Wednesday, September 30 2009 - Legal Response to 9/11
Decision On Petition's Legality Expected By End of Week
Supreme Court Justice Edward Lehner has begun consideration of NYC CAN's motion to reject Referee's Louis Crespo's recommendation that the NYC CAN 9/11 petition not be submitted to the voters on November 3. The petition would ask whether or not there should be an independent New York City investigation into 9/11.
Responding to a motion brought by NYC CAN attorney Dennis McMahon, a hearing was held Tuesday September 29 at the New York State Supreme Court, and concluded with the understanding that the Court will likely render a decision on the petition's legality by Friday, October 2.
The City's previously assumed deadline of September 30—spurred by the printing deadline for military absentee ballots—was brushed away by Judge Lehner as he suggested the printing of absentee ballots would likely not be ordered on Wednesday, September 30, since runoff elections were being held while the Court was in session. Even if the ballots were ordered on Wednesday, Lehner indicated, this should not prevent the referendum from being put before the vast majority of the electorate who would be voting in New York City.
Judge Lehner's postponement of the supposed deadline came after McMahon
had requested that the Judge carefully consider both sides' arguments,
rather than render a rush decision and fail to adequately contemplate NYC CAN's
legal arguments, as the Referee had done.
Over the next few days the Judge will go through both sides' legal memos, as well as the applicable statutes and case law.
Surprisingly, the file forwarded from the Referee to the Judge did not contain
NYC CAN's legal memo, which McMahon told the Court seemed apropos, since
the referee had barely considered the Petitioners' memorandum of law.
When asked by the Judge whether or not there has been an investigation into
9/11 by New York City authorities, Steve Kitzinger, the City's lawyer,
replied, "It's irrelevant", to which the packed courtroom
was loudly disdainful, some openly laughing in disbelief. At which point Mr.
Kitzinger prevailed upon Judge Lehner to quiet the crowd, which the Judge did.
"The City never did anything?" retorted the Judge in disbelief. Nothing, Kitzinger admitted.
As part of his unrelenting attack on the NYC CAN petition, Kitzinger repeatedly alluded to the proposed commission's intention to investigate national security matters beyond its jurisdiction such as "intelligence failures". A simple reading of the petition shows such assertions to be completely unfounded.
Later, Judge Lehner seemed unimpressed by Kitzinger's argument pertaining to the limited jurisdiction of New York City to investigate 9/11, on the grounds of inherent limits to a municipality's subpoena power. "You can investigate anything, can't you?" the Judge asked rhetorically. "Because somebody may have jurisdiction over certain witnesses doesn't mean you can't have a commission."
On the complicated question of the commission being a privately funded entity but still having subpoena power granted under the auspices of New York City government, the Judge made comments that gave the Petitioners hope for a favorable ruling. "You want a law that says this private commission shall have the right to subpoena people?" to which McMahon assented. Offering similar examples, the Judge noted, "A private lawyer can issue subpoenas... a lawyer issues [subpoenas] in connection with an action [during] litigation in court."
After the hearing, the consensus among NYC CAN members and supporters in attendance was that Judge Lehner is intrigued by the proposed referendum, and that he will give both sides' arguments due consideration.
Near the end of the hearing, McMahon stated emphatically, "The citizens are desperate. We want to find out what really happened on 9/11."

Why do people keep mocking a CB to the Titans? The CBs are not the problem. The safeties and pass-rush are. Star should be the pick.

Minnesota will absolutely not pass up on a WR. If Hunter is available, he will be a Viking.

Agree with Scar here we are more than fine at OG since we took Peter Konz last year and still have mike Johnson and Garrett Reynolds if need be for the position.
I would probably go with Dion Jordan DE there for us.

Great if the Bears are picking 32nd overall but Fluker is a poor pick he isnt a 1st round talent and doesnt fill a need for us
A defensive playmaker like Amerson, Ogletree, Minter or Mosley would be better.

I have to agree with SteelKing here, the Vikings would be foolish to pass on a talent like Justin Hunter for a DT.

Methods and Limitations
We estimated the percentage of the U.S. diabetic adult population aged 60 years or older who self-reported needing assistance with 'activities of daily living' (ADL) and 'instrumental activities of daily living' (IADL) using data from the CDC's National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) of the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). Conducted continuously since 1957, NHIS is a health survey of the civilian, noninstitutionalized, household population of the United States. The survey provides information on the health of the United States population, including information on the prevalence and incidence of disease, the extent of disability, and the use of health care services. The design of the survey has been described elsewhere.1, 2
Adult respondents were asked whether a health professional had ever told them they had diabetes. To exclude gestational diabetes, women were asked whether they had been told they had diabetes other than during pregnancy. To assess ADL, adult respondents were asked "Because of a physical, mental or emotional problem, do you or anyone in the family need the help of other persons with personal care needs, such as eating, bathing, dressing, or getting around inside this home?" To assess IADL, adult respondents were asked, "Do you or anyone in your family need the help of other persons in handling routine needs, such as everyday household chores, doing necessary business, shopping, or getting around for other purposes?" For our analyses, a positive response to the question indicated functional limitation relative to ADL or IADL. The estimated percentage of the diabetic population needing assistance with ADL or IADL is presented by age groups (60–74, 75+), race/ethnicity (whites, blacks, Hispanics), sex-age groups, and race/ethnicity-age groups. Three-year averages were used to improve the precision of the annual estimates, and 2-year averages were calculated when 3 years of data were not available.
Data Limitations
The NHIS may underestimate the true percentage of older adults reporting limitation in performing ADL or IADL for several reasons. First, NHIS is limited to the civilian, noninstitutionalized population and might underrepresent the oldest of the elderly, who are more likely to reside in institutions. Second, this survey excludes persons with severe disabilities who live in institutional settings.3 Finally, the percentages of oteher race/ethnicity groups with functional limitations were not calculated due to insufficient data.

