Picture: Ella Fitzgerald wax sculpture Madame Tussauds New York launches a special exhibit in celebration of Black History Month New York City, USA - 02.02.12
Danish jazz star NIELS-HENNING OERSTED PEDERSEN died of heart failure at his home in Ishoef, Denmark on Tuesday (19APR05). He was 58.
The double bass player performed with huge jazz names during his 35-year career, including COUNT BASIE, DIZZY GILLESPIE, Ella Fitzgerald, DEXTER GORDON, SONNY ROLLINS, BUD POWELL, BILL EVANS, LARRY CORYELE and JOE PASS.
Oersted Pedersen joined OSCAR PETERSON's trio in 1973.
In 1977 he was named "best double bass player" by critics of MELODY MAKER magazine.
MARIANNE JUL, his manager for over a decade, laments, "This comes as a great shock to us, particularly since he was not ill and had just finished touring Denmark with his trio."
Oersted Pedersen is survived by his wife and three children.21/04/2005 17:20

8 Cent Tax Increase For Lenoir City
|Contrary to the previous story, that you should have
read first, that Lenoir City property owners will not see a property tax
increase, Lenoir City property owners are actually staring down the
barrel of an eight cent property tax increase. That is if some county
commissioners get their way.
It is true that Lenoir City officials have proposed a budget that will not require a property tax increase, but unfortunately for Lenoir City property owners if county commissioners vote to move the eight cents from the school building fund, that same eight cents will be added to the city property owners county tax bill.
Due to certain laws, Lenoir City property owners do not pay any portion of the county tax rate that goes to the county schools building fund. This is because Lenoir City operates their own school system. Therefore, city property owners are not required to pay taxes for building county schools. It's actually a lot more complicate than that but the simple fact is, if county commissioners move the eight cents from the building fund to their general fund, Lenoir City folks will get hit with the tax increase.
So, if county commission votes to take the eight cents away from the school building fund and move it to the county general fund, not only were the tax payers misled that all twenty cents of the tax increase was to go to the school building fund but city property owners will see a large tax increase.
Lenoir City mayor, Tony "No Tax" Aikens and the city council, in representing their citizens, should be calling on county commission not to take the school's building fund money and not to raise property taxes on their constituents.

Dr. Robert Nagourney is an internationally recognized pioneer in cancer research and personalized cancer treatment.
He is the founder and medical director of Nagourney Cancer Institute (formerly Rational Therapeutics), Clinical Professor at the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine, practicing oncologist triple board certified in Internal Medicine, Medical Oncology and Hematology, and author of the book, Outliving Cancer.
With more than 20 years experience in human tumor primary culture analyses, Dr. Nagourney has AUTHORED more than 100 manuscripts, book chapters and abstracts including publications in the JOURNAL OF CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, GYNECOLOGIC ONCOLOGY and THE JOURNAL OF THE NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE.
Over the past 20+ years, Dr. Nagourney and his team here at the Nagourney Cancer Institute have developed a laboratory technique, functional profiling, that measures how cancer cells respond when they are exposed to a wide variety of drugs and drug combinations.
Put simply, functional profiling is a real-time measure of which drugs cause your cancer cells to die, through a process called programmed cell death. By using this approach, we try to determine in the laboratory the best drugs for each patient before they receive them.
This helps us select the most effective and least toxic drug regimen for your cancer.
Call us at 800-542-4357 to discuss your particular situation.
Among his research accomplishments, Dr. Nagourney is recognized for his work in the introduction of Cisplatin/Gemcitabine doublets (two drugs given together) in the treatment of advanced ovarian and breast cancers.
Watch as Dr. Nagourney shares his unique insight into cancer, cancer research, and his treatment philosophy in this engaging TEDx Talk.
With functional profiling , we can help discover the most effective and least toxic drug regimen for you PRIOR to initiating treatment.
To find the most effective treatment for you, living tumor cells are collected during biopsy or surgery.
We expose your living cancer cells in the laboratory to chemotherapy drugs, targeted agents and various combinations.
By using combinations of drugs found most effective in the laboratory, Dr. Nagourney and his team have been able to double response rates and improve survival for his patients.
We can test most types of cancers, solid and hematologic (blood).
Samples are sent to us from all over the US and internationally. Since the test involves living cancer cells, the samples MUST arrive in a very timely manner, within 24-36 hours.
Results are generally available within 7 days of receipt of your cancer sample in our laboratory.
For more information or to order a specimen transportation kit, please call us at 800-542-4357. It's important to call us BEFORE your biopsy or surgery.

