CAPE GIRARDEAU - A Tennessee woman will serve almost four years in prison for robbing the First National Bank of Miner.
Phyllis Ann Hester, 48, was sentenced to 46 months in federal custody on one felony count of bank robbery. She was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Rodney W. Sippel.
On Nov. 20, 2003, at approximately 3:35 p.m. Hester entered the Montgomery Bank in Miner wearing sunglasses, hat, flannel shirt and gloves. She handed a note to a bank teller instructing the teller to keep her hands where they could be seen. Also the note stated Hester had a gun in her shirt and if "you want to go home tonight, then do as you are told!!"
The note directed the teller to fill up a bag and have the two tellers on either side do the same. It added: "Don't push any buttons! I know where you all live."
The teller did as directed and placed $17,000 in the bag. Hester then fled the bank but minutes later her car was observed by the Miner Police officer and she was placed under arrest.
Officers recovered the stolen money, a .177 caliber BB pistol from under the driver's seat and the handwritten note.
U.S. States Attorney James G. Martin praised the Miner Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation for their work on the case.
Two Pemiscot County men were sentenced to prison on felony drug charges in federal court Wednesday.
James C. Baker III, 30, and Michael Woods, 19, of Caruthersville were sentenced on one felony count of conspiracy to manufacture methamphetamine. Baker was sentenced to 100 months in prison and Woods was sentenced to 28 months in prison. Upon release from prison, Baker will be placed on supervised release for two year while Woods will have three years supervised release.
On Feb. 28, law enforcement officers responded to Baker's residence on State Highway 164 after receiving complaints of a chemical odor. When officers arrived at the scene they detected an odor associated with the manufacture of methamphetamine and saw Baker run into the residence and leave the door open.
The officers called for Baker to stop and when he didn't, they followed him inside and discovered Baker behind a door. Also the officers found a substance containing methamphetamine base on the floor and around a nearby toilet. Woods then tried to flee the residence by jumping out the window.
After securing the residence and receiving a warrant, the officers found numerous items related to the manufacture of methamphetamine.
Both men admitted that on occasions between October 2003 and Feb. 28, they engaged in the manufacture of methamphetamine at Baker's residence. Woods received methamphetamine from Baker for gathering ingredients, acting as a lookout and providing other assistance.
The Drug Enforcement Administration, Bootheel Drug Task Force and the Pemiscot County Sheriff's Department were involved in the investigation.

My treatment philosophy
Every therapist's views on health and disease determine their approach to healing. Here are my views, and what I strive for when I treat my clients.
Health is more than just being free of pain or physical discomfort. It means well-being on every level: physical, emotional, mental, social and spiritual.
Health is never static. It is a constant search for equilibrium which continues as long as we're alive. That includes bouncing back from infections, healing quickly and with minimal or no complications from injuries, and the ability to adapt to changing life circumstances. These changes could be everyday stuff, like change of temperature, weather and seasons, or deeper changes that occur as we age, change of career or place of living, the birth of a child, death of a loved one or the beginning or end of a relationship.
Disease is a signal
Any dis-ease or symptom is a signal that tries to tell us that something is not going right. Put more technically, it points to an energetic imbalance. Once this imbalance is corrected and the need for the signal diminishes, the symptom naturally subsides or gets easier to live with. Acupuncture is a very sensible and effective way of correcting these imbalances and addressing symptoms.
Medicina curat, natura sanat
This Latin saying means: Medicine cures, but only nature heals. This applies to all treatment methods, from the most modern to the most ancient ones. A good therapist will support and facilitate healing processes and educate clients about their constitution and the nature of their disease, so they don't unknowingly continue to harm themselves.
"Rooting the Spirit"
One of the oldest and even today most relevant acupuncture manuals, the Ling Shu (aptly named "Spiritual Pivot") – states in a very central position: "For every needling, the method above all is not to miss the Rooting of the Spirit."
I try to live up to that standard.
What this means for you as a patient is probably best expressed by many current and past patients, who report a few weeks into their acupuncture treatment: "I feel a lot more like myself, like I used to be before XYZ happened." That is what is meant by Rooting of the Spirit. It means putting the best part of you back in the driver's seat of your life, so that your life is run less by other people's expectations or your conditioning ('autopilot'), and more by your ability to adapt to your environment while staying true to your original nature – who you really are deep inside.
Every acupuncture point can affect the body, mind and Spirit at the same time. When used in this fashion, acupuncture boosts the patient's innate healing mechanisms and creates a sense of peaceful calm and focus. That puts you in the best position to live a meaningful and fulfilling life, and is said to be the highest form of medicine.
(Just for the record, acupuncture that aims at preventing disease is said to belong to the second class of medicine, and symptom control – treatment that is aimed only at restoring function once the patient has fallen ill – is considered to be lowest class of medicine. Achieving this without drugs is still pretty cool, but why would I want settle for that if I can really help my patients make a positive change in their lives at the same time?!)
"Root and branches"
The root and branches principle is an important strategy of good medicine.
Picture a tree: If a tree's leaves turn yellow, painting over the leaves or cutting off the branches won't solve the problem of why the leaves turned yellow in the first place. The treatment that helps the tree to shake off its disease must be directed at the root, because that's where all its power and "juice" come from. A good gardener will know whether the tree needs more or less water, more or less sunlight, and which nutrients are missing. When the root of the tree gets proper nourishment and the tree itself more favourable conditions, its leaves turn lush green again, and its health is restored. Bugs will stop bugging the tree, because they have to work too hard on this one that they'll prefer to attack weaker plants.
Moreover, any tree that wants to grow tall needs a strong root, or it will be uprooted by the wind. I feel people are a lot like trees: They, too, need a strong root to grow "tall".
For your acupuncture treatment, this means: In each treatment, first your overall energy level is increased by an acupuncture "root treatment". This alone already relieves many symptoms. After that, any remaining symptoms will be addressed with a "branch treatment".

