Jewish Girl of the Week – Alana K.
I am starting law school at Catholic University of America's Columbus School of Law this fall. I am in the Law and Public Policy certificate program, and plan to go into public service, specifically lobbying or governmental affairs. I have worked in governmental affairs for several non-profits and love communicating the organization's message, and the message of its members, to Congress. Of course, there are three LONG years of law school and the bar exam to get through first!
I am a huge foodie–I love cooking, baking, and going out to eat. My favorite restaurant is Zaytinya in Chinatown, which is owned by the famous restauranteur Jose Andres. I went there for the first time about three weeks after I moved to D.C. four years ago, and its just amazing. It is Mediterranean small plates and the flavor combinations are really unique and amazing. There are a few things on the menu that are the best things I've ever eaten. Let me know if you need ordering advice or a companion.
Michigan football is a part of the student experience at UofM. I've been to a lot of awesome games, but my favorite one, hands down, was the Michigan- Ohio State game in November 2003, my freshman year at Michigan. It was the 100th Michigan-OSU game, and we won by two touchdowns and went on to win the Big Ten Championship and go to the Rose Bowl. Late in the 4th quarter, people started passing roses down throughout the student section, and after the game we rushed the field with roses in our mouths. It was unbelievable. Hoping to repeat it this season 🙂 I'm also on the board of the University of Michigan Alumni Association's D.C. Chapter, and we have HUGE game watches every football Saturday. Outside of the Big House (Michigan Stadium for all you non-football fans), it is the best atmosphere you can get. At our D.C. location, Buffalo Billiards, we have over 1,000 Wolverines come out for our big games! Stop by sometime and experience the awesome-ness!
My favorite thing to do for Shabbat is to cook a nice Shabbat dinner and have some of my friends over to eat. I was raised always having a family Shabbat dinner every week, and I try to host a dinner to bring together friends to celebrate the end of the week and relax as often as I can. I make a mean brisket and a great matzo ball soup. Just practicing to be a Jewish mother!
5) You grew up at Jewish camp. Tell us about that.
I started going to Camp Young Judaea Midwest when I was eight. CYJ Midwest is one of the four junior camps of the Young Judaea youth movement, which also includes a senior leadership camp in New York, and Israel programs. I was a camper for nine years, before I spent the summer in Israel with Machon, and then came back as a counselor for three years. Camp, along with my year-round involvement, helped me form my Jewish identity and passion for Israel, and it taught me how to be a leader. I've spent the last three summers coordinating the Day on the Hill program for Young Judaea's senior leadership camp, Tel Yehudah. Each summer, we bring almost 300 campers and staff to Washington, D.C. to meet with advocacy organizations and lobby on 15 different issues ranging from Israel and Iran to LGBT rights. Watching these campers become passionate about their issues and take that passion up to Capitol Hill to lobby Members of Congress is truly amazing and brings my experience with Young Judaea full circle to my life today. Of course, there are also the fun stories of a camper and counselor, but I'll save those for another time…

Speaking before thousands of spectators in central Berlin, he admitted that Europe and America had come to view each other with suspicion and even with derision.
"In Europe, the view that America is part of what has gone wrong in our world, rather than a force to help make it right, has become all too common," he said.
"In America, there are voices that deride and deny the importance of Europe's role in our security and our future".
But he said that "now is time to build new bridges across the globe" with America learning from Germany's environmental leadership, and Germany contributing more to American-led NATO efforts in Afghanistan.
The speech, which has long been trailed as a defining moment of senator Obama's campaign to become US president, was given outside before a host of mostly admiring spectators.
In Berlin, a city that once epitomised Cold War divisions, Obama called for new pragmatism in relations with a resurgent Russia.
"We must reject the Cold War mind-set of the past, and resolve to work with Russia when we can, to stand up for our values when we must, and to seek a partnership that extends across this entire continent," he said.
Instead of division, he called on humanity to unite, across divisions of race, and creed.
"The walls between races and tribes; natives and immigrants; Christian and Muslim and Jew cannot stand," he said. "These now are the walls we must tear down."

Google's Project Fi: what we do (and don't) know
With news breaking that Google is likely working on some sort of MVNO service for Nexus handsets, we've got as many new questions as we had old curiosities. Is Google sidestepping carriers and bringing a network direct to customers? Yes and no. While 'Project Fi' definitely tells us Google has something going on, we don't get a lot of the gritty details. We won't until Google wants us to know about it, either. Still, we wonder if this might just be the coolest thing to come from Google I/O this year.

|RE: Huge tomcat memory footprint
|Thu, 04 Nov 2004 17:32:27 GMT
Hi, Thanks again for your suggestions. I still don't have a good handle on the problem. So please bear with me If I am asking the same questions again. 1. What I have noticed so far is the heap is not growing too much, but the process foot print is growing. I used optimizeit memory profiler to compare snapshots of the heap. I don't see any obvious memory leaks. I need to take a closer look. When I checked this morning, the heap size allocated was 80MB and heap used was 57MB (reported by optimizeit). But the memory sizes reported by solairs pmap command is Size RSS Shared Private 1173.45 MB 608.125 MB 15.125 MB 593 MB I understand that the process footprint includes other data and would grow as JVM itself grows. But is it normal that it grows to 1173 MB in a matter of few hours. Ofcourse, optimizeit itself has overheads and adds to the process size. But I have seen it grow to 2.5 GB in two days without optimizeit when I was doing some stress tests. I read in one of the solaris virtual memory architecture design paper, that virtual address space of a process on solaris is 4GB. What will happen when the JVM process size reaches 4GB? I guess my confusion is due to the lack of my understanding on how java manages memory and how it relates to the OS-level memory management. Are there any documents or white papers that discuss this kind of issues? 2. I see that GC is running, reclaiming memory periodically. But I noticed that after a while GC is running more frequently and each run takes a substantial amount of time (in one instance GC took about 14 secs). This may affect the throughput, but will it have any impact on the memory? 3. I read somewhere that if you use reflection, the reflective data structures (whatever that means) also contribute to the memory footprint. It sounded as though these are not part of the heap. So if we are creating instances of Method, Constructor, etc, are they not allocated in the heap? We are using reflection heavily.

