With the NFL lockout still in full-swing, free agency, training camp schedules, and a host of other factors are on hold.
As negotiations continue to develop off the field, one prominent franchise has launched a plan to help cut costs at the stadium, regardless of whether games will be in session.
The Washington Redskins announced plans on Wednesday to install thousands of solar panels at FedEx Field. The Washington Post reports that the 8,000 energy-efficient add-ons will reside in the stadium's parking lot, powering a portion of the facility's in-game responsibilities and all electrical needs during non-game days.
Redskins officials released a statement Wednesday morning, unveiling the club's nine-year partnership with NRG Energy. Along with the solar panels, NRG will install 10 charging stations, granting owners of electric vehicles the ability to charge their cars before heading home.
"Our partnership with NRG will add to the fans' game day experience at FedEx Field and offers a unique example of how solar energy installations can do more than generate power," said Dan Snyder, owner of the Redskins, in the statement. "NRG's expertise and vision are a great match for us and we are excited to be part of this effort that will reduce our environmental impact and offer our fans another unique experience."
The Washington Post report adds that Snyder's team becomes the third NFL franchise over the past year to dabble with green stadium technology. Last November, the Associated Press reported that the Philadelphia Eagles revealed a project to add wind turbines, solar panels and a cogeneration plant to Lincoln Financial Field. Those add-ons are geared toward making the club's home turf a self-sufficient area.
In May 2011, the Seattle Seahawks also joined the green fray, engineering a project that will turn Qwest Field's roof into a solar powerhouse. The franchise estimated that the decision would reduce annual stadium utility costs by more than 20 percent.

Also, if I was you I would contact the Dept of Child services -- or whatever its called in Nebraska -- and get them involved as well - shemay need commitment to get her meds regulated and it would be a shame if that was the problem and it wasn't attended to.

Peel That Obama Sticker Off!
There's a reason that many liberals just adore Barack. Americans of the progressive persuasion often enjoy their political beliefs distilled into the simplest form possible — the bumper sticker — and since Obama is limited almost entirely to a single sentence when he attempts to express his political position, the whole thing jives quite well. Barack gets the support of millions of Subaru owners; Subaru owners can express their entire world view in only a four by two sticky square.
That is, of course, if the "cool kids" — and by that I mean solely hipsters, yuppies, American Apparel shoppers, young parents and people with compost toilets in their apartments (I'm looking at you, oh vintage building neighbor) — were leaning towards Obama as the fashionable political hotness.
Turns out, they're not. And for that, perhaps, we should all be frightened.

Normal Exam, Infant
Your infant was seen and examined today in our facility. Our caregiver found nothing wrong on the exam. If testing was done such as lab work or x-rays, they did not indicate enough wrong to suggest that treatment should be given. Often times parents may notice changes in their children that are not readily apparent to someone else such as a caregiver. The caregiver then must decide after testing is finished if the parent's concern is a physical problem or illness that needs treatment. Today no treatable problem was found. Even if reassurance was given, you should still observe your infant for the problems that worried you enough to have the infant checked over.
Your baby is 3 months old or younger with a rectal temperature of 100.4° F (38° C) or higher.
Your baby is older than 3 months with a rectal temperature of 102° F (38.9° C) or higher.
Your infant has difficulty eating, develops loss of appetite, or vomits (throws up).
Your infant develops a rash, cough, or becomes fussy as though they are having pain.
The problems you observed in your infant which brought you to our facility become worse or are a cause of more concern.
Your infant becomes increasingly sleepy, is unable to arouse (wake up) completely, or becomes irritable.
Remember, we are always concerned about worries of the parents or the people caring for the infant. If we have told you today your infant is normal and a short while later you feel this is not right, please return to this facility or call your caregiver so the infant may be checked again.

Hi, I've used these forums recently for info on saddles, and was most fortunate to find all the info I needed. Today I thought I would join so I could post a question. Glad I did seems like a great place to ask some questions or give helpful advice.
I live in Richmond VA and a year ago sold my crisscross schwinn hybrid and bought a $10 centurion and fixed it. see Vince Colvin's Centurion at www.fixedgeargallery.com. I quickly fell in love with my conversion and then learned how to build my own wheels and work maintinance on most all the parts of my new minimalist bike. Four months later I struck black gold and bought a GT GTB off of ebay with a bunch of ugly parts on it. Since then I have been ever joyous rocking my track bike. I used to commute daily to classes and work, now I just commute to work. I was doing regular night ride with some friends but my riding friend is in Norway for the summer. Once the weather turns cold again I am doing an overnighter to williamsburg with my girlfriend who I turned to the fixed side last spring. For now you can catch me biking to work in the mornings or whitewater kayaking on the james after work. Richmond is the S#!T.

Our Knowledge Base covers a wide variety of technical topics, from the basic to the complex.
QuickBase provides an extensive API for developers to access data stored in QuickBase.
For more information, visit the QuickBase developer site at http://quickbase.intuit.com/developer/
The font that is used to enter information is controlled by your browser's setting. Refer to your browser's help for directions on changing font settings.
In QuickBase we call what you refer to as a dependency, a relationship. A relationship always involves two tables.
In the example above one of the tables would be a table of users. The users table would have a field for email address and a field for phone number. The users table, in this relationship, is the master table.
The information in angle brackets uniquely identifies the user so that upon reimporting into QuickBase, QuickBase can unambiguously set the user field to the proper value.
The following URL is embedded in a third-party application web-page. The QuickBase table 9rtyyrty is not anonymously accessible.
i) User clicks on the above URL, a new web browser page is opened which displays the Add Record page for the QuickBase table
The Google toolbar now has a spell check feature that works really well on web forms. This means that you can do spell checking when adding or editing records in QuickBase. The Google toolbar is available from:
In the July 2011 release, we introduced a QuickBase feature called Copy Master and Detail Records. Use this feature to add a button to a master table that either copies the master record with its detail records, or imports a set of detail records into a different master record. QuickBase maintains relationships and dependencies when copying or importing the records.
In HTML, you can create input tags, set the type to "checkbox", and indicate the name using either the field ID or field name. If you don't want your users seeing the field on your form, use the optional parameter "fform" to set the type to be "hidden".
QuickBase has usually less than 8 hours per year downtime for scheduled maintenance. This breaks down to about 5-20 minutes a month, typically. Our service page denotes any current service interruptions as well as a history of last month's service status.
Create a formula field of type "Formula URL - (Link)". Let's assume the first application is a list of action items, and the related application is a list of related files. Then you need to create a formula like the one below:

