Mar 30, 2014 - By Bruce Tippets, Sports EditorTwo different kinds of victories were produced by the Lander Tigers girls soccer team to begin the season.
Lander crushed the Rawlins Outlaws 10-0 on Friday in its home opener.
The Tigers blanked Torrington 3-0 Saturday afternoon to complete the sweep at the Lander soccer field.
Both the matches were against conference opponents.
"It's a great way to start the season," Lander coach Dean Schaff said. "It's not ideal to start the season with conference games, but it's nice to have two wins."
Schaff liked the early progress from the Tigers.
"We were able to work on some things and get a little better," Schaff said. "Hopefully, we will move forward. The schedule is a little tougher after spring break. We will take what we learned from this weekend and transfer them after the break."
The most important the Tigers did in two games was control the ball.
"We played the ball into places where we were creating an attack," Schaff said. "Even though we didn't have a lot of shots go in against Torrington, that was the biggest area of improvement."
Lander 3, Torrington 0
In their second match of the season, the Tigers were up 2-0 at the break vs. Torrington.
Ella Welsh and Taylor Meeks had the two goals in the first 40 minutes of play.
"We controlled most of the game," Schaff said. "Torrington had a few chances, but they maybe have two shots on goal. We did make mistakes in the back that we have to fix."
Late in the second half, Torrington was called for a hand ball, giving the Tigers a penalty kick.
Schaff had Audrya Tanango put the ball into the net.
"Audrya has been working really hard," Schaff said. "I think that she deserved a chance to step up and prove that she can do it."
The Tigers take next weekend off from competition because of spring break.
"Spring break is wrong timing for us right now," Schaff said. "We are finally kind of getting into things. We are finally starting to get out and play good soccer, and now everybody will be gone."
Lander plays in the Worland Invitational on April 11-12.
Lander 10, Rawlins 0
The Tigers took a 2-0 cushion going into the break. Lander exploded for seven more goals to cruise to the easy victory.
"We didn't play too great in the first half," Schaff said. "Then we kind of corrected some things in the second half. We were able to take advantage of some of the things that they were giving us. You never want to win that way, but they are tough games to coach."
Alicia Espinosa and Meeks had two goals apiece, as did Rachael Troxel.
"We were able to move some people around and take a look at some different things," Schaff said. "Wins like that let you to have a look at some of your younger kids."

An associate Arizona State University professor is in custody for allegedly exposed himself to a Tempe police officer in a park bathroom.
Tempe police say 53-year-old Michael Cenerini entered a bathroom Wednesday afternoon in Papago Park and allegedly exposed himself several times to a non-uniformed officer.
The policeman reported the incident to other officers and Cenerini was later pulled over and arrested.
He's been booked into jail on suspicion of public sexual indecency, which carries a penalty of up to six months in jail.
Police didn't immediately know Friday if Cenerini has a lawyer yet and university officials didn't immediately return calls seeking comment on the arrest.
The Arizona Republic reports that the ASU website lists Cenerini as a faculty associate.

Dear Friends
I have made Rose's Babka Bliss recipe twice. (Actually it's Marcy Goldman's.) I have a VERY small oven, the smallest they make, something they put into trailers and RVs.
I put the dough into 2 9-inch loaf pans (I don't have a 10 inch) and two things have happened twice already:
1. The dough rises so high that it expands around the edge of the loaf pans til it almost reaches the bottom of the pan. That's ok.
2. But the top has burned both times. The sugar carbonizes and the oven starts smoking. That's how small the oven is.
I have sliced off the outer crust and the rest of the babka is absolutely delicious. So I want to keep this recipe and make it work.
So the suggestion I've received so far is:
1. As soon as the top starts to brown, cover it with alluminun foil.
2. Reduce the heat by 25 degrees.
It seems like the best solution is to make the babkas into little babka rolls. Coil them into little snails and bake them on a parchment lined baking sheet.
If I do that, do any of you have suggestions regarding:
1. The oven temperature. Right now it is set at 350, but once the top begins to blacken, the oven temp zoomed up to 450, and I would move the oven dial to 300 and still the oven would be at 400.
2. Should I still consider tenting the babka-snails with aluminum foil?
3. How long should these—something like breadrolls in size—bake in the oven?
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

What is the importance of the title of Richard Connell's "The Most Dangerous Game?"
- print Print
- list Cite
1 Answer
The title of Richard Connell's "The Most Dangerous Game" is important for two reasons. First, the title refers to the things which General Zaroff considers to be "the most dangerous game," meaning prey. Zaroff mentions to Rainsford that he hunts the most dangerous game: men. Men are the most dangerous game because they can reason. No other animal on earth possesses the ability to reason.
The second reason the title is important lies in the game (hunt) itself. For both Rainsford and Zaroff, the game proves to be most dangerous because either man can be killed by the other.
Therefore, the title's importance lies in the dual meaning: the danger of the prey and the danger of the game.

She collects all these fragments and mixes them with choice loam in the spots where the sanies abounds.
Does the insect collect resin impaired by the weather, soiled by the sanies of rotten wood?
They want something different: a wounded, a dying grub; a corpse dissolving into sanies.
I expected to see them putrefying, running into sanies, like corpses left to rot in the open air.
Every living creature has a humour, blood or sanies, the loss of which produces death.
Can the worm, constantly floundering in the sanies of a carcass, be itself in danger of inoculation by that whereon it grows fat?
The whole mass of the kernel, therefore, is strongly impregnated with sanies.
The matter is hardly a thick pus, as in the common sort, but a thinner kind of sanies.
Empima (empyema) is the hawking-up of sanies, with infection of the lung and a sanious habit.
sanies sa·ni·es (sā'nē-ēz')
n. pl. sanies
A thin, fetid, blood-tinged fluid consisting of serum and pus discharged from a wound, an ulcer, or a fistula.

