Live Blog: Grammy Awards 2012
The Grammy Awards are taking place tonight in Los Angeles and Speakeasy is live blogging the show.
This evening's broadcast features performances by Adele, Bruce Springsteen, Coldplay with Rihanna, the Civil Wars, Chris Brown and Katy Perry as well as a tribute to the late Whitney Houston from Jennifer Hudson.
You can join in the conversation by posting your thoughts in the comments.
Christopher John Farley is the editorial director of the Wall Street Journal blogs. Follow him on Twitter at @cjfarley
Here we go!
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band kick things off with their new single 'We Take Care Of Our Own."
At Staples Center, producer Ken Ehrlich is warming up the crowd, He just introduced the Beach Boys, to warm applause, and promised an opening number " you don't want to miss."
I'm sure it plays well on TV, but live it's a little odd to see Springsteen confined to a relatively tiny stage off to one side of the main stage at Staples. How's the man supposed to run around like a maniac?
The host comes out: LL Cool J.
LL Cool J: "We've had a death in our family." He asks to start the show off with with a prayer for our "fallen sister" Whitney Houston.
We see a vintage video of Whitney Houston singing "I Will Always Love You."
LL Cool J is preaching!
Bruno Mars comes out to perform.
With the opening prayer, the collegial shout-outs, and his easy confidence, LL Cool J has become the Billy Crystal of the Grammys.
He's singing "Runaway Baby."
That's a lot of gold and high kicking from Bruno Mars.
Readers, what do you think of the performances so far? Bruce? Bruno? Or are you just waiting for Jennifer Hudson and Adele?
Alicia Keys and Bonnie Raitt present the first televised award of the night, and sing an Etta James song, "A Sunday Kind of Love."
Best Pop Solo Performance goes to Adele and "Someone Like You." The train has left the station.
Adele thanks her songwriting partner–and her doctors.
Chris Brown comes out.
He's singing "Turn Up the Music."
This is Brown's first return to the Grammy stage since he served probation for assaulting his former girlfriend, pop star Rihanna–who is also in the building tonight.
"The beauty is inside you/ Don't let them bring you down," Brown sings. This is good advice for anyone who is dating an emotionally or physically abusive person.
Brown finishes up and gets a warm ovation from the crowd.
I wonder how many in the audience started crying when Adele's "Someone Like You" started playing.
I thought Brown's performances was underwhelming. It had been billed as a showstopper. He didn't do anything that will have people tweeting. Readers, what do you think?
If my Twitter timeline is any indicator, for many people no amount of skillful singing and dancing will redeem Chris Brown.
Okay, maybe people are tweeting.
Odd couple: Fergie and Marc Anthony come out to present an award for best rap performance.
And the winner for best rap performance goes to: "Otis" from Jay-Z and Kanye West.
Of course neither of them is there. Probably because their album didn't get an album of the year nod.
Kanye West simultaneously wins and loses Best Rap Performance. (He had two nominations)
Jason Aldean and Kelly Clarkson sing "Don't You Wanna Stay?"
Is that a rhinestone mic Kelly Clarkson sang with? Diva move.
Jack Black introduces Foo Fighters.
The Foo Fighters sing 'Walk." This could be my favorite song on "Wasting Light." It makes me think about when alternative rock was young.
During commercial break they're showing the Beyoncé-Prince duet from a few years back, which seems a little cruel immediately after Jason Aldean and Kelly Clarkson's perfectly good but not instant-classic duet on "Don't You Wanna Stay."
How long will they make us wait for Adele's performance?
I'm looking forward to Rihanna and Coldplay. I'm actually looking forward to Rihanna and anyone.
I do appreciate the performances to awards ratio.
The little girls in that Target commercial for Adele's album can sing!
On another note, I may pay a visit to Target to get their version of Adele's "21," which has extra tracks.
With Foo Fighters playing, seems only right they should've brought in Pearl Jam too. I can't see the Foo Fighters outside a high school haze.
Nicki Minaj was rocking an interesting outfit.
Rihanna, bathed in red light, takes the stage to sing her song "We Found Love" and get a cardio workout.
If there was a Grammy for work ethic, I'd bet on Rihanna. She released six albums in as many years. And when her "Talk That Talk" album came out in November, she was still on tour in support of her previous album.
Coldplay comes out to sing their duet with her, "Princess of China." My kids like this song but my daughter doesn't understand why the Princess is from China if Coldplay is from Britain and Rihanna is from the Caribbean. My son also asked some questions about some Bob Dylan lyrics I can't explain either.
Now Coldplay is singing "Paradise." My daughter saw the video for this song which features the band in weird elephant costumes. I couldn't explain this one either.
Chipotle scores with a version of Coldplay's "The Scientist" by Willie Nelson! The ad was better than some of the Grammy performances so far.
Victor Cruz of the champion New York Giants does his salsa dance before presenting best rock performance. The winner is "Walk" by Foo Fighters.
Dave Grohl says the band made the album in the garage with a tape machine. He says it shows the "human element" is the most important thing in music. He's making sense and sounding eloquent and real-so of course the music cuts him off and Ryan Seacrest comes out.
Dave Grohl is wearing a Slayer T-shirt. How awesome is that? Foo Fighters was the only real Rock group in that category anyway.
Maroon 5 come out to pay tribute to the Beach Boys.
Dave Grohl's heartfelt message about the simple essence of making music drowned out by an LMFAO segue.
Foster the People come out to sing The Beach Boys' classic "Wouldn't It Be Nice."
The surviving Beach Boys come out and perform "Good Vibrations."
Stevie Wonder comes out, and send a message to Whitney "up in heaven."
Chris Brown win a Grammy for best R&B album for 'F*A*M*E"
The Civil Wars come out and perform "Barton Hollow," the title track to their album. They introduce Taylor Swift, whom they collaborated with for a song for "The Hunger Games." She sings "Mean." You can read more about their connection here.
Taylor Swift wears a banjo the way Jimmy Page wears a Les Paul. Not sure if that's a good thing.
I was hoping Taylor Swift and The Civil Wars would sing their "Hunger Games" song.
On Twitter, Sandra Bernhard referred to Taylor Swift's look as Dust Bowl chic. Designer Prabal Gurung tweeted "little house on the prairie?"
Maybe it's because I'm sitting next to a bunch of folks visiting from Kansas City, but Taylor Swift's "Mean" seemed to electrify Staples Center. And you could practically see her looking for Kanye West in the audience as she sang the lines about people criticizing her singing abilities. (For the record, Kanye wasn't in the house to witness the retort.)
The Grammy for Song of the Year goes to Adele and Paul Epworth for "Rolling in the Deep." The Adele train keeps rolling.
Katy Perry takes the stage and sings "E.T."
The sound gives out–but it appears to be part of the act. She breaks into "Part of Me."
So hair crimping is back?
Not certain what kind of look the blue-haired Perry is going for. Cyndi Lauper meets Power Rangers?
Katy Perry continues the revenge-by-song theme, with "Part of Me," an anthem that could easily be addressed to soon-to-be-ex-husband Russell Brand. "This is the part of me that you're never, ever gonna take away from me," she sang.
Best Country Album goes to Lady Antebellum for "Own the Night."
Sorry, Taylor Swift's "Speak Now" was a better, more varied album. Readers, any thoughts on the matter?
Does anybody really want to have to follow Adele on this show?
I confuse Katy Perry with The Band Perry with Perry Ellis Top Siders. This is why names matter.
Gwyneth Paltrow introduces Adele, who is making her return to the stage after vocal cord surgery.
Adele starts off with "Rolling in the Deep."
I can't stop thinking of the day Adele performed "Rolling in the Deep" at the Wall Street Journal.
I also can't stop thinking of her performance of "Someone Like You" at the WSJ Cafe.
Adele got a long, loud ovation for her performance from the Grammy crowd.
In a Speakeasy post from last year, Adele's healer, Dr. Steven Zeitels, predicted that innovations in biomaterials will allow aging vocalists to forever sing like they're 20. Promising (and kinda creepy) science.
Readers, what did you think of Adele's performance?
Adele delivered. Stirring.
Grammy's interesting new format: the multi-act tribute to a still-living, iconic act—followed by said act taking the stage to show the whipper snappers how it's done. Both the Beach Boys and Glen Campbell got the same treatment tonight.
Tony Bennett joins Carrie Underwood on stage for a duet of "It Had to Be You."
Here the song Bennett sang when he stopped by the Wall Street Journal recently.
And the Grammy for Best New Artist goes to Bon Iver.
Sort of an upset over Nicki Minaj who was everywhere this year. But Bon Iver is a critic's darling.
Justin Vernon takes the stage and says he's a little uncomfortable accepting the award. But he takes it anyway.
Did Bon Iver deserve the Best New Artist Grammy over Nicki Minaj? Readers, what do you think?
All the people who said "who?" when Arcade Fire won Best Album last year just scratched their head again when Justin Vernon, aka Bon Iver, took the stage as this year's Best New Artist winner.
Jennifer Hudson pays tribute to Whitney Houston with a performance of her hit "I Will Always Love You."
Hudson's take on the song was emotional and tasteful. She kept it under the top.
Readers, what did you think of Hudson's take on "I Will Always Love You"? Leave your thoughts in the comments.
LL Cool J and Questlove introduce dance music segment with a shout-out to recently deceased Don Cornelius. Still, he should have been in the memorial slideshow.
Shoehorning electronic dance music into the Grammys. As if to highlight the awkward fit, the performance by David Guetta, Deadmaus and other electronic stars is taking place outside Staples Center.
Chris Brown dressed like DMC why?
Why are Foo Fighters also relegated to the tents outside Staples Center?
Nicki Minaj comes out, introduced by Drake. Her performance begins with a confession.
Minaj's performance features taped scenes involving an exorcism. She's melding music and melodrama. I guess this is her version of "Trapped in the Closet."
Well, Nicki Minaj isn't boring. She seems to be catering to Lady GaGa's monsters.
Not certain what that was about but I admire Minaj for putting it out there.
And the Record of the Year goes to Adele and "Rolling in the Deep."
"Thank you so much–this is ridiculous!" Adele says.
Readers, any thoughts on what that Nicki Minaj performance was about? Leave your ideas in the comments.
Diana Ross presents the award for Album of the Year. And the Grammy goes to Adele for "21." Of course.
Adele gets real in her acceptance speech, clearing a bit of "snot" from her nose.
Paul McCartney hits the stage to sing Beatles classics. Good way to end the night.
Surprised that f-bomb prone Adele didn't require any bleeps in her Best Album acceptance speech; not surprised that she mentioned "snot."
McCartney and his bandmates perform "Golden Slumbers," "Carry That Weight" and "The End," with its magnificent closing thought "And in the end/The love you take/Is equal to the love you make."
Readers, what did you think of the show? Which performances were the best? Leave your thoughts in the comments.

