Star fullback Israel Folau hopes a no-frills game plan can provide the launching pad for attacking rugby, and has declared the Wallabies will score more tries as their confidence grows.
The Wallabies secured a morale-boosting win when they held on to beat Argentina in Perth on Saturday night.
Folau scored the only try in a contest dictated by the wet, cold and windy conditions.
The Wallabies' attack can be forgiven for a quiet night against the Pumas.
However, they have scored just four tries in four Tests - the least of any team in the Rugby Championship. The ARU and new coach Ewen McKenzie want the Wallabies to play ''the Australian way'' and attack from everywhere.
But Folau said the Wallabies had to go back to basics before unleashing their weapons.
''This week it was a lot more simple; the clarity was there for every player,'' Folau said.
''Everyone knew their role and that was important. We don't actually look at [try-scoring stats]. Overall the last month we've just been looking at our losses.''
The Wallabies' back line had few chances in open space against Argentina. The team's focus was trying to pin Argentina in their own half and avoid using their energy with a run-at-all-costs mentality.
New halfback Nic White's boot was crucial in getting the Wallabies out of trouble.
After running the ball and dominating possession in the first three Rugby Championship defeats, the Wallabies employed a tactical plan to break a losing streak and it worked.
The Wallabies kicked for 673 metres, while Argentina ran the ball 130 metres more than Australia. The Wallabies are still finding the right mix of when to kick and when to run. At one stage inside their attacking 22-metre zone, five-eighth Quade Cooper put a grubber through instead of backing the Wallabies to score a try.
''The conditions weren't right for the guys out wide to have a crack but I think we made the most of our chances,'' Folau said.
McKenzie said the Wallabies still wanted to attack but said ''flexibility'' was crucial to long-term success.

I am a cancer survivor who took control of his cancer because of articles, studies, blogs and forums I read on the Internet. Simply put, I learned to manage my cancer through social media. PeopleBeatingCancer.org is a tool to provide social networking for cancer survivors and caregivers. Learn about your cancer from articles, studies, blog and forum posts. Share with fellow survivors and caregivers on the forum.
I gave found the Galen foundation to be extremely helpfull with my myeloma ex and giving me understanding of the disease process and things I could to to improve outcomes and survivor ability I will forever be thankful for the wonderful advice timely information and helping me get my head around this disease and such. I highly recommend this site
I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma almost 8 years ago. I was so relieved to find David Emerson's site. I knew his information was pertinent to my diagnosis and it helped me navigate this disease and to meld both integrative techniques with allopathic care from my hematologist oncologist. I also could send in any question I had concerning natural care and how it might effect my current treatment regime. I also applaud him for realizing that many others with differing cancer diagnoses could benefit from his site. I always recommend it to anyone I meet that is dealing with some sort of cancer. Again, I am very grateful for this site. Thank you
Jan W.
I am a Licensed Aesthetician I help cancer patients in treatment for free. I help cancer patients with tying scarves if they don't want to wear a wig, skin consultations and make up to draw on eye brows and also make it look like they have lashes. I am also an Advanced Master Clinical Hypnotherapist and do visual imagery for healing and also do Sound healing for patients. I have done this since 1989 I started at UCSF I was the co coordinator in San Francisco for the American Cancer Society and then the coordinator in Marin County for the Cancer Society I stopped for awhile because I had too much going on with family and then moved up north in 2004 we don't have a program here so I have been trying to get word out that I do this. I have decided to have my own program because the American Caner Society would only let me do one thing with patients and that was make up and some patients want something different other than make up I have seen so many heal when you look great you feel great. When I work with visual imagery I work with the subconscious on a healing level so when you feel great inside about yourself and think positive that is extremely healing and it is amazing work and I love it.
I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma about three years ago. Getting reliable information about treatment options both traditional and complimentary on the web is hit and miss at best. People Beating Cancer is a breath of fresh air, and has helped me find my way through the jungle of conflicting opinions and modalities available. It has been a great resource. David Emerson (A Multiple Myeloma survivor himself) runs the site and has been very accessible and willing to help on a very personal level.
People Beating Cancer is a great example of an organization that starts with a single dedicated individual and though hard work, passion, and a commitment to excellence has developed as tremendous resource for people with cancer, caregivers, family members, and the public in general. There is not a person in this country that has not been personally impacted by cancer, whether as an individual , family or friend. I encourage you to take the time to review Dave Emerson's incredible story of courage, passion and drive - then please support The Galen Foundation either as a Volunteer and/or a Donor.
PeopleBeatingCancer is an amazing resource that can help folks with cancer, and their caregivers, sift through the vast amounts of information available, to find the the nuggets of guidence that can save and extend lives. In 1997, David Emerson, the founder, was given 6-12 months to live and he began digging for answers -- he found them and today David is going strong. PeopleBeatingCancer is there to help others do the same. The Galen Foundation is an amazing resource, please help spread the word to those we can help.
I find the People Beating Cancer website and newsletter very informative from the point of view of keeping up to date with the latest medical treatments and also a real personal support at times when I'm worried. I have great admiration for David Emerson in surviving against the odds, taking medical care into his own hands, and and love to read his personal story again when I get depressed with my MM cancer diagnosis. I think that's a wonderful lesson for us all and sets the tone for this webite. The Healthy Living section of the website is my favorite part - there I can view suggested vitamins and reading material. Thank you for providing this wonderful service!
I am a cancer survivor who was introduced to the Galen Foundation/People Beating Cancer through my daughter. I love that the site has continued to evolve through the years in order to provide hard to find information to more people in a variety of different ways. Many useful articles are posted and we have the opportunity to either simply read them or to comment on them. Questions are welcome and responses are quickly received. The site has helped me to broaden my approach to my own cancer as well as allowing me to tell my own story which might prove useful to someone else. I consider myself a user of People Beating Cancer, a contributor to the site, and a donor to the Galen Foundation..
I professionally serve a population of cancer survivors and their families. The Galen Foundation has provided an excellent place of resources to fit individual needs for the population they serve. It's hand-on practical insight on how to improve the quality of life of individuals who are currently going through various stages of their cancer journey. Psycho-social support is key to a positive attitude and outcome. Congrats to The Galen Foundation to meeting the needs of their constituents.
As someone who had cancer I am consistently aware of how important good information and a different perspective is to have. The care and attention of this foundation to gather and curate information helps separate the extremes. I appreciate the work that the people in this organization particularly David Emerson put into the website and their information links and commentary.

