The Green Onion has been described as a "Tulsa icon" for many family celebrations and great food.
It hasn't always been the shining jewel it was originally praised to be though. The restaurant came under disrepair with original owner Dave Ingram. He sold it, and the new owners struggled to keep the place alive and going. It closed last year.
The icon refused to die, however. New owner Max Doyle desired to keep it open and going, while several other Tulsa treasures had fallen. Doyle's name might be familiar to you as he's also the owner of The Chalkboard and Garlic Rose.
"I love the response from everybody about hearing that the Green Onion is open again," said Jason Mead, General Manager of the newly remodeled and newly opened Green Onion.
This coming year Green Onion will celebrate its 25th anniversary, and after its Oct. 26 reopening and with new ownership and management in tow, customers will be pleased with what they find.
Mead said one of the main changes customers will notice is the "face lift"--new paint, new carpet, new ceiling and new local art work.
"The basic structure is there, but we did a deep cleaning and brightened it up a little," he explained.
The changes are noticeable once you walk in. It has a welcoming feel about it; the new lighting has brightened the dining room, yet it remains cozy and intimate. More spacing among the tables is something to consider.
Beyond the cosmetic changes, menu revisions are minimal. Mead said Corporate Chef John Fard of all three restaurants has "all the original recipes that have been around for almost 25 years and has blended some of the old menu favorites with some new selections.
"For example the Stuffed Mushrooms as an appetizer is the same as it always was and is still very popular," he said. These shrooms are stuffed with a blend of cheese, bacon, green onion and topped with garlic butter and then baked. Also, the Baked Brie--imported Dutch brie wrapped in puff pastry and baked to golden brown and served with raspberry sauce, fresh fruit and toast points--is an "old favorite" and remains on the menu. The House Salad of field greens tossed with homemade lemon balsamic vinaigrette and topped with cucumbers and tomatoes is also a crowd favorite that made the cut.
A new appetizer, Mead said, is the Bruschetta, which gets rave reviews from The Chalkboard and Garlic Rose customers, as "one of the most popular items." Additionally, he said they kept some of the Green Onion standards, such as a few of the steaks, lobster and Rack of Lamb.
"A new popular item is the Smoked Chicken Torteloni, which is a really light dish (homemade pasta tossed in light butter sauce with tomatoes, green onions, and mushrooms). We have something as simple as the Chicken Picatta up to lobster."
The Chicken Picatta ($15.95) is what I selected when I dined here recently, while my friend selected the Peppered Steak ($24.95). But we began with a Cheese Plate appetizer ($12.95).
According to the menu, the Cheese Plate includes Brie, smoked cheddar, gorgonzola and smoked Gouda with seasonal fruit, pepperocini, olives and marinated mushrooms served with toast points.
Our plate deviated a bit. In place of brie, we had blue cheese, which was very good and--perhaps done on a whimsical note--had rectangular-cut slices of American cheese included on the plate, too. We like American cheese but surprised to see it served on a cheese plate among such other stately cheeses. Marinated mushrooms (perhaps in Lowry's seasoning salt and Worsteshire sauce), kalamata olives, crisp red grapes accompanied the plate. A nice touch when serving the Cheese Plate would be to have the server introduce the cheeses being served.
My Chicken Picatta is described as a "classic" picatta; the chicken breast was sautéed and a lemon-caper white wine sauce blanketed the chicken and angel hair pasta. The chicken was delightfully tender, moist and had a solid flavor.
Many capers topped the chicken, which I reveled in, enjoying the salty capers with the citrus-lemon sauce. The pasta was a little too soft, I thought, to hold with the chicken, though. The vegetable medley of julienne-cut zucchini, carrots and squash was average.
My dining companion's Peppered Steak was a 10-oz. black Angus sirloin rolled in course ground pepper then grilled; plenty of sautéed white onions, mushrooms and red and green bell peppers topped the steak. The steak's edges were seared to a crispiness that my friend enjoyed--for both the contrast of taste and texture. The steak was prepared perfectly at medium rare and was lean and firm with a bold meaty flavor.
Green Onion's famous baked potato was excellent. Our server clued us in on how they are prepared. The potatoes are bought already peeled and are then steamed and deep fried to crisp the edges. The result is a fully edible, crispy and tender potato.
Our experience was very pleasant, but we found a few areas that could have made this a better experience. Our black tablecloth had a number of noticeable spots from earlier diners; the salt and pepper shakers were sticky; our cheese plate had a number of fingerprints and water spots on them; and our service was good, but our server was shared among at least seven other tables at one time. He was pulled in too many directions and checked on us at odd intervals.
Green Onion also serves lunch and Sunday Brunch. Green Onion's lunch menu has a number of the dinner items but at reduced prices and smaller portions. The Open Face Sirloin Sandwich is the priciest at $15.95. Sandwiches and salads are the main fare.
Mead said the Sunday Brunch, 11am-2:30pm, is quite good with "a little something for everyone." At $16.95 for adults and $5.95 for children 7 and under, the Brunch options include a carving station, omelet station, and salad bar, Eggs Benedict, waffles and more. Live music is performed during Sunday Brunch and Wednesday through Saturday.

Gon Bops founder Mariano Bobadilla built only one line of drums special enough to put his name on: the Mariano Series.
Today Gon Bops is proud to offer a modern version of their classic instrument of legend. A lot of time and effort was devoted to finding a wood that was similar in both physical properties and sound to the original Gon Bops Mariano Series Congas. After intensive research and experimentation, durian wood was selected. Lighter in weight than the other woods Gon Bops uses for its drums, Durian wood is harvested from old, non-productive fruit trees that are then replanted making it a sustainable resource.
To round out the vintage sound of this series, the drums feature traditional counter hoops and authentic Latin American cowhide heads. Gon Bops makes the Mariano Series in the traditional Cuban shape. These drums feature Gon Bops compact hardware which is engineered to decrease the stress on the shell and hardware making it more durable and easier to tune.
The latest reincarnation of a legendary conga series was worth waiting for!

