Even if you use SRS, there's still a small gain in precision because
of the finite nature of the population captured by the finite
population correction, 1-300/7000. (If you sampled 7000 out of 7000,
your uncertainty will be zero, which is what the fpc is reflecting,
among other things.) You don't need anything at all for this, just
svyset, fpc(7000)

Projects and Proposals
Durham Illuminations
The purpose of this project is to record, study, and present (in forms appropriate both to the scholarly community and to the general public) the very many illuminated manuscripts in Durham collections. The material in question ranges from early Insular gospel-books, through magnificent Romanesque giant Bibles, to late medieval vernacular texts, service books and Books of Hours, and includes the work of French, German and Italian, as well as British, illuminators.
The Manuscripts of Bede
The last of the Fathers of the Church, the first and arguably the greatest English scholar and historian, Bede has a central place in medieval culture and civilisation. The continuous flow of modern studies on numerous aspects of his manifold writings attests to the interest and importance of his corpus and to the vitality of current work in this field.
A fundamental tool for modern scholarship was Laistner's handlist of manuscripts of Bede's works, published in 1943. Sixty years and numerous studies later, the time is ripe for a re-assessment of the state of our knowledge of the manuscript witnesses to Bede's oeuvre, and hence of its transmission and reception, and to reconsider the questions that can be posed of this formidable corpus.
Accordingly the Durham University Centre for the History of the Book held a colloquium on Bedan manuscripts, from Wednesday 6 to Friday 8 August 2008.

A Sudoku diet can hlep you burn 90 calories an hour whilst sitting on your sofa.
Puzzles are the new workout, so says a researcher who makes the assertion above.
This is the eyebrow-raising claim some mental agility experts made yesterday in an attempt to encourage more people to log on to their brain-training website.
Researcher Tim Forrester, from cannyminds.com, explained: 'Our brains require 0.1 calories every minute simply to survive. When we do something challenging such as a puzzle or a quiz we can burn through 1.5 calories every minute.'
The brain is comprised of millions of nerve cells known as neurons which transmit messages to the body.
Doing puzzles and quizzes apparently burns an average of 90 calories per hour, compared to a 56 calories' chocolate chip cookie, a 57 calories' custard cream and an 85 calories' jammy dodger.
Neurons produce chemicals called neurotransmitters to transmit their signals.
These neurons extract three-quarters of sugar glucose, available calories and a fifth of oxygen from the blood to create neurotransmitters.
Therefore, doing difficult crosswords or challenging Sudokus means your brain will want more glucose and extra calories too.
However, it is clearly impossible to think yourself thinner as the brain uses a great of energy, but not fat. Unlike sugars, fat molecules cannot be broken down into glucose.
So should you wish to lose weight, you will need to exercise and eat a healthily balanced diet .

The Lee's Summit Arts Council is recommending that the city renovate Arnold Hall to be a "white box" for exhibits and small indoor performances.
Under that plan, Arnold Hall (a former manufacturing plant) might be brought out of mothballs to make its large open space available to various organizations.
"The only limit on what we can do in there is the limit of our imagination," said Ben Martin, LSAC member and president of Summit Theatre Group.
Councilman Allan Gray had gone to an Arts Council last week to talk about proposals for the building and land at 123 SE Third Street. He suggested razing the building, a proposal that was met with some push-back from the group.
The city wants to use the site for an outdoor performance space, financed by a portion of at $2.8 million bond issue for cultural arts facilities approved by voters in April.
The city had wanted to use a downtown site on Market Street, but couldn't negotiate an acceptable price for the land, so the council decided to consider using the city-owned land across from City Hall on Third Street.
Gray said in an interview Nov. 19 that he went to the Arts Council meeting last week to make sure it was involved as the city goes forward on the project.
Hollis+Miller, the city's architect for the project, is to make a report on the issue to the City Council on Nov. 21.
The Arts Council reacted by calling a special meeting which it held Nov. 18.
Renovating Arnold Hall was part of the initial proposal for a cultural facilities bond issue, when it was to be a "white box" shared as museum space for the Lee's Summit Historical Society.
Arnold Hall was left out of the package presented to voters in April. Instead the WPA Post Office was included to be a new home for the society's museum.
Gray said the reason was that he wanted to move the Lee's Summit Historical Society to the WPA Post Office because Arnold Hall would have been a temporary site and he didn't want to make the society to move twice.
The WPA Post Office decision did fulfill the long-term vision of the historical society, but disappointed leaders of other organizations who wanted a downtown, indoor performance space.
The council then, at Gray's suggestion, asked city staff look at alternative funding for Arnold Hall as a white box by borrowing from other city funds, with the idea of paying that inter-fund loan back within five years.
That proposal was dropped; City Manager Steve Arbo said the idea fell through because the city couldn't identify a revenue stream that would repay the other funds.
Gray said he has been pointing out that architects have said Arnold Hall has outlived its usefulness.
"I'm just trying to consider how Arnold Hall fits into the equation or not as we go forward," Gray said.
Gray said the council should give serious consideration to the Arts Council recommendation, but council members and arts leaders will have to "dive deeper" to look at finances to determine how to pay for operating costs for Arnold Hall.
"There's some questions to be answered," Gray said. "I'm supportive of the Arts Council's resolution, if there are ways to bring it about."
The outdoor performance venue had a budget of $600,000, including purchasing land. During the Nov. 12 LSAC meeting, Gray said demolishing Arnold Hall would eat about $70,000 of those funds.
Proponents of renovating Arnold Hall note now there is money available because the city doesn't have to purchase land. There's also plenty of space available adjacent to Arnold Hall., said Syrtiller Kabat, chair of the Arts Council.
"We have more land to work with than the Market Street site," Kabat said. "We're seeing it as a positive for the community."
She said the Nov. 18 special meeting was called to review the city's 2007 Cultural Arts Plan and the 2012 recommendations of the Cultural Arts Facility Task Force, then decide on a recommendation to the council.
The resolution passed for renovating Arnold Hall and to build the outdoor venue next to it passed unanimously by the nine of 11 members present.
She said Duncan Webb, the author of the original Cultural Arts Plan adopted by the city, attended the meeting to answer questions.
Council member Rob Binney, liaison with the Arts Council, is to take the recommendation to the City Council's Nov. 21 meeting.
Binney said his first choice would have been to build the venue on Market Street as originally planned. Because that isn't possible, the site at Arnold Hall is the best alternative, he said.
He said he supports renovating the building for an interim use, although in 10 or 15 years the city might want to take a different tack.
Binney said his main objective is to complete an outdoor festival space as promised to voters.
"If there's money left over, a means to do something with Arnold Hall, it's something to look at," Binney said. "I don't see a need to take it down now if it can serve a purpose."

