MILLERSTOWN - Mallory Fortenbaugh and Greenwood created some havoc on Monday night.
The Wildcats pressured East Juniata early and often, forcing the Tigers into turnovers and controlling what was a low-scoring affair. The Wildcats captured the Tri-Valley League girls basketball game, 44-26.
"We just did our full-court, man-to-man press really good and pressured them," Greenwood coach Amy Davidson said. "In the half-court, we just played good man-to-man defense. That's something that we work on every day in practice."

Greenwood's Jesse Sheaffer (31) tries to get the ball around East Juniata's Caitlin Hoover (23) during their Tri-Valley League girls basketball game Monday.
Along with creating turnovers, Greenwood also did another thing that usually leads to success - making free throws.
The Wildcats were 19-of-24 from the line on the night, including Morgan Kauffman's perfect 10-for-10 effort.
"We stress free throws every single day in practice," Davidson said. "We struggle with them every day in practice. It was great to see the hard work really pay off for them."
It was East Juniata that got to the line early on though.
Maddie Trego, who scored a team-high 10 for East Juniata, made two free throws to answer Kauffman's bucket to open the game.
Megan Graybill followed by going 1-for-2 from the line to give East Juniata its first and only lead of the game at 3-2.
"It comes down to accountability," East Juniata coach Travis Quici said. "No one is being accountable. Tonight it was a total lack of effort. Hats off to Greenwood though. They played a heck of a game."
Fortenbaugh took over from there.
She made two free throws, then got a steal, a basket and was fouled, and went to the line for another free throw.
After making another steal, she added another bucket.
All and all, it was seven points, three steals and a rebound in a one minute 24 second stretch for Fortenbaugh that gave Greenwood the quick 9-3 advantage.
"I think that gave her a lot of confidence for the rest of the game," Davidson said. "She's definitely a great player, but any time you get those extra shots, it's a confidence boost."
Trego and Kasi Horning answered with buckets for EJ to make it 9-7 before Hattie Kuhns made two free throws to give Greenwood the 11-7 lead after one quarter.
Greenwood opened the second quarter with a 9-2 run over the quarter's first 4:19.
Kauffman made six of her 10 free throws over that period while Anna Weger added a 3-pointer.
East Juniata cut into the lead with a 6-0 run to end the half and went into the locker room down 20-15.
"We had a nice little run to end the half," Quici said. "We're thinking at the half we're right in it down five. We went seven minutes and scored one point. We can't do that."
The Tigers got no closer the rest of the way as Greenwood came out of the break like gangbusters.
Fortenbaugh's jumper with 2:45 left in the third gave Greenwood a 29-16 lead, its largest of the night.
"That's huge for us," Davidson said. "That's something that we struggled with the past couple of games. We switched up our halftime routine a little bit. We didn't come out and shoot like we usually do. We just tried to come out focused and ready for the second half. I think it was a huge success for us."
Trego made a hook shot for East Juniata to make it 29-19 with 50 seconds to go in the quarter.
Fortenbaugh answered with a buzzer-beating jumper to make it 31-19 after three.
Graybill's basket with less than six minutes left in the fourth cut it back to 10 for the final time.
Greenwood then scored 10 of the game's final 12 points including six straight from Weger.
Fortenbaugh finished with a game-high 13 points, while Kauffman added 12 and Weger contributed 10.
East Juniata took the junior varsity game 32-17.
Greenwood (4-7, 3-3 TVL) will be in action next on Thursday at Millersburg. East Juniata will host Juniata Wednesday.
"These girls have a lot of soul searching to do," East Juniata coach Travis Quici said. "As coaches, we're going to get them in position to score points, but ultimately, they have to do it."

In Life and Death: Pet Cremation Lets Owners Pamper Loved Ones
Humans have long maintained a special relationship with animals. We've put some animals to work and domesticated others and invited them to live in our houses. We regularly treat out pets as if they're a part of the family, letting them sleep in our beds, dressing them in silly outfits, and even feeding them better food than we feed ourselves. Where we go, so too go our pets, even into the afterlife. As what some see as a natural extension, pet cremation has become an option for those looking to memorialize their pet after their death.

Assemblyman Jim Frazier Honors Chuck Billy of Thrash Metal Band Testament
June 6, 2013
Assemblyman Jim Frazier Honors Chuck Billy of Thrash Metal Band Testament
Sacramento, CA – Today Assemblymember Jim Frazier (D-Oakley) honored musician Chuck Billy of Antioch on the State Assembly floor for the positive influence he has made in the Native American community and on the general public.
On January 14, 2013, Chuck Billy earned the distinction as the first Native American entertainer to be permanently featured in the memorabilia display at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Chuck was also among those recognized in the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian's exhibit, Up Where We Belong: Native Musicians in Popular Culture.
"The world of music is inhabited by creative and talented individuals whose work enhances the quality of life for all who are fortunate enough to have entered their sphere of influence," said Jim Frazier. "Not only does Chuck Billy embody all of these admirable qualities, he also personifies the strength and enduring spirit of Native Americans."
Chuck Billy, a descendent of the Pomo Native Americans, was born in Oakland and spent much of his youth on the Hopland Indian Reservation north of San Francisco. He is best known as the vocalist for Testament, where he plays several songs including Trail of Tears, Allegiance, and Native Blood, in honor of his ancestral lineage.

