Young adults learn it's not so hard to save a life
Opinionated Sandy, UTSept. 25, 2013 12:27 p.m.
I'm too old...they don't want me...otherwise i would sign up in a second. What a small price to pay for saving a life. Come on folks...sign up. I'm sending this article link to my family and recommending it.
Smallville Clearfield, UTSept. 25, 2013 11:39 a.m.
I would love to donate, unfortunately, I just found out that because I myself, was a bone marrow transplant recipient as a child, I am disqualified, as a healthy adult, from donating. They say that there is not enough science to show if there are risks from a former recipient donating.
Woogyboo SALT LAKE CITY, UTSept. 25, 2013 11:39 a.m.
To be a bone marrow donor you have to be under 50 as I recall. To be put on the list if you are older than that requires a $100 donation. Feel free to check the age thing but for me to be considered cost me $100 which seemed like a scam.

text: We're going to Vegas to see a concert at the Hard Rock and are interested in some recs for dinner close by (walking distance). I did a search, but it sounds like many of the previous restaurants at the Hard Rock have closed or been replaced. Any price range is OK, not interested in alcohol. I heard there was a good ramen/sushi place nearby? Mostly just interested in good chow, thanks for any recs!

PM's Chief Aide Accused of Harassing Coworker
Justice Ministry spokesman: At this stage we have found no real substantiation of the information and haven't opened an official investigation.
The Civil Service Commission has recently examined a complaint that the head of the Prime Minister's Office harassed a female coworker by invading her privacy and following her after work.
The examination into the accusation against Natan Eshel has yet to be completed, but a Justice Ministry spokesman said yesterday, "At this stage we have found no real substantiation of the information and haven't opened an official investigation."
Army Radio reported yesterday that an employee at the Prime Minister's Office told her colleagues she was harassed by a senior official who read her text messages and looked at her private e-mail account.
Haaretz has learned that the worker did not want to complain to police or the Civil Service Commission, but that several days ago an anonymous complaint reached Attorney General Yehuda Weinstein, who referred it to the commission's disciplinary department, which was ordered to examine the reliability of the information.
The commission secretly questioned employees in the Prime Minister's Office who work with Eshel and the woman, who have been working together closely for the past three years. The information they gathered did not substantiate the initial information. The employee still refuses to complain to police or the commission.
Weinstein will have to determine, following the initial examination, if there is cause to continue gathering information and to open a commission or even a police investigation, but this seems unlikely.
The Prime Minister's Office said yesterday, "No complaint has been submitted against a senior official in the office, and this is merely an examination of gossip."
Eshel continued to work as usual yesterday, until a late hour. Sources close to him said that those who passed on the information to the attorney general were "elements who spread cheap gossip."
Sources in the Prime Minister's Office believe the affair is part of power struggles in the office. Although tensions between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's aides have abated in the past few months, Eshel and some colleagues have had bitter confrontations.
Eshel, formerly deputy director general of Israel Hayom, the pro-Netanyahu daily, is considered one of the prime minister's most powerful aides. He was deeply involved in Defense Minister Ehud Barak's resignation from the Labor Party and led drives to persuade Kadima MKs to resign.

Fwd: LADWP Urges Customers to Conserve Energy Today

- From: Jack Humphreville <Jack@...>

Subject: LADWP Urges Customers to Conserve Energy Today
To: Jack Humphreville <Jack@...>
Power Down
DATE: August 31, 2009 10:21:33 PST
The Station Fire Threatens Power
Transmission Lines While Temperatures
And Energy Demand
Remain High
LOS ANGELES- The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) asks all
customers to conserve as much energy as possible today as the Station Fire rages
in the Angeles National Forest and high temperatures continue to increase energy
demand from customers.
The Station Fire has the potential to cross and affect the Department's 500
KV transmission lines northeast of the Acton area today. These high-voltage
power lines are critical to maintaining a steady supply of power to the city,
especially as demand for energy rises throughout the day.
To make up for the potential loss of power transmission, the LADWP has
activated all in-basin power plants in order to generate energy.
The LADWP?power distribution system is functioning normally during the
current heatwave. The threat posed by the Station Fire is to two transmission
lines used for importing power into its system. The threat to these lines,
combined with the typical high energy demand on hot days, makes it even more
necessary that all customers make every effort to reduce their energy demand
immediately and continue to do so throughout the day.
Residents are urged to turn off air conditioners if possible and when safe,
or otherwise run their air conditioner systems at 78 degrees or higher; turn off
lights not currently in use and avoid using appliances as long as doing so does
not compromise their or their family members' health or safety.
The Department is vigilantly monitoring the fire and in the event there is
reason to believe the LADWP system may be impacted, we will update the media and
the public accordingly.
For updates, please go to www.ladwpnews.com and follow the
Department's Twitter account, @LADWP.

Beer enthusiasts will be able to enjoy a range of real ales, including ten from overseas, during a 19 day festival at a Louth pub.
The overseas beers on offer at The Joseph Morton in Pawnshop Passage, Kidgate, have been sourced from brewers in Japan, Lithuania, Holland, Australia, Canada, Italy, USA and Belgium.
The festival will also feature beers from across the UK, including speciality beers (ingredients include heather, grapefruit and elderberries), as well as beers brewed exclusively for the pub.
It will run from Wednesday October 24 until Sunday November 11.
The UK beers will include; Ghost Train (Box Steam), Moonraker (J.W.Lees), Crafty Devil (Thwaites), Squadron Scrabble (Tring), Howling Wolf (Banks's), War Horse (White Horse), Hopocalypse Vale (Vale), Gunpowder Mild (Coach House) and Kookaburra (Cotleigh).
Pub manager Emma Keeley said: "The festival will give people the opportunity to enjoy a superb selection of UK and international beers.
"We will be serving the largest selection of overseas beers ever available in the pub, together with a fantastic range of UK beers.
"Many of the beers on offer have not been available in the pub beforehand and I am looking forward to serving them.
"The festival promises to be great fun and I am certain that customers at The Joseph Morton will enjoy themselves."
Customers will be able to sample any three of the real ales in special third-of-a-pint glasses for the price of a pint.
Tasting notes on all of the beers will be available in the pub.

I think one of the biggest problems, also, sits with the judges. They show favoritism something fierce and while they mean for the audience to vote the way they are leading them, it often backfires. Jessica is a prime example of that. They praised her to high heaven and what did the public do? Voted her off.
What other shows do better is they want singers who can hold a note. I mean you would not pay money to see a comedian that was not funny. A musician that could not play a instrument. Idol knows what Phillip lacks in vocals can be put in on the backend. The fans don't find out until they lay out money to see them live. Then the goose as they say is cooked and Phillip will be lost in the shuffle like Taylor Hicks.
Everyone wants to hold Taylor Hicks as an example, but are there any other contestants that have secured a 3 month gig in Las Vegas? If this is failure, I reckon many would love to have a dose of it.
If Phillip ends up making a decent living making music - in whatever capacity - then he is a success. Funny, but I was sending my sister links to various performances of several of the contestants and she said that she loves Phillip's voice, that he is head and shoulders better than Jessica, and that he's the only one whose music she would buy. So - it's all subjective. I for one wish them all well and if none of them become superstars, that's fine.
Miranda Lambert was pretty much a hit right out of the box, Me & Charley Talking did pretty well for her. Of course she had to build to the level she is at now, but she started building immediately.
Jessica just sang at this year's National Memorial Day Concert in Washington. She was wearing a white lace dress and she sang beautifully.

