Known globally for their viral dance track and accompanying video, 15-year-old Zay Hilfigerrr (Tyjuan Peoples) and 17-year-old Zayion McCall (James McMcall) released "Juju on That Beat (TZ Anthem)" on Soundcloud and YouTube in the summer of 2016. The track, which samples Crime Mob's "Knuck if You Buck," took social media by storm, spawning #TZAnthemChallenge and amassing 200 million views on the official music video alone. On Spotify they have had over 130 million streams of the song. Following its release on iTunes and across music retail in September, "Juju on That Beat" landed on 18 charts internationally including #3 on US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and #5 on Hot 100. As the most influential dance record of the summer, "Juju on That Beat" garnered media attention and praise from the hip hop community and music industry alike, winning the 2016 Kids' Choice Award for Favorite Music Video against Beyonce, Bruno Mars and Justin Timberlake. The track is also nominated for a Billboard Music Award as Top Streaming Song and a Radio Disney Music Award for Best Song that Makes You Smile.
Originally from Detroit, the upbeat nature of Zay and Zayion's music and positive outlook, belies two rough upbringings in one of America's toughest cities. "'Juju' is like one of my personalities," Zay remarks, "It's when I'm happy and a fun person, living life as a kid."
Despite chaotic home lives and the stresses of their respective neighborhoods, the duo carved out their own paths very early on, with unmatched creativity and drive. "I was different from all of the other rappers growing up in Detroit," Zayion says of his hometown. "I had a separate mindset, because everybody only wants to drink and have fun. The city wasn't trying to hear from me, but I wasn't going to quit. Everyone's trying to make it out of Detroit," Zayion continues. "To know that we have fans singing and dancing to our song around the world is the most amazing feeling."

24 September 1943
Our village has suffered another blow as a result of the war in the death of Gnr. Donald Murray, R.A., husband of Bella Mackay, 10 North Bragar, and son of the late John Murray and Mrs Murray, 44 South Bragar, which took place on 6th September at Preston Royal Infirmary. Widespread regret was felt when it was learned that his death occurred at the comparatively early age of 42 years. Indeed, his passing leaves a large gap here, for his nature was such that many were attracted towards him. He was of a very happy and humorous disposition and always looked on the bright side of things. No social gathering was complete without him and his own natural wit coupled with his rendering of many local songs was exceptional entertainment. For some Years he resided in Benside where he was employed by the Post Office at the time of his calling-up nearly two years ago. Then he and Mrs Murray made their home in Bragar, where Donald pent his last two leaves. We were glad to see him back in our midst again. His many friends in the Laxdale district will also be sorry to hear of his death. The remains were brought home and on September 11th the funeral to the Bragar Cemetery took place. The large number who gathered to pay their tribute to the memory of Domhnull Iain 'an Ghobha was proof of his popularitY. We extend our sympathies to his widow and two young children and also to his aged mother, brothers and sisters, in their irreparable loss.

Considerable debate surrounds the concept of entrepreneurial opportunities. This paper approaches the opportunity concept from an evolutionary market process perspective. It argues that new opportunities for entrepreneurial activity frequently emerge as by-products of market competition. Agents may deliberately or unwittingly create opportunities. Organizational development and the evolution of industries are additional sources of new entrepreneurial opportunities. At the same time, they enable agents to acquire the skills required to exploit these opportunities.

IAEA Chief arrives in Tehran for further nuclear talks

The head of the U.N. atomic watchdog is holding talks in Tehran on Monday, following the negotiations between Iran and world powers in Geneva that failed to reach an initial agreement on the nation's nuclear program.
International Atomic Energy Agency chief Yukiya Amano said that his negotiations were "independent" from those held in Switzerland between Iran and the six world powers, known as the P5+1, Agence France-Presse reported.
A deal with the IAEA for Iran could repair the damaged hopes for progress ahead of the next P5+1 round on November 20.
"The only reason he (Amano) would go would be if he's confident that they were going to agree on something," one Western diplomat in Vienna told AFP, predicting an initial accord with "confidence-building measures".
Amano said that Iran and the U.N. body had reached a "very important point," according to AFP.
"Iran presented a new proposal (to the IAEA) last month that includes practical measures to strengthen cooperation and dialogue, and we hope to build on it," Amano said.
The chief's last trip to Tehran in May 2012, failed to reach an agreement with Iran.
The IAEA conducts regular inspections of Iran's nuclear facilities but also wants Iran to answer allegations that it was trying before 2003, and maybe since, to develop a nuclear weapon.
Iran denies the allegations and claims its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes.
For two years Tehran has resisted the IAEA's requests to visit sites as well as to consult documents and speak to certain Iranian scientists.
The sites include the Parchin military base where the IAEA wants to probe claims that scientists conducted explosives tests that it says would be "strong indicators of possible nuclear weapon development,"according to AFP.
Discussions with the United States, China, Russia, Britain, France and Germany are focused on Tehran's current activities, in particular uranium enrichment, with Iran seeking sanctions relief.
The countries also want Tehran to accept more intrusive inspections by the watchdog as part of a wider accord.
The IAEA would also be closely involved in monitoring any freeze in enrichment and in Iran sending its stockpiles of nuclear material to a third country.
The three-day intense negotiations in Geneva in a bid to curb Iran's uranium enrichment and ease sanctions failed to reach an agreement.
Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said on Sunday that he hoped Iran and the P5+1 countries would reach an agreement in their next meeting, adding that the latest round of talks was something all delegations can build on.
But Iran's President Hassan Rouhani, said on Sunday that the country's "rights to enrichment" of uranium were "red lines" and that his nation will not bow its head to any threat or sanction against it.
His comments came after U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Sunday that the United States is determined to ensure that Iran does not acquire a nuclear weapon.

It's cool to re-read some old tutorials and find mistakes at least it means you have improved a little bit
Another weird exploit is that you'll go a little faster if you face the direction you're going vertically. So if your body is moving upwards as in the start of the jump, move your crosshair a bit upwards. Then as you are coming down, move it a bit down.
Vertical motion is ignored when it comes to gaining speed, you could do a superfast circlestrafejump or gammajump with m_pitch = 0 (if you can do it without, that is )
Vertical movements *could* be useful only as a way to achieve different speeds in your horizontal motion, but the game engine ignores the vertical component.

