Nevada and Delaware Sign Online Poker Pact, Share Player Pool
The states of Nevada and Delaware - two of the first three states in the US to officially legalize online poker - are set to sign an historic agreement today that will allow for a shared player pool.
According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Gov. Brian Sandoval of Nevada and Gov. Jack Markell of Delaware will meet in Wilmington today to officially sign the pact.
Details on how the arrangement will work, the Review-Journal said, will be proposed by licensed vendors in the two states and subject to approval by gaming regulators.
The historic agreement is the first in what is eventually expected to be several intrastate agreements in lieu of federal online poker legislation.
Player Pool Still Small But Expected to Grow
Of the three states with legal online poker Nevada and Delaware are the smallest, making the shared liquidity an important step in boosting new signups.
Revenue from online poker is still small in both states with Delaware reporting under $100k in online poker rake in January.
Nevada recently added a third active poker site - Real Gaming - to its original two sites in WSOP.com and Ultimate Poker but traffic overall is still fairly slow.
Cash-game averages at WSOP.com and Ultimate Poker in Nevada are still at 209 and 145 players per day, respectively, according to PokerScout.com.
More on the Nevada-Delaware agreement is expected to be released later today. The signing of the deal will take place at 11 a.m. in Wilmington with video coverage available at DelawareOnline.com.

Instrument Cluster Compatibility question for 1995 E36 318i
Hey guys,
This is my first post on the forum. I'm wondering if anyone's got any experience with this...
I took my 1995 E36 318i to a nearby garage because I was having some strange eletrical problems... power windows, power locks, sunroof, and instrument panel weren't working.. but everything else was. they ended up testing the BCM - body control module and got everything working again except for the instrument cluster. So they told me I have to replace the instrument cluster because it's dead... apparently there was a power surge that blew out those systems and left the cluster fried. Anyways, the price for a new/re-manufactured one from BMW is ~$500.
Well, I've been shopping around for instrument clusters and found one on Ebay for $75 +s/h
The description says it will "fit" any 92-99 BMW E36 3-Series... but I'm wondering how can that be? I tried contacting the seller, but they haven't gotten back to me. Are instrument clusters in all E36 3-series from 92-99 compatible with each other? My old cluster looks almost exactly like the cluster in the picture except in mine the last tic on the speedometer reads 160mph while the listed one reads 140 mph.
I spoke with the mechanic at the garage and he seemed very skeptical about it. He says the tiniest difference would cause it to be incompatible with the BCM, i.e they'd be unable to communicate.
Has anyone had experience replacing their E36 Instrument Clusters? Were you able to replace your old 160mph cluster with a newer E36 cluster that has a 140mph speedometer? Would I be advised purchasing a used one or a new/remanufactured one from BMW?
You can adapt a cluster to many different years through "coding". Still, I probably wouldn't bid until you find out its part number (which is printed on it) so that you can look up it's compatibility. I am not sure if the seller knows because some of the text is incorrect or contradictory.
You know, when I was reading your post I was thinking:
"$500?! Why not just call Bavarian Auto Recycling and get a refurbished cluster?"
Then I clicked the link and the auction you found is actually being hosted by BavAutoRecycling! They are a reputable company and actually have representatives that post on some other BMW forums.
I can't offer a definite answer on this question. I do find it hard to believe that the cluster went unchanged from 92-99. BMW is known for making changes in the pin layout for thier electrical connectors even in things as simple as window switches.
The number for BavAutoRec is posted in the auction, just call them for an answer on this. Ask them if they have a direct swap for a 318. I've bought parts from them before, they are helpful.
Let us know how this works out for you!

Here are some pics: Backpack configuration: Is the price worth the quality and workmanship of the bag? The other thread mentioned how low the thread count was, does this really matter? Thanks.

After only about a year since their last release, The Avett Brothers are cranking out another album and that is good news for fans because, really, a bad Avett Brothers album is still a good album. Their last album The Carpenter was a bad Avett Brothers album compared to 2009's I And Love And You or 2004's Mignonette, but it still has some of the most beautiful songs of 2012 on it.

Joy Williams and John Paul White are one of the most surprisingly popular bands of the last few years.

God and Country Music: Traditionalism as a Shadow of Reconciliation

This means that out of every ten blokes you'll meet, at least four of them probably love that high and lonesome sound. So according to Greil Marcus' school of thought (and mine, and you know, a lot of people), what is being said i … [Read more...]

Apple has released another update to its iTunes software, dubbed version 10.2.2. This update focuses on "important" bug fixes, and doesn't bring any notable new features. The changes Apple has documented with this new release are as follows:
Addresses an issue where iTunes may become unresponsive when syncing an iPad.
Resolves an issue which may cause syncing photos with iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to take longer than necessary.
Fixes a problem where video previews on the iTunes Store may skip while playing.
Addresses other issues that improve stability and performance.
An iTunes update that will actually bring new features doesn't look like it'll be showing up anytime soon, as we'll probably have to wait for an announcement of the next major iOS release (likely to be iOS 5) before that time comes. For now, bug fixes are always helpful, so be sure to grab iTunes 10.2.2 from Software Update or Apple's web site.
Yet again, iOS hacker MuscleNerd has stated via his Twitter that the new version of iTunes is safe for jailbreakers as well as unlockers using their iDevices on unofficial carriers, through the following tweet: "iTunes 10.2.2 confirmed safe for JBers (DFU, saved SHSHs, syncing). Safe for ultrasn0w and recent IMEI unlockers too."

