Säfsen ski resort in south-west Dalarna
Photo: © Säfsen/safsen.se
Säfsen ski resort in south-west Dalarna in central Sweden has 16 slopes, ranging from difficult to gentle, as well as 115 km of x-country track, with various activities along its way. It lies just 270 kilometres from Stockholm and 340 kilometres from Gothenburg.
Säfsen is small-scale, with the onus on quality and is purpose-built for families. It has an area called 'Filuriland' which is just for the kids where 'Filurius' an elk character and others keep the kids amused and therefore happy. Filurius lives in a long cabin and you and the kids can visit him and his family. There are barbecue spots as well as snowy picnic areas for you to relax with the family.
The majority of accommodation is in comfortable, red-coloured wood chalets, close to the lifts and amenities, as well as smaller apartments and larger private residences.
In addition to the 'Kidpark' and 'Kidskicross', there is a ski school for kids and adults. If the little nippers get bored of skiing, which we doubt, take them on a scooter safari, go sledging, or go for a hot tub. There is also a playroom at Hyttan where the kids can enjoy various kid-centric activities and watch movies. The eateries at Säfsen include Solbergs Wärdhus & Café, Soltoppen, the Smedjan Bar and Hyttan Kök & Bar, all of whom pride themselves in offering local produce and delicacies – and special menus for the kids.

Peace Corps Service
When I entered Peace Corps, I was a recent graduate with a physics major and I was assigned to be a teacher trainer for three years working in Huancayo and later Lima and I lived in Peru for five more years after my service. One of my proudest accomplishments is reaching an FSI level 4 in speaking, reading, and writing in Spanish.
I am especially proud that I have talked to and encouraged many people to join the Peace Corps and about half a dozen have become volunteers including my sister's daughter who is presently serving as a volunteer in Mongolia - where I plan to visit later in 2009.
Continued Service on the Third Goal
Since my service as a volunteer in Peru I have continued my service as a Peace Corps Volunteer contributing to the third goal as the President of the Maryland Returned Volunteers and creating the annual Peace Corps History lecture series that is now hosted by the Shriver Center at University of Maryland in Baltimore County.
I am also editor and publisher of four web sites dedicated to the third goal of the Peace Corps: Peace Corps Online with over 500,000 unique visitors a month, The Peace Corps Library documenting over 500 different aspects of life in the Peace Corps, History of the Peace Corps documenting the Peace Corps going back to 1961, and Peace Corps News. I also send out a monthly newsletter with Peace Corps news and issues to over 25,000 RPCVs and friends of the Peace Corps.
I have conducted in-depth interviews of Peace Corps Director Gaddi Vasquez and Peace Corps Director Ron Tschetter and have published articles highlighting Peace Corps Safety issues, Peace Corps issues with Disability Benefits, and the Fourth Goal of the Peace Corps.
I do a lot of writing for Wikipedia including completing the Peace Corps Director Biography Series with detailed biographies of Directors from Jack Vaughn through Ron Tschetter and writing the Peace Corps in the Media section for the main article about the Peace Corps on Wikipedia.
I also practice my hobby of photography to benefit the third goal of the Peace Corps including taking photos at Peace Corps events like the Flag Procession in Chicago at the 2005 Peace Corps convention and events with the Maryland Returned Volunteers.
Other Interests
Of course, Peace Corps is not the only thing I am interested in. I am a frequent contributor to "Slashdot: News for Nerds" that has a daily audience of millions of readers - hundreds of times as large as our audience at "Peace Corps Online". I am one of Slashdot's top five contributors having written over 300 stories for Slashdot on subjects ranging from science and engineering to religion and civil liberties. I have even contributed several stories to Slashdot about the Peace Corps that have been well received.
I also write a blog about my hometown of Ponca City, Oklahoma where my wife and I now reside and another blog about science, engineering, networks and emergent behavior. You can read more about my interests at my home page.

This is an artist's impression of the Jupiter-size extrasolar planet, HD 189733b, being eclipsed by its parent star. Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have measured carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide in the planet's atmosphere. The planet is a "hot Jupiter," which is so close to its star that it completes an orbit in only 2.2 days.
This type of observation is best done when the planet's orbit carries it behind the star (as seen from Earth), which allows an opportunity to subtract the light of the star alone (when the planet is blocked) from that of the star and planet together prior to eclipse. This allows astronomers to isolate the infrared emission of the planet and make spectroscopic observations that chemically analyze the day-side atmosphere.
The planet is too hot for life as we know it. But under the right conditions, on a more Earth-like world, carbon dioxide can indicate the presence of extraterrestrial life. This observation demonstrates that chemical biotracers can be detected by space telescope observations.