Michael Phelps Wins Gold Medal in Final Race of His Olympic Career
The 27-year-old swimmer, who announced his retirement in May, has nabbed his 18th gold medal in the men's 100-meter medley relay — the very last race ever in his Olympic career.
Phelps swam the butterfly leg of the race with teammates Matt Grevers, Brendan Hansen and Nathan Adrian — clocking in first at 3:29.35 in the overall relay. Japan and Australia came in second and third respectively.
So, what's Phelps' medal count now?
The American athlete has received a total of 22 Olympic medals in his career, besting former record holder Larisa Latynina as the most decorated Olympian of all time. The gymnast held the title with 18 medals until July 31, when Phelps was awarded his 19th in the men's 200-meter freestyle relay.
Phelps was also given a lifetime achievement award from FINA, the sport's swimming federation, during his last medal ceremony to celebrate his amazing accomplishments.
After a disappointing start at the London Games, in which he placed fourth in the 400-meter individual medley, Phelps wound up with more medals than any other swimmer at the Games: four golds and two silvers.
"I've been able to do everything I've wanted," Phelps said of his achievements. "I've been able to put my mind to the goals that I wanted to achieve. If you can say that about your career, there's no need to move forward."
See below for Phelps' many wins during the 2012 Olympics.

Clearly, Chuck is about nerds. But there's a danger to that as well. When the show tries to prove its "nerds are cool" message, it comes off as disengaged. Take last week's cat fight between Nicole Richie and Sarah (yes, I'm calling her by her character's name, thank you very much)–at the end, Richie yells something about how, of course, she could never have a thing for her husband because he's SUCH A NERD, right? To which Sarah, thinking about Chuck, counters that it's possible. To me that meant: Yes, despite the fact that the guy's such a huge nerd, I, a beautiful woman, see a scenario in which I might fall for him once I get to know him–and only then will I see that it is a nerd I was meant to be with. And even though that moment was instigated by a villain that we'll probably never see again, it still rang true for me as far as the first season is concerned. There were too many moments just like that, where Chuck almost had to prove that he can do things in spite of his nerdiness, not just, you know, as his nerdy self.
But as was evident even from moment one of season two, the show is trending in a much more exciting direction: This is now a show about nerds, for nerds, doing all it can to embrace things nerds find cool. And thus Chuck no longer feels like a defense of the culture, but a celebration of it.
On that note, here we are back in Burbank, with an episode that could have been plucked right out of the dreams of everyone in The King of Kong. Unbeknownst to anyone at the Buy More, Jeff was once one of the greatest Missile Command players in the country, having won a prestigious contest 25 years ago–the spoils of which included $100 in quarters and a year's supply of Slim Jims. But as it turns out, the creator of the game hid real missile command codes at the game's kill screen, so our lovable squad has been tasked with getting Jeff back in the game, so to speak. That, of course, means Chuck must brave an evening shotgunning beers with Jeff on a social level, a wonderful chance for us all to learn a bit more about our favorite drunk. Yes, Jeff's a creep, but a very specific kind who proudly shows his Anna photo montage, set to music, to his drinking buddies. He also wears special drinking pants and likes grape cough syrup and M&Ms;, but not the brown ones. If you didn't feel some pity when Jeff graced the screen before, you will now.
Not much happens outside the Buy More, which is a nice change of pace from the season's first four episodes. This further fuses Chuck's real life with his secret one, which is a dynamic again finding him worse for the wear. Chuck can save the world by pwning Missile Command in Jeff's absence (with some sweet Rush tunes in the background, no less), but he can't shake his sister's nagging to move on with his life, something he can't do now that he's stuck as the Intersect. The show has been sprinkling episodes with moments like tonight's mini-intervention, and every time Chuck brushes the concerns under the rug. But I'm starting to notice the big lumps underneath, and something's sure to crack in the near future. Let's just hope Chuck can call upon the wisdom garnered from four years as a roadie for Mamma Mia (aka Morgan) when the time comes.
