Ware, David S. Quartet – "Renunciation " – [Aum Fidelity]
Striking a balance between melodious bop-blues and cacophonous avant-garde (akin to Pharoah Sanders), hard blowing tenor-man Ware is accompanied by his stellar quartet, who at times subtley outshine him, especially the sublime Matthew Shipp on piano. Excellent, also, are longtime quartet member William Parker on contrabass and relative quartet newcomer Guillermo E. Brown on drums. A live recording from 2006, the album is dedicated to jazz greats recently departed from this mortal coil: Alice Coltrane, Dewey Redman, Michael Brecker and (R&B saxophonist) Larry Curtis Potts. Ware enigmatically espouses his Hindu beliefs in the liner notes, no doubt, to the confusion of many.

I purchased GC9 from the App Store but the download still requires a registration key which neither Apple of the developer have sent me![Version 9.0.1]
Purbeckview replied on 17 Dec 2013
OK problem solved! You have to completely unistall any old and/or trial versions. Dragging these to the Trash is not enough (in my case at least). The support files in /private/var and ~/Library need to be deleted as well. This can be achieved by use of sudo in the Terminsl or via a tool such as AppCleaner

It may be free but it's certainly not purr-fect! I will try to import my VMWare machine into VirtualBox via ovftool and see what happens. Merry Christmas :)

I managed to import my VMWare Fusion VM into VirtualBox via ovftool but to no avail. As soon as the Guest Additions are applied and 3D video enabled, all menus disappear from the Desktop environment :( According to the VirtualBox forums, they "are working hard at resolving several difficult issues around this major change in the distros and their upstream providers related to hardware/software 3D rendering." So don't use Ubuntu 12.10 on VirtualBox for the time being.

Hi, I have a conversation-scoped managed bean called pfManager and after a call to a method annotated with @End an action button is actioned (by the user) that redirects me according to this navigation rule:
<rule if-outcome="beginPF"> <begin-conversation pageflow="beginPF" nested="true"/> </rule>
beginPF is a pageflow defined using JPDL, that redirects me to a page "startPF.xhtml" when it starts.
The fact is, that in that page "startPF.xhtml" I can see all my old-data, I mean data from the last pageflow that should end after calling the @End annotated method... al this data comes from the pfManager bean, so I'm suspecting something is wrong with my conversation propagation.
It's been a while since I've spent time in the Seam layer in our app so, I could be way off base here but....
It is my understanding that @End only marks the conversation as no longer a long running conversation and the actual converstation wont end until the end of that request/response operation. (Ah, I just read some doco and this does appear to be true). Take a read of http://docs.jboss.org/seam/2.2.2.Final/reference/en-US/html/annotations.html specifically the @End/@Begin annotations.
You might want to try @End(beforeRedirect=true). This may achieve what you are looking for but, that really depends on what else you are doing in this navigation.
Hope this helps.

I'm not a lister. It's not my thing, but I'm going to kinda sorta do it for six months for a good cause: Sax Zim Bog.
Friends of Sax Zim Bog has set a six month challenge called the Big Half Year to raise money for their current projects. Since they recently purchased a 40 acre Black Spruce/Tamarack bog and the current priority for 2013 is to complete the Sax-Zim Bog Welcome Center on Owl Avenue, they need some funding!
The challenge is that you have to do some form of a "Big Year" for six months: see as many birds as possible, attracting the most birds to your yard, a county big year, a state big year, a bog big year–however you want to do it, do it!
So, I'm going to see how many different species of birds I can digiscope between January 1 – June 30, 2013. (Like the above evening grosbeaks). And you can pledge your support if you feel so inclined. You can either pledge a fixed amount or pledge an amount per bird. I think I estimated that I'll digiscope 250 species…but I have a lot of travel between now and then (Florida, New York, Connecticut, San Francisco, Ohio), so it very easily could exceed that. If you pledge, you may just want to do a fixed amount.
There are prizes for this, but I told the organizers to take my name out of the running, my prize will be that a welcome center is there. But if you have ever visited the bog, you should consider either donating or creating a user profile and doing your own big half year to raise funds (who knows, you might also win a really cool prize).
That said, it's a small birding world and we all know each other. I won't be offended if you choose to pledge for a different Big Half Year participant. Again, the goal here is make Sax Zim easier for birders to navigate and preserve habitat for some pretty spanky species like great gray owls, evening grosbeaks, boreal chickadees and northern hawk owl.
I'm actually fairly curious how many different species I can digiscope in six months…based on how we did with Digiduels and The World Series of Birding.

