At the Wording Desk
Ah, champagne — cork popped, amber elixir effused in glassy flute, soon sipped to be savored by lingual papillae. The spumous jig of fizz upon the tasting tongue, the golden-bubbled froth that, cresting sub uvula upon the pendent margin of the palate, cries, "Tonsils, stand aside, that down this rosy gullet spumescent foam may flow, the straw-hued ferment of a thousand suns."
The ever effervescent champers, nose-tickling and tastebud-delighting bubbly, takes its name from a province of eastern France, not too far from Paris.
She of the little black dress, elfin gamin, rococo Coco Chanel herself said champagne delighted her only in two life modes — when she was in love and when she wasn't.
The quaint anachronism of rigorous grammatical gender, so burdensome in French, decrees that the wine is masculine, le champagne, and the vine-nurturing yet poor loam of the province itself is feminine, la Champagne.
How was Province of Champagne named?
The victorious Roman general Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa (63 – 12 BCE) (he won the Battle of Actium, defeating Mark Antony and keeping the aspy Cleopatra out of Roman hair) is said to have built the first Roman military road that terminated at Durocortorum, the principal town of a Gallic tribe named the Remi.
The Romans began the names that became in English Rheims or Reims, champagne headquarters of France and still capital city of Champagne. Roman army victualers and sutlers, it is said in legend, brought the first grape vines, bagged on donkeys, kept watered on the bumpy journey by slaves, provisioning outposts of the empire with rough Roman vines from Campania in Italy and planting the viniferous creepers in the perfect chalky substrates around Rheims where, after hundreds of years of hand-rubbed hybrids and bee-blessed crossings, the vines eventually blossomed forth with grapes that would enable the making of champagne.
By the sixth century we have a written record calling the area Campania Remensis, Latin 'the countryside around Rheims.'
Roman officials and soldiers posted to the area were perhaps reminded, by the vineyards and fertility of Rheims, of their native Italy and the fertile plains of Campania Felix south of Rome. In Latin campania means 'land of fields' from Latin campus 'field' but with the implicit sensory addendum, the developed meaning, of 'country abounding in fields, country that consists therefore of fertile, level plains.'
Some translate the Latin adjective felix as 'fortunate' so that Campania Felix might mean "Lucky Old Campania! Wah-hoo!" I'm afraid not. The root in felix is *fe which suggests always fecundity, teeming uberousness. The developed meaning of lucky or fortunate comes later. You were lucky because you experienced fecundity: your fields were golden with grain; your cattle calved; your ewes lambed; your wife was a multipara.
The *fe root shows up in words like fertile, female, and fetus. Cats litter many kittens and so their Latin name was feles, felis. Such a feline has a name, feles, one that means literally in Latin 'she who bears young.' Thus Felix the Feline, with his doubly propitious moniker would probably be father of hundreds of kittens!
Campania was felix to the Romans because, for hundreds of years, in Campanian fields grew all the grain that became bread for the city of Rome, at least until the Roman capture of Egypt allowed the import of Nile-watered wheat.
The Romans applied the word campania to other European flatlands. For example, the central plain of Hungary, the puszta, dry grassland once teeming with cattle, was in postclassical Latin Campania Pannonica.
Brief History of the Bubbly Itself
Cloudy, non-descript red wine had been made in Champagne for more than a thousand years by the only oenologists of the time, monks who needed income from the wine to operate their monasteries. This first Champagne wine had no bubbles and no reputation except as the crudest vin de table. The first sparkling wine from Champagne did not appear until the turn of the 18th century. The French monk Dom Pierre Pérignon did not invent champagne but he did introduce various production and bottling improvements. It is thought that he might have been the first to keep the cork from blowing its place during fermentation by means of a wire collar secured to the neck of the champagne bottle.
Thanks to clever vintners, very early in its bubbling career, Rheims' champagne became associated with French royalty. For centuries, from Clovis onward, all French kings were crowned in the Cathedral of Rheims, about a hundred miles from Paris. It was the Westminster Abbey of France. Fleurs-de-lis stitched deftly into cloth-of-gold twinkled like stars upon royal shoulders. Stone cathedral aisles bore the light tred of slippered velvet and the stomp of boots of French leather supple as butter. Afterwards the new king's health was drunk with Champagne's wines. Other European potentates attending French coronations took news of champagne and samples back to their own baroque banquets and regal feastings. Later, as the French middle classes grew richer, they looked for visible symbols of wealth to flaunt and found that greed could be voluptuous, found one perk that could be swallowed — champagne.
What about the Word Campaign?
As early as the 16th century, Italian used campagna in the military sense of army operations in open country (where most pitched battles of European history took place). Campagna stemmed from Latin Campania. French probably borrowed this sense and form to give campagne 'field of battle.' Metaphorical extension of the word to describe a political field of battle as in 'election campaign' came later in French and English, rising in frequency of use throughout the 19th century.
The Oxford English Dictionary has this useful note in its Second Edition, 1989: "The name arose in the earlier conditions of warfare, according to which an army remained in quarters (in towns, garrisons, fortresses, or camps) during the winter, and on the approach of summer issued forth into the open country (nella campagna, dans la campagne) or 'took the field', until the close of the season again suspended active operations."
Ding-Dong Campanile
And we'll end on a tangential note indeed. Someone vetting this column just asked me if the Italian word for belltower, campanile, and its root campana, Italian for 'bell,' are related to the words above. Well, according to ancient wordhounds they are. Isidore of Seville states that the first bell foundry in Italy was in the city of Nola in Campania, as was the first belfry in a church and the first bell cast and gonged. There is no proof of such claims.
Saint Isidore of Seville (560 – 636 CE), a bishop, was the author of one of the most popular books of word lore ever written. From the time of its first appearance in the 630s CE, his Etymologies has never been out of print. Isidore's derivations belong to his time; many are obsolete or wrong; most are associative folk etymologies similar to the multiple errors in the Old Testament where the original writers in Hebrew made wild guesses about word relationships based on whether the words sounded the same. But, for the careful historian, Isidore has been recently translated in this new century and offers a trove of lore, spurious indeed but believed by the late classical world to be fact.
Let 2017 be your annus champagnensis!

