Letters to the Editor
In Phil Hughes' response to Thomas L. Gossard in the July LTE column, he said that Corel's license to Caldera for WordPerfect allows its use only on Caldera's version of Linux.
Corel's web page (http://www.corel.com/) has links which lead to a page on http://www.sdcorp.com/ for WordPerfect 7, showing it as certified for Red Hat, Slackware and OpenLinux, without mentioning any restrictions on using other versions of Linux. The current Corel port is WP 6, which is getting fairly old now. The Corel/SDCORP web pages say that WordPerfect 7 for Linux will be available in June (until a few days ago, it said May).
—Bob Nielsen firstname.lastname@example.com
I was referring to the use of WordPerfect 6, the only one available at the time. All new Caldera licensing will allow use on other Linux platforms.
—Phil Hughes email@example.com
"The first virus able to infect a Linux system has been found by McAfee Associates. The virus, named Bliss, has spread to Linux systems, as many Linux users play Internet games while logged in as root." ["From the Editor", May 1997]
Have you done ANY independent research about Bliss, or do advertising dollars simply obligate you to propagate untruths which the marketing-driven McAffe Associates has spread about this virus?
Bliss cannot be spread by playing Internet games whiled logged in as root.
Check your facts.
—Kirk Haines firstname.lastname@example.com
For the record, McAfee Associates has never advertised in our magazine. Thanks for letting us know that Bliss cannot be spread in this fashion.
I just received LJ Issue 39 and have discovered some errors in the published article "Porting Scientific and Engineering Programs to Linux", which I wrote with Charles Kelsey.
In the first line of the fifth paragraph, there is a reference to NCBO code. I don't know what NCBO means. In the manuscript that I submitted this line read "One thing that makes porting this code to a new platform somewhat challenging is that it is a safety related, pedigreed code." Perhaps you intended for the final product to read, "One thing that makes porting the MCNP4a code to a new platform somewhat challenging is that it is a safety related, pedigreed code."
Also, in Listing 1. FORTRAN Patch File, whoever retyped the patch file typed less than symbols (<) where there should have been commas (,). Humorous and quite understandable, since they're on the same key. Fortunately, the files offered for download at URL ftp://ftp.linuxjournal.com/pub/lj/listings/issue39/2177.tgz appear to be correct.
Thank you for your attention and for the opportunity to share with the Linux community.
—Gary Masters email@example.com
Please accept my apologies for these inadvertent changes in your text.
Regarding the Correction in the July issue, page 93, I would have thought that most Unix C programmers would know that the main() function in C is required to return an integer result. Thus, the correct first code line for Richard Sevenich's main() is:
int main()
not void main(). See Steve Summit's excellent comp.lang.c FAQ for a more in-depth explanation. There seems to be more than enough confusion about this point propagated by the DOS/Windows crowd without LJ contributing to it as well.
—Matthew Saltzman firstname.lastname@example.com
In "Porting Scientific and Engineering Programs to Linux" [July 1997], the authors [Charles Kelsey and Gary Masters] write:
"The f2c has inherent limitations, leaving g77 as the only viable alternative for compiling large, complex applications written in FORTRAN 77 under Linux."
I was amazed to read such a blanket dismissal of f2c. At Berger Financial Research, we've been using f2c to compile FORTRAN since kernel .99pl8. We write volumes of FORTRAN and use standard libraries such as SLATEC, LAPACK, MINPACK and various routines from TOMS. The last time we had a problem with f2c was a couple of years ago, and the maintainer fixed it within a week of reporting it.
What exactly are the "inherent limitations" of f2c that the authors refer to?
—Dr. Harvey J. Stein firstname.lastname@example.com

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

NH Troopers raise $15K for marathon victims
CONCORD, N.H. — The New Hampshire Troopers Association has raised $15,000 for the main relief fund for Boston Marathon bombing victims.
The association raised the money through T-shirt sales to members and the public.
The money is going to One Fund Boston, which was set up by Boston Mayor Thomas Menino and Mass. Gov. Deval Patrick.
The association said the fundraising was an opportunity to support those who were killed and injured "as well as showing Boston that New Hampshire stands strong with them."

