Abhisit Vejajjiva, the former Thai Prime Minister, said that he would fight the charge of murder formally levelled at him today during a meeting with the head of Thailand's Department of Special Investigation (DSI).
The department's chief, Tharit Pengdit, holds Mr Abhisit responsible for the death of the taxi driver Phan Khamkong, who was shot by Thai soldiers during the unrest that broke out in April 2010 when thousands of so-called Red Shirt protestors allied to Abhisit's predecessor, Thaksin Sinawatra, descended on Bangkok.
As many as 700 riot police stood watch outside the DSI office today as Mr Abhisit arrived

THANK YOU FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO READ THIS. Enjoy!
There are many, many games that've exceedingly sucked over the years. But the one that sticks out to me personally was one my sister wound up with called "The Lion and The King", which she mistook to be "The Lion King". Well she was certainly surprised to find out I was right when I explained it wasn't a Disney video game. But really, I just can't emphasize how bad this game was. I remember the opening cinematic with a Lion telling it's cub to "Stay away from the black panther!" with the worst piece of voice acting I've ever heard. Following that there was another game called "The Sensible World of Soccer", which was just utterly terrible and does not deserve an explination as to why.
Hope you don't mean the Retro Classic that is Sensible soccer?(note the 16 bit and bellow versions)Following that there was another game called "The Sensible World of Soccer", which was just utterly terrible and does not deserve an explination as to why.
Spoiler Alert!

I was into weird games before people knew what they where
@D_Bloke - My inane prattle
There was Sensible Soccer and the Sensible World of Soccer. Sensible World of Soccer was a sequel to Sensible Soccer roughly two years later. Not myself, nor anyone I knew got on with Sensible World of Soccer, which is why I have dubbed it one of the worst I've ever played in my personal opinion. Sensible Soccer I was reliably informed to be a decent game by my older siblings. Their assurance that the first one was better, and my own bad experience with the sequel later on just fueled my dislike of Sensible World of Soccer.

The Tragedy: A Middle Aged Man's Wife Won't Let Him Have a Bigger TV
I have a couple questions regarding the purchase of a new (and our first) television. Mainly, what size should we get, and then of course which model. Our budget is probably around $700 for the TV itself. [more inside]
What is a good, professional level, television/video monitor?
I need a professional level (able to color calibrate) television/video monitor to use a client monitor. [more inside]
How to go from zero to TV?
We haven't had a proper TV in over a decade. I would like to have something other than my laptop to watch streaming media, DVDs, Netflix, etc. Can you explain how this works in 2013? I imagine we'd buy something like this Samsung LED HDTV and some kind of speakers. Then what? Do we plug it into a laptop? What exactly is Apple TV and how does it stack up against Roku? This seems like it should be a simple question, but I feel like a caveman emerging from the dark, and am fairly bewildered at all of the options and variations out there. [more inside]

One Home Entertainment System to Rule Them All
I would like to buy a home entertainment system. I would like to listen to music, watch television, movies, and play videogames. I would like to have Netflix. I would like to stream media from my network or the cloud. I want great sound but I am not an audiophile, although I am not averse to spending a lot on speakers. I do not want to spend more than 8 hours doing research. I will spend up to $2500-$3000. How do I attack this problem? Can you recommend specific TV's, receivers, speakers, or stuff like a Roku box? Can you recommend sites that provide easy to understand, objective reviews of equipment like TelevisionInfo? I do not want to hit the forums if I don't have to. Can you recommend specific configurations of equipment or point me to sites that supply this information. I feel like if I don't get pointed in the right direction, I am going to over analyze this and spend far too much time that I don't have. I just want a rocking home entertainment solution for my family that I won't want to upgrade a week later.
If I buy the nonamebrand TV it's going to explode!?
My current bedroom TV has decided it prefers to only do sound now. Not a big deal-it is old and was a hand-me-down. But, holymajoly, this TV buying thing is WAY more complicated than "I need a TV. OK, that one." [more inside]
LED LCD HDTV? I'm looking to finally replace my 1998-vintage CRT with a Samsung 40" LED LCD @120 Hz (model #UN40C6300SF). It's on sale at Best Buy and the reviews have been very positive with a few complaints of bad panels and visible corner "flashlighting" in a dark room. Anyone have experience with LED TVs? I like their sexy slimness, but are they built to last? Should I wait another year for a comparably-priced 3D version?
LG LCD Television Display Issue
I own a basic 42 inch LG LCD TV-- I believe 1080p and 60hz. The television is about two and half years old. Recently two vertical lines have appeared that run roughly in line with where the standard definition display would end on the left and right edges. It seems as if these lines are "burnt in" to the display. The lines are extremely visible under light to medium tones and are about 1 inch thick at their widest. Is the TV spent? Obviously no warranty is in effect at this point. Anyone have any solutions or recommendations?

