As the topic states, this board is undergoing a major overhaul. Currently the admins have changed from Venomblade and Elawen to Venomblade and myself, I have also placed all of the posts from the old UCG into an archive located at the bottom of the forum index (It is read only, nobody can post in there at all).
If anybody would like a topic moved out of the archive then feel free to ask, or feel free to start a topic over if you don't want the archived thread moved out.
P.S. I haven't fully decided where i'm going to go with UCG so suggestions are welcome

A directory is a location for storing files on your computer. Directories are found in a hierarchical file system, such as DOS, OS/2, Unix, etc. When referring to a directory, a user commonly indicates the name of the directory.
In the picture to the right is an example of the tree command output that shows all the local and subdirectories (e.g. the "big" directory in the cdn directory). When looking at this overview, the C: drive is considered the current directory and root directory because there is nothing beneath it and you can't go back any further. This may also be referred to as a home directory if you're using an operating system with multiple accounts.
Tip: In a GUI such as Microsoft Windows, directories are commonly referred to as folders. However, a directory and folder are synonymous.
Overview of a directory and path
Below is an example of what a directory path would look like in MS-DOS.
In the above example, C: is the drive letter and the current directory is System32, which is a subdirectory of the Windows directory.
Overview of a Linux directory path
Below is an example of what a directory path may look like in a Linux or Unix variant.
In the above example, the current directory is bin and it is a subdirectory of the usr directory. The beginning forward slash is the root directory.
How to change a directory
To change a directory in MS-DOS, Linux, Unix, and most other command line operating systems, use the "cd" command.
How to make a directory
To make a directory in MS-DOS, Linux, Unix, and most other command line operating systems, use the "mkdir" command.
- MS-DOS and Windows command line mkdir and md command information
- Linux and Unix mkdir command information
- How to create a directory or folder.
How to delete a directory
To delete a directory in MS-DOS, use the "rmdir" command. In Linux and Unix, use the "rm -r" command.
Invalid directory characters
Below is a listing of reserved characters that cannot be used when creating a file or directory in most operating systems. When creating directories, if any of these characters are used, you'll receive an error or encounter other problems.

Lesley Pleasant Publishes Article
Posted: April 18, 2016
"Dogeared Hate: Yilmaz Arslan's Brudermord/Fratricide (2005), a new type of Heimatfilm," an article by Lesley Pleasant, associate professor of German, has been published in the April/May 2016 volume of the German Studies journal, Pandaemonium Germanicum.
This paper focuses on the Heimat (home) metaphor of the Pit Bull in Yilmaz Arslan's Brudermord/Fratricide (2005), a film about Turkish migrants in Germany. Updating the genre for a world of fluid boundaries, Arslan's film self-reflexively posits transnational Heimatfilm as a possible bridge between "Others," as a means to facilitate conversations that might decrease the violence of the present dog-eat-dog world of the margin the film portrays.

Roger Pieroni gives presentation at conference
Posted: November 12, 2013
On November 8, Roger Pieroni, associate professor of French and Chair of the Department of Foreign Languages, gave a presentation titled, "Haitian Adoptions for U.S. Couples: Multitasking and Exploring Historical Context, Social Problems, and Legal Issues," at the 54th Annual Conference of the American Translators Association in San Antonio, Texas.
The presentation was given in French and related to the unique challenges of translating international adoption files from English to French. The translation of a number of documents pertaining to a wide array of disciplines (vital records, financial statements, psychological evaluations, health certificates, etc.) requires the translator to use a variety of styles, registers, and terminology. In addition, a basic understanding of the political, cultural, and linguistic strands that shaped Haitian history is needed to produce a good quality translation for this type of project.
Pieroni, who is an ATA certified E>F translator, discussed those issues and used examples from actual translations to illustrate relevant points.