Digital Cinema Arts is cutting edge communication. It is technology. It is pixels, bits, CCDs, algorithms, lasers, and liquid crystal displays. But that's just one part of the picture.
At its core, Digital Cinema Arts is imagination. It is vision and creativity. It is collaboration and synergy. It is drama, suspense, beauty, and meaning. Although we surround ourselves with the tools of our trade, and while they are an integral part of what we do, Digital Cinema Arts at Lindenwood is fundamentally about the art of storytelling. The technology is important, but in the end it is merely a means to transmit the medium. The LCDs and software of today are no more constant than the vacuum tubes and typewriters that were part of our lives not long ago. The ability to craft a compelling story, on the other hand, is timeless, enduring, and one of the most valuable skills for any professional communicator.
The Digital Cinema Arts degree at Lindenwood is designed to give graduates broad and useful knowledge and experience. In the core classes, students learn principles that are the keys to everything from creating an entertaining movie to producing an effective informational video. Each student tends to forge a unique career path, and the opportunities that exist now might not be the opportunities that exist after graduation. But whatever the opportunities may be, the abilities to meet challenges, engage audiences, provoke thought, and elicit emotions will always be at the top of the list of qualifications.
The success of Digital Cinema Arts students is built on three strong foundational pieces:
- The first cornerstone is the degree program. Graduates can expect their major to provide them with a solid grounding in the moving image, followed by the chance to explore different parts of the field and specialize in a number of areas such as writing, producing, directing, and editing. Students will finish with a capstone film, produced with the best available professional cinematic tools and designed to showcase their creative abilities in the best possible light.
- The second cornerstone is the School of Communications. Digital Cinema Arts students benefit enormously from working with students at LUTV, 89.1 radio, and The Legacy newspaper. Being a communicator in the 21st Century means understanding and using all of the various media effectively. Regardless of their major, all students in Lindenwood's School of Communications have access to the hands-on training and practice that takes place in our facilities.
- The third cornerstone is Lindenwood's strong liberal arts curriculum. Colleges did not offer film degrees until the 1960s. Orson Welles never went to film school; Alfred Hitchcock did not hold a BA in cinema; Akira Kurosawa never experienced formal training in filmmaking. Although today's college students are fortunate to be able to take advantage of cinema degrees and focus their studies on filmmaking, the most important weapons in a filmmaker's arsenal are things like the appreciation of great literature and philosophy; the understanding of scientific method; the ability to think critically and analytically; and the ability to communicate effectively and lead one's peers. These things should be the primary goal of all college students, and these things are also the core educational mission of Lindenwood University.

How to Fix: Slow Computer
We have all experienced computer frustration. I'm sure you can remember the last time you felt real anger and frustration towards your PC because it's always...so... painfully...slow.
As a certified Microsoft engineer who has built and repaired computer systems for 20 years, I have seen (and fixed) the very worst cases of computer slow-down...
And I can tell you - having a slow computer isn't much fun for anyone, is it?
The truth is that computers become slow and bogged down in almost no time at all. Old, redundant and corrupt files build up quickly causing your P.C. to feel sluggish and slow causing crashes, system errors and serious computer slow-down just at times when you really need your computer the most.
Why is my computer running slow?
When your computer comes new from the factory it is setup to give you the very best performance. Everything has been fine tuned so that it runs fast straight out of the box...
However, over time you add new programs or delete old ones, install games or download files from the internet and when you do this, those optimal factory settings get overwritten and you can guess what happens...
Your computer starts to become slow, sluggish and bogged down.
...and you start to notice that it takes a little longer to load into windows, programs open a little slower and switching from program to program just isn't as quick as before.
But that's not the worst of it.
Another cause of a slow computer is when there are too many programs running on your computer at the same time. I'm not talking about the programs you can see running in the taskbar at the bottom of your screen but the many other programs running all at once in the background on your computer that you don't see.
These programs have built up over time and they remain there hiding in the background stealing your computer's processing power, memory and other resources.
And when this happens your computer becomes very slow and unresponsive, sometimes coming to a complete stop because all of your computer's resources are used up and there is no computing power left to do the things you want to use your computer for.
How Do I Speed Up My Slow Computer?
All of this is happening because you haven't maintained your computer regularly...
But that's not really your fault... you see, if you are like most computer users then...