JERUSALEM (Jul. 10)
Some 50,000 Jews live in Soviet Bokhara, Rabbi Yechiel Maximoff, Chief Rabbi of the fabled city of Samarkand and recent immigrant to Israel, said today. Rabbi Maximoff visited Dr. Zorach Wahrhaftig, Deputy Minister for Religions, today and gave him an account of Jewish life in Soviet Bokhara.
The Samarkand rabbi said that the 50,000 Jews include a large number of Ashkenazi Jews who came to Soviet Asia after the war and who, he said, maintain their own synagogues with Ashkenazi rites. There are about 30,000 Jews in the cities of Tashkent, Samarkand and Stalinabad, Rabbi Maximoff estimated.


text: Our studies Our students demonstrate a high degree of personal responsibility and extraordinary dedication. We encourage our students to go forth with an entrepreneurial spirit while pursuing their own objectives. An entrepreneur is someone who sets goals and makes autonomous decisions about how to use his or her resources – and assumes the risks that go with them. Finding your focus Students at HSG are encouraged to design and plan their own course of study. This means setting priorities and getting involved, for example, by joining one of the 100 student associations, by participating in the coaching and mentoring programme or by completing an exchange term at a partner university. Identifying your strengths Our university provides the ideal environment for students to develop a sense of self-reliance. We encourage and support our students in their efforts to set priorities and identify their individual strengths. Broadening horizons For many of our graduates, an exchange term at another university is one of the defining experiences of their time as students. Contact with other people and cultures, course structures, subjects and working methods enriches your whole experience as a student. Location and language do not play the decisive role here; what matters most is that spending time abroad offers you the chance to immerse yourself in a foreign culture. Extensive exchange portfolio Our International Exchange offers an extensive portfolio of opportunities. As part of the regular programme, students at the Bachelor's and Master's Levels can spend a semester at one of over 190 partner universities worldwide, without having to pay additional tuition fees. Satisfied graduates Our students value our system: looking back, over 90% of graduates say they would choose to study at the HSG again (Graduate Survey Report 2010).

My car stopped all together last week - engine wouldn't turn over. Had it towed to the BMW specialist garage who have now replaced the crank shaft sensor. Car now starts, but still getting the dreaded "engine fault - reduce power" message and it isn't even that cold at the moment! The car isn't in limp mode but isn't running properly.
My garage have told me the valvetronics is still coming up as an error message on the diagnosis and it will be around £1k to repair (but in all honesty, they said don't know what is wrong with it and don't know if this will cure the problem).

This Glossary contains terms commonly associated with language and communication assistance. It is not exhaustive but does broaden the scope beyond what is covered in the printed Toolkit. Familiarisation with these terms could prove helpful in your interactions with language professionals.
This page aims to provide links to additional information relating to communication support published by various organisations and bodies in the form of leaflets, research reports, guidelines and articles. The list is organised according to what has been most recently published and is by no means exhaustive, and will be updated as more literature becomes available on the Internet.
The provision of language and communication assistance is one of the legal requirements placed on public bodies by the Equality Act 2010. In addition, the Human Rights Act 1998 also impacts on language and communication assistance.
HTT gives us a single recognisable LOGO that helps Edinburgh City Council comply with our equalities obligations and provides a consistent quality in delivery of customer services. Its benefits are particularly useful in printed leaflets where the single logo and short script greatly reduce the space needed to get the necessary translation information to our customers. The tool kit and training resources are great too.

Electronics Repair Questions? Ask an Electronics Technician
I will be happy to assist you with this question.
The issue you describe is consistent with a power supply board issue.
This is the board where the AC goes to.
I do not think it needs replacement,rather some defective capacitors are causing this issue.
Open unit up and take a look at the power supply board.You will probably see one or more electrolytic filter capacitors that are bulged up in the top-not perfectly flat like the others.
The value of these capacitors will be different,most likely they will be somewhere around-820 to 2200uF/25 V( or /10V)
You can replace them with same values but I would recommend the voltage rating to be higher(like 35V for an original 25V) for reliability purposes.
You can buy these capacitors at any Fry's or Radioshack store or you can order them online at vendors like "mcmelectronics.com"(look for electrolytic capacitors).
After replacing these capacitors most likely the normal operation will be restored.
Attention!-before servicing unit,please leave the unit unplugged for aboutXXXXXall the capacitors will discharge and there in no more danger for electrocuting.
Now,I do not know if you plan on repairing this issue yourself,you will need some electronic background and some soldering equipment.
If not,then I estimate the charge for this kind of repair to be somewhere between $130-$150.
Please note:
there are other possible causes for the same symptom,like a defective Tcon board or a defective inverter board,but the capacitors in the power supply are the most common one.
I hope this helps,
Thank you,and have a great weekend!

