The following editorial appeared recently in the Chicago Tribune:
There's stunning news from State College, Pa. Jerry Sandusky, a former defensive coordinator with Penn State's football team, has been charged with sexually abusing eight boys over 15 years.
Two high-ranking Penn State officials — Athletic Director Tim Curley and Senior Vice President Gary Schultz — have been charged with failure to report the allegations to authorities and with lying to a grand jury. Curley is on leave. Schultz has resigned. Both men deny wrongdoing.
If those charges are true, two school leaders had reason to suspect a predator was on the loose and they kept it all under wraps. They didn't report information that police could have used to investigate.
There's a lot of focus on what legendary Penn State coach Joe Paterno did and didn't do in this case. When a graduate assistant told Paterno in 2002 about an abuse allegation against Sandusky, he immediately reported what he knew to Curley. Paterno didn't contact law enforcement authorities, but he was not required to do so by law.4 comments on this story
"The failure of top university officials to act on reports of Sandusky's alleged sexual misconduct, even after it was reported to them in graphic detail by an eyewitness, allowed a predator to walk free for years — continuing to target new victims," said Pennsylvania Attorney General Linda Kelly. "Equally disturbing is the lack of action and apparent lack of concern among those same officials, and others who received information about this case, who either avoided asking difficult questions or chose to look the other way."
Chose to look the other way. There is criminal behavior. And there are decisions in life that haunt.

text: A rising up in the number of children suffered with autism in last decades is largely on account of doctors involving kids with less acute behavioural symptoms, an international research has found. The research found the 20 times grow about the last 30 years was not due to there have been more children being born with the disorder. The lead author of the research, described at the time that researchers knew there was a significant increment of autism over the years, they did not realize why, and he inform that what they really found is that the major grow in these numbers were due to children who had milder autistic signs. The research supplied the first proof internationally of a decreasing over time in the behavioural seriousness of individuals diagnosed with autistic disorder, in time the lead author of the research inform that the research results did not necessarily propose a jostle to discover a clinical explanation for children's behavioural problem. The old idea about the autism around two or three decades was the children who had mental disabilities and had in fact extreme problems learning to talk, but now know that autism presents all over a spectrum, and so there can be kids who are completely significantly mentally disabled and also individuals without any mental disability.

Miami Heat vs. Indiana Pacers - 5/24/14
Indiana Pacers (56-26) at Miami Heat (54-28)
NBA Basketball: Saturday, May 24, 2014 at 8:30 pm (AmericanAirlines Arena)
The Line: Miami Heat -7 -- Over/Under: 182 See the Latest Odds
The series shift to South Beach as the Miami Heat collide with the Indiana Pacers in Game 3 on Saturday night.
Head to head, the home team is 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings. The Heat are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 vs. NBA Central, 5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games vs. a team with a winning road record and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 3 or more days rest. The Pacers on the other hand are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 road games and 16-5-1 ATS in their last 22 games playing on 3 or more days rest, but just 0-5 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600.
I'm sure I'm not the only one, but I feel like this series is right where it should be at one game apeice. While Indiana's big win in Game 1 (even though it was only technicially a 10-point victory in the end) was pretty surprising, the result in Game 2 went pretty much how would of thought with the Heat hanging on for a tough fought 87-83 win on Tuesday night. Having said that, it was the first time the home team has lost in their last 10 meetings.
So what can we expect for Game 3? Well, the Pacers did take the first game in Miami in last seasons playoffs, although that was a totally different situation and Game 1 instead of Game 3. The big news coming into Saturday's night game will be the health of Indiana's Paul George who suffered a concussion in their Game 2 loss on Tuesday night. It is still unclear if George will take the court in Game 3.
Although the Pacers have won five of six on the road in postseason play, the uncertainty over George must be a worry. While I do think he will take the court on Saturday night, I still like the Heat to cover the spread, but just. Miami has won four straight at home over Indi by an average of 12 points per contest and I just think they will be too strong in-front of their home crowd....

Everyone has the capacity to do good deeds whether you have money or not. Celebrities often get noticed for their acts of goodwill because money has a massive impact. We can't help but take note of their generosity because it is often on a huge scale. That being said, regular people without oodles of money do amazing things too with astounding results.
We've put together a list of remarkable acts of kindness that will surely amaze you. Some can be attributed to the rich and famous and some can be attributed to the guy next door. Regardless, read on to be stunned and inspired by the human heart.
Handsome and selfless is a charming combination. This megastar built 109 homes in the hard-hit New Orleans Lower Ninth Ward after Hurricane Katrina struck. His Make It Right foundation spent $26.8 million through the process, giving families new hope out of a terrible tragedy. Click "Start Slideshow" to see which comedian tipped a bartender $1,000 on a $70 tab.
25. Amy Shumer Tips Big

