Windy City PerformanceAs usual for U2 that played to perfection. The event started on the rooftop of Chicago with food, wine and U2 memorabilia. The playlist included old favorites and the best of Vertigo
21 January, 2012
First Major ConcertThe show was completely AWESOME! My favorite track in it was "Breathe". My most memorable moment was when I was walking to Solider Field and U2 drove right pass me, and seeing this enormous stage while walking to my seats. It was completely life changing to me at the age of 10.

Chicago Night 1 North AmericaMy wife and I flew in from Vancouver, I couldn't wait til the end of the tour to see U2. It was one of the best days of my life. The city itself was great, saw the Cubs play a nooner at Wrigley Field, than stumbled to the "Cubby Bear" for pre concert drinks. What a great day. To top it all off "Bad" made one of its only appearances of the tour. My favourtie Song ever, can't get enough. Open air concerts are always the greatest.

One we must carry each otherWe decided last minute to drive there from Canada (Ontario) and bought our tickets online, I was So happy I could not help but get caught up in the energy of the night with Bono leading us in Positive vibrations, truly Transcendental and uplifting, I had not seen them in 25 years as I had been in Africa. I plan on Seeing them in Toronto and Lansing in 2010 and maybe Chicago if I can manage it. I Will Follow.

What a FeelingSo opening night in Chicago...my first U2 concert. I had listened to the cd tons...and knew that breathe was my favorite from the get go. My girlfriend was nice enough to get us these tickets...and planned this trip. It is one thing to go to a concert...it is something else going to a U2 concert. When the Drum Beat started...it was Breathe....are you kidding me. The guys come walking out. Unreal. It was my first concert with my girlfriend. I was glad I got to share this with her. We have our tickets and looking to celebrate a few months shy of one year back in chicago. You guessed....July 6th watching U2...are you kidding me. I figured is was a once in a life time chance last time....now I get to see them again. This time I know it isn't just chance...I get to see it with the women I love.

U2360 in Chicago = AMAZING!I flew up to Chicago from Nashville for my first ever U2 show. I had never been to Chicago either. What a amazing city to visit - when it's not cold! I was on the G.A. line all day - from 6 AM - and had fun meeting new people. And then it was show time... What a great band! What a great show! What a freakin' awesome night! Being dead center on the back rail of the the inner circle was amazing. Now I understand why people travel from show to show. What a fun and memorable time. As soon as I got back home I bought G.A. tickets for the October 2009 Atlanta show. If you've never been to a U2 show, don't let the next one slip by. I regret not seeing them earlier, but I'll never miss another tour as long as I'm above ground. In fact I have my G.A. ticket for the June 2010 show in Chicago. After being so close in the inner circle (see attached photo that I took), I don't think I would ever want to buy a seat. G. A. all the way!

I didn't want it to end!!!We got stuck in traffic on Michigan Avenue, so we missed Snow Patrol, but when U2 came out nothing else mattered...We had great seats, but early on security asked if we wanted to move closer to the stage!!! Heck ya...This was one of the best concerts I've been too...I only wish they had played The Sweetest Thing, and All I Want Is You... Can't wait to see them again in July :)))
16 November, 2009
Running down the road like loose electriThis was my first U2 concert. What a thrilling and spiritual experience! The feeling of being in Soldier Field with 70,000 other fans all singing along to the wonderful set list in incomparable. I will seek out this experience again! In fact I will be buying tickets tomorrow for the East Lansing concert! I can't believe they are coming right to be. It's a dream come true! I live 13 miles away! Wow, I can't wait again!
07 November, 2009
See you in Chicago again...Loved the show last September 12 and I got my tickets for next July. I live in New Orleans, my boyfriend lives in Chicago. We both love your music so much. I´m originally from Argentina and in my teenage years I couldn´t stop listening to your melodies. I didn´t realize I practically have all your discography. Hope you can make it to Latin America. Andrea

FIRST SHOW EVER!!I can check one of my bucket list!! And they did "Bad", and I think I cried but so did two guys sitting in the row in front of me. I couldn't speak the next day but I had to recover quickly because I was going to the second show and nothing was going to stop me!!!! Truly as good as I always thought they would be, never forget it. IT WAS AWESOME Thanks guys!!!

