Last week, amid much fanfare Samsung took the wraps off the highly anticipated Galaxy S4, and what everyone calls, it is the most eminent handset, the South Korean giant has ever come up with in the recent past in the terms of software, and also when it comes to smashing the Apple iPhone models.
Yes ! You heard it right, finally Samsung has come up with a device which has all the capabilities to dent the market of iPhone 5 completely and not only iPhone but also all the other Android heavyweights launched in the market reently. How is the tech world so sure about this? Well, there is a reason behind it!
Recently, to attest the potential of the Galaxy S4, Primate Labs, makers of the Geekbench app, took the mighty successor to their labs and did a benchmark test to check the performance of the behemoth. And the results were shocking! As not only did Galaxy S4 outmuscled iPhone 5 but also scored twice as much as the Apple smartphone. Reportedly, the Primate Labs chart also showed that the S4 is over twice as fast as the new HTC One and also S3.
John Poole's analysis quoted
The Samsung Galaxy S 4 is twice as fast as the Samsung Galaxy S 3. Given that the Samsung Galaxy S 3 is less than a year old, that's a remarkable achievement. I am amazed at how quickly smartphone technology is improving.
The Samsung Galaxy S 4 is also twice as fast as the Apple iPhone 5. Apple has improved performance dramatically in the past (there was 2.5x increase in performance from the iPhone 4S to the iPhone 5). Will they be able to make a similar improvement for the next iPhone?
Galaxy S4 scores were 3,163 was almost twice that of the Apple iPhone 5, which scored 1,596. While, HTC One took the second placed with 2,687, followed by LG Nexus 4 at 2,040. Then came Samsung Galaxy S3 (1,717) and iPhone 5 (1,596).
Well, the news is not over yet, as there is one more bit of information for those in India, who are awaiting for the handset's release at the earliest. Hold your breath guys! As Galaxy S4 is unofficially up for pre order in India online at Rs 999. Online retailer Tradus has listed the handsets on its online website, where they have noted, that interested buyers can book their Samsung Galaxy S4 online at a price of Rs 999. Once S4 will be launched in India, the site will mail a Gift Voucher Code to waive off Rs 999 from offer value and the users will be able to purchase the handset from any seller at Tradus. Not a bad deal after all!
Also the site has given the estimated time of launch and approximate price of the handset. According to the product listing on Tradus, Galaxy S4's , expected date of launch in India is schedule to be May 1, 2013 and expected launch price would fall around Rs 45,000.
For those who are still now aware, Samsung Galaxy S4, the flagship successor to the Galaxy S3has been launched running on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean OS out of the box, sporting a 5-inch Full HD Super AMOLED display with 1080p resolution, 441PPI, powered by Exynos 5410 1.8GHz Octa-core processor/Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 quad-core procesor, 2GB of RAM, PowerVR SGX 544MP3 GPU, a 13 megapixel Auto-Focus rear-facing camera with Zero shutter lag, 2 megapixels front-facing camera with 1080p video calling support, 16GB/32GB/64GB onboard storage, microSD card slot for memory expansion up to 64GB, MHL 2.0, 802.11 Wi-Fi a/b/g/n/ac, NFC functionality, IR blaster, 2,600mAh removable battery, a whole host of the Google services, and all the regular features of an Android phone.
Furthermore, S4 will also come packed with numerous software features including Smart Eye Tracking feature, S Voice Drive, S Health, S Translator Drama Shot, Air Gesture and more.

How to prepare your home to avoid a Christmas holiday break-in
Are you going to be away for the Christmas holidays? Many break-ins happen during the holidays because thieves know that they can easily clean out your house with no one around. But don't let that fear stop you from going ahead with your plans. There are ways to make your home less attractive to burglars. The majority of break-ins occur through a method called shake and break, with loose-fitting window and doors frames providing easy access, reports ABC News.
"They give the door a rattle, the window a rattle," Handyman Magazine editor Adam Woodhams told 891 ABC Adelaide's Mornings program.
"If it looks like an easy way to get in, they'll get in that way."
Mr Woodhams said windows on the side or rear of a home, hidden from the street, should be fitted with locks.
"They're the easiest way for someone to gain access and then they can open the door from inside."
According to Mr Woodhams, locks would not stop someone from breaking a window but they might deter an opportunistic thief. If you have had windows broken before, he recommended fitting security-grade laminate to hold the glass in place.
"If you're making it a little bit harder, they're just going to pass on your property and move on to the next one."
Mr Woodhams said many locks and other items that could improve your home's security were quite simple to retrofit.
"You can buy packs of window locks to suit that you can put on any kind of window or sliding door that previously were hard to secure."
Clever ideas to keep your house safe
Make your doors harder to push open
Those dumb bells with the non-slip grip can be more useful than you think. Placed behind the door in a lying down position, it actually creates resistance when you try to push a door open. This trick works best with cement, ceramic and wooden floors and you can find this dumb bell almost anywhere from department stores to fitness shops.
Secure the door with something that makes a lot of noise
You can use so many things for this from an electronic door stop that activates an alarm when the door is opened or things that make noise like wind chimes and bells. The idea is to startle a potential intruder with the noise as they most likely would not want to be discovered. You can either buy a wind chime or make your own using spoons and some string.
Put up motion-activated outdoor lights
No thief wants to be in the spotlight especially when they're doing something illegal. Having motion-activated outdoor lights will not only keep burglars away but also help you identify who is at your front door before you open it.
Reinforce your doors
Some security bars can withstand over 350 pounds of force. These can be found on eBay and Amazon.
Install a light switch you can control remotely
A WiFi-enabled light switch can allow you to control your lighting from your phone. For example, the Belkin WeMo Switch which can be found in Bunnings, lets you turn your lights on and off from anywhere in the world with WiFi.
Put up a security company's sign
Just as with a non-working camera, put up a security company's sign on your home's external wall stating that your home is being protected, but don't pay for the service, says Time.
A generic alarm system sign sells online for less than $25, and Brinks and ADT security signs are $9 to $25 on eBay. Again, the point is to make burglars think twice before trying to break into your home.


