Hell Girl/Jigoku Shoujo season 1
I'm sorry, I could only find page 3 of this thread on Google. But here it is:
As for episode 11, I thought that the episode was a bit boring. I didn't feel quite attached to the person this time because the episode wasn't about him at all. Because of that, I didn't really feel attached to the villain and could care less about his punishment. But, this was a plot-moving episode because more information was revealed to the detective.

Why such a low interest level?
I think this is an excellent series. Please excuse the cliche, but I think it's a real sleeper hit. Shinsen doesn't seem motivated to sub it even though it remains on their active projects list. Unfortunately, I don't know enough Japanese to watch the raws. If no one subs it, I'll have to hope it gets licensed.

I haven't been keeping up with the raws, but I kind of like those series that deal with karmic retribution, sort of like the better chapters in the Petshop of Horrors manga. Those similarities were what's kept me with Jigoku Shoujo, despite the ridiculousness of some of the premises and the flatness of most of the characters so far.

I've seen up to episode #5 subbed and I think this will become a sleeper hit too. I love its animation, and I can dig creepy stories like the ones shown in each episode. Whomever is fansubbing this needs to work a little faster. XD

Um, wow. If you can't even remember who's fansubbing the show, can you really ask them to go faster? Both you arguably don't have the right to... and, heh, you litterally can't since you don't know who they are. :P
I'm being a bit harsher than I usually am, but honestly... "whomever?"
I do appriciate you not being a whiney troll... and I don't in general have a problem with people asking for things to come out faster, or when something's coming out, unlike most other fansubbers I know...
But honestly, I wouldn't feel any urg to spend more time working on a project when someone called us "whomever."
....Unless we decided to name our group whomever. Maybe we should, it's a good name!
But honestly, please at least show a little bit of respect and thanks. Of course fansubbers don't work nearly as much as those actually creating the show, but they do spend their free time making it understandable to you.

Episode 12 was...really different. Very interesting. And it's the episode so far with the best music! The next episode seems to be about Ai's past maybe? Is episode 13 the last episode?
By the way, there's going to be a Karinui (ED theme) music video made and it will be released on January 25 on the Jigoku Shoujo Vol.1 DVD. It features live action footage with the VA in Ai's creepy room and also an Ai doll! It's weird though that the room isn't red.

Once it gets out of the repetitive episodic intro, this could be quite a neat series.
My question is this, though; so far every person who's been taken to Hell has deserved it, and Enma and her posse always taunt the person and ask "So, are you going to admit what you did?". Just about everyone has flat out denied it then moved on to "no I am clearly right and I don't regret it" once prodded/taunted further. What happens if a person admits their sins and asks for forgiveness, sincerily? Do they still get taken to Hell? Oh, and what if someone tries to invoke revenge on someone who doesn't deserve it? I know one of the episodes
Also the series does need balancing on the moral scale. Too much "yeah they totally deserved it".

One of the things that I'm curious about is what, exactly, is Enma doing with all of the souls of those who invoked her? It doesn't look like Enma ferries borderline cases who are close to repentance--- all of her passengers (from what I've seen, and I've only seen the subbed eps) are people who probably would have ended up in hell anyways, had they been allowed to complete their normal lifespan. The process is just sped up a bit. :o) But the part that doesn't sit right with me, and makes me curious, is what about those people whose desire for revenge was so great that they sacrifice their own souls in exchange for immediate justice? If I had a dog, I'm sure I'd love it, and I'm sure I'd be angry at a negligent vet--- but I don't think I'd condemn myself to an eternity of torment over it. :o)
So that's the thing that I'm watching the series to find out... these are people who are sacrificing their own souls' well-being in order to bring down their tormentors. What benefit is Enma getting out of filling hell with people who wouldn't normally have gone there?

She probably gets a nice year end bonus in filling her quota. If you don't understand what I said, get a sales job with quotas

