So it would appear to not be XFS related at all, and more of an emacs build issue. Can you check out a build on another fs on a box which does not have emacs installed already? You could just rename your emacs binary rather than deinstall. Steve -- Steve Lord voice: +1-651-683-3511 Principal Engineer, Filesystem Software email: lord@xxxxxxx

Many of New Zealand's significant economic, environmental and social challenges are directly related to energy. These include business productivity; energy security; household needs and energy poverty; the opportunities from energy technologies; energy efficiency; demand-side management; future transport systems; and an increasing global expectation of greenhouse gas reductions. This complex web of inter-related challenges requires a strong research base to allow energy users and policy makers to make well informed long-term decisions, and to help households and industry to have access to a world leading energy system and energy technologies.
It is in this space, representing NZ energy research providers that NERI operates. NERI's purpose is to: encourage high quality energy research focused on NZ's medium-term needs, helping that to be well co-ordinated and linked with potential users, and to encourage the uptake of that research, whether commercially, by communities, or policy makers.

Thank you Sid.
Hey Shawn, When in Reduced functionality mode its possible to bring the entire desktop up aswell...
1. Click on Access your computer with reduced functionality.
-This will open Internet Explorer.
2. press alt and click File > open and type explorer.exe
3. click OK when asked if IE can open the file in a new window
4. then click Run on the File Download Window
You then have access to the entire desktop and all the programs/files...Just dont close the activation Window and you can keep using the entire desktop for awile.
Thank you Steven.
Does not work. After the rearm command this is what it says: C:\Windows\system32\slmgr.vbs<303, 9> <null>: 0xC004E017
Please I need help, my computer was working just fine yesterday and I have a real key. I have vista home premium 32-bit. My email is <EMAIL ADDRESS REMOVED by Brink> if anybody has any advice. When I tried to use my key to activate it gives this error code: 0xC004F050 When I tried to activate through internet it says the key is already in use (by the same computer) When I tried phone activation the field in step 2 where there should be number codes in empty.
Hi JaakkoA,
Double check to make sure that you entered the product key number in correctly.
From: How to troubleshoot Volume Activation error codes on Windows Vista-based computers
Hope this helps,Error code 0xC004F050
When you try to use KMS, a KMS client, or a MAK to activate one or more computers, you may receive the following error message:
The Software Licensing Service reported that the product key is invalid.
This issue may occur if the KMS key is not entered correctly. Also, this issue may occur if the key for a beta version of the operating system has been entered when you are using the release version of the operating system.
To work around this issue, install the appropriate KMS key on the corresponding version of Windows. Verify that the key is entered correctly. If you copy and then paste the key, make sure that em dashes (—) are not substituted for en dashes (-) in the key.
I have checked and tried my product key for like about 20 times but the activation does not work and I get that error always. I have used this computer half year. This same thing has happened to me a few times before but in the first time the product key worked and next time after I restarted my computer the activation requirement was mysteriously gone. I have the real version and key but it does not work, I have never had any beta version.
Why can't I rearm my activation period??
And is there any good reason why in the phone activation thing all I see is the blank field where there should be numbers?
Nothing seems to work I hate this. Vista shut me out of my own computer.

You might try doing a System Restore using a restore point dated before this happened, then check to make sure that your Vista is activated before you enter the Reduced Functionality Mode again.

Paramount Pictures Releases 100th Anniversary iPad App Looking Back
by Alex Billington
January 2, 2012
Source: iTunes
As it's now 2012, that means it is official Paramount Pictures' 100th Anniversary, as they officially began back in 1912. We featured their brand new logo a few weeks ago, but now they've launched an app for the iPad, called simply Paramount100, that takes a look back at their magnificent history, awards and accolades, and more. It's a pretty impressive app, as we've seen a lot of them popping up recently. They've got features like "100 Years in Pictures", with the ability to watch some of the films "now", their Academy Awards, and a Studio Tour. Give it at a look if you have an iPad, another cool app for film geeks / cinephiles.
Click on either screenshot below for the iTunes download link, or search "Paramount100" in the App Store:
From the official description: The year 2012 marks Paramount Pictures' 100th Anniversary and this 100 Years of Movie Magic app is an exploration of the studio's incredibly rich and storied history. From Paramount's modest beginning in 1912 with Queen Elizabeth to Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol (in theaters now!), the app provides a fresh and innovative opportunity to experience your favorite films by flipping through never-before-seen photos, watching memorable film clips, and listening to timeless music scores. This unique keepsake also includes an overview of Paramount's story, a Studio Tour and a specially designed Scene it? game – all of which you can share with your friends and family via Facebook. How fun!
We love cool apps like this, so we'll keep featuring any good movie ones that get released. Sound good?