Each year all public school districts and facilities across the state of Colorado participate in the Student October Count data submission to the Colorado Department of Education (CDE). The purpose of this data collection is to obtain required student level data as provided for by state statute, including information regarding students' funding eligibility as outlined in the Public School Finance Act of 1994, as amended (22-54-101, C.R.S.). The Colorado Department of Education collects these data through the Data Pipeline system with the Information Management Services (IMS) unit of CDE overseeing the collection.
The Student October Count is based on a one (1) day membership count in which districts are asked to report all students who are actively enrolled and attending classes through their district on that date. While the submission should only include those students who meet the membership and scheduling requirements as of the pupil enrollment count day, the actual submission process begins in September and closes mid-November. Districts should refer to the Student October Count data submission documentation distributed by the IMS unit at CDE for further information regarding the actual submission process and data element definitions.

I have gone threw the owner's manual about a dozen times and reread it thinking that I may have missed something.
My garage door is a Fixed Code.
My truck has the 3 LED indicator light on the 3 buttons.
Briefly this is what I'm suppose to do
Hit all three buttons at the same time for about three seconds. Release the buttons which puts the Universal Home Remote into program mode. The indicator lights will blink slowly. Enter each switch setting from my hand held remote of my garage door opener into the UHR of the truck.
When that was completed, I hit all three switches again and held them for up to 55 seconds in hope that my garage door might slightly move indicating that the program took. Then selecting the one button I wanted to dedicate as the garage door button. After about 6 attempts at this with no good results frustration set in. I want in my CAVE

