A House Divided: Chase Headley Addition
You'll often here it said, if you follow San Diego sports for any length of time, that the attitude and environment in San Diego is relaxed. For some players, this is the draw to playing in San Diego (besides weather, beaches, beer, tacos, etc). The media isn't as pushy as in New York or Boston and the fans are far more forgiving.

With a VPN connection with Cisco VPN Client and split tunneling enabled, does my outbound connection from the network I am VPNed into show my IP address as the source? I believe it does, but not sure.
Brother if you can elaborate that a nbit more i think i can help you with that
Yes, it shows your respective IP address as source on both of the splitted networks.
Split tunneling refers to the idea that some packets will get encrypted and others will not.
Neither has to do with address translation.
So either path your packets take, the source IP will still be the same unless there is some other device/property to change that!
Now, depending on what KIND of VPN it is (client vs. tunneled network) that may change... If you get an IP assigned to you by the VPN, any packet going over the VPN would show as THAT source IP address, whereas anything NOT going to the VPN (split tunnel/local) would show your original IP as the source.

Current account deficit pegged at 3.5% this fiscal: C Rangarajan

Government has pegged that the current account deficit during this fiscal to be at 3.5 per cent of the GDP, much higher than the expected levels, and there was need to bring it down at "moderate levels", Prime Minister's Economic Advisor Council Chairman Dr C Rangarajan has said.
Noting that the country was moving on a "difficult phase" on its economic growth, Rangarajan said one of the tools that was required to bring the economy back on the growth trajectory was to bring down the current account deficit.
"The current account deficit is remaining at high level and we should work towards getting the current account deficit to more moderate levels. We should aim at the current account deficit of 2.5 per cent of the GDP down from the current 4.5 per cent. But in the current year, perhaps, the current account deficit may be around 3.5 per cent of the GDP", he told reporters late last night at the sidelines of a function. Besides moderating the current account deficit, the former Reserve Bank Governor said the country was required to address some major macro-economic concerns like "taming the inflation" and addressing "fiscal deficit".
"In order to get back to the high level of growth, we need to address some major macro economic concerns -- first is to tame inflation. We had three years of high inflation. We need to bring it down to more comfortable levels. Second, the
process of fiscal consolidation must continue and we should work towards getting the fiscal deficit down to three per cent of the GDP over the next five years. Finance Minister P Chidambaram has already outlined the map for fiscal consolidation. We should adhere to it", he said.
On the Government decision to allow FDI in multi-brand retail, Rangarajan said "I think the government has taken a decision and it is trying to build a consensus on that. In democracy, there is always be some dissent (RPT) dissent. But it is a question of achieving the highest degree of consensus", he said, adding, in the long run it is "good" for the country

Following a Department of Conservation prosecution, the owner
was also required to make a donation to the New Zealand Sea
Lion Trust and apologise to the English tourists who saw the
incident and reported it to police.
Doc conservation services manager (Coastal Otago) Dave Agnew
said Doc investigated the August incident and found the dog
was not under sufficient control as it was witnessed chasing
the sea lion from the sand dunes into the ocean where it
escaped, apparently unharmed, as far as Doc could determine.
Dogs were allowed on Allans Beach, where the incident
happened, but were required to be under the control of the
owner at all time.
It was the only publicly accessed beach on the peninsula
where dogs were allowed. New Zealand sea lions were a
''critically endangered'' species which were making a slow
recovery on Otago Peninsula.
Mr Agnew said uncontrolled dogs posed a significant threat to
vulnerable wildlife such as penguins, seals and sea lions, so
Doc took incidents such as this one very seriously.
''It is very important for dog owners to act responsibly when
exercising their pets in areas where these species occur.''
In Dunedin, the self-proclaimed wildlife capital of New
Zealand, vulnerable wildlife could be present anywhere along
the coast, so dog owners needed to be vigilant, he said.
Doc had investigated two or three incidents involving dogs
and wildlife in the past 12 months. Diversion was offered
only case by case.