Yes, it was an easy quiz. Elementary, even.
Yes, several of the questions are hardly "political". They had to include certain questions ("Mark Zuckerberg"?) so that certain segments of the population would register with a pulse.
But the results of our self-selected, non-scientific and adulterated test of the RedState community, is in: of over 1,400 participants, half scored a perfect 11/11 on the quiz. That's in the upper 2% of Pew's random sample of adults. Another 38% scored 10/11, so 88% of the RedState community is in the top 10% of the population in terms of "Political IQ" (if you accept Pew's definition).
But what do the results mean, and what can we learn from them?
First, let's look at some other results. First, the score for Pew's sample of 1,004 adults. Fully a third of them scored 4 or fewer correct, a range of scores you'd expect from random guessing.
Several of you asked about the results by political orientation. Most of the demographic breakdowns are available at Pew's site.
The gap in knowledge by age is greater:
The big policy issues that should be motivating people at the polls in 2012 -- jobs, energy, entitlements, etc. -- are precisely the issues that Obama's base of 18 to 29 year old voters scores poorly on. There's every indication that the better informed people are on these topics, the more conservative they will vote. They will be voting more on the issues, and less on personalities and Hope and Change.
Which puts an obligation on all of us. Whether we want the role or not, by our participation and interest we have become among the more highly informed voters.
And whether or not we realize it, our knowledge puts us in a position of influence among family, friends, coworkers and acquaintences.
We have all learned a lot, but we must also pass along what we've learned. You, dear reader, can have more influence than you know.

Man, oh, man. GTA4. I mean, G. T. A. Effing 4. It almost snuck up on me. I had legitimately been trying to avoid as much press about the game as possible. For some reason I have this personal issue that if I read too much coverage about any one game, movie, or book that I begin to kind of disregard it, and eventually lose all interest whatsoever. So after much dodging and weaving of preview vids, trailers, and 8 page long reviews I finally sat down with the highly anticipated title last night. After an hour or so of exclusively playing the campaign in an effort to unlock more options, weapons, modes of transportation, etc. I found myself a bit frustrated. Each mission that required me to chase down nondescript_shitbag_12009 resulted in me plastered all over the street, drowned, or otherwise pushing up some daises. This phenomena seemed to be directly related to the fact that every time I tried to make a tight turn while pursuing said shitbag I would inevitably end up kissing a wall at about 90 mph which resulted in the top 16 layers of Niko's face leaving a nice organic Jackson Pollok on the road for the passers by. I'm hoping to adjust to the strangely sim-like driving controls soon and spare Niko a little self-inflicted pain. On a positive note when I received my first pistol I was immediately overjoyed at how great the shooting feels now. Thank you, Rockstar. I was really getting burnt out on the whole run-circles-around-a-guy-while-spraying-bullets-in-whatever-arbitrary-direction-the-game-preferred thing of GTA 3 through San Andreas. I'm totally looking forward to digging into the game over the weekend.
I also started playing a little Persona 3: FES and I have to say that I am a total sucker for RPG's in which teenagers collect demons to transform into via a pistol shot to the temple. It just doesn't get any sweeter for my RPG dollar than that. The game have a very addictive collection kind of thing going with the different personas (demons) you collect to use in battle. Also the dialouge comes off as pretty authentic and the characters are rather likeable. The pace is quick and the gameplay elements are quite varied, which is definitely keeping me hooked. It's going to be tough dividing gaming time between this guy and GTA4. Not to mention I finally got my Mame cabinet up and running again and have been forcing more shmups on my poor finace' than she ever wanted to be a part of. :P
Back onto the comics tip I have started reading some horror manga. I'm not sure how it started. I think I picked up Junji Ito's Uzumaki after watching the awesomely-made movie (Spiral). From there I was hooked.
A brief list of my favorites so far:
Gyo (also by Ito, and also quite excellent) , about dead fish on metal legs spreading the "death stench" about town with horrific results.
Lullabies from Hell by Hideshi Hino. This volume is full of gross out dark humor stories from a guy that supposedly has over 400 published horror manga in japan. This stuff is great and I found a few more on amazon that I am anxiously awaiting.
I am also following a couple of interesting horror manga series as well.
One is Drifting Classroom by Kazuo Umezu about a class of elementary kids who are transported into a barren wasteland. As they slowly realize how dire their situation is the staff and kids begin the slow descent into madness. The art style in this one seems a little dated (the series was orignally published in the mid 70's) but that gives the book a somewhat disturbing feel as the characters are portrayed in a very sunday comic strip kind of way. Like Ito's books, this one definitely oozes atmosphere.
The other book is a series called Monster by Naoki Urasawa. This one has a rather mature, controlled approach to storytelling and character development that really works well and draws you in. The main character is a doctor, who, at the expense of the Mayor's life, defies the hospital director's orders and makes the choice to operate on a dying child. Who just happens to grow up and become the antichrist. That's gotta be a regrettable career move.
So far the only horror manga I've made an investment in and haven't been satisfied with is Dragon Head. The series starts off strong but by book 5 things have really slowed down. The story is populated with standard archetypal characters who are quite difficult to empathazie with. The post apocalyptic setting also seems to have been squandered as the characters mainly find themselves running from earthquakes, tornadoes, and wildfires as opposed to post apocalyptic horrors of a more organic fashion. Frankly by the end of volume 5 I was considering hitting myself in the dick with a hammer as a more pleasurable form of entertainment.
Anyway I hope if you've stumbled upon this entry you've found something interesting. If you like horror movies (particularly asian horror) and haven't taken the time or had the interest to pick up a horror manga I heartily recommend checking out one of the above. Feel free to email if you'd like to discuss. Later!