In the mean time, I'm really enjoying the ride, and I find myself looking forward to these episodes every week. I know I'm not the only one (thanks for all the great comments, people), but all the news coming out of Nielsen is that Chuck ain't doing so hot. Maybe people tuned out at the pilot; maybe they've only got room for one Monday night NBC show, and they're choosing the much-worse Heroes (more on that later tonight). I'm having a hard time standing for it. So I order each of you to go out and tell three of your friends that the show's really good–like Save Our Bluths, how apropos given Tony Hale's appearance–and hopefully once November sweeps are over we'll be in good shape.
(Before I get to the grade, one complaint about tonight: Chuck has been on a roll with great guest actors, but tonight's Hale storm (nailed it!) was lacking? I kept waiting for another scene or two from Emmitt the efficiency expert, but none came. So when we find out that he's chosen to stick around as the assistant manager, I felt like no one really cared. Hale's a gifted comic actor; here's hoping he gets a lot more next time.)
Grade: A-
Stray observations:
- Morgan and Lester's jealousy was a treat–it's funny to see these grown men betray their inner socially awkward kids every now and then.
- Speaking of Hale, did anyone else have a weird Buster Bluth flashback upon hearing him say, "Kind words of introduction, Michael"?
- Sarah in a Nerd Herd outfit.
- Nope, that's it. My mind has gone there (see above), and I can't think of anything else.

Library Policies - Information We Keep About You
En Español: Políticas de la biblioteca - Información que mantenemos sobre usted (pdf)
Just what types of information does the Santa Cruz Library System collect about patrons, and how long is this kept in the database?
The Library System collects the following information from borrowers. Some of the information is optional. The facts requested are the ones we believe we need in order to track borrowed materials and account for and plan library services.
- Name
- Mailing Address
- Home Telephone Numbers
- Birth Date
- Gender
- Driver's License or DMV ID Number
- Expiration Date
- Social Security Number (optional)
- Residence Address if different from Mailing Address
- School
- Full-time College Student Yes/No
- Email address for Notices (optional)
After borrower information is entered in the automated database (to which only library staff have access) the paper form filled out by the patron is shredded. Borrower cards expire in four years, and borrowers who have not performed a transaction in six years are purged from the database.
When a borrower returns an item the record of the checkout is automatically purged from the database. Thus no continuing records of borrower activity are kept unless there are unpaid fines. In the case of unpaid fines, the library keeps a record of the item number, the date the fine was incurred and the amount of the fine. We also keep a fine record for requested items not picked up. When the fines are paid, the retained information is deleted.
If accounts are submitted to Unique National Collections, our collection service, the detailed record of amount owed, payments, returns, dates credit reported, and any updates to balances, address, or phone number is maintained on Unique's (collection service) client database. This information is retained even after the accounts are cleared for as long as the credit record.

Gov. Peter Shumlin's campaign machine, largely dormant since his victory in November 2010, is quietly starting back up as the governor's Labor Day start date approaches.
Though he maintains he won't begin campaigning until after Labor Day, Shumlin's campaign for re-election has hired on its second full-time staffer: Alex MacLean, the incumbent's 2010 campaign manager, hit the campaign trail again Monday in the same job she had last time around. She says she'll be preparing the campaign infrastructure – coordinating events, raising money, recruiting volunteers, hiring staff – so the governor can hit the ground running Sept. 4.
"Right now, I would say that I'm focused on getting the campaign ready for post-Labor Day," MacLean said. As of this week, the campaign now pays MacLean and campaign finance manager Erika Wolffing as full-time staff. MacLean said she thinks the campaign will hire one more full-time staffer.
According to MacLean, Wolffing makes $4,227.36 a month working for the campaign. MacLean wouldn't say how much she's getting paid, but noted that information will be available in the campaign's next filing Sept. 15.
Since the 2010 election, MacLean has stayed on the governor's payroll in one way or another. Paid out of Shumlin's campaign funds, she served on the the transition team as Shumlin entered the office former Gov. Jim Douglas was vacating. Once he took office, Shumlin hired MacLean as the secretary for Civil and Military Affairs, an office generally held by governors' top political advisers.
MacLean left that post Friday, Aug. 17. Shumlin's Chief of Staff Bill Lofy will take on those responsibilities, MacLean says, for the next few months.
Will she come back to the office if Shumlin wins his re-election bid? MacLean wouldn't say. She says for now, she's just focusing on the campaign.