June 10, 2009 in Social Networking (E)
[prMac.com] Phoenix, Arizona - Frog Army today is proud to introduce YoFrog 1.0, their group chat solution for iPhone and iPod Touch. Designed specifically to take advantage of the iPhone's unique abilities and interface, YoFrog is a private group chat client. Create rooms, invite friends and talk in privacy. No email address required, no verification emails, no hassle. Just sign in and chat. Don't be limited by the one-to-one paradigm of SMS. Be social!
Great for social teens and young adults alike, YoFrog sports an easy-to-use interface with well understood chat room concepts. It works on all iPhones and iPod touch devices, even those who never upgraded from iPhone OS 2.0. Chat members can invite as many friends as they wish; make a room for the entire school or just a buddy. Virtually unlimited rooms, messages and friends can be set up, with no per-message fees or limits.
"Version 1.0 is a solid basic offering meant to get users started on group communication" said David McCuistion, co-founder of Frog Army. "We felt public chat was too noisy and one-to-one chat too limiting, so the future will be groups communicating together both in public and in private. The YoFrog server is Linux and Java-based, and incredibly scalable for the number of users we're expecting. We'll be launching on Android in a few months too, allowing iPhone and Android users to chat together as well".
With YoFrog, members can choose their own message color for personality, and quickly switch between rooms to maintain multiple conversations. Rooms are invite-only to preserve privacy, but easy for any member to invite someone else. And so that buddies can catch up later on, messages are saved even when they're not around.
Feature Highlights:
* Easy to use

Is sleeping with your baby dangerous?
Far from seeking to demonise parents, advice to always put sleeping infants in their cots is a lifesaver
To sleep with your baby? Or not to sleep with your baby? That is the question facing about 300,000 households across the UK after research suggested that sleeping with a parent increases the risk of cot death.
The study, which found that just over half of cot deaths occurred when a child was sleeping with a parent, has sparked concern from some quarters that it demonises the parental bed. But that is not what the researchers intended.
The study was led by the world's greatest authority on cot death, Professor Peter Fleming from the University of Bristol. It was his team that in 1991 introduced the Back to Sleep campaign — where parents were urged to put their babies to sleep on their backs — which has…

And Dedan, and thema, and Buz, and all that have their hair cut round.
The seat of their government is at thema (or Tehama), where their prince and governor rabbi Chanan resides.
Gorbotha has already risen to his feet and thema is growling.
With all your appetite for knowledge, however, this thema might interest you little, so that I shall go on to other matters.
Consider the paths of thema, the ways of Saba, and wait a little while.
It makes two streets, with houses on both sides of thema strip three hundred feet wide and three-quarters of a mile long.

Nissan Unveils e-NV200 Panel Van Bound for FedEx
Nissan's e-NV200 is in the process of becoming the next FedEx delivery van, and today the brand unveiled its e-NV200 panel van in co-operation with FedEx at the IAA Commercial Vehicle International Motor Show in Hanover.
The e-NV200 combines the all-electric powertrain found in the Nissan Leaf, with Nissan's already successful NV200 utility vehicle to provide an emissions-free delivery van. FedEx is already operating 130 all-electric vehicles worldwide, and wants to increase the efficiency of its global fleet 20 percent by 2020.
FedEx has already put these electric Nissan vehicles on the streets of London, England and Yokohama, Japan to test their real-world feasibility, the feedback from which will influence the final production version which will start being assembled in mid-2013. Battery charging time is also important in the delivery field, and Nissan says that with a quick charger from the company, the e-NV200 can retain 80 percent charge in just 30 minutes.
"The e-NV200 will offer all the spaciousness, versatility and practicality of a traditional diesel or gas-powered compact van, but with zero CO2 or other pollutant emissions at the point of uses," said Hideto Murakami, corporate VP of Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.

Rogers LS3/5A Monitors $700.00
3 Attachment(s)
These monitors fell into the hands of a DIY enthusiast who used them to test out a few tweaks before they came to me. The Woofers have 1/4" holes drilled into the dust caps. "audiophile" speaker terminals were installed. Lastly, horrendous speckle painted was used to cover blemishes to the cabinets. Serial numbers are: (SO-14-64-7A) & (SO-14-64-7B)
How do they sound? Great! I used these for ten years before signing onto the OB band wagon. For small rooms with set amps, these are hard to beat. They
are magic with vocal and acoustic pieces. DCR upon request. I have an extensive e-bay record that can be viewed under Shokujitsu. Buyer pays all shipping costs. No NO NO overseas shipping.
The mods explain why you are selling them so cheap. I'm just now restoring a pair...
These are not collectors items by any means. The guy I bought them from is a savvy audiophile who amassed a fortune in audio equipment back when the stuff was cheap. He got me hooked and these Rogers were my first foray into
"hi-fi" I could afford them due to the condition. Good luck with your restoration.
- Jason
I have all the pieces, just need to assemble them properly.
The Rogers cabinets are built like tanks. Very heavy for their size. Are you building from scratch?

Witch hunt: Wash. Times literally tells its readers to be "very afraid" of Obama judges
Blog ››› ››› ADAM SHAH
The Washington Times appears to be ramping up its shrill rhetoric against President Obama's judicial nominees, and at the same time deciding not to provide its readers any new content. In an editorial headlined "The Worst Judiciary Ever," the Washington Times recycled old falsehoods to attack several judicial nominees and tells its readers to "be very afraid."
The Times asserted that President Obama is trying "to remake the federal judiciary into a den of criminal-coddling left wingers completely alien to most Americans' sense of equal justice under law. Together, these nominees are dangerous to the American legal system."
We've previously dealt with almost all of their attacks -- many of which were literally cut-and-pasted from old editorials -- including the Times' attacks on Second Circuit nominee Robert N. Chatigny (who is so radical he has the support of Michael Mukasey); Ninth Circuit nominee, Goodwin Liu (who is so radical he has the support of Ken Starr and John Yoo); confirmed Seventh Circuit judge David F. Hamilton (who is so radical he had the support of Republican Sen. Richard Lugar); district court nominee Edward Chen; and Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor (who is so radical that Republican Sens. Lamar Alexander, Kit Bond, Susan Collins, Lindsey Graham, Judd Gregg, Lugar, Mel Martinez, Olympia Snowe, and George Voinovich voted for her).
One other smear -- on district court nominee Louis Butler -- was a retread of an attack that has also been pushed by the Republican National Committee and was debunked by our partner organization, PoliticalCorrections.org.
The Times ended its editorial by stating: "This is just a partial list. Be very afraid." (Who wrote this editorial, a sixth grader?) One can only hope no one is actually relying on Washington Times editorials for information about judicial nominees.

