Yes, but you would want to retain a personal injury lawyer to handle this, because if you try to resolve this yourself, you will likely sabotage your good claim and get a tiny nuisance settlement at best. Find a lawyer with a low contingency fee, less than 30%, so you get the lion's share of the settlement, not your lawyer. Thus, don't get hurt twice by paying a huge fee. Good luck.

You commented that my answer was incomplete, so here is what I am looking for. Since I collect Ssdi i have no lost wages which I assume would be a large part of any award. Although I will be in a cast for a total of six Weeks, this does not cause me significant monetary harm. Is it necessary to have monetary damages?
As far as ssdi, you can still make a claim. Whether or not you will be successful depends on a number of additional facts. Speak to an attorney before its too late. good luck.

The engineer overseeing the restoration efforts in the south end of False River says the recent drawdown of the oxbow lake's water level isn't directly responsible for the rash of bulkhead failures reported by residents living along the shoreline.
Gerald Babin, vice president of Professional Engineering Consultants Corporation, said faulty construction rather than the lake drawdown appears to be mostly responsible for the failures of the bulkheads, which are also sometimes referred to as seawalls.
Residents earlier this year complained to state and local officials that the lake drawdown by about 3½ feet damaged bulkheads, which are man-made barriers that prevent erosion of waterfront properties and allow property owners more land to erect things like boat launches on the water's edge.
"From the failures I've seen so far, the bulkheads were just underengineered," Babin said. "They were just ready to fail at any decrease of the water level."
Babin said that as of late last week, he had visited 17 properties along False River's 22-mile-long shoreline owned by residents who filed complaints following a meeting in January about the bulkhead failures.
Bulkhead issues he saw firsthand range from minor erosion to a few extensive failures, Babin said. He said nearly 30 property owners had filed formal complaints with his office.
The temporary drawdown ends on Friday, after it was extended an additional 45 days in March by the Pointe Coupee Parish Police Jury to aid in the construction of a containment dike designed to help improve the lake's water quality.
State officials originally gave the Police Jury authority to reduce the lake's water level from 16.5 feet to approximately 13.5 feet between September and March in order to build a containment dike and deal with siltation issues at the root of the lake's more than 20-year decline.
Babin said last week that construction of the 16.5-acre dike was complete and contractors this week will start dredging the buildup of thick sediment on the lake's floor and use it to fill in the man-made barrier.
He estimates that process will take about 90 days.
"In the South Flats, the water level is about 2 to 3 feet in a lot of places and that allows temperatures to get really warm, preventing any aquatic habitat from going on there," Babin said. "From talking to locals, I know that used to be a hot spot for a lot of fishing."
The decades of heavy silt buildup at the bottom of the lake has impeded vegetation growth and curtailed fish-spawning habitats for desired catches like trophy bass.
Babin said the containment dike, which looks like a small island, will help deepen the waters on the south end, "allowing the return of more normal water temperatures and cause more aquatic life to return."
Police Juror Kyle Olinde said the lake's water level should return to normal fairly quickly.
Olinde said Wednesday that the parish had to reopen False River's water gates — located near La. 78/False River Road — earlier this week due to the heavy rainfall on Monday and Tuesday.
"We're already close to getting the water level back to 16 feet," he said.
As for future drawdowns, which the state has proposed be done annually as the rehabilitation efforts continue, Olinde is hoping Babin's findings that the recent drawdown wasn't solely responsible for the shoreline property failures will quell any negativity surrounding their need.
"Especially if it's going to help the lake," he added.

3 Ways to Wear a Mouth Guard for TMJ
People who have TMJ--a disorder that is characterized by pain and clicking or cracking noises in your jaw when you chew, yawn and talk--often unwittingly grind their teeth at night. To prevent the tooth-grinding and the pain, wear a mouth guard at night. The guard is usually worn on the upper teeth, and creates a barrier that prevents them from meeting the lower teeth. You can't grind teeth that don't touch. If you have minor TMJ symptoms, use ready-made mouth guard, available at most sporting goods stores. These mouth guard are made of plastic that becomes pliable when heated. Boil the mouth guard according to the package directions and put it in your mouth while still warm. Your teeth will make an impression in the plastic so you can comfortably wear it.

Do you have an irrational fear of something? I mean are there things out there that scare you, that make you tremble, or get into a cold sweat? Think it is simply because, well stuff is scary, or maybe you are suffering from some phobia? It is possible, after all it seems that Head Doctors have a phobia for just about anything that gets you nervous. Hey, they gotta pay for those leather couches, when they aren't taking a nap.
I mean there seems to be a psychiatric phobia for just about anything someone is afraid of, that is irrational or some sort of mental disorder. Now, what, simply because I am gay, am I also suffering from Gynophobia? (fear of women)
I mean, yeah I know a few women that would frighten any sane person, but do I fear them just because I am a Homosexual?
Which brings up how we coin words to suit something, such as Homophobia. It is the irrational fear of Homosexuals, which is you and me, but let's be honest. That is nothing more than medical clap trap to excuse Racism. By the way, check out what the meaning of Racism is, the irrational fear and/or hatred of some group, or minority. And that is different from Homophobia how Doctor Shrink?
Then there is the lovely Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia which is an actual phobia, meaning the fear of the number 666. Not the Devil or Satan, but just a fear of the three digit number itself. Now isn't that worthy of study?
'Course there are some rather real phobias out there, that can be quite hard to live with. Yet I wonder, just how real are some of these fears? Like Phagophobia which is the fear of swallowing. Now think about that, how in the hell does anyone survive that one, because if you don't swallow, you don't eat, you don't drink, so what, you walk around with an IV stuck in your arm feeding yourself?
Do you worry about getting sick? I mean does it cross your mind a lot, that you might get some disease? Careful, because you may have Nosophobia. I am serious, you could already have that disease you are so worried about, but you need to have it confirmed by a Shrink. What is their going rate these days? Couple of hundred an hour?
Oh wait now, do you have a fear of Lesbian Women? That could be, not because your are Homophobic, but you have a phobia, an unnatural fear, of Lesbians. Has nothing to do with being a racist or judgmental, just that you are Lesbophobic. Oh I ain't making that one up, it is an actual phobia.
Maybe you are a neat freak? Don't you just hate having dog hairs or other lint on your clothes? Well don't worry about it, you are simply suffering from Trichophobia. Dislike certain animals like sharks or snakes or some other beast? Hey don't think you are an animal hater, you are suffering from some phobia or other, or in general you are simply Zoophobic. Now there, doesn't that make you feel better?
Mind you, I do have to admit, I do get very nervous whenever the wife and I go out. I really get tight chested, and even break out into a cold sweat, fearing that somehow my cellular phone might be out of service range, or worse, if I left it at home. I am such a Nomophobic, it isn't funny. NOT!

