Rated 4.7 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by KAKNDAK Touch sensor gloves I ordered the touch sensor gloves as a large and had to return them for a medium. My hand measures about 8" from the base of my palm to the top of my middle figure. The medium size glove fits my hand well but there is still about 1" extra length in the fingers but I would not go any smaller. The quality is very good and the Thinsulate keeps my hands warm. The touch sensor works well but since the fingers are a little long it can be a little clumsy. Overall I am happy with the gloves. they are comfortable and they have a quality look. February 18, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by dahliarose Great gloves I havenotgiftedthese yet but avesomelastyearand responsewas that they are great to use. The quality is excellent and as expected from Travelsmith. December 16, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by jonat Lightweight and warm, stiff leather If you are looking for "buttery-soft leather", keep looking - it's not here. The leather is quite stiff and inflexible, though it will probably loosen up with wear. I bought size L which was indicated as proper for 8-1/2 inches from base of palm to tip of finger. The length is pretty much spot on, but I would have appreciated a tiny bit more width. Even so, the gloves slip on and off easily and they are quite warm for the weight. Only the thumb and forefinger have "touch" pads. Your finger needs to be firmly seated in the finger tip in order for this to work, but it does work. November 5, 2014

Reviews of this property
The view was amazing and building really nice.
Jennifer answers any questions i had but the only problem was the room and under the bed not clean specially if she ask for cleaning money.
But i had a refund so it was all good
This apartment was really fantastic: great view, clean, modern appliances and a great building. The apartment had everything I needed and Jennifer was also very helpful. The gym and the convenience store in the building are a nice addition. The place is just 1-2 stops away from Hongdae, the heart of Seoul's art/alternative/nightlife scene. I highly recommend the place and hope to stay here again during my next visit to Seoul. Thanks!

Lou Reed: Rock 'n' roll poet of the streets
NEW YORK — The stare from across a desk was enough for me to question whether my first and only interview with Lou Reed had been a good idea.
He'd already curtly dismissed a publicist who had dreamed for years of meeting his musical hero. Now Reed seemed to be debating whether my admitted sin — I wasn't a native New Yorker — was worth overlooking to get some business done.
Yes, Reed, who died Sunday at age 71 of liver disease related to a recent transplant, wasn't an easy man. New York isn't an easy town. Few artists reflected a city better than he did, and he found it an endless source of inspiration. The 2003 retrospective package we talked about claimed that status as a title: "NYC Man."
As a member of the Velvet Underground and later as a solo artist, Reed chronicled the rough side of a city at a time when it wasn't so hidden from view. Transvestites, drug addicts and prostitutes found a place in his music. Behind a loping bass line, the cinematic lyrics of "Walk on the Wild Side" brought that world to others. For many musicians, their best-known songs aren't necessarily representative of their work. That wasn't the case with Reed.
Many of his most popular songs, like "Sweet Jane," "Rock and Roll" and "Heroin," dated from the period of the late 1960s into the 1970s with the Velvets and soon after they broke up.
The frequently challenging subject matter didn't lend itself to mass success and, "Walk on the Wild Side" excepted, Reed didn't achieve it. His singing voice didn't help, either; Reed had limited range and sang in a conversational style.
The Velvet Underground didn't sniff the top of the charts when alive, giving rise to a famous quote from producer and Roxy Music founder Brian Eno, who suggested that every one of the few people who bought their records, himself included, later started bands.
Many paid off their debts in tribute. U2 covered Reed's "Satellite of Love," the Cowboy Junkies did "Sweet Jane" and R.E.M. frequently performed "Pale Blue Eyes." His song "Perfect Day" had an extensive life, too.
Reed was an avant-garde artist who wore the black leather of a rocker and played a cutting guitar. He was dismissive in our interview when asked what he hoped people would say about his work when he was gone.
"I don't give a (expletive)," he said. "Who knows or cares?
"I don't expect anything at all from anything and I never have. I'm not trying to change anybody's mind about anything. I'm not trying to win anybody over. . . . I just love the music and sound and wanted to make it better, so if someone else wanted to hear it, they'd get some bang for the buck."
The people who cared about his music always knew there was a heart beating strong beneath that gruff exterior. The wild side was hard to miss, but the tenderness of a "Pale Blue Eyes" is hard to forget, the regretful young man singing that he "thought of you as everything I've had but couldn't keep."

For many, this next challenge presents the biggest hurdle yet: raw seafood. Each team will prepare a seafood tower for Anne and Bobby. http://foodnetwork.sndimg.com/content/dam/images/food/fullset/2012/3/13/0/WO0306_Red-Team-02_s4x3.jpg.rend.snigalleryslide.jpeg Conquering Lobster Chef Anne shows her team the most humane way to kill a lobster, but Dorothy can't handle it without screaming.

