In the loving memory of my grandmother.
This is a big shawl, worked from the top down using seed stitch and blackberry stitch to create alot of texture.
It's big, warm and cosy and is ment to feel like a warm hug - a hug I gave to my grandmother for her to think of me when I can't be there to hug her for real.
You'll be using two different color yarn, one for the body and the edging and another for the border.
Of the main color you will need app. 400 yards and of the border color 305 yards.
The measurement of the shawl shown in pictures is 150 cm wide and 45 cm deep, it has a very nice stretchy and bouncy feeling!
I hope you will enoy knitting it!

No, Mr Howard, they are not. They are, rather, reflecting what you said to a National Press Club lunch in March: "I would have to accept that, if Iraq had genuinely disarmed, I couldn't justify on its own a military invasion of Iraq to change the regime."
The PM can't escape two inconvenient facts. Even though solidarity with the US was why Howard took us to war, the weapons were the overriding reason that he provided. And he claimed to be absolutely certain they were there.
"The Australian Government knows that Iraq still has chemical and biological weapons and that Iraq wants to develop nuclear weapons. We share the view of many that, unless checked, Iraq could, even without outside help, develop nuclear weapons in about five years," he told Parliament in February.
Despite intensive searching, the chemical and biological weapons have not been found and theso-called evidence that uranium had been imported from Africa for a nuclear program turned out to be false.
Yet Howard last week claimed an inquiry into the intelligence Australia received was "premature" and that the Labor Party was being "opportunistic" in promoting one.
Naturally, Labor would be "opportunistic", but why is an inquiry into the adequacy of the intelligence premature?
When Howard was pressed on how long we should wait to have such an inquiry, he was vague.
You can just imagine what would happen. If an inquiry were held off until, say, the end of the year, and still no weapons had been found, Howard would say it was no use having an investigation. He'd claim the issue had become ancient history.
Undeterred, the Opposition and minor parties in the Senate last week referred the question of the "accuracy of intelligence" on Iraq's WMD to the parliamentary joint committee that oversees the intelligence-collection agencies: the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation, the Australian Secret Intelligence Service, and the Defence Signals Directorate.
The alternative was a Senate committee inquiry; there were some differences of opinion in the Opposition about which was the better route. The joint committee is set up by statute; it hasn't in the past leaked, and it operates in a somewhat less "political" way than Senate inquiries.
Intelligence agencies would have stonewalled in an open Senate inquiry. They are used to dealing with the joint committee, and much of its hearings will be behind closed doors.
There is a question mark over how much access the committee will get to the intelligence assessment agencies, the Office of National Assessments and the Defence Intelligence Organisation, because they do not fall under it.
But the Opposition points out that a lot of these organisations' material would have been circulated to the other bodies anyway, and so could be indirectly accessible. Also, the Opposition warns, if the Government tries to be obstructive there is always the option of setting up a Senate inquiry as well.
The committee, chaired by a former Liberal minister, David Jull, has two former Labor defence ministers on it, Kim Beazley and Robert Ray. This gives it considerable grunt; also, Beazley and Ray are quite conservative on security issues, which should increase the credibility of the inquiry. The committee doesn't report until December, providing reasonable time for its investigation.
Beazley won't talk about the committee's work, but makes the general point that Australia is "highly dependent" on the intelligence it receives from allies and "therefore it is a matter of the greatest importance that the intelligence we receive is seen as reliable and not tainted".
Howard said last week, "we didn't massage the intelligence, we didn't tell the agencies to tell us what we wanted to hear".
Most of the apparent faults of intelligence may well have been in what came in from allies. If so, exposure may lead to greater scepticism and care in future.
But also, after the experience of the children-overboard affair, in which Howard relied on a brief from ONA, which had in turn relied on ministerial statements, the onus these days must be on the Government to demonstrate that, indeed, "we didn't massage the intelligence". The trouble with pulling a swifty once is that people are suspicious ever after.