david cameron's suppressed photo
This is an artist's impression of the secret bullingdon society at oxford.david cameron is second from the left on the top row.it's no wonder that the Tories were glad to see the original removed from the telegraph on the grounds that it infringed
personal copyright.The real reason is more likely to be that the it is an embarrassingly elitist club for the very rich who get their kicks from trashing a property and then trying to pay off the owner with their parents' money and connections.Another one of those facts 'call me Dave' Cameron would want to have conveniently concealed.Boris Johnson can also be seen pictured above and it has emerged that George Osborne also belonged to the Bullingdon club. What's happening to our democracy?

2014 was a mixed year, for me. The year started well, work-wise, but after a short while, background issues at one of Angry Robot's sister companies caused the investment company who owned the Group to re-evaluate its presence in publishing, and although Angry Robot was a profitable imprint, the owners decided to act like complete arseholes and thus a period of several months of anguish began. It's worth noting that Osprey (the most senior of AR's sister companies) behaved professionally, throughout, with the exception of one senior member of staff, who had been thrust into a situation beyond his ability to manage (the Peter Principle in full effect, here), and so he – along with the investors he reported to – made a number of very bizarre calls. That was a very bleak few months, as we were largely kept in the dark as to the overall plans for the group, and what little we were told, we were prevented from relaying to our authors and their agents. I've moved away from Angry Robot, but I still keep an eye on them, and I'm delighted by the fact that they were bought out by someone who actually has a love of publishing, and not a quorum of bankers looking for a quick buck, with no regard for the actual people involved. Long may Angry Robot sail the publishing oceans!
In May, Tor.com announced a new novella programme, and announced they were looking for a team to run it, including a Senior Editor. The job looked like it had been plucked directly from my subconscious, and so, despite the fact that they wanted someone based in New York, I decided to apply for it. Weeks of interviews commenced, and in early July I was offered the role. At one heartbreaking meeting with my friend and mentor, Marc Gascoigne, I handed in my notice at Angry Robot (the only company in my working life I have ever been sad to leave). It was a very difficult decision, but I couldn't pass up what may well be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to found a new imprint with the best major genre publisher in the world! Naturally, the timing was unfortunate (Angry Robot was working through its issues at the time), and naturally, a bunch of people added 2 and 2 and reached 7.6, but the move was the right one for me, at this stage in my career.
I joined Tor.com in August, the day before the World Science Fiction Convention descended on London. It was a good WorldCon (see my report, here). What made it extra-special for me this year (apart from the exciting new gig) was my Hugo nomination. In 2014 I became the first ever British editor to be nominated for a Hugo. Which was kinda cool. From the instant I heard about the other nominees, I pegged Ginja Buchanan as the winner, and win she did. That I was convinced she would win took all of the stress away from the event, and I was able to enjoy the ceremony without any of those frustrating "what if I were to win?" concerns. I do hope that another Brit is nominated next year – there are so many that are way more deserving than I (though I won't decline if I'm nominated, again). Odd to think that I'm still eligible for Best Editor (Long Form) this year and next, due to books I've already worked on, and next year I'll move into the eligibility for the Short Form category, where the competition is just as scarily tough!
In September I Chaired my first convention – FantasyCon in York. There were a number of behind-the-scenes problems that were stressful, but dealt with (largely by the brilliant front-of-house Redcloak team). A significant number of people told me it was their favourite convention to date (or favourite FantasyCon), so that helped.
The only other major event of 2014 happened in December, when my Dad died. I won't write of it, here, as I blogged about it, already.
So, what about 2015?
Well, I want to lose some weight (2 stone would be good – that's about 12 kilos), and get fitter (I ran a lot in the second half of 2014, but it dropped off a bit). I'm also going to be at my first Guest of Honour gig at CONvergence in July (the single best convention I have ever attended, and easily my favourite).
And, of course, the first novellas I have acquired (with my brilliant assistant, Carl Engle-Laird) will come out (this coming summer).
It's going to be an exciting 2015, folks!
Yesterday we cremated my father. My older daughter (Verity) and I travelled down to Cardiff by train, and rented a car at the station – it cost a little more than driving, but saved time and stress.
The service was pretty moving (the vicar looked to be about 12 years old – maybe working toward his Scout vicarring badge) and there were a lot of people there, including some family I'd not seen in 30 years, and some I'd never met.
I said a few words. These are those words:
Let's face it – he was a stubborn old bugger.
But that's not what I want to talk about.
We know he loved his kids, and he adored his grandchildren and great grandchildren.
But that's not what I want to talk about, either.
He wasn't much of a traveller. The journey from the living room window to the kitchen was a major expedition, and the last time he left South Wales was when he visited me in York, to see Verity just after she was born, and that was ten years ago.
But that's not what I'm here to say.
When he was well enough to be out and about he had lots of friends – Doreen Jones, who he loved, Idris Morgan, his best friend in the world, and even my mum, who never stopped being concerned for him, even after they divorced.
But that's not what I want to tell you.
So, maybe I should talk about what I want to talk about, rather than what I don't.
Perhaps surprisingly, for a funeral, I'm not here to share specific memories of things he said, or things we did together. I want to tell you something that occurred to me, too late. Something that I only truly realized after I received the phone call to say he wasn't here, any more.
We lived apart for a long time. Not just distance, but in our experience of the world. The distance added to that, it's true, but in recent years we found it harder and harder to really talk. He was housebound, and so his news was limited to what he saw on TV and what he could see through the living room curtains. I live hundreds of miles away, and so most of my news was about people he'd never met.
Sometimes the silence before finding the next thing to say was painful. But then one of my daughters would start telling him something about what they were learning about at school, or what they were looking forward to doing later in the day, and his eyes would light up.
I never rang him enough. But he was always, always happy when I did.
I never rang him enough. But you could hear the absolute delight in his voice when he spoke to the kids on the phone.
I never rang him enough. I was busy – there was always going to be next week
And then I got the call.
