To The Editor:
The Massena Central High School Hall of Fame Committee would like to thank you for helping to make the 24th annual induction weekend on Sept. 13 and 14 another huge success.
Key Bank, who sponsors the induction ceremony and provides for the award plaques and certificates. The Hall of Fame is a self sustaining organization, and without their financial support the induction, as is, would not be possible.
Tom Siddon and Dee Dee Cappione for their help and support of the golf tournament.
The MCHS Food Service Staff - Peter Bertrand, Chrissy Phillips, Dawn Fregoe, Tracie Huddleston, Vickie Montondo and Fran Oakes for the breakfast provided on Saturday morning.
All the behind the scenes people who work to make the induction a success - Claudeen Watkins for program booklets, plaque organization and correspondence; Kevin McBath for certificates; Maureen Donnelly for printing; Deb Croff for name tags and correspondence; Bill Sequin and staff for set up for the ceremony - Jerry LaShomb and Perry Hayden.
Darren Delosh, Mike Baines and Steve Robert for the wall being re-built and organized.
Tim Hayes, director of Athletics, for all his behind the scenes work and support.
The Massena Volunteer Fire Department and Auxiliary for sponsoring the reception after the ceremony. It was wonderful, as usual.
Coachs Corner (Al Chilton and staff) for the post-game reception.
Sandy Cook and WMSA for their continued great coverage of the induction ceremony and halftime.
Jon Hunkins and the MCHS Pep Band.
The Courier-Observer - Bob Beckstead and Ryne Martin - for their coverage of the event from beginning to end. It was super.
Jean Lennon and Le-anne White for selling Hall of Fame shirts and jackets.
Mike Zappia for Hall of Fame clothing.
All who helped rebuild the Wall of Fame - especially Massena Savings and Loan - Kirk Wilmshurst - without them and numerous others support it would have never happened. Thanks.
To all who nominated and hopefully will continue to nominate.
The Red Raider Hall of Fame is long in pride and tradition. We are especially proud that we can continue to honor our excellence in athletics and those athletes who are such a special part of our community.
Thanks to all mentioned and probably more - without you none of this would be possible.
Hall of Fame Committee

When you connect to a server that is running Microsoft Exchange Server by using a Windows Phone-based device, synchronization fails. Additionally, you receive an error message that resembles one of the following:

Error code: <ErrorCode>
Mail.Contoso.com requires that certain security policies be enforced. Try syncing again to apply the policies. If you keep seeing this message, contact a support person or your service provider.
Last tried x minutes ago.
Error code: <ErrorCode>
In these error messages, the placeholder <ErrorCode> represents one of the following error codes:
This issue occurs if an Exchange ActiveSync mailbox policy was implemented that uses parameters that the Windows Phone-based device cannot completely enforce.
The Exchange Client Access server responds to the device with an HTTP status of 449 when the device cannot enforce every parameter within the Exchange ActiveSync mailbox policy. Each successive synchronization attempt will fail with an HTTP status of 449 while the current Exchange ActiveSync policy is in place.
To resolve this issue, change an existing Exchange ActiveSync policy, or create a new Exchange ActiveSync policy, so that the policy applies to Windows Phone-based devices. To do this, take one of the following actions:
To work around this issue on a Windows Phone 8-based device, enable the Allow Non-provisionable Devices parameter in your Exchange ActiveSync policy.
Important The Allow Non-provisionable Devices parameter lets devices synchronize. This is true even when policies that the device can enforce do not match the Exchange ActiveSync policy parameters that are configured on the server.

For information about how to change or create Exchange ActiveSync policies, go to the following Microsoft TechNet websites:
Common issuesMicrosoft Support frequently receives support requests for issues about ActiveSync Mailbox policy enforcement. The most common cause of these issues is the presence of unsupported policy parameters. When the AllowNonProvisionableDevices parameter is set to False, policy parameters must be enforced for the device to be provisioned successfully, unless there is a valid reason for the policy parameter to be ignored.
Supported policy parameters are listed earlier in this article. When you troubleshoot issues about policies, the existing policies should be reviewed for the presence of an unsupported parameter that cannot be ignored. This includes both default and customized policies. A detailed list of policies and their enforcement is available on the following Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) webpage:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee200827(v=exchg.80).aspxThe following example details an issue with the current version of Windows Phone 8, and will be addressed in a future update.
When the policy parameter Require Encryption on Storage Card is enabled, Windows Phone 8 devices misreport the presence of an SD card, even if the device has no SD card slot. The policy enforcement occurs, provisioning fails, and the device cannot be synchronized.
According to MSDN topic 188.8.131.52 (RequireStorageCardEncryption
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee179036.aspx)) about the policy parameter, if the policy parameter is present but the device does not support removable storage, the parameter should be ignored, and the device should be able to synchronize.
To work around this issue, use the methods that are mentioned in the "Resolution" and "Workaround" sections for the Windows Phone 8 devices.

Fruitport Township police attempted to make a traffic stop of the woman's 1999 Audi A6 in the Village of Fruitport, but the car fled, said Sgt. Greg Rotman of the Ottawa County Sheriff's Department.
Ottawa County deputies joined the pursuit in Spring Lake Township and followed the car to the area of 144th Avenue and State Road, where the woman lost control of the Audi at about 12:06 a.m. Rotman said the Audi went off the road and struck a power pole, three vehicles and a house.
The house was occupied, but none of the residents were injured.
The woman was taken to Hackley Hospital in Muskegon with minor injuries, Rotman said. Her name was not being released pending an investigation.