Work It At Work1 of 12
ELLE Creative Director Joe Zee is giving a new kind of makeover, on his hit show All on the Line. With his business and style savvy, he helps struggling fashion designers get out of the red and in to the black. Here, he shares his tips on how to dress for success at the office.
Glo is produced in cooperation with the publisher of ELLE.
From Drab To Fab2 of 12
"Skip the beige, and reach for a much more authoritative color. What commands attention more than army green? Remember to keep it feminine and easy, like this dress that could easily double up and head straight to a night out from the office."
SHOP NOW: 3.1 Phillip Lim dress, $495
The New Shape3 of 12
"Suit blazers at the office don't need to take on an androgynous corporate appeal. Right now there are so many jacket alternatives, it's easy to find one that's chic and respectable for the office. I love the shape of this one—drapey, easy, casual but elegant, especially when paired with a white T-shirt and tailored trousers. This, for me, is office chic."
SHOP NOW: Coldwater Creek jacket, $34.99
Classics Revisited4 of 12
"I love advising women to reach for classics when it comes to office dressing, but don't go for the boring—go for the new! I love this white blouse for its simplicity and sophistication and ease. You can literally pair this with everything: wide pants, pencil skirts, even jeans."
SHOP NOW: 3.1 Phillip Lim top, $550
Bag It5 of 12
"Ditch that boring black tote and carry something with statement. Of course, you want it to be roomy enough to carry what you need, but classic skins are always a good alternative to all those black bags you already own in your closet. And it's also a nice way to dress up all your neutrals."
SHOP NOW: Coach bag, $695
Suit Up6 of 12
"If you're going to go for the all-out pantsuit, do it in style, and most of all, make sure it fits. Shoulders should line up, and sleeves shouldn't be too long. Also, keep proportions in mind. A shorter jacket with a fitted waist with a pair of pants (like this one here) will always be more flattering—in the workplace or not."
SHOP NOW: Ann Taylor jacket, $228, and pants, $128
Graphic Design7 of 12
"A pencil skirt is always an easy alternative to pants, so why not go for a statement-maker at the office? Something in a garish print may not work, but graphic stripes (a big trend this spring) is the perfect alternative, and I love the high-waisted, longer-length proportion of this one."
SHOP NOW: Anthropolgie skirt, $128
Talking Pants8 of 12
"Always have staples in your closet—that's my motto. It's great to work in the occasional trend item, but start with the classics, and none better than a beautiful pair of black pants. Whether skinny or wide, full or short, finding the right fit for you is paramount, but it's an easy solution to a pulled-together look."
SHOP NOW: Theory pants, $295
Short End9 of 12
"Of course, if you do want to have some fun with your work wardrobe, why not pair a jacket with a pair of shorts instead of a skirt? Word of caution: This is not the time to pull out those summer beach booty shorts. Instead, always keep the fabric chic and the length appropriate."
SHOP NOW: Ralph Lauren Black Label shorts, $455
Color Me Right10 of 12
"Afraid of color? Don't worry—that's the problem with a lot of women. But the great thing is it doesn't have to be incorporated into your wardrobe in an overwhelming way. Instead, try it in small doses, such as a skinny belt or bag or a chic blouse like this one, layered under a neutral jacket."
SHOP NOW: Reiss blouse, $210
Shoe In11 of 12
"Who said you can't pull off a great pair of heels at the office? Shoes at work don't have to be boring (though I do love a pair of classic black pumps). With these, the contrasting colors will go with anything, and in the fall, you can even wear these with tights."
SHOP NOW: Tory Burch sandal, $350
The Final Touch12 of 12
"Accessories are the easiest (and sometimes most cost-efficient) way to freshen up any look. Earrings and cuffs are great, but I love the look of a statement necklace. It's also the easiest solution for going from day to night. Stash one in your bag, and voilà! You're ready to go at a moment's notice!"
SHOP NOW: Gemma Redux necklace, $505

Police: Man lied about his identityJuly 04,2014BENNINGTON — A local man is being held on $2,500 bail after police said he tried to mislead them about his true identity while they were conducting an investigation.
Orlando L. Vega, 27, of Bennington, was arraigned in Bennington criminal court on Monday on a felony count of impeding a public officer, one misdemeanor count each of giving false information to a police officer to attempt to implicate another person and disorderly conduct for fighting as well as two misdemeanor counts of violating the conditions of his release from custody.
In an affidavit, Cpl. Andy Hunt, of the Bennington Police Department, said police got a call around 8 p.m. Saturday from a woman who said a man she knew only as "Orlando" threatened her with a gun and a baseball bat on Pleasant Street.
While investigating, Hunt said he spoke with a man later identified as Vega outside a Pleasant Street apartment building. Hunt said Vega was uncooperative and gave him a false name of "Furnado Vaga."
While the woman who made the complaint said he had taken a gun from his pants and pointed it up in the air and later waved a baseball bat while outside the apartment building, Hunt said police didn't find any weapons.
The woman indicated she had no real previous relationship with Vega and claimed the incident started because she told him to stop giving her "dirty looks."
Vega was charged May 5 with driving under the influence of alcohol, attempting to elude police and other related charges. One of the conditions of his release was that he not drink alcohol and submit to an alcosensor.
Hunt said he believed Vega had been drinking alcohol Saturday, but Vega refused to give a breath sample.

"Pretty, yet simple to make how I would describe this bracelet. Any girl would like to make this and wear one. This would be a great group project for girls to make together at a sleep over or a birthday party. I think I'll have to make one for me too."
"Get a life.Quit your bickering."
"Speaking of gadgets...More than anything I would like to find a clicker or counter that I could click with my foot. When I am working with my hands and doing multiple pieces, it would help if I didn't have to stop at every one to count it on a hand clicker. And the finger one just gets in my way. Any help?"

The rugged Texas singer-songwriter is the talent behind 1973's "Old Five and Dimers Like Me," a set of straight-up outlaw country tearjerkers whose title track has been covered by Waylon Jennings and many more. This is saloon music from a guy born during the Depression, and he has a whole bunch of stunners up his sleeve. Those who dig a slow, sad ballad and an even slower drawl will be knocked out.
Shaver's appearance at Woodlands marks yet another in the bar's series of appearances by under-sung heroes. Molly Winters and Zach Whitney open.

Can you relate to any of this?
"Most of my reluctance to Just Begin Already with sponsoring a child, though, has boiled down to fear. It's easy to look back across the years and consider the times I've had my phone, electric, or gas turned off when money was a struggle. Easy to replay old conversations with bill collectors and lawyers and remember how my stomach used to squeeze uncomfortably when the phone rang. Easy to recount old wage garnishments. Easy to recall years that I've spent $1000 or more on overdraft fees in a never-ending cycle of appeasing creditors and trying to beat the bank.
"Easy to paint the possibility in my mind that if I make a commitment like this, maybe I will let the child down, and it will not be a matter of my discomfort, but of his or her life or death."
Read the entire post, From Cornerstone: Sponsoring My First Compassion Child, at wrecked.org.
But don't just read and comment over there. Let us know if there were other fears you had to overcome before you took the step to sponsor a child. Tell us if there are fears you're fighting right now when thinking about sponsoring a child.
By doing so, you can help make this post a relevant and valuable resource for people who are thinking about helping a child in poverty.
UPDATE: July 5, 2012 – The original post is no longer available on the Wrecked.org website.