Danville's Eric Dempsey was disappointed about his first half performance, and he wanted to make up for it in the second half and come out with a scorer's mentality. He did just that.
Dempsey scored two second half goals within a six-minute spain to propel Danville to a 3-0 win over Montoursville Saturday afternoon at Balls Mills. With the win Danville will play Lewisburg in the district quarterfinals this week at a time and place to be determined.
"Well in the first half I didn't really play that well," said Dempsey. "The second half I just wanted to score."
Article Photos
Montoursville's Jim McMahon heads the ball as Danville's Wesley Yeich defends on Saturday at Balls Mills Soccer Club.
Dempsey did so twice. His first goal came off a quick free kick from Shayne Riley at 45:49 and his second goal came at 51:30 off a pass from Gage Reber.
Danville's final goal was netted by Derek Kirkner at 71:14.
The Danville offense was very aggressive with short passes and that's exactly what coach Brian Dressler expects from his team.
"That's the way we always play," said Dressler. "We play the short passing, kick combination play, that's our style. We're not gonna kick and run it, we like to keep the ball at our feet and move it quickly."
Dempsey did all the goal-scoring but he had help from his teammates. Riley and Reber did a nice job of setting him up while Brody Mahaffy also played well up front for the Ironmen.
The Danville defense led by Bryson Copenhaver, Wesley Yeich, Tyler Deal and Kyle Knotts held the Montoursville offense to just four shots on goal, all of which came in the second half. Jon Hauck had four saves preserving the shut out.
Even in defeat, Montoursville goalie Sawyer Bressler was possibly the best player on the field Saturday afternoon. Time after time he came up with big saves, no matter where the shots were coming from. Danville had many point blank shots, which Bressler kept out. Bressler ended the night with 11 saves.
"Sawyer is first team PHAC II," said long-time Montoursville coach Rich Marriott. "He's a constant for us and without him we wouldn't be where we were, that's for sure."
The Montoursville offense struggled and couldn't seem to keep control, but one of Montoursville's better goal-scorers, Devin Marriott, has been battling injuries all year and he went down at the 6:54 mark and didn't return.
"When you have one of your best players, that tried to play, could only get seven minutes, we lost him for half the year," said Marriott. "When you're playing a good team like Danville, you can't afford to have your best player out."
Montoursville will lose five key senior starters and they won't be easy to replace.
"We had a nice core of seniors," said Marriott. "Our goalie first team all conference, the other three, Johnny (Rhodes) and Devin and Jim (McMahon) were second team and Austin (Fulton), you know they stuck with the program, they're really a nice group of kids to work with and good leadership."
This just wasn't the seniors final game, it was also Coach Marriott's final game who has been Montoursville's coach for the last 20 years. The lose of Coach Marriott will be just as hard to deal with as is the lose of five seniors.
"You know what its been 20 years and the kids at Montoursville have been amazing," said an emotional Marriott. "And the parents have been amazing and its been a privelage to coach the last 20 years at Montoursville because they have a lot of great kids and parents, it's a classic place to work."
Danville: Eric Dempsey (Shayne Riley), 45:49, Dempsey (Gage Reber), 51:30, Derek Kirkner, 71:14.
Shots on goal: D-13; M- 4. Corner kicks: D-3; M-7. Saves: D-4; M-11. Goalies: Danville (Jon Hauck); Montoursville (Sawyer Bressler).
Records: Danville (13-6). Montoursville (13-6)

As always, Paris was all aflutter during the fall fashion season. But it wasn't so much the hemlines that commanded attention as it was the peregrinations of a certain Christian Dior assistant—namely Princess Stephanie of Monaco. The Princess has been trying on boyfriends like so many ready-to-wear gowns, without, apparently, finding one that fits.
It started last August when the 19-year-old Stephanie discarded a warm, comfortable item—Paul Belmondo, actor Jean-Paul's son, who consoled her in the months after her mother's death—to slip into something more daring: the embrace of Anthony Delon, bad-boy son of actor Alain. Belmondo graciously—if ostentatiously—announced the split in a press release.
Delon, a budding leather manufacturer, proved to be just the thing for September: Stephanie sported his designer leathers and got a short haircut that matched his. But by the end of the month they weren't speaking; she had reportedly caught on to the publicity-hungry Delon's habit of leaking their evening itinerary to the paparazzi.
Then for a spell, it appeared that Stephanie had adopted a racy look, having been linked—socially, at least—to France's Formula One Grand Prix driving champion, Alain Prost. Stephanie was photographed at a race in Monza, Italy where she met the 29-year-old driver and later the two discoed into the night. The handsome, curly-haired Prost is friendly with Stephanie's family, but he can't really be considered a beau: He is married and the father of a child. His interest in Stephanie, Paris Match suggested gallantly, is "paternal."
Stephanie's most recent fashion accessory was dark, handsome Stéphane Labelle, 22, one of Delon's models. Labelle, son of a shoe manufacturer, squired Stephanie on several occasions and then dropped out of the picture.
Remarkably, Stephanie has even been seen unescorted, as she was at a dinner party for her boss, Dior designer Marc Bohan. While older sister Caroline hobnobbed with Rudolf Nureyev and model Marisa Berenson, Stephanie remained on the sidelines and tried uncomfortably to halt the southward progress of her snug, strapless cocktail dress. As ever, journalists took notes. There's one feature that will never be out of fashion for the Monegasque miss: the permanent press.

Frank Gore's last carry in Sunday's Super Bowl XLVII turned into a rumbling 33-yard dash that put his San Francisco 49ers team on the brink of the title-winning touchdown.
The parallels are uncanny. In both situations, head coach Jim Harbaugh never turned to his stud running back thereafter, suddenly shunning his team's massive physical advantage and relying instead on a first-year starting quarterback to daintily finish the job. In 2009, it was clear that California would not have stopped Gerhart, but redshirt freshman Andrew Luck threw two horribly designed passes instead, the last of of which was intercepted to seal the game. Golden Bears 34, Cardinal 28.
History repeated itself in 2013 on a bigger stage. After a slow start, the 49ers were gashing the Ravens to the tune of eight yards per carry in the second half. Defensive bedrock Haloti Ngata, Baltimore's primary run stopper, was out with injury. Yet, after Gore's dominant run had fully exposed the Ravens' defense, Harbaugh never gave No. 21 the ball again. Instead, he took Colin Kaepernick -- making only his tenth career start -- out of his element, dialing up three consecutive low-percentage passing plays that removed San Francisco's biggest strengths from the equation. Ravens 34, 49ers 29: another otherwise spectacular drive left incomplete.
Jim Harbaugh has resurrected Stanford and San Francisco in remarkable fashion. His entire body of work at both Bay Area sites has been spectacular, but an identical flaw has now reared its ugly head at both stops. In the biggest situations, with rivalry games and world championships on the line, Harbaugh's teams have abandoned the ingenuously creative power run at its highest point of success and replaced it with a fearful, sputtering passing plan. Perhaps Harbaugh, a former NFL passer, experienced urges to live vicariously through his quarterbacks in both spots. Or perhaps offensive coordinator Greg Roman, at the helm of both the 2009 and 2013 meltdowns, saw his playcalling suggestions tighten up in both nerve-wracking situations.
Whatever the reason, Harbaugh is the man with the final call as head coach, and he must learn an important adage moving forward to take the next step as a great coach: If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Sunday's final sequence demanded continued creativity, an intelligent mix of run and pass (or the magic option) that capitalized on San Francisco's staggering number of strengths, and not on a suddenly stale passing plan that summoned the team's one weakness. This much is certain: Gore's last touch shouldn't have been his 33-yard carry.
The silver lining: the year after the 2009 Cal debacle, Harbaugh's 2010 Stanford squad was the greatest in school history, going on a 12-1 tear capped by a 40-12 Orange Bowl triumph. A similar 2013 49ers response would put San Francisco in excellent position to return to the Super Bowl.

