libevnet provides a suite of interfaces useful in network applications. The API includes a buffered I/O interface, connect(2) and accept(2) analogues, a fully featured DNS lookup package, thread pools, and transparent OpenSSL integration. Using libevent as the poll-select-epoll-kqueue-/dev/poll event loop, all interfaces express the traditional Unix non-blocking I/O paradigm for the construction of high-performance applications.

Release Notes: String comparison bugs in lookup.c were fixed. Close-on-exec flags are supported. A descriptor leak in the socket compat library was fixed. A memory bug in lookup.c was fixed. The new c-ares callback signature is matched. Debian package support was added.
Release Notes: The platform compatibility library was refactored.
Release Notes: A recursive mutex acquisition deadlock was fixed.
Release Notes: All known bugs were fixed.
Release Notes: An /etc/{hosts,resolv.conf} parser bug which caused parsing to cease at the first blank line or full-line comment was fixed. A missing return statement was added in a static function from bufio.h which could prevent successful compilation or cause weird run-time behavior. socket_setsockstate() was added, so a socket object can be derived from an existing, connected descriptor.

You need to install the latest libarena snapshot. I added some short-hand macros to <arena/util.h> after 0.3.1 was released.
Feel free to e-mail me privately or on the mailing-list. libevnet itself is pretty stable, it's just the build system which is out of shape.

Soooo... how about the ending of last night's "Idol"?
It wouldn't have mattered if the performances on last night's first edition of Hollywood Week had featured the most talented crop of young singers the show had ever seen (for the record: it didn't), all thanks to the aftermath of 16-year-old Symone Black's turn at the spotlight.
After a modest rendition of Otis Redding [1]'s "Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay," the young contestant wobbled a little too close to the edge of the stage, eventually falling off. Head, meet cameraman, and eventually floor. "Call medic!" exclaims producer Nigel Lythgoe. Roll credits. Explain that young Symone's fate will be revealed Thursday night.
Dramatic much?
On the comparitively lighter side of things, the singing competition cut a ton of wide-eyed hopefuls Wednesday night -- half of the 309 who ventured to Hollywood, said Ryan Seacrest. Along the way, we were shown small snippets of many early favorites' performances, many of which sailed through to the second round.
Certain performers exuded total confidence. Johnny Keyser pleased the judges with a bevy of runs and falsetto on Amos Lee' [2]s "Dreamin'," as he continued to establish himself as one of the show's early frontrunners. Likewise, Reed Grimm returned with another performance that made singing seem positively effortless. A jazzy, scatting-filled rendition of "I've Got a Golden Ticket" was his offering. He's goofy as all get-out, but he's also a performer "Idol" could really use this season.
Furthest from the mere thought of confidence and swagger was Heejun Han, who may be one of the most fun-to-watch contestants the show has had in quite some time. "Even the guys are so pretty. They're so good-looking!" worried Heejun prior to his turn, but the Korean-American showed he deserved another shot at his audition song, "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You." Ideally, I think everyone needs a Heejun Han to carry around with them all day, don't you agree?
We also were introduced to Adam Brock and Jeremy Rosado, both of whom weren't shown during the audition rounds. While Jeremy's fate is still unknown due to the show's fainting fiasco, Adam was put through with a voice he said has been described as sounding like "there is a large black woman trapped inside me." After the performance? Probably the wrong gender, but he may be on to something. And I'm sorry, Britnee Kellogg, but your kids have been replaced as the cutest. Adam's daughter? OMG.
Sadly, it was the end of the road for a few contestants, including Jim Carrey's daughter Jane. Frankly, her audition had left something to be desired, and her Hollywood performance did much of the same, but it would have been cool to see the offspring of a celebrity go far. Ramiro Garcia, Wolf Hamlin, Jenni Schick and Travis Orlando were also among those cut, with the latter a particularly depressing castoff from backstory alone. But in terms of overall talent? There were no surprise eliminations Wednesday night.
An exhibition of raw, truly amazing star power has yet to be shown this season, but never fear, "Idol" viewers -- Thursday night's show will feature the always-tantalizing Group Round, during which the remaining contestants will have to work together in order to move on. Who will survive? Who will falter? Who will go to bed early and piss off the rest of their group? Find out tonight at 8 p.m. on FOX.