In his largest effort yet to fundamentally transform America's justice system, globalist billionaire George Soros has launched an all-out attack on America's favorite sheriff in Arizona – Joe Arpaio.
It is a war between the man who promotes open borders against the sheriff who has been tough on enforcing America's immigration laws.
Politico reports that George Soros has now contributed $2 million to the Maricopa Strong PAC, intent on removing Sheriff Joe from office, and trying to replace him with Democrat candidate Paul Penzone.
Along with Soros' donation, money is coming in from other liberal donors, including $500,000 from Texas energy billionaires John and Laura Arnold, and $250,000 from the widow of Apple founder Steve Jobs, Laurene Powell Jobs.
In other words, wealthy globalists from other states are seeking to influence the sheriff election in Arizona.
In August, we reported how Soros is pouring money into local elections all across the nation, in a plan to transform the justice system by recruiting and funding his own candidates.
Politico reports:
Soros-backed groups are currently spending big in three big-city district attorney races: Houston's Harris County, where Soros has contributed over $1 million, according to local campaign finance filings; Gilpin and Jefferson counties outside Denver, where Soros has given about $1.5 million to unseat an incumbent; and Phoenix's Maricopa County, where a Soros-funded PAC has also spent over $1 million against the Republican district attorney, Bill Montgomery.
But Soros' spending against Arpaio, a high-profile liberal boogeyman, is his single biggest investment in a local race this year, as well as the billionaire's first effort against a sheriff. It folds in immigration reform, another policy passion of Soros', alongside criminal justice reform.
Soros' spokesman, Michael Vachon, admits the all-out assault on Arpaio:
"We made a major investment in the effort to defeat Joe Arpaio for two reasons. First, Joe Arpaio has been a stain on the justice system in Arizona for more than two decades, violating civil rights and abusing his office. Second, his influence on the national conversation about immigration has been poisonous. This election is an opportunity to send a message: When matched on an even playing field, the values of justice and inclusion will defeat the politics of fear-mongering and intolerance."
Arpaio has attacked Soros for trying to buy a local race, and has spent about $2.8 million airing his own TV ads. However, several polls have shown Soros' candidate, Paul Penzone, leading in the race.

Saved By The Bell Cast
February 18, 2012 by staff
Saved By The Bell Cast, Tiffani Thiessen has insisted that she has no interest in a Saved By The Bell reunion. Late Night host Jimmy Fallon has been the chief proponent of Thiessen reuniting with Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Mario Lopez for a new one-off Saved By The Bell episode, but the actress has now told Parade that it will likely never happen.
"It's not something I want or need to do, and a few of us feel the same way. We're all doing our own thing," Thiessen said, adding: "Jimmy's never called me personally, only his producers. He might be a little harder to turn down."
Thiessen also revealed that she's never read co-star Dustin Diamond's tell-all biography Behind the Bell, which dished dirt on Saved By The Bell's cast.
"My time is very precious these days, and that's not how I want to spend it," she said.
Saved By The Bell ran for five seasons between 1989 and 1992 and even spun off a College Years series.
Thiessen's co-star Elizabeth Berkley said last year that she would be in favor of a Saved By The Bell reunion show.

A model is proposed for the problem of `receptivity' of the boundary layer of a flat plate to the free-stream turbulence. The basic idea is that two harmonic components of the turbulent velocity spectrum may generate Tollmien-Schlichting waves in the boundary layer through nonlinear interaction. The numerical calculations based on this model show that Tollmien-Schlichting waves can actually be generated and the amplitudes may have the same order of magnitude as the disturbance amplitude in the free stream, at least for certain ranges of the Reynolds number, wavenumber and frequency.

