At the Dakota Discovery Museum, the story of the settlement of the prairies is told from pre-settlement through the Dust Bowl era of the 1930s. Here, you can learn about the American Indian cultures that dominated the Plains before white settlers arrived. Among the exhibits that help tell the Indian story are a tipi and numerous authentic Indian garments and artifacts.
Settlers brought crops and cattle to the Plains, and that story is told with the aid of vintage farm and ranch equipment, including an impressive sheep wagon, which sheepherders lived in under the wide prairie skies.
Beyond the exhibits inside the museum, theres also an outdoor campus with real-life structures and equipment. The house of Louis Beckwith, one of the late-1800s founders of the Corn Palace, is preserved and restored here. Visitors can walk through the house and be transported back in time, imagining a turn-of-the-20th-century home come to life.
At the completion of a visit to the museum, a great shopping opportunity is available in the museums gift store, where South Dakota-themed books, artwork, jewelry and other items are offered for sale.

IBM Announces Breakthrough with Combination of Security Intelligence and Big Data

IBM Announces Breakthrough with Combination of Security Intelligence and Big Data
Advanced attacks, widespread fraud and the pervasive use of social media, mobile and cloud computing are drastically altering the security landscape. As organizations increasingly need to manage Big Data, the way that corporate data needs to be protected is rapidly changing.
To aid in the detection of stealthy threats that can hide in the increasing mounds of data, IBM recently announced IBM Security Intelligence with Big Data, combining leading security intelligence with big data analytics capabilities for both external cyber security threats and internal risk detection and prevention. IBM Security Intelligence with Big Data provides a comprehensive approach that allows security analysts to extend their analysis well beyond typical security data and to hunt for malicious cyber activity.
This new solution combines real-time correlation for continuous insight, custom analytics across massive structured data (such as security device alerts, operating system logs, DNS transactions and network flows) and unstructured data (such as emails, social media content, full packet information and business transactions), and forensic capabilities for evidence gathering. The combination helps organizations address the most vexing security challenges, including advanced persistent threats, fraud and insider threats.
IBM to Acquire Star Analytics, Inc

IBM to Acquire Star Analytics, Inc
IBM recently announced a definitive agreement to acquire the software portfolio of Star Analytics Inc., a privately held business analytics company headquartered in Redwood City, California. Financial terms were not disclosed.
The combination of IBM and Star Analytics software will further advance IBM's business analytics initiatives, allowing organizations to gain faster access and real-time insight into specialized data sources. With growing challenges in gaining a more complete view into varying types of data, companies are increasingly looking for ways to automate and provide business users with self-service access to critical information.
Star Analytics software addresses a rising challenge for organizations -- helping to automatically integrate essential information, reporting applications and business intelligence tools across their enterprises, on premise or from cloud computing environments. The software removes typical custom coding for specialized sources that is hard to maintain. It also eliminates manual processes that are cumbersome and time consuming.
IBM Simplifies Big Data and Cloud Computing Adoption with New PureSystems Offerings

IBM Simplifies Big Data and Cloud Computing Adoption with New PureSystems Offerings
New Technologies Enable Organizations Such as the New York Stock Exchange and the Nielsen Company to Manage and Analyze Enormous Volumes of Data
Making it easier for organizations to quickly adopt and deploy big data and cloud computing solutions, IBM recently announced major advances to its PureSystems family of expert integrated systems.
Now, organizations challenged by limited IT skills and resources can quickly comb through massive volumes of data and uncover critical trends that can dramatically impact their business. The new PureSystems models also help to remove the complexity of developing cloud-based services by making it easier to provision, deploy and manage a secure cloud environment. Together, these moves by IBM further extend its leadership in big data and next generation computing environments such as cloud computing, while opening up new opportunities within growth markets and with organizations such as managed service providers (MSPs).
Across all industries and geographies, organizations of various sizes are being challenged to find simpler and faster ways to analyze massive amounts of data and better meet client needs. According to IDC, the market for big data technology and services will reach $16.9 billion by 2015, up from $3.2 billion in 2010.1 At the same time, an IBM study found that almost three-fourths of leaders surveyed indicated their companies had piloted, adopted or substantially implemented cloud in their organizations – and 90 percent expect to have done so in three years.2 While the demand is high, many organizations do not have the resources or skills to embrace it.
These news includes PureData System for Analytics to capitalize on big data opportunities; a smaller PureApplication System to accelerate cloud deployments for a broader range of organizations; PureApplication System on POWER7+ to ease management of transaction and analytics applications in the cloud; additional options for MSPs across the PureSystems family including flexible financing options and specific MSP Editions to support new services models; and SmartCloud Desktop Infrastructure to ease management of virtual desktop solutions.
IBM Completes Acquisition Of StoredIQ

