The Costa Rican international scored his series-leading fifth career goal of the Rocky Mountain Cup in the 80th minute and RSL clawed back from an early hole for a 1-1 draw in the teams' first tangle of the new season on Saturday at Rio Tinto Stadium.
The draw not only kept the Rapids (0-2-1) winless on the young season, but it also tightened a suffocating grip on the visitors from Denver when they head west of the Rockies. The Rapids have not won a game in Utah in the past six years, a streak that reached nine games when Saborio placed a right-footed shot in the back of the net to the delight of more than 20,000 fans on hand for the team's season opener.
RSL sit at 1-1-1 on the season.
The two teams will renew the rivalry on April 6 at Dick's Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, Colo.
The Rapids will almost certainly play that game without starting goalkeeper Matt Pickens, who was injured and taken out of the game just four minutes into the match on Saturday. Pickens suffered a broken forearm during a mid-air collision with RSL defender Kwame Watson-Siriboe on an RSL corner kick and remained on the ground in pain for roughly five minutes before he was helped off the field and rushed to an area hospital for further evaluation.
Backup Clint Irwin, who was signed by the club in February as a third option and had never seen a minute of MLS league action until he stepped onto the field Saturday, made three saves in the match. He turned away RSL midfielder Luis Gil with aplomb twice, first with a diving save to his left in the 41st minute and again by surging off his line and closing down the angle on a wide-open shot from 15 yards out in the 64th minute.
Brown's first career goal was certainly a fortuitous one, but opportunistic nonetheless. RSL defender Chris Schuler fumbled a clearance outside the top of the RSL box and the former University of Central Florida star picked it clean, breaking in on RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando before calmly placing a right-footed shot to the back post.
The Rapids had the best early scoring chance of the day when Brown scuffed a shot just wide of the post in the 14th minute, and Harris narrowly missed the far post with a left-footed shot in the 18th minute after he was set up by a through ball from rookie midfielder Dillon Powers.
RSL followed with their own missed chance just seconds later, when Robbie Findley chipped a shot over the bar after he rushed through the Rapids backline on a through ball from Schuler.
Beckerman also missed a shot wide of the post in the 31st minute, and Rapids forward Tony Cascio had a crucial chance to pad the Rapids' lead in the 78th minute but was turned away by Rimando. Rapids forward Atiba Harris struggled to solve Rimando in the closing minutes as well, with the RSL veteran making a save with his chest from roughly six yards away.
Pickens' injury wasn't the only rough play in the first game of a three-game set this season between the Rocky Mountain rivals. RSL defender Lovel Palmer suffered a kick to the face in the 7th minute courtesy of Harris, who was later hip-checked by Schuler in the 53rd minute and limped off the field before retuning.
RSL midfielder Khari Stephenson also left the game at halftime with a sprained knee and was replaced by veteran Ned Grabavoy. Pablo Mastroeni –the only current Rapids player on the roster the last time Colorado won a game in Utah in April 2007- did not make the trip due to a nagging hamstring injury.

I am trying to create a new Character Style that will make the text All Caps. I am doing this in the Character Style Window-->Basic Character Formats--->Case-->All Caps. But, the client does not want to see the All Caps button highlighted in the Control Bar as they feel this is stylized type and claim that the printer's rip will fail. I dont want to have to keep manually selecting this type and choosing UPERCASE under the Type Menu-->Change Case to format this type the way that they want it. Is there any other way to do this? Thanks in advance for any help w/this.
LOL, yup, we allll know that! Well, all except them. Im so furstrated by it. I also have to alphabetize swatches for them. Ugh. So, no trick to get around this? I wonder why that all caps button doesnt get highlighted when you manually select UPPERCASE under type.

Tim Our university HPC cluster had similar problems with dual-core opterons 275's. They had about 20 bad ones out of a batch of 400. The nodes would run OK for a while and then die. It took many months to track down the source of the problem-AMD gave the same lame excuse-bad QA. Tony -----Original Message----- From: beowulf-bounces at beowulf.org [mailto:beowulf-bounces at beowulf.org] On Behalf Of Tim Moore Sent: Monday, December 04, 2006 10:16 AM To: beowulf at beowulf.org Subject: Re: [Beowulf] Node Drop-Off Update to node drop-off: I wrote a few weeks ago to ask about node drop-off. A quick note...I had a cluster run for 3 years without failure and I upgraded the Opteron 240 CPUs to 250s. The upgrade required a BIOS upgrade and while I was at it, upgraded the OS and security. Some readers provided good suggestions for diagnosis. As it turned out, of the 16 CPU batch...two were flawed. No success was derived from replacing power supplies, HDD, resetting memory and the cooling solution. The CPU flaw only manifested itself (at first) after several hours of CPU usage. With each failure, the time duration shortened before the next failure and by the time I figured it out was down to about 2 minutes. The AMD engineer with whom I talked was amazed that such CPUs made it beyond quality control. He also suggested that the vendor may have inadvertently mixed returned (previously fetermined to be flawed processors) with the new ones and sent them out (again) as new. Just for future reference...is there an easy way to determine if a CPU is flawed with 2 weeks of down time and extensive hair extraction???? Tim

A flood of toxic sludge
On Monday, October 4th, a large reservoir filled with toxic red sludge in western Hungary ruptured, releasing approximately 700,000 cubic meters (185 million gallons) of stinking caustic mud, which killed many animals, at least four people, and injured over 120 - many with chemical burns. The 12-foot-high flood of sludge inundated several towns, sweeping cars off the road as it flowed into the nearby Marcal River. Emergency workers rushed to pour 1,000 tons of plaster into the Marcal River in an attempt to bind the sludge and keep it from flowing on to the Danube some 45 miles away. The red sludge in the reservoir is a byproduct of refining bauxite into alumina, which took place at an alumina plant run by the Hungarian Alumina Production and Trading Company. A criminal probe has just been opened by Hungarian authorities. (30 photos total)