Beck's recent, frequent analogies between the civil rights movement and the right-wing protest groups known as the tea parties would seem to lead skeptical viewers to think otherwise.

Robert A.M. Stern Architects recently announced Anna Antropova, a master's degree candidate at the McGill University School of Architecture, as the recipient of the 2014 RAMSA Travel Fellowship. The $10,000 fellowship will fund Antropova's trip to Japan, where she will study ancient wood joinery techniques. Her research focuses on the potential transformation and reintroduction of applying ancient timber techniques to modern construction.

"'This elegant and efficient mode of construction could meaningfully inform our western building industry, an industry addicted to toxic adhesives and an indiscriminate application of metal fasteners. Wood stands to be for our generation what steel and concrete were for the previous two or three, and Japanese joinery offers us a sustainable mode of assembly for a sustainable material with far less embodied energy.' Ms. Antropova aims to reintroduce these techniques, ultimately uniting 'old and new, east and west, tradition and modernity.'"

Antropova was selected from a field of 20 applicants preselected by their educational institutions.

This year's jury consisted of RAMSA partners Melissa DelVecchio, Dan Lobitz, and Grant F. Marani. Margaret Marsh facilitated the discussion and process.

The new directors of the school, [AA, DC, MB said (on record and in a recording) that the university was a corporation and their first interest was not education. If education is a business, shouldn't we know what we are paying for?

 This document is a copy of the cyclical unit review performed by the University for the SoA in spring of this year. The result of the review may or may not have been the forced resignation of Professor Michael Jemtrud - an visionary individual who was making important and progressive changes within the curriculum of the school. Given that this is such a positive assessement of Jemtrud and his work over the last four years, it begs the question - who were the individuals who had lost faith in his leadership abilities? was this perhaps more because they were threatened by his agenda? and where does the school go from here given that the new director has yet to make a public presentation of her particular vision for the school ?
 http://archinect.com/news/article/11046632/alleged-forced-resignation-at-mcgill-university-stirs-backlash-from-students Alleged Forced Resignation at McGill University Stirs Backlash from Students Paul Petrunia 2011-06-24T12:37:28-04:00 >2011-11-24T09:05:52-05:00
 Word has been spreading since yesterday about the resignation of Michael Jemtrud, Director of McGill's School of Architecture. Archinect has just been anonymously informed, however, that "a very reliable senior faculty source within the school" has confirmed that the resignation was forced and that Jemtrud is not allowed to talk about it.

 The message we received follows:

 On Thursday, June 23, 2011, Michael Jemtrud was forced to resign from his position as Director of McGill University School of Architecture. Jemtrud was hired four years ago with a mandate to integrate current technologies into the professional programs, to reinvigorate critical discussion and research about their use, and to foster a clearer organizational structure and closer collaborations within the school's many professional and post-professional programs. Jemtrud approached the job with a distinct vision and direction, and an ability to move quickly while continuing to foster the school's longstanding str...

THE group in charge of Wyre Forest's health budget has scored highly in a national report on end of life health services.
Wyre Forest Clinical Commissioning Group (WFCCG) was praised for its palliative care after figures published by Public Health England's national end of life intelligence network revealed 57 per cent of district patients were given the chance to die at home, compared to 44 per cent nationally.
Dr Simon Rumley, WFCCG chairman, said: "Offering patients the opportunity to spend their final precious days in the place of their choice involves a great deal of dedication from all members of the palliative care team in Wyre Forest. This hard work is greatly appreciated by patients and their families.
"The results are due to a positive working relationship between our nursing teams and GPs. When it comes to end of life care the focus is on the needs of patients and their carers and we aim to work proactively to support everyone."
The Worcestershire Health and Care NHS Trust provides end of life care in the county.
Matt Stringer, the trust's community care lead, said: "It is so important to patients and their families end of life care is shaped around them and their wishes and we have made great strides in ensuring our services across the county, including Wyre Forest, do that.
"There is still more to do, however and we believe greater integration with other teams and benchmarking against other trusts will help maintain and even improve on the high standards of palliative care we already provide."
The Public Health England report brings together research during 2013 from a wide range of research organisations and charities. It looks at the influence of marital status and ethnicity on place of death, patient experience, the role of the community and palliative care.