SEC 350 ROW 6My best friend and I traveled from Whiteman AFB Missouri to Chicago to see our favorite band on their opening US night! Coincidentally Soldier Field is home to our favorite football team DA BEARS!!! I've always wanted to see them live since I bought their album The Joshua Tree on cassette when I was a kid. I totally lost it when they played Where the Streets Have No Name. I was floored by their stage show, and the light display. I am luckily gonna use my last 2 pre-sale tickets to grab another pair to see them with my wife in Chicago July 6, 2010, which happens to be my birthday as well! I'll see you next July U2!!!!
27 October, 2009
I still get goosebumps thinking about itThis was the third time my husband and I have seen U2, and let me tell you....I think,no - I know they are the greatest performers in the world!!!! I loved the show and the whole Chicago experience was absolutely MAGNIFICENT!!!!! I so badly want to see the fellas from Ireland again and again and again.
13 October, 2009
great show....but missing somethingThe sound, set, and stage were all great. There was excitement, but a certain emotion was missing for many Americans. The first show in the US was on the day after a most tragic and remembered event to Americans: 9/11/01. Past experience would have us expect a word and a prayer from the band. We remember Madison Square Garden in October 2001 when the stage was filled with police and firemen sharing experiences and pacing the walkway to the emotion of Walk On, and when the band proclaimed Sunday Bloody Sunday as "America's song" too. From that time on it has been a given that Bullet the Blue Sky be dedicated to the brave men and women in uniform. Not on 9/12/09 in Chicago. There was no Bullet the Blue Sky and Walk On was given away. While it was an awesome performance, many who expected to share special emotions once again with band left in an empty state of emotional purgatory. As Americans did we ask too much...more than alot?

YOU ARE FAB AND ROCK,!!!STILL reeling from the terrific amazing concert. Acoustics were great, night, YOU Musicians!, Politicians, Fathers and Brothers, we ADORE you and have since my first concert at Soldier field (before the face lift/POP). You melt my hehart. You are like BUTTA! KEEP on rockin me baby, love to all! PEACE FROM CHICAGO AND ALL THE IRISH LAWYERS THAT LOVE TO ROCKOUT!!!
30 September, 2009
Flyin to Chi-townUnexpectedly moved to DC after buying tix but excitedly flew back for this show. Tip of the hat to the designers and entire crew for presenting a really rockin professional show and allowing the band to connect for a new LIVE high. Well worth the trip. Enjoyed Bono's personalization of the city attractions molded into lyrics and the cover music snippets that blended in seamlessly to complemented their songs, reminded me of Zeppelin. In the 21st C. U2 reign on top of the world. Tanks a whole punch boys!
23 September, 2009
First show and loved it!My wife and I came in from Omaha and spent the weekend. Waited six months to see this show since we got tickets, and had waited lifetime to make it (marriage, kids, college, etc . . .) Ended up 20 feet outside the outer ring dead center on the drum set and loved every minute! Breathe was awesome to open, and "Unknown Caller" was much better live than anticipated. "Crazy" remix was better live than on bootlegs. "Ultraviolet" was amazing; you could see the intensity Bono was singing with. Loved "Bad" to follow up "One"; haven't seen on any of the set lists that they've done that again. Can't wait for the opportunity to bring our 10 year old again. Any word on a second North America leg?

This is the new promotional video (and outstanding illustrations) for the 2014 Mercedes S-Class and it all makes no sense. But that's okay. Here's why.
This little film was shot by none other than Chris Kippenberger, the Most Interesting Man In Car Porn, along with HighSnobiety. Here's how he describes his own work:
I have no idea what the film is about - bout like traveling with models a lot!!!
I'm sure Kippenberger was sitting in some white leather five star hotel room grinning ear to ear under a floral print bucket hat as he wrote this. And if it's alright with Kippenberger, it's alright with me.
He also managed to get these absolutely fantastic illustrations done by Olka Osadzinska for the S-Class, too.

