Best Baby's Start
Natural probiotic choice for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers is the Qiara. It contains patented probiotic strain isolated from healthy breastmilk. Lactubacillus Fermentum has been extensively researched its benefits for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers and their infants.

Thank you for sharing about this probiotic.
In pregnancy, it's also important to get enough Vitamin D. It's essential in pregnancy because Vitamin D helps the body to absorb Calcium (which is important for your baby's developing bones). You can get this naturally from around 15 minutes exposure to the sunlight. It can also be taken in vitamin form (15 mcg is recommended if you are pregnant or breastfeeding).
You can also eat food which are rich in vitamin D, including fortified cereals (which often also have Folic Acid added - again important in pregnancy), eggs and powdered milk.
There's more useful information on What to Eat in Pregnancy here.
Wishing all our pregnant forum members a healthy pregnancy.
Best wishes,

Topic: Mike Leach drama at Texas Tech
Have any of you been following the craziness with all the college coaches this December? First Magino resigns at Kansas, then Urban Meyer announces that he is resigning from Florida due to health concerns. And now the drunk Vince Gill of college football has been fired from his post at Texas Tech. I think out of all the turmoil, I'm most intrigued by the happenings at Texas Tech. None of that story makes sense, and I get the feeling that there is so much more going on than is making it to the press.
I think Tech is going to regret how they are handling things right now. Mike Leach has done a lot for that program, and I can't imagine many coaches will be willing to head to west Texas to coach after seeing how little due process Texas Tech afforded their coach. I also think that James kid is going to get the cold shoulder from his teammates. I don't advocate playing kids when they are hurt, but my gut says that this particular player is not being completely honest about the situation.

As I Lay Dying bandmates and fans respond to frontman's arrest
Listen to As I Lay Dying on iHeartRadio
Members of metalcore band As I Lay Dying are sending a message to their fans in the wake of frontman Tim Lambesis' arrest for allegedly plotting to have his wife killed.
Lambesis' bandmates explain in Wednesday's post on AsILayDying.com that there are "many unanswered questions" and they have no more information than the fans. But they promise to keep everyone as informed as possible and hope that the situation will "become clearer in the coming days and weeks."
But for now, they say their thoughts are with Lambesis, his family, and everyone else affected by this, quote, "terrible situation." The band has yet to address their planned U.S. tour, which is scheduled to start later this month.
Lambesis was arrested Tuesday in Oceanside, California, after allegedly soliciting an undercover detective posing as someone who would murder the rocker's estranged wife. Lambesis is scheduled to be arraigned Thursday.
Many of the band's fans are asking people to hold judgement on Tim Lambesis. Followers of the metalcore band have taken to Facebook and other forms of social media to express their shock and sadness over the accusations, with some writing that they hope some kind of mistake has been made.
Fans have also left hundreds of comments on an Instagram photo of Lambesis that was taken before his arrest during the band's trip to China.

text: I'm not a surgeon, but from a general medical ethics point of view, if the person has full capacity, then I'd suggest this sort of extreme body modification may not be a particularly unethical thing to be involved in. To use a tailoring analogy, if you felt somebody would be better off with a clean look, but they insisted on lots of drape, if you were sure they absolutely understood what they were asking for, you might still proceed. Now, if the person had impaired capacity, or serious psychological issues driving his desire to get this type of surgery, and the surgeon proceeded anyway, absolutely I would consider that unethical. I leave it to you/others to suggest a tailoring analogy here, perhaps using one of our esteemed members and their bespoke tailors... Of course, it can be argued whether it's possible to want this kind of modification without having those serious psychological issues, but there is a theoretical possible subset that might fit those criteria. I suppose, in some respects, in might be akin to surgery for body dysmorphia. Not something I approve of personally, and it is a highly controversial field, but there are those who hold that it is acceptable/ethical to perform. Valid points.

