MegaBus has fares to Pittsburgh for $1.00 and the Pittsburgh stop is only a 15 minute walk from the arena.
There are no late return trips so you would have to get a room, or spend the night in The Rivers Casino (since our guv is fucking with ours). But you can make the Sunday matinee and be back in town in the evening.
Or you can check out PNC Field. Or go raise hell at the Browns Steelers game and have a designated driver back to town.
You can also get the $1.00 fare from downtown Akron.
Chicago is a $35.00 fare from Cleveland.

About Narkanda
Yet another hill station nestled in the state of Himachal Pradesh is Narkanda. This place is surrounded by lofty ranges and thick forests. A thick layer of mist envelopes the place giving it a rather surreal look. This place is ideal for a summer vacation; to get away from the hat or even for one to spend the winter. Located in Shimla, Narkanda is known because of its apple orchards and its treks all the way to Hatu Peak. There are many such trails that one can choose from as well.

Best time to visit - January,February,March,October,November,December
If you can explore one place in India, let it be its capital, New Delhi. This modern city offers everything that a city traveller could possibly want – chaos, quiet, spirituality, history, culture and food. Delhi is said to be one of the oldest existing cities in the world. This ancient city never stops growing. The Mughal and British, the two main empires who invaded the city, have left a deep mark on its face and infrastructure. Their monuments and mausoleums lie scattered across the city, such as India Gate, Jama Masjid, Humayun's Tomb, Qutub Minar, Purana Qila and the Lodhi Gardens. The iconic Red Fort or Lal Qila, built of sandstone, has been standing tall since 1648 and was the brainchild of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. You can participate in the celebration of modern Indian art at Akshardham, a wondrous house of worship. The colossal, Lotus Temple is a centre of Baha'i faith and is a peaceful refuge from the breathlessness of the city. The city has a rich and colourful character, which is visible in its chaotic bazaars such as Janpath, Sarojini Nagar, Dilli Haat and Chandni Chowk – all heavens for shopaholics. You may splurge at the high-end restaurants and pubs all across Delhi, but do not miss out on the street food. Connaught Place, Chanakyapuri and the Parliament Street stretch, everything contributes to the grandeur New Delhi is. If you're touring Delhi, Paharganj is a good choice for inexpensive lodging with good connectivity.

According to traditional etymology, Dharamshala translates to 'spiritual dwelling'. The calm expanse of the Dhauladhar Ranges enveloping this city grants it a rich history of spirituality and attracts thousands of travellers from around the globe, looking for that very bliss. Homestead of the Dalai Lama and innumerable other Tibetans, Dharamshala boasts of beautiful monasteries all around, such as those within the Tsuglagkhang Complex, which also houses the Tibetan Leader's official residence. Other attractions include the Kalachakra Temple, which houses some hypnotisingly beautiful murals, the Tibet Museum and the Namgyal Gompa, where monks can be seen engaged in animated debates in the afternoon. Apart from the spirituality, this charming little city also hosts International Film festivals, local fairs, Shoton Spring Festival and the vibrant Tibetan Opera- 'Lhamo. The city is usually dormant with regard to adventurous activities, but for those thrill seekers and nature lovers around, an adrenaline rush always awaits them. Some resorts provide opportunities for paragliding, flying fox, rock climbing, zip lining, rappelling and even night camping. Treks through the magical hills and forests are always invaluable, the most cherished one being, the trek to the snowy peaks of Triund. Dharamshala's vast Tibetan population gives way to charming little kitchen cafes serving the most lip smacking Tibetan dishes, that too at very affordable prices (below Rs 500 for two). Dishes such as thenthuk, thukpa, chocolate and meat medallions are a huge hit with most travellers that have visited and sought refuge in this city's mystical spread.
McLeod Ganj

Best time to visit - February,March,April,May,June,October,November
Barely 4 km away from Dharamshala by foot, the hill station of McLeod Ganj is home to many majestic monasteries, delicious smelling kitchen cafes, video rental shops, western food cafes, trekking companies and wall to wall stores selling Tibetan souvenirs and many more goodies. Also known as Little Lhasa and the abode of the Dalai Lama, the Tibetan spiritual influence and its mystical green hills mark McLeod Ganj as a significant tourist destination and a major traveller hang-out in the Kangra Valley. A 5-minute walk south of this town will take one to the Tsuglagkhang Complex, which comprises the official residence of the 14th Dalai Lama, vibrant monasteries with beautiful murals and even a bookshop cafe that goes by the name of Namgyal Gompa. Tourist activity after monsoon picks up, after October, with February March being pleasant months to visit the hill station to witness the Losar Festival or the Tibetan New Year being celebrated. This compact sized town is best explored and enjoyed by walking or trekking. Intriguing short walks around Mcleod Ganj include one that goes 2km east to Bhagsu which leads one to a waterfall and a temple. The most well-known trek, 8 km starting from the town, is to Triund, a snow-flanked and serene camping spot from which one can also travel 5 km ahead to reach a charming little forest rest house. With many many hipster eateries, the food here is some of the best you'll find at any mountain destination.

