What power company actually comes out and READS meters anymore? Heck, I just moved from the middle of BFE, literally one red light in the whole COUNTY and we were updated enough for the usage to be read from the office of the electric company.
mine does.
Haven't heard that in ages! Liked to choke on my coffee.
Santee Cooper in SC still reads the meters. I get a bill every month with the actual meter reading on it.

London: England star Alec Stewart will meet anti-corruption chief Paul Condon to discuss cricket match-fixing allegations at the conclusion of the current One-day series, the player's lawyer said on Sunday.Responding to newspaper reports, which said Condon's Anti-Corruption Unit was frustrated at its inability to arrange a convenient date to interview Stewart, lawyer Gerrard Tyrell said a date would be finalised on Monday.
"Lord Condon will be meeting with Alec to discuss these matters further after the end of the current One-day series. The exact date of the meeting is to be fixed on Monday," Tyrell told the Press Association."He (Stewart) was asked in January to speak to Lord Condon and did so. He was told that he was looking into the allegations and would like to talk to Alec and it was agreed that they would meet at some point in the future.
"Prior to that meeting Lord Condon was asked to explain various issues relating to his inquiry but most importantly was asked for copies of any evidence that existed relating to the allegations."These allegations were made by the Indian Central Bureau of Investigation's (CBI) key source, bookmaker Mukesh Gupta and according to Tyrell the required documentation reached him last week, after Stewart had requested further information back in May.
"During the course of last week, Lord Condon responded by sending what appears to be a copy of a document detailing comments allegedly made by Mr Gupta about a range of individuals," added Tyrrell. "It does, however, add nothing more to the allegations made against Alec which have already been published. As we understand the position, this remains the only so-called evidence that exists after months of enquiries."
Stewart is currently captaining England in Sunday's triangular series One-day International against Pakistan at Headingley. The News of the World reported on Sunday that Condon, who has wanted to meet Stewart for some time to discuss allegations that the England wicket-keeper batsman had taken 5,000 Pounds from an Indian bookmaker during a 1993 tour, had been frustrated by the failure to arrange a meeting.

18 1/2" shotgun
I have been looking at HD shotguns for something to keep for home defense and as something fun to mess with at the range. I like the Winchester sxp and the stoeger coach gun but I can't decide on one. Any advice will be appreciated.
Winchester 120, 1200, 1300, Defender. Strongest, fastest actions made.
Remington 870. The gun all other pump guns are compared to.
Mossberg 590 or (second choice) 500. Solid, affordable, many accessories available.
No experience with the SXP. Would not consider a double barrel to be my first (or second) choice (sorry Uncle Joe).
I agree with the 130,1200, and the 1300s in my opinion they are the best pump guns ever made.....but the sxps are good guns also as far as a new pump gun I would go with a sxp.or benelli nova
1 Attachment(s)
Let's not leave the Mossberg 590A1 out of the loop of consideration. ;)
i like double side by side shotguns but they are NOT for home defense. while they can be used for such in a pinch, if i had to buy a defense gun first i would not choose a double.
my doubles come out for cowboy action shooting clay shooting and small game hunting and thats about it. thats all they are really good for.
If all you want is a home defense 18.5" barrel shotgun, consider the IAC Hawk 982 ($200 new), a Rem 870 clone. I picked one up and am very pleased. Did a lot of research, and while a clone this shotgun has very consistent good reviews. Some reviewers state the 982 has features that are better than the 870. The Hawk can use nearly all 870 parts, but not the barrel.
+1 on the IAC Hawk - big fan of mine
1 Attachment(s)
$250.00 bucks at Wal-Marts.........Stevens 350
Everyone had given you some great options. I have one pump 12 ga. That I use for everything...Mossberg 835...however based on your listed guns...I want a coach gun bad...I would go for that one...but I would not be likely to use it for HD.
Uncle Joe really put some bias against the double but they were used for years. 2 very fast shots is a very compact firearm. A 20" double is a lot shorter than an 18" pump. I would not get one with exposed hammers/snaggers. Especially good if you have a situation where it has to be kept unloaded. Very useful as a survival weapon. You can keep shot in one barrel and heavier shot or a slug in the other. Now if it is crowd control, I'll take a pump with an extended mag. 2 is company, 3 is a crowd.

NEW YORK – GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy and Advanced Reactor Concepts LLC said that they have agreed to collaborate in the development of an advanced small modular reactor.
GE Hitachi and ARC Nuclear hope that a small reactor that can be built at lower costs will meet replacement demand for aging reactors, they said Monday.
Small reactors are considered the key to promoting the use of nuclear energy as massive construction costs have been weighing on operators.
Westinghouse Electric Co., a U.S. nuclear unit of Japan's Toshiba Corp., has faced financial difficulty due to project cost overruns.
GE Hitachi and ARC Nuclear said they plan to promote a jointly designed small reactor worldwide with initial deployment in Canada.
GE Hitachi is a joint venture between Japan's Hitachi Ltd. and U.S. conglomerate General Electric Co.

