About Me Developer
I bought the book after few of my friends recommended it for OCP exam preparation. I enjoyed reading the book, perfectly written for database developers. Topics like collections, extproc, securefiles, and result caching are quite well explained and demonstrated. The syllabus and content matches exactly what is required for 1Z0-146 exam. The author has peculiar way of explaining which one might feel of less provoking but from technical perspective, it comes out to be great (which is what I needed). I am happy to have this book, not only as guide but someone where I can also look upon to refer basics of an advanced feature. For sure, I recommend the book to all aspirants.

To be fair, there hasn't been all that much activity since the inception of the Sempron line in June 2004, which was segmented into Socket A and Socket 754 products. The Socket A variants are based on the older K7 architecture, topping out at 3000+ and have faded into relative obsolescence.
On the other hand, the Socket 754 variants are based on the K8 architecture, eschewing some of the less important features of their full-blooded Athlon64 brothers, namely x64, Cool 'n Quiet and dual-channel memory support. This was accompanied by a decrease in L2 cache size - straight from the Duron and Celeron playbook. The cache reduction (to 256KB) noticeably decreased performance, since the K8 architecture's integrated memory controller simply cannot reduce memory access latency to that of L2 cache SRAM levels. However, they remained extremely competitive products especially in the hands of enthusiasts, who often overclocked them to make up for the smaller cache size.
In April 2005, the Sempron 3300+ was launched based on the Palermo core. It was manufactured on AMD's new 90nm process and featured all the enhancements that made it into the Athlon64 Venice core - SSE3 support, memory controller enhancements and a lower operating voltage. So we now have a Sempron that runs cooler, finally supports the full feature-set of the Athlon64 and should be easier to overclock due to more core voltage headroom and a higher multiplier.
Heaven on earth? Unfortunately, no. The Sempron 3300+'s L2 cache was further reduced to 128KB. While non-cache intensive applications ran just fine, cache sensitive applications such as games suffered severely. Increasing clockspeed failed to improve performance, indicating that at least 256KB of L2 cache is required by the K8 architecture to function well.
The Sempron 3400+ effectively remedies this dilemma. Let's now introduce this new Socket 754 contender.

Canada's senior men's basketball camp got rolling on Sunday and the mood was a mix of optimism, excitement and sober realism.
It is well known that there has never been as much hoops talent to choose from and that the future is bright for a country that has not played at the Olympics since 2000.
But it is also apparent that clearing all of the hurdles to get everyone in one place, then getting everyone the experience necessary to compete on the national stage remains a long-term process.
"That's what this summer is about," head coach Jay Triano said at the ACC, where the team is gathered through Tuesday, before flying to Venice. Canada will play 11 exhibition games in four countries over the next few weeks and Triano intends to platoon his charges because of the heavy workload.
"I know last year we were a little bit disappointed that we didn't qualify for the (World Cup in Spain), but at the same time we knew we had 22- and 23-year-old players as our best pla

Citigroup Raises CheckFree to Buy
Citigroup upgraded CheckFree (CKFR ) to buy from hold.
Analyst Tony Wible says he's maintaining his $1.43 fiscal year 2005 (June) and $1.67 fiscal year 2006 earnings per share estimates and $44 price target for CheckFree, but with an estimated total return of 28%, a buy rating is now appropriate. He says the recent share decline and valuation reflect an overly pessimistic view of the company's ability to effectively manage the 2006 Transpoint contract expiration.
While the impact of the loss of high-margin revenues from the contract will weigh on CheckFree's revenue and EPS growth, Wible expects that CheckFree will manage through these issues with minimal impact, aided by the company's share gains at Wells and reduced spending levels.

We have studied how perceived gloss varies with the change of both mesoscale and microscale roughness on 3D surface textures. The mesoscale roughness was changed by varying the roll-off factor (β) of 1/fβ fractal noise surfaces. The microscale roughness was changed by varying the microscale roughness parameter α in the microfacet reflection model. An HDR real-world environment map was used to provide complex illumination and a physically- based path tracer was used for rendering the stimuli. Each simulated surface was rotated about its vertical axis to generate an animated stimulus. Eight observers took part in a 2AFC experiment, and the results were tested against conjoint measurement models. We found that the perceived gloss changes non-monotonically with β (an asymmetric bell curve), and monotonically with α. Although both β and α significantly affect perceived gloss, the additive model is inadequate to describe their interactive and nonlinear influence, which is at variance with previous results [1].