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW)- Everyone wants to belong, but the search for protection and care can sometimes land teens in the wrong group. Gang activity is on the rise, and one man is making it his mission to help kids find another way.
Almost half of gang members are under 18, and one gang specialist says the younger you educate kids on what gang life really is the better chance they have of avoiding it.
"The gang mentality in our streets do not sleep," said Devon Harris.
That's why Devon Harris talks to kids to keep them out of gang activity, and the younger the better.
Even kids as young as six because he says gang mentality starts as young as 10.
"You see a ten year old that might be imitating that or mocking what they think is a norm but sooner or later someone is going to put a gun in their hand," said Harris.
Antonio Brooks just graduated from Josey High School. He avoided the gang life, but many of his classmates didn't.
"I see a lot. I don't say a lot, but I see a lot," said Antonio Brooks.
Brooks says his school gets a bad wrap, and he thinks if people came to speak there it could change students' lives.
"Someone from outside of the household could brainwash them and convince them, so I feel like it's just a love thing. They're looking for someone that can take care of or someone that can be there for them," said Brooks.
Gang activity is something plaguing our area. Back in June, 13 teens and young adults were indicted on gang related charges in Burke County. Harris says in the past year gangs have grown
starting in one city and spreading to another, but Harris says it has to stop.
"If we can educate, educate, educate we can eradicate the gang mentality," said Harris.
Housing inmates is expensive. In Georgia, it cost 91,000 dollars to house one person in YDC for a year. Right now, Richmond County's YDC has 38 inmates. That adds up to over 3 million dollars a year, and harris says most of those teens are serving a 2 to 5 year sentence.
"So the reality if it's not put in check and someone doesn't educate we're going to see more of that happen," said Harris.

SAN DIEGO, Calif. - There are not a lot of dealers who, in addition to their regular line of motorcycles, sell and service vintage motorcycles. Many dealerships even refuse to work on bikes from their own OEM supplier that are older than 10 years.
One dealer bucking that philosophy is Mark McCaffery of Rocket Motorcycles in San Diego. Rocket's been in business since 1980 when McCaffery (left) established it as a parts and service business. In 1984 he partnered with a long-time Vincent, Velocette and BSA dealership, Motorcycle Equipment, and continued as a parts and service outlet until 1994 when he became one of the new Triumph's first dealerships. In 2005 he added Husaberg, and in 2010 Royal Enfield to the list of products he sells and services.
Rocket is located just north of downtown San Diego, and while not visible from the freeway, it's a short ride away from Interstate 5, so it's a pretty convenient location.
The moment you step into the store's 3,300 sq. ft. showroom you can tell that the bread-and-butter line is Triumph. A representative model of every current Triumph is on display, along with merchandising of Triumph outerwear and accessories. Against the far left wall is the Royal Enfield area, identified with the company's large historic checkerboard POS. Squeezed in between is Husaberg.
Along the front wall are a couple of early '60s Triumphs and a Ducati. McCaffery explains that several customers simply leave their bikes there for display. He services them once a year to make sure everything is working properly and that they're oil-tight and run.

Scattered showers, thunderstorms will be "hit or miss" around Dallas-Fort Worth today
A few areas may see some scattered showers and thunderstorms this afternoon, according to the National Weather Service, but it's mostly "hit or miss," said meteorologist Ted Ryan.
"If you're in one of the lucky areas to get some rain, you'll be pretty happy about it," Ryan said. "It doesn't look like we'll be seeing any severe weather today."
There's a 30 percent chance of scattered thunderstorms today, mostly after 1 p.m. High temperatures are expected to be in the mid-80s, which is about normal for this time of year, Ryan said. According to the National Weather Service, though there won't be widespread severe weather, some strong storms in the area could produce quarter-sized hail and winds of up to 40 or 50 mph.
Chances for thunderstorms, about 20 percent, continue Saturday, but the long weekend is expected to be mostly dry and warm. Highs on Sunday and Memorial Day will be about 88 degrees with lows in the low-70s.

A (Not Quite) Magical Game
November 24, 2010|Pursuits
The first meeting of Elmhurst College's newest student organization had just begun, and already from a back corner of the Blume Board Room in the Frick Center came a question. "Are we going to wear capes?" someone wanted to know.
You don't ordinarily hear a lot of discussion of cape-wearing in the Frick Center, but then there is nothing very ordinary about the Elmhurst College Quidditch Society. Quidditch is, of course, Harry Potter's favorite game, and the ECQS must be the only club on campus devoted to translating a fictional pastime into an actual one. It won't be easy. Harry Potter's game is played above the rooftops by teams of wizards on flying brooms. The members of the ECQS, because they lack Potter-like magical powers, will have to play a more earthbound version that has lately become popular on college campuses: Players race around a field with broomsticks between their legs, scoring points by whipping volleyballs through elevated hoops.
The prospect of playing quidditch on the mall—and of turning Elmhurst, even for a few shining moments, into a quasi-Hogwarts—was enough to inspire an impressive turnout for the club's first meeting. Thirty-five new quidditch players signed up. "What Harry Potter fan hasn't dreamed of playing quidditch?" said first-year Christopher Puenner, when I asked him about the game's appeal. "I mean, not to be corny, but this is like a dream come true."
The society is largely the work of junior nursing major Jessie Cardella. Like most of the members of her club—for that matter, like seemingly most of her generation—Cardella grew up with Harry Potter. She started reading J.K. Rowling's novels with her family when she was in third grade. Harry and his friends have been fixtures in her life ever since. She had heard talk of a quidditch club coming to Elmhurst before, but when nothing materialized, she decided to take action. She presented her plans to the Student Government Association earlier this month. "Once I explained that I wasn't planning on actually flying, they thought it was a good idea," she said. Her society was granted provisional recognition. (Other startups this semester: a baton-twirling group and a free-thought society.)
"This college is really accepting. You're not going to hear someone say, 'Oh, that's stupid.'" said first-year Christian Marty at the club's first meeting. "It's more like, 'Go for it.'"
Cardella spread word about the club with fliers and table tents in the Frick Center. To drive attendance at the first meeting, she promised homemade cauldron cakes ("bewitchingly delicious") and a screening of the sixth Harry Potter movie. The turnout surprised even her. "I've never started anything before," she said, confessing to a little nervousness about running her first meeting. "I wasn't expecting this much interest."
Cardella also registered her society with the International Quidditch Association, the sport's governing body. The IQA recently staged the fourth annual Quidditch World Cup in New York City, which was won by a team from Middlebury College. (Our accompanying photo shows action from a recent collegiate championship match.) It was at Middlebury in 2005 that students first played a version of quidditch modified for the limitations of the non-magical. Since then, clubs have formed at 400 colleges and hundreds more high schools, according to the IQA. The sport even comes with corporate sponsorships now. (Check out Alivan's, maker of the official quidditch brooms of the IQA. The company's web site notes that the brooms don't really fly: "Please do not attempt to use them for that purpose.")
Cardella plans to organize a few scrimmage games on campus in the coming weeks to help players learn the game. For a sport that originated in a kids' book, quidditch is said to get pretty rough. "It's like field hockey and rugby with a little dodgeball thrown in," said Sam Bartlett, a first-year who played the game at Hinsdale Central High School. "It's just good nerdy fun, but it still takes a little coordination."
But first some logistical problems remain to be solved. The society needs a home field. It needs funds. It needs to find three dozen quidditch brooms.
If all goes well, by spring semester, Cardella may be organizing a full schedule of intramural games.
Capes, she said, will be optional.

