HI Tom
No Tom, they had to report to a central local place for the Musters, much
like our elections these days.
Here is a typical order placed in the Sydney Gazette regarding Musters. This
one was placed in the Gazette on December 11 1803.
The Prisoners at public labour and victualled by the Crown, will be careful
to attend Muster at the places they are stationed at 7 O'clock on Tuesday
morning the 27th instant, when the musters will be taken as follows:
Sydney and its districts; at Government House
Parramatta and its districts: at the Court House
Castle Hill; at the Superintendents
Hawkesbury: at the Green Hills.
Officers having Stockmen or domestic servants victualled from the stores, to
send lists to the Governor's Secretary on or before Saturday the 24th
To prisoners allotted to individuals and those who are indulged with
permission to get their own livelihood are to attend Muster, and get their
last years certificates cancelled and renewed, at 7 O'clock on Wednesday
morning, the 28th instant, at the above places, where they receptively live;
Those neglecting to appear will be put to public labour in the gaol gang.
Officers etc having stockmen or domestic servants of the above description,
to send their names to the Governor's Secretary as above.
Free people of all descriptions, excepting the Civil, Military and Settlers
to attend Musters at the respective places on Thursday the 19th instant at 7
O'clock in the morning.
All women and children excepting officer wives and children, to attend at
the respective places on Friday the 30th instant.
Owners of vessels and docked boats to give a list of the people in their
employ (present or absent) to the Secretary's Office, on or before Saturday,
the 24th instant.

G'day Lesley,
Would you, or a Lister know if the Census/Muster details were collected by
the constables in different areas, and would that explain why I can't find
mention of one particular bloke who was a constable at the time?

Then, using the database that you've created, you can use RefWorks to help you automatically format your MS-Word documents in a proscribed style format. If you're familiar with EndNote, ProCite or Reference Manager, this is kind of like a web-based version, so you can access it from anywhere, as long as you can get to the internet. It is provided free to all U of Illinois students, faculty, and staff by the University Library and CITES.
To create an account, learn how to use RefWorks, or to find out how to export references from our various literature databases (Compendex, PubMed, CAB Abstracts, Web of Science, Google Scholar, etc.), please visit our RefWorks Support site. Note: RefWorks training sessions and tutorials are available. Check the Support Site for details.
Many researchers "grew up" using EndNote, and it's still a fine product. There are several differences between EndNote and RefWorks you will want to consider including:
The University of Illinois Library maintains an Introduction to EndNote LibGuide.
CITES Technology Training offers several EndNote classes for students and staff. Students should consult the Student Technology Training site for availability, and faculty and staff should consult the FAST3 site.
" Scholarly Communication" is a U of Illinois resource to help you learn how you can make your articles more accessible to researchers worldwide -- for if they're more accessible, they'll be read, used, and cited more readily. Additionally, this site will help you become more knowledgeable about scholarly communication issues such as copyright, author rights, the benefits of open access publishing, why journals cost so much, and more.
One way to make your articles more accessible is to put a copy of your article in IDEALS - Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship - a digital archive for the research and scholarship of faculty, staff, and students.

Save the children, Rudd urged
THE Rudd government should appoint a minister with specific responsibility for children and youth, and a federal children and youth ombudsman in order to overcome Australia's abuses of the United Nations Convention of the Rights of the Child, a former senior judge said last night.
Alastair Nicholson also called for a bill of rights, with specific provisions protecting children, coupled with the introduction into law of the UN convention.
"We have seen over the 11 years of the Howard government a progressive trampling over the rights of all of us, including the rights of children and youth," the former chief justice of the Family Court said in the 21st Lionel Murphy Memorial Lecture in Parliament House, Sydney.
He offered as examples of breaches of the convention the long detention of the children of asylum seekers, mandatory sentencing laws in the Northern Territory and Western Australia, the federal intervention in the Northern Territory, anti-terrorist laws, the closure of the electoral roll on the day that writs were issued, and curfews and restraining orders in some states.
The ombudsman would have powers to inquire into the activities of departments, prisons, the armed forces, holders of TV and radio licences, internet service providers, the alcohol and tobacco industries, advertisers and commercial institutions whose activities impinge upon children.
Mr Nicholson accused the Howard Government of intervening in the Territory "without regard to the interests of the children concerned but with a view to the forthcoming election".
He suggested the new government start with a national summit on children and youth, from which a plan of action could be developed, with a taskforce.

The Black Keys [1] rise to No. 1 on the weekly Hot Tours ranking with more than $2 million in box office grosses reported from three venues in California during its fall trek through western U.S. markets. The first date in this week's tally was an October 2 concert with a sellout crowd of 4,965 at Santa Barbara Bowl, an outdoor amphitheater located north of Los Angeles. Two performances followed at L.A.'s Staples Center with 24,821 combined fans in attendance on October 5 and 6 generating ticket sales of $1.2 million. The band¹s final stop in California on the fall tour was in Anaheim on October 8 with 10,518 in attendance at the Honda Center. Touring in support of the album "El Camino," released last December, the Grammy-winning rock duo has been on the road since January headlining arenas and festivals in North America and Europe. On October 21, the band kicks off a stretch of performances in Australia and New Zealand followed by dates in Europe through mid-December. Two concerts are booked at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas to close out the year on December 30 and 31.
Country headliners round out the Top 5 on the Hot Tours recap with ticket sales reported for Jason Aldean [2], Eric Church [3], Zac Brown Band [4] and Brad Paisley [5]. Aldean's second place ranking among the 10 top-grossing tours of the week is based on reported revenue from three late-September amphitheater dates in California Sleep Train Amphitheatre in the Sacramento area on September 27, Shoreline Amphitheatre near San Francisco on September 28 and Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in the Southern California city of Irvine on September 29. With a box office gross of $1.9 million from 53,286 sold tickets, all three shows were sellouts.
Eric Church takes the No. 3 slot in the rankings with $1.6 million in grosses from five venues beginning with two sold out shows at Chattanooga's Tivoli Theatre on Oct. 8 and 9. Four consecutive arena dates followed beginning on October 11 with concerts in Green Bay and Milwaukee, Wis., Indianapolis and Louisville.
Ranking fourth is the Zac Brown Band with $1.4 million in ticket sales from two concerts a September 7 shed date at Toronto's Molson Canadian Amphitheatre and a stadium event on Sept. 28 in Columbus, Ohio at Crew Stadium. Paisley lands at No. 5 with a gross of $1.2 million from arena performances on October 5 and 6 at Nationwide Arena, also located in Columbus, and Giant Center in Hershey, Pa.

