I think one of the things I took away from the press conference today the most, was the ability to broadcast what you're currently playing to friends and the ability for your friends to help you out in a tight spot. This, to me, is a giant leap forward in technology not to mention the whole Gaikai service. I might never have to deal with another GameStop for as long as I live if Gaikai pans out to be everything I think it will (something similar to Netflix/Hulu). This could be the thing that keeps developers making money and keeping the Video Game Industry as a whole, alive and well. I wonder with the implementation of this if Sony will raise the cap on the friend's list from 100 to something a bit higher. I certainly hope so!
In other news, I loved the live stream that happened today on IGN. However, there's some things that bothered me. For starters, the insane skype calls were way out of line. There was parts of several interviews I couldn't even hear because of the flood of incoming calls to GameOverGreggy's Skype client. I feel like it had something to do with the rampant fanboyism that was going on throughout the entire internet. When IGN crashed (for me at least), I hopped over to twitch to catch the rest of Sony's press release and the chat log was even worse. What happened to us as a community? Instead of making everything a competition, we should be banding together as a whole. I could go on for days about it, but I'm not going to step on that soapbox for now. Suffice it to say, no matter which console you choose to call your own, you're still a gamer at heart. Take joy that there's others like you instead of throwing stones because they chose a different brand.

UConn advances to final 8 with OT win over New Mexico
STORRS, Conn. – Nicholas Zuniga picked the right time to score the first goal of his collegiate career as the freshman buried the game-winning goal 4:18 into the second overtime to lead UConn past New Mexico, 2-1, in the NCAA Third Round held at Morrone Stadium in front of 4,315 fans on Sunday afternoon.
UConn improved to 17-3-1 while New Mexico dropped to 17-4-1.
Zuniga took a through ball from Carlos Alvarez at the top of the box and beat UNM keeper Victor Rodriguez into the lower left corner to give UConn the 2-1 edge in one of the more open contests this season.
"At the moment, what was going through my mind was to just put it in the goal because I had enough opportunities that game, I'm just glad I got that one," said Zuniga. "My heart is still pounding right now."
"Well what I'm feeling the most right now is that I get to play more with these guys right here, the seniors," added Zuniga. "They're a good group of guys and I want this season to go all the way."
With the victory, UConn advanced to the NCAA Quarterfinals for the second straight season, the 13th time in program history and the fifth time under the direction of Ray Reid. UConn will play Creighton at 4:30 p.m. Sunday afternoon in Akron, Ohio.
The NCAA Quarterfinal will take place in Storrs at Morrone Stadium at 1 p.m. on Sunday, December 2.
"There are years where we've played teams off the field and we went home," said Head Coach Ray Reid. "I'm tired of reading on Monday morning that it's a strange game and that it's not a fair game with us being on the wrong end of it. This is what it's about right now. I got a text from a fellow coach that just said, 'survive and advance'. That's what it's about."
Zuniga came on as a substitute and had three great opportunities, starting with a shot from six yards out 40 seconds into the second half. Zuniga missed another open shot midway through the half and buried his third and final attempt.
"We said to him at the start of overtime that the third one's the charm. It was a clinical finish," said Reid. "Maybe he hasn't played as much as he should because of the guys ahead of him, but he's a great player. An MLS player maybe in the future."
New Mexico's leading scorer Devon Sandoval put the Lobos ahead in the 32nd minute with a toe poke into the right side, finishing off a rebound on a saved shot by Michael Calderon. It marked just the fifth time UConn has gone behind all season.
Mamadou Doudou Diouf equalized in the 76th minute with his 15th tally of the year . Max Wasserman drove in a cross from the right side towards the back post. Sean Weir headed back across the six where Diouf out-jumped the defense to head into the left side.
"I saw the ball play to the side and I go to the side of the box," said Diouf. "Coach was saying "you are going to have rebound today. You are gonna get a rebound goal." So when I saw the cross, I just go like this and flick it in. It was right there and I just had to score."
Stephane Diop had the first real chance for either team in the 17th minute, hitting the left post from a tight angle on the left side. Diop took a pass from Mamadou Doudou Diouf down the left side of the box, waiting for Rodriguez to commit but couldn't squeeze the ball inside the left post.
Andre Blake made a goal-saving stop in the 22nd minute, rushing out to smother an attempt by New Mexico's James Rogers from the top-left corner of the six-yard box.
Alvarez nearly evened the score with a half volley from the top of the box in the 41st. Sean Weir collected a bouncing ball in the box and dropped a pass to Alvarez. Alvarez's one-time strike went just over the bar.
Zuniga had a golden opportunity just 40 seconds into the second half, taking a pass from Alvarez on the right side and firing a shot from 12 yards out that was saved. New Mexico countered at the other end and had a shot from Blake Smith blocked out for a corner. The resulting corner led to a header by Matthew Gibbons saved by Blake.
Flo Liu sent a dangerous cross in from the left side in the 63rd that just missed the diving heads of Diouf and Zuniga.
New Mexico countered again with Blake Smith outracing Blake to a loose ball in the UConn end. Smith hit a slow rolling ball towards the empty net only to have Michael Mercado slide in and clear the danger off the goal line.
Diouf finally equalized when Wasserman drove in a cross from the right side towards the back post. Sean Weir headed back across the six where Diouf out-jumped the defense to head into the left side.
New Mexico's Ben McKendry missed a golden opportunity for the game winner. McKendry had a chance to tap in the game-winning goal with two minutes remaining but missed wide from a foot away.
Neither team had any quality chances in the first overtime.

Recent IPOs: Globe Specialty Metals LogMeIn Invesco Mortgage Capital Medidata Chemspec
Dunkin' Brands Group (NASDAQ:DNKN) runs a series of quick service restaurants (QSR) that sell coffee, baked goods, and ice cream. These products are sold through the Dunkin' Donuts and Baskin-Robbins brands. These stores are meant to be relatively fast delivery with both drive-thru and counter service. Very few of the stores have table service. The company makes the majority of its money through franchise fees and royalties.[1]
For the full year 2010, Dunkin' Brands' total revenue was $577M. This corresponds to a 7% increase over the $538M announced in 2009. The company reported a net income of $26.9M in 2010 and $35M in 2009.[2]
The company's initial public offering of stock on the NASDAQ occurred on July 26, 2011. The company offered 22.25M shares each for $19. This was above the initial price range of $16-$18. The deal raised a total of $423. The lead underwriters were J P Morgan Chase (JPM), Barclays (BCS), and Morgan Stanley (MS).[3]
Approximately 55% of Dunkin's stores are located in New England and New York. The next 43% are located across the east coast, leaving roughly 2% not on the east coast. This massive dependence on Northeastern and Eastern America provides a significant opportunity to the company to expand to the remaining parts of America. If such an expansion is successful the company may be able to enter many largely untapped markets. However, these other markets are not yet proven to be receptive of the Dunkin' chains and may be more difficult to expand into. [4] [5]