A 19-year-old Lehigh University football player has been charged with kicking a man in the face during a fight outside a Bethlehem bar.
Russhon Phillips, a sophomore defensive back from Plymouth Meeting, Pa., was arrested about 12:45 a.m. Wednesday and charged with aggravated assault and related offenses.
Police say Phillips kicked 22-year-old Paul Graham in the face while Graham was on the ground.
Graham was treated for a facial fracture and other injuries. Court papers say Phillips told police he'd been drinking.
Phillips was jailed on $75,000 bail. It's not clear if he has an attorney.
Lehigh Coach Andy Coen announced Wednesday that four football players have been suspended from the team in connection with an incident the night before.

Genre: Travel
Premise: Zach Anner is a comedian with cerebral palsy who won the opportunity to host his own travel show after winning the first season of ``Your OWN Show: Oprah's Search for the Next TV Star.'' In his series, Anner travels across the U.S., trying to conquer his ``top five'' list of things to do in each city, attempting new experiences he never thought possible. Whether it's surfing, rock climbing or water skiing, the popular Internet personality challenges himself to try the unexpected and, at times, seemingly impossible, using his sharp sense of humor and a positive attitude to get through it all. As Anner says, ``the adventure is in the attitude.''

How does a satellite phone work?
Satellite phones must have "line-of-sight" to the satellites in order to operate. This means the antenna on the phone must be outdoors with nothing solid obstructing it's view to the sky. Anything solid can block the phone to satellite signal. e.g. Trees, buildings, hills or mountains, vehicles, etc.
Who owns the most satellites for phone service?
Iridium. They operate an array of 66 satellites that cover the globe, no matter where on earth you are if you have clear access to the sky you can place a call on the Iridium Network.
What is the coverage area for the Iridium satellite phones?
The Iridium satellite phones are capable of making and receiving calls anywhere in the world, including the North and South poles and the middle of the ocean. The only exceptions will be those areas embargoed or restricted by the U.S. Department of State. Currently, these areas include: Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, & Syria. India currently has laws restricting the possession of a satellite phone while in country.
Are there any long distance or roaming charges?
No. You always pay your per minute rate no matter where on earth you are. The only exception is when calling other NON-Iridium Satellite Phones where the charges can be up to $12 per minute.
Can I use the satellite phone indoors?
No. Successful use of the phone indoors will be limited without the use of a external antenna.
Can I use the satellite phone in my car?
Successful use of the phone in your car will be limited without the use of the portable auxiliary antenna that magnetically attaches to the roof of your car.
How big are the Iridium satellite phones?
How much do the Iridium satellite phones weigh?
Who manufactures the Iridium satellite phone?
Motorola manufactured the 9500 and the 9505 model phones. Most recently Iridium has taken over manufacturing of the 9505A, 9555, 9575 Extreme, and GO! model satellite phones.
Can I purchase insurance or extended warranty for the satellite phones?
We do not have have insurance, but do provide extended warranties on all units including rentals. Please contact your sales representative for more information. Toll Free: 877-258-3496
What is the approximate talk time for the batteries on the satellite phones?
Generally, the average talk time is 2-3 hours. This will vary based on battery type, battery age and phone model. We always advise carrying a spare, fully charged battery. The phones will also work without a battery, while plugged in to an appropriate electrical source.
Does the temperature affect the life of a battery?
Yes, exposure to extreme heat or extreme cold will shorten the life of a battery.
Does the weather affect my phone?
No, not at the L-band. However, the weather can affect the transmission from the satellite to the ground station.
Are the Iridium satellite phones water-resistant?
No. The phones should be kept out of the rain and not exposed to water. If you'll be in inclement weather we recommend the Iridium 9575 Extreme phone as the best option.
If I already have my own satellite phone, can I still get service?
Yes. BlueCosmo Communications offers service on the Iridium Satellite Series 9500, 9505, 9505A, 9555 or 9575 Extreme Satellite phones. You will just need a new SIM card provided by BlueCosmo Satellite Communications.
Can I use my old Iridium SIM card?
No. In order to obtain Iridium service, it will be necessary to purchase a new SIM card from BlueCosmo Satellite Communications.
Can I keep my old phone number?
No. Your phone number is associated with your SIM card, and since you will need to obtain a new SIM card, you will also receive a new number.
What is a phone reflash?
The phone reflash is an upgrade to the satellite phone. The reflash offers improved voice quality, decreased dropped call rates, and allows for data transmission. The satellite phone must be sent to BlueCosmo Communications main office for the reflash.
Would I need the reflash performed on my satellite phone?
If you purchased your phone prior to March 31, 2001, AND you are concerned about the voice quality, dropped call rates, or being able to send and receive data via your satellite phone, you would want the reflash.
Can I get the reflash on my Kyocera satellite phone?
No, we are unable to reflash the Kyocera satellite phones.
What is the function of the SIM card?
SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) cards are currently used in all GSM-based systems. The SIM card is a removable module that contains user identity, account information, and stores phone numbers which can be used in any compatible phone where your SIM card is present. When inserted into a telephone, it allows you to place or receive calls. Any Iridium SIM card will work in any Iridium Satellite Phone
What type of phone number will I receive?
The phone number is a 12-digit Iridium phone number assigned by BlueCosmo Communications that is specific to the Iridium network. Iridium has it's own country code of 8816 which is then followed by 8 digits. (E.g. 8816-315-12345) When placing calls to and from Iridium you must always use international dialing. (E.g. From North America dial 011-8816-315-12345)
For international rates to call an Iridium phone please contact your Long Distance Provider and ask the per minute rate to call Iridium or country code 8816. Average pricing is $7+ per minute.
There is an optional US based phone number for an additional cost on monthly billed plans. Not available on prepaid services.
Can I choose my Iridium satellite phone number?
Are calls to the Iridium satellite phone a 'local' call?
No. Calls placed to the Iridium satellite phone are considered an international phone call.
Is there an access number to reach the Iridium satellite phone?
Yes. The access number is 480-768-2500. The caller will dial the access number and at the prompt, enter the 12-digit Iridium phone number they are trying to reach. The call will then be routed to the phone. Calls placed in this manner are called "Two-Stage Dialing," and there is a charge to the Iridium subscriber for this type of incoming call.
If I buy two phones, can they share a service plan?
