Best Fiends Forever
You think you know some scary people, but you havent met Screwtape. He and his nasty nephew -- both demons in the literal sense -- are out to get our hero, a fellow known only as The Patient, in Jeffrey Finske and Max McLeans funny, supersnarky translation of C.S. Lewiss epistolary novel The Screwtape Letters. Both are about spiritual warfare as seen from a demon's point of view, but the theatrical adaptation -- starring McLean as Screwtape, and having wowed audiences in New York, Washington, D.C., and Chicago -- is doing for demonic possession in the theater what Paranormal Activity is doing for cinema fans this Halloween season.
Screwtape and company, brought here by the Fellowship for the Performing Arts and Aruba Productions, will haunt Herberger Theater Center for four performances Friday, October 30, through Sunday, November 1.
Fri., Oct. 30, 8 p.m.; Sat., Oct. 31, 4 & 8 p.m.; Sun., Nov. 1, 3 p.m., 2009

TISM LyricsOf a 6-lane German autobahn
The opening of the first 8 lane fly-over
Was my old father's favourite yarn
I'd knew that I'd be, sooner or later
The famous Mordialloc Road duplicator.
From lower Springvale to the Frankston Freeway
Until you get to that bitumen stain
That runs between two road highways,
Happy people trapped in its invidious single lane.
If you're behind a truck or freighter
Say, "Thank god for the Mordialloc Road duplicator".
So I work for the RCA
I got big bulldozers and earth shifters
I dig all those cut away slopes
With 700 tonne capacity lifters
If you're interested in roadworks, see me later
I'm the Mordialloc Road duplicator
One day all the way to Portsea
It'll be all big divided freeways
There'll be turn offs to Tootgarook
Cranbourne, Frankston and Five Ways
The whole peninsula will be my crater
I'm the Mordialloc Road duplicator.
All you people on Christmas vacation
Here is the reason for jubilation:
There ain't no better road works in the nation
Than the Mordialloc Road duplication.

Lawmaker fears tribal casino pact could stiff neighboring towns
A Lakeville lawmaker is raising concerns that a new pact for a proposed tribal casino in Taunton could drastically slash surrounding towns' cut of the potential windfall.
State Rep. Keiko Orall, a Lakeville Republican, told the state gaming board today that she's worried a new deal being hashed out between Gov. Deval Patrick and the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe could leave little for Lakeville, Middleboro and Berkeley. A deal that would have given the state a 21 percent cut of the Taunton casino cash was rejected by the federal government as too rich.

Zach Braff's 'Wish I Was Here' trailer tugs at heartstrings
The trailer for Zach Braff's latest film, "Wish I Was Here,'' has racked up almost a million views in 24 hours and the nearly two minute clip pulls at heartstrings like a harpist on steroids.
Any Millennial who swooned over Andrew Largeman's floating-through-space character in 2004's "Garden State'' (also written, directed, and starring Braff) will likely cling to the mid-life crisis-fighting Aidan Bloom in Braff's latest directorial work.
More than 46,000 people raised just over $3 million to fund the project via a Kickstarter campaign, with the promise of prizes for their donations of $10 or more. Souvenirs ranged from copies of the film's soundtrack ($10 donation) to a visual effects credit on the finalized film ($9,000 donation).
Braff chose Kickstarter as the platform to fund his project after seeing the success of the "Veronica Mars'' film campaign.
"After I saw the incredible way 'Veronica Mars' fans rallied around Kristen Bell and her show's creator Rob Thomas, I couldn't help but think (like I'm sure so many other independent filmmakers did) maybe there is a new way to finance smaller, personal films that didn't involve signing away all your artistic control,'' he wrote on the site.
You can catch "Wish I Was Here,'' featuring Braff's buddy Donald Faison, Jim Parsons, Mandy Patinkin, Ashley Greene, and Kate Hudson, in theaters July 2.

Your right single quote mark is incorrect. I don't know much about the different kinds of keyboards, mappings, and fonts that you might be encountering, but where you have `1´ in a couple of places, it instead should be `1' With the font I am using I can see a difference in the right single quotes. Stata has a -hexdump- command that lets you see the hexadecimal numbers for each character in a file. I used this command to see that the hex number for what you have entered as a right single quote is "b4". The hex number for the correct right single quote is "27". Maybe someone else can help point you to the correct key (or keyboard sequence) that will give you the correct right single quote for your keyboard/computer setup.

Cable Shrs More Alluring Than Telecom, J.P. Morgan Says
J.P. Morgan analyst Mike McCormack this morning launched coverage of both Comcast (CMCSA) and Time Warner Cable (TWC) with Overweight ratings.
For Comcast, he set a price target of $19 the stock closed yesterday at $15.21. For TIme Warner Cable, which closed yesterday at $35.79, his target is $45.
"Relative to telecom, we favor the cable providers given relatively high growth of key financial and operational metrics as well as less exposure to the maturing an d increasingly competitive wireless industry," he writes in a research note. McCormack adds that "while both cable and telecom face secular pressures for their respective core products, cable subscriber metrics have been more resilient that those for telecom competitors." He contends that the perceived utility of video relative to voice "should allow cable to take a larger share of triple-play subscribers over time."
McCormack also asserts that both CMCSA and TWC should frow free cash flow, aided by low single digit EBITDA growh and diminishing capital intensity. He contends that cash generation should cover current new projects, including migration towards all digial programming and deploying DOCSIS 3.0 for higher bandwidth, while still allowing opportunities to return cash to holders.
Not least, McCormack notes that both CMCSA and TWC trade at a discount to large-cap telecoms on both an EV/EBITDA and price/free cash flow basis, despite expectations for higher growth in both EBITDA and free cash flow.
In today's trading:
- Comcast is off 13 cents, or 0.9%, to $15.08.
- Time Warner Cable is off 9 cents, or 0.3%, to $35.70.