24. Keanu Reeves Donates Big to His Crew
Reeves shared his Matrix wealth with the movie's SFX crew, reportedly $75 million. Plus he gave to each of the stunt crew a Harley Davidson. Big actor, big heart.
23. Lebron James Donate Shoes
This basketball superstar with a towering presence and a big heart, surprised a shoe shopper in Cleveland by buying him two pairs of Lebron's branded shoes. One pair was for autographing and the other pair was for wearing. No fool is going to smudge Lebron's signature by stepping on it. Click "Next" below to see why this celebrity donated two pairs of identical shoes to the same person.
22. Airlines Break Policies to Evacuate People and Pets
As devastating wildfires raged through Fort McMurray in Alberta, Canada in the spring of 2016, citizens needed to be evacuated and fast. You'd never leave a beloved family member behind so how could residents leave their pets? Luckily they didn't need to. Several airlines broke their pet policies and let evacuees and their pets travel together in the passenger areas of planes. This is such a heartwarming story of togetherness during loss.
21. Bon Jovi's Restaurant Trades Meals for Volunteering
Bon Jovi, quintessential rocker, lives by his famous lyrics "I'll be there for you". His New Jersey Restaurant, Soul Kitchen, doesn't take reservations or monetary payment if you don't have it. You can volunteer your time in exchange for your meal. Soul Kitchen has served 56% of its meals to pay-by-volunteering customers. Who knew such a worldwide phenomenon could be such a community advocate?
20. Russell Brand Hangs out with Homeless
Brand keeps himself busy by acting and being a funnyman but also by spending time with homeless people. This man really recognizes that the homeless are people too and that they have interesting stories to tell. Sometimes it's dinner, sometimes it's breakfast, sometimes it's just hanging out on the corner, but whatever it is, it's heartwarming.
19. Dry Cleaning Offers Free Service to Those in Need
Going on a job interview and don't have a clean outfit? This drycleaner will clean yours for free. A regular person helping regular people warm our hearts. Can't get better than that.
18. Nora Roberts Supports Literacy
Roberts, the American novelist, has donated upwards of $4 million to support literacy via her organization. This generous philanthropist also supports children's initiatives and other charitable programs.
17. Gilligan (Not of the Island) Protects Someone's Car
This observant and kind do-gooder decided to save someone's upholstery, and salvage their day, by covering an open car window with a plastic bag during a rainstorm. Wet bum cheeks are a sure-fire way to have your day head south but not when Gilligan is around.
16. Florence Welch Visits Sick Fan
This uber-talented British pop star, who performs as Florence and the Machine, gave a private performance to an adoring fan suffering from cancer. Florence visited a hospice after the teenage fan was unable to attend her concert due to her illness. An amazingly human act of kindness rises above fame and fortune to reveal Welch's true giving character.
15. JK Rowling Memorializes Fan
Rowling named a character in her fourth book, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, after a fan that was diagnosed with leukemia. Rowling actually wrote the ending of the book early for this little girl, but she passed away before reading it. Now she'll be forever memorialized as a Rowling character – Natalie of Gryffindor.
14. Woody Harrelson Gifts a Panhandler
Approached by a panhandler in New York, Harrelson gave her his spare change. All $600 of it. This big-hearted actor definitely made her day.
13. Mailbox Bandit Repairs the Damage He Caused
Run over some stranger's mailbox? It happens. What is one supposed to do? Well you could drive off and hope they don't call the cops. Or you could drive to the closest Home Depot, get materials to repair the mailbox, and build it again better than it was before. We vote for the latter, and so did this guy. This is the best ending to a hit and run we've ever heard.
12. Lady Gaga Stands up for Sexuality
We all know Lady Gaga knows how to make a statement. She took a real stand at one of her concerts after learning a fan killed himself as a result of being bullied about his sexuality. She dedicated the concert to him and portrayed his image throughout the show to demonstrate that his suffering won't be forgotten.
11. Firefighter Rescues a Dog
An off-duty firefighter, just coming home, noticed that his neighbor's garage was on fire. He saw a mama dog and several puppies come out of the building but noticed one pup was trapped inside. The selfless firefighter entered the building to save the dog, even performing CPR on him once he was extracted.
The original owners didn't come to claim the dog so the firefighter adopted him. This seems to be a case of "meant to be".
10. Tyler Perry Replaces a Woman's Stolen Car
Keen to help out those in need, Perry replaced a woman's vehicle after it was stolen from her driveway. The woman suffers from cerebral palsy so this was no ordinary van. It was specially equipped to enable her to drive it. We trust those thieves had a hard time making a profit on that niche market vehicle.
9. Gary Sinise Improves Veterans' Lives
Moved by his role as Lt. Dan in Forrest Gump, Sinise has turned to helping disabled veterans, but not necessarily in typical ways. He recently took 50 wounded vets to Disneyland and, of course, took care of all expenses.
8. Zach Galifianakis Pays Rent for an Old Friend
This leading funnyman moved a woman from the streets to her very own apartment. Recognizing her from his younger years, he wanted to help by covering her rent. Reports also indicate that he took her to see his The Hangover III première, just icing on the cake.
7. SeaWorld Team Rescues Humpback Whale
A massive humpback whale became entangled in hundreds of feet of fishing line south of LA. In a lengthy rescue attempt, the SeaWorld team was able to remove most of the line giving the whale a good prognosis. The team worked for many hours, even following the whale great distances to complete the job.
6. Ryan Gosling Saves a Woman's Life
Gosling saved a woman's life as she was about to walk into oncoming traffic. We'd all do this, right? But it's a bigger deal when a dashing A-list celebrity saves your life. A British journalist was glancing the wrong way to look for traffic as she stepped off the curb in New York City. About to get run over, Gosling put his arm out to stop her.
5. Oprah Donates Big
Oprah's own foundation, the Oprah Winfrey Foundation, helps those in need with education initiatives, with a specific focus on women and children. This big-hearted superstar has helped countless people through her show and continues to do so with her thought-leadership and wealth. Her total donations have reached upwards of $40 million.
4. Bigoted Act Sparks Gofundme Support
An Oxford student "activist" from Cape Town refused to tip a waitress because she was white. Why? Well he seemed to equate her as a symbol of oppression imposed upon South Africa by white people. He took pleasure in upsetting her, boasting about his actions on Facebook. It backfired. Folks saw his behavior as bullying and antiquated. A Gofundme page, set up by strangers for the waitress, has since raised over $6,000 in her support.
3. Two Brave Youngsters Rescue a Lamb
When animals are at risk, some people will go through amazing hurdles to save them. These two brave boys saved this lamb from being washed away in a flood. You can see that one young man got washed away himself. Heroic efforts.
2. Adele Makes a House Call
We love Adele. And after hearing of this, we love her even more. Adele stopped by the home of a seriously ill 12-year-old fan before performing. The young girl, who has found inspiration in Adele through her illness, was over the moon. Uber-talented and very grounded, Adele proves that her likeable persona is real.
1. Donald Trump gives a soon to be Orphan a College Scholarship.
Trump's charitable endeavors are famous from opening up his exclusive Florida club once a week to wounded vets to helping raising millions of dollars in various charities each and every year. In fact we know he employes at least one person full time to make sure his donations are spent wisely.
But while on the campaign trail in Wisconsin a young woman who was diagnosed with a terminal illness and was helped by Trump in 2005 found her way to the microphone to share her story. After, there was not a dry eye in the house. I think this one you have have to see for yourself.