Hi guys! I'm currently shopping for a new pc..Probably a i7 920.. The thing is i have a choice of 2 graphic cards...And don't know which one should i get Radeon hd4870x2 2048mb or GEFORCE gtx 285 1024mb I thing the X2 in the Radeon is worthless in 3d apps..Am i right? So Is the 2048mb worth the 100$ more or should i just get the geforce? My pc is mainly for 3dsMax 2010 ,and some other apps like Vue,zbrush and photoshop.. Any help would be appreciated!! Thanks!!
hmmm well their not 3d program cards but i use my GX2's for rendering and i can tell you vram is mad important though it all depends on your patience level and deadline times both would render pretty quick my apps are as follows in case you need a veiwpoint 3DS Max 2010 Bryce 6.1 lightwave 9 Maya 8.5 Adobe CS4 Master collection suite Poser 7 Conitec 3d game studio A7 terragen 1 and 2 Gmax
Are you saying that in rendering mode my render app will recognize the x2 and will render a bit faster? What about in viewport, do you think there's a big difference between the two's? Considering that the Radeon is 100$ more? I use some evermotion library (vegetation..I'm in the 3d architectural field) Thanks for your quick response !!
some programs deffinetely recognize more than 1 card as for exact card well are you redering images or scenes? in imagines the ATI will render faster but it will probably be neglagable...in scenes though more cards and more vram will make a huge diffirence.
If most of the applications/programs you use are optimized to use two ATi GPU's then the 4870X2 for sure. If not The GTX285 or even higher clocked HD 4890(it's cheaper) would be fine. The best way to decide is to make a list of all the applications you use, then research each application to see if it can work with ATi CrossFire.
http://www.motherboards.org/reviews/hardware/1825_10.html ati cards usually outperform nvidia's in apps like 3dsmax but the 4870x2 dosen't scale well in them i would get a 4890 if i were you
Maybe I missed something, but why not get a workstation graphics card? I know they're expensive, but they're much, much faster than Geforce/Radeon cards.
Angelkiller For what i've read, it's seems they don't justify the price. A lot of people are saying that the gamer's pc are almost as fast as the workstations today. Same for the graphic cards... The thing about the graphic cards is that i'm shopping with Dell...And the xps 730 are my options for now, they seems pretty good for 3d apps and cost much less..And they offer those 2 cards.. I'm also looking at the Precision t7500 http://configure.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?c=ca&CS=cabsdt1&l=en&oc=T7500_R_E but it seems less impressive than the xps730x.. http://configure.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?c=ca&CS=cabsdt1&l=en&OC=DT_X730_F2_BE That's where i am!! I'm willing to pay about 2500.00$
that is not true... a workstation gfx card, the quadro FX 3800 (which runs about $899) renders: - 3dsmax04 at 46.12 - Catia-02 at 49.51 - ensight at 46.12 -SPECapc3ds Max 2009 at 5.52 a $500 GTX 295 renders - 3dsmax04 at 10.75 - Catia-02 at 13.86 - ensight at 17.23 -SPECapc3ds Max 2009 at 3.18 (INFO TAKEN FROM CPU MAGAZINE sept. 2009 issue) and this type of trends extends to just about any (barring cinebench) 3d rendering app... the workstation card renders sometimes 400% faster than the top of the line dual GPU offering. It uses less than half the power (only one six pin connector), and runs much quieter. Performance/$ is owned by workstation cards in the workstation space... Basically, you can spend $900 on the GFX card and $1000 on the rest of the system (if you build it) and have a monster rendering machine for $1900. All you have to do is put it together and voila.
You read CPU too? I was going to refer to the same article. Workstation graphics cards blow gaming cards out of the water in terms of professional apps. No competition. The GTX 295 is even beat by a FirePro V3750, which uses similar hardware to a 4670. Workstation cards are optimized through software to perform really well in 3D apps and the difference between a non-optimized gaming card and a worstation card is huge. I was getting my numbers and info from an article in CPU Magazine. I'd recommend running over to a bookstore and reading the article. (p24 of the Sept 09 issue) If you really want speed in professional apps, you might want to look at these Dells. They have workstation graphics card options. I think you can get a pretty sick machine for alot less than $2500. The system that phanbuey put together is on the lines of what I was thinking. But if you don't want to build it yourself (I strongly recommend building it yourself, even if you're unsure about your skills), you can always just get a similarly configured Dell from the link above. But the Dell will likely be more expensive... The $1800 config is only equipped with 2GB of RAM and an 80GB HDD. :shadedshu
Lol yeah i was quoting the sept 2009 article... I mean, building workstations is always better than buying. That $2500 dell will get blown out of the water with a custom built workstation IMO. BTW... that Dell Precision T7500 is a MASSIVE computer, the Industrial Engineering department has those, and they are literally bigger and heavier than a WC'd full tower tower. Beasts.
First..thank you guys for helping me so quickly!! Here's what a friend of mine wrote me... Basically, for most people, quadro cards are a waste of money. Also, in the benchmarks done, SLI was actually more of a hinderance than a benefit. These were done on 'real world' scenes. I've recently done tests on a Quadro 4800, and without performance drivers, neither it nor the Quadro 5600 can best a GeForce 285. I will be getting a second 4800 in the next week or so, so I can do benchmarks on SLI in a Quadro environment. That said, NVIdia told me this week that performance drivers are in the final stages of development, and new 800 class cards will come with software to improve encoding out of premiere, not just for the CX. So then the Quadro cards will have an edge, but I expect it to be marginal, and not worth the price difference unless every -second- counts. I'm so confuse about what to get..
if its mostly for 3dsmax a quadro card will kill... here if you want, try this... buy the fx3800 $800 card from newegg and see if it works... if it doesn't then send it back. $20 bucks lost tops. I guarantee a 285 won't hold a candle to it in 3dsmax, and performance drivers make a 4x-5x difference. You pay for the drivers really.
I would go with this one if I needed a rendering pc: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102768 It is kind of expensive though... VRAM is very important for rendering.
Thanks YinYan... Yeah...i think i'll get that one...Even if it's 100$ more than the gtx 285... Still trying to learn more about the differences between these 2 cards in Max viewport and in rendreings....But my mind is almost set Since i'll probably be doing some renderings on that machine, 2048mb is probably better than the gtx 285 which is 1024mb... Anymore thoughts? Thanks a lot guys for the quick responses! Cheers!!
hi moris7 and welcome to TPU............. well from what I know ....... 3dsmax rendering depend much much more on CPU than on GPU and VRAM ........... and you if you got your self a Quadro you'll get the most difference in viewport not in render ........ even low-med end quadro is better than good geforce in viewport working its because of the drivers ....... and I've read in some 3d forums that ATI card radeon and FirePro have more problems with 3dsmax than nvidia cards not sure about it but keep it in mind ......
Hello, I'm a new at TPU. I work at 3d apps to. 3dsmax 2009, Autocad 2010, and Photoshop CS 4 is the most 3d apps I used. I have hd4870 512 mb, GTX 285, and Quadro FX 1800. None of the Geforce/Radeon can help you in viewport. In large model at 3ds max; do rotate, move, or copy with gaming card is nearly imposible. It makes me frustating. Even with GTX 285 makes me desperate. Because of that, I deside to buy Quadro. I try Quadro fx3800 and fx1800. I test both of them, compare one each other. Finaly I decided to use FX 1800 than FX3800. At 3ds max 2009, FX1800 perform faster performance than FX3800. At autocad 2010 both perform equal. Now with Quadro FX1800 I can do job faster, and smother. I can play games with FX1800 to. Sorry for my bad English.
That's exactly what I would expect from using those cards. The Geforce/Radeon cards are optimized for gaming and don't do well in 3D apps. Everything I've read confirms this also. For the record, the FX 1800 appears to be based off a 9600GSO and the FX 1800 appears to be based off the 8800GT.
the FX3800 is a cut down GTX260(FX4800) with a GT200 core, but the bandwidth really hurts its performance http://www.solidsmack.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/quaddro-fx-linecard.jpg it might look like a good card but but unlike the rest of the GT200's that have more than 20 it only has 16rops, and when rendering scenes rops = performance, more than shaders,
angelkiller and KainXS, both of your are correct. For the spec.....yes FX3800 is 3x shader procesing power than FX1800. But it doesn't show its power at 3ds max 2009 or autocad 2010. In Open GL, FX1800 and FX3800 has identical performance. I can give you the result. FX3800 has all the spec and technology for new GPU, like SDI, stereo, SLI multi OS, so it cost lots of money. But performance almost same.......I don't know why.......
I give you the realworld application 3dsmax 2009 review in viewport. My project have 2 million poligon and 1,7 million vertex. I set the camera, in walkthrough, 500 frame. Edge faces, smooth+highlight is active. I use stopwatch to count from frame 0 to 500.