911 call confirms Paris Jackson overdosed on Motrin, cut herself
The recording of the 911 call of Paris Jackson's suicide attempt has been released. The call between officials from the Los Angeles County Fire Department and the L.A. County Sheriff's Department confirms earlier reports about the 15-year-old's injuries.
The Sheriff's Department official also said that Paris was "awake and breathing" at the time the call was made. Paris had reportedly contacted a suicide hotline herself. She was hospitalized last Wednesday after the incident and later transferred to UCLA Medical Center - the same hospital where her late father, the King of Pop Michael Jackson, was pronounced dead four years ago this month.
A judge has since requested an evaluation of Paris' welfare under the guardianship of her grandmother Katherine Jackson. Sources tell TMZ Paris' biological mother Debbie Rowe could be considered to take on parental responsibilities if the court sees fit.

THE DAYS OF '69: It occurs to us, with a peek at the calendar (Hey! It says it's our birthday!) and an even less-lingering glance at ourself in the bathroom mirror, that we're not as young as we were back in the days when we were, say, young.
And you know what comes with that: A pleasant (for us) crankiness, especially as regards to music. Our parents have all shuffled off, taking with them to the ultimate desert island their allotted 10 records and their oft-repeated snipes at us and our music: "Your taste is all in your mouth," they'd say. Then cackle.
For years, on the occasion of our birthday, we wrote a column about the best records reaching their 25th anniversary that year, until we got so old we didn't even like 25-year-old records that much anymore.
OK, that's not true. Now that we check through our memory that's still as sharp as a 12-year-old's who hasn't discovered drugs yet, we find that there is a strong Top 10 list of albums turning 25 in 2012. In fact, here it is - and no sissy "in no particular order." This is the 1987 list, from best to 10th-best:
1. "Bring the Family," John Hiatt
2. "Come On Pilgrim," the Pixies
3. "Pleased to Meet Me," the Replacements
4. "Sign o' the Times," Prince
5. "Bad," Michael Jackson
6. "Warehouse: Songs and Stories," Husker Du
7. "Document," REM
8. "Frank's Wild Years," Tom Waits
9. "Sentimental Hygiene," Warren Zevon
10. "Introduce Yourself," Faith No More
Dang, that's strong. It makes us wish we were whatever age we were in 1987 again (we don't know; too much math).
Still, our crankiness comes to the fore, and we get all teary-eyed when we blast ourself all the way back to 1969, which, one can argue, and often win the debate, was the best year for rock and roll. Woodstock, the Beatles' rooftop concert, the Who's first performance of "Tommy," the return of Elvis.
We were stupid-young in 1969. We still had nuns teaching us. Still had to work like an orphan won in a poker game for our 25-cent allowance, painting the house, mowing the lawn, cleaning the pool, pulling weeds - all while our sister lounged around eating pralines and being coddled like one destined for the throne.
And is it any wonder that we turned for solace to the sinister and outlaw world of rock and roll, sneaking up the hill to Platterpuss Records to buy records for $2.98, and then smuggling them in the most ingenious ways into the house past our mom like something out of "The Great Escape" in reverse? In our mom's eyes there was no greater sin than buying records, other than buying Mad magazine.
If you're old enough to remember the records of 1969, you probably can't, so we'll refresh your memory. And, rather than list all the best vinyl LPs from that year in order of splendidness, we'll just go by the best album released month-by-month. That's how good our memory is. Plus, Wikipedia.
January: "Bayou Country," Creedence Clearwater Revival
February: "The Gilded Palace of Sin," Flying Burrito Brothers
March: "The Velvet Underground," The Velvet Underground
April: "Nashville Skyline," Bob Dylan
May: May? You expect us to do May 1967? May 3: "Stand!," by Sly & the Family Stone came out. May 14: Neil Young's "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere." May 23: The Who released "Tommy." May 29: A Southern California bonanza - "Crosby Stills & Nash" debuted, along with Joni Mitchell's "Clouds" and John Stewart's "California Bloodlines." We can't pick. We're too weak.
June: "Beck-Ola," The Jeff Beck Group
July: "Happy Sad," Tim Buckley
August: You pick. Aug. 29 saw the release of "Stand Up" by Jethro Tull, "My Cherie Amour" by Stevie Wonder, "Blind Faith," "Green River" by Creedence, and "Santana."
September: "The Band" and the Beatles' "Abbey Road." There was more - Fleetwood Mac's "Then Play On," for instance - but this is getting ridiculous.
October: "Led Zeppelin II."
November: "Volunteers," by Jefferson Airplane. "Joe Cocker!" "Live/Dead" by the Grateful Dead. "The Rod Stewart Album."
December: "Let It Bleed," the Rolling Stones.
BACK TO THE FUTURE: Despite our occasional but enthusiastic blathering about it, the Grace First Presbyterian concert series remains one of the town's best-kept secrets. Concertmaster Stan DeWitt books some of the world's most extraordinary musicians into the church that's tucked away into the city's distant and mysterious Far East.
On Jan. 20, the new year's series kicks off with the magnificent and insanely versatile guitarist Peppino D'Agostino.
Ever since DeWitt alerted us to D'Agostino, we have been YouTubing him like crazy. He gets more out of his guitar - and he uses more of it than a farmer gets out of a hog or, to rush back to a more musical metaphor, than Keith Jarrett gets out of a piano - than anyone we've heard. He'll use his strumming hand for percussion while playing more intricately with one hand than most good guitarists could with three. You get the feeling that if D'Agostino could fit through the sound hole of his beautiful Seagull guitar, he'd do it, and to great effect.
The multi-award-winning guitarist will be performing at Grace First, 3955 Studebaker Road, in the Prestigious Plaza of Long Beach at 8 p.m.
You should go out YouTubing on your own, then spring for a ticket or two.
They're $20 each; pay $40 and you get dinner at the Roadhouse Grill in the Town Center. Go to www.gracefirst events.org or call Stan DeWitt at 562-420-3393, Ext. 18.