Headed to prison for the rest of his life, Jerry Sandusky leaves behind a trail of human and legal wreckage that could take years to clear away.
Victims face a lifetime of healing. Penn State is laboring under severe NCAA penalties. And at least four civil lawsuits have been filed against a university shamed by scandal, with more likely to come.
If Sandusky felt any remorse or pity for anyone but himself, he didn't show it at his sentencing Tuesday. Instead, speaking in court for the first time since his arrest last November, the former Penn State assistant football coach delivered a disjointed and defiant monologue in which he denied committing "disgusting acts" against children and cast himself as the victim.
U.S. & World
Sitting behind him were the actual victims — the young men who testified that Sandusky serially molested them when they were children, using his position of influence and authority to gain their trust and then violate their innocence.
"I am troubled with flashbacks of his naked body, something that will never be erased from my memory," said a victim who was 13 when Sandusky lured him into a Penn State shower and forced him to touch the ex-coach. Another victim told Sandusky he suffered from "deep painful wounds that you caused and had been buried in the garden of my heart for many years."
Sandusky, 68, was sentenced to at least 30 years in prison for sexually abusing 10 boys, a scandal that brought disgrace to Penn State and triggered the downfall of his former boss, Hall of Fame coach Joe Paterno.
While the criminal case against Sandusky is over, the fallout will persist. With Penn State facing enormous civil liability, the university has said it wants to "privately, expeditiously and fairly" settle with Sandusky's victims.
Ben Andreozzi, an attorney for one of them, said Tuesday the university will need to do more: "It's important they understand before we get into serious discussions about money, that there are other, noneconomic issues. We need apologies. We need changes in policy. This isn't just about money."
An investigation commissioned by Penn State and led by former FBI Director Louis Freeh concluded that Paterno and other top officials covered up allegations against Sandusky for more than a decade to avoid bad publicity.
After the report came out last summer, the NCAA fined Penn State a record $60 million, barred the football team from postseason play for four years, cut the number of scholarships it can award, and erased 14 years of victories for Paterno, stripping him of his standing as the winningest coach in the history of big-time college football.
Two university administrators, Gary Schultz and Tim Curley, are awaiting trial in January on charges they failed to properly report suspicions about Sandusky and lied to the grand jury that investigated him.
Given the chance to speak before learning his sentence, Sandusky chose to focus on himself.
"In my heart I did not do these alleged disgusting acts," he said.
He described instances in which he helped children and did good works in the community, adding: "I've forgiven, I've been forgiven. I've comforted others, I've been comforted. I've been kissed by dogs, I've been bit by dogs. I've conformed, I've also been different. I've been me. I've been loved, I've been hated."
About the only thing that didn't come out of his mouth was an apology. Mental health professionals say it's not unusual for sex offenders to avoid taking responsibility, either in a bid to get out of legal trouble or because they're in psychological denial. Prosecutor Joe McGettigan dismissed Sandusky's comments as "a masterpiece of banal self-delusion, completely untethered from reality."
Sandusky had easy access to children through The Second Mile, the charity for troubled youths he founded in the 1970s. One question left unanswered is how many more possible victims have come forward since Sandusky's arrest last November — and how many have kept quiet.
Mitchell Garabedian, a Boston attorney who represents a 40-year-old man who says he was molested by Sandusky as a 16-year-old high school football player, said he believes Sandusky's pedophilia goes back decades, and urged the attorney general's office to consider another criminal prosecution.
"In all probability, he sexually molested hundreds of children over the course of decades," Garabedian said. "He was cunning, clever and conniving."
A spokesman for state Attorney General Linda Kelly declined comment on whether Sandusky could face additional charges, citing an ongoing grand jury investigation. But the statute of limitations would likely bar prosecutors from going after Sandusky for older crimes. Current Pennsylvania law allows them to file charges until a child victim's 50th birthday — but only for cases involving victims born Aug. 27, 1984 or later.
With Sandusky's lawyers preparing an appeal of his conviction and sentence, it might be wise for prosecutors to line up additional alleged victims — but only if they are willing to go through a high-profile trial, said Kristen Houser of the Pennsylvania Coalition Against Rape.
"This case looks like it's over as of today, but you never know where things will take a turn," she said.