Barely 18 kms from Dharamshala, Kangra is the perfect weekend getaway for tourists and explorers alike. This small bustling city hides away quite a few marvels within its Dhauladhar Ranges. Those looking to nestle amidst its simplistic beauty must make it a priority to visit Pragpur village, which is India's only heritage village, a place with an allure that can only be compared with those colourful little European hamlets one has only seen on TV or in children's books. Another not so well known gem in this city is the Masroor Monolith Rock temple, which is an 8th century archeological wonder made of a group of 15 temples carved out of rock, with a pond in the foreground. A location that remains a favourite with tourists is the Kangra Fort, with ramparts over a 4 km stretch protecting it, atop a hill at the conflux of Patal Ganga and Banganga river. A 200 metre walk up the road from the Kangra Fort is all that is needed for those wanting to delve more into the city's history, where they shall reach the Maharaja Sansar Chand Museum, which provides an insight into the luxurious lifestyle once led by the Katochs, the erstwhile Kangra Royal family. Adventure seekers will love the various treks that go through the Dhauladhar Ranges usually ending near the Chamba valley, providing picturesque views. The city houses some of the most charming little cafes that to every book worm's delight have a shelf full of books and cook everything from Himachali, Italian and Tibetan cuisines on the menu. Some renowned cafes and restaurants are Moonpeak, Peace Cafe, Nechung Cafe, Snow Lion Cafe, Jimmy's Italian Cafe and Indique, wherein one can also enjoy live music nights.

Located in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand, Nainital is one of the most beautiful hill stations in Northern India. The stunning Nainital lake is bang in the middle of the city and offers tourists stunning sunsets and enchanting sunrises. One legend says that Nainital derives its name from the Goddess Naina, whereas another legend claims that once when the Goddess Sati was being carried by Lord Shiva, her eye fell in the area. The lovely hill station promises a rejuvenating weekend break for those who are coming from the capital city and is definitely worth a visit. Like most hill stations, Nainital has a bustling mall road, warm cafes and a very busy Tibet market. The mall road houses shops selling candles with intricate designs, wooden knick knacks and colourful woollens. Do bring back some souvenirs as keepsakes! If you have time, do visit Sattal, Naukuchiatal (for paragliding and kayaking) as well as Ranikhet for its surreal beauty. If you are looking for a quiet, carefree holiday, visit between the months of January and April. It'll be cold, but there won't be any crowd.

A quick getaway destination for Delhi-NCR residents, Mussoorie or the 'Queen of Hills' is the most favoured place for anyone battling urban heat. It remains quite crowded from May to July, as popular hotels and hangouts such as Mall Road, Mussoorie Lake, Kempty Falls and Gun Hill remain pervaded with tourists no matter where or what you may set your eyes upon. But if you carry the spirit of an explorer within you, Mussoorie can surprise you in many ways. For instance, if you curious to check out where the man who Mt. Everest is named after, once lived, you can reach the house and laboratory through a picturesque 4 km walk from Library Bazaar or Gandhi Chowk. Ditch the customary visit to Kempty Falls and take an uplifting trek to the quiet, serene and crystal clear Jharipani Falls instead. Mussoorie, when mist free, provides frame-worthy views of the Himalayan ranges, which can be enjoyed at points such as Lal Tibba, Nag Tibba and Camel Back Road, all of which need to be trekked or walked to, with the effort being worthwhile. Devalsari, a village quietly burrowed 55 km away from Mussoorie, is the gateway to the Nag Tibba trek and a location perfect for seeing beautiful butterflies and birds in the heart of nature. For those curious to delve into Himalayan life, history, art, culture and spirituality, Soham Heritage and Art Centre gives exquisite displays of the former, through various artefacts. As for foodies, restaurants such as Neelam, Imperial Square, Meeting Point Cafe and Casa Mia bakery do justice to North Indian, European and Tibetan cuisines and also offer delicious cafe knick knacks and drinks.