Tumeric Side Effects and Cautions
by N J Howell
Related Articles:
Ginger Side Effects > Spirulina Side Effects
Tumeric Information: This is part of a series of short articles on side effects of natural remedies and on this page I'm exploring potential side effects from an herb I know and love.
I take tumeric for it's anti-inflammatory properties. It helps with joint and muscle pain, for me. Others may use it because of the antioxidant content, which is rich. In Ayurvedic medicine, tumeric is often used to address stomach or liver toxicity. However, if I take too much of this potent herb, I may experience discomfort.
Side Effects of Tumeric:
Tumeric may cause upset stomach or nausea for some, or at some dosages, as well as bowel changes including diahrrea or constipation. While turmeric is used in some cases to support the liver, there is also some evidence that it's use might make a preexisting condition worse. I'm not sure I'd consider tumeric the best choice to support the body in cases of liver or gallbladder condition. Talk it over with your doctor if you have a liver or gallbladder challenge. Talking with a practitioner well-versed in ayurvedic medicine could help an individual better determine whether or not to use tumeric, given specific conditions and situations.
Turmeric may also be contraindicated when the blood does not clot properly or a person is on blood thinners due to concern about the herb causing increased bleeding - talk to your doctor if this applies to you. If you are taking coumadin or warfarin, in particular, definitely discuss with your doctor any decision to add a natural blood thinner because too thin blood may be just as dangerous as too thick blood.
Health Disclaimer: The potential side effects of taking tumeric is a partial list some of the more common cautions and side effects associated with the herb. If you are under a doctor's care for any known medical condition, and specifically conditions relating to liver or gallbladder, or if you have any conditions affecting the ability of the blood to clot, or you are on blood thinners, talk to your doctor before taking turmeric.

Webber to race in China, father says
The Australian is not pondering his future after a contentious finish to the Malaysian Grand Prix
Mark Webber is not considering his future in Formula One and will drive in next month's Chinese Grand Prix despite a strained relationship with Red Bull teammate Sebastian Vettel, his father said yesterday.
The Australian, 36, was incensed when Vettel defied orders and overtook him to snatch victory in Sunday's Malaysia Grand Prix.
He returned to Australia for some reflection and was reported to be contemplating missing the April 14 Chinese Grand Prix, but his father Alan said his son would be on the Shanghai starting grid.
"We'll be up in China for the next one," Alan Webber told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
After the race Vettel said "I'm not proud I did it" and Webber's father said he believed the triple world champion was sincere, but the damage to the already fractured relationship had been done.
"I think it will take a while to earn the respect and trust again," he said.
Webber said it was not just his son who was upset with Vettel, pointing out that the Britain-based Red Bull team had also expressed their displeasure.
"Sebastian disobeyed team orders and most, if not all the team, are disappointed with him," he said.
"Up and down pit lane Mark has not lost any credibility at all. It's probably Sebastian who has lost an awful lot."
Alan Webber said Red Bull co-owner Dietrich Mateschitz had confirmed his son's position on the team was "assured".
Formula One commercial rights holder Bernie Ecclestone has warned that the incident could come back to haunt Red Bull.
"Let's assume that these two guys are in a position to win the championship at the end of the year, then there is no way that Mark is going to help Sebastian," Ecclestone told Britain's Daily Telegraph.
"So Sebastian has to think about that. Maybe there will be a stage when he would like Mark to help him, but I don't think Mark is going to come up front and do it," he said.
Webber and Vettel have a strained relationship, with the Australian openly questioning the support he gets from the team hierarchy, compared to what the German receives.

The 2014 Ryder Cup dates confirmed
The 2014 Ryder Cup at The Gleneagles Hotel, Perthshire, Scotland, will take place from Friday September 26 to Sunday September 28, 2014.
The date for the 40th staging of the biennial contest between Europe and the United States was announced at The Gleneagles Hotel in the presence of Scotland's First Minister, The Rt Hon Alex Salmond MSP, European Ryder Cup Director Richard Hills, Peter Lederer, Chairman of Gleneagles Hotel, and Patrick Elsmie, Managing Director of The Gleneagles Hotel.
Alex Salmond MSP, said: "As the home of golf, Scotland is well placed to host the best Ryder Cup in the competition's history when it arrives at Gleneagles in 2014.
"The arrangements for this spectacular event are well underway, and I am delighted to announce today that the 2014 event will be held over September 23-28, allowing the tens of thousands of spectators expected to attend to begin making their travel plans in earnest.
"I am also delighted to have seen for myself today the many exciting changes that are being made to improve this already outstanding golf course. As well as the hi-tech efforts to reduce water on the greens, the Ryder Cup Teams can expect many of the changes - proposed by Jack Nicklaus - to provide a sterner test as they seek glory during the competition.
"During the week of The Ryder Cup itself, the Scottish economy is expected to benefit by up to £100m, as visitors flock from across the globe to experience superb golf on one of the best courses in the world.
"But the benefits of the tournament will long outlive that special week and be felt for many years to come. As well as the lasting economic benefit, having the world's premier golf team event on our doorstep will allow thousands of young Scottish golfers chance to see the very best the sport has to offer up close, giving them an experience they will never forget and inspiring them to achieve great things in the future."
Richard Hills said: "Gleneagles have worked closely with Jack Nicklaus Golf Design to deliver a great course and I am certain the Gleneagles team, and Scotland, will deliver an outstanding Ryder Cup in three years' time."
Patrick Elsmie said: "We are excited that the dates have now been confirmed for The Ryder Cup and are looking forward to the prospect of welcoming the world's greatest golfers to Gleneagles in 2014.
"We were delighted to re-open the Dormy Clubhouse this spring, following a £3 million refurbishment, and to announce the new appointment of Stuart McEwen, as Director of Golf. This winter we are continuing work on The PGA Centenary Course in conjunction with Jack Nicklaus, with the intention of having the course alterations completed by May 2012."

