Post subject: JGWebTracker Looks Great
From the '3rd Party Software' department, posted by Excelsior on 2001-12-01 11:07:09 (adjusted).
I noticed that v1.3 of the JGWebTracker server had been released. So I decided to see what improvements there were. Let me say that 1.3 is excellent. So excellent, that I decided to run a 24/7 server so you may poll from me rather than from the JOSSH page.
Make sure that after you set up, change to US Server in the Server Menu. Then OPTIONS/UPDATE METHODS/USE A JGWT SERVER and OPTIONS/SERVER OPTIONS/(input IP Number and port)
My server IP is 22.214.171.124 on port 9119(default port) and polls JOSSH for updates every two minutes.
Download the client from
GREAT JOB Slopey and MrFlump! This is the replacement for the old JGTracker! Bhruic is surely missed by all!
Well, thanks for the kind words! I'm sure Slopey will be happy as well when he gets a chance to read them!
There is a new version of the server coming out in the next day or so, I just need to get some extra things added in to it and tidy up some of my code. (It now counts the number of people connected correctly :smile: )
All, please note that there myself and Slopey are hosting an EU server at 126.96.36.199 (Port 9119)
Also, there is a list of servers running listed at
I suppose I'd better point out that MrFlump is my other internet name from playing Worms:Armageddon and WWP :smile:

Hi guy,
I tried installing your JGWT (and Paths... that yours too?), but somehow it is not working. It says it needs to replace outdated files, which I let it do. Then it says it needs to reboot, which I do. When my system is back, the directory where I ran the Setup.exe is just the same as before (i.e., setup.exe and the .cab and setup.lst). What am I doing or missing? Note that if I run it again, again it says my files are out of date. I'm using Win98 on this PC.
TIA -- Mike
@ Max - if youre getting the error installing then that's due to the Microsoft Runtimes (which are a pain). Try downloading the Runtimes from Microsoft or download.com and then after installing, re-run the Tracker setup.
Also, there's a sweet tax equation discovery here:
Tax equation discovered?

The only problem I've found with WebTracker is that the Trucker utility crashes when I try to use it, something about a VB6 overflow

TRI pilot Slopey just sent in the following story:
The Tracker and the Server are now updated to reflect the addition of the InSight and Displacer. EU users should note that they arent listed in the text files yet so will be shown as stock �0� everywhere.
All EU & US pilots running a server should upgrade immediately to Server version 2.0.1
All pilots using the Tracker need to download version 1.41 to connect to the new servers. Not too much new in the version:
- Fixed the nasty wininet.dll problems :/
- Added the InSight and Displacer
- Updated the station distances table to fill in the blanks
BTW, my XP laptop killed itself a few days ago so whoever it was who emailed me with their new US Server address - please do so again! (if you run a server, mail me an I�ll list you on slopey.com). Also, who suggested the Ship config thing? (And ColinR - I�ve added your total mass column to the BPC - see version 1.5
As usual the files are availiable on
(or wormsmart.clanpages.com/jumpgate - West�s Mirror.) NB: BT Internet FTP is down so I�ve hosted it on geocities for the moment, my apologies for the banner.
BTW - Im looking for a list of artifacts so I can add a checklist into the tracker - anyone got a complete one? (Hint Hint, ND, MG Staff??? *cough*)

Also NEW SERVER RELEASE - if you are running a server please upgrade NOW! ;)
You can get both from
If you just need the EXE then you can get it from the link at the bottom of this post...
Hi All,
Due to the copious amounts of alchol consumed over the last few days, here is a maintenance release for the Tracker ;) This adds/fixes the following functionality...
Bug Fixes:
* Commodity components are now correct (as per US JOSSH)
* Fiancier has been added
* Squad Center now uses the .de pages for EU as the english ones are hosed
* Fixed a bug which gave an error on the Trucker Classic
* All Commodities are now displayed on the initial load
* CSV Export from the Squad Center now works properly
New Stuff:
* Added HOME and END key macros - you can now have 36 Custom Key Macros!!
* The Squad center now shows Online & Honour Guard Pilots (online are highlighted in Blue, HG have an Icon)
* The BPC now includes "Any Sol", "Any Oct", "Any Quant" and "Any Unreg" selections for those hard to find inter-faction cargo runs. Idea submitted by Rich (dunno his pilot name!) Thx!
There we go. Over the next few weeks, I'll be working on the Palm Pilot and WinCE versions of the tracker - and also Tracker 2.0 which will be a major upgrade to coincide (probably) with Episode 2. Also jumpgatenetwork.com will be closing and reopening as your one-stop economy source for JG :)
As always, comments and suggestions (and if youre that way inclined, a few thou credits ;) ) to
Sorry bout the recent rash of upgrades, but sometimes nothing goes right!!
Any problems, mail me at

where can i find a MSI program for WIN XP.
When i downloaded JGwebtracker to a win xp computer it won't let me install it, i need a msi reader or installer, where can i get this?