- 3dpl GE
- 3dpl GE the 3D Programming Language Gaming Environment, is mainly a learning tool for novice programmers and children. Aiming at reintroducing the concept of coding to computers the way we used to have BASIC on older systems, but this is 3D, it also features a Modeling tool which is similar to Minecraft, the models can then be programmed to do anything you want. This is a full featured language so it can be used for other applications such as CAD and just for playing games made in 3dpl. It is also real-time interpreted.
- AKFAvatar
- AKFAvatar is a fancy graphical user interface for applications, where an avatar appears on the screen and tells things to the user via a speech bubble. There can also be recorded audio files, so that the user even can hear what it is saying. It can be used for infotainment systems. With AKFAvatar you can easily write cross platform applications in Lua. Lua scripts don't even need to be compiled for the target platform. It has an interface for C programs. Furthermore there is a binding for Free Pascal.
- AKFQuiz
- 'AKFQuiz' lets you make your own quiz games, learning exercises or psychotests. These can be used with grquiz in a graphical environment, or with scrquiz on the text-console. There is also a line oriented variant, linequiz, which can be used as a backend. A CGI-variant, cgiquiz, can be installed on a Web server to offer exercises via Internet or a local network. Or you can use mkquiz, which generates an HTML-file for to use with JavaScript. Those can then be published using any web-space provider.
- Abs
- Learn how to program shell scripts using bash, the command interpreter from the GNU project. Start from the basics and become and advanced programmer.
- AdaGate
- A combination of Portal and Sokoban, AdaGate is a great example of OpenGL programming using the Ada language. It is F.O.S., of course. While exploring a remote south-seas island you make a startling historical discovery. But before you can report your findings, an operational stargate transports you into a curious sequence of dungeons. Your escape will require the logical rearrangement of weird power cells, called Zero Point Modules (ZPMs), that can roll in only two directions. You can shoot your portal guns at the dungeon walls to define a wormhole. But, in order to activate it, all of the ZPMs must be bumped into their sockets. Now, you can only PUSH the ZPMs. That means you will fail if you roll one into a corner or against a wall. Escape each level and find your way back to a beautiful lake on the surface. The degree of difficulty is now selectable. Each game resumes at the beach but progress from previous games is tracked. Complete all 4 levels to access the lake epilog and reset the game. Uses fully modern OpenGL methods in Ada using textures, shaders and uniforms that achieves version 3.3 core profile contexts in a way that is sufficiently mainstream that it easily compiles and runs on both GNU/Linux and Mac OS-X systems. This project serves as a testbed for learning the complexities of modern OpenGL and GLSL. Absolutely no coding efforts or compromises have been made to accomodate proprietary operating systems except for learning how to compile on OS-X. It relies on a thin SDL2 binding from Dan Vazquez, a thin OpenGL binding from "Lumen", a PNG reader by Stephen Sanguine, and SFML-Audio. If one defines "modern" OpenGL to mean version 3.3 or beyond, then this may be the most functionally advanced demonstration of "modern" OpenGL using Ada to be found. The code itself is far from elegant, but serves as a working example, with focus on learning OpenGL. The Ada bindings used are thin, so the relationship to C++ methodology is quite transparent. Developers should note that these Ada bindings are usable as a standalone library for most any OpenGL project. Media Files Note: The particular choices of sound, image, and shader files (*.fs) delivered are not essential to the function of the game and are easily replaced. This software is primarily intended as a tutorial example of modern OpenGL game assembly methods. The only requirements are that sounds be in WAV format, images be in PNG format, and shaders be updated to GLSL 330 specifications.
- Aetherspace
- 'Aetherspace' is a project to produce multiplayer game that blends several different game genres. It is being developed by gamers as a way to learn programming. These games are currently under development and, while fun to look at, are not considered playable yet. Aetherspace has been decommissioned, as it never came to fruition.
- AgeCalc
- Agecalc is a utillity that can be used to calculate dates since birth, what day a person was born, days since last/to next birthday and other data.
- Airtime
- Think of a radio station. Airtime is software that allows multiple people to run it over the internet. Airtime helps them manage the audio archive, upload files, create shows, manage staff, edit the programme calendar and cue playout. Designed specifically for independent media, it's free software.
- Anki
- Anki is a flashcard program which makes remembering things easy. Because it is a lot more efficient than traditional study methods, you can either greatly decrease your time spent studying, or greatly increase the amount you learn. Anyone who needs to remember things in their daily life can benefit from Anki. Since it is content-agnostic and supports images, audio, videos and scientific markup (via LaTeX), the possibilities are endless. For example: - learning a language - studying for medical and law exams - memorizing people's names and faces - brushing up on geography - mastering long poems - even practicing guitar chords!
- Asciinema-player
- asciinema player is a terminal session player written in ClojureScript. Contrary to other "video" players asciinema player doesn't play heavy-weight video files (.mp4, .webm etc) but instead it plays light-weight terminal session files called asciicasts (simple .json files). Asciicast is a capture of terminal's raw output and thus the player comes with its own terminal emulator based on Paul Williams' parser for ANSI-compatible video terminals. It covers only the display part of the emulation as this is what the player is about (input is handled by your terminal+shell at the time of recording anyway) and its handling of escape sequences is fully compatible with most modern terminal emulators like xterm, Gnome Terminal, iTerm, mosh etc. You can see the player in action on asciinema.org. You can also host the player and the recordings yourself.

Man Convicted To Trying To Extort U of L, Tom Jurich
LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- A man was convicted of extortion Wednesday in a case against the University of Louisville Athletic Association.
Using the alias "Melinda White", 36 year old Thomas Ray sent an email to two UofL employees demanding $3.5 million, and threatening to injure the reputation of the school's Athletic Association. Ray claimed to have knowledge of an alleged point-shaving scheme involving the 2013 national champion Cardinal basketball team, that was never substantiated. Ray faces two years in prison, and a maximum fine of $250,000 . He's scheduled for sentencing in November.
After learning of the conviction, U of L Athletic Director Tom Jurich released the following statement: "We are pleased with the decision of the jury. We took the matter very seriously and actively participated with the FBI and the US Attorney's office during the course of the investigation. As I said earlier, we were confident that the accusations made in the communications were not truthful."

Foo Fighters Share Mystery Image Via Scavenger Hunt
Listen to Foo Fighters Radio on iHeartRadio
The Foo Fighters are giving fans something else to contemplate as they wait for the band's big announcement next week. The rockers have been posting a series of coordinates on their social media accounts this week, leading fans to the eight cities they visited to record their new album.
But the band has also included a snippet of artwork with each coordinate, and fans on Reddit have put the pieces together. The complete image reveals a fictional cityscape made up of landmarks from each of the specified cities, such as the Hollywood sign, the Empire State Building, the Space Needle, the Washington Monument, and more.

The Foo Fighters, however, have yet to offer any official explanation for the picture. Some fans suggest it could be the cover art for their new album, while others think it may have something to do with their upcoming docuseries, "Sonic Highways." The HBO show is scheduled to premiere October 17th.

Brevard, N.C.- Landon Reid headed in an Efren D. Escobar corner kick in the first half to give the Tornados a 1-0 lead, but three Belmont Abbey second-half goals lifted the Crusaders to a 3-1 victory on Saturday.
Reid's header found the back of the net at the 11:16 mark in the first half, and Brevard carried the 1-0 lead into the break. The goal was Reid's second of the year after scoring in the Tornados season opener at Erskine on Thursday.
The Crusaders wasted little time in the second half, tying the game at 1-1 when Jose Penaloza scored on a free kick at 57:59. Penaloza gave Belmont Abbey a 2-1 lead with his second goal of the afternoon at the 65:47 mark.
Belmont Abbey's Conor Wells scored the final goal at 71:18 to make the score 3-1. The Crusaders had 13 shots on the afternoon, three of which were on goal.
Brevard returns to action at home against Queens University of Charlotte on Tuesday afternoon at 4 p.m.