your best bet is to buy 2 fe-male aux to single male and connect it that way. just use master volume on either vdj or table and slowly bring one in and one out or combian it all togeather...this is what i did worked perfectly for exttra work....you find a better way let me know.

Tips to keep blood sugar steady
By Nancy Klobassa Davidson, R.N., and Peggy Moreland, R.N.
42 comments posted
Do you pig out when you have a low blood sugar? Does it seem you can't stuff enough food into your mouth at once to make that desperate feeling go away?
I've been told by my patients that avoiding overeating when you are experiencing low blood sugar is about the hardest thing you can do. That's because your body is physically telling you to put everything you possibly can eat into your mouth.
Hunger is one of the symptoms of low blood sugar, unfortunately it takes a while for the food to absorb and the brain to get the signal everything will be OK. The only source of fuel the brain effectively uses is glucose, and it takes at least 15 minutes before the blood glucose will start to rise after treating a low glucose. You may not feel any relief for a while longer after the treatment.
Here are some ways to help you resist over-treating and avoid the blood glucose pendulum swinging from low to high.
- Use unit size low glucose treatment kits (15 grams of carbohydrate), juice boxes, and boxes of raisins.
- Keep glucose kits handy on a bedside table, in a purse, pockets, work desk drawer, golf bag, gym bag, glove compartment. You won't be tempted to run to the cupboard or refrigerator.
- Use glucose tablets for treatments (they don't taste all that great and may actually work a little fast because they are "already glucose" and your body doesn't have to convert them to glucose before they can be used for energy).
- When you have low blood glucose, test, treat, and then repeat the process in 15 minutes. Tell yourself that no matter how much you eat, it takes 15 minutes before your blood glucose will rise. This may or may not work.
- Follow the Rule of 15.
- If you do over-treat low blood glucose, don't beat yourself up mentally, remember you are only human.
Your thoughts?
Have a good week,

This all-in-one mixer, blender, juicer, chopper and processor is time-saving and efficient because of its unique, bullet-shaped design that automatically circulates food back into the Cyclonic Cutting Zone region with so much force and speed that it can do virtually any kitchen job in 10 seconds or less.
With the easy-to-use Magic Bullet, you can make delicious party dips like salsa, guacamole and bean dip, refreshing frozen margaritas and pina coladas, a variety of tantalizing pasta sauces, decadent desserts such as creamy chocolate mousse or frosty milkshakes and more--all with virtually no effort nor clean-up.

Willie Bloomquist likes makeup of 2013 Arizona Diamondbacks
One year ago, the Arizona Diamondbacks were a favorite to represent the National League in the World Series.
One year ago, the Arizona Diamondbacks were led on the field by MVP candidate Justin Upton, who was supported by one of the deepest lineups and farm systems in baseball.
And one year ago, the experts said the Arizona Diamondbacks had a star in manager Kirk Gibson and general manager Kevin Towers could do no wrong.
What a difference a year makes.
Now the D-backs are projected to finish behind both the defending World Series champion San Francisco Giants as well as the free-spending Los Angeles Dodgers, Justin Upton is in Atlanta and people are starting to question whether or not "Gibby Ball", which has seemed to guide the franchise's offseason, is the right way to go.
Count D-backs infielder Willie Bloomquist among those who not only like the idea, but are up to the challenge of proving its validity. The 35-year-old said he's "thrilled" with the moves the team made in the offseason and is excited for the season that's to come.
"I love it because there's things the statistics can't measure," Bloomquist told Arizona Sports 620's Doug and Wolf Tuesday. "If statistics were the only thing that mattered in baseball I would have been done playing a long time ago."
Bloomquist is entering his third season with the D-backs. He hit .302 with no home runs, 23 RBI and 7 stolen bases last season, which was cut short due to a back injury. He figures to play more of a reserve role this year, but will likely still see regular at bats.
"I'm obviously a guy that loves the 'old school' type of playing, and the proof's in the pudding," he added. "Look at the San Francisco Giants. They didn't have any guys that were off the charts in their numbers offensively, but they had guys step up at the right time and play together at the right time.
"You can't tell me in watching the postseason last year those guys weren't having fun."
At the same time, sports are generally fun when you're winning, which the Giants did a lot of last season.
But Bloomquist's point, which seems to be the same as the organization is trying to prove, is that there is more to winning baseball than stats or things that can be measured in a box score.
"I think chemistry and team camaraderie and clubhouse chemistry is a huge thing, and with the guys that we have this year that we brought in, we have great clubhouse guys and guys that love to play the game and love to play it the right way."

How rad does that gilly - i mean 'ghillie' - suit look?!
Last edited by Azimuth; 14-08-2007 at 02:59 PM.
If you liked the pic of the Ghillie suit, you must check the new COD 4 movie clip called "Ghillie in the Mist". I really cant wait for this.
Looks way cool!!
The Engine has been built from the Ground up it is Infinity Wards own engine and it Rocks wait till you see the physics in action.
well cod2 used the q3 enine but its been heavely moded, that i know for a fact. mite be the same for cod 4 (if i can take a look at the files and the game il know for sure)
How about taking a look at the earlier posts and you'll know for sure. Proprietary - their own, as well as being a different engine.
Some of the chaps over at the Xbox360 forum have already hosted a few beta games over the past week i think. Seems like its a great game from their side.