Add a little pasta water if necessary to keep the sauce liquid.
Cook the sauce on a low-medium heat, while stirring occasionally for 15-20 minutes, or until the sauce seems set.
Set out bowls of the sauce for dipping, or let guests spoon it over their chicken and fennel.
The chunks should be nearly covered by the sauce; add more hot water if necessary.
In a bowl mix together the mayonnaise, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce to make the cocktail sauce.
It adds piquancy to conversation, as a mushroom does to a sauce.
But there wos a brat all rags and dirty face and sauce as I was when you saw me fust.
Place the cucumbers carefully on a platter and pour the sauce around them.
When browned dip in the sauce of the chicken and serve the whole together.
Plain boil a sole in salt and water and pour the sauce over it (see Turbot la Hollandaise, No. 206).
mid-14c., from Old French sauce, sausse, from Latin salsa "things salted, salt food," noun use of fem. singular or neuter plural of adjective salsus "salted," from past participle of Old Latin sallere "to salt," from sal (genitive salis) "salt" (see salt (n.)).
Meaning "something which adds piquancy to words or actions" is recorded from c.1500; sense of "impertinence" first recorded 1835 (see saucy, and cf. sass). Slang meaning "liquor" first attested 1940.
mid-15c., "to season," from sauce (n.). From 1862 as "to speak impertinently." Related: Sauced; saucing.

A pitching duel between a pair of lefties kept Tim Tebow out of the starting lineup Saturday in Kissimmee.
An announced crowd of 5,515 at Osceola County Stadium — a season-high for the Florida Fire Frogs — left dejected as Tebow watched from the dugout as the home team pulled out a wild 5-4 win in 15 innings over his St. Lucie Mets.
Anfernee Seymour drove in the winning run on a sac-fly to left field for Florida.
Tebow and the Mets round out their only Florida State League series in the area Sunday at 6:05 p.m. and Monday at 7:05 p.m.