This sweet face reminds me it's all worthwhile
Thanks for welcoming Poppy Montgomery!
Best known for starring as Samantha Spade on Without a Trace, she'll be back as Det. Carrie Wells on the second season of Unforgettable, returning to CBS this summer.
In addition to her acting work, Montgomery is also producing a show, Sworn to Silence, for Lifetime.
Montgomery is mom to son Jackson Phillip Deveraux, 5, and is expecting her second child this spring.
She can be found on Twitter @PoppyMontgomery.
In her latest blog, the actress offers a funny take on why pregnancy has become "an endless list of 'can'ts' and 'don'ts.'"
I was watching a movie the other night set in the '60s. There was a woman sitting at the bar. She was heavily pregnant, smoking a cigarette and enjoying a martini. She looked … well, glamorous and relaxed.
I am sitting here heavily pregnant … and that's where the similarity to the woman in the bar ends. I don't look glamorous at all. I am not smoking a cigarette and certainly not enjoying any martinis lately … quite the contrary. This is 2013, not 1960 and even though my mother did it — and her mother before her — in today's world I am forbidden to partake of or indulge in just about everything I find enjoyable.
From sushi to soft cheese and deli meat to caffeine … forget the martini!
Why has pregnancy become such an endless list of "cant's" and "don'ts" subject to private and public scrutiny for nine (actually 10, but who's counting?!) months, in the belief that anything less than total abstinence of all vices is negligent and irresponsible?
"Life is tough enough without having someone kick you from the inside." – Rita Rudner
To add insult to injury, I cry. A lot. Ridiculously and easily.
Last weekend, Jackson and I were driving home and I saw a dead deer in the road. I started bawling. Embarrassing, uncontrollable sobs choking me as I clung to the steering wheel. Tears welling up and rolling down my cheeks so fast I could hardly see. Jackson was staring at me, mystified and speechless.
Despite his concern and my ridiculously glistening and wracked appearance, all I could think of was that poor, innocent deer lying dead on the side of the road and its baby waiting in the trees for Mummy to come back. I was beside myself.
As we got closer, I realized the (dead) deer that I had worked myself into such frenzy over was nothing but a pile of leaves blown up against a rock. With a flip of a coin, everything was fine again. A smile playing lightly on my lips I broke into a hummy little rendition of "You Are My Sunshine." Jackson joined in and we drove home as if nothing had happened.
Hormones? Temporary insanity? Self-flagellation? No raw fish? You tell me!
"Of course I can do this. I'm pregnant, not brain-damaged. My condition doesn't change my personality." – Christina Feehan, Ruthless Game
Am I so large that I need a razor on a stick to shave my legs? Good lord, no (or not yet)! The very thought makes cry. Everything makes me cry.
The other day I started crying on the phone with the bakery shop assistant because the cupcakes I had ordered (the ones I pretend I bake for Jackson's school) were not going to arrive on the day they were supposed to — and I had paid extra for fast delivery!
I sobbed on the phone to this poor young man about my bad back, my cankles and how all I wanted was some sushi, a nice soft cheese and a bowl of sugary Froot Loops (but with almond milk because I have developed a pregnancy allergy to dairy).
I told him that I thought my teeth were going to fall out from lack of calcium and I wailed about my lack of sleep and bizarre dreams.
I ranted about my new obsession with the scent of eucalyptus oil and the desire to pour hot sauce over everything I eat (I hate hot sauce!) and how the smell of cooked meat makes me gag.
When I asked him if he was married and had children and he said no, I cried even harder. When he asked me if I needed him to call an ambulance, I shouted at him and told him I wasn't ill — I was simply pregnant!
The kind, sweet bakery shop assistant listened, bless him, to all of it. The rambling outpourings of a hysterical, hormonal, semi-deranged, pregnant psychopath. Finally, I blew my nose loudly, popped a candy into my mouth and thanked him for his time. I promptly hung up and sent him flowers.
A touch over the top? Probably. However, the cupcakes did arrive later that afternoon just in time for Jackson's bake sale. And, like turning a page, everything was back to normal. I resumed humming "You Are My Sunshine" and reflected on how lucky it was that Jackson was at school and not around to witness the clear evidence of his mother's absurd and irrational mental state.
Jackson keeping me motivated!
"Complete abstinence is easier than perfect moderation." – Saint Augustine
Why is everything I crave on the "no" list?
My cravings are as follows:
– Sushi
– Stinky Brie cheese
– Margaritas (with extra salt)
– Tuna
– Shellfish
– Caffeine
– Anything sugary, fatty, processed … If I could deep-fry Twinkies for breakfast, I would … but alas, Hostess went out of business (and yes, I cried over that too!).
On the "no" list? …
Early in my pregnancy, after weeks of abstaining from most of the foods I crave, I was miserable and losing my mind.
I had just been to Paris for the very first time on a work trip, and as I walked through Saint-Germain, everywhere I turned was a street café displaying heaping piles of oysters and shellfish on ice. Don't even get me started on the gorgeous cheese plates, endless champagne, foie gras and steak tartare that I reluctantly declined, all in the name of pregnancy.
When I arrived back in the U.S. at a full three months pregnant, craving dreams plagued me — little pieces of sushi talked to me in my sleep. Oysters lined up and did the samba. But it was the dancing, mariachi-singing margarita calling my name that pushed me over the edge and sent me flying to the phone early one morning to call my mother (crying of course)!
My mother had many philosophies as we were growing up. Moderation in all things, for one, including moderation itself. She explained to me on the phone (as I ranted about talking sushi and dancing cocktails) that while moderation eliminates extremes, it can also become recursive, and that we should moderate how we moderate and not become too worried about moderating everything.
After this incredibly confusing advice, she concluded with: Listen to your body, follow your instincts, happiness is healthiness and always maintain your dignity.
With my mother's words ringing in my ears I decided to turn my frown upside down and relaxed a little.
I am fully committed to doing things "right" — I exercise with as much dignity as my newly-acquired shape will allow, I chew through countless plates of raw vegetables and trail mix, I don't stay out late and I have, of course, given up my beloved margaritas (no matter how often they sing to me).
I do yoga and attempt stress control — BUT (still listening to my body) I rise each morning from my cramped sleeping position and off-balance hormones, and even though it's on the "no" list, I allow myself a coffee. A GOOD coffee. Imported from France.
I allow myself the occasional Big Mac with super-size fries (heavenly!) because it makes me HAPPY. And there is an important piece of pregnancy that sometimes gets lost in all the stress of "cant's" and "don'ts": Be happy, and allow ourselves enjoyment during this miraculous time.
Stress and anxiety have created many more health problems than a stinky, runny cheese and a good cup of coffee.
In conclusion, I lift a tiny glass of chilled rosé to all mothers and mothers-to-be out there! To fat, to water-balloon feet, to having to pee every five seconds, to the heartburn, the charley horses and the restless legs, to bizarrely vivid dreams and of course, to those tiny heels that jab under the diaphragm.
May Eileithyia, goddess of childbirth and labor pains, be always on our side!
— Poppy Montgomery

Central Retinal Vein Occlusion
Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion
Hemicentral Retinal Vein Occlusion
Ischemic Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion
Neovascular Glaucoma
Case 1: Central Retinal Vein Occlusion
A 58-year-old man sought medical attention because of the recent sudden onset of blurred vision in his left eye. His vision had not improved over several days. The patient had hypertension and had recently sustained a myocardial infarction. He was taking metoprolol, 25 mg/d, and aspirin, 81 mg/d.
His best-corrected visual acuity was 20/30 in the right eye and 20/80 in the left eye. No afferent pupillary defect was noted. Biomicroscopy revealed early nuclear sclerotic cataracts.
Results of the funduscopic examination of the right eye were unremarkable. The fundus of the left eye showed dot, blot, and flame-shaped hemorrhages throughout, including the macula. The macular reflex was blunted, and the macula appeared edematous. The retinal veins were engorged and tortuous. No evidence of ischemia (cotton-wool spots) was seen. Because the central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) had occurred recently, the optic nerve head also appeared edematous. The patient's blood pressure was normal. Bilateral carotid artery bruits were audible with auscultation. The patient was referred to his internist for further workup.
CRVO is caused by localized thrombosis at the level of the lamina cribrosa of the optic nerve. Intra-retinal hemorrhages are visible throughout the fundus grounds in patients with CRVO. Cotton-wool spots and an afferent pupillary defect are signs of ischemia. Poor initial visual acuity also correlates with the degree of ischemia. If ischemia is present initially or occurs over time, neovascularization of the retina and iris (rubeosis) may develop. This can lead to neovascular glaucoma, severe eye pain, and further loss of vision.
The management of CRVO includes strict control of arterial blood pressure, hypercholesterolemia, and cardiovascular risk factors. Patients need to be monitored monthly by an ophthalmologist for the possible development of neovascularization.

