We all know bees can be horrible, centipedes terrifying, and flies just annoying. But cockroaches are perhaps the biggest household pest of them all. They crawl, they swarm, they eat leftover food, they stink, and they scatter when exposed to bright light. Roaches are also incredibly hardy -- some being able to survive without food for about a month -- and very adaptable to many environments, preferably those that are warm and moist. Often times this is exaggerated in fiction in that they are able to survive a nuclear war (though roaches can withstand radiation poisoning for a long period of time, they are not immune to its effects). They're also used as a symbol of filth and decay in fiction. This trope is dedicated to all things roachy (no, not that kind of roach, or that kind of roach).
- Men in Black features a giant roach alien who devours a human and uses his skin as a disguise. He also leaves swarms of roaches wherever he goes, and loves sugar (preferably in water).
- ER had a woman who had a small cockroach removed from her ear. she immediately freaks out and stomps on it.
- La Cucaracha stars an anthropomorphic roach named Cuco Rocha.
- Homestar Runner has Gavin, an ordinary cockroach who is sometimes seen in Strong Bad's room.
- Oggy and the Cockroaches is about three roaches named Dee Dee, Joey, and Markie who terrorize Oggy the cat, who wants nothing more to sit back, relax, and watch some TV.
- Roach Coach from The Powerpuff Girls, who controls a whole swarm of roaches.