Generally, Web servers are used to download Web pages through the Internet. In contrary to popular belief, not only big companies can create a Web server since people staying at home or even those with small businesses can set up their own Web server with almost no cost at all, maybe just a higher electricity bill.
Materials Needed:
- Web server application
- My SQL Database
- phpMyAdmin
- files for the website
- Notepad or other text editor
- My SQL Database
- phpMyAdmin
- files for the website
- Notepad or other text editor
Step 1
Make sure that you have all the applications needed to create a Web server. Your Web server will not go live if one is missing.
Step 2
Prepare the Web server application first. You can use the Abyss Web Server X1 for this. If you have no Abyss Web server program, you can simply download a copy for free.
Step 3
Abyss allows you to install different Web server components in one sitting. These components are the Abyss Web Server, SSL Support, ASP .NET Support, Documentation, and the Start Menu shortcut. Select all these and click 'Next'.
Step 4
The next window will ask for the destination folder of Abyss. Its default location is the Program Files. You can change that if you want. Press the 'Install' button when you are finished determining the location. Wait until it is done installing.
Step 5
Install the PHP 5. You can also download a copy of this program. Just like the Abyss Web server, you should select its location. Hit the 'Install' button and wait until it is done installing.
Step 6
Install the MySQL Database. Download a copy of this if you do not have any.
Step 7
Open the downloaded MySQL Database setup file. The Install window will appear. Click 'Next'.
Step 8

