Hear David McCullough at the National Book Festival
If you couldn't be among the estimated 200,000 readers who flocked to the National Book Festival in Washington, D.C., last month, you can still enjoy some of the speakers' presentations, including the one by David McCullough. The Library of Congress, presenter of the Book Festival, has compiled a podcast.
Want to know David McCullough's secret to writing books that win Pulitzer Prizes and end up on the New York Times bestseller lists? A used typewriter! That's how he's composed all his books, including his newest, "The Greater Journey." At Levenger, we've immortalized the McCullough typewriter by miniaturizing it into this bookend—which the author loves.

Hello all, this is for people familiar with the city of Chicago. Do you know of any bike stores in the city that deal with used bikes that would be worth checking out? I went to Uptown Bikes today but didnt find much. Thanks.
Hello all, this is for people familiar with the city of Chicago. Do you know of any bike stores in the city that deal with used bikes that would be worth checking out? I went to Uptown Bikes today but didnt find much. Thanks.
Moved to Great Lakes regional forum.
"Real wars of words are harder to win. They require thought, insight, precision, articulation, knowledge, and experience. They require the humility to admit when you are wrong. They recognize that the dialectic is not about making us look at you, but about us all looking together for the truth."
You should check out Working Bikes. Google 'em and check out their website
Try 'A Nearly New Shop" on Broadway. They sell only used bikes
If you ar worried about trust, query it on http://www.chicagobikeshops.info/. It comes with independent user reviews.
Yeah I was going to check out the Recyclery, but their sale was yesterday and I coudnt make it out there in time. I think Nearly New is definitely the best bet for me right now.
This may not be of help to you right now, but check out the Chicago police bike auction. They have montly sales of over 100 bikes, most of them reasonably priced
I just stopped by a bike sale on Saturday near Belmont and Western. The guy's name is Kevin and he really seemed like a knowledgeable, trustworthy guy. He has about 150 bikes, from road bikes to three speeds. He definitely knows his old English three speeds, and he seems several levels above some of the guys around here who are an assembly line of overpriced fixie-conversions for Craiglist. I'm picking up a bike from him tomorrow.
Depending on what you're looking for, he may be an option. Feel free to pm me for his number. I never met him prior to Saturday and have no connection to him.
Best of luck,
I grow old, I grow old. I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.
have you checked out Bobby's Bikes... they have a sale now
PM received and replied to.
It most definitely depends on what kind of bike you're looking for and what your budget is. If you let us know, I'm certain that someone on BF could point you in the right direction or help you out directly.
I grow old, I grow old. I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.
Here is a nice listing which is plotted on a map of chicago: http://indylist.org/browse?keyword=bike
I can personally recommend working bikes although if you want a road bike they sell out rather quickly. Keep in mind they get in new stuff daily so you have to check a lot...I would assume the same to be true for Uptown Bikes.
Don't forget Blackstone Bicycle Works in the Hyde Park area.
They do good work similar to and in cooperation with Working Bikes.
I just got a very nice Trek 750 Multitrack for $120 from Craigs list..... Good bike at a good price (not great, but good).... I see lots of good prices on craigs list

Newlywed Blake Lively was feeling a little shy today on the set of Gossip Girl.
Lively hid her her left hand from photographers where her wedding ring is located, in her pocket as she left the Gossip Girl film set in Brooklyn, New York this afternoon (September 17, 2012).
While Blake and husband Ryan Reynolds were honeymooning in Charleston, S.C., a photographer managed to snap a shot of Lively's wedding ring, which until post-wedding had not been seen. The very large, but not gaudy, engagement ring is a lovely oval shape on a thin band of diamonds by Lorraine Schwartz, one of the few jewelers to the stars. Lively's band is thin, which is quite complimentary to her engagement ring.
The couple wed September 9 in a secret ceremony at the Boone Hall Plantation in Charleston, S.C., in front of friends and family. The couple vowed to "to support and love each other and to make each other laugh."
The sixth and final season of Gossip Girl premiers Monday, October 8 at 9 p.m. EST on the CW.

For those unaware of all the buzz going on about the Diamond Jubilee, a Diamond Jubilee marks a 60 years reign and this year, the honor is bestowed upon Queen Elizabeth II. Lots of fanfare has accompanied the occasion, including Banksy who created a Pictures On Walls print entitled "Er…"
Banksy's Er… is available as a free download so that you can celebrate along with the Queen by printing and as Pictures on Walls says "Alternatively print onto a piece of paper, sellotape to a barbecue skewer and wave in an 'ironic' way as the Queen drives past." Its clear that Banksy is having a little fun but nevertheless, its always great to see new work from him. Download your copy and play along here.

In general a share is a part of the ownership of a company. A person who buys a portion of a company's capital becomes a shareholder in that company's assets and as such receives a share of the company's profits in the form of an annual dividend. Lucky or astute investors may also reap a capital gain as the market value of the shares increases.
In finance a share is a unit of account for various financial instruments including stocks, mutual funds, limited partnerships, and REIT's. In simple Words, a share or stock is a document issued by a company, which entitles its holder to be one of the owners of the company. A share is issued by a company or can be purchased from the stock market.
By purchasing a share you can earn a portion of the company and by selling the shares you get capital gain. So,the return is in the form of dividend plus the capital gain. However, there is also a risk of capital gain incase you sell the share at a lower price.
A company's stock price is not necessarily based on the worth of the company but also reflects the investors thinking on the stocks of the company. " For example, companies that are growing quickly often trade at a higher price than the company might currently be "worth." Stock prices are also affected by all forms of company and market news. Publicly traded companies are required to report quarterly on their financial status and earnings. Market forces and general investor opinions can also affect share price.