Previously I mentioned that "Sometimes some external things need to be
changed(not DNS related) or monitored when an IP changes"
I already have a plan for DNS to get updated using the RFC 2136 dynamic
DNS feature of m0n0wall. I just need to be emailed so that I can do
some manual things which cannot be automated and have nothing to do with
If nobody else is interested in such a feature and because of that it
would never be implemented I could setup a script to query DNS every so
often to see when it changes but it would be nice to have the m0n0wall
do it itself instead of relying on a server somewhere to monitor it. I
would think others might find it useful to be notified when their
m0n0wall changes IP addresses.
I used to do this with my previous iptables system I had and it proved
to be very useful when all your systems send you emails when their ISP
given IP address changes.

Congrats on sending this hard trad line and for a terrific ground up effort Clay!
Let me be the first to say Clay is crazy. He drilled from wacky hook and beak placements and got in gear from very difficult stances. He took multiple falls on horizontally placed small cams and made some bold moves where falls would have been long. It was impressive to put it mildly!
This climb also has one of the funniest-looking moves I have ever seen on a climb, a cross between a beached whale and thrusting, dangling right leg movements that is just hilarious to watch.
A great climb. I can't wait to get back on it.

Tim Cook not too long ago promised to double down on secrecy, and true to form, Apple during WWDC this year had no shortage of surprises that pleasantly caught developers and fans of the company off guard.
But software developed within the secretive confines of 1 Infinite Loop is markedly easier to keep under wraps than hardware, which, by its very nature, is often available to partners months before mass production even begins.
Such is the case with Apple's upcoming release of new iPhones. Yep, that's iPhones plural, because all signs are pointing towards Apple releasing two larger-screened iPhone models this year, one with a 4.7-inch screen and another with a 5.5-inch screen.
For years now, one of the strongest advantages competitors like Samsung had over Apple were devices with larger displays. And though battery life often suffered, consumers still snatched them up in droves.
It's largely believed that Apple will launch its next-gen iPhone models this September, and Tim Cook's desire to clamp down on product secrecy notwithstanding, alleged leaks of what Apple has in store for us are already making the rounds.
Most recently, SonyDickson - which has quite a good track record with respect to leaks - posted two photos on his Twitter account of what may very well be Apple's upcoming iPhone models.
Here we see the alleged 5.5-inch iPhone model situated next to a 4.7-inch iPhone model.
And here's a view from the back
What will be interesting to pay close attention to is if Apple will, from this point on out, completely disregard smaller screens. Sure, the iPhone 5 and 5S will likely remain available at a discounted rate, but once those are end-of-lifed, will 4.7-inches become the new base size for Apple smartphones?

Sleepless overheating...
I have an early year model (1/94) E36 that was overheating on and off until it just stopped cooling completely. I drained the coolant (a little dirty - my bad) and replaced the radiator (leaking), the thermostat (literally shattered), and the water pump (leaking). After putting it all back together I drove it to work and noticed it heated up faster than normal, but was not overheating (temp stopped halfway as it should). Then half way down the interstate the fan belt and A/C belt shredded off (my bad- I knew they needed replacing).
I went through hell trying to find 3 new belts for my car (that's right, 3, decided to go ahead and replace the power steering belt as well) because everyone thinks there are only 2 belts, but as I said before, I have the earlier year model which has 3 belts - no serpentine. I'd feel special if I didn't have to argue with every mechanic and parts dealer in town. The repair manual mentions 2 models, but shows no diagrams except for the later model, which is obviously not helpful.
So I think I've finally found the right belts and I installed them all, but as soon as I started driving the engine over heated within 10 minutes. I noticed a very small amount of steam coming from the thermostat when I popped the hood, but no leaks and plenty of coolant, all the belts are spinning and are tight. I don't understand. I've checked the hoses what feels like a billion times and they look great as if they were new (they're not, but they look it and feel it).
Any ideas? Did I purchase a bad water pump?
I'm very DIY and though it might make me cry, I'm considering inching her to a mechanic I partially trust. Dad-in-law (hotrodder) is coming into town today to take a look.
I created and attached an early model belt diagram since they don't exist; just for yucks.
...I didn't refill the coolant properly...
There's a bleed screw on top of the radiator that has to be opened and then you have to turn on the A/C so that the electric fan in the front is running (but not the engine). Then add the coolant until it starts over flowing from that top screw. Afterwards, put the screw and radiator cap back on and turn on the engine till it's warmed up. Then pour in however much more fluid you need to bring it to the "cool/kalt" line after the engine has cooled off. The instructions are in the repair manual that I didn't read completely through until the dad-in-law came by to point out my rediculous error.
In my defense, due to the air bubbles trapped in the system, no one could tell that I needed more coolant and before bleeding the system of air I was able to cram 1 gallon of coolant in (only .5 away from full - supposedly). I swear i'm not a complete idiot... just partially.
I had the same issue, except i kinda snapped my bleeder screw... Tool me so long to find a new one and now my car has new radiator, water pump, thermostat.. But it overheats 3/4 of the way... But im sure its because my engine fan doesnt turn on... Any idea how much it would cost to fix? I have a 1995 318is
Sent from BimmerApp mobile app
I broke down and took mine to a good mechanic after I found I had blown the head gasket... My mechanic after many troubles (a long story) and apologies found an auxiliary fan for (I think) $157 ish and replaced it free of charge. No wait that was the fan clutch I broke... he found a dead rat in my auxiliary fan which worked fine after the rat's removal, but I think would have cost a little more than $200. Depends on who you get it from.
Don't forget to check for dead animals before you buy a new one!

