2012 VW Passat Now Available at Shrewsbury VW NJ
The new Volkswagen Passat is a vehicle to consider when visiting Shrewsbury VW NJ. They have more spacious and comfortable interiors in this mid-size sedan, more options for audio systems and startup, and the option to have a TDI Clean Diesel engine.
With the wheelbase having an added three inches, the new 2012 VW Passat has more leg room in the rear of the car, which has always been designed to be ergonomic and as comfortable as possible. Convenience is important to the Volkswagen engineers, and everything is kept refined yet luxurious. Customers have the choice of black, grey, or beige interiors.
Certain models of the new 2012 Passats in NJ offer various high-quality sound systems that are sure to wake the neighborhood. Options range by model for touch screens, 6-CD changers, MP3 hook-ups, AM/FM radio, and dual-color screens. Along with the entertainment technology are the weather-helpful features. For those cold mornings, some models offer push-button and remote start from outside the car, with simple and easy-to-follow instructions.
Customers can choose between three engine options and four transmissions, but one of the greatest options available to 2012 customers is the TDI Diesel Engine Option. Through various technological innovations, diesel use is more efficient and cleaner. Not only does the car perform better, but it meets emission standards so you can feel better about driving a diesel – powered vehicle.
Safety is always a concern for car manufacturers, and new to the 2012 Passat is the Crash Response System. Also included are reinforced doors in case of side collisions, and a new steering column in case of a head-on collision. Add that to the ABS system and tire pressure monitoring system, and the 2012 VW Passat is a pretty safe bet.

Maybelline Cosmetics
Consumer Complaints and Reviews
If you're obsessed with makeup videos on YouTube then you are aware of the amount of women on there who advocate and praise this product. Claiming it to be the best concealer they've ever purchased. I decided after many months to finally make my purchase. After my first application I noticed the next morning that my under eye area had a dry red rash like my skin had been burned, as well as some eyelid swelling. I have NEVER had an allergic reaction from drugstore makeup before. So, I thought maybe it was just a fluke and maybe I had gotten too much sun that day.
Well, after my second application a couple months later my eyes swole up again!!! I'm so disappointed in this company and women everywhere need to be notified. I don't consider myself to have sensitive skin because I've NEVER had a problem purchasing drugstore makeup. Maybelline has changed their formula or has done something to their product and has not alerted their consumers. SHAME oN YOU Maybelline. I will never purchase another product from them.
Whatever new formula they are using in the Ultra Liner waterproof eyeliner is definitely causing eyelid problems. I have used Maybelline for over 10 years and have never had a problem. Along with many of the other reviews in reference to this particular reaction, my eyes swell as well a couple hours after applying it. Never using any of their products again.
Bought the Maybelline New York Eye Studio Master Precise liquid eyeliner. I applied it and everything was fine. Wore it through the whole day. At night I started feeling my eyes real heavy. I thought I was just tired. The next morning when I woke up I could not open my eyes. I went to the restroom and noticed my eyes were super swollen and red. Had to go to work like that and now throughout the day my eyes are still a bit swollen and that's that I took an allergy medicine. My eyes feel super itchy. Never again.