Here's a sampler of the noteworthy things we saw, including something useful for just about any builder or remodeler.Panasonic introduced a 1/2-inch drill/driver, an impact driver, an impact wrench, and a recip saw that can be powered by the company's existing 14.4-volt or 18-volt lithium-ion batteries or by its new 4.2 amp-hour ones for exceptional runtime. Like the other tools in Panasonic's Tough IP line, the dual-voltage tools have an IP56 rating, which... Login or Register to continue reading

There are almost to many possibilities to list,
The first thing I would do is process of elimination,
Unbolt torque converter from flywheel and check to see if engine will turn,
Then check for chain and sprocket to camsahft and oil pump problem,
Most everything else will require engine removal,

Australia's international education industry has welcomed the Australian dollar's recent decline but warns that the fall needs to be sustained to bring major benefits.
"Yes we are happy that the dollar is softening somewhat," said Colin Stirling, acting vice-chancellor of Curtin University of Technology.
But he said education in Australia was a three-year investment and a more favourable exchange rate had little impact in the short term.
"But if it [the dollar exchange rate] stays where it is, that's where you'll see a very strong effect," Professor Stirling said.
Universities are expecting another increase in international student arrivals this year.
This follows healthy growth of 8.5 per cent last year in the number of international students who commenced higher education courses (up to October, which is as far as official figures go).
The upturn ended a slump which started in 2010 after the Labor government clamped down on skilled migration for international students.
Students are now being attracted back to Australian universities by a streamlined visa processing scheme which simplifies and reduces the cost of a student visa and a post-study work scheme which allows graduates to remain in Australia and work for up to two years or more.
Listed education company
Navitas group public and investor relations manager James Fuller said the fall in the dollar's value was good for the industry but was not the main driver in bringing back students.
Other factors are involved
He said the most important factors in making Australia competitive were a stable policy environment and the post-study work scheme which allowed students to go home with work experience.
Mr Fuller said that while the currency value had some impact, "the vast majority of people [studying in Australia] are relatively wealthy compared to the population in their countries and they can afford the difference".
Fiona Docherty, pro-vice-chancellor (international) of the University of NSW agreed, saying that while the lower dollar had an impact, the reputation of the university was foremost in determining student choice.
She said that UNSW was experiencing strong demand with course offers to international students up 10 per cent compared to last year.
However the falling dollar has had an immediate positive impact for English language teaching colleges, where students doing short three-month courses respond quickly to a favourable exchange rate.
"We are delighted to see the dollar going down. If the dollar comes down further and stays down its going to be a good year for us," said Sue Blundell, executive director of English Australia, which represents this sector.
However colleges offering vocational education have not yet seen an upturn in international students and the government schemes to streamline visa processing, and offer post-study work have limited benefit for them.
Claire Field, the chief executive of the Australian Council of Private Education and Training, which represents private colleges, said the value of the dollar was important but "student visa settings are also important and the Australian system remains bifurcated".