The Maroon Bells Wilderness Area is not owned by the federal government. It is managed by the federal government. If they can't manage it at the present time, there are other options besides obeying this closure and being good boys and girls and doing what we are told. Who gave them this right?
I'm not suggesting we back up my old friend JW's dump truck to the chain and rip it out, like may have happened in the '60s.
What if a biker has an accident or needs to use a cell phone and can't call Mountain Rescue. Horrors.
If it's okay to have limited use, let's expand the limited use and allow the buses to go up and use the turn around, truck up and maintain port-a-potties (maybe we can get some of those cute pink ones they use for Komen events).
We've been going to the Bells after 5 p.m. without Forest Service involvement since they began restricted traffic there.
We have many loyal tourists and friends that look forward to seeing the Maroon Bells in it's autumn splendor. There are federal workers who are working without pay. We can hire them temporarily from the Aspen and PitCo chamber coffers, or ask for volunteers from the community. I'll volunteer. Who else is in?
There is no conflict. It's a win-win.

PERS portfolio gained 12.4 percent in past fiscal year
July 18, 2013
Nevada's Public Employees Retirement System saw a double-digit percentage gain in value during the last fiscal year.
The 12.4 percent return on investment amounts to $2.9 billion, bringing the system's total assets to $28.7 billion.
PERS Executive Director Dana Bilyeu tells the Las Vegas Review-Journal (http://bit.ly/14b2CPO) that the results exceeded a goal of 8 percent gains.
The 2013 return followed a 2.9 percent gain in 2012, a record 21 percent gain in 2011 and a 10.8 percent return in 2010.
Bilyeu says the fund's annualized return for the last 29 years is 9.3 percent, 1.3 percentage points above performance targets.
An update on the system's long-term unfunded liability will be reported in November.

The West has gotten weaker. At least on paper, it seems that way. Amare and Boozer fled the West, along with a slew of lesser talents. A new championship contender has emerged in the East. The Lakers still have to be the favorites to win it all, but overall, I do believe there will be more parity between the conferences.
We'll use the same format: Vegas line and my prediction for over/under.
- Dallas (49.5 wins) - Under. I'm trying to figure out if it's wiser to overpay Erick Dampier or to depend on Tyson Chandler for heavy minutes, or to re-sign Brandon Haywood to a long-term deal. Any way you slice it, Dallas is getting older. Still a playoff team, but as a 7th or 8th seed, probably.
- Denver (43.5 wins) - Under. Melo won't last the season in Denver and the Nuggets aren't going to get a return that helps them right now unless they get Iguodala, which doesn't look likely.
- Golden State (30.5 wins) - Barely over. Curry is a stud. Finding a way to stop Monta' Ellis from taking 25+ shots/game would be a step in the right direction. I like their rebounding with Lee and Biedrins starting up front. Lee's non-existent defense won't be an issue out there either.
- Houston (48.5 wins) - Under. I like Scola, the rest of the team...eh. Yao's return is completely uninspiring, as is Aaron Brooks as your starting "point" guard. I suppose they could surprise if Kevin Martin and Yao can stay healthy, but what are the odds of that?
- LA Clippers (36.5 wins) - Over seems like a pretty easy bet, if they can stay healthy. The only problem is Baron Davis' propensity to submarine his own team. I'll stick with over.
- LA Lakers (56.5 wins) - Over. Tough call because the Lakers are probably going to slide into that "the regular season doesn't matter," mindset for the first half of the season. I'm saying over because I think they'll realize home court is important in time to make a late push toward 60 games.
- Memphis (38.5 wins) - Under. Zach Randolph was a complete beast last season, but I'm not optimistic that he'll bring that type of effort in back-to-back seasons. In his favor is the fact this is a contract year for him, but I'm still skeptical.
- Minnesota (23.5 wins) - Under. Until I see the T-Wolves put Kevin Love on the floor for 35 minutes/game, I will have zero faith they will break 20 wins. It looks like they're planning to start Darko, Love and Beasley, which means they won't be able to defend the 3, 4 or 5 positions. Jonny Flynn isn't exactly a defensive wizard at the point, either. This team is a mess.
- New Orleans (41.5 wins) - Over. I have very little confidence in this one, but I'm going with the logic that Chris Paul will be healthy and motivated. If he's both of those things, a .500 record is pretty much their floor.
- Oklahoma City (51.5 wins) - Barely under. 50 wins, simply because they aren't going to sneak up on anyone this season. The sooner they realize playing Nenad is a mistake, the more minutes they get for Ibaka, the sooner they'll be able to hang with the powerhouses out West, but I don't see those changes happening early enough.
- Phoenix (41.5 wins) - Over. See New Orleans, sub in Nash for Paul and you've got about 45 wins and a playoff appearance.
- Portland (51.5 wins) - UNDER. Brandon Roy is joining Rudy Fernandez in making waves in Portland. No one knows what to expect from Greg Oden, if anything. LaMarcus Aldridge is still in love with long twos. Andre Miller won't have a big enough role for this team to win 50 games.
- Sacramento (27.5 wins) - Over. Much improved on the inside (Dalembert and Cousins represent an unbelievable upgrade over Hawes and Thompson), but relying on young guys with questionable intangibles for a large portion of their production.
- San Antonio (50.5 wins) - Under. Age has caught up to San Antonio. Still a playoff team, but probably not with home court advantage in the first round.
- Utah (49.5 wins) - Under. I like Sloan, love Deron Williams, but Al Jefferson is just not going to get it done out there. They're going to need a monster breakout season from Millsap to tread water up front. They're going to miss Korver more than Matthews.