Craig's catch helps Cards edge PadresJul 21, 2013 - 11:59 PM St. Louis, MO (Sports Network) - Allen Craig slowly went back to the warning track.
After the Padres just failed to tie the game because a double bounced out of play, Jedd Gyorko sent Edward Mujica's splitter deep to left.
Craig, after turning around on his way to the fence, recovered to get his right shoulder against the fence as he timed his jump. He elevated his glove over the padding and snagged Gyorko's fly ball to make it the 27th out in the St. Louis Cardinals' 3-2 win against the San Diego Padres in the rubber match of a three-game set.
"I didn't know if he hit it good enough to get it out," Craig said. "I had to run back pretty far to get it. He's always a guy who hits the ball to right field, so I was kind of shading the gap a little bit and he hit it straight over my head. That's always a tough play for an outfielder, to turn around and run straight back, not sure where it's going to fade to."
David Freese had two hits and lined a two-run double in the third inning that dropped just past Alexi Amarista's outstretched glove and proved to be the difference.
Adam Wainwright (13-5) gave up two runs on eight hits and two walks in eight innings. He struck out seven and became the National League's first to 13 wins.
Yonder Alonso had three hits and knocked in a run for the Padres.
Eric Stults (8-8) took the loss despite a 124-pitch effort. He gave up three runs on eight hits in six innings.
Alexi Amarista started the Padres' ninth-inning rally with a one-out single. Two batters later, Logan Forsythe sent a double down the left-field line. With Amarista set to score, the ball bounced out of play for a ground-rule double, putting runners on second and third with two outs. Gyorko crushed an inside splitter deep to left field, but Craig made his leaping catch to save the game.
"I thought it had a chance," Gyorko said. "It was a good play. That's how the game goes sometimes. You have to give him credit."
Craig's grab helped Edward Mujica pick up his 28th save.
Alonso knocked in a run to give the Padres a 1-0 lead in the first inning. Everth Cabrera opened the game with a double that bounced off Freese's glove at third base. Alonso lined a two-out single to left-center field to score Cabrera.
St. Louis responded with three runs in the third. Matt Carpenter crushed a leadoff double off the right-field wall. Yadier Molina followed with a walk and Carpenter scored on Craig's base hit to center field.
Freese then gave the Cardinals the lead when he sent a liner to center field. Amarista made a diving attempt, but the ball bounced just in front of his glove and rolled to the fence, scoring Molina and Craig.
The Padres got a run back in the sixth. Carlos Quentin smashed a double off the left-field fence and moved to third on an Alonso single. Will Venable followed with a double-play ground out, but Quentin scored on the play.
San Diego threatened to tie the game in the seventh after Logan Forsythe led off with a single and moved to third on a pair of ground outs. After a nine- pitch battle, Wainwright caught Cabrera looking at a cutter for strike three to end the inning.
Game Notes
The Cardinals won four out of six in the season series ... The Padres are 1-7 in rubber matches this season ... Alonso extended his hitting streak to 12 games ... Wainwright is 5-2 with a 1.47 earned run average in 10 games -- seven starts -- in his career against San Diego ... The Padres went 2-for-11 with runners in scoring position and stranded seven on base while the Cardinals went 2-for-5 with runners in scoring position and left six on base.

As a tourist attraction, it hardly competes with Sydney's Opera House or Ayers Rock, but fat tour buses inevitably crawl along Hay Street, the brothel quarter of this hard-edged capital of Western Australia's goldfields. Skimpily dressed young women wave from gaudily lighted stalls. Sometimes tourists wave back.
Prostitution has been a fact of life in Kalgoorlie since 1893, when Paddy Hannan, Tommy Flanagan and Danny Shea scooped out the first nuggets from nearby Golden Mile, now recognized as one of the world's richest gold-bearing lodes.
As reports of the find drew fortune-seekers from all over the world, women too began arriving, chiefly from Japan, Britain and France, to work as nurses, barmaids, and in the flashy pink, blue and orange establishments lining Hay Street, making it the national icon for wantonness.
Three brothels remain, and the town of 20,000, which lately has become a considerably more family-and-church-oriented place, is divided over one madam's plans for a $1 million renovation of her premises at 181 Hay Street, which would include a Museum of Prostitution.
''We can make Hay Street into an even bigger tourist asset,'' exclaimed Mary-Anne Kenworthy, whose front-stoop advertising brags: ''At one-eight-one, the girls are yum.'' Her proposal just cleared a major obstacle with a 7-4 vote in the town council granting building approval. She intends to start construction on Feb. 1.Continue reading the main story
''The museum, occupying the front ground floor, would be open during the day before the girls arrive,'' she said. ''There will be a guide, photographs, paintings, a lot of history, including one of the old working beds.''
Ms. Kenworthy believes her museum will be especially popular with women. ''Not a woman exists who doesn't itch to get her nose inside a brothel,'' she said.
One recent early evening, four older women strolled by 181 as blonde Tanya, 23, trying to pay her mortgage, and raven-haired Niki, 22, planning to finance college, were beckoning to men in cars.
''It's a fact of life,' said Molly Wooller, 63. She and her three companions, all widows on pensions, were visiting from Perth, 350 miles to the west, and ''decided to take a walk on Hay Street'' a hop-skip from the main business district.
They said they favored the restorations. ''Why not, if it'll make conditions better for the girls?'' asked Mrs. Wooller. When the women encountered Tanya and got to talking, they expressed curiosity about the inside of 181. As Tanya had a little spare time, she gave them a tour. Inside, the place looked tacky and rundown, in need of paint.
But many Kalgoorlie citizens see Ms. Kenworthy's proposal as the thin edge of the wedge. Should her establishment be upgraded, this could encourage others to upgrade as well, and, according to Jay Townsend, deputy editor of the local daily, the Kalgoorlie Miner, ''You could turn what exists today as a historic tourist attraction into something more.''
That ''something more'' makes many townspeople skittish, including Mayor Ron Yuryevich, who believes that while the sex industry will never be crushed, it must be compressed to keep from suffocating other businesses.
''We've always recognized the brothel situation because of our large contingent of single young males, so you'll probably never build a home on Hay Street,'' he said with a cautious smile. A third of Kalgoorlie's population is aged 25 to 35, and half aren't old enough to vote.
''What we don't need,'' the Mayor added, ''are the takeaways -- call girls operating from the brothels, sometimes knocking on the wrong doors at night, or more massage parlors and freelancers offering discount services.''
If only for health reasons, he emphasized, it's important to ''keep a handle'' on the situation.
So far the brothels don't seem to have suffocated other business. Despite a slump in world gold prices, the town is thriving.
The population is up by 50 percent over the last 15 to 20 years, largely thanks to new discoveries of nickel near the gold seams. Instead of wizened prospectors, newcomers are computer specialists, accountants, engineers and other skilled professionals brought in by big mining corporations, often with young families. Real estate prices have never been higher.
Although the Mayor, who operates a local air-conditioning business, lost the fight on the council to stop the renovation of 181, his support for brothels as they now exist makes him a moderate in the broader civic struggle.
Seeking to root them out completely is a formidable coalition of local church leaders and the Australian Family Association.
''Are we trying to present ourselves as the brothel capital of Australia, or a place for families?'' asks Thomas Graf, minister of the Uniting Church, composed of former Methodists, Presbyterians and Congregationalists.
Adds the Rev. Terry Raj, a Roman Catholic priest born in Bangalore, India, ''No parents want their children walking along Hay Street. The redevelopment plan and creation of a museum, by glamorizing prostitution, breaches the limits of acceptability.''
Robert Hicks, president of the family association, opposes anything that might adversely affect a family environment.
''We see prostitution as not conducive to good relationships,'' he said. ''It should be squashed, subverted, kept underground. If it pops up, the police should go after it.''
Under Section 190 of the criminal code of Western Australia, prostitution is illegal. But because the law is hard to enforce, a policy of containment has evolved. Kalgoorlie's three brothels are tolerated without threat of prosecution, along with nine brothels in Perth and two Perth escort agencies.
The state government is considering legalizing prostitution, but from the array of opposing forces mustered in Kalgoorlie alone, that path will obviously run into thickets of opposition.
Yet many believe renovations are needed if only to keep the old structures from becoming fire hazards, and that a prostitution museum, along with the Goldfields Museum and the Superpit of surface workings three miles from town, will draw tourist dollars.
Ray Delbridge, former president of the Australian Workers Union's mining division, led the successful fight in the council for Ms. Kenworthy's proposal. ''We have a duty to the people of Kalgoorlie to give them what they want.''
So contentious is the issue, it divides colleagues. Manila-born Vergel Licerio, a computer technician who works two blocks from the brothels, utterly opposes them. ''They're illegal, do no good for the town.''
His boss, Bill Main, argues that brothels perform a community service, for example, in reducing the number of rapes, and should be treated like any other business.
''The girls are not legal but the police accept them because they are there, and because they are well controlled, everything is done in a very open manner,'' he said. ''There are no heavy men controlling prostitution here.''Continue reading the main story