Hello everyone, my name is x0n1r0n, and I'm relatively new to Backtrack and the Metasploit Framework. I've been following closely the metasploit unleashed documentation, but have hit something of a hiccup when trying out different commands in msfconsole.
I'm running BT5 R1 with virtualbox 4.1.8 configured with the NIST FDCC Windows XP as a Guest OS inside virtualbox.
I have the settings for Virtualbox set like so:
IPv4 Address: 192.168.56.1
IPv4 Network Mask: 255.255.255.0
DHCP Server:
Server Address: 192.168.56.100
Server Mask: 255.255.255.0
Lower address bound: 192.168.56.101
Upper address bound: 192.168.56.254
I have the settings for my XP Guest OS (fdcc-xp) like so:
Adapter 1:
Attached to: [Host-only Adapter]
Name: [vboxnet0]
Promiscuous Mode: [Allow All] (not sure if I need this to allow all, deny, or allow vms)
Cable connected: [x]
With these settings, virtualbox creates a virtual network adapter in BT called vboxnet0, which resides next to my only other network device, the loopback interface "lo":
lo Link encap:Local loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1
vboxnet0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 0a:00:27:00:00:00
inet addr:192.168.56.1 Bcast:192.168.56.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
At this point, I ping from XP to BT and the reverse to make sure I can ping bidirectionally:
And both directions seem to work as I see replies in both shells.
Now I'm ready to run some scanning modules from msfconsole. Here is where I encounter my first problem!
As in the Guide (Metasploit Unleashed - http://www.offensive-security.com/me.../Port_Scanning) I run the db_nmap scan as well as the smb_version scan just fine. Notice with "show options" both of these modules do not require an interface name:
Both modules are able to communicate just fine with the XP Guest OS (target) and report open ports to me.
Here is where I've been stumped for the last few hours I've worked with this. Any module that has the "optional" [Interface] parameter, I enter the "vboxnet0" adapter only to get errors or failures. I've tried entering nothing (which ends up defaulting to the first 'up' device {eth0 or lo}) as well, with similar results.
Notice the line >set interface vboxnet0, this is the crux of my problem. I don't know what I should put here, or if it should really be vboxnet0, I don't know what the problem is. It seems that any modules that ask for the specific interface (network adapter name) should be able to use the vboxnet0 virtual interface, but I've had no success.
Something I did notice while running both db_nmap and smb_version was that all the traffic seems to have been sent through my loopback interface lo because I watched the RX and TX go up as the db_nmap and smb_version commands ran, which seem to indicate to me that lo is communicating with my XP VM, whereas I thought vboxnet0 was supposed to be reserved for such communications:
So my questions are:
1. Is vboxnet0 the correct interface I should be specifying for msfconsole's commands that "require" an interface?
2. If it is, how do I go about reconfiguring it so that it is communicating properly with my guest XP OS
3. If it is not, what would your (anyone's) recommended setup be for how to configure the networking between the Guest XP and BT5 such that both host and guest operating systems appear on the same network with bidirectional communication unimpeded?
Thank you in advance for taking the time to look at my problem. I am accumulating this knowledge in the hopes of giving back more to the community for the sake of justice.

Skullcap can refer to 2 herbs: American skullcap (Scutellaria lateriflora) and Chinese skullcap (Scutellaria baicalensis). Both forms of skullcap are used to treat different conditions and are not interchangeable.
American skullcap is native to North America, but it is now widely cultivated in Europe and other areas of the world. It has been used for more than 200 years as a mild relaxant and as a therapy for anxiety, nervous tension, and convulsions, however, more research is needed to support that claim. Today, other herbs (such as valerian) are more commonly used, although American skullcap may be combined with other calming herbs in some preparations.
Most of the studies done on skullcap have examined Chinese skullcap. Native to China and parts of Russia, Chinese skullcap has been used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat allergies, infections, inflammation, cancer, and headaches. It may also have antifungal and antiviral effects. Animal studies suggest that Chinese skullcap may help reduce symptoms of diabetes and hypertension (high blood pressure), but scientists don't know if Chinese scullcap has the same effect in humans. In test tubes and animal studies, Chinese skullcap appears to have some cancer fighting properties. More research is needed to determine any benefit.
American skullcap derives its name from the caplike appearance of the outer whorl of its small blue or purple flowers. It is a slender, heavily branched plant that grows to a height of 2 - 4 feet and blooms each July. It grows wild in woods and meadows.
Chinese skullcap is related to and resembles American skullcap, but it is a different plant. Its single stems bear a profusion of blue or purple flowers.
American skullcap -- The parts used for medicinal purposes are the leaves. These are harvested in June from a 3 - 4 year old skullcap plant.
Chinese skullcap -- The root is used medicinally.
American skullcap is available as a powder or liquid extract.
Chinese skullcap is available as a powder.
Neither American skullcap nor Chinese skullcap is recommended for children.
Skullcap is available as an encapsulated dried herb, tea, fluid extract, and tincture. Speak to your physician to find the right form and dose for your needs.
Chinese skullcap is often combined with other herbs into a preparation; follow dosing recommendations on the label.
The use of herbs is a time honored approach to strengthening the body and treating disease. Herbs, however, can trigger side effects and can interact with other herbs, supplements, or medications. For these reasons, you should take herbs with care, under the supervision of a health care practitioner.
American skullcap
Chinese skullcap
If you are being treated with any of the following medications, you should not use either American skullcap or Chinese skullcap without first talking to your health care provider.
Sedatives -- Both American skullcap and Chinese skullcap can increase the effect of drugs that have a sedating effect, including:
The same is true of herbs with a sedating effect, such as valerian, kava, and catnip.
Drugs for Diabetes -- Chinese skullcap can lower blood sugar, and could make the effects of drugs taken for diabetes stronger, leading to the risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).

