Bee Cave City Council- 6.12.12
1) Before Council, the Zoning Board of Adjustment met to consider a variance for the water quality pond by the Presbyterian Church of Lake Travis. Steve Goetleb serves as General Contractor and spoke in favor of the variance. The design corporation, Frie Planning and Development spoke as to how the proposal meets the 4 pre-requisites of a variance.
2) The new Bee Cave Officers were introduced, each with very unique qualifications: Carl Neal (holds most of the force fitness records); Alice Hodgkin (focus on victim services), and Mario Cmet (comes from Southlake, Tx with specialty in accident reconstruction).
3) TXDot made a presentation regarding an update of road status and plans for our area. Lucas Short, Project Manager, and Don Nyland, Area Engineer discussed the status. Project designs are complete for areas between Falconhead West and Bee Cave, Falconhead West and Serene Hills, and Southwest Parkway and Oak Hill. These areas are only complete through design and construction will not begin until October, 2012.
The Southwest Parkway project is increasing drainage structures in area where Southwest Parkway and Highway 71 intersect. This should be finished by March 1, 2013. The Barton Creek job, adjacent to the City, has slowed due to a water line that needs extending. Look to finish and turn on Spanish Oaks signal some time next month. Once the work by the creek is complete, the speed limits will return to normal. They will likely have a signal in short order, but the hill has to be decreased to avoid rear end impacts.
Zelda Auslander asked about parameters regarding the use of landscaping of the City medians. Don Nyland said he is willing to listen to the City on ideas.
The issue of seal coating was discussed and Don mentioned that they are looking at new mixes.
There are only 80 feet of right of way on Hamilton Pool road, so widening is going to be an issue in the future. Once this goes to 4 or 5 lane sections, they will have to buy right-of-way and there isn't anything on the books for now.
4) Final Plat and Site and NPS plan for the Presbyterian Church were approved.
5) The council discussed quotes regarding a canopy to be placed at the front of the library. The second lowest bid was approved.
The start date for the repair of City Hall will begin the week of July 9, 2012 with an anticipated completion date of the end of October, 2012. The job will begin with repairs on the interior south end of the building. Then stucco and brick will be removed on the east side of the building beginning with scaffolding. It will take 7 days to remove brick, stucco and windows. Then the work will move to the west side for the same procedures.

Soul Manifesto Live!
The album has a dual personality. "Light My Fire," "Summertime" and "Morning of the Carnival" capture the melodic, harmonically advanced side of guitarist Jones. The remainder of the tunes are exercises in funk. While it may have been exciting to have been in the audience at Smoke in New York when this was recorded, the repeated one-chord funk action and heavy dance beats grow dull as this CD goes on.
Jones has assembled a fine band: tenor saxophonist Teodross Avery, organist and Rhodes pianist Will Boulware, bassist Lonnie Plaxico and drummer Kenwood Dennard. Rapper Paul Josephs (listed as providing "metrosonic concepts") also appears on a couple of tracks. Everyone gives his all on the funk tracks-Avery with his robust, bravura, extended-range lines; Jones with his fast, superimposed rhythms and side-stepping, winding phrases; and Boulware, Plaxico and Dennard laying down the pounding pulse. Jones' "Dissertation on the Blues," a Wes Montgomery-sounding tune, is the jazziest of the groove tunes. "Let the Music Take Your Mind," "Soul Makossa," "Soul Manifesto (The Manifesto)," "Live Bait" and "Groovebone (The Sermon)," several of which appeared on Jones' original Soul Manifesto CD on Blue Note two years ago, are all catchy, rhythmic performances. And if you're dancing, maybe you don't tire of the repetition.
The quieter, more atmospheric tunes ("Light My Fire," et. al.) show a consummate guitarist in the George Benson mold (with a kinship to Pat Martino also). They provide a much-needed break from the other tunes and serve to balance out the album.

Catalan's finest sneaker spot 24 Kilates has worked with all the heavy hitters in the Euro-sneaker game; New Balance, Asics, Reebok, they even showed up for the revival of Ellesse. They're back at it with the New Balance team, opting for a more trail ready look this time with the New Balance 581. However, they're not alone in this set of trail-inspired 581s, because Boston's Bodega, Japan's mita Sneakers, and South Korea's Kasina will also join in – all pictured in this nice group shot. Each colorway features a distinct color profile unique to each store, so continue reading for another full group shot (but before you go, see if you can guess which colorway belongs to which store!). via mita.

No surprise that the Bodega joints are the best colorway. I'm going to try to get my hands on a pair of those definitely. Everything else has been down before and sort of lacks originality.

Native History: Ponce de Leon Arrives in Florida; Beginning of the End
This Date in Native History: On April 2, 1513, Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de Leon landed on the southeastern coast of Florida, claiming the territory for the Spanish crown and forever changing life for Florida tribes.
Born in 1460, Ponce de Leon is credited with being part of Christopher Columbus' second expedition to the New World in 1493 before he went on to become the first European explorer to land on the Florida peninsula.
Ponce de Leon served as governor of the Spanish colony of San Juan (modern-day Puerto Rico). There, he was known as a conquistador with a reputation for taking Natives as slaves, said Jerald Milanich, emeritus professor of archaeology at the University of Florida.
"He found Indians in the Caribbean and was not a nice person," Milanich said. "He did not hesitate to do whatever he wanted in terms of cruelty to conquer the Native people."
In 1512, Ponce de Leon received a royal contract that gave him three years to look for a fabled island north of the Bahamas. Believing he would find wealth—or the rumored fountain of youth—Ponce de Leon organized a crew and sailed north in March of 1513.
He made landfall on April 2, likely near present day St. Augustine, though no records of the expedition exist and the exact location is unknown, Milanich said. Most historians cite second-hand records that surfaced about 90 years later.

