Kate Bosworth Calls Michael Polish 'My Fiancé'
In an online travel blog for Vogue, the actress appears to have leaked the news that the pair are engaged.
"On our first day in Seoul, my fiancé, Michael Polish, and I venture out to discover Changdeokgung Palace," writes Bosworth.
She says nothing more about their romantic status, but does go on to describe exploring ancient towers, pavilions and beautiful secret gardens.
Bosworth, 29, was first spotted stepping out with Polish at a Coldplay concert in August 2011 in Los Angeles. They've since been seen at a number of events and hotspots.
Polish, 41, directed Bosworth in the upcoming film Big Sur about Jack Kerouac's three brief trips to a cabin on the Northern California coast.

SAN ANTONIO - Eating a lot of fat, especially the kind that's in cookies and pastries, can significantly raise the risk of stroke for women older than 50, a new study finds.
We already know that diets rich in fat, particularly artery-clogging trans fat, are bad for the heart and the waistline.
The new study is the largest to look at stroke risk in women and across all types of fat. It showed a clear trend: Those who ate the most fat had a 44 percent higher risk of the most common type of stroke compared with those who ate the least.
"It's a tremendous increase that is potentially avoidable," said Dr. Emil Matarese, stroke chief at St. Mary Medical Center in Langhorne, Penn.
NEW ORLEANS - A former police lieutenant pleaded guilty Wednesday to conspiring to obstruct justice after federal officials say he helped cover for officers who killed two people on a bridge in the chaos that followed Hurricane Katrina.
Federal investigators say former Lt. Michael Lohman knew that two people shot to death as they crossed the Danziger Bridge had no weapons, but he and others filed false reports to make the shootings seem justified. Four other people were wounded.

About posting in article directory
Hello, everyone. My name is Christina. I am a Russian lady, and a beginner of SEO .
3 basic questions.
1)I would like to post an article in 100 article directories with my website link.
My question is : can I post a same article in 100 different kind of article directories?
Or is it better to compose 10 different kind of article with same back link for 10 different kind of articles directories?
2) I have 1 month old, 1 year old, and 3 years old website without any backlinks.
I heard that if one site is built so many back links in a short period, Google will ban this site.
In one day, or in 1 week, how many backlink can I build up without getting a penalty from Google?
3) Concerning keyword density in source code, I learned the best keywords density is 7-10 %.
But in an article , how about the best anchor text density?
When I checked many anchor words (keyword in an article), usually 1.5-2.0%.
Why so small percentage?
Sorry my bad English. I hope you can understr5ahnd my English.
Re: About posting in article directory
I will try to answer all your queries.
SEO is natural process of doing it on a long term basis.

- Full Description
Parsing, also referred to as syntax analysis, has been and continues to be an essential part of computer science and linguistics. Today, parsing techniques are also implemented in a number of other disciplines, including but not limited to, document preparation and conversion, typesetting chemical formulae, and chromosome recognition. This second edition presents new developments and discoveries that have been made in the field. Parsing techniques have grown considerably in importance, both in computational linguistics where such parsers are the only option, and computer science, where advanced compilers often use general CF parsers. Parsing techniques provide a solid basis for compiler construction and contribute to all existing software: enabling Web browsers to analyze HTML pages and PostScript printers to analyze PostScript. Some of the more advanced techniques are used in code generation in compilers and in data compression. In linguistics, the importance of formal grammars was recognized early on, but only recently have the corresponding parsing techniques been applied. Also their importance as general pattern recognizers is slowly being acknowledged. This text Parsing Techniques explores new developments, such as generalized deterministic parsing, linear-time substring parsing, parallel parsing, parsing as intersection, non-canonical methods, and non-Chomsky systems. To provide readers with low-threshold access to the full field of parsing techniques, this new edition uses a two-tiered structure. The basic ideas behind the dozen or so existing parsing techniques are explained in an intuitive and narrative style, and problems are presented at the conclusion of each chapter, allowing the reader to step outside the bounds of the covered material and explore parsing techniques at various levels. The reader is also provided with an extensive annotated bibliography as well as hints and partial solutions to a number of problems. In the bibliography, hundreds of realizations and improvements of parsing techniques are explained in a much terser, yet still informal, style, improving its readability and usability. The reader should have an understanding of algorithmic thinking, especially recursion; however, knowledge of any particular programming language is not required.