See the First Pages of Tony Hale's Children's Book
When "Veep" star Tony Hale first arrived in Los Angeles twenty years ago, the Emmy-Award winning actor had one goal in mind: To land a sitcom. "I put so much expectation on that big thing in my life of getting that sitcom that nothing could match that," he tells Speakeasy. That moment came when he got "Arrested Development," where he played neurotic Bluth son Buster for three seasons before Fox cancelled it in 2006. But during that experience, he kept thinking about what was coming next instead of living in the moment. "I found myself so focused on that next adventure, that I was missing the adventure I was on."
Hale has turned that concept into his first children's book, titled "Archibald's Next Big Thing." It follows a bald chicken who embarks on fantastic adventures, yet is always looking for what's next instead of living in the moment.
One could say this feeling is just an occupational hazard. After all, once an acting gig is done, you need more work. "You get trained to always be looking for that next thing, even when you're on a job," he says. "And everybody's always asking 'What's next for you?'"
Hale says this mentality has been with him his whole life – from childhood, through college and during the last 10 years as he's slowly become an in-demand actor. And he tried to be more present when Netflix started shooting the "Arrested" fourth season in 2012. "To be able to go back [to "Arrested Development"] after years of learning this lesson … it was so fantastic to step back into Buster's shoes and really enjoy it," he says. "It's the discipline of waking myself up to where I am."
"Archibald's Next Big Thing" is out August 15. See the first pages here.

Finding a natural solution
by Stephanie Nelson
Mac, computer, Apple, environment, recycling program
According to those catchy computer commercials, there are only two types of people: Mac people and PC people. I am a Mac person.
Photo Courtesy Apple
I received my laptop, a PowerBook G4, in May 2004 as a high school graduation gift. My Mac has never crashed or lost any documents, and the battery life isn't too bad. I used it throughout college and now that it has reached its 5-year mark, I think it might be time for a new Mac.
When buying a new computer people often give their old machines to computer-less friends or donate it local schools or libraries. I've researched the school and libraries in my area to see if they want my computer; however, they are deterred because it is too old or because it is a Mac. Depressed by the outcome, I found an alternative option to tossing my computer.
When you buy a new computer from the Apple store, you are eligible to participate in the Apple Recycling Program. The program has spread since 1994 to 95 percent of countries where Apple products are sold. The recycling program is so successful that it has redirected computers, monitors, iPods and most recently, iPhones, from landfills—83 million pounds of e-waste to be exact.
I like Macs for a couple of reasons. I use my computer for graphic design work and digital photo work, which is the first reason why Macs are perfect for my needs. Secondly, I like Apple's environmental philosophy. Apple has banned lead, cadmium and short-chain chlorinated paraffins among many other substances in all of their products. In addition to eliminating many toxins, Apple has redesigned its products to be lighter and more compact to reduce the amount of material needed to build each product.
Do you have a Mac or a PC? What do you think about Apple's environmental stand? What have you done with your old computer?

Alejandra Guzman
Alejandra GuzmanAlejandra Guzman is one of Mexico's most lively, bold, talented and controversial rock singers. She is the daughter of the multitalented actress Silvia Pinal and early Spanish rock icon Enrique Guzman. She made her first TV appearance when she was just two months old. She spent her childhood preparing to be a well-known performer in her own right, singing, dancing and traveling with her mom's theatrical troupe. Following her mother's wishes, she didn't pursue a performing career fully until she finished school. After she graduated, the 17 year-old Guzman appeared in a production of Mame with her mother. From that day, she knew she wanted to be a singer. She has had an extremely passionate and dedicated fanbase throughout Latin America in the late 1980s and 1990s.
After teaming up with producer Miguel Blasco, Guzman recorded her debut album Bye Mama, which was number one in Mexico within days of its release. Alejandra won five different awards for Best New Artist and Bye Mama reached gold status. She was all Mexico could talk about and all they could hear on the radio. She wasted no time getting back to the studio and in 1989, released her sophomore project Dame tu Amor, which showed she was no one-hit wonder. To wit, she was recognized by the music industry for her rapid success and raked in a Best Singer of the Year award from ERES magazine.
Artist Biography - Alejandra GuzmanShe released albums almost yearly after her debut and enjoyed a large, enthusiastic fanbase throughout Latin America. Though Guzman encountered some personal problems in the mid- and late '90s, including a stay in rehab and a divorce, she brought her career full circle in 1998 by appearing onstage with her mother once more, this time in a production of Gypsy, and released her twelfth album Algo Natural in 1999. She has recorded 10 albums, and so far her biggest success has been her third album Eternamente Bella, which has sold over one million copies within a year of the release. She's also known as "La Reina del Rock", or the queen or Spanish rock. In 2002 she won a Latin Grammy for best female rock vocal performance with her SOY album.