My friend Aaron texted me this picture on Monday of his lunch: pad Thai from Bangkok Chef in Manoa. The dish consists of fried rice-noodles with egg, chicken, tofu, bean sprouts and chives, all doused with "house pad Thai sauce." He added some hot sauce. For all that food, it costs about $8! Bangkok Chef is one of the best places to pick up lunch due to the obvious value, and the quality is great as well. Everything I've had from their varied menu is delicious. They're also fast, so it's great for take-out but you can also sit down and eat in the small, no-frills dining room.

Niklas Zennström, the Man Who Sold Skype — Twice
Niklas Zennström, 45, the tall and reserved Swede who was one of the founders of Skype, is likely to go to bed tonight sleeping on an undisclosed share of $1.19 billion. Not a bad day's work.
In the European firmament of Internet stars, there are few, if any, that shine as brightly as Mr. Zennström (who is a founding member of The Wall Street Journal Europe's Technology Leaders Council).
He has a track record of success, both as an entrepreneur — apart from Skype he also co-founded the Internet file-sharing service KaZaA — and now as an investor with his own venture capital firm, Atomico.
He is one of the few people from this side of the Atlantic that can command a crowd in America. Brent Hoberman, founder of Lastminute.com and now a venture capitalist at ProFounders who knows Mr. Zennström well, said: "I have been at conferences in America where people have boasted 'I got to stand near to Niklas Zennström.'"
(However, not even Mr. Zennström has the Midas touch. His 2007 Internet TV play Joost flopped badly. The plug was eventually pulled in December 2008.)
Perhaps his smartest move came in the first sale of Skype, to the online auction site eBay for $2.6 billion. The clever part was that eBay failed to buy all of the IP, in particular the underlying peer-to-peer technology that as well as driving Skype had powered KaZaA. EBay only purchased a license to the technology.
Some have speculated that Mr. Zennström didn't realize what he had done. "That is complete nonsense," said Mr. Hoberman. "He knew exactly what he was selling. It was a very clever thing he did."
When Skype floundered under eBay's wing, Mr. Zennström was part of the team that bought the company back from eBay in November 2009 for $1.9 billion. Together with his Skype co-founder Janus Friis, he owned 14% of Skype. Today he sold the company for a second time.
Apart from his height, Mr. Zennström's most defining characteristic is perhaps how quiet and understated he is, these are not attributes usually applied to entrepreneurs.
"He is a very thoughtful, very reflective entrepreneur. The difference between Niklas and the other guys is that he is not as public as them," said a friend who wished to remain anonymous. "The thing that defines him is that he is private, does not court public attention. But once he is happy with you, he is a very open and engaging guy.
"But as a investor he is a very focussed. He is fascinated with massive ideas, ideas of a global scale."
His VC firm Atomico has made a wide range of investments, from the French Jolicloud, a rival OS to Windows and iOS, to music service RDIO. He is also an investor in Angry Birds maker Rovio.
Mr. Zennström and his French wife, Catherine, established Zennström Philanthropies in 2007 to support and engage with organizations to stop climate change and to support human rights. He is also a keen yachtsman, taking part in the 2010 Sydney to Hobart race.
Mr. Zennström was unavailable for an interview.

This study, which has been prompted by the evidence of confusion and the divergence of opinion among clinicians and pathologists alike as to the nature of so-called "Paget's disease of the breast," embraces a thorough review of 29 cases1 as well as a review of studies and observations by other investigators of this malady. The origin of this dissension emanates from confusion in regard to the cause and the significance of (and, consequently, the therapy indicated for) "Paget's disease." Here an attempt is made to answer the following questions: 1. What is "Paget's disease of the breast"? 2. Is there any cogent evidence as to its etiologic derivation? 3. How should it be treated? 4. Does the name "Paget's disease," which this malady has come to bear, actually clarify or confuse the picture, and is it, therefore, a justifiable eponym?

The world seems dark because no one speaks up. You feel so alone and have an empty heart. The silence is worse than the words that they speak. Because no one is there to fight off the evil I hear from them and see. They say they know what you go through but the truth is that they don't understand you. It's so quiet not peaceful like they say. Where you can relax and be happy and just think all day. This is the silence where you decay. The words that they speak are who you are. You're marked as a large label and can't be who you are. You might even be a star. The silence is deadly and can make or break you. But all you really want to do is just to be you. Have one person break you free with just a few simple words that can set you free. Once the silence is broken and all is done, you can be you and be whatever you want. You are free to be whatever you choose and now do the same and speak the truth!

