I see no way Fugaku could be proud of Itachi. You can love your monstrous other, but to be proud of them means you accept and potentially even support their actions. Fugaku and company were staging a revolt. They wanted something (power? freedom? Hanabi?) so desperately that they were willing to almost destroy the world (as we know it) in the process. Anyone with that mindset could never be proud of anyone that stood against them. You could potentially respect your opponents dedication or zeal (etc), but to be proud of them does not make sense.
Note, this could be a translation error, in which case I blame the translator not Kishimoto...

good chapt but i just expected more of a bombshell this week. i noticed that many ppl dont talk about the fact that the coup was in many ways konohas fault, think about it . the village blamed the uchiha for the nine tails attack by madara. the uchiha as a clan had nothing to do with it, and yet they are blamed. i also sense that because madara is a uchiha its ok to blame the clan itself. what was the clan to do they saw how the village was treating them, and after they were put away so to speak, they saw the writing on the wall that sooner or later the village was comeing after them(esp after the nine tails attack .this is the ninja world we are talking about and the uchiha knew how the village deals with problems. were they to sit around and wait to be gutted, they had a right to defend themselves against a village that thought them guilty of a attack (nine tails) of which they were blameless.

You assume that the village would "gut" them, but there was no sign of that, they never knew that Itachi was spying on them and based on that the village knew about what were they planning. If the village didn't know about their plans there would be no reason to kill them. And if the village doesn't plan to kill them then why attack the village? They had no right to attack the village, they could have just left the village and offered their power to another village or take over a smaller village like Orochimaru did.

As far as the reason for the rebellion I'm always surprised how the fact that the Uchiha were told to live in a compound at the outskirt of the village is completely overlooked as something not that important. There is a reason why population transfer is considered both a war crime and a crime against humanity now. Isolating a segment of a population is almost always the first move before pogrom and genocide. This decision alone justifies open revolt (althought there is no denying the Uchiha went about it so badly it's ridiculous).
In the other hand James I don't think just leaving was a realistic option. Without even going into the feasibility of deserting en masse Konoha it's not like they hadn't been at war with the rest of the world for generations. The idea that they had somehow a better chance in the foreign villages they had been fighting forever than in their own doesn't make much sense.
Secondly why would they leave in the first place? Konoha was their home, it makes more sense to overthrow the government screwing with you than taking your chance with your ennemies as your ex-comrades track you down.

That being said, considering that Orochimaru was able to create his own hidden villiage seemingly overnight, I don't see what prevented the Uchiha from doing something similar. Or, maybe they could have petitioned the Daimyo to become Royal guards. Or, they could have simply gone on strike, forcing Konoha to either kill them needlessly, or actually discuss the problem (I find it hard to believe that some Yamanaka's couldn't mindfuck the Uchiha clan to find out their involvement in the Kyuubi incident...and if the Uchiha were too proud to accept this level of inquiry, then they were even bigger idiots than I imagined).
Whatever the case, the options chosen by all involved was simply asinine, and I sincerely wish that there could have been some actually discussion of the various possibilities in determining why war was the better option.

I don't think, if there is a civil war, uchiha clan would lose because itachi alone is already a bad ass powerful ninja.. The shitty reason of trying to protect sasuke is a farce because there is other way to do that.. Plus, leaving sasuke in a tiger den is so much for trying to protect him eh??
The only explanation here is that the whole uchiha clan is EVIL, no other reason for itachi not to side with them if they're not evil.. makes no sense..

I can adhere the whole story in Naruto except the Uchiha massacre
Why confiding the mission to one ninja when facing an entire clan. What if that fails? The Uchiha will revolt immediately. What were Danzo thinking when taking this decision?
Balancing the survive of his brother and the massacre of the whole family, if I were Itachi, I would have fleed after kidnapping Sasuke, if what matters was Sasuke to survive.
Why would Tobi agree to kill the Uchihas? We know he is not Madara. He does not have really a reason.
Why would Itachi try to negotiate a deal with Tobi? It is a random dude he met for the first time. He is so suspicious, I would not trust him to keep his word especially letting the village safe.
Well, now it is over and there are other interesting things to know.
PS: if he killed the parents when they were kneeling down, I don't understand how the bodies are disposed like that

We're talking about 2 men annihilate the entire uchiha clan here, it's either those 2 men are super duper powerful or the 'uchiha clan' is super lame and the former is more likely.. it's a matter of which side they choose and the one they choose will be pretty much harmless..
if ya think konoha side would be able to put much of a fight against uchiha clan especially with itachi on their side then we see things differently..
It's easy, siding with konoha, itachi picks tobi, siding with the clan, itachi can pick orochimaru who we saw weakened konoha to a pretty bad shape himself..
if uchiha clan is trying to stage coup d etat then I fail to see how's that too evil.. they just wanted to take control and in the contrary konoha wanted to annihilate ALL OF THEM including the unknowing children.. who's evil now?? not too mention they did it in the manner of asking uchiha own clan to do it.. wow..

And as i already wrote earlier there is no reason to give the Uchiha some fixed place in the leadership just because they are the Uchiha. Having priviledges like that based on which clan you are in would lead to the village breaking up. If you look at the hokage position it was never given based on what are the clan memberships, but based on merits. The elders were not Senju either. It's true that the current hokage is a Senju descendant, but she was never the first choice.

