"We personalized it by using a fun loving, energetic, whimsical, picture of our kids. They are older 15 and 24 so we needed something silly and fun, not traditional and stoic. With the simplicity of the message we can use this card for everyone!!!! Plus we were able to add a couple of lines for a message and then 3 more fun pictures on the back! We loved it!"
"I loved every single thing about this card- it was beautiful and I received a ton of compliments on it!! The ONLY thing I wish was a bit different was that there was a bit more sheen to the card itself. It is so flat/matte that the colors are more subdue. It would look over the top professional if they just added a little touch of gloss to the card stock. However, I still very much loved this card!"
"We received many compliments on the card. The design and quality of the paper was superb. We are very happy with it. Only one thing, the square shape needs more postage that we didn't know & some cards were sent back to us."
"This is the second year I have purchased from Tinyprints and officiallly now I can say I will never go anywhere else.I love the live chat option.I love the service and I love the quality..The cards,Which came in 1 business day blew my mind! I ordered them in Holiday red with the pearl paper..Stunning..I was even able to download the feel script font to use for addressing our card recipients addresses..That way the labels,cards and adresses all matched..I LOVE them..Thank you so much!!!"
"This card is so beautiful. We are so happy with how it came out. The layout is a little off. Not crazy about how the card folds. But otherwise beautiful."

Over the Rainbow
Congratulations to Cadel Evans who was crowned World Professional Road Race Champion yesterday. A major top spot has seemed to elude Evans until now. He defied his critics with this performance, going on a perfectly timed attack over the last climb of the course in Mendrisio, Switzerland. At a blistering pace he dropped local boy Fabian Cancellara and Spain's Samuel Sanchez to take the title in emphatic style.
Fittingly, Evans will be able to defend his title next year on home tarmac, the 2010 edition taking place in Melbourne and Geelong. The Australian team also topped the table thanks to Jack Bobridge winning the under-23 time trial. Exciting too for Rapha as we are currently installing an Australian locale and will be holding events and rides Down Under in the coming year.

Consumers in the past had to find advice by calling an expert on the telephone, visiting them in an office or writing into an advice column. With the advent of the internet, they can find everything that they need online while sitting at home.
Technology has created a unique situation for the consumer, allowing them to have access to hundreds of experts and their knowledge with just a few clicks of a mouse. They can find advice on everything from symptoms for illnesses, values of various collectibles to financial advice from companies such as UFX Markets Trading. They only have to type in a few simple keywords, hit the search button and many sites with content are at their fingertips.
One of the most popular places to find advice is on matters connected to various government agencies, such as the National Park Service, Internal Revenue Service and others. These sites are a wealth of information of legal regulations, deadlines, history and resources that consumers can take advantage of. There is also information about recalls from the Consumer Products and Safety Commission and safety advice from OSHA.
Consumers can also access information and advice that helps them to make better decisions while shopping online. This can include tips for safe shopping with credit cards, product history and more. They can also easily comparison shop with different companies to find the best deals on products.

Police identify woman killed while crossing Carpenter Road
- Previous story: Pedestrian killed while crossing Carpenter Road
Pittsfield Township police are still seeking witnesses to the fatal collision between a car and a pedestrian on Friday night as they continue their investigation into the incident that took place on Carpenter Road near Ann Arbor.
Paula Gardner | AnnArbor.com
However, officials said on Saturday that one thing is clear: They don't expect charges against the driver of the car that struck the 23-year-old woman crossing Carpenter south of Washtenaw near the Palm Palace restaurant.
"We wouldn't say the driver is at fault," said Deputy Chief Gordy Schick.
Schick said Autumn Renae Tucker, 23, of Tecumseh died shortly after she was struck in the western southbound lane of Carpenter Road.
A 65-year-old man from Ypsilanti had just turned into that southbound lane from eastbound Washtenaw when he spotted Tucker and swerved to avoid her.
However, Schick said, the man's Ford Escape struck Tucker.
"The driver called 911," Schick said, and he remained on the scene as rescue crews arrived shortly after 9:30 p.m.
"Speed was not a factor," he continued. "... He had just completed a turn."
Police are still piecing together how Tucker happened to be in the area, Schick said Saturday morning.
She had been at one of the gas stations on the corner of Washtenaw and Carpenter, and was headed toward the Days Inn when she was struck.
It's unclear whether her destination was the motel, Schick said, but the location of that building - about 50-100 feet from the intersection and its crosswalk - indicates that the driver had no reason to expect a pedestrian in that stretch of the road.
Tucker also was wearing a dark hoodie and blue jeans, making it difficult to see her, Schick said.
Two pedestrians were killed by vehicles in the Ann Arbor area in November, including one in Pittsfield Township on Golfside Drive. Neither was crossing at a crosswalk, but the second incident - on Ann Arbor-Saline Road - prompted concerns about pedestrian safety in that area of the city.
Pedestrian safety also has been an issue in the Carpenter Road area following two additional pedestrian accidents, including one that was fatal, since 2010.
The Washtenaw County Road Commission, at the request of the township, in November installed a pedestrian crossing on Carpenter near Center Drive, about a mile south of Friday's crash scene.
Efforts to increase pedestrian activity and safety continue with recent work at the busy Washtenaw/Carpenter intersection, where paths were just built near the ramps to US-23.
Anyone who witnessed this accident is asked to contact the Pittsfield Township Department of Public Safety at 734-822-4911.

David's analysis of what the Super Tuesday results mean for the GOP race.
You have to remember that many democrats came out to vote for Santorum in the open primaries, even in Georgia where Gingrich won and it wasn't even necessary.
On Wednesday the day after Super Tuesday, I think it is inevitable Romney will be the nominee and that the other candidates are playing with mischief. That is what Democrats should prepare for to keep the office of the Presidency.

Recipe by Nurse Ellen so not a
"A super easy way to bake potatoes without heating up the kitchen."
Watch video tips and tricks
4 baking potatoes, well scrubbed
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
kosher salt to taste
4 sheets aluminum foil
I have been making these for years. Just make sure the potatoes are complety dry, from washing them, before rubbing with oil. I have used canola oil, as well. I have never wrapped the potatoes in foil, just rub with oil, salt & pepper and drop them into the crockpot. Wonderfully fresh smell and taste, so different from oven baked. Thanks for the reminder to make these more often.
As with any potato cooked in foil, they are steamed, not baked. Still a good way to make them while you are away. But nothing beats baking a potato at 400-425 degrees for an hour unwrapped.....there is a difference in texture.

