I don't want some piece of **** that needs several thousand in maintenance right off the bat. The one I want already has the headgasket done, PHH,
the axles have been gone through as well if I remember correctly.
I won't buy one unless it's clean and well maintained(with records).

I think my baseline and fixing on the 80 that I bought ran me a total of 3100 and change, but that's a little above and beyond the norm. I put in a 2wd kit, new shafts/birfs and had new driveshafts made with CVs instead of the stock style as mine was lifted beyond shims.

Headgasket, look for another $1500 in parts and labor. Rebuilding the head is optional but that's another $300 right there if you want it perfect.
Cooling system in the 80s are old. Most owners neglect them. A full overhaul which can cost another $500 in just parts alone. This is a DIY. Not hard at all.
AC, prepare your angus. I am leaving mine broken. I ain't ready to tackle the **** show just yet.
Power steering, PHH, fan clutch, e-brake, these are also other know failures mostly because of age. Crap adds up. But once it is all sorted out, it's a great truck to own....well, besides the 12mpg.
Like I said I'm not buying the cheapest one I can find, I'm buying one that's ready to go.
I've been keeping an eye in the classifieds on mud and I've been reading everything I can. I know what to look for and I'm not going to settle on just any old truck. You guys have to realize I'm coming from german vehicles, this **** isn't new to me.

I just saw these Chuck Norris facts...
Ken Rockwell is the Chuck Norris of photography
Ken Rockwell's camera has similar settings to ours, except his are: P[erfect] Av[Awesome Priority Tv[Totally Awesome Priority] M[ajestic]
Ken Rockwell doesn't color correct. He adjusts your world to match his.
Sure, Ken Rockwell deletes a bad photo or two. Other people call these Pulitzers.
Ken Rockwell doesn't adjust his DOF, he changes space-time.
Circle of confusion? You might be confused. Ken Rockwell never is.
Ken Rockwell doesn't wait for the light when he shoots a landscape - the light waits for him.
Ken Rockwell never flips his camera in portrait position, he flips the earth
Ken Rockwell ordered an L-lens from Nikon, and got one.
Ken Rockwell is the only person to have photographed Jesus; unfortunately he ran out of film and had to use a piece of cloth instead.
When Ken Rockwell brackets a shot, the three versions of the photo win first place in three different categories
Before Nikon or Canon releases a camera they go to Ken and they ask him to test them, the best cameras get a Nikon sticker and the less good get a Canon sticker
Once Ken tested a camera, he said I cant even put Canon on this one,thats how Pentax was born
Rockwellian policy isn't doublethink - Ken doesn't even need to think once
Ken Rockwell doesn't use flash ever since the Nagasaki incident.
Only Ken Rockwell can take pictures of Ken Rockwell; everyone else would just get their film overexposed by the light of his genius
Ken Rockwell wanted something to distract the lesser photographers, and lo, there were ducks.
Ken Rockwell is the only one who can take self-portraits of you
Ken Rockwell's nudes were fully clothed at the time of exposure
Ken Rockwell once designed a zoom lens. You know it as the Hubble SpaceTelescope.
When Ken unpacks his CF card, it already has masterpieces on it.
Rockwell portraits are so lifelike, they have to pay taxes
On Ken Rockwell's desktop, the Trash Icon is really a link to National Geographic Magazine
Ken Rockwell spells point-and-shoot "h-a-s-s-e-l-b-l-a-d"
When Ken Rockwell went digital, National Geographic nearly went out of business because he was no longer phyically discarding photos
For every 10 shots that Ken Rockwell takes, 11 are keepers.
Ken Rockwell's digital files consist of 0's, 1's AND 2's.
Ken Rockwell never focus, everything moves into his DoF
Ken Rockwell's shots are so perfect, Adobe redesigned photoshop for him: all it consists of is a close button.
The term tripod was coined after his silhouette
Ken Rockwell never produces awful work, only work too advanced for the viewer
A certain braind of hig-end cameras was named after people noticed the quality was a lot "like a" rockwell
Ken Rockwell isn't the Chuck Norris of photography; Chuck Norris is the Ken Rockwell of martial arts.
Ken Rockwell never starts, he continues
Came across this old post and had my best laugh for ages..

