After what was an extraordinary weekend last week in Australia, the teams head north-west for the second round of the championship at the Sepang circuit, just outside Kuala Lumpar in Malaysia.
The circuit made it's F1 debut in 1999 after funding by the Malaysian government, and has proved to be a popular addition to F1. It became the benchmark for F1 in terms of facilities for both the F1 personnel and fans—so much so that following the inaugural race there the teams felt the facilities at the following round in Suzuka were cramped despite being classed as one of the biggest in F1!
The pitlane length and profile (i.e. corners in the pitlane entry) contribute to the determination of the optimum fuel strategy. The pitlane loss at Sepang is approximately 22 seconds, the fifth most penalising pitlane in the Championship.
To complete a normalised distance of 5km around the Sepang circuit requires 2.38kg of fuel against an average of 2.42kg per 5km across all circuits this season, making the circuit the fifth least demanding track of the year in terms of fuel consumption.
As for the track itself, it is mostly a mix of medium and high speed corners. While there are tight corners which require good traction, two fast chicanes and long sweeping corners dominate the circuit's character. It is also very wide, reaching 20 meters at it's widest point, so plenty of room for overtaking.
And, unlike Melbourne, the circuit is used regularly all year round to events like MotoGP (racing and testing), Formula Nippon, GP2 Asia and various national formulae. Let's take a closer look at the circuit now and see where time can be gained and lost
Turns 1 and 2
Like Melbourne, the first two turns can be counted as one. The drivers approach the first corner at 190mph and brake heavy into a long, sweeping but tight first turn. Over the years we have seen some incidents at this turn—most notably the clash between Michael Schumacher and Juan Pablo Montoya back in 2002. But it's at Turn 2 where most of the dramas have happened. From Turn 1 it's a small swirt of the throttle before braking into Turn 2, which is a tight, second gear left-hander. During the first race here we had two notable events with different outcomes—Pedro Diniz and Damon Hill collided on the first lap, then David Coulthard defied convention and passed Michael Schumacher with an ambitious move. Schumacher was also involved in another incident in 2003, nudging Jarno Trulli into a spin and receiving a penalty for his troubles. Traction coming out of the turn is very important as this will determine the speed right down to Turn 4.
Turns 3 and 4
Turn 3 isn't considered by many of the drivers as a corner, as it is a flat-out blast towards Turn 4. It is similar in ways to the sweep down to the hairpin at Hockenheim, and the advantage of this is that turbulent air shouldn't be as much an issue and this should create a possibility for a chance to overtake—although this shouldn't be an issue with the new regulations. Turn 4 is a second gear, 90-degree right hander which seems simple at first but can be tricky to take. The cars tend to understeer as the drivers initially turn in, making clipping the apex hard, but in order to get a good lap they have to clip the apex, so with the new regulations permitting the driver to change the front wing angle twice a lap expect it to be used a lot here, especially during qualifying.
Turns 5 and 6
The first of the two fast chicanes on the circuit and the two corners that the drivers enjoy the most. Despite the short run from Turn 4, the drivers are already hitting 150mph as they turn left into Turn 5 and they sweep into the corner, dealing with g-forces of 2.5 in the middle of the corner. Then it is immediately right into Turn 6 - something which some drivers over the years have failed to achieve as it is easy to understeer wide and across the grass. It is important for the drivers to keep up a high minimum speed here in order to achieve a good lap time, and on a good lap the drivers will be hitting around 165 MPH as they exit Turn 6.
Turns 7 and 8
Yet another set of corners that can be counted together, and a very impressive set of corners. The drivers approach Turn 7 at around 170 MPH and touch the brakes and flick down 3 gears, turning right as hard as they can to clip the apex of the corner. Then Turn 8 follows immediately, not even allowing the drivers time to straighten the steering wheel as they must continue turning right and clip the apex once again. If a car is set up good then they will be able to take Turn 8 full throttle, whereas a car with problems will need to take a small confidence lift. However not every driver who takes it full throttle can make it through here unscathed - Robert Kubica spun here in 2007, and Felipe Massa spun into retirement at the same corner a year later
Turn 9
The slowest corner on the circuit can be more tricky than it first seems. The cars brake heavily on the right hand side before turning in, once again clipping the apex, before trying to get as much as traction as possible exiting the corner. Bizarrely, this is the most popular spot on the circuit for the leaders to lap slower cars, and over the years has seen some overtaking moves - some successful (notably Schumacher and Barrichello in 2001 in drying conditions) but mostly unsuccessful (Irvine on local hero Alex Yoong back in 2002).
Turns 10 and 11
As the drivers exit Turn 9 they enter what seems to be a never-ending Turn 10, constantly sweeping right and building up speed, while dealing with g-forces of up to 3g. Then they enter Turn 11, which has a tricky entry as the drivers are braking, turning and downshifting into the corner. Once again, it is important yet difficult to clip the apex of the corner, letting fans and rivals know who has a good setup on their car and who will struggle. It is important to run wide onto the kerb at the exit of the corner as this will allow the driver to build up as much speed to carry into the next corner.
Turns 12 and 13
The second of the fast chicanes may not be as fast as the first, but is more tricky to drive. As the drivers turn left into Turn 12, the track dips away slightly from them, causing the back end to get light and sometimes a bit loose. Then it is straight into Turn 13, which is very similar to Turn 10 as it is a long sweeping right hander, and also the braking point into Turn 13. It is quite easy to make a mistake on the exit of the corner - as Takuma Sato and Fernando Alonso can testify as going off there in qualifying in recent years.
Turn 14
The penultimate corner on the track is quite possibly the most important as it leads into the best overtaking spot on the circuit. As I said before, the braking area for this corner is in the heart of Turn 13, and it is diffcult for the driver to get turned in. However, the drivers must get the car turned in as quickly as possible in order to build up as much speed as possible for the back straight—a good exit from this corner could mean a gain in position going into the next.
Turn 15
The final corner, and the widest part of the circuit at 20 M. The drivers brake heavily into the final corner from 195 MPH and shift down from seventh to second gear, hitting a minimum speed of 54 MPH. It is also the scene of many overtaking moves over the years—the most memorable being Haikkinen on Herbert in 1999, Schumacher on Button in 2002 and 2003, and the three-way battle between Nick Heidfeld, Mark Webber and Ralf Schumacher in 2005. But not all overtaking moves here are successful—Giancarlo Fisichella and Mark Webber had a very messy conclusion to their battle in 2005 with both retiring on the spot. The exit of the corner is vital for two reasons—the first being that the entry to the pit lane is just before the exit and therefore any time gained here will be gained in the pits, and secondly the speed out of the corner determines the speed down the pit straight.
So there it is—your guide to Sepang. It is celebrating it's 11th F1 race this weekend, and with only three previous winners in the field it is unlikely that past form could be a factor here. But after the domination of the Brawn team in Australia, who wants to bet against them again this weekend?