Commercial Motor Vehicle Repairs
Commercial Motor Vehicle Repairs
In the United States, there were over 677,000 active motor carriers-common, contract, or private-using buses or trucks to provide commercial transportation of passengers or freight in 2004 [1]. Trucking accounted for 40 percent of the nation's freight ton-miles in 2002 [2]. Repair data for most trucks are not public information.
Over 2.1 million roadside truck inspections were completed in 2004, up from 2.0 million in 1994, to ensure that trucks are in compliance with federal safety regulations and standards (figure 12-1). Nearly one-quarter of those inspected in 2004 were taken out of service for repairs. Trucks are taken out of service when they receive a serious violation during the inspection process.
The downtime for a truck undergoing an inspection can vary from 30 to 60 minutes. Trucks that are placed out of service for repairs may be delayed from a few minutes to several days, depending on circumstances.

text: In an ideal world the shoe tree will be an exact copy of the last the shoe was made on. The shoe trees will be just a tiny bit smaller than the last and will be modified to be inserted easily: either 3-piece or hinged, but not with springs as the length need not be adjusted. The absolutely correct shoe tree will only happen with bespoke shoes where (usually) the trees are included in the price of the shoes. Commercial (generic) shoe trees usually have a spring mechanism of one kind or another to adjust them (within reason) to more than one last design. Even a particular manufacturer's trees are only approximations as all makers have different lasts (some more rounded, some more pointed) to go with the style of a particular design. Whether or not you need the tree of a particular maker is a question you have to decide. Admittedly it looks nice to have the matching name to go with the shoes, but generic shoetrees, provided they fit, will work just the same. Making shoetrees is quite a specialised field; so all American trees come from either Rochester or Woodlore, no matter what manufacturer's name is on the tree. The same thing might apply to European shoetrees, both John Lobb and Edward Green trees are made in France, employ the same double spring mechanism and in all probability are made by the same company. The heelpiece varies: John Lobb has a finger hole while Edward Green employs a brass knob. The nicest shoe trees come from Codonnerie anglaise http://www.lca-international.com/ns/index.asp who might have their own production, but who also might buy them at the same source. I checked today's prices here in London: John Lobb £ 55.00 (available in full sizes only) and Edward Green £ 45.00 (full and half sizes). That brings it to a similar price than Lattanzi who, according to pictures, have a nice lever mechanism. Quite reasonable priced, I presume a Lattanzi polishing cloth will cost $ 25.00 while that same cloth from Walmart (of course without the name) will cost $0.25. Additionally Edward Green can take special orders for those Ralph Lauren type shoetrees (£ 80-90.00). They are the nearest thing to bespoke trees as they are copies of the original last, so the shoetrees for last 606 will be different from the ones for last 808. You mentioned that you don't like the finish, but, as they are made to order, it might be possible to order them unvarnished or just waxed or even in a different wood. Last thing: there is no need to have a tree for every shoe and keep your shoes on trees all the time. Once the shoe has dried the leather has shrunk and the soles are straightened you can take them off until the shoe are worn the next time.

Tennessee Smokies announce new principal owner
By Tennessee Smokies | June 28, 2013 3:00 AM ET
KODAK, Tenn. - The Tennessee Smokies announced today Randy Boyd, founder and CEO of Knoxville-based Radio Systems Corporation, will become the new owner after reaching an agreement to purchase the Smokies from the current ownership group.
The deal has been under discussion since January and an agreement was reached in March, followed by the application and approval process through the Southern League and Minor League Baseball. Previous principal owners Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam and Pilot Flying J CEO Jimmy Haslam will retain a security interest in the team.
"We are excited to have Randy lead this outstanding team," said Jimmy Haslam. "My partners and I have been honored to own the Smokies for the past ten years, and didn't want to let the opportunity to sell to a local owner pass by. Randy is a great community leader, a quality person and a first-class businessman. I know he will be an excellent owner."
Tennessee Smokies President, Doug Kirchhofer, added, "Strong local ownership has been a key factor in our success and Randy Boyd will certainly continue that commitment to the organization and our community."
"I have wanted to get involved with the Smokies for a long time" said Boyd. "The Smokies have been part of our community since 1911, and my goal is to make sure they stay a part of our community for another 100 years. My wife Jenny and I plan to keep the team in our family for generations."
Boyd considers the purchase a community investment rather than a financial one. He says he is committed to reinvesting in the organization and wants the fans to have a great experience from the moment they arrive at the park.
"I appreciate the Haslam family, the City of Sevierville and the people of Sevier County for helping keep baseball here," said Boyd. "Communities need baseball. Seventy times a year thousands of baseball fans gather together, young, old, men and women, all races and every income, to cheer their team and enjoy the atmosphere. It brings us closer together."
Ownership partners of the Tennessee Smokies included Gary Wade, Chief Justice, Tennessee Supreme Court; Dr. Dwight Wade, retired physician and founder of Summit Medical Group; Teddy Phillips, principal, Phillips & Jordan, Inc.; Sid Blalock, owner, Blalock Companies; Jim Blalock, owner, Blalock Companies.
The Tennessee Smokies are the minor league Class AA affiliate of the Chicago Cubs. Members of the 10-team Southern League, the Smokies received Minor League Baseball's John H. Johnson President's Award in 2011. They have been entertaining families and fans of America's national pastime in the East Tennessee region for more than 100 years.

CAIRO, March 17 (Reuters) - Libyan rebels will stand firm and will not be deterred by threats made by Muammar Gaddafi, the head of the rebel council said on Thursday after the Libyan leader threatened to attack Benghazi where the council is based.
Gaddafi said his armed forces were going to the rebel capital Benghazi on Thursday night and would not show any mercy to fighters who resisted them.
"We stand on firm ground. We will not be intimidated by these lies and claims," Libyan National Council head Mustafa Abdel Jalil told Al Jazeera television.
"We will not settle for anything but liberation for this country's people from this regime," he said. "Our rebels and their determination are capable of defeating them."
The rebels had moved westward from their stronghold of Benghazi earlier this month, but over the past 10 days or so have been rolled back as a series of coastal towns, several with oil terminals, were retaken by Gaddafi's better equipped forces.
Fighting has raged in Ajdabiyah, which stands at the gateway to the east with roads leading north to Benghazi or a desert route to Tobruk, the last major oil terminal still in rebel control.
"Libyan cities from Ajdabiyah and all of the east are under rebel control," Abdel Jalil said.
He was speaking before the U.N. Security Council voted on a resolution that would open the way for air strikes. The resolution is backed by Western powers, including the United States which changed its earlier cautious tack and now backs tough action.
"We welcome any decision coming from the international community because of the deterioration of the humanitarian situation, and to stop this genocide, to stop this ruler who wants to govern by force or to kill his own people," Abdel Jalil said.
"A no-fly zone will not be enough, there have to be air strikes of some strategic areas and ... entry on the ground," he said. (Reporting by Dina Zayed; Writing by Edmund Blair; Editing by Janet Lawrence)

