USF Senior Writer
TAMPA – The USF men's tennis has finished the collegiate part of their fall season and now enters pro territory.
USF's Ignacio Gonzalez-Muniz, Oliver Pramming and Vadym Kalyuzhnyy will compete as amateurs at the Pensacola Futures Pro Tennis Circuit event that begins Friday. Players will go through four rounds of qualifying – one singles match per day – for a chance to enter the main draw. The Bulls will get to take part in the doubles portion of the event if they make it through singles qualifying.
"We're extremely fortunate to be able to get to play professional tournaments during the year," head coach Matt Hill said. "It's a great fit for our program because our program is designed and set up for players that want to play professional tennis after college."
The Bulls finished up the collegiate part of their fall by gaining championship experience at the USTA/ITA Southeast Regional in Atlanta on Oct. 15. Freshman Sasha Gozun made the singles final, Pramming and Gonzalez-Muniz competed in the doubles championship and freshmen Paul Polarczyk and Kalyuzhnny won the doubles consolation title. USF was the only program from Florida or Georgia to accomplish the three title match feat.
"Overall it was a superb week for us to have three teams in championship matches," assistant coach Brandon Wagner said. "We've been building upon teamwork while practicing really hard this semester and it showed. I was really happy to see some of that hard work pay off."
Head back to GoUSFBulls.com on Thursday night to check out the qualifying draws once they've been completed.

Iraq crisis: Bush gives diplomacy ''weeks not months''
U.S. President Bush said Thursday he would give diplomacy "weeks not months" and said the United States would welcome Saddam Hussein going into exile.
"For the sake of peace, this issue must be resolved," the U.S. leader said amid intensified administration efforts to increase pressure on U.S. allies to disarm Saddam.
Bush met with Italian Premier Silvio Berlusconi. In an Oval Office session with the Italian leader, Bush put allies on notice that he will not wait long to act against Saddam, even if the United Nations refuses to back his actions. "This is a matter of weeks not months," Bush said.
Bush met later with Saudi Arabia's foreign minister, who is trying to rally nations behind a plan to offer Saddam exile. Bush said he was open to the idea.
"Should he choose to leave the country, along with other henchmen who have tortured ... Iraqi people, we will welcome that, of course," Bush said. He said, however, that the U.S. would continue to insist that Iraq disarm, regardless of who governs the nation.
Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal told reporters outside the White House that he had not spoken to Bush about exile, AP reported.
Saudi Arabia's ambassador to the United States, Prince Bandar said exile did not come up. Saudi officials do not believe exile is possible, in part because other Iraqi senior leadership would not allow it, he added. (Albawaba.com)

Seattle Venture Fund Raises $8M For Startups In India
The latest venture capital fund to emerge in Seattle isn't focused on consumer Internet, mobile apps, or even enterprise software (or even, investments in Seattle). Unitus Seed Fund, said Thursday that it has raised $8M for its investment fund, which will focus on funding startups serving low income consumers in India. The funding comes from such investors as Mike Murray (Unitus Labs), Jeff Clark, Vinod Khosla (Khosla Ventures), 500 Startups, and Bob Gay (Formerly Huntsman-Gay and Bain Capital). The company also has co-investors in India include T.V. Mohandas Pai (Chairman of Aarin Capital Partners), and Dr. Ranjan Pai (CEO of Manipal Education and Medical Group). Unitus said its efforts will go towards companies that will provide economic self-reliance, education, and basic necessities to people living at the "base of the economic pyramid".