Traffic stops: New ideas on positioning, movement, and safety
A new study by Force Science Institute is the first of its kind to systematically and scientifically evaluate officer responses to deadly threats encountered during a "routine" traffic stop
A couple weeks ago I wrote that "officers spend a lot of their time in (and around) vehicles, so getting into gunfights near cars is pretty common."
With that in mind, I want to call your attention to an excellent new study from Force Science Institute entitled "The Influence of Officer Positioning on Movement During a Threatening Traffic Stop Scenario."
The study primarily sought to examine the influence of officer position relative to the B-Pillar of a vehicle on tactical responses to a lethal threat in a traffic stop scenario, with the secondary purpose of observing the responses, reactions, and movements made by the officers... To say the least, the findings are fascinating...
Starts with the Hands
Upon reading the new FSI report, I connected via phone with Dr. Bill Lewinski, a behavioral scientist specializing in law enforcement-related issues — Bill Lewinski is also the driving force behind all Force Science Institute research.
"Control of the subject's hands was the most-critical element that we could find for officer safety," Lewinski told me early in our discussion.
"Controlling of the hands is really critical, and you don't have to be rude about it. Many of our officers who were able to gain control of our assailant's hands did so by very positive, assertive persuasion."
Lewinski offered examples like: 'Sir, for my safety and yours, please place your hands on the steering wheel. Thank you very much.' and 'Sir, I'd like to see your hands please, thank you very much.'
"These simple commands are persuasive in gaining cooperation without ordering people: 'Hands on the steering wheel!'," Lewinski said.
Speaking of hands, Lewinski addressed one concern about where the subject's hands should be placed — the steering wheel and dashboard are good, the ceiling is not.
"There were some [criminal gang members] here in the Minnesota area that actually had guns placed in the sunroofs. So when officers told them to put their hands on the ceiling, the officers were actually directing them to where they kept their guns," Lewinski said.
Positioning and Movement
"No matter how an officer positions [himself or herself], their position alone does not guarantee safety from an assault within the vehicle," Lewinski said right up front.
That being said, there were some observable differences in officers safely moving to what FSI calls the mitigation zone (see the image to the left) at the rear of the vehicle. Those differences stemmed from both officer's initial positioning (driver's side versus passenger side) as well as the path taken by the officers toward that mitigation zone.
First off, it appears that the closer the officers moved in relation to the vehicle — moving parallel to the vehicle, instead of arcing out — seemed to let them get to that mitigation zone more quickly.
"Most of the officers arced out in reaction — many officers went parallel to the vehicle, and reached the mitigation zone faster," Lewinski told me.
"If the officers had this in mind as they approached the vehicle, and then the assault started, they appeared to be able to engage in that movement as part of their reflexive withdrawal," Lewinski said.
Furthermore, analysis revealed that the point at which the participants drew their weapon had an influence on the amount of time it took to reach the mitigation zone. Officers who first disengaged and then drew their weapons seemed to be more successful in the scenarios than those who had tried to draw and then move or who drew and moved simultaneously.
Lewinski added that a passenger-side approach — depending upon the circumstances — potentially has the highest probability of being the safest approach for protection against assaults from within the vehicle.
One reason the passenger-side approach could be the safest is the finding that from the driver's position (in an assault to an officer on the passenger's side) "the driver cannot continue to track the officer without bumping into the headrest and other obstacles inside the vehicle."
While we know the passenger-side approach can also potentially provide some protection against environmental factors (such as being struck by an approaching vehicle in the roadway) the passenger side has its own set of potential dangers.
Notably, Lewinski cautions that threats may exist from both the front passenger seat and the back seat of the vehicle while utilizing that passenger-side approach.
Two Interesting Outliers
Force Science Institute researchers spend a considerable amount of time comparing an officer's memory of their critical incident simulations with the actual sequence of events in those simulations.
This study was no different, as the team videotaped (using a special camera positioned overhead on a scissor-lift) and debriefed the participants after the fact, enabling comparison of the officers' memory of their path of travel and their actual path of travel as seen on video.
"Not surprisingly, officers scrambling to survive in that type of situation aren't paying attention to other irrelevant things like where they're travelling, where in their path of travel they drew their gun, where in the path of travel they shot from," Lewinski explained.
"In the realm of life, as they're trying to force a response forward, those things are not important. So they're not remembering things that civilians might expect them to."
One thing that was a surprise, Lewinski said, was the speed of the officers' initial response.
Even though they were remembering their response beginning at one point, their reflexive response captured on that computer-aided movement analysis videotape indicates that they were reacting much earlier than they remember.
"Many said they first realized they were under threat when they saw the gun presented toward them. We did a computer analysis of movement — using modern technology, tagging their body parts to analyze their movement in comparison to the initial assault of our assailant — and the officers started to move almost at the same time as our assailant initiated his movement."
It's possible that they were subconsciously reading something which alerted their brain to danger — which then initiated a physical reaction — even before the conscious brain could compute a thought about precisely what that danger was.
Another notable observation, Lewinski told me, was a small set of officers whose startle response was markedly different from the rest.
While the vast majority of the subjects had a reflexive startle response to recoil backwards, away from the threat, there was a small number — three officers — "who moved forward and tactically engaged by pushing the gun aside, drawing their own gun, and controlling the gun of the assailant before it fired at them," Lewinski said.
Those three officers moved forward to control the weapon from very close range — and we're talking no more than two or three feet — and were able to suppress the threat before the assailant's gun went off, "while the remaining 90 participants were often shot multiple times," the study said.
"That's not something we're advocating for general instruction," Lewinski stated, "primarily because we're not certain how successful it would be.
"We just recognized that it was a successful strategy in this encounter, and that we need more research on that."
Yes, Doctor, we certainly do...
Conclusions and Additional Information
First and foremost among my conclusions is this: If you don't already get the Force Science Newsletter, you should sign up immediately — FSI is required reading.
Further, I want to reiterate the three specific conclusions I took from reviewing the study and subsequently speaking with Dr. Lewinski.
1.) As Dave Smith (J.D. 'Buck' Savage) famously said, watching and controlling the suspect's hands is paramount to ensuring officer safety
2.) When terrain and circumstance permit, a passenger-side approach might afford a safer path to the mitigation zone at the rear of the vehicle
3.) Moving forward toward the threat, when you're near enough to quickly close distance and neutralize the assailant, is a potentially viable option
Finally, I want to thank Dr. Bill Lewinski — and all my friends at Force Science Institute, including Chuck Remsberg, Scott Buhrmaster, and Patricia Thiem — for their ongoing (and incredible) work in the pursuit of better understanding the dynamics of deadly-force encounters.
We need much more research on the fundamental stuff that cops do, and FSI is the driving force behind putting science toward what the line officer does every day on the street.

Then I asked you to provide an example of somehow the left moving more to the left on policy issues, as a counter example to my specific policy statements where Republicans have clearly moved to the right, and Democrats have also moved to the right by advocating policies that were designed and defended by Republicans. You gave no specific policies.
Can you quote any of the specific instances where you did give such a policy and I ignored you? The only specific policy you mentioned in response to my questions was something about bailouts as somehow an example of Republicans moving to the left, which I specifically addressed and showed why that is incorrect (e.g it used to be a policy that both parties supported and now Republicans do not - yet another example of the right wing movement of the party).