She is very rude and wouldn't let me get a word out. I heard her yell at her staff.
she is AWESOME!! has GREAT bedside manner.she did sx on my father-in -laws neck and was so gracious talking with the family
she fixed me
She operated on my mother in early 2000's, and was a fantastic doctor. I am very thankful she got to my mother in time before she was paralyzed. She was indeed in the best of hands. Highly recommended :)
She is a wonderful doctor. Me husband was paralized in May, 2002, we used to joke with her and tell her he would walk in 2 weeks, gues what, in 6 months my husband was walking. Other doctors at the hospital said he would never walk again, she took the time with us and answered all of my childrens questions, and we are happy to say he is walking, working, and giving back at the rehab hospital in Dallas. He has help five patients get through their situation and feel better about it. She is a God send and an Angel. We thank God for her everyday.

President Bush's budget downsizing could hit home in Georgia if Congress approves millions of dollars in cuts Bush recommended last week in research, education and extension funds at the nation's land-grant universities.
The agriculture school at the University of Georgia, which is using federal dollars to study news ways to market Vidalia onions, among other congressionally earmarked research projects, could stand to lose up to $1.6 million received this year for specific studies, school officials said Monday.
The president's budget proposal recommends eliminating 300 congressionally earmarked projects, or $150 million in U.S. Department of Agriculture research, education and extension grants to land-grant universities.
Bush's proposal says the local research programs, scattered across the country, ''often fail to address national priorities.''
Gale Buchanan, dean of UGA's College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, was in Washington, D.C. Monday with a team of agribusiness leaders that lobbies congressional leaders against agricultural research cuts.
UGA officials weren't sure which of their projects are on the federal hit list, but among the vulnerable UGA grants are $300,000 for a peanut-industry study, $100,000 to examine Vidalia onion marketing and a fire-ants study, said Jerry Cherry, the college's associate dean for research. The special studies, school officials say, represent a small but important slice of the school's $70 to $75 million research enterprise.
UGA officials were bullish about saving the projects during the long budget process to come.
''We think we're going to get that money,'' said Ivery Clifton, associate dean of the agriculture college. ''We're not in a panic at this point.''
Non-competitive USDA grants are the subject of criticism by the National Institutes of Health and other agencies that award research money more competitively.
Last week, the Bush administration also singled out the awards for criticism in their budget outline. ''Earmarked research is not subject to merit-based selection processes, therefore these programs do not represent the most effective use of limited federal funding and often fail to address national priorities,'' Bush's budget report says.
There may be some truth to the criticisms, Cherry said, but the projects are important from a local perspective, and often federal funding is the only option for continuing some research. Agriculture projects in general, Clifton said, get singled out for budget trimming by national politicians who are more concerned about metro-area voters than rural voters.
''I don't think there are too many folks inside the beltway who are too interested in the peanut farmers in south Georgia,'' Cherry said. The college, he said, will lean heavily during the federal budget process on U.S. Sen. Zell Miller (D-Young Harris), along with U.S Reps. Jack Kingston (R-Savannah) and Sanford Bishop (D-Albany.)