The Ferris State University men's ice hockey program will have at least five new faces on its 2008-09 team as head coach Bob Daniels announced the signings of forwards Derek Graham (Schoolcraft) and Jordie Johnston (Rosetown, Saskatchewan) along with defensemen Chad Billins (Marysville) and Michael Trebish (Yorkton, Saskatchewan). Goaltender Taylor Nelson (Regina, Saskatchewan) rounds out the Bulldogs' November 2007 early-signing group.
"I'm really excited about this group of players," said Daniels, who's currently in his 16th season at Ferris State and is the Bulldogs' all-time winningest coach. "This (recruiting) class is a solid one and compliments what we already have. These recruits will challenge our current players for big-time roles next season and will press for playing time right out of the gate.
"All five are outstanding, hard-working student-athletes with great character. They, like our previous recruiting class, bring a high level of enthusiasm and positive energy to the program which is a tribute to the recruiting efforts of Drew Famulak and Mark Kaufman," added Daniels.
Derek Graham, a 5-8, 160-pound center is presently midst his second season with the Mahoning Valley Phantoms of the North American Hockey League (NAHL). He presently has registered a team-leading 43 points with 23 goals and 20 assists in 29 outings this season. Graham has also posted seven power-play markers, one short-handed tally, and a pair of game-winning lamplighters as a member of head coach Bob Mainhardt's squad. Graham, who's tied for second place among the NAHL's points leaders and leads the league in goals scored to date, has helped Mahoning Valley to a 18-8-3 second-place record in the NAHL's North Division. He was selected as the NAHL's North Division Player of the Week earlier this season (12/11) after receiving honorable mention recognition on three previous occasions during the 2007-08 campaign. Graham produced 18 goals with 40 assists for 58 points in the 2006-07 campaign and will be reunited with Mahoning Valley alumnus and current Ferris State hockey student-athlete Mike Fillinger. Prior to joining the Phantoms, Graham played for Belle Tire AAA in the Midwest Elite Hockey League (MWEHL).
"Derek is a talented small forward who's very shifty and plays well in traffic," said Daniels. "He can finish and will upgrade our skill level."
Jordie Johnston is currently skating for the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League's (SJHL) La Ronge (Saskatchewan) Ice Wolves under head coach Bob Beatty. The 5-11, 185-pound center has totaled a squad-best 63 points on 28 goals and 35 assists in 41 contests this season for La Ronge, which has compiled a third place 22-15-2 ledger in the SJHL's Itech Conference. Johnston's season points total presently ranks tied for second highest in the league while his goals total is second most on the SJHL leaders list. He also has netted six power-play goals and two short-handed markers this campaign. Johnston was honored as the SJHL's Forward of the Month in November 2007 as a result of leading all SJHL players with 12 goals and 14 assists in 12 outings for the month. He has been tabbed as the SJHL Forward of the Week twice (11/4 and 11/25) this season.
"Jordie's offensive abilities are exceptional," Daniels said. "Along with (Derek) Graham, Jordie will make an immediate impact for us with his high-end skill level. He is an effortless skater and has the ability to make players around him better."
A 5-10, 176-pound defenseman, Chad Billins has posted 12 points on four goals with eight assists in 23 contests this season for the Waterloo (Iowa) Black Hawks of the United States Hockey League (USHL). Billins currently is tied for fifth place in team scoring and ranks second among the Black Hawks' blueliners in points this campaign. The defender ranks tied for 70th on the USHL's overall points leaders chart and is tied for 10th place among the league's blueliners. Waterloo, coached by P.K. O'Handley, currently occupies third place in the USHL's East Division standings with a 13-6-4 record.
"Chad is a mobile defenseman who has great offensive instincts," stated Daniels. "His ability to read the play is exceptional. We expect him to push for time on our power play."
Michael Trebish is currently skating for the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League's (SJHL) Yorkton (Saskatchewan) Terriers, who are coached by Ed Zawatsky. In 36 games this season, Trebish has generated 14 points on three goals and 11 assists. He's presently tied for fourth in team scoring this campaign as the Terriers have tallied a 17-15-2 mark to date in the SJHL's Sherwood Conference. The 6-1, 197-pound defenseman presently ranks 99th in points, 123rd in goals, and 77th in assists among the 2007-08 SJHL statistical leaders. He's tied for 19th place on SJHL's leading scoring defensemen. A season ago, Trebish was the recipient of the team's Scholastic Award and a teammate of Ferris State's Justin Menke.
"Michael is a big, strong defenseman," Daniels said. "He's physically strong in his own end and can make solid outlet passes to the forwards. He possesses a good shot from the offensive zone blueline and will also push for action on the power play."
Taylor Nelson, a 6-1, 170-pound goaltender, is playing with the Humboldt (Saskatchewan) Broncos of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL). Nelson has registered an 18-6-0-1 record with a 2.03 goals-against average (51 goals allowed) and a .919 save percentage in 1,506 minutes of action for the Broncos, who are coached by Dean Brockman. He currently ranks second among SJHL netminders in goals-against average and is tied for fourth in save percentage. Nelson, the SJHL Goaltender of the Month for September 2007, was selected as the SJHL Goaltender of the Week on two occasions (9/23 and 10/21) this campaign. The Ice Wolves have presently amassed a third-place 22-15-2 record in the SJHL's Itech Conference. In the 2006-07 season, Nelson posted a 20-1-0-1 mark between the pipes in his inaugural juniors campaign.
"Taylor is a tall, lanky goaltender, who competes hard around the crease area," said Daniels. "Taylor has a great glove hand with above average ability to play the puck and will push for playing time immediately.
"He reminds me a lot of (current FSU goaltender) Pat Nagle in his style and demeanor," Daniels added.