Product information
Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec designed Corniches in 2012 in response to the need for the spontaneous storage of household objects, especially in small spaces.

The mage Ragefast is holding a nymph captive in his house in Baldur's Gate West. There are three potential quest givers for this quest: Lady Hannah, Ramazith, and Ragefast. Lady Hannah can be found in Baldur's Gate Central in the northwest corner of the local map standing near the Poultry Store. When the party is close enough she greets them and begins complaining about the mage Ragefast being a dirty old man. If the player asks her to explain further the quest begins and Lady Hannah tells the player that Ragefast is keeping a nymph captive in his house. If the player says they do not wish to get involved she leaves and the quest does not start. Ramazith can be found in Baldur's Gate North outside Ramazith's Tower. He will greet the player and ask them if they are interested in doing some work of an illegal nature. If the player refuses his offer at any point he will leave and return to his tower. If the player expresses interest he says that he wants them to steal a nymph from the mage Ragefast and will reward them with magical items. If asked to improve his offer he will say that he cannot. If the player accepts his offer and Jaheira is with the party she will protest but will take no action. The quest can also be acquired by simply entering Ragefast's House.
Finding and Confronting Ragefast Edit
Though Lady Hannah and the in game journal both say Ragefast's house is located in the northwest corner of Baldur's Gate it is actually in Baldur's Gate West. Baldur's Gate West can be reached by going to Baldur's Gate Central and walking to the west side of the map. Ragefast's House is in the northeast corner of Baldur's Gate West. The door is locked.
Once the player is inside Ragefast will greet them and refuse to let them leave because they have seen the nymph, Abela, who he is holding captive. He expresses his belief that Abela and him are meant to be together after which Abela says that she is not long for this world. If the player says that they were sent by Ramazith, Ragefast will become hostile. This is not necessarily a problem as Ragefast must die in order to take Abela to Ramazith. If the player threatens Ragefast or Abela in any way during the conversation he will attack. In order to talk Ragefast into releasing Abela the player must avoid threats and use his feelings for Abela as leverage to convince him to set her free.
Outcomes Edit
Free Abela the Nymph Edit
If Abela is set free and Ragefast is not killed she will give the player a lock of her hair as a reward and the party also receives 2000 XP. There are no reputation benefits for freeing Abela. This path yields the second smallest reward. If Ragefast is killed and Abela is freed the party receives Nymph Cloak plus item drops from Ragefast: The Protector, a wand of paralyzation, and knave's robes.
If the player frees Abela and returns to Ramazith without her he will become hostile and attack the party with a lightning spell before teleporting himself to the top of his tower. The party must then fight their way up through the tower. The second floor has two mustard jellies, the third floor has six ghasts, the fourth floor has six hobgoblins, and the fifth has six kobolds. Ramazith is on the sixth floor. It is possible to fight him there for a brief time before he teleports away to a different floor of the tower.
Deliver Abela to Ramazith Edit
If Ragefast is killed and Abela is taken to Ramazith the party is supposed to receive Bracers of Defense and 2000 XP as a reward but the quest is glitched in the original Baldur's Gate and the player receives no reward for their effort except for loot from Ragefast. At this point the player can still talk to Abela and free her. There are no reputation penalties for handing her over but if Jaheira and Khalid are in the party they refuse to let Ramazith take Abela. They attack him but do not become hostile to the player. They will not rejoin the party after he is dead. His body can be looted for an Amulet of Metaspell Influence, knave's robes, and a The Guard's Ring +2.
Most Profitable Course Edit
The course of action that yields the greatest reward in XP and loot is to promise to bring Abela to Ramazith, kill Ragefast, free Abela, then return to Ramazith without her and kill him and his monsters. This may be difficult to achieve for some players and party configurations.