And then I realized that there wasn't going to be a next week, that he would never again be happy to hear my voice, that the kids could never again delight him.
I want to tell my family – my brother Michael, my sister Sandra, my mother, my Aunty Pauline, my nieces and nephews and younger family members with titles too complicated to work out. I love you all. I don't see you enough. I don't speak with you enough. But know that I love you.
And when you leave here today, when you get home, think about someone who you haven't spoken to enough recently, and give them a call. Let them know you love them. Don't think: I'll do it next week. Because I thought that, and I was wrong.
I'm going to try to pick up the phone a little more often, from now on. You should do the same. Don't end up thinking, "I never rang him enough."
So, thanks, Dad. I love you, and thanks for the lesson.
I'm sorry I learned it so late.
Last night I was lucky enough to see another Broadway production. This time it was a revival of Terrence McNally's It's Only a Play - a show that ironically uses celebrity and star-power to draw in audiences, while condemning the cult of celebrity, onstage. A self-referential show that uses the power of meta more even more than a bottle episode of Supernatural.
I didn't know much about the play, going in. I like to go in blind, sometimes, and not have any preconceptions, or prejudices. I did know who was in the cast, though – Nathan Lane, F Murray Abraham, Stockard Channing, Megan Mullally, Rupert Grint, Matthew Broderick and a newcomer (Micah Stock). As the play is only running until January, I was happy to be able to get tickets.
It's the story of the opening night of a new play by Peter Austin (Broderick). His best friend (Lane) has come to see the show and support him on opening night, but also to confirm to himself that he was right to turn down the lead role.
I have to admit that I did go in with one prejudice – I liked Megan Mullally in Will and Grace, but have not been able to watch anything else she has been in without grimacing. Her performance in It's Only a Play, though, was surprisingly low-key, considering the nature of this (and her previous) role/s. I can't say I liked her in this, but I didn't dislike her, as I was expecting to.
Micah Stock, playing a coat-check boy/wannabe star was wonderful, and should get all the roles when this closes, early next year.
F Murray Abraham wasn't in the show I saw – his understudy was ok in a role that was woefully underwritten.
Stockard Channing looked as if she felt out of place. Her plastic surgery didn't help, and limited the range of emotions she was able to portray.
Matthew Broderick was the biggest disappointment of the evening – a self-consciously wooden performance. A shame, as he was one of the two main leads.
Rupert Grint surprised me. Despite being cast in a role that must surely have been written for a man at least 10-15 years older than him, his performance was confident and assured (despite an unfortunate, ill-considered scene with a glove puppet).
And Nathan Lane? Oh, Nathan Lane… Nathan Lane can surely do no wrong. The absolute highlight of the show. Thank goodness he was cast in the lead.
The play itself was a little light, and the humour a little broad – it felt like mid-career Alan Ayckbourn.
And what is it with American audiences and standing ovations? I've not yet seen a production that didn't end with a standing ovation! These should surely be kept back for superlative productions and performances? Stand at every show, and you have nowhere to go from there! What do you then do when a show is truly brilliant? (Probably best not to answer that!)
So, a relatively harmless way to spend two hours, but for over $300 for 2 tickets, I'd expect more than "relatively harmless".
I never thought I would get to be this old. No, scratch that – I never thought I would get to be this grown up. You see, for the last week or so, my wife and I have been accompanying our 10 year-old daughter on trips to various local secondary schools, to see which one we'd like for her when she moves up, next year.
Our first visit was to what we believed at the time was going to be our fall-back school. She would be guaranteed a place, but we weren't sure about it due to its reputation (a reputation that it has worked hard to overcome these last few years – somewhat successfully). We were very pleasantly surprised – the teachers were warm, the school felt welcoming, and the kids' grades were good (and improving). Our second visit was to a school that I thought would put me off completely, but which I found myself loving. But the third… oh, that was something else.
Last night we visited the third school (we have one more after this). I thought this would be our first choice. It's a local Catholic school (but with no requirement for all the pupils to be in the faith), and academically it has a decent record. The tour we were given, however, was shambolic. The 11/12 yr-old pupil tasked with giving us the tour was pleasant, knowledgable and enthusiastic, but there were too many families, too little traffic control and too much repetition (after seeing the room they use for French lesson, for example, there was little need to spend the same amount of time in the room they use for German lessons – it was, to all intents and purposes, the same room, with different words on the wall). We were surprised by how cold the school felt, too – socially, not physically. The building was lovely, but there were too few signs of childhood creativity. It didn't feel like a warm and nurturing environment, despite what the headteacher said during the speeches.
And oh, the speeches! This was the only time in all three school visits that I felt like leaving after a few minutes. The headteacher tried his best to enthuse, but it didn't come across – and this is the part that was supposed to impress the families in the room, this was the part that was supposed to sell the school to us. The worst part, though, was yet to come. Four of the pupils stood to give their speeches, to give their impressions of the school – two of the youngest (and tiniest) as well as the head girl and head boy. They were all very presentable, and they all read their speeches with enthusiasm, and their speeches were full of praise for the school. So what went wrong? It was the speeches, themselves. Now, it is entirely possible that all four pupils (2 x 11 yr-olds, 2 x 17 yr-olds) just happen to write speeches in the style of the same middle-aged marketing copy writer, but I think it unlikely. If we had been treated to speeches they themselves had written, I would not be feeling quite so ill-disposed toward this school (which has a solid reputation). The fact that these children were acting, that they were presenting words given to them as if they were their own, rankled. I felt the school was trying to deceive me. And I don't want my children to attend a school that sets out to mislead the parents into sending them there. It left a really bad taste in my mouth.
After the speeches it was time for part 2 of the tour. We declined the invitation and went home, instead.
Still, at least it makes our decision a bit easier – that's one school we no longer have to consider…
It's 10.45am on Monday the 18th of August as I write this – the last day of LonCon3 – the 72 World Science Fiction Convention. Every year I seem to find something that makes that particular WorldCon my favourite, so far –
Spokane 2015 has a lot to live up to!
I'm currently the Chair of this year's FantasyCon, so I know the amount of work that goes into running a relatively small (400+) convention. This year, WorldCon had over 10,000 members, and I understand that around 7,500 of them attended the convention. With those numbers, it was pretty inevitable that there would be some hiccups.