World AIDS Day Makes Me Sad
November 21, 2011
For our World AIDS Day 2011 section, we wanted to capture the diversity of the AIDS community. So, we reached out to people across the world -- regular contributors and those who have never written for us before -- and asked them to guest blog. These columns are written by people who are living with HIV, have been affected by HIV, or work in the field.
World AIDS Day makes me sad. For me it is a day of mourning and grief. Even though I will stand up in front of yet another group of students and talk about how this is a preventable disease, I have no delusions after 22 years that my one talk will make much of a difference in their behavior. I might plant some seeds. I might be part of a cumulative message that eventually helps some of the people make better choices. But regardless, I will continue to speak about the need to advocate for better safe sex methods and accessible information for all types of groups around the world. I will write, paint and perform in hopes of finding alternative ways to reach the hearts and minds of the human race when it comes to AIDS education.
The theme of this World AIDS Day is Getting to Zero. It is an ironic theme for me because I have found myself on a tropical island in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, co-directing a nonprofit art alliance that brings alternative art to the community -- think 1960s Greenwich Village. It is amazing. The alliance is called sevenminusseven (Find out what we are up to on Facebook). People always ask about the name. I say it means nothing. Our last show was called "Less Than Zero."
But in reality, zero means a lot to me. It would be remarkable to have no more cases of AIDS. Zero is such a perfect concept; and maybe there will be a groundbreaking discovery that can eradicate the virus forever. To think people worldwide will start changing personal habits around sex and drugs is a nice thought; but in my experience, it's not realistic.
This is my 22nd World AIDS Day, and the changes from the first till now are stunning. Many of us, especially in the United States, have the possibility of living out our natural lives. I have more hope of having zero deaths due to treatment than zero infections due to prevention. That in itself would be miraculous. I think of all the people I loved who did not make it to 1996 with the advent of combination therapies that saved so many. I think about those who died from the side effects, old age or a plethora of other fatal diseases. I think about what their lives would look like if they'd survived.
Last year I made a DVD based on my book, A Positive Life: Portraits of Women Living With HIV. About a third of the women involved in the original book have died. I contacted the women who survived, and it was poignant to see what a person can do with an extra 17 years. With the exception of one person, no one gave up -- and even that one person recently came around and got clean and sober. The rest of the women had children, went to college; one became a lawyer, another ran a marathon, two started nonprofit organizations, some became advocates and some became grandmothers. All these precious women survived to take a place in society and make changes, small and big, but mostly to be there. Keep that place of loved filled. So their friends, sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters can pick up the phone or stop by, feel the warmth of their hugs, get some advice or share a meal.
In everything I have been through -- which includes homelessness, addiction and prostitution, as well as success as a writer, performer, painter and international speaker -- none of it compares to the ability to spend a day or a few hours with someone I love, to laugh and sometimes cry, share or to even complain about the bullshit of life. It is when that place is suddenly empty that you appreciate these simple moments.
A friend of mine died of a heart attack this past summer. I still reach for the phone or start an email. The emptiness of his vacated life is acute. Some nights I am filled with such need to talk, but I talk to the sky and the sea. I let the tears fall and I am grateful for everyone still here. His death was another reminder to be present. If I am mad, I am sure to tell the person so we can resolve it. If they do something sweet to make me happy, I make sure I let them know. I try my best to be a part of my friends' lives and be a presence in the community.
This journey is brief. For me it will never again be about my successes or failure; it will be about the day, and whether I smiled, stayed open, was of service and found something to be grateful for.
I feel blessed to have made it this far. I am truly in the bonus rounds of life. I hope we make it to zero and one day the terror of AIDS becomes a distant memory.
I often post this poem on World AIDS Day. I think of it as a declaration of living.
Death Is for the Dead
The world looks
I see angels flying

CARSON, Calif. -- LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena and midfielder Mike Magee spoke with journalists from around the country this afternoon for a teleconference in lead up to Saturday's MLS Cup against the Houston Dynamo at The Home Depot Center.
Below are a series of select quotes from Arena. The complete audio can be found here
(On Robbie Keane & Landon Donovan's partnership…)
ARENA: "I think they are two good players who know how to react off one another. They are technically similar and they both understand each other well. Regardless of where we play Landon, he connects with Robbie. If he is in the midfield it's still the same kind of relationship. It comes down to two soccer players who understand each other."
(On Robbie Keane after the Euros 2012…)
ARENA: "There is a noticeable change in that he has obviously scored a lot of goals since his return. I think we see this all the time with players that are involved with national teams. When there are significant competitions their focus is sometimes on those championships with the national team. Maybe they hold back a little bit so they don't pick up an injury. I think when Robbie came back in late June he was 100% committed to the Galaxy. He's played as well as any player in the League since late June."
(On what he did to turn things around this season…)
ARENA: "Just like with any team there are things inside the team that you have to correct. Whether its chemistry, players understanding their roles, a coach doing a better job with leadership and trying to really get at some of the issues. Things like that we keep inside our team. But they are issues that are inside every team. All teams go through good stretches and bad stretches. Our bad stretch lasted a little longer than we would have liked but in 2011 we had similar types of issues. You just have to get together as a team and sort through those issues and help steer everyone in the right direction. That's essentially what we did in general terms."
(On if it was a steeper challenge considering the expectations…)
ARENA: "If you're in coaching long enough or if you've been playing long enough, you understand that these issues are all part of the process. One isn't any easier than the other. That's why our profession is so unique and challenging. People from the outside don't understand it. It's equally challenging every year whether you're having an outstanding season or a poor season. Coaching at these levels is simply challenging. It's an everyday process and you can't step away from it and you have to stay focused at all times. So I can't say that this year has been more difficult than some others but it's certainly been challenging."
(On the turning point in the Galaxy season…)
ARENA: "It was right along that period of time where we had that game against Salt Lake, beat Vancouver at home and then lost to San Jose on the road but I thought we played well, I was okay with that. Right before the game in Philadelphia we were at the midway point. We set our goals and we knew what we had to do in the next 17 games and that was get 30 points. We ended up getting 34 but we went out and lost against Philadelphia. Maybe on a day when we were a little bit sharper we win by 3 or 4 goals to be honest. Then we went on a good run beating Chicago on the road, Portland on the road and then pulled out a draw against Vancouver in the last minute. Right around the Salt Lake game was when it started."
(On Houston's changes since last year…)
ARENA: "They are more dangerous. Brad [Davis] is an outstanding passer who has great service on set pieces. In [Boniek] Garcia, you have a player that's different. He's creative and dynamic with the ball at his feet. He's a threat to both score goals and set up goals. Those are two very good attacking players to add to group who scores goals on set pieces, who has a goal scorer in [Will] Bruin. They are two midfield players who are among the best in the League. When you have that, their team is going to be considerably better."
(On the play of Houston goalkeeper Tally Hall…)
ARENA: "Tally has been outstanding. I think he's turned into a really good goalkeeper. He has a lot more experience after playing consistently over the past couple of years."
(On how the Galaxy compare to the D.C. United team he coached…)
ARENA: "It was a different era so I don't think you can make comparisons. My D.C. United team had some outstanding stars and some players that contributed and supported them. Then we had a nucleus of players who blended in well with our star power. I guess you could say we have that here at the Galaxy. Guys understand their roles and understand how to play with Robbie, Landon and David which in the end up being a team. That's what this is about, developing good teams. So in that way those similarities are certainly there. I would also say this. Our League is not going to have dynasties. The make-up of the league and how we do our business doesn't permit that. There are going to be teams that are good for a couple of years and then they fall out of it for a while and they come back again. That's just the reality of Major League Soccer. I don't think you're going to see the LA Galaxy be a team for the next ten years that will be competing year-in and year-out for the championship. It's just not possible in our single entity."
(On the play of midfielder Christian Wilhelmsson…)
ARENA: "I think he gives us some width in our attack. He's a player who is comfortable playing out wide and he's good on both sides of the ball. He's an experience player and he's technically sound. He's a player that when we add him to the equation he makes us more dangerous as an attacking unit."
(On Houston's left back Corey Ashe…)
ARENA: "Over the last two or three years he's gotten a lot more consistent. He's physically strong and is quick to deal with any issues in his space. He's also good going forward. He's developed into one of the best left backs in Major League Soccer."

