Agriculture - January 2010
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), in December and early January District growers received heavy rainfalls and cooler-than-normal temperatures. These conditions had an adverse impact on crops and production. Excessive rains reportedly damaged crops in most areas of the District, and wet soils were unable to support heavy machinery for harvesting and fieldwork. Areas of central Florida endured between 10 and 44 hours of below-freezing temperatures with some damage reported to vegetable, nursery, and citrus crops.
According to recent USDA estimates, poultry production in 2010 will be flat or up slightly from 2009, restrained by uncertainties in domestic and global markets. During 2009, the value of U.S. broiler exports fell slightly from 2008 levels. Poultry exports to the region's top market, Russia, were down 24 percent from 2008 because of a ban on U.S. poultry shipments based on Russia's new stringent inspection standards. Trade negotiators from both countries are meeting in late January to discuss potential solutions to this trade impasse. Fortunately, higher export sales to Cuba, Taiwan, Central America, and other countries have helped offset reduced sales to Russia.
According to the USDA, despite recent crop damage, the region's cotton crop for 2010 is estimated to be a bit higher than last year's thanks to higher yields per acre. Excessive rainfall across the region has reportedly damaged cotton crops in some areas of Mississippi and Tennessee. However, according to a University of Georgia economist, cotton acreage is likely to increase in 2010 because of improved market prices and business conditions at home and abroad.
Prices paid to farmers rose steadily during most of 2009, staying above 50 cents per pound during the second half of the year. USDA economists reported that demand for U.S cotton should increase because of expected higher mill usage in major textile-producing countries.
According to University of Florida economists, market conditions for the citrus industry were mixed at year end. In 2009, producers were challenged by diseases and more recently by below-freezing temperatures that are likely to reduce new estimates of citrus that are currently being evaluated. Pricewise, however, citrus growers have recently received above-average returns, according to contacts and data. Despite high volatility in prices reported in December, on a 12-month-average basis, growers' prices last year were more than 30 percent higher than comparable prices for 2008.

Oh Wise Ones---HELP !
The P239 (9mm) is more than I ever expected. I like it and it appreciates that. However, today was perplexing::::
After 150 rounds of 115gr.FMJ, I ran 60 rounds of 124gr.GDHP(Speer Gold Dot). Everything went well except for placement. The 115gr stuff goes where (close) I want, but the Gold Dot stuff goes low. Low is about 4"-6" at 21 feet. What am I doing to cause this shift in sighting/hitting ?
Next week will have a Crimson Trace and maybe I can figure out what I am doing, but until then------HELP!

Caleche drivers on the Corniche, Felucca and motor boat captains on the quayside, everyone willing and able to do business.
We went on a trip to one of the numerous Nubian villages in the area. The trip on the river was memorable in respect of when we were traveling in what was once the lower part of the first cataract at Elephantine Island, it is the sheer volume of water, passing between the rocks, it gave one a sense of the power of the river, over the eons it has carved and moulded the rocks into wonderful shapes. A favourite game by the local children is, when they see a boat approaching, they dive into the water like otters, swim up to and grab hold of the boat, not a bad way to hitch a lift, does anyone think that crocodile island in the area is named for some other reason? Wonder how many have close shaves during the tourist season?
In the village, we got up close and personal with some small crocodiles, Tarja went on a camel trek, as for myself, I think they are anti-social beasts, who seem to take me as a target for their spitting competitions, so I tend to give them a wide berth
We visited the Nubian village school, where we gave the children some pens, next time we will give pencils, as they would probably be more useful to the kiddies.
On the return journey, we went on the other side of Elephantine Island, it's easy to see why it came by its name, plenty of rocks that resemble elephants, although some of the effect is lost when they have build brick walls on top of some of them.
We chose to do the organized tour of the area, it was to become a very tiring day. we first of all visited the unfinished obelisk, now looking at this, many will say, It's only a chunk of stone, not very impressed at all. I urge you to look a little deeper, see the tool marks that have been left by the ancient workers, as you stand there in the heat of the day, try to imagine what the working conditions were, lying on your side or kneeling down, as you drink from your plastic bottle, did the workers have such amenities? Is the heat very intense right now, was it intense when the workers were in situ? Thats what makes this unimposing piece of stone impressive, not the fact that it could have been standing in Karnak or Luxor.
Queen Hathepshut, certainly had big ideas when she commissioned this obelisk, I pity the poor messenger that had to take her the news, that it was no use due to a crack, not a good day to be in Dodge City.
I was fortunate in that I broke away from the main party, a security guard took me up close and personal to see another unfinished, although a lot smaller, obelisk. Again it was brought home to me just how much technology has improved our lives and how much easier we have it these days, that small trip cost me 5 le in baksheesh, a small price to pay for that memory
Onwards to the Aswan High Dam, Nassers legacy to Egypt, it is an immense structure, in keeping with the other immense structures which abound in Egypt. One has to think, that the benefits to Egypt far outweigh the losses in historical sites, Egypt seems to have enough and to spare. It doesn't do to dwell on ancient history, when you must think of the needs of the present day inhabitants, ofcourse the Nubian's will disagree, but you cannot please everyone all of the time, if you try to, you end up pleasing no one at all.
Once again, time to board the bus, this time destination Philae Temple. At this point, we were almost at the overload point of temples, there is only so much you can take in. lets face it, you have to study hieroglyphs for many years to understand what they are really about, we were fortunate, that our Egyptian tour guide, Johanna, was only too willing to give one to one lessons on the different temples, he spoke very good English and being with a Finnish tour group, he didn't have a lot to do, so being me, I utilized him mercilessly. I wont go into too much detail about the various temples, suffice to say, the concept is breathtaking enough. one interesting point when visiting Philae, watch the motor boat captains, it all looks dead serious, you think they are trying to drive each other into the rocks, it is in fact just their way of livening up an otherwise boring trip for them. we didn't bother with doing the sound and light show at Philae, we had to be up VERY early next morning, Abu Simbel was beckoning.