IDE or not?
IDE or not?
Oct 3, 2013 at 8:13am UTC
So I'm getting mixed opinions from people all over.
In some instances people tell me IDE's are like crutches and make you weak.
Others tell me that coding without an IDE is suicide.
Side note: If this is in the wrong place, let me know. I only thought to put it here since I'm a noob asking a question about what noobs should do.
Personally I don't use one (Like VS 2012) because when I open it and see all the features, my brain stops and says "Dude, I just wanted to write some code." That, and the output for the debugger is hard to read. (personal opinion)
Not to mention, all of my code has to run on a Linux server, so why not write in Notepad++ and compile on there? It's kind of a nuisance to dig through the project folders in VS and pull my cpp's and headers to the linux server. Plus since c++ isn't 100% portable, the code may not run in both places.
Alas, I am willing to listen and I would like to know from people who are more experienced than me: Is it worth it to a newbie like me to learn how to use VS?
Oct 3, 2013 at 8:31am UTC
Just my opinion, but I think that both arguments are valid. IDE's can make you overdependent on it, and not learn how to compile things with a command line. However, they ARE designed to be labour-saving devices, and as such should probably be used when necessary. When you are learning, it doesn't really matter, because (as you said) the problem is whether to learn how to use the IDE or how to code. My recommendation is to use an IDE (you have to sometime), but for your case, I would not use VS 2012.
My reasoning for this is as follows: VS 2012 is a windows based product. I agree that it can be necessary (and incredibly helpful) when developing windows programs. However, you are trying to code for a Linux Server, which is definitely NOT windows. Also, I have found that VS has (or did have) some wierd little quirks with the language, that no other IDE or compiler I have found do.
In general, I would say that you should use an IDE, it keeps sorting easy, but you should use a cross-platform IDE instead, something that can run on both Windows computers and your Linux-based one, such as Code::Blocks.
Remember, this is just my opinion, feel free to reject all of this if you so desire.
Oct 3, 2013 at 8:34am UTC
I found it handy to do a bit of both: Use an IDE and see what compile options and make files it creates, then go and research what all the individual things mean. Then try to achieve the same thing from the shell.
You are right, using an IDE can be a bit of a crutch if you are unaware of how it all works, but on the other hand you could spend days trying to figure out how to do something in the shell by reading the manual or asking. Then again, if one goes through the pain & drama in the school of hard knocks, then one will never forget .....
For larger projects, I find it really handy that my IDE highlights problems & errors in the editor. It is annoying to have to recompile for something really minor. Even though this can be mitigated by compiling specific files, it is still a pain.
If you are on a Linux server, you can use 1 of many IDE's available for Linux - don't try to use VS for that purpose, best to use something natively. Hopefully you server runs at a suitable run-level for doing a GUI app like an IDE - quite often they don't.
I use QtCreator if I am doing a GUI app, plus it is handy to cross compile an app (even console aps) for different OS's, using just 1 set of code.
Code::Blocks seems to be a pretty good IDE too, I also use KDevelop.
Good luck !!
Oct 3, 2013 at 8:34am UTC
Why not use some crossplatform IDE with crossplatform compiler and use same tool on both platforms?
Why VS? Why not Eclipse, Code::Blocks?
If you feel that you do not need an IDE, don't use it.
But it stiil a good idea to get a hold of using one so when your progect will grow large enough to help from IDE features you won't be lost.
For example many people do not need global visibility area aware rename feature, but for refactoring large project it is perfect. Debuggers will make finding problem areas easier, autocomplete will help with those 100500 named constants (like passing MYPROJECT_SOMESUBSYSTEM_FLAGONE | MYPROJECT_SOMESUBSYSTEM_FLAGFIVEHUNDRED | MYPROJECT_SOMESUBSYSTEM_FLAGMILLION).

Uk Marine
Not to mention VS 2012 is buggy sometimes, anyway i agree with NT3 you should most certainly use an IDE.
when I open it and see all the features, my brain stops and says "Dude, I just wanted to write some code."
- i don't get what you mean by that, it's just a compiler not Blender or anything, if you just wanna write some code then simply create a source file.cpp and code away ;) you don't have to bother with anything else.
- Here are some good compilers for linux if you're intrested:
Oct 3, 2013 at 8:42am UTC
You all have very good points, I had no idea that Code::Blocks could use a linux compiler. I'll have to check these out. I've only seen a few that are good.
Also, I have NetBeans and Eclipse, I'd never tried writing c++ code in eclipse, only Java (Never crossed my mind). Would Netbeans also be a good alternative to VS?

No. IDE is IDE. It usually does include some compilers, but it definitely is not a compiler.
I share the "brain hurts" feeling. Compiler, preprocessor, linker, gmake/nmake, cmake/qmake/autoconf ... those are familiar, but the plethora of GUI options hidden here, there, everywhere under plainsight in an IDE is overwhelming.
I must feel like the fellow, who bought a chain saw (recommended by the salesman). After a while he returned to shop and complained how poor and flawed the saw is. The salesman studied the saw and started it. The client was taken by surprise: "
What is that sound?
IDE must be similar; once you learn to use it sufficiently, the chopping of your appendages* will be much more efficient.

The Chicago Tribune this weekend ran a tribute to homegrown hero Bill "Moose" Skowron, a 14-year major leaguer now battling lung cancer.
Skowron, 80, collapsed while attending a spring training game, his son, Greg, told the Tribune.
"We were leaving a spring game around the fifth inning, which was unusual for him," his son said. "Then he turned down an autograph request, which I'd never seen him do before. Then he turned to me and said, 'I don't feel so good.' "
According to the story, the initial diagnosis was pneumonia, but tests later found lung cancer, and Skowron has since undergone chemotherapy and radiation sessions.
The story centers around the life and career of Skowron, who was a good-sized guy for his time, but hardly hulking by today's standards at 6-0, 195. He got his nickname, "Moose," because folks thought a haircut he received as a youngster left him looking like the Italian dictator Mussolini.
Born in Chicago, Skowron attended Purdue University. He played halfback, once got off a school-record 82-yard punt and played baseball for coach Hank Stram. As Skowron says in the Tribune story, "Yes, that Hank Stram."
Skowron would make his mark as a first baseman for the Yankees, hitting 28 of his 211 home runs during the magical 1961 season of Maris and Mantle. Some of his biggest homers came in the World Series -- a grand slam in Game 7 of the 1956 Series, a decisive three-run shot against the Milwaukee Braves in 1958 and a homer in Game 2 in 1963 against the Yankees for the Los Angeles Dodgers after he'd been traded by New York.
A .282 career hitter, Skowron had struggled at the plate since being dealt, but batted .385 in L.A.'s four-game sweep.
The story, authored by Jim O'Donnell, offers several telling comments from those close to Skowron. Here are s couple:

For all the attention lavished on Landon Donovan and David Beckham, it's Coach Bruce Arena who's made the difference for the Galaxy in the last two seasons.
Even in 2008, when the Galaxy posted a worst-ever 8-13-9 record, Donovan was the league's top scorer with a career-high 20 goals. Beckham added a team-best 10 assists in his first and only full season with the Galaxy.
However, as encouraging as it is to have players capable of rising above the mediocrity around them, two players, no matter how good, do not make a team.
It's primarily Arena who has fashioned the resurgence of the Galaxy the last two seasons, in part because of the loyalty he's shown to those who've worked with him over the years.
It's Arena who's drawn from the veteran ranks of players who've performed for him at the club and national-team levels, including Jovan Kirovski and the now-retired Eddie Lewis and Dema Kovalenko.
And it's Arena who's surrounded himself with coaches who've worked with him in the past, including assistant head coach Dave Sarachan, assistant coach Curt Onalfo and now Gregg Berhalter, who's slowly easing into a coaching role as his minutes in central defense diminish.
"I consider this team my family," Arena said. "And everything I do for my family is to give them what they need and protect them. Those are old-school values that I have - I was brought up that way.
"These are my guys, I'm going to support them. That's what teams are about."
At age 59, Arena's career is no longer on the rise. He took his dominant D.C. United team to three consecutive MLS Cups when the league began in 1996, winning two and adding the CONCACAF Champions Cup in 1998, as well.
He has the most wins as a coach in U.S. national team history, winning 91 games over eight years, leading the U.S. to two Gold Cup wins, a quarterfinal appearance in the 2002 World Cup and a No. 4 FIFA ranking in 2006.
And in two full seasons with the Galaxy, he's led the team to an MLS Cup appearance in his first season and the best regular-season record last year.
Arena said he had coaching opportunities overseas, most notably in the Championship, English soccer's second tier, but never actively pursued a job.
And indeed, having lunch with Arena last week in vibrant downtown Manhattan Beach on an 80-degree day with the ocean waves glistening a block away, it's impossible to imagine Arena plying his coaching trade in working-class English towns in a bitterly cold British winter under oppressive, gray skies.
Yet Arena still burns with ambition. For all the Galaxy's success during his tenure, he hasn't won an MLS championship. And after two unexpectedly close misses, when the Galaxy exceeded expectations, the burden of anticipated success wears heavily upon Arena.
With Beckham in the last year of his contract and Donovan peaking at age 29, the mix of youth and experience the Galaxy boast has many fans expecting nothing less than a championship.
"Those are lofty goals for sure, but we want that challenge," Arena said. "I always feel pressure in every job I've ever had. That's something I want to have. I don't find it intimidating, I find it challenging and I enjoy it.
"Pressure is what you perceive it to be, whether it's from your fans, your peers, your ownership," he added. "If I work hard like I think I can do, I think everything takes care of itself."
When Arena walks out on Qwest Field tonight in the MLS season opener, he'll face Seattle Sounders coach Sigi Schmid, who grew up in the South Bay and won a pair of MLS Cups with the Galaxy and Columbus Crew.
Schmid and Arena are first and third, respectively, among MLS coaches in the number of wins, and are tied with a 4-4-2 record in games between teams they've coached against each other.
Former Galaxy midfielder Pete Vagenas, who played under Schmid with the Galaxy and Sounders and is training under Arena this week in Carson while he's between MLS clubs, said the two veteran coaches share a drive for perfection.
"They're sort of the godfathers of American coaches at this point," he said. "They'd both be successful in any walks of life that they'd choose, it's just in their makeup. There's just something unique about sports.
"And you don't always win on the soccer field. ... No matter how good they become or how good they are as coaches, they're never the perfect coach, and I think it's sort of an endless journey."
As Arena sees it, though, that endless journey is not about the two coaches, it's about the team.
"I never take games as a personal coaching battle," Arena said. "If you do, you have a wrong perspective. ... It's about the team on the field getting it right. It's not about Sigi and I - it's about Seattle and L.A."
And another championship for the Galaxy, a goal even Arena has yet to achieve.