Almost three years after releasing Machete, director Robert Rodriguez is back with Machete Kills, another look at the sword-wielding, stone-faced antihero (played by Danny Trejo) who originally came about as a joke in a faux trailer for Grindhouse. The project has an impressive cast list, including Trejo, Michelle Rodriguez as She, and Sofia Vergara, Lady Gaga, Charlie Sheen, and Mel Gibson in supporting roles. No one, least of all Rodriguez, is pretending that Machete Kills and its predecessor are anything other than campy, fun flicks, but the movie is sure to inspire some questions. We've rounded up the biggest ones and are addressing them below.
How Is Lady Gaga?
Pretty good, considering that this is Gaga's first movie role. Of course, she also has the benefit of only having a few lines (most of which are spoken by a man), and spending a majority of her time in what looks and feels like an outtake from her 2010 "Telephone" music video (minus Beyoncé). Unsurprisingly, Gaga fits perfectly in Rodriguez's world, which could be a good or a bad thing, depending on whether you're a fan of the director's work.
What About Sofia Vergara?
Despite the fact that Vergara and her machine-gun bra are featured heavily in promos for the film, she really only has a handful of lines in the actual movie. And the lines she does have are delivered at a decibel level so high they make Modern Family's Gloria's screechiest moments sound like hushed whispers. Aside from all the yelling, Vergara seems like a natural fit for one of Rodriguez's films. Her mixture of va-va-voom and winking silliness make her one of the more interesting actors to watch — you just get the sense that she's enjoying herself.

Keep your tresses tame with this season's prettiest runway-inspired ponytails.
The best part about the ponytail is that it's entirely low-maintenance even though it looks surprisingly high-fashion. All you need is a touch of pomade and a simple hair elastic to master this straight-off-the-runway trend. So go ahead and hit that snooze button again—even the sleekest pony takes seconds to style.

This is truly one of the great routes in the Black, and perhaps the world. Yes, THE WORLD! Great rock and great gear throughout. P1: Face climb trending right with gear and past 3 bolts to the base of an open corner. Two bolt belay. 5.11. P2: Climb the amazing corner to a stance. Unbelievable. 5.12-. P3: A short crack leads to a corner and a mantle and easier climbing to a stance below a bolt and corner. 5.11+. P4: Climb past the bolt into yet another amazing corner. Belay at a stance below a shallow corner/slot. 5.12-. P5: Climb the slot past a roof. 5.10. A ledge and a short difficult corner follows. 5.10. At the next ledge, bypass the corner on the face to the right. Belay at grassy ledges. P6: Go up 5.8 corners trending slightly left. After 200' move right and continue with a little simul-climbing up stair step ledges to the base of open black corner. Variation directly to 2 Boulder Bivy: Belay after 200' and then step a little right and go up obvious 5.8 flake corner (nice). Some slightly mungier and harder climbing tops out on the bivy. P7: Climb a black corner (5.11a) stepping out left when convenient and finishing at the base of a obvious thin crack in a wide dihedral. An easy 50' traverse can go from here to the 2 boulder bivy. P8: 50 feet right of the two boulder bivy. Climb a shallow splitter through a black streak. When the crack peters out, step right, then up and left to a bolt. A difficult leftward traverse (11d) ends at a two bolt belay. 5.12. Stellar. P9: Follow a shallow crack, then faceclimb right to a bolt and mantle move to a ledge. Step left into a shallow corner and another ledge with a small crack for gear. Step down and right, then up to a rampy corner. Follow this to the top and a good ledge. 5.11. P10: Ignore the flake going out left. Go up into twin cracks then face climb past a seam to a ledge (12-). Continue up a left leaning corner past a bolt (12-) to belay stance. Minus too much rope drag, you can continue another 40 feet up 10+ to a chain anchor (the third station on Astro-slog raps). P11: (The extra 40' in the above pitch can be added to this pitch, too, or done as a short pitch to reduce drag) Go up corners and face climb out right past some cracks. Climb the right leaning corner to a sloping ledge and a single belay bolt. 5.11. P12: A very difficult overhanging crack splits a short headwall to chain anchors (the second rap station). 5.12. P13: Up through chockstones to grassy ledges. Resist the temptation to go straight up. Head directly left under the prow to join the top of Astro Dog. Belay below 5.9 S-crack on Astro Dog. 5.8. P14: Climb 5.9 s-crack. Trend left to 5.9 corner. Go through bushes and behind flake. Chimney up and step across. Battle drag up pegmatite ramp past a pin. Belay at the top of pegmatite. P15: Tend right up gully and under roofs. Step around the roof to a slab and head up and left. Climb chimney corner past chockstones. 5.9. Belay at chains on top.
This route is on the South Rim below the South Chasm Overlook. Descend the Astro Slog descent. The route begins just right of the first pitch of Astro Dog. Look for face holds and cracks trending right to a bolt.
Set of stoppers with extra 4 through 7. "RPs" (those BD steel micros work wonders). Two sets of cams from purple TCU size to hands with one micro-cam.
Somebody took the piton that was part of the anchor below the last 5.12 pitch, right under the Astrodog raps. Right now it is a single bolt anchor with hard climbing above. It might be worth taking a medium-sized angle on the rappel to add to the anchor, then leave the hammer there to pickup on your way out.
Posted a new and fairly accurate topo after doing the complete route with Chris Righter. The only guesswork is the pitch lengths, but they should be about right. J Wharton suggests linking pitch 2 and 3, but drag may be a problem and then detract from the absolutely sublime climbing you just completed on pitch 2. I'd suggest belaying and soaking it in! As to Topher's above comment: On pitch 12, we put in a nut that becomes part of the anchor and the first piece for the crux climbing. It goes just below the pin scar. I fell on it a couple times. Sounds sketchy but it keeps you off the ledge just fine and your other belay piece is a 3/8" bolt in bullet stone.
Tried the upper pitches the other day. Awesome route! Very hard crux that I believe is .12+.
This route is indeed a classic! If you enjoy thin granite cracks and corners with good pro, get on this route! A few notes and suggestions: Our original plan, and one I would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxed outing, was to spend two days on the route. It is very easy to rap in with a haulbag to the two-boulder-bivy. Take full advantage of the top-down hauling to bring beer, good food, boombox, whatever. The bivy is nice for two people. (We did not end up climbing the second half of the route on the second day, though, as threatening weather gave us an excuse to escape on Astro-dog. We came back two weeks later to climb the upper half). As for the pitches, the long stemming corner on P2, and the p8 corner above the bivy ledge felt like the most involved, sustained leads. The hardest single move is definitely on p12 (the steep finger crack), but it's very short and easy to figure out. The rack recommended was spot on, was glad to have a good selection of RPs and small cams. You could probably get by without the #3, or a second #2, but we found plenty of places to use them. Finally, HUGE thanks to the FA team for establishing this line. This was definitely a route that had to be "established", I'm sure it required a fair amount of cleaning, and every one of the bolts seems pretty essential. It's not a line that jumps out at you, but it weaves its way and connects some amazing pitches on very good rock. -Scott
Thanks for the kudos, Scott. You're welcome! Since you brought up the "established" aspect of the climb and "cleaning", I thought I'd clarify that Jared and I established the climb on lead with almost no cleaning. A few dirty fingerlocks was about it. That's why it is such a great climb - it was clean in the first place!
I totally agree with Scott's recomendation of spending a night on the two boulder bivy, and definitely bring the beer. 15 pitch routes don't get much cleaner or more classic than TYT, no worries, just great rock climbing!
Hey, does anybody know the history of this climb? I'd love to hear it if you have a minute
This route is beyond Classic! Some of the best rock I have ever climbed. The 5.12 pitch off of 2 boulder bivy is freakin' amazing!
The bottom 7 pitches were definitely softer than the top ones. The one .12a off the 2 bldr bivy is the hardest of the .12a's.