Re: "U.S. Rep. DeGette looks strong in redrawn 1st CD," June 23 news story.
The Denver Post's story on Rep. Diana DeGette resembles in no way my personal experience with my member of Congress or her staff.
In my conversations with Rep. DeGette at Democratic Party and community events, she is engaged, personable and takes the time to think, listen and respond. She takes the high road and avoids petty inter-party squabbles; perhaps this is why those who thrive on unproductive inter-party drama dislike her above-the-fray style.
As to constituent services, it is rare to attend a community event and not see her district director, Morris Price; he is engaged, listens and asks questions, and follows up when research is required.
Your article asserts: "What DeGette has done best she has done in Washington." That is the job she's been elected eight times to do, and why she has my enthusiastic vote in November. Voters send representatives to Congress to do an important job, and Rep. Diana DeGette continues to prove herself in that most critical role.
Matthew J. Dickson, Denver
This letter was published online only.
The photo of Diana Degette with Levetta Brown of People United for Families on page 9A of your June 23 edition had a hilarious sign held by Ms. Brown. Do those silly progressives really believe that a "tax break" (which was keeping the tax rate at the "then"-current level — was not really a "break" at all) for rich people is equal to giving them public assistance, like welfare handouts are in fact, to the poor? I have a hard time believing that Ms. Brown or Repr. Degette are that ignorant. The alternative is very frightening to me, so I always give people the benefit of the doubt.
Thank you for the political humor this morning. With everything this bad in the U.S., we need a laugh!
Brad W. Clay, Castle Rock

VANCOUVER – One of British Columbia's leading marijuana advocates says he's going to raise an army of well-trained, disciplined volunteers for his effort to decriminalize possession and use of cannabis by adults.
Elections BC announced Thursday it has approved in principle an initiative petition filed by Dana Larsen, who ran unsuccessfully for the leadership of B.C.'s New Democrats.
Larsen's draft bill, entitled the Sensible Policing Act, would amend the Police Act, and prohibit the use of provincial police resources to enforce simple possession-and-use laws for adults.
It also asks the province to call upon the federal government to repeal marijuana prohibition laws or give B.C. an exemption.
Elections BC announced it will issue the petition Nov. 19, giving Larsen 90 days to collect the signatures of more than 10 per cent of registered voters in each of B.C.'s 85 electoral districts.
However, Larsen said he won't be gathering signatures this fall.
Instead, he'll use the petition to generate attention and gather volunteers to find, train, excite and mobilize "an army of well-trained disciplined signature gatherers."
He said he will submit another application in September 2013 and then begin the process of collecting signatures.
"It is a very difficult procedure, absolutely," he said in an interview. "It's a big challenge. That's why we're doing it in this unique way of spending a year in advance to build support and build up our volunteer base.
"I am very confident that far more than 10 per cent of the registered voters in every riding of the province support decriminalization of cannabis."
Attorney General and Justice Minister Shirley Bond was unavailable for an interview, but said in a statement that she recognizes the initiative process is available to any registered voter in B.C.
"However, I have confidence that our Police Act currently meets our public safety responsibility to communities right across the province."
She also noted that her government had no authority to make decisions on decriminalization.
"What it means is that unless Canadian law is changed, the production, sale and use of marijuana is currently illegal and controlled by federal legislation and our police have a responsibility to enforce the Criminal Code."
Peter Lepine, chief constable of the West Vancouver Police Department and president of the BC Association of Chiefs of Police, declined to comment on the politics behind the bill.
"At the end of the day from a policing perspective, we're tasked with enforcing the laws as the laws are written," he said.
Larsen said many British Columbians recognize police resources could be better spent on "serious criminal offences," and many want to see cannabis laws reformed.
However, police are spending more time and resources on enforcing possession laws and charges have doubled between 2005 and 2010, Larsen said.
Neil Boyd, a criminology professor at Simon Fraser University, agreed with Larsen on the possession statistics, noting charges have jumped from 1,700 in 2005 to 3,500 in 2010 even though use hasn't changed.
Boyd said 10 to 20 per cent of B.C.'s population has used marijuana in the last year.
"I do think it makes sense not to enforce marijuana possession laws," he said.
Boyd said police report about 15,000 cases annually, but only 3,000 people are charged.
"So there is an enormous amount of discretion exercised," said Boyd.
He said police in some jurisdictions ignore use, while in others marijuana is confiscated and nothing's done; meantime, in other areas, charges are laid.
Larsen said he'll need several hundred thousand dollars and thousands of volunteers to gather a minimum of 400,000 signatures in order to try to change the law.
If he succeeds in gaining the required signatures, the province's chief electoral officer will have to verify the petition before sending it to a legislative committee, according to Elections BC.
After receiving the petition and the proposed bill, the committee must meet within 30 days and then has 90 days to consider the legislative proposal.
It can then recommend the introduction of the draft bill or send it back to the chief electoral officer for a vote.
Elections BC says those votes occur every three years, and the next initiative is scheduled for Sept. 27, 2014.
This is the eighth initiative petition application to be approved since 1995, when the legislation came into effect.
The last initiative, and only successful petition, was to end the Harmonized Sales Tax.
It was later approved in a referendum, forcing the province to go back a the goods and services tax and the provincial sales tax.