No. Each phone is required to have its own SIM card to operate. Each SIM card has a unique phone number, and each phone number would need to be set up on an individual service plan.
What service features are available on the Iridium phones?
Voicemail, short messaging service (SMS), call forwarding, call barring and Two-Stage dialing are all available on all BlueCosmo Communications service plans. Voicemail is available on all plans, and call forwarding, call barring, SMS and Two-Stage dialing are included on all plans.
Can I get cellular on the Iridium satellite phones?
No. At this time, Iridium is not supporting cellular service on the satellite phones.
What is short messaging service (SMS)?
The person trying to contact you on your Iridium satellite phone can send a short text message (under 160 characters) directly to your handset. There is no charge receive the SMS. Keep in mind that your handset must be on to receive the message, and the Iridium system only stores these messages for eight(8) days. There are two ways to send a SMS message:
Is Emergency 911 calling available on the Iridium network?
Yes, 911 Emergency service is available in North America only. You only need dial 911 to be connected to a central Emergency Services representative. No special prefixes or country codes are needed when dialing 911. When traveling outside North America it is advisable to have the emergency contact numbers with you.
How does the Globalstar handset work?
Globalstar customers make or receive calls using the hand-held phone or with the hands free car kit. The phones communicate via a Globalstar satellite that bounces the signal back down to the nearest earth station that interconnects to the local telephone system. The process takes roughly 10 milliseconds, delivering excellent voice clarity and no perceptible voice delay.
(Globalstar phones are no longer activated on cellular networks)
Do Globalstar's satellite phones work just like cell phones?
Globalstar satellite phones offer many of the same characteristics as cellular phones, including a similar user interface and design. One of the main differences between satellite and cell phones is that the user must put up a larger satellite antenna in order to receive satellite signals.
Globalstar features one of the smallest and lightest handsets in the satellite industry. Satellite phones are slightly larger in size than cellular phones because the antenna system required to communicate on the satellite frequencies must be larger than a cellular phone antenna.
Another fundamental difference between traditional wireless phones and Globalstar satellite phones, as with all satellite mobile handheld phones, it must be within satellite line-of-sight in order to complete calls. Therefore the mobile handset cannot be used indoors.
If satellite phone services are required indoors, Globalstar offers 3 options. The New SatFi, GSP-2900 fixed satellite phone and the FAU-200. Either can be used indoors in satellite mode as they have external remote antennas to create line of sight with the Globalstar Satellite Network.
When was Globalstar made available in North America?
Globalstar has been rolling out its services on a progressive basis since the fall of 1999.
Who has subscribed to Globalstar services?
It is estimated that 50 per cent of the world has little or no phone service. The advent of affordable satellite telephony and other wireless services will change this, since it eliminates the need for costly landline or wireless network infrastructures. In fact, industry experts anticipate that the market potential for mobile global satellite communications is between 10 and 30 million customers. Across North America, business, government, and even the general public need the ability to communicate wherever they are located or travelling. With many regions not having existing landline or cellular coverage there is distinct need for Globalstar's reliable and quality voice and data services. These users are from a variety of industries:
Also, in rural or under-served areas where landline phone service doesn't exist or is of poor quality, Globalstar can provide voice and data service (SMS and email) through its fixed terminals or GSP-1700 with a 9200 data modem.
How much do Globalstar Phones and Services cost?
Phones: Globalstar's mobile unit, the GSP-1700, has an MSRP of $499, by far the most competively priced satellite phone in the market. Fixed units range from the FAU-2000, voice only unit, to the GSP-2900 fixed satellite phone for $1,999 which includes data service as well as voice capabilities. Click here for a link to the Globalstar products page to view more features and benefits of Globalstar phones.
Airtime Rates: Globalstar offers the best-in-class satellite call rates in the US or Caribbean. Calls from anywhere in the US or Caribbean can start as low as $0.50 per minute and unlimited plans are available. Prepaid options are now available. For long distance rates, visit the long distance rate calculator for specific country rates. Globalstar USA offers service that is effectively priced for the user, while offering convenience, unmatched service quality and leading edge applications and features.
Why is Globalstar the best satellite service in the USA?
Globalstar's innovative, yet proven technology, delivers higher dependability, stronger voice clarity and lower costs than the competition:
What is Globalstar's international coverage?
Globalstar offers roaming in over 110 countries serving 90% of the world's population.
Can I modify the 40m (130') length of RG213 coax cable that comes with my AD511 Active Antenna?
No, you cannot modify the RG213 Cable supplied with the AD511 Active Antenna. Doing so will effect the power and specs to the antenna and cause failures.
Can I use higher grade coax cable to extend the run of the Iridium Active Antenna?
Yes, there are several options to extend the cable run outside of the standard 40m (130') RG213 coax cable.
How close together can I put my Iridium AD511 Active Antenna?
The minimum distance between any Iridium antenna, active or passive, is 1 meter. This is the absolute minimum and a larger distance is preferable. As in all RF applications the greater the better.
What is the added gain of the AD511 Active Iridium Antenna?
The active antenna has no system gain and is built so the radiated power is that of the standard Iridium handset. I.E. +38dB. The AD510-10 Active Antenna is not built to add gain to the system, as many people believe, but is made to place the antenna in a more suitable position. The active antenna can ONLY be used with the set length of coax feed and CANNOT be changed as this forms part of the operating specs. If the feed coax is changed it can damage the Active elements in the unit.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions regarding the different satellite networks.

I don't like licorice. Why am I drinking this tea? Why do I have this tea? (The girl at the davidstea lied to me, by the way. I asked for a quarter of an ounce and she gave me a full half.) Why do I do this to myself?
It's… not terrible, which is saying something. It smells really good, actually (although I didn't put the giant anise star in my cup. That kind of defeats the whole purpose of this tea, doesn't it? Oh well.) It tastes pretty good, too, sweet and creamy and chocolatey like chocolatey davidstea blends are wont to be. But every couple sips I get hit with the most terrible licoricey aftertaste, and I remember why I shouldn't own this tea. We'll see. Maybe it's an acquirable taste?