When the Blue Team sees that the Red Team left shrimp off their tower entirely, they think they have this in the bag. Unfortunately, Bobby says their seafood is soggy and their sauces lack flavor. http://foodnetwork.sndimg.com/content/dam/images/food/fullset/2012/3/13/0/WO0306_Bobby-Flay-and-Anne-Burrell-03_s4x3.jpg.rend.snigalleryslide.jpeg Party for the Red Team After a blind tasting, Anne and Bobby deem the Red Team the winner, despite the missing shrimp. "Luckily, your seafood tasted really good, so that is what saved you," says Anne. As a prize, they get a Champagne party back at the recruit house with Anne. http://foodnetwork.sndimg.com/content/dam/images/food/fullset/2012/3/13/0/WO0306_Bobby-Flay-and-Blue-Team_s4x3.jpg.rend.snigalleryslide.jpeg Go Fish The recruits know there's more seafood to come for the main dish challenge, but they're shocked at just how much more. The chefs present whole salmon, which their recruits will have to fillet. Tiffany doesn't even know where to start: "How am I going to pick up that sucker?" http://foodnetwork.sndimg.com/content/dam/images/food/fullset/2012/3/13/0/WO0306_Red-Team_s4x3.jpg.rend.snigalleryslide.jpeg Intimidation Chef Anne's team is equally freaked out by the enormous fish.

With the salmon scraps, the recruits must create a tartare appetizer in addition to their cooked main course. "I don't even eat lox on a bagel. I would never make anything with raw fish!" she says. She follows the recipe card successfully and is named the Red Team winner. http://foodnetwork.sndimg.com/content/dam/images/food/fullset/2012/3/13/0/WO0306_Bobby-Flay-and-Anne-Burrell_s4x3.jpg.rend.snigalleryslide.jpeg Can't Watch Chef Bobby simply has to look away as he sees some of his recruits attempt to fillet the salmon.

He also doesn't love her weird pairing of mozzarella cheese with salmon on a sandwich, so it's time for her to go home. "My biggest regret is not winning," Tiffany says.

Manistique wins $25,000 for health efforts
MANISTIQUE – The city of Manistique has won a $25,000 cash prize for its efforts on improving the health of its residents.
Manistique is one of six inaugural winners of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) Roadmaps to Health Prize, which honors outstanding community partnerships across the United States that help their residents live healthier lives. The city was selected from more than 160 applicants, with the other five winning communities including: Santa Cruz County, Calif., New Orleans, La., Cambridge, Mass., Fall River, Mass., and Minneapolis, Minn.
The city of Manistique was honored during an event Wednesday at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in Princeton, N.J. In addition, a local celebration is planned for May 15, in conjunction with the opening day of the Manistique Farmers' Market.
Communities were assessed on the following criteria:
identifying and empowering people to lead change
demonstrating the value of working together and multi-sector partnerships
recognizing the multiple factors that influence health
addressing problems that disproportionately affect vulnerable populations
planning and implementing policy and environmental changes that target populations rather than individuals
working in innovative ways to gather and maximize available resources
engaging in ongoing evaluation.
The city was recognized for its "innovative strategies to improve health" such as partnering with the Sault Tribe Strategic Alliance for Health (SAH) Project, developing the Manistique Farmers' Market, working to create easier access for non-motorized modes of transportation, and partnering with Manistique Area Schools to create access to healthy choices throughout the school day. The city has also been instrumental in implementing the Safe Routes to School Sidewalk program.
Manistique City Manager Sheila Aldrich expressed the city's appreciation to the SAH Coalition headed by Kerry Ott for their continued efforts, and the RWJF for recognizing the city's accomplishments.
"We so appreciate that the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation recognizes the importance of what we are accomplishing, and that they are honoring us with this award," said Aldrich. "We especially appreciate the support shown by our residents and invite tourists and retirees to visit us and become a part of Manistique's progressive future."
Ott also expressed her gratitude, noting the city's greatest asset is its people.
"What has brought us to this recognition is the desire of individuals and agencies and businesses in our community to not settle for what we have, but to work together toward a healthier community and a strong, vibrant economy," she said. "We have more work to do, and the Roadmaps to Health Prize will help us build upon the successes we have already had."
The RWJF Roadmaps to Health Prize is part of the County Health Rankings & Roadmaps program. The RWJF partnered with the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute in 2009 to create the County Health Rankings, an easy-to-use health snapshot of many factors that influence health and help community leaders identify the areas where they need to improve.
"These prize winners represent leadership at its finest – trailblazers creating a culture of health," said Dr. Risa Lavizzo-Mourey, RWJF president and CEO, in a press release statement. "Today we honor leaders from government, business, public health, health care, and education who stand shoulder-to-shoulder working toward better health. The RWJF Roadmaps to Health Prize shines a light on their accomplishments; we hope it will inspire others to take bold steps to improve health in their communities."
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation is the nation's largest philanthropy devoted exclusively to health and health care; the foundation works with a diverse group of organizations and individuals to identify solutions and achieve comprehensive, measurable, and timely change.

Dissociative disorders usually develop as a way to cope with trauma. The disorders most often form in children subjected to long-term physical, sexual or emotional abuse or, less often, a home environment that's frightening or highly unpredictable. The stress of war or natural disasters also can bring on dissociative disorders.
Personal identity is still forming during childhood. So a child is more able than an adult is to step outside of himself or herself and observe trauma as though it's happening to a different person. A child who learns to dissociate in order to endure an extended period of youth may use this coping mechanism in response to stressful situations throughout life.