Published: Monday 15th June 2015 by The News Editor
Child protection officers are investigating one case involving "sexting" every day, National Crime Agency has disclosed.
Intervention has been required to safeguard youngsters at risk after sending nude or explicit images of themselves on social media or messaging services.
The practice has become " normal" among teenagers but can leave them vulnerable to exploitation or blackmail, the NCA said.
On average, the NCA's centre for tackling abuse, Ceop Command, receives one report a day of a child protection issue linked to sexting.
In some instances youngsters are targeted by strangers who attempt to blackmail them over images they have been tricked into taking.
Other cases involve recipients of private messages forwarding them to others or a user posting a picture of themselves on a website or social media with low privacy settings.
The NCA is today launching a campaign to give parents advice on how to respond if their child becomes involved in sexting.
Zoe Hilton, head of safeguarding at Ceop Command, said staff receive reports of "difficult and sometimes harmful" situations linked to sexting.
"We are talking about cases where sexting has led to a child protection issue," she said.
"Something that has started out as relatively innocent or normal for the young people involved has unfortunately turned into something that is quite nasty and needs intervention in order to safeguard and protect the child.
"Some of the worst examples are children sharing images of themselves and making themselves very vulnerable. That image gets into the wrong hands or that image is used to blackmail the child for further images.
"The images get into the hands of someone who then uses it to exploit the child or seek to harm or disadvantage the child in some way."
Ceop deals with cases involving boys and girls aged 13 or above. Reports are made by children, parents or teachers.
Ms Hilton said: "A lot of it doesn't lead to bad outcomes. What can happen where sexting doesn't just stay within the community of teenagers or the other person (is) it somehow gets posted up on a site, it's found by an offender, it's used then to target the young person.
"Or the young person thinks they are sending it to someone they trust and actually that person turns out to be quite exploitative and not who they think they are.
"Those are the ways that innocence around sexting and the fact that young people are doing it a lot and see it as a relatively normal thing can go wrong."
Last year reports emerged of children being warned they could face prosecution in the criminal courts for sharing graphic pictures over the internet.
Ms Hilton said there was no benefit in criminalising teenagers who take part in sexting.
She said: "I think we have to recognise that sexting is actually very normative behaviour for children and young people.
"These are kids growing up in a very image-saturated environment. They are copying what they see older young adults do."
The NCA campaign aims to help parents deal with the problem and includes a number of short animations developed following a research project involving the University of Edinburgh.
Ms Hilton said: "With smartphones and tablets, and new apps emerging all the time, this behaviour is becoming quite normal for teenagers. But i t can be alarming for mum and dad, who might not know how to help when things go wrong.
"We want to help parents and carers talk to their children about how to minimise the risks, and to make sure the right support is there if things do go wrong."
A spokesman for the NSPCC said sexting is a "huge problem" and can leave children "devastated".
" Children can send sexual images of themselves in an instant and often don't really think about the consequences," he said.
"Often it is to a girlfriend or boyfriend but these images can quickly end up being shared widely in school and online."
Police Service of Northern Ireland is currently investigating the death of 17-year-old R onan Hughes, who apparently took his own life following online bullying.
Superintendent Mike Baird said: "It is understood the schoolboy took his own life after he had been tricked into posting images on a social networking site."
Ronan, from Co Tyrone, was found dead in the Coole Road area of Coalisland on June 5.
Daniel Perry, 17, from Dunfermline in Fife, died in July 2013 after f alling victim to an alleged "sextortion" attempt, in which internet users are lured into webcam chats and then blackmailed with the footage.
The teenager is said to have believed he was talking to an American girl on Skype but was told by blackmailers that the conversations had been recorded and
would be shared with friends and family unless he paid up.
Barnardo's chief executive Javed Khan said the charity was seeing more sexting among the people it works with and called for tailored sex and healthy relationship education to be offered in all schools.
Justine Roberts, chief executive of parenting website Mumsnet, said: "No parent wants their child to be exploited, hurt or bullied online, but some adults can feel a bit bewildered by the many different apps, sites and platforms, and by web-based scenarios that just didn't occur when they were growing up.
"More hard information for both kids and parents, such as that being provided by Ceop, is always welcome as families negotiate the possibilities and pitfalls of new tech."

Lyoness Open betting tips and Fantasy Golf picksJune 8, 2015 The Scoop
Find out who could be worth a bet or including in your Fantasy Golf team this week
It was a thrilling start to June in the National Club Golfer Fantasy Golf Game with a Swedish double on the European and PGA Tours.
Not many players had Memorial Tournament winner David Lingmerth in their side but Alex Noren was a more popular choice as he claimed his second Nordea Masters title.
The top monthly team was minichidders13 who had Noren and compatriot Henrik Stenson in his side along with Jordan Spieth, Justin Rose and Hideki Matsuyama to bring in an impressive 1886 points and set the pace for the June monthly prize.
In the overall game, Viking Valdemar shot to the top of the leaderboard thanks again the the services of Noren, Speith and Dustin Johnson.