The "King of the Trill" hooks up with one of the hottest streetwear labels around. It was only a matter of time before Bun B and BeenTrill would cross paths. The UGK legend announces that he has a collabo in the works with BeenTrill and shared the news with Complex. "I'm big in the lifestyle world. One of the freshest guys in the game," he said.
Bun claims to be the originator of "Trill" but sees the brand as "adding something" to the movement. Many have questioned how the rapper feels about the line by Virgil Abloh, Heron Preston and Matt Williams using the word "Trill" but Bun says that it's all love. "I love what they're doing with the brand…We're working on a collaboration that answers all these questions and lets everybody know who stands where," he explains.
BeenTrill has been a favorite of rappers of late, especially Kanye West. Travis Scott and Chief Keef have both worked on their own collabo lines as well.

50th Anniversary Trailer Breakdown: Monsters & Everything Else
The rest
The policeman from An Unearthly Child, matching the very first opening moments of the show.
We're back at 76 Totter's Lane where our glorious show began.

Who can you make out?
Behind the scenes
Bonus: here's a behind the scenes look at the scene filmed in Totter's Yard.

I said I think JLo is the best on the grid when he gets his bike right. He rides fast and is probably the best defensive rider which is why he pushes to the front in the first few corners. This has also forced Stoner to make some ridiculously risky passes in places no one would expect
The difference will be when Stoner is off his game its a 3rd. When JLo is off his game its 3 Honda's ahead or even a DNF. JLo is working really hard out there and is the only rider on the grid that is up to the task of beating Stoner.
And it should be said that you are a complete tool, but I'm sure you already know that.

If you are using AT&T as your service provider and you are accused of copyright infringement by a rights holder, you could end up losing your internet access if you don't pay attention to the notices the company sends you as part of its compliance with the "six strikes" system to fight copyright infringement online.
As uncovered by TorrentFreak recently, AT&T has been sending customers accused of copyright infringement with notices containing the following small print:
"Through the Copyright Alert Program, users are given an opportunity to understand and change behavior that may be resulting in Copyright Alerts. However, if they receive multiple Copyright Alerts, they may encounter corrective action — or mitigation measures — which may limit or inhibit Internet access."
Under the guidelines of the "six strikes" scheme adopted by many U.S. Internet service providers, those suspected of copyright infringement will get up to six notifications before the ISPs take corrective action. This could ultimately lead to disconnection.
Letters being sent are at the request of a copyright owner who has identified a suspected copyright infringement at the recipient's IP address. As a number of courts in the United States have determined, finding an infringement at an IP is a long leap from proving that the owner of the IP has actually infringed on something. Basically all it takes to get the ball rolling is an accusation.
AT&T claims that the recipient of these "six strikes" notices do not have their name and identifying information shared with rights holders, "except as required by a lawful request for records." That's a pretty vague explanation by anyone's measure.
AT&T also tells those that receive notices that the company has not taken any action to date, and that "we'll let you know when mitigation measures are pending, should any be necessary." The notice also states that users may request an "Independent Review" and that those who have been accused should save any documentation that might help prove that your use of the content in question was non-infringing.
The notice almost always contain a link to educational materials about copyright – www.copyrightinformation.org.

DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — A southwest Ohio man has been indicted on aggravated murder charges in the shooting deaths of his ex-girlfriend and her male friend.
Montgomery County's prosecutor says 34-year-old Harvey L. Jones of Dayton was indicted Thursday in the Jan. 24 shootings of 32-year-old Carly Hughley and 29-year-old Demetrius Beckwith.
Prosecutor Mat Heck Jr. says Jones went to Hughley's Harrison Township home and made Hughley and Beckwith lie on the floor before he shot them multiple times.
Heck says Hughley's 10-year-old son witnessed the killings and ran to a nearby apartment for help. Heck says Jones fled after taking belongings from Hughley and Beckwith.
Jones was indicted on multiple charges of aggravated murder, aggravated burglary, aggravated robbery and kidnapping and weapons charges.
A message was left Thursday at his attorney's office.

New Website Aggregates Federal Reserve Community Development Resources
Users who tap the Atlanta Fed website for community development resources now have a much broader source to explore. In June, the Federal Reserve System launched the website FedCommunities.org, which includes research, publications, multimedia resources, and more.
Through this single web gateway, users can access hundreds of relevant community development materials from all the Federal Reserve offices. Interested in audioconferences on workforce development approaches or data on foreclosure mitigation efforts? Users can find information on these topics and others on the new site.
Robust search functions will help users locate resources across multiple topics and media types. Regular users can also sign up to receive notifications when new resources are added.
FedCommunities.org also features the new interactive report Federal Reserve Community Development Perspectives: A Summary of Activities, Insights, and Future Opportunities. The report showcases the Fed's recent community development efforts to address barriers to economic growth and promote fair and informed access to financial markets. It includes brief summaries of community development work at the Fed, organized into four topic areas: people, place, policy and practice, and small business. Within each area, there is background information that helps to provide context for this work; a sampling of key research, outreach programs, and other initiatives; and ideas on future challenges, needs, and opportunities.
View the web portal and interactive report, or access an archived webinar that describes these resources in greater detail.