Roger Pieroni to Present Andiron Lecture on Vietnamese Francophone Novels
Posted: November 4, 2013
As part of the University of Evansville's Andiron Lecture Series in the liberal arts and sciences, Roger Pieroni, chair of UE's Department of Foreign Languages and associate professor of French, will present "Literary and Cultural Identities in the Vietnamese Francophone Novel" at 4 p.m. Wednesday, November 6 in Eykamp Hall, Room 252 in UE's Ridgway University Center. His lecture is free and open to the public.
Vietnamese francophone novels – written in French between the 1920s and 1950s by Vietnamese writers – have been the focus of much research in recent years. Pieroni's lecture will focus on two such novels: Vingt ans by Nguyen Duc Giang, and Bà-Dâm by Albert de Teneuille and Truong Dinh Tri.
"This lecture will examine the literary heritages that these novelists explored to create an original Vietnamese literary genre," Pieroni said. "It will also examine the cultural and identity issues raised by the colonial domination that was imposed upon the Vietnamese society."
Pieroni completed his undergraduate studies at the Université Clermont II in France, and earned his master's degree and PhD in French literature from Indiana University. Before coming to UE, Pieroni taught French at Central College in Pella, Iowa, and at the University of Puerto Rico. He holds certification with the American Translators Association as an English-French translator and does work for various translation companies and providers. Pieroni has also published numerous articles on francophone literature.
Established in 1982, the Andiron Lectures in the liberal arts and sciences offer stimulating research, commentary, and reflection from many fields of study. Presenters are primarily drawn from the faculty of UE's College of Arts and Sciences but also include faculty members and administrators from across the University campus and contributions from the regional community.

Pieroni's topic will be "Literary and Cultural Identities in the Vietnamese Francophone Novel." In the fast developing field of francophone literature, the Vietnamese francophone novel, a corpus of texts written in French between the 1920s and the 1950s by Vietnamese writers in what was then called Indochina, has been the focus of much research in recent years. This lecture will examine literary heritages that these novelists explored to create an original Vietnamese literary genre. It will also examine the cultural/identity issues raised by colonial domination that was imposed upon the Vietnamese society. This presentation will focus on two novels: Nguyen Duc Giang's Vingt ans, and Bà-Dâm by Albert de Teneuille and Truong Dinh Tri.
Pieroni completed his undergraduate degree at the Université Clermont II in France, and earned his master's degree and PhD in French literature from Indiana University.

UE's Linguapalooza to Welcome 140 High School Students
Posted: October 9, 2013
A tango dancing lesson, a game of Jeopardy in Japanese, and an introduction to German science fiction writing are just a few of the activities planned for the ninth annual Linguapalooza, hosted by the University of Evansville's Department of Foreign Languages.
On Thursday, October 10, approximately 140 foreign language students from 11 area high schools will attend Linguapalooza, where they will hone their foreign language skills by participating in interactive cultural and conversational sessions throughout the day.
"Linguapalooza is a unique opportunity for high school foreign language students to spend a day immersed in their language of choice and learn about the culture they have chosen to study," said Roger Pieroni, chair of UE's Department of Foreign Languages. "Not only will the day enhance their current foreign language studies, but by working with UE's outstanding faculty and foreign language majors, they will get a taste of what it's like to be a student here at UE."
After a welcome in UE's Ridgway University Center, students will begin the day by taking a campus tour in their studied language (French, German, Japanese, or Spanish). They will spend the rest of the morning in sessions led by UE foreign language faculty members, who will engage students in activities and discussions on topics ranging from Latin music to Japanese manners and customs. The day's final session will provide a "mini-lesson" in an additional foreign language (Arabic, Chinese, French, Gaelic, German, Japanese, Portuguese, or Russian).
While students are in class, high school teachers will take part in a program of their own: a presentation by Pieroni and T. Scott Henne, UE's dean of admission, about the opportunities available to UE foreign language students.