When writing a professional letter, it's important to focus on capturing the appropriate tone, using the right language, and including all the appropriate elements. Here are a few handy tips to help you write an effective professional letter, but keep in mind that each individual letter type has its own requirements.
Be sure to take a look at our free professional letter samples to get the necessary pointers for the specific letter you need to craft.
1. Stay Focused: Keep your professional letter on track by stating only the necessary details to carry out the letter's purpose. The less you give your reader to process, the easier it will be for them to lock in on the most important information.
2. Be Brief: In business - time is money, so be sure to make good use of your reader's time by keeping your letter as brief as possible. If you can say what you need to say in one page or even two paragraphs, do so, as seen in our professional letter samples.
3. Keep it Professional: Avoiding slang and keeping your language professional will help ensure that your letter is taken seriously. Even if your work relationships extend beyond the office, keep all official office correspondence in this tone.
4. Be Meticulous: Your professional letter will make a far better impression if it's well written and free of any spelling and grammar mistakes. Always take the time to carefully proofread your letter. Asking someone else to read it can be really helpful.

The effect of context variables on cognitive effort in multiattribute binary choice
- Citations
- 86 Downloads
This article reports an empirical investigation of the cognitive effort required to decide in multiattribute binary choice using a variation of the Additive Difference strategy. In contrast with other studies, this paper focuses on the effect of various context variables (rather than task variables) on cognitive effort. In order to select the context variables to be manipulated, we used the model proposed by Shugan (1980; J. Consumer Res. 75 (1980) 99). Our results indicate that there is a positive relationship between the cognitive effort required to decide and the mean of the differences between the dimensions of the choice alternatives. We have also found an inverse relationship between cognitive effort and the variance of the differences between the dimensions of the choice alternatives. Finally, we have found that in negative correlation contexts the effort needed to decide is greater than in positive and null correlation contexts.

Kakita Himoto was a Fire shugenja of the Crane Clan.
Winter Court - 1668 Edit
Himoto attended Winter Court at Kyuden Otomo in 1168. Being a bitter enemy to the Shadowlands, he spent much of the winter attempting to create a coalition of samurai to work together against the Shadowlands (including such notable figures as Hiruma Todori and Ikoma Korin). They dedicated themselves to opposing Daigotsu Soetsu's insidious influence in court. Himoto also filled in for Doji Jorihime in court when she was under suspicion, under false accusations of Gozoku membership forged by the Scorpion Clan. [1]
Oni Mura Edit
After Winter Court ended they launched a mission to purify the village of Oni Mura. [1]

Engadget Review
BlackBerry Q10 review
The BlackBerry Q10 delivers the great QWERTY feel that fans have been waiting for, but those looking to consume content will want to stick to the larger panel on the Z10.
- Great physical keyboard
- Solid build quality
- Good display
- Small display
- Mediocre camera
- Limited app selection
You can't please everybody all the time, and if there's a company who knows this better than the rest, it's BlackBerry. At the showy launch for BlackBerry 10, the company finally unveiled its new stable of smartphones with which it would fight the likes of Apple, Samsung, HTC, Microsoft, Nokia and Google. No simple task, that, and so BlackBerry rolled out not one, but two weapons: the all-touch Z10 and the portrait-QWERTY Q10. But there was a catch: only one would launch at a time. It was a staged attack, with the Z10 forming the initial volley. Many said this was a mistake, and that the Q10 and its familiar physical keyboard should have gone first, paving the way for the more radical, all-touch Z10. After what seems like an eternity, the $249 BlackBerry Q10 is finally ready for duty, so let's put it through its paces and see which of these fraternal twins is truly the flagship.