Snow starts to pile upStaff Report | December 27,2012Vyto Starinskas / Staff Photo
A worker clears a sidewalk in Manchester after an overnight snow dump.It has been 658 days since Vermonters have seen more than 6 inches of snow fall from one storm and the storm today will continue to fall well into the night, according to meteorologists in Burlington.
Eric Evenson with the National Weather Service said they are expecting the storm to continue to accumulate snow throughout Thursday before tapering off during the morning hours Friday. There might be some snow small showers on Friday, but it will not account to much.
"It started in southern Vermont around midnight (Thursday) and then moved across the state in the evening hours," he said Thursday morning. "It's pretty much snowing across Vermont right now. It's going to continue throughout the day."
As of 9 a.m., the Northeast Kingdom has accumulated the least amount of snow — about 1.5 inches — but up to 12 inches is expected by the end of the storm. Evenson said the majority of the state has accumulated somewhere between 3 to 7 inches.
Snow reports show about 3 inches in Rutland, 5 inches in Northfield, 6.5 inches in Goshen, 2.9 inches in Hyde Park, 5 inches in Springfield, 5.5 inches in Ludlow and 7.0 inches in Jay Peak.MORE IN NewsNarration and audio production by RH Alcott Full StoryNarration and audio production by RH Alcott Full Story

For Immediate Release April 11, 2013Contact: Jeremy Warren, 512-463-0113
Senate Passes Michael Morton Act
Ellis/Duncan landmark reform revamps Texas' discovery statute for first time in half century
(Austin, Texas)—The Texas Senate today passed SB 1611, the Michael Morton Act, landmark reform revamping Texas' discovery statute for the first time since 1965.
The legislation by Senator Rodney Ellis (D-Houston) and Senator Robert Duncan (R-Lubbock) will provide for a reliable justice system by ensuring that all relevant evidence that speaks to a defendant's innocence or guilt is revealed. It creates a uniform, statutory "open file" criminal discovery policy for the State of Texas.
"This is an historic day for justice in Texas," said Ellis. "We must weigh all relevant evidence and ensure we bring all the relevant facts to light to safeguard the innocent, convict only the guilty, and provide justice the people of Texas can have faith in."
"I have long been an advocate for an efficient, effective and uniform court system across Texas. This legislation is a giant step forward in reaching that goal," Duncan said. "I am proud that stakeholders from across the state were able to come together and set aside their differences to improve our criminal justice system."
The legislation is the culmination of weeks of talks between stakeholders and relevant parties who put countless hours into this effort with Senators Ellis, Duncan, West, Huffman and Whitmire, their staff, judges, particularly Judge Barbara Hervey, prosecutors, criminal defense attorneys, the Governor's office, Thomas Ratliff, Michael Morton and his attorneys, and more. Each of these men, women, and organizations put the interests of justice ahead of self-interest, and by coming together helped created a truly historic justice reform.
"Passage of SB 1611 will increase transparency and accountability in criminal cases at a stage when we can still prevent wrongful convictions like Mr. Morton's," said Ellis. "I want to thank Mr. Morton for holding our feet to the fire and making this happen. Without his character, heart and leadership, the bill would certainly have died."

Improved VE is 2 points.Originally Posted by healme
Improved VE is 2 points.Originally Posted by healme
nope, its 15% base to self heal and 5% to your partymembers.
Improved adds 5% additionally per point spend.
So 2/2 improved V/E results in 25% self heal of all damage and 5% to all party members, comprende?
Hey Captain Obvious, where's the blue post stating that? Nothing has been stated as of now exactly how the talents will change. I could imagine them just dropping imp. VE.Originally Posted by willie
Did you even read the thread? =POriginally Posted by AetherMcLoud
Vampiric Embrace -- we need to nerf it, but we don't want it to be terrible for priests in small groups or solo. So we are going to make it 5% healing to your group (not raid) but 25% healing to yourself. Assume the talents that affect it get it up to this level.
Nowhere does that state what you claim. Sorry. But it COULD be that VE does no group heal at all and then talents give it that ability. Or it could end up with 5% to everyone and each talent point gives 10% extra self heal.Originally Posted by Swedishcow123
Stop bringing assumptions to the table.
Yeah I'd rather see imp. VE folded back into the VE talent. Or if they want us to spend 3 points for what once was better for only one point, at least have VE give 25% selfheal, while imp. VE gives 2.5/5% heal to the party.
Rather have it made into:
VE: 15% @ self, 5% @ grp
imp VE: + 5/10% self (so 25% @ self, 5% @ grp with 2/2 imp VE)
So i have 2 extra talent points to spend xD (don't need it as PvE carebear :P)
Yeah mine was the PVP approach
But best would be just one talent point for VE, giving 25% selfheal and 5% groupheal. It was 30% groupheal back then for 1 talent point and wasn't overpowered either.
true, they should remove imp VE alltogether... a bit more groupheal would be nice, but i guess they'll have to test it first and maybe tweak it a bitOriginally Posted by AetherMcLoud
Ok we get more damage and eaven less utility how is that good? ok i get the damage part but soon we are like whitout any utility expect the ability to respec....
hmm, what ive seen after the patch you can now make a macro for VE + MB?
the 0,5(?) CD after you cast MB is now gone when you shall cash VE?
So if anyone could make a macro for VE + MB i will be very happy!
Yep definately some love there. I use the mana buff more than healing (outside of raids) and definately hardly ever use the healing one when soloing. But it's good to see these boost happening, Especially that they're gonna raise the DPS up a bit. My shadow priest, gear for gear, is far below other casters on the DPS scale in raid content. So it will be nice for these changes to come about as i was considering switching to holy just so id be more useful in raids.
when ?
Swear I saw a blue post saying they were changing it to:Originally Posted by Serendipity
VE: 15% self, 3% group
Imp VE: 33/66% increase.
Which would, with both points in Imp, be... wait for it... 25% self, 5% group. :P
That is also correct.Originally Posted by Mosshorn

I have a baby bullet and we do "baby food." We tried the BLW stuff but its not really for us. He still eats banana and avocado on its own, and sweet potato, but everything else is prepped for him in the baby bullet. I also go to school full time so its easier for our DCP to have prepped foods. He eats almost everything we do, but just purreed a bit (not total mush).
To get to your opening topic, though, we make rice cereal in batches (organic brown) and freeze it in 2 oz portions. When we give it to him we found he doesn't like it bland, so we mix a bit of butter and pure maple syrup in with it, the tiniest amount. He gets this for breakfast almost every day. We also mix peaches, blueberry and other fruits in with it. He has been trying to feed himself with the spoon since day one, super cute.