Shell Oman posted net profits of $6.2 million for 2001
Shell Oman Marketing (SOM) posted a net profit of 2.4 million Omani Rials ($6.2 million) in 2001 and has announced a dividend of 600 baisas a share, stated a company spokesman according to Gulf News .
Due to an inflation in earnings as a result of certain unexpected business in 2001, profits showed a decline of just under 12 percent, reaching OR 0.8 million, despite this year's intense competition in oil marketing.
SOM's retail market saw a five percent growth over the previous year. The company's revenues rose in the third and fourth quarters of 2001 as a result of a contract for the Omani-British military exercise Swift Sword 2. Shell Oman secured a contract to provide full drilling service for the maneuver.
The company managed to reduce costs in 2001 by 20 percent despite its obligatory expenses such as its annual fixed license fee of one million Omani Riyals to the government. Soon after the government lifted its freeze on building new service stations, SOM opened a new site at Al Ghubra in August.
The Royal Dutch/Shell Group of Companies began operations in Oman in 1958. In 1997, SOM was incorporated as an Omani company, with 51 percent of its shares owned by Omani investors, and listed on the Muscat Securities Market.
In Oman, SOM offers fuels and lubricants to consumers through its network of 115 service stations and a retail network of resellers. It also delivers fuels, lubricants, greases, chemicals and specialist services directly to government and industrial customers. — (menareport.com)

September 16, 2010
(FORT DRUM, N.Y. – Sept. 16, 2010) The SUNY North Country Consortium celebrated 25 years of providing access to higher education for soldiers, family members and other North Country residents today (Thursday, Sept. 16 at 2:30 p.m.) at the Hillside Lodge in Fort Drum. The invitation-only event was keynoted by Dr. John Deans, one of the founding board members for the consortium, and former president of Jefferson Community College (JCC). The seven colleges in the consortium are: Jefferson Community College, SUNY Canton, SUNY Empire State College, SUNY Institute of Technology at Utica/Rome, SUNY Oswego, SUNY Potsdam and SUNY Upstate Medical University.
Consortium courses are offered locally so students do not have to travel great distances to pursue higher education. Classes are offered at the Education Center on Fort Drum and at the Jefferson Higher Education Center (JHEC) located on the JCC campus in Watertown. Other convenient options include online classes, weekend classes, guided independent studies and blended learning (a combination of online, in-person, and/or independent study) so that students may arrange their studies to fit their work, military, family and civic commitments.
SUNY Empire State College Interim Vice Provost for Regional and Networked Learning Deborah Amory said in prepared remarks, "Our anniversary celebration today provides us with the opportunity to highlight the work of our member institutions, faculty, students and staff on base at Fort Drum and in collaboration with our colleagues in the U.S. Army. In the past 25 years, the world has changed, and these changes are perhaps nowhere more apparent than on a military base and in the North Country. Twenty-five years ago, President Ronald Reagan was sworn in for his second term in office; this past year, President Barack Obama was sworn in as president and commander-in-chief. In 1985, the Internet as we knew it did not exist… Consider the role of the Internet in our lives today in contrast! Finally, during these 25 intervening years, the terrorist attacks of September 11 th , 2001, have indelibly changed the world as we knew it. Yes, the world has changed in 25 years, both at home and around the globe. What has not changed is the State University of New York's commitment to serving our military students, on base at Fort Drum and around the world via our online offerings and individualized tutorials. In fact, from this visionary moment 25 years ago when the SUNY Consortium was first established, we have only become more skilled and more dedicated to serving our military students and their families."
The SUNY Consortium works with people of diverse educational backgrounds, from those who have GEDs to master's degrees. Prospective students can just walk in to the Consortium offices at Fort Drum to ask questions or gather information, or they may schedule an appointment with a faculty advisor. Advisors help students with selection of a college and degree program, application for admission, registration for classes, and navigating the financial aid process. Jefferson Community College and Empire State College have full-time advisors available at the Fort Drum office, SUNY Oswego have advisors available at Fort Drum by appointment, and SUNY Potsdam have advisors available at either Fort Drum or JHEC by appointment. Once the advisor and the student meet and determine the student's areas of interest, the advisor can cross-refer between schools in order to best match the student's educational goals.
The SUNY North Country Consortium was formed in 1985 in response to the expansion of Fort Drum, the influx of new residents and the increasing demand for higher education. The consortium is a collaborative partnership of seven SUNY institutions who share resources in order to better serve students, particularly those affiliated with the U.S. armed forces. This partnership of institutions brings four-year degrees and higher degree programs to Fort Drum and JHEC for North Country residents, soldiers and their family members. Through the program, soldiers get support for the special needs they may have during deployment. Most solders find they can continue classes wherever they go. Advisors work with the active duty service members, members of the Guard and Reserve, veterans and former service members utilizing educational and vocational rehabilitation benefits, as well as family members of these patriots.
These presidents or their representatives will be present at the 25th Anniversary Celebration Thursday.