The Lagoon 570 is one of the most successful and elegant bluewater cats of all time - a true VPLP "classic". The Lagoon 570 "BLUE STAR 31" is a cut above her peers. BLUE STAR is the moniker for one of the Caribbean's most experienced and demanding private captains. "31" is his yacht's hull number. The result is a yacht of unmistakable character. The best looking and most thoroughly speced Lagoon 570 on the water.
This yacht has the full complement of bluewater equipment as well a number of unique custom upgrades: the entire starboard hull is dedicated to the owner with large desk area midships and a bathroom with bathtub and seperate shower forward; bulkhead wheel with double seat; carbon bimini top; nomex floorboards to reduce weight and the list goes on. Her teak and alcantara interior is immaculate. The large galley-up features corian countertops.
A complete spec is attached. This large cat is continually maintained and upgraded at the highest level: new service batteries installed in June 2012; boat waxed and polished regularly. She is turn key - the next owner of this cat will be stepping into a yacht with no repairs or replacements needed.
This yacht has never chartered and is professionally maintained. Her owner has purchased another larger yacht and needs to move this one. At $795,000, she is a superb value and very competitive in size/class and among other Lagoon 570. Call us to compare. Her owner is motivated and will consider serious offers.

Here at Kirtland, we seem to be obsessed with "college." Go figure! Obviously, as an institute of higher learning, education is what we know and what we do. Gosh, we're not even halfway through the fall semester and already we are spending a lot of time thinking about next year!
In addition to spending time with your families researching college options, another great resource to help students make an informed college decision is a book called 21 'To Do' Lists for High School by Valerie Pierce and Cheryl Rilly. This book maps out the steps for students in 9th through 12th grades in order so you're ready to start college following high school graduation. And, of course, the internet has tons and tons of resources, tips and pointers.
Another big consideration is how to pay for college. College is EX-PEN-SIVE!!! Be smart. Plan ahead! If you're going to need financial aid, check out www.fafsa.gov and get started on your federal financial aid application. It requires a lot of information that takes some time to gather – check out the FAFSA website and start lining up your financial aid needs. Scholarships and grants are another way to offset the cost of college, so high school students should check with their counseling offices to find out what is available. There are a ton of scholarships out there, but you have to do some work to find out what's available and how to apply.
Remember, community colleges cost ONE-THIRD the amount of a 4-year college or university. It makes great sense to complete your first two years at Kirtland, save a ton of money, and transfer to a 4-year school to continue your education.
I know, I know! High school is a great time to enjoy life and hang with your friends. In fact, Kirtland is looking forward to hosting a tailgate event at Houghton Lake High School's football game tonight. We'll be at HLHS with TV9&10 so if you're attending the game, stop by and grab some cool Kirtland prizes. Have fun in high school, but don't forget to think about your future, your plans and your goals and spend some time preparing for college. As we like to say at Kirtland, "Your future. It's closer than you think!"

Alcohol problems represent a classic example of a complex behavioral outcome that is likely influenced by many genes of small effect. A polygenic approach, which examines aggregate measured genetic effects, can have predictive power in cases where individual genes or genetic variants do not. In the current study, we first tested whether polygenic risk for alcohol problems—derived from genome-wide association estimates of an alcohol problems factor score from the age 18 assessment of the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC; n = 4304 individuals of European descent; 57% female)—predicted alcohol problems earlier in development (age 14) in an independent sample (FinnTwin12; n = 1162; 53% female). We then tested whether environmental factors (parental knowledge and peer deviance) moderated polygenic risk to predict alcohol problems in the FinnTwin12 sample. We found evidence for both polygenic association and for additive polygene-environment interaction. Higher polygenic scores predicted a greater number of alcohol problems (range of Pearson partial correlations 0.07–0.08, all
Alcohol consumption and related problems are classic examples of complex behavioral outcomes that likely involve many genes of small effect [
In contrast to the consistent evidence for the heritability of alcohol use and problems, no robust associations have been detected in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to date. This is the case, in part, because the small samples typically used in alcohol research are underpowered to detect the very modest individual effect sizes that are generally observed in GWAS of complex behavioral outcomes. Large meta- and mega-analyses pooling across many studies are needed to obtain robust results in the substance use area [
In the absence of success in identifying individual genes that account for a substantial proportion of the variance in alcohol outcomes, and lack of expectation that such genes will be found in the near future, polygenic approaches have emerged as one paradigm for examining aggregate measured genetic effects that can have predictive power when individual genes cannot [
In the current study, we adopted a polygenic approach to examine alcohol problems in adolescence. Adolescence represents an important developmental period for the initiation of alcohol use [

ALSPAC participants were genotyped from blood samples using the Illumina 550K custom chip (San Diego, CA, USA). Multi-dimensional scaling modeling seeded with HapMap Phase II release 22 reference populations was used to identify individuals of non-European descent.