Every time i enter a game, I get this message saying Connection failure, Lost connection to the game server returning to lobby. It's so annoying because it happens on EVERY map i try to play. It usually does this when the map is loading, it then freezes, the display that shows all of the players names on squad 1 and 2 are refreshing as well, and finally i get a black background with a message that says Connection failure, Lost connection to the game server returning to lobby. Is there something wrong with my internet or something? I restarted my internet and even my computer and i still get the same message. Do i need to patch my game or something? Please help..
The first thing I would do is disable any firewall software and if using a router, hook up your computer directly to the modem and try again. If you're still getting the error, at least you know it's not a port issue.
First, where are you connecting from? Expect to be disconnected if you aren't in North America and your provider doesn't give you realistic ping/latency value.
Second, as sort of suggested, look at your firewall software and ensure that you have it in gaming mode, if it offers one. If that doesn't work, then try shutting it off the firewall software, as long as you are behind a NAT-ing router. If it still doesn't work, then check your router port security settings and ensure that you have the appropriate game ports open. Only as a last resort, would I recommend that you connect your PC directly to the Net without some type of filtering device or software. The risk is too great just to play a game.
Would love to tell you specifics on how to check your firewall software or network hardware mode and port settings, but with no info provided, I can only tell you to Google for the same.
Good luck!
Don't know if you are still in the beta, but I'm experiencing the same problem. If you figured out how to solve it could you tell me! It would help alot!

