Betrayer (Foreigner Universe #12), by C. J. Cherryh
Book Review by Edward F. McKeown
Have you read this book?
In my prior review of Deceiver, I commented on how impossible it was to enter the series from that book because of the sheer weight of all that had gone before and how nobody should expect a writer to be able to do that. Then at the beginning of Betrayer, C. J. Cherryh pretty much does so and makes it coherent and cogent with little evident effort. Drat.
Now that said, a summary is not a substitute for knowledge. If I told you War and Peace was essentially, 'Napoleon invades Russia, goes badly' you'd have the essential plot, but so what? Even there you are starting with the information that most people, other than American college students know: Napoleon was French, Russia and France are countries and they fought a war with bright uniforms, tall hats, horses, cannons and a lot of snow. An SF writer has none of that built in and has to do all of that and not bore you. CJ succeeds though I still think a reader who had not read the earlier work will still be at sea, but maybe at least in sight of landfall.
Betrayer plunges us further into the battle to stabilize the Marid province and prevent most of the Atevi world from going up in a civil war that would threaten to destabilize the prospace, pro-human government of the Tabini and his human ally and lead diplomat, Bren Cameron. War among the Atevi is conducted within strict bounds as different groups of the Assassins Guild struggle against each other to carry out or prevent judicially approved Filings of Intent to Kill. The isolated human colony on its island of Mospheira is sitting this one out but in understandable nerves about anything that happens with the planet full of Atevi.
But the Guild itself has been split by the recent coup and counter coup against Tabini and many of the Pretender Murini's Guild fled after Tabini's return, to Marid province finding this nest of internecine family struggles, ripe fruit for the plucking. They insert themselves into existing plots and organize new ones, spreading conflict and unrest and having it blamed on Machigi the existing Marid clan chief, whose fall would allow them to essentially take over the clan from the inside. These Guild renegades would then own their own country.
Ilsidii, Tabini's grandmother and power in her own right and ruthless cunning, believes Machigi is being set up. She had sent Cameron and his small but elite team of Guild guards into the Marid to settle the Deceiver Pauit in the first book and they now proceed to Mashcigi to establish relations with him. Cameron is Mashicigi and the Marid clan's way out of the traps closing in on as the Guild frames Machigi for war crimes and the other Marid lords seek to replace him.
But the fires of conspiracy and rebellion outrace diplomatic efforts. Cameron and his team flee with Mashigi's aid as a Guild-conducted purge of the rebel Guild explodes among conspirators and loyalists alike.
Isilidi and Cajeiri along with Barbara and Toby are besieged in Cameron's home while Cameron must flee afoot through the badlands separating him from home and safety. Action and adventure abound in the second half of this book in sharp contrast to Deceiver.
My chief frustration remains how little we see of the love-interest (in itself the wrong word as the Atevi Jago has no word for love in her language) between Bren and Jago. There is a rich and unexplored field here. Bren and Jago are lovers, something of a scandal in itself. However we spend little time exploring this at all. Why would an Atevi woman begin this association (i.e. fall in love) with what to her is a Halfling? Jago is about eight and half feet tall, her father Bianchi seems to be about ten feet. You would think that the intimacies of relations between a giantess and a human might yield some moments of humor. Beyond that does anyone ever look askance at her for her relationship?
Imagine if you had a perfectly proportioned partner of another color who was still only three feet tall to your six foot or better? Would the world take so little notice or comment? Is she never embarrassed by it? In short, the difficulties inherent in an interracial relationship, much less an interspecies one seem glossed over. It doubtless helps if your girlfriend is a Guild assassin.
Another means of looking at this is the character of Barbara, Cameron's ex-girlfriend and now his brother's (an agent of the human government) girlfriend. Other than a tinge of jealously and contempt, Jago seems to have little reaction to her. How much more interesting could it have been if there were scenes between these two as they struggle to understand each other and Cameron.
Barbara as written is largely an emotional, grasping nuisance who seems somewhere between a stalker and normal jilted female character, but point is, she is a real human woman. She has love, affection, tears, kindness and on an instinctive level is the more rational choice for Bren, or could have been had she been expanded into three dimensions. Does Bren never long for a person who would understand him in a way no alien could? Never long for that comfort?
Don't get me wrong. I am not dissing the character of Jago but rather wishing she had more of one and I had some access to it. She is the powerful ebony princess, always there and always at Cameron's beck and call, for all that he defers to her in all matter of security. She is mysterious and deadly, but to me to the point of abstraction. Who are you, Jago? What do want and long for and why did it take the shape of Cameron? What does mother think of your new boyfriend? Do you ever dream of children? Will you know what to do if Cameron was crying by a graveside? What would you need from him if you stood over your father Bianchi?s grave and he was in there because he died protecting Cameron? All undiscovered country, but one that beckons.
Another area and this may just be the military geek in me, but when CJ does small unit actions, the running and gunning on the Guild level it is well done and plausible. There is a paucity of detail on the larger scale. Machigi for example comments that his people are a naval power. In a world that varies as wildly for levels of technology as does the Atevi one, I have no idea what that means: ironclads with steam power and Dahlgren guns yet still using sales, like the Abraham Lincoln in 20,000 leagues under the sea? Dreadnaughts of the WWI or II era? Or are we talking about armed fishing trawlers? It may seem odd with a space station and a starship above them but most Atevi live in the equivalent of our later 19th and very early 20th century.
Most of the fighting, which happens usually at the distance, is in deadly small unit scuffles between Guild. Occasionally one sees a mob of hunters or other militia. From the military point of view the war is rather confusing and devoid of detail. Do they have tanks, artillery? Do they operate in divisions, battalions or mere companies? The military of all sides again seems sketched rather than drawn.
Betrayer pumps up the action quotient and the fast cutting back and forth between Cameron's point-of-view as he escapes Marid and Cajeiri as he juggles his deadly grandmother and his promise to Cameron to look after Barbara and Toby during the siege are compelling. When young Cajeiri ends up in combat for the first time, you are truly fearful for this brave little boy even if he is the size of Cameron and Toby.
Betrayer is a strong entry in this series, enjoyable in all respects. It features a well done Todd Lockwood cover, though not as good as the Whelan for Deceiver in my view. I would have enjoyed a more leisurely denouement with more scenes between the principals. Of course I also like the ending of the Lord of the Rings, so go figure. It's probably a good thing that the ending leaves you wanting to see and hear a little more but in typical CJ fashion, when we wrap, we wrap damn fast.