SANDY — Major League Soccer has a problem.
Real Salt Lake midfielder Javier Morales left Saturday's game with a fractured left ankle on a nasty foul from behind by Marcos Mondaini. The Chivas USA forward was shown a straight red card, but the damage had already been done.
The injury to Morales isn't an isolated incident either. In fact, Morales is the third notable MLS player this season to suffer a broken leg. It's quickly becoming a huge black eye on the league.
Last month, Colorado midfielder Brian Mullan snapped the leg of Seattle rising star Steve Zakuani on a nasty challenge that landed him a 10-game suspension from the league. A week later, reigning MLS MVP David Ferriera broke his ankle in two spots on a take down from behind by Vancouver defender Jonny Leathers.
Morales was the latest star to crumple.
"It's not only bad for us, it's bad for the league that he's not going to be play. My heart goes out to him," said RSL midfielder Kyle Beckerman.
The league is in a tough spot about what to do with Mondaini. While Mullen was suspended for 10 games, Leathers wasn't suspended at all.
Where does Mondaini's challenge fall in that scale?
"I don't think he went in there meaning to break Javy's ankle, he did mean to foul him. Obviously this is something the league is going to have to look at and decide what they want to do," said RSL defender Nat Borchers. "It's not really for me to say. I do think the league is going to have to crack down on these things, and I do think they've done a good job so far."
RSL coach Jason Kreis said he didn't think it was an egregious tackle by Mondaini.
Chivas coach Robin Fraser agreed.
"It was a clumsy challenge — it certainly wasn't malicious," said Fraser. "We were saying on the sideline we think that might be Marcos' first foul all year, he's just not even that type of player. It was probably more like a forward being stuck in the midfield having to make tackles and it was a clumsy challenge."
In fairness, it wasn't Mondaini's first foul. He came into the game having committed eight fouls and picking up one yellow card in seven starts.
Regardless of the suspension, Real Salt Lake will have a tough time coping without its best player for what could be the entire 2011 season.5 comments on this story
"There's not much you can say. Nothing is going to put his leg back together. He's done so much for this team. He's been the heart and soul for three or four years. He's been the best player in this league, and I'm just going to miss having him at training every day and getting to watch him do things that most people can only dream about doing," said midfielder Will Johnson.
X-rays revealed that Morales fractured his left tibia and fibula, dislocated his ankle and suffered torn ligaments as well. He'll have surgery at the Salt Lake Regional Medical Center on Monday.
Beckerman is confident the league will punish Mondaini appropriately.
"I think the league has been handling it good, they've been on top of it. Before the season started guys knew bad tackles weren't going to be accepted, so I'm sure they'll come down hard on this guy," Beckerman concluded.

Have you heard about California's Proposition 37 which would require the labeling of all genetically modified foods? What do you think about it? It's at tricky one right?
I'm not in California and manyof you aren't either. I therefore don't want to go down the road of debating the actual proposition. What I would like to do is talk about one part of it and find out what you think.Part of Proposition 37 seeks to regulate the use of the word natural. Let's talk about the meaning of the word natural.
How many times do you stop to read the packaging info on a product and wonder about the meaning of the word natural? Or do you even wonder about it? When you see natural do you assume that the food is healthy and stop reading?
Not me. In fact, I ignore the word natural. It's pretty much meaningless as far as I can tell.
Take natural flavors for instance. What are natural flavors? It turns out the definition is pretty complex and reading it does not clarify things for me. Here's the definition from the Food and Drug Administration Department of Health and Human Services:
The term natural flavor or natural flavoring means the essential oil, oleoresin, essence or extractive, protein hydrolysate, distillate, or any product of roasting, heating or enzymolysis, which contains the flavoring constituents derived from a spice, fruit or fruit juice, vegetable or vegetable juice, edible yeast, herb, bark, bud, root, leaf or similar plant material, meat, seafood, poultry, eggs, dairy products, or fermentation products thereof, whose significant function in food is flavoring rather than nutritional.
(I'm not even going to look up the definition of Natural Color!)
We also see wholesome-seeming companies like Kashi coming under fire for their use of the word natural because some of their products contain genetically engineered soy. The kind of round-up ready crop we're talking about here (not to mention the herbicide resistant super-weeds that are unintentionally created and seem to require the use of more and more lethal amounts and types of herbicides to control) scares the crap out of me. Natural is definitely not the word I would use to describe this ingredient.
I think you probably agree with me that neither of the above cases are intuitively natural. But how do we go about defining the word? As Anastasia Killian points out in Forbes, many would agree that roasted almonds are natural. Members of the raw food movement? Not so much.
I think it would be pretty hard to come up with a definition that we all agree on. But let's try.
Today, let's set aside all the complicated issues that Prop 37 brings up. Let's ignore the fact that companies like Nestle and Coca Cola must label products as genetically engineered in China and the UK and many other countries but are not required to do so here in the US. Let's brush off the crap that's been scared out of us by terms like Round-Up ready, Super Weed and 2,4-D. And, let's pretend that California is not facing a decision that will have implications for GMO labeling in the whole country.Instead, let's focus on this one thing: the meaning of the word natural. What do you think natural means? Do you ignore the word natural when you see it? Do you think the use of the word natural should be regulated? If so, do you think we can come up with an agreed upon definition for such a subjective term?

Eventually, at least one of two things would surely happen. Kobe Bryant, off to a stunningly slow start, would get on the usual roll or the Rockets would crank up the league's most prolific offense.
Bryant is about as much of a sure thing as the NBA has, got it going, though not to the full Bryant, mind-blowing, unstoppable standard. But once the Rockets offense began to roll, it didn't matter.
The Rockets extended their winning streak to five games with wins in 10 of 12 games, rolling past the short-handed Lakers in the second half, 125-112, Tuesday at Toyota Center.
James Harden made 1 of his first 6 shots and then rolled the rest of the way, making 10 of 13 to score 31 points with nine assists, giving him 13-consecutive games scoring at least 25 points to tie Moses Malone's franchise record. Jeremy Lin scored 13 of his 19 points in the second half, adding six rebounds, five assists and four steal. Chandler Parsons added 20 points, while leading the defense on Bryant.
Bryant finished with 20 points, 10 shy of his league-leading averaging, making just 8 of 22 shots. With the Lakers playing without Pau Gasol, Dwight Howard and Jordan Hill, Metta World Peace started at power forward and led the Lakers with 24 points.
With the win, the Rockets have a third-consecutive comeback from a double-digit deficit and their seventh this season, one more than in all of last season. The formula on the road – fall into a double-digit hole and then mount a comeback – was not intentional, but the Rockets started the game as if it were.
With the Lakers playing with short-handed energy the Rockets did not match, Los Angeles rushed to an 18-4 lead as Rockets coach Kevin McHale tried time out and substitutions to get things going.
Harden, who made just 3 of 19 shots in the previous game against his hometown team, made 1 of his first 6. The Rockets opened the game making 3 of 10 shots with three turnovers.
The Rockets, however, began to turn thing around by doing what actually was the plan going into the game. They attacked the paint, left open without Howard and Gasol inside. After scoring just two points inside in the first six minutes, the Rockets scored 28 in the paint in the remaining 18 minutes of the half, including 18 of the 31 they put up in the second quarter.
With Delfino adding a bit of 3-point shooting, the Rockets briefly went in front. They could not get the stops to end the half with a lead, even with Bryant scoring just six-first half points.
Though Metta World Peace made up for some of the void inside, starting at power forward and scoring 13 first-half points, Nash picked up the slack from the injuries and from Bryant taking just seven first-half shots.
Nash marked the occasion of his reaching the 10,000 assist mark by making 6 of 7 shots in the first half, scoring 14 points with five assists and without a turnover. With the Rockets put up little resistance, the Lakers moved the ball well enough to make 52.1 percent of their first-half shots, and 54.5 percent of their 3s.
Most of the Lakers early cushion was gone, but they still took a 62-59 lead into the second half. With that, the Rockets usual offense showed up, Bryant stepped up and the Rockets tried to make their third-quarter dash to a 12-point lead hold up.
That turned out to be no problem, with the Rockets scoring all the way to the final minute to lead by as much as 16 and keep the streak going.