The general investors should identify a sub-broker for regular trading in shares and place his order for purchase and sale through the sub-broker. The sub/broker will transmit the order to his broker who will then execute it .
What are active Shares ?
Shares in which there are frequent and day-to-day dealings, differentiated from partly active shares in which dealings are not so frequent. Most shares of leading companies would be active, particularly those which are sensitive to economic and political events and are, therefore, subject to sudden price movements. Some market analysts define active shares as those which are bought and sold at least three times a week. Active shares are easy to buy and sell .

It's of a Southwest 737 departing PHX. That is NOT Project AI! I have tried project AI with the auto-installers, making more gates at airports, etc. No traffic showed up with them, so I decided to just add MY OWN. I really like the amount of America West A320s at PHX! There was about 30 of them at the airport! Ok, now I created this image using Photoshop 7. It's a wonderful program! The quality is only a 9/12, so it could be better! You wanna know why it's 9/12? Because flightsim.com message boards only uploads pics that at 100kb are smaller, so I had to reduce quality and size! Could somebody PLEASE tell me a place where I can get some free space so I can host my photos! I know there is a place strictly for FS! I don't really want angelfire! I hope you've enjoyed this photo! Thanks a ton if you could answer my questions!

This is a throwback to the my past. I remember spending hours with my sisters doing macrame: belts, chokers, wall hangings, even an owl. But we never made anything this large! New York City based Andy Harman used natural jute fiber and two solid oak beads to create this mammoth owl. It's 35 feet long and 15 feet wide. The diameter of the rope is 1 inch. Where did he find those enormous oak beads? Maybe being a production designer working in fashion photography gives you access to far-out craft supplies.

Memphis Pimp Sentenced to 27 Years for Child Sex Trafficking
|U.S. Attorney's Office July 13, 2012
MEMPHIS—Maurice Mabon, 24, of Memphis, was sentenced to 27 years in prison today for child sex trafficking by Chief United States District Judge Jon Phipps McCalla, announced United States Attorney Edward L. Stanton, III; Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer of the Criminal Division of the Department of Justice; and Special Agent in Charge of the Memphis Federal Bureau of Investigation Field Office Aaron T. Ford. Mabon's co-defendant, Chauntta Lewis, 27, of Moscow, Tennessee, was sentenced to 54 months on a related charge.
On April 6, 2012, a federal jury convicted Mabon of child sex trafficking, attempted child sex trafficking, and conspiracy to commit child sex trafficking for his role in advertising a 15-year-old girl for prostitution on the website Backpage.com on April 16, 2011. He was also found guilty of being a felon in possession of ammunition.
Lewis pled guilty on March 29, 2012, to using a facility of interstate commerce in furtherance of child prostitution. A third co-defendant, Arieke Lester, pled guilty on March 30, 2012, and is set to be sentenced on August 10, 2012.
Parole is not a possibility in the federal system.
The evidence at trial showed, among other things, that Mabon took numerous photographs of the 15-year-old victim and Lewis modeling lingerie in his bedroom, then posted those photographs as part of an advertisement for prostitution on the website Backpage.com. Mabon, Lewis, and Lester then drove the 15-year-old to an address provided by an individual responding to the ad for the purpose of having her and Lewis engage in a commercial sex act. A suspicious neighbor contacted the Shelby County Sheriff's Department and deputies intervened in time to frustrate the scheme.
A later search of Mabon's home led to the discovery of 12 live rounds of 9mm Luger ammunition, 17 live rounds of 7.65 ammunition, 25 live rounds of .380 ammunition, 20 live rounds of .45 Auto ammunition, and eight spent rounds of 7.62 ammunition. As a previouslyconvicted felon, Mabon was prohibited by federal law from possessing any ammunition.
During the search, investigators located a handwritten document in Mabon's bedroom identifying his long-term goals to start an escort service and open a brothel.
"The message from today's sentencing is unequivocally loud and clear: if you sexually exploit a child for profit, you will spend decades in a federal prison." said United States Attorney Stanton.
"Working with our law enforcement partners, we will remain relentless in doing whatever it takes to protect our most vulnerable citizens—our children—from those individuals who engage in sex trafficking."
"This sentencing should be taken as a warning to anyone who seeks to profit from the victimization of children in sex trafficking schemes, that the FBI and its law enforcement partners will target, investigate, and bring you to justice to pay for your crimes," said Aaron T. Ford, Special Agent in Charge of the Memphis Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
"Human sex trafficking is one of the fastest growing criminal businesses in the world, and the FBI takes seriously its role in working to eradicate it."
The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation working in conjunction with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives and the Shelby County Sheriff's Office. Tracey Harris Branch served as lead investigator. It was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Jonathan Skrmetti and Trial Attorney Keith Becker from the U.S. Department of Justice Criminal Division's Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice. Led by U.S. Attorneys' Offices and CEOS, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to better locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals, who exploit children, as well as to identify and rescue victims.