Contact Martin Collins
In his Horse & Hound magazine column last week (1 December 2016) top showjumper Robert Whitaker was full of praise for the The College Equestrian Centre in Keysoe, North Beds having competed himself at the CSI2* show there at the end of November.
"The best thing about this venue is that every time we come back, it has improved again."
He remarked upon the improved stables, now under cover and the doubling in size of the warm up indoor arena.
"And being able to use the huge all weather arena next to the indoor building is brilliant. No one could complain that they didn't have space or time to work their horses in properly.
"Overall it has been a great show. There were classes for everyone and the team here are trying very hard to get everything right. They deserve our support."
And, it was another member of the famous Whitaker showjumping dynasty, Michael Whitaker who triumphed in the show's flagship class – the world ranking grand prix. He took top honours in the 13 strong jump off, with Jayne Bean's 10 year old home-bred mare JB'S Hot Stuff.
"She was very good today and she's getting better as she gets more experience," commented Michael who reported that he will be taking her to Olympia in December, where Martin Collins also provides an Ecotrack equestrian surface.
Venue owner, Simon Bates, was delighted with the Show: "We're not a posh international show with hospitality and passes to go everywhere. We're running this for the riders and if their owners come and watch. I hope they enjoy it too," he said.
The Martin Collins Ecotrack surface now in the indoor arenas at Keysoe is provides an international level competition surface. It is a combination of CLOPF fibre, high-grade industrial silica sand and PVC, which is carefully weighed and blended with a wax coating to offer different variants suitable for different disciplines.
It is the choice of some of the world's most prestigious sporting venues, including Olympia, because it provides a multi-purpose solution which the competitors trust and which can withstand the intensive use by different equestrian disciplines and displays.
Contact us now for further information on the full range of Martin Collins equestrian surface solutions, including Ecotrack and Clopf.

Surface-Confined Metal?Organic Nanostructures from Co-Directed Assembly of Linear Terphenyl-dicarbonitrile Linkers on Ag(111)
A detailed structural analysis of the surface supported self-assembly of terphenyl-4,4′′-dicarbonitrile molecules (NC−Ph3−CN) linked by Co adatoms on Ag(111) reveals different surface patterns depending on the constraints applied to the system. Without constraints, i.e., sufficient mobility and absence of space limitations at the surface, extended regular honeycomb nanomeshes are formed. On the basis of high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy images, an atomistic model is derived showing the crystallographic orientation of the molecules and a commensurate alignment of the honeycomb networks, which exist in two rotational domains on the Ag(111) atomic lattice. For Co deficiency, an additional star-like Co-directed motif has been identified, and fully disordered networks are present if space limitations are imposed. In these cases, nodal motifs exist showing between 3- and 6-fold coordination of Co centers.

3D Maps
dimensional photos and maps can help resource managers quickly
analyze hydrologic, aesthetic, habitat type, fire suppression
and other site management factors. Once mastered, the steps in
creating 3D land images are fairly simple.
Figure C
Figure D
programs featured in the Digital Grove
Toolbox will easily generate 3D views:
first loads a Digital Elevation Model, which can then be rotated
and viewed from any angle. You can work with just the Digital
Elevation Model if you wish, but the real power of 3DEM is
its ability to add an overlay or "skin" from a 2D
image over the top of the terrain model (click Figures
B-D, above, for information about how the views were
generates perspective views of Digital Elevation Models like
3DEM, but it excels in the ability to create striking 3D maps
of data as shown in the following example (click the image
for a full-screen view). Look here
for a short tutorial
on how this map was made.
Mapper produces a simple 3D view from a vertical perspective
if you load a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and turn on hill-shading.
You can use the Control Center/Options command to apply a
bitmap layer as
a texture map to the DEM for a 3D effect including advanced
blending capabilities for raster layers (Figure
Also, check out NASA's
World Wind and Google
Earth. Both programs download digital terrain models
and geographic imagery automatically from web servers. All
you need to do is navigate around the globe to the place you
want to view. Broadband Internet and a robust PC are required
for the programs to work.
are three images that show (1) a conventional aerial photo, (2)
a bare 3D terrain model and (3) the previous two elements combined.
Note that the hill shadows, which are not the same in the second
and third images, illustrate how the position of the light source
can be moved in 3DEM. You'll get a more realistic overlay image
in 3DEM if you adjust the "sun" position to correspond
with the shadows in the original aerial photo.
3DEM works with two layers: the elevation model and one overlay
image. As such, it does not have the ability of the free TatukGIS
Viewer or Global Mapper to add multiple data layers. By using
3DEM and the TatukGIS Viewer or Global Mapper together, you
can have the best of both programs. These programs can be
used to produce overlays that incorporate multiple geospatial
data layers. Export a TatukGIS Viewer image (which is saved
with georeferencing information) or a screen capture of a Global
Mapper image to use it as an overlay in 3DEM.
can use images from many sources: screen captures, Digital Ortho
Photos, USGS Digital Raster Graphics, GeoTiff files, TerraServer
images, etc. The trick is to be able to register the overlay
image so that it exactly lines up with the underlying DEM. 3DEM
will automatically align georeferenced overlays. For scanned
or captured images with georeferencing information, 3DEM has
a geo-referencing dialog box. The user places two crosshair
markers on the overlay image, entering the latitude and longitude
of the two points (generally a point in the upper left and one
in the lower right of the overlay).
creating an overlay view in 3DEM, you can produce animated
flyover movies. You can also make a movie of the 3D view
rotated on an center axis. If you have a broadband Internet
connection, click here for
a small (678KB) sample animation
of Devil's Lake State Park, Wisconsin. (The animation is minimized
in size for the web. 3DEM will generate vivid, large animations,
but they are impractical to serve on the Internet due to their
large file size.)