An .msi file is a Microsoft Installer file. You should be able to simply double-click on it to start the install, or Right-Click, Install. No additional files should be required, as WinXP ship with Installer 2.0 already afaik.

Well, you should try: a} re-downloading the file to verify you didn't get a truncated file, b} checking out support.microsoft.com for information on "microsoft installer fail" type issues.
Give me a little more info; do you get "install" on the right-click menu? Do you have administrative perms on your XP box? Can you install any other .msi packages? (You can probably just search google to find some other anything that is packaged as an .msi)

JGWebtracker will be updated soon(tm). JumpgateWeb is updated but the inventory.txt on JOSSH is not showing the new items yet. All the trackers at -=MACK=- Station are gone since my host disapeered. Efforts are underway to rebuild. Frag has an updated tracker as well as Ackers put one up. These existing threads should help you.

Updated Tracker
Im working on updating the tracker at the moment - should be out in the early part of next week (barring RL issues).
In it will be all the new commods/equipment/stuff as usual plus the Squad Management Module which some of you may/may not have played with before.
Its also setup to download information from a POS registry. As this isnt working (as yet) from JOSSH there'll be an additional update to cover this in time.
I also have provision for a POS registry at slopey.com but its not running yet as I'd prefer to use the ND/MG ones which obviously are updated directly from the game. Should this prove popular we'll also integrate this into the tracker server so that a "map" of availiable public published pos's is availiable in the tracker.
If anyone has some last minute features they'd like added to the tracker - drop me a mail at
and I'll see if I can add them in before the next release (or for the POS maintenance release).

Hi All,
JGWebTracker 1.60 is now availiable for your edification and enjoyment. Get it from
Important notes for this release are:
* Full POS Support BUT until JOSSH is fixed the EU POS will be blank. Look at US Server to see what youre missing.
* NO TrackerServer support in 1.60+. Its too much work at present, if people really really need it we'll put it back in. For now, use Web updating.
Also added Squad Manager and Economy Rules Modules.
Read the Readme.rtf in the installation directory please.
Any bugs, send em to me at
Theres bound to be a few but I thought I'd get it out in the open (a la ND) and catch em later as I dont have time for testing right now :)
Known issues:
* New ship info isnt in yet - didnt have time
* POS File loader reports 24% complete instead of 100%. Dont worry - it does work - it just gets the numbers wrong! ;)
And remember and uninstall 1.55 first if youre using that then install 1.6 :)

Ok, If youre having wininet.dll problems on Win98SE, you'll need to download and replace the wininet.dll in windows/system32 with the one from
Then delete the tracker installation you downloaded earlier and get the new one from
And that should be it again. Any problems, email me and I'll get em sorted asap.

It should be noted as excellent as Webtracker is as tracking stuff(tm) its lists of materials needed to make a given item are not 100% correct (without having had much time to check the new version yet, I can only quote Purgatories off the top of my head as an example).
I would suggest that when trying to determine what commodities are needed to make a given item that you cross reference with Timksi's Shipper Widget.
(aaaagh, I hate being critical of something that is otherwise excellent I can spend an afternoon just watching Webtracker update following the ebb and flow of commodities, fascinating stuff).[/url]

is this from personal experience with attempting to construct things, or going by what JOSSH says? (sorry, needed to ask that. you might know your source, but i can't)
and what makes you think critiquing something ruins the <insert enjoyment>? are you surprised you can still have fun with something you've just critiqued? *g* pop goes another black&white stereotype, eh?
la la. actually, to tell you the truth the only 3rd party program i've used consistently is JGpaths. period

