I have to build a solution to authenticate users on both Windows and Unix
workstations. I have read two tutorials about this subject:
There is a point I do not understand and I hope you could help me. When you
want to add a UNIX user in AD, you have to create a keytab file on the
server (with this command: Ktpass -princ hostname/username.xyz.com@MYREALM
-mapuser username -pass password -out username.keytab), then go to the
workstation and merge this file with the workstation's keytab file. Here is
my question: I have 10 workstations, I want to add a new user who could uses
any of these workstations, Have I to create 10 keytab files and then merge
them on the 10 workstations ? Actually I am working with more than 30 UNIX
users/workstations, so I guess you can understand my problem :) Do I miss
something ? Is there any easier solutions ?
Thank you !
Regards, Benoit.

This is a mix of what I remember reading some time back, backed up by a quick search on wikipedia.M is for McLaren of course, from the name of Kiwi team founder Bruce McLaren, an F1 driver in the 60s who drove for Cooper before founding his own team. All of the team's first cars were number Mxx: the M7, M14 and M19 were the most prominent of the early models, then the M23 won McLaren's first two championships in 1974 (Emerson Fittipaldi) and 1976 (James Hunt).The P4 stands for 'Project 4', designating McLaren cars since 1981, due to the arrival of a new design team and the takeover by Ron Dennis.Originally, MP4 stood for 'Marlboro Project 4', after the title sponsor. In 1997, that title sponsor changed, and since, the M stands for McLaren.

HAMPTON — A Hampton man allegedly fled from police in Hampton Falls and was pursued into Hampton, where he crashed his car and was subsequently arrested shortly after midnight Saturday morning, according to State Police Capt. Gary Wood.
Jonathan Torres, 26, of Hampton, was charged with driving while intoxicated, reckless operation, disobeying an officer, resisting arrest and operating without a valid license after he crashed his car into a curb near his Acorn Road residence and popped his tire, ending a short pursuit, Wood said.
The pursuit began on Route 1 in Hampton Falls by the traffic lights at the intersection with Route 88, Wood said.
Torres was arraigned and released on bail on Saturday.
The arrest was one of seven that were made on Friday night during a DWI saturation patrol conducted by state police and the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office, according to a press release issued by New Hampshire State Police Troop A on Saturday.

A taut web of wire connects hand–carved wooden forms that project from the wall. Calder made this work in 1943, the year the Museum hosted a major retrospective of his work. At the time, he was the youngest artist to receive this honor.
"There wasn't much metal around during the war years, so I tried my hand at wood carving," Calder said. "I have always liked wood carving, but these were now completely abstract shapes." With its spare, evocative forms, this work underscores the persistent influence Surrealism wielded on his art. It also strikes a note of ambiguity and tension characteristic of much of Surrealist art: does the wire link these disparate elements, or is it a web that traps them? The title suggests a starry vision of night, but the wood elements possess a slightly figurative presence and appear locked irrevocably into place. In 1948 the Brazilian architect Henrique Mindlin wrote, "Calder's work shows more than just the youthful inventive American spirit. Their 'humor,' their instability, their accidental qualities also betray the anxieties of our era. And the subtle elusive lyricism of his forms bespeaks our disillusionment with the obvious and explicit."

Definition of Generic Visual Perception Processor GVPP
The 'generic visual perception processor (GVPP)' has been developed after 10 long years of scientific effort . Generic Visual Perception Processor (GVPP) can automatically detect objects and track their movement in real-time . The GVPP, which crunches 20 billion instructions per second (BIPS), models the human perceptual process at the hardware level by mimicking the separate temporal and spatial functions of the eye-to-brain system. The processor sees its environment as a stream of histograms regarding the location and velocity of objects.
GVPP has been demonstrated as capable of learning-in-place to solve a variety of pattern recognition problems. It boasts automatic normalization for varying object size, orientation and lighting conditions, and can function in daylight or darkness.
This electronic "eye" on a chip can now handle most tasks that a normal human eye can. That includes driving safely, selecting ripe fruits, reading and recognizing things. Sadly, though modeled on the visual perception capabilities of the human brain, the chip is not really a medical marvel, poised to cure the blind
Introduction of GVPP
The GVPP tracks an "object," defined as a certain set of hue, luminance and saturation values in a specific shape, from frame to frame in a video stream by anticipating where it's leading and trailing edges make "differences" with the background. That means it can track an object through varying light sources or changes in size, as when an object gets closer to the viewer or moves farther away.
The GVPP'S major performance strength over current-day vision systems is its adaptation to varying light conditions. Today's vision systems dictate uniform shadow less illumination ,and even next generation prototype systems, designed to work under "normal" lighting conditions, can be used only dawn to dusk. The GVPP on the other hand, adapt to real time changes in lighting without recalibration, day or light.
For many decades the field of computing has been trapped by the limitations of the traditional processors. Many futuristic technologies have been bound by limitations of these processors .These limitations stemmed from the basic architecture of these processors. Traditional processors work by slicing each and every complex program into simple tasks that a processor could execute. This requires an existence of an algorithm for solution of the particular problem. But there are many situations where there is an inexistence of an algorithm or inability of a human to understand the algorithm.
Even in these extreme cases GVPP performs well. It can solve a problem with its neural learning function. Neural networks are extremely fault tolerant. By their design even if a group of neurons get, the neural network only suffers a smooth degradation of the performance. It won't abruptly fail to work. This is a crucial difference, from traditional processors as they fail to work even if a few components are damaged. GVPP recognizes stores , matches and process patterns. Even if pattern is not recognizable to a human programmer in input the neural network, it will dig it out from the input. Thus GVPP becomes an efficient tool for applications like the pattern matching and recognition
Basically the chip is made of neural network modeled resembling the structure of human brain. The basic element here is a neuron. There are large number of input lines and an output line to a neuron. Each neuron is capable of implementing a simple function. It takes the weighted sum of its inputs and produces an output that is fed into the next layer. The weights assigned to each input are a variable quantity.
A large number of such neurons interconnected form a neural network. Every input that is given to the neural network gets transmitted over entire network via direct connections called synaptic connections and feed back paths. Thus the signal ripples in the neural network, every time changing the weighted values associated with each input of every neuron. These changes in the ripples will naturally direct the weights to modify into those values that will become stable .That is, those values does not change. At this point the information about the signal is stored as the weighted values of inputs in the neural network.