In Grains Intermediate division, Nathan Culpepper made Pumpkin Swirl Bread and received a Red Ribbon, Baylea Herring in the Senior Dairy Division prepared Holiday Corn Dip and received a Red Ribbon.
Dylan Pawlik in the Intermediate Dairy made Holiday Baked Spinach Artichoke Yogurt Dip, and received a Red Ribbon.
These participants worked extremely hard to get to the District level of competition. These youth not only select and prepare these healthy dishes, they also have to learn where they fit in MyPlate, the nutrients they receive from their dish and how that affects their body, and food safety when preparing their dish. Live Oak County is very proud of these youth.
Live Oak County had two hardworking Food Challenge Teams make it to the 2013 District 12 Food Challenge in Laredo.
The Intermediate team consisted of Dylan Pawlik, Dawson Bednorz, Pacen Wieding and Nathan Culpepper.
The Senior team consisted of Holly Kopplin, Baylea Herring and Victoria Culpepper.
In the food challenge competition, the teams are given a bag with ingredients, and just a hint of what they are supposed to do with those ingredients. Each team takes a large container containing all of the utensils and equipment the teams would need to prepare a dish. The teams are given 40 minutes to prepare a dish, and their presentation to the judges, as well as clean up their area, all within that 40 minutes. After the 40 minutes is complete, they go to the judges, and tell them what it is that they prepared with their ingredients, and give the judges information from MyPlate, the nutrients their dish would give, and the food safety involved when they were preparing their dish.
The intermediate team received a Blue Ribbon, and was the Top Winner of the Intermediate Age category, which is a huge feat to accomplish.
The Senior team, received a blue ribbon.
We are extremely proud of all the hard work these teams put into the Food Challenge. Misty Morgan, for leading these teams to a successful experience at the District 12 4-H Food Challenge. A lot of hard work was put into preparing these teams for the district competition.

JP Morgan shivers, Wall Street catches cold
April failed to bring showers of bond trading to Wall Street.
In a filing Friday, JP Morgan Chase warned investors to expect second-quarter trading revenue to be down about 20% versus a year earlier. That is especially ominous given how early it is in the quarter.
This sounds familiar. In the first quarter, JP Morgan chief James Dimon sounded the alarm about trading. What followed were double-digit declines in fixed income, currency and commodities revenue at his bank, as well as at Bank of America, Citigroup and Goldman Sachs.
The upshot of JP Morgan's latest warning is that other banks are likely to face similar pressure, a problem given they continue to struggle with superlow interest rates and lacklustre mortgage-origination activity. That said, the bite won't be equally felt: In recent years, the percentage of annual revenue from fixed-income trading has been in the mid to high-teens for JP Morgan and Citi, closer to 10% at BofA and Morgan Stanley and one quarter to one third at Goldman.
Yet last quarter Goldman did better than expected. Strength in commodities, also credited by Morgan Stanley, helped. And there are signs this again could be a benefit. Research from Citi shows money continues to flow into commodities index swaps and exchange-traded funds.
Overall, though, there seems to be a damper on fixed-income trading. Trading tends to pick up when fund managers have confidence in the market's direction and when new issuance drives portfolio shifting—and there were no signs of either in April. Issuance of heavily traded bonds declined compared with April 2013, according to the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, and rates were mostly flat to down.
Which means spring on Wall Street may feel a lot like the past winter.

Glasscock began building the more than 65-year-old theater in February 1945.
The theater was one of Glasscock's many theaters. He'd built similar ones in Blanco (Blanco Theater) in 1938 and Stockdale (Dale Theater), among others.
The George West theater – called the West Theater at the time – opened on New Year's Eve in 1946, according to documents in the Live Oak County Tax-Assessor Collector Office.
But building the structure was difficult for Glasscock because he ran into cost increases, probably because of World War II, which had not ended until the surrender of the Japanese in August 1945.
Initially, the construction of the building was estimated to be $75,000, but by the time it was constructed, the cost had increased to $165,000, a huge sum for 1946.
Glasscock, who was born in Atascosa County, retired from the circus in 1919 and entered into the oil and ranching businesses, but he never lost his love of theater and performing.
The first movie shown in the air-conditioned building on Jan. 1, 1946, was "One More Tomorrow," starring Peter Godfrey, Jane Wyman, Dennis Morgan and Ann Sheridan.
"I remember sitting in the balcony in 1947," said Lamon Bennett, who worked closely with builders and volunteers to refurbish the building, which had closed as a movie theater in 1962.
"There were ushers to seat you, a powder room for the ladies, and probably it was the only air-conditioning in George West," Bennett said.
Bennett commented that the building had been built with double-wall concrete tiles.
"I'm pretty sure they were made at Bartlett Machine Shop. I think they got 2 or 3 cents a tile," he said.
Bennett also said Glasscock wanted to make sure his movie theaters were being managed correctly, so he had a person with a counter sit outside the theater and count people as they came in. He did this at all of his theaters, and of course if one had some terribly different numbers, he could tell something was wrong. And ticket sales had to match, as well.
After offices moved in with major modifications in the 1980s, the building ended up closed again.
Then Sammy Murphy bought it with the intention of housing a teen center. But the building posed too much of a problem for him, and he gave it to Storyfest Inc. in 2000.
However, Storyfest did not want to own the land or the building so a committee was formed to work on converting the old theater into a performing arts center.
Now, 10 years later, the work is done, but it took a communitywide effort to do it, and the Dobie West Performing Arts Theatre became a nonprofit (a 501c 3) in 2009.
Live Oak County Commissioners Jim Bassett said when the group first began on the building, it was in shambles.
"The roof was falling in. You wouldn't believe what this place looked like," he said.
"They have done an outstanding job," he added.
"They" are the current Dobie West Theatre for the Performing Arts board: Bennett, Virginia Horton and Mary Ann Pawlik. The previous board included Bassett, Diana Self, Harvey Hardwick, Pam Wheeler, Bennett, Horton and Pawlik.
The upcoming board will include Sean McCall, Heather Roeske, Kristin Gerth, Patrick Burns and Mickey Mendez.
And numerous people from Live Oak County contributed time and materials over the past 10 years.
Pawlik said the completion of the theater could not have been done without the generous donations of money.
Donors contributed $5,000 a star for the George West Walk of Fame in front of the theater – the stars recognize avid contributors as well as memorialize family members who have passed on.
Also, special stars in a plaque just inside the lobby commemorate those who donated $1,000 or more.
And another plaque carries the names of donors who "purchased" chairs at $100 each.
Horton proudly said that the theater is debt free.
Beaming with happiness and satisfaction over the completion and grand opening in which more than 100 people attended, Pawlik now looks forward to the first production in the performing arts theater – "Our Town," a play by Thornton Wilder that will premiere Aug. 3 and continue on Aug. 4. Pawlik is the director.
A special thanks was extended to Unify to Beautify for decorating the theater for the grand opening, as well as the George West Chamber of Commerce for underwriting the cost of refreshments and the George West Storyfest Inc. for serving.