Submitted to: Global Change Biology
Publication Type: Peer Reviewed Journal
Publication Acceptance Date: 9/12/2000
Publication Date: N/A
Citation: N/A Interpretive Summary: The rising concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere reduces the aperture of stomatal pores on leaves, which control the rate of water loss from plants. A reduction in the rate of water loss from plant leaves would have an important effect on climate, by reducing evaporative cooling. To accurately predict future climates, it is important to quantify the reduction in aperture of stomatal pores which would result from increased atmospheric carbon dioxide. Two different causes of reduced pore aperture at elevated carbon dioxide are known to occur, but have not been separately quantified for crops plants grown in the field. The two causes are a direct effect of elevated carbon dioxide on stomatal aperture and an effect of long-term exposure to elevated carbon dioxide, termed acclimation. In this research, we have separated the direct and acclimatory responses for four species of crop plants. While prior work has assumed that the main effect of rising atmospheric carbon dioxide on stomatal aperture would be the direct effect, these results indicated that this was true for only one of the four species studied. For the other three species, the acclimatory effect was more important. In two of the species, the acclimation of stomatal aperture was related to adjustments in the photosynthetic system caused by long-term growth at elevated carbon dioxide, but in the third species there was no change in photosynthetic characteristics. This work will aid climate modelers forecasting the effects on climate of rising atmospheric carbon dioxide.
Technical Abstract: In order to separate the net effect of growth at elevated carbon dioxide on stomatal conductance into direct and acclimatory responses, we measured midday values of stomatal conductance for plants grown in field plots in open topped chambers at 350 and 700 ppm carbon dioxide for winter wheat, winter barley, potato, and sorghum. The acclimatory response was determined by comparing stomatal conductances measured at 700 ppm for plants grown at both concentations. The direct effect of increasing carbon dioxide from 350 to 700 ppm was determined for plants grown at the lower concentation. For all species the effect of growth carbon dioxide was significant for stomatal conductances measured at 700 ppm, with lower conductance for plants grown at the elevated carbon dioxide. The magnitude of stomatal acclimation was larger for all species on days with low leaf to oair water vapor pressure difference. For barley, there was no other evidence for stomatal acclimation, despite consistent down-regulation of assimilation rate in plants grown at elevated carbon dioxide. In wheat and potato, the magnitude of stomatal acclimation varied in proportion to the magnitude of down-regulation of assimilation rate through the season. In sorghum, stomatal conductance consistently exhibited acclimation beyond the vapor pressure difference effect, but there was no down-regulation of assimilation rate. In none of the species, except barley, was the direct effect the larger component of the net reduction in stomatal conductance.

