Oliver King Perry, 1920, Gary, Indiana, USA. Starting with the violin, Perry learned a variety of instruments in his youth, including bass, trumpet, drums, piano and clarinet, before the alto saxophone after seeing Johnny Hodges with Duke Ellingtons Orchestra. Perry ended up in Los Angeles, in 1945, after a tour with his small band and stayed, recording for Melodisc Records in July of that year. They went on to have records released on Excelsior/United Artists (not the well-known label from recent years) - finding success on the R&B charts with his Keep A Dollar In Your Pocket, which was covered by Roy Milton. He also recorded for DeLuxe, Specialty Records (with whom he had his only other substantial hit, Blue And Lonesome), Dot Records, RPM, Lucky, Hollywood, Trilyte, Look and Unique through to the late 50s. He turned to selling real estate when work was scarce, but returned to music in 1967 and resumed his recording career on...

I hope you still have good grades, but don't panic and overacted over few bad grades because you can fail just like that if you just focus on that. As long as you finally learn and understand about something and have it in your brain for life, you should be fine and move on with it. I hope you're not ending up like me, but good luck with the recovery.
May I ask you which subject are you failing?
@Da_Almighty_Guy, Too bad... I hope it isn't the class before lunch, so you can rush and finish your homework at school tomorrow. Better get a bad grade than zero.

Yeah, it doesn't matter, if your grades are VERY high on chemistry 1 and bad on chemistry 2 you WILL have recovery on both.
Yep, this is Brazil.
@ Da_Almighty_Guy
If it was about Don Quijote, just write about him running into windmills.
Don't worry about being "addicted" to the fourms and UC3, just do your homework before them and study before you go to sleep.
Anyway, I realized I haven't posted my classes, so without further ado...
1. AP European History- surprisingly one of my easier classes this year. There's homework every night, but it's not a lot, and the tests only have a few questions that can (almost) stump me.
2. Chem H/Gym- in gym, I'm playing Ping-Pong now. It's awesome.
3. Chem H- most of what I'm doing now I did a few years ago. So far, so good.
4. Spanish H- I loathe the fact that we have to remember vocab from FOUR YEARS AGO. I'm dropping this as soon as I can.
5. English H- Socratic seminars are fun, and The Catcher in the Rye is pretty interesting.
6. Luch- no riots (), just a time to relax.
7. Principles of Engineering- in this class now we're working with a CAD-esque program. Thinking about making 2D to 3D is a challenge, but a welcome one.
8. Algebra 2/Trig H- I did ridiculously good in Algebra when I first took it. Same still applies.
9. Study Hall- I am so happy I have this. I generally get all of my homework done here. Too bad I have to take health after the end of the 2nd quarter.
Co-op Adventure Tips & Tricks and Amazing Lab Idea- Now with Brackets Mentioning Kudos Count!

For example, this Wednesday I went into one of my classes that I was having a test for (it's a huge university class with over 100 students in it) and I heard people scrambling and talking about how they needed to study for this test.
It was a 40 question test and I finished it in probably 2 minutes lol! The student next to me probably thought I was crazy circling an answer like a madman every 1-2 seconds and when I got up, the other students and the teacher looked at me probably thinking that I got frustrated and gave up haha.
I'm expecting a 90, but don't want to get cocky...
I also have this thing, where whenever I forget my homework, etc. the teacher cancels class or a sub is there. It freaks me out, but it's true I tell you! (p.s. homework is my kryptonite, so I like classes where it's just quizzes and exams...)

Is Your Amazon Machine Image Vulnerable to SSH Spoofing Attacks?
On the 23rd June, Amazon quietly rolled out a security fix for an issue originally discussed in the Amazon developer forums. Amazon documentation was revised to reflect the change as follows:
"Amazon EC2 public AMIs (Amazon Machine Image) generate unique SSH (Secure Shell) host keys each time you launch an instance. This enables you to get the host SSH keys from the console output and verify the host to which you are connecting."
Important note: SSH host keys enable clients to verify the server identity ("are you really my server?") and are separate from SSH user keys that allow the user to prove their identity to the server ("he really is Jeff").
What does this mean?
It means that EC2 instances created from a public AMI after June 23rd have unique SSH host keys and thus are not vulnerable to a man in the middle attack against the SSH protocol, but only if you manually verify the host SSH key during your initial SSH connection.
OK, but I created my AMI before June 23rd – am I vulnerable?
According to Amazon, yes. Every EC2 instance copied from a public AMI will have the same SSH host keys as the original AMI. The only exception to this is if the original AMI creator spotted this problem and used a hook to force SSH host key regeneration upon first boot. This means that an attacker who say, uses a DNS cache poisoning attack, can intercept the communication between your SSH client and your AMI.
How can I fix my pre-June 23rd AMIs?
Regenerate the SSH host key. The exact commands will depend on your operating system (hint: ssh-keygen).
Who is to blame?
Either the creators of the original AMI or Amazon – depends how you look at it. If Amazon created the public AMI then it could be argued they are responsible. However, anyone can submit a public AMI and Amazon makes no guarantee they are fit for use (Amazon do review the AMI listing according to their documentation).
Amazon can in fact make the argument they are acting in the interests of their users by implementing a shared solution to key regeneration (rather than requiring each user to manually regenerate the ssh host keys after booting an image). That's fine going forward but what of potential exposure to customers using the pre-June 23rd public AMI copies?
Just to be clear, its not the fault of SSH – 'secure channels' require proper key management and the need for unique host keys is well documented.
Are there any mitigating factors?
Yes, if you have used security groups to limit SSH access to your AMI from IP ranges you trust (rather than the entire Internet). You'll still want to regenerate the ssh host keys sooner than later.
Is the Amazon environment vulnerable to Man-in-the-middle attacks?
I don't know. But that isn't the real question – is the path between you and your AMI immune to MITM attacks and the answer is most definitely no. If SSH on your AMI is only accessible from another AMI then its a fair question but its unlikely Amazon are going to show you their network diagrams ;-). From experience performing MITM attacks, I would assume most networks are vulnerable (one of the reasons why we use SSH).
Why Didn't Amazon Tell Me I'm Vulnerable? They know from their logs what AMIs I use!
Didn't they? Whoops – naughty Amazon :P.
But seriously, Amazon are not responsible for the configuration of the public AMIs you use. Its important not to confuse the AMI selection and cloning mechanism that Amazon provides, with the content of an AMI itself.
Does Amazon have a mailing list for customers to learn about new security problems (even if its not Amazon's fault).
Not that I know of. Right now you have to search forum posts and monitor documentation updates – which is time consuming and makes it easy to miss something. I also can't find an area on the AWS website where they collect security related items together (e.g. best practices, advisories, key management). In my view, this is a shame as it probably undermines the effort that Amazon are putting into their security (for some customers, if they don't "see it", it doesn't "exist").
A 'Security' link on the main AWS homepage pointing to those resources would go a long way to improving the visibility of the AWS security related information.