Ted Simons: In tonight's edition of "Horizon"'s ongoing series Arizona technology and innovation, we take a look at a Scottsdale-based I.T. company, OneNeck I.T. Looks to build and expands on a variety of I.T. and hosting services. Here to talk about his company is Chuck Vermillion, the founder and CEO. He received the governor's Celebration of Innovation CEO of the year award. Thank you for joining us tonight on "Horizon."
Chuck Vermillion: You are welcome. Thank you for having me.
Ted Simons: I got to get a little slow. This is stuff beyond my pay grade but what exactly does your company do?
Chuck Vermillion: In a nut shell, one neck hosts and manages companies enterprise systems for them.
Ted Simons: What does that mean?
Chuck Vermillion: So the enterprise systems are E.R.P. systems often timed referred to are very large computer systems that run the entirety of large organizations. So it would run the financial systems, their accounts payable systems, their shipping and receiving systems, warehouse management systems, order entry systems. It's all combined in a single package. And those packages are quite complex. Are very difficult to manage and we find that companies like to consider having someone who is professionally experienced managing those kind of systems move them from their facilities to our facilities, our data centers here in town will host them and manage them and all they do is use them.
Ted Simons: Is that, we hear about cloud computing a lot. Is that what you are talking about?
Chuck Vermillion: Cloud computing is one of our new primary technology enablers. Many cases our customers own their own servers and have individual servers for individual applications. Cloud computing is providing what they refer to as virtue servers. So they can partition a cluster of physical servers, and create a number of virtual servers that look and feel for all purposes like a standalone physical server. What it allows you to do is become much more efficient. Instead of using 10% of the capacity on a single server, you could use 100% of capacity by having all of those servers virtualized.
Ted Simons: OK. So I have got my finance, my accounting, my manufacturing, my sales, my service, all going to you, all going to a cloud? Where is it all going?
Chuck Vermillion: Well, in our case, we have a couple of clouds. One is in our data center in Tempe and one is in Gilbert and a third is in New Jersey. So there we have clustered servers. We have disks, disk and backup that we also serve to store information and then back that information up. So we have three separate clouds. And depending on the customer and the desire of the data center that would be where that cloud actually physically exists. But for the users it appears to be right there at their desktop.
Ted Simons: And obviously that image is there and it feels like it's there. But it's over there. How do I know that it's secure? If I got a business and I have got proprietary interests and such I want to make sure no one is poking around. How do you know? What kind of security is involved?
Chuck Vermillion: That's a great question. We employ about 20 security experts, network security experts whose full time job it is to help ensure we have the appropriate fire walls and technologies in place to ensure that only our customers can come into our facilities and those customers can only see their environments versus other customers' environments. And it's worked well. We have never had a security breach in our company. We are pleased to say. And obviously there's lots of people that are real interested in doing that. Maybe I just tempt they wanted to try. Hopefully not.
Ted Simons: Hopefully not. I know what your company does in providing these kind of services but let's say me as someone who wants to listen to music, look at movies, read books, is that the future of those kinds of things? It seems like cloud computing, everything will be out there somewhere for me to go get. That seems like that is the wave of the future.
Chuck Vermillion: Oh, I think it is absolutely the wave of the future. On an individual basis, you can back your home computers up right in the cloud. So that as an example, if you store your, take photos and you store those photos in a photo bucket or one of those shutter fly web sites you are storing your photos on the cloud and the good news is if something happens to your computer or to your house, unfortunately, the photos still exist.
Ted Simons: Now, if my business wants to have a certain look, a consistent look, a consistent feel to everything, or even at home, whatever, is that possible? Or do things have to kind of go on their own alleys to the clouds?
Chuck Vermillion: There's multiple paths, same paths to many clouds. Depends on which type of cloud you are trying to access and who's providing that. From your home computer over your internet you could get the Amazon's cloud. If you are a OneNeck customers you could get to our cloud but you could get to multiple clouds via that internet path.
Ted Simons: Talk to us about why you started this company or how this company got started, your involvement with it and what you are looking back when this thing got started and what you are looking at now.
Chuck Vermillion: Well, we started back in 1996, had an idea of -- we were working for a company that had was a standalone entity, spun out of a much larger apparent company. We didn't have our own enterprise systems. We are using our parent's system. We had to host and build our own data center and as their director of I.T. I had absolutely no idea of building a data source center was so we looked to outsource that to provide that to other parties. With we did a nationwide search and came up with a company no town which was ultimately called SEV computer systems. And we chose them to host and manage our servers. Right? This is a precursor to the cloud. We had individual servers. And into that implementation of that system for us, our parent company got sold and we decided that working for a much larger entity wasn't our thing. We approached the outsourcer and said why don't we build a business for you? We will bring the application competency to you and they said sure. And with the blessings of our parent company, we did leave, and built a business providing application services on top of this data center hosted server capability.
Ted Simons: With that in mind and with the history and what you are doing now and what you see in the future, pretty exciting time to be in the high-tech field.
Chuck Vermillion: Oh, absolutely. You know, going back to cloud, cloud is really enabled companies to get into much more complicated environments, much more redundancy at a fraction of the cost of doing it for yourself. And ides transforming the way people look at I.T. as opposed to providing your own I.T. or having your own I.T. staff you can realistically and reliably engage with parties such as OneNeck to take that pain away to know you have professional people managing for you.
Ted Simons: Congratulations on your success and continued success and it just seems like every year something new is popping up. Now it's all cloud computing and sounds like you are there. So congratulations.
Chuck Vermillion: Thanks very much.