"For Levi!" the children shouted, referring to their classmate, Levi Stephen Collom, who died of natural causes March 18 at the age of 3.
"And what was Levi's favorite color?" Williams asked the children.
"Orange!" they replied.
Then students took turns shoveling dirt to fill the hole where they had just planted a Yoshino cherry tree in memory of their buddy, Levi. Williams noted the tree will bloom white flowers in the spring and orange foliage in the fall.
The children also released balloons with Spiderman featured on them as Levi loved superheroes, especially Batman and Spiderman.
"It was really hard trying to explain to little ones why Levi wasn't with us anymore," Williams said. "They were thinking he's going to get super powers and come back."
Williams said she and Center staff, including her assistant teacher, Kelsie Martin, wanted to do something to remember Levi.
"We wanted a place where we could go to remember all the good things about Levi and to show how much we miss him," Williams said.

#3 Miami Holds Off Florida St., 74-68
Published: Thursday, February 14, 2013 at 4:42 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, February 14, 2013 at 4:42 a.m.
TALLAHASSEE | Shane Larkin scored 13 of his 22 points in the final 7 1-2 minutes to help third-ranked Miami stave off Florida State 74-68 on Wednesday night for its 12th straight victory.
Reggie Johnson added 15 points for Miami (20-3, 11-0 ACC), which became the first team to start the league season 11-0 in a dozen years.
North Carolina was the last team to start its ACC schedule at 11-0 a dozen years ago. The Tar Heels, however, faded down the stretch of the 2000-01 season and finished with a 13-3 league mark while archrival Duke led by Shane Battier went on to win the national championship.
Two years earlier, the Blue Devils were the lone team in ACC history to go 16-0 in league play, but lost to UConn in the national championship game.
The ACC has gone to 18 conference games now because of expansion.
Durand Scott had 13 points and Julian Gamble 10 for the Hurricanes, who will try to keep their ACC slate perfect Sunday when they visit Clemson.
A 3-point play by Scott gave Miami a 51-39 lead with 13:05 left, but Florida State countered with a 12-0 run keyed by a pair of Terry Whisnant 3's to tie the score on Okaro White's basket. They never could get the lead.
The Hurricanes built their lead back to 68-56, largely behind Larkin.
White led the Seminoles (13-11, 5-6) with 15 points before fouling out with 2:04 left. Freshman Devon Bookert added 12 points.
The 6-10, 290-pound Johnson, spurred a 25-5 run midway through the first half to help the Hurricanes wipe out an early 13-2 deficit on their way to a 38-30 halftime advantage.
Miami hasn't lost since Christmas Day. The 'Canes cracked the Top 25 just three weeks ago.

Thats normal with any drive that has quite a few bads.
Thats not a cause for optimism at all.

All that means is that it isnt completely dead.
In some ways thats a better prospect because a logic card swap can be all you need.

Nope, all that means is that that drive recalibrates quietly.

What matters is how reproducible the numbers are. If they vary every

the sealed chamber or there is a bad connection to the heads etc.

Thats what you should have tried first given that
you have no backup and the data is so important.
> Anyway, the main point of this post is to gain some a better idea of

Its either had a head crash and so there is loose material floating around
in the sealed chamber, or there is a flakey connection to the heads etc.
> From there I can see if paying ~£500 to recover a 40GB partition is likely to be successful.
> The drive is a Western Digital WD800JB 80GB ATA hard drive.
How repeatable are the read error locations ?

POMS is another one of this incredibly huge conferences where you need to be lucky – or plan it well – to actually meet people outside of the main track you are attending. The quality overall is impressive, pity that most presentations are based on abstracts only.
Different from many other conferences is all the career advice – there are lots of teaching-related tracks, actual career advice tracks, and probably best, there was even a one for women in operations management on how to manage life and career together. More of these, please! (Luckily, also INFORMS has a similar community already, though I am not too convinced of the name "WORMS".)
If there is anything to complain about, it's the scam with the mini-conferences that everyone thinks they paid for but are then asked to pay for even more. Apparently even the organisers of these were ripped off! It's not as if the conference hadn't been pricy already without that… and the catering is, well:

This was back a few days ago so you might have already seen it.
Josh Hamilton off to fast start in comeback
3/5/2007, 4:37 p.m. ET
The Associated Press
SARASOTA, Fla. (AP) Josh Hamilton's comeback is going very well.
The outfielder has been one of the Cincinnati Reds' best hitters in the first week of spring training games, showing his skills haven't deteriorated during years away from the game because of his cocaine addiction.
In Cincinnati's first four games, Hamilton went 8-for-15 with two doubles and an impressively long home run.
"It is good to see a lot of live pitching again," Hamilton said. "I am trying to concentrate on that rather than thinking about not playing for three years. I told the guys last year in New York that I felt good hitting."
Hamilton, 25, returned to baseball last summer, when major league baseball gave him permission to play for Hudson Valley in the New York-Penn League. It was a huge step for Hamilton, a former Devil Rays No. 1 draft pick suspended in 2004 for drug use.
The Reds took a chance on Hamilton in the Rule 5 draft, thinking he could help a lot in the outfield if he could keep his drug addiction under control. They were curious to see how much he had lost during his long time away from the game.
Apparently, not much.
Manager Jerry Narron has been playing Hamilton in the outfield during the early going to get an idea of his skill level. Hamilton has hit the ball hard and hit to the opposite field, an indication that he's sharp.
"We wanted to see if he could use the whole field," Narron said. "He is a real good fielder and he can run real well. I'm very, very, happy for him. I know how hard he's worked. I have to be careful with him and give him a day off."
Center fielder Ken Griffey Jr. still is getting back in shape after breaking his throwing hand in the offseason. Ryan Freel has a sore wrist, so Hamilton has gotten a chance to play in center, a place he likes.
"There is more action there," Hamilton said.
Narron likes what he has seen of Hamilton on defense.
"He only had one or two chances, but he made them easy," Narron said, following Sunday's game in Bradenton against the Pittsburgh Pirates. "He showed us what he can do.
"He has a tremendous arm. That's why they put him in the corner outfield with Tampa Bay. He had one of the best arms in that organization. He's a big strong man and is a tremendous athlete."
Narron isn't surprised that Hamilton is so sharp after years away from the game.
"The guys that came back from World War II like Ted Williams were able to play after being off that long," Narron said.

RIT maintains property insurance covering losses to RIT buildings and contents. RIT maintains a $500,000 deductible on this property policy, therefore, losses that occur with values totaling less than $500,000 for any one incident are considered self-insured by the Institute.
The affected department, college and/or division is expected to absorb the first $5,000 of any one loss, while central Institute reserves have been established to fund replacement costs that fall between the range of $5,000 and $500,000.
Process for Requesting Reimbursement for Replacement Equipment Costs
- A Public Safety incident report must be taken for each loss.
- Contact the Office of Risk Management at x5-6135 to confirm your intention for replacement of the damaged/stolen items.
- Replacement costs for these items must exceed $5,000 to qualify for supplemental funding from central reserves. It is the intent of this process to reimburse a department for replacement items that are of "like kind", therefore, reimbursement will not be processed for equipment upgrades unless:
- the replacement costs are equal or less than the original item, or
- the original item cannot be replaced because it is no longer available and upgrading is the only option.
- After replacement purchases have been made, provide the Risk Management Office with a cover memo referencing the incident and department's intent to request reimbursement. Include copies of invoices for the replacement items. Be sure to indicate the department account number you wish credited. This information may be directed to the Office of Risk Management, Eastman Bldg., Rm 4008.
- Please note, central funds will not be provided unless there is actual replacement of the damaged or stolen items.
Any questions about this process may be directed to the Office of Risk Management at (585) 475-6135.

Garden in the Sea
Good films are sensually, emotionally and intellectually immersive. They transport you to other places, and the big screen experience is central and essential to this thrill. Just as environmental sensitivity and ethics are often borne from direct contact with that small part of life outside "safe cities" and computer screens, there are films which awaken appreciation of the wonder of nature. Vancouverites love these films, and from that good things flow.
WWF-Canada is sponsoring this sixth edition of our Environmental Series, and shares with us a particular focus on biodiversity, the health of our oceans and freshwater systems, climate change and the sustainable coexistence of people and other species.

First 5K ever is: Lake Erie Poker Run 5K April 17, 2010
Sara, I am with you, I start first thing in the morning, I know it's only 4:10pm, here but I think I'll get started on my gym bag...curling iron, towel, things I'll need to shower at the gym before work.....I'll be on week 1 day 1.....on the jogging part, it's at your limit don't you think? I can just see myself careening off that darn thing, I have visions of Jillian from Biggest Loser screaming at me, and let me tell you that's not encouraging - LOLLLL
I'm gonna be honest here...when I first started my journey I didn't do it for weight loss...after gaining and losing hundreds (and I'm serious on this, I was a chronic dieter) of pounds over the years, I had, at 44, finally resolved myself to the fact that I was going to be a large size woman (I was 235 pounds). I was cool with that...I needed to stop hating myself every day. So large it was...and that was ok by me. Then my son needed my help and I did what mom's do, I helped him. He had terrible endurance which he needed big time for his karate test so we, together, started running slowly...we started with like 1/2 a mile and we just didn't stop...we did that for a week until we upped the distance. That went on for about 6 weeks (we started the first week of july and his test was in late august 2008). He passed the test thanks in part to his endurance increase and I signed up for my first 5K so that I would have a short term goal to keep going. By this time I was running 5 days a week probably about 2 miles a day....I'd increase my mileage every Sunday...by a telephone pole distance (I've always run loops in my neighborhood). By the time my 5K came up in the end of September 2008 I was totally hooked and running about 4 miles 5 times a week. Still not a whole lot of weight loss but I felt in control and did lose some weight. I kept running and ran another 5K before winter set in, there are no races in NJ in winter. I kep running through the winter sigining up for the first race I would in April. I found during this time, that I really liked pushing myself. I liked sweating and breathing heavy and feeling engaged in my body...I never followed a diet, I just ate healthy cause I ran better when I ate that way. I fueled my body to run. Healthy, low fat, high protein, and smart carbs...not a lot of junk (but if I felt like a treat I'd have it..if the calories I'd consume were worth wasting that morings run on, then I'd eat it..sometimes, yes, mostly no). By April 2009 I decided to run a half marathon....and then it was game on! I found a passion for long runs...I really really like to run long..I'm not very fast but that's ok...I run lots of miles and it amazes me that this former fat chick can run 10+ miles....it amazes me every time. I ran my first HM in October this year and promptly signed up for another....I use racing to motivate me to continue...I'm not very good at it but I like to have a focus to my runs...a goal to work towards. My first HM was just to finish, this one is to finish 30 minutes faster. I'm sharing this with you so you can see that you too can, with time, work and determination, accomplish your goal...its a lifestyle...not a diet. I finally feel like I've found that thing I've been looking for...the key to my health at my age...I'll never look back...I feel to damn good. I only hope that my words can inspire you to go outside your comfort zone...that area that got you to where you are now...its now working for you anymore....come to active, find a group that supports you...there are so many, post often, take comfort in knowing that there are so many that have been where you are and are here to help you get to where you want to be! I've found so many people on this site that are wonderfully supportive, full of advice and will answer all of the dumb newbie questions that we all have. Good luck!
i will start tomorrow too! either on my dirt roads or at the local track. it's suppossed to snow like crazy here, but needs to be started. and cyndi, your words are truly inspiring, thank you!