The ADA defines a disability as a condition that substantially limits a major life activity (such as walking, seeing, hearing, speaking, breathing, and learning).
Below are examples of some disabilities that might impact a student.
Students with temporary disabilities such as a broken arm may also be eligible for services. Contact the Disability Resource Office if you are unsure you meet the definition of disability.
Back to top
Request for services is separate from the application process. To be eligible to receive services, make an appointment with the Disability Resource Office as soon as possible. You will be asked to provide documentation of your disability but it is not necessary to have it at the initial meeting.
You can make an appointment by calling the Disability Resource Manager, Rachel Sandberg, at 270-824-1708270-824-1708, 270-824-8641270-824-8641or by e-mail at email@example.com. The office is located at 139 John H Gray building.
Services (accommodations) are determined on an individual basis. These are some of the accommodations that have been provided but there may be others not on the list.
Documentation varies depending on the disability. Below are some general documentation guidelines. Individualizes Education Plans (IEP's), 504 Plans, or Transitions Plans often are not sufficient to document a disability. However, they may be useful for providing a history of effective accommodations. Please do not let lack of documentation prevent you from seeking services.
Documentation should:
You do not have to provide new documentation every semester but you must confirm accommodations with the Disability Resource Office every semester.

CUBRID SHARD talk at 2013 Percona MySQL Conference. Don't miss!
posted 4 years ago in CUBRID Life category by Esen Sagynov
I would like to announce that on April 24, 2013, six weeks from now, we will talk at Percona MySQL Conference & Expo in Santa Clara, CA. The topic of the presentation is Easy MySQL Database Sharding with CUBRID SHARD. The presentation will be @ 3:30 PM in Ballroom A. Come and join us!
If you ask companies who operate mission-critical services, they will tell:
- that a relational database system is still the best choice for mission-critical data;
- that service availability is more important than performance;
- that high performance is good, but predictable performance is the king.
This is a fact, and we know it. At NHN we have over 30,000 Web servers that operate over 150 large scale Web and mobile services. At such scale we must know what scales, how to provide high-availability and operate at predictable speed.
At Percona Live MySQL Conference 2013 I will talk about CUBRID SHARD, a universal database sharding solution for CUBRID, MySQL, and Oracle. CUBRID SHARD can be used with a heterogeneous database backend, i.e. some shards can be stored in CUBRID, some in MySQL or even Oracle. At NHN we deploy various combinations: MySQL only, MySQL + Oracle, MySQL + CUBRID, CUBRID only, and Oracle only. I will explain how DBAs can easily configure it, and how we have implemented this feature.
CUBRID SHARD allows to store unlimited number of database shards and distribute data based on modulo, DATETIME, or hash/range calculations. The developers can even feed in their own library to calculate the SHARD_ID using some complicated custom algorithm. At the session I will show how easy it is to setup all this. No need for a third-party management tool. With CUBRID SHARD application developers do not need to modify the application logic to provide data sharding. This is DBAs job as all this is handled by the database system automatically.
CUBRID SHARD is designed to be very efficient. It provides built-in (*) distributed load balancing and (*) connection and statement pooling. At the conference I will present several cases where CUBRID SHARD is deployed as a shard manager and a connection manager, or where it's used as a way for seamless data migration between different systems.
Who should come to the session?
If you run a service which spends money on a database solution, on tools you need to shard databases or manage connections, you should come and learn how CUBRID SHARD can provide your applications native scale-out through single database view.
If you would like to learn more about CUBRID Database Sharding, see our Database Sharding the Right Way: Easy, Reliable, and Open source I have presented at 2012 HighLoad++ Conference. More about CUBRID you can find at Important Facts to Know about CUBRID.

This document discusses how to set up an nGrinder project in Eclipse.
First, we recommend developers adopt to Spring Tool Suite (STS) as their main development platform.
Because STS is conveniently integrated with Git and Maven, enabling developers to focus on development rather than getting entangled with
configuration-related issues.
Currently, we use STS version 2.9.2.
change perspective to "Git Repository Exploring"
and then we will clone a Git repository.
Just input this in the URI field:
and click "Next."
Please specify nGrinder Project path on your local drive and click "Finish" and wait for a while.
nGrinder Project is already in our local drive!
2. Importing nGrinder Project
The instructions above describe how to clone an nGrinder project from Github to our local drive.
As follows, we will import the project into our eclipse workspace.
First, return from "Git Repository Exploring" perspective to "Java" perspective,
and import the nGrinder project from the local Git Repository
please select "Local" and click "Next"
select "Import as general project" and click "Finish"
3. Use Maven to build an nGrinder Project
Now that the nGrinder Project can be seen in "Java perspective".
we should import modules separately as Maven Projects.
because an nGrinder Project consist of three modules ngrinder-controller,ngrinder-core,and grinder-dns.
Select Root Directory and click "Next", nGrinder sub Projects will be imported automatically.
It's time to build an nGrinder project.
First, open "Run Configurations" and config new "Maven Build."
Compiling of the project is successful !
Let's deploy the nGrinder package .
An additional tomcat server should be used ,because it's faster than the STS self-install Server.
Our tomcat server is finished !
Ok, let`s check it from the browser.

