Monthly ice transport varies at the mooring locations from a maximum export of 0.4 m3s−1 near Joinville Island to −0.4 m3s−1 imported along the Fimbul and Riiser–Larsen ice-shelf margins. Winter peaks are observed at each end of the flux gate, where high concentrations of deformed ice are advected in and out of the basin along the coastline. The central gyre, in contrast, exhibits negligible seasonality and much smaller volume transports. During the period of overlapping ULS operation, the mean monthly integrated ice export west of the gyre center is 59 × 103 m3s−1, and the import in the East Wind Drift is −17 × 103 m3s−1. ULS data are compared with ERS satellite observation of radar backscatter to obtain an empirical relationship between ice thickness and the rate of change of backscatter with incidence angle. Resulting proxy ice-thickness data are combined with Special Sensor Microwave/Imager-derived ice velocities to obtain seasonally varying estimates of net ice-volume flux for the period 1992-98. Significant inter-annual variability is observed in ice-volume flux expressed as fresh-water transport. A maximum annual mean of 0.054 Sv is observed in 1992, with a minimum of 0.015 Sv in 1996. A 6 year mean transport of 0.032 Sv is observed. Maximum seasonal ice export occurs in July 1992, with a minimum in November 1996. The 10 year mean area flux is 30 × 103 m2s−1. Inter-annual variations in net volume flux closely follow variations in area flux, with summer minima in 1990/91 and 1996/97.

These dishes arrived with a broken mug. The gave me a $$$ in store credit. I washed them in the dishwasher and the paint around the rim started to fade. When I took them out of the dishwasher they had water stains all over them. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. I had to re-package them back up and drive them to the UPS store which is about 8 miles from where I live and sent them back. Overstock.com took back the $$$ in store credit. Who was inconvenienced here. Again, I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. I'm very disappointed.
These dishes are terrible. We ordered two sets of these dishes. We took the first ones out of the boxes and there were chips all over the plates. We washed them and the color faded and made them look dirty. We did not open the other box, we sent them back and just threw away the box that we opened.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? The color was not the same in the picture
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. The quality was poor
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Not accurate
These dishes were exactly what I wanted. The set is huge! It comes with everything I will ever need, and looks great set out on the table. It has a unique contemporary look that I am very pleased with. The only negative is we have the wipe them down after washing in the dishwasher because the water spots show on the dark dished. I think that would be the same with any black dish set though. Love them!
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? The center of he dishes look a little more brown in real life.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. For the price, it can't be beat!
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Right on.
I received these dishes super quick, none were broken. Rims are more silver than black, looks good. Downfall is that the rims hold fingerprints, water stains. You must really wipe the rims dry thoroughly and then they are fine. Decent buy, nice size bowls and plates.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? yes
- How is the quality of the product? average
- Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? yes
I love this set! The grey/silver is so eye catching and blends well with our decor and personal level of taste: simple yet attractive. 1st downfall: the stoneware is not as heavy or thick as I would like it to be. But you do get what you pay for and this was an outstanding deal! 2nd downfall: the grey/silver trim accent holds onto fingerprints etc even when your hands are clean. It weird and hard to explain but we have gotten used to it. With these two combined "downfalls", I gave it a 4 star rating, but maybe more of a 4 1/2 rating, because I really do love this set!
This is a nice set of dishes. The outside rims of the plates, outside rims of the salad bowls, outside of the mugs, and the outside of ice cream bowls is very gray/silver (not black). I ordered them because they were listed as black, but I am actually very pleased because they match the stainless in my kitchen well! I have hand washed them and have not had any problems with spots (my dishwasher is down). They are very pretty and they are not overly delicate as some I have shopped for seemed. They were packed nicely and I didn't have any that were broken.
Many pieces in this set came with flaws in the glaze - scratches and discoloration. The fingerprint issues as mentioned by others is significant. Overstock was wonderful for promptly replacing the components that were unacceptable. I like the style of this dinnerware and the two sizes of bowls. The packaging was excellent but the manufacturing needs better quality control.