Stinky, smelly not-so-fresh towels. You all know what I mean. Those towels that no matter how many times you wash them, or how many fabric sheets you stick in the dryer, they just stink. Or, maybe they smell almost-fresh coming out of the dryer, but the second they get wet, that mildew, musty smell is back.
Maybe you left a load overnight in your washer and they haven't been the same since?
Maybe your front-loading washer doesn't live up to all the hype?
I've tried washing machine cleaner.
I've tried adding plain white vinegar to my machine.
Nope. Still funky.
I saw this on Pinterest the other day and decided it was worth a shot.
What to do:
Wash a load of towels in hot water and 1 cup of vinegar. Don't add detergent. When that load is finished, run the towels through another cycle on hot, this time adding 1/2 cup of baking soda.
Guess what?!
It's a miracle. My husband will not be bitching about stinky towels any time soon. They smell FRESH and LOVELY! Amen!

I'd say more Turisas meets Opeth. Vocals sound just like Mathias Nygård or Mikael Åkerfeldt at times.

I think Turiaf starting was big for us. Gallo should be coming off bench and let everyone play into natural positions. Everyone thrived.
I actually heard rumblings about this while leaving the Garden (granted folks were still on a high from beating the Spurs) but people were saying that they liked the starting 5 they saw out there.
Why wouldn't Gallo be better suited in a scoring 6th man role? If he's as dangerous an offensive player as some of you believe him to be (while looking past his limitations because the Knicks marketing department tell you that he is the next big thing) then why not use that firepower off of the bench to go against the second unit of opposing teams?
If our starters are giving it to the opposing starting 5, and then Gallo & Co. are giving it to the second unit, that's a balanced attack over 48 mins. What's the opposition to this? Hurt feelings cause Daniloooooooooooooooooooooo Gaaaaaalllllllllliiinnaaaaaaarrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii needs to be a starter? Why?
I say do what's best for the team, and let's put hurt feelings aside. The coaching staff still has a few more games to make these evaluations but it's more than a fair question. He could be to us what Ja. Crawford and Jet Terry are to their teams. You already have to deal with the starters, and then when they catch a breather, here comes the second unit to drop more buckets.
Guess if I was simple in the mind...everything would be fine.
I think Turiaf starting was big for us. Gallo should be coming off bench and let everyone play into natural positions. Everyone thrived.
So Red,
Will you tell these posters here that have not taken a stance to stfu too?
You started your thread stating are we better WITHOUT Gallo.
But because almost all the posters bring up a different perspective and said bring him off the bench you are forced to change YOUR stance on the matter.
You want to create a thread saying stating maybe there are options for using Gallo differently to include as trade bait, etc then that would be great and informative and add perspective.
You didn't do that, you went right in with the dramatic "WITHOUT GALLO."
So how about you stick to YOUR guns and take a stance.
Without Gallo?