Brevard, N.C. - The Tornados swept their season opener doubleheader against Ohio Valley on a beautiful Saturday afternoon to open the 2009 season, winning game one 7-1, and taking game two from the Fighting Scots, 3-0, behind a one-hit shutout by Seth Laughter.
Game 1: Brevard 7, Ohio Valley 1
The Tornados opened game one with a bang in the first inning as Brice Warner hustled out a double on a grounder up the middle. The next batter, Matthew Pruitt battled Fighting Scots starter Luke Nolan to a 2-2 count, before slapping a double down the right field line, scoring Warner. After a wild pitch moved Pruitt to third, Stephen Mullis hit a grounder in between second and first that Scots second baseman Chaz Mohler made a diving stop for, throwing out Mullis at first, but allowing Pruitt to score. Nolan was able to escape the inning without any more damage, but the Tornados were up 2-0 after one.
Ohio Valley loaded the bases in the second as Mike Giannamore put a single up the middle, Ryan Barber walked, and Justin Wharton had a ball tip off Ryan Toney's glove and fall for a single. However, Toney was able to recover, retiring Mohler on strikes to end the top of the 2nd inning.
The Tornados added another run in the bottom of the inning, going up 3-0, as Adam Arrowood grounded out to Matt Wharton, driving in Jason Merrill. However, catcher Jake Kight ended the inning throwing out Warner as he attempted to steal second.
Kight got Ohio Valley on the board in the top of the third as he hammered a 3-2 fastball over the bullpen in left field, but Toney limited the damage to just the one run, striking out John Ortiz and Giannamore to end the inning with the Tornados up 3-1.
In the bottom of the fifth, Warner led off with a single past a diving Matt Wharton. A single by Pruitt moved Warner to third. Then, a pitch after he had showed a bunt, William Scholer deposited a fastball over the fence in left center driving in all three runs. Mullis follewed the home run with a double to left center. Nolan was able force Josh Miller to foul out to first base and strike out Merrill, but walked Kellen Moman on four straight pitches, prompting a pitching change by Fighting Scots head coach Bob Crawford, bringing in Zach Boraski with runners on first and second and two outs. The move paid off as Boraski retired Arrowood on a fly ball to center, but Scholer's three-run blast had already done the damage, putting Brevard up 6-1 with two innings remaining in game one.
Toney, having retired 10 straight batters since giving up the home run in the third inning, walked Ortiz and Matt Wharton to start the top of the sixth, before giving way to reliever Tommy Yearty. After a balk advanced both runners into scoring position, Yearty retired Giannamore on a soft grounder to third, before getting Ben Meneley to line out to BC shortstop Spencer Linn, doubling up Wharton to end the inning without allowing a run.
Warner added another run for the Tornados in the bottom of the sixth as he reached on an error by Matt Wharton on a grounder up the middle. Warner used his speed to reach third on a perfect sacrifice bunt placed on the third baseline by Pruitt, before scoring on a wild pitch by Boraski, to give Brevard a 7-1 lead.
Ohio Valley loaded the bases in the top of the seventh behind singles by Justin Wharton and Kight, and a walk to Kellen Shepherd, but Yearty came back to force a lazy fly ball to center that Warner tracked down for the final out, sealing the 7-1 victory.
Game 2: Brevard 3. Ohio Valley 0
Brevard opened the scoring in the second game as Linn drove a ball into right field that Scots right fielder Ryan Barber made a great play on, catching the ball while laying on the ground after tangling his feet. The catch allowed Brevard's Jackie Corn to walk in from third base, putting the Tornados up 1-0. However, Fighting Scots starter Kyle York got Arrowood to hit a chopper to the third baseman to end the inning with Merrill stranded on third.
The Tornados added two more runs in the bottom of the third. With one out, Pruitt reached first after Ortiz muffed the throw from Matt Wharton. After the error, Scholer bounced a single through the left side of the infield putting runners on first and second. With a 1-0 count, Mullis pulled a line drive down the right field line and didn't stop running until he pulled up at third with a bases-clearing triple. However, he was stranded as York was able to get Jackie Corn and Merrill to ground out to end the inning with the score 3-0 Brevard.
A pair of one-out singles by Corn and Merrill in the bottom of the sixth chased York, leaving way for Boraski. A four-pitch walk to Miller loaded the bases, but Boraski got Linn to bounce into a double play to end the inning with the score, 3-0.
Meanwhile, Tornados starting pitcher Seth Laughter threw a complete game, allowing two runners (one walk, one single) to reach while striking out two. Laughter retired the final fifteen batters, getting Matt Wharton to fly out to Warner in center field to end the game.
The Tornados conclude their season opening weekend tomorrow afternoon as they try to complete the sweep against the Fighting Scots. First pitch for the game on Gil Coan Field is set for 1 p.m.

MELROSE PARK, IL -- New from Stern Pinball is the Metallica series, a tribute to the famous and durable "thrash metal" band. It's offered in pro, premium and limited-edition "Master of Puppets" versions, the last named for the title song of one of the group's most influential albums.
The new pinball machine is the latest in Stern's line of rock-and-roll-themed games. "Metallica's notoriously fast tempos and aggressive musicianship sets the tone for an exciting player experience," the manufacturer reported. Players will be able to "bang their heads and their flippers" to 12 Metallica classics including "One," "Fade to Black" and "Master of Puppets." Action-enhancing play features include an electric chair, a ball-eating snake and a grave marker, augmented by what the company described as unparalleled magnetic action.
"We are proud to release our newest music-themed game, designed to capture the raw, rebellious nature of Metallica," said chairman and chief executive Gary Stern.
The pro version of the game is priced at $4,995; the premium version (road case) costs $6,995; and the "Master of Puppets" limited edition is $7,595. All three models feature custom-molded playfield "toys" created by Stern, along with Metallica, as well as stainless-steel shooter, and left and right ball ramps with illuminated Metallica logos. Targets include electric chair and "fuel start" standups and grave marker inline drop objects. The audio system delivers not only the dozen Metallica hit songs, but band member custom speech tracks.
The MoP limited edition comes with a numbered plaque and certificate of authenticity, as well as a designer-signed playfield (John Borg's signature, protected by a hard-coat finish). It also incorporates an eye-catching mirrored "Master of Puppets" backglass. All models are available through Stern authorized distributors and dealers.

