I have a Supernova E3 Tail Light (see bottom photo) that I want to mount on my Civia Hyland rack. The light has a pair of horizontally oriented holes 50mm apart. The problem is that it has a wire coming out of the back (at the center) that's really thick. It tapers down farther out, but it's so thick that I can't get it through the hole in the rack or the hole in the bracket that has the 50mm spaced holes to hold the light.
Has anyone mounted one of these lights on a rack? If so, did you shave down the coating at the base of the wire connected to the housing? Or did you find some other way to attach the light?

Another Year - Mike Leigh's latest film: Is it a Duck or a Rabbit?
I can't decide. Is Mike Leigh's latest film a duck or a rabbit?
An odd question, I admit, but please bear with me.
I've watched a score of his films over the years and I still can't make up my mind about him.
Is he a filmmaker who produces insightful and compassionate depictions of human nature, or the creator of ghastly, patronising caricatures? I can't decide.
It's not that I swing between these two polar views from one film to the next. I hold them simultaneously while I'm watching one of his films. I feel as though I'm looking at one of those old-fashioned optical illusions. One moment I see the duck; the next the rabbit.
I had this experience again with Leigh's latest film, Another Year. I even watched it twice. You can't say I don't try.
It's another bittersweet study of modern life and stars Jim Broadbent and Ruth Sheen as a late-middle-aged, middle-class couple living in suburban London. Tom is a geologist and Gerri is an NHS counsellor. (Tom and Gerri! Mike, you are a card.)
At ease with their lot, Tom and Gerri serve as emotional life rafts to a couple of their less fortunate friends – Mary (Lesley Manville), a work colleague of Gerri's, and Ken (Peter Wight), a boyhood friend of Tom's. Equally lonely and unhappy, self-deluding Mary and self-loathing Ken ooze desperation from every pore. And as the story rolls through the four seasons, punctuated by Tom and Gerri's regular trips to their beloved allotment, their happiness only gives a keener edge to their friends' misery.
We've seen types akin to Mary and Ken before in Leigh's work, but Tom and Gerri are something of a rarity for the director: a sympathetically drawn middle-class couple – albeit a pair whose backgrounds are salt-of-the-earth working class. A more typical example of Leigh's treatment of middle-class characters would be the cartoonish yuppie couple in High Hopes, Rupert and Laetitia Boothe-Brain, or the evil landlord in Naked.
Leigh generally doesn't get flak, however, for his handling of the middle-class; he's more likely to get stick for his working-class characters. Some even accuse him of offering up a voyeuristic spectacle of lower-class lives for the delectation of middle-class cinemagoers. I don't buy into that, but I do feel that Leigh's working methods encourage his actors to tip over into caricature.
Ah, the famous Mike Leigh Method. You know, I'm sure, how Leigh develops his films. Slowly, painstakingly, with characters and scripts emerging out of months of one-to-one research and improvisation with his cast.
Actors clearly love Leigh's method, returning to work with him again and again. Broadbent, Sheen, Manville and Wight are all Leigh veterans. And I'm sure they and Leigh will tell you that this creative process gives their characters a hinterland, makes them three-dimensional. Why is it, then, that they so often look to me like exaggerated caricatures?
Manville could probably tell you where Mary went to school, where her parents took her on holiday, the names of her childhood pets (or lack of them). What we see on screen is but the tip of the iceberg. So why then does she need to get a cheap laugh (and, yes, the audience does guffaw) by having Mary pause on the doorstep of Tom and Gerri's home to adjust her knickers? Yes, I glimpse Mary's hinterland in Manville's performance, but I also see the self-indulgent mannerisms.
What do I know? The latest Oscar buzz has Manville tipped for an award and Another Year is supposedly a shoo-in for a Best Picture nomination. Yet I know viewers who found both performance and film so unbearable they left the cinema.
Some see only a rabbit, others only a duck. As for me, I can't help seeing both.
On general release from 5th November.

Take a ride with biker Geoff Gulevich as he takes what I'd call an extreme downhill run with a camera attached to his helmet. He calls it "taking it easy."

John and Mimi McGee of Milton win 2013 Toyota CorollaHertrich and Big Fish Restaurant Group give away a car
John McGee of Milton made the "big catch" Jan. 9 when the Hertrich Family of Automobile Dealerships and the Big Fish Restaurant Group gave away a brand-new car.
The giveaway party, held at Firestone Roasting House in Wilmington on the Riverfront, was a culmination of the Big Catch Car Giveaway, a three-month-long contest sponsored by the Hertrich Family of Automobile Dealerships and the Big Fish Restaurant Group that received more than 4,000 entries. Guests at each dealership and restaurant were encouraged to enter by Dec. 15 to win a brand-new 2013 Toyota Corolla.
In January, 100 finalists and their guests were invited to the giveaway party. The evening included 99.5 WJBR, live acoustic entertainment from Marty and Brandi of Cherry Crush, hors d' oeuvres and cocktails.
At 7:30 p.m., Michael Lundin, director of operations for the Hertrich Family of Dealerships, joined Holly Monaco, Big Fish Restaurant Group's director of dining operations, on stage to draw the winner from the final fishbowl. John McGee was the winner.
After their win McGee's wife, Mimi McGee, explained their excitement. "Someone must have had their hand in that bowl; I mean out of 100 people they pick us! We're still in shock," she said.
The grand prize for the Big Catch was a brand-new 2013 Toyota Corolla, but the contest rules state that the winner may choose another Hertrich vehicle valued at up to $20,000. "We're thinking about another Nissan Maxima. We used to drive a Maxima from Hertrich Nissan. We loved it, but it was a lease and we had to give it back, sadly," said Mimi McGee.