Very satisfied that I ordered this set. Very happy
Two large boxes arrived-removed plates, bowls quite impressed until I got the desert plates- each plate with scratches on the surface of the ceramic impossible to keep- bought two set and each set had the same flaws returning with great disappointment- quite cautious about request return items as others had commented on similar flaws with color of the glaze- which I noticed as well but could live with that finish as it made the bowls look interesting. Will return borh set quite disappointed.
We ordered two sets of these dishes, they arrived quickly, and were packed well. Upon opening the first box I noticed a few discrepancies from the picture. 1. The inside of the mugs, and the smaller bowls were a blue/black cooler. 2 The rims were not so much of a metallic/pewter, as others had described. 3. The larger bowl didn't have the accent color on the outside as shown in the photo. It just had the shiny glaze. 4. The glaze on all other dishes was more of a brown/black. 5 One of the mug handles was broken, and a few of the plates were scratched. We were still happy enough even with these problems, but then�we opened the second box, and some of the plates were a blue/black, and some were brown/black. The glazing looked cheap, incomplete, and unprofessional on a few of these plates. We called overstock immediately, and they are sending two more boxes for us to pick through. We haven't used any of them yet. At this point, just hoping for the best.
I can't say enough good things about this set of dishes. They are substantial and beautiful. The dinner plates and luncheon plates are the perfect size - not too big or small. I like the little bit of detail on the rim of the plates. It gives them the look of a more expensive set. The number of pieces you get for this price is unbelievable. It's not unusual to pay this amount for a 4-place setting set of dishes. Additionally, I especially like the fact that it comes with 2 different size bowls. This is such a functionally useful set that it allowed me to eliminate my old everyday dishes and a bunch of mismatched smaller bowls that I kept to use instead of the large salad bowls my last set had. Love it and seriously thinking about buying a 2nd set.
I've had these for about 2 months now and love them. I knocked one of the coffee cups off the table with a dog toy and it did not even chip! They do occasionally have water marks if I don't dry them thoroughly after taking them out of the dishwasher and hold finger prints if you grab them with wet hands. Sometimes it just fades away, sometimes you have to re-rinse and dry, not a big deal. The dinner plates are very large so if I'm on a health kick I use the smaller plates. Overall great dishes!
I really loved the dishes. I live overseas and they were well packed. No breaks or cracks. What else can I say, really glad I chose these.
I bought two sets. I love them, perfect sized bowls and cups are hard to find. Now my son wants a set. We are waiting for it to go on sale again to buy one for him.
This was a gift for my son who recently bought his own home. He was very pleased the quality and design. It fit him perfectly! He said "You really know me mom!"
My husband and I had been looking to replace the dishes we received for our wedding and ones that would match anywhere we were living. These ones, we both agreed on and both love.
these dishes are stoneware and look very nice. The color may initially throw you off as the trim is almost like a pewter color and kind of metallic in appearance. I was pleasantly surprised to get a whole shipment without any chips and just a few minor scratches...overall very happy.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Moderately
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. The dishes are pretty good quality especially for the price.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Pretty good
I bought the first set six months before buying a second set. Both sets arrived fully intact, no chips or breaks. Yes, the contrasting rims may show water marks and fingerprints but to me it gives the pieces the look of western raku technique pottery. A look I love but one that is not food safe. I've redone my loft with a refined industrial feel and these dishes fit in perfectly.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Really close
Love the dishes. They arrived quickly and undamaged.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? More gray than expected
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. A couple small spots where glaze is missing, but overall very nice.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Very.
The dishes i ordered are the best, i will recommend these to friends that are looking for the same kind of dish set. The service was also excellent. Irecommend this site to everyone i know.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? awsome
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. top notch
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? very accurate

Fifth-year senior Eric Anderson (Highlands Ranch, Colo.) continued his strong 2014 campaign with another impressive showing, throwing six innings, striking out seven and holding No. 22 Mississippi State (26-15, 10-8) to three runs in Mizzou's (17-21, 6-12) 9-7, 11-inning loss to the Bulldogs Sunday (April 20) afternoon at Taylor Stadium. Anderson also scored a run to help the Tigers build a 7-3 lead into the seventh inning. Anderson's outing was his latest in a string of strong starts, as the senior has now thrown at least six innings with three or less runs allowed in his last five starts, boasting a strikeout-to-walk ratio of 41-to-6 in those contests. As the leadoff hitter, Anderson has now reached in the first inning in 18 of 27 attempts.