Diana Rodríguez Quevedo interviewed by WNIN
Posted: September 19, 2012
Assistant Professor of Spanish Diana Rodríguez Quevedo was recently interviewed by Micah Schweizer for the WNIN Radio program, The Trend. The subject was her recent Andiron Lecture on campus titled, "Skipping Beats: The Impact of the Illegal Drug Trade on Colombian Music."
In her lecture, Rodríguez Quevedo discussed how Colombia's music has undergone transformations due to the influence of the illegal drug trade over the past four decades. Cumbia, once known as the emblematic rhythm of the nation, was replaced by vallenato, which itself faced competition from the production and commercialization of narcocorridos or prohibited corridos.
The radio interview focused on narcocorridos but also tied in the connection between music (vallenato) and the phenomenon of forced internal displacement in Colombia. Listen to the recorded interview.

What would Geo do?
George Orwell's book, "1984," was required reading when I went to high school. I found the text to be futuristic sci-fi, yet more than a bit disturbing. Several years ago I read it again. This time I found it difficult to read, quite disturbing and all too plausible. Ol' Geo may have hit the nail on the head - he just got the date wrong!
According to the article in the Marietta Times on Oct. 30, the Washington County sheriff is willing to spend $388,452 on two BearCat armored vehicles. Lots of taxpayers' money to protect his deputies and hopefully the local citizenry from desperados. Lots of money for two vehicles they "never, ever have to use."
Sheriff Mincks states: "How do you put a price on a person's life?" My goodness, Larry ... they've been doing just that since the beginning of time. For instance, Judas threw a guy named Jesus under the bus for 30 pieces of silver. The U.S. government knows to the penny how much it costs to send a group to Afghanistan for the fifth tour, whether he/she comes back alive - dead or disabled. They knew when they sent folks to World War II, Korea, Vietnam - the medical industry today thrives on putting a price on a person's life! Aren't we being a bit fascist Larry, saying, there's no way to put a price on a life?
Local, state and federal law enforcement agencies continue to "militarize" themselves. What is this statement they're trying to make? Control? Is control the answer? Does the sheriff's office need two armored cars to fulfill their oath. They, the sheriff and his deputies, took an oath to protect our constitutional rights. They didn't take an oath to control our constitutional rights. Or did they? Perhaps they will protect their "haves" from the "have nots." Who and what will the local sheriff's office do? Who/what will they choose? Should we just follow the money? Money and power is what it's all about, ain't it?
There's more grant money in the pipeline, too! ... Just hasn't arrived yet. What kind of stuff will be available when more grant money shows up? Let me make a suggestion - a drone. A drone with a stockpile of hell-fire missiles - that'll be a sure fire way to protect my constitutional rights, Sheriff Mincks. You can do it all from your office at Second and Putnam! An Abrams tank is another option. ... How about a Paladin artillery piece - 155-mm smart artillery projectile. You can drop a round down the vent pipe of anyone's house you're trying to protect.
Our society, our social order - morality in general - seems headed down the toilet ... at a high rate of speed. Our legislators can't seem to legislate morality - hell, they seem helpless/impotent in every respect. Is unrest - civil insurrection - martial law in our closer-than-you-think future? I'd say - yep, sure is!
I have few, if any, answers. I have seen this world and the people in it going to hell at a high rate of speed. I have seen our government inundate every portion of my life. I trust no law enforcement official or anyone on the government's payroll. Everyone that wants to help me has an agenda and it ain't about me.
What I do have are my family and a handful of friends whom I love and trust. We will be OK - it'll be a struggle, but we'll be OK ... or we'll die trying.
I also have a couple of questions: When was the last time the sheriff drove by my house? Also, what would Geo do?