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
by Mark Haddon
Love Quotes in The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
How we cite our quotes:
Quote #1
We do this because sometimes Father wants to give me a hug, but I do not like hugging people, so we do this instead, and it means that he loves me. (31.5)
We don't know about you, but we find this image both really sweet and devastatingly sad. Maybe we just really like hugging. Sure, there's nothing intrinsic about hugs that screams "love." You can hug people you don't like – your opponent in a boxing match, say, or your least-favorite relative. But there's certainly something in an embrace that signals a deep emotional connection. To imagine Christopher and his father touching fingertips seems like a terribly inadequate replacement.
Quote #2
But Mother was cremated. This means that she was put into a coffin and burnt and ground up and turned into ash and smoke. I do not know what happens to the ash and I couldn't ask at the crematorium because I didn't go to the funeral. But the smoke goes out of the chimney and into the air and sometimes I look up into the sky and I think that there are molecules of Mother up there, or in clouds over Africa or the Antarctic, or coming down as rain in the rainforests in Brazil, or in snow somewhere. (61.12)
There are a lot of passages in this book that suggest that Christopher has no understanding of love, and is unable to have affection for another person. But this passage express the essence of having love for another human being better than any number of hugs and kisses could possibly be.
Quote #3
But when you get married it is because you want to live together and have children, and if you get married in a church you have to promise that you will stay together until death do us part. And if you don't want to live together you have to get divorced and this is because one of you has done sex with somebody else or because you are having arguments and you hate each other and you don't want to live in the same house any more and have children. (67.100)
Okay, let's see… marriage. Want to live together? Check. Want to have children? Check. Stay together? Check. Monogamy? Check. Hmm, that's strange, aren't we missing something? Marriage… there's got to be something else. Oh, wait, that's right: LOVE! Right, that's at the heart of why people get married, yet Christopher makes no mention of it.

I'm having issues trying to install a wordpress blog on debian squeeze with wordpress 3.3.2.
Making sure virtual hosts works with apache2
I would like the blog to be at "blog.hostname.edu" with the files hosted at /some/path that is NFS mounted. So I first made sure that virtual hosts would work with apache, added a line to etc/hosts and put a dummy index.php there. That works. I should mention that root does NOT have write access to this folder /some/path.
Installing wordpress
I created a database following instructions here. http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#Using_the_MySQL_Client.
I tested the database using the testconnection.php file here
I then added a configuation file to /etc/apache2/conf.d using the example given in /usr/share/doc/wordpress/examples. I linked the wordpress installation to my folder at /some/path. I threw out the old wp-config.php and used the wp-config-sample.php to create one tailored to my database info. But I keep getting a "error connecting to database" at the end. Anything I've missed?