Stosur powers into French semis
A "man's game" helped propel Sam Stosur past Dominika Cibulkova and into the semi-finals of the French Open while her petite opponent in the next round, Sara Errani, needed a more delicate touch to beat Angelique Kerber.
Stosur's high-kicking serve and ferocious top-spin groundstrokes bamboozled 15th seed Cibulkova to such an extent during her 6-4, 6-1 defeat that she resorted to a most unflattering description of her Australian opponent.
"Her topspin and her serve... she played like a man, and it's really hard to play against a man," Cibulkova said.
"It was driving me crazy on the court today. So it was really, really hard. Really tough."
Waiting for Stosur in the semi-finals is the slightly-built Italian Errani, who at 1.64 metres tall lacks the physical stature of many of the top performers in the women's game.
"I don't have too much power so I have to think more," Errani said after relying on her wily approach to overcome 10th-seeded German Kerber 6-3, 7-6.
Whether or not her cerebral approach will be enough to beat Stosur, who has powered through to the semi-finals without dropping a set, remains to be seen.
The Australian, who won the US Open in 2011, has a 5-0 record against Errani and is playing in the last four at Roland Garros for the third time in four years.
The shoulder-high bounce Stosur generated on her serve to such good effect against Cibulkova, the shortest player in the top 100, could prove a problem for Errani, who has lost all five of their previous encounters.
They have, however, only faced each other once on clay and, with a 23-3 record this year on the red dust, Errani can rightly claim to be an altogether more fearsome opponent on clay than elsewhere.
Stosur, who lost to Errani's compatriot Francesca Schiavone in the 2010 final, is unlikely to underestimate the threat posed by the number 21 seed who has already eliminated two former champions Ana Ivanovic and Svetlana Kuznetsova.
"She's going to be tough," Stosur said.
"She's not very tall but it doesn't mean that it's easy.
"She's played very well to get to this point so you have to be ready."
It was Stosur's unique playing style that outfoxed Cibulkova in the early afternoon sun on Philippe Chatrier Court.
The kick-serve wide to force her opponent off court was regularly followed by the cross-court winner, while her composure in staving off nine out of 10 break points helped her edge a close first set and stroll away with the second.
It was an altogether more complicated affair for Errani, who despite winning in straight sets showed a lot of vulnerability as both she and Kerber struggled to hold serve.
Errani released a guttural roar that reverberated around Roland Garros after edging a bizarre second set that featured six successive breaks and eight in total.

text: FDIC Approves Final Securitization Safe Harbor September 28, 2010 On Monday, September 27, 2010, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") approved its final rule1 (the "Rule") regarding amendments to its securitization "safe harbor rule."2 The Rule ostensibly was approved to bring the FDIC's existing securitization safe harbor into line with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's newly promulgated FAS 166 and 167 governing sale accounting treatment, which went into effect for reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009.3 Through adoption of the Rule, the FDIC seeks to use its authority to repudiate contracts when a Bank fails as the basis for comprehensively regulating the issuance and servicing of Bank- related asset backed securities in connection with a securitization or a participation occurring after December 31, 2010. Notably, in approving the Rule, the FDIC has imposed new substantive securitization requirements as a condition to utilizing the safe harbor for securitizations by insured depository institutions (each, a "Bank"), without regard to whether the transaction qualifies for sale accounting treatment under FAS 166 and 167. 1 12 C.F.R. § 360.6. See Final Rule regarding safe harbor protection for Treatment by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as Conservator or Receiver of Financial Assets Transferred by an Insured Depository Institution in Connection With a Securitization or Participation After September 30, 2010. http://www.fdic.gov/news/board/10Sept27no4.pdf. 2 These amendments follow the comment period applicable to the FDIC's Notice of Proposed Rulemaking ("NPR") issued in May 2010 and Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking issued in December 2009. See Notice of Proposed Rulemaking regarding safe harbor protection for Treatment by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as Conservator or Receiver of Financial Assets Transferred by an Insured Depository Institution in Connection With a Securitization or Participation After September 30, 2010. 