The question is about porosity, I can't figure it out. I first thought I was medium/high porosity (read the first post), but it just seams that my hair won't soak moisture in. But I just have the feeling too that I can't have low porosity too, because I did the test and catched up bumps and my hair isn't like some 3C haired girls where the water just lays on the hair. The other option is that I have high porosity and that the moisture leaves my hair too quickly. If that's the case, I'll have to seal my hair more (maybe with oils) and add more moisture in my daily care, I guess?
When I straighten my hair, I don't ever have to straighten it again till the next washing session (about 3/4 days later). Does this have to do something with the porosity or with the texture?
Nothing wrong with questions! What is making you think your hair won't soak moisture in? Are you confusing a damaged texture or build up with dryness, or struggling to accept your hair's condition without silicones?
High porosity/ damaged hair does not need more moisture it needs the right amount, too much water is damaging. It generally needs reduced porosity and increased elasticity - overnight coconut oil soaks on dry hair are king for this purpose.
High porosity hair also generally does not do so well with the potent humectants because they attract too much water to the hair in higher dews. The right amount of water can be held around the hair with weak humectants like cationic surfactants, fatty alcohols, hydrolysed protein, panthenol. A little oil to seal can absolutely be beneficial but it's easy to weigh down fine or wavy hair.

Found March 19, 2013 on Fox Sports:
PLAYERS: Wes Welker, Danny Amendola, Robert Kraft
TEAMS: Denver Broncos, New England Patriots
TEAMS: Denver Broncos, New England Patriots
When reports arose Monday that the Patriots had never given Wes Welker a fresh offer, it seemed fitting. While the narrative running up to this offseason was always that the Patriots wanted Welker back, with the price the sticking point, the evidence provided over recent weeks only indicated that New England never planned for Welker to return. With the Patriots quick to move on to slot receiver Danny Amendola and Welker reading the signs and going to Denver, all that was left was for both sides to tip their caps and acknowledge that, despite the public posturing, Welker was never coming back to New England. Then, on Monday, Patriots owner Robert Kraft gave his view of the situation, sharing lengthy comments about the negotiations of the usually tight-lipped club. In what appeared to be a move to save face after proclaiming that he wanted Welker to be a "Patriot for life," Kraft was emphatic that the Pats wanted Welker back and had made moves to get him. He said the problem was that Welker and his agent were asking for far more money than Welker was worth, and that the Patriots didn't see any point in negotiating further. While Welker appeared to be ready to leave the matter behind before, his representatives have piped up again now -- and for good reason. Welker's camp is saying that, as much as they respect the process and the outcome of negotiating with the Patriots, Kraft is flat-out wrong. In a statement first sent to NFL.com's Albert Breer, the group that represents Welker, Athletes First, calls into question some of what Kraft said Monday. "We are cognizant of Mr. Kraft's close friendship with Wes Welker and understand his frustration," the statement says in part. "In that light, we are not offended by Mr. Kraft's statements regarding Athletes First's role in the negotiation and are confident that Mr. Kraft has great respect for the work we do on behalf of our clients. "We do, however, feel the need to clarify some of the confusion surrounding these negotiations. Specifically, both sides are clear that the Patriots made one offer to Wes Welker since the prior negotiations ended in July 2012. Both sides also agree that this two-year offer came just hours before the start of free agency despite discussions that began at the NFL Combine. Moreover, this lone offer was presented as a 'take it or leave it offer.' When we asked if there was room for structural changes, we were told no. We made a counter-offer for the same term and same maximum dollar amount as their offer, and it was rejected. We inquired if any of the offer's components were negotiable and were told no. This refusal to actually negotiate made it easy to reject the Patriots' offer." While Kraft painted the situation as unfortunate, and something that could have been avoided if Welker had come back to the Patriots sooner, Welker's representatives framed it differently. "When we received the Denver Broncos' offer, Wes personally talked to Mr. Kraft to give the Patriots the opportunity to match it," the statement says. "The Patriots rejected this opportunity, and Wes signed with the Denver Broncos. Despite Mr. Kraft's impression to the contrary, the Patriots representatives who participated in these phone calls never indicated that the team 'would have even gone up' on their offer, or that these discussions occurred 'before we thought we were going into free agency.' Instead, the Patriots made it abundantly clear that their one offer was non-negotiable." The statement says that "no blame" is being assigned but notes that the statement was being released because "we believe it is important that the negotiations are accurately portrayed in the media." Welker and the Patriots appeared to be making their way toward a respectful end to their relationship, with both sides accepting that perhaps it was time to move on. With Kraft getting involved again, though -- and poking at the very same areas that once made Welker so irritated when he tried to negotiate with the Patriots before -- this back-and-forth could just be getting started.