Perhaps the most haunting and tragic love story ever written, Wuthering Heights is the tale of Heathcliff, a brooding, troubled orphan, and his doomed love for Catherine Earnshaw. His desire for her leads him to madness when Catherine is made to marry a wealthy lord, sending Heathcliff on a lifelong quest to avenge himself upon those who stole his only love and his life.In this gripping chronicle of the never-ending conflict between the heart and the mind - and the pain and passion of true romance - Emily Brontë created an unforgettable classic saga of love, desperation, vengeance, and forgiveness. Published just one year before Brontë's death in 1848 at the age of 30, Wuthering Heights endures as one of the world's greatest love stories and a classic of English literature.More
Emily Brontë's sorrowful story of doomed romance between two childhood friends finds its voice in Anne Flosnik's narration. The diverse range of characters in this classic could present a difficult challenge for a sole narrator, but Flosnik conquers it with alacrity and enthusiasm. She masterfully alters her voice for each character and maintains keen attention to the varied British accents. Without being overly dramatic, Flosnik inserts passion into the dialogue and vividly conveys Brontë's imagery. She captures the cruel infatuation of Heathcliff and the dramatic ranting of his beloved Catherine. Alternately, she delivers the humble narration of maidservant Nellie in kind, measured tones. Flosnik interweaves passionate lamentation with articulate narration.
"It is as if Emily Brontë could tear up all that we know human beings by, and fill these unrecognizable transparencies with such a gust of life that they transcend reality." (Virginia Woolf)

Finally, after weeks of speculation and sometimes-marginalization of the summer after Dean's death, we get to find out what happened to Sam while Dean was caught in Hell for four months. In "I Know What You Did Last Summer"–a two-part episode which will end with next week's mid-season finale (titled "Hell's Angels, although that could change prior to airing, scheduled to air on November 20th.), we finally get answers.
McNiven appears in both tonight's episode and next week's as Anna, a woman who can hear the whisperings of both the demons and the angels. McNiven reveals that her character ends up "…stuck in the middle of a horrible situation" with Sam and Dean, and that both brothers work diligently to get her–and themselves–out of it. Like all other guest stars, Julie confirms that Jared and Jensen are dreams to work with. "Absolutely – both complete gentlemen! I had such fun working with them, and with Genevieve, too," she says. "The boys were hilarious. They can go from joking around to right in a scene, but I get the giggles, so I literally had to bite my cheek and tongue to focus."

Who needs Copacabana when you have Salthill? 'Christ the Redeemer' visits Galway
A little bit of Brazil magic on Ireland's west coast.
Swimmers in Galway Bay must have thought they'd been magically transported to Rio de Janeiro this morning, as a replica of the world famous Christ the Redeemer statue was staring back at them.
The replica was erected near the diving board in Salthill to support Ireland's Olympic heroes who are currently taking on the world in Brazil.
The eye-catching 14.5ft high and 13ft white marble replica was carved with a chainsaw in a secret location in Tonabrucky by sculptor MacDaragh Lambe.
It will now be transported to the roof of the Galway Business School for the duration of the games.

Blood Orange and Thyme Cocktail
I really love the look of a well stocked home bar, the tall shiny bottles and sparkly glassware arranged in a pretty little cluster. There is something about this display that looks and even feels indulgent, celebratory, and satisfactorily fancy. I've been scouring local antique shops looking for great bar pieces for my home bar and I've happily found some gems including a crystal ice bucket with teak and silver tongs, and colorful glass decanters. I have no trouble at all collecting beautiful things, so adding these pieces to my collection was hardly a challenge. What is a challenge though is stocking those vintage decanters with alcohol and keeping them stocked. Admittedly I've learned that we're much better at drinking the alcohol than storing it. What begin as a plan to have several different types of alcohol on hand ready to share with friends when they drop in, or to mix into our own evening cocktails has evolved into a slightly different, simpler reality. Instead of the many bottles I envisioned we now keep a single decanter filled with gin, store club soda beneath the bar set-up in our teak credenza, and keep fresh herbs, and a bowl of seasonal fruit in the kitchen which we use in varying combinations to create new concoctions.
This latest cocktail completely satisfies my winter wantings. It it brightly colored providing a much wanted visual escape from the drab grays of the cold landscape out my window. The flavors are sweet, tart, and subtly herbal; a flavor combination that makes my tastebuds hopeful for the spring months ahead dreaming of those first little tree buds and leafy stems that'll soon be emerging. The club soda adds a subtle bubble to the drink reminiscent of champagne, which of course makes the drink feel special and party worthy, even if I am only sipping it from my couch curled up in my many cold weather layers, huddled beneath a thick throw. And if you do the same I won't tell. Why not feel fabulous and cozy at the same time.
Blood Orange and Thyme Cocktail:
Makes one serving (serve in a glass that can hold 6-8 ounces).
Syrup must steep for 45 minutes for full flavor.
1 ounce Thyme Simple Syrup*
Juice from half a lemon
Juice from half a blood orange
1 ounce grapefruit juice
1.5 ounces club soda
1.5 ounces gin
*To make the Thyme Simple Syrup separate 12 individual sprigs of thyme from the larger branch. Do not remove leaves from the stems. Rinse under cold water and set aside. Boil 1 cup of water. Once water has reached a boil pour into a wide rimmed bowl and add 1/2 cup of sugar, stirring until dissolved. Add the sprigs of thyme to the sweetened water gently submerging as many of the leaves as possible, using a spoon or fork to push the sprigs down if needed. Allow to steep for 45 minutes. Remove sprigs, straining if needed. Pour one ounce into each serving glass once syrup is fully steeped. Garnish with thyme sprigs or even a brightly colored slice of blood orange, or a curled lemon peel.