The Tigers worked for nearly three hours in the morning without its top quarterback, Woodrow Dantzler, top defensive lineman, Nick Eason, and top defensive back, Charles Hafley. All were absent as they went through graduation exercises in nearby Littlejohn Coliseum. They were back for practice in the afternoon.
Clemson now has seven players listed as starters who will play as graduate students this year.
Dantzler's absence allowed backup Willie Simmons to work the entire practice with the first team, something he did all spring as Dantzler recovered from a lower leg injury.
Bowden singled out a couple of freshmen on Saturday. "Jamaal Fudge and Eric Sampson both had interceptions during the practice and played well in the morning." Both players are first-year freshmen defenders from White High School in Jacksonville, FL. Fudge is a defensive back, while Sampson has been working with the linebackers.
"It was a good workout for some of the young players, especially on the defensive side." Bowden also discussed the progress of his special teams on Saturday.
"Aaron Hunt hit every kick down the middle on Friday and missed just one on Saturday. Wynn Kopp has punted the ball well. He is a player who has been a starter for two years at an SEC school (Georgia). He punts the ball high and few of his balls will be returnable. Tif Miller has also done well in the preseason.
"I have also been pleased with the performance of the holder and snappers.
We have the starters back in both slots, so we should be strong in the special teams this year." Jeff Scott, son of Clemson offensive coordinator Brad Scott, is the holder, while Henry Owen, is in his fourth year as the starting snapper. Bowden also noted that second year players Tommy Sharpe and Geoff Rigsby have done well as snappers and look to replace Owen next year.
The Tigers will break for Fan Appreciation Day on Sunday. The Tigers will be available in Littlejohn Coliseum Sunday afternoon from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM.

Enabling Technology (Disability, Human Rights and Society)
Using a social barriers model of disability, this text addresses the role of new technology in reducing the environmental and attitude barriers disabled people have commonly to face in the field of employment. This text is critical of established writings on disability and new technology, and suggests that the adoption of medical models of disability leads to misrepresentation of the benefits of new technology for disabled people. The social barriers model discussed in this book views the benefits of new technology as inhering its potential to rehabilitate disabling environments. The text also addresses the need to reframe policies on technology access away from a welfarist "eligibility" model and towards a "social rights" approach - one where disabled people are centrally involved in the framing, operation and review of technology access policy. The following questions are also addressed by this book: what is the significance of new microchip technologies for disabled workers/job seekers?; how is new technology enabling some disabled workers to gain enhanced access to employment and a more enabling employment?; and what are the policy implications of the research findings and the re-evaluation of the role of new technology?

"Everybody played good," Louisiana's top-ranked junior said, 24 hours after his team put almost 60 points on the board in the semis.
"It feels good to make it to the state finals - not just for me but for the school, community and alumni."
The Cubs now get two weeks to prepare for John Curtis.
"The coaches said to enjoy the big win last night," he said, "and after that it's time to go back to work.
"John Curtis has a real good program. They make very few mistakes. We have to come out with intensity when we play them."
Brossette is one of three LSU commits (along with Garrett Brumfield and Dylan Moses) on the U-High roster.
"Dylan isn't playing like a freshman," he noted. "He's playing like a senior. He and Garrett are playing extremely good football. Garrett's been making big blocks for me, and Tre Jackson and Malik Antoine have also played well.
"We (LSU) had a good game, shutting down Johnny Football with the defense, and we ran the ball well (vs. Texas A&M). The future is bright for LSU. Everybody is stepping up with true freshmen contributing. Before I committed, I noticed that LSU's coaches trust the young guys by how they play freshmen."
Brossette found the end zone four times in undefeated U-High's 58-23 win over cross-town rival Parkview.

Dragon boat racing has been around for centuries but its resurgence as a competitive sport happened in the early 90's with the formation of the International Dragon Boat Federation (IDBF). The sport's popularity has been growing steadily ever since. Most dragon boat races are sprints ranging from 250m to 2000m and are regulated by formal racing rules.
The standard crew of a dragon boat is 22 people with 20 paddlers, one sweep that steers the boat and one drummer that sets the pace. The boat itself is ornamented with a dragon's head and tail. Paddlers sit in pairs beside each other on a bench and each take a side of the boat. They must be in synch as they follow the lead two paddlers and the drummer.
The dragon boat paddles in IDBF approved racing venues do not vary in shape or size but may vary greatly in materials. Dragon boat paddles must be built to IDBF Specification 202a to be approved for racing so creativity on the manufacturers part must be in materials used. Paddlers expect dragon boat paddles to be light, strong and comfortable.
KIALOA Hybrid Dragon Boat Paddles are inspired by our popular hybrid canoe paddles. A hybrid paddle consists of a wood shaft and a carbon blade. The blade is constructed with a foam core using a process called resin transfer molding (RTM) that creates an extremely strong, light and durable paddle. The triple laminated wood shaft is hand-shaped and oval for a comfortable grip. The superior finish creates a wonderful hand-feel. The Ergo-T™ is also hand-shaped of wood and fits nicely in the palm.
Makahiki means festival in Hawaiian and the tradition of festival paddling in dragon boating is what inspired this paddle. Festival organizers want a paddle that is durable and low maintenance, a paddle that can withstand the abuse of many paddlers and many races. KIALOA's implementation of the CFRT® technology produces a blade that can perform with the best composite paddles out there and last for many seasons with virtually no maintenance.
First start by finding a club near you. The best way to learn about the sport of dragon paddling is talk to your local associtaion.