Baking potatoes in the slow cooker sounds great! However, one reviewer said she had a roast in the oven all day, at a low temp. It is just as easy to add foil wrapped potatoes to the 5-hour oven baking project. They cook just fine at the lower temp and long baking period. I'm 74 years old, do it all the time, as did my Mother years ago. Works great...saves time, space, etc. You can oil the potatoes before putting in the foil if you wish.
I have done potatoes this way for a couple of years now and they are truely wonderful. Do them the exact way. yum the family loves them.
I also add a butternut squash in the crock pot with a few potatos. You can just put it in whole, no need to peel it or cut in half and wrap in foil if you have a smaller crockpot. When it is done, just scoop out seeds, then scoop out all the flesh, add butter, nutmeg and cinnamon. When I come home I have my potato and vegetable, to me the hard and time consuming parts of preparing supper.
Awesome! Who knew you could make baked potatoes in the slow cooker? These tasted great. I washed my potatoes and let them dry. Then I sprayed my crockpot with cooking spray, rubbed my potatoes down with olive oil, pricked them with a fork, and cooked them for a few hours on low. They were soft but not mushy, and had a much better taste than "baked" potatoes from the microwave.
I am known as the queen of crockpot cooking in my family, if it can be done in a crockpot, I will do it. I have 5 crockpots, and use them all, all the time! However, I have never tried this recipe, until this past weekend. And now I am a believer! I HATE baking potatoes. They just never come out perfect, so I always end up buying the ones you do in the microwave that are wrapped in plastic. Not anymore...I loved these! I scrubbed, let dry, and then rubbed w/ olive oil and kosher salt. I did not wrap in foil, but they turned out fine. Cooked on High for 4 1/2 hours then removed the lid and let them cool for a bit, and they were perfect. Mine weren't "soggy" like some reviewers mentioned, but it might have been b/c I didn't wrap in foil. Not sure, but I will make my potatoes like this many more times! Thanks!!!