You Can Lead a Luddite to LCD, But... yaddah yaddah yaddah

I gave up TV. Now help me buy a TV. (...Or a humongous monitor for my computer/dvd player.)
A couple months ago, I sold my old Sony Trinitron and gave up TV. It's been fantastic and I haven't really looked back. But I *have* been missing watching movies on a screen bigger than my 15" laptop. I've also always wanted a bigger monitor for my laptop, so I can juggle more projects at once. So I'm starting to look around for a large LCD monitor or sizable HDTV to serve these needs. I've had a couple co-workers at previous jobs tell me they use an LCD TV as a monitor and they swear by it for cost savings and multi-functionality. [more inside]

How can I shield my TV from electrical interference?
I have a small LCD television hanging on the wall. I hung it in front of the power outlet in order to hide the cord, but it picks up a little bit of interference in that position. If I move it away from the outlet, the interference goes away, but you can see the cord. Is there a solution that will allow me to sheild the TV from the interference and keep it hanging where it is?
LCD Television lip-sync
I've just bought a shiny new LCD television. It's very beautiful but there's a serious problem with audio and video synchronisation. Sounds come out, then the lips move. The effect is weird. It hadn't occurred to me that this was a problem but apparently it is, a known one. Is there anything I can do? [more inside]

Flat-panel/LCD monitor suggestions and considerations
I'm looking to pick up a flat panel display, at least 20", and I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations or opinions based on LCDs they own currently? What are the salient things to look for, particular to LCDs? I doubt I'll be using the flat panel much for 3D gaming, but I want something that won't artifact at all? I'm looking for something in the mid-range, price-wise, but obviously the cheaper, the better. Thanks.

A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor
Post to the Host
Host Garrison Keillor answers your questions about life, love, writing, authors, and of course, A Prairie Home Companion.
Dear Garrison- I have enjoyed
September 28, 2004 |
Dear Garrison-
I have enjoyed you for well over 20 years, and I listen to your monologues when I fly which helps prevent panic/anxiety attacks. My favorite is the one about Bruno the fishing dog. Will you be at Town Hall in New York City again in December, as you have the past few years?
Priscilla Witte
I am going to try to remember not to do monologues in which people experience severe turbulence on flights. (I'm on a plane right now, from Seattle to Minneapolis, crossing the Rockies, and it's very smooth, thank you.) Bruno, as you may know, was based on a real dog who lived in Red Wing, Minnesota, twenty years ago, whose owners had a bed & breakfast there. As for Town Hall, we will do four shows there in April, 2005, and we'll spend December here in Minnesota. New York City is very festive at Christmas, but they don't get enough snow for my taste, and I want to spend Christmas in good old St. Paul with my relatives.