What We Already Know:
Hard Corps: Uprising is the latest game in Konami's storied run 'n' gun series, Contra. Except ... it's not. Due to corporate shenanigans Hard Corps is not an official Contra game. Whatever you call it, Uprising's smooth action, bright graphics and fresh ideas (all courtesy of Guilty Gear dev Arc System Works) make it one to watch.
What We're Seeing Now:
Didja assume that Hard Corps: Uprising was a follow-up to 1994's Contra: Hard Corps? I sure did. Seems it ain't so, though, and not just because of the naming issue. Hard Corps '94 was defined by under-developed stages and frequent, apocalyptic boss fights. In contrast, E3's Hard Corps: Uprising demo featured a very long and varied playfield, punctuated with a handful of modest mini-bosses. For my money it felt a lot closer to 1992's Contra III than 1994's Hard Corps.
That's good, though. Ever since Hard Corps these games have emphasized boss encounters to the detriment of level design, so it's nice to see the balance tip in the other direction. The Uprising demo stage featured extensive platforming sections, classic-feeling mini-boss encounters, Energy Zone-style laser gauntlets, Metal Slug-esque exploding barrels, vintage Contra pill-box turrets, a speedy hoverbike chase sequence, and a massive final boss. It was essentially Contra's Greatest Hits - The Stage, rendered in a very pretty combination of 3D backdrops and high-res 2D sprites.
The challenges are varied but so are our heroes' abilities. The final game'll have four unique-playing characters but the demo only featured Bahamut, a guy in a torn cape, and Krystal, a lady in sleek cyber-armor. Take note: These kids can move. They're much more mobile than prior Contra heroes, with a super-fast ninja run, a Guilty Gear air dash, a double jump and a counter move that lets you send bullets back at foes or pass through enemies while running. They can also hold position or strafe while firing. With all the new options I felt a little out of control at first, but soon I was happily air-dashing over bullets.
Yeah, Hard Corps: Uprising is definitely a Contra game, and to this fan's eyes it's easily the most exciting one in years. Arc System Works is clearly bringing its "A" game here, and I think I'm in love.

Commercial real estate investors may soon have a new option to protect against market losses, thanks to a series of price indexes published jointly by Moody's Investors Service and Real Estate Analytics LLC (REAL). The set of market indicators are expected to provide a platform for trading commercial real estate derivatives, which can be used to hedge investments.
Engineered by the MIT Center for Real Estate, the 29 Moody's/REAL Commercial Property Price Indices draw on repeat sales data collected by Real Capital Analytics, a New York-based research firm that tracks transactions of $2.5 million or more. The indexes reflect the difference in sums paid for specific properties compared with the last time those assets changed hands, which provides a direct tie-in to current market prices.
Derivatives contracts enable investors to quickly stake a position in a market without having to acquire a hard asset. Portfolio managers can use derivatives to quickly achieve diversification goals without going through the process of finding and acquiring properties. As a hedge against lost value on a hard asset, an investor can sell short against the index, so that market losses (and lost value in owned real estate) will be offset by the increased value of the derivative contract.
Sound complicated? It is. That's one of the reasons derivatives haven't taken a strong hold in U.S. commercial real estate, and educating investors is an ongoing challenge for derivatives brokers here.
The field is expanding, however, and other indexes already track commercial real estate values to provide a basis for derivatives trading. Those include the NCREIF Property Index published by the National Council of Real Estate Investment Fiduciaries, which uses appraisal data to calculate value changes. Earlier this year, NCREIF inked agreements with four banks for a total of seven that provide derivatives trading based on its index.
The market is better established in the United Kingdom, where real estate acquisitions incur a 4% tax that isn't applied to derivatives. In 2006, trading based on an index published by U.K. firm Investment Property Databank totaled nearly $8 billion. That equates to about 10% of commercial real estate investment volume in the U.K., according to Neal Elkin, president of Real Estate Analytics.
Given that U.S. real estate transactions amounted to approximately $330 billion in 2006, there is the potential for "tens of billions of dollars" in domestic derivatives trading, Elkin says. "Once these tools are better understood, we'll go very quickly past that, but we're not there yet," he says.
Proponents of the Moody's/REAL indexes say their data will reflect values more quickly and accurately than systems that rely on appraisals. "The Moody's/REAL indices track same-property price changes," says Moody's senior vice president Sally Gordon. "This method avoids the lags and distortions that can occur with other commercial property value measurements using appraisals or average prices."
The new system's creators hope that data from Real Capital Analytics and analysis by Moody's will instill investors with confidence and boost the commercial real estate derivatives market. In order to tap that anticipated business, Real Estate Analytics is forming a brokerage division with exclusive rights to the Moody's/REAL indexes and non-exclusive derivatives offerings based on other commercial real estate indexes.
Elkin believes the market is ripe for derivatives to catch on with commercial real estate investors. "In a market that's going up 10% a year, nobody's thinking about hedging their portfolio. But we really are at a tipping point, where the hedging of assets starts to make sense."
Commercial real estate investors may soon have a new option to protect against market losses, thanks to a series of price indexes published jointly by Moody's Investors Service and Real Estate Analytics LLC (REAL). The set of market indicators are expected to provide a platform for trading commercial real estate derivatives, which can be used to hedge investments.

Private initiative and ownership is a fundamental human right. The defense of an exclusive right to market one's ideas in the form of intellectual property, the cornerstone of modern enterprise, is a morally necessary incentive for human creativity. Respect for property rights on the national and international level is, therefore, vital to meeting the needs of the human family.