August 16 — August 22
Twenty Feet From Stardom
|Sat & Sun
Unless otherwise noted, films begin on Friday and run through the next Thursday.
Producer-director Morgan Neville has crafted several documentaries focusing on some of the most important figures in American music: Sam Phillips, Ray Charles, Johnny Cash, Leiber and Stoller, Burt Bacharach, Brian Wilson, Iggy Pop—it's a long, eclectic list that speaks of Neville's deep respect and admiration for popular music, and his willingness to recognize all contributors to this art, including record producers, songwriters, and performers in a variety of genres. Twenty Feet from Stardom is a rare feature-length, theatrically-released documentary from Neville and interestingly, he uses the larger canvas to tell the stories not of the famous and celebrated, but the unknown and forgotten—the backup singers who gave our cherished musical memories far more texture, emotional depth, style, wit, and sheer fun than most of us even realize. As the film's title suggests, there's also some psychological interest in the stories of these faceless performers: their physical proximity to the "stars" who get all the cheers and adulation from the audience frequently masks how close the backup singers are to the main attraction in terms of talent—in fact, a lot of backup singers are better singers than the more famous, which must make them (and us) wonder what it is that separates the famous from the not-famous. Of course, some stars did do an apprenticeship as backup singers themselves, eventually making that "twenty foot" leap into the spotlight. But many more remain anonymous. Some gain a strong sense of investment in their stars, making them feel obligated to help others look and sound great; some having gotten as close to fame as they ever want to get, see the bad as well as the good from observing the stars they've supported; and others have had to adjust their childhood dreams to accommodate the diminished reality of where they are in the music industry. These are all fascinating stories, and their emotions are really not just exclusive to entertainment: who among us hasn't occasionally felt unrecognized at work? (If we're lucky, maybe we get some satisfaction in a job well done, or we feel content just knowing how important we are even without the public acknowledgment). If Twenty Feet from Stardom were only a tapestry of stories about the "music biz" from insiders with a unique and untapped perspective, it would be highly entertaining, informative, and a much-needed corrective to the notion that popular music isn't a collaborative art and that a small number of "greats" hold a monopoly on talent, dedication, and genuine artistry. But Neville's fascinating documentary is even more: it becomes an oral history of the development of rock and roll, the American civil rights movement, and women's liberation (backup singing has been a career predominantly for female performers). The stories are engaging and dramatize the inherent tension of the backup singer's role: the conflicting desires for fame versus anonymity, wanting to be in the spotlight while enjoying the safety of staying behind the star. Backup singing even becomes a rather graceful metaphor for the problem of choosing to support that to which we're politically or morally opposed; this is most explicit when African-American singer Merry Clayton talks about why she decided to sing backup on "Sweet Home Alabama," Lynyrd Skynyrd's controversial rebuke to Neil Young's anti-racist "Southern Man." Clayton isn't going to give anyone the satisfaction of not doing a fantastic job singing backup on Lynyrd Skynyrd's Confederate flag-draped ode to the South—that's how she chose to express her political views. And there are other remarkable stories from people whom we quickly realize ought to have been front and center all along—not just because their musical talent makes more famous performers seem feeble, but because they're so articulate, impassioned, and socially aware. "Still waters run deep" as the saying goes, and maybe a lifetime of watching history unfold from just outside the periphery of the limelight has made so many backup singers such excellent observers and reporters of social, political, and cultural change. This is perhaps the ultimate success of the film: viewers might walk in expecting to feel sorry for these often disrespected talents (Mick Jagger bluntly stated that he'd never want to make a living singing backup); but we quickly become impressed by these performers—they don't need pity, and we're the ones who benefit when they get the chance to open up and talk about their experiences. The film also gets across just how difficult it is to make the transition from backup singer to star, and how rare it is when it actually happens. But ultimately, Twenty Feet from Stardom is a celebration of the artistic process: backup singers do far more than sing the "oohs" and "ahs" that sweeten the instrumentation and cover the musical dead spots; these performers often provide the soul of our most enduring, beloved music. Neville's film shows us just where that soul comes from.

The Summerville Dorchester Museum's historic plant sale fundraiser was a couple weeks ago. It was pretty much what you'd expect from a plant sale – gardeners searching for azaleas, camellias, gardenias, that sort of thing. And then there was the lady who walked in with a Victorian hair wreath. Victorian ladies between 1850 and 1875 made wreaths out of the hair of their friends and families, an example of the domestic "fancywork" they showcased in their homes. Chris Ohm, curator and director of the museum, said the woman brought the wreath, made by her great-grandmother, to donate to the museum. It's one of many remarkable artifacts in the tiny building on East Doty Avenue, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. "The museum's collections are astonishing," Ohm said. "There's stuff in here from the 1600's. It's just astonishing because you wouldn't expect that in a little museum." You might not expect a small yellowed pamphlet, published at the behest of the secession convention, titled "Declaration of the Immediate Causes Which Induce and Justify the Secession of South Carolina from the Federal Union; and the Ordinance of Secession." The museum has the original glass negative from the 1880's showing the iconic image of Summerville's downtown square; records accumulated by local attorney Legare Walker, including wills, plats and deeds of title; scrapbooks, aerial photos and planting records from Westvaco; pottery from local Indian tribes; pottery from the Pine Forest Inn; and more, all of the above in storage for the time being. "If we had more space, we could tell more stories," Ohm said. He's been working on a plan with the town to expand the museum into the unused water tank behind the building. He also has dozens of ideas for expanding the museum's work: more school programs, more public displays at the public libraries, more archeology survey work, more walking tours, more time simply being open for people to wander in. All of that, of course, takes money. "There does need to be a certain amount of willingness to pay the bill," he said. Ohm said the museum runs on a shoestring budget: $46,465 in 2012. The town contributes $22,500 from its hospitality taxes, and last year the county increased its contribution to $2,500 after several years of funding it at the $1,000 level. County Councilman David Chinnis, though, said he needs to see a real budget from the museum before he agrees to additional funding. Councilman Larry Hargett raised the issue during the county's budget workshop, telling other council members the museum is in a "dire situation." "I'm not asking for a raise. I'm asking for the museum to stay open," Ohm said. The museum has developed a long-term plan in the last few years to ensure it carries on beyond any one person's term, he said. He doesn't want the fate of the Cuthbert Museum to befall the Summerville Dorchester Museum: Edmund Cuthbert ran a natural history and culture museum in Town Hall from 1959 until the early 1970's. But when Town Hall was torn down to make way for a new building – now the "old" part of the Town Hall complex – the museum ceased to be. For 20 years the town was without a museum, until a committee came together in the early 1990's to retrace Cuthbert's work. It's important to remember the town's and county's history, he said. "There was a time when Charleston was nothing but rubble and Summerville was a resort. … Summerville has its own identity. It always has," Ohm said.