Description: Opening its doors during the era that inspired The Great Gatsby and Downton Abbey, The Barclay Hotel offered its guests a touch of old world elegance amidst the swirling glitz and jazz of New York City's Roaring Twenties. Gilded Age millionaires, progressive social crusaders, and world-renowned artists all found a comfortable home at The Barclay. Blue-blooded scion Harold S. Vanderbilt, legendary author Ernest Hemingway, Ambassador and famed hostess Perle Mesta, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Eugene O'Neill, and civil rights icon Martin Luther King, Jr. were among the elite guests who lived, worked, and socialized at the exclusive hotel. The Barclay Hotel: New York's Elegant Hideaway for the Rich and Famous provides a captivating inside look at the nearly ninety year history of The Barclay, which both impacted and reflected the people, events, style, and romance of its Midtown East neighborhood and New York City itself. Cindy Gueli is a writer, professor, and filmmaker based in Washington, D.C. She has taught and lectured for institutions such as American University, The Washington Center, and House of Representatives Congressional Caucuses. She completed her bachelor's degree at Georgetown University and earned two master's degrees and a doctorate in History from American University.

Re: Lyman Franklin Hulen circa 1887-1967
In reply to:
Lyman Franklin Hulen circa 1887-1967
L. F. Hulen, born around 1885-1887, for whom Mrs. Miller asked before, seems to be the same Lyman Franklin Hulen, who died in 1967.
When Mr. Hulen did mining business in Colorado, he served as president of the Golden Fleece Mining and Milling Company, Denver, Colorado (capitalized at $2,500,000). (Source: The Mines Handbook: an enlargement of the Copper handbook, Vol. 17, 1927, p. 627). The company was incorporation under the laws of Colorado in 1919 and took a lease on a fromer property of the Golden Fleece Mine (operated in 1890er years by another, but same-name company, the Golden Fleece Mining & Minning Co., Iowa) and adjoining Black Crook mine at Hinsdale County, Colo. The Company of 1919 was already out of business around 1925/1926 (Source: The Mines handbook: an enlargement of the Copper handbook; a manual of the mining industry of North America, Vol. 17, 1927, p. 625).

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!
Should I form my online retail company in CA as an LLC with S Corp tax status by filling IRS form 8832 or should I just form an S Corporation?
If I am an LLC with S Corp tax status, can I still pay myself a small "reasonable" salary and then pay myself the rest through share distributions like an S Corp can?
What can an S corp provide me that an LLC with S corp tax filling status cant?
It's a mildly subjective choice. If your CPA has no preference, I think a Subchapter S is the way to go. Each has equal legal capacity.
The above is general legal and business analysis. It is not "legal advice" but analysis, and different lawyers may analyse this matter differently, especially if there are additional facts not reflected in the question. I am not your attorney until retained by a written retainer agreement signed by both of us. I am only licensed in California. See also avvo.com terms and conditions item 9, incorporated as if it was reprinted here.Ask a similar question
Legally, they are generally the same. However, for tax purposes, they have slight differences. Consult with a corporate/business attorney and/or your CPA.Ask a similar question
Its really tough to say generally since there are advantages and disadvantages to each, although you seem to be confusing the entity with the taxation of each. A corporation (whether S-Corp or C) and an LLC are different legal entities that will each protect the individual owners from liability if properly maintained; the corporation has slightly more formalities in this regard while the LLC is more flexible.
There are some tax benefits of the S-Corp over the LLC with regards to self-employment tax savings, but the trade-off is the necessity of setting up payroll (worker's comp insurance as well if necessary) for yourself, which can be a hassle compared with an LLC where you would simply write yourself a check whenever you wish - cashflow and the maintenance of proper reserves aside.
Again these are oversimplifications and a proper analysis of your situation is warranted with a qualified tax attorney or CPA.Ask a similar question

Context-dependent acceptance of non-nestmates in a primitively eusocial insect
The benefits of cooperation are essential in driving group formation. However, an individual can gain significant benefits by acting selfishly at a substantial cost to others in the group. Thus, group members must find a balance between accepting and rejecting potential new members. Here, I explore the factors that mediate acceptance of non-related individuals during the period of group establishment in the primitively eusocial wasp Mischocyttarus mexicanus. In this species, group composition changes during establishment, with non-related females (non-nestmates) sometimes accepted into a foreign colony. By experimentally introducing non-nestmates to newly established colonies, I test the hypothesis that acceptance threshold of nestmates towards non-nestmates shifts depending on the ecological context, as predicted by the Optimal Acceptance Threshold Model. I explored how non-nestmate age (young vs. old), stage of colony establishment (early vs. late), initial behavior of the non-nestmates (non-aggressive vs. aggressive), and the behavioral response by nestmates (non-aggressive vs. aggressive) affected the rates of acceptance. My results show an effect of both non-nestmate age and stage of colony development on non-nestmate acceptance. Young non-nestmates were more frequently accepted in early than in late colonies. Late colonies more frequently rejected both young and old non-nestmates, suggesting a cost of accepting potential usurpers into late colonies. Surprisingly, non-nestmate aggressive behavior did not have a direct effect on their acceptance, but it triggered an aggressive response from nestmates. These findings reveal a shift in the acceptance threshold, suggesting an effect of the social context and the specific needs of a colony on non-nestmate acceptance.