New BE5 and BE8: a combination of performances
Creativity, quality ingredients and high performing mixers can make the difference when it comes to achieve perfect results in the kitchen. Today Electrolux introduces the new 5 and 8 liter-BE stand mixers, the latest development of a wide range of planetary mixers (from 5 to 80 litres) and the outcome of a long tradition of professional expertise and product know-how.
The planetary movement, the variable speed rotation (from 67 rpm to 740 rpm) and the shape and size of the stainless steel bowl and tools (hook, paddle, whisk), ensure every part of the bowl is covered for uniform working of all ingredients, resulting in superior performance in kneading, blending and whipping.
Furthermore, the new planetary mixers are ease-of-use and compact and offers 100% dishwasher safe components (tools, double-handle bowl and splash guard). The exclusive design of the new transparent splash guard offers:

A MMORPG is just a big book and all books need a few things to make them amazing. Here is what I think needs to be looked at to decipher if an MMORPG is good or not.
Intro. The second you enter a world not foreign to you, you begin to examine it. If things do not keep your attention or you cannot relate to this world in some shape or form you will not, most likely, stay in it.
For a good snag you need 1.Likable characters. Weather it be looks or personality or even a fond memory you had this is one of the most important aspects of any game. A guitar teacher once told me "Dont pick out the fanciest most expensive guitar because everyone thinks its cool, pick out the guitar thats gonna make you want to play it." Having said that it should hit home on how important the Atmosphere, Land, Characters, Story are to develop. Now to implement this to FFXI and what should be done in FF14.
FFXI (Characters): Had some good characters, they were new to the FF universe, exciting, and some cute others UGLY as **** (Galka which hey One mans trash is anothers treasure.)
FF14 (Characters): One of my main problems IMO is that the character selection "SO FAR" granted there may be more options, are the same. I was disappointed when i heard this. The universe in FF14 is a clean slate and they had the opportunity to bring some new and exciting things to the game and instead they chose old races. Granted you could argue that well I like the old races but then what is keeping you from liking new ones? Like Bangaa, Viera, Moogles, or character models like the Ronso, Vivi, Freya?
Jobs: Like any MMORPG jobs/classes are the backbone of the game. So a solid selection of jobs that can preform equally and balanced is extremely important now I will dissect my exp and thoughts on this subject.
FFXI (Jobs): The most amazing part of FFXI was that it had more jobs then more job options then more rpgs then you can shake a stick at. Throw in the subjob system and you have infinite possibilities. The only problem with this area is balance. For a long time Dragoons ownd then nerfed and it took weeks and weeks to find parties. Then Rangers owned then nerfed then same problem. The list goes on. I was a guy who had job A.D.D I loved them all. I loved to tank, **** one time we were partying and I was tanking as a war. It was in Valkrum (yes I know low lvl noob area) I had brought my war and I had ended up dieing for some reason weither the WHM ran outta mana or forgot to heal **** idk. But I died, HP'd, ran back died, ran back and finished my **** job. I felt amazing because no one died but me =) Thing was is I felt so just frustrated because some jobs I wanted to play werent worth the effort. My time is to important to stare at a screen (farming crafting whatever and waiting for a party invite for ever)
FF14 (Jobs): With the introduction of this game I cant say much about the jobs specifically because not much is actually known. I personally hope it has something to do with FF Tactics. Having said that I will hit on the point of Being able to solo and the hot topic of "mindless grinding" Playing a job that you love made that easier in FFIX and some people say well I dont wanna jump from quest to quest this and that and blah blah because of those chump players that cant play hardcore. Well I am a **** hardcore player and just because you cant spend 4 hours grinding a day because you have responsabilites, a wife, kid, job, other games you want to play, hobbies outside of video games (guitar, Writing books, etc.) you shouldnt be held back from playing an amazing game. A good developer can make both people who dont have all the time in the world (ADULTS) and people who do (TEENS or LAZY ADULTS) content that would make both happy.
Story: Without a good storyline you can kiss your &Y^%$# goodbye.
I cannot and will not play a game that has a bad storyline. I quit wow for 3 years and went back and thought heck this time ill read all the quest logs and pay attention to the storyline. BLAH I think I just threw up in my mouth.
FFXI (Story): I think this was relatively.... well.. I am not gonna lie. In the 5+ years I played this game I just didnt pay any attention to the story nor did I quest for crap cuz I just decided to LVL everyday which is prolly why I ended up quitting other then the hours to find a party, get organized, grind....
FF14: When they said no exp I was incredebly happy, when they said "this game will be focused on growth of character" as a writer I was even giddyier then a school girl. I think that this game is going to break a mold in the MMORPG world and I think we should all be excited. Pray its not nothing like FFXI but different and similar in good ways. I mainly wrote this to stop people from arguing over crap and make them realize that this is NEW AND EXCITING AND STOP ARGUING AND START SHARING THINGS YOU ARE EXCITED ABOUT. You cant argue about something you dont know but you can have a blast sharing your excitement of the upcoming game.

Talk:Intertwined Disciplines and the SEBoK
From SEBoK
Some Interesting Systems do not contain software
Hillary S:
Natural systems do not contain software; some social systems do not contain software; there are many complex structural and civil-engineered systems that do not contain software.
It is probably true to say that "most interesting engineered systems now contain software", but the global opening statement that "virtually all interesting systems contain software" will alienate an important class of potential SEBok stakeholders and beneficiaries.