SUU Netters Top Western Illinois
By SUU Strategic Communication
Related Links
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., April 13 - Southern Utah's women's tennis team posted a 6-0 win over Western Illinois on Friday morning to move to 4-2 in Summit League play and 8-8 overall.
The win put the Thunderbirds on the verge of qualification for The Summit League's post-season tournament, as either one more win or a South Dakota State loss clinches the berth for SUU.
In a match of two short-handed squads SUU lost just one doubles and one singles game in notching the victory. Both teams were playing with just five players in the match played at Park Tudor High School.
Alex Ivanova an Olia Tatarchenko rolled to an 8-0 win over Jessica Callahan and Ashley Rettger at first doubles while Afton Staheli and Ksusha Johnson - teaming for the first time this season at second doubles - were 8-1 winners over Megan Pasdernick and Juliette Schwartz to give SUU the doubles point.
In singles Ivanova downed Callahan 6-0, 6-1 at No. 2, but every other player, Johnson at No. 1, Tatarchenko at No. 2, Staheli at No. 5 and Lisa Pleskan at No. 4, rolled to straight sets wins.
SUU faces league-leading Oral Roberts Saturday morning, then squares off against South Dakota State on Saturday afternoon in a match which could be for the tournament berth.
SDSU takes a 2-4 league mark into a match against IUPUI Friday afternoon in Indianapolis before closing out the conference season against SUU Saturday afternoon. An IUPUI win over SDSU hands SUU the tourney berth no matter what happens Saturday, but should the Jackrabbits get past the Jaguars and SUU falls to ORU the winner of the SUU/SDSU match will advance to the tourney.

Critics Reviews Audience Reviews
Election movie based on a election commissioner Indira (Malashri) who takes on politicians and tries to hold peaceful elections in Karnataka. We have notorious netas like Narasimha (Pradeep Rawat), Ramaswamy (Suchendra Prasad), Gangadhara (Hanumanthegowda), Deviprasad (Devgill), and a honest politician Vishwanath (Lohithashwa).
All are in the fray. The commissioner removes roadblocks set up by the campaigners, cancels a political meeting held after 10pm, halts distribution of saris and TV sets, digs out rings hidden in laddus and cash in betel leaves. In short, she becomes Enemy No 1 of politicians.
The candidates try their best to unnerve her by indulging in violence. But in vain. Ultimately, honest politician Vishwanath wins. How? The only question that comes to mind here is whether an election commissioner can fight on the streets with politicians, arrest them and file FIRs.

|Saleform 1993 revision underway
|Thursday, 23 December 2010 13:57
Following recent industry consultation, BIMCO and the Norwegian Shipbrokers' Association (NSA) have decided to revise the industry's standard international contract for the sale and purchase of vessels, Saleform 1993.
"While the general view of the industry was that the Saleform 1993 agreement works very well – it was acknowledged that some provisions are often subject to amendment," said BIMCO in a statement.
"The objective of the revision will be to address these issues while maintaining the fundamental principles of Saleform. Both BIMCO and the NSA have formed sub-committees composed of international experts with commercial and legal expertise in ship sale and purchase."
The aim of the two associations is to complete the revision of Saleform 1993 by autumn 2011.
"Saleform 1993 is the universally accepted standard form for the sale and purchase of second hand vessels," according to BIMCO Deputy Secretary General, Soren Larsen.

The Biomedical Information Age
The science and practice of medicine has undergone a fundamental change
as a result of large-scale genome projects that led to the sequencing
of a number of important genomes, including human and several mammalian, animal, plant and microbial genomes
in the last 5 years. Ground-breaking innovations in discrete and separate
domains and convergence of technologies from disparate fields are the
driving factors behind the advancements we see in biomedical research.

A $34.5 billion sale of NSW's electricity poles and wires would attract local and offshore superannuation funds, sovereign wealth funds and private equity, provided it was split into digestible parts, advisers said.
An inquiry into the state government's electricity privatisation, released on Monday, said that the government should hire an independent adviser to consider selling the poles and wires business.
Infrastructure Partnerships Australia chief executive Brendan Lyon said NSW could split up the network, much as Victoria did in the 1990s.
"Given the scale of the NSW distribution network, it's unlikely that the divestment strategy would seek to have a single, statewide provider," Mr Lyon said. "It's much more likely that the state would divide the network into smaller, more digestible segments."
IPA valued the poles and wires business at $29.2 billion to $34.5 billion, which included distributors Country Energy, Energy Australia and Integral Energy.
The valuation was based on a $26.6 billion asset base and applied multiples for other regulated electricity distributors, including DUET Group and Spark Infrastructure.
Bankers said there was a strong interest in regulated utilities, particularly from offshore investors as seen during Victoria's privatisation program.
Victoria's poles and wires businesses attracted investment from Hong Kong-listed companies Cheung Kong Infrastructure and Power Assets Holdings, Singapore's Temasek Holdings and Australia's AMP, among others.
While any decision to sell the poles and wires business was not expected until next year, the inquiry found the government should sell its remaining two gentraders, Macquarie Generation and Delta Coastal, and their associated sites.
Citigroup analyst Marie Miyashiro expected Macquarie Generation and Delta Coastal to be sold in the first half of 2012, and valued the assets at $3.1 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively.
She said AGL would be interested in Delta Coastal, after it missed out on gentrader contracts sold last year.
Macquarie Generation was expected to fall into foreign hands given potential competition issues for local buyers. It's the state's largest electricity generation company by capacity, with 4640 megawatts a year, or 37 per cent of total capacity.
The inquiry said the government should sell or long lease Eraring and Delta West, whose trading rights were sold to Origin and TRUenergy last year.

RACV members say better public transport is the best way to fix Melbourne's congestion woes - despite the fact the lobby group has been pushing fiercely for the controversial $8 billion east-west link.
A survey has shown the most pressing traffic issue for the group's members was congestion, and many respondents believed the best way to address that problem was by improving trains, tram and bus services.
The survey results contradict the transport and motoring giant's strong advocacy of roads projects.
RACV's general manager of public policy Brian Negus presented the results of members' transport-related concerns at the recent Northern Business Achievement Awards, The Melbourne Times Weekly Review reports.
According to the group's two million members - which represents almost half of the state's 4.25 million residents - 86 per cent said traffic congestion was their biggest concern. The preferred way to address it was improved public transport, with 16 per cent of the vote, followed by more or improved roads.
Despite the results, the RACV maintains its greatest priority is the controversial east-west link, estimated to cost between $8 and $10 billion.
Once completed it will connect Melbourne's northern and western suburbs via a tunnel that will join the Eastern Freeway to the Western Ring Road. The tunnel will be dug under homes in Collingwood, Clifton Hill and Fitzroy as part of stage one to connect the Eastern Freeway to CityLink.
The state government and other supporters of the project have said the link is urgently needed to reduce pressure on existing cross-city connections and improve liveability in the inner north, which is affected by through-traffic.
Mr Negus said the group has consistently advocated for an "an integrated transport plan" that includes metro rail tunnel connecting South Kensington to South Yarra.
"It is also important to note that better roads don't only benefit motorists; they benefit the freight movements which deliver goods to our businesses and homes and they benefit the 85 per cent of all kilometres travelled on public transport which occur on roads," he said.
"For example, buses are just as reliant on a continuous, connected and efficient road network as the private car."
Mr Negus said the group had a "long and proud history" of lobbying for improve transport outcomes and did he did not agree with a 'roads versus public transport' stance.
The survey is the second in as many years that members have directly told RACV their biggest concerns did not involve east-west link.