Parents of transgender kid: This is our story
SAN DIEGO - Parents from California shared over the weekend the story of their transgender son who became a boy at just 5 years old.
Jeff and Hillary Whittington, of San Diego, were honored at the Harvey Milk Diversity Breakfast last week and they shared a video of their child Ryland's female-to-male transition.
The video includes how Ryland declared she was a boy after a hearing implant and learning how to talk.
His parents embraced the identity -- they cut off his hair, bought new clothes and started referring to Ryland as male.
"It seems like the child is really thriving as a little boy instead of as a little girl," said Dr. Joel Lazar, who specializes in gender-related issues.
Lazar says children can start to understand whether they're a boy or girl between ages three and five, and it's not necessarily based on their bodies.
"At that age, she's so naive as to what it really means to be a boy or a girl, that you feel like at least at that point it's genuine," Lazar said.
Lazar says the transition is not easy for everyone as studies show. There's an increased risk of suicide attempts and depression for transgender people.
He adds the experience can also be challenging for the parents.
"You want to honor what seems to make your child happy, and obviously, as a parent, we have to look at the bigger picture and say OK, at the end of the day, is this really what's gonna be best for your child?"

Cal-New Mexico State Postgame Notes
Related Links
Sept. 12, 2004
Recap | Final Stats | Quotes | Photo Gallery
With today's 41-14 victory, No. 12 Cal improves to 2-0 on the season while New Mexico State falls to 0-2. Cal is 2-0 all-time vs. New Mexico State, its first meeting coming in Coach Jeff Tedford's first season on Sept. 7, 2002 when the Bears beat the Aggies 34-13 in Berkeley. Today was the Golden Bears' fifth win a row dating back to last season, and Cal's seventh victory in its last eight games. Cal has won three home openers in a row under Coach Tedford. The Golden Bears have won four of their last five home openers. The Bears have now scored 40 or more points in three straight games and in six of their past eight games.
Today's attendance of 58,949 was the largest home-opener crowd in Cal history. The former record for attendance at a home opener stood at 56,000, set on Sept. 5, 1992 when the Bears defeated San Jose State, 46-16. It was also the largest crowd to attend a non-"Big Game" at Memorial Stadium since 67,000 attended the Cal v. Nebraska game on Sept. 12, 1998. Today's attendance also surpassed last year's highest attendance of 51,208 v. USC. Memorial Stadium has a total capacity of 67,537.
With his first reception of the game, for 15 yards, senior wide receiver Geoff McArthur became the second-all time leading receiver in Cal history. McArthur had two receptions for 31 yards today and now has 2,364 yards, passing Brian Treggs (1988-91) and Dameane Douglas (1995-98) who both had 2,335 career receiving yards. The all-time leader in career receiving yards is Bobby Shaw (1994-97) with 2,731 yards.
Junior quarterback Aaron Rodgers moved up from No. 15 to No. 11 all-time at Cal in career total offense with 3,595 yards, passing such legends as Russell White and Joe Roth. Rodgers surpassed Paul Larson who had 3,519 yards from 1951-54.
Junior quarterback Aaron Rodgers' 254 yards passing yards in the first half marked his second-best passing performance in a first half. Rodgers' passed for 257 yards versus Washington on Nov. 15, 2003. Rodgers completed 16-of-19 passes (84.2%) and threw two touchdowns in the first half today.
With his four-catch, 111-yard receiving game today, senior wide receiver Chase Lyman has 359 yards in his last three games. Lyman had 526 career yards before the Insight Bowl last season, where he exploded for 149 yards in relief of an injured Geoff McArthur on Dec. 26, 2003 v. Virginia Tech. Today marks Lyman's second 100-yard receiving game of his career; he came close last weekend, catching three balls for 99 yards at Air Force. Lyman is averaging 30 yards per reception this season.
With his three rushing touchdowns today, senior tailback J.J. Arrington is the first Cal running back to have three rushing touchdowns in consecutive games since Lindsey Chapman accomplished the feat v. Stanford (Nov. 20) and Hawaii (Nov. 27) during the 1993 season. Arrington's third touchdown for 69 yards with 7:26 remaining in the third quarter was his sixth rushing touchdown on the year. Today marked Arrington's fourth 100-yard rushing game of his career. With 177 yards on 15 carries today, Arrington has now rushed for 358 yards in the last two games and is already more than halfway to reaching his rushing total of 607 yards last year. Arrington has now has now rushed for 170+ yards in a game on three occasions (185 v. Washington last year, 181 v. Air Force last week, and 177 today). Arrington is averaging 11.5 yards per rush this season.
With four rushing touchdowns today, Cal now has 11 rushing touchdowns in its first two games, a total that eclipses the total rushing touchdowns scored by the Bears in three out of the last six seasons (2001: eight, 1999: six, 1998: seven).
Cal rushed for 336 yards today; the Bears have now rushed for 2,040 yards over the past eight games, averaging 255 rushing yards per game over that stretch. It is the second consecutive game Cal has rushed for 300+ yards in a game.
For the second week in a row, Cal punted for the first time in the third quarter. Out of the five punts junior David Lonie has kicked this season, three have been inside the 20-yard line and two have been inside the 10-yard line.
With its two scores inside the red zone today, Cal has converted 37 of its last 38 trips inside the twenty-yard line into points.
Cal had 611 yards of total offense today. The last time Cal had 600 or more yards total offense was last season v. Washington (Nov. 15) when Cal had 729 yards of total offense. Cal has now gained 1,184 yards of total offense through two games this year (an average of 592 yards per game).
With 2:41 left in the half, Cal committed its first offensive penalty of the season, a false start for five yards.