Rocky Bars and Shores
This group contains seasonally flooded to intermittently exposed woodland, shrub, and herbaceous vegetation of bouldery and cobbly depositional bars, or less frequently bedrock exposures, on the shores and islands of large, high-gradient streams. Communities in this group are scattered throughout the Virginia mountains and Piedmont, primarily along major rivers and their largest tributaries. Habitats are influenced by a frequent regime of powerful flood scouring, including occasional scouring by ice flows during the winter months. Substrates vary from bedrock outcrops to deeply piled cobbles and boulders, with soils consisting of fine to coarse alluvial materials deposited among the rocks.
Vegetation varies from woodlands to entirely herbaceous or sparse. Common water-willow (Justicia americana) is one of the most widespread and characteristic herbs of rocky bars and shores in Virginia, often forming extensive, nearly monospecific beds. Another well-marked herbaceous type of this group, known from bouldery banks and bars along a number of mountain streams, is dominated by twisted sedge (Carex torta). The typical overstory on wooded depositional bars consists of moderately to widely spaced, often battered or flood-trained specimens of sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), river birch (Betula nigra), and willows (primarily black willow [Salix nigra] and Carolina willow [Salix caroliniana]). Stands located on broader, bedrock floodplains that are scoured by frequent powerful floods and ice flows have more diverse overstories of green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), swamp white oak (Quercus bicolor), eastern boxelder (Acer negundo var. negundo), American elm (Ulmus americana), sycamore, river birch, and other trees. Shrubs include silky dogwood (Cornus amomum and Cornus obliqua), American hornbeam (Carpinus caroliniana ssp. virginiana), and common ninebark (Physocarpus opulifolius var. opulifolius).
The herbaceous flora of rocky bars and shores is highly variable and includes species common to both ephemeral fine-textured sand, gravel, or mud bars (e.g., halberd-leaf rose-mallow [Hibiscus laevis]) and somewhat more stable, bedrock habitats (e.g., big bluestem [Andropogon gerardii]). The clasping-leaved dogbane (Apocynum sibiricum) is also particularly characteristic. These communities are threatened by rampantly invasive weeds such as purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) and Johnson-grass (Sorghum halepense), which are readily dispersed and established in high-energy alluvial environments.

West Point workers say furlough delays painful
HIGHLAND FALLS — West Point's union employees say the federal government's two-week delay in issuing furlough notices to workers affected by the process known as sequestration is only further complicating an already difficult situation.
A small group of members of Local 2367 of the American Federation of Government Employees gathered outside West Point's Thayer Gate at lunch time Tuesday to outline their complaints.
Don Hale, president of Local 2367 of the American Federation of Government Employees, said the delay will not reduce the 176 hours of furlough time that would be assessed against each employee.
"So it has to be compressed into a shorter time," said Hale, who works in West Point's Department of Public Works.
Furlough notices were to be issued last Friday, but now will not go out until April 5 at the earliest.
Sequestration — the label given by the government to a series of automatic budget cuts that took effect after Congress could not meet a deadline to come up with its own cuts — calls for unpaid furloughs for civilian employees through the end of the current fiscal year in September.
Hale added that without a firm date, workers who were planning to make up their lost income by taking a part-time job cannot give potential employers a start date until they knows when the furloughs will begin.
Roxanne Donnery, a Highland Falls resident, Orange County legislator and Democratic candidate for county executive, said the furloughs will affect many village residents who work for West Point.
Jim McCabe, vice president of Local 2367 and a public works employee at West Point's central power plant, said the unpaid furloughs will force workers to make difficult choices about where to cut expenses.
"Your landlord doesn't want to hear about (sequestration)," McCabe said. "Orange and Rockland Utilities doesn't want to hear it."

Right Triangles and Trigonometry
At a Glance - Trig Ratios
We organize our trigonometric measurements by comparing the sides of a right triangle, creating three trigonometric ratios: sine, cosine, and tangent.
Looking at ∠A, we can see clearly which side is adjacent, which is opposite, and which is the hypotenuse. Using these terms, we can define our three basic trigonometric ratios.
sin(A) = opposite / hypotenuse = a / h
cos(A) = adjacent / hypotenuse = b / h
tan(A) = opposite / adjacent = a / b
An easy way to remember which ratio is which is to just remember what someone who stubbed their foot would do and say. They'd soak their toe and say, "Ahhh."
Soak a toe, ahhh. SOHCAHTOA. Each letter stands for something:
Sine: Opposite over Hypotenuse
Cosine: Adjacent over Hypotenuse
Tangent: Opposite over Adjacent
It's important to know that these ratios depend on angles, not side lengths. That means it doesn't matter if a triangle is the size of Godzilla or the new iPod nano. If its angles are the same, it'll have the same trigonometric ratios.
We could stare at these fractions all day, but the only surefire way to learn trigonometry inside and out is to practice. Are you ready for this?
Sample Problem
We'll start simple and find the sine, cosine, and tangent for ∠A of this triangle.
That's all there is to it, putting one side over the other. For ∠C, though, these ratios would be different.
Since these ratios never change for similar angles, we can use them to find the side lengths of similar triangles. That's kind of the whole point of trigonometry.

