If it's just money, I would keep and spend it. If it was with a wallet, I would turn it in to the police to return it.

I'm skint, so yeah ... I'd probably take the money. I mean, I found a random £10 in the street once, which was fun.
If it was in a wallet ... I'd probably take the money and put the wallet back where I found it. Haha! Yeah, I'm a total model citizen. I'm sorry, but in this day and age if you lose something if you get it back then you consider yourself lucky; if you lose your wallet in the street the only thing you can count on is getting the bank to cancel your cards. People around here get stuck-up with switchblades for iPhones and S4's, god-help if they find your wallet on the floor or a bus. :/

I say if there is identification to who the owner is, then yeah, return it.....you never know......it could be mafia or gang money
If there is no identification, finder keepers, but you never know if the money could be traced or could be marked by government agencies.
If I find it buried outside my house hiding after many years, then hell yeah, I am taking it. Not telling the world because the government will tax it like it did with a family in California that found gold in their back yard. Screw the system!!!
But depending on the amount, off shore accounts (Swiss bank account baby!!!!), here I come. Hell, if I found buried treasure in international waters, carribean accounts or accounts in Hong Kong, Macau, Abu Dhabi, and Sydney is where I am hiding those babies. Of course, I can buy an island that Greece is selling with that money and hide it there.

Goodbye college loans.
Money IS money, and even a little can help you get by. I completely understand why people would take money out of the wallets if they found it, where I do think it is a bad thing to do, it is completely understandable.
I've always tried living by this saying I was told when I was younger. 'Treat people how you would wish to be treated'.
If I dropped a wallet, I would hope someone would return it to me with everything inside, hence I do the same. Following that saying doesn't exactly get you anywhere better with life, I feel it just makes me a better person. (not trying to say people who don't live like that aren't good people)

pay for my college tuition…
If it would be from a wallet and has a huge sum of my currency inside, I'd probably just take it. Since if you're carrying such a sum and still go arround so carelessly that you can lose it, you kinda diserve to :/.
People are struggling to get by all over the world and if that guy/woman walks arround carelessly as if it's pocket money than those bills are better of in my wallet of secureness.
As for what to do with the money, I'd save it up somewhere safe in case I'd need it one day. (That is after buying some things I've always wanted, but not really going overboard with it).
He's just a dandy guy, in space.
Unfortunately, don't expect that sort of kindness from people these days. It's sad people aren't nicer to each other. If only that saying of yours got through to others.
Oh, Hi-deeki, imagine... your kind not eating raw fish! ^_^
i'd make an attempt to return the money to its owner, because that's what i'd want done for me. i try to live by a code, which is Treat others as you'd like to be treated.
i think anyone that just takes the money is supremely selfish. if you lost your wallet, only for it to be returned to you sans all cash inside, wouldn't you be fking livid? i wouldn't want that to happen to me, so i wouldn't do it to someone else.

What would you do if you found a real life anime character (not necesarilly looking like an anime character with the tiny pointy nose and huge eyes, but rather just the real life person who was an anime character that some how became real)? For example what if you met Hero Yui and he could prove it was him, because he really had a cool big-a$$ mech called Wing Gundam to pilot.

I'd turn in part of it and hide the rest. If it turned out to be neither countefeit nor tracable by police, I would keep the rest. And hopefully get what I turned in back.
Anime is a lot like sex. Done right it's a beautiful act of creation that brings a little more light into the world. If it's sick and wrong... it's even better.

Kourtney Kardashian Celebrates Baby Shower Ahead of Televised Wedding
Kourtney Kardashian celebrated her second wedding shower on May 12 in Beverly Hills just two weeks after she and boyfriend Scott Disick reportedly signed a $1 million deal with the E! network to film their wedding nuptials in Mexico.
Kardashian, who is expecting the couple's second child, had roughly 100 guests at the lavish event which was hosted by her mother, Kris Jenner, according to Life & Style magazine.
"Kourtney's shower was so nice! Her mom and sisters were there, of course. They talked, laughed, and played games. There was a bar and lots of different types of foods and desserts, including sushi and little sandwiches. She seemed happy and excited earlier in the day before the shower. Her son, Mason, was there, too," a source told Life & Style.
"The theme was all pink and whites. Petals LA did the floral arrangements. Flowers were blush-pink peonies, pink Dutch hydrangeas and garden sweet peas in pink-and-fuchsia containers. Lehr & Black did Kourtney's shower invitations ... they were beautiful!" the insider added.
The 33-year-old reality TV personality is expected to give birth around July 1, after which she and Disick will proceed with their televised wedding.
"They signed a $1 million deal with E! to get married on TV," a source told In Touch Magazine.
The couple of five years are reportedly having their wedding at a private estate in Puerta Vallarta, Mexico which is owned by their good friend Joe Francis.
"Kourtney has always considered Joe's home a place where she can really relax," the insider said.
The event could mimic her sister Kim's lavish wedding with Kris Humphries, which was filmed for the E! network on August 20.
Disick was noticeably absent from Kardashian's baby shower as he was reportedly in Atlantic City, N.J., where he had to host at The Pool at Harrah's Resort that same day.

Meet Malavath Poorna, 13, youngest girl to summit Everest

The Associated Press
Published Wednesday, June 4, 2014 11:46AM EDT
Last Updated Thursday, June 5, 2014 3:40AM EDT
NEW DELHI -- The 13-year-old daughter of poor Indian farmers who became the youngest girl to climb Mount Everest said Wednesday that she "shed joyful tears" at the summit after a gruelling climb across difficult terrain and personal fear.
Nepal requires climbers to be at least 16 years old to scale its peaks, but Malavath Poorna said she and a team of Nepalese guides climbed the 8,850-metre mountain on May 25 from the northern side in Tibet. There are no age restrictions in China.
"It was very difficult. Every step is a dangerous step," a smiling Poorna told reporters in New Delhi, describing steep slopes, exposed rocks, deep crevasses and extreme cold that went below minus 40 degrees Celsius.
At 3,300 metres, she said she saw "six dead bodies. I was shocked. Oh my god I got some fear."
But she remembered her training and regained her confidence.
"When I reached the top of Everest, very good experience. I feel great and proud, and I shed joyful tears" as she looked around and saw "mighty mountains and morning sunlight," she said, waving her hands expressively as she spoke.
The climb was verified by the China Tibet Mountaineering Association in Lhasa, making Malavath the youngest girl to climb Everest. American Jordan Romero, from Big Bear, Calif., became the youngest boy at age 13 to reach the summit -- also from the Tibetan side -- in 2010.
Malavath said her parents, impoverished farmers from the southern state of Andhra Pradesh, encouraged her during eight months of training despite the fact that she had never before been on a mountain. Her family are dalits, once known as "untouchables," at the bottom of India's ancient caste system.
The expedition was sponsored by the Andhra Pradesh Social Welfare Residential Educational Institution Society as part of its program to encourage and help underprivileged students in India.