Apricots for Linux is a game where you fly a little plane around the screen and shoot things and drop bombs on enemy targets, and it's meant to be quick
and fun.
You fly a little plane around and shoot things and drop bombs.
Despite the name, it has nothing to do with apricots. It's a game where you fly a little plane around the screen and shoot things and drop bombs on enemy targets, and it's meant to be quick and fun.
There can be up to 6 planes, at most two human-controlled. All others will be computer-controlled. Network support is in to do list.
You must shoot at another's planes, destroy others' base and try to keep alive. You may return to your base to refill your ammo. The scenery is randomly generated.
This program was written as a configuration front end for the apricots game, found here. The game on its own requires manual editing of the configuration file to change options, there is at present no options screen. This graphical front end takes the hassle out of constantly editing the configuration file manually, as you can set options on the interface and the program will then write the configuration file for you. All you need to do is tell the program where your configuration file is!
This program is free and open source, much like apricots itself. Unlike apricots, it is written in java - this has the advantage that it is almost guaranteed to run on windows, linux or any other platform support by the JRE. For more questions, please visit the FAQ page.
What's New in This Release:
· Sanity check on configuration options now applied
· Configuration from apricots.cfg extended to all options at runtime
· Portability Bugfixes applied to getConfig()
· Mouse pointer now hidden during game
· Major code cleanup in sampleio class. Looks tidier, but BUG1 still present
· BORLAND specific options in apricots.cpp found to be redundant Removed.
· Game speed now properly regulated by TICK_INTERVAL parameter (Fixes BUG2)

NASCAR has suspended the two Richard Childress Racing crew members arrested for fighting with Nelson Piquet Jr. at Richmond.
Thomas Costello and Michael Searce were both suspended for four Nationwide Series races and fined $15,000 each. They were also placed on probation until the end of the year for the altercation in the motorhome lot after Friday night's race.
Henrico County police charged Searce with two counts of misdemeanor assault, and Costello with one count of misdemeanor assault. NASCAR cited "actions detrimental to stock car racing. Involved in an altercation with another competitor after the race had concluded," as reason for their punishment.
The altercation happened long after Scott and Piquet tangled on the track and then on pit road after the race. Scott approached Piquet, and Piquet shoved him and kicked Scott in the groin.
Piquet tweeted on Saturday night a friend of his hurt his shoulder in the fight with the RCR crew members, whom team owner Richard Childress claimed "were walking to their cars and words were exchanged with members from another team, which led to an altercation."
Piquet also made light of kicking Scott.
"Afterwards on pit road, my first reaction was to defend myself. I had no intent to break the code," he posted on Twitter. "With that kick, no wonder I race cars and not play soccer. I look forward to moving on and racing again."
Piquet and Scott are on probation, until June 26, for slamming their cars into each other on the track. Also on probation are Piquet crew chief Chris Carrier and Scott crew chief Phil Gould.

Comcast plans to expand its IPv6-based offerings for business customers with the launch of commercial broadband and Metro Ethernet services that support the next-gen Internet Protocol later this year.
John Brzozowski, chief architect for IPv6 and distinguished engineer at Comcast, said the ISP will start a trial of IPv6-enabled commercial broadband service in May. Aimed at small businesses, home offices and teleworkers, the new IPv6-enabled cable modem service will be available in Philadelphia, Denver and Silicon Valley first.
"We've completed the rollout of IPv6 on half of our broadband network," Brzozowski said. "Wherever we've upgraded our network, that's where we are going to start with our commercial broadband service."
[ RELATED: Why the Internet needs IPv6 ]
Later in 2013, Comcast plans to announce IPv6 support for its Metro Ethernet service.
"We've had quite a few people asking us to enable IPv6 on Metro E, not to the tune of hundreds of thousands but more than we anticipated," Brzozowski said.
The new IPv6 capabilities will available at no extra charge to Comcast's business customers.
Comcast will post a link on its website -- http://www.comcast6.net/ --where commercial broadband customers can sign up for the IPv6 trial.
Comcast will finish deploying IPv6 to all of its residential customers in 2013. Currently, more than 3% of its residential customer base is actively using IPv6. "We expect that 3% to increase dramatically by the end of the year," Brzozowski said.
He added that the biggest roadblock to IPv6 deployment right now is lack of support by consumer electronics manufacturers, particularly those that produce TVs, Blue ray players and game consoles.
The Internet needs IPv6 because it is running out of addresses using the original version of the Internet Protocol, called IPv4. IPv4 uses 32-bit addresses and can support 4.3 billion devices connected directly to the Internet. IPv6, on the other hand, uses 128-bit addresses and provides such a vast number of addresses that it can only be expressed mathematically: 3.4 times 10 to the 38th power.