75 Fed. Reg. at 27471 – 27487 (5/17/10); http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2010/pdf/2010- 11680.pdf. 3 Under its safe harbor adopted in 2000, the FDIC established that notwithstanding a Bank's becoming subject to FDIC conservatorship or receivership, if the sponsor's asset transfer in a securitization constituted a "sale" under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and the conditions of the safe harbor were met, it would not use its power to repudiate as burdensome the asset transfer agreement employed in the securitization. With the adoption of FAS 166 and 167, sale treatment potentially became more difficult to achieve and the FDIC therefore sought to clarify the requirements of its securitization safe harbor. This memorandum has been prepared by Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP for informational purposes only and does not constitute advertising or solicitation and should not be used or taken as legal advice. Those seeking legal advice should contact a member of the Firm or legal counsel licensed in their state. Transmission of this information is not intended to create, and receipt does not constitute, an attorney-client relationship. Confidential information should not be sent to Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP without first communicating directly with a member of the Firm about establishing an attorney-client relationship. The Rule clarifies that, when acting as conservator or receiver, the FDIC would consent to the making of required payments of principal and interest and other amounts due on securitized obligations, and to certain servicing activity, during the statutory stay period.4 It also sets forth conditions that would allow creditors expedited access to their collateral for securitizations that fail to meet the new accounting standards for off-balance sheet (sale) treatment but otherwise meet the requirements of the Rule.5 In order to get the benefit of the safe harbor under the Rule, securitizations must satisfy, among other things: new risk retention requirements; and increased disclosure and reporting requirements that generally satisfy the requirements of Regulation AB and apply to both registered securitizations and private placements (whether they are traditional private placements or sales pursuant to Rule 144A or Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933)6. In addition, the Rule also imposes significant additional conditions that must be satisfied with respect to residential mortgage-backed securitizations by Banks. Included among these are: 5% reserve for representations and warranties breach repurchase obligations; limitation of up to 6 credit tranches; no external credit support at pool level; 4 The "statutory stay period" refers to the period after which the FDIC is appointed as conservator (45 days) or receiver (90 days) during which the FDIC's consent must be obtained for a secured creditor to exercise remedies with respect to its collateral. See Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1821(e)(13)(C). 5 The Rule clarifies that "the conservator or receiver cannot use its statutory power to repudiate or disaffirm contracts to avoid a legally enforceable and perfected security interest in transferred financial assets". This provision applies if the securitization fails to meet the conditions for sale accounting treatment as long as the securitization otherwise meets the requirement of the Rule. The Rule clarifies that prior to any monetary default or repudiation, the FDIC as conservator or receiver would consent to the making of required payments of principal and interest and other amounts due on the securitized obligations, and to certain servicing activity, during the statutory stay period. In addition, if the FDIC decides to repudiate the securitization transaction, the payment of repudiation damages in an amount equal to the par value of the outstanding obligations on the date of receivership, less any payments of principal received by investors through the date of repudiation, plus unpaid, accrued interest through the date of repudiation in accordance with the contract documents to the extent actually received through payments on the financial assets received through the date of repudiation, will discharge the lien on the securitization assets. See 12 C.F.R. §§ 360.6(d)(4) and (e). 6 Under the SEC's current proposal to amend Regulation AB, the Regulation AB disclosure requirements would not apply to non-registered securitizations that do not rely upon Rule 144A or Regulation D. See our Clients & Friends Memo dated April 20, 2010 entitled "SEC Proposes Significant Enhancements to Regulation of Asset-Backed Securities"; http://www.cadwalader.com/assets/client_friend/042010SEC_Enhancements.pdf. Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP 2 compensation hold-back for rating agencies; third party due diligence report on compliance with applicable legal standards for origination of loans, including that loans were underwritten at the fully indexed rate relying on documented income. The substance of the Rule is in large part unchanged from the proposal set forth in the NPR. Certain of the changes include: shifting the transition safe harbor period end date from September 30, 2010 to December 31, 20107; the adoption of an "auto-conform" provision8, which will automatically conform the requirements of the safe harbor to the risk retention rules that are finalized on an interagency basis under the Dodd-Frank Act, upon the effective date of such rules; the apparent grandfathering of (i) revolving trusts