After a sexual assault, victims often sense a loss of control. This is normal. Know that there are people on and off campus who will offer support and can help you make the decisions that are right for you to take care of yourself. You may want to report the assault immediately to authorities. You might also want to get medical attention or simply talk to someone.
On campus (or in the Marquette neighborhood), call Marquette Police Department (MUPD) at 414-288-1911
Off campus, call 911
Sexual assault can result in injury or illness that you may not immediately see or feel. It is important that you seek appropriate medical care promptly.
The Sexual Assault Treatment Center (SATC) at Aurora Sinai Medical Center, located two blocks from campus, is accessible through the Emergency Room entrance. Staff there can address all issues including crisis counseling, injuries, STI (Sexually Transmitted Infection) testing and treatment, pregnancy and the gathering of physical evidence, as well as referrals for further care. All contact with SATC staff is confidential. SATC can be accessed in person or by phone (414-219-5555) 24 hours a day.
Resist the urge to change clothes, bathe, douche, eat, drink or brush your teeth. Do not go to the bathroom if possible. This is so that physical evidence can be collected and preserved. You do not need to decide at this time whether you want to pursue legal action but if you save the evidence, it offers you more options in the future when you are better able to decide. The staff at SATC are trained to collect and save this type of evidence for you, should you decide to use it in pursuing legal action in the future.
Marquette University Medical Clinic on campus can also provide evaluation and treatment for injuries and STIs, as well as pregnancy testing. Marquette University Medical Clinic is open Monday-Wednesday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.; Thursday, 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.; and Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
A victim advocate can be reached at 414-288-5244. The advocate can provide information about campus and community resources and support you through each step of the process. Services are free and confidential to the extent allowed by law.

Skip to comments.Romney and Santorum aim for early May meeting
Posted on 04/24/2012 5:07:57 PM PDT by VinL
Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney are likely to meet in early May to discuss a Santorum endorsement, his role as a Romney surrogate and conservative policy issues, CNN has learned.
John Brabender, a senior strategist for the Santorum campaign, told CNN that Santorum's goal is to have a policy-oriented session in which he tries to find a "comfort level" about the role "social conservatives, tea party activists and blue collar Republicans will play in the campaign and in the Romney administration." Even so, he said, "we are not walking in there with a litmus test. This is meant to be a candid conversation."
The session will not be "a meeting to endorse (but) a meeting to talk about the endorsement and other maters," Brabender said. Senior aides tell CNN that eventually Santorum will endorse Mitt Romney, and
(Excerpt) Read more at politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com ...
Rick ready to take one for the team.
Rick was taking 'one for the team' a long time ago. Too bad he couldn't take one for America.
Unlike Newt Rick has leverage.
You do realize that Gingrich will endorse Mittens at some point. The real question is whether you'll have the courage to come running breathlessly to tell us about it.
The only thing Santorum is trying to leverage is Myth paying off his debt.
Unlike Rick, Newt has principles and courage...
so Rick is going to sell out the Americans who voted for him...
The sniping continues.
The sniping of conservatives by conservatives against conservatives continues on here on FR, unfazed by the looming ugliness of a Romney nomination.
It's the same sniping that practically guaranteed that the 6.5 million non-Romney voters in the Republican Primaries (as of April 10) were easily out-voted by the 5.5 million Romney voters.
It's both bogus and sad.
Santorum should release his votes to Newt.
Is that possible?
Rick ready to take one for the team.
Something tells me Rick will come out of his meeting with Romney with his bills paid, his future in the party assured, all oiled up and ready to take one for the team once again...
It is pathetic that some view that as some sort of betrayal.
Rick will probably tell Mitt the harsh truth about how the base is not embracing him. But it sounds like Rick is folding tent.
I'm cynical. So maybe Rick just wants to speed up the end of the GOP. Since he could not beat Romney no matter what he did. It is a thought.
I feel the same with Bachmann and Cain. They are left in a pile of crap and will do just enough to appease the establishment. Knowing full well the GOP is heading in the direction of a showdown in Tampa. I hope.
That's a bodily function sound, and you shouldn't respond to posts with bodily functions sounds... :)
It is pathetic that some view that as some sort of betrayal.
People around here accuse me of being naive constantly. If you really think that Santorum will have any success in changing romney's positions OR that Romney will honor any promise he makes to Santorum - or any conservative - IF he's elected, You are MORE naive than I am.
It's gotta make Rick's skin crawl as much as it does mine.
Either the Republican party will change to a more conservative direction or, IMHO, it's days are numbered.
Politics is a real ugly business.
As I've posted elsewhere, IMHO, whether Mittens wins or loses (however that turns out), he AND the Republican party are going to look very, very bad the next few years in the eyes of anyone who's tired of the mess we call the Feral government.
Mittens will either be the biggest political loser ever or the man driving when the wheels come off the world economy.
But on a more positive note, it gives me great confidence that the Republican party will be replaced by a real conservative party.
The real question is whether youll have the courage to come running breathlessly to tell us about it.
Don't understand- why is that a question?
You're lucky you weren't here for my direct response.
Every once in awhile, when it serves their purposes, they show up on the battlefield for PR effect. But meanwhile, they're selling you out behind the scenes for money, titles, and power.
The sooner folks quit listening to them the sooner we can raise up a principled, practical alternative.
Yes, I am grasping at straws.
wow, I was just trying to lighten things up because you seem like a reasonable person...
Let me guess, another Santorum supporter with no sense of humor...
Hmm, apparently your sense of humor is lacking somewhat, as well.
Negotiating... and trying to get his invoices in order so he'll know how much to charge Romney for his "endorsement"...