Dolls and My Mother's Cherished Dionne Quintuplet One Named Annette
To her dying day, my mother cherished her Dionne Quintuplet doll named Annette which also became a part of my memories growing up because of seeing it from my earliest years and up until this very day of writing. It and the little wicker cradle graced her bedroom in our current home which we shared together with my husband.
That very special doll had been given to my mother when she was still a little girl and she had kept it all the days of her life.
It had obviously been played with in a robust manner and bears the scars of those joyful times.
My mother always loved dolls and was sorely disappointed that I was more of a tomboy when I was growing up. Back in those days I much preferred being outside climbing a tree, riding a bicycle, drawing a picture or reading a book than spending my precious time playing with dolls.
Paper Dolls
I do remember playing with paper dolls for a while, crimping the tabs of paper when changing outfits...but that never held my interest for long. My mother enjoyed those moments spent with her first born little girl doing more feminine things.
My two brothers who followed in birth order could have cared less about playing with dolls...paper or any kind for that matter.
We would sit at the kitchen table in our Wisconsin country home and we would evaluate the appearance of the paper cut out boys and girls with their newly attached paper frocks and talk about which ones we preferred.
We would be saying things like this: I think a pink hat on that little girl would make her dress look even prettier! Should we put a coat on her? It might be cold outside when she goes to church.
Those simple times of playing with my mother and paper dolls are treasured memories even though those play-times were not frequent.
Image of Paper Dolls
Storybook Dolls
A special double door glassed cabinet with multiple shelves held all sorts of special elaborately dressed bisque storybook dolls mounted on pedestals.
They decorated my bedroom and were gifts to me when I was a child.
Many of these 5 to 6 inch dolls were dressed in costumes appropriate to the countries they represented.
Some of my favorites were dressed as brides and bridesmaids.
It was just part of the landscape as far as I was concerned as I rarely touched them much-less played with them.
They were colorful and pretty however.
Today as collector's items, had those original storybook dolls been kept, they would be worth some money!
Did you have a favorite doll when you were growing up that you have kept and cherished?
Walking dolls
One time only did I wish to have a certain type of doll.
We were at a church carnival fair in the 1950s and fundraising tickets were purchased in booklets. My parents gave an equal amount of individual tickets to my brothers and me to be used for whatever we wished.
Pony rides, cotton candy, chances at winning stuffed animals by playing games are examples of some of the entertainment and could be accessed by using our tickets.
I used up almost all of my tickets on the chance of winning a walking doll that looked a bit like Shirley Temple with blond curly hair. Since I was not exactly a doll aficionado, I had never previously seen a walking doll that could ambulate right along next to me as I held her hand.
That special doll really captured my fancy that day!
Did I win it? No...some little girl that had only used one of her tickets ended up winning the doll. Lesson learned on taking chances! To this day I am not much of a gambler!
Later, probably for my birthday or Christmas, I was given that very doll as a gift from my thoughtful parents.
My mother was probably so delighted thinking that finally she had her little girl interested in playing with dolls! How long did it hold my attention? Little more than a nano-second.
All of my dolls including that life sized walking doll (which probably cost my parents a pretty penny) were given to some neighbors who were delighted to receive them when at my age of just turning 13 my parents and grandparents moved our families from Wisconsin to Texas.
While I got rid of all of my dolls, my mother kept her very special Dionne Quintuplet doll and it continued to move with her from home to home as the years and her circumstances changed.
Obviously Annette meant a lot to her!
With all of the hard use through the years, Annette's doll eyes had become crazed and were a bit scary looking to me when I was young.
There are cracks in her molded head, and some wear and tear on other parts of her body as well.
My grandmother had sewn clothes for her and at one time she had many different outfits according to the stories I had heard from my mother. All that now remains is a jumper or pajama and a robe in addition to some knitted little booties.
My niece who also remembers growing up and seeing the Dionne Quintuplet doll and wicker carriage always at her grandma's house will now take ownership of this cherished doll the next time she comes here for a visit. That and the bronzed baby shoes that I recently wrote about are just some of the mementos that it will be nice for her to have and hopefully keep in the family.
The Dionne Quintuplets
People all around the world became fascinated with the newsworthy event of the birth of identical girl quintuplets on May 28, 1934 in Ontario, Canada.
Dr. Dafoe with the help of two midwives delivered the quints who were 2 months premature. The largest baby girl was only 3 pounds and 4 ounces.
The Dionne Quints were the first known identical females to be born and survive and this was long before the days of in vitro fertilization where multiple births have since become more commonplace.
What subsequently happened to them would probably never be allowed to occur in this day and age.
After they were only 4 months of age, the Dionne Quintuplets were taken away from their parents and made wards of the Ontario government for the next 9 years under the Dionne Quintuplet's Guardian Act of 1935.
A media frenzy began recording their every movement and milestone.
An entire tourist industry was built by the Ontario government and Dr. Dafoe revolving around the little quintuplets.
The Dionne Quintuplets
Across the street from their birthplace a 9 room nursery was built and soon about 6,000 people a day could view the girls via an observation room.
Little Yvonne, Annette, Marie, Cecile and Emilie were dressed identically and graced the cover of Life Magazine several times when that magazine only cost 10 cents.
Picture books were published as well as calendars and postcards showing the little quintuplets.
Various advertisements such as ones for Quaker Oats and Karo syrup featured the Dionne Quintuplets.
Spoon sets and cereal bowls with the girls names on them were sold.
Movie films were eventually made about the famous Dionne Quints.
Dolls were made and many children besides my mother would have received them as gifts. They were made in various sizes and probably the best known manufacturer of them were by Madame Alexander.
My mother's doll is around 19 inches long and the head, arms and legs are all movable. The eyes open and close depending upon if Annette is upright or supine. Her size is almost like that of a real baby and many little girls in addition to my mother would have liked playing with these dolls.
With the media attention being focused on the Dionne Quintuplets for so many years of their early lives, this would have continually helped to spur the purchase of products labeled with their names.
The Canadian government supposedly made about a half billion dollars from the promotion of the Dionne Quintuplets!
Where the Dionne Quintuplets were born...
Exploitation of the Dionne Quintuplets
These darling little girls were never allowed to live normal lives and were forced to live in a fish bowl environment for all of their early years.
Quintland where they were raised and as it became known generated literally millions of dollars for the Canadian government and Dr. Dafoe also profited.
The girls were never paid a dime!
After 9 years of fighting to get custody of their quintuplets back, the Dionne sisters were reunited with the rest of their family but this also did not end happily.
Abuse of the girls allegedly took place. As soon as they were able, at ages 18, the Dionne quintuplets left their home never to return.
Dionne Quintuplet Doll
Now you know a little more about some of the dolls in my life and also the one especially cherished by my mother...the Dionne Quintuplet doll named Annette.
What do you think of how the Dionne Quintuplets were raised?