B.S. in Biology, University of Colorado Denver
Research interests:
The family Filoviridae contains two genera of nonsegmented, negative-strand, RNA viruses. Filoviruses are highly lethal hemorrhagic fever viruses with fatality rates of up to 90% and must be handled in maximum containment. My research involves investigating the dynamics of filovirus adaptive evolution. Specifically, my research focuses on the idea that filoviruses have high spontaneous mutation rates that are important for viral diversity, virus biology and pathogenicity.
Related RNA viruses show high rates of spontaneous mutation and my preliminary research indicates that significant diversity does exist within filovirus populations. High spontaneous mutation rates may lead to rapid evolution and the generation of a heterogeneous viral genome population, typically referred to as "quasispecies." High spontaneous mutations rates and the resulting quasispecies help give viruses adaptive potential because they allow viruses to rapidly respond to selection pressures. Quasispecies and rapid adaptation are thought to be involved in emergence, diverse tissue tropisms, diverse host ranges, and high potential for spread to new regions.
Over the course of my project, I aim to identify the genetic and phenotypic changes in filoviruses during adaptation to cell culture. Specifically, I will determine how serial passage affects replication efficiency, infectivity, morphology, and viral genome sequence. In addition, I aim to characterize filovirus diversity in vivo.

From the Author
The decision to drop support for PHP 4 was liberating. I realized that some tasks, such as uploading files and creating thumbnails, could be much better handled by custom classes. I hadn't been able to do that in the first edition because classes in PHP 4 and PHP 5 are mutually incompatible. The classes break complex tasks into simple, easy-to-understand operations. Better still, all the code is project-neutral, so you can reuse the classes in other websites by writing no more than a dozen lines of code -- sometimes less.
Although the book retains the original structure of the first edition, all the code has been completely rewritten, making it cleaner and more efficient. Other new features include displaying the results of a news feed using SimpleXML and the Standard PHP Library (SPL). There's also detailed coverage of the date and time classes introduced in PHP 5.2 and 5.3. The chapter on working with multiple database tables has been expanded to explain how to implement foreign key constraints in InnoDB, the default storage engine in MySQL 5.5.
This new edition requires PHP 5.2 and MySQL 4.1 or later. The code won't work in earlier versions.
Please note that the example files for the book are now located on the main Apress website. The friends of ED address on page xvii is no longer valid.
From the Back Cover
- Updates to the first edition with the latest PHP techniques for modern, dynamic web design
- Create dynamic websites with design and usability in mind, as well as functionality
- Understand how PHP scripts work, giving you confidence to adapt them to your own needs
- Bring online forms to life, check required fields, and ensure user input is safe to process
- Upload files and automatically create thumbnails from larger images
- Manage website content with a searchable database
This is a "must have" reference book for any Web developer using PHP scripting language. If you have read the first edition classic, then this update will bring you the latest PHP techniques and best practices. If you are new to dynamic web design with PHP, then David will introduce you to the core techniques and methods for dynamic PHP web sites, ready for the 21st century!

Hey everyone,
First of all, awesome plugin! Unfortunately I'm struggling a bit with some customization and wanted to post this just to see if anyone had any thoughts.
Right now Facetious just lists taxonomy filters all one on top of another, seemingly ignoring hierarchy.
Is it possible to display taxonomy filter dropdowns hierarchically, similar to how WordPress' own wp_dropdown_categories() function handles it?
I tried stealing some of the code related to the function mentioned above but haven't had any luck so far in making it work with Facetious.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Application for the Upper Division:
Students must be formally admitted to the School of Nursing, which is an upper division major. Admission to UNCG does not guarantee admission to the upper division major. Only students who have formal, written acceptance into the School will be permitted to register in advanced nursing courses and complete work for the major. Admission should normally be sought during the sophomore year and applications are available in the School of Nursing or on our website from December 1 until the late January/early February deadline of each year. Transcripts from all post-secondary schools attended must be submitted with the application as these grades are also taken into consideration during the admissions process. Students are notified of the School's decision regarding acceptance in mid-to-late March. Admission is extremely competitive as the number of applications typically exceeds the number of available spaces each year.
Minimum Criteria for Admission to the upper division major are printed in the UNCG Bulletin. They include:
- Overall grade point average of 3.0 or higher.
- A grade of "C" (2.0) or better in each of the following courses: BIO 271 or KIN 291, BIO 277 or KIN 292, BIO 280, HDF 211, PSY 121, CHE 104, SOC 101 or SOC 202 or ATY 100 or RCO 215, NTR 213, PHI 121 or PHI 220 or RCO 203, and STA 108.
- No more than two of the above prerequisite courses may be repeated to earn the minimum grade or better. Prerequisite courses may be repeated only one time.
- Score on the TEAS-V (Test of Essential Academic Skills) is due by the application deadline. Information regarding requirements for the TEAS-V test is found below.
- Current certification as a CNAI is a pre-requisite to NUR 210.
- Matriculation into the upper division is contingent upon receipt of a satisfactory evaluation signed by the student's physician of the applicant's physical and emotional health to provide nursing care. Forms will be sent to the students who are admitted to the upper division.
Due to the competitive nature of this program, successful applicants typically present much higher credentials for admission. Students may not enroll in nursing courses beyond the foundation level courses without being admitted to the School. Application for admission is possible while students are still completing the prerequisite courses, but unconditional admission cannot be granted until all admission criteria have been successfully completed.
The Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS)
The Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) is a standardized test required for the School of Nursing application to the Upper Division, pre-licensure BSN program.
UNC Greensboro's School of Nursing consistently has received many more applicants than we can provide seats for, making for a very competitive admission process. The applicant's GPA (grade point average) has been used as the primary admission criteria; however, a GPA can be very different between universities. In addition, the wide variety of electives and various degrees students take has made the GPA a less reliable predictor of success in nursing school. Thus, the faculty of the School of Nursing approved the use of the Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) as the standardized test for students to take.
The Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) measures basic essential skills in the academic content area of reading, mathematics, science, English and language usage. The test is intended for use primarily with adult nursing program applicants. The objectives assessed on TEAS V are those which nurse educators deemed most appropriate and relevant to measure entry level skills and abilities of nursing program applicants.
* The deadline for the application to the Upper Division, including the TEAS V results, is February 1, 2016.
Registering for the TEAS (through PSI, formerly Pearson Vue)
Please open the PDF file below for instructions on how to set up an account then register for TEAS with PSI.
Once you create an account and decide you are going to go through PSI to take the exam, you will be able to:
- Select and pay for the exam
- Schedule the exam
- Confirm testing appointment instantly
- Review appointment status
- Reschedule appointments (see PSI policy for rescheduling)
- Take online practice tests
- Get email reminders