The Canisius College Chorale, under the direction of Frank Scinta, will present Sacred Spaces, an evening of great choral music, at 7:30 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 2, at Annunciation Church, 7580 Clinton St., Elma. The concert will feature works by Vivaldi, Lotti, Hogan, Dawson and others. The event is free, but a free-will offering will be collected.
Sacred Spaces stems from an idea the choir proposed several years ago to feature its music in some of Western New York's most beautiful and acoustically resonant environments — namely, the sanctuaries of our area's churches. As a result, the choir has visited nearly 40 present and former houses of worship with its repertoire of sacred and secular music spanning five centuries.
Now in its fourteenth season, the Canisius College Chorale remains one of Western New York's most active collegiate music ensembles. Composed of 120 undergraduate and graduate members, the Chorale regularly presents concert programs to school, church and community audiences throughout Western New York and Southern Ontario.
For more information regarding Annunciation Church, please visit www.annunciation.cc or call 683-5254.

I take it all of that is from your main rig since you have a Core i7 (4-Smp, 1-Gpu). Are you going to use the other half of your GPU (HD4870X2)?
Need to have another monitor attached for the sencond gpu to fold, but yeah its all on one machine. Folding the GPU while smping slows down smp folds 4-5 min a percent. Without the gpu its about 14 mins a percent vs 19 while folding. Keeping 2 SMP going doesn't seem to hurt any performance on games, some games ya can still gpu fold while playing. Though I think fold on the gpu2 would just hurt smp performance more, so I might play with it, maybe 3 smp and 2 gpu might be a good combo.
just stared to fold yesterday with my amd phenom 940 at 3.85ghz after a couple of days ill try my ati 4870x2 in quad crossfire and see how that goes
I just joined up from your TPU WCG crunching team. Part of the exchange program. I crun....err.....fold for your team, you crunch for us. I think this is a pretty good deal for both teams. I'm working with an 8800GTX right now. I think it's running right.... Can 8600GTSs work too? How about a 7100GS? Regards, Bob
Hehe, I am new to folding. I'm not exactly a slouch on WCG, but I'm a pure noob to folding! Feels kind of nice to start from scratch on something new to me. That 8800GTX has something to do now too. It was getting bored. I've got a few other worthwhile cards scattered around the farm. Mostly I use ancient PCI vid cards since crunching doesn't care about GPUs. All the machines are capable of taking a 200 class card though... Bob
Only CUDA capable cards for Nvidia and Radeon 2XXX and up for ATI. The 8600 I think is good but definitely not the 7100
New to the forum and joined TPUs folding team a few days ago. I used to fold a little with my Ps3, but it uses way too much power (60gb model) and takes 8hrs per WU. Experimented with the SMP client on my backup computer and it crawled on the stock e2140. I am looking for an economical GPU/PSU set to put in it so I can contribute more. I am leaning towards buying Mike047's 9600GSO, but I also have a friend you may sell me his 9800GT very cheap. Thoughts? I would love to improve on this:
Im not new. I'm just saying i have a computer again after 2 weeks. Got an 8800GTS 320MB folding 24/7 now.
I've been crunching for the TPU WCG team for less than a month and now I have my first folding rig running. I started with a Gigabyte P45 board, Q6600 and 8800GT. I'm doing this under Windows 7 RC x64.
no screenshot but im not up and running using my main rig for folding using 2 of my cores on my pII 940 and 1 core on my 4870X2 and i must say im glad to be a part of the team
OK guys. I finally had some time to get things set up on my 3 rigs. I'll be folding a gtx260, a 8800gts and a 9600gso. However, I'm running into some problems with Fahmon. I posted about it in another F@H thread. Basically, I can't find where the hell I installed installed F@H to configure Fahmon. It's not showing up in program files.
It probably stuck it in the same place you put the installer file you downloaded. I ran into that too. I got real confused and started over. I finally created a new directory, f@h, off my root and stuck the install file there. Installed it, then dropped the whole "f@h" mess onto the Fahmon window. It sure wasn't elegant, but it seems to work. This is a dedicated farm machine so I could care less about the file structure being neat.... Bob
What up Ive jioned F@H From buck nastys help i just opened some GPU command run and set the setting to 80 for ussage i haz a e5200 at stock clocks but can be pumped up to 4.0Ghz 24/7 stable GTX 260 250gb hardrive 1069Mhz ocz platinum 5-5-5-15 and a cd drive it benched 65,s on 1440x960 on very high spec in crysis with no AA so its a machine for the res ehh ? o ya highes 3dmark06 score has been 17,125
It's been a while since I last installed the GPU application, but the folder you want to point FahMon to is: C:\Documents and Settings\(your computer name)\Application Data\Folding@home if you have multiple vid cards you're folding with then the last part "Folding@home" will be changed with however you decided to denote the different folders (ie. mine are Folding@home-gpu and Folding@home-gpu2)
Hello Everyone My Name is Rajesh and I am from Kolkata, India. My specs are E8400 OC'ed to 3.4Ghz 4GB DDR2 RAM 5-5-5-14 XFX 8800GT Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope 32 Bit Ummm err...I just realized there is no Folding Client for 32Bit Linux. So Basically I can't fold. Right?
alright im folding my ass off to TPU to bad my 4870X2 keeps giving me shit (only running on 1 core so as not to heat the card up to much) seems as it does a workload it just quits on its own says its working but after 2-3hrs no work is done i have restart client for it to finish the WU and then restart again to get another WU thankfully the CPU F@H is working as intended and my phenom II is plugging along jumped 130 spots in team ranking altho thats not that much considering ive only folded 10wu's

Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.
The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.
Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.
The mission of the Project North Star Association of Canada (PNSAC) is to assist the Canada Aviation Museum in the restoration of its aircraft collection, as well as other related tasks that fall within its capabilities. The Association will supply and organize resources essential to the restoration process. These include members skilled in areas such as aviation trades, research, administration and work management, engineering, information technology and fundraising. The PNSAC is dedicated to the preservation of Canada's aviation heritage.

Israeli women of the Women of the Wall organization hold a Torah scroll during a prayer just outside the Western Wall, the holiest site where Jews can pray in Jerusalem's old city, Friday, Dec. 14, 2012. Security guards at the Western Wall, the holiest place where Jews can pray, usually search worshippers for weapons upon entering. But on Friday, they were on the lookout for a seemingly inoffensive possession: Jewish prayer shawls. The shawls are ubiquitous at the holy site, and under Orthodox tradition, are worn only by men. When several dozen women draped in them attempted to enter the area, their multicolored garments were confiscated. (AP Photo/Dan Balilty)

As previously linked to....
Hi everyone!
You've probably seen our big news today - Beta signups are official! But how, you ask?
First, log onto the forums; then click profile and it's right there! For greater clarity closed beta starts today! we will be inviting users as soon as tomorrow.
Secondly, how the Founders program beta/early access works: The program is purchasable on June 19th and you gain guaranteed access to the closed beta on July 17th.
Thirdly, the reason this announcement stated 'North America' is that it's for North American servers – As we have mentioned we are working very hard to launch MechWarrior Online in every region worldwide. We may also run a similar Operation for other regions, therefore we are required to recommend that for the best play experience you register and play in your region in the near future. However There is no IP blocking. You can signup from everywhere just keep in mind that if you are outside of North America we cannot guarantee your play experience.
Thanks for being the most awesome fanbase ever, and we hope this clears up your questions.
The MechWarrior Online team.
Posted 22 May 2012 - 08:25 PM
If non-NA players buy the founders pack, can we get our account/c-bills etc moved to another sever when they become avalible? Or is our account stuck on the NA server and will have to start again from scratch on another server?

"Strapped Down Jacet Review"
This jacket is amazing, I love riding with it. This jacket can keep you warm anywhere. Also the vents on the side are amazing. The pockets on it are nice and deep so I can stash stuff in it easily when I am riding. Only thing to be careful about is opening it up while riding. It can be an air brake.

