Hi Maggie! What and why Maggie? You are right about being careful...I drive with adrenaline pumping through my body a lot of the time. I am really considering taking the anti religious stickers off because I am getting too old to kick someone's ass anymore...but I would probably find a way to fuck them up!

Located roughly 40 miles southwest of Cincinnati, Kentucky Speedway is a 1.5- mile oval with 14 degrees of banking in all of its turns, as well as 8 degrees of banking on both the frontstretch and backstretch. The length of the frontstretch is 1,662 feet, and the backstretch measures 1,600 feet.
There have been 14 Nationwide races held at Kentucky. The series has competed at this racetrack each year since 2001. A second date was added there, starting with the 2012 season.
Joey Logano holds the record for most Nationwide victories at Kentucky with three. Logano, whose wins there came consecutively from 2008-10, is not entered in this weekend's race since the Sprint Cup Series is competing at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
Kevin Harvick won the inaugural Nationwide race at Kentucky, the Outback Steakhouse 300, on June 16, 2001.
Austin Dillon won both Nationwide races at Kentucky in 2012.
Richard Childress and Joe Gibbs share the record for most car owner wins in Nationwide races at Kentucky with three each.
Six of the 14 previous Nationwide races at Kentucky have been won from the pole position. In fact, five of the last seven events there have been won from the top starting spot.
The furthest back a driver has started and won a Nationwide event at Kentucky is 19th, accomplished by Brad Keselowski in June.
The closest margin of victory in a Nationwide race at Kentucky occurred on June 16, 2002 when Todd Bodine beat Greg Biffle to the finish line by just 0.036 seconds.
In June 2012, Dillon led 192 of 200 laps and crossed the finish line 9.8 seconds ahead of his closest competitor, Kurt Busch, to claim his first win in the series at Kentucky.
Dillon is one of four drivers who scored their first career Nationwide wins at Kentucky. The others are: David Gilliland (2006), Stephen Leicht (2007) and Logano (2008).
The next race is the Sept. 28 5-Hour Energy 200 at Dover International Speedway. Joey Logano won last year's event there.

MyEclipse: Converting Java Projects To Maven

Converting Java Projects To Maven
I just installed MyEclipse 10.1. I have 5 Java projects that need to be converted to Maven. But I don't see any options for doing so. I'm a novice when it comes to Maven. I have tried creating a Java Maven project, thinking I could create the project from scratch, but the new project does not appear to have Java capabilities. What is the best approach? How should I convert them?
- Mar 28, 2012 - 02:20 PM
Post subject:
I forgot to mention that I have the Pro edition of MyEclipse. As far as I can tell, Maven is enabled.
- Jun 04, 2012 - 09:46 PM
Post subject:
Hi, I'm interested to converting existing projects to Maven, too. Spent some time with several tries, not very sucsessfull. Maven is enabled, I can create new project with Maven support, but not to convert any old. Is there a way to "mavenize" an existing Java project?
- Jun 04, 2012 - 09:52 PM
Post subject:
It took me a while to find the option, but here it is:
From Project explorer window, right click on project to convert > Configure > Convert to Maven Project
- Jun 04, 2012 - 11:10 PM
Post subject:
Just for others - "WTP deprecated" must be enabled in Properties->General->Capabilities->Advanced->MyEclipse Standard Tools.
Thanks a lot, this looks good.

Glad that you got it working.

Beginning Monday, Jan. 7, service dates for the town's collection of curbside yard waste and household garbage will change.
The town's Public Works Department will change the collection day of curbside yard waste from Wednesdays to Mondays. Also, Monday's household garbage collection will be picked up on Wednesdays.
"We are trying to increase the efficiency of the services that we provide for the citizens," said Hector Cruz, director of the Public Works Department. "In order to improve the way we do business, we want to move the yard waste from Wednesdays to Mondays."
Cruz said the department has done extensive research on the matter and that moving the yard waste collection day to Monday was more logical, since most yard work is typically done over the weekend.
"We see it in the street all of the time, everybody just sits their stuff aside for the Wednesday pickup," Cruz said. "People do their yard waste clean-up for their house over the weekend, so it only makes sense to make that happen on Mondays and push that Monday pickup for Wednesdays."
Due to shifting the collection of yard waste to Mondays, the Public Works Department has also rescheduled the pickup of household waste to Wednesday, the same day as recycling collection.
"If you are a Monday pickup, it will become a Wednesday pickup for trash," said Cruz.
The date change, effective Monday, will only affect residents with pickup days scheduled for that day. Other town sanitation services will remain the same; there will be no changes to Tuesday, Thursday or Friday collections.
Cruz said everyone in the department has been busy, notifying residents of the date change and preparing for the new service days.
"We have built our own signage, to make sure that the citizens know, and we have already divided the areas, in order to facilitate for the services with the equipment and the resources that we already have," he said.
In November, Cruz went before the Board of Commissioners with the department's request for the service dates change and it was approved unanimously.
"We pretty much have a good plan together to make this happen," he said.
Additionally, the public works department would also like to encourage town residents to recycle, using the provided recycling bins. For more information, you can contact the public works department at 424-4555 ext. 3380 or ext. 3384.