Between 1996 and 1998 a few off-spring ZTT fans ran their own little 808 mailinglist called globalState (which is where the original name of the 808state.com site came from). Members were:
Scott Weaver (USA),
Josh Bortz (USA),
Lionel D (South Africa),
Roger (Germany),
Roland (Switzerland),
Smiley (UK),
Soren (Denmark),
Markus (Netherlands).
After 1998 some people disappeared for years. However all, except Scott & Josh, returned to the new 808 forum at some time and occasionally post (user names are now: De Lillie, riz, Roland, smiley, solarex, markus). With the recent return of prodigal son Lionel D, the question has come up, what ever happened with Josh Bortz? Lionel has offered to find out, so I'm trying to dig out Josh's parent's phone number. Also there is a 808 radio show from ca 1996 where you can hear him live in the studio.
What ever happened with... (past 808 fans)
Discuss 808 State and related.
Moderators: Ancodia, Pob, markus, nickking
Next one: What ever happened to Dr.Walsh??? It's been exactly a year since he posted (and he had made 195 posts up until then).

Re: What ever happened with... (past 808 fans)
Josh Bortz was a heavy ZTT and 808 collector. After the legendary Castlefield gathering he made numerous trips to Manchester visiting everybody and apparently also the 808 show (new to me).
So strange, he, to our knowledge, is not here. Has he lost interest completely.
Maybe he got himself every single ZTT and 808 release and thought, hmmm, time to move on.

Lots of members seem to come and go, and I notice people like McBain, (who posted quite heavily when he first arrived) have also disappeared, don't know what's happened to Pete? The hardcore fans are still here though, unfortunately I was not part of the original group as I didn't have a PC then! Maybe its 808's sporadic releases that do it, and sadly some people probably view it as a passing fad rather than staying put for the long run.

Frustrating dealer visit today....
So I decided to continue the immaculate service history with my new to me 740i, and took it to the dealer to have the scheduled oil service done 7500 miles early in order to start my relationship with my car on a good foot..
I did my own pre-inspection and went the car over with a fine tooth comb prior to purchase per the e38.org buyers guide.. I did notice a few small things but overall my car is in remarkable shape. ANYHOO..
Took it in for the oil change today and they called me shortly afterward to give me a laundry list of items that made me sound like an irresponsible owner... Especially when I declined some of the services..
First and foremost- when they went to change the oil they noticed a slight oil seep from the pan (no drips, but it is a little moist) they also noted that my oil pan bolt was "odd" according to the service manager it is a hand tightened plug with a locking rod through it. He then informed me that If i were to give them permission to remove it that if they couldnt get it back in that I would have to pay for a new pan and plug and gasket to the tune of $590 plus tax..
He also noticed a small amount of seepage from the PS line (suction hose) and wanted to replace that at $299 plus tax
Then he claimed that my michelin tires are spent (with about 1/2 inch of tread left of 80,000mile tires and offered me a $1095 plus tax solution..
I did opt to pay for the replacement oil filter mount at $76 installed..
The car is 13 years old, and by george it is in great shape.. I feel that they were a little picky and did not make me feel confident that they werent going to just "claim" the bolt wouldnt go back in so they could charge $600 for that service..
I went in feeling good about the car, and trying to be nice to it, and left with the service manager telling me to "be careful on my bald tires because it took 3 guys to push him out of the parking spot... Funny, I made the 35 mile trip in the snow just fine.....

A dealer service department should give you a list of things that may need attention. It is also not surprising that they would express a concern about a non OEM part in the oil pan. But, they shouldn't pressure you or make you feel bad... that's a whole different issue!
I like to DIY my oil changes, it gives me an excuse to crawl under the car and monitor leaks as they develop.
Yeah, I know they always try to push services, and should. but on the phone he was calling them "leaks" and "damage to the oil pan" but in reality it was some mild moistness on a hose, and a non OEM oil pan bolt.... not damage to the pan..
I usually do my own services, I guess I had forgotten how much the dealer picks the car apart.

Deflated breasts
I have seen women "dry up", so to speak, after breastfeeding. Some women actually gain more cup size, but I have seen breasts feeding work against the aesthetics of the body by the breasts looking like flabby pieces of skin hanging off the chest. Who is at risk? I am only a B cup with a perky cone shape, am I at risk? Should smaller breasted people only breastfeed for a certain number of months?

Dear sonybopper,
Are you currently breastfeeding? How old is your baby?
It is actually pregnancy which causes a woman's breast tissue to change (and sometimes become more 'saggy') rather than breastfeeding. As you say, breastfeeding can even lead to fuller breasts. It is important to wear a suitable feeding bra when you are breastfeeding (in the day and night). You can also do muscle toning exercises to help with your breast appearance (swimming is an excellent exercise for this) and moisturise daily. Eating a healthy, balanced diet will also help.
Above all, smaller breasted women should definitely not reduce the duration they breastfeed for. Breastfeeding has hugely significant advantages for baby and mother. It reduces both a baby and mother's likelihood of suffering from certain types of cancer. It contains stem cells. Breastmilk has brain developmental advantages compared to formula milk and it is gently on a baby's digestive system. It reduces the likelihood of a child going on to develop diabetes and numerous other health issues in later life. Breastfeeding is 'normal feeding' and, unfortunately, formula milk is vastly inferior to breastmilk's complex yet delicate make-up.
The World Health Organisation state that babies should be breastfed exclusively (i.e. only have breastmilk) in the first 6 months of life and then be breastfed alongside the introduction of solid food from 6 months of age until 2 years of age and beyond. This is the same regardless of a woman's breast size. There's also no truth in the myth that smaller breasted women can't produce as much breastmilk.
I hope this helps. Breastmilk really is wonderful stuff!
Warm wishes,