Rep. John Doolittle (R-Roseville) visited the Stonehouse Restaurant in Nevada City on Tuesday and expressed optimism about his campaign.
The longtime incumbent is running in a hot race against Democratic challenger Charlie Brown of Roseville to represent District 4.
At the luncheon hosted by the California Association of Business, Property and Resource Owners, Doolittle said he has been "very encouraged" by what he's seen on the campaign trail lately, adding that his bid for a ninth term in the U.S. House has been criticized by "carping leftists."
Doolittle discussed war in Iraq, the economy and other topics at the banquet held at the upper level of the restaurant. He said he "still believe(s) they will find the WMD" in Iraq and added there were other reasons to invade the country.
Doolittle also discussed the strength of the economy, saying, "Gasoline prices have plummeted."
He attacked his opponent, adding that his debate with Brown in Rocklin last week will soon appear on Doolittle's Web site. Under Doolittle's conditions, the debate was televised to only 20,000 Starstream cable subscribers, a small fraction of the district's voters.
At the Stonehouse, Doolittle fielded questions after his speech from the group of about 20 people. He responded to a question about denying he was the target of a U.S. Justice Department investigation by saying that he "denied that they (DOJ) ever interviewed me."
The Washington Post, citing unnamed sources this weekend, said "a federal task force that includes a dozen Justice Department prosecutors" is investigating Abramoff's dealings with congressional offices, including those of Doolittle and Sen. Conrad Burns (R-Mont.).

TNT (Sun., March 3, 8 p.m. ET)
John Frankenheimer (The Manchurian Candidate) directs a two-night, 4-hour epic about the infamous Confederate prison camp, where almost 13,000 Union soldiers died of exposure, starvation and disease. The story, one of potentially overwhelming power, merely sprawls. One minute it's about a breakout; then it's about Captain Wirz, the barbarian who ran the place; then it's about riots. This is gruel, not history.

ONE of the complications of mental retardation and spastic cerebral palsy in children is bone demineralization accompanied by pathologic fractures. The demineralization is apparently due to nonambulation and/or poor nutrition, both of which are difficult to correct in these patients.
Previous studies in adults have shown a variety of effects on bone and on calcium and phosphorus metabolism during treatment of demineralizing conditions with sodium fluoride,1-8 sex hormone and anabolic steroids,9-20 and inorganic phosphates.21-23 During the treatment of permanently bedfast children in an institution for the mentally retarded, a study was made to compare the effects of sodium fluoride, oxymetholone (an anabolic steroid), and inorganic phosphates on bone density. All of the patients had low bone densities for age as compared to 200 ambulatory patients in the same institution; 68 had bone demineralization which could be determined by visual inspection of x-ray films of the humerus or

Cryptainer LE FREE 128 bit
disk encryption software - Frequently Asked Questions
What is encryption?
Why do I need encryption?
How secure is encryption?
What is Cryptainer LE?
What do I need to know to use Cryptainer LE?
Why do I need Cryptainer LE?
Can I send my confidential data securely over email to my associates?
What kind of encryption does Cryptainer LE use?
What is encryption?
Encryption garbles your data by using irreversible mathematical functions.
It is simply the encoding of data so that it cannot be read by anyone
who does not know the password that decodes it.
Why do I need encryption?
Data on almost every computer is vulnerable.
There is no privacy at all on most PC's. Privacy is something that
we take for granted in the real world but do not pay much attention to
in the digital world. Your PC is open, vulnerable and totally accessible
to any one from your neighbor who shares the cable modem to the
proverbial 13 year old!
Given the ease with which most computers can be broken into, there
is very little one can do, save the obvious - what we do in real
life - protect information. This is easiest done by encryption,
so that even if it is stolen or accessed without your permission
or knowledge, it is useless.
How secure is Encryption?
Passwords within most programs (Word, Excel, Access etc.) can be broken by mere novices without
any computing knowledge. Such password breaking tools are easily
available on the Worldwide Web, for as little as $5.95, or sometimes
even for free!
On the other hand, a file that is encrypted
with a strong encryption algorithm, for example Blowfish 128 bit
that Cryptainer LE uses, is statistically impregnable against
brute force attacks. It would take more than the age of universe
for all the computers in existence to break this encrypted file!
What is Cryptainer LE?
Cryptainer LE is software that can create multiple encrypted containers. It functions like any other
drive (C: or D:) on your computer. Just drag and drop any file into
the Cryptainer. It is automatically encrypted. It's that simple!
Cryptainer files can only be viewed, accessed, browsed or modified
by the user who has the key to open it. At other times it remains
What do I need to know to use Cryptainer
If you can use Windows Explorer, you can use Cryptainer LE. There is really nothing you need to learn.
Why do I need Cryptainer LE?
Because it is the easiest way to ensure privacy of your data. Cryptainer LE guarantees the sanctity of your
data by harnessing the power of a 128 bit encryption algorithm that
would take all the computers in the world working together more
than the age of the universe to decipher. Using Cryptainer LE, you
can secure your data, be it in any form textual, graphical, audio
or video.
Can I send my confidential data securely over email to my associates?
Yes, of course. You can simply send encrypted files generated by
Cryptainer LE over email. Use any email client like Outlook Express
or Netscape mail or any web based email service like Hotmail. The
recipient need not even have a copy of Cryptainer LE to view these
encrypted files.
What kind of encryption does Cryptainer LE use?
Cryptainer LE runs as a special Windows device driver. It operates on a 128 bit implementation of the Blowfish
algorithm in Cipher Block Chaining mode with a block size of 64 bytes.
This ensures that data encrypted using Cryptainer LE is impermeable
to all known forms of attack. Statistically, it would be impossible
to successfully brute-force crack the Cryptainer LE encryption. Blowfish
was designed by Bruce Schneier. It is a block cipher with 64-bit block
size and variable length keys (up to 448 bits). Blowfish utilizes
the idea of randomized S-boxes: while doing key scheduling, it generates
large pseudo-random look-up tables by doing several encryptions. The
tables depend on the user supplied key in a very complex way. This
approach has been proven to be highly resistant against many attacks
such as differential and linear cryptanalysis.
"Cryptainer is a very simple to use program to make sure your valuable documents are safe and sound."