Rising temps bring more bees to the Valley
PHOENIX (KSAZ) - As the temps go up, so do the chances of seeing these guys...
"Well, bees like the spring time, that's when the flowers bloom and the nectar starts flowing and the activity just skyrockets," Dave Petersen said.
Dave Peterson, head of the Arizona Beekeepers Organization, says even though many fear the sting, bees are incredibly important to us and the environment.
"When a bee stings ya... pumps that venom into you," he said. "Just to show you, in one wee's time... that's all they do is make beeswax and honey."
Dave says caring for bees is easy because they do all of the work.
"These bottom two boxes are the brew boxes, that's generally where the eggs are laid and some honey," he said.
If you find yourself in a swarm of bees, even though it may be hard, keep calm and don't panic.
"A lot of people, their tendency is to go whap!" he said. "Back away."

A Phase I Dose-Escalation Study of the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Vitamin E δ-Tocotrienol Following Single Dose Administration in Healthy Subjects
Vitamin E tocotrienols have been shown to exhibit cancer-preventive activities in
preclinical studies. Vitamin E tocotrienols are composed of α-, β-, δ-, and γ-tocotrienols.
The investigators preclinical studies indicate that δ-tocotrienol possesses the most potent
antitumor activity against pancreatic cancer. It is believed that this micronutrient may
have a role in the prevention of pancreatic cancer in healthy participants who are at
increased risk of developing the disease.
Allocation: Non-Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Prevention
Number of Participants With Adverse Events
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Vitamin E δ-Tocotrienol and to determine the minimally effective dose (MED) or maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Vitamin E δ-Tocotrienol administered once. Safety will be assessed by standard clinical findings and laboratory tests. Toxicity grade is defined by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE)v.4.0. Ninety-five percent confidence intervals may be calculated for selected safety and exploratory variables.

Claiming attendance rewards

Suggestions, Feedback, and Requests
Attendance events, which are shared among all the characters on the account (per world), give many rewards. Usually a new one every day. It is not required to claim each reward on the day it is earned. However, it is required to claim them in order: you can't get Day 2's reward before claiming Day 1's, even if you've already got stamps up to day 7.
Compare this to events like the Rocket Booster currently running, or the Artifact Hunt and Steamed Bun events we had recently: they also have a new reward every day, they also allow for claiming the rewards later than the day they were earned, and they are also shared throughout the account (per world). The difference is that these events allow for claiming the rewards out of order. You can claim Day 10's reward (assuming you've amassed enough points) before claiming Day 1's.
The rewards for both kinds of event expire, so unless I have an immediate use for them, I generally postpone claiming them until the last day.
The ability to claim the rewards out of order, allows for claiming all the rewards I want on character A, and then switching to character B and claiming all the rewards I want on that. It also allows for claiming the rewards I do have immediate use for right when I earn them, and leaving the rest for later. In short, this method is far more convenient than the attendance method of claiming them in the order of the days.
So, I suggest that attendance rewards behave like point-accumulation event rewards: allow claiming any reward for a day that has a stamp on it, even if the rewards for "earlier" attendance days have not been claimed yet.

Keeping all events in the future that requires players to claim their rewards on their terms is absolutely within the realms of possibility!
We'll suggest this and once we hear back we'll see what can be done.

Quick Question About MultiSite
So I am using this on multisite and I was wondering why the setting pages are displayed on each sub-site when I have it network activated and the settings are visible in the network administration.
Few questions:
- Can site admins (Not network) view and edit these settings?
- If I edit only the network settings for W3 Total Cache and enable caching, will it be enabled and run on all sub-sites?
- If I am using S3 and CloudFront, will it work using the same bucket if it does need to be configured for each site?
- If the network settings work for all sub-sites, can I use S3 and CloudFront (Same bucket)?
- Does this work with a subdomain instal using WPMU Domain Mapping?
- What settings do you recommend for using this with BuddyPress and bbPress?
If anyone can answer any of these questions that would be greatly appreciated!