But still, the really first unforgivable (politically speaking) move came from the Elders with the transfer of the clan out of the village. That's so dumb and counter-productive that I still hope it was purposely staged by Danzou to force the issue so at least someone could be immoral but not completely devoid of intelligence. You won't see me hold my breath though.
And that's why I don't buy the blame game on the Uchiha for being eventually responsible for a future world war (and don't get me started into this so called obvious result when nothing happened after multiple Kyubi attacks, a war against the Sand, the destruction of the village or the actual coups in the Mist village to take another example). From my point of view the responsibility comes first from the systematic bad decisions of Konoha's power that be. You must have (at least) two sides to have a civil war, and if they were so concerned about its inevitability then maybe they should have thought about it sooner and if push comes to shove they could just step down. But from the look of it staying in power and keeping the Uchiha in their place was more important which make them just as guilty in the best of case.
But then this chapter just told me that had Itachi involved 5-7 years old Sasuke it all could have been avoided so yeah my mind is blown and they were pretty much all a bunch of incompetent intellectually deficient rejects.
@Ero-Sennin, there is a lack of Uchiha because they are virtually extinct whereas there is no Senju because.... Well that's the question isn't it? We don't know and that doesn't make sense.

NSCA Winter Forecast Projects Modest Growth for Construction Industry
All signs show that the nation's construction sector continues to experience modest growth and improvement in new construction, renovations, repairs and retrofits, according to the latest installment of the National Systems Contractors Association's (NSCA) Electronic Systems Outlook report.
January 8, 2014
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — All signs show that the nation's construction sector continues to experience modest growth and improvement in new construction, renovations, repairs and retrofits, according to the latest installment of the National Systems Contractors Association's (NSCA) Electronic Systems Outlook report.
The bi-annual forecast provides updated indicators of new business opportunities by tracking new construction starts and renovations in the commercial buildings sector. It also tracks residential construction due to its impact on the new construction of schools, retail facilities, houses of worship, and lodging.
The 2013 winter edition provides a revised look at construction data by markets and systems. Compared to 2012, total commercial construction put in place for 2013 will finish at $352.5 billion, which is down 0.5% from 2012 (and lower than originally predicted). The 2013 summer edition of the Electronic Systems Outlook originally forecasted total commercial construction put in place at $913 billion; the new data in the 2013 winter edition demonstrates why it's crucial to keep current with industry forecasting and benchmarking data, according to NSCA.
There are a few economic concerns covered in the report that touch all market sectors. The first is the continued decline in public construction and expectations of more as sequestration continues. Second, lenders are still tight with their lending criteria. Consumers are being cautious about increasing their debt load, including their share of public debt with new bond issues for local municipalities.
Overall, electronic systems are increasing in total volume, but show a slight reduction from 2012. The forecast indicates that approximately $19.29 billion were spent in 2013 on electronic systems, down very slightly from the $19.31 billion spent in 2012. The original 2013 forecast expected spending closer to $20.3 billion
"For years, we've been following commercial construction reports," says NSCA Executive Director Chuck Wilson. "We found that the electronic systems industry correlates with these trends. We expect 2014 construction put in place to total near $977 million."
Systems integrators can use this new outlook report to benchmark their own sales numbers and prepare business valuations. Growth indicators can be used to determine incentive programs, reveal new markets with potential, and appropriately distribute resources.
The NSCA Electronic Systems Outlook is free for members. For non-members, it can be purchased for $349. Nonmembers can also join NSCA for $595 and receive this report as part of their membership package. For more information, visit nsca.org or call (800) 446-6721.

Napi2003 wrote:Hello and thanks for the instructions.
One point that keeps popping everywhere and I assume has the failure rate at installing the NVIDIA propietary drivers is the following:
There are no clear / working instructions on how to get rid or even disable the odious "Nouveau" drivers that are deeply rooted on Nadia's (Mint 14.1) distro. Period.
If you can't disable said drivers, all the following steps are totally moot.
1. You can attempt at STOPping the service, and everytime you reboot the system, it will load the GUI, waiting to be "disabled" again and again.
Code: Select all
sudo service mdm stop
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
sudo /etc/init.d/mdm stop
2. Not even an apt-get -remove --PURGE command will do the trick. It will always reinstall and reload each time you reboot the OS.
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get remove --purge nouveau*
3. the NVIDIA installer won't acknowledge your override command that stops checking for nouveau drivers (--no-nouveau-check, --disable-nouveau)
Code: Select all
sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-310.32.run --disable-nouveau
sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-310.32.run --no-nouveau-check
4. The NVIDIA driver installer adds the "nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf" in /etc/modprobe.d with these lines:
Code: Select all
# generated by nvidia-installer
blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0
Guess what? That doesn't work either. Something as stubborn as this driver should legally be called a virus: It does no good and also refuses to move out.
What is needed is definitive instructions on how oliberate the oudious Nouevau drivers.
The NVIDIA installer acknowledges that it previously added some "trick file" to unload the drivers, but at this point it directs you to read some non-existent (or very well hidden) "README" file or consult your "distro manual" so you can wrestle it yourself at some machine code level.
This thing is starting to feel as hopeless and a total waste of time as ATI equally half-baked propietary drivers. The message is clear: Go back to Windows and forget this nightmare.
Anybody, please help. Thank you.
Napi2003 I completely agree! I have tried pretty much all thinkable tutorials on this, and still couldn't get the driver to work. Linux mint was the first distro that actually made me say "hey linux CAN actually be quite nice", but the sheer horror of countless OS reinstalls, following countless guides - where super-user linux know-how is needed to actually follow the guides - and to no avail makes me frustrated beyond comprehension. I just want to install a freaking display-driver without having to follow long complicated guides including rebooting several time, shifting to the textbased terminal, blacklisting stuff, editing config files, only to find out it didn't work.