We used partial Pearson correlations, controlling for sex, to test associations between the FinnTwin12 polygenic scores and alcohol problems. We used moderated multiple regression to test our gene-by-environment interaction hypotheses that parental knowledge and peer deviance would moderate the predictive association of polygenic scores with the age 14 alcohol problems measure. For these analyses, the parameters of interest were the statistical interactions between the environmental factors (parental knowledge and peer deviance) and the polygenic scores. The main effects of sex and the environmental factors were used as covariates in the relevant models. Parental knowledge, peer deviance, and polygenic scores were centered on their means prior to running moderation analyses to reduce co-linearity among predictor variables.

Boldfaced statistics indicate
Although the effect sizes for the polygenic score X environment interactions were small, the pattern of effects is consistent with previous findings from the twin literature. Multiple independent twin studies find that parenting and peer environmental factors moderate latent genetic influences for alcohol use and related outcomes such that genetic influences increase under conditions of low parental knowledge and high peer deviance [
In addition to these core analyses, we ran a series of supplementary analyses to examine the robustness of our effects after controlling for gene-environment correlation and after transforming our alcohol problems dependent variable to a logarithmic scale. Gene-environment correlation can produce spurious gene-environment interaction effects; likewise, interaction effects are known to be sensitive to scale. Accordingly, our supplementary analyses were intended to address concerns that our observed gene-environment interaction effects could be statistical artifacts.
Parental knowledge (top) and peer deviance (bottom) moderate polygenic risk to predict age 14 alcohol problems in FinnTwin12. Interactions are plotted as predicted values based on the moderated multiple regression equation for age 14 alcohol problems. Illustrative low and high values (±1 SD of mean) for the polygenic scores, parental knowledge, and peer deviance are shown. The predicted values for high parental knowledge and low peer deviance were out of bounds (negative values) and were set to zero—the lowest possible value for the alcohol problems measure. Error bars are equal to the standard deviation of the model residuals divided by the square root of the sample size. We note that high scores on the parental knowledge scale indicate low parental knowledge (
To control for gene-environment correlation in our parental knowledge analyses, we used residualized polygenic score and parental knowledge variables in our model. To calculate residualized variables, we regressed polygenic scores onto parental knowledge (and
To test whether our interaction effects could be attributed to the scale of the alcohol problems measure, we used a log-transformed version of the measure (
Although the causal relationships among the genetic and environmental variables examined here are unknown, we note that early findings from genetically-informed randomized prevention studies suggest that efforts aimed at reducing environmental risk factors for adolescent alcohol use and related behavior problems may be particularly effective for those who are genetically predisposed toward developing such problems. For example, adolescents with either the short/short or short/long genotype of
The polygenic analyses indicated significant gene-environment interaction effects with parental knowledge and peer deviance, and we used set-based analyses to probe whether the individual top SNPs contributing to our polygenic scores were themselves enriched for gene-environment interaction. We examined this question using the set of top SNPs (
Our empirical
Our results should be interpreted in the context of their limitations. First, the participants in our two samples were of European descent, the latter exclusively of Finnish descent, which may limit the generalizability of the present findings to samples from the same ancestral background. Second, although our association and moderation findings were in the expected direction, the effect sizes were quite small—often accounting for less than 1% of the variance. Although there is much enthusiasm for personalized medicine approaches [
Higher polygenic predispositions for alcohol problems (based on GWAS estimates from a population-based sample of young adults) predicted a higher number of adolescent alcohol problems in an independent, population-based sample. In addition, environmental factors in adolescence moderated these polygenic predispositions. Genetic predispositions were more important under conditions of low parental knowledge and high peer deviance. These gene-by-environment interactions, although small in magnitude, are consistent with previous findings from studies that show that environments low in social control or high in social opportunity permit the expression of genetic predispositions [