Has anyone had a problem with the passenger seat creaking only when someone is seating in it. When someone sits in the passenger seat and there body weight shifts around in the seat it makes a loud and annoying creaking or popping sound. I looked at the seat yesterday and was applying pressure by hand to all parts of the seat and I got it to replicate pushing on the seat where your left thigh would rest. I have already fixed 2 rattles myself can't seem to get this one.
Re: Passenger seat creaking when someone is sitting in it
I am having the same issue. Please let us know if anybody has fixed this one.

|Danny Ainge on Big Show: Shaq can't give us 12 minutes right now
|04.28.11 at 5:17 pm ET
Shaquille O'Neal will try to practice on Friday and the Celtics haven't given up hope that he will be able to come back from his Achilles injury before the playoffs are over, but they also don't want to put him in a position to play him before he's ready.
"Right now he could not give us 12 minutes," Celtics president Danny Ainge said on The Big Show Thursday afternoon. "We want Shaq healthy. If Shaq could give us 12 minutes in the first game without jeopardizing the following game he would probably be out there doing that but he's not ready to do that yet."
Ainge said the team was hopeful and that O'Neal was making progress, but they just don't when he'll be able to return.
"I wish I had an answer to that one," Ainge said. "He looks better today. There's progress. We're still hopeful that he'll be ready to play but it's just taking longer to heal, or taking a while to heal and Shaq was determined to play Game 1 of the first playoff series and it's just not been that way. He could probably go out and some thing but I'm not sure he could help much."
Here are some other highlights from the conversation: Read the rest of this entry »
|Celtics and Heat offer interesting matchups
|at 1:40 pm ET
All along the Celtics and Heat figured that they would meet in the playoffs."It wouldn't be right if we didn't go through them," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra told reporters in Miami after his team eliminated Philadelphia on Wednesday.
The Celtics had a similar reaction. "We assumed when they put this team together, at some point if we want to put another banner up then we'll probably have to go through them," Celtics coach Doc Rivers said before the team went through practice on Thursday.
Now that it's upon us expect no small amount of hype to emerge. But when you break through the thicket of noise, the thing that makes this series so compelling from a basketball standpoint are the individual matchups. There are seven members of the 2011 Eastern Conference All-Star team competing in this series and six of them will be matched directly against each other:
Dwyane Wade vs. Ray Allen
Chris Bosh vs. Kevin Garnett
Expect the Celtics to approach their defensive assignments in a straightforward manner.
"The numbers bare out when we guard our own guys we're pretty good and when we guard other guys we're pretty bad, against this team in particular," Rivers said. "They may look good on paper and they look good visually for two minutes, statistically they've been horrendous for us."
Rivers was referring directly to the fullcourt defense Rajon Rondo employed against James in the Celtics 85-82 win back in February. While Rondo's gambit stirred the Garden crowd and provided some inspirational moments, once the postgame fog of exuberance gave way to sober analysis, the matchup did more harm than good for the Celtics.
But Rondo is the wild card in this series because asking Mike Bibby or Mario Chalmers to stay with him for 48 minutes may be asking too much. That could mean Wade or James switching their assignments to try to contain Rondo. "We'll see one of those guys guarding Rondo, which means one of them aren't guarding Ray or Paul, so we're good with all those," Rivers said.
One thing the Celtics want to avoid are having to rely on double-teams or switches, but that's easier said than done against this team.
"Every time we've overhelped in any series, including the New York series, we tend to hurt ourselves more than just playing our solid one-on-one defense with support," Rivers said. "They run some stuff that's honestly difficult to not switch, but we really try to avoid the switch as much as possible."
Beyond the starters, Delonte West and Jeff Green will be asked to provide support.
"Jeff is going to have to be a great defender," Rivers said. "He ran into that in the New York series where by the end of the series he was terrific on Carmelo [Anthony. That's gives us another big, athletic body." Asked if Green could help with Wade, Rivers said, "We may do it in stretches, but you're asking for trouble in the long run."
The plan is for Shaquille O'Neal to participate in the walkthrough segment of Thursday's practice and then try to get on the floor for for the full session on Friday. The Celtics will fly to Miami on Saturday so Friday will be the last chance for O'Neal to get on the floor before Sunday's Game 1.
The Celtics know the hype will approach histrionic levels throughout the series, but they also know this is ultimately just one step in a larger process.
"It's the second round," Paul Pierce said. "It's the halfway point of where our goal is. I know there's going to be a lot of hype around it, like it's a championship series, but you've got to understand it's still just the second round. But a very big second round [series] because you've got two potential teams that can win it all. I'm excited. This is a great stage for basketball. It's going to be great for fans and the guys that we have here love these type of series."
Pierce has faced James two other times in the playoffs and the Celtics have won both series. In 2008 they beat the Cavaliers in a seven-game epic that featured brilliant Game 7 performances for both players. James scored 45 points in the 97-92 Celtics win, while Pierce went for 41 of his own. James got the better of Pierce in their individual matchup last season, but the Celtics won in six games.
Asked if it was personal for James to finally get past the Celtics, Pierce said, "Probably so at this point. When you lose to a team consecutive times in the playoffs — I mean, it would be personal for me. I'm sure he's going to take it personal and you've got to expect his best."