The A-League match between the Wellington Phoenix and Newcastle Jets scheduled for March 23 at Westpac Stadium has been moved forward to Wednesday, February 27, at the same venue due to clashes with Fifa World Cup Oceania qualifiers.
The All Whites host New Caledonia and then travel to the Solomon Islands for the qualifiers on March 22 and 26 respectively, which has prompted the move by Football Federation Australia.
The venues for the qualifying matches have yet to be confirmed.
The Phoenix, already struggling this season, would have been severely disadvantaged if forced to play the Jets on the original date, as up to 10 of the club's players are expected to be available for All Whites' selection.

Only a few of the team which won the 2008 Rugby League World Cup are likely to defend it, writes Michael Burgess
By the time next year's World Cup rolls around it will be five years since the last event but almost a generation in terms of talent. The team that takes the field next year should look considerably different to 2008, with more than half of the starting side in Brisbane unlikely to be present.
Last night there were only six players in the starting line-up who were part of the squad in 2008 (Sam Perrett, Simon Mannering, Benji Marshall, Adam Blair, Issac Luke and Greg Eastwood). Of the starting 13 in that memorable 34-20 win, Nathan Cayless and Nathan Fien have retired, while David Fa'alogo and Bronson Harrison have slipped out of favour. Thomas Leuluai may return to the fold with his move to the NRL but it is hard to see veterans like Lance Hohaia and Jerome Ropati coming back into contention with the number of young guns on the horizon.
In some ways it is the nature of the sport. Manu Vatuvei is currently the only link to the 2005 Tri-Nations side, which memorably beat Australia 24-0 in Leeds.
There were some veterans in that team but it wasn't a particularly old squad - yet by late 2010, another five-year period, all aside from Vatuvei were gone.
It means that fresh blood is likely (and necessary) but Kearney has riches at his disposal, especially when you consider the players not selected or unavailable through injury for last night's match. The selectors have perhaps the widest choice in the modern history of Kiwi World Cup campaigns, particularly in the forwards.
Backs remain the the Achilles heel. In the last five years, the Kiwis have rarely fielded a full-strength backline, with injuries taking out key players.
It would be a bonus for Kearney to finally be able to field a pair of specialist centres in a major match. Simon Mannering was diverted from the pack for both the 2008 World Cup final and the 2010 Four Nations final while Kieran Foran was used out wide in the 2009 Four Nations tournament. Kearney will hope that men like Shaun Kenny-Dowall and Steve Matai can avoid injury while Konrad Hurrell may be a wildcard option.
One of the most interesting scenarios that will play out over the next 12 months is in the halves. For all their achievements at club level, Benji Marshall and Kieran Foran have yet to sparkle together in the Kiwis jersey. Individually, Marshall has struggled to bring his NRL form to the international arena in the past two years and, before last night, Foran had yet to taste victory against the Kangaroos.
Given their complementary skills, they should work as a duo but haven't so far. Partly because they rarely play together and possibly because they are both natural five-eighths. Certainly neither of them play in a traditional Kiwi halfback role, as seen with Clayton Friend, Gary Freeman or Stacey Jones.
In that mould there is Shaun Johnson, who could be one of the most talented players of his generation. In April this year there was no way to leave him out and he responded by scoring an 80m try and overshadowing Marshall in the Anzac test. However, such was his form slump in the back half of this season that he was lucky to make Kearney's squad this time and was always unlikely to be part of last night's team. If he rediscovers his magic in 2013 it will create crucial competition in the Kiwi scrumbase options and bring out the best in Marshall and Foran.
Another option which Kearney may employ is to have all three on the field at the same time, especially in the final stages. The strategy of using the little men to find holes in the Australian defence worked to great effect in the last quarter of the 2010 Four Nations Final, when Lance Hohaia, Nathan Fien, Isaac Luke and Marshall were all on the field simultaneously.
Foran could also be employed as a temporary dummy half when Issac Luke is spelled and all three halves (along with Leuluai) will get a chance to impress during the compressed group phase, where the Kiwis play three tests in 12 days.
Kearney also has youth on his side. The team that ran out last night featured five 22-year olds (Foran, Gerard Beale, Elijah Taylor, Dean Whare and Sam Kasiano) and an average age of 24.2. In contrast, the Australian team had an average age of 27.1, while their famed spine of Melbourne big three and Jonathan Thurston averaged 28.75. By next year Tim Sheen's team will have a sextet of players over the age of 30 (Thurston, Cameron Smith, Billy Slater, Cooper Cronk, Paul Gallen and David Shillington).
World Cup preparations will swing into full gear over the next month. NZRL high performance manager Tony Kemp heads off to England next week for meetings with the Rugby Football League, as well as accommodation and training field arrangements.
Aside from the Anzac test ( played in Canberra next year), the NZRL is in talks with their Australian counterparts about an additional test in October before both teams fly out. There are also plans for the Kiwis to play a New Zealand Residents team or one of the Pacific Nations, as an additional warm-up match before they depart for the month-long tournament in Britain and France.
According to Kemp, plans are also well under way to hold a training camp in Australia early next year for the wider squad, with up to 40 Kiwi players expected to attend. It will be modelled on the NSW Origin camps that Ricky Stuart ran for prospective players earlier this year and is planned to be held in January in New South Wales.
"The World Cup is a massive focus," said Kiwis forward Adam Blair. "We have been building for a while and you can see the different players they have brought in. We are all working towards a single goal - to retain that World Cup."
"I've deleted all those memories," joked Jonathan Thurston when asked about the 2008 World Cup final. "No, seriously, it hurt a lot at the time and we will need to make amends. It will be the last opportunity at a World Cup for quite a few of us in the Australian team and we are well aware of that."