The present invention relates to information handling systems and, more particularly, to information handling systems including efficient means for moving data between storage and auxiliary processors without disrupting activity on a main processor bus.
Field of the Invention
Most modern computer systems today use a concept of virtual memory wherein there is more memory available to the application programs than really exists in the machine (so-called real memory). This memory is called virtual because the operating system and hardware let the application think this memory is there, but in reality may not exist in physical memory accessible by the processor(s) but is allocated out on the system hard disk. The hardware and software translate virtual addresses by the program into addresses where the memory really is, either in real physical memory or somewhere out on the hard disk. It does this on a so-called page unit basis which is typically 4K bytes.
These translations are kept in the processor hardware in a translation lookaside buffer (TLB) because they are done constantly and need to be done rapidly. When a page is accessed by a processor and it is not in real memory, a page fault interrupt occurs and the software brings in the page from disk and maps it to a real page in memory. If there was no empty real memory space to put that page in from the disk, the software first selects a page to be copied to the disk freeing up space before replacing it with the page from the disk. This is called page swapping. In order to remove a real page from memory, the software changes the hardware translation buffers (TLBs) so that the old virtual addresses no longer map to their old real page location. This is called invalidating the TLB. If that virtual address is then referenced, the software will take a page fault and then know it is not in real memory and to look for it on the hard disk. When the new page is brought in from the disk, the TLB is then changed to map the new virtual address to that real page address in memory.
Today's computer systems also consist of one or more processors, each having a cache memory which contains a copy of recently used data from real memory to speed up execution. When a processor fetches or stores data to memory, the data is loaded or saved in its cache. A similar technique is used to save data back to memory when not recently used and to update a section of the cache with data currently being accessed by the processor(s). This is usually done entirely in hardware for speed.
When a processor is accessing cached data, it causes no external bus or memory activity and, therefore, is extremely efficient.
In these types of computer systems, several alternatives currently exist for moving data between memory (or a processor cache when data may be modified in a processor cache) and an I/O device. The first alternative is to have the processor issue loads and then stores directly to the devices using PIO (programmed I/O). The processor accesses memory (or cache) using a Load instruction into one of its internal registers. The hardware translates the virtual address using the TLB and gets the data from the real memory (cache) location. As noted above, a page fault will occur if the data is not presently in real memory, and the OS software will swap the data in and then the access will occur. Once the data is in the processor register, it is then written to the I/O device using a store to the I/O location. (The reverse procedure is used if the I/O device is the source of the data and the memory is the target.)
This method, although simple in programming terms, has the drawback of consuming any processor cycles since the processor is slowed by the speed of the I/O device, as well as consuming system bus and I/O bus bandwidth since there are no burst transfers available, and the transfers are limited to the processor operand sizes (words, double words, etc.). Transferring a 4K page of data in this manner would require a thousand such operations using the typical word size operand load and stores.
Another common alternative is to use Direct Memory Access (DMA) to transfer blocks of data from memory to I/O or vice versa. This has the advantage over the first alternative of saving many CPU cycles, using more efficient burst transfers and potentially not using the system bus bandwidth, if due to the system organization, the traffic can be kept off of the main system (processor/memory bus); however, there is still a large processor overhead involving the DMA setup, as will be explained below, and in handling the terminating interrupt, which again involves the OS kernel.
The DMA setup is complicated by the fact that when an application wishes to write or read some data from I/O from one of its virtual pages, the I/O DMA devices do not typically understand these virtual addresses and, second, where is the data, in memory or on the hard disk? As noted before, the OS software may have temporarily swapped an application's data page out to disk.
To set up a DMA transfer requires the processor to get the source (or target) memory address, translated from a virtual address to a real memory address, and then get the OS software to "pin" the real page in memory while the transfer is taking place. Both of these operations involve an OS kernel call which can be expensive in processor cycles. The "pinning" operation is for the real page manager to mark the real page unavailable to be paged out to disk and not be replaced by the OS software. If this were allowed, the I/O device could transfer data to an application other than the one requesting the transfer, with disastrous results.
For data intensive transfers such as graphics screen painting or multimedia device transfers, the CPU overhead or system bus bandwidth is the limiting factor.
Auxiliary processing functions such as graphics processing have generally been performed by relatively expensive graphics adapters or three dimensional pixel processing in prior art systems.
Recent prior art software developments have allowed graphics processing to be handled by the main processor complex in an information handling system. However, the result was not totally satisfactory since graphics pipeline processing does not adapt well to a normal CPU architecture.
Some newer systems have moved graphics processing functions into the memory controller to take advantage of the speed and bandwidth of the memory interface and to offload the processor as much as is practical.
Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to execute graphics processing functions in a graphics processor located in a controller attached to the processor bus including means for managing command blocks and data block movement requests in such a way as to minimize contention with normal processor or direct memory access traffic to a storage subsystem.
Accordingly, an information handling system which efficiently processes auxiliary functions such as graphics processing includes one or more processors, a high speed processor bus connecting the one or more processors, a memory controller for controlling memory and for controlling the auxiliary function processing, a memory subsystem, and an I/O bus having one or more I/O controllers with I/O devices connected thereto, further includes means in a processor for building a queue of command blocks related to the auxiliary function processor, writing one or more command blocks to memory, which may include a processor cache, writing a start address for each command block to an address FIFO associated with the auxiliary function processor, reading a command block queue start address by the auxiliary processor, recognizing the command block read, issuing a coherent read for queued data blocks with intervention enabled, flushing a copy of the queued data block from processor cache to memory subsystem if a copy of the queued data block is in processor cache, intercepting the flushed copy of the queued data block from cache to memory and canceling the read to memory, storing the queued block in a command buffer associated with the auxiliary function processor, processing the commands in the queue by the auxiliary function processor, and writing a complete status to a predetermined location which is periodically polled by a processor on completion of the auxiliary function processing.
For each data request to storage from the auxiliary function processor, a determination is made as to whether the request is for a coherent or non-coherent read or write of the data. If the request is for a non-coherent operation, the snoop cycle on the processor bus is inhibited and bypassed since there is no need to perform a snoop to maintain coherency for non-coherent data. That data request is then handled and processed.
It is an advantage of the present invention to issue all coherent reads to the processor bus with intervention enabled, to be snooped by the processor, flushed to memory if modified, and to capture the data by the auxiliary function processor and canceling the read to memory.
It is an advantage of the present invention that 3D graphics processing may be efficiently accomplished with minimum interference to processor bus traffic or to memory accesses.
It is another advantage of the present invention that the integration of a graphics pixel processing engine in a memory controller design provides a cost effective way of giving a system 3D graphics capability.
Other features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent in the following detailed description of the preferred embodiment of the invention taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing.