My husband is have a stress test run. He will not return to work for another 5 days. But William did not want to hear this. All he was interested was in telling me that I do not get extentions, I do not get deferments, and I do not get any breaks. All I get is to pay them their $357.81 in a timely manor. I asked to speak with his supervisor he told me he was "like the manager and there was no one else that I could talk to about this matter."

Parallel Edge Projection and Pruning (PEPP) Based Sequence Graph Protrude Approach for Closed Itemset Mining
kalli Srinivasa Nageswara Prasad
Research Scholar in Computer Science Sri Venkateswara University, Tirupati Andhra Pradesh , India. .
Prof. S. Ramakrishna
Department of Computer Science Sri Venkateswara University, Tirupati Andhra Pradesh , India. .
Abstract: Past observations have shown that a frequent item set mining algorithm are supposed to mine the closed ones as the end gives a compact and a complete progress set and better efficiency. Anyhow, the latest closed item set mining algorithms works with candidate maintenance combined with test paradigm which is expensive in runtime as well as space usage when support threshold is less or the item sets gets long. Here, we show, PEPP, which is a capable algorithm used for mining closed sequences without candidate. It implements a novel sequence closure checking format that based on Sequence Graph protruding by an approach labeled "Parallel Edge projection and pruning" in short can refer as PEPP. A complete observation having sparse and dense real-life data sets proved that PEPP performs greater compared to older algorithms as it takes low memory and is more faster than any algorithms those cited in literature frequently. Key words – Data Mining; Graph Based Mining; Frequent itemset; Closed itemset; Pattern Mining; candidate; Itemset Mining; Sequential Itemset Mining.
there are less methods for mining closed sequential item sets. This is because of intensity of the problem and CloSpan is the only variety of algorithm [17], similar to the frequent closed item set mining algorithms, it follows a candidate maintenanceand-test paradigm, as it maintains a set of readily mined closed sequence candidates used to prune search space and verify whether a recently found frequent sequence is to be closed or not. Unluckily, a closed item set mining algorithm under this paradigm has bad scalability in the number of frequent closed item sets as many frequent closed item sets (or just candidates) consume memory and leading to high search space for the closure checking of recent item sets, which happens when the support threshold is less or the item sets gets long. Finding a way to mine frequent closed sequences without the help of candidate maintenance seems to be difficult. Here, we show a solution leading to an algorithm, PEPP, which can mine efficiently all the sets of frequent closed sequences through a sequence graph protruding approach. In PEPP, we need not eye down on any historical frequent closed sequence for a new pattern's closure checking, leading to the proposal of Sequence graph edge pruning technique and other kinds of optimization techniques. The observations display the performance of the PEPP to find closed frequent itemsets using Sequence Graph. The comparative study claims some interesting performance improvements over BIDE and other frequently cited algorithms. In section II, most frequently cited work and their limits explained. In section III, the Dataset adoption and formulation explained. In section IV, introduction to PEPP and its utilization
Sequential item set mining, is an important task, having many applications with market, customer and web log analysis, item set discovery in protein sequences. Capable mining techniques are being observed extensively, including the general sequential item set mining [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6], constraint-based sequential item set mining [7, 8, 9], frequent episode mining [10], cyclic association rule mining [11], temporal relation mining [12], partial periodic pattern mining [13], and long sequential item set mining [14]. Recently it's quite convincing that for mining frequent item sets, one should mine all the closed ones as the end leads to compact and complete result set having high efficiency [15, 16, 17, 18], unlike mining frequent item sets,