Jesse Ryder: Police make arrest
Police are interviewing a second man they believe was involved in an attack on cricketer Jesse Ryder in Christchurch early yesterday. In a press conference this afternoon, it was revealed that Ryder gave a 'thumbs up' to his family and manager this morning, but the full impact of his head injuries will not be known until he is out of his induced coma. The 37-year-old man being questioned was related to a 20-year-old man already arrested over the incident. Police said they had reviewed CCTV footage of the incident outside a bar in Merivale. The people involved in the two attacks on Ryder were the part of the same group, police said.

However, if you want something that's maybe in the middle of those two, look at Tom Clancy's The Division.
Is that coming out at launch? It's on my radar big time, but I thought it was coming out next year. I think this may be my most anticipated game along with Destiny. Ah hell, there are alot of games I'm looking forward to.
I'll be grabbing both BF3 and Watch Dogs. Might throw in KZ: SF to get an exclusive (want something that is made just for the PS4).
PS+ will handle my racing needs with Drive Club. I'll download Warframe also since it's F2P from what I understand. Probably also grab Diablo 3.
Too many games I want. I've actually held off on some Vita titles I wanted, because of preordering the PS4. PS+ has given me a backlog on it.

To be honest... GTA5 looks way better then Watch Dogs, & even looks a little simular to that of Battlefield...
But after checking out BF3, that Game looked amazing... However, I don't believe you need both BF3 & BF4,
yes, BF4 is a huge step forward with it's Levolution, but the only real New Feature is the Submarines...
Other wise it's still pretty much BF3... So unless you want to Blow up Buildings, i'd stick to BF3...
So I guess what it really comes down to is...
Are you more of a "Free Roaming RPG Player" or an "Online First Person Shooting Elite Player"?
Which Genre do you feel more Confortable with, & Play more of?
I think thats the Bundle you should Choose...
Either way, Watch Dogs looks amazing, & the Levolution in BF4 is also Amazing... =D
Playstation 4
Too much Networking, & Socializing, but yet not enough Gaming... ~_~
Not My Style!!!

Re: Watch_Dogs or Battlefield 4 for the PS4
I'm getting both BF4 and Watchdogs, along with NFS Rivals.
Re: Watch_Dogs or Battlefield 4 for the PS4
Both will be great games but I'd get Battlefield 4 first if I had to. BF4 will get you more for your money.

Re: Watch_Dogs or Battlefield 4 for the PS4[ Edited ]
This is such an easy no brainer.
The only people who buy Battlefield are the anti CoD crowd who wouldn't know a quality FPS if it punched them in the face. CoD isn't even great but compared to Boringfield it's epic.
They will both be out, ditch that silly game if you need a FPS. Killzone and CoD are out with the console, both are vastly superior in almost every conceivable way.
Watch Dogs will more than likely be better than all 3 of them as a game, It's not an FPS though.
Bottom line is..
If you own the first Medal of Honor reboot, you own all the Battlefield games. Only differences are. Vehiciles and Destruction.. Everything else is pinpoint accurate to being the same old.

Playing cards vary from country to country, as each country has its own version of playing cards, its own traditions and its own card game history. Spanish may be one of the interesting and historically significant playing cards.
Spanish playing cards are called "Barajas" or "Baraja Espanola" in Spain. The decks usually have four suits, like a regular set of playing cards, but usually only consist of 40 cards. The 40 card deck is usually made up of 4 1's, 2's, 3's, 4's, 5's, 6's, 7's, 10's, 11's, and 12's. The 8's and 9's are almost never used. The four suits of the typical Baraja Espanola are Clubs, Gold (as in gold coins), Cups, and Swords. Jokers are used occasionally.
Spanish playing cards first gained importance in the 15th century. The Baraja tradition was significantly influenced by Moorish playing cards, which were being imported as the Moors gained ground in Spain during that the time. Spanish playing cards were also heavily influenced by the Latin deck and Italian playing cards, and all three sets have become strongly related with Tarot cards and are often used for fortune telling. And some associate Barajas with occult practices in Latin America, the Spanish playing cards are more often used for card games and gambling in Spain.

BlogAn interview with Felipe Skroski: Designing SilverStripe 3, UI development and the future of content management
4 March 2011 | |Tweet
This year looks like it's going to be an important milestone for SilverStripe. For not only does it mark the 10th anniversary of the company that brought us the CMS, SilverStripe Limited, but it's also the year in which work has begun on the first major release of the system since it's launch in 2007. SilverStripe 3.0 is still very early in its development but it's already looking very promising, potentially offering huge improvements such as versioned assets, a reworked templating system and better separation between the CMS and the underlying framework Sapphire among other things. However probably the most exciting improvement will be a completely new HTML5/jQueryUI admin interface.
The man in charge of designing the new UI is Felipe Skroski, creative director at SilverStripe Limited. With nearly 15 years of experience designing, marketing and project managing for the web, Felipe is well placed to lead the process, so I caught up with him to talk about SilverStripe 3, UI design and the future of content management.Continue reading...