I do like the Mousse foundation. The Maybelline product is widely available. All makeup brands use the same type of model. A young woman to advertise the products. However I am in my mid 40s. Makeup companies need to do more to enhance products for different age groups. Imagine if Maybelline etc. did a category for over 40s with makeup that really targeted the problems of 40 year olds and above. Loss of moisture and elasticity means some of these mousse foundations are not suitable for this skin. Makeup companies need to realize that women are all ages, shapes and colors. Makeup needs to be more personal.
I've used the same brand of Maybelline eyeliner for going on 5 years. However, recently I bought a brand new tub of eyeliner and within 5 minutes of applying my eyes were swelling shut. I had to go to the doctor as a result plus miss work, which I have the doctor's note proving. It is now two weeks later and I'm still on medication waiting for the swelling to be completely gone. I've also been trying to contact the company repeatedly however they keep sending me a number to call which always happens to be conveniently busy or out of service. I am very displeased and am not going to stop until someone acknowledges this. Obviously they either changed their product without alerting the consumer or they are packaging expired/bad products. This is unacceptable and after experiencing what I did I should not be playing cat and mouse with this company.
Li here, I have heard that Maybelline Baby Skin Instant pore eraser is one of the best in the market, so I after a few months from not using any I decided not to go back to the one I used before and bought myself Maybelline Instant pore eraser. Immediately after using it, I noticed that my vision went blurry especially on my left eye. I thought it might be nothing so when I got to work I wiped it off and my left eye was left with a haze. I skipped 3 days, though vision on my left eye had remained blurry. I then tried it again this morning and the same thing happened and I wiped it off immediately and my vision became poorer.
I have never had a problem with drugstore makeup brands but one week ago I started using Maybelline's FIT concealer. After a few days I started noticing bumps all over my face. They became itchy and red and I cannot seem to get rid It. I started doing my research and I have found people have had the same problem as me! I will never use Maybelline again. Awful experience!
I usually do not write reviews of this nature – however, I'm hoping it will help someone else. I purchased Maybelline Master Kajal about six month ago. I used it while on vacation in a developing country. When I suddenly got an eye infection, I thought it was a result of SOMETHING from the country I was visiting. However, two days ago I used the eyeliner again because it went with my outfit and all of a sudden I got a very nasty eye infection again – mirroring what happened when I was on vacation. My eyes became very red and yellowish mucus formed. There was so much mucus the morning after use that my eyes were actually sealed closed. I had to use water to closely open my eyes. Once I got them opened, they were swollen and looked like I have pinkeye. I did a Google search and realized other people were having similar problems. As a result, I decided to share my experience.
So like 5 years ago I started using Define a Brow to fill in my very sparse brows. About a year ago I finally switched to an organic one and wow! What a difference. Now whenever I am forced to use the Maybelline my head hurts so bad, my face feels tingly and my eyes hurt too. So apparently I had just gotten used to it over the years. I never liked using it because of the chemicals and parabens they use. That's why I finally switched to an organic one. I feel like they should switch out their harmful chemicals. My hair hasn't grown back at all. I worry that it's because of all of the chemicals from the Define a Brow. Use organic if you can. I like the Tarte brand personally (amazonian clay). Doesn't give me a headache.
I've never had a reaction to any product before. The instant I put this on, it burned. I immediately took it off with makeup remover. I have red burns under my eyes! I'm so upset. I will never buy anything from Maybelline again.
I have been using Maybelline eyeliner since I was 12 (my mom went to work before I left for school...hehe) and I am 66 now. I have never developed a rash, I have never had any problems with it and I will continue till I meet my mom again in heaven. I just started using 24 hour super stay lipstick and while I agree with most I read here, it no way lasts 24 hour. I really feel they should change the name to 12 hour because that is about it but either that or lower the price 50%. I pay about $10 a shot for a container that doesn't last that long but it beats the frustration of having to apply and reapply others over and over during the day... Better than most I can honest say.
I recently buy the Maybelline 24 hour staying lipstick and used it for the first time and it destroyed my lips. I have cuts and blisters on my lips and it is extremely painful. They're also very swollen so when speaking it is very mumbled now.
I have been using Maybelline Mascara for at least 30 years. Recently I bought a replacement. The shape and size of the brush is different. "Oh well," I thought. I have been using it for two weeks and noticed immediately that my eyes became red and looked like I had pink eye. Very irritating like I had something in my eye. Didn't make the connection at first. Have stopped using the mascara and my eyes are better. I wonder if I have done permanent damage. Will be going to an eye doctor shortly.
I bought this product because I heard so many good reviews about it. I started using this as soon as I purchased it. A couple of days later I started getting itchy around my eye area and around my cheeks. A week passed and I started getting little blotches around my temples. They were very itchy. I just thought it was the sun and me sweating. Until I realized the only new product I was using for my face was the foundation. The foundation gave me a weird reaction. I have never gotten any kind of allergic reaction to any facial product. I know now that I am never using Maybelline's products ever again.
I have been buying Maybelline 24hr stay for 4 years now, wearing it daily. Never had any issues, always got compliments which was awesome... Till recently I have gone to buy my foundation and noticed it's in a new bottle stating new formula :$ not happy. Since I have been buying the new and improved 24 hr stay I find... I am now buying twice the amount I was with the old formula. HATE the pump lid rather than just pouring it out. By the end of the day it's worn off in sections on my face (never had that problem before). I find it extremely hard to blend it as it always looks blotchy and different colored, rubs on to clothes badly....? WHY CHANGE SOMETHING FANTASTIC for CRAP!!!
I've bought Maybelline cosmetics lately and was surprised. It's very affordable and can be used for everyday wear. I got their blush 'em and I like the shade of the one that I chose - it just gives me the right amount of glow on my cheeks and can be worn on the day to work and even at night when you're out on dates. I also bought their brow define + fill duo. I like the color of the deep brown. It's not that strong when used but can give you much needed definition on your brows. It's also very easy to use and glide over your brows. If you are looking for makeup that won't hurt your pocket, buy Maybelline. It's not that bad at all.
I bought Maybelline Eyeliner last month on 11 May 2016 from a Department Store - Kamdhenu in Andheri West. I have not used/applied the product once and it has dried up and not working. IS this kind of products being sold/supplied by the Maybelline Brand???
I bought Maybelline black eyeliner of the Maybelline midnight series. I do not use eyeliner on an everyday basis but occasionally. I have used other eyeliners in the past that has not had any such adverse effect. I found it very harmful. After wearing the eyeliner, I started developing pain around the eyelids and head gradually. Led to migraines. Did not realize that the pain was due to the eyeliner the very first time I used it. But after a month when I used again, I realized the only reason I could get eye pain was due to this eyeliner. Have never had this problem ever before.
Even after having medicines, the pain seemed to subdue very slowly. Pain persists on the eyelid area. It takes very long to overcome it. It has been a very horrible experience for me. I researched about the product and I believe that some of the chemicals being used are causing this problem. I am surprised that such a leading brand could sell a product that is not well tested. Please do not buy this product for your own good health.
About a week after using my new tube of Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara, the area around my eyes became swollen and painful. My eyes were burning and red. I was away from home, staying in a motel for a family get-together. I thought at first I ate something I was allergic to (although I am only allergic to 2 medications and one kind of soap). I kept using the mascara for 2 more days and I kept getting worse, despite washing my face often and using cold compresses. It never occurred to me that it could be my mascara as I have used Maybelline products forever. The puffiness continued down my face, and I was extremely embarrassed. I didn't use any makeup the third day, because we were just driving home. It took about 3 more days for my eyes to look better.
I decided to use my other new tube of Maybelline mascara, the Falsies Push Up Drama, because I started wondering if it could be my Lash Sensational Mascara that was causing the problems. Within a few hours, my eyes were red and painful, and the area around my eyes was puffy. I knew then what was the cause. It took a few days and I am back to normal, but I'll never trust Maybelline again. I shouldn't have used it anyway because I found out they test on animals. I will find a cruelty-free, safe product to use instead.
Dream fresh BB cream - After using this product my face became covered in hives, my eyes became swollen and my jaw and upper lip became severely chemically burned. I needed to visit a doctor or urgent care 3 times, was put on 2 rounds of steroids, 2 different antibiotics, and 2 different creams. It was horribly painful and embarrassing. I had to miss several days of work and school - I work as a maitre d in fine dining and wasn't able to due to looking terrible and scary and not being able to wear any makeup during healing. I suffered horribly for over a MONTH. It cost me hundreds of dollars.
I am in the process of contacting a class action lawyer to begin a case and am looking to connect with others interested in joining suit. It doesn't need to be the exact product I used, as this chemical reaction seems to be very common across products. It is disgusting and unethical to be selling these harsh products to consumers. Email me **.
I purchased the Instant Age Rewind concealer about three weeks ago and after a week of use I started to develop what I took to be a skin rash right below my lower lash line. This is the 3rd to 4th week and I finally put two and two together and realized that this product was the one causing it. My eyes swell up and are extremely itchy. I start feeling an intense burning sensation on my skin. The rash has spread on the upper half of my eyes and is moving down on the cheek area. Please beware of Maybelline products!
Two weeks ago, I bought Maybelline Falsies Mascara. I have used Maybelline for years and have used this specific brand for several years. My eyes felt like there was sand under my contact lenses. I bought my stepdaughter the same brand on the same day and her eyes swelled to the point where her right eye was shut. We both went to the eye doctor and are both being treated for bacterial infections in our eyes. Coincidence? I think not. First of all, my stepdaughter does not live with us and we only see her every other weekend. We bought the new Maybelline mascara on Sunday before she went home with her mother (therefore we did not have any contact with each other in the 2 weeks between). Two weeks after starting to use the new mascaras, we both experienced eye infections. I will never wear Maybelline mascara again. I have not worn my contacts for over a week and still have another week to go before I can wear them.
Terrible horrific allergic reaction in eyes. My eyes swelled up (and swelled shut), became red and itchy for three or more days. The puffiness would come back at night and I had to put ice packs and tea bags on my eyes for days for hours at a time! Terrible, don't use!!! I have never had an allergic reaction in my life (so I am not very sensitive but this was very bad)!!
I have tried using Maybelline baby lips and after 1 week of use my lips started to sore and I'm having chapped lips since then. Even after I stop using it my lips still looks the same. I feel itching & reddening around the lips.
I have used Maybelline foundation for a few years. I recently bought a new bottle of this last weekend. I had to see an emergency Dr as my eyelids were swollen. Both cheeks and eyelids itched and burned. I was given steroids and anti-histamine treatment and very gradually it improved. I did not connect this with the foundation until after applying it last night I was awake all night with itching and burning. I can only describe my face today as looking like I have acid burns. Maybelline must be aware of this problem and admit responsibility.
I have used Maybelline Great Lash since I was a teenager (more than 40 years ago) but over the years, the quality of the product seemed to greatly diminish. The tubes also had less product inside. I tried other brands over the years but they usually weren't any better. Recently I bought Great Lash Real Impact! The very first time I tried to use it, it was so incredibly dry that I threw it in the trash. Without a doubt, it was the worst mascara I've ever tried to use.
I have recently stopped using Maybelline eye makeup remover as I was getting dry, itchy skin around my eyes but 2 weeks on I still have dry, itchy skin and redness and puffiness under my eyes, and when I wake in the morning my eyes are crusty in the corners and under the eyes! I see others have the same issue and it can take some weeks for it to disappear and heal. Can anyone recommend ANYTHING that can help speed up the healing? I am so self-conscious of this as someone who takes pride in looking after my skin, :-( I will NEVER use Maybelline products again.