for Sequence Graph protruding explained. In section V, the algorithms used in PEPP described. In section V1, results gained from a comparative study briefed and followed by conclusion of the study. II. RELATED WORK
The sequential item set mining problem was initiated by Agrawal and Srikant , and the same developed a filtered algorithm, GSP [2], basing on the Apriori property [19]. Since then, lots of sequential item set mining algorithms are being developed for efficiency. Some are, SPADE [4], PrefixSpan [5], and SPAM [6]. SPADE is on principle of vertical id-list format and it uses a lattice-theoretic method to decompose the search space into many tiny spaces, on the other hand PrefixSpan implements a horizontal format dataset representation and mines the sequential item sets with the pattern-growth paradigm: grow a prefix item set to attain longer sequential item sets on building and scanning its database. The SPADE and the PrefixSPan highly perform GSP. SPAM is a recent algorithm used for mining lengthy sequential item sets and implements a vertical bitmap representation. Its observations reveal, SPAM is better efficient in mining long item sets compared to SPADE and PrefixSpan but, it still takes more space than SPADE and PrefixSpan. Since the frequent closed item set mining [15], many capable frequent closed item set mining algorithms are introduced, like A-Close [15], CLOSET [20], CHARM [16], and CLOSET+ [18]. Many such algorithms are to maintain the ready mined frequent closed item sets to attain item set closure checking. To decrease the memory usage and search space for item set closure checking, two algorithms, TFP [21] and CLOSET+2, implement a compact 2-level hash indexed resulttree structure to keep the readily mined frequent closed item set candidates. Some pruning methods and item set closure verifying methods, initiated the can be extended for optimizing the mining of closed sequential item sets also. CloSpan is a new algorithm used for mining frequent closed sequences [17]. It goes by the candidate maintenance-and-test method: initially create a set of closed sequence candidates stored in a hash indexed result-tree structure and do post-pruning on it. It requires some pruning techniques such as Common Prefix and Backward Sub-Item set pruning to prune the search space as CloSpan requires maintaining the set of closed sequence candidates, it consumes much memory leading to heavy search space for item set closure checking when there are more frequent closed sequences. Because of which, it does not scale well the number of frequent closed sequences. BIDE [26] is
another closed pattern mining algorithm and ranked high in performance when compared to other algorithms discussed. Bide projects the sequences after projection it prunes the patterns that are subsets of current patterns if and only if subset and superset contains same support required. But this model is opting to projection and pruning in sequential manner. This sequential approach sometimes turns to expensive when sequence length is considerably high. In our earlier literature[27] we discussed some other interesting works published in recent literature. Here, we bring Sequence Graph protruding that based on edge projection and pruning, an asymmetric parallel algorithm for finding the set of frequent closed sequences. The giving of this paper is: (A) an improved sequence graph based idea is generated for mining closed sequences without candidate maintenance, termed as Parallel Edge Projection and pruning (PEPP) based Sequence Graph Protruding for closed itemset mining. The Edge Projection is a forward approach grows till edge with required support is possible during that time the edges will be pruned. During this pruning process vertices of the edge that differs in support with next edge projected will be considered as closed itemset, also the sequence of vertices that connected by edges with similar support and no projection possible also be considered as closed itemset (B) in the Edge Projection and pruning based Sequence Graph Protruding for closed itemset mining, we create a algorithms for Forward edge projection and back edge pruning(C) the performance clearly signifies that proposed model has a very high capacity: it can be faster than an order of magnitude of CloSpan but uses order(s) of magnitude less memory in several cases. It has a good scalability to the database size. When compared to BIDE the model is proven as equivalent and efficient in an incremental way that proportional to increment in pattern length and data density. III. DATASET ADOPTION AND FORMULATION
Item Sets I: A set of diverse elements by which the sequences generate.
I = U ik
k =1
Note: 'I' is set of diverse elements
Sequence set 'S': A set of sequences, where each sequence contains elements each element 'e' belongs to 'I' and true for a function p(e). Sequence set can formulate as
http://sites.google.com/site/ijcsis/ ISSN 1947-5500
(IJCSIS) International Journal of Computer Science and Information Security, Vol. 9, No. 9, September 2011
s = U < ei | ( p (ei ), ei ∈ I ) >
i =1
Qualified support 'qs': The resultant coefficient of total support divides by size of sequence database adopt as qualified support 'qs'. Qualified support can be found by using following formulation.
Represents a sequence's' of items those belongs to set of distinct items 'I'. 'm': total ordered items. P(ei): a transaction, where ei usage is true for that transaction.
f qs ( st ) =
fts ( st ) | DBS |
S = U sj
j =1
Sub-sequence and Super-sequence: A sequence is sub sequence for its next projected sequence if both sequences having same total support. Super-sequence: A sequence is a super sequence for a sequence from which that projected, if both having same total support. Sub-sequence and super-sequence can be formulated as If f ts ( st ) ≥ rs where 'rs' is required support threshold given by user
S: represents set of sequences 't': represents total number of sequences and its value is volatile sj: is a sequence that belongs to S Subsequence: a sequence s p of sequence set 'S' is considered of Sequence Set 'S' if all items in sequence Sp is belongs to sq as an ordered list. This can be formulated as as subsequence of another sequence sq
<: s
for any p value
where f ts ( st ) ≅ f ts ( s p )
IV. If
(U s pi ∈ sq ) ⇒ ( s p ⊆ sq )
i =1
Preprocess: As a first stage of the proposal we perform dataset preprocessing and itemsets Database initialization. We find itemsets with single element, in parallel prunes itemsets with single element those contains total support less than required support. Forward Edge Projection: In this phase, we select all itemsets from given itemset database as input in parallel. Then we start projecting edges from each selected itemset to all possible elements. The first iteration includes the pruning process in parallel, from second iteration onwards this pruning is not required, which we claimed as an efficient process compared to other similar techniques like BIDE. In first iteration, we project an itemset s p that spawned from selected itemset
U s pi
i =1
<:U s
m j =1
s p ∈ S and sq ∈ S
Total Support 'ts' : occurrence count of a sequence as an ordered list in all sequences in sequence set 'S' can adopt as total support 'ts' of that sequence. Total support 'ts' of a sequence can determine by following formulation.
f ts ( st ) =| st <: s p ( for each p = 1.. | DBS |) |
DBS Is set of sequences
fts ( st ) : Represents the total support 'ts' of sequence st is the
number of super sequences of st
si from DBS and an element
ei considered from 'I'. If the f ts ( s p ) is greater or equal to rs ,

then an edge will be defined between si and ei . If
Figure 1: Generate initial

f ts ( si ) ≅ f ts ( s p ) then we prune si from DBS . This pruning
process required and limited to first iteration only. From second iteration onwards project the itemset S p that spawned from S p ' to each element ei of 'I'. An edge can be defined between S p ' and ei if f ts ( s p ) is greater or equal to rs . In this description S p ' is a projected itemset in previous iteration and eligible as a sequence. Then apply the fallowing validation to find closed sequence. If any of f ts ( s p ' ) ≅ f ts ( s p ) that edge will be pruned and all disjoint graphs except
s p will be considered as closed

sequence and moves it into DBS and remove all disjoint graphs from memory. If f ts ( s p ' ) ≅ f ts ( s p ) and there after no projection spawned then s p will be considered as closed sequence and moves it into DBS and remove s p ' and s p from memory. The above process continues till the elements available in memory those are connected through direct or transitive edges and projecting itemsets i.e., till graph become empty.
This section describes algorithms for initializing sequence database with single elements sequences, spawning itemset projections and pruning edges from Sequence Graph SG.