Seven-year-old Izzy Darker will remember the poorest people this Christmas – and get her community singing into the bargain.
The Malmesbury Church of England School pupil is helping organise a Big Sing for Christian Aid to raise money to end poverty and to have an excuse a festive sing-along.
Izzy said: "I want to run a Big Sing because a small amount of money can make a big difference. I have put in £9 of my own money"
Her mum, Corrie, said: "I showed Izzy Christian Aid's Christmas catalogue and when she saw that £912 could build a concrete house for someone in poverty, she was astounded.
"We decided it might be a bit much to pay on our own but that she could try to raise the money."
The Malmesbury Big Sing will be on Saturday, December 8, at the United Reformed Church in St Mary's Street between 4 and 5.30pm.
Mince pies will be served, entry is free but donations are welcome.

ALDS: Rangers 5, Rays 1
CHRIS PUMMER: This is why the Rangers gave up a pretty decent prospect for Cliff Lee. The lefty was as good as he's been the last three years, striking out 10 and going seven innings. I would have maybe let him pitched the eighth, but if Texas manager Ron Washington wants to tread gingerly on his ace's aching back, I also can't quibble. After all, your ambition is to have Lee start Game 1 in an ALCS and World Series.
There's already the talk that the Rays are going to sit Carlos Pena in Game 2 after his woeful performance against Lee that included three strikeouts. But I guess my question is, why didn't Tampa manager Joe Maddon protect Pena — who has trouble against lefties — against Lee today? Because he's the nominal starter and this is Game 1 of a postseason series? Please. The guy batted below .200 this season. Get someone else in there.
HOWARD MEGDAL: I couldn't help but notice the run production from Jeff Francoeur, former Met, Bengie Molina, long-rumored Met last winter, and Nelson Cruz, former Met farmhand. Who says the Mets aren't in the postseason?
The problem with benching Pena, incidentally, is Dan Johnson is Plan B, and had exactly the same season Pena did.
NLDS: Phillies 4, Reds 0
CHRIS PUMMER: After thinking for hours I can't think of a single way to expound on Roy Halladay's greatness that isn't already traveling through cyberspace or being printed in tomorrow's sports sections. The man's work speaks for itself. He's the best pitcher in baseball now, just like he has been for years.
HOWARD MEGDAL: As a Mets fan, I still found myself pulling for Halladay to pitch the no-hitter. The way I see it, Brandon Phillips doubling wasn't going to make my favorite team any better. And I wanted to witness history.
The real shock will be if Cincinnati's offense struggles throughout the series. But one got the impression this series could be over quickly.
ALDS: Yankees 6, Twins 4
CHRIS PUMMER: Not quite the advantage the Yankees thought CC Sabathia would give them in Game 1, but he left with a lead and the offense picked up the slack, which it is more than capable of doing.
As sketchy as Andy Pettitte and Phil Hughes might seem as Game 2 and 3 starters, I'm also not enamored with the Twins rotation. The Yankees could bludgeon their way to the next round if Hughes and Pettitte don't both get blown up.
HOWARD MEGDAL: Hard to see the Twins winning this series after failing to win a game where they got to Sabathia at home.

Do Parents Feel That The Radio Flyer All-Terrain Steel and Wood Wagon Deserves Its Awards?
The Radio Flyer All-Terrain Steel and Wood Wagon (see lowest price) is an attractive addition to the Radio flyer brand, with the name painted onto the red, stainless steel body and the wooden slats on the side, and it has some interesting features in its specification, such as the the "controlled turning radius" that is supposed to prevent tipping and increase safety.
This wagon, which is said to be ideal for any kids over 18 months old, offers buyers even more confidence with the fact that it won the National Parenting Publications Award, but has it impressed real parents with its abilities on the road?