The Exilim EX-Z19 is a low-cost compact camera from Casio. It is a mid-range model in the Exilim line-up, featuring a 9.1-megapixel 1/2.5-inch sensor, 3x zoom lens and 2.6-inch LCD monitor. Its specification it is fairly unspectacular, lacking the ultra-compact sleekness of the EX-Z85, or the wide-angle 4x zoom of new EX-150. However with a retail price of around £120 it will appeal to those looking for a basic, easy-to-use camera on a tight budget.
The Z19 has a rather plain aluminium body. Despite what it says on Casio's website it measures 92 x 55 x 25mm and weighs 127g excluding battery, which is about average for a current ultra-compact. Its overall design is virtually indistinguishable from any one of dozens of similar compacts from other manufacturers, such as the Pentax S-series, or the Fujifilm J-series. Like most of Casio's ultra-compacts it is available in a wide range of colours, including two shades of pink, black, the silver shown here and something that I can only describe as pee green. The overall build quality is quite good, but the body does creak a little when squeezed.
The external features are also a bit uninspiring. The 2.6-inch monitor has a relatively low resolution of 144k dots and has a disappointingly restricted angle of view. The controls are sensibly laid out, leaving enough room to grip the camera, and like most Casio cameras it does handle well, but the zoom control is a small rocker switch rather than the usual rotary bezel. The zoom action itself is stepped, with only five positions between wide and telephoto, which makes framing a bit hit-or-miss.

Truck crashes into house at 146th and Allisonville Rd.
Emergency crews responded to a pickup truck that crashed into a house on the southeast corner of Allisonville Road and 146th Street.
Officers at the scene say the truck was eastbound on 146th when it veered into the house, crashing through the wall of an unoccupied bedroom.
A woman was sleeping in the other end of the home, and was not hurt. She told officers that her grandson sleeps in the room that was hit when he visits on weekends.
The 57-year-old driver of the truck, Jerry Mooneyhan, told authorities he was eastbound on 146th Street shortly after 4:00 a.m. when he began to feel ill. He thinks he temporarily passed out.
His Ford F-150 left the south side of 146th Street and crashed into the side of the house. Mooneyhan was checked by medics at the scene, but suffered no injuries in the crash. Deputies drove him to work.
Investigators have no estimate on the damage to the home.
Eastbound 146th Street was closed for about 90 minutes, as was Allisonville Road.
Both are now open.

Understanding the Judgment tarot card in love tarot readings.
Often, when the Judgment tarot card appears in a tarot reading, you are required to take a good look at your past actions and behaviors. This is the time to take stock and carefully review your progress. When it comes to questions about love, the same principles apply. In a love tarot reading, the Judgment tarot card asks you to take a good look at your relationship and determine if it is living up to your expectations.
Traditionally, the Judgment card refers to the fact that an important part of the journey has been completed. In this respect, a transformation has occurred. There is a new level of maturity and awareness. With this new awareness comes a greater sense of responsibility. The Judgment tarot card proposes that one get accountable for their past actions and choices. The ultimate goal is to learn from one's experiences in order to achieve the world (the next and final card in the major arcana).
In love tarot readings, the Judgment card often calls for the evaluation of a relationship's status. Is the relationship working or not? Do you continue to grow closer as a couple or are you living separate live emotionally? This represents a crucial stage in any relationship. There needs to be honest and open communication. Both partners need to evaluate whether or not their needs are getting met and if they feel their relationship warrants more investment to bring it fruition. Relationships will either transform or fall apart. If a relationship does fall apart, the Judgment card can indicate that there are new beginnings in the near future. Chances are you won't be single for long.
On a personal level, both the single and partnered individual have the opportunity to look at how they relate and attach to romantic partners. When the Judgment tarot card appears in a love tarot reading, there is usually a need to re-examine your past and present relationships. It's important to identify what you want in a relationship. It's also equally important to assess the qualities you don't want in a relationship.

|April 8, 2006--As part of a three-day Iowa trip, former Senator John Edwards attended the campaign kick-off for Iowa House candidate Andrew Wenthe at the American Legion Hall in Oelwein. Wenthe, a sixth generation Iowan, works a family farm near Hawkeye. He served as a field organizer for Sen. Edwards's Iowa caucus campaign, then as a field organizer in Oklahoma, and finally as Elizabeth Edwards' trip director and scheduler for the final four weeks of the primary campaign. In the Fall of 2004 he was a field organizer for the Democratic Coordinated Campaign in Black Hawk County. In his remarks Wenthe noted that he had knocked on over 10,000 doors in northeast Iowa during the course of those campaigns. "Senator Edwards," Wenthe said in his prepared remarks, "You touched so many of these peoples' lives with your message of optimism and hope, and this message that touched so many Iowans is what has driven me to want to serve and represent these same hardworking folks."