So are we! And we're doing free on-site financial analyses for you while there.
Managing the business side of your brewery may not be the most enjoyable part of your job, but it's certainly a necessity. Ekos Brewmaster makes it easy to organize, manage, and integrate information from every area of your brewery into one easily accessible location. Ekos Brewmaster integrates seamlessly with Quickbooks, giving you the ability to monitor everything from sales and inventory to raw ingredients and equipment history with a few clicks of a mouse or swipes of your mobile device.
Are you trying to run your brewery using Excel? Maybe you've considered the over-priced and overly-complicated brewery management software packages available to craft breweries, and realized they just make things more difficult.
Finally, there's a better solution. Ekos was designed to be easy to use, but still gives you all the tools you need to run and grow your brewery.
Keep your business growing by giving your sales team the information they need when they need it. No more calling the brewery to check for available inventory - just a few taps of your mobile phone or tablet and you have the answer. Create sales orders, track leads, and appointments all from one application. Easily see your sales performance at anytime.
We've worked hard to make production management easy. Pick the recipe you want to use, and select the number of barrels to produce, and let Ekos do the math. Allocation of ingredients from your stock room is handled automatically. Ekos can tell you how much it costs to produce the batch, keg, bottle, or can. You can also track equipment maintenance and repairs.
As you know, it takes a while to make beer. Knowing what you have in inventory for both raw materials and packaged beer is crucial to running an efficient and profitable brewery.
To run a profitable business you have to watch the bottom line. Automatically generate TTB reports, excise and sales tax reports. Ekos integrates seamlessly with QuickBooks.

Really pleased to see this discussion happen, and I will add another
 +1 for members-only.

 I still don't understand why folks who know better than to connect a
 valuable resource to the internet without a firewall still have no
 problem with a wide open space at 18th & Mission.

 I've talked to several people -- GOOD people -- that NB is losing
 because of this. And note the excellence of the folks in this thread.
 You've pretty much lost me: every one of my physical contributions to
 the space has been either stolen or trashed. (I'm not angry: these
 were experiments in communality, but the results speak for
 themselves.)

Though, to be fair, in the poll I took of people last year, nobody mentioned lost stuff among the things they didn't like about the space (which was more likely to be mess, people sleeping, or drama). And quite a few people mentioned the openness as a reason why they *did* like the space. I strongly suspect that if you keep something in the space and lose it, you are disinclined to return: it's just not that everyone is chased off by this.

I also really don't like the GOOD people are leaving the space meme. I've heard this since I first threw myself into NB, and it's sort of unquantifiable as there are a stream of GOOD (but different) people who also turn up. I'm not entirely sure how much we should be altering our behaviour to align with third parties who no longer wish to be involved; I am always interested to sit down and talk to people who have left and ask them directly, but in my experience their actual reasons get fairly mangled by the time they go through other people. Much of the organizational challenge of NB right now is because a lot of the early members have moved on, but left no real processes or explanations for others to take over their roles. That said, a strongly allied point is about preventing people who currently wish to be involved from burning out, and returning people coming back, taking one look, and then backing out slowly once again.

d.

 NB is awesome and I'd love to support it, but why should I care about
 Noisebridge if Noisebridge doesn't care enough to take care of itself?

 This being NB, a members-only rule is not going to get a Fascist
 "PAPERS PLEASE" enforcement, people will still wander in. What this is
 is mostly a handy way to let people know Noisebridgers are taking
 responsibility for the space. Ideally drop-ins would need a member to
 vouch for them, meaning newcomers know they would be watched, and
 sketchy people would be easier to eject: "sorry, this is a
 members-only space." This might even improve the experience of
 visiting NB for the first time, as a vouching member would actually
 have to interact with the newcomer.

 Please let's just try this, heck, I would even join as a member, and
 not just pay dues (as I haven't been doing lately).