What can I say.....SIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhh !!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome guys xxxxxxx
Empty beaches and crystal clear lagoons in El Nido
Loading Map
Kaz & Anna quickly found us some bungalows on the beach. Sadly not facing the ocean but a mere 10 seconds walk from it! Tut tut, Ashley & I accepted this calamity with good grace!
There are lots of karst formations in this area of Palawan like in Thailand & Halong Bay and even though I have seen them many times now I will never tire of looking out at these beautiful formations whilst chilling on a beach.
The following day we hired our own boat with a boatman and headed off to a beach called 7 commandos. It is a lovely big beach with incredible white sand. As Karen was getting off the boat she fell into the water. All good fun. Unfortunately, she was carrying the bag with our lunch which was now submerged into the Pacific! So our sandwiches consisted of tuna, salad, sand and sea! Yum yum! It was too windy on 7 commandos beach so we asked our boatman to take us to a more secluded beach. It's crazy to think that we could just pick and choose our own empty beaches!
There are loads of islands off El Nido, some of which are in kayaking distance. So Kaz & I decided to Kayak out to one and spend the day on our own bit of paradise. Sadly Ashley had way too much sun so could not join us. Now I warned Kaz that it would not be easy but she brushed me off as if I was some land loving gimp! I am sad to say that I was proved correct as when we were between islands the water got quite choppy. It was not too bad but it was no walk in the park either!
Thankfully we made it to land and literally crashed on to the beach as if we had been at sea for months! Now the beach we were on was lovely but I don't think we relaxed too much as we knew we had to kayak back. When we did eventually get back in our sturdy bit of fibre-glass the water had become even more choppy. So we did what anybody would do in that situation. We bummed a lift off a passing boat! Well we did want our own Robinson Crusoe moment and we got it in all it's glory!
Paul's been quite kind to me in his description of our terrible kayaking adventure. When we were stuck out in that deep dark ocean in our little, flimsy kayak I felt sheer terror. I was screaming my head off, totally having a hysterical fit that easily surpassed any of my dramatic outbursts to date. My whole life flashed right before my eyes. It was officially the scariest moment of our trip so far!
The four of us got on our own private bangka and toured the wonderful surrounding islands and beaches of the area. One highlight was snorkelling in a secret spot that our boatman's son Kenneth had discovered where we saw hundreds of fish, quickly followed by a superb lunch of bar-b-q's bangus fish cooked by our boatman on a deserted beach. The main highlight however, was the big lagoon. Imagine swimming through crystal clear water through a small opening in the cliffs. Once on the other side you find yourself in turquoise water completely surrounded by tall cliffs. There's no one else there, except a few birds, the silence and stillness is complete. That is how we experienced the small lagoon, one of the most beautiful places we've seen to date. Paul and I swam to a rock in the middle of the lagoon and just sat there admiring the beauty surrounding us. Once again, nature had come up trumps and left us awestruck.
As we'd promised Wee, we ended our tour at Los Cabanas beach, drinking rum, enjoying the sunset and befriending the local dogs. Wee had a special treat for us. When night fell he offered us a lift back to our resort on a boat. As we sailed on the dark still waters in the moonlight, we dipped our hands in the sea which immediately lit up with tiny dots of light formed by the plankton. It felt like we were waving magic wands in the sea and creating sparks. It was a perfect ending to a great day and a wonderful two weeks with Ash and Anna.
We were sooooo sad to say our goodbyes the next day. We'd truly had a fantastic time together, and knew we would miss them a lot (2 months on and we still do!). Ash and Anna, thank you for coming out to meet us. You made our first two weeks in the Philippines truly special!
But it's onwards and upwards for these two vagabonds and a few days later we left our little piece of heaven and made our way back to Manila. From there we were heading to a very exciting destination - Donsol a place where you can swim with Whale Sharks. Woo hooo
See you when we get there
Lots of love
Karen and Paul
Post your own travel photos for friends and family More Pictures
Paul & Karen what a place, I love reading your stories, Karen I can just pic the bag falling into the sea, that happened to my friend when we got of a boat, it brought back some memories for me. Well am waiting for the next lot of pic keep them coming. Take care. xx
Wow that was an amazing read and great pictures ,hope the fish enjoyed your lunch keep them coming xxx

Research led by University of Leicester geneticists, comparing the DNA of 150 pairs of men who share British surnames, has shown that about a quarter of pairs are linked genetically. Their findings are to be published in the journal Current Biology on 21 February.
The key is in the Y chromosome -- the part of our genetic material that confers maleness, and is passed, like many surnames, from father to son. A simple link between name and Y chromosome could in principle connect all men sharing a surname into one large family tree.
However, in reality the link may not be so clear cut. Each name may have had several founders, and adoptions, name-changes and non-paternities would confuse any simple genetic link. Previous research had suggested a link for some particular names.
The new study, from Turi King, Stéphane Ballereau and Mark Jobling from the University of Leicester, and Kevin Schürer from the University of Essex, examines the issue more generally by analysing many names, and recruiting pairs randomly from the population.
Pairs sharing surnames are on average much more likely to share Y chromosomes than pairs with different names, and the link becomes stronger as names become rarer. For example, there is no link for Smith, Jones and Taylor, but a clear link for Attenborough, Widdowson and Grewcock.
Linked men share a common ancestor less than 20 generations ago (about 1300 AD), when surnames were founded. The research has important implications for genealogists wishing to connect branches of their family trees.
It also has a potential use in forensic science, since it suggests that, given large databases of names and Y chromosome profiles, surname prediction from DNA alone may be feasible.

Boxer: If ObamaCare covers Viagra, why shouldn't it cover abortion?
posted at 5:34 pm on December 8, 2009 by Allahpundit
Because … no one has grave moral reservations about treating sexual dysfunction? Or is pregnancy itself a sexual "dysfunction" in this analogy?
The clip comes via The Hill. Even better than the Viagra comparison is her insinuation of a gender double standard perpetrated by dastardly male senators, never mind the fact that more women now call themselves pro-life than pro-choice. Or at least, that's what Gallup claims. And you know how those little babies at Gallup can be.

