excuse, he knew for months that the fight was targeted for July 23rd. Timmy was even saying the fight was going to happen on the 23rd. Weak excuse.
Also the financial rewards + exposure he would have gotten from this would have been a lot better, even if he signs a promotional contract with Top Rank.
"Well what happens if he were to lose to Khan"
Then why was he "willing" to fight in June? Everything Bradley has said in this is crap

Basic Math | Basic-2 Math | Prealgebra | Workbooks | Glossary | Standards | Site Map | Help
Numeric SymbolsLet's look at some different shapes and words used to describe numbers and values. There are dozens of ways that the world may describe the value of "one". The big idea to remember is that the value is always a "one". Whether it is un, uno, or I, it still stands for "one". The ideas in math are universal even though the names and shapes may change.
RomanThe Roman civilization was around about 2,000 years ago. They built a number system that was based on letters in their alphabet. Some values like I (one), II (two), and III (three) are easy. They also used letters that included V (five), X (ten), and L (fifty).
MayaThe Maya civilization from Central America developed a number system based on tens, but used circles and bars to represent their numbers. You should be able to see the pattern quickly.
ChineseThe Chinese language often uses symbols to represent longer words that we might write out. Each of those symbols can be used to represent a number.
EnglishWe wanted to add a bit about English because you will need to know how to write out numbers in many word problems. Knowing numbers will get you a long way in math, but you also need to know that the word "eight" is the same thing as the number "8". There will always be word problems on your tests. You need to be able to understand the written words that represent numbers.
Modern Math SymbolsThese are the big ten shapes used to represent numbers in the modern world. They were first developed in India about 1,500 years ago (especially the number zero). The first row introduces you to the numbers. We added a second row of many symbols you might see next to those numbers when you are first learning math.

Celebrating 100 years
NEW MADRID -- Years ago, growing up in New Madrid, Pat Weeks remembers attending the annual 4-H Fat Barrow Show. It was an all-day event, where 4-H members would display their pigs and everyone would watch as some lucky member and pig would become the grand prize champion.
Today, Week's son and grandsons are just as involved in 4-H as she was as a child. The Fat Barrow Show no longer exists, Weeks said, but the organization does. And according to Weeks, it's better than ever.
"It's (4-H) very educational and fun," Weeks said. "Children learn things that they wouldn't learn in other places, and they'll have the knowledge to use for the rest of their life."
This October marks the 100th anniversary of the national 4-H organization. The Missouri 4-H has planned a gala celebration for Oct. 10 at the Missouri Botanical Gardens in St. Louis to honor the counties that make up the Missouri club.
The 4-H program began in rural areas across the United States in the 1890s in an effort to work with boys and girls. In Southeast Missouri, these clubs were often organized around the rural schools, which were recognized as the hub of community involvement with emphasis being on the planting of corn, canning of foods, raising of farm animals and sewing.
The purpose of the clubs was to teach the latest scientific discoveries about agriculture and homemaking, said Charles Reaves, New Madrid County Outreach and Extension Office.
Weeks, who was a 4-H member for eight years as a child, and now serves on the New Madrid County 4-H Council, assures that this is the same basis on which the 4-H club stands today. She remembers learning how to sew, garden and can foods in her 4-H meetings. These classes, along with many other new ones, like computer and babysitting classes, still exist.
Weeks's 19-year-old son, Ryan, is a 4-H leader and will leave in August to attend the University of Findlay in Ohio to study to be a veterinary. In fact, Weeks insists its her son's background from 4-H that has provided him with extra experience and knowledge of animals.
"Ryan's worked at two veterinarian offices over the past three years, and he just loves it (working with animals)," Weeks said.
The Weeks are currently raising pygmy baby goats, which when they were newborn, wore diapers and had to be fed by a bottle, Weeks said. They also have chickens, dogs and will soon get miniature horses.
Weeks has to grandsons who are 4-H members. One grandson, Cody, 13, likes the agricultural part of the club. She said he's just always loved farming and currently works as a farmhand, driving a tractor on occasion.
To get ready for the state event in October, many 4-H clubs in Missouri are planning events within their county to celebrate the Centennial. The New Madrid County club held an all-day event Saturday with displays spanning over 36 years in honor of last week's Extension Office Week at the University of Missouri Outreach and Extension in New Madrid. Aside from New Madrid, Parma and Risco are also included in New Madrid County's 4-H club.
Celebration is all ready taking place at the national level, too. Past 4-H member and Garfield creator, Jim Davis, has made a special comic strip featuring Garfield and 4-H that will be e-auctioned at ebay.com. Davis donated 55 copies of the strip to each state to be donated for the auction during the week of June 2-8.
Today Missouri 4-H is a part of life for over 207,000 young people through 4-H community clubs, school enrichment programs and special interest projects. With the support of 18,000 adult and youth volunteers, 4-H is touching the lives and supporting strong, educational programs, Reaves said.
Weeks agreed with Reaves. "There's pretty much something for everybody," Weeks said. "We try to reach out to all of the kids."
Those who would like to become a 4-H leader or establish a club in New Madrid County, should contact Delia Gurnow or Charles Reaves at the New Madrid County Extension office at (573) 748-5531.