August 28 2015By Christina Conell and Carolyn Smalkowski, FNS -- Fruits and vegetables are at the top of USDA's back to school list, and just in time for the new school year, the Pilot Project for Procurement of Unprocessed Fruits and Vegetables is making it easier for schools in eight states to purchase them. The 2014 Farm Bill authorizes the pilot in not more than eight states participating in the National School Lunch Program, and provides them with an opportunity to better access nutritious foods.
August 27 2015By Amanda Heitkamp, Public Affairs Specialist, FNS -- USDA recently announced the availability of $25 million in National School Lunch Program (NSLP) equipment grants for Fiscal Year 2015. These grants help schools obtain much needed infrastructure to better serve nutritious meals, support food safety efforts, improve energy efficiency, and expand participation in school nutrition programs.
August 26 2015By Victor Oliveira, Economic Research Service -- Sometimes called the "most important meal of the day" for school-aged children, breakfast is available at nearly 90,000 schools across the country. On an average school day in fiscal 2014, some 13.5 million students participated. The Economic Research Service (ERS) illustrates the growth of the program in a new entry in its popular daily "Charts of Note" series.
August 25 2015By Janna Raudenbush, Public Affairs Specialist, FNS -- What's shaking in USDA's school meals programs? Delicious and nutritious food, that's what! Healthy food does not have to be bland or boring. So what can you do this school year to "spice" things up and take school meals to the next level?
August 25 2015By Food and Nutrition Information Center Staff -- USDA's National Agricultural Library has launched a fascinating online collection of historical diet and nutrition publications issued by the U.S. Government. Through this digital collection, users can explore the evolution of American food, diet and nutrition, reflecting the most current science of the time. This unique resource is the first of its kind to offer comprehensive online access to historical government nutrition publications.
August 24 2015By Whitney Rick, Agricultural Marketing Service -- Meet Jack, a sixth-grader who is eager to become a school nutrition and fitness game changer. He is one of nearly 20,000 student ambassadors with Fuel Up to Play 60 (FUTP 60), a program launched by the National Dairy Council and National Football League in collaboration with USDA. FUTP 60 empowers youth like Jack to improve nutrition and physical activity at their schools and in their communities.
August 20 2015Guest Blog by Tom Adam, Spout Springs School of Enrichment -- Those of us who work in schools know that the lunch line is not the only place where kids get their calories at school. That's why we were pleased to see the USDA Smart Snacks in School standards go into effect last summer, which applied to food and beverages sold outside of the school meals program, including in-school fundraisers.
August 19 2015By Dr. Katie Wilson, Deputy Under Secretary, FNCS -- The things that make our country so great and special can be found in the diversity of the people, their ideas, and their culture. One of the ways culture is expressed is through the foods we eat. Our nation's school meals should be no exception.
August 19 2015By Janna Raudenbush, Public Affairs Specialist, FNS -- Every day, millions of students across the U.S. walk into school with stomachs growling because they haven't had enough to eat either that morning or the night before and eagerly anticipate getting a school breakfast. For many students, school meals are not a luxury or a backup in case they forget to pack a meal; they are a lifeline.
August 18 2015By Dr. Melissa R. Bailey, Associate Deputy Administrator, AMS Fruit and Vegetable Program -- Sometimes the right blend can change your perception. One of our industry research and promotion programs is remixing school meal items to help change students' preconceptions and get them to eat healthy foods.

Gains and Pains from Contract Research: A Transaction and Firm-level Perspective
Determining the research and development (R&D) boundaries of the firm as the choice between internal, collaborative and external technology acquisition has since long been a major challenge for firms to secure a continuous stream of innovative products or processes. While research on R&D cooperation or strategic alliances is abundant, little is known about the outsourcing of R&D activities to contract research organizations and its implications for innovation performance. This paper investigates the driving forces of external technology sourcing through contract research based on arguments from transaction cost theory and the resource-based view of the firm. Using a large and comprehensive data set of innovating firms from Germany our findings suggest that technological uncertainty, contractual experience and openness to external knowledge sources motivate the choice for engaging in contract research activities. Moreover, we show that internal and external R&D sourcing are complements: the marginal contribution of internal (external) R&D is the larger the more firms spend on external (internal) R&D.

Europe against Cancer: Optimisation of the Use of Registries for Scientific Excellence in research
Coordinator: Jan-Willem COEBERGHJW
e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Project Number: 219453
EC contribution: 1,999,408.00
Project website: www.eurocourse.org
EUROCOURSE will tackle fragmentation in the funding and usage of cancer registries in Europe. It will do so by exploring ways to link and integrate national/regional programmes aimed at supporting cancer registries and research carried out using registry data. At the same time EUROCOURSE is seeking to optimize the use of cancer registration data for the amelioration of cancer control and the strengthening of population-based cancer research in Europe. EUROCOURSE will therefore adopt a two-pronged approach. Firstly, funding organisations, will exchange information, best practice and technical know-how in order to harmonise the way cancer registries are funded and organised. Secondly, cancer registries will be provided with the infrastructure necessary for harmonizing their data through exchange of technical know-how, best practices and the development of recommendations. Additionally, the process of data collection will be streamlined in order to provide comparable, accurate and timely statistics at the European level. EUROCOURSEs consortium represents a significant coverage of the European Cancer Registry landscape. Given the large number of cancer registries and funding organizations supporting the registry network however, the project envisages a flexible structure, including the introduction of new parties during its lifetime. This will be done essentially through the working groups that are firmly embedded in the workpackages. EUROCOURSEs inclusive approach will culminate in the FIRST EUROPEAN CANCER SUMMIT, which will aim to bring for the first time all stakeholders in the cancer control community in Europe including funders, researchers and other interested parties around one table to sketch out the future of European Cancer Registration in Cancer Control. EUROCOURSE will therefore expand as a direct consequence of the planned activities and therefore will have a major and sustained impact on cancer control and research in Europe.