For Jody Wheaton, it was love at first sight when she first laid eyes on Jerry Barber.
"I thought he was really, really cute, and he was for me," Jody said.
Jerry, in typical male fashion, wasn't so sure he was in love with Jody. Not yet anyway.
But, hey, he was only 12 years old and in the seventh grade at Jefferson Middle School when he and Jody met in homeroom. Jody was 12, too, and was only three months younger than Jerry. She was just more decisive than Jerry.
But love was to blossom for Jerry too.
"After two years of going to the beach and going to the movies, he finally held my hand," Jody remembered. "The next day he kissed me. We were 14 by then and I told my mother everything. After that first kiss, my mom said, `I wonder what he's going to do next!"'
The "next" came four years later in 1942 when Jerry, now 18, was drafted into the Army Air Corps as the United States entered World War II.
"We were in love and with so much uncertainty because of the war we said, `Why wait?"' Jerry said.
So on Nov. 7, 1942 Jerry and Jody got married at Lakewood Village Community Church.
There were some friends and relatives who thought they were too young to get married, especially with a war raging.
"But we showed `em, didn't we!" Jerry said with a proud smile as he looked lovingly at his bride of 70 years.
Jody smiled back, and as they sat in the living room of the Lakewood Village home they built in 1946, you almost got the feeling that that was the way she looked at Jerry when she first saw him in the seventh grade.
Jerry was born in Santa Barbara on April 15, 1924. "Everyone celebrates my birthday on income tax day," he joked.
His father worked for Bank of America and was transferred to Long Beach.
Jody was born at the old Seaside Hospital in Long Beach on July 22, 1924. Her parents had moved to Long Beach from Cleveland. She attended Lowell Elementary and Horace Mann Elementary before entering Jefferson, where the couple's paths crossed.
They both attended Wilson High School and even made a headline in the school newspaper when they "broke up." The headline blared: "Jerry Drops His Ball and Chain."
"Some people were saying we should see other people," Jody said.
So she went with another boy for one date, but that didn't work out and she immediately went back to Jerry.
"We figured one day was long enough not to be with each other," she said.
Jerry spent the war years training others on how to use bombsights. Jody followed him from base to base with a comforter from her hope chest which, when placed on the end of their bed, made each location feel like home. Jerry became so expert at bombsight training that he was recalled during the Korean War and served two more years in that conflict.
In between wars they built the house in Lakewood Village and raised three children: Teri, Julie and Jim. They have three grandchildren and two great-grandsons.
Before he retired, Jerry operated a wholesale meat business. Jody, after being a stay-at-home mom for 25 years, went to work at various jobs at Douglas Aircraft before retiring in 1992.
What is their secret to 70 years of marriage, which may be the longest in the Greater Long Beach area? (If anyone knows of a longer one, let me know).
"I think it's pretty simple," Jerry said. "We've always been pals. That's the bottom line."
Jody nodded in agreement and added, "Any relationship has its ups and downs. Sometimes I would get upset and not be nice to Jerry. But I loved him and told myself I had to change my attitude. The minute I did he would respond in a nice way. Jerry got silent when we had arguments."
"I was the pouter," he pointed out.
They said they had common values, never argued about money, did not outgrow each other and loved playing golf and cards together. Jody said they think so much alike that they celebrated one anniversary by giving each other the same greeting card.
There also was one anniversary they both forgot.
They both have a great sense of humor, which has helped their lives together.
Asked to name their most memorable moments together, both said they all centered on their family.
Jody teared up when she talked about a scrapbook daughter Julie had put together of "Special Moments" in their life as described by their relatives.
One niece said she practiced writing with her left hand because Jody was left-handed and the niece wanted to be "just like her."
"Dad fostered my love of art," said daughter Teri, whose art graces the walls of their home. A granddaughter wrote, "Grandma gave me a love of gardening."
Jerry and Jody also have traveled all over the world playing golf, one of their favorite activities, although congestive heart failure has slowed Jerry down and he's leaving the golf to her now. Jody is battling chronic lymphatic leukemia but remains enthusiastic and upbeat about the future.
"I've lived a very, very nice life with a husband I adore," she said, holding Jerry's hand.
"And my most memorable moment in life is my wife who has always been there for me," he said.
It's no wonder that the love Jerry and Jody shared in the seventh grade has endured for more than 70 years.
The Barbers will be celebrating their 70th wedding anniversary next month with family and friends, including their best man, Jim Zeller, who will be flying in from St. Louis.
"In their view of life, wealth is measured by the love of family and friends," Julie said. "In this respect, they are a very wealthy couple."

The ongoing search for former LAPD officer Christopher Dorner in the San Bernardino Mountains prompted the closure of seven schools in Bear Valley Unified School District today.
"Due to the ongoing law enforcement investigation and the uncertainty about the whereabouts of Chris Dorner, all schools in the BVUSD will be closed today Feb. 8, 2013," said district Superintendent Kurt Madden on the district's website.
The district locked down all sites at 12:25 p.m. Thursday after Dorner's truck was found burning in the mountains. San Bernardino County sheriff's officials initially said schools would reopen today, but the district decided to play it safe.
Rim of the World Unified School District also closed its school sites today, but it was due to the weather and not the investigation.
The manhunt continues today in the snowy, windy San Bernardino Mountains for fired LAPD Officer Christopher Dorner, who is suspected of killing an Irvine couple and a Riverside police officer in a vendetta against his former department.