Hi there!
Congratulations on your decision to get started! I am confident you can do it if you really set your mind to it. I think all of you guys are amazing for starting this program at 200+ and this sheer determination will carry you through if you stick to a plan.
I think it's really great that you are taking this first step. However, I would insert a word of caution here. If you haven't had a checkup in a while, do so before you start trying to run more than a few minutes at a time. Make sure it is safe for you to do it. You can also try a different approach that will get you ready to start running, and that is walking/jogging for 30 days. Hal Higdon's approach is called the 30/30 plan and it's designed to get you to a point of fitness to start running without risking your health. You walk/jog for 30 minutes everyday for 30 days, and then you'll be ready to start training for a 5k. Here's the link: http://www.halhigdon.com/beginrunner/plan.htm
Whatever you choose to do, try to run outside if you can. Be sure that other runners will never look at you in a judgmental way and really, who cares what non-runners think?!? In my opinion, running outside is better because you don't know your speed. When training on the TM you have to make a decision about your pace in your first day of running, and if you pick anything too fast you will end up quitting. If you pick anything too low you'll feel like you're not "really running" and so on. When you're outside, you just do what your body tells you and you'll never start off at a pace that you can't sustain.
Good luck!

I'm in to start tomorrow too! And I think I am going to give it a go and run outside on a street nearby that doesn't get a whole lot of traffic. OR maybe I'll go to the neighborhood where my house is being built since those are the streets I'll be running on eventually. Either way, I'm in! Scared. But IN!
Hi Guys,
I'm going to start tomorrow too. However being in Australia tomorrow is Tuesday. I'm a plus size too and have been walking just under 2Ks each week day morning before work for 10 weeks. I feel fab but haven't walked the last week due to christmas and am feeling that old yucky ate too much feeling again.
Got out again yesterday and today and suddenly remembered a friend mentioning the couch to 5 k site and that once I'd got into walking I should try it. walking is great but I do know my friend seemed to loose heaps more and faster when she was running, especially off her backside! Plus I too have always watched enviously as those runners steak by. I just completed the Sussan 5 k funrun for breast cancer where you could walk or run and after completing it I decided next year I will run it. So I'm all set to begin tomorrow.
Wishing us all luck!
I have a question. For those of you who run outside, do you listen to music? How do you know when to run and when to walk????? I can't work out without motivational music.
Hi to everyone! I completely understand feeling self conscious about running - I am overweight, out of shape and started C25K on Dec 1. Started off running on the boardwalk (makes sense - start an exercise program outside in the winter when I'm both lazy and hate the cold lol). Would run at 9 at night - no one around. My first night, felt kinda stupid with the run-walk-run thing plus ready to collapse. I passed a guy (during a walk) walking his dog and he made the "hurry up" motion to me. Apparently he had seen me running and wondered why I was walking. I stopped, pulled out my iPod and said (laughing/gasping) - cut me some slack - I just started! He said - good for you! and every time he sees me now I get a double thumbs up.
I overcame my fear of the treadmill - with the snow we've had here I knew I had to find someplace to jog until it melts. And although I may never be the most graceful runner in the world - at least I'm running! And so are you!!!! So that puts us (and everyone else on this board) way ahead of about 95% of people:-)
Starting Week 4 tomorrow - so grateful a friend told me about the program - and bought some workout DVDs today for use in non-run days.
Good luck!!