A huge sinkhole has closed both lanes of a Saskatchewan highway north of Prince Albert.
Officials say a washout from heavy rains over the weekend caused a portion of Highway 2 to collapse.
The sinkhole is located about 50 kilometres north of the turnoff for the national park community of Waskesiu.
Ken Cheveldayoff, minister responsible for the Water Security Agency, says workers are trying to figure out how to bring down water levels so reconstruction of the highway can begin.
The province's Highway Hotline has reported there is no viable detour for those coming from the north into Prince Albert.
Cheveldayoff says there is one – but it will add about two hours to the trip.Report Typo/Error

text: Furiex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: FURX) today confirmed that Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited has received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of three new type 2 diabetes therapies, NESINA (alogliptin) and the fixed-dose combination therapies, OSENI (alogliptin and pioglitazone) and KAZANO (alogliptin and metformin HCl), for the treatment of type 2 diabetes in adults as adjuncts to diet and exercise. Under its agreement with Takeda, Furiex is entitled to receive a $25 million milestone payment as a result of this approval, as well as royalties on sales in the United States and potential sales-based milestones. Furiex has already been receiving royalty payments from Takeda for the sale of NESINA and LIOVEL in Japan. "Receiving regulatory approvals for NESINA, OSENI and KAZANO in the U.S. marks an important milestone for Furiex," said Fred Eshelman, Pharm.D., chairman of Furiex. "These approvals should enable Takeda to build on the success of NESINA in Japan and leverage its more than 20 years of clinical and patient experience in the type 2 diabetes therapeutic area." "We are pleased to see these important therapies become available for patients with type 2 diabetes," said June Almenoff, M.D., Ph.D., president and chief medical officer of Furiex. "Type 2 diabetes is a complex disease, requiring careful long-term disease management. We believe these new treatments in the U.S. offer patients additional therapeutic options for managing the disease." About Type 2 Diabetes Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes and has reached epidemic proportions globally. The global health care expenditures to treat and prevent diabetes and its complications were estimated at $471 billion in 2012. By 2030, this number is projected to exceed $595 billion. In addition to diet and exercise, patients often need to take multiple medications to help manage blood glucose. Because of the chronic nature of this disease, combination therapy is often required to maintain diabetic control over many years of therapy.

Best Of :: Bars & Clubs
Glitz is what Scottsdale does best, so we'd understand if you were a little skeptical of anything cowboy-style in Old Town. The Rusty Spur quickly puts to rest any fears you might have about authenticity. For starters, if Rusty Spur were the nightclub equivalent of a dude ranch, it'd probably start by expanding to have enough space to actually accommodate the huge weekend crowds, which sometimes squeeze in shoulder to shoulder and buckle to buckle. Nope. For better or worse, the tiny storefront that used to house a bank (the vault is still there, as we understand it) is all they've got. "Scottsdale's Last Real Cowboy Bar" has been open as a cafe since 1951 and got a liquor license in 1958. It's advertised as the oldest saloon in Scottsdale (Coach House, opened in 1959, makes a similar claim), and it's a place you can still hear stories of when cowboys offered their horses beer and reserved the liquor for themselves — just like the Willie Nelson song says. The bar still has live music seven nights a week including four weekly sets by the stellar Psychobilly Rodeo Band.
So you've had a couple of drinks and someone hands you a microphone while a canned instrumental track of your favorite '80s song starts to play. You're ready to tear it up, but it's hard to feel like a rock star when you're following a bouncing dot across a TV screen. If you really want to feel like a superstar (or just a glorified drunk), get onstage at Blue Martini Lounge on a Monday night, when local cover band The Instant Classics will back you up. This solid, seven-piece band has an extensive repertoire of songs, from Lady Ga Ga and Pat Benatar to Bob Seger and Snoop Dogg. They even have a keytar player with a mohawk, so you can rock that Flock of Seagulls song. The audience at Blue Martini is generally very enthusiastic and supportive, and they'll cheer for you whether you burp into the microphone or not. And if you get up there to croon Sinatra's "My Way" and find yourself frozen with stage fright, never fear — there are three singers in The Instant Classics who'll be happy to make it sound like you're just, uh, harmonizing.
Before its unveiling in January, Revolver Lounge was hyped as one of the hottest new clubs to hit Old Town. Thanks to an air-conditioning eff-up on opening night, that literally was the case. The sheer number of tanned and toned bodies crammed inside the Western-themed Stetson Drive swanketeria caused things to get steamy. (Guess everyone had to cowboy up.) While the snafu was fixed double-quick, the place hasn't cooled off since. Formerly home to the similarly stylish SIX, it's just as in vogue as its predecessor. Conceived by owner Steve McDonald as an upscale dancehall with a Scottsdale twist (hence, antique chandeliers sharing space with posh couches), it's had packed weekends all year, hosted a SMoCA shindig in the spring, and welcomed pop star Rhianna on her 22nd birthday. Revolver's proved so popular, in fact, that Southern-style Shotgun Betty's opened up down the block mere months later. Those copycat cowboys!
There are plenty of delish cocktails we could recommend at Sens, Johnny Chu's always-fabulous Asian tapas hot spot, and we're delighted that they've finally built a bigger bar to accommodate our cravings. But if you're looking for a new twist on an old favorite, we humbly suggest the Hot and Dirty. It's got all the dirty martini basics — olive juice, vodka, ice, and a big, fat olive — but it's also got a nifty lil' addition that will blow your mind. Namely, shochu, which is ostensibly the Japanese version of vodka. At Sens, they infuse this liquor with the hottest of Thai chilis, so you get both hot and cold in every sip. If you're not a fan of hot and spicy, don't order this drink. But if you're willing to give the heat a try, just ask the bartender: He or she'll be happy to work with you by adding more vodka and less shochu. They may push the envelope at Sens, but they're not sadists.
These days, everybody wants to prettify the martini with rose petals or gold flecks or God knows what else. But what the hell is a martini except a way to convey the maximum amount of gin? And that's why we've been increasingly enjoying martinis at bars that would never dream of listing a martini as a house specialty. At an old-school watering hole like downtown's Seamus McCaffrey's, the focus may be on the Scotch, but we guarantee they'll pour you a perfect martini should you order one: icy cold, slightly dirty, and with at least three shots of gin. God bless Seamus McCaffrey.
During our probably-too-long drinking career, the bloody Mary had ranked near the bottom of our desired beverage list, hovering somewhere around a Smoker's Phlegm (Jägermeister and mayonnaise) in the gross department. That's until we hit up Carly's Bistro during its weekend brunch and ordered the eatery's version of the drink, which includes V8, vodka, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, pickle and olive juices, various spices, horseradish, and hot sauce. And, wow, Carly's version of this hair-of-the-dog remedy actually rocks, especially when a lovely bartender by the name of Ann makes the beverage.