El Dorado Saloon celebrated its first anniversary with plenty of bull riding and another restaurant to boot. Adjacent to the saloon, Sauce'd Pizza and Cocktail House opened its doors in June, offering a unique, yet complementary, experience to saloon patrons.
General Manager Curtis Cole said the new addition gives folks more options. "People can stay in El Dorado Hills instead of going down the hill into Folsom," he explained. "They can find an assortment of nightlife right here."
Where El Dorado Saloon is upbeat and can accommodate large groups of people, Sauce'd is more jazzy and intimate, a perfect place to wind down. Live jazz is performed at Sauce'd on Thursdays and Sundays.
Sauce'd is getting recognition for its "Mixology," or gourmet, signature mixed drinks. One of the highlighted concoctions award-winning mixologist Manny Hinjosa brings to Sauce'd is the "Smokin' Kitty," a chilled martini mixture of Grey Goose, Cointreau, agave, fresh lemon juice, strawberry and basil. To give even more credibility to its new reputation as the place for mixed drinks on the north side of town, Sauce'd has the only frosted drink rail in the region. Place a glass on the cool, silvery surface built into the bar and a drink stays perfectly chilled.
Sauce'd offers an assortment of wings, salads and specialty pizzas made in their wood burning pizza ovens. Their "Mother Earth" pizza combines olive oil, hummus, tomatoes, spinach, onions, roasted garlic, wild mushrooms, fresh basil, feta, artichokes and mozzarella.
There is also an indoor fireplace and unique water feature. The large, oak outdoor deck is shared with El Dorado Saloon.
And on Saturday, July 23, from noon to 6 p.m. that deck will welcome families with a rodeo clown, a face painter and a bounce house. Children and their parents will also be welcomed inside the saloon for free bull rides, all as a way to thank customers and to let them know that Sauce'd and the saloon are kid-friendly, family restaurants in the daytime. Breakfast is served at the saloon on weekend mornings and their children's menu is diverse.
"We aren't just a bar or a club. We are a family place, too," said Cole.
Sauce'd is the fourth restaurant owner Andrea Martin has opened in the Sacramento area, including Bulls Restaurant, The Office Lounge and, of course, the El Dorado Saloon.
Sauce'd opens daily at 3 p.m. and is located at 879 Embarcadero Drive. For more information visit saucedcocktailhouse.com.
Thursday and Sunday evenings Sauce'd Pizza and Cocktail House has live Jazz music.

