'Almonds: freshly picked and lightly roasted in the kitchens of Noval, duly seasoned with fine salt and pepper are essential for evening contentment on the terrace or drinks in the drawing room. When first I heard the daily repetitive tap-tapping on the Noval kitchen steps, it put me in mind of a Song Thrush using his beak to crack the shells of garden snails. I soon discovered the source of this mysterious sound: Maria- Joao was seated on the granite step alongside a large wicker basket brim full with almonds. With a small hammer she cracks open each and every shell; once removed from their clam like enclosures the nuts are roasted to a golden honeyed hue. Removed from the oven, salt and pepper are liberally applied and the resultant flavour is indescribably delicious. This rare treat, when served beneath the majestic arms of the Noval Cedar of Lebanon, is truly unique.'
Quoted from the Quinta do Noval Harvest Diary by D. Eley

North Korea May Need Aid Another Year Aid Group Director Says 1998 Harvest Is Going To Be Even Worse Than This Year
Wed., Oct. 22, 1997
North Korean agriculture has been hurt so severely by drought and lack of fertilizer that the hunger-stricken country could require massive food aid for at least another year, an aid official said Tuesday.
The autumn harvest is expected to be poor, and shortages of farm chemicals and healthy workers could result in drastically reduced spring planting, said Kathi Zellweger, Hong Kong director of the aid group Caritas.
"Next year will not be any better. I rather think it's going to be worse," said Zellweger, who returned Tuesday from her 13th trip to the reclusive communist nation.
North Korea has suffered three years of poor harvests. Drought and flooding have compounded years of economic mismanagement and the loss of aid from the former Soviet Union.
North Korea said it has lost 1.8 million tons of corn and rice to drought and tidal waves this year - about one-third of the annual needs of its 24 million people. After a summer with only a few days of rain, the few foreigners allowed into North Korea have described bone-dry reservoirs and river beds.
Information on conditions in North Korea is scarce. The government has not released new figures since July, when it said 37 percent of children under age 6 were malnourished. It said 134 children died last year of hunger.
Hundreds of thousands of tons of donated food has averted widespread starvation, but the danger of disease in the hunger-weakened population remains high, Zellweger said.
"The situation has stabilized somewhat, but it will take very little for the country to relapse," she said. "If we have a major epidemic or even a severe flu, that would have disastrous consequences."
Zellweger showed reporters pictures of hollow-eyed children with stick-like limbs and stunted growth. She said many had coughs and runny noses.
Even though international food aid has helped save malnourished children's lives, the good is being undone by poor water and sanitation systems, UNICEF and the World Food Program said Tuesday.
The two agencies have spent nearly $14.3 million since April to provide emergency food and medical supplies to 2.6 million children under the age of 6.

Have you ever wanted to get rid of background noise?
Audacity is a free program that you can download here. It's a robust audio editing program. This tutorial shows you how to remove background noise.
How was that? It's super easy! Here is what the audacity wiki has to say:
The Noise Removal
Then, select the audio from which you want the noise removed, which you do by clicking in the track and dragging a selection area with your mouse. Note however that you may not necessarily want to apply Noise Removal to the whole track. This is because most Noise Removal takes some of the music away with the noise, and adds or exposes artifacts in the recording.
If you only have a few spots in the track that need a small amount of Noise Removal, you may well want to select only those areas to remove noise from. But if the spots need a greater amount of Noise Removal, they may once noise is removed have a rather different "feel" or timbre than the rest of the track, and betray that it has been treated at those points.
In this case it may be better to remove noise from the whole track so that it sounds consistent. To apply Noise Removal to the entire track, select all of it by clicking in the Track Control Panel where the Mute/Solo buttons are, or if you only have one track on the screen you can use CTRL + A(or (CMND + A on a Mac).or the hotkey
Having selected the length of audio from which you want to remove noise, chooseagain, but this time, click the "Remove Noise" button. It may take a few seconds or longer depending on how much track you selected.
If not enough noise was removed, or too much of the recording was removed along with the noise, you can useand try Noise Removal again with a different noise removal level on the slider, which adjusts the noise threshold. You don't have to get a new Noise Profile again if you think the first one was fine.
However if the problem is that too much of the signal (music, voice, etc.) has been removed along with the noise, you can also try going back to the selection chosen for the Noise Profile and reducing its amplification (). Then use this as a new Noise Profile. Sometimes running the filter a second time using a Noise Profile that is a de-amplified section of track can give a good result. Another possibility is to select and the track you want to remove noise from before applying Noise Removal, and adjust the relative volume of the two tracks (using the gain slider on the Track Control Panel) so you get the best mix of the original and noise removed tracks.
Note that if the nature of the background noise changes significantly during the course of the audio, it will be best to take an individual sample of the changed noise and apply that noise sample to the section of audio affected by that particular noise.
I hope you enjoyed this tutorial! Let me know in the comments below if you have any other tutorials you'd like me to do!

OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada's government was accused of racism and abandoning its citizens on Wednesday when it emerged that officials had falsely accused a Canadian woman in Kenya of being an impostor, an act that led to her arrest.
Critics rounded on the minority Conservative government with unusual ferocity over the bizarre case, which could damage the ruling party's efforts to capture more votes from influential ethnic communities at the next election.
The story started in May when a passport officer at Nairobi airport refused to let Suaad Hagi Mohamud board a plane on the grounds that she did not look enough like her passport photo.
For reasons that are still unclear, the Canadian embassy annulled her passport and then told Kenyan authorities she was an impostor. Mohamud, 31, who spent a week in jail, took two months before she could persuade Ottawa to agree to a DNA test that proved her identity.
Mohamud is from ethnically diverse Toronto, the largest city in the country and a key electoral battleground in the powerful province of Ontario, where the Conservatives have put in a major effort to win seats.
"Something is fundamentally wrong when we can't count on the Canadian government to stand up for Canadians. I'm not sure I can put it any more directly than that," an unhappy Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty told reporters on Wednesday.
The Toronto Star, Canada's largest circulation newspaper, said the case was "a national scandal". The influential Globe and Mail said it was "shocking and unreasonable".
Critics noted that Mohamud was the latest in a line of foreign-born Canadian citizens who have run into trouble abroad and then found it hard to gain Ottawa's attention and help.
"In Canada today, God help you if you're not white, because the federal government sure won't ... this smacks not just of prejudice, but apartheid," wrote the Star's Christopher Hume.
Canadian government ministers have been silent about what happened, despite the increasing uproar. The Foreign Ministry said officials were working to help Mohamud return to Canada.

Wrong! It's common issue that emails don't ever get delivered to the intended recipient due to a variety of reasons, such as the email clients (i.e. Outlook) deeming your email as Spam Mail or the exchange servers (i.e. Company Firewalls) blocking your emails, etc.

Below is a list of words you want to avoid using in your emails because it will increase the chances of your emails being sent to the Spam folder. Don't forget, just because none of the words in your email are from the Spam Trigger Word List doesn't mean that your email will guaranteed reach the intended recipient's inbox, but it definitely does help your chances of a successful delivery.
Below are the words you should stay away from putting in your email:

EMAIL Marketing Deliverability Troubleshooting Guide for AOL, Gmail, Yahoo, and iCloud
Deliverability is a moving target, and identifying why your message doesn't reach the inbox isn't always clear. The goal of this guide is to help illustrate how specific ISPs handle incoming mail, and share how messages can be optimized for better deliverability. If you are having difficulty with deliverability to all ISPs, you may want to take a look at sender reputation best practices and check out how your ESP protects deliverability. Before a message is delivered, the ISP must determine a) if the sender is legitimate, b) where the message should be placed, and c) if the recipient wants to receive the message. Each ISP has a different approach to inbox placement, filtering, whitelisting, and handling recipient actions.