That Starting lineup can play D and Get more rebounds then one with Gallo who is 6-10 and averaging 4 rebounds... which is kind of pathetic compared to Fields and Chandler who are averaging 7 and 6 respectively. Fields and Wislon while not amazing three point shooters, still can spread the floor and are excellent cutters. I want to say that we are better without Gallo considering we just beat the best team in the League w/o him as I ave been telling people all along that e is not an impact player, but seeing guys like Walker and Douglas get extended minutes doesn't make me feel so good either.
If we want to get out of the first round of the playoffs we need Gallo. As good as Will as been shooting from downtown, teams just don't respect him yet and don't space the floor as well. You cannot take Gallo out of the rotation.
Now if your saying he should come off the bench, let's wait and see how the Knicks do against Utah and Portland this coming week. Phoenix should be an easy win, but the other two are good teams. If the Knicks continue to play this impressive without Gallo, maybe it is more important to have Turiaf in the starting lineup, and let Gallo come off the bench.
aka H2O
Patience. This Knicks team has 2-3 weeks to prove this starting lineup is the way to go. That Spurs game was just ONE win. Honestly I'm a huge Gallo fan, but if bringing him off the bench is going to help our team win more, I'm all for it. But I don't want to penalize him for not playing. We did win 19 games with him in the lineup.
aka H2O
I loved seeing everyone play their natural positions and thought we were better off that way. One game is way too small of a sample size, but if this works during the road trip I'd like to see Gallo play a 6th man role. My concern is that Gallo stops being productive coming off the bench.
We beat the Spurs without Melo, we must be better without Melo.
Dallas is winning without Dirk, they must be better without him.
Knick fans overreact over everything. Sometimes they are the best fans but sometimes they are the worst.
And for those of you that watched the game last night, Turiaf only played his typical 20 minutes. We still played small ball for the majority of the night.
This has nothing to do with starting a traditional lineup. Williams and Walker, not Turiaf, got Gallo's minutes. Chandler still played a lot at PF and even some at Center, not at SF. I'll take Gallo over Williams and Walker any day.
Chandler, and the other players, stepped it up with one of our key pieces down. This is what good teams with a good coach do. End of discussion.
And this was one freaking game. Sheesh. If we beat the top teams with Chandler playing starter minutes at SF and go back to our inconsistent ways when Gallo takes over at SF, then we can debate this. Until then, drop your desire to root against D'Antoni and Gallo.
Obviously we need depth, so why would I think we should have LESS players. Contextually, "without" Gallo means not having him -vs- having him on the floor... not, not on the team.
Everyone realized that but you. Because your personal love has you jaded and unable to see the team above the player.
2. I clarified not b/c I've changed my opinion, but to get to the point which is are we better with him off the floor, not off the team, off the floor.
Every team has a drop off when the bench is inserted, so its not a knock. But in my estimation, although we sacrifice his 15ppg, we're better served by playing a big rather than him in the starting line up.
We probably won't have to play from behind as much
We probably will have better ball movement
We get to evaluate his and our other players worth
We get to see what happens when we infuse size and defense
The personal godson, hyped pick pressure is off, and I think that's a blessing. It forces MDA to coach better imo and use more of our assets.
So yeah, I feel we are better without him on the floor. Not that he has no role, but we may be better.
As stated just now on the radio...
This has relevence b/c new factors are coming into play, and our current situation (Melo, trades, rebuilding, etc)
We'll discuss it, then take a look at the results 2-3 weeks from now.
But I suspect, we don't need a 6'10, streaky shooter, who can't guard his position, because coach plays him out of position, while we have another player who is better at his natural position as much as we thought or been made to think.
It would serve the team better to have him come off the bench or used as a trade to acquire what we really need, imo... which is what I said about D Lee and you see the results. Yeah I knew I was right... thought so.
Yes we do play way better without him in the lineup, and it will be even more evident in the following games. We can find anybody in this league to contribute streaky points and lack luster defense. Now that he is out of the line up, we can keep our flow/tempo/rhythm of the game up on both ends of the court. I'am so glad he is not playing and hurting our team. His little contributions can easily be replaced but our bench. This will be a very telling time for all Gallo supporters. The truth always comes out....
I've felt Gallo was a bench player waaay before this game. I wouldn't say we're better without him BUT I definitely don't think he should be in the starting lineup. Reasons being he's too inconsistent, usually only plays good for a half and he's for the most part one dimensional. His 15ppg while playing 30+ min is not going to dramatically alter anything by coming off the bench. Hell, Will averaged more than that when he was coming off the bench.
I think if it were any other coachs' decision, Gallo would be a 6th man. We all know the family ties along with Dantoni's love for the 3 ball weighs heavily in this decision. However, basketball purists would prefer a more well-rounded starting lineup.
With this lineup you still have good perimeter shooting with added defense in the middle. Remove Turiaf for Gallo and all your doing is substituting interior toughness for more shooting. I'm sure Walsh knows that you have to incorporate a real center to your squad to be effective in the playoffs. The playoffs is all about consistency and the way we play is exciting and even explosive at times, but its not consistent. Relying on 3s is dangerous in the playoffs because its tough to maintain a high 3pt shooting percentage (evidenced by how shooting a % of 37% or higher is considered good).
Real Talk
We've been discussing this for years, since he got here.
The current circumstance I.e we have a legit 1 & 4, adds to the situation which may or may not be coming to frucian.
Posters/ writers make assertions, state opinions, then we look at the data... theory, then application. That's it, not reaction. Gallo has always been limited, we haven't always had a chance to see how we do with better players minus his inconsistent contributions.
Evaluate and let me know using your logic, not your personal feelings.

So I have some cool samples chopped. I have a pattern plus drums. But what are some things you do if you can't fit a bass line, keys etc. what I mean is when it sounds out of tune
Any ideas
When bass and synths don't fit the samples ?

You may just keep pitch shifting (transpose) one of the two until you get them in the same key. Depending on where you got the samples from, say from a turntable with the pitch adjustment faster or slower or a wornout tape player, you may be in between notes and transposing by whole tones (F-G) or semitones (F-F sharp) will still have you out of tune. So, you would have to transpose the pitch by cents (100 increments in 1 semitone) which is tedious work. I would resample without any pitch adjustment first if possible. Although you may just have samples in two different keys that do not work together even if they have notes in the same scale. Hard to say without hearing it. I would just playing with it, definitely a good learning experience, been there plenty of times