Got one of these shirts on a whim for layering and was pleasantly surprised. The main material in really soft and breathable, whereas the sidepanels under the arms give it a bit of structure--they are a made out of a light waffle material sort of like a thermal. In terms of feel and fit this a better standard of top than the average T. I'm ca. 5'10"/177cm and 170lbs./77kg and like a close to the body fit so I went with a small; I hang dry to prevent possible shrinking, though. ... read more
This hoodie is a bit warmer than I thought it would be, which is great. It is a cooler weather jacket, really. I'm ca. 5'10/177cm and 170lbs/77kg and a small fits me fine--I wouldn't really describe this as slim fit, it's barely any trimmer than a regular fit. Nonetheless, I bought a medium as well so I can throw a crewneck sweater under it for when the weather hovers around 0 degrees celsius on certain fall mornings. (Even then there is still plenty of room in it.) So, like I say, it can be worn as a sweater or a jacket. It is nice soft material with a fuzzy interior with an almost neoprene-like feel to the trim. ... read more
For the money a very solid option, for a lightweight, easy moving tight. I would definitely size down one size on these, as they do relax after one wear. Only complaint is that the crotch is limited in space... ... read more
i've just been running in this top for about an hour and the fabric is so soft and smooth and wicks away the sweat so you can't feel it. it looks good and fits well so it is stylish and effective. no nipple rub either. ... read more
Good for winter training. I bought the Solar Red colour (bright orange really) for cycling/running when it gets cold/dark. Nice size & shape. Slim fit, not big and baggy. Large size fits me perfectly. I'm 6'1 / 12.5st (185cm / 80kg). Only loses 1 star because the description says its "ready for whatever the weather brings". Its not, it will keep you warm but its not waterproof at all. (Apart from the waterproof zips which seem a bit pointless if the rest of the material isn't waterproof!) ... read more
I'm 6', 180 lbs, medium build. The Tee fits great and true to size. I've worn it once, and it is easy to wear in many occasions because of its basic color. I would recommend it for workouts, runs and even casual wear. ... read more
So happy with this purchase, it is even nicer in person. Very nice fabric and well made. It does fit very slim though, so beware what kind of hoodie you are looking for. This is not a loose-fit chill hoodie. ... read more
I'm a bit of an Adidas fanatic, only clothing I will wear. I'm a PT so like to be comfortable yet stylish and look professional and Adidas clothing ticks all the boxes. Great garment, feels great , looks fab and is very comfy. ... read more
I bought a couple of pairs of these about a year ago when they had a different style and different fabric. The fabric used to be 85% polyester and 15% cotton, but it felt like 100% cotton. These are 100% polyester, and they feel like 100% polyester. I preferred the original fabric. The raglan sleeves I can live with. The first two T-shirts I bought were "medium", but I decided to go for "small" this time. I am 5'9" and 148 lbs with a 39" chest. The small shirts are quite tight around my chest and shoulder, but not too small. The medium shirts are looser, so choose your size based on the fit you like. The sizing is, in my opinion, consistent and correct. ... read more
This is my 2nd Men's Ultimate Teeshirt. I thought the shirt was a darker blue but ended up being on the more purple side. That didn't matter because the shirt fits great and is super comfortable. Wearable for the gym, as a layer, to sleep, all day everyday. ... read more
This product fit on me and I am tall and my arms very long. So I choose one number up only for cause. Fit very well a bit loose on waist. But I prefer this way. A lot pockets, what is good. I love this hoodie. it is very warm when it is very cold on street. Thanks Adidas ... read more
I bought these shirts for my husband because he is outdoors in the heat of the summer, sometimes for hours. He LOVES these shirts... they keep him cool by keeping him dry. We came back and bought more after the first try. ... read more
I've used mine for a while now and its pretty good. Material quality is very good, no itching or rubbing so far. I am 5.8" and size small fit is decent, but I wish it to be just a bit shorter in sleeve and hem length. ... read more
Comes up slightly tight on me (when compared to shirts of the same size) but that's given that the top is intended for training. It looks great in black and has a bright contrast seam on the inside. Hand pockets don't zip. Zips are the stiff waterproof style ones, so not easy to open on the run (if you do that sort of thing). ... read more
Great tech hoodie for runs and just wearing around casually as a stand alone piece early mornings or at night during fall/spring. Thumbholes are sometimes a bit of a nuissance but otherwise the hoddie fits great and washes easily. The midnight colour definitely stands out! Fit is true to size. ... read more
The not so soft Climalite fabric is nearly see through. They are for fitting,and lay nice. However, I am 6'1" and they come down past my butt. Also, the bottom hem is very snug. This may help them stay tucked in, but I don't care for it. The material is not as soft as I would have hoped. This may be due to whatever Climalite treatment they have. I am hoping they soften after a few washings. I may replace these soon with a premium brand. ... read more
I'am 5 45, 160lbs. I usually wear slim-fit medium shirts and pants from both adidas performance, and originals. If you want a slim-fit/muscle-fit, buy a small size, which is what I did and still comfortable. But if you want some more room and does not care about the shape of your body, but a medium. ... read more
Before I make a purchase on something I always read reviews. I think there is no better way of finding out about a product, than from the ones who have already purchased and used it. My husband has always been very picky when it comes to short sleeves. Thanks to Adidas, I have found him the perfect one. He said the most comfortable fitting shirt he has had. The great thing about this shirt, is the sleeves. No seam across the shoulder. My husband loves this shirt so much that I'm going to get him one of every color that he likes. He wears a large, but the x-large works great. So to all that complain about the shirt being to snug, go up one size, you'll be happy you did. I turn the shirt inside out when I wash it, and hang to dry. Looks great! Can't go wrong when buying Adidas!!! ... read more
I have had bunch of the Ultimate Ts in the past. The feel of this is not quite as soft as previous versions. For a few extra dollars, I think upgrading to the Aeroknit is worth it. If you want to stick w a basic T, this is still a pretty good choice. ... read more
The daybreaker is great for winter as its nice and lightweight and it keeps me really warm. With three pockets there is plenty of storage and I love the fit design of the hood. I wear the daybreaker to and from training and have found it holds up pretty well in the rain too. I normally wear a medium however i found the medium to be quite short around the waist and so i went for the large. ... read more
Really good tank, but length is inconsistent. You'll buy 2 packs today and wait 2 week and buy another few packs and the length size differs very noticeably and it a honestly an extreme inconvenience not knowing what ur gettin. At times its really bad and an extreme inconvenience. I prefer my tanks long due to the fact that after several washes they shrink anyway, but overall this TANK is better than any other Tank out. I guarantee that. ... read more
I've bought several Ultimate and Clima Ultimate T shirts over the past several years. The Size Large Ultimate T shirts produced a few years ago fit perfectly. All of the Clima Ultimate T shirts in size Large, while long enough, are tight across my shoulders and chest. Although finding that mildly annoying, I kept the Clima Ultimate T shirts while attributing the difference in fit to their being a slightly different style from the Ultimate T shirts. Ultimate T shirts I bought a few months ago fit well, however, those I purchased just a few weeks ago run small like the Clima Ultimate shirts. Why is there such inconsistency in the sizing of these shirts? ... read more
I bought an "Ultimate Tee" at a retail store. The small was a bit tight for a general workout shirt, so I got a medium. Perfect! So perfect that I immediately bought 5 more online. When the new ones arrived, they were not so ultimate... the sleeve cut had changed (raglan sleeve, not inset like the one I had already) and the shirt was quite a bit longer. The neck ribbing was also a little thicker and cheaper looking. Bummed out they tried to improve on perfection. The new fit is a bit sloppy. Still a good workout shirt though. Go with dark colors if you plan to sweat a lot - you'll look like a sweaty mess otherwise. ... read more
first of all, this "jacket" looks very sharp and expensive. It also has those little holes for the thumbs to keep it rolling up. People will look! Although they have a front pocket to stash your iPod/phone in it, there is no hole for the wire - WHOOPS! I bought it one size smaller (I usually wear XL but i bought L) and it fits PERFECT. It is not for "heavy" cold or snow, but for the mild cold we have in Greece its perfect. ... read more
Not much more you can ask for in a quality tank. I really like the way it fits snug despite me being a thinner guy. The cotton is very soft, no rubbing or itching. I've worn as undergarments, for leisure, and I've even played ball in one during an impromptu pick up game. They've performed well enough for me to have purchased quite a few in both colors, white & black. I did notice one begin to seperate at the neck band after a few washes, but one in maybe around 15 didn't upset me too much. The only other issue I find is in the price...wished they'd be more around $20. But overall I like them. ... read more