Problems with my A S S and other questions '13 328
Hey all,
I've had my '13 328 for almost a week now, Msport loaded in EBII, love the looks, have a few issues that I've searched but wanted feedback for.
ASS(Auto Start/Stop): I know a lot of people hate it, but I like it. . . .when it works. On my first tank of gas, i thought I'd milk it as much as possible to set a benchmark for miles/tankful expectations. 1/4 tank was freeway driving from Glendale to Carlsbad (thanx again Greg @ Pacific). For some reason, even though I didn't push the ASS putton, when I'd stop the car will not shut off, and I get the indicator with circle/slash ASS showing I've turned it off, although I've haven't, and the light on the ASS button is not illuminated. I guess I'll have to take it in to service to see whats up with this, as I've read there is a TIS to change the defaults on ASS, but I just want it work, consistently, especially in EcoPro mode. Oh yeah, and some times, when it does actually turn off, it'll turn back on after a minute or so, even though I didn't take my foot off the gas, is that normal?
BTW, I almost exclusively (for the first tank) been in Eco Pro mode. Seems when I shift to comfort or sport, the ASS works more frequently, but never consistently. Rather annoying, as in stop and go traffic, I'll actually hit the start/stop button when I sit there disappointed the car doesn't turn off. Of course, when the light turns green, I often forget I'm in park, and have to hurriedly put the slushbox in drive (I'm regretting my departure from 6MT quite a bit atm)
As for mileage, I'm pretty disappointed too. I know, no one really buys a BMW to save gas, but I honestly tried to just feather the throttle, and even coast on this first tank to eek out whatever mileage I could get. I know, everyone says it takes a few thousand miles to get really good mpg, but I made an effort, and for the first tank: 340 range, and 21.6 MPG. And this was in the tediously boring and underwhelming Eco Mode. bummer.
Hopefully it'll get better as it goes through "break in" process. Still love the car, but putting it in sport is where I love it most, as the mpg's plummet to single digits . . .
Cabin Noise:
Bummed and surprised to hear a bit more road noise than the E93, but whats really driving me nuts is a wind-whistling noise in the upper cabin area over 65 mph or so. At first I thought a window or sunroof was partially open, but nope, and its present every time I drive at speed. I know, easy solution is turn the radio up, but on a $50k car I expected better fit/finish. Not sure if there's a remedy for that niggle. Also, the driver side panel on the side of the dash was "hanging" off the other day, like it had never been properly fastened in the first place. I pushed it back into place, but was kinda discerning to see.
The trim pieces for the Msport are obviously subjective, but I really dislike the cheap/cheesey hexagonal metallic trim, and wished it came in the warmer, classy wood trim all my other BMW's had. Was not enough to make me forego the Msport for exterior looks and suspension, but its a constant reminder of the cheaper feeling of the F30.
Engine off, ACC stays on:
This is new to me as well. I really wanted Comfort Access(CA) as it was the only thing I didn't have on my E93, but when I hit the start/stop button, the engine stops, but the audio and lights remain on. Even after walking away from the car, if I don't hit the start/stop button twice, the radio will play for at least 5 minutes afterwards, unless I lock the doors. Thats not normal, is it?
Bluetooth and Streaming:
I dislike the fact that BMW took a marketing gamble and went with Iphone compatibility exclusively, rendering the space inside the console somewhat wasted for us with Android phones. I already got chastized once for asking about A2DP streaming, but it still doesn't work for me, and I'm guessing I'm not alone. I haven't tried to hook up through USB, but not even sure the phone will even fit in the space created specifically for the already-outdated iphone.
OK, I know that sounds all negative, but I'm really working hard to love this car as much as all my other BMW's. I've had various trims, from 7 series and 335's, but this is by far the "cheapest" car, in both quality and price (even though its over $50k) I can anticipate the responses being an eye roll and maybe some advice about buying a Prius or a cadillac, but just wanted to express my initial impressions for those on the fence. I still am a fan of BMW, and still love this car, but I need to get these issues worked out.
thanx for any thoughts or comments,

The n3 is stil very far from being plug and play with any Linux I've tried so far. when using ubuntu 9.04 the adapter is plug and play with no support for injection.
First I tried the Apocalypse drivers and with it I could get airodump to see only channel 6. This was on backtrack 4 pre final. I was then referred to the aircrack forum. They linked me to (could not post link, but if you google aircrack and look at the one marked tutorial you will find it. or search aircrack n3 and you will find my post and follow the first link.)
the tutorial is a great one for the new Alfa or the 36 Alfa and is for Ubuntu 9.04. I did a clean install of Ubuntu and followed this tutorial and was able to get the rt2800usb drivers to show in airmon for wlan1. Nothing shows in the network manager or Raylink's utility. airodump wouldn't show anything. Kismet wouldn't show anything.
I hear of people saying they have more luck with the 2870 chipset using backtrack 4 beta or bt3 and I hear that it works flawless in backtrack 2 with Hirte drivers. I'll look into that today and report back how that works. As far as bt4 pre release goes, it's a no go.