OU discipline issues are not even close to previous seasons
NORMAN — David King had the same reaction every time heard about a teammate being suspended last season for missing class.
"That's one of the dumbest things," the Oklahoma defensive lineman would think.
But it kept happening.
One Sooner after another missed too many classes, then had to pay the price by athletic department policy. Many sat out practice. Some even missed games.
"That was a big issue last year," King said.
Sooners behaving badly became even bigger issue during the offseason and the preseason. Small cracks in discipline became a flood of suspensions. Jaz Reynolds. Trey Franks. Kameel Jackson. Quentin Hays. Stacy McGee. All were hit with indefinite suspensions.
Safe to say their transgressions were more severe than missing a few classes.
But as the Sooners find themselves once again in the hunt for a Big 12 title, those discipline problems are a thing of the past. No more suspensions. No more issues.
"It was a huge focus for the coaches and our team in the offseason," receiver Kenny Stills said. "It was preached to us about going to class and doing the right things and staying out of trouble."
But discipline is preached every year. Take care of your business. Go to class. Keep your nose clean.
I bet college football players hear a variation on those themes every day of the year.
The Sooners heard it last year, and they're hearing it this year. So, why did the message sink in this time around?
Credit the players.
Bob Stoops does, particularly his seniors who will be honored before their final home game on Saturday.
"They've really been a solid group with their attitude and their character," the Sooner coach said. "They've maintained a really consistent and positive work attitude and been discipline off the field."
He admits the internal standards for behavior slipped last season.
No doubt it started small with those missed classes, but when minor issues weren't taken seriously enough by the players, it opened the door to more egregious errors.
This season is different. Accountability is on the rise.
Evidence of that: Tony Jefferson's Twitter account after Saturday's defensive struggles at West Virginia.
"Horrible game by me," he wrote in the wee hours of Sunday morning. "You can start the bashing. I deserve it. Sorry y'all."
Say what you will about Jefferson falling on his sword — refreshing or unnecessary or something in between — but it's an outward sign of an internal standard. These Sooners are taking accountability for their actions, and that is a result of internal policing by the players.
"Their expectations have been what we're used to having around here," Stoops said of his seniors but expressing a sentiment that could extend to all of the team leaders regardless of class. "They've done a good job of setting an example of how to do it and influencing other guys to do it right."
Miss a class, arrive late to a meeting or do anything else that could earn a suspension, and you'll hear about it.
"The leaders of this team ... they're gonna come up to you and say, 'Why'd you do that? That's stupid. We need you for this game,'" King said.
I don't know if you've seen King talk, but he's a deep-voiced, steel-jawed dude. He looks serious. He sounds serious.
Heck, he is serious.
I'd listen if he told me to cut it out.
King knows that better discipline has had a tangible effect on this team. For starters, having everyone at practice Monday through Thursday makes for a more prepared team on Saturday. And in the Big 12 where there are so many good teams, preparation is vital.
"You can't miss a day a practice ... and think you're going to come out on Saturday and play your best," King said. "That's just not the way it happens. You need a full four days of practice to be prepared."
That the Sooners have a chance to win Big 12 title again this season is no coincidence.
"You never hear about guys at Alabama getting in trouble or being suspended," Stills said of the program that's become the gold standard in college football.
"We're trying to take away the off-the-field distractions. That way we can just take care of business on the field."
Less bad stuff off the field.
More good stuff on it.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Winning Ohio's 18 electoral votes put President Barack Obama's race to re-election on cruise control.
Efforts by Mitt Romney's campaign in the final weeks to counter Obama's touting of the auto industry bailout appeared to have little impact. Pro-Romney ads in Ohio had belittled the president's approach, which Democrats credited with saving plants and many thousands of jobs in the state.
Exit polling of Ohio voters indicated wide support for the federal help that boosted Obama.
The president handily carried northern Ohio areas where much of the state's auto-making goes on as he narrowly captured Ohio for a second time. Romney became the latest Republican to lose Ohio, then lose the race.