Hydrogenation is the process of making certain unsaturated fats or oils more saturated such that they have a higher melting point and a longer shelf-life. If not completed hydrogenated, some unsaturated fats turn into trans-unsaturated fats. This partial hydrogenation is performed when the desired effect is a product that is solid at room temperature but melts upon baking or consumption.
Trans fats, when eaten, increases one's risk of coronary heart disease by raising LDL ("bad") cholesterol and lowering HDL or "good" cholesterol.
In order to emulsify the oils and other ingredients with water, companies should hydrogenate instead of using synthetic emulsifiers such as PEG, which also have very negative health effects. During this process, companies should ensure that the oil is completely hydrogenated so that NO TRANS FATS are produced. Hence hydrogenated oils in products will not affect levels of LDL or HDL if consumed.
Most hydrogenated oils reviewed on the Skin Deep database have a safety ranking of 0 (low hazard).

UH Board of Regents accepts Task Group's recommendation on presidential searchUniversity of Hawaiʻi
Mia Noguchi, (808) 956-9095
External Affairs & University Relations
HONOLULU — At a special meeting held on Feb. 28, 2006, the University of Hawaiʻi Board of Regents (BOR) unanimously voted to accept the recommendation of the Board's Task Group on the Presidential Search to suspend the national search for a president and offer the position to current UH Interim President David McClain.
"I have come to fully appreciate David McClain's vision to increase autonomy for this institution and to develop a better understanding and appreciation throughout the state for all that our university system is and can be" said BOR Chair Kitty Lagareta.
Lagareta noted McClain's ability to get things done, the clarity of his perspective on what needs to be done to move the university forward, his willingness to listen, his leadership and courage in making hard and sometimes unpopular decisions.
At the BOR's regular meeting held earlier this month, the Task Group on the Presidential Search submitted a report to the Board describing its efforts in the process of a national search for the president's position. After a Request for Proposals (RFP) was sent out in mid-December 2005, two highly qualified national search firms were selected to a short list and interviewed. The Task Group also sought counsel from national experts on the roles and responsibilities of system presidents nationally, as well as on the search firms selected.
The overall feedback was that the Board of Regents should first seek to keep McClain onboard and offer him the permanent position.
The BOR will now begin negotiations with McClain on a contract for the position.

Set Your DVR: Week of 11.27.12Posted by bmulvihill on November 27th, 2012
Brendon Mulvihill is the head curator for @SportsGawker and an RTC contributor. You can find him @TheMulv on Twitter. See bottom of the post for the Official RTC Star System.
The ACC-Big Ten Challenge on Tuesday/Wednesday nights will give us some of the best non-conference match-ups we'll see this season. It should be a great battle between two of the top conferences in the nation. We sneak in Kentucky vs. Notre Dame also later this week. Let's get to the breakdowns.
#23 Minnesota at #25 Florida State – 7:15 PM EST, Tuesday on ESPN2 (****)
- Minnesota comes into this game battle tested from a tough, early non-conference schedule. With the exception of the Gophers' loss to Duke, Tubby Smith's squad is winning with defense. Typically, we would say the same thing about Florida State's defense, but it's their offense that is winning their games this season. The Seminoles are shooting 56% from two and 41% from three. While Minnesota has only allowed opponents to hit 29.6% of their three-point attempts this season, they have been susceptible to the long ball in their last three outings. Additionally, they have been poor on the defensive glass, allowing teams to grab 37% of their misses. FSU has four players that shoot over 40% from beyond the arc and they are actually taller than the Gophers, particularly in the backcourt. Pay close attention to FSU's three-point shooting and offensive rebounding in this one. Because Minnesota is not a great shooting team, they are going to have to figure out a way to deal with the Seminoles' size on the offensive glass. Thus far, the Gophers are grabbing 47.3% of their missed shots on the offensive end, which is good for fourth in the nation. The winner of this game will be the team that owns the offensive glass.
#21 North Carolina State at #5 Michigan – 7:30 PM EST, Tuesday on ESPN (*****)
- Both of these teams are in the top 20 in effective field goal percentage thus far in the season. Three-point shooting will be a key factor in this match-up with both teams hovering right around the 40% mark. The Wolfpack is led by Rodney Purvis and Scott Wood on the outside, shooting 58.8% and 44.8% respectively. Those are the only two players on NC State who have attempted more than 10 three-point shots on the season. The Wolverines, however, have four players – Trey Burke, Tim Hardaway Jr., Nik Stauskas, and Glenn Robinson III – who have attempted 10+ threes and all are shooting at over 30%. Both teams are middle of the pack at defending the outside shot, so it will be interesting to see who is able to take this advantage. While offensive firepower seems to be the key in this game, defense will ultimately determine the winner. Michigan has held all of its opponents under a point per possession this season and has proven it can win ugly against Pittsburgh. NC State is the best offense UM has faced thus far, though, but the question remains if the Wolfpack can hold off the plethora of Wolverines who can score. NC State is coming off a shellacking at the hands of Oklahoma State and a very close win against UNC-Asheville, where they allowed an eFG of 56.3%. If they don't improve that field goal defense against Michigan, they will get crushed again.