The cell type-, organ-, and species-specific expression of the pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) are well described but little is known about the respective expression profiles of their negative regulators. We therefore determined the mRNA expression levels of
Pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) are germ-line encoded receptors of the innate immune system that translate the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and tissue damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) into an immediate and antigen-unspecific inflammatory response [
Regulators of the signaling cascade can appear as enzymes, orphan receptors and adaptor proteins. A20 is a deubiquitinase that inhibits TRAF6 downstream of TLR2, -3, -4, and -9 in macrophages and thereby protects mice from endotoxic shock [
Species-specific differences in inflammation-related gene expression clearly exist [
We used real time quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) to quantify the mRNA expression levels of the following PRR signaling regulators in human solid organs:
Next, we determined the mRNA expression levels of the same PRR signaling regulators in the same organs from 12 week old C57BL/6 mice. All molecules were constitutively expressed in mouse spleen but the mRNA levels of
The phenomenon of endotoxin tolerance is largely based on the induction of negative regulators of TLR4 signaling [
Tissue injuries often involve sterile inflammation triggered by DAMPs that have the potential to activate PRR signaling just as PAMPs. Therefore, we intended to study transient versus progressive sterile tissue inflammation. We selected ischemia-reperfusion injury upon renal pedicle clamping because this model is associated with a transient TLR2/4/MyD88-mediated sterile inflammation at day 1 in association with neutrophil infiltrates (
The capacity for postischemic tissue regeneration depends on the extent of the initial injury. Extensive damage may also include loss of those progenitor stem and progenitor cells that account for the regenerative process [
PRR signaling triggers innate immunity in infectious and non-infectious forms of tissue inflammation. Counterbalancing factors are important to avoid a potentially harmful "cytokine storm" and to limit the duration of PRR signaling, a prerequisite also for the resolution of inflammation upon transient triggers. Our data demonstrate an organ- and species-specific expression pattern of the PRR signaling regulators. Only some of them are rapidly and persistently induced upon exposure to bacterial toxin in PBMCs. These and other regulators are induced in post-ischemic tissues, which may relate to the sequential recruitment of different leukocyte subsets. Progressive tissue remodeling and scaring upon severe acute injury are associated with a persistent induction of those PRR signaling regulators that are expressed during the repair phase of acute injuries.
We found several differences in the relative mRNA expression profiles of the PRR signaling regulators in mice and humans, similar to what has been described for the TLRs [
Endotoxin tolerance is a well-known
Ischemia-reperfusion injury is characterized by a serial influx of neutrophils and pro-inflammatory macrophages that contribute to the inflammatory injury phase that lasts until day 2 upon renal pedicle clamping [
We studied progressive tissue fibrosis using the same model of ischemia reperfusion injury by applying a longer ischemia time, which turned kidney recovery into kidney atrophy and scarring. There is an ongoing debate whether fibrogenesis is an independent pathomechanism of end stage (kidney) disease or whether fibrosis is rather a secondary healing response to stabilize the remaining parenchyma, whenever parenchymal healing is insufficient [
Together, we identified significant differences in the mRNA expression of PRR signaling regulators in human and mouse solid organs and in their regulation in transient inflammation and progressive tissue fibrosis. These findings can help to generate novel hypotheses on the role of single PRR signaling regulators in specific diseases. Furthermore, the species-specific expression of single PRR co-factors need to be considered in the interpretation of either data and human studies need to verify the functional roles of single factors suggested by studies performed in rodents.
Human solid organ prenormalized cDNA derived from poly-(A)-selected DNase-treated RNAs, which were purified from tissues of healthy male and female humans of caucasian descent were obtained from Clontech, Mountain View, CA. For RNA isolation, either whole organs or tissue samples representing the entire organ were used. To reduce the risk of selection bias, the purchased cDNA preparations are pools of cDNA from many human individuals for most of the organs as it is stated in the manufacturer's certificate of analysis.

Twelve week old adult C57BL/6 mice were purchased from Charles River, Sulzfeld, Germany and maintained under standard conditions and 12 h light/dark cycle. Animals were housed in polypropylene cages and allowed free access to food and water
Groups of eight week old C57BL/6 mice (
For human PBMC isolation whole blood (25 mL) was drawn from healthy volunteers into sterile syringes containing 1.6 mg EDTA/mL blood. Whole blood was diluted 1:1 with PBS, layered on Ficoll (Biochrom, Berlin, Germany)-containing density gradient and centrifuged at 2500 RPM for 22 min. Afterwards the PBMC fraction was harvested and washed twice in PBS. 1 million cells per well were plated to 6 well-plates containing 2 mL RPMI with 1% FCS and 1% P/S. For each timepoint, three samples were stimulated with 500 ng/mL LPS (Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY, USA) or PBS. After 4, 12, 18 and 24 h cells were harvested and RNA was isolated with Pure Link RNA Mini Kit according to manufacture instructions. cDNA preparation was done with 1 μg per sample as described above.
For murine PBMC isolation six week old C57BL/6 mice were sacrificed and whole blood (1 mL per mouse) was drawn into 1.6 mg EDTA/mL containing syringes and pooled. The further steps were done as described for human PBMCs.
Kidney tissues were fixed in 4% neutral-buffered formalin, dehydrated in graded alcohols and embedded in paraffin. For periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining or immunostaining 4 μm sections were deparaffinized, rehydrated, transferred into citrate buffer, and either autoclaved or microwave treated for antigen retrieval and processed as described [
Data were expressed as mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM). Comparison between groups was performed using univariate ANOVA (A value of