The passenger in the van, a 24-year-old man from Atherton, suffered a neck injury which is thankfully not thought to be serious. The driver of the HGV, a 34-year-old man from Barking, was uninjured.
Lane three of the motorway was kept open to ease congestion, however lanes one and two were closed until around midday while specialist accident investigators attended the scene.
We are now appealing for information about the incident and would like to speak to anybody who saw what happened or who might have dashcam footage.
Sergeant Claire Pearson, of the Roads Policing Unit, said: The driver of the van has suffered a serious leg injury and first and foremost we wish him the very best with his recovery.
We are now trying to piece together exactly what occurred and would like to hear from anybody who saw the collision or saw either of the vehicles in the moments beforehand. If you have any information that could help with our investigation, we ask that you get in touch as soon as possible.
Anybody with information is asked to contact us by emailing email@example.com or calling 101, quoting log number 239 of September 14th.

Audio: Tom OBrien thinks highly of VT
NC State football coach Tom O'Brien is not fooled by Virginia Tech's 2-2 overall record. He noted during his weekly press conference Monday that Virginia Tech is in his estimate about five plays away from being undefeated and ranked in the top five.
He added that the Hokies are "by far the best team we've played all year, not even close." O'Brien noted that the short turnaround from the Boise State loss probably played a role in the Hokies being stunned by James Madison five days later.
O'Brien is also high on Virginia Tech senior quarterback Tyrod Taylor, whom he said fits the mold of recent quarterbacks NC State has faced including Central Florida's Jeffrey Godfrey, Cincinnati's Zach Collaros and Georgia Tech's Joshua Nesbitt, but O'Brien quickly added those quarterbacks are not as good as Taylor.
Other topics covered by O'Brien Monday include:
- The team did not get to practice Sunday because of a thunderstorm in the area.
- He complimented new linebackers coach Jon Tenuta, but also added Tenuta walked into a good situation with the return of fifth-year senior linebacker Nate Irving and maturation of redshirt junior Audie Cole and redshirt sophomore Terrell Manning.
- O'Brien added that he believes redshirt junior quarterback Russell Wilson should be considered for the Heisman Trophy, but he still has to prove it every week.
- He praised the ability of NC State not to panic after Georgia Tech scored two touchdowns a minute apart in the fourth quarter to cut State's lead to 31-28, adding that "what's good about them right now."
- New punter Andy Leffler was identified by special teams coordinator Jerry Petercuskie as a target over the summer to be the backup punter after Chris Ward was dismissed from the team. O'Brien praised Leffler's ability to get the punt away quickly, something that should help Saturday against the Hokies' always potent punt block units. O'Brien though does not want to put too much on Leffler, noting that coaches can over-coach at times and go overboard.
- O'Brien praised redshirt freshman offensive guard Duran Christophe and noted he has a "big, powerful body." Christophe played 63 snaps at Georgia Tech, more than doubling his total from the first three games.
- O'Brien is hoping that the 4-0 start will serve as validation to the players and coaches about the direction and workings of the program. He also thinks being ranked No. 23 in the Associated Press "is a good thing." He quickly added though the ranking does not mean anything on Saturday.
- He said that freshman Mustafa Greene impressed those around him over the summer with his maturity, and they quickly gained confidence in his ability to handle playing football and managing his school work at the same time.
- Sophomore cornerback Jarvis Byrd has not been cleared for practice yet. He tore his ACL in the season finale against North Carolina last season, but he has not been ruled out for this year yet. O'Brien said there will be a time where Byrd reaches a point of no return and will redshirt, but he does not know when that will be. Until then, if Byrd can add something to the team and there is a need for him, Byrd may play. Byrd is currently running with the strength and conditioning staff trying to get back on the field.

Top 10 Classroom Projectors
Results based on statistics from last 300,000 visitors.
Last Updated: Sep 16, 2018.
The two hottest resolutions for classroom projectors are XGA (1024x768) and WXGA (1280x800). The big difference between these is that XGA is a 4:3 aspect ratio, and WXGA is 16:10, or widescreen. These two resolutions are popular for classrooms because they are very low in price but they put up very large, bright pictures.
For schools on extremely low budgets, the older SVGA (800x600) resolution is still available as well. Like XGA, it is a 4:3 aspect ratio, but it is lower in price than XGA.
Since XGA, WXGA, and SVGA projectors are very different in cost, resolution and aspect ratio, we have three separate Top 10 lists:

1. Re: How doesBela Ban Apr 21, 2005 3:41 AM (in response to renata roginsky)
I suggest you
(a) look at the FileCacheLoaderTest for examples and
(b) update to 1.2.2
2. Re: How doesrenata roginsky Apr 21, 2005 11:44 AM (in response to renata roginsky)
Thank you Bela!
I tried running the testEvictionWithCacheLoader2 from the CacheLoaderTestBase class, and it indeed works. Then I modified it like this (because this is the functionality I'm looking for):
cache.putObject("/first/second/third", "val1"); // stored in cache loader
cache.evict(Fqn.fromString("/first/second/third")); // removes node, because there are no children
String val=(String)cache.getObject("/first/second/third"); // should be loaded from cache loader
assertEquals("val1", val);
getObject returns null, so bolded assertEquals fails. Am I not understanding how the Aop tree works with objects? I tried adding cache.load("/first/second/third") just before cache.getObject(), and it didn't help.
Also, when I downloaded 1.2.2 zip file, the jboss-jmx.jar wass missing org.jboss.mx.util.JBossNotificationBroadcasterSupport class, so I had to get this jar from CVS.
3. Re: How doesrenata roginsky Apr 21, 2005 7:56 PM (in response to renata roginsky)
P.S. It appears that for the TreeCacheAop evict() causes complete removal of the node from the backstore. The regular TreeCache doesn't do it. Is this the expected behavior? I though eviction only affects the memory cache, but not the backstore. Is there any configuration that would prevent it from happening?
P.P.S. If I use exactly the same Aop cache and configuration, but instead of using putObject(fqn, pojp) API, use put(fqn, key, pojo), the backstore node doesn't get removed during "evict()" call.
Thank you for your help and for getting back to me so quickly after my first post.
4. Re: How does eviction work for Aop treerenata roginsky Apr 22, 2005 11:14 AM (in response to renata roginsky)
I hope someone is reading it... or am I writing to myself?
Anyway, I think this is the problem code (from TreeCacheAop.java):
public void evict(Fqn fqn) throws CacheException {
// We will remove all children nodes as well since we assume all children nodes are part
// of this "object" node.
if(isAopNode(fqn)) {
if(log.isDebugEnabled()) {
log.debug("evict(): evicting whole aop node " +fqn);
// _remove(null, fqn, create_undo_ops, false);
// TODO Why do we not want to remove the interceptor??? I think we should.
// Because if we remove it, the caller has no idea that it has been taken off.
// She will still think that caching is in effect. But this returns null value from cache.
// What's is a good policy?
boolean removeCacheInterceptor = false;
_removeObject(fqn, removeCacheInterceptor); } else {
Is it possible to remove the interceptor only for this one call (_removeObject) and then put it back? Seems like that would be the right thing to do.
5. Re: How doesBen Wang Apr 22, 2005 11:39 AM (in response to renata roginsky)
Yes, we are reading. :-)
This looks like a bug. Can you open up a Jira issue under JBossCache and please assign it to me.
6. Re: How doesrenata roginsky Apr 22, 2005 12:12 PM (in response to renata roginsky)
Oh, thank you, thank you,thank you!
You guys are awesome, responding so quickly to so many people (not to mention your great products and impressive documentation)! I only wondered whether anyone was reading because I had no idea how you managed it.
I opened an issue, but I don't have the authority to assign it.
Thanks again!
7. Re: How doesMohamed Jamal Jun 30, 2005 11:40 AM (in response to renata roginsky)
Is there any idea when this will be fixed?
8. Re: How doesBen Wang Jun 30, 2005 6:55 PM (in response to renata roginsky)
Probably within next two weeks.
9. Re: How doesMohamed Jamal Jul 5, 2005 12:13 PM (in response to renata roginsky)
Great news! Is there a scheduled build release coming soon after?
10. Re: How doesBen Wang Jul 5, 2005 12:42 PM (in response to renata roginsky)
Release 1.2.4 is scheduled at the end of August for now. But you are welcome to try out the development version once I get it fixed.
Stay tune,
11. Re: How doesBen Wang Jul 5, 2005 9:01 PM (in response to renata roginsky)
OK, I have checked in the code. You can grab the cvs and build for yourself if you want. I have added a new test case FileCacheLoaderAopTest to test it out.
Release 1.2.4 is scheduled for end of August now.