Defense Secretary Robert Gates, a Republican who will be staying on in Democrat Barack Obama's Cabinet, will be the "designated successor" on Inauguration Day, White House press secretary Dana Perino announced this morning:
"In order to ensure continuity of government, Defense Secretary Robert Gates has been designated by the outgoing administration, with the concurrence of the incoming administration, to serve as the designated successor during Inauguration Day, Tuesday, January 20th."
USA TODAY White House correspondent David Jackson says that means Gates will not be at the inauguration -- just as one member of the Cabinet stays away from State of the Union addresses so that in case of a catastrophe, someone is available to keep the government running.
David's journalism career spans three decades, including coverage of five presidential elections, the Oklahoma City bombing, the 2000 Florida presidential recount and the 9/11 terrorist attacks. He has covered the White House for USA TODAY since 2005. His interests include history, politics, books, movies and college football -- not necessarily in that order. More about David

The Pinal County Sheriff's Department says it will ask for murder charges against two Phoenix residents after a man with heat exhaustion died after being found in a truck with other immigrants.
The man who died was among eight heat-exhaustion victims found Sunday in the back of a truck parked at an Interstate 10 gas station at Picacho Peak northwest of Tucson, the office said Wednesday.
The office was notified early Wednesday that the victim, a man from Mexico, had died at a hospital, sheriff's spokesman Tim Gaffney said. The victim's identity is being withheld pending notification of his family.
The sheriff's office will request a felony murder charge be filed against the driver, Nathan Lamb, 25, and his passenger and girlfriend, Elizabeth Kay, 25, Gaffney said.
They already were being held on multiple counts of charges of human smuggling, aggravated assault and endangerment.
Gaffney said he didn't know whether Lamb and Kay have attorneys but said the court likely will appoint defense lawyers for them.
Information provided by the Border Patrol and those in the truck indicated they had entered the country illegally, Gaffney said.
The people in the truck said they were traveling to Phoenix after being picked up in Douglas by a man who was driving the U-Haul truck and a woman who was the front-seat passenger, the sheriff's office said.
During the ride, many in the group of eight became severely dehydrated and overheated in triple-digit temperatures inside the truck, according to authorities.
Someone called 911 after seeing people stagger out of the vehicle when it stopped.
Lamb and Kay told detectives that they heard the people in the back of the truck pounding and banging from inside the cargo area but were afraid to stop right away, the Sheriff's Office said.
When they did stop and then saw the condition of the people in the truck, Lamb and Kay fled, the Sheriff's Office said.
Sheriff Paul Babeu said previously that the temperature in the back of the truck may have exceeded 180 degrees.
According to the Sheriff's Office, the people being transported each paid $5,000 to be driven to Phoenix.

New Student Orientation Video
Our students are hilarious. What better way to welcome new students but with a stereotypical "how-to" informational video that might be straight from the 1950's? What's more - it was 100% produced by current students. We just couldn't stop laughing. Enjoy!
Proof that this wasn't made in the 1950's? Well, it's wide screen, for one thing, but in the 1950's it would have been Multnomah School of the Bible. However, they did manage to get our old trusty motto in there: "If it's Bible you want, then you want Multnomah!"
Still relevant.

The state of Kentucky's football Class of 2019 is loaded with talent.
The University of Louisville football staff has already offered at least seven in-state prospects from the '19 class and have kept in contact with a few others in recent months.
On Saturday prior to the U of L spring game, several '19 prospects said the U of L coaches pulled the in-state '19 targets into a room together and began by sending a message.
"We want you all," Manual athlete Aidan Robbins said they were told.
Added Christian Academy quarterback Austin Carr: "The coaches told us we would be the guys."
Carr, who doesn't have an offer from U of L yet, and Christian Academy wide receiver/defensive back Milton Wright were prospects on campus yesterday from the '19 class.
Robbins was also in attendance along with Glasgow offensive lineman Tanner Bowles.
South Warren lineman Jacob Lacey had a baseball game and showed up late, but was still given the same message.
"They love the class of 2019," Robbins said. "They're wanting us to team up at Louisville and they really think we can start something great."
Other top '19 targets from the state who have been offered by U of L are: Moore defensive end JJ Weaver, Trinity linebacker Stephen Herron, Doss linebacker Shawn'kel Knight-Goff and Scott County offensive lineman Bryan Hudson.
Doss defensive end Ricky Barber and Knox Central running back Adam Renfro are others who have not been offered.