Congratulations for getting out there! I'll second what many other people have said here about doing it for yourself and forget about what anyone else thinks. On Sept. 1, 2009, I was 350 pounds. Since then, I've run/walked FOUR - 5k races and am under 300 pounds. I also started fencing. I did have to have a custom jacket made for fencing, but my coach was encouraging and said, "None of us are getting any younger!" I have really taken that to heart, and am doing all the things I've always wanted to do.
In 2010, I've already got a few 5ks on my schedule as well as a half marathon in October. I'm also shopping for a sprint triathlon to tackle towards the end of the year!
The biggest thing that has helped me remain injury-free has been starting slow and specific. I do have a personal trainer 2-3x/week, too. The investment has been well worth it. As far as running goes, I started by jogging from 1 mailbox to the next, then walking. I'd run/jog another mailbox, then recover. I can now jog almost 1/2 mile without a walk break and I'm nearly 300 pounds. I look forward to the day when I can run a mile without stopping. That will be a day of huge celebration!!!
Don't worry about what people think. Just know that you are getting out there and doing something. Take it slow in the beginning to avoid shin splints and other pesky injuries! Best of luck!
This is a nice pod cast with good music a verbal ques when to run and walk.
I don't know where you live but I train with a group called the Run-away-club in San Antonio. I started as a walker and ran most of the half marathon last nov in San Antonio. I'm having surgery this morning so I haven't been training lately but John Purnell is the trainer and he would be an excelllent person to talk to about getting started with a group and changing into running mode. You can check out his website for more info at www.runawayclub.com He works with people of all talents. I weighed 300 pound at one time and started walking when I had gastric bypass surgery so my exercise journey started when I was heavier. I now weigh 130 however I have the problems of a once heavier person. I hope this info helps
Good Morning....I'm taking enough time to report that I did it!
It wasn't pretty, I deeply resented the folks that got on the treadmill right next to me and ran and talked and even laughed the whole time....LOLLLL until I figured out....they were just doing what they do....and I decided to just do me.
I also re-read the instructions before I left the house this morning, and that helped me to understand that there was no fast or too slow, there was just me getting started, and I figured I could do that.
Oh, by the way, the packing the gym bag, and all that other stuff, fell be the wayside when I actually got out of bed this morning.
I politely put on the coffee pot, put on my gym clothes, grabbed my driver's liscense and gym pass, and drove to the closest gym to me, got it done, threw in some leg thingeys....I forget now what it's called, grabbed my sweater and came back home, to shower and change.
Maybe later this week, or next week I'll have it together enough to go the gym closer to work and shower and change there....for now, it was enough I got my lazy patootie out of bed....
Oh, I know what to do - it's the doing of it.
Thanks y'all....I'll check back in later, now it's up to you guys.....LOLLLLL
Done in Houston.
I wanted to say earlier Congratulations. You did "Do It" I also started in the same place you did. I surgery isn't cosmetic and I still have many health issues. Having weighed 300 pounds, I understand. My max weight at one time was 375 pounds. I started at the gym also but sometimes just getting outside for 5 minutes out and 5 minutes back is the biggest challenge my physicians taught me. That was how I trained after my surgery.

Differences Between Excedrin and Excedrin Migraine
Excedrin vs Excedrin Migraine
A migraine is no ordinary headache. Ordinary headaches are just headaches that most people get from extraneous reading, dehydration or different tasks. However, migraines might have the same causes, but they differ mainly by their level of pain. Migraines are more crucial and cuts deeply to the head. Sadly, most people even experience a 'mixed headache' wherein both an ordinary headache and migraine are joined together.
Thus, Bayer is one of the most distinguished medicine providers that has created many migraine formulas. People buy from Bayer because they know how well these formulas are tested and created. One of the many questions that most people ask is, how do they treat their migraine? Should they use Excedrin or Excedrin migraine medicine? There is a varying difference among the two, and both differ from how they are marketed.
How did it all happen?
For Excedrin to actually market any product, they have to get approved by the FDA first. Hence, because of the level of pain attacks that both migraine and ordinary headaches differ, the FDA can only approve the labels of the medicine once it is changed. Therefore, Excedrin migraine is to treat migraines while the Excedrin is to treat ordinary headaches. It is of the concern of FDA that people would consume extra strength of dosage when they are not experiencing a migraine at all.
Therefore, patients need to take extra precautions on what they are dealing with when buying a medicine. It is always smart to consult a doctor first before the act of buying should be persisted.
Both are actually OTC, or over the counter, medicines, and Bayer Healthcare approved, but a consumer has to be certain of what he is dealing first rather than putting his health to possible dangers.
The reliability
Articles and feedbacks have shown that people who get migraines are relying on Excedrin to treat their migraines. Studies show that this brand is more effective for them than any other brands per se. Bayer is noted to have had been creating new formulas to actually imitate the results of Excedrin. Although, when people were asked, especially the people suffering from the migraines, they said that they would appreciate it if they would improve the Excedrin migraine rather than imitating its possible results and altering it to create a cheaper medicine.
Thus, this just goes to show that Excedrin is indeed a reliable medicine that most people would consider over any other brands. This might have been overlooked by the manufacturers but it is also a great thing that they are aiming for a medicine to be practically bought by the masses.
Do not forget that migraines or headaches have different causes, but one of the main of them is stress. Therefore, it is very important for you to keep on looking out for your stress-coping capability because migraines can cause different measures of pain. The healthcare professionals also suggest that people often check their time management to reduce the possibility of stress. It is also a great step to determine the type of lifestyle that one has, that triggers stress and thus, migraines and headaches.
Excedrin migraine is to treat migraines whilst the Excedrin is to treat ordinary headaches.
Migraineurs are relying on Excedrin to treat their migraines. Studies show that this brand is more effective for them than any other brands per se. Bayer is noted to have had been creating new formulas to actually imitate the results of Excedrin. Although, when people were asked, especially the migraineurs, they said that they would rather appreciate it if they improve the Excedrin migraine rather than imitating its possible results and altering it to create a cheaper medicine.

Look at the formula. Each is the same as the other.
I love the articles on this website. I've been unintentionally looking thru the archives for hours now because its pretty interesting seeing the differences between these different things. However, this article seemed like it just kind of abruptly stopped and almost wasn't finished. I get that the difference is one treats migraines and the other treats regular headaches, but what about the main difference between the two, being the ingredients. Nothing was mentioned about the ingredients. The first article I've seen here that has not thoroughly explained the differences. Exedrin is the ONLY medicine that will work on migraines AND headaches so I was instantly drawn into this article like a moth to a light.