While the first four lectures are missing from the new history course Modern Africa Since 1880 (feed), that's no reason not to jump aboard and catch the rest of the ride.
University of California San Diego (UCSD) historian Jeremy Prestholdt narrates Africa's modern history in a calm and thoughtful manner which makes his indictment of European colonialism and the racial paternalism of the colonial all the more damning.
Here are a few factoids and ideas from lectures 5, 6 and 7:
- Indigenous African religions have worldwide influence, ranging from the Vudun (Voodoo) of Haiti to the charismatic Christianity of the Pentecostals.
- Native Africans didn't have the right to own land in most colonies until after World War II. This was part of a discriminatory system of laws in most African colonies which relegated native Africans to inferior status.
- The late Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie is worshipped as a Messiah figure by the Rastafarians of Jamaica. In the 1930s they were inspired by Haile Selassie's stature as the leader of an independent African nation.
There are not a lot of online history offerings for areas outside of Europe and North America, and this one is well worth checking out.
(Note: most UCSD course podcasts disappear at the end of the academic term (roughly the middle of March). So if you're interested, grab this one while you can.)

My husband, Simon Layfield, who has died aged 49 after a heart attack, was a chartered surveyor and also dedicated to cycling, both as a rider and coach. For six years he was the coach of double Olympic gold medallist Laura Trott.
Simon was an elite category racing cyclist for a number of years and rode track, time trials and road races, as well as enthusiastically working for the reinvigoration of the grass track scene. As a coach he was passionate about enabling other riders to reach their potential, and to this end between 1993 and 2007 he and I created coaching programmes based at the velodrome in Welwyn Garden City.
He was also a superb team manager and mechanic, his meticulous preparation and generosity with time and resources always ensuring that riders in his care had the best possible chance of success. He worked with a number of riders who produced medal-winning performances in national and, later, international competition, including Laura Bissell, the late Peter Bissell, Andy Fenn, Emma Trott and her younger sister, Laura.
Simon was also a lifelong rail enthusiast. As a youngster he helped in the restoration of industrial locomotives and rolling stock. Over the past few years he had renewed his involvement with the Rutland Railway Museum at Cottesmore. With his usual energy and willingness both to get stuck in and to take a lead, Simon was instrumental in the transformation of the site into a centre for the history of the Ironstone quarrying industry in the East Midlands. As Rocks by Rail: The Living Ironstone Museum, this gained accredited museum status. Simon was in negotiations to expand and develop the site.
He was a fellow of the Institute of Revenues Rating and Valuation and the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, a Recognised European Valuer, and a partner in Wilks, Head & Eve in London, where he worked for 25 years.
We were married for 20 years. Simon is survived by me, by his parents, Peter and Joyce, by his sister, Fiona, and by his nieces, Molly and Betsey.

Ticketmaster outlet

College Area

The only way to get good tickets before the scalpers is to buy them as they go on sale. If you've tried to order on the phone and been abandoned on dead-end lines, you've already visited Hell's lowermost depths. It's as unpleasant as standing at a ticket counter with methed-out metalheads waiting for Dead Babies on Toast seats. Few know about this small Ticketmaster outlet near SDSU. Their savvy ticket clerks, fingers flying with wizard skill, can bring up rows of the best available seats and the waiting lines are never long. That may change after everyone reads this.

What's with all the Conti hate?? Are some people really that butthurt and blind about specific brands that they can't be a little more open-minded? For their price point they're really not that bad.

Cacophonous, I'm with ya. Another happy Conti DWS owner here too, but running 16's on a VW Rabbit. I regularly "abuse" the hell out of my car with spirited driving and I can honestly say that these are easily the best tires I've ever had, period. What I like most about them is that they're very predictable when pushed to their limits, and offer surprisingly good wet traction to boot. Little known fact is that many local police departments use this tire too. I can definitely see why after I took my first spin on 'em.
If anyone wants real POS tires for comparison, try a set of Cooper CS4's. Those things hydroplane at the very sight of a puddle on the road. Their sidewalls also have a nasty tendency to flex badly under heavy cornering, leading to boatloads of mushy understeer. It effectively turned my compact hatchback into handling like a '72 Cadillac Deville. Granted it's a "touring" tire built for comfort, but still I wasn't expecting it to be so unsafe for such a premium price!

High Class A Sarasota 1B Yonder Alonso (Reds) homered in the 2009 season opener and doubled in the next game, but he then went seven games without an extra base hit. He's made up for that this week, going .364/.423/.773 (8-for-22) with two home runs and three doubles and 11 RBIs .
Ben Davis, rhp, Sarasota (Reds). Yes you have read that correctly, that's Ben Davis, rhp. The Padres 1995 first-round pick hung up his catcher's mitt last summer, then worked at making a comeback as a pitcher in the Atlantic League. The Reds signed him this offseason, and he's now working on learning the trade as a pitcher, striking out one in one inning in his Sarasota debut. Davis is joined in Sarasota's bullpen by a fellow former big league position player Jerry Gil.
Hopper struckout to begin the Louisville game. Valaika and Rosales followed with singles.
Carolina is off to a good start.
Heisey homered (#4)
Cozart singled
Francisco doubled
Frazier walked
Bases loaded and nobody out.
Now showing a RBI for Parker, not sure how he got it. Probably sac fly.
Sarasota's up 3-0 going to bottom of the 2nd. Gil with two scoreless.
Parker hit a sac fly but the next two batters made outs. 2-0 Carolina in the second inning.
Oscar Castro is off to a nice start: 3 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K
Dayton is scoreless after three innings.
Louisville still down 1-0. Rosales now 2 for 2 with a double.
Rosales with a double and he's 2 for 2 and now hitting .431.

Notes from an "alternate universe". Introduction to a new way of thinking.