PortCityDaily.com is your source for free news and information in the Wilmington area.
A New Hanover County jury found a Wilmington man guilty of trafficking heroin into the county from New Jersey.
John Scott Hudson, 42, was found guilty Friday on charges of trafficking heroin by possession of more than 28 grams, possession with intent to distribute heroin and possession of heroin, according to a notice from District Attorney Ben David. Superior Court Judge John Nobles sentenced Hudson to more than 18 years in the N.C. Department of Corrections. He was ordered to pay $500,000 in fines.
Hudson was one of two suspects arrested following a monthlong investigation by the New Hanover County Sheriff's Office in 2013. According to sheriff's office spokesman Lt. Jerry Brewer, the investigation resulted in the seizure of 3,250 bags of heroin with a street value of about $130,000.
The package containing 49 grams of heroin was sent July 15, 2013 from Patterson, New Jersey, to Hudson's co-defendant, 42-year-old Travis Lee Angel, according to David.
The following day, investigators with the New Hanover County Sheriff's Office Narcotics Interdiction Team were able to identify the New Jersey package and intercept it at local distributor.
Detectives then made a "controlled delivery" of the package to Angel's home in the 900 block of North Fifth Avenue. Angel accepted the package and went inside the home, David said. Hudson walked over to the house shortly after the delivery and took the package to a shed in the backyard.
Detectives executed a search warrant at the residence and found Hudson in the backyard with the package under his arm attempting to unlock the shed, David said.
Drug agents found the heroin powder inside the home, sealed in plastic and stamped "GREAT" for packaging and sale, Brewer said at the time of Hudson's and Angel's arrests.
Angel pleaded guilty before the start of Hudson's trial to trafficking in heroin by possession of more than 14 grams. He will be sentenced at a later date, David said.
"The work of the New Hanover County Sheriff's Interdiction Team helped to disrupt a significant drug trafficking organization that was attempting to develop a network in Wilmington. We hope this lengthy prison sentence will deter others from poisoning our community with heroin," Assistant District Attorney Timothy Severo said.
Severo prosecuted the case for the state. Hudson was represented by Attorney Andrew Waters.

Disgraced politician Bo Xilai will make a court appearance on Friday to hear the outcome of his appeal against his conviction on three charges and sentence to life imprisonment last month, according to sources.
"Bo is preparing to make a statement in court, but the authorities may not allow him to do that," said one of the two sources, who did not want to be named. "He is in good health and mental condition at Qincheng prison."
The Shandong Provincial Higher People's Court said on its website yesterday that it would "announce a decision regarding the bribery, embezzlement and abuse of power case of the appellant Bo Xilai" on Friday morning. The court said the hearing would be "open", but gave no details.
The two sources, who have direct knowledge of the case, said Bo (pictured) would make what could be his last public appearance at the hearing, a rare act under the mainland's court system, which commonly handles appeals in secret.
The higher court is expected to uphold the decision made by the Jinan Intermediate People's Court last month.
In theory, Bo still has the right to seek redress after Friday's ruling by complaining to the Supreme People's Court, but his chances of success are extremely slim, said prominent rights lawyer Mo Shaoping .
More than 100 people attended the hearing at the Jinan court on September 22, including Bo's family members and reporters from state media. As the court announced the verdict, Bo erupted in anger and yelled "Unfair!" and "Unjust!" in an explosive ending to the country's most politically charged trial in decades.
Right after the ruling the former Politburo member filed an appeal, which the high court accepted earlier this month.
Beijing-based political analyst Chen Ziming said a final open hearing in the case would serve to show how much progress the country had made in improving its judicial system and to project an image of legal transparency and fairness.
He Weifang , a law professor at Peking University, said it was nearly impossible for Bo's appeal to succeed because the final verdict had been predetermined by the top leadership.
"The higher court is very much likely to affirm the original sentence of life in prison," said He. "For such a politically sensitive case, neither the higher court nor the lower-level court has the right to make the final call."
Bo, 64, put up a robust defence and denied all three charges against him at his trial in August. The charismatic politician had widely been seen as a top candidate for a seat on the Politburo Standing Committee until his fall from grace, triggered by a flight to the US consulate in Chengdu by his then right-hand man Wang Lijun .