Emotional Fitness: Biggest mistakes in dating
For those who are entering or re-entering the dating world, it can seem like a minefield. The do's and don'ts have shifted some over the years, but avoiding the following is always a good idea:
• Talking about your ex, your conquests, or yourself too much. This would be considered TMI; no one really likes to be compared to someone in your past, and the best way to get to know someone is to ask questions. Most people find it flattering that you want to know more about them. Go easy and don't make it seem like an interrogation or a therapy session.
• Getting drunk. Whether you throw up or not. Getting smashed early on could easily ruin your chances. However, if both you and your date like the idea, perhaps you should consider a 12-step meeting over a movie.
• Having sex too soon. These days it can kill you, but most likely it will kill the other person's desire. Rule of thumb is that you spend at least 36 hours talking and getting to know each other before jumping into bed. And yes, you do need to ask those sexual history questions. It's awkward, but necessary.
• Talking on your phone or texting. Taking calls or doing more than glancing at your phone to see who called or sent a message is just plain rude. Besides, the person you are with is going think that you aren't that interested in him or her if you spend the entire evening gazing lovingly into the retinal display of your iPhone.
• Forgetting your wallet. Even if your date has invited you and offered to pay, you should at least be prepared to offer to split the bill or leave the tip. There also is the possibility that you will need some cash to catch a cab in case your date is a dud.
• Not taking a shower or bath. OK, I know this seems obvious to many people, but if you think you are at your best right after a run or a tennis game, think again. Though you might feel great internally, the person you are meeting may not appreciate it the same way. Get yourself neat and clean before you try to impress a potential new love.
• Coming on too strong. So you think you really like the person you are seeing. You want to reach out and touch or hold him or her; you want to take this person away with you. Best advice here is to hold back until you know the feelings are mutual. For many, being too forward or flirty is a red flag.
The idea here is to make as few mistakes as possible and don't beat yourself up if you step in it a time or two. When that happens, remind yourself that you're getting out there and looking for someone. That is a brave and wonderful thing to do, and your life will be a sweeter place to be.

Obama Isn't in the Mood for Compromise
President Barack Obama had a simple message for Republicans in Congress: Do it my way.
Forget about shutting down the government to force spending cuts, he told the GOP in Tuesday night's State of the Union address. Don't think about defaulting on the debt and, while you're at it, close tax loopholes.
Clearly, Obama wasn't in a mood to compromise.
The president's speech doubled down on his hard-charging inaugural address in promoting liberal Democratic policy ideas, without ceding any ground to Republicans in Congress.
And from Obama's point of view, why should he? The president is fresh off a convincing re-election victory and Republicans are soul-searching over their party's future, increasingly reluctant to put up a fight. The GOP leadership already flinched by giving in on the debt ceiling and tax hikes. Obama seems determined to see what else he can get out of them.
At a time when Republicans are insisting on spending cuts, Obama pushed more public spending on universal preschool, construction work on bridges and schools and a jobs program rebuilding vacant homes in rundown neighborhoods. He pushed for an increase in the minimum wage to $9 an hour, with future increases tied to the cost of living. And he continued to push in support of left-leaning social issues including gun control, immigration reform, climate change and advancing equal rights for gays.
These were issues he didn't prioritize in his first term as he grappled with two wars and a recession - and faced a re-election bid in which he needed to campaign for America's middle. But fresh off his convincing victory, unburdened by the prospect of another campaign, he has a rare and fleeting moment to push a second-term agenda that could shape his legacy.
The risk is he will alienate Republicans and accelerate gridlock. But Obama warned that voters won't look kindly on a stalemate.
"The American people don't expect government to solve every problem," he argued. "They don't expect those of us in this chamber to agree on every issue. But they do expect us to put the nation's interests before party. They do expect us to forge reasonable compromise where we can. For they know that America moves forward only when we do so together and that the responsibility of improving this union remains the task of us all."

Star Post
Redirected from Star Posts
this wiki
Star Posts (再スタート・マーカー Sai Sutāto Mākā?, lit. "Sai Start Marker") also referred to as Point Markers (ポイントマーカー Pointo Mākā?), Lampposts, and Check Points, are distinguished markers and common objects in games of Sonic the Hedgehog series. Star Posts made their first appearance in Sonic the Hedgehog (1991) and serve as the series' progress markers and are found exclusively in the Zones. Passing through a Star Post, makes the players' progress up to that point in the Zone will be saved and when the player loses a life on the same place, the playable character will start over at the point of the last Star Post they passed.
Star Posts are similar in design to, but smaller than, street lights in real life, as the design of Star Posts has been simple and tends to be the same throughout the series: a yellow/blue post and a stretch rod with a bulb on the top. The way the rod spins has varied, but usually in 2D games it rotates 360 degrees twice and after that goes to the same vertical position while the bulb part changes its color or flickers. Star Posts have a different appearance in 3D titles from Sonic Adventure onwards, as there are two posts on opposite ends of each other, creating a gate the player can pass through. While going through the Star Posts, both lamp parts start spinning above the posts twice until they get to the vertical position. Games such as Sonic Unleashed and console versions of Sonic Generations, the passage in-between two posts is widened particularly in 3D areas to make it easier to pass through. Certain games in the series don't use Star Posts as check points at all and have completely different objects being used (see here).
Star Posts function as check points for each point of the Zone. When the player passes through one and loses his/her life or gets time out, the playable character returns to the previous Star Post. This does not apply when the player gets Game Over for losing all lives. Beside saving a player's progress, the Star Posts have also served for several other purposes. In earlier games such as Sonic the Hedgehog 2, the Star Posts also served as an entry point to Special Stages and Bonus Stages in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Sonic & Knuckles. In 3D games, it can give a time bonus between the earlier and latest Star Posts and can level up the player in Sonic Heroes.
Game appearances
Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)
The first appearance of Star Posts is in 16-bit version of Sonic the Hedgehog, where they originally were called Lampposts in the American instruction manual of the game.[1] Lampposts have a simple design with a yellow post, grey stretch rod and a blue bulb on the top. When Sonic touched a lamp post, the bulb changed colors from blue to red. These lamp posts were used as checkpoints, which started as a tradition in the series.
However, in the 8-bit version of the game with same name, Lampposts are replaced with Arrow Monitors which generally also replace Star Posts in Game Gear and Master System titles. By jumping to the monitor with "↓" icon on it, the player's progress was saved.
Sonic the Hedgehog 2
Star Posts made their next appearance in Sonic the Hedgehog 2, now with a different design. Star Posts have a yellow shapely post, grey stretch rod and a lamp on the top which has a red circle with black center with white star in it. Star Posts are also featured in multiplayer zones.
If the player touches a Star Post and has over fifty rings, a lamp starts flashing red and yellow while spinning Star Circle appears above it. If the player jumps into the ring, he/she is transported to a Special Stage, where the player has to collect amount of rings to get one of Chaos Emeralds. If the player doesn't enter to the star circle it will disappear after while. After Special Stage the player will be transported back (with zero rings) to the Star Post where the star circle was located.
In the locked-on game Knuckles in Sonic 2, Knuckles retains the number of Rings he had at the last touched Star Post when respawning the stage at that point or after entering a Special Stage, which makes earning the seven Chaos Emeralds from all Special Stages easier.