In the article above, you state;
"Veolia Transportation, which operates the Regional Transit Authority (RTA), drew fire at the beginning of this month for drastically reducing the hours of the Algiers ferry, which traditionally had crossed the Mississippi River until midnight at no cost to passengers (cars were charged $1)."
The above is incorrect. Veolia did not reduce the hours of the ferry system and has yet to enter into an agreement with the LA DOTD. I have copied the link to the proposed fare structure in English, Spanish and Vietnamese; http://www.norta.com/Media/news-press-arch….

Frederick William Faber was born into a family of Anglican divines on 28 June 1814 at the vicarage of Calverley in Yorkshire. He entered Balliol College, Oxford, in 1833. While still an undergraduate he began to compose poems and hymns. He graduated as a Bachelor of Arts in 1836 and got a fellowship at University College. He made friends with William Wordsworth and became a follower of John Henry Newman.
In 1839 Faber received priest's orders and, from 1840, worked as a tutor. While touring the continent he learned to love Catholic forms of worship, some of which he introduced into his parish of Elton, Huntingdonshire, from 1842 onwards. Faber was very much criticised for his Catholic leanings, which ultimately led him to embrace …

Media reports suggest that Sachin's name was not recommended for this year's Bharat Ratna. Sources claim that the BCCI did not send across any names, including that of Sachin's. The Sports Ministry has recommended the names of hockey legend Major Dhyan Chand and mountaineer Tenzing Norgay for the India's highest civilian honour.
The voices supporting Sachin receiving the Bharat Ratna was getting louder by the day. With the news coming out that India's favourite cricket player will not get the coveted title this year is sure to cause disappointment to a majority of India's cricket lovers. Among the voices supporting Sachin includes Anna Hazare as well.
The Bharat Ratna earlier did not include sportsmen and it was only this year that this category was introduced. The Home Ministry gave its go ahead after Sports Minister Ajay Maken wrote a letter to the PMO seeking to include the sports category.
The various fields for which the Bharat Ratna was bestowed was restricted to literature, art and science. The last recipient of the coveted title was noted vocalist Pandit Bhimsen Joshi in 2008.