Many readers consider Whistleblower to be simply the world's best newsmagazine.

Recent issues include "SHADOW GOVERNMENT: Inside the mad, mad, mad, mad world of Obama's czars," "MEDICAL MURDER: Why Obamacare could result in the early deaths of millions of baby boomers," "THE GREAT AWAKENING: How tea partiers are setting a new course for America," "NARCISSIST IN CHIEF: Experts explain what makes Barack Obama tick" and BLACK HOLE: The shocking truth about the U.S. economy – and what you can and must do."
So, for $4.95 you get a copy of "Shooting Back," plus you get three sample issues of Whistleblower – in hopes, of course, that you will do what most people do, which is to become a long-term Whistleblower subscriber.
(This offer does not apply to current Whistleblower subscribers or those living outside the U.S. However, if you are already a Whistleblower subscriber, or if you want to subscribe now, we have a fantastic offer for you to check out!)
Important: For this very special $4.95 offer, you will receive "Shooting Back" as well as three free issues of Whistleblower magazine. Also included with your free issues will be a renewal notice for a one-year Whistleblower subscription. If you wish to renew, do nothing, and your credit or debit card will be charged the discounted annual renewal rate of only $39.95. (There's no risk, because at any time you can cancel your subscription for a full refund on the unused portion.) If you don't want to renew, simply cancel by calling 1-800-4WNDCOM (800-496-3266) or by emailing email@example.com before the charge date printed on the renewal card you'll receive. Either way, the book and the 3 free issues are yours to keep. (Only one copy of "Shooting Back" at this price per household. Offer good with credit card purchase only, and only in the U.S.)
Please note: If you like your three free Whistleblower issues and renew, when your Whistleblower subscription eventually expires, you'll receive another renewal notice from us. To keep Whistleblower coming, do nothing and we'll renew your subscription automatically at the low prevailing rate by charging your credit or debit card. As always, there's never any risk, as you may cancel at any time for a full refund of the unused portion of your subscription.
This offer expires tonight at 10 p.m. Pacific, so order now.
If you don't want to take advantage of this offer, but still want a copy of "Shooting Back," you can order it here.

With the editor's husband on board, there was no leaving till I got him a fish
It was pitch dark when the last fish finally hit. Bill said, "Got him." Then, even from my station in the stern, I could hear his drag sounding like a large, angry bumblebee. Line poured out of his reel as the rockfish swam hot and straight for the middle of the Bay.
We had been fishing for about three hours, night had just fallen and things had been dicey the whole time. Bill Lambrecht, founding partner and editorial advisor of Bay Weekly, as well as the Washington Bureau Chief of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and a veteran big-boat angler, had joined me for an evening small-boat, skinny-water sortie.
I'd had several great outings fishing top-water plugs along the Bay's shallow, rocky shoreline for striped bass in my light, 17-foot skiff and expected this late afternoon expedition to be equally good. As anyone who fishes the Bay can tell you, as soon as you think you have things figured out, they will change.
Fishing for rock remains good throughout the Bay. Trollers are finding nice fish regularly, dragging smaller bucktails, spoons and — when the blues are absent — soft baits such as Tsunami and Storm shads. Light-tackle jigging is also coming into its own as saltwater Bass Assassins and BKDs are connecting with good-sized fish deep around structure or over feeding schools. Breaking fish are still concentrated on the Eastern side. From Chesapeake Beach to Solomons Island, superior rockfish are being taken. The shallow-water/topwater striper action is still coming on. This week's tides are off, but the next should lure the better stripers back in again.
Bill had picked up the first keeper rock on his top-water plug about an hour into our trip and a half-hour before sunset. But then a bunch of small, snapper blues moved into the area. The insanely aggressive fish pounced on our lures, getting soundly hooked and keeping us busy trying to unbutton and release them.
It also appeared that their presence had shied off the nicer-sized rockfish that had been showing up along this stretch of rocks the last few days. During the next hour, we did land a couple of schoolie stripers along with the little bluefish. But no sizeable rockfish showed after Bill's first keeper.
Just before daylight failed, I hooked what felt like a really good striper only to feel it pull free after I foolishly tried to muscle it to the boat. After that, as darkness descended, nothing happened for either of us.
With only one fish in the box, we switched to subsurface rattling lures, using black-over-gold Red Eye Shads, my favorite nighttime plug.
Almost immediately I hooked up with another good striper that showed some real power and refused for the longest time to close with me. Finally, as it surfaced near the boat barely within reach, I did the unthinkable and tried to scoop it anyway.
Succeeding only in fouling the plug in its mouth on the edge of the net, I watched helplessly as the big fish did a headshake, freed itself from the lure's hooks, then slid off the net rim into the blackness of the night water.
In the end it was up to Bill to save our trip, and he did. Relentlessly working the water with his rattling shad, he plied not only the near shoreline, where we expected to find fish, but also the deeper, backside of our setup. That's where, as time was running out, he hit pay dirt.
Playing the fish gently right from the start, he let it have its head while I anguished nearby, holding the net. I began to offer advice on technique. Then, recalling my two failures that evening, I shut up.
Bill didn't need any advice. After an extended tussle, he gently slid the fish toward me just under the water's surface and close alongside. At last working the net properly, I lifted the thrashing, striped devil into the boat. It was the nicest rockfish of the evening.
As we headed for the lights of the Bay Bridge and home, both of us well late to dinner, we had a good laugh about our experience. Bill had got his limit, a first-hand look at shallow water fishing and proof positive that the stories I write for Bay Weekly about losing good fish are true.