Comparative Study
This segment focuses mainly on providing evidence on asserting the claimed assumptions that 1) The PEPP is similar to BIDE which is actually a sealed series mining algorithm that is competent enough to momentously surpass results when evaluated against other algorithms such as CloSpan and spade. 2) Utilization of memory and momentum is rapid when compared to the CloSpan algorithm which is again analogous to BIDE. 3) There is the involvement of an enhanced occurrence and a probability reduction in the memory exploitation rate with the aid of the trait equivalent prognosis and also rim snipping of the PEPP. This is on the basis of the surveillance done which concludes that PEPP's implementation is far more noteworthy and important in contrast with the likes of BIDE, to be precise. JAVA 1.6_ 20th build was employed for accomplishment of the PEPP and BIDE algorithms. A workstation equipped with core2duo processor, 2GB RAM and Windows XP installation was made use of for investigation of the algorithms. The parallel replica was deployed to attain the thread concept in JAVA. Dataset Characteristics: Pi is supposedly found to be a very opaque dataset, which assists in excavating enormous quantity of recurring clogged series with a profitably high threshold somewhere close to 90%. It also has a distinct element of being enclosed with 190 protein series and 21 divergent objects. Reviewing of serviceable legacy's consistency has been made use of by this dataset. Fig. 5 portrays an image depicting dataset series extent status. In assessment with all the other regularly quoted forms like spade, prefixspan and CloSpan, BIDE has made its mark as a most preferable, superior and sealed example of mining copy, taking in view the detailed study of the factors mainly, memory consumption and runtime, judging with PEPP.

In contrast to PEPP and BIDE, a very intense dataset Pi is used which has petite recurrent closed series whose end to end distance is less than 10, even in the instance of high support amounting to around 90%. The diagrammatic representation displayed in Fig.3 explains that the above mentioned two algorithms execute in a similar fashion in case of support being 90% and above. But in situations when the support case is 88% and less, then the act of PEPP surpasses BIDE's routine. The disparity in memory exploitation of PEPP and BIDE can be clearly observed because of the consumption level of PEPP being low than that of BIDE. VII. CONCLUSION
research studies that limitations are crucial for a number of chronological outlined mining algorithms. Future studies include proposing of claiming a deduction advance on perking up the rule coherency on predictable itemsets. REFERENCES

It has been scientifically and experimentally proved that clogged prototype mining propels dense product set and considerably enhanced competency as compared to recurrent prototype of mining even though both these types project similar animated power. The detailed study has verified that the case usually holds true when the count of recurrent moulds is considerably large and is the same with the recurrent bordered models as well. However, there is the downbeat in which the earlier formed clogged mining algorithms depend on chronological set of recurrent mining outlines. It is used to verify whether an innovative recurrent outline is blocked or else if it can nullify few previously mined blocked patterns. This leads to a situation where the memory utilization is considerably high but also leads to inadequacy of increasing seek out space for outline closure inspection. This paper anticipates an unusual algorithm for withdrawing recurring closed series with the help of Sequence Graph. It performs the following functions: It shuns the blight of contender's maintenance and test exemplar, supervises memory space expertly and ensures recurrent closure of clogging in a well-organized manner and at the same instant guzzling less amount of memory plot in comparison with the earlier developed mining algorithms. There is no necessity of preserving the already defined set of blocked recurrences, hence it very well balances the range of the count of frequent clogged models. A Sequence graph is embraced by PEPP and has the capability of harvesting the recurrent clogged pattern in an online approach. The efficacy of dataset drafts can be showcased by a wide-spread range of experimentation on a number of authentic datasets amassing varied allocation attributes. PEPP is rich in terms of velocity and memory spacing in comparison with the BIDE and CloSpan algorithms. ON the basis of the amount of progressions, linear scalability is provided. It has been proven and verified by many scientific

I had a 3/8" ratchet break (strip the ratchet mechanism). I took in the ratchet to be replaced. The sales person brought out a "ratchet repair kit". I explained that I wanted a "new" replacement tool and that the kit wouldn't work since the ratchet handle was stripped.
The sales person then brings me a new ratchet. I noticed that inside the plastic package, there were dings and dents on the ratchet handle. I opened the package to discover that the "NEW" ratchet was actually a used tool that was reconditioned.
Well, later I was employed in the automotive department of the same Sears store and noticed this with several returned tools that were exchanged by customers. It seemed that many different hand tools were reconditioned and packaged on the shelves as "New" tools.
This is not uncommon, all the years I have been a mechanic, I have traveled to many Sears stores thru out several states. So...buyer beware and carefully examine before you buy. That new tool may not be so new! I now shop for my expensive tools somewhere else...after looking them over carefully.