GW2 Best PvP Class: What Profession Dominates PvP in Guild Wars 2Posted in PvP By admin On August 13, 2013
I've noticed a lot of threads popping up on the official Guild Wars 2 forums, GW2Guru, and other big community GW2 sites asking a specific question – what is the BEST PvP class in GW2? – well, that's a bit difficult to answer. There isn't necessarily a "best" class per se but there are definitely a few that excel in PvP better than others. But the major thing that determines the effectiveness of a class is your overall build and skill using it.
The Elementalist (or Ele for short) is one of the most versatile and powerful classes in Guild Wars 2 especially when you make use of a decent staff build because it provides tons of AoE (area of effect) attacks that dish out a lot of damage and throw down conditions, too.
A decent Ele build for PvP would be 10/20/0/10/30. That's 10 points for Fire Magic, 20 for Air Magic, 0 for Earth Magic, 10 for Water Magic, and 30 for Arcane Power. This is meant to be a staff build. With the right traits and quick reflexes it's a powerful build in PvP. The Elementalist is one of the most difficult classes to get used to if you haven't played it, though, because you have to switch attunements rather often to be effective.
Mesmers are also one of the best class selections for PvP. One of the best setups is to use a 10/30/0/25/5 build with Scepter/Sword and Sword/Pistol weapon combination. It's extremely quick and extremely effective. All you have to do is dodge your opponent's attacks and summon your phantasms while moving around your enemy. This is an incredibly strong build for 1v1 fights in PvP. It's not as effective when playing against multiple targets, though.
Thieves are pretty decent in PvP, too. They're great for quick, strong attacks. A good build that gives a lot of DPS and survivability is 0/30/30/10/0. Most Thieves stick to a Dagger/Dagger or Sword/Pistol weapon setup.
But, to answer the question of what the BEST PvP class is in GW2… Mesmer and Thief are really good especially once you learn how to use them appropriately. There are some great Guardian PvP builds out there, too, but if I had to choose I'd say go with either a Mesmer or a Thief.
Have a suggestion that isn't listed here? Know of a build that is more effective than those I mentioned? Be sure to drop a comment below and let me know!

The Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity (TKE) just finished their Teke Week event-a week-long fundraiser and competition between fraternities to raise money for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
This year the final amount raised for St. Jude was $1,400.
"For Teke Week we had a committee of about 20 guys that worked on putting it all together. We had an average of 25 guys at each event and around 100 ladies," said Boise State junior and TKE member, Daniel Taghdiri.
Not only did Teke Week raise money for a greater cause but it also donated time to benefit the local Boys and Girls Club.
"They brought about 100 kids to the SUB and we had blow-up obstacle courses, a jump house and slide."
We had ladies painting faces. And we played soccer. After that each of the sororities had prepared games to play with the kids,"
Taghdiri said.
TKE organized Teke Week as an original fundraising idea and it had a very successful first run. For other organizations, service projects or events have almost become a tradition.
The Boise State Honors College is a great example of this. Each year Honors students contribute between 750 and 1,000 hours to the greater community.
"The kinds of service projects we do are geared towards donating time, because our students have time to contribute," said Honors College Activities Coordinator Chris Hyer. "The average attendance at events is about 20 students which makes it possible to do events year after year,"
The events for the fall include volunteering at the Table Rock Cleanup, Barber to Boise and City of Trees races, Rake Up Boise and Adopt-a-Family.
"Our target is the local community because there is a direct impact," Hyer said.
It is clear that Boise State organizations and groups give back to the community and for every individual there is a different reason.
Some do it for the feeling of accomplishment.
"For me it is helping others. It is nice to see the smiles. I also like hard work because I feel extremely accomplished when it is over," said TKE member Jim Kemp.
For others there is a larger goal in mind: Considering the well-being of everyone involved.
"The best part for me is when people stop thinking about themselves all the time and start to realize that our collaborative happiness and well being is much more satisfying than anything else and the whole thing grows exponentially," Tagdhiri said.
Last but not least, it is important to have a good time and enjoy lending a helpful hand.
"The service is a part of the Honors College experience, part of creating a well-rounded student and we have a lot of fun doing it," Hyer said.