For the commenter who wrote on my blog, "I don't see (as a gay, formerly married, father) where ['Brokeback'] merits culturally significant status," I direct you to today's New York Times and a story titled "Many Couples Must Negotiate Terms of 'Brokeback' Marriages." Who knows if it's going to stick, but when a movie's title becomes part of the everyday vernacular of a culture, I'd say it's pretty significant. Aside from the late-night jokes, this phrase "brokeback marriage" seems to be circulating in the blogosphere with what I expect to be increasing regularity. (Google only had 105 entries, but just you wait.)
As for "Crash," well, I'd say this movie was more of an insular phenomenon and its 8th-grade level of TV sophistication will be forgotten soon enough, like most television shows after the commercial break. When Lionsgate re-releases the movie on Friday in about 150 screens in the U.S., according to Variety, hundreds of people can see how unworthy and hamfisted the movie is (best editing? give me a break), and how much of its Oscar victory comes from its company-town background. As one Hollywood player noted in David Carr's NY Times Oscar roundup "Los Angeles Retains Custody of Oscar," "''Crash' was far more representative of the our industry, of where we work and live." Especially if you're in the movie industry, as many are, where nothing is remotely close to reality.

Cucumber and tuna rice cake refresher
Cucumber and tuna rice cake refresher
Here's a great idea! Spread a rice cake with a little tomato salsa and then top with fresh ingredients to make a 'pizza' rice cake. Delicious, healthy and easy. Yum!
prep: 0:03
- 2 tbsp tomato salsa
- 4 SunRice thin brown rice cakes
- 80g tin flavoured tuna of choice
- 1/2 Lebanese cucumber, sliced
- 4 slices canned beetroot, diced
- 1 tbsp super sweet corn, canned and drained
- Spread 1/2 tsp tomato salsa onto each rice cake.
- In a small bowl, mix together tuna, cucumber and beetroot, then evenly spoon this mixture over each rice cake.
- Sprinkle with corn.
- You can just use this recipe as inspiration if these exact ingredients aren't your favourites.
- You could swap the tuna for salmon or diced chicken, and the cucumber, beetroot and sweet corn could be swapped for diced red capsicum, gherkin or tomato.
- This recipe was written for SunRice by Kara Landau, nutritionist and dietitian.

Source: Peace Corps
In 1965, perched on the side of a steep hill in Tansen, Nepal, stood a tiny 9-foot-by-13-foot house with a tin roof and a windowless first floor. The house lacked electricity and running water. Neighbors did not understand why its inhabitant lived alone. Surely he would be greeted by unfavorable ghosts, they thought.
Yet the strange inhabitant continued to live there apparently ghost-free. William Kieffer (PolSci'63) pushed on with his Peace Corps assignment — teaching English to local Nepali students. Unbeknownst to him, he was blazing the trail for the more than 2,300 CU-Boulder alumni who have served in the Peace Corps since its inception in 1961. This year the university was ranked fourth in the number of Peace Corps volunteers currently serving. In 2011 and 2012, it was ranked first in the nation.
While many of these volunteers felt the immediate impact of their service, much of their Peace Corps experience has shaped the rest of their lives.
Kieffer joined the Peace Corps in 1964 after Sargent Shriver — founding director of the Peace Corps — visited San Francisco State and urged students like Kieffer, who enrolled there after graduating from CU, to apply. Shriver was appointed by his brother-in-law President John F. Kennedy to establish the program with three goals: to meet the needs of countries with trained men and women, to promote a better understanding of Americans to the people being served and to give Americans a better understanding of other cultures.
"I had adventure in my heart," Kieffer says. "The Peace Corps gave me the opportunity to get involved. Shriver opened the door, and I walked right through it."
Eager to go abroad, Kieffer applied and received his Nepal assignment within the month. Today about one in three Peace Corps applicants is selected after a six-to-eight-month application process, says Cedar Wolf, CU-Boulder's Peace Corps coordinator. It includes an interview, a legal background check and medical clearance. Volunteers fill positions in one of six areas — education; youth and community development; health and HIV/AIDS; business development/information and communication technology; agriculture; and environment.
"We always tell Peace Corps volunteers to go in wanting to help people rather than wanting a specific location or project," Wolf says. "We encourage people to be flexible and to have two or three different programs in which they are willing to serve."
When volunteers receive their assignments, they are sent to their prospective countries for about three months of in-country training before they travel to their assigned communities. But until the early 1990s, volunteers trained in America.
Kieffer's group bound for Nepal had 45 people — including Dave Carlson (PolSci'64, MA'69), David Lewis (A&S'64) and William Robinson (PolSci'64) — who trained at George Washington University and in Hawaii. They studied the Nepali language and learned about the culture and geography along with how to teach. Physical training included running up and down stairs of the Washington Monument.
No amount of training, however, could have primed Kieffer for the culture shock that overwhelmed him after he arrived in Tansen, a hilltop town of several thousand people.
He was unprepared for the lack of water and electricity and realized his physical training was woefully inadequate. His assigned location was a day's walk from the nearest road. He paid a woman to carry him water in three-to-five-liter cans daily from the bottom of the hill. He read and wrote his mother detailed letters by candlelight. A response took at least a month to arrive.
As one of the first Peace Corps groups in Nepal, Kieffer also was slammed with the realization that his teaching assignment could have very little impact on the school. His students were either in classes too large or displayed little interest.
"My assignment was nearly hopeless," he says. "There was no way I could make a major impact on what I wanted to do."
Despite his frustrations, Kieffer never thought of backing out of his assignment. He learned to make the most of his time and reap the value of his term.
Often, it is important for volunteers to realize their service is more long-term than immediate, Wolf says.
"In two years big projects can happen, but on the whole [volunteers] can't go into the Corps with the mindset that they are going to change the world," Wolf says. "They are planting the seeds of change that will occur over a person's lifetime."
Across the country's western mountains in a village named Baglung, Carlson was having a different experience. While he, too, experienced culture shock, he and Lewis were warmly welcomed by their village and taught enthusiastic high school students English and science. They also developed a more sanitary sewage system for the villagers who often did not understand the need for latrines.
"We were very intent on persevering to the point where after six months we started to feel so much more at ease," Carlson says. "Then our whole world changed."
The pair became extremely engaged in their service, seeing their work directly benefitting the community to the point that Carlson's life focus changed to helping others. Amid his difficult situation, Kieffer also recognized his impact in unintended ways.
He fondly remembers when a teenager named Kul Chandra Gautum ambled into a house where some Peace Corps volunteers were playing chess. Gautum was fixated by the game and returned to the house daily, asking them enough questions to make the volunteers realize Gautum's extreme intelligence. They worked through the U.S. embassy to secure him a scholarship to Dartmouth College. Gautum eventually received a master's degree from Princeton and had a very successful career with UNICEF.
"This is a kid who wandered into a Peace Corps house," Kieffer says. "That's the kind of unintended positive impact the Peace Corps can have."
Some volunteers find their work so rewarding they extend their service. Kerri Courtney (Hist'06), a social studies teacher, stayed an additional year in 2009 in Namibia, Africa, empowering the young women she taught, emphasizing the need for gender equality. Her 7th-to-10th-grade students never had been taught by a foreigner before and were interested in places beyond their village. She showed her students videos and letters from the U.S. to help them grasp a different culture.
Courtney says her time in the Peace Corps was exactly what she had hoped it would be.
"I'm still reflecting on all the ways the Peace Corps has impacted my life," she says.
Upon return to America, many remain invested in their country of service and often attend graduate school for research, Wolf says. Laura DeLuca (PhDAnth'02) received her doctorate years after serving in the Peace Corps as a teacher near Kisumu, Kenya, from 1987-89. She left her assignment in Africa with many questions about the culture of her village and sought answers through academic scholarship.
DeLuca teaches several Africa-related courses at CU-Boulder, conducts research in such areas as conservation, African policies and refugees and co-edited a book about community-based peace building. A saying she learned from Luo villagers has helped shape her outlook: "Haraka, haraka haina baraka," which translates to "Hurry, hurry has no blessing."
"In the Peace Corps you're immersing yourself and trying to figure out how society works," she says. "It opens up a new world."
For most volunteers, the Peace Corps is the first step in a lifetime of public service.
"Ever since the Peace Corps, I've always sought jobs with a focus on community service," says Carlson, who worked at Community Food Share in Boulder before retiring. He and several others from his Peace Corps group are involved with the nonprofit he helped start, Friends of Nepal, which is committed to helping development within the country to strengthen Nepalese communities.
Even though his tiny Nepali house was never ridden with ghosts, Kieffer was haunted by his powerful experiences in the Peace Corps. After he completed his assignment, he received his master's degree and doctorate at Michigan State University. Years later he became field director of Plan International, which gives donors the ability to sponsor children in other countries. In 1978 he launched the program in Nepal — where his life's journey started 14 years earlier.
"I would not have had the opportunity to go back to Nepal without the Peace Corps experience," he says, adding that starting Plan International in Nepal was one of his life's greatest accomplishments. "The Peace Corps was the first brick in the wall."
Christie Sounart (Jour'12) is interim assistant editor of the Coloradan.