|Glen Davis: 'We're way deeper than [Miami]'
|at 1:43 pm ET
As the Celtics returned to practice on Wednesday they still don't know who their next playoff opponent will be, but that gives them a chance to focus on what has been their toughest adversary at times this season: themselves.
"I've told you all year our opponent has been us, so we get a chance to work on our stuff," Doc Rivers said. "[This week is] very similar to training camp. When you start camp you really don't have an opponent."
That said, they clearly have an eye on Miami, who has a chance to close out its first round playoff series with Philadelphia on Wednesday night. As long as there's not a Game 7 in that series, the Celtics will be in Miami for Game 1 on Sunday.
In the interim, their focus will be on what they do, especially their reserves. Glen Davis, for one, isn't lacking any confidence.
"I feel like our bench is way stronger than theirs," Davis said. "We're way deeper than them. We just have to make sure we use our depth."
The Heat have primarily used three reserves in their first round series with Philadelphia — Joel Anthony, Mario Chalmers and James Jones — but they may get a boost if Udonis Haslem is able to return from foot surgery that has kept him out since late November. An ineffective Mike Miller has fallen out of the rotation.
The Celtics may be deeper on paper, but their second unit didn't exactly distinguish itself in their series with the Knicks except for a strong showing in the first half of Game 4. Rivers feels like he has gained some insight from that series, however.
"We knew what the starters could do," Rivers said. "We weren't sure what the fifth guy with the starters could do and you had no idea going into a playoff series what your bench, not only what they were going to give you, but what worked for them. As the playoffs went on we kind of figured out more and more what they're comfortable with, what they can't run more than what they can run."
Despite their struggles, Rivers was encouraged by some of what he saw in New York, particularly on the block. "The one thing they do well is post," Rivers said. "That second group is a great post group. Jeff Green, Delonte [West] and Baby, so we have to try to run a package more suited to them."
The Celtics don't incorporate a lot of post-ups in their offense, mainly because they haven't had a reliable presence on the block since Shaquille O'Neal got hurt. Green got more work on the block in New York and for a second unit that sometimes struggled to run a functioning offense that would be a positive development.
Rivers also hinted at a bigger role for Green in the next round. "The other fifth guy [with the starters] is Jeff Green," Rivers said. "That may be our biggest plus of all the groups, but we just haven't used it a lot."
SHAQ UPDATE: O'Neal didn't practice on Wednesday and he won't practice Thursday either. The Celtics are targeting Friday as a possible date, but as with all things Shaq, that is subject to change. "We hope he practices [Friday]," Rivers said. "But we don't know that. We'll see."
Everyone else was on the floor at the start of practice, which was closed to the press.
STAYING IN RHYTHM: Everyone knows the Celtics play better with rest, but is there such a thing as too much? Assuming they play again on Sunday that would be a full week between games for the Celtics. They were 1-3 in the playoffs last season with three or more days between games.
"There's nothing you can do about it," Rivers said. "It's not like we can say, 'Hey listen we want to start now,' so let's take advantage of what we have."
Rivers called this week a mini training camp, but there's no doubt they don't want to stray too far from what made them successful against the Knicks, especially the last two games offensively. "When we run our stuff right defensively and offensively we tend to not turn the ball over and we tend to rebound better," Rivers said.
RUN RONDO RUN: While no one would come out and say it before the series becomes official, Rajon Rondo will be one of the most scrutinized players in a showdown series with the Heat. He is the one obvious advantage the Celtics have from a personnel standpoint. He showed in the Knicks series that he can kick it up a gear and play with the kind of speed the Celtics need from him.
"It's night and day when you see it," Ray Allen said. "When he's out there and he's going and he's got the energy, he doesn't care whether you make a shot or not, he's still having an impact on both ends of the floor. He's on us about running the floor. I'm thinking I'm running, but let me run a little bit harder."
Still, the Celtics emphasized that all four of their star players are tied together.
"Rondo's key for us but all of them are," Rivers said. "If Rondo's playing well and Ray is not playing well then we struggle. If Ray is playing well and Paul [Pierce] or Kevin [Garnett] struggle then we struggle. It's not just one guy. This really is a team that is pretty much tied together and each guy has to carry his own load."
|Jon Barry on Celtics winning Eastern Conference: 'I think they will'
|03.31.11 at 11:25 am ET
Appearing on the Dennis & Callahan Show, ESPN NBA analyst Jon Barry said despite the Celtics' recent struggles, he still believes they will win the Eastern Conference when it's all said and done. (To listen to the entire interview, click here.)
"I don't put a lot of stock what happens at the end of the regular season," Barry said. "Last year the Lakers lost 7 of 10 and went on to win the thing. Boston was 27-27 their last 54 and got to the Finals in the seventh game. So I wouldn't read too much into this. But I'm a bit concerned because I really thought they were the best team with Kendrick Perkins on their roster. Now I think they let the pack in a little bit closer to them. I still think they can win the East and I think they will, but I think they've brought the other teams back to where they have a better opportunity to beat them.
"I like their experience," Barry added. "I think Chicago has had a tremendous year but this is a team that hasn't gone past the first round. The Miami Heat I think still aren't ready to do it, come playoff time they're not built for playoff basketball. I do believe the Celtics will come back and circle the wagons and be ready to go and be the team to beat in the East."
Barry explained that he was taken aback at how much trading Perkins away has affected the Celtics.
"I'm a bit surprised," the analyst said. "This was the No. 1 team in the Eastern Conference with Kendrick Perkins playing 12 games. The impact that he's made on the floor obviously hasn't been that big and they've played through it. I'm a bit surprised that they're losing games. They haven't been able to score. Their execution late in games has been poor. It's kind of been there bugaboo the last few years."
Some of the other topics touched on by Barry …
The Celtics recent struggles: "Obviously, since the Kendrick trade this team has not played well. [Rajon] Rondo in particular has not played well. We know how close he was with Kendrick Perkins. I know he has a pinky issue. There's been no bones about it that these guys are unhappy that Kendrick's left. Doc Rivers has felt the same way and they got to find a way to crank it back up here as we get started her in couple weeks for the real season."
|Fast Break: Celtics beat the Heat
|11.11.10 at 11:15 pm ET
This was a game the Celtics were supposed to lose. Charles Barkley suggested on the TNT pregame show that the Heat would win in a blowout and, honestly, the Chuckster's call made a lot of sense. This was a statement game for the Heat after losing to Utah and absorbing 48 hours of unrelenting criticism. This was the game that Chris Bosh either stood up for himself or became further emasculated.
The Celtics? Regular season games don't mean anything to them. They're too old, experienced and savvy for that kind of noise.
Um, no.
The Celtics didn't just beat the Heat Thursday night, 112-107, they embarrassed them. While Ray Allen was knocking down 3's at a staggering rate, Pat Riley could be seen jotting down notes in red ink like a professor grading papers. When Rajon Rondo drove to the basket, Bosh sat and watched while Rondo threw down a monster slam.
Veteran's presence: In the first half, Allen, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett shot a combined 16-for-21 for the Celtics. Their Miami counterparts — LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Bosh — were 9-for-22. Wade was an unsightly 0-for-6. The Celtics veterans came to play and while they didn't win all of their individual matchups (James was spectacular) they got the better of two of them handily and Pierce gave James all he wanted.
Ray-Ray for the 3: There are so many things the Celtics did right in this game, that's it's hard to focus on a few specific things, but if Allen is making 7-of-9 3-pointers, they are practically impossible to beat.
Ball movement: And how did Allen get so open, so often? Passing. The Celtics are the most unselfish team in the league in ways that go way beyond Rondo's assists. They simply trust each other and that was a huge difference in this game.
Center concerns: Jermaine O'Neal told reporters in Miami that he was going to seek a second opinion on his injured left knee. That's not good news at all for the Celtics, because despite O'Neal's slow start, the Celtics need big bodies until Kendrick Perkins returns. Shaquille O'Neal played just 19 minutes and that's the most the Celtics can expect from him right now. They may need another big and they may need one soon.
Free throw shooting: Here's your fun NBA conspiracy fact of the night. The Celtics took 25 free throws. LeBron had 22 all by himself. The good news is the Celtics played through the discrepancy. The bad news is they made just 68 percent from the line.
Rather than try to come up with a third thing, let's all enjoy the Rondo dunk over Bosh, courtesy of the incomparable Jose3030
|NBA Power Rankings, 10/21
|10.21.10 at 4:50 pm ET
1. LA Lakers: So, Ron Artest was on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night. I knew he was crazy, but I guess I didn't know he was that crazy. How long can he go without creating a distraction? It worked last year, but there's a shelf life for these things. Still, they're the two-time defending NBA champions, and they have "length," which doesn't sound right, but size matters in this league.
2. Boston: The Celtics finished the preseason with a 7-1 record, proving they can turn on the "all systems go" button, even when the games don't matter. That's a scary thought when wins and losses start to mean something. I'm a little skeptical about how the C's will integrate Shaquille O'Neal on both ends of the court, but the depth on this team is the league's best.
3. Miami: Injuries continue to pile up for the Heat: Dwyane Wade (hamstring), LeBron James (hamstring), Mike Miller (thumb), Mario Chalmers (ankle) and Eddie House (shoulder). The 2007-08 Celtics used the preseason to jell; this team will have to do it in the regular season. I'm being careful not to be a "hater" here, so Eddie House doesn't flip me the bird.
4. Oklahoma City: There are some interesting stories coming out about Jeff Green. He has a "special relationship" with his head coach, whatever that means. According to Etan Thomas, he's an underappreciated player in the league. Just another one of the Thunder's young guns.
5. Orlando: Wait a second, it's a contract year for Vince Carter? So, that's why he's trying again — and knocking down 61 percent of his shots (59 percent from 3-point range) this preseason. Combine a motivated Vince, a healthy Jameer Nelson and a Hakeem Olajuwon-inspired Dwight Howard, and you've got a recipe for success.