"Layer a cotton tee under a sweater-the natural fibers absorb moisture," says NYC derm Doris Day. Also try a stronger sweat blocker, like Secret Clinical Strength Anti-Perspirant, $7.99.

Arizona State Sun Devils
Fork Report: Bizarre ending gives Grice, ASU signature victory over Wisconsin
TEMPE, Ariz. — Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.
In front of a national television audience, Todd Graham claimed his signature win as time ran out on Wisconsin before a potential game-winning field goal attempt could even be kicked.
Behind running back Marion Grice's three second half touchdowns, ASU held on for a 32-30 upset win over the 20th-ranked team in the country at Sun Devil Stadium Saturday.
Trailing 21-13 late in the third quarter, the Sun Devils scored on three straight possessions with Grice finding the end zone on each the scoring drives. Grice finished the game with 84 yards and four touchdowns.
ASU improved to 9-0 all-time against visiting Big Ten teams.
For the second straight game, quarterback Taylor Kelly passed for 300 yards. He completed 29-of-51 for 352 yards. His favorite target once again was junior college addition Jaelen Strong, who caught six balls for 104 yards. Defensively, Osahon Irabor led the way with seven tackles, including two-and-a-half for a loss and a sack.
Too many dropped passes, which stalled drives and halted momentum for the Sun Devil offense. There was also a costly special teams error that led to a Wisconsin score: A bad snap to punter Dom Vizzare was recovered in the end zone by Beau Allen, which at the time gave the Badgers a 14-3 lead early in the second quarter.
When the clock read 0:00. There were two lead changes in the game, but an opportunity for a third and ultimately the victory never happened as Wisconsin couldn't stop the clock in time to run its field goal team out for what may have been the game-winning play.
Grice. He became the first Sun Devil to rush for four touchdowns in a game since Mike Williams ran for four at Arizona on Nov. 29, 2002. Grice now has 12 total touchdowns (10 rushing, two receiving) in his last five games and 25 career touchdowns in his first 15 games wearing the Sun Devil uniform.
– The Sun Devils win their first game in which Kelly threw an interception.
– Scouts from 10 NFL teams were in attendance: Bills, Colts, Cowboys, Giants, Lions, Jaguars, Jets, Ravens, Titans and 49ers.
"We just beat the defending Big Ten champion, but we made so many mistakes," Graham said.
ASU (2-0) hits the road for the first time, traveling to Pac-12 champion Stanford on Saturday, September 21. The game is scheduled to kick-off at 4:00 p.m. MST on FOX; and of course on the Sun Devils flagship station Arizona Sports 620 KTAR with pregame coverage starting at 2:00 p.m. MST.

Thirteen Reasons Why

Thirteen Reasons Why Choices Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #1
Why would you want to mail out a bunch of tapes blaming you in a suicide? You wouldn't. But Hannah wants us, those of us on the list, to hear what she has to say. And we'll do what she says if only to keep them away from the people not on the list. (3.69)
Clay is afraid he's being manipulated by Hannah, especially during the early tapes. It's important to him that his decision to listen be his own.
Quote #2
It always makes me want to grab him by the shirt and push him until he lets the girl go.
But instead, every time, I pretend not to notice.
What could I do anyway? (4.25-27)
Although his name hasn't yet been revealed, Clay is talking about Bryce Walker, whose bullying he feels powerless to stop. Do you think he still feels this way after he hears Hannah's tapes? What will he do the next time he sees Bryce hurting someone?