VCA Anderson Animal Hospital Testimonials
We value feedback from our clients. Please share your story with us by writing a testimonial.
VCA Anderson is our Choice
-Art and Rosemary Beck from Lakewood, CO
Our animals have been cared for by VCA Anderson Animal Hospital for over 30 years. We have always been pleased and impressed with the veterinarians' excellent, prompt, caring service. At one point, one of our cats had to be referred to a cardiologist for another opinion. The cardiologist said the medical notes were detailed and extensive and was impressed himself. We would recommend this hospital and all the veterinarians to anyone needing care for their animals. You could not find finer care.
-Alice Lykins from Denver, CO
I have been using the services of VCA Anderson for many years. The staff has always been professional, while showing kindness in the care of my pets. I can't imagine having anyone else care for my furry and feathered family members. I'm grateful for the relationship that has developed with these people over the past years. Would I recommend them? You bet!
VCA Anderson is the best
-lori and bob peeples from edgewater, CO
we have been been clients for over 14yrs. Always received the best care, service and support from everyone there. They not only take care of our pets when sick, but have taught us so much over the years on how to keep them healthy as possible.They are always there for us, through the fun times and sad times with our pets. we would not take our babies anywhere else.
The best things that ever happened to me
-MaryJoel from Lakewood, CO
The first best thing that ever happened in my adult life was adopting two wonderful tabbies from the Cat Care Society in Lakewood. The next best thing was being referred to VCA Animal Hospital for their care. Jake and Sarah were very special furry children and they gave me years of joy. Unfortunately, they have both gone to the Rainbow Bridge. But I now have a yellow tabby (Willy) affectionately known as El Diablo, who receives the same loving care as my very precious Jake and Sarah. I would never go anywheere else for vet care. VCA Anderson is the best >^,,^< Thank you to the entire staff, especially Dr. Lutz.
Best, Most Compassionate Vets and Staff Ever
-Abby Wright from Brighton, CO
Pet Name: Francis, Britney
I have been to many vet clinics in the Brighton area where I live, but I will travel the 45 minutes from Brighton whenever I need to have my rats, dog, or cat looked at for these reasons:
1.) VCA has the highest quality of care of any vet clinic I've been to. I always see Dr. Norton. She has saved my rats' lives a few times and was honest with me when I asked her if I should put one to sleep. She is always very humane and compassionate with my animals, and I have seen ALL my animals mistreated at other vet clinics in the past -- and these clinics usually charge hundreds of dollars for this low-quality care. Dr. Norton also is very knowledgeable and will find what's wrong with your pet but will not do unnecessary tests that will cost you lots of money. She has excellent judgment and will always be honest with you, and she has a friendly and fun personality and the most genuine compassion I have ever seen. She is an angel as far as I'm concerned.
2.) In fact, all the staff is always very friendly. They usually offer to get you hot tea or some other drink while you are waiting for the vet. You can also tell that they love animals and truly care about them.
3.) The clinic does not charge outrageous amounts because they truly care about the animals, NOT about taking your money and ripping you off.
4.) This vet clinic is open on evenings and Saturdays when other vet clinics are closed, and they are flexible with when you can get an appointment; often times I make my appointment on the day that I schedule for it.
5.) The clinic is always clean, and my animals always come back clean and as healthy as they can be.
If you want high-quality care for your animals, especially for your rodents (because good rodent vets are hard to find) I can't stress enough that this is the place to go.
-Beth from Denver, CO
I have been taking my kitten to VCA since she was 8 weeks, she is only 9 months now, but I recently took in a stray who is 8 years old. Dr. Edwards has been unbelievably patient with all my phone calls regarding behavior issues that have arisen with the new cat! Would not take either of them anywhere else for their needs.
Their Hearts Rule
-Tracy King from Edgewater, CO
Pet Name: Sammy
I have three dogs and one bird. All of my pets have at one time or another needed the services of VCA Anderson Animal Hospital. In my opinion, VCA's strengths are their hands on one-on-one approach to caring for pets in all situations and especially in emergency situations. The staff at VCA is the most personable and friendly of all vets I have visited. I attribute VCA to saving my male boxer, Sammy's life four years ago. I brought Sammy in on a Monday morning because he was dying from an upper respiratory illness. Everyone pitched in to help Sammy survive. They even gave me training on how to take care of Sammy and showed me how to apply the treatments. They did this because they truly cared about his well-being. It's more than just a job to them. Sammy is now a thriving four-year-old who I could not imagine living without. VCA is also the only vet I choose to use for treating my cockatiel, Charlie. Dr. Edwards has treated Charlie since February of 2000. Thanks to Dr. Edward's avian skills, Charlie is living a long and happy life. He turns 28 years old this September! I go out of my way to bring my pets to VCA. They will go the extra mile!
Wonderful and caring staff and doctors
-KIrsten from Bennett, CO
Pet Name: Heartsong
I've been looking for an Avian vet for quite some time now that I've got an older cockatiel, and came across Dr. Edwards at VCA Anderson by word of mouth through Alameda East, and I couldn't be happier! Not only was my bird's name up on the dry erase board for that day, but Dr. Edwards handled my anti-social cockatiel expertly and made him (and myself) feel comfortable. She gave me GREAT advice about vitamins as well as prescriptions that have made him more spry and spunkier than he's ever been :) Thank you, Dr. Edwards and the VCA Anderson staff for truly caring!
The Best Care For My Little One
-Alicia from Lakewood, CO
Pet Name: Paris France
When I adopted my baby girl, I initially went to another vet. Although they were a good clinic, there was something missing. Then I learned that Dr. Edwards worked with her at Table Mountain Shelter and was referred to her practice. I knew when we first walked in that this place was special. Everyone is so kind and loving to Paris France and I couldn't think of a better place to take her when she's not feeling well or needs a routine appointment. Dr. Lutz has been her primary care provider, for most of her time with me, and I trust, implicitly, the care she has given and will continue to give my sweet p. My baby girl is going through a tough time, right now, but I know she couldn't be in better hands. They give her the love and attention I give, when I can't be there. I love you all!

Why can't these people ever dress up as Mohammed? I'm sure Muslims have a sense of humor too.
Daily Mailreports a Carnegie Mellon University student was charged Friday with indecent exposure by campus police after a Catholic bishop complained about her parading nude from the waist down while dressed as the pope.
A male student who was nude also was charged, but it wasn't immediately clear what he was doing during the Pittsburgh school's spring fine arts parade last month.
Katherine O'Connor, 19 was arrested after she paraded nude, handing out condoms with a cross shaved into her pubic hair.

Soft Machine Legacy: Live Adventures
Once that's clarified, however, it's still a fact that this is no mere exercise in repertory. This quartet takes the music in directions that the fusion-era band would perhaps never have countenanced, and nowhere is this clearer than on the opening "Has Riff II." Credited as a group composition, it is, in its way, as singular as anything from the days when the band wasn't playing the same set the same way twice.
Guitarist John Etheridge's "Grapehound" echoes Karl Jenkins's way with a cyclical riff, and is consequently more evocative of Soft Machine's fusion era, especially when the composer's solo consists of the hyperactive runs that are a hallmark of his work. In contrast to Hopper, Roy Babbington is a more conventional bass guitarist. Nowhere is the difference between the two mens' approaches more evident than in their note choices. On Jenkins's "The Nodder," Babbington takes a back seat role, emphasizing the riff's integral part of Jenkins's compositional methodology.
The same composer's "Song of Aeolus" gets as close to funky as anything here, but does, at least, prove that the bass-drums cartel of Babbington and John Marshall can nail a groove with the best of them. There's also a certain restraint in the group's collective approach to dynamics, affording the music a chance to breathe. Etheridge's deft solo also shows how he can vary his approach, as might be expected from such a professional.
Hopper's "Facelift" is taken with a similar level of restraint, especially pertinent in view of the circumstances. Theo Travis, on tenor sax, proves what a fertile improviser he can be, and the quartet as a whole proves appreciative of Hopper's compositional quirks. This is manifested in the sheer openness of the music, which by comparison with the band's apparently more customary approach shows how its collective take on fusion isn't necessarily a matter of little more than technocratic flash. The segue into Travis' "The Last Day," with the composer on flute, is a seamless underscoring of the same point.
Track Listing: Has Riff II; Grapehound; The Nodder; In The Back Room; Song of Aeolus; The Relegation of Pluto / Transit; Gesolreut; Facelift; The Last Day.
Personnel: Theo Travis: tenor sax, flute; John Etheridge: guitar; Roy Babbington: bass; John Marshall: drums.