or master trusts (e.g., credit card master trusts) issued on or before September 27, 2010 and (ii) obligations issued under open commitments (e.g., conduits) up to the maximum amount of such commitments as of September 27, 2010 if one or more obligations were issued on or before December 31, 2010; and certain clarifying changes based, in part, upon comments to the NPR. As was the case under the NPR, the Rule will only affect securitizations involving transfers of financial assets by Banks, but not by Bank affiliates, to the extent that such affiliate transfers constitute sales under GAAP or if the assets of such affiliate are not consolidated into the balance sheet of the Bank. In addition, with respect to transactions that qualify as legal and accounting true sales, the FDIC's repudiation power does not enable the conservator or receiver to recover financial assets previously sold for fair value. The repudiation power, as the FDIC acknowledges9, is not an avoiding power that enables the receiver or the conservator to recover assets previously sold and no longer reflected on the books and records of the Bank. Instead, the repudiation power authorizes the 7 With respect to a securitization or participation transaction that occurred on or before December 31, 2010, as long as such transaction complied with sale accounting treatment in effect prior to November 15, 2009 and the FDIC's safe harbor rule adopted in 2000, such transaction would be grandfathered under the Rule. 8 In order to assure consistency between the Rule and these required interagency regulations, the Rule provides that upon the effective date of final regulations required by Section 941(b) of the Dodd-Frank Act, such final regulations shall exclusively govern the requirement to retain an economic interest in a portion of the credit risk of the financial assets under the Rule. 9 Rule at 3. Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP 3 conservator or receiver to breach a contract or lease entered into by the Bank and to suspend performance under such contract.10 In purporting to apply the securitization safe harbor to transactions involving legal and accounting true sales, the FDIC offers comfort to the parties that may be unnecessary. It remains to be seen whether rating agencies will accept legal true sale opinions with respect to securitizations that will be sales for accounting treatment, but do not qualify for safe harbor treatment under the Rule. For a discussion of the NPR, see our Clients and Friends Memo dated May 21, 2010 entitled "FDIC Seeks "Stronger, Sustainable Securitizations" by Imposing Additional Conditions to Eligibility for Securitization Safe Harbor". In the next few days we will circulate an updated Clients and Friends Memo that provides the details and analysis of the Rule. * * * * Please contact any of the following Cadwalader attorneys if you have questions about this memorandum: Charles E. Bryan +1 202 862 2212 email@example.com Peter M. Dodson +1 202 862 2287 firstname.lastname@example.com Angus Duncan +44 (0) 20 7170 8640 email@example.com Mark C.

Chervokas +1 212 504 6835 email@example.com 10 Therefore, for example, the FDIC as conservator or receiver could repudiate servicing obligations or representations and warranties in connection with a completed sale of financial assets, but it could not recover financial assets previously transferred for fair value in a legal and accounting true sale.

Scanning-force microscope based on an optical trap
Optics Letters, Vol. 18, Issue 19, pp. 1678-1680 (1993)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (431 KB)
An optically trapped prolate glass stylus is the force-sensing element of a novel scanning-force microscope. Stylus displacement is detected with the use of the forward scatter of the trapping laser beam. Radiation forces owing to the three-dimensional intensity distribution near the focus permit the stylus to be both positioned with fine control and oriented along the z (optic) axis. Details of 20-nm size appear in traces recorded with a crude stylus in a trap formed with 1064-nm radiation. The spring constant of the optical-force transducer is below 10−4 N/m, which is to be compared with ∼0.1 N/m for typical mechanical cantilevers used in atomic-force microscopy. This gentler technique should improve the sensitivity of scanning-force microscopy for the imaging of soft samples in aqueous media.

"The invitations were exactly what I wanted. They were perfect quality, beautiful, arrived really quickly and were right on time!"
"We ordered this as one of our samples thinking we were really going to choose something else. When we saw it we knew this now would be our choice. We ordered it in blue and it was beautiful. The print was very clear and easy to read."
"My invitations came out beautifully! Working with the designer was essential and I felt so good about ordering online, knowing a professional was reviewing everything before it got printed. At the last minute I changed my mind on envelope colors and they were so easy to work with. My invitations arrived extremely fast and look absolutely perfect. I also ordered reply and enclosure cards and they are amazing too. These are by far the most beautiful designs I found online!"