Lyles, Niese meet with their clubs in need of a win
Two teams riding losing streaks will open a three-game series on Friday night at Citi Field, meeting for the last time this season. Jordan Lyles will take the ball for the Astros against the Mets' Jonathon Niese.
The Astros come to New York having dropped seven straight games, including three in St. Louis to begin their trip. Houston is still looking for its first victory under interim manager Tony DeFrancesco, who took over for Brad Mills on Sunday.
The Mets welcome the Astros to town after opening their homestand with a four-game sweep at the hands of the Rockies. New York has lost five straight overall.
The clubs haven't met since the Astros, then nearly at .500, swept the Mets in three games from April 30-May 2 in Houston.
Lyles will face the Mets for the first time. The 21-year-old right-hander is 2-10 with a 5.70 ERA, and the Astros are 2-16 in his starts. Lyles hasn't won since June 26.
He posted consecutive starts of seven innings and two earned runs allowed earlier this month, but he surrendered seven runs (five earned) in four-plus innings on Saturday against the D-backs. He gave up six of those without recording an out in the fifth, continuing an unwelcome trend.
"If you put my whole season in a short sentence, it would be the big inning," Lyles said. "I've got to stay away from that and do a better job of minimizing my mistakes. Once my back is against the wall, I've got to get out of that inning with one or two runs instead of five or six, which is what I've been doing."
Niese (10-6, 3.49 ERA) has dominated over his past two starts. The lefty has pitched 15 1/3 innings in that span, giving up one run on 11 hits and two walks, while striking out 13.
He led the Mets to their most recent win on Saturday, shutting out the first-place Nationals over 7 1/3 innings.
"It seems like when you need him most, he's stepped up," manager Terry Collins said. "He'll have a so-so outing, then he'll have a real good one. Tonight, he knew we needed him again, and he gave us a great, great outing."
Astros: Maxwell in recovery mode
Outfielder Justin Maxwell missed his second consecutive start on Thursday, the result of a bruised right index finger. He did appear as a pinch-runner on Wednesday.
"He still needs a day or two," DeFrancesco said before Thursday's game.
Maxwell leads all players on the Astros' active roster with 12 home runs in only 225 at-bats. He is hitting .236 with a .764 OPS in 96 games since Houston claimed him off waivers in April.
DeFrancesco grew up in the Bronx as a Yankees fan and expects to have more than a dozen family and friends in the stands on Friday.
Mets: Trying something new at the top
After his team scored two runs or fewer in each of the previous five games, Collins took a different approach with his lineup on Thursday afternoon against the Rockies, giving Jordany Valdespin his second start in the leadoff spot.
"Obviously, we are doing anything we can come up with to get this offense kick-started," Collins said. "We wanted to get Jordany at the top. That's where he has spent pretty much most of his career, leading off."
The often impatient rookie carried a .276 on-base percentage into the game, including .213 in August, but went 1-for-3 with a single, a walk, a sacrifice bunt and a stolen base. It didn't help the Mets' offense, which was shut out.
Worth noting
The Astros' last visit to Citi Field came last April 19-21, 2011, when Houston won two out of three games.
Niese's last start against the Astros on May 1 at Minute Maid Park was tied for his shortest of the season. He gave up five earned runs on six hits in three innings.

Okay, so the phrase "The new TSA PreCheck application form went live this week!" may not be quite as hot as, say, "So sorry, there's no room in coach, would you mind if we bump you up to first class?" But if you're not one of the 25 million airline passengers who have already used PreCheck to zoom through security (with your shoes, belt, and coat on and your laptop safely tucked away), it's time to sign up!

From Wired.com
Nintendo said Wednesday it is developing a new home game console code-named Revolution in an apparent attempt to catch up with rival Sony.
Satoru Iwata, Nintendo's president, refused to give details, saying he feared competitors will steal the plan, but said a prototype, which will be shown next year, will deliver "new ideas" for entertainment and won't be merely a more powerful version of its current GameCube machine.
Iwata reiterated his view that Nintendo should not follow the strategy of Sony, which is working on a more powerful chip to drive its next home game machine. He said the gaming industry is reaching a dead end as its past formula for success -- dazzling consumers with more sophisticated imagery -- no longer works.

SMF Development > Next SMF Discussion
[Official mod] Sitemap
--- Quote from: Norv on November 07, 2011, 06:48:38 AM ---Can you folks - those who would like to see this feature in SMF - please point out to me what does your sitemap contain, or what do you think it will usually contain?
--- Quote from: ziycon on October 06, 2011, 05:27:19 AM ---I agree, I would like to see a sitemap as standard functionality, maybe not to link all topics(maybe optional if this is added) but at minimum its would list all boards and child boards that are visible to guests. Also maybe add a variable to the board create/modify page so that you can give that board a priority for the sitemap.
--- End quote ---
This is the board index page though.
I admit I don't see why a sitemap should belong in SMF - meaning in a forum package, although I can understand why it is good to have a fully grown site (with a forum and other pages or even software). It is indeed good to have when you have a number of additional pages. Am I missing something?
--- End quote ---
I understand that this is only information on the board index but it might be a case that someone might only want/require the boards to be in the sitemap, if they have thousands of topics that can make for a very big sitemap, depending on how many times a search engine downloads or crawls the sitemap it could take a big lump of bandwidth.
I kinda understand why people might not want the sitemap due to it only listing forum pages and if the forum was integrated to a site it wouldn't accommodate for these outside pages.
I agree, nice :)
I support the sitemap to be default feature of SMF but can be enable or disable from admin panel. If you need it, enable it; if you don't need, then disable it. Simple!
Agree... sitemap should be there but the URL of sitemap should be SEO friendly..
Current sitemap url is <Forum Url/>index.php?action=sitemap;xml which is acceptable for google.. but not for aks and bing
ask and bing only accept in <Forum URL>/sitemap.xml url for sitemap... hope you have got me
An xml sitemap is very useful. A normal sitemap is about as useful as a flag as a parachute.