FIG. 5 is ia flow chart showing the processing of a graphics processor data request in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram showing a group of command blocks and a first in first out (FIFO) register for storing pointers to the command blocks in accordance with the present invention.
A Processor builds USERQUEUE command blocks and writes them into its internal cache. It then writes the starting address of the command block to the USERQUEUE address FIFO in the memory controller. Since the command block may not have been flushed back to main memory before the onboard graphics engine needs to read it, the memory controller differentiates command block requests from normal data requests by providing a cache intervention path for command requests. The memory controller issues a coherent read request for the USERQUEUE block with intervention enabled. When the USERQUEUE read request is seen on the processor bus, the processor must flush its copy of the USERQUEUE back to memory. During this flush, the USERQUEUE is captured by the memory controller, and the read is cancelled to memory. This provides the USERQUEUE data to the graphics engine more quickly and relieves the memory bus of any extra read/write traffic so that it is free to service other processor or DMA read/write requests. Once the graphics engine has completed the USERQUEUE, it writes a location in the command block that the processor is polling to provide completion status for the operation.
Turning attention to data requests by the graphics engine, again the focus was on minimizing impact to processor or DMA traffic handled by the memory controller. Certain read or write requests generated by the graphics engine are to areas in memory containing pixel map information or matrixes that will only be accessed by the graphics engine and will never be modified. This nullifies the need for keeping these transactions coherent with any of the processors in the system. Normal memory read/writes handled by the memory controller generate a snoop cycle on the processor bus to maintain coherency. A special snoop bypass path in the memory controller allows suppression of the processor bus snoop cycle whenever one of these data block move requests is seen from the graphics engine. This again minimizes processor address bus traffic by the graphics engine, so it is free to serve other processor or DMA requests.
Referring now to FIG. 1, an information handling system implementing the present invention will be described.
An information handling system 10 includes one or more processing units 12, each having data outputs connected to a processor data bus 14 and having address outputs connected to a processor address bus 16. A data management unit (DMU) 18 is connected to processor data bus 14 and an address management unit (AMU) 20 is connected to processor address bus 16. BMU 18 and AMU 20 are components of memory controller 204 (see FIG. 2). Data management unit 18 is connected by memory data bus 22 to memory system 24 and by I/O bus 26 to I/O bridges 32. Address management unit 20 is connected by memory address bus 28 to memory system 24, and by I/O bus 26 to I/O bridges 32. DMU 18 and AMU 20 may be combined in a single unit as a bus isolation unit 204.
Each of the units identified above are well known in the art and will not be described in greater detail except for data management unit 18 and address management unit 20 which are described in greater detail in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/537,185 issued as U.S. Pat. No. 5,687,329.
Referring now to FIG. 2, elements of the present invention will be described in greater detail.
Each processor 12 attached to processor bus 14, 16 includes a cache 202. A memory controller 204 is also connected to processor SMP bus 40, which includes processor data bus 14, and processor address bus 16, for controlling access to memory system 24 either by processors 12 or by requests from I/O controllers 32. Memory controller 204 includes an auxiliary function processor 206 which may be a graphics processor. Memory controller 204 also includes a USERQUEUE address FIFO 208 for storing USERQUEUE starting addresses, a USERQUEUE command buffer 210 for storing commands for each USERQUEUE block, intervention logic 212 which is controlled by the nature of commands as being either coherent or non-coherent, and a pixel mapping buffer 214. The graphics engine 206 may generate coherent read commands which require intervention and snooping on the processor bus 14, 16 or non-coherent commands which disable the processor bus snooping logic.
Referring now to FIG. 3, an overview of graphics processing in accordance with the present invention will be described.
When graphics processing is begun 302, a processor 12 builds a queue of graphics commands using opcodes designed for use in a particular auxiliary function processor such as a graphics processor. This building of the command queue 304 generates a list which will be referred to herein as a USERQUEUE. The processor then writes 306 the USERQUEUE to memory and writes 308 the addresses of USERQUEUEs to address FIFO 208 associated with the graphics processor 206.
The USERQUEUE data will most likely remain in the processor cache 202 since that data is in a cachable memory location. The USERQUEUE address will be written directly to the address FIFO since it is located in a non-cachable memory location.
The write to the FIFO will trigger the graphics processor 206 to read 310 USERQUEUE start addresses to fetch the USERQUEUE. The graphics processor then processes 312 the graphics commands associated with the USERQUEUE.
Referring now to FIG. 4, the present invention will be described with reference to a more detailed flow chart.
A processor builds 402 a USERQUEUE command block. The processor then writes 404 the command block to the processor cache.
The processor then writes 406 the start address of the command block to the address FIFO associated with the graphics processor, which triggers the graphics processor to read 408 the USERQUEUE start address. If the memory controller recognizes 410 a command block read (a coherent read), the memory controller issues 414 a coherent read to the USERQUEUE block with intervention enabled. If the memory controller does not recognize a command block read, normal read processing 412 is performed.
When the processor snoops a coherent (USERQUEUE) read request 416 on the processor bus, the processor flushes 418 a copy of the USERQUEUE block from the processor cache to memory. The memory controller then intercepts 420 the flushed copy of the USERQUEUE block from cache to memory and cancels the read to memory.
The memory controller then stores 422 the USERQUEUE block in the USERQUEUE command buffer 210 associated with graphics processor 206. The graphics commands in USERQUEUE command buffer 210 are then processed 424 by graphics engine 206. On completion of the processing 426 of graphics commands, a complete status is written 428 to a location periodically polled by the processor.
Referring now to FIG. 5, the processing graphics commands step 424 of FIG. 4 will be described in greater detail.
When a graphics processor issues 502 a data request, memory controller 204 determines 504 if the request is for coherent read or write. If the request is for a coherent data operation, normal processing 506 including snooping on the processor bus is performed by issuing the read to system read/write queue 216.
If the request is for a non-coherent read or write, the snoop cycle on the processor bus is bypassed 508 and the data request is handled 510 by issuing the read/write to memory queue 218.
Referring now to FIG. 6, the USERQUEUE and USERQUEUE address FIFO 208 will be further described.
Each USERQUEUE 602, 606, 610, and 614, for example, is referenced by a pointer address P1, P2, P3, and P4, respectively. The pointers to USERQUEUEs 602, 606, 610, and 614 are stored in first-in first-out order in FIFO register 208.
After the completion of graphics processing as described above with respect to FIG. 4, the step of writing a complete status 428 includes writing the status into a location such as 604, 608, 612, and 616 in blocks 602, 606, 610, and 614, respectively, such that the processor when polling will examine the starting address location in each of the blocks to test for complete status.
Although the invention has been described with respect to a preferred embodiment which specifically deals with graphics processing where the graphics processing engine is embodied as a portion of a memory controller, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the invention equally applies to other auxiliary function processors which require access to processors across the processor bus and to memory in a manner so as to minimize interference with other processor and memory accesses.
Accordingly, the scope of this invention is limited only by the following claims and their equivalents.