text: Transcription of rRNA genes is controlled by epigenetic activation and repression (reviewed in McStay and Grummt 2008, Goodfellow and Zomerdijk 2012, Grummt and Langst 2013). About half of the roughly 400 rRNA genes are expressed and these have the modifications of active chromatin: unmethylated DNA and acetylated histones. Repressed genes generally have methylated DNA and histone H3 methylated at lysine-9. Regulators of repression include the eNoSC complex, SIRT1, and the NoRC complex.

ROME (AP) — Officials say a German woman who was listed among the missing from the cruise ship grounding off Italy has been located alive in Germany, bringing the number of people still unaccounted for to 21.
The Grosseto prefect's office says Gertrud Goergens identified herself to police. Her name was removed from the official list of missing late Wednesday.
Italian authorities released the names of the missing Wednesday as the search for passengers and crew aboard the Costa Concordia was suspended because the ship shifted slightly from its perch on rocks off the Tuscan island of Giglio.
So far 11 bodies have been recovered; 21 people remain unaccounted for. The names of passengers and crew listed as missing by Italian authorities after the cruise ship Costa Concordia struck a reef Friday and capsized off the Tuscan coast. More than 4,200 people were aboard the ship.
Officials have confirmed 11 dead but most have not been identified yet.

REMOVAL & INSTALLATION M20 Engine
See Figures 1 and 2
- Remove the cylinder head.
- Remove the rocker shaft and rocker arms.
- Remove the bolts holding the camshaft retainer and slide out the camshaft. Be careful not to damage the bearing surfaces while pulling out.
- Slide the camshaft carefully into to the cylinder head.
- Check the seals and replace if necessary.
- Install the camshaft retainer, rocker arms and rocker shafts.
M30 Engine
- Disconnect the negative battery cable. Remove the oil line from the top of the cylinder head.
Observe the location of the seals when removing the hollow oil line studs. Install new seals in the same position.
- Remove the cylinder head. Support the head in such a way that the valves can be opened during camshaft removal.
- Adjust the valve clearance to the maximum clearance on all rocker arms.
- A tool set 11 1 060 and 00 1 490 or its equivalent, is used to hold the rocker arms away from the camshaft lobes. When installing the tool, move the intake rocker arms of No. 2 and 4 cylinders forward approximately 1 / 4 inch and tighten the intake side nuts to avoid contact between the valve heads. Turn the camshaft 15 degrees clockwise to install the tool. On these engines, to avoid contact between the valve heads, first tighten the tool mounting nuts on the exhaust side to the stop and then tighten the intake side nuts slightly. Reverse this exactly during removal.
- Remove the camshaft by rotating the camshaft so the 2 cutout areas of the camshaft flange are horizontal and remove the retaining plate bolts.
- Carefully, remove the camshaft from the cylinder head.
- The flange and guide plate can be removed from the camshaft by removing the lock plate and nut from the camshaft end.
- Install the camshaft and associated components in the reverse order of removal. Swap over the guide, flange and nut from the old camshaft to the new camshaft if replacing the camshaft.
- After installing the camshaft guide plate, the camshaft should turn easily. Measure and correct the camshaft end play. It should be 0.0012-0.0071 inch (0.03-0.18mm). Replace the guide plate if necessary to bring into range.
- The camshaft flange must be properly aligned with the cylinder head before the sprocket is installed.
- Install the oil tube hollow stud washer seals properly, 1 above and 1 below the oil pipe. The arrow on the oil line must face forward.
- Install the cylinder head. Adjust the valves.
M42 & M50 Engines
See Figures 3 through 8
- Disconnect the negative battery cable. Remove the head.
Special tools are required to perform this operation. Bmw tools 11 3 260, 11 3 270 and 11 3 250 or their equivalents are required for proper removal and installation of the camshafts and for retention of the valve lash compensators. Without these tools the camshafts will be damaged during removal or installation.
- Remove the spark plugs and attach the 11 3 260 (plus addition 11 3 270) camshaft removal fixture. Torque the hold down bolts in the spark plug bores to 17 ft. lbs. (23 Nm).
- Apply load to the bearing caps by rotating the eccentric shaft. This relieves the tension on the bearing cap bolts. Loosen and remove the bearing cap bolts.
- Remove the camshaft removal fixture after releasing the tension from the eccentric shaft.
- Remove the camshafts and the bearing caps. Note that the intake camshaft is marked `E' and the exhaust camshaft is marked `A'. The camshaft bearing are consecutively numbered with `A' or `E' to designate intake or exhaust side.
- Hold the valve lash compensators in place using tool 11 3 250 or equivalent, and remove the bearing plate along with the valve plungers.
- Inspect the camshafts and valve lash compensators for damage and wear and replace as necessary.
- Install the camshafts with the cylinder number 1 intake and exhaust cam peaks pointing at each other. The flats on the sprocket ends of the camshafts should be parallel. The exhaust camshaft is marked with a notch on the flange.
- Install the fixture. Place the bearing caps into position and press the caps down with the tool. Torque the bolts to 10-12 ft. lbs. (13-17 Nm).
- When the camshafts have been removed and reinstalled a waiting period dependent on the ambient temperature is necessary before mounting the cylinder head on the engine. At room temperature wait 4 minutes to allow the lifters to compress fully. At temperatures down to 50° wait 11 minutes. At temperatures lower than 50° wait 30 minutes. This is to prevent contact between the valves and the piston tops.