The most ambitious, elaborate, and expensive of the Mario Batali group of restaurants, Del Posto offers superb food, wine, and service, but there's no question that the room's size and formality are more than a little intimidating. It looks, and feels, like nothing so much as the main dining room of a vintage ocean liner. Eating at the bar is the way to go here.
Del Posto is amazing; lamb and sweetbreads were a must order; they also have exceptional wine service!
Amaze amaze amaze! – My bf took me here for my birthday. Everything was PERFECT. The decor is chic. Every one of the people on the floor can answer any question about any menu item. So impressive.
We had the rib eye for two and there are just no words to describe how fantastic this place is. 100% delightful!
Worth it! – Del Posto is a great place to dine with. The staffs were well organized and very attentive to details. Their service was over the top.
Their food was very satisfying and very delicious. Really had a good taste of food and the price is very much worth it.
Lovely! – The Best restaurant experience we have had! We went for my husbands birthday - wonderful atmosphere, service, food and wine! Will return!
Batali's comments are insensitive and hurtful – I can't believe Batali is comparing bankers to Hitler and Stalin. Agree with the previous post that it is completely insensitive. Why can't he just stick to making food? I can only assume that if he is busy attending conferences and media events offering his political views he is definitely not paying attention to his businesses and the quality of his food. Given this, and the insensitivity he recently displayed in comparing bankers to Hitler, I will no longer eat at his restaurants and will encourage others to do the same.
Del Posto has gone downhill a bit over the years – For the money, one expects the highest quality of ingredients, preparation, presentation, service and decor.
The decor is still very nice.
The service sometimes has 'attitude', and the quality has definitely gone downhill.
Although i used to go regularly, I now prefer other spots.
Boycott Mario Batali Restaurants – Mario Batali's recent comment comparing bankers to Hitler and Stalin are downright disgusting and irresponsible (reference at bottom of review). While there are many views on bankers during these challenging times, his references to such dictators who executed many people for their religion and / or beliefs is hurtful and ignorant. I do not believe it is in this world's best interest to support him or his restaurants given his most recent comments.
google or search for the following article as a reference: "mario-batali-apologizes-for-comments-comparing-bankers-to-hitler-stalin"
Romantic moment – Del Posto is such a romantic place for having a good moment with your partner. They are so quickly with the service and also the entrees are so nice
My review – Del Posto has been opened for awhile now. I finally got to try it when I was there for a friend's birthday. The service was mediocre but the food was phenomenal. Definitely try the risotto.
Amazing birthday dinner – My boyfriend took me here for my birthday last month, and it is the most beautiful restaurant I have ever been to. We had a seat on the second floor, on a balcony over looking the entire restaturant.
There was a pianist on the first floor who played for about 30 min during the 1 1/2 hours we were there.
While we waited for our table, we had a mai tai from the bar. I am definitey not a drinker, and I have never had one before, but this was so yummy, I had 2! I really had to stop myself from ordering another.
Upon being seated we were given a taste of risotto, compliments of he chef. The warm bread they served was so good, they actually had to refill it for us, because we ate it all!
Our waitor was so sweet and helpful. he suggested the 5 course tasting, and it was utterly amazing. The only thing I didn't like was the pasta that was made with a red wine sauce (it was SUPER sweet). Other than that, the food was to die for. We had the prime rib, and it was on par if not better than the porterhouse we usually get at Burton & Doyle's.
The manager came by and gave us complimentary glasses of wine when he found out it was our first time there - nice touch.
I was upset when we still had a couple of courses to go, and I was already stuffed!
Our waiter was nice enough to pack 2 desserts for us, since I couldn't eat another bite.
We will DEFINITELY be back.

SHANKSVILLE, Pa. — The 40 passengers and crew who fought back against their hijackers aboard Flight 93 on Sept. 11 performed one of the most courageous acts in U.S. history, former President George W. Bush said Saturday at a ceremony dedicating the first phase of a memorial at the nation's newest national park.
The hijackers intended to crash the plane in Washington but "never made it because of the determination and valor of the passengers and crew of Flight 93, that plane crashed in this field, less than 20 minutes by air" from the target, said Jon Jarvis, director of the National Park Service.
Bill Clinton likened the actions of those aboard Flight 93 to the defenders of the Alamo in Texas or the Spartans at the Battle of Thermopylae some 2,500 years ago, with a dramatic and telling difference: "They were soldiers. They knew what they had to do."
The passengers and crew were not, but they gave "the entire country an incalculable gift: They saved the capital from attack," an untold amount of lives and denied al-Qaida the symbolic victory of "smashing the center of American government."
They were, he said, "ordinary people given no time at all to decide and they did the right thing. And 2,500 years from now, I hope and pray to God that people will still remember this."
They were among several speakers at the dedication of the Flight 93 National Memorial who told of the sacrifice and honor of the passengers and crew. The ceremony drew more than 4,000 people, including hundreds of victims' relatives, to the rural Pennsylvania field where the hijacked plane crashed nearly 10 years ago.
Those aboard knew that it was more than a hijacking, but an opening shot in a new war, said Vice President Joe Biden said. He said they acted as citizen patriots have done since Capt. John Parker said in April 1775 that if war is what they want, "then let it begin here."
Bush also pointed to what he called a shining example of democracy in action, referring to the group's decision to hold a vote to decide to try to overpower the hijackers.
"The moment America's democracy was under attack our citizens defied their captors by holding a vote," he said. "The choice they made would cost them their lives."
The storming of the cockpit "ranks among the most courageous acts in American history," Bush said.
The Rev. Daniel Coughlin, who was the U.S. House Chaplain at the time of the attacks, called the sacrifices made by the passengers and crew "willing seed for freedom's harvest."
"They refused to be paralyzed. ... They break the silence and decidedly act together. They do only what is possible in an impossible situation," he said in the invocation. "Because they are your children, they find within themselves, true freedoms."
Coughlin's invocation was followed by a long moment of silence as the U.S. flag was brought in, then a singing of "The Star-Spangled Banner." The names of the victims were also read as bells tolled, and Grammy Award-winning musician Sarah McLachlan performed.
Poet Robert Pinsky took to the lectern and read a pair of poems, one about "needing to remember, even if you don't want to," and a second about heroism. The poems came from Brazilian Carlos Drummond de Andrade and Poland's Czeslaw Milosz.
Also during the ceremony, Clinton announced that he and U.S. House Speaker John Boehner will mount a bipartisan effort to raise the remaining $10 million needed to completely fund the memorial.
Ahead of the dedication, crowds getting there were slowed by weather-related traffic jams, muddy conditions and security rules but remained undeterred.
Among them was Butch Stevens, 69, of Carlyle, Ill., who stopped on his way back from a visit to Washington, D.C.
Stevens said he had no connection to anyone aboard the flight, except, as he said, as an American.
"This kind of makes you realize where you live," Stevens said of the bravery of those who died aboard the plane.
The dedication was the day's most prominent Sept. 11 observance among many throughout the country. In New York City, hundreds of families, friends and strangers ringing lower Manhattan clasped hands as a bell clanged at 8:46 a.m. to signify the time the first hijacked plane crashed into the World Trade Center's North Tower. It was one of several public and private events scheduled around the city, including a free performance by the New York Philharmonic and a memorial by Fire Department of New York for its 343 members who died on 9/11 and those who have died from illness after working at ground zero.
In Pennsylvania on Friday, family members of those who died on Flight 93 visited the crash site, read the guestbook and viewed the many mementos left by people from all over the world who have come to pay their respects.
Relatives shed some tears, but they also celebrated the spirit of the guestbook — a rare feeling that people from vastly different walks of life had come together.
"I don't focus on what happened. You can't change that," said Lorne Lyles, whose wife, CeeCee Ross Lyles, had been working as a United Airlines flight attendant for only nine months on that September morning in 2001.
"Coming here is more of a celebratory thing. She's been memorialized," Lyles said. "Just to see the outpouring from all over the world is touching. You really do have some caring people in the world."