ICARDA Implements Decentralized Research for Development Strategy
May 2014: The International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) has implemented a decentralized research for development strategy that builds on ICARDA's partnerships with national agricultural systems in dry areas. ICARDA's program now works through research platforms in Ethiopia, India and Morocco and thematic research sites in Egypt, Sudan and Turkey, each of which focuses on specific agro-ecosystems and livelihood-related priorities. ICARDA also continues its research and services in Jordan and Lebanon.
Through its decentralized research strategy, ICARDA aims "to work more closely with our partner countries and their research teams to support national food security and development strategies and to speed the delivery of science to benefit their smallholder farmers," said Camilla Toulmin, ICARDA Board Chair. ICARDA's Director General, Mahmoud Solh, said the Center now has greater flexibility to adapt to new challenges facing the agro-ecologies of the dry areas, such as climate change.
ICARDA's North African Platform in Morocco focuses on diversification and sustainable intensification of rainfed cereal-based production systems, including integrated pest management. The South Asia Platform in India concentrates on natural resource management (NRM) and food legume systems. The Sub-Saharan Africa Platform in Ethiopia works on integrated crop-livestock systems.
ICARDA's West Asia research program in Jordan builds resilience in marginal lands through integrated crop-rangeland systems and water harvesting. Egypt's thematic research location addresses high-input irrigated agriculture systems, while the Turkey site specializes in wheat diseases. In Sudan, the thematic research location focuses on heat tolerant wheat and food legumes.
ICARDA presented its progress in implementing its strategic decentralization strategy at the 54th Meeting of its Board of Trustees, which took place in Beirut, Lebanon, ICARDA's host country. ICARDA is a part of the CGIAR consortium. [ICARDA Press Release] [ICARDA Press Release on Board Meeting] [ICARDA Regional Programs]

AUSTIN - Texas has the second largest number and second highest rate of children who lack health insurance coverage, according to a report released Thursday by a national health consumer watchdog group.
Ron Pollack, executive director of Families USA, said approximately 11 million children nationwide do not have health insurance, and 1.4 million live in Texas.
Texas trails only California, which has 1.7 million children without medical insurance, Pollack said. Nationally, 15 percent of all children lack medical insurance coverage, but the rate is 24 percent in Texas, which lags only behind Arizona with a 25-percent rate, he said.
California and Arizona have expanded their participation in the federal State Children's Health Insurance Program to fund medical insurance coverage to children in families with incomes up to 200 percent of the federal poverty level - or $27,300 in annual income for a family of three.
Pollack said the debate in Texas focuses on whether the threshold for coverage under CHIP is set at 100 percent or 200 percent of the poverty level.
Currently 29 states - including Florida where Gov. George W. Bush's brother Jeb is governor - extend coverage to families making 200 percent of the poverty level.
"That has become the standard of compassion whether (the states are) led by Democratic governors or Republican governors," Pollack said.
Scott McClellan, a spokesman for the Texas governor, said the governor's current recommendation is that CHIP coverage be extended to families with incomes at or below 150 percent of the poverty level.
"Gov. Bush is working with the Legislature to make sure that insurance is available to more children in a fiscally responsible way," McClellan said.
Rep. Garnet Coleman, D-Houston, said providing state and federal funding through the CHIP program would help reduce county expenditures for indigent care and would lower local property taxes.
Rep. Glen Maxey, D-Austin, said funding the state's share of a program set at 200 percent of the poverty level would cost $151 million a year. He said funding could be available from the state's share of the tobacco settlement.
"Money is not an issue," Maxey said. "It is a matter of political will."
Pollack said 90 percent of Texas children who are uninsured come from families in which one or both parents work. He also said that more than half of uninsured children in Texas are Hispanic.
Clarissa Martinez De Castro, Texas director of the National Council of La Raza, said she is encouraged that Bush reached out to Latinos during his campaign for re-election, but that community wants him to put his bilingual slogan of "together we can" into action.
Texas Democratic Party Chair Molly Beth Malcolm said Democrats want CHIP insurance coverage to be extended to 510,000 children, while Bush's proposal would help only 300,000.
"Unlike the Republicans, Democrats don't believe the health of 200,000 children should be abandoned to presidential politics," Malcolm said.

Plaster and alabaster
Height 86 cm x width 48 cm x depth 42 cm
Museum no. 927-1900
The Alhambra Palace complex was erected between 1325-1333. Various models of the palace were made in the second half of the nineteenth century, many by Don Rafael Contreras, the official Palace restorer. Interest in Moorish architecture and decorative style was stimulated by publications such as Owen Jones' Grammar of Ornament. Here a pavilion has been isolated from the palace courtyard and given a fictitious decorative back wall.

CBNNews.com - JERUSALEM, Israel - After authorizing transfer of armored vehicles, weapons, ammunition and other military equipment to Palestinian Authority (PA) security forces this week, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak said it may all be used against Israel.
In a meeting with US special envoy to Israel, General Jimmy Jones, Barak said efforts to bolster the PA's Fatah government could backfire if Hamas takes over Judea and Samaria (the West Bank).
"We need to keep in mind the possibility that after all we have done, Hamas will take over the West Bank, not only by force but even in the upcoming general elections. This is certainly a possibility," Barak told Jones.
U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice arrives Saturday to continue efforts to push the peace process forward.
While acknowledging the PA's inadequacy in uprooting the terror infrastructure, the US is particularly unhappy with Israel's reticence to remove key checkpoints in Judea and Samaria.
"Both the Americans and the Palestinians understand that if we lift a roadblock and there is an attack, we will fall back instead of moving forward in the negotiations," one Israeli official said.
Meanwhile, Israel is watching the Abbas government weaken while Hamas strengthens its hold in PA-controlled cities in Judea and Samaria. The possibility of a Hamas takeover, as happened in the Gaza Strip, is growing.
Last Sunday, delegations from Fatah and Hamas signed an agreement in Yemen aimed at restoring a coalition unity government.