Today, From the Pressbox:
We look at a couple of teams in the Western Conference and try to figure out their next moves and review some recent deals there, too. Then we examine the play of the Toronto Maple Leafs in January 2014.
Edmonton/Nashville Goalie trades
This is a team that boasts a series of recent first round (even multiple first overall draft picks). Last week they made a trade to reconfigure their goaltending. Ben Scrivens was acquired in exchange for a third round pick from Los Angeles. That trade came on the heels of a prior exchange where the Oilers shipped out Devan Dubnyk in favor of rugged winger Matt Hendricks.
Let's look at that second deal first. Last season Dubnyk put together his third straight season with a declining goals against average, with all three seasons well below the three goal per game mark, a standard that is regarded with a strong indication of quality performance. He was seemingly well established as the top goalie on the Oilers roster and figured to benefit from a maturing and talented roster. However, as this season has turned into a terrible downer for the whole team, it seems that Dubnyk has taken the fall, owing to his subpar numbers posted in 32 appearances (3.36 gaa and .894 save pct.).
He's still only 27 years old and now is clearly in a backup role with Nashville as long as Pekka Rinne is on the job in Nashville. Rinne is out long-term with a hip injury and only now has begun any weight-bearing exercises. So the skinny on Dubnyk is that he should get the bulk of the work in goal for the Preds over the schedule up to the Olympic break, with a team that is significantly better than the Oilers. Long-term, this could turn out extremely well or extremely poorly for Dubnyk. That path will be determined by Rinne's recovery.
On the flip side, Edmonton appears to be banking on the fine numbers that Scrivens had compiled with the Kings (2.09 gaa and .928 save pct.). There is little doubt that Edmonton coach Dallas Eakins' familiarity with Scrivens' history, while they were together in Toronto, was a factor in this decision.
Scrivens has never been a number one goalie in the NHL and apparently will share the net with Ilya Bryzgalov (3.25 gaa, .904 save pct., in 15 appearances). Bryzgalov's numbers are only marginally better than what Dubnyk was playing to, with the Oilers. That merely underscores the fact that the Oilers, while rich in offensive potential, have a ton of work to do in an effort to upgrade their defensive record. Until they address that issue, upgrading their defensive depth and committing to a two-way system, the Oilers will continue to be a non-playoff team.
To that end, they may have to consider trades that will accelerate the path to a more balanced lineup. Also, some cap flexibility will be afforded Edmonton management with the expiry of contracts to Ryan Smyth, Ales Hemsky, Ryan Jones and Nick Shultz, totaling $12.25 M that could be better spent this offseason.
In terms of trade chips, they won't be dealing their first-round draft choice because it could be the top overall selection. They are undoubtedly looking at the possibility of dealing away center Sam Gagner, who is a notch below blue-chippers Taylor Hall, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Jordan Eberle. A more difficult decision could involve a potential deal for Nail Yakupov, who has tons of talent, but has really struggled as a sophomore pro (17 points and a -31 rating). How bad would it look if he realized his potential elsewhere?
Wings in danger and uncharted territory
The Detroit Red Wings have not missed the Stanley Cup playoffs since the 1989-1990 season. Heading unto action this week they find themselves in a battle with no fewer than five teams for the final wild card spot. To make matters worse this has been a season marred by injuries to stalwarts like Henrik Zetterberg, Pavel Datsyuk, Johan Franzen and most recently they found out that they would be without the services of number one goalie Jimmy Howard, for the second time this season. He is expected to miss a couple of weeks with a knee injury.
Offensive depth and experience on the blueline have been hallmarks in Motown but this year's edition just doesn't have those qualities as a transition and commitment to younger players is underway this season.
Apart from the above-noted players, only Daniel Alfredsson and Nicklas Kronwall have even topped the 20-point mark.
Among the younger players, Tomas Tatar has been the most prolific contributor with 10 goals and nine assists. He is yet another product of the quality European Scouting pipeline that has been a staple for the Red Wings for many years. Joakim Andersson is another talented Euro import who has cracked the roster in a bigger way (13 points) than his first two years as a pro. He has been pushed into a second line role largely due to the injuries and ineffective play of Stephen Weiss. Weiss' woes and a cap hit of $4.9M for the next four years looks like a big miss at this stage. That is uncharted territory for Detroit's current management team. Justin Abdelkader (16 points) and Gustav Nyquist (12 points) are two other forwards who are pushing for top six minutes.
This team has been written off a few times (in the last two playoff years mostly) but this may be the year that they fall short of the post-season. It just looks like they don't match up with competing clubs.
While this may not be their year, it might be wise to keep an eye on the development of some of the younger Wings we have noted. They may see a lot of ice time the rest of this season.
Maple Leafs fall�then rise�Which way will they wind up?
After defeating the Wings at the Winter Classic Game, the Maple Leafs proceeded to lose their next four games by a cumulative score of 21-7. These games were marked by some very lackluster efforts, which led to many questions and trade rumors.
Should they fire coach Randy Carlyle?
Was it time to give up on 23-year old center Nazem Kadri?
Should the club deal one of their two young defensemen, Morgan Reilly or Jake Gardiner?
None of these moves have been necessitated as the Leafs' fortunes have done a complete turn for the better in recent games. After Tuesday night's 5-2 win in Colorado, they have now won six straight games and have created some space in their pursuit of a playoff spot.
There is plenty to like about this team right now. Their top line is tearing up the league as Tyler Bozak continues to fit in as the productive first line center, between prolific wingers Phil Kessel and James van Riemsdyk. In this current streak, Jonathan Bernier seems to have grabbed the top goalie role here. He is quickly moving up among the top winners and has solid stats (2.58 gaa, .927 save pct.) and was possibly overlooked in many pools because of an expected battle with James Reimer for playing time there.
The young defense had been maligned for a lack of goal scoring, but Jake Gardiner and Cody Franson are firing on all cylinders of late and 18-year old Morgan Reilly is showing more flashes of his abundant skills. Another key development is toughness and solid defensive zone play of Tim Gleason.
The Leafs are starting to look like a team that is primed for a second straight playoff berth. They also hope that Dave Bolland and David Clarkson will bounce back from injury and that these roster additions that will further strengthen the overall depth of this roster. If they can get totally healthy, Toronto will be a difficult opponent for any team in the East.
There is a lesson here for poolies. Sometimes patience is a virtue. Having the faith in your team and not succumbing to the pressure of poor performance in a stretch where things are not looking good is a challenge for some. It could lead some fantasy owners to make panic trades. In those circumstances, it is hard to get good value in trades. In your fantasy leagues, do not give the perception of being anxious to make trades, when your team is struggling.

even if it is not nearly the thing you guys want to achieve, i have a request wich also referes to this theme and wich could be implemented as well, if a python crack is changing something in the behaviour of scrolling, so there it hasn't to be looked up twice.
when in a two or three rowed horizontal panel (say its id is 55) you can define <onup> and <ondown> both with 55 but instead of going to the next item in the next column it will go to the first item in the actual column if you are on the last item of a column... so i would request the behaviour should be: "nextitem" no matter where the focused item was before.
and in addition (referring to this thread): why not simply make it possible to define "nextpage" and "previouspage" as the action for <onup> <onleft> <onright> <ondown> to solve your problems?
i don't want to hijack the thread, but i think it referes to scrolling behaviour as well...
- pecinko - 2011-07-23
An alternative would be ability to define focusposition and movement for panel container, like in fixedlist.
EDIT. I forgot Jeroen already proposed this alternative.