gallery at 3DEM. To delve further into the creation of interactive

Lower FPS
Hello, I'm having this "problem" that I'm getting somewhat lower FPS than I've used to. While gaming, I've used to get like 110-120 fps on some games, now I'm mostly getting 80. I know it's not still too bad, but it still feels weird.
When I first bought my laptop (yes, I'm gaming with a laptop.) I used to get that 100+ fps pretty much always, then suddenly some day my fps'ses started lowering. I noticed that I mostly got 60 fps, never really higher and I was really amazed by that. Then couple days later, I only got like 20-30fps, no matter what resolution or settings I used.
I got that problem solved by updating all my drivers on my PC. (Expect I've never ever touched the BIOS on my PC, because I feel unsure about it.)
After that, I had to re install my whole PC, so that I formatted C:/ basically. After that, I again updated all drivers, so the PC is like back then, but yet it feels somewhat "weaker".
At one point, I got only 60 fps in one game (half of what I used to), so I removed my graphics cards drivers and installed older one, which I use now.
My laptop is MSI's GX740, which has ATI Mobility 5870 as graphics card. And my 3dMark06 and 3dVantage tests give somewhat normal score, but yet it's bothering me...
Thanks for any help
EDIT: Noticed that my thread had been moved, I wasn't sure whether to put it to gaming or performance, so I put it to performance since it's related to performing. Seems like I put it in wrong section still and I'm sorry for that.

EDIT: Okay, I just installed the hotfix thing, it seems a little better, hard to say since FPS games really have quite jumpy FPS due to all the stuff happening. It feels still little less than I used to have, but the problem might just be in my head.

This is most interesting. I've been catching hell from family members for years for merely suggesting that homosexuality could be a mental disorder, and not just an "alternative lifestyle".
I believe that it's rooted in one's response to abuse and/or neglect, and is the ultimate manifesation of self-loathing.
Kinda funny, but I have been posting that opinon to this forum for a long time.
It makes sense, and one doesn't need to be psychiatrist to understand that.
Good find.
Unfortunately, in today's homo-centric media, this message will get little traction.
That's an interesting statement. How do you come to this conclusion? (I can almost see the rationale for it intuitively, but please explain.)
I agree with you. I think something is wrong. Someday the real truth will come out. I have gay relatives. It worries me. They are a bit off mentally. One, is mentally incompetent, and the other grew up very low self image, bad marriage, couldn't have children, etc.