Solberg is still chasing his first win in the FIA World Rally Championship with the factory Ford team but has high hopes starting the Strasbourg-based contest today.
"We had a good set-up in Germany and we improved a little bit more in the last test, which has made the car easier to drive," said the Norwegian, the 2003 world champion. "It's just the small things but when you slide the car it has better control and this gives you a better feeling and more confidence."
He continued: "I was leading last year before I had a puncture so you should never say never. Everybody says it's Sebastien Loeb's rally and he will take it but I will try. If you don't try you have nothing to do in the championship."
Solberg is part of a Ford team buoyed by Jari-Matti Latvala's victory on the last round in Great Britain. Squad boss Malcolm Wilson said: "It was a big boost the GB win. Because of the bad luck we've had this season I was expecting something to go wrong but it was a class act."

Magnet Hospital Award
When Aspirus Wausau Hospital became the first Magnet hospital in the region on February 14, 2005, and then earned Magnet re-certification in 2009, it received the gold standard for patient care and one of the highest honors a hospital can receive.
Magnet application involves a comprehensive written application, highlighting the hospital's outstanding quality of care, teamwork, patient outcomes, investment in staff development, progressive leadership, and research initiatives. This is followed by a site visit spanning several days, during which representatives of the American Nurses Credentialing Center personally inspect the organization.
Much like gold-medal athletes, who know all eyes are on them, Aspirus staff, physicians, and volunteers feel that same sense of expectation, from those outside of the hospital, colleagues within, and from within each individual. Aspirus' Magnet Award is not carried like a trophy, but rather worn as an indelible brand, a reminder of our promise to deliver excellent, compassionate care.
Every member of the Aspirus Wausau Hospital family contributes to this culture of excellence and has reason to be proud to be a part of one the best hospitals in the nation. The real winners though are our patients, who every day receive the best care and enjoy outstanding clinical outcomes in the region's best hospital.
For more information about Magnet Certification, please visit the ANCC Web site.

Scania Value Quarter 3 2013
The climatic wind tunnel is the focus of the latest edition of Scania Value. It is the result of Scania's investment in innovation. Trucks and buses are tested here in all possible climates, from arctic storms to hot desert winds.
Scania Interim Report January–September 2013
Scania's earnings for the first nine months of 2013 fell to SEK 5,939 m. Higher vehicle volume and better capacity utilisation had a positive effect. The stronger krona had a negative impact and earnings were also pulled down by a competitive pricing environment.

This upper body move works your shoulders and your upper back.
-Serving Trays: Grab a pair of light dumbbells and stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Bend your elbows and hold the weights palms up, like you're carrying a tray. Now, keeping your shoulders down, bring your elbows forward and rotate your arms to the side until your thumbs point to the wall behind you. Repeat for 10 reps. Be sure to keep your upper arms close to your sides. Your abs should be engaged and your chest lifted. For the 2nd set of Serving Trays, step up the difficulty level by balancing on your left leg for 5 reps. Remember to engage your abs, keep your chest lifted, and your shoulders down. Then switch legs and balance on your right leg for 5 reps. For the 3rd set of Serving Trays, stand on a thin, folded yoga mat or bath towel, balancing on your left leg for 5 reps. This extra balancing challenge increases the difficulty level yet again. Switch to your right leg for the final 5 reps. Be sure to keep your abs engaged, your chest lifted, and your shoulders down. This move works your shoulders and your upper back.

To the Editor: The article following the headline stating that Friends were "axing" youth programs does not provide details of the proposal presented, nor any the statistics regarding participation in or costs of operation over recent years.
While there are no doubt reasons to seek and discuss other ways to address the issues, I am disappointed that much of the debate has focused on personal attacks on Marta Howell, who has added immeasurably to the life of our community. The nearly full-house this season at the Film Forum panels on fracking, educational reform, the financial meltdown, and, this week, on Islam indicate her responsiveness to community interests.
The equally large audiences for the Metropolitan Opera performances would not be possible had she not found creative ways to raise funds to replace the sound and projection equipment in the Community Center. That equipment is also used by many island organizations serving both children and adults. She has fostered a friendly customer service attitude in the Center offices and has worked with the other island organizations' leaders in seeking ways to make the work of all more effective and efficient.
Their joint effort in developing and implementing the on-line community calendar, bocagrandehappenings.org, was funded by Friends and managed by their executive director. Friends has expanded its programs and services and now offers a variety of free and fee-based programs, all of which entail administrative management, marketing, and oversight.
Among these are Life Long Learning, Boca Grande Sleuths, Literature Forum, Film Forum, lectures by specialists such as Harm deBlij and Andrew Fone, first-run movies three times a week during season, concerts and community picnics, to name just a few. None of these programs and activities would exist were it not for the dedication of a volunteer, unpaid board of directors governed by the legal and ethical standards for non-profit organizations. Those unfamiliar with nonprofit structure may not know that they are held to strict standards.
Nonprofits with annual income over a specified amount, which Friends meets, must file a tax return that is available on-line, as well as produce an annual report containing an audited financial statement, available to all who wish to review it. There are no fees for obtaining this information. In nonprofit organizations the board makes all policy decisions and the executive director is charged with implementing them. Boards usually require their executive directors regularly to review all programs and services and provide the board with detailed information about them.
This is one way in which boards carry out their responsibility to their donors, insuring them that their dollars are being used in the ways that best serve the mission of the organization. With over thirty years of experience in the nonprofit world, as an executive director, board member, and a board governance consultant, as well as extensive service as a teacher and school administrator, I understand how difficult it is to make hard, and often unpopular choices.
I also know that when people with opposing views sit down together and focus on fact-finding and problem-solving rather than on fanning the flames of anger, there can be win-win solutions. In the interest of full disclosure, I was the interim executive director of Friends and their search consultant in the spring of 2010, during which time over forty highly qualified professionals applied for the executive director position.
Following intensive interviews and discussions with prior employers, employees, and colleagues, Marta Howell was the unanimous first choice of the members of the search committee and the board of directors. The board developed a clear set of objectives for this position, including the requirement that whoever was selected for the position would regularly review and report to the Board on the status, cost, and effectiveness of all its programs and services.