It's no surprise that Alicia Keys son, Egypt, is a popular kid.
Keys and Swizz Beatz' eldest child turned 6 years old on Oct. 14 and celebrated his big day with his closest friends and family.
Talking to E! News at Keep a Child Alive's 13th Annual Black Ball in New York last night, the singer gushed about her son's birthday party, telling us, "His birthday was great—he has a lot of friends, it's really scary."
Luckily Mom and Dad have the space to entertain! But it sounds as though Egypt is quite the sociable first-grader.
Keys added, "I don't know how he's ever going to not have a lot of friends."
Meanwhile, we wanted to know if she's offered up any parenting tips for her fellow Voice coach Adam Levine, who welcomed daughter Dusty Rose Levine into the world last month with wife Behati Prinsloo.
Michael Muller/NBC
"I am so excited for him!" Keys exclaimed.
The singer—who was in a great mood at the star-studded event, which raised $2 million for children and families affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa and India—revealed that she spent a lot of time backstage with Levine and Prinsloo and that "they are so loving."
And she does have a few words of advice for Adam: "Get ready man, you think you've ever been tired before?"
Prinsloo now "has two kids, him and the baby," Keys laughed, making us realize that Blake Shelton might not be the only one who loves to amiably torture Levine on the set of The Voice.

How CoolChip Got $500K from Peter Thiel's Founders Fund: A Salsa Story
It's rare that chips and salsa lead to a startup funding deal. But this isn't your average startup, and I'm not talking about the usual kind of chips and salsa.
CoolChip Technologies, a Boston-area tech startup looking to make data centers more energy-efficient, raised $500,000 in seed funding earlier this month. What the company didn't reveal, however, was that the money comes from Founders Fund, the San Francisco venture firm started by PayPal co-founders Peter Thiel, Ken Howery, and Luke Nosek. What's more, there is a bit of controversy and intrigue around the startup's technology.
Here's the story behind the financing deal. It begins with CoolChip CEO William Sanchez, an MIT lifer (undergrad, master's, and PhD just weeks away) originally from the Bronx, who started the company in 2010. But long before that, Sanchez discovered salsa dancing as a sophomore in college and says it kept him sane while he adjusted to life in Boston. Over the years, he has kept it up and even formed a salsa teaching and performance company. He says he still dances about twice a month.
Why is this important? Because one of his good friends from salsa, Gleb Chuvpilo (a fellow MIT techie), used to work with Peter Thiel on a few different ventures over the years. For the uninitiated, Thiel—in addition to being PayPal's former CEO—was Facebook's first outside investor. In the interim, he founded a global hedge fund (Clarium Capital Management), helped start an analytics and data visualization software firm (Palantir Technologies), and more recently set up a fellowship to encourage college kids to drop out of school and start new businesses (20 Under 20). Chuvpilo worked with Thiel on finance at Palantir and managed portfolio risks at Clarium Capital.
So when Thiel visited MIT last spring to give a talk at the Stata Center, Chuvpilo and Sanchez signed up to be his "secret service" and guide him around campus. Thiel came to town along with Derik Pridmore, then a Founders Fund principal (also an MIT alum). Sanchez met Thiel, but he talked more with Pridmore, and the two stayed in touch about CoolChip's ideas and business prospects—more on that below—after the visit.
After a few months of meetings, phone calls, and due diligence, Sanchez and CoolChip co-founder Steven Stoddard (another MIT techie) flew out to the West Coast to meet with Founders Fund about CoolChip; their most recent trip was in February. Bruce Gibney is the Founders Fund partner on the deal. (Not to be outdone by his fellow partners, Gibney was an early investor in Confinity, which became, you guessed it, PayPal.)
Of his new investors, Sanchez says, "They get it. The data center efficiency space is really big." But, he says, "It took a new concept to get them in."
At this point, it would be helpful to explain what CoolChip actually does. The company is commercializing what it claims is a better cooling system for computer chips. The idea is to use a new kind of air-based system (not liquid, which tends to be more complex and expensive) coupled to a heat-conduction layer, which stays in contact with the chip. CoolChip has customers already, mostly in the gaming industry, but it is aiming eventually to help cool servers more efficiently in data centers—a huge and growing problem worldwide.
The company's prototype is a 4-inch-diameter contraption that it calls a "kinetic cooler" (see photo, left). When the blades on top spin, they create turbulent air flow, with higher air speeds than that of traditional fans, to dissipate the heat. The net result is that the device "uses surface area more effectively" to cool a chip, Sanchez says. "Not only do we get a big jump in performance"—more heat rejection, less noise, and smaller form factor than traditional heat sinks and fans—"but we got to where we are with the basic economics in mind. We have to make it competitive," he says.
In case you want a deeper dive, the theory of the device is rooted, in part, in Navier-Stokes equations, advanced fluid dynamics, and thermal conduction. (If that sounds a bit like a flux capacitor, well, I didn't build the thing.)
Sanchez says the company's new funding will be used for expanding engineering operations and product development such as integrating better materials, as well as for building up intellectual property. CoolChip says it has patent agreements with MIT and Sandia National Laboratories for the technology and is in the process of transacting the licenses.
Which brings us to a bit of controversy. Last May, the startup won the $200,000 MIT Clean Energy Prize. I won't rehash it all here, but a dispute ensued over CoolChip's rights to the technology and whether the company misrepresented its IP position in the competition; the case was resolved (at least from MIT's perspective) in the company's favor earlier this month.
CoolChip has been based at Geek Offices in Cambridge, MA, but is moving to Boston (near South Station) in the next month or so. Sanchez points out a number of cleantech-related companies that are headquartered in that part of town, including Altaeros Energies, Cambrian Innovation, EnerNOC, FastCAP Systems, OnChip Power, OsComp Systems, and other startups in the Greentown Labs space.
It's still early, but what's the biggest challenge for CoolChip? Getting its dance card punched quickly, says Sanchez. "If we stagnate, we don't stand a chance."