"Such a beautiful invitation! I love the purple and white on black--it makes it so elegant. We went with the envelopements and love the way they turned out. One thing to remember is to put the tape on the back of the invitation itself, not on the envelopment, as this is the only way the invitation will stay in place."
"I was very pleased with the font and design on the back. I believe invitations should be easy to read and very informative. This invitation is perfect for our guests and fits perfectly with our black/ white/ floral theme!"

BSD News ArchivesPC-BSD 10.0 RC2 Pulls In More ChangesAfter the FreeBSD 10.0 RC3 release earlier in the day, PC-BSD is out with their 10.0 RC2 release as well. PC-BSD 10.0 RC2 pulls in upstream FreeBSD 10.0 changes plus other work of their own as well.
26 December 2013 - PC-BSD 10.0 RC2 FreeBSD 10.0 RC3 Is Here To End Out 2013The third and final FreeBSD 10.0 release candidate is out ahead of the hopeful general availability in early January.
26 December 2013 - FreeBSD 10 - 15 Comments The PlayStation 4 Does Use The FreeBSD Kernel, MonoIn the forum discussion from yesterday's article about Sony using the LLVM/Clang compiler for the PlayStation 4 with its game development kit, some readers questioned whether the PlayStation 4 was really powered by FreeBSD. FreeBSD can be found on the PlayStation 4 along with Mono and other open-source components.
25 December 2013 - FreeBSD Kernel - 61 Comments PulseAudio Gains Greater FreeBSD CompatibilityAs some other interesting open-source audio news this week besides PulseAudio now supporting the systemd journal is that Lennart Poettering's sound server is continuing to be better supported on FreeBSD.
22 December 2013 - PulseAudio FreeBSD - 10 Comments Apple's OS X Launchd Being Ported To FreeBSDThere is new work within the FreeBSD camp to port Apple's launchd from OS X to non-Darwin systems.
18 December 2013 - Open Launch D - 70 Comments FreeBSD 10.0 RC2 Brings Radeon KMS FixesThe second release candidate to FreeBSD 10.0 is now available and with it comes Radeon KMS graphics driver bug-fixes and other cleaned-up and fixed code.
16 December 2013 - FreeBSD 10.0 RC2 FreeBSD 10.0 RC1 Arrives With Driver UpdatesJust shy of a week since the release of FreeBSD 10.0 Beta 4, the first release candidate for this delayed operating system update is now available.
9 December 2013 - FreeBSD 10.0 A Roadmap For FreeBSD Graphics SupportThe latest FreeBSD code (for 10.0) supports not only Intel KMS but also the open-source AMD Radeon driver ported from the Linux kernel. This Intel/Radeon KMS support has since trickled into DragonFlyBSD and other BSD platforms. However, not all is up to par when it comes to graphics support on FreeBSD. Here'a a road-map and test matrix with some other items still on the BSD developers' agenda.
5 December 2013 - FreeBSD Graphics HAMMER2 File-System Gets Stabilization ImprovementsHAMMER2 file-system improvements have landed hot on the heels of the exciting DragonFlyBSD 3.6 release.
4 December 2013 - DragonFlyBSD HAMMER2 - 6 Comments PC-BSD 10 To Ship GNOME 3, Mate, CinnamonBesides FreeBSD 10.0 Beta 4 being out, so is the latest update to the FreeBSD-derived PC-BSD operating system. Besides being based off the FreeBSD 10.0 packages and features, interesting about this PC-BSD update is the GNOME 2 desktop has finally been replaced by GNOME 3, MATE, and Cinnamon desktop alternatives.
3 December 2013 - FreeBSD Derived - 8 Comments FreeBSD 10.0 Beta 4 Has SurfacedThe final beta build ahead of the long-awaited and delayed FreeBSD 10.0 has now been made available.
3 December 2013 - FreeBSD 10.0 Bitrig Is Still Around, But Without An Official ReleaseLast year I wrote about OpenBSD being forked as Bitrig, a new BSD operating system. It's been a year and a half since the project's inception but there still isn't an official release, except there are development snapshots and there is still development work happening.