(1/14/2013) Roni Siswandi – an educator and husband to Josephine Komara of the internationally renowned Bin's House, died suddenly on Thursday morning, January 10, 2013, age 59, presumably of cardiac arrest.
A man of limitless intellectual curiosity that fed his wide and comprehensive grasp of Indonesian culture, Ronny left a lasting impression on all he knew and the country he loved.
His funeral is scheduled for Thursday, January 17, 2013 at the Kerta Semadi Crematory at Taman Mumbul. The funeral entourage will leave from his Bali residence at Jalan Umaaas II number 86 at 10:00 a.m., where his body lies in state.
A close personal friend of both Ronny and O'Bin (Jospehine), Peter Meyer, wrote conveying his sentiments on the death of this remarkable man who was his friend.
We share Peter Meyer's comments below, recalling Ronny Siswandi.
Roni Siswandi 1953-2013
The fact is that he has always, and that very successfully, avoided publicity and that we don't even have a formal CV to share with you.
But, let me put in writing what is coming to my mind right now - without much research and straight from the heart.
Roni was born November 10, 1953, and was the youngest amongst 8 siblings. Given the difficult times that prevailed during his upbringing, Roni, early on in his life, was already exposed to the need to be self-reliant; ready to work hard and to assume responsibilities that, for many individuals of his age, would have been far more than they would have been able to handle.
When he set his mind to it, Roni could achieve goals nobody would have given him credit for. For that matter, having discovered an interest in Indonesia's historical and cultural past, Roni decided to get his formal education at Universitas Indonesia, where he did not only graduated from the archeological and anthropological faculties, but was invited to join the country's foremost academic institution as a lecturer in these, his specialty fields.
What set Roni aside from the many intellectuals he encountered, was his ability to apply the theoretical knowledge and experience he had gained along the way to the world outside academia. He was able to translate history and culture into valuable contributions to about all areas his many interests touched. In this way he made a quiet mark on hundreds of projects, always careful to remain outside the spotlight and to direct the resulting applause to the people close to him.
Foremost amongst these was the love of his life, Ibu Josephine Komara, better known as O'Bin, who, in cooperation with Roni, created the world famous Bin House a true center of "Indonesian Creations" and a serious reflection of Josphine's and Roni's devotion and commitment to the cultural values as well as a tight circle of family and friends, they shared for decades.
There is no easy way to attach a "catch all" predicate to describe Roni Siswandi. He just was too multi-faceted in his many interests, talents and in the commitments he mede to the family he loved, to the people who worked for him and admired him as "Bapak Roni," and the many friends who benefitted from his devotion, honesty and guidance.
He will just have to be remembered as Roni – "one of a kind" and never to be forgotten.

Subj: number of generations for DNA testing
Date: 11/22/03 8:30:33 AM Pacific Standard Time
Hi --
I am not a subscriber to the @@@@ mailing list, but I run the GENEALOGY-DNA
mailing list, and I have an automated search for the keyword "DNA" in other
mailing lists. That's how I spotted your post.
I suspect your nephew is referring to the type of testing done for paternity
cases, where you can absolutely prove a connection. Paternity testing uses
markers which get shuffled with every generation. It's really one specific form
of relationship testing, one that can be extended to the grandparent or first
cousin level. After that, you can't really prove anything at all as far as a
SPECIFIC relationship.
However, DNA testing for genealogy uses some special cases: the Y chromosome,
which is handed down intact through the paternal line, and mtDNA, which is
handed down intact from the maternal line. That can tell you if you have a
common ancestor somewhere in the straight male or female line, but it can't tell
you whether that happened one generation ago or many generations ago.
You may forward this to the @@@@ list if you wish.

Hey Fans,
So this weekend has been so special as I was asked to perform at both Preston and Lincoln Pride 2014. Such a fun way to spend my September weekend.
I really enjoyed both events!! Gay Pride is such a fantastic charity!! The majority of my fans are Gay so I love when I get to perform at Pride events as the crowd really get my music and image and what I am all about as an artist.
I travelled down to Preston on the Saturday and then Lincoln on the Sunday. I drove over 1'000 miles over the weekend which was crazy as I had to make a pit stop back to Glasgow on Saturday night...no rest for the wicked!!
The crowd though at Lincoln Pride on the Sunday was however the best by far they were such an amazing audience and I got the best cheer that I have had at a gig in ages!! I met Kitty Brucknell from X Factor and rap band "Big Brovaz" as they were also performing at the event!!
I then headed to the official afterparty at "The Scene Nightclub" late at night to take to the stage once more and entertain the crowd!!! Honestly it was the best and most enjoyable performance I have did in ages!! It totally renewed my passion and spark for being a music artist!!!
Hopefully see you all again at both Prides next year!!
Love Ashley xxx