Habitat for Strays, Inc
January 2012 Issue:
Happy New Year To All!
2011 ended on a mixed note for Habitat For Strays. On December 17, we lost Rudy, an 8 yr. old black & white feral. It may be a coincidence, but the day after applying a topical flea treatment Rudy went blind. Two days later his vision in his right eye began to return, Two days after that he unexpectedly passed away.
On December 28, we lost 14yr. old Nancy, In May, we rescued Nancy along with 6 others after they were abandoned in a rental home for 2 weeks. The owner was placed in a nursing home but no one cared enough to remove the cats. The homeowner notified H.F.S. and we took in the starving, frightened felines. Nancy was sick but recovered after a couple of weeks. However she probably couldn't adjust to the new lifestyle. At the end, Nancy was not alone. We were there petting her when she passed away and began a new journey.
On a brighter note, we have 2 new additions to our Feline Family-1 1/2 year old grey tabby sisters, Precious and Angel. Their owner had surgery and was unable to care for her cats any longer since the person with whom she is living is allergic. Therefore, these sweet cats needed a new home and we were glad to provide one.
With over 100 cats to care for every day we are in need of a lot of financial support from kind-hearted people who believe all pets deserve a home for life. With your help we will be able to say yes the next time the phone rings for a feline in need.
All The Best,
Richard Dineen, President

The Broken Star
Original Release Date: Apr 28, 1956
A deputy marshal is ordered to investigate the killing of a Mexican ranch hand by a fellow deputy, who claims self-defense.
Using turn of the century forensic science and dogged determination, the deputy breaks down his partner's alibi and discovers that the lawman had killed the rancher for eight thousand dollars in gold that had been hidden in the victim's home.
Now he must arrest his friend before the victim's gunslinging friends can kill him before he's tried for the crime.

Coast Guard:
Key Management and Budget Challenges for Fiscal Year 2005 and Beyond
GAO-04-636T, Apr 7, 2004
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Accessible Text:
(415) 904-2200
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
As the lead federal agency for maritime homeland security within the Department of Homeland Security, the Coast Guard is facing extraordinary, heightened responsibilities to protect America's ports, waterways, and waterside facilities from terrorist attacks. At the same time, the Coast Guard remains responsible for many other programs important to the nation's interests, such as conducting search and rescue and protecting important fishing grounds. Its expanded responsibilities come at a time when budget resources are increasingly constrained, making prioritization among competing agencies and programs an even more critical factor in congressional decision-making. This testimony specifically addresses (1) the most recent trends in both resource usage and performance results for the Coast Guard's homeland security and non-homeland security programs; (2) challenges the agency faces as it proceeds with its Deepwater acquisition program to replace or modernize its key legacy cutters and aircraft; and (3) an overview of the President's fiscal year 2005 budget request for the Coast Guard, focusing on several areas of particular congressional interest.
Resource usage for Coast Guard assets--its cutters, boats, and aircraft-- was up almost 40 percent from the pre-September 11th baseline. Homeland security programs, such as the ports, waterways, and coastal security program, have been more likely to see increases in usage, while nonhomeland security programs, such as living marine resources, remain below pre-September 11th levels. Although resource usage changed substantially for many of these programs, performance results generally improved or remained largely the same. The stable or improved performance results were attributed mainly to operational efficiencies (e.g., improved technology, improved tactics, stronger partnerships, and improved intelligence). However, the Coast Guard has limited data and no systematic approach to explain or account for the effects of these factors. Without such an approach and supporting data to link its resources and performance results, the agency may be missing further opportunities to increase productivity and efficiency to ensure best use of its funds. Some of the Coast Guard's legacy Deepwater cutters, patrol boats, and aircraft are increasingly unreliable and costly to maintain, and timely and effective implementation of the agency's ongoing Deepwater acquisition program to modernize these assets is crucial in order to reverse this trend. However, the Coast Guard faces serious challenges to keep the Deepwater program on schedule and within planned budget estimates. We estimate that to return the program to its original 20-year completion schedule will cost about $2.2 billion more than the Coast Guard estimated when the program was implemented in 2002. Also, available program funding, which has been less than the Coast Guard planned, may have to be used, in part, to address critical maintenance needs of the legacy assets, diverting funds otherwise intended for future Deepwater replacements and upgrades. Moreover, recent GAO work raised serious concerns about the management and oversight of the program, including the quality of the Coast Guard's assessment of the program contractor's performance and the uncertainty as to whether the Coast Guard would be able to effectively control costs. The President's fiscal year 2005 budget request of about $7.5 billion for the Coast Guard represents about an 8 percent increase over last year. It includes $5.2 billion in operating expenses and $943 million for its capital acquisition budget. Most of the new initiatives outlined in its operating expense budget are targeted for homeland security initiatives, including $102 million for implementation of the Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002. Aside from the new initiatives, two other efforts in the budget request may require further attention. The Coast Guard's multi-mission stations are still experiencing a heavy workload for station personnel because of increased homeland security responsibilities. Also, the Coast Guard's Rescue 21 program, which will replace the Coast Guard's current antiquated communication system, faces possible delays because of software system development problems.

IRON MOUNTAIN -- It's never too early to begin back to school shopping for moms like Jamie Casper. With three kids, it is seemingly a neverending process. But the majority of her shopping is done at a place you might not suspect.
"I come to the thrift stores because it's less expensive," said Casper. "With three growing children who are always changing sizes, it's just economically a better choice."
Casper, like many money conscious families, has turned to secondhand stores like Goodwill and Saint Vincent De Paul for the majority of their clothes shopping.
But shopping smart for back to school clothes doesn't mean you have to sacrifice quality. Some of the clothing still has its original tags.
Even though Saint Vincent De Paul operates primarily on donations, the store insists they only stock quality clothing.
"We would not put anything out that's ripped or has holes," said Assistant Manager for the Iron Mountain Branch, Debra Cheney. "So anything that you see on our racks in our store is in good condition."
Plus with some clothing being sold for as low as one dollar, it's hard to beat the price.
"At some of the stores you find good deals, but the problem is those deals are only every once in a while. At the thrift store, it's every time you come here," Casper said. "Everything I'm wearing today is from the thrift store and probably everything [my kids are] wearing today."
Casper enjoys shopping at thrift stores, and with the rough economy, she doesn't see that changing anytime soon.