Unfair – no fair
A. He is a perfect gentleman.
B. He plays unfair.
If you picked 'A' then you are already losing.
If you picked 'B' then you might be gaining on or beating your competition.
If you are gaining on or beating your competition – they will never admit that you are playing fair. That would make them look bad.
If your goal is to be fair to your competition – shame on you.
If your goal is to grow your business, and along the way – crush your competition – good for you.
Stop feeling obliged to your competition. Stop playing fair with them. Beat them. Destroy them. Crush them.
Don't play fair. Play to win. Your customers will applaud you.

How are you defining Fair vs. Unfair.. I am worried people might misinterpret your comments to saying you should be unethical (which is also unfair)..
- George Torok said...
Hi Curt,
Thank you for your comment. You raise an important point.
Playing unfair doesn't mean being unethical.
Playing unfair means using every tool you have to win.
Walmart is often accused by its competitors of playing unfair. Yet they are certainly ethical and more than fair to their customers.
If you offer twice the value of your competition - that is certainly unfair to your competition. It is ethical and perfecty fair to your clients.
Play unfair. Play to win.

Choosing to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior is the most important decision you'll ever make.
God's word, the Bible, promises, "that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation."
(Romans 10: 9-10)
By His grace, God has already done everything to provide salvation. Your part is simply to believe and receive.
If you'd like to make Jesus the Lord of your life, pray this simple prayer outloud:
"Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Savior. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank you for saving me."
The very moment you commit your life to Jesus Christ, the truth of His Word instantly comes to pass in your spirit. Now that you're are born again, there's a brand new you.
For more scriptures and explanation keep reading:
We must individually RECEIVE Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then we can know and experience God's love and plan for our lives.
We Must Receive Christ
"But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name" (John 1:12)
We Receive Christ Through Faith
"For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9)
When we receive Christ, We Experience a New Birth
"I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Do not be surprised when I say you must be born again. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit." ( John 3:1-8)
We Receive Christ by Personal Invitation
Jesus said, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him." (Revelation 3:20)
Receiving Christ involves turning to God from self (repentance) and trusting Christ to come into our lives to forgive our sins and to make us the kind of people He wants us to be. Just to agree intellectually that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He died on the cross for our sins is not enough. Nor is it enough to have an emotional experience. We receive Jesus Christ by faith, as an act of will.

For use with all 12-Volt or 24-Volt compressors up to 80 Amp total amp draw. Relays works with compressors that fill air tanks by utilizing a pressure switch. The relay acts as a buffer between the compressor and the pressure switch which can burn out prematurely from experiencing full amp draw of a compressor.
California residents: see Proposition 65 information
- A heavy duty base allows the 80 Amp relay to be bolted into place, making all connections secure
- Power-up relay removes the load from pressure switches
- Best for use with higher amperage-rated compressors over 40 Amp or with multiple compressor setups
- Rated to a maximum amperage of 80 Amp

UPDATE: Attorneys for Bill Cosby issued a statement following Wednesday's arraignment. Per NBC, it reads: "The charge by the Montgomery County District Attorney's office came as no surprise, filed 12 years after the alleged incident and coming on the heels of a hotly contested election for this county's DA during which this case was made the focal point. Make no mistake, we intend to mount a vigorous defense against this unjustified charge and we expect that Mr. Cosby will be exonerated by a court of law."
Bill Cosby was arraigned Wednesday afternoon in Pennsylvania's Montgomery County District Court on sexual assault charges stemming from 2004.
Judge Elizabeth McHugh read the charges against the 78-year-old and, per CNBC, set his bail at $1 million. Per CNN, Cosby handed over his passport and did not enter a plea. He will remain free on bail pending trial. A preliminary hearing was set for Jan. 14 at 9:30 a.m. If convicted on the felony second degree charge of aggravated indecent assault, Cosby faces five to 10 years behind bars and a $25,000 fine.
Courtesy: Montgomery County DA
In the hours before Cosby's arraignment, an arrest warrant for the comedian was issued over the 2004 case alleging he drugged and sexually violated former Temple University employee Andrea Constand at his Philadelphia-area home. Although a judge originally dismissed the case in 2005, the charges filed Wednesday were the result of new evidence that came forth this summer.
"A prosecutor's job is to follow the evidence wherever it leads and whenever it comes to light," said First Assistant D.A. Kevin R. Steele in a statement Wednesday. "Upon examination of all of the evidence, today we are able to seek justice on behalf of Mr. Cosby's victim.."
Per NBC News, Constand was not specifically named during Wednesday's conference, but Steele said the woman, "has indicated that she is willing to cooperate with us going forward."
—Additional reporting by Lindsay Good & Baker Machado
For more on Cosby arraignment and what's next, tune in to E! News tonight at 7 and 11 p.m.