Q. Dear Dating Advice Girl,
You were the first website I came across in my desperate time of need. So for three months I've been talking to this guy I met online. The only problem is that he lives 10 hours away from me. Whenever I talk with him, I don't feel as though he is 10 hours away, I feel as though he is right with me. I understand the hardships of being in long distance relationships, but I find that he is worth it all. For the past three weeks however, I've been finding his distance obvious. It's not how it used to be and it hurts. I don't know what to say or how to act anymore. I promised I would always be there for him & I am one to keep my promises. So my question to you is should I keep my hope in him and if so, how? Or should I just give up?
A. Long distance relationships can be super tough…especially in the early months of dating when you are developing strong feelings for someone new. Long distance relationships can work, but only if both people involved really want to be in a relationship. Both of you have to be whole-heartedly invested in making it work. Until you both have a discussion about commitment, don't stop your life! This is also a good lesson for the future….avoid getting into a one-way commitment i.e. committing to be with someone even if they haven't committed to you. I respect your loyalty, but you don't want to get yourself stuck in a situation where you are the only one actively working at being in a relationship.
Since you are still getting to know each other, I would suggest taking things slow in terms of jumping into an exclusive relationship with someone that lives far away from you. Again, I respect your loyalty, but I definitely encourage you to keep your options open if or until you and your long distance love-interest decide to commit to each other.
The most important thing for you and your love-interest right now is to make sure that you are both on the same page. To get on the same page, a conversation must be had. Before you let him go of your love-interest completely, I encourage you to have an honest conversation with your guy about your dating status and ask questions like…
Does he want to keep things casual?
Would he like things to progress?
What realistically would YOU like to happen between the two of you?
If you both want things to progress, what steps will you both take to make the long-distance thing work?
The answers to these questions should help you both to make a decision about your future, whether together or separately.
It's easy for strong feelings to develop in the early months of relationships and new couples start making big decisions starting around the 3-month mark. Even if this relationship doesn't work out, keep your head up! You will meet others that will be on the same page as you whether they are in your town or far away. Learn from this experience. It will help you in your future relationships whether long-distance or local.
Hugs and love,
Erin 'The Dating Advice Girl'