Chelo is the Interactive Managing Editor for Pronews 7 and ConnectAmarillo.com
The American Red Cross has released an app that will provide real-time information before, during and after a tornado. The app is designed to cater to people who live in, visit or have friends and family that live in tornado prone areas.
"Tornadoes often happen in the overnight hours when people are sleeping," said Steve Pair, executive director of the Texas Panhandle Chapters. "The audible alerts in this app can save lives - even if users can't monitor the weather because they are away from radio, TV or in places where weather band radios may not work."
According to a news release from the American Red Cross, the app is free and will be available in English and Spanish. It is available on iPhone, iPad, and Android smart phones and tablets. The app also includes a siren tornado warning alert for warning issued and an "all clear" alert to let users know a tornado warning has been canceled or expires.
Other features of the app are:
The Tornado App is the latest in a series of mobile apps released by The American Red Cross. Red Cross Apps have been used to help save lives during hurricanes, earthquakes and wildfires.

If adopted, a $3.73 fee will be charged to everyone who uses the streets lights, including residents, churches, schools and other non-profit organizations.
Funding for street lighting currently comes from the General Fund, which is funded through annual property taxes.
Over the past few years, maintenance on streets lights was scaled down due to a tight budget.
Churches, schools and other non-profit organization do not currently pay the General Fund.
Under the "Street Light Enterprise Fund" an estimated $3.6 billion would be generated, but the proposed fee would not result in a corresponding drop in property taxes.
Several residents from the Glendale area showed up for public comment and voiced their anger about the fee.
Randy Sorensen, a Glendale community spokesman, said residents agreed to pay $2.73, but not $3.73. Sorensen said broken lights and dark areas are a problem, but the residents are on a tight budget.
"This is not a fee, this is a tax," he said. "It has no limit and can keep going up."
Other residents said light posts need repair, bulbs need to be replaced and the city needs to help curb crime and theft of the street light property.
A vote by the Salt Lake City Council is expected on Dec. 11. If adopted, the fee would appear in the Jan. or Feb. billing cycle.

Recipe by JJOHN32
"A friend gave me this delicious lemon-flavored cheesecake recipe. Simple to make, and a favorite ending for a special meal."
Watch video tips and tricks
2 tablespoons graham cracker crumbs
4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup white sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon lemon zest
2/3 cup apricot preserves
2 tablespoons water
4 cups fresh strawberries
Cheesecake is great! It is the easiest recipe that I've found!!! We added blueberries to the top of the cheescake for an even more colorful and fruity dessert. Everbody loves it!!!
I really liked this recipe... it sounded odd to me. Lemon, strawberries, and apricots... But it was great and it has become one of our favorites.
18 Ratings
The cheesecake itself is awesome! The topping, not so much. I followed the recipe exactly, but the apricot topping never set up, so when I took it to my sister's for Easter, I got glaze everywhere! Even a slight tip of the cake plate sent the glaze running, which made a mess in my car and on my clothes. Next time, I'll bake the cheesecake as directed, but top it with a little fresh fruit compote right before serving.
I used 1 tsp. bottled lemon juice and tasted no lemon flavor at all. Either you absolutely must use fresh, or you must use more than 1 tsp., or it needs a boost with some lemon extract. Otherwise, the cheesecake was great!
Impressed the in-laws and was a hit at a birthday party! I squeezed the lemon juice out of a lemon and a half to give it a little more flavor- It was amazing!
This recipe was a hit. It was light and had a wonderful flavor I made a strawberry glaze with fresh strawberries and used more graham crackers to cover the bottom of the cake. I will make it again.
Easy and impressive! I actually cut the recipe down to three servings, and used a muffin pan for individual servings (which made six muffin cup sizes. I used a little more graham crackers for more of a crust. The cooking time was much shorter. Took them out just as the tops started to crack. I also made a little extra apricot topping and dripped it over the edges. They were very refreshing and pleasing in appearance.
I brought this to work and had a lot of good responses. I ended up using about 1.5 Tbls of lemon juice (about 1/2 a lemon) and enough blueberries to cover the top of the cake instead of the strawberries. I thought the changes worked out great, I might just use 1 Tbls of lemon juice next time though.

Iraq: Photos of July 8 protest in Baghdad's own Tahrir Square
Thursday, July 21st, 2011from the General Federation of Iraqi Workers: http://www.iraqitradeunions.org/wordpress/?p=3401
Hundreds of ordinary Iraqis-men and women and children protested today in central Baghdad, Tahrir Square Friday 8 July calling on the Iraqi authorities to provide jobs and basic services including clean water and electricity. Protestors carried handmade posters calling for an end to corruption and demanding an immediate political reform.
Protesters, today, sent a clear message to the Iraqi authorities telling them to stop the current political stalemate, which led to worsening of security situation, and to agree on a genuine national reconciliation plan. Alternatively protested called for an early national general election to allow the people to decide themselves.
(TxLAW note: we are featuring pictures showing brave Iraqi women–some in traditional dress, some not. For more photos, go to the link above.)