'So You Think' winner says show will be with her for life
Eliana Girard doesn't just think she can dance: she knows it now, having won a dance reality show. Yet, she might have to pinch herself as she travels throughout North America with the "So You Think You Can Dance" Tour 2012, which comes to the Benedum Center on Sunday.
"It's still hard for me to grasp," says Girard, 21, a native of West Palm Beach, Fla. "It's like an out-of-body experience. … It's still really crazy to me, to realize this happened.
"After the show every day, I practically cry," Girard says. "It really is amazing, all the blessings. ... I want to give (God) the glory."
The "So You Think You Can Dance" live show features the Top 10 dancers from the hit Fox show, which finished its ninth season. Girard is the female winner, and Chehon Wespi-Tschopp is the male winner. The two winners and the other finalists — including Audrey Case, Cole Horibe, Cyrus Spencer, George Lawrence II, Lindsay Arnold, Tiffany Maher, Will Thomas and Witney Carson — will dance some of the most popular numbers from the Emmy-nominated television show, along with some original pieces choreographed just for the tour.
Girard's specialty is contemporary ballet, which she calls contemporary with pointe shoes. She did a stint with Cirque du Soleil before competing on "So You Think You Can Dance" and expects to return someday to the acrobatic circus. Now, Girard anticipates a possible move after the tour to Los Angeles, where she hopes to pursue music videos and other commercial gigs.
"This experience is something that I'll take with me for a lifetime," she says. "I just hope from here that I can begin to still grow. I feel that this is just a beginning."
Girard's life has become a whirlwind since the show ended and the 30-city tour began in October. She says the fans' fervor has energized her and shown her how dance impacts people's lives.
"It's shown me how important dance is in a community," Girard says. "It kind of opened my eyes and made me fall in love with dance all over again.
"We've gotten (communication) from many people saying it brought an inspiration into their life," she says. "Even those who aren't dancers … you know that you're inspiring others. It's the most incredible feeling … to know other people feel the way you do about dance.

By JOEL STOTTRUP
Princeton Union-Eagle
There hasn't been a riot inside the Mille Lacs County jail for decades, but the Mille Lacs County Sheriff's Department is adding a pepper ball weapon to the department's arsenal in case a jail riot should occur.
Sheriff Brent Lindgren received the Mille Lacs County Board's approval on March 20 to purchase the pepper ball equipment and materials for two employeesat a cost of $1,495.
"It will bring you to your knees," said Lindgren about the pepper ball spray, explaining that the its purpose would be to quell a riot or out-of control situation inside the Mille Lacs County Jail. By having the pepper spray, correctional officers could get control to move inmates to various locations within the jail, Lindgren told the board.
The expenditure would include training of two department employees who would then return and train other staff members. The vendor is Pepper Ball Technologies and the material will include two custom pepper ball launchers. 180 inert training rounds, 90 10X hot pepper rounds, one scuba tank and one air fill adapter, as well as miscellaneous other pieces of equipment.
Jail staff and/or any deputy going into the jail space to use the pepper ball spray would be wearing air mask equipment. Training will be on how to launch the equipment and maintenance.
For the full story, see the Thursday, March 29 print edition of the Times.