Washington (AP) - President Barack Obama is applauding Pakistan and Afghanistan for their commitment to helping the U.S. fight terrorists holed up in their territory, but he also is cautioning that the path to success is slow and unsure.
"The road ahead will be difficult," Obama said Wednesday after a series of meetings with Afghan President Hamid Karzai and Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari that yielded few announced new commitments. "There will be more violence, and there will be setbacks."
Obama added, "The United States has made a lasting commitment to defeat al-Qaida, but also to support the democratically elected sovereign governments of both Pakistan and Afghanistan. That commitment will not waver, and that support will be sustained."
Obama's national security adviser, Gen. Jim Jones, told reporters later that Obama was clear in his support for Zardari, who has come under heavy U.S. criticism for doing too little to combat a Taliban insurgency. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, for example, told Congress last week that Pakistan was "abdicating" to the Taliban extremists.
"The president pledged to do whatever we could, to do what we can as quickly as possible to help the Pakistani government, and said this type of aid would not just be restricted to military," Jones said. "Miracles will not happen, so this won't happen quickly. But with a common focus, we can make strides hopefully in the near future."
Wednesday's meetings, which began at the State Department and then moved to the White House, had the added complication of reports that U.S. airstrikes on Sunday had killed dozens of civilians in western Afghanistan. The top U.S. commander in Afghanistan suggested that the Taliban might be to blame, but Obama and Clinton felt compelled to respond sympathetically.
Obama expressed U.S. regret, promising to "make every effort" to avoid further tragedies as allied forces press the fight against a rising Taliban insurgency.
Obama also used the occasion to laud "unprecedented cooperation" between Afghanistan and Pakistan, which share a long, poorly demarcated and porous border.
"Along the border, where insurgents often move freely, we must work together with a renewed sense of partnership to share intelligence and to coordinate our efforts to isolate, target and take out our common enemy," Obama said in a statement delivered at the White House with Karzai and Zardari at his side.
Obama took no questions from reporters and neither of the other leaders spoke. Obama met separately with Karzai and Zardari, followed by a three-way session.
The latest report of Afghan civilian casualties came at an especially awkward time for the administration, which is stepping up its military campaign inside Afghanistan while also seeking to emphasize the importance of nonmilitary efforts to stabilize the country. The administration has pledged, for example, a major increase in civilian expertise in farming and other specialties.
Obama's strategy, unveiled in late March, already is threatened by setbacks to his goal of strengthening a shaky Pakistani government, eliminating al-Qaida and Taliban sanctuaries on the Pakistan side of the Afghan border and fighting Afghan government corruption. Claims of U.S. culpability for civilian deaths in Afghanistan are an added burden.
Jones told reporters that the president began his meeting with Karzai by addressing the reported civilian deaths Sunday. Jones said Obama commented "with great sympathy" and expressed regret for the loss of innocent life. Earlier, before her meetings with Karzai and Zardari at the State Department, Clinton said the U.S. "deeply, deeply" regrets the loss of civilian lives.
Both Obama and Clinton stopped short of accepting U.S. blame for the deaths.
Obama told Karzai that investigations "will be pursued aggressively with full intent to discover what in fact did happen, how it happened and how we can make sure that things like that do not happen again. And it was clear that President Karzai was moved by that ... and he thanked the president for starting off the meeting with that expression of condolence."
Karzai did not ask that U.S. airstrikes be suspended or reduced in intensity pending the outcome of the investigation, Jones said.
Nor did Zardari raise an equally sensitive topic on his side of the border -- the use of U.S. Predator aircraft to attack extremist targets, Jones said. Pakistanis have strongly protested those attacks, saying they have killed innocent civilians.
In Afghanistan, the U.S. forces commander said it wasn't a certainty that Sunday's deaths were a result of U.S. military action. Gen. David McKiernan said American forces came to the aid of Afghans who may have been ambushed by the Taliban. He said the Taliban beheaded three civilians, perhaps to lure police.
"We have some other information that leads us to distinctly different conclusions about the cause of the civilian casualties," McKiernan said. He would not elaborate.
Karzai, whose public criticism of U.S. airstrikes has grown increasingly indignant, thanked Clinton politely for her concern.
"We appreciate that," Karzai said.
In his remarks at the White House, Obama emphasized the progress he said was achieved in the Washington meetings.
"We have advanced unprecedented cooperation," Obama declared. "We will work for the day when our nations are linked not by a common enemy but by a shared peace and prosperity."
Veteran diplomat Richard Holbrooke, the administration's point man for Afghanistan and Pakistan and a participant in the meetings, was upbeat in brief remarks after Obama summarized the day's talks. "It was a day that exceeded our expectations," Holbrooke said. "We turned a corner" in improving coordination with Afghanistan and Pakistan.
The stakes couldn't be higher, Obama said.
"We have learned time and again that our security is shared," the president said. "It is a lesson that we learned most painfully on 9/11, and it is a lesson that we will not forget."
Associated Press writers Anne Gearan, Jennifer Loven and Ben Feller contributed to this report.
"The road ahead will be difficult," Obama said Wednesday after a series of meetings with Afghan President Hamid Karzai and Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari that yielded few announced new commitments. "There will be more violence, and th

- Product Subcategory: N2 System with Vortex Motion (nitrogen blow down)
The RapidVap N2 Evaporation Systems offer a more efficient, automatic alternative to Kuderna-Danish and rotary evaporators and may be used with a broad range of aggressive chemicals. In RapidVap N2 Systems, a stream of nitrogen or dry gas is directed downward onto the surface of the sample. Nitrogen blow down reduces the partial pressure directly over the liquid to speed evaporation and help remove the solvent as it evaporates. Nitrogen may be programmed for 2, 4, 6 or all 8 tube locations. Vortex motion and dry heat may also be applied to further accelerate processing.
The block holds eight large samples, up to 450 milliliters each, making it efficient for environmental and residue testing. An accessory block that holds eight 170 milliliter tubes suitable for solid phase extraction is also available. In many of these applications, the samples should not go to dryness. The unique Cool-Zone block and tube design significantly reduces the evaporation rate after end point is achieved. The Cool-Zone insulates the samples and allows the researcher adequate time before the samples reach dryness to remove them or to perform solvent exchange procedures. Alarms that signal when timed end point has occurred and when the RapidVap senses that the process is nearing completion allow for unattended operation.
• Fast evaporation rates. Methylene chloride evaporates at a rate up to 7.3 ml/minute/tube. Water evaporates at a rate up to 1.1 ml/minute/tube.

Wondering if well-known prankster Mel Gibson pulled any fast ones on co-star Heath Ledger on the set of The Patriot?
"He didn't!," a surprised Ledger tells TV Guide Online. "That was the prank. And I was waiting the whole shoot; I was waiting for somebody to turn over my trailer or my trailer to turn up somewhere, something!"
This 4th of July, Aussie native Ledger says he'll be celebrating his independence on a grand scale. "I'm twenty-one years old, I'm on a journey, I left my tribe and I've got my flask and my spear," he says of his pilgrimage to Hollywood. "I said, 'I'm going off on my journey. I'll see you in ten years. I'll come back with goods and life stories and emotions and I'll share them with you.'"
The actor, who proved he has what it takes to star opposite Gibson, says he won't let the competitiveness of Tinsletown deter him. "It's a matter of not letting anything, the industry and all the bulls--t and the hype and people blowing smoke up your a-- and all, get to you. When you're a kid and you're sixteen and you leave home and go out in the world, you got to have confidence. Otherwise you're eaten up, especially in this town. You get chewed up and spit out. And I wasn't gonna do that."
Ledger says he keeps himself grounded with a little help from his friends. "I've got a best friend of mine, Trevor, he drove with me across Australia. I've known him since I was three. We haven't spent two months apart. He gives me confidence and he keeps me the same because I've never changed with him. We're like brothers. And so I can't change."