Possible Greek Solution: Two Drachmas
The Greek solution and the ultimate end to the euro crisis is a currency devaluation, full stop.
The problem is that there has been no consensus on how this could be accomplished without triggering even more contagion and economic chaos. But let me humbly offer my advice to the wise men of Europe. There is a way out: a dual currency for Greece and a temporary multiple exchange rate mechanism for the euro zone as a whole. It is cumbersome, but it would work. Hear me out.
There are generally two reasons for adopting dual exchange rates. The most pressing is to create relief from a crisis in trade balances while controlling the broader balance of payments arising from capital flows. The second reason is to control the runaway inflation that typically accompanies a devaluation.
Here's how it would work:
First, Athens establishes a Convertible drachma, a hard physical currency to be used for all commercial transactions–both internal and external trade in goods and services–to replace the common European currency for all payments. The exchange rate of this secondary currency floats, with its value determined by markets, albeit with the occasional intervention of the Greek central bank.
Second, all financial transactions are handled with a Financial drachma. This is not a physical currency but an elevated fixed rate determined by the International Monetary Fund and the European Central Bank at which both the government and private debtors can exchange their Convertible drachma into Financial drachma, primarily for the purpose of settling euro-denominated debts. These transactions would have to occur through a central authority and would necessarily come with strict controls on both inflows and outflows of capital to prevent players from gaming the system. Euros obtained via a Financial drachma-based transaction could not later be used to buy Convertible drachma at the cheaper rate.
In the meantime, Greece would have its own currency and regain a badly needed trade advantage with Europe and the rest of the world. That would fuel growth and, along with cost-cutting austerity measures, would give Athens an extra mechanism for growing its way out of its mammoth debt-to-GDP dilemma. Austerity alone has been shown not work, since the debt is too large and under current plans will never be repaid. Greece also needs growth.
At the same time, by putting a government-fixed floor on the devaluation of the Financial drachma, losses would be contained in a more predictable manner for bondholders. Since uncertainty has been a major factor behind the contagion selling with which banks have responded to the Greek default risk, this would go a long way to limiting the wider fallout.
All dealings in the Convertible drachma euro would require strict documentation to prevent financial market participants from shorting the currency and creating further contagion and unnecessary inflation. There would also have to be zero tolerance for corruption inside the authority handling the Financial drachma transactions. Past attempts at dual currency regimes have often failed because weak institutions and corruption have let people exploit the arbitrage opportunities. But in this case, the operation would be overseen by the ECB and the IMF, boosting confidence in the process.
Since the Financial drachma rate would be set such a level as to include a discount on the outstanding debt, all private bondholders would be compelled to take a haircut, no discussion. All previous private financial transactions would also take a haircut. In this way, the world would share the Greek pain.
Eventually, however, with the Financial drachma pegged against the common European currency, a floor would be set under Greek obligations. From current levels–which already factor in a huge Greek haircut–publicly traded debt could only rise in price. With a crisis averted, yields across all of Europe would fall. Investors would rush into capture relatively high yields in Europe and the spread of contagion would end.
At such a time as when Greek debt-to-GDP reaches an acceptable pre-determined level, the country will then have a choice: It can opt back into the euro or fully revert to its own currency. But by then, the answer to that question won't matter. The only thing that will matter is that Greece will once again be in control of its own destiny.

All My Sons Memory and the Past Quotes
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Act.Line). Every time a character talks counts as one line, even if what they say turns into a long monologue.
Quote #1
Frank: Larry was born in August. He'd been twenty-seven this month. And his tree blows down. (1.30)
Frank is making a retroactive horoscope for Larry, which is why he remembers the missing soldier's birthday.
Quote #2
Keller: She's dreaming about him again. She's walking around at night. (1.162)
Keller is frustrated by his wife's stubborn refusal to accept the death of their son Larry.
Quote #3
Mother: Everything that happened seems to be coming back. I was just down the cellar, and what do I stumble over? His baseball glove. I haven't seen it in a century. (1.254)
Kate subtly but very powerfully inserts reminders of Larry into the conversation, making it more difficult for Joe and Chris to be honest with her about their own belief that he's dead. She wants to maintain a certain reality.