Comments are welcomed!
O Peggy I could hear the tenderness in your voice as you recalled your Momma's love for the special doll. And walking with you as you remembered your childhood dolls and paper dolls brought many memories of my own. One bisque doll in particular was a favorite of mine....she has not weathered the years very well as I played with her often.
Hoping all is good with you...thanks for the memories.
Please know that hugs and blessings are on the way via many Angels. ps
I wanted to ask if the doll of the quints that you have from your mom has a makers mark? Thanks,I cant find her anywhere.My email is email@example.com would love to find one like yours .thx michelle

Cameron flashing more than leather
SEATTLE The All-Star jersey, signed by all of the
2001 All-Stars, still hangs in his locker. The American League nameplate sits
atop the shelf. The baseball, the one he hit for a double, is secure at home.
Seattle Mariners center fielder Mike Cameron knows there's
half a season of baseball left and hopefully another four full weeks
in October but pardon him if he pauses and stares at that dark green
All-Star uniform every time he reaches his locker.
In an era when we hear players whine about the inconveniences
of the All-Star team, gripe about the travel, the long flight, and the short
break, there is Michael Terrance Cameron.
A year ago, he was best known as the guy who replaced Ken
Griffey Jr. Today, he has become not only one of the finest all-around center
fielders but a class act.
"He certainly represented everything that is right about
being an All-Star," teammate and fellow All-Star Bret Boone says. "It was so
refreshing to see. He not only was excited, but he let the world know he was
excited, and he didn't care that the world knew he was excited. He didn't hide
his feelings one bit.
"I guess what there is in him, is a freshness."
Cameron, who was the last man to make the AL All-Star team,
savored every moment. He put on his AL All-Star jersey before most of his teammates
even arrived in town, slipping it on when the team returned Sunday night before
the All-Star festivities.
"When I walked into the clubhouse and saw my All-Star jersey
hanging there," Cameron said, "it was like a little kid getting his first bicycle
on Christmas morning. I had to put it on, and I couldn't take it off."
He was so excited the next day during the All-Star workout
that he jumped on top of the Mariners dugout and shook hands and signed autographs
as if he were in a presidential campaign. He was wired for sound and had a camera
tail him for an episode of This Week in Baseball. He took ground balls
with Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez and Cal Ripken at shortstop. AL manager Joe
Torre lost track how many times Cameron thanked him after he hugged him for
the fifth time.
He actually was so hyper at one point that Indians All-Star
regular Roberto Alomar pulled him aside and said: "Take it easy, take it easy."
Sorry, Cameron couldn't help himself.
"I set a goal for myself this year to make the All-Star
team," says Cameron, 28, whose wife, JaBreka, is due in a week with their third
child. "I thought about that every day I ran onto the field. This was going
to be the biggest party in Seattle history, and I wanted an invitation.
"This is the best thing that's ever happened to me."
The All-Star Game became Cameron's coming-out party. Folks
learned that Cameron is one of the best-kept secrets in baseball, hitting .268
with 16 homers, 60 RBI and 19 stolen bases.
They heard Mariners manager Lou Piniella describe him as
perhaps the next Eric Davis, one of the finest clubhouse leaders in baseball.
Folks discovered that he and Minnesota's Torii Hunter are the two best defensive
center fielders in the American League.
They found out that he plays the game the way it's meant
to be played, hustling just like his idol, Kirby Puckett. They learned firsthand
that he is becoming as endearing and charming to the media as another idol,
Tony Gwynn.
"That's not for show, he's a nice guy," teammate Mark McLemore
says. "He's one of the best-liked players throughout the league."
Cameron might never be a Hall of Famer like Griffey, but
certainly he has the potential to be an All-Star for the next 10 years.
"I'm not like Junior or A-Rod," he says. "I know you can't
replace people like that. I just wanted people to know that, if nothing else,
they got a pretty good center fielder.
"When I got here, people reminded me of Junior every day.
It's easier now because I've answered a lot of the questions people had about
The Mariners, who traded Griffey on Feb. 10, 2000, initially
balked at Cameron's inclusion as the centerpiece of the deal. They instead pleaded
for infielder Pokey Reese.
Funny, isn't it? Today, the Mariners wouldn't trade Cameron
straight up for Reese.
ROLLIN' ALONG: The Mariners, with their fat 19-game
lead, might as well figure out their playoff rotation right now. They already
have won more games this year than in seven of their previous 24 seasons. They
don't even have to play .500 ball the rest of the way to finish with 100 wins.
Their biggest challenge might not be anyone in the American
League, but simply, complacency. What can possibly motivate a team to win in
August and September when the only question is who'll be their first-round opponent
in the AL playoffs?
"The personalities here are such that I don't see that
happening," Piniella says. "This team will play good, hard baseball, and winning
is a byproduct of that. We've just got to go out and play, that's all."
The Mariners still would love to trade for Royals outfielder
Jermaine Dye or Shannon Stewart or Jose Cruz Jr. from the Blue Jays, but it
appears there no longer is a need for an ace, not with the way Freddy Garcia
(11-1, 3.15 ERA) is pitching. He has won five consecutive decisions and has
pitched into the seventh inning in 15 of his 19 starts.
"He's one of the top three, four or five pitchers in the
league," Piniella says. "Right now, he's throwing the ball as well as ever."
DID YOU SEE THAT? Barry Bonds, who continues to
insist that he has no chance at Mark McGwire's home run record, believes life
would be a whole lot different if he played his home games at Enron Field, particularly
after seeing Padres infielder Damian Jackson hit a broken-bat grand slam
against the Astros.
"I would have had 50 at the break if I played my games
there," Bonds says. "I hit a broken-bat homer myself when Jose Lima was there.
I just laughed and shrugged my shoulders, and said, 'Hey, dude, it's not my
"People say that it's easier to hit home runs now at our
new ballpark. Hey, dude, it's tougher. It still gets cold there. I wish all
of our home games were at 10 in the morning. That's when the weather is the