Despite the name, there's little light and carefree about San Francisco trio Weekend's mascara-smeared post-punk sound, which, at times, conjures images of the Cure at its bleakest.
But while the band's debut cast the crew in stark black-and-white, its sophomore album, Jinx, introduces varying shades of gray. Witness "It's Alright," a rhythmic, guitar-driven monster where the sunlight nearly reaches the bottom of the well. Even so, the band is at its best when it's at its most moribund, and there are plenty of songs here as cold and towering as New York City skyscraper-lined streets on a winter's night.
Cities Aviv and Golden Death Music also perform.

Cleanup systems are required to protect the environment from accidental and routine releases of tritium.
What are the underlying factors that change tritium gas, T2, to tritiated water, HTO?
Tritium will be a fuel at future fusion reactors, but health risks for tritium differ between its form as T2 gas and its form as HTO. Because tritium in the water form is about 25,000 times more hazardous than in the gas form, evaluation of human health risks for a number of situations around future fusion reactor plants depends on knowledge of how tritium converts from T2 to HTO. A series of experimental and theoretical studies were undertaken to measure needed parameters and to calculate others. This effort resulted in the development of validated rate equations, which spanned more than seven orders of magnitude in tritium concentration. Health risks from a wide variety of possible situations can now be calculated. These calculations provide input for future design and siting requirements for tritium-fueled fusion reactors.

Nestled in their small rural home, tucked away amid flower gardens, vegetable plots and acres of towering corn, Judy Billing and her husband, Leroy, sometimes feel shielded from the ills of the world.
Last week, though, the Clark County couple got a reminder that no one, anywhere, is beyond the reach of would-be scammers.
They received a phone call from a man who seemed to know a fair amount about them, including their full names and address.
"He said, 'I'm here to warn you and tell you that very soon there's a card that all people who have Medicare will have to have,'" Billing said, recounting the conversation.
The caller said Billing would need to keep the new card with her existing Medicare card because doctors and hospitals soon would begin requiring Medicare patients to present both before providing any type of care. Supposedly, the new requirement was a component of the Affordable Care Act — or Obamacare.
The man on the phone told Billing he'd mail the new card to her home. All he needed from her, he said, was a bit more information from her and her husband — "little things" such as Social Security and bank-account numbers.
Similar phone calls have prompted alerts from a variety of consumer advocates, including AARP, the Better Business Bureau and the Federal Trade Commission.
The organizations warn that identity thieves and hucksters are trying to capitalize on confusion surrounding this fall's debut of the "marketplaces" — or online exchanges — that the Affordable Care Act created to help uninsured Americans find, and buy, coverage that's right for them.
Callers typically tell seniors that they have to take immediate action — say, enroll in a particular program, sign up for an electronic account or secure the all-important "new card" — if they want to preserve their Medicare benefits.
"Scammers always want to get your money before you have time to stop and think," the FTC said in its advisory.
"Enrollment in the new Health Insurance Marketplace doesn't start until October 1, 2013. Anyone who claims to be able to sign you up sooner is trying to scam you."
And, even after Oct. 1, Medicare participants won't need a new card.
Fortunately, Billing, 76, didn't fall for the pitch she received.
The man who called her house — the one who already knew a few things about her and her husband — didn't know this: She used to be the director of a senior center, and, in that role, she encountered countless scams.
Billing said she told the caller that before she'd answer any of his questions, he'd have to answer a few of hers: What's your name? What's your telephone number? What's the name of the company you work for?
Billing said the man began to curse.
"He went into, 'Go to H-E-double-L,' and he went on and on and on with that phrase — over and over and over. And I said, kind of under my breath but yet into the phone, I said, 'Well, I'm not going there, but it sounds like you are,' and I hung up."
Billing laughs at the episode now, but she knows there's nothing funny about preying on seniors — especially those already worried about the Affordable Care Act and how it might affect them.
"It irks me. It irritates me. It makes me think they're very low-class people who would do that — who would take advantage of people like us who've worked hard all our lives and barely have enough to get by on."
Billing's advice: "Don't let them frighten you. You shouldn't be afraid."
After all, she said, seniors have a powerful weapon at their disposal.
"It's your phone," she said. "You've got it in your hand. Just hang it up."

My friend was saying that over there, that is what the geeks wear. Right down to that type of jacket he had on and that Sheldon liked. The thought was maybe it was a nod to that similar culture as as our geeks in England. Or maybe just a coincidence.

Last week, during Paramore's "Last Word" interview with reporters, Hayley Williams promised fans that the band would "definitely" be releasing new music in 2011 … and, it looks like she meant it. Well, sort of.
On Tuesday, Williams took to her blog to post the chorus of a song called "In the Mourning," a winsome, windswept thing that, while new — and actually pretty great — probably won't be showing up on a Paramore album anytime soon.
"A few weeks ago I posted some new lyrics up on Tumblr. Wanted to share the melody with anyone who's asked me to post it," Williams wrote on her blog. "This is just the chorus … I didn't want to post the full thing yet because I don't want people thinking it's a new Paramore song. This is just something I wrote for fun. Hope you likes!"
Williams did post the lyrics to "In the Mourning" a few weeks prior, and at the time, fans were speculating that they might be related to one of the new demos guitarist Taylor York had written for the group. Now, it doesn't sound like that's the case, although Williams and Paramore's other remaining members — York and bassist Jeremy Davis — are apparently still writing and demoing new material.
Late last month, just days after it was announced that founding Paramore members Josh and Zac Farro would be leaving the band, Zac posted a demo by his new project, Tunnel.
In February, Paramore will launch a South American tour — their first since the Farro brothers' departure — with York's brother Justin filling in on guitar and veteran stickman Josh Freese on drums.Read also...

