Possibly (I remember some pictures and the like following linux expo type thingies and might have posted a possibly useless attachment or two myself over the years:-) but a) This is a HORRIBLE way to store/resend anything long -- it replicates the data N times where N can be a very large number, chewing through bandwidth and CPU to manage it. b) There are better ways to manage it, such as posting a URL.

Yeah, ditto this too. It does keep signal to noise maximally high, but... a lot of work. I really liked the idea of using gpg signatures to auth messages instead of the subscription address. Even if you implement this just on a whitelist basis, you should be able to WAY much cut down on both the delay of legitimate messages and the time you spend on the illegitimate ones. No registered signature, no access to the list. Subscription open but proctored via an "approval" process that is just slow enough and human oriented enough to keep out would-be spammers. That would be no more work than a message board -- in fact it would be the SAME work as a message board -- but it would let us keep the mailman/mail list format that is its appealing feature. Greg's suggestion is also intriguing -- message board for posting and email for distribution -- but it still adds another step and would I suspect significantly reduce list participation, possibly below the critical point. One amazing thing about this list is how LONG it has been productive. It's coming up on ten years now, isn't it? That's damn near infinity in this business. rgb -- Robert G.

Web-based server configuration with Webmin
The multifunctional Webmin configuration interface easily exceeds the scope of other open source graphical management tools. In our lab, Webmin proved extremely easy on resources: For example, I had no trouble installing the current version on a 10-year-old machine with a 300MHz CPU and 64MB of RAM, and the result was an amazingly stable and fast system.

For now, we'll keep this classified as unofficial. I've seen it on 3 different blogs now, but no official source: The earthquake caused damage at the Armed Forces Retirement Home, also known as the U.S. Soldiers' and Airmen's Home, a collection of historic buildings about five miles north of the U.S. Capitol that house a few hundred military veteran retirees. President Lincoln's Cottage, a National Trust historic site situated on the campus, suffered major structural cracks but no artifacts were broken, according to spokeswoman Allison Mitchell. The former president lived in the cottage, which sits on a hilltop, for many months during his presidency to escape the heat of Washington . Pieces fell from the exterior of the nearby soldiers' residence but the extent of the damage inside was unclear, Ms. Mitchell said. |

Oh, let's hope there's not "major" structural damage to the cottage. They just rennovated that in the last few years, didn't they? |

All of the sites are keep separate lists of clusters, > each incomplete, plus there's one at the Open Directory Project. > (I also hope this isn't much offtopic) As an owner of one of the cluster sites I have to agree. From my point of view, we have a bunch of 'clone' websites (including mine) that offer (more or less): - news - some discussion forums (not really successful compared to this list) - some documents (not many) On the other hand we have some very good mailing lists and newsgroups (like this one) with a bunch of very knowledgeable people willing to help others and discuss clustering/parallel/beowulf/whatever topics, _but_ lacking of a decent support for things other than mail discussions (after all is only mailing list). And I understand that some people won't like to switch between mail-web site #1-web site #2-etc... My point is that if we want to have additional services and features for our community we have to discuss what _we_ want and _how_ and _where_ we want it. Right now we have a group of sites 'wasting bandwith' (not trying to be rude) and doing less service than they could. I (and I'm pretty sure Bogdan and other site-owners) are willing to work on this, after all, that's why we created our sites, right?. My proposal, based on Greg's ideas, is: - - leave discussions where they belong, that is, the newsgroups and mailing lists. - - Create web interfaces for the discussion groups mentioned above. That would centralize more or less the discussions - - Poll the comunity to find out what we want and we don't have yet. A document archive?. More news?. A cluster list?. A vendors lists?. jobs? web space to cluster user groups? - - _Distribute_ all the proposed job between the existing cluster sites willing to work based on the resources available on each site . Make clear what part belongs to what site and try not to duplicate efforts (maybe a central list of pointers to resources like beowulf.org, or the IE3 TFCC site?) I don't know if this could work or not, but I just wanted to share my ideas. Regards > If I were going to design a website for our community, I'd try to work > with the existing stuff.

OTTUMWA, IOWA -- You will be seeing kids walking across the school cross walks and unloading from buses on Wednesday for the first day of school in the Ottumwa Community Schools District.
With around 4,500 students in the district, Superintendent Davis Eidahl said that numbers have slowly dipped each year around ½ percent.
"But were excited about this big incoming kindergarten class to kind of stabilize or even increase our numbers," said Eidahl.
With bigger enrollment also comes the need for more resources.
"So ensuing that we have the resources in place and we have a very -- a policy, a guideline -- that we do as best to maintain small class sizes. So with a large kindergarten class coming in, just ensuing that we have the right amount of teachers and we can keep those class sizes small," said Eidahl.
Eidahl said the district continues to emphasize increasing graduation rates through early childhood programs and through that fifth and sixth-grade transition.
"And most important is the eighth and ninth-grade transition. So a lot of transition work, a lot of emphasis on raising our achievement and graduation rate and we also are doing that through focusing on improvement of culture and climate in our building," said Eidahl.
With the new elementary school set to open its doors in August of 2012, Eidahl said the district is already hard at work for next year's school year.