Have any of you experienced a session of recreational skating that can best be described as a kind of "Roller Derby on ice?"
Several winters ago I frequently skated at a local rink and usually enjoyed their evening sessions. Sometimes, however, a large number of high school kids flooded the rink, and some of them, unfortunately, skated with little thought of safety and/or consideration for the other skaters. These kids, mostly
teenaged boys, played the "whip" at the corner of each end of the rink, raced in and out of people, cut into groups of other groups of people, ran into and knocked down people, etc. Two of them, while racing around the rink, slammed into me and knocked me down, hard, on my right hip. My hipbone swelled into an egg-sized black and blue bruise, and while there were no broken bones/fractures, it was pretty painful.
The rink did nothing to stop this type of dangerous behavior.
Frankly, I was pleased when the rink closed due to lack of business. Perhaps somebody else was knocked down and sued the rink.

Discussion Items
From the Community
- With a view of the upcoming 2010 NGS Family History Conference, what priorities should the community be working towards? (Posted in the Forums by Steve Cottrell)
- This is a good question. Fran and Kara recently met with Diane Loosle to discuss this subject. We had several ideas but narrowed it down to the following items:
- First Priority
- Homepage revision
- Help content revamp completed
- Easy path to get help for new users and contributors
- Highlight great content on the homepage that will draw in genealogists and keep their attention
- Portal page conversion complete (consistency of look and feel across the Wiki)
- Second Priority
- Community Center (this may be needed as part of bullet three above, but at the time we weren't sure)
- Finish project to move all FamilySearch past publication content to the Wiki with a page to help the user recognize the migration from the "old to the new."
- First Priority
- We would like to take a few minutes during this meeting and respond to Steve's question. Plus we would like to have your thoughts and ideas related to the items that Kara and Fran have already identified. We originally wanted to have all the Governance processes identified, documented, and with volunteers in place to work though any governance issues. We also wanted the Manual of Style finished and ready for new authors and editors to refer to as needed. A lot has already been accomplished by the members of this technology meeting for both the governance and the manual of style, but there is still a lot left to do and without volunteers to lead the projects, we are moving at a snails pace. There may be another set of items that needs to be addressed and we are looking forward to hearing your ideas! --Fran 19:50, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

A XOITHX^N TA la the ancient he«th«a itnM ofi^ 9«xoo*, tlMir« wdt once a great war with tba DaAM- Adatbero, Duke of Saxopy. who had goui|w(hj it, now in ihe hourofaarnMlcooflict, »1 t^ beful of his people. There flew ihe arrowa aod U>e j«veUm; there alaoced many ridiant bMw on both i^idea; and there «hone many gold «bieUl* tbromih the dark 6ght. But the Saxo^, al every ailaok, we-e repulsed,and wtte already eo far driven back, that the Blorining of a alMp bigbt gpuW deliver the army and the country, disper«® th« ei)e»ny and change a ruinous .»nd destructiv« ili^iit lult' t de cisive victory. forced his fiery charger before the squadron; vain be shouted through the fields the .sached wf»rds. "Freedom and Father land!" in Vnin atrenrned hi warm blood, and the blood of the foe, over his resplendent armour. The fioialorous muss gave way; and the enemy secure on the height^ lojoiml, in their decided victory. Again rushed Adnilwro on wUh a few gallant warriors; again the faint hearted fell behind; and again the enemy rejoired. Ms it yet time,' said AdallK)ro; and again he shouted, 'Forward! and il we concur, I vow to the gods, to set fire to the four comer.s of iny caslle, and it shall blaze forth on a bright funeral pile, in honoi of our victory and our deliverance.' Again was the attack renewed, hut again th( Saxions fled—and the enemy sent forth shouts of Then cricd Adalboro^lowPISWlIïÎfc Vhole army, *If we fetgrn victorious from thre charge ye gods, [ devote myself to you a .solemn sacrifice.!' Shuddering the warriors hastened after him but fortune was still agoinst them; the boldest (jjll—th« bravest fled. Then Adall»ero, in deep ailliction. rallied the scattering band, and all that remained of tho great nobles collected round him, and spoki thus:— 'Thou art our ruin, for thou hast coiin.seircd this war.' Adalbero replied, 'My ca.stlo and inysolf I give lo the gods for victory, and what can 1 more?' The sad multitude called only the more to him. 'Thou art our ruin; for thou hast counselled this war.' Then Adalbero tore open his bosom, and implored tho Mighty God of Thunder to pierce it wjth a thunder-bolt, or lo give the victory to his army. Bui there came no bolt from Heaven, and the squadron sfood timid, and followed not (he call. In boundless despair, Adalbero at last said 'There enjoins only that which is most dear to me. Wife and child 1 offer to ihte, thou God of armies, for .iclory. My beautiful blooming wife,—my only heart-loved child—they belong to the Great' Ruie'r ih Asgard; with my own hand will I sacrifice them to thee hut I implore thee, give nae the victory!' Scarcely were thc.se words uttered, when fearful thundcrings rolled over the field of battle, and clouds gathered round the cambattancs; and the Saxons with fearful crie.s, shouted as with one voice, ' Tl godsare with us!' With invincible couragu forward rushed hosts:—the height was carried by ihe stoFm of Adalbero, with sudden shudder, saw the enemy flying thro' the field. The conqueror returned home in triumph; and in all parts of delivered Saxony, came wives and chil-dien forth with outstretched arms greeting thetr husbands and fathers. But Adalbero what awaited him; and every smile of an aiTectionate wife, pierced, as with a poisoned dart his anguished heart. At last ihey came before his magnificent castle. IJe was not able to look up, as the beautiful Simlide met him at the gate, w ith her daughter in her hand, while the little one always leaped and cried Father! Father!! beloved Father!!!' Adalbero looked round on his |)eopIe, in order to strengthen himself; even there ho mot quivering eyelids and bitter tears; for among his warrior.«, many had heard his horrible vow. He dismissed ihem CO their families, feeling what b>Tppy men, he, the most unhappy, was sending to their comes; then rofJo into thecaslle and sending the domestics away, under various pretences, sprung from his horse, clo-ed the gates with thundering sound, securing them carefully, and pressed his beloved wife and child to his heart, shedding over thoni u torrent bf tears. 'What is the matter husband!" said the astonished Similde. 'Why do you weep, father stammered the Utile one. 'Wo will first prepare an ofleting to the Gods,' re|)lied Adulberoii; and iheii 1 shall relate every thing, to you. Come to me soon to (he hearth. '1 will kindle the flanoe, and fetch, in tha meantime, the iniplemeuta for sacrifice,' said the sweet Similde; and the little one cried out clapping her hands. 'I also will help, I also will be there,' ond skipped away with her mother. These words '1 also will help; I also will be there,' the hero repeated, as disolved, in grief, ho stood by the flaming pile, with his drawn ^word in his trembling hand. He lamented aloud over the joyful child, and the graceful obedient wife, who brou|jht the bowl and pitcher, perfuming pan and taper, used in sacrifices. Then it passed in his n.ind that the vow could not be valid, for such sorrow could not find a place in the heart of man. Hut the answer was given in dreadful peals of thunder down from the heaven. 1 know,' said he, sighing heavily, 'your thunder has assisted u»,and now your thunder calUoi) your devoted believer for tho performance of his vow.' Similde began to tremble as the frightful truth burst upon her, and with soft tears, she said—'Ah halt thou made a vow! Ah husband, 1 see no victim! Shall human blood-' Adalbero covered hia eyea with his hands, and sobbed «0 terribly that it echoed through the hall and the little one terrified, aunk together. Similde knew well such vows in aocirnt tinics. Sbe looked entreatingly to the Lord, and aaid— 'Keroove the child.' 'Botbl Both!!' I mustP then murmurred Adalbero ¡and Siopilde; with a violant eflbri, forcinp back her a ire, aaid lo Ih* Utile one, quick, child and bind ibia handkerohief oa tbina eyea; thy father haa brougiiia preeeot for tliee, and will not give it to thee. 'My father look« not aa if he would give mo, a preaent,** eighed the child. 'Tbou ehalt aee; thou «halt ace pretenlly,' aaul Similde hurriedly; aadaaahe placed the bandage over the ayes of the child, abo could no longer ren-traio her laan, but tbay fell no softly that the little ooa kàaw it oot. The tender mother aow tore the drapery from her snow white hoaom, and kneeUog before her aa-cTifiewr,'beckoned thai she mifjht bo the first vic- lingercr, 'else the poor child be «o terrified!^ Adalboro raisnd his drtaulful ateel'^'lhen ro^r^ the thunder and fla.xlied the linghlaiiig through lhi> building. Bpeeohlcss sank tho Ihree to theearib. As the evening breeze rushed through the br^ ki-n windows, the little ono rai!«ed her head fi^m wiiich trie band«ge had (iillen, hnd said—'.MotbjVr what present has my father hroeght lo meT The sweet voice awakened both ihe parent*.