Breaking Down The David Booth Trade
Panthers general manager Dale Tallon wanted to ditch a big, long-term contract commitment and give his team an early jolt.
Canucks GM Mike Gillis sought to get younger and quicker while adding another proven scorer to his already explosive offense. So the two men worked out a semi-blockbuster.
The Panthers sent left wing David Booth, center Steve Reinprecht and a third-round pick in 2013 to the Canucks on Saturday in exchange for veteran forwards Mikael Samuelsson and Marco Sturm.
Samuelsson and Sturm are in the final years of their contract. Both should bolster the Florida supporting cast for the rest of this season as the Panthers try to get back into the playoff hunt.
"Samuelsson won a Cup in Detroit and is coming off back-to-back 50-point seasons," Tallon said. "He's a real useful player. He can play the point on the power play and has size and a big shot that we sorely need. Sturm gives us a player that can kill penalties. He's scored 20 or more goals seven times in his career, and it just gives us more options and more depth in the organization."
Booth, who makes $4.25 million per season, has three additional years left on his contract. He is a former 31-goal scorer who has seeming made a full recovery from post-concussion syndrome that limited him to 28 games (and 16 points) in 2009-10.
Last season he played all 82 games last season, scoring 23 goals and adding 40 assists. He took a career-high 280 shots but converted on just 8.2 percent, down from 12.6 percent in 2008-09. That volume suggests that a return to 30 goals is quite doable in the right environment.
That's the good news. The bad news: Booth recorded a minus-31 rating last season and was minus-6 thus far this season, with just one assist.
Separated from long-time running mate Stephen Weiss, Booth appeared lost this season in the revamped Florida lineup. In Vancouver he figures to find himself playing with old junior hockey running mate Ryan Kesler.
"Ryan knows him very well," Gillis told reporters. "He's scored over 30 goals in the league before and he's 26 years old. We think if we can get him here and get him moving in the right direction he'll embrace it."
Gillis is confident that Booth's concussion problems are behind him. He sees him as a speedy finisher just entering his athletic prime.
Reinprecht, 35, does not share that distinction. The veteran center was just a throw-in on this deal. He didn't make Florida's roster during training camp. He cleared waivers and went to San Antonio of the AHL.
Gillis agreed to eat Reinprecht's contract to land Booth. All in all it was a interesting gamble for a Stanley Cup contender to take.
If it works, it could work big. But is Booth never regains his 30-goal touch, the Canucks could live to regret taking on his contract.