If you want to become a serious poker player online or offline, you need to know the poker, hand rankings or you not know if you have a good hand or a bad hand. Of course, if you are use to playing with friends at home, you are more than likely not playing by the rules that are seen at casinos. All casinos, poker rooms online, and offline play by the same rules. The first thing you must know is that all 52 cards are used to play poker in most cases; however, the joker may or may not be used. The joker is often only seen in Draw Poker games and is not used in Texas Hold'em, other hold'em games, and stud poker.Cards are ranked from highest to lowest with the Ace at the top. The King, Queen, and Jack come next in that order and then 10 all the way down to the 2 often referred to as the deuce. The Ace can be used at the top or the bottom as a one for straights or even for the lowest card. In practically all poker games, only the five best cards are counted even if you are playing a seven-card game. Here is the breakdown so you will know if you have a good hand.If a joker is in play, the best hand a person can have is a five of a kind with five Aces at the top of the list. If no joker is in play, the best hand is the straight flush. A straight flush is five cards of the same suit such as all spades, all hearts, all clubs, or all diamonds. Of course, the cards must be in order to be a straight such as five diamonds from 5 to 10. A Royal Flush is the best hand, which includes the Ace, King, Queen, Jack, and Ten. Four of a kind comes next. All four cards must be the same card, such as all tens, kings, etc… with the higher the card ranking the better. The best of course would be four Aces.Next is the Full House. A full house is three cards that have the same rank and then a pair. The higher the three cards the better such as 3 Kings and 2 5's. Of course, the person with the higher three cards will beat other players.The flush is next. A flush is cards of the same suit, but not in order. This means you can have five hearts of any rank. The person with the highest rank card will win if everyone has a flush. The straight is next with five cards in order from various suits. This means you can have 1 ace space, 1 diamond king, 1 heart queen, 1 club jack, and 1 spade 10. The suit does not matter.Three of a kind means the same card such as all three kings. The next is a two pair of the same such as 2 Aces and 2 fives. The last one is one pair such as 2 tens. Of course if no one has any of the above, the person with the highest card will win the hand.

Life in the woods – our forest courses
The forest gave us shelter, timber, firewood, raw materials for all sorts of tools and other items. There we could hunt, gather mushrooms and berries and other edibles, there was our pharmacy …
The forest was our home.
It is not long since we abandoned the forest for a modern life.
On the way, we got lost…
experience the forest with all your senses, learn everything about it – and get closer to yourself.

My g-grandmother's obituary says that she was "converted at about 13 years of age, and united with the Methodist Episcopal Church in Burlington, KS". As she was born in 1858, this would place the family in Burlington about 1870 or 1871, perhaps as early as 1869.
Can you help me locate someone with records of that church, as there must have been some listing. Mary Jane Wanamaker, born in Crawfordsville, Indiana, August 29, 1858. Her parents were Nicholas Wanamaker and Francis Beiter (also spelled Bituer, Bitter, or Bieter). Any direction at all would be much appreciated.

Avon was a farming community about eight miles down the Neosho River from Burlington, Coffey County, Kansas. According to my great-great grandmother, who lived there; most of the settlers arrived with the original "Hampden Colony" in 1856. It was never really a town, but was definitely a "community". The 1860 and 1865 census reports showed "Avon township". I think the Avon community became a part of the town of Leroy.

I'm searching for descendants and county look-ups for Hiram BROTHERTON, b. about 1839 in Vigo Co., INdiana. He married Sarah PATTON 1865 in Indiana and he is the son of Abel BROTHERTON and Sarah WEPTON (or Webton/Welpbton). I believe this is the same Hiram that was on the 1870 census index in Coffey Co., Burlington Twp - although I don't have access to the Kansas Census. I know that this man was at the town of Winfield in Cowley Co., KS in 1903 according to his brother John's obituary. I have much to share on Hiram's siblings and parents, but would like to add more with other descendants help. Also, I'd appreciate any help with Census look-ups from 1870, 1880, 1900 & 1910 - and cemetery lookups if he can be found in Cowley Co. perhaps.

Stayed one night in June whilst travelling from San Francisco to Grand Canyon. Only expecting a very basic place to put the head down for the night. Was pleasantly surprised athat the Motel was actually very adequate. Very basic furnishings but clean and tidy and all we wanted. Reception were very pleasant. We weren't aware of any restaurants close by so we went by car into town which was not far and pleanty of choice there. Overall the Motel was cheap and it did all we wanted.