Traditionally, intravenous urography has been considered the definitive test for evaluating patients who have acute flank pain and are suspected of having ureteral stones. Recently, however, it has become apparent that noncontrast helical CT (HCT) has major advantages over intravenous urography in the evaluation of patients with urolithiasis.
Noncontrast HCT studies can be completed much more rapidly than intravenous urography, as there is no need for oral or IV contrast administration or other patient preparation. Patients undergoing HCT can be scanned immediately, and the scan time is less than 5 minutes, whereas intravenous urography requires a minimum of 30 minutes, and completion of the study often takes hours if ureteral obstruction is present. Noncontrast HCT avoids the discomfort, inconvenience, and risks associated with the injection of contrast material.
Virtually all types of urinary tract calculi can be visualized with noncontrast HCT (figure 1).l-3 In contrast, a substantial number of urinary tract calculi cannot be visualized with either standard radiography or with intravenous urography.4 Finally, noncontrast HCT is more useful than intravenous urography in detecting important intraabdominal abnormalities other than those associated with urolithiasis.
Acute flank pain is a common complaint in patients with any of a number of disorders. Diagnostic considerations for these patients include ureteral calculi, gynecologic disease, appendicitis, diverticulitis, and biliary tract disease. Rapid diagnosis of a ureteral stone is important to conclude the search for other etiologies and to avoid unnecessary procedures. In addition, identification and characterization of a ureteral stone assists in planning for proper management.
Recent studies have proven that noncontrast HCT is the most accurate technique for detecting urinary tract calculi, including ureteral stones.4-8 It has been demonstrated that stones are more accurately detected with noncontrast HCT than standard radiography, nephrotomography, intravenous urography, or sonography.9,10 In studies using CT as the "gold standard," it has been shown that conventional radiography has a sensitivity of only 50 to 70% for detecting ureteral calculi.9 Overall, noncontrast HCT has a sensitivity of 0.97, a specificity of 0.96, and an accuracy of 0.97 for diagnosis of ureteral stone disease.5 Additionally, research has shown that noncontrast HCT has a positive predictive value of 97% and a negative predictive value of 98% in the diagnosis of ureteral calculi,5 substantially exceeding the accuracy of intravenous urography.4
Although noncontrast HCT provides no direct functional information, it has been found that the size and location of a ureteral stone can be determined more accurately with this technique than with intravenous urography.10 The size and location of stones, coupled with patient symptomatology including duration and severity of pain, evidence of infection, and patient occupation, are the major determinants in planning treatment of ureteral stones.11
In the evaluation of patients with acute flank pain, collimation should be 5 mm, and scanning should extend from the top of the kidneys to the bottom of the bladder. A pitch of 1:1 to 1.5:1 is desirable, and scanning should be completed during a single breath-hold, if possible. However, because respiratory motion in this area is minimal, the pelvic segment of the scan can be performed during unlabored breathing, if necessary. Scanning requires approximately 30 seconds. If deemed necessary, reformatted images can be obtained after evaluation of the standard images.
Image interpretation
Diagnostic findings of ureteral stones can be categorized as primary or secondary. The primary finding indicative of a ureteral stone is visualization of the stone within the ureter. Unlike standard radiography, where 10 to 15% of urinary tract calculi are inadequately mineralized to be radiopaque, virtually all urinary tract stones are radiopaque with noncontrast HCT (figure 1).1-3 Exceptions to this rule include unmineralized stone matrices and stones related to the protease inhibitor Indinavir.12,13 However, these types constitute a minority of ureteral stones. With noncontrast HCT, the attenuation values of ureteral stones are much higher than those of surrounding soft tissues, making the stones more readily detectable. Uric acid stones, which are radiolucent with standard radiography, have attenuation values of 300 to 500 Hounsfield units (HU) (figure 1).13 Calcium stones, in comparison, have attenuation values in excess of 1000 HU.l4 Visually, all of these urinary tract calculi demonstrate homogeneously high attenuation, similar to that of bone cortex. For accurate detection of a ureteral stone, the ureter should be followed caudally on sequential HCT images.
The upper ureter courses from the renal pelvis adjacent to the psoas muscle. The ureter is positioned in the upper abdomen, behind the ipsilateral gonadal vein (figure 2A). In the lower abdomen, it extends medially; the gonadal vein extends laterally. At the level of the iliac crest, the ureter is medial to the gonadal vein. In the pelvis, the ureter is anterior to the internal iliac artery (figure 2B). At the level of the seminal vesicle, or the vaginal fornix in female patients, the course of the ureter is almost directly horizontal as it enters the bladder (figure 2C).
In addition to primary visualization of a ureteral stone, secondary signs
are important for diagnosis. These signs include unilateral ureteral dilatation (sensitivity, 0.87; specificity, 0.90) (figure 3A), unilateral perinephric soft-tissue stranding (sensitivity, 0.76; specificity, 0.90) (figures 3B,4), asymmetric intrarenal collecting system dilatation (sensitivity, 0.80; specificity, 0.91), and unilateral renal enlargement (sensitivity 0.64; specificity 0.89).15 A combination of both unilateral renal dilatation and ipsilateral perinephric stranding has a positive predictive value of 0.96 for ureteral stones.l5 The absence of both of these signs has a negative predictive value of 0.93 for the presence of a ureteral stone.l5
In practice, ureteral dilatation and perinephric stranding are almost always
present in conjunction with a ureteral stone. The absence of these two signs almost completely excludes the possibility of a ureteral stone. However, because secondary signs are absent in a small percentage of patients even when a ureteral stone is present, a diligent search of the images for a ureteral stone is necessary in every case. Furthermore, in symptomatic patients with secondary signs, such as perinephric stranding and ureteral dilatation, but no ureteral stone or evidence to support an alternative diagnosis, the likely diagnosis is recent passage of a ureteral stone, with persistent edema at the ureterovesicular junction.
Interpretation pitfalls
The major difficulty in interpreting noncontrast HCT images of patients with acute flank pain is in distinguishing between phleboliths and ureteral stones, particularly in the pelvis. In addition to secondary signs that, when present, strongly suggest a ureteral stone and when absent suggest that pelvic calcifications are more likely to be outside the urinary tract, other signs have proven helpful in making this distinction. The soft-tissue "rim" sign (figures 5,6) describes a circumferential soft-tissue ring around a calcification.16-18 This sign is thought to be indicative of ureteral wall edema at the site of an impacted stone. Presence of this sign strongly indicates that the calcification represents a ureteral stone rather than a phlebolith (figure 7). The rim sign has a reported specificity of 92% for distinguishing a stone from a phlebolith.l6 The absence of a rim sign is less useful, as it is not seen in approximately one-third of stones larger than 5 mm in diameter. Smaller stones almost always are associated with a rim sign; 90% of stones 4 mm or smaller have associated tissue rim signs.l6 Hence, a 4 mm or smaller calcification without a tissue rim sign is almost certainly a calcified phlebolith. In ambiguous cases, image reformatting may improve detection of this rim sign. Scrutiny of standard 5-mm HCT images reformatted at 3-mm intervals often improves detection of the tissue rim sign, enhancing confidence in the diagnosis of a ureteral stone.
Another secondary sign that is useful for differentiating stones from phleboliths is the "comet-tail" sign.17 This term describes a curvilinear soft-tissue band extending from the suspect calcification on serial images. This soft-tissue band is thought to represent a vein in which the phlebolith has developed, therefore indicating that the associated calcification is a phlebolith rather than a ureteral stone.
Another important pitfall when interpreting noncontrast HCT scans in patients with suspected urolithiasis is the tendency to overlook the presence of other abnormalities. Abnormalities causing symptoms are detected in about one-third of patients who have flank pain but do not have ureteral stones.5 These include extraurinary abnormalities and urinary tract abnormalities other than stone disease. Standard noncontrast HCT scanning is usually adequate for diagnosis of commonly encountered abnormalities that mimic stone disease, such as appendicitis (figure 8), leaking abdominal aortic aneurysm, diverticulitis, and adnexal diseases. However, additional imaging may be useful to better delineate abnormalities suspected after a noncontrast HCT scan. Contrast-enhanced CT may be a helpful alternate modality in this scenario, due to its ability to improve detection of renal infections (figure 9), renal neoplasms, and numerous extraurinary tract abnormalities (figure 10). Oral or rectal contrast agents can be administered to aid in detection of bowel-related diseases.
Techniques other than CT also can be utilized for further evaluation of patients with suspected urolithiasis. On occasion, limited intravenous urography can be performed after a nondiagnostic noncontrast HCT study. This technique is particularly useful when the distinction between phlebolith and ureteral stone cannot be made on the basis of noncontrast HCT results. An intravenous urogram usually demonstrates clearly the ureteral course and its relationship to pelvic calcifications.
Other applications of noncontrast HCT for urolithiasis
Several studies have shown that noncontrast HCT is superior to radiography, nephrotomography, and sonography for detection and measurement of urinary tract stones.9,l0,l9 Therefore, it may be surmised that noncontrast HCT can be useful in the detection of nonobstructing urolithiasis and in accurate assessment of urinary tract stone burden and adequacy of stone removal therapies. There also is evidence that noncontrast HCT findings can be used to predict which patients will spontaneously pass their stones with conservative management alone.20 Small stones (less than 3 mm in diameter) associated with high-grade perinephric stranding and perinephric fluid collections are significantly more likely than other stones to pass spontaneously.20 Noncontrast HCT also can be useful in three-dimensional reconstructions of the upper urinary tract for planning treatment of branched calculi.2l Finally, there is evidence that the chemical composition of urinary tract calculi can accurately be determined by using the CT attenuation characteristics of detected urinary tract stones.l4 This may be useful in treatment planning, as some stones may be resistant to extracorporeal lithotripsy, thereby indicating the need for an alternative treatment.22
Noncontrast HCT is more accurate than any other imaging technique for the detection of urinary tract stones. It is a noninvasive, rapid technique with numerous advantages over more traditional imaging studies. Noncontrast HCT accurately supplies information crucial to clinical decision making in these cases. In addition, the ability of noncontrast HCT to detect abnormalities other than urinary tract stone disease is a major advantage. This modality should replace intravenous urography for imaging of patients with acute flank pain. AR

How is a Server Different From a Desktop?
Server OS
The operating system (OS) is the software platform on top of which other programs will run. Choosing a server operating system is no easy task. The specific operating system you go with will depend on what the server is going to be mainly used for. For basic file servers a small business should choose an operating system that staff will be the most comfortable with. Another issue to consider is if you have any application that is best-suited to a particular operating system.