Star Posts appear in Sonic the Hedgehog CD, once again called Lamppost in the instruction manual. They also have a similar design as the original Sonic the Hedgehog, with a yellow stylistic post, grey stretch rod and a blue bulb on the top.
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles
Star Posts make an appearance in Sonic the Hedgehog 3, its add-on continuation Sonic & Knuckles and the lock-on Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles. Star Posts have a similar design to Sonic the Hedgehog 2, with a slight difference. The Star Circle also appears, though entering it now takes the player to a Bonus Stage rather than a Special Stage. If the player collects over fifty rings and enters the star circle in Sonic the Hedgehog 3, the player will be sent to a Gumball Machine type of Bonus Stage where he or she could collect power-ups such as lives, elemental shields, and rings. Different looking Star Posts are also featured in the Competition Mode of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 as a starting point and goal.
With Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Sonic & Knuckles combined, the player is able to transport into all three Bonus Stages after passing Star Posts with certain amount of Rings. As collecting 20-34 Rings, the player transports from yellow star circle into Rotating Maze/Slot Machine type Bonus Stage, getting 35-49 Rings will transport from red star circle into Glowing Spheres type Bonus Stage and getting fifty and more Rings transports from silver star circle into regular Gumball Machine-type Bonus Stage.
Sonic the Hedgehog Triple Trouble
The Game Gear counterpart of Star Posts, Arrow Monitors, appear in Sonic the Hedgehog Triple Trouble. Like in the 8-bit version of Sonic the Hedgehog, breaking it saves progress. Arrow monitors don't appear in act 3 of zones, although one was featured in the third act of last zone, Atomic Destroyer Zone.
Sonic 3D Blast
Star Posts are replaced by Giant Rings as check points in Sonic 3D Blast, which are actually used to lead Flickies of the island into it. If the player lose a life, they restart at the point where the Giant Ring was located.
Sonic Blast
The Game Gear counterpart of Star Posts, Arrow Monitors, appear in Sonic Blast, as destroying an arrow monitor will save the game's progress. Arrow Monitors don't appear in third acts of zones, which feature bosses.
Sonic Adventure
Star Posts, now renamed Point Markers, make an appearance in Sonic Adventure. Point Markers have red colored posts and blue round centers with yellow star symbols on them, while on top of them is a blue bulb that turns yellow when it reaches the vertical position.
The game introduces the concept of a two posts gate in action stages, where the player can go through them to save their progress and also give a time bonus between the earlier posts to the current ones.
Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure
Star Posts in Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure have a similar design to those in Sonic the Hedgehog 2, though they don't activate a star circle to enter a Special Stage.
Sonic Adventure 2
Point Markers make appearance in Sonic Adventure 2, as having the same design from Sonic Adventure. Point Markers can be found in Action Stages of Sonic, Shadow, Tails and Dr. Eggman. As saving the player's progress, they can also earn the player items depending how many Rings he or she has when they pass through the Point Markers. The pattern follows:
|Rings collected
|5 extra Rings
|10 extra Rings
|20 extra Rings
|Speed Shoes
|Barrier/Magnetic Barrier (unless already using Barrier)
Sonic Advance games
Point Markers make appearance in all Sonic Advance games, being called Check Points and resembling those from Sonic Adventure. In Sonic Advance there are now only 2 check points in each act of a zone. In Egg Rocket Zone, there are no check points, but the game save its progress four times at certain sections as the rocket starts out of launch section and removes portions of rocket during the flight until its reaching to end of earth's atmosphere.
Checkpoints in Sonic Advance 2 are different looking, as having a post with orange and white stripes and its lamp part is blue while it have rotating "C" on it, which blows to yellow orb as the player goes through it. In the game, there are now more checkpoints than two in each act. Checkpoints also don't appear in boss act of the stages.
In Sonic Advance 3, Checkpoints return their design from Sonic Advance, but these objects are now also located more than 2 checkpoints per one act. Checkpoints don't appear in vs. boss act of the stage.
Sonic Heroes
Checkpoints make an appearance in Sonic Heroes with a complete redesign, as they are now are plates which have red circles on the ground with a yellow star inside them, surrounded by a blue glow. Passing through them saves the player's progress and gives a Power Core to whichever character is in the lead.
Shadow the Hedgehog
Checkpoints, renamed Save Points, appear in Shadow the Hedgehog. There is not a yellow star nor is there a blue glow, but it will save the player's progress and allows the player to warp to other points they have visited before. This can be very useful if the player forgets something at another point of the stage.
Sonic Rush series
Checkpoints also appear in both Sonic Rush games and have a similar function to Checkpoints in 2D games: saving the player's progress and allowing the player to start from the last Checkpoint if they lose a life. In Sonic Rush, Checkpoints are similar to those from Sonic Heroes, while in Sonic Rush Adventure, Checkpoints have a spinning ring above the chalice and a yellow star at the center. As the player goes through, the ring disappears, and the star turns yellow and starts spinning slowly. This also fills up the Tension Gauge.
Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)
Point Markers reappear in Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), with the returning same design as the Sonic Adventure games. It likewise saves the player's progress and gives a time bonus.
Sonic Rivals games
Although Star Posts don't appear in Sonic Rivals and Sonic Rivals 2, there are similar kinds of posts that are at the start point and act as a goal sign. Both of posts have a round star sign on top of them.
Sonic Unleashed
Point Markers appear in Sonic Unleashed, once again called Check Points and saving the player's progress. Check Points look like a gate with lamps hidden; the lamps open up when the player crosses it. The interval between the posts has been expanded considerably so a player can not miss the Check Point. Also posts have a light laser between on them. In the PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 version, the checkpoints also record Sonic's speed at the moment he passes through it. As PlayStation 2/Wii versions have mission based levels, Check Points don't appear at all.
Sonic the Hedgehog 4
Star Posts appear in both episodes of Sonic the Hedgehog 4, having the same design from Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and being more detailed in Episode II. In both episodes it serves as a checkpoint from which the player can restart if he or she loses a life.
Sonic Colors
Checkpoints make another appearance in Sonic Colors. Instead of the lamps hidden like in Sonic Unleashed, they are in position similarly to Sonic Adventure. The Wii version has the Point Makers design while the Nintendo DS version features its design from Sonic Rush. There are no Checkpoints at all in Terminal Velocity.
Sonic Generations
Star Post make an appearance in Sonic Generations, where they are nearly the same as in Sonic Colors with the exception of having light in the middle instead of light lasers. Star Posts appear in both classic and modern acts and several challenges. When passing through it a time is shown on the screen showing the time difference the player took to pass through it between their fastest run and the current run
Sonic Lost World
Star Posts make another appearance in Sonic Lost World, repeating its role and having the same look from Sonic Generations. However, Star Posts haven't been seen to feature light lasers or lighting in the middle, and when the player transports to the two dimensional sections of the zone, there is only one Star Post seen instead of a two posts gate. Nevertheless, the Nintendo 3DS version of the game seem to use two Star Posts gate even in 2D sections. In the Wii U version, when the player loses more than once, the floating Item Box with wing mark shows up above Star Posts, that after breaking it, transports the player to the next Star Post, thus skipping the section in the Zone. In the 3DS version, a Special (golden) RC Vehicle appears when the player has loses lives enough times.
Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal
Star Posts make another appearance in Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal, where they repeat its role from main games. However, they have slightly different high-tech look and the only known major difference in this incarnation of them is that after passing through them, a tick sign will appear.
Sonic Runners
Star Posts make another appearance in Sonic Runners, where they function both as regular check points and deposit banks to carry all previously collected rings. This time, there are only single Star Posts in each section either after beating Dr. Eggman and speeding up the running pace or at the middle-point of the stage usually at the higher pathways.
Other game appearanes
A single Lamppost appears Sonic Jam, having the same design from the original Sonic the Hedgehog. A lamppost with the design from the original Sonic the Hedgehog appears as a statue in Sonic's Schoolhouse. A single Lamppost also appears as part of Green Hill Zone in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and returns along with the stage in Super Smash Bros. for the Nintendo 3DS. If the player punches it, the round lamp part starts spinning and can damage players if it is touched again. Checkpoints also appear in both Sonic Jump and Sonic Jump 2.
Arrow Monitor
Arrow Monitors (マーカー Mākā?, lit. "Marker") are the replacement of Star Posts in Game Gear and Master System games, as these objects appear in the 8-bit version of Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic Triple Trouble and Sonic Blast. It is usually a monitor with a red or yellow "↓" icon on it. By breaking the monitor, it will save the player's progress. Arrow monitors don't appear in the 8-bit version of Sonic the Hedgehog 2, although unused in-game graphics are in the game's data.
Bells (ベル Beru?) are replacements of Star Posts that only appear in Tails Skypatrol. The yellow bell floats in the air, and when the player touches it as Tails, it will save the player's progress. The player also starts from the last bell after losing a life.
Check Point
Check Points (チェックポイント Chekkupointo?), also referred to as Checkpoints or Save Points, are variants of Star Posts that appear in Sonic Heroes, Shadow the Hedgehog, Sonic Rush, Sonic Rush Adventure and Nintendo DS version of Sonic Colors. Check Points are usually plates with red circles on the ground and a yellow star inside them, surrounded by a blue glow. In Sonic Heroes Check Points awards the player with a Power Core depending who's in the lead, while in Shadow the Hedgehog, it can warp the player to other Check Points the player has visited before.
In other media
Sonic the Comic
|It has been suggested that this article or section be separated into Star Post (Sonic the Comic).
In Sonic the Comic, Star Posts appeared frequently in early issues. Star Posts existed all over planet Mobius. They can be activated by Sonic the Hedgehog when he runs around the post at super speed, which creates an energy field on the bulb through which anyone can jump. In this way, the Star Posts allowed instantaneous travel to any other Star Post, as well as access to the Special Zone (which in the comics was an alternate dimension).
As the most common method of access to the Special Zone, Doctor Robotnik attempted to use the Badnik Sonic to destroy the Special Zone when he set up his Special Zone Egg Fortress, but he was thwarted by Sonic.[2]
Following Robotnik's conquest of Mobius, the Freedom Fighters obtained a Star Post for their own use. It was stored initially in their secret underground base,[3] and later carted around with them while they were on the run disguised as Bob Beaky's Travelling Circus. Robotnik eventually succeeded in destroying all of the Star Posts on Mobius, except for the one carried around by the Freedom Fighters and those on the Floating Island (which were used to transport the rescued Emerald Hill Folk to the Mushroom Hill Zone).[4] The Freedom Fighters' Star Post was also used by the Kintobor Computer to separate Super Sonic's Emerald Energy away from Sonic, which caused Sonic and Super Sonic to split into two distinct individuals.[5]
Later, Captain Plunder also acquired a Star Post, which was affixed to the wheel of his new pirate ship. The pirates used the Star Post to travel to the Special Zone.[6]
Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog
|It has been suggested that this article or section be separated into Star Post (Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog).
In the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog episode "The Mobius 5000", Sonic, Tails and Professor Caninestein use a Star Post to evade heavy traffic and get closer to the finish line via the Special Zone.
Archie Comics
|It has been suggested that this article or section be separated into Star Post (Archie).
In Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog comics and its spin-offs, Star Posts are a device built by Rotor which allows Sonic and Tails to enter the former Zone of Silence. After the gathering, it has been transformed into a world which resembles both the Special Stages from Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles. It is here that the now seven Chaos Emeralds reside.