We have used SNAP to spay/neuter many strays around my office building to assist in keeping the cat population down in the area. The services they provide are invaluable to our Houston community!
Our small, all-volunteer non-profit has spay/neuter of community cats and stray dogs as its primary mission. I have taken hundreds of cats and many dogs to the SNAP clinic in San Antonio during the seven years of our organization's work. Always helpful and concerned about the welfare of the animals, the veterinary staff at SNAP has several times gone above and beyond the basics to provide services to cats I've brought in. I've also taken animals there for wellness exams. Both professional and support staff have provided excellent, caring service to animals most in need.
I have had numerous cats and dogs fixed through SNAP. I always took them to Houston on Shepard and Durham until I learned about the Mobil Clinic. The staff has always been very courteous to me and take very good care of my animals. You could not ask for a better organization.
I love SNAP! I love what they do and their mission to end homeless animals by spay/neuter! My baby is fixed with them. Their love and passion for animals are admirable!
I have been very impressed with the staff of this organization. They really care about the animals. They also do a great job of educating the public about spay-neuter.
I know SNAP (Spay Neuter Assistance Program) is making a difference when I drive down the street and DON'T see dead animals on the side of the road or animals roaming the streets homeless! 'No Birth Is The First Step To No Kill'! And when the city tells me that the no-kill rate is at 82%, which is significant! Good job everyone!
SNAP has helped so many animals and their families in our community. From offering QUALITY free spay/neuter surgeries and rabies shots to those who qualify...to low cost S/N and wellness services for the public. My furkids were spayed/neutered at SNAP and receive their annual checkups there every year.
I'm thankful that Houston, Pasadena and San Antonio residents can benefit from such a great organization! And I'm honored to be a member on the SNAP Board of Directors and a SNAP volunteer. I strive every day to help homeless animals and to make a difference.
SNAP is an amazing organization! Their staffs are awesome and work with passion. They take good care of my pet and I'd definitely recommend SNAP to all my friends and family.
SNAP has been caring for my three furry babies for years (neutering and wellness). The staff and doctors there have been wonderful. Always so friendly and have always made my babies feel comfortable. LOVE LOVE LOVE them. I always recommend SNAP to everyone.

Web API uses OData for most of it's responses. It's the core of the system. Yes you can do things like returning a pure string and even dynamic etc. but the power of the system lies in the ability to page, sort, and SELECT against your data source.
Any SPA or indeed anyone using WebAPI is going to need projections approximately 80% of the time given that the average project will display lists of data about 80% of the time and CRUD about 20% of the time (Microsoft's own numbers when describing the power of OData!).
Thus the correct way is to request a projection against a data source that returns the exact information you want from the datasource and nothing else. As I used in my other post, if I want all of the Phone #s of a contact and I want to display only I would Return Contacts.ID, Contacts.Name, ContactPhoneNumbers.PhoneNo. This results in a small data set that is quick both for the Database Server AND for the transmission over the wire and is memory efficient at every level.
However this is what Microsoft requires with WebAPI in the most common scenario of programming anything hooked up to a database (list data): Select Contacts.*, ContactPhoneNumbers.* FROM Contacts INNER JOIN ContactPhoneNumbers ON Contacts.ContactID = ContactPhoneNumbers.ContactID
Instead of returnning 3 columns of information you've returned every column in both tables. Given that the average contact table will have probably 20-30 columns and the Phone Number table could have 7 or 8, and likely there is a note field on the contact that will be nvarchar(max) and could have a 2000 word essay written in it in HTML, you've now taken a paged source of 10 records from a few K from the server and over the wire to several hundred times that. Further the more results, the expodentially worse it gets.
And this doesn't bring up the memory usage issue. The SQL Server has to load all of that data into memory, then WEB API has to load it into memory once from the SERVER and then likely another time to stream it in their json/xml writer implementation. Thus your web server is going to have memory issues FAST and so will your sql server (any SQL admin seeing what's coming over the wire with Web API will quickly put a stop to it's use for this very reason, to say nothing of the guys paying for your bandwidth and your customers on less than optimal internet connections who will see a brutally slow app)
Thus MS is making excuses for why they're not supporting the most important operation there is, second only to WHERE when using a database. And the result is going to be crappy, slow applications that don't scale -- Or people simply won't use it.
And yes, this is supposed to be the long term replacement for WCF OData Services (WCF Web API is it's official name and this is just ASP.NET Web API for a reason).
Hence my frustration. I have to use the old, brutally complex WCF Web API for the new project I'm working on because MS won't get their replacement for WCF WEb API right until V3. Then when V3 comes along I'm going to have to completely retool the guts of our app and likely break our own client implementations AND third parties using our API because MS will have depreciated WCF Web API when they release Version 1 of ASP.NET Web API leaving it the bastard child that will lose functionality support in VS.net much like they did with WSE when they brought out WCF, even though WCF to this day still doesn't support major parts of WSE several versions later (Shared Secret with encrypted communication without having to have an expensive x509 certificate anyone?).
Same old MS routine. Did it with Linq to SQL, did it with WSE, did it with WinForms (same as VB 6 stuff and thus broken from day one) to WPF To Silverlight, etc. etc. etc: Good implementation of something but gets unwhiedy as versions go by because of the lack of forsight originally, ditch it for something new, but the something new isn't really done and doesn't really replace the old stuff, but support for the old stuff that actually worked, even if it was brutally complex goes away. Then we're left with busted stuff that we have to hack to work until MS finally fixes it and puts in all of the stuff they missed the first time, but then the cycle continues.
Wash rinse repeat.
I understand that things evolve over time and you need to adapt and new technologies come along. What I don't understand is MS's ability to accept major breaking issues and push them out the door anyhow because of some timeline. It's the core difference between Apple and Microsoft. SJ released products when he was good and ready and he liked the results and it worked as intended. Microsoft releases them for beancounters whether or not their ready and work in the scenarios that are clearly required. SJ added new features that were world changers, not new features that should have obviously been required for the previous version. (i.e. the addition of the app store to iOS back in the day)
Next stop the completely unfinished Windows 8 that breaks the usage of all power users of desktop computers because they are not going to actually address the core issue of replacing the start menu with something that's actually usable in this scenario. Tech geeks will get pissed off just like they did with Vista, adoption will be horrible on all things other than tablets and maybe laptops because the geeks will tell all of their friends that it sucks and to stay away and MS has another Vista on their hands. Windows 9 will address this glaring issue that a billion 3rd parties have hacked into the OS and made the OS flaky in the process and tech geeks will like it and it will get wider adoption... if MS hasn't outright lost by that point simply because they think they need to hit an arbitrary release date instead of making a really great product that really works for the scenarios it's designed for.
Apple is almost a trillion dollar company. Meanwhile Microsoft has 0 growth and 0 increase in stock price as a result since Bill Gates left. This is why and it's too bad.