Friday Finds – President's Day Books and Facts February 7, 2014Posted by Karin Perry in Check this out!.
Tags: Friday Finds, President's Day
Welcome to Friday Finds, where each week we'll share lessons or activities that you can take directly to the library to share with your students. So, for those of you who are preparing the kids for President's Day, here are some great picture books and some websites to activities.
President's Day Teacher Resources
President's Day Activities and Lessons
In the comments section, be sure to share some of your favorite President's Day books and resources.
A tongue-in-cheek dental history of our first President
"Poor George had two teeth in his mouth
The day the votes came in.
The people had a President,
But one afraid to grin."
From battling toothaches while fighting the British, to having rotten teeth removed by his dentists, the Father of His Country suffered all his life with tooth problems. Yet, contrary to popular belief, he never had a set of wooden teeth. Starting at the age of twenty-four, George Washington lost on average a tooth a year, and by the time he was elected President, he had only two left! In this reverentially funny tale written in verse and based on Washington's letters, diaries, and other historical records, readers will find out what really happened as they follow the trail of lost teeth to complete tooflessness.
From award-winning author Margaret McNamara and New Yorker artist Barry Blitt comes this partly true and completely funny story of George Washington's 7th birthday. In this clever approach to history, readers will discover the truths and myths about George Washington. Did George Washington wear a wig? No. Did George Washington cut down a cherry tree? Probably not. Readers young and old who are used to seeing George Washington as an old man, will get a new look at the first president—as a kid. Perfect for classrooms, Presidents' Day, or as a birthday gift.
Abraham Lincoln is one of the first giants of history children are introduced to, and now Maira Kalman brings him to life with her trademark style and enthusiasm. Lincoln's legacy is everywhere – there he is on your penny and five-dollar bill. And we are still the United States because Lincoln helped hold them together.
But who was he, really? The little girl in this book wants to find out. Among the many other things, she discovers our sixteenth president was a man who believed in freedom for all, had a dog named Fido, loved Mozart, apples, and his wife's vanilla cake, and kept his notes in his hat. From his boyhood in a log cabin to his famous presidency and untimely death, Kalman shares Lincoln's remarkable life with young readers in a fresh and exciting way.
Caldecott medalist Mordicai Gerstein captures the majestic redwoods of Yosemite in this little-known but important story from our nation's history. In 1903, President Theodore Roosevelt joined naturalist John Muir on a trip to Yosemite. Camping by themselves in the uncharted woods, the two men saw sights and held discussions that would ultimately lead to the establishment of our National Parks.
John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were good friends with very different personalities. But their differing views on how to run the newly created United States turned them into the worst of friends. They each became leaders of opposing political parties, and their rivalry followed them to the White House. Full of both history and humor, this is the story of two of America's most well-known presidents and how they learned to put their political differences aside for the sake of friendship.
John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were very different.
John Adams was short and stout.
Thomas Jefferson was tall and lean.
John was argumentative and blunt.
Tom was soft-spoken and polite.
John sometimes got along with almost no one.
Tom got along with just about everyone.
But these two very different gentlemen did have two things in common: They both cared deeply about the American colonies, and neither cared much for the British tyrant, King George.
With their signature wit, impeccable research, and inventive presentation style, award winners Barbara Kerley and Edwin Fotheringham masterfully blend biography and history to create a brilliant portrait of two American heroes who bravely set aside their differences to join forces in the fight for our country's freedom.

Cinnabar is Mercury Sulfide or HgS. It is a brick red rock, generally, and is occasionally found in the form of a red crystal. Most mercury is obtained by heating cinnabar so that the mercury evaporates and collecting the resulting gas. It has been used for decorative material, jewelry and painting. It is extremely dangerous to inhale or ingest the powder.
Cinnabar has been called dragon's blood, but this is a resin that is similar in appearance to the crystal, much less dangerous.
Cinnabar is considered a stone of transformation and has been called the merchant's stone. It is used to bring about spiritual transformation and attract wealth.