Jesse Sovoda

You'd be perceiving an inferential experience?
I think that that inference is made by our intent and is subject to the logic in the system by which we perceive. We are basically choosing what we experience at all times. It's just that on the most basic level we (as we currently can perceive our sense of self) do not exist. Am I off?
Jesse Sovoda
No intent is needed.
If we experience what is most relative (or seem to) then what choice is there?
You'd be choosing something that not only all ready exists but does not really exist.
This is a longer discussion, as it gets into questions like "what about decisions?" and such.
If you're up for it, let me know.
Thank you. I am up for it.
I had perceived decisions to be the execution of "choice". I had also assumed that choices are based on the information we have "acquired" on the current experience within the decision space that the logic allows.
In that way I assumed that the ability to "choose" anything defined "free will" and I also assumed all this was fundamental to our "ability" to perceive (at the level we do "perceive").
Jesse Sovoda
"Free will" is an illusion.
Unfortunately, there is no free will because of the dependent nature of values in perspective.
We can say that you choose to go out and get a cheeseburger as an example of how you have control over what you decide to do.
Yet we ignore so much about the supposed choice, focusing only on what seems like the end result (a tasty cheeseburger).
We don't think about not being able to materialize a cheeseburger without going outside, or going out to get a cantaloupe burger, or having to put on clothes and pay for it. The cheeseburger is entirely dependent on a myriad of other interdependent systems working together in unison to bring you the appearance of free will.
That's the say nothing of the reality that the cheeseburger is not real.
Free will presumes that we can be, at times, able to not experience the most relative perspective next.
The most relative perspective is what we experience, not free will. But this is also not a choice. You are not forced into experiencing anything, of course. This is the only way it could possibly be done because there is no actual energy.
The energy of the universe is an illusion. It would be impossible to 'jump' over to the 2nd least-wasteful perspective just for the fun of it. The reason that we experience that which takes the least amount of energy (or interactions) is because the energy is not really there to begin with.
If choices are "...based on the information we have "acquired" on the current experience within the decision space that the logic allows" would that also include the 99.999% of all information regarding our experience that our senses are not aware of? [Scientists would provide that number. I would say 100%]
So would this be a conscious choice based on a very infinitesimally small amount of total information? That's to say nothing of the contradicting or misleading information that our brains don't know what to do with.
It is not that we are free to choose from a selected variety of perspectives. It is that free will is meaningless when everything depends on everything else. It's one system, you could say.
So are you free to go get yourself a cheeseburger? Yes. As long as it is realized that the concept of freedom of choice is irrelevant.
Our choices are limited by what we "believe" our choices are. I see where you're coming from, but "free will" (ability to make (any) choice based on the information we ARE aware of) is as I see it, fundamental to our "current" experience of "reality"(within the spectrum of nothing).
Since we can never be "TRULY" self aware (because even what we consider our "self" is outside of awareness) we seem to get information on the relationships this "self" represents, but it's all illusion. When all we experience is illusion, the illusion itself becomes irrelevant because EVERY experience is supported by the framework it provides. So we can tag any experience with "illusion" or "simulation" or "nothing" or "existence" but I just don't see it as useful. I do see tagging experience with "perspective" useful as it allows us to take into account the totality of the most relative relationships that define that perspective.
I understand what you mean by "free will" being an illusion, I just don't see "free will" and illusion as mutually exclusive systems. Popping from bottle to bottle is what we do automatically as the dominoes fall within the most logical pattern (requiring the least energy or number of interactions). But this automatic "process" by which perspectives cascade through their variants is an expression of the "free will" of the system that houses perspective. Free will (the opportunity to make choice within a limited decision set) is a tool we use to enhance and express our perspective in a way that leads to "deeper" and "richer" opportunities for illusory experience. The illusory concepts of "free will" and "fate" are one in the same because the decisions we "believe" we've made are the decisions we've "always" made and we made them based on what we perceived (albeit illusory) to be our past decisions and their perceived results.
The moment there is opportunity for choice, whether illusory or not, there is "free will" automatically generated (perceived) with in that space.
If what comes next (in our nothing kaleidoscope) is what takes the least energy to come next and we can define how that energy is distributed and the framework in which it flows, then that ability is our perceived "free will". It's a self correcting feedback loop and presupposes time and decision space. Perhaps I am limited by my "current" inability to see beyond my perceived "ability to choose".

Hi. I've watched some of the really great videos on the video page here. They've been a huge help. I've been able to knit a few rows and they're getting better, but they're awfully bumpy. So I watched the videos again and again and I can't see how I go wrong, but I do see that I have the yarn on top of the knitting instead of behind it. Practice will likely make my knitting less bumpy, but practice isn't going to reverse that particular problem. And I think that might be contributing to the bumpiness.
I noticed the "knit" videos start after a few rows are already on. Is there something that is supposed to happen between the caston and the knitting that I'm missing?
These things are hard to explain, which is why I love the site's videos so much. A picture is worth a thousand words and a video is worth a thousand pictures. But this is the best I could do.
oops - I forget that the words have precise meanings - when I said "loose" yarn, I think I meant "working yarn". (it's just loose compared to what's been knitted)
After you knit a row and turn it, the working yarn will be in front, because it was in the back before you turned. When you knit the next row, make sure that your yarn goes under the needles and behind.
Another thing is that when you knit all the rows, you will get garter stitch--which looks like a bumpy row and a smooth row. The knit stitch is the reverse of a purl. When you knit every row, you're essentially ending up with knits and purls showing on both sides.
If you want all V's on the front and bumps on the back, you have to knit one row, purl one row.
Does that answer your question?
You can look at Demo of a Small Project on the Tips page, to see a piece from caston to bind off which shows how you progress from the cast on to the first row. When you're at the end of the row and turn to start the next one, move your yarn out a little to the side, then to the back. Too often new knitters have the yarn up over the top of the needle to the back which pulls up the first stitch and makes it look like 2 sts. That's a great way to add extra stitches when you don't want to...
Thanks, guys. I must have been stopping after the same number of rows each time and not realized that it alternates.
I definitely didn't realize you have to switch the stitch to keep the appearance consistent, or that the first row is naturally bumpier than the others (when you switch the stitch type).
I'm going to watch that demo video now and then practice some more.