Hello Ngwestar,
Zé advice me to comment on your post but I write a new post here.
I don't want to make an argument about burmese unicode here because this site is not meant for that issue.
But I think I need to explain why I use Ayar Unicode instead of other Unicode you mentioned.
Before I start this project, I look for which Unicode should use in translation.
I test Padauk, Myazedi, Myanmar 3 and Ayar. Ayar is the last font I tested.
I find out that Padauk, Myazedi and Myanmar 3 have some rendering problems and typo problem.
You said Ayar is not unicode and only fonts you mentioned are unicode. I don't think that so.
You know, Ayar follow all unicode code points and differ with other font in some glymphs' encoding method.
See http://www.unicode.org/standard/WhatIsUnicode.html
It says –
Even for a single language like English no single encoding was adequate for all the letters, punctuation, and technical symbols in common use.
These encoding systems also conflict with one another. That is, two encodings can use the same number for two different characters, or use different numbers for the same character. Any given computer (especially servers) needs to support many different encodings; yet whenever data is passed between different encodings or platforms, that data always runs the risk of corruption.
So actually, in Myanmar Unicode range, there are 5 different ethnic group's languages, — Burmese, Mon, Shan, Karen, Kayah–, and they have their own language nature. So they need different encoding methods. At least 3 encoding methods need for Myanmar Languages.
All the fonts you mentioned as unicode fonts support only some of them. Even Padauk font which include all glymphs in Myanmar Unicode Range, cannot use all 5 of this ethnic groups' languages. Padauk have some display error in Mon. Only Ayar Unicode can read or write all 5 of ethnic group's languages.
Beside Unicode.org says –
Unicode provides a unique number for every character, no matter what the platform, no matter what the program, no matter what the language.
Only Ayar has cross platform compatibility. None of them, you mentioned as unicode, use in Mac OS. Only Ayar can do that. None of them cannot use in adobe systems. Only Ayar can use in adobe systems. I tested it and it can work perfectly in Adobe CS3.
All the fonts you mentioned as unicode are only meant for Micorsoft Platform in very limited Applications. And also meant for only use in burmese languages, not for all the languages include in Myanmar Unicode range. We have a plan to translate for all ethnic groups. We have very active translation team. So the font use for WP translation needs to fully support all the ethnic groups. I wrote in our official site that I will change Ayar unicode to other unicode if that unicode can do everything ayar can do now. Don't worry about data interchangable, Ayar has many tools for it and working to improve. Don't worry about wiki page, Ayar is working for wikipages using ayar unicode.
Ayar Unicode do not to advertise because Ayar is not commercial font.
WordPress need to compatible with GNU General Public License, Version 2. Ayar's License is fully compatible with GNU General Public License, Version 2.
By the way, I'm not, at this time, Ayar's officail member. I work individually.
For further discussion about this unicode issues, come to our translation team's official site http://atp.ayar.co/ .

Elkins looks to expand fire fees
ELKINS – The city of Elkins is looking to expand the fire fee to approximately 2,767 residences outside city limits, bringing in an additional $406,082 of revenue to the Elkins Fire Department.
Elkins City Council has already passed two of the three required readings of the ordinance. The ordinance not only will expand who has to pay the fee, but also will change the way fire fees are assessed.
The current fee is assessed on the basis of square footage of structures. If the ordinance passes, a new flat fee will be implemented.
"The ordinance will be up for a final reading on June 19," City Clerk Sutton Stokes said. "It will change the way fire fees are charged and applies charges to the (Elkins Fire Department's) first due response area."
According to an informational packet obtained at City Hall, the ordinance would charge a flat rate of $100 per owner-occupied home and all other structures consisting of two or fewer living units. Any commercial or industrial structures or rental structures with three or more units will pay five cents per square foot.
Stokes said the city will bring in a total annual revenue of $885,113 if the ordinance is passed. Of that revenue, $479,031 will come from within city limits and the remaining $406,082 from structures within the first due response area, but outside the corporate limits.
The fire department's first due response area includes all of city limits and an area that extends over a large area around the city. A map provided in the information highlights the area, that includes Glenmore, Bowden, Highland Park, Crystal Springs and others areas.
The city budgeted $457,093 in funding to the fire department for the 2013/2014 fiscal year.
"What is interesting about this is that people are going to believe the city will be bringing in all this revenue," Stokes said. "The Rules and Ordinance Committee had to consider if the city could afford it (the extension). The city will have to build out the fire department to provide proper response. The money will be dedicated to the fire department."
According to the informational packet, the new regulations will have advantages and will help solve issues. It states the advantages include: increased professional staffing, an increased number of professional firefighters on each shift, an increased budget for training, equipment and the possibility of reduced insurance premiums outside the city limits.
Without the new extension the fire department can only send 12 firefighters and two engines equipped with 2,000 gallons of water to any call outside the city limits. With the extended fee the entire department – 28 firefighters, all four engines and the aerial truck equipped with a 95-foot ladder and 4,000 gallons of water – can respond to calls.
The extended fee will also help the fire department combat the issue with a decreasing number of volunteers. It states that younger people are not signing up to be volunteers and the expense and time to meet certification requirements are keeping people from volunteering.
The extension will also help stabilize funding for the department. Currently, $100,000 of the department's budget comes from the volunteers' fundraising and from city/state funding. According to the information provided, if the funding is cut or fundraising falls, the fire fee extension would reduce the need for outside funding.
"The people coming in under the fire service fee can be comfortable," Stokes said. "The rate is the same within the city and out. The ordinance contains language that (states) raises in the rates would be for everyone."
The ordinance states the fees can only be raised or lowered if everyone in the fire department's first due response area is included, whether they are inside the city limits or not.
"Everyone will be paying the same," Stokes said. "This type of fee has stood the legal test."
According to Stokes, the city of Bridgeport passed a similar ordinance that was challenged in West Virginia Supreme Court and the law was upheld.
The final reading of the ordinance will be considered during the City Council meeting slated for 7 p.m. Thursday in council chambers at Elkins City Hall. If passed, the new fees will go into effect on July 1, 2015.