AMD/ATI gave a direct hit to rival Nvidia with the release of the first 40nm GPU that powers the new HD 4770 graphics card. The new desktop graphics solution is the first ever available to take advantage of an energy-efficient 40nm GPU and most importantly, it aims at a very price-conscious part of the market, retailing for around $100.
Today we have in our hands the HD 4770 solution by Nvidia's partner XFX. The XFX ATI Radeon HD 4770 graphics represent an industry milestone in the advancement in gaming performance, being capable of widespread destruction with faster frame rates, higher resolutions and unparalleled speed.
The new card features third-generation hardware support for the latest DirectX 10.1 games. It is based on RV740 GPU and compared to the company's Radeon HD 4850 solution; it has 20% less stream processors (640) and 32 texture units (40 for the HD 4850). On the other hand, the new HD 4770 is equipped with GDDR5 memory clocked at 800 MHz, compared to the 1000MHz GDDR3 that we have seen with the HD 4850 model. The new GDDR5 memory offers an increased data rate of 3.2Gbps.
The HD 4770 is also faster in terms of engine clock (GPU), which is now 750 MHz.
In addition, the new 40nm GPU is more energy efficient compared to the 55nm chip of the HD 4850, resulting to a maximum board power of 80W (110 W for the HD 4850).
Besides these changes, the HD 4770 shares the same characteristics with the HD 4850, offering an overall compute power of 960 GFLOPs.
GDDR5 memory arms users with twice the data per pin at 750MHz than equally equipped GDDR3 cards. The processing power delivered by the XFX ATI Radeon HD 4770 promises to offer exceptional performance for physics, artificial intelligence, dual-stream picture-in-picture computing and ray tracing calculations.
24x custom filter anti-aliasing (CFAA) and high performance anisotropic filtering contribute to higher realism, smoothing jagged edges and realistic graphics. And ATI CrossFireX technology seamlessly scales rigs to quad mode.
In addition, the ATI Stream Technology enables the XFX ATI Radeon HD 4770 to tackle the most GPU-punishing tasks like video transcoding even faster.
Below are several information about the HD4770 series directly from ATI. It's $100 retail price makes it directly comparable with the Nvidia 9800GT series.

I was happy with these bulbs. They are very well made, and of good quality. However, they weren't quite as bright as I expected. They do make a little bit of a difference, but are not as bright as xenon or HID headlights. However, for regular halogen bulbs, these are probably the best you can get without having to convert your headlights to HIDs.

How To Effectively Sneeze Without Killing Everyone
Contagion, Steven Soderbergh's disaster movie about a pandemic gone horribly wrong, will make you itchy. If you're hypocondriac, you should probably avoid Contagion all costs. The movie begins with Gwyneth Paltrow on a business trip in Hong Kong and she goes to a casino with some co-workers. Then she gets a virus and brings it back to America. Chaos ensues. Spoiler: Gwyneth ruins everything.
But maybe this could have been avoided. These are the most effective ways that Gwyneth Paltrow could have not infected everyone in the world with her killer strain of bird flu.

Height-adjustable up to 5 cm at 3 levels even with a fully loaded top basket
Thanks to the triple Rackmatic system, the height of the top basket can easily be adjusted by up to 5 cm. And you can do this when it's fully loaded. That means even more adjustment options and thus maximum flexibility.
InfoLight - one red spot providing information.
A red LED spot on the floor updates on whether your fully-integrated dishwasher is still operating or finished already.
Automatic programmes
Ensure the optimum cleaning performance automatically. Water usage, the water temperature and the rinsing time are adjusted exactly to how dirty the load is, providing the best results while saving water and energy.
Rinses three times faster with optimum cleaning and drying results with VarioSpeed Plus.
Use the VarioSpeed Plus option to wash and dry a full load of dishes perfectly clean in the shortest of time. Rinse time is reduced at the push of a button by up to 66% with the usual high cleaning efficiency. Simply activate the VarioSpeed Plus option when you need dishes fast, e.g. at family celebrations or birthday parties.
Heat Exchanger: always the right temperature for optimal dish care.
Dishwashers with heat exchangers treat precious glasses and porcelain with particular care and no risks. Water is pre-heated in the rinsing tank to avoid any temperature shocks.
Perfect cleaning results without wasting a drop of water.
AquaSensor: Stain detection for brilliantly clean dishes.
The AquaSensor regulates the water usage depending on the type and degree of soiling, using light beams to manage the rinse. Depending on remaining food particles, grease or detergent residues in the rinse, the rinsing process is assessed to determine whether it needs to be continued.
HygienePlus option: Rinsing with higher temperatures for highest hygienic performance.
HygienePlus is a new option that can be activated in many programmes, and guarantees maximum hygiene thanks to antibacterial cleaning. This effect is achieved by a higher temperature level of up to 70°C during rinsing, sustained for approximately 10 minutes. HygienePlus is therefore ideal for people with high hygiene standards, for instance in households with small children or allergy sufferers.
Child lock on door prevents unintended door opening during rinsing.
A child-proof door lock prevents the door from being opened and the programme being altered during the cycle. This prevents injuries caused by hot steam and accidental adjustments to the programme settings.
Glass protection
Glass protection for gentle care of your glasses and delicate crockery. Because soft water causes glass corrosion, Bosch dishwashers with glass protection regulate the water hardness. This is how we optimise the protection of valuable glasses and delicate china with special care requirements.
Easy pre-select programme start for the desired start time.
With the time delay function you can pre-select the programme for the desired start time. This allows you to handle your appliance conveniently, at any time during the day, during work hours or at night. After the start of the programme a display indicates the precise remaining time.
The LoadSensor function helps you save water and energy when washing fewer dishes. This function weighs the load in the dishwasher and releases the right amount of water, based on the weight. Ensuring a perfect clean.
EcoSilence DriveTM: powerful, durable, quiet and efficient.
To increase our cleaning efficiency we have developed the economical EcoSilence DriveTM. It is exceptionally quiet, efficient and guarantees low electricity consumption. The EcoSilence DriveTM works without brushes, is ultra silent and top results are automatically guaranteed.
ActiveWater technology: less water, less energy, more performance.
This innovative rinsing technology maximises efficiency and ensures environmentally friendly rinsing for excellent cleaning results. The water and energy is saved through targeted water distribution, optimised filter technology, faster heating and higher pump performance for increased water circulation.
Glass 40°C programme
The Glass 40°C programme gently cleans glasses while providing optimal drying and achieving a brilliant shine. This is made possible by lowering the temperature, adjusting the rinse agent's temperature and extending the drying time. Shiny glasses and residue-free drying are clear proof of a brilliant and gentle cleaning result.