Seems fine to me.

What are Repossessed Motorhome Auctions?
by admin21 • June 13, 2012 • Motorhome Auctions and Repossession, Repossessed RV and Motorhomes, RV Auctions • 0 Comments
Repossessed motorhome auctions are auctions that sell motorhomes that have been repossessed by the lender. Buying motorhomes from this type of an auction is a great way to save money.
Most repossessed motorhome auctions are held at an auction house or auction lot by a professional auction company. The lenders will hire a company to do the work for them, to make sure all the laws are properly followed. The auction companies will then advertise to attract buyers to their auction.
Some of the best places to look for these auctions is in the local newspapers in the classified sections. If it is a really big auction, you will hear ads for it on the radio or local newspaper.
Another good place to find them is in car, boat, and RV magazines. You can usually pick several of these up for free in the local grocery store. Also, you can look in the phone book for auction houses, and just start calling around asking for a house that specializes in vehicles.
Are Motorhome Foreclosures a Good Deal?
When a lot of people think about repo auctions, what comes to mind is a snake preying on innocent victims. This is not really how it is.
When you find a foreclosure, the bank has already taken the motorhome back, and any new person buying is buying from them, not the person who couldn't pay.
The bank wants to get rid of it and hopefully break even on it, so they can turn around and lend to someone else. Having a lot of repossessed motorhomes is very bad for the bank's business. They of course would love to get what is owed on the vehicle, but are willing to discount for the sake of "getting them off their books". Typically you will save 30% to 40% when you buy from repossessed motorhome auctions.

By Sharon L. Peters, Special for USA TODAY
Judith Brindley, fighting her way back to health after a rare bone marrow disease nearly took her life, realized one day she would improve no further without the company of her beloved greyhounds, which were banished to a caregiver on doctors' orders.
So she researched how to reduce the chance of dog-to-human disease transmission, such as wearing latex gloves when poop-scooping, cleaning paws after walks and frequent washing of muzzles. She battled for weeks before winning a grudging OK from physicians, who felt the dogs posed a threat to a body compromised by chemotherapy, bone marrow transplant, stem cell transplant and immunosuppressant drugs.
Finally, in July, Brindley reclaimed Grace and Roy after a three-month separation.
SLIDESHOW: See more photos of how Brindley's dogs help
FORUM: Living with Cancer
BETTER LIFE: Cancer news and studies
"There's no question that having (the dogs) with me these past few months made a huge difference in my recovery," says artist/art teacher Brindley, 65, now cheerfully settled back into her active, dog-rich Manhattan life and preparing to resume teaching next week. "They gave so much to my recovery. Their greeting me each day as though it was a special day … made me realize how lucky I am."
All pet owners and most in the medical community now acknowledge the healing power of animals. Some doctors even write prescriptions giving hospitalized patients access to the pets they left at home. At the 1,000-bed Christiana Hospital in Newark, Del., patients can request orders for a recuperative in-room visit with their pet.
But there are pockets of disagreement among doctors when it comes to allowing seriously ill or functionally fragile people to return to a home occupied by a pet buddy. Some advise pets be exiled, fearing that someone in a full-leg cast, for example, might trip over a rambunctious cat and undo everything; or someone with open wounds or whose immune system is weak from chemotherapy or diseases like HIV/AIDS could pick up an infection from the animal.
"I receive phone calls virtually weekly" from veterinarians phoning on behalf of clients who are distressed because a physician has issued a no-pets advisory, says John New, head of comparative medicine at the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine. They call New because his specialty is public health, which means he monitors animal and human health concerns and guidelines. New never advises them to "ignore the physician's advice, of course," he says, but "in many instances I can give information on assessing the situation and offer precautions."
It all comes down to degree of risk and whether a person — or doctor — feels the need to reduce it to nearly zero, or is willing to accept somewhat more. Every situation "must be handled on a case-by-case basis," New says. But he points out that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has prepared guidelines for reducing exposures for people with various weakened-immune-system conditions, "and nowhere do they say 'get rid of the pet at home.' "
In fact, the guidelines for dealing with HIV-infected people say such patients "should not be advised to give away or destroy healthy pets" but should be dissuaded from acquiring a puppy or kitten under 6 months old because of a specific bug they may carry.
Ray Pais, director of pediatric hematology/oncology at Knoxville's East Tennessee Children's Hospital, gives "lots of instructions" to his patients' parents. "But I never tell anyone to get rid of the dog or cat," he says, though he does discourage proximity to pet birds because their droppings dry into a dust that can infiltrate lungs. And he's not fond of pet lizards and turtles because of salmonella risk.
"Most of the infections we worry about — by far more than half of the infections we see (in kids undergoing cancer treatments) — are infections from germs in their own bodies," such as in their mouths or their intestines, that in healthy people are beneficial but in compromised people cause illness.
"Our young patients have already given up so much," Pais says, "I see no reason at that moment for them to also lose the dog."
Indeed, a growing body of anecdotal data suggests time with a pet may be "as powerful in the person's recovery as the medical treatment," says the American Humane Association's Phil Arkow.
Carol Tavani, executive director of Christiana Psychiatric Services in Delaware, says "more doctors are becoming sensitized, largely through feedback from patients" to how important contact with a pet is, but she still hears of doctors who ask patients to "remove the dog or cat as if it were a chair." She calls that "rigid" and believes that "anything that is good for your stress is good for your immune system."
Artist Brindley says she is grateful for the skills of her doctors but believes many in the medical field should acknowledge the importance of pets in people's lives, learn more about pet-to-human disease transmission and discuss with patients "how to minimize the risk of having pets with them as they heal."
She knows "people may criticize me" for relentlessly badgering her medical team to allow Grace and Roy back into her life. But once the dogs were with her again, "I was relaxed. I didn't have to work on healing, I was healing."