'The Gods have spo'von cried the pardoped father; and with a gush of unutterable love the thre« delivered ones wept in each other's arnra. Fur distant over llie southern mountains, roared t'le ».emj esi, where m mv years afterwards St. Boniface conveited uiibelicrtff to the true faith. THE MORMONS. The St. Louis Gawtte of the 16th inst., in quoting from a correspondent, says that there are rumors •>fapprehended di.stui bances with the Mormons. They, as you know,occupy Caldwell county exclusively. It .seems that one of their number waa^^, ... t ie day of election, in Daviess county, and at thai-*' ^olls got embroiled in a diffirulty that ended in his tleath. It is said that some of the MornKiOa have been maltreoted hy their own body, and bavespreaa iheir complaints in'o neighbr^ring counties. It ¡1« said, also, that it ia difficult to collect debfp anJO% I hem; and .that olficers have bren j»ut iii diireM who have endeavored to make collection. It is aaid alto, that some persons, who have come in anwng them have been forced to sign obligations in regard to the purchase oflands, the nature of which,i^owever, if the attempt ever has been made, I have not learnt. —Whether all or any of these causes have led to the difficulties which lire apprehended, I cannot preiend to say. There is no doubl, at any rate, that some alarm and expectation of collisi<mpreTaila adjoining counties.—Joe Smith, it ia said, braga of his forces—setting them at something like ^ItOO able l)odiod men. I'liey |)olled only 263; but no doubt large additions have been made to their num-l)er within a year, who, ofcoursc, are not qualifi^ voters. Gne fact is ccriain, that Joe has taken him- ^ self a young girl'to^wife—and prorni8e^his|followers, that of his lineage, there shall be a son, who sliould be to them prophet, priest and king. Unluckily, however, the prist and king turned out to he Vi female. But I suppose tho faiihful will receive her as hypothenes and queen, and nursing noothor in the church. Tho Mormons are in expectation of fresh recruiti from the east—and i observe a statement in the . newsyppeis, ihat 500 are on their way to Ihe land ofCanaun, which they expect to ooci'py after turn-' ingout the heathen who now' cumber the ground I here. A NEW METHOD OF MAKING BOOTS AND SHOES. A man in New York has inventejJJaJnew way of manufacturing boots and shies, which, is thus par-lii'iilarly described: "Isf, The whole lower portion, or sole and ia-sole, of the boot or shoe, is made with but one seam, instead of two, as at present; thus increasing tho facility and durability of the manufacture. 2dly, I he boots and shoes are much more beautiful in appearance during their whole wearing, in conseqneneo of the upjwr leather being turned from under the foot,and inserted in a peculiar chann^ cut in the insole, which prevents the upper leather both from cracking and wrinkling, and thus inoraas-ing the value without enhancing the coat of tha article. ;idly. By dispensing w th the inseam, the boot or shoe is rendered "ar more easy to the foot, thus prevcniing corns and bunnions; and there being no welt requiring »scraps to fill up the hollow space between the .sole and insole, which is now occasioned by the welt, the part on which the foot reals does not become irregular and uneven, nor is the solo so soon thrown out of place, and unequally worn away." S'i'ATUE OF WASHINGTON. Four voars ago Congress ordered that a statue of Washington should be made, to be placed in the splendid rotunda of the Capitol Washington City. Tho work was commiiied to the hands of the ceíe-briied Sculj>lor, Mr. Greenough, who, since the deuth of Canova, stands first in bis prnfaaelnrt Mr. F. Cooper has recently received alaúarfrom Mr. (ircenough, giving the information that the siatuo is in rapid progress, and will soon ba finiah* ed. It must certainly prove a most splendid spaei-men of ihe sculpiaiy art. 'J'he bl«x'k of marbia from M hit h it is making.