MIAMI—IHG has signed the new-build Holiday Inn Porto Maravilha and Holiday Inn Express Porto Maravilha hotels.
The 32-story hotels will be located in Rio de Janeiro's revitalized downtown area of Porto Maravilha. The hotels, owned by Odebrecht Realizaçöes Imobiliárias and FII PM Caixa Fundo de Investimento Imobiliário Porto Maravilha, will be managed by IHG.
"We see great potential for our brands in Brazil," said Joel Eisemann, chief development officer, the Americas, IHG. "The redevelopment plan in Porto Maravilha aims to restore the city's heritage while enhancing the city through new structures and economic opportunity. We are delighted to serve as a part of the city's revitalization and for the opportunity to reenter the booming Rio de Janeiro market during a time of such promising evolution."
Museums, parks and new restaurants are opening nearby the 244-room Holiday Inn Porto Maravilha and 350-room Holiday Inn Express Porto Maravilha as the area undergoes its restoration plan before the 2016 Summer Olympics is hosted in Rio de Janeiro. Both hotels are expected to open by July 2016 for the Olympic games.
The new hotels will be designed in line with the Holiday Inn Brand Family's $1 billion global brand re-launch. Both hotels will share the same tower and operational area. The residential design of the hotels will include business-focused necessities such as an ergonomic workstation and data ports. The bathrooms include a multifunctional showerhead, as well as a signature shower curtain with curved shower rod, and bath amenities. Additionally, each room will feature standard Holiday Inn and Holiday Inn Express brand guestroom accommodations—double, queen or king-sized beds, a sitting area with a lounge chair, hairdryer, micro-fridge, coffeemaker, iron and ironing board.

SAP® BusinessObjects™ Predictive Analysis Software to Bring Intuitive Predictive Modeling and Advanced Visualization to More Users, Harnessing Power and Speed of the SAP HANA® Platform
WALLDORF, Germany - As organizations evolve their business strategies to remain competitive in ever-changing markets, they rely on today's information to make choices for tomorrow. Empowering them with the ability to improve decision-making by predicting future outcomes, SAP AG (NYSE: SAP) today announced SAP® BusinessObjects™ Predictive Analysis software . The new offering aims to equip more people with a modern, user-friendly, graphically stunning tool for predictive modeling and advanced visualization. The software is intended to harness and unleash the full value of "Big Data" when coupled with the power and speed of the SAP HANA® platform, enabling organizations to reveal and act upon untapped opportunities and hidden risks.
"There is a lot of untapped insight that could be exposed from exploding internal and external, structured and unstructured data sources," said Dan Vesset, vice president, Business Analytics solutions, IDC. "Predictive capabilities help businesses explore and identify the opportunities and risks hiding in the sea of all that big data. SAP's integrated approach to predictive analytics helps more users learn not only what has happened, but also understand why it happened, what might happen and what the best course of action is."
Predictive modeling has traditionally been the domain of statisticians and data scientists. However, the intuitive interface and stunning visualization of SAP BusinessObjects Predictive Analysis are intended to bring predictive insight to an under-served user community – the business analyst. With the software, analysts can create models either by using the predictive algorithms included or can integrate and use algorithms from the widely-used R open-source data analysis and statistical language. SAP plans to enable customers to use the software for instant insight into large data volumes to anticipate future opportunities and risks. Examples include:
Unleash the Value of Big Data With SAP HANA
While SAP BusinessObjects Predictive Analysis is planned for availability via standalone deployment, the software is also intended to uniquely unlock the value in "Big Data" when utilized with the SAP HANA database, which provides a data mining and statistical function library. Access to data sources outside of SAP HANA is planned, including universes, SAP® Sybase® IQ server and more.
Once data – structured, unstructured or both – is loaded into SAP HANA or an alternative data source, data and business analysts will be able to benefit from intuitive predictive modeling, beautiful advanced visualizations and data exploration, all with a drag-and-drop interface for data selection, preparation and processing.
Insights can then be delivered to dashboards, alerts and mobile devices, or accessed by other analytics solutions from SAP such as the SAP® BusinessObjects™ Business Intelligence (BI) platform, SAP BusinessObjects Explorer® and SAP® BusinessObjects™ Web Intelligence® software , as well as Microsoft Office applications.
Bring Predictive Analytics to Everyone in the Business
SAP BusinessObjects Predictive Analysis and SAP HANA are important steps in SAP's goal of bringing predictive insight to everyone in the organization – not just the analysts. This means extending predictive capabilities to where people work: into business applications, BI and collaboration environments, and on mobile devices.
SAP has already delivered predictive applications powered by SAP HANA to numerous industries, and is aggressively expanding its predictive applications portfolio.
Utilities companies, for example, use SAP® Smart Meter Analytics software to identify energy-consumption patterns and perform customer segmentation. Retailers use predictive algorithms in SAP HANA to hone in on product relationships and their associated financial performance in achieving corporate targets, as well as view store-level performance and conduct what-if demand model scenarios. Sales teams, similarly, use predictive capabilities extended into SAP BusinessObjects BI solutions to generate up-to-date pipeline reports, drill down on individual leads and make projections for the end of the fiscal period.
"Analytics solutions from SAP are powering a decision-making revolution for businesses that recognize the future starts a second from now, not a week or a year from now," said John Schweitzer, senior vice president and general manager, Analytics, SAP. "That's why predictive applications must be intuitive, where people work and powered by real-time performance. With SAP's comprehensive approach to predictive analytics, more people in the business can explore, visualize and share insights from exploding volumes and varieties of data."
SAP BusinessObjects Predictive Analysis is currently available via the SAP® Ramp-Up program.