- Remove the coil spring from the vehicle. For details, please refer to the procedure located earlier in this section.
- If not done already, remove the tire and wheel assembly.
- Remove the brake caliper and support it from the vehicle using a coat hanger or wire. Make sure the brake line is not stretched or damaged and that the caliper's weight is not supported by the line.
- Remove the cotter pin and retaining nut from the upper ball joint.
- Position J-23742 or an equivalent ball joint separator tool between upper joint stud and the upper joint/control arm. Use the tool to separate the ball joint from the steering knuckle. Pull the steering knuckle free of the ball joint after removal.
After separating the steering knuckle from the upper ball joint, be sure to support the steering knuckle/hub assembly to prevent damaging the brake hose. Also, support the lower control arm and guide it out of the opening in the splash shield.
- Remove the jam nuts from the back of each lower control arm pivot bolt.
- Unfasten the pivot bolts (noting the direction in which they are facing), then remove the control arm from the vehicle.
- If the bushings are beings replaced, use a suitable bushing service set to remove the bushings from the control arm. The front bushing is normally flared and the flare must be driven down flush with the rubber using a blunt chisel before attempting removal.
- If the bushings were removed, use the bushing service set to install them to the control arms. If the front bushing is the flared type, use a flaring tool to produce an approximate flare of 45 degrees.
- Position the control arm to the vehicle.
- Install the pivot bolts as noted during removal. For most vehicles covered by this information, that means they should be installed with the heads forward, facing the rear.
- Install the jam nuts and tighten to 67 ft. lbs. (90 Nm) on both nuts on 1994 models. On 1995-99 models tighten the front nut to 85 ft. lbs. (115 Nm) and the rear nut to 72 ft. lbs. (98 Nm).
- Remove the support from the steering knuckle, then install the ball joint to the knuckle. Make sure the joint is seated, then install the stud nut. Install a new cotter pin.
When installing the cotter pin, never loosen the castle nut to expose the cotter pin hole.

DIY File Cabinet Desk
This last month I went through a huge transition…ALL of my kiddos are in school ALL day long! It's so bittersweet. With my boys being gone I knew I needed a new craft/work space because I finally have some real craft time! I wanted it HUGE! 10 feet long huge and spanning my whole room. I did a lot of research on how to create it and decided to use file cabinets for my base.
I looked long and hard on Craigslist and our local thrift stores and came up empty for months. Dang small town living! So, I had to buck up and buy mine off Amazon. To support the desk with how deep I wanted it, I needed deep cabinets. I wanted to paint them so they looked really nice. To start painting them, first pull off the hardware.
You also have to pull out the drawers. If you cant figure out how to get them out, try YouTube! It helped me! I wrapped around the drawers with paper, so only the front would get painted. You can not remove the button so I just painted mine.
I used Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch Ivory Bisque to paint the file cabinets and for the hardware I used Rust-Oleum Gold Rush.
It turned out awesome!
Now it was time to build the desk! The first step was to get the wood! I went the cheap route. Pine 1×6 planks from Home Depot. I needed 5 to make my desk about 28 inches deep. This is one of the most important parts! You want to pick out wood that will line up as best as possible. It won't line up perfect, because the wood will be warped. You are just looking for the best fitting pieces. This process took us about an hour. Be prepared to be patient!
Once you have these planks you need wood for the underside frame. The best choice for this would be 2×2 pieces. Unfortuantly, the longest 2×2's we could find were 8 feet long. Since my desk was going to be 10 feet long we had to buy a 10 foot 2×4 and rip it into 2-10 foot long 2×2's. We also bought 2- 8 foot long 2×2's.
While at Home Depot you will also want to buy a countersink drill bit, so you can hide your screw holes. You will also want several 3 inch screws and also inch and half wood screws.
Next you need to build your frame:
Find out how wide you want your desk and how long. We did this by laying our planks out first. Be sure to cut your planks the right length before you start this process! Once you have them cut the right length, you will need to build your frame the same size as the planks.
Cut your middle cross pieces to fit inside. You are going to screw it in like the arrows show using your longer screws.
On the front side of the frame you will need to use your countersink bit first so you won't see the screws. If you have never used a countersink bit here is what you do. Drill in first with the countersink bit, just wide enough for your screw to sit into the wood and be completely under the top of the board.
You can see here how the screw goes in under the wood.
Once your frame is together it's time to put the planks on the top.
Once again make sure you countersink on the top. We did 2 screws on each part of the plank where it hit the frame. One thing I forgot to take pictures of is that we made big holes in the top for computer cords using a spade drill bit. Like this:
When all the planks are done it should look like this from the bottom.
This may seem out of order, but the next thing I did was stain the bottom. I wanted it stained, but I also wanted to be able to sand off any stain that might soak through. So I stained the bottom before sanding the top.
Then it's time too fill all the countersink holes. Since I was staining my desktop I used, Minwax Stainable Wood Filler.
I filled it and left a little out of each hole.
I let it dry completely. Next came the belt sander.
Because we were using cheap planks we had a lot of sanding to do. Some parts were a little higher and I wanted the top to be even and smooth. So be patient and get the planks even. It will make all the difference when its done!
Once we belt sanded, it was time for the hand sander.
You can see how the belt sander was rough. I hand sanded for at least an hour over the whole top until it was smooth as can be!
This what your filled holes will now look like.
There were a few spots where the stain had come through so I sanded those down some.
Because I wanted a more rustic look I didn't use a pre-stain. Here is what I did use. Thick paper towels or a rag, tack cloth, a sponge brush, and the Minwax Dark Walnut stain. Tack cloth is amazing! It will get all the dust particles off of your wood. Before you use the tack cloth I would spray the seams with a compressed air duster (like you use to clean keyboards). I didn't do that and I had dust come up during staining which was frustrating! Make sure you remove all the dust with the tack cloth before you stain.
I don't have any staining pictures, because I was concentrating on getting it done right since it was such a large piece. The key to staining is to put an even layer on and leave it for a few minutes (until it gets the shade you want) then wipe the rest off. After the stain I added 3 coats of Minwax Polycrylic which gives an amazing sturdy coating over the stain. I followed the instruction and made sure to sand in between each layer and used tack cloth to clear any dust.
Then you can place your file cabinets and set your beautiful desk on top!
This is what the holes looked like when stained.
I love that I have room to pull out my Cricut or my sewing machine and still have room to work!