This is the first of four Dev Diaries in which we discuss the new additions and improvements in Shadowrun: Dragonfall – Director's Cut, a standalone release of our critically-acclaimed Dragonfall campaign which first premiered as a major expansion for Shadowrun Returns. Stay tuned each Thursday for another Dev Diary, leading up to the game's release on September 18, 2014.
Hi, I'm Andrew McIntosh, Lead Writer on Shadowrun: Dragonfall and the upcoming Shadowrun: Dragonfall – Director's Cut. As a long-time Shadowrun fan (I started playing with 2E, way back in 1992), working with Jordan and the team on Dragonfall was an incredible experience. Now, with the Dragonfall Director's Cut, we're thrilled to bring you even more of the magic-meets-cyberpunk storytelling that we delivered in Shadowrun: Dragonfall.
Today, I'd like to tell you about some of the brand new content we've added to the Director's Cut. Don't worry, I'll keep this post spoiler-free; it's safe to read on, even if you haven't played through Shadowrun: Dragonfall yet.
Companion Story Missions – From the very beginning of our work on Dragonfall, we wanted to include missions that would tie directly into the back stories of the game's major companion NPCs – Glory, Eiger, Dietrich, and Blitz. Unfortunately, during the development of the campaign, it became obvious that we weren't going to have enough time to really do justice to the concept. Ultimately, we decided that if we couldn't do these missions right, we shouldn't do them at all.*
After Dragonfall was released, it became clear to us that our players wanted to experience these missions as much as we wanted to write and design them. This is why, when we decided to move forward with the Director's Cut, companion story missions were at the top of our to-do list.
In Shadowrun: Dragonfall – Director's Cut, you will find three new full-length missions that tie directly into the personal stories of Glory, Eiger, and Blitz. These stories range from supernatural horror to techno-thriller to dark comedy, and each mission touches on a different aspect of the Shadowrun universe.
Your companion characters can also earn unique rewards for completing their story missions. Blitz, for example, can gain the ability to corrupt hostile IC in the Matrix, forcing it to fight with him rather than against him. There are two different rewards for each story mission, but you'll only be able to obtain one of them on any given playthrough. These rewards are separate from those gained in the Crew Advancement system (see below).
*The only concession to this idea that made it into Dragonfall was Dietrich's involvement in an early mission of the game. By the way, don't worry – we're adding a unique reward for him, too.
Crew Advancement – You wanted more control over how your companion NPCs progressed in Dragonfall, and in the Director's Cut, we're delivering! Because Eiger, Glory, Dietrich, and Blitz are their own people, we aren't giving you complete control over their character sheets; Eiger will always be a deadly ranged combatant, and Dietrich will never decide to give up magic and embark on an exciting new career as a decker. Instead, we're implementing a system that will allow you to choose one of two all-new, unique enhancements for each of your companion characters every time they advance in skill.
For example, on a skill-up you might choose to grant Eiger the ability to fire a Dragon's Breath round from her shotgun, penetrating armor and setting opponents on fire. Or you could give her the ability to fire an Interdiction round from her sniper rifle: a discarding-sabot HTI shot that completely ignores armor. Under this system, you will have the flexibility to choose how you would like to specialize your characters within their existing roles.
We're also giving you the ability to customize the weapon, spell, and consumable loadouts for your companion characters, but I'll leave the details on that for a future Dev Diary.
Additional Missions – In addition to the Companion Story Missions detailed above, two other full-length missions have been added to the game.
In "Trial Run," you will undertake a mission for the mysterious Lodge, one of the side factions in Shadowrun: Dragonfall. Over the course of the run, you'll learn how the organization conducts its business… but the Lodge will learn even more about you.
In "Lockdown," you'll get the opportunity to delve into the checkered past of the Kreuzbasar's resident cybersurgeon, Dr. Xabier Ezkibel. Successfully completing this mission will unlock a variety of bleeding-edge bioware upgrades in Ezkibel's clinic. Ever taken serious damage while out of range of a healer? Those shiny new Platelet Factories are just what the Doctor ordered… assuming, of course, that you have a big enough wad of nuyen to afford them.
Additional Endings – Without delving into spoiler territory, I can say that we've always wanted to explore some "what if?" scenarios related to Shadowrun: Dragonfall's ending. There are two additional endings in the Director's Cut; these new endings have been designed to give players even more agency in deciding how the story should unfold.
More Character Development – Several side characters from Shadowrun: Dragonfall have had their roles significantly enhanced, from the enigmatic Absinthe to the anarchistic Lucky Strike.
More Lore – There's even more great Shadowrun lore in the Director's Cut, including more easter eggs for long-time fans of the pen-and-paper game.
And that's not all! But I'll save the rest for our upcoming Dev Diaries.
I know that I speak for all of us here at Harebrained Schemes when I say "thank you" to you, the fans; if it weren't for your enthusiasm and support, we wouldn't have been able to spend these past few months revisiting the Flux State. We're all looking forward to bringing you this definitive version of Dragonfall next month, so get ready to revisit the Flux State – or to dive in for the first time!
Tune in this time next week for our second Dev Diary, in which Jon Everist will discuss his experiences writing the music for Shadowrun: Dragonfall and the Director's Cut!

MOKE INTERNATIONAL – Start Having Fun!
You have seen them around, they turn heads. Maybe you have even been for a ride in one, and if you have then you know what we mean. When you are in a MOKE – you don't just go for a drive – you go for a ride.
For the past 20 years trying to find a MOKE of your own was extremely difficult as this classic cruising mobile stopped being produced in 1993. Even parts were hard to find and these fun machines were being kept cooped up in garages and turned into collector's pieces. Mokes are not meant to be kept cooped up in cages – they are meant to be out cruising around and having fun.
After redesigning and reengineering more than 160 new parts the MOKE is back, and it's better than ever.
It has the same spirit, the same style and is just as suave as the original MOKE – we have just snazzed it up a little. So what are you waiting for? Start up a MOKE and Start Having Fun.Sign Up for MOKE News

Pipeliners, frackers, truckers and other natural gas industry workers can dust off their boots in the locker room at the new 120-room Suburban Extended Stay Hotel at The Highlands.
The hotel officially opened on the south side of Interstate 70 at the hilltop retail development Wednesday, though Kim Polsinelli, director of sales, said guests have been staying at the facility for about 2 weeks.
The hotel joins an array of properties constructed at The Highlands - and throughout the Upper Ohio Valley - over the past few years to accommodate the large number of oil and natural gas industry workers flowing into the area.

The 120-room Suburban Extended Stay Hotel is now open on the south side of Interstate 70 at The Highlands.
"We offer weekly and monthly rates, which is good because some of the workers end up being here for a year or more," said Polsinelli.
"We also have the locker area where they can keep their boots if they want."
There is also a large laundry facility, as well as an outdoor picnic area, both of which Polsinelli said are popular with guests.
Each of the 120 guest rooms comes equipped with a refrigerator, a stove, microwave and sink, she said, while noting that every bed is queen size.
"We are doing extremely well right now," Polsinelli said, noting there was at least one night of 100 percent occupancy. "This is a great location."