2000 750il torque converter removal/installation
Has anyone actually personally as a DIY replaced the torque converter in their 750il ?
I am looking for a tutorial for the V-12 transmission/torque converter removal and installation from an actual DIY V-12 owner (thanks, but it's not the same procudure as the V-8). Once I complete this task, I will share my experience with the forum, but for right now I really need V-12, 750il SPECIFIC guidance.
Service manuals go gung-ho on removing everything in sight, yet I know from past experience that certain jobs can be performed leaving certain things installed, such as exhaust systems.
Thanks in advance for any assistance specific to the V-12 750il.
I'd imagine that it would be just like any other torque converter removal on any other car. I don't know if there are any extra steps on the V-12 model, but I don't see why there would be.
-Disconnect battery
-Take off the starter
-Take off exhaust system under transmission
-Take off driveshaft
-Disconnect electrical connections and transmission lines from the transmission
-Remove the torque converter bolts from the flywheel
-Remove the transmission mounts and bell housing bolts with jack under transmission
-Lower transmission and pull out the torque converter
If you've heard of any extra steps on the V-12 models, I'd be interested in hearing them just out of curiousity.
I have not done it, I could pull out the steps for removal/installation for the 2000 750 . It is a little bit confusing since I didn't pull the pictures too. I will try that later ... Hope it helps :

Sorry for the spelling errors , the soft is a little bit outdated ...
i HAVE DONE THIS, BUT IT WAS ON A STAND.
I have removed a torque converter and I did not use a special tool, but the engine was sitting on the floor. I hoisted the engine up and there is an access hole in the bottom of the engine, point a socket back, facing the rear of the engine, and shoot a bolt off one at a time, turning the engine over between bolts. I did not use a special tool.
I don;t know if this will help or not.

My computer is an ASUS A8JS laptop with one SATA hard disk. I downloaded the lastest snapshot (13-08-07). Problems persists. Running "/usr/local/pcbsd/scripts/PCBSD.FindDisk.sh" gets the response "/usr/local/pcbsd/scripts/PCBSD.FindDisk.sh: 13: Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string" I am no programmer but I had a quick look at the script. The comment at the beginning of the second section "If we couldn't find anything in the dmesg file, look for devices instead" is not commented out. This probably isn't the real problem but it might prevent the second part of the script from running. Hope this helps Ron

SPORTS >>Cabot North takes two from South freshman
Leader sports writer
The North vs. South rivalry was all Cabot North on Monday night at the North campus gym, as the North
Panthers and Lady Panthers defeated their crosstown rivals in a pair of Metro-conference matchups.
The North girls dominated South in the first game of the night, beating South 36-16, while the North Panthers
won 36-29 with another strong performance from Adam Sterrenberg.
The boys contest started out very slowly, with the first quarter resulting in a 2-2 tie heading
into the second frame. The offensive pace picked up in the next eight minutes, with North
leading at halftime 19-11. Outside shooting would be the key for North in the second quarter, with three-point
shots from Jack Bridges, Nathan Holland and Sterrenberg, including two from Bridges. The second
three pointer from Bridges at the 2:55 mark gave North a 14-8 lead, and made for the last time in the game that
South trailed by a single score.
North only outscored South 8-7 in the third quarter, but still held momentum heading into the final period.
Austin Johnson tried to make up the early deficit for South in the fourth, scoring eight of his total 20
points in the period, but it would not be enough. North claimed the win to give them a final overall standing of second in the
Metro Conference, with a 12-4 Metro record for the season. We were trying to go more to
the spread game, North coach Keith Watkins said. We were in bonus, so I thought if we could just
hit our free throws we could gap them enough. They started coming back a little bit on us, but we
had enough people step up at the end and make free throws.
Sterrenberg led North with 20 points in the game, and shared high scorer honors with Souths
Johnson, who also came away with 20 points on the night. The girls game started out competitive,
with the North ladies holding a slight 7-5 lead at the end of the first quarter. A blistering second from North
put the game out of reach for South, as they were held to only two points in the entire quarter.
North scored 17 of their own before the half, to take a commanding 24-7 lead heading into
the second half. Jenna Bailey scored all of her game-high 13 points in the first
half for North, including a jumper and a three pointer with 49 seconds left in the first quarter to give
them the early lead. North held South to two points again in the third quarter, but this
time only scored four points themselves.
The low-scoring period resulted in a 30-9 North lead at the start of the fourth quarter.
Shelby Ashcraft was Souths only scorer in the final frame, scoring
six points inside. Ashcraft finished with 12 on the night, but with
only four points in the game from the rest of the team, Ashcrafts
solid performance was far from enough for South. North tacked on
six more points in the fourth to take the 20-point win.
The North girls finished second overall in the Metro Conference, with a final overall record of 16-4
and a Metro record of 14-2. North Lady Panthers head coach Kelley Spencer says her team has overcome
a lot of adversity this season, and has continued to improve. It has been an up and down
season for us, Spencer said.
They have had a lot of challenges this year with a new coach and a new system, and they have
adapted well. I think we are playing our best basketball right now, and it couldnt come at a better