The Maryland Wing is hosting a Warrior Challenge at Gunpowder Military Reservation on Notchcliff Road in Glen Arm, MD from 22 Sept - 24 Sept 2017. The MDWG Warrior Challenge is a fun activity that reinforces the principles of leadership, teamwork & problem solving while at the same time allowing cadets to interact with cadets from around the Wing. Teams will be determined upon arrival at Gunpowder so that each group is diversified containing cadets from multiple squadrons and various CAP grades.
Squadron Commanders and Deputy Commanders of Cadets are requested to relay this information to your unit and encourage the widest participation by the cadets. Each squadron should plan to send at least one senior member with their group. The senior members will man the various stations, escort the teams or help out in the mess hall.
Our challenge will be a mash-up of SurvivorTM and Amazing RaceTM featuring events such as orienteering, fire-starting, scavenger hunt, puzzles, brain work, etc. Teams will score points at each of the ten (10) stations and the team with the most points will be crowned the MDWG Warrior Team for 2017. Cadets will also compete in a tug-o-war competition just for fun; it will not be graded/scored as part of the competition.
All those who wish to participate must complete the registration form. In addition, cadets will need to complete CAPFs 31 signed by their parents/guardian (including their squadron commander's approval), CAPF 32, CAPF 160, CAPF 161 and CAPF 163 (minor's only). Senior members attending will complete CAPF 17 (with all approvals), CAPF 160 and CAPF 161. Completed forms should be scanned and emailed to firstname.lastname@example.com no later than September 15, 2017.
The cost for the weekend is $30 per person which includes all meals on Saturday, breakfast on Sunday and materials for the competition. Snacks and drinks will also be provided for the weekend. Payment should be made through PayPal. You may bring your own snacks which must be kept in the mess hall as we'll be sleeping in the woods and there are critters roaming about.
The primary uniform for the weekend will be BDUs/ABUs (or corporate equivalent), but participants should also bring PT gear, including tennis shoes with them. Participants may arrive in civvies on Friday and they can be worn at night during down time. Our lodging will be in large, military tents on concrete slabs.

Mix Pet of the Week: Lexi
When I walked up front and saw Lexi sitting in my lobby, all I could say was she is such a beautiful dog. If I didn't already have 3 animals, I would have looked at Patti and said, we aren't taping a video today. She is coming home with me. Lexi needs a good home and she is available for adoption at the Amarillo SPCA.

Defending champion Novak Djokovic defeated Spain's Guillermo Garcia-Lopez 4-6, 6-3, 6-1 to reach the Monte Carlo Masters semi-finals on Friday.
Djokovic, the second seed, looked to be heading towards the same possible upset fate which befell eight-time champion Rafael Nadal earlier in the day when the Spaniard lost to David Ferrer 7-6 (7/1), 6-4.
But Djokovic held his nerve, saving two key break points in the seventh game of the second set to turn the tide against the winner of the Casablanca claycourt title last weekend.
Djokovic will face off in a Saturday semi-final against Roger Federer, whom he beat in last month's Indian Wells final but lost to in Dubai in February. Federer earlier beat Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France 2-6, 7-6, 6-1 in a close three-setter.

David Slade Wants Josh Hartnett to Lead His 'Daredevil' Adaptation?
by Ethan Anderton
June 18, 2012
Source: Empire
We haven't heard any substantial updates on the forthcoming reboot of Daredevil in over a year. Last March, director David Slade (30 Days of Night, Twilight: Eclipse and Hard Candy) was attached to the project, and a few months later "Fringe" writer and producer Brad Caleb Kane was hired to write the script. Since then development has been stagnant, but now we have a very small thread to hold onto for the future of the Marvel reboot. On Twitter, a fan expressed hope for Slade to get working on Daredevil soon, but it's his mention of a name for the title hero role and Slade's positive reaction that is turning some heads now.
A fan (noticed by Empire) said, "I hope [David Slade] gets back to the Daredevil stuff soon, and I hope, maybe, Josh Hartnett could finally get a Marvel role." Slade merely responded, "You and me both." Now, that's far from a confirmation that Slade wants Hartnett to star, as he could merely just be eager to get to work on Daredevil, but this opens up the discussion as to whether or not Josh Hartnett, who hasn't really been at the top of his game lately, would be right for the role as blind superhero Matt Murdock and his acrobatic crime fighting skills.
Hartnett worked with Slade on 30 Days of Night, and for those keeping score, he also starred in Pearl Harbor with Ben Affleck, who starred in the awful adaptation years back. It's certainly an interesting thought, but you would think Marvel would want a more bankable name for the role. Of course, Chris Hemsworth wasn't well known before taking the lead role in Thor and he was surrounded by bigger names to help sell the film. That could easily happen this time as Hartnett is probably more well known than Hemsworth, but lately he hasn't been in high profile projects and his glory days were nearly 10 years ago.
Is there anyone else who could fill the shoes better than Hartnett? Though he's been faltering at the box office lately, Taylor Kitsch wouldn't be a bad choice, though he might be just a little too young. However, I'm going to venture outside of the normal leading man casting pool and say that "Dexter" star Michael C. Hall would be perfect for Daredevil. He has a subtle haunted nature about him and would be perfect for a character like Matt Murdock. There's a chance Hall might be slightly too old for the role, but Robert Downey Jr. seems to manage just fine as Iron Man. Any other suggestions?