Pack, troop 159 receives religious awards
Bishop Arthur Serratelli of Paterson presided over The Catholic Committee on Scouting Annual Scouting Awards, at a mass celebrated at St. Phillip the Apostle Church in Clifton. At the mass, Andrew Holm, Alex Benedetto and Shane Lucas, Boy Scouts from Troop 159, received the Ad Altare Dei award. Deacon Dave Cedrone, Troop 159 charter representative, was presented with the St. George award. The St. George award is awarded to adults in the scouting program who have rendered outstanding service to the church through scouting. "Deacon Dave" started Pack 159 at Our Lady Queen of Peace Church in Hewitt nearly 30 years ago. When he is not helping out the scouts at both the Troop and Pack level, Cedrone teaches religion classes at Paterson Diocese scout retreats.

I never thought of myself as a MILF but the idea of other people thinking that way about me certainly thrilled me. My husband and I intended to spend a weekend binge watching a television show but we got distracted by a documentary on swinging and it turned us on so much we spent the first night in bed together. The next day, before I could really figure things out, we were arranging to go to a sex party at a mansion! I couldn't believe how much I wanted it even though I was nervous as hell. I had my first lesbian sex ever and slept with a complete stranger.

Green Dragon
The story of two men from very different backgrounds who connect after the Vietnam War through their guilt over past deeds.
Green DragonStarring Swayze Patrick and Don Duong
Green Dragon Starring Forest Whitaker and Patrick Swayze
Timothy Bui's debut feature film, Green Dragon, explores the crossroads between refugees and the officials in charge of ushering them into a foreign land. Starring acting veterans Forest Whitaker and Patrick Swayze alongside Duong Don and Trung Nguyen, Bui's film explores the emotional convictions in the midst of great social upheaval.
In 1975, as the war in Vietnam finally draws to a close, a number of Vietnamese refugees seeking new homes in the United States find themselves housed at the Camp Pendleton Marine base in California, where Sgt. Jim Lance (Patrick Swayze) is put in charge of their care. While there, he comes meets Tai (Duong Don), previously a translator for the U.S. army during the war. Drawn together by their emotional scars from the war, the two form a bond that transcends their backgrounds, bridges gaps between their respective friends and family, and bring collaboration within their newfound community.

Universities nationwide are racing to lure top biotech scientists and research dollars, resources that could fuel one of this century's...
SAN FRANCISCO — Universities nationwide are racing to lure top biotech scientists and research dollars, resources that could fuel one of this century's most promising industries.
Perhaps nowhere is the outcome more crucial than in the bicoastal battle pitting Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology against Stanford and the University of California, San Francisco.
The prize goes well beyond bragging rights. Billions in government research dollars are up for grabs. Schools could earn millions in royalties paid by biotech startups licensing campus lab discoveries. Those startups — often launched in a university's back yard — could create thousands of high-paying jobs for executives, attorneys and other professionals churning out cancer drugs, pest-free crops and other biotech goods.