Please i don't want to convert from list to set then apply set minus and convert back because it loses its order and repititions.
so i want something that can for example do the following:
list_minus([1,2,4,6,2,1,3,6,2],[7,4,2,5,2]) = [1,6,1,3,6,2]
so it removes repititions from left and order is retained.

1927 Original News Photo - Ruth, Cobb, and Collins
Starting Bid - $200.00 , Sold For - $1,410.00
This is a photo with a story. Although Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb were two of the greatest players in the history of the game, they did not get along personally and waged one of baseball's longest-running and most famous "feuds." However, both players obviously took great pains to hide their animosity towards each other in front of the camera. That fact is evident in this spectacular original photo of the two posing together, along with Eddie Collins, on opening day of the 1927 season at Yankee Stadium. This momentary truce between the two legends took place behind the batting cage prior to the game and the incongruity of the pose is epitomized by the nonplussed expression on Collins' face as he observes their obligatory pre-game handshake. A vintage handwritten pencil notation on the reverse reads "All Star Trio — Ty Cobb — Babe Ruth and Eddie Collins — at Yankee Stadium Opening Day of season — 4/12/27." A "Culver Pictures, Inc." stamp also appears on the reverse. The feud between Ruth and Cobb was fueled by Cobb's jealousy of Ruth's fame during the early 1920s. Cobb disdained the advent of the "live" ball and the new "home run" hitters it produced, and he especially hated all the attention Ruth was getting as he broke record after record. This photo captures the pair at the polar opposites of their respective careers. Ruth was about to embark on the greatest season ever enjoyed by a player, while Cobb was just one year short of retirement. Although individual photos of Ruth and Cobb, are plentiful, those picturing them together are extremely rare. This is one of the finest examples we have ever seen, especially with regard to photographic quality and appearance. The photo (8 x 10 inches) displays exceptional clarity and contrast, and is in apparent Near Mint condition. Matted and framed to total dimensions of 12.5 x 14.5 inches. A color copy of the photo's reverse accompanies. Reserve $200. Estimate $400/$800. SOLD FOR $1,410.00