Exterior Foam sheathing thickness?
I am about to install foam board ont the exterior of my home. The house has r-13 insulation and 1/"plywood sheathing. Will it make a big difference if I was to use 1" thick foam board instead of 1/2" foam board, the price difference is $7.00 and more of a hassle to install. My home is drafty and their or other issues such as the windows that are leaking. What do you think?? Thank You!
Buy going with a thicker insulation board there are some issues you will have to deal with when you go to install your siding, some thing to consider.
1) you will have to pack out you window trim. I don't like my siding J channel sticking past my doors or windows I like to keep it back some.
2) what are you going to do with your gable trim, same thing you will have to caulk your Chanel to the rake trim to keep water from getting behind it.
This is why the 3/8" foam board is so popular, but the R- value is low. The 1/2" foam is what I normally use because of the R-3.2 rating you should Get around an R-6 or 7 with the 1" but you run into the above draw backs.
if your thinking of doing your roof do that first this way you can pack out your trim to accept the thickness of your insulation and siding, I like to have the foam and the siding behind the rake trim when I do the complete exterior of the house.if your going to change the windows you can then install a wooden build-out around the window openings the thickness of your foam then you can install siding. This is the sequence that I conform to. But read on you will get other great advice from the other pro,s on this site.
Good luck BOB.
If you do not take into account of all the technical problems of installing thicker foam do you think the extra thickness will make a difference. I get the feeling a lot of heat is lost through the cieling into the attic. This is a ranch house and the attic has about 8" of blown in insulation. Thank You
In my area, 1" of foam is standard, along with 2X6 wall studs filled with R20 insulation.
Ceiling insulation is R40 now, although my 60 year old house only has R30.
Lots of insulation saves heat in the winter and A/C costs in the summer!
I do not know what the R rating would be for 8" of blown insulation I know R-30 is around 9-1/4"
you think your losing it through the attic? let me ask ! when it snows and it covers your roof does it melt before the other surrounding houses?
is the whole attic covered with the insulation, It wasn't pulled back in spots was it?? BOB

Police look for pickup that struck officer working security
Police in three counties are searching for the person who struck a Colfax officer working off-duty security at a Geist-area gas station late Sunday night.
Just before midnight, Deputy Chief Joshua Robertson noticed a white pickup that he termed "suspicious" parked at the Shell station at 96th and Olio Road. He approached the truck to speak to the driver, once the driver came out of the station.
The driver started to drive away.
"My hand got caught in the tailgate of his truck," Robertson said, "and he dragged me about 15 feet, flipped me in the air and I landed on my stomach." His injuries were not serious.
The truck, a 2003 white Ford Ranger, was driven by a white male, approximately 6 feet tall, 150 pounds, wearing a ball cap, according to Robertson.
It may have been involved in burglaries in the neighborhoods near the gas station.
Police in Hancock, Hamilton and Marion counties have been advised to be on the lookout for the white truck with an Ohio license tag.

I do enjoy a fantasy which entails being able to observe President Obama, the former professor of constitutional law, having a discussion with members of his staff concerning issues related to the right of privacy that Americans enjoy. A new report by the Brennan Center for Justice reveals there is chaos in the process of sharing, or not sharing, information between various agecies of the government that might, somehow, pertain to spies and secrets. The report notes, "this poorly organized system not only wastes time and resources, it also risks masking reliable intelligence that could be useful." A system that provides access to "secret intelligence" by over one million people ensures there ae no secrets.
A key issue is what does or does not constitute "reasonable suspicion." How do these "intelligence" agencies determne who or what is a "suspicious" person. Logically speaking, if one was a "terrorist," then it is likely they would NOT do suspicious things.But, in the fantasy land of our "intelligence" experts, suspicious folk openly behave suspicious in order to call attention to themselves. Me thinks not. If you are a secret agent, keep it quiet should be your motto.

It's been a snowy and wet nightmare in the Northeast lately. Christine is snow day chic here at work. Cute boots and a bright warm scarf to brighten up a cold winter day. I love the little leopard belt.
Down South, it wasn't snowing, so I wanted to wear my latest Jane.com find. I have a friend who cringes every time you mention the word chevron, but I couldn't resist. I love prints, so one chevron print shirt is surely okay. It's easy to throw on for moms. It felt a little dull so I put on my favorite Stella and Dot green earrings.

Hey who doesn't like winning free stuff!!
I don't have any back stock so what you see here and on my myspace page is pretty much what I have laying around. I'm not interested in doing TFP right now because i'm trying to work on a small line of clothing. If you have a great concept feel free to pitch the idea and maybe something can be worked out. I'm super easy going and open to new ideas.
I'm hoping to expand my portfolio. I have a lot of pin up and think it's time to move in a new direction
I graduated, from a school in Chicago, IL, with a B.A in Fashion Design. Steadily, from there I have been gaining experience by doing photo shoots, fashion shows, styling and making custom outfits. Concept, Patterns and construction of garments and hats everything pictured in my portfolio was made by me unless otherwise mentioned.
I'm not into the everyday average. I think I would call it more of a sub-culture look but I really enjoy historical clothing, wearable art, fetish, horror, Japanese fashions, anime and cos play, pin-up or classic hollywood and some high fashion. Making hats is by far my favorite but I also make clothes. Mostly I make latex clothing but sometimes inspiration strikes with other fabrics.
I can do wordrobe styling if interested. I have tons of vintage hats, clothing, gloves and umbrellas.
I don't design men's clothing at this time. I would very much like to in the future. Unfortunatlly, i'm a very small business right now and it will probably be a while before I get that off the ground.