We Bought A Zoo [Celluloid Hero]
We Bought A Zoo (2011)
There's an old saying in Hollywood: "never work with children or animals." The idea is that both are unreliable, making filming stressful. If they end up being a success, they can steal the spotlight away from the star; if they are failures, it can take down a whole movie. Matt Damon took the risk and worked with both kids AND animals, and ended up with a mostly uninspired movie.
There is always difficulty in doing a movie based on reality. The true story of Benjamin Mee was pretty unbelievable, so it's hard to tell how much was embellished for the sake of Hollywood and how much was real. There was a good focus on the pain the family was going through after losing a wife and mother. Mee had a 14-year-old son and 7-year-old daughter, and for children of that age to lose a mother is devastating.
I actually think that the actors (human and non) were pretty good, but Cameron Crowe's direction was lacking. Crowe makes all of his movies with heavy focus on the music, but all of his choices felt cliche and not really relating to the scene. Many of the actors seemed misused as well; it's a bit difficult to tell how much was the fault of the actors and how much was the fault of the director.
Overall there was a bit of unevenness to the whole movie. There were very heavy, very serious conflicts between father and son, both unsure of how to deal with their grief. These moments would be countered with a wise-cracking brother and a loud drunk Scottish zookeeper. I wasn't expecting a heavy drama, but if you went into this movie expecting a light-hearted family movie, you might have gotten a few moments you weren't ready for.
I give credit to the cinematography; it wasn't anything groundbreaking, but it did give some great visuals and great shots of animals. The directing and some of the acting, though, pull "We Bought A Zoo" down a few notches.

I was wanting to know how many times do the dogs need to be together to ensure a pregnancy and, once she takes, how many pups to expect. I know this may sound silly. I know it only takes one time to get pregnant, however I'm not sure if multiple pairings should be done to ENSURE that the female takes. I was thinking of leaving the dogs together for a few days during her second week of heat. Any suggestions???? Only a few days left.

i get phone calls from private numbers 6-7 times a day. the first call i got i told them i was unable to pay and went into details of my discussion with amex who told me they had written off the account . mjr collections calls all times of the day . last two weeks i got a letter from them stating they had filed a judgement against me and they were seeking 30% interest from last payment. they included a copy of the last bill from amex. debt is 2000.00. as i am not indebted to these vultures i am not about to speak with any of them as my debt is with amex who wrote the debt off.
i found out that the document sent to me wasnot a real legaldocument even though it had a seal
today i got a phone call at work 2x this man purporting to be a lawyer for mjr . i said if you are a lawyer then you know it is illegal to contact me at work without my permission. i hung up he called again to let me know he has started legal proceedings to have my wages garnished as he spoke with hr.
how do i get these people off my back.. i never answer private numbers . the phone calls are harrassing and now to put the icing on the cake they have contacted me at work.

SRK discharged from hospital after shoulder surgery
SRK had to undergo an arthroscopic surgery for acute pain in his shoulder.
Mumbai: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who underwent a successful shoulder surgery at the Breach Candy hospital on Monday evening, has been discharged, said a hospital source.
"Shah Rukh has been discharged from the hospital. He left at around 5 pm," a source at the south Mumbai hospital said on Tuesday evening.
The actor had to undergo an arthroscopic surgery for acute pain in his left shoulder. Though he had planned to fly to London for the surgery, he chose to get it done in Mumbai under the guidance of Sanjay Desai, the orthopaedic surgeon at Breach Candy.
For now, Shah Rukh has been advised by doctors to refrain from indulging in any heavy-duty action scenes.
"It's a normal precaution that one has to take. The surgery was long pending and it is good that he finally took out time for it. Keeping in mind that he would only become busier in months to come, it made sense that he got himself operated before it was too late," Desai had said.
The 43-year-old superstar will be on a forced break for six weeks to recuperate completely.

Ask the players and they'll tell you: the pressure of playing for your country in a Davis Cup tie is different somehow.
Perhaps it's because tennis is, above all else, a 1-on-1 test of will and nerve – even doubles specialists played tournament singles at some level – and playing for a shirt that's not just your sponsor's adds an element of mystique and a sense of mission.
Or maybe it's because nationalism creeps into the equation from both the player and crowd standpoints and the atmosphere is that much more fevered.
Ultimately, it doesn't really matter why, the doing is the thing.
Vasek Pospisil says he found that out last fall, when the Canadian essentially won a road matchup against Israel on his own, taking both of his singles matches and winning in doubles with Daniel Nestor.
"It's a confidence thing, playing for your country is probably the most pressure you're ever going to face on a tennis court. You're not just playing for yourself, you're playing for a lot of people and a team. When you can get through that and have a great Davis Cup moment, you feel almost invincible," said Pospisil, who rode the momentum of his autumn weekend in Israel to a career-high No. 85 ranking on the ATP computer earlier this season. (His form has since tailed off a little, now sitting just outside the top 100.)
The 22-year-old takes to the court at Uniprix Stadium this weekend as part of a Canadian squad that will take on South Africa in a pivotal match-up: the winner advances to the World Group (made up of the top 16 countries in tennis).
The seemingly ageless Nestor, 40, is the top-ranked doubles player in the world and is expected to team with Pospisil in that event Saturday.
The rest of the squad includes Frank Dancevic, a 27-year-old veteran who is expected to play in singles, and the team's undisputed on-court leader, 21-year-old Milos Raonic, the 15th-ranked men's player on the planet.
Raonic hopes to provide a decisive advantage to Canada in the singles matches, which start Friday, the final matches are Sunday.
Beyond this week's on-court action, there is also a bigger picture to consider.
The team entourage this week also includes a pair of Pospisil and Raonic's contemporaries in the emergent generation of Canadian tennis: 24-year-old Peter Polansky and 18-year-old junior sensation Filip Peliwo.
Pospisil said the Davis Cup has been a pivotal proving ground in his development, mostly because of the way the international event has taught him to manage stress.
"You can't let the pressure get to you, you have to be composed and just focus on your game. Davis Cup is the hardest event to do that, to block out all the distractions. If you can master doing that during an event like this, it makes it a lot easier for life on the tour"
Raonic, who missed last fall's tie because of injury and also had to pull out of a World Group against France last spring, said he hopes the Davis Cup will provide a springboard for his own top-10 hopes.
He pointed to the recent example of Spaniard Fernando Verdasco, who reached the semi-finals of the Australian Open a few months after winning the 2008 Davis Cup final, and then broke into the ATP top 10.
"You look at [Serbia's Novak] Djokovic doing the same when they won in 2010, going to No. 1, [Janko] Tisparevic feeding off it. At one point, they had three guys in the top 15. … When you can do these things and do them well, it gives you an intangible," Raonic said.
The rangy, hard-server said there's no substitute for testing oneself in high-profile events – his experience of playing a marathon match against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France at this summer's London Olympics is a classic example.
In his apprenticeship in the upper echelons of tennis – and in Davis Cup – Raonic is gaining valuable mental preparation for the crucible that is the late stages of a Grand Slam.
"I felt I dealt with [the Olympics] pretty well. I'm learning constantly, I don't have too many of these experiences under my belt," Raonic said. "I'm just trying to make the most of them and to run with it as much as I can."Report Typo/Error