How Long Has Grey's Anatomy's Jesse Williams Been Married to Aryn Drake-Lee?
When Grey's Anatomy star Jesse Williams took to the parquet floor of the Sprint NBA All-Star Celebrity Game on February 14, he pre-empted his Valentine's Day with his wife, Aryn Drake-Lee.
We're sure she understood, though, considering how cool an opportunity it is — and we're sure he made it up to her. But how many Valentine's Days has the couple spent as spouses? In other words, how long have they been married?
That's the quiz Wetpaint Entertainment gave Viggle LIVE! users during the star-studded showdown.
Surprisingly, an overwhelming majority of you got the answer wrong — 70 percent guessing that they've been married two years.
They tied the knot on September 1, 2012, folks — so they've only been legally wed for one year and five months.
Give the trivia your best shot! Download the free Viggle app now.
Only 11 percent got that answer right — the remaining 19 percent guessing that they've been married five years. Don't worry — they'll get there!
Think you rule with all your TV and movie knowledge? It's easy — and you even get to earn rewards for watching your favorite shows. All you have to do is download the Viggle app, get watching, and join in on the fun!

Hi everyone I have used the search to find my problem but did not get it fixed.
I have a brand new Dell R710 running 6 servers including my zimbra server running on Ubuntu 8.04 64bit.
I have Zimbra 6.06
My problem is when I hit send in the webmail it takes on average 15 to 20 seconds for the message to send. The browser locks up during this time as well. There are no users running on the server we are just testing now.
In vsphere the only problem I see is the cpu chart looks like a heart beat lots of spikes. These are constant and don't seem to be based on usage.

Upon the recommendation of a few of you. Smaller than I imagined but full of people. Lots of Big 10 folks here - Northwestern, Michigan State, Minnesota. I have not spotted another Cyclone yet, but am hopeful. The highlight so far has been being served my first beer by a guy in an Iowa tshirt - no doubt a past graduate doing what he went to school for. Ah... The world is as it should be!
So far, so good!

Unbelievable! Colorado fans are here. I'm the lone Cyclone!
Update -Well it's halftime and the Clones are doing ok. I've managed to get a seat at the bar right in front of the tv with the game on. All the Northwestern fans have gone away in disgust. The Hawk fans are coming in for their game and soon I will be a Clone / Nittany Lion fan. The only challenge left to me is to not go to the restroom the rest og the afternoon so I don't lose me seat!
Here's to a great 2nd half!
You will see quite a few Hawks show up. You will also wonder where they came from. But the beer flows nice and you are in NYC so drink up!

On Thursday, April 2, board members tried to sooth seething shareholders by pledging to better align pay with performance in the future.
It didn't work.
"This year, there will be very specific parameters and metrics on pay," promised NYSE Euronext Inc.'s deputy chairman, Marshall Carter, at the company's annual stockholder meeting on Thursday.
Golden parachutes—big payouts for top executives should the exchange be sold—will not be offered in the future, chairman Jan-Michiel Hessels pledged, "unless there is extremely good reason." CEO Duncan Niederauer pointed out that much of his $9.2 million in compensation last year was in stock that has shed significant value.
"I may not feel the same pain as you," he told the audience, "but I feel it."
The comments did not sit well with shareholders who pointed out that the NYSE has a particularly rich history when it comes to lavish executive compensation.
A firestorm of bad publicity nearly consumed the exchange in 2003 when then-chairman Richard Grasso was forced to resign after his $190 million pay package became known.
"If you're getting bonuses for performance, that doesn't seem to be working now," snapped one angry investor at Thursday's meeting.
Another shareholder stood up and reminded the board to be "sensitive" when it comes to compensation and revisit its policies "given the history here."
Since the Grasso controversy, the NYSE board has been overhauled and new management appointed. The compensation committee is now headed by Sir Brian Williamson, a former chairman of the London International Financial Futures Exchange. A spokesman said NYSE officials were unavailable for comment after the annual meeting.
NYSE's compensation committee seemed to bend over backward last year to be generous with its CEO. It targeted Niederauer, named CEO in late 2007, for a $5 million "performance bonus" and insisted even in light of poor results that "individual performance would have supported higher award levels," according to a regulatory filing. It ultimately granted the CEO a $4 million performance bonus to reflect a 20 percent reduction in the companywide bonus pool.
In an effort to defuse anger about his pay, Niederauer tried to make a case that the exchange performed better than its dismal financial results and stock price indicated.
Last year, NYSE had a net loss of $745 million on revenue of $4.7 billion, compared with net income in 2007 of $639 million on $3.9 billion of revenue. Its stock price fell to $26.90 a share from $83.81.
Niederauer cited progress in raising revenue and lowering expenses and noted the exchange would have been profitable were it not for a $1.6 billion asset write-down related to the 2007 merger between NYSE and Euronext. Niederauer said it was "good governance" to take the write-down, which auditors require of companies when they determine the asset will not generate the expected cash.
"We try to be a leader in good governance," he said.
Kenneth Steiner, another investor, blasted the board for agreeing to golden parachutes for Niederauer and three other senior executives. Under the terms of that agreement, Niederauer would be awarded $26.2 million if he elected to sell the exchange, which includes the company paying the taxes associated with his windfall.
"How does this benefit shareholders?" Steiner asked.
Hessels, the chairman, replied a little sheepishly: "We did this because we felt two years ago it was common practice."