By Staff Sgt. Marcos Alices (Joint Sustainment Command-Afghanistan PAO)October 10, 2009
KANDAHAR AIRFIELD, Afghanistan -- Success in the war in Afghanistan depends on winning the confidence of the people. U.S. forces attempt to achieve this goal by increasing reconstruction activities and changing the way U.S. troops interact with the Afghan population.
Joint Sustainment Command-Afghanistan is reaching out to the community as they establish only the second humanitarian assistance yard in Afghanistan.
"The military version of the Red Cross [...] we are providing needed supplies to communities around the region," said Spc. Antonio V. Charles, a JSC-A humanitarian assistance specialist from Newark, N.J.
The program started in 2005 at Bagram Airfield. The yard's purpose is to provide timely disaster and emergency relief to local Afghan communities. Poverty, famine, droughts and years of war have created a need for such a facility. It is a storage and distribution center for humanitarian aid supplies such as food, clothing, school and medical supplies, and certain household items.
"[The humanitarian assistance yard] will allow many Afghan families whose homes have been destroyed or damaged to stay put and rebuild instead of evacuate," said Sgt 1st Class Corey L. Garner, a JSC-A humanitarian assistance noncommissioned officer from Aliceville, Ala. "By staying, they can continue to use local merchants and services and build the community back up, and possibly bring in opportunistic businesses."
The Kandahar Airfield humanitarian assistance yard was initiated early this year in an effort to efficiently distribute supplies. The yard will support the southern and western regions of Afghanistan while the Bagram facility supports the northern and eastern regions.The yard here is expected to begin supply distribution Oct 15.
"It [the humanitarian assistance yard] creates a better working relationship with the U.S. and Afghanistan," said Garner. "It promotes economic growth. It shows that our presence here is far more than just one of conflict but of peace."
Several U.S. agencies work closely with local communities. They will identify the needs of the community and submit a request to the humanitarian assistance yard, which will coordinate, transport and deliver items. The yard's presence here has provided jobs and opportunities for the locals. Afghans will be hired to help operate the humanitarian assistance yard and will work side by side with Soldiers. All supplies stored in the yard were purchased through local vendors.
It takes more than just gathering supplies to get the yard up and running. The Soldiers working at the yard built it from the ground up. They had to do everything from conducting an initial site survey to coordinating with vendors. The humanitarian assistance yard can be compared to a warehouse. The Soldiers are responsible for maintaining records and keeping track of inventory.
"It is nice to help the people of Afghanistan and show the people another side of Americans instead of bullets and guns," said Pfc. Timothy J. Fiel, a JSC-A humanitarian assistance specialist from El Paso, Texas.
U.S. forces continue to work to rebuild the infrastructure of Afghanistan with programs such as the humanitarian assistance yard. U.S. forces along with their coalition partners will focus on bringing stability to the country, so it can have the ability to deliver basic services to its population.

Update on State Treatment of EGTRRA's Pension and Retirement Provisions
In an announcement in April 2002, the Department addressed the impact on North Carolina income tax returns of the enactment of the federal Economic Growth and Tax Relief Act of 2001, signed into law by President Bush on June 7, 2001. The act made numerous changes to the pension and retirement provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. North Carolina's individual income tax law is tied to the Internal Revenue Code as it exists on a certain date. On September 30, 2002, legislation was enacted to update the State's reference to the Internal Revenue Code from January 1, 2001 to May 1, 2002. This change means that North Carolina has adopted all of the pension and retirement provisions of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Act of 2001.