Canada established diplomatic relations with Vietnam in 1973, opening an Embassy in Hanoi in 1994 and a Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh City in 1997. Canada was a member of the International Commission for Supervision and Control for almost 20 years, after the cessation of Vietnam's hostilities with France in 1954.
In Vietnam, Canada is represented by the Embassy of Canada in Hanoi. Canada is also represented by a Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh City.
In Canada, Vietnam is represented by the Embassy of Vietnam in Ottawa. Vietnam also intends to open a Consulate General in Vancouver shortly.
Canada and Vietnam maintain excellent bilateral relations. In 2013, Canada and Vietnam will celebrate the 40th anniversary of their bilateral relations.
Canada's relations with Vietnam are expanding, particularly through rapidly-increasing trade and investment and a prominent CIDA presence. In 2009, Vietnam was confirmed as one of CIDA's 20 countries of focus. High-level political engagement has also increased in the past years. Prime Minister Harper visited Hanoi during APEC in 2006, while the first-ever visit to Canada by a Vietnamese Prime Minister was in June 2005. Former Deputy Prime Minister/Foreign Minister Khiem made an official visit to Canada in September 2009. Prime Minister Dung visited in June 2010 to attend the G20 meeting in Toronto as Chair of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). Former Minister of Foreign Affairs Lawrence Cannon travelled to Hanoi in July 2010 to attend the ASEAN Post Ministerial Conference and the ASEAN Regional. Governor General David Johnston visited Vietnam as part his State visit to Southeast Asia in November 2011.
Canada and Vietnam share membership in multiple multilateral forums, including ASEAN, in which Canada is a Dialogue Partner; Vietnam was Canada's Coordinating Country for 2006-09. Canada and Vietnam are also members of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), the World Trade Organization (WTO), the ASEAN Regional Forum, the Francophonie and the United Nations.
There is an active 180,000-strong Vietnamese-Canadian community in Canada. Several trade, cultural and charity delegations to Vietnam have been organized with Vietnamese-Canadian involvement.
In early 2007, Canada's Embassy and Consulate General launched a national education campaign to increase the number of Vietnamese students selecting Canada as their top choice for an international education. In 2011, the immigration section located in the Consulate General received 6240 temporary resident visa applications, 1985 study permit applications and 191 temporary workers.
In 2011, more than 3,000 students from Vietnam were studying in Canada. Of the 3,000, 1,000 new students arrived that year. That's four times more than the study permits issued in 2007. Vietnam is now the 16th source country for international students in Canada.
It is estimated that there are currently more than 50 active agreements between Canadian and Vietnamese universities. Vietnam nationals are eligible to participate in the Canadian Francophonie Scholarship Program managed by CIDA, which assists developing countries of the Francophonie to strengthen institutional capabilities in priority areas.
On August 14, 2012, Minister of International Trade Fast released the final report of the Advisory Panel on Canada's International Education Strategy (IES). The report recommends focusing on growth markets, including Vietnam. The government will review the Advisory Panel's recommendations, prior to a formal response and implementation plan for Canada's IES.
Canada restored official development assistance to Vietnam in 1990 and has since provided approximately $770 million in development assistance through the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) in support of Vietnam's economic reform and poverty alleviation initiatives (Source: CIDA's Chief Financial Officer Branch, Disbursements from 1990-1991 until 2011-2012).
In 2009, as part of Canada's new aid effectiveness agenda, Vietnam was selected by CIDA as a country of focus. CIDA's current programming responds to the Government of Vietnam's poverty reduction priorities and focuses on improving the enabling environment for investment and on supporting rural enterprise development and agricultural productivity.
CIDA focuses on increasing agricultural productivity, especially at the provincial level, by supporting technical assistance and other services to farmers and government agencies in order to improve production and harvesting techniques, food safety, and quality.
CIDA focuses on supporting legal and policy reforms, as well as institutional changes needed for market-driven growth, and on strengthening rural small- and medium-sized enterprise (SME) development. CIDA also focuses on enhancing skills for employment by improving access to and management of the technical and vocational education system.
In 2011, Vietnam's economy grew by nearly 6%, continuing a decade of high and steady growth. Extensive reforms (called "Doi Moi" or renewal) began in 1986, leading to substantial economic and social changes. Vietnam has made tremendous progress in reducing poverty, from 58% in 1993 to approximately 10% in 2010. In recent years, Vietnam has been making considerable efforts to increase its engagement on the world stage, seeking friendly relations with all countries.
Bilateral merchandise trade with Vietnam has increased steadily over the past decade, and is now more than four times greater than it was in 2000. Canada-Vietnam bilateral trade reached an all-time high of nearly $1.6 billion in 2011. Merchandise imports from Vietnam were valued at $1.3 billion, while exports were worth nearly $300 million. Statistics Canada reports that the stock of Canadian direct investment in Vietnam was $89 million at the end of 2010. Canadian companies have found opportunities in Vietnam in a variety of sectors including: Agriculture and Agri-Food, Education and Training, Forest Industries, Oil & Gas as well as Information and Communication Technologies (ICT).

Residential Community
The story of our residential community is part of the story of God's grace and His unique provision of Ridge Haven itself. The beauty of the spacious, hardwood-covered lots, each with its own unique contours and views, is surpassed only by the special people the Lord is building into a one-of-a-kind community. The uncluttered, quiet, and four-seasons beauty of our subdivisions is accompanied by Ridge Haven amenities, services, and spiritual blessings that surpass many exclusive clubs and residential developments. Most of all, lots in the Ridge Haven community provide some of the most affordable land to be found anywhere in the mountains of the southern United States. When the tax assessor came to view our lots, he said he did not know that there were lots this pretty in Transylvania County. Despite the compliment, taxes remain very low and we believe the lots are some of the most desirable land in the mountains.
We also believe the desirability is enhanced by the Ridge Haven ministry, the community, and our proximity to other beautiful areas, including historic Toxaway, Sapphire Valley, Highlands, Cashiers, Brevard, and Hendersonville, North Carolina. Our location is convenient to local shopping, medical, and fire services, I-26, the Asheville Airport, and the expanding metropolitan areas of Asheville, NC and Greenville, SC.
For many years, the Ridge Haven residential community and subdivisions have remained a secret. As the number of Ridge Haven residents and guests have increased, however, so has information about our residential community. The secret is quickly getting out! We invite you to join with the others who are considering a home in the mountains of the Ridge Haven community.
Our prayer is that the Lord will bring into our community those whom He desires. We pray that the experience and relationships established will edify and encourage each resident, serve to assist Ridge Haven in its ministries, and bring glory and honor to the Lord.