Mildred Bauerle - May 06, 2013
Mildred Bauerle, 91, of Julesburg, died May 6, 2013, in Julesburg. Mildred was born Aug. 22, 1921, to Fred and Louise (Wieland) Marquardt in Champion, Neb. She was the sixth of a family of nine children.
Her parents moved to a farm five miles northwest of Venango, Neb., when she was 5. She attended country school District #73 near her home. Mildred was baptized on Sept. 11, 1921.
On Nov. 24, 1938, Mildred was united in marriage to Albert Bauerle at her parents' home in Sedgwick County. To this union, two children were born. Eugene Albert was born May 6, 1941, and Karolyn Louise joined the family on Oct. 8, 1946. They lived on a farm south of Venango until 1945. In 1941, they purchased a farm of their own 16 miles southeast of Julesburg.
In December 1973, Albert and Mildred moved to their new home in Julesburg upon retiring from their farm. Mildred enjoyed the farm life and especially enjoyed being with her family.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Albert, in 1992. Also preceding her in death were a sister, Hilda Benker; and brothers, Oscar, Elmer, Arthur, Herman and Herbert.
Mildred is survived by a sister, Elsie Pirrie of Utica, Neb.; brother, Marvin and wife Loraine of Venango; son, Gene Bauerle and wife Dee of Julesburg; daughter, Karolyn and husband Richard Radke of Brush; seven grandchildren; 13 great-grandchildren; and many friends and relatives.
Funeral services were held May 10 at St. Paul's Lutheran Church with Reverend Kurt Hatteberg officiating. Burial followed at Hillside Cemetery.
Memorials may be made in Mildred's name to St. Paul's Lutheran Church of Julesburg or Sedgwick County Nursing Home.
Austin-Tennant Funeral Home of Julesburg was in charge of arrangements.

If we left it up to the networks and their campaign departments, almost no one worthy of an Emmy nomination would make the cut (stop nominating Jim Parsons!). So we here at Indiewire are hoping to start some grassroots campaigns of our own, pushing the best of the unlikely nominees to the forefront and hoping to receive some support from you, our wonderful readers. So far, we've already done our comedy series picks as well as the acting groups -- supporting drama & comedy as well as lead drama & comedy. Below you'll find our picks -- from Indiewire Awards Editor Peter Knegt and Assistant TV Editor Ben Travers -- for the dramas we'd like to see honored by the Television Academy, as well as video evidence of their best work. Votes have been counted and the nominations will be announced tomorrow. Here's hoping some of these make the cut:
READ MORE: 2014 Emmys Predictions
6) "Mad Men"
PK: Now, I know it's hard to feel sorry for a show that's won four best dramatic series trophies, which is indeed the case with "Mad Men," but for the first time the conversation revolving around the show is very muted heading into Emmy time, and I suspect it might very well end up not getting nominated for the first half of its split up seventh season. Which well on the one hand might open the door for the shows that I'll be listing after this, on the other it wouldn't be a deserved snub. Like any season of "Mad Men," round No. 7 was a slow burn, but it paid off significantly in its final episodes and collectively came together in a way that was as layered and complex as any of the seasons to come before it... So if it loses out and say, "Homeland" or "Downton Abbey" make it in, that would just be plain wrong.
6) "The Walking Dead"
BT: You couldn't have said it better regarding "Mad Men" (though I may try a new angle later on in my list). For my No. 6 pick, I've chosen a program I'm actually not a big fan of, but would still love to see make the cut. Why? Because "Game of Thrones," that's why. If I'm forced to pick sides between gory, soulless TV shows with rabid fan bases that thrive on shock value, I'm taking AMC's entry every time. While I wouldn't stack it up against the likes of "Mad Men" or a few other choices on this list, I'd much rather see the zombie drama break into the pack than George R.R. Martin's humorless exercise get another undeserved nomination.
5) "Justifed"
PK: I remain one of the few people on Earth who has seen neither "The Walking Dead" or "Game of Thrones," so I'm just going to happily take your word on all that. And there's really no respectable segue way from them to my No. 5, other than maybe, like: "The Walking Dead" is a genre series the Emmys have never nominated in the top category. "Justified" has got a bunch of nominations over its now five season run (and acting wins for Margo Martindale and Jeremy Davies), but never series. And that is highly unlikely to change this time around given the competition and the lack of buzz surrounding the series' excellent, penultimate season.
5) "Homeland"
BT: I'm already hoping for next year in regards to "Justified." Maybe the Academy will give it a sympathy nod in its final season, much like the love it showed "Friday Night Lights" when it was too late to save it. But it's funny you mentioned "Homeland" in your earlier post. While I've spoken with many fans (former fans now) about the show's disappointing third season, I would still argue the Showtime drama outsmarts enough of its peers to deserve contention. Yes, so-and-so's death was a major bummer, but it also delivered on the promise (/expectation) given to us from Season 1. Yes, Carrie seems to be spinning her wheels a bit, but Claire Danes performance hasn't been dampened and she handled the third season solo for most of its run. The real turning point will come in Season 4, as a whole new story needs to be introduced. Can it succeed? Maybe not, but Season 3 didn't make me lose as much hope as the rest of the viewership.
4) "Orphan Black"
PK: I can half not stand by your "Homeland" defense, only because it was half way through the season that I couldn't take Carrie and company anymore and called it quits. I did hear from even the most severe Season 3 detractors there was some redemption, but I haven't worked up the nerve to seek it out just yet. I just wonder how many Emmy voters found themselves in the same boat? But I digress, and turn your attention to my No. 4: "Orphan Black"! Which, yes, gets a lot more (deserved) attention for its powerhouse lead performance from Tatiana Maslany, but the series itself is pretty consistently awesome itself. And while I have a mild bias in being Canadian (it's the only Canadian show ever to stand even a remote chance at a best series nomination at the Emmys -- sorry "Degrassi" fans), I suspect there's many a non-Canuck that would wholeheartedly agree with me.
4) "Parenthood"
BT: Oh, Canada -- finally putting forth a worthy Emmys contender. From the Great White North, I'll head to the San Francisco Bay and the Braverman family who carry enough awards prestige between them to establish their own ceremony. Peter Krause was on "Six Feet Under" (9 Emmy wins); Lauren Graham from "Gilmore Girls" (1 Emmy win); Craig T. Nelson from "Coach" (2 wins); and the rest of the prestigious cast form a group of actors with a wealth of awards experience. Yet all Jason Katims' family drama has earned from Emmy is a Guest Actor nod for Jason Ritter, which frankly is the least deserving actor to appear on the show. The whole cast should be annual contenders, and the show as a whole is an impressive example of how to best wrangle a large ensemble to full effect. Each character is given his or her own time to shine without losing dramatic emphasis, a practice perfected by Katims on his previous show, "Friday Night Lights." Here's hoping the Academy finally recognizes it for fulfilling the potential of its respected cast.