Achieving Compliance when Legal Sanctions are Non-Deterrent
Law backed by non-deterrent sanctions (mild law) has been hypothesized to achieve compliance because of norm activation. We experimentally investigate the effects of mild law in the provision of public goods by comparing it to severe law (deterrent sanctions) and no law. The results show that exogenously imposing mild law does not achieve compliance, but compliance is much improved if mild law is endogenously chosen, i.e. self-imposed. We show that voting for mild law induces expectations of cooperation, and that people tend to comply with the law if they expect many others to do so.

UCU Mobile Finance Manager
University Credit Union
- August 29, 2016
( 55)
Mobile Finance Manager allows you to deposit checks, check balances, view transaction history, transfer funds and pay loans on-the-go! This app is for members of the University Credit Union located in Maine.
- Check Balances
- View Transaction History
- Transfer Funds
- Mobile Deposit
- Bill Pay
- Pay Credit Cards
- Secure Messaging for support
- Fingerprint authentication
Good app Has lots of great features. Despite what some have said, you CAN download to multiple devices. Our family has it on four devices. That may be a myth started by an uninformed employee of UCU. Only issue with the app is that sometimes checks that are wrinkled don't work well with mobile deposit. Other than that, it's as capable as most banks web based banking.
needs work Can only download to one device. Login and password are not the same as moble login. Very frustrating!
Doesn't work Doesn't even let me login. The same login works perfectly fine on computer
Great App! Very helpful, fast and easy to use,
unreliable and disappointing. I may switch back to Bank of America -- I wanted to participate in my credit union but there aren't enough convenient branches or ATMs, and the mobile app either doesn't allow me to log in at all, or when it did let me log on once or twice, the mobile deposit didn't work with my camera, so it was not usable at all. I made an inquiry but did not get a response. The BofA mobile app worked flawlessly, I"m not sure why this one can't be as reliable?
Unreliable deposit Worked great at first. Now will not work for mobile deposit. Went to my local branch and discovered they no longer accept ATM deposits...
What's New
- Added convenience and security with Fingerprint Authentication now available!

NFL Draft's Potential Patriots: LSU WR Jarvis Landry
|03.25.14 at 9:45 am ET
WEEI.com will continue to offer daily insight and analysis regarding options that may be available to the Patriots when it comes to the 2014 NFL draft. Here is one in a series of profiles of players who could be on the board when it's time for the Patriots to make a selection.
Position: Wide receiver
School: LSU
Height: 5-foot-11
Weight: 205 pounds
Achievements: 2013 second-team All-SEC selection (Associated Press, coaches)
What he brings: Scouts say that Landry has strong reflexes and ball-handling skills. While he has good size and speed, the general feeling is that Landry needs to bulk up more. He only started in 12 games at the college level. He did not help his cause at the NFL combine, posting the slowest 40-yard dash time of all wide receivers at 4.77 seconds. He attributed the slow performance to a right hamstring injury that he suffered during the sprint.
Where the Patriots could get him: Rounds 2-3
Notes: Landry, 21, had five 100-yard games as a junior in 2013, finishing the season with 77 receptions for 1,193 yards and 10 touchdowns. He is considered one of the top wide receivers in LSU's history with 137 catches for 1,809 yards and 15 touchdowns in 40 games. … As a senior at Lutcher (La.) High School in 2011, Landry set a record at the Under Armour All-America Game with eight receptions, good for 70 yards and a touchdown.

OSHA News Release - (Archived) Table of Contents
OSHA News Release – Region 6
U.S. Department of Labor
Region 6 News Release: OSHA-04-842-DAL
Mon., May 10, 2004
Contact: Diana Petterson or Elizabeth Todd
Phone: (214) 767-4776, ext. 222 or 221
CORPUS CHRISTI -- The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has cited Jimerson Underground Inc. and L&B Vactor Services LLC for alleged violations of safety standards following the November deaths of two L&B Vactor Services workers who suffocated when they entered an oxygen-deficient sanitary sewer in Edinburg to clean it out.
"These tragic deaths should have been prevented," said Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao. "To ensure that workplace fatalities continue to decline, we must make sure that employers protect employees from hazards. The significant total penalties of $100,600 send a strong signal that worker health and safety is of the utmost importance to this Administration."
Jimerson Underground Inc. of Sugarland, Texas, a sanitary sewer installation and maintenance company and general contractor, was issued one willful and eight serious citations. Proposed penalties total $78,200.
Several of the alleged violations involve "permit-required confined spaces" or "permit spaces." A workspace is "confined" when its configuration hinders the activities of employees who must enter, exit and work in it. For work in a confined space that has such serious hazards as moving machinery parts or lack of breathable air, safety standards require a written "permit" that names the hazards and details how to deal with them.
The willful citation issued to Jamerson Underground was for failing to have a written permit space entry program; failing to properly isolate, flush or eliminate the toxic atmosphere while ensuring proper ventilation through pre-entry testing; and failing to provide rescue equipment. The alleged serious violations included failure to inform the subcontractor of the presence of permit spaces for which entry could only be made through compliance with a permit space entry program; failure to prepare an entry space; failure to provide permit space training to all employees; and failure to inform employees of all the hazards associated with entry into a permit space.
L&B Vactor Services of Edinburg, Texas, a sewer maintenance company and subcontractor, was cited for eight serious violations with penalties totaling $22,400. The alleged serious violations include failing to post danger signs warning against the confined space hazards, failing to provide personal protective equipment, ventilation, atmospheric testing and continuous monitoring and failing to train employees on permit space entry.
Willful violations are those committed with an intentional disregard of, or plain indifference to, the Occupational Safety and Health Act and regulations. A serious violation is one in which there is a substantial probability that death or serious physical harm could result from a hazard about which the employer knew or should have known.
OSHA's role is to assure the safety and health of America's workers by setting and enforcing standards; providing training, outreach, and education; establishing partnerships; and encouraging continual improvement in workplace safety and health. Work-related fatalities declined 6.6 percent in 2002, the most recent year for which the Bureau of Labor Statistics has published data. For more information, visit www.osha.gov.