text: I've had my G1 since August and it's been working perfectly fine up until a couple weeks ago. I updated the hardware that rogers wireless insisted every G1 user were to do. After I did that it went downhill. Sometimes when I try to make outgoing phone calls the "dialing" screen appears but there's no ring tone for atleast a minute and then the "dialing" screen just disappears and it returns to the previous screen. As for incoming calls, I've tried to call my G1 from a land line and another cell line and says that my phone is off. It's the same for text messages, if I try to send one when this problem is happening it just fails and I can't recieve text messages either. Another problem is sometimes there will be no internet connection what so ever. Oh and lately it's been managing to drain it's own battery literally overnight in an 8 hour period without being touched. If I turn my phone on and off it usually solves the problem but now this problem is occuring too often, so I call my provider and they told me how to reboot the phone so I did. A few hour after it started happening again, so I called them again. They sent me a new phone but it has the same problems more or less. Am I doing something wrong? I want to call back rogers and let them know it's happening again but I just don't want to be accused of lying. Help, Please!

HP plans 3,000 to 4,000 job cuts over the next three years
Brain-computer interface lets a man with a spinal injury feel robotic fingers
HP isn't out of the woods just yet. In an address to this year's 2016 Securities Analyst Meeting, Dion Weisler, the President and CEO of the newly formed HP Inc., attempted to put a positive spin on a tricky situation.
"I'm proud of the progress we have made in our first year as the new HP. Our focus is clear, our execution is solid, and we are positioned well for the next step in our journey," he said. "We are confident in our strategy and believe it will continue to produce reliable returns and cash flow, while also enabling HP to invest in differentiated innovation and long-term growth."
The growth the company's top executive is hoping for, however, will involve some series restrictions. Among them is the fact that the company will be letting go some 3,000 to 4,000 employees over the next three years, according to a new filing with the SEC.
The details are still fairly vague, with the report noting that "changes to the workforce will vary by country, based on local legal requirements and consultations with employee works councils and other employee representatives, as appropriate."
As per the plan, the company anticipates savings of $200 million to $300 million per year starting in 2020, according to the paperwork. Prior to that, however, there will be $350 million to $500 million in charges for the company, including $200 million attributable to labor costs.
The numbers are a sizable chunk of a total workforce of around 50,000 people. Earlier this year, the company — which is one of two successors to technology giant Hewlett-Packard (alongside Hewlett Packard Enterprise) — announced plans to cut 3,000 jobs by year's end.