"Veep" has always marked its seasons not by steady character progression or even landmark events (though there have been a few). Instead, Armando Iannucci's ruthless HBO comedy is remembered for its innovative insults, continuously raising the bar for how degrading one character can be to the others.
Season three was no different. Combative words flew faster than ever, forcing the viewer to step back from time to time and examine the best one-liners after getting through an episode filled with them. Below are the most vicious, nastiest, and most memorable insults of season three -- with more to come in Sunday night's two-part season finale.
1) "What in the wide world of fuck do you think you're wearing?"
Selina Meyer was on the verge of an absolute conniption before she saw her daughter had worn nearly the exact same dress as she did on the day of her campaign launch. After...well, that's simply the stuff of legend. Still, the simple beauty of the moment pictured above lies in a mother's confrontation of her daughter. No one else in the world could say what Selina says and still have her child trying to help her minutes later, let alone convince Catherine to wear what she ends up wearing. It's also an excellent example of how "Veep" writers use the f-bomb -- by carefully hiding it in unsuspected areas within sentences.
2) "Where do you get your news? From a guy on a horse?"
For as vulgar as "Veep" can be, it's never unnecessarily so. Case in point comes from a few of the best quotes being as direct and clean as this one, which effectively tears down its receiver by paralleling its message with its construction. While he's holding a technologically advanced device, Dan is mocked by his new subordinate Amy in a fashion that dates him as far back as the days before the first phones even existed. She does this with an insult clean, clear, and to the point -- it doesn't take its time to land, but otherwise it's perfectly calibrated to reinforce her point: Dan's slow.
3) "Do they have a bathroom here, or do they put their turds up in the cloud?"
When Selina went to meet with the tech industry in Silicon Valley, HBO had to be drooling over a crossover opportunity with its freshman comedy. Yet fans of "Veep" knew Selina wouldn't get along with the new-age tech people whose minds weren't developed enough to understand why she was even there. There's no political games with them. Just ignorance of the real world -- kind of like the bubbled politicos of DC. Selina's off-hand comment about finding a bathroom was made more to illustrate the disconnect between coastal and cultural opposites, as well as to show the bullshit flows both ways. The techies may be crafting something useful for the modern age, and Selina is seeking the most powerful seat in the country, but neither know what the other is doing -- or why.
4) "All my orgasms have come at once."
In the season three premiere, one of the most glorious events to ever happen to the VP office occurs and provides everyone at Mike's wedding a far superior dose of joy: Jonah, who's about to be perfectly described in the next post, is fired. Dan chronicles it on his iPad and Selina gives the perfect summary of the group's feelings. Vulgar but joyous, the Veep's sincere exclamation is evidence of the writing staff seeing a big moment -- an especially ripe one for fans -- and not letting it go by without the perfect remark. They're just as effective with the major insults as the minor, with the timely as well as the unexpected.
5) "You let that unstable piece of human scaffolding into your house?"
Sometimes a description just works. It hits the sweet spot even though you may have never thought to use it in a million years. That's really all there is to be said about Selina's summary of Jonah's humanity. Her distressed tone helps sell the insult, especially when put into the perspective of her plight: She's worried he'll break a story about her that's true. It also happens to be one of Reid Scott's favorite insults of all time.
6) "If men got pregnant, you could get an abortion at an ATM."
The truth hurts, and it stung a bit extra when coming hard and fast from the VP's team of handlers as they tried to solve the abortion debate in America during a single sitting. While quite a few gems were tossed around (including Selina saying she "can't identify as a woman" because "people can't know that"), this line showed how aware the writing staff is of its mission: they're skewering politics from all sides. To do this, they show how even someone who knows a hard truth is still kept at bay, too scared to say anything in public as brave and honest as Selina does during her five minute private rant. Luckily, the writers gave her satirical character the stage, and pushed the agenda the only way it can be pushed: through comedy.

1998 Sierra Club Sprawl Report: 30 Most Sprawl-Threatened Cities
Ten Most Sprawl-Threatened Large Cities
Number One: Atlanta
Every week, five hundred acres of green
space, forest, and farmland in the Atlanta metro area are plowed under.
Every week, five hundred acres of green space, forest and farmland in the Atlanta metro
area are plowed under.
Atlanta is one of the fastest growing regions in the country, and the environmental
impacts of unplanned sprawl in the Atlanta area are among the most significant and
widespread in the nation.
Atlanta's urban land area expanded 47 percent between 1990 to 1996, following a 25
percent expansion between 1980 and 1990. Pressure to expand will continue as the
population grows disproportionately in the outer suburbs. From 1990 to 1996, the
population outside Atlanta's urban core increased almost 40 percent, but only 2 percent
inside the city limits. Some experts believe that the region's population could double in
the next 50 years. With no natural barriers, few cities are growing as fast as Atlanta.
Green space is being gobbled up by sprawl faster than in any metro region in history
(according to a real estate research firm and reported by the Atlanta Journal
Constitution). Every week, five hundred acres of green space, forest or farmland are
plowed under to build parking lots, shopping malls and housing subdivisions. Between 1982
and 1992, the amount of open space lost to development in the Atlanta metropolitan area
increased by 38 percent. The rate of land developed nearly doubled in outer suburban
counties such as Gwinnett, Henry and Paulding.
The Chattahoochee River was named one of the nation's most endangered rivers in 1998 by
the environmental group, American Rivers, which identified rampant growth in the suburbs
as the most significant threat to the river. The Chattahoochee is seriously degraded from
overflowing sewage systems, city street runoff and other pollutants.
Air quality is also alarmingly poor. The 13-county region is in violation of clean air
standards and has lost the right to spend federal money on new road projects. Children
with asthma go to the hospital every summer because of high levels of ozone pollution.
Cars and trucks are the largest source of air pollution in the nonattainment area. Yet,
state, regional and local agencies cannot agree on a plan to clean up the region's air.