A Stock Market Freak and Tech Geek's Christmas Wish List
Thirty-six hour days, brother (or soul sister). Packing it all in. No time to rest because this isn't even a job. I write about companies and stocks, primarily in my three favorite spaces: tech, media and retail. Everyday feels like a day off when you do this!
But it's not all coming up roses. I have some issues to run by Santa Claus.
Give Us Less From Wall Street Analysts
A majority of the financial media relies way too much on Wall Street analysts. Every other guest on CNBC is an analyst. Most multimedia sites, including TheStreet, call on these guys for reaction daily.
I have a newsflash for you: Lots of investors are sick of analysts. They don't trust them. They don't value what they have to say because, generally, they don't say anything of value.
That's not to say we should banish all appearances and opinions from big or boutique firms. Not at all.
First, plenty of good Wall Street analysts exist. Guys like Brian Sozzi (who contributes to TheStreet's sister site Real Money ) Tony Wible at Janney Montgomery and Richard Tullo of Albert Fried and Co. immediately come to mind.
But "good" is subjective. You might love guys whom I dislike and vice versa. This faction deserves inclusion in the conversation; we just need to knock back their profiles.
For starters, read "Apple Analysts Should Be Ashamed of Themselves This Morning" and then "Absolutely Devastating News for Amazon?"
Several firms -- two in particular -- completely blew it on Apple (AAPL) . It wasn't just that they were wrong. It's no sin to be wrong; it's merely human. It's the way they went about being wrong. I explain in the above-linked articles.
The second article ( "Absolutely Devastating News for Amazon?" ) points out that things just got worse when a financial reporter turned to these very firms, seconds after these cats performed pathetically, to get insight on -- of all stocks -- AAPL! I can't make this stuff up.
Pull up a bar stool. I can talk your ear off with stories like this.
Around this time last year over at Seeking Alpha , I chronicled stories of analysts from major firms missing big on Netflix (NFLX) only to fall off the face of the Earth thereafter:
... has anybody heard from Ingrid Chung at Goldman Sachs? ... After Netflix's disastrous Q2 and weak Q3 guidance in July, Chung waxed bullishly, not only reiterating a buy rating and her $330 price target, but raising EPS estimates from 2011 through 2013.