from the use-the-nice-ones-not-naughty dept.
Bennettt Haselton has a gift idea for this year that needn't necessarily cost you any money (if you have a color printer available), though as he points out there are ways to invest in a higher-quality result. The gift? A unique picture created with a few pieces of free software and a bit of your time. Bennett writes:
"You can use these little-known free programs to create a photomosaic of a friend's
wedding photo or other favorite photograph, for a uniquely personal gift that
doesn't cost much but can still delight. Follow these steps to use
the programs most effectively and get the best results."
Read on for the rest.

Nice, heavy machine, needs designated space. Wheel is easy to crank. I like that the Sizzix machine also accepts Accuquilt dies.
Overstock had the best price on this tool for my scrapbooking. I had priced it for months and finally went with overstock because they had the best price and FREE shipment. This tool is the one that every serious papercrafter needs...and wants. It is not mobile when cutting and the crank turns like a dream. And that is important to someone who has a touch of arthritis in the shoulders. One great feature is that you can cut multiples of dies at the same time.
im very happy with overstock. it only took 6 days to get to me. thats fast. the box was super heavy, they did a great job cushioning the product. the only negative thing i have to say, is everything smelt sorta musty. im thinking the warehouse maybe has a musty smell to it. but i was extremly happy with overstocks customer service. they helped me alot. even gave me a credit. i cant be more thrilled. and of course i will be buying from them again. thanks so much overstock
Great so flag I purchased sizzix. Instruction book stated folding tool was included but it was not. Sizzix needs to redo booklet .

Ambient combat in demo worked for me, but just once, after 15 mins of play, and it spawned small patrol of insurgents. I wondered around for 15 more minutes, and nothing else spawned. Now I found codes for increasing the intensity...
but the problem is these are external, and since arma2 demo cannot save missions, there is no folder you can put them in!//The intensity value should be a Number between 0.0 and 1.0.
[<intensity | Number>, <ACM reference | Object>] call BIS_ACM_setIntensityFunc;
So is there a way to increase intesity of combat module in in-game editor?

Unified physical and virtual IT management for midsized businesses
I ran into an interesting issue the other day and thought I would post it here in case anyone else happened to see it. The issue is that if you use System Center Essentials 2007 (SCE) to manage computers in your environment, when you select a specific computer in the admin console it will try to display the information in the details pane but will ultimately crash with the error message below:
Description: Stopped working
Problem signature: Problem Event Name: CLR20r3 Problem Signature 01: B0JHPZQR1B3GGBEMYEIFSKRWRQLFYWDD Problem Signature 02: 6.0.1885.0 Problem Signature 03: 47be30a3 Problem Signature 04: mscorlib Problem Signature 05: 22.214.171.124 Problem Signature 06: 4bf4c743 Problem Signature 07: f4f Problem Signature 08: 7 Problem Signature 09: N3CTRYE2KN3C34SGL4ZQYRBFTE4M13NB OS Version: 6.0.6002.2.2.0.272.7 Locale ID: 1033
Read our privacy statement: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=50163&clcid=0x0409
Note that selecting other computers works just fine, but whenever you select that problem computer the console will keep crashing while trying to display its information. Also when trying to run Reports for Deployment status, the reports will not work and will error out.
This can be caused by wrong information being reported by the video card driver. In this case, this happened because when SCE collected software and hardware inventory of that computer, the video card driver from that system reported an invalid value (e.g. a negative value) for the video card memory. For example, on a working computer it will show a value as 256 MB, but on a problem computer it may show a negative value such as -340473856 for Adapter RAM.
This can be seen by running Hardware Inventory report (SCE console –> Reporting pane) for that computer and selecting to see video card information.
The ideal fix is to update the display driver on that computer or change it to a new one.
An alternate option is to update WSUS. This problem occurs when using WSUS 3.0 Service Pack 1 (3.1.6001.65) as it stores values in SUSDB as it's received (i.e. negative values), but in WSUS 3.0 Service Pack 2 (WSUS 3.2.7600.226), it takes care of such negative values and does not store the invalid values in SUSDB.
Once you update WSUS from SP1 to SP2, it updates SUSDB immediately, and then your SCE console will not crash anymore while trying to display information for that computer.
Reports for deployment status will also start working fine once this is done.
You can download WSUS 3.0 SP2 from this link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=a206ae20-2695-436c-9578-3403a7d46e40