Comprehensive data model. Strong workflow engine. Several integration options.
With Open UI it is now not IE only product. Introduction of CRM Desktop plugin for Outlook gives nice offline capabilities without installation of additional software.
Whole configurations and modifications stored in one binary file. Depends on the company polices about SDLC that could be a problem especially with regression testing. Hard to define what should be tested and what is not. Also in-app reporting is implemented by use of OBIEE Publisher and requires OBIEE instance. All marketing analytics is done via predefined set of subject areas and OLAP schema for OBIEE.
Siebel implementation requires very extensive and detailed planning. Depends on complexity of a project it usually takes from 3-6 month to implement new application. In case of migrating legacy application which includes data loads add 1 or 2 additional months.
This system does provide large navigation tabs and logical search fields for researching accounts. Adding a new account is relatively easy and the List Management feature is great for storing leads. The marketing campaign is another great feature to help your company determine ROI of marketing strategies. Extracting data function is very simple to use.
The user interface does not seem to be as updated as most other CRM systems like salesforce. Some of the features are not intuitive. In fact it can be very intimidating to first-time users. It does take some time to learn for those that are not very familiar with database systems. In my experience, I had to create many workarounds just to get 1 contract transacted. Processing times can be very extensive. This is not a very automated system. You have to put a lot of effort into manual work. It takes a while to incorporate automation. Also, for the past year I have been running into errors using the promotion feature. There seems to be an issue that my IT team is having trouble fixing. Another item to note is that there is not way of creating multiple accounts at once unless you create a batching software program to aid in this. My company had to spend time creating a an excel macro that was compatible with siebel in order to batch large lists of accounts that needed...
This is an average system. Sometime quotes, pricing, and contract processing can become an issue. This is not a good system to generate customized reports. You have to export the data if you want to customize. You might be better off using Access depending on your companies needs.
It is highly customizable to meet internal work flow processes - and all needed customer information is available for the user.
however the customization impacts normally the performance - also from my point of view it is more a sales orientated tool and not really usable as a quick contact logging tool in customer service contact centers (1st level Help Desk) where a quick contact logging including easy navigation is needed.
Special expertise is needed to configure and customize it - high effort in training for the needed know how.
All in all it is a good tool and I am sure its perfect for big companies where a customization is needed.
To avoid over customization I would recommend to be clear in your requirements.
Different Levels of Configuration and Management, Diversity of OS and RDBMS supported, OOB features that support Small and Big Enterprises, Web based and the most important, easy to integrate with legacy solutions and migrate data.
Special expertize is needed to follow the Tool Best Practices configuration, Expert Resources are hard to find, Internal Object Classes might bring issues or limit the customization.
No package solution is 100% available to the customer or allows very detailed customizations however Oracle Siebel allows each company to drive its business customizing its OOB features to accomplish the requirement and even thought this might need a Siebel Tools developer the outcome 99% percent of the time helps the business to Manage the Customer Relationship in Detail with a stable and Friendly solution.
Good workflow capability and quite flexible in terms of customisation. Lots of industry-specific support, which is good if it exactly fits requirements (rare). Extensive data model which is good if it matches customer requirements.
Siebel is effectively a 'data model out of the box'. It often takes more time reverse-engineering what is there to see it it fits requirements, than it would take to define and configure it in more modern platforms like Salesforce.com. It is also not very stable or performant, and requires the purchase of hardware as it is an on-premise platform. It is also a significant upfront investment.
Since Oracle have released their Fusion applications and purchased RightNow CX, Siebel likely has a limited future. It is based on old, on-premise technology which has now been superseded by the aformentioned Oracle products and 'Cloud' players like Salesforce.com.