Now that the air box bottom half is in position and the air box is installed, it's time to work on the air box lid. Franks write-up for air box relocation contains the required information for completing the project and fabricating the tube to required specs for proper fit. Just like earlier, I've made a few minor changes to the instructions and I used a different method to plug the air box lid outlet.
Required items for this portion of the project are a 2-3/4" OD ABS flange or equivalent (of all the parts for this project this was the most difficult to locate - it took weeks to find), 4 - 10-24 bolts with nuts and washers, Black Sensor Safe RTV silicone, and a rattle can spray paint lid from a can of Premium Rust-Oleum spray paint (this seemed to fit the air box lid outlet the best).
1. Insert the spray paint can lid into the air box outlet and, with the RTV silicone, seal the lip of the paint can lid on the inside of the outlet and allow to dry. See Figure 1.
Figure 1
2. There are three ribs that need to be removed on the large end of the air box lid. A Dremel with a cutoff wheel will make quick work of this. See Figure 2.
Figure 2
3. Trial fit the 2-3/4" OD flange to the air box lid where the
ribs were removed and make adjustments for proper fit.
4. Drill four holes on the corners of the flange with the proper size bit for the 1/2" x 10-24 bolts and four matching holes into the air box lid.
5. Temporarily install the flange and 4 each 1/2" x 10-24 bolts with washers and nuts. See Figure 3.
Figure 36. With a medium point marker, mark the lid where a whole needs to be cut for the flange.

12. Install this newly modified air box with air filter into position. See Figure 5.

Other Thoughts:
Just installed 2 of them on my rig up from 3-way sli GTX470s + GTX285 physX. and WOW what a diff. Not just frame rate wise either... I could literally see a visual difference. And remember the 770/780 have the optimized software encoding for video capture. (See my youtube chan- Same name)
However, the only diff. choice I would make would be to get the 4Gb version. There are very few game which will utilize it but if you play one of them it's worth it! Take Skyrim with the Sharpshoother EMB + grass mod. With "only" 2k textures will eat approx. 2.4Gb-2.5Gb of vram.
I sent off an email to EVGA about trading up to the 4Gb versions last night...
For kicks I decided to ramp up the fans (all 4) to full 100% and left the stock settings as to see just how well the new Boost 2.0 works. I STILL coulnd hear the gpu fans over my radiator fans, gave me a max OC of +165core and + 340Mem with no voltage adjustments and STILL did not break the 60*C mark.(Using Heaven 3.x HWBOT Ed.)
Im actually LOVING these gpu's and being an over clocker, am VERY happy I skipped the previous generation. Since Ive poped mine in on release day Ive sold 17 GTX770's and not a single one has come back with a complaint nor for RMA. Highly recommend them!