Washington, DC (written by Donna Leinwand Leger/USA Today) -- Stifling heat will suffocate the nation from Indiana to Florida on Monday, as millions of people from the Midwest to the East Coast struggle without power for a third straight day.
A heat wave that began last week will continue to drive temperatures into the 100s from Indianapolis to Atlanta through the Fourth of July holiday Wednesday.
Heat warnings have been issued for parts of Alabama, Florida, the Carolinas, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri and Ohio. In St. Louis, the National Weather Service warned of "dangerous heat" as temperatures climb to 106 Monday.
Already, the heat wave has "broken hundreds of daily records and quite a few all-time records," said Weather Service meteorologist Katie LaBelle.
Temperatures topped 109 in Georgia, the Carolinas, Tennessee and Kentucky over the weekend. Meteorologists in Jacksonville said the combination of 100-degree temperatures and high humidity there made it feel like 118.
Power companies said late Sunday it could take up to a week to restore electricity to more than 3 million who lost power after a ferocious summer storm cut a swath of destruction Friday night across 11 states, killing 14 people, toppling trees, knocking out traffic lights, and sending thousands of people to shelters and into community pools to escape the heat.
Some states declared emergencies and activated disaster-response agencies. Governors in New Jersey and Ohio called out the National Guard. The Department of Energy reported Sunday afternoon that 2.6 million people still lacked power. About 596,000 were without power in Maryland; 642,000 in Virginia; 61,000 in Washington, D.C.; 74,000 in Indiana; 700,000 in Ohio; 510,000 in West Virginia; and 125,000 in New Jersey.
First Energy said 560,000 of its customers in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ohio and West Virginia lost electricity. The company predicted it would need a week to restore power to the hardest hit areas, particularly in West Virginia, where the storm damaged more than 50 transmission lines and 70 substations.
Officials focused on the most vulnerable residents: children, the sick and the elderly.
In Washington, D.C., officials canceled summer school for Monday as they continued to assess storm damage. The city opened libraries and recreation centers and extended the hours at community pools to give residents without power respite from the heat. The city dispatched National Guard troops to powerless intersections to direct traffic and keep people away from debris and downed powerlines.
In Ohio, where an 80-mph wind collapsed a barn, killing a 70-year-old woman, National Guard troops mobilized to check neighborhoods for people needing help while residents without power gathered at malls, movie theaters and churches. At the Plains-Athens Community Church of the Nazarene in southeast Ohio, families on Sunday watched movies, played board games and cooled off with donated ice cream.
Maryland opened 74 cooling stations to help residents cope with the heat and was canvassing hospitals and nursing homes to ensure they have enough power to keep elderly and sick residents cool, Maryland Emergency Management Agency spokesman Ed McDonough said. The number of people without power is similar to power outages following hurricanes, he said.
"That's still an awful lot of people without power in the extreme heat we're having now," McDonough said. "It's still an event that's going to take days instead of hours. We didn't have the kind of warning you have with hurricane so they couldn't stage repair crews ahead of time."
In Virginia, where Gov. Bob McDonnell declared a state of emergency, the storm knocked out the 9-1-1 system. O'Donnell said the storms caused the most widespread, non-hurricane-related power outage in that state's history. A wastewater treatment plant in Lynchburg lost power and discharged at least 250,000 gallons of water into the James River.
"This is not a one-day situation," McDonnell said. "It is a multi-day challenge."
John Swift who lost power at his home in a Richmond suburb toughed out the power outage without complaint. The heat, he said, was the "biggest nuisance."
"I've got a camp stove. I've got cold showers. I don't watch TV. It's not a big deal," said Swift, 60.
Extreme heat in Colorado hampered firefighters as they tackled a patchwork of wildfires across the state. At Pine Ridge, 13 miles east of Grand Junction in the Bookcliffs, fire authorities said hot, dry conditions with southwest wind heightened the potential for "extreme fire behavior, intensity and growth."
The fire, which began with a lightning strike on June 27, has burned nearly 13,000 acres. Firefighters struggled to contain a massive fire in Waldo Canyon, three miles west of Colorado Springs, which has destroyed 346 homes and threatens 20,000 more. The city has canceled Fourth of July fireworks.
"The city is currently in extreme fire danger due to lack of moisture, heat and wind," city officials said in a press release.
In Dublin, Ohio, Lori Schaffert used a borrowed generator to alternately power her refrigerator and freezer while her 5-year-old daughter and a friend played board games and helped her make pickles from their garden's cucumbers.
"You come to appreciate the simple life a little more in these times," she said.

6. GET IT RIGHT AT THE SOURCE. Just because we can do so many things with digital audio, doesn't mean we should—it doesn't relieve us of the responsibility to capture great sounds at the source. Life is so much easier, projects come together so much faster, the process is far less painful, and the final product is so much better when the original tracks are in tune, are tonally solid, are recorded well, and aren't plagued by background noise. "Fix it in the mix" is just as much of a negative with digital as it was with analog.
I've been covering this in recent installments of my Guitar Tracks column here in Premier Guitar, but it bears mention in this space, as well. Upgrading or improving certain things in your signal path will make more difference than others. For example, I'm a firm believer in having the best monitors you can afford. You hear everything through those speakers or headphones, so you have to be able to trust them. I'm also a firm believer in capturing with the best quality possible at the source. This means great mics and preamps. And a few key pieces of processing gear, such as a nice analog compressor, can go a long way toward making the later digital representation of many of your signals that much better.
Looking to upgrade your studio? There are many possible ways to do it, but we recommend starting with great monitor speakers—you can't make it sound great if you aren't hearing it accurately. After that, we recommend boosting the quality of your microphones, preamps, and compressor. Here are a few suggestions for each in three different price ranges. ENGAGE BOOSTERS!

Order Standard by 2 p.m. ET 12/19 for 12/24 delivery. Standard $25+ orders ship free
Very very convenient for on the go SPF protection and moisturizing. Its a little bit oilier than I would've liked but good for the winter months when the air is much dryer.
Product works great as a moisturizer. I haven't used it as much as I thought I would. It's good to keep on hand and it's small and easy to take with you anywhere. Fits in a pocket perfectly.
While I am out enjoying the nice summer days I know at the same time that i also have the full safe protection on my lips.
Nice product don't use these type of things normally but came in handy on our cruise. No dried out or burnt lips.
It can take a while to cover your whole face with this thing, and it can be difficult to tell if you are actually getting the coverage you would like to be getting. But it definitely is a convenient alternative to carrying around a liquid or a spray.
My nose cheekbone areas burn easily in the sun, so like having this handy. This is a great product to have in your pocket for quick sun protection.
If you have any sensitivity to the chemicals in regular sunscreen, this stick is perfect. It is clear and goes on easily, and you can carry it with you. I love it because it is one of the few sunscreens I can use on my face that will not give me an itchy rash, and unlike zinc creams it doesn't make you look like a patchy ghost. It is made for guys, but I'm a girl and I love it anyway.
I wasn't sure I'd actually enjoy this product as it reminded me of a lip balm but it wasn't as bad as I had expected.
This stuff is much more convenient than carrying around a spray can or tube of sunscreen. For me it lasted about 4-5 hours before I had to re-apply. Felt a little greasy at first, but it fades.
Put this on in a Nats game, and it definitely wore off in the early innings, leaving me rather red and crispy. i guess it's convenient, though.