'When Protest Becomes Endemic, We Are Flirting With Chaos'
President's address to the nation on the eve of India's 66th Independence Day
My fellow citizens:
It is a great privilege to address, for the first time, my fellow Indians living within our country and in a hundred corners across the globe, on the 65th anniversary of our independence. Words cannot adequately express my gratitude to the people and their representatives for the honour of this high office, even as I am deeply conscious of the fact that the highest honour in our democracy does not lie in any office, but in being a citizen of India, our motherland. We are all equal children before our mother; and India asks each one of us, in whatsoever role we play in the complex drama of nation-building, to do our duty with integrity, commitment and unflinching loyalty to the values enshrined in our Constitution.
2. It is important to remember, on Independence Day, that in the age of empires freedom was never given; it was taken. It was won by a generation of giants, led by a mighty man of destiny, Mahatma Gandhi, who fought with selfless, unflinching conviction against the mightiest power in history, with a moral force that transformed political thought and whose reverberations echo in great events all around us today. If the rise of European colonisation began in 18th century India, then the rallying cry of "Jai Hind!" also signalled its end in 1947. The final call to victory, "Jai Hind!" was given by Subhas Chandra Bose, fondly known to every Indian as "Netaji". Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru, Baba Saheb Ambedkar, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, Sarojini Naidu and many others charted the roadmap of independent India. These extraordinary men and women sacrificed their todays for our tomorrows. That tomorrow has come, and there is a question we must ask ourselves: have we honoured the great vision of these stalwarts, as a nation and as a society?
3. I was a toddler when Netaji, as Rashtrapati of the 51st Session of Indian National Congress in Haripura, on the banks of the river Tapti, reminded us that "our chief national problems are eradication of poverty, illiteracy and disease". His speech echoed through my home, as it did through millions of others. My father was a freedom fighter and through those long years when freedom seemed an illusion, we were sustained by faith in ourselves, in our leaders, in the strength of non-violence, in the courage of Indians liberated from fear. But we knew then, as we do now, that freedom must mean both bread and dreams.
4. Netaji and Nehruji believed that India could seize the future by an application of synthesis, samyavada, of what might seem on surface to be implacable opposites. They believed that free India would become, by example, an alternative model for a post-colonial world through economic equity and a social revolution inspired by harmony between communities that had been misled into hostility. Propelled by freedom of faith, gender equality and economic justice for all, India will become a modern nation. Minor blemishes cannot cloak the fact that India is becoming such a modern nation: no faith is in danger in our country, and the continuing commitment to gender equality is one of the great narratives of our times.
My fellow citizens:
5. I am not a pessimist; for me, the glass is always half full, rather than half empty. I would go to the extent of saying that the glass of modern India is more than half full. Our productive working class; our inspiring farmers, who have lifted a famine-wrecked land to food-surplus status, our imaginative industrialist entrepreneurs, whether in the private or public sector; our intellectuals, our academics and our political class have knit together a modern nation that has leapt, within mere decades, across many centuries in economic growth and progressive social legislation.
6. We cannot appreciate how far we have travelled, until we understand from where we started in 1947. As Jawaharlal Nehru pointed out so often, in his speeches and prose, India was not a poor country when our independence was snatched away. No one, I may add, travels thousands of miles to conquer a poor country. Statistics published by contemporary international scholars are proof for sceptics. In 1750, seven years before the fateful battle of Plassey, India had 24.5% of World Manufacturing Output while United Kingdom had only 1.9%. In other words, one in every four goods on the world market was manufactured in India. By 1900, India had been left with only 1.7% of World Manufacturing Output and Britain had risen to 18.5%. The western industrial revolution was in its incipient stages in the 18th century, but even in this regard India slipped from 7 to 1 in per capita industrialisation in that period, while Britain vaulted from 10 to 100. Between 1900 and 1947 India's economic growth was an annual average of 1%. From such depths we climbed, first, to 3% growth, and then took a quantum leap forward: today, despite two great international crises that rocked the world and some domestic dips, we have posted an average growth rate of more than 8% over the last seven years.
7. If our economy has achieved critical mass, then it must become a launching pad for the next leap. We need a second freedom struggle; this time to ensure that India is free for ever from hunger, disease and poverty. As my pre-eminent predecessor Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, speaking from this platform on the 18th anniversary of freedom, said, "Economic progress is one of the tests of democracy."
8. If progress falls behind rising aspirations, particularly of the young, rage will manifest itself. We are a nation that is becoming younger both in age and spirit; this is an opportunity as well as a challenge. The young thirst for knowledge that will lift their skills; and for opportunity that will put India on the fast track to the first world. They have the character; they need the chance. Education is the seed; and economy is the fruit. Provide good education; disease, hunger and poverty will recede. As I said in my acceptance speech, our motto must be: All for knowledge and knowledge for all. Vision cannot be an open-ended vista; it must be focused on our youth.
My fellow citizens:
9. Notwithstanding the tremendous pressure of an adverse external environment, our economy today is more resilient and confident. Two decades of steady economic reforms have contributed to improvement in average income and consumption levels in both rural and urban areas. There is new found dynamism in some of the most backward areas bringing them into national economic mainstream. Yet there are several gaps that need to be bridged. Green revolution has to be extended to the eastern region of our country. Creation of high quality infrastructure has to be fast tracked. Education and health services have to reach the last man at the earliest. Much has been done, a lot more remains to be done.
10. The monsoon has played truant this year. Large areas of our country are in the grip of drought, some others are devastated by floods. Inflation, particularly food inflation, remains a cause of worry, While our food availability remains healthy, we cannot forget the plight of those who made this possible even in a lean year; our farmers. They have stood by the nation in its need; the nation must stand by them in their distress.
11. I do not believe that there is any inherent contradiction in protecting our environment and economic development. As long as we heed Gandhiji's great lesson: there is sufficient in the world for man's need but not for man's greed, we are safe. We must learn to live in harmony with nature. Nature cannot be consistent; we must be able to conserve her bounty during the many seasons of plenty so that we are not bereft during the occasional bout of scarcity.
12. Anger against the bitter pandemic of corruption is legitimate, as is the protest against this plague that is eroding the capability and potential of our nation. There are times when people lose their patience but it cannot become an excuse for an assault on our democratic institutions.
13. Institutions are the visible pillars of our Constitution, and if they crack then the idealism of our Constitution cannot hold. They are the interface between principles and the people. Our institutions may have suffered from the weariness of time; the answer is not to destroy what has been built, but to re-engineer them so that they become stronger than before. Institutions are the guardians of our liberty.
14. The vigilance on our frontiers has to be matched with vigilance within; we must restore the credibility of those areas of our polity, judiciary, executive and legislature where complacency, exhaustion or malfeasance may have clogged delivery. The people have a right to express their discontent. But we must also understand that legislation cannot be wrenched away from the legislature or justice from the judiciary.
15. When authority becomes authoritarian, democracy suffers; but when protest becomes endemic, we are flirting with chaos. Democracy is a shared process. We all win or lose together. Democratic temper calls for dignity of behaviour and tolerance of contrary views. Parliament will live by its own calendar and rhythm. Sometimes that rhythm sounds a bit atonal; but in a democracy there is always judgement day, an election. Parliament is the soul of the people, the "Atman" of India. We challenge its rights and duties at our peril.
16. I say this not in a spirit of admonition, but as a plea for greater understanding of the existential issues that lurk behind the mask of the mundane. Democracy is blessed with a unique opportunity for redress of grievances through the great institution of accountability - free elections.
17. Old fires that threaten the stability of our nation have not been fully doused; the ash continues to smoulder. It is particularly painful for me to witness the violence in Assam. Our minorities need solace, understanding and protection from aggression. Violence is not an option; violence is an invitation to greater violence. Concrete attempts have been made to heal the wounds of Assam, including the Assam accord conceived by our young and beloved former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi. We should revisit them, and adapt them to present conditions in the spirit of justice and national interest. We need peace for a new economic surge that eliminates the competitive causes of violence.
18. It is a fact of our geopolitical environment that some problems transcend borders. SAARC was created 27 years ago to find solutions through dialogue, and by mutual cooperation create the rapid economic growth that is the only long-term answer to problems like migration and uneven development. SAARC must acquire vigour to fulfil its mandate.
19. The SAARC should be a major instrument in the common war against terrorists. Great success is possible by international cooperation. All SAARC nations must cooperate to bring to justice those who believe in mayhem against innocents. There is no other way towards peace on the subcontinent.
20. I am proud of our brave armed forces and our valiant police forces, who have done so much, at such great personal risk, to curb this menace of terrorism. It is their vigilance which has prevented more havoc. If we sleep in peace it is because they are awake and vigilant in the desolation of desert and mountain and forest; and in the vast loneliness of the seas. I salute their commitment and their patriotism. It is heartening that the armed forces not only guarantee our peace, but also produce medal winners at Olympics. I congratulate all who have done their nation proud at the recently concluded Games, by winning as well as by participating. The number of trophies may not be too large but it is a remarkable improvement upon the last count, Four years later, when I hope to address you again, I am sure, we will celebrate a medals spring.
My fellow citizens:
21. If there is one man in history whose name is synonymous with peace, then it is Gandhiji, the architect of our independence. India is a land of plenty inhibited by poverty; India has an enthralling, uplifting civilization that sparkles not only in our magnificent art, but also in the enormous creativity and humanity of our daily life in city and village. When Indira Gandhi reached for the stars, she believed that this would be within the grasp of India in just another generation. But there is neither a present nor a future, except in a climate and culture of national unity and brotherhood.
My fellow citizens:
Let us leave behind the way of hatred, violence and anger;
Let us put aside our petty quarrels and factions.
Let us work together for our nation with the devotion of a child towards a mother.
Let us repose our faith in this invocation from Upanishads:
May God Protect us.
May God Nourish us.
May we Work Together with Vigour and Energy.
May our Studies be Brilliant.
May there be no Hostility amongst us.
May there be Peace Peace Peace.