Upper Shack, Lower Shack 10/26/2011
What distinguishes a clam shack from a seafood restaurant?
Interesting question, which you could only ask if you are a complete landlubber.
Chef Pierre and I discussed the question, relevant as it was as we embarked recently on a search for a new clam shack dining experience. We created a quick clamshell rating system, according to our very personal and somewhat arbitrary criteria:
The clams have to be good. The oil has to be fresh. In fact, everything has to be good and fresh. Lemon wedges should be standard. A side of parsley indicates Upper Shack.
Picnic tables, with or without table cloths, are best situated overlooking more than Rt. 1 or a parking lot; preferably your view will be of some New England cove, and you will have to fend off the gulls—all part of the ambience. (If you dine at Abbott's, you will find fishing line strung discretely overhead, foiling--if not entirely thwarting--the gulls).
Napkins: optional. If they are cloth, you probably have an Upper Shack, unless they are also red-checkered, slightly stained from a half-century of use, and frayed at the edges, in which case you are definitely Lower Shack. More likely, you will find the cheap paper kind, in those tinny holders that may be seen in the Visual Dictionary (see previous post).
Surliness is not necessarily a negative, and can earn extra clam shells if it provides some entertainment value.
Creative activities for children earn another clamshell, as does sand in your meal. A clam shack has to have some grit to it.
Grit is not to be confused with filth in the bathroom, which will eradicate any potential clamshells. We want clean, efficient, and working toilets! A ceramic turtle on the wall is a plus.
A clam shack can't be too chichi. How clam shacks originated we do not know; but they cannot have been chichi, of that we are sure. Not too much about the New England character is chichi, especially in the last century when clam shacks were born.
Perhaps the original clam shacks originated with fishermen flipping a few tasty morsels to their wives while cleaning the day's catch. A quick fire, a picnic table, a few hungry mouths to feed…et voila! My thoroughly un-researched information may get followed up one day.
In the meantime, Chef Pierre and I don't get too fussed about any criteria. We just want a good meal with a good view at the end of a joy ride on a balmy night, with or without surliness, and yeah. We're happy. A clam shack is, after all, as much a state of mind as a square meal.

The Great Machipongo Clam Shack 07/02/2011
Driving up Route 13 in Nassawadox, VA,
26 miles north of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel,
Just north of the hospital, we're looking for seafood.
looms on a billboard, followed by
another billboard: "JUST SEAFOOD"
followed by: "CLOSED FOR THE SEASON"
followed by: "MOVED."
We note the painted red arrow, dripping like a bloodthirsty fish hook,
pointing left past "Yuk-Yuk and Joe's BBQ Grill," Shukey's Fireworks
and against all logic, but yes! The Great Machipango Clam Shack
is not closed for the season.
The Great Fish Deal is Grilled Veri Teri Ahi Tuna—marinated and seared.
Specials on oysters, seaside salts and bayside beauties, 50 count bag,
100 count bag, shucked, cooked, peeled, deveined.
Heat and eat cat fish, grouper, fat jimmies, claw, calamari, crab cakes
or lump backfin. Alligator tail sits with salt cod and seafood cakes,
Upper Crust Gourmet Fish fillets, ready to cook and serve, cooking instructions included.
Enter the waitress, black glasses sliding down her ski slope nose, pert as a prawn,
teeth as wide as the Coconut Crusted Tilapia, a New Zealand accent in her mouth,
mango and papaya sauce on her beige sweater.
Primping frizzed hair, spritzed with oyster and lime, she elbows through swinging doors
with a boisterous "Hey!" before she sees and greets us with: "Get your omega-3 Fatty Acids here!"
Cornbread Crusted Catfish on her collar, she brings us shrimp and roasted corn chowder,
wipes chives and cheddar on her apron, and with garlic on her breath counsels
"Any 10 fish - $29.95"
The ginger ale fizzes up our noses. We toss our cans in the recycle bin,
bolstered by this bayside beauty and omega-3 fatty acids, wave goodbye
as she calls after us: "Doctors Say Eat Fish Twice a Week!"
And pulling out on Route 13 with tuna in our teeth, zest of lemon under our fingernails,
mango and papaya sauce in our spirits, we take our leave of Nassawadox, VA,
digesting the feast.
Welcome to the Clamshack Chronicles! 05/12/2011
Who doesn't love the smell of fried grease mixing with the scent of the sea, the lilacs and honeysuckle bobbing along a stone wall, with the screech of clamoring gulls overhead?
Ok, maybe it's a New England thing, but my brother and I are professional clamshack crawlers, and invite you to join us for random posts as we crawl up and down the east coast looking for the perfect lobster roll or crab cake. Join us for the vicarious crunch of sand as we bite into the fried clam roll, with onion rings and slaw on the side. The pert little waitress, earning her next college semester this summer, looks on. Or maybe it's the surly and seasoned matriarch of a fisherman's family.
Maybe I scratch a poem on the paper placemat. Maybe Chef Pierre, browsing the morning catch at the local docks, concocts a new recipe to share. Photos and artwork will go into the Boatyard Gallery. Or Uncle Jack's Attic. Creative synergy WILL be happening.
First stop: Route 13, Nassawadox, VA. A pert little waitress...

The importance of itemized time tracking for project-orientated organizations
The saying 'time is money' is particularly relevant for project-orientated organizations. Is your budget on track? Employee payroll is a major line item, but employees are also a key source of profit generation. Itemized time tracking is essential in a project-focused company, and your HRMS is a means of easily managing your time and scheduling activities.
1. Future time forecasting depends on accurate data
Many companies sell goods and services that are heavily dependent upon the efforts of their employees. In some cases, the business model has the employee based at a customer site full-time, so it is critical to understand how much the customer is paying for that employee's time vs. the total salary expense. Understanding work hours and effort is crucial for management and sales teams as they make estimates for future contracts. It is not enough to know a headcount and each employee's average hourly rate; detailed data is needed. This is where an HRMS with itemized time tracking capabilities can help.
Past itemized time tracking can help a project manager hit the ground running on future projects once the deal is sold. Using the time tracking HRMS data, the project manager can use current employee job profiles and skills to plan for the new project by reviewing the actual time spent and then staffing up or down appropriately.
Recommended Reading: HRMS Software Guide - Find an HRMS with itemized time tracking capabilities
2. Your HRMS can highlight resource gaps in advance and help to solve them
Your HRMS should be a 'one-stop shop' for all time-related activities. It can be used for general employee scheduling by shift as well as displaying employee unavailability due to vacation or training. When an employee is tracking time at a task level, it is easy to measure the time taken over a specific period, as well as highlighting future gaps where a specific employee will be unavailable.
I have seen this HRMS data utilized heavily in global firms. Often a local manager or HR professional will only know staff in their location, so when a gap arises it involves phone calls or emails to borrow a resource or pay for a temp. Using the HRMS with itemized time tracking, an HR professional can now search for a profile in another location that logs similar hours on comparable tasks in order to find a replacement.
3. Itemized time tracking helps you to maximize profits
When you use itemized time tracking in your HRMS at the task level, you are able to model scenarios to maximize profits. If two employees can perform the same assignment, the higher cost one can be allocated to an area of more responsibility, thus generating more revenue. Itemized time tracking data from the HRMS can also be utilized by other parts of the organization-such as Six Sigma or continuous improvement teams-to increase profits by eliminating waste such as duplicate or redundant tasks.