Autofiction and Advocacy in the Francophone Caribbean
€ 58,49
Besorgung - Lieferbarkeit unbestimmt
Dezember 2006
BeschreibungLarrier breaks new ground in analyzing first-person narratives by five Francophone Caribbean writers--Joseph Zobel Patrick Chamoiseau, Gisele Pineau, Edwidge Danticat, and Maryse Conde--that manifest distinctive interaction among narrators, protagonists, characters, and readers through a layering of voices, languages, time, sources, and identities. Employing the Martinican combat dance--danmye--as a trope, the author argues that these narratives can be read as testimony to the legacy of slavery, colonialism, and patriarchy that denied Caribbean people their subjectivity. In chapters devoted to Zobel, Chamoiseau, Pineau, Danticat, and Conde--who come from Martinique, Guadeloupe, and Haiti--Larrier probes the presence, construction, and strategy of the first-person narrator, which sometimes shifts within the text itself. Providing a perspective different from European travel literature, these texts deliberately position the "1" as a witness and/or performer who articulates experiences ignored or misinterpreted by sojourners' more widely circulated chronicles. While not purporting to speak for others, the "1" is concerned with transmitting what he or she saw, heard, experienced, or endured, therefore disrupting conventional representations of the Francophone Caribbean. Moreover, in modeling authenticity and agency, autofiction is also a form of advocacy.

A 24-year-old man claimed last week that the Irish music mogul had groped him in the lavatories of a Dublin hotel. But police sources said the alleged victim's statement was not backed up by CCTV footage and he is said to have changed his story during interviews.
In a statement, Walsh, 58, said: "While I obviously welcome today's confirmation from the Garda that the matter has been dropped I remain outraged that this story ran in the first place in the Sun and I have instructed my libel lawyer to vigorously pursue legal action against the paper."
He added: "This has been a hugely distressing time for me but I would like to thank all my friends and colleagues for their support."
Former X Factor judge Simon Cowell and members of the band Westlife were with Walsh on the night of the alleged assault and spoke out in his defence.Reuse content