A pop-cult fix for a generation that grew up playing Nintendo and watching Saturday morning cartoons
The devices on this page represent the best among their respective categories.
"Reservoir Dogs," "Seven," "The Exorcist," and other disturbing movies get a kid-friendly restyling thanks to artist Todd Spence, who wants to swap screams with smiles.
The Asus Transformer Book T100 revives the Netbook value proposition (and Netbook usability issues) in a budget-price 10-inch laptop that doubles as a tablet. You won't love it, but for sheer bang for the buck, it's hard to beat.
The 13.3-inch device features a detachable keyboard and easily switches OS with the simple push of a button.
Pricing not available
Formerly the Samsung Series 9, the rebranded Ativ Book 9 got little more than a change in name; the laptop feels dated, as it lacks a touch screen and the benefits of newer Intel processors.
One minute the Asus Transformer Book T300 is a Windows 8 laptop, but the next minute it's a Windows 8 tablet.
Pricing not available
The Asus Transformer Book Trio combines Windows 8 and Android in a laptop, tablet, and desktop computer.
Pricing not available
If you're just looking for an all-around excellently made Windows touch ultrabook and don't mind that it's on the expensive side (and doesn't convert to a tablet), the improved Samsung Ativ Book 9 Plus is worth the investment.
Hands-on with the 15-inch version of Samsung's Ativ Book 9, which includes hardware for lossless music playback.
Pricing not available
Samsung's latest budget spin on a Windows touch-screen, AMD-powered, ultrabook-esque laptop has some flair, but the corners it cuts aren't worth the money saved.
Asus adds a lot of what I've been looking for in a hybrid to the Transformer Book, but no one has yet really nailed the perfect laptop/tablet combo.

Valerian flowers in the early summer, and the aroma of the heady white honeyed flowers drifts enticingly through the warm air of sweet afternoon. It is enough to give the bees a buzz, and sometimes one finds them there, in the morning, inside their little valeriana hammock, inebriated to the point of inaction. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Professional Interests
My research focuses on kleptoplasty in Sacoglossans, an unusual relationship where sea slugs steal, maintain, and use chloroplasts from their algal food sources, for up to 11 months in some species. I am interested in how the chloroplasts are sequestered by the sea slugs, and how they can be maintained and remain functional in some species for such extended periods of time. My research strongly suggests that the sea slug Elysia chlorotica has acquired functional, nuclear encoded algal genes from its food source, Vaucheria litorea, via horizontal gene transfer. These transferred genes likely help the extreme, long term maintenance of chloroplasts in this species. I utilize an integrated approach to understanding this phenomenon incorporating physiological, cell and molecular, genetic, genomic, and microscopical techniques. I am also interested in phycology, including phylogenetics, and I am currently helping to examine the genome of the algae Vaucheria litorea.

This weekend could really be considered the beginning of fall in this region as you feel the cooler temperatures and see more leaves changing colors, plus Columbus Day is Monday. But in these parts the real observance is the annual Prater's Mill Country Fair that gets underway in Varnell.
For the 42nd year, too.
The water-powered grist mill itself dates back to the 1850s and still grinds corn as it did in its beginning.
And once again this weekend the grounds around the mill on Coahulla Creek will come alive with hundreds of people browsing by the booths manned by dozens of artisans and craftsmen selling rural-themed items ranging from handmade quilts to canned salsas.
Crafts demonstrations include blacksmithing, wood carving, chair caning and hand tufting, a cottage industry that evolved into the tufted carpet industry centered in Dalton.
Appalachian heritage is abundant with continuous entertainment supplied by cloggers and bluegrass musicians as well as gospel singers.
And let's not forget to recommend the food offerings, including favorites ranging from apple fritters to chicken and dumplings.
Presented by the nonprofit Prater's Mill Foundation, this annual tradition that has become part of the fabric of Whitfield County could not continue to be a success without the dedication of volunteers and devoted organizers.
So set aside some time this weekend to take a fun look back at "the way things used to be." It's something that will likely become a part of your family's traditions, if it isn't already.
Prater's Mill: A fall tradition
This weekend could really be considered the beginning of fall in this region as you feel the cooler temperatures and see more leaves changing colors, plus Columbus Day is Monday. But in these parts the real observance is the annual Prater's Mill Country Fair that gets underway in Varnell.