xsspeed's Corollas: EE80->Beams3s & NZGT Liftback
Posted 17 September 2009 - 06:13 PM
This may or may not be to most people's tastes but thought I would slam it up here for those that are interested.
So car is a 1986 Toyota Corolla Liftback (5 door). Featuring 2e 1300cc econoplant. Originally purchased new by my parents in '86, it became mine, then I gave it to my sister, but when I wanted a car to fool around with I took it back.
So high school saw many trips to pick-a-part without much of a clue to pick up odds and ends that were broken.
When I got it back form my sister she had destroyed the clutch (that was pretty much shagged from skids anyway) so I figured I would change the clutch and use it as a cheap daily - my other car is a falcon wagon.
Decided to have a look for surface rust etc while doing the clutch and found that after being rear ended three times and just tugged back into place that the rust had set in well. So it will need more of a fix.
Not sure if I will attack this myself or pay someone as it looks beyond my limited panelwork and welding capabilities.
So instead of just changing the clutch I decided I would get into doing it up, so have been saving and buying parts as I go, including 3 donor cars.
First things first, the doors were shagged so I purchased another liftback and swapped the doors and trim etc over, plus added the consoles that mine was missing (low spec model).
Then a damaged fxgt came up that had a smallport transplanted for cheap so I snapped that up and came up with the idea of shifting the drivers side engine mount forward 50mm and drop in the smallport. This fxgt was auto though so it was going to mean getting the manual conversion elsewhere.
Also shocks on this are nearnew so will be swapping them over, they also have king's superlows on them which is a bit of a fail but should at least get it slammed.
Then being an idiot I thought I would collect some 20V Silvertop parts and engines and use them. Of course that was an epic fail as I soon realised I needed more bits and bobs to actually make it work. Luckily I got the engines cheap and parted them out for a profit.
Then an AE111 BZG came up on trademe cheap (deregd) so I snapped that up and now will use the 4age Blacktop. Originally (when I was still dreaming) I had planned to turbo the blacktop but now I have pretty much decided against it, as the car only weighs ~950kg a N/A thats tweaked a bit should be more than enough for shenanigans.
The only thing I need now is an lsd (and some welding and fabrication skills) and its a matter of swapping in all the EFi bits and pieces and a shitload of wiring.
Of course I have spent more time buying less than necessary bits for it and less time actually working on it. Mainly because I have been stripping parts off the donor cars and making my money back on them, and raise funds to buy goodies.
Anyway pics at last for those who care.
2e in all its glory

Watanabe '8-hole' that my mrs outbid FLWLES on
Details sent through to me from Watanabe USA - I was trying to find out what they were
SSR Type X wheels I bought - they weight 3.8kg apparently without tyres.
FOHA front lip as fitted to some of the prefacelift NZ corolla GT's.
Gots some rear louvres just to see if they suit it or not
No decent photos of the actual car yet as its still in the garage on jacks and got no room to get a decent shot.
So yeah thats it so far, haven;t got as much done on it as I had hoped this year as I have dislocated my shoulder three times and my collarbone where it connects to the sternum, so haven't been able to get into it. Got surgery in a few weeks too so won't be moving very fast.
Really want to get this done so that I can start working on my premier and land rover.
I have an image in my head to work towards in terms of exterior styling etc, should be quite tasteful, will see how it pans out.

New wheels on car
Old wheels
Shit photos but you should be able to see what I mean, are there any issues with this? Theres about 5mm clear space around the centric ring.

Posted 20 September 2009 - 05:52 PM
Reason I ask is becaus ethese wheels turned out to be 42p, and the inner lip runs pretty close to the strut (~5mm). Would probably be sweet with semi-stretched tires but not sure how keen I am for this. So was thinking as the car will be getting a cert anyway I may just just run 15-20mm spacers to push them out a bit more. Only issue then is fouling tyres on guards etc which would either mean smaller spacers, stretched tyres or flares/lipped guards.
Posted 23 September 2009 - 08:39 PM
got one of these for a work car its pretty tidy
i reckon theyre better looking than the fxgt
kinda like a 4door frontwheeldrive ae86

A while back 10speed was offering up a tool chest for free so I took him up on it. And tonight I just about finished restoring it, still has dings here and there that I couldn't get out out but I reckon it scrubbed up quite well - even though its just going to get filled with filthy tools.
Colours are a satin chocolate (quite glossy for a satin) and satin Beige (finish is quite matt compared to chocolate).
Pics for your viewing pleasure: (flash buggers it up a bit though)
Should get some work done on the car tomorrow - plus chopping up my two spare shells to go to the scrappies.

Going in for shoulder reconstruction on friday...the 13th!! so will be tucking this away for most of summer I'd say.
Weighing up option of getting 'TRD spec' 2e motor, pricey investment but probably work out cheaper in the long run over blacktop conversion. Has a claimed 160hp @ 9000rpm - will remain to be seen.
So I have motivation to get strength back I'll post Simon's awesome photoshops here.
Pics are of truenotch's wheels, hopeing to acquire some of the 4x100 +15 persuasion immenently.

Purchasing 3s gearbox from Spence come payday, and will be acquiring a beams 3s following this.
From what little info I have been able to drag up, I should be able to use the current mounts for the 2e motor, and only need to change the mount next to the battery (gearbox mount). If anyone has any more info it would be greatly appreciated, but as I imagine very few have fucked around with an ee80 before info is pretty scarce.
Anyway, I know the motor and box will get in there with some twittering about, but I have two main issues.
1. Driveshafts. These will end up being shorter than either ae82 (corolla) or st202 (celica) shafts. What are my options for shortening factory shafts? Or do I need something made up from scratch?
If using factory shafts - can I retain the 4 stud hubs (does the spline match?) Reusing the hubs & carrier will allow me to retain the ae82 steering.
2. Brakes - I will be using Ae111 BZG brakes, I assume as many slap a churbro on there 4age without worrying much about brakes that these will still do the trick? Or should I be looking at even larger units?
Also if anyone has some ae92/ae101/ae111 coilovers going, please get in touch…Cheers

1200 bucks and hot wires? Roberts your father's brother
Posted 25 August 2010 - 05:39 PM
If your hubs are the same spline as AW11 rears then the SW20 axles that that gearbox originally had will fit...
If the mounts are similar to AW11 then you should be able to find a combination of factory parts that will work for the gearbox side of the mount. I was going to make new front/rear gearbox mounts and a new cam belt cover engine mount (The one that mounts by the drivers side strut).
As for brakes, I'd look into doing an SW20 or ST185 twinpot upgrade on the front and get a bigger master cylinder.
Good luck man! It would be great to see this happen.
Posted 25 August 2010 - 05:45 PM
Fingers crossed it will.jesus what a weapon this things going to be
Have sourced some mounts off a guy (Sambo on here iirc, AE86less on TS), and a larger capacity radiator that suits ae82 mounts, and hose to suit 3s inlet/outlets.
Also managed to source most of the whiteline handling pack for ae82's, so now have adjustable rear swaybar, Front Caster Adjustable kit - control arm, Trailing Arm Bush Kit, Front Swaybar Mount Bush Kit (waiting on final bits)
What sort of price should I expect to pay for a Beams 3s, with everything bar gearbox. There is one on TM for $800 which is about the cheapest I have seen them.
Posted 25 August 2010 - 05:48 PM
Expect to pay anything from $800 and up to maybe $1500 for a good one.... You could also do an Altezza dual beams and I'll trade sumps with you .
Posted 25 August 2010 - 05:57 PM
You bought the one thats on TM now? Auction is still up? Thought you bought one from down your ways.