It works for me, but then again it only works properly when I have just the target I want and my current target on my screen, rather than ERRYTHUNG
listen, tab targeting doesn't work on so many things. its time to start practicing mouse targeting. sure, tabbing might be easier on some things, but just break the habit. you'll thank me later.
You can use macros if you want, similar to the arena macros people use:
/tar boss1
boss2, boss3, boss4 etc with boss1 being the target that is furthest up on your boss frames.
The Truth Siren:
Normal is right where it should be in difficulty. Heroic should be increased slightly in difficulty.
BC grew in sub numbers more than any other period in wow. Not convenient enough for your sorry argument? Too bad,so sad! With the arterial bleed of subs the fastest it's ever been, it shows that no matter how easy things get, it isn't enough to keep people.
Heh my most hilarious moments were when i was trying to tab switch target in Firelands and instead of the next mob in front of me, i was trageting another like 80-100 yards away, that was not even agroed.
Or even better the unique joy to tab switching and actually targeting a dead mob!
I have issues with garalon legs as well. I am a tank kitter and trying to get the leg is hell, settled with the traditional click and target method and all is fine. Not very optimal for ranged though. One of the add ons that the guys suggested maybe. Not sure if you gain a dps benefit by dotting all legs, but i guess that it works since you re trying.
tab targeting has always been horribly bugged.

Teacher Feature #28 – Pay It Forward Day
Activity, Info, Reflection, Teacher Feature, Tip No Comments »I must admit that I look forward to reading the regular Saturday's "Random Acts of Kindness" page in our local Winnipeg Free Press newspaper. With all the drama and sensationalism, that is often dispensed through our news media, it is so refreshing to read about individuals who do good deeds for others without any thought of thanks in return.
For this month's "Teacher Feature" remix or mashup, I thought that I'd attempt to accomplish two tasks – one to inspire and one to remind:
Teacher Feature #28 – Aesop – April, 2013
Following the inspiring pattern that I have established in my previous 27 "Teacher Feature" remixes, I blended a powerful message with a complementary Creative Commons licensed photo, together with its Flickr address. However, I also took the liberty of including a reminder for teachers and students that, each year, the last Thursday in April is reserved as "Pay It Forward Day". Unfortunately, due to family commitments, I have not recently been blogging as regularly as I would like. As such, I missed giving adequate warning this year of the very powerful teaching opportunity of the "Pay It Forward Day". It is hoped that teachers will print out this image reminder, or at least mark their calendars well in advance, to take advantage of this teaching opportunity in future years. Perhaps, Aristotle said it best … "Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all."
Take care & keep smiling

Topic Overview
Although home treatment cannot stop your prostate from getting larger, it can help reduce or control your symptoms. Here are some things you can do that may help reduce your symptoms:
- Practice "double voiding." Urinate as much as you can, relax for a few moments, and then urinate again.
- Avoid caffeine and alcohol. They make your body try to get rid of water and can make you urinate more often.
- If possible, avoid medicines that can make urination difficult, such as over-the-counter antihistamines, decongestants (including nasal sprays), and allergy pills. Check with your doctor or pharmacist about the medicines you take.
If home treatment does not help, BPH can be treated with medicine. Medicine can reduce the symptoms, but it rarely gets rid of them. If you stop taking medicine, symptoms return.
If your symptoms are severe, your doctor may suggest surgery to remove part of your prostate. But few men have symptoms or other problems severe enough to need surgery.
Can BPH be prevented?
You cannot prevent BPH or the urination problems it may cause. Some people believe that regular ejaculations will help prevent prostate enlargement. But there is no scientific proof that ejaculation helps.