- The engine may not be cranked under the same conditions as above for a period of 10 minutes at room temperature; 30 minutes for temperatures down to 50° 75 minutes for temperatures below 50°.
S14 & S38 Engines
To perform this operation it is necessary to have a special tool 11 3 010 or equivalent. This is necessary to permit safe removal of the camshaft bearing caps and then safe release of the tension the valve springs put on the camshafts. The job also requires an adapter to keep the camshaft sprockets from turning while loosening and tightening their mounting bolts.
- Disconnect the negative battery cable. Remove the cylinder head cover. Remove the fan cowl and the fan.
- Remove the mounting bolts and remove the distributor cap. Remove the mounting screws and remove the rotor. Unscrew the distributor adapter and the protective cover underneath. Inspect the O-ring that runs around the protective cover and replace it, if necessary.
- Remove the 2 bolts and remove the protective cover from in front of the right side (intake) camshaft. Remove the bolts and remove the distributor housing from in front of the left (exhaust) side cam. Inspect the O-rings, and replace them, if necessary.
- Remove the 6 mounting bolts from the cover at the rear end of the cylinder head and remove it. Replace the gasket. Note that on the S14 engine, 2 of these bolts are longer. These fit into the 2 holes that are sleeved.
- Remove the 2 socket head bolts, located at the front of the head, which mount the upper timing chain guide rail. Then, remove the upper guide rail.
- Turn the crankshaft to set the engine at No. 1 cylinder tdc. On the S14 engine, valves for No. 4 will be at overlap position valves just slightly open with timing marks at tdc. On the S38 engine, valves for No. 6 will be at overlap position valves just slightly open with timing marks at tdc.
The next item to be removed is a plug which keeps the tensioner piston inside its hydraulic cylinder against considerable spring pressure. Use a socket wrench and keep pressure against the outer end of the plug, pushing inward, so spring pressure can be released very gradually once the plug's threads are free of the block.
- Remove the plug from the tensioner piston, and then release spring tension. Remove the spring and then the piston. Check the length of the spring. It must be 6.240-6.280 inch in length; otherwise, replace it to maintain stable timing chain tension.
The timing chain should remain engaged with the crank-shaft sprocket while removing the camshafts. Otherwise, it will be necessary to do additional work to restore proper timing. Keep the timing chain under slight tension by supporting it at the top while removing the camshaft sprockets.
- Pry open the lock plates for the camshaft sprocket mounting bolts. Install an adapter to hold the sprockets still and remove the mounting bolts.
- Using an adapter to keep the sprockets from turning and putting tension on the timing chain, loosen and remove the sprocket mounting bolts, keeping the chain supported.
- Mount the special tool on the timing case, which mounts to the top of the head. Then, tighten the tool's shaft to the stop. This will hold both camshafts down against their lower bearings. Also, mark the camshafts as to exhaust and intake.
- Remove the mounting bolts. Mark the camshaft bearing caps. It is possible to save time by keeping the caps in order, although they are marked for installation in the same position.
- Once all bolts are removed, slowly crank backwards on the tool's shaft to gradually release the tension on the camshaft bearing caps. Once all tension is released, remove the tool.
- Carefully, remove the camshafts in such a way as to avoid nicking any bearing surfaces or cams.
- Oil all bearing and camshaft surfaces with clean engine oil. Carefully, install the camshafts, marked E for intake and A for exhaust, to avoid nicking any wear surfaces. The camshafts should be turned so the groove between the front camshaft and sprocket mounting flange faces straight up. Install the special tool and tighten down on the shaft to seat the camshaft bearings.
- Install all bearing caps in order or as marked. Torque the attaching bolts to 15-17 ft. lbs. (20-23 Nm). Then, release the tension provided by the tool by turning the bolt and remove the tool.
- Install the intake sprocket (marked E), install the lock plate, and install the mounting bolts. Use the adapter to keep the sprocket from turning, and torque the bolts to 6-7 ft. lbs. (9 Nm). Do the same for the exhaust side sprocket. Make sure the timing chain stays in time.
- Slide the timing chain tensioner piston into the opening in the cylinder in the block. Install the spring with the conically wound end facing the plug. Install the plug into the end of the sprocket and then install it over the spring. Use the socket wrench to depress the spring until the plug's threads engage with those in the block. Start the threads in carefully and then torque the plug to 27-31 ft. lbs. (37-42 Nm).
- Crank the engine forward just 1 turn in normal direction of rotation. Now, 1 camshaft groove on each side should face toward the center of the head and 1 on each side should face the case boss on the front bearing cap. Lock the sprocket mounting bolts with the tabs on the lockplates.
- Reverse the remaining removal procedures to complete the installation. Before final tightening of the mounting nuts for the guide rail for the top of the timing chain, go back and forth, measuring the clearance between the sprockets and the center of the guide rail to center it. Then, tighten the mounting nuts.
The camshafts should be inspected for wear and damage. The most common form of wear on the camshafts is flattened cam lobes. It is not uncommon to find 1 or more lobes completely worn into a circle. The camshafts should be checked for wear on the bearing surfaces. The camshaft do not use separate bearing so the bearing surfaces in the head or camshaft housing should be checked. If any damage is found, the head or camshaft housing will need to be replaced.