Stratford city council okays snowmobiles
The Stratford city council took up the issue of snowmobiles operating within the city limits at their regular session for January.
The council authorized Mayor Mike Neperney to sign the DOT application from Webster City Snowmobile Club for snowmobiles on state highway 175 within the city limits. The city manager was authorized to create a resolution to approve the proposed snowmobile route on the city's right of ways, noting that this approval does not include crossing over private properties.
Most of the meeting was spent on numerous organizational issues for the new year, including approval of the appointment of councilman Rick Woodard as mayor pro term. Other appointments made were:
Mayor Neperney as representative and city manager Rachel Cahill as alternate to the North Central Iowa Regional Solid Waste Agency.
Cahill and councilman Brian Wilde as Hamilton County S.E.E.D. board members.
Cahill as director and council member Julie Ehresmann as alternate representative on Iowa Agency for Municipal Wind Board.
Also at the meeting, budget requests for fiscal year 2014 were received:
Stratford library is requesting a $1,000 increase in their budget request, but their budget also shows that revenues from county and state are higher than last year.
The fire department is requesting an crease of $5,000. Township levies for fire support have also increased.
Upper Des Moines Opportunity budget request of $470 was approved.
In other business, Cahill reviewed the city council action plan with the council. The council voted to remove the goal "adopt zoning" from the action plan.
The council also looked at one new ordinance, approving the first reading and waiving the second and third readings in order to facilitate the new solid waste collection contract beginning January 1, 2013, with the solid waste collection contractor and enact a fee of $25 to temporarily discontinue garbage service, with the ordinance effective on publication.
Cahill presented an overview of the FY14 budget to the council. There will be a budget workshop at 6:00 p.m. before the next regular council meeting on February 11.

Recently I was hired to work on a Government project. They are 100% Microsoft shop expect for few Redhat boxes and Cisco gear.
They also have lots of customized VPN and cisco routers supplied by local company. Apart from securing those RHEL boxes, I had to connect routers / vpn devices via a local com port to upgrade BIOS and other configurations. They have Windows vista on all desktops and my Laptop has no serial port. So I decided to use old good HyperTerminal. I thought HyperTerminal is still under the Programs > Accessories > Communications menu. I failed to locate hypertrm.exe. From Microsoft support website:
HyperTerminal is no longer part of Windows. There are several options you can use to replace its functionality. If you previously used HyperTerminal to control serial devices, you can usually find a downloadable version of HyperTerminal on the Internet that is free for personal use.
So what was the purpose of removing Hyper terminal from vista ? How do you use the equivalent of Hyperterminal in XP, with Windows Vista to configure Cisco routers?

Avoid Home Repair Pitfalls
Avoid Home Repair Pitfalls
By Attorney General Roy Cooper
The home repair season is in full swing and the sounds of saws and hammers (or nail guns) can be heard far and wide. While many repair jobs go pretty much as planned, others can turn into a nightmare for the homeowner.
Most home repair services are legitimate, but some scam artists posing as contractors use discounted prices or even scare tactics to entice homeowners.
They knock on your door and offer to repave your driveway using materials they say are left over from a nearby job. These crooks spray an oily black substance on your driveway that washes away in the next rain, or a lay down a paper-thin coating of asphalt that begins to crumble within days.
Or they may claim to spot damage to your roof from a recent storm and promise that they can repair it and falsely claim that your insurance company will pick up the tab. Or they'll say your chimney is about to separate from your house and must be fixed immediately. The repair job isn't needed, but they'll charge you hundreds or even thousands of dollars for it.
These fraudsters work in a geographic area and then move on, making them difficult to catch. If you've been approached by a home repair scammer, report it to us at 1-877-5-NO-SCAM and to local law enforcement. We've been able to shut down some of the scammers and win money back for victims. We've also formed a task force bringing together our consumer protection experts, State Bureau of Investigation financial crimes agents, local police and prosecutors to target home repair fraud rings.
But we'd rather help you avoid problems in the first place. To keep your home repair job from going off-course, take these steps:
Knock, knock…
Be wary of unsolicited offers for home repairs. Avoid contractors who leave flyers on your door or mailbox. Be highly skeptical if a contractor comes to your door and says he noticed a problem with your home that needs to be fixed right away. Don't let anyone pressure you into paying for a phony repair.
Shop around
When you decide that you want work done on your home, begin by looking for the right person or company top do the job. Ask friends and family for recommendations.
Compare (written) offers
Oral guarantees aren't worth the paper they aren't written on. When you've identified some possible candidates for the work you need done, get at least three written estimates.
Due diligence
Check references carefully. Ask for the name of the contractor's insurance company, and contact the insurance company to verify their coverage is up-to-date. (This is especially important for roofing, painting, or tree removal services.) Contact the Better Business Bureau and my office to see if the firm has a history of complaints.
Check licenses
If you are hiring a professional who should be licensed, make sure they are. For General Contractors, visit
or call (919) 571-4138; for Electricians, visit
or call (919) 733-9042; and for Plumbers or HVAC Contractors, visit
or call (919) 875-3612.
Get it in writing
When you've selected a contractor, get a written contract. It should clearly state the work to be performed, estimated start and completion dates, the quality of the materials to be used, and the total cost including labor and materials. The contract should also state who is responsible for clean-up and trash removal once the job is done.
Second thoughts? Know your rights
If you signed your contract at your home (rather than at the contractor's place of business), under North Carolina law you have three business days to cancel it.
Pay as you go
Try to avoid making any payments before the work begins. (A down payment may be required for some projects, but don't pay until you have a signed contract.) If possible, make payments as the work is completed. Never make a final payment until you are satisfied with the job.