We have pioneered a CO2-to-fuel production platform, effectively reversing combustion through the use of solar energy. Free of feedstock constraints and complex processing, this platform can achieve unrivaled scalability, volumes and costs without the use of agricultural land, fresh water or crops.
Engineered bacteria function as "catalysts" to continuously convert waste CO2 directly into renewable fuels, including ethanol or hydrocarbons for diesel, jet fuel and gasoline. The process leverages a modular closed system that readily scales through simple replication.
There are multiple ways to partner with Joule, and multiple ways to benefit from our novel CO2-to-liquids platform. We are actively seeking partners to collaborate on technology development and deployment.

Every once in awhile an enthusiastic bird watcher asks for a set of hummingbird bird house plans. Why? Because they want to get a pair of hummingbirds to nest in their yard.
There is a better way to get hummingbirds into your yard. In fact you won't need hummingbird bird house plans because hummingbirds don't nest in bird houses.
Below we have posted some common questions on this subject of hummingbird houses.
Will Hummingbirds Nest in a Manmade Bird House?
Most likely not. Take a look at these hummingbird nest pictures.
Hummingbird nests are extremely small and they build them in the open. If fact because hummingbirds' nests are usually less than 1″ in diameter they virtually can build their nests on almost any branch or platform. With so many nesting spots to choice from it can be very hard to persuade a hummingbird to build its nest on your piece of wood.
If it is highly unlikely to get a hummingbird to nest in my yard by building a house for them, how can I invite them to come into my yard?
You can put up a hummingbird feeder or you can create a hummingbird garden. Obviously feeders are the easiest way and the most popular. All you have to do is hang the feeder in your yard and as long as there are hummingbirds in your area then you should start seeing hummingbirds soon.
Hummingbird Bird House Plans Look Like…?
If you still want to build your very own hummingbird house, then don't let us stop you. It shouldn't hurt to try. All you need is a small piece of wood for a platform. After you have that then you need to hang it in voilage, in a tree, near a hummingbird feeder, or other areas that you have seen hummingbirds in.
We hope this information about hummingbirds has proven useful to you and if by chance you get a hummingbird to nest on your custom house, then please send us a picture or leave a comment with a link to the picture.

Every one must own a great nude lip gloss and my current favorite is the Laura Mercier Lip Glace in shade Blush. I bought a travel size version of this as part of the Sephora Give me More Lip set and have been reaching for it every time I want to do an understated nude lip.
The texture is slightly on the thicker side but doesn't feel sticky. The semi sheer gloss evens out my lips when worn alone and can be easily layered over lipstick to add some shine. The peachy beige color (with light shimmer) is a universal nude that would work for all skin tones though you may need a nude lipstick/liner underneath if you have very pigmented lips. It instantly hydrates and smoothens the lips and the effect stays for a while. I love how deeply hydrating this lip gloss is! My only issue with this is the strong vanilla/cinnamon scent. I'm just not a big fan of the fragrance.
Rating : 4/5, available at sephora.com for $25
Laura Mercier is not available in India yet.