About Black Mountain
Drawing on blues, psychedelia, acid rock, Led Zeppelin, and the Velvet Underground, Black Mountain's sound was a cross between the darkness and grit of the Warlocks and Brian Jonestown Massacre's trippiness, with a folkie undertow weaving through it all. Black Mountain leader Stephen McBean previously fronted the semi-acoustic cowpunk band Jerk with a Bomb, but after releasing two albums, he reshaped the Vancouver-area band into a group called Black Mountain. After debuting in October 2004 on Jagjaguwar with the 12" Druganaut, Black Mountain stayed with the label for an eponymous full-length, issued the following January. Joining McBean for the album were local players Matthew Camirand, Jeremy Schmidt, Joshua Wells, and Amber Webber, listed collectively to preserve the band's communal ethic. (Black Mountain ran concurrent to and intermingled with McBean's other band, lo-fi classic rockers Pink Mountaintops.) The debut album earned enthusiastic reviews in the music press, and Coldplay tapped Black Mountain to open for them on an arena tour. In January 2008, Black Mountain released their sophomore album, In the Future, and showed off their willingness to explore proggy (and druggy) territory with the 17-minute opus "Bright Lights." The group's third full-length album, Wilderness Heart, arrived in 2010, and earned the group the Polaris Prize, one of the highest honors in Canadian music. In 2012, Black Mountain released their soundtrack to the film Year Zero, an ambitious documentary about surfing set against a dystopian, post-apocalyptic backdrop. In 2015, the self-titled debut album was reissued in a special expanded edition for its tenth anniversary, and the following year, Black Mountain issued their fourth proper album, IV, which was produced by Randall Dunn, best known for his work with Sunn O))). IV also featured Arjan Miranda on bass, replacing Matthew Camirand in the lineup. The band followed up on the album's release with an extensive international concert tour. ~ Johnny Loftus, Rovi

I really think this fight will happen. Bonte is no idiot and understands that this fight generate a big purse for Vitali. Haye has already agreed on the contract, CHEF has noted that they are awaiting on Vitali's decision later this month that he will fight on (likely Haye or unknown opponent in Ukraine) or he will simply retire and follow on as a politician.
Reasons this fight will be great for boxing:

The bottom line is I'd rather see Vitali fight Haye than fighters like Charr, Thompson and Mormeck.
K2 fans slate Haye and call him a bum but it's only because they are know Haye has it in his locker to beat either of them on his day, they are worried. You can't call Haye a bum and seriously be happy that the KBros take on the kind of fighters I mentioned above?

As for Vitali Haye has a decent chance - mostly because of his speed. But it won't be some convincing win but something similar to Valuev fight. But I still give an edge to Vitali.
I am not worried at all, I just don't see the purpose of fighting the fighter who doesn't have specially good HW resume and who doesn't want to fight anymore. Better option is to beat next HW champion than David Haye.

CBNNews.com - GAZA STRIP - The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) pulled its remaining troops out of the Gaza Strip Wednesday morning, though a sizable number are deployed on the Israeli side of the border to respond to violations of the cease-fire.
While the IDF planned to withdraw all troops prior to the US presidential inauguration on Tuesday, two shooting attacks by Palestinian gunmen and a mortar shell barrage fired at Israel on Tuesday delayed the pullout.
The IAF (Israel Air Force) destroyed the mortar launchers used in the attack.
"We will not tolerate attacks and will not be restrained as we used to be," one Israel official said.
Meanwhile, the IDF reported that the large number of landmines, booby-traps and other explosive devices planted by Hamas throughout Gaza are a serious threat to residents.
Two Arab children were killed Tuesday after reportedly playing with a landmine.
The IDF liaison office and Shin Bet (General Security Agency) officials said Hamas gunmen are continuing to pilfer humanitarian aid and attack UNRWA truck drivers delivering food and supplies to Gaza residents.
Shin Bet also reported that since the cease-fire went into effect, Hamas has been torturing and executing dozens of Fatah-affiliated Palestinians in Gaza.