IBM Completes Acquisition Of StoredIQ
IBM recently announced it has completed the acquisition of StoredIQ, a privately held company based in Austin, Texas.
The acquisition advances IBM's efforts to help clients derive value from big data, respond more efficiently to litigation and regulations, and dispose of information in an automated way that has outlived its purpose.
IBM estimates that 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are created every day -- so much that 90 percent of the data in the world today has been created in the last two years alone. As a result, chief information officers (CIOs) and general counsels (GCs) are overwhelmed by volumes of information that exceed their tax IT budgets and their capacity to meet legal requirements. Storing old, unnecessary data adds storage and infrastructure costs and compromises companies' ability to effectively comply with legal obligations.
Adding StoredIQ to IBM's big data offerings gives organizations tools for more effective governance of the vast majority of information, including its timely disposal to eliminate unnecessary data that consumes infrastructure and elevates risk. The addition of StoredIQ builds on IBM's prior acquisitions of PSS Systems and Vivisimo as well as organic solutions that improve information economics including value-based archiving, records and retention management, ediscovery management, and disposal and data governance.

IBM Unveils the Most Comprehensive Mobile Portfolio for Global Businesses: IBM MobileFirst
IBM recently unveiled IBM MobileFirst, the most comprehensive mobile portfolio that combines security, analytics and app development software, with cloud-based services and deep mobile expertise. Using IBM MobileFirst solutions, businesses can now streamline everything from the management of employee mobile devices, to the creation of a new mobile commerce app that will transform their entire business model.
This move by IBM builds off of its experience helping nearly 1,000 customers become mobile enterprises, and takes advantage of its thousands of mobile experts and 270 patents in wireless innovations. Additionally, IBM has made 10 mobile-related acquisitions in the past four years alone.
IBM is also announcing an expanded relationship with AT&T to provide developers with tools to create faster, richer mobile apps and services for customers. For instance, organizations can now quickly incorporate payment and messages into their apps.
"To date, mobile computing has been dominated by discussions of new smartphones, operating systems, games and apps," said Robert LeBlanc, senior vice president, middleware software, IBM. "But enterprises have yet to tap into the potential of mobile business. Just as the Internet transformed the way we bank, book vacations and manage our healthcare, mobile computing is also transforming industries. As these devices become ingrained in everything that we do, businesses are now in the palms of their customers' hands. IBM MobileFirst is designed to make the transformation to becoming a mobile enterprise a reality."

UN Company launches retractable lens cap for Olympus XZ-1
Japanese accessory maker U.N has announced a retractable lens cap for the Olympus XZ-1. Using a design similar to Ricoh's LC-2, the U.N unit features a custom-machined mounting ring that uses Allen bolts to secure it to the front of the camera. The company describes the unit as craftsman-made but a spokesman said they believed they could make enough for customers outside Japan. These can be bought direct from the company using PayPal, at a cost of ¥7350 (around $90), including shipping. (From DC.Watch)

text: British death/grind band TRIGGER THE BLOODSHED has entered the studio to begin recording its third album for a tentative late spring/early summer release. According to the group, "So far, drums and guitars have been completely finished and are sounding the tits!" The CD will be mixed and mastered by Danish producer Jacob Hansen, who has previously worked with RAUNCHY, HEAVEN SHALL BURN, NEAERA, MAROON, VOLBEAT, ABORTED, THE ARCANE ORDER and HATESPHERE, among others.TRIGGER THE BLOODSHED last year parted ways with drummer Max Blunos and replaced him with Dan Wilding (ABORTED). "The Great Depression", the second album from TRIGGER THE BLOODSHED, was released on April 14, 2009 via Metal Blade Records. The CD was self-produced by TRIGGER THE BLOODSHED at Red House Farm and Cherry Wood studios, was mixed by Karl Groom at Thin Ice Studios, and was mastered by Dave at The Digital Audio Company. Formed in late 2006 in Bath England by Rob Purnell and Martyn Evans, TRIGGER THE BLOODSHED has been creating some of the most extreme music in death metal, forging the new with the old school. Their blistering blast filled death metal is a devastating aural assault earning them the title of the U.K.'s heaviest band.

I've received cards from Virginia, Tennessee, Missouri, and Indiana.

...from Grandma...
...and more cousins...

Friday Fashion Flashback ~ Baby's Christmas
Friday, December 16, 2011 | Labels: Friday Fashion Flashback, LoveLoss | 2 comments
Look at how I'm smiling up at my Daddy. I look pretty fond of him. He looks pretty fond of me, too. I think it was love at first sight for both of us. This is my first Christmas. Just a wee little thing! I'm wearing a white onesie, knee-high white socks, and cute little w hite shoes. Those socks are something else, huh? I've never seen infants wear socks like that. There must be a story.
But better than my outfit, is my Dad's. He's wearing a traditional white button-down shirt, black slacks, and a skinny blue tie. I distinctly remember shopping with my Dad less than a month ago and he was commenting on how skinny the ties were these days. Uh, hello Dad, they aren't THAT skinny! My Dad has always been a fashionable dresser. I think I get my love for fashion, in part, from him. I definitely get my shopping style from him: buy quality, buy less often. We tend to buy quality clothing and rarely get rid of things. I purchased a camel hair coat when I was a Freshman in highschool. I still wear it. It is classic.