Dream Halloween Cruise: Carnival Dream Cruise Review by fllady61
Overall Member Rating
Dream Halloween Cruise
Destination: Western Caribbean
Embarkation: Port Canaveral (Orlando)
10/31/10, Happy Halloween, Today turned out to be quite interesting. Beside the fact that we had asked the steward to change the arrangement of the room, we had a good day. The seas were quiet. The sun was bright, and the day was relaxing. We discovered the ship to a degree. Found club 02, circle C, the arcade, found all the bars, and our way around the ship to the best we could. We basically did not do much. About 4 pm, we headed to our cabin to prepare for the Halloween dress up. I went as and injured TBR (Tampa bay rays) fan, and Art went as Joe Maddon. Kathryn went as a Skull Witch. Art and I did get into the contest, but did not get in the finals. That is ok. We at least got in the contest. AND we got a medal for making it that far., After the judging, we headed back the cabin and shed our costumes and headed back out to the casino for about an hour. Again, no luck. About midnight we went to bed.,
11/1/10, Today we are in Cozumel, We went into the little shoppers area, where we got a few little things like coffee, and some Mexican vanilla. We then headed back to the ship. We went to the Lido deck to eat lunch after taking our things back to the cabin. We collected our jewels from Diamonds International and Tanzanite International. Which was not much. Diamonds International was a charm for our bracelets. And Tanzanite was a pair of Tanzanite earrings., After eating, we went to the cabin for a quick nap. When we finally woke up, we got ready for dinner, then headed down to the main lobby to wait for the dining room to open. While there, a young lady named Vickie was singing at the piano entertainment area. She was a pleasure to listen to. There was a couple there who danced to almost every song she sang., We had a wonderful dinner with our lovely waiters of Anthony and Rannakdrn (Randy for short). And our bar waiter Hpyoie. His name was too hard to say so he just told us to call him H. H was from Ecuador., After dinner we spent about an hour in the casino, and still nothing. We went to the 8 More Seconds show which was a country western show and it was great. We then did our nightly round up to the Lido deck to get our nightly ice cream and french fries and burger. Then it was off to bed.,
11/2/10, Today is Belize. Our nerd port. And we call it that because of the tender to get to the port. The dream can not go in as far as the Glory did, so it was more like a 30 min ride on a tender that goes about 40 mile an hour or more and the boat sits on it's tail to get there. With my vertigo, we opted to stay on the ship because of this. We did not do much. Tuesday night, we went to the see the juggler, and he was great. He did some tricks that I had never seen before, and kept us on the edge of our seats and splitting our ribs with some of the things he would act out. To start the show, the CD pretended like he was having a problem with the microphone and had us basically rolling in the floor laughing. Kitty and I were laughing so hard we were crying., Again, we went after the show for our nightly routine of ice cream.,
11/3/10, Isla Roatan. We did go into this port because we had never been here before. Kathryn went on an excursion to the Rain Forest through Carnival. I would not have let her go if it would have been a private excursion., Art and I went to the shops in the port area. Which this port was built especially for Carnival cruise line, by Carnival. We got our charm, our free Tanzanite earrings, and at EFFY, we got a necklace, and for 10$ a matching pair of earrings. Since this shop was brought to the island by carnival, they offered a necklace at any EFFY store you go to and get a collection of the sets by visiting the EFFY stores. (btw, EFFY is a jewelry store.), Art and I headed back to the ship, in a light sprinkle. We took our stuff to the cabin, then headed up to lunch. After lunch we went to the cabin for a nap. About the time we got resting well, Kathryn came in and started telling us about her day. We then proceeded to go to get ready for dinner. After dinner, we went to the Dancing In the Streets show. It was wonderful. They did all different types of things including a short rendition of cats by Andrew Lloyd Weber., What made this week so special was the game that the FUN SHIP ENTERTAINMENT STAFF had going on. It was a little thing that made for a cute game for those who participated. A simple little putting your finger on your nose, and the last on to catch on got made fun of. We had a blast doing it all week with the staff., This weeks staff was awesome. Josh (Big Sexy), the Cruise Director, George (Baby Butch) the Assistant Cruise Director, and the rest of the team, Megan (squeaker), Greg (Gumby), Christian, & Leonnie. This group seemed to just make our cruise even more enjoyable.,
11/4/10, Costa Maya. We had said we were not going into town today, but we did. It did not change much since the last time we were there. A few more shops, Again, we got our charm, our Tanzanite earrings, and a few other little things. Kathryn wanted a specially made ring with her name on it, and I got me a new gown/house dress, and a blouse. Nothing much else was bought here. If you wanted tequila, it was the place to get it. So much more than 350 types of tequila sold in the warehouse there in the port shops. Did not really impress me, but I went in just to see the shop and see the worm in the tequila that you always hear about. And yes, they were there. The worm helps to purify the tequila. Some that are made in the lesser countries, or areas of the islands and are hand made, will have the worm in them. Those made in factories most likely will not., We stopped to take a few pictures, and then hung around for the Diamonds International drawing. Hoping of course we would win. But we did not., We headed back to the ship. We went and dropped our stuff off at the cabin, then went for lunch. Tonight was second formal night. At 2:30 we went to Club 02 to watch the CD put on his afternoon show. It was hilarious. After that, Art and I went back to the cabin, and fell asleep. We woke up about 7 pm. We skipped dinner and went to the Lido deck to eat. After eating, we went to the show which was Get Ready which was another wonderful performance by the song and dance team., After the show, we went for Ice cream again. Then headed back to the cabin for the night.,
11/5/10, Our last sea day. Boo Hoo. Hate to see the end of the day. Unfortunately, I woke with a migraine and the rocking of the ship due to rough waters and bad weather from TOMAS the tropical depression/storm, really made it bad for me. I finally did go try to eat about 10 am and got so sick. I went back to the cabin and slept till almost 3 pm. After that, I was feeling pretty well, We went and enjoyed the final meal in the dining room. I had shrimp cocktail x 2, prime rib and fried shrimps. What a meal., By the time dinner was over, we were well into the rough weather. Although the dream is a huge ship, and you could barley feel the ship the rest of the week, tonight, the ship was awful. We went to the Liar, Liar show, then stayed for Bingo, but did not play, and then stayed for the Legends show. It was really good. Especially when the CD got on stage as Dolly Parton and was acting silly. It made everyone laugh. But the show was awesome., I got my picture taken with Vickie, the Piano singer, and with Aubrey the young lady that helped us so on the first day today. Got a ton of pictures of the crew and Kathryn with them., We had finished our packing and put our bags out to be picked up. We so did not want to do that. We were having a wonderful time. It could have one on forever and we would not have cared., Off to bed about midnight after spending about 15 - 20 min talking to Josh, we were just too tired to do anything else. However, when I got to the cabin, I could not sleep. Don't know why, but I just could not sleep, Finally got to sleep about 130 - 2 am.,
11/6/10, Woke at 4 am, and went back to sleep till 630 am when I thought it was after 8 am. I got up and showered and got dressed. We then proceeded to head to the Encore lounge where we would wait for our number to be called to disembark., We were off the ship with ease. About 20 min total for customs and luggage pickup, NOT IN THAT ORDER. We were in our car and headed out of the port by 930. We stopped for a bathroom break and for coffee on the way home as I had not had any yet this morning., We got home slowly because of the wind on the road, we drove slower than usual. We arrived home about noon. Unloaded the car, then got caught up on face book and mail., And that was our vacation. So sad it is over, but sort of glad to be reconnected to the world, Less

Cabin review: 4G8361 Interior
our cabin seemed small to start, but the beds were together and it left little space. after having the cabin steward seperate them, it made the cabin look so much bigger and more room. there were problems with the carpet. there were big gouges taken out of it. We could hear everything above us, the rowdy kids in the cabin above us, the people snoring in one cabin, and other gastly sounds on the other side. Could hear people arguing two to three cabin doors down. Seems to me like Carnival forgot to put the sound proof insulation in this ship. Hope they fix that problem on the Magic and Breeze. never had this problem on any other ship till now. Walkways are still too narrow for someone in a wheelchair especially if luggage, or house keeping carts are in the hallways.Read All Interior (4G) Reviews >>

BARKSDALE AIR FORCE BASE, La. — When Maj. Harry Schmidt radioed that he was under attack from ground fire in Afghanistan last April, there was not enough time for allied military officials to determine whether ground forces were hostile or friendly, a U.S. Air Force colonel said Wednesday.
In the second day of a military hearing to determine whether Schmidt and another Illinois Air National Guard pilot, Maj. William Umbach, should be court-martialed for their role in a friendly fire incident that killed four Canadian soldiers and wounded eight others, Col. Lawrence Stutzriem said the pilots were "in complete control" of "an extremely unusual situation."