Track: Comin' at ya, my girl | Artist: Mitsuharu Fukuyama | Album: Yakuza 5 - Original Soundtrack Vol. 2
You Really Need To Play The Yakuza Games
The Yakuza series is one of the best in video games. Sad thing is, given their delayed localisation work and reputation for being a little...different, they're also largely ignored by the wider gaming public. I'd love it if that could change.
Yakuza 5 arrives on PSN for the PS3 on Tuesday, December 8. The release date, confirmed during the PlayStation Experience keynote today, also comes with news of Yakuza 0 eventually coming to Western PS4 consoles.
Yakuza 5 is coming to the West (praise be the Localisation Gods) for the PS3, and when it does, all of Japan's DLC for the game is getting thrown in as well.
Holy Crap, Yakuza 5 Will Be Out In The West Next Year
Bombshell! Yakuza 5, which many of us thought would never actually make it to Western shores, will come to North America for PS3 next year, Sony just announced.
Yakuza 5 was released in Japan in December 2012. It is yet to see a release in the West. Sega, we are still waiting. Hurry up.
Yakuza 5 was first released in Japan in December 2012. It is now January 2014 and there's still no word on a Western release. Fix this, Sega!

The Yakuza games are some of the very best on the PS3, so Sega's silence on a possible localisation of Yakuza 5 is killing me.
Sega, Where The Hell Is Yakuza 5?
I know it has flaws. Some of them completely alienating for most people. But damn it, I don't care. The Yakuza series is just about my favourite thing on the PS3.

Today I Played Taiko no Tatsujin With Virtual Gangsters
The Yakuza series of games have always been serious, testosterone-filled stories about hard men kicking each other's asses, broken up sporadically by mini-games, activities, and general fooling around. The latest game, Yakuza 5, is no different. As previously reported, Namco Bandai's Taiko no Tatsujin appears as a…

Colorectal Cancer Health Center
Class May Drive Colon Cancer Race Gap
April 23, 2007 -- Colon cancer survival rates are worse for blacks than whites, and that may largely be due to social and economic factors, according to a new research review.
The reviewers, who work in Houston at the University of Texas Health Science Center, included Xianglin Du, MD, PhD.
They note that colon cancer killed 27 per 100,000 blacks compared with 19 per 100,000 whites from 2000-2003 in the U.S. During the same period, the five-year colon cancer survival rate was almost 55% for blacks, compared with 65% for whites.
Many factors may affect colon cancer survival rates, including genetics, access to medical care, exposure to cancer-causing substances, and lifestyle habits.
Du's team took a closer look at the black-white race gap in colon cancer survival to gauge the influence of social and economic (socioeconomic) factors.
The reviewers pooled data from 10 U.S. studies on colon cancer, race, and socioeconomic factors.
Each study was designed differently. Together, the studies included more than 96,400 people who were diagnosed with colon cancer from 1977-1997 who were followed for up to 17 years.
Adjusting for socioeconomic factors and for colon cancer treatment erased much of the black-white race gap in colon cancer survival rates.
The reviewers conclude that closing the social and economic gaps may narrow the colon cancer survival race gap.
"Because treatment and socioeconomic factors are modifiable, efforts to eliminate racial disparities in health care and to minimize disparities in socioeconomic status have the potential to reduce racial inequalities in colon cancer survival," write Du and colleagues.
Their report appears in the June 1, 2007 edition of Cancer.

Brush your teeth with this for immediate plaque removal
Posted by Reviewer2489065 on May 09, 2010
Warning, first. Use 2 drops in a half a dixie cup of water for the first two or three brushings. Very strong, peppery flavor. Rinse with a mouthful first, then dip your brush in the water. Brush, and don't forget to brush your tongue. Swish and swallow the rest of the oil/water in the cup. After a few times, you can move up to 4 drops per half dixie cup of water. You're teeth will feel so clean and you will be satisfied knowing that you have not consumed any chemicals to leech into your body.
Oregano Oil

I place drops in a capsule and swallow it before breakfast. It clears up my "fibro fog" dramatically. It is the only thing I've found that helps the mental fog that comes with fibromyalgia.
Strong concentration, strong results.

I used this product to treat nail fungus after I was prescribed with Penlac. I did not want to use it after reading the side effecs and without given a chance to the oregano oil. There are no more fungus on my nails less than six months later, They actually look like when I was 15.
The stuff really works
Posted by Reviewer1656531 on Jan 11, 2010
I ordered this and the capsules to keep on hand. Right after purchasing, our large dog came down with an ear infection. I put a few drops in his food 2x's day for a week and also put a few drops in his ear twice (he's not good about that). It knocked it totally out. He smelled like a pizza but it worked. Hubby and I started to come down with flu that was moving thru family at Christmas, started taking the oil of Oregano and vit d3 and it worked wonderfully. I had no down days at all. Hubby (who usually ends up in ICU/compromised lungs) did wonderfully, a very loose cough (OoO thins mucosa) was the worst he got. As a side note, for the first time in over a yr I noticed that after 3 days..my back didn't hurt like usual. I asked him and he said his wasn't either. (we both have bad backs) That's when I recalled reading that OoO was a great anti-inflammatory. Wow, is it. Hubby told me to order more capsules and we take them regularly now because of the great difference it has made in reducing the pain in our spine (and hip in my case). I have not had to take lortabs for several days now which I haven't been able to do in about 8 months. Good stuff!
A great cure-all.
Posted by Reviewer1582777 on Mar 08, 2009
Oregano oil is terrific for stopping cold and flu - I recommend it to everyone. Don't worry about the taste, just mix with a little warm water or juice and knock it back.
Never do without!
Posted by Reviewer2057538 on Mar 09, 2010
Haven't used antibiotics in years because of this herb. When I first feel a cold or flu come on I start with four drops in a small amount of water and then chase with some more water. I do this several times a day when trying to fight off the bug. It is really strong strong tasting stuff but it works! I also swish with it in some water for my gums to keep gingevitis at bay. Organic apple cider vinegar with some honey is also great for sore throat and fighting cold symptoms. I use both together.
I use these drops mostly to deal with age spots
Posted by DAB598 on Oct 10, 2011
The age spots on my hands and my wife's face have become noticeably lighter and smaller, by simply applying this oil daily or twice daily (can't say we've been rigorous about it) -- anyway, it seems to be working!
I prefer the taste of california natural.
Posted by 4622340503885183501 on Apr 16, 2013
The taste was better on the california natural. The reason could well be that i tried the california natural first, the dropper in this brand however seems better though and easier to apply directly on the teeths.
Two thumbs up for Vitality Works

This is the most potent oregano oil I can find.