How was that experience for you?
"It was pretty good. I enjoyed it. I was looking forward to it all week. I was ready to play."
How would you evaluate how your first game went?
"I could have done a lot better. I did some good things. We played as a team. I have to do a little bit more on the defensive end [and] on the offensive end, too. So I need to work on that in practice and get better at whatever I need to get better at."
What does it feel like when that first shot goes in?
"It's great. I was expecting it. It felt great coming out. I wanted it to go in and it went it."
How have the first couple of weeks of practice been for you in adjusting to the college game?
"It's been pretty good. The pace of the game has been a little faster than high school, so it's been an adjustment with that. With the coaches, too, you have to learn what they want you to do and move where they want you to be at."
Has the physicality of the game been an adjustment?
"It's been a big adjustment because in high school people weren't really my size. But now everybody is the same caliber and everybody plays hard."
Do you have to change your rebounding approach due to your size?
"I do what I've always done. Just try to box out the best that I can and out jump everybody that I can. I can jump up there and get it, so just go get it at the top of the peak and pull it down."
What's one thing the coaching staff has asked you to do that you haven't done in the past?
"Just make a quicker move in the post. Instead of dribbling around and trying to do an up-and-under, just make a very quick move and go straight to the basket."
If you don't make a quick move in college basketball, what happens?
"Either they take the ball or you get it blocked. One of the two."
Desmond Hubert said recently that you've become more consistent since the summer. How have you worked to improve in that area?
"Over the summer I was learning things and trying to get adjusted to it. Now that I've been adjusted and have been in here a little longer, I've been ready to play. Just be consistent and keep moving."
What's the transition from high school to college been like?

I would not have even considered deploying either and cant think of too many reasons a Wholesaler, Retailer, Dealership, similar would have ever needed the upgrades. Mind you luckily its not my job to worry about such things. The times I worked in those fields a browser upgrade came around the same time they upgraded the hardware.... eek.
What concerns me is the this urge to upgrade all of a sudden that did not exist prior. Ive been in places where it was okay that we had to restart machines due to memory leaks. Too much of a pain to deploy that fix but now you moan that every 6 weeks there is a new version. How many people would wait 5 weeks when a new version of IE came out to even download it to see what the general feedback on the web is?
As I said I know the hardest part is testing software against someones job you don't even do. There are too many unknown variables that don't get tested until after being deployed. With rapid release the real problem is lost money in lost productivity and more time spent tracking and fixing problems. But the problem is upgrading a working solution isn't something that was that compelling in the past and now it is?
Now if your customer base is using the browser is a different problem, but it is a problem if your a developer. I am just saying that's not the issue I am talking about. When a new version is out and you have very good communications with your client its almost easy to say please upgrade. When your client is the average web user this communication is not always there or is ignored. But if they don't have control of this then your really screwed. In the past developing browser based/browser interacted solutions probably could survive needing to be patched 6 weeks into a new browser release. Not sure If I want to describe it as a more urgent rush to fix at this point since obviously in the same amount of time a new version might fix this. But you have 6 weeks until another headache my arrive and you still need to find a permanent solution for the last problem.
I have Aspergers Syndrome so I have a little different logic. The way the world turns doesn't usually make much sense to me. I either follow very unwillingly or I stand up and take leadership. Please forgive me for my English. It is my first language sadly. I had a hell of a time with it in High School and College. For the laughs I always say I speak Borland Pascal just fine thank you.