Finance Ministry Scrutinizes Business Mileage Expenses
The finance minister, Abraham Hirchson, will review today recommendations, made by a professional ministry team, that would raise the cost of cars provider by employers.
One of the recommendations, TheMarker has learned, is to lower the number of kilometers permitted to be written off as a business expense for such private vehicles. As a result, the costs of car usage recognized for tax purposes could turn out to be quite low.
Today the Israel Tax Authority (ITA) simply allows every kilometer traveled annually, over the first 9,900, to be listed as being for business purposes.
In other words, the taxman assumes that the average amount of personal travel undertaken in cars provided by employers to their workers is 9,900 kilometers. But this number does not match the figures collected by the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS). According to the official numbers, the average car in Israel travels 18,000 kilometers a year.
While the CBS does not differentiate between business and private use in its figures, the treasury has studied the matter - and discovered that the great majority of such use is for private purposes.
In addition, the Supreme Court has ruled that car travel to and from work is considered a private trip, and cannot be considered a business expense, providing further support for the treasury's conclusions.
The treasury considers the 9,900-kilometer figure to be arbitrary and unrealistic - and one that needs to be corrected. Expectations are that the ministry will lift the bar for trips to be considered business expenses to between 15,000 to 17,000 kilometers a year.
Drivers who put on less kilometrage than that will find that they are limited in the expenses they can write off for their cars.
They can use an alternate calculation, based on 25 percent of actual costs, but that is also considered low and unrealistic. It is likely that in response the treasury will raise this to 30-40 percent of actual costs.
Others who will be hurt by the change are those self-employed for whom such a change would change their tax status, due to a significant drop in their allowable expenses.
The effect on employers would mean a reduction in their business expenses recognized for tax purposes; however, this could partially be offset by the planned increase in the taxes paid by employees on such vehicles - which would decrease employers' expenses.
In practice, the double whammy of both reduced mileage for business purposes and higher tax brackets for users of the cars, would push most employers over the limit allowed for writing off such expenses, and their total costs would rise too.
Estimates are that the move would increase tax revenues by NIS 2.5 billion.

Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by theandroidboy, Sep 2, 2010.
Samsung Galaxy Tab officially unveiled at IFA 2010
Check out the official image gallery here
I want one. I want one real bad. I wonder if Tmobile will get this and I will be able to use my sim card
I want one too, just hoping theres an alternative to vodafone in the uk. Using one of their 3G dongles to write this, and it is absolute cack! Signal is terrible seemingly in every hotel i ever stay in while away working!
Did I read this right?? They are only selling a 3G version and it will be sold through carriers so I'm assuming you have to buy a monthly plan with your Tab purchase?? If so that is a huge mistake. Why pay for 3G when you can tether your existing smartphone when needed?
Actually, does anyone know the breakdown of iPad sales 3G vs. wifi
I would assume they are selling more wifi by far, but I'm usually wrong on this stuff
I am so happy to see that the home screen can be displayed in landscape mode which is big to me. I wonder if it is because of Froyo? Does anyone know?
cheaper than ipad...cheaper than ipad...!

Obama's new gay rights strategy? FAIL. Check out MY new gay rights strategy.
As various sites reported today, President Obama has just issued a new "directive" (or "memorandum" or "strategy" -- no one can quite agree what to call it) in which, as the New York Times put it, "the United States would use all the tools of American diplomacy, including the potent enticement of foreign aid, to promote gay rights around the world."
Tina Korbe at Hot Air rightly characterizes the directive as "insincere" and "symbolic," but I think that criticism is far too mild. A more accurate description might be "hypocritical mealy-mouthed horse shit." Why? Because Obama doesn't really want to promote gay rights in foreign countries — he just wants to lock up the American gay vote in the 2012 election by spewing feel-good mendacity as a sop to the gay community.
Obama's proposal, which you can read in full at whitehouse.gov, involves a lot of gentle nudging and "engaging multilateral agencies" and tut-tutting and speaking loudly while carrying a small stick. In other words, it will be totally (and intentionally) ineffectual.
I too want to protect gay rights around the world. I mean, really protect gay rights around the world. Not merely pretend to like Obama and his "good for few headlines and then quickly abandoned" lip service.
And so I hereby call out President Obama on his so-called gay rights strategy. I throw down the gauntlet.
President Obama (and his supporters): are you up for the challenge? Here is my proposal:
Zombie's No-Holds-Barred International Gay Rights Strategy
• Enforce a total embargo against any country that has a death penalty for homosexual activity, including most importantly Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, as well as Yemen, Iran, Mauritania, and Somalia.
• In order to implement the embargo and make the United States energy-independent from these death-penalty countries, open up to drilling all American-controlled offshore oil fields in the Gulf of Mexico, and loosen any existing restrictions against oil production on U.S. territory.
• Enact punitive tariffs and other severe economic penalties against any US trading partners that continue to do business with Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, or other countries where gays are executed.
• Withhold all – and I mean ALL – foreign aid from any countries where homosexuality is officially illegal and where gays are imprisoned or punished simply for being gay. Promise to restore aid only when homosexuality is legalized. The countries affected by this order include Pakistan, the Palestinian Territories (Gaza), Syria, Qatar, Malaysia, Oman, Lebanon, Kuwait, Bangladesh, Burma, Uzbekistan, Zimbabwe, Senegal, Ghana, among many others.