Surrounded by friends, family and rumored boyfriend Liam Hemsworth, the singer, who turns 17 Monday, let loose with an '80s themed bash last week at New York City's Canal Room.
"The whole thing was a surprise," says a source close to Cyrus, who enjoyed a performance by the cast of Broadway's Rock of Ages and blew out candles on a custom-designed cake created by Buddy Valastro, the star of TLC's Cake Boss.
"They didn't want a girly girl cake," says Valastro, who topped off the vanilla cake with Madonna-inspired lace, a stage and accents in Cyrus's favorite color, purple. "It totally fit the theme. It was really awesome."
It's a theme Cyrus knows all too well – when she turned 15, the singer also had an '80s themed party in her hometown, Nashville. "She loves the '80s," her mom Tish, who planned the Nov. 18 affair, told PEOPLE. "The fashion, the big hair– she thinks it's so funky."

text: I have been playing FS2000 since it came out. On ILS approaches, everything, but the glide slope, seem to work. Without the glideslope it is very difficult to do a precision approach (especially with the Concorde!). The glide slope does work with the already created flights by FS2000 (i.e. stormy approach into boston, in the 737). But when I create my own flights, the glide slope doesn't activate. I normally like to land in San Diego. The nav. freq. is 110.9. This activates the localizer, but again, not the glide slope. I've tried to input the coinciding freq. (nav2) to the glide slope freq., but that doesn't work either. If you can help me in identifying the problem or the activation command, my world will once again open up

Fixed PriceDelivery by April 2, 2014
As part of huge application we want to create a bunch of functions as single page applications.
Due to the existing environment we have choosen a technology and will stay with that.
The base application runs ASP.NET MVC 5 with Entity Framework 6. For SPA we have choose AngularJS and a modified Bootstrap theme.
The business layer exists and so is the database and all back end environment. This job is more or less a client programming job along with some heavy CSS work.
To fullfill the job, you MUST :
- Know Visual Studio 2012 / 2013 Professional
- Know how to access a public TFS server
- Know how to setup SQL Server
- Know how to setup project to run in a local IIS
- Have a very good understanding of MVC 4 / 5
- Have a very good understanding of Entity Framework Code First, Data Annotations
- Know CSS 3 very well and be an expert in Bootstrap
- Know jQuery very well
- be an expert in AngularJS
We provide a clear description of requirement and very precisely developed design. We expect that the design approach we provide will be applied exactly, pixel by pixel.
We will do some interviews with candidates first and after doing a first preselection we provide more documents.
We expect that the candidate is available full time for the whole project. We have an estimation of four weeks for this project (remember it's client work along with API calls in an existing application where business layer and database already exists).
Communication will be through Odesk, Skype, Phone, Email.
We speak German and English.
### More about the project ###
The application already exists. There is no functionality to program. The goal of this project is to redesign the UI, apply the screens as shown in the requirements document, and realize all this as single page application.
The database, business logic, functional forms that realize all this are already there and they are working.
What we need additionally to pure CSS is a WebAPI (or controller) based service layer along with viewmodels that make the EAP less tightly coupled to the existing business layer and database model.
The business layer and database model MUST NOT be changed, because EAP is only one UI, there are other, larger parts of the whole platform that use the same backend layer. So everything needed in EAP must be make there, without disturbing the other parts.
So, the tasks are exactly this:
- Create AngularJS based views for screens shown in document
- Create ViewModels on server to support these forms
- Create services/WebAPI methods to support the forms ajax postbacks
- Wire up the AngularJS view using MVC views as described in the document
- Use business layer function to wire up the services/WebAPI to get access to the database
- The screens have to be realized EXACTLY like shown in the document, with the colors shown there, pixel by pixel, with no exception otherwise explicitly approved by me through written notice
**IMPORTANT! In case the business layer does not provide what's needed you MUST call us and request this functionality from us. You can't overview the sideeffects and hence you MUST NOT do any changes in the business layer or data model by yourself!**

The developer Guerrilla Games isworking on a new episode of the serial shooter Killzone. This goes atleast from a report in the latest issue of EDGE magazine show.Accordingly, the team had begun under the direction of Steven TerHeide already working on the game. Ter Heide already acted inKillzone 2 and Killzone 3 as Senior Producer.
So far there is still no officialannouncement of the game, so that it is not clear, for which platformit will appear. However, it was recently announced that a majorstudio Sony has started to develop a game for the PlayStation 3successor. This could be either Guerrilla Games, since this studiohas since 2005 owned by Sony.
It is therefore quite possible that apotential kill zone 4 for the PlayStation 4 will be released orwhatever may be the hot new Sony console. Possibly even as a launchtitle.

Update: While the app is no longer behind the Play Store beta wall, Opera is apparently waiting before they throw the switch. The Opera blog post said access to the general public was first come, first serve, but there's a waiting list in the app right now. Opera is allowing everyone access, but it's happening slowly, probably to manage server load.
Unlimited data is becoming a rarity these days, so you might need to watch your usage more closely.Read More

Memory isn't cheap enough to ignore. It limits the number of backends
you can run and the amount of caching you can do. Being careful with
memory will get a lot more scalability out of your hardware.

"We're holding a family meeting now," Joe told PEOPLE in a brief interview midday. "We don't like what's going on."
A source close to the family tell PEOPLE that, while the adults of the family put up a brave front on Friday for Michael's three children – Prince, 12, Paris, 11, and Blanket, 7 – the emotions on Saturday are raw and bitter.
'The Sadness is Unreal'"The kids have fallen apart today," says the source. "They have taken it so, so hard. Yesterday everybody was being really strong for the kids, but today it just hit everybody. There are so many tears."
A sharp division has opened between Michael Jackson's lawyers and personal staff and his parents and eight siblings.
"There is so much sadness in the house today, it's unreal. They are so confused. They are so in the dark," says the source. "The family has no access to the will. [Michael's lawyers] won't let the family see the will ... The family has no idea what to do. They don't even know when to bury him. They don't know what to do about anything. They aren't getting any answers from Michael's lawyers."
Mrs. Jackson RebuffedEven Katherine Jackson, the singer's mother, has been rebuffed by Michael's camp, according to the source. "Michael's people won't give Mrs. Jackson anything."
Another source of deep concern for the family: The intentions of Debbie Rowe, Jackson's former wife and the mother of his two older children, whose lawyer yesterday confirmed that Rowe retains parental rights. The Jacksons apparently fear that Rowe, who has not lived with the children in years, may now want to raise them.
"They haven't heard from Debbie Rowe and don't know what's going on in that respect, either. Joe and Katherine really want the children," says the source. "They for sure want the children."
Independent AutopsyAnother source close to the family tells PEOPLE that the family is so concerned about the reliability of Jackson's handlers that there is a possibility that patriarch Joe Jackson, now acting once again as the family chief, will request an independent autopsy.
"They're in shock and they want answers," the source says. "The issue is the people around him: vampires and blood suckers."
About the only positive development, says this source, is the rare sense of unity that now unites the large and fractious family. "They are coming together and Joe is running the show. It was tough for them all growing up, but the parents never stole from Michael and they had his best interests at heart."