Hurdles Still Remain for Ground Zero Settlement
Oh, great ... "Judge Hellerstein said he would take a week to review the terms of the agreement and convene again next Friday to give his 'initial impressions' and to hear from interested parties, including plaintiffs. He also scheduled a formal "fairness hearing" on the agreement for April 12.
Lawyers from both sides have said that the settlement does not require the judge's approval."
Anyone who's watched the developments at 911truth.org and related sites knows the battles lost by one 9/11 victim's family after another in trying to get their case heard by Judge Alvin Hellerstein. A search on "Hellerstein" at 911truth.org brings up just a bit of this outrageous history, for further reading.
– Ed.
By Mireya Navarro
Sgt. Dawn Sorrento says she looks on the years since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks as a blur of doctor's visits, ambushes by illnesses she had never heard of and growing resentment toward the city that challenged her injury claims.
[RELATED: Ground Zero Workers Reach Deal Over Claims (March 12, 2010)]
Yet on Friday, Sergeant Sorrento, a police officer who is among some 10,000 rescue and cleanup workers at ground zero who sued the city for health damages, felt a grim sort of satisfaction. She had expected her case to be among the first to go to trial this spring; instead, both sides announced a legal settlement of up to $657.5 million Thursday night.
"It's nice that someone took responsibility, finally," said Sergeant Sorrento, 43, who helped coordinate the movement of cranes, dignitaries and cadaver-hunting dogs in and out of ground zero in September 2001. "The city finally acknowledges that 9/11 diseases do exist and that people are suffering."
Officials cast the settlement as righting a historic wrong on Friday and predicted that it would assure speedy and just compensation to the workers, who have waited more than six years for a legal resolution. But significant hurdles remain.
Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein, of the United States District Court in Manhattan, has made clear that he intends to play a role in assuring that individuals are compensated fairly.
At a hearing on Friday, Judge Hellerstein said he would take a week to review the terms of the agreement and convene again next Friday to give his "initial impressions" and to hear from interested parties, including plaintiffs.
He also scheduled a formal "fairness hearing" on the agreement for April 12.
Lawyers from both sides have said that the settlement does not require the judge's approval. But Judge Hellerstein warned them in January that in the event of a settlement, he would hold hearings to determine whether the settlement treated individual 9/11 workers fairly.
On Friday he also cautioned them that he planned to review the fees going to the plaintiffs' lawyers and would reserve the right to reduce them as he has done in some other cases, to as low as 15 percent.
This means the lawyers, who stood to collect a third of the settlement under agreements with their clients, could see their anticipated rewards more than halved.
Initial reactions among the thousands of 9/11 workers have so far been mixed, and some will not venture an opinion until they learn more details. A fuller picture of the range of sentiments is likely to surface when plaintiffs turn out to address Judge Hellerstein at the hearing next week.
Still, lawyers for the plaintiffs said they were confident that the 95 percent consent threshold the agreement requires would be met and emphasized that most of the clients they had heard from were expressing relief.
"We've had numerous calls and by far the calls are very, very positive," said Marc Jay Bern of Napoli Bern Ripka, the law firm representing more than 9,400 of the plaintiffs. "The clients are quite relieved that there's an end in sight."
But John Feal, an advocate for 9/11 workers through his FealGood Foundation, said he had been inundated with e-mail and phone calls from angry plaintiffs fretting about their potential individual compensation as word of the settlement spread Thursday night.
"A lot of people still want to see all the facts before signing on," he said.
In a telephone conference with reporters Friday morning, the city's corporation counsel, Michael A. Cardozo, said city officials were "delighted" that the legal battle that pitted the "heroes" of the recovery effort against the city could soon be over.
"We believe strongly that this settlement is fair not only to the city and its contractors but to the plaintiffs," he said.
On the same call, Kenneth R. Feinberg, the former special master of the federal compensation fund that paid awards to families of 9/11 victims in a system similar to what the settlement for the workers now calls for, called the settlement "long overdue."
He noted that the only reason many of the workers had not been compensated under the Sept. 11 Victim Compensation Fund was because they had not fallen ill by the time the fund closed in 2003.
Christine LaSala, chief of the WTC Captive Insurance Company, the city insurer that will pay the settlement out of a federally-financed $1.1 billion fund, said a tort management firm has already been chosen to handle the claims. The administrator responsible for evaluating the cases and deciding the awards will be appointed within a few weeks, she added.
Ms. LaSala said that once the settlement is final, the first claimants will start receiving payouts within months and the entire process could be completed within a year. Each plaintiff must submit proof of medical history and presence at ground zero to guard against fraud.
Under the point system envisioned to determine severity of illness, a serious condition such as pulmonary fibrosis or scarring of the lung could result in an award of more than $1 million, according to Mr. Bern, the plaintiffs' lawyer.
Avelino Montalvo, 52, who said he worked as a volunteer for the American Red Cross at the World Trade Center site, said he would not accept the settlement in view of its size and the high number of plaintiffs. "A couple thousand dollars for all the years of pain and suffering, it's just a drop in the bucket," he said.
Mr. Montalvo said he is on disability now with an upper respiratory illness and takes 17 medications.
Many plaintiffs have said they are not only hobbled by illness but also haunted by the idea that they could become 9/11 casualties themselves.
"I'm sick that I even participated" in the recovery effort at ground zero, said Kenny Specht, 41, a firefighter who received a diagnosis of thyroid cancer in 2008. "It was a dangerous thing to do, but I thought it was the place to be."
Sergeant Sorrento, who is single and lives on Staten Island, said she counts herself among the lucky ones even as she struggles with "reactive airway disease," a condition similar to asthma involving a tendency to wheeze and cough from exposure to irritants.
Now a detective in Coney Island, she can still work full time. But when her symptoms worsen in severe heat or the winter cold, she said, her detectives have to pick up the slack.
"What happens 10 years from now?" she said.

Stay Out!
Stay Alive!
South Park
Middle School
South Park, PA.
On September 13th, Mark Schultz and Debbie Tomko visited South Park Middle School in South Park, Pennsylvania to speak about mine safety utilizing the "Stay Out - Stay Alive" program. Fifth graders learned about the many dangers that various types of mines present and the dangers associated with those mines. Also, they were shown protective gear worn by MSHA personnel and how it helps them to safely perform their jobs. The next day, September 14th, these same students visited NIOSH's Safety Research Coal Mine located near MSHA's offices at the Bruceton Facility through a program sponsored by the Department of Energy.