Unwanted HurdlesMature
Jenny took a deep breath as she surveyed the track in front of her. Her bright blue eyes had taken on a slightly cold glint in them as she mentally mapped out her plans. Today was a hurdling day. And, at least for Jenny, hurdles took a lot of concentration. She had just finished setting them up, and was now planning the best way to go about doing them. There were four hurdles on each straightaway and two on each of the shorter ends. She couldn't sprint, if she did, she wouldn't be able to jump the hurdles nearly as well. She had to figure out a good pace.
Having decided on her pace, Jenny began to stretch. She hadn't stretched yet because she wanted to plan out the hurdles before she got distracted. And there was quite a bit for Jenny to be distracted about. The hurdles would bring her back to Earth, they would sharpen her focus. Anyone who ran track knew that to not pay attention while jumping hurdles would result in a painful end. If you were to jump one inch too short, you'd come toppling down to the ground.
Jenny needed to get her mind off of what had happened with Quinn. The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. Did he kiss her because he was drunk? Or did he actually like her? And which was worse? If he had kissed her because he wanted to, it could mean the end of their friendship as they knew it. If he had kissed her because he was drunk… Jenny didn't really know what to think if he'd done it because he was drunk. All Jenny knew was that her best friend had given, or stolen her first kiss. And she wasn't quite sure that she knew how she felt about it.
Jenny took a deep breath, shook herself off, and began to run. She ran at a fast pace, but it wasn't quite a sprint. Quinn would have never been able to keep up. As the first hurdle approached, Jenny braced her leg muscles, and launched herself over the obstacle. She touched back down to the ground, slowing slightly at the landing impact and continued running. She built herself back up to her original pace just in time for the next hurdle. This one went smoothly as well, as did the next, and the next, and the next.
Jenny was halfway around the track, four more hurdles to go, and then a water break. Her legs were starting to get a tiny bit tired, but not nearly enough that it really registered in her brain. She kept running at that same pace. She neared the first hurdle, and sailed over it in perfect form. The same thing happened with the next two hurdles.
There was only one more hurdle to go, and Jenny was still going strong. Each step she took emulated confidence and happiness. This was what she was born to do. The final hurdle grew closer and closer, and Jenny focused in on it as if it were the only thing within a mile radius. She tensed her legs to jump, and just as she was launching herself into the air, she spotted a mop of unruly hair. Quinn? As she flew through the air, almost over the very last hurdle, her second foot caught just a tiny bit on the edge of the hurdle and Jenny came crashing to the ground.
Jenny hit the track with a loud thump. Her head got tossed over in the fall, and her forehead came into contact with the metal part of the hurdle. There was a sort of throbbing pain in her head, and Jenny felt something warm trickling down her forehead. She lifted her hand up to her head to see what it was, and upon taking it down, she saw her hand was covered in blood.
Jenny tried to stand up, she had to get herself to the infirmary. There was no one else around, her running buddy was bedridden. She tried to stand, but her legs wouldn't support her. She collapsed back onto the ground.
The world was spinning. Why was it doing that? And it was beginning to blur around the edges. The throbbing pain in her head was only getting worse. But Jenny fought it with all of her being. No. She had to stay conscious. She had to get herself to the infirmary. Will or Cal would take care of her there. She had to get there. There was no alternative.
Jenny tried to get up once more. This time, she was able to stand out of sheer determination to do so. She took a step forward, and the ground was yanked out from under her as everything went black.

PR: Avatar the Articulate Remakes Nas' "The Message"

New York underground emcee Avatar the Articulate pays homage to the Nas classic It Was Written with a self-produced remake of the album cut "The Message," as featured on Avatar's forthcoming tribute album, It Was Bitten. Despite the satirically seeming title, Avatar's motivation for this release, accompanying his reverence to Nas, is to offer a new vantage point to the time-honored original, so that others can appreciate the concepts and issues addressed in his music.

De La Soul's Plug 1 & Plug 2 Present 'First Serve' - Album Out Now
'First Serve' is many things, but at its heart it is the story of two young boys from Queens, New York in the late-1990's with big dreams and larger rhymes. It follows two friends, Deen Whitter (aka Plug 2 / Dave) and Jacob 'Pop Life' Barrow (aka Plug 1/ Pos), through their struggles in a basement to start their musical career and the battles they face after years of laying demos and mixtapes on the hustle in the hip-hop game.
* http://soundcloud.com/firstserve/de-la-souls-plug-1-plug-2 *
But all the hard work has finally paid off - Jacob and Deen have hit the big time signing to Goon Time Records, and quickly enjoying their first hit with the bouncy orchestral flourish of "Must B The Music."
* http://www.vevo.com/watch/de-la-souls-plug-1-plug-2-present-first-serve/must-b-the-music/GB8771100110 *
The story plays out - from the "Opening Credits" through to tracks like the funky euphoric "We Made It," following Deen and Jacob's original success, through the darkly-hung, break-up ode of "Clash Symphony" to their eventual, tender reunion on the irresistible "Tennis"- with some of De La's most irrepressible rhymes in years, and a succession of hilarious skits. The pair find themselves "bound together with a handshake, not a contract."
* http://soundcloud.com/firstserve/de-la-souls-plug-1-plug-2-1 *
We leave them back on top, on a Paris stage with the call-and-response finale, and surely future hit "Move 'Em In, Move 'Em Out." Where do they go from here? With a world this vibrant, the possibilities seem endless. There are whispers of sequels, comic books, live action versions of this story...but for now, 'First Serve' lives on in the form of some truly awesome beats and rhymes.

This week I bring you Ben Boogz's contribution to our Funky Beat Down campaign. Why are the 2 Hungry Bros finally indicating who is making what? Well for 2 reasons- 1. The fans is fam already and it's like we're all feasting together and presenting who made what specialty dish. 2. Since we both became fathers it been very difficult to get together so we're not fooling anyone.
This Funky Beatdown campaign will be the last opportunity to see what different flavors the 2 of us bring and why it's made our brand of production quite versatile. After this it's back to guessing, unless of course the artists want to act like snitches and don't understand That the bros don't share that ego trip.Oh and 3rd- these Beat Beasts play out more like megamixes than compositions. Variety is the SPICE of life and well the 2 Hungry Bros Kitchen is RACK CITY. Embrace musical variety.Click on the link below to access APRIL BOOGZ FUNK FOOLERYhttp://2hungrybros.bandcamp.com

Went to the vet today and she said I was doing better but to still take the medicine for another week. I met 2 other dogs at the vet but they were big chickens they were whining & panting hard & drooling!
On Saturday I woke up & my back end didnt want to get up with me. I tried to walk but could only drag my back end around. Later my Dad took me to the vet & she took x=rays & said there was compression of the verterbrae. I'm taking medicine right now and I'm walking a little but cant go up or down steps. My mom made a sling out of an old sweatshirt so they can hold me up so I can do my business! So all doxies be careful & don't do too much jumping it's not good for us!