Countryside Council for Wales Enjoying the country Please note - A new body, Natural Resources Wales has taken over all functions and services previously carried out by Countryside Council for Wales. While the Natural Resources Wales website continues to be developed, some online services will continue to be provided on this web site.
Countryside and Rights of Way Act (2000) (CROW) open access maps
You can find the new provisional and draft map for Wales, and an archive containing all the original map for Wales.
Select a consultation area on the map or from the list below to access the relevant maps.
Resources Includes information on the mapping review, draft modification statements (explanation based on our decisions), how to appeal, and frequently asked questions. The Countryside and Rights of Way (CRoW) Act was passed in 2000. The Act gives a right of access on foot for the purpose of open-air recreation. In Wales, the right given under the Act commenced in May 2005.
When the CROW Act became law CCW was given the role of defining open access land namely mountain moor heath and down and registered common land. We started the process by dividing Wales into 14 different consultation areas. We then produced, through a means of consultation draft, provisional and conclusive (definitive) maps for each area. This process was completed by March 2005 and the Countryside and Rights of Way Act was launched in May 2005. We use the 'definitive maps' as the base map for the countryside access map window. They are also used by the Ordnance Survey for their Explorer 1:25000 sheet maps. You can find more information on open access land and other types of access land in the Enjoying the Country chapter.
Maps based on Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 and 1:50,000 maps.

PLEASE NOTE: Deadline for lodging appeals with the Planning Inspectorate is 7 November 2013
Any person with a legal interest in land shown on the map as open country or registered common land may appeal to the Welsh ministers against the showing of that land on the map as registered common land or open country.
Appeals will be determined by Inspectors appointed by the Welsh Ministers. Details on how to appeal can be found under Resources.

El Palace Hotel Barcelona Guest Reviews (4)
Central location. Can reach a lot of tourist spots on foot. Excellent services provided by the staffs. Definitely will stay at this hotel on next visit to Barcelona. Bed is comfortable and the room is large ( European standard).
EnjoyYourVacation wrote on November 8, 2011
I found the staff to be pleasant, efficient and eager to help at any time. The room was a good size, clean and maintained as was the whole hotel. The location could simply not be better and the hotel building itself was full of character and grace...almost like walking on to a filmset of some great 1930's Hollywood movie with grand mirrors, chandeliers and bell-boys in full uniform! If youre looking for IKEA-esque furniture, modern design and state of the art gadgets, however, this is not for you...but by not staying in The Palace you'd be missing out on a great deal more that encompasses the TOTAL cultural experience that is Barcelona
Richard Fisher wrote on July 20, 2006
Great location. A palace from early 20th century, beautiful and grandiose entrance and salon. However a bit more attention (cleanliness, renovation) should be given to the rooms. Overall an address to recommend.
Alexandra Post Quillet wrote on January 14, 2004
The staff were all extremely warm and welcoming and very helpful - supplying excellent referals for restaurants outside the Ritz itself. I would definitely stay here again and gladly recommend it to friends.

Well, it looks like Big Content finally got to them, because Australia's five major ISPs (Telstra Bigpond, iiNet, Optus, iPrimus and Internode) are all ganging up together in a group called The Communications Alliance to screw over their customers in the name of Big Content. They are going to start sending out warning letters to their customers on mere accusations of copyright infringement, as part of an 18-month trial. These warning letters, termed "educational notices" to spin them as some sort of favour to their customers, would be sent on apparent evidence of infringement, based on IP address – that same method that has proven to be so unreliable, especially against home users, many times over. If their customer still doesn't get it, after three of these "educational notices", the copyright holder gets to enjoy pursuing the "offender" through the courts. The real tragedy, is the way that all this is based on an assumption that file sharing causes lost sales, as they state themselves that the effect is impossible to prove and hence rely on statutory damages. Big Content has never proved it and indeed several studies have shown that file sharing doesn't actually hurt sales and often has a positive effect, as we reported here. The big surprise out of this lot, is to see plucky ISP iiNet in this hall of shame since they were the ISP who'd fought the Australian Federation Against Copyright Theft (AFACT) who had argued "that the ISP infringed copyright by failing to take reasonable steps — including enforcing its own terms and conditions — to prevent customers from copying films and TV shows over its network." - and actually won. Source: ABC News
definitely odd of iiNet to jump on that bandwagon, I am with them now and worked with iiNet for ~18 months too, and this just doesn't seem like them... Also it's Aussie
It's the dollars, isn't it? Just apply enough pressure while at the same time waiving enough money under the executive's noses and they will comply. Stinks. :shadedshu Eek! Forgot to say... thanks to Wyverex for the news tip.
That's not quite accurate Q. "During the trial, rights holders would send copyright infringement notices, including evidence of copyright infringement and the IP address involved, to ISPs who would then send "educational notices" to the internet users concerned." Evidence *MUST* be accompanied with the accusation. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-11-29/copyright-holders-unhappy-with-piracy-plan/3701888 As per usual, however, the Copyright holders have their rights secured, whereas those of the end user are the last to be addressed, if ever :/
It is right JD, because the evidence is all based on the IP. What other way have they got? Have a read of the article I pointed to which explains why going IP address is such a faulty method. Big Content of course, don't give a shit about this, just as long as they can intimidate people with it. Our Aussy friends such as Wolf and Mussels must be really pissed off about this and who can blame them?
I did read it my friend Also saw the show on the ABC about it. So far, here in Queensland at least, we've seen less of this effect then our southern mates have (NSW and Victoria tend to be targeted first, due to the larger population there). I don't object to rights holders enforcing their Intellectual Property, but, as already pointed out, getting unequivocal evidence is difficult to obtain at best, and impossible at worst. Also, there's always that fine line between privacy and law-breaking.. The biggest issue is always the government - it sticks its nose in an environment it knows little to nothing about :/
The problem is that "gang" I talked about. With all of them doing it, where does the customer go to avoid this shit? Everyone knows this, which is why Big Content is roping them all in. Sure, there's a bunch of smaller ISPs, but they'll get sucked in too, in time.
Some ISPs (most notably Telstra), get access to some of the Hollywood studios' movie releases, which can then be streamed for a small fee to its customers. An exclusive deal such as that, is a real money spinner for the ISP in question. For that, they're asked to show some 'goodwill', which inevitably results in stunts like this. Also, the perpetual threat of being taken to court has already sent many smaller ISPs to the wall, due to a lack of legal funds :/
I am guessing iiNet jumped in for the dough, my fiance works for iiNet and they currently have a strong focus on FetchTV sales which is essentially IPTV. I guess this is one way they could get more subscriptions. TPG anyone? EDIT: Aren't all of these ISPs renting lines from Telstra anyway? Telstra could be the one pulling strings here.
That used to be true and in some cases still is. Most notably Optus, has shelled-out big time to get its own lines, as have iiNet and TPG (albeit it to a much lesser extent).
This is 5 days old news, Torrent Freak already reported on this on the 25th. There are more info, as well as a link to the full proposal, here.
Huh! If you think that this is old news, I came across DSO Gaming last week that were "leaking" the HD 7000 specs. However, this news is 2 months old! I didn't write it up... Regardless, it's still relevant to discuss here, especially as it's such a controversial issue.
Maybe all users should just break the contract and screw their alliance over. I wonder how long will they operate without customers...
Even if they track you down to your IP, they can't prove it was you who downloaded said file(s); With numerous people in the house, weak or unsecured wireless, regular visitors (house LANs, etc), it could have been anyone. They should not be able to charge you on that. Unless of course, they search your personal computer and find it (they'll need me at gun point to even get that far, wankers).
im with DODO, i will see what they do, hell what do they expect with a "unlimited" plan. hell as we know not all P2P is bad some of it is quite legal. and with closed torrent sites who only put up clean files, how do they expect to track all this (moral of the story ppl will just not use public sites) worst case i think some will hire a over seas seed box and torrent to that and download via FTP. as for telstra being a big player in this, they have their "telstra T-Box" where you pay and watch movies from online. so it would be hurting them
Exactly, thankyou. I dunno if you saw my link on why this is so in the article? That points to an interesting PC Pro article that explains why in detail.