Take the steps to begin your journey:
Take the steps to begin your journey:
Frequently Asked Questions
What are my chances of receiving financial aid?
The only way to determine your eligibility for financial aid is to submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The likelihood of receiving some form of financial assistance is probably better than most students and their families anticipate.
What is the deadline to apply for financial aid?
To receive maximum consideration for aid, the FAFSA must be received by the institution for processing prior to April 1 each year. Students requesting scholarship consideration must submit their requests to the Scholarship Office prior to February 15 of that year.
Is there a maximum income level that will disqualify me from receiving financial aid?
Most people have the misconception that income is the only factor in determining need for financial aid assistance. However, other variables are considered such as: family size, number of family members in college, age of older parent, savings, investments, and various other allowances to the family's income and assets.
Are there other forms that I can fill out in order to be considered for any other grants?
The FAFSA is the only application required in order to be considered for all grant programs available through processing by the financial aid office.
In order to receive financial aid do I have to apply every year?
Yes. In order to receive consideration for eligible programs you must file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) each year. File the FAFSA as close to January as possible.
If my parents are divorced or separated, which parent do I put on the FAFSA?
You should provide information from the parent that provided you with the most support in the past year. If the parent who provided you with the most support has remarried, your step-parent's information must also be provided on the FAFSA.
Why can't I apply for financial aid without using my parent's information on the FAFSA form?
When you apply for federal student aid, your answers to certain questions will determine whether you are considered dependent on your parents or independent. If you are considered dependent on your parents, you must report their income and assets as well as your own. If you think you have unusual circumstances that would make you independent, talk to your financial aid administrator.
What happens if I drop a class?
If you drop a class prior to the census date, you may be responsible for repayment of the difference between the amount of money you received and the amount specified for the new enrollment status. If you drop a class, you must make sure you remain in compliance with our Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) policy.
What happens if I withdraw?
If you withdraw completely or drop below 1/2 time status, you may be responsible for repaying money received from financial assistance. You will be academically ineligible for financial aid if you return to school and fail to remove all academic deficiencies.
Will the financial aid transfer from one school to another?
No. Financial aid does not transfer from school to school. Student planning to transfer to another school should contact the Financial Aid Office at both schools to find out what is required.
What is verification? And why was I chosen?
You should save all records and all other materials used in completing the application because you may need them later to prove that the information you reported is correct. This process is called verification.
Many students are selected for verification randomly by the federal processor. However, verifications are also chosen due to mistakes and important data missing on the form such as those questions pertaining to income.
Many students are selected for verification randomly by the federal processor. However, verifications are also chosen due to mistakes and important data missing on the form such as those questions pertaining to income.
Why is the maximum amount of loan money limited?
Students applying for the Federal Direct Loan are subject to annual and aggregate loan limits that are based on the academic level, dependency status, and length of the academic program. According to federal regulations, your Federal Direct Loan award must be issued in two equal disbursements during the academic year. If you plan to enroll for multiple terms, your loan and award will issued in equal disbursements.
What if my financial assistance is not available by the due date for my tuition?
Students may apply for short-term loans to help pay for certain semester educational expenses.
Cost of Attendance (COA)
The total amount of it will cost you to go to school-- usually stated as a yearly figure. COA includes tuition and fees; room and board (or a housing and food allowance); and allowances for books, supplies, transportation, loan fees and dependent care. It also includes miscellaneous and personal expenses, including an allowance for the rental or purchase of a personal computer; costs related to a disability; and reasonable costs for eligible study-abroad programs. For students attending less than half-time, the COA includes tuitiona and fees and an allowance for books, supplies, and dependent care expenses, and can also include room and board for up to three semesters or the equivalent at the institution. But no more than two of those semesters, or the equivalent, may be consecutive. Contact the financial aid administrator at the school you're planning to attend if you have any unusual expenses that might affect your COA.

Virtualized wireless LAN specialist Meru Networks is emerging from an extended period of channel evaluation and now plans to spend less time recruiting solution providers and more time enabling the ones building strategic Meru practices.
"If you're going to leverage the channel, you have to invest, have relationships that are meaningful and also be meaningful to the partner's business," Gary Abad, Meru vice president of worldwide sales channels, told CRN. "We're at that phase at Meru now where we do have an overall partner [base] but we want to put a concerted focus on our best and most meaningful partners."
With that in mind, Meru last week revamped its channel program to organize higher-performing partners into Authorized, Gold and Platinum tiers. Meru also is adding deal registration and sales and technical training, free to higher-tiered partners, to the program, as well as free demo equipment to Gold- and Platinum-level VARs.
[Related: 12 Recent Networking and Infrastructure Deals To Keep An Eye On]
Ten-year-old Meru has about 1,800 resellers worldwide. Abad said when he joined the Sunnyvale, Calif., company in February following channel stints at Kaspersky Lab, F5 Networks and Polycom, it didn't yet have a good way to sort and reward top-performing partners from baseline resellers and opportunist-type partners. It has since realized it needs to be more selective about its top partners.
"You'll see a paring down," he said. "We don't want folks out there who just sort of hang out in the program and won't work with Meru without real commitment. We need the partners to know that if they're working with us, they're offering customers a solution that really is an alternative to what's out there."
The wireless LAN space has once again been in focus thanks to big moves like Ruckus Wireless' IPO and Cisco's $1.2 billion acquisition of Meraki in November. Meru has staked much of its growth on customer embrace of virtualized 802.11n wireless technology and adjacent areas such as identity management.
Abad said Meru wants to enable partners to drive services opportunities around sales of Meru products, especially professional services related to network design and management. Meru's top partners -- about 5 percent of its total base -- collectively grew their Meru revenue nearly 60 percent over the past year, Abad said, meaning the company has lots to work with.
For the first time ever this past year, Meru invited 12 of its biggest partners to attend the company's sales kickoff. The goal was to bring strategic partners into deep-dive conversations with Meru's management, engineering and sales teams, Abad said, and share ideas on how to expand Meru's footprint in key wireless vertical markets such as hospitality and education.
The company has been slowly growing, although its stock price, two years after its IPO, continues to disappoint. Earlier this year, Meru's former CEO, Ihab Abu-Hakima, left the company and was succeeded by former Trident Communications CEO Bami Bastani.
Meru took in a $12 million round of growth capital debt financing in June, and in October, it reported solid fiscal third-quarter earnings: revenue of $25.4 million, up 7 percent from the year earlier, on a loss of $5 million, smaller than $5.2 million the year earlier. It also added 400 customers worldwide, for a total of more than 7,000.
Count Meru among the wireless LAN alternatives that see a golden opportunity in Cisco's Meraki acquisition, Abad said.
"Any time one of us is gobbled up at that kind of price, I think it absolutely validates what we're doing and how we're going about it," Abad said. "Our entry into the virtual controller market -- this validates everything we've done. But what also comes up is when you have a company like Cisco buying a small company like Meraki, what comes up is, who was right? Is it Cisco, or is it Meraki? How do they manage that program? When people start asking those questions, they look at what else is out there."