Booming Burbs Stop Growing
Areas like Bellevue, Washington and Coral Springs, Florida have grown by 10% or more every decade since the 1970s. Today, these suburban communities are actually losing people.
Haya El Nasser writes, "Twenty-four of the 53 cities of 100,000 or more that grew by at least 10% every decade since 1970 lost population in the last two years.
Fifteen are likely to end the decade with less than a 10% gain in population, largely because of recent losses."

Jewelry photography? Nailed it.
A little to the left...now a little to the right...bring it forward...no, a little back. Getting the perfect angle is always the most difficult part of taking a photo. The placement, brightness, high, low, and even cropping are all important things to consider before snapping away. With some helpful tips from our expert marketing team, you'll become the next pro Instagramer!
Rings are pretty difficult, especially because you want the focal point to be the piece itself and not the overpowering hand. Which is why you need to angle the ring towards the camera, and make sure the hand takes up approximately 1/3 of the entire frame. Try to hold your hand in a loose fist so the ring *pops,* avoid extending your fingers - that draws attention away from the ring. Tap on the ring to focus, and snap.Overhead shots are great for capturing an overlay of various products. Grab a magazine, a cute box, and some smaller decor (where the theme and color match your jewelry piece). Use odd numbers. 5 items are always better than 4, 3 better than 2, and so on. If you are going to clump items, clump them in odd numbered groups as well. It is proven that the eye appeals more to odd numbered grouping. Find a nice background, preferably a marbled, white, or wooden surface. Tap, focus, and snap away!
It's always a bonus when the necklace is modeled by someone. It gives a more realistic look of how the product looks when it's worn. So, put on your favorite outfit and find an artsy background to prepare for this photo. The background should be fairly simple, nothing too dramatic or colorful. You want the necklace to really stand out, so nothing distracting should be going on in the background. It's always a plus if there are flowers or some kind of pretty plant in the back. The top of your choice should be monochromatic as well. Now tap, focus, and snap. Pretty nice, right?
Good luck shooting your favorite pieces next time, and remember to keep these tips in mind!
Summer beauty hacks that will save your life!Summer is undoubtedly great, but with summer comes an endless list of beauty problems that tend to get out of hand. Untamed frizz, uneven tans, bubbly nail polish, cakey foundation, the list goes on and on. Need some help with these every day encounters? Keep readin' on!1) Put your nail polish in the fridge! This will help it stay smooth and cool for use! Say buh-bye to bubbly polish!2) Use dryer sheets to tame your frizz. It might look totally weird wiping your entire head of hair with dryer sheets, but anything to stay frizz free for the day, right?3) Instead of using foundation, switch to a light BB cream. BB creams are much less cakey, and will still give you that nice, sheer coverage!
4) Oops! Got a bit of BB cream stain on your white blouse? Not a problem. Use a bit of shaving cream. Dab a dollop of it on the stain before placing it in the wash. Your blouse will be good as new.
5) In a rush? Soak your nails in ice water to make them dry faster!6) Saline is your year old mascara's best friend! Put a couple drops of saline into your mascara tube, and BAM, reusable.7) Wait! Don't throw away your tea bags just yet. Toss them in the freezer for a couple minutes, and then place it under your eyes to de-puff.8) Place a bit of vaseline on your wrists before spraying your favorite perfume. The scent will last SO much longer.9) Sweat, ocean water, and perfume are the three biggest enemies of your jewelry. Try to keep your beloved pieces away from them!10) Did you know that beer cleans gold? And ketchup is also known to clean silver! Stop spending money on expensive cleansing solutions and use this hack to sparkle up your jewels!