Speaking to nearly 200 people gathered last Thursday at the Terrace Gardens at Ken Caryl, Dennis Carruth of Carruth Properties outlined his proposal to create patio homes for baby boomers and seniors on land beside the Deer Creek Golf Course.
Carruth is representing landowners in the Deer Creek and Ken Caryl planning areas who are seeking rezoning from industrial and office uses to Residential Planned Development to build about 128 duplex-style and single-family residences on two parcels totaling 22 acres.
If Jeffco Public Schools' proposed facilities master plan isn't approved next month, the district will have to consider other solutions to the issue of its aging buildings and the capital needs associated with repairing and replacing those facilities.
According to Superintendent Dan McMinimee, year-round school, a split-shift schedule and a bond issue focused on deferred maintenance all are possibilities.
Jeffco Public Schools and its teachers union have reached a tentative contract agreement after months of negotiations.
The five-year agreement includes $14.1 million in annual raises, $10.4 million for a one-time pay increase and a transparent pay schedule. It retains a slightly modified version of the controversial pay-for-performance system instituted by the previous school board.
Folks who came to the Trails Talk meeting of Jeffco Open Space on May 10 learned that a section of the Peaks to Plains Trail linking Jefferson and Clear Creek counties is scheduled to open in mid-July.
The 3-mile segment in Clear Creek Canyon extends from the west portal of Tunnel 5 to the parking lot at Mayhem Gulch, Scott Grossman, Jeffco Open Space project manager, told a group at The Peak Community and Wellness Center.
Astronomy enthusiasts and passers-by alike caught a rare glimpse of Mercury's transit across the sun on May 9, the first time the phenomenon had occurred since 2006.
"If you look about nine o'clock, there should be a clean black dot. The ones in the center are fuzzy sunspots," said Mike Dempsey, a naturalist at Lookout Mountain Nature Center who was stationed at Mount Falcon Park with a $2,000 telescope donated by volunteers and equipped with a filter to make the viewing possible.
LAKEWOOD — The left foot of Columbine senior Tatum Barton got the Rebels one step closer to the Class 5A girls soccer state championship game.
Barton's 28th goal this season was all the 5A Jeffco League champs needed offensively May 18 in the state quarterfinal showdown with No. 7 seed Rocky Mountain. The senior forward ripped a left-footed shot from atop the Lobos' goalie box in the 49th minute that hit the inside of the right post and into the back of the net.
Kygo's "Stole the Show" echoed throughout Red Rocks Amphitheatre on Friday afternoon as Chatfield Senior High graduated nearly 450 seniors in its 30th commencement ceremony. As a group of seniors performed their class song one last time, the proverbial spotlight was on, as thousands of parents, family members, friends, teachers and classmates looked on from the stadium seats.
The gym at Columbine High School is shrouded in pitch-black darkness on Friday night. Groups of people with hands on the shoulders of those in front of them begin walking into this inky expanse where a Blind Café dinner is about to begin. A blind person leads the students, parents and teachers to their assigned tables.
Soon the chatter of nearly 80 people seated at tables fills the room, along with aromas of the spaghetti and fresh salad placed before them, which they cannot begin to see.
A Littleton man accused of killing his common-law wife was convicted Monday of first-degree murder.
Michael Sommerfield, 35, was found guilty by a jury in the slaying of Michele Lucero, 34, in 2014. On March 21, 2014, the Jeffco Sheriff's Office was called to Lucero's home in the 9300 block of West Ontario Drive, where she was found dead. An autopsy later concluded the woman had died from ligature strangulation.
The lower portion of Waterton Canyon reopened for daily recreational use on Sunday.
The area had been closed Monday through Saturday since early February for construction of the High Line Canal diversion structure in the South Platte River.
Access to the river from the canyon entrance to mile marker 3.2 is closed indefinitely because of high flows in the South Platte from April storms. The high flows also prevented crews from completing the construction project by early May as scheduled.

Page 23 of 193 CHAPTER VI - Michael, Brother of Jerry
The adventure that was so to alter the future occurred when Michael, in no uncertain manner, announced to all and sundry his presence on the _Makambo_. It was due to Kwaque's carelessness, to commence with, for Kwaque left the stateroom without tight-closing the door. As the _Makambo_ rolled on an easy sea the door swung back and forth, remaining wide open for intervals and banging shut but not banging hard enough to latch itself.
Michael crossed the high threshold with the innocent intention of exploring no farther than the immediate vicinity. But scarcely was he through, when a heavier roll slammed the door and latched it. And immediately Michael wanted to get back. Obedience was strong in him, for it was his heart's desire to serve his lord's will, and from the few days' confinement he sensed, or guessed, or divined, without thinking about it, that it was Steward's will for him to stay in the stateroom.
For a long time he sat down before the closed door, regarding it wistfully but being too wise to bark or speak to such inanimate object. It had been part of his early puppyhood education to learn that only live things could be moved by plea or threat, and that while things not alive did move, as the door had moved, they never moved of themselves, and were deaf to anything life might have to say to them. Occasionally he trotted down the short cross-hall upon which the stateroom opened, and gazed up and down the long hall that ran fore and aft.
For the better part of an hour he did this, returning always to the door that would not open. Then he achieved a definite idea. Since the door would not open, and since Steward and Kwaque did not return, he would go in search of them. Once with this concept of action clear in his brain, without timidities of hesitation and irresolution, he trotted aft down the long hall. Going around the right angle in which it ended, he encountered a narrow flight of steps. Among many scents, he recognized those of Kwaque and Steward and knew they had passed that way.
Up the stairs and on the main deck, he began to meet passengers. Being white gods, he did not resent their addresses to him, though he did not linger and went out on the open deck where more of the favoured gods reclined in steamer-chairs. Still no Kwaque or Steward. Another flight of narrow, steep stairs invited, and he came out on the boat-deck. Here, under the wide awnings, were many more of the gods--many times more than he had that far seen in his life.
The for'ard end of the boat-deck terminated in the bridge, which, instead of being raised above it, was part of it. Trotting around the wheel-house to the shady lee-side of it, he came upon his fate; for be it known that Captain Duncan possessed on board in addition to two fox-terriers, a big Persian cat, and that cat possessed a litter of kittens. Her chosen nursery was the wheel-house, and Captain Duncan had humoured her, giving her a box for her kittens and threatening the quartermasters with all manner of dire fates did they so much as step on one of the kittens.

INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana, June 28. CLUB Wolverine's Connor Jaeger talks about winning the 400 freestyle at the USA Swimming nationals, and his expectations for the 800 freestyle tomorrow.
Men's 400 Free recap: Already the men's 1500-meter freestyle victor, Michigan's Connor Jaeger overhauled an extremely fast field down the stretch to win his second title in the men's 400-meter freestyle at the U.S. Nationals and World Championship Trials.
Jaeger surged down the final 50 meters with a 27.76 to overtake Conor Dwyer, who had led throughout most of the race. Jaeger turned in a final time of 3:45.89 for the win. That performance jumped him to fifth in the world rankings, and gave him a second individual spot on the World Championship squad. That's Jaeger's first time under 3:46, crushing his lifetime best of 3:46.93 from the Santa Clara stop of the Arena Grand Prix earlier this year.
Dwyer, who touched in 3:46.05, drew a big "oooh!" from the crowd when official disqualified him for flinching at the start. That would have been a lifetime best for the NBAC swimmer.

For the last 3 nights this car would start blaring it's alarm at around 1AM and it would just go off for hours (until the morning I assume when the a*sshole owner would go to work)...
... anyway, I had it yesterday, at 3AM the alarm blaring so loud I could barely drown it out with my CD player on very loud. I called 311 to complain and they said if it's an alarm I had to call 911.
So I called 911, had to give my phone number and name to them, but then for almost an hour the alarm kept blaring...
... then I heard a big truck pull up so I looked out my window... a huge NYPD truck (not a tow truck, some emergency truck) and a squad car pulled up... 4 or 5 cops got out with their flashlights pointed at the car, they broke in the car, opened the hood and pulled out the alarm or whatever controls the alarm.
Then they left a ticket on the car. I wonder what that a*sshole car owner got ticketed for and how much. Anyway, they were there for about 30 minutes and were making a decent amount noise... no one showed up to say it was their car.
I hope he/she learns a lesson. I slept well last night.
What is the freaking point of having a car alarm if you are a f*rucking moron who doesn't even respond to it?
I wanted to slash the tires actually, but that would have been messed up.

An Energy Department program to bring special technical talent to the Washington area has run up a $37 million tab because agency officials didn't track costs adequately and gave away excessive sums for moving and living expenses, a federal watchdog says.
The report by the Energy Department Inspector General says agency officials exercised little oversight of how much they were paying to bring in contractors and those with special technical skills for temporary assignments, and it failed to explore less-expensive alternatives.
"The department lacked assurance that the cost of technical and program support provided by the facility contractor personnel assigned to Washington was both reasonable and necessary, and that this approach was the most efficient, least expensive means of obtaining needed skills," the IG said.
That led to unreasonable payments such as $230,000 in relocation expenses for moving to the D.C. area, and 14 examples where individuals received per diem payments above what their employers allowed.
Several individuals in the program also received payments for travel and moving expenses despite the fact they received other payments specifically to cover those costs.
Commonly known as "term assignments," the cost for bringing these technical specialists to D.C. is rising — coming to $306,000 per person in 2011.
That's an increase of $59,000 since the last time the IG looked into the matter in 2005.
The Energy Department isn't evaluating the costs of the program to see if they are justified and "lacked adequate guidance for administering the program," the IG said.
For letting costs increase with little oversight or organization, the Energy Department's term assignment program wins the Golden Hammer, a weekly distinction handed out by the Washington Guardian highlighting instances of waste, fraud and abuse in government spending.
Responding to the IG's findings, Energy Department officials agreed the program was becoming disorganized and needed reforms.
The agency is beginning to implement a departmentwide oversight program with clear directives for hiring contractors, based on a similar program that was successful at the National Nuclear Security Administration.
The IG said that, despite the ongoing problems, department oversight of the program has improved since 2005.
But problems remain, and the term assignments have little central leadership, investigators said. Energy Department laboratories are giving their employees different payments for coming to Washington.
The IG found a gap of about $21,600 among participants in the temporary duty program, ranging from $59,500 to $81,200.
Investigators also said that Energy Department officials had not evaluated whether other options that cost less could bring in the needed knowledge.
"A cost analysis, specifically required by existing department policy, had not been conducted to determine whether cost-effective alternatives to term assignments were available," the IG said.
The IG took a sample of 96 contractors participating in the program and found that stricter controls could have saved the Energy Department at least $500,000.

'Weathering the storm' will be the theme for the conference, scheduled for Thursday, February 7, 2013, at the Carnoustie Golf and Spa Hotel, where LibDem MEP George Lyon will be keynote speaker.
Brought up in a seventh generation tenant farming family on the Isle of Bute, Mr Lyon's understanding of the industry has helped him regularly campaign on land and rural issues.
"I am delighted to be taking part in the Farming Scotland Conference and I am confident we can shine some light on the major challenges facing Scottish agriculture," said Mr Lyon.
Delegates will also hear from chair of the Potato Council, Allan Stevenson, and chair of Quality Meat Scotland, Jim McLaren. BBC Young Farmer of the Year 2012 finalist, Tom Rawson, completes the line-up.
The conference is being sponsored by Thorntons Law Firm, EQ Accountants, Bell Ingram and Royal Bank of Scotland. Liz Barr, head of the Land and Rural team at Thorntons, said: "The Farming Scotland Conference has attracted a diverse range of speakers over the last decade, and the 2013 event will be no exception.
"The theme of the day, 'Weathering the storm', sums up the problems faced not only by Scottish farmers but the industry across the globe. The conference will look at a range of issues, including innovation for farmers, the effects of what could be a substantially reduced Single Farm Payment and the difficulties facing those in the potato industry."