|The process of creating one of these beautiful textiles begins with design
|Judith's design room, where a lot of the magic happens
|Once the design is made, yarn is chosen
|This room is filled with yarn shipments for various orders to be filled. Many orders come from hotels and retailers.
|Once the yarn is chosen, it is prepared for weaving
|The yarn may be woven by automated looms
|This loom is weaving the yarn on its own, occasionally someone checks to make sure it is doing okay.
|Or the yarn may be woven by hand, as this woman is doing
|Once woven, they are packaged for shipping
|Or they are sold at the warehouse
|I wonder who is going to get a lovely textile for Christmas? Could it be you?! :)

Who will be at the top of the standings when the Big 12 regular season is done.
I'm going with Texas. Lot's of talent.
I think Texas has a real shot. I like OU as well but the south is so tough I could see a Kansas team that wins 12 games win the championship as well.
I think Baylor has a good shot as well.

I agree, Baylor will be very solid, but I'm not sure they have the big guys to defend/rebound with the elite teams.
Will the south beat up on each other enough for a young Kansas team to rise to the top? As much as I hate to say it, I think it is a real possibility.
Originally Posted by mjones34

I like Baylor, but I can't understand why they can't get the big guys the level of their guards.
At the moment, I'd stick with Texas, but Oklahoma might surprise.
wow. is it just me or does this list look extremely weak this year?
I voted Texas but I get the feeling they may find a way to blow it
Oh we will fight, fight, fight for Iowa State,
and may her colors ever fly!!!
In Accordance with Prophecy
Big 12 is really weak right now. Might be a good year for us to bounce back.
Wow, 5 homer picks already... Seriously, I'll just be happy if we don't finish in the bottom 3 this year.
Go Cubs Go!
Iowa State all the way!
Go Sssssssssyclones!

The conference looks to be very down this year.... it is a shame we aren't another year or two along in our rebuilding process, because with the conference as it is, and our very soft non-conference schedule, this year could be wide open to taking a big step forward.
Kansas bballers - they know how to work the refs and NCAA officials better.

Monday, this week I had the day off and made some minor tweaks to the fit on my bike. Gary Fisher marlin/discs and took it out for a quick ride.
I liked the fit so much that it somehow turned into a 40 mile road ride in 95 degree heat.... the most ive ever done on the road in 1 shot was like 15 and just cruising around taking my time.
I hit dehydration at the end.. stopped sweating, and then got chills. at that point i pulled the plug and sat in the shade of a tree for a good 15 min and just cooled the F down. was out of water so babied it to a convinent mart thing and got some water, refueled and finished the trip.. exhausted and tired and beaten.
The next day i was sore all over hard to lift anything Ie my arm lol >< well its day 2 now and im still feeling completely drained, no power what so ever.
is there a way to counter this i feel like death effect after a super hard ride?

Could Emily Maynard And Jef Holm Be Hiding A Crumbling Relationship?
August 27, 2012 02:00 PM by Lisa Princ
The Bachelorette nation was shaken up last week, when rumors surfaced claiming Emily Maynard cheated on Jef Holm, but Jef was quick to dismiss them. But, is there really trouble in paradise for the popular pair?
The Bachelorette's Emily Maynard and Jef Holm claimed that last week's "cheating scandal" was nothing but nonsense caused by Jef's brother, Mike, who happens to be a known troublemaker in his family. Now however, more sources have emerged revealing that couple could possibly be facing relationship issues already!
A source who claims to have the inside scoop, spoke to Wet Paint recently, and revealed that the pair are showing signs of trouble: "Jef has been complaining that they have nothing in common. He's been telling people, 'I know she has a kid and everything, but she never wants to go out.'"
And the source adds that Emily has similar feelings of frustration: "She says Jef doesn't like to do anything. She says she thinks he's boring." The source also claims that they overheard Emily tell Jef that she made him famous.
So, why would Emily Maynard and Jef Holm deny all the cheating and relationship issue rumors? The source explained: "Right now, I think they're in denial mode because they're embarrassed. But I don't know if they'll be able to recover from this."
Wow, what do you think of all this gossip surrounding our beloved Em and Jef? What do you think of the cheating rumor? Could there be any truth to it? We're not so sure any of the sources are being truthful! Comment and share your thoughts with us below!

Hey guys,
i have having a bit of trouble with my computer science homework and i was hoping someone here would be able to help me. i had 25 question and i did fine with the rest but just have a bit of trouble these three, so will really appreciate if someone can help me.
What are the difference(s) and similarities between RAM, DRAM and DIMM?
If SRAM was used in the main memory of a computer, would it be faster? if yes than why isn't it normally used?
If you load a large file from a hard disk it may take 20 seconds to open in your WordProcessor. You then close it and then 10 minutes later you go to your hard disk to open it again. What happens and why?

