We finally got Mama to help us blog again. She's so darn busy outside working with her flower gardens. She wants to get everything done in the gardens before our hot summer weather hits here in Iowa. When it's that hot, she can't work in the gardens, it makes her too sick. Plus she shouldn't be in the sun much when it's real hot either. She went to the skin dogtor on Monday & a few weeks previously & had several lumps & things taken off her skin. One patch had the pre-C word mentioned, yikes! Today she got the official word on the other lumps & NO C-word. So we were happy about that.
We were doing walkies around the pond yesterday & look what we found sitting on a rock along the smaller pond edge:
Yep, an ugly mean young Snapping Turtle. They are pretty mean turtles. They will eat our koi fish, tear up our waterlilies, etc.
So Mama caught him in the big fish net and had Papa take him down to the dead end of our road & plop him into the river. Now our koi are safe again!
Here are a few of the koi swimming:
And we are happy to report that the 6 young koi that Mama bought last year, Asta, Agatha, Archie, Maggie, Scruffy & Pearl are ALL alive & well. They made it through winter & survived that mean mink that stole Koi Cookie. We are also seeing baby koi that were born in the pond last year. They are now about 3-4 inches long and starting to swim around with the large koi. In a few months we should be able to start naming some of those young koi. We still have our list of pal names that signed up to have a koi named after them. So once we match a name to a koi, we'll let you know.
Wirey Hugs,
Butchy, Snickers, Ruby, Sylvester & Scuby

That is one really ugly turtle - glad Dad took care of it. Our human brother that lives in California had a bad raccoon or some animal come in at night and steal their koi too. Your koi pond is very lovely.

That snapping turtle looks SCARY. NOT the kind of thing a foxy nose would want to grab. We're glad no one was snapped before he got relocated.
And how cool is that? Baby Koi! If our pond wasn't so muddy and there weren't so many cattails surrounding it so we can't get to the edge, we'd get some koi of our own for it! We love to see yours swimming!
Do YOU swim in the pond? Are you water dogs?

He's learning and improving and showed good pace against Mclean a few times. The boy needs to be left in the team so it breeds confidence

But we go a great many places tliey don't want us to go, but that is one place we are going sure. But we will take our time for it. We have not been oul of hearing of guns now for two months or not more than two days at a time. There has been skirmishing and fighting all the time, Tliere has not been a general engage¬ ment of all the lines during this cam¬ paign. Part of the iines have been engaged for an hour or two at a lime, Tiie rebels made a stand at Kennesaw mountains. There we fought tliein tlfteen days and tliey left there.

Connor Cook runs for a first down against Purdue. (Dale G. Young / Detroit News)
East Lansing � In the minutes following Michigan State�s 14-0 victory over Purdue last weekend, Mark Dantonio bristled at the suggestion his team took a step in the wrong direction.
�It�s a step forward, not a step back,� he said after the Spartans managed 112 yards passing, 79 on the final two drives. �A step back is when you lose.�
But during his weekly news conference Tuesday, Dantonio softened a bit on the idea.
�Did we take a step back this last week?� he asked. �Probably. In some cases we did, in other cases, even offensively, in other cases we took a step forward.�
There is little debate the passing game was not one of those cases as quarterback Connor Cook, coming off two straight impressive performances, was 13-for-25 and as inaccurate as he has been in weeks. Entering the fourth quarter, he was 9-for-19 for 33 yards.
With backup Tyler O�Connor warming up on the sidelines, however, Cook led the Spartans to their two best drives. The first ended when receiver Tony Lippett threw a 5-yard touchdown to tight end Andrew Gleichert on a reverse-pass and the second chewed up what was left of the clock.
That final drive highlighted what has truly been the bright spot for Michigan State�s offense � the running game.
Jeremy Langford carried 24 times for a career-best 131 yards, the second consecutive week he went over the 100-yard mark, and the Spartans rank sixth in the Big Ten (186.1 yards).
�There are positives that we can look at in every respect, and there�s also going to be negatives,� Dantonio said. �We got a shutout, first time since �99. Did we play our best defensive game? Probably not.
�So it just depends on how we look at it and what we have to do, but that�s why we�re coaching and we�re just going to try and identify problems and solve those problems as we move through the process here.�
Michigan State is heading to Illinois on Saturday as a double-digit favorite, but will need to continue to run the ball well while improving its passing game. That appears likely as Illinois allows more than 454 yards (11th, Big Ten) and 32.3 points.
Illinois also allows 211 yards rushing.
Purdue, however, ranks near the bottom, as well, and held Michigan State to one offensive touchdown.
The difference was the Michigan State defense. It allowed Purdue to run the ball early, but adjusted to shut the Boilermakers down and record the first Spartans shutout since 2011 and the first in conference since 1999.
Dantonio, however, wants to see more.
�We have to play better to improve,� he said. �We need to be playing our best football as we get into November. If you�re going to go to the championship game, which that�s our goal, and win the championship, which that�s our goal, then you�d better be playing your best football towards the end.�
It�s the best scenario for Michigan State, which faces Michigan, Nebraska and Northwestern in consecutive weeks to begin November before closing at home against Minnesota.
�I know what we have to do to win, and so we have to play things close to the vest,� Dantonio said. �If we have to win 13-10, that�s what we do. If we have to win 43-40, that�s what we�ll do.�

Welcome to another terror-filled edition of Classic-Horror.com's Shiverin' 6. In this installment we will delve into one of the horror genre's most frightening sub-genres: the killer kid flick. Since this is a rather large category of films we've decided to dedicate two separate features to these pictures. Part One will focus on children who act as individual threats and part two will take a look at children acting out as a group. Possession films will be saved for future columns. (read more...)

Jared Studeman carried Atascadero in the first half and Robbie Berwick took over in the second as the Greyhounds beat St. Joseph, 69-58 on Monday. The teams entered the game in a tie for second place in the Pac-7 at 7-2. The win propels Atascadero to 8-2, one game back of Righetti. The Warriors beat Pioneer Valley, 82-39 on Monday.
The Atascadero gym was packed for the second match up of the season between the teams. St. Joseph won the meeting in Santa Maria on January 11, 85-74.
Studeman scored 15 points in the first half on five three pointers. The junior hit another three pointer in the second half to give him a career high six. Berwick scored 17 of his 21 in the second half. The junior point guard also had 10 assists.
Atascadero was up 35-27 at the half. St. Joseph guard, Case Bruton hit a three pointer from 25 feet at the end of the half. He scored 15 in the first half and finished with 22. The Knights got within five points in the third quarter but the Greyhounds stretched the lead to 56-41 going into the fourth. Junior post Keith Datu added 18 for the Knights including two dunks.
None of Atascadero's bench players scored in the game. Point guard Joe Johnson scored 12, forward Brady Youngquist had 9 and Connor Kim scored 5.
Both teams have two games left. Atascadero hosts Righetti on Wednesday night and then plays at Pioneer Valley on Friday. If the Greyhounds win both they will be guaranteed at least a share of the Pac-7 title. St. Joseph plays at San Luis Obispo on Wednesday before hosting Paso Robles on Friday.

We go to dinos quite often. Food has always been great. Soup and salads excellant Pancakes never better. Great homemade bread. Pork chops my favorite but last time , not as good as usual. 171 LAKE ST . Bloomingdale 60108
We live in Bloomingdale so to go to Dino's is not only convenient but also helps support the community in which we live. However, we will not be going back. On several different dining occasions members of our dinner party have received raw food. Specifically raw eggs (whites totally uncooked), raw pancakes, when one got to the middle the batter... More
Went to Dino's and got food poisoning on bacon and eggs. We told manager that bacon was not applewood smoked and he insisted it was. I'm not stupid. I know smoked bacon and so does my mom. This bacon did not taste right. Did not finish meal. After a few hours, I got sick; next day my mom sick. Notified... More
The food is good , very attentive management. Servers and bus persons are always there for the customers and most important of all at very reasonable prices. One thing Dino's can improve is their coffee. It's just fair or verage.
Fantastic breakfast. We received fantastic service. The food was very good, served quickly and the wait staff were very friendly. Comfortable seating and large portions for great prices.
No matter how good the food maybe and the service of my waiter I can not in good conscience recommend this place. I witnessed and altercation between a waitress and a cook that I found very disturbing. When I talked to the management about what I had witnessed all they would say to me as they laughed it off is... More
Your typical neighborhood pancake house. Good food, great service. I've been here twice and the first time we arrived at 9:50 pm (they close at 10). Instead of having an attitude when we walked in the door because they wanted to go home they greeted us with enthusiasm. Pleasant surprise. I ordered pancakes and hash browns and it was everything... More
Recently in Bloomingdale for two nights with a group of 8 people. Ate here after first night, it was wonderful and service outstanding. Unanimous decision to return the next day. Plenty of parking in thier lot or the adjacent strip mall. Definatley eating here again if in the area.
The name of this place is 'Pancake House and Restaurant', not 'Restaurant and Pancake House', so you'd expect that they would be able to make good pancakes... Wouldn't you? Major pancake fail! This place is terrible. And the waitresses working there know it! Ours was obviously not surprised that I left more than half my stack of dry, thick, crumbly,... More
They do have a limited menu, but the breakfast is plentiful. The food and service is always great and you can tell by the always crowded parking lot. I sometimes have to skip this place because of no place to park