From the Online Etymology Dictionary:
1471, "soft mass formed by chemical manipulation," from M.L. amalgama, "alloy of mercury (esp. with gold or silver)," an alchemists' word, perhaps an alt. of L. malagma "poultice, plaster," from Gk. malagma "softening substance," from malassein "to soften," from malakos "soft." The word may have come from Gk. via Ar. al-malgham. Amalgamation in the figurative sense of "combining into one uniform whole" is from 1775.
According to Microsoft Encarta, amalgam originally meant "soft alloy" in English, but it's easy to see how its use could quickly spread to mean "mixture", in any metaphorical sense.
Interesting to me, also, is the addition of a new noun form, amalgamation, in 1775, which seems to imply that the verb form should be amalgamate -- and 233,000 hits on a Google search for the latter is proof positive that the word is being used, at least. I've never heard amalgamate used by anyone, but it does sound natural as the verb form. Amalgamation appears to be used more often to describe mergers, in a more general sense, or the act that forms the merger.
Of course, any Greek assimilation of an Arabic term is interesting in its own right. I wonder what the event was that introduced this word to the Greeks?

The annual NASCAR weekend at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana is less than four weeks away, and the excitement is starting to build for the Royal Purple 300 and Auto Club 400.
"We had an awesome viewing party (Sunday at Ontario's Dave and Buster's), our biggest to date," track president Gillian Zucker said of the crowd estimated at 500 that watched the Daytona 500. "Our fans are really anticipating the (March 22-24) weekend.
"They're exited about the Gen 6 cars. Steve O'Donnell (NASCAR senior vice president of racing operations) thinks that tracks like ours will benefit the most from the new cars."
The speedway's media blitz started this week with radio, television and outdoor advertising. Zucker said sales for the March 24 Sprint Cup event are "trending really, really well."
Attendance has increased each of the last two years.
"I think we'll have a good turnout," Zucker said. "It's looking positive."
There's plenty to sell.
The speedway will have packages centering around drivers such as Jimmie Johnson, Kevin Harvick, Travis Pastrana and Danica Patrick.
"If a driver appeals to certain fans, we'll get some type of package together," Zucker said. "We'll work to get fans in touch with those athletes."
There are other factors that will aid fans. Wal-Mart will set up a store in the infield and Metrolink will be available to transport fans to Fontana for $19 from various Southern California train stations such as Oxnard, Lancaster and Oceanside, among others.
"What makes it all exciting is the lineup," Zucker said. "We'll have the crowd favorites like Dale Earnhardt Jr., Tony Stewart, Jimmie Johnson and Danica, and the up-and-coming Nationwide racers."
Perris Auto Speedway opens its 18 th season Saturday with a full card starting at 6 p.m.
"Eighteen seasons. We have had some good years along the way, but on paper 2013 looks to be the best yet," promoter Don Kazarian said. "We are going to have something for everyone."
On the opening card will be the Amsoil OilTwins.com PASSCAR Stock Car Series featuring street stocks, American factory stocks, modifieds, super stocks and sport mods.
The Riverside County half-mile clay oval also is home to several other series. The USAC/CRA sprint cars is one of the country's best and will debut at the speedway on March 9. That series will be accompanied by the senior sprints (for drivers 45 and older); the California lightning sprint cars and the Young Gun 360 sprint car series (for drivers 14 to 21), which begins April 6.
The World of Outlaws sprint cars will return to the site on April 13.
The popular "nights of destruction" will return for the third consecutive year for four shows. The first is on April 27.
NASCAR history will be made Friday at Phoenix International Raceway with the debut of the NASCAR Mexico Toyota Series. A field of 32 racers is expected, including 2012 champion Jorge Goeters, Homero Richards, Daniel Suarez, Ruben Pardo and Antonio Perez.
This is the 10 th season of the series, including the last seven with NASCAR. The remaining schedule calls for 14 races at eight venues.
"There are many NASCAR fans in Mexico," said Pardo, who finished fourth in the series a year ago. "We race Chevys, Fords, Dodges and Toyotas. The series is growing; we used to average 10,000 fans, now it's about 20,000. We had a high of 40,000."
The international race will have an unusual format. The 75-lap event is divided into an opening 50-lap race and a 25-lap sprint to the finish.
"I'm very excited to be part of this project," said Pardo, who raced a full-season in 2006 in the K&N East and was rookie of the year. "This is an opportunity to show Hispanics and Americans our series.
"We would all like to compete in NASCAR."
Antron Brown and Tony Schumacher, NHRA Top Fuel dragster drivers, heaped praise on their new canopies following accidents at the season-opening Winternationals.
A week later at the Arizona Nationals, Susan Wade of CompetitionPlus.com found out not everyone is convinced about the canopy's future. At the moment, only the Don Schumacher Racing entries (Schumacher, Brown and Spencer Massey) and Brittany Force use the canopy.
"From looking at it, I think there's a lot of unanswered questions," said Bob Vandergriff Jr., who drives a dragster and fields a three-car team. "Obviously there's a plus and a minus to everything. It looks like it kept things out of the cockpit. The minus side of it is we did see fire in it.
"The concern I would have is if there had been a broken fuel line or something that was spraying fuel in that thing while it was on fire and he was underneath that glass. It might have turned it into a microwave oven for (Brown)."
Kalitta Motorsports vice president and crew chief Jim Oberhofer voiced similar concerns.
"It looked like (the Safety Safari rescue team) were having some issues getting (Brown) out, opening the canopy. The other thing, too, is there are quite a bit of pictures where there are flames inside of that thing," Oberhofer said.
Schumacher's response: "A lot of the guys say they don't want to, for whatever reason. Hey, it's a Top Fuel dragster. It's going 330 mph. You might catch on fire. If you have a fear of that, pick another job."
Scribbled notes in the margins of a Mello Yellow notebook:
Victorville Route 66 Speedway will debut the United Racing Association on Saturday. It's a new series created specifically around open-wheel, short-track racing such as unlimited sprint cars, limited sprint cars, unlimited midgets and limited midgets. ... According to Fox on figures released by Nielsen Media Research, the Daytona 500 earned a 9.9/22 rating/share, averaging 16.7 million viewers, the highest-rated and most-watched Daytona 500 since 2008. It was a 24 percent ratings gain over last year and a 22 percent rise in average viewership. ... James Stewart, riding for Chino-based Yoshimura Suzuki, won the AMA Supercross main event last Saturday in Atlanta. He's now eighth in points with Davi Millsaps in front ... The invitational Motegi Racing Super Drift Challenge will be the first night event at the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach. The 16-car field will compete at 7 p.m. on April 19-20 and follow the IndyCar race on Sunday, April 21. ... Brian Redman, whose acclaimed career as a racer of sports cars, Formula One and F5000 s spanned more than 40 years, will be honored at the "Road Racing Drivers Club Evening with Brian Redman" in Long Beach on April 18. Previous honorees were Dan Gurney, Parnelli Jones, Roger Penske and Jim Hall.