2 December 2013 - Bitrig BSD - 30 Comments It Doesn't Look Like FreeBSD 10 Will Ship This YearFreeBSD 10.0 was originally slated to ship as stable in November, but that didn't happen and now it doesn't look like this major BSD operating system update will be ready to ship until sometime in 2014.
30 November 2013 - FreeBSD 10.0 DragonFlyBSD 3.6 Does Intel/AMD KMS, DPorts, Better SMPDragonFlyBSD 3.6 is out today and it's an extremely exciting release for the BSD operating system!
25 November 2013 - DragonFlyBSD 3.6 - 16 Comments FreeBSD Is Getting Into The Magazine BusinessThe FreeBSD Foundation is sponsoring a new FreeBSD Journal publication that's about to begin publishing bi-monthly issues concerning BSD.
23 November 2013 - FreeBSD Journal - 4 Comments FreeBSD 10.0 Is Still Running Behind ScheduleThere were plans originally to ship FreeBSD 10.0 as stable in November, but that isn't going to happen. It's not even clear if FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE will be ready to ship before the end of the calendar year, but at least progress is being made and when the release does happen there's a great number of new features.
19 November 2013 - FreeBSD 10.0 - 9 Comments The State Of FreeBSD's Bhyve VirtualizationThis week in California was a one-day FreeBSD Vendor Summit and during the event was an update on the Bhyve virtualization hypervisor that is playing an important role in FreeBSD 10.0.
9 November 2013 - Bhyve GhostBSD 3.5 Supports Xfce 4.10, MATE 1.6, LXDEWhile PC-BSD is a terrific desktop incarnation of FreeBSD, it's mostly focused around the KDE desktop. In the event you happen to be looking for a BSD platform to run underneath the Xfce 4.10 desktop, the MATE 1.6 fork of the GNOME2 packages, or the LXDE desktop environment, GhostBSD is another alternative that's powered by FreeBSD.
7 November 2013 - GhostBSD FreeBSD 10.0 Beta 3 ReleasedThe latest beta release of FreeBSD 10.0 is now available for testing.
5 November 2013 - FreeBSD 10 OpenBSD 5.4 Has New Hardware Support, Intel DRMOpenBSD 5.4 was released this morning to kick off the round of open-source operating systems updating for November. OpenBSD 5.4 brings new and improved hardware support, including finally supporting the TI OMAP3/OMAP4 ARM SoCs and updating the Linux-ported Intel DRM graphics driver.

Anna Nordqvist sneaked a shot ahead of Catriona Matthew to take the lead at the LPGA Classic in Mobile, Alabama, going into the final round.
The Swede moved to 16-under par overall after four back-to-back birdies on the front nine, and six overall, helped her card 66 in the third round on Saturday.
By contrast Matthew, who has led after both of the previous two rounds, struggled on the first nine holes.
The 44-year-old hit three bogeys before recovering with five birdies of her own.
Stacy Lewis' third round 66 kept her in contention, two shots behind Nordqvist in third, while England's Charley Hull leads a three-strong pack one shot further back.
The 18-year-old had been in second place going into the third round, but she finished on 71 for the day, with two birdies and a bogey, to sit three shots behind.
She is joined by Americans Michelle Wie and Jessica Korda after they carded 66 and 69 respectively.
England's Jodi Ewart Shadoff hit 68 to go four shots off the lead, with South Korean trio Ryu So-yeon, Ji Eun-hee and Jenny Shin also on 12-under par overall.

Analyst Blog
Duke Energy Renewable, a unit of Duke Energy Corporation (DUK - Analyst Report), has completed the White Post Solar Project in Beaufort County, North Carolina (N.C.), near Bath and Washington. The project has been built by SunEnergy1, which is a solar design, engineering and construction company based in Mooresville, N.C.
The commercial-scale solar power project has 53,000 panels installed on it. The solar facility with an electric generation capacity of 12.5 megawatt (MW) has the capacity to generate enough electricity to power approximately 3,000 homes. Under a 15-year agreement, Duke will sell the electricity to North Carolina Eastern Municipal Power Agency (NCEMPA).