"It's really a race between Thoroughbreds," said Peter Pellerito, a consultant to the Biotechnology Industry Organization trade group. The pace is picking up:
MIT just installed new President Susan Hockfield, the first neuroscientist to lead a school primarily run by engineers for the past 50 years. She immediately threw down biotech's gauntlet. "MIT can and must lead in this essential new field-of-all-fields," she said in her inaugural address in May.
National Institutes of Health Research grants to state institutions:
1. California: $3.62 billion
2. Massachusetts: $2.27 billion
3. New York: $1.97 billion
4. Maryland: $1.42 billion
5. Pennsylvania: $1.39 billion
6. Texas: $1.15 billion
7. North Carolina: $985 million
8. Washington: $815 million
9. Ohio: $692 million
10. Illinois: $690 million

Harvard , under business-savvy President Lawrence Summers, launched a multimillion-dollar stem-cell research program last year. Summers picked a scientist, Steven Hyman, as Harvard's provost, the top academic officer.
The University of California crowed last month when officials decided to base California's new $3 billion embryonic stem-cell research program near UCSF's developing life-sciences campus. The program approved by voters in November raised fears nationwide that California would use it to poach scientists.
Stanford announced in May that two scientists — one from Harvard, the other from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor — are joining its Institute for Cancer/Stem Cell Biology and Medicine this fall. The school, an hour south of San Francisco, said the scientists are coming partly because of California's abundant stem-cell research dollars.
Stem-cell research, while controversial, is emerging as a promising area of biotech discovery.
Stem cells can become almost any specialized cell in the body. That means they can be induced to become cells with special functions, such as beating cells of the heart muscle.
The academic contest comes as states nationwide scramble for a slice of a sector looming as a big source of economic growth. The industry, started 30 years ago, has mostly been a money-loser.
But recent advances in human stem-cell and genetics research spur hopes that biotech is closer to cures for spinal-cord injuries and other maladies. That could transform biotech into a profit machine just as states are leaning more on universities for help in boosting their economies.
"The heat is on, especially at the research universities," said George Keller, a university consultant and former chairman of the University of Pennsylvania's higher-education program.
Biotech clusters
Cambridge, Mass., and the San Francisco Bay Area are home to a combined 1,000 biotechs and 100,000 biotech workers — the United States' biggest clusters.
Many, including leaders Genentech in South San Francisco and Biogen Idec and Genzyme in Cambridge, trace their births to nearby universities.
"It's a real cauldron of activity," Hockfield said.
Bulldozers in San Francisco stir up dust at the University of California's 43-acre Mission Bay campus, where nearby office buildings are planned in the next 15 years for biotechs that could employ 5,000 workers.
At $1.5 billion, it's the United States' biggest university biomedical expansion, UCSF says. A centerpiece is QB3, a joint venture between UCSF and sister UC campuses in Berkeley and Santa Cruz.
QB3, with a $100 million building budget, will combine 1,500 scientists from biology to computer science to physics aiming to solve medical mysteries. Executive director Regis Kelly, a neuroscientist, moved into QB3's new office last month.
Turning from a view of glittering San Francisco Bay, he points to a room that will house 2,000 computer servers. Together, they could slash the time researchers spend in early drug development, a period accounting for a chunk of the often-$1 billion cost of developing a single new drug, Kelly says.
He doesn't hesitate when asked about the Broad Institute, a joint venture of Harvard and MIT similar to QB3.
"The Broad is our major competition," he says.
Broad, launched last year with a $100 million gift from Los Angeles entrepreneur Eli Broad, has 400 researchers and other employees from the schools and affiliated hospitals pursuing cancer cures.
Cancer's Achilles' heel
For example, scientists are hunting for what Broad calls cancer's "Achilles' heel" — genes that cancers need to survive. Cataloging genes could speed discovery of cures.
Universities have long been engines of innovation, exploring science too dicey for even the bravest startups, said Michael Lytton, general partner at Oxford Bioscience Partners, a venture-capital firm investing in biotech startups.
MIT Provost Robert Brown compares his school's role in advancing the biotech industry in Massachusetts to Stanford's in the evolution of Silicon Valley. "This is the address to be," he said.
Hockfield wants to keep it that way. Her advocacy comes as the state fears losing biotechs to California, as it did with computer development in the 1980s.
"At MIT, we will do our part to make sure that this process does not repeat itself," Hockfield told the Massachusetts Biotechnology Council last month in one of her first speeches since being inaugurated.
MIT and other schools guard billions in government research money flowing to biotech and other "life sciences" that combine engineering, biology, math and other disciplines.
Last year, life sciences accounted for 54 percent of the $54.1 billion in federal research spending, up from 41 percent in 1994.
A measure of that shift: MIT, with about $1 billion in research grants, for the first time got more from the National Institutes of Health in 2003 than from its longtime patron, the Defense Department. "Last year, it blew through the roof," Brown says.
Potential pitfalls
Still, for all its potential benefits to schools, biotech poses political and financial risks.
Human embryonic stem-cell research is opposed by many social conservatives who compare it to abortion because it often destroys embryos.
Harvard collided with Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney in May when he unsuccessfully sought to limit legislation boosting stem-cell work at the school and elsewhere.
There are campus politics, too. Many Harvard professors are upset about Summers' leadership as he pushes deeper into science. The former Treasury secretary lost a rare no-confidence vote by the arts and sciences faculty three months ago, partly because of his remarks about the suitability of science as a career for women.
At Stanford, former professor James Clark, a co-founder of Netscape Communications, withdrew $60 million of his promised $150 million gift for an initiative, Bio-X, to protest restrictions President Bush imposed on federal funding of embryonic stem-cell research.
Started in 1998, Bio-X combines faculty from across campus in computer science, physics and other fields.
The newest participants will probably include Stefan Heller of Harvard and Michael Clarke of the University of Michigan, the two scientists coming this fall.
They hope to tap some of California's $300 million in annual stem-cell-research money in the next 10 years. Heller studies how stem cells might be turned into sound-sensing cells as a possible cure for deafness. Clarke studies the role of stem cells in breast cancer.
Financial risks loom when schools pursue new disciplines, hoping to generate more research and other income.
Harvard, in Cambridge, is developing a new campus in nearby Allston, on the Boston side of the Charles River, that will have a heavy science focus. It's a project the school compares to UCSF's Mission Bay, which Summers has toured.
Harvard's Hyman, hired in 2001 from the National Institutes of Health, says the school wants more "useful collaborations with industry."
But conceding that closer corporate ties are controversial, he says Harvard is committed to research driven by faculty and student interest and not solely "by the pursuit of commercial gain."
Critics such as professor Gary Rhoades at the University of Arizona worry that schools cozying up to industries will be ethically compromised in the pursuit of riches. A scientist with a corporate consulting deal might be less willing to publish research that could be useful to other scientists.
Moreover, schools with fewer resources than an MIT or a Stanford might copy their pricey biotech investments, then raise tuition to pay for them.
"We play follow the leader," said Rhoades, who co-authored a book on the subject last fall, "Academic Capitalism and the New Economy."
That might mean following UCSF, where the QB3 program has been charged by lawmakers with boosting California's economy by retaining biotechs and nurturing new ones. That underlines the pressure public universities shoulder in a 21st century driven by biology.
QB3 chief Kelly says private schools such as MIT, Harvard and Stanford can bide their biotech time.
"They don't have to worry about hustling," he said. "I like to hustle."