Alumni reception in Tokyo largest ever in Japan
On April 3, 2014, 90 T-birds (with graduating years spanning from 1969-2013) came together for a special alumni reception hosted by the Tokyo alumni chapter.
"About 100 people joined the event," said Chapter Leader Yohei Matsumura '13, who is also a member of the inaugural Alumni Council of Thunderbird (ACT). "This was the biggest Thunderbird event ever in Japan."
All Japan-based Thunderbird Global Council (TGC) members attended the event, showing their support for the chapter and sharing more about the TGC's role with attendees. The TGC members in attendance included Mr. Takaaki Tanaka '80, Mr. Hitoshi Hamada '91, Ms. Mikako Inamasu '91 and Mr. Michael William Short '75.
The event also included several heartfelt speeches about the Thunderbird mystique, given by Mr. Genichi Tamatsuka '98, Mr. Yoshiaki Ito '98 and Mr. Atsushi Funakawa '91. Mr. Matsumura also spoke with the crowd about the ACT's mission and role.
Not only was the reception an enjoyable opportunity for T-birds in Japan to network and reconnect, the event also generated $1,000 in cash donations and has increased the activity on the Tokyo Chapter's Facebook page considerably.
"The alumni had a great time and we all reimagined the Thunderbird mystique together," noted Mr. Matsumura.
A special thanks to Mr. Matsumura, Mr. Kevin Rohrer '82, Ms. Ginger Griggs '89, Mr. Tanaka, Mr. Hamada and Ms. Inamasu for organizing this successful event.

** FILE ** In this April 29, 2008, file photo, Democratic presidential hopeful, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., leaves after speaking at news conference in Winston-Salem, N.C., about the incendiary comments of his former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright. "I am outraged by the comments that were made and saddened by the spectacle that we saw yesterday," Obama said of Wright's speech before the National Press Club. At left, Obama's communications director Robert Gibbs. (AP Photo/Jae C. Hong, File)
Washington (AP) White House press secretary Robert Gibbs says President Barack Obama is going to continue to work with Republicans to craft a stimulus package supported on both sides of the aisle.
Gibbs said Obama understands "it's going to take longer than a few days to change the ways Washington works."
Appearing Thursday on NBC's "Today" show, Gibbs said he worries about "the people who work for Boeing or Home Depot or Starbucks, who are going to be losing their jobs."
When asked whether House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had failed the President by crafting a bill that Republicans refused to back, Gibbs replied: "if people stop looking through the partisan lens and through the economic lens, they'll see it was put together with Democrats and Republicans and economists who supported us."

Homes in New Bedford are highly affordable. Average price varies quite a bit, depending on size and location, but compared to other cities, one bedroom apartments in New Bedford are downright cheap. Even four bedroom rentals won't break the bank, though utilities are not typically included. Do keep that in mind as you shop--Massachusetts winters aren't exactly mild.
If you're an animal enthusiast, you'll be happy to hear that there are plenty of pet-friendly apartments in New Bedford. The many public parks and beaches offer space for your four-legged friends to roam, as well.
New Bedford has begun to develop a bit of bad rap because of local news coverage of gang activity in the city. But the reality is that most cities have problem areas, and New Bedford is no exception. So unless you plan on joining a gang as a way of making new friends, the impact they are likely to have on your life is very small, if noticeable at all. That isn't to say there's no crime in New Bedford, just that its reputation is a bit undeserved (hey, now that the Sox have won the world series a few times, the local news needs to find some way to make things entertaining!).
New Bedford's unemployment rate is currently higher than the state average. The city historically relied upon fishing and manufacturing for employment, and while the fishing fleet is still the highest grossing in the country, economic times have moved many of the manufacturing jobs overseas. There are not a lot of employment opportunities in New Bedford itself, though the city is within an easy commute to both Providence, RI and Boston. Though slowly improving, the employment factor is something to keep in mind when scoping out where in the city you wish to live.
All in all, New Bedford is on the upswing. Crime has been decreasing and businesses are relocating to the downtown New Bedford area. So while jobs are not as available as they are in other cities, their availability is steadily improving, as is the city's outlook as a whole.
West End/Country Street Historic District: This area might be one of the nicest in the city. At one point in history, the wealthy whaling captains made their homes here, meaning that you'll find homes that are practically palatial. Due to the current housing market, these sprawling homes can be had at very affordable prices. Many of them have been converted into duplexes and condos, making them even more affordable. West End is within walking distance of downtown and has very low crime rates. $$
Buttonwood: Well, darn it we'll just say it, this neighborhood is "cute as a button." It surrounds Buttonwood Park and is a picturesque, quiet place to live in. The park is large enough for your pup to run himself ragged, and downtown is only a few minutes away. $$
Far North End: This area has a very suburban feel, with a low crime rate and decent schools. How awesome is that? Far North End is known throughout New Bedford for its beauty. $$
Rodney French: If you're looking for apartments for rent in New Bedford that have incredible views and easy access to the beaches, you should look in the Rodney French area. This neighborhood sits right on the waterfront. The price ranges here are a little higher, but it's worth it to have spectacular views and the beach practically at your front step. $$$
Downtown: If what you really want is a cape-town experience, consider living downtown. There are apartments and condos everywhere, with more being built all the time. The downtown area is charming, safe and packed full of activities, restaurants, and novelty shops. $$
New Bedford has an incredibly rich history and culture. It has one of the largest concentrations of Portuguese-American communities in the nation, and the festivals and activities provide much of the cultural experiences that the people of New Bedford love. The city has an art museum, dozens of art galleries, and specialty stores and historical museums, as well. The parks are beautifully maintained and open to the public. Don't forget to check out the Buttonwood Zoo, located in Buttonwood Park, either. The zoo was designed by the most famous landscape architect in the world, the very same Frederick Law Olmstead who designed New York's Central Park.
New Bedford is the perfect place to live if you love the ocean and don't want to have to drive for hours just to get to the beach. The food in New Bedford is some of the best in the country, thanks to the easy access to fresh – we're talking plucked-straight-from-the-Atlantic fresh -- seafood. If what you want is history, seaside charm, and a small-town feel, New Bedford is the place for you.