Apparently, the FTC is filing suit against these people.
I was surfing the net, and guess what I have found....... I think they may be in disguise.......I am not sure, but it just sounds like they changed the name and the marketing materials.....but as you read it, it sounds to me like the same organization as Consumer First........BEWARE>>>>>>>>>>
I have taken the liberty of taking a few exerpts from the site.....
"Our customized software and payment process enables us to offer refunds to Consumers at participating merchants nationwide. It also offers those same individuals the opportunity to become Consumer Advocates and create residual income by enrolling other Consumers to enjoy the benefits of becoming a Consumer FIRST customer."
* No pictures of the card are shown *
"Artwork and design of our new cards is in process. Please stay tuned for the new look of our Consumer FIRST cards...
Coming Soon!"
"Becoming a Card Member is easy, simply click on the Become a Card Member button on the left, and complete the online application. Because the Consumer FIRST Debit Card is not a credit card, there is no credit approval required, so you won't be turned down."
"Once your online application is complete, your order will be processed immediately and you should expect to receive your card in the mail within 2 to 4 weeks."
"Not only will you be able to enjoy all the benefits the Consumer FIRST Card offers, including earning refunds direct from Consumer FIRST when you use it at our participating merchants, you can even earn money by becoming a Consumer Advocate and enrolling other Consumers who enjoy the benefits of becoming a Consumer FIRST cardholder. For more information on how you can become a Consumer Advocate, simply click on Advocates above."
and on this site I also found this......I am so confused it is not funny- I feel that I ahve been lied to so much, I suspect everyone.
Questions have arisen regarding another company illegally using the Consumer FIRST name. It is important that the facts in this matter be made public.
This other company is based in Tampa, Florida and offers credit cards for a fee. These credit cards are apparently never delivered once payment is made. This firm has received extensive coverage on a deceptive business website - The RIP-OFF Report.
It should be made clear that this other company is not related or affiliated with Consumer FIRST, LLC. Furthermore, Consumer FIRST, LLC owns all rights and interest in the Consumer FIRST name as covered in our filing with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
The Consumer FIRST name is our registered property and we maintain the exclusive rights to conduct business under that name in virtually all areas of the financial services industry. Our trademark includes exclusive use of the Consumer FIRST name in credit card services, debit card services, stored value cards, electronic transactions, funds transfer and ATM services, to name a few areas covered by this trademark.
Our legal counsel has sent a 'cease and desist' notice to the Tampa-based company who is illegally conducting business under our name. They have also notified Mr. Bob Butterworth, the Attorney General for the State of Florida. We have not yet received a response from the other company and they continue to operate illegally using our name. We will be escalating legal actions against them until they stop using our good name.
If you or anyone you know have problems with Consumer First of Tampa, Florida - please contact the Attorney General for the State of Florida.* This matter is under active investigation. Consumer FIRST will continue to pursue all legal remedies until this is resolved.
While this matter concerns us, we must continue to focus on doing what's right for our Consumer Advocates, customers and business partners. We are dedicated to operating Consumer FIRST in a fair, honest and professional manner - The Way It Should Be!

A while ago the release of "Bang That" made us dream about the second and hugely awaited album by Disclosure. Guy and Howard Lawrence just gave us a treat while the LP was on progress. And what a treat! "Bang that" has been part of the brothers' DJ sets and we can understand why – the track is just perfect for the dance floor. The beat, the vocals and the repetitiveness are perfectly balanced and will make the most shy-ones dance like nobody's watching.
What we didn't expect at all was the early release of the first single for the upcoming album "Caracal", which will be out on September 25th. "Holding On" counts with "the next big male vocal jazz star" – Gregory Porter – and has Disclosure written all over it! It's incredible how can the UK duo be so distinct and can live up to the expectations made by "Settle". With a sophisticated and eclectic touch, this track gives you the feeling that you matter, that you are special, that you are unique in some way.
But that's not all! The UK duo wants to reaffirm its distinctiveness and just released the first of four connected music videos. The music plays the narrator of the visuals which exhibit a dark, repressed world, where some kind of revolution is being set and only a few ones can do it. The video, under the direction of Ryan Hope, shows an amazing photography, with a great cast and the perfect bonding with the song. We can´t wait for the outcome of this story!

Thank you so much--been trying various time-consuming methods and streaming audio recorders, etc., for several years now. Time to download before he retires...
I tried the url recommended for download, but the only dates it work with are the ones given as examples. When I put another date it does not work.
Well, things always change.
You can try this different one which seems to work now:

But I think Prairie Home Companion knows their days are soon over, and now they just let you download the show directly from their website. I am using Foxfire 25.0 and I now get this message when I go to their website - they say my browser/computer is too old and just click to download the show (see screenshot red circle).

I'll give a description of how to download older shows, but it seems to take several hours to download one 2 hour show. Maybe someone here can pipe in with a faster easier method. Example given is for October 25, 1997 show.
First download and install Orbit which you can get here:
Then go to Prairie Home Companion website and click on "Listen to the whole show" (maybe right click) to download the
(see screenshot)
Open this file in Notepad and you should see this:
Put the above in Firefox and download the
Open that file in Notepad and look through you should find this (starts with rtsp and ends in rm):
Start Orbit, open main screen from taskbar and enter above rtsp (file>enter new url to download).
(see screenshot)
It should start downloading and be in C:\Downloads

Hi all ,
Thanks to jimdagys .
An other way , when got the link "rtsp:... .rm"
ffmpeg -i "rtsp://mprrm.publicradio.org/5559/phc/1997/10/25_phc.rm" -acodec libmp3lame -f mp3 publicradio.mp3JE SUIS CHARLIE !!!
1) Does it it take 2 hours to download via ffmpeg?
2) When using ffmpeg, is there a way just to download the rm stream (not convert to mp3)?
3) If so, what is the complete code to do that for the above example?
4) Also, if I use ffmpeg to convert to mp3 (like the example you gave), what additional software do I need to get ffmpeg to convert to mp3?
5) How do I install that software into ffmpeg?