The Fiscal Bottom Line on Immigration Reform
For Immediate Release
The Fiscal Bottom Line on Immigration Reform
Enforcement-Only Strategies Tax the System
While Comprehensive Reform Nets Economic Benefits
April 13, 2010
Washington, D.C. - With Tax Day just around the corner, we are reminded of the fiscal implications of immigration enforcement and immigration reform. Today, the Immigration Policy Center releases a fact check, The Fiscal Bottom Line of Immigration Reform, which finds that the federal government spends billions of taxpayer dollars on costly border and interior enforcement measures which ultimately hurt American families and communities and don't deter unauthorized immigrants.
Instead, IPC points to a different approach to addressing unauthorized immigrants - implementing a legalization program through comprehensive immigration reform - which would generate billions of dollars in additional tax revenue as newly legalized immigrants' wages and tax contributions increase over time. The IPC has also synthesized a number of state studies which assess the economic impact of immigration on state and local economies through federal and state taxes.
Highlights from the fact check include:
- Since Fiscal Year (FY) 2004, the budgets of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) - the border-enforcement and interior-enforcement components of Department of Homeland Security (DHS) - have increased dramatically. CBP's budget grew from $6 billion in FY 2004 to $11.4 billion in FY 2010, while ICE's budget increased from $3.7 billion to $5.7 billion over the same period.
- A January 2010 study by Dr. Raúl Hinojosa-Ojeda, conducted for the Immigration Policy Center and the Center for American Progress, estimates that during the first three years after legalization, the higher earning power of newly legalized workers "would generate $4.5 to $5.4 billion in additional net tax revenue."
- A January 2010 study from the University of Southern California estimates that because unauthorized immigrants earn less than they would if they had legal status, the California state government lost out on $310 million in income taxes in 2009, while the federal government missed out on $1.4 billion.
To read these fact checks in their entirety, see:

Transportation Reviews, the leading consumer advocate for the passenger ground transportation industry, recently completed a case study regarding Denver limousine companies that were displayed on the Denver International Airport (DEN) website. The case study analyzed the permit status of 200 limousine companies that were communicated on the DEN Airport website as of 05/19/2010.
The Colorado Public Utilities Commission (Colorado PUC) regulates all limousine companies operating within the state of Colorado, including limousine companies that provide transportation service to and from the DEN Airport. A limousine company with a permit status of "Canceled" or "Revoked" is not authorized to provide limousine service within the state of Colorado. A permit status of "Show Cause" indicates that the Colorado limousine company's insurance may be canceled in the near future or has already been canceled.
Case Study Results:
- Total number of Colorado limousine companies reviewed was 200 as of 05/19/2010.
- 11% of the limousine companies displayed a permit status by the Colorado PUC of one of the following: Cancelled, Revoked or Show Cause.
- 15.5% of the limousine companies displayed on the DEN Airport website display a company name that is not registered with the Colorado PUC.
- 9% of the limousine companies are misspelled according to the name that is filed with the Colorado PUC.
- 14 Colorado limousine companies were omitted from the case study because we were unable to locate the specific company on the Colorado PUC website.
According to Todd Nemet, President of Transportation Reviews, "Many major commercial airports within the United States fail to communicate accurate and up-to-date information regarding limousine companies that are displayed on their websites. This information may include company names which are not registered with the city/state regulatory agency or companies with an inactive permit not authorized to provide limousine services to and from the airport.
In some cases, the limousine company is operating legally but under a completely different license and company name but the airport's website still displays the previous company name which is no longer permitted. The bottom line is that this misinformation just confuses the public and makes it more difficult for the consumer to research the company before reserving limousine service."
Refer to our Colorado state licensing page for additional information regarding state agencies that regulate Colorado ground transportation companies including limousine, shuttle, taxi and charter bus companies.

My build script runs on linux and invokes things like gcc, shell scripts, etc. Part of the solution is written in mono and could be compiled easily on linux. But I want to obfuscate the code. Not manually, but as part of the build process.
Therefore I need to invoke Dotfuscator and Dotfuscator so far only runs on windows.
Is there a good solutions to invoke command line based workers/build scripts remotely from linux on a windows machine? I don't just want to run a command remotely, but also pass files along.
Like a windows service that is accessed using simple curl-uploads of a tar file, creates a temp folder for each concurrently connected client (or blocks concurrent calls) and unpacks the file, invokes something on these files and packages the result again as tar file to give it back to the caller? And clears the temp file even in case of failures?
Maybe someone knows a good solution that saves me from writing this myself!
It should not be so uncommon that a build process spans multiple platforms, yet common build server answers I found mainly talk about only one build script. Also think about running e.g. the nsis setup builder from a linux driven build script, if part of your solution has a tiny windows component