Selected as Party of the Day on December 19th!
Teddy Bears Picnic
Party Recap
My daughter is a huge fan of her teddies so the theme for her 6th birthday party was easy - Teddy Bears Picnic.
The children snacked on honey sandwiches and fruit, a pink swirly lollipop and 'Spring Water' housed in personalized white gable boxes tied with pink gingham ribbon and displayed on a piece of artificial lawn with a gingham cloth atop.
Sweet treats on the dessert table included: 'beary yummy' vanilla cupcakes with vanilla buttercream decorated with edible images to match the invitations and other printables, honey mousse, trifle, raspberry jelly, sugar cookies, mini chocolate bars and candy. Treats were displayed on a table with pink gingham and grass mats, with a complementary gingham and polka dot background. Rosettes hung in the background, but the wind played havoc with these – they had a mind of their own!
I wanted to design a fun and whimsical sweet picnic cake. The picnic featured a topsy turvy honey pot, watermelon, a gooey pink cake, cupcake, cookies, scones and a fluffy cuddly bear enjoying the sweet treats.
Party favors:
· 'You'd better go in disguise' - Bear ears with pink bows displayed in a small vintage suitcase
· Teddy Bear sunflowers in plantable biodegradable pot with a message reading:
A little seed
For me to sow,
A little earth to make it grow.
A little hole,
A little pat,
A little wish and that is that.
A little sun,
A little shower,
A little while
And then a flower.
· 'Beary yummy treats in a favour gable candy box including mini teddy cookies and honey bear candy.
· Watercolour painting of images used in the printables
· Teddy Bear Treasure hunt
· Teddy Bear musical statues
· Face painting
· Pin the Bee on the Bear
· Teddy songs played all afternoon

Kai Ryssdal: The Indian government has marriage on its mind. Not in any romantic sense, mind you.
It's trying to stop a growing problem: Families pairing their daughters off with Indian men who live abroad. These are often financial transactions, with fraud on the side.
Raymond Thibodeaux reports now from New Delhi.
Geet from Indian soap opera "Geet Hui Sabse Parayi" speaking
Raymond Thibodeaux: This popular Indian soap opera is about a young girl called Geet. She's excited to be marrying a young, successful Indian living in Canada. As is often the case in India, this is an arranged marriage. Indian families are usually keen to marry off their daughters to Indians living overseas, who are seen as having better prospects. But all does not go well.
After a lavish wedding and honeymoon, the groom abandons his bride. Thousands of brides like Geet every year are duped into marriage by unscrupulous grooms who swoop in from abroad.
Balwant Ramoowalia: They marry the girls, openly demanding a heavy amount of cash, dowry, gold and lavish spending on the marriage arrangements by the father of the bride. But afterwards, they abandon the girl.
Balwant Ramoowalia is a former government minister who's championed the cause of abandoned brides. He says although India banned dowries 50 years ago, they're still expected. And as India's grown wealthier, the gifts have grown more lavish. These rich pickings are attracting dishonest suitors, who often use matrimonial websites.
Ramoowalia: The phenomenon has become so rampant that it's equivalent to organized crime. There's no law to catch these guys.
No law that reaches across international borders, that is. Ramoowalia says in India the courts often order runaway grooms to pay alimony or face prison. But once the men leave the country, their abandoned brides have few legal options.
Karan Singh: Because the other party is overseas, it's very difficult to get the other party to comply with any court orders.
Karan Singh is director of social services at India's Ministry of Overseas Indian Affairs. As part of its "brides beware" campaign, the ministry is calling on families to do thorough background checks. Easier said than done, if the groom lives overseas.
Bhavna Paliwal is a private eye for the Tejas Detective Agency in New Delhi.
Bhavna Paliwal: We have to get in touch with private detectives where the groom lives to verify his job status, salary, property assets and whether he's already married. That gets expensive and many families can't afford it.
Closing music from "Geet Hui Sabse Parayi"
Like Geet in the soap opera, abandoned brides in India are often stigmatized. They lose face. They can't divorce without the consent of the fugitive groom, so they're stuck in a marital limbo during what should be the happiest years of their lives.
In New Delhi, I'm Raymond Thibodeaux for Marketplace.