Return Of The Jedi Finally Getting A Sequel, But Not The Sequel You Want
By Josh Tyler 6 years ago comments
A few weeks ago Seth Green and others announced that theyre working on an animated, Star Wars comedy series for Lucasfilm. Details, other than that itll be a comedy, have been sparse. But today IGN uncovered a couple of clues which indicate that it may actually be a sequel to Return of the Jedi. Unfortunately I dont think its the sequel weve always wanted.
During a Q&A session, Lucasfilm Director of Fan Relations Steve Sansweet received this comment from a fan: I would really love to see new adventures after Jedi with our favorite characters Luke, Han and Leia. His response? And you will, in the new animation. So it looks like Han, Leia, Chewie, Luke, and everyone else are returning, which has to mean the new show is set after Return of the Jedi. The only thing is the show will be in the same format used by the Clone Wars cartoons and if it's the show being worked on by Seth Green that he's talking about, it'll be a comedy.
Ive been waiting my entire life for a Return of the Jedi sequel and instead I got the prequels and now Lucas is mocking me by actually delivering a sequel and turning into some sort of wacky, cartoon comedy. Anyone else feel like theyre being Jar Jard?
As if to rub salt in the wound, Best Of Luck Productions offers this further revelation, reported from other comments made by Sansweet: there was one ominous thing he said though... not everyone who dies in sci-fi stays dead. He continued by stating we'll see what he means in 3 to 4 years. Does this mean more Anakin? Noooooooo!

I thought I'd add my bike to the jubilee clip club:
As you can see, only one clip. Time will tell how well it will hold up, but so far, rock solid. I've tested it with some heavy groceries over pot-holed streets, and all seems well.
If this works well, I will likely do the same thing to my upcoming cargo bike as well... Very handy if you already have invested in Brompton luggage.
PS. Sorry about the funky rotation, uploader doesn't like vertical iphone pics, apparently.

Wow! What fun!
I took my maiden off-road voyage on my Peugeot today. The weather was perfect: 72 degrees. No wind. Sunny skies. When trying to figure out where to go, a quick internet search brought Florida Canyon to mind. I don't know why I never thought of it - it's only 2 miles from home. This is an off-road series of trails that is very typical of Southern California desert terrain. There are few trees and no shade, not a problem this time of year.
There are lots of little trails going this way and that, so it makes for a perfect place to practice my very beginner MTB skills. The trails consist of very hard packed dirt, and many of them have millions of small rocks, loose and not loose. There is some sand every once in a while.
Here's what I learned:
It's a lot harder than it looks!
I have to really concentrate to (hopefully) find the best part of the path. I can see how you can really clear your mind on the trail, because I had to keep focused on what I was doing, and couldn't really think about the usual clutter in my brain.
Harder doesn't mean less fun!
I did feel like a kid again (with the occasional moment of terror and flash about whether my insurance would cover a nasty fall!). It was a blast, especially on the switchbacks and little ups and downs. The path ahead wasn't always very clear around a corner because of the vegetation.
My hands were a little sore from time to time...
I had to grip the bars pretty hard to maintain my balance. Not a big issue, but way different from the smooth, silky ride on Ruby Roubaix.
I have to have a talk with my Bike Butler
He forgot to pack the water bottle. The trail was dusty and I got plenty thirsty.
The bike done good.
For a twenty-something bike, it handled well, I didn't flat (thank God!) and it was so much fun riding over all those bumps and rocks and such. It's such a different mind-set from trying to avoid potholes and road trash. On this bike, you just plough through the rocks and it keeps on taking it.
I'll need a neckerchief in the summer.
Hardly any bugs today, but in the summer they're going to be out in droves. Or whatever they are out in. I'll need some protection over my mouth or I'm going to be eating a LOT of bugs.
This spot is perfect for training.
It's so close to home, I can ride out the front door, take a couple of miles on the street, and be there. There's enough choices in trails that variety is easy. I do wish there were some trees for shade, however!
So here's some pics:
A typical shot of the trails:
A fork in the trail. Which way did I go?
One of the easy sections:
And last, but not least. Florida Canyon is adjacent to the San Diego Velodrome. After my ride I paused to check out how the big boys do it. This is a tiny crop that I shot into the sun, without a viewfinder, just before my camera's battery failed. Ain't the best shot, but it will have to do!

May 28, 2016
LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- The Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development has established a quarantine to protect the state's nearly 14 million fir trees from an invasive insect.
The quarantine announced Monday generally prohibits shipment of fir nursery stock and fir timber products into Michigan from states infested with balsam woolly adelgid.
Michigan says certain low-risk fir products are exempt, including Christmas trees and wreaths and heat-treated timber products.
The quarantine also allows fir seedlings grown under an active pest management program to be shipped into Michigan.
The balsam woolly adelgid feeds on sap and weakens trees, eventually killing them.
It arrived in the U.S. from Europe in the early 1900s and is blamed for millions of fir tree deaths in North America, harming the timber and Christmas tree industries.

I received a bike bag and computer today. Those are the last two pieces for my new bike. Now all I need is the frame kit and associated bits. That should come in a week or so. I've got the wheels built but no tubes or tires. I've got hydraulic brakes, hose and fittings, but nothing to fit them onto. Likewise I've got an LX crankset, XTR derailleurs and XT shifters.
I was thinking I may want to kiss the delivery person when the last big box arrives. If that's the case, I should probably specify FedEx delivery because my FedEx delivery person is seriously hot and my UPS man is not.