Blast from the past
FORT STEVENSON STATE PARK – A lot of laughter and quite a bit of smoke floated through Frontier Military Days at Fort Stevenson State Park south of Garrison Sunday.
Held Saturday and Sunday from 1 to 4 p.m., Frontier Military Days gave visitors a glimpse of life on the plains and a chance to experience what it was like to live in a military fort in the 1870s.
The event was held on the guardhouse lawn, near the shore of Lake Sakakawea. Members of the Frontier Army of Dakota set up authentic tents and gear in front of the guardhouse interpretive center, with daily activities including baking, music and demonstrations of skills used back then.
Some of the demonstrations included candle making, biscuit cooking, rifle firing and ax throwing. There was also live music played on instruments common during that time, including a banjo and washboard. There were also games for visitors to play, including a boat race using a system of strings to move the boats, the popular game of croquet, and a tug-of-war match that had competitors stand on rounded platforms that rolled back and forth, adding considerably to the challenge.
Stacy Majeres of Garrison brought her son, August, 7, and daughter, Sadie, 5, to the park and was having a blast racing August with the boats. Even though her son seemed to get an early start with every race and was winning handily, Majeres was enjoying herself tremendously.
This was Majeres' first time at Frontier Military Days and she was glad she came. She arrived around 12:30 p.m. and planned to stay the whole day until the live-fire demonstration of the cannon just before 4 p.m.
"We came to see the cannon and the guardhouse," Majeres said.
After visiting the exhibits in the guardhouse, Majeres said they took in about all there was to see at the event, which was quite a bit. They got their arms limbered up at the ax-throwing station, got a whiff of real frontier smoke at the rifle-shooting station, and watched a candle-making demonstration, which Majeres and her daughter found interesting.
"That was kind of neat. My daughter Sadie liked that," Majeres said. "She (the demonstrator) showed how the wick and the molds are made and cut."
They also spent some time looking at the military vehicles on display. August particularly liked that one, as he got to climb into a jeep sporting a mounted machine gun and various military helmets.
"Those were a hit," Majeres said with a laugh.
She will definitely be coming back in the future, as the event gives Majeres and her children a glimpse into the state's past.
"It's really interesting. We're very fortunate to have something like this so near to us," Majeres said. "North Dakota's best-kept secrets in our backyard."
Gary Miller of Mandan and his daughter, Suzannah Miller, also of Mandan, were providing the live music. Gary Miller played a 5-string banjo, harmonica and a small instrument called a jaw harp while his daughter played a washboard and accordion.
"My family, we just kind of travel around and we like to do historical music, Civil War era and things like that," Gary Miller said. "Act the parts a little bit."
Miller was in a Civil War-ear Union uniform while Suzannah wore a full-length dress and bonnet.
Miller said banjos were a popular instrument in the 1860s and 1870s, although more often than not they were hand-made, unlike his professionally-made version.
Although he had a harmonica, Miller said that wasn't typically an instrument many people from that era would have.
"Hollywood makes it sound like these were real popular, but they weren't because they were expensive," Miller said.
Instead of a harmonica, Miller said many people had a jaw harp, which is a small, metal instrument held against the lips and plucked to produce a distinctive metallic twang.
"This is something a soldier would be a lot more likely to take along with him," Miller said. "Lewis and Clark even gave some of these as gifts to the Indians."
This is the Millers' second time at Fort Stevenson. They have performed at many of the other forts scattered around North Dakota, as well.
They originally attended frontier day events at Fort Abraham Lincoln near Mandan and Miller said he always thought they could use more music. Some friends at Fort Lincoln agreed and allowed the Millers to start playing there, and they've been doing it ever since.
Suzannah said they have been playing for 10 to 12 years. While the accordion and washboard are her main instruments at frontier day events, she said the organ is actually the instrument she knows best. However, they're a tad too heavy to carry around, so she sticks with the smaller instruments.
She said reading about life in the past from a history book has its place, but to really learn what people went through back then you sometimes have to put yourself in their shoes.
"I think it's really nice to be able to look back and get a picture of what day-to-day life is like in history," Suzannah said.
Performing at frontier day events has allowed Suzannah to appreciate how much work it took to do day-to-day things like washing clothes and cooking a meal. Those lessons are something she in turn enjoys passing on to visitors who walk by and take some time to listen to her music.
"So I've really went back and looked at other things in history now that I've done this," she said. "And it's really nice to come out and just kind of enjoy being outside and interacting with people and sharing with kids how things used to be."
Donn Vetter of Garrison was trying his hand at the ax-throwing station and decided to quit while he was ahead after sinking a particularly good throw into the wood target. Vetter has lived in Garrison for around 50 years and said his grandfather actually owned the land Fort Stevenson was on. When Lake Sakakawea was created the Army Corps of Engineers purchased the land.
"So he lost his farmland," Vetter said.
Vetter still has childhood memories of what the area was like before it was flooded to form the lake. Back then it was known as the flats, and Vetter said there is a picture in the guardhouse shop of many of the people who lived there during a picnic. Several of his relatives are in that picture. He can't remember when the photo was taken, but guessed it was sometime in the 1940s.
"They lived on that farm until the water came up," Vetter said. "A lot of the buildings were moved into Garrison. The house and things like that."
Vetter said he has only attended frontier days a couple of times, but when he does come he enjoys it.
Like many people, Vetter was waiting for the end of the event when a live cannon demonstration was held. The cannon was a replica of a 3-inch rifled field piece, which Fort Stevenson had two of in the 1860s.
The cannon's gunners were Robert Young of Steele, who is a member of the Fort McKean Detachment Old Scouts Society, and Keith Norman of Jamestown, a volunteer with the 20th Infantry in Jamestown.
Young and Norman fired the cannon once to get the crowd's attention, then Norman talked about the field piece, including the safety measures they take to ensure an arm doesn't get blown off during loading, as happened to one unfortunate soldier at Fort Stevenson on July 4, 1868 during a flag salute firing.
While the cannon normally had a six-man crew, Young and Norman handled all the duties themselves, firing several shots that arced over Lake Sakakawea before ending in a thunderous explosion.
The demonstration was what everyone at the event was waiting for, and it didn't disappoint.
Whether it's the raw power of the cannon or the simple twang of Miller's banjo, Vetter enjoyed everything at Frontier Military Days, and will no doubt come sometime again.
"It's just real interesting," Vetter said. "I thought I'd come out just to get out of the house for a while, and I'm glad I came."