Florida, (PressExposure) February 03, 2009 -- Height has always been a concern of so many people today. Some may think that this does not matter but the impact of celebrities on daily lives somehow convince others that height is important one way or the other. This is why http://www.howtogettallerfast.com/ is maximizing the demand for more height.
âDo not believe everything that you see on the commercials,â said Suzanne Daas, CEO and Spokesperson. âManufacturers know how to make their products marketable and can convince people to buy these.â
The site gives visitors tips on the right exercises that they can do in order to grow taller in a natural manner. Unlike most sites, they do not encourage the use of magic pills. Instead, the site encourages exercising done rigorously that would eventually give the individual the inches that he or she wants.
Did you know that you can in fact get taller by three inches just by doing those stretching exercises? The usual target of these exercises is the spine. It develops and eventually tones the muscles which render the supports of the spine and also increases the height of the individual. Once the muscles have been developed properly, the spine will then lengthen. This is at the same time, the spine straightens for the added inch, or maybe even two.
The site also informs readers about the intake of supplements. There is the proper way to take supplements and this is very much important with regular exercises. The market offers so many supplements in the market but these do not have the right ingredients needed in order to stimulate the growth hormone production.

Manama, Dec.1: Amnesty seekers who can't afford to leave Bahrain will be given a free flight ticket to India starting on Friday, a local newspaper has reported.
India"s Ambassador to Bahrain, Balkrishna Shetty, will choose who can best benefit from the free tickets, the Gulf Daily News reported.
"This does not mean that we want them to leave, but we are only trying to help them not get arrested or used," said Monu Mathew, director of the Indian Institute for Performing Arts who donated the tickets.
"Most of them are poor labourers, who haven't seen their families and wives for years because they couldn't afford to go back," Mathew added.

Calling into a conservative talk show, Glenn Beck offered his views on why Conservative activist Supreme Court Judge Antonin Scalia, was found dead last weekend. Because, according to Glenn Beck, God wanted to show Americans how easy it was for us to lose our liberty, so, according to Glenn Beck, God wants us elect "a true constitutionalist" like Ted Cruz to save America.
Yea, you can't make this stuff up!
"I just woke the American people up," Beck said, explaining the wonders of God's plan. "I took them out of the game show moment and woke enough of them up to say, look at how close your liberty is to being lost. You now have lost your liberty. You replace one guy and you now have 5-4 decisions in the other direction. Just with this one guy, you've lost your liberty so you'd better elect somebody that is going to be somebody on [the court] because for the next 30 years, if you don't, the Constitution as you know it [is gone]."
"The Constitution is hanging by a thread," he declared. "That thread has just been cut and the only way that we survive now is if we have a true constitutionalist."
Ted Cruz often refers to himself as a true constitutionalist, except of course the part of the constitution that talked about "Natural Born Citizen."0

Posted on 02/22/2010 7:40:34 AM PST by CaroleL
The trouble with hope and change is that it only works for the unelected. After you get the job you have to provide more than hope, and change is suddenly defined as "not you". Since President Obama took office, each time American voters have gotten the opportunity they have voted for a different kind of change. Yet the president and his fellow Democrats continue to believe that if they just change the wrapping paper, we'll suddenly want what they're offering.
(Excerpt) Read more at talkingsides.com ...
I saw a great bumper sticker yesterday. It asked, simply: "Got Hope?"
He wanted to challenge the Establishment. Today he IS the Establishment.
CHANGE. It'll be good for America.
Lets not count our chickens before November. There are a LOT of things that can happen between now and then.