The Right-Wing Media's Connection To The NRA-Gun Industry Nexis
Blog ››› ››› MATT GERTZ
At Bloomberg BusinessWeek, Joshua Green reports that for all the fearmongering from gun activists, President Obama has actually helped the gun industry, which he says has seen huge sales during his presidency:
In the time since he took office, gun sales have soared. The government doesn't track individual sales. But the FBI criminal background check required to purchase a gun is considered a reasonable proxy, and these have hit record numbers each year Obama has been in office. This year, they're on track to surpass 15 million for the first time.
Ruger has done especially well. Since Obama's inauguration the company's stock price has risen more than 400 percent, making it a better investment than gold, which is up 113 percent. "They've been outstanding in offering new products, especially in the concealable handgun segment," says Jim Barrett, an analyst at CL King who tracks the gun industry and rates the company a "strong buy."
Analysts anticipated a brief jump in firearm sales after the election as many gun owners, fearful that a new Democratic President would move to ban assault weapons, fortified their home arsenals. "Initially, what spiked were the tactical rifles, the stuff Rambo might use," says Barrett. As a result, 2009 was "a blockbuster year."
So was 2010. And so is 2011.
CEO Michael O. Fifer alluded to this concern in a July sales call. "I think half of the people in the firearms industry, if asked, would hope [Obama] is not President, but then will secretly go out and vote for him again," Fifer said.
Not all the available data suggests that such a boom is occurring. Indeed, the number of households owning a gun has been in long term decline. But whether or not the gun industry and their enablers have actually succeeded in increasing gun sales by frightening Americans gun owners into thinking that confiscation is around the corner, there's certainly no doubt that they've tried to do so.
While Green does a great job in pointing to the National Rifle Association's role in ginning up the fears of government confiscation of firearms in order to boost gun sales (a role for which they are rewarded by donations from the gun industry), he leaves out the right-wing media's important position in this cycle.
Following President Obama's election, several right-wing radio hosts including Sean Hannity warned their listeners that the new administration would outlaw and confiscate all guns. At roughly the same time, the Los Angeles Times reported that "gun buyers across the country are flocking to gun stores to stock up on assault rifles, handguns and ammunition."
Since then, the right-wing media has regularly pushed similar claims. They've baselessly warned of the alleged confiscatory tendencies of Nancy Pelosi and Sonia Sotomayor. They've used everything from the attempted assassination of Rep. Gabby Giffords (R-AZ) to the recent rule requiring gun dealers to inform the ATF when someone buys more than one of certain types of guns a week to promote their conspiracies.
These kinds of dishonest claims may boost the bottom line of the gun industry, but they also bring with them a body count. In April 2009, Richard Poplawski, a 22-year-old neo-Nazi, shot and killed three police officers who were responding to a domestic disturbance call at his Pittsburgh home. According to one of his friends, Poplawski was afraid of "the Obama gun ban that's on the way." He also reportedly "loved Glenn Beck," who regular promotes these gun confiscation conspiracies.
Indeed, Beck responded to the Pittsburgh shooting by both denying any personal responsibility for the crime and claiming that Obama "will slowly but surely take away your gun or take away your ability to shoot a gun, carry a gun." In June, Beck went as far to ask his audience, "why would you get a gun?" before pointing to a picture of President Obama and regulatory official Cass Sunstein.
How does the right-wing media benefit from stoking the fears of their audience in this manner? Just as the NRA is the recipient of gun industry donations, conservative radio hosts may find themselves the recipients of gun industry advertising. It is a lucrative cycle, but potentially a deadly one.

Just fyi, works as advertised for me following the instructions you linked. I have the 901 btw.
Using the information here (showthread.php?t=16340) I did the following;
1) Downloaded 901_net_gfx.lzm and placed it into /BT3/optional/
2) Edited syslinux.cfg, adding:
I booted the EEE from the USB disc with the 'EEE' option. Resolution is native 1024x600.LABEL eee
KERNEL /boot/vmlinuz
APPEND vga=785 initrd=/boot/initrd.gz ramdisk_size=6666 root=/dev/ram0 rw load=901_net_gfx
Wifi however doesn't work. Using madwifi I can scan for networks, but wpa_suppliment won't start.
I've also tried ndsiwrapper, but then the card no longer scans for networks.
I don't want to install BT3 to the hard disc, but ofc I'd love wifi to work.
After writing a small wpa_supplicant.conf and executing: wpa_supplicant -D madwifi -i ra0 -c wpa_supplicant.conf
I received the error: Unsupported driver 'madwifi'
So I've come to the conclusion that wpa_supplicant was compiled without madwifi support. Not sure how I can fix this without installing BT3 to the hard disc.
As mentioned above, I was following this thread; showthread.php?t=16340&page=2
Specifically this post; showpost.php?p=96774&postcount=11
(Sorry, still can't post links yet...)
I have copied the module onto the disc in the correct place, set it to correct permissions, and added a bootup option into the conf file.