Neanderthal Campsite
Some 50,000 years ago, a small group of Neanderthals camped out beneath a rock shelter in what is now western France. Neanderthals were sophisticated toolmakers and even prepared animal hides, which they used as clothing.
Indeed, Neanderthals were probably less brutish and more like modern humans than commonly portrayed. There is evidence that they cared for the elderly and the sick, for instance. Yet they left few signs of having art or using the complex symbols typical of our own species.
Focus On: Homo neanderthalensis
When: 200,000 to 30,000 years ago
Where: Europe and western Asia
Brain Size: up to about 1,700 cubic centimeters, at least as large as a modern human brain
Diet: mainly meat, with some plants
Average Adult Height:
females: 1.6 meters (5 feet, 3 inches)
males: 1.7 meters (5 feet, 7 inches)
Average Adult Weight:
females: 50 kg (110 pounds)
males: 64 kg (140 pounds)
Changing Views
Our understanding of the Neanderthals has shifted over time. A 1919 image depicts a primitive brute; one from 1983 shows a mother engaged in animated conversation, with her hair coiffed and her skirt neatly sewn. Today, scientists think Neanderthals lived in complex social groups, controlled fire and were fairly proficient hunters. Yet they did not create art or possess language as we know it. They did bury their dead, but probably not with an elaborate ritual as modern humans do.
Telltale Teeth
The front teeth of many Neanderthals have been worn down dramatically, suggesting they used their teeth as tools, possibly holding animal hides while scraping them.
40,000-Year-Old DNA
DNA is a delicate molecule--an animal carcass in a temperate climate might have no readable DNA after only 50 years. Yet in 1997, researchers extracted and sequenced 40,000-year-old DNA from a Neanderthal fossil. Since then, several other Neanderthal fossils have yielded DNA sequences.
This Neanderthal DNA confirmed what many scholars already believed: Neanderthals and modern humans are two separate species. By comparing Neanderthal and modern human DNA sequences, researchers estimated that the last common ancestor of the two species lived roughly 500,000 years ago.
To get the first Neanderthal DNA, researchers drilled into a piece of the first Neanderthal fossil find, an arm bone unearthed in 1856 in western Germany's Neander Valley. Researchers handling ancient DNA take great care to avoid contaminating their samples with DNA from their own skin, saliva or hair.