With the PC market still struggling, it's no shock that Microsoft's (NASDAQ: MSFT ) fiscal fourth-quarter earnings left investors wanting more. Total revenue was $19.9 billion, which translated into net income of $5 billion, or $0.59 per share. A year ago, the company had posted its first net loss as a public company of $492 million, primarily due to the massive aQuantive writedown.
This time around, it was a growing inventory of Surface RT tablets that had to suffer an inventory charge to the tune of $900 million. The Surface RT inventory adjustments hurt Microsoft's bottom line by $0.07 per share. Still, even without the charge, Microsoft would have fallen short of the $0.75 per share consensus estimate that investors were hoping for.
Investors might remember when BlackBerry took a similar charge in 2011 from its glut of unsold PlayBooks. The Canadian company took a $485 million charge just months after launching its seven-inch tablet. Microsoft now feels BlackBerry's pain.
That's nearly $1 billion that Microsoft is eating as a result of slow Surface RT sales, and was the driving factor for the precipitous rise in cost of revenue that subsequently hurt gross margins. Gross profitability fell from 77% a year ago, to 72% last quarter.
Microsoft has made numerous moves so far this year to get Surface RT units moving. In June, the company began offering the device to educational institutions for as little as $199, and subsequently reduced retail prices by $150 this month. That brought the entry-level Surface RT price from $500, to $350.
The company likely decided to go ahead and take the charge early and book it into its fiscal fourth quarter, as it was planning to discount the device.
There were reports last year that Microsoft was hoping to sell 3 million to 5 million units in the fourth quarter alone, ordering up ingredients from component suppliers. Microsoft doesn't disclose unit sales, but IDC pegged the software giant's Surface channel shipments in the fourth quarter at just 900,000.
Regarding Microsoft's ambitions to become a devices-and-services company, the "devices" part of that equation isn't going so well.

So the Republican-led House and Democratic-led Senate failed to set a budget in time for the new fiscal year that began today. The government has gone into an official shutdown mode, which sounds like the end of the world. But it's not.
The U.S government has been furloughed before. Not just once or twice, but 18 times since 1976. There were eight shutdowns in the 1980s, none longer than three days. The last incident totaled 28 days over two segments in 1995 and 1996 after President Bill Clinton vetoed a budget passed by the two Republican houses of Congress.
Here's the good news: None of these shutdowns destroyed the American economy. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI ) has grown more than 16-fold since the first no-budget shutdown, and here's what happened during Clinton's battle with an entirely Republican Congress:
That's right: The market just chugged along without government support. The Dow closed 7% higher by the end of the 1995-1996 showdown, simply carrying out the momentum that was set by a 33% rise in 1995.
They say that it's different this time. The president is building his legacy on the Obamacare health care program, which tea party Republicans want to eliminate. That's the core of this gridlock and everything else is just noise. Neither side looks likely to fold entirely, and compromise has become a four-letter word. So I wouldn't be surprised to see this shutdown last as long as the Clinton impasse, which lingered amid temporary stopgaps until the final budget was signed in April 1996.
But, again, it's not the end of the world -- unless your government paycheck just got stuck in Washington gridlock. The rest of us -- and the stock market -- will do just fine until this storm passes.
What are the biggest winners in a global recovery?
Set the government shutdown aside for a moment to think about the global recovery. With the American markets reaching new highs, investors and pundits alike are skeptical about future growth. They shouldn't be. Many global regions are still stuck in neutral, and their resurgence could result in windfall profits for select companies. A recent Motley Fool report, "3 Strong Buys for a Global Economic Recovery," outlines three companies that could take off when the global economy gains steam. Click here to read the full report!

The DX XD Plus is our Editor`s Pick for best straight to turnover long approach disc. It works best in the 180-240 foot range. They start off just a tad stable and can be used for slight hyzer upshots but break in quickly to become very straight. Later in their lifespan they become a great turnover approach disc. Some players use these as a fast low-profile putter. But it`s real strengths come from the fact that it doesn`t deviate a whole lot off of its flight path(low error ratio-high percentage of success-even on bad releases) and it has the best brakes in the business for straight and turnover upshots. For stable upshots, try the DX Rhyno. The XD tends to come in 2 different plastics - stiff DX and softer putter plastic. We recommend the stiff for stability and durability. We recommend the soft if you want this disc to break-in and turnover quick. Either way, this disc does the job well. If you want a stable version of this, get the CFR Star XD.
The new DX XD Plus has a relaxed grip where the underside has a bit of an angle to it to let it slide off the finger a bit easier.
A little disc history: the XD was originally designed as Innova`s follow-up to the Aviar and was intended to be it`s long-distance cousin. It was originally called the Aviar XD and the XD stood for extra distance. And back then, in the mid-80`s, it was the distance king. It`s been reported that when players first started getting them they were THE MAN on the course. Something akin to how players today feel about the Wraith or the Destroyer. Now its just a humble upshot disc. Chew on that for a while.
These are all 175 grams, maximum weight for the diameter and recommended weight for this type of putter.