The installation of SCE 2007 SP1 blocks with a warning "WSUS Valid Date". This happens because the WSUS 3.0 SP1 image present on the SCE 2007 SP1 DVD is expired in October 2010. This blog lists the steps to download and install WSUS 3.0 SP2 to unblock and complete the installation of SCE 2007 SP1.
On running SetupSCE.exe from the SCE 2007 SP1 DVD, the installation of SCE stops on the prerequisites check page with the warning: "Current WSUS Version is Out of Date". The NEXT option on the prerequisite check page is disabled (as shown in the screenshot below):
This happens because the WSUS 3.0 SP1 Present on the SCE 2007 SP1 DVD has expired and needs to be replaced with WSUS 3.0 SP2. The steps involved for downloading WSUS 3.0 SP2 and unblocking the installation of SCE 2007 SP1 are as follows:
1. Download the appropriate WSUS 3.0 SP2 package from the Knowledge Base Article: KB972455 at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=161140
2. Copy all the files from the SCE 2007 SP1 DVD onto a local folder on the machine, like C:\SCE 2007 SP1.
3. Replace the existing WSUS.exe in the Setup folder of SCE 2007 SP1 present in the local folder on the machine created in step 2 (C:\SCE 2007 SP1) with the WSUS3.0 SP2 KB article package downloaded in Step 1.
4. Run SetupSCE.exe from the SCE Setup present in the local folder on the machine created in Step 2.
5. The Installation Prerequisites page still shows the warning message "Current WSUS Version is out of date". But the NEXT option is enabled and we can go ahead with the installation of SCE ignoring this warning message.
6. Proceed with the remaining pages on the SCE 2007 SP1 wizard to complete the installation of SCE 2007 SP1.
7. The version of WSUS installed is WSUS 3.0 SP2. This can be checked in the WSUS properties once the installation of SCE 2007 SP1 completes.

Worcestershire homes can show posters over Halloween
7:24am Wednesday 30th October 2013 in News By Gema Bate
CHILDREN trying to buy eggs and flour throughout the Halloween holiday could be refused by stores unless they are with an adult.
A campaign of West Mercia and Warwickshire Police forces urges shops to be on their guard when anyone under the age of 18 attempts to buy the products, in a bid to tackle Halloween pranks.
Posters have been given out by local policing teams.
Dylan Evans, police communications manager at Warwickshire and West Mercia police, said the posters would be available to use if there had been a history of problems in the shop or area, but none had been specifically requested in Worcester.

The Co-operative, in the Bullring, St John's, Worcester, said they had taken part in the initiative before but were not doing so this year.
Richard Brixey, store manager, said: "We don't ban them [under 18s] we just take a common sense approach. We ask our staff to be vigilant.
"We are always cautious at this time and the last thing we want to do is cause trouble for the local residents and if we do think the produce would be used for pranks, we won't sell it."
Safer Neighbourhood Teams across the policing areas will also be handing out 'Sorry, No Trick or Treat' leaflets for residents who do not want to be disturbed by trick-or-treaters.