For those that missed my first letter click here
This is from my mother in law Patricia Laurito
Hi Brigid, I just want to tell you how proud I am of you. When you told me about the women with RA you helped not to take her life, it gave me goose bumps. Sometimes God gives us things that we say why me, but God also gives us hope, faith and strength. I see what RA has done to you and the pain the you endure each day, but I see what you have done for other RA people with your blog and reaching out to others with information they didn't have. You are a very strong women and I'm so proud of you. Keep doing what you are doing by reaching out to these people. I pray every day that God will take RA away from you and leave you pain free. I also pray for Joe, Julia and everyone in our family that God helps us to help you. Love you! MIL

Think about terraces and indoor/outdoor farming. Mountains shorten the growing season, but a system of terraces for growing grains and root crops would allow them to get the most possible yield out of limited space. If you have affordable glass then they could have greenhouses. If glass is rare, then they could use carts to move potted plants out under the sky during the day and into a protected space at night.
Mountain soils are typically poor, as precipitation leaches out the nutrients and sends them down slope, so they would ultimately need to bring in more nutrients from elsewhere. One way to do that would be goats and sheep allowed to range out during the day and brought under protection at night. Another way would be to cart up hay to feed animals, or manure, or any kind of animal waste from lower elevations on a periodic basis. Total agricultural self-sufficiency on a mountain would be tough, but it could be arranged so that they could grow most of their own food and bring up the least expensive amendments from below.
Look into Inca agriculture for some more ideas.

Kirsten Dunst splits from Jake GyllenhaalKirsten Dunst has split from boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal.
The stunning 'Spider-Man' star has reportedly dumped the 'Donnie Darko' star after two years together.
Jake is said to be distraught, but his spokesman insists the break-up was amicable.
He told America's USA Today: "They split a while ago and they remain close and are still the best of friends."
Kirsten remained tight-lipped about the state of her love life at the recent London premiere of 'Spider-Man 2', saying: "I don't discuss my private life."
Friends claim the pressures of the couple's successful movie careers put strain on their relationship.
One told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "Kirsten and Jake had been spending a lot of time apart because they both had a lot of filming commitments.
"But Jake was totally besotted with her and is totally devastated that she has broken up with him."
The pair starting dating after being introduced by Jake's actress sister, Maggie, who co-starred with Kirsten in 'Mona Lisa Smile'.
Jake recently confessed his love for Kirsten, saying: "She's the only girl for me", and even claimed he was desperate to make a movie with her because he thinks she is such a wonderful actress.
Kirsten, who has previously dated her 'Spider-Man' co-star Tobey Maguire and 'Six Feet Under' actor Ben Foster, also appeared to be smitten with Jake, saying last month: "I am really happy and in love."