Facebook shares more users' personal information with moderators than it has so far acknowledged, it has been revealed. The revelation comes to light after the social network was slammed last week for employing third-party content moderators in the developing world for one dollar an hour.
New evidence has, however, shown that these moderators, who have to deal with distressing images and messages, can clearly see the names of people who upload the 'offensive' content, the subject of the image or person tagged in a photo and the person who has reported the content. Moreover, there are currently no security measures to prevent these moderators from taking screen shots of people's personal photos, videos and posts.
"On Facebook, the picture alone is not the content. In evaluating potential violations of our rules it is necessary to consider who was tagged and by whom, and well as additional content such as comments. Everything displayed is to give content reviewers the necessary information to make the right, accurate decision," The Telegraph quoted a Facebook spokesperson, as saying in defence of charges levelled against the company.
His statement comes after a Facebook moderator, Amine Derkaoui showed several screenshots of what these outsourced workers see when deciding if a piece of content is suitable to be on the site.
Derkaoui, who was employed by oDesk, used by Facebook to employ outsourced content moderators, claimed that there was no decent security at all through the content system and looking at each report - was like "looking at a friend's Facebook page"- that's how much information was on there. A privacy specialist at Pitmans law firm, Philip James called on Facebook to improve the security around the content system.

261 F2d 744 McAbee v. United States
261 F.2d 744
104 U.S.App.D.C. 278
Philip N. McABEE, Petitioner,
UNITED STATES of America, Respondent.
Misc. No. 1114.
United States Court of Appeals District of Columbia Circuit.
Nov. 13, 1958, Petition for Rehearing In Banc Denied Jan. 15, 1959.
Mr. Philip N. McAbee, pro se.
Messrs. Oliver Gasch, U.S. Atty., and Carl W. Belcher and Charles W. Halleck, Asst. U.S. Attys., Washington, D.C., for appellee.
Before PRETTYMAN, Chief Judge, and BAZELON and BASTIAN, Circuit Judges, in Chambers.
Upon consideration of petitioner's motion for leave to prosecute an appeal in forma pauperis, of respondent's opposition, and of petitioner's reply, it is
Order by the court that the aforesaid motion is denied.
BAZELON, Circuit Judge (dissenting).
This is an application for leave to appeal in forma pauperis from the District Court's denial of petitioner's pro se motion under 2255, 28 U.S.C., to vacate his sentence for housebreaking and larceny convictions. Petitioner has not been represented by counsel since the day he was sentenced. His convictions have not been reviewed by this court on direct appeal and the present motion to vacate, as well as three earlier post-conviction motions, were denied without hearing by the District Court.
The instant application does not expressly raise the question whether petitioner is entitled to review by way of direct appeal from his convictions. But from examining the files and records in this case for the purpose of considering the presnt application, it appears that petitioner sufficiently indicated his intention to appeal his conviction to give this court jurisdiction. Williams v. United States, 1951, 88 U.S.App.D.C. 212, 188 F.2d 41. Hence before acting on the present application, I would appoint counsel for petitioner to file a memorandum on the question whether petitioner may be said to have abandoned that appeal or whether there is excusable neglect for petitioner's failure to pursue the appeal in this court from his convictions; and I would provide counsel with a transcript of the trial proceedings so that we may be advised whether there are any questions for which a direct appeal in forma pauperis may be allowed. Belton v. United States, 104 U.S.App.D.C. , 259 F.2d 811; Blunt v. United States, 1957, 100 U.S.App.D.C. 266, 244 F.2d 355.
That petitioner indicated his unequivocal intention to appeal, sufficient to vest this court with jurisdiction, appears from the following. Sentence was imposed in open court on April 13, 1956. The judgment of conviction and the commitment were filed on April 19, 1956. The day before, on April 18, 1956, petitioner had written to the Clerk of the District Court, in pertinent part, as follows:
'* * * It is my intention to appeal said conviction in the U.S. Court of Appeals. I am without said funds to hire a lawyer so I would appreciate if you would forward to me the necessary papers so I may file a paupers oath so I may obtain counsel in my case.
'If this letter should have to go to the Clerk of the U.S. Court of Appeals I would appreciate your forwarding this letter to him.'
The tenth day following the filing of the judgment of conviction fell on Sunday, April 29. Hence the last day for noting an appeal was automatically extended to Monday, April 30. On that day petitioner filled out a form of affidavit of poverty, furnished by the Clerk of the District Court, and requested leave to appeal. The affidavit was notarized on that date at the District of Columbia jail. By letter of May 9, 1956, the Clerk of the District Court advised petitioner as follows:
'There is enclosed herewith a certified copy of a Memorandum signed by Judge Alexander Holtzoff denying your affidavit in support of application for leave to proceed on appeal without prepayment of costs. Your Notice of Appeal is returned herewith.'
That petitioner did not abandon his intention to appeal appears from the following. He sent to the Clerk of the District Court motion papers, to obtain a transcript at Government expense, which were notarized June 5, 1956, and received on June 12. This was denied on June 19 and petitioner was advised by letter the following day. Further actions of petitioner included:
(1) Motion to vacate sentence, alleging violation of Rules 5 and 41, Fed.R.Crim.P. 18 U.S.C. Filed June 28, 1956. Denied July 23, 1956, without notation.
(2) Petition for leave to appeal denial of 2255 motion in forma pauperia. Denied August 22, 1956, with notation that appeal was not taken in good faith and 'utterly lacking in substance.'
(3) Motion to vacate sentence under 28 U.S.C. 2255. Filed June 6, 1957. Denied June 11, 1957, as a second successive motion for similar relief. Following this last denial, petitioner sought leave of this court to appeal in forma pauperis (Misc. 888). We denied that application on October 31, 1957, and petitioner petitioned the Supreme Court for certiorari which was denied on March 3, 1958. 355 U.S. 964, 78 S.Ct. 554, 2 L.Ed.2d 539. The present action was instituted by petitioner on June 9, 1958, and relief was denied by the District Court on June 16. Thereafter petitioner filed the instant application for leave to appeal in forma pauperis.