Interesting from Josh Ezekowitz on Stats GMs versus former player GMs: "Of course, none of the scouts who've won NBA titles as GMs would be described as dilettantes masquerading as having advanced degrees in the game of basketball. The war between old-school basketball guys and new-school analytics guys in front offices is largely a fiction, a product of a shift in the way general managers are being hired in the league. While it is too early to assess the tenures of Hennigan, McDonough and other young GMs, and indeed too early to assess the full impact of advanced metrics on the NBA, it is clear that, on average, former NBA players do not have some magical insight that makes them better GMs."
Tim MacMahon of ESPN Dallas: "For most of the season, it appeared that the Mavs would simply have to make the playoffs to avoid having a top-20 pick because the East was so inferior. However, the Bulls and Raptors have both pulled even with the Mavs in the loss column with 46-32 records. Right now, with the 48-32 Mavs sitting in eighth place in the West, they would get the No. 21 pick and give it to the Thunder. But, like their fight for a playoff spot, their hopes of staying out of the top 20 could go down to the wire."
A 2007 redraft has, brace yourselves, Kevin Durant going No. 1.
Per ESPN Stats and Info: "Kevin Durant is on pace to be 1st player to avg at least 32 pts, 7 reb and 5 ast in a single season since Michael Jordan in 1988-89."
Scott Brooks on if he'll rest KD: "It's nothing that I've talked about and worried about. Fatigue is not an issue with our group," Brooks said. "His minutes are right at 38 to 39 minutes a game. During this stretch, we've had eight games in 12 nights so there's some time off that we give in practice and shootaround. We're talking 39 minutes of your day. I think he can handle that at age 25."
Jason Dufner rocked some KD VIs yesterday at The Masters. And he shocked an eight-over 80.
Anthony Slater: "Adams remains a work in progress, an athletic 7-footer still trying to hone his raw skills. And Roberson's lack of an outside shot can disrupt offensive flow. But when surrounded by superstar scorers, the weaknesses can be masked and the strengths shine through. And because of that, the Thunder won at a steady enough rate to maintain one of the league's best records. OKC is 7-3 this season with both rookies in the starting lineup and 9-7 with just one of the two. An impressive rookie season and recent stretch for both Roberson and Adams, where they clearly weren't the stars, but proved to have an early ability to soundly play their roles."

ETF mostly-Powershares test Portfoliation 5 commentsFeb 27, 2011 8:05 PMBeginning on April 22, 2009
I'd set up a paper portfolio - added XPH by selling PDP in August 2010 for balance.
(So it is not wholly Powershares from Direxion)
PDP Powershares DWA Technical Leaders
PFM ditto Dividend Acheivers
PIV (renamed from Value Line(tm) - S&P 500 high quality - same difference.)
PWC Dynamic market - Intellidex's
XPH SPDR Pharma.
Yahoo Finance claims the initial $2500 play money times 4 is now at:
$16,250 (with $866 of PDP -> XPH growing to drug value of $955)
of which cash unassigned is $878. Leading me to believe Yahoo thinks it's pretend money too.
Discounting errors like that, each ETF is up about 50%, except the one up 80% and the drug one, up less over a shorter period (and smaller portion).
Needless to say, this is annoyingly better than a real life portfolio of stock picks!

WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama has proposed a $3.73 trillion budget for 2012, which contains a blueprint to shave $1.1 trillion off the deficit over 10 years.
However, this year's deficit alone is expected to top $1.65 trillion.
In response, tough-talking Tea Party types and Republicans keep asking the question that House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, posed on NBC's "Meet the Press," Sunday, Feb. 13.
"When are we going to get serious about cutting spending?" Boehner asked.
After those Republicans promised to chop $100 billion from the government budget right away, GOP leaders have come up with just $61 billion in real cuts for this year.
"What's being proposed by the House leadership just isn't enough," said Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., himself a Tea Party favorite. Rand pointed out that that amount doesn't even scratch the deficit.
Paul himself has proposed $500 billion in cuts, still only a small chunk of the overall budget total.
"It really is literally only a third of one year's deficit. It is a modest proposal," he said. "But to people around here, it's incredibly dramatic."
"It reminds me of what Reagan once said. 'The closest thing to eternal life we see on this planet is a government program,'" Seton Motley, president of Less Government, told CBN News.
If politicians want to get really serious about cuts, federal spending experts like Motley and Chris Edwards, director of tax policy studies at the CATO Institute, have two separate plans already laid out.
Edwards has written a "bible" for deficit hawks titled, Downsizing the Federal Government. He is also constantly updating his proposed cuts on his website, downsizinggovernment.org.
Eliminate Fed Departments
Both men would eliminate entire federal departments.
"My official rule for that is any department that was created after 1800 probably shouldn't exist because the Founding Fathers knew what they wanted the federal government to do and they put it there," Motley explained.
By "there," he means in the U.S. Constitution. Both men question whether any program or department is constitutional and whether the state or local governments or private sector could do the job better.
For starters, both analysts would cut the U.S. Department of Education.
"It was created in 1979 by Jimmy Carter as a payoff to the teachers' unions," Motley said.
Edwards said the Education Department certainly hasn't improved test scores for America's students or moved them up the scale when compared against student test scores from other nations.
"They've probably strangled state and local governments with so much bureaucracy and regulations, it's probably hurt our test scores," he explained.
"To give you a counter-example to the United States, Canada ranks at the top of these international test score comparisons. It has no federal department of education at all," he said.
Another big target for both men is the Department of Agriculture.
"I think we were farming long before we had an Agriculture Department," Motley said.
Edwards pointed out that while the number of farmers has gone down 90 percent, the number of department employees has gone up 5,000 percent.
"A century ago we had about 2,000 people in the Department of Agriculture and we had something like 10 million farmers. Today, the ratio's sort of gone in reverse," he explained. "We've got 100,000 people in the Department of Agriculture and really only about a million or so farmers left."
"We were an agrarian society when the Founding Fathers founded us. If they didn't think we needed a Department of Agriculture, we certainly don't need one now," Motley agreed.
Edwards and Motley would also cut the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Edwards pointed out the agency gives homeowners $50 billion in subsidies each year.
"Housing subsidies caused real damage here. They helped over-expand and create a housing bubble, then the housing bubble crashed; damaged the whole economy," he explained.
Both men would also cut most federal tax dollars spent on the Commerce Department, and agencies dealing with land management, environmental protection, transportation and health, They contend that states or the private sector could handle all of these better.
"You've got Commerce, Interior, HUD, HHS, EPA, Education; that's a decent start," Motley said as he looked at his kill list.
They would also say goodbye to tax dollars for the National Endowment of the Arts and the Public Broadcasting System, saying its time is past.
"Government broadcasting is sort of like a symbol of banana republics," Edwards said.
American Voters Want Cuts
Sen. Paul said voters are ready, even eager, for such cuts to their government.
"Many of the voters won't accept anything less from us," he said. "They'll bring us back home if we're not bold because that's what they want."
One federal function many conservatives won't touch is the Department of Defense, for fear of looking weak on national security.
But Edwards' CATO Institute has proposed 19 big cuts he says wouldn't harm combat capability while at the same time, "would shrink the defense budget by about a fifth by 2020."
Motley said the military is "To kill people and break things. And beyond that, there's going to be waste, fraud, and abuse. Let's deal with that, too."
Edwards would save billions by shrinking the military's mission, which has grown so large that America's armed forces are bigger than all the rest of the world's combined.
"We're sort of the world's policeman, and we shouldn't be," Edwards insisted. "We should defend the United States."
He would also wipe out all foreign aid.
"A lot of the foreign aid money just goes to prop up corrupt government. That makes no sense at all," he said.
No Sacred Cows as Policy?
Motley and Edwards believe the new breed of Tea Party-backed lawmakers, like Sen. Paul, would chop both to the left and right, conservative and liberal favorites.
"They don't think any program is sort of a sacred cow," Edwards said.
They may be serious enough to truly reform the entitlement programs that are about to drown America in red ink.
"I'm tired of hearing that programs like Social Security and Medicare are a success when they're billions and billions and billions of dollars in the red," Motley complained.
"Only in Washington can something that's hemorrhaging cash, to the degree that Social Security and Medicare are, be viewed as a success," he continued.
"The current system is unsustainable," Edwards said.
Both men would slash federal pay as well.
"The average federal worker earned a $120,000 in wages and benefits in 2010. That's exactly double what the average private sector worker gets," Edwards pointed out.
Those who work in government may feel these types of cuts are too deep and too painful, but Sen. Paul insists they're good for the rest of America.
"If you shrink the government sector and you're in the government sector, there's pain. But the private sector expands," he argued.
"Money is better spent," he continued. "There's a more efficient use of dollars, and more profit and more wealth are created by the private sector than the public sector."
All together, Edwards' cuts would save $1 trillion a year.
"That would be cutting about a fifth of all federal spending over the next nine years," he said. "I think that's completely doable."
Motley's cuts would be much bigger.
"You're talking about 60, 70, 80 percent of the federal budget per annum," he explained.
Sen. Paul mocked those who are outraged over cuts.
"Everybody always wants to talk about 'Oh no, you're going to cut this!' Well, the alternative may be chaos if we don't get our debt under control," he said.
Edwards insisted if the U.S. government won't make huge, massive cuts that "the only other alternative is for Americans to get a massive tax hike like they've never seen in their history."
Some economists figure those taxes will have to be in the neighborhood of 55 to 65 cents of every dollar Americans earn.