- 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 8 (4 ounce) pork cube steaks
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt

- 1⁄2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1⁄8 cup black pepper
- 1⁄8 cup garlic powder
Directions See How It's Made
- Combine 1-/12 cups flour and 1/4 teaspoons of pepper in small bowl. Sprinkle one side of the meat with the basic seasoning and the other side of the meat with the seasoning salt. Dredge the meat in the flour mixture.
- Heat 1/2 cup oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add 2 or 4 of the steaks (don't overcrowd the pan) to the hot oil and fry until browned (approx. 5 minutes per side). Remove each steak to a paper-towel plate to drain. Repeat with any remaining steaks, adding up to 1/4 cup oil, as needed.

CORTEC, manufacturer of high-quality API compact ball valves and manifolds, has expanded its CORTEC Manifold Systems (CMS) Lafayette manufacturing facility and relocated to new premises in Port Allen, Louisiana.
According to Stephen Corte, vice president of CORTEC, the move was necessitated to support the company's growth initiatives and increase in customer demand. The facility now supports a full range of CORTEC's service operations, including sales, engineering, quality, machining, product assembly and testing, inventory and coating.
"This expansion is a testament to CORTEC's product quality and customer service," says Corte. "The enhancements we have made to this manufacturing facility are a direct result of our commitment to improving customer support, increasing product quality, expanding product capacity and extending market share."
The 55,000 square-foot facility is equipped with specialised machinery capable of manufacturing high pressure metal-seated ball valves and testing equipment designed for severe service applications. The location has capacity for 35 employees, but additional acreage and building plans are in place to expand and accommodate four times that number, which will support continued growth and expansion over the next several years.