I had to post my Yelp review on this hidden gem Josh and I found today. I have to spread the news because this is big news (at least for us, anyways). We finally found the place to get our ramen fix in the South! This is amazing because Asian food here has become rather generic and unfortunate. Every Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese, or Chinese restaurant we've been to in Charleston has either been a overly priced fusion sushi restaurant or a ugly combination of all Asian food—as if these four different and very diverse cultures had the same generic dishes just because we all love rice. It's sad because the South isn't too open when it comes to diversity in food. Don't get me wrong—they have GREAT food in the South when it comes to Southern dishes and magnificent steakhouses (they even have fantastic seafood… Fish Restaurant in Downtown is a lovely, delicious place with beautiful décor, and FIG [Food is Good] Restaurant is one the best places I've ever eaten when it comes to fresh, local ingredients)—but when it comes to Asian food, the South does not do it right. That's why I was so excited when we found Kanpai, a Japanese restaurant that's a ramen shop and sushi place. We fell in love with it!
"As a Californian native, once I moved to Charleston (because of the Navy!) I thought it would be really, really difficult to find a great tasting ramen shop in the South… Luckily, I was wrong!
My husband and I had the chicken kaagare appetizer, which was delightful but not necessarily the best. My favorite chicken kaagare is still at Hakata Ramen in Los Angeles, California, but this chicken kaagare was good! Better than the other Japanese restaurants I dined at in Charleston.
I had the miso ramen and my husband had the tonkotsu ramen. What I love about tonkotsu ramen is all the preparation and love that's put into making this beautiful broth; it literally takes 60 hours to make it. Both soups were very delectable and delicious! I loved the miso ramen and it had that salty, warm bite I was craving for. I was happy to see that the Post and Courier did a feature on this fantastic and quasi-authentic Japanese restaurant.
We're planning to come back and try the sushi too. I have nothing but good reviews for this great restaurant, and I hope more people try their food too! Honestly, what I love about this restaurant is that it's very true to Japanese food, more so than the other fusion Japanese restaurants we've tried in Charleston. It reminds me of home so much, and I'm so happy to have found this gem!"
via Yelp.
Please check out this wonderful restaurant. You won't regret it!