Pirates center fielder Andrew McCutchen, who finished third in the MVP voting in the first season of a $51.5 million contract, posted this on Twitter after a trip back home:
Nathan Eovaldi expects to pitch out of bullpen if Yankees reach ALDS
Nathan Eovaldi hasn't pitched in a month due to right elbow inflammation, but he told Chad Jennings of the Journal News today that he expects to pitch out of the bullpen if the Yankees advance to the ALDS against the Royals.
Eovaldi was originally expected to throw a 35-pitch bullpen session today, but the Yankees moved up his timetable after the news that CC Sabathia was checking into alcohol rehab. Instead, he threw 10 pitches in a bullpen session before facing hitters for the first time since his injury.
There isn't enough time for Eovaldi to get stretched out to start during the ALDS, but he could still play an important role for the Yankees, especially with Adam Warren looking like the most likely option to replace Sabathia in the rotation.
Cardinals "optimistic" Yadier Molina will be on NLDS roster
Yadier Molina suffered a mild ligament tear in his left thumb on September 20, but the Cardinals announced Monday that they remain "optimistic" he'll be on the roster for the upcoming NLDS.
Molina visited a hand specialist Monday and Jenifer Langosch of MLB.com reports that he'll have a custom splint built in hopes that he'll be able to hit and catch. He's still not 100 percent, but even a limited Molina could be better than the alternative. That would be Tony Cruz in this case.
The Cardinals will meet the winner of Wednesday's Wild Card game between the Cubs and the Pirates. Game 1 of the NLDS will take place Friday at 6:30 p.m. ET in St. Louis.