Colbert BumpJanuary 24, 2012
In Saturday's Republican presidential primary, Herman Cain came in fifth place with 1.1 percent of the vote. Cain, who dropped out of the race in December, outperformed the combined vote of all other candidates who dropped out. While Cain only received 45 votes in Iowa and 160 votes in New Hampshire, he garnered 6,324 votes in South Carolina. How did this happen? The "Colbert bump." Comedian Stephen Colbert, who tried unsuccessfully to get on the Democratic presidential primary ballot in South Carolina in 2008, recently announced he was launching an exploratory run for the Republican primary in South Carolina this year (the photo is one I took at the "Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear" that Colbert led along with Jon Stewart). However, since the filing date for getting on the ballot had already passed and South Carolina does not allow write-in votes for the primary, Colbert decided to borrow a name on the ballot. Colbert told his fans in the Palmetto State to vote for Cain as a vote for Colbert. For much of the past year, Colbert has been hilariously pointing out the problems with SuperPACs and the nature of our campaigns since the Citizens United Supreme Court case in 2010. Just before the Iowa Straw Poll in August, the Colbert SuperPAC--known as "Americans for a Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow"--ran two hilarious ads urging people to write-in the name of "Rick Parry" (with an "a") at the same time supporters of Texas Governor Rick Perry (with an "e") were trying to get write-in votes for their their candidate (see the two Colbert SuperPAC ads here and here). The trick is that since write-in laws require counters to consider voter intent, misspellings are counted for the actual candidate. Thus, anyone writing-in "Rick Parry" would have their vote count for Rick Perry--even though in this case one would not know if the voter's intent was to vote for the real Rick Perry or jokingly vote for the fake "Rick Parry." What the ads demonstrated was how a SuperPAC could flood the airwaves to disrupt elections. Perry, by the way, came in sixth place in the Iowa Straw Poll--ahead of former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, who was actually on the ballot--by capturing 4.3 percent of the vote (an unprecedentedly strong showing for a write-in candidate in the Iowa Straw Poll). However, the Iowa Republican Party refused to release numbers indicating how many people wrote Perry's name with an "a." Perhaps that is why a couple of days before the Iowa Straw Poll the head of the group leading the real Rick Perry's write-in effort told me he was excited by Colbert's theatrics.
Then, earlier this month as Colbert decided to launch the presidential run, he had to give control of the SuperPAC to someone else since candidates are not allowed to coordinate with SuperPACs. He put his friend and fellow Comedy Central comedian Jon Stewart in charge, which gave them comical opportunities to push the boundaries on what it means to be coordinating or not. The Colbert SuperPAC--now led by Stewart--released several hilarious campaign ads. As with the Iowa ones, the South Carolina ads actually aired during TV commercial breaks along with other political ads. The first one--probably the best--was an over-the-top attack ad on Romney (see the ad here). The SuperPAC then ran an ad urging people to vote for Colbert by voting for Cain (see ad here). The group also released a couple of ads attacking the fact that SuperPACs can run attack ads by attacking candidates and SuperPACs (see ads here and here). The South Carolina ads are narrated by actors like John Lithgow, Mandy Patinkin, Sam Elliot, and Samuel L. Jackson. To add to the ads, Colbert even held a rally last week in Charleston--with Cain! At the rally, Colbert mocked confessional politics by invoking God (and had publicly prayed on this TV show to claim God wanted him to run). Responding to the claim that the rally and overall presidential effort was merely a "joke," Colbert declared at the rally:
I say, if they are calling being allowed to form a super PAC and collect unlimited, untraceable amounts of money from individuals, unions, and corporations; and spend that money on political ads and for personal enrichment; and then surrender that super PAC to one of my closest friends while I explore a run for office; if that is a joke, then they are saying our entire campaign finance system is a joke!It is a great point that summarizes his overall SuperPAC effort of the last several months (you can see most of the Colbert-Cain rally here). In an age of broken politics, it takes the court jester to speak the truth.

An improved economic performance in the region, compounded by an increasingly sophisticated consumer, has shaped the direction of the packaging market in Mexico.
Sector briefing Packaging Opportunities in Mexico Why Mexico? An improved economic performance in the region, compounded by an increasingly sophisticated consumer, has shaped the direction of the packaging market in Mexico. This has resulted in the emergence of higher quality packaging, offering convenience and visual appeal. In addition to a growing middle class, improving conditions among poorer consumers have fuelled strong expansion in packaging volumes, creating a major opportunity for packaging firms.

The market is segmented as follows: ¾ RIGID PLASTIC ¾ METAL ¾ FLEXIBLE PACKAGING ¾ GLASS ¾ LIQUID CARTONS ¾ PAPER-BASED PACKAGING Consumer Trends Consumer trends in Mexico are moving rapidly in terms of new products that match new worldwide life styles, including frozen or ready- made meals, bottled water, energy and sports drinks and on the go snacks for breakfast/lunch. In Mexico, the packaging industry has benefitted from growth in demand for beer, and offers standardised, customised packaging. This standard packaging is especially important for the growing microbrewery segment, which requires distinctive packaging while avoiding identification with the higher-volume products. Since Mexico is one of the largest national markets for carbonates in the world, carbonates and bottled water were by far the leading products stimulating growth in rigid plastics. In Mexico, bottled water maintained high levels of growth due, in part, to consumers? interest in consuming healthy beverages, but also to ensure the quality of the products they consume. In addition to strong gains in milk, liquid cartons had strong demand in cream, flavoured milk drinks and fruit and vegetable juice.

She did wear tights (hello, it's 45 degrees out, she isn't crazy) and a very sparkly choker, but for the most part, Rihanna stayed true to her gorgeous, glorious, and oft-naked self.