I have a quick question regarding BC Sets activation.
Why should we activate them again as they already exist in the system and tables are populated with entries.What purpose does it achieve by activating the BC Sets.
The reason for above is I am setting up my Production system and see that all BC sets are available and so was wondering should I really transport the BC sets activation from my Dev system.
Hello Uday,
This is a general question about BC Sets. You'll find information about BC Sets here:
There was a similar question in the forums about BC Sets in 5.3
With the BC activation you load the "template customizing". This step is required as per the installation guide. If you've already performed changes in a system and you activate the BC you could loss data.
Thanks Diego.As it doesn't allow the activation in production I will transport them over from my dev system.
I was also wondering if there is some way to check for the BC Sets in Production i.e.if the activation was successful as I had moved all BC Sets activation from my dev system via transport today.Just concerned as these are important components and am in production and want to make sure the activation was alright.
Hi Uday,
In your customizing system you can check for the activation log. In your production system you should check the transport log. Do you have RC=0? do you have any warnings /errors in the transport log?.
If all is fine, the activation in production was successfully performed.
Hello Diego,
I tried transporting the BC set transport request created in Development system into our QA system and it ended with an error RC = 8
When i checked the transport log it showed me the following error :
It shows error below this line
start import R3TRCDATVC_GRFN_MSMP_WORKFLOW
1 duplicate key error during insert into table GRFNMWCNRULEID occured
End import R3TRCDATVC_GRFN_MSMP_WORKFLOW (with warnings)
Further logs showed
1 entry for GRFNMWCNRRESLT merged (400EIFGRAC_USERACCRVW_INITIATOR GRAC_DEFAULT_RESULT); as part of view V_GRFNMW_ACRES
E071-LOCKFLAGs 000018 - 000036 updated ('2', 19 entries).
102792 32436212
When i checked if BC set was activated or not
BC Set: GRAC_ACCESS_REQUEST_APPL_MAPPING it said
Has the BC Set already been activated in the current client? No
Along with the following comment
GRACAPPLMAPPING Checked activation of data for object GRACAPPLMAPPING not allowed for techn. resons
I also did the "Key Conflict Check" in GRD & GRQ but it said "There are no Key conflicts"
I also compared the Table: GRFNMWCNRULEID in GRD it contained 68 values ( 7 of which are custom rules e.g) custom agent , custom initiator)
whereas in GRQ it showed 61 values (all standard agents, initiator agents etc)
Should i manually "activate" this BC set in QA system ?? or How can i fix this error ??
Thanks in advance.
Hello Victor,
When i checked if BC set was activated or not
BC Set: GRAC_ACCESS_REQUEST_APPL_MAPPING it said
Has the BC Set already been activated in the current client? No
If you've used the transport procedure, you won't see nothing there. I've asked the same question to the support team time ago.
Regarding your transport, looks that there's something wrong. Have you performed configurations in your QA system before the transport?... you should transport BEFORE doing any kind of configuration.
If the problem persist, I advise you to contact SAP Support.
Hello Diego,
Thank you for the reply !!
I did not do any configuration !! I just did client copy from 000 to new client 400.
I am very surprised by this error.
A similar error was seen when I transported the Request : Activate MSMP for AC.
Approx 75 other Transports have gone successful except for these two.
The good thing right now is I am able to submit a new request in GRC & the workflow is getting triggered.
May be during production activities i will not import these two activities and will do it manually !!
Thanks & Regards,
Hi Uday,
In Addition to Diego points, also check if the data is populated in the tables.
I know you checked the data was present before, but not you have transported activated BC sets into production.
If all is there then they are activated.