Any mount point differences for the altezza beams?

Think yours was the $750 one from a caldina Markku?
I remember seeing that and almost buying it a month or two back.
Spenc, do you have any other kit lying around you are thinking of offloading?

PlayStation 4 review: The next generation is here. Now wait.
November 15. That's the day Sony unleashes the PlayStation 4, the long-awaited follow up to the company's PlayStation 3, a machine that debuted all the way back in 2006. The road leading up to launch has been tedious and bloodied by an intense rivalry with Microsoft's Xbox One, due exactly one week later.
Both new consoles arrive with their own marketing spin designed to claim the gaming throne: at $400, the PS4 is the "affordable" next-gen machine, whereas the $500 Xbox One promises an ambitious, always-on integration with live TV that aims to subsume your cable box.… Read more

Hello, Seagate community. I've got a problem on my hands, please help:
Custom-built laptop
i2720 2.3ghz Quad Core Processor
GT555M 2gb Video Card
Windows 7 x64 Ultimate
I am using the Momentus 750gb HDD model # st9750420as. I take better care of the laptop than my car, yet to my surprise the other day something strange happened when I went to boot up. The laptop is stuck at my BIOS screen and fails to even RECOGNIZE the HDD as being plugged in. It makes a strange and very quiet sound every 2 or so seconds (from HDD, not the speakers). I've taken a hard look at everything and come to the conclusion my logic board has fried/become damaged somehow, as one of the connectors on the board seems dark-colored instead of shiny like it's counterparts (leads one to believe it's no longer conductive).
I have been looking ALL over the internet for a logic board for this specific Seagate product, to no avail.. I can't find it anywhere! Will Seagate sell me the logic board separate or give me a third party vendor who can help me? I don't want to pay another 150$ just for a new HDD, especially since I'd REALLY like to recover the data on my drive too.
Also, as a side note I've been using this laptop for ~6 months or so. And the product wasn't OEM so I should be under warranty, correct? -or how can I check?
Thanks for any help! I'm trying to get this all done asap, this is my school laptop and I need it fixed yesterday! :,(
I looked up that the board model is ---100619769 Rev. A--- so, simply, I ask does Seagate have the capabilites of selling me that part individually? If not, can someone, anyone, supply me with a vendor that Does sell these? I mean it's kind of sad the thing fried after ~6 months, and I'm happy it's not the actual HDD, but instead this "PCB" board seems hard to locate..
Solved! Go to Solution.
Can an admin or mod please help me with an answer?
This problem is quite frustrating.
I am neither a mod or in any way, shape, or form affiliated with Seagate.
A few off the cuff observations.
In all my years, I have never seen a hard drive electronics board VISIBLY fry unless something real untoward is done to it --- like over voltage / etc.
The industry's longstanding policy is data on the drive is not their problem --- the customer is responsible for regular backups and restore of data --- and data loss is not warranted or guaranteed in any way, shape, or form.
As for supply of spare parts...
First, a replacemenbt board may or may not work.
There are specialized firms who do drive repair and charge correspondingly sophisticated prices for their work.
Some of them stock parts, and have clean room and other facilities that if you paid enough, can recover just about anything from anywhere short of a total destruction of the platters.
But you pay through the nose for that work.
If you are unwilling to spend $150 for a new drive (possibly the only easy way to get a spare that MAY or MAY NOT work), you are outta luck.
01-23-2012 10:19 AM - edited 01-23-2012 10:20 AM
Thanks for responding but what you said is nothing near true in reference to my board problem.
These types of boards don't fry in entirety, no, but the 'pin connectors' did fry on the board. It's quite common with older boards, I haven't had it happen to many new boards but I'm used to desktops. I would assume laptops break down faster, but 6 months is kind of ridiculous imo.
I found a few sites like hddzone and other PCB suppliers. But no one carries the Momentus boards.
And I'm very good with computers, so yes this is definitely a PCB/logic board problem as I can SEE the darkened connector's which is abnormal
01-23-2012 12:22 PM - edited 01-23-2012 12:23 PM
If it is as you say, it is a warranty issue as they are warranted for 5 years.
Right you are, thank you, I (somehow) did not even notice the warranty checker on the side of the page haha
Well I called up support, spoke with a very helpful rep at the warranty department, and the replacement hdd should ship tomorrow with a return package for me to send the old drive.
I can handle the storage transfer and DoD wipe it myself, no need to risk waste paying a bad employee $800 to copy and steal my personal information from the drive
Thanks again!
Glad you found a solution....
Just don't expect the replacement drive board to necessarily work with your drive and don't be disappointed if it doesn't work.
AFAIK, Seagate have pretty good procedures in place to ensure that there is no use and abuse of customer data on returned drives.
Oh... in all the time I dealt with Seagate, they have always honored their warranties.
From their very beginning...
fzabkar wrote:
It sounds to me like your drive may have a stiction fault (heads stuck to platters) rather than a PCB fault. In any case, each PCB stores unique, drive specific information in a serial flash memory chip, so a straight board swap won't work.
BTW, the oxidisation that you have observed is typical for current model WD and Seagate drives. It appears to be a consequence of materials changes mandated by RoHS.
Oxydation from the elimination of lead under RoHS and its associated faults I am familiar with --- and I don't regard that as burn marks.
Without high res photos, it is really hard to tell which is which.
Concur with you re board stored info... it is possible for a top notch drive repair shop to get around that by reading the data and then doing what it takes to replace the board and use the same data.
Just thinking of all this is causing tin whiskers to grow on me!
So by what you're saying: Hypothetically, if the HDD's used the exact same PCB board model 100619769 Rev. A, and I did a board swap between the two, there's a 100% chance the PCB will not read the HDD correctly. True?
If so, that's unfortunate.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Another injury has suddenly sidelined Dallas Mavericks superstar forward Dirk Nowitzki.
Less than an hour before Thursday's game against Golden State, the Mavs announced that Nowitzki wasn't going to play against the Warriors because of a strained right adductor. Also, the Mavs, who play at Phoenix at 8 tonight, did not give a timetable on when they expect Nowitzki to play again.It is not known when Nowitzki's injury occurred, especially because after Thursday morning's shoot-around he said he had made a lot of progress following the arthroscopic right knee surgery he underwent on Oct. 19.Elton Brand started at power forward in Nowitzki's place against the Warriors.But it's clear the Mavs will need effort from a lot of players in order to make up for Nowitzki's absence.Nowitzki missed the first 27 games of the season while recovering from knee surgery and wasn't completely 100 percent before this latest injury occurred. It is not known if the two injuries are related.But the Mavs' chances of reaching the playoffs for the 13th straight season will be slim if Nowitzki is out for an extended period of time."Everybody's got to step up because everybody knows that Dirk is a big part of our team, so when he's not playing you can feel the difference," point guard Rodrigue Beaubois said. "So we've just got to make sure we all bring everything we've got and play together."Nowitzki is the only 7-footer on the Mavs' roster besides Chris Kaman. But neither played against the Warriors, because Kaman flew home after Thursday's shoot-around and is out indefinitely after suffering a concussion in Monday's practice.That leaves Brandan Wright and James -- at 6-10 each -- as the tallest players on the Mavs' active roster."We're still an inch or two off, but I think we can get the job done," James said of he and Wright. "Me and B-Wright can both jump a little bit higher than both of those guys, so I think it kind of makes up for that inch."In 18 games since his knee surgery, Nowitzki is averaging 14.8 points and 5.5 rebounds in 29.9 minutes per game."We want him to play with us, but if he can't that really means he's hurt because he's a warrior," Beaubois said. "We want him to play with us, but if he can't then we'll wait until he gets healthy."Assists are trendingCoach Rick Carlisle likes the way his team has improved in its ability to create assists."It's been trending really the entire year, particularly in the last two or three weeks," Carlisle said. "We've got to continue with that and we've got to shore up some other areas."The Mavs collected 31 assists in Tuesday's 106-104 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers and are 12th in the NBA with 22.5 assists per game. Carlisle credits the new players getting accustomed to one another with the progress the Mavs have made in that department."I just think that as the year has gone on I've newer guys have gotten more integrated in what we're doing, the culture of trusting the pass," Carlisle said. "It's been a good progression."Questionable call hands Mavericks another road loss