New Laudnry Sink
We decided to get rid of our laundry sink that had seen some major abuse. Here's a picture of it on it's last leg - back when our laundry room looked like it got hit by an earthquake!
We replaced it with a shiny stainless steal sink and cabinet from Ikea. Katrina and her sister worked tirelessly with Allen wrenches to build our new Swedish cabinet.
Once the cabinet was made, we just had to attatch the doors and sink.
The plumbing in our laundry room had been pretty pathetic for the last 6 months or so. Copper pipes were hanging from the ceiling and leaking to the point where I had to turn them off when we weren't doing laundry... or empty big buckets of water once a week.
Now that we had a new sink, we decided to make a permanent solution to the plumbing and run new water pipes across the ceiling and down the wall to the washing machine and sink.
I used PEX (which I also used to re-route some boiler pipes) because it's super easy to work with. Part of the reason I prefer PEX is because I'm afraid to sweat (aka solder) copper pipe. It was time to face my fears, though. I needed to cut and re-sweat a pipe to make this project work. Luckily Katrina's dad gave me a lesson in sweating copper last time we were at his house, so I already had like 5 minutes of experience under my belt!
A few cuts, some cleaning, flux, heat, and solder, I had my first sweated pipe!
Once the plumbing was done we could set the sink in place.
We still need a faucet on the sink and hardware on the cabinet but We can't actually hook up the sink until the drywall is done anyway so we'll leave it as-is for now. No worries, we haven't needed to use that sink since last summer. Also, it might look like the sink is freakishly tall but we did that on purpose. First, the sink is really deep and it's at a comfortable height for us to reach the bottom. Second, we're going to raise the washer and dryer up an inch so our laundry baskets fit under the front-loading doors and we're going to built a counter on top of the washer and dryer. Once all that's done, the sink will look like it fits in a little better!
Looks great! So how does your washer drain now, if you're not going the utility sink route? Do you have a direct connection to the drains now?

I've been absent from here for a week or so. Though not often, occasionally I have to do some field work. Last week our company field superintendent was on vacation, so I had to step back and supervise some drilling. It was 24 hour a day stuff, sleep when you can. This was a project that was three years in the planning. To reach under the Brazos river at 5000' deep we cut a location from the side of a rather steep slope and then drilled directionally. The hill behind the rig is the highest point within 40miles. Being the boss, I was able to take along my newly upgraded old Schwinn Mesa and ride the roads as opportunity arose. We have a great relationship with the landowner, who welcomed me to bike offroad wherever I was big enough to ride.
Its not often you get to bike on the job, but I was able to ride nearly every day. The pictures don't do it justice. One of the climbs was 400 feet in about 1/4 of a mile....like 25% grade. All in all I had about a 5 mile loop I could ride, which had at least 2000 feet of climbing. Switchbacks? No, they cost too much and tear up too much land, so we just build roads up and over, then grade them closed when we're finished and let nature get rid of them, which it usually does. I kept to the roads rather than going off on little used trails. I now have a new found respect for Stapfam and his mountain biking.
The view was spectacular for our little chunk of hill country here in NTx, with two big bends of the Brazos under a 300 foot bluff. Not much by some standards, but pretty nevertheless. Just wanted to share a few pictures with you guys. That last picture is the view I had out the front of my housing trailer. My apologies for some of the pic quality.

Water broke at 27. Share success story pls!!
As a mom you have the power to stay determined for a positive outcome and give your baby a fighting chance. The statistics just report on a small number of pprom cases they've observed.
pProm'd w/ baby B @ 12 weeks. Our story: www.littledragons626.blogspot.com - Director/Founder of American Alliance for pProm Support: www.aapprom.org
I pPROMed at 30 weeks, had steroid shots and antibiotics and was sent home on bedrest with weekly ultrasounds. I made it to 34 weeks and was induced (which is standard). My daughter was great, was in the NICU for 2 weeks for feeding issues (she didn't drink enough). She is now 6 months old and perfect. Since you ruptured later in your pregnancy, the lungs should be pretty well developped.
I also agree that stats are just numbers. You only had a small chance of having any complications with your pregnancy. Unfortunately you "beat" those odds so you ca beat the odds that the doctors will give you as well! Attitude is more than half the battle!
Take good are of yourself!