So it's our movement to we have pitch counts and baseball with a little kids don't Wear out their elbow sure. But we don't set any limit to how often we hit -- and head. And we're all we know if we commit to what they Wear out their brains and sort -- try to establish -- Still it would appear that that. Your institute is now about being proactive and and dealing with these things before they happen as opposed to before when you were just doing research and trying to determine a cause and effect. A brain injuries and brain problems correct well -- and both there are senator Boston University were really -- moving beyond bring banking to let's get a treatment for this -- people are alive in the -- how to diagnose it. But SLI yet we now that we have -- the law in the state that says you have to Nazi doctor before you go back when we diagnose concussions we do good job. But we don't do good job preventing them and we don't do good job diagnose and is there not enough data to prove the point you need more data white continued research don't you know the answers that that these concussions caused these kinds of problems yes yeah we when we do we do know that all -- has to do because. The disease called chronic traumatic encephalopathy in some people whom we don't know why in some people are not and others so there's genetic dispositions when he -- they routes you can figure if you want your child going into context Wharton. But we also -- we honestly -- diagnosis -- people without that we can't really develop drugs to intervene because you can't measure the impact -- as the as the the the -- I mean it in in a negative way as the awareness of what it is you're doing over there has it made it easier for you to contact people and families of people who have passed away and said can we take -- brain has that -- become major Korea. It has become much easier in fact I don't have to make that many calls and more consuming and was call well. If they know what the program's existence we also have. Over 500 athletes -- signed up to donate their brain when it passed way and be followed in some of them I'm fortunate half past two civics have they done. You guys -- -- -- but this -- a New Hampshire opened over Paul Butler retired physician member of the school board. Who wants to eliminate football is too dangerous too many concussions. Wants to eliminate youth football in high school football. Do you worry about people like that you know kind of piggybacking on all of your good work consent let's just get rid of as barbaric sport. We are as funny yeah I knew that would come up and and that comes up every year somebody says this -- and that now they're using our researchers say I I hope would it be you know that one person saying that's not gonna make you go away. So I see this is a positive way to continue to raise standards to make it safer as one of the best and now it's like to draw now is that we do so much to protect the NFL players. But we don't have any of those things in place for young children like to think of Tom Brady got a concussion on the field he would have a doctor on the -- to evaluate him pulled out. McNeill seven year olds don't have that -- they do and high school they -- and high school. Rather it I -- I sat there with them and you get forms to fill out if you have if you get Ding day. Can use that word anymore and you know if there's any. -- suspicion -- a possible mild concussion you know you have to go through the vehicle that test the blog as a baseline the baseline test you know dark you have to proceed doctors use it that I think those. Those coaches you spoke to many of -- in fear right now of sending it out too soon right I mean they'll be guys who do them and they'll begin as always going to be these no -- but don't you think. The message has gotten through. Maybe not to the seven year old put it to Colton high school. Right it has gotten through college high school but we have to consider that only about 42% of high schools have an athletic trainer in the school. So half of them have a medical infrastructure and the other half do not so. We're not everywhere but we do but we are rapidly getting much much better and that's exciting NC Chris as it pertains to concussions and head injuries what would a perfect world in your mind look like ten years from now you courier to succeed -- when you're trying to do. We know one of the obscene things -- my mentor doctor Robert Cantu said in his recent book was. That kids shouldn't be getting hit in the head before the age of fourteen on a regular basis and you step back and you start to realize that. Maybe that's -- crazy idea knowing that the that the problems youths have with head trauma like they have by mechanically -- little tiny week next gigantic -- especially when they're young we know it affects them developmentally and when they get concussions. And we know they're when they're often too young to speak up when they have the -- we asked the college players to speak up from the sums wrong but it's a seven year old doesn't recognize -- issue -- -- knowing those things. You know all the big context the big hits you know may be moving goes to high school beyond the isn't so crazy like USA hockey moving up the checking H soccer moving up the heading -- football moving up maybe the contact page or. Just the exposure elected me not playing ten games when your feet you're not hitting for right we would you rate those things. I think overall where we're headed. Somebody said this to many in the days ago maybe I heard a game. Helmet. Protect the skull and the brain right that's the idea if they have got it does a little bit with the brain but really it was invented because some people were dying of a skull fracture. And so when your brains actually floating in fluid. Helmets not going to stop but it might slow down a little bit but would you think about the space you have and -- only a couple of inches it's not going to be the kuril. So would be the -- No it's the let the other held devices are you air sounds crazy but if they remove the helmets we had leather helmets. And you've heard this question a thousand times and -- face masks what happened what would happen. You would have some people dying like the old days from from severe brain injuries -- skull fractures. But you have dramatically fewer hits in the hand and so you probably treat -- -- diseases exceed the so it's it's it's a trade off. But what the problem -- -- the -- we've had as the more armor you put on people the last -- -- field the more likely they are to run into people right reckless speeds. We're talking with -- whiskey co-founder and president of the sports legacy institute -- this question doesn't apply to seven and eight year old that applies to kids playing and and and older young people playing. The toughness culture where they don't -- reported. Where they're trying to get back on the field even though they know they've been injured has that changed and in in the last couple of years that toughness culture. It has changed my my new favorite piece of data is that. Between 20102011. -- can diagnose concussions -- army navy and air force football double. Because the players to start reporting they started reporting more concussions so. It is changing slowly. And it's gonna take year after year of education I think the best analogy we have is that kids know not -- -- their way through neck injuries. You know when you twit you hurt your neck you fall in your head and you can't move and armor shrine. They recognize don't move that scare some yes yes but that took in annual education was like it went just figured this out right so when we get the annual education people realistic and protect the brain like and how many brains she got nine annual collection. We have over a 135. -- as well -- get judges. 31 before you -- -- and don't forget -- shut us at at and what does this expansion mean I assume. It's funny CT in a very high percentage. We are we are I was like all. Not all well you know you've played more than ten years ago and exports football ice hockey boxing. The risk is very high in in our brain -- -- -- -- -- by example so doesn't really tell us how widespread it is population but it's not what it's like this is a really really rare thing and a lot of guys. And even some guys who wouldn't expect and you know the youngest cases now seventeen. And it's gonna keep trickle even lower as we get younger -- you have a seventeen year old brain in your collection -- generals who died with CTV. As a football player and -- dive of second impact syndrome meaning -- missed me concussion. While went where -- see -- he was went into high school yeah in Kansas yeah Nathan -- and his parents I assume and heard about your. And the the the brain bank brand and all the good work you've done and and they wanted to know did you bring me. Closure for them any resolution in their mind that I mean duty. That he had problems before he passed. No I mean is it when you have CT at seventeen it's just -- -- small area so it's not enough brain disease to really affect the way you behave. But I think that brings down the cautious parents actually came up we met them last summer while and it was a tearful meeting. You know Chris this is probably gruesome question I ask but when we hear about these athletes and and non athletes committing suicide in the shooting themselves in the Chester -- shall by not. Should himself in the head. -- -- understand by that that they probably want to have their brains examined even if they haven't contacted you is that what that's all about. The outskirts it's. Kind of scary and an unknown phenomenon named -- There is a percentage of people who shoot themselves in the chest whether or not you know as a regular suicide bomb in suicides. -- are very complex thing what. In a case like the -- and leading and write a note saying study my brain yes. You know and then other people toxins -- shot themselves in the Cha cents or football players. You know I. We can't assume that they want us to look at their brain but you know. And there was no note or anything in Junior -- -- show until Machida wasn't note but I only had when he was starting the break say anything about it do we know anything about sales. Feelings and why is motivation to shoot himself in the chest. No I don't I'm not aware of any note that I don't know anything about his motivation but you didn't get his brain know his brain center and age. And today's study it. Then not much CT I know there and to be evidence society. There is there the results aren't out yet and house and I don't know if there ever will be released. But you know I donated if you don't want them released that you want to by the data but probably the sentiments of privacy they might they mean you know the what was said about the -- case was the media attention and we the people on their -- right at the -- you should -- -- that's not the way it should be so that's why it lost university like our policy is. We never talk about it. We just never -- what cases were pursuing or not. But the you know the media took it to a level that are really made us think about how we treat this going. Which on the positive side speaks to the high profile nature what you and your people were doing. People are now aware of this five years ago nobody would have been on their -- sameness assailed donate your son's brain heart to this to this. Our organization also -- -- games we know the book head games written by you had games -- revealing documentary well what's so what's up with the games those about it. Yet it's exciting because you remember Steve James the director from hoop dream journal of the greatest documentaries of all time. You know he he decided to two. But make had games in to a bookings are so into it into a documentary and -- at the last your filming and he's against a genius he's a great storyteller and so. To have you know part of the problem with you know raise awareness is having this. Story in a long enough format that really forces you think about and so to have an hour and a half of learning about -- some of the science but these stories of people who really suffered what can really happen. It's had an effect on people and gotten great reviews from New York Times and LA times and so I'm just excited to get emails every day from people and their lives changed from watching has it well how do you get to see it. It premiered two weeks ago and a new York and LA now it's going to be in Boston Common actually. Starting tomorrow -- -- yet the -- But it's also on demand on iTunes on FaceBook now excellent value in it. Like I'm on the first half. In the first half do you where you this the paint in your face like you do when you Ruslan do we get to see that they stayed there is a significant amount of old wrestling footage really strict secrecy -- had seen the glory days.