WASHINGTON (January 15, 2014) The deadly attack on a diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, could have been prevented if U.S. officials had heeded warnings of terrorist activity, including threats to Western targets, and had improved security in response to those warnings, a Senate Intelligence Committee report says.
The report also says analysts inaccurately referred to protests as the reason for the violence, without enough intelligence to rely on.
Committee chairman Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., says she hopes this will put to rest conspiracy theories about the militant attacks that night.
Republican vice chairman Saxby Chambliss says the report shows despite a deteriorating security situation in Benghazi, the U.S. government did not do enough to prevent the attacks.
The committee report makes 18 recommendations to improve security at diplomatic and intelligence posts overseas.

OxyContin is a trade name for the drug oxycodone hydrochloride. Manufactured by Purdue Pharma L.P., OxyContin is a controlled-release form of oxycodone prescribed to treat chronic pain. When used properly, OxyContin can provide pain relief for up to 12 hours.
Recently, there has been a lot of media focus on this prescription drug due to increasing reports of its abuse. According to an Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) fact sheet, an estimated 1.6 million Americans used prescription-type pain relievers for non-medical reasons for the first time in 1998. Furthermore, ONDCP reports that the number of oxycodone emergency cases increased nearly 36 percent in a single year, from 3,369 in January to June 1999 to 5,261 in January to June 2000.
Oxycodone is an agonist opioid. Opioid agonists are some of the most effective pain relievers available. Unlike other analgesics, opioid agonists have an increasing analgesic effect with increased doses. Meaning that the more you take, the better you feel. Other analgesics, like aspirin or acetaminophen, have a threshold to their effectiveness. You can see why, particularly for people who suffer chronic pain, a medication like OxyContin can be so beneficial: It can potentially provide up to four times the relief of a non-opioid analgesic, so even the most severe degree of pain can be managed.
Once oxycodone enters the body, it works by stimulating certain opioid receptors that are located throughout the central nervous system, in the brain and along the spinal cord. When the oxycodone binds to the opioid receptors, a variety of physiologic responses can occur, ranging from pain relief to slowed breathing to euphoria.
When abused, OxyContin, like other opiates and opioids, can be dangerously addictive. Rather than ingesting the pill as indicated, people who abuse OxyContin use other methods of administering the drug. To avoid the controlled-release mechanism, they either chew, snort or inject the medication to get an instant and intense "high." Frequent and repeated use of the drug can cause the user to develop a tolerance to its effects, so larger doses are required to elicit the desired sensation and the abuser gets increasingly addicted to the drug.
Oxycodone-based products have been used illicitly for the past 30 years. Like other opioids, oxycodone can behighly addictive when used in non-medical circumstances. In the U.S., the drug carries an FDA "Black Box Warning"—the most severe warning to medical personnel and consumers that the drug has an "abuse liability similar to morphine." Labelling of the product in Canada lists similar contraindications and safety precautions.
Abuse of OxyContin was first reported in mid-2001 when some patients in rural areas of Virginia discovered that they could sell the drug, like other prescription opioids, for profit. Incidents of theft, robbery and prescription fraud made it hard for legitimate patients to obtain OxyContin since many pharmacies refused to carry it. Recent studies have demonstrated that trafficking in prescription drugs is one of the only cases where the product actually gains in value when sold illegally (as compared with stolen goods such as TVs and camcorders).