I feel Mrs Patil was better then him.
This president fails to notice that it is
When political corruption Endemic, We Are Flirting With Chaos'.
He fails to understand because until recently he was also part of this loot.
MMS responsible for 1.8 Lac crore. Even shame word will be feeling shameful.
He never wishes that we catch fish like MMS and Chidambram.Aug 20, 2012 12:22 AM , ,
Clearly out President is worried that the restless populace is making life difficult for the ruling coalition.His advice is 'don't begin protests at the drop of a hat'; better wait to assess the consequences for the 'sarcar'. Clearly chaos is not his cup of tea, and a country cannot progress if chaos prevails. The protests by the Left against inflation, price rise etc. is OK.What cannot be tolerated is the one against 'corruption' as it opens the 'aam admi's' eyes to the cancer in our society.That the aam admi suffers the most is neither here or there.He should put up with it for the sake of order and peace.This is our numero uno citizen's way of showing his debt of gratitude to the grand old party which he has served unswervingly for some four decades.Just wait till 2014 to see him in his true colours and full potential.Aug 18, 2012 09:45 PM Dr.V.Mahadevan, Chennai, India
and CAG is provoking these endemic protests by tabling report after report .. whats afterall 1.8 lakh crore loss to the nation per UPA minister .. democracy is more important and we should be willing to pay the price to keep the BJP ( and Modi ) at bay .Aug 17, 2012 05:27 PM , ,
The tragedy is, we have to listen to one more such speech in 2013…Aug 17, 2012 09:12 AM , ,
I would say that the new president's memory is failing him.
"Words cannot adequately express my gratitude to the people and their representatives for the honour of this high office".........methinks the honorable president has forgotten to mention the real factor in his elevation to presidency, the name of his benefactor
"Institutions are the visible pillars of our Constitution, and if they crack then the idealism of our Constitution cannot hold" .......the president has forgotten to add that the first assault on the Constitution took place during the tenure of Mrs. Indira Gandhi
"The vigilance on our frontiers has to be matched with vigilance within; we must restore the credibility of those areas of our polity, judiciary, executive and legislature where complacency, exhaustion or malfeasance may have clogged delivery"......the president admits political malfeasance and the need for vigilance within, yet he has forgotten his sterling role in consistently stonewalling all attempts at providing the country with a Lok Pal
"When authority becomes authoritarian, democracy suffers; but when protest becomes endemic, we are flirting with chaos"......the president forgets to apply his formidable intellect to real question ; Why are protests becoming endemic? Is it not because the political class as a whole has failed the common man?
"Violence is not an option; violence is an invitation to greater violence"....the President has probably forgotten to mention that he was referring to the perpetrators of the recent acts of violence in Mumbai?Aug 16, 2012 07:17 PM , ,
Pratibha Patil looks brilliant in front of this dud president.Aug 16, 2012 01:28 PM S.S.Nagaraj, Bangalore, India
To protest is a democratic right, the Head of State talking against protests is like rubbishing democracy .... The fact has to do with the fact that he is not elected democratically (directly) but by an indirect system that lets parties instruct the electoral college with directions to vote (thus rendering even that semblance of indirect democracy inactive) .....Aug 16, 2012 05:18 AM hari, chennai, India
This is our IMPARTIAL President! Still living in shadow of Gandhis. He is concerned about protest from common man but is least bothered about criminals they have got into the same intituitoion which he is talking to save. This is the rut brought in by themselves but now blaming people for it. Mark my words, he is going to bring instability to this nation by favouring Congress in 2014 . We dont want AMUL BABA and he has been brought by Sonia just for that!Aug 16, 2012 02:20 AM , ,
Mr President
Beore you left Finance Ministry you had already destroyed India's econmy beyond recovery and burdned us with back breaking unending inflation .Now you don't want us to cry too via protets ???
Wasn't your Montek Singh who made the norms that who earns Rs 27 and above a day and susequently revised to Rs 25 and above as not a poor ??
Tell me sir can you survive on Rs 25 per day ??
What more chaos can hit us ??Aug 15, 2012 05:31 PM a k ghai, mumbai, India
Omita Paul, a novice to economics was the economic advisor to finance minister Pranab. What can be the shape of indian economics? If enumerated, he was active associate of all scams that have rattled the country so far. Like the criminals fleeing to tax havens after serious damage to the economics, he after his active association with all scamsters has fled to the rashtrapathi bhavan to immunise himself from all the criminal charges. We indians are bloody fools. This man went along with two other ministers went to air port to receive BABA RAMDEV for negotiating for support to congress before reaching Anna. Shamelessly he is talking about endemic anger about the corruption. He appreciates the armed forces but his ministry was against a parliamentary panel recommendation of ONE RANK ONE PENSION and now in order to drag it over years, a new committee withour representing the forces is formed. What a lot of shameful performances of this government snuffing the eyes of public, misleading them on this independence day! Will he correct all the blunders after becoming head of the nationa?Aug 15, 2012 02:01 PM adithyan, chennai, India