text: In a casino, as in most aspects of life, few things are a sure bet. Yet, when it comes to matters of health, people want — and often expect — certainty. We'd like to think that if we see a doctor for a symptom, we'll leave the office knowing what we have, what we do not have, how to treat it, and confident that the treatment will work without side effects. In addition, we'd like to know how long it will take for the problem to get better and whether or not it will return. In reality, leaving your doctor's office is often a bit more like entering the casino: even the best doctor can usually provide only possibilities, chances, or a likelihood that a condition is present, that other conditions are absent, and that a specific treatment will work. In fact, you may hear the word "empiric" to describe the treatment approach. It means a therapy will be chosen based on your doctor's experience, rather than a treatment that is well studied and scientifically proven — a "best guess" about what might work well. If it doesn't work, another treatment will be recommended and so on, through a series of mini-experiments of trial and error to see which works best. This is often the way things go when there is either no single "best" treatment for your diagnosis, or when the diagnosis is uncertain. Both are exceedingly common in medical practice because uncertainty is so pervasive. Although most of my colleagues are not gamblers, doctors often deal with risk, chance and odds. For example, your doctor might evaluate your headache and think the chance of a brain tumor is very low, perhaps one in a million. While there is some small chance that there is a brain tumor, your doctor may elect to pursue other possibilities and treatments rather than ordering multiple tests that could detect a tumor. You might wonder: Why not just order everything and see what turns up? In fact, some doctors do. But extensive testing for common conditions with no known cause (like most cases of headache) is time-consuming, expensive, potentially dangerous (see below), and produces little or no benefit. And because there are so many potential causes of a symptom, testing for every possible cause might literally be endless. So, your doctor weighs the risk of missing an important or serious condition against the likelihood of that condition based on your symptoms, examination and available test results. This acceptance of risk, dealing with chance, and embracing uncertainty is business as usual for most doctors. If you've ever been admitted to a hospital or seen your doctor while you were sick, you may have experienced this uncertainty firsthand. Fields of Medicine, a Range of Uncertainty One of my classmates in medical school chose oncology, the specialty dealing with cancer, as a career path. When I asked him why, he said it was because he did not deal well with uncertainty and most oncologists only see patients who are known to have cancer. While all fields of medicine deal with uncertainty, some have more than others. In the practice of rheumatology (the specialty dealing with arthritis and related disorders), doctors may see patient after patient without making a diagnosis, a far different situation compared with oncology. There's still plenty of uncertainty in all fields of medicine, and most good doctors get comfortable dealing with it. When Your Doctor Doesn't Have the Answer One of the biggest challenges for patients is accepting the fact that their doctor may not have the answer, may not know a single best, highly effective treatment for their problems, and may not be able to tell them what to expect. So, while doctors may get used to the notion that uncertainty is common, patients may believe it is a sign of incompetence, inexperience or insecurity. The truth is that doctors are frequently unsure. Some of what your doctor may be saying to you is that he or she is uncertain, but in that uncertainty, there is still useful information. One setting in which this comes up nearly every day is medication side effects. When I review the risks and benefits of a medication with my patients, I often hear appropriate concerns regarding side effects: "I don't want to take this if it's going to bother my stomach," for example. Because I mentioned stomach upset as a possible side effect, many people assume that it routinely happens; the fact is that there's a chance, typically low (for example, in the range of 5% or 10%), that a medication will cause significant stomach trouble. In addition, it's often impossible to predict who will or won't have that side effect. So, it's my job to communicate the chance that a side effect will occur while making it clear that most people never have that problem. Another common scenario is an abnormal test result. Because "normal" is defined for many tests as the average result for 95% of the healthy population, 5% of the healthy population has abnormal results. Hearing that your abnormal result "may be nothing to worry about" is not completely reassuring, but that's often the best your doctor can say about it. No test is perfect, so even when abnormal, a single, clear interpretation of that abnormality may not be possible. Anyone with an abnormal mammogram that turned out to be insignificant or meaningless knows the anxiety and fear inspired by the uncertainty of an imperfect test. And there's an even darker side of imperfect tests: when a result is normal but the disease is present. Mammograms may be normal in a minority of patients with breast cancer. This sort of uncertainty is difficult to accept but lurks in the background of every discussion about test results. When the Search for Certainty Is Harmful The quest for a definite answer or an absolute declaration of "truth" may not only be fruitless, frustrating, and expensive — it can cause harm. Here's an example. Imagine that you have been having headaches for years and lately they have been worse. Maybe it's the stress at work, or the way you sit for hours in front of the new computer, or one of many other possible explanations. It's entirely reasonable to see your doctor, review your symptoms in detail, and have a physical examination. Tests or referrals to other health care professionals may be recommended, or they may not, depending on the symptoms and examination findings. At the end of the evaluation, you may get a diagnosis of "tension headache," but you wonder, "Could it be something else? I've always had stress, why are my headaches worse now? And my boss has more stress than I do; why doesn't she have headaches?" For the vast majority of people with headaches, there are no definitive answers to these questions. Even if you were sent for extensive testing and consultation, there's an excellent chance you'd be no further along in your knowledge than when you started. And if you do have a CT scan or MRI for your headache, there's a chance that it will be abnormal in a way that will not account for your headache but could lead to more tests, worry, anxiety, and, yes, more stress. It is not rare for tests to show abnormalities that turn out to be unimportant;, however, these abnormalities are not known to be meaningless when first detected, so additional tests, including surgical biopsy or other "invasive testing" and weeks or months of worry, may follow. While the effort to eliminate uncertainty is understandable, that effort can do more harm than good. Medical textbooks often describe a condition (or even define it) based on the average experience of many patients thought definitely to have had that disease; "expert consensus" is often used to establish the diagnosis in those patients, with the experts being nationally recognized clinicians who regularly take care of such patients. In order to establish a standard definition, these patients tend to have similar features. In "real life," however, many people do not fit the classic description — we often joke that "the patient did not read the textbook." In addition, over a career, physicians often encounter situations that they have never seen or heard of before. Even after seeing specialists in reputable academic hospitals, it is not rare to have an undiagnosed problem. These cases are the ultimate in uncertainty but are by no means rare. The "gold standard" is a concept commonly embraced by doctors — it's the best evidence there is, the ultimate defining features or crucial characteristic for a particular condition or disease. Some situations are black and white. A biopsy, for example, can show cancer (or not), and most of the time the reading is clearly one or the other. The biopsy is the gold standard, and there is generally little uncertainty about the diagnosis. However, there are times when the reading of the biopsy is not clear-cut, when doctors disagree about the presence of cancer and suggest additional specialized tests on the tissue or even another biopsy. Here, the gold standard is not good enough to be sure of what is going on. Another common scenario is that many conditions or diseases have gold standards, but they are not truly "gold" — they are imperfect, prone to error. For example, for the syndrome called fibromyalgia, the gold standard is a list of criteria designed for research studies; however, these criteria were not intended to be applied to an individual patient in the office, because they do not perform particularly well in that setting. Yet, it's the best we have — it's the gold standard though not a particularly accurate one. In practice, the diagnosis of fibromyalgia relies on the judgment of an individual physician. Because judgment can vary widely, and doctors may disagree, uncertainty regarding a diagnosis is common in conditions without a highly accurate gold standard. When you see your doctor, don't expect certainty. The notion that an authoritative, all-knowing doctor will announce your diagnosis and treatment with supreme confidence — and that he or she will be correct — is an unrealistic expectation promoted by movies and television, one that does not reflect real life in real time at the doctor's office. For much of medical care, there simply is no gold standard; fortunately, there is a lot your health care professional can provide for you even when he or she is uncertain. And if a condition does not respond as quickly as expected or if symptoms change, your doctor will re-evaluate you. As long as you and your doctor keep an open mind about the situation, uncertainty can be manageable. The next time you see your doctor, don't be surprised if he or she uses terms such as "possible," "potential," "likely," or "maybe." While it may sound like your doctor is hedging his or her bets, what your doctor is probably saying is that each patient is different, there is much that remains unknown, and your situation is still unclear. Not knowing is certainly unsettling, but uncertainty is probably the only sure thing in medicine. Robert H.