About this Business
From Our Editors
Armed with just a single, generations-old cookie recipe, Great American Cookies opened its first store in 1977, and the rest is history. Today, the franchise boasts locations in malls across the country and nabbed a coveted spot on Entrepreneur magazine's 2012 Top 500 Franchises in the baked-goods category. As the shop's reputation grew, so did its menu as chefs churned out a mouthwatering roster of gourmet-cookie recipes, each created and carefully tested in Atlanta. The tempting options now include snickerdoodle, peanut butter with M&Ms, and chewy pecan supreme, as well as freshly baked fudge and cheesecake brownies, and cookie sandwiches stuffed with frosting. The real show-stoppers, however, are the giant chocolate-chip cookie cakes, which can be customized with sweet, celebratory messages or shopping lists penned in colorful icing.

The news headlines about Thomas Cook Holidays financial woes certainly makes worrying reading especially if you've already booked your La Gomera holiday with them.
Hopefully they'll pull through and carry on to be a successful provider of La Gomera holidays for the UK holidaymaker.
If you haven't yet booked your La Gomera holiday then we'd suggest a serious look at the TUI Group owned duo of First Choice Holidays and TUI Holidays . They appear to be a very financially sound group.
- TUI Holidays – La Gomera holidays from the biggest name in package holidays.
- First Choice Holidays – All-Inclusive La Gomera Holidays.
TUI Airways fly to La Gomera from regional and national airports all across the UK.Share

Kevin Love Interested in Warriors
Discuss anything related to Golden State Warriors basketball here
Moderators: Mr. Crackerz, JREED, Guybrush, 32
Of course, we're interested in him...
Early speculation is that we'll need to trade Lee + Thompson + future picks. I don't like it if we have to deal Klay, but if we can find a way to get them to take Barnes (plus...?) instead, I'd like it.

I have a bit of a general question about math books. I get the feeling that in a lot of math books, the organization for the theorems and lemmas are not explained well (ex. Topics in Algebra Herstein, Linear Algebra Hoffman).
So I'm curious what you all think about the advantages/disadvantages of this. Because on the one hand, it forces one to create the connections for themselves. But on the other hand, it makes the presentation less clear and interesting.
In the classes that I have taken, I find that I have to constantly bother the Professors to motivate what is going on instead of just going along and providing the stripped down proofs.
Furthermore, I am wondering what you all do to rectify this problem. Last semester, I had a great opportunity to speak with a professor about the reading that I did each week but it makes it much harder to study things independently when there is nobody to give perspective on why we are doing what we are doing. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

All arrivals in heaven have to go through a bureaucratic examination to determine whether admission will be granted. One room has a clerk who is inputting into the computerized records what each applicant did on his or her last day of life.
The first applicant of the day explains that his last day was not a good one. "I came home early and found my wife lying naked in bed. She claimed she had just gotten out of the shower. Well, her hair was dry and I checked the shower and it was completely dry too. I knew she was into some hanky-panky and began to look for her lover. I went onto the balcony of our 9th floor apartment and found the SOB clinging to the rail by his finger tips. I was so angry that I began bashing his fingers with a flower pot. He let go and fell, but his fall was broken by some awnings and bushes. On seeing he was still alive I found super human strength to drag our antique cedar chest to the balcony and throw it over. It hit the man and killed him. At this point the stress got to me and I suffered a massive heart attack and died.". The clerk thanked him and sent him on to the next office.
The 2d applicant said that his last day was his worst. "I was on the roof of an apartment building working on the AC equipment. I stumbled over my tools and toppled off the building. I managed to grab onto the balcony rail of a 9th floor apartment but some idiot came rushing out on the balcony and bashed my hands with a flower pot. I fell but hit some awnings and bushes and survived, but as I looked up I saw a huge chest falling toward me. I tried to crawl out of the way but failed and was hit and killed by the chest." The clerk can't help but chuckle as he directs the man to the next room.
He is still giggling when his 3d customer of the day enters. He apologizes and says "I doubt that your last day was as interesting as the fellow in here just before you, but go ahead. I don't know" replies the man, "picture this, I'm buck nekked hidin' in this cedar chest....."