Mountain West Connection takes a look at the Cal Poly Mustangs. Their RB loves Animal Planet and wears a grill.
Mountain West Connection put together a list of all the conference games this week and how they can be viewed. This chart will be very handy in the future as the TV deal is such a mess this year. You can also vote for which you are looking forward to. Just a reminder that the Wyoming-Toledo game which will not be televised. So get your butt to War Memorial.
After his 173 yard and two touchdown performance Wyoming's Robert Herron was named receiver of the week by College Football Performance Awards. Herron shares the honor with Austin Franklin of New Mexico State. Herron put his big numbers against Texas while Franklin torched FCS Sacramento State. Others that received honorable mention are: Marqise Lee (USC), Conner Vernon (Duke), DeAndre Hopkins (Clemson), Brelan Chancellor (North Texas) and Byron Hankerson (FAU).
There is some possible hope Wyoming fans. U-Verse could possibly pick up the Longhorn Network and possibly in time for Saturday's game.
Mountain West Connection found another Wyoming game that will broadcast. The new Time Warner Cable SportsNet will launch October 1st and show 12 Mountain West football and at least 24 basketball games. The Wyoming at UNLV game is one of those 12 broadcasts. Since it is such a new channel, no one except Time Warner has picked it up yet. DirecTV and Dish are not currently set to carry the channel.
Jeremy and Chris from MWC Connection have been doing a preview for every Mountain West team. They were kind enough to have me join them. They even finally wrangled out a season prediction from me. Check out the podcast and the other great stories they have on the site.
The SB Nation site "The Only Colors" was able to confirm with Michigan State that they will play Wyoming in 2014. The sad part is that there will be no return trip to Laramie. So if you really want to see Cowboys and Spartans play in person you better book your ticket to Michigan.
SB Nation is inducting members to it's first College Football Hall of Fame. Cowboy Altitude nominated Wyoming great WR Marcus Harris and now he needs your vote. He is going against some stiff competition of players that had big NFL careers. This is based on the college career and his resume is superb. So vote now, vote often and share the link with any other Wyoming sites/message board. ROCK THE VOTE!!!!!!

Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition (NA)
Third party DRM: Steam
This game requires a free Steam account to play.Description
"Not once when you die does Dark Souls help you back up, not once does it let up in its astonishing quality or turn to padding, and not once do the ideas stop coming. Buy it." - IGN.com
"It's in the uncompromising way it throws conventional wisdom to the wind, dropping you into its dangerous world without guidance, making you fend for yourself, and teaching you to shrug off defeat time and time again to finally earn victory. That this vast and unforgettable masterpiece is now only $40 makes the decision to play it even easier." - Gamespot.com
Players are talking about this game right now - find out more on Playfire.
Dark Souls is an action role-playing game from the developers who brought you Demon's Souls, FromSoftware.
A dark fantasy universe, tense dungeon crawling, fearsome enemy encounters and unique online interactions. Dark Souls is a spiritual successor to Demon's, not a sequel. Prepare for a new, despair-inducing world, with a vast, fully-explorable horizon and vertically-oriented landforms. Prepare for a new, mysterious story, centered around the King's Crowns and the original, now dying flame at the center of the world. But most of all, prepare to die. You will face countless murderous traps, countless darkly grotesque monsters and several gargantuan, supremely powerful demons and dragons. You must learn from death to persist through this unforgiving world. And you aren't alone. Dark Souls allows the spirits of other players to show up in your world, so you can learn from their deaths and they can learn from yours.
New to Dark Souls is Beacon Fire, where you can share the experiences of your adventure with the spirits of other players. Around the Beacon Fire, you may find the only warmth and calm that exists in this dark world. Beware: There is no place in Dark Souls that is truly safe. With days of game play and an even more punishing difficulty level, Dark Souls will be the most deeply challenging game you play this year. Can you live through a million deaths and earn your legacy?
New Content:
Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition includes an untold chapter in the world of Lordran where the player must stop the spread of darkness at all costs by facing and defeating the Dark Knight Artorias.
New Bosses – Including Artorias of Abyss, Chimera of Tomb, and more
PVP Online Matchmaking System – Quick matching for co-op or PVP
New Areas – Including Oolacile Tomb, Old Ruins and more
New Enemies – Including Abyss Guard, Chained Prisoner and more
New NPCs – Including Hawkeye Gough and more
New Weapons and Armor – Equip some from the new bosses, enemies, and NPCs
The Worlds of Dark Souls
- Traps
Prepare to die! You may get scorched alive or bludgeoned by a giant pendulum scythe or impaled by an arrow through the heart. The traps in Dark Souls are bound to kill you.You can connect to the online community and participate in the journeys of other real players. Watch the deaths of other players and learn from their mistakes. Find and leave messages, warning of perilous spots. New to Dark Souls, you can gather with other players at the Beacon Fire and share your trials and tribulations.
- Maps
You are thrust into the world of demons, where those humans with the Dark Ring are sent to succumb and transform into the living dead. Darkness reigns. The one original flame now nests in the core of this world, all but dead. The demons have conquered the immortal dragons and all across their world, lay the decrepit signs of their rule. Dark Souls carries on the dark fantasy themes that you love, but this is a new, open world; One that is vast, with seamlessly-connected dungeons. Whatever you can see, you'll be able to reach and explore. Land formations are more complex and vertically-oriented, so prepare to travel and battle on the great heights of the world.
- Enemies
You will face many unique, despair-inducing monsters. Survival means accepting you will die, learning from death and overcoming the ultimate challenge to reclaim your soul.The demons who rule this world gain their extraordinary power from the King's Crowns. To retrieve the King's Crowns and reach the flame of the world, you will have to face the White King Gwen and his knights, the witch Izarith and her evil daughters, the first dead, Nit, and the immortal and nameless shadow dwarves.
- Armor
If you hope to ever reach the King's Crowns, you must carefully equip yourself. Your success will depend upon your choice of armor, number of weapons, types of weapons and moves attached to the weapons you choose.There are many new types of weapons and armors in Dark Souls. Another addition to Dark Souls is strategic sword play, which will aid you in destroying the monsters and undead hordes that stand in your way.
- Your Soul
When you begin this adventure, you are soulless. You must emerge from the abyss to reclaim your soul in order to reach the land of the living. Make social connections, win games, find eggs and solve riddles—and increase your soul energy until you get your entire spiritual essence back. The gauge at the bottom of your dashboard numerically measures the amount of soul energy you have earned. Check your gauge each day to keep track of how much soul energy you have. Do your best to get your numbers high enough so you can say once and for all: Be gone, evil forces, my soul is mine and I am alive!
Customer reviews
Prepare to put over 100 hours
alphaprospector | Dec. 8, 2013 | See all alphaprospector's reviews »Oh man, this game. I double dipped, first here buying it day one and then on retail, getting all the goodies. Yes, it's the kind of game you double dip. Triple dip and more.
While it's unfortunate the PC release is nothing short of a terrible port, thanks to the power of mods the game becomes even more playable. But make no mistake: Dark Souls is one of those Games of the Generation (c) Once you look past the specific details of the PC version and get into the mechanics, length, challenge, setting, everything comes together to bring one of the most awesome experiences I had in years. The game doesn't hold your hand, it throws you to a brutal, dark and grim world where everything is out there, trying to kill you. And what little friends you have only exacerbate the loneliness you feel as you traverse the ruined corridors of long-lost citadels and forests. So much is told with so little dialogue. That economy of words and lack of exposition and overly long cutscenes, QTEs and such is what makes this game so great: you ARE playing most of the time, that's what games should be! Not interactive movies.
Anyway, not much else to say, just grab your armor, pick up your weapons of destruction and unveil the twisted mysteries that lie behind Lordran the Land of the Gods and its twisted time-altered existence. There is no way back.
Difficult, but rewarding
Luke123190 | Nov. 23, 2013 | See all Luke123190's reviews »The game is based on the soul idea of the player dying, a lot. The game works around this feature and is very smooth for a such a dark game. Its fun to play but has a buggy ui which can be fixed with mods. The game also lacks direction and kinda of nudges you in a direction it never makes it clear. However my favourite feature is when you see a bloodstain and can watch another player die in some way.
Flawed port of an amazing game
heretickitsune | Nov. 11, 2013 | See all heretickitsune's reviews »Dark Souls is a lengthy and difficult game, with a deep and depressing plot hidden within the game that you'll love to discover. Of course, you'll have to stop dying so often to do that... which is no easy task. This game wants you dead.
But, that's perfectly fine, because almost all of the time, it was your fault. You could have prevented your death. You could have been faster, more aware, more prepared. You will get frustrated, but you will learn. And you will love it. The combat system is deep and deliberate: everything you do has a consequence, and you have to learn what to do and when, unless you enjoy flailing angrily instead of attacking while a goat demon introduces you to his giant machetes. And on that note, part of the learning experience involves discovering that death isn't always a terrible thing... after all, you don't lose any of your inventory.
The controls might take some getting used to at first, but once you master them you realize just how great the controls and handling are.
Don't worry though, help does exist in this world. Other players can place signs that allow you to summon them, and they'll be able to assist you. Though, not all Dark Souls players wish to help you... there are those who will invade your world, seeking to kill you for their own gain. Defeat them, however, and you will be rewarded.
A vast amount of equipment exists in this game, with many varying weapon types. Short swords, greatswords, magic, rapiers, crossbows, spears, and even a few whips! They all differ more than just in basic statistics, however, as two different weapons in a single category can behave differently. You can carry as much as you want in your inventory, but there is a weight limit for equipment that varies based on your stats and some accessories, giving even more depth to your choice on what to wear into battle. Unfortunately there are some balance issues, but nothing major: if you're good enough, you can run around naked and punch things to death with your bare hands (I don't recommend this because it takes forever).
Graphically, the game looks quite great. The overall design is wonderful
So, with all this praise, why not a perfect 100? Sadly, the game does have some faults. Texture quality can vary, though as a whole the game looks quite great. There are a couple of moments in the game that you pretty much need prior knowledge to avoid dying the first time, but they are very few and far between. The biggest problem, however, is the shoddy quality of the PC port. This game was originally on the Playstation 3, then ported quite well to the Xbox 360. The 360 version was ported to the PC due to so many fans requesting it, and the developers told the fans prior that they had zero experience with PC game development but with enough demand they'd try and port it. Well, it shows: The resolution settings aren't very good, the mouse and keyboard support is abysmal (the game was made for controllers anyway so just use a 360 or PS3 controller, or similar), and the multiplayer has some troubles with connecting. The community stepped in, however, and there are popular fixes out there for the PC version that are easy to find, easy to use, and perfectly safe to install.
To summarize, Dark Souls is a very challenging, but fair, game. Looks great, plays great, very engaging. Offline or online, you'll have a great experience, but you will die very often. The key is to keep trying and keep getting better... and you'll soon find those super difficult moments from the past are no match for your increasing skill with the game. The PC version has some issues, but downloading and installing DSFix along with Dark Souls Connectivity Fix basically patches those problems and create the ultimate version of the game. There's even a mouse fix in case you want to play with keyboard and mouse.
If you want a deep, rewarding game, purchase Dark Souls. And when you do...
Prepare to Die.
A Difficult Game, but Worth Every Penny
Gamerman246 | Oct. 29, 2013 | See all Gamerman246's reviews »Bottom line, this game is amazing. It easily takes the #1 spot on my list for favourite game, simply because it stands apart from other games this generation. It may appear difficult and daunting at first, but once you begin conquering what at first seemed impossible, it's a great feeling of accomplishment that I have not experienced for a long time out of a video game. In addition, it's that comprehensive and deep in it's RPG and world building elements that new playthroughs almost always bring new discoveries, no matter how many times you play it.
While it may be a dodgy PC port and many recommend a controller, a few fixes later you have a very functional, enjoyable game, controller or not. If you can look past its technological flaws, and have been longing for a comprehensive game that stands apart from others in the same genre, I could not recommend this game more highly.
Punishing, Yet Satisfying
coopopolopolis | Oct. 25, 2013 | See all coopopolopolis's reviews »Dark Souls brings back the classic concept that finishing a game should be an accomplishment, not a requirement. Remember all of your old NES games that would kill you over and over until you reached the point of giving up? That's exactly what this game does. It doesn't sugar coat anything. It doesn't hold your hand and tell you want to do every step of the way. It just gives it to you over and over. You learn from your mistakes, so that when you conquer something, you actually feel good about what you achieved. I've never died so many times in a game and been ok with it at the same time. It's a great game that you should really give a chance if you aren't easily frustrated with lost progress. It's an immersive world that will keep you on your toes as death literally is waiting around every corner. The game does suffer from being a bad console port, but luckily the mod community took care of that for you so that you can enjoy a great game with the expected PC graphic experience. I highly recommend giving this one a try. It'll make you a better, or at least more humbled gamer.