Personal experience? yes, couldn't tell you what it was (may well have been purgs, but I do recall other items do not have the correct raw materials listed correctly). I dont tend to use JOSSH, it is far too cumbersome. Unless you *know* that what you have in your hold is the correct materials to make item <y>, on EU at least I would double check using Timskis Shipper widget (
if there is a mistake in there I have yet to find it and it is also a lot simpler to track backwards if you find a tier 2 isnt available and want to know what it needs.
and what makes you think critiquing something ruins the <insert enjoyment>? are you surprised you can still have fun with something you've just critiqued? *g* pop goes another black&white stereotype, eh?
Nope I just find Slopey a rather agreeable chap, think that webtracker is a fabby tool at tracking commods (and all the other gubbins it can be used for), just dont trust its materials list if I cant remember what a given item requires. Not to mention its been written for the enjoyment of all for no personal gain etc etc. And given my contribution to JG is trolling the forums I just dont like criticising tools of this nature if I dont have to. :D

ah, but if you love the tool and use it, don't you think that feedback is the highest flattery? (specifically constructive feedback, though "weeeee" makes one feel pretty good too)
but i'll take constructive criticism any day of the week over "weeeeee" *g* that's the stuff that puts hair on yer chest. even one laced with "colourful idioms" and references to my ancestry. *giggles like schoolgirl*

True, but I'd rather do it in a mail or an irc chat or something than sit in "public" doing it. *shrugs* no harm done Slopeys not stormed into the forums shouting "you slagged off my baby, you bastard!" and its a minor quibble compared to all the things it *is* excellent at (squad manangement for example in 1.60 is superb).

JGWebTracker update - added Proxy support & SQM changes
Hi All,
A new version (still 1.60 though) of the tracker is ready for your edification and enjoyment (definately dll issue free this time )
New stuff:
* Added Proxy Support - enter serverip and port and proxxxyyy baby! (format is serveriport ie myproxy.com:1234 or 127.0.0.1:81) - See Options -> Proxy Options.
* (User Request): Reworked the Squad Manager to allow User Sortable columns
The Column order is saved when closing the form. You can also now sort the data in the columns. Column width is coming soon (couldnt get it to work atm).
* Export to CSV added for information in the Right hand pane of the SQM, so you can do analysis/storage in an external app if necess.
Fixed Stuff:
Lists - Size & Access Sorting Fixed
Lists - POS Size/Access now separate list columns
BPC - Fixed Subscript '9' Error in BPC (I think!)
Lists - Added DSS1 to 4, Poor to Perfect Arties
Items - Corrected the Solrain Stout missile requirement
Items - Corrected a miss typed Engine Arti
As always, please download from slopey.com and uninstall the first one - IMPORTANT - if you are using the SQM please ENSURE you copy all your snapshots out of the tracker directory before un-installing - copy them back when you've installed the new version (they have a .dat extension).
Any problems, bugs, feature requests, please get in touch at
Future development:
At the moment, next up will be -
- More POS information, possibly a quick and simple "Upkeep" manager so you know how much your POS will cost ya.
- More SQM additions including relative stat graphing
- Adding the stats of the EP2 ships - I'll definately try and do that shortly.
Anyways, thats it for now.

I've featured a story from Alexander Jablokov here before, but this one cried out to be shared too. What can I say? I like meta sometimes. It might just be time to give in and pick up his short story collection.
You're waiting.
You're waiting for the Awful Thing. Cheery people from the future always have an Awful Thing. That's what makes them interesting. To you.
We are soulless zombies living a life of manufactured illusion.
Our pleasurable lives depend on the oppression and torture of a small child, or genetically modified subhumans, or cognitively boosted, deeply suffering rodents.
Our lives are meaningless because of their very ease, and we wait for a release of plague, or radiation, or giant carnivorous creatures from another dimension to give them meaning again. We might even be waiting for one of you to time travel to our own time and start murdering us.
Our machines are sad because they want nothing more than to be human, like us, a blessing we withhold.
We are not humans at all, but telepathic insects that are just pretending to be us.
We desperately envy the wonderful vibrant scrappy life of your own era.
Sorry. We think about a lot of things, but how to be interesting to you is not one of them. None of these things is true.