THIS bird's eye view shows Evesham town centre and a new building taking shape that will provide more homes for older people in the town.
The photo of the new scheme at Yates Court is up a crane some 22 metres high, which can be seen from miles around.
It is being used to construct 50 new apartments in Evesham town centre.
The homes will form part of an extended and remodelled older people's scheme at Yates Court, which is located just behind the town's high street.
Paul Rice, senior building manager at contractors, Willmot Dixon said: "Access to the site is quite a squeeze as it is surrounded by the existing Yates Court facility, other residential properties and several retail units.
"The luffing jib crane that we are using provides the best combination of reach and lifting capacity and is particularly effective when constructing very tall buildings and ones where there is restricted access."
When complete, the extension will provide an additional 48 one and two bedroom apartments of ExtraCare accommodation for people over 60 years old.
Tim Wade, had of development at Rooftop Housing Group added: "I can see the crane from my office window, which is quite a novelty, and I'm looking forward to seeing the new development take shape."
The tower crane is likely to be in operation until the end of September and the overall project is currently scheduled for completion in December.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 22/2/2014 (1245 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
When the Brandon Wheat Kings finally broke out of their losing streak, they broke out in a big way.
The Wheat Kings built a 7-1 lead 31 minutes into the game, then coasted to a 7-4 Western Hockey League victory over the Moose Jaw Warriors on Saturday at Westman Place, snapping Brandon's eight-game losing streak. Tim McGauley scored three times in Brandon's five-goal second period for his first career hat trick.
The win also solidified the Wheat Kings' (29-26-6-2) hold on seventh place in the Eastern Conference, moving them four points ahead of the Prince Albert Raiders and Red Deer Rebels, who are tied for the eighth and final playoff spot.
"The win and the hat trick, it's nice to get both of them in one night," McGauley said. "… To get this win was huge for our team, and I think this win is a relief for everyone on our team."
Ryan Pulock also had a big night for Brandon. Pulock scored his 61st career goal, tying him with Brad McCrimmon for the club record for a defenceman, and added two assists to reach 200 career points.
"It's definitely pretty special," said Pulock, who played his 250th career game on Wednesday. "Obviously the record for goals, just to tie and hopefully I'll break it, it's an honour to hold something like that and also the 200 points is definitely something I think I can be proud of."
Jesse Gabrielle scored twice for Brandon, with fellow rookie Brett Kitt rounding out the scoring for the home team. Wheat Kings goalie Jordan Papirny had a busy night, making 41 saves as the teams combined for 87 shots.
Josh Uhrich and Colton McCarthy had a goal and an assist each for the Warriors (15-37-3-6), who have dropped five games in a row. Brayden Point and Tanner Eberle also scored for Moose Jaw.
Leading 2-1 after one, Brandon exploded for five goals in less than 11 minutes in the second period. McGauley started the onslaught only 14 seconds into the frame, then finished it with his hat-trick goal on a power play. The Warriors lost their cool during the Wheat Kings' outburst and Brandon made them pay for it with three power-play goals as Moose Jaw was short-handed for more than five consecutive minutes at one point.
The Warriors got rolling immediately after their flurry of penalties ended as Eberle stepped out of the box, received a lead pass and scored on a breakaway. Uhrich struck only 39 seconds later, but Papirny and the Wheat Kings held Moose Jaw at bay after that, allowing only McCarthy's goal late in the third period.
While Wheat Kings head coach and general manager Kelly McCrimmon admitted his squad lost some focus late in the second period, he believed the team was better in the third and was pleased with the night overall.
"We had good energy, we scored, we played with the lead, the power play was good, we had contributions from throughout the lineup so I thought it was good for our guys go get the two points," McCrimmon said. "We certainly needed it and it's a good stepping stone here into the final nine games."
ONE-TIMERS: Pulock is the fifth Brandon blue-liner to reach 200 career points, joining Brad McCrimmon, Cam Plante, Justin Kurtz and Burke Henry … The Wheat Kings went 8-0 this season against the Warriors, who were eliminated from playoff contention with the loss … Moose Jaw G Justin Paulic was pulled after allowing seven goals on 22 shots, marking the third game in a row the Warriors' starter failed to complete the game. His replacement, Zach Sawchenko, stopped all 20 shots he faced … Brandon was 3-for-7 on the power play, while Moose Jaw was 0-for-2 … Attendance was 3,421 … D Colton Waltz completed his three-game suspension and will be eligible to return Wednesday when the Wheat Kings host the Lethbridge Hurricanes … Brandon's other scratches were LW Richard Nejezchleb (upper-body injury), RW Peter Quenneville (lower body) and D Rene Hunter (upper body).

Do not expect to hear news of black boxes being recovered for several days if not weeks, despite the Prime Minister declaring on Friday: ''We are confident that we know the position of the black box flight recorder to within some kilometres.''
The lengthy search for the MH370 is far from over, even as the search supposedly narrows. ''We've had a fair bit of luck as well as great technical work,'' one expert involved in the search for the missing flight recorders of Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 said.
Experts indicate there are a number of steps in a deep sea search:
Phase 1 - Identifying where the aircraft hit water (completed): The analytical work done on the likely flight path of the doomed aircraft, using the last six pings from the plane to an Inmarsat satellite, combined with likely speed and glide time until it hit the water was used to narrow down the area to begin towing the pinger locator from Ocean Shield.
Phase 2 - Locating and identifying pings: With time running out on the batteries, this has assumed urgency. The Ocean Shield was lucky in picking up a ping on the second day along a possible arc 330 kilometres long. Several more pings have convinced searchers the signal is ''consistent with a black box recorder''. They are towing the ping locator to calculate location. In shallow water it is relatively easy to home in on the location as the distance the signal travels is not hugely affected by depth. In water more than 2000 metres deep, the signal direction is affected by the horizontal bearing and the depression angle.
British ship HMS Echo is assisting with hydrological information on the area. The aim is to reduce the search area as much as possible. Prime Minister Tony Abbott said on Friday it had been narrowed to ''within several kilometres'' but experts say the more it is narrowed, the better.
Phase 3 - Refining the search with an autonomous underwater vehicle: A remote operated submersible equipped with sonar will then begin a grid search of the area. But as the gear operates only to within two or three kilometres of the signal, the depth of the water will be critical. It will want to go as deep as the equipment allows and the signal is likely to be fading. That may take days or possibly weeks.
Phase 4 - Sending a camera-equipped submersible: The next stage would be photographing the wreckage and confirming the location of the black box. Investigators will want a full survey of the debris as it is an important clue to what happened.
Phase 5 -Retrieval of the black boxes: The flight data recorder is the most important, with thousands of data parameters from the plane recorded throughout its last flight and earlier ones as well. The cockpit voice recorder, a separate box, overwrites itself every two hours and will record the last two hours of conversation within the cockpit, if any.
Phase 6 - Recovery of wreckage. This phase could be very slow and expensive due to the depth of the water, harsh weather conditions and the distance from land.
The upshot is this will be a very long process. The experts are unlikely to say they have found the plane until they see photos or retrieve wreckage.

The selection of products is amazing and purchasing is easy to do.
However, when dealing with delays and third party sellers there is little support from Amazon customer service.
Do your homework to really understand the company and the culture before committing to work at Amazon since their employment clicks better with some personalities than with others.

Great opportunity for understanding the company.- Very warm and supportive people.- Go get it, attitude - which i loved.- Extremely smart people.- Very very number driven.- very minimal red tapism
difficult to find information, you need to figure out who is the right person to ask by yourself.- lot of parallel and redundant projects.
It is a great company to work for, the learning curve is pretty fast and sharp. Caution - Amazon is not for everyone, you will definitely face a love-hate relationship.

1. Amazon truly cares about customer satisfaction.2. They attempt to innovate whenever possible.
1. Managers typically don't care about helping their employees progress in their careers.2. Long work hours with a 24/7 oncall policy in place.3. To save money, the company typically uses outdated software to power their infrastructure, making it VERY hard to build new things, or to improve/fix the existing systems.4. Most software engineers constantly argue with each other over trivial matters.5. No perks.6. Poor benefits compared to other top tech companies.7. Very few holidays and days off compared to other tech companies.8. The company is constantly playing catch-up to other tech companies, in regards to innovation.
Most SDEs (Software Development Engineers) last only 1 year to keep to hiring bonus, but it's a very stressful and soul crushing year. Most managers don't care about their employees so advancement is extremely hard to accomplish. In addition, most SDEs are very intelligent, but are CONSTANTLY fighting with each other over email, chat and even in person. Simply put, Amazon isn't a great place to work, it isn't even a good place to work. Go somewhere else and be happy.