It sits on a little over 1-½ acres and is comprised of a softball field, a playslab with two basketball standards, a spray feature, and a playground with a sandbox. While there is no structured programming taking place at this location, we invite you to check out our great programs at nearby Hermosa Park. History Greenebaum Park was the last of the thirteen parks created by the Northwest Park District, one of 22 park commissions consolidated into the Chicago Park District in 1934. The Northwest Park District purchased 1.75 acres for the park in 1931, at the request of the Tripp Avenue Improvement Club. Due to financial constraints, no park improvements were made until after the Chicago Park District took jurisdiction. In 1953, the Chicago Park District officially designated the site Greenebaum Park in honor of Henry Greenebaum (1833-1914), a 19th-century civic leader. A Chicago banker and real estate developer, Greenebaum was known as "the father of Humboldt Park." Greenebaum actively promoted the creation of the three original Chicago Park systems. Greenebaum served two terms as a member of the West Park Commission after its formation in 1869. He also served one term on the City Council, where he headed the finance committee.

Police said a friend of Pierce's called 911 about 2 a.m. Tuesday and said the 19-year-old athlete was breathing strangely and couldn't be awakened at her off-campus apartment. She was taken to Tallahassee Memorial Hospital, where she died.
Preliminary results from an autopsy indicated that Pierce, who was the tallest player on the team at 6-foot-5, died because of a ruptured aorta that was caused by an aneurysm, which may have been caused by the hereditary disorder, Marfan syndrome.