Biryani w/ dried fruit, almonds, bell pepper, and spice
This year's Christmas dinner was homey and low-key. Everyone came together and cooked, and everyone felt a sigh of relief that we were making a no-fuss but excellent meal. This dish was surprisingly outstanding. By that I mean the recipe was of Indian roots, was repurposed and gussied up by a Californian and presented as a "holiday" dish, and turned out a flavorful and prosperous union of two different cultures. Not an uncommon find in this household, but still happily surprising.2 Comments » Keep reading »

1. Concession in Ticket price:
How to get this concession:
2. Quota for allotting seats:
a) General Quota:
b) Lower Berth Quota:
If you open the document that is linked above and below too, refer point 3 (iii) in the pdf. Lower berth quota is allotted when travelling alone. Hence to avail the lower berth for senior citizens, try to book the ticket for the old person with only his/her name. Other family members will need to book a separate ticket. If there are 2 old people travelling, then book 2 separate tickets!
- There are detailed steps to book tickets in senior citizen quota from here: http://www.indiamike.com/india/indian-railways-f10/online-booking-of-senior-citizen-quota-guaranteed-lower-berth-subject-to-availabilit-t168757/
- Also, www.erail.in has a good feature of checking this lower berth quota. You can search for trains and select the lower berth quota from the drop down.

From Nevada's The Record-Courier comes this article about the problems caused by cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum) and what's being done about it. Cheatgrass is a dangerous weed because it fuels hot, fast fires that native vegetation can't recover from and that firefighters can barely control. An interesting bit of trivia in the article notes that a clump of the grass can be grazed 12 times in a season and still set seed, an impressive feat. Although cheatgrass is eaten by some grazing animals, it provides less nutrition than other plants, and if eaten late in the season, can puncture the throats of animals with its stiff, pointy seeds.

02 Mar 099 ATO extends deadline for SGC in disaster declared areasIn a media release issued on 27 February 2009, the Commissioner, Michael D'Ascenzo, announced an extension to the deadline for current superannuation guarantee charge (SGC) statements for people in natural disaster affected areas in Victoria, Queensland and New South Wales. The deadline for superannuation guarantee charge statements for the quarter ending 31 December 2008 has been extended from 2 March 2009 to 28 May 2009.
"However, I do not have discretion in relation to the nominal interest component of the charge which is charged to employers who have not made contributions to a fund on time," Mr D'Ascenzo said. Nominal interest is passed on to an employee's super fund to compensate the employee for late payments made on their behalf to their super fund by their employer.
In a broadcast message issued the same day, the ATO informed tax agents of the deferral.

The World Of My Life - Poem by Abdul Wahab
I am torn into two
Move s step forward to accept what life is
Take two steps backward not to accept
What life has given to me.
I bleed into two horns
To believe that war is another means of peace
Or reject peace to stop war
As war has terrorised me
The world of my life is cut into two
North- south, east -west
I can not show you it openly
As the weaker half resorts to war secretly.