Updated Patch Tool URL
Initial Public Release
Products Affected
An incorrect IOS image was loaded on to CE500 products at the factory.
CE500 products have been shipped with an incorrect image. The loaded image does not contain the HTML content necessary for setting up the device. This results in a "File Not Found" error when configuring the affected switch.
A switch is affected by this problem if the system serial number (SN) is on the SN list. For the list of affected SNs, refer to the Affected Software Versions and System Serial Numbers section.
This problem affects a CE500 switch if both criteria below are present:
The IOS version is 12.2.25(SEG).
The System Serial Number (SN) is on the list provided. Please follow the link to get to this list. SN data on this spreadsheet is arranged in alpha-numeric order.
When setting up the switch for the first time, cutomers will receive a "File Not Found" error similar to one shown below captured from a Windows Explorer browser.
There is no workaround.
The solution for customers who experience this problem is to install and run the patch using the procedures below.
Corrective Procedures
Log on to CCO (http://www.cisco.com) and download the 12.2(25)SEG PATCH TOOL (CE500) (registered customers only) onto the PC.
Note: For customers not yet a CCO users: A registration is required for CCO access.
Double click the icon 12.2(25)SEG PATCH TOOL (CE500) on the Desktop to launch the tool. Before clicking the "Repair" button, follow the instructions in the pop-up as shown below.
After clicking the "Repair" button at the bottom of the tool, the user must do the following:
Do not disconnect the PC, switch cable, or power until the tool indicates otherwise.
Do not close the tool until it indicates to do so. While the tool is working, the user can monitor the progress bar on the tool.
Note: It is very important to follow the instructions in the bullet points above. If the "do nots" are not adhered to, it is likely that the unit will become unusable. In this case, customers should boot up the switch. If the system LED is solid green, then the switch is still functioning, and customers can continue with the patch process. If the system LED is not solid green, then the switch would need to be replaced by a regular RMA process.
At the end of this process, the tool will force the switch to reload. The user will notice the connection lost during the reload. This is an expected behavior.
When the tool completes the execution, it will pop up a window indicating the user can proceed with Express Setup. This pop-up window indicates that the switch has now been reset to the correct factory default state.
If desired, the user can now refer to the document Getting Started Guide for the Catalyst Express 500 Switches for details on how to set up the switches.
If you require further assistance, or if you have any further questions regarding this field notice, please contact the Cisco Systems Technical Assistance Center (TAC) by one of the following methods:

Chevrolet vs. Toyota"¦Online Activity Heats Up
Toyota is closing on Chevrolet as the top brand in the US automotive market. Can Toyota's web site be contributing to their success? Based on Compete's Website Engagement Study, the answer is yes.
A look at traffic shows that Toyota was consistently ahead of Chevrolet in the number of people visiting their site until the October Malibu launch. The heavy marketing push for Malibu drove traffic increases of 30% and more and Chevrolet.com exceeded 2 million unique visitors for three months in a row, until January, when Toyota reversed a downtrend and again surpassed Chevy.
What does this mean?
People visiting the Chevrolet site are 37% less likely to visit one of the four key online shopping tools than the Toyota site visitors.
Why is that important?
Compete data shows that those who purchased a vehicle were twice as likely to use a shopping tool on an OEM site.
What is causing the difference?
In a complex industry like automobiles there are a myriad of forces at work that contribute to the online behavior of consumers researching and shopping for cars. Some of the suspects are: the source of traffic, overall marketing efforts, website construction and navigation, consumer targeting, and of course the brand and product preferences of consumers.

let the weather prevent you from getting to the 27 yard line. Now you
can practice around the clock with the
AAA-27 yard shooter develops wall chart to help you learn how to win at home.
About the Chart:
The "new" Wall Chart is a digital photo quality picture of trap 2 b at the World Championship background in Sparta Illinois. It is a huge wall mural that is 36 inches high and 10 feet wide (also available in the smaller 8 foot width, 30" high). When you stand 13 feet from the ten foot wide chart, the moves you make are the same as shooting 16 yards. You stand 24 feet from it to duplicate the 27 yard line.
On the smaller 8 foot wide model the chart can be used as close as 10' for 16 yards and back to 19' for 27 yards. The six foot chart is used from the same distance as the 8 foot chart. The New 53 inch model can be used from 6 feet back to about 12 feet from the wall it is on.
Each target has a lead mark to teach the proper leads required to hit the target. There are 13 targets on the chart with their corresponding leads. There are two lower targets for working on the first shot in doubles drills.
The chart comes with a detailed but easy to follow 21 page write up with some pictures on how to use the wall chart system. The chart is very durable and will not easily rip or tear. The charts are produced by a digital printer on banner material which is reinforced vinyl and will stand up to any kind of weather.
Twenty-one shooters that made last years All-American teams use the Wall Chart.

Who uses the chart:
use the chart?
I developed this method because I was running retriever field trials years ago and had no time to practice. I found I could get great results with hardly any practice. I have over 300 one hundred straights at 16 yards (25 of them were in 2005) and 8 All Ontario Championships. I can stay AAA27AA just dry firing at home and shooting competition. Most people know how to lead each target but cannot make the correct move often enough to win. This corrects your bad moves, gives you a smooth swing and the proper muscle memory to make the shot.
much does the chart cost?