Measurements & Ordering The Right Size
Shoe sizes vary by style—they run long, short, wide or narrow. We test fit size 8.5 shoes, and sometimes recommend ordering a larger or smaller size. Look for this information on any product page. (e.g. Fit: Runs long, buy a half size down.)
If one foot is larger than the other, always fit the larger foot.
The letters "4A", "3A", "2A", "B", or "C" below the sizes refer to the width of the shoe. The following chart explains the various widths Arthur Beren carries:
|4A or SS
|= Extra Narrow
|2A or N
|= Narrow
|B or M
|= Medium (Standard)
|C or D or W
|= Wide
|2E or WW
|= Extra Wide
Fitting Tips
Get sized regularly by a professional, preferably using a Brannock device. It is important to measure the width of the foot and to take into consideration the type of arch you have.
Wear the right socks. Consider your plans and activities and wear the most breathable and absorbent socks or stockings for the occasion with the appropriate footwear. If going bare, keep clean and dry.
Check the construction. Look at the sole and heel of the shoe to see what kind of terrain the shoe is meant to handle. Also look inside to assess the lining and upper elements of the shoe, checking to see how they will address your needs. A leather lined shoe will generally last longer than one without lining, though the unlined shoe may be lighter and more appreciated in warmer climates.
Walk around. When trying on a new pair of shoes, always try on both pair and walk around a bit - always on a clean indoor surface of course. Flex your arch and toes to see if the shoes feel good while you move about. Try shoes on in the afternoon or evening. Feet swell to their largest as the day progresses, so you will get a better reading of your true size once your feet have warmed up to the day.
Some Specifics
Allow some time to break in a great pair of leather shoes--the best ones are a little tight in the beginning. By doing it right you'll have shoes that are molded to your feet perfectly. See the How To Care tab for advice on proper shoe maintenance.
If the upper of the shoe is made of elastic or an elastic-blend fabric the shoe should fit snugly and need no breaking in. Shoes should never squeeze or cramp your toes.
If your shoes are slightly too loose in the in-step, a toe pad can be added to create a better fit, preventing any unnecessary friction.
For more heel and arch support or extra cushioning, consider custom fitted orthotic inserts, or even some gel inserts to target the problem.
Fitting Questions? Please call 1-888-400-2623 or email 'firstname.lastname@example.com'

Lamborghini has just revealed a new Bicolore edition Gallardo 560-4 at the Qatar Auto Show.
It's a striking vehicle but comes as little surprise following on from the Gallardo SE revealed back in 2006. The new 560-4 version sports a familiar high-contrast paint scheme with black covering the roof section, pillars, front air intakes and front spoiler. There's also special titanium-finish multispoke Skorplus alloys filling the guards. The remainder of the bodywork can be purchased in yellow, orange, silver, blue or white, while the interior is black leather with contrasting stitching to match the exterior color.
The Gallardo LP 560-4 Bicolore comes packing Lambo's V10 engine pumping out 560-horsepower and putting it to the ground through an all-wheel drive system. The model is exclusive to the European and Asia-Pacific markets. The North American market will receive the Bicolore treatment on the LP 550-2, which is the the rear-wheel-drive, 550-hp car.

Product Tip
Wide Plank Floors are made from natural products, or visually simulate natural products, such that variations in color, grain structure and character can be expected from board to board. This is particularly true with respect to color variation, grain structure, and knots. Speak to your Wide Plank Specialist about what you can expect in the floor you have chosen.
Images are provided to assist our customers in making a flooring selection. They represent color, grain and other related characteristics within a given flooring type. Color in these images may vary from the actual floor due to the translation and reproduction limitations of photo reproduction, website resolution and individual monitors color and resolution settings. Color, grain, and character appearance will vary from these images due to the specific conditions of the areas in which installation occurs as well as the variation inherent in a natural product.