BEREA, Ohio — For a long time, Browns fans have wanted the team to address the offensive line through the draft.
Tom Heckert has done so in his three years as GM with the drafting of Shawn Lauvao, Todd Pinkston, Mitchell Schwartz and Ryan Miller in that time span. Prior to Heckert's arrival, Phil Savage used the third pick overall in 2007 to select left tackle Joe Thomas. Eric Mangini used a first-round pick to take center Alex Mack in 2009.
In summary, the Browns this year, are expecting to start two players selected in the first-round, one each from the second-, third- and fifth-rounds—all drafted by the Browns. If the personnel evaluators were right on those players, the Browns could have a good line for a long time.
Last week, against the Eagles, the line looked anything but good or cohesive as the Eagles sacked Browns quarterbacks five times.
The good news is was the preseason.
The bad news is the Browns play the Eagles in the first regular season game on Sept.9. The Eagles led the NFL with 50 sacks last season.
"I think we're going to be ready for Week 1," Pinkston said after practice Tuesday. "So we're not going to buy into everyone's, 'Oh, no, here we go.' That's not a concern in our room at all.
"As a group we didn't do our best, but some of the outside people they don't really know what's going on the offense," Pinkston said. "They don't know what plays are called or what protection's supposed to happen or what goes on in a certain play.
"We know what's going on in the building, so we don't worry about what they say on the outside."
Thomas said the Browns will be able to game plan and correct the mistakes they made.
"We're going to have the benefit of game-planning and custom-tailoring our offense to how we want to attack their defense," Thomas said. "I expect a much better performance."
Pinkston agreed.
"The things that were out there were more our fault than some of the things they did to us," Pinkston said.
Pat Shurmur thinks the line will be ready when the season starts.
"I'm very confident our offensive line will be one of the strengths of our team," Shurmur said. "(I'm) very confident."
Thomas knows that as the offensive line goes, so goes the offense.
"Generally, speaking, as the offensive line goes, the offense goes," Thomas said. "We're kind of the tone setters. I think we have a really solid offensive line all across the group."
The key for most lines is being cohesive and Pinkston feels the line is getting there.
"I have pretty good chemistry with Joe and Alex now," he said. "Last year, I was just thrown in there. I was trying to learn how they block things and how they operate, and now I know and it feels good. Mitchell he jumped right in and now we're all gelling together."
Schwartz, who gave up a sack and has been learning on the job how to pass block, is slated to make his first NFL start against the Eagles. He says he's not intimidated and feels he'll be ready.
"Granted, they're good players, but I think a lot of breakdown stuff was on our side of the ball," Schwartz said. "Not using the right footwork, not taking the right set, not doing the right thing, but it is all stuff that's correctable for us.
"Obviously, you never want to get the quarterback hit," he said. "But when it's something you can control, it's something you can clean up and prevent in the future. I don't think we were overmatched or anything like that."
Pinkston said the line is looking forward to starting the regular season.
"We're seeing them again here in two weeks," Pinkston said. "That was probably one of the more basic game plans than we had and then they showed us a little different stuff. We learned a lot from it. We learned some stuff that we might see here in two weeks."
McCoy to Start: Shurmur said that QB Brandon Weeden will not play against the Bears in the final preseason game. He said QB Colt McCoy will start for Weeden.
"(Weeden's) not going to play," Shurmur said. "The other three (quarterbacks) will play. Colt will start."
Shurmur said not too many starters will play.
"For the most part, guys who've been lining up with the ones will not play," Shurmur said. "There are a lot of things that go into (the decision), injury and whether guys need to show more."
McCoy, QB Seneca Wallace and QB Thaddeus Lewis took most of all the reps at practice Tuesday.
Shurmur said he feels Weeden is ready for the regular season.
"He's very prepared," Shurmur said. "He's had an outstanding camp and has improved every day."
Fujita Back: LB Scott Fujita was back at practice after missing time since the Lions game with a knee injury. Also DL Brian Schaefering and DB David Sims returned to practice. Schaefering had missed the past two practices, while Sims missed one day.
Cameron Out: TE Jordan Cameron was on the stationary bike not practicing Tuesday with an undisclosed injury. He missed time with a lower back injury suffered against the Lions. RB Trent Richardson (knee), OL Oniel Cousins (foot) and RB Chris Ogbonnaya (ankle) did not practice. Not practicing, but on the stationary bikes were DB Dimitri Patterson (ankle), DL Phil Taylor (pectoral), TE Ben Watson (undisclosed), DB Ray Ventrone (hamstring), Cameron (undisclosed) and DL Scott Paxson (knee).
Roster Decisions: Shurmur said there are roster decisions that will be made from the Bears game.
"There are a handful of decisions that we have to make," he said. "Some of those will determine how guys play in the game."
All NFL teams must be down to a 53 man roster by Friday night. Eight players can be added to the practice squad. Currently the Browns have 75 players on the roster.
New Guy: The Browns claimed DL Ernest Owusu on Monday and Shurmur said you can never have enough depth at defensive line.
"We brought in a guy that we felt good about," he said. "He will help with depth."
Owusu is wearing No. 42 and is expected to play against the Bears. He was an undrafted free agent from the Vikings.

The Meade Model 9400 Microscope is a precision instrument enabling startling
views of the microcosmic world with its all-metal construction, fine glass
optical elements, and precision adjustments.
Your Meade microscope will be your companion in a hidden realm of unimagined
detail and wondrous structures within everyday objects from crystalline
structures in minerals to a veritable zoo of microorganisms in a drop of
pond water.
Unpacking and Assembly.
Your Meade Model 9400 Microscope requires some minor assembly of the Eyepiece,
Objective Lenses, and Illuminating Mirror.
To complete the assembly, carefully remove the Illuminating Mirror (1) from
the foam packaging and thread in its mounting post in the hole of the microscope
base, under the microscope Stage (2).
Then carefully unthread each of the three Objective Lenses from their storage
bottles and thread them into the Objective Lens Turret (3).
For final assembly, locate the WF (wide field) 10X Eyepiece (4), unthread
the eyepiece set-screw (5) on the microscope's drawtube (6) with a small
flat-head screwdriver, slide the WF10X Eyepiece into the drawtube and tighten
the eyepiece set-screw.
Using the Microscope.
In any microscope, the objective lens magnifies the illuminated specimen
on the microscope Stage, and then is further magnified by the microscope's
eyepiece. In this way the image can be magnified many times. The Meade Model
9400 Microscope offers magnifications of 40X, 100X, and 400X.
To get started, use a prepared microscope glass slide, and place it on the
center of the microscope Stage over the Condensing Lens (7). Clamp it down
with the Stage Clips (8) that are on either side of the aperture of the
Aim the Illuminating Mirror at a nearby light source, look through the Eyepiece
and tilt the Mirror until illumination is seen through the Eyepiece. Turn
the 5-Aperture Rotary Diaphragm (9) of the Stage so that the largest opening
(position 5) is placed under the Condensing Lens aperture, this will insure
that the maximum amount of light will illuminate the specimen.
Always start observing using the lowest magnification with the microscope.
In the case of the Meade Model 9400, use the 4X Objective Lens (10) by rotating
the Objective Lens Turret so that the 4X Objective Lens (engraved "4/
0.1") is aiming at the center of the Stage (when it is in the proper
position it will click into place). The 4X Objective Lens will give a 40X
(40 power) view with the 10X Eyepiece. Final Power is calculated by multiplying
the Objective Lens Power by the Eyepiece Power (e.g., 4 X 10 = 40).
Focus the microscope by slowly turning the coarse Adjustment Focus Knob
(13), until an image forms in the Eyepiece. Then with the Fine Adjustment
Knob (14), slowly rack the focus back and forth to get the best focus, or
to reveal hidden structure at different depths of the specimen being examined.
Note that the WF10X Eyepiece has an internal pointer to reference a specific
region in the object being examined.
If the image appears too bright, rotate the 5-Aperture Rotary Diaphragm
until a comfortable view is seen. You can choose between aperture positions
5, 4, 3, 2 and 1. If the image is too dim, use the largest aperture and
increase the brightness of the light source being reflected by the Illuminating
To increase magnification, rotate the Objective Lens Turret to center the
10X Objective Lens (11) over the specimen for 100X, or the 40X (12) Objective
Lens for 400X. When using higher magnifications focusing becomes more critical
and the objective lens will come closer to the specimen in order to reach
focus. Use the same techniques in coarse and fine focusing as described
above and use care so that the Objective Lens does not come in direct contact
with the specimen when achieving a final focus.
As with any quality instrument, your Meade Microscope should be stored in
a cool, dry place free of dust, acid and fumes.
The lenses and Illuminating Mirror of your Meade Microscope should be cleaned
as infrequently as possible. Tiny particles of dust on the surface of the
lenses or the Illuminating Mirror causes negligible loss of image quality.
In all cases avoid touching the optical and mirror surfaces, and never disassemble
the optical parts of the microscope.
When lens or mirror cleaning does become necessary, use a camel's hair brush
or compressed air gently to remove dust. If the microscope is covered with
the included plastic bag between uses, cleaning of the optics will rarely
be required.
Magnifications: 40X, 100X, and 400X
Objectives: 4/ 0.1 (4X), 10/ 0.25 (10X), and 40/ 0.65 (40X)
Eyepiece: Multi-coated Wide Field 10X
Focuser: Rack-and-Pinion Type, with coarse and fine adjustment
Stage Size: 114mm X 117mm
Illumination: Substage Plano/Concave Mirror
Viewing Angle: 0 to 90 degrees
Weight: 7 lbs.