Today's outfit was all about comfort; my red dress for comfort in the muggy weather we've been having, and my green shoes for comfort because the toe I squashed under a chair last autumn has been giving a few twinges. I added a necklace as a concession to aesthetics, but the primary focus of this outfit was definitely not how it looked.
Necklace – East
Dress – Debenhams
Shoes – Greenshoes
And it was lovely to get home after another busy day to find a parcel full of gorgeous things waiting for me from the shawl swap I've been doing.
The notebook is particularly perfect, but the shawl is also beautiful and definitely something I'll enjoy wearing with more casual outfits. Thank you so much, swap partner!

News 12 at 6 o'clock, Monday, July 9, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Augusta's First Friday shooting is now considered gang related. Augusta mayor Deke Copenhaver and Sheriff Ronnie Strength are speaking out about where to go from here.
"Personally," declared Sheriff Ronnie Strength about First Friday. "I do not like it."
Have we seen the last First Friday event in downtown Augusta? Deputies are investigating a shooting involving 6 people.
"Every vendor will shut down, put there stuff in their vehicles, and they will leave," said Strength. "Therefore there is none of this going on after 10 o'clock at night."
The mass shooting is now considered gang related.
"We can't say these are young folks looking for something to do," said Strength. "They are also thugs that come down here that are looking for something to do, and they should not be around or associated with law abiding citizens."
Sheriff Strength is issuing an ultimatum to downtown merchants.
"If they want it," said Strength. "They should be paying for this. This is not a city sponsored event."
"I think they are barking up the wrong tree," said Dr. Benjamin Cassella who is president of the Downtown Business Alliance. "Until you pass a law to say that it's against the law to be an idiot, bad stuff is going to happen at midnight."
The mayor agrees.
"I think it is more about how can we improve it," said Copenhaver. "Nobody can flip the switch and pull the plug on people coming downtown on the first Friday of the month."
The city's top cop is not backing down. He wants business owners to pay up for extra security.
"If not," said Strength. "I would doubt First Friday would have much of a future."
The event is held each month from 5pm to 10pm.

"… shelter the homeless" Provide shelter, awaken hope, honor dignity
Provide Shelter: Terms like emergency shelter and transitional housing are common among the housing programs providing housing services to individuals and families who are homeless. This type of housing is time limited and though it will provide respite, often there is not enough support and intervention to end a family's poverty. This falling back into the cycle of homelessness reflects limits on housing programs, not a failure of the family or individual. The ladder out of chronic poverty and persistent homelessness requires achieving and strengthening one level before moving successfully to the next. Shelter Care Ministries is committed to self reflection and evaluation of our housing programs in our commitment to recognizing the extraordinary and complex needs of families, as well as developing a process for moving towards health and wholeness.
Awaken Hope/Honor Dignity:The housing staff at Shelter Care believes that people are whole and complete — that they have natural resources, and when given support and coaching will move to a place of hope and achievement for themselves and their children. This takes time, resources and space for people to discover they have the ability to plan and shape the path they will travel on in the future, and that circumstances are merely opportunities for reflection and re-framing.
Shelter Care is unique in that it houses families together, keeping mothers and fathers with their children or single moms or dads with their children together in one unit. The current eligibility is that parents must have children in their custody.
CURRENTLY SHELTER CARE OFFERS THE FOLLOWING HOUSING PROGRAMS OPTIONS: Level One Housing: Emergency Shelter – 6 months – 10 two or three bedroom units Level Two Housing: Transitional Housing – Up to 24 months – 7 units Permanent Supportive Housing — Family with Head of Household with a disability: 4 Units Permanent Supportive Housing — Family with Head of Household who is a Veteran: 4 units
Our Housing Program staff works with residents in partnership always honoring the resident's agenda, while holding accountability structures that support converting breakdowns to breakthroughs.

I bought a bunch of washi tapes when I was in Taiwan. First project is to update our switch plates. I thought about replacing our switch plates with something more stylish, but nice-looking switch plates are expensive. I don't feel like spending almost $20 on a single switch plate. With these cute washi tapes, I am able to update our switch plates with a fraction of the cost. I'm very happy with the result. I'm going to update all of our switch plates and outlet plates with this simple technique!
Wow!so pretty and thank you for the good ideas!