Rabideau: Village likely won't back rail grant
SARANAC LAKE – Village Mayor Clyde Rabideau said Monday that he doubts the village Board of Trustees will endorse the Adirondack Railway Preservation Society's application for a $15.2 million federal grant to rehabilitate the railroad tracks between Big Moose and Saranac Lake.
"I have not heard support at this point," Rabideau told the Enterprise after Monday night's village board meeting.
His comments followed a presentation by ARPS board President Al Dunham, who asked the board to approve a resolution supporting the application by ARPS and the Adirondack North Country Association through the federal Strategic Transportation Enhancement Plan. The $15.2 million would be used to upgrade rails, ties and the ballast on a 68-mile stretch of track, Dunham said.
"It would get it up to Class II, which then gives trains the opportunity to run at 30 to 35 miles an hour," Dunham said. "That gives us ample travel corridor to use excursion trains, scenic trains, special event trains and trains that would have people on board, say from the Wild Center teaching nature down through the corridor."
While the grant application doesn't include any plans for a trail alongside the rail corridor, Dunham said his group's business plan calls for rails with trails. Once the tracks are rehabilitated, he said trains could be used to provide skiers, hikers and cross-country skiers access to spur trails located off the corridor.
"It would have been ideal if we had a partner that would have come in for some trail plans; we would have put the grant in for maybe $30 million," Dunham said. "But we only had about 10 days to do this, and nobody offered to come in with us. We found out about this grant in the middle of February."
Dunham said ARPS has so far received roughly 20 letters of support for the grant application from other local governments and organizations.
Shortly after Dunham's presentation, representatives of Adirondack Recreational Trail Advocates spoke up and urged the board not to endorse the grant application. They cited the resolutions passed by five municipalities, including Saranac Lake's village board, that call on the state to reopen the unit management plan for the Remsen-Lake Placid Travel Corridor.
"This is a ploy on behalf of ANCA and the railroad buffs to basically subvert the very democratic process under the unit management plan that would allow all interested parties on both sides of this debate to finally be heard in a fair setting," said ARTA President Joe Mercurio. "If they can get (the $15.2 million), basically what's going to happen is, they're going to shut down the UMP process altogether. If they get those tracks in place, no one in their right mind would rip them up, and that will be the end of the possibility of anybody being heard."
"This rail experiment has been going on for close to 15 years," said Saranac Lake resident Rich Shapiro. "It's supposed to be self-sufficient, not using taxpayer money, yet on and on it goes, getting taxpayer money to maintain the rails.
"The grant they're applying for is not for a rail-with-trail program. The trails outlined here are not through travel trails; they're spurs that go off. It will not enable people to go from Saranac Lake to Tupper Lake to Thendara, et cetera, which is really where the money will come in from a tourist standpoint."
Trustees asked a few questions but made no decision on supporting the grant application Monday night.
Rabideau said he could "lean" in favor of it if the $15.2 million was for restoring rail service between Tupper Lake and Saranac Lake and was for both rails and trails, but that's not what's being proposed. As it stands, Rabideau said he thinks "the odds are long" that ARPS and ANCA would get the $15.2 million.
"I just don't think the federal government throws around $15 million willy-nilly on a proposal that was developed practically overnight, as was stated by the presenter here," the mayor said after the meeting. "I really do believe the UMP will speak for the voice of the people once it's all said and done. Then we should go apply for the appropriate grants based upon the direction given during the UMP process."

TAMPA BAY, Fla. – The Tampa Bay Lightning, NHL parent club of the Norfolk Admirals, have recalled defenseman Marc-Andre Bergeron from the Admirals today, Lightning Vice President and General Manager Steve Yzerman announced.
Bergeron, 5-foot-9, 198 pounds, has played in 13 games with the Admirals this season, posting two goals and eight points after being signed as a free agent on January 4. He played in 60 games with the Montreal Canadiens last season, recording 13 goals and 34 points. He led all Montreal defensemen in goals and was tied for the lead in points. Bergeron was tied for the team lead for game-winning goals with four and third for power play goals with seven. He was tied for ninth in the NHL for goals among defensemen. Bergeron also played in three games with Montreal's AHL affiliate, the Hamilton Bulldogs, notching six assists.
A native of Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, Bergeron has played in 399 career NHL games with the Edmonton Oilers, New York Islanders, Anaheim Ducks, Minnesota Wild and the Canadiens. He has amassed 75 goals, 43 power play goals and 194 points. During the previous two seasons the offensive defenseman has ranked tied for fourth in the NHL among defensemen in goals with 27 and fifth for goals per game with .205. Bergeron has eclipsed the 10-goal barrier on three occasions since the 2005-06 season (2005-06, 15; 2008-09, 14; 2009-10, 13). Bergeron has also played in 43 career Stanley Cup Playoff games, recording five goals and 12 points, including 19 games last season with Montreal.
Bergeron was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Oilers on July 20, 2001.