Disclaimer: We do not own Harry Potter or the song Beauty From Pain. Wish we did though cause that'd be awesome!
Chapter One: Beauty From Pain by Superchick
Harry sighed softly looking out upon the lake glittering under the light of the full white moon. Light touched everything giving it an ethereal glow, Harry was no different. His soft smooth moonlit skin glowed, his solemn expression beautiful and sorrowful in the light, his eyes of the most beautiful color that could shame emeralds with their intensity glowed with an inner wisdom that spoke of years more that his body had experienced, his body slender and gorgeous, and his hair appeared soft as feathers in the soft glowing light. He opened his full blood red Cupid's bow lips and began to sing from his heart unaware of the man watching just a short distance away far to enthralled to interrupt.
"The lights go out all around me
One last candle to keep out the night
And then the darkness surrounds me
I know I'm alive but I feel like I've died
And all that's left is to accept that it's over
My dreams ran like sand through the fists that i made
I try to keep warm but I just grow colder
I feel like I'm slipping away"
Harry looked up to the melancholy hanging moon as tears gathered in his enchanting eyes collecting upon his long perfect lashes and he continued to sing.
"After all this has passed, I still will remain
After I've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain
Though it won't be today,
Someday I'll hope again
And there'll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain"
A rather sad smile stretched his lips and he gaze became slightly distant thinking of someone only he could see in his minds eye and he continued a tear slipping down his rosy soft cheeks.
"My whole world is the pain inside me
The best I can do is just get through the day
When life before is only a memory
I'll wonder why God lets me walk through this place
And though I can't understand why this happened
I know that I will when I look back someday
And see how you've brought beauty from ashes
And made me as gold purified through these flames"
The smile became sadder still and more tears slipped from those beautiful eyes making the man's heart ache for his forbidden love and treasured beauty as young Harry clutched at his heart and continued the song in the amazing voice that would shame any siren into silence.
"After all this has passed, I still will remain
After I've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain
Though it won't be today,
Someday I'll hope again
And there'll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain"
Harry allowed his tears to flow freely as his painfully gorgeous smile remained upon his lips and continued the words etched into his torn and bleeding heart held together by the shadow of hope to come.
"Here I am, at the end of me
Tryin to hold to what I can't see
I forgot how to hope
This night's been so long
I cling to Your promise
There will be a dawn"
Harry looked out a helpless and hopeless look causing the watching man's heart to break for him and cautiously step forward as the song continued.
"After all this has passed, i still will remain
After I've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain
Though it won't be today,
Someday I'll hope again
And there'll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain"
Harry looked up and locked his hopeless gaze upon the man as the last words left his lips in the end of his song. The man held out a calloused hand a solemn promise on his lips.
"I will bring you hope if you will allow my love." The man said softly. For the first time in months the man saw the beginnings of hope in those ensnaring eyes and allowed himself a soft smile when Harry took his hand and allowed himself to be pulled into the man's embrace. "If you will allow me, I will love you Harry." The man vowed. Harry smiled into the man's chest melting into the warm, comforting, and protective embrace.
"I will. Please love me, as I love you Professor." Harry spoke softly into the man's chest. The man smiled pulling him back enough to gaze into his wonderful eyes slowly coming to life with hope for a better future, a future together.
"You may call me Severus, Harry." The man told him softly. Harry nodded allowing Severus to wipe away the last of his tears with gentle hands.
"Thank you Severus." Harry whispered gratefully leaning in and kissing Severus hard thin lips so lovingly in made their hearts ache with joy when Severus returned the kiss just as lovingly. Neither knew what the future would hold as they stood there embracing but they both held hope for the dawn of a new future together.
YR: Yay! To let you know pairings are picked via being drawn from a hat as are the songs! Remember only slash!

Galenica Falls After U.S. Withholds Drug Approval: Zurich Mover
Galenica AG (GALN), the world's biggest maker of iron replacement drugs, fell to the lowest in more than four months after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration withheld approval of its Injectafer treatment.
Galenica dropped 3.7 percent to 554.5 Swiss francs, the lowest since March 8, cutting the Bern, Switzerland-based company's market value to 3.6 billion francs ($3.7 billion). The stock has lost 11 percent since July 20, when Vontobel Holding AG lowered its rating on the company, saying it would probably face a delay in gaining approval for the drug.
The regulator's decision was related to a factory in Shirley, New York, owned by Luitpold Pharmaceuticals, where Injectafer would be made for the U.S. market, Galenica said in a statement today. The FDA didn't ask for any additional information on the drug itself.
"During a recent inspection, deficiencies in the manufacturing facility were noted by the FDA inspectors," Galenica said. "The FDA requires satisfactory resolution of these deficiencies before the application for Injectafer can be approved. Luitpold Pharmaceuticals is working closely with the FDA to resolve these deficiencies."
Luitpold, a unit of Tokyo-based Daiichi Sankyo Co., holds U.S. marketing rights for Injectafer. The drug is sold outside the U.S. as Ferinject.

|RE: Tomcat performance issue?
|Mon, 12 Apr 2004 22:16:21 GMT
This evening I did the same with JProbe under 360 requests as you describe and this led to me gaining a 38% speedup. The main bottleneck I found was some very simple tags I have were calling out.flush() at the end. Thiw was consuming 14 seconds of time to flush 1 string from the tag. The tag is called many times within our JSPs because it calls the current skin label. By simply removing the flush call the tag call method time across the load test went down to 2s. Not bad hey. There were other areas which I solved with application scope caching and a bean pool for a 3rd party bean that takes ages to initialise a connection. I am getting there slowly but surely but Yoav I think was right all along and it is the code and you have to profile it and examine those call graphs!!! ADC -----Original Message----- From: Peter Lin [mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com] Sent: Mon 12/04/2004 19:53 To: Tomcat Users List Cc: Subject: Re: Tomcat performance issue? luckily I have a license of Borland OptimizeIt. What I do is I start tomcat using OptimizeIt. Then I create a test plan in JMeter. Once tomcat is running, I warm it up by sending it a couple hundred requests to make sure all the pages are compiled. before the test starts, use OptimizeIt to garbage collect. Once that is done, I start the test and look at the number of threads and size of the heap. If there's a memory leak, either the thread count will increase, or the heap will grow rapidly. Once I see either one, I then switch to the call graph to get a better picture of which methods are getting called. Usually, that is enough to point towards a culprit. repeat, and rinse as many times as needed until you've squashed all bugs and leaks. peter lin Matt Woodings <firstname.lastname@example.com> wrote: I just read your post this morning (I am lurking today as I have a few issues of my own to clear up :-) ) and I think that is some really good advice you gave.