text: Explore Sweden Fact file Where to go When to go Getting there Getting around Accommodation Food and drink The media Festivals Sports and outdoor activities Culture and etiquette Travel essentials Share Also known by their Latin name, aurora borealis, the northern lights are visible all across northern Sweden during the dark months of winter. These spectacular displays of green-blue shimmering arcs and waves of light are caused by solar wind, or streams of particles charged by the sun, hitting the atmosphere. The colours are the characteristic hues of different elements when they hit the plasma shield that protects the Earth: blue is nitrogen and yellow-green oxygen. Although the mechanisms which produce the aurora are not completely understood, the displays are generally more impressive the closer you get to the poles – low temperatures are also rumoured to produce some of the most dramatic performances. Gällivare and Kiruna, both well inside the Arctic Circle, are arguably the best places in Sweden to catch a glimpse of the aurora, particularly during the coldest winter months from December to February. Although displays can range from just a few minutes to several hours, the night sky must be clear of cloud to see the northern lights from Earth. Read More

Meet Charlotte
Charlotte was a free spirit who jumped, skipped, and ran to the beat of her own drum. She was boldness, she was mischief, and she was love. Her crazy antics made us laugh daily. Her insight and curiosity always amazed us. We miss her singing loudly with the car radio, hearing her feet always at a run, never at a walk, down the hallway in our home. She was a little girl that loved having her hair in pigtails, "piggies", as she called them. She fought hard every day against the suggestion of wearing a pair of pants. She loved dogs, especially Lily, our yellow Labrador. She was always on the search for a new stuffed dog to add to her collection. Most of all, Charlotte loved her family, whether it was going out for sushi, roasting marshmallows and sharing spooky stories by the firepit, or cuddling in bed reading her favorite books. She was and continues to be our brightest star in the sky.
Charlotte and her passion for Lily, and her extensive stuffed dog collection will be honored in a soon to be released picture book; Good Dogs, Great Listeners The Story of Charlotte, Lily and the Litter by Renata Bowers with JoAnn and Joel Bacon, pictures by Michael Chesworth. Stay tuned for more.

With bees so yellow,
And skies so blue,
Its people so mellow,
I want to show this valley to you.
With the lights so bright,
And trees so tall,
Beautiful stars at night,
I shall show you it all.
Animals so sweet,
And roses so pink,
Sit down and have a treat!
But it will all make you think,
Parks so fun,
It all beats the tally,
There could only be one,

"What I Think About Santa Clarita"
When I look at Santa Clarita, I think that I am so lucky to live in this phenomenal land.
The breathtaking sunsets are like majestic colors dancing in the sky looking so grand.
The rolling hills look like mounds of soft, warm sand, making me smiley happily.
The gorgeous flowers bloom with millions of brilliant colors and luscious green trees.
I adore the summers here when a huge wave of heat hits Santa Clarita. This is the perfect weather for swimming!
In winter, it's warm and never snows. What a perfect place to be living.
The people in this fun and beautiful place are very amiable and kind.
There are many people from different countries, and I love learning about their culture — any facts I can find.
My favorite part about Santa Clarita is my friend's and family's company.
I like learning about the first people to inhabit my home, the Tataviam Indians, and all of their history.
I am so grateful to all of the people who helped make Santa Clarita what it is today.
I love my home, and I never ever want it to be taken away.

"Santa Clarita is awesome!"
This is what I think of Santa Clarita Valley. I think of joy, fun, excitement, and really good entertainment. We also have a good supply of jobs, stores and events. Some events that we do are Relay for Life and the Walk for Cancer. If you like Tae Kwon Do there are plenty of Tae Kwon Do studios and gymnastics studios in town. We also have delicious restaurants to go and eat at. There is a good dog park in Central Park. There also are a lot of playgrounds for kids to go to. We also have many bike trails for people to go to also. I also think Santa Clarita is a very safe community.
According to the 2009 law enforcement reports Santa Clarita is ranked the 40th-safest city nation-wide. There are several cities in California that rank higher than Santa Clarita Valley. Two of the cities are Simi Valley and Irvine. Some people think their city has more things to do than Santa Clarita Valley. This could be a true fact. I have never lived in another city that is on the law enforcement reports so I don't know if this is true.
In my opinion Santa Clarita Valley has many nice people and cultures. There are very beautiful homes that are in our community. It is an excellent place too for children to grow up in. Our communities are also very clean. This is what I think of when I think of Santa Clarita Valley.