13 Meetup Groups match "Acoustic Jams" near Saratoga, CA
Meetup details are available only to members.
I'm inspired by people like Cathy Nguyen, AJ Rafael, and others and the fun videos they post of getting together and just jamming and singing together. I've always thought it'd be so cool to have a group of musicians and singers in their 20's and 30's who would want to get together in a house or public place and play some awesome music together!
Gathering of acoustic guitarists, singers and songwriters to share songs, try new gear, meet local guitarists and socialize. Open to all ages and abilities. Spawned from the Acoustic Guitar Forum.
This group is for people who like to play instruments and or sing for fun. All skill levels welcome. I am generally thinking of this as neighborhood group for the Berkeley/Oakland area. I live at Telegraph and Alcatraz and I will host the first 2 jams just to get things started, then if anyone else in the area would like to host that would be great. The songs will come from 3 sources: 1. Rise Up Singing. This is a classic sing along book with 1200 pop and folk tunes – lyrics and chords. I have …

OK, so you live in the suburbs, but you're not quite dead yet. You still want to meet new people and you still want to go out on the occasional Friday night (or god forbid, a random Tuesday night) and you still want to have a drink, socialize and listen to a little live music (remember when you used to do that?). But you don't want to drive to Oakland or San Francisco. So where do you go, right? This Meetup is about finding some great restaurants, pubs, wine bars, dive bars, etc. and have some n …

Telling stories saves lives
Monday, October 11th, 2010LGBT activist Dan Savage and his partner Terry Miller have started a storytelling movement. The "It Gets Better Project" on YouTube, begun in response to the recent highly publicized series suicides of gay teenagers, has inspired hundreds of people to tell their stories on camera.
The concept is simple and very effective. Savage and Miller sat in front of a camera and started talking. They told about their awful experiences being bullied as teenagers, how it got so much better and about their lives together today.
Then they invited other people to send in their video testimonials. According to the October 9 Los Angeles Times, "Since Sept. 21, the channel has clocked more than 1.2 million views. More than 650 people young and old, gay and straight, religious and atheist, have submitted their own stories".
Facebook has at least two pages devoted to the stories. There's the It Gets Better Project that quotes Harvey Milk, "You gotta give 'em hope," and the Make it Better Project.
Several celebrities have made videos telling their personal stories including Neil Patrick Harris, Kathy Griffin and the cast of Wicked. Ellen DeGeneres said that four teen suicides in a row should be considered a crisis and that this needs to be a wakeup call for all of us to help our teens.
You can go to the It Gets Better Project website where you can post your own video story.
There are several supportive communities on Facebook including the It Gets Better Project that quotes Harvey Milk, "You gotta give 'em hope," and the Make it Better Project. Even the White House is talking about teen suicide. From the official website, "Senior Advisor to the President Valerie Jarrett spoke at the annual national dinner of the Human Rights Campaign to directly address the recent tragedies surrounding youth who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender."
This is an amazing example of the simple act of telling our stories being one of the best way to reach out to people.
If you are a teen being bullied or know one, reach out for help. In Tucson contact Eon, Wingspan's youth program, 520-624-1779 ext 127 or email@example.com. Nationally visit The Trevor Project or call its national 24-hour, toll free confidential suicide hotline for gay and questioning youth at 1-866-488-7386.