This week the European Tour heads to Austria for the Lyoness Open where home favourite Bernd Wiesberger is among the top players on show.
The world number 37 missed out in a play-off last year but has been in good form of late" A definite Fantasy Golf pick and can be backed at the bookies for a very ungenerous 5/1.
Register or make changes to your Fantasy Golf team HERE
Defending champion Mikael Lundberg had to wait six years for his third European Tour win at last year's event but may be worth an each way bet at 90/1.
Another player who did well last year is Lee Slattery.
The Englishman was also in the top 10 at last week's Nordea Masters so could be on the verge of a second European Tour victory. Odds of 55/1 look quite tempting.
Among the favourites for a Fantasy Golf pick include Chris Wood 10/1, Richie Ramsay 11/1, and Rafa Cabrera-Bello 16/1.
Register or make changes to your Fantasy Golf team HERE
All three have been in decent form recently which is the reason behind the relatively short odds and it is by no means a "stellar" field with many top players focussing on next week's US Open.
Looking a bit further down the list, Nicolas Colsaerts is a name which jumps out. He has been showing signs of a return to form and is a multiple European Tour winner.
He managed a top-10 at last week's Nordea Masters so could be a decent Fantasy Golf pick and is a 22/1 shout with the bookies.
England's Matt Fitzpatrick has been competitive in recent weeks and I have the feeling a European Tour win might not be that far away for the Sheffield lad.
The bookies are not so sure which is why odds of 60/1 look reasonably appealing to me.
Fellow Englishman Tom Murray bagged himself a top-10 in Sweden last week and is a huge outsider at 225/1.

Chlorine-rich amphiboles: interplay between amphibole composition and an evolving fluid
Kullerud, Kåre
European Journal of Mineralogy Volume 8 Number 2 (1996), p. 355 - 370
27 references
published: Apr 26, 1996
manuscript accepted: Dec 15, 1995
manuscript received: Mar 23, 1995
DOI: 10.1127/ejm/8/2/0355
ArtNo. ESP147050802017, Price: 29.00 €
Abstract Cl-rich amphibole occurs together with garnet, plagioclase and Ba-, Ti- and Cl-rich biotite in narrow shear zones in 1.8 Ga old noritic granulites in the Flakstad0y Basic Complex, Lofoten, north Norway. The granulite-facies assemblage containing plagioclase, clinopyroxene, orthopyroxene, biotite and ilmenite was partially replaced by an amphibolite-facies assemblage including Cl-rich amphibole. The amphibolite-facies assemblage was formed during shear deformation associated with the infiltration of a Cl- and Ba-rich fluid. The Cl-content of amphibole varies between 0.1 and 1.0 atom per formula unit. There are strong correlations between Cl and K, Fe, Mg, AlVI, AlIV and Si. Multivariate analysis shows that the compositional variation of amphibole can be described by one Cl-free additive component (K0.1Na0.6)A(Ca19Mg2.9Fe17Ti09A04)VI (Al1.2Si6.8)IV(OH)2 and one complexly coupled exchange component (ECA1 = Si-1.6AlIV1.6AlVI0.9Fe1.3Mg-2.1K0.4Cl1OH-1). It is inferred that the compositional variations of amphibole along the exchange vector were caused by variations in only one chemical variable of the system, namely the activity ratio afluidHCl / afluidH2O of the grainboundary fluid. One model that would account for the variations involves a fluid with an initially low activity ratio afluidHCl / afluidH2O . Formation of amphibole and biotite during interaction between the primary igneous minerals and the fluid resulted in an increase in the Cl-content of the fluid, since OH is preferentially incorporated, relative to Cl, into these minerals. When the supply of the externally derived fluid stopped, the free fluid phase was gradually consumed as a consequence of continued hydration/chloridisation reactions. This resulted in local fluid-absent conditions. The fluid-absent domains expanded until all of the fluid was consumed. The composition of amphibole reflects the composition of the last fluid in equilibrium with the mineral, i.e. the composition of the fluid immediately before the grain-boundaries were fluid-undersaturated. Thus, the variations in amphibole composition provide a pattern for how the fluid phase gradually disappeared through the rock