You'd use one of the many NT ssh or Xwindows servers to talk to the nodes. Is it possible to netboot Linux from a NT server (what has to be running on NT to make this work)? Why would one want to do this? There is a huge installed base for powerpoint, excel and word, and eventually you have to get your results into that form. Also, you could start your cluster grinding on a lengthy task, effectively in the background, and continue using all the "institutionally supported" software (i.e. Office, Outlook, Project, etc.) in the foreground. Sure, it's far from optimal, but then, what separates theory from practice is that practice has all these warts and impracticalities but it does useful work. I suspect that MS's clustering solution doesn't work with diskless nodes (although I'm not sure). It was a struggle to get diskless Win95 clients working reliably, and I can't imagine that getting NT up on a diskless node would be very easy.

Wearing these popular accessories can cause serious eye injuries and lead to permanent vision loss
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- As people across the country start shopping for their perfect Halloween costume and are tempted to complete their look with costume contact lenses bought without a prescription, ophthalmologists – medical doctors specializing in the diagnosis, medical and surgical treatment of eye diseases and conditions – are warning consumers that doing so can lead to permanent vision loss.
Although the practice has been illegal since 2005, today cosmetic contact lenses are still sold in shops and via online retailers to customers who are unaware that wearing these devices can result in serious eye injuries. The American Academy of Ophthalmology warns that the lenses, which may not be manufactured to meet federal health and safety standards, can cause injuries such as cuts and open sores in the protective layer of the iris and pupil (corneal abrasions and ulcers) and potentially blinding painful bacterial infections (keratitis). These injuries can require serious eye surgeries such as corneal transplants, and in some cases lead to permanent vision loss. One study found that wearing cosmetic contact lenses increased the keratitis risk by more than 16 times.1
Federal law classifies all contact lenses as medical devices and restricts their distribution to licensed eye care professionals. Illegal sale of contact lenses can result in civil penalties of up to $16,000 per violation.
"What happens to people's eyes after just one evening of wearing non-prescription costume contact lenses is tragic," said Thomas Steinemann, M.D., professor of ophthalmology, MetroHealth Medical Center and Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland and a clinical spokesperson for the American Academy of Ophthalmology. "It all could have been avoided if these patients just took a little extra time to obtain a prescription and only wore FDA- approved lenses. I understand how tempting it is to dress up your eyes on Halloween without a prescription and using over-the-counter lenses, but people should not let one night of fun ruin their vision for a lifetime."
To safely wear decorative contact lenses this Halloween or any time of year, the American Academy of Ophthalmology recommends following these guidelines:

Hello everyone, this is my first post here. I'm a graduate researcher in environmental engineering, and my project requires quite a bit of microbiological work. Unfortunately, I'm not very familiar with the associated techniques. I need to grow anaerobic metal reducing bacteria on acetate and nitrate, and currently buffer them in a bicarbonate/CO2 system. This works well, except for the fact that the CO2 wreaks havoc in my microfluidic reactors. These reactors are 3 microliters or less in volume, and one single bubble will ruin an experiment. I can sonicate and degas my media before injecting it into my reactor to make it bubble free, but that would alter the pH by the removal of CO2.
So, I'm looking into HEPES and MOPS as alternative buffers because I think they can be used without CO2, or any dissolved gases for that matter. I have HEPES and I have MOPS, but I don't know how to use them. For example, I see papers where people add 10 mM HEPES and get a pH of around 7.2-7.4, which is what I want. Do these people just add HEPES to this concentration, or do they add it and then adjust the pH? If they adjust the pH, what chemicals do they use to do this? So far I'm under the impression that I just need to add the buffers directly to the media at certain concentrations, and I'm ready to go. For example, I never need to add acid or base to my previous bicarbonate and CO2 buffered media. Any help would be very much appreciated because I'm so confused at the moment. Also, any information on MOPS concentration would be useful as well!