Citibank faces a bill of more than $50 million to clean up its illegal debt sales and collection practices, following two separate enforcement actions by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
In the first action, the CFPB ordered Citibank to provide nearly $5 million in consumer relief and pay a $3 million penalty for selling credit card debt with inflated interest rates and for failing to forward consumer payments promptly to debt buyers.
The second action is against both Citibank and two debt collection law firms it used that falsified court documents filed in debt collection cases in New Jersey state courts. Citibank and the law firms were ordered to refund $11 million to consumers and forgo collecting about $34 million from nearly 7,000 consumers.
"Citibank sent inaccurate information to buyers when it sold off credit card debt and it also used law firms that altered court documents," said CFPB Director Richard Cordray. "Today's action provides redress to consumers who were victimized by slipshod practices as part of our ongoing work to fight abuses in the debt collection market."
Consumer advocates praised the CFPB actions.
"The fact that Citibank was involved in these types of activities ... is unfortunately not surprising. In fact, Citibank ranked fourth among all companies for the most debt collection-related complaints in a two-year sample of complaints filed with the CFPB, and received the most complaints of any major bank," Hall said.
Debt sales
The CFPB said that from 2010 to 2013, Citibank sold portfolios of charged-off credit card accounts but in some instances, provided inaccurate and inflated APR information for almost 130,000 credit card accounts it sold to debt buyers. These buyers then used the exaggerated APR in debt collection attempts.
Citibank also failed to promptly forward to debt buyers approximately 14,000 customer payments totaling almost $1 million, the agency said.

Managing for Profit
Raising rice in California
One of the best parts of my job is the opportunity to visit with farmers from all across the U.S. and around the world. At a recent CLAAS of America event in Omaha, I had a chance to talk to David Lundberg, a rice farmer in the Sacramento Valley of California. We discussed some of the challenges that Lundberg faces in his operation as the state of California continues to impose more rules and regulations on its farmers.

Tiny Kitchen Recipes: Latkes from The Mile End Cookbook
Learn how to make the potato pancake two ways—with applesauce, natch—in the style of the popular Jewish deli just in time for Hanukkah

Latkes from The Mile End Cookbook
Welcome to Tiny Kitchen Recipes, a feature in which we ask chefs, writers, and food bloggers in New York City and beyond to share a recipe with us. Always wallet-friendly, these creations are feasible whether you live to cook or recently stopped using your oven for shoe storage.
RECOMMENDED: All recipes from us
This year, both Thanksgiving and the first day of Hanukkah fall on November 28, and we can think of no better way to celebrate the uncommon event than by serving latkes on your holiday table next week. This recipe is from The Mile End Cookbook by Noah and Rae Bernamoff, the team behind Montreal-inflected deli Mile End in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn, as well as its Manhattan sister restaurant. If you seek a traditional take, see the first recipe for instructions on how to make the time-honored potato rendition; for a version that complements the holiday fusion, scroll down for a butternut-squash variation on the Jewish classic. At the bottom of this page you'll find a recipe for applesauce with which to top the tasty fried pancakes. Happy Thanksgivukkah!
Potato Latkes
- 2 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and coarsely grated
- 1 medium onion, grated
- 1 1/4 cup matzo meal
- 3/4 cup chopped fresh chives
- 5 large eggs
- 1 tbsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt
- 3/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- Canola oil
Place the grated potatoes in a large bowl or other food-safe container, fill it with water and then strain. Repeat this rinsing process 2 or 3 times until the water runs clear, then drain the potatoes, squeezing out as much water as possible.
Combine the rinsed potatoes and grated onion in a large bowl, and mix them together with your hands. Add the matzo meal and mix together, then add the chives. Finally, add the eggs and massage them into the potato mixture until thoroughly incorporated. Add the salt and pepper, and mix it in with your hands.
Heat 2 to 3 tbsp of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches so that the latkes are not crowded in the skillet, take a golf-ball–size portion of the potato mixture, flatten it between the palms of your hands, and add it to the skillet. Repeat.
Cook the latkes until they're crisp and brown around the edges, about 3 minutes; then flip and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, until crisp and deep golden brown all over and still tender inside. Transfer to a paper-towel–lined plate or baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining potato mixture, adding a tbsp or so of oil between batches.
Butternut Squash Latkes
- 1 3- to 4-lb butternut squash, peeled, seeds and pith removed
- 1 medium onion, grated
- 1 cup matzo meal
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh sage
- 5 large eggs
- 1 tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- Canola oil
Cut the squash into chunks and pass them through the grating disk of a food processor. Then follow the instructions for the potato version, substituting the squash for the potatoes (and skipping the rinsing step at the beginning) and substituting the sage for the chives, and cooking the latkes slightly longer over slightly lower heat (about 4 minutes on the first side and 3 minutes on the second side over medium-low heat).
You can reheat the latkes in a 450°F oven in 3 to 4 minutes. Makes 25 to 30 small latkes.
- 6 lbs apples (such as Braeburn, Fuji or Cortland) washed, cored and quartered (about 12 apples)
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, plus more to taste
- 1 cup water
Place all the ingredients in a large pot and cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the apples are soft, about 1 hour. Let the apple mixture cool somewhat, then pass it through a food mill. Return the milled apples to the pot and simmer over medium-low heat until the applesauce reaches the desired consistency, and add more lemon juice to taste.
Makes about 6 to 8 cups.

We're a bit short on snow in my part of the world right now, which is not unusual–it's still on the early side for the white stuff. Of course, the following song's rarely-performed opening verse begins "The sun is shining, the grass is green."
"White Christmas" by Irving Berlin, sung by The Three Tenors:
Video posted by congodfather. (I think the best bit is when the children's choir joins in.)
Or, if you prefer, a 2008 cover by Jason:
Video posted by dare2dreamJC
The song was written for the Bing Crosby/Fred Astaire vehicle Holiday Inn and became an instant classic. Crosby's version of "White Christmas" is the best selling record of all time, the single selling at least 50 million copies; when all the various covers are taken into account, the song is estimated to have sold over 150 million copies. This despite–or perhaps because of?–the fact that it's not so much about Christmas itself as an ideal or dream of what a Christmas should be.
[NOTE: Since the Crosby's single was released before singles charts were a thing, I'm going by the conclusions of the researchers at the Guiness Book of World Records.]