Guy Behind the Guy: The West Wing
|Mike Sundheim
|Index | Archive
I spoke to Mr. Thiessen for a while after the speech. I had had an opportunity to quickly run through the West Wing with our players on the way to their media access that day, and told Marc how neat it was to even catch a quick glance into the Oval Office. Marc was standing with his son after the ceremony, a young hockey player whose entire youth team was there to see the presentation and get a glimpse of the Stanley Cup. He told me to keep his contact information, and let him know when I was in town with a little extra time, so that he could give me a better tour of the West Wing.
We tried a time or two over the last few years, but the visit finally did happen last night. It was truly an interesting time to visit the White House – the day after an election determined the next resident at the world's most famous address. Obviously it is a time of mixed emotions for Marc and his co-workers, who will be moving on to the next stage of their careers soon. It's an extremely busy time as well (I guess when isn't… it IS The White House), but Marc took the time to give me the tour he had promised, and it was a tremendous experience.
Marc was able to provide me with two additional slots for the tour, which was great because I was able to bring my sister, Jill, and my brother-in-law, T.J., for the once-in-a-lifetime tour.
We saw the Situation Room, the Roosevelt Room, the Rose Garden, the Cabinet Room and, of course, the Oval Office. We saw the Brady Press Briefing Room, which was recently remodeled, and of some significance to me since it is the room that most closely relates to my own job. (I couldn't believe how small it is… The NHL would most certainly deem it "too small" for a press conference during the Stanley Cup Finals). Even Marc's own West Wing office had some significance – it was previously the office of Hillary Clinton when she was The First Lady.
It was fascinating to hear the little tidbits of history with each room, and each hallway. It was also interesting to learn how the West Wing changes from administration to administration, including its transitions from Bill Clinton to George W. Bush and how it will change again when Barack Obama moves in on Jan. 20.
I am certainly glad that I took advantage of Marc's offer. I sometimes give people tours of the arena, and it is fun to see the awe in their eyes when they see things that I take for granted because I see them daily. Last night, the situation was completely reversed, and I was the one in awe of the history that was laid out in front of my own eyes.

- Location: Foxwoods Resort, Mashantucket, Connecticut, USA
- Referee: Steve Smoger
- Judge: Glenn Feldman
- Aired On: Fox Sports
- Floyd Mayweather Jr. 14-0 (12 KOs) vs. Miguel Melo 8-1 (6 KOs)
- Melo, who took the fight on two weeks notice, entered having not fought in 10 months following a decision loss to Richard Kiley 8-1-3 (3 KOs).
- It was the final fight of Melo's professional career.
- Oscar De La Hoya was a guest analyst during the television broadcast.
Bout Summary
A knockdown was ruled in Round 2 as Mayweather pressed down on the back of Melo's head and landed two rights to the body. He was up at the count of two, but was surprised at the knockdown ruling. Melo came forward and threw a huge left hook that snapped back the head of Mayweather. By the end of the round, both men were bleeding from the nose. A right uppercut followed by a left hook put Melo down at 2:22 of Round 3. He got to his feet at the count of three, but informed Steve Smoger he did not want to continue.

AbleCare Homes is a South West, Bristol based family run residential care home company set up in 1983, which was when we established our first care home, Belvedere Lodge. Since then the company has expanded around the South West and Bristol and now offers the choice of six professionally run care homes.
Our care homes have all achieved 'good' star ratings with the Care Quality Commission. This is thanks to the dedication and hard work of those involved at all levels from Managers to Care Assistants and Domestic and Ancillary Staff. It is our main aim to provide individually tailored care to suit the needs of each resident and non resident alike. We are able to offer the following; residential care, short breaks, day care and lunch clubs in all of our care homes.
The resident group accommodation has evolved with the changing needs of the elderly population. We provide a dedicated number of care home places for elderly people with Alzheimer's disease and Dementia at our Belvedere Lodge and Crossley House care homes and we can also offer care for mild dementia at all of our other care homes. Whilst we normally provide care to people aged 65 years and over, we can also provide care packages to people who are younger than this by arrangement.
Our chefs prepare a wide variety of meals all within a home cooked theme. Vegetarian meals and special dietary requirements such as diabetics are catered for within our menu's. Meals can be taken in the dining rooms or the resident's own personal accommodation. Arrangements are flexible and any resident who has guests, then this person or persons is more than welcome to join them at meal time (by prior arrangement).
Our emphasis is on family involvement and the company is owned by Father and Daughter team, John Willcox and Sam Hawker.
Sam is responsible for overseeing all of the care homes and she is backed up by a team of strong Care Home Managers in each individual location.