Open source contributors
Who creates open source software?
Unlike proprietary software, open source software is not developed by a single company or group of developers. Instead it is developed by many different companies, thousands of individual developers and hordes of hobbyists.
One of the most significant open source projects is the Gnome desktop, an interface used on most popular releases of Linux including Fedora and Ubuntu. At the most recent Guadec conference, attended by Gnome developers from around the world, the results of the Gnome Census were revealed, offering an insight into how open source projects are developed.

Todd VanDerWerff, in his weekly reviews of the show at The House Next Door, has been talking all season about the possibility that Bill would one day evolve into Roman. That subtext becomes overt as Bill takes Roman's advice about seizing power from God, here by deciding to form his own church. I know Bill's intentions are better than Roman's, and he'll likely never mass the number of followers -- or the body count -- of his father-in-law, but it was still troubling to see him leading the family in the sacrament to launch his church.
And speaking of Roman, while I really hope he's dead for real this time, this show has faked me out one time too many on killing off various Juniper Creek characters (Roman, Alby, Bill's dad) without ever going through with it. Now, Joey seemed to be a lot more thorough than the Greens were when they shot Roman, but still. After the wonderful compound-free detour that was "Come, Ye Saints," the show went very, very heavy on Juniper Creek drama for the rest of the season, and I'm so, so tired of it all. Outside of wanting a bit more backstory on Selma Green (like why Hollis allows her to dress as a man), I'd be happy to never see any of those characters again, and to just deal with the problems Bill and his wives face from the modern world.
I'm also not sure how I feel about Barb inviting Nicki back into the marriage. Yes, she felt bad for Nicki after learning about her daughter, but even that original sin shouldn't absolve Nicki of all the terrible things she's done since joining Barb and Bill's family. I think Chloe Sevigny does a wonderful job of playing Nicki as more than just a caricatured witch, but from Barb's point of view, I don't know that I'd ever allow her back, let alone be the one to bring her back.
What did everybody else think -- about the finale, and about the season as a whole?

Time for a new "Super 6"
Without these tournaments, FRAUDS can get away with being FRAUDS, and talented young prospects can be frozen out.
If it were not for the Super 6, Kessler would probably still be considered the best in the division, Andre Ward would be an unknown etc.
Think about the recent Cotto v Trout fight, the only reason that happened is because everyone thought Trout was rubbish, and he schooled the boy!
These tournaments are great for boxing, all who take part deserve praise because it seperates the men from the boys, Men go in tournaments, boys cherry pick!

I agree. We need more of these Super 6 tournaments across all weight classes.
The bantamweights had their own mini version which is part of the reason why Abner Mares is now on some PFP lists.
The only issue I have is that the original Super 6 took too long. That's why I would make the tournament be single elimination instead of round robin. But some people disagree with me about that.

If this were to happen, they should make it a single or double elimination tourney. No need to see a fighter lose 3 of 4 times. It drags it on too long as well.

The LWW division could have done with a Super 6 in fact it could do with one now. I don't like the way Lucas Matthysse is being messed around and if there was a Super 6 in the LWW division it could not happen.These type of tournaments do the frauds no favors and provide no hiding places and are potential career wreckers for them.

I am trying to build an environment that would contain 4 separate instances
of Bugzilla running on the same server. The environment uses:
* Windows Server 2003 with IIS 6
* ActivePerl 5.8.7
* MySQL 4.1.16
I've been following the instructions at:
I've been attempting to build one instance of Bugzilla at a time. MySQL and
ActivePerl are installed. The required Perl Modules are also installed.
Form there, the steps I've been taking are:
* I'll create the database, grant it all privileges.
* Create a IIS Virtual directory, and configure the CGI settings
* Run checksetup.pl the first time
* Alter the localconfig to point to the correct DB with the username &
* Run checksetup.pl a second time to create the tables in the DB
* configure the Windows security settings on the "data" sub-folder.
* Log in and change the urlbase and cookiebase
However, I am often finding myself receiving an error when I try to create
the additional instances of Bugzilla. When running checksetup.pl for the
second time, I get:
Can't connect to the database.
Error: Access denied for user 'bugsadmin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
Is your database installed and up and running?
Do you have the correct username and password selected in localconfig?
I've confirmed that MySQL is in fact running, and double-checked the
settings I entered for the username, password, and DB name in the
localconfig file. Everything appears OK. Can anyone help me?