I got to my hotel on Wednesday – the day before the event started – and decided to register for the convention early. I had a 2.30 meeting elsewhere, but there was just enough time to register, as registration was due to open at noon. I got there at 11.50, and was delighted to discover that I was one of the first 10 people in line! Woohoo! Unfortunately, Registration was not yet ready to open, and we were informed it would be open 30-45 minutes late. This would have made me late for my appointment, so I left, and returned at 6.30. The queue was a bit longer, but not too bad, and it didn't take me long to register.
Unfortunately, there was an additional registration area for programme participants (those of us on panels) and this registration kept different opening hours. This meant I had to come back the following morning to continue my registration. I got back to Registration the following morning (around 10.00am) to find that the lines to register were about a mile long. Luckily, I only needed Programme Participation reg, but the people managing the main registration queue didn't know where that was. So I queued for the Information Desk. They knew, and directed me. I went and picked up my pack (my third visit to Registration, so far) and walked away, a relatively happy bunny.
My pack contained information on which panels I was on (I knew these), instructions on how to moderate a panel (I know this, but it's certainly useful for newbies) and a folded piece of card with my name on it (not needed, as every panel I was on had this on the table, already). What it didn't have (and what I had been told it would) was my Hugo pin and ribbon. As a virgin Hugo nominee, these are very important to me. So I headed back to the Registration (for the fourth time) to query this. They handed me a second pack, which had been misfiled, and I checked it. There was a certificate, my pin (yay) and a couple of Hugo Party invitations (one for the pre-ceremony party, one for the post-). The ribbon was missing, and I was told they hadn't been delivered, yet. I managed to pick mine up a couple of days later on my fifth visit, so all was finally resolved.
My hotel was the Ibis Styles (nicknamed the Abyss by Adrian Tchaikovsky) – the worst hotel I have ever stayed in (and I've stayed in Britannias!). Nice to see mock wooden flooring in carpet form, though – I've never experienced that. It was special.
Thursday night saw our first panel. I hosted a game of I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, with Paul Cornell and Emma Newman playing against Catherynne M Valente and Seanan McGuire. It probably took me 16-20 hours worth of prep to get everything ready for this, and I was fully expecting an audience of 20-30 as it was on at 10.00 at night on a Thursday – the first night of the convention. Not only was it full (500? 600? 700 people?) the door staff were having to turn people away. And it worked! The audience laughed where they were supposed to, they anticipated the regular gags and cheered, and there were a few rows of Americans who had never heard the show, looking suitably mystified at Mornington Crescent. I predicted – correctly – that it would be the highlight of the convention for me. The panelists were all brilliant, and a special shout-out goes to Seanan, who had been pretty ill the previous couple of days, and who still made the panel (and was hilarious). Knowing she was poorly, she even lined up a replacement and rehearsed with him. He wasn't needed, but thanks for being there, Heath!
A Literary Beer the following day went well, and I moderated a panel on what it's like to be an editor – the audience were quieter than usual at this one, which worried me, but I had a few people come up to me afterwards to say how much they enjoyed it, so that was nice.
And all through the week/weekend, I had meeting after meeting after meeting, talking about the new novella imprint I'm setting up for Tor.com. There's a lot of excitement around for this.
And then, on Sunday, we had the Hugos!
I always enjoy the Hugo ceremony. I go whenever I'm at a WorldCon. I love the pomp and pageantry, the celebration of our genre. And I called a lot of the winners, correctly, including the winner of the category in which I was nominated – Best Editor (Long Form). From the instant the nominees were announced, I'd named Ginjer Buchanan as the winner – the woman is a genuine legend in the industry, and anyone would have been foolish to bet against her. Because of my unwavering conviction that Ginjer would win, it really took the pressure off, and I found that I wasn't nervous. I wondered if I would become a little nervous as they announced my category during the ceremony, but I wasn't – not even a little. My wife (who had travelled down from York for the night to support me) found her heart beating that much faster as the nominees' names were called out, but I surprised myself by being calm, even then. And who could possibly argue with the result? As we were walking back to the hotel I asked my wife if it was odd that I wasn't even disappointed not to win. As it turned out, I came 5 out of the 5 nominees, but I'm the only British editor to ever be shortlisted in any Hugo editing category – that's a big enough win for me! (And I'll probably post my speech here, soon).
I was a little disappointed that neither of my Campbell-nominated authors (Wesley Chu and Ramez Naam) won their category, but the Campbell this year was the hardest category to call, and again – no-one could argue against the winner; any of the nominees would have been appropriate. I was delighted by Kameron Hurley winning 2 Hugos for her fan writing (Best Novel Nominee (at least) prediction for next year for The Mirror Empire) and I jumped to my feet when Ann Leckie was announced as the winner of Best Novel for Ancillary Justice. It was a fabulous year for diversity, and for the middle finger of justice to be presented to the small number of small-minded bigots who try to derail the ongoing progression that the genre is largely achieving.
It's odd to think that – even though I no longer edit novels – because of the books I've worked on recently, I'll still be eligible for the Long Form Editor award for the next 2 years, but I really hope that we'll start to see some more Brits appear on this list in future – folk like Julie Crisp, Gillian Redfearn, Marc Gascoigne and Jo Fletcher (among many, many others).
The pre-ceremony party and the losers' party were nice – folk had dressed up for them, and the writers of Game of Thrones and one of the Orphan Black writers had flown over. Doctors 5 and 10 (Davidson and Tennant) were there, too, which was nice, and I got to shake Tennant's hand and tell him I enjoyed his work. Luckily, someone had informed the bar/restaurant staff at both parties, how dangerous we genre folk can be, and so they put away anything that would conceivably be used as a weapon – glasses, crockery, metal cutlery – and replaced it with flimsy plastic versions (including plastic wine bottles!). I don't see that as being tacky and insulting to us, at all, no – it was no doubt a tragedy well-averted. And if it was all-but impossible to cut the cheese with a plastic knife the thickness of a paperback cover, well that's just the price you have to pay to stay safe.
Looking forward to the next one (in Spokane, USA, next year), and to all the great cons in between, but most of all looking forward to getting home and seeing the kids after being away from them for 9 days.
As always: in the bar.
If I'm not there, these are the panels I'll be appearing on:

NEW ORLEANS -- The New Orleans Hornets got one of their injured front court players back Monday night, when coach Byron Scott placed center Hilton Armstrong in the starting lineup against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Armstrong was given the starting nod in place of Tyson Chandler, who sprained his left ankle in a game against Indiana on Jan. 19 and is expected to be out for another couple weeks. Armstrong also left the game against the Pacers. His left knee was bothering him and he sat out the Hornets' next two games. He had to have a precautionary MRI that did not reveal any structural damage.
Armstrong, a 2006 first-round draft choice who began the season as Chandler's primary backup, has averaged 4.3 points and 2.6 rebounds in a little under 15 minutes per game.
New Orleans also was without starting forward David West, missing his fourth straight game with back spasms. Scott said he expects West to miss all four of the Hornets' games this week, but hopes he'll return Feb. 2 for a home game against Portland.
In an unusual move, Scott decided to start 2007 first-round draft pick Julian Wright, who has averaged just over 9 minutes of playing time per game through the first half of this season. Scott said he thought Wright's speed would help the Hornets match up better defensively with Philadelphia.

Here Is Why FANG Stocks Are Back
- Facebook, Amazon, and Google are currently on fire, and Netflix is again starting to catch on.
- These are the biggest users of the cloud, not just the biggest sellers of cloud capacity.
- Look for the next big thing among cloud customers.
What were called the FANG stocks – Facebook (NASDAQ:FB), Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX), and Alphabet Inc-A (NASDAQ:GOOGL) – are back on top, with the notable exception of Netflix.
Maybe it's time for a new acronym. Or maybe it's time for investors to understand why FANG was created, what it means, and how to use it to find better investments.
What the FANG stocks have in common is that they are all great users of the cloud. As Red Hat (NYSE:RHT) CEO Jim Whitehurst has said, the cloud is just enabling technology. You wouldn't see huge profits in the people who developed standard screws and bolts in the early 19th century. You won't see big profits in the cloud "arms merchants" of today.
Instead, the big money comes from using the cloud to create products and services that never existed before. Facebook invested heavily in its cloud, but it's the social network that makes the money. The same with Amazon's AWS cloud and its store. The same with Netflix' Open Connect, its content delivery network. The same with Google's search services.
What you are looking for as a cloud investor, in other words, are new, scalable services that use cloud to offer things that never existed before. Like the Facebook social network, the Amazon store, the Netflix movie house or the Google search engine.
General Electric (NYSE:GE) thinks it may have the next big thing with the Internet of Systems. Forget things, even big things like jet engines. Airplanes are systems, air traffic control is a system, a city or region's transportation net is a system. By the same token a home is a system, your body is a system, and a factory is a system. With intelligence monitors on all moving parts, and with a cloud's power controlling the whole, you make the system more efficient, more intelligent, and easier to use.
IBM (NYSE:IBM) scientists have talked about this a lot, but they haven't worked on solutions the way GE has. Vmware (NYSE:VMW) has contributed the necessary software for what GE wants to do, through its Pivotal unit, which GE has invested in. GE has also begun advertising its intentions, a series of commercials starring a young computer programmer describing it to an uncomprehending world.
Maybe Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), which finally had the break-out quarter everyone was looking for from CEO Satya Nadella, also belongs on the list. Microsoft uses its Azure cloud to sell software tools, and tools aren't the optimal play here. But perhaps it's the Home Depot (NYSE:HD) of the cloud.
The reason why "unicorns" like Uber and Theranos still draw a crowd is the hope that they can do what these other companies can do, use the cloud to revolutionize whole economic sectors, transport in Uber's case and medicine in Theranos'. But the general lesson is that the cloud is a winner-takes-all market, that if you win in the cloud you win on a scale never before seen in the history of business.
FANG, in other words, is biting back, and it's looking for new victims. You will find your next big investment idea by looking at the cloud's biggest customers.