Moody's Raises Latvia's Bond Rating One Notch
Moody's Investors Service raised Latvia's bond rating by a notch, citing the country's strong financial position despite regional instability brought on by Russia. Latvia's fiscal deficit is forecast to remain below 1.5% of gross domestic product, Moody's said, adding that it expects the ratio of public debt to GDP to fall to 36% by the end of the year. In 2010, it stood at 46.3%.

BURLINGTON — If you buy strawberry Häagen-Dazs ice cream, Steve Sakuma says, there's an 80 percent chance that you're going to get his berries, which are grown on some of the richest black soil in America, in northern Washington state, about 50 miles from Canada.
And he says there's a very good chance that you'd get berries handpicked by illegal immigrants, too.
Sakuma, 65, surveyed his 250-acre strawberry plot near Burlington in July, pointing to 231 employees, most of them from Mexico, who crouched while handpicking the fruit under a hot morning sun. He estimated that 80 percent of them were in the country illegally, even though they'd provided him with the necessary documents.
Like throngs of other farmers nationwide who rely on illegal labor to harvest crops, Sakuma said he fears that Congress doesn't understand the complexities of his operations. He said he'd go out of business if lawmakers forced employers to electronically verify the immigration status of their employees, and he urged members of Congress to carefully consider the ramifications first.
"These illegal immigrants, or whatever you want to call them, have been around for a long time," Sakuma said. "And guess what? They're not bad. They're just making a living. They're here doing what other people won't do.
"If you think that white America is going to come out here and pick these strawberries, you have been living in the dark for a long time."
While farmers worry about the effects of a federal crackdown on illegal immigrants, backers of legislation that would require verification say it would finally force employers to operate legally and would represent a major first step in fixing the nation's immigration system.
Conflicting directions
Freshman U.S. Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler, R-Camas, said a mandatory verification program would ensure that those who applied for jobs in the U.S. were "legally able" to take them while keeping employers accountable for their hiring.
"The federal government has a constitutional responsibility to defend our borders," Herrera Beutler said. "Unfortunately, for years it has failed to live up to that responsibility."
Mike Shelby, executive director of the Western Washington Agricultural Association, said many producers in the state are facing circumstances similar to Sakuma's.
"They're all vulnerable. … We all agree that immigration reform needs to take place, but we have to be very careful how we approach it. Because if the first thing you do is interrupt the flow of labor for agriculture, you're taking an industry and putting it at tremendous risk."
For Sakuma, the answer is obvious: Allow the workers, who are paid by the pound for their strawberry picking and earn an average of more than $10 an hour this season, to become legal Americans.
"You call that amnesty or whatever you want to call it, it's just the right thing to do," he said. "We're responsible citizens, and we'll do what we believe is right, but change the damn law."
About 270,000 businesses voluntarily use the federal E-Verify program, and backers say that number could jump to nearly 6 million if it became mandatory.
President Barack Obama endorsed the idea at a White House news conference in late June, saying he'd support requiring the use of E-Verify "if it's not riddled with errors" and if it's part of a comprehensive immigration policy overhaul.
While several pieces of legislation dealing with E-Verify have been introduced in Congress, the main bill is sponsored by Republican Rep. Lamar Smith of Texas, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. He objects to the president's strategy, saying E-Verify is important enough to stand alone.
Smith's bill, called the Legal Workforce Act, would require all employers to use the national database to confirm that workers are legal. He said it would open millions of jobs to unemployed Americans. Smith says that there are 24 million unemployed or underemployed Americans, while there are 7 million illegal immigrants working in the country.
"It is not an immigration bill; it's a jobs bill," he said.
Sakuma, one of eight owners of Sakuma Brothers Farms, said most farmers wanted a legal workforce "as much as anyone else," but that the system clearly was broken.
To make the point, he told a story about how his farm was raided a few years ago by federal authorities, who found that some of his employees were in the country illegally.
"They hauled them down to the border," Sakuma said. "Three days later, they were standing in our office, but they had a different name and a different Social Security number."
Sakuma said he consulted with two immigration lawyers in Seattle.
"Both of them told me the same thing: 'You have no choice but to hire them back. If they provide you with a name, and they provide you a Social Security number, you have no choice but to believe them.'"
With so many politicians talking about border security, Sakuma said he worries that Congress will pass the mandatory E-Verify legislation. He just wants members to consider the consequences on farmers across the country.
"It's a tough issue. It's very complex, very complicated, and it's very politicized," Sakuma said. "And I understand politics. But is that really what you want?
"If they had E-Verify here, you'd shut us down. Absolutely."

A new TV ad now running supports the passage of Proposal 2, which Jennifer Gratz of 'Michigan Civil Rights Initiative, says will end state state sponsored discrimination in three areas... contracts, education and employment.
David Waymire, PR representative for 'One United Michigan,' which opposes Prop 2 says, it will eliminate affirmative action programs that have helped both women and minorities in our state.
If passed, race no longer will be considered on college applicants. But, Waymire fears educational opportunities for women will also be in danger.
Waymire, "Outreach programs that get women interested in maths and sciences for jobs and going to universities."
Gratz disagrees, saying, "Those programs, focused on girls... still allow boys to go if they want. That's all this proposal wants to do."
Ultimately, it will be the voters who decide if the proposal would make everyone equal... or be too dangerous a precedent to set.