Re: Difference between politics in PNG versus Kenya
Posted Jan 5, 2008 6:58 AM
Whats the difference between Africans and New Guineans? In fact very little difference. When European explorers came to this part of the world they saw people that resemble those in Africa and therefore call the place (island) NEW GUINEA because it reminds them of the people they saw in West Africa.
Now both Africans and New Guineans (PNG) want to have a democratic modern state just like the West. But these black people are still primitive in their thinking. They still think territorial not as nation-state but more minute and primordial kin groupings that make more sense to them. The leaders are often corrupt, greedy, with super egos and very litte in the brains. They often talk about governance and policies that in reality dont make any sense to them. I think Europeans should continue to rule these black people for another thousand years or these people will wipe themselves out through tribal wars and AIDS. The doomsday is not farway.

Hello, I'm a newbie to this site and to knitting. Just wanted to say hi and how wonderful this site for all use beginners out there! I have learned so much just from some of the videos....so to the site creator thanks so much!
I make polymer clay beads and to finish my beads I use a wood finish called " flecto varathane" it's made by rustolem and can be found at most home improvement stores I think I got mine at Lowes. Anyway I was thinking that you could use this wood finish on your handmade needles to make them smooth. It dries really fast and has no stickiness or smell.
I personally love the bamboo needles and find that I can knit longer because of the weight and smoothness of them. I tried others and some are just way too heavy.
I am having trouble finding some good ones online I make a lot of scarves and like to use the double ended short needles.
This is a great site so glad I found it :D

Add some festive words to your Thanksgiving decorations this year. This autumn blessings frame, made with your handy eCraft electronic die cutting machine by Craftwell, is a beautiful way to draw attention to the sole purpose of the fall harvest.
- Black Picture Frame
- Matte Photo Paper printed with Digital Paper
- Square 1
- eCraft (used a pressure of 2 1/2, blade cap on, tabs off to get the kiss cut on the Square 1)
- Adirondack Alcohol Inks in Butterscotch, Sunset Orange, Latte, Cranberry and Caramel, Gold Mixative and Alcohol Blending Solution on a felt pad with the Ink Blending Tool
- Two pine cones and 1 small pumpkin
- Select a digital paper that is a text background.
- Print it out and add the saying on top of it using Century Gothic font.
- Use Square 1 and locate the leaves on the eCraft Fundamentals 1 SD card. Cut out a few of each. We did a "kiss cut" on the Square 1 like you would do for vinyl.
- Add a bunch of alcohol inks in various autumn colors onto a felt pad. Using your ink blending tool, dab the colors onto the leaves. Then go back and add some Gold Mixative and a little Alcohol Blending Solution to come up with the gorgeous colored leaves. It only takes a few minutes for them to dry.
- If you want to make sure that the leaves don't get lost on the page, place the leaf down on your non-stick craft mat and gently ink the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.
- Remove it from the craft mat and place it on the digital paper.
- Place the paper into a black picture frame and attach leaves, pine cones, and other decorations to the outside of the frame.