Independence Day is coming up, and here I am, craving what seems to be commonly dubbed Cold "Asian" Peanut Noodle salad. This dish is perfect for a side or a main meal. When I want to serve my melting pot of friends, and please young and old, alike, I don't mind playing with my food – and flavors – to come up with my own Minnesota/Asian fusion version of this salad. Would that be Minasian?
These days, you never know who might show up at your cook out and what diet requirements they may have, and this recipe, although probably more American than Asian, has it all – it's chock full of vegetables, cool, creamy, crunchy and delicious with just the faintest hint of spiciness.
It's hearty enough to pass as a main dish for the stray vegetarian or yourself. The garnish of peanuts is delicious but serves, also, to flag the dish for anyone who might have an allergy.
Play with your food – add more or less of anything. If you wish, leave out the noodles and serve the veggies with lettuce cups…or make it with rice noodles and turn it into spring rolls (just add a spicy dipping sauce…)
This type of "peanut sauce" is an improvisation of the real thing: lime stands in for Kafir lime leaves, molasses for tamarind, peanut butter for roasted and ground peanuts. Play with the ingredients as you see fit, and more or less of any vegetables, or other vegetables you like. To see an actual recipe for peanut sauce, I recommend the Asian Grandmother. By far one of my favorite blogs.
Cold Asian Peanut Noodle Salad
- 4 to 8 ounces Udon noodles (or substitute soba, spaghetti or linguine)
- 1/2 cup peanut butter (choose a good one, without sugar)
- 2 cloves of garlic, smashed and minced into a paste
- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Sherry
- 1 lime, cut in half, 1/2 for serving and the juice and finely grated zest of the other for the sauce
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon molasses
- 1 teaspoon chile paste
- 1/2 small head of cabbage, sliced very thinly
- 2 bell peppers, red or orange or combination, sliced very thinly, then in 1/2
- five or six radishes, sliced thinly
- 1/2 cup snow peas, blanched and thinly sliced
- roughly crushed or chopped peanuts for garnish
- a few green onions, thinly sliced for garnish
- Remaining 1/2 lime, cut into wedges for serving
Bring salted water to a boil; blanch snow peas for a minute and then plunge into ice water. Cook your noodles al dente in the boiling water, drain and cool with running cold water. Mix sauce ingredients together, taste and adjust. Thin with a bit of water if necessary – you'll want it thick enough to coat the vegetables and noodles, but not so thick it that it stiffens up when cold. Prepare vegetables. In a large bowl (I generally use the pot I cooked the noodles in so as not to dirty another dish) toss all ingredients, except the garnishes, together. Serve cold, topped with crushed peanuts, thinly sliced green onion and a wedge of lime.

Let's talk about how to save money/time on this recipe:
- Use a coupon matching site! One of my favorites in my area is Pocket Your Dollars, but every store has a group of enthusiastic Coupon Matchers. Do not discount the savings! I check their site every week, even if I don't "need" to go to the store and often find bargains I can't pass up.
- Follow my 12 Strategies – You'll see them on the upper drop down menu of every page and how I apply them, below.
- Don't get discouraged if your prices don't match mine! Keep shopping at the best prices and your fridge/freezer and pantry will be stocked with sales priced ingredients.
- Read Strategies Applied for additional tips as well as throughout the recipe, for saving time and managing food.
Kitchen & Cooking Hacks:
Ignore Lime color when buying. Pick up several and buy the ones that feel "heavy" for their size – those are the ones that are full of juice. The lime, above, was almost yellow and one of the juiciest limes I've ever used.
Make Complicated Ingredient Lists Easy:
If you love cooking certain cuisines that seem to require a lot of ingredients, a bit of this, a bit of that, keep the ingredients together and accessible. Here's a few examples of how to make a long list of ingredients less daunting. This can be adapted to almost any cuisine you love.
- If you love the many Asian cuisines, try keeping all the condiments needed to mix up your favorite sauces and dips in one section of a fridge door compartment. Just lift compartment out of the fridge and plop it on the counter and you're ready to go.
- If Indian food is your weakness, double up your spices – rather than buy two of everything you'll need, use empty jars and divide the spices and herbs used in Indian cooking so you have two of each type. Put your little collection into a small sturdy box and you can pull it out of the cupboard at a moment's notice and not have to dig around in your spice cupboard for half a dozen jars.
- If BBQ is your passion, you may want large jars of the basics all ganged up together to pull out for your favorite rubs and sauces. Keep smaller jars in with all your spices for regular old cooking but throw large containers of paprika, cayenne, brown sugar, etc., all together in a sturdy box (plastic shoe boxes might fit the bill) so every thing is at your fingertips.
Put Your Own Spin on It:
- I don't think there is any "right" or "wrong" way of making this sauce – I've seen recipes with garlic, ginger, Shaoxing wine, Mirin, honey, soy sauce, Kafir lime leaves, Sriracha, You certainly substitute a more authentic sauce, too…I always like to put in a plug for the Asian Grandmother's blog!
- You can make this with a variety of vegetables – just choose your favorites! Cucumbers are wonderful, broccoli would be fantastic, cut small and quickly blanched. Mung bean sprouts, water chestnuts, daikon, carrots – use what you like!
- The noodles, too, seem to differ in every recipe – Udon, Soba, or even plain old pasta – use what you like.
Recipe made July 2013 for under $4.00.