A few things seemed different with the Shins after scoping those photos and setlist from their early tour stop at Seattle's Showbox: new songs ("Double Bubble" and "The Rifle's Spiral"), new members, no Sandoval and Crandall. When Jessica spoke with them for a Progress Report, Mercer confirmed it: Marty and Jesse are gone, replaced with Ron Lewis (bass) and Modest Mouse drummer Joe Plummer, because James Mercer is going for a new sound with his new tunes. "[The songs are] just a bit more rhythmic. They're kind of about the percussion and stuff. One of them is really angular and chunky. It's jabs with chords instead of strumming," he told us. "And then the other one is really rhythmic and has kind of a mod, new wave sound to it." "Double Bubble" is the mod, new wave one. It's also his favorite, according to an interview with larecord, because "It's really fun to play and the audience really likes it. It's got a good energy to it. It's fun to dance to, actually, which is really cool." And he's right. People were a little skeptical about James's reasons for the lineup shift, but "Double Bubble" is pretty persuasive; this is the best new Shins song in awhile, and this performance makes the Shins out to be a better live act than you remember.
This hasn't been set to tape yet, but the Shins are looking at 2010 for a new album on Mercer's new label Aural Apothacary. This better be on it. In the meantime, James has a track on the Dangermouse/Sparkle Horse/David Lynchy project Dark Night Of The Soul, and makes his acting debut in Matt McCormick's Some Days Are Better Than Others, due out sometime in 2010. Now let's hear the mod track. (UPDATE: It's here.)

There has been turmoil and angst recently in the 0pen source community of late over Oracle's decision to cancel OpenSolaris. Since this community can be expected to react violently anytime something is taken out of open source, the real question is whether this action has any impact on real-world IT and operations professionals. The short answer is no.
Enterprise Solaris users, be they small, medium or large, are using it to run critical applications; and as far as we can tell, the uptake of OpenSolaris as opposed to Solaris supplied and sold by Sun was very low in commercial accounts, other than possibly a surge in test and dev environments. The decision to take Solaris into the open source arena was, in my opinion, fundamentally flawed, and Oracle's subsequent decision to change this is eminently rational – Oracle's customers almost certainly are not going to run their companies on an OS that is built and maintained by any open source community (even the vast majority of corporate Linux use is via a distribution supported by a major vendor and under a paid subscription model), and Oracle cannot continue to develop Solaris unless they have absolute control over it, just as is the case with every other enterprise OS. In the same vein, unless Oracle can also have an expectation of being compensated for their investments in future Solaris development, there is little motivation for them to continue to invest heavily in Solaris.