Terminally ill people who want to die can take drugs to end their lives peacefully. Ailing pets are put down humanely every day. Clearly, the technology exists to bring about a quick and painless death.
Why, then, do executions by lethal injection sometimes become troubling spectacles? The death in Oklahoma on Tuesday of Clayton Lockett, amid struggling and apparent pain, was not the country's first bungled execution.
Several factors have conspired to produce painful scenes in the death chamber, experts say: an ill-conceived drug formulation clung to by many states; the lack of medical expertise among people planning and carrying out executions; and, more recently, drug shortages that have pushed prison officials to improvise lethal cocktails and buy drugs from loosely regulated compounding pharmacies.
According to prison officials in Oklahoma, an intravenous line inserted into Lockett's groin did not work properly and interfered with the flow of drugs. But doctors say the drugs themselves, three used in a certain sequence, are a deeper part of the problem, because two cause suffering if they are administered improperly. And those two drugs are not necessary.

Physicians have long known that massive doses of single drugs — certain sedatives or anesthetics — can take a life painlessly and with far less distress than the three-drug cocktail causes if the injection is botched.
Since 2010, more death-penalty states — Oklahoma not among them — have moved to use single drugs for lethal injection. Even critics of the death penalty say most of those executions have gone more smoothly than ones involving multiple drugs.
Barbiturates — including sodium thiopental and pentobarbital — infused into the bloodstream can quickly make a person go deeply unconscious, stop breathing and die. Dr. Mark Heath, an anesthesiologist at Columbia University and an expert on lethal injection, said high doses of pentobarbital were routinely used to euthanize animals, from pet rabbits to beached whales.
Barbiturates alone have been used in 71 executions, in Arizona, Georgia, Idaho, Missouri, Ohio, South Dakota, Texas and Washington, said Jennifer Moreno, a lawyer with the Berkeley Law School's Death Penalty Clinic.
Heath, who opposes lethal injection, said
that switching to a single drug would not fix all the problems with lethal injection because intravenous lines would still be needed. Starting them requires medical skill.
The three-drug combination used on Lockett was modeled on a plan developed in Oklahoma in 1977 by Dr. Jay Chapman, then the state's chief medical examiner. State lawmakers had asked him if there was a more humane way to execute people than electrocution and the firing squad.
Chapman proposed a large dose of a barbiturate, sodium thiopental, followed by two other drugs: one to cause paralysis and halt breathing, and the other, potassium chloride, to stop the heart. His recipe was adopted by nearly every death-penalty state.
The potential pitfall in the original formula is this: If the barbiturate is not fully effective, perhaps because the dose is too low or the needle misplaced, the inmate may still feel pain. If the paralyzing agent is then injected, the person will feel suffocated — but will be unable to move or cry out and may even look peaceful. The potassium chloride then will cause an intense burning sensation, muscle cramping and chest pain.
"The second two drugs are completely unnecessary and only have a prospect of causing pain," Heath said.
The odds of the drugs being administered incorrectly may have been higher than Chapman anticipated because many lethal injections have been performed by people with little or no medical expertise. Although some doctors participate, many have distanced themselves, seeing execution as a betrayal of their oath to do no harm.
In recent years, supplies of sodium thiopental and pentobarbital have dried up because their European makers refuse to sell them for lethal injections. Prison systems have responded by concocting new formulas, sometimes, as in Oklahoma, sticking to three-drug combinations.

FOX47 NEWS - A Future Without GM
Jeff Angileri
More than sixty people met in Janesville today, to talk about the economic future of the area, after General Motors closes its doors.
The conference featured experts on building strong regional economies, who told people not to panic. They say cities around the country have faced similar scenarios and found ways to weather tough economic times.
With more than 2,000 jobs soon to be eliminated at General Motors, and perhaps hundreds more due to the domino effect, the city of Janesville is facing an economic debacle. And experts say, so is the entire region.
If a neighbor is struggling, it affects the whole neighborhood, said Gary Wolter, with the Collaboration Council.
Members of Thrive, the non-profit economic development group, say regional collaboration is key to the survival of all the communities in south-central Wisconsin.
Environmentalism, education, workforce issues--you can't look at one city or county in isolation, said Wolter.
They hope to turn today's talk into tomorrow's action.
More momentum, more energy, more people telling the story, really building better awareness and education for all the citizens about the direction of the future, said Mike Langley, an economic regional collaborator.
Diversity is the future, according to Thrive. For the area to succeed after GM's departure, people need to promote and strengthen other regional assets--like agriculture, healthcare, and bio technology.
Langley helped rustbelt cities rebuild after losing major industries, and said Janesville can turn its economy around, too.
If you look at Pittsburgh today, you'll find that we're not dependent on any one type of business, or sector of business, said Langley. We have a very diverse economy.
Thrive specifically chose Janesville as the sight of its semi-annual meeting because of GM's announcement.
Columbia, Dane, Dodge, Green, Iowa, Jefferson, Rock, and Sauk counties make up the eight county Madison region, according to Thrive.

Gunnery Sgt. Carlos Hathcock is credited with killing an enemy soldier from a distance of 2,500 yards, the longest confirmed successful hit in the 20th century. The Intervention rifle, made by CheyTac LLC, may make that distance seem normal for snipers.
This bolt action sniper rifle was developed to be used with a laser rangefinder and two devices that monitor ballistics and wind, air temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure. During tests on the company's range, the system maintained a three-shot group of 16 5/8 inches at a distance of 2,321 yards, a record for sniper rifles.
Although Mark Walhberg uses this rifle when portraying a Marine in the 2007 movie "Shooter," there is no word of the Intervention rifle being employed by the Marine Corps.