WHEELING - Early voting for the 2011 special primary election for governor in West Virginia concluded Wednesday, with turnout numbers in the six Northern Panhandle counties light but comparable to those for last year's special primary election for U.S. Senate.
Three of the counties actually exceed the early turnout numbers posted for the U.S. Senate primary on Aug. 27. The two special primary elections can be compared, as both fell during non-presidential election years and had just one race on the ballot.
Overall turnout for the U.S. Senate primary across West Virginia last year was 12 percent.
Early voting for the 2011 special primary election for governor began April 29.
Poll workers in Ohio County reported a very busy day for early voting Wednesday, as 246 people cast ballots. That brought the total of early voters in Ohio County to 1,157 - surpassing last year's total of 992.
Marshall County - home county of acting state Senate President Jeff Kessler, a Democratic gubernatorial candidate - reported 1,005 early ballots cast in this year's gubernatorial primary. This compares to 757 in the county last year for U.S. Senate.
In Wetzel County, 574 early votes were cast - slightly more than the 529 received there last year.
Other local counties, though, reported early turnouts below last year's figures.
Hancock County's early vote total was 392, while 467 voted early in the 2010 U.S. Senate special primary.
A total of 310 early voted in Brooke County, where 320 cast early ballots last year.
Tyler County, meanwhile, reported 200 early voters in the 2011 special gubernatorial primary - down from 221 in the 2010 special primary for U.S. Senate.
Election Day in the special primary election for governor is Saturday, with polls opening at 6:30 a.m. and closing at 7:30 p.m.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I was searching for a nautical theme for our save the dates, as my fiancé and I are being married at our family lake house. The anchor theme was too cute to pass up. The design team worked with me so I could add our wedding website on the back of the postcard, so it would be neatly printed on the top. Additionally, the paper quality, image resolution and overall look of the card are wonderful. I have used Wedding Paper Divas for my thank you cards, my return addresses, and a sticker for our welcome bags. I cannot imagine working with another company-- they have helped solve so many of our wedding needs. Than you!"
"The card was fantastic. I received so many compliments on it. I selected some colors that did not end up printing well at all. Without any hesitation, I was sent a whole new set of replacement cards. I didn't even have to hassle with sending the originals back. That is true customer service. I couldn't be happier with my experience with wedding paper divas and I will continue using them as other needs arise. Thanks again!"
"My fiance and I bought these Save the Dates for our upcoming wedding because we loved the calendar idea and the font was very sleak. All of our guests told us how beautiful and classy the cards were because it didn't scream "SAVE THE DATE". Customer service and delivery was also great, we got the invites very quickly and they were a very quality product."
"With three months until my wedding, I panicked. I'd looked in invitation paper stores and they all gave me 3 week delivery windows. I found wedding paper divas, entered my info and within minutes I had them ordered. In three days they were in my hands! I'm pretty picky about paper, design, etc. and the quality is great. The envelopes are basic...but they were fine for the save the date cards. I will probably buy paper source envelopes to go with the invitations. They are beautiful. I'm so impressed."
"Card was simply beautiful. We changed the color of the image to black as we didn't care for the brown that it originally came with. I can't wait for our guests to receive them."