Spain had made a peace with France in 1794; and now in August 1796, an alliance, offensive and defensive, was concluded between the two powers. This put Sir John Jervis in a very critical position, as the united French and Spanish fleets amounted to 38 ships of the line, while Sir John, who was at Martello Bay, had but 15. It was determined accordingly, to evacuate Corsica, as the power of the French republic, and the deeds of their countrymen, Buonaparte, were awaking feelings in the inhabitants that were not amicable to England. This was completed on the 2nd November, and Sir John and all his fleet sailed from Corsica, and escorted the transports to Gibraltar, which was reached on December 11th. On the 16th he went on to Lisbon to meet some expected reinforcements from home.
Here he remained until the 18th January, when he sailed with 10 ships only; but on February 6th 5 more joined from England, when his force consisted of the following line-of-battle ships, with which he cruised, awaiting news of the enemy.
|HMS Victory
|Admiral Sir John Jervis, KB., Capt. Robert Calder. Capt. George Grey.
|HMS Britannia
|Vice-Admiral Charles Thompson, Capt. Thomas Foley.
|HMS Barfleur
|Vice-Admiral Hon. W. Waldergrave. Capt. James R. Dacres.
|HMS Prince George
|Rear-Admiral Willaim Parker. Capt. John Irwin.
|HMS Blenheim
|Capt. Thomas L. Frederick
|HMS Namur
|Capt. James H. Whitshed
|HMS Captain
|Commodore Horatio Nelson, Capt. Ralph Miller.
|HMS Goliath
|Capt. Sir Charles Knowles, Bart.
|HMS Excellent
|Capt. Cuthbert Collingwood
|HMS Orion
|Capt. Sir James Saumarez
|HMS Colossus
|Capt. George Murray
|HMS Egmont
|Capt. John Sutton
|HMS Culloden
|Capt. Thomas Troubridge
|HMS Irresistible
|Capt George Martin
|HMS Diadem
|Capt George H. Towry
On the 13th, when off Cape St. Vincent, Commodore Nelson in the Minerve frigate, joined and reported having been chased by the Spaniards. This was a fleet of 27 sail of the line, which had passed the Straits on the 5th, and was working up for Cadiz, with the intention of picking up more ships there, and then proceeding for Brest to join the French.
The morning of the 14th, the 'glorious St. Valentine's day, 1791, broke thick and misty, but as soon as daylight made its appearance, the Spaniards were sighted to the S.W.; one by one they were made out through the fog, and reported to the Admiral, who received the report of their increasing numbers with imperturbability, and when the whole 27 sail were fully in sight, and Captain Calder expressed some hesitation about the wisdom of coping with such odds, he exclaimed, "Enough Sir, were there fifty I will go through them."
The Spanish fleet were much scattered and in no particular order, but some eight ships were considerably to leeward of the rest, leaving a distinct gap, which was, however, rapidly narrowing, by the nineteen ships to windward running down to join their companions. For this gap the British ships pushed with all sail in a compact line, HMS Victory in the centre. A few minutes hesitation might have been fatal, for had the enemy got all his ships together, the 15 English vessels would have fought against great odds; but Jervis was a bold Commander, to whom indecision was unknown, and who was well aware of the value of the presence of a man like Nelson, and, indeed, it was mainly by the latter's daring manoeuvre at a later period of the action, that the Spaniards were prevented from effecting their junction.
As it was, they were just in time, and as soon as the weather division of Spaniards saw the head of the English line between them and their friends, they hauled to the wind on the opposite tack, hoping to get round the rear of the British line, and so effect their purpose. Their lee division still stood determinedly on, and attempted to cut the British line ahead of the Victory herself, but she, by her rapid advance, frustrated this, and forced the Principe de Asturias, of 112 guns, to put about to avoid a collision. The Spanish ship, which bore the flag of one of their Rear- Admirals, let fly her broadside as she shot up in the wind, but either from the obscurity caused by smoke, or by mistaken orders this was done at the wrong time, and extraordinary to relate, not a shot struck the Victory. With a ringing cheer of derision from her crew, the British flag-ship re-paid the compliment, but with interest, for as the Spanish three- decker slowly turned round and presented her stern to her, the whole of the Victory's guns were discharged into it with destructive effect. The Spaniard ran straight away to leeward, followed by his whole division, and until the close of the day, never appeared again in the action.
In the mean time, the weather division, as has been said, were intending to round the rear of our line, and so join their ships to leeward, but Nelson, in the Captain, the third ship of the line from the rear, saw their object the instant their van bore up together astern, and immediately wearing round, plunged fearlessly into their midst. He was followed by the Culloden and Excellent, and the Spanish Admiral, daunted by this spirited conduct, hauled to the wind, and gave up the attempt.
The map may help to the comprehension of the position of affairs at this period of the action.
The other British ships in the meantime were tacking in succession, and one after another came into action to the support of their comrades.
The Victory engaged the Salvador del Mundo, A 112 gun ship, which had already been mauled by the Excellent, and forced her to strike her colours. This was at 3 p.m., and shortly afterwards. Sir John, who was discreet as he was bold, observing that about 24 Spaniards (composed of the 8 lee ships, and odd ships of the weather division, who were all fresh) were bearing down on them, made the signal to close up to cover the prizes; this was immediately done, and the Spaniards, not liking the look of the compact line of the British, hauled off, and made no effort to continue the action.
In this battle, Nelson particularly distinguished himself, as in his little 74, the HMS Captain he boarded in succession, and took, the San Nicholas of 80, and San Josefs of 112 guns; the Victory passing just at that time, gave the gallant Captain three cheers. Nelson went on board the Victory after the action, and was warmly embraced by Sir John Jervis, on the very quarter-deck on which he was to fall, covered with glory, eight years later, and not far from the place where this battle had been fought.
But for all these details we must refer the reader to James's Drinkwater's and other accounts.
The Victory, strange to say, had but 1 man killed, and 8 wounded; the total loss in the English fleet being about 350 killed and wounded.
The fruits of the victory were the San Josef, Salvador del Mundo, 112, San Nicholas, 80, and San Isidro, 74; a result, that considering these prizes were wrested from 27 ships by 15, cannot but be considered as most glorious.
The enemy, next day, had it in their power to renew the action with 21 ships. Who can say what the result might have been, for some of our vessels were so disabled as to render it necessary to tow them; but though the Spaniards once made a feint, as if they would attack, they finally disappeared, allowing our fleet and prizes to arrive safely at Lagos Bay, in Portugal, where they anchored on the 16th.
On the 19th, they experienced a gale of wind that drove the Victory from her anchors, whereby she had a most narrow escape of being wrecked. On the 23rd they sailed, and arrived at Lisbon on the 28th, without accident or molestation.
The news of the battle of Cape St. Vincent, as it was called, was received in England with frantic joy; great rejoicings took place throughout the kingdom, the fleet received the thanks of both Houses of Parliament, Sir John Jervis was created Earl of St. Vincent, Admirals Thompson and Parker were made Baronets, and the gallant Commodore Nelson was invested with the honours of the Bath.
On the 28th March Sir John Jervis was reinforced by a squadron from England, when he shifted his flag on the 30th from the Victory to the HMS Ville de Paris, a new three decked ship.
The fleet sailed next day (the Victory being now a private ship) and proceeded off Cadiz, where Nelson had been cruising for some time watching the Spanish ships, who, ever since the 16th of February had lain in that port, hooted and jeered at by the populace, and their Admirals and Captains disgraced.
Jervis blockaded Cadiz during the summer, the Victory serving in sometimes the outer, sometimes the in-shore squadron, and sending her boats to take part in the night attacks, undertaken by Commodore Nelson, with the hopes of shaming the Spaniards to coming out. On one of these occasions, 5th July, some of her men were wounded. But the Dons were not to be lured out, and on the approach of winter. Earl St. Vincent withdrew his vessels to the Tagus, and amongst other ships sent the Victory home, with the prizes taken on February 14th. She arrived at Spithead on October 1st, and thence going to Chatham, paid off on November 26th, after another long and eventful commission of nearly five years duration.
Worn out, and unfit for further active service, the poor old Victory was here degraded to the office of prison hospital ship, which she filled for two years, when, unwilling that such a favourite and fast sailing ship should be lost to the country, the Admiralty directed her to be thoroughly repaired. This took a year, and in the spring of 1801 she came out of dock almost a new ship, but she was not ready for service in the Baltic campaign of that date, and had rest at Chatham for still two years.