Tony Dungy
Tony Dungy's gimmick is not having a gimmick. After a decade that made anti-heroes cliche (the 1990s), Dungy's single most rebellious act may be the fact that he flies under the radar and lives quietly.
Tony Dungy spends a good deal of practice alone, and when he finds me afterward he walks toward me by himself, not surrounded by the usual heel-nipping entourage that most Public Figures carry with them.
"God has expectations of you in this business. You're a lamp and how you carry yourself is very important in the midst of the spiritual challenges." What challenges? "Remaining humble when you do well, and keeping a decent attitude when you're losing. You get the sense in this league that not everyone can end up the big winner. At the end of a season you have to evaluate the spiritual side of what you accomplish."
The Colts, both Christians and otherwise, keep a low profile, choosing instead to simply "bang somebody up" and take care of their business on the field. In a league of chest bumps and fingers pointed toward the sky where even faith is a commodity, less is more on this team. As far as coach Tony Dungy is concerned, that's just fine.

Group revenues had risen 8% in the first half to £535m. The buoyant housing market had raised sales in the UK and Ireland 14%. 'However, market conditions in some of the overseas areas and in respect of commercial interiors have been difficult,' SIG added. The shares tumbled 35 1/2p to 255 1/2p.
SIG's commercial interiors arm fits-out offices, factories and shops and has suffered from a slide in orders across Europe. The group said sales at the arm in the UK were hit by a downturn in commercial property and had fallen in the Netherlands. US sales were also down, although they were ahead of the last six months of 2001. Analysts had pencilled in pre-tax profits of £57.9m for 2002, from £51.3m a year ago.

Caligula is one of only three films that Ebert ever walked out of.
Hedonistic distractions have existed from Caligula and Nero to Andreotti and Berlusconi.
You Michael, have impersonated, or played may be a better word, Mozart, ex-Prime Minister Tony Blair, Caligula.
Caligula drank "pearls of great price dissolved in vinegar."
But that faith was dashed when I saw that someone had raided the Caligula set and planted the old columns at Invesco Field.
Occupied with their Dead, their feeling towards common flesh and blood is the feeling of Caligula.
Caligula was staring at the girl as he would on some unearthly shape.
But before Petronius' letter was in the hands of the emperor, Caligula's intentions had been frustrated by Agrippa.
Caligula himself led the way to the triclinium and Dea Flavia followed him.
Not far off, between Puteoli and Baiae, Caligula performed some foolish stunt of his on a bridge of boats.
cognomen of the third Roman emperor (12 C.E.-41 C.E.), born Gaius Caesar. The nickname is Latin, literally "little boot," given when he joined his father on military campaigns when still a toddler, in full, child-sized military gear; diminutive of caliga "heavy military shoe," of unknown origin.
A cruel and insane ruler of the Roman Empire in the first century a.d.; one of the twelve Caesars. To humiliate the senators of Rome, he appointed his horse to the senate.

I was able to crack my wep in wmare insteads of the live cd and it worked just fine.
Is your network interface in monitor mode?
(Because if I set my wifi0 into monitor mode i'll get a new interface named mon0 which is monitor mode enabled)
Yes, sure you can use iwconfig, but i said how I set my device into monitor mode
Increase your RAM if it's to few ..
try monitor mod
copy the wlanX
replace (X) with the number that showen in airmon-ngCode:airmon-ng wlanX
may work if the problem was with RAM
If you run 'df -h' you'll see that you don't have any space. To get around this you can install BT on a USB drive and go persistent or you can mount a volume and cd to it prior to getting your cap.
I experienced exactly the same problem as you did. And I found that it wasn't the captured packets those consumed the RAM space, but the packets those I sent out to replay.
I solved this by using the --ivs switch in airodump-ng to have only the IVs saved. Here is how the command looks like:
airodump-ng -c 1 -w filename --bssid 00:11:22:33:44:55 --ivs mon0
Be advised that the file will be saved in .ivs, instead of .cap.
You may also save the file directly to your much larger physical drive. Then, the command above would be:
airodump-ng -c 1 -w /media/disk/filename --bssid 00:11:22:33:44:55 --ivs mon0
Good luck.

The objectives of this study were to detect and determine the different genotypes of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) found in high-grade squamous preinvasive lesions of the uterine cervix of Cameroonian women. HPV genotyping was conducted on 37 endocervical secretions of women with high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions. HPV was found in 31 of the 37 women (83.8%); 9 different HPV genotypes were identified. The genotypes with high oncogenic potential were found in decreasing order of frequency as follows: 16, 18, 45, 33, 35 and 68. The frequency of strains found per patient ranged from 1 to 3. Genotypes 16 and 18 were single in 17 out of 31 patients. They were associated with other HPV genotypes in 4 out of 31 patients. In this study genotypes 16 and 18 are the most frequent genotypes encountered in high grade squamous preinvasive cervical lesions in Yaounde. This finding, if confirmed on a larger sample, portrays the potential effectiveness of HPV vaccines in the Cameroonian population as a preventive measure against cervical cancer. However, the position of genotype 45 is not negligible and should be confirmed on a large sample.