_ Duration 2H for the video . Not for the download , witch can be different !
2) Audio: cook <= I don't know witch codec to be used .
That's why I choosed 'libmp3lame' as it is a standard .
3) No codec more , it is inclued in ffmpeg
4) additional software , no one
5) Nothing
Cheers .JE SUIS CHARLIE !!!
Many thanks to jimdagys!
I'm looking at the April 25, 1998 show, and there's no link to download the full show - neither of the above methods are working for it. This seems to be a problem with a lot of the 1998 shows - they're divided up into sections with no full show link. Does anyone have any advice?
Yes, I see that there is no "Listen to the whole show" link. There are 18 segment audio files, however. I noticed that some of the old shows don't even have the segment files links, just nothing. The Orbit link that "should" work for the April 25, 1998 show ( if following the pattern on above Oct 25, 1997 example) should be:
but it doesn't work.
I downloaded all 18 segment audio files. I don't know if all 18 will cover the entire minutes of the 2 hour show.
I stored it in a zip file and you can download it here:
I would send a complaint to somebody that maintains the archives. Maybe they can fix the website and that would help a lot of other people too.
Note: Old show audio files are in the ra (Real Audio) format and play in VLC Media Player with no problem.

Thank you so, so much for that zip file, jimdagys - those clips contained exactly the parts of the show I needed!!!
I'm working my way backwards saving the shows, I've got 2006-2016 so far using your methods, and I'm slowly working my way through 2005 with Orbit. I sent a message to PHC earlier this week asking if there were full show links for the 1998 shows, but so far no response.
feb 11, 2012 they went to 128 bit mp3. before that it is 64 bit. so the url changes eg http://184.108.40.206/phc/2011/04/16/phc_20110416_64.mp3
Are any of you able to download the October 11, 2003 show which was replayed again (and archived again) on March 26, 2005? I can't even get the link to open to listen.
What I am trying to find is the episode where GK talks about at weddings they play a march at the end...not a fantasia, but a march. Anyone know where that is? I am hoping it's these episodes.
There is only one Prairie Home Companion show (out of thousands) that I thought was outstanding, and that is the only one that I long ago downloaded the audio and saved it in my email. They play a wedding march in this episode. If it is the one you want, that would be quite a coincidence.
Link to audio (should play with vlc media player):

THAT IS AMAZING!!!!! This is exactly the episode I am looking for. I have literally spent years looking for it off and on - and then you just happened to have it! Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU!

Speaking specifically about LFO now,
Anyway...can't seem to make the LFO sync with bars (beats)...it will sync with
tempo, that's not the same....in other words, I can change the tempo and
hear LFO changing speed, and being in tempo, but it seems do disregard where in the measure
you are. You can start the sequence and the LFO vs downbeat will be different often.
I've tried 'everything' to get this to work, running pattern sequence, or from DAW,
tried all different settings I could find.
so I'm wondering...
Can it even sync to downbeat?
Need to confirm it can't, or know how !
Thanks for any help anyone can be !
Oh yeah, I bought one (lol)
Then got an FA-06

Popcorn-like fossils provide evidence of environmental impacts on species numbers
The number of species that can exist on Earth depends on how the environment changes, according to new research led by the University of Southampton.
By analysing the fossil record of microscopic aquatic creatures called planktonic foraminifera, whose fossil remains now resemble miniaturised popcorn and date back millions of years, the research provided the first statistical evidence that environmental changes put a cap on species richness.
Lead author of the study, published in the journal Ecology Letters, Dr Thomas Ezard, an evolutionary ecologist at the University of Southampton, said: "While the idea of infinite species on a finite Earth is clearly fanciful, the relevance of upper limits to diversity is still a fractious debate amongst evolutionary biologists, ecologists and palaeontologists.
"We are the first to show statistically that this upper limit is environmentally dependent. It's intuitive that a changing environment alters how many species we see -- the spatial gradient of more species in the tropics than at the poles is pervasive evidence for its large-scale impact.

FSMA final rule on sanitary food transportation
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced that the Food Safety Modernisation Act (FSMA) rule on Sanitary Transportation of Human and Animal Food has now been made final.
The rule is one of seven "foundational rules" proposed to create a modern, risk-based framework for food safety and builds on safeguards envisioned in earlier legislation. It is designed to prevent practices that could create food safety risks during transport of food, such as inadequate refrigeration and poor cleaning of vehicles between loads.
The rule establishes requirements for shippers, loaders, carriers by motor or rail vehicle and receivers involved in the transport of human and animal food to use sanitary practices to ensure food safety.
The requirements established by the rule cover the design and maintenance of vehicles and transportation equipment, temperature control during transport, protection of food from cross contamination, training of carrier personnel and maintaining written records of procedures, agreements and training.
More information about the final rule can be found on the FDA website here.

American travelers bringing home malaria
Cases on the increase, says CDC report
AP Medical Writer
Northwest travel guides
ATLANTA — U.S. malaria cases are at their highest level in four decades, mostly from Americans bringing home an unwelcome souvenir from their travels.
Malaria is not a big problem in the U.S. — there were only 1,925 cases in 2011, including five deaths. But cases were up 14 percent from the previous year, and the most since 1971.
Nearly all the cases were Americans or foreign travelers bringing it into the country. Sixty percent were infected in Africa, where malaria is common.
Malaria is a deadly tropical disease spread by mosquitoes. It's treatable when caught early.
Travelers can protect themselves by taking malaria drugs before and during a trip (and avoiding mosquito beats). Only a fraction of the 2011 cases took the right drugs.
Health officials released the numbers Thursday.