The Ranger men's soccer program notched a win on their belts today after an RMAC Conference match hosted by Metro State. The Roadrunners went up 2-1 on the Rangers early in the second half, but the Rangers prevailed in the end edging two more goals on the Runners propelling them to a 3-2 victory.
The first goal of the game occurred late in the first half by the foot of midfielder Logan Miller. The Rangers were fouled within the 18 yard box. Miller took the penalty kick for the Rangers edging it past the Metro State goalie.
In the 52nd minute, Roadrunner midfielder Chris Yoder sent the ball downfield. While Ranger goalie Ben Sabados was charging to stop the ball, Metro's forward Scott Grode sent a header over him to the back of the net to tie the game.
The Runners scored again in the 59th minute. Yoder sent a corner kick into the pack in front of the Ranger goal. Defender Andrew Mejia used the cross to header a goal into the back of the net to bring them up 2-1.
Rangers used their one-goal deficit to fuel themselves into action. In the 70th minute, midfielder Stephen Reed sent a free kick towards the Roadrunner goal. After a challenge in the box, the ball dropped to Miller and he volleyed the ball from waste high to earn a Ranger goal, bringing the score to 2-2.
"We were down 2-1 and that was our third free kick in a row, so we had to know it was coming," commented Miller. "Luckily, the keeper came out and missed the ball and it was an opportunity at the goal."
"We battled hard and deserved it," continued Miller. "We have a lot of guys beat up, and the guys that stepped up from the bench played really well."
The Rangers kept the game from going into overtime when they scored again in the 80th minute of play. Reed sent another free kick toward the Runner goal. Defender Jordan Spring was there to header the game-winning goal into the back of the net.
"The goal was awesome," stated Spring. "Then I thought, all right, it's time to play defense."
"Going up first, I had a lot of hope, but then they scored and it almost killed our spirits," continued Spring. "When they scored again, it was all urgency. We just had to get another one."
The men had 10 shots, five of which were on goal. Goalkeeper Scott Brown started the game and tallied one save. After an injury, Sabados took control between the posts earning himself five saves on the day
"I think today was totally about character and a lot of our younger players grew up," stated Head Coach Tony McCall. "At this stage of the season, everybody's a little battered, but we came in and did extremely well."
"Obviously we lost two big players in Scotty and Taylor, but these younger players came in and did their jobs," he continued. "The players showed fantastic character, every one of them performed immensely today and did a fantastic job."
The men will play CSU-Pueblo at 4:30 PM in Pueblo on Friday, October 14th.

Darryl Syler, fleet operations manager for Little Rock, Ark., and 38 technicians operate four shops in which they maintain some 1200 vehicles and machines for the city. "Our biggest challenge is to stay up-to-date with the ability to diagnose and repair our fleet and equipment," he said.
Benefits packages help public works departments attract and retain qualified fleet mechanics, even if public-sector wages run somewhat below the private sector, say fleet managers. Shortages of qualified mechanics appear to be a regional problem.
Providing training for mechanics these days—especially for new heavy equipment—can be a challenge, especially for smaller cities and counties. The solution, most fleet managers have found, is to write training into the purchase contracts for the equipment. Then it becomes the vendor's...
Should you do tire maintenance in-house or contract for it? With your own people, you may have more control, but a contracted shop often can do it for less money.
It's a plight shared by many. Fuel costs have shot up, but tax revenues are the same or down. You're asked to "hold the line" on costs.
If you're a fleet manager, correctly funding your equipment replacement needs is a task that presents a number of challenges. For one, you've got to peer into the future and estimate when you'll need new equipment. And if you "rent" equipment to user departments, then you want to charge them...
In these days of rising costs for everything from fuel to new vehicles, fleet managers are looking high and low for new ways to meet their budgets.

Hi, I will be happy to assist you, and it is my goal to make you a very satisfied customer! This may take a few minutes, so thanks for your patience.
It's really a matter between the person that paid your loan off and the lender. That person would have to make a claim against the lender that the funds were misapplied and that it was the lender's fault. They would have to prove that there was sufficient information for the lender to be aware (or should have been aware of the fact) that the funds should have been applied to a different loan. If that occurs, there is a chance the lender could then bring you into the matter and argue that you into the matter saying you received a benefit you should not have received and were unjustly enriched. It would be an equitable argument on the lender's behalf. However, you can always argue that you brought this to the attention of the lender (that you did not pay and believed this was a mistake). That would change the coin as far as any "fairness" argument on their behalf is concerned. There unfortunately is no way to say for certain that "yes" you could have to pay the money back or "no" that will never happen. However, it would take several steps and you are somewhat insulated. It really is unfortunately one of those cases where you have to wait and see if something ever happens. The statute of limitations for the person to sue would be three (3) years.
The lender told us that the source that paid it off was my fiances former employer. Should we call their accounting department and ask questions or just wait? Do we get the lein release signed off at the dmv? They also told us that because the loan was paid over the payoff amount that they would be sending us a reimbursement check for the difference. Do we cash this or just hang onto it and wait?
If the former employer paid off the loan, there's a very slim chance this was an accident, so there's probably nothing to worry about. Yes, you would provide the lien release to the DMV so they can remove the lien from the title. As far as any check for additional funds, you can put it aside if it's large, but it's really up to you - there's probably no reason to except to be overly cautious in the event that someone does later attempt to get money back from you.