What Vintage series would be complete without an ultra-versatile and simple to use drive pedal? The Carl Martin DC Drive Overdrive Guitar Effects Pedal is just that! Besides the typical Level, Tone and Drive knobs, Carl Martin has smartly added a clean boost after the drive section, and a Regular/Fat switch to the DC Drive. In Regular mode, the drive is crisp and clear, suitable for anything that calls for old-school drive. Switch over to Fat and the drive gets thicker with a lot more gain, much more modern.
Anyone who knows the Carl Martin line is familiar with his Clean Boost, a bump-up in signal volume that can be used either with your clean or overdriven sounds. The result is a multi-use pedal that allows you to have a variety of rhythm and solo volumes at your feet. Like the rest of the Vintage line, the DC Drive overdrive pedal comes in that cool retro diecast housing with the equally cool Carl Martin graphics.
What started as a simple string and pedal sales catalog has grown exponentially over the past thirty years. The early days were a time where catalogs didn't have much of a presence in the industry, but what began as a college dorm room operation grew rapidly. In 1986 we moved to a full product offering and 64-page catalog, which over the years has grown to 162 pages. Join the AMS family and get your free catalog now!

Malaysian bourse urged to alter rulesOctober 2010
Asian asset managers are pushing Malaysia's stock exchange to amend its listing requirements to include CSR considerations.

Unanswered: How to track the audit in column level in a table in Db2.
I'm going to use the audit facility in DB2 to keep track of the user access. I wanted to keep track only for few columns in a table. Not to all the columns available in a table. So, how I can define/control it in a column level in DB2 rather than Table Level. Is there any option or audit policy need to be defined in Administrator Level. Please advise.
Thank you for your help in advance.

Leading students abroad sets you apart on campus and opens endless opportunities for students. Recruiting travelers is the first step in making this happen. Our Program Coordinators talk with professors and administrators every day to find ways to make recruitment as successful, and as easy, as possible. Here are 5 tried and true tips from our expert Program Coordinators to help you share the experience of a lifetime with your students:
1. Share Your Passion: Students look to the Group Leader when making the decision to study abroad. Before you talk with students or host an information meeting, take a moment to remember what got you excited to lead students abroad and why it's important to you. Passion is contagious. Your students will pick up on your excitement and will be inspired to see it for themselves on your program.
2. Dream Big & Invite More: Follow the "rule of ten": determine your goal group size and multiply that number by ten. That's the number of students you should be talking to on campus, inviting to information meetings, and sending regular email or text reminders about discounts and deadlines. It doesn't take a lot of time to add a few names to your invite list, but it makes a big difference!
3. Talk. Talk. Talk: This tip seems easy, but it's effectiveness is often overlooked in our busy day-to-days. 86% of students that traveled with us said they learned about the program from a word of mouth conversation with a professor or friend. Whether it's talking about your program in every class, visiting other faculty members' classes, or asking a team of colleagues to help you spread the word, promoting your program by word of mouth is a must for building your group.
4. Time Waits for No One: Just like with homework, students wait right up to the deadline to enroll. Instead of (anxiously) waiting until the last minute to know what your group will look like, set early benchmark deadlines along the way. Align them to fall just after campus vacations and holidays—that way students can talk with their families in person during the break and feel confident enrolling by the deadline you've set.
5. Know Your Resources: We believe that every student deserves the chance to study abroad, and that's why we support our travelers in making it happen. Discounts, monthly payment plans, fundraising tools and scholarships are just some examples of how we help students finance their program. Ask your Program Coordinator for more details and start showing your students the world!

Twitter first, then blog. Which might seem inconsequential but there's an interesting dynamic there. I don't want to get all Match.com on you but getting […]

One of the two co-investigating judges of Cambodia's UN-backed war crimes court, Frenchman Marcel Lemonde, said Thursday he was quitting his job at the tribunal to focus on other projects.
The announcement came as the court indicted four former senior Khmer Rouge leaders for genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.
Lemonde said he had joined the tribunal in 2006, intending to stay for just three years but he had ended up serving for four.
He said he was proud with what he had achieved in his role for the tribunal, despite frequent difficulties, but that he was now "passing the baton to someone else". He plans to leave in early December.
"I have other longstanding plans that I cannot now ignore. I have informed (co-investigating) judge You Bunleng and my colleagues and so I would like to move on with my other plans."
Bunleng said his colleague's departure had not surprised him because he always knew Lemonde would only stay for a limited number of years.
He thanked the Frenchman for his commitment and for staying "with us until the closing order was finalised."
He added that he would work with Lemonde's successor to decide how to proceed with a possible third case against other former Khmer Rouge cadres.