The picture below, taken from Wikipedia because there are cranes now all over it during its completion, shows the famous Basilica I Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Familia. Construction began in 1882 and has proceeded off and on since. Now, in 2011, it is only halfway complete. The name Gaudi, as it refers to the architecture so prevalent here, refers to Catalan architect Antoni Gaud

Here's the Deal
Slant is written by a community helping you be informed. Tell us what you're passionate about to get an awesome personalized feed.
Pro Single File Components
Components can contain a stylesheet, markup and script in one file. It can even use alternatives/compile-tos: instead of CSS: SASS/Less/Stylus/etc. instead of HTML: Jade/Handlebars/etc. instead of JS: Coffeescript/ES6/Typescript/etc.
Pro Similar syntax
It uses a similar syntax: v-for as ng-for v-model as ng-model etc.

 {{user.name}} - {{user.email}} <button v-on:click="removeUser(user)">X</butto...
Con Is not as complete as Angular
In the context of the question, Vue.js is not as feature-rich as Angular or Aurelia.
Con Not a complete solution
Does not do everything for the developer, it's merely a tool for building the UI of a web app. It does not have support for routing or models, at least not out of the box
Pro Easy to reuse components
Since every single UI component is created independently in JavaScript, it becomes very easy to reuse them throughout your app without having to re-write them.
Pro Server side rendering
React can render it's components and data server side, then it sends those components as HTML to the browser. This ensures faster initial loading time and SEO friendliness out of the box, since it's indexed as any other static website by search engines.
Con Verbose
React gets a little verbose as applications get more complicated with more components. It's simply not as straightforward as simply writing HTML and JavaScript would be.
Con No support for legacy browsers
React has recently dropped support for Internet Explorer 8. While the library may still work on IE8, issues that affect only IE8 will not be prioritized and/or solved.
Pro Few abstractions
Aurelia tries to abstract as few concepts as possible. For example: controllers are ES2015 classes, same thing with factories and providers. Since everything is already a standard JavaScript class, it's easier to understand how everything actually works.
Con Small following
Aurelia is pretty new compared to some of the other options here and it hasn't had a fast adoption rate from developers. Which unfortunately translates in relatively fewer resources and guides from which to learn the framework.
Con Self-paced training options are very limited right now
There's not as much training resources available for Aurelia as there are for other Javascript frameworks. This will be fixed in time as more and more developers use Aurelia, but for the time being it may be a bit harder for beginners to find entry-level guides and tutorials.
Pro Easy to learn
Two easy to read pages of documentation and you'll be ready to build your first application. Plus the syntax is very close the HTML and JavaScript, and to start making some complex functionality you only need to know around 10 API methods.
Pro No dependencies
Riot doesn't have any dependencies, adding to the fact that it's a very lightweight library.
Pro Fast rendering
Mithril's loading times are very fast. This is because it's templates are compiled first and then served to the browser and because it uses a virtual DOM. The virtual DOM is a virtual tree containing all the nodes of the real DOM, every time anything changes in the virtual DOM, Mithril does
Pro Easy to learn
The small API, massive documentation and the fact that you really have to learn only one function, m.mount to get started makes Mithril very easy to learn and start with.
Con Small API can make it unsuitable for larger more complex projects
Mithril's small API and small number of functions while helpful for small projects and applications where speed is needed, can add another layer of complexity in larger more complex applications where a more extensive API is needed out of the box.
Pro Easy to learn
Has a low entry barrier and an easy learning curve. It's especially easy to learn for beginners.
Pro Great documentation
The excellent tutorials with built-in exercises are a great learning experience, even for people without prior MVVM and data binding experience.
Con Can become complex once the application grows large
Knockout leaves the application structure to the developer and it can become quite complex and unmanageable in the hands of a beginner once the application grows large and complex.
Pro Tightly integrated with underscore.js
Backbone collections and models are extended by underscore.js method allowing you to call underscore methods directly on the Backbone objects.
Pro Lightweight unopinionated views
A lightweight view class is provided but there is no default templating method implemented. Because views are minimal it allows for much more freedom to implement views however you would like, and because of this freedom it's possible to write views to more uniquely adapt to a problem. User i...
Con Requires more coding compared to other frameworks
Because many features are not provided out of the box, you either have to write more base class code to get those features, or find a plugin that provides them in a way you like. It does not provide much structure either, things like memory management must be kept in mind by the developer, also t...
Con No data binding
Backbone does not have data binding support. However, there are some libraries that can be implemented in order to have data binding in Backbone. Such as Epoxy
Pro Opinionated in terms of application structure
Ember already defines the general application structure and organization for you. This was done to prevent developers from making mistakes which would needlessly over-complicate their application. While it's still possible to go out of these practices forced to developers by the Ember authors,...
Pro Ember-CLI
Ember-CLI is a very useful tool. With just a couple of commands it scaffolds the code, installs dependencies and finally compiles everything itself. It's very useful to quickstart an Ember project.
Con Large library size
At 69Kb gzipped, it is one of the largest JavaScript frameworks. This means Ember might be an overkill to use on simpler projects.
Con Very opinionated
Ember (and many extensions, like Ember Data) force the implementation down specific architectural paths. These paths are what Ember believes is best practice and typically are fine, but not in all cases. This can occasionally lead to fighting with your framework which is never productive.
Pro Promising futuristic framework with great ecosystem
Polymer in 2016 has come a long way and seems to have good long term promise in this fast evolving space. Polymer 2.0 is just around the corner with lot more improvements. Great out of box polymer paper components and with polymer CLI, the ecosystem does seem easily approachable unlike react/redux...
Pro Based on web components
Web Components are a collection of specifications released by W3C as a way to reduce the complexity of web apps by creating reusable components. Browser support is currently poor for web components, however Polymer is developed to make web components compatible with modern browsers.
Con Slow performance in mobile
Since most mobile web browsers don't have a very powerful JS engine, Polymer can be a little slow for mobile devices.
Con Lack of browser support
Due to web components being so new, there is still a lot of issues with browser compatibility. Though Polymer has solved some of these compatibility issues with polyfills, there is still a lot of bugs and unpredictability.
Monkberry is blazingly fast, small 1kb and simple JavaScript library for building web user interfaces.
Pro Powerful
Two Way Data-Binding, Templates, Directives, Text directives, Static bindings, Invisible mode and more.
Con Doesn't have many things that Angular has
Angular light doesn't have things like directives, services, factories, router etc... built in.