In order to manipulate data using Unix, a file system that contains the data must first be mounted. If the data is located on a hard
drive, floppy, or CD-ROM drive physically cabled to that computer, you can
mount that device directly using the mount command to specify the device,
the filesystem, and a local mountpoint. To automate this process, you can
add the correct entry to your
/etc/fstab file.
If you wish to access data that is physically located on another Unix
computer, you will need to use NFS, the Network File System. The computer
where the data is physically located must be running
nfsd, the NFS
daemon. It must also have a properly configured configuration file which
is read by
nfsd; this file is called
The computer that wishes to access the remote data must be running the
NFS client and must be mentioned in the
/etc/exports of the computer
The easiest way to install
nfsd and the nfs client is through
/stand/sysinstall. Let's pretend I want a computer named alpha that
has an IP address of 10.0.0.1 to access the
/usr directory on a
computer named gamma that has an IP address of 10.0.0.3. Gamma needs the
nfsd, and alpha needs the nfs client. Let's start by logging on as root
at gamma. Then type:
and select "Configure" and then "Networking." Press the space bar on the option "NFS Server" to select it. You will receive a message that will invoke the vi editor to edit
The examples given in the default
/etc/exports are straightforward enough
to get NFS up and running. If you want to fine-tune NFS and gain a better
understanding of it, open up another virtual terminal and type:
man exports
For now, let's just see if we can get NFS to work. Arrow down to the
# in the line:
#/usr huey louie dewie
press Esc-x to remove the
#, arrow over to the "h" in huey and continue to press "x" to remove
huey louie dewie. Press Esc-i and type
alpha -- the line should now look like this:
/usr alpha
Then press Esc and
:wq to save your changes and quit the editor. Exit out of
We now need to start the
nfsd. Press Alt-F1 to return to the main terminal, then type:
Press Enter when you get this message:
shutdown now
Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:
Then type:
This causes FreeBSD to restart all of your daemons and reread their configuration files. Your startup messages should include the following:
Mounting NFS file systems. Doing additional network setup: portmap Starting final network daemons: mountd nfsd rpc.statd.
If you receive an error message instead, you may have disabled the
portmap daemon in
rc.conf file:
pico /etc/defaults/rc.conf
Press Ctrl-W and type
portmap to search for the
portmap_enable line, which should read:
portmap_enable="YES" #Run the portmapper service (or NO).
If it is set to
NO instead, change the
NO to
YES, and check your change very carefully
before saving it.
Issue another
shutdown now, as above, and watch your boot messages. To ensure that
nfsd did start, you can enter this command:
ps -aux
and look for the lines:
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TT STAT STARTED TIME COMMAND daemon 117 0.0 0.5 884 132 ?? Is 8:34AM 0:00.01 /usr/sbin/portma root 122 0.0 0.7 488 184 ?? Is 8:34AM 0:00.02 mountd -r root 124 0.0 0.0 328 0 ?? Is 8:34AM 0:00.01 nfsd: master (nf root 126 0.0 0.0 320 0 ?? I 8:34AM 0:00.00 nfsd: server (nf root 127 0.0 0.0 320 0 ?? I 8:34AM 0:00.00 nfsd: server (nf root 128 0.0 0.0 320 0 ?? I 8:34AM 0:00.00 nfsd: server (nf root 129 0.0 0.0 320 0 ?? I 8:34AM 0:00.00 nfsd: server (nf root 130 0.0 0.5 263024 140 ?? Is 8:34AM 0:00.00 rpc.statd
The last thing we need to do on this computer is ensure there is an entry
for alpha in
pico /etc/hosts
10.0.0.1 alpha
Let's also test connectivity:
ping 10.0.0.1
ping alpha
should both be successful.
Now, login as root at alpha.
And select "Configure," then "Networking"; use your spacebar to select the NFS client and press OK, then exit out of
Before we try mounting gamma's
/usr directory at alpha, let's create a mountpoint on alpha:
mkdir /share
Now issue the mount command:
mount gamma:/usr /share
If you issued this as root, you should receive your command prompt back without any error messages. To see if it mounted:
which should return a line that reads something like this:
gamma:/usr 5996471 1069259 4447495 19% /share
and if you issue these commands:
cd /share
you should be able to see the contents of gamma's
/usr directory.
When you are finished, you can unmount
/share like any other mounted file system:
umount /share
Congratulations, you've just created your first NFS server; now let's fine-tune it a bit.
Normally, you won't want to export your entire
/usr directory
structure. Even if permissions are set correctly, you don't want remote
users poking about your home and bin directories. Instead, create a
subdirectory of
/usr to contain the information you want remote users to
access. As a practical example, I copy the packages collection into a
directory I've created called
/usr/packages. I then export
/usr/ports, so my
/etc/exports looks like this:
/usr/ports 10.0.0.1
/usr/packages 10.0.0.1
The new mount command at alpha is:
mount gamma:/usr/packages /share
cd /share
The above command will only show the packages collection stored on
gamma. An added side benefit to the client is that they don't have to copy
a package onto their hard drive in order to install it. The
command works quite nicely from the mountpoint.
NFS's behaviour is a little weird if you want to share your CD-ROM over
the network. If I edit
/etc/exports on gamma to add the following line:
/cdrom -alldirs 10.0.0.1
I would expect alpha to be able to access the contents of a data CD-ROM located on gamma. If I put a data CD-ROM in gamma's CD-ROM drive, and at alpha type:
mount gamma:/cdrom /share
I get:
nfs: can't access /cdrom: Permission denied
Hmmmm... Let's try a
shutdown now at gamma; perhaps nfsd needs to re-read
/etc/exports. No, that made things worse, as the boot messages now include:
Starting final network daemons: mountdJun 3 15:25:48 gamma mountd[1537]: could not remount /cdrom: Invalid argument Jun 3 15:25:48 gamma mountd[1537]: bad exports list line /cdrom -alldirs 10.0.0.1
If I wait long enough, I'll also start to get periodic error messages at
Alt-F1. So what happened? Let's take a look at
pico /etc/fstab
# Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/acd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0
And there's one problem: I tried to export a filesystem that is not set
to mount automatically when I reboot. I can't export a filesystem that
isn't mounted locally. To complicate matters further, I can't export a
directory I've created, unless I create it as a subdirectory of
/usr. This is where NFS gets a bit weird. Try this at gamma:
mkdir /usr/cdrom
pico /etc/exports
and modify the line to read:
/usr/cdrom -alldirs 10.0.0.1
Save the change and issue a
shutdown now. This time there shouldn't be any error messages. Now try
and you'll see something like this:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/ad0s1a 49583 33637 11980 74% / /dev/ad0s1f 5996471 1069263 4447491 19% /usr /dev/acd0c 470754 470754 0 100% /usr/cdrom /dev/ad0s1e 19815 5671 12559 31% /var procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc mfs:1919 68647 1 63155 0% /tmp
Note that
/usr/cdrom was mounted for you; if you try
you'll see something like
mount /cdrom
cd9660: Device busy
cd /usr/cdrom
should show the contents of the CD-ROM. Now, at alpha,
mount gamma:/usr/cdrom /share
cd /share
should also show the contents of gamma's CD-ROM.
cd /
umount /share
You will have to be extra careful if you decide to export CD-ROMs; you
don't want to inadvertently eject a mounted CD-ROM or reboot without a
CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive. I usually leave the cdrom reference commented
out in
/etc/exports like so:
#/usr/cdrom -alldirs 10.0.0.1
and uncomment it out when I actually want to share my CD-ROM. I then need
to issue a
shutdown now so the
nfsd can mount the CD-ROM. If I try to mount it myself:
mount /usr/cdrom
I get:
mount: /usr/cdrom: unknown special file or file system
However, once
nfsd has mounted it, I can unmount it normally:
umount /usr/cdrom
This should get you started with NFS; read the man page for nfsd to learn how to give read-only access, group access, and user access.
Whenever you edit
/etc/exports, always test your changes at the
client. Mount the newly exported data to ensure that you haven't given the
client access to more data then you intended.
One final note on NFS: portmap can be a security risk on computers
attached to insecure networks such as the Internet. Usually, in a
networked environment, there is only one computer with the Internet
connection as it controls Internet access for the rest of the
network. Don't run the
nfsd on that computer.