Violence of Inscriptions
The term 'structural violence' refers to implied systemic and latent forms of exclusion or oppression that emerge on social and political localities. Violence of Inscriptions questions the potency of artistic, discursive, and action-based practices to critically reflect on this subject. The project examines bodies that are subjected to structural violence, and focuses on the performative and physical aspects that surface as a result. It examines the role of the body in producing, maintaining, legitimizing, representing, and aestheticizing structural violence.
The notion of inscription stems from choreographic concepts and practices of writing; inscribing in and into material and immaterial spaces. This notion draws viewers' attention to the consequences of our individual and collective actions. It underlines the presence of structural violence - its narration and history.
Violence of Inscriptions is a collaborative project, facilitated by HAU – Hebbel am Ufer in Berlin. It is an ongoing dialogue between Zaides and dramaturge, curator and scholar Sandra Noeth. The project began in 2016 and will unfold in five chapters until 2018. Each chapter aims to break down the complexity of the topic by examining the ideological, personal, political and ethical dynamics that are at stake. Each chapter brings together artists, thinkers, and human-rights activists for an intensive work session. The diverse perspectives of each participant provide the initial material for the discussion. The sessions are followed by a public program at HAU – Hebbel am Ufer, which includes lectures, roundtables, screenings, and installations.

Karbi Longri N.C.Hills Liberation Front (KLNLF) threatened of blockade along NH-39 at Karbi Anglong, if its leader Augustine Kramsa, who was allegedly abducted by the NSCN (I-M), was not released "unharmed and unconditionally" at the earliest. Addressing a press meet here Sunday, KLNLF publicity secretary R. Tera disclosed that the outfit's leader Augustine Kramsa alias Arnold Ronghang was abducted from his Purana Bazar Dimapur residence by 15 to16 NSCN (I-M) activists on October 16 at around 11 a.m. The KLNLF appealed to the NSCN (I-M) for the safe release of Augustine at the earliest, failing which, Tera said the outfit would be compelled to call for a blockade along NH-39 at Karbi Anglong. Tera said Augustine Kramsa was married to a Naga woman and resides in Purana Bazar, Dimapur.Correspondent

I just started playing yesterday, and my inventory is almost 100/100 full. I'm going to have to try selling some stuff, but I have no clue how much things sell for. Is there a way to get a sense of how much to sell things for without having to search the wards for each item and browse through everyone's retainer for each item?

March 21, 2011
Written by Mark Remy.
Thank you to McRunner for all of the support he has given to RMHC-CNI. Currently at over $27,000 raised, he has helped provide a 'home away from home' for so many families with children in the hospital
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote here about a fellow named Joe D'Amico, an Illinois man preparing to run the L.A. Marathon on a strict McDonald's-only diet.
The idea was that Joe would eat nothing but food from McDonald's — with a handful of minor exceptions, such as multivitamins and the odd energy gel — for the final 30 days leading up to today's race. The whole thing was a bit of a stunt, geared toward raising money for the Ronald McDonald House. (Joe did not and does not have ties to McDonald's; he is, in his words, just "a regular guy" who likes running. And fries.)
Joe's story went viral, as did the link to his blog, McRunner.com, caroming from one end of the web to the other. Wherever the story appeared, folks seemed to have two basic questions:
1. Is this guy nuts? And
2. How can you possibly run a marathon after a month of burgers and hotcakes and Cokes?
Well, I had the privilege of speaking with Joe by phone today, after his race, and I can answer both of those questions:
1. No, he's not nuts. Or at least no nuttier than any other marathoner. (In fact, he sounds like an exceedingly nice and thoughtful guy.) And
2. Very quickly, as it turns out.
Here are highlights of our chat:
RW Daily: You ran a 2:36:14 today. [ED: !!!] You were going for sub-2:36, right?
Joe D'Amico: Yeah. My personal best before this was 2:36:54.
So you ran a PR.
Yeah, a PR. I don't know how someone ran a 2:06 today. [ED: Markos Geneti of Ethiopia won the race in a course-record 2:06:35.] That's amazing.
At least you beat the sumo guy, right?
I did! I think I nipped him at the wire.
Your splits looked really even. Did you feel good the whole time?
I did.
You ran to raise money for Ronald McDonald House.
Yeah, I think we're at around $27,000 right now. In just two weeks!
And the folks at McDonald's had nothing to do with this?
Yeah, it's just something I came up with. I looked at the domain name [McRunner.com], and it was open, so I thought, "Yeah, this would be fun." I certainly had no intentions of it turning into this. I thought it'd be something I would share with my running club, my friends and family.
Did you have a single favorite McDonald's meal?
It was and still is truly the hotcakes. That was something that had become sort of a staple. We'd do a morning run and I'd jet on over to McDonald's and have hotcakes. That still is my favorite.
After the race, what was your first non-McDonald's meal?
We found an Italian place. We had salad, pasta, and some pizza. Pizza was something I'd been looking forward to, especially, being from Chicago. I'd often have deep-dish pizza the night before a long run.
Did you feel any different training on this diet? Better, worse? More energy, less?
I feel as good as I've ever felt. I actually ended up losing a bit of body fat during all of this.
And your cholesterol levels actually improved.
Yeah! My doctor was very happy. My blood sugar was in line. Everything else was really good.
You spoke with your doctor before embarking on this 30-day diet?
Yeah. We agreed to do some blood tests to establish a baseline. My doctor said, you know, there's not going to be any long-term effect. He was a bit surprised with the latest results. I was surprised.
Did you ever "cheat"? And if not, can you recall a time you were particularly tempted?
I'm shocked that people have not asked me that! I absolutely did not cheat. In fact, I didn't even have gum. I had nothing outside of what was on that list. [ED: The vitamin, ibuprofen, etc.] Tempted? No. I thought it would be more difficult than it was. But once I made the commitment – and especially after more than, like, 42 people knew about it – it came very easy.
In fact, I originally wanted to do 60 or 90 days [of McDonald's-only food]. I thought, "Thirty days? That's not a challenge." But for the sake of my wife's sanity, I chose 30 days.
Do you think you'll replicate this experiment again in another race? Or was this a "one and done" kind of thing?
This was definitely "one and done," in terms of the food. What I would like to do is see if we can take this idea of giving back and having fun at the same time to another level. We've had so much fun with this.
What's next?
After the last [marathon], I took two weeks off. This one, I owe it to my family and to my body – I'm taking three weeks of complete downtime.
I train with a group that reinforces this idea that "miles make champions." And I do put a lot into running. My log says it. You don't hit 100-mile weeks without putting a lot in. But I started out running a few days a week, I've gone through my series of injuries and just plugged along to get to this point. Hopefully people see that as part of this story too. They don't just focus entirely on these 30 days but on the bigger story, which is somebody who's really put a lot in and has been able to get some results.
And given a lot back.
Yeah. And that's what I'm most proud of. We've raised so much money and touched so many people. I'm certainly more proud of that than I am of a time. People beat me today, people will beat me tomorrow. The time is just that. But the good we've done will continue on.