Passport to an MBA: CEIBSby
Passport to an MBA is an occasional series featuring interviews with MBA students from all over the world. The interviews were conducted at top business schools by Matt Symonds, chief editor of the business school website MBA50.com and a Getting In guest blogger.
The Chinese economy is predicted to claim the No. 1 spot as early as 2018, and businesses the world over are trying to claim a stake in this increasingly lucrative market, whether in finance, technology, automotive, or the luxury and retail sectors. But the success of any such venture is contingent on understanding China, both professionally and culturally.
Business schools have woken up to this reality and now offer any number of study trips, exchange programs, and even, in some cases, a campus presence. But for an increasing number of young professionals in the U.S. and elsewhere, the idea of actually studying for an MBA at a Chinese business school is becoming an attractive alternative to staying at home. Where better to learn the language, study cases about local business, reflect on the influence of the government, and build a network.
Colin Bezenar has completed his MBA at the China Europe International Business School, or CEIBS, in Shanghai. He studied humanities as an undergraduate in the U.S. and worked for eight years at an international nonprofit. He and his wife had been thinking about an MBA for a number of years and had heard and read a lot about China, which had piqued their interest. Both lacked direct experience of the language and culture, but when they relocated there for work, they immediately started to look at local MBA programs.
What follows are edited excerpts of my interview with Bezenar. Click here for a video of the complete interview.
What has stood out about the Chinese MBA experience?
We feel both smarter and wiser. You go through the program and learn a lot of the hard skills that you have wanted, but the other part is that China is just a different environment than most of us have been in. Working with classmates in this environment, doing projects in China, you have a broader sense of how business is and can be conducted, the opportunities, the circumstances facing you when working with colleagues and companies. I feel like I've grown a lot and learned a lot.
Did you speak Mandarin Chinese before you started the program?
I had absolutely nothing, so we started out with an intensive course and kept moving through courses all along. I'm now at a place where in spoken Chinese I can at least get by.
Can you really understand China and the way that it operates in an 18-month MBA program?
Clearly no—this is such a unique place. But I would say that you are a lot farther [along] than if you stayed at home and continued to read the business press. This is a place where you really have to be to experience it, and you have to talk with both Chinese and the expats who have been here and contend with the issues that are very singular to China. In 18 months, my perspective on China has changed a lot in fundamental ways.
Some of the China content we have had, with both Chinese and foreign professors and guest speakers presenting on China—that type of insight coming from experts who have lived, worked, and taught here for years has been very valuable and gives a depth to my experience here.
How will the MBA help in terms of career steps?
The experience here allows me to tell a story as I move back to the U.S. You look at the U.S.—and enrollment in MBA programs is massive. The fact that I have done that same program in China, in a totally different environment, contended with a new language, in a market that is interesting for more and more companies across more and more industries, I think that element of CEIBS will give me a leg up.

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- Uncertainty in the climate sensitivity to growing levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide has been a stumbling block to policy makers addressing the climate change issue. A study published in the March 28 issue of the journal Science, however, concludes that huge reductions in fossil-fuel carbon emissions will be required by the middle of this century -- regardless of the likely climate sensitivity.
"To reduce carbon dioxide emissions and avoid dangerous interference with the climate system, we must switch to alternative, carbon-free energy sources," said Atul Jain, a professor of atmospheric sciences at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a co-author of the study.
Jain and his colleagues -- lead author Ken Caldeira, a senior scientist at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and Martin Hoffert, a professor of physics at New York University -- found that even if climate sensitivity is in the low end of the accepted range, climate stabilization will require a massive transition to carbon-emission-free energy technologies during this century.
Climate sensitivity is the global mean temperature change that would result from doubling the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Based on current models, climate sensitivity is thought to lie between 1.5 degrees Celsius and 4.5 degrees Celsius.
In their study, which was funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, the researchers constructed stabilization pathways that led to a 2 degree Celsius warming after the year 2150. For each of the pathways, they calculated the allowable carbon dioxide levels using a globally aggregated Earth system model called the Integrated Science Assessment Model.
If climate sensitivity is at the high end of the range, then by the end of this century nearly all of our power will have to come from non-carbon-dioxide-emitting sources, the researchers found. "We must begin replacing fossil fuels with alternative energy technologies that support economic growth and equity," Jain said. "To achieve stabilization at a 2 degree Celsius warming, we would need to bring the equivalent of a large carbon-emission-free power plant into production somewhere in the world every day for the next 50 years."
The study concludes: "We do not now have non-carbon-dioxide-emitting energy technologies that can be applied today at the required scale. Given the long lead times needed for market penetration of new energy technologies, we need to develop appropriate energy technologies now."

Hargrave's relatives testify in murder trial
'My dad's a good man, my brother is the villain'
BEND, Ore. - Kenny Hargrave is torn.
"My dad's a good man. My brother is the villain in this story," said Hargrave said Wednesday on the witness stand, a witness in his father James Hargrave's defense
"I understand you love your father," said Deschutes County District Attorney Patrick Flaherty.
"I love my brother too -- I miss the hell out of him," said Hargrave.
Last December Jim Hargrave shot and killed Kenny's 28-year-old brother Steven inside their Tumalo home.
Testifying in the murder trial, Hargrave recalled the good and the bad about his younger brother.
"We told each other we loved each other -- that was the last thing we said to each other," said Hargrave. "When he was drunk, Steven knew how to get at everybody's weaknesses."
Prosecutors say Hargrave murdered his son, while his lawyers say it was a killing committed in self-defense.
Defense attorney Carla Nash didn't get much more out of Kenny Hargrave. Many of her questions were interrupted by Flaherty objecting to her questions.
Not letting anything slide, Flaherty pointed out Kenny's statements were much different when he testified in front of a grand jury months ago.
"In fact, you told a grand jury you'd never seen your brother assault your father, isn't that correct?" asked Flaherty.
"I don't remember that," said Hargrave.
"You don't remember that?" Flaherty confirmed.
"No, sir," said Hargrave.
Other relatives spoke up about Steven's bad behavior.
"When he was drinking, he was very menacing," said Lynette Hargrave, Steven's aunt.
"He said to me that he was going to burn my house down with me in it, and kill my dogs, slash my tires -- then he put his arms up like he was going to fight," said Steven's uncle, John Hargrave.
That fight never happened, but Steven was involved in a deadly fight with his father last December, and a jury will have the final say as to what happened then.
The defense continued calling relatives of the Hargrave family to testify throughout Wednesday afternoon. The trial picks back up Thursday morning.