Scaring the living sh*t out of people is the bottom line of horror movie marketing and Thinkmodo is getting pretty darn good at terrifying public PR stunts!
Earlier this year, the viral video agency freaked out beauty salon customers with an elaborate hidden camera prank to promote the release of The Last Exorcism and now it's at it again; this time it's unsuspecting coffee shop patrons getting the prankvertising treatment.
Imagine the scene… you're settled down with your paper, peacefully enjoying a nice latte, when an argument breaks out across the room. A man has spilt a drink over a girl's laptop and she's NOT very happy about it. The kerfuffle escalates into a shouting match and all of a sudden the girl flings her arms, appearing to send him flying across the room and smashing into the wall. While shocked customers look on in terror, desperately fumbling for their phones in an effort to record the action, chaos unfolds. The girl starts shrieking, books fly off the wall and tables and chairs shoot across the floor. It's probably safe to say your relaxing morning has been ruined!
Nope, it's not an insane IRL demonstration of telekinetic superpowers, just another clever marketing stunt to promote the upcoming remake of Stephen King's legendary 70's horror flick, Carrie. The video has already clocked up over 15 million views in just two days!
Also trending this week, is the awesome Samsung Smart Watch. Yep that's right folks: those nifty little wrist gadgets that once seemed simply the stuff of futuristic sci-fi films are finally here!
Samsung unveiled its Galaxy Gear Watch last month, but instead of hyping the practical features of the new technology, the brand has opted to market the product by appealing to the nostalgia generated by decades of fictional representations of similar devices in films and cartoons.
The two new ads titled, "A Long Time Coming" and "Evolution", invoke some pretty powerful childhood memories. Appealing to gadget fanatics and film fans alike by taking clips from old films such as Knight Rider and Inspector Gadget to suggest that the new device has actually made the fictional objects 'come to life'. It's a clever way of taking what's actually a fairly ugly watch and turning it into a coveted iconic symbol of fictional history, telling the kind of story that the internet loves to share.
Also worth a watch on the brand scene… Boston Dynamics has released a video demonstrating the awesome horse power, (ahem, I mean, 'cat' power), of the new cheetah robot running machine – it's pretty amazing, (even if it does appear to be missing its head); Blend Tech is keeping it topical by testing out the iPhone 5s and 5c in the latest installment of Will It Blend; and Paul Frank has gone for a rather novel approach to advertising its new underwear line by dangling a pair of semi naked, adrenaline junkies/ models, thousands of feet in the air between two frozen mountains – who said pants had to be boring!
The UGC Chart – top trending homemade and entertainment virals:
Over in the UGC listings this week, Bristol born street artist, Bansky, has posted a tongue-in-cheek video artwork showing what appears to be a group of Islamist rebels carrying out a rocket attack. Taking real war zone footage and splicing it with some clever Disney style animation, things take a fantastical turn when poor little Dumbo gets shot down from the sky, landing with a mighty crash at the fighters feet.
Elsewhere in the listings, its all about the rap battles – with ERB pitching Hitler against Darth Vader in the third season of historical verbal duals and Rhett and Link tacking the age old question; who is cooler, the Geek or the Nerd?!
And Miley mania continues… The pop star is STILL milking her VMA fame for all it's worth, parodying her own music video on Saturday Night Live by dressing up as a sexy Michele Bachmann and having a cheeky dig at the US government shutdown. Meanwhile, the haters are STILL hating, as the wrecking ball mashups continue to trickle in. This week YouTube comedian, Bart Baker, has published a biting critical parody of everything that's wrong with pop culture, naked wrecking ball swinging and sledgehammer licking!
Squeak of the Week: Ever wonder what a baby puffin is called? Well, it's a puffling. And a tiny little hedgehog…. a hoglet! The interweb it packed full of cute stuff, so it's time we learned how to talk about it properly. Here you go…

There isn't a direct route to Wrightsville which is one of the biggest problems that we have! There are a ton of students without cars and even if the students do have cars, college students don't have enough money to pay $10 at the beach every weekend. Another problem is the fact that the busses do not take you directly to walmart or other shopping areas.
The campus shuttles are very efficient and free for students, they work great, I just haven't had need for them really yet.
I just highly suggest getting a car. The shuttle is nice and sometimes convenient but other times they don't even completely stop even when they see students outside.
i have a personal car
There are a lot of buses but they don't always come at the right time

Bike, car, wheels, foot, shuttle—a variety of transportation methods can be seen at UNCW and in the Wilmington, N.C. community. UNCW is an extremely flat, pedestrian-friendly campus, so having a bike proves to be a quick and efficient way of getting to class, nearby locations close to campus, and even to the beach (though that won't be quite as quick, but is still possible). A lot of Seahawk students also use longboards and skateboards. Sometimes you may even observe the unique choice of a tandem bicycle, roller skates, scooters, or motorized skateboards. Of course, walking is also a popular mode of transportation around campus.
Freshmen are allowed to have cars on campus, but it's not necessary to have one. A lot of students don't bring their cars to UNCW until they obtain an off-campus job or internship and actually need a car. The Seahawk Shuttle runs on a fixed schedule around campus, and is a great option, especially if it's raining. Wave transit shuttles also run around Wilmington, and are also a viable option for students in nearby off-campus apartments. Shuttles are free with student ID! There is a park and ride system in place for those who live farther off campus. Schedules for the shuttles are all listed online.
The shuttle operates along fixed routes, with round trips running every 15 to 20 minutes.

Are you tired of apricots yet? Not me. Yes, here's yet another apricot dessert. My third in less than a month. But as I mentioned the other day, strawberries are still flavorless, and altho' my rhubarb is getting bigger each day, it will probably be mid-May before there's a freshly-baked rhubarb tart in this house. In the meantime, I am using canned apricots as quickly as I can haul them home from the grocery. My only disappoint with this Apricot Upside-down Cake was that I didn't have a third can of apricots. I could have easily found room for a few more apricot halves on top!
adapted from Gourmet magazine
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 to 3 cans apricot halves in syrup, drained and patted dry with paper towels
• 1 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
• 2 large eggs at room temperature for 30 minutes
• 3/4 cup well-shaken buttermilk
1. Preheat oven to 375˚F.
2. Topping: Heat butter in a 10-inch well-seasoned cast-iron or heavy, nonstick, oven-proof skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides. Reduce heat to low and sprinkle brown sugar evenly over butter, then cook, without stirring, for about 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and arrange the apricot halves, cut sides down, close together on top of the brown sugar.
3. Cake: Sift together flour, baking powder and soda, and salt into a bowl.
4. Beat together butter, sugar and extracts in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until pale and fluffy. Beat in eggs 1 at a time, then beat until mixture is creamy and doubled in volume, about 2 to 3 minutes.
5. Reduce speed to low and add flour mixture in 3 batches alternately with buttermilk, beginning and ending with flour mixture, and beat just until combined.
6. Gently spoon batter over apricots and spread evenly. Bake cake in middle of oven until golden brown and a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.
7. After removing from oven, immediately invert a large plate over skillet and, keeping plate and skillet firmly pressed together, invert cake onto plate. Carefully lift skillet off of cake and, if necessary, replace any fruit that is stuck to the bottom of the skillet. Cool to warm or room temp.
8. Serve with sweetened whipped cream or vanilla bean ice cream.