Microsoft likes it when people activate their software. If you just got a new computer, chances are that when you first booted it up, Windows asked you to activate. It goes pretty quick, and in no time you're off and running with your PC; carefree and without any activation reservations.
But what if you bought that Vista or Windows 7 machine used? How are you to be sure that it has been activated completely? Thank goodness for good news, people! Let's learn how to check our Activation Status!
Do this:
Click Start and in the Search Bar, type cmd. Then either hit the Enter key, or click on the cmd link.
This opens the Command Prompt; a sight for sore eyes in some circles.
At the Command Prompt type: slmgr.vbs -dli
Now wait for a bit, I know I had to; and because I originally wrote this tip for Vista Enterprise and Business, I wasn't expecting it to work. Then, out of nowhere, this window popped up:
If it says License Status: Licensed you're covered! If not, you might want to contact the seller and see what's up!

Retirement REITs — Public Storage (PSA)
Dividend yield: 3.3%
No list of quality retirement REITs would be complete without Public Storage (PSA), the world's largest landlord of self-storage units. Since building its first self-storage facility in 1972, Public storage has grown into an empire of more than 2,200 locations in the United States and Europe, totaling more than 142 million net rentable square feet. And its PS Business Parks interest adds another 28 million rentable square feet of commercial and industrial space.
Storage lockers have been a big business in recent years, and the housing bust was certainly a contributor. Americans who lost their homes or were forced to downsize had to put their belongings somewhere. But even as the housing market recovers, demand should remain high for storage lockers due to demographic factors.
Baby Boomers are starting the process of downsizing, selling their large suburban homes now that their children have left the nest. As they settle in to smaller digs, they will need to find a place to store their belongings. Public Storage will be the first number they call.
Public Storage pays a safe and respectable yield of 3.3%. It has also been a monster dividend raiser. Public Storage has raised its quarterly dividend from 22 cents per share in 2000 to $1.40 today. And the rate of increases is accelerating; the REIT has more than doubled its dividend since 2010.

Omega staff produces three delicious mostly vegetarian meals every day. We offer a wide range of food options at each meal to help you meet your dietary needs, including a variety of main dishes accompanied by an extensive selection of complementary items.
We recognize that each individual has different nutritional needs, and we are confident that our menu can accommodate everyone. We encourage you to think about meeting your nutritional needs over the course of the day, so we provide a weekly menu to help you plan your meals—look for the current week's menu posted around campus when you arrive. (See a sample menu.)
In the Dining Hall there are two main buffet lines, as well as food stations in the back and on the sides of the room. Many guests walk around the Dining Hall to explore all the options available before deciding what to eat. Each menu item has an ingredient card so you can see all the ingredients in a dish. With such a wide range of foods available, you have the option to create your own unique and delicious meal.
A Varied Menu
Our mostly vegetarian meals, served buffet style in the Dining Hall, typically include the following:
- Soup
- Entrée
- Vegetable side dish
- Grain dish
- Complete salad bar with fresh veggies, cheeses, nuts, seeds, prepared salads, and homemade salad dressings, including dairy and nondairy options
- Breads and crackers
- Beverages: juice, local milk, rice and soy milk, tea, and fair-trade organic coffee
Additional items to complement the main menu include:
- Wheat-free and gluten-free breads
- Vegan alternatives to dishes containing dairy
- Omega Essentials Bar: Plain foods, including steamed vegetables, beans, grains, whole wheat pasta, gluten-free pasta, and sauce
- Alternative sweeteners: agave nectar, honey, evaporated cane juice, and stevia
- Variety of condiments, including gluten-free options
Gluten Sensitivity
There are many gluten-free options at Omega. The Omega Essentials Bar, salad bar, and main dishes regularly contain gluten-free options, and there is always gluten-free bread. At breakfast, we provide gluten-free cold cereal. Condiments like tamari and miso are also gluten-free.
Plenty of Protein
We are a mostly vegetarian kitchen, but this doesn't mean we skip the protein. Eggs are always available at breakfast. At lunch and dinner, we serve cheese, nuts, seeds, peanut butter, and vegetarian protein alternatives (expect to see tofu, tempeh, seitan, or textured vegetable protein). You can also combine whole grains and legumes from the Omega Essentials Bar with nuts and seeds to make a complete protein.
The Omega Café offers a rotating menu of nonvegetarian options, like tuna sandwiches or turkey chili, for purchase.
Guest Kitchen Space
We do not have the capacity to cook for individual guests, but guests have 24-hour access to a shared kitchen (also used by our seasonal staff), that includes a microwave, hot water, and a guest-only refrigerator and freezer.