Think back to the cesspool that MySpace had become in 2008.
Now imagine if MySpace — that MySpace — were the #1 website in the world.
But that's ridiculous, you say. MySpace sucked, didn't innovate, and had a terrible business plan. It had no chance of succeeding long-term, especially not against a smart upstart like Facebook!
Except that MySpace did have one thing going for it, at least for a short time, that no other social network had: gobs and gobs and freaking gobs of money.
And that mighty money might have been enough to keep MySpace in the social media catbird seat if the Internet back in 2005 had operated under the FCC's proposed "new net neutrality" rules, which could be enacted as soon as this summer.
Yes, imagine a world in which your online life is still dominated by MySpace. Do you feel your retinas burning from the flashing gifs on the lime green page backgrounds? Ladies, are you done sorting through the hook-up requests in your message inbox?
This is why we must fight to maintain net neutrality — real net neutrality … not this potentially new bastard love child "net neutrality" born from the political fornication between massive telecom conglomerates and an FCC chairman whose previous experience (go figure) was to … wait for it … lobby on behalf of the industries he's now in charge of regulating.
Here's how MySpace could have ruled a "net-neutral" web
In 2005, News Corp bought MySpace, beating out Viacmon (which so angered Sumner Redstone that he fired CEO Tom Freston for not bidding enough to win the acquisition).
It's easy to forget now, but this was a huge deal when it happened, and Rupert Murdoch's News Corp had every incentive to put the full brunt of its deep influence and deeper pockets behind a push to make MySpace successful and grow it into the biggest, most powerful social network on the web — the perfect place for News Corp to promote all of its other media holdings.
But there was a big problem for Murdoch, News Corp, and MySpace: they could advertise MySpace all they wanted, but they couldn't pay for MySpace to be in an "Internet fast lane" that would have given it an unfair advantage over competitors no matter how much MySpace sat there and continued to get stale and, you know, suck to actually use.
Instead, MySpace had to actually compete. On the merits of its platform. And we know how that turned out.
Yet, if these proposed new rules had been in effect then, Murdoch could have paid Comcast and AT&T and the other big ISPs money to ensure that MySpace traffic was faster than traffic for other websites. You don't need me to tell you how important page load and download speeds are. Again, it would have given MySpace a huge competitive advantage, even if it was gained solely by Murdoch emptying his couch cushions at Comcast and its brethren's doorstep.
Would this alone have been enough to create a today in which MySpace still ruled the social media roost? There is no way to know for sure. But it's undeniable that it would have been much harder for even a site like Facebook, still in its infancy at the time, to compete … simply because they joined the race late and didn't yet have a huge financial backing.
This is, of course, the position of power that Facebook sits in now. And while Facebook is so uber-powerful and rich today that it can simply acquire upstarts like Instagram and WhatsApp who threaten it in any way (or simply to buy the user bases), at least we have an open web where upstarts like Instagram and WhatsApp are possible.
Could these services have developed in a "net neutral" world where ISPs require additional tolls if you want a real chance at delivering content to their users? Maybe. Depending on their initial financial backing. But the barrier to innovation would go way, way up … and the likelihood of disruption would go way, way down.
So, basically, these essential elements that make the Internet so special would erode.
And in the long-term, everyone loses — except the big ISPs, who make a hell of a lot more money. The established power players who surely wouldn't mind thwarting competition, even at a higher cost. (And the politicians whose pockets they line.)
Here is what I've read on the subject so you can read it too
I am no expert on this subject. I just did some reading on it this morning and wanted to pass along what I learned and start a dialogue. (Especially if anyone wants to jump in here and add more nuance and context to the discussion.)
I recommend you peruse the following links at your earliest convenience, and then follow the advice of Tim Wu — who wrote "Goodbye, Net Neutrality; Hello, Net Discrimination" for the New Yorker blog — and send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com with your thoughts. That's Tom Wheeler, the chairman of the FCC I referred to above, the guy previously served as president of the National Cable Television Association (NCTA) and CEO of the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA).
From a May 02, 2013 article by Time about Wheeler's appointment to the FCC chairmanship:
Referring to Wheeler's lengthy experience as a lobbyist for two of the industries he will now be regulating, Obama joked that his nominee is "like the Jim Brown or Bo Jackson of telecom.
Nice … Obama's got jokes.
Too bad this quote by Candidate Obama in 2007 looks like the real joke (via Wu's New Yorker piece):
"The answer is yes," Obama replied. "I am a strong supporter of net neutrality." Explaining, he said, "What you've been seeing is some lobbying that says that the servers and the various portals through which you're getting information over the Internet should be able to be gatekeepers and to charge different rates to different Web sites…. And that I think destroys one of the best things about the Internet—which is that there is this incredible equality there."
Also read this, "The Case Against ISP Tolls," posted on the Netflix blog, which provides a simple explanation of a) why Comcast is such a bastard, and b) why ISPs will be able to wield so much power if net discrimination becomes a reality.
In sum, Comcast is not charging Netflix for transit service. It is charging Netflix for access to its subscribers. Comcast also charges its subscribers for access to Internet content providers like Netflix. In this way, Comcast is double dipping by getting both its subscribers and Internet content providers to pay for access to each other.
And read this, posted by Ryan Singel (former editor of Wired's Threat Level blog) at Medium: "How The FCC Plans to Save the Internet by Destroying It: An Explainer"
The FCC will kill the internet in order to save it.
Note: This is a long post so here's the TL;DR.
1) The FCC has a very simple way to create simple, fair and enforceable rules to protect innovation, free speech and commerce. It lacks the courage and (perhaps) political capital to re-grant itself this power.
2) Lacking this power, the FCC is relying on a small loophole given to it by the courts.
3) That loophole requires the FCC to allow Verizon, Comcast and AT&T to create slow and fast lanes.
4) The loophole also allows ISPs have to strike individual deals with sites and apps. The rates for non-slow service can vary hugely. Those services that don't pay will get relegated to the slow lane.
5) The FCC wants to call this "net neutrality." It's nothing of the sort and the proposal needs to be killed. It's a bargain that will kill innovation on the net.
6) Even if you are a progressive who loves Obama, the best thing you can do is help kill this proposal and show there is political will for real internet protection.
It is a long post. And the TL;DR sums it up well, but you should still click over and read the whole thing. The full context is important.
Also read this piece from The Guardian by Dan Gillmor, entitled "The FCC is about to axe-murder net neutrality. Don't get mad – get even."
It includes this advice for how to let your voice be heard and try to make a difference:
Don't stop with Obama, of course. He's made it absolutely clear which side he's on (hint: not ours). We all need to ask our legislators – in your communities, in your states, in Washington – whether they want to discourage innovation and free speech by giving control of this essential public utility to a tiny oligopoly. Then:
- At the local level, push for community broadband networks, owned and operated by the public. (Waiting for Google Fiber? You might as well wait to win the lottery. Google is not your daddy, or your savior.) The community broadband success stories are already dramatic …
- … so dramatic that the telecom cartel has frantically worked to get state legislatures to prevent them from existing in the first place. Tell your state legislators that this is an unacceptable intrusion on your community's right to govern itself.
- Finally, tell your member of the US House of Representatives and your US senators that they have a job to do – to ensure the future of innovation and free speech in a digital world. In particular, tell them that internet access is a public utility and should be treated as such.
And finally, a post from The Verge with a great headline: The Internet is Fucked (but we can fix it)
What do you think?
Very curious to get your thoughts on this.
Ultimately, it seems pretty simple: the big ISPs don't want to be treated like utilities so they can make a lot more money … but regulating them like utilities may be the only way to ensure an open, fair Internet for everyone.
Big corporate interests on one side … everyone else and the future of one of the most groundbreaking and influential technologies in world history on the other.
This is a fight worth fighting.