Numbers were up on last year, likely due to Catherine's homemade lunches. As an experiment, they had a formal game review session at tiered levels, between rounds two and three, and most players chose to attend, enjoy and debate. The schedule accommodated this with the main time preserved, but byoyomi made more aggressive.
Toby Manning was again the overall winner.
The European Team Championship started on Tuesday 17th September. Our first match was against Greece.
Greece's team entered was quite a bit weaker than ours, so this was a match we really needed to win if we were to hope for promotion again to the B league after being relegated last season.
As the autumn term gets underway and we start thinking of the exciting Go events in 2014, including the European Youth Go Championships coming to England, let's remind ourselves about one of the exciting events earlier this year.
23 youngsters competed in the 2013 finals of the UK Go Challenge, held at Milton C of E Primary School near Cambridge. It was especially good to see two brothers from Bungay at their first event.
Congratulations go to the top 3 overall place-winners: 1. Oscar Selby, 2. David Robson, 3.
After 13 years of trying, John Culmer (1k Cornwall) won the event he organises, the Cornish Open. He topped the list of 22 players by beating Ian Marsh (1k Bracknell) in the final. Also winning 3/3 were Cornish players Robert Churchill (11k) and Matt Dodkins (20k).
Eric Hall, 5k from Swindon, was again the winner of the rapid play Cornish Handicap Tournament. He beat local player Sam Foster, 2k, in the final. Others of the 20 players who won 3/4 were Tony Atkins (1d Reading), John Culmer (1k Cornwall), Ian Marsh (1k Bracknell), Sue Paterson (4k Arundel) and Elinor Brooks (8k Swindon).
The weekend, 9-10 November is part of an ongoing series of events and will bring together some of the UK's strongest players for an intensive training weekend with the aim of increasing the number of UK players graded over 2400.
The Chinese professional and Vice-Chairman of the Chinese Weiqi Association, Wang Runan (8p), visited the British Museum on Saturday 7th September. He spoke to a lecture theatre containing nearly 100 people interested in Chinese Culture, including some British Go players, on the subject of Weiqi (Go) in Chinese Culture.
We're pleased to announce that old tournament results have now been linked to the Tournament Records on our website. This will allow you to easily browse details of old events for each tournament, going back to 1996 in many cases.
See the London Open for an example.
We now have agreement to hold a stall at the Mind Sports Festival in Cardiff on September 14-15th. This will be run by the British Go Association in conjunction with the Cardiff Go Club.
There is some information about this and other Mind Sports Festivals here: http://www.mindsportsfestivals.com.
Andrew Kay ended 24th with 4 wins in the World Amateur in Sendai. He lost to Korea, beat Turkey, lost to Switzerland and beat New Zealand. In round 5 he beat Indonesia, then lost to Israel and Sweden, and beat Slovenia.
James Hutchinson for Ireland also won 4 and took 31st.