We got married in Gibraltar in August. What a wonderful week! We stayed at the Caleta on the recommendation of our Wedding Planner Monica, at Hour Weddings. She wasn't wrong, my goodness they looked after us. My husband suffered a life threatening illness 12 weeks before the wedding, leaving him in a wheelchair - the hotel could not have been more helpful. They moved us to a room with great disabled access and made sure we had everything we needed, and more besides. We stayed from 2 days before the wedding to 4 days after and every single day was special. On my wedding day I felt like a princess. Special thanks to Kevin - your such a star! Our room - and the 4 our guests stayed in was spotless - beautiful in fact.
We had SUCH a great stay we went back for Remembrance weekend earlier this month, again it was beautiful. This time my husband was on his feet and the absence of the wheelchair was noted by staff - personal touch is rare. Great food in the bar, great service throughout, perfect weekend that left us refreshed and rested. We will be back very soon. Thank you so much to everyone at the Caleta.
If I had a down side it would be that it is pricey to stay - but all the good hotels on Gibraltar are pricey - fact of life.
It is out of town a little too, we like that, but if you want to be in the heart of things you won't get that here - but it is only a 5 minute car ride or the bus stops right outside the front door - every hour or half hour I think.
Being out of town makes it very quiet - some of the more central hotels have traffic noise problems. That's personal preference.
On the whole - Caleta you have a regular.
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Orbitz, Booking.com, Travelocity, Hotels.com, Priceline, Expedia, Cancelon, TripOnline SA, Cheap Tickets, Hotwire, Agoda and HotelQuickly so you can book your Caleta Hotel reservations with confidence.

Someone stole half of our wood pile. Really. I don't know when or who or why or least of all how. But it is definitely gone.
Someone actually backing up a truck and hauling out each piece of wood in the dark of night seems a little unlikely. But the only other possibilities I can think of are even more unlikely. Aliens? Probably not. Vanishing into thin air? I doubt it. We unknowingly used half of the wood pile? Nope. We've only built two fires since we've lived here and that was several months ago. I know for sure that our wood pile was twice the size that it is now as recently as a month or two ago.
As to when, I can only assume it was when Josh and I were gone for his birthday weekend. Usually the cars are parked right in front of the wood pile and the thief would have had to weave in between the cars as he (or she, let's not be sexist here) hauled the wood back and forth. But when we went away for the weekend both of our cars were gone, resulting in easy access to the wood.
Who could have done this is an absolute mystery to me. I doubt it could have been just ONE someone. I can't imagine moving half a wood pile by myself. I'm sure whoever did this probably needed the wood really bad. Maybe they can't afford any heating at all and their little newborn triplets are freezing to death as we speak. Either that or they are going to turn around and sell it for some exorbitant rate. I sure hope it's the former because we cut and split and hauled and unloaded and stacked all that wood ourselves.
I feel so violated. I know they didn't invade my home or anything. And I'm sure that it's not personal. But I'm just creeped out by the idea that unbeknownst to me, someone was skulking around my driveway shamelessly hauling out my wood and taking it for their own.
My only consolation is that the triplets are warm. But if it was cold-heartedly stolen and then sold right away for profit, and our power goes out for any length of time and we need wood to heat ourselves and we run out of wood and MY kids are freezing to death, then there will be hell to pay. Not really because there is nothing I can do about it. Dang it.