First we shall understand some basic things like need and the idea behind the programming. This discussion will be somewhat lengthy but it will be very helpful for understanding not only basic things but also it will help to understand this concept i.e. what exactly means "The Programming"?
The term programming which is related with the computer has somewhat different meaning than we consider and most of the people are completely unknown about this. So let us see and understand these things.
When we say that any machine /device is automatic, then there is such arrangement in that machine and so the work done by the machine appears to us as automatic. Means the events or processes are carried out in various sections of machine one by one or step by step and finally we get the desired result/output/product. Now if there is any problem in the particular section of machine then it cannot be solved unless the user repairs it.
Today's modern machine/devices and their work appear like wonder or miracle however, it's not a miracle but just a piece of simple science behind it.
Routine Examples
We have a very simple example, when we turn ON the switch to run the fan what happens is that, the current flows in the coil of motor, an electromagnetic action takes place and the torque is produced which gives the rotational motion to the rotor and the blades are connected to this rotor which when rotates provides the air. Now as this process is carried out within seconds or just by pressing one button, we can say it is automatic. But remember that, the fan will rotate continuously unless the current flowing in the coil stops. Therefore when we turn OFF the fan the current stops flowing in the coil, an electromagnetic action disappears and therefore the torque is absent and thus the fan will stop rotating.
Thus from above example we can say that there is a simple science behind it. It would be automatic really if it could rotate without any supply or current.
Therefore for any device/machine/or computer the things are arranged such a way that their work appears as automatic.
Now again the question arises such that some latest devices, like CD player, when there is no disc in its tray player shows the message "no disc". In Xerox machine, when there is no paper in the tray or paper is trapped in the roller, no ink etc. it gives the particular message on the display.
How this happens?
The answer is that, the sensors are used in such machines and the arrangement of the components of machine is made such that it (machine) comes to know about the problem.
Now here comes the key point i.e. if the appeared problem is different than the regular one and which cannot be detected by the sensors or arrangement made to know about the problem then it will give the message "unknown error or problem".
So the conclusion of above discussion is that nothing can happen automatically without any arrangement or reason, specifically the scientific reason. And these things are applicable to any electrical, electronic, non- electrical i.e. mechanical and all kinds of machines.
Also as we discussed above many times the work or process is done in various stages or in various sections step by step, in such case the outcome of one stage is given to other stage and finally the output is received or taken at final stage.
Also one important thing is that when any machine/device works whether it is electrical or mechanical device then that device works on the principle of transformation of energy from one form to other form. And the outcome of any machine or device is just a result of chain reaction in various stages, also the interaction, co-ordination, and collective response of actions taken by various parts and sections of that device which only and basically works on the principle of science.
Remember that when any machine works without electrical supply then that machine or device must be using other type of energy, force or fuel. We must keep in our mind that any kind of machine unless & until it uses a suitable source of energy or means of motivation to operate or work then that machine will never be able to carry out the desired work.
In this way, we now understood that how the things are carried out or how any machine or device works by using the kind of energy with proper design and arrangement within them.
The term Programming which is related with the computer has somewhat different meaning. So, now let us understand the basic idea behind the programming.
In general when we talk with each other or with our friends, we just ask our friend that, what's your tomorrows plan or very often what's your program on tomorrow? And then our friend answers that tomorrow is my brother's birthday so I will get ready early in the morning then we are going to market to do some shopping. Then, at evening we will celebrate my brother's birthday with my family only. After that we will go to Essel-World, from there we will have a great dinner in famous restaurant, after that by watching a late night matinee show we will return to our home. And next day my regular routine will start.
Observe the things!
Now if we observed here the things, we find that it is proposed or pre-planned things. Here in above example the things or events are decided or planned in accordance with the occasion and with respect to time. Also if we think properly when these planned events like shopping, birthday celebration, dinner, etc. collectively, or all the events collectively together will form the whole day program. And thus when all the planned events will get done then we could say that the program was successful.
Now we will consider one more example. It is that, when we talk about any program or use the term program, in general we think about the big event or function or ceremony. And if so, then we will require a proper planning & preparation to make it successful .Let us see, how?
This is now pre-arrangement required for program and we must keep these things in mind to understand rest of the things properly later on.
So, here we suppose that we have to organize a big event i.e."Award distribution function" or program. For that purpose the first thing required as a part of plan or pre-arrangement is that, a committee of near about ten people so that the various works and responsibilities can be distributed among them. After that following responsibilities will be decided & distributed among them.
- Stage arrangement and decoration.
- Anchoring.
- Sound system.
- Electric supply and light arrangement.
- Flower and bouquet arrangement.
- Seating arrangement.
- Guest responsibility.
- Award items to be distributed.
- Security and safety. etc.
- Thus above is the pre-arrangement required & will be done & arranged by the respective person in committee.
Now on the day of program or at the time of program when it will actually start, it will follow the follow the following sequence of events.
- Welcome and bouquet offering to guests.
- Outline or introduction of program and guest.
- Inauguration of program.
- Speeches of peoples regarding the program.
- Award distribution.
- Speech and guidance of guest.
- Acknowledgement and thanking program.
- End of program.
- Thus in this way the above sequence wise each event or together all the events are over, then we can say that the program is over successfully.
So if we observed the things we come to notice that, the program is carried out on the basis of or with the help of pre-arrangement that was done and is executed in proper sequence.
Thus when smaller events come together in proper series or sequence it will form a big event or program.
And friends this is the basic idea behind the computer programming. But please! have a patience and wait for some more time. Because we do the programming with computer means we actually program the processor. And what is this processor? Let's see this in following section.
What is processor?
All of us have been heard about the processor whether it, in consult of computer or mobile. Now this term 'processor' is actually the term "microprocessor", which is an electronic programmable device that performs the arithmetic and logical functions and operates on digital techniques or digital signal.