Vassell defeats Purdy
By Alexey Sukachev
In a twelve-round crowd-pleasing brawl, which kept the audience up on their feet, Ricky Hatton-promoted welterweight Denton Vassell (15-0, 8 KOs) got the victory of his career so far with a close but well-deserved unanimous decision over Lee Purdy (13-2-1, 7 KOs) on Friday night at Robin Park Centre in Wigan, England.
Both fighters turned the first round into a jabbing contest, during which nobody got the edge. In rounds two to four the bout was following a see-saw mechanism. Purdy kept throwing bigger, cleaner punches on occassions, while Vasell used activity as his primary weapon. In round five, however, Denton started to finally get the better of Purdy thanks to his body punching and frequent right and left uppercuts.
In round seven Purdy mounted a fine comeback at the ned, by rocking his foe badly with a terrific combo. Vassell, however, survived the pressure. The end of the fight evolved into a brawl at the middle range when both fighters exchanged thunderous blows in order to land one while taking one in return. Scores were: 117-112, 117-111, and 115-114 – for the new Commonwealth welterweight champion Vassell. Fightnews had it 118-112 – also in his favor.
Lancashire native Craig Watson (17-3, 7 KOs) accomplished a devastating debut at 154 lbs and seized a vacant Commonwealth light middleweight title with an express stoppage of hugely over matched and ultimately raw Ugandan Badru Lusambya (21-2-2, 19 KOs). The African's record looks solid but tonight he proved it had too much padding in it as he came into the fight night (albeit as a late substitute) unprepared and rusty to oppose Watson. In the first, he fired multiple hard but too slow and wide blows and missed almost everyone of them. Watson was cautious adjusting himself to his swinging opponent. The second round turned into a nightmare for Badru and a bless for Watson's left hand, as he floored Lusambya four times – courtesy of his left hooks – before the contest was halted for good, presumably at 2:01 of the second after the fourth decking of the African. 27-year old Watson previously scored a victory over Matthew Hatton.
Also, WBC #2, WBO #7 and IBF #8 super featherweight Sergey Gulyakevich (29-2, 13 KOs) continued his road back to another title opportunity with the points victory over Georgian Nugzar Margvelashvili (17-7, 7 KOs). A sole score was 59-55.
Super bantamweight prospect Craig Lyon (10-0, 3 KOs) was forced to get over several nasty cuts and a heated resistance of Georgian Georgi Gachechiladze (5-3, 1 KO) before he finally stopped him in the midst of the sixth and final round. Gachechiladze was down twice in the first by Lyon's left hooks.
It took cruiserweight prospect Matty Askin (6-0, 3 KOs) only 110 seconds to get the rid of former prospect-turned-journeyman Matthew Ellis (20-10-2, 9 KOs) with a murderous fight hand.

Help with Lug Bolt Key
I need a key in order to remove my wheel lugs. I bought the car 3 months ago and there is NOT one on the car. Where can I purchase one of these. The car is a 2008 550i Sport Package
those look like spline drive "tuner" lugs. 6 point, fairly common, i do not believe thats an actual "lock'
usually used on rims where there isnt enough space to fit a hex head lug. my winter rims use those lugs.
my guess would be the person who owned it before had a winter wheel set that came with those lugs and used them instead of the bmw lugs-- did you check the trunk/glovebox for something like this:
you can probably find it locally-- i recommend buying more than one, when used with impact tools, they sometimes split.

Gingrich Harkens Back To Earlier Era Of Immigration Restriction
During a discussion of the DREAM Act with Newt Gingrich at George Washington University this week, Howard Dean said "the reason this country is such an extraordinary success" is because it is populated with the descendants of self-starting immigrants who took a risk to come here.
Gingrich, a Fox News contributor and possible presidential candidate, replied by invoking Ellis Island as evidence that counter to the "mythology" about immigration history, the United States "had a very long stretch of controlled immigration":
GINGRICH: My wife's grandmother came from Poland at a time when it was occupied and she was actually listed as a Hungarian citizen because her part of Poland was a part of the Austro-Hungarian empire. She arrived at Ellis Island where they wrote down her name, the ship she was on, where she came from, where she was going and they inspected her for health and would have kicked her out if she had not passed the health inspection. So there's this mythology -- we had a very long stretch of controlled immigration, and all of you should someday go to Ellis Island.
It's not clear what Gingrich wants us to take from this. But it's worth noting that U.S. immigration control in the early 20th century was structured around racial bias.
Ellis Island [1] served as an immigration station from 1892 to 1924. During that time Chinese workers were forbidden to enter the country because, as President Cleveland wrote [2] in 1888, the "experiment of blending the social habits and mutual race idiosyncrasies of the Chinese laboring classes with those of the great body of the people of the United States has proved by the experience of twenty years ... in every sense unwise, impolitic, and injurious to both nations."
Chinese exclusion began in 1882, and according to [3] immigration expert Roger Daniels:
It marked the moment when the golden doorway of admission to the United States began to narrow and initiated a thirty-nine year period of successive exclusions of certain kinds of immigrants, 1882-1921, followed by twenty-two years, 1921-43, when statutes and administrative actions set narrowing numerical limits for those immigrants who had not otherwise been excluded. During those years a federal bureaucracy was created to control immigration and immigrants, a bureaucracy whose initial raison d'etre was to keep out first Chinese and then others who were deemed to be inferior.
Historian Hasia Diner explains [4] that the immigration restriction system erected by Congress in 1920, "gave preference to immigrants from northern and western Europe":
Restriction proceeded piecemeal over the course of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but immediately after the end of World War I (1914-1918) and into the early 1920s, Congress did change the nation's basic policy about immigration. The National Origins Act in 1921 (and its final form in 1924) not only restricted the number of immigrants who might enter the United States but also assigned slots according to quotas based on national origins. A complicated piece of legislation, it essentially gave preference to immigrants from northern and western Europe, severely limited the numbers from eastern and southern Europe, and declared all potential immigrants from Asia to be unworthy of entry into the United States.
Daniels noted [5] that "no numerical limitation was placed on Western Hemisphere immigration, partly because many Southwestern and Western legislators insisted that their regions needed Mexican agricultural labor." Congress stipulated, however, that those born in "European colonies in the New World" were still subject to limits -- those affected being "almost all black."
Mexican immigrants [6] moved more or less freely across the border, drawn by a demand for labor [7] in the United States. But when the Great Depression [8] hit, the government began sending Mexican workers, and even some U.S. citizens to Mexico -- only to shift course again when workers were needed during World War II.
In 1965, Congress replaced the racially based quota system with one that "provided preferences for relatives of U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents and for immigrants with job skills deemed useful to the United States," in the words of the Congressional Budget Office [9]. That system has not been significantly reformed since.
So what was Gingrich getting at? Then, as now, movement over the Southern border was driven by economic forces. When the U.S. "controlled immigration" in the early 20th century, that often meant keeping out groups seen as racially inferior.