Epton, T. and Harris, P.R. (2008) Self-affirmation promotes health behavior change. Health Psychology, 27 (6). pp. 746-752. ISSN 0278-6133
Objective: Evidence shows that self-affirmation has a positive effect on message acceptance and other variables that motivate health behavior change: however. this has not been translated into actual behavioral change. We propose that particular features of the previous studies may account for this failure: the current study addresses this. It is designed to test whether a self-affirmation manipulation can increase a health-promoting behavior (fruit and vegetable consumption). It also explores the extent to which efficacy variables mediate the self-affirmation and behavior relationship.
Design: Women (N = 93) were randomly allocated to a self-affirmation or control task prior to reading a message regarding the health-promoting effects of fruit and vegetables.
Main Outcome-Measures: Response-efficacy, self-efficacy. and intention measures were taken immediately after exposure to the message, followed by a 7-day diary record of fruit and vegetable consumption.
Results: Self-affirmed participants ate significantly more portions of fruit and vegetables. an increase of approximately 5.5 portions across the week, in comparison to the control group. This effect was mediated by response-efficacy. Conclusion: Self-affirmation interventions can successfully influence health-promoting behaviors.

Smith Responds to Allegations at Tuesday's County Commission Meeting
John Smith of Gunby Communications responds to allegations made in Tuesday's Stephens County Commission meeting.
Smith spoke with AM 630 WNEG on Wednesday.
Tuesday, Stephens County Commissioners postponed a vote on purchasing a number of new pieces of emergency communications equipment for the E-911 center because Smith was currently under investigation.
Stephens County Administrator Phyllis Ayers says that Smith is under investigation by the GBI for listening to and recording five different conversations on the administrative phone line of Stephens County E-911/EMA Director Denny Folsom.
Also, Ayers says Smith has threatened litigation against the county and played the recordings for a county commissioner in September in what she calls an effort to get the county not to change the current E-911 maintenance contracts in place with Gunby.
Stephens County notified Gunby in October that that it had chosen not to auto-renew annual maintenance contracts currently in place with Gunby for items at the E-911 center.
Smith denied the allegations made in Tuesday's meeting.
"I deny ever having listened in on or recording any conversation on director Denny Folsom's administrative line or other line in the center and I will give Phyllis (Ayers) the benefit of being misinformed on this matter," said Smith. "I deny ever having threatened the county with litigation regarding these recordings. I am on record in all conversations with all parties, including the county attorney, that this is nothing more than a personnel matter for the county manager to address with Mr. Folsom."
Smith also denied using any recordings to alter the outcome of the recording contract or any other contract with the county.
He acknowledged there is a GBI investigation ongoing and said he will speak with investigators.
"I have had one conversation with a GBI investigator in late January," said Smith. "I was very clear in that conversation that I would cooperate and that I was just as interested in speaking with him as he was with me and I look forward to having the opportunity to have that conversation with him and bring this matter to a close."
Smith said he and Gunby Communications look forward to putting this matter behind them as soon as possible.
"I take my personal reputation and the reputation of my employer, Gunby Communications, very seriously," said Smith. "I deny that I have done anything wrong legally or ethically and that I continue to take the necessary measures to protect myself and my employer. Gunby Communications has experienced an excellent working relationship with the county for many years. We have worked very closely with the two previous 911 directors and continue to have excellent relationships with the other county departments. We look forward to closing this chapter and continuing to provide service to the county and its residents."
County commissioners said they will re-visit the issue of purchasing equipment after the investigation is complete and they have a finding back from the District Attorney's office and the GBI.

Motorized Steampunk Tank- The JL421 Badonkadonk Land Cruiser!
The "donk" as it's called, is an actual motorized tank-like vehicle with a top speed of 40mph, music, lights, seats multiple people, is a little narrower than a golf cart and is powered by a 12 volt battery that charges up for a full day of driving fun. (It is not street legal in most areas.) With steampunk-like looks, it's a vehicle of which Jules Verne would be proud. Armored sides, mesh stainless steel windows, rubber skirt, and lights that turn it into a part vehicle in the dark. The JL421 Badonkadonk was designed by NAO Design and costs $20,000.00 USD. and is available to order.