Opel/Vauxhall is in the hot seat as its lifetime guarantees on new vehicles have made German competition authorities upset enough to threaten to sue for misleading advertising. Alain Visser, head of sales and marketing at the General Motors Co. unit, defends its guarantees and asserts that he opposes the authorities' claims that the campaign was "misleading."
He said that the unit is not even thinking about dropping this campaign. Recently, Opel had received criticism from Germany's federal committee for its alleged unfair commercial practices when it launched the campaign providing a lifelong warranty on new cars.
Visser clarified that similar to other guarantee offers, those of Opel/Vauxhall has conditions, which he claims have been presented very clearly.
He didn't reveal how much the campaign cost but he stated that it had been worked out over a long period of time and was announced with the same care and dedication as a new product or model of car.
The competition authority calls this campaign to be deceiving because even though there is no time restriction on the warranty, it only guarantees repair cost-coverage for vehicles with less than 160,000 kilometers (about 100,000 miles) on the odometer.
Visser responds to this argument with a challenge for anyone to find him a car that has at least 100,000 kilometers.
The coverage of this warranty deal includes the engine, transmission, electronics and the steering system; however, the parts subject to regular wear and tear such as seat belts and oil filters are excluded. [via autonews - sub. required]

Cash versus incentive compensation: Lawsuits and director pay
The role of the board of directors is to oversee managerial decisions and to protect the interests of shareholders. While director pay historically is a small cash fee, many corporations now use both stock and option grants as a part of a director's compensation. This paper examines whether this incentive pay aligns the interests of directors with those of the shareholders. We study the special case of shareholder lawsuits that specifically name the board of directors. These lawsuits indicate a breakdown in the trust and therefore the relationship between shareholders and directors. We find that when directors are paid with high incentive pay (designed to align their interests with shareholders) there is a greater incidence of lawsuits. Interestingly, greater cash compensation actually reduces the likelihood of a lawsuit.

Title says it all, there is a new bug out and about; well, I shouldn't really call it a bug considering it will totally ruin your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. This new issue pretty much affects all 64-bit iOS devices; that is pretty much every iOS device available today. Well what exactly happens?
Before you start anything, let me tell you one thing straight forward. Whatever happens do not change the time settings in your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to January 1, 1970. Once you do that and restart your iOS device, it's never going to wake up. It's going to get bricked!
Why January 1, 1970? We don't have an exact answer to that yet but the date is important in computer science because that is the time from when all machines started their 'time counting'. The date is also known as Epoch time or POSIX time.
A post on Reddit brought this issue to the spotlight, which might have been a bad thing considering a lot of people have since then bricked their iPhones, iPads and iPod touchs'.
Until Apple releases a fix for this issue, do not replicate this on your iOS device or any of your friends or family. If you are worried that someone might do this to your iPhone; there is atweak in Cydia which will prevent malicious users from entering the specific date. It's called 'BrickingDate'. So download that.
As I mentioned before, do not try this on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
Confirmed 7-11 locations so far here in Dumaguete City.