Share the stark splendor of an exotic desert world—and some tasty cowboy coffee at Arizona's Organ Pipe Cactus National Park.
By Mary Liz Austin
My husband, Terry, and I have been driving for three days, straight south from the Pacific Northwest. We love snow, but it's time to search for signs of spring and feel sun on our faces.
Our destination is remote Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, a gem tucked away in southern Arizona's vast Sonoran Desert. Thanks to its unique crossroads locale, the monument is home to a wide range of specialized plants and animals, including its namesake.
This stretch of desert marks the northern range of the organ pipe cactus, so it's a rare species in the U.S. With its multiple stems, the cactus resembles an old-fashioned pipe organ, and with a little imagination you can almost hear them serenading the desert. An organ pipe cactus can have up to 100 arms, reach 25 feet in height and live for a century. The cacti bloom from May through June with 3-inch flowers that are pollinated at night by bats and moths.
We start searching for photo locations as soon as we arrive, because it usually takes a few days of persistent scouting to locate the best spots and capture them with best lighting conditions. Driving down Highway 85, the main road into the national monument, we begin to see swaths of blooming brittlebush. It's thrilling to see these 4-foot-tall shrubs covered with bright yellow blossoms.
We pull into a very tight sandy turnout and hike out into the desert in search of good flowering specimens and dramatic views. Soon we lose sight of our truck and are absorbed in the beauty of the spring desert. I'm lost in thought when a gruff voice snaps me out of my reverie.
A patrolling park ranger noticed our truck squeezed into its spot, which is apparently an unauthorized pullout. We're a stone's throw from the Mexican border, and he wonders what we're doing here. After we assure him that we're searching for wildflowers, not people, he warms up considerably. We talk about the park, his job and our travels. Before he leaves, our new friend, Ranger Steve, invites us to his house in the morning for some cowboy coffee.
Still, we decide to stick to the main roads after that. Highway 85 cuts through the monument from north to south. From the visitor center you can take two drives. Both are unpaved but well graded.
The Puerto Blanco drive west of the visitor center is a quick 5 miles to the wildlife-rich potholes of Red Tanks Tinaja and Pinkley Peaks picnic area. Toward the east is the Ajo Mountain loop drive, a beautiful 21-mile desert tour. It's a one-way road with no amenities, so stock up on fuel, water, food and sun protection before you begin. The loop offers amazing views of barrel, saguaro and organ pipe cacti. And in the spring, the desert floor can be filled with such wildflowers as orange poppies and purple lupine. If you keep a keen eye out, you also might also see desert bighorn sheep, deer, coyotes and javelina.
The next morning, after photographing the sunrise, we head to Ranger Steve's house, where a blue enamel coffeepot is boiling on the stove. I have to admit I'm skeptical as I watch him add coffee grounds, two egg shells and a cinnamon stick to the water.
After it has brewed, he hands me a mug, and I consider dumping this crazy concoction into a potted cactus. But after one sip I'm hooked. The flavor—like our experience in this extraordinary desert—is exotic, inviting and utterly unforgettable.

Edit...the choice has been made and set in stone.
Edit...the choice has been made and set in stone.
Why would anyone think this is a surprise!!!!
"As for Plushenko , I believe that this man should be put somehow separately and discuss it separately. Perhaps he's got any in history , he took part in three Olympics. That's 12 years of visual work , plus now he's trying to be on the level. This country is not Russia - Plyuschendiya (laughs). I joke , of course, I say, but it really is presents itself. This man -is a history, a separate unit ."
Kovtun is really overhyped, at least what I saw at euros was not impressive, besides the jumps I mean, that happened not to be impresssive too. What was good was his music that carried you away and I dont know what Tarasova was thinking because he is not that matured or aged for this piece. I think they did not let him develop at his own pace.He was lost even before he started.
There is a case Plushenko might crumble under pressure too but going by the odds here he maybe not, and it is huge boost, look at Tatiana and Maxim and how they are messed up. I dont know how you can love figure skating and wish Plush falls all over the place. I certainly didnt wish Kovtun to fall and gave a cheering SO to both Voronov and Menshov. Especially Menshov and his awesome Lp!
Nobody of the three guarantees a team Gold for Russia anyway, and maybe not even Plush. If he manages to have a Euros 2012 skate with one quad (I hope he does just that really) it will be enough for the team, super Javier had almost the same marks on Saturday. If they send him I think it will be a great Olympic moment. In Euros I met so many people travelling to see Plush and Joubs last Euro skate I was almost shocked. And the love Jouby got from the crowd was amazing, I found it a great highlight of Euros!

I am very interested to see how he skates in Sochi actually. The pressure has never been off of him like it is now; in the previous three Olympics he was either the co-favorite or only favorite for gold. No one is expecting a medal from him so hopefully he can take advantage of that and skate his best.
I disagree - I think there is more pressure on him now than ever. He hasn't been competing hardly at all for 4 years, he's had surgeries, his body is put together with bubble gum and toothpicks and it's apparent (at least to me) that Russia is looking for him to do big things because he's the great Plushenko. It would be hard enough if he were in great physical shape, a few years younger, and had been competing regularly. But I do think the expectations for him to perform by his country and many people who remember him at his peak is pretty tough!!! I think it would have been better to use his name and his voice to advertise the games, etc. And athletes always think they have that one great skate or one great game left in them. I just hope he doesn't get injured.
I cant believe he has the heart too deny a younger skater an olympic experience when he has plenty And is not as good as he used too be If he gets accurate pcs he should be way down there and he has no chance medaling whatsoever what a boring aspect of the olympics he will be... the most overscored boooring skater ever im gonna change the channel when hes gonna skate. Poor kovtun and voronov who were both soo much deserving than this!! The guy hasent even skated internationaly this season, except for a lame senior B

On April 26, 2013, CTU was awarded first place honors at the 7th Annual National Security Innovation Competition presented by the National Homeland Defense Foundation. The award was presented by Fred Mooney of the Rocky Mountain chapter of the Armed Forces Communications and Electronics Association (AFCEA) and LTG Ed Anderson of the National Homeland Defense Foundation (NHDF). The project, titled A Novel Method to Detect the Zero-day Variant Malware and its Application on Mobile Devices, was developed and presented by students Kelly Hughes and Scott Melton under the advisement of Dr. Yanzhen Qu. It was conceived as a result of Hughes' doctoral dissertation. The team developed a new technology that is designed to enhance protection of personal computers and wireless devices from virus attacks that come from malware. Dane Egli, Ph.D., Senior Advisor of National Security Strategies at The Johns Hopkins University and judge for the competition had this to say about the team's presentation: "CTU received my winning vote because it was highly innovative, reflected rigorous analytic methodologies, leveraged the strengths of a systems approach, and contributed significantly to addressing a vexing national security challenge in the 21st Century. The concept not only targets a crucial capability gap in the national security enterprise and defense industry, but it is also a harbinger for future solutions to confront threats and vulnerabilities in cyber networks. The new method proposed to detect harmful variant malware (logistics regression and aggregate signature creation) represents a breakthrough scientific solution to identify and mitigate a destabilizing source of network corruption. Finally, the team made a professional and persuasive presentation that stood out in an impressive field of exploratory submissions from around the country, including the Air Force Academy, West Point, Virginia Tech, University of California-Davis, MIT, and University of Wyoming." In addition to receiving top honors and recognition, the team received a prize award of $10,000. They are in the process of filing a patent for the technology and intend to begin licensing it to software companies. Please join me in congratulating this winning team by sharing your support in the comments below. Robert "Bob" Lally, M.S., University Director of Homeland Security, is responsible for the strategic direction for all security university programs related to homeland. Now a retired naval captain his career spanned 28 years. Bob holds an M.S. in National Security from National War College and a B.S. in Industrial Engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology.