"Our Home: The SCV"
Santa Clarita: a place for everyone. The Santa Clarita valley is home to people of numerous ethnicities, religious beliefs, and interests. It is a place where people from Ecuador and people from Alaska are friends, where people who believe in one God and people who believe in 50 gods can have a bond. It is ultimately a melting pot, where the barriers of discrimination are broken and diversity is celebrated.
People from all corners of the world live in our valley. These people select this home because of its safe environment and the wide range of occupations and pastimes that are accessible here. Recreational activities provided in the valley range from playing baseball to taking gymnastics classes. There are many swimming pools, sports complexes, dance studios, and many other pastimes are offered as well. No matter what your hobby is, you can find it here. Also, our schools supply great education. Many of them have become California Distinguished schools and a few are even Blue Ribbon schools. In addition to all of these factors, the Santa Clarita valley boasts many beautiful historical sites. One of these places is Vasquez Rocks — the natural phenomenon that served as a criminal's hideaway. Two others include Rancho Camulos, home of the heroine Ramona in the book of the same name, and the Oak of the Golden Dream, where entangled in its roots, Francisco Lopez dreamed of and discovered gold.
There are also churches and temples of all kinds here. Christian, Catholic, Jewish, Mormon, Islam, and many other faiths co-exist here in the SCV. This also applies to the different ethnicities that make up our population. African-Americans, European-Americans, Asian-Americans and more call this valley their home. They all feel comfortable living with the diversity of people thriving in their neighborhood.
Why is this? Everybody is open-minded and prepared to accept our cultural differences. They are not afraid to be friends with people who are unlike them. Despite our cultural differences, we all get along. Families and friends alike find similarities to discuss and differences to explain. Friendships are formed every day. Teachers form special bonds with students. Students meet other students. Everyone understands everyone else, and people do not judge and are not judged by religion or their background. We do not have to worry about being laughed at because of what we think or where we are from, because many other people share our thoughts and cultures. Every tradition is embraced here. Everyone is welcome in the Santa Clarita Valley, and all of its residents are proud to call it their home.

"Santa Clarita"
When I think of Santa Clarita I think of home, community, and family. To me there is no better place to grow up. The valley has a small-town quality in the sense that you might see the same people every morning at your local Starbucks, or grocery store, yet there isn't that feeling that there is nothing to do. You can always catch the latest movie, or meet your friends at the skate park.
The times I have heard of local crimes are so few that I can count them on one hand. I also like Santa Clarita because of the schools, most of which are honored with the Distinguished School Award.
My school is only a few blocks from my house, at the very top of my neighborhood with the most amazing 360 degree view of the surrounding valley.
Santa Clarita is well-known for offering incredible sports programs to the youth in our community. Several famous athletes have come from Santa Clarita to play for national sports teams, including Kyle Boller, who played for the Baltimore Ravens and the St. Louis Rams, and Matt Moore, who plays for the Carolina Panthers. There are many kids who are offered life-changing opportunities and college scholarships thanks to the many athletic programs.
Santa Clarita wasn't always like the way it is now, filled with parks, restaurants, and shops. Farmland and onion fields were once the norm, and there wasn't much to see other than a neighbor here or there. I know this to be true because my father grew up nearby and when we drive around town he sometimes tells me stories about how there were more people on horseback than there were driving cars. I think it's pretty amazing how the city has changed into such a wonderful place.
I hope that when I am ready to have my own family we will be lucky enough to live in a place just like my hometown, Santa Clarita.

"What Do You Think When You Think of Santa Clarita Valley?"
When I picked up the packet that stated all the instructions to entering this contest, the first thing I looked at was the theme.
"What do you think when you think of Santa Clarita Valley?" it said. Right away, a four-letter word came into mind. Safe.
As of 2003, Santa Clarita valley was ranked the fifth-safest city in the whole United States of America. And as of 2005, we ranked fourth! The population is consistently increasing, yet the crime rate is continually decreasing. When I walk to a restaurant with my friends for lunch, I feel 100% safe. When I have to ask for directions, I don't feel suspicious or wary. In my opinion, the people of Santa Clarita are the ones who make it such a great place. One example of when I was so blissful about living in Santa Clarita Valley was when my car broke down. My car had broken down and we had pulled over to the side of the road. Several people stopped to help, or to simply ask us if they could do anything for us. That simple, "Hey, do you need any help?" made my day.
In fifth grade, I took a field trip to Santa Clarita's City Hall. I can tell you, for a fact, that I considered myself "special" because not everybody had the chance to enter City Hall. We spoke to a lot of the great people who worked there. One thing I remember really liking about them was, they spoke to me like they would to an adult, not a little kid. I remember that the mayor inspired me a lot.
She told us that she ran for mayor before, but did not make it. She told us how she really felt. She didn't sugar-coat it. She told us that she felt like giving up, but she didn't. She ran again and she was the new mayor of Santa Clarita Valley. I can say, Santa Clarita's City Council is very respectful and very kind.
It's not every day that I hear a crime story that happened in Santa Clarita Valley. I do feel uncomfortable when I hear those stories, but of course I know the police are already on the case. In 2007, there was a very big fire that spread and burned up a lot of Santa Clarita Valley. My family could see the fire from our house and we had to evacuate. I was very frightened. I had left a lot of important things in my house. Later on, the fire had gone, thanks to the firefighters. I made a card for them thanking how much I appreciated them. They were so kind. They thanked me when I gave them the card. They had eyes that were red, and they looked very tired. They thanked me! I was so surprised and I was so glad I had firefighters like these to protect me.
In conclusion, when I think of Santa Clarita Valley, I think of safe. I couldn't have asked for a better city to live in. And when I grow up, maybe I'll even continue to live here.