Yesterday we learned from US Weekly magazine that lovebirds Drew Barrymore and Will Kopelman got themselves engaged to be married and today, courtesy of People magazine, we get to see the couple's official engagement photo. As you can see in the photo below, Drew and Will happily posed together in such a way that they are able to show off their happiness and love … oh, and Drew's phat new engagement bling. Check out the happily engaged couple below.
It's official – Drew Barrymore is a bride-to-be. With news that she's set to wed Will Kopelman breaking earlier Thursday, the star's rep confirms the news to PEOPLE and shares a sun-soaked engagement photo of the pair. At center stage? Barrymore's wide smile and that sparkler – a radiant-cut diamond, just under 4 carats, set on a diamond-covered band – designed by Graff and given to her over the holidays by her art consultant beau in Sun Valley, Idaho. Barrymore, 36, has been linked to Kopelman since February 2011.
I mean … will you LOOK at the smiles on their faces? OMG … they look so happy and in love. You could tell immediately that Drew was totally enamored of Will from the first time they were spotted together, she could barely keep her hands off him. I have a good feeling that marriage #3 will be the charm for Drew ;) Let's send the happy couple all our love and congrats today now that it has been OFFICIALLY confirmed that the pair are gettin' hitched! Woot!!

It has been a long time since I used telescoping and inner covers. But, aren't there two sides to an inner cover? One side deeper than the other?
My understanding on why Inner Covers are used and how they are used are for a small number of reasons.
1. It makes getting the cover off easier since the bees will usually only glue down the Inner Cover around the edges. Usually.
2. To maintain bee space between the top bars and the lid, when the shallow side is down.
3. to provide more room above the top bars when the deep side is down, so, during the winter, the cluster can have more than bee space above the top bars.
As far as Small Hive Beetle are concerned, I don't know what kind of cover would have much effect on them other than maybe an opaque/see thru cover. SHBs don't like light.
Many of my migratory covers have a feeder hole in them. I use a piece of canvas as a sort of inner cover. That's where I often observe SHB. Under the canvas when I rip it off quickly. I don't know if that promotes their existnce or not. I don't have much of a problem w/ them when my bees are in NY. Usually only seeing them while my bees are in SC. But not much of a problem there either.

Residents of the North Country will have more access to bluegrass music than ever thanks to a donor to the SUNY Plattsburgh College Foundation.
The donor, a North Country bluegrass fan who wishes to remain anonymous, has given funds to establish Bluegrass for the Next Generation. His goal is to promote the genre at the college and in the community.
|Photo: Scholarship winners Brian Smith and Abigail Curran are heading up bluegrass efforts at the college's WARP radio station.
The first phase of the project began Tuesday, Feb. 21, when SUNY Plattsburgh's WARP radio station started broadcasting an hour of bluegrass three times a week. The program runs from noon to 1 p.m. every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday throughout the semester, except for March 13-15, when the students are on spring break.
Not to be confused with the college's independent, student-run WQKE radio station, WARP is also run by students but through their audio production classes. It airs on campus Channel 10 or Charter Cable Channel 17 for 10 weeks every semester. In the near future, music will also be streamed live over the WARP website.
As part of the donation to the college, two of the students working on the radio project — Abigail Curran and Brian Smith — have received scholarships, which will help support them as they research new releases in the genre and harvest music from the donor's gift of 70 bluegrass albums.
"I've had a lot of students who, when they heard about this project, wanted to be involved," said Tim Clukey, the associate professor of communication who oversees student efforts at WARP.
The second phase of the project will take place Friday, March 23, when SUNY Plattsburgh alumni Eric Gibson '96 and Leigh Gibson '94 '96 of the award-winning Gibson Brothers return to their alma mater for a benefit concert. The International Bluegrass Music Association honored the duo with its Album of the Year and Vocal Group of the Year awards in October.
All funds raised by the show will support Bluegrass for the Next Generation, helping to finance future scholarships, concerts, courses and visiting artists.
For the third phase of the project, the donor plans to give bluegrass instruments to several local school districts this summer. The goal is to foster the learning and performing of bluegrass music at the middle and high school level beginning this fall.
Individuals wishing to donate to this project or to SUNY Plattsburgh in general may contact Faith Long at (518) 564-3615 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Former Springs Officer Pleads Not Guilty
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - A former Colorado Springs Police officer pleaded not guilty on Tuesday in the child sex abuse charges against him.
A motion was filed to remove the prosecutor from the case over recorded jail house phone calls. The judge ruled prosecutors may stay on the case.
A trial is set for March.
Joshua Carrier faces 196 counts related to child sex abuse and child pornography against 21 victims.
The victims were boys who were members of the wrestling team at Horace Mann Middle School where Carrier volunteered as an assistant coach. Prosecutor Amy Fitch said in September that additional victims have been identified from a video, and more charges will be filed.
Carrier, who was fired from the police department after his arrest earlier this year, was a resource officer assigned to the school. He also claimed to be an emergency medical technician, but testimony in September from a police detective revealed that Carrier was not a licensed EMT.
During witness cross-examinations, defense attorney Christopher Decker asked how his client could be guilty when most of the alleged victims and their parents did not bring accusations against Carrier until learning of his arrest. Prosecutors said the alleged crimes happened during the 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 school years.