Wow a planner, I'm impressed. It looks good to me, though I don't know what a breakfast sandwich is. I am assuming it isn't using bread.
Also, it seems like a cup of nuts a day is alot. Not only the calories but I have seen others talk about other properties in them that may not be so good in such quantities. Maybe someone else can pop in here for that one.


text:
"He's still in rehab," says the source. "His doctor told him to do physical therapy once a day, but he's doing it twice a day, because he wants a speedy, 100 percent recovery."
The buzz is that Michaels – who friends call a fighter – is pushing himself for what would likely be a dramatic first public appearance at the May 23 finale of The Celebrity Apprentice.
But the rock star is just as keen to get back to his Roses & Thorns tour, which was first interrupted by his emergency appendectomy on April 12. In fact, the source says Michaels will probably return to the stage in as little as two weeks.
"It's looking likely that his first date back will be May 28 at the Hard Rock in Mississippi," says the source, who confirms that Michael's crew will keep bus drivers informed of all the closest hospitals on each of their routes.
So he's working hard, but how is Michaels feeling?
"Bret sounds good," says the source. "He's still on meds and he sounds tired."

"It's funny, but I think I was more excited for last week's game against SUU than tomorrow's [game against BYU]. Probably because of the first game of the season thing, but I just want to get it over with a win and no injuries and then look forward to SJSU and then, of course, USC."

"You are assuming that an internal investigation and a stacked grand jury finding that an officer did not act criminally actually means the officer was objectively not guilty. The real problem is that the system is set up at every level to ensure that officers go unpunished, regardless of the officer's guilt. Undeniably guilty police officers are regularly found "not guilty" by a system carefully designed at every level to do just that. Remember when we all saw video of the Rodney King beating and the officers were all found "not guilty" in spite of 100% undeniable proof that they were guilty of all charges? The feds had to step in and put Officer Koon in jail for civil rights violations since they couldn't retry him for the crimes he undeniably committed.
The criminal justice system is completely broken. Police are never held accountable, innocent people are far too frequently convicted, and criminals are disproportionately punished based on ethnicity and socio-economic status."

"We do not live in a world of absolutes. It is possible (and hopefully likely) to be as equally appalled by the actions towards cops as the actions by cops. It is possible to be 100% supportive of law enforcement, but also 100% against the extremely small subset of power-mad a**holes who feel that carrying a badge gives them unquestioned authority to beat down (at best) or gun down (at worst) anyone who doesn't immediately comply with them in exactly the manner they want.
I'm saddened and more a little bit horrified at where we are as a country today."

"The "We're not in the PAC 12 or Big 12 because of religious bigotry" is pure BS. BYU is a teaching institution set up primarily for LDS youth to meet mates. Next to no research is done there, and it's not a cultural fit for the PAC. Every PAC 12 school is either a Carnegie I research institution or a member of the AAU. BYU will never be either. BYU was never considered as a candidate for expansion by the PAC, primarily because Utah was a much better fit, and there was no way the PAC was going to take two schools from the same market.
The Big 12 was interested in BYU, and came sniffing around during the expansion boom in 2010-11, but BYU came to the table with a list of demands and completely overplayed their hand, turning the Big 12 off. Shortly after that the Big 12 added TCU and more importantly West Virginia - with WVU in the fold geography was added to the list of cons associated with adding anybody in the future west of Lubbock, TX.
Blaming it on religious bigotry is a cop out and ignores the realities that a) BYU is a terrible fit for the PAC 12 and b) BYU severely overestimated their value when the Big 12 came poking around.
For BYU fans it's just easier to skip any sort of inward reflection and ignore these realities, and blame their lot in life on the religious bigotry of others."

Forecast for Saturday game time ought to be low 40's and dry air. When you walk onto the field, the conditions look benign enough but they can fool those who haven't practiced in them. Expect to see Oregon make several turnovers and walk away with a loss."

Support forums for all POD HD products
by superkungfukid on 2013-01-30 12:19:32
Well, I just had the displeasure of discovering how useless Customtone is for owners of the HD "bean" at present. There are very few patches that have been uploaded by users thus far and what is there looks to be mostly metal oriented. Much to my chagrin, it seems the custom user patches available for the other POD HD models are not compatible with the bean - why, I don't know...which brings me to my question(s):
Is there some kind of conversion possible to allow customtone presets for other POD HD models to be compatible with the POD HD Desktop? Does anyone know why they aren't compatible already?
by spaceatl on 2013-01-30 12:24:55