I started my scan at 10am yesterday and it finished at 7:30am this morning. I had turned off incremental scanning for that scan to try and clean out the extra versions of software in my inventory. It was set to scan at slow speed because I've been having problems with the scanner.
Needless to say that plan didn't work because most of the computers were powered off by the time the scanner hit them.
I kicked another one off this morning at 10am, incremental, gather data older than 7 days. It's been running for 4 hours now, and is at 36% running at Medium speed.
The SW software is running on an older Dell server, the only other thing running on the server is WUS services. The scanner has no issues scanning my LAN but once I start scanning the remote offices it can take hours to scan one machine.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can get my scan to complete in a normal amount of time? I'd like to be able to schedule scans for different times for different network segments, but I've never been able to find a way to set that up.

I'm having the same issues. Not sure if it is just really slow or if it is not reporting back in realtime where it is in the scan. I have had to stop and start SW.
May 2, 2008 at 3:17 UTC
How are you scanning your remote offices? Because I have been have trouble going over routed subnets.
May 6, 2008 at 9:48 UTC
Hey agil,
I don't really have any issues with the scan being able to scan the routed subnets, it's just dog slow. The only issue I had was that i had to make sure the routes were defined on the SW server or it couldn't see anything outside of my LAN. We've started a project recently to upgrade some of the network gear at the satellite offices, which I hope will help with some of these issues.
I am slowly going through the process of finding out what subnets are slowest, and leaving them out of the automated scan. I am scanning the slow ones manually at the moment.
I really hope at some point the SW team add some more scheduling options to the scan. It would be helpful since I have offices in different timezones, and some are slower scanning than others. I'd like to be able to scan my LAN at high speed, the slower offices on slow, schedule west coast and east coast scans to happen at different times, etc.

Tax Day is upon us
Filed Under Politics | 11 Comments
Tax Day has arrived and it's snowing outside, which can't be a coincidence. I have no idea what that means, but it seems appropriate.
Did everybody get their taxes filed on time? Just think, right now, all the rich libs who spend the rest of the year saying wealthy people should pay more in taxes are holding guns to the heads of their accountants and ordering them to eke out every possible last-minute deduction.
Below is a column I wrote in 2006 about this annual occasion.
Tax Day Blues
Today is the day when the tax returns of all hard-working citizens of the United States need to be in the mail. Many of us are so busy in our daily lives that we never consider what is involved in this behemoth of a tax system, but the implications of "Tax Day" deserve further exploration. How did this come about, and where is it headed?
Since the dawn of man, we have been filled with a motivation to move forward. We're wondrous creatures in our adaptability and ingenuity. We've discovered fire, tools, the wheel, medicine, television, space travel, automatic garage door openers, disco and abdominizers. Seven out of nine isn't bad.
Through all those thousands of years we've been pushing our intellects to become a better, more efficient civilization. With the exception of certain alleged sitcoms and politicians who treat the public teat like a rottweiler's chew toy, we have.
Amidst all these changes, however, remains an urge in many of us that still tugs at the core of our biological makeup, just as it did a thousand years ago. Many of us, through the thousands of years gone by, have shaken this yearning, but for others it's an urge that's so overwhelming that they have stopped fighting it and now act upon it, all nice and legal like, thanks to the laws for which this Tax Day is symbolic. That lust is: "How can I get my hands on some of their stuff?"
Cave dwellers asked themselves that question, and if they didn't get what they wanted, they used their clubs to achieve those ends. These days, with obvious exceptions, human beings are far more civilized. Now, when people ask themselves how they can get their hands on the stuff of others, they simply get elected to Congress – then hire people to wield the club.
Of course, Congress won't take your stuff directly. If they did, we wouldn't be paying nearly as much in taxes, mainly because "self-imposed term limits" will never be in a politician's lexicon.
Enter the Internal Revenue Service, which gives politicians the ability to commit crimes without leaving any fingerprints on the gun, and demonstrates for us the single component that separates modern man from primitive man: Subcontracted coercion.
On this Tax Day, we're writing checks to the government for any taxes due, or awaiting a check in return for any overpayment. Some of us get excited about a tax return, but if we lent our Mercedes to a friend, and months later all we got back was a tire, a door and a windshield wiper, would be giddy about our "Benz return"?
Paying taxes wasn't always such a treacherous and confiscatory undertaking. For a long time, this country was run on very limited funds. Up until the early 1800s, the government was operated purely on internal sales taxes and revenue from a gigantic powdered wig and red-coat closeout sale. Then in 1817, the government got rid of internal taxes and functioned mostly on tariffs on imported goods. Can you imagine running this bloated monster of a federal government solely on import taxes imposed on sneakers and gag gifts?
We were created with the ability to create. All this is evidenced in the brilliance of many of our finest moments, from medicine to art to science, but that all came to an end with the ratification of the 16th Amendment in 1913. The amendment gave Congress legal authority to tax income. The kids finally found the key to the Founding Fathers' liquor cabinet.
Much of the creative energy that should be focused on curing disease, designing grand buildings, composing music, and exploring the farthest reaches of the universe, now goes into trying to figure out a way to write off our lawnmower as a dependent.
Will the 16th Amendment ever be repealed? This may mean that the tax collector would have to be sent to our homes to collect, and we'd actually see how much money is going out the door. The government knows this, which is why they would repeal the Second Amendment before even considering repealing the 16th. In other words, keep filling out those tax forms. We're in it for the long haul.
On this day, America's biggest homework assignment of the year is due. The government chose the middle of April because in the springtime, as our fancy turns to other things, we may be too busy to notice that our pockets are being picked. Even if we do notice, the politicians hope we've forgotten about it by the first Tuesday in November.