How to Shop for Your First Kayak
The Hudson - History and Habitat
Rules of the Nautical Road -- for Kayakers
Don't interfere with commercial shipping or commercial fishing.
Don't paddle along channels. Channels are for deeper draft vessels, so we kayakers should minimize our presence there. Cross channels at ninety degrees as quickly as possible. Be aware that kayaks and their human cargo may not be visible to the operators of larger vessels, and we should therefore give right of way to all other boats when inside or outside of channels. It's important to remember that boats are not required to stay in a channel, even though they usually will, so watch out for them at all times. Channels are created to assure boats of a given depth. Many local boaters know when the tide is deep enough to go outside channels. Try to get eye contact with oncoming boaters. Keep paddling as your range decreases: a moving paddle is far easier to see than one that is still, even if it is raised. You might raise your paddles high and wave them to attract attention if need be. Light color paddles help with visibility. To determine whether an oncoming boat will pass in front of, behind you, or is on a collision course, face your bow toward oncoming boat (when far off) and watch how it changes course.
How To Cross a Channel
When in a group, cross as a single unit, or pod. Don't let the group spread out. This will help the operator of an oncoming vessel to avoid the group. The lead and sweep boats should be within a couple of boat lengths of the rest of the group. If the group is large, assign end boats so the group does not spread out too wide on either side. At busy channels, a group might have to wait for a break in passing traffic. When waiting, have all members of the group lay down their paddles so the passing boaters will know they have the right of way. Just as in automobile traffic, one key to safety is to act predictably. Allow any oncoming vessels to pass, and then cross astern of them.
Large vessels move deceivingly quickly. A vessel one mile away, traveling at fifteen knots, will arrive in four minutes. If the channel you are crossing (paddling at a fast three knots) is one half mile wide, it will take you ten minutes to cross. In those ten minutes, the oncoming vessel will travel two and a half miles. If your corossing is to be a safe one, that vessel must be a minimum of two and one half miles away. Also, don't cross too close behind large vessels. Beware of turbulence and any debris kicked up by the vessel.
Cross at right angle to the channel, so that your presence in the channel will be as brief as possible. Move as swiftly as possible, but be sure to maintain the group as a single unit. Know where the shipping lane boundaries are. Notice the navigational aids: use the channel markers as references when crossing. If you cross from buoy to buoy you will know exactly when you have entered and exited the channel. Be aware of tides and currents. How will they affect you when crossing? Will the current cause you to drift into the channel while you are waiting for passing traffic? Will you need to ferry glide to your destination? Look at the buoys. Are they leaning? What does that tell you about the current? Remember, don't interfere with less maneuverable boats. We are out playing, while the commercial vessels are working. Show them respect.
Ferries operate on schedules. Try to learn their arrival and departure times. Stay out of their way. Ferries will give one blast when they leave the bulkhead. If you are behind them when they blow their horn it is too late to get out of the way. Ferries can also throw out a large amount of turbulent water even when tied up to a slip. Get familiar with the routes of the different ferries and other ships before paddling in areas near their route, e.g., the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, crossing the Hudson River between N.J. to the Battery, or paddling along Manhattan's west side.
Channel Markers
Remember: Red, Right, Return. In the channel, when heading into a lesser body of water (returning from the ocean) or into an anchorage, Red Nun buoys are always on the right, and Can (green or sometimes black) buoys are always on the left.

Most of my stash is Sunbabys and I also have several BGs for daycare. I don't have any issues with either and can't notice a difference in the quality as far as leaks or such
I'm sorry you're having bad luck with them. We're they bought used? Or at the same time from the site? If so I agree it may be a bad batch. I've heard 1-2 other people that ordered during manufacturing changes that had issues. I'd try to email Sun Pei about it. She is very fair and often will trade in dipes if there are manufacturing problems.