...he was elected for one reason and he screwed it up.
//Seven years ago, in the gauzy afterglow of a stirring election night in Chicago, commentators dared ask whether the United States had finally begun to heal its divisions over race and atone for the original sin of slavery by electing its first black president. It has not. Not even close.
A New York Times/CBS News poll conducted last week reveals that nearly six in 10 Americans, including heavy majorities of both whites and blacks, think race relations are generally bad, and that nearly four in 10 think the situation is getting worse. By comparison, two-thirds of Americans surveyed shortly after President Obama took office said they believed that race relations were generally good.
The swings in attitude have been particularly striking among African-Americans. During Mr. Obama's 2008 campaign, nearly 60 percent of blacks said race relations were generally bad, but that number was cut in half shortly after he won. It has now soared to 68 percent, the highest level of discontent among blacks during the Obama years and close to the numbers recorded in the aftermath of the riots that followed the 1992 acquittal of Los Angeles police officers charged in the beating of Rodney King.//

I lived in L.A. during the Rodney King trial and subsequent riots. I was driving from the San Fernando Valley to Long Beach on one of the afternoons of the riots on the 405 in stopped traffic where some motorists were feeling forced to get out of their cars to pee. Others of us endured the inching along traffic of that freeway and hoped we would get home. Everyone was obviously in shock at how this type of rioting, burning and looting could happen....and how unprepared for it our alert and emergency systems are.
I have observed that the negative sentiment toward white people and lack of respect in general toward whites and toward black people as well as toward white law enforcement has been increasing during this Admin. Suspicions are alive and well and it should never have become this bad. This administration has done nothing, nothing, NOTHING to show equal appreciation for both sides of the problems we have in terms of race relations. This Administrator tends to like to operate independently and arrogantly so, as we have seen. In line with this- He has consistently shown unidirectional empathy toward black participants or victims of these situations. Not that they don't deserve empathy- but he has been consistently inflammatory instead of diplomatic.
I sincerely hoped race relations would improve during this Admin and they probably have not- in most cases that I see... or try to walk through.
However when I was in school locally- in 1997- I found out how actively racist certain parts of our state are and I had never been exposed to such hateful people in school where we were being taught at the Masters level and taught to adjust to DIVERSITY.
This Black/White platform has formed the basis and foundation for the spread of Diversity Training toward our LGBTQ movement.
Great article that you posted.

The Maximum Fighting Championship will finally grant the little guys some respect this weekend when they introduce the bantamweight division and the first 135-pound fight in the promotion's history as Anthony Birchak will take on fellow American Ryan Benoit in the main event of MFC 37: True Grit Friday in Edmonton.
Both young fighters are really looking forward to making a name for themselves in a well-established promotion.
"To be the first fighter signed is a huge opportunity and I knew they set the bar at the top right away. I feel like that puts me as the favorite to be the first champion as well." Birchak stated.
The 26 year-old wrestler out of Tucson, Ari., likens his game to one of his favorites, UFC welterweight Johny Hendricks.
"He's been one of my favorites for a long time now just with the way he uses his wrestling to set up everything in his game. He can change levels and make it hurt because guys are so scared of his wrestling".
Birchak comes in to this fight with nine wins and one loss in his professional career with three TKO wins in a row, and stated shortly after he signed in an article on maximumfighting.com that he trusted that MFC president Mark Pavelich would not sign any "punks" to fight him.
He was right in that trust with whom Pavelich signed as his first opponent, Ryan Benoit.
Benoit is a young, heavy-handed wrestler out of Dallas who is just as excited to get his run to the MFC title going.
"I'm really excited for this opportunity. The MFC is one of the top promotions in the world and I have had my eye on it for a long time." Benoit told sportsnet.ca.
"The MFC is a great place to face tough guys and make a name for myself. It's like a dream come true for me, and I'm ready to make it count."
Like Birchak, the base of Benoit's game is wrestling, but he has a pretty good idea of what he can bring when he steps in the cage.
"I keep saying it but I'm not comparing myself to him. I fight like Chuck Liddell," Benoit said. "I love to knock people out like he does."
The addition of the 135-pound weight class to the longest standing MMA promotion in Canada is an exciting burst of new talent that will add life to a somewhat stale and unstable roster of fighters. Birchak is signed to a four fight deal and hopefully the MFC can lock up more young talent to multi-fight deals.
Due to a failed medical, Chris Barnett has been pulled from the main event title fight with Smealinho Rama and Birchak vs. Benoit has been bumped to the main event. The fight card will also feature the first brother on brother professional fight as Mike and Thomas Treadwell will settle their family feud in the cage.
MFC 37 will be the promotions second show of 2013 and will feature Canadian talents such as Alberta's Luke Harris taking on Jason Zentgraf and Saskatoon's Kurt Southern facing Mukai Maromo.

Michael Jackson: Thoughts on the Passing of a Legend
posted by Tom Moon on June 26, 2009 at 3:44 pm
in Michael Jackson, Thriller, Off the Wall, Bad, Quincy Jones, King of Pop, death of an icon, Keith Olbermann, Wolf Blitzer
Watching coverage of the astonishing news about the death of Michael Jackson, I was brought back to the long, long ordeal of writing the entry for Thriller.
The pundits and news anchors (at least CNN's Wolf Blitzer and MSNBC's Keith Olbermann) appeared trapped in that reflexive celebrity-appreciation loop – dude was an amazing talent! dude was very very creepy!
That was familiar. Normally I'm of the "trust the art, not the artist" mindset, but when my first draft had nothing about his foibles – those lapses in judgement, the physical transformations, the odd behavior – it seemed myopic, a willful whitewash that didn't equip the uninitiated to understand Michael Jackson. As great as Thriller is, and it is as near-perfect a pop music experience as is available to us, what happened in its aftermath is a sordid, painful, arguably preventable tragedy, with a few brilliant tracks interspersed along the way. (See playlist below.)
So I rewrote the thing; this time there was too much emphasis on the troubles. I realize now that striking a balance was difficult because Jackson, whom Olbermann irritatingly kept calling a "man-child," so completely owned the extremes. He was the brilliant inventor of a vocabulary of gestures and dances and accompanying sounds that revolutionized popular music. And he was also the willfully weird, endlessly media-aware recluse of Neverland.
Then there was the not-small problem of finding something new to say about Thriller and the other records Jackson made with Quincy Jones: As soon as that still-blazing first track from Off The Wall ("Don't Stop Til You Get Enough") caught on, Jackson attained a rare ubiquity: His ideas spread everywhere, like a delicious contagion. We heard the electroshock sounds all the time, and somehow didn't mind hearing them again. And it wasn't just the sounds, but the feeling Jackson sent along with them – a giddy, not-to-be-contained exuberance that said, in not many words or no discernable words at all, what a rush it is to be alive.
"Wanna Be Starting Something"
The Jackson 5: "I Want You Back."
"Rockin' Robin" "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough"