It still serves as a suggestion thread for the project as all of the team members still frequent this thread. (as well as their own private XS forum, and their on XS hosted site and forums.)
Posted 17 September 2004 - 07:44 AM
We also have drafts of our PCB controll panel renderd, they shall be coming soon aswell!
Posted 22 September 2004 - 09:01 AM
Im assuming that that is the PCB that will let you switch between four hard drives?
Will that electonic piece be installed when you buy XI FI? IF not how easy is it to hook up?
Can that part be purchased seperately for install in a custom PC conversion Xbox?
If so when will it be ready? I could use something like that for my PC conversion Xbox.
Will that switching device use standby power so you can select the drive you wish with the system off?
If a button is pushed accidently for another drive with the drive in use (xbox on) will the drive in use be unaffected untill reboot?
i assume 3 out of the 4 drives will be off? This device will allow only the in use drive to be powered?
What other custom electonic surprises should we expect in the future?
Posted 22 September 2004 - 01:58 PM
Because of cost, the switching device will be a seperate board only for those who want it. Main idea is to use standby to switch drives while power is off. It will switch between 4HD and 2DVD's... but also any combination of them to fit your custom setup.
|If a button is pushed accidently for another drive with the drive in use (xbox on) will the drive in use be unaffected untill reboot?
i assume 3 out of the 4 drives will be off? This device will allow only the in use drive to be powered?
Yup, and Yup... we'd have it no other way.
|What other custom electonic surprises should we expect in the future?
Expect the expansion to also have interesting "remote" functions.... .
Posted 22 September 2004 - 04:55 PM
I appreciate the answer so quickly.
Any chance of seeing renders of the switching device?
Im just so hard up for this project to get finished. I have 4 HDD's and a samsung 616t with a MB with 128 meg of ram on it, smartxx chip with lcd screen sitting here begging for XI FI to be finished.
I also have the same set up ready to get put into a custom built PC case. I have yet to start the project because of a few things. First off i want my finished product to look 100% professional. The things holding me back is a easy simple but professional hdd switching solution. A case that can hold a LCD screen (which my custom case does). Custom controller ports (still working on that).
SO XIFI is a solution i am waiting for. AS well as some of the solutions you are coming up with for XIFI, those items might be ripped out of a XIFI for my own custom system, unless those parts are sold seperately.
Keep us all informed, we are all very excited.
I bought a Xpod becuase it was avalable. IT's a nice case, but it's not XIFI, it's just plexi glass and screws so XIFI will be a better solution.

Im heading over to the site, there better be more surprises there..
What other specifics can you give us on this prototype palmore?
Posted 19 October 2004 - 10:53 AM
*really took this down because I went back and read it and it seemed a little too critical of something that is so awesome and dont want to perpetuate a negative tone. Also because team members already saw it. Rock on guys.

The system looks awsome, very pretty.
I do have a few questions..
Is there gonna be a spot for the LCD? Like on the prototype pic. That has always been a delemma about custom cases and using pc cases.
You shoul offer 2 fronts when you order. One cut regular and one cut with the spot for the lcd. I also feel that the crystalfontz lcd is what it should be cut for. The popular model everyone is using is the CFAH2004A Standard Series.
Unless it would be possible to give the model of the LCD your are using when you order and have differnt case front custom cut for each order, if a customer is using a LCD. I know i will be using a LCD.
ALso I didn't see the drive switching mechanism. I know palmore, you are using that cutom switcher built for you on your terabox project. I was curious if there was something else being built or do you plan on using the same design as the terraproject swticher. I also dont see how you determin what dvd drive you use. On the video I saw the Xbox Dvd drive open, but i did not see what determins what drive is in use? Are both drives activie at the same time. ( i figure you would use the second drives eject button to open it) but are the drives active at the same time? Is there a mechanism that determins what drive you want to use?
Also, how does 4 HDD's and 2 dvd roms all plug into one xbox motherboard?
Is there a custom piece that comes with it?
IS there a custom IDE cable?
Still many question and Ideas for this project.

Learning from NEPA: Some Guidelines for Responsible Federal Risk Legislation
Celia Campbell-Mohn
Vermont Law School
John S. Applegate
Indiana University Maurer School of Law
Harvard Environmental Law Review, Vol. 23, p. 93, 1999
The past three or more Congresses have seen substantial efforts to enact "risk reform" legislation that would require environmental, health, and safety regulations to be adopted following the performance of risk assessments modeled on quantitative risk assessment methods for carcinogens. While such a requirement has potentially beneficial effects on the quality of the resulting rules, there is also a substantial potential for mischief by reorienting substantive environmental, health, and safety regulation, and by introducing substantial new costs and delays into the regulatory process. This article, which is derived from a report by the authors to support an American Bar Association recommendation on risk legislation, presents eight guidelines that ought to be followed by such legislation were it to be adopted. The article also draws on the experience with the National Environmental Policy Act. Environmental impact statements are analogous to risk assessments in many (heretofore unrecognized) respects, especially the importance of distinguishing between a procedural, analytical tool for decisionmaking and a substantive, result-determinative element of rulemaking.