NATO Air Strike Kills 9 Afghan Civilians, Petraeus Says Sorry
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) stationed in Afghanistan has apologized after an air strike killed nine civilians, all of them children aged 12 and below.
NATO commander Gen. David Petraeus apologized for the latest blunder committed by foreign forces in Afghanistan, whose government continues to battle the Taliban. "These deaths should have never happened and I will personally apologize to President Karzai when he returns from his trip to London this week," Petraeus said according to a BBC report. Petraeus blamed the incident on a miscommunication regarding the location of the real targets of the attack, which occurred in Kunar province's Pech district. Local officials said the children were gathering firewood when the air strike occurred.
Afghan Presodent Hamid Karzai condemned the "merciless" killing of the innocent civilians and warned that the NATO will face "huge problems" if the civilian casualties continue to pile up. The recent NATO air strike came amid allegations by Afghan officials of another failed operation that killed 40 children in the same province.

As companies grow, problems never disappear but they do change. Very small companies need help in many areas during a time they can least afford regular onsite help. Larger companies have onsite help, but also have users in multiple locations, adding a new class of problems. PlumChoice wants to help the first group, and WorldExtend wants to help the second group.
PlumChoice offers several new twists on traditional online support help. First, all the 400 or so support technicians are based in the U.S., have various technical certifications, and are trained for three weeks. Training goes beyond the technical and into the human areas, so techs learn how to speak "non-geek" and avoid acronyms while helping customers.
Even better for consumers and small businesses, PlumChoice offers support on just about anything you can hook to your computer or network. Need help with digital cameras, smartphone synchronization, MP3 players, wireless network setup, or even training on Microsoft Office 2007? PlumChoice says they can help.
"There's been a disconnect in support," says PlumChoice founder and CEO Ted Werth. "People have been forced to become system integrators to figure out which parts of their systems are bad. We actually take a look at all the technology in the office, including PCs, routers, USB devices, Wi-Fi, and peripherals. The goal of our service is to keep everything working."
Technically, PlumChoice uses Citrix's GoToAssist program to control remote PCs during remote support sessions. The small (100k) client software download starts only when the customer initiates it, and will be deleted at the end of the session. PlumChoice techs always ask for permission to access computers and files so there are no privacy issues later, like have been reported with some onsite technical support companies. Remote control sessions are recorded and kept to answer any questions that may arise later.
Customers can pay per support session, buy blocks of support time in advance, or sign up systems on a monthly subscription basis ($24.95 per PC desktop per month). The monthly service also includes online backup and security software.
When PlumChoice techs realize a physical presence is needed (some computers really need to be kicked, at least metaphorically) they work with national service provider groups. To save time, PlumChoice sends the responding tech full customer and incident details, saving the customer time and aggravation by explaining everything again.
You may have already used PlumChoice but not known it. They do the remote support for Circuit City's FireDog service, as well as some other national retailers and service providers.
I talked about WorldExtend a couple of years ago, but now they're under new management, have refocused their product, and updated their software. To get the word from the field, I talked to one of their new resellers.
Dave Sobel, CEO of Evolve Technologies, describes his company as the "IT department for small businesses" in the Washington, D.C. area. "We're the one contact for our customers." Evolve Technologies has 16 employees and about 50 customers on regular monthly service contracts.
Sobel is working out the details to private label the WorldExtend service with the Evolve Technologies name before he rolls it out to customers. But he has clear ideas on which customers need the kind of help WorldExtend provides.
"The problem of remote user and work from home access is tough for small businesses. Deploying Microsoft Terminal Services or Citrix is tough and too expensive for smaller customers, especially when talking about five or six users," says Sobel.
WorldExtend's newly revamped IronDoor product provides a secure link for remote computer control and application virtualization. Need to take over a remote computer for support or training? Can do. Need to share applications like ACT! to remote and mobile users? Can do that, too. When Sobel's team needs to reach across the Internet and into a customer's network and open a command line administration session on a router, WorldExtend makes that possible.
Sobel appreciates that WorldExtend doesn't open ports in his customer's firewalls that could lead to a bit of network insecurity. Only one computer in the customer's network needs load the IronDoor Agent, so there's no reason to load down every computer with a license (and no reason to pay for licenses you may not use).
"We've been trying all sorts of kludgy things for remote application access," says Sobel. "Virtual XP boxes and trying to use Remote Desktop, but those don't scale well and certainly aren't elegant. And WorldExtend's hosted service model makes it easy to support customers with multiple locations."
There, now you have a nice balanced approach for support. Small companies that need outside support have a new service to consider. Larger companies with internal IT techs have a new option to extend the reach of those techs and handle some heretofore complicated and expensive application access issues. A little something for bigger companies and those that will be bigger one day.