I am probably not the best resource, as I am also confounded by the whole
printer thing, but I do have a working Konica-Minolta magicolor 2430DL on
my network, so maybe describing the process I went through to make it work
will help you. (I'm currently running 10.3, but I've had the printer
working for quite some time.)
The good news --- it's all done in YaST! Open YaST, select Hardware, then
Printer. Unless you have already configured a local printer, the list you
see will probably be empty. You might notice YaST taking quite a while
building a database of drivers; this is a GOOD thing. With any luck, your
printer will be in that database!
Simply select "Add" then "Network Printers". On the next screen, you will
probably want "Print Directly to a Network Printer", then "Direct TCP Port
Printing". (That really depends on how your printer's interface works.)
Finally, you will get to a panel that allows you to specify the "Hostname of
Print Server" and "TCP Port Number". Simply enter the printer's IP address
and port. But note the "Look Up" button to the right! It will search for
print servers available on your LAN! Obviously, you will need to have your
printer powered on and connected in order to do this search. (When I just
tried this on my system, it found a wireless access point and thought it
looked like a print server for some reason.) Be sure to use the "Test
remote socket access" button after you set the IP address. If the printer
is visible and working, you will know right away. If not, you will need to
change one of the previous settings.
Finally, you will get to a panel where you identify the Printer Manufacturer
and Model. This is the list of printers for which you have drivers
installed (well, they are actually called PPD files). With any luck, you
will see your printer listed. If not, you need to see if you can find the
appropriate PPD. I found mine on the Konica-Minolta support site,
installed it, and viola!

You really can't go wrong with any Glock...unless it's not comfortable on your hands; but then again you can customized to make it fit your needs.
Go for it!
March 3, 2007, 08:33 PM
Mine has 2793 rounds through it, with two failures to feed (ammo issues). Light, slim, accurate, reliable. Recoil to me is very manageable; I have no trouble keeping rounds on target at combat distances shooting strong-handed. The only issue I see is comparative lack of capacity versus, say, the 16 rounds you'd have in the comparably-sized 9mm G19. I bought a mag with a +1 extension. If you want a light .45, this one should be on your short list, in my opinion.
Why Glock hasn't come out with an 8-round version with a longer barrel is beyond me.
March 3, 2007, 10:04 PM
does anyone have comparasion pics like with a 26 or 27?

I've actually learned the 3x3x3 cube since that last thread. Picked up an original Rubik's Cube made in the 80's for like $20.
Only problem is it is not built for speed-cubing.
Fastest time on it is 1:34.
Not going near the 4x4x4 or 5x5x5 cubes though. It would most likely consume my life, trying to memorize algorithms.
Great timer for those who do cube.

Gas shortages in superstorm Sandy's aftermath have immobilized many and led to long lines at the pump. Now New York City and Long Island are following New Jersey's lead.
Starting Friday morning, the cities will ration gas, allowing customers with odd-numbered license plates to fill up on odd-numbered days, and customers with even numbers to fill up on even days.
Meanwhile, electricity remains an issue for many, with more than half a million residents in New York and New Jersey still without power.
The second nor'easter that swept through Thursday didn't help the situation. The storm blanketed the region with snow and plunged some back into darkness
It was the second time New York resident Nick Michael lost power.
"It was great to have it and then we lose it again -- extremely frustrating," he said.
The region's mess is also hampering the nation's air travel. On Wednesday and Thursday, airlines canceled more than 2,000 flights.
Non-profit organizations like CBN's Operation Blessing are helping with recovery efforts in key locations such as Mystic Island, N.J., and Breezy Point, N.Y.
How You Can Help:Give to Operation Blessing Disaster Relief
"Operation Blessing is going to set up a table here. We're going to take work orders and start helping people gut their houses, clean their houses out, start putting their lives back together," Operation Blessing President Bill Horan said.
"This is a community that sure does deserve everyone's prayers and all of our hope and all of our help. We're going to be here working for quite some time now," he added.
The damage estimate for Sandy is up to $50 billion, making it the second most expensive storm in U.S. history, right behind Hurricane Katrina.

Students enrolled in GRCC's architectural design classes will get a peek into the career of a city planner when Suzanne Schultz, director of planning for the city of Grand Rapids, addresses GRCC students today at 4:15 p.m. in the Wisner-Bottrall Applied Technology Center.
Who designs the complex city streets? Who creates zoning laws? Who structures the look and ultimately the feel of Grand Rapids? Schultz will address these questions and discuss how city planners have to account for current issues, as well as sustainability, in order to continue making Grand Rapids an enticing place to live. She will also cover the processes and decisions behind city development.
Schultz has been Grand Rapids' city planning director since 2005.

After brewing the award-winning Red Trolley Ale for more than two decades, Karl Strauss Brewing Company is ready to unveil the beer's turbo charged cousin—Off the Rails. Off the Rails is a double version of Red Trolley Ale with more malt, more hops, and more alcohol. This West Coast Imperial Red Ale is full of dark fruit flavors, toffee, and a smooth warming finish.
"Fans have loved Red Trolley since we first brewed it as our holiday beer 22 years ago," says Paul Segura, Karl Strauss Brewmaster. "Off the Rails is an opportunity to take the flavors people love in Red Trolley and really push the limits by doubling the recipe." Brewed with an impressive amount of caramel 60 and 80 malts, and a healthy dose of Willamette and Warrior hops, the finished beer has the same flavors as Red Trolley Ale, but with a more assertive and complex malt profile, and a warming increase in alcohol.
Small batches of Off the Rails have been brewed over the past two years for draft only and the response has been overwhelming. "Each time we brew this beer, our fans clamor for more. It's really rewarding to be able to offer this beer in bottles for the first time," says Segura. The company is bottling a very limited supply of 200 cases in 22oz bottles for release in early July. The bombers will be available across Southern California in select retail accounts. For more information visit www.karlstrauss.com. Share it. Cheers.
Off The Rails
After brewing our award-winning Red Trolley Ale for more than two decades, we decided to raise the stakes. Why mess with a good thing? Because it's that kind of dangerous thinking that leads to the next great beer. For this undertaking, we more than doubled our Red Trolley recipe with massive amounts of sweet caramel malts and earthy Willamette hops. Off The Rails has arrived: A West Coast Imperial Red Ale with rich toffee flavors, undertones of dark fruits, and a derailing hop character. If this is your first time off the rails, hang on with both hands.
About Karl Strauss Brewing Company
Karl Strauss Brewing Company is celebrating 22 years of brewing in San Diego.