Starting Position: Lie on your stomach on an exercise mat or floor with your hands positioned directly under your shoulders and fingers facing forward. Legs should be straight and toes pointed.
Upward Phase: Gently exhale. Engage your abdominal/core muscles to support the spine. Press your hips into the mat or floor. Lengthen the torso and curl your chest away from the ground while keeping your hips stable. Keep the shoulders rolling down and back. Hold this position for 15 - 30 seconds.
Downward Phase: Gently lower your upper body back to the mat or floor, lengthening the spine as you descend.
If you experience any pain in the low back with this movement, stop the exercise immediately and consult with your doctor.As the length of arms differ, individuals may often lift their hips off the mat or floor as they fully extend their arms. In this case, limit the extension in your arms to keep the hips on the mat.

The first major candidate visit of the 2012 presidential season is about to take place in South Carolina … home to the hard-hitting "First in the South" presidential primary contest that has accurately predicted the GOP presidential nominee in every election since 1980.
Former Alaska governor and GOP vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin, frequently rumored as a possible 2012 candidate, will visit Columbia, S.C. this week to sign copies of her new book America by Heart. Palin's trip – her first to the Palmetto state since she endorsed S.C. Gov.-elect Nikki Haley back in May – will take place at 6:00 p.m. on Friday at the Books-A-Million store located in the Village at Sandhill, an outdoor mall in Northeast Columbia.
The new reality TV star's book tour is also taking her to Iowa, another critical early voting state.
Palin's visit comes as many within her own party are beginning to question her qualifications – and her ability to win in 2012.
For example, cable television host (and former Republican Congressman) Joe Scarborough blasted Palin this week, saying that her resume "makes the political biography of Barack Obama look more like Winston Churchill's."
"Republicans have a problem," Scarborough wrote in a column published Tuesday in The Politico. "The most-talked-about figure in the GOP is a reality show star who cannot be elected. And yet the same leaders who fret that Sarah Palin could devastate their party in 2012 are too scared to say in public what they all complain about in private."
Scarborough's "cannot be elected" comment is in reference to a recent poll that showed Palin trailing U.S. President Barack Obama in a hypothetical 2012 match-up.
As with all of the other 2012 aspirants, we are keeping an open mind with regard to Palin's candidacy.
Unlike Mitt Romney (who has previously supported socialized medicine plans), Mike Huckabee (who we view as suspect on fiscal issues) or Newt Gingrich (who betrayed the last "Republican Revolution"), Palin is a comparatively blank slate. All we really know about her is that she quit her job as governor to begin the process of positioning herself for a presidential bid.
Anyway, should Palin choose to run we certainly hope she will promote sound, specific fiscal policy with the same enthusiasm that she promotes herself … although we've been substantially less than impressed with Palin after the initial allure of her groundbreaking vice-presidential candidacy wore off.