Do you have the same problem with your 5.0 installation, or is this unique to 5.1?
Does the Configuration tab on the problematic devices show AV installed?
If so, where in the app are you noticing SEP as missing? The Security Center widget on the Dashboard?
Does the Tools -> Rescan function have any effect?
Mar 3, 2011 at 6:03 UTC
No, there is no such issue in 5.0
No, 'Configuration' tab does not show AV installed.
Rescan doesn't solve this. Paul (Spiceworks) has rescan logs for the other issue, but AV do not appear for the same machine.
Mar 3, 2011 at 7:31 UTC
My fault. Double checked this morning.
5.0 - the sme issue.
Configuration tab does not show AV until rescan.
Rescan do the trick.
Mar 3, 2011 at 9:39 UTC
Rescan do the trick.
Do you mean the problem is resolved in 5.0 and in 5.1 with a Rescan, or does the problem persist in 5.1?
Mar 3, 2011 at 9:43 UTC
Works in 5.0 and 5.1 with the personal rescan of the device. Full rescan of the network do not add antivirus to Device configuration shown in both versions.
Mar 3, 2011 at 2:49 UTC
Works in 5.0 and 5.1 with the personal rescan of the device. Full rescan of the network do not add antivirus to Device configuration shown in both versions.
Ok, let's see what the hangup is with 5.1 (on full network scans) then.
Try these steps in 5.1, after doing a fresh install and dropping in your 5.0 data:
- disable Incremental Scanning
- Scan Speed - slow
- Verbose scan logging - enabled
Does this happen in a fresh 5.1 installation too?
Mar 3, 2011 at 3:23 UTC
Updating data from 5.0 right now. Takes a while :-)
Will post the results tomorrow.
Mar 4, 2011 at 11:20 UTC
Fresh install of 5.1, data moved from 5.0, all the settings done - same result.
32,35 % recognized against 74,65% in our production 5.0 (I rescanned manualy every machine in production system).
Mar 4, 2011 at 11:37 UTC
Great - thanks for all the testing there.
Ok - so for those devices were SEP isn't detected:
- does SEP show in the Software listing?
- does SEP show in the Configuration tab?
Please run two rescans one on a device that works in 5.0, and another rescan on the same device that fails in 5.1.
Then send me your logs and we'll sort this out.
Mar 4, 2011 at 11:54 UTC
SEP is shown in Software listing.
Configuration tab has Antivirus - 'non-detected'.
Manual rescan of any one machine at a time discover AV both in 5.0 and 5.1
Full network scan does not discover AV Software on some of machines both in 5.0 and 5.1
Mar 4, 2011 at 12:01 UTC
Send your logs and I'll take a look at why the network-wide scan is failing. If a rescan solves it in both cases then there must be a problem during the network-wide scan.
Mar 9, 2011 at 1:13 UTC
Denis, thanks for sending your logs in. I'm reviewing them now.
Can you give me a few hostnames to compare between 5.0 and 5.1?
Even just one would be helpful; which device scanned in properly in 5.0 and fails to find SEP in 5.1?
Mar 9, 2011 at 1:46 UTC
I can't do it for sure now. I already run manual rescan on all devices without AV in production 5.0. I believe there wasn't any difference betweeb two versions.
Its hard to say who got AV and who doesn't in 5.1 as well. For some reason in Build 2 I can't open appropriate group from 'Security Center' chart (worked in Build 1).
Mar 9, 2011 at 3:05 UTC
Denis, you should be able to find a device in the Inventory, by viewing the Devices group, and clicking through a few of the workstations.
View the Configuration tab to see if the AntiVirus is "up-to-date" or not.
Try this out in 5.1 and let me know! :)
Mar 9, 2011 at 3:30 UTC
alexkt-pc - detected
alexr3-pc - not detected.
Not sure, that this was done during the logged scan as the data moved from 5.0 and contains all the history for workstations.
Mar 9, 2011 at 4:02 UTC
This was logged in 5.1 for alexr3-pc:
I[14:52:00.93 bb1f2c] filling alexr3-pc.AntiVirusProduct.
D[14:52:00.95 bb1f2c] ignoring av sw match for Symantec Endpoint Protection because it is in list already: [{"name"=>"Symantec Endpoint Protection", "vendor"=>"Symantec", "up_to_date"=>true, "version"=>"11.0.6100.463"}]
which means it should list an AV.
Could you post a screenshot of what is listed for "AntiVirus" from the Configuration tab for this device in 5.1, as well as a screenshot of the Software listing for this device from 5.1?
Mar 9, 2011 at 4:10 UTC
Sorry, Ben.
My fault. It's vice versa:
alexkt-pc - not detected
alexr3-pc detected.
Mar 9, 2011 at 4:18 UTC
Ah I see. The logs show the AV was detected for both, so I'd like to take a closer look. I emailed you instructions on sending me your data.

Weekly MaxWellness - 8/22

What you need to know this week in the world of wellness, compiled by our in-house mobile wellness geek extraordinaire, Taylor Pechacek. If you want this automatically delivered to your email address once a week, go ahead and subscribe here.
A virtual shrink may sometimes be better than the real thing
- ELLIE is a psychologist, and a damned good one at that. Smile in a certain way, and she knows precisely what your smile means. Develop a nervous tic or tension in an eye, and she instantly picks up on it. She listens to what you say, processes every word, works out the meaning of your pitch, your tone, your posture, everything. She is at the top of her game but, according to a new study, her greatest asset is that she is not human.
Guess what? Doctors don't care about your fitbit data.
- Those are pretty ideas, but health wearables, at least so far, have very little to do with real health careissues, the ones that are costing the U.S. billions to treat every year. For the most part, health wearables are worn by the "wealthy and well."
[DATA VIZ] A years worth of messages in twelve beautiful charts
- What does a year's worth of communication look like? For eight years now, designer Nicholas Felton has been tackling that question with his annual report, compiled from exhaustive logs of every email, text, and conversation he participated in all year. This year's version is particularly dense, laying out the messages geographically, by vocabulary, and plotting pleasantries vs. content in the final page.
6 Wearables that help regular people live with dangerous health conditions
- Health concerns have, arguably, been the major force driving the recent explosion of wearable tech. Over the past couple of years, simple fitness trackers like the Jawbone Up and Fitbit's various iterations have seemingly become nearly as ubiquitous as the smartphones they tether to, while their basic step counting and calorie monitoring has become baseline functionality in the smartwatch space.
14 private digital health companies shared their 2013 revenues
- Some digital health companies on the list, like Vitals and Imprivata, have made several announcements over the last few years, while others, like BestDoctors, have remained relatively quiet. These are the 14 digital health companies that Inc said have grown significantly over the past three years.
Healthsense raises $10M for remote patient monitoring products
- Medical device maker HealthSense raised $10 million in equity, debt, and securities in a round led by Mansa Capital with additional investment from existing investors Merck Global Health Innovation Fund and Radius Ventures. Another existing investor that wasn't mentioned in this round is Fallon Community Health Plan.
[EXCLUSIVE] Aetna to shut down CarePass by the end of the year
- "At this time, we have decided to make no further investments in the CarePass platform," an Aetna spokesperson told MobiHealthNews in an email. "Current CarePass users will continue to have access to the CarePass platform for the time being, but we plan on closing the CarePass web and mobile experiences by the end of this year. In addition, we will not be conducting pilot programs with Aetna plan sponsors that were previously reported."
One Codex wants to be the Google for genomic data
- As hospitals and public health organizations switch to using genomic data for testing, searching through genomic data can still take some time. Y Combinator-backed startup,One Codex, wants to help researchers, clinicians and public health officials, who have sequenced more than 100,000 genomes and created petabytes of data, to search this data.