It's been a long weekend and we are looking forward to Monday, to get things moving again. We are so sad to see our doc go for a month but he really is only down the road at another hospital and can be reached it we need him. The other doc covering him is great it's just that we have a system with Dr. R that is very comfortable and convenient for us, meaning that we don't have to go through a lot of questioning when being admitted and we never have to give any information as He knows all of Gavin's information. But we'll sit tight, and it will be good to have a fresh set of eyes on the situation.
I'll try to update tomorrow after we hear the results of the ultrasound.

Even if the earnings slide stops at the present level of 60 cents per quarter, the stock is trading around 15x forward earnings. And we haven't seen the worst yet. The Fed is set to raise rates through year end.Will investors pay 15x EPS for a title insurer?? How about a title insurer with falling earnings??
All true! My reaction is not to sell and to hope to rebuy at a lower price, though. Instead, it's to hold and to buy even more if the price drops enough.It's the way I'm dealing with NTZ, too. I'm neither buying nor selling at currently prevailing prices per share.

AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) � Democratic leaders and union representatives are criticizing Maine Gov. Paul LePage for not being open about what actions he intends to take under his civil emergency proclamation.
The Republican governor proclaimed a civil emergency Wednesday, allowing him to suspend laws and regulations to better manage the impact the federal government shutdown is having on the state.
LePage says his goal is to get unemployment benefits to furloughed workers as quickly as possible.
But Democratic leaders say the civil emergency is an unnecessary overreach. Democrats and the Maine State Employees Association say LePage needs to be clear about what he plans to do with this power.
LePage met with Republican and Democratic leaders on Thursday to discuss the financial problems the state faces as the federal government continues.

In the annuls of heavy metal, when all is said and done, I continue to believe that Ronnie James Dio will endure as the greatest hard rock and heavy metal singer of all time. From his early days in Rainbow, until his last recordings with Heaven & Hell, there was no denying the force of nature that was Ronnie James Dio. He was everything that was great about metal; a caring, intelligent man who loved nothing more than the power of music. Throughout his illustrious career, Dio's voice became synonymous with metal, his voice the soundtrack of countless lives.
Everyone has seen the video for "Thriller". Rightfully so, too, it's a great song and the video was truly revolutionary for it's time. However, it crowds out dozens of other music videos that have drawn heavily from horror films for their inspiration. Because there are so many of these other, lesser known, videos, here's a list of 10 of my favorites from a pretty diverse mix of genres:
- The big news of the week, Alice Cooper and Rob Zombie are not only touring together, but they've posted dates! Which are...sparse...to say the least. A handful of Mid- and West-Canadian dates, topped off with two in the booming metropolises (metropoli? metropolies? metropoliseses? What's the plural of metropolis?) of Kennewick, Washington and Casper, Wyoming. Let's hope this is a warm up for a bigger tour, perhaps around Halloween.
- Fear Factory also just announced their tour dates, so heads up to fans on the west coast and in the southwestern US.
I haven't spoken much about the upcoming metal-infused adventure game "Brütal Legend" starring Jack Black, mostly because I think Metalocalypse took metal irony, perfected it, and then beat it to death. However, with cameos from the likes of Ozzy Ozbourne and Rob Halford, 'Legend' should be an entertaining, if not very fun game. Up until recently, that fun included the vocal talent of one Ronnie James Dio (Black Sabbath, Rainbow, etc.), but that is no longer.

They call this a girls bag, what a misnomer! I am 5'4 and just returned from over 3 weeks in Ireland & England with over 8 hotel changes along the way and I love this bag! It was fabulous, held a lot and I could always easily distinguish it from the mass of other bags!

It is an awesome bag! Just like everything Dakine makes, it is super stylish, and it has tons of really neat features that help you organize all of your stuff. Also, it never seems to be completely filled even when packing for long trips! There's always room for one more this or one more that!