150 Reef Re-build Project - The Teardown
, 10-05-2012 at 01:32 AM (736 Views)
I have a 150 Gallon Reef tank with what I think is old tank syndrome. This tank has been up and running for 10 years with the same sand bed with a plenum. Now I learned at MACNA that there is no such thing as old tank syndrome but instead it is old lazy aquarist syndrome. (according to Joe Yaiullo) Either way I had to do something and a tear-down was what I decided.I was curious to find out what things looked like under the plenum.
So I took a few days of work so that I could get started on my tear-down project. I took off 3 days and I expected to do the following in those 3 days: 1 - Day 1 remove all the livestock, Day 2 - remove the sand, drain the tank and sterilize and Day 3 - replace the sand, aquascape and refill the tank.
Great plan however Murphy stepped in and slowed things down for me. It was actually almost 3 weeks now since I broke down the tank.
Let me chronicle what I've accomplished so far. Here is the tank as I'm about to remove the fish. Most of the rock had been removed at this point.
I moved the fish and the snails and crabs that I had left to an old 29 Gallon tank I had in the attic. I setup an old sump for the LPS I had left the Rose BTA and the clownfish.
The first problem was getting the BTA off of the rock he was on. I tried the hang upside down method for 40 mins and he didn't budge. In the end I took a screwdriver to break the rock in half to get him out. Small tear but he was fine.
Next I couldn't catch the lawnmower blenny. Everytime I would go in to get him he would duck into a rock in a crack somewhere. I'd pull the rock out but we wouldn't come out. I put the rock back in the tank and 30 mins later he would be swimming around the tank. Finally I had to get going so I put the rock he was in into a rock-cooking barrel. I actually have not seen him since so he might not have made it but he sure wasted a ton of my time.
So at the end of day one I have most everything out of the tank; temporary housing is up for the livestock and I'm ready to get the sand out in the morning.
So I started to scoop up the sand and I was amazed at what this kicked up.
I started to drain the water to make it easier to scoop out the sand. Once this was exposed to the air the smell was terrible. I keep scooping as fast as I could and fed a garden hose through the window to wash things off the walls to clean up the tank as best I could.
Finally I got out enough sand to expose the plenum.
So what does 10 years worth of sludge look like; this is my - anti-miracle mud...
I was impressed with how well the screen, egg-crate and cable ties help up under the sandbed for that long.
So removed the egg-crate and cleaned out all the sand. Then I filled the tank with fresh water and added bleach to kill anything left and drive anything out from the silicone or glass.
Next step was to make some plumbing changes to improve things that I'll post soon.

Many American's choose to celebrate from the comfort of their own home
IRON MOUNTAIN -- If you decide to stay home and keep it simple this New Year's Eve, you won't be the only one.
While many of us are getting prepared to go out, the majority choose to celebrate the festivities indoors.
CivicScience, a company that polls consumers on a weekly basis, polled a large sample of Americans this weekend and found:
- 33 percent have no plans
- 38 percent are staying home
- 3 percent will be hosting a party, and
- 14 percent will be attending a party
The poll also found that only 35 percent of Americans will be watching a New Year's Eve show.

But to your point, I agree completely. Having backups and recovering from them is almost always best.
Whither btrfsck?
Posted Oct 11, 2011 22:08 UTC (Tue) by terryburton (subscriber, #26261) [Link]
Posted Oct 12, 2011 6:27 UTC (Wed) by njs (guest, #40338) [Link]
Which isn't to say that fsck doesn't have its uses -- most people don't have proper backups in the first place, and after things go pear-shaped, fsck is your last hope. And it can be faster than restoring from backup. And perhaps btrfsck will be better than other fsck's, in that it could potentially use btrfs's hashes to give you a list of which files might be corrupted, so you can check them (or recover just them from a backup).
I'm just saying, fsck is nice to have, but it's not *that* critical.
Posted Oct 12, 2011 8:52 UTC (Wed) by rvfh (subscriber, #31018) [Link]
That's whole point isn't it? If the fsck is not able to restore the data and gives you crap instead, then it's useless, and that's why Chris does not want it in the wild!
We need fsck, and we need it to work correctly.
Posted Oct 12, 2011 18:43 UTC (Wed) by njs (guest, #40338) [Link]
But, IIUC, this is exactly what existing fsck's do. If they can recover data, great, but their main priority is to make the filesystem data structures internally consistent again. If that means randomly making up data that's missing, throwing away some files whose metadata got confused, etc., then oh well, too bad.
Hopefully btrfsck will have a mode where it uses the checksumming information to give you a guaranteed-accurate list of which files were left in an inconsistent state with potentially screwed up contents, but if so then that will be a fancy unique feature that has never been seen in a mainstream Linux fsck before. (And does btrfs even keep data checksums by default?)
I can understand why Chris doesn't want to release a known-buggy fsck, but let's be realistic about what a bug-free fsck actually does...