Being a school bus driver/monitor is not a glamorous line of work, but it fills an economic gap for those of us who choose to do so. We are provided with a series of instructions on how to manage and behave with children of most walks of life.
Being a school bus driver/monitor is not a glamorous line of work, but it fills an economic gap for those of us who choose to do so. We are provided with a series of instructions on how to manage and behave with children of most walks of life.
In those instructions, it is very much emphasized that we should treat children with respect and dignity and to never touch them in any way, shape or form. It becomes extremely difficult to comply with these demands because when you try to control a large group of children from different backgrounds and with different moral standards, their behavior is not always the best. I have seen monitors being spit, bit, and an extreme case of being urinated on.
The threat of violence is a constant thing; the language of sailors who have been on high seas for long periods of time is superior.
Respect for adults is non-existent and many of the children put an act on a daily basis just because of peer pressure. They want to be cool and gain points with their friends and at the end, bus drivers/monitors are the victims because they need the money that the job provides to support their families.
We are told to fill out reports, write down with detail the incidents and it all ends up God knows where, or the child is suspended from school, which is precisely what many are looking for, an excuse not to go to school. What kind of punishment is this? How about instead of suspension, keep them at school and have them write 500 times or more "I am sorry for what I did." How about keeping them in school in a separate class and give them some assignments, such as reading a book and write a report about it so everyone knows that he/she read the book?
Support from parents? In many instances, this is a foreign thing: "Not my child" is the most common thing said. But I can't fault parents or teachers because the real guilty party is the dissolution of entire families in today's society, mostly because morals no longer count as a tools for a better community. It seems that a long time ago, God was suspended from school, and now we are feeling the consequences of His absence.
Respect for authority is a thing of the past and those of us who try to make an honest living are the victims of this new wave of behaving.
If a bus driver/monitor has the misfortune of committing a mistake, it is the end of their employment. Newspapers, television and radio stations carry the news, even if it is a minor offense. The child is protected with all kinds of rules and regulations, but who is protecting the bus driver/monitor? No one, not even the law.

The Virginia Department of Transportation is seeking the public's comment on the proposed replacement of the narrow bridge on Burkes Mill Road in the James Store area of Gloucester.
VDOT is planning on replacing the bridge over Burkes Mill Pond alongside the dam and small spillway beginning in July 2014. The $1.5 million project will require a complete road closure and detour, said a VDOT spokeswoman.
The existing bridge dates to 1940 and has a 7-ton weight limit for single-unit trucks and 27 tons for tractor-trailers. The new bridge will have a slight width increase by adding shoulders.
The length of the bridge will be about the same. The construction zone will extend to 600 feet on both sides of the bridge. Work is expected to be completed in December 2015.
The project information can be reviewed at the VDOT Saluda Residency Office at 1027 General Puller Highway in Saluda.
VDOT is also willing to hold a public hearing. To request one, send a written request to Sinan A. Rayyan, Project Manager, Virginia Department of Transportation, 87 Deacon Road, Fredericksburg, VA 22405 prior to March 15.

FedEx manager in NC accused of taking packages
FedEx manager in NC accused of taking packages
Detectives with the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office Detectives have charged a local Fed Ex facility manager with taking packages, some of which contained iPads.
The sheriff's office said Monday that 44-year old Kimberly Devore of Fayetteville is charged with embezzlement and possession of stolen property.
Investigators said a number of packages, including two containing iPad Mini tablets, were sent to the Fayetteville location, but were never delivered.
The investigation also determined that the iPad Minis were sold last December by an online store operated by Devore.
Devore has been released from the Cumberland County Detention Center under a $5,000 unsecured bond. It's not known if she has an attorney.

In December 2012, the 2nd Circuit issued a groundbreaking 2-1 decision, holding that the First Amendment protects the truthful, non-misleading off label promotion of pharmaceutical products. In U.S. v. Caronia, the court vacated the conviction of Alfred Caronia, a pharmaceutical sales representative found guilty of conspiring to introduce a misbranded drug into commerce in violation of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FDCA), finding that his conviction, premised solely on his promotion of the drug for off label use, violated his free speech rights under the First Amendment. The court held that the FDCA does not prohibit "the truthful off-label promotion of FDA-approved prescription drugs."
Although the decision was significant because of the First Amendment protection it extended to defendants facing allegations of off label marketing in certain instances, it was not clear whether it would actually affect the government's future prosecution of these cases.
The government did not seek a rehearing of the case en banc and did not appeal the decision to the Supreme Court. As reported by The Wall Street Journal, the FDA said that it did "not believe that the Caronia decision will significantly affect the agency's enforcement of the drug misbranding provisions" of the FDCA.
Because Caronia protected only truthful, non-misleading off label promotion, one would expect that in future off label cases the government would allege that the promotion included false or misleading messages (e.g., overstating the drug's efficacy or minimizing safety issues). In fact, since the decision, the government has alleged false or misleading off label promotion in each of the high-profile cases it has settled:
- Just over two weeks after the Caronia decision was announced, the Department of Justice (DOJ) and U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York (the same U.S. Attorney's Office that had prosecuted Caronia) announced a $762 million settlement with Amgen relating to the off label promotion of several drugs, in which Amgen pled guilty to one misdemeanor count under the FDCA. The government alleged that off label studies given to doctors were the same studies that the FDA had rejected as insufficient when Amgen applied to expand the indication for one of the drugs at issue.
- In March 2013, Par Pharmaceutical entered into a $45 million settlement regarding its off label promotion of Megace ES and pled guilty to one misdemeanor count under the FDCA. The DOJ contended that Par promoted the drug off label and made claims that were unsubstantiated, false and misleading. As part of its plea agreement, Par was required to dismiss, with prejudice, a lawsuit it had filed against the government, challenging on First Amendment grounds the government's application of the FDCA to "criminalize Par's truthful and non-misleading speech" about on label uses of Megace ES.
- In July 2013, Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a subsidiary of Pfizer, Inc., entered into a $490.9 million settlement regarding its off label marketing of Rapamune and pled guilty to a misbranding violation under the FDCA. Among other allegations, the government claimed that Wyeth downplayed serious safety issues associated with the off label use at issue.
- In November 2013, Johnson & Johnson entered into a $2.2 billion settlement and pled guilty to a violation of the FDCA to resolve allegations that it promoted several drugs off label and made false and misleading statements about the safety and efficacy of Risperdal.
In addition, Caronia does not yet appear to have gained traction in any context other than the criminal prosecution of an individual. For example, in McDonald-Lerner v. Neurocare Assocs., P.A., a products liability suit, two individuals sued medical device company Medtronic, a doctor and the doctor's practice, alleging that the doctor operated on one of the plaintiffs using Medtronic's device off label — which Medtronic allegedly had promoted off label — injuring the plaintiff. Defendants, citing Caronia, argued that "there is nothing illegal or improper about off- label uses, or the promotion of off-label uses, of FDA approved medical devices." The district court rejected the argument, calling the Caronia majority opinion "ill-considered" and inapplicable to civil cases.
"Caronia does not yet appear to have gained traction in any context other than the criminal prosecution of an individual."
Not surprisingly, the government has also recently taken the position that Caronia is inapplicable to cases litigated under the civil False Claims Act (FCA). In a Statement of Interest it filed in U.S. ex rel. Cestra v. Cephalon, Inc., a case in which it had declined to intervene, the United States asserted that Caronia "does not preclude a cause of action under the False Claims Act based on a manufacturer's off-label marketing of a prescription drug causing the submission of false claims to federal health care programs." The United States distinguished the FDCA from the FCA, arguing that the latter prohibits any conduct that causes the submission of false claims to the government, which include any claim for a use not approved by the FDA or supported by a compendium listing. According to the government, even if that conduct is carried out through truthful speech — the same speech that Caronia holds may be constitutionally protected under the FDCA — FCA liability could still attach.
If truthful and non-misleading off-label statements are protected by the First Amendment, then it is difficult to understand how the government could argue that the claims resulting from such statements are false and thus not reimbursable — or, at the very least, how the government could seek treble damages and penalties under the FCA from companies for claims that result from such truthful off-label statements.
In sum, since Caronia was decided, the government has not been dissuaded from pursuing off- label cases in either the civil or criminal contexts and views its holding as limited. Because the government will continue pursuing off label cases, it will be interesting to continue monitoring how, if at all, the implications of Caronia play out in various contexts involving promotion of pharmaceuticals and medical devices.