Quartet Books publisher Naim Attallah must view this month's 20th anniversary of The Oldie with mixed emotions. The now profitable magazine edited by Richard Ingrams is holding a milestone party at Simpson's-in-the-Strand on July 19 but Attallah has yet to get even a fraction back of his £800,000 investment.
At one stage he mortgaged himself to the tune of £300,000 to keep the title afloat. Current publisher James Pembroke has given founding investors Stephen Glover, Alexander Chancellor and John McEwen payments of £2,000 each but this is peanuts compared to Attallah's massive commitment.
Commissioning editor Jeremy Lewis writes generously of Attallah's contribution in the 20th anniversary book but teases him by suggesting Ingrams was offering him the chance to interview nubile ladies. Ingrams and Attallah fell out when a review suggested Naim's books were written by a ghost writer.
Says one founder: "Naim was by a long way the largest investor in the magazine. He believed in Richard's original vision and stuck with the magazine. When it was finally bought by the late John Paul Getty, Naim got little money back."
When The Oldie was launched in 1992 Attallah, who also funded Auberon Waugh's Literary Review, was the main financial backer. Ingrams sank £20,000 into it. This money was matched by Glover, Chancellor, McEwen and Patrick Marnham adding £12,000 each.
The Oldie made a profit only recently as circulation rose above 40,000 per month and advertising revenue increased. Attallah has no ill feelings.
"I once wrote about my grandmother's Spartan sister, who planted an olive tree in her old age," he says. "'They plant so we eat, we plant so they eat,' she said. That's what life is all about."
Bob's lucky not to suffer the fate of Admiral Byng
IT would just not have been British for Bob Diamond to stay in his post, says Will Hutton. The economist, now head of Hertford College, Oxford, has long criticised the Barclays boss from the sidelines. Was he jumping with glee this morning? "I don't want to dance on his grave," says Hutton, "but I was astonished that he was chosen by the Barclays board, who were perhaps dazzled by his investment banking background and by how much profit he made but didn't ask the right questions. Ever since we hung Admiral Byng, the British have demanded accountability. He thinks it's unfair that he's been hounded out. He was going to get hung."
Admiral John Byng was actually shot by a firing squad in 1757 for failing to "do his utmost" to defend Menorca. The Treasury Select Committee will be taking aim at Diamond at tomorrow's hearing.
The her-story of Hollywood women
To mark the launch of its Berlin apartments, Soho House hosted Pablo Ganguli's Liberatum conference attended by Kim Cattral and Stephen Frears.
The launch featured talks by Cattrall and Frears. Cattrall spoke about the side-lining of women in Hollywood and the concept of being over the hill at 35.
"I grew up watching Marlene Dietrich and Bette Davis," she said. "These movies were made around the women — they were like goddesses. When I started acting, the men's roles were always so much better. Now when you see something like The Hunger Games it's exciting because it's her story."
The actress will spend September playing Cleopatra in Chichester.
The Coles make headway at The Spectator
How many hats can a literary lady wear without getting big-headed? Olivia Cole, literary editor of Gentlemen's Quarterly, known to its friends as GQ, has been appointed editor of the new lifestyle quarterly Spectator Life.
There she joins her brother Harry Cole, a top thinker at the Guido Fawkes political blog, who is a contributing editor at The Spectator.
Leggy Olivia, educated at Christ Church, Oxford, has often contributed to Spectator poetry evenings, to such an extent that there were fears for Hugo Williams as poetry editor.
"Hugo is absolutely poetry editor and my great friend so please don't say I have his job," says Olivia. Some might say the Coles are the new Johnsons at The Spectator.
"We are the brunette Johnsons," says Cole, who continues to write poetry. "My feeling is that Harry has better hair [than Boris]. Neither of us has mayoral ambitions."
A sorry excuse for the hugely overpaid
Three years ago I reported what seemed like a historic moment when Marcus Agius, chairman of Barclays, appeared to apologise for the 2008 banking crisis.
"Let me say how sorry I am for what happened," he told The Spectator's Paths Back to Prosperity Conference at Church House. Never having heard a banker say sorry, I pursued him for further enlightenment. Was he sorry for himself, I asked him, or sorry about what they had done to us?
"A lot of bankers have apologised," he told me. "We're all sorry about what has happened."
Unconvinced, I consulted another speaker, Sir Martin Jacomb, former chairman of BZW and a director of the Bank of England.
"Tony Blair and Gordon Brown apologise but bankers don't," he said.
"I'm reminded of Hartley Shawcross, who once said 'If I have done anything wrong, I apologise.'"
At the time Agius was justifying huge salaries for bankers on the grounds that you have to pay to attract the right people.
In the case of Bob Diamond, however, it seems paying top money didn't work.
*Peter Tatchell is calling for the Pride parade's start time to be reinstated at 1pm. "The sudden decision last week to bring it forward to 11am is a recipe for chaos and confusion," says Tatchell. "Shortening the post-parade rally in Trafalgar Square will force organisers to drop booked entertainers and human rights speakers." Who could he be thinking of?
Race hots up for D-G's job
A highly placed BBC source says Helen Boaden, director of BBC News Group, and Tim Davie, director of Audio and Music, are not thought to be in pole position for the director-generalship after the first round of interviews, but that, surprisingly after the Thames Jubilee pageant debacle, director of Vision George Entwistle is still in with a shout. Oddly, there was no mention of chief operating officer Caroline Thomson. Meanwhile, FT editor Lionel Barber was compelled to issue a statement last weekend: "Reports in the press that I have been interviewed for the role of director-general of the BBC are incorrect."Reuse content

What can fans expect at Club Hell, and why play such a small room?We played the Living Room about 100 times and we normally headline Lupo's, but we wanted to play a smaller, more intimate show. Playing Lupo's can sometimes make you feel disconnected from the crowd, so we wanted to forgo the giant stage and barrier for a show that's so close you can literally touch it. Fans can expect the same ridiculous amounts of energy from us, only this time we'll be sweating all over you instead of 30 feet away. We wouldn't normally practice four hours a day for a month straight, but home shows are special. We're going all out.