I might not have been clear on two points. Under the terms we agreed to I was not seeking to be repaid if he had fulfilled his part of the bargain. Since he did not fulfill his part of the bargain I feel that he should have to return the initial investment I made on his behalf. I spent a great more than what I'm asking but I am only asking for the tangible items such as airline tickets, clothing, etc. Also if I decided (probably not smartly) to notify the neighbors they are living next to a sociopath and sent flyers, and he wanted to come after me would he have to do so in California where i live and sent the flyers from or in PA, where they were delivered. could he pursue any criminal charges against me for notifying neighbors of his behavior. Thank you. This guy really screwed me over. This is just the tip of the iceberg as it was told to me by multiple people that he intentionally set out to take advantage of me.. I found that he has a history of doing this which is why I thought of sending pamphlets. Nobody every holds him accountable because it's to much trouble.
Thank you, XXXXX XXXXX other question. Good advice about the flyers but once this part is over and If I decide to send the flyers, would he have to sue me in California where I live and sent them from, or from PA where the flyers were sent to and where he lives. That would be my final question. He has no ability to come to California unless I bought him another ticket which isn't going to happen. Thanks.
Thank you so much, I've never in my 50 years of life ever been pushed to the point to have to take such action but I set out to help this guy out with the best of intentions and he just screwed me over on every level. I appreciate your time.

Healthnotes Newswire —According to a clinical trial published in this week's Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), ipriflavone supplementation failed to prevent bone loss in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis who took the product for three years.1 Ipriflavone is a synthetic isoflavone, derived from the soy compound daidzien.
The trial enrolled 474 women from Belgium, Denmark, and Italy, who were diagnosed with osteoporosis. Their ages ranged from 45 to 75 years. Once enrolled, each participant was randomly given either 200 mg of ipriflavone or a placebo three times per day. All participants also took 500 mg of calcium per day during the trial.
At the end of the three-year trial, the researchers determined that bone loss, measured in the lumbar spine, was the same in both groups. Not only did ipriflavone fail to slow bone loss, but it also did not produce a decrease in chemical markers used to measure bone loss.
To compound matters, the researchers report that 29 of the 132 women (22%) in the ipriflavone group completing the three-year clinical trial developed a clinically significant drop in lymphocytes. These cells, which make up approximately nearly one-third of the white blood cells in the normal adult, are critical components of the immune system and its ability to respond to viral infections. In some of these women, a return to normal levels took almost two years after they had stopped supplementing the ipriflavone.
The researchers conclude that, "… the relative benefit-risk ratio of ipriflavone appears low when compared with the alternative antiosteoporotic drugs available. Its use in treatment is not supported by these data."
Ipriflavone was first synthesized in the 1930s and has been primarily researched in Japan and Europe. The product is sold in the United States as a dietary supplement, with a typical recommendation of 200 mg three times per day.
The results of this new clinical trial veer dramatically from the promising results seen in several earlier clinical trials with either osteoporotic women2 3 4 5 or those at risk for osteoporosis.6 These trials have found that 200 mg of ipriflavone three times per day paired with 800–1,000 mg of calcium per day prevented bone loss and, in some cases, actually increased bone density and reduced vertebral fractures.
However, none of these trials was greater than two years in length. As noted by the researchers of the new trial, the women enrolled in their study were somewhat older than women in earlier trials, suggesting that ipriflavone may be more likely to work in younger postmenopausal women with early signs of bone loss.
The red flag in the current trial is the significant drop in lymphocyte levels measured in almost 22% of the women taking ipriflavone. Although this finding has been reported in one other smaller clinical trial,7 it suggests that women choosing to take ipriflavone should have their lymphocytes measured regularly by their doctor.
While the results of the current trial do not bode well for the future of ipriflavone in the treatment of osteoporosis, there continues to be a need for safe and effective approaches to the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Despite the endorsement of the authors of this study for drugs to treat and prevent osteoporosis, the fact remains that most of these have very unpleasant side effects that negatively affect the quality of life of the many women taking them.8 9 10 11References