Name: Archipelago House
Designer: Tham & Videgård Arkitekter
Location: Stockholm, Sweden
Archipelago House is a minimal home located in Stockholm, Sweden, designed by Tham & Videgård Arkitekter. The layout of the plan is generated by the specifics of the site. The house is placed on the flat surface between two mountain rocks, and turns simultaneously towards the sun in the South and frontally towards the sea in the West.
With the small rooms located in the back, the rest of the house stands out as an open platform criss-crossed by panes of sliding glass. The zig-zag layout also offers several outside spaces sheltered from strong winds. The house is organised in layers, the big rooms expand with an open relationship to the wooden deck. A horizontal wooden trellis diffuses daylight and enhances the character of one continuous space, where the distinction of interior/exterior becomes subordinated.

After a long battle over the summer to regain full fitness, on Monday the midfielder trained under the orders of Tito Vilanova for the first time this season
The squad recovered from the game against Osasuna as the focus switches back to the Supercup and Wednesday's return leg at the Bernabéu
The players were joined by Barça B's Masip and Tello
Not many hours after the hard-fought win in Pamplona thanks to two late goals from Messi (1-2), the Barça first team got straight back to work on Monday as preparations begin for the second leg of the Spanish Supercup on Wednesday at the Bernabéu. For the first time since returning after the summer, Thiago did part of the session with his team mates.
Recovery for starters
As usual on the day after matches, the players that started against Osasuna did gentle exercises in order to recover from the previous day's exertions. Sergio Busquets, Andrés Iniesta and Gerard Piqué all stayed in the gym to do specific training, while the first team was joined by Masip and Tello of Barça B.
But the best news from the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper was that Thiago Alcántara, for the first time this season, was able to take part in some of Tito Vilanova's session along with the rest of the team.
The midfielder has spent the summer suffering from a tibia injury after taking a knock in the Copa del Rey Final against Athletic Bilbao. The injury meant he was unable to appear at the Olympic Games, but it looks like the long road to recovery is finally over.

any recommendations for a good track cog? mine has stripped out. also what are the pros/cons to 3/32" as opposed to 1/8"? im guessing its just the different sizes of chains that are compatible with each width?
any recommendations for a good track cog? mine has stripped out. also what are the pros/cons to 3/32" as opposed to 1/8"? im guessing its just the different sizes of chains that are compatible with each width?
The threads on the cog stripped or the threads on the hub stripped? Usually it's the hub that strips, in which case another cog isn't going to help.
In any case, EAI and Phil Wood cogs are both fine choices.
Dura Ace all the way
Especially given the price.Originally Posted by deathhare

Actually, it might just be easier to say which cogs one should stay away from, as there are plenty of decent cogs out there these days. Also, in reply to the OP, 1/8" vs 3/32" just refers to the physical thickness of the cog teeth. 1/8" is track standard.
Yeah, and don't assume 1/8 is the BMX standard... I goofed on that one. Last night found out I need to buy a new chain (oh well, shouldn't part out my BMX bike for the fixie anyways). Apparently none of my 3 BMXs have 1/8... even the pretty silver/red KMC
at a michaux 50mi XC race i saw a guy racing fixed, he didnt finish because his EAI cog sheered apart. i spoke to him after the race and he said it wasnt the first time it happened! a portion of cog containing 4 or 5 teeth came off in a whole chunk. pretty amazing!
i dont think this would be an issue riding on the street.
i have a surly cog on my bike right now, still have a DA that I've used a little bit, and I've had no-name "crappy" cogs on there... Hard to notice much of a difference.
basically just stay away from any cogs that are stamped from a single piece of flat metal, any whose threads are visibly uneven or don't look well machined, or any whose threaded flange doesn't look as wide as the others. dura-ace is a great cog for the money, but has limited sizing. EAI and phil are fine cogs but a little pricier because they are nicely finished.
personally, I didn't trust the surly cogs when i saw them at the LBS. I've run dura-ace and the Blue Collar (milwaukee) on mine and they're roughly comparable in quality and price.
I've used Campagnolo, Dura-Ace and Suntour, and purely subjectively the Suntours feel fastest. They're hard to find now but I rate them very highly.
Dura-Ace and Campagnolo are about the same.
I'd love to get one of those cogs Tomity makes.
Anyone had any bad experiences with Roselli cogs? I'm running one at the moment.
Suntour. Funnily enough, it is the only cog in stock at my LBS, and I'd rather grab these at next to nothing than order something. Good lockrings as well, included.

The United States Men's National Team was in Philadelphia at Lincoln Financial Field on Saturday for a World Cup warmup "friendly" against Turkey. It was one of the team's last games before World Cup action starts on June 12th against England. With lots of questions about the team, specifically their defense,the U.S. was looking to find some chemistry and potentially some momentum and confidence. After trailing early, the United States came back and defeated Turkey 2-1.
The United States trailed Turkey 1-0 after a first half of relatively uneven play. When the U.S. was taking care of the ball, they created opportunities. They were playing relatively wide open. Counter-attacking was the story of the half. When the U.S. drove deep into Turkey's end, they were quickly barraged right back. This was the case unfortunately for U.S. defenseman Jonathan Spector. Spector got caught sleeping on the right side of the back line and nearly single-handedly gave up the lone goal.
In the second half at 58 minutes, the United States tied it up on a great combination from Landon Donovan and Jozy Altidore. Donovan made a run behind the defense, received a great lob pass from Robbie Findley inside the Turkish goal area. Donovan handled the ball beautifully as he beat the Turkish goalkeeper right with one touch before crossing left to a wide open Jozy Altidore. Altidore smashed it down the center of the untended net. It was a great goal as Donovan made a great pass and Altidore timed his run perfectly to find space in between at least three Turkish defenders.
The United States' second goal came in the 75th minute as Clint Dempsey bulldozed through a tackle before blasting the ball off the Turkish goalkeeper and in. The ball was delivered to Dempsey by Landon Donovan off a throw-in right after a U.S. substitution. Dempsey's first touch seemed a bit lucky, but all that matters is that his second touch put the ball in the back of the net.
The U.S. had many other good scoring opportunities in the second half. Dempsey almost added a second goal on a nice feed. He hit the outside of the right post. On a free kick just outside the 18 yard box, Jose´ Francisco Torres almost caught the defense sleeping on the near side. His quick bender over two near side defenders just hit the outside of the Turkish net.
As the U.S. now heads to South Africa for the World Cup there are a few things that should benefit the team. United States goalkeeper Tim Howard is clearly a team leader. In the first half before the first goal was scored, Howard came screaming out of his net after some tentative defense almost cost the U.S. a goal. The defense seemed to play more aggressively after that to mixed results. Regardless, the leadership that Howard provides to the somewhat suspect defense will be very important if the U.S. plans on doing anything in World Cup play.
Howard backed up his leadership with impressive play. He could hardly be blamed for the lone goal. On other occasions Howard came out and made impressive plays. On one play, Howard was forced to cover for his defense coming outside the 18 yard box to head a ball to safety. On another play that was eventually called offside, Howard came out, effectively choked the angle away from the offensive player before knocking the ball away with his right hand on a diving slide.
The U.S. took care of business, but questions still remain. The United States played a poor first half and even though they scrambled in the second half, their play was far from providing confidence going into the World Cup.