Not so with the VX-809/Kalydeco combination, as far as we know. To date, Vertex has told us that the sweat chloride was reduced in patients treated with the 600 mg dose of VX-809 but it was not statistically significant relative to placebo. Vertex has downplayed the significance of this endpoint "miss," arguing that little is known about the actual correlation between sweat chloride and lung function improvement. At the conference on Thursday, investors will be looking for more data on sweat chloride in the 200 mg and 400 mg VX-809 groups to see if there is any dose response. 4. Why did VX-809 as a monotherapy do worse than placebo? What activity does VX-809 have in the first place? These are great questions from Karnauskas because they highlight one of the weirder data points from the phase II study. During the first 28 days of the study, the lung function of patients treated with VX-809 declined more than patients treated with a placebo. It was only in the second half of the study when VX-809 was combined with Kalydeco that lung function rebounded and eventually showed a numerical improvement.
Placebo patient lung function continued to decline throughout the 56 days of the study. Vertex insists that VX-809 and Kalydeco are synergistic and the company has committed to studying the combination in the phase III study? But the reasons for VX-809 monotherapy performing worse than placebo have not been explained. 5. What were the baseline values for the patients in the study? "We know very little about the baseline characteristics of the population studied," says Karnauskas. "We will be looking at baseline FEV1 and sweat chloride levels. Our doc checks say that mild CF disease is harder to show a benefit." Generally, Deutsche Bank's Karnauskas believes Thursday's VX-809/Kalydeco data presentation will raise investor confidence in Vertex's cystic fibrosis program, including the phase III study expected to start in early 2013. "We believe the stock is currently reflecting an approximate 55% probability of success in this population. We assume a 75% probability of success by year-end 2013, which we think is fair for a phase II asset. The fair value of Vertex on phase III success is approximately $94 per share," she writes. Vertex shares were up 1% to $59.16 in early Tuesday trading. -- Reported by Adam Feuerstein in Boston. Follow @AdamFeuerstein

This is one of my favorite episodes. The dialogue between Ross and Rachel is so hilarious. We all knew that Rachel had the capacity to be a b!tch, but she really has fun with this episode. My favorite line is when Ross tells Rachel, "We should ask the doctor if she even knows how to deliver a baby that's half human, half PURE EVIL!" It cracks me up.
Plus, I think every Friends fan was excited for the Ross-and-Rachel moment that happens at the very end of the episode. With Rachel going into labor, we were all hoping for Ross and Rachel to get back together.

In Rio de Janeiro, civic complaints collected via hotline and mobile app
First we saw New York establish a dedicated phone number for civic services, then we saw like-minded initiatives from San Francisco, Boston and the Dutch city of Eindhoven, to name just a few. The latest spotting? None other than Rio de Janeiro, which just launched a new system of its own whereby citizens can report problems via app or phone.

The original Danno on Hawaii Five-O died in Florida of natural causes on Thursday. He was 72. MacArthur, who was the son of Helen Hayes and playwright Charles MacArthur, was at the other end of one of TV's most famous lines: "Book'em Danno" was the order whenever his TV partner Steve McGarrett (Jack Lord) caught the bad guy. Scott Caan currently plays Danno in the CBS remake of the original, which ran from 1968-1980. MacArthur was also in several Disney films, including Swiss Family Robinson and Kidnapped.
R.I.P. James MacArthur
17 Comments
Book em Danno! RIP
RIP Danno! Thanks for a great run!
MacArthur came from a generation when the kids of celebrities often went on to success without fucking up (are you listening, Charlie Sheen?) like Michael Douglas (Kirk's son) and William Hopper (the son of Hedda Hopper). I miss that work ethic.
Danno Loved him. He made the show along with Steve. Was a great cast all around. R.I.P.
72 is too young for natural causes – so sad.
I saw him at a memorabilia show last March, and he did not appear to be well. He was very very frail looking.
He is one of my Disney favorites. I still like Swiss Family Robinson.
RIP Mr. MacArthur.
The one and only Danno.
Very talented man.
I am surprisingly upset by this – I'm 23 years old and just watched the pilot episode of the original last night (CBS has a good amount of episodes on their website from Season 1) – it was the first time I had seem any part of the original. Talk about timing. I'm a fan of the remake and can appreciate the legacy MacArthur passed down to a new generation. Rest in peace, Danno.
He was a real gentleman and a very kind man. He will be missed.
The whole, original, Five O gang is together again. Aloha Danno. You were greatly loved and will be greatly missed.
MacArthur also had some memorable feature roles beyond his Disney work. Who can forget his nervous Ensign Ralston opposite Richard Widmark in The Bedford Incident. He was also quite memorable as the green lieutenant who mans up in Battle of the Bulge. RIP
I had such a crush on him when he starred in Light in the Forest. I was just a young teenager then. He was great in all of his roles, movies and TV. Seemed like a classy guy, really a nice person. He was indispensible in the original Hawaii Five-O, a solid presence. I always would watch anything that he was in, he was just an appealing character, no matter what the role. I surely will miss him.
Damn… I grew up with the phrase "Book 'em, Danno" – I think I watched the entire run of that show. I also remember him from "Swiss Family Robinson" and "Kidnapped", and I even saw him in the 80's revival of "The Front Page" on stage. He may have been 'just' the supporting actor on "Hawaii Five-0", but his role (and acting) helped make the show.
I must be getting old… too many of the actors of stage and screen that I grew up watching are dying off; and most of them will be very much missed, true professionals from an earlier age.
When I repped his Helen Hayes at ICM, I had many dealings with James. He was always like his mom: kind, caring, insightful, principled and generous. This is such a shame.
The newly remade series is such a pale sad comparison to the original. Back in the day Hawaii Five-0 ran twelve years! I give this new run at it about 12 minutes.
RIP James aka Danno! He was a fantastic actor.
It might have been better to post a video clip from The Truth About Spring or The Swiss Family Robinson – with a topless Danno.
Now that is a memory.
Shame. I have heard he was a lovely man.

Dear Friend,
Making money on demand is easy when you have a list of super responsive subscribers.
But if you have a small list or if your list seems to be "dead", trying to get money from them is like trying to extract teeth - it just doesn't happen easily.
Even if you do have a big list, it doesn't matter how many subscribers you have, the only thing that equals dollars in your pocket is how they well respond to your emails.
Too many marketers are experiencing poor performance from their email list so if you thought it was just you, you're not alone.
Well now, you can find out how to make more money from your list or build it full of subscribers who will open and read your emails for literally cents on the dollar!
What Makes The Difference Between A 6-Figure List And A "Dead" List?
Screw all those big guru guys who say "build a massive list and make millions!"