Comments (37)
Lovely work, it reminds me of the desk my mom made for me when I was a teenager. The top was similar, but she used kitchen cabinets for the base. I'm now thinking of making a desk for a home my husband and I are moving into soon. How has the middle of the tabletop held up without any visible vertical support? Does the frame take care of that?
Eugene Drake
That's so cool!! I recently bought the file cabinets on "offerUp" for 15$ bucks each!:) I'll paint them soon! But the most difficult part seems to be the actual table!.. Did you finished that in one day? Does it works perfect?:)
Beautiful…..how did you attach the top to the filing cabinets?
Shawna Wilson
We are totally doing this, but dumb question: How tall were your file cabinets? We have one already, but it's only 2′ tall and I would prefer something taller.
i also have a file cabinet that measures 26 1/2″. Yes that is too short, even for me! But after you make the frame it measures at about 28 1/2″ – 28 3/4″ depending on the thickness of the desk top. My small desk that I use is 29″ tall and works well. You could also add casters to the bottom of the file cabinets which will increase it another 3″ – 4″. I hope this helps you.
Frolicking Gypsy
so cute! Love the desk, I have a similar one with an Ikea butcher block counter top and saw horses. I love the spray painted trash can. Absolutely fabulous.
Love this! So pretty! When I made my desk/art space I just used a really big solid white door. I love the versatility of the planks for staining them. Your office space is gorgeous. What an inspiring place to be 🙂
Thank you! I thought about using a door but my space was over 10 feet long!
I did use a door and it butts up against one that is at right angles on the other wall . Works great for me. I use one desk for computer and personal business(paying bills etc) and the other one for quilting, bought a large cutting mat and cut it down to size covers the whole "desk top" (door.
Patricia Teeters
I love this idea. I have a 6ft island counter top I could do this with. Sure would solve a lot of my problems with computers and crafting. Thanks for the inspiration. Your desk turned out beautifully. A project to be very proud of.
Zoe Poole
I love the idea of this desk and I am trying to make one for my own room. Does anyone know where you can get cheap wooden filing cabinets from though as I have been looking for them for ages? Thanks
I looked on Craigslist and even put a ad in the wanted section.
Linda Harr
I love the versatility of how one could shorten it to fit a particular window in their own space. I love this!
Hi, I love your desk.. I am trying to make The same one. Can you tell me the measurements of the filing cabinets you used? Thanks!
We did a similar project several years ago using premade kitchen counter top. You still need to raise the counter so it will clear the file drawer opening. Not as pretty as yours but suitable for a child or teen homework center.
What a great idea! I love how it turned out!!! When I was a kid my mom had a huge desk like this, but not as pretty! I also have been looking for used (decent) file cabinets to buy for cheap with no luck!! I wish I was not afraid of the DIY movement. It scares me.
Heidi Schilling Fowler
This reminds me of my desk, but the top is made with used doors. Your wood top looks awesome!
Your dest turned out so awesome! I love the way you did the wood plank top. It is lovely! 🙂 What a fun giveaway! xoxo
Aimee @ LikeMotherLikeDaughter
What a great desk! And so useful with so much space and storage too!

A pair of nesting peregrine falcons at MidAmerican Energy Co.'s downtown Davenport building can be viewed online as they prepare to become parents again.
The falcons, named Scorpio and P/D, have raised more than a dozen young outside the 10th-floor window of the 106 E. 2nd St. office building. The utility company is again streaming live video of the nest 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The birds, which have nested there since 2003, have four eggs in their nest so far this year. The eggs are expected to hatch in early May.
MidAmerican and WQAD-TV have partnered for a second year to provide the live video. To see the nest, visit WQAD-TV's website at wqad.com/falcon-cam.
After the eggs hatch, the falcons will be banded by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources to monitor the falcons' progress as they grow.
Scorpio, the female, was released at Ball State University in Muncie, Ind., as part of a wildlife recovery program, and P/D, the male, was released in Lansing, Iowa, as part of a program to reintroduce peregrine falcons to the state.
The falcons originally nested on the Centennial Bridge but were forced out by construction. But when the Iowa Department of Natural Resources installed a nesting box at MidAmerican Energy's building, the falcons immediately claimed it as their home.
MidAmerican will issue weekly updates on the falcons' progress via the company's Twitter and Facebook pages, which can be found at www.midamericanenergy.com.