- Social Media Marketing (SMM) is the process of gaining website traffic or attention through social media sites. Social media marketing programs usually center on efforts to create content that attracts attention and encourages readers to share it with their social networks. A corporate message spreads from user to user and presumably resonates because it appears to come from a trusted, third-party source, as opposed to the brand or company itself. Hence, this form of marketing is driven by word-of-mouth, meaning it results in earned media rather than paid media.
- Social Media Networking (SMN) allows users to share ideas, activities, events and interests within their individual networks. Online communities are sometimes considered as social networks. In the broader sense, a social media network means individual-centered, whereas, an online community means group-centered. An social media network is an online service, platform, or site that focuses on the building and reflecting of social networking or social relations among people who share interests and/or activities.

Green Bay Packers Releasing Financial Data: Newest Shareholders Awash In Anticipation
Update: The Financial data has been released. The Packers' operating profit skyrocketed from 12 million thye previuos fiscal year to 43 million over the last 12 months. Full details can be found on Packers.com.
Every year the Green Bay Packers are required to release the financial data of the NFL's only publicly owned team, and this year is no different. According to Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk.com, the Packers will release last year's financial numbers Tuesday afternoon.
The report will straddle both 2011 and 2012, and according to Florio, the numbers will most likely show a revenue increase for Green Bay. This is great news for Green Bay because despite the poor economy and playing in a smaller market, the Packers still show an increase.
However, the bigger issue is Florio, a respected media member, and the overall attitude of many for how the Packers have reached their financial success.
Florio's tone throughout the report would have you believe that the Packers are ripping people off by selling them stock that means absolutely nothing. However, what Florio doesn't, and honestly can't, understand is the passion that Packers' fans have for their beloved team.
Florio states that Green Bay raised $67 million by selling sheets of paper for $250 each. What Florio calls a piece of paper, we call a piece of the franchise that we love.

The Facts about Diabetes
What is diabetes? Diabetes means your body either cannot make or properly use insulin. Insulin is the hormone your body uses to break down sugar and fat. When the body can't break down sugar and fat, serious problems can result.
There are two types of diabetes.
- Type 1, which happens mostly in children and young adults, is when the body does not produce insulin
- Type 2, the most common type, is when the body cannot properly use the insulin it produces

Magic was part of the daily life on this continent. Many people used it for common duties, but others wielded the magic to higher levels. These people are known as wizards. Wizards tend to congregate into guilds with a common interest.
The sun caressed the rolling hills of Fiore with its beautiful rays. A slight breeze rustled the trees. Life was bustling within the limits of Magnolia Town. A small town with only a single magic guild known as Fairy Tail. Within view of the town, a girl sat surrounded by flowers. She wore a short, white skirt. Her tribal top had a picture of the sun made of beads on her right breast and showed her stomach and back. Moccasin boots that came to mid calf covered her feet, adored with beads. Her white hair was pulled into a loose ponytail, with bangs coming down the side. Her skin was pale and her features, soft. She had a gifted chest on her slim body. Her intense blue eyes stared out into the forest.
"The forest seems... sad." Her voice was calm and soft. "What could it be? Maybe if I found out, I could join Fairy Tail. But, more importantly, the forest hurts." She brushed her hand gently across the flowers around her, almost of if she had petted them. "Guess I should go investigate the forest... but there's monsters inside. People have been going missing recently..." Making a face of determination, she stood up. When she stood, the flowers in-circling her faded into the wind. "I have to go. I, Tikahl Sky, can't let this go unanswered. Especially if I want to be a Fairy Tail wizard!" With that, she began walking to the forest, unsure what laid before her.

Archbishop presses May on same-sex marriage
ARCHBISHOP Peter Smith of Southwark met the Home Secretary Theresa May on Monday to discuss the Government's plans to introduce same-sex marriage.
The archbishop said that he wanted to clarify why the Government believed such legislation was needed.
He said that he could not see the point of the legislation given that civil partnerships already offer broadly the same legal rights as marriage.
But during their 40-minute meeting, he said, Mrs May seemed unable to answer his question. "I suspect the Government hasn't really thought out why the definition of marriage should be changed," he said.
He explained that a steering committee of the bishops' conference was to meet on Wednesday to plan how to campaign against the Government's plans.
He met the Home Secretary alongside William Fittall, secretary general of the Church of England's General Synod. The meeting had been suggested by the Church of England.
During the conversation Mrs May clarified that the Government intended to introduce same-sex marriage and that the consultation, scheduled to begin in March, was to help with the "nuts and bolts" of the legislation.
Archbishop Smith also asked Mrs May about reported comments by Mike Weatherley, MP for Hove and Portslade, that churches which refuse to marry gay couples should be stripped of their marriage licences.
Mrs May said that was "not Government policy at all", according to the archbishop.
He also said that Mrs May was "happy to continue the discussions" and that they would meet again after the contents of the consultation had been published.
The archbishop, who is the chairman of the bishops' Department for Christian Responsibility and Citizenship, said the move to redefine marriage raised "a fundamental question for the whole of society".