10 of our favorite college football traditions
With college football season in full swing, we've compiled a list of our favorite traditions that make autumn Saturday afternoons our favorite time of the year.
1. Script OhioThe signature formation of The Ohio State University Marching Band -- in which marchers spell out "Ohio" in looping cursive -- is performed before or at halftime of home games. It was first performed by the band on Oct. 24, 1936, during the game against Indiana University. Each time the formation is formed, a fourth- or fifth-year sousaphone player is chosen to stand as the dot in the "i" of "Ohio." Only a handful of non-band members have had the honor of "dotting the i." It is considered the greatest honor the band can bestow on any non-member. 2. The 12th manThis tradition stems from the story of E. King Gill, a Texas A&M student who emerged from the stands to take the place of an injured player in a game against Centre College in 1922. Current Texas A&M students call themselves the "12th Man" and stand throughout the game at Kyle Field to support the Aggies. 3. Howard's RockFirst given to then-coach Frank Howard by a friend in the early 1960s, the rock was mounted on a pedestal and placed at the top of the hill behind the east end zone at Clemson's Memorial Stadium in September 1966. The first time the team passed the rock on its way to the field, the Tigers beat Virginia 40-35. Howard, realizing the motivational potential of "The Rock," told his players, "Give me 110% or keep your filthy hands off my rock." The team began rubbing the rock as part of its entrance for the first game of the 1967 season. 4. Ralphie's RunRalphie the Buffalo, the live mascot of the University of Colorado, is often mistakenly labeled a male. Handled by a team of varsity student-athletes, she runs around Folsom Field in a horseshoe pattern before each half of each home game, sometimes reaching speeds of 25 miles per hour. 5. The Sooner SchoonerPulled by two white ponies named Boomer and Sooner, the scaled-down replica of the Conestoga wagon used by settlers of the Oklahoma Territory is a fixture at University of Oklahoma home games. It's driven onto the field in an arc nearly reaching the 50-yard line after each Sooner score. 6. The Gator ChompThe well-known gesture made by Florida fans originated in 1981. It's frequently accompanied at homes games by the university's marching band playing the two-note theme from the movie "Jaws." 7. Chief Osceola and his flaming spearOne of the most indelible pregame rituals involves Florida State's Chief Osceola riding to midfield on his Appaloosa horse, Renegade, and plunging a flaming spear into the grass. The mascot debuted in 1978, and his portrayal remains controversial in some quarters, although it's supported by leaders in the Seminole tribe of Florida. 8. UGAArguably the most famous live mascot in college football, UGA is beloved by the University of Georgia's fan base. Since the mascot's introduction in 1956, there have been nine UGAs. 9. Saturday Night in Death ValleyFor more than a quarter century, Dan Borne' has contributed to one of the most colorful atmospheres in all of college football. As the public address announcer at Tiger Stadium, Borne' is perhaps best known for coining the famous forecast for LSU home games: "Chance of rain -- never!" 10. The Army-Navy gameThe Army-Navy game is about much more than football. First played in 1890, it's one of the sport's most enduring rivalries. From the cadets marching solemnly into the stadium to the alma maters of both teams being played at the game's conclusion, the pageantry surrounding this game is part of what makes college football special. Information compiled from Wikipedia and the universities' websites. |