I feel like they are ruining Klaus character. He is so emo lately, cries alot and now he cares for a vampire barbie who he wanted to kill to complete his ritual but luckily got saved. He is suppose to be cold, ruthless and menacing. Now I think he just needs to go to therapy, hash out his family problems and then join the gang for Mystic falls endless parties. It's like he and Stefan totally switched personalities. Now Stefan is the supposed detached vampire with no feelings but resentment and rage. I guess the writers decided it was Stefan's turn to go down that lonely depressed angry stage too that Klaus and Damon went through. I like DE but I agree with Damon that now is not the right time. Elena is still wishy washy to me and annoying. I feel like it will be a long while before she will ever admit her feelings for Damon to Damon. And last, Damon was looking very delicious when he was showering. The man has a fine body.
Also loving crazy Stephen. He's way more fun and exciting now! It was messed up what he did to Elena, what with that being the bridge where her parents died. The Elena character needs WAY more emotion for those scenes. Seriously, it's only been like a year, maybe two, since her parents died there. And she's just...over it?! I don't think so. Getting minorly choked up about it isn't going to cut it.
Vampires, werewolves, witches, ghosts, hybrids. All this "quaint" little town needs is a sociopathic serial killer who's actually just a crazy person. Oh wait, now they have that too. Honestly anyone in their right mind would pull a Jeremy and just pack up and GO, but then we wouldn't have a show. Can't wait to find out who the killer is. They're setting it up to look like Dr. Fell did it, but this show rarely does what it "sets up." Obviously Damon will be looking into it....it wasn't just ANY murder. It was a murder by someone who doesn't mind bringing attention to vampires.
Honestly think the weapon to kill Klaus would be His mother ...but I dont want klaus dead after what he said to Caroline ..NO WAY....And I LOVE DAMON mmore than anything but I dont want a Delena ..I mean ya sure he should I mean he did want her for along time and Kat-aa-reen-a BUT NO Stefan is better Lover/Villon and Damon is Better IDK better everything ..BUT I just cant imagina a boyfriend...and I'm happy that Dr.Phil isnt just gonna be another Normal Girlfriend........And Whats Up wid MaTT !!! smething is up
I bet Bill Forbes was brought in to work on Tyler and his sire bond cult logic. Who is the foremost expert on resisting compulsion WITHOUT vervain? Bill Forbes. Come on....they didn't bring that up to use in just one episode to then forget about it. It had to be a set up for when they break Tyler of his sire bond. Hoping for Forwood sake, it works!
Love Joseph Morgan. He is so sexy. I loved the scene with him and Caroline and with him being so tender towards her. He definitely needs a love interest at some point, preferably someone who's feisty and sassy. No clinging, whiney types for this Original. Maybe an on again, off again vampire girlfriend. I would love for Klaus and Caroline to be together, but that definitely wouldn't work for the show. Plus I really like Forwood. They are too cute. Caroline should totally milk it though....get that diamond jewelry girlfriend!
Honestly, I think Klaus feels threatened by Caroline. She can make Tyler say no to his Sired Master, and that's something that Klaus can't have. He needs complete loyalty and Caroline prevents that. So I'm guessing that he's trying to keep Caroline away from Tyler so that Tyler won't defy him anymore. Let's face it, Tyler is a very invaluable weapon for Klaus, because none of the Mystic Falls kids actually want to kill him. He's their friend, even if he is sired to Klaus.
The bracelet was definitely deliberate. While it accomplished its (most likely intended) goal of making Tyler's bracelet look sort of childish next to Klaus's, I think Tyler's was still more fitting of where Caroline is at. The charm bracelet had cheerleading charms and such, reflecting who Caroline actually is as a person, whereas Klaus's was more sophisticated. I'm guessing Tyler doesn't have the financial means to compete with that...
LOVED CAROLINE AND KLAUS!! THEY WERE SOOO CUTE!! but i'm afraid klaus is planning something... or maybe she remembers him to rebekah (forwoord was also cute) it's been the best episode so far
wanna know who is in the coffin
maybe alaric killed that doctor
i don't want jeremy to go :(

Technology Helps Banish Safety Fears
Story supplied by LU Press Office
Researchers at InfoLab21 are harnessing developments in technology to help us feel safer in public.
Whether you're uneasy jogging through your local park or hesitant about crossing a busy road, a team of researchers are working on new ways to help people register their concerns and bring about a change to the way public spaces are designed.
Mobile Computing and Artificial Intelligence are just some of the tools researchers are planning to use to capture public opinion during a series of trials in Lancaster, Coventry and Derry over coming years.
Professor Jon Whittle of Lancaster University's InfoLab21 is leading the £855,000 project funded under the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council's Digital Economy programme.
Professor Whittle, who is based in the Computing Department, said: "The people who use a space are the people who know it best but the pressures of modern life mean that they are unlikely to find the time to register their views and put forward suggestions for change.
"This kind of tacit knowledge is really valuable to designers but very difficult for them to access.
"We hope to use technology to make it quick and easy for people to pass on their observations, helping us to improve the design and safety of our shared public spaces whether that be a city underpass or a leafy park."
The three-year project 'VoiceYourView' brings together computer scientists, crime experts, ergonomists and designers across the UK and is a collaboration between Lancaster, Aston, Manchester, Coventry and Brunel Universities.
Technology trials are set to take place in Lancaster in November 2009; Derry in summer 2010; Coventry in summer 2011.

need vst~ help
Nov 28, 2011 at 7:57am
need vst~ help
I'm trying to use the Cheeze Machine string-synth VST plugin (freeware) with the [vst~] object in Max 5.
I'm able to get the plugin to load (sending an "open" message to the top left inlet of [vst~] lets me see the plugin), and I'm able to change the plugin's parameters through the [vst~] object, but I'm not getting any sound.
When I send the "get -1″ message to get the number of inputs for the plugin, I get a "0″ out of the Parameter Index outlet.
Is this an issue with the plugin or with how I'm using the [vst~] object? I haven't used any VST plugins before, let alone using them in Max, so I would appreciate any help on this.
Nov 28, 2011 at 11:27am
Notice that [vst~] requires midi input in a special format, ie. raw midi bytes with prefix 'midievent'.
Nov 28, 2011 at 3:04pm
Also notice vst~ is a MSP object and it needs the audio to be turned on, even if you're dealing with midi.
Nov 28, 2011 at 3:10pm
Now I just need to find a way to make a glissando. I'm trying to change frequency to MIDI values in a continuous microtonal glissando driven by a [line] object. Is there a MIDI message to send to the [vst~] that will allow for this? Or is glissando not allowed with this particular plugin?
I am using the [ftom] object, but I'm only getting half steps to sound. I know the MIDI range is probably the issue… is there a way to scale it so that I hear a continuous glissando?
Here is my patch so far:
– Pasted Max Patch, click to expand. –
Copy all of the following text.Then, in Max, select New From Clipboard.
Dec 1, 2011 at 10:52pm
The MIDI protocol is limited to 128 notes, so if you want microtonal or glissandi, your best bet to 'fill the gaps' is pitchbend, which may or may not be supported by your VST

LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) - Back home after losing three straight on the road and falling out of the Top 10, No. 13 Kentucky recovered with a 70-61 victory over Vanderbilt on Monday night.
Samarie Walker scored 15 points and grabbed 12 rebounds for the Wildcats (22-5, 11-3 Southeastern Conference), now tied with Tennessee for the conference lead.
The Wildcats' SEC victory total is their highest ever and was their 19th consecutive win at home, 17 of those this season.
Tiffany Clarke scored 19 points and Christina Foggie 16 for the Commodores (20-7, 8-6), who could have tied four teams for third place in the SEC.
Walker scored 13 points in the first half, which ended with Kentucky ahead 39-23. Vanderbilt got as close as 61-55 with 1:21 left after an 11-0 run, but Bria Goss' jumper with 1:08 remaining restored Kentucky's lead to eight.
Keyla Snowden added 14 points and Goss 12 for Kentucky.

I'm too lazy to try to make a limerick today, so I'm going to attempt to write a poem called a Clerihew. Apparently they are stupid little biographical poems about a famous person. Rhyme and meter are irregular, which is a plus for me as I never learned exactly what meter is. This seems a perfect poem for me to try, simple and undemanding as it is. Even so, you ought to tell me if I have been successful.
Barack Obama
Is a national trauma.
For a man so profound
His mistakes do abound.
Well that wasn't so bad. I'm not saying it was good, just that it wasn't so bad as I thought. Let's try another.
Famously famous Kim Kardashian
Is known for her particular fash-i-an.
Among other things
I've heard that she sings.
It's sort of weird to intentionally mess up the meter and all those other parts of the poem. Generally I can do that without trying. Onward.
Mitt Romney hasn't yet clinched
Though his wallet's assuredly pinched.
He'd be doing better
But there's that Irish Setter.
I don't even know what breed that dog was. Was it a setter? Poor thing. We'll hear all about it before November. I bet there will even be a Taiwanese animation.
Andrew Breitbart
Was called to depart.
It was proper to eulogize
Now for WHAT should we apologize?
There we go, my official contribution to the Breitbart hagiography. I had a chance to meet him at CPAC. Someone offered to introduce me, and indeed I was about 5 feet from him most of that night. But I demurred, thinking there would probably be another opportunity. There was not.
Post your own dippy little clerihew in the comments! No matter how stupid and ignorant you think it is, someone, somewhere will think it marginally better.

My final choice was Jardiniere. I did read mixed reviews about this restuarant, but found it to meet all of my needs. So I made a reservation about a month in advance through opentable.com. I was not disappointed.
The restaurant is a 5- to 10-minute taxi ride from the Pan Pacific and is located right next to the opera house. I believe the restaurant is known as a dinner spot for the opera crowd--before or after the show. We arrived about 15 minute before our reservation, so we were able to enjoy a drink at the bar and admire the beautiful decor--which was quite stunning. The restuarant consists of two floors and a gorgeous bar that is situated in the middle of the first floor. When we arrived, a three-person jazz band was just beginning to set up.
We were seated promptly at our reservation time. I had requested, through opentable.com, a table with more privacy and the host kindly accomadated that without having to remind him. I recommend sitting upstairs, where there is less commotion.
The food was fantastic! Very creative and delicious. I had the diver scallops to start and the halibut as my main course. My boyfriend had the pork chops. I must say that for being such a high-end restuarant, the portions were rather large. We definitely were not going to leave hungry!
We finished off our meal with two decadent desserts. I don't think you could go wrong with anything on their menu. We also enjoyed the ice wine tasting to end a magical evening.
Yes, this was an expensive treat, at $230 including wine and tip, but we wanted to splurge on a great dinner. Jardiniere did not disappoint. My only very minor complaint would be that the service seemed almost robotic - our server was not very personable. But I know some like to enjoy their meals without interruption.
I recommend this restaurant for any special occasion.

The Art Tech Center houses a number of technology resources for the MICA campus. Originally a union headquarters, the College purchased and renovated the building in the 1980's to become MICA's first cafeteria. When the new campus cafeteria was built in 2005 within the Meyerhoff House, plans were made to reuse the building and in 2007 the Art Tech Center was developed as a central resource to house MICA's growing fabrication and printing technologies. Today the Art Tech Center is home to the following resources:
- The Digital Print Studio
- Fiber Department's wide format textile printing system
- Ten different desktop computers in the first floor computer lab, including nine Mac computers and one PC
The Center is located at 1208 Mt. Royal Ave near the College Store and is open to all faculty, staff and students through Micard access.

Spice Blends
In-House Blend
Fish, vegetables, legumes, rice and coconuts are staple ingredients to Maharashtra, India's mid western coastal state. In this region, Kala Masala is used like the more commonly known Garam Masala, yet a healthy dose of toasted coconut adds sweetness and guajillo chiles add a bit of heat to the dark aromatic blend. Black cardamom, black cumin, black sesame, star anise, clove, peppercorn, cassia chip, poppy, bay, turmeric and amchoor round out the base of toasted coriander. Try using like a BBQ rub on fish, in your next batch of rice or in our Kala Masala Skillet Cornbread. This blend is salt free.