We need to go to a flat tax. No write off's, no deductibles, no EIC just a flat percentage. You could either have it deducted per paycheck (with no need to file a return) or choose to pay the percentage annually.
With this there needs to be a balanced budget amendment that also states that the government can no longer borrow money except in times of war. The government must learn to live within the taxes collected and prioritize spending based on this (just like the households of those who pay taxes).

And you have no idea how long I've lamented that. The sheer amount of energy that goes into developing tax-friendly financial products for affluent investors boggles the mind.
We have "charitable trust remainders", "Alternative Min. Tax free bond funds"..! Legions of tax atty's, fund managers.., clerks etc. All just to skirt something we shouldn't be contendning with in the FIRST place..?

To be honest, I file an extension EVERY year. No desire to be part of the herd and if it costs a little more to have the luxury and benefit of going over it w/ a fine tooth comb, then I'll PAY.
Along those lines, what Progs/LIV's don't realize is that even W-2 employees OWE the IRS. Just b/c you're not locked in mortal battle over an estate or uh… passive income on royalties etc. doesn't mean you don't "have a tax problem".
Just theirs is served in smaller bite-sized chunky chunks.

I do the same as well. I have my CPA file an extension every year (I am just not a numbers guy) as well. This way, I can have his full attention without a rush to go over it with a fine tooth comb.

And this is the reason we have not seen real tax reform out of the DC cesspool. The lobby for the tax-friendly financial products, tax attorneys, etc. have too deep of pockets not to be able to ensure the reforms do not go through.
The only way to get tax reform is to drain the swamp.

While rading the new chapter I found this picture of what Ichigo's New Bankai would possibly look like. So if anybody finds anymore fan art of Ichigo's new bankai please upload them here, or to my page and i'll post them to this blog.

You're running on a platform that isn't stooopid. Only on x86 do x86_64 processes get "faster" due to access to more CPU registers. But it comes with a cost of much higher memory consumption. On non x86 arches, such as ppc, or s390, or sparc, the 32bit process has the full register access and will run faster in 32bit mode and consume less memory than the 64bit counterpart.

I assume you want to allow access from the outside to a webserver inside.
I find it easiest to create a static route from the outside to the server in question and the create an Access Control List (ACL) to alllow the traffic type over that route
A typical setup would be as follows
access-list webin permit tcp any host xx.xx.xx.xx eq http
access-list webin permit tcp any host xx.xx.xx.xx eq https
static (inside,outside) xx.xx.xx.xx yy.yy.yy.yy netmask 255.255.255.255 0 0
access-group webin in interface outside
where xx.xx.xx.xx is the outside IP and yy.yy.yy.yy is the ip address of the webserver on the inside
hope this helps

also, try and create your rules using the cli instead of the asdm. for some odd reason i have found that they don't always take correctly when using the gui. and lets face it, the cli really is a lot less convoluted and easier.

Toure - We must beat Blues
Kolo Toure makes no apologies for Man City's bore draw with Man Utd but admits Saturday's clash with Birmingham is a must-win fixture.
Last Updated: 12/11/10 7:41am
Kolo Toure makes no apologies for Manchester City's bore draw with Manchester United but admits Saturday's clash with Birmingham is a must-win fixture.
The Eastlands outfit and their bitter local rivals played out a dour stalemate on Wednesday night with the home side coming in for criticism for their negative approach of playing just Carlos Tevez up front.
Ivory Coast international Toure believes that if City are to challenge for silverware in the top flight then they must avoid defeat against their title rivals and then take maximum points against other clubs.
"It's difficult to play against the big teams. If you don't lose against them then that is good," he said.
Long season
"But for sure this weekend it will be different as these are must-win games.
"If you want to be fighting for the league you have to beat these teams. I am not saying they are bad teams, but if we want to be top then we have to win those games.
"The most important thing in the Premier League is to make sure you beat the teams that you are supposed to beat.
"If you can do that and then draw against the big teams like United then you will be OK. You can be up there. It's a long season."
The former Arsenal centre-back has called on City's supporters to show patience with the team and manager Roberto Mancini and has warned the fans not to expect a buccaneering approach in the big games.
"We know about United. They are a top club with top players and it was important not to lose the game as we had to keep the fourth place," he added.
"When you play against the top teams, the most important thing is to try not to lose.