911 Tasting Notes
Ah, one of the delightful teas from my Lupicia Herbal Happy Bag! I was really pleased to get this one as I had been eying it for a bit. Seems I'm becoming addicted to lemongrass, especially as my sinuses have decided to state their displeasure with winter. Stupid cold weather season. Lupicia was also the reason I discovered that not all rooibos are created equal (nasty). Green rooibos is actually my friend. So yay for herbals that include both lemongrass and rooibos!
Previous, I had had a grapefruit flavored teabag from Lupicia and I was a bit disappointed because it wasn't as obnoxious tasting as the smell and, for once, I wanted an obnoxious flavored tea. Well, this one isn't obnoxious either, but, coupled with the lemongrass (or perhaps because the base is green rooibos instead of a black tea), the grapefruit seems to really pack more of a punch. It's very citrus-y. The two flavors pair well to give this not-tea a great whooshy feeling that feels refreshing, makes my sinuses happy but still manages to be mild and smooth.
I couldn't really pick out the rooibos (which is fine since it is a fairly mild taste anyway) but I think it managed to show up a bit at the end, adding a hint of extra sweetness to the citrus whoosh-iness that kept the tea from having a sharp citrus edge. I could have dealt with the flavors being a bit more intense, but at the same time, if the flavors were stronger this tea might become a one-cup-and-done type tea. As it is, I enjoyed it so much I felt the need for an almost instant resteep.
Which, speaking of resteeping, this one handled it rather handsomely. The first steep had the grapefruit flavor being a tad stronger than the lemongrass. In the second, the lemongrass perked up to stand out a bit more. The grapefruit wasn't weak and was still noticeable but in this steep the balance was tilted ever so slightly in favor of the lemongrass. In other words – still great whooshy citrus with no unhappy or sharp edges and something I could totally get behind having more of.
Hello Steepsterites! Yes, it has been a while since I've been on. Honestly, Steepster loads so slowly for me that it just takes too long for me to get on here and play, so I haven't been. But I figured I needed to bite the bullet and do some clean up to my cupboard as well as check in with folks so I'm doing that today. Hopefully slow load times won't tick me off too much and I'll even be able to get some backlogs in.
But enough hoping about backlogs – I'm here to log a tea that's actually in my cup right now! This one was a teabag included in with my Lupicia Happy Bag that I bought. I can't help it – I love their surprise grab bags! I certainly don't need more tea, much less surprise tea, but I still buy it anyway. I'm trying to be good though, and not break open too many of the new packages of tea before I do away with some older teas. So this one, being a single teabag, is a nice burst of new that doubles as a decupboard. So win all around!
First off, the smell. Holy mother of goodness does this teabag smell apple-y. It's like a just bit into a fresh, crispy, juicy Gala or Pinata apple. I can almost feel the crunch in my teeth! As I kept smelling the teabag wrapper while my tea was brewing (everyone does this, right?) a little note of apple-flavored hard candy started to come out on the edges of the smell which took away a bit of the I-am-eating-a-fresh-apple feeling, but it still smells delicious. Post-brewing, the actual liquid tea smells almost bake-y but not quite. Maybe like an unsweetened version of a chocolate graham cracker topped with a large dollop of tart green apple preserves. I say tart mostly because it doesn't smell super sugared and cinnamon-y like most apple flavored things seem to. I will admit, while unusual, it is nice to have something apple that isn't apple cinnamon.
The taste is mild compared to the smell, but that's pretty typical with Lupicia. I taste a tea base but I can't really identify it – Ceylon probably. The apple taste is a bit more green apple than anything but I think that has to do mostly with the end note. The initial taste of the sip seems to be fairly evenly split between tea and sweet red apple. It's very mild but summer-time pleasant. Then the swallow which edges a bit towards the tea side – making me think a bit of a Nilgiri but without the feeling that I'm eating rose bush leaves (the texture/flavor I always seem to associate with Nilgiri teas) – with only a hint of apple sweetness. Then post-swallow, the green apple flavor expands to fill my mouth, making me feel a bit like I just took a lick of an apple Jolly Rancher, but without the sticky, icky aftertaste a lot of candies can leave. It's not a tart green apple flavor though. There's no sourness or pucker to it. It's just not as sweet as the red apple portion of the program.
As almost always seems to be the case with Lupicia, the flavor is very true to the name. This is an apple tea. Quite honestly, it's a really good apple tea. I can't say for sure if I'd ever buy this – I rarely find myself craving apple flavored things unless they are an actual apple and even that doesn't happen too often – but the flavor is so tasty and makes me feel like I'm walking through an apple orchard so I really can't dislike this tea. I'd say anyone that tends to crave apple things (or just wants to experience the novelty of something apple-flavored without also being cinnamon-flavored or sour/tart) would greatly enjoy having this tea around. Honestly, I wish I had more than one bag so I could see if this made me start craving apple things. I think it might. Because now my cup is empty and I think I want more.
If it helps, I think it's dead-slow for everybody. I tend to use all evening to check it these days. I've got it to load on the page with notifications, and if I want to check anything I use new tabs. Then when I'm ready to check the posts, I start it working on finding that and go do something else in the meantime.
Welcome back! I have noticed for MONTHS now – to return to the dashboard is REALLY slow and to load some other individual pages, too!
Boo for Steepster slowness! Ang, yes, I used to load Steepster then wander off to do something else, but I am not on my computer NEAR as much as I used to be and I found that it would literally be hours before I would remember I had been doing something online and by then I either had lost the drive, forgotten what I was going to say or just didn't have time to finish and closed the windows. At least search is finally working properly now though!
And TEB, thanks! I have a feeling I'll be a bit more sporadic on here (as that's how my computer time in general has become) but I hope to still pop in to see what everyone is drinking!
Glad your back, wish the slowness would go away!
As for the Lupicia happy bags, are they a bunch of packages of tea/teabags or is it sample sizes of a bunch of different teas? I forgot about the happy bags and missed out on buying them this year:( But curious for next year.
The happy bags this year (or at least the one I got) was a collection of different 50g bags. I think 9 of them total (I got the Herbal and the Black boxes). Plus there were 4 different freebie teabag samples in the newsletter they included. Last year it was a mix with some teas in bags but this year you got to choose type (Black, Herbal/Decaf, Oolong/Green) and loose or bagged.
I was a bit scared to try this one since I can be iffy with flavored greens and I had such a not fun experience with the other "Bouquet" tea Kusmi has, the Bouquet No. 18 or something. But this actually isn't bad. It's not great or anything, but the bergamot flavor is mild and blends well with the heavier type of whatever green tea Kusmi uses. There's a bitterness that seems to build as I keep sipping but I attribute that more to the tea base than the flavoring and it isn't entirely unpleasant. It's not really bitter and not really salty. It reminds me of the taste of sea salt, which I find nice, especially when compared to the regular Morton's table salt. Most Chinese greens give me table salt salty – this gives me a flavorful sea salt taste, softly kissed with a hint of slightly floral bergamot.
It's not stellar or anything, but it's respectable and I don't hate it. I don't love it either, but it's not near as bad as I was fearing so thumbs up.
I'm sick and feel awful. But my experience with this the other day was so tasty, I've been wanting it again. This time, I'll man up and do the full four minute suggested steep.
Looking at and smelling the wet leaf I'm convinced there must be Darjeeling in there. Which must be what attributes to the brightness of the tea. But based on my first experience with this tea, I'm also pretty sure there is some Yunnan in there, which perhaps keeps the Darjeeling from taking on a sharp endnote.
This time I can taste Darjeeling – I'm guessing the longer steep time let it pop out over the other tea in the blend – but there's still some other note that's balancing the brightness of the Darjeeling. At three minutes that note seemed easily identifiable as Yunnan but at four minutes it is less so. It's just a slight textured presence that adds a little sweetness and a bit heavier taste.
At three minutes this seemed like a milder Tiger. At four minutes, it's like a whole 'nother tea. Both teas are pretty good. I probably prefer the Yunnan-dominated three minute steep but I tend to gravitate towards more of a Chinese black taste profile. I do like the fact that this tea is so changeable.
I was worried about the "bright" in the description of this tea, concerned it would be Darjeeling which, don't get me wrong, can be good and sometimes really hits the spot, but can quite often lead to a bit too much of a shock at the end of the sip for me. And I just couldn't handle that this morning. Thankfully, if there is Darjeeling in this, I can't tell.
There's no bitterness or tartness – just sweetness and a little cuddle factor, perhaps the suggestion of spices. Not spicy but just something that gives me the idea that this would pair with sugar cookies or snickerdoodles perfectly. The taste is smooth but with a little texture. And yes, it is bright. How it does that without delving into iffy tartness or astringency territory I'll never know but I like it.
If I had to call what was in it, all I could pick out would be Yunnan. It reminds me a lot of the Tiger, though perhaps the Tiger was stouter? Or perhaps I just brewed the Tiger longer. Either way, tasty tea, I am happy I have it!
I'm so glad this is reminiscent of the Tiger! I loved the sample of it that I tasted! It sold out like lightning and I never got to buy a whole tin.
I decided to sit this one out. I've still got two packages in Limbo, it was damn lucky that the one that DID show up out of the three was the important one that goes under the tree on friday! I don't dare order any more stuff until I know where all my post is. Preferably here with me.
Yep, I missed out on the Tiger too except for a generous sharing from takgoti. Glad that I was able to get this one though! There's nothing that serious tea drinking like having to pull out the screwdriver to open your tea tin! :)
Ang, I hope all your limbo packages show up! I had some misdelivered tea a while ago and I still have bitter feelings towards the post office. Grrr.
I don't know what a longan fruit smells or tastes like, but I'm guessing it's very similar to lychee because the dry leaf smells like lychee with an undernote of spicy, whooshy citrus. Post-brewing the top note of the smell is still sweetly lychee with a stronger undercurrent of bergamot.
The taste is not quite lychee, almost muscat and with a smooth note of bergamot underneath. Sometimes there's a hint of bitterness at the end of the sip. Other times it feels smooth and silky. There's a little spicy tingle in the aftertaste – I'm not sure if it is from the tea or the bergamot. The description says 'smokey' but I don't really get much of that (unless you count the spicy bit). It's more of a hint of darkness/richness that would pair well with a smoky tea but, in this, pairs with almost-lychee.
Ultimately, probably a little too fruity/unique for it to be a regular sipper but enjoyable.
I'll have to check this one out. I've been eyeing up many of their teas and really want more of their basic earl grey in my cupboard….not that I need any more tea.
I just have to convince my husband that it's okay to take over a full cupboard with tea:) At least he is coming round and drinking iced tea more and more. Now I just have to get him into the hot beverage.
Hrm. Thin mouthfeel. Woody. Green-ish. Hard to describe because there just doesn't seem to be much there. Slurping doesn't do much but a nice sweet, slightly floral note did show up in the aftertaste. Overall this is disappointingly bland. Not even normal. Bland. Maybe I'm just missing something. Meh.
Hmmm. I wonder about the batch you got. Ti Kuan Yin normally inspires gasps of pleasure. Sorry about the disappointment.
Stash carries a decent loose Ti Kuan Yin.
It's possible something was up with the batch but it really didn't seem bad. Just not a great example of a TKY. I love CTG's version (SO GOOD!) and have had a handful of other really stellar ones but for whatever reason it is easier for a TKY to miss the boat with me. Versus something like a pouchong which I'm almost always a fan of.
The dry leaf smells like hay, very sweet hay. And plums? Something fruity, sweet yet tart. Once put in a heated pot, the leaves smell dark and heavy, almost (but not quite) musky. After brewing, the tea smells sweet and tangy. The taste is slightly astringent and peppery. Yes, peppery. How strange.
Slurping brings out a sweet, fresh cut sweet grass taste and the aftertaste has a fresh floral note. There is a bitterness to it but not an unpleasant bitterness – more like the bitterness that comes with dark, leafy greens (collards, kale, that sort of thing). The mouthfeel is thin with a little of that peppery taste coming through on the texture – little dashes of roughness.
This isn't as sweet as I am normally go for but I'm finding it very attractive. Will wait on the rating to see how this romance develops.
Yep, this is one I picked up in Hawaii. No matcha. The package has zero English on it (except for the sticker Shirokiya put on it that romanizes the name and covers part of the ingredient list) and I haven't taken the time and effort to translate all the little notes on the back, but I'm pretty sure it is a blend of sencha and gyokuro. (Actually, the bag says a blend of ryokucha and gyokuro but I'm assuming their green tea = sencha vs something else.) Not sure how much gyokuro is in there though.
Interesting. The one time I had a gyokuro blend sencha (by Yamamotoyama) it was not very good at all. Hopefully this one is much better!
Kusmi says that this goes well with spearmint and I'd have to agree since it seems like this is slightly contaminated with minty from the green assortment tube it came in. But it's okay because it's not too overpowering and it adds a nice little note to what seems to be an otherwise overly average tea. There's nothing really too exciting about this one but at the same time, the fact that I don't have any issues with something that is a Chinese green says a fair amount of good about this tea. There's no salty/mineral taste (though perhaps the tinge of mint is covering it?) and it actually feels very smooth and silky while drinking, something I can't recall from a Chinese green before.
Taste-wise, it's pretty average. It's green, it's tea, it's there. There's not too much more to say about it. The feel is the neatest part – and that is pretty neat.
So ultimately, I'm a bit mixed about this tea. It's good for a Chinese green – I like it – but it doesn't seem that special other than the fact that I don't find it offensive. Totally drinkable and even enjoyable, I just don't know if it will stick in my mind enough for me to remember to drink it.
ETA: Second Steep (2:00) is a little rougher with some slight astringency and I can taste some smoke now, though it is more cigarette than pipe or campfire.