5.2. The Full Complication of the N(m, q0, E) Prediction, Given E(z) and the Luminosity Function (M, T)
For the real case we must integrate over the luminosity function. Because this function changes in shape and normalization with galaxy type (Binggeli 1987, Binggeli et al. 1988) and because K(z) in Equation 35 is also a strong function of type, separate integrations are required for each Hubble morphological class. The results for a given type are then summed over all types using an assumed galaxy mix.
The integration over absolute luminosity, and over the sheets and voids of the galaxy distribution, is done by the usual equation of stellar statistics:
where A(m, T) is the number of galaxies of type T per unit area at m in interval dm, C is a normalization factor used to convert the absolute density (in number of galaxies of type T per cubic parsec) to units of number of galaxies per unit area, D(z, T) is the density at distance z of type T,(M, T) is the luminosity function read at M in interval dM for galaxies of type T, and dV(z, q0) is the volume element between redshift z1 and z2 corresponding to the magnitude interval between m - dm and m + dm.
The total number of galaxies brighter than m is
i.e. A(m, T) summed over type and magnitude.
To apply Equation 38 we must use Equations 9-11, 29, and 30 for V(z, q0), together with the m(M, z, q0, E) relation of Equation 35. In this way, all variables in Equation 38 can be related to each other, albeit in a multiparametric way.
The simplest practical method for solving Equation 38 is to replace the integral by a summation over shells bounded by redshifts z1and z2, such that the apparent magnitude [for fixed M - K(z) - E(z) values] at z2 differs by one magnitude from that at z1. An m, log -like table can then be constructed by the method of Kapteyn (cf. Bok 1931, 1937, Mihalas & Binney 1981). Such a table has cells separated by a unit apparent magnitude interval along the top of each column and by z1 and z2 boundaries for the rows. In each (m, z1 - z2) cell a particular M - K(z) - E(z) value applies via Equation 35. The volume element in each row, given by Equations 9-11, 29, and 30, can be multiplied by the (M, T) and D(z) that applies to each cell [i.e. at a given <z> = 1/2(z1 + z2)]. The sum of each column is the A(m) value for a given type. The process is then repeated for each type, and the A(m) values are summed via Equation 38 to give N(m, q0).
This, or an equivalent method, has presumably been used by those who compare galaxy counts with predictions of the models, although the methods have not been described in detail in any of the original archive papers in the literature, now to be discussed.

PORTLAND, Me (Jan. 5)
The Jewish community of Portland, which numbers 3, 500, announced that it would give financial assistance to worthy Jewish students needing such support to complete their education. The community's Hebrew Free Loan Committee will give educational loans to students enrolled or accepted for admission at a college, university or vocational school above the high school level.
Loans initially will be limited to $500 in any school year and a maximum of $1, 000 to any student. Repayment will not be required to begin until two months after the student completes his education. This is believed to be the first time a Jewish community has undertaken to provide this type of program. The new loan policy has been approved by the Jewish Federation of Portland and the Jewish Family Services here.