Listed Australian satellite company, NewSat has sealed a new $30 million contract with a South Australian reseller for Jabiru satellite transmisssion capacity.
{loadposition peter}Under the three-year contract with NewSat (ASX: NWT), the unnamed reseller has purchased transmission capacity on the Jabiru satellite over Afghanistan.
NewSat Founder and CEO, Adrian Ballintine, said payment in full had been agreed with the customer and was expected before the end of this month.
���Afghanistan continues to have an insatiable appetite for communications, and the high throughput Ka-band satellite capacity is obviously hitting a sweet spot with our customers in the region.���
According to Ballintine the latest contract for US$30 million, took the total of Jabiru pre-launch customer contracts to over US$600 million. ���Lockheed Martin is now six months into the Jabiru-1 satellite build and on schedule for a 2014 launch with Arianespace. Export credit debt funding continues to progress extremely well.���

Yahoo is building what they say 2-stage hierarchical model. I am not arguing that they use EM etc. to solve individual stages. I understand that. I am not arguing that they are primarily motivated by solving cold start problem. I understand that as well. but what they build is similar reasoning, if not the same, as here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_Bayes_model Is it not? It is possible i am mixing things here, this hierarchy is not directly Bayesian, but motivation here is similar? I am just saying that we can generalize problem to hierarchies that don't have to be 2-stage. That's all. I am also saying that a practical problem i have at hand is also more than 2 stage. I don't know what would be the best way to solve it. But it seems to me that hierarchical learning analogous to these could be extended to a more general case with multiple hierarchies on the side info or even user/item content profiles. For example, say sometimes user & item interact and you always know time of the day when it happen. (just sheer example). but sometimes (far from always) you also happen to know the weather. or/and Geo where it happen. Can't we make use of that information with an addiiton of another stage to the hierarchy?

I'm a white female in my 2nd year of college. I came from an area with no black people at all. I had never dated a black man. But when I came to college, I found I have a great attraction for them. I still find white guys very attractive, and continue to date them. But I did go through a short period of time where black men were the only race I was seeing. Probably because it was so new to me.
Now the newness has worn off. I'm still very attracted to black men but they're not the only ones I'm looking at. I'm happy I've opened my eyes to different races of guys because I found qualities in black men that I really like. The problem is, my friends who do not date black men give me a hard time. Everywhere we go if a black man so much as walks by they say "Yeah you were probably checking him out. You want him? We know they're all you think about." Things like that. I'm known as the girl that "only likes black guys." Which is untrue. Its frustrating I get categorized like that! I love black men. But I feel like they're criticism is putting off guys of other races from thinking they have a shot with me. What do I do?
Most Helpful Guy
Ignore the comments and continue the way that feels best to you. I have a lust for Japanese women, I think I've been like that since I left school. Your friends only make such jokes because there is a reputation with black guys to have larger than average size penises. For girls, this means it's a talking point if one of their friends went through a 'black guy' phase and that's why they won't let it go. But perhaps for some other guys that you date who aren't black, this would be a point of insecurity.00|00|0

Q: What is hard water?
A: Water is "hard" when it contains high levels of naturally occurring minerals, like calcium and magnesium. These minerals are not hazardous to humans; in fact, they are essential nutrients our bodies need to stay healthy.

Win a Montana Men Print Bundle (Bks 1-3)
Montana Men #4
Jennifer Ryan
Releasing February 23rd, 2016
Avon Books
Sadie is trying to hold onto her family, and her life. With an ill father who's refusing treatment and a younger brother who has fallen in with a dangerous crowd, she's beginning to feel like she can't save anyone, least of all herself. When her brother owes money to the wrong people, Sadie tries to pay off his debts, but she doesn't have the cash. The one person who might be able to help her out is the last person she wants to involve in her family drama, but Rory won't take no for an answer.
Rory is all about family, but sometimes you've got to let go. If you can't save them, save yourself. Sadie's been dealt a bad hand she refuses to fold. Because he loves her, he'll do anything to keep her safe and give her the happy life she deserves, even betray her trust to take down her brother.
This is the second book of Jennifer Ryan's that I have read and she is really starting to become one of my top favorite authors. I love that the books take place in Montana, such a special place to me. I also really love of she makes her characters strong and independent, but yet they still need someone to take care of them. It's very much true to life. I didn't think I could possibly like a story more than Dane and Bell's, but Rory and Sadie captured my heart. You can't help but to feel sorry for Sadie, but at the same time you have to admire her courage and morals. She tries so hard to keep her brother out of trouble, even after everything that went down because of Connor she still tried to give him one last chance to redeem himself. Don't even get me started on Rory. From the moment he found Sadie left for dead, he automatically became a special cowboy in my book. He's the strong silent type and Sadie made him better. She restored his soul and heart. These two characters will grab your heart and make you love them. I can't wait to raw more from this author.