Southern Nevada excursion May 9 & 10
Schedule and Itinerary
This excursion is prompted by the fact that on Saturday May 9 Marta Becket will give her final performance of the season at the Amargosa Opera House. You can opt in and opt out at any point, and all activities are optional. There is no fee to participate; you book your own overnight accommodations (info below) and you pay as you go. E-mail any questions for a prompt response.
Pahrump 11:30 am 5/9
Unless you are headed directly back to Las Vegas you will want to fill up with gas before we leave Pahrump. And you may want to lay in provisions as there are no grocery stores or restaurants on the agenda until Sunday breakfast.
Ash Meadows afternoon 5/9
Death Valley Junction evening 5/9
From here it's nine miles to Death Valley Junction, site of the Amargosa Opera House. Ticket Prices are $15 for Adults, $12 for children 5 to 12 (Please no children under 5 years old); reservations strongly recommended.
You should book your rooms right away at one of these two options:
There are four rooms still available at the Amargosa Hotel (760-852-4441), adjacent to the Opera House. These are modest accommodations, but perfectly adequate. When you call, mention that you are taking one of the rooms reserved by David Toll.
All of us will cross back into Nevada to meet at the Longstreet for breakfast at 9 am Sunday. Reminder: this is Mothers' Day.
Sunday morning 5/10
9 am breakfast at the Longstreet. Those folks returning to Las Vegas after breakfast can retrace the route through Pahrump, or go north with us the 16 miles to US 95 at Lathrop Wells and turn south.
Rhyolite and the GoldWell Open Air Museum
Sunday afternoon 5/10
Lunch is available in Beatty if you've run out of picnic supplies.
This is the end of the excursion and we'll disperse homeward from here. If you will join us for some or all of this jaunt, please send me an e-mail so we can keep a rough count and make sure that our arrangements are adequate. Feel free to forward this link to anyone who'd enjoy the chance to explore and experience Nevada in company with agreeable and interesting people.
Happy Highways,
David W. Toll

The roster is set
The Indians have finalized their Opening Day roster, sending Tom Mastny to the minors to make room for newcomer Craig Breslow. I'm not sure I like this move (or, for that matter, the Cliff Lee, David Dellucci or Jorge Julio moves), but we'll see how it (and the others) pan out. I'm just hoping Ben Francisco does get a chance at some point this year, as I think he's the Asdrubal Cabrera of 2008.
I also hope the Indians finally, at some point, get rid of the dead weight that is Andy Marte. Look, Mark, we know you have your pride and don't want to admit that trade was a failure; but in case you haven't noticed, it hasn't worked out so well for the Red Sox either, and we still have Kelly Shoppach, who is probably one of the top 10 catchers in the league and he doesn't even play every day for us.
Given the choice, I'd much rather see Josh Barfield, because even if Barfield is hitting .050 as a fifth infielder, he plays outstanding defense and runs well! You certainly can't claim the latter for Marte, and given what's happened the last couple days you can't claim the former either.
And by the way, in other baseball-related news, the Red Sox lost this morning. I love the city of Boston, I may want to live there at some point in my life, but today seems a little sweeter because the Red Sox lost. And now that that series is over, the baseball world can go back to normal and play the games at night.

Your shopping cart is empty.
Music writers often describe albums as "baby making music". Usually this means an album full of R&B slow jams designed for you to have sex to; The Weeknd, Frank Ocean, Kels, the second Ready For The World album. Shit you play when you lay a broad down on satin sheets, after the champagne and bubble bath foreplay session in the heart shaped tub. Valentine's day grooves. This is not that. TRPL BLK's Big Dick Niggas Eat Pussy Too has no songs about rubbing backs, or delivering sweet, slow kisses. There's a lot of songs about cunnilingus though, and they're (un)fortunately catchy. You'll find yourself inappropriately singing choruses about "eating pussy from the back" while waiting on line at the bank. Depending on how those Zara work pants fit on that bank teller, maybe that's not the worst thing. There's songs about dick slaps, eating pussy, white broads with big asses, orgies, and of course eating pussy. I list cunnilingus twice, because when half of the songs on an album are about eating pussy, it deserves to be listed twice; plus as a release from Danny Brown's Bruiser Brigade we're contractually obligated to mention cunnilingus three times. If Black Tail had a label, they'd be fighting us for the rights to this one. But you don't have to take my word for it. Stream or download Big Dick Niggas Eat Pussy Too below. Honestly though, if you've never had sex in a public bathroom, don't download this shit. It'll just make you feel real uncomfortable in your personal areas.

Semiconductors Market Research Reports
Semiconductor is a technology enabler and a vital constituent in today's electronic devices. Owing to its critical role as a multiple lever in various electronics and related value chain industries, the semiconductors market is broadly regarded as a key driver for economic growth globally.
Also, in comparison to any other domestic market, the semiconductor industry is unique and highly demanding. The main benefit of semiconductors being small and faster is its ability to be packed onto a small chip. As a result, every year, worldwide chip makers and designers are compelled to dramatically come up with something better and increase the performance of their electronic products, while accommodating more transistors on a chip and reducing prices and affordability bracket for consumers. Chip makers are emerging leaner and providing attractive outsourcing options.
The change vectors for the semiconductor companies are coming from various directions at a faster rate. Various industrial and automotive markets for semiconductors offer immense growth potential. Growing application areas, demand for high speed technology, as well as increased demand for semiconductors from military, aerospace, and defense sectors has enhanced the overall growth in this market.
You will find the most detailed research reports about semiconductors market on Marketresearchreports.biz. We are the only professional hub that is able to gather actual data on the overall semiconductor market and show the current status of leading semiconductor markets, its trends, and forecasts in our comprehensive reports.