This microprocessor is nothing but the IC i.e. "Integrated Circuit ", inside which the millions of transistors and thousands of microcircuits are designed and fabricated by using a special integration technique like VLSI and ULSI, and now a days SULSI. In this way the thousands of microcircuits are available on the single chip. And as these thousands of microcircuits work together and processes the data or signal, hence the name "microprocessor".
Now this IC or the circuits inside the processor, as said above works on digital signal i.e. 0's and 1's. These 0's and 1's are actually nothing but the voltage levels. Now there are various logic techniques and depending on that there may be different voltage levels. In case of TTL-Transistor Transistor Logic, the signal '0'(zero) means 0-1.2 Vdc signal and '1'(one) means 3.2-5 Vdc signal. i.e. signal between 0 to 1.2 V is considered as logic '0' and signal between 3.2 to 5 V is considered as logic '1'. This means microcircuits present inside the processor are operated by these voltages i.e. 0's and 1's and desired results are obtained. And our processor is nothing but an 'electronic machine' and as this machine operates on 0's and 1's, it is called as the "machine language".
Here we go now for programming. Suppose that if we want to do any task or work with the help of computer then how one can tell the computer to do that work? Now here we must understand the very basic and important difference between us and computer is that, we are the living beings or human beings and computers or machines are the non-living things. Thus here is the key point, as we are the human beings we have the capabilities to observe, think, understand, learn, decide, talk and hear. By the virtue of which we can understand, learn and manage the things very easily. Also we can take the correct decision depending upon the situation.
Now we know that what is processor and how it is operated and as all the micro-operations are performed by the processor, it is the most important part i.e. brain of computer, without which we can't imagine the computer.
But our problem or question remains as it is, that how one can tell the computer to do the work or how we can get the work done by it? And the answer is that, there is one way to tell him in such a way that it can understand i.e. in his own language which is nothing but the machine language i.e. in the form of 0's and 1's. Remember that both, 'Input' to the processor and 'output' of or from the processor is only in the form of 0's and 1's.
As we discussed above, we have the capabilities to understand, decide and self organize the things, but the processor doesn't have. Therefore it needs to tell the processor each and every possible thing to carry out the work. Means we need to provide each and every information to instruct and guide the processor, so that it will be able to do work correctly. In very simple word, by providing the information to the processor we have to operate the microcircuits inside it, such that we can get the desired output signals or results.
We have to remember that whether the signal is input or output, in both cases it will be in the form of 0's and 1's only.
Again there is new problem now, every time how one can provide the I/P (input) to the processor not only in the form of 0's and 1's but also without any mistake. And also how one can understand the O/P (output) generated or given by the processor which is also in the form of 0's and 1's. Just relax now! this problem can be solved.
But before it, we know that when two persons with different languages want to communicate with each other, then the will require a translator to carry out the communication between them. In the same way here also we are using the translator or method of communication between us and processor by using 'Assembly Language' and 'High Level Language'.
These languages provide the means of communication with processor. Obviously as we are using these languages as translator, these are understandable to us and processor also. In other way we can say that these languages are able to understand our aim and also able to tell the processor, what and how? the processor can do to achieve that aim.
For that purpose we have to provide all the necessary information in the form of 'codes' or 'commands' or 'instructions' in case of High Level Language. And 'Mnemonics' in case of Assembly Language. And such set or group of instructions or codes is called the "PROGRAMMING". The information provided in the form of program is also called "data".
Now, its time to recall the previous discussion that we have done about the working of any automatic device or machine, that we consider as miracle or magical, and specially recall the discussion about the Award distribution function or program. Also recall the pre-arrangement done for the program and how the program was actually run and carried out. Also just remind the basic difference between the capabilities of human beings and the processor. We are recalling all these things again, because here is the consult. Just link these things with each other and the ongoing discussion and see how these are related and connected with each other.
Let's see. How it happens!
Here pre-arrangement for the program is nothing but the program that we will write and thus we will provide all the necessary information to the processor and that also in a proper sequence. As our Award distribution program was carried out in sequence wise events, in the same way here also all the information is read by the processor with the help of 'Assembler' in case of Assembly language, and 'Compiler' in case of high level language.
And thus the assembler and compiler plays the role of assistant and checks whether the information provided to the processor is understandable or not, correct or not in all the way. And if there is some problem or error then the particular error message is generated by that assembler or compiler, depending upon programming language used.
Thus this message generated helps the programmer to do the necessary corrections. Also one of the most important role of assembler or compiler is to guide the processor to access the data and the various resources available. In this way the errors can be corrected, and once the program written or provided to the processor is correct in all the way, the necessary data and the resources are ready, then the program actually runs and executes. Thus we get the desired results.
Now the results or the O/P produced or given by the processor is also in the form of 0's and 1's, which will be converted in such a suitable form that we can understand or access in proper way. Thus the O/P produced may be in the form of text, graphics, video or sound, etc.
Now here the considerable thing about the capabilities between us or human and the processor is due to the reason that, unless we provide the correct information to the processor we could not get the desired results.
Because the processor doesn't know what are wrong and write things, also it cannot think. Here the assembler and compiler are just like a standard error checking tool which is also designed by the human being. Therefore we must keep in mind that to get the desired work done or desired results we must and necessarily provide only correct and all possible information in proper sequence.
Thus the information written in program understand by the processor with the help of assembler and compiler which is nothing but finally in the form of 0's and 1's. And thus processor knows from provided data or information that, what work he has to do?, when?, how?, where?, etc. This means all the necessary information is now available to processor and thus he also will do his job correctly without any mistake.
The computer or processor or machine is the non living thing and is not capable to do anything and will never do anything at its own. It doesn't have the capabilities as like humans. And hence by considering all these things, if we want to get work done by the computer, we or programmer must provide all the possible and correct information or data with necessary resources in proper sequence and in a proper way. And thus the method or way of providing this information is nothing but the "PROGRAMMING".