Jennifer lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband and three children. When she isn't writing a book, she's reading one. Her obsession with both is often revealed in the state of her home and in how late dinner is to the table. When she finally leaves those fictional worlds, you'll find her in the garden, playing in the dirt and daydreaming about people who live only in her head, until she puts them on paper.

Superyacht AMEVI is able to accommodate up to 18 people with 27 crew members. She is a recent full displacement yacht. This fantastic motor yacht has a helicopter pad capability. She can reach a maximum speed of 20 knots.
Luxury super yacht AMEVI is owned by a steel titan who is Indian by birth and the UK's richest citizen. M/Y AMEVI (Project Y701) was followed up by the super yacht ALFA NERO (Project Y701). AMEVI won the 2007 ShowBoats best Full-Displacement Motor Yacht Over 56 Meters in length.
Oceanco was the naval architecture company involved in the formal superyacht design work for AMEVI. Also the company Oceanco and Nuvolari - Lenard skillfully collaborated on this venture. Interior designer Alberto Pinto / Nuvolari & Lenard was charged with the overall interior ambience. the Netherlands is the country that Oceanco Yachts (Alblasserdam Yachtbuilding) built their new build motor yacht in. After the official launch in 2006 in Alblasserdam the boat was delivered on to the happy owner after sea trials and testing. A beamy proportion is brought about with a widest beam (width) of 14.2 metres / 46.59 feet. The material steel was used in the building of the hull of the motor yacht. Her superstructure over the hull is fashioned from aluminium. In 2008 further refit work and modernisation was in addition performed.
The 16V 595 TE70 engine installed in the motor yacht is made by MTU. The main engine of the yacht gives 4680 horse power (or amevi kilowatts). She is equiped with 2 engines. The combined power for the yacht is therefore 9360 HP or 6980 KW. With respect to stabalisers she utilises Rolls-Royce Zero Speed Retractable.

Tesla Motors Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) does enough to make sure that even if the battery power of its cars reduces zero, the customer is not left stranded, and there is enough reserve to take the auto some distance.
This update to Tesla's Ludicrous mode technically makes it the fastest-accelerating production vehicle now on sale, considering the McLaren P1, Ferrari LaFerrari and Porsche 918 are out of production and don't achieve 0-60mph times this quick. It could accelerate from 0 to 60 miles an hour in 2.5 seconds, making it the fastest vehicle in the world (excluding supercars).
According to Tesla, the Easter Egg, which should be the 8.1 update, will only improve all the P100D Ludicrous vehicles in the Tesla Model S and Model X range.
The Tesla Model S 100D will be able to accelerate from 0-60mph in 2.4sec when a software update arrives next month, accroding to a Tweet put out by CEO Elon Musk today.
Its latest trick is to make the P100D variants of the Model S sedan and Model X SUV go faster than they already do.More news: Arizona escapes with win on Catanzaro's field goal
The P100D will contain a 100kWh battery - increasing performance over the existing P90D model. It will be released nationwide in December, so we will not have to wait long to find out what other surprises the company has in store.
Tesla is increasing the base price of the Model S by $2,000 as of November 22, the company announced Friday in an email. That could all change, and just in time for the Model 3 production ramp-up, thanks to a new development. Kids from about three to eight years old are the target market of the Tesla Model S for kids. This is accompanied by Tesla's advanced air filtration system, too.
While this is great news for Tesla owners, there is a small catch. While these improvements may not seem that massive when we're strictly looking at the numbers, it's still pretty incredible that Tesla has managed to do this through a software update.
Would you buy a Tesla Model S?
The extra speed will hardly be noticeable from the vehicle's current capability but it will solidify the car's position among a series of fast electric cars capable of competing with regular combustion-engine powered supercars. Which version takes your fancy?

Every time you wander down the aisles of your local supermarket, you're faced with the choice of buying national brands versus store brands, or "private labels." Often the store brands sit directly next to the national brands on the shelf, making comparison-shopping difficult to avoid. Knowing the difference between them can help you make better decisions about your spending habits.
National Brands
You typically recognize a national brand when you see it: Clorox (detergents), Ben & Jerry's (ice cream), Kellogg's (cereal), Diamond (nuts), Ocean Spray (juices) and so on. These and other big-name brands account for approximately 82.6 percent of retail food sales in the United States. Their popularity is the result of several factors, including multi-million-dollar advertising campaigns and the promise of a consistent experience every time.
Private Labels
Store brands offer an alternative to national brands. Instead of buying Diamond walnuts, you might buy Costco's Kirkland brand. Similarly, you might choose Kroger's Private Selection ice cream over Ben & Jerry's. Currently, the private label share of retail foods sales in the United States is 17.4 percent. Some believe that store brands still have a long way to go. In Europe, private label accounts for a whopping 24.4 percent of retail food sales.
Price is an important consideration when choosing between national and store brands. While their prices have been rising, it's common for store brands to cost 25 to 30 percent less than their equivalent national brands, according to TIME. By outsourcing production to national brands or specialty manufacturers, retailers avoid having to make big capital investments in factories and equipment. They also don't spend nearly as much on advertising (if anything), making it easier to pass along the savings to consumers.
National brands have historically enjoyed the perception of higher quality. However, that belief has changed, with 78 percent of shoppers now reporting that store brands offer the same quality as national brands, according to a poll conducted by Consumer Reports. Part of the reason is that shoppers have learned that store brands are often made by the same companies behind national brands. Blind taste tests also reveal that store brands are usually as tasty as their more expensive national counterparts.