Farmers' Market
2013 Market Team Gearing Up!!!
Dates: June 10 to October 14, 2013
Location: Southwest Corner of Albion and Sheridan Roads, Chicago
Link Card Accepted
Market Hours
Summer Hours: 3 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Fall Hours: 2:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. (September 30 to October 14)
We look forward to the upcoming outdoor farmers market season and seeing you.
The Loyola University Chicago Farmer's Market seeks to increase access to healthy and sustainably grown fruits, vegetables, dairy, meat and prepared foods.
We bring you a relaxing atmosphere where you can purchase fresh local food.
The Market is a direct result of a student project in the Loyola's Solutions To Environmental Problems (STEP) Food Systems course. Conceptualized and planned by the students, the Market's goals are to:
- Increase access to fresh nutritious locally grown and produced foods to community members in a densely populated urban setting
- To contribute to Loyola's mission to serve those in need by providing a community gathering place where fresh, nutritious foods are affordable
- To support small growers that apply sustainable agriculture and land conservation practices
- To support small producers with entrepreneurial spirit
- Provide a place where all can purchase local and seasonal foods to support the "farm to plate" lifestyle
Farmers' Market Prices Competitive With Grocery Store Chains
Are you interested in purchasing vine-ripened tomatoes directly from the farmer that grew them but worry that they'll stretch your budget just a little too uncomfortably? Think again. Emerging investigations are beginning to challenge the notion that produce purchased from Farmers' Markets is more expensive than their supermarket counterparts. Sometimes, consumers can even purchase better quality food for less at their local Farmers' Market. For more on the affordability of local food, check out a compelling blog post by New York Times and Washington Post writer, Barry Estabrook.
- Is Local Food More Expensive? A Consumer Price Perspective on Local and Non-Local Foods Purchased in Iowa
- Vermont Farmers' Markets and Grocery Stores: A Price Comparison
Learn more about farmers' markets and how they are shaping our local food movement. Check out the Farmers' Market Coalition. The Coalition offers a variety of educational opportunities, support, and news about farmers markets across the nation.

Frank Ocean Announces New Album, Releases New Track
Plus there's a new video, a tour... someone's been busy.
We saw him debut a brand-new song at Coachella, and now it seems Frank Ocean has dealt with his Def Jam demons: he's just announced (via his Tumblr) the release of his second album — on the very same label that forgot about him a few years back. Here's an extract from our interview with Frank in Oyster #93:
Ariane Halls: So, you signed to Island Def Jam... What happened? They just ignored you for a year?
Frank Ocean: Well, ignoring me sounds like they knew I existed.
How does it happen that they sign you and then they don't know you exist?
Frank: Well, it happens that way when you have a lot of people with signing power in a company. And, you know, so one guy in the building could have a pet project or something and not really put anybody else in the building onto that project, and just leave that project sitting there until it's convenient for him to work on that project.
Nabil Elderkin: I was with Frank and a label executive yesterday, and the label executive said, "Oh man, I'm a big fan of your music!" and then, "Man, I wish I'd known you were on my label!"
Frank: He's not shitting you.
Nabil: This is... Well, it's one of the heads, put it that way. One of the big cats.
Frank: It's a true story. But it's all good and it was a gift; it was a gift. It allowed me to do my own thing and to not be fucked with.
(Nabil photographed the story for Oyster #93 and directed Frank's 'Novacane' clip — not to mention Kanye's new single, 'Mercy'.)
Here's the teaser video, a futuristic slow-jam about a lady called 'Cleopatra', which has had over 80,000 views since yesterday:
The video raises more questions than it answers, including:
- Who actually knows someone called Cleopatra?
- Can Frank Ocean make station wagons a 'thing'?
- Will Coldplay's Chris Martin guest on the record?
Keeping with the ancient Egyptian vibe, Frank followed up with a brand-new track called 'Pyramids'...
...and even announced a tour (see below — tickets are on sale now!). Def Jam have confirmed that the album, titled Channel Orange, will be released on 17 July 2012.

Best Home Security Services And Tips To Secure Your Home For The Summer
One of every 14 Americans will suffer a break-in, according to an article that appeared in The Journal Record, written by Andrew Leckey, with the title "Burglary Plague." He also said that this burglary plague has transformed the wireless home security systems industry into a business of $5 billion per year. The average homeowner spends $1,000 in each home security system, Leckey added.
Larceny is a crime involving the wrongful acquisition of the personal property of another person. – Wikipedia
The Top 10 Things To Prepare Your Home For The Summer
These tips are valid for wireless home security, or any other kind of security devices.
These are 4 tips according to the site HowStuffWorks:
1. Lock it up. Your doors should be made of metal or solid wood. The strike plate must be secured with four long screws. The lock should be a deadbolt.
2. Alarms. Alarms are not as effective as we might think, and this is the reason why you need to be certain to display the name of the company that installed the alarm prominently outside the home.
3. Do not broadcast. It is also important that a few people know about your next vacation to avoid many burglars from knowing it from Facebook or any other similar channel.
4. Outdoor lightning. You should use 100-watt bulbs to illuminate the outdoor parts of the house at night.
Wireless Home Security Systems
These are 3 tips from the San Diego Police Department:
1. Lock garages, sheds, and gates after each use.
2. Know who is knocking at your door before opening it. It is important to check the ID card or other photo ID (auto registration, for example) before you deal with any interviewer, peddler, or solicitor.
3. Stop leaving notes on your door when you are away from home.
These are 3 tips from the Metropolice of Louisville:
1. Interior lighting. You need to leave interior lights of your house on when you are away from home.
2. Dogs are a secondary security if they bark to give you a warning.
3. It is important that the number of your house is clearly visible from the street so that the police can identify it quickly.
The Best Home Security Services
These are the top home security services according to Asecurelife.com, a site that has been featured in Reuters, MarketWatch, and "The Street," among others.
1. FrontPoint Security. The firm offer a self-install security system that is second to none. One of the things that make FrontPoint Security stand out is its customer service. It also also provides a connection that is wireless and dedicated between both your control panel and sensors. Furthermore, Front Point uses a dedicated communication that is cellular between your monitoring station and panel. The price is transparent, which means that you will pay for what you get.
2. Protect America. This firm uses very similar equipment to that of FrontPoint Security. The DIY installation service will let you get up and running quickly. One of the best things about Protect America is that it has a very low start-up price ($19.99). Note that Protect America has a "C" rating with the BBB.org, which means that it has had troubles with its services and the customers have many complaints.
3. LifeShield. This is the only company in the market offering whole fire protection for your home. LifeShield offers professional installation and DIY kits.