Accused Witch Is Burned Alive
Nope, this is not a headline from Salem, Massachusetts, in 1692. People really did put to death a woman accused of being a witch in 2013. A town in Papua New Guinea, which is in the South Pacific Islands, publicly tortured and then murdered a 20-year-old woman by setting her on fire in a public square. The government and local police condemned this act of violence against women, but that didn't stop it from happening: the young mother had been accused of sorcery by the family of a six-year-old child who had recently died and townspeople took matters into their own hands. The details of how she was killed are grisly and gross and I won't recap them here. Alas, the embassy in Papua New Guinea has called for a closer look into gender-based violence and police are pursuing the as-many-as-50-suspects who had a hand in putting the young mom to death. This barbarity is frankly disgusting. [ABC News]

Mitchell Johnson strode like a colossus onto the WACA ground on Friday afternoon to a tumultuous greeting.
I don't often use that 't' word unless referring to Sachin Tendulkar (batting anywhere in India) or Lance Franklin (in the Champagne tent at Flemington) but that is the exalted company in which Australia's enigmatic Ashes hero now finds himself, in Australia at least.
Mitchell carefully orchestrated his entrance with a delay that smacked of being fashionably late - England were considering an appeal for ''timed out'' perhaps.
Having played my first state game in Perth way back in the late '70s and being a regular summer visitor ever since, I am fully aware of the particular parochial bent of the locals. I cannot imagine the braggadocio if they ever won State of Origin rugby league once, let alone eight times in a row.
There have been unofficial and official moves toward secession since the colonies federated more than 100 years ago and the recurring mining booms have resulted in Perth being one of the most expensive cities in the world.
Once rents were low, a schooner wasn't a luxury and you got change out of 10 for cup of coffee and a muffin. No longer.
The most isolated capital city on the globe (Jakarta is closer than Adelaide) has grown and matured, mainly thanks to the ''eastern staters'' who have migrated for work around the burgeoning mines.
Those eastern interlopers rarely achieve naturalisation. Twenty years in Scarborough, Cottesloe or Victoria Park is nowhere near long enough to be a genuine follower of the Dockers or the Eagles.
Never, ever debate daylight saving with them; they love having a three-hour time difference with the majority of the nation's populace. Much better to have a time zone closer to Mumbai than Melbourne. The eastern border is 1700 kilometres away and the customs gates from pre-federation are still standing, just in case.
The golden west has produced many a fine cricketer, once in the early 1980s having seven in the Test team against Pakistan. Yet they were not admitted to the Sheffield Shield competition until 1947 or allowed to host a Test match until 1970-71, and produced a mere scattering of Test players until the late 1970s.
NSW did not win a Shield match in Perth between 1965 and 1982, such were the differences and difficulties of travelling and then playing on the East Perth trampoline.
So many things are different about life and cricket way out west. The records of visiting international teams on the WACA are just as poor as interstate teams. The West Indies may be an exception through the 1980s but England have recorded just the single Test win, in 1978-9 when the cream of Australian cricket were playing for Kerry Packer.
Mitch Johnson hails from Townsville, central Queensland, and is now known locally as ''Wanneroo'' Mitch. He moved west following his heart rather than seeking the riches of the gold fields, the open-cut mines, the real estate market or the Western Warriors cricket team (formerly known as the Sandgropers, a much-loved mascot), and yet on Friday he may just as well have been born next to the Hussey brothers in the northern suburbs of Perth.
Johnson has been in career-best form with the ball and not far from that with the bat. He threatens to become, at least in part, the ''bowler of a generation'' that Dennis Lillee prematurely ordained him at age 19. Where not so many months ago his position in any Australian team, white ball or red, was a matter for constant public doubt and lengthy selectorial debate, now he is the second and fourth-best man picked.
The punter in the street has embraced the man who English supporters loved for ''bowling to the left and then bowling to the right''. He now bowls straight, fast and occasionally at left and right earholes. His day-one entrance came as Brad Haddin departed having been a part of yet another rescue act. He was tough, gritty, talented and very Australian; he too is an Ashes hero.
It was difficult to tell if those standing to applaud were seeing Haddin off or welcoming Wanneroo Mitch, the ''former Queenslander'', as The West Australian described him. Maybe they were doing a bit of both but I'm pretty sure the decibel level rose as Mitch jogged through the gate. The WACA members and outer crowd welcomed him as one of their own, and there is no greater accolade for an eastern stater in the golden west.