Note that small foreign cars DO NOT have a frame! There are very few exceptions, such as the old Honda S600 roadster and other MG Midget/MGB sized Japanese cars, but they will likely be expensive. Pickups, on the other hand, all have full frames with few exceptions. Cboy pointed out one problem -- the bulky and relativel ugly front suspension.
That said, I've often considered such myself. I'd start with the smallest pickup I could find -- an old Dodge Ram, Mazda, Chevy LUV, Ford Courier, Toyota, all early to mid 70s -- nothing as new as a Ranger or S-10. Should be able to get one for near junk prices, though the engine is liable to be junk also (who cares?). After stripping off the body (but don't destroy/dispose of it just yet!), I'd mount the engine where I wanted it and and look at that front suspension. One way to handle that would be to hide most of it. Put the radiator in front of it and see how that works. If you can live with the looks mount the cab right behind the engine. If the back of the cab clears the rear wheels perfect! Cut the top off the cab and use that for your "tub"!! Build/buy a model A/T looking bed, do a little metal work around the cowl (probably stretch/fair it out a bit), and get a radiator shell. Motorcyle style fenders for the front is fenders are required. The four cylinder front springs will be about right with the engine set back, and the pickup rear leafs should be about right too. Moving the engine so far back puts more of the load on the rear springs than the empty truck had, and less on the front springs.
If the cab is to wide it would be easier to take a chunk out of it than to build your own tub. Unless you want to build something more along the lines of a T roadster -- pretty much a flat deck with "wrap around" bucket seats! Not sure you could get that licensed though. With the truck frame and cab, you could legally license it as a whatever year truck, another reason for using a modified cab as a tub. Might have to section the cab too, or chanel it over the frame. That would be some work, but would eliminate a lot of paper work for registering the thing.
So what to do about the front suspension if it just doesn't look right? "Front half" that frame! Cut it right behind the old crossmember and make a stub frame for a straight axle. That will greatly reduce the fab work and material cost. New steel isn't that pricey, but the way. If you have to pay someone to weld it that's a different ball game!!

Auckland rubbed in their victory over Central Districts in the T20 final at Colin Maiden Park with a 40-run win in the one-day game on the same ground yesterday.
The Aces scored 279 for nine in their 50 overs and, after a skittery start in the field, they were never seriously threatened by the visitors, who were dismissed for 239 with one ball to spare.
The announcement of the national one-day squad came during the Central innings but neither Jamie How, who was caught at midwicket off Daryl Tuffey for two, nor Jacob Oram, who was leg before to Ronnie Hira for five, celebrated their selection at the crease.
The Auckland innings was a mixed bag, lacking the really big partnership that would have put them in control.
Lou Vincent, whose big century was the foundation of the comfortable victory over Canterbury in the last game, went cheaply. But fellow opener Jeet Raval was in good touch with 54 off 60 balls, adding 50 with captain Gareth Hopkins in good time before he was caught behind off leg-spinner Tarun Nethula.
Former Aucklander Nethula also removed Colin de Grandhomme and when Hopkins played across the first ball of a new spell from Doug Bracewell and was bowled, Auckland were suddenly 122 for five.
Kyle Mills came and went, another Nethula victim at 135 for six, but Colin Munro played an uncharacteristically subdued innings of 68 and Hira (36) and Tuffey (36) ensured Auckland posted a competitive total.
On a day when a gusting wind tested the bowlers' control, Nethula took three for 46 from his 10 overs. Mitchell McClenaghan also picked up three wickets but his figures suffered as the tail hit out.
Auckland's catching, so secure in the T20 final, let them down in the early stages of the Central innings. Opener George Worker, who went on to make 57 off 64 balls, was dropped twice before he reached double figures. The unlucky bowler was Kyle Mills.
Michael Bates, the destroyer in that final, had 17 taken off his first over but Tuffey and Andre Adams applied the brakes and Hira collected a couple of quick wickets. At 148 for six in the 36th over, Central needed some quick runs but only Kruger Van Wyk responded with 36.
Adams and Hira collected three wickets and Tuffey bowled an impressive 10 overs for 32 and two wickets.

Have you heard of Silver Hills Bakery? They are a Canada based company offering gluten-free, high-fiber bread that is full of nutritious ingredients to fuel your body. For me, a person with a tortuous colon who must live a high-fiber diet indefinitely, this was a Heaven send. It is so incredibly hard for me to maintain a high-fiber diet while living gluten-free as I have done without cheating since my celiac diagnosis over 5 years ago. There are a lot of awesome gluten-free breads out there. The best ones usually don't have too many nutrient dense ingredients though because then they lose their light, traditional bread appearance. Silver Hills Bakery gluten-free bread is more dense but that is because it is full of wonderful things your body needs. I have a piece of toasted bread nearly everyday either with breakfast or made into an open face sandwich. I have noticed a difference in my bodies digestions when I consume this bread over others. My belly just seems to be happier overall.
This bread is great with sweet jam or peanut butter as well as served in more of a savory fashion with turkey, lettuce and pickles. I use the bread as a base for many different types of sandwiches. Most recently, I enjoyed a grilled onion and quinoa burger sandwich which was fantastic! The options really are endless. Here are some other reasons for choosing Silver Hills Bakery gluten-free bread directly from their website.
We believe that those living with Celiac Disease or adhering to a gluten-free diet due to wheat or gluten-sensitivity, shouldn't have to miss out on the healthy, whole-grain goodness of great-tasting bread.