Scouts' work helped make park opening possible
Neither snow nor rain nor bitter cold stopped two local Boy Scouts from completing work vital to opening Whitfield County's newest historical park.
Roy Everrett Baggett
Roy Everrett Baggett, 66, of Chatsworth, passed away on Thursday, April 24, 2014, surrounded by his loving family.
Library must reach decision soon
Four months ago the board of the Chatsworth-Murray Library announced it would leave the Northwest Georgia Regional Library System by June 30 of this year, the end of the library system's fiscal year.
Letter: Concert was spectacular
I believe Dalton achieved its most beautiful moment last April 18, on Thornton Avenue. It occurred in the sanctuary of First United Methodist Church of Dalton.
An important part of the fight
The lawns of Dalton City Hall and the Murray County Courthouse are filled with pinwheels this week.
Mark Millican: Not just for college students
It was the seemingly unanswerable question of the campus — and especially the faculty — when I first attended Dalton Junior College in the 1973-74 school year: "Is man inherently good, or inherently evil?"
Charles Oliver: Evidence at the last minute or later
In New York, Bronx County Criminal Court Judge John Wilson has banned prosecutor Megan Teesdale from his court.
Misty Watson: Turns out, I'm a millennial
The word millennial always conjures up this image of a guy wearing skinny jeans, Converse high tops, a plaid button-up shirt, thick-rimmed glasses, a hat, facial hair and a messenger bag slung over his shoulder.
Understandable uncertainty from taxpayers
It's not yet official, but Dalton residents should expect to pay more in school property taxes this year.
Letter Candidate outlines his platform
To the citizens of Dalton and Whitfield County,
My name is Dr. Nicky P. Starling and I am a candidate for Whitfield County Commissioner District 1. I did not attend the Republican forum on April 8 because a pastor friend was killed by a drunk driver and I chose to support his family at a memorial service.

Can you please share the questions you were > asked. That will be great help to me. While I haven't interviewed precisely for Python, I've been on the other (interviewing) end and can offer a few of the sorts of things I ask. I don't expect perfect answers to all of them, but they show me a range of what the interviewee knows. I try and give a scattershot of questions from the following areas to try and narrow down where they fall in terms of pythonability, and then grill more deeply around the edges that I find. Basic Python: ============= - do they know a tuple/list/dict when they see it? - when to use list vs. tuple vs. dict. vs. set - can they use list comprehensions (and know when not to abuse them? :) - can they use tuple unpacking for assignment? - string building...do they use "+=" or do they build a list and use .join() to recombine them efficiently - truth-value testing questions and observations (do they write "if x == True" or do they just write "if x") - basic file-processing (iterating over a file's lines) - basic understanding of exception handling Broader Basic Python: ===================== - questions about the standard library ("do you know if there's a standard library for doing X?", or "in which library would you find [common functionality Y]?") Most of these are related to the more common libraries such as os/os.path/sys/re/itertools - questions about iterators/generators - questions about map/reduce/sum/etc family of functions - questions about "special" methods (__<foo>__) More Advanced Python: ===================== - can they manipulate functions as first-class objects (Python makes it easy, but do they know how) - more detailed questions about the std. libraries (such as datetime/email/csv/zipfile/networking/optparse/unittest) - questions about testing (unittests/doctests) - questions about docstrings vs. comments, and the "Why" of them - more detailed questions about regular expressions - questions about mutability - keyword/list parameters and unpacked kwd args - questions about popular 3rd-party toolkits (BeautifulSoup, pyparsing...mostly if they know about them and when to use them, not so much about implementation details) - questions about monkey-patching - questions about PDB - questions about properties vs. getters/setters - questions about classmethods - questions about scope/name-resolution - use of lambda Python History: =============== - decorators added in which version? - "batteries included" SQL-capible DB in which version? - the difference between "class Foo" and "class Foo(object)" - questions from "import this" about pythonic code Python Resources: ================= - what do they know about various Python web frameworks (knowing a few names is usually good enough, though knowledge about the frameworks is a nice plus) such as Django, TurboGears, Zope, etc. - what do they know about various Python GUI frameworks and the pros/cons of them (tkinter, wx, pykde, etc) - where do they go with Python related questions (c.l.p, google, google-groups, etc) Other Process-releated things: ============================== - do they use revision control (RCS/CVS/Subversion/Mercurial/Git...anything but VSS) and know how to use it well - do they write automated tests for their code Touchy-feely things: ==================== - tabs vs. spaces, and their reasoning - reason for choosing Python - choice of editor/IDE Good luck with your interviewing and hope this helped, -tkc