He was a great dancer, singer, performer. It was so obvious that he was really weird. When I saw the letter "To the children of the world" that Time Magazine printed not just the text but an actual photo of his writing, you knew he hadn't received any formal schooling beyond 2nd grade, It was sad. I am surprised he lasted this long. He was used. I don't think he knew any loyalty.
#2 from Gladys Calladine - 07/01/2009 7:52
his death means the end of a musical time. I love his strong dance and his great effort.
#3 from Andy Schwartz, New York NY - 07/02/2009 8:28
On the night of Michael Jackson's death, I pulled out a handful of seven-inch singles and rediscovered some great Jackson 5/Jacksons tracks. Among these were the Motown tracks "Get It Together" ('73, prod. by Berry Gordy) and the two-part "I Am Love" ('74). Pt. II of "I Am Love" is as close as we ever got to the sound of an imaginary J-5/Jimi Hendrix collaboration. Produced by Gamble & Huff, the jazzy "Show You The Way To Go" (1977) is one of the group's best tracks from their Epic period with a "breakdown" after the verses that I only wish would go on for at least 3-4 minutes longer (and maybe it does, on some now-rare 12-inch mix).

On Friday night against the New Orleans Saints, Smith comes to the Big Easy with a new team and under the tutelage of Andy Reid. Thus Smith is armed with a solid offense and has all the tools for success to rise above expectations this season.
Still tonight against an average Saints defense, Smith has to be sharp in his one quarter of play. It's critical that the Chiefs don't go three and out in his first series and getting points (hopefully 7 of them) so he can gain confidence in KC's offense.
2. DE Tyson Jackson - The riskiest Chiefs first round pick in recent memory has to show something tonight. In fact, the next four weeks are critical for TJ's future with the Chiefs. I'm not sure what's he's capable of these days but the former LSU standout must grow into his role as a first round pick.
In the weeks ahead, his maturation could prove to be a difference maker for the Chiefs defense. New Defensive Coordinator, Bob Sutton, has a solid defense behind his front line. And in training camp thus far, he's experimented a bit with all his able bodies trying to find three players that can anchor the front line.
For me, if TJ can hold down the left side of the defensive line and Dontari Poe can slide to right end, third year man, Jerrell Powe, (a massive space eater) could anchor the middle and ultimately become a formidable trio.
And that might be KC's best bet, to get TJ from the depths of draft bust to solid contributor.
3. WR Jon Baldwin - Out of respect or coddling, Andy Reid, has put the third year wide receiver running with the first unit offense. That might be a stretch because some believe he may not make the final 53-man roster.
I happen to think he has a world of talent. But to say he's an underachiever thus far in his NFL career, would be anything but absolute truth.
Tonight in the Big Easy Baldwin, who had one of his better games a season ago against the Saints, needs to become that third down receiver who can extend drives or better yet become a formidable Red Zone player. And with that, I bet Reid is going to design some plays tonight to do nothing more than put Baldwin in position to make plays.
What he does with those chances will be interesting to see.
4. QB Tyler Bray - Mark my words. The rookie quarterback from Tennessee has the strongest arm of any Chiefs quarterback. He also has the most potential. Though he's clearly cemented as the Chiefs #3 quarterback, Bray has enough talent he could challenge, Chase Daniel, for the #2 gig in Kansas City.
Though Daniel, who is returning the NFL city that he spent the last four years with, has shown significant improvement the last week in camp. Still the jury is out on his true abilities in the Big Show.
Bray likely will play most of the second half for the Chiefs. And that means, he'll get an opportunity to show off his enormous talents. It also means, he's going to be playing with a group of guys who are either back end of the roster players or candidates to get cut when the Turk arrives the next few weeks.
But Bray can overcome those roster question marks. The goal tonight is to how off his skills and abilities, because at some point in 2014 or 2015, he could ultimately become the Chiefs first home grown franchise - Quarterback of the Future.
5. TE Tony Moeaki - It's understandable why Reid has Moeaki listed third on the depth chart behind free agent signee, Anthony Fasano and 2013 draft pick, Travis Kelce. But is his motive for the demotion for last years starter based on pushing his talented tight end to elevate his game? Or does Reid really believe he's the teams third best tight end?
We may just find that out against the Saints. Moeaki likely will play a lot in the second half against lesser talent. And if the Chiefs throw the ball in quarters three and four, he could be the best hands guy on the field for KC.
There's no question the former Iowa Hawkeye can help the Chiefs, or any other NFL team for that matter, win games. But can he stay healthy, remains his biggest mystery.
Which of these five players will shine tonight against the Saints?

|[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-5985) A single slow (but not dead) map TaskTracker impedes MapReduce progress
|Tue, 16 Jun 2009 22:10:07 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5985?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12720376#action_12720376 ] Aaron Kimball commented on HADOOP-5985: --------------------------------------- Hong, Good point regarding where reducers pull from. Since multiple waves of reducers are supported, it sounds reasonable to me. So maybe the algorithm changes to this; we modify speculative execution in the following way: * If a map task is launched multiple times via spec. ex., all copies that succeed are eligible to serve reducers concurrently, not just one such copy. * The completion of a map task's processing does not cause speculative copies to be killed; they also run to completion. * Mapper TaskTrackers report back to the JT (during their heartbeat) the number of reduce shards served / available. If any set of mappers are falling "too far behind" the other mappers (e.g., most mappers have served 900/1000 shards, but a couple have only served 50/1000), then we launch additional copies of those mapper tasks on other nodes. * Reducers are advised of additional alternate locations to pull a particular map shard. If multiple sources are available, they randomly choose one. If that source is too slow, it tries a different copy. This gets rid of the need for reducers to "vote" and influence the JT's behavior directly. > A single slow (but not dead) map TaskTracker impedes MapReduce progress > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-5985 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5985 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.18.3 > Reporter: Aaron Kimball > > We see cases where there may be a large number of mapper nodes running many tasks (e.g., a thousand). The reducers will pull 980 of the map task intermediate files down, but will be unable to retrieve the final intermediate shards from the last node. The TaskTracker on that node returns data to reducers either slowly or not at all, but its heartbeat messages make it back to the JobTracker -- so the JobTracker doesn't mark the tasks as failed. Manually stopping the offending TaskTracker works to migrate the tasks to other nodes, where the shuffling process finishes very quickly. Left on its own, it can take hours to unjam itself otherwise. > We need a mechanism for reducers to provide feedback to the JobTracker that one of the mapper nodes should be regarded as lost. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