This roundup covers power supply units for midrange and entry-level computers. Such models start from a modest wattage of 300W and a price of $20. Some of the products tested – the Ascot and InWin models, to be exact – come to the market not only individually but also together with same-brand system cases that have earned a reputation for a good quality at an appealing price.
Of course, I couldn't help including a couple of high-wattage 750W PSUs for enthusiasts and owners of large system cases (you know, it is hard to fit a 500W or higher PSU into a small PC case, see our article called 1000W Power Supply Unit Roundup for details) – you'll find them at the end of this article.
HEC (Ascot) Silent Pro A-360 (360W) and A-420 (420W)
Ascot is a trademark of HEC/Compucase that is known for turning out products with an appealing price/quality ratio. These PSUs are somewhat more expensive than average, but the high quality and functionality justify the pricing. On the other hand, Ascot PSUs are free from decorations (such as highlighting, transparent windows, etc) and meet the requirements of practical people who just need a good product that works.
Ascot PSUs come together with same-name system cases as well as individually but it is the same PSUs. Moreover, the internal design of the models with different wattage ratings is very similar, so I'll discuss the A-360 and A-420 both together here.
The PSUs are nothing extraordinary on the outside: a plain gray housing and a punched-out grid of the 120mm fan. The design of the housing is somewhat uncommon, though. A U-shaped cover is usually secured with four screws (five in FSP Group's products), but there are as many as nine screws here. Perhaps this allows to use a thinner sheet of metal since the additional screws ensure the necessary rigidity and the lack of rattle.
The internal design is ordinary, too. These PSUs lack Power Factor Correction (PFC): active PFC is not provided for even theoretically while the choke of passive PFC is just not installed in the corner. The output voltages are regulated jointly. A UC3843B chip is used as the main PWM-controller; the standby source is based on a TNY267PN chip.
I could find no fault with the quality of assembly and soldering. Everything is neat and tidy here.
The PSUs both comply with the ATX12V 2.0 standard. The combined allowable load on the +12V rail is 25A for the 360W model and 29A for the 420W model. That's exactly what the standard recommends for PSUs of such wattages.
The PSUs have the following cables and connectors:
- Mainboard cable with a 20+4 connector (44cm long)
- CPU cable with a 4-pin connector (45cm)
- One cable with one 6-pin connector for graphics cards in the A-360 and two such connectors in the A-420 (45cm)
- Two cables with two Molex connectors and one mini-plug for a floppy drive on each (45+19+19cm)
- One cable with one SATA power connector and two Molex connectors in the A-360 and with two SATA and two Molex connectors in the A-420 (45cm from the PSU to the first connector and 19cm to each next connector)
The mainboard cable is sleeved; the other cables are tied up with nylon straps.
The problem I can see here is that the PSUs have too few power connectors for SATA devices. I think that a modern PSU can do just fine with only two Molex plugs but must have more SATA connectors. This is a problem indeed since these PSUs are installed into the full-size Ascot 6AR2 and 6AR6 system cases that can accommodate more than a couple of hard disk drives.
You can read the UL certificate number at the bottom of the label: E199442. This denotes Compucase Enterprise Co., Ltd.

2011 Cy Young Award Winner: Dodgers Clayton Kershaw
I have not created a new post since November 2nd when I posted about our three Dodgers -Matt Kemp, Andre Ethier and Clayton Kershaw winning Gold gloves.
What a happy day in Los Angeles yesterday when it was announced that Clayton Kershaw had won the NL Cy Young Award! I was anxiously waiting for the results on Thursday. I was busy with a Webinar at work with phone and computer busy but I was keeping an eye on my droid. Sure enough it started beeping with the good news. But in addition to the good news there was an email from the Dodgers inviting us season ticket holders to attend the conference on the field of Dodger Stadium. What was I to do when I had taken the train to work and I was still in the middle of the webinar? Good thing it ended promptly at noon and there were no further questions.
the email said the conference was to start promptly at 1:30 p.m and that fans could start arriving at 12:30 p.m. I called to see if the company car was available. I was lucky! It was available! I then headed to see my boss and told him I had an emergency and had to leave but would be back later on.
What a great day being back at Dodger Stadium! Clayton Kershaw was there with his wife Ellen. Matt Kemp and James Loney were also there. Maury Wills was also there. Prior CY Young award winners Don Newcombe & Fernando Valenzuela were also there. Dodgers who have won the Cy Young: Don Newcombe (1986) Don Drysdale (1962), Sandy Koufax (1963, '65. '66), Mike Marshall (1974), Fernando Valenzuel (1981), Orel Hershiser (1988), Eric Gagne (2003) and Clayton Kershaw (2011).
Congratulations Clayton Kershaw!

One found dead in burning Hardwick homeJuly 02,2013
One found dead in burning home
HARDWICK Police and fire investigators are looking into the death of an unidentified person whose body was found in a burning house Monday afternoon in Hardwick, according to Vermont State Police.
Police withheld details about the person, pending an autopsy scheduled for today.
State police said Hardwick firefighters noticed smoke coming from an area of the town and found a mobile home burning on Terrace Hill Road at about 1:30 p.m.
While putting out the flames, firefighters forced their way into the home and found the person dead inside, according to state police.
The victim was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
Because of the circumstances, the Hardwick Fire Department requested an investigation into the fires origin and cause. Members of the Vermont State Police Fire Investigation Unit and investigators with the Division of Fire Safety carried out that probe.
The Hardwick Police Department also went to the scene and led the death investigation.
The body was taken to the office of the chief medical examiner in Burlington, where the autopsy scheduled for this morning is expected to identify the body.
State police said the home is a total loss with an approximate value of $30,000. Besides the death, no injuries were reported.
Police said more information would be released today after the autopsy.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A new report from a commission that studied the cost, availability and quality of... Full StoryVermont fish hatchery changes focus, looks inland