WASHINGTON -- Senators' financial disclosure reports showed anew Monday how wealthy most of them are, with quirky nuggets like a $1,059.75 Taurus and the gift of a sled dog buried amid trust funds, blind trusts and real estate holdings.
Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., who reported from $8 million to $40 million in family trust funds, listed up to $2,500 in rental income for a single parking space in Boston.
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., said his three sons' holdings included small interests in Krispy Kreme Doughnuts and Wendy's International Inc. Those companies' fast-food products seem counterintuitive for the senator, a heart surgeon and avid jogger.
The 2003 forms, as always, present data in broad ranges of dollars. They go beyond senators' salaries, which are $154,700. Three leaders -- Frist, Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, D-S.D., and Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, the Senate's president pro tempore -- were paid $171,900.
Once again, the filings show that riches know no political boundary and that the Senate's millionaires are not limited to those from families of renowned wealth.
Yes, there is Kennedy. And Sen. John D. Rockefeller, D-W.Va., reported three blind trusts exceeding $80 million in value.
But there are also the lesser known millionaires like Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala. Shelby, chairman of the Senate Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee, has assets including an apartment complex in Tuscaloosa, Ala., he valued at $5 million to $25 million.
Similarly, Sen. Jon Corzine of New Jersey, who chairs the Senate Democrats' campaign committee, reported holdings including $25 million to $50 million in stock in The Goldman Sachs Group plus a tax-free fund worth another $25 million to $50 million. Corzine is former chairman of Goldman Sachs & Co., the investment bank.
Stevens, chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, listed Alaska real estate worth up to $1.5 million, though he reported losing $43,000 on his home-state land investments. His financial dealings were examined by The Los Angeles Times, which reported his wealth had grown from investments with people whom he helped with legislation.
Stevens was given a sled dog for his public service by an Alaska sport fishing group. He then bought the dog's twin for $250.
Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Richard Lugar, R-Ind., said he had a 1993 Ford Taurus worth $1,059.75. His assets included his $766,000 home in northern Virginia.
Of the Senate's two party leaders, Frist is easily more financially comfortable than Daschle.
Frist, whose family started what is now HCA Inc., the country's biggest chain of for-profit hospitals, listed assets including one blind trust of $5 million to $25 million, and two others worth $1 million to $5 million. His wife and sons each reported blind trusts exceeding $1 million.
In a blind trust, a trustee manages the assets and informs the owner of its total value and income, but not details of transactions. It is set up to avoid a conflict of interest.
Daschle reported 17 mutual funds and other investments, with two worth from $50,000 to $100,000.
He said he also earned $583,250 in royalties from his book on his brief period as majority leader, "Like No Other Time: The 107th Congress and the Two Years that Changed America Forever." He said he gave to charity the $449,021 that remained after taxes and expenses.
Other Senate authors included Sen. Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., who got a $40,000 advance from W.W. Norton publishers for the book he plans to publish this election year, "Losing America: Confronting a Reckless and Arrogant Presidency."
Sen. Trent Lott, R-Miss., reported a $53,000 advance for his memoirs. In 2002, he relinquished his majority leader post after commending Sen. Strom Thurmond's segregationist 1948 presidential campaign.
Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., gave to charity the $159,139 he earned from his book, "Worth Fighting For." And retiring Sen. Zell Miller, D-Ga., who has often clashed with his own party, reported $175,000 in royalties from "A National Party No More: The Conscience of a Conservative Democrat."
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., reported earning $2.3 million in royalties for "Living History," her memoirs. She and her husband, former President Clinton, reported assets valued from $2 million to more than $10 million.
The presumptive Democratic presidential candidate, Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., listed $89,000 in royalties for "A Call to Service."
Kerry, who released his forms in May, listed four trusts worth up to $2.1 million. His wife, Heinz food heiress Teresa Heinz Kerry, has a fortune estimated beyond $500 million.
The forms also showed that in 2003:
--Senate Finance Committee Chairman Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, earned $45,000 from his farm last year.
--Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, made $33,000 in royalties from his patriotic and religious songs.
--Retiring Sen. Bob Graham, D-Fla., a defeated presidential contender, listed $5 million to $25 million in interests in The Graham Cos., a Miami real estate and development company.

Where Can I find a link to the poster The Man Is not Bought?
A Look at Slavery through Posters and Broadsides
Students will examine posters and broadsides from the 1800s to examine attitudes about slavery in the United States at that time.
- Overhead or copies for all students of the poster packet (PDF)
- Poster Inquiry Sheet for each student (PDF)
- Chart paper
Essential Question
How can the posters and broadsides of the 1800s help us to understand various attitudes towards slavery in the United States prior to the Civil War?
During the 1800s, people used public notices such as posters and broadsides to advertise slave sales, rewards for missing slaves, anti-slavery meetings, and anti-slavery fairs. The authors of these notices had different points of view. They used the notices to attract the attention of like-minded people. These posters were written in the language of the time, often using different words, phrases, and spelling than what is used today. Many of these notices were public announcements, so they included dates and places.
- Students will read posters and broadsides and identify the audience and the message.
- Students will explain whether these posters or broadsides would have influenced them to support the point of view of the poster or broadside.
- Explain that broadsides or posters were used in the 1800s to inform people about events that took place at the time.
- Ask how people are informed about important events today.
Lesson Activites
Full Class Discussion
- Introduce the students to the anti-slavery poster The Man is Not Bought (c. 1854). In this poster, Boston citizens offer to buy a fugitive slave from a kidnapper. Explain to the class that free blacks as well as escaped slaves could be kidnapped off the streets and sold into slavery. Discuss the author's point of view in this poster.
- Introduce the students to the rest of the posters, reading them along with the students and pointing out important information.
- Ask the students who they think the intended readers were for each poster and what course of action they were suggesting.
- Inform the students that they will be working in groups to analyze the posters.
Group Work
- Divide the students into groups.
- Reinforce classroom procedures for group work.
- Explain that each group will function as the staff of a newspaper and that each group member will have a job:
Editor-in-Chief: Leads the group to make sure that all participate in the discussion.
News Editor: Looks for facts: location and date.
Op-Ed Editor: Looks for opinions: who the writer and audience were and what the message is.
Copy Editor: Decides what information will be recorded on the Poster Inquiry Sheet.
- Each member of the group will be given a copy of the same broadside or poster and a Poster Inquiry Sheet to fill out.
- The students will be directed to look for specific pieces of information, which will be recorded on the response sheet.
- Groups will meet to analyze the poster and fill in the Poster Inquiry Sheet.
Report Back/Share
- Once the Poster Inquiry Sheets have been completed, each group of students will report to the whole class and describe what they learned from the group's poster.
- Ask: What were some of the attitudes about slavery expressed in these posters? Record student responses onto chart paper.
Individual Assignment/Homework
Each student will write a news story about his or her poster based on the information recorded on the Poster Inquiry Sheet. The teacher can model how to write the story using one of the Poster Inquiry Sheets.

2 reviews for Wireless CD Quality Door Chime
The chime/doorbell work perfectly. I had one that I bought in 1996, but the button gave out – it would not stay together and still work. I was told that the new button would not work with my old chime so imagine my surprise when I was testing the new chime, my old chime also chimed! My wife decided that the old chime sounded richer and deeper than the new one. I put the new chime in storage until my old chime gives out. Excellent quick delivery and it was easy to get to talk to someone on the phone when I first asked about a replacement for my old button. They were courteous, friendly and as helpful as they could be for the problem. I would recommend 1800DOORBELL to anyone.
Very happy with my doorbell and love the choice of ring tones

It won't work:
NYT: National gay rights advocates plan to join other civil rights leaders on Tuesday in calling on Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg to end the Police Department's current stop-and-frisk policy, which they argue constitutes harassment of young black and Latino men.
Back in March, the National Organization for Marriage released court filings that admitted it intended to "find, equip, energize and connect African American spokespeople for marriage... and to provoke the gay marriage base into responding by denouncing these spokesmen and women as bigots."
But the NAACP board voted to endorse same-sex marriage two weeks ago. And now the gays are holding their press conference—from the Stonewall Inn—to denounce New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's racist stop-and-frisk practices that ensnare hundreds of thousands of black and Latino men each year.
Nothing like a wedge to bring people together, eh?