Kendall Jenner Reacts to Parents Kris and Bruce Jenner's Divorce (PHOTO)
Kendall Jenner seems heartbroken over her parents divorce.
As Gossip Cop reported, Kris officially filed for divorce from Bruce on Monday, about a year after the longtime couple announced their separation.
Kendall and sister Kylie both reacted negatively when the split played out on the last season of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" earlier this year.
They don't seem any more approving now.
On Tuesday, Kendall posted a throwback picture of her parents in happier times, simply captioning it with "♥" — see below.
Kylie, for her part, shared a quote about a failed relationship, which may or may not be referencing her parents — also see below.
She also later cryptically captioned a selfie, "Shame on me for changing Shame on you for staying the same."
Kendall and Kylie's half-siblings Kim, Khloe, Kourtney and Rob have yet to comment on the divorce.
Kris and Bruce's proceedings, however, seem to be completely amicable, as the couple have already equally split their reported $60 million fortune without the help of lawyers.
Check out Kendall and Kylie's posts below.

A Conversation with Diana Abu-Jaber, Author of Life Without A Recipe
in Writing
From award-winning author Diana Abu-Jaber, Life Without a Recipe: A Memoir (W.W. Norton & Company; April 18, 2016) is a big-hearted story about finding your way when everyone else has their own prescriptions, their own "recipes," for what your life should be like. In her new memoir about family, food, and motherhood, Abu-Jaber describes what it was like growing up with outspoken relatives who lovingly pestered her with "advice" and how she spent years learning to ignore the script and instead improvise to find her true self and the life she desired. Life Without a Recipe tells a universal story about forging one's own path while remaining deeply connected to the friends and family members who may have driven you a little crazy along the way.

Around 400 demonstrators holding placards and banners staged a mass protest several hundred yards away from the G20 summit.
Helicopters circled the area as world leaders arrived. Marine police units were on standby on the Royal Victoria Dock and snipers were placed on top of a 20-storey apartment building.
Riot police were also on standby as the force feared a repeat of yesterday's violence when anarchists hijacked peaceful demonstration marches in the City.
Climate Camp activists, Stop the War campaigners and the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament demonstrators were among the crowds on day two of the protests. Dan Morgan, 28, a student from Leytonstone, said: "We won't pay for their crisis. Enough is enough. We are determined that they hear our message loud and clear."
Some protesters complained that police were not allowing them near the centre. Long-time peace campaigner Lindsey German, the convenor of the Stop the War Coalition, said: "I think it's rubbish. I can understand issues with security when you've got all these people here, but I don't understand why we are not allowed to protest outside the Excel Centre.
"We are absolutely miles away and I believe that really is not acceptable."
Around 1,500 police officers were involved in a military-style operation to protect the Excel as delegations were escorted in police convoys.
In the City trouble flared at the London Stock Exchange this morning as protesters, equipped with paint and climbing gear, tried to scale a monument in Paternoster Square. Two were arrested and the Stock Exchange opened without a hitch as about 100 officers circled the entrance to the building.
This morning an army of cleaners set to work in the Square Mile to clean up graffiti and slogans left by yesterday's protests while shops re-opened for business.
Today it emerged that police had come under a barrage of missiles as they tried to save the life of a man who collapsed during a protest near the Bank of England last night.
The officers were hit by bottles thrown from the crowd and were forced to carry the man to a safe location to give him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. An ambulance crew then took the man to hospital, where he died.
An independent investigation has been ordered into the death of the man, who was in his forties. He had been found slumped in an alley off Cornhill after suffering a suspected heart attack.Police are investigating reports that he was an innocent by-stander who got caught up in the trouble.
The man, shaven headed and in a Millwall football club shirt and tracksuit trousers, lived in the City. The incident has been referred to the Independent Police Complaints Commission.
A witness claimed that protesters came to the aid of the man, and that just a few plastic bottles were thrown by people further back in the crowd who did not realise what was happening.
Fran Legg, a politics student at Queen Mary, University of London, said her friend went to help the man and put him in the recovery position. About eight riot police arrived with police medics and stood around him. She said by the time police medics took over from her friend, the man had fallen unconscious. Elias Stoakes, 25, also a student at Queen Mary, said: "There were a lot of people around him trying to help an d asking for medics. One or maybe two plastic bottles were thrown, but it was by people further back in the crowd who did not know what was going on. There definitely wasn't a rain of bottles."
Police said they had made more than 90 arrests during the protests, which have seen anarchists smashing the windows of an RBS bank branch in Threadneedle Street, and 5,000 people laying siege to the Bank of England.
Sixteen protesters were held for violent disorder and one man for suspected arson after he allegedly attempted to set light to the RBS branch.
Thirty people were injured during the protests yesterday, three of them police officers. Today police were braced for a series of separate demonstrations, mostly based around the summit meeting at the Excel centre. The Stop the War Coalition, British Muslim Initiative, Campaign For Nuclear Disarmament and others said they were planning protests near the Docklands centre. The Free Tibet group, which was planning to lobby the Chinese delegation, while another group, Youth Fight for Jobs, marched to the Excel centre from the City.
A group of masked anarchists was believed to be at the centre of yesterday's violence. One reporter described how he had attended meetings of the Whitechapel Anarchist Group, which claimed to be taking orders from University of East London professor Chris Knight. Early today police moved on the last of the Climate Camp demonstrators attempting to block Bishopsgate. The group had set up tents in the street and was staging a mainly peaceful protest.
City bosses today praised the Met's handling of the G20 protests yesterday, describing it as "a tricky job very well done". Stuart Fraser, of the City of London Corporation, said: "The police are managing a very difficult balancing act: they need to make sure the demonstrators can protest peacefully and safely, while protecting property and keeping the City open for business. "
Met Commander Simon O'Brien said: "The majority wanted to protest lawfully but there was a small element who were hell-bent on hijacking that."