Cardinal wants Government to block abortion advertisements
ENGLAND'S most senior Catholic cleric has accused regulators of "encouraging abortions" by allowing private clinics to seek business through television and radio advertisements.
Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor severely criticised the Advertising Standards Authority for loosening the rules to allow clinics which carry out abortions for profit to advertise their services through the broadcast media.
He said that the move, introduced under pressure from the Broadcast Committee of Advertising Practice (BCAP), would lead only to an increase in the number of abortions in a nation already shamed by a high rate of terminations.
"I utterly oppose anything that leads to more abortions," said Cardinal MurphyO'Connor, the Emeritus Archbishop of Westminster.
"We have 200,000 a year," he said. "This seems to be encouraging more people to have abortions and I think that's a terrible thing."
He added that it was vitally important for Christians to do all they could to oppose the deregulation.
"Anything we can do to influence public opinion and to influence the Government we should do it," he said.
The cardinal spoke after delivering a sermon on Christian unity to a congregation of nearly 700 people in Chester's Anglican cathedral.
In his homily he urged Christians to persevere in defending human life from conception until natural death.
"Time and time again, together, we must proclaim, in season and out of season, the dignity of the human person
We have 200,000 abortions a year. This seems to be encouraging more people to have them
For the latest Catholic news, visit CatholicHerald.co.uk made in the image of God from conception to the end of life," the cardinal said.
Encouraging the faithful to withstand the pressure of aggressive secularism, he added that Christians must also assert that "all that is implied in our belief in God is alive, active and relevant in today's secular society".
Cardinal Murphy-O'Connor, 79, led the Catholic Church in England and Wales from 2000 to 2009 when he retired on grounds of age.
He was a frequent critic of Britain's abortion laws and in 2006 he met Patricia Hewitt, then Labour's Health Secretary, in an unsuccessful attempt to persuade the Government to give MPs a free vote on lowering the upper time limit of 24 weeks for abortions.
The cardinal is still a serving member of Vatican dicasteries and is eligible to vote at any conclave for the next pope until he turns 80 in August.
The changes in the advertising rules on abortion are understood to be opposed by Jeremy Hunt, the Culture Secretary, but he is reportedly unable to over-ride the independent advertising regulator.
They have also angered pro-life groups. Mark Bhagwandin, spokesman for Life, the pro-life counselling charity, said: "Our principal concern about advertising abortion services is to do with the normalisation of what is, by any measure, a serious procedure.
"Whatever one's opinion of abortion, the fact is that it ends the life of an existing human individual and we ought therefore to resist any measure that tends to trivialise it, or to make it appear as inconsequential as other consumer choices. Editorial comment: Page 13
Pope tells US bishops: secularism is threatening religious freedom
POPE BENEDICT XVI has warned US bishops that "radical secularism" threatens the core values of American culture and called on Catholics to render "public moral witness" on crucial social issues.
The Pope was speaking to a group of bishops who were in Rome for their ad limina visits.
Opening with a dire assessment of American society, Benedict XVI said that
"powerful new cultural currents" had worn away a traditional moral consensus which was originally based on faith and ethical principles derived from natural law. Whether they claim the authority of science or democracy, the Pope said, militant secularists seek to stifle the Church's proclamation of these "unchanging moral truths". Such a movement inevitably leads to the prevalence of "reductionist and totalitarian readings of the human person and the nature of society". The Pope contrasted current "notions of freedom detached from moral truth" and Catholicism's "rational perspective" on morality, founded on the conviction that the "cosmos is possessed of an inner logic accessible to human reasoning". Using the "language" of natural law, he said, the Church should promote social justice by "proposing rational arguments in the public square".
Coming at the start of an election year, Pope Benedict directly referred to "that most cherished of American freedoms, the freedom of religion".
The Pope said that bishops had told him of "concerted efforts" against the "right of conscientious objection... to cooperation in intrinsically evil practices" – an apparent reference to the decision by the US government that all private health insurance plans must cover sterilisation. Vatican Notebook: Page 4 Report: Page 5
Pope: only in silence can God's love sink in
AMID the deluge of information and chatter in today's media, the Church must help people find havens of silence, Pope Benedict XVI has said.
He made the comment in his message for World Communications Day, which is celebrated on May 20. In silence, he said, "we are better able to listen to and understand ourselves; ideas come to birth and acquire depth". Benedict said that silence was also key to evangelisation, and that only in silence can God's grandeur, love and mercy sink in.
He also hailed the potential of social media and said that "profound thoughts" could be communicated in concise phrases. Books: Page 15

(N.) A state that is far worse than standard doom. If you are having an experience revolving around doomba, then it is your extreme displeasure to be experiencing it.
A Doomba is an amalgamation of the Roomba; a series of autonomous cleaning devices made by the company iRobot and various weapons such as knives, chainsaws and fireams which are strapped or somehow attached to the machine. The word "Doomba" comes from the merging of the words "Doom" and the previously mentioned "Roomba". This has recently become popular on various Internet sharing sites.
"Hey Johnny, I strapped some knives to your mom's Roomba, let's watch it go around the room."
"Yeah, now it's a DOOMBA"
"Yeah, now it's a DOOMBA"
A Doomba is a death dealing floor cleaning robot. A Roomba (the popular floor cleaning robot) is outfitted with various dangerous items taped to it such as knives, cats, saw blades and blow guns.