For Query: 10.1413.1 Thanks everyone for the help with this subject, here are the replies That I received... - -------------------------- Typically, since discourse analyses are trees, one can use any normal method of displaying trees. For examples and other interesting stuff, see Daniel Maruc's recent thesis and forthcoming book, http://www.cs.toronto.edu/compling/Publications/Abstracts/Theses/MarcuPhD-thabs.html and links on his home page http://www.isi.edu/~marcu/ - \\\ Graeme Hirst /// University of Toronto * Department of Computer Science \\\ ghcs.toronto.edu * Voice +1 416 978 8747 * Fax +1 416 978 1455 /// http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~gh - -------------------------- As a linguisitics student, I've never been totally clear on what "discourse analysis" is and what was included in it. It seems to me that all that intellectual territory beyond the individual sentence hasn't really been adequately mapped. I get the impression that "discourse analysis" generally refers to rather high-level sociolinguistic stuff that I'm not that well acquainted with. Anyway, if you're interested in relatively "local" aspects of discourse structure (anaphora, tracking of "discourse referents", some aspects of modality and tense, cohesion, etc.), then you might want to look at Discourse Representation Theory and the Mental Spaces framework. For DRT, the standard reference is Hans Kamp and Uwe Reyle's _From Discourse to Logic_ (1993); for mental spaces, Gilles Fauconnier's books _Mental Spaces_ (1985, 2nd edition 1994) and _Mappings in Thought and Language_ (1997). I'd also recommend John Dinsmore's _Partitioned Representations_ (1991) for a sort of unified look at the basic issues that motivated both frameworks. All of these frameworks divide up the universe of discourse into a bunch of structures, each of which contains various individuals as well as partial world descriptions. Thus, one has belief spaces, hypothetical spaces, fictional spaces, etc. There are a lot of subtle and interesting differences between the various frameworks (e.g. Fauconnier has a notion of "counterparts" - discourse referents in different spaces that are connected in some way (in order to deal with referential opacity and the like) that, if it recall correctly, doesn't have an equivilant in DRT). Anyway, I'm not sure if this is the sort of thing you are looking for or if you're thinking of something else, like register or conversational turn-taking or something. Regardless I'd be very interested in seeing a summary of the other responses you get and hearing more about you're research. Chris - Chris Johnson chrajohnindiana.edu - -------------------------- There are diagrams for showing the interpersonal relationships in a conversation, but I'm not sure that is what you are after. Cheers, Deborah - Deborah D. Kela Ruuskanen Leankuja 1, FIN-01420 Vantaa druuskancc.helsinki.fi - -------------------------- I know that SIL (the Summer Inst. of Linguistics) which is studying dozens (maybe hundreds) of indigenous languages throughout the world has developed a huge number of language analytical softwear programs. Some of them MUST include discourse, since SIL has been involved in that area for years. I suggest you write their linguistic coordinator, Mike Cahill at :mike_cahillsil.org and ask him to refer your inquiry to their computer people. Hope this helps.

Topic: Git question
Hope it's okay to ask a Git question here.
I'd like to know if I always need to run a Git rm command whenever I want to delete (or have already deleted) a file.
This is what happened that makes me wonder:
In Rails, I deleted the default public/index.html file, then updated my routes so that root points to a different file.
Then, after several other changes, did:
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "new home page"
$ git push heroku master
$ heroku open
When the browser opened, I still saw the default rails home page. So I did a git rm index.html, and repeated the above. This time my home page was what I wanted.
I was glad that the problem was solved, but left wondering about why I had to take the extra step of doing a git rm to remove a file that I had already deleted. Is this normal?

Twila Enget
Twila Emma Marie Carlson Enget, 89, Kenmare, formerly of Minot and Powers Lake, went to meet her Lord on Saturday, April 6, 2013. She passed away at the Kenmare Community Hospital.
Twila was born Dec. 7, 1923, to Otto M. and Mabel (Hjort) Carlson, on the family farm near Kenmare. She graduated from Kenmare High School in 1941. She earned a standard teaching certificate and taught at Kandiyohi Country School for four years.
Twila married Avery Enget on Aug. 2, 1946, at the Niobe Baptist Church. They lived in Powers Lake for five years. While in Powers Lake their three children were born, LeeNae, Patricia and Dwight. In 1951 they moved to Kenmare. She was employed at the Kenmare Hospital for two years. In 1962, she started working for J.C. Penney Co. in Kenmare, then transferred to the Minot store in 1967 when they moved to Minot. She retired in 1983. They moved back to Powers Lake in 1989. Avery passed away on Feb. 2, 2003. Twila then moved to the Baptist Home Assisted Living in Kenmare and later to the Kenmare Community Hospital.
Twila was a member of the Kenmare First Baptist Church, Immanuel Baptist Church of Minot and Bethel Baptist Church of Powers Lake. Her strong faith led her to being very active in the church as pianist, Sunday school teacher, youth leader and the ladies circle. When she was able, she enjoyed having flowers inside and outdoors, baking brown bread, reading, ceramics and handiwork. Her family was very important to her. She always played an important role in the lives of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She will be truly missed.
Twila is survived by: her daughters, LeeNae (Dale) Domsten, Muskegon, Mich., and Patricia (Wayne) Christensen, Flaxton; son, Dwight (Maria) Enget, Scottsdale, Ariz.; grandchildren, Greg (Katie) Domsten, Dana (Jimmy) Gretzinger, Melissa (Ryan) Delp, Melanie (Scot) Barrett, Curtis (Michelle) Christensen, Brent Christensen and Denise (Marshall) Chrest; 15 great-grandchildren; sisters-in-law, Joan Enget, Arvada, Colo., Adeline (Lyman) Lorentzen, Fargo, and Eleanor Enget, Powers Lake; and brother-in-law, Glenn Arrison, Fargo.
Twila was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Avery; and brothers, Raymond, Russell and James "Bud" Carlson.
Funeral: Friday, April 12, 2013, at 2 p.m. at Bethel Baptist Church, Powers Lake.