your way back to the railroad. But I was a little puzzled (considering that you had
your veil down on both those occasions, and your veil down also when we were in
the Gardens) at his recognizing you. I doubted his remembering your figure in a
summer dress after he had only seen it in a winter dress; and though we were
talking when he met us, and your voice is one among your many charms, I
doubted his remembering your voice, either. And yet I felt persuaded that he
knew you. 'How?' you will ask. My dear, as ill-luck would have it, we were
speaking at the time of young Armadale. I firmly believe that the name was the
first thing that struck him; and when he heard that, your voice certainly and your
figure perhaps, came back to his memory. 'And what if it did?' you may say.
Think again, Lydia, and tell me whether the parson of the place where Mrs.
Armadale lived was not likely to be Mrs. Armadale's friend? If he was her friend,
the very first person to whom she would apply for advice after the manner in
which you frightened her, and after what you most injudiciously said on the
subject of appealing to her son, would be the clergyman of the parish--and the
magistrate, too, as the landlord at the inn himself told you.
"You will now understand why I left you in that extremely uncivil manner, and I
may go on to what happened next.
"I followed the old gentleman till he turned into a quiet street, and then accosted
him, with respect for the Church written (I flatter myself) in every line of my face.
"'Will you excuse me,' I said, 'if I venture to inquire, sir, whether you recognized
the lady who was walking with me when you happened to pass us in the
"'Will you excuse my asking, ma'am, why you put that question?' was all the
answer I got.
"'I will endeavor to tell you, sir,' I said. 'If my friend is not an absolute stranger to
you, I should wish to request your attention to a very delicate subject, connected
with a lady deceased, and with her son who survives her.'
"He was staggered; I could see that. But he was sly enough at the same time to
hold his tongue and wait till I said something more.
"'If I am wrong, sir, in thinking that you recognized my friend,' I went on, 'I beg to
apologize. But I could hardly suppose it possible that a gentleman in your
profession would follow a lady home who was a total stranger to him.'
"There I had him. He colored up (fancy that, at his age!), and owned the truth, in
defense of his own precious character.
"'I have met with the lady once before, and I acknowledge that I recognized her in
the Gardens,' he said. 'You will excuse me if I decline entering into the question
of whether I did or did not purposely follow her home. If you wish to be assured
that your friend is not an absolute stranger to me, you now have that assurance;
and if you have anything particular to say to me, I leave you to decide whether the
time has come to say it.'
"He waited, and looked about. I waited, and looked about. He said the street was
hardly a fit place to speak of a delicate subject in. I said the street was hardly a fit
place to speak of a delicate subject in. He didn't offer to take me to where he
lived. I didn't offer to take him to where I lived. Have you ever seen two strange