DuPont to Double Solamet® Production to Meet Surging Solar Energy Market Demand
Metallization Materials Increase Solar Cell Efficiency to Help Reduce Dependence on Fossil Fuels
|Contact: Dan Turner
WILMINGTON, Del., Aug. 31, 2010 – DuPont announced plans to double production capacity for its market-leading DuPont™ Solamet® photovoltaic metallization pastes, based on strong, continued growth in the solar energy industry and accelerated demand for new materials that enable higher efficiency photovoltaic cells. As part of DuPont's efforts to help reduce the world's dependence on fossil fuels, the capacity increase is consistent with the company's expectation that its sales of enabling innovations into photovoltaic applications will exceed $1 billion in 2011 and $2 billion by 2014.
We are seeing extremely strong demand from our customers, while the supply of certain materials in the photovoltaic market has been tight," said David B. Miller, president – DuPont Electronics & Communications. "This additional capacity expansion demonstrates our commitment to decreasing dependence on fossil fuels by meeting our customers' needs for materials that increase the efficiency of solar cells and modules. By increasing efficiency, Solamet® paste helps reduce overall system costs, thereby making photovoltaic power more competitive with other forms of electricity generation."
DuPont is applying the power of its integrated science to help reduce the world's dependence on fossil fuels. DuPont has a range of market-leading innovations that address the renewable energy challenge, including enabling materials for photovoltaics, biofuels, renewably sourced materials and technologies engineered to improve energy efficiency.
The planned capacity expansion, which will more than double the production capacity for Solamet® products for the photovoltaic industry, involves DuPont Microcircuit Materials facilities in Manati, Puerto Rico; Dongguan, China; and Taoyuan, Taiwan. Completion of the work is expected in 2011. This is the second major Solamet® expansion in the last two years. In February 2009, DuPont announced it doubled production capacity at its European electronic materials manufacturing facility in Bristol, U.K.
DuPont™ Solamet® photovoltaic metallization pastes are made from silver and other materials, which collect electricity produced by the solar cell and transport it out of the cell. They play a critical role in how efficiently photovoltaic modules turn sunlight into electricity. The advances made by DuPont in the field of front- and back-side metallization contacts have resulted in significant efficiency gains for solar cell technology. In 1998, the efficiency of a crystalline silicon solar cell was approximately 10 percent. Today, these cells operate at close to 16 percent for multi-crystalline wafers, and at greater than 18 percent for monocrystalline wafers; a rise in efficiency that is partly due to the performance provided by the metallizations DuPont has developed. Higher module efficiency delivers more power from the same module, so even a fraction of a percent efficiency improvement can substantially increase the return on investment from a photovoltaic system.
DuPont™ Solamet® photovoltaic metallizations are part of the broad and growing portfolio of products represented by DuPont Photovoltaic Solutions, which connects science and technology from across the company on a global scale to help support the dramatic growth of the photovoltaic industry.

100% of customers would recommend this product to a friend (18 out of 18)
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Even though all the stickers are black and white, they come in 10 very different styles. They stick very easily. The quality is good and the size is perfect: not too big but not too small either. Once I forgot to apply a clear top coat after putting the stickers on and was surprised to realise that they did not come off.
Cons: Sometimes it can be a bit hard to remove a sticker off the sheet, but, with the help of tweezers it can be easily done.
Other: Great quality for a very small price! Definitely recommend these. I will buy them again when I run out.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: They are very feminine stickers. Beautiful and varied. Very cheap and excellent presentation. For longer you should apply a base coat, your favorite nail polish and a couple of layers of top coat In my country there are nail stickers like these but they are expensive or cheap are of lower quality.
Cons: Nothing. Really. No cons
Other: I am very happy with this purchase and recommend to look different and fun nails.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Very pretty designs, and a package includes a nice variety of them. Compared to what I would pay in my home country they are very cheap, and I think the quality is better than most of what I could find. Work well on bare nails and nail polished ones.
Cons: Well, in their very nature these things are "fiddly". Not easy to get them exactly where you want them, even and in the same place on all your nails -and you pretty much need someone else to put them on. (Or rather, I needed that)
Other: If you'd lie a relatively simple way to "spice up" your nail decorations a bit this is a great product for you. There were a few different types included in the package, but I don't quite remember how many -it wasn't much of a concern for me.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: I'm not a pro in using make up or doing nails arts. But this product is good in its quality. The design is great and it sticks well and fast ( so becareful once you put it). you've got ten assorted sheet packs in black and white. for the price it's a great deal. I received them in good condition.
Cons: The shipping was a bit long , delivering in the Pacific ( about a month and half). The instructions are too simple. You should search on the net how to use them before.
Other: Enjoy them!
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Easy to use even for an amateur. I just love nails sticker! You can make any concept for your nails to look pretty.
Cons: not much cute design. it doesn't took a long time to stay in your nails even you're already put a top coat.
Other: Hope the manufacture will give more cute design and more good quality so it will last longer than before. :)
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: For the price of these stickers, they will make a great addition to the Christmas presents for the girl cousins who will be visiting this year. I was looking for some items that would 'top up' the gifts that I had already ordered (thanks DX!).
Cons: None I can think of given the product is low-tech, and does what it claims.
Other: You'll be pleased with the purchase of these items because of the price, number and ease of use of these.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: So many Stickers, great variety . Perfect size for your nails . Very cheap as the same brand is sold in the stores here for $4 a sheet.
Cons: Absolutely no cons that I can think of.
Other: I would recommend these to any woman that likes to do her nails. These little stickers can turn a basic polish into a masterpiece . Also any guys out there , these are so cheap you can throw a few in with your order and your wife will be happy .
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: The stickers are in a great number and they are very cheap if u compare the packages-sheets which are sold anywhere close to my country. I belive they are also quite of good quality, especially if u use them in a right way!
Cons: There could be even a lower price because the item isnt so expensive to produce-they are "jjust" stickers :)
Other: Good buy if U wish to buy simple stickers for everyday use or a profesional nail care
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Very nice mix of stickers. Different colours, 4 black/white, 2 red, 1 rosa, 1 lila, 2 coloured (1 with glittered flowers). Look to be of good quality. Very fast shipping.
Cons: I can´t see any. Probably only one - you do not kno ehat you will receive, it´s sent by chance.

Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