Unfortunately, there's more bad news concerning holsters for the SP-01 than good news. Not many manufacturers have jumped on board and started producing holsters for this popular Czech pistol. A couple have and their products are worth mentioning.
The best leather IWB or OWB holsters for a stock SP-01 are manufactured by High Noon Holsters in Florida. They are pricey (approaching $100 depending on the model) but they are rock solid and a pleasure to wear. There's also a lead-time for holsters from High Noon. Because they manufacture the holster only after it's requested, it will take several months to arrive at your mailbox.
Everybody likes talking about the Blade Tech holsters for the SP-01. Mostly they are speaking of the competition DOH (Drop-Offset Holster) that is excellent for timed competition shooting but not for concealed carry. Blade Tech also has a holster for the SP-01 with the "Stingray" belt attachment for concealed carry, a very stable platform. Both holsters are made from the thermoplastic Kydex. Beware with a leather belt as the Stingray belt attachment will wear the attractive finish off your belt after repeated mounts and dismounts.
If you are like me and would like the option of carrying the pistol defensively with an accessory on the rail, you are currently out of luck as far as I know. I am exploring making my own Kydex tactical holster that will allow me to carry the SP-01 Tactical with a Viridian laser/light combo in a concealed manner. If I succeed, I'll let you know the outcome. (if you're interested)
I wish you luck and fear my reply is too late to matter for you but, just in case, I thought I'd add some info to your arsenal.
Best of luck.

I'm still here, I've just been very busy. We're in the thick of planning out what we'd like to do for the next version of Visual Studio. If you have any suggestions, please drop them in the comments section. I'm most interested in the sorts of features that would be Visual Studio features (as opposed to language features), and the ones that apply while you are actually editing C# code.
Also, I've changed roles a bit. I'm now the dev lead for the C# IDE team, instead of an individual contributor on the team, so I'm learning what it's like to be a people manager.
I have a few ideas queued up for future blog posts, but I'm definitely interested in your questions too. What parts of features in the C# editor are you curious about? What about work at MS and our processes, is that a topic of any interest?