In Joseph Beaumonts Morning Hymn, the poet speaks of his determination, despite human failings, to walk in the ways of Christ. At first the music is affirmative, but a section follows in which it mirrors the struggle of the poet to find the living light of Christ. Gradually the music, to a florid organ accompaniment, becomes increasingly jubilant, culminating in a determined melodic phrase at For Thy ways cannot be shown.
John Halls Pastoral Hymn is set to nimble, airy music with a gracefully flowing organ accompaniment in triplets which are taken up by the voices in their evocation of the Happy choristers of air wheeling around the throne of God in incessant praise. A fine example of Maws musical word-painting occurs when the lazy snails are portrayed in a slithering, ponderous phrase. The carolling returns for the last verse in which the poet sees the hand of God in all creation.
The emotional weight of the work falls on Evening Hymn, a rapt setting of Sir Thomas Brownes meditation on sleep and death. Out of a somnolent chordal cluster, created by a stepwise descent that will subsequently haunt the hymn, sopranos emerge with a tranquil melody, which is answered, chant-like by the other voices. Solos for two sopranos and alto lead to a solemn moment at sleep is a death, followed closely after by a section of two-part imitative writing. After a rich chord change at sleep again, the music rises to an emphatic climax as the poet finds assurance through faith.

"I have galaxies hidden between my bones and I will love you until the stars burn out.
(via thatkindofwoman)
"It was love at first sight, at last sight, at ever and ever sight.
365 xoxo
"I am not the first person you loved.
You are not the first person I looked at
with a mouthful of forevers. We
have both known loss like the sharp edges
of a knife. We have both lived with lips
more scar tissue than skin. Our love came
unannounced in the middle of the night.
Our love came when we'd given up
on asking love to come. I think
that has to be part
of its miracle.This is how we heal.
I will kiss you like forgiveness. You
will hold me like I'm hope. Our arms
will bandage and we will press promises
between us like flowers in a book.
I will write sonnets to the salt of sweat
on your skin. I will write novels to the scar
of your nose. I will write a dictionary
of all the words I have used trying
to describe the way it feels to have finally,
finally found you.And I will not be afraid
of your scars.I know sometimes
it's still hard to let me see you
in all your cracked perfection,
but please know:
whether it's the days you burn
more brilliant than the sun
or the nights you collapse into my lap
your body broken into a thousand questions,
you are the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
I will love you when you are a still day.
I will love you when you are a hurricane.

New Atlantis
June 14, 2010
by Christopher Ford
In accepting the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo on December 10, 2009, President Barack Obama described as "urgent" the effort "to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons, and to seek a world without them." In announcing the award two months earlier, the Norwegian Nobel Committee made special note of "Obama's vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons," a vision that "has powerfully stimulated disarmament and arms control negotiations." But realizing this vision will require detailed consideration of several tough questions — questions that the movement for global nuclear disarmament has not yet seriously addressed. How the world will actually get there, and how we all might be expected to stay there, must be thought through before we embark on a project of radical disarmament.
Some disarmament advocates believe that the moment has not yet arrived to worry about the nuts and bolts of how a disarmed world would actually work, such as the means by which the international community would be able to deter regime "breakout" by a country keen on using the disarmament of others to make itself the planet's only nuclear weapons holder. Indeed, the prospect of total nuclear disarmament is so transcendentally appealing in some quarters that such practical challenges and fundamental questions are only of distant interest, if any at all. Some disarmament advocacy groups are so far removed from reality that they argue that reliance upon "deterrence" in security policymaking should end altogether — that it is possible not just to end the use of nuclear weapons in deterrence, but that we need never rely upon anything to "deter" anything else ever again.
But back down here on Earth, serious advocates of disarmament are increasingly coming to recognize that unless they can provide compelling responses to some crucial challenges, their goal will only further recede from sight. In part, the challenges are technical; in part, they are political; in part, they point to fundamental ethical concerns. They amount to more than just a critique of the disarmament movement's ends and proposed means. Taken together, these questions compose a broad agenda for disarmament research for the months and years ahead.

Longreach is a man-portable system that allows for the rapid conveyance of temporary, water-activated buoyancy devices to a drowning victim's location. It is designed to allow a victim to remain buoyant while rescue personnel prepare the appropriate response to the situation. The rescue package uses hydrophobic or rapidly expanding foam to provide buoyancy once the package contacts the water. This allows the package to be vastly smaller in size than any currently existing buoyancy device. Equipped with a light for attracting attention the Rescue Package can be propelled over 150m. Longreach is also equipped with Para-Flares for night-time Illumination. Longreach is designed to be simple to manufacture and easy to handle. Ideally used by emergency services personnel or a ship's crew, Longreach has the potential to significantly reduce the number of drownings at sea.
Every year hundreds of people are drowned in situations where rescue systems are present, but unable to reach the victim in a timely fashion. 'Longreach' is designed to accommodate a wide range of users from the beach and small fishing boats through to super tankers. It is a man-portable system that allows for the rapid conveyance of temporary, water-activated buoyancy devices to a victim's location in a situation where other forms of rescue and safety devices would fail. It is designed to allow a victim to remain buoyant while rescue personnel prepare the appropriate response to the rescue situation.
In the Development of the Life Ring, the projectile that is launched to the vicinity of the victim, a number of considerations needed to be made. The focus was on developing a method of inflation that was distinctly different and better than all those that have come before it. A foam based inflation presents the best possible balance between safety, ease of manufacture and cost. By using expanding foam as the core of the rescue package many problems typically associated with water-activated inflation are negated. Weight and cost are reduced while reliablity and puncture resistance are increased. Longreach is currently in the prototyping and testing phase and is due to start field trials with Surf Life Saving NSW (in Australia) in the coming months.