Finally someone is doing something with that restaraunt thats been vacant forever. I go to school in Charleston but Im here for christmas. Washout is definitely better than Burkes any type of swell except for the high angled North/NE swells. Usually goes right past Folly Beach and hits HHi better. Washout is a zoo though, Youll feel right at home coming from SD but Im telling you, Ive seen 50 guys out there on waist high days recently (booties and fullsuits), all shortboarders though so thats a welcome change from HHI's endless longboards/SUPs
I spent 5 months as a beer buyer and event coordinator at a local beer store/restaurant, so if you ever need beer suggestions, let me know. I have some experience with moving draft products.
Yup, that's us... Opposite of the boat house on the other side of the bridge. We are technically a HHI address and zip code (political nonsense) but we took over the old Sea Trawler and opened up a month ago.... Place is ENORMOUS! 10,000sq ft. and we can seat upwards of 500 people on 4 different level. We rennovated the whole downstairs (outside) and made waterfront seating for about 100. We have the Main DR that holds about 300, a third level above that is capable of about 40 more people with a VIP room on the 4th floor with panoramic elevated HHI/Water views that holds about 20 people.... Mobile bars out on the pier/dock...
but so far, we have been killing it. If you are a local, stop in and check out the locals only menu i made for the bar... best deal in the county....

I'm sure everyone will be happy.The purpose is for easy readability and cool to the eye.

Thanks in advanced.

The current color is a pain.
I'm sure everyone will be happy.
This is the first I've heard of it, do you know something I don't?
Sorry, but I find that example more difficult to read.
Maybe black like a DOS window would be better?
Granted I'm used to seeing the current [noparse]

Well, not everyone
Yeah Black background-color is much better.
Let the whole forum community know about this.And lets wait if they agree or not.
Again the purpose is for easy readability.
If all else fails, you can set up your own user stylesheet for the forum so that things appear to your liking. That's what I do.
It's worth the effort for site you visit a lot.
@ralph_m;Thanks dude, how to do that?
It depends on which browser you are using. Which is your preferred one for viewing the forums?
I used google chrome.
In that case, try this add-on:
Once it's installed, you can open it up, specify the site you want to style (e.g. sitepoint.com/forums/) and paste in the styles you want to use.
To work out those styles, open the Chrome dev tools, create some new styles, copy them and paste them into the add-on. (I know that's not very clear, but it's not hard to figure out. Heck, even I managed to figure it out!)

WATCH: Daft Punk's 'The Collaborators' Episode 2 - Todd Edwards
Listen to Daft Punk on iHeartRadio | Listen to Todd Edwards on iHeartRadio
Daft Punk is continuing their "The Collaborators" series, giving us a peek at who they have been working with on their upcoming album, Random Access Memories, secretively all this time. Epiode 2 focuses on New Jersey native and long-time producer Todd Edwards.
Right from the beginning, Todd talks about having to harbor the secret of working with the legendary duo. He says, "It's been very difficult to harbor this secret, and I'm waiting for this album to intoxicate and infect everyone."
Edwards also talks about getting that "west coast vibe" from the time of Fleetwood Mac, Eagles, and The Doobie Brothers, how Daft Punk "reversed gears and went back to a time when no one is focusing on," and the studio process with live instruments - Todd calls it a "lost art form."
Random Access Memories will be released May 21st. You can pre-order here.

Dyslexia is a learning disorder characterized by difficulty reading due to problems identifying speech sounds and learning how they relate to letters and words. Also called specific reading disability, dyslexia is a common learning disability in children.
Dyslexia occurs in children with normal vision and intelligence. Sometimes dyslexia goes undiagnosed for years and isn't recognized until adulthood.
There's no cure for dyslexia. It's a lifelong condition caused by inherited traits that affect how your brain works. However, most children with dyslexia can succeed in school with tutoring or a specialized education program. Emotional support also plays an important role.
Dyslexia symptoms can be difficult to recognize before your child enters school, but some early clues may indicate a problem. Once your child reaches school age, your child's teacher may be the first to notice a problem. The condition often becomes apparent as a child starts learning to read.
Signs and symptoms that a young child may be at risk of dyslexia include:
Once your child is in school, dyslexia signs and symptoms may become more apparent, including:
Dyslexia symptoms in teens and adults are similar to those in children. Though early intervention is beneficial for dyslexia treatment, it's never too late to seek help. Some common dyslexia symptoms in teens and adults include:
Dyslexia is characterized by a delay in the age at which a child begins to read. Most children are ready to learn reading by kindergarten or first grade, but children with dyslexia often can't grasp the basics of reading by that time.
Talk with your doctor if your child's reading level is below what's expected for his or her age or if you notice other signs or symptoms of dyslexia. When dyslexia goes undiagnosed and untreated, childhood reading difficulties continue into adulthood.
Dyslexia has been linked to certain genes that control how the brain develops. It appears to be an inherited condition — it tends to run in families.
These inherited traits appear to affect parts of the brain concerned with language, interfering with the ability to convert written letters and words into speech.
Dyslexia risk factors include:
Dyslexia can lead to a number of problems, including:
Children who have dyslexia are at increased risk of having attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and vice versa. ADHD can cause difficulty sustaining attention as well as hyperactivity and impulsive behavior, which can make dyslexia harder to treat.
You may first bring up your concerns with your child's pediatrician or family doctor. To ensure that another problem isn't at the root of your child's reading difficulties, the doctor may refer your child to:
To prepare for your appointment:
For dyslexia, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
Your doctor will likely have a number of questions for you as well, such as:
There's no one test that can diagnose dyslexia. Your child's doctor will consider a number of factors, such as:
There's no known way to correct the underlying brain abnormality that causes dyslexia — dyslexia is a lifelong problem. However, early detection and evaluation to determine specific needs and appropriate treatment can improve success.
Dyslexia is treated using specific educational approaches and techniques, and the sooner the intervention begins, the better. Psychological testing will help your child's teachers develop a suitable teaching program.
Teachers may use techniques involving hearing, vision and touch to improve reading skills. Helping a child use several senses to learn — for example, listening to a taped lesson and tracing with a finger the shape of the letters used and the words spoken — can help him or her process the information.
If available, tutoring sessions with a reading specialist can be very helpful for many children with dyslexia. A reading specialist will focus on helping your child:
If your child has a severe reading disability, tutoring may need to occur more frequently, and progress may be slower.
In the United States, schools have a legal obligation to take steps to help children diagnosed with dyslexia with their learning problems. Talk to your child's teacher about setting up a meeting to create a plan that outlines your child's needs and how the school will help him or her succeed. This is called an Individualized Education Plan (IEP). To receive help, your child may need a structured, written plan.
Children with dyslexia who get extra help in kindergarten or first grade often improve their reading skills enough to succeed in elementary school and high school.
Children who don't get help until later grades may have more difficulty learning the skills needed to read well. They're likely to lag behind academically and may never be able to catch up. A child with severe dyslexia may never have an easy time reading, but he or she can learn skills that improve reading.
Academic problems don't necessarily mean a person with dyslexia can't succeed. Students with dyslexia can be highly capable, given the right resources. Many people with dyslexia are creative and bright, and may be gifted in math, science or the arts. Some even have successful writing careers.
You play a key role in helping your child succeed. Take these steps:
Success in employment can be difficult for adults struggling with dyslexia. To help achieve your goals:
Emotional support and opportunities for achievement in activities that don't involve reading are important for children with dyslexia. If your child has dyslexia:

Lambs Canyon
Getting there • Take Interstate 80 east toward Park City and get off at the Lambs Canyon exit. Take a quick right on Lambs Canyon road and follow it to the trailhead. Parking is on the side of the somewhat narrow road.
Directions • This is a great hike for Salt Lakers who want to get on the trail quickly but avoid the crowds in Mill Creek Canyon. It's also a bit cooler, starting at a higher elevation and offering a good amount of shade.
The hike is a bit of a challenge elevation gain is more than 1,400 feet. The trail is beautifully green, surrounded by aspens and wildflowers, and runs partially along the creek. This hike ends at Lambs Canyon Pass, but those looking to hike further can keep on going to Millcreek Ridge.
Lindsay Whitehurst Hiking time 2.5 hours
Round trip miles 3.5 miles
Elevation gain 1,494 feet
Difficulty Moderate
Trail head restrooms Yes
Dogs allowed No
Bikes allowed Yes, but not recommended

I've got a solid background in muay thai and wrestling. I have a coupla questions as regards fighting in the cage; thing that would be of great use to me to know, be you all having the experience I would expect.
How effective are knee strikes in a fight? I never see cage fighters exchanging roundhouses like they do in Thailand, but I'm wondering how much use the legs end up being at all. One half of me tends to think it's down to personal preference, but the other compels me to ask, just to make sure I'm not making too many assumptions.
I suppose, though, the biggest question is how does the transition from amateur to semi-pro normally work?

Hey XB2Iris...
Can you take a look at the File mode / showcase with the latest SVN's?
After a while it shows an overlay which is empty.
I think it's a bug which stayed unnoticed because most use the Library view... In Library-mode this information is there....
I don't have enough experience to repair this myself.
I did change the delay to 8 seconds which is more appropriate because it already takes 2 seconds to display the fanart....
I also put in a bit of transparency... (80% opaque) on showcasefilter2.png and showcasefilter4.png. Maybe a little bit higher is better (less transparency)
This will show you more of the fanart. With some backdrops it's quite annoying that a certain part is completely invisible.
The episodehighlight.png became some transparency as well in my own mod.

It'll be fixed before next release if XB2Iris and I ever get around to trading files.. I fixed it up when you first mentioned it, but there's still a bit more that needs to be fixed.. I've been using library all this time and just recently realized how screwed file mode is..

Professional is they type of style that can be used for a long time without people getting sick of it, or finding hard to use...
Most people would prefer a professional looking skin because they can use it for a long time - at the moment, I'm still using Aeon most of the time, because the design doesn't date
If you want to have a skin that will be regarded as a 'classic', then you want one where the design will stand the test of time

xb2iris - I really like the screens, can't wait for V to be released!
Quick question: can you tell me where the backdrop in the screenshot below is from?

We'd better first ask him if he has spare time at the moment...

title: Lion Pride Takes Down Buffalo

allowUserEmbed: True

name: Big Cats Initiative: Big cats are quickly disappearing. Now is the time to act.

credit: National Geographic

transcript:
Life this year on the Mala Mala Game Reserve in South Africa is hard, harder than usual. A drought has left the animals here desperate for water and food.
This lion pride has had no substantial kills in months and several of their cubs have died.
The cape buffalo, too, have suffered. Grasses that should be in abundance have all but disappeared.
Lions are one of the few animals who will challenge a cape buffalo.
Cape buffaloes are large animals—adults stand over 4 feet high, and can be over 7 feet long, and weigh around 1500 pounds. And they’re known to be ferocious—perfectly able to kill an adult lion.
But the lions are desperate. And so the pride takes a chance.
They stalk the herd…looking for one member vulnerable enough to attack. For cape buffalo, there is safety in numbers. Becoming separated…and isolated…is a grim situation.
The lions locate their intended target. This cow is large. Her sharp horns and hooves could normally deliver a deadly blow to an unwary lioness.
But this buffalo is old and slightly lame. The lions will exploit these weaknesses.
The herd has abandoned the cow and the pride circles around her, waiting for the right moment.
The lionesses attack, piling onto the buffalo, biting and clawing her from all directions.
Finally, a male lion locks onto the buffalo’s throat, crushing her windpipe. It will be a slow, agonizing death.
It’s a gruesome sight. But the lions must eat as well. This kill means a renewed chance at life for them.

Vigil for St. Louis Teen Shot by Cops Turns Violent
Listen to The News Junkie, on iHeartRadio
(NEWSER) – Vigils and protests for a black teenager shot dead in the street by police in St. Louis County turned violent last night, with reports of looting, fires, and gunshots amid confrontations with police. Witnesses saw multiple stores being looted and police cars being vandalized, the AP reports. Earlier, thousands of people had joined a candlelight vigil for 18-year-old Michael Brown, who was shot and killed Saturday afternoon in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson. "Contributing to the unrest that is going on is not going to help," Ferguson's mayor tells KTVI. "We're only hurting ourselves, only hurting our community, hurting our neighbors. There's nothing productive from this."