Employers have struggled to figure out exactly when they must pay employees for pre-work activities ever since the U. S. Supreme Court decided that the Fair Labor Standards Act requires paying workers for the time they spend putting on protective clothing.
It's not enough to say that the time must be of benefit to the employer—it must also be integral and indispensable to the principal activity the employee will perform.
You know that ordinary commuting time isn't paid time. But the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals has said that the time between picking up a company truck and arriving at a worksite is paid time. Now the 11th Circuit has clarified whether an employer has to pay for the time employees spend on a company-provided bus going to the work site.
The bottom line: Unless workers receive instruction or engage in other work-related activity while in transit, the time is unpaid.
Recent case: A group of airport construction workers sued their employer, claiming they should have been paid for time they spent at a security checkpoint and on an employer-provided bus that took them from a the checkpoint to the actual construction site.
The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals disagreed. First, the time spent waiting for screening was outside the employer's control and was not for the employer's benefit. In addition, the time spent on the bus was part of the commute and therefore not paid time, as employees didn't perform any work-related activities on the trip. (Bonilla, et al., v. Baker Concrete Construction, No. 06-12515, 11th Cir., 2007)
Final note: If a supervisor boarded the bus and gave the day's instructions, that might make the time compensable.

For example, a growing puppy with a high metabolic rate will require a diet with higher content of calcium, phosphorus, protein and energy. Likewise for old dogs, a diet with fewer calories and higher content of joint-supporting nutrients are required.
Health Specific Targets
Not only does Advance cater for the age and size of your dog, but specific health issues are also addressed through their nutrition. Advance has designed complete, balanced diets which help manage issues like dental disease, skin issues such as allergic dermatitis, and obesity. Appropriate dog and cat food feeding guides are available on packaging.
Created for your pet
Advance has a diet for puppies, adult small and large breed dogs, senior dogs, and active dogs, as well as diets for dental health, weight loss, sensitive stomach and sensitive skin. For an active working breed adult pooch with a higher requirement for energy, Advance Adult Dog Active is completely balanced for you. Perhaps you have a growing puppy and need a top quality diet to support their high metabolism and growth? See Advance Puppy Plus or Advance Puppy Food Range. Do you have an old dog who needs a diet that will support their joints and provide a low fat yet still completely balanced diet? See Advance Mature Dog.

One of life's biggest challenges can be finding that one true love and staying with them. We have all probably felt like we were in love with someone, only to later find out that it actually was not love, or that the love we had experienced was dying. In these situations, we often need guidance in order to make the best possible choice. Should we move on to someone else? Is it a good time to simply be alone and find out more about ourselves? Or should we fight tooth and nail to make the relationship work? One way to get some answers is through a love tarot reading.
The tarot has symbolism that can help us uncover our own inner wisdom, helping us to make our own decisions according to the dictates of our spirit. If you have ever thought about these questions about love, this article will show you why a love tarot reading could help you.
The tarot has symbolism that represents archetypes of the human condition. These archetypes, first explained by the great Swiss psychiatrist C.G. Jung, are concepts or images that are common to all people, and that we all could come in contact with at sometime in our lives. In a love tarot reading you would come face to face with one or more of these archetypes, and have the opportunity to contemplate them.
The Hermit Symbolism
This contemplation allows the images to come to life in your mind and soul, helping you to make your own decision about your love life. For example, once, when I was wondering about whether I should start dating again after I broke up with a long term partner, I decided to get a love tarot reading. The key card in my reading was the Hermit. This card can symbolize many things, but in the context of my love tarot reading it suggested to me that I should take as much time as I needed to simply be by myself. This turned out to be excellent advice for me at the time.
Improving Your Relationships
Another advantage of a love tarot reading is that it can help you learn how you need to grow in order to maintain a positive relationship. For example, maybe you are in a happy relationship but want to take it to the next level. A love tarot reading can help you learn how to do this.
The Hierophant Insights
Let us say that in your love tarot reading a key card for you is the Hierophant. This can, as all tarot cards can, mean different things in various contexts. But, say, in the context of your love tarot reading it is symbolizing a commitment to the needs of others. You might interpret this as a sign that you need to be more generous to your partner for a time, or that maybe you both need to give more in service of the other. These types of insights are common with tarot readings and it is always your right and responsibility to interpret the reading in the context of your relationship.
Finding Answers
If you have questions about your relationship and want to find those answers that you know are deep inside of your mind and spirit, a love tarot reading might be something that can help you. Why wait? Take advantage of the archetypal wisdom represented in these powerful cards. Click here right now to experience your love tarot reading.

In 2008 I wrote a book comparising Ian Fleming and his creature, James Bond. It is psychological essay, but in a sense it was a biography of both. Working during WW2 in Room 400, with Admiral Godfrey - and both were in Lisbon, where Bond visited the Casino at Estoril that later would inspired him to write Casino Royale - his feverish mind devises plans to fight Axis Forces. One of the tools was the assault unit now described in this book by Nicholas Rankin. The acronym for Assault Unit is AU, the symbol for gold, Golfinger, The Man With the Golden Gun. Alchemy, in short. Ian Fleming translated a paper from Carl Jung about Paracelsus. Did you know it?
Desmond Bristow
I met him in Periana (Malaga) after a press cut that a a friend, Emílio Sousa, send me of a letter to the editor he sent to The Daily Telegraph, about the Lt. Colonel Dudley Clark who acted as a spy in Madrid, disguised as a woman, being an expert on cross-dressing [see here].
In a small villa there he was, with his wife, a quiet life and was surprised by the letter he received from me remembering his past with the Secret Service in Lisbon.
"Derry" has talked with me about his work in Portugal and solve some doubts I had after reading his book of memoirs "A Game of Moles", already translated in Spanish. Here I publish a photograph of both of us [I was quite younger then...]
Later I traced an autographed copy of this book at Foyles, a strange event none of us could explain.
A nice fellow, he receveid me as a friend. Worried about the healtof his spouse he died before her.
I will return on him. Tonight I found his obituary here.
Velasco, the plot against the Duke of Windsor
According with my records, and an article I've publish in a book edited by Cascais Council, the former bullfighter Angél Alcazar de Velasco, Press Attaché of the Spanish Embassy in London, a rabid Falangist, posing as "agent Viktor" brought a letter, signed in July 1940 by the Marquis of Estella, adressed to HH the Duke of Windsor, then at Ricardo Espírito Santo's villa in Cascais, inviting him for move to Spain where he would be safe. This was part of the plot organised by the Germans to kidnap him.This was revealed by Velasco in October 1963 to Michael Bloch, who wrote a book concerning what was called "Operation Willi".
What really happened remain obscure. In his Memoirs [The Heart has its Reasons, page 343] the Duchess wrote: «one day we received a call from a distinguished Spaniard. Our visitor said he had come on a confidential mission on behalf of the Spanish Government to offer us a house in Spain. David thanked him, saying 'A have accepted a post under the British Colonial Office. I inted to serve my country'».
Now that the British National Archives published declassified secret material concerning this Abwehr agent, the true about the Duke of Windsor's saga in Cascais could be confirmed.
Letters from Goa
As the 2nd edition of my book about Operation Longshanks - SOE coup in Marmagoa harbour in 1943 - goes to the publisher I do regret because no access was possible to any document from Goa's Archives [may I ask for help?], despite the case was judged there, and from the Portuguese Ministry of the Navy, and it was ate least two official inquiries conducted by harbour authorities about the nature and cause of the incidents.
The book now quotes a decision from the Portuguese Supreme Court after an appeal made by the crew after their arrest and long proceedings that I could finally trace. Arrested in Aguada some wrote to the family. Here is one of the letters, written by Eng. Gerhard Brandt, from the Ehrenfels ship. See mucha more here with an English translation.
Some mysteries still remain, mainly the fate of Commander Röffer, the Captain of the Ehrenfel and Robert Koch and his wife, Grete, living in Altinho, allegedly shot in Castle Rock, after being kidnapped.