People often make a 1M stock of the buffer and dilute it as needed. I'm sure you could make it at 10mM instead. NaOH or KOH are commonly used to adjust the pH of HEPES; this is usually done with 10M or 1M solutions, but you may want something more dilute if you are making a stock of 10mM HEPES. If you need it sterile, filter sterilize and store at 4degrees in the dark.
Posted 13 July 2012 - 06:54 AM
I'm lazy I just buy it as a solution and dilute as necessary.
Posted 13 July 2012 - 12:22 PM
I'm actually planning to buy it as a 1M solution: http://www.invitroge...ents/hepes.html. I'm looking at the 100 mL volume and plan to put 10 mL of 1M stock into 1000 mL of media to get a final concentration of 10 mM HEPES. In that case, would I still need to add the NaOH? Or do I just dump the 10 mL into my media and continue making it as usual?
Posted 13 July 2012 - 12:41 PM
They list the pH at 7.2-7.5. If that is the pH you want, dilute as needed and proceed. This is what I usually do (I make stocks at different pH values rather than adjust the pH of the final media).
If you want to be sure the final pH is where you want it, instead of diluting 10ml into the final 1000ml, add it to ~950 ml and check the pH. If the the pH is correct, add H2O to get 1000ml. If it is off, add 1M NaOH in small increments to get the desired pH, then add H2O to 1000ml total.

That's actually the exact pH range I'd like to be in, so if I can just add it to the media then that's perfect. 7.5 is a little on the high end, but I think this will be the result of having a higher concentration of HEPES in the media. Most people recommend a range of 10-25 mM HEPES. So I'd guess that 10 mM will get me something around pH 7.2, while 25 mM might get me around 7.5 or so. Thanks for the help! Last question: If the pH is too HIGH, do I add HCl to take it down? Every site mentions NaOH or KOH, but no one ever mentions adding acids to bring the pH down. I'm a bit confused by this.
Posted 13 July 2012 - 01:06 PM
HCl should be fine.