European Commission, UN Environment step up cooperation to protect the world's oceans 20/12/2016 00:00:00
Mushrooming Cooperation 05/12/2016 00:00:00
London, 19 November 2012- Ladies and gentlemen,
We meet some six months after Rio+20 held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in June.
A Summit that came amidst a backdrop of an on going financial and economic crisis at least in some parts of the globe and where a sovereign debt crisis still dominates the headlines in Europe and elsewhere.
Rio+20 was not a summit of big new treaties-it was designed to be a summit of finding the means of implementing sustainable development.
UNEP pinned its colours in the run up to Rio+20 to the Green Economy.
In collaboration with many partners, UNEP convened the economists and the experts to assess how a transition to a low carbon resource efficient Green Economy.
An economy where growth is significantly decoupled from natural resource use, where investments deliver on multiple fronts-environmental, economic and social-and an economy able to deliver perhaps the biggest political challenge of all, everywhere: significant numbers of jobs, decent jobs, for young people.
Overall such an economy would be one where environmentalists become more economically literate and economists grasp a wider understanding of wealth and the risks to economies and whole supply chains from ecological shocks and natural resource scarcities.
So did Rio+20 deliver-and does it outcome document, The Future We Want offer a possibility of a different kind of development path for seven billion people, rising to over nine billion by 2050?
Are there in the seeds of that outcome and the follow up processes underway at the UN in New York and elsewhere represent a possible transformation of our economies and better ways of managing risks-including E-RISC in respect to sovereign debt?
The answer is a cautions yes.
Heads of State and governments enabled the inclusive Green Economy, in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication as one important tool towards realizing a sustainable century.
UNEP, in collaboration with partners including the UN Industrial Development Organization and with funding from the Republic of Korea Are now moving forward on an initiative called PAGE-a partnership for auctioning a green economy in developing countries.
Other nations are now also developing pathways to a Green Economy-last week experts in China predicted that $1.28 trillion will be invested in green development as part of its 12th Five Year Plan up to 2015 for example.
Other encouraging pathways, aimed at realizing an inclusive Green Economy that may reduce risks linked with climate change and ecological scarcities, also emerged at Rio+20.
Beyond GDP
Governments agreed to work towards a new indicator of wealth beyond the narrowness and bluntness of GDP.
The work to craft a new indicator is already underway building on work by the UN statistical office.
Some of this work dovetails with the UNEP-hosted The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity where nations from Brazil to India are valuing the multi-billion, multi-trillion dollar global services provided and generated by nature-from forests to freshwaters-as a step towards building these wealth indicators into mainstream economic and development planning.
It dovetails with the WAVES Partnership (Wealth Accounting and Valuation of Ecosystem Services).
Other encouraging signs are an evolution of corporate sustainability reporting-an initiative led by countries including Brazil, Denmark, France and South Africa supported by UNEP and the Global Reporting Initiative.
Since 1992 and with assistance from UNEP FI, some 25 per cent of large companies report their environmental, governance and social footprints-but 75 per cent do not.
The new initiative is looking to transform corporate sustainability reporting from an opt in to an opt out landscape-a situation where companies have to explain why they do not want to report rather than the other way round.
Sustainable procurement by countries and cities and the go-ahead for a 10 Year Framework of Programmes on sustainable consumption and production also represent steps forward to a more sustainable 21st century.
As do the designing of Sustainable Development Goals by 2015-goals that could bring the North and the South into common cause underpinned by new indicators of sustainability.
It against this promising backdrop that UNEP fi with many partners present the E-RISC report and initiative today.
While some of the previous initiatives are in large part multilaterally and government driven, we also need a complimentary, supportive pathway that is "business focused and business driven".
The drive from food and beverage companies such as Unilever and others to reduce the net environmental impact in their whole supply chain is a good example.
The 'E-RISC report' launched here and aimed at informing your discourse and ultimately action is part of this thrust.
The fact is that while markets may be factoring environmental, social and governance factors into some stocks and share-and while there are several inspiring indexes in place from the Bovespa sustainability index in Brazil to the Footsie for Good in the UK-capital markets are currently all but silent on ESG issues in respect to debt including sovereign debt.
A big reason for not doing so is the perceived level of immateriality.
A second major reason is more technical of nature - namely the difficulty linking ESG factors with mainstream economic and credit risk factors.
The E-RISC report represents a good starting point for bridging these two worlds.
On the one hand it has provided the economic and financial arguments to bond holders, rating agencies and others that natural resource and environmental risks ought to be factored in mainstream sovereign credit risk analysis.
Second, it has also provided a first attempt in identifying how these factors can be integrated in sovereign credit risk analysis.
Your meeting here can, through an in-depth debate, take these issues forward and I look forward to an intense and productive discourse.
We are living in a time where climate change can, almost overnight, disrupt supply chains across the globe.
Where natural resource declines threaten prosperity and our abilities to overcome poverty.
The science is clear-without better valuing and incopoerating the natural capital and its productivity into markets including debt markets we are not on a road from Rio, but a road to nowhere.
There are many positive signals emerging and many inspiring actions by governments, cities, companies and investors-the challenge is to bring these from the fringe into the mainstream.
Your presence here at Bloomberg underlines that you share a similar vision.
Thank you.