The State of Happy
Being happy in modern times: think you can't afford?
In a consumerist era and culture of sharing, has an envy toward those who have more in your social circle got you chasing after all that shine and glitter, and robbed you of your happiness? If you are not working in sectors where the hype is, do you feel a tad unloved in social settings?
If "money equates success and happiness" is conventional wisdom, what else is there? Do you need to be rich or to experience success first before you can be happy? We live in comfortable times where we expect things to be easy and fast - are there still reasons to struggle and is it possible to be happy despite of them?
We may not be suffering from all the symptoms of "future shock", a perception of "too much change in too short period of time" as predicted by futurist, Alvin Toffler in 1970 but undeniably, growth has accelerated and so have stress and anxiety levels. How may we find sustainable happiness in a rapidly changing world?
Is entitlement the reason Millennials and Gen Z are not content with what their grandparents and parents were happy for? While some are chasing after more money and fancy titles, and some feel threatened or stressed out, there are those who have found empowerment in the new developments and have taken it upon themselves to make a dent and create the future they envisage --- inventing the next disruptive thing; championing social and environmental causes; promoting indie culture etc. What is cause for happiness for Generation Self-actualise?
Happy Psyche
It is easy to be happy when things are going well but Life does throw us curveballs.
When it does, those who are resilient cope well while those who are not, suffer.
The late Al Siebert wrote in his book, The Survivor Personality that people who are stronger, smarter and more skillful at handling life's difficulties are those who are strong in their 3-dimensions of self - self-esteem, self-confidence & self-concept - which I've come to identify as what constitute the "Happy Psyche" as these are what will help one maintain positivity regardless of situation. (Note: The details of this section are not extracted in its original form from The Survivor Personality but have been modified for the purpose of this site.)
Your overall sense of self-worth or personal value
People with strong self-esteem feel less vulnerable to the negative opinions of others. External points of reference such as job titles and paychecks are not the real source of anyone's self-esteem for if it is, once they are taken away, so does a person's self-esteem. Its real source comes from living in alignment with one's true and best self.
Your faith in your ability to do
something well
It is based on your knowledge of your abilities and strengths, which affects your attitude toward new endeavours and challenges. People with high self-confidence believe in themselves, feel in control and are more optimistic. You can build self-confidence by challenging yourself more.
Your idea about who you are &
what you stand for
Most people accept their identities according to what they've been taught or assimilated growing up, without diving deeper into their thoughts, emotions and desires. Having a healthy self-concept involves knowing your personal attributes, and being able to accept both the good and the bad. It calls for some degree of self-exploration.
Success & happiness take the same work
Invest in knowing self
People are motivated by a desire to live in accordance with their values and beliefs, and express their personality and talents. These areas govern one's core - they make you, you. Discontent or tension builds up when you keep you suppressed or compromised over long periods of time, which would then undermine your self-esteem and self-concept.
Don't let conventional wisdom or popular opinions tell you who you should be and what you should want. Grant yourself room for exploration, learn from failures; ask deep questions that will reveal your deepest emotions and desires. No one will be happy with what they want, unless what they want is what they should have. Many worked hard for things that will not give them long-lasting happiness.
Contemporary society celebrates individuality and diversity and has the capacity for it - we can be united by our differences! It is narrow-minded to think that there are only a few ways in which one can succeed, and to confine success into a narrow highway.
So, go ahead, show the World your unique appeal and skill set, and contribute to the society in your own best way. Only when we respect who we are, protect our core and honour ourselves will we love the person that we are, and would be proud and happy to be us and with what we achieve.
Exercise higher consciousness
Exercising higher consciousness is about living with intention and purpose, and doing what's right, not what's easy. The faster pace of the outside World calls for higher consciousness of our inner World lest we be dragged along in a semi-conscious state, only to keep losing our footing and stumbling over.
Most people are at best, living semi-consciously - having days running them instead of them running their days, and allowing things to happen to them instead of making things happen for them.
To exercise higher consciousness is to have clarity on self and the World; be aware of things going on; feels in control, and steadily strides forward in tandem with the rest of the World without losing sense of self and sight of personal goals.
Monitor and develop your own pace for healthy personal growth to occur. Check in to your mental and psychological state amid the demands of daily life and pay attention to deviations from your usual temperament and personality; pause or slow down when necessary.
Simultaneously, build strong mind and body - know that when you frequently succumb to instant gratifications, let yourself go or take the easy way out, the mind and body deteriorate. Discipline yourself to do the hard work to be fitter and better so you become stronger and more resilient.The mind and body are engaged in a feedback loop - when one is strengthened, so does the other. Together, they provide the confidence and vitality to meet everyday demands and challenges. This also proposes that struggles are actually beneficial but they must be consciously managed.
Work for mastery
Work for mastery, not for retirement. Success will come as a result of mastery. Know what you're good or can be good at and work towards bettering yourself personally and professionally to achieve mastery in self and your chosen vocation. Having this goal and purpose in mind keeps you motivated and anticipating the future. Independent of outcome, the process in achieving mastery brings joy through immersion, satisfaction from progress, and pride for not giving up in the face of difficulties.
Whatever profession you may be in, make time for wonder and curiosity. With a huge open resource both on- and offline, there is little to stop one from learning outside of formal education. Stay curious and keep learning.
As you hold yourself to higher standards and refuse to succumb to mediocrity, you are also raising your self-esteem, self-confidence and self-concept. Nothing gives us more pride and makes us happier than becoming a master of our chosen vocation, through which we contribute to the society. We derive meanings from our lives through giving our best to a cause greater than ourselves.
I don't collect emails; check back once a month for new blogpost.
Not a statistical norm but a life science norm.

Gen Xer. ENFP. Practised happiness for more than 20 years.
No kidding when I say I've practised happiness for more than 20 years. It is as if I knew I was going to do this at a very young age, I've made happy my daily goal since. But my version of happiness then was so superficial and non-enduring that many years on, it landed me on the exact place that I didn't want to be - a dark and unhappy place.
The rebel in me resolved to be happy again and so started a 3-year "rehabilitation" program as I like to call it, to reclaim my happiness.
Today, stronger, wiser, better and happier, I have mastered my practice and got sustainable happiness figured out!
Armed with first-person experience and inspiration from my self-study of psychology, life coaching and personal development, philosophy and mindfulness practices, came about 350daysofhappy.
I respect people's individuality and unique life circumstances; my purpose for sharing what I know is to make it open to whomever might find it helpful. I welcome broad-minded people who would like to connect, praises and polite feedback and criticisms on my works if any.

It is not true that officials at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire will be conducting room checks to make sure that students aren't reading their Bibles or the Qur'an on state property; nor will those officials be conducting bed checks to make sure the kids aren't praying before they close their eyes to sleep. But officials are doing something almost as silly by enforcing a non-written policy barring resident assistants from holding religious or political activities in the dorms where they work, even when those activities take place on the students' own time...