Today I was stretching my right hamstring. A standard stretch, one leg tucked in and the other extended, then lean forward. As I brought my face down to my knee, the upper right side of my abdomen tightened up and became hard. It was very uncomfortable, and fairly hard. It went away after a few seconds, but when I stretch my abs that area feels sore. This has happened about three times now, the last was a year ago. Any thoughts on what this is?
No announcement yet.

You could very well be pregnant ????? LOL"never let the truth get in the way of a good story "
...small steps....
yep I picked up on the dude thing. Just an old Gwamma trying to be funny !!!!!!!!!
.....and one day it might be possible ! look out boyz"never let the truth get in the way of a good story "
...small steps....
The way you describe it, it could be your quadratus lumborum muscle, typically exercised in side planks. but i know how "upper right side" you felt it, so it also might not be this muscle. If it hurts more and is sore, you could try some mild heatProud Bangmaid since August 2009
I have experienced the same thing... it is a muscle cramp, imho.Female, age 51, 5' 9"
SW - 183 (Jan 22, 2012), CW - 159, GW - healthy.
Met my 2012 goals by losing 24 pounds.
2013 goals are to get fit and strong!
There are other stretches you can do for hamstrings. There are lying ones; there are even partenered ones.
I think it's an interesting reaction. I wonder if you're doing the stretch quite right. I also wondered if your stomach muscles might be over-tight. But I don't know.
You might ask Dr. Stark for an opinion on this one. His book on stretching is very informative, and he does take questions on his website -- see the section "Blog and Q & A":
Dr Steven D. Stark - Podiatry, Orthotics, Sports Medicine - Vancouver, White Rock — Blog
Probably a good site for any primal to bookmark.
Or you could forget the hamstring stretching and try some myofascial release with a foam roller. Lots have people have what they think are tight hammys when in reality, it is the body compensating for something else.
Here's something to try.
Check the angle of hip flexion you can achieve, 85deg is considered 'normal' range of movement. I am often at 70deg on the left leg.
Foam roll your calf from achilles up, rolling up 2 inches and back one inch. Also do the inside and outside of the calf. Work your way up to just below knee.
Then roll over and do the quad from the knee up, again 2" up, 1" back. After 4 cycles, swing the leg laterally each way, to help with the release. Then, deep breath in, flex at the ankle to 90deg keeping pressure on the roller and exhaling.
When you get to the top of the thigh, roll 45 deg to hit the Tensor Fascia Latae muscle, roll that, but rock from side to side after 4 cycles, still do the knee flexion.
You will likely find another 10 -15 deg of hip flexion with the leg straight. So your hamstring are improved without going anywhere near them.
It's an odd thing, but it really works. Kind of proves that other muscles can play a big part in tension in other areas.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
My husband and I applied for change of status based on our marriage, after the interview, which i thing went very well, the immigration officer wrote in my passport" pending I485 section 245 cr6 and gave me receipt which states " your case is being held for file review in order to prepare a decision You will be advised by mail as to a decision on your application. what does that mean? what should I expect?
It is unclear why it was not approved or denied. However, there is an issue that the officer sees. Did your husband enter the U.S. legally? Did he apply for a family or employment petition prior to April 30, 2001? Did you file a 485 Supplement? First, I would need to see if he even qualifies to adjust in the U.S. before looking further.

You should also be aware that in many cases where there is no reason to deny the application, the interviewing officer is relatively new to the job, and as such does not have authority to grant approval of adjustment cases at the interview, before the case is reviewed by a supervisor. There are still a lot of relatively new officers in Section 245 at the New York district office of USCIS, many of whom cannot grant cases without supervisory review, and who must use that boilerplate language to indicate that they could not grant your case on the day of interview - this does not necessarily imply that there is any reason to deny your case.