I've been getting a number of inquiries recently regarding benchmarking potential savings from consolidating multiple physical servers onto a smaller number of servers using VMs, usually VMware. The variations in the complexity of the existing versus new infrastructures, operating environments, and applications under consideration make it impossible to come up with consistent rules of thumb, and in most cases, also make it very difficult to predict with any accuracy what the final outcome will be absent a very tedious modeling exercise.
However, the major variables that influence the puzzle remain relatively constant, giving us the ability to at least set out a framework to help analyze potential consolidation projects. This list usually includes:

For those who remember Condorstrike's Condor Updater homebrew application for custom firmware PS3s, you'll be glad to know that it has been updated to support the array of 4.xx custom firmwares available. For those who don't know what this does, it's a nifty tool that allows you to reboot into a "pseudo-recovery" mode so you won't have to turn off the PS3 and do the button sequence to go into recovery mode. Here's what Condorstrike had to say about the update:
Hi guys, I took a short break from Pointman, my upcoming PS3 Homebrew video game, and decided to investigate what Sony did to prevent Condor Updater from working on 4.xx. After some coffee and hair pulling it seems the culprit was one of my protection checks implemented in v2.0, so I re-wrote it and added a nice PIC1.PNG and ICON0.PNG, and now it works on 4.xx CFWs.
- Re-wrote code to make app compatible with 4.xx CFWs.
- Cleaned Code and removed unneeded LV2 patch protections.
- Replaced loading method.
- Replaced ICON0.PNG and PIC1.PNG.
Hope you Enjoy it… CAW!
PS: I don't have a NAND-PS3 to test with, so I don't know if It'll work on those models.
You can grab the updated application from below.

Part 2
SUBMITTED: Sunday, July 21, 2013POSTED: Sunday, July 21, 2013
Also, Chapter 13 bankruptcy is not a "get out of debt free" card, Debts are repaid. This so-called complaint is nothing more than retaliation against me for sharing Ripoff Reports regarding complaints against Fisher Investments. I knew that "Goliath" would come after "David", instead of addressing the original compliants against them. They have the opportunity to rebutt the complaints against them, but have chosen to make a complaint against me, which isn't a complaint at all.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?
#2 REBUTTAL Owner of company
SUBMITTED: Sunday, July 21, 2013POSTED: Sunday, July 21, 2013
Yes, I did declare bankruptcy back in 2005. Many other successful people have in the past, including Donald Trump. My experience has actually helped me in becoming a better advisor and financial coach. No one is perfect, but we can all learn from our mistakes. I have not mis-managed any client money, so therefore, I have never ripped-off anyone. Nor will you find any complaints from my clients regarding the advice that I have given them or the performance of their investents. Thanks for attacking me instead of defending your poor performance.

Date of Stay: October, 2013
This park is a small park on a hill overlooking a beautiful lake with a boat house and fishing dock. Beautiful sunset and clear sky to see a billion stars. It does have a two lane road in front and at the bottom of the hill but very little night time traffic. We had a picnic table and friendly neighbors. I would of liked to stayed another day to explore, but we needed to leave the next morning. Thanks Mt St Helens RV resort! I logged you in my "book" as my favorite place of all, and we stayed 16 places in 25 days.
Date of Stay: October, 2013
What a nice place this was. It's down by the river loaded with salmon. It's nothing fancy; good folks with reasonable rates. Away from the busy cities. We stayed 2 days so we could travel to Seattle. The hosts of the camp were very nice and helped us jump our car. He was super! Quiet and friendly. We had our own bathroom with shower so I did not go into their facilities. Overall we had fun and relaxed and my dogs had fun too!
Date of Stay: October, 2013
Shoreline RV we called the Land of NO. First, where is the shore??? No shore. The park was super clean and really, really close to the road. When I called the number I specifically asked about the road noise and the woman said the road noise quiets down after 8 pm. At check in the other lady was really slow and took about 15 minutes to check me in - like I wasn't already tired. The road noise never quieted down. We heard it all night long and that was the worse night's sleep I got on our trip. The laundry facilities were expensive to use. It was $2.00 each for wash and dry. So if you are thinking of this place to spend the night, I would travel down the road a bit and find somewhere else quieter. You do have that option. If I knew then what I know now I would of kept my money and gave it to someone else.
Date of Stay: May, 2013
Wow, what a blast at St. George Island State Park. Super quiet and close access to a beautiful white sandy beach. The campground host was a kind gentlemen. He told me all about the park and the Native Americans that roamed the shores. He even gave me a sand dollar!! Of all the beaches I have walked, this beach beats them all...miles and miles of white, smooth sand. The only bummer was I could not take my dog on the beach, but it still was a wonderful time there. Thanks SGISP.