Make some noise and some frozen processor pops
Subject: Cases and Cooling | July 19, 2006 - 01:13 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Give Guru of 3D a minute of you time and they will wow you. After maiming a Lian-Li case, they insert an Asetek Vapochill LS, and push an Athlon FX-57 to the limit.
"Processor cooling can be a hip thing to do. To go way beyond a normal overclock .. you need to cool
that CPU below zero degrees C and that's where the Asetek LS comes in. It's the most expensive and
noisiest cooling solution around. It's difficult to install as you'll need to mod your case, you'll
have to do crazy stuff with your CPU ... but the result really is simple, you can cool down the
processor with a -54 Degrees C cooling block on that AMD heatspreader and that my friends is such a
fun experience you won't believe it."

The Guild Leader Episode #5
What goes on a Guild Website?
One job of the guild leader and I can never stress this enough, your guild will need a website! This will let members see the guild rules and latest news. This is very important to make everything run smoother and it is a great way to interact with other members of the guild outside of the game.
A guild website will keep you organized and your member will be happy to see what is going on at any given time. This not only make things smoother but also makes for a happier guild environment when everyone know what's going on. Setting up a website is the responsibility of the guild leader, but please delegate when needed.
So let's get to it here's what I recommend on a guild website. Now these are bare minimums but these items should always have a home on your site.
Guild Name: Self-explanatory.
Guild Banner: (If you have a banner) I would place this right under you guild name or in place of your name. If there is an artist in your group that will make this much easier, if not spend five bucks on an artist on fiverr.com to make one for your guild.
Charter: Have a page dedicated to your charter, this is the most important document you have for you guild so make sure this is out there for everyone to see. You should leave room for amendments.
Roster: List out your roster from the guild leader to the bottom. Some like to break the list in two having a list for officers and a list of the rest of the member. It doesn't really matter either way.
Guild/Game News: Have a page dedicated to news and anything that might be interesting for members. (Changes to game, promotions, and guild events, guild leader notes and news)
Calendar of Events: upcoming events and if help is needed for any of them.
Forum: You should have a forum for discussing anything and everything related to games and the guild available to members and members alone.
Place for all guild voting: Voting for your members is important, to make sure the guild as a whole has a say on how business that needs to be taken care of.
Now as you website grows you will have a lot more items on it but this is just the recommended basics and this will get you going.
When it comes to websites a lot of people don't want to pay money for a website. I understand. I would recommend a guild pool for donations to pay for a site name and hosting.
If you don't want any out of pocket expense you could always try one of the free guild hosting places online. I recommended guild web host Guildportal.com They have more than enough features to get you up running fast and later on you can pay for a site name and go premium.
Here's the basic guild website that I set up for this article using Guildportal.com Check it out Here
Well that's about it for this week hope you enjoyed this week's installment of The Guild Leader, our next installment will cover how to recruit for your guild.