Dear Friend,
There are literally TONS of books out there telling you how to make money with adsense!
- Have they helped you at all?
- How many do you own?
- Have you made a single cent more because of them?
Actually, some of them are quite good, but there's an important piece that's missing from every one of them, an important piece that's preventing you from taking advantage of that VERY lucrative way to make unlimited amounts of money.
In fact, Adsense is SUCH a lucrative source of income that there are many people who make an excellent living doing nothing but Adsense!
What if..... ?
I could offer you a solution that required absolutely NO technical knowledge, a plug and play way to start yourself on the road to Adsense bucks - would you be interested?

Find Out Why YOU Are Cheating Yourself Out Of A Better Solution And How You Can Use The Leverage Of Resell Rights In Your Favor And Be The Next Best-Selling Author Rather Than Just A Best-Writing Author!
Dear eBook Author,
Are you tired of hearing the same old lines like: "Write an eBook, start an affiliate program, and get your affiliate slaves to sell for you"? Well actually, in several instances, most affiliates are really slaves.
Most of them are lazy. Most of them having poor self-motivation. Most of them can't do things right. Most of them hardly earn anything, and you know what that means? You don't get your share of the money, too, if they don't perform well!
Don't get me wrong, though. There ARE super affiliates out there whom you wish would join your affiliate program. And there is absolutely nothing wrong starting an affiliate program to sell your eBook in the first place.
But seriously, I strongly feel you are cheating yourself of a better solution.
You have probably written an eBook which you are planning to sell in the Internet marketplace. You have carefully researched the market and learned that there is a huge demand for the information you present in your digital eBook.
Or you have already tried selling your eBook, but with little success. You may have tried selling on your own or wonder why your affiliates are not working as hard as you thought they should be. And right now, you are... Click here to read the full description!

Course Overview
Understanding bacterial pathogenesis demands understanding the host response as well as the pathogen itself. Both of these perspectives provide potential strategies for solving important clinical problems. To elucidate these distinct aspects of microbial pathogenesis requires an interdisciplinary approach, integrating the fields of microbiology, eukaryotic cell biology, immunology, and genomics. Many recent developments have expanded our understanding of microbial pathogenesis and the host response to infection. The insights have important implications for both the treatment of microbial diseases and the development of new treatments for microbial diseases. Because these issues are so pervasive, this course has relevance to medical students as well as graduate students and students planning to work in public health related fields.
Course Goals and Objectives
The faculty strive to:
- Provide medical students with a broad-based foundation in the basic concepts of medical Microbiology.
- Prepare students for entry into the clinical curriculum.
- Provide students with an introduction to Infectious Diseases that will sustain them throughout their medical careers.
At the end of this course students will be able to:
- Explain relationships and apply appropriate terminology relating to the structure, metabolism, genetics, and ecology of prokaryotic microorganisms, eukaryotic microorganisms, and viruses.
- Explain interactions between opportunistic and pathogenic microorganisms and susceptible hosts in contacts that result in infection and/or disease and apply these interactions to disease symptoms.
- Explain innate and adaptive immune responses and apply this understanding to the infectious disease process as well as the prevention and control of infectious diseases.
- Explain principles of physical and chemical methods used in the control of microorganisms and apply this understanding to the prevention and control of infectious diseases.
- Demonstrate an appreciation and understanding of clinical laboratory skills and techniques related to the isolation, staining, identification, assessment of metabolism, and control of microorganisms.
- Interpret and draw appropriate conclusions from laboratory results.
- Analyze and distinguish therapeutic treatments for microbial infections, and distinguish when a vaccine, antibiotic, or other therapy is likely to be the most appropriate response.
- Specify the role of ecology and evolution in the spread of infectious diseases, comparing the role of transmission, population size and susceptibility, and virulence in endemic disease, epidemic disease, emerging diseases, and bioterrorism
- Develop the ability to work both independently and with others in teams and study groups.
- Develop an information base for making personal health decisions in regard to infectious diseases.

If he asked me out I would say yes or give him my cell #.
How can I hint to him that he should ask?
any other advice for me?
Most Helpful Guy
The next time you run into him - and don't make a big deal about it - just give him your cell #, and simply say something like, "I just wanted you to have this".
Make it seem spontaneous... at the end of your conversation, pull out a pen and a little note pad and write your number down for him.
Then, just say "talk to you soon", smile and walk away. Make sure you give him a big smile. He'll get the picture, unless he's a complete dope.
Remember, don't ask, just do it. Most men love women who are confident.00|00|0

When the iron heads were formed Brogg was the first to join and had a history on the battlefield. When the iron heads visited a dwarven hold their head runepriest told them that Brogg and The Marauder must be bound as brothers of battle. A ritual that hadent been conducted in centuries. It is simply a process of transfering blood binding them magicaly as brothers. The ritual leaves a long scar on the forearm of both Brogg and The Marauder. After the ritual Marauder gained the strength of ten orcs and he can heal faster than most humans. Brogg lost the monsterous mind of an orc so he has selfcontrol and is far more intelligent he also oddly gained the ability to reproduce. Normal orcs cant do that because their born form fungis. After the fall of the Ironheads Brogg and the Marauder fled into the US. When they were in Seattle they were ambushed at one of their "safe" houses by a pack of wolfmen. As they ran they were cornered Brogg told Marauder to run while he held them off. The Marauder thought he was dead but apparently not. After the fight he went to the goblin underground and stayed there until Marauder and Thalia came to the underground.
Brogg is a basic orc, big and green. Due to the fact that he has human blood in him he grew a v-shaped chin. He has almost as many scars as The Marauder. From the wolfmen ambush he has three claw marks across his face and is missing his left ear.
Brogg is unlike any orc before him. He does not cause fights every chance and shows mercy and compation. He loves his brother The Marauder and will do anything to keep him safe. Brogg is relaxed and calm both on and off the battlefield and is never angry. The strangest thing about him is that he is a better fighter than most orcs and secret behind an orc's brutality is their anger focused and amplified. So its weird that the calmist orc is the most powerful.