White Sheet Cake for an American Flag Cake Recipe
Of course, learning how to make a flag cake starts with... a cake! The flag is all in the decorating. Here is a simple (and always successful) recipe for a white sheet cake that works great for 4th of July flag cake recipes. But you can use whatever kind of cake you want! Have fun with it.
And if you're short on time, there's no shame in skipping the hard stuff and making a cake mix. Who will know?
The vanilla butter cream frosting recipe for the flag cake will follow, along with directions for decorating your 4th of July flag cake recipe.
3 lg. eggs, at room temperature
1/2 C. unsalted butter, softened
1 C. granulated sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
2 C. cake flour, sifted
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 C. milk
Instructions: 1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9x13" baking pan. If you plan to serve your American flag cake recipe in the pan, just greasing it is fine. If you'd like to remove the cake for a prettier presentation, lightly flour the pan, as well.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In another large mixing bowl, beat together the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about three minutes.
4. One at a time, add the eggs to the butter mixture, beating on medium-high speed between each addition. Add the vanilla. Beat about 3 minutes, until well mixed.
5. Stir in a third of the flour mixture, followed by a third of the milk. Repeat twice more until all flour and milk have been incorporated. Mix your batter just til combined.
6. Pour into your pan, and bake until a tester comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
7. Cool completely on a wire rack.
Vanilla Butter Cream Frosting for a Flag Cake
1/2 C. unsalted butter, softened
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla extract
4 C. powdered sugar, sifted
5-6 tbsp. light cream (or whole milk)
Instructions: 1. In a medium mixing bowl, beat the butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy and soft. Beat in salt and vanilla.
2. With the mixer set on low, alternate adding the sugar and milk, beating between each addition, until smooth and creamy. Keep stored in the refrigerator until ready to frost your cake.
How to Make a Flag Cake: Fruit Decorations
1 pint blueberries
1-2 pints raspberries or strawberries
Instructions: 1. If using strawberries, cut them in half.
2. Arrange blueberries in the upper left corner of the cake, on top of the frosting, to symbolize stars.
3. Create bars across your cake by adding stripes of raspberries or halved strawberries horizontally across the cake.
Bored? Check below for some more creative ways to decorate a flag cake for the Fourth of July.
Red, White, and Blue "Super Layer" Cake
While I love the standard version of this American flag cake recipe, I think this is probably the most impressive of all my "alternative" versions.
How to Make It: To make this version of a 4th of July flag cake, you'll want to make one and a half times the cake batter recipe above, and you'll want to double the frosting recipe. You'll also need some red and some blue food coloring.
Grease and flour three 9" round cake pans. When your cake batter is mixed, divide it into three equal-sized batches. Into one batch, add enough blue food coloring to turn it blue, to another add red, and leave the last plain. Put each color in its own pan, and bake according to the directions above (they may need less time to bake!).
Cool, stack into a layer cake (putting frosting between each layer), frost, and decorate as desired.
"Patriot on the Inside" Cake
How to Make it: Bake a white sheet cake as instructed above (or do two round layers in an 8 or 9" pan). Let cool completely.
When cake is cool, poke holes in it about 1/2" apart. Prepare one batch of red (whatever flavor) Jello and one batch of blue Jello according to package directions (but don't chill-- you want it liquid). Alternating colors, pour a little red food coloring in one hole, and a little blue in the next. You won't use all the Jello mixture, so don't try to!
Or, to make a layer cake as pictured, make one of your cake layers with the red Jello, and the other with the blue.
Chill, frost and decorate as normal, and wait for your guests to be surprised by the patriotic insides!
Bright and Tasty 4th of July Flag Cake
How to Make it: Make a flag sheet cake as directed above. Buy a can of cherry pie filling, and rinse the sauce off the cherries (or leave it on-- your choice). Use your rinsed cherries to make your red stripes. Use mini marshmallows to make your white stripes.
Here, fondant was used to make a blue background and white stars... but I think the effect would be just as good or better with fresh blueberries, instead.
With the cherries, this one is particularly good with a cream cheese frosting!
Other American Flag Cake Decoration IdeasLooking for some more ways to decorate a creative American flag cake recipe? Check out some of the flag cake photos below for inspiration!
The Star-Shaped Flag Cake
This cake is baked in a star-shaped cake pan with sliced strawberries in the middle, piped-on white frosting accents, and pretty fresh blueberries.
The Double Raspberry Stripes Flag Cake
Instead of the traditional strawberries, this fruit flag cake recipe uses a double-row of raspberries for the red stripes, and piped-on white frosting for the white stripes.
The Waving American Flag Cake
This flag cake looks like it's waving in the wind! To get this effect, the blueberries were arranged in a curving line, and stripes of sliced strawberries were arranged in a slightly wavy pattern.
The Fruit-Free Flag Cake
Prefer sprinkles to fruit? This American flag cake recipe was make with red sugar sprinkle stripes and star sprinkle stars. Be sure to use a steady hand when doing the stripes!