A BED tax should be considered to allow tourism centres to pay for infrastructure and services straining under the weight of a massive influx of holiday visitors, the Local Government Minister, Don Page, has said.
The issue came to a head after a surge in summer revellers at Byron Bay, on the state's north coast, sparked a furious debate among residents about how well its roads and amenities coped.
Mr Page, one of about 9000 residents of Byron Bay, said he was astounded at the amount of rubbish in the town, including in residential areas, on New Year's Day.
About 1.5 million visitors descend on the town each year. "I've never seen so many people in town," he said.
"I went for a walk on New Year's Day morning and I was staggered by the amount of rubbish all over the place. If there were bins, they were overflowing."
On ABC radio yesterday, Mr Page said a bed tax was one answer. "The reality is that the infrastructure can't cope and the question is: 'What do we do about it?' A bed tax is definitely an option."
He later admitted to Fairfax Media that such a levy went against his government's policy but maintained that laws controlling councils - now under review - should be amended to allow local authorities such as Byron Shire to tax businesses specifically to improve roads, parking, public toilets, parks, boardwalks and rubbish collection services.
Any changes to allow a special tax could be used in other tourism hot spots, such as Coffs Harbour and along parts of the central coast, he said.
"Under the Local Government Act, it's difficult for a council to impose a tourism levy because they have to be able to show a direct benefit that's delivered to the person paying the levy," Mr Page said. But legislation could be altered so councils had only to prove an indirect benefit, he said.
Proposals for a bed tax, which have long been controversial - and rejected - would meet staunch opposition from the accommodation industry, in Byron Bay and more widely.
Paul Waters, the president of Byron United, the chamber of commerce, said: "You wouldn't raise nearly enough funds."
The Accommodation Association of Australia, which represents businesses from bed and breakfasts to hotel chains, said a bed tax would lead to job losses and have a significant impact on domestic tourism.
"Domestic tourism just couldn't afford to have this sort of tax at the moment," said the chief executive, Richard Munro.

Saw the entire game & let me tell you, Josh Freeman is an aweful QB! Just like last week vs us, the only reason they even scored a TD in this game is due to Romo throwing a pick deep in Dallas territory, then Dallas D comitted 4 penalies to put the Bucs at the 1yd line where Freeman tossed a TD to his TE.
From then it was an Int followed by 8 straight punts! The Buc D played lights out & layed some crunching hits/sacks on Romo. All in all, a very unimpressive win by Dallas & if they play like this vs the Bears next Monday night, they will get beat worse than the Sehawks beat em!

Convincing upper management
We have a problem here at the office. This relatively big organization (around 3000 people) doesn't have even one person dedicated to security! Since they think they haven't got hacked yet, upper management are basicaly saying: "why should we invest in security?".
A recent pentest showed that an attacker could get assess to EVERY SINGLE PC and servers! But that didn't help them change their mind. They change the anti-virus last year and found hundreds of malware, backdoors and viruses, but they don't want a full time person to look after their infrastrusture...
So what you we do?
1) Scared them by doing scary demos?
2) Show them what other similar places are doing?
We are running out of ideas...

At the event, students, faculty and staff will sit at tables of eight to share views on what it means to be American. Suggested topics are language, politics, religion and identity.
"When people have the opportunity to dialogue, they become more open-minded, empathetic and concerned," said Sara DeTurk, GICA faculty adviser. "It is a really good way to educate ourselves on social issues."
GICA is a UTSA registered student organization including students, faculty and staff committed to intercultural awareness and discussion of important international issues.

Re: Schweinshaxe - Pork Knuckle Recipe
I fell in love with schweinshaxe/eisbein on holiday in Germany but never saw them in the uk until local butcher started selling them recently... For �1.59! So I had to find a recipe, and alloraandiamo's turned out superbly. Crackling wasn't very crackly but I think I used too much beer in the glaze.
Three well-stuffed people say "molte grazie"!

Parts of the U.S. government shut down for 16 days in October because Congress could not reach a budget deal. As the shutdown dragged on, U.S. Senator Susan Collins of Maine grew more and more frustrated. Collins, a Republican, saw no real progress being made to reopen the government. Republicans and Democrats, unable to agree on how to move forward, blamed each other instead of offering any real solutions. Finally, Collins went to the floor of the Senate and delivered her own plan. "I ask my Democratic and Republican colleagues to come together," she said on October 8. "We can do it. We can legislate responsibly and in good faith."
Collins quickly found support from other women Senators, starting with fellow Republicans Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire. Democrats Barbara Mikulski of Maryland, Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire, and Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota also voiced their desire to help end the crisis.
Collins then formed a group of 14 Senators—men and women from each party. They discussed her plan and negotiated changes to it. Each side made compromises. Much of Collins's plan served as the foundation of a final version created by the Senate leadership. When the shutdown ended, much of the credit went to Collins.
"Senator Collins really led the effort," said Democratic Senator Mark Pryor of Arkansas, who was part of the group.
Collins was born on December 7, 1952, in Caribou, Maine. After graduating from St. Lawrence University, she became a staff assistant for U.S. Senator William Cohen of Maine. Later, she served in the cabinet of the state's governor, John McKernan. In 1994, she ran for governor herself. She did not win that race, but in 1996, she was elected to the U.S. Senate. She was reelected in 2002 and again in 2008.
For her demonstration of leadership and her promotion of teamwork and cooperation to end a national crisis, Senator Susan Collins is a nominee for TFK's 2013 Person of the Year.