|Stationary and non-stationary deformations in three-flat tests
|July 07, 2008
|Calibration procedures for optical reference flats of phase-shifting interferometers (three-flat tests) are critically important if flatness measurements with low uncertainty are desired. In these tests, all combinations of three flats with unknown flatness error are measured and the flatness errors of all three flats are determined [1]. In a three-flat test procedure, at least one of the flats must be rotated [1]. The forces of the flat mount on the optical flats lead to deformations of the flat surfaces. The deformations may be stationary when the flat is rotated, or, when an asymmetry is present, they may change when the flat is rotated. For the widely used reference flats with diameters up to 150 mm, the deformations are often negligible. For larger and heavier flats the flatness error due to the deformation can much exceed the uncertainty of the calibration, even when the flats are mounted on their edge, and it must be accounted for accurately. We illustrate this with measurements and finite element calculations for optical flats made from fused silica with a diameter of 300 mm. The form error of the flats is 30 nm peak-valley. The flats are bonded with a silicone adhesive into an aluminium hoop which can rotate in three V-bearings. Two of the bearings below the flat bear the combined weight of hoop and flat (150 N), the third bearing at the top of the flat constrains the flat but exerts no radial force. The mirror-symmetric component of the stationary flatness error, which has a magnitude of 5 nm peak-valley, can be measured as part of the calibration procedure [1]. This flatness error is a considerable fraction of the total flatness error. Non-stationary deformations are primarily the result of the slight wedge shape of the flat which causes a change in the mass distribution as the flat is rotated. They can not be determined in the three-flat test, but can have a significant effect on the calibration uncertainty. We have calculated the non-stationary deformation and resulting flatness error as a function of rotation angle using a three-dimensional finite-element (FE) model of the flat and its mechanical support structure. The smallness of the deformation compared to the size of the flat required a very fine mesh, especially for the non-linear silicone bonds, and a careful choice of boundary conditions to obtain FE model which agrees with measurements. The deformations of the flat were calculated for the rotation angles that are used in the calibration procedure. For the 300 mm flat in our mechanical mount the non-stationary deformations result in an uncertainty of 0.5 nm in the flat calibration results near the edges of the flats.

These Irish people will be a real benefit to whichever country they move to. That many would love to go to the United States is beyond question, but they cannot. They are unwelcome. They won't worry about it too much, though, because if America doesn't want them someone else does.
The loss is America's more than it's these quality Irish people. Barring such people when they're in such demand elsewhere is so breathtakingly stupid it hurts.
Yes, of course, the American economy is down now and not really looking for new workers, but now is is the time to correct this so that when US companies are again looking for skilled workers the Irish are available to them.
Now is the time for America to prepare to compete with Australia and Canada. Irish emigrants have so much to offer America, but America has to want them, has to open the door to them. If not, they'll simply pass on by to the next-door neighbors who have the door opened and cake baked ready to welcome them.

The Daily Start-Up: Texting In India? GupShup!
Top stories in today's VentureWire:
SMS GupShup just scored $10 million at nearly a $200 million valuation to position itself for the next wave of Internet users rolling online. The group-messaging service, whose name means "chit-chat" in Hindi, has become the largest social network in India, providing users who don't have smartphones or Internet access the ability to use basic cellphones to communicate in groups. Tenaya Capital led the Series E round.
DoubleVerify Inc., an early player in the online ad verification space, has pulled in a $33 million Series C to fund an expected oncoming swell of business. CEO Oren Netzer said about 10% of all online ads are currently routed through some type of verification and compliance process and he expects that number to grow to 80% within three years. JMI Equity and Institutional Venture Partners led the round.
Also in today's VentureWire: Two venture investors backing publicly held Icagen Inc. are fighting that company's proposed merger with Pfizer Inc., saying the $56 million deal sells the business and its shareholders short…MapR Technologies Inc. has become the latest recipient of the rush to fund Hadoop-based start-ups, securing $20 million in Series B funding to sell a version of the popular data software that's aimed at large enterprises…and Liquid Robotics Inc., developer of an unmanned ocean vehicle, said James Gosling, who is best known as the developer of the Java programming language, has joined the company as chief software architect.

Elsewhere around the Web:
Is venture capitalist Vinod Khosla behind the closure of popular Martin's Beach in Half Moon Bay, Calif.? Although there are no direct ownership links, MercuryNews.com notes that two people handling the business affairs of beach owner Martin's Beach LLC have close ties to Khosla. The VC declined to comment. The co-founder of Sun Microsystems was a partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers before starting his own firm, Khosla Ventures.
High valuations of Internet start-ups depend on tremendous future expections and are inherently unstable, says Scott Maxwell of OpenView Venture Partners in a peHUB post. Although the bubble could last for months or years, it will be pricked one day by an event that changes those hopes, he says.

Ike on Path for Houston-Galveston Area; Keys Evacuation Cancelled
Hurricane Ike, now over central Cuba as a Category 2 storm, is on a projected path to strike the Texas coastline not far from the Houston-Galveston area this weekend, the National Hurricane Center reported Monday in its 11 a.m. EDT advisory.