Good tips for journalists using Twitter from Media Shift.
1) Think before you tweet — you can't delete an indiscreet tweet! (Well, you can, but it will survive in Twitter search for three months and it's likely live on as cached copy somewhere.)
2) Think carefully about what you're re-tweeting and acknowledge if it's unsubstantiated.
3) Be an active twit: tweet daily if you want your followers to stick.
4) Determine your Twitter identity.
5) Be human; be honest; be open; be active.
6) Don't lock your account if you want to use Twitter for reporting purposes — this fosters distrust.
7) Twitter is a community, not just a one-way conversation or broadcast channel — actively engage.
8) Check if your employer has a social media policy.
9) Be cautious when tweeting about your employer/workplace/colleagues.
10) Be a judicious follower — don't be stingy but avoid following everyone as your list grows to avoid tweet bombardment.
11) If you quote a tweet, attribute it.
12) Expect your competitors to steal your leads if you tweet about them.
13) Don't tweet while angry or drunk.
14) Avoid racist, sexist, bigoted and otherwise offensive tweets and never abuse a follower.
15) Scrutinize crowdsourced stories closely.
16) Find people to follow. Foster followers by pilfering the lists of other twits.
17) Twitter is a 'time vampire' (via @anne_brand) — you don't need to keep track of all tweets, so dip in and out through the day.
18) Prevent information overload by using an application such as Tweetdeck.
19) Add applications to your Internet-enabled mobile device to allow live-tweeting on the road.
20) Add value to your tweets with links, Twitpic and other applications for audio and video.
I blogged about Twitter many times but I did not tell You I opened a Twitter account only for my english audience.
Twitter is a funny way to publish your opinions and what are You doing now in a very simple way.

Cheats and Walkthroughs
Cheats and Walkthroughs(1)
The Witcher 2 is getting a much needed patch, starting tomorrow, to address key issued and add free DLC.

In the article appearing on page 810 of the July 2011 issue of Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, there is an error in the Materials and Methods section under the heading "Patients and Data Collection." The CTP codes in the following sentence were incorrect as published. The correct sentence reads:
The Colectomy Project, a special 24-hospital subset of the larger MSQC initiative, was started in 2007 to better understand best practices in various areas of colon surgery as identified by 4 Current Procedural Terminology codes (open segmental colectomy (44140), laparoscopic segmental colectomy (44204), ileocolic resection (44160), and laparoscopic ileocolic resection (44205)).
Diseases of the Colon & Rectum.
November 2011.
BACKGROUND: Mechanical bowel preparation before colectomy is controversial for several reasons, including a theoretically increased risk of Clostridium difficile infection.
OBJECTIVE: The primary aim of this study was to compare the incidence of C difficile infection among patients who underwent mechanical bowel preparation and those who did not. A secondary objective was to assess the association between C difficile infection and the use of oral antibiotics.
DESIGN: This was an observational cohort study.
SETTING: The Michigan Surgical Quality Collaborative Colectomy Project (n = 24 hospitals) participates in the American College of Surgeons-National Surgical Quality Improvement Program with additional targeted data specific to patients undergoing colectomies.
PATIENTS: Included were adult patients (21 years and older) admitted to participating hospitals for elective colectomy between August 2007 and June 2009.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: The main outcome measure was laboratory detection of a positive C difficile toxin assay or stool culture.
RESULTS: Two thousand two hundred sixty-three patients underwent colectomy and fulfilled inclusion criteria. Fifty-four patients developed a C difficile infection, for a hospital median rate of 2.8% (range, 0–14.7%). Use of mechanical bowel preparation was not associated with an increased incidence of C difficile infection (P = .95). Among 1685 patients that received mechanical bowel preparation, 684 (41%) received oral antibiotics. The proportion of patients in whom C difficile infection was diagnosed after the use of preoperative oral antibiotics was smaller than the proportion of patients with C difficile infection who did not receive oral antibiotics (1.6% vs 2.9%, P = .09).
LIMITATIONS: The potential exists for underestimation of C difficile infection because of the study's strict data collection criteria and risk of undetected infection after postoperative day 30.
CONCLUSIONS: In contrast to previous single-center data, this multicenter study showed that the preoperative use of mechanical bowel preparation was not associated with increased risk of C difficile infection after colectomy. Moreover, the addition of oral antibiotics with mechanical bowel preparation did not confer any additional risk of infection.

Your question is not clear because you have not said what the dimemsion of your space is. Also when you say "the matrix containing the vectors", containing them how? As columns is most common but you should say that.
If, for example, you have two vectors in your set and it is in three dimensions, your "augmented matrix" will be three by three, not 4 by 4. I think it would be better to think about what "span" means, which you say you know. A vector, x, is in the "span" of the set of vectors {u, v, w}, if and only if there exist numbers a, b, c such that x= au+ bv+ cw. Of course, it you write out the components, you will have a system of equations you could then put into an "augmented matrix" which is essentially what you are doing. Saying that you get a 4 by 4 matrix implies that you have a set of 3 vectors each having 4 components. Is that correct?

[edit] Biographical Information
Daniel Hudson was signed by the Chicago White Sox and scouts Chuck Fox and Nick Hostetler as a 5th round pick in the 2008 amateur draft.
Hudson was the key player given up by the Chicago White Sox to acquire Edwin Jackson from the Arizona Diamondbacks at the trading deadline in 2010. Hudson was immediately successful for his new team, earning the National League's Rookie Player of the Month honors for August. He went 4-1 with a 1.85 ERA over the month, while striking out 42 in 43 2/3 innings.
On June 26, 2012, Hudson left a start against the Atlanta Braves with pain in his elbow. He was diagnosed the next day with a torn ligament in his elbow, a condition that led to Tommy John surgery, which was performed on July 9th. He was struggling with a record of 3-2, 7.35 at the time. Still recovering from the surgery, he was placed on the D-Backs' 60-day disabled list at the start of spring training in 2013. He made a first rehabilitation start with the AA Mobile Bay Bears on June 4th and felt more pain; he was diagnosed with another tear and was operated on a second time. He finally made it back to the majors on September 3, 2014, pitching an inning in relief against the San Diego Padres, completing a very long circle that saw him be out of the majors for 799 days.