A triple layer of crumbly crust, a truffle-like interior, and an almost patent-leather-shiny glaze make this tart the chicest take on chocolate we've come across in a long time.
Leave a Review
I have made this tart many times. It lends itself to flavor variations, such as pitstachio or coconut in the crust, or caramel glaze on top. But, my favorite, it to make the crust out of "pretzel crunch" from Epicuriuos. It's seriously addictive.
So good and so easy. I will make it many more times. I expect to add a few ounces of Frangelico or Gran Mariner next time.
Delicious and relatively easy recipe - always a hit with guests. Served with Ina Garten's make ahead whipped cream to lighten it up as it's extremely rich.
Have made this many times to rave reviews. I do substitute simple syrup for the corn syrup (1 cup of sugar dissolved into 1/4 cup of water). I also have used dark chocolate digestive biscuits rather than grahams as I cannot get grahams where I live. It comes out awesome!
I made it for Thanksgiving with semi-sweet chocolate. Everyone enjoyed it. I couldn't imagine that being enough ganache to cover the top, so I doubled the recipe. I was pleased with the amount.
Forgot to rate it -- definitely 4 forks. A keeper! Made this many times, always to raves -- same with many friends to whom I've passed this along. If you like this Paul Grimes recipe -- try his Chicken Marsala, also in Epicurious. Just as wonderful!
Did a test run in advance of Thanksgiving. I used Nabisco Famous Wafers for the crust and Ghiradelli bittersweet chocolate for the filling and glaze. I loved it from the beginning, but thought it was even better on the second day. Next time will serve with fresh whipped cream and raspberry sauce, and will try with semi-sweet chocolate to appeal to the children, who thought the original, bittersweet version, had coffee or liqueur in it.
We really liked this, very rich, so a little goes a long way. Easy to make although I couldn't find chocolate graham crackers so used thin chocolate wafers which worked fine but I would increase to 11/2 C because it was a little thin. Also have some ice cream or whipped cream to have on the side. I will definitely make this again, easier than flour less chocolate cake but as delicious.
Just made this last night. Followed recipe as written. Very rich, not overly sweet. I will definitely make it again.
I just made last night and my family love it so much!!! I'm definitely going to make again. ^^

Family and individual health insurance is probably one of the most complicated and important purchases you'll make. We offer three types of health insurance plans. Each comes with different deductible and premium amounts to help you get coverage that meets your health care needs as well as your budget.
Paired with an eligible health insurance plan, a Health Savings Account (HSA) is a tax-advantaged savings account that allows you to pay for qualified medical expenses tax-free. HSA's increase your health insurance buying power four-fold:
In order to use your Health Savings Account funds tax-free, you must first establish your HSA account before you incur qualified medical expenses.2 Otherwise, the expenses will not qualify for tax purposes.
The IRS determines what medical expenses are qualified for tax purposes. These can change at any time. But generally, services or items purchased to help ease or prevent a physical or mental defect or illness constitute a "qualified" medical expense.2
IRS publication 502 provides a comprehensive list of all current qualified expenses. But, please always consult your tax advisor should you require specific tax advice.
You should know that if you withdraw funds for non-qualified health care costs, they will be taxed at your income tax rate. Plus, you'll incur a 20% tax penalty if you're less than 65 years old.
Copay plans are similar to many employer-provided plans. Each comes with a set copayment for routine health care expenses; then we take care of the rest.
All Copay plans come with a prescription benefit and a wide range of deductibles and copay options to help you meet your health care needs and budget.
You're under age 30.
Lowest premiums of our plans.
Access to the UnitedHealthcare Network and its discounts.
Simple design: Meet your deductible and the plan pays a percentage of covered expenses.
Three in-network primary care doctor office visits (per covered person, per calendar year) for history and exam with a copay.

Welcome to O & N Aircraft—Experienced Professionals
O & N Aircraft Modifications, Inc. was formed by Myron Olson and Richard Newell in 1986. At that time both Olson and Newell were already accomplished veterans of the aircraft modifications business, a highly specialized area of the aircraft industry, where previously manufactured airplanes are upgraded or changed by supplemental type certificate.
Aware of the demand for certain products by small aircraft pilots, Olson and Newell began their venture with the design of auxiliary fuel tanks for Cessna aircraft. Since its inception, the company has received over 25 FAA approvals for its products, with new research and development in progress.
Now in our 27th year of operation, we pride ourselves on continuing to offer you – the aircraft owner – the same high quality and personalized attention that you have come to expect from us.
In its 24 years at Seamans Airport (9N3) in Factoryville, Pennsylvania, The company has continued to grow, operating an FAA Certified Repair Station, Full Service Avionics shop, and engaging in the manufacture of FAA approved products. In 1997 we added an aircraft upholstery shop. Currently we hold dealerships with Cessna, Garmin, S-Tec, AuRACLE, and handle many other product lines.

"We ordered this in blue, the wedding color and were thrilled! They are very simple, yet elegant and so appropriate for an outdoor blue wedding. Nice paper quality. Very happy."
"These perfectly fit the update we were looking for on the traditional black and white invitation. Wedding Paper Divas did a great job editing the wording to reflect my husband's late parents, and customizing the back. We tied them together with Tartan plaid ribbons to add a little extra holiday pop for our December wedding. We received so many compliments and couldn't have been happier!"
"I was not going to order from wedding paper divas because it was a little more expensive than other sites. But I kept coming back to this design. It matched our wedding theme and colors perfectly and it was so stunning. I paid extra for the rounded corners, which was worth it because it made the invitation look so classy. I love love love this suite. I'm beyond impressed, this was well worth the money. My order even arrived early! I would definitely recommend wedding paper divas to anyone getting married."
"This card stood out immediately. Very pretty design, lots of space for text. Didn't like the original paper finish so we ordered it in the shimmery option which was beautiful. The delivery was so quick and the text personalization was exactly what we expected; the designer did exactly what we asked for and made sure everything was symmetrical and balanced when our changes were incorporated. We are very impressed with the quality of the invitation, the promptness of the delivery and the amazing customer service. Thank you!"
"We have two wedding dates and wanted one invitation for both, and the folks at weddingpaperdivas were so helpful in the design process. They made the finished product look lovely, and really represent us as a couple. The colors are great, the print quality is perfect, and they matched up the fonts and sizing so that it all looked wonderful. We received so many compliments on our invitations, and you will too! :)"