Sword of the Stars 2: Lords of Winter Cheats
The game needs A LOT of polish (and manual and tooltips) but pretty fun once you get a hang of it.
The update is quite massive.
Should function a lot better now.
I'll give it a test ASAP.
The game has been updated.
The update is quite massive.

I'll give it a test ASAP.
And a very small list of fixes, some of them quite minor.
I'd really not call that massive.
The second one (1st actual update) was the large one.
The small update only fixed some GFx glitches.
[Edited by Borg_Overmind, 10/29/2011 1:39:25 PM]
You all forget one thing . The game is far far from beeing finished . Buggy as hell and soo on . There will be tons more of updates .
No one's forgetting that. That's the whole purpose of this thread.
As for the update being bigger than the original download, they pulled a Dead Island and released a pre-release build of the game. The first update was the version of the game which should have been available at the time of release.

City doesn't smother home entrepreneurs
The column by Christian Schneider in the Dec. 9 Crossroads section about how Milwaukee smothers home occupations with excessive regulations poorly reflected the reality of my over 27 years of managing all or parts of the department charged with enforcing those regulations ("It's tough on the home front").
The plain fact is that the department only enforced violations of the home occupation rules on a complaint basis. I checked, and confirmed that to still be the case. Had Schneider taken the time to actually talk to real-life complainants here, he would have heard stories that painted a very different picture than his.
By far, the most frequent complaint involves residential garages being turned into commercial operations with attendant late-night power tool noise, used oil dumped in sewers, obstructed alleys and junked auto parts littering the landscape. The reality is far closer to this problem than to a candle maker violating an interior square foot storage rule.
The department takes its cue of when enough is enough from the surrounding neighbors. I speculate that Schneider would be the first to demand government action to control an entrepreneur who valued his profit over his and his neighbor's sleep and quality of life.

Palestinians given a chance
In the Dec. 9 Crossroads section, Richard Foster gave an incomplete history of the Arab-Israel conflict. Foster jumped from Theodore Herzl calling for a Jewish state in the 1890s to the end of World War II, thereby ignoring about 50 years of history.
After Herzl created an international movement to form a modern Jewish state in Judaism's historical homeland in Palestine, many Jews began to return to Israel such that a Turkish census in 1900 counted 50,000 Jews living in Israel. At this time, Palestine was part of the Ottoman Empire. England defeated the Ottoman Empire in World War I and Palestine was legally transferred by the League of Nations to England in the British Mandate of Palestine in 1922.
The mandate called for establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine and the active settlement of Palestine by Jews. Jews came from all over the world to settle in Palestine to form a state as decreed by an internationally recognized legal document.
The British attempted to establish a two-state solution in 1936 with the Arabs having 75% of Palestine; the Jews accepted the plan, the Arabs rejected it. The British gave Palestine to the United Nations in 1947 and the U.N. recommended a two-state solution. The Jews accepted and formed a state on the land given to them, the Arabs rejected a state for the second time, and the surrounding five Arab armies attacked Israel.
Therefore, contrary to Forster, the modern state of Israel was first proposed and internationally recognized after World War I, not World War II, and the Arabs had at least two opportunities for their own state in Palestine before Israel was formed.
Marcy Yavor
Palestinians intractable
In his column of Dec. 9, Richard Foster observes that a source of the conflict in the Middle East is the presence of two peoples living on the same land, with differences he terms irreconcilable ("Irreconcilable differences at the heart of the Mideast," Crossroads).
Yet he fails to note that the Palestinians have been offered opportunities for an independent state several times, including the British White paper in 1939, the U.N. partition plan in 1947 and the offer from Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak in 2000. Rather than taking yes for an answer, each proposal was rejected.
Perhaps the true irreconcilability is the Palestinians being unable to accept a Jewish state in any form, thereby constituting them as implacable.
Nancy Weiss-McQuide
Don't blame Palestinians
The last paragraph of Ivan M. Lang's letter of Dec. 11 recalled the mass murder of the Jews in World War II by the Europeans; actually Adolf Hitler's Germany ("Distorted history lesson," Your Views). Why, then, are the Palestinians paying for Hitler's crimes? The Palestinians weren't responsible, still aren't.
Lang wrote "the United Nations in 1947 suggested partition of Palestine." It wasn't a suggestion. The U.N. didn't own Palestine. The Palestinians never agreed to the partition; still don't. The "partition" that was supposed to be agreed to by both parties precipitated more trouble.
Lang continued, "Israel declared statehood in 1948;" unilaterally, I remember. Palestine may do the same. Several countries already recognize Palestine as a state. Why then is there the demand that Palestine negotiate its statehood with the usurper of its land?
The Israeli Jews are there; the Palestinian Muslims, Christians and Jews are there. One state with justice and liberty for all before the law would bring peace - maybe. Let's try.