Lessons Learned from Confessions of a Chase Representative
Posted By Jim On 01/07/2008 @ 7:25 am In Banking | 8 Comments
I love the Consumerist's Confessions articles and recently they had one from a Chase representative [3], which taught me quite a bit about the inner workings of a bank and credit card company. The Confessions articles are fantastic because you get actionable information from an insider willing to tell you how things really work. In this case, it's a customer representative and they validate a lot of ideas people have had about how to work with them. Here are the lessons I've learned and distilled from the confessions article.
First off, you should be civil and courteous to anyone you ever deal with. There's simply no reason to be a prick about anything, even if you are having the worst day of your life. Everyone you deal with is a human being and everyone, deep down inside, wouldn't mind helping someone out if that person is being nice to them. No one likes being talked down to, insulted, berated, or any of the other things you'd be doing if you flipped out on them. So be civil, courteous, polite, nice, whatever, and you're more likely to get the results you like.
Stores are great for books and movies, they're not good for resolving problems unless the solver needs them. Get to the point of your call ASAP and then let the representative ask pointed questions to dig down deeper. They know the root cause, let them ask questions to find the answer and you won't waste both of your times giving useless information over the phone.
This was interesting and not unexpected, there are three strata of customers (Best, Valuable, and Non-Profit) and I'd guess that every financial institution as at least three categories. What you should take away from this is that you should try to be in the least valuable category (Non-Profit) and learn from the mistakes of the other categories. One interesting point to make is that they don't consider spending patterns in the calculation (or the confessor just didn't mention it) because even if you get 1% cash back, the credit card is still earning money on transaction fees. I also disagree with the idea that they won't waive fees for Non-Profit customers, I'm pretty non-profit and I get fees waived.
Very valuable to learn, you can get fees waived about once every six months – especially if you're nice. I would try to get them waived even if you do get hit more often than every six months and then I'd try to fix my behavior so I stop getting dinged all the freaking time.
Those are the things I learned reading that article, did you get anything else out of it?

Alright! My first post! Hey everyone, first I'll tell you some things about me, and how I got here, off I go:
I am a member of Zelda Dungeon, and when looking at the site, I noticed a "gaming sites" section, and came here, it looks pretty neat, and since I'm such a huge fan of Pokemon, I decided to come. I've been playing Zelda and Pokemon since the age of 4, which was 7 years ago, because I'm 11 right now. Though, you probably knew I was a fan of Zelda because I'm my signature and avatar, anywho, I read the rules when I registered, and I have been to many other forums before. I hope I make a lot of friends here at PokeDream, I don't really care about post count at all, unless I get to special ones like 1000 and 1337.
So... Hi all...!

Two Dallas health leaders were recognized at TMA Foundation's 19th annual gala, Going Gold for Great Health, on May 18th. These heroes of health exemplify the partnerships needed to "improve the health of all Texans."
Fredye Factor has improved the health of not only those in Dallas, but Texans around the state, through her leadership and service, breaking fund raising goals to ensure life-saving education and services reach the persons who need them most. This has included chairing fundraisers for the Ronald McDonald House, TMA Foundation, Dallas Alzheimer's Association, Baylor Health Care System Neonatal Intensive Unit, Callier Center for Communication Disorders and Project Access of the Dallas County Medical Society. A Dallas native and graduate of Southern Methodist University with a master's degree in counseling psychology, Fredye recently was recognized as Outstanding Volunteer Fundraiser by the Greater Dallas Chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals and was the first recipient of TMAF's Heart of Gold award for extraordinary contributions to improving the health of all Texans.
Sarah Losinger is active in the philanthropic community, having served on the boards of the Baylor Foundation and TMA Foundation. She currently serves as chairman of both The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center's Friends of the Alzheimer's Disease Center and the McCune Charitable Foundation in Santa Fe. Sarah also serves on the boards of the Dallas Municipal Library, Senior Source and Bridge Dallas, and is an active volunteer for Crystal Charity. An Oklahoma native, Sarah has a degree in special education from The University of Oklahoma and has taught the W.H.O. anti-victimization program in the Dallas Independent School District for more than twenty years.
Fredye and Sarah, long-time friends, chaired the Baylor Health Care Foundation breast cancer luncheon in October 2011 which raised $2.2 million including $650,000 for "The Gift of Life" fund to aid low-income minority and immigrant women with breast cancer. Together they also served as co-chairs for the Project Access annual fundraiser, an initiative of the Dallas County Medical Society.
Fredye and Sarah were recognized for their amazing achievements at TMA Foundation's annual gala, Going Gold for Great Health, which celebrated TMAF's continued success in supporting TMA initiatives that improve the health of all Texans.