- Release Date: December 19, 1971
- Director: Stanley Kubrick
- Main Actors: Malcolm McDowell, Patrick Magee, Godfrey Quigley
Alex is just an average, ordinary teenager living in the not-so-distant-future London. He and his slang-happy band of "droogs" spend their days indulging in Alex's pleasures: murder, rape, drug-laced milk, and Beethoven. However, when Alex is caught and given an experimental form of therapy designed to quell his basest impulses, Alex finds himself defenseless against his enemies -- and there are a lot of them. While there is plenty of nudity and violence, it is not always designed to be appealing to the viewer -- rather, it's about what happens when we let our instincts run wild. Sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's horrifying, but it's always entertaining.
A Clockwork Orange scored very well with most critics and earned a Best Picture and Best Director nomination at the Academy Awards. Stanley Kubrick withdrew the film from release in England soon after it was released when it was deemed too violent and scores of young people imitated what they had seen in the movie. A Clockwork Orange was made available again in the UK only after Kubrick passed away. Malcolm McDowell's performance cemented his status as one of the most exciting young actors at the time after starring in Lindsay Anderson's If… In the U.S., it became something of a cult classic; and every Halloween you can be sure to see people dressed up like Alex. In 1998, the AFI placed it as the 46th best American film of all-time.
Part of the appeal of A Clockwork Orange is that you can tell people that you've seen it, as many of its phrases and quotes have become part of an underground lexicon. There is a copious amount of nudity, violence and blood, and while some of it is vibrant, a lot of it is just plain disturbing. However, most of all, this is a film about men and the terrible things that we are capable of. There are no major female characters to speak of and our focus is completely on the supposed "rehabilitation" of one young man's natural desires. It is about the need to quiet our own demons and about the danger of what can happen when you take away someone's humanity. So invite your buddy that loves cult flicks over, get out a bottle of cold milk and be prepared to breathe deeply.

I can't believe that I'm actually asking the question. I don't recall ever actually dropping anyone...
Here's the situation: I commute daily but am what I consider to be uber-slow at an average of about 13 mph. My husband is far faster than I, but diabetic thus needs the exercise, but can only ride on the weekends. We have a friend, husband of friend to be exact, that likes to ride with us. The trouble is, the slower we go so that he can keep up, the slower he goes. If we let him set the pace, we'll go about 7mph.
My frustration with this is... when I'm riding with someone faster than me, I keep "pedal to the metal" at all times. I push myself harder so that I don't slow down the other riders. This friend of ours doesn't do that--he does, in fact, the opposite!
After repeated discussions with them about the importance of exercise for type two diabetics, we gave up and dropped them on the last ride (new years day). Now we haven't heard from them since and they stopped showing up for the LBS ride on Saturdays too.
I keep telling myself that we did the right thing. My question for input of more experienced riders: what do y'all do? Do you drop your friends?

Just a Principal Question.
My Zimbra Testservers stand behind a Firewall /Private IP
Using Portforwarding /Translation and SplitDNS Setup for the Primary Domain
So far so good.
My Question is if i add Additional Domains and / or Virtual Hosts to these Domains do i have to setup in the Splitdns as Well or is the Public DNS fine enough?
So to be clear - this would be my wish:
primary Domain - internal dns - public dns
virtualhost for primary - public dns
second domain - public dns
virtualhost for second - public
do i have to setup internal dns (splitting) for those additional hostnames and domains now as well ?
i really do not hope that :-)