i would prefer the Sti over the EVO. and besides, the EVO doesn't exactly look all that nice and the interior is no where near as nice
You mean people buy a sports car for a luxury cars interior? Well comparing the huge price difference on them here in Japan there'd be no way in hell I'd give them that much cash for a STI when the Evo is available. Besides there are replacement from bumpers for the Evo to make it look like the previous versions. I don't see a headlight kit like that for the Subaru.
No offense but I just like the GC8 model WRX's. I doubt either of the two would win a beuty contest.
Sports car? Isn't it also 4 doors . But yeah, neither is luxurious.Originally posted by RNN14

My buddy who owns both an EVO VI and a STi says the interior on the Evo sucks. He also said all the EVOs he has owned were built porely compared to the STi. He has owned every version of each up to the 6th generation. He had an EVO VII for a couple of weeks but did not like it and took it back. Just so you guys know this in Thailand where he is from.

Don't be like the rsx guys and start talking about interior quality..
If the performances of the EVO is what I excepted. I'll have another car in my garage.
Interior?? what a joke buying a car solely on cosmetic appearances.
i have to admit that i have been to other clubs (not mentioning any names) and it does get a little boring when they start comparing leather seats and all, but lets not forget that different people look for different things in cars, and you dont have any right to bash on somebody if they like a car because of its interior, or exterior, or performance, or because it has little flames painted down the sides. even though WRX enthusiasts tend to be performance oriented, people spend their money on what they enjoy, so lets allow them to do that in peace...

HMMM....don't get me wishing for an EVO...I'm going to be homeless and sleeping in cars if my obsession gets the better of me.......
Anyways, I adore the EVO VI. The VII seems to be quite exciting as well, though I don't like the idea of depending on an enormous amount of electro gizmos. I would hate to blow a sensor for the center diff (electro hydro)and have the car turned into a FWD. One the other hand(typical double standard), it would be nice to make use of the hand brake is tight U-turns without fear of messing something in the center differential business. Evidently the EVO is sharper steering; not surprisingly so either, as the WRX lays on the same front geometry design that plagued a lourd full of Subarus resulting in lift under acceleration and ultimately UNDERSTEER(not to mention the lack of a front LSD doesn't help much either). The caster/anti lift kit should remedy this significantly however. I don't think there is a EVO in store for me anytime soon(ie the first production North American model) as I live in Canada where Mitsubishis(starting next year only) aren't even sold(apart from Eclipse=Talon, 3000GT=Stealth) and there is no official word when the EVO will even land on our shores.
Got some new info on US Evo VII on car and driver...
Evo 7 is only gonna have 250hp, due to different intercooler set up for the us spec (probably due to the frontal impact crash tests.)
Sti is still going to be around 270 or so.. yeah!

From the Director: Families In Trouble
BY: JOSH SPRING, GCCH Director
Today, Families with Children are the primary face of homelessness in the United States of America. As we know, families come in all shapes and sizes; two parents, one parent, many children, one child, few children…, and so do families experiencing homelessness. In 2010 here at the office of the Greater Cincinnati Homeless Coalition we noticed an increase in the number of families calling or coming to the office seeking assistance because they either were experiencing homelessness or were on the edge of homelessness. The Homeless Coalition is not a direct service provider, meaning we don't directly provide, housing, food, shelter, and other services. Our Members provide those services; we are the big picture, systematic change organization. So when we started hearing babies crying in our front lobby, it was not only new, but alarming.
We went forward and asked some of our members if things were changing for families. We heard again and again, yes things have changed and families are having a far more difficult time. There is more need and not enough resources to fill the need. Due to all of this we launched ourselves into a year-long study of family homelessness and housing instability in Hamilton County, led by a group we pulled together, the Family Homelessness and Housing Stability Taskforce. This group has included a Steering Committee, Prevention and Emergency Response Committee, Exiting Family Homelessness and Housing Stability Committee and the Resources and Data Committee. These four committees have included representatives from both public and private entities, shelter, housing, health care, education, faith, emergency services, neighborhood services, development, urban planning and more. We have also worked with a variety of researchers.
Through this we have collected pages and pages of data. Some alarming numbers: in comparing the 2005/2006 school year to the 2009/2010 school year Project Connect, a service in Cincinnati Public Schools, identified approximately 42% more children as experiencing homelessness. The number of unemployed workers in Hamilton County, between 2005 and 2010 increased by about 73%. The waiting list at Cincinnati Metropolitan Housing Authority for public housing in this time period has increased by about 126%.
The strength of our study however is in the stories of the families. We held focus groups with families from all over Hamilton County- families that were experiencing homelessness, were on the edge of homelessness or had in the past experienced homelessness. We spoke with families connected through faith groups, shelter, neighborhood services, housing, etc. These families told us that having sustainable employment that pays enough to get by is very difficult, maintaining housing at existing rates is nearly impossible and there seems to be no linear way to avoid homelessness or move from homelessness. They explained that they tried as hard as they could to avoid the experience of homelessness, but nothing ever seemed to be enough. They explained how hard all of this is and how much toll it takes on their families an children.
We will release our study on Thursday, February 16th at 1:30pm at the Health Foundation (3805 Edwards Road, 5th Floor). We will also release with the study, a list of recommendation: things we can do as a community to prevent and end family homelessness. This will take all of us, but we have to do it. You are invited.