That was enough for me to trigger the warnings which prompted the compat_semaphore changes. You'll get a verbose lock trace whenever something outside of the -RT kernel's expecations happens. Ingo

HE HAS been beaten just once in his career and is unbeaten on straight tracks, he has recorded sizzling winning times and he is guaranteed to turn heads before Saturday's group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes, but he's not Sepoy.
His name is Bear Hero, the Champion Griffin of Hong Kong and the potential thorn in Sepoy's side as Australia's glamour colt chases his fourth group 1 win this weekend.
It's fair to say that Hong Kong raiders have not fared well this spring, with the John Moore-trained Silver Grecian and Mighty High both withdrawn from the spring carnival on the weekend after two group 1 failures each. Both are expected to depart for Hong Kong by the end of the week.
But trainer David Ferraris and travelling foreman Chris McMullen are hopeful that the brilliant Bear Hero can improve on that record for Hong Kong this weekend despite the horse's low-key preparation.
''It's a big step up from Griffins to a race like this but he has been running outstanding times in Hong Kong and all the horses that he has been beating have gone on. The form is very strong,'' said McMullen.
The foreman is not exaggerating when he describes Bear Hero's winning times as brilliant. When winning over 1000 metres in June this year Bear Hero became the first Griffin - a new season unraced two or three-year-old - to beat older horses in Hong Kong in seven years, and recorded the fifth fastest time for the 1000 metres at Sha Tin.
Ferraris elected to set Bear Hero for the Coolmore Stud Stakes after that win in order to keep the colt against his own age group, an advantange three-year-olds are not afforded in Hong Kong where they are expected to compete against older horses.
Ferraris hopes that a group 1 win or placing on Saturday will enhance Bear Hero's stallion potential as an Australian-bred son of the late General Nediym. Bred by Baramul Stud in New South Wales, Bear Hero sold for $140,000 at the 2010 Magic Millions Sale on the Gold Coast by bloodstock agent John Hutchinson for clients of the Ferraris stable.
McMullen is happy with how Bear Hero has progressed since arriving in Melbourne in late September, and a strong win in a recent Flemington jump out proved the three-year-old is ready for his Australian debut.
But nobody in the Ferraris camp wants to underestimate Sepoy and McMullen said the presence of the in-form colt had certainly tempered excitement in advance of Saturday's race.
''We're happy with him, but it's very hard to be confident with Sepoy in the race. He's just gone into the top-50 horses in the world and his form is excellent. A horse the class of Sepoy will always be very hard to beat,'' he said.

Thieves steal couple's Christmas decorations - twice
An Indiana family says it will make the best of the holiday season, despite a cruel crime.
"That's ol' Santa Claus' Workshop," said 73-year-old James Guffey, pointing to a giant inflatable Christmas decoration in his front yard.
That's why Guffey and his wife Rachel spent weeks in their front yard on Lawrence Avenue, creating their own Christmas magic.
"We have done it so many years and we have enjoyed it," explained Rachel Guffey.
"I like to see little kids happy," said James, starting to choke up.
This year, though, someone stole part of the Guffey's Christmas joy by taking several of their giant inflatable Christmas decorations, not just once, but twice this past week.
"It's not right. It's not...to be treated like this," cried James, wiping the tears from his face.
"It just breaks my heart. I felt so sorry for him Sunday morning," Rachel added, starting to tear up herself.
"You don't go out in a man's yard and steal that much stuff and come back two nights later to do the same thing," said James.
But that's exactly what someone did.
The Guffeys said they know exactly who is responsible for stealing their Christmas decorations, or at least what that person looks like. That's because they have hidden security cameras all around their house that captured it on video.
The footage showed a person come into the Guffey's yard, cut the ropes holding the decorations in place, deflate them and haul them away. Two nights later, the Guffeys believe the same person was on the video again, coming back and stealing more - and it was all captured on camera.
"If he walked up here right now, I'd do my best to break his jaw. You want me to tell you the truth don't you? That's the way I feel," said James.
"I'd loved to have a board with nails in it and plopped him right in the head and then call the police and said, 'Now you can shows what you was doing'," said Rachel.
The Guffeys say they won't let anyone take all their Christmas Joy. They're putting up more decorations.
"I gotta put a manger scene up. I've got some snowmen. I got a Santa Claus 20-foot high I'm gonna put up. I got a snow man 20-foot high I'm gonna put up," explained James.
"It's okay. If he wants to go on and do it, we will go ahead and do it," said Rachel.
Suggested Links
"He ain't gonna run me out of it, no," said James of the person who took his family's decorations.
That's because the Guffeys said they believe even if the video and the law can't get them justice, there's another kind waiting.
"God will take care of him," said James.

Fence Removed
The fence blocking access from Webster Avenue to Tuck Mall and the rest of campus has been scaled back. Specifically, the portion between Zeta Psi and Alpha Xi Delta has been removed. The removal restores a shortcut to campus, allowing students living on frat row to forgo the long walk down Webster Avenue.