"Climbing, Hiking, Mountain Biking, Skiing" Top 5 Page for this destination Chamonix-Mont-Blanc by firechick
Chamonix-Mont-Blanc Travel Guide: 322 reviews and 689 photos
As this is my home town, I will try every season to put some recent updates on this page.
In addition to the detailed tips here on VT, there is a page of links I maintain for another web page, and it has some ways to find even more great information on Chamonix and the surrounding alpine region including the border sections of Italy and Switzerland.
Winter 2011/2012 and 2012/2013
An amazing winter with tons of snow early in 2011 -- including a major snowstorm on New Year's Eve that made things fun :-).
2012/13 is looking like it will be the 2nd good winter in a row as close to 2m of snow fell on an already good base and it is not even Christmas yet !
For current Chamonix weather, the best site is: Chamonix Meteo. Other sites are not nearly as accurate. Like mountain weather everywhere Chamonix has very changeable forecasts. Be sure to check the forecast the day before you go out - it often changes day to day and often is useless to check more than 3 days ahead.
Get real time listings of lifts in town from the Compagnie du Mont Blanc website for most of the valley's hiking access, and also from the Les Houches website. which a lot of people use for mountain biking, as the hills there are not as extreme as in Chamonix. Mountain biking trails have also been put in at Le Tour / Vallorcine (Domain de Balme) and that lift now runs in summer season to accommodate the bikers.
Argentiere is just up the valley from Chamonix (10 min) and is part of the same commune. The town is much smaller, but has in my opinion a more beautiful old section. It is at a higher altitude than Chamonix (by about 600 ft) and so gets more snowy in the winter.
Skiing in winter at the Grandes Montets is just amazing and this ski area is almost too well known for 'extreme' skiing and off-piste. In fact, it gets tracked out quite fast in high season!
In summer, hiking up to the Argentiere Glacier is a very cool thing to do (you can also hike on it and ice climb on parts of it in winter). You can also quite easily hike from Argentiere to the Swiss border.
By hiking up the trail at the right side of it, you can get good (and safe) views of this glacier, and see the enormous crevasses that could swallow a house...... If you sit and watch it for awhile, you can sometimes hear the glacier moving with large 'cracking' sounds or even get lucky enough to see a large chunk of glacier fall from the big seracs near the end where it spills over a steep edge, down towards the valley. A very impressive glacier!
I have included Argentiere activities in these pages, rather than create a separate page for this town.
Other nearby towns also in the commune of Chamonix are (from down valley to up valley) Les Bossons, Le Mont, Les Pelerins, Les Praz de Chamonix, Les Tines, Argentiere, Le Tour & Vallorcine (which is the last town before the Swiss border). Anything in the Chamonix commune will be covered on the Chamonix page and the commune of Les Houches, which is just next to Les Bossons (ie 'down valley') is also included.
- Pros:Mountains mountains mountains
- Cons:Unpredictable weather, crowded in town in 'high season'
- In a nutshell:Wouldn't want to live anywhere else

Hi People,
I am using the Neutica+ child theme http://www.fthrwght.com/neuticaplus/demo/ and i have a problem displaying the theme's in-built horizontal menu on archives pages.
Neutica+ is a child theme of thematic. Neutica+ has a horizontal menu option in the theme settings with an option to turn it on / off.
When i turn it on, i cannot see the menu on category archives, or tag pages. It seems like the menu is not being called via PHP and i think I can see on my site, that the menu list is not being called into the HTML.
My website displays in every other way like the demo, except for the horizontal menu issue, as mentioned <http://www.fthrwght.com/neuticaplus/demo/>.
I have also tried contacting the developer and had no response for weeks, hence my post here. I only have beginners knowledge of PHP, so if it is a PHP issue, i am hoping someone could step me through a solution.
Many thanks and good vibes in advance,
PS: I am using very few plugins and do not think any are causing the issue.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is delaying its $451 million Sentinel project by four months to May 2012—but whether the latest postponement is significant depends on who is doing the assessment.
Chad Fulgham, the FBI's chief information officer, calls it a "modest" schedule change, while the Justice Department's Office of Inspector General argues that the new timetable amounts to a substantial postponement.
The dispute is laid out in the latest report from Acting Inspector General Cynthia Schnedar. The reason for the most recent pushback of the deadline is that the FBI uncovered performance deficiencies in the system in recent testing. Agency officials believe the problems are a result of insufficient hardware capacity.
Related stories:
FBI Sentinel a test for agile development
When IGs attack, what is an agency leader to do?
"FBI determined that it will have to purchase new hardware before Sentinel can operate properly when it ultimately is deployed to all Sentinel users," the Dec. 23 Office of Inspector General report said. "At the time of this report, the FBI was still determining the cost of the new hardware and the cost associated with the additional delay to Sentinel's development and deployment."
The hardware capacity issue is the latest setback for the longstanding IT development program. Sentinel was initiated in 2006 as a four-phase program with an estimated total cost of $425 million and completion by December 2009.
The project was restructured to a $451 million baseline with a June 2010 completion date after the prime contractor, Lockheed Martin Corp., completed the first phase. At the completion of the second phase, the inspector general's office expressed concerns about program delays, budget and failure to deliver what was intended. The FBI issued a stop-work order in July 2010 and announced plans to directly manage Sentinel and to complete the remaining two phases using agile methodology.
As a result of those plans, the number of Lockheed Martin personnel working on Sentinel has been reduced to 10, from about 135, the audit said.
The FBI, when it shifted to agile development, initially had expected to complete Sentinel by September 2011, later pushing the deadline again to January 2012. In the most recent assessment, the FBI projected a completion date of May 2012.
While the federal auditors said there were still uncertainties on whether it will finish on time, they noted positive changes, saying that the FBI's transition to agile development "has reduced the risk that Sentinel will either exceed its budget or fail to deliver the expected functionality by reducing the rate at which the FBI is spending money on Sentinel and by instituting a more direct approach to the FBI's monitoring of the development of Sentinel."
Fulgham, in an appendix to the report, wrote that as of Dec. 6 the FBI has completed development of 88 percent of the functionality of Sentinel's current phase. In light of that, and of the other improvements, he said the postponement should be considered minor.
"The FBI-wide deployment is now scheduled for May 2012, as described in this report," Fulgham wrote. "This modest extension is due primarily to the need to implement a standard five-year 'refresh' of computer hardware."
However, the inspector general's report did not endorse that view.
"While in its response the FBI indicates that the May 2012 estimated deployment date is a 'modest extension,' it is in fact a 7-month extension, which we believe is significant even if it is necessary to develop the full system and in light of the FBI's previous development delays," the audit report said. The inspector general apparently was adding in a previous delay into the calculation of seven months.
The dispute between Fulgham and the inspector general's office did not extend to the inspector general's four recommendations for improving Sentinel, including advice to perform additional testing and to ensure that agile development meets project life cycle requirements. The FBI agreed with all of the recommendations.