Tiny Speaks Out on Arrest
Tameka "Tiny" Cottle is speaking out to fans regarding her and hubby T.I.'s recent arrest for possession of a controlled substance. The 32-year-old took to her Twitter page to comment on the occurrence, which landed her behind bars on Sept. 1. "Jus wanted 2say thank u 2every1 dats been leaving encouraging msgs & prayers!" she wrote. "We love u guys:) going 2bed now! So glad 2b n a nice clean bed$."
As previously reported Tiny and T.I. were pulled over in Hollywood Wednesday night after making an illegal U-turn on Sunset Boulevard. Police searched their vehicle and arrested the twosome for suspicion of possession of what is believed to have been ecstasy pills. Although the couple were released after posting $10,000 bail this latest arrest may prove to be more detrimental to T.I. than his wife. The Atlanta native was released from federal prison late last year after serving seven months behind bars, and is currently on probation. Since drug possession is a direct violation of his probation, this latest legal hiccup could land him right back behind bars. "We're not making any observations at this time," Tip's attorney Ed Garland said in an interview. "This is an unfortunate occurrence, and we do not know what the outcome will be."
Tip was arrested back in 2007 for purchasing machine guns and silencers in the parking lot of an Atlanta shopping center. He was sentenced to 366 days in an Arkansas prison, but was released early to a halfway house, due to good behavior. Since the event, T.I. publicly pledged to change his life around, and toured around the country discouraging young people from following in his footsteps.

On Friday the 17th of August, tens of employees of "Kuwait Ports Authority" have protested for their salaries. The majority of those protesting were of the Bedoon and few were Gulf citizens who have suffered from the same problem in the past months. The employees showed their objection to the way the establishment keeps delaying their salaries, pay them in cash, and refuse to pay them regularly through their bank accounts. The establishment has been criticized throughout this year for letting go of Bedoon employees for no reasons and for practicing such acts intentionally before firing another group of Bedoon.
On another side, the ministry of defense is still firing Bedoon soldiers who have been working for the army for over 27 years. The ministry has forced those soldiers to get foreign passports years ago by giving them money and informing them that without foreign passports they will lost their jobs.

The eight newest student residential facilities—buildings from the recent $245 million Residential Revival—have earned Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification from the U.S. Green Building Certification Institute.
President Michael Driscoll (left) and Tim Rupert, president of the Foundation for IUP Board of Directors
Highly prized, LEED certification recognizes buildings that meet U.S. Green Building Certification Institute standards for buildings and building design that improve energy savings, water efficiency, and outdoor environmental quality; reduce carbon dioxide emissions; and reflect innovative design.
The buildings are owned by the Foundation for IUP, a nonprofit entity that promotes and supports the educational purposes of IUP and is managed by the university.
Tim Rupert, president of the foundation board of directors, presented the official certification to President Michael Driscoll at a ceremony on September 8.
"We are very proud of this certification and appreciate our strong partnership with the Foundation for IUP as the owner of these buildings," Driscoll said.
"Being energy efficient is a win for all involved—our university, our community, and our students—and demonstrates our commitment to being good stewards of energy resources."
IUP and the Foundation for IUP completed the final phase of the Residential Revival in fall 2010. Construction on the Residential Revival buildings began in 2006. The new buildings include Andrew W. Stephenson Hall, Susan S. Delaney Hall, Donna D. Putt Hall, Gealy W. Wallwork Hall, MG Rodney D. Ruddock Hall, the Suites on Maple East, the Suites on Pratt, and the Northern Suites. A total of 3,900 students live in these buildings.
The Residential Revival buildings integrate a "living-learning" philosophy into their design. All of the new buildings reflect a special academic or co-curricular theme, most with clusters or floors for students with common interests or majoring in specific disciplines.

Adam did pass a 180 class due to lack of light for the camera and is now in Kansas hunting. That 180" bucks days are numbered if Adam gets back on him. He is a true monster killing machine and does it all on video by himself. Just an amazing trophy hunter.
Yeah he does kill some monster for sure, i would love to know how the heck you find a 200 incher every year!

It's a combination of small suburban parcels with great genetics. Poaching is much tougher when the deer lives close to a residential neighborhood and deer put the age on they need to get that big. I've never hunted any of Adam's properties but I'd be willing to say they are similar to what I've described. It's funny how a lot of us leave the city to go hunt the deer and he's doing the opposite...something to think about!
BTW I haven't heard of him knocking down a deer in Ohio this year but could be wrong...
Would any of you pass up a 180 inch typical, because you couldnt get it on camera? Are you kidding me?
To each their own. Not the first time he has passed up 180's..... he still work for ESPN/Tom Miranda? The key is the location and I mean "location" not just Ohio. I hope he connects when he gets back, nice fella.
Adam defiantly kills some monsters!!!!
Adam is an awesome hunter, very smart and very selective and he knows if the goal is 200" then you have to show restraint.
If he did get a 200" this year, good for him. On TV he appears to be an awesome guy who just loves to hunt giant whitetails.