A Little Too Hard
As he prepared himself, he clutched the orb so hard he thought he was going to squish it.
But not literally.
Luke looked down in horror at his palm where a pile of shiny dust was in the place where the orb had been.
He dropped to his knees, yelling, "What have I done?!"

Thompson, almost incredibly, has drafted just three running backs in his six drafts: 5-foot-10 Brandon Jackson and 5-foot-10 DeShawn Wynn in 2007 and 6-foot-2 James Starks in 2010. Jackson and Wynn aren't exactly small; Jackson was 210 and Wynn 232 when they were drafted.
As a byproduct of the Packers' edict against drafting mighty-mite running backs, their return game has suffered. While most of the NFL's top kick returners are smallish wide receivers, Seattle's Leon Washington (5-foot-8), Arizona's LaRod Stephens-Howling (5-foot-7), Jacksonville's Deji Karim (5-foot-8) and San Diego's Darren Sproles (5-foot-6) are running backs probably deemed too small by the Packers.
At the Scouting Combine, however, coach Mike McCarthy hinted that there could be some easing on the no-short-guys edict and that he'd work to involve that kind of player into his offense.
While there might be help at receiver — they're very high on Troy's Jerrel Jernigan (5-9, 185), we've been told — don't expect the Packers to change their tune at running back.
At least in this draft.
Simply, there aren't many explosive little running backs in this draft.
Eight of the 34 tailback prospects at the Scouting Combine last month checked in under 5-feet-9. Not one of them got under the magical 4.4 in the 40-yard dash — though Kentucky's Derrick Locke and Connecticut's Jordan Todman were clocked in exactly 4.4. Two of them — West Virginia's Noel Devine and Notre Dame's Armando Allen — skipped the 40 altogether. One of the most productive of those munchkin-sized backs, Oregon State's Jacquizz Rodgers (5-foot-6), was timed in 4.64.
If the Packers were to buck their no-small-backs trend, the one guy who probably tops their chart is Todman, who ranks third in Huskies history with 3,179 rushing yards and 31 rushing touchdowns. Todman (203 pounds), who is considered a third-round prospect, handled a heavy workload in 2010, which is why he entered the draft following a junior season in which he carried a whopping 334 times for 1,695 yards and 14 touchdowns. As the featured back, he returned only two kicks in 2010 but averaged 24.2 yards on kickoffs in 2008 and 25.3 with a 96-yard touchdown against Notre Dame in 2009. He caught a combined 40 passes as a sophomore and junior. His 25 reps on the bench press show his impressive strength.
Locke, who a source said talked to the team at the Combine, is an explosive player but tore his MCL and ACL as a sophomore and missed four games as a senior with shoulder and elbow injuries. As a senior, Locke rushed for 887 yards and 10 touchdowns, caught 34 passes and averaged 26.3 yards on kickoff returns. As a junior, Locke rushed for 907 yards and six touchdowns, caught 31 passes with two more scores and averaged 27.8 yards with a touchdown on kickoff returns. He is considered more of a fifth- or sixth-rounder because of the injury history.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - February 4, 2003, New Braunfels, Texas New Braunfels TUESDAY February 4, 2003 12 pages in 2 sections mmmmm ""VBF" I ^ pages in Z sectkHERALD-Z EITUNG Vol. 152, No. 71Serving New Braunfels and Comal County since 1852 50 centsShuttle probe to focus on flying chunk of insulation By MARCIA DUNN AP Aerospace Writer SPACE CENTER, Houston (AP) — NASA acknowledged Monday that its "best and brightest" minds may have gotten it wrong when they concluded in a report four days before Columbia disintegrated that a flying, 2 1/2- pound chunk of insulation did no serious damage to the shuttle's thermal tiles during liftoff. Shuttle program manager Ron Dittemore said NASA will redo the entire analysis from scratch. "We want to know if we made any mistakes," he said. Practically from the start, investigators have focused on the possibility that a 20-inch piece of foam insulation that fell off the shuttle's big external fuel tank during liftoff Jan. 16 doomed the spacecraft by damaging the heat tiles that keep the ship from burning up during re-entry into the atmosphere. While Columbia was still in orbit, NASA engineers analyzed launch footage frame-by-frame and were unable to determine for certain whether the shuttle was damaged. But they ran computer analyses for different sce narios and different assumptions about the weight of the foam, its speed, and where under the left wing it might have hit, even looking at the possibility of tiles missing over an area of about 7 inches by 30 inches, NASA said. The half-page engineering report — issued on Day 12 of the 16-day flight — indicated "the potential for a large damage area to the tile." But the analyses showed "no burn-through and no safety-of-flight issue," the report concluded, according to a copy released by NASA on Monday. School board, county initiate funding search for traffic light By Ron Maloney Staff Writer The Texas Department of Transportation's latest study shows that a signal light could be erected at a dangerous intersection near Smithson Valley High School. Now, local officials who don't want to wait for state funding of the project are trying to find a way to pay for it sooner — and begin work on it now. The intersection, which now has stop signs on FM 3159. is to be replaced by an overpass with ramps, what engineers call a "grade separation" intersection. But that will not happen for a decade or more, officials said. The intersection is regarded as especially dangerous to SVHS students who must travel through it twice each day to get to the Bulverde or Canyon Lake areas. While the intersection now warrants a signal, Greg Malatek, Tx-DOT area engineer in New Braunfels, said this past week the project has been put on a waiting list of intersections already approved for traffic signals. The earliest he thought Grunert money would be available for the project would be Fiscal Year 2005. Local funding would be the only way to get the job done sooner, Malatek said. "In past conversations with the school district, they had offered to pay for a signal," Malatek said. 