What is leuprolide (Lupron Depot 3.75 mg)?
Leuprolide is a man-made form of a hormone that regulates many processes in the body. Leuprolide overstimulates the body's own production of certain hormones, which causes that production to shut down temporarily. Leuprolide reduces the amount of testosterone in men or estrogen in women.
Leuprolide is used in men to treat the symptoms of prostate cancer. Leuprolide treats only the symptoms of prostate cancer and does not treat the cancer itself. Use any other medications your doctor has prescribed to best treat your condition.
Leuprolide is used in women to treat symptoms of endometriosis (overgrowth of uterine lining outside of the uterus) or uterine fibroids.
Leuprolide is also used to treat precocious (early-onset) puberty in both male and female children.
Leuprolide may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
What are the possible side effects of leuprolide (Lupron Depot 3.75 mg)?

What is the most important information I should know about leuprolide (Lupron Depot 3.75 mg)?
Leuprolide can harm an unborn baby or cause birth defects. Do not use if you are pregnant.
You should not breast-feed while you are using leuprolide.
You should not use this medication if you are allergic to leuprolide or similar medications such as buserelin (Suprefact, Suprecor), goserelin (Zoladex), histrelin (Supprelin, Vantas), or nafarelin (Synarel).
You should not use leuprolide if you have abnormal vaginal bleeding that has not been diagnosed by a doctor.
Before using leuprolide, tell your doctor if you have epilepsy, asthma, migraines, heart or kidney disease, a history of depression, osteoporosis, bone cancer affecting your spine, blood in your urine, or if you are unable to urinate.
Tell your doctor if you have a personal or family history of osteoporosis, or if you have any risk factors for bone loss such as smoking, alcohol use, or taking steroid or seizure medications long term. Long-term use of this medication may decrease bone density, possibly leading to osteoporosis.
Certain brands or strengths of leuprolide are used to treat only men and should not be used in women or children. Always check your medication to make sure you have received the correct brand and strength prescribed by your doctor.

End of robbing spree relieves Puebloans
PUEBLO, Colo. - There's a sense of calm among business owners in Pueblo after a suspected serial robber is locked up. Detectives say they have linked 25-year-old Alfred Montano to 11 armed robberies in Pueblo.
In a 19-page affidavit, more information is being released about Montano and the victims he's accused of robbing at gunpoint, including Elaine Mascarenas.
"He left and told me don't come by the door cause I might shoot you," recalled Mascarenas, assistant manager of Smoker Friendly.
That was the night of Jan. 2. Mascarenas was working at Smoker Friendly on south Pueblo Boulevard when a gunman came into the store, demanding money. It took police more than two weeks after this robbery to arrest a suspect.
"I'm really happy that they caught him," said Mascarenas. "I just felt like a big ball came out of my chest."
Surveillance video shows what investigators believe is Montano and his girlfriend walking into the store about 30 minutes before they say Montano came back to rob it.
"We're aware of one video where they were in the store prior to the robbery. Continually, the detectives are looking at it because they're gonna have to review some tapes on most of them now to see if they were in the stores before those robberies or after," said Sgt. Eric Gonzales, with the Pueblo Police Department.
Mascarenas began working at the store just four months ago. Now that police have a suspect behind bars, she says she's not scared, just more alert.
"God answered my prayers. I thank him every day for me still being here cause I have kids and they still need me," Mascarenas said.
Police say Montano stole about $2,000 during those 11 robberies. He's in jail on a $1 million bond.
Police are still investigating to find out if other people are involved in the robberies. Those who have information are asked to call police at 542-STOP.

Man recovering from wreck that killed both parents
ONSLOW COUNTY - A man who survived an Onslow County wreck that killed both of his parents is showing improvement.
According to hospital officials, 40-year-old Michael Theodorakis was listed in good condition at New Hanover Regional Medical Center as of Friday morning.
Troopers said Michael was seriously injured in Thursday's wreck that killed both of his parents: 70-year-old George Theodorakis and 71-year-old Betty Theodorakis. The accident happened just before noon Thursday at Highway 17 and Murrill Hill Road, near the Harley-Davidson dealership southwest of Jacksonville.
Investigators said George Theodorakis was driving too fast and lost control, over-corrected, crashed into the median, and hit a tree. No other vehicle was involved.
Betty Theodorakis was sitting in the front passenger seat when she and her husband were killed, troopers said. Their son was in the backseat.
Troopers said they will await the medical examiner's report to see if a medical condition may have contributed to the crash
The victims lived at Lake Waccamaw in Columbus County, about 34 miles west of Wilmington. According to the Roanoke-Chowan News-Herald, the deceased couple had already lost a son in June 2011.

With ever increasing regulatory pressure to comply with Federal mandates for medical, legal, e-mail, financial and government data, storage requirements are exploding. Keeping all this data available on disk could be a very expensive solution in terms of both hardware purchases and the cost of power, cooling and physical space. Storing the data on disk may not be necessary because a very large percentage of "inactive" data can be stored in a more cost-effective medium, such as tape.
The IBM TS3500 Tape Library can automate tape management for large workloads to take full advantage of tape capabilities in data mobility, cost, scalability, "green" energy efficiencies, media life and protection from network attacks.
A TS3500 Tape Library with High Density frames can store over 30 petabytes (PB) of uncompressed data or 60 PB at 2:1 compression, while a large disk system would store just 2 PB. This is at least 15 times more raw capacity than a disk system and even more usable capacity.

But we are yet to resign Bennett, and now that we restructured webster and T2, Rhodes may be out the picture, so the only picks i could see would be Ogletree, eiffert, richardson, Okafor. I was really high on Eiffert, i think he's a good blocker and excellent value, that can be an elite TE at the next level, with his point catching, Eli and Eiffert would make a good tandem for years to come.