I posted this a few months ago, but it's appropriate for us to watch it again. John Wooden, who will be described mostly as a college coach , died today. It would, perhaps, be more fitting to note that he was married to the same woman for 53 years and that his last love, was his first love. She's been gone for more than 20 years, but he still wrote her love letters. She was a lucky woman.

For my recent ABC special "You Can't Even Talk About It", I spoke with residents of La Posada, a development in Florida that made Forbes's list of top 10 "ritzy" retirement communities. These folks are well off. And they get a bonus: You pay for most of their health care under Medicare.
The retirees love it. Everyone likes getting free stuff. And Medicare often makes going to the doctor just about free.Why is this a good thing?
"What about those young people [who pick up the tab]? What kind of legacy are we leaving for them?" asks Harvard Business School Professor Regina Herzlinger. "We're really stealing from them."
Some high-school students are alarmed about the scam. "20/20" interviewed a group that is willing to help needy seniors -- they volunteer at a food bank -- but they are angry that Medicare forces them to pay for even wealthy seniors.
"This program, Medicare, is essentially ripping my generation off," Zach Hadaway said.
Policy experts say the kids are right.
"The government spends around $6 on seniors for every dollar it spends on children, and yet the poverty rate among children is far higher," said Andrew Biggs of the American Enterprise Institute (www.aei.org).
The federal government stiffs the young in favor of the old.
So I told the La Posada seniors that the kids called them "greedy geezers." They said, "We've paid our dues." Money was taken from every paycheck they earned.
But, in fact, the average Medicare beneficiary today collects two to three times more money than he paid in.
"I would argue that this is not only unfair, it's downright immoral," says billionaire Pete Peterson.
Peterson is a rarity: a senior who decided he cannot in good conscience accept Medicare. He and his foundation (www.pgpf.org) worry about the looming fiscal disaster. When Medicare began in 1965, six working-aged people paid for each Medicare recipient. Now the figure is four. It will get worse as baby boomers like me retire.
Medicare is unsustainable.
"There is $34 trillion sitting off the balance sheet, waiting for future generations to pay," Herzlinger said.
That's how much more Medicare money government has promised than it has budgeted. It's the price of about 30 Iraq Wars.

Reports may be of dolphins:
Spreadsheet of Hector's and Māui dolphin incidents: July 2008 - April 2015 (XLS, 48K)
DOC has been working to improve the way we store and record our marine mammal data. A part of this process was moving our Hector's/Māui dolphin incident data into a geospatial database.
This process took longer than expected which led to delays in providing the November 2013 - January 2014 online incident update. The November 2013 - January 2014 data has been combined with the update for February to April 2014. Thank you for your patience during this process.
Quarterly updates are posted about Māui and Hector's dolphin incidents in early May, August, November and February each year. Individual updates are current as at the date of publication, results that are pending at that time will be updated in the master spreadsheet as they are received, but not updated in the individual incident update report pages.
In order to align reporting and maintain the integrity of government fishery observer programmes, data on observed captures will generally be reported here only in the quarterly report after the quarter that the incident occurred in. Please provide your constructive feedback to firstname.lastname@example.com.
DOC is working to improve how we collect, manage, and report on Hector's and Māui dolphin data. As a part of this process we are developing a new geospatial database. Some fields have changed and the old data has been converted to match the new fields. The differences are:
The database relies on reports from the public of dead dolphins they have found. It is biased to areas visited frequently by people and so tends to have more reports from areas that have higher visitor numbers. The database also relies on reports from fishing vessels that may have caught dolphins during their fishing activity.
The earliest record in the database is from 1921. Some reports are historical records from museums or universities, but much of the information in the database is from reports investigated by DOC.
Currently, investigation of all Māui and Hector's dolphin mortality includes:
The database contains a variety of information about each dolphin, including its sex, size, where it was found, any background information about the incident and information collected during the necropsy.
In some cases, dolphins may not have been assessed for a cause of death as the carcass may have been too decomposed to find out how the dolphin died. In some cases, there may be clear evidence for a dolphin's cause of death (for example, a specific wound), although in others there may be no clear evidence at all.
Trainee Ranger Guy Brannigan measures a dead Hectors calf washed ashore at Warrington Beach near Dunedin in December 2012
With fewer than 100 left in the wild, this New Zealand treasure needs all our help to survive.
One of the smallest marine dolphins in the world, Hector's dolphins grow no more than 1.5 m in length.
We are involved with numerous stakeholders and conducts a wide range of work concerning the critically endangered Māui dolphin.

PHOTOS: Florida's rejected license plates aren't always offensive
Everglades National Park, FL -- Water management contractors working in the Florida Everglades have captured and killed a giant Burmese python that had just consumed an adult deer.
Scott Hardin, exotic species coordinator for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission, says workers found the nearly 16-foot-long snake on Thursday.
The reptile was one of the largest ever found in South Florida.
Hardin says the python had recently consumed a female deer that still had hair and weighed 76 pounds. He added it was an important capture to help stop the spread of pythons further north.

Cerebral angiography
Brain angiography with contrast : Cerebral angiography is a procedure that uses a special dye (contrast material) and x-rays to see how blood flows through the brain. Doctors may order this test if symptoms or signs of vascular malformation (abnormal blood vessels), aneurysm (blood-filled dilation of a blood vessel), narrowing of the arteries in the brain, and vasculitis (inflammation of blood vessels) are present. Sometimes, it is also used to confirm a brain tumor, evaluate the arteries of the head and neck before surgery, and find a clot that may have caused a stroke.