Please be careful when applying this patch, I think the server hog should be investigated?!
This is rubbish. Applying this patch means to make only the changes I did in revision 2303, and if you follow the "text changed" link in the URL I posted above, you'll see that the change was in two lines which in no possible way can affect the server load. However, you grabbed PivotX Latest (after my recommendation!) which contains many other changes ...
I'm not questioning the fact that using PivotX Latest might have given you problems with server load. It seems I might have had the same problem myself when upgrading one of my servers. We are looking at it.
I downgraded to earlier version (unfortunately losing the wzup and pivote count)
Why on earth did you loose those extensions? You can just copy the folders.
Addition: the problem seemed to start when I installed and tried Google Chrome.
Thx for the info, but you can relax - a specific browser can't cause higher server load. What can happen some times is that a web application can cause high load on the computer running the browser.

Oil Spill 2 years later
The 2 year anniversary of the Deep Water Horizon oil spill (pdf) was earlier this week. There are a number of studies being performed to determine the long term issues relating to the spill and it's clean up.
LSUHSC is a member of the Deepwater Horizon Research Consortium, a network of community and university partnerships that will conduct research on the gulf coast over the next 5 years. Specifically, the LSUHSC School of Public Health is conducting the Women and their Children's Health (WATCH) study, which will investigate the short and long term physical, mental and community health effects resulting from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
Additionally, LSU Baton Rouge is involved in measuring the economic and ecological impact of the spill.

Lambert in England action - as it happened
Updated 9:44pm Tuesday 10th September 2013 in Sport
This live event has finished
- Rickie Lambert plays the full 90 minutes as England draw 0-0 in Ukraine
- Saints striker had scored in previous two internationals
- Vital World Cup qualifier for England
- Lambert one of eight Saints star in international action today
- Osvaldo plays second half as Italy qualify for World Cup
Italy and Osvaldo have qualified for the World Cup
Full time for Poland and Italy as both Artur Boruc and Dani Osvaldo enjoy wins
Final few minutes now in Kiev.
Lambert hasn't had such a good day today. Service into him has been poor
It's 5-1 Poland with a goal from Adrian Mierzejewski
A couple of chances for Ukraine but they can't convert
Rickie Lambert in England action
Poland lead 4-1 through Piotr Zielinski
It's full time in Luxembourg as Steven Davis' Northern Ireland are beaten 3-2
It's not a classic in Kiev. Few chances for either team
Mathias Janisch might have scored the winner for Luxembourg against Northern Ireland. It's now 3-2
Two goals in three minutes at start of the half from Giorgio Chiellini and Mario Balotelli penalty means Italy now lead the Czech Republic 2-1
It's 2-2 for Northern Ireland as Gareth McAuley equalises with eight minutes remaining
Northern Ireland are now 2-1 down to Luxembourg. Stefan Bensi scored the goal on 78 minutes
Lambert squares up to a Ukraine player after fouling him
Osvaldo on for Italy at half time
The second half is underway
Steven Davis in action for Northern Ireland this evening
England have been the better team but no goals.
Lambert hasn't had great service but has done well
England win a free kick from 25 yards. Sadly Lambert isn't going to take it
England are starting to get the ball into Lambert with a little more purpose and he is holding it up well
Another goal for Poland as Waldemar Sobota makes it 3-1. Northern Ireland start the second half of their game with Luxembourg
Two quick goals in the Poland game. Alessandro Della Valle scores a surprise equaliser for San Marino past Artur Boruc but Poland retake the lead a minute later through Jakub Błaszczykowski.
Italy are 1-0 down to the Czech Republic. For now Dani Osvaldo can only watch on from the bench. Libor Kozak got the goal on 19 minutes
Back in Kiev, Lambert is waiting for some decent service
Luxembourg equalise just before half time against Steven Davis' Northern Ireland
Not a massive shock but Poland, who have Artur Boruc in goal, have taken the lead in San Marino
A lively start to the game from both teams but not a sniff for Lambert yet
Rickie Lambert and England are off and running in Kiev
Lambert and his England teammates are out on the pitch ready to do battle with Ukraine.
Northern Ireland have taken the lead courtesy of Martin Paterson...assist officially creidted to a certain Steven Davis
Northern Ireland have started their game - it kicked off at 7.15pm. Still goalless at the moment
Dani Osvaldo is on the bench for Italy's Group B game against Cazech Republic in Turin. If Italy win they book their spot at next year's World Cup in Brazil.
Steven Davis will captain Northern Ireland in their Group F World Cup qualifier in Luxembourg.
Artur Boruc starts in goal for Poland as they take on San Marino in Group H.
Full time in the Wales under-21 game.
Lloyd Isgrove played the full 90 minutes as they drew 0-0 with Moldova.
James Milner was recalled to the England starting line-up tonight as Roy Hodgson selected his expected side for the vital World Cup qualifier with Ukraine.
Danny Welbeck's absence through suspension created a vacancy from the team that defeated Moldova on Friday.
And, as he did against Moldova, Hodgson went for the additional defensive capabilities of Milner on the England left rather than the more attacking option of Ashley Young or untested Tottenham man Andros Townsend.
With the remainder of the England side remaining the same, it meant Frank Lampard became the eighth player to reach 100 caps.
At the head of Group H on goal difference from Montenegro, who are not in action this evening, victory would also take England four points clear of Ukraine with just two games remaining.
Whilst a point would not represent a bad evening's work, defeat would leave England facing a play-off at best, with Ukraine able to hold them off with maximum points next month even though the remaining matches for Hodgson's men are both at home, against Montenegro and Poland.
As previously reported on dailyecho.co.uk Roy Hodgson has been trying to play down Rickie Lambert's impact. A story from earlier today said...
England boss Roy Hodgson is keen not to pin all his World Cup hopes on Rickie Lambert's fairytale international career continuing.
With Danny Welbeck suspended and Wayne Rooney, Daniel Sturridge and Andy Carroll all ruled out by injury, Lambert will be pitched into the biggest game of his career tonight as England take on Ukraine in Kiev.
Whilst victory would take Hodgson's side within touching distance of an automatic slot in next year's finals, defeat would hand the initiative to their hosts, who still have another match against San Marino to play.
Hodgson could not wish for Lambert to be in more confident mood after becoming the first England player to score in his first two games since Peter Taylor 37 years ago.
But he also knows the run cannot last forever.
"I would like to play down Rickie for his own sake because it is almost a fairytale that you get selected at 31 having played in the lower leagues, then come on in your debut and score a fantastic centre-forward's goal," Hodgson said.
"On top of that you then play an important game, score one, set up two and look as though you have never been outside an England set up in your life.
"That is some achievement.
"I am bit worried we are going to hang a bit too much on him (tonight).
"The important thing is that he plays his part in the team and makes certain he doesn't let us down in any way.
"Who knows? He might surprise us and add a third to the fairytale, but if he doesn't he is still going to be a player England will get some use out of in the future."
England: Hart, Walker, Cole, Gerrard (c), Cahill, Jagielka, Walcott, Lampard, Lambert, Wilshere, Milner.
For the record the others away with their nations for games today are Steven Davis, Rickie Lambert, Artur Boruc, Dani Osvaldo and Gaston Ramirez.
Two Saints stars have already finished their international fixtures.
Maya Yoshida, who has found himself dropped down the pecking order so far this season, got a full 90 minutes as Japan defeated Ghana 3-1 in a friendly in Saitama. Shinji Kagawa, Yashuhito Endo and Keisuke Honda got the goals for Japan in the second half after Frank Acheampong had given Ghana a 24th minute lead.
The man who took Yoshida's place in the Saints team, £8.5m centre half Dejan Lovren, was also playing in Asia as Croatia took on South Korea.
Lovren played the whole game as Croatia won 2-1 with goals from Domagoj Vida and Nikola Kalinic doing the damage.
Lloyd Isgrove is currently in action for the Wales under-21 side as they play in Moldova. Isgrove started the game which kicked off at 5pm BST.
Hello and welcome to the Daily Echo's live coverage of Rickie Lambert's third England appearance against Ukraine in Kiev.
The Saints striker has scored in both of previous two appearances for his country.
A third would be very welcome for Roy Hodgson's men tonight as they play a crunch match in their World Cup qualifying campaign.
We will be providing live updates and images as the game progresses and keeping you abreast of the other Saints stars in international action today.