Amid Record Fall, Still More Snow Forecast in South Korea
More snow is forecast Tuesday for eastern parts of South Korea already reeling from a record fall that has caused at least 14 deaths.
The Korean weather agency said a low-pressure system is traveling north where it will meet a high-pressure system, resulting in more snow for the Korean peninsula.
On Monday night, 10 university freshmen were killed and more than 100 injured at a resort in Gyeongju, a historic southeastern city popular with tourists, when the roof on an auditorium where hundreds of students were gathered to attend an orientation collapsed.
Though an investigation will determine the exact cause of the collapse, local media have speculated that the roof couldn't withstand the weight of snow and that the city's normally mild climate left it unprepared for such extreme weather conditions. Gyeongju has received a record 43 centimeters (17 inches) of snow over the last week.
Meanwhile, Gangneung, the largest city in coastal northeastern Gangwon province, is the country's hardest-hit with a record 109 centimeters (43 inches) of snow so far this year, and as many as 30 more centimeters (12 inches) expected Tuesday afternoon. The city has been operating a special emergency team and has kept city officials on alert since last week.
As of Tuesday morning, a heavy snow warning had been issued in some parts of Gangwon. The extreme weather conditions in the province have claimed four lives, damaged hundreds of greenhouses and farm facilities, left remote villages without electricity and grounded trains.
Two thousand plows and loaders and 40,000 officials and soldiers have been deployed to clear snow and make routes into isolated villages tucked away in mountains. Rescue operations are also under way, with 27 helicopters deployed to retrieve residents in isolated villages, according to the Ministry of Security and Public Administration.
The ministry estimates the heavy snow to date has caused 12 billion won ($11.3 million) in damage. Last week, it issued an emergency relief fund of 4.5 billion won, or $4.2 million, to help cover snow-related expenses.

|« Seismic Tremor: Rumbles without the Jolts
|Superstorm Sandy Wiggled the Whole Continent »
Drilling for Seismology
|The drilling rig at work. (photo courtesy of Horst Rademacher)
Drilling holes into the ground has never been a clean business. But operating a multi-ton drill rig on a windy ridge far from the amenities of everyday life takes special dedication. Grey drill-mud spatters out of the well. The wind scatters the mud all over the place and covers the drillers and their machines in thick, mucky goo. The noise of the machinery is deafening and the water to keep the mud circulating in the well has to be trucked in from miles away. The hole on very remote ranch land in northeastern San Luis Obispo County, that a Livermore based company has just started to drill, is the beginning of a new phase for studying the seismicity along the San Andreas Fault in Central California.
Under a contract from the BSL, the company will drill four 1000 ft. deep holes along the fault. These holes are part of a major research program called Tremorscope. Financed mainly by a grant from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, Tremorscope will allow BSL scientists to investigate a different and hitherto poorly understood type of rumbling of the Earth called seismic tremor. When completed, each hole will be equipped with an array of sensors, all capable of measuring the slightest movement of the ground in various frequency ranges.
Most seismic sensors are put into action by installing them in small concrete vaults at the Earth's surface. Hundreds of these tiny vaults dot the landscape of California, especially along the major fault lines. But even far from any signs of civilization, like roads, railways, farms and factories, these surface sensors are so sensitive that they can still pick up movement of the ground unrelated to earthquakes and faults. One cause of what we call seismic noise is the lovely soughing of the wind in trees. It disturbs seismic measurements because the trees transmit the rustling of the wind through their roots into the ground, causing the Earth to shake ever so slightly. Seismometers easily pick-up this surface noise, which can mask the slight shaking of the ground caused by activity on a fault.
|As remote as you can get in Central California... (photo courtesy of Horst Rademacher)
Going deep underground with the seismic sensors reduces such surface noise and as a consequence, their recordings of seismic signals are clearer. In addition, the deeper one drills into the Earth, the more solid the rock becomes. Seismic waves are much less attenuated and scattered by competent rock than by the loose sediments generally found near the surface. This also makes for a cleaner seismic signal and hence a better chance to study seismic activity.
Within the framework of Tremorscope, the four new boreholes will augment a network of four modern seismic stations, which were recently installed in surface vaults along both sides of the San Andreas Fault south of the tiny hamlet of Cholame. Analyzing the recordings of the eight stations together with the data from a multitude of existing sensors in the area, scientists hope to shed more light on seismic tremor. In our next blog, we will describe what is already known about this unique and elusive seismic signal. (hra088)

SHEPHERDSTOWN - Ever since the nightcap of a doubleheader with the Concord Mountain Lions last month, the Shepherd Rams had won 15 straight games prior to Sunday's doubleheader with the Notre Dame, Ohio, Falcons.
The Rams were able to stretch the streak to 16 with an 8-7 victory over the Falcons in the early game of the doubleheader, but the streak came to a screeching halt with a 9-4 loss in the nightcap.
"We were playing as a team and playing hard for seven innings," Shepherd coach Matt McCarty said. "We kinda got away from it a little bit, and that was why we weren't successful in both games."