If you have ever had a yeast infection you know they can be uncomfortable. The vaginal itching, burning, and constant clumpy discharge gets frustrating. Trying to avoid vaginal yeast infections can be done with these great precautions. Let's take a quick look at what you can do.
Chuck out those fragrance pads, tampons, and odor control sprays. These can actually alter your vaginal pH level can result in the overgrowth of yeast. This will definitely lead to a vaginal yeast infection. Whoever said to use Vaseline for extra lubricant needs slapped upside the head. Don't ever do that it can make things way worse.
Stop douching and let your vagina naturally cleanse itself like it was made to do. Wearing cotton underwear is better than silk. Silk and other heavy materials tend to retain moisture and heat. This makes it the perfect breeding ground for infections. So stick to the good ole cotton panties ladies.

Researchers at Colorado State University say clams could become a new tool for tracking the bird flu.
Bird flu not only kills birds but can spread to humans. Researchers at CSU say using clams to test for bird flu would be much cheaper than using man-made filters.
Kate Huyvaeret, a disease biologist at CSU, says bird flu is spread among birds when one infected bird's feces end up in water that other birds use. Huyvaeret says clams filter water and when they are in water that has bird flu, they can accumulate measurable traces of the virus in their tissue.
This summer, Huyvaeret plans to go to northern Vietnam where clams are common in markets, and where there have been outbreaks of bird flu. To test how well clams work as sentinels for bird flu, she will then have to wait for reports of an outbreak.
Huyvaeret wants to learn how long it takes for the clams to pick up measurable traces of bird flu. With that information, clams could make a type of test filter that could be taken to suspect areas, set in the water, and then tested to see if it's an area where bird flu has spread.

Yes, the first word in this poem is purposefully spelled that way... That's for an accent to the word. Isn't it also that the "h" is silent in some ways that it's spelled? "Behr" is the early spelling used to describe the animals name...
Anyhow, this is a bear and a skunk. Nothing scares a bear away more than being startled.

My father in law surprised me with a new band saw (my first and boy do I love it!) this past weekend and the first project I made with/for it was a fence, using materials I had on hand.
It's a fairly simple concept, just some wood clamped to a pivot point, that hooks under the edge of the table to prevent it from moving up. This way I can easily adjust for drift. It works great, took about an hour to make (and a day for the glue to dry).
If you'd like to see more pictures, I have the whole thing on my blog, here.
Thanks for looking!

Some people become somewhat famous for making wine—at least among wine aficionados. Others become famous for drinking too much of it and driving into a farmers market...but selling the wine? No. Sadly, you'll never grace the cover of Time, no matter how good your wine sales techniques.
If you're lucky, and it means something to you, you very well might brush shoulders with some important people, who knows. Just remember what we talked about. It's not about fame, or power. It's about the wine, ya goofball.

Mostly Seattle fans because they act like their team won the most SB's. Also, they only come out when their team wins. From 2006-2011, i don't think i saw one seattle fan. Now, I saw like 3 or 4 of em in the past few weeks.
I also cannot stand steeler fans. I use to respect them, but not no more. Last year in OAK, they invaded that stadium (when they were "winning") And now, since they suck, only a small fraction of the fans were there. One of my good buds is allegedly a huge steeler fan. (he's from cleveland, but he likes: steelers, SFgiants, la lakers, and ohio state football.) He even have a huge tattoo on his arm. However, the steelers were playing in OAK earlier this year on his birthday. I suggested that he should see his team there. He told me, "nah man, i don't want to see them." And then he spent MORE MONEY to a concert of this no named rapper. And then two weeks ago, i guess PIT had won 4 in a row, and this fool had the audacity to post a pic of his steeler tattoo on facebook like he's a fan again.... I hate fans like that.

Three stories of a lonely youth. Jimmy Kruzel's bad luck is that his worst enemies are always his best friends, or is it the other way around, and that sometimes his darkest hours seem to come right after the dawn. In tales more bitter than sweet, Jimmy finds that you can attract more flies with honey than you can with vinegar, but really, who wants to attract flies anyway?

It's been a whirlwind week for Mikey Eyssimont. The Colorado native was just drafted by the Kings last Saturday and now he finds himself in Los Angeles for the team's annual Development Camp. With only one year of college experience under his belt – and expected to play a big role this upcoming season at […]
Dustin Brown met with the media today via a conference call to share his thoughts on no longer being captain of the Los Angeles Kings… and to say he was extremely candid would be more than understatement.
Partial opening comment on no longer being the captain:
"There are a lot of emotions [that come with this]. […]
As July 1st quickly approaches, most of the hockey world is discussing free agency. Simultaneously, we're also just a few days away from the other annual summer tradition, Development Camp. In fact, dozens of the Kings top prospects will be arriving in Los Angeles over the weekend, with on-ice activity expected to begin on Monday […]
We're finally ready to announce the name of which Los Angeles Kings prospect has nabbed the No. 1 spot in our bi-annual rankings of the team's future hopefuls. After working our way through a handful of Honorable … [Read More...]