'The fastest way to get this signal up is to get outside funding. We've done this before." H-E-B paid for the signal Help signals The Comal Independent School District and Comal County have scheduled meetings Friday morning to discuss funding a traffic signal on Texas 46 at FM 3159. ■ CISD trustees will meet at 7 a.m. at the district maintenance facility conference room located on Business 35 in New Braunfels. ■ Commissioners' Court will meet at 9 a.m. in the courtroom of the Commissioners' Court building on Main Plaza. located on Texas 46 in front of Bill Brown Elementary School in Bulverde. CISD Superintendent Jfin Grunert said the district set a board of trustees meeting for 7 a.m. Friday to talk about funding for the signal. Grunert said the school district administration would be asking its trustees to find at least half of the necessary' funding. "We're going in feeling this is something we need to do for our kids and citizens. We want to get it done as soon as possible," he said. "We're real excited about the opportunity to get this light done." Precinct I Commissioner Jack Dawson said Comal County has set a special session of commissioners' court for 9 a.m. to discuss the same issue. "I'm going to be over there at 7 a.m. for their meeting, See TRAFFIC LIGHT/3AAmbitious plans for sports complex withdrawn inside Flume's proposed ballot initiatives throw curveball at lodgers group Mayor Adam Cork wants to slow down the process and carefully examine the impacts of taking the 4B money away from economic development By Ron Maloney Staff Writer Members of the New Braunfels Lodging and Restaurant Association were surprised by District 3 Council member Debbie Flume's proposal to divert sales tax money now set for economic development to road repair. 'The association issued a press release this past week announcing its support for building a regional sports facility that would include baseball, softball, soccer fields and possibly sand volleyball courts. The proposal called for the pro ject to be paid for by 4B money and by increasing the Hotel Occupancy Tax by two cents to raise an additional $400,000 a year. Then, NBLRA President Dan Henry went to the city council meeting and heard Flume's proposal for a pair of ballot initiatives in the May 3 election that would divert two-thirds of the 4B sales tax to street repairs. "We're a little hesitant to do it," Henry said of the sports complex. 'They sort of threw a curv e at us with 4B money, trying to sidetrack some of the economic development taxes." The 4B tax, so named for its enabling legislation, is three-eighths of one cent. The total local sales tax is two cents per dollar. One-half cent of that is the county sales tax. Flume wants to cut the 4B tax to one-eighth of one cent, diverting the other quarter of a cent specifically to street repairs. Tile District 3 representative said this would create a fund dedicated to street repair and would enable those repairs to happen. Detractors say the plan would actually decrease the amount of money available for street repair, gut economic development at a time when the city needs it most, and hamstring the city's ability to bond for its big-ticket street projects by taking away the mechanism to service the debt. Whatever it does, Henry said the idea is short-sighted and, if passed, would have a far-reaching effect on the community. The first effect is halting plans for the sports complex. New Braunfels Mayor Adam Cork was disappointed to hear that the NBLRA feels the need to back off advancing the regional sports facility concept, but he said he could understand why it might choose to. "I can understand their position. Volatility in a marketplace is not the friend of any business, and that's what this equates to. Nobody wants to invest in something that is volatile,' Cork said.

I would really like you add function to send images, files or other on skype for windows phone ! It's really a lack for those who wish to share something with their Skype contacts and have to go through complicated and devious ways to do this. Approve of my idea ! (Sorry for my very bad english ! Live google translate !!)
I agree that skype should have the feature to send images through windows phone 8, if someone knows a way it would be awesome!
Yes, I want this too! My mobile provider (Rogers in Canada) has lousy support for my Lumia 920. Sending and receiveing MMS/picture messages usually fails, particularly in areas with spotty service. However Skype just works. It would be great if I could use Skype to send and receive pictures (and other files, maybe even integrated with SkyDrive) exactly the same as I do on my desktop.