E.J. Hughes, Captain Malaspina Sketching the Galleries of Gabriola, mural project completed; location: Nanaimo Conference Centre.
by Cheryle Harrison
In 1938, Edward J. Hughes stood before a plastered wall and painted a panoramic scene of explorers examining the shoreline sandstone galleries of Gabriola Island. Years passed and the mural was covered with panelling, hidden from view, and generally forgotten. Eventually redevelopment plans for the Malaspina Hotel, Nanaimo, B.C., included the partial demolition and salvaging of most of the buildings structure. It was during this period that Hughes mural and four other murals were re-discovered.
In 1996, the murals were removed from the hotel and stored in a number of locations for a period of twelve years. Again, it seemed that Hughes painting would be lost to anonymity, as no new display site for this large mural could be found. Eventually in the fall of 2007, the future of this mural was redeemed, and its new location was slated for the recently constructed Nanaimo Conference Centre.
The conservation treatment stage of this project commenced only to find that the murals structure had been damaged and weakened significantly by the conditions of its long-term storage. Consequently, the initially anticipated four-month conservation and installation project extended to encompass more than one-and-a-half years. The mural measures 2.75 5.2 .216 metres (9 x 17 0.71 feet), and it is painted on a concrete wall weighing approximately eight tons. The design for the installation of this mural includes a support base and framework which integrates the mural as a part of the conference building.
The public dedication of E.J. Hughes mural, Captain Malaspina Sketching the Galleries of Gabriola, was celebrated in June 2009. Complimentary events included the screening of a documentary, educational programming, and the launching of a gallery book on Hughes that accompanied a summer long exhibition of his artwork.
The saga of the Malaspina Hotel Murals can offer insight into the fragile presence and future of our cultural heritage, as the Hughes mural project could have disappeared numerable times over the past thirteen years. This successful heritage project was possible due to the efforts and dedication of many individuals, illustrating that we are all guardians of our history. At the core of this cultural project is the artist himself, Edward Hughes, truly a source of enduring inspiration.
A book by Conserv-Arte is underway relating the tale of the E.J. Hughes Mural Conservation Project and the Malaspina Murals.

I'm finishing up filling out the Cyrillic codepage, but one thing that has been making me wonder is to what degree descenders should be homogenous.
I know that Ц and Щ can receive swash descenders but otherwise and almost always have the same as Д. But, there seems to be from what I can tell (both between wiki and the unicode charts and other fonts I've looked at) a random decision for other letters as to whether the "descender" is the sort of enlarged downward serif as in Д, this exact same shape but mirrored like Ӌ, angled more sharply and called a tail like Ӊ, a cedilla like in Ҙ, an ogonek in Ҿ, or a vertical/pointed Џ.
Do Ҙ and Ҫ get cedillas because of the round shape? What determines "tail" versus the "spike"? And are there any other letters that are distinguished only by the form of their descender (I can only think of Ң / Ӊ and Ҷ / Ӌ)

A PENSIONER was killed after "making the mistake" of allowing her drug addict grandson to live with her, jurors were told.
Prosecutor Jennifer Bain made the claim as she gave her closing speech at the trial of Garry Kane at the High Court in Dumbarton.
Kane, 41, is charged with the murder of Kathleen Milward at her home in Stonehouse, Lanarkshire, on January 3.
Loading article content
Ms Bain yesterday urged jurors to convict the ex-paratrooper of the 87-year-old's "senseless" murder.
They previously heard how Kane had been staying with his gran at the time of her death.
The advocate depute said: "Kathleen Milward made the mistake of putting a roof over her grandson's head when he had nowhere else to go, and for this she was brutally murdered."
Kane denies murder. The trial, before Judge Lord Matthews, continues.

Pavement surface friction plays an important role on highway safety, specially during the wet weather. The available surface friction may vary significantly due to weather related changes in pavement surface condition. Several past studies have examined the short-term or seasonal skid resistance variation but mostly ended with unreasonable results. The effect of long-term weather on skid resistance variation is not yet studied well. The surface friction, in terms of British Pendulum Number (BPN), of both Portland cement concrete (PCC) and asphalt concrete (AC) pavements were measured bi-weekly or monthly from February to October to determine the effect of short-term weather changes on skid resistance variation. Long Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) program data for both PCC and AC pavements were used to determine the effect of long-term weather on surface friction variation. Analysis has shown that available friction fluctuates at 0.35BPN per 1°C change in prevailing ambient or pavement surface temperature with an overall eight BPN seasonal fluctuation. Prior short-term rainfall, dry-spell, and temperature were shown to be insignificant for changes in skid resistance. Similarly, prior long-term weather was shown to be insignificant for changes in skid resistance of both AC and PCC pavements.© @ Chinese Society of Pavement Engineering.