As y'all know, I'm pretty much incapable of passing up a snarka-tunity when it comes to hypocritical Republican politicians who can't keep it in their pants. This week, Newsweek gift-wrapped the snarka-tunity and placed it right in my mailbox.
The latest issue features a review of Ayn Rand and the World She Made, Anne Heller's new biography of Ayn Rand, a writer who I would happily trade in the first round of the Gender Draft. For those of you unfamiliar with Rand and the Objectivist philosophy she spawned, it's explained here. Objectivism, IMO, can best be summed up as "You don't have to give a rat's ass about anyone else." This applies equally to the economy (unfettered capitalism FTW!) and one's personal life (as long as you're happy, it doesn't matter who you fuck over). Needless to say, it's extremely popular among rich white dudes, since it rationalizes and blesses what they've been doing for centuries already.
But what makes this review of the Rand biography so very, very special is its author: Governor Mark "Appalachian Trail" Sanford, who pursued his own personal objectives at the expense of his wife, his four kids, and the entire state of South Carolina.
Sanford essentially transforms the book review into a soapbox from which he can spout the usual right-wing claptrap about how the government shouldn't really be doing anything for anyone, and quotes Howard Roark–the hero of Rand's novel The Fountainhead–to further his argument:
"I do not recognize anyone's right to one minute of my life. Nor to any part of my energy. Nor to any achievement of mine. No matter who makes the claim, how large their number or how great their need … I recognize no obligations toward men except one: to respect their freedom and to take no part in a slave society." Cold though they sound, these words contain two basic truths. First, an individual can achieve great things without governmental benevolence, and second, one man has no right to another's achievement. These are lessons we should all remember today, when each week is seemingly marked by another government program designed to fix society.
The last soap-boxy sentence doesn't really jibe with his "two basic truths", since things like quality public education or affordable health care do not in any way rob the individual of his/her ability to achieve great things or to benefit from them (if anything, they aid achievement).
But political grandstanding aside, the review scores a 10 on the Unintentionally Humorous Subtext scale, with gems like this:
I've grown more critical of Rand's outlook because it doesn't include the human needs we have for grace, love, faith, or any form of social compact.
I bet Mrs. Sanford would agree, given how that social compact between y'all turned out. But let's not end without a thinly veiled shout-out to Christianity:
There is one more major flaw in Rand's thinking. She believed that man is perfectible…and Galt himself, in the 57-page speech near the book's end, explicitly denies the existence of original sin. The idea that man is perfectible has been disproved by 10,000 years of history. Men and women are imperfect, or "fallen"…
Thanks, Governor. Those of us who caught your rambling, Jesus-loving confessional speech about your lost weekend with your Argentine mistress know how you feel about sin and being "fallen."
I wish I had been a fly on the wall in Newsweek's editorial offices when they commissioned and edited this review. The Washington Post Company is hardly Republican-friendly (and probably not Objectivists either), and I can't help but think that their tongues were firmly planted in their cheeks when they published this. I wonder if Sanford noticed.

Tubing System Types
When tubing systems were initially developed, vented ground systems were frequently installed. Today, the use of unvented, aerial systems is considered to be the best alternative. Research shows that unvented, aerial systems will consistantly outperform vented ground systems. This greater efficiency (usually in the range of 40%) is due to the creation of a natural vacuum in the tubing system. This natural vacuum changes the "air pressure" in the tubing system so that the tap hole is actually experiencing "better" sapflow weather even on the poorer days.
Ground system
Notice how the tubing is following the contours of the slope. Because this system follows the ground (contains numerous sags) and because these systems are frequently vented (so they are not air tight), little or no natural vacuum is created.
Aerial System
Notice how the main line (#1) is suspended with a slope and is tight. The encourages a natural vacuum which can increase sap flow especially on the days with poorer weather.

And in the end, they were free.
"We had a unanimous verdict from six-person jury," Liam Wright, one of the so-called "Chase 5," jubilantly reported from the steps of Seattle Municipal Court on Thursday evening, marking the end of the first degree criminal trespass charges that have been pending since Occupy Seattle's November 2 demonstration that forced the closure of Chase Bank branch. The fate of Wright, Danielle Simmons, Sarah Svobodny, Hudson William-Eynon and Michael Stevens was unanimously decided by a six-member jury that deliberated for five and a half hours after three days of testimony.
"We shut down a bank for the entire day," Wright recounted. "People dove under the police van to keep us from going to jail. We chained ourselves together inside. We admitted this and then got a non-guilty verdict. Yeah.
"I am in shock," Simmons said after the verdict was read. "The jury decided that our actions were justified and whether this is because they thought it was somehow lawful or just the right thing to do, something is changing, and I think it's beautiful."
"Every aspect of the action has gone far beyond what was expected," Wright added, including the demonstration in question, when the crowd cheering on the Chase Bank occupiers then marched to a nearby Sheraton Hotel, where JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon was giving a speech. The demonstration cut his speech short.
To obtain a guilty verdict, the prosecution would have had to prove that the defendants were aware that they were trespassing and that this is illegal. The defense went right for the jugular, arguing that Chase essentially has Seattle PD on its payroll because of the bank's parasitic and reciprocal financial relationship to local governments.
"You can't say what is private and public property in this case," Wright said, because JPMorgan Chase received $94.7 billion in bailout funds, the largest given to any bank.
"I made an open appeal to the jury," Wright said. "'People feel that they have no power in society, and I'm sure you can understand this.' Most people feel like they don't have power, and it's true. We wanted to make clear to everyone that we don't want a world defined by banks, we don't want to live under them. We want to be human beings living together, free from the dead weight of financial profiteering."
As he left court, Wright called a mic-check: "Thank you all so much, this is amazing – incomprehensible! We shut down the bank and we got away with it."
JPMorgan Chase currently has $20 billion in foreclosures on its books. The bank had a hand in the worst of the subprime lending excesses, providing financing to the nation's two largest subprime lenders, Countrywide and Ameriquest. This financing provided the companies with the capital they needed to originate subprime mortgages.
"They've been strengthened from this crisis," Wright said, adding that none of the CEOs who caused the financial meltdown has been prosecuted, yet they continue to collude with government officials.
"And here we were, on trial, for trying to put a stop to that," he said.