This week, Canonical announced a reworked version of Ubuntu at the Computex trade show in Taiwan. The new Ubuntu Netbook Remix (UNR) is specifically built for new so-called "netbooks" -- mini laptops with small screens geared towards Web browsing and built on Intel's new, low-power micro-architecture called Atom. The new version will allow users to access email, browse the Internet, and use instant messaging, and provide online access to music, photos, and videos, all in one small, affordable package.
For the Netbook Remix, Canonical uses the standard Ubuntu Desktop and Ubuntu Mobile Edition as a base. It adds a customized Ubuntu Mobile Edition Launcher that allows users to get online quickly and launch their favourite applications.

- Smart As Assistant Producer
Nicolo Accordino
has posted up two new videos today showcasing Smart As, which hits PS Vita on October 30th, 2012.
To quote: We're launching PS Vita's all-new social brain training game, Smart As, on October 30th in North America.
We've been hard at work loading Smart As with fun and engaging puzzle games to put your mental might to the test with challenges in four key areas: Logic, Arithmetic, Language and Observation.
As we recently announced, Smart As also features the voice talent of Monty Python's John Cleese; so as you train, you'll receive his encouragement and cheeky commentary. Better still, as you play and improve your scores, you'll get to share your stats with Smart As fans from around the world via the online leaderboards, as well as on Facebook and Twitter.
Here's a sneak peek at the some of our favorite Logic and Arithmetic challenges.
As you can see in this video, the Logic games are designed to test your ability to solve puzzles as quickly as possible.

NEGOTIATIONS on a deal forcing European Union listed companies to change their auditors every ten years are set to restart this evening, Accountancy Age understands.
Sajjad Karim, the British MEP leading the project, pulled out of discussions earlier this month because member states were unable to agree on the package of legislative measures intended to improve the quality of audit.
The reforms, originally proposed by EC internal markets commissioner Michel Barnier in 2010, are intended to reduce the concentration of the audit services being provided by the Big Four accountancy firms of PwC, KPMG, Deloitte and EY.
On December 5, Karim scrapped the scheduled informal tripartite meeting between parliament, the EU Council and European Commission, raising concerns that the reforms would drag on into 2014.
The process had been delayed because of disputes over issues such as banning accountancy firms from giving tax advice to companies whose books they were already auditing.
Should the meeting, to be held this evening, prove successful, it is possible that a deal could be agreed by the end of the year.