How-To Geek Forums / Linux
Fedora 9 on a USB stick(16 posts)
i'm working on it but i am in the process of transfering live 4 GB's from my flash drive because i can't seem to find my other ones at the moment :)
Thank you jack. I knew you would be able to give me an opinion on that. Lately, you and the Geek seem to be the only ones capable to answer Linux questions. No rush - take your time.
well i had it done and then i accidently erased it LOL so now i have to redownload it again that is the only part that takes a while for me it installed pretty fast though.
yes whs it works just like it should work :D i am really happy with it and fedora looks really nice too really has some good eye candy
jack, Thank you for all your efforts. Do you think that this is a good version for someone who just wants to aquaint himself with Linux? Remember, I have not yet had any real exposure to Linux and that would be my "starter set". Also, where do I find some good "starter documentation" to get myself going. When I browse thru the net, I cannot really tell good from not so good.
well most of it is good but the way i learned is just by using it and playing around with certain things. Also it is a very good distro to get you started it has a very windows like interface which will make the transition easier for you. :D
haha i have like 5 pc's in one room so i can just move from one to the other to test things out lol :)
That's a lot of equipment. I have 2 here and 2 in Florida. But I can always only use one because the laptops are the wife's. And she does not like me to test things on her systems. I am only allowed to fix them when she screwed them up.
ya that is kinda how some things go here too but i mainly use them all except my brothers he won't let me touch it lol but where I usually am sitting with my laptop i have a desktop right next to it now so all i have to do is turn in my chair to use it :) and i also have a machine on my dining room table so when i eat i can still be on lol
I got Fedora loaded on a USB stick. Next time, before I restart Vista (which I rarely do), I will try it out.
ya thats the same with my laptop i never actually turn it off just suspend it by closing the lid
CPJames. Did you not see this one?

Since the dawn of the tech era, obsolete prototypes of revolutionary hardware have caught the eyes of collectors all over the world, and Apple prototypes have always been at the top of this list. Recently an original iPhone prototype surfaced in an auction on eBay, and wound up fetching quite the premium.
Claimed to be one of five prototype models in existence, the iPhone sold for $1499, but no details were given on how the seller managed to get his hands on the rare device. The phone appears to be a legit prototype, but Apple has not confirmed or denied this fact. Wither way, someone just got a cool piece of history at a fair price.

Autumn scenery taken using the Lomo LC-A2013-09-23 1 2 Share Tweet
In some parts of the world, September means a few certain things: the resumption of school, staging of fashion weeks and harvest festivals, and, of course, autumn!
It's that time of the year again where the weather becomes slightly cooler and nature is dominated by warm hues in shades of red, yellow, and brown. It's a lovely sight but if, like me, you live in a country where autumn does not occur and/or haven't been able to visit someplace in the northern or southern hemisphere during this season yet, you can still somehow get a feel of how autumn is thanks to these photos taken by some of our community members!
These pictures were taken using the Lomo LC-A. This camera allows you to shoot using 35mm films, producing photos with rich colors and lovely vignettes! With a wide range of cameras in the Lomo LC-A family, you'll surely pick one that's just right for you!

Description: Books in the Lippincott's Primary Care series offer a hands-on approach to everyday problems encountered in the clinic. This one on orthopedic problems is a graphically intense, quick reference that makes the diagnosis and treatment options simple.
Purpose: The stated goal is to present a primer and treatment guide for the most common musculoskeletal problems seen in primary care. As the diagnosis and treatment options have changed significantly over time, this is a most noble goal and the authors have done extremely well in meeting the challenge.
Audience: This book is for everyone who practices in a primary care setting. The text is easy to understand and supplemented by many graphics, and it assumes little a priori knowledge of the subject or diagnosis. The authors are practicing clinicians who understand how to get to the point.
Features: The series uses distinct markers for "Not to be Missed" and "When to Refer," which are extremely useful. In addition, the book includes access to a website that has a search function for the text, video clips for procedures, and downloadable patient information sheets. The illustrations, figures, and reproductions of radiologic studies are extremely good and are a major highlight of the book, as is the inclusion of the ICD-9 codes for different diagnoses.
Assessment: This should be in every primary care medical library and physical therapy clinic. The patient aids are tremendous. This stands out from most orthopedics books focused on the nonorthopedic practitioner.

Membrane Coatings Martin Jay
Are you still selling your membrane coating material. If so how do I purchase? Thanks, Jerry
Membrane Coatings
You need to have a look at ER AUDIO they sell coatings etc. I have built a set of their Acorns. Rob the owner is unbeleavably helpful. Their coatings work very well.
I have no vested intrest in ER AUDIO, they were just very helpful.
Re: Membrane Coatings Martin Jay
The EC-coating is available for DIY this moment
As you see, there are several people selling conductive materials.
I strongly advice you to compare the properties of the different products and ignore the products who are poorly described in terms of chemical and physical parameters.
Please contact me on email@example.com for details.
Best regards,
Martin-Jan Dijkstra

CHP helicopters help Salinas police arrest three in attempted burglary
SALINAS, Calif. - An 18-year-old and two 17-year-olds were arrested Wednesday after an attempted residential burglary was reported on Arguello Drive.
A teenager reported late Wednesday that it sounded like someone was trying to get into her home through a side window. She hid inside the home and text messaged a family member, who then called police.
Officers arrived on scene and found three males in the backyard as they were attempting to make entry into the house. The three jumped over a fence and fled.
With the assistance of a CHP helicopter, officers were able to locate and arrest three suspects.
Justin Pleasont, 18, was booked into the Monterey County Jail. Two 17-year-old males were booked into Juvenile Hall. All three suspects were charged with attempted burglary, resisting arrest, and conspiracy. Pleasont also was charged with contributing to the delinquency of minors.