For Sacramento area people, Elk Grove Best Buy has an Open Box Epson 3010 for $1,434 when I visited on November 19th 2011. I returned one there a few weeks ago so I suspect it's the same one. Mine looked great but was popping up with "auto iris error" occasionally on startup so probably would need a warranty swapout if it's the same one. Anyways thought I would mention it in case anyone is looking for one. There's also a Best Buy coupon on the internet somewhere for a gift card that gives you $130 of additional value to the deal.

I've used this plugin to create several custom post types on my site, which worked very well. Then I went to make the site live which involves switching from a temporary url, an ip address (12.345.678.90/~sample/), to my final domain (http://www.domain.com). I've done this many times and it requires me to switch the to primary urls under "Settings" > "General" (WordPress address (URL), and Site address (URL)). The final step I do is to run a sql query to replace the ip address with the final domain, so that all the URLs on the final site are clean and ready to go.
I did this successfully and the new site is live, everything works on the front-end and back-end of the site. Except the custom post types don't show up in the admin area anymore. The custom post types are still in the database and showing up on the front-end of the site, but GD custom posts and taxonomies tool doesn't see them anymore, and they don't show up on the left navigation.
Any thoughts on what would be tied to a URL switch that would make these custom post types disappear on the back-end?
Thank you!

in a number of Atlanta locations. A quick Web search will yield complaints in a number of
online forums for everything from being booted for walking away from your car
to treating people of color differently than white people.
I discovered this the hard way today. I parked for a meeting
at a lot at 710 Peachtree and paid at the pay station Im a rule follower and
would never think of parking without paying my fair share. When I returned a
few hours later and I was unlocking my car a young man in the parking lot
pointed out that he had just booted my car and that I would have to pay him $75
to have the boot removed. No, I couldnt pay an additional parking fee, even
though I was back to the car only 10 minutes past the expiration time. (The
machine had two choices: 2 hours for $3 and $5 for all day. In the bright
sunlight, I incorrectly read the display to say 3 hours.)
There was no indication on the parking receipt or the signs
at the front of this lot that this would happen. A sign away from the meter
says that unpaid cars will be booted or towed, but not late ones.
In the future, I will not only refuse to park in any EPS lot
but also will not patronize any businesses who hire them.

Some suggestions regarding meters and boots
AUTHOR: Steve - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Saturday, May 21, 2011POSTED: Saturday, May 21, 2011
We paid, and "parked". Fired up the generator. Stretched out the long cord. Put a fresh blade in the sawzall. No more boot. Cut that thing up in little pieces and left it in the lot. The look on the punk's face? Priceless. Drove out laughing.
Suggestions on this are to pay better attention to those meters. Some of them are really hard to see. And, always time yourself to be back with 15 minutes to spare. Check your local laws on towing and booting. Many states require signs to be visible to all parking spots and/or on the meter itself, at the walk in/walk out gates, etc. You may have a valid civil suit.

I bought tsw but I have to be honest I find the game fairly boring, to me the game yet again feels like a generic wow-like game, same boring combat, same boring linear quest grind. I really don't get how it got such steller reviews as it is. Already cancelled my acct and pretty much moved on, due to lack of interest.Sat Jul 14 2012 6:59AM Report
I like the game, having lots of fun with quests But in game chat has been broken for a week now. there is no way to talk to make a channel and talk to people in your multi faction guild because chat doesn't work. tells work but thats only to one player. I'd call broken chat a pretty big problem and as much as i like the game if they don't get it fixed in another week or so i won't be resubbing since as MMO with no chat is just sillySun Jul 22 2012 1:01PM Report

We believe the key to beautiful skin is caring for it with pure, wholesome ingredients. We craft soaps from soothing goats milk, virgin olive oil (and in some formulas emu oil) and pure spring water in our shop. All of the products we recommend are products that we use ourselves. We use goats milk cream and virgin oils in our soaps and lotions because your skin easily absorbs these ingredients and improves nearly instantly.
Every step of our process- from selecting premium ingredients to creating a new fragrance ensures that you receive a product unlike anything available in an average store. Our soaps and lotions add a bit of luxury to your life, with soothing scents and rich moisture. They will make your skin more radiant even if its been damaged by sun, age, eczema or psoriasis. Because we use fresh, natural ingredients, our products offer relief for all types of skin.
Did you know we offer free shipping on all orders of $100.00 or more! Sign-up for our bi-weekly newsletter to receive valuable offers only available to our newsletter subscribers.

How can I publish a list of all comments, on a separate page, ideally, with pagination (e.g 20 comments per page)?
Right now, I'm using a plugin (Get Recent Comments) to display the latest 5 comments. What I want is a page where visitors can scan a longer list of recent comments, instead of extending the list in the sidebar.
I hope this is the right forum for this question, else, please point me to where it is...

The story of five-year-old Ruby Ayoub, wrongly diagnosed as having swine flu, but who was then found to be suffering from meningitis, also touched the nation's heart.
Hospital staff, young children and those over 65 as well as at risk groups were among those protected against the virus this week as the phased roll-out of the vaccination campaign continued.
There is still a lot of confusion about the vaccine and the need for pregnant women to be vaccinated by their GP or from HSE clinics nationwide.
The vaccine is currently the best defence we have against the pandemic -- and that message needs to sound loud and clear.


text: I installed BP-FBConnect on the latest version of Buddypress and WPMU and then followed the directions and entered the API Key and secret key and everything appears to be good. When I try to login with the FB Connect button I get an error page on Facebook that says that my application is "is under construction. Please try again later." What more do I need to do to make the "application" functional? Just to be clear, I'm not building an application, I just want BP-FBConnect to work.