Citizen panel gears up to review ballot measure claims
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - Oregon voters get bombarded every two years with dramatic claims and counter-claims over the latest crop of ballot measures. Now, a panel of citizens is coming to the rescue.
The state Legislature last year voted to keep and expand an experiment with hiring average voters to cut through the drama and offer an objective view of ballot measures. The new 24-member Citizens' Initiative Review Commission held its first meeting Wednesday in Portland.
It's too early to know which initiatives will collect enough signatures before next month's deadline to qualify for the ballot, but officials said there will probably be enough money for two of them to get an exhaustive review. The citizens' analysis will go into the voter pamphlet mailed to all electors.
"I'm excited to be involved with it, because it's a sophisticated effort to deal with the challenges of informing the electorate," said Jim Huffman, one of four people appointed to a bipartisan panel that oversees the process. Huffman, a Republican, unsuccessfully challenged U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden in 2010.
The citizen review process was tried twice before — informally in 2008 and with the Legislature's temporary blessing in 2010. State lawmakers decided last year to keep it around indefinitely, but they provided no state funds. Instead, donors and foundations pay the bill of roughly $100,000 per initiative reviewed.
The Citizens' Initiative Review Commission will create the rules that regulate the system and determine which ballot measures get a review, but the analysis will be done by panels of citizens staged to match the demographics and partisan makeup of the electorate.
The 24 citizens will meet for a week and hear extensive arguments from advocates on either side of a ballot measure, as well independent experts. They'll then craft a recommendation for the rest of the electorate based on their in-depth analysis. Participants will be paid $150 for their service.
The goal is to "elevate the debate," said Tyrone Reitman, director of Healthy Democracy, an organization that has lobbied for the concept and is likely to be heavily involved in planning and facilitating the review sessions.
A number of initiatives are on track to qualify for the ballot this year. They include proposals to ban gillnet fishing, legalize marijuana, eliminate the corporate "kicker" tax law, prohibit real estate transfer taxes and authorize non-tribal casinos.
Proponents say the citizens panels are providing a valuable service, but not everyone's convinced.
"I think the jury is still out on whether it has any effect on the way that voters make decisions about initiatives," said Scott Moore, spokesman for Our Oregon, a liberal group that's heavily involved in ballot measure campaigns.

More About Breathe by Sarah CrossanOverview
The world has no air. If you want to survive, you pay to breathe. But what if you can't? And what if you think everything could be different? Three teens will leave everything they know behind in Sarah Crossan's gripping and original dystopian teen novel of danger, longing, and glimmering hope that will appeal to fans of Patrick Ness and Veronica Roth.
National Book Award Finalist Kathleen Duey called Breathe "An amazing story Sit down. Inhale. Now, while you still can." Ever since the Switch, when the oxygen levels plummeted and most of humanity died, the survivors have been protected in glass domes full of manufactured air. Protected . . . or trapped? Or controlled? Alina's a revolutionary who believes we can save the environment. Quinn's a Premium who's never had to worry about having enough air. His best friend, Bea, is an Auxiliary who's never worried about anything but having enough air. When the three cross paths, they will change everything. Sarah Crossan's thrilling and provocative novel is about passion, about yearning for something better, and about breaking free for the very first time. The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books proclaims it an "action-packed dystopian series opener to watch out for."

In the start of a new trilogy, Crossan explores a dystopian world in which oxygen is a rare commodity, strictly controlled by the government of a domed city that houses much of the world's diminished population. Sixteen-year-old Quinn, a wealthy Premium, and his best friend Bea, one of the city's many underprivileged Auxiliaries, are about to embark on a camping trip outside the pod when they meet Alina, part of a band of rebels dedicated to replanting trees and restoring the oxygen-rich atmosphere of generations past. As the three work to stay alive in the deadly outside world, their fragile bond is threatened as tensions rise to the point of all-out war and revolution. The concept of Crossan's first YA novel has potential, and it's enlivened by her attention to detail, the trio of narrators, and constant tension. But while the story is well-executed, with characters readers will grow to care about, its reliance on well-worn themes of governmental corruption and class warfare may make it difficult to stand out in a crowded genre. Ages 14–up. Agent: Sarah Davies, Greenhouse Literary Agency. (Oct.)