This leads me to believe that the module I downloaded doesn't work as advertised, or I have missed a step or failed to install it properly.
Just fyi, works as advertised for me following the instructions you linked. I have the 901 btw.
come to think of it, dunno about the wpa part. just sniffing with a hwug1 at this point.
but yes, I get 1200x600. as a side note, I didn't add a new entry, I simply tacked on the "load=901_net_gfx" to the end of the VESA KDE entry and it worked.
I really don't understand this. I've tried re-downloading everything, re-formatting the USB disc etc.
It's not really a complicated procedure, so I have no idea why it isn't working as intended. Frustrating.

|Shooting Stars
|Danny Cannon
|Danny Cannon
|Original Airdate
|October 13, 2005
Shooting Stars is the fourth episode of season six of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.
The CSIs are called in when a homeowner finds a disheveled group of teenagers dumping a body in his yard.
It is soon discovered that the group is a cult, but when Grissom and Catherine find the cult's headquarters, they find the members all dead from what appears to be a mass suicide.
As the team investigates further, they find out that the mass suicide didn't go as the cult leader planned.
- Warrick's wife Tina is featured in this episode. She works at a hospital with her ex.
- The Orionids Meteor Showers are considered a Major meteor shower. They scheduled to appear October 21, 2005.
- Nick hesitates at first to go into the bunker. This is a reminder of when he was buried alive in the two-part Season 5 "Grave Danger, Part 1" and "Grave Danger, Part 2."
- When Grissom goes to enter the underground compound he only has his flashlight on his belt (on his back). What happened to the canteen he was wearing when he started? In later scenes inside the compound, he has it back on.
- In the scene showing the meteor shower we can estimate five meteors per second (300 per minute) The actual maximum rate of the Orionids is 15 per minute or one every four seconds. A less than impressive shower from Comet Halley's particles.
- Grissom looks up at a meteor shower he identifies as the Orionid shower. The camera shows a sky scene with the constellation Orion in the background, and a number of meteor trails moving from left to right across the star formation. This is dead wrong. Meteor showers are named for the region of the sky they appear to be coming from, e.g., Leonid (Leo), Perseid (Perseus). The meteor trails should appear to be coming straight at the viewer from Orion, not crossing it.
- When Catherine finds the bowl full of burnt letters, Grissom tries to photograph the bowl in the state the cult members left it in. However, she rifled through and disturb the scene before he takes the pictures.
- Grissom: The methodology here appears to be similar to the Heavens Gate Cult in California several years ago. They committed mass suicide to shed their Earthly bodies and hitch a ride on the spaceship hidden in the tail of a Hale-Bopp comet.
- Catherine (after finding semen on the bed sheets): Well, these Earthly bodies got a good workout first. Big room, big bed, light show. This cult was about gettin' laid.
- Grissom: Well, Jim Jones and Charles Manson used sex to manipulate their followers. I'm guessing that they were timing their suicide to the Orionid meteor shower last night.
- Catherine: So while you were watching shooting stars, they were dying?
- Grissom: There's 12 bunks in there, one bed in here, there should be 13 bodies.
- Catherine: Two people are missing.
- Grissom: Maybe they caught the space ship.
- Catherine (pulls out the bowl of burnt letters): Would you settle for a flying saucer?
- David: Looks like a money belt.
- Dr. Robbins: Gives new meaning to strapped for cash.
- Grissom (to Catherine): Are you having the same mirage, as I am?
- Catherine: Yeah, a silver Beamer in the middle of the damn desert.
- Greg (to Sara): I also found a melted name tag with a sun burst logo. Figured I'd let my finger do the walking.
- Sara: You scanned the Yellow Pages.
- Greg: I knew the first three letters. By the way, do you know how many companies in Las Vegas start with S-U-N?
- Sara: I so don't care.

I've noticed that people are often asking questions here which are either answered already, show that they have no knowledge or just lack the information to give a useful answer.
Asking questions already answered (sometimes many times) will result in a closed topic and maybe an infraction.
Showing that one has no knowledge isn't too bad basically. We all have been there. But before asking a question consider that noone might feel to explain how to check if your wireless card is being installed, how VMs work and so on.
As asking questions, give us all the details needed in order to get any useful answer.
Asking questions without giving details will result in closed threads in the future.
Asking the totally wrong way:
Hey guys, my wireless isn't working, what's wrong with it?
Asking the wrong way:
Hey guys, I've searched a lot and tried stuff but my wireless isn't working in my VM.
Asking the correct way:
Hey guys, I've got a <xyz> adapter. I've searched but still couldn't figure out how to get it working. I've got the VM Ware image running. My card is showing up under iwconfig but <name of the command> gives me the output : <output of the command>
This also goes for other questions, not only the wireless related ones ;)