Run Time: 135 min.
Cast: Jeremy Renner, Rachel Weisz, Scott Glenn, Stacy Keach, Edward Norton
Director: Tony Gilroy
Rating: PG-13
Let me start off this review by stating that I am a huge fan of the original Bourne Trilogy. The combination of Doug Liman, Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon was lethal with the launch of the initial episode. I found myself going out of my way to go and see all of the original trilogy the weekend that they opened and I have to say that I really enjoyed all three of them even though as we progressed through the three we lost Mr. Liman and Greengrass as we progress the previous three movies. We now find ourselves missing all of the above stated individuals and having to jump into a semi reboot of a series.
Just as the first one began and the most recent one ended we start Legacy with a figure floating in the water. As this figure breaks the surface we are introduced to Aaron Cross (JeremyRenner) as he makes his way across the Alaskan wilderness where in which is it nearly 20 minutes before we even hear him speak a word. During this same time we find ourselves being reintroduced to the events of the last 45 minutes of the previous Bourne film which assist in laying the ground work for the events of this movie.
Essentially, with Jason Bourne exposing the Treadstone Project the puppet masters behind all of these elite killer programs that the US government is running need to be shut down immediately due to the blow back of the exposure of Treadstone. This responsibility is in the hands of Edward Norton's (Eric Byer) and those in the CIA and other black ops programs in the US government. Byer makes the decision that the only way to save his own Outcome Program is to burn all of the other programs to the ground. Where in which our story begins.
As Byer fails at taking our Cross in the Alaskan wilderness we are set on a adventure very similar and structured identically along the lines of the previous three movies. We have the standard three different settings (Alaska, Washington D.C. and Manila) we also are guest to one massive action sequence (two or three less than its predecessors) and three strong characters in Renner, Weisz and Norton.
The story differs from the previous three as Damon's Bourne is trying to figure out his true identity and get revenge against the Treadstone program while Renner is on a global adventure to get his one last fix. As we find out that this generation of super killers that Renner comes from are dependent upon taking a blue and green pill everyday to not only stay super human but to simply stay alive. It is this drug treatment that introduces us to Rachel Weisz's character of Marta Shearing. Shearing is a geneticist who works for the corporation that has been contracted by the government to manipulate the DNA of these individuals and make them part of the Outcome Program. The problem is that when Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) exposes Treadstone and Blackbriar the government tries to kill the scientists to. Through flashbacks we discover that Marta and Aaron previously meet during one of his many "check in" with the Outcome Project and she is lucky enough to have Aaron come to her rescue at the last minute. These events lead us on a journey to Manila so that Aaron Cross can free himself of the binds of the chemical dependency of the blue and green pill. All of this comes together in a large scale action scene on motorcycles in the streets of Manila that unlike the first two Bourne movies lacks the slick camera cuts and white knuckle journeys we have comes to expect from the Bourne movies.
Simply put, is Bourne Legacy a decent movie worth your 2 hours of your summer? Yes it is. The problem with the movie comes from its overall pace. It spends too much time trying to create a crossover from the previous movie while trying to introduce us to a new protagonist. The overall flow of the movie made me feel like I was in the car with a 15 year old kid whom just received their learners permit and is trying to learn to drive stick. The excessive starting and stopping and jumping back and for begins to wear on you over time.
Overall Grade – B

Good idea on alternating between ypsi dubs and washtenaw county glow. That should help turnout at both leagues... Hope to be out there sometime soon. Cheers
Foz Miller November 28, 2012 at 5:40pm
The consensus after our recent Waterworks glow round was that most wanted to go back to MBD. Once back there some mention going to other courses. EMU has also been tossed around - Maybe we need to do the 24 Chains method of voting a week ahead.
The Big change for now is that Ypsi Dubs Glow is only every other week, with Washtenaw Glow being on the other week. I just list both location on our schedule so players get the idea and have a higher probability of show up at the right course at th ... more
The consensus after our recent Waterworks glow round was that most wanted to go back to MBD. Once back there some mention going to other courses. EMU has also been tossed around - Maybe we need to do the 24 Chains method of voting a week ahead.
The Big change for now is that Ypsi Dubs Glow is only every other week, with Washtenaw Glow being on the other week. I just list both location on our schedule so players get the idea and have a higher probability of show up at the right course at the right day and time - which week is Tuesday or Wednesday and at which course. I will delete the Wednesday entries off the Ypsi Dubs Glow and not post scores that week as they will be on the Washtenaw Glow league. Ypsi Dubs may change the course we play depending on the desires of those who come out and play and with at least a weeks notice. Not everyone hears the announcements during registration, gets the posts, or check schedules. We saw that when we went to Waterworks last time.
Ben - Talk with Scott Sprow about taking Washtenaw Glow to BRATS some Wednesday - He controls their schedule - I will just check their schedule and go play there during their week and enjoy having no responsibilities, until I get home and have to listen to my wife complain about being out even later but it's worth it to get over to Bandemere or any new course and get to play with some players I don't on a regular basis.
Ben Calhoun November 28, 2012 at 4:45pm
B.R.A.T.S is on the table for any Wednesday, if we want to do that, makes a great glow course. Can only do a Wednesday though. If we plan and post a few weeks ahead on here, should be no issue spreading the word.
sheldon bowen November 28, 2012 at 4:41pm
So no water works now?!