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
This month, Oral-B will release its new $5 manual toothbrush, breaking all previous price barriers by more than $1. Gillette (Oral-B's parent company) contemplated selling the toothbrush for $4, but market research proved that consumers were willing to pay more for "movement inside their mouths similar to the multiple cleaning actions of an automatic car wash."
Yet, according to American Dental Association consumer adviser Dr. Richard Price, all toothbrushes do the same job if used properly. "Bottom line, it's not the brush," says Price. "It's the brusher that makes the difference." Price says consumers have been similarly duped by ineffectual toothpaste "improvements," such as baking soda and hydrogen peroxide (which mostly just foams, says Price).
Unlike previous generations, baby boomers can expect to keep their teeth for a lifetime. But since the price of the best care maxes out with a 75-cent brush and a $1.50 tube of fluoride toothpaste, Americans are spending millions annually to enhance the appearance of their dental care.
Hence the No-Mess, No-Waste Toothpaste Dispenser. This Italian, solid-brass accessory will squeeze, flatten, and roll your toothpaste tube for you -- all for a mere $75. Despite its claims, the dispenser is both messy and wasteful. Starting a tube requires wasting the first few inches of paste, and the brass needs periodic polishing and buffing. Daniel Lally, PR director for the dispenser's retailer, admits, "It's a luxury, yes, but...[it] reminds you why you work so hard in the first place."

Patients are generally asymptomatic until the disease is advanced. We report a rare patient with cardiac tamponade as the first manifestation of primary GC. A 46-year-old male was admitted with progressive dyspnea. Cardiac tamponade was diagnosed on two-dimensional ultrasonographic echocardiography. Pericardiocentesis yielded 1500 ml of bloody fluid. Pericardial cytologic examination was positive for malignant cells. The patient underwent abdominal computed tomography scan, which showed thickening of the gastric wall and several mesenteric lymph nodes. Endoscopic examination of the stomach disclosed malignant ulcer along the lesser curvature, and the biopsy showed diffuse type adenocarcinoma. Chemotherapy was initiated by the Oncology Department, and he had no pericardial effusion after six courses of systemic chemotherapy. In conclusion, this is a rare condition and difficult to diagnosis early. Thus, physicians should be aware of malignancy of the stomach when patients present with unexplained cardiac manifestations. C ardiac tamponade due to pericarditis and pericardial effusion originating from a primary gastric cancer (GC) is a rare condition. Patients are generally asymptomatic until the disease is advanced, and therefore, early diagnosis is difficult. Pericardial effusion is usually detected during the terminal stages of GC, and the prognosis is poor. There are several reports of cardiac tamponade Abbreviations: as the first clinical sign due to CT Computed tomography GC, and these are mostly case GC Gastric cancer reports. Özet– Primer mide kanserinden kaynaklanan kalp tamponadı nadir bir durumdur. Hastalar genellikle hastalık ilerleyinceye kadar semptomsuzdur. Bu yazıda primer mide kanserinin ilk belirtisi olarak kalp tamponadı gelişen bir olgu sunuldu. İlerleyici dispne şikayeti ile başvuran 46 yaşında erkek hastaya yapılan iki boyutlu ultrasonografik ekokardiyografide kalp tamponadı tespit edildi. Perikardiyosentez yapılarak 1500 ml hemorajik sıvı boşaltıldı. Perikart sıvısından yapılan sitolojik incelemede kötü huylu hücreler görüldü. Karın bilgisayarlı tomografisinde mide duvar kalınlığında artış ve mezenter lenf düğümleri saptandı. Endoskopik incelemede küçük kurvatur boyunca uzanan ülser ve biyopside difüz tip adenokarsinom saptandı. Hastaya onkoloji kliniği tarafından kemoterapi başlandı ve altı kür kemoterapi sonrasında perikart sıvısı görülmedi. Sonuç olarak, bu klinik tablo erken tanısı zor ve nadir görülen bir durumdur. Bu yüzden doktorlar açıklanamayan kalbe ait bulgular ile başvuran hastalarda nadir görülse bile mide karsinomu konusunda uyanık olmalıdır. Here, we discuss a rare patient with cardiac tamponade as the first manifestation of primary GC. The remarkable aspect of the case is that there were no gastrointestinal symptoms until the onset of cardiac tamponade.

On physical examination, his blood pressure was 90/60 mmHg and heart rate was 120 beats/minute. He had orthopnea, tachypnea, jugular venous distension, distant heart sounds, and pulsus paradoxus sign. Sinus tachycardia, low QRS voltage and presence of ventricular electrical alternans were seen on electrocardiogram. Chest X-ray showed an increased cardiothoracic ratio and bilateral pleural effusion. An emergency two-dimensional ultrasonographic echocardiography disclosed massive pericardial effusion with right atrial and ventricular early diastolic collapse and presence of "swinging heart phenomenon" (Figures 1a, b). Cardiac tamponade was diagnosed, and emergent pericardiocentesis yielded 1500 ml of bloody fluid.