Listen via @PRITheWorld: How Volunteers Keep Watch, Ease Isolation of Immigrant Detainees
September 14, 2013
via Amy Bracken and Public Radio International's The World:
"It's looking unlikely that Congress will take up immigration reform this fall. But the push is still on to put deportations and immigrant detention centers under the microscope. And some of those leading this effort are immigrants themselves—who've spent time in detention centers—and are organizing to support those still inside." Read more here.

Here is a video of AJ Styles sharing his TNA Bound for Glory memories:
My favorite AJ Styles BFG moment was 2006 when he and Daniels lost the tag titles to LAX. It was a great match, with a great feud leading up to it and on the biggest stage that TNA had at that point. It really emphasized what tag team wrestling used to be about in TNA and the hope of what TNA could become. it was also really the last time TNA did AJ right and really highlighted him as a performer and not as a gimmick guy, whether it was AJ basically losing his smile and being mad about growing up in a trailer against Rhino, AJ becoming Christian, Angle and Flair's flunky, or Stings little buddy who needed his affirmation even though he was a multi-time champion before Sting was ever even around and doing anything relevant in TNA etc etc. That's one of the last few times I remember seeing the real AJ Styles. The AJ Styles that was Mr TNA and the one I miss probably more than anyone in wrestling over the last ten years and would like to see as an AJ Styles fan at some point again before he retires shortly.
man PIP going all sentimental on us, im about to cry!
I'm not ashamed to me an AJ Styles fan. Without him TNA would have sunk in the early years.
My favortite AJ Styles BFG moments are his tag team match with LAX at BFG 3006,his second Iron Man Match with Daniels,and his Lethal lockdown match with EV2.0 at BFG 2010.

Have Medical Questions? Ask a Doctor Online!
I am online and happy to help you with your question today.
While significant progress is being made along these lines, unfortunately, I have to agree with your doctor....it is unlikely that these non-interferon therapies will be available anytime soon.
The research is still in the very early stages and when a proven treatment, such as triple therapy is already available, the FDA sets a very high bar for anything new.
Is there anything else you would like to discuss at this point or have all your questions been answered to your satisfaction?
I hope this information was helpful for you. But I do work for tips so I want to make sure you are happy with me before rating me. If you have another question on this or a related issue feel free to fire away. You may also receive an email survey after our chat, if you don't feel that I have earned a "10" rating in all areas, please let me know what I can do to meet your expectations. Thanks in advance, Dr. Rick MD FACS
A few of the national support groups seem to have gotten some of their information wrong. First they told me I HAD to get a biopsy, and then that the new therapy should be on the market in 2 or 3 years. I don't remember which ones I called but somehow they should be better informed.
Triple therapy also scares me - I have had major depression in the past, but it was treatment resistant. I have ulcerative colitis (auto-immune), hypothyroid, migraines, fibromyalgia...As long as interferon and ribovarin are involved, I am afraid of it. At 59, I'd feel like I'm giving up a year of my life. I am not really sure if these things disqualify me from triple therapy, but I'm a big believer in getting what you expect, and what I expect is that triple therapy will be hell.
When you say "anytime soon" do you mean, maybe in 20 years? Or are you saying not in the next year or two? What do you think of participating in clinical trials? I understand that I may not be accepted because of my other issues. And I would certainly speak with my doctor first, but I would appreciate your input.
Do you know of someone in Southern California? Flying to Texas for an appointment isn't feasible at this time.
Yes, I did know that the one labeled "Excellent" is the most fun to push! Since you have given me such good information, I will have fun.

The listed
The office landlord bought 66 St George's Terrace from AMP's Property Income Fund in a move that lifts its overall exposure to the Perth market to about 7 per cent.
Fund manager Toby Phelps said the group was not concerned about the potential impact on the city's office market of a slowdown in commodity prices.
He said that "to some extent a cooling is not such a bad thing" if it meant that the construction of new office towers went on hold.
The purchase is forecast to generate additional earnings of 0.4¢ per unit in fiscal 2013
The acquisition will be funded from existing debt facilities and gearing will rise to 25.5 per cent. The fund has more firepower as it can gear up to 35 per cent and stay in its target range.
Mr Phelps said the fund had capitalised on the strength of its balance sheet and low gearing levels, which meant it was well placed to acquire assets at what it saw as an opportune time in the cycle.
The A-grade office building is in the heart of Perth's central business district and was bought on an initial yield of 8.1 per cent, after acquisition costs, in a deal brokered by Colliers International.
The 11,447 square metre building is currently let at a low average rent of $550 per square metre, and has a 1.8-year weighted average lease expiry. The short lease expiry profile should allow the fund to capture the benefit of rents rising by 15 per cent to match market levels.
There is only one resources firm as a tenant and the office fund is hoping to capitalise on short-term rental growth from Perth's low vacancy levels and strong tenant demand.

Yes, often academic writers will start a paper with a quote that pertains to the subject they are discussing. It is a great way to get your readers attention. :-)
I dont know of any rules that preclude it- it should be directly related to your paper though.
I would think that would be an excellent start.
However the rest of your paper would have to be related or relevant to the quote.