Emphasis on test scores won't get the job done, University of Oregon dean says
What is a better sign of a healthy economy: high test scores in the classroom or Honey Boo Boo?
If Yong Zhao, an advocate for education reform, is right, the answer is the reality show sensation.
Honey Boo Boo may not be a shining example of creativity, but she's the small price we pay for encouraging creativity in education reform, Zhao told about 70 people at Cal Lutheran University on Thursday night in his presentation, "From Job Seekers to Job Creators: Educating Creative and Entrepreneurial Talents for the New Economy."
Calling most countries "sausage-making machines," Zhao argued that many, especially his native China, use test scores to track the growth of an individual, and they pay a terrible price for it.
American education policymakers want to prepare a better-educated and more highly skilled workforce to compete globally and out-innovate others, but their measure of doing so boils down to test scores, said Zhao, presidential chair and associate dean for global education at the University of Oregon.
China has churned out expert test takers, but they have not produced innovators like American entrepreneurs Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg, he said.
Though not everyone will become a founder of a new industry, successful job seekers must pursue their curiosity, passion and creativity like entrepreneurs.
Standing in their way are tests that don't test for real-world success, Zhao said.
The cultural emphasis on test taking reverberates among Asian-Americans, he said. Between 15 to 25 percent of Ivy League students are Asian, and they desire to hold top positions much more than Caucasians. Yet Asians only represent 2 percent of the 5,520 board seats of the Fortunate 500 companies.
"Some of it is the glass ceiling, but some of it is forced excellence," Zhao said. "We only know how to take tests."
The Program for International Student Assessment, an international assessment that measures 15-year-old students' reading, mathematics, and science literacy, shows Asian students at the academic top. But recent findings by the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor, an annual assessment of entrepreneurial activities, aspirations, and attitudes of individuals in more than 50 countries, found that students in Singapore, Korea, Taiwan and Japan scored the lowest in self-confidence to start a new business.
In the education arena, however, the U.S. is not doing much better. Federal education reform programs such as No Child Left Behind and the Race to the Top grant program have positioned the U.S. to follow China's trend, Zhao warned.
"On June 15, when my son graduates from the University of Chicago, if he does not fly back to Oregon to live in my basement, that's an education well spent," said Zhao, noting that about half of recent college graduates lack full-time jobs.
Moreover, a rise in the workforce and the decline in manufacturing and service level jobs, which have traditionally supported the American middle class, mean "the new middle class has to come from the creative class."
"The new economy requires right-brainers, designers, artists, synthesizers," he said. "If you truly want to stay out of your parent's basement, you cannot be looking for a job. You have to be creating a job."
The U.S. — a "broken sausage maker that happens to make some bacon" — needs to improve its education system dramatically, but how?
The answer is shucking the old test-heavy model where "we invent national tests and attach high stakes to them" and develop each child as a thinking, creative person. Creativity, which is about asking questions and challenging the status quo, increases confidence and, ultimately, innovation.
Zhao said the American system has some advantages over others: public funding, more local control over schools, less emphasis on gender and an open and forgiving culture that encourages students.
"You can't improve creativity by forcing everyone to study the same way," he said. "Standardized-testing-driven education homogenizes people, makes everyone mediocre and miserable."
"If as a system you need exceptional talents, you have to foster them," he said. "You may not like Honey Boo Boo, but she is allowed to survive."

There is little if anything that is straightforward or indeed 'natural' about the body, says Alison Jasper. It is a cultural canvas constructed through metaphors and a physical one preyed on by the idea that 'more surgery will make me better somehow'.
Though the pursuit of bodily perfection is a global phenomenon, says Jeremy Biles, its roots may lie partly in American religion.
As medical science continues to explore the wonder of the human body, we must ensure that our theological thinking keeps pace, says Kevin Boyd. Fleshly existence is deeply bound up with religious formation, not least in incarnational Christianity.

In DDG we want our operations to make a positive difference in people's lives.
It is essential for us to measure the impact our activities have on the livelihoods and safety of local people. It is only by understanding the changes our interventions bring about that we can improve our performance to the benefit of the communities we support.
Impact monitoring is an integrated part of all DDG operations. It is managed by trained national staff in both our Armed Violence Reduction interventions and Mine Action interventions.
In DDG we use a mixed method approach to measure the impact of our interventions. We involve the communities we support in measuring impact. Their knowledge, behaviour and opinions form the evidence on which we base our findings. Impact to us is about the changes in people's lives that are generated from having a more secure home or access to safe land.
We continuously seek to improve our operations and the way we monitor our impact. Sharing knowledge and being transparent about methods enables us to receive feedback and develop our organisation.
You can download our manual and results from this page.
Any questions on DDG Impact Monitoring should be put to ddg@ drc.dk

|The Game Story:
|Boston, Mass. - Sophomore Andrew Feinberg scored three goals and junior Thomas Muldoon added two goals to lead the 14th-ranked Brown men's lacrosse team to an 8-6 Ivy league win over #17 Harvard at Harvard Stadium. The win lifts the Bears to 10-2 overall and 3-1 in the Ivy League with league games remaining against #4 Cornell and #1 Princeton. Harvard falls to 5-5 overall and 1-3 in Ivy games.
Brown led for most of the game, but two fourth quarter goals by the Crimson cut the Bears lead to 7-6. Muldoon stepped in and scored his second goal of the game to give the Bears a two-goal cushion, 8-6, with 4:15 left in the game, to account for the final margin of victory.
Harvard got on the scoreboard first, but Brown scored the next three goals to grab a 3-1 lead on goals by Muldoon, Feinberg and senior Brady Williams with 3:59 left in the first quarter, a lead that held up through the first quarter of play.
The Crimson netted two second quarter goals, sandwiched in between a Feinberg goal for the Bears, keeping Brown ahead at the half by a 4-3 margin.
Feinberg's third goal of the game gave the Bears a 5-3 advantage with 13:15 left in the third quarter and junior Charlie Kenny scored just 16 seconds later to extend Brown's lead to 6-3.
Senior Reade Seligmann netted his first goal of the game with 10:54 left in the quarter to further extend the Bears lead to 7-3. Crimson middie Jason Duboe scored with 1:15 remaining in the third quarter to cut the Brown lead to 7-4, heading into the fourth quarter.
Brown's All-American goalie Jordan Burke may have been the difference in the game. The Ivy League leader in saves per game registered 11 saves for the Bears. Joe Pike made 10 saves in goal for the Crimson.
The Bears will play their final non-league game of the season on Saturday, traveling to cross-town rival Providence College on April 18th. Game time is 7:00 p.m.