|If you refuse to take this seriously, then I won't enjoy killing you.
|~ Shiori
|Please. I'm begging you.
|~ Shiori's last words while attempting to rape Takayama
Shiori Tsuzuki is a minor antagonist in the anime adaptation of Witchblade.
Shiori was a part of Tatsuoki Furumizu's neogene program, i.e. she was bioengineered to be used as a cloneblade wielder. Once fitted with the cloneblade, she and Furumizu's daughter Dr Reina Soho (also fitted with a cloneblade) developed the ability of flight, superhuman strength and resilience to damage, and gained the ability to sprout a giant scythe from her arm.
She first appears killing several ex-cons under Furumizu's instruction alongside Reina, where she is spotted by Masane Amaha, the wielder of the Witchblade.
Because Furumizu wanted her to retrieve the witchblade at all cost, she took it upon herself to try to kill Masane and remove the blade from her, and she took a disturbing amount of pleasure in doing so. In the battle, her scythe cut into Masane's chest, but failed to kil her. Before she could land a killing blow, Masane was taken away by an armoured ambulance, which Shiori pursued aggressively, and attempted to kill everyone on board by crashing onto it from a great height.
Realising that she had failed to kill Masane, Shiori tried to attack the boat that Masane was being loaded onto, only to be stopped by Reina, who saw that Shiori was losing a grip on her sanity and risking countless motorists' lives.
At the NSWF medical facility, Reina took a blood sample from Shiori, worried about her health. At this point it was revealed that Shiori had a deeply unhealthy obsession with Reina, and would often touch Reina's body somewhat inappropriately and lick her hands afterward.
Reina showed concern that Shiori's battle wounds weren't healing, and began to suspect that Shiori was undergoing some kin of change, but wasn't sure what it was. It becomes clear that the damage sustained to the cloneblade had a bizarre affect on her mind, causing Shiori's already evident psychosis to increase. Resultantly, she murders her nurse for no reason other than pleasure, only to suddenly become confused and forget what she'd done, only saying "I feel weird."
Shiori then began begging for help from Reina, then kissed Reina and told her that she killed the nurse because she wanted to know what it would feel like. She then added "It felt so good, thank you.", and leaped out of the medical centre window.
The cloneblade's amage meant that it was slowly killing Shiori, and its psychological damage made her constantly seek pleasure, causing her to murder several innocent civilians. The cloneblade then reactivated inside Shiori, causing her to take a different blue form, and Shiori flew over the seawater to attack Masane's boat.
She then killed 2 of the crew only to be confronted by Masane in Witchblade form. Desiring the witchblade's power for herself, Shiori violently attacked Masane, but was shot by Takayama. Surviving the blasts because of her power, Shiori threw Masane overboard, and attempted to rape Takayama, but then succumbed to the cloneblade's damage, and her body crystallised before turning to dust.

It's been a bit of a slow end to the year! Many members of the team are taking some well deserved time off with friends and family. If you've been too socially pre-occupied to keep up to date, worry not! Read on to find out what you've been missing.
Flanster released a cool new tool to help you autosave your work when you are in the editor! Have you ever, frustratingly, lost precious work because someone spilled coffee on the fusebox and caused catastrophic failure of all electronic devices in your household? At least until we have some better form of version control in place, this handy little app will be the solution to all your hair tearing woes.
Two new storyboard showcases have been uploaded for your viewing pleasure. This time, Deadbeat is serving up lovely creations from nold_1702 and yf_bmp. Last week we also featured the brainchild of three storyboarders, -[Koinuri], pandorawindy and ShallICompareThee. That said, if you didn't know about that already, why haven't you subscribed to the osu!academy channel yet?
Another month, another soul crushingly difficult puzzle to solve! Here are the solutions to the puzzle starrodkirby86 put out for us earlier this month. How did you do? I'm starting to feel like I need to brush up on my knowledge of the community! Who is this VINXIS guy anyway? Whether or not you listen to him, stay tuned for next week when we put out something new for you to bash your skull against!
Are you feeling toasty this Christmas week? Hope you are, because we have some toasty scores too!
How fast can Rafis go? Can he go 200,000,000m/s? Well, he sure did FC that difficulty on antiPLUR - Speed of Link with an astonishing 99.77%, earning himself 454pp. Simply astonishing.
Another FC has been set on Imperial Circus Dead Decadence - Uta. Bring in - T A R U L A S-, who earned 3rd place in the OWC 2016, and also smashed this map with 99.36% and scoring 610pp. Brace yourself for another epic reaction!
_yu68 pulled off an absolute masterpiece of a score by FCing BABYMETAL - Road of Resistance with the DT mod, scoring 99.05% and grabbing 581pp in the process. This is about 310BPM with DT, which makes it even more impressive. This man seems unstoppable.
Something unheard of! Bonsai has managed to get the first HD FC on Reol - Gokusaishiki on the Hollow Wings' difficulty. The difficulty is, as you can expect, filled with abnormal sliders that jump everywhere. Don't think this is worthy? Check it out yourself!
How good is your accuracy? Anywhere as good as Gauderique? Well, he has become the second player to hit 20,000 SS ranks in all modes! He got the 20,000th SS rank on Various Artists - NAGI NO ASUKARA Songs Compliation. Seems like he will be aiming for 30,000 now. Wish him all the best!
The team has been cooking up something special for the start of the year! I don't really want to spoil the fun for everyone, so you'll just have to check back next week to see what's been cooking under the table. In the meantime, if you have something you'd like to share with us to feature on the weekly, drop by the osu!dev discord and ping either me or Deadbeat. Otherwise, just shoot us an e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com. Happy new year everyone!