The five-day forecast track, however, shows Ike has the potential to strike anywhere from the tip of Texas' southern border with Mexico to Alabama. Ike is expected to enter the Gulf of Mexico by late Tuesday, where it could strengthen. Officials cancelled the evacuation of the Florida Keys.

|Me & my little Nugget ~ May 2012
Having a baby is supposed to be this wonderfully magical time in your life when the world stands still and you get to bask in the glory that is a precious, itty-bitty human being... right? Well, sorry to break it to ya, but adding a new person to your life isn't all it's cracked up to be. Don't get me wrong, it's definitely one of the happiest times in your life. You can't imagine loving another person as much as you do and everything else in your life seems, well, insignificant at best.
BUT (and that's a big but), it's also one of the most stress-inducing times in your life, where a surge of hormones causes you to go bat-shit crazy, a change in routine causes you to feel a bit uneasy, and a black hole in your wallet causes you to wonder how you thought you could handle this new venture in the first place. If you've already experienced the joy of becoming a new parent, you know exactly what I'm talking about and if you're gearing up for this new journey, get ready for seemingly insignificant things to push your ass right off the deep end.
The good news is that you can easily avoid some (but certainly not all) of these conflict-inducing problems simply by learning about the common arguments that new parents face. Recognizing that these conflicts are completely normal can not only help you feel more sane when they surface, but just by knowing what to expect, you can begin to create plans for dealing with these issues for when the time to deal with them comes. Whether it's your first baby or your sixth, below are 4 common arguments that couples have when a new baby is thrown into the mix. And by the way, I'm calling them "wars" because, like a war, until you figure out a way to end them peacefully, these arguments could continue for a very long time.
The "Who Does More" War
(a.k.a. The Chore War)
|Our twins at 2 weeks of age ~ May 2009
When you have a baby, everything seems to triple. You have more laundry than you know what to do with, you're vacuuming and sweeping as much as possible to keep the floors clean for your itty-bitty, and you're changing diapers around the clock. If you're nursing, well, it seems like all you do is have something (a baby or a pump) attached to you and if you're formula-feeding, you're filling, mixing, heating, and washing bottles all freakin' day. It's exhausting. And one of you will usually get the short end of the stick.
The goal here is to figure out a way to make both of you feel like you're putting in your fair share of work; whatever that may be. Some couples are perfectly fine with the woman doing more of the child-raising than the man, while other couples want everything to be equal, and still other couples expect the man to put in more man-hours caring for baby. Having a discussion about divvying up baby-related chores is vital to maintaining your sanity.
Hus and I, for example, subscribe to the idea of equal parenting. We both want to put in an equal amount of time and energy when it comes to caring for our children. And we negotiate, barter, and compromise about all kinds of things to achieve that goal. But we still engage in the epic "who does more" battle on a regular basis. Don't be fooled; this war does not escape our discussions. And I think it's impossible to eliminate it completely. For us, we just try to voice our concerns when things feel a little unbalanced. Figuring out how to make each person happy is important. And keeping the lines of communication open about this issue can definitely help. Another thing you can do is try to avoid keeping score about who does more, because trust me, it will just piss you off.
The "Why Don't You Want to BLEEP Me Anymore" War
(a.k.a. The Sex War)
|Our youngest ~ June 2012
Acknowledging your partner's feelings about this and explaining that it's not him (it's your hormones) that's causing you to not be in the mood can help, but sometimes a good old fashioned make-out session is the only cure. Be aware of your partner's point of view and try to increase your physical touch with him as much as possible. Expressing your attraction to him is also something you're going to want to implement into your daily routine (as if you didn't have enough stuff to do!). And whatever you do, DO NOT act as if engaging in intimate activities with him is a chore. This can seriously damage his confidence and could cause the two of you to drift apart. Trust me when I say that you do not want that to happen. Just keep reminding yourself that this too will pass. Hopefully.
The "You're Not Doing That Right" War
(a.k.a. The Gatekeeping War)
|Our daughter with our youngest ~ May 2012
Try to avoid telling your partner how he should or should not care for his child. Bite your tongue. He may not have the same knowledge about newborns or children as you, but he's a grown-ass man who is perfectly capable of figuring it out. Make sure that he knows you support him and his efforts. Express your appreciation for everything that he does and compliment him. {Side note: I can't tell you how many times I congratulate Hus on his self-honed daddy skills. It not only makes him feel great, but he usually returns the compliments when he sees me do something well.} Studies have found that this will not only enable him to be more involved, but it will also decrease conflict in your relationship.
The "WTF are we Fighting About" War
(a.k.a. The War about Nothing)
|Hus asleep at the doctor's office with our twins ~ May 2009
The last war you will inevitably experience as new parents is the War about Nothing. After that little bundle of joy joins your family, you'll have arguments about all kinds of things that never seemed important before. And the sleep deprivation and change in routine will be the main sources of these fights.
For example, during the first year of his life, our son had reflux and was very colicky. His incessant crying and need to be carried everywhere was terribly challenging. The amount of attention that he demanded was difficult for Hus and I to deal with because we didn't always agree about how to best handle the situation (and we also had a second crying baby to soothe). Coupled with the sleep deprivation that we were both experiencing, Hus and I would get into arguments about all kinds of insignificant things related to our cranky son.
"I've been carrying him around all day; what the hell have you done?"
(i.e. The Chore War)
"You're not holding him right. If you would hold him like this he would stop screaming!"
(i.e. The Gatekeeping War)
"Stop getting annoyed by him! He's just a baby! And his stomach hurts! He can't help it!"
(i.e. The War about Nothing)
These phrases (and several dozen others) were said by Hus and myself many times each day. And they didn't help our marriage. We were angry at one another about things we couldn't control. It was ridiculous. The good news is that you eventually get out of this phase. The bad news is that some couples say or do things during this phase that negatively and sometimes permanently change their relationship. The best advice I have here is to try to not sweat the small stuff.
In the end, all of the arguing is worth it.