Wonderful musical fare
Where but in Milwaukee could we be offered the wonderful musical fare of a recent weekend? On Dec. 7, the Milwaukee Piano Arts sponsored the two-hour 20th century piano masterpiece of Olivier Messiaen with its ear-boggling rhythmic and harmonic textures.
On Dec. 8, we went back some 10 centuries and more to Early Music Now's Christmas program in which the glorious and exuberant chants explored the melodic possibilities of single tonalities. The voices and instruments of the Boston Camerata and the Milwaukee Choral Artists left no corner of the St. Joseph Center Chapel without their resonance in this program.
In addition to the major large performing organizations, Milwaukee is blessed with dozens of smaller musical groups, which enrich our lives. Thanks are due not only to those who provide these experiences but also to those who support them.
And we should not forget the women who began them: Thallis Drake founded the Early Music Now group. Sue Medford has put Milwaukee on the map with the Piano Arts, which draws dozens of gifted young pianists from around the country. Sharon Hansen founded and has directed the Milwaukee Choral Artists.
Thanks are in order!

I was just looking at the Gamespot review and saw:
"Amazing dialogue and voice acting bring characters to life"
"Amazing dialogue and voice acting bring characters to life"
Now for the most part I agree with that however I noticed when you select a dialogue for your character he doesnt speak it (atleast on my pc) is that just a error on my end? or is that how the game is supposed to be? If so, I wonder why I was able to choose my characters voice.
Besides that the game is amazing and I recommend for anyone that enjoys a good RPG story-telling game to go buy this one!!

That was something that was bugging me too, the player character talks during battles, but that's it. Otherwise it just seems...telekinetic.
A small problem in an otherwise dialogue rich game.

Essentially the idea is that YOU are the main character, and the game wants you to hear your OWN voice in your head. This is why there are no voice overs, but that is just my opinion, and I am not sure.

The Orioles took the middle game of the series against the Royals, 3-2, ending Kansas City's win streak at five. Jake Arrieta got his fourth win of the season while Baltimore handed Kyle Davies his fourth loss. Kevin Gregg recorded his sixth save.
Baltimore got ahead in the first when Brian Roberts, who was back in the lineup after sitting due to a root canal yesterday, lead off the game with a double. He tagged up to take third on a fly ball by Nick Markakis and was driven on by a sacrifice fly by Derrek Lee.
The Birds added another in the second on an RBI single by Markakis after Mark Reynolds singled and moved up when Robert Andino was hit by a pitch.
Jeff Francoeur cut the lead to one with a solo shot to left field, leading off the second inning. He homered in both games of the series so far. Arrieta's trouble continued when he gave up back-to-back walks to the number eight and nine hitter but left them stranded when he struck out Mike Aviles to end the inning.
Markakis added an insurance run to the Orioles lead in the seventh with a home run to right field.
Kansas City got within one in the eighth when Escobar singled up the middle and moved to third on a ground rule double by Aviles and eventually came around to score.Arrieta allowed one run on three hits over seven innings. He walked two and struck out eight on 105 pitches. Despite not having his best stuff early on, Arrieta settled down after the 35 pitch second inning retiring 15 of the last 16 he faced.
Jim Johnson came out of the pen to take the eighth inning. He went 0.2 innings, giving up one run on two hits. Mike Gonzalez finished the inning, retiring the one batter he faced. Kevin Gregg came on the close the game, giving up one free pass.
Davies went 6.1 innings, giving up three runs on seven hits with three walks and three strike outs. He threw 107 pitches, facing 30 batters as he had trouble finding location and went deep into the count most of the night. Nathan Adcock came on in relief, going scoreless in the seventh and eighth and allowing three hits. He went two-thirds of the ninth before being replaced by Tim Collins, who allowed a walk before ending the inning on the next batter.
The O's had a base runner in every inning but the third. Markakis, Reynolds, and Scott had multi-hit nights. Markakis got two of the teams RBIs and Reynolds reached base every time he came to the plate with three singles and a walk. It was his first three-hit ballgame as an Oriole.
Chris Tillman (1-2) will get the start in the day game for tomorrow's series finale, going against Bruce Chen (3-1).