The Government Social Research Service (GSR) provides evidence to understand, develop, implement, monitor and evaluate government policies and services. It has members in all the main government departments as well as the devolved administrations and other government bodies. It is one of five government analytical services providing evidence for policy.
The purpose of GSR is to:
provide government with objective, reliable, relevant and timely social research
support the development, implementation, review and evaluation of policy and delivery
ensure policy debate is informed by the best research evidence and thinking from the social sciences.
GSR is about ensuring that government and frontline decisions are built on an understanding of, and engagement with, the people and organisations affected by that decision as well as an understanding of the wider social consequences.
It represents the social sciences that specialise in behaviour change
It specialises in the evaluation of policies and interventions
It provides in-depth data and objective analysis on what people and organisations think, how they behave and why they may not be responding to initiatives as planned.
GSR members come from a range of social science backgrounds including psychology, social policy, geography, sociology, political science, criminology and social statistics. GSR members are recruited through rigorous assessment procedures ensuring high quality social scientists are employed as government social researchers.
GSR members and products are expected to adhere to the GSR Code, an addendum to the Civil Service Code, full details of which are on this site in a dedicated section called GSR Code.
GSR works closely with the other government analytical profession – economics, statistics, operational research, and science and engineering – through formal and informal networks.
If you are a researcher interested in working with government organisations you can find out more about the research they are involved in and contact them via the ESRC (Economic and Socia Research Council). (opens in a new window)

The message from HMRC states:
Some of you will have seen press coverage recently about Self Assessment (SA) daily penalty notices being sent out in error. We are very sorry about this but here's an update on the situation which we hope will help you to deal with questions from your members or your clients.
We have identified that nearly 12,000 people have been sent a Self Assessment daily penalty notice in error. We are really sorry and can reassure these customers that we know who they are and that this letter is incorrect – they do not owe a penalty. We are writing to all of them to apologise and to explain this error.
Many of the 12,000 customers are among the 130,000 who have already been taken out of Self Assessment, following a cleanse of the database and our invitation to customers to contact us if they felt that they shouldn't be in SA. We can reassure these customers that they have been removed from Self Assessment.
It is very unfortunate that this process error has taken the shine off the good news that we have taken 130,000 people out of Self Assessment.

Many States have had longstanding policies that allow police to obtain a warrant to forcibly draw the blood of people suspected of drunk driving if they refuse to submit to a breathalyzer test.
While many Americans likely support efforts to convict drunk drivers, a recent report from Fox 5 Atlanta illustrates just how intrusive the policies are.
And here is footage of a similar incident in Gillette, Wyoming on May 22, 2012 when police drew blood from a DUI suspect after getting a warrant.
In 2005, the Supreme Court ruled that procedures like the one highlighted in the videos above hold up to Constitutional muster.

Would it be worth getting a Carcinoembryonic Antigen test done, just in case? As I understand, you always have some carcinogenic cells in your body, kept in check by your immune system, and a high count of CEA means something bad is not in check. I'm curious where my body is at, as a low count would confirm cancer is not a problem at this time, and many forms of cancer are undetectable until its too late...View Thread

The way windows does this is using the NMB protocol, you can run that on linux, and use samba instead of nfs, or even use nfs with it but maybe not as seemless.
Configure your hostname in smbd.conf then run nmbd. Then on your second computer run nmblookup YOURHOSTNAME
That /should/ give you the ip of the first. With samba if you are running nmbd you can then just do mount -t smb //HOSTNAME/share /mnt/samba
I'm afraid I don't know enough about nfs to do it with nfs, but you could nmblookup and then use the ip you get from there, but that's kinda sloppy.

Windows 8.1 is now available for download, but although it may seem like anyone can get it, some users are still experiencing major problems during the downloading process.
A number of Windows 8 adopters turned to Microsoft's Community forums to report the 0x80070057 error that shows up when Windows 8.1 is ready to launch the installation procedure.
"It downloads fine, then goes through the checks and goes into 'Applying Changes' for about 3 minutes, then it fails giving me error code 0x80070057. I tried the reboot in normal mode suggestion from another post, but it did not help," one of the users reported.
At this point, Microsoft is yet to release a workaround for this, but some other users are suggesting that removing specific USB devices from your computer could do the job and let the Windows 8.1 installation process to complete.

Norman "Curly" Watts, so nicknamed because his hair was straight, was a Weatherfield lad though we never met him until he was an adult working on the bins with Eddie Yates and Chalkie Whitely. He lodged with Emily Bishop and set up business with Terry Duckworth, an association he would eventually regret. Poor Curly was a smart lad but a bit gormless, especially when it came to relations with the opposite sex. He was keen and eager to please, like a puppy and that seems to be how most women saw him. He had his first proper girlfriend in factory worker, Shirley Armitage, round about the same time as he decided to go back to school and get some qualifications in business studies.
Curly and Shirley split (how could they possibly have made it work with names that rhymed like that!). Curly lodged with the Duckworths and started his retail career in the Bettabuys empire with manager Reg Holdsworth as his mentor. Bettabuys was the source of two major relationships in his life. First the righteous Kimberly whom he dated and nearly married. Lucky escape there, I think, because I think he let himself be railroaded into the engagement thinking nobody else would ever have him. His next relationship was a fantasy. He fell hard for Raquel Wolstenhulme who had her own ambitions and never appreciated the steady and faithful Curly. She would be continually hurt by other more "exciting" men and keep coming back to Curly to pick up the pieces until she finally married him on yet another rebound. Curly thought all his birthdays had come at once and thought that Raquel might grow to love him.
She didn't. Curly had his heart well and truly broken. He knew Raquel would leave him eventually though it didn't hurt any less when she left him after only a year. He thought he'd try to travel the world and rented out his house to Samantha Failsworth but was only gone for about 6 hours in the end.
As he gained more confidence in his job, he started moving up the career ladder but had a bit of trouble with obsessive stalker, Anne Malone, who framed him after he rejected her amorous advances. This did have him saying good bye to Weatherfield for a time, hoping to find Raquel. He never did find her but in the process, seemed to have finally found himself. He discovered that he was a dad when Raquel returned to ask for a divorce, revealing that she had had his baby, now a three year old little girl called Alice. It seems like about this time, Curly came into his own and lost most of that daftness he used to have.
Before long, he met police officer Emma Taylor and found the first real mutual love of his life. He turned to local politics and was elected town councillor where he really tried to do some good. Curly always had a social conscience and this was a way to bring some good to help people. After he and Emma got married, they had baby Ben and his dream of being a full time dad was realized. He and Emma went through a rocky patch when her career nearly faltered because of an unethical situation but they reconciled and moved away to Newcastle to start again.
We haven't heard from or about Curly since. I like to think he and Emma had another baby. Maybe he's involved in local politics or some other local group that works to better the lives of people that need help. Maybe he's running a Citizen's Advice Bureau!
What was your favourite Curly moment? Was it when he gave Raquel her own personal star in the sky? Was it the Reg and Curly storylines? What about when he freaked out on the Battersbys and ended up getting nutted in the head by Les? Wouldn't it be great to see Curly again?

Thomson continues the tradition of superior bike components with the carbon road bar. The carbon construction uses three different fiber types to optimize stiffness for performance and flex for comfort. The mildly flattened wing shape along the top of the handlebar provides a comfortable platform for your hands. The underside of the bar is shaped so that cable housing can be taped unobtrusively without the use of housing channels or internal routing, both of which compromise strength and longevity. These bars are also clip-on aero bar compatible. 40, 42, 44 or 46cm.