Twice Charmed by Portland, Oregon
The Pacific Northwest city captivated the author first when she was an adventure-seeking adolescent and again as an adult
- By Katherine Dunn
- Photographs by Robbie McClaran
- Smithsonian magazine, November 2010, Subscribe
Portland and I have both changed over the decades, but this city hooked me back when I was a book-drunk adolescent with a yen for stories and adventure. This is the town I ran away to, and half a century later that skewed fascination still shapes my perception of the place.
These days Portland is liberal and green. We have recycling, mass transit, bicycles, high-tech industries and so many creative types that the brewpubs and espresso shops have to work overtime to fuel them. It's still far from perfect. But despite the familiar urban problems, there's a goofy, energetic optimism afoot. A popular bumper sticker reads, "Keep Portland Weird," and a lot of us try to live up to it.
Back in the early 1960s I was going to high school in a pleasant two-stoplight village some 20 miles to the west. Portland, with its population of 370,000 people, was considered fearsome and wild. Folks from small towns and farms tend to see the only big town in the state as a paved jungle of noise, danger and depravity. That's what intrigued me.
Weekends and after school I'd hop the bus into town feeling jubilant and a tad scared. To my young eyes Portland was a tough blue-collar town, scarred by labor clashes and hard on minorities. Supported by timber and crops, built around the railhead and the river port, the city was still recovering from the Great Depression and the closing of its shipyards after World War II. Families were moving to the suburbs.
Downtown was the older, densely built west bank of the Willamette River. It climbed toward the high, forested ridge known as the West Hills, where the rich had built mansions with amazing views. The seedy section nearest the river was my early stomping ground. Taverns and strip joints were off limits at my age, but there were pawnshops, pool halls, tattoo parlors and palm readers. There were 24-hour diners and cluttered bookstores where you could hole up out of the rain and read while your sneakers dried.
I saw things, both sweet and grim, that I'd only read about. There were drunks passed out in doorways, but Romany (Gypsy) families dressed in gleaming satin picnicked in the park. I was lucky. People were kind or ignored me entirely.
A Chinese grocer suggested pork rinds as chumming bait, and I would dangle a hook and line off a storm drain near the flour mill. I watched gulls swoop around battered freighters loading cargo for the Pacific voyage, and I pulled heavy, metallic-gold carp out of the river. Mrs. M., a tarot and tea leaf specialist who lived and worked in a storefront near Burnside Street, bought them for a quarter each. She always wanted what she called "trash fish" to stew for her cats.
My first city job was trying to sell magazine subscriptions over the phone after school. Four of us blotchy teens worked in a cramped, airless room in the Romanesque Dekum Building on SW Third Avenue. Our spiels came from smeared mimeographs taped to the wall in front of us. The boss wore suspenders, Brylcreemed his hair and dropped in occasionally to deliver pep talks.
I didn't make a single sale the first week. But I was looking forward to a paycheck when I ran up four flights of stairs on Friday afternoon, opened the office door and found it empty. Stripped. No phones, desks or people. Just a torn copy of the sales pitch crumpled in a corner. This was a stunner, but given my allegiance to Raymond Chandler and the noir flavor of the Dekum in those days, it was fitting.
Other layers of the city gradually revealed themselves to me, and in retrospect it's clear that the seeds of today's Portland were well established even then. The big Central Library was the loveliest building I'd ever set foot in. I've seen the Parthenon and other wonders since, but that library, with its graceful central staircase, tall windows and taller ceilings, still sets off a tuning fork in my chest.

IT IS TRUE: No one loves the sun more than Portlander's do. When the sun comes out, I say I am SOLAR POWERED and bask while it is there...it is so lovely, healing and warm penetrating and restoring to the soul. Love your writing, Kathryn.

Loved Katherine Dunn's article on Portland. It brought back some great memories. A third generation Portlander, I grew up on the near east side, Alameda district, and went 3 years to Grant High school where we ate at Yaws Drive-In for their famous french fries smothered in gravy and an incredibly juicy hamburger secret that the Yaws family would never reveal. Then there was the Tick-Tock Drive-In in that famous diagonal intersection with Burnside, Sandy Blvd. and some other street I can't remember where for a time the waitresses roller skated out the orders. Then there was the Saturday night "dragging" up Broadway to show off the latest sparkle or custom wheels on your car, a right of passage later later shut down by the police. And the old restaurants in downtown, the Jolly Joan, Larry Hilaire's, and Manning's coffee shop, all gone now. And the Central Library, ah yes, in the days before computers and word processors, a term paper assignment there was a real chore. Row upon row of musty smelling card catalogues from which we produced hundreds or 3X5 note cards, hoping somehow to put together a great report. I do remember the Gypsies and their huge families. I could never seem to get a clear answer from my parents as how exactly they made a living. Yes, a lot is gone, but as Katherine so poignantly states, a half century later (since high school), Portland really does seem brighter and more younger than ever.

What a wonderful, truthful and insightful comment on Portland. I fell in love with Historic Portland when I visited my daughter for a week, in the middle of July.
As I walked her beautiful Golden Retreiver mix,total strangers would greet the dog by name and ask,"Hello, Girlee, who's walking you today?" As I passed a coffee shop, the owner came out with a dog biscuit, and a bowl of water, so, of course I had a coffee and bagel.
The air there is so clean, the flowers fragrant, and the people casual, and friendly. I fell in love with the area also, so much that my husband and I are retiring about 3 hours from Portland next May. Can't wait!