With tones from both the HD500 and HDPro, I have tried both drag and drop into HD Edit method and changing the file extension to .hbe, and all I get is an error message either way and it resets the patch to a blank "new tone" state...
by spaceatl on 2013-01-30 12:45:47
current firmware? current Edit?
I have heard with some patches you have to prepare them for a Desktop...2 things that the Desktop does not have...FXLoop and Variax input...I think that can cause a patch reset if the HD500 or HDPro patch was saved that way...A corrupt patch will do that as well...
You can run the editors without the hardware and prepare a patch...
by silverhead on 2013-01-30 12:49:16
There is a Pod HD patch conversion utility generously provided by one of our community members. I will do a quick search and find it for you, then update this post with a link.......
.... and here it is:
Thanks to jzab!!
by superkungfukid on 2013-01-30 13:02:37
I'm running the most current everything.
Are you saying I should be able to load the patch into edit, without the Desktop connected to the computer, and prepare it for the Desktop?
by superkungfukid on 2013-01-30 13:03:19
I'll have to try that out ASAP. Has anyone else successfully used this conversion utility?
by silverhead on 2013-01-30 13:08:55
Yes - many have used the utility.
Alternatively, you could run the HD500 Edit program (without any HD500 device connected), load the HD500 patch, edit it to remove any Pod HD incompatibilities (inputs and FX Loop), and then save it - still as a n HD500 patch. But with the incompatibilities removed it should now load successfully into Pod HD Edit.
by superkungfukid on 2013-01-30 13:11:33
I can download the HD500 Edit program without needing to have a HD500? Cool! I wasn't aware of that, but it could definitely come in handy.
by superkungfukid on 2013-01-30 13:12:55
Thanks spaceatl and silverhead!

ATLANTA - At the Medical College of Georgia, a new cancer research facility is set to be finished by the first part of next year. A structure for the nursing and allied health sciences programs is being built. And more construction could be on the way.

"We have two cranes up right now," said MCG President Daniel Rahn.
But, like other school heads around the state, Rahn also sees looming needs for his campus that the legislature should consider funding.
"If you find a president who says, 'This'll be enough,' I'll be stunned," Rahn said.
Across the University System of Georgia, colleges say they're cramped for space or working out of old buildings that don't fit their needs. A parade of presidents recently made the annual pilgrimage to Atlanta to press their case for new facilities before the University System Board of Regents. In many cases, the school chiefs hit the same refrain: Current buildings were too old, too dilapidated or too small for the coming onslaught of students that the system is set to absorb in the next decade or so.
Regents expanded the size of the list of projects they would send to legislators and said the Georgia General Assembly needs to come up with more funding for the buildings.
But the numbers are staggering. According to Regent Martin NeSmith, who chairs the board's real-estate committee, the most pressing needs of the university system total nearly $1.2 billion. All told, the state's colleges and universities need about $7 billion, system officials told the regents.
Some state officials say they want to do more.
"I would like to see it increase, considering what we're facing in the way of growth that's going to be coming into the system in the next 10, 15 years," said state Sen. Brian Kemp, R-Athens and chairman of the higher education subcommittee on the Senate's budget-writing panel.
But Kemp and others point out there are other state needs as well: Rapidly rising health-care costs are squeezing the Medicaid budget; the state is revamping its formula for funding elementary and secondary schools; and some lawmakers already are queasy about endangering the state's highly regarded bond rating.
"It's not just a matter of writing checks," Rahn said, pointing to the huge tab. "That would be unrealistic."
At the beginning of each summer, a select group of college presidents trek to Atlanta to plead their case for new buildings. This year, 14 projects were presented in the hopes that they would make a priority list the regents submit to the legislature each year to help guide lawmakers' spending decisions.
Last year, the legislature provided design funds for eight of the projects; no project got construction money.
The system hopes to get building funds for the designed projects next year, but that would require issuing more than $200 million in bonds.
NeSmith said the decisions about which projects to fund this year seemed more difficult to make.
"It was a lot more difficult trying to pick, in my opinion," he said. "The need was so big."
Some of the presidents, such as Savannah State chief Carlton Brown, pointed to buildings that still had asbestos. Kennesaw State President Betty Siegel said her school lacks enough space - 919,000 square feet - at a campus with less than 750,000 square feet to begin with.
Rahn told regents that the MCG School of Dentistry is housed in a building built in 1970 that isn't even equipped to handle the new dental equipment needed to teach students.
"We need more electrical capacity, and we also need more space for chairs," he said.
But the question facing the state is how to fund more projects despite nagging needs in other areas. A state bond package for the coming fiscal year that includes hundreds of millions of dollars in projects, from ports to roads to university building designs, made some lawmakers jittery in the session that ended in April.
Even so, NeSmith said a large bond package targeted at university construction wouldn't be a bad idea.
"We think that would be very wise," he said.
Rahn said he thought more cooperation was needed, including input from the regents, the state Department of Education and state officials.
"I want funds allocated to health care, too," Rahn said. "Unfortunately, you can only spend a dollar once."
Kemp said he didn't know if the state's bond rating would be endangered by a massive spending initiative for Georgia colleges and universities.
He hopes the economy will continue to turn around and free up more money to meet the system's needs.
"I think it's going to be hard," Kemp said. "But I think we can do it."