By CRAIG MURPHY
Of the Keizertimes
After months of discussion, change was on the horizon.
It seemed a 2005 city ordinance regarding tow trucks was going to be changed following numerous meetings on the topic and a heaping of input from tow truck company owners.
Even during early discussion at Monday's Keizer City Council meeting, the sense was tow truck drivers would be able to park their trucks in their own driveways, as long as certain conditions were adhered to.
At the last minute, however, the apparent momentum came screeching to a halt.
When councilors looked at the topic in 2005, a new ordinance prohibited the parking of tow trucks with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 10,000 pounds on city streets.
Several tow truck company operators have been seeking a change in that ordinance since February. In June, councilors directed city staff to change the Keizer Development Code to allow for tow trucks under the home occupation provision, upping the GVWR limit to 19,500 pounds as long as sidewalks were not blocked.
Since that entailed altering the development code, the issue was sent back to the Keizer Planning Commission. Following a public hearing on the topic last month, Planning Commission members recommended amendments allowing for trucks up to 26,000 pounds GVWR, with no vehicle being towed or loaded on a tow truck when it is parked on private property, and requiring that tow vehicles be backed onto a driveway to reduce the beeper noises in the middle of the night. In addition, tow trucks couldn't extend into the sidewalk or right-of-way area.
During Monday's public hearing, Rhonda Rich with the West Keizer Neighborhood Association noted the WKNA voted against the proposal to allow tow trucks to be parked in neighborhoods.
"There has been only opposition from the residential community," said Rich, the WKNA president. "I believe we represent the silent majority who are not aware this decision is being made. They won't realize it until they hear a tow truck in their neighborhood. Then you will hear complaints and people will be told to just live with it or move. Probably most of you don't think it will happen in your neighborhood. You, as a governing body, decide what is best for maintaining quality of life.
"I would like to suggest the ordinance remain restrictive to tow trucks in neighborhoods, as was passed in 2005," she added. "There must have been good reasons then, as there are in 2014. Let them figure out a way to do business without disrupting people who find refuge in the place they call home."
Liz Rumelhart, owner of Wiltse Towing, said she didn't have much to add since the topic has been hashed out plenty.
"Our intent is not to cause harm to neighborhoods," Rumelhart said. "Most businesses operate 8 (a.m.) to 5 (p.m.). Ours don't."
Councilor Kim Freeman noted Jack Conwell with Affordable Towing had offered her a new perspective last month.
"Tow trucks going in and out of neighborhoods can deter crimes happening at 2 a.m.," Freeman said. "There could be someone trying to break into a car. We had some good discussions."
Rumelhart noted that has indeed happened in her neighborhood.
"I catch them," she said. "I've chased off numerous people at 3 a.m. We are here to serve, not to cause mayhem with our neighbors."
After the hearing was closed, a motion was made to allow the tow vehicles in driveways.
In the subsequent discussion, there was a change.
"Over the last few months there has been a lot of testimony on the issues," councilor Marlene Quinn said. "I have waded back and forth. My job is to listen to my constituents about the livability in their neighborhoods. I've heard every citizen express a desire to not have tow trucks in their neighborhoods. My job is to listen to the constituents. I'll vote to not have this go forward."
Councilor Jim Taylor echoed Quinn.
"I'm also not going to support this," Taylor said. It comes down to if it's not broke, don't fix it. I don't think it's a big issue at night being able to respond. There's not much traffic. I've talked with some officers and they said at night it's not a big issue.
"A gentleman said early on would you want this parked next to your house?" he added. "No, I wouldn't. I have talked with a lot of other people, who said they don't want it either. I would say the vast majority of the 37,000 citizens don't want tow trucks next to them."
Freeman noted both tow truck company owners present Monday weren't aware of the current ordinance in place when discussions began.
"When we want those services, we need them there," Freeman said. "But I vote no because I listen to the citizens."
With that, the vote was taken and the measure was rejected on a 5-0 vote, with councilor Dennis Koho and mayor Lore Christopher absent.
Jeff Asher, owner of B.C. Towing, was disappointed with the outcome.
"It's really sad," Asher said. "That's making it hard to do business in Keizer and it's hard for my employees to do business and live in Keizer. The sad part is there are not that many tow trucks in Keizer."
At several times over the last several months, the idea of increasing the response time for tow trucks arriving at a scene – currently set by the Keizer Police Department at 15 minutes – was proposed, especially if tow trucks couldn't be parked in neighborhoods. That part of the issue was not brought up Monday.
"That hasn't been an issue in the past," said council president Joe Egli, who filled in as mayor pro-tem on Monday. "We didn't do anything with that. (Tow truck companies) may come back later and ask us to discuss it."

To start your Moroccan experience, you must first find a place to stay. There is a huge variety of accommodation in Marrakech and with such a large choice from large luxury hotels down to four to eight roomed riads and modern apartments, finding the right place can be hit and miss.
Our suggestion would be to go for the best of both worlds, i.e. the last word in modern comforts but with plenty of authentic local character added. Les Borjs de la Kasbah is one such, a 5 star luxury boutique hotel in Marrakech, well placed within comfortable walking distance of the centre yet far enough away from its hurly burly to be remarkably peaceful by comparison.
Having found your place to stay you'll need some suggestions for things to see and do so here's a short beginner's guide to visiting Marrakech.
Visit the ancient medina and admire the 13th century walls that surround it. The souk, one of the largest in Morocco, is a tourist's dream, such is the variety of artefacts and souvenirs you'll find there. Take an official guide to show you round, with visits to a couple of palaces and museums included.
Mix with the crowd at Djemaa el Fna – this is the renowned main square that lies at heart of the old city. Teeming with life and street entertainers of various kinds, it resounds to the cries of fruit sellers (day) and food vendors (night), the clatter of horse drawn carriages and the exotic sounds of Berber music, snake charmers' pipes and, above all, an inferno of drumming. From bargain shopping to snake charming, there's never a dull moment!
A spiritual experience: the Medersa Ben Youssef is a former koranic school better known today as one of the finest examples (along with the dynastic Tombeaux Saadiens in the Kasbah) of Islamic architecture in Morocco. One can visit the student cells and admire the fine examples of painted cedarwood ceilings, hand-carved stucco, mosaic floors and other decorative features.
Admire Morocco's cultural heritage: Marrakech is one of the best places to find locally-produced ceramics, paintings, mosaic tiling, jewellery and fabrics. Its museums, such as the Maison Tiskiwin and the Marrakech Museum, house a wealth of artifacts from Moroccan culture dating back over a thousand years including traditional clothing, illustrated manuscripts, musical instruments and ceramics, as well as modern works of art.
See Marrakech by bus: one of the best ways to see the city and get your bearings is to take a city tour in an open topped, London style, double decker bus. This takes you through the modern commercial area, Guéliz, where many of the best restaurants are located, the smart Hivernage residential area and many of the most impressive palm tree and hotel lined avenues.