Rickie didn't do much then in terms of scoring goals but he worked his backside off, and that's exactly what he did today. He was chasing and pressing all game, which is less effective up front when it's him on his own.
It was a mustn't lose game - and we didn't.

This is 34 minute Documentary shot in a rural area in the heart of Colombia called "La Macarena", which was for a longtime a stronghold for the FARC Guerilla. It tells the story of a plan to help the farmers of the region who grew coca, to start growing licit crops and be again attached to the country's economy.
It is a journey trough La Macarena's amazing geography, and the touching testimonies of it's inhabitants, who take the viewer to the nightmares of their past, the transitional present, and their dreams for tomorrow.

The TASK_DELETE extension is associated with the task_delete directive. If this extension is defined in any static or dynamic extension set and a task is being deleted, then the extension routine will automatically be invoked by RTEMS. The extension should have a prototype similar to the following:
void user_task_delete( rtems_tcb *current_task, rtems_tcb *deleted_task );
where current_task can be used to access the TCB for the currently executing task, and deleted_task can be used to access the TCB for the task being deleted. This extension is invoked from the task_delete directive after the TCB has been removed from a ready TCB chain, but before all its resources including the TCB have been returned to their respective free pools. This extension should not call any RTEMS directives if a task is deleting itself (current_task is equal to deleted_task).

Oxford United midfielder set for surgery
4:31pm Tuesday 8th October 2013 in Sport By David Pritchard, Chief Sports Reporter covering Oxford United. Follow us on twitter: @oxfordmailoufc. Call me on 01865 425458
JON Meades is due to have surgery to correct an ankle injury after the Oxford United midfielder suffered a setback in his rehabilitation.
The 21-year-old tweeted from hospital in London this afternoon: "Ready to go under the knife. Hopefully sort my ankle out."
It is a blow for Meades, who damaged ligaments during a pre-season game against Coventry City in July.
Specialists at the time ruled out the need for surgery and the summer signing was expected to return by late October, but the latest development means he will have to wait longer for his competitive U's debut.

Mainstream rock
This article does not cite any references or sources. (April 2013) |
Mainstream rock (also known as heritage rock) is a radio format used by many commercial radio stations in the United States and Canada.
Format background[edit]
Mainstream rock stations are between classic rock and active rock on the programming spectrum, in that they play more classic rock focusing in on the 1970s, 1980s and the 1990s than active rock stations, but play more Current and Newer Rock than classic rock stations. Mainstream rock is a successor to the widespread album-oriented rock (AOR) format created in the 1970s.
As of 2013[update], some examples of mainstream rock stations in terrestrial radio include: KSHE/St. Louis, MO, KEGL/Dallas, TX, KRXQ/Sacramento, CA, KISS/San Antonio, TX, KDKB/Phoenix, AZ, KBER/Salt Lake City, UT, WDVE/Pittsburgh, PA, WHQG/Milwaukee, WI, WFYV-FM/Jacksonville, FL, CJAY/Calgary, Alberta, WAPL/Appleton, WI, KZRR/Albuquerque, NM, KEZO/Omaha, NE, WHJY/Providence, RI, KICT/Wichita, KS, KMOD/ Tulsa, OK, KTUX/Shreveport, LA, KZEL/Eugene, OR, and WIYY/Baltimore, MD. Most have a very long heritage that dates back to the 1970s as AOR stations, which is why several trades like Billboard and R&R will refer these stations as "Heritage Rock".
Outside of the United State and Canada, mainstream rock refers generally to rock music deemed 'radio friendly'. It very rarely is referred to as a specific radio format.
See also[edit]
- Active rock - like mainstream rock, but plays a lot of new hard rock and current heavy metal, though trending closer to new and upcoming "Active" artists.
- Classic rock - contributes to mainstream rock format, but more so than active rock.
- Alternative rock - contributes to new alternative rock format, but a lot less than active rock.