Perry promises to "get Americans back to work," but his policies -- from backroom drug company giveaways to green energy subsidies -- eerily mirror the unseemly big business-big government collusion that has characterized President Obama's presidency. Judging by his record in Texas, Perrynomics might just be low-tax Obamanomics.
Corporate welfare king Boeing provided a formative experience for Perry. Weeks after Perry took over the governorship in 2001, the jet maker announced it was moving its corporate headquarters out of Seattle and was considering Chicago, Denver and Dallas. Undoubtedly, Texas provided the best business environment: lower taxes, less regulation, better weather, less traffic. But Chicago won because Mayor Richard Daley and Gov. George Ryan offered Boeing $63 million in "incentives," including a $1 million buyout to a tenant who was occupying Boeing's preferred office space.
One problem: Texas' slower legislative process prevented the state from making a counteroffer. Perry was determined to fix this inefficiency so he would never be out-corporate-welfared again.
In his next State of the State address, Perry pushed the Legislature to create the Texas Enterprise Fund, giving the governor, lieutenant governor and House speaker the power to hand out multimillion-dollar grants to businesses seeking to relocate to or expand within the state. Two years later, Perry and the Legislature created another subsidy bank, called the Texas Emerging Technology Fund, using taxpayer money to invest in high-tech companies. Perry made government a venture capital fund.
Muckrakers at the Los Angeles Times and the Austin American Statesman have shown a strong correlation between Perry's biggest campaign contributors and the money handled by these funds and Perry's other public-private partnership. Almost half of Perry's "mega-donors," according to the Times, have received profitable favors from the Texas government. Poultry magnate Joe Sanderson, for instance, gave Perry's campaign $165,000 and received $500,000 from the Texas Enterprise Fund to open a facility in Waco, the Times reports.
The Austin paper documents the unsavory case of $80,000 Perry donor David Nance winning a $4.5 million grant from the Texas Emerging Technology Fund. A regional board had denied the grant to Nance's Convergen LifeSciences, but Perry intervened and ushered the grant through.
And just as President Obama uses renewable energy as an excuse for steering taxpayer money to big business, Perry also loves green corporate welfare. Perry was a featured speaker at the national wind lobby's 2008 conference, where he touted his 2005 law requiring Texans to purchase wind and solar energy -- all in the name of "job creation" and business growth. If you force people to buy a product, of course the businesses selling that product will grow.
Perry also shares Obama's tendency to enrich drug companies, employing friendly revolving-door lobbyists. Perry's little bit of pharma welfare was his 2007 executive order requiring all sixth-grade girls to be vaccinated for human papillomavirus, which can cause cervical cancer. Drugmaker Merck happened to have exclusive rights to the HPV vaccine, and Merck's top lobbyist in Austin happened to be Perry's former chief of staff, Mike Toomey. Also, Merck's political action committee had cut a $6,000 check to Perry. The state Legislature reversed this executive overreach.
Mandating Merck's vaccine, Gardasil, was an extraordinary step. When governments require school kids to get vaccinated, it's typically against the types of disease that can be spread in the classroom. As conservative columnist Michelle Malkin puts it, "young girls and boys are simply not at an increased risk of contracting HPV in the classroom" the way they could pick up measles.
Perry's actions as governor suggest that for him, "pro-business" means "corporatism." His words are telling, too. While critiquing Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal in his book "Fed Up," Perry states that economic recovery came from "World War II, when FDR was finally persuaded to unleash private enterprise." Is he talking about the Emergency Price Control Act of 1942, complete with its rationing? Or maybe FDR "unleashed private enterprise" through the War Production Board or the War Manpower Commission?
Or maybe Rick Perry simply conflates private enterprise with private profit.
After four years of bailouts, drug-lobby-crafted health care "reform," corporate handouts in the name of "stimulus" and "green jobs," and cash-for-clunkers boondoggles, does Perry really think what we need is more corporatism?

Lords of the Rhymes
[Media: Music Video]
For those who loved the The Chronic of Narnia Rap you will also love Lords of the Rhymes who rap about Lord of the Rings. I love the lyrics, the silly costumes and I especially love the excellent Gollum solo. You can find the music video, MP3s and lyrics on this site.
I want to get my hands on the Mushroom clock necklace that one of the guys is wearing, it's very Public Enemy-ish. If you like this sort of nerd music, you might also want to check out Blind Guardian a metal band which does songs about Lord of the Rings.

Steve Goldsteinwrote a review of Black Diamond AMPerage Ski on March 4, 2013
Great ski
I now have about 15 days on my AMPs and love them. I am 145 lbs and 5'3" and am skiing the 175 as tele with 01s and midstiff springs. Of course they float like a champ but they carve groomers like a race ski and are surprisingly nimble in the bumps. They don't like choppy hard snow but otherwise are amazing. The biggest problem I've had is that they like to go fast and I end up freezing my ass off waiting for my buddies at the chair.

Your web site is a prime example of why I suggest newbies visit a number of
surname projects. Many of them take pains to explain the process to their own
members, and sometimes one way of presenting the methods will "click."
> On the web site I have included several hundred links to web sites which

> conjuntion with conventional genealogical research.
This is also a great recruiting tool. It demonstrates your commitment to the
whole MARSH community, and proves you're not just a vampire out to collect
some blood (or saliva, in this case).
BTW, I did notice one thing about the site design -- I have to scroll left
and right to view the whole page. I don't know enough about HTML to suggest a
solution, though.

MATLAB Newsgroup
I have a vector
x=[0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7]
and I want to creat x' from x such that
x'=[0 2 4 6 1 3 5 7]
This can be achieved by following transformation
0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0;
0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0;
0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0;
0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0;
0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0;
0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0;
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1]
How can I generate matrix A without getting into for loops.
If I understand your use case correctly, you can employ MATLAB's matrix indexing ability (see http://www.mathworks.com/company/newsletters/articles/Matrix-Indexing-in-MATLAB/matrix.html) instead of generating a transformation matrix.
For example, if this is your input vector:
a = [0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7]
and your "sort vector" is:
s = [0 2 4 6 1 3 5 7]
(meaning generate the output vector such that it contains element 0 of the input vector at position 0, element 2 of the input at position 1, element 4 of the input at position 2, etc.)
you can simply use matrix indexing to produce your desired output:
b = a(s+1);
(The "+1" is required because MATLAB uses 1-based matrix indexing; alternatively, number the indices in your sort vector from 1 to N rather than from 0 to N-1.)
For example (this is a general case; the even/odd indices case is covered below):
a = [0 4 2 3 1]
s = [1 5 3 4 2]
b = a(s) produces b = [0 1 2 3 4]
Since it appears that you want all the even-indexed entries in the first half of your result and the odd-indexed ones in the second half, your sort vector could be generated as follows (using MATLAB's 1-based indexing):
s = [2:2:numel(a) 1:2:numel(a)]
Hope that helps.

John Fairbairn1,2
(circa 1795 - 15 Dec 1848)
BDMsJohn Fairbairn was born circa 1795 ROX?, SCT, The 1841 census, if accurate, tells us that John was not born in Berwickshire, and theoretically between 1796 and 1801. The burial record assumed to be John in Coldstream, gives us abt 1795.2,1,3 He married Jane Waddell on 23 Nov 1817 Smailholm, ROX, SCT.1,2
John Fairbairn died on 15 Dec 1848 Coldstream, BEW, SCT.2,4,3 He was buried on 16 Dec 1848 at Coldstream, Berwickshire, Although his headstone, erected "By Christina Fairbairn, Coldstream" for "her father John Fairbairn Dec 1849, 51 years. Her mother Jane Waddel" shows 1849, it is likely that the headstone was erected later as a burial in Coldstream showing "John Fairbairn 53" as dying 15th, buried 16th Dec, cost 1/-, seems too much of a coincidence.3,4,5
CensusJohn Fairbairn appeared on the census of 1841 Old Quarry Houses, Coldstream, BEW, SCT, with Jane Fairbairn, as FAIRBAIRN: John 40 ag lab b SCT; Jane 40 b BEW; Assumed children: Wm 15, Geo 9, Jesse (male) 7 all b SCT (NB enumerators were instructed to round ages down to the nearest multiple of 5.)2