I am planning a migration of a simple VPN-1 gateway, NG w/ AI on a Dell 1750 with all user accounts stored locally in policy, to a more robust implementation whereby user identification is done via LDAP to the Active Directory server. That way, users can be granted Secure Remote access simply by adding them to appropriate groups in AD. All user AUTHENTICATION is done via hardware token (which works fine).
Currently, I would have to allow admin's to make policy changes to the users section in the FW database for them to be handle and complete user access requests. I'm NOT teaching a whole helpdesk how to use ONLY the user management portion of Smart Console, nor am I granting them this level of access. :ugh:
However, the point of my post is this:
I was describing this to a colleague, who contends that there is an inherent weakness in this version of CheckPoing VPN-1 and LDAP user management. She hasn't provided details (I've asked...) and I can't run down anything. I've googled this ad naseum without finding anything recent. Anyone have experience with this who can comment on what she is talking about?

Gold and silver prices rose Tuesday as President Barack Obama gained support for a U.S.-led strike on Syria.
Crude oil prices also rose as Obama won support from key Republicans in Congress for a strike, which could threaten to disrupt the flow of oil from the Middle East.
However, Congress remains divided, meaning it's not clear that it will sign off on an attack.
Precious metals rose as the simmering tensions over Syria prompted investors to buy safe-haven assets.
Gold for August December delivery rose $15.90 to $1,412 an ounce. Silver rose 91.9 cents to $24.382 an ounce.
Industrial metals were mixed.
December copper rose 7.15 cents to $3.3045 a pound. October platinum rose $11.10 to $1,538.20 an ounce and December palladium fell $5.90 to $717.95 an ounce.
November soybeans rose 29.25 cents to $13.8675 a bushel. December corn fell 6.75 cents to $4.7525 a bushel and December wheat also fell 6.75 cents to $6.4725 a bushel.
Crude for October delivery gained 89 cents to $108.54 a barrel in New York.
In other energy trading, wholesale gasoline dropped 3 cents to $2.86 per gallon, heating oil rose 1 cent to $3.15 per gallon and natural gas climbed 9 cents to $3.67 per 1,000 cubic feet.

On November 11th and 12th, DVCon Europe will once again take place in the lovely city of Munich. The inaugural event last year demonstrated a clear need for this event in Europe, with a focus on practical information that allowed the attendees to get a rapid, all-encompassing update on a broad range of design and verification techniques. Furthermore, it also showed the international audience those areas where Europe leads, influencing EDA development and thinking on a global basis.
This year's show promises an even bigger and better program. It is expected to grow significantly, and indeed, early registrations, the size of the exhibit, and the number of papers and tutorials all bear this out. The theme of the conference, focused on the predominantly European automotive semiconductor segment, acts as a driver for next-generation design and verification across the entire industry, given the absolute reliability requirements of these devices. Subject areas, including system-level abstraction, analog/mixed-signal devices, UVM and other advanced verification, will all be discussed during a number of networking opportunities including a Gala dinner, included as part of the registration.

Not really sure we need to concern ourselves with signing another DB. All I'm really concerned with at this point is Treadwell. It'd be nice to get Green as well but we can always pick up an elite back in next years class.

Being a Kent State grad, I'm pretty familiar with Ohio (not that Ohio). They are streaky behind the arc, very quick, and athletic. They rank near the top of NCAA in steals. When their shots are dropping they can be a load. At the same time, they dont' really have a lot of height under the rim and rely almost exclusively on their guards to make plays. I'm still trying to decide whether I like this matchup.
Additional Note: Walter Offutt, a transfer from Ohio (yes that Ohio), plays for Bobcats. He has had a very good year and was a regular contributor for Buckeyes as a freshman.

I was just talking with a friend of mine and we mutually agreed that Ty Isaac would need to have his head examined if he doesn't choose Michigan.

The recruits keep on coming! It's almost noon in Ohio and my Miller Lite is well stocked in my refrigerator.....anyone care to celebrate?

Well he didn't have a "non committable" offer from Ohio, must not be very good! I'm hoping you detect the sarcasm

I spoke with an Ohio fan who explained (a) Michigan's O-Line haul in 2012 and thus far in 2013 is irrelevant because Ohio garnered the top D-Line class in 2012. And (b) the commits with offers from both schools chose MIchigan because they didn't have "Commitable" offers from Ohio State. He can't seem to accept that Hoke and the UM staff have beat Meyer to the punch on several recruits (getting in early). Discussing football and recruiting with Ohio fans sometimes reminds of of talking to my 9 year old nephew.

This is good news! We'll have an opportunity to see BWC and QWash tonight, albeit against a weak offensive front. Pipkins will need to step it up EARLY next year as we will need him in a relief role at the very least, possibly as a starter.

I like them. Looking back I recall the stripes on the sleeves of the away jerseys. Aside from some of the finer details such as the numbers they do look much better on the players. I can only hope that the white pants are NEVER EVER worn again however. I have spoken with a few friends this week and, according to principle, I understand the reticence to accept this alternative jersey thing. In many ways I completely agree. Yet, it appears to be a vogue marketing and recruiting tool and hey, at least the three different looks we've sported haven't made us look like complete clowns (uh MSU, MD, OR)

I just spoke to a friend of mine who grew up in Pittsburgh. His words were "Pitt needs to fire their AD immediately." First, the moron hired Haywood without conducting a background check and thus was unaware that he had been arrested on domestic assault charges. Next, he chooses Graham over Bradley.

Not to worry about Dymonte, love it! Maybe Urban will use his premonitions of death and dreams of players in Ohio uniforms while he fulfills his new "Dream Job" as recruiting tactics.