Shepherd's Spencer?Wolfe, left, and Matt Wilson celebrate Wolfe's solo home run in the first inning of?Game 2 of a doubleheader against Notre Dame on Sunday.
From the first three innings of the early game, the Rams made sure that 16th game in a row was within reach.
Kyle Porter drove in three of the first four runs with a two-run home run in the first inning and an RBI double that brought in Bryce Shemer in the second inning. The other run came from a solo home run by Jacob Carney to make the score 4-0.
Spencer Wolfe added a grand slam in the bottom of the third inning to make the score 8-0 after three innings.
Former Washington Patriot Ryan Pansch started out the early game with five innings pitched, giving up only a single run in his final inning. Once Brian Martin relieved Pansch in the sixth inning, the Falcons began to claw back from their seven-run deficit.
Notre Dame scored four runs in the top of the sixth on a pair of two-RBI singles by Travis Smetana and Shane DeFranco, respectively, to make the score 8-5.
Shepherd's winning streak received a scare in the top of the seventh inning as Notre Dame still continued to chip away at the Rams' advantage with Sam Crater taking the bump in relief of Martin.
A single with a two-base error put T.J. Lett 90 feet away from scoring before Ryan Sanders singled to bring Lett to the plate to cut the lead to two. Bryan Blondeaux brought Sanders to the plate to make it an 8-7 game with the Rams still leading.
Crater settled down to strike out Taylor Neville and end the opening game with Shepherd hanging on to its single-run lead.
While the Rams received a scare of their streak snapping in the day game, the Rams' string of victories was broken in the nightcap in a 9-4 loss.
In the opening inning, the score was tied at one run apiece as both sides kept pace with each other.
The top half of the first started with Lett singling and stealing second base before coming in to score on a double by Blondeaux to make the score 1-0.
Shepherd responded in the bottom half with a solo home run by Wolfe, his second round tripper of the day.
"The wind was blowing out, and our guys were getting the barrel on the ball," McCarty said of the ideal conditions for home runs. "(Spencer) Wolfe got (Ryan) Messina going as well.
"Hopefully these guys can build upon that because that was one of the things that we were successful in during the run of 16 games."
While the Ram offense had been clicking, the Falcons took advantage of the defensive mistakes, breaking away with five runs in the third and fourth innings.
"Defense has been our question mark all year," McCarty said. "When we lose games, it's because we're not fielding the ball cleanly and making mistakes defensively."
"It's back to the basics," Wolfe said. "It's fielding the baseball, catching it, throwing it and catching it again. We kinda got off our game, and we need to get back on it."
The Falcons reclaimed the lead with a bases-clearing double by Andrew Hurd that scored Lett (reached on a Ram error), Keifer Quick (singled) and Jarlys Mejia (walked to load the bases) in the top of the third. Following a pitching change by Shepherd in the top of the fourth, Quick added a two-run home run to left field to make the score 6-1 in favor of Notre Dame.
Messina hit a solo home run in the bottom of the fourth to cut the Falcon lead to four, but Notre Dame extended the advantage to six in the top of the fifth.
An error by Shepherd put Mejia on base, and Hurd singled to right to bring in Mejia. Hurd was brought to the plate on a single by Danny Beaver to make the score 8-2.
Wolfe hit his third shot over the left-field fence in the bottom of the fifth to cut the deficit to four runs, but the Rams were unable to produce another run.
Even though the 16-game streak was broken by the loss, McCarty is hopeful that another can develop.
"We still have 14 games left," McCarty said optimistically. "If these guys can get back to what we were doing when we started the last streak, we can start a new one."
"It's more about keeping our guys positive. It's just one game, and it's not the rest of our season. We just gotta get it back together."

Three Views of the Same Object by Henry Murray
How do you know when it's just before too late? Poppy and Jesse made a pact some years back, before retirement, before ill health. But conditions have changed and the full weight of their agreement is now upon them. If one dies, will the other willingly follow? Will husband and wife leave their lives behind while they still have the choice? With humor, imagination and tenderness, playwright Murray ingeniously weaves together three versions of this story. Three possibilities of living, of loving, of leaving ? one powerful play about the preciousness and fragility of life.

Refurbished products represent a great value and we offer them with confidence knowing that every refurbished product was tested by a trained group of professionals. Refurbished products are warranted for up to 90 days after purchase. Any product failure not originating from defects in materials or workmanship will not be considered covered under warranty. Warranty terms applicable to refurbished products may vary; see below for specific warranty information and consider purchasing an extended service plan if you desire even more coverage.