Hi there,
this is gonna take a minute :
I am studying Naval Architecture in Kiel , Germany with a special interest in tallships and traditional sailing boats . To finish my studys I have to do a final projekt , which in my case has something to do with the design of the Rigg of the Replica of the Five mast aux. France II .
Although the design of the rigg will be according to modern rules and regulations , it is required , that the looks of the proportions and the details are as close to the original as possible .
So I looked up the history of the France II in several books ( some of the books of Louis Lacroix , Alan Villiers , Jean Randier and Harold A. Underhill ) and I have got the plans that are made by Underhill , which are available at Brown Son and Ferguson of Glasgow . This gave me plenty of general information and some photographs ( of rather poor quality ) .
After these studys I know about what I am looking for :
Photos or drawings of rigging details ( fittings , deck equipment , details of the yards and crosstrees . . . ) of the France II ( or other french ships that were similar , like the 4 masted barques "Quevilly" and "Dunkerque" or the 3 masted barques of the "Croisset"-Type ( "Hautot" "Dieppedalle" "Biessard" "Nantes" ( which sails had the same dimensions like those of the France II )
Photos or drawings of winches ( for braces and halyards ) and Capstans of the France II or the ships mentioned above , or typical french
Information or contact to the manufacturers of the France II : MM Chantier de la Gironde
Information or contact to the manufacturers of the special 10-drum brace winches of the France II : MM Lesauvage et Patras of Le Havre ( who had the licence for building the Jarvis brace winches in Fance )
Information or contact to anyone that has photos or memoirs or whatever to figure out , what the ship looked like above .
Can anyone give hints on this ? Or maybe forward this letter to someone who might know something or somebody . . .
Thank you . Kind Regards JAN HUERKAMP

As I'm a runner, you've probably guessed that I'm a little excited about the new movie Fast Girls, about a women's 4 x 100m relay team (head on over to my other site Spikes and Heels to read a full review). Last week I had a chance to meet some of the cast for a chinwag. We talked about training, the rarity of having four female leads and what their event would be if they were competing in the Olympics for real. Check out what they had to say below.

The University's website, www.gu.se, was first launched in 1995. In autumn 2003 a website survey was carried out in order to acquire more knowledge about the expectations of the website users. A new website was launched in November 2005. In the long term we are working to enable the entire University to be adapted to the new appearance and structure.
Reasons for making the change included making it simpler for our different target groups to find information and to provide a clearer and more unified picture of Göteborg University.
The new publishing tool that we developed in parallel with the new appearance and structure provides Göteborg University with a greater possibility of raising the overall level of our expertise in working with our web pages. In this context we are thinking of language, manner of address, pictures, structure and accessibility.
If you have points of view and suggestions for how we can make our website better – get in touch! We are continually working on improving the website.
Responsibility for the content of each page is set out at the foot of the respective page.

Felecia Padgett says it takes "someone who really cares" to be a good mortician. "They should see it as a calling with a real understanding (that) this is someone's loved one," she says. "You have to have compassion, and you have to be professional."
What is the history behind Pinecrest Funeral and Cremation Services? On April 30, 2009, the 91-year-old Hamilton Porter Funeral Home of Hope Mills merged with Pinecrest Funeral and Cremation Services under the ownership of Citadel Management LLC. Kenneth Porter, the former owner of Hamilton Porter, now is funeral director emeritus of the business.
Why did you go into this area as a career? Greg Padgett grew up in a family-owned funeral business, Padgett Funeral Home, in Wallace. His wife, Felecia, had always worked in the medical profession and decided to return to school and help him. The couple moved to Hope Mills in 2010. "I just felt like it was a good opportunity," Felecia Padgett said. "We thought it was a pretty town. I love helping people."
Are you handling more burials or cremations at this time? Because of the economy, are more people using cremations over the traditional burial? "I think cremations are on the rise, and I think we're going to go in that direction because we live in a transient world. We encourage a family to spend time with their loved one and plan services. Even though you may choose cremation as a final disposition, you have options. We refer to ceremonial cremation."
What is probably the best business decision you ever made? Moving to Hope Mills from Wallace two years ago.
What would you say to someone who is interested in pursuing this as a livelihood? "That they need to realize it's a 24/7 job. You should be available to someone seven days a week. And you need to be very caring and remember that you're there to serve."
Owner: Citadel Management LLC of Greenville, S.C.
Managers: Greg and Felecia Padgett
Address: 4721 Dunrobin Road, Hope Mills
Founded: April 2009
Employees: Nine
What is it? Privately owned business that provides funeral and cremation services in the Cumberland County area.

Like an aircraft carrier flanked by escort ships, the gibbous Moon is flanked by a couple of bright groups of stars and planets tonight. They curve high across the south at nightfall, to the west around midnight, and to the northwest as they set in the wee hours of the morning.
As you face south at nightfall this evening, look to the left of the Moon for the star Regulus and the planet Saturn. Saturn is the brighter of the two, and has a slightly golden color.
Then look about the same distance to the right of the Moon for the bright twin stars of Gemini -- Pollux and Castor. The planet Mars is to their west, and looks like an orange star. One way to pick out the two planets is that unlike the stars, they barely twinkle -- their light holds steady.
Regulus, Pollux, and Castor all lie quite close to the ecliptic, which is the Sun's path across the sky. So the Moon passes close to these stars every four weeks -- an interval known as the sidereal month.
The planets are close to the ecliptic, too, but it takes them longer to circle back to the same stars. Mars, for example, will return to Gemini in about a year and a half. But Saturn is much farther out in the solar system, so its motion against the starry background is much slower. It won't return to the same spot close to Regulus for almost three decades.
The Moon will stand much closer to Regulus and Saturn tomorrow night -- and we'll have more about that tomorrow.