South Carolina Festival of Dance to highlight dance arts in state
The University of South Carolina will celebrate the quality and diversity of dance with performances by some of the state's most accomplished dancers and up-and-coming dancers at its first annual South Carolina Festival of Dance Oct. 7-9.
Sponsored by USC's Dance Program, the festival also will offer master classes and workshops taught by some of the state's top dance professionals.
Performances are set for 7:30 p.m. Oct. 7-8 at the Koger Center for the Arts. Master classes for dancers age 11 and older will take place from 8:15 a.m.-5 p.m. on Oct. 8 and 9 a.m.-4 p.m. on Oct. 9.<
Tickets for the performances are $10 for students, $14 for USC faculty and staff and military and $16 for the general public. Tickets can be purchased at the Carolina Coliseum box office or by phone at 803-777-2551.
The Oct. 7 evening will feature performances by the Columbia City Ballet, Columbia Classical Ballet, Unbound, Vibrations, Revolve Aerial Dance, Carolina Ballet Theatre, Dance FX, The Power Company and FresNO Dance COllective.
On Saturday night, audiences will experience the dedication of the best of South Carolina's nonprofessional troupes. Eight schools and companies selected by a panel of nationally recognized dance professionals will perform. They include Aiken Civic Ballet, Ballet Spartanburg's preprofessional company, Columbia City Jazz Dance Company, Columbia Ballet School, Just Dance!, Low Country School of the Performing Arts, Southern Strutt and York County Ballet Company.
The USC Dance Company and selected professional companies will also perform during the showcase. Performances will include one by Greenville flamenco dancer and instructor Jose de Guadelupe. De Guadelupe is an independent performing artist, arts programmer and a member of the South Carolina Arts Commission's roster of approved artists for the Arts in Education program (AIE). Additional performances include FresNO Dance COllective performing a duet, and a piece by Annex Dance, an internationally recognized classical modern dance company, with an edge.
The master classes and workshops will be taught by the state's top dance professionals, representing a wide variety of dance styles, ranging from beginner to advanced skill levels.
A workshop specifically for dance educators will also be led by internationally recognized dance education specialists.
The festival was organized by USC graduate student Kindra Becker to support and promote the talent and creativity of dance in South Carolina.
"We knew that the festival would be great for the state and dance community but were so humbled by the outpouring of support and interest we've received," said Becker, who is studying in the School of Library and Information Science.
The application for master classes can be found online at http://www.cas.sc.edu/dance/2011/scfod.html.
All dancers must have dance experience and be at least 11 years old.
For more information on the festival, contact Kindra Becker at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Galerie Lelong Artists on View at Art Basel Miami Beach, Now thru Dec 9
Galerie Lelong New York and Paris's presentation for Art Basel Miami Beach 2012 will feature program highlights such as installations and sculpture, historical works on paper, Jannis Kounellis's drawings in Art Kabinett, and a new Jaume Plensa installation for Art Public. Other artists on view include Petah Coyne, Angelo Filomeno, Günther Förg, Alfredo Jaar, Lin Tianmiao, Cildo Meireles, Ana Mendieta, Hélio Oiticica, Emilio Perez, Kate Shepherd, Sean Scully, Kiki Smith, and Nancy Spero. The works will be on view today, December 6-9, 2012 in booth G01. For more information, visit miamibeach.artbasel.com. For more about the featured artists, read below.
Jannis Kounellis is represented by a selection of drawings spanning his career as part of Art Kabinett and his wall-sized installation Untitled (2002). Kounellis's drawings reflect his long-time interest in signs, symbols, language, and the breakdown of culture in the modern world. Untitled, a wall piece made of jute bags of coal, fabric, and carbon steel plates, evokes the fragmentary and accumulative nature of contemporary society ever-present in his work.
Pictured: Untitled (detail), 2002
Jaume Plensa's site-specific installation Silent Poets (2012) will be on view in Collins Park for Art Public. Poets is composed of two identical, internally-lit, resin figures that constantly change colors twenty-feet above the busy traffic and noise of South Beach. Lelong's booth will showcase the artist's new sculpture in linden wood, Marianna H (2012). Both works demonstrate Plensa's continued interest in the body, and its role as the carrier of the human soul.
Pictured: Silent Poets, 2012
Petah Coyne's suspended sculpture Untitled #1375 (No Reason Except Love) (2011-2012) is her most spectacular hanging work to date. Albino taxidermy peacocks and pheasants are seen against a bed of dark silk flowers The sculpture's evocative title, No Reason Except for Love, provokes us to consider life, loss, and the possibility of love even after death.
Pictured: Untitled #1375 (No Reason Except Love), 2011-2012
Alfredo Jaar's work is informed by world events which he personalizes to include known text or images, or a combination of both. His neon wall piece Teach Us to Outgrow Our Madness (1995) is based on the title of a novel by the Nobel Prize-winning author Kenzabur? ?e. The title directly refers to the effects of the Hiroshima bombing. Jaar takes this metaphor into the present day, using ?e's text to highlight the sprig of hope that can still be found among global traumas.

About 3 more wins on this trip and we will probably clinch on the road...and that is just fine by me. The 10,000 that show up next Monday can cheer for the reigning Central Division Champions.

Can't win without 'em
"No matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are you're going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference." ~Tommy Lasorda
Hopin' to see a card for one of the best catchers we've ever had, #6, the man from Strawberry Plains. Somebody must have an Ed Bailey.
I hope no one shows up for a game next Monday night since the Reds are off that day and those folks would be a mighty disappointed group down at GABP, LOLAbout 3 more wins on this trip and we will probably clinch on the road...and that is just fine by me.

Domestic Revenue Aircraft Departures (monthly data, not seasonally adjusted)
Average Domestic Flight Stage Length (monthly data, not seasonally adjusted)
Frequency of aircraft departures, the number of connections required for a single trip, and the match between available flights and travelers desired origin and destination points are all important determinants of scheduling convenience. Because data on connections are currently not available in a suitable format, flight stage length is used here to supplement the information on departures.
Flight stage length is the distance between take-off airport and landing airport. If the mix of origin and destination points are held constant, then an increase in flight stage length implies fewer connections are required for a trip and, therefore, higher quality of air passenger services.
The key relation is that departures and flight stage length will tend to move in opposite directions when changes are due to changes in the number of connections. For example, a trip from city A to city B with a connection in city C will have two departures, but generally a shorter average flight stage length, than the direct flight from A to B with a single departure.
|Domestic Flight Availability
|Revenue aircraft departures (thousands)
|Revenue aircraft departures percent change from same month previous year