Lululemon Athletica Inc. reported Thursday that third-quarter earnings more than tripled, continuing its growth trajectory since going public last summer, and the yogawear company raised its guidance for 2007.
This story first appeared in the November 30, 2007 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
For the three months ended Oct. 31, Lululemon said net income increased to $7.6 million, or 11 cents a diluted share, from $1.7 million, or 2 cents, in the same period in 2006.
Sales for the period climbed 84 percent to $66.1 million from $36 million, propelled by 27 new store openings and strong same-store sales in existing units. Lululemon has opened eight stores in the month since the quarter ended and plans to open three more in the fourth quarter, then 30 to 35 stores in fiscal 2008.
For the first nine months of the fiscal year, earnings increased 139 percent to $16.2 million from $6.8 million. Sales for the first three quarters grew 75 percent to $169.6 million from $96.7 million.
The Vancouver-based company also raised its guidance for 2007 to 40 cents to 42 cents a diluted share, up from 30 cents to 33 cents previously, assuming same-store sales growth of 20 percent or more annually.
Lululemon launched an initial public offering in July that raised $327.6 million, and shares are trading at more than double the $18 offer price. The stock was up $1.04 on Thursday to close at $41.54.
During a conference call, company executives said a controversy over the VitaSea line had not damaged purchases of the line, which represents about 1 percent of total sales. The New York Times reported this month that the VitaSea line did not appear to contain the seaweed benefits promoted on its educational tags and content label. The newspaper said it got a tip from a Lululemon investor, who was shorting the stock, and commissioned a separate lab test to compare the contents of a cotton J. Crew T-shirt with a VitaSea-line shirt. The test confirmed no significant difference in mineral levels but could not rule out the presence of seaweed entirely. The company has removed the health benefits claims from VitaSea tags.
"We stand behind the integrity of our product and processes, including VitaSea," Bob Meers, Lululemon chief executive officer, said on the call.
The company has completed an analysis of its fabrics to insure that factories and suppliers are complying with specifications, Meers said.

A prominent "activist" fund in New York has told Dow Chemical to spin off its performance plastics, performance materials and feedstocks-and-energy units.

Mokhtar Belmokhtar is an Algerian-born former commander of al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM). In July, he was reported to have been killed or seriously injured in the battle of Gao, in which AQIM supported the Movement for Unity and Jihad in West Africa (MUJWA) and seized control of Gao from the Tuareg-led National Movement for the Liberation of Azawad (MNLA) (see Terrorism Monitor Brief, July 12). Although the rumor of his death proved to be false, in October new reports emerged that he was removed from his AQIM combat unit, the Mulathamin Brigade. In December more rumors emerged about Belmokhtar. Now he is believed to have left AQIM in order to focus his efforts in sub-Saharan countries outside of the traditional Maghreb region, such as Burkina Faso, Chad and Niger (AFP, December 3). According to Omar Ould Hamaha, a former deputy of Belmokhtar and recent chief of staff of MUJWA, Belmokhtar will still remain under the orders of al-Qaeda Central (AP, October 15).
Belmokhtar's departure from AQIM results from his falling out of favor of AQIM leader Abdelmalek Droukdel and other members of AQIM who question Belmokhtar's commitment to Shari'a because of Belmokhtar's reputation as a weapons and drug smuggler (AFP, October 15). He is now planning to establish a new battalion named "Mouakaoun Bidima" the "Signatories by Blood" (Le Temps d'Algerie, December 7). In a video that Belmokhtar released after his dismissal, he said that he had foreign militants under his command and that they were prepared for suicide bombings. [1] He also warned all countries against intervening in Mali.
Meanwhile, Abdelmalek Droukdel is also sending a warning to European and African countries against any military intervention in Mali. In a video message, he said, "If you want peace and security in your country, we are for it. If you want war, the Sahara is a large graveyard for your soldiers and a disaster for your interests." Belmokhtar and Droukdel may have parted ways, but they share common ground on threatening the international coalition against intervention. Whether they will follow up and fight the international forces in conventional battles in the cities, engage in guerilla combat, or return to their desert smuggling ways will be known once the intervention begins, as expected, in early 2013.

The Pakistani Taliban is planning to change its leadership in 2013. Hakimullah Mahsud, who was elected chief of the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistani (TTP) in 2009, will be replaced. According to Pakistan military officials, Wali ur Rehman is the likely new leader of the TTP. Rahman is on the U.S. State Department's Most Wanted list, with a $5 million reward for information leading to his capture. Among other militant activities, he has participated in cross-border attacks in Afghanistan against U.S. and NATO personnel and was allegedly involved in the attack against CIA officers on December 30, 2009, at Forward Operating Base Chapman in Khost, Afghanistan (Indian Express, December 7). In the attack, a Jordanian citizen posing as an informant carried out a suicide bombing during a meeting with CIA officers, killing seven officers. It was the highest number of CIA officers to have been killed in a single attack since the 1983 U.S. Embassy bombing in Beirut, Lebanon. The State Department has offered a $5 million reward for information leading to Mahsud's capture.
The change in leadership is related to the U.S. plans to significantly reduce its troop presence in Afghanistan in 2013. Whereas Hakimullah Mahsud is known to be a "brutal commander," Rehman is "a more pragmatic [leader] for whom reconciliation has become a priority (Express Tribune, December 7)." This strategy may allow the TTP to portray itself as responsible for expediting the withdrawal of the U.S. forces and boost TTP morale and momentum as Afghanistan and Pakistan move into a post-U.S. withdrawal era after a decade of intense U.S. military involvement in the country. A reduction of tensions with the Pakistani government would allow the TTP to focus on Afghanistan and, according to a Pakistani official, "complicate Western efforts to stabilize Afghanistan before most NATO troops leave by the end of 2014 (ANI [New Delhi], December 7)."

Having your "victims" play well is a component of many of the BCS computers. Its a factor in determining the "strengh of schedule" variable.

Unfortunately for TCU/Boise, the BCS scrapped "margin of victory" years ago. The point was to remove the necessity to run up the score late in games. Ironically, this hurts teams that have a good DEFENSE to go with a good offense. So last year Cincinati got as much credit for winning, say 35-34, as TCU got for winning 55-7. I'm fine with calling 35 and 55 even, but you should get credit for holding your opponent to 7 instead of 34. Ironically, margin of victory has been transfered from the computers to the polls in the guise of "Style Points",which hopefully takes defense into account...