Food Habits
The maned wolf is omnivorous. It eats armadillos, rabbits, rodents and other small mammals, fish, birds, bird eggs, reptiles, gastropods and other terrestrial mollusks, insects, seasonably available fruits, and other vegetation. Fruits taken include bananas, guavas, and primarily the tomato-like Solanum lycocarpum. (S. lycocarpum may provide medicinal aid against Dioctophyme renale, a worm that infects the kidneys of the maned wolf). Vegetation eaten is often in the form of roots and bulbs. Vertebrate prey do not often include large domestic stock, but an occasional newborn lamb or pig is taken by Chrysocyon. The maned wolf, much to the dislike of poultry farmers, frequently feeds upon free-ranging chickens. It stalks and pounces in a fox-like manner upon its animal prey.

Wedding hairstyle with long beautiful curls
This long light golden blonde hair is curled to maximize volume for a bridal hairstyle. Styling start at about eye level, and curls are medium-sized, falling all the way down to the bust line. A few longs are brushed forward on the side before a sparkling headband is put on. An off-center part slightly lifts the forelocks over the forehead. Curls are then slightly pulled out and apart, to increase volume and relax the look a bit. This look is best worn with low necklines or tubes, as seen here.

Introduction to Engineering
The student is introduced to engineering through participation, as a member of a team, in a complete design project. The synthesis of many fields involving the laws of nature, mathematics, economics, management, and communication is required in the project. Engineering principles of analysis, experimentation, and design are applied to a real problem, from initial concept to final recommendations. The project results are evaluated in terms of technical and economic feasibility and social significance. Lectures are directed toward the problem, and experiments are designed by students as the need develops. Enrollment is limited to 64 students.
Prerequisite: MATHEMATICS 3 or permission of the instructor.
Distributive: TAS
MWF at 10:00-11:05, plus Thursday (X-hour) from 12:00-12:50. The x-hour will be used for regular meetings during the first half of the course. The course also requires development of 4 project milestones - some of your presentations will need to be scheduled outside the normal class time.
This course does not use a textbook, but some useful reference books are listed at the end of this page.
ENGS 21 does not have homework assignments or examinations in the usual sense. Your grade will be based on the performance of your project team, as evidenced by four written reports and three oral presentations (white paper, project proposal, progress report, and final report) and the design and development of a prototype of a novel device, system, or process, which addresses a demonstrated need consistent with the course theme. Additional information about the milestones and the course objectives can be found in the circular "ENGS 21: Objectives and Expectations".
Support & Resources
As described in the circular, "ENGS 21: Project Support Services", you will have access to the multitude of technical and administrative support services and facilities available at the Thayer School, plus a $500 discretionary budget to complete the project. Your team will also be assigned an experienced teaching assistant, who will help keep the team on track and who understands the ENGS 21 project experience.
More information about this course, including guidelines and rubrics for evaluation of the four project milestones, handouts, and links to useful information, is available at the ENGS 21 Blackboard site. You can login to Blackboard using your DND username and password. If you have registered for ENGS 21, you will see a link in your "My Courses" list.

Image-guided minimally invasive surgery has revolutionized the standard of care throughout the body. While robotics has been an important part of the solution for certain laparoscopic procedures, its impact has been limited by the size and straight-line access requirement of many existing robotic systems. Our lab is investigating smaller, less-invasive robot technologies and two will be described in this talk. The first is a type of continuum robot that is based on concentrically combining pre-curved elastic tubes. We are designing these robots together with a tool set with the goal of converting intracardiac procedures currently performed as open-heart surgery to percutaneous, beating-heart interventions. We are also developing tetherless robots that can move or swim inside the body and that are powered, controlled and imaged using an MRI scanner. Applications of this technology at several length scales will be discussed including robotic implants for applying tissue traction forces and millimeter-scale robots for targeted drug delivery.

Tampa Bay Bucs Blount Is Fine After Seeing Specialist in Charlotte
Tampa Bay Bucs running back LeGarrette Blount underwent an MRI to check his back and his neck in Charlotte on Wednesday. The results of the MRI turned out negative and he will return to practice on Thursday according to general manager Mark Dominik. "We sent him to a specialist to see what was going on," Dominik said. "The specialist cleared him, he's fine. "He felt a stinger and it made us nervous the way he felt it," Dominik continued. "That's… Read More »

I just discovered this blog through my sister and I'm addicted! I'm a cosmetologist but, since having my first baby (5 years ago) I haven't worked in a salon. As much as I try, I sometimes can't help to feel like a frumpy/out-of-the-loop Mommy! This blog is definitely helping me to change that!