About the Board
The Alaska Board of Fisheries consists of seven members serving three-year terms. Members are appointed by the governor and confirmed by the legislature. Members are appointed on the basis of interest in public affairs, good judgment, knowledge, and ability in the field of action of the board, with a view to providing diversity of interest and points of view in the membership (see Alaska Statute 16.05.221).
The Board of Fisheries' main role is to conserve and develop the fishery resources of the state. This involves setting seasons, bag limits, methods and means for the state's subsistence, commercial, sport, guided sport, and personal use fisheries, and it also involves setting policy and direction for the management of the state's fishery resources. The board is charged with making allocative decisions, and the department is responsible for management based on those decisions.
The board has a three-year meeting cycle (PDF 147 kB). The meetings generally occur from October through March. The Board of Fisheries meets four to six times per year in communities around the state to consider proposed changes to fisheries regulations around the state. The board uses the biological and socioeconomic information provided by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, public comment received from people inside and outside of the state, and guidance from the Alaska Department of Public Safety and Alaska Department of Law when creating regulations that are sound and enforceable.
Board of Fisheries Authority
The Board of Fisheries is established under Alaska Statute 16.05.221 for the purposes of the conservation and development of the fisheries resources of the state. The Board of Fisheries has the authority to adopt regulations described in AS 16.05.251 including: establishing open and closed seasons and areas for taking fish; setting quotas, bag limits, harvest levels and limitations for taking fish; and establishing the methods and means for the taking of fish. The regulations the Board of Fisheries has authority over are 5 AAC Chapters 1- 77.

SARASOTA, Fla. -- The statewide teachers association is among the groups suing the state over a grant program funded by corporate dollars. The plaintiffs say it's unconstitutional to give tax breaks when the scholarships are going to private and religious schools.
Sixty thousand Florida students receive grant money upwards of $5,000, including more than 800 in Sarasota and Manatee Counties combined--including Grace Weichert.
The 12-year old attends Tabernacle Christian School in Sarasota.
Her mother says Grace does better in a smaller setting. But Grace may have to transfer if a state grant program is stopped.
"It would be hard to keep her in private school if I didn't have this scholarship available
Cheryl is talking about a privately funded program where corporations get tax breaks for their donations. But the President of the Sarasota Consolidated Teachers Association doesn't like it.
"They get a tax break and then the tax money that doesn't come in, doesn't go to the schools," said Pat Gardner.
Though SCTA isn't involved directly in the lawsuit, they support it.
"I think we're 42nd in the nation in student funding, everytime they divert something to something else you're just taking it away from the public school system," Gardner said.
One of the top ranking members of Florida Senate supports the fund, and says removing it would hurt a lot of families.
"It's going to impact 60 thousand children. These are children from low-income homes who have opportunities they otherwise wouldn't have had but for this tax scholarship program," said State Senator Bill Galvano.
The Bradenton Republican says these aren't tax dollars or even vouchers-- they're private donations.
"In other words, these are tax credits, corporations are funding this program and getting a tax credit in return," he explained.
But the union says the taxes they're not having to pay is money that should be going to education funding.
"ou're taken money out of the pot that goes to the public school system," Gardner said.
Meanwhile, Cheryl Weichert hopes her daugthter can stay in the school from which she attended a few years earlier.
"With this scholarship, it has made it possible for her to attend there," Weichert said.
No word if or when this lawsuit will progress.

not much to add here…
all i can say is I'm usually guilty of skipping over questions when i see that there's a long description to it (I'm sorry=/)… unless its something i feel i just can't skip without giving my opinion.
what about u?
a note: my question doesn't mean to offend anyone whose put lots of detail into their questions… I'm just curious about each GaGer's reaction when they come across it.
- i always skip themVote A
- I'm keen to answer themVote B
- Sometimes i do, sometimes i dontVote C

Most of the questions with lots of detail ramble all over the place and are often hard or even impossible to understand. If I start reading and get lost, I give up and move on. If it is written well, then I will read on and try to respond if I have something to contribute. On the other hand, questions that have too little info often make no sense either. I think if more people would compose more carefully, then go back and read it over, they would be more understandable and get more responses.00|00|0
yeh id agree with u on that. well put