The highlight here has been first of all, the Konkols meeting us at the guest house. They came up 3 hours from San Juan Bautista to be here for us as well as to collect the final adoption papers on their two daughters. They are a great couple and we felt like old friends within minutes of meeting. To celebrate their daughters' adoption completion they took us out to eat at a "churrascuria". This is an all you can eat place with a salad bar, pasta bar, soups and mostly meat.
The other high point was the Emmaus meeting on Saturday evening. About 25 or 30 were out at the Independencia assembly to hear about Emmaus. Many had never studied an Emmaus course, so Jim told them the value of the courses for them as well as his vision for promoters in each assembly.
Mike Meier and his wife, Sara, drove in from their place 2 hours away to come to the meeting. He has also started the Emmaus work in their town. The problem with using the courses in Paraguay, according to both the Meiers and the Konkols, is the illiteracy or near-illiteracy of most of the people outside Asuncion. There are 2 languages in Paraguay--Spanish and Guarani. Everyone speaks Guarani as their heart language, but there is no education in it, so no one reads it. Education is all in Spanish, but most people who are already in their 30s or older only have a 4th grade education. Pray that God's Word would go out to these people in anyway possible.
Tomorrow night we head out on another bus for Santa Cruz, Bolivia. Pray for us--an uncomfortable bus for 24 hours! We will be crossing the Chaco Desert of northern Paraguay, apparently a completely desolate area of sand with no towns or even people. We�ve talked to others who have done it and they say it is an "adventure" and and "experience" but is doable. Apparently it is quite dusty, so I�ll be using my shawl over my mouth some of the time.

Bright and cheerful sunflowers can bring a smile to anyone's face, writes Justin Newcombe.
More years ago than I care to remember I managed to transform the unassuming, slightly grungy, semi-industrial back garden of my then student flat (it was flanked on two sides by imposing concrete walls from industrial properties), into a riot of surprise and colour, all achieved with just one packet of sunflower seeds. I was youthful, and at that particular time immersed in some kind of self-inflicted penance, but sunflowers have remained for me both a source of salvation and wonderment, a true sign of summer's potency.
My own personal reminiscences aside, the imposing nature of a stand of sunflowers can bring a smile to the most inhibited of people. It's not just people who like them either, sunflowers are magnets for bees, birds and insects, providing, as they do an abundance of food.
The wild sunflower is native to North America. Native Americans were wise to its nutritional qualities and cultivated the sunflower, domesticating it into a single-headed plant with a variety of seed colours. The dye was used on textiles and for paint. The oil was extracted for cooking and cosmetic use and the dried stalks were used as a building material: not an ounce of waste.
The Spanish introduced the sunflower to Europe around the year 1500 where it became widespread as an ornamental plant. For the next 200-odd years a few entrepreneurial souls played with its oil production possibilities. It was Russia's Peter the Great who really got things cracking, endorsing the commercial growth of sunflowers for their oil.
Sunflowers gained enormous popularity in Russia as one of the few oil foods sanctioned by the Orthodox Church as being admissible during Lent. By the 19th century Russian farmers were growing more than two million acres for both oil extraction and seed consumption.
The authorities invested heavily in research to increase yields and oil content, the result of which was some very large sunflowers.
To this day Giant Russian sunflowers are known for their huge heads and very tall stalks. Eventually, probably via Russian immigrants, sunflowers made their way back to North America where they were increasingly hybridised and commercialised.
Growing your own sunflowers is a fun and easy affair. Seeds can be direct-sown or raised in trays. I have done both successfully, although some people claim that the seedlings don't like being transplanted. Small plants will be victimised by slugs, snails and birds so provide some protection until they get established.
Once they get going, sunflowers are pretty hardy - just make sure they get enough water and of course sun. They can be sown, with care, right through early summer.
Sunflowers are great to get kids involved in gardening. Once they've seen them bud up and flower there is the spectacle of birdwatching as the heads give way to seed.
Saving the seed for human consumption is another option although hulling methods on a non-commercial scale have eluded me. One technique I came across was called the "chew and spit" method where you put the whole thing in your mouth and do your own hulling; I guess it might be quite a good substitute if you were trying to give up smoking.
You could try roasting them or buying some special device, or you could just feed them to the birds who love them whole and untouched.

DNase agar can be used to differentiate between potentially pathogenic S. aureus and other Staphlococcus by looking for the presense of the exoenzyeme DNase. After growth for 24-48 hrs 1N HCL is added to the agar plate. Addition of HCL precipitates DNA in the media causing cloudiness unless the DNA has been hydrolyzed creating a clear zone around the growing colony.
A). Staphlococcus aureus (coagulase +): zone of clearing around the growth after addition of 1N HCL indicating the DNA in the agar has been hydrolyzed. Note: the yellow color of the streak.
B). Staphlococcus epidermidis: growth with no zone of clearing
C). Staphlococcus saprophyticus: growth with no zone of clearing

JP Morgan Fights Unemployment in the Bronx
The nation's largest bank — JP Morgan Chase — is investing $20 million in New York State to fight unemployment.
The money will be used to fund job training in growth sectors like healthcare, information technology, sales, hospitality, office and administration, and transportation and warehousing.
Bruce McNamer, the bank's head of global philanthropy, says the investment in New York is part of a $250 million global initiative to address the so-called "skills gap."
"You have simultaneously high unemployment and jobs going unfilled," he said.
In New York, the initiative will start in the Bronx, the only county in the state with an unemployment rate above 10 percent. While the program will run statewide, it will focus on areas with high unemployment, including Brooklyn, Lewis and Jefferson counties.
JP Morgan is working with the de Blasio and Cuomo administrations on the effort.