The addition of this project has more than doubled the solar capacity of Duke Energy in the state. The company already had eight solar farm projects in North Carolina with a total generation capacity of 11 MW. Projects at Carolina include 1-MW Shelby Solar Project, the 1-MW Taylorsville Solar Project, the 1-MW Martins Creek Solar Project,, 5-MW Murfreesboro Solar Project, the 12.5-MW Beaufort County facility and three 1-megawatt commercial solar projects located in or near the town of Murphy, N.C.
Recently, the company had completed the Black Mountain Solar Power Project in Arizona that has an electric generation capacity of 10 megawatt ("MW"). The Black Mountain Solar Power Project consists of 42,000 PV panels. Located in Mohave County, the Black Mountain site is expected to generate clean and renewable energy that is sufficient to power 1,900 homes annually.
The company is providing affordable and clean energy to North Carolina and also continuing its involvement in eastern North Carolina as was done by its merger partner Progress Energy. Moreover, Duke Energy's recent acquisition of Progress Energy Inc. spread the new entity's stable U.S. electricity and gas operations in the Carolinas, Florida, Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio. Key growth drivers of the company include its strong balance sheet and ongoing capital expansion projects.
However, we prefer to remain on the sidelines due to the present unfavorable macro backdrop, predominantly fossil-fuel based generation assets, tepid demand for electricity and pending regulatory cases.
Like its peers, American Electric Power Co. Inc. (AEP - Analyst Report) and FirstEnergy Corp. (FE - Analyst Report), the company presently retains a short-term Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) that corresponds with our long-term Neutral recommendation on the stock.

Great Article. You should have more of these local stories in your columns. We get enough political and crime related stories bombarding us from all directions; this story - by contrast- has the power to make the reader pause and be thankfull for the beautiful natural surroundings in which we live.

I agree with Mike: please keep these stories coming.
We camped up Mount Diablo many times while the kids were growing up, to take in comets, meteor showers, spring flowers or just because it was there, but is is easy to get out of the habit and stories like these are a great reminder of the resources, (natural and otherwise) that we have right on our door step.
Thank you to Glenn and the Danville Weekly :-)

WTF do I do with these? I orded Summits from FH and they ended up never sending me the Summits- When I got a hold of them they had some issue and said they could sub the summit that they were now out of for nugget. What good nugget recipies are out there?
You are going to use them mainly as a bittering hop. You could probably use them in just about any American style beer. A source I just read catagoriezes them as herbal and a little spicy.
I see *rubs chin*
+1 on bittering - I used them for a pale ale bittering and it turned out great. After smelling them and thinking about it - I wish I kept a little aside and did some aroma/flavor additions with them. In fact, my brother just moved back up from Missouri and I had him over for a brew day and was showing him ingredients and he liked the aroma from the Nugget better than the Willamette.
You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline - it helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer. --Frank Zappa
Maybe since finding Summits right now is damn near impossible I will use Nuggets for my Denali IPA in the recipie section
I just brewed an all-Nugget PA/APA weekend before last. I bought a pound of them, and was using so little for bittering hops, I thought I'd just see what else they could do. The gravity sample tasted great after a week -- fairly spicy, just as described. I'll probably do a little dry-hopping with them, too, just for grins. Will report back when done.
All Nugget IPAs work really well.
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!" "I would like to die on Mars, just not on impact." Elon Musk
i have some nugget rhizomes on the way, so it makes me very happy to read this
Primary: Yardhop Nugget IPA Primary: nada Secondary: nada Bottle Conditioning: nada Drinking: O.G.G. E.S.B., Isabella's Power Hour IPA v3.0, Sunday Song Stout Cellared: Home-Grown Nugget Pale Ale, Isabella's Power Hour IPA v2.0, Tangelo Hefeweizen, Isabella's Power Hour IPA, DoubleHop ESP ExtraSpecialPorter Distant Memory: Lady Chesapeake Brown Ale, First Pale Ale, Grandpa's Irish Stout
I had a buddy buy like 10 oz. of nugget for 10 bucks at a small LHBS, we figure they were a couple years old....smell like doo doo. Anyway, use for bittering in just about anything, so long as your boil the heck out of em.
I use an oz of nugget pellets in my american stout, with willamette flavor hops and I like the result very much.