The drama behind the "children overboard" inquiry hits the stage, reports Justin Norrie.
Student theatre tends to be uneven, although some recurring qualities lend it a sense of constancy.
Anyone who has been dragged to a university production will recall its most familiar features: the perennial NIDA-knockback whose emotional expression ranges from hysterical to suicidal, the limp leading male, the ochre-smeared nude chorus.
Against this consideration, the spectre of a trip to the University of Sydney's Rex Cramphorn Studio to discuss A Certain Maritime Incident (CMI), a political satire based on the children overboard inquiry, looms like a leaden sky.
"No, actually, we're not a student theatre group - the department has offered us the space to rehearse in so students can watch us as part of their degree," says Version 1.0's director, producer, actor and all-round main man, David Williams.
Quite. In fact, so thoroughly respectable are this lot that Senator Andrew Bartlett, leader of the Australian Democrats and participant in the Senate select committee inquiry at the centre of the production, has contacted them about the show.
"His office sent an email saying he wanted to come, could he have an invitation to the show," says group member Stephen Klinder.
Version 1.0 is a professional theatre company made up of old friends from the University of Western Sydney, with a few new acquaintances thrown in.
The troupe has focused its attentions on edgy, big-theme fare since its founding in 1998. So when Sydney University lecturer Dr Paul Dwyer sidled up to Williams last year with a few musings about the "children overboard" farrago, he immediately piqued the latter's keen sense of social justice.
"The idea behind our name is that you should never buy Version 1.0 software because it's got a lot of bugs in it," says Williams.
"The idea being that we'd work through the operating system of the Australian body politic and iron out all the problems and wrongs that are perpetrated.
"We wanted to tackle the major themes, look at what was being done in the name of Australians here because, frankly, in this case there was some very, very bad stuff going on."
Williams contends that the children overboard Senate inquiry was never aimed at investigating the nature of and motivations for allegations of child abuse against asylum seekers.
It was an opportunistic political stunt, stripped of legitimacy by a stew of soporific jargon and exasperating bureaucracy.
Therein lay the problem facing Version 1.0.
"How do you make an interesting script out of this?" says Williams, bending unsteadily.
As he stands to one side, he reveals a flying buttress of ring-bound files and colourful Post-It notes - more than 2200 pages all up.
Some of the group claim to have read large swathes of the stuff. Others happily concede they didn't waste their time.
Williams maintains the transcript of the multi-million-dollar Senate inquiry is perfect for the stage.
"The senators accuse each other of being thespians; they all accuse each other of grandstanding and doing over-the-top performances," he says.
"One particular day they're all talking about theatricality and rehearsal of testimony. It seemed ripe for a theatrical work.
"Now, of course, we're actually not doing any of that bit.
"We're enacting the theatricality, so we don't need to talk about the theatricality of the inquiry. And besides, there's a lot to choose from.
"As it's often been said, this could be called CMI Part 1, because you could certainly come back and do a lot more."
At about 90 minutes, CMI is a thorough depiction of a parliamentary tussle played out between six Federal senators, lightened by the odd change of scenery.
It isn't theatre verite, nor a "dry rendering of the sort of talk you usually hear from pollies", says Williams.
Rather, it's an articulation of the thoughts left unspoken in the inquiry, an identification of the faceless asylum seekers, victims of two-party political scrummaging, who exist only as acronyms.
"One of the most interesting things in the inquiry is that the asylum seekers are never given a chance to defend themselves,"
says Williams.
"They can't face the inquiry because it's 'outside the terms of reference'.
"Instead, they're known as SUNCs [Suspected Unauthorised Non-Citizens], UAs [Unauthorised Arrivals], PIIs [Potential Illegal Immigrants] and UBAs [Unauthorised Boat Arrivals]."
As various members of Version 1.0 point out, the performance features many darkly comic moments despite its weighty, worthy subject matter. It's an act of "public outrage", but it's also a "lot of fun".
Everything in the action is anchored by one voice of reason.
"The Liberal senators behave shockingly, they stonewall and deny and waste time, but the Labor Party doesn't care about the asylum seekers, it just wants to embarrass the government," says Williams.
"Stuck in the middle you have Senator Bartlett, who really is the only decent person in this."

DAVID BECKHAM. The league's highest paid player, by far, is starting to contribute to the Los Angeles rebound season. After missing the playoffs three seasons in a row (two with Beckham), it looks set to cruise into the postseason after a 2-0 win over Toronto FC. Beckham scored the first goal for the Galaxy and nicely helped set up the second, along with Landon Donovan, for Edson Buddle, whose return to fitness and form bodes well for Coach Bruce Arena's squad.
404. The Seattle Sounders have now gone more than six hours (404 minutes) without scoring a goal at home. On Saturday, they disappointed a crowd of 32,719 in a scoreless tie against Chiva USA, despite playing a man up for the last 29 minutes after the ejection of Marcelo Saragosa.
CONOR CASEY. The Colorado Rapids, in their bid for a playoff spot, have the luxury of playing the hapless San Jose Earthquakes (last place in the West) twice in one week. But in their first meeting, the Rapids could manage only a 1-1 tie, thanks to Casey's stoppage-time penalty kick. The goal extended Casey's lead among the league's leading scorers to 14 goals.
10,979. The turnout at Giants Stadium for the Red Bulls on Friday lowered their season average to 11,070, which means they're headed for their worst attendance average in club history, dating back to when the franchise was launched as the MetroStars in 1996. John Wolyniec's second-half goal equalized the Revs' go-ahead goal by Sainey Nyassi.
BRIAN CHING. The Houston forward scored in the 2nd minute against Real Salt Lake and teammate Geoff Cameron scored three minutes later in what was only the seventh time in league history that a team scored twice in the first five minutes of a game. Ching was ejected in the in the 82nd minute for serious foul play. By then, Houston had pulled off a 3-2 win, Brad Davis, who assisted on Houston's first two goals, having scored the gamewinner after Kyle Beckerman and Yura Movsisyan scored for Salt Lake.
JIMMY CONRAD. The Kansas City defender rebounded from miscues that led to both of FC Dallas' goals and scored the gamewinner of the Wizards' 3-2 win to keep his team with a shot at the playoffs. Conrad scored on a diving header after Dallas keeper Dario Salas slapped out a backward header from his defender George John. VIDEO
PETER LOWRY. The 23-year-old midfielder, in just his fifth start of the season, scored both of Chicago's goals in a 2-2 tie with defending champ Columbus, which got its late equalizer on a Guillermo Barros Schelotto penalty kick. Barros Schelotto also scored the first goal of the comeback, upping the 2008 league MVP's scoring total to 12 goals.