Sir John, who was at one time governor of Calais; was besieged in a castle of Aquitaine by a great French army, which he defeated with a small force (Walsingham, Ypodigma Neustriæ, Rolls Ser., p. 437); was created knight of the Garter in 1413; and was present at the siege of Rouen in 1418: Sir John died without male issue.
- 2. Sir Thomas, who was Treasurer of Calais during Henry VI's wars in France (Stevenson's Letters, &c., illustrating the wars in France temp. Henry VI, Rolls Ser., ii. passim), and founded a chantry at Newark in 1422 (at the expense of the Duke of Exeter) in memory of his father and mother. Sir Thomas was the father (by Margaret, daughter of Sir Thomas Gresley of Gresley, Derbyshire) of Sir Walter Blount, 1st Baron Mountjoy.
- Also a daughter, Constance, who married John de Sutton V. They were the parents of John Sutton, 1st Baron Dudley.
- From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Blount_(soldier)
- ___________________
- Walter Blount, 1st Baron Mountjoy KG (c. 1416 – 1 August 1474) was an English politician.
- Walter Blount was born about 1416, the eldest son of Sir Thomas Blount (1378–1456) and Margery Gresley and grandson of Sir Walter Blount.
- He was made Steward of the High Peak in Derbyshire and became a bitter rival of the local Vernon and Longford families, replacing the Vernons in parliament as the near permanent Knight of the Shire (1446–1448, 1450–1468) for Derbyshire. He succeeded his father, Sir Thomas Blount, as Treasurer of Calais in 1460, becoming governor a year later as a reward for service rendered to King Edward IV at the Battle of Towton. Edward conferred on him in 1467 rich estates in Devon forfeited by the Earl of Devon; and in 1465 Blount was made lord high treasurer and created Baron Mountjoy. This creation is noteworthy as one of the earliest examples of a baronial title not being of a territorial character; nor the title of a dignity already existing. Blount's great-grandfather had married Isolda, daughter and heiress of Sir Thomas de Mountjoy, and the title was probably chosen to commemorate this alliance.[1]
- He was made a Knight of the Garter in 1472.
- On his death on 1 August 1474 in Greyfriars, London his grandson Edward Blount, 2nd Baron Mountjoy inherited his title. His eldest son (and Edward's father) Sir William Blount had been killed at the Battle of Barnet in 1471.
- Mountjoy married firstly Helena Byron, the daughter of Sir John Byron of Clayton, Lancashire,[2] by whom he had four sons and two daughters.
- William Blount, eldest son and heir, who died in 1471 of wounds received at the Battle of Barnet.[2]
- John Blount, 3rd Baron Mountjoy, second son.
- James Blount, third son.
- Edward Blount.
- Anne Blount.
- Elizabeth Blount.
- By November 1467 Mountjoy married secondly Anne (née Neville), widow of Humphrey Stafford, 1st Duke of Buckingham (d.1460), and daughter of Ralph Neville, 1st Earl of Westmorland.[2]

text: Hello everyone, I have a question about something in the "libdevmapper-event.c" code. I'm building a test application that I can use to setup events I would like to register with dmeventd. As suggested by Jonathan Brassow I've used the framework from lib/mirror/mirrored.c in LVM2 as a template to creating my setup code in the test application. Right now I'm hard coding in the name of the dso and the name of the device I would like to register as a watch point. Here is how I get things going: Create a structure "dm_event_handler" Set char *dso to a stub dso (created for testing). Set char *name to "/dev/mapper/XXXXX_Volume0p1" (one of my dm device names) Call "dm_event_handler_create()" Call "dm_event_handler_set_dso()" Call "dm_event_handler_set_dev_name()" After setting all this up I call "dm_event_register_handler()" passing in the "dm_event_handler" structure. Inside this call the first thing is a call to "_get_device_info()" that sets up my "dm_task" structure. Inside this function I noticed the "dm_task_create()" function sets up the dm_task structure, but leaves uuid as null. We then test uuid (since its null it jumps past the first "if" statement heading into dm_task_set_name()). In here it cuts off the "/dev/mapper/" and sets dev_name to XXXXX and returns as it should. After this long setup here's the problem I'm having. I run through the remaining function calls in _get_device_info() and my uuid for the dm_task is still null. The last call before sending this message off to dmeventd using the "_do_event()" is a call to dm_task_get_uuid() that is passed my dm_task struct. This should return a uuid string, but returns null since my dm_task is never getting a uuid set. Without this I get a failure on the dmeventd side stating I passed a null pointer into dm_strdup via the function _alloc_thread_status (where it checks the uuid field). Just as a test, in my gdb session I set the uuid to some text string, "blah" for example, and I'm able to register my event and get a "SUCCESS" message back in the FIFO. My one clue is that I noticed back in _get_device_info() a line that says /* FIXME Add name or uuid or devno to messages */ Does this mean that there needs to be code added to setup the dm_task uuid? Or is there another call in libdevmapper.h that I'm missing that I can use to set this up? Thank you for any help you might be able to offer; I'm hoping I just missed calling a libdevmapper* initialization function :) Brian Wood Intel Corporation Digital Enterprise Group Manageability & Platform Software Division brian j wood intel com