DiscSpan is a tool that will take that a large directory full of files and automatically burn a series of DVDs to near capacity, without the need or hassle of creating individual ISOs or moving files around. It is geared more towards smaller files such as music and photos, as it cannot span a file across multiple discs. It prompts for the directory you'd like to back up, the device to use to burn, and the speed at which to burn. It analyzes the files and calculates how many DVDs are needed, while making sure no files are greater than the size of a DVD.
|Archiving backup
|Operating Systems
|POSIX Linux
Release Notes: The "--test" option was broken in 0.2.1 and has been fixed. The tray is no longer ejected when --test or --iso-dir options are used. The drive/media detection code was cleaned up a little and more meaninful output was added. The "--skip-big" option was added to optionally skip files that were too big for ISO 9660 or recording media (CDs) instead of exiting. Logic was added to try to predict ISO file system size to reduce the need for the --size-factor option.
Release Notes: A "size-factor" option was added for modifying the capacity of the disk on the fly. A --verbose option will spit out the file names. Some more diagnostic output was added, such as how many files will be on each disc and the approximate size of the finished disc. An option was added to write to ISO files instead of directly to the burner.
Release Notes: This release is mostly re-written, with an object-oriented approach. It should work on modern systems (tested on Fedora 12 and 13 and RHEL 5.5). It requires a discspan.ini file; speed must be set in this file. It has a --help option and uses real option parsing now. You can specify the directory, volume name, starting disc, etc. It uses ISO level 4 for burns, so as to not run into directory depth problems that exist with ISO level 3.
Release Notes: This release is capable of detecting DVD-RW and DVD+ variants. It correctly traps Ctrl+C. The README has been updated.
Release Notes: Smater DVD drive detection.
A Fluent OpenStack client API for Java.
A TWiki appliance that is easy to use and lightweight.

Nice Lights
Reviewed By Casey S (Grand Rapids, MI) Reviewed for a 2004 GMC Sierra —4/12/2011 5:32 PM
The lights were about as bright as I wanted. Not like a spotlight, but not dim either. Nice white/blue light. The wiring was easy although the diagram provided by the manufacturer was horrible. Installed in about 2 hours. The lights are high quality. I would recommend this to a friend. My dad is also going to purchase based on seeing them in my truck.

The City Council inspects some documents concerning Christian Lake subdivision. From left are Mayor Toby Hardigree, clerk Julie Sanders, council members Mike Link and Samantha Purcell (standing), John Griner and John Hanley.Daniel J. Matthews Jr./Special
A section of Christian Lake subdivision off Hardin Hill Road received a new round of scrutiny by the Watkinsville City Council on April 9. This time, the second phase was being initialized for preliminary plat approval.
Councilwoman Samantha Purcell asked a lot of questions of developer Doug Dickens and his spokesman Mack Furlow of Beall, Gonnsen and Company.
Of special concern for the council was the matter of the 100-year flood-plain markings. Purcell was the only council member who voted against passage of Phase II. She said she had hiked the forested area around the lake and had seen some significant erosion and run-off.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has yet to decide exactly where the flood plain is and that could effect several parcels of property around the 4.16-acre Christian Lake as well the wetlands of Harris Shoals Park.
Dickens appeared upset at one point of the meeting, stating, ''This isn't right,'' as he left but came back a short time later. He originally had wanted to include 30 acres of greenspace to get 75-foot lots., but had the council agree to 100-foot minimums with no greenspace.
Council member William White went to great lengths to explain the council had not voted against the greenspace but against the smaller lots.
Also the matter of the topographical slant of some portions of Christian Drive came under questioning, but Watkinsville planning commission member Hoyt Watson responded with his committee's approval. Up to 60 out of the 73 lots of the second phase will be on the city sewer and the remainder on septic tanks.
In other business, the council approved business licenses for:
Denny Stephens and Eastville Stephens Inc. at 50-A Morrison.
Susan Canerday of SEC Properties for Miller's Sporting Goods on 27 Greensboro Highway.
The council also approved a building permit for Dan Saye Construction to build an addition to 117 South Main Street.
Several people, including Ashford Manor Bed & Breakfast co-owner Jim Shearon, spoke in favor of sidewalks along Harden Hill and expressed concerns over the DOT's timetable on construction of a street light at the intersection of Main Street.
Ted Evans received permission to build a climate-controlled warehouse near Car Craft on Greensboro Highway. Also, city auditor Don Briscoe reported to the council on why the Georgia Department of Audits advertised about a discrepancy in the 1999 filing of the city budget. He promised to have the audit changed to meet the state guidelines.