Ubiquitinating enzymes (UBEs) catalyze protein ubiquitination, a reversible process countered by deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) action (1,2). Five DUB subfamilies are recognized, including the USP, UCH, OTU, MJD, and JAMM enzymes. USP10 possesses amino acid sequences that match the consensus cysteine and histidine boxes representative of the USP family of deubiquitinating enzymes. At the posttranslational level, USP10 appears to be regulated through both protein-protein interactions and phosphorylation. Indeed, interaction of USP10 with Ras-GAP SH3 domain binding protein (G3BP) has been found to inhibit its ability to catalyze the disassembly of ubiquitin chains (3). Furthermore, ATM-mediated phosphorylation of USP10 at Thr42 and Ser337 was shown to promote USP10 stabilization and redistribution from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, where it functions in p53 deubiquitination, stabilization, and activation in response to genotoxic stress (4). Recently, it was shown that USP10 works in concert with USP13 and Vps34 complexes. USP10, along with USP13, appears to deubiquitinate Vps34 complexes to regulate the levels of this class III PI3K. Beclin-1, another component of these complexes, functions to regulate the stability of USP13, which can deubiquitinate and stabilize the levels of USP10. Therefore, Beclin-1, can indirectly regulate p53 stability by controlling the DUB activity of USP10 (5). USP10 also functions in the endosomal compartment, where it has been shown to deubiquitinate CFTR in order to enhance its endocytic recycling and cell surface expression (6,7).

Question as stated in the title: how to install the GlassFish Server Adapter on Eclipse Helios 3.6?
Eclipse Helios 3.6
At the time of writing this (07/26/2010), there are in theory two ways to install the GlassFish Server adapter: via the Eclipse Marketplace or via an update site.
Update: As mentioned by Thorbjørn in a comment, the adapter is now (09/24/2010) available in the Additional server adapters dialogue (the "normal way").
New Server
There are several ways to do this but one ways is to right-click in the Server view, select New > Server then click the Download additional server adapters link and select the GlassFish adapter.
Go to Help > Eclipse Marketplace... and search for "glassfish". Then click on the Install button of the GlassFish Java EE Application Server Plugin for Eclipse and follow the steps.
Update site
Go to Help > Install New Software, Add the following temporary1 update site: http://download.java.net/glassfish/eclipse/helios. Be sure to uncheck Group items by category and you should see the Oracle GlassFish Server Tools as shown below:
Click on Next and follow the steps.
1 The GlassFish plugin is being moved to the Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse (OEPE) and will be available at http://download.oracle.com/otn_software/oepe/helios/wtp in the future (see Bug 312912).
The above approaches seem to work for some users but didn't for me. On my GNU/Linux platform, I'm facing the problem mentioned in this comment of Eclipse 3.6 (Helios) & GlassFish: the install procedure ends successfully, the plugin is seen as installed, but I don't get any GlassFish entry in the Preferences menu and GlassFish doesn't appear in the list of server runtime. So for now, I'm sticking with Eclipse 3.5.
The problem mentioned above is actually not specific to the GlassFish plugin and is not platform specific. The issue is a p2 bug in Eclipse 3.6 when using a shared install (which is the root cause of the problem) as I discovered after reading this other question on SO and the Bug 322929. The problem is related to a p2 bug which is fixed in Eclipse 3.6 SR1 and after installing Eclipse 3.6 SR1 RC4, things are now indeed working as expected. Yeah!
Eclipse Helios 3.6 M6
With the Eclipse 3.6 M6 Java EE bundle, if you try to install the GlassFish v3 server adapter via the New Server dialog and then click on the Download Additional server adapters, Eclipse contacts remote sites but fail at showing any adapter:
This issue is actually captured by Bug 305636. Using the Update Site instead of the New Server Wizard allows to workaround the issue:
I get the following when I try this:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found. Software being installed: GlassFish Java EE 5, Java EE 6 1.0.54 (com.sun.enterprise.jst.server.sunappsrv.feature.feature.group 1.0.54) Missing requirement: GlassFish Java EE 5, Java EE 6 1.0.54 (com.sun.enterprise.jst.server.sunappsrv.feature.feature.group 1.0.54) requires 'org.eclipse.platform.feature.group [3.5.0,3.6.0)' but it could not be found
Eclipse Helios already have the correct source to download the glassfish plugin but, the site is not available yet. The site will be available at the end of july according to this https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=312912
You can use a development update site to install a rc version of the glassfish plugin for helios witch is:
Add this to your update sites and then uncheck the option "Group items by category" and you will see and be able to install the Glassfish Plugin in Helios
The above URL did not work for me (I am using final release of Helios).
I had to do
On the new Eclipse (JUNO):
Help --> Install New Software...
Then, insert

Andrew Kimrey added a 24-yard field goal at the end of the quarter to give Baker a 10-0 advantage.
Peru State made some noise on the ensuing kickoff as Garrett Campbell stretched the field on an 88-yard return.
Baker didn't flinch.
From that point forward the Wildcats outscored the Bobcats 45-6 and took a 34-6 lead into the locker room at halftime.
John Babb led the Wildcats on the ground with 129 yards on 11 carries and Jake Morse added 183 yards in the air with three touchdowns.
The Baker defense held the Bobcats to negative 59 yards of rushing on 18 attempts. PSU's quarterback Tyler Francis finished with 168 yards, one TD and two interceptions.
"Getting off to a 2-0 start is huge for us," said head coach Mike Grossner. "I think we're a young, but experienced team. We've got our first road test next weekend when we travel to Evangel University."
Kickoff is slated for 6 p.m. on Sept. 10 in Springfield, Mo.

According to ESRB, this game contains: Mild Violence
Parents will appreciate Super Monkey Ball for its universal appeal to both male and female gamers and for its multiplayer options so that players won't have to wait long in-between turns.
Nintendo GameCube owners are the only ones who can play this GameCube exclusive game.
Fans of arcade games will enjoy the similarities between Super Monkey Ball and Ataris classic Marble Madness.
Finally, fans of minigame-based gameplay (like Mario Party) should give Super Monkey Ball a look as its minigames are uniquely playable and some must be unlocked via the main game, adding to the games overall replay value.