OK i def saw Logan walking up the steps out of the subway, along with Iron Man incarnation. Very cool nod to those characters if thats what you were after. hehe Only thing I have is, is the main character a bad guy or what? he kinda has an evil look on his face the whole way.
Less talk, more screams
This is cool. It reads really well and is well drawn out. I will admit that he does look evil alot though. My favorite scene is when he is bustin out the window. That looks awsome.
hehe this is so absurd, I like it
nice drawings too
Matt - I think he just got severely pissed off.
WOW! WOW! WOW! You rock!
Great drawings, but why the heck did he jump out of the window...? Just to show off?
Some nice daily inspirations: http://www.theroundtablet.com
Very good details. Also "take action" looks professional
does he jump out the window every time he gets an exciting assignment??
awsome pages man, thanks alot for sharing!
I self-published a book on the fundamentals of drawing from life.
its good to see comic work by someone with no fear
beautiful pencils!
I like how you shape your characters.
and the line work for your shading is nice.
shadows might be of a handfull for inkers, but that doesnt mean it wont look good!
I can tell you put alot of time into this,
because you can see some progression/change from the 1st page to the last
I dont get what you mean by that?Originally Posted by benzo
I like it!
reminds me of strongbad's (homestarrunner.com) dangeresque movies
"So I'm going to haVE TO "
I love how by the last page, you can't even tell it's the same artist anymore. You improved a lot just within 5 pages, it's pretty amazing. Story-telling wise, I think there's a few things that could've been more exciting here and there.
Some nice daily inspirations: http://www.theroundtablet.com
Thanks guys, do you really think I improved that much just over 6 pages?
And He's not evil, at least not in the same way Dr. Doom is. The expression on his face was mostly just to show off his cockiness, that he can do all this crazy, death-defying stuff without breaking a sweat, as if it's just part of his daily routine.
And the reason he jumps out the window (and it'll be a little more clear when the dialog is added in) is because he's given an assignment to collect a Tyrannosaurus (presumably to be stuffed) and there's a big fat bonus if it's done quickly, so he doesn't want to waste time with something as trite as the stairs. Also he seems to be a bit of an adreneline junkie.
Masterful stuff, Reilly. Your use of line is truly inspirational, and your expressions are all nothing less than perfection. Great sequentials on your wensite, too. My crit would be on the whole "subway station to dinosaur land" sequence. I had to re-read the comic to pick up the "transdimentional portal" sign, and even then, it didn't seem to make much sense.
A webcomic of Apocalyptic proportions.
i think the portal sequence works fine and it will be even more clear once it's colored. the fact that it doesn't really make sense, well, it's just one of those stories, so you can't really critique that. if the artist says there's a time portal in the subway, then there's a time portal in the subway. Good fortune that the T-Rex was waiting there for him too! My question is, how does he get that thing back through the door? And who wants the damn T-Rex anyway? Inquiring minds want to know...
What can I say, this is really cool. I havn't seen much pre-coloured comic art. Makes one appreciate how much effort and talent goes into a comic book.
Smokin work. I didn't really like the first couple of pages but the middle and the end the drawing style just has much more feeling to it. Awesome. I love when he leans on the rex to use his cell phone. cool sh1t.

Awesome! No kix at all... great movement, anathomy, everything!
fan-tas-tic! i dont know where the dinosaur came from, but who cares! its so sweet it doesnt have to make sense, great anatomy and movement!!!!!!

Ive done it before and ill do it again BWAHAHAHA!
Darkstream: Heh, that's funny. I also immediatly thought "Logan" when I saw that guy on the stairs.
Hm, I didn't pick up on the transdimensional portal either. Are we going to get to see it colored and with dialouge?
As always sir brown your work is badazz! I just have to say it has been a pleasure knowing you over the past six years. Your work is always improving and i love the use of perspective you have been using lately.
@ Reilly - The overhead of the comic, reminds me of my homepage logo, a bit.

that kicked ass! very easy to follow and awesome detail.
there's a fishy in my hair!
Wow, great pencils and great storytelling.
hope to see the finished pages here, too!
It looks great, but what are the storry, I assume that this is in the middle of something, or does the guy just go berserk at the office and jump like 20 storries and then runs away?

2012 candidate registration deadlines
Original post made by [removed] on May 16, 2011
As communities, neighborhoods, groups and parties plan opponents for the 2012 political races, it is important to note the candidate registration dates for the 2012 primary. After the Alaska Senate race in 2010, there are completely new campaign techniques to achieve new representation more compliant to communities' and neighborhoods' will and interests.
The last date to register a candidate for the 2012 primary ballot is March 9, 2012. The last date to register a write-in candidate for the 2012 primary ballot is May 22, 2012
District III neighborhoods are planning campaigns for new candidates now to end incumbents' automatic re-elections. Neighborhoods' plan is quite simple. The campaigns will be e-viral using the majority of voters in District III that are part of neighborhood e-exchanges. Neighborhoods will declare their candidate at the very last opportunity to register as a ballot candidate or more likely a write-in candidate so incumbents' campaigns have no target for attack until after neighborhoods have engaged a majority of voters for their candidates.

I interrupt this nostalgia session to mention that I'm closing down the fundraiding for Henry. At the end of the day we raised $700 for him. The whomping stick was ordered last week - it came in around $140 for everything, so the remainder will be sent to Henry this week with a card (probably as a cashiers check) containing the names of everyone who posted well wishes or sent him some money.
Well done everyone and thanks to all who gave.