A source (unconfirmed, admittedly) tells me that the alumni corporations of Beta and Zete wrote a joint letter to the College threatening a mega-lawsuit if the fence remained up. I'm trying to get my hands on the letter.

TOP STORY >> Air base heading to rodeo with high hopes
Leader editor-in-chief
Little Rock Air Force Base, which has the largest C-130 fleet in the world, is sending four planes and some 140 airmen to the air rodeo competition at McChord Air Force Base in Washington state.
These are the men and women who fly C-130s, deliver military personnel and supplies around the world on short notice, and they will compete for the title of best airlifters in the world.
Air Mobility Commands premier mobility competition will take place Saturday through Friday, July 24.
Col. Gregory S. Otey, commander of the 19th Airlift Wing at Little Rock Air Force Base, and Col. Charles K. Hyde, commander of the 314th Airlift Wing, will lead their teams to McChord on Friday.
Among those going on the trip are Cabot Mayor Eddie Joe Williams, former Jacksonville Mayor Tommy Swaim, Larry Bernake of Arkansas Federal Credit Union and Larry Wilson of First Arkansas Bank and Trust.
The three surviving members of the original nine Doolittle Raiders, who were the first to bomb a Japanese island during the Second World War, will be the special guests of Gen. Arthur J. Lichte, the commander of Air Mobility Command.
The air rodeo, held every two years, tests the mobility of C-130 crews. The competition features more than 40 aircraft participating in airdrops, aerial refueling and other aerial events.
Additional events will showcase the wide-ranging capabilities of military security forces and aerial port, maintenance and aeromedical-evacuation personnel.
More than 100 teams and 2,500 people from the Air Force, Air Force Reserve and Air National Guard, as well as allies from 25 nations, are expected to participate.
The last biennial competition took place in July 2007 at McChord AFB.
The return on investment from rodeo is huge because it tests, improves and impacts the entire worldwide mobility machine, Otey said. This one week allows us to measure our combat airlift skills against the best of the best mobility aircrews from around the world.
Airlift rodeo allows all of us to share tactics, techniques and procedures and increases the velocity and precision of combat airlift. That increase in efficiency in combat airlift velocity and precision directly affects our war-fighters on the front lines, Otey said.
Hyde, who is going to his first rodeo, is also enthusiastic about the upcoming competition. He said the rodeo tests the whole system of air mobility. It challenges everybody to be better and work together better. We learn from each other.
Hydes grandfather built C-130s in the 1960s at the Lockheed assembly plant in Marietta, Ga., where he grew up. He said his grandfather probably helped build many of the planes at Little Rock Air Force Base.
Hyde is a veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan and Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Otey, a graduate of the Virginia Military Institute, was a weapons officer at the C-130 Weapons School at the air base from 1995 through 1997.
Hyde, who is an Air Force Academy graduate, trained here and was a flight instructor in 1992.
The 314th Airlift Wing trains C-130 crews for the Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard and several allied nations. The wing is part of the Education and Training Command.
The 19th Airlift Wing is the premier combat airlift unit and reports to Air Mobility Command.
Rodeo showcases AMCs best of the best and allows us to train and learn through spirited competition, said Maj. Gen. Brooks Bash, AMC director of operations and Rodeo 2009 commander.
Not only does this world-class competition train mobility forces for the fight, it provides a forum for airmen and our international partners to share the best of tactics and techniques, Brooks added.
According to the Air Force, an important long-term benefit of this event is increased cooperation between air mobility forces among participating nations. Collectively, the ultimate goal of the competition is to develop and improve techniques and procedures that enhance air mobility operations.
According to AMC officials, the command provides the nation global mobility combined with rapid response.
Air Mobility Command not only plays a crucial role in Iraq and Afghanistan through its airlift, tanker and aeromedical-evacuation capabilities but also provides humanitarian support around the world. Its extensive daily flying operations average an aircraft takeoff every 90 seconds.
Capt. Allison Stephens of Little Rock Air Force Base public affairs contributed to this report.

In a letter to the Met Police, Gordon Brown said he was "ready to assist" the police probe and had asked Labour MPs, staff and peers to "co-operate fully".
They are investigating gifts to Labour of more than £650,000 which businessman David Abrahams made using proxy donors.
Number 10 has played down reports of a rift between the PM and Labour's deputy leader Harriet Harman over the affair.
'Running commentary'
Mr Brown has insisted that he knew nothing about the funding arrangement with Mr Abrahams.
The prime minister has said all the money paid out by Mr Abrahams will be returned.
In his letter to Met temporary commander Nigel Mawer, Mr Brown said that the manner in which the donations had been made was "unacceptable" and that he would urge Labour Party staff and representatives to be "pro-active" in assisting the police.
He had asked Labour staff, MPs and peers to "co-operate fully in providing relevant information", he added.
Mr Abrahams has said he did not know he was breaking any rules when he made the donations by proxy, claiming that he kept them secret to avoid publicity.
In a statement, Mr Abrahams said he always had discussed the manner of my donations with party officials and "it was never suggested to me that I was doing anything wrong".
"I'm not going to discuss particular meetings with particular individuals save to confirm (Labour's chief fundraiser) Jon Mendelsohn discussed this particular method of donating money with me in April," he said
"I received thank you letters from the Labour Party following donations I had made."
Possible donor
But Mr Mendelsohn denied that he met Abrahams to discuss making donations to the party via intermediaries.
His lawyer said this was "absolutely untrue", adding that the two men did meet at a Jewish event and discussed what he called a "specific charity project to enable Muslims to visit Israel".
Labour's general secretary Peter Watt has already resigned, saying he knew about Mr Abrahams's funding arrangement, but did not think they had broken the rules.
Mr Mendelsohn has said Mr Watt told him about the situation last month but had been unhappy about it and had contacted Mr Abrahams with the intention of putting his donations on a proper footing.
Earlier, Downing Street played down a reported rift between Gordon Brown and Harriet Harman over the affair, following revelations about the way Ms Harman's successful campaign for Labour's deputy leadership was funded.
Her team accepted £5,000 from a donor linked to businessman David Abrahams.
Ms Harman earlier appeared to implicate Mr Brown in the affair by revealing his former leadership campaign manager, Chris Leslie, had suggested one of Mr Abrahams's intermediaries, Janet Kidd, as a possible donor.
Asked earlier if she had "dropped Gordon Brown in it," she replied: "No, absolutely not."
Raise money
In a separate development, the Electoral Commission has asked Ms Harman to explain how she paid for her campaign after BBC Newsnight revealed substantial loans were taken out.
Any such loan should be reported to the Electoral Commission within 30 days. Only one loan, an overdraft facility for £10,000 taken out in October last year has so far been reported.
A statement made on behalf Ms Harman said that she subsequently took out a £40,000 extension to her and her husband's mortgage with the Halifax to fund the campaign.
"The Harriet Harman campaign was under the impression that she did not need to register her mortgage with either the Electoral Commission or the Register of Members' Interests," the statement said.