HARRY Redknapp has vowed to axe any QPR player who does not pull his weight under his management.
Redknapp insists Rangers' owners had not been given the results they deserved for the money they had paid for their squad in transfer fees and wages.
New QPR boss Redknapp has only been in the Loftus Road hotseat for two days but it took him little time to assess what had led his new side to make the worst start to a season in Barclays Premier League history.
The man who rescued Tottenham and Portsmouth from relegation said: "We've got four points from 13 games, which is an incredible, low total.
"We've got to do better to give ourselves an opportunity to get out of this mess. I need people who work.
"When they lose the ball, chase it. It's what you learnt when you were at school. That's what you did in the playground. I need 11 people with the ability to put effort in. And if they give that effort then we've got a chance of surviving.
"If they don't, they're not going to play to start with and I'll find another 11 who will run about and work hard.
He added: "I've got no time for people losing the ball and throwing their arms up in air, and standing around with their hands on their hips."
Spurs and Portsmouth were also in dire trouble when Redknapp took charge and he transformed both club's fortunes in spectacular fashion.
But he said ahead of his first game in charge against Sunderland tonight: "We mustn't kid ourselves. This is much tougher than those two jobs in my opinion, but I'm optimistic we can pull it off."

We have our first entry, by Charlie Foley, into a writing competition to win a bottle of luxurious Pol Roger, Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill 1999 champagne. Find out more about how you can enter here. Competition closes 31 Aug.
One half of the stadium roared, the other half brooded over their mate. One half of the stadium ripped off their shirts and festooned themselves in the green and yellow flag, the other glanced fugitively from under their wide-brimmed Norteno hats.
It was the final of the football at the 2016 Olympic Games and the two host nations faced each other across the Boca stadium. The Brazilian team were smashing the ball past the burly Argentine keeper and it was looking to be another victory for Team Brazil. 'Gaucho pride' was in tatters; the Argentinians were left licking their wounds and limping back into the Pampas.
Brazil had dominated the Games, cleaning up gold medals in football at Maradona's home stadium, volleyball on Copacabana beach and sailing in Guanabara Bay. And, most embarrassingly for their southern neighbours, the Brazilians had managed to scoop gold medals in many equestrian events.
The much vaunted 'home advantage' had come through for the Brazilians, as it had for Britain back in 2012. Team GB had rocketed up the medals table with spectacular wins from fantastic athletes. France, meanwhile, had languished at the bottom of the medals table, their athletes accused of replacing passion with pride. London had outshone the Parisians on the field and also in the streets. It was the feel of the Games in London which had left a lasting memory for visitors; something had been happening on each street corner, there had been a buzz in the air, a spirit of celebration. Across the water, the Parisians remained aloof, hosting events without enthusiasm and grumbling about the disruption to their city. London came away from the Games with a legacy of festivity, fun and good sportsmanship. Paris had cowered in its shadow.
In 2016 south of the equator it was Brazil who had capitalised on the home advantage, its athletes charging around the track with newfound vigour. Yet it was Buenos Aires, with its tree-lined avenues, its sprawling cemeteries, its tortoise-like pace of life, which had captured the hearts of visitors. The Argentinians had welcomed everyone with open arms, its squares were thronged and its stadiums were packed. Tourists lounged beneath jacaranda trees chomping on medialunas and cheering on the athletes. Officials sipped inky Malbecs and congratulated themselves on another successful Games. The Argentinians had opened their city and invited everyone to an asado where the fire was always stoked and where the mate never ran dry.
The mood in Rio was fierce, its athletes were at the top of their game, they were gathering up golds but all in front of an absent audience. There was something so very European about Argentina that kept tourists enthralled. The French felt at home, the Spanish were practically family, the South Africans had bonded over barbequed beef, and the Americans couldn't get enough of the numerous shrinks! They all filled the squares of Buenos Aires, watching the events in Rio on big screens while sipping on ice-cold Brahma.
The athletes were shuttled up and down the coast in seaplanes. They struggled to sprint under a baking sun, their progress around the track watched by the grey eyes of the Christ Redeemer. But in the end they, like the thousands of tourists, would end up in Buenos Aires for the closing ceremony, which was bound to sound out the 2016 Olympics as an Argentine legacy.

I've been asked to explain how MDX-1106 works. I will describe this process in simple laymans terms. As a result it may not be entirely scientifically correct. But the idea and concept are close enough to share during casual conversation.
MDX-1106, also known as BMS-936558, or anti-PD1 is a natural human monoclonal antibody. Antibodies exist as part of our immune system to protect us from bacteria, viruses and infections. It is also known that our immune system is capable of fighting some cancers including kidney cancer. Every day we have mutant cells which are capable of developing into cancer but are erradicated by our immune system. Unfortunately, some cancer has a way of blocking this mechanism allowing for growth.
When a threat from a virus, bacteria or cancer is present, antibodies are produced by what are called B-cells. They attach to the "invader" and then our T-cells attack and destroy them. Once the job is completed, our immune system cells are programmed to "die" off. Their job is done. This "Programmed Die Off" is the key.
Some cancers can trigger this PD1 (programmed die off) molecule turning off the immune system too soon. Cancer can grow and spread undeterred.
MDX-1106 can be produced in the lab. Administered through an IV, the MDX attaches to this programmed die off molecule preventing the die off. As a result, the cancer cells are no longer able to hide and our system identifies the cancer as an invader attacking them. This process is referred to as Immunotherapy. Response rates are in the 30% range at this point.
MDX-1106 is still in the investigative stages and is not approved by the FDA. It is available in clinical trials but it is not widely available. New trials are taking place with MDX being used in combination with other drugs such as Votrient.
MDX-1106 and combinations of it with other drugs is showing great promise in our battle against many cancers not just kidney cancer. Melanoma and prostate cancer have also shown positive responses. It has also been shown that even after discontinuation of administration of MDX there has been a prolonged effect and benefit to responders.
This is a nutshell, across the kitchen table type of description of MDX-1106. Please don't hold me liable for errors in interpretation. But it is close enough for general discussion.
Aug 30, 2012 - 9:59 am
I doubt very seriously that there are any "errors in your interpretation". I'm trying to learn as much about RCC as I can, and since my dx and surgery the only true place for learning is here on these boards. Every time I sign on I feel as though I'm doing a continuing education course to renew my CT and MRI licenses. So much knowledge to be gained here. I have one question for you. At what stage is MDX considered an option? For those who would qualify, what procedures need to be followed to be accepted?.....and where are these trials being done? Hey, that was three questions. Still waiting for that MRI report of yours. Hoping for the best.
Aug 30, 2012 - 8:28 pm
......That's funny. And It wasn't on purpose....Anyway, Jeff, for my clinical trial, the main qualifications were: Cancer had to be clear cell. Surgery was evidently OK. I had it but I know someone who has been treated wth MDX but is still waiting for his nephrectomy. I believe no other meds to treat kidney cancer can have been recieved. They were looking for treatment naive. I also had to undergo bone scans, mri's, brain scans,2 biopsies, and an ungodly amount of blood work. Blood work is every 3 weeks as is my infusion. CT scans with contrast every 6 weeks. There have been no modifications to my program since starting last year. I am sure I forgot something there.
Aug 30, 2012 - 10:03 am
I have gleaned bits and pieces of how it works from many of your earlier posts, but it is nice to have it all in one place. Your story is one of the most if not the most followed on this board, I am truly thankful for MDX and your presence here and I am excited by the promise MDX holds in our common battle and for future generations. You are a beacon (in more ways than one) of hope to so many here and so many to come, I salute you.
Rock on,
Aug 30, 2012 - 10:09 am
Excellent Fox. This is a MUST READ for anyone undergoing or considering this treatment or simply trying to explain the process to others. Thank you for recreating.
For the record, Fox started this new thread after John and I spent over 5 hours unsuccessfully searching for his earlier post on this topic. I started searching early yesterday and John picked up the search from home. Neither of us could find.
I think this experience serves as a good reminder to be cognizant that CSN's search engine at present can not be counted on to recover previous posts (at least not quickly) and that impoortant topics like this should be given their own headline/new thread.
Thank you again Fox.