Unanswered: Proving the innocence of my replication.
We a have a database that runs a website now this live database is replicated to our client office that has a merge replication going every 30 minutes.
Now about a month ago they asked me to take off the replication and change a couple of the fields to NOT NULL and then set the replicaton back up. Now what I did was:
1: check that the replication had successful run.
2: delete the replication
3: make the changes
4: start a new merge replication, that would do a snap shot over their copy with our copy and then start merging everything 30 minute.
5: watch it to make sure that the merge replicatoin was working okay.
Now we had a data problem that had just turn up now and they think it was cause by the time we change the replication.
The problme was some of the data looks like it was from the wrong time, around 5 days before the replication was swapped over. To me the replication swap over seem fairly straight forward but I cannot rpove any o this because it was so long ago and the merge repliction table no longer has the data in it.
Now they have look though the SQL Log, and it has row in it like
' Starting up database 'BHPCopy'.' .
Now the resone they say they think their is something wrong with the replication is because their is no Starting up database entery for between 1:30 and 3:30 which is the time we did the replication swap over, the first time it reports this is at 6:00. Does anyone know why this woudl be? The log is on their machine not to live box (also the publisher).
Please help. Ed

Dell forecasts beat analyst predictions
DELL, the world's third-largest personal-computer maker, forecast third-quarter sales that beat analysts' estimates but its second-quarter gross margin fell short of projections.
Sales-percentage growth this quarter will be in the low single digits from last quarter, Dell said in a statement.
Gross margin excluding some items -- a measure of profitability -- was 17.2pc in the second quarter, missing the average 18pc predicted by analysts, according to Ashok Kumar, an at Rodman & Renshaw in New York.
Demand from companies and governments outside the US helped drive sales at the company's commercial division, chief financial officer Brian Gladden said in an interview. Rising costs of components squeezed profitability, he added. Under CEO Michael Dell, the company is trying to reduce its dependence on PC sales and build up a business that supplies computer services to government and corporations.
"There's a solid corporate refresh cycle," said Mr Gladden. "Global business was pretty strong outside the US."
Dell did see weakness in US consumer demand for PCs throughout the quarter, he said.
Second-quarter net income rose to $545m (€429m), or 28c a share, from $472m, or 24c, a year earlier.
Profit, minus some costs, was 32c a share, beating analysts' 30c estimate. Sales gained 22pc to $15.5bn, also exceeding predictions.
The company's move toward building a services business through acquisitions of companies such as Perot Systems "is going to take some time", said Kumar, who rated Dell shares "market perform", but doesn't own any himself.

New Addition to Roseville's Galleria Might Make Shopping More Tolerableby Sonya Sorich
Roseville, CA – Imagine sipping wine in the relaxing atmosphere of a tasting room…with Auntie Anne's pretzels not too far away. One local winery is setting up shop at a prominent retail center to attract new customers. Lincoln-based Wise Villa Winery has opened a tasting area and retail operation at the Westfield Galleria at Roseville. Guests can taste wines and purchase bottles at the space, which resembles a kiosk rather than a full retail store. It's located on the mall's second level near Victoria's Secret. "It's just an opportunity for us to get more exposure to the wine," said Allison Speece, the winery's tasting room manager.