The Barcelona Cookbook by Sasa Mahr-Batuz and Andy Pforzheimer with Mary Goodbody, includes recipes like Almejas con Chorizo Clams with Sausage; Mussels al Diablo Mussels with Hot Pepper; Calamari a la Plancha Pan-cooked Squid; and Pollo al Pimentos Chicken with Pimentos.
Serves 4
This is Sasa's dish, borrowed from a restaurant he worked in and—like many of our best-selling dishes—Italian through and through. This dish follows the Barcelona precept: simple preparation and big, striking flavors. We serve a large crouton with it, but people will typically go through an additional basket of bread to finish the broth.
1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
2. Clean the mussels by scrubbing well under cold running water and removing any beards. Drain well, transfer to a large bowl, and refrigerate.
3. Pour 1/2 cup of the olive oil into a shallow baking dish. Lay the bread slices in the oil and turn once to coat both sides. Toast the bread for 10 to 15 minutes, turning once or twice, or until golden brown and crisp. Transfer the croutons to a plate to cool.
4. Pour the remaining 1/2 cup of olive oil into a large sauté pan and heat over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add the mussels, tomatoes, and pepper flakes and season with salt to taste. Stir well and cook for about 15 minutes.
5. Add the wine and parsley, cover, and cook for about 3 minutes, or until all the mussels open. (Discard any that do not open.)
6. Pour the mussels and the sauce into a large serving bowl. Garnish with parsley and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Stud the bowl with the croutons and serve.

The second ad shows a young man starting a new band. He enlists the help of Siri to find a place to buy a guitar, learn the chords to a couple of songs including "London Calling" by The Clash. Siri also shows the kid how to play a Bm9, and puts a possible name for the band, "Migraine Headache" on a list. The kid has his personal assistant send an email to a pair of his groupies to tell them that his band will be playing the garage that night. Lastly, this poor deluded kid asks Siri to address him as "Rock God" and Siri says she will comply.
Oh, if you were wondering how Siri responded so quickly to the questions in the commercials, when in real life you find yourself waiting endlessly for a response, it is all done through the magic of television. In the fine print at the end of the ad, you might have caught the phrase "sequences shortened".

Liam Gallagher Praises PSY's "Gangnam Style"
NME reports that Liam Gallagher has called PSY's "Gangnam Style" an "absolute classic" during a Japanese web chat.
He said: "I think it's an absolute classic… I love it. My kid dances to it every morning and it makes me chuckle and spit out my Corn Flakes. I can't wait to hear his new tune."
Gallagher is currently in the studio working on his second album with Beady Eye. He recently slammed his brother again for the success of The High Flying Birds. He said: "Was I pleased for him? What, for splitting up my fucking band? I'm not pleased for him, no! I hope he's fucking happy but he doesn't look it."
When asked about the often-rumored Oasis reunion, he added: "Fuck Oasis as far as I'm concerned and fuck Noel Gallagher. The thought of going onstage with that fucking idiot and hanging out with his daft mates, the pretend drug addicts and all his snobs from Sloane Street. Fuck that, not interested, mate. We're Beady Eye all the fucking way… I've got a new record, I'm buzzing off it."

Turnover has practically ceased in the high-pressure financial sector, but signs suggest many finance chiefs are looking for the exit.
David McCann, CFO.com | US
April 6, 2011
When top execs leave their post, it tells me there may be corruption going on and they want out. It doesnt make sense for a guy that high up to leave unless its to pursue a better opportunity.

waiting on Hurricane Sandy..tonight
went thru one hi tide at 10AM this morning and monitoring the low tide roll out due 5PM EST :huh: she is pushing on it. she is 200 miles from NYC and in the process of making that big left turn to head west.the picture is Robert Moses State Park and Fire Island Lighthouse with the barrier beaches looking west on a nice summer day...i'm 2 miles across the bay on the right side of the pix 50' from the shoreline ...sea weed is great fertilizer with no delivery charge....:wink: http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/j...sesbarrier.jpg
"sea weed is great fertilizer with no delivery" its an ill wind that blows no good. Dig thru that weed, they still haven't found all of Capt. Kids treasure.
There is a cold strong wind here coming in from the north west. Been raining hard off and on for days. 3 degrees C. It will be interesting to see when the two systems clash
The neighborhood, Breezy Point in the borough of Queens, had been extensively flooded by Sandy's record storm surge, and firefighters were hampered in their efforts to bring the blaze under control, a spokesman for the New York Fire Department said.
No casualties were immediately reported and the cause of the fire was under investigation.
A tweet from the FDNY's official Twitter feed said 50 or more homes were destroyed in the fire. The fire still was not under control by 5 a.m. (0900 GMT), the department said.
|All times are GMT -5. The time now is 06:12 PM.