I hope this saves some people from parting with their money even if it is only $20.00. These guys make you think you have won $2,342,000.00. I even received a check this time but it says not a real check,do not cash. Anyway to make this short read the fine print. All they are willing to do for your $20.00 is give you a list of company's having sweepstakes or lotteries or whatever way you can win money. As you know,you can do all this on your own for free. I hope this helps!!!

Optimal Compensation Contracts For Optimistic Managers
Managers with anticipatory emotions have higher current utility if they are optimistic about the future. The authors study an employment contract between an (endogenously) optimistic manager and realistic investors. The manager faces a trade-off between ensuring that the chosen levels of effort reflect accurate news and savoring emotionally beneficial good news. They show that optimism may exacerbate incentive problems. Specifically, investors and manager agree over the optimal news recall when the manager's weight on anticipatory utility is low.

Be honest. Put others first. Do these things because they are the right things to do. And because otherwise, you just might get left behind when the Rapture pulls all the good people to Heaven and leaves everybody else to a Hell on earth where monsters roam freely, fiery sinkholes swallow up sinners and pudgy warlords force men to become their dogs. In 2007 actor/writer/co-director Seth Rogen and writer/co-director Evan Goldberg made a nine-minute short film titled Jay and Seth Versus the Apocalypse for roughly $3,000. The film was never shown, but the 85-second trailer made the rounds. This Is the End is their feature-length adaptation of that comic short. What they've cooked up is snarky, juvenile, self-serving and, when you least expect it, surprisingly sweet without betraying its feisty nature. The movie is stuffed with jokes: for every one that falls flat there's a winner coming a second later. The cast uses their real names and plays exaggerated versions of themselves (sometimes insanely exaggerated, as in the case of mild Michael Cera, hilariously portrayed as a coke-snorting sexual wild man with women hanging off of him like ornaments on a Christmas tree). The device invites the viewer inside the world of L.A. actors, here presented mostly as self-absorbed, neurotic, entitled schmoozers. It's indulgent, allowing the cast to take shots at each other's career missteps while charging people to see it, but a lot of their riffing is funny. The set-up: Jay Baruchel flies in from Canada to visit his best friend Seth Rogen. Baruchel is ready for a relaxed visit filled with dope smoking and video games, but Rogen drags him to a housewarming party at James Franco's new place, a cubist spectacle designed by Franco himself. Baruchel hates the L.A. showbiz scene and especially doesn't want to have to interact with the unctuous Jonah Hill, but ends up in the middle of the star-studded event, feeling left out and abandoned by his friend. Then the Apocalypse starts. Flaming holes open up in the earth, demons strike, civilization crumbles. The good folks are raptured away, leaving the sinners in the middle of the mess. The party dissolves, leaving Baruchel, Rogen, Franco, Hill and Craig Robinson trapped in the Franco estate. They are visited later by Danny McBride and Emma Watson. The bulk of the comedy follows the five guys as they try to deal with their circumstance. Body function jokes abound, as do numerous personal digs. Allegiances are formed, then broken. There's lots of scrapping over food and drink. Just when the homebound setting starts to wear out its welcome, the men are forced to move outside, leading to a conclusion built on first grade Bible School theology that allows a happy ending for some. Credit the five guys for their solid ensemble work. Points to Michael Cera, Danny McBride, Emma Watson and a host of others for rollicking cameos. And to the A-list actor playing the ... um, dog, a gold star for being such a good sport. This Is the End is tasteless. Enjoy.