Owning a weapon is right ensured in the Second Amendment in the US Law. Held as sacred by some and sacrilegious by others, few amendments have captured the public's attention like the right to own and use a gun.
In every state, the laws regarding gun ownership are different. While some states are relatively lax on gun ownership and aspects of gun ownership like concealed weapon permits, other states are very strict. Simply put, your ability to purchase a gun and have a legal right to have it concealed on you may depend on where you live and individuals responsible for issuing said license.
Let's take a moment to examine how you can acquire a weapon and a concealed weapon permit in the state of California. We will review the pieces of information you will require when going through the process, as well as what you will need to have ahead of time. In addition, we will talk about exactly where you will need to go for your concealed weapon permit. With any luck, you will have all the information you need to legally acquire your gun and then carry it concealed on you without fear of breaking the law.
Step 1: Acquiring A Firearm In California
There are a few requirements that you will have to meet, including age, proof of residency, proof of identity, and proof of passing a safety class in the operation of a firearm. Proof of residency is usually the easiest to come by. A utility bill, a lease agreement if you rent, anything having to do with your mortgage or home is you own it, and even your driver's license can be used. Proof of age and identity are a little harder. Only three forms of identification are allowed, with two of them being provided by the Department of Motor Vehicles (identification card and license) as well as one provided for those in the military with their military identification card. Also, be aware that handguns require you to be 21 or older, while shotguns and rifles require being 18 years of age or older. The hardest thing for many due to the time commitment is the safety certification. You will need the paperwork with you when going to a gun dealership. Finally, there is a mandatory 10-day wait period before you are allowed to take the gun from the store. This is mandated in all cases throughout the state and is non-negotiable.
Step 2: How To Acquire A Carry Concealed Weapon License With Your Firearm
In California, you can acquire a license to carry a concealed weapon. Known as the Carry Concealed Weapon or CCW license, getting one is a bit different of a process from acquiring a firearm.
A CCW license is acquired by contacting your county sheriff's office. If you are a part of an incorporated city, then you will have to go through your city's police department. In either case, you will have to talk to them directly about getting information for the license itself. The police department monitors all concealed weapon licenses directly. In addition to answering any questions you may have, they can provide you a copy of their CCW license policy statement that lists the rules and regulations for the license. Only residents of a particular jurisdiction may apply for a license in that jurisdiction.
Summing It All Up
Getting a firearm and a license to carry it concealed can be a lengthy process depending on how long it takes you to get your certificate and meet the requirements laid out by the local sheriff or police station. In either case, the sooner you start the process, the sooner you can get it over with. More than anything else, go for the safety certification first as it may take the longest amount of time. Acquire all the other identification forms in the mean time. During the 10-day wait period, begin talking to your local sheriff or police department to figure out what their requirements are. Depending on exactly where you live in California, you can complete the process in as little as a month. Until then, good luck!

text: Jerry and All, We have requested a BOF and we are on the waiting list, but SC05 has not confirmed a room nor that they will even have a room for us. We have followed up multiple times and we will continue to do so. Please all come by booth 2036 at the show (Cluster Resources booth) and we will let you know where it is if we don't get confirmation in time to email out to the list. Regards, Michael >>> "Jerry Smith" <jdsmit at sandia.gov> 11/3/2005 11:27:32 AM >>> Thought I would reach out to you all to see if there had been an official/un-official meet-up for those of us who might be attending SC05. I saw it mentioned in earlier threads, but I don't think I saw a definitive answer. Thanks Jerry Smith _______________________________________________ torqueusers mailing list torqueusers at supercluster.org http://www.supercluster.org/mailman/listinfo/torqueusers

Owls are 18 holes away from state golf berth
From Staff Reports
April 22, 2008 - NACOGDOCHES - The Yantis Owl Blue team leads the Class A, Region III golf tournament by 12 strokes over Lindsay after the first day of competition at Piney Woods Country Club.
The Owls are at 335, followed by Lindsay's 347, with Muenster in third at 369, followed by defending state champion LaPoyner at 372.
The final round will be played today, with the top two teams and the top two individuals not on those teams advancing to the state tournament. The Owls appear well on their way to qualifying for state, which will be played May 5-6 at the Morris Williams Golf Course in Austin.
Individually, Cord Burnett fired an 80, good enough to be tied for second place overall behind Grapeland's Ruston Boyd who shot a 75.
Also for Yantis, Darren Burgess is tied for sixth overall at 83 with teammates Daniel Cerretani and Kenny Nunez tied for 14th at 86. Carl Jordan shot 98.
The Yantis White team ended the first day tied for 10th place with Brookeland at a score of 434.
Houston Tibbs posted a 97 with Terry Thompson hitting for a 109, Cory Ward 110, Jordan Davis 118 and Justin Hunt 120.