Web application development is currently moving in many projects from end to end server side technologies to HTML5 RIA developed with REST Webservices/ Webscoket on serverside + pure client side technologies GUI (Backbone.js for example).
Eclipse has been always been quite bad in the field of advanced Javascript development. JSDT was a good start, but its development has been stopped for a few years, and in its current status, it is not really a good tool for real HTML5/JS dev. From what I know, there is no roadmap for strong move on this field in the WTP team. The only real Eclipse initiative for client side development is Orion (http://www.eclipse.org/orion/) outside of the IDE.
The only other alternative is Aptana Studio 3, acquired last year by AppAccelerator.
My question is : is there any plan to consider client side development as a first class citizen in JBoss Studio, even if this question apply to the whole Eclipse Ecosystem ? Other IDE like Netbeans or IntelliJ Idea have a strong support for these technologies, and my guess is this lack may be a significant blocking point in the following years.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Not sure we have enough resources to dedicate to some JSDT extension component, that's max's call.
But anyway, Seb, could you be more specific and list the features you feel are missing?
The patch is proposed for the issue Bug 419970 - [refactoring] Change Function Signature doesn't work for modified files.
Patch fixes the search in working copies issue.
The patches with a fix and JUnit Test Case are proposed for the issue Bug 406519 - [validation] Valid JavaScript code flagged as error (regexp, infinity, non-breaking space)
The issue is fixed by specifiyng the characters '\u000b' (VERTICAL TAB) and '\u00a0' (NO-BREAK SPACE) as the Whitespace ones
The patch is proposed for the issue Bug 324661 - [UI] No working sets are shown in the new project wizard .
The following changes are made to fix the issue:
- The 'Working Set Selection' dialog is made to show all the Working Sets by default.
- The 'Show Only JavaScript Working Sets' checkbox is added under the Working Sets list that allows a user to hide
non-JavaScripts Working Sets (which actually JavaScripts ans Resource Working Sets). The option value is stored under the
Dialog Settings as well as the Working Sets selection history.
The commit is pushed for review via Gerrit: https://git.eclipse.org/r/18701
The patch is proposed for the issue Bug 422390 - [syntax coloring][regression] "Function declarations" setting broke anonymous function body coloring.
The following changes are made to fix the issue:
- org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.dom.ASTConverter.convert(AbstractMethodDeclaration) is made not to use org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.internal.compiler.ast.AbstractMethodDeclaration.getName() method to get the function name, because the method may return inferred method name instead of null in case of function expressions.
- org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.internal.compiler.ast.AbstractMethodDeclaration.selector modifier is returned to 'public' due to allow it's usage in ASTConverter.convert()
The commit is pushed for review via Gerrit: https://git.eclipse.org/r/18962
I'm going to resolve this issue as partially resolved since we have done great strides in improving javascript support in JSDT.
for JBT 4.1.x or rather Eclipse Kepler SR2 we've help fix many of the false warnings and in JBT 4.2.x (based on Eclipse Luna) more improvements are coming in but keeping them driven by this openended jira is not useful imo.
Thus resolving this jira, but do know we are working on this but it will be in more specific jiras and if that is too much then follow Eclipse WTP releases and jboss tools releases and watch their New and noteworthy docs which should highlight these.

If you're an animal lover (and who isn't?), you'll love this book. Fifty Animals is full of fascinating facts and anecdotes that describe our symbiotic and other relationships with interesting creatures through time.Do you admire your friend's bright red shirt? If so, tell her that for centuries the best and most durable red dye came from Mexico and was shipped as far away as Asia. This red dye came from thousands of insects named chochineal. It takes about 70,000 insects to make just a pound of it. Since the advent of chemical dyes, it's seldom used in textiles any longer, but it now employed as a safe colorant for food. The lowly donkey otherwise known as ass, has a reputation for being incredibly dumb, when in fact, they are smart, very adaptable animals that have carried our heavy loads for centuries throughout the world.The wise and majestic elephant--my favorite mammal--we unfortunately coerced into war.

Personal Statement
I'm committed to a disciplined, historically engaged, technologically expedient, interventionist attitude towards architecture and design. Building upon Hans Hollein's radical claim in 1968 that "everything is architecture." In my work I explore architecture as a mood and attitude as much as it is a building, place, or thing. My current research explores a long-term history of sustainability and environmentalism in the Chicagoland region by focusing on the origins of ecology in the late 1800s to the ascendancy of the Chicago Wilderness consortium today.
Getting at the heart of a burgeoning environmental ethic, a central concern of my research examines how the pursuit of wilderness fundamentally challenges the way we look at and design the urban environment. Granting moral and aesthetic weight to nature over humanity raises profound questions about the ecological side of the city where technical things, like bugs and soil conditions, can provide critical perceptions towards the landscape that have helped to amplify the uneasy relationship between people and nature. By taking a longue durée historical perspective of urban form at the crossroads of environmentalism and urbanism, I contend, opens the possibilities to more radically engage the paradoxes and contradictions that unfold when the wilderness ideal meets the expanding landscape of the contemporary city.

While we're not scheduled to open the new building until Monday, April 19th, we plan on kicking off our grand opening that day with our first Gaming Tournament, complete with prizes and plenty of games to choose from. We'll open at 10:00 AM that day, but if you find yourself at school, no problem. You can come anytime, but we expect to get things going between 3:00 and 4:00 PM that day and plan to play till we close at 9:00 PM. Tell all your friends about it! Don't miss this fun, free activity at the new Kingwood Branch Library building!
This week I did something for the very first time. I read a book . . . entirely on my computer! That's right, I traded the pleasure of turning pages between my fingers for the convenience of advancing digital pages on my laptop. And, to my surprise, I enjoyed it almost every bit as much as the real thing! Did you know that the library offers access to downloadable ebooks and audiobooks, not to mention videos and music? Well, we do!