I'm afraid that I've made the very rookie mistake of not backing up in awhile, and I've lost everything--EXCEPT that I can still access all of my posts (or at least the HTML script of them) on my mobile app. Does that mean I can somehow still reconnect everything? UGH. Hoping that might be true.
Thanks for any help!

Herwig Vennekens, the UK boss of German sweet manufacturer Haribo, will be bringing lessons from Germany's "Mittelstand" to Britain's leading mid-sized companies at this year's Telegraph Festival of Business.
Mr Vennekens is the latest business leader to sign up for the free event in Manchester on October 19, which will provide practical advice, inspiration and networking opportunities for the owners and directors of companies with revenues between £5m and £250m.
Haribo, a family-owned German company that was founded in 1920, now has 16 factories around the world, a turnover of more than £1bn and its sweets are available in more than 100 countries.
Mr Vennekens will be offering insights into manufacturing, exporting, skills and stewardship – the pillars that have made Germany's mid-sized businesses, the so-called Mittelstand, an economic powerhouse. He will also define what Mittelstand really means to German businesses – and debunk the myths that have emerged around the term.
According to GE Capital, the UK's mid-market firms remained an "employment engine" during the downturn, but if they had grown at the same rate since 2009 as their equivalents in Germany, 240,000 extra jobs would have been created.
GE Capital said these businesses can have a "profound" impact on the UK economy if issues with finding and keeping skilled workers, a willingness to tackle export markets and investment in innovation can be tackled. All of these subjects are on the agenda for the Festival of Business.
The event will also support manufacturing in Britain, and provide advice for companies looking to supply more to large customers.
Mark Barclay, senior vice-president of Airbus in the UK, will be talking about the skills, design and innovation challenges involved in building aircraft and employing 10,000 people in the UK.
There will also be plenty of mid-sized businesses on hand to share their experiences. Dougal Sharp, chief executive of Scottish brewer Innis & Gunn will be providing the exporting tips he's picked up while building a business that makes 80pc of its £8.5m sales overseas.
The company's beer – which matures for 77 days in oak barrels previously used for bourbon – does particularly well in the US, Canada and Scandinavia.
Mr Sharp will explain how good exporting practice can range from the elementary to the sophisticated. He started building the company's name in Canada by simply hiring a car and putting some beer in the boot. His first sales came from "stopping in liquor stores and saying, do you want to take some of this?".
Owners wary of taking on stock that won't shift were won over by the fact that Sharp had made the journey from Scotland to show them his product.
By contrast, in the US, one of the company's biggest markets, Sharp has spent £1m establishing a separate business to act as importer and marketer for the beer. Innis & Gunn imports to itself, then
sells on to distributors, neatly sidestepping the risk of a cash-flow crisis. "Typically an importer pays
you in 120 days. Distributors pay you in 30. If you've got any serious desire to build a big business in the US, you don't want your cash tied up for four months."
For those more interested in emerging markets, Mamas & Papas, the family-owned nursery products retailer that was founded in Huddersfield in 1981, will be talking about its plan to have stores in 60 countries within five years, and its experiences in countries from Russia to Lebanon.
Google will also be providing expert clinics on the use of insights data and export tools to support business expansion.
Other speakers include leading global economist Jim O'Neill, chairman of Goldman Sachs Asset Management – the man who coined the term "BRIC countries" – while Facebook's UK policy director, Simon Milner, along with the Government's digital adviser, Martha Lane Fox, will be on hand to help companies use online effectively.
The Business Growth Fund (BGF), which has invested around £65m in mid-market firms, will be providing finance experts to offer advice on raising the capital needed to grow in a tough lending environment, as will John Jenkins, chief executive of GE Capital UK.
Rob Asplin, a director at private equity firm Better Capital, will be part of an expert panel giving practical tips on turnarounds, while Dan Hynes, head of global resourcing at Skype, will be explaining how growing businesses can avoid recruitment headaches.
The event is part of a broader focus on the untapped potential of mid-sized businesses,
which has also been noted by the Government, following George Osborne's attendance at last year's Festival of Business, and by the CBI.
Research by Experian for the BGF shows that, of the more than 25,000 companies with revenue of between £2.5m and £100m, only 16pc were classed as "high growth" – or growing by more than 10pc a year for the past three years.
"If we could increase those 4,000 to 5,000 high-growth companies to 10,000, it would be a very good proxy for the health of the UK economy overall. For companies of this size, there is the opportunity, even in difficult times with challenging conditions, to be able to accelerate growth," Stephen Welton, chief executive of the BGF, told The Sunday Telegraph last month.
John Cridland, the director general of the CBI, has said that "we've all overlooked mid-sized businesses – business groups, finance providers and government.
"Mid-sized businesses have capability and sophistication, but not access."
The Festival of Business can provide that access. Secure your place at the event, due to take place in Manchester on October 19, by visiting telegraph.co.uk/festivalofbusiness