"On a night drunk with cicadas, the Exterminating Angel came down and dispatched the six in a rough little bar whose tables spilled out onto the pavement and, with a bullet in the forehead of each of them, he punished them for their drunkenness, their 'bender.' And why this time? For what reason? For the ultra-simple reason of existing. That seems very little to you? No, while this life is no bowl of cherries, I've always said and I repeat it here, that the crime does not lie in extinguishing life, but in kindling it: organizing it so that, where there wasn't any pain before, now there is." (71-72)Similar sentiments are repeated throughout, and one could probably even call it the moral of the novel: procreation is a greater sin than murder. Life in Medellín, Colombia's 'capital of hate,' is such that the addition of lives to its population is crueler than any subtraction, even a violent, capricious subtraction. In fact, the idea that violence may be capricious becomes itself remote, unthinkable: violence is a form of currency, and its transactions, whether we might call them impulsive or necessary, are indistinguishable from one another to those involved.
I wouldn't call the novel powerful (I think it's actually rather poorly written—to a purpose, but nevertheless ineffectively), but it is so adamant in this position that one is tempted to accede somewhat, to demur to its apparent authority. Yet its intransigent a- or anti-sociality finds itself frustrated more than it is invigorated by the texture of the book: there is also a strange lack of urgency to the prose which vitiates its anger—again, definitely to a purpose, but again, not effectively. It's written as if Vallejo believed torpor was a simple substitute for energy, and not a different substance entirely. Vallejo somehow means for this torpor to reinforce the book's militant hostility to life, and I suppose other writers have achieved this, but in this case, it simply exists as a separate feeling: the narrator's languidness and his antipathy never really find a common language, and the book teeters between world-weariness and sardonic venom.
There is one moment, though, where these two strands seem to come together, and while they don't entirely fuse and form something new and compelling, they do find a form external to the novel which indulges both the narrator's languor and his acerbity. Fernando is in a morgue:
I continued on to an anteroom. Over and above the weeping of the living and the silence of the dead, the stubborn ra-ta-tat-tat of typewriters: this was Colombia, officious in all its bureaucratic frenzy, its mountains of paperwork, its red tape, drawing up official reports of autopsies, of entrances and exits, solicitous, industrious, diligent, with its unredeemed penpusher's soul. My invisible man's eyes lighted on the 'Observations' they'd left on a desk about the removal of a body: 'The apparent motive was to steal the victim's trainers,' it said, 'but of the real facts and the authors of the crime nothing is known.' And it went on to speak of wounds to the vena cava and cardio-respiratory arrest after the hypovolemic shock caused by a wound from a sharp instrument. I loved the language. The precision of the words, the conviction of the style… The best writers in Colombia are judges and their clerks, and there's no better novel than a court summary. (128)Of course one recognizes a similar feeling (and perhaps a similar envy) in Bolaño and Horacio Castellanos Moya, perhaps even Sebald, although Vallejo is more intentionally perverse about it. (Well, maybe not more so than Moya.)
But I think it is very strange how an author like Vallejo who is completely uninterested in objectivity, much less in something like "the truth" could be so enchanted by the clinical, documentary style of bureaucratic prose. Perhaps it is an act, or perhaps he simply is graciously acknowledging the skill of a competitor in the field of describing misery and death.
But there is also, I think, a sense in which Vallejo deeply wants the state to be what it is in Kafka: a realm of mysterious pointlessness, so enfolded upon itself that it can absorb all life in its unending and directionless corridors. The tragedy for Vallejo is that it is not: the state is not only complicit with the violence of the drug cartels and the petty assassinations, but it is much less capacious than they are: it is always the government which will be absorbed into the world of the druglords, and not the other way round. Vallejo at the end of the novel turns, very strangely, to the state as a last source of enchantment, reaching toward the purity of bureaucratic prose as a refuge against reality. He's certainly conscious that this is illusory and even stupid, but I'd argue he sees it as less illusory, less stupid, than art, and in it he finds some release. What he cannot reconcile in his own prose, he finds brought together in this cold document. It is a bizarre ending, to say the least, for a novel.