So I'm finally thinking about getting my own PC, but since I don't know much about them I figured I would ask you guys for recommendations. But first, a few stipulations.
1. I'm not building it myself. It's just not happening. 2. It's got to be a laptop. It's my own personal computer that I'll probably take to college with me in two years, so no desktops. 3. I don't have a specific price range, but I'm not about to shell out a couple thousand dollars. 4. I want it be a PC that can play games, not a gaming PC.
More on that last point, I want it to be able to run any modern game smoothly but not necessarily with the highest possible settings. 60fps/720p are musts, but I can sacrifice 1080p if it's going to add a lot to the price. It would be preferable though.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Until next time,

Members Present: Andy Lopez, Cassie McMahon, Pete Wyckoff, LeAnn Dean,
Sara Haugen, Lowell Rasmussen, Roger Wareham, Joe Basel,
Arne Kildegaard, Bryan Herrmann, Dan Moore, Pareena Lawrence,
Sharon VanEps, Ken Hodgson
Guests: Pam Solvie, Henry Fulda, TJ Ross, Gary Strei, Sandy Olson-Loy
(In these minutes: Capital Requests and Budget)
Capital Requests
Lowell distributed materials regarding UMM 2008, 2010 and 2012 capital requests. He noted that last year President Bruininks pulled the Library out of the plan and for the first time in many years, UMM had nothing on the bonding bill. The expectation is that we will be rewarded for this sometime down the road. The 2008 request will include the renovation of Blakely Hall, Food Service, and Community Services. We also need to improve the infrastructure for some of our summer programs. The food service design has changed from when it was originally built. It is currently twice the size it needs to be. The actual construction costs for the Library are higher if we do floor by floor. He recommends moving the Library to a temporary location, perhaps the lower level of Food Service during the Library renovation. Dan Moore made a motion to endorse the requests in principle and to move ahead with the planning process. Second by Bryan Herrmann. Arne asked who will occupy Community Services. Andy said External Relations and Admissions. Lowell added that floor plan for the current occupants is very inefficient. A pre-design will be brought back to this committee. Andy noted that we are simply authorizing Lowell to submit the requests. Arne said he is not clear about the Community Service renovation. Pete added that there has not been adequate discussion and he would abstain. Andy asked members to vote. Motion passes (there were several abstentions).
Andy read an e-mail he received from Gary Strei about the current budget situation.

We love trying new products – especially when they're all natural and homeopathic based!
When MittiHeal sent the wound care powder of Calendula, Arnica Montana, Mint & Sandalwood for us to try – it was just so timely that my son had a seeping boo-boo that was looking infected.
Yep! It was gross ~ Lucky us!!
MittiHeal is a pleasant smelling powder & comes in a package. No secrets here – I love the aroma! After I opened it, I found an clean empty container to store the extra in, as a little bit goes a long way!
Applying it was easy – I just sprinkled a small amount onto the wound & patted it in. All that pus held it in there, but I could've moistened the area if needed.
Now to get healing!!
Intrigued? Looking forward to more gross wound pictures!?! Yes! Tomorrow I'll fast forward time & show you the healing progress AND….
We are going to have a MittiHeal Giveaway!!! Be sure to visit tomorrow to find out how to enter!! This is a great product to have in your natural healing medicine chest!

After spending 38 hours last semester painting my own stretch portrait of Lillian Gracey, I've decided the next step is the costume. I will be attending MNSSHP with my family (my fiance will be attending as the Man on the Powder Keg) and today I happened upon a BEAUTIFUL brocade that I feel might be appropriate for the skirt. Now, I was planning on making this dress as period specific as possible with a few additions that aren't featured in the portrait - little things like piping between the bodice and skirt, fully line the capelet, things to make this a finished garment instead of a costumey costume. I have seen some fantastic versions of the costume using printed floral fabric on the skirt to give it a finished look, and while the flowers can be hand painted well, I thought that this brocade could be a really nice, professional-esque substitute:
The flower bunches are evenly spaced like the ones in the painting with a primarily pink center surrounded by minty leaves. The satin is a muted white (not super bright, good for photos - not to mention sitting all over a theme park in WHITE white seemed a little dangerous for something I'm going to want to treasure). I have tried all sorts of paint and ink on varieties of fabric, but noting really gave me the polished, period garment look I was going for. Fellow fanatics, will this make an acceptable substitute? I justify this choice by thinking of the beautiful textures and patterns used for the Princesses not seen in the original animation - a pretty VERSION, unique to the walk-around character.
Thanks for the feedback!