Trail-Ride On A Complimentary Bicycle - Kirkland Hotel Deals
Cross Kirkland Corridor Trail
108th Avenue NE to Slater Avenue NE
As a guest at The Heathman Hotel, you're welcome to enjoy a complimentary bicycle to explore the Eastside throughout your stay. One of our most popular Kirkland hotel deals, our fleet of Swobo "Dixon" bikes offer the perfect mix of versatility and style, equally suited for cruising the streets or hitting the trail. Speaking of trails, the Cross Kirkland Corridor (CKC) recently opened, connecting 8 of the city's 13 neighborhoods, from Totem Lake in the north to the South Kirkland Park-and-Ride.
Kirkland's Newest, Most Expansive Bike Trail
The Cross Kirkland Corridor has forever changed cycling on Lake Washington's Eastside. For the first time ever, there's a designated walking, running, and bike path to navigate our hilly waterfront city. At 6.3 miles, the surprisingly level trail is made up of compacted, hard-pack gravel, making it friendly for cyclists of all skill levels. Designed with the past and future in mind, it's built upon the 42-mile Eastside Rail Corridor, and is the first step in uniting communities on our side of the lake with a safe, quiet path for recreationists. While most of the rail ties have been removed, the route's previous incarnation is still quite tangible.
A Gateway to Tomorrow
Not only is the CKC a wonderful new throughway for sightseeing, it's also a fundamental part of Kirkland's future. Formerly an abandoned railway, businesses now see promise in developing along its scenic edges, including the ever-expanding presence of Google. For a taste of what's to come, be sure to cool off with a beer on the trail-facing outdoor deck at Chainline Brewing Company (503 6th St S), less than a mile from our hotel.

Mandrake 9.0 Screen Flashing
Hi, I have recently installed Mandrake 9.0. Everything is fine except for the fact that the screen flashes when I enter X. It will flash steadily then stop for a few minutes and start again. I then took it off and installed RehHat 8.0 and it worked fine. I went back to Mandrake and the same problem occured. I assume that Mandrake is setting up my video card wrong.
Dell Optiplex GXa PII 266
128Meg of Ram
ATI 3D Rage Pro (on board)(2Meg of ram I think)
1 more thing, when I goto the Display config it shows up as a Mach 64 Ultra. Thats what it finds, I change it to 3D Rage Pro with no difference.
Your help is appreciated.
EDIT: Just thought I would add, I did a searchof the forum and found others are having similar problems, although none of the solutions helped me. I might just go back to RedHat, it worked. I would like to use Mandrake as I am told it is the friendliest for n00bs like me :)
Personally, I'd stick with Redhat but that's another forum :-)
Try to find out if the XFree version is the same or different as the one on your Redhat. You want to try to eliminate the causes. Of course, if the versions are the same then there must be something else operating system-wise (kernel, frame buffers etc...).
When at all possible its good to use xf86config from the command line to make your X config file. Sometimes even when it appears that the install druid did everything right there can still be problems.
Good Luck.

Smooth! Exelent!
I have tried Nikka black, white and coffee grain besides this one. I must say, I think maybe is the best. So smooth, like velvet.
I absolutely love this whisky. Its so light on the pallet, crisp and fruity. I find its better with ice as it brings out the flavours more. I cannot recommend it enough for a blended whisky its so good.
A very fruity whisky, with vanilla overtones. Very easy drinking and enjoyable

Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor, head of the Catholic Conference of Bishops in England and Wales has invited Pope Benedict XVI to visit Britain; an act which recalls the historic 1982 visit of his predecessor, Pope John Paul II.
A statement, released this week from the office of the Archbishop of Westminster said that Cardinal O'Connor wanted the Pope to "be aware of how delighted the British people would be, should he feel able to accept" the invitation.
The statement was quick to add however, that it was too early to know whether the Holy Father's schedule would permit, or what a visit might consist of.
Watchers have observed that the invitation comes at a time when the relationship between the Catholic Church and the Anglicans--or Church of England--is particularly uncertain.
The Anglican church is currently facing massive debates over the ordination of female bishops as well as the communion's view on homosexuality.
During his own visit, John Paul II was the first Pope ever to visit the Cathedral of Canterbury, which is the center of the Anglican church. His visit was said to greatly further relations between the two churches.

High School Hustle: A plea for Regents relief
Can they please go back to school already?
Once again this morning, I woke up to a sprawl of sleeping teenagers in my home, their books, music and snowboarding equipment scattered about. They had no school today, due to a "citywide chancellor's conference day for teachers and staff,'' whatever that means.
They had no school last week either. And yet, in the weeks leading up to Regents week, they were buried in finals, while the seniors were simultaneously overwhelmed with essays and college application deadlines.
Not that my gang -- a senior and sophomore -- complained. They were thrilled to have the time off, even if I can't help wondering how once again, how I was caught unprepared for this onslaught of unstructured time.
Two years ago, I remember being shocked when I learned that my high-schooler would have no school during Regents Week, which just concluded. Many high schools cancel all classes and turn their attention to providing a second chance for any student who didn't pass the exams last spring.
At the time, I could not believe there would be no school at all during a full week in January, just weeks after coming back from Christmas break. It was too soon after Christmas to make vacation plans, too cold and dark out to arrange athletic events, and too late to plan any community service or other activities. (I admit, I'm not a huge fan of downtime for teenagers, even if they love it).
Some schools do manage to hold classes during Regents Week. Classes, I learned last time around, can be canceled only when so many students are taking the exams it becomes impossible to carry on a regular instruction schedule.
I'm curious how parents of high schools that essentially shut down coped with this extra week off and how they feel about it.
Given budget, staffing and space constraints in New York City's public high schools, does anyone have any idea how Regents Week might be handled better that could be shared with the state education department?
Did any city high schools come up with creative solutions? I'm open to ideas and I'm already planning for next year.

Evelyn Waugh and the actress Tallulah Bankhead were among those delighted to be lavishly entertained at Ashcombe House by the photographer Sir Cecil Beaton in the Thirties. These days, house guests apparently demand more luxurious accommodation.
Guy Ritchie, the film director, who owns the 1,200-acre Wiltshire estate, has applied for planning permission and listed building consent to make a series of improvements to the guest lodgings, including dormer windows and roof lights "because the bathrooms have no natural light".
Madonna's former husband says "the estate continues, as it did under Cecil Beaton, to entertain the artistic world".
Ritchie, whose girlfriend, the model Jacqui Ainsley, is expecting their second child, says: "The glories of Ashcombe, its setting and the long views are completely lost to the bedrooms and their guests. The aim is to allow guests the benefit of Ashcombe through a modest and appropriate detail."
Wiltshire council is expected to make its decision on the applications later this year.
Lady is directed to the altar
Andrew Legge cast Lady Serena Brabazon as the leading character in his short film The Chronoscope after being impressed by her acting skills. By the end of the shoot, it was clear that the director saw a longer-term role for the daughter of the Earl of Meath.
"We are engaged," says Lady Serena, who starred in the film Albert Nobbs opposite Glenn Close. "I'm thrilled. We hope that the wedding will be held at my parents' house in April next year." Killruddery House, in Co Wicklow, Ireland, has a wedding licence.
When Lady Serena, 33, and Andrew, 36, the son of the eminent radiologist Dr David Legge, are not filming, they act as "guerrilla gardeners", trying to cheer up housing estates left derelict by the economic crisis in Ireland.