Making money on medical supplies seems to be a growing trend. More and more signs are popping up across Kern County offering cash for diabetes testing strips. But, is it legal to buy and sell them? More importantly, is it safe?
There's no question, these strips are expensive, running anywhere from just under a dollar to $2 per strip. So, if you can get them for half that or sell what you aren't using for cash, people are jumping.
But, local pharmacists say be warned.
Driving on North Chester, there's a sign. Surfing through the internet, there are ads. All of them offer cash to buy unused diabetic test strips. Patrick Leroy is a pharmacist at Komoto Medical Pharmacy.
"I would not recommend it," said Leroy.
Leroy says since test strips can be bought over the counter, the private exchange is legal. But, diabetics need a prescription to get their supplies paid for. Selling their supplies would get them money they didn't spend.
"But, it's going to cost the government money. It's going to cost the payer the insurance. It's going to cost somebody money and those are expensive to that payer source," explained Leroy.
17 News tried calling the local number listed on the street sign. The woman who answered said she was in a meeting. We tried calling again and left a message, but didn't hear back.
We then tried calling the ad we found on Bakersfield's Craigslist. The woman who placed it is Susan Livingstone.
"They are intended to give people, who have lost their insurance or low-income, give them an opportunity to purchase their test strips at a discount," explained Livingstone.
Livingstone, who has no connection with the medical field, buys and sells from her home in the Silicon Valley, doing business now with people in 34 states.
"Most of the people that sell their test strips, it's just a one-time thing because someone passed away in their family or often, probably, is that their doctor changed them to a different brand of test strip.
Livingstone says she only purchases strips that have at least six months before expiring, are unopened, and in good condition.
But, Leroy still considers it too risky and suggests going to someone reputable when health is at stake.
"You know if it's stored in a warehouse, it's 110-120 degrees, that actual test strip can break down sooner," said Leroy.
Livingstone says she buys the strips for as little as $3 to as much as $26 a box and donates the ones she can't sell to free clinics or shelters.
But, Leroy says testing is all about accuracy, and there's no guarantee on that when buying or selling from or to a third party.

Aurora-Sim is the next generation of the OpenSimulator Project. It allows you to run a large scale operation and extend it as needed, while still having many features available for your use. The architecture is designed to be as flexible as possible so that third parties can create modules by plugging into the modular design. It is cross-platform compatible by using the .NET framework and Mono. Most importantly, it is a community based project consisting of individuals with a variety of talents (technical and non-technical) and has been developed with an emphasis on security, speed, and performance.

TXR is a new data munging language. TXR's special pattern language provides template-based matching of entire documents or large sections of documents. It also contains a language for functional and imperative programming. It is written in C and takes the form of a utility that is portable to Unix-like platforms and Windows.
NXWidgets is a graphical user interface package for the NuttX RTOS. It integrates seamlessly with the NuttX NX graphics subsystem in order to provide graphic objects, or "widgets". It is written entirely in C++ using only selected "embedded friendly" C++ constructs which are fully supported under NuttX. No additional C++ support libraries are required. It is tailored for use with MCUs in embedded applications. It is ideally suited for the mid-to-upper range of most MCU families. It will work on high-end frame buffer devices as well as on LCDs connected via serial or parallel ports to a small MCU. It will accept position and selection inputs from a mouse or a touchscreen. It will also support character input from a keyboard such as a USB keyboard. It supports a special widget called CKeypad which provides keyboard input via an on-screen keypad which can be operated via a mouse or touchscreen inputs. Some of the graphic objects supported by NXWidgets include labels, buttons, text boxes, button arrays, check boxes, cycle buttons, images, sliders, scrollable list boxes, and progress bars.
Pyrseas provides a framework and utilities to upgrade and maintain a relational database. It currently includes the dbtoyaml utility to create a YAML description of a PostgreSQL database's tables, and the yamltodb utility to generate SQL statements to modify a database to match an input YAML specification. It also aims to develop data administration tools to supplement an agile database development process.
The klish is a framework for implementing Cisco-like command-line interfaces on Unix systems. It is configurable through XML files. "Klish" stands for "Kommand Line Interface SHell". The klish is a fork of clish-0.7.3. The original clish was developed by Graeme McKerrell. The klish adds some new features, but is compatible (as much as possible) with clish's XML configuration files.
Python bsddb3 is a Python module that provides a nearly complete wrapping of the Oracle/Sleepycat C API for the database environment, database, cursor, sequence, and transaction objects, and each of these is exposed as a Python type in the bsddb3.db module. The database objects can use various access methods: btree, hash, recno, and queue. It has complete support for Berkeley DB distributed transactions, and complete support for the Berkeley DB Replication Manager and base replication API. The goal is to mirror most of the real Berkeley DB API.