oionos, 2006
plexiglass, sound equipment, sound composition, Dimensions Variable, Duration Variable
"oionos" was commissioned by the EMST, the athens museum of contemporary art, for the exhibition the grande promenade, in athens greece. the exhibition took place in various archeological and historical sites in central athens, creating a situation for contemporary site specific works to be in dialogue with their historical surroundings. while it was not originally offered as a possible site, i pleaded with the curator to allow me to work with architect dimitris pikionis's church of st. dimitris loumbardiardis, about a 10 minute walk from the main path of the grand promenade. pikionis designed the original promenade which is still visible in several areas, but much of the area's original designs were altered during the "restoration" before the 2004 olympics. the small path that leads to the church gives a much stronger impression of pikionis's vision for the entire promenade as it was; so i wanted to use my work to draw viewers/listeners into his world.
when i first saw the small church it totally took my breath away, and i immediately began to think about a work that could exist in resonance with it - but not distract from it. the church itself is still in use, and i wanted to the work to be gentle and out of the way of the people who worship there. i decided to use the large tree in the front of the church for a hanging work that would a little bit of visual presence as well as sound which could blend with all of the insect noises and the overall quiet of the area.
the audio was built from field recordings and small "poor" objects such as tin whistles, toy harmonicas, etc. these "instruments" suggested by the museum of musical instruments in athens, where the proper instruments take up most of the museum, but there is a wonderful display case in the basement with musical toys, religious objects, and other sounding devices not considered musical instruments. i felt that these simple things related to pikionis's ideas about architecture and craft, and his interests in indigenous culture in conjunction with intellectual and modern culture. i felt there could be a relationship between the awkward humble stone paths and some kind of awkward humble sounds making quiet music.
the visual forms were inspired by some of the designs on the church exterior; as well as alexander graham bell's tetrahedral kites. i have been obsessed with bell's kites for a long time, and while working on the ideas for athens, i noticed he had named a favorite kite "oionos". the greek word suggested inserting something related to his forms into the location. i decided on plexi because i wanted a visible moment of connection to pikionis's site along with the audible one - when one stands between both works the sound from one place and the other blend together as one. i wanted to find a way to do this visually as well. the colored plexi worked in conjunction with sunlight to drop colored shapes onto pikionis's pathway, creating these temporal moments of visual connection.

So for some reason I have like 500 dynamic widgets on my widget page and only 4 of them are in use. How do I remove them? It takes me like 2 minutes to scroll to the bottom to add widgets to the only 4 I'm using.April 2, 2012 at 6:45 pm #69776
Hi metropolitandetail,
I've sent the issue to Kriesi to address and will get back to you as soon as possible.
DevinApril 12, 2012 at 4:13 pm #69777
any updates on this?April 15, 2012 at 12:38 am #69778
None yet. I have the thread and issue marked in my watch list and will update as soon as an answer is available :)
DevinJune 20, 2012 at 6:45 pm #69779
To be honest I dont understand the question :)
Where do these 500 widget areas come from? did you create them with the template builder or with the sidebar widget area tool? why not simply remove them there?
KriesiJune 25, 2012 at 2:25 pm #69780
Kriesi, I think that these widget areas came from the template builder because I made a make-shift-boutique on my site where I created the same side bar column on every page which included custom widgets that I labeled "mid column"s 1-4. But I only did that once to create the widget area, and then for the rest of the templates by typing in the widget area name it uses that widget assigned to that area.
Well perhaps it used the assigned new widget AND created a new area.
Anyway, check out this screenshot. see how the widget areas repeat? and see how small my scroll bar is? I have hundreds of these and I cannot delete them.
ALSO, my widget page doesn't have java working anymore, so i cannot drag and drop, and yes java is enabled on my browser.

Crandon shooter felt worthless before committing murders
Tyler Peterson said he felt "worthless" just before he committed last October's Crandon shooting massacre because he wasn't sure if his girlfriend still had romantic feelings for him.
The 20-year-old sheriff's deputy also left a voice-mail message for Jordanne Murray, an hour before he busted into a homecoming party at her house. That's where he killed the Murray, 18, and five others, hours before killing himself.
Thursday, the state Justice Department released hundreds of items about the case - the third such release in the last few weeks.
It included text messages between Peterson and Murray in the 24 hours before the slayings.
Murray said she needed time to sort out her feelings but was still open to going out with him. His phone message asked why she wouldn't answer.
Also Thursday, Van Hollen said he was comfortable with the way his department investigated the case.
Some of the biggest criticisms came a couple days after the shootings when Van Hollen abruptly cut off a news conference in Crandon, and urged residents not to talk to the dozens of reporters on the scene.
The AG said he was only trying to relay the concerns of people in the community and he should have made that clearer at the time.

Birthday gift ideas for POTUS aren't all smiles and sunshine
Have you ever wondered what to get the leader of the free world for his birthday?:
That was the questioned posed to thousands of Twitter users Wednesday morning by ABC's Rick Klein on the eve of President Barack Obama's 50th birthday.
Following the nail biting debt ceiling debacle, many Twitter users were none too kind to the commander-in-chief.
"A DVD of "Caveman" you know, because he caved," tweeted Bonnie Cavanagh.
"A book on economics" tweeted Jne, from Texas.
"The book 'The Complete Idiot's Guide to U.S. Government and Politics.' Too harsh?" tweeted Jeremy Trist, of Indianapolis.
Other people were more sympathetic toward the president.
"A more intelligent/reasonable country to preside over," tweeted CeeMmKay.
"A Congress that knows how to work together for the good of the people and the country," tweeted Janet Bussi, of Pittsburgh.
And some people just kept their gift suggestions light hearted.
"For the road to recovery, I'd get #Obama50 some limited edition USA New Balance 574s," tweeted Mark Chambers.
"New golf clubs," tweeted Tyler Junger, of Madison, Wis.
"A better jump shot," tweeted Alex Howard, a correspondent with O'Reilly Media.