Well, it's Tuesday again, and you know what that means... IBM Announcements!
IBM thought the week that everyone is watching IBM Watson compete against humans on Jeopardy! would be a good week to launch new storage products.
- IBM XIV Storage System
Ever since my post [Double Drive Failure Debunked: XIV Two Years Later], the XIV storage systems have been flying off the shelves. IBM rolls out the new [XIV 10.2.4 microcode level] with some exciting new software features. Here are the highlights:
Full VMware Vstorage API for Array Integration (VAAI). Back in 2008, VMware announced new vStorage APIs for its vSphere ESX hypervisor: vStorage API for Site Recovery Manager, vStorage API for Data Potection, vStorage API for Multipathing. Last July, VMware added a new API called vStorage API for Array Integration [VAAI] which offers three primitives:
- Hardware-assisted Blocks zeroing. Sometimes referred to as "Write Same", this SCSI command will zero out a large section of blocks, presumably as part of a VMDK file. This can then be used to reclaim space on the XIV on thin-provisioned LUNs.
- Hardware-assisted Copy. Make an XIV snapshot of data without any I/O on the server hardware.
- Hardware-assisted locking. On mainframes, this is call Parallel Access Volumes (PAV). Instead of locking an entire LUN using standard SCSI reserve commands, this primitive allows an ESX host to lock just an individual block so as not to interfere with other hosts accessing other blocks on that same LUN.
Plans for a [fourth primitive called "Thin Provisioning Stun"] were mysteriously dropped. For now, VAAI support refers only to the three primitives above.
(Stephen, if you are reading this, please update your [VAAI in Plain English Support Matrix].)
Quality of Service (QoS) Performance Classes. When XIV was first released, it treated all hosts and all data the same, even when deployed for a variety of different applications. This worked for some clients, such as [Medicare y Mucho Más]. They migrated their databases, file servers and email system from EMC CLARiiON to an IBM XIV Storage System. In conjunction with VMware, the XIV provides a highly flexible and scalable virtualized architecture, which enhances the company's business agility.
However, other clients were skeptical, and felt they needed additional "nobs" to prioritize different workloads. The new 10.2.4 microcode allows you to define four different "performance classes". This is like the door of a nightclub. All the regular people are waiting in a long line, but when a celebrity in a limo arrives, the bouncer unclips the cord, and lets the celebrity in. For each class, you provide IOPS and/or MB/sec targets, and the XIV manages to those goals. Performance classes are assigned to each host based on their value to the business.
Offline Initialization for Asynchronous Mirror. Internally, we called this Truck Mode. Normally, when a customer decides to start using Asynchronous Mirror, they already have a lot of data at the primary location, and so there is a lot of data to send over to the new XIV box at the secondary location. This new feature allows the data to be dumped to tape at the primary location. Those tapes are shipped to the secondary location and restored on the empty XIV. The two XIV boxes are then connected for Asynchronous Mirroring, and checksums of each 64KB block are compared to determine what has changed at the primary during this "tape delivery time". This greatly reduces the time it takes for the two boxes to get past the initial synchronization phase.
- IBM Storwize V7000 Rapid Application Storage
Last month, IBM announced the [IBM Storwize V7000 Rapid Application Storage] bundle. There is now a [Business Advantage Calculator] to help cost-justify this bundle.
IP-based Replication. When IBM first launched the Storwize V7000 last October, people commented that the one feature they felt missing was IP-based replication. Sure, we offered FCP-based replication as most other Enterprise-class disk systems offer today, but many midrange systems also offer IP-based repliation to reduce the need for expensive FCIP routers. [IBM Tivoli Storage FastBack for Storwize V7000] provides IP-based replication for Storwize V7000 systems.
- Network Attached Storage
IBM announced two new models of the IBM System Storage N series. The midrange N6240 supports up to 600 drives, replacing the N6040 system. The entry-level N6210 supports up to 240 drives, and replaces the N3600 system. Details for both are available on the latest [data sheet].
IBM Real-Time Compression appliances work with all N series models to provide additional storage efficiency. Last October, I provided the [Product Name Decoder Ring] for the STN6500 and STN6800 models. The STN6500 supports 1 GbE ports, and the STN6800 supports 10GbE ports (or a mix of 10GbE and 1GbE, if you prefer). The IBM versions of these models were announced last December, but some people were on vacation and might have missed it. For more details of this, read the [Resources page], the [landing page], or [watch this video].
- IBM System Storage DS3000 series
IBM System Storage [DS3524 Express DC and EXP3524 Express DC] models are powered with direct current (DC) rather than alternating current (AC). The DS3524 packs dual controllers and two dozen small-form factor (2.5 inch) drives in a compact 2U-high rack-optimized module. The EXP3524 provides addition disk capacity that can be attached to the DS3524 for expansion.
Large data centers, especially those in the Telecommunications Industry, receive AC from their power company, then store it in a large battery called an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). For DC-powered equipment, they can run directly off this battery source, but for AC-powered equipment, the DC has to be converted back to AC, and some energy is lost in the conversion. Thus, having DC-powered equipment is more energy efficient, or "green", for the IT data center.
Whether you get the DC-powered or AC-powered models, both are NEBS-compliant and ETSI-compliant.
- New Tape Drive Options for Autoloaders and Libraries
IBM System Storage [TS2900 Autoloader] is a compact 1U-high tape system that supports one LTO drive and up to 9 tape cartridges. The TS2900 can support either an LTO-3, LTO-4 or LTO-5 half-height drive.
IBM System Storage [TS3100 and TS3200 Tape Libraries] were also enhanced. The TS3100 can accomodate one full-height LTO drive, or two half-height drives, and hold up to 24 cartridges. The TS3200 offers twice as many drives and space for cartridges.
For more on this, see the [1Q2011 Storage Announcements page].

Intelligent processing of complex signals such as images, sound or language is often performed by a parameterized hierarchy of nonlinear processing layers, sometimes biologically inspired. Hierarchical (or nested) systems offer a way to generate complex mappings using simple stages. Each layer performs a different operation and achieves an ever more sophisticated representation of the input, as, for example, in an deep artificial neural network, an object recognition cascade in computer vision or a speech front-end processing. Joint estimation of the parameters of all the layers and selection of an optimal architecture is widely considered to be a difficult numerical nonconvex optimization problem, difficult to parallelize for execution in a distributed computation environment, and requiring significant human expert effort, which leads to suboptimal systems in practice. We describe a general mathematical strategy to learn the parameters and, to some extent, the architecture of nested systems, called the method of auxiliary coordinates (MAC). This replaces the original problem involving a deeply nested function with a constrained problem involving a different function in an augmented space without nesting. The constrained problem may be solved with penalty-based methods using alternating optimization over the parameters of each layer, and over the auxiliary coordinates. MAC has provable convergence, is easy to implement reusing existing algorithms for single layers, can be parallelized trivially and massively, applies even when parameter derivatives are not available or not desirable (so computing gradients with the chain rule does not apply), and is competitive with state-of-the-art nonlinear optimizers even in the serial computation setting, often providing reasonable models within a few iterations.
If time permits, I will illustrate how to use MAC to derive training algorithms for a range of problems, such as deep nets, best-subset feature selection, joint dictionary and classifier learning, supervised dimensionality reduction, and others