This study evaluated the resistance of field-produced warm-mix asphalt (WMA) mixtures obtained from field sections in Manitoba, Canada, to moisture damage, reflective cracking, and permanent deformation. The project, constructed in the summer of 2010, included a side-by-side hot-mix asphalt (HMA) control section and three WMA sections in which the Advera, Evotherm 3G, and Sasobit technologies were used. The mixtures' susceptibility to moisture damage was evaluated by their unconditioned and moisture-conditioned indirect tensile strength (ITS) and dynamic modulus (|E*|) at multiple freeze-thaw cycles. All mixtures met the minimum unconditioned ITS criterion of 65 psi at 77 F and the minimum indirect tensile strength ratio of 80% after one freeze-thaw cycle. Although comparable tensile strength and |E*| ratios were observed for the mixtures after one freeze-thaw cycle, the WMA-Sasobit mixture exhibited lower resistance to moisture damage when assessed after three freeze-thaw cycles. Except for the WMA-Sasobit mixture, the WMA mixtures showed similar or higher resistance to reflective cracking when measured by means of the Texas A&M Transportation Institute overlay tester. All WMA mixtures exhibited similar resistance to permanent deformation in the flow number test at the LTPPBind 50% reliability temperature (118 F) as compared with the HMA control section. However, none of the mixtures (including the HMA) met the proposed flow number criterion for WMA. When the mixtures were tested in the flow number test at the effective pavement temperature (92 F), a different ranking for their resistance to rutting was detected. Continuous field monitoring for performance of the various sections will help in assessing any proposed criterion as well as the effectiveness of WMA mixtures in cold weather areas such as Manitoba.

This study extensively evaluated the resistance to moisture damage and thermal cracking of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures with high recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) content (up to 50%) from field sections on provincial Highway 8 between Gimli and Hnausa in Manitoba, Canada. A comparison between the properties and performance of the field-produced and laboratory-produced mixtures was also conducted and was included in this study. HMA mixtures with 50% RAP resulted in acceptable resistance to moisture damage and thermal cracking. The use of multiple freeze-thaw cycles provided a better characterization of the mixtures' resistance to moisture damage. Acceptable correlations were observed between the estimated critical temperatures from the blending chart and the measured ones from the recovered asphalt binders. Overall, laboratory-produced mixtures could be used to evaluate the relative resistance of the field-produced mixtures to moisture damage and thermal cracking.

Proceedings of the International Conference on Cold Regions Engineering | Year: 2012
Recent changes in Canada's regional climate have made historic weather and strength recovery trends less reliable predictors of when to start and end spring load restrictions (SLR) and winter weight premiums (WWP). The Manitoba Department of Infrastructure and Transportation (MIT) and FPInnovations have recently developed rational methods for starting and ending these seasonal weight programs in Manitoba. The SLR method links weather-based indices to when test pavements started to weaken, and to when their strength was substantially recovered in the spring. The analysis resulted in the implementation of a new SLR policy with starting and ending thresholds based on cumulative thawing index (CTI). The WWP method links weather-based indices to when the strength of freezing test pavements stabilized, and to when these frozen pavements began to warm and weaken in late winter. Starting and ending thresholds based on cumulative freezing index (CFI) and CTI were recommended as interim thresholds for WWP policy. © 2012 American Society of Civil Engineering.

In many parts of the world concrete (rigid) pavements have been proven to provide a longer pavement life with less maintenance and rehabilitation requirements than flexible pavements surfaced with asphalt and seals. Though commonly adopted in some Eastern Australian states, they represent only a small portion of the road network in Western Australia (WA). The aim of this article is to summarise the locations where concrete pavements are already in use in WA and to highlight some of the design and construction methods used. Historically in WA, pavements constructed using concrete have been adopted for problematic causeway locations and components of industrial pavements. Examples of concrete causeways can be found in the Gascoyne, Kimberley and Pilbara Regions. These 'pavements' have not been designed following typical concrete pavement design methods; rather structural or slab-on-grade design methods. Likewise the use of concrete pavements for industrial applications is also uncommon. Where they have been adopted the Guide to Industrial Floors and Pavements, design, construction and specification method published by the Cement and Concrete Association of Australia (CCAA) has generally been adopted. Only recently Main Roads WA has opted to utilise rigid pavements at selected new junctions in the north of the State and in the Perth metropolitan area for sections of pavement that are subjected periodically to saturated conditions. These pavements have been designed following the Austroads Design of Rigid Pavements method with joint detailing and specifications based on New South Wales (NSW) Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) requirements, with local variations. These sections include heavily trafficked junctions where jointed plain concrete pavement (PCP) was adopted as an alternative to traditional granular pavements with thin bituminous surfacings and full depth asphalt pavements in very hot climatic regions (e.g. Dampier Highway Duplication and Great Northern Highway Realignment in Port Hedland); and sections with high water table levels designed with continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) (Gateway, WA project). This article outlines the experience with concrete pavements in WA, including design and construction challenges, performance records and maintenance issues. It discusses regional traffic and environmental conditions, as well as locally available materials, explaining how they influenced the pavement design and the adaptation of construction specifications.