What a treat to return from visiting my daughter in Portland to find this article. It was only my second visit and I think I'm starting to fall for the place. We ate at PorQue No (pictured in article), the Virginia Cafe which features napkin art and lip print winners from annual Valentine's Day contest (judged on size, color, shape and allure), then crossed the street to the beautiful library, where I even found my name in the zine section! (is it a sign?) Also enjoyed the bright and sunny Slappy Cakes where you can cook your own pancakes right on the table (try the sweet potato batter filled with bacon, vegan sausage and goat cheese), Blue Moon cafe where we played free pool and ate killer clam chowder by the fire place, and Coffee Time which was visited by a group of bloody zombies. Got to see my heroine Lynda Barry at the Portland Art Museum then spent 2 days on Mt. Hood in a cozy cabin, got in some hiking and delighted in irish coffees at the Timberline Lodge where they didn't even ask if we wanted whipped cream- just gave it to us. Sky Way Restaurant in Zig Zag was a funky joy where we filled up on comfort food (they're famous for their mac & cheese) and grilled salmon on spinach salad. Did the corn maze and pumpkin patch on Sauvie Island and everywhere we went people were fun, friendly, and READING. Katherine, thanks for the article Geek Love is one of my all-time faves.

Ms Dunn's story is a wonderful discription of her love of Portland,OR. The words she used were so colorful & honest & I loved the whole article as it took me right into the area she was discribing & I could almost smell the odors she was & the sweet rain & the disappointment of her "paycheck" that she had worked hard for. I'm only a days drive from her Portland & if I get there again, I'm sure going to enjoy the pleasures she has.Great job, Lady!

Condo Auctions In Arizona And Oregon Garner Good Deals For Bidders
In Portland, Oregon 47 units of the John Ross condominium project were sold through two separate auctions on April 10th and April 11th at the Fairmont Scottsdale and the Hilton Portland & Executive Tower. The John Ross auction had over 700 bidders and the sales prices were over 151 percent of minimum bids which started at $110,000.
Neither condo auction sold all the units, at the Northshore project, 19 out of 22 units sold, while at the John Ross, 47 out of 50 units sold.

Posts Tagged 'lose belly fat'
Almost every trainer or nutritionist will tell you that Belly-Fat is the hardest fat to lose. It's usually the first to come on, and the last to leave. But what causes it?
The simple and scientific answer is prolonged stress. Today everyone is stressed. Stress experts estimate that today we experience 100 times the stress that our grandfathers experienced. And this stress, if not dealt with properly, will make you fat.

First of all, I know I'm breaking my number one rule of don't feed the trolls, but holy **** , you guys and gals. I didn't realize that Funnyjunk was the new hangout of the Temperance Coalition. It's a joke. Don't find it funny, thumb down, but I really didn't post it to create a soapbox for you all to get up on so you can morally stroke off. Yes, it's 'wrong' to do drugs and alcohol in front of your kids, you should find your wife hot no matter what, you should be getting high on life, or whatever else Kirk Cameron jizzed out all over your face. Hey, this is Funnyjunk. We laugh at 9/11 jokes, neckbeards, pedophilia, sloth rapists, and other 'morally grey' things. Jesus ************* Christ. For once, I'm ashamed of the LACK of moral depravity on display here. For shame on all of you.

Hops finally appear at the finish, then seem to leave, then resurface in a pleasant, slightly bitter aftertaste. M: Light and clean, carbonated just right. O: Very easy to drink. The 7.85 ABV is hard to believe, it's so smooth. The 63 IBU, however, seems accurate. Almost no bitterness until very late; mostly yeast and a malty sweetness. Doesn't taste like an IPA, much less a DIPA. Reminiscent of Little Sumpin Wild with its Belgian yeast flavor. Not bad, but I much prefer Hop Stoopid.

Ovechkin: I am 70% ready [for new season]
Ovi is getting into optimal shape for 2011/12 season. That's a very delicate process, so if he says he is ready by 70%, that's how it should be.
Nikita Lukyanov from Sport-Express:
How will you assess your readiness for the season?
I am ready by 70 percent. I still have a month and a half to get in the best shape.
Most likely "Russia 2" TV channel will show the NHL games this season. How about that?
I will be happy because all my friends are watching the NHL. They have to look for a broadcast on the Internet.
Thanks to our reader BobbyG's comment: I forgot that Ovi is flying to DC in a few hours, that's why he has to say goodbye to his grandma. And he might get stuck in a Moscow traffic jam for another 4 hours too.