It does everything I want a suitcase to do. I can live right out of the suitcase. The sections kept me organized and worked well for me, and it is truly lightweight so I could weigh it down with my personal effects instead of the suitcase being heavy!

I love this bag; it fits everything your heart desires and then some. It's practical and large, has handles in convenient places, and is durable. Only drawback: it doesn't stand on its own! If you let go of it for a second it falls forward. The feet in the front don't hold it up, even if it's empty!

I love the design of this bag and can't find another brand even similar in design. It seems so perfect, but, alas, I'm sending it back. The major drawback in keeping it for me is the quality. I'm not convinced it will hold up to the rigors and abuse the baggage handlers impose.

Knowing how many visits your WordPress blog receives is an important statistic that will help you understand what type of content is most appealing to your visitors. You may also use this information to pinpoint the areas in which changes need to be made. All analytical tags are placed in the same location in a Web page; how you add the tags in WordPress is what requires a unique effort.
Step 1
Sign up for an analytical tracking service. It's not necessary to spend money for this type of service – free options exist. The most widely used Web traffic analysis service is Google Analytics (link in Resources). It offers many of the Web tracking features that commercial analytics firms provide.
Step 2
Sign in to your new analytics account.
Step 3
Obtain the tracking code. You'll find this under Settings or Admin. The code, which is a snippet of JavaScript, includes your account number. Copy it for future use.
Step 4
Log in to your WordPress dashboard.
Step 5
Navigate to the "Editor" section. Select "Appearance" in the left navigation menu, then select "Editor." The primary layout code and CSS for your website can be accessed here.
Step 6
Locate the "Header" file; it should be listed under "Templates" on the right side of the page. If it isn't labeled "Header," look for and select a file named "header.php." This file is included on all of the pages of your WordPress site.
Step 7
Add the analytics code to your Header file. Scan the code for the closing tag, and place the JavaScript code you obtained earlier directly above it. Click "Update File" when you are ready to continue.
Step 8
View your live WordPress website. Right-click on the Web page and select "View Source." Search the code to verify that your JavaScript code is now present.
Step 9
Test the results. Log in to your analytics dashboard and look under "Visits." Data should begin displaying within a few minutes in Google Analytics; other services may take up to a day to begin displaying results.

Memorial Day marks the unofficial start of summer, which means millions of people will hit the nation's back roads and highways en route to vacation destinations. In fact, AAA reports that an additional 500,000 cars will hit the road this Memorial Day weekend compared to last year although many will stay closer to home. Stop and go traffic, poor vehicle maintenance and cars laden with vacation gear can reduce fuel economy significantly.
With 100,000 drivers on the road throughout the world, we have mastered the art and science of fuel conservation. Via a combination of technology and driver behavior, UPS avoided driving more than 63.5 million miles in one year with an associated emissions avoidance of 68,000 metric tonnes.

Radiohead Lets Consumers Pay What They Want for Latest Album
After Radiohead's contract with EMI/Capitol expired following their last album, Hail to the Thief, they decided to take a different path. Rather than sign a new contract for their upcoming record, In Rainbows, the extremely popular British rock band will post it exclusively for download on Radiohead.com beginning October 10th. The price? "It's up to you." Or, in other words, consumers can choose what amount (if any) they want to pay for the album.
Thom Yorke, Radiohead's lead singer, commented, "I like the people at our record company, but the time is at hand when you have to ask why anyone needs one. And, yes, it probably would give us some perverse pleasure to say 'F___ you' to this decaying business model."
Record label officials were stunned at the announcement. One lamented, "This feels like yet another death knell. If the best band in the world doesn't want a part of us, I'm not sure what's left for this business." A producer who works with American rap artist had a more economical outlook. "Radiohead is the best band in the world; if you can pay whatever you want for music by the best band in the world, why would you pay $13 dollars or $.99 cents for music by somebody less talented? Once you open that door and start giving music away legally, I'm not sure there's any going back."