Wedding Packages
and Color SpecialistsMake-up & NailsEuropean FacialsEar
one beauty salon in Santa Fe, every day is a holiday, in both name and spirit.
It's the Holiday Salon in the very heart of the city, just two blocks from the
famous Plaza. And as the salon's devoted clienteleboth local and from all over
the countrywill attest, going there is indeed cause for celebration.
Linda Evans, who has run the operation for almost 40 years, sets the classy tone
of the Holiday Salon. A native Santa Fean, she had the self-confidence to start
her own business shortly after graduating from beauty college in 1961. Today,
with eight specialists on the staff, the salon is one of the largest and busiest
in Santa Fe.
what is the Holiday Salon's secret? "We love our clients," laughs Linda.
there's more to it than that. Location is another key. The salon started far out
on the Cerrillos Road commercial strip. Linda realized, however, that in order
to attract Santa Fe's never-ending stream of visitors in addition to local residents,
she needed to be near the central hotels. And so she moved, 27 years ago, to the
downtown location.
is another secret of success. Serving both men and women, boys and girls, with
more than 40 different listed services, ranging from complete nail care, hair
styling and color to makeup aritistry, the Holiday Salon does it alland then
some. When Kimberly Hull recently joined the staff, she brought with her such
exotic treatments as Chinese-style facials, hot-stone massages, foot reflexology
and a procedure called "ear coning," which removes wax and other impurities from
the ear, to improve taste, smell, hearing, balance and overall wellness.
energizes the Holiday Salon staff more than special occasions such as weddings
and parties. Many times a year they coordinate the styling for large events; and
every Halloween, faithful customers come in for outrageous fantasy makeup. The
salon covers all looks, from conservative to wild, for people of all ages.
to its community as well as its clientele, the Holiday Salon participates regularly
in charitable fund-raising activities. Earlier this year several clients served
as models in a fantasy fashion show that raised $3,500 for the New Mexico Children's
to Linda, her work can be described in three words: "challenging, exciting and
rewarding." A seven-year client sums up the Holiday Salon in a sentence: "They
are experts in what they do, and are helpful every step of the way." The people
who pass through the doors of the Holiday Salon are not just clients, but also
Salon, 202 Galisteo, at the corner of Water Street, in the Otra Vez in Santa Fe
Building, 505-983-7594. Monday-Sunday, 9 a.m.-5 p.m., or by appointment at other
times. Walk-ins welcome. Haircuts for men begin at $25, for women at $45. Full
services provided for permanent waves, hair coloring, nails, skin and makeup.
Out-of-town and hotel guests must secure appointments with MasterCard or Visa.
Free parking is available adjacent to the Salon.

Game center manager irked at inspector's delay in Town of Niagara
TOWN OF NIAGARA – The manager of Oogie Games said he doesn't understand why the town building inspector won't let him play.
Matthew J. Walter, chief operating officer for the video game center, told the Town Board on Tuesday that he wants to open a seventh location at a plaza at 2404 Military Road but that he has not received any directions from the Building Inspector's Office.
He said his store is "absolutely complete" and has been ready to open since Jan. 14. All he needs is clearance from the town.
Walter acknowledged that the problem started when he "screwed up" by not submitting design plans to the building inspector. But when he realized his error, he said, he turned in plans signed by an engineer Jan. 18. He thought that because he was not changing the physical structure of the building itself, he did not have to submit plans.
To date, he has not heard from the office except for a "stop work" order that was issued because he was accused of being open for business.
The only activity in the store has been workers preparing for business, according to Walter. He denied being open for customers and said a video security tape would prove that.
Building Inspector Charles E. Haseley was not at the meeting.
Walter said he has tried to contact Haseley without success and is puzzled about the lack of progress. All the electrical work has been inspected, he said, and the plans are stamped. He contended that the one-page plans would be simple to review and should take the inspector about an hour to do.
So far, the company has spent $2,500 to $3,000 a week on employees and has invested about $150,000 in stock and building costs, Walter said. Supervisor Steven C. Richards said he would set up a meeting with himself, Walter and Haseley to discuss the issue.
In another matter, the board put off a plan to restructure the fees charged to parties that use the facilities at Veterans Memorial Park. A proposal to charge residents $25 a day to use a pavilion and nonresidents $35 did not make it to a vote.

soundcard not found

Created attachment 192061 [details]
screenshot of first page of SoundCardDetection
I think the other device is just sound and video input from the TV card, which
still works.
I'd tell you more, but hwbrowser seems to be broken. I'll file a bug on that next.
The sound device is on the MB. I have no separate sound "card" in the system.
Is this bug related to BZ#283371 by any chance?
I don't think so.
But the screenshot looks sane, does the sound work?
If not, can you please run the latest system-config-soundcard, switch to the
"System" page and try to "Reset configuration files"?
There seems to be an awful lot of churn in the sound systems, but currently
system-config-soundcard is working for me. It finds the nvidia sound device and
plays the test sound. Its just a shame that nothing else seems to recognize
the device that was found. The Volume control on the panel says it can't find
any elements or devices to control. Tvtime, which used to have sound even when
system-config-soundcard didn't work, now can't access /dev/video because
something else broke the permissions! If I chmod 666 /dev/video, the video
works but now no sound. Secondlife binaries, no sound.
Basically the sound system is a mess. Fixing the entire sound system should be
a blocker for FC8!
Oh yes, selecting "System" tab and "Reset configuration files" produces:
Unable to remove kernel modules. You need to reboot your box
for the changes to take effect.
"Reload audio drivers" does the same thing.
(In reply to comment #9)
> Oh yes, selecting "System" tab and "Reset configuration files" produces:
> Unable to remove kernel modules. You need to reboot your box
> for the changes to take effect.
> "Reload audio drivers" does the same thing.
It's not a bug. Your audio is used by some other application so the modules
can't be removed from kernel.
Okay, closing as fixed for now.