Pericardial cytologic examination was positive for malignant cells having features of carcinoma, and pleural cytologic analysis was negative. Abdominal CT scan showed thickening of the gastric wall and several mesenteric lymph nodes. Endoscopic examination of the stomach disclosed malignant ulcer along the lesser curvature, and the biopsy showed diffuse type adenocarcinoma. After pericardiocentesis and thoracentesis, the hemodynamically stable patient was transferred to the oncology department for chemotherapy. Combined cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil and docetaxel was initiated. He had no pericardial effusion after six courses of systemic chemotherapy. DISCUSSION Malignant pericardial effusion is a serious and potentially life-threatening illness that requires prompt evaluation, diagnosis and management. Various conditions may be associated with pericardial effusion and tamponade: infections (bacterial, viral, and fungal), chest trauma, collagen vascular diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus), uremia, hypothyroidism, and malignancies. Among malignant tumors most frequently associated with pericardial metastases are carcinoma of the breast, melanoma and lymphoma.[1,2] In the oncological patient, pericardial effusion may develop via several different mechanisms, namely by direct or metastatic spread of the primary process or as a complication of antineoplastic therapies. Secondary cardiac metastases most frequently arise from primary lung tumors. The most commonly reported of these include bronchial carcinoma, breast cancer, leukemia, Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, melanoma, and sarcomas. Primary GC rarely metastasizes to the heart, with 4.3-7.7% reported from autopsy investigations.[3-5] Fraser et al.[6] analyzed 22 cases of cardiac tamponade caused by extracardiac malignancy, and found only two to be caused by primary GC. Pericardial effusion with cardiac tamponade is an unusual first presentation of GC, although cardiac involvement is often a late finding in widespread malignancy. With respect to the presenting symptoms of GC, patients may first complain of upper abdominal pain, anorexia or other gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, bleeding, or melena. Some Cardiac tamponade as the first clinical sign of gastric adenocarcinoma GCs have atypical symptoms. Metastatic tumors to the heart resulting in malignant pericardial effusion with cardiac tamponade as the initial clinical sign are not seen frequently.[7-9] Kobayashi et al.[10] reviewed the literature regarding 17 patients with cardiac tamponade presenting from GC. Our patient showed cardiac tamponade as the initial clinical sign of gastric adenocarcinoma. The prognosis of cardiac tamponade caused by malignant pericarditis is grave, and survival is limited.[10] Although no standard treatments for malignant pericardial effusion have yet been established, the effectiveness of pericardiocentesis and pericardial sclerotherapy has been reported.[7] Pericardial effusion is often resistant to treatments; thus, it results in poor prognosis. Furthermore, it requires a repetitive administration of sclerosing reagents, and treatmentrelated complications are known. In conclusion, cardiac tamponade may be the first clinical sign of primary gastric carcinoma. This is a rare condition and difficult to diagnosis early. Thus, physicians should be aware of malignancy of the stomach when patients present with unexplained cardiac manifestations.

Anyone with a large family or awkward seating positions, meanwhile, will appreciate the way the P42S20's plasma picture retains its full colour intensity and contrast even when watched from quite an extreme angle (unlike the vast majority of LCD TVs).
While we're on the subject of plasma advantages, there's also the P42S20's impressive black level response to consider. Admittedly, dark parts of films look rather more milky on the P42S20 than they do on Panasonic screens that use the latest NeoPDP technology, but they still humble the black level efforts of practically all LCD TVs at the £600 or so price point - especially with regard to the amount of shadow detail the screen reproduces while retaining a decent black colour.
Final bits of good news concern the way the 600Hz and other processing systems go about their business while generating precious few unwanted side-effects; and the image's exceptional stability versus the slightly flickery look many affordable LCD rivals generate as a result of their inevitable dynamic contrast systems.
Turning to the P42S20's sound, it's not at all bad by flat TV standards. As we nearly always find ourselves saying about flat TVs, a bit more bass would have been appreciated, but at least the mid-range is quite open and reasonably dynamic, and treble detailing is handled sensitively, in that there's enough of it to make soundstages appear detailed without things becoming artificially 'twinkly' or harsh.
If your TV budget can only stretch to £600, then the P42S20 is a tantalising option - especially if you're going to be in a position to feed it quite a bit of HD fodder. However, we can't help but think that if you can stretch to £150-£200 more, the extra quality and features you can obtain from the Panasonic P42G20 are worth every single extra penny.
This does seem like a sweet deal. I think you guys need a new badge for bargain products like this that aren't top of the range but offer best value for money. Trusted Reviews "Best Value" or "Bargain Alert".
An other way to look at this, is this: It's a 42" 1080p plasma screen monitor for your PC which costs £1,400 less than the 24" DreamColour LCD from HP.
Anyone want to impress their clients?
plasmas are unfortunately not recommended for pc monitors 'cause they suffer from image retention which leads to burn in after repetitive use...
as for the "milky blacks" i'd appreciate a more concrete comment like it produces 0.xxx nits black level at 1xx brightness, using the checkerboard pattern, so we know what we're talking about 'cause the vast majority of ccfl lit lcd's reach nowhere near a plasma on that and the viewing angle aspect.
@ evan
Agreed - but as a secondary monitor to demonstrate media, such as motion graphics, CAD or to colaborate on editing, surely it must be a consideration?
it sure is considering price/performane!
btw my 42U10 is way more impressive than any lcd display when showing video and mograph to clients. best display for 500 euros....(but not recommended as a monitor with the GUI loaded for hours.)
In your post you compared the big plasma to 2480 dreamcolor, a totally different kind of monitor.
If you want an accurate wide-gamut PC display then the Nec PA 241W is an excellent choice.
If you are looking for a sleek narrow bezel (1.5cm) digital signage display, made for staying on long hours and even pivoting, look for the PHILIPS 42BDL4251V or the pricier Nec P401 with PVA panel.
Double the price of the Panny, but more pro looking with the slim bezel, and versatile for moving around, rotating etc.
Still the Plasma will have a much punchier picture, faster responce for video, deeper blacks and viewing angles (very important for collaborative work, so everybody around IS able to see, and sees the same thing)

I already added code to allow use of httpd.conf instead of workers.properties ( I use it for development, so I don't have to change 2 files ). Virtual hosts are a problem I'm trying to resolve - the current mapper doesn't seem to have that, not sure how it works on IIS/iPlanet. Regarding my proposal, we can either use 3.3 non-flat webapps/ ( i.e webapps/virtual.host/app ) or have a webapp dir per virtual host, specified with either JkWebapps /webapps1 whost1.com or inside a <Virtual> directive. > >- no need to have tomcat running ( or running on > >the server machine ) > > For security reason, i'd like to avoid having webapp code > (servlet/jsp) on the web-server.