Unanswered: Can't compact db- Records can't be read?!?!
I am trying to compact an Access 97 database, and I keep getting a message of "Record(s) can't be read; no read permission on C:\databasename.mdb". What does this mean?!?
I tried "Repair" first, which ran OK, then compact, then I got the message. I then tried taking a copy (no repair this time) and compacting it, and I got the same message. The db1.mdb was left behind, and looks like an OK copy, but I really don't like that error message. This database swells to the large size pretty quickly and gets compacted about once a week. The database has been behaving strangely the last couple of days. It wasn't designed very well (I am an heir, not the creator). Right now it's 413MB, and once I compact it, it should shrink to about 150MB.
I know the database is nearing its limit. The Access db was a "temporary" system solution that's been in operation for 18 mos, and will probably need to keep going at least another six months.

text: Ok, here's one relating to CFM output in pellet inserts for all of the math people out there. I am looking at adding a pellet insert in my living room. I will need to box in the vent pipe and add a stove enclosure for the insert as I currently have a bare wall backing to the outsside. We plan to brick it up to the ceiling for a nice look. Wanting all the heat we can squeeze out, my question is: Based upon the BTU output of a stove, is it possible to have too much airflow CFM passing through an insert? i.e. the heat exchanger doesnt have time to bring up the air to proper temperature prior to it being pushed back out. I currently have a: Quadrafire Mt Vernon AE freestanding: 220cfm output Harmon Accentra insert: 180 CFM (The Harmon blows fair while the extra 40cfm on the Quad makes a lot of difference) I am looking at a Hampton GCI60: 300CFM Seems like the extra CFM would mean more heat being transferred into the room, but there is a point at which the BTUs produced will not support the air passing by the heat exchanger. 1. Anyone have experience with cfms and heating effiency? 2. Is the Enviro M55 the same as the Hampton GCI60? Seems like a couple of posts refer to them as one in the same. 3. Would anyone push me away from the Hampton GCI60 at 300 cfm? Thanks Ray

Our client this week chose a really inviting and comfortable looking deep red fabric from "Ross" for two "Parker Knoll" armchairs. This best quality, flame-retardant fabric is also highly durable and will give many years of service while retaining its shape and good looks.For consistency, the client also requested four seat pads for their beautiful "Ercol" dining chairs. The colour complements the wood frames of the chairs really well, sharing and extending the rich, warm tones, looking every bit as comfortable as they feel. The seat pads were made to the highest original "Ercol" specification, so will give years of comfort and service.
To ensure an "as new" finish, the armchairs were first of all stripped back to their frames so that they could be checked thoroughly before replacing the interiors with up to the minute, best quality flame retardant materials. Also, existing seat cushion interiors were replaced with best quality flame retardant "Reflex" interiors, which carry a ten year guarantee. They were also wrapped in a secondary casing, comprising Dacron and stockinette, to prolong cushion life. "Reflex" interiors ensure maximum comfort, quality and durability. This ensures that they are completely restored to their original highest "Parker Knoll" specification. Our client said she was really pleased she'd had the work done and the armchairs were really comfortable. She also commented that the dining chair pads were fitted and fixed beautifully. Here is the review that Mrs R sent to "Which? Trusted Traders":My review.