Sponsored Tingles: Six Degree© Week 1
Everyone is linked in Hollywood. "A" was married to "B" who dated "C" who worked with "D"…and so on. If you think too hard about it, it's kinda like a petrie dish. And often it doesn't take too many steps to link one celeb to another. So we've teamed up with Degree Women antiperspirant to bring you another amazing opportunity to win some HUGE prizes and test your Smutty Skills at the same time. We present the Six 'Degree©' of Separation Contest.
What can you win? A trip valued at up to $5000 and secondary prizes full of exciting product. Links and full details are below but it's well worth your effort.
So get right into it and start with our first set of celebs…
You know how this works, right? Six steps. Super easy. You can put some flair into it if you want to. I mean, the direct route works, sure, but taking me down a side route is fun too. For those of you unfamiliar, here's an example:
Kim Kardashian to Kate Middleton:
Kim Kardashian (1) used to be BFFs with Ebola Paris Hilton (2) who used to hang out with Michael Jackson (3) and he pretended to date Madonna (4) for about five minutes and she was married to Guy Ritchie (5) who is a distant relative of Princess Catherine (6).
In other words, we can blame Madonna, or maybe Guy Ritchie for connecting a Princess with that uselessness that is Kim Kardashian.
Now it's your turn:
Give me the Six Degree© for:
Gwyneth Paltrow to Mario Lopez.
Visit the Six Degree© contest page fill out the ballot and use the freeform area to list your chain of celebs, starting and ending with the two provided above. Link them correctly using the clues given and earn your chance at the big prize. An additional clue will be provided in a "PS" of the column intro each Wednesday. Link the celebs correctly and qualify for the draw, which will be held at the end of the contest period (June 3, 2011). Full rules and details are available here. Good luck!

Chinese whiteware giant's takeover bid stalls as shareholders opt to 'wait and see'
The fact Haier has not updated the market on the size of its stake in Fisher & Paykel Appliances since making its takeover bid for the New Zealand firm suggests uptake of the offer has been low, an analyst says.
If the Chinese whiteware giant's shareholding in F&P Appliances had increased by 1 per cent or more it would be required to post a substantial security holder (SSH) notice on the NZX website.
Haier posted its last SSH notice on September 12, prior to the opening of the bid on September 26
The September 12 notice advised shareholders of its lock-in agreement with Australian fund manager Allan Gray, which has agreed to sell its 17.46 per cent shareholding into the offer.
The lock-in gives Haier a 37.46 per cent interest in F&P Appliances, including its own 20 per cent shareholding, which falls short of the offer's 50 per cent minimum acceptance condition.
"What [the lack of SSH notices] tells you is that people are watching and waiting to see how it pans out," said Mark Lister, head of private wealth research at Craigs Investment Partners.
F&P Appliances' shares were trading at $1.22 yesterday afternoon - above the $1.20 per share Haier is offering for all the shares in the New Zealand firm it does not already own.
"Why would you accept now at $1.20 when you can sell on market for $1.22?" said Lister.
Grant Samuel's independent report valued the New Zealand whiteware maker at between $1.28 per share and $1.57 per share, prompting F&P Appliances' board to advise its shareholders to reject Haier's offer.
Meanwhile, the Business Herald understands negotiations are taking place between representatives of Haier and institutional shareholders in F&P Appliances over the offer.
And a market source said F&P Appliances' independent directors were also in talks with the Chinese firm over increasing the offer price.
F&P Appliances chairman Keith Turner said yesterday that he could not comment on "what might be under negotiation" and a Haier spokesman denied any talks were taking place with institutions.
The offer closes on November 6, but Haier has only until Friday to tell F&P Appliances investors if it will make any changes to the offer unless it extends the offer period.

William RAPLEY, marriage.
Hello Tracy,
I believe you have the wrong spouse for William RAPLEY, born 1754, Shipley, Sussex, England.
According to parish records at West Sussex records office William RAPLEY married Hannah Coomber, 20 April 1783 in Shipley, Sussex. James RAPLEY (Williams brother) and James Frillary witnessed the marriage.
Shipley Parish baptism records suggest the couple had 6 children, Hannah, Charlotte, Lucy, Fanny, Richard and William. They were all baptised in Shipley with Hannah recorded as their mother and William RAPLEY as their father.

Hi Tracey,
I believe you have Patricia O'Brien buried in the wrong cemetery. If you look at the memorial number given above, you will see I have photographed her headstone in the Mathoura Lawn Cemetery, buried with Garry Maxwell O'Brien. It seems you also have her birthday off by about a year. You have the first memorial created and so many flowers! Please move the memorial to the correct cemetery as shown on the above memorial number and I will be happy to upload the photo. The "public" cemetery is really the Pioneer Cemetery which is down the adjacent road but is a completely different place. I will send you an email also as it does not seem you are very active on Find A Grave.

RE: we maybe related somehow .. not sure
Hi Tracey
Thank you for the lovely note, unfortunately we are not related (that I know of).
I transcribe cemeteries near me as pay back for all those who help me with my UK research.
Would you like me to add the additional 'relative' info to the info I have?

Are you tired of cooking breakfast, doing the yard work, and having your sexual urges satisfied? if so this is the thing for you! first take your best wood cutting axe (the bigger the better!) and stick it firmly in your wife's anus, then have her cut the wood with her anus. at the same time she will be cooking your pancakes, and because every good housewife is a multi-tasker she will also be gargling your man sausage. so enjoy!