Buzz In: What Are the Most Divisive Movies?
Recently, I was doing some reading about the Netflix Prize, the $1 million Netflix has offered to the person or team who can improve the movie rental service's recommendation feature by 10 percent. So far, no team has made it, and a big part of the reason is what's being called "the Napoleon Dynamite problem" — the notion that there's just no good way to predict whether people will love or hate the 2004 comedy. To be fair to Napoleon, it's not the only one: I Heart Huckabees, Lost in Translation, and Kill Bill are also among the culprits.
That got me thinking about movies that even people who have similar tastes can't agree on. What are the movies that have caused divides in your movie-going circles? What films are you nervous to recommend? Do you think there's any good way to tell if someone will love or loathe Napoleon Dynamite?

I wash my face like I was my dishes.
No, not with dishwashing detergent. Eww! I don't want to ruin my skin.
No, I wash my face with a sponge. And not just any sponge. A konjac sponge. It's a bit ironic, really. The girl who can't be bothered to use a washcloth now swears by a sponge.
But, hey, this stuff is all the range in Asia. Like double cleansing. And snail slime. And those two have been game-changers for me. And, after trying snail slime, what's a little konjac sponge?
So try it I did. And now, I'm telling you to do the same. Here's why:
What The Heck Is A Konjac Sponge?
A konjac sponge looks like a pumice stone, but it's not made of stone at all. Who would use it if it were?
Konjac sponges are made of a natural fiber that comes from devil's tongue, a potato-like plant that grows in Korea, China, and Japan.
Add in some clays and, sometimes, charcoal, and you've got a cleansing device that's 100% biodegradable. So, you don't even have to feel guilty when it's time to throw it away. Pretty cool, huh?
What Does A Konjac Sponge Do?
A konjac sponge is basically a cleanser and exfoliant rolled into one. Softer than a loofah and finer than a washcloth, its unique texture gently removes dirt, oil, dead skin cells, and even stubborn makeup. Once all that crap is off your face, your skin is much softer to the touch and looks brighter. Makeup goes on better, too.
Best of all, konjac sponges are so gentle, even those with sensitive skin or rosacea can use them without fear of irritations (unless you overdo it, of course).
What Doesn't A Konjac Sponge Do?
Konjac sponges are awesome, but not as awesome as the folks who sell them say they are (what a surprise!).
Konjac sponges can't:
- Heal acne: they don't kill P. Acnes, the bacteria that causes it
- Draw impurities out of the skin: charcoal, often praised for this feat, can't really do it.
What konjac sponges can do is remove excess oil, and that helps prevent breakouts. That's it.
Why Are Konjac Sponges Better Than A Washcloth?
(Or, why can't you be bothered to use a washcloth, but have no problems using the sponge, you lazy girl?)
Two reasons:
1. You can use less product:
Konjac sponges have bouncy and rubbery textures that absorb a lot of water and make a thick lather even when you use only the tiniest drop of cleanser. So, you can use less product than you would with a washcloth.
2. Dries quickly between uses
I hate using washcloths because they take ages to dry. And you can't use a washcloth when it's still a bit damp, because bacteria thrive in wet environments. And who wants nasty bacteria on their faces? Konjac sponges dry a lot faster, so it's great for those of you who, like me, have no patience, or can't be bothered to do their laundry too often.
How Do You Use A Konjac Sponge?
If you've never used a konjac sponge before, you'll probably wonder how anyone could use something so bloody hard on their skin.
That's because the sponge is still dry. Soak it in warm water for a few minutes, and it'll become super soft. That's when you can use it. So, how do you do it?
- Splash your face with lukewarm water.
- Squeeze a few drops of your favourite cleanser onto the sponge.
- Massage the sponge on your skin using circular motions.
- When you're done, rinse the sponge with warm water and press it between your hands to remove excess water.
- Let it air dry.
Konjac sponges are so gentle, chances are you can use them every day. But, they do exfoliate skin, so if yours is particularly sensitive, you may want to try using it only two or three times a week. Just experiment to find out what the right frequency for you is.
How Long Does A Konjac Sponge Last?
Usually, a good quality konjac sponge should last you for a full 3 months. To make sure it doesn't get ruined before that time, DON'T wring it out: I can't stress this enough. Wringing it out makes the fibers deteriorates quickly.
Where Can I Get A Konjac Sponge?
Konjac sponges are starting to pop up everywhere. They now come in all kinds of shapes and are enriched with all kinds of things (charcoal, clays, green tea, lavender….).
I like mine cute and simple, as I don't believe the extra "goodies" really do anything, especially if you use a cleanser (wouldn't they just end up down the drain?).
So, which ones do I recommend?
- Boscia Konjac Cleansing Sponge ($15.00): a basic konjac sponge that gets the job done (available at Sephora).
- Erborian Natural Konjac Sponge (£10.00): same thing as the Boscia. No frills. Gets the job done (available at Space NK).
- Sephora Clean Machine Konjac Sponge Duo Love Me: Pink And Red Clays ($7.00): these clays are said to be hydrating, but that's not why I love the sponges. The reason is more shallow: they're pink and red and shaped like hearts. Told you it was shallow. But, hey, you get two sponges at a cheaper price, so it's still a pretty good deal (available at Sephora).
The Bottom Line
I wouldn't say konjac sponges are a must have, but you'll miss out if you don't ever give them a try. They cleanse and exfoliate skin at the same time, taking your skincare routine up a notch, leaving your skin softer, smoother, and brighter.