Southern Highlands Golf ClubGolf Course Review by: Bill Satterfield
Quick Facts
Designer: Robert Trent Jones Sr. and Jr. in 1999
Cost: Private with forecaddie ($40 tip recommended)
Phone Number: (702) 263-1000
Course Website: Official Website - Visit Southern Highland's official website by clicking on the link provided.
Directions: Get here! - 1 Robert Trent Jones St., Las Vegas, Nevada 89141
Photos: See additional photos of Southern Highlands
Accolades: Ranked 6th in Nevada on Golf Digest's 2013-14 Best in State list.
Comparable Courses: Twin Warriors (NM), Terravita (AZ), Vaquero (TX), and National Golf Club (NC).
What to Expect: Southern Highlands is one of only four courses that can make the impressive claim of being a co-designed golf course by Robert Trent Jones Sr. and Jr. The course is found within the luxury Southern Highlands community just off I-15 a few miles south of downtown Las Vegas. The most distinguishing feature of the Southern Highlands golf course is the unique bunkering molds that look like a series of ink blots scattered throughout the track and delivers an artistic slant to each hole. In typical Vegas fashion, the course delivers some fluff with waterfalls featured on a few holes, but the architectural merits of the course go well beyond the fluff. The bunkering is peppered near the landing areas of most of the holes and require the golfer to stay focused on each shot and strategy they choose to employ throughout the round. Several elevation changes also are featured throughout the rolling terrain with the largest change being from the tee box of the 500 yard par four 11th hole down to the bunkerless fairway. Southern Highlands is a wonderful and challenging golf course that is a favorite in Vegas.
Signature Hole: 18th - 622 Yard Par 5 - Southern Highlands' finishing hole is not one you will soon forget. Measuring out over 600 yards, this dramatic par five plays uphill with a dual fairway that is split by a tumbling rocky creek. The risky and potentially more rewarding option is to challenge the more challenging left side which will shorten the hole and open up a better shot into the green. The safer right side offers more fairway to play in but a potentially blind shot into the putting surface. With the impressive clubhouse and mountains acting as a backdrop, this is a hole you won't soon forget.
By the Numbers:
|Gold (Women)
Individual Hole Analysis
Best Par 3: 12th - 177 Yards - Storied as the final hole Robert Trent Jones Sr. and Jr. worked on together, this attractive one-shotter plays over a pond to a green that is angled at a 45 from front left to back right along the water's edge. A green length bunker travels along the left side of the putting surface and acts as a catcher's mitt for balls banking off the built up hill located between the bunker and the cart path.
Best Par 4: 16th - 423 Yards - Options; the key to any great hole and the element that makes it interesting over and over again. On the 16th hole the golfer is presented with split fairway where a smaller landing area is offered up the left side after carrying the waste area and a larger fairway is presented up the right. A short and relatively easy approach is offered from the left fairway while the approach from the right brings a bunker and inferior angle to the green into play. The choice is yours and your decision on how to play it may vary depending on what game showed up for you.
Best Par 5: 3rd - 620 Yards - Featuring an elevated tee, this dogleg left hole features a large bunker complex on the inside corner and a longer, skinnier bunker on the far side of the fairway. After the tee shot players are confronted by a large pond that fronts the green and wraps around the right side. There is no margin for error when trying to reach the green in two unless players can start the ball out left of the green and fade it in towards the hole thus keeping it over land the entire time. Alternatively players can layup to the fairway left of the water before wedging their third shot onto the putting surface. With a lot of hazards and options, the 3rd at Southern Highlands is a great par five to play early in the round.
Birdie Time: 5th - 365 Yard Par 4 - While the scorecard reads 365 yards, a 250 yard carry straight at the flag will clear the water hazard and likely leave you with an eagle putt. For the less daring, less than driver is needed while players take aim at the large bunker complex up the left side of the hole. Once arriving in the fairway short of the sand, a nice wedge shot into the green will leave the safe player with a birdie putt and a great chance of taking a stroke back from old man par.
Bogey Beware: 10th - 455 Yard Par 4 - While the impressive 11th hole with its expansive views measures 45 yards longer, the 11th plays well downhill while the 10th climbs uphill at a challenging pace. Fairway bunkers protect each side of the driving zone and the uphill lies in the fairway often deceive golfers into taking less club then they need to reach the green. With two of the hardest holes on the course back-to-back, the second nine at Southern Highlands starts off as stout as any course you'll play.
Final Cut: Southern Highlands is a top 5 Vegas course and one of the finest private facilities in Nevada. The bunkering is an eye catcher while the numerous trees and water features offer a nice break from the traditional desert style golf so prevalent in the region. Grade B+

Why Do Absolute Returns Predict Volatility So Well?
Our objective is volatility forecasting, which is core to many risk management problems. We provide theoretical explanations for (i) the empirical stylized fact recognized at least since Taylor (1986) and Ding, Granger, and Engle (1993) that absolute returns show more persistence than squared returns and (ii) the empirical finding reported in recent work by Ghysels, Santa-Clara, and Valkanov (2006) showing that realized absolute values outperform square return-based volatility measures in predicting future increments in quadratic variation. We start from a continuous time stochastic volatility model for asset returns suggested by Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard (2001) and study the persistence and linear regression properties of various volatility-related processes either observed directly or with sampling error. We also allow for jumps in the asset return processes and investigate their impact on persistence and linear regression. Extensive empirical results complement the theoretical analysis.