The more boards you buy, the better response you will get. You might want to check out the forums at 2cpu.com, I would go their first to do research on the problem. Most of the time they will have heard about the problem then follow that up with customer support. A lot of people are using Iwill, or even SuperMicro boards with great success. Like Iwill are using digital vrms and the board quality is very good. As far as customer support concerned I agree that most companies need more training in that department. I don't think I would buy another Tyan board, I got burned on a mp tiger which I am typing from now. I personally would try Supermicro, or even Iwill as I would keep my boards for many years, component quality is of the upmost importance to me. Gnu_Raiz

I finished my quiltuniversity class and did four small quilts in the process. I have already posted one of them (the purple and green one.) Now here are the rest of them. The last one, with the irises, is going to have more irises added to it in the boxes today.
I really enjoyed making these quilts. They are all in the 18'x22" range in size and are made from hand dyed or screen printed fabric. The grey quilt has a little slhibori in it and the irises are drawn in with inktense pencils. The line quilt I hand painted with thickened dye.

Perham city manager picked to lead Detroit Lakes
Perham City Manager Bob Louiseau will become Detroit Lakes' city administrator this fall.
After a day filled with interviews Saturday, the Detroit Lakes City Council moved to negotiate the hiring of Louiseau, scheduled to begin Oct. 1.
Aldermen, Mayor Larry Buboltz and Public Utilities Commission representative Mitch Wimmer spent hours Saturday interviewing five candidates for the position that will be left vacant when long-time city administrator Rich Grabow retires at the end of September.
"He's a known quantity," Buboltz said of Louiseau. "I think he can walk in on a Monday and take off."
During the interview process, Louiseau -- who served as community development director in Detroit Lakes from 1983-1990 -- said the first thing he'd like to do after beginning his job in Detroit Lakes is "spend a portion of the first month or two months, however long it takes, to visit with people in the community. Especially those in leadership."
He added he wants to get to know staff and learn more in-depth about the city's functions and facilities.
He defined his management and leadership style as "informal. I'll work with people in a one-on-one basis."
He has an open-door policy with staff and the community, he continued. He said he wants feedback so he can take the information back to the council and keep them informed.
"Look at my history. I've been able to accomplish what has been set out by the council. I try to be a person of my word," he said in the interview.
Louiseau has also served as associate planner for Arrowhead Regional Development Commission from 1975-1983. In Perham, his resume lists that he is responsible for eight department heads in police, fire, public works, liquor, resource recovery facility, library, finance and administration. He serves as executive director of the HRA and secretary/treasurer of the EDA. He manages 35 full-time and 20 part-time employees.
Deciding on Louiseau wasn't necessarily an easy decision for the council. After narrowing the field to two candidates, the men debated for some time, split evenly on the two candidates.
After discussions on taking Detroit Lakes to a higher level, leadership versus management skills and personal preferences, the council voted unanimously to support and offer Louiseau the position.
The city cannot legally require Louiseau to live within the city, but it is highly stressed in the offer. The city is kicking in a relocation allowance as well.
Louiseau and his family live in Perham. His son recently graduated from Detroit Lakes High School, he coaches Detroit Lakes youth hockey and his wife works for Minnesota State Community and Technical College in Detroit Lakes.
When asked if Louiseau was still interested in the position after a long day of interviewing, he replied, "I wouldn't be sitting here if I wasn't. This community is blessed with a lot of assets."
Following the announcement and job offer, Lousieau spoke with the Perham Enterprise-Bulletin.
"I hadn't been looking for anything, but this position opened up," Louiseau said. "It is one of the very few places I would have considered going.
"I've probably plagued the good people of Perham long enough," he laughed.
Louiseau has held the Perham post since 1990. He said he was "treated extremely well in Perham."
"I think most people would say the town has grown and prospered while I've been here. I don't take sole credit by any means, but I'd like to think I (played a small part)."
Among the advancements in the Perham community over the past 17 years:
n A "tremendous growth in housing," which probably wouldn't have occurred without the expansion of infrastructure and utilities to meet the housing need, said Louiseau.
n Perham Area Community Center expanded during those years, thanks not just to the city, Louiseau said, but an ambitious group of community leaders.
n The city-run natural gas system grew to serve a large geographic area, with 2,640 customers.
n Through the city's wellhead protection project, several key pieces of property were acquired to help protect the groundwater and the community's water sources.
n The city's sewer system has been put to maximum use, which has "supported the ability for our businesses to be competitive."
n Downtown revitalization projects, both the current Second Street project and the extensive improvements a decade ago, have helped sustain a vibrant downtown business district.
n Developments at County Road 78 and Highway 10 have furthered the city's long range plan of creating an "L-shaped" business corridor that brings people from the highway to the center of town.
"A lot of these things can't be accomplished in two, three or even five years. It takes eight, 10 years," Louiseau said. "And, you don't accomplish them alone. I just played a small role."
He said there isn't single project he'd take back and redo because each has been thought about and carefully approached.
"I always tried to do what was best for Perham for the long haul, not just the short term. Whether it was popular or not," he said. "I'm pretty darn proud to bring people through town and show what we have here. And I feel good about being part of the system."
A retirement party for Rich Grabow will be held Friday, Sept. 21, from 4 to 5:30 p.m. in city hall council chambers. A dinner and program will follow at 6 p.m. at the Detroit Country Club. The public is invited to attend.
(Louis Hoglund, publisher-editor for Perham Enterprise Bulletin, contributed to this story.)