Now so let -- what I really would like to see you know I don't mean be too partisan when I say this -- -- clearly partners.
Presence -- why not do what Ronald Reagan did what I do -- Bill Clinton did.
Call these guys over to the quality and women.
Over to the Oval Office and so mentally I would just say it was a well I think I like to see it you know I say you -- when you sit here until.
Midnight and we're gonna.
Lay things out and then we're going to be able come out and stand before the American people see we've reached groups say -- Reach an agreement approval ratings which would go from its now like 1011%.
Just below journalists of.
This stuff up all night I.
That it's just amazing video that makes one did not happening and it's -- -- back to equivalent Republicans are why would the president accessory I would.
The president spent yesterday out in Michigan and railing against something that the Michigan legislatures.
Gonna do.
When we're facing just a few days before going over the cliff I don't get it.
Unless the president thinks that he's gonna gain in the short term politically -- -- going over the cliff but long term he should understand.
That's historians put the blame for what happens in countries on the presidency United States suing they would make it short term gain and are popular blame congress I see I read these -- all the time.
But in the long line is that really helpful to the president's reputation.
Twenty or thirty years from now that they couldn't get a deal and push this country into another recession or at least -- short term.
Harry Reid the majority leader was saying.
Very unlikely we would have a deal by Christmas the sensibly we're running candidates on the calendar so -- that's the case that he will bulls of the factors that.
Republicans haven't come up with specifics as to how they would raise an 800 billion in revenues are -- against returning to Clinton error rates -- would you be.
OK with that if it's a way of avoiding.
All the hoops they're going through to -- like -- I'm in favor.
Of most anything that would get and green.
But it seems to me why are we focusing on that narrow part of this entire scenario.
In other -- the tax rates.
Why aren't we also giving equal weight in the media and in our debates.
I'm the entitlements we know what the elephant in the -- -- -- scene tell it what you're donate democratic congressman I guess it is added I know -- -- I know what they stand.
But they're not the ones frankly were at the table right now.
Right now it is present Maynor and perhaps McConnell perhaps below -- -- that are there but right now those two are.
It's easy and really address it until Tuesday that the best case and Mary here's senators that.
Republicans agreed to hikes in taxes and it on the details with the promise that they're -- -- address spending next year.
Republican target they've been that way before in this.
Got some beach front property in Arizona for you if you if you would accept that -- I would not.
No I I would not because that's if you want to see that cuts or whatever now -- I remind you that in 1986 Ronald Reagan sat down with the Democrats and they had to deal.
And that was cut spending for three dollars for every dollar they raced in Texas guess what.
They raise the taxes they never cut spending so there is reason for us to be very cautious about that.
There's got to be a way through this and maybe it will take.
The markets starting to send a signal that we just in people taking actions in anticipation.
This right raising taxes every you know one economist doesn't believe that we are gonna go into another recession -- It's sort of -- -- worried about that of late maybe they think the field scored word they don't think it will be calamitous and you do you think that.
No deal is better than -- -- -- Today I -- again and I think he'll -- hobson's choice here.
I think the only thing you can do is to make a deal.
And I think the American people deserve it and if if we don't get it now -- who worry about the country.
I really do that.
I'm in discussions with people about this nuclear options -- discussion to people about the immigration.
Reform issue.
We could have discussions about this.
Democrats want to -- -- at least not.
The majority I -- but what do you see as it's really just sort attempting the other.

For the country and by the way sequestration is also.
Looming out there as soon as is the first of January -- as well as soon as it's big for defense.

I made a first pass at packaging it and starting feeling ill at the pain,So even just packaging this OpenCL support for the Fedora desktop causes pain. But yes the actual implementation too is quite poor at this point. There is the merged Radeon Gallium3D compute support and the ongoing work on the Nouveau side, but it's still very early and not actually doing much... OpenCL in Mesa 8.1 will still be disappointing, but maybe by the next release in early 2013 there will be some form of usable support, along with OpenGL 3.1 compliance.
the big problem was pacakging libclc, its horribly developed, got what I think is a handwritten build system in python (or a port of one), requires a fair few patches to even get close to being useful.
I'm sort of waiting for AMD to say when they think things are more ready, from a radeon pov, and from what I know nouveau support still isn't merged into mesa.
So at the moment I get the feeling that you could probably run clinfo and not much more.