Are the large measured wage differentials for on-the-job computer use a true return to computer skills, or do they just reflect that higher wage workers use computers on their jobs? We examine this issue with three large cross-sectional surveys from Germany. First, we confirm that the estimated wage differential associated with computer use in Germany is very similar to the U. S. differential. Second, we also measure large differentials for on-the-job use of calculators, telephones, pens or pencils, or for those who work while sitting down. We argue that these findings cast some doubt on the literal interpretation of the computer use wage differential as reflecting true returns to computer use or skill.

We recently purchased this tent for a camping trip. I've never seen truck tents before, and after much research - this was the one for us. During our camping trip we had rain and heavy wind. I'm pleased to say even the awning held up - and never fell with the winds. We stayed warm and dry - and had plenty of room for 2 people to sleep PLUS our gear. This tent is worth every penny and is great quality for the price! You can't beat it!

But, a new shooter does not need a 'project gun.' There is enough to try to master, without dealing with reliability issues. I usually always recommend an XD-9 or Glock 26 for a first subcompact to a novice shooter. They are both accurate, totally reliable, and easy to learn to shoot well. They are the same size and grip angle, so it doesn't really matter which one you choose. The XD has the grip safety, if you feel you need that extra assurance, and it doesn't hurt a thing, as far as shoot-ability.
I had pretty much the same ideas about what I wanted in a gun before really handling or shooting any of them. My price point was about $100 less than I ended up spending. Originally, I wasn't looking for a compact. Anyway, the first one I shot in my search was the M&P9. It didn't have the external safety that I had to have, no decocker, and more money than I wanted to spend. But it just felt so good. I decided during my search that I would be getting my CWP soon so I started looking at the compact models. After all the guns I shot, I ended up going with my M&P9c. External safety is a non-issue for me now.
first off, i lost patience and only read about half the replies so if I am repeating then I apologize.
For an inexpensive mid size with decocker and safety check out the ruger P94 and P93 models (both discontinued but plenty online for sale).
For economical guns i recommend a company called cdnn that does overstocks, discontinued models, police buybacks, etc.
But I think you need to do some test firing of a few guns via rentals (even if they don't have the exact models you are looking for it will give you an idea whcih features you like) and hit a good size gun show to just feel up and try on a bunch of different models.
I would also recommend a basic handguns 101 type class.
S&W Sigma 9mm VE, 16+1 cap, DAO, no safety to fuss with, the 10# trigger would be next to impossible to accidently discharge, rugged, 100% reliable, born in the USA for under $350. delivered and in stock froms Buds. I shoot my neighbors M&P 9C all the time and the trigger is too light for a gun with no safety for me. The Sigma is not a tack driver rather a self defense, no nonsense weapon and it does it well. If SHTF nobody will notice a 10# trigger pull. I carry mine daily in a Kholster IWB.

The researchers at the University of Helsinki, Finland, and University Hospital of Bonn, Germany, have coined the novel term "Bioportfolio" to describe viral genomic material remaining in the human body after infection. Using human erythrovirus as the example, the authors have demonstrated that viral genomic material persisting in the human body yields valuable information on viral phylogeny and on molecular epidemiology of infection.
Although these results are of greatest interest to the relatively small group interested in erythrovirus (parvovirus) research, the ideas discussed are of wider interest because they explore in an imaginative way some fundamental biological events occurring during and after infection.
The research group lead by professor Klaus Hedman at the University of Helsinki have investigated by qualitative and quantitative molecular assays a large number of human tissue samples (birth-year range 1913-2000) and patient sera from the past two decades, for genomic DNA of new and previously known human erythrovirus types. They disclosed in human tissues erythrovirus genome persistence, which is ubiquitous and life-long, and represents a new source of information of our past -- which they termed the Bioportfolio.
In the Bioportfolio the researchers observed that in Central and Northern Europe the newly found erythrovirus type 2 in occurrence was actually older than the virus prototype; and that the other recently found type 3 never attained wide circulation in the area during the 70-year observation period from the thirties to the present day. Thereby, the Bioportfolio constitutes at the individual level a new form of "medical record" for one's infectious encounters. At the global and epidemiological level, it provides a novel database for analysis of the occurrence and circulation of microbial species and their variants.
Furthermore, in light of the previously shown integrity and full-length coding potential of the persistent macromolecular viral DNA genomes, the Bioportfolio might provide the desired long-term permanence for gene therapy vectors, which in the future could be designed in accordance with this innate characteristic of the human body.

From a guest perspective, our commitment is to provide a unique and memorable ecotourism experience. Interpretation of the environment is seen as a critically important component of the total environmental program – both for adults and our Junior Eco Rangers (Children aged 4-14 years).
Meet and greet sessions inform all guests of their environmental responsibility and appropriate behaviour on Fraser Island and around dingoes and other fauna. The resort's interpretative and environmental activities mirror the aims of education, preservation and appreciation, established for a World Heritage area, and the introduction of the 'Rangers in the Community' program (where our team head into schools and nursing homes with an environmental message) has increased scope of education locally.
As they leave, our guests tell us they have had a life changing experience. They want to go back to their home and do something for the environment - whether it is to recycle, conserve water, or take up bird watching. They want to get in touch with their own environment - maybe become involved with the local Landcare group - particularly where children are concerned.

Some materials are powerful pollutants like raw sewage, petroleum, or pesticides, but even natural, biodegradable plant materials can add nitrogen to water resources and cause algal blooms and fish kills.