-- Robert Preidt
FRIDAY, Aug. 15, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Three common
respiratory diseases seem to be associated with an increased risk
of lung cancer, researchers report.
The investigators analyzed data from seven studies that included
more than 25,000 people and found that chronic bronchitis,
emphysema and pneumonia were linked with a greater risk of
developing lung cancer.
Having asthma or tuberculosis was not associated with a higher
lung cancer risk, according to the study published in the Aug. 15
issue of the
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care
People who had all three -- chronic bronchitis, emphysema and
pneumonia -- had a higher risk of lung cancer than those with
chronic bronchitis only. There was no increased risk of lung cancer
among those who had chronic bronchitis along with asthma or
tuberculosis, the study found.
In a journal news release, study author Ann Olsson said the
reason respiratory illnesses may affect lung cancer risk in
different ways could have to do with underlying disease
A better understanding of the links between respiratory ailments
and lung cancer may help inform doctors on how best to monitor and
help patients, said Olsson, of the International Agency for
Research in Cancer in Lyon, France.
Although the study found an association between certain
respiratory diseases and lung cancer risk, it did not prove a
cause-and-effect relationship.

lung cancer.

His response was illuminating. Firstly he claimed it was not on his radar as he was not aware of any desire for it. He also claimed that the people of Worksop & Retford did not want any "extra bureaucracy" that Town Councils, he implied, would bring.
As many of the roles of Town Councils are already done (not always very well) by the District, and would be transferred to the Town Councils is they were set up, the only extra bureaucracy involved would be having a Town Clerk & possibly an assistant to run the Council.
I have looked at the "extra bureaucracy" and also costs of Town Councils to other towns near us and the precept (extra Council Tax levied to fund the Local Council) seems to be around about £100 a year and there are 2 to 3 people employed by the Local Council above those doing work that is done already by the District Council employees. Harworth, for example, has a precept of £91.15, an annual budget of £271,000, a similar level precept for Worksop (based on a tax base of 12910) would give a Worksop Town Council a budget of over £1,150,000 which should be more than enough for its purpose. In addition, as some of the work be transferred to a Town Council there would be a reduction in costs to the District which should mean a cut in the basic Council Tax.
Cllr. Greaves did point out that there will be a review of Local Council structures in the near future, what is needed to secure a Worksop (and Retford) Town Council is a show of support for the idea from the people of Worksop, so now is the time to start contacting you Councillors to let them know you support the idea.

Clarke flew out for Australia's four-Test tour of India on Tuesday morning still battling the hamstring problem sustained in the one-day international win over West Indies last Friday night.
He was forced to sit out the final match of that series at the MCG on Sunday with the problem to his right hamstring which has plagued him since the Test matches with Sri Lanka in December. But, at Sydney airport, he said: "I'm feeling much better."
Australia will begin a two-day game in Chennai on Tuesday before a final three-day hit-out this weekend which will be crucial preparation for next week's Test opener.
Clarke is hopeful of playing some part in that final clash but will take advice from physio Alex Kountouris before deciding if it is worth the risk before what will be a gruelling series.
He added: "I've had four days now of recovery, rehab and a lot of physio so I'm certainly on the mend. I've got some time when I arrive in India to get myself 100 per cent fit as well. That's very positive for me.
"In my mind cricket-wise I feel like I need that game to spend some time in Indian conditions both batting and bowling, but also with my captaincy as well because India is such a different place to Australia. There's so much time I don't think there'll be any doubt I'll be fit for the first Test match."
Clarke, who has not missed a Test through injury since making his debut in India almost nine years ago, said the warm-up matches would be hugely important to how the team performs in the opening five-day encounter.
Asked about the possible make-up of the side for the first Test, the skipper said: "It's very open, hence we've sent (17) players in three different stages to get over there as soon as possible to prepare and get used to conditions.
"Runs and wickets will certainly play a big part in these practice games leading up to the first Test but for a lot of guys it's more about preparation and seeing conditions. The more preparation we can get leading into that first Test match in Indian conditions the better. India is such a different place to Australia."

Euro Millions & Euro Jackpot Winners
The EuroMillions and Euro Jackpot grand prizes remain untouched after Friday's draw
The unclaimed EuroMillions prize of £1,000,000 in Doncaster has finally been claimed. The ticket holder had won a Millionaire Raffle prize on the 27th of March and after many weeks of the prize laying unclaimed many believed it would be lost. A spokesperson for Camelot in the UK has said "It would have been awful if the ticket-holder had missed out on this life-changing amount of money". The winner has chosen to keep their anonymity.
On Friday both of the big Pan-European lotteries the Euro Jackpot and the Euro Millions failed to create a jackpot winner. This means that both prizes will rollover to the next draw. In the case of the Euromillions there will be a €32,000,000 jackpot prize up for grabs on Tuesday. On Friday you'll be able to take the chance at winning €16,000,000 with the Euro Jackpot. While the jackpot prizes remain without a winner there were still plenty of people made rich from Friday's draws.
1 lucky Euro Jackpot player matched 5 main numbers and 1 Euro Number to win an enormous second prize of €640,892. Second prize winners of Friday's Euromillions results were 6 lucky ticket holders who will each receive €275,784.59. In third place in the Euro Millions for matching just 5 main numbers are twelve winners of €45,964.10 each, and in the Euro Jackpot a much bigger third place prize of €166,632 will be awarded to just 1 ticket holder.