Jeremy Cothran of The Star-Ledger puts the Mets' recent surge to first place in a little perspective:
Can you believe it was only a month ago when nearly every Mets loss sounded the doomsday alarm? Think back when former manager Willie Randolph's job lived and died on every game. Or when outsiders labeled the Mets as the National League's most transparent team: great on paper, but guilty perhaps of tawdry construction. Everybody exhale. Those days appear over.
Tonight the Mets take on the Phillies in the first of a three-game series at Shea. As both teams are tied for first in the NL East, somebody is going to be trailing come Thursday evening.
In today's Star-Ledger, Mets manager Jerry Manuel says:
""You'd love to always go to the whip, but this is a time to be in position. And we're in a good position. We're in a very good position. We just have to take advantage of that."The Star-Ledger also analyzes Johan Santana, tonight's Mets' starter, in big games. In today's New York Times,Santana (8-7), who starts against the Phillies' Joe Blanton (5-12), says he understands the importance of this series:
"That's what I'm here for, these kind of games," he said. "We put ourselves in this situation and that's where we want to be."Remember that Blanton pitched well vs. the Mets last season when Blanton was with Oakland.
From today's Daily News:
Blanton had a great outing at Shea - eight scoreless innings. In fact, Blanton has tossed 15 scoreless innings over two starts against the Mets, though he received a no-decision on June 23, 2007. The Mets beat Oakland, 1-0, on a game-ending double by David Wright off reliever Santiago Casilla that scored Ramon Castro.In dramatic fashion, Mets third baseman David Wright told the New York Post:
"This is all you can ask for, is to control your own destiny," third baseman David Wright David Wright said. "Everything you want to accomplish is right there in front of us. We just have to go out there and grab it."Make your series predictions now.

Independence Golf Club Gets New Owner & Starts Renovation Plans
Independence Golf Club, the former home of the Virginia State Golf Association, has been purchased by Richmond-based sports-marketing firm, Pros, Incorporated.
Independence Golf Club
Opened in 2001, the daily-fee course is in need of design upgrades, turf refurbishment and operational adjustments. The new owner has hired Richmond-based golf architect, Lester George, to make changes to the course, originally designed by Tom Fazio. Marvin "Vinny" Giles, a notable Virginia amateur, will lend his input on the project.
The course renovation will add strategic options and visual appeal. George Golf Design's master plan will incorporate modifications to the 18 hole layout, practice facilities, short course and driving range. Sustainability of maintenance, turf quality and operational efficiencies are part of the plan, with the goal to create a course for all skill levels.
"Lester George is one of the finest architects in the world - and a good friend. One of his great skills is developing a strategy for the golf course and then developing and executing a plan that is in the best interest of the project," said Giff Breed, principal at Pros Inc.
In addition to course upgrades, Breed wants to expand Independence Golf Club into a multi-purpose recreation and entertainment venue. Breed continued, "Our feeling is that golf courses need to be more than just golf courses. With the help of partners, we are very excited and look forward to developing Independence into a center for golf and other cultural activities."
"I am excited to be a part of this project," noted George. "I have known Giff Breed for many years and look forward to helping him realize his vision for this property. Of course I am also looking forward to working again with Vinny Giles, Virginia's greatest amateur player."
The renovation will be conducted in phases, with the first involving the redesign of bunkers, re-grassing all 18 fairways, and the conversion of the greens to Champion Bermudagrass.

Metoclopramide antagonizes the effect of dopamine in the central nervous system and other organ systems. Metoclopramide's effect on the medullary chemoreceptor trigger zone makes it useful as a routine anti-emetic and in preventing vomiting induced by antineoplastic drugs, particularly cisplatin. Metoclopramide's gastrointestinal smooth muscle stimulatory effects are related to its ability to antagonize the inhibitory neurotransmitter, dopamine; to augment acetylcholine release and sensitize the muscarinic receptors of the gastrointestinal smooth muscle; and to coordinate gastric-pyloric-small intestinal motor function. The indications for which metoclopramide is approved in the United States are reviewed. Adverse effects, which may occur in up to 20%

(NYSE:VALE), Barrick Gold (NYSE:ABX), Baidu (NASDAQ:BIDU), Research in Motion (RIMM), Cognizant Technlogy (NASDAQ:CTSH), Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX), and Agrium (AGU). The Screener setup was as follows:
Apple (AAPL) has been dogged in its defense of $330 support. What had looked a bearish head-and-shoulder pattern has evolved into a more neutral consolidation. But $330 support is a battleline. Note the fast arriving 200-day MA, currently at $320, to help offer support if needed.
Vale S.A. (VALE) delivered on its bearish head-and-shoulder pattern. It sliced $31 relatively easily, then struggled in a rally to break above this price. The past couple of days have produced a "Death Cross" between its 50-day and 200-day MA, a sign a longer term downtrend is now in play. The fundamentals keep it in the screen, but price action is weak.
Barrick Gold (ABX) collapsed from a high of $55.74 on April 21st to a low of $45.01 on May 13th, cutting through both 50-day and 200-day MAs with relative ease. The May low marked a new reaction low for the year, undercutting the $46 bottom from January. A new lower higher (on this rally) will kick start a new downward trend for the stock. The past week has seen a modest rally, but the stock has it all to do to mount a comeback. First up is the 200-day MA sitting overhead at $49.07.
Baidu (BIDU) is one of the rally stalwarts in recent months, but it too has its struggles. The stock lost support of its 50-day MA on May 13th and was rebuffed at this moving average following a rally on May 20th. A similar event played out in December 2010 and the stock was able to recover. Two levels of support are key here: $130 in the short term with a second, stronger tier, around $120.
When the overall market floundered, Research in Motion (RIMM) was already in the mire. The past few weeks haven't changed anything. The stock is down at September 2010 lows ($42.84) and is well away from its 200-day MA at $52.97. Back in February 2011 the stock traded at high of $70.54.
Cognizant Technology (CTSH) is another high flyer for the past year. Early May saw the stock gap below its 50-day MA and then drift lower. It's currently trading just above its 200-day MA at $70.83. The sizable gap breakdown (on volume) will be a point of supply on the next advance, but value buyers may be tempted to take a look here.
Netflix (NFLX) has the best looking chart of the eight stocks. The stock is currently pressuring $250 resistance. Any existing shorts will be squeezed by buyers on the advancing 50-day MA (at $235.20). It's a relatively straightforward risk:reward play; buyers will take a heavier volume (at least double a 2-month average of volume) close above $250, stop on a loss of $225.
Finally, Agrium (AGU) sneaks in at eighth spot. The chart isn't looking too great. The stock lost support of its 200-day MA in early May and hasn't made any serious attempt to regain it. There is an area of support around $78, but beyond that there isn't a whole lot until you get to $50. Not a stock you would want to bet the house on.