"Reception Deception" surely can't be the phrase Steve Jobs wants associated with the Apple iPhone this close to the release of his new 4G model, but that's what several bloggers have labeled today's mea culpa from Apple.
The company admitted in a statement today that it's been using a flawed formula to display extra signal bars giving the perception that the phone has service, even when it doesn't. Apple said it's iPhones have done this since it was first introduced.
We've got the details on this evening's Marketplace. But there's one sentence in Apple's carefully crafted statement that you've really got to see in print. This is how the company explains all those dropped calls and Internet connections that users have been complaining about:
"Upon investigation, we were stunned to find that the formula we use to calculate how many bars of signal strength to display is totally wrong... We sometimes display 4 bars when we should be displaying as few as 2 bars..." Referring to customers complaints, Apple noted: "Their big drop in bars is because their high bars were never real in the first place."
Previously, Apple suggested that the customers plagued by signal problems weren't holding their new iPhones correctly. So what is the correct way to hold your iPhone? Do we need to draw you a picture? That's what Scott Johnson did over at MyExtraLife.com.

I'm on a Doctor Who prop spree at the moment. Anyone thought about the 'mood patches', from the episode Gridlock? I had a feeling they would be simple to make, but I have no experience with this kind of stuff.
Anyway, here are the graphics for the patches (gotta love the concept art section of the BBC's Doctor Who website!):
All the white areas on them are transparent in the episode, so maybe they can be printed onto something like that. Anyone have any ideas how these could be made?

Researchers with the Southern California Earthquake Center are using ORNL's Titan supercomputer to prepare the state for its next big earthquake.
When the last massive earthquake shook the San Andreas Fault in 1906, no one would hear about "plate tectonics" for another 50 years, and the Richter scale was still a generation away. Needless to say, by today's standards, only primitive data survive to help engineers prepare southern California for an earthquake of similar magnitude.
"We haven't had a really big rupture since the city of Los Angeles existed," said Thomas Jordan, Southern California Earthquake Center (SCEC) director.
Titan is the world's most powerful system for open scientific research, and project scientists including Yifeng Cui of the University of California, San Diego, and geophysicist Kim Olsen of San Diego State University are using it to simulate a major earthquake at high frequencies. These calculations are especially demanding, but are needed for the detailed predictions that are required by structural engineers.
Titan, which is managed by the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF) located at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), is a 27-petaflop Cray XK7 machine with a hybrid CPU/GPU architecture. GPUs, or graphics processing units, are accelerators that can rapidly perform calculation-intensive work while CPUs carry out more complex commands. The computational power of Titan enables users to produce simulations�comprising millions of interacting molecules, atoms, galaxies, or other systems difficult to manipulate in the lab�that are often the largest and most complex of their kind.
The SCEC�s high-frequency earthquakes are no exception.
�It�s a pioneering study,� Olsen said, �because nobody has really managed to get to these higher frequencies using fully physics-based models.�
Many earthquake studies hinge largely on historical and observational data, which assumes that future earthquakes will behave as they did in the past (even if the rupture site, the geological features, or the built environment is different).
�For example, there have been lots of earthquakes in Japan, so we have all this data from Japan, but analyzing this data is a difficult task because scientists and engineers preparing for earthquakes in California have to ask �Is Japan the same as California?� The answer is in some ways yes, and in some ways no,� Jordan said.
The physics-based model calculates wave propagations and ground motions radiating from the San Andreas Fault through a 3-D model approximating the Earth�s crust. Essentially, the simulations unleash the laws of physics on the region�s specific geological features to improve predictive accuracy.
Seismic wave frequency, which is measured in Hertz (cycles per second), is important to engineers who are designing buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure to withstand earthquake damage. Low-frequency waves, which cycle less than once per second (1 Hertz), are easier to model, and engineers have largely been able to build in preparation for the damage caused by this kind of shaking.
�Building structures are sensitive to different frequencies,� Olsen said. �It�s mostly the big structures like highway overpasses and high-rises that are sensitive to low-frequency shaking, but smaller structures like single-family homes are sensitive to higher frequencies, even up to 10 Hertz.�
But high-frequency waves (in the 2�10 Hertz range) are more difficult to simulate than low-frequency waves, and there has been little information to give engineers on shaking up to 10 Hertz.
�The engineers have hit a wall as they try to reduce their uncertainty about how to prevent structural damage,� Jordan said. �There are more concerns than just building damage there, too. If you have a lot of high-frequency shaking it can rip apart the pipes, electrical systems, and other infrastructure in hospitals, for example. Also, very rigid structures like nuclear power plants can be sensitive to higher frequencies.�
A better understanding of the effects of high-frequency waves on critical facilities could inform disaster response in addition to structural engineering.
High-frequency waves are computationally more daunting because they move much faster through the ground. And in the case of the SCEC�s simulations on Titan, the ground is extremely detailed: representing a chunk of terrain one-fifth the size of California (including a depth of 41 kilometers) at a spatial resolution of 20 meters. The ground models include detailed 3-D structural variations�both larger features such as sedimentary basins as well as small-scale variations on the order of tens of meters�through which seismic waves must travel.
Along the San Andreas, the Earth�s surface is a mix of hard bedrock and pockets of clay and silt sands.
�The Los Angeles region, for example, sits on a big sedimentary basin that was formed over millions of years as rock eroded out of mountains and rivers, giving rise to a complex layered structure,� Jordan said.
Soft ground like Los Angeles�s sedimentary basin amplifies incoming waves, causing these areas to shake more over a longer period of time than rocky ground, which means some areas further away from the rupture site could actually experience more infrastructure damage.
The entire simulation totaled 443 billion grid points. At every point, 28 variables�including different wave velocities, stress, and anelastic wave attenuation (how waves lose energy to heat as they move through the crust)�were calculated.
�High-frequency ground motion modeling is a complex problem that requires a much larger scale of computation,� Jordan said. �With the capabilities that we have on Titan, we can approach those higher frequencies.�
Back in 2010, the SCEC team used the OLCF�s 1.75-petaflop Cray XT5 Jaguar supercomputer to simulate an 8-magnitude earthquake along the San Andreas Fault. Those simulations peaked at 2 Hertz. At the time the Jaguar simulations were conducted, doubling wave frequency would have required a 16-fold increase in computational power.
But on Titan in 2013, the team was able to run simulations of a 7.2-magnitude earthquake up to their goal of 10 Hertz, which can better inform performance-based building design. By modifying their code originally designed for CPUs for GPUs�the Anelastic Wave Propagation by Olsen, Steven Day, and Cui, known as the AWP-ODC�they significantly improved speed up. The simulations ran 5.2 times faster than they would have on a comparable CPU machine without GPU accelerators.
�We redesigned the code to exploit high performance and throughput,� Cui said. �We made some changes in the communications schema and reduced the communication required between the GPUs and CPUs, and that helped speed up the code.�
The SCEC team anticipates simulations on Titan will help improve its CyberShake platform, which is an ongoing sweep of millions of earthquake simulations that model many rupture sites across California.
�Our plan is to develop the GPU codes so the codes can be migrated to the CyberShake platform,� Jordan said. �Overcoming the computational barriers associated with high frequencies is one way Titan is preparing for this progression.�
Utilizing hybrid CPU/GPU machines in the future promises to substantially reduce the computational time required for each simulation, which would enable faster analyses and hazard assessments. And it is not only processor-hours that matter but real time as well. The 2010 San Andreas Fault simulations took 24 hours to run on Jaguar, but the higher frequency, higher resolution simulations took only five and a half hours on Titan.
And considering the �big one� could shake California anytime in the next few decades to the next few years, accelerating our understanding of the potential damage is crucial to SCEC researchers.
�We don�t really know what happens in California during these massive events, since we haven�t had one for more than 100 years,� Jordan said. �And simulation is the best technique we have for learning and preparing.�

'Tis the season! We have so very much to be grateful for.2 comments on this story
God, our Heavenly King, has bestowed numerous blessings and talents among each of us unique individuals. Should we not also follow His divine example and give to others during this joyous time of year? I say to all, "Yes."
We should remember the less fortunate and struggling souls who may need a little extra help. Whether this is a new set of clothes or a simple hug, we must consider the needs of others before ourselves.
In the words of a loving grandfather, Roy E. Babbel, "To love and be loved is the greatest blessing. The greatest ingredient of that blessing is unselfishness."
If we can all strive to be better this holiday season and focus more on others, oh how much more we shall truly receive ourselves.
Joseph Babbel

I agree, Merlowe. There is nothing more isolating and soul crushing that falling in love with someone who doesn't share your feelings. It's not their fault, just the result of a sometimes callous universe. I hope this year treats you, Lunar, Pandemos, and all the Girls well and finds you all happy and healthy.

Boardroom confidence has been one main reason for the surge in equities over the past few months and such activity remained in vogue during the week. Abbott Labs moved forward with global expansion plans and announced its desire to purchase Belgian-based Solvay for $6.6 bln. Xerox added to its services segment by agreeing to acquire Affiliated Computer Services for $6.4 bln. Comcast and General Electric have been in discussions regarding a partnership or even an IPO that involves GE's NBC Universal. Latin American beverage company Femsa (Tecate, Dos Equis) also seems interested in merging its beer operations with a major player and analysts speculate about SABMiller or Heineken as potential partners in a $9 bln transaction. Meanwhile GM is poised to shut down its Saturn brand as a prior deal with Penske blew up during the week. Sticking with autos, the end of "cash for clunkers" apparently meant the end of booming activity on the domestic car lots as GM (-45%), Chrysler (-42%), Toyota (-16.1%), and Ford (-5.1%) all reported declining sales for September.
In financial news, Bank of America's Ken Lewis has had more than enough being the whipping boy and poster child for all that is wrong with the industry. He announced his plans to retire by the end of the year. (What's the BofA/Merrill severance package look like these days?) The FDIC may be asking for banks to prepay certain fees to help accommodate future failures (you mean there will still be more?) as its protection reserves moved "into the red." The Treasury announced that Invesco and TCW have raised over $1 billion (combined) in private funding and were the first firms to participate in the much-heralded Public Private Investment Program (PPIP) to buy underwater toxic assets from banks' balance sheets.
The week began on a high note for investors as the deal-making euphoria continued. However, some less than stellar reports about manufacturing, labor, and consumer confidence (see below) set off a round of profit-taking (hopefully, that's all it was) and both the Dow and S&P 500 suffered their worst day in three-months late in the week. Oil moved up and down as traders digested economic and supply data, but $70/barrel seems to be that comfort spot for crude these days. Fixed income once again became the safe-haven for some and naysayers emerged again to proclaim an end to the recent run-up that has seen stocks soar 50%+ since early March. (Then again…weren't they sharing the same negative sentiments at the beginning of September too?)
Economically Speaking… Weekly Economic Calendar
Just when it was starting to feel safe to venture back out to the malls, buy a new/used house, and ride the next rebound all the way to prosperity…the week in the economy surely brought analysts and investors back down to earth (for now). Apparently all is not totally well among the nation's manufacturers as both the Chicago Purchasing Managers index and the ISM index fell in their latest reports. While the national survey still recorded a reading above 50 (that indicates sector growth), it fell from the August report and analysts are now concerned any rebound may fizzle before its gets started. Likewise, factory orders dropped by the largest amount in the past five months. Consumer confidence slid in September, prompting new (old) concerns among the nation's retailers, though consumer spending in August actually rose by its best percentage since October 2001 (thanks in part to "clunkers").

Shifting to labor, over 260,000 jobs were eliminated from the economy in September, bringing the total losses to 7.6 million since the recession began back in late-2007. The unemployment rate hit 9.8% (on its road to 10% and beyond) and nervous employees seemed inclined to hold off on major purchases (except those discounted cars) until their individual situations stabilize. In (more positive) housing news, the S&P/Case-Shiller home price index rose for the third consecutive month and the National Association of Realtors reported that sales of existing homes climbed for the seventh straight month as first-time buyers took advantage of the federal tax credit that is scheduled to expire in November. The economy (GDP) as a whole contracted in the second quarter (-0.7%), though the pace was a tad better than the prior report indicated (-1.0%).
On the Horizon... A new quarter means another earnings season and Alcoa (October 7) is officially now on the clock. Bear in mind, the major debacle among financials and the credit crisis started in earnest last September 2008 and many analysts expect the comparative earnings numbers to begin looking better in this next round of releases. Based on the latest deal-making activity and renewed optimism coming out of the corporate boardrooms, they may just be right. In fact, while some "negative nellies" continue to predict "doom and gloom" and an eventual retest of the March lows, others look at positive signs from the IPO and M&A worlds as reasons that the equity rally could very well continue. While news from the Fed was relatively quiet during the week, investors continued to dissect each and every policy-maker's comments for indications of when they may begin unwinding certain programs. The latest auto sales data showed how quickly activity can cease once "clunkers" ended, and Fed watchers remain skeptical about other sectors after stimuli like homeowners' tax credits go away as well.

Iraq Lawmakers to Seek Reparations for 1981 IAF Strike
Lawsuit seeks billions in damages for attack on nuclear reactor, uses UN resolution as basis for claim.
A group of Iraqi lawmakers are determined to press forward with their demands for reparations for a 1981 Israeli attack on an Iraqi nuclear reactor, Baghdad's daily al-Sabbah reported Thursday.
Mohammed Naji Mohammed, a member of parliament with the United Iraqi Alliance coalition, is leading a campaign for a parliamentary resolution obliging the Iraqi foreign ministry and courts to seek billions of dollars in reparations for an Israeli air strike on the Osiraq nuclear reactor.
"We will intensify the campaign in the coming period to prevent the Foreign Ministry from delaying attempts to seek compensation for the attack in accordance with existing international resolutions," Naji told al-Sabbah.
UN Security Council Resolution 487, passed in the wake of the attack, "strongly condemns" Israel's air strike against Iraq's Osiraq nuclear reactor in June 1981, and "considers that Iraq is entitled to appropriate redress for the destruction it has suffered, responsibility for which has been acknowledged by Israel."
Israeli officials at the time said they were concerned that the reactor could eventually be used to produce nuclear weapons for the regime led at the time by Saddam Hussein.
The Security Council, however, noted at the time that the international Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) had testified that its safeguards had been "satisfactorily applied" in Iraq.
Rather, the Security Council said, the Osiraq attack constituted "a serious threat to the entire safeguards regime" of the IAEA.
Subsequent UN Security Council resolutions "deplored" Iraq's noncompliance with the IAEA inspections regime, which the Security Council in 2002 called a "threat ... to international peace and security."
Naji's statements appeared as the outgoing head of the IAEA, Mohamed ElBaradei, lashed out at Israel for its lack of cooperation in uncovering the truth about an alleged nuclear reactor in Syria.