Pooch parade
Dogs of all types and sizes came to take part in the ninth annual Pat McGee Memorial Dog Walk Sunday at Point Gratiot in Dunkirk.
Owners walked their beloved pets around the park to support the Lakeshore Humane Society. Dogs interacted with each other while others tried marking territories.
"It's taken several forms because eight years we used to do it at Russell Joy Park in Fredonia," said Rock Vallone, vice president of the shelter and dog owner. "And then we started raising money to build the building (animal shelter). We wanted to make it a bigger event and have it down here at the Point. Then we decided that we wanted to honor Pat McGee for the work that she has done with animals. So it was good timing."
The event was named in honor of the late New York Senator McGee for her efforts to end animal cruelty. In her fight against animal cruelty, McGee supported the Felony Animal Cruelty Law.
For Vallone and many, the walk was a hot one. Starting out from the pavilion, the group walked along the walkway by the lake down past the lighthouse.
The group then made a turn on Oak Street where they made their way back to the pavilion. Some dogs walked with their tails wagging and tongues sticking out. Others found areas of shade and plopped on the ground to stay away from the beating sun. A few small dogs decided to jump into the arms of their owners, for they knew how to stay away from the heat and exhaustion.
Along the path were several watering stations where owners and their pets could take some time to cool off and get a drink of water.
Once the dogs and their owners finished the walk, they were met with pools to hop in or lie down in and water to cool off. Others went to the shade and found a comfortable spot on the ground. A dog grooming station was also present to clip nails and brush hair.
Volunteer of the humane society Nancy Letersky said that 40 people registered for this year's walk.
Between 50 and 60 dogs were geared for the walk. People from the first walk-a-thon were in attendance along with first timers. People as far as Warren, Pa., came to support the cause.
"People love their pets," Letersky said. "These people are our followers."
Letersky thanked everyone for attending the event. She mentioned to the participants how happy she was for no rain as well as everyone's patience.
After the walk, contests were held to show off dog characteristics and talents. The categories included most patriotic, fastest tailwagger, most beautiful eyes, best smile and tallest dog winner being a black Great Dane. Winners received play toys and treats.
The money made from the event goes to support the humane shelter and the animals. Some of the money goes to pay for medication and vet visits that animals need, according to Letersky. She mentioned how vital it is for the animals to have medical treatment in order to keep them healthy. The money that is donated is put to the best use to keep the animals healthy until they are adopted. She acknowledged Purina and the community for their support.
In support of the humane society, raffle tickets were available for purchase. The winner of the Tuscany Meat and Deli prize was Elizabeth Arcorace.
Sponsors of the ninth walk-a-thon were thanked, including Agency LLC, Fredonia Beaver Club, McGraw-Kowal Funeral Home, Dunkirk Animal Clin-ic, and several others.

Your Inner Baja may be the perfect wave or some gloriously insane obsession, but it's yours and every TACO DEL MAR® restaurant is here to feed it.
The very first TACO DEL MAR® restaurant opened its doors on June 8, 1992 on Pier 57 in Seattle's
historic waterfront district.
The founders created a name and logo that reflected the signature menu items—the fish tacos and
Mission style burritos they had fallen in love with during their college surfer days in California.
"Mission Style" refers to the Mission neighborhood in San Francisco - historically the center of Latino
American life in the Bay area - where the TACO DEL MAR® style of burrito has been popular for decades.
In the early eighties, the Mission style burrito began to appear in small shops in other surrounding
neighborhoods of San Francisco, and the popularity exploded from there. Now, as far as fish tacos are
It all started improbably in San Diego sometime in the late sixties when a surfer group went in search of
the perfect wave. They headed south of the border. After riding the waves all morning, the gang made
the trek back up the cliffs and discovered the local taco: fried fish, shredded cabbage, a lime squeeze,
salsa and the mystery white sauce. Indeed, fish tacos turned out to be a popular staple food served
throughout the border towns of the Mexican-California border. So…
It was decided that the marriage of the Mission style burrito and Seattle's renowned seafood would be a
natural – as would the traditional Northern Baja version of the fish taco. A great decision!

Let's be honest: ridiculing any musical genre that calls Vanilla Ice one of its own is akin to shooting fish in a barrel.
On the other hand, have you ever tried shooting fish in a barrel? Fun for hours!
Recently, MusicRadar kicked off a series called The Worst Album Covers Ever, with our inaugural feature harpooning the lamest and most ludicrous cover art that heavy metal ever spewed forth.
And because we're equal opportunity hecklers, we now turn our cringing, disbelieving (OK, bursting-out-laughing) faces to the world of hip-hop, which has no shortage of album cover wretchedness.
At its best, hip-hop is a vital, challenging, creative musical force in which social commentary is delivered as poetry over beats and instrumentation that rock the body and the senses.
These albums don't do that. Well, they might but you wouldn't know it from their covers.
Enough talk (except for a quick 'WARNING! Some of these are verging on the NSFW but only if you work in a place of worship with a public-facing computer or something').
Hip-hop? We love you man, but sometimes a man's gotta shoot a fish, you know?