text: Curry is one of the most loved dishes in the world. So its more than right that a game should be based around making new varieties of curry to fight monsters, right? Well in Sorcery Saga: Curse of the Great Curry God that's pretty much what you do. This is a dungeon crawler that's really hard and demands a lot of respect. The story is actually not bad and plays out well, the voice acting is really sublime and I am in love with the music and sounds heard. We play as Pupuru, a young girl with a lot of pep. We join her as she has finished at the top of her magic school and is sent to find a magic orb only to find that the org has been eaten by a rodent like Pokemon style creature all Kuu. When she reports this to her elder, she gets thrown out of school. We then meet her friend who is a curry shop owner and find that a giant curry chain is opening soon. To save our friends curry shop we must go in search of magic ingredients to form the best curry dishes and lure customers in. To stop her, the owner of the chain and a demonic prince who is in love with Pupuru, tries to get married to her. It's an odd story but then again when has a game of this genre ever had a normal plot? It's a genuinely funny story with good writing. The graphics here are particularly bright and cheerful. This is an anime style game and the characters reflect this design. The levels themselves look nice enough, with the textures looking as they should. The monsters look kind of goofy but that's in keep with the game. The cut scenes are the normal ones we have come to expect with beautiful hand draw comic style manga characters. The map geometry is randomly generated so you won't get the same one twice but the graphics of course are reused. Control wise its fine, but the buttons stick sometimes so the command you input doesn't translate which resulted in a few deaths for me. You have the ability to run fast in straight lines, either diagonals or the X, Y axis. But this again doesn't translate well as the controls are a bit odd and do what they like. The gameplay revolves around exploring dungeons and killing monsters, based on a turn based fighting mechanic in which you attack, form items and other cool things. A good sword and shield are a must here because in this game you will die. When you die all your items and tools will be lost. So keep potions at hand to heal you, although your health does regenerate when you move around. That being the case death is always near. During battles Kuu will also aid you but mostly he just stands around begging for food. When he does help it's a great asset to have however. The way the maps are generated Kuu gets stuck a lot and you have to chase him down. If he dies you die so pay attention to that detail closely. His health does not regenerate so you need to constantly throw him food or items to build his stats up. One aspect of the gameplay I didn't like is the resetting of my level after I finished a level. This game has this special option however so be warned. Building up your stats and various curry recipes is key to get far in this title. Also when you get to town you can go to your room and save items which you managed to earn. There are other places to visit including the Magic Academy in which you can check for quests and get rewards quests you have completed. The library gives you access to item/monster compendiums, your player history and you can visit the Chara Theater for items you collected to see what their relevance in the world is. I have enjoyed this title and I would recommend it to others only if you like this type of game. If you want to build up levels and stats and keep these then this is not your title. Dungeon crawling in this fashion may annoy many buy fans of this genre will know what this is and will appreciate it. The story alone is worth the asking price and this is a peach of a title in many aspects. The controls slightly let it down, the manner in which deaths occur and the frequency will again annoy some. For me it was a learning tool and so far after 12 hours I'm still going.