URISPAS FOR SALE, MACOMB, Ill. — Jim Molinari wasn't sure he would ever get to 300 wins as a head coach, URISPAS wiki. URISPAS interactions, Everywhere Molinari has gone, from Northern Illinois to Bradley to now Western Illinois, purchase URISPAS for sale, Is URISPAS safe, it was his job to turn a program around.
Thursday's 79-61 win over South Dakota was a milestone moment for the veteran coach, after URISPAS. Buy generic URISPAS, The emotion was there when it was all over.
"I knew it would take me a while to get there," he said, URISPAS FOR SALE. "I see my role in coaching as a builder, URISPAS used for. URISPAS results, I've never been at a place where it wasn't a building project."
Molinari had great success at Northern Illinois and Bradley, but what he's done at Western Illinois has probably been his greatest work, URISPAS for sale. Cheap URISPAS, He took a program that didn't even make it to the Summit League tournament in his first year to a share of the conference title last season. The Leathernecks were oh-so-close to getting to the NCAA tournament in 2012, where can i buy URISPAS online, URISPAS pics, and the back-to-back appearances in the CBI are the first postseason trips for the program since it moved to the NCAA Division I level. URISPAS FOR SALE, This year was one that Molinari said was "recycling." Gone were seniors Ceola Clark, Terell Parks, Jack Houpt and Don McAvoy. This was a young team that was going to be tested by a brutal nonconference schedule that took the Leathernecks to plenty of out-of-the-way spots in the first two months of the season, URISPAS interactions. URISPAS duration, But four games into the Summit League schedule, the Leathernecks (8-11 overall) are 2-2, URISPAS mg, URISPAS results, one game out of first place. There's a long way to go, URISPAS alternatives, Fast shipping URISPAS, but being in the mix with an inexperienced team shows what Molinari and this mixture of youngsters and veterans have accomplished so far.
This team, no prescription URISPAS online, Order URISPAS online overnight delivery no prescription, like the last two, is embracing Molinari's philosophy of a strong defense, URISPAS reviews. After every home game, every player talks about defense and what it means, even freshmen like guards Garret Covington and Jabari Sandifer, URISPAS FOR SALE. Doses URISPAS work, "I've told the players, defense is not the heart of the team, URISPAS maximum dosage, URISPAS blogs, it's the soul of the team," Molinari said, URISPAS pharmacy. Order URISPAS from United States pharmacy, "We played to our identity (tonight). We played great defense."
Molinari wanted this win — the Leathernecks lost back-to-back road games to South Dakota State and North Dakota State last week, URISPAS photos, What is URISPAS, so he's been sitting on No. 299 for a while, URISPAS used for. URISPAS FOR SALE, The Leathernecks were active in this game, taking after the energy from their coach on the sidelines. URISPAS gel, ointment, cream, pill, spray, continuous-release, extended-release, Molinari stalked all night — "It was like I was riding Secretariat out there," he quipped — and he was still all over the place in the final minutes, when Western Illinois had pretty much put this game away.
With 18 seconds left on the clock, and Covington at the free-throw line, many of the 2,268 in attendance gave Molinari a standing ovation. It was applause in appreciation of a great career, but also an appreciation for what the coach has done for the program.
The milestone has been achieved, but there's still work to be done. The Leathernecks are home on Saturday to face Denver in another key league game. It's a "Whiteout" night at Western Hall, but Molinari isn't sure of what he's going to wear.
"I'll have to find something special," he said, smiling.

Under the bridge: 2010 Toronto Graffiti throwback
Lately I've been clearing up disk space on my computer and with over 77k photos on one of my drives that means there's a ton of images to sort through and some of which have never been uploaded. Today I ended up going through a bunch of pics from 2009/2010 and keeping up with my last post I'm going to post some more Toronto graffiti. Below you'll find a mix and blend of works by: Ren, Kwest, Sight, Kasm and Bacon (these photos were shot on April 19th 2010). Over the next few weeks while I thin out my hard drive I'll post more graffiti pics, lord knows I have a ton of them. Enjoy!More+

Posted on August 25, 2010
One of the things to which I attribute the success of the Second Annual 25th Book fair is the number of focused collections we had. We are seeing some collections come in already, and among these is a collection of series fiction.
Oh, did I mention that already? Let me check Monday's column. No, no: that was about children's series books. I also received, entirely independently, someone's collection of TV series books.
In the trade, these are known as tie-ins. These are not novels that were turned into movies or TV series, like Martin Caidin's Cyborg, which became The Six Million Dollar Man, or Thorne Smith's The Passionate Witch, which someone turned into Bewitched. No, these are TV series which became novels: stories commissioned by the owners of the series, either based on episodes or just brand new rales featuring the characters. This kept up excitement about the series when you couldn't watch it. (This was before YouTube or NetFlix or even before videocassettes, kids.)
This collection doesn't have EVERY series ever novelized, but it has plenty of 'em, both memorable and forgotten: I Spy, Bonanza, Mission Impossible, The Man from UNCLE, Lucan, The Invisible Man, Marcus Welby M.D., The Young Rebels, Time Tunnel, Star Trek, Star Trek: the Animated Voyages, Rat Patrol, Garrison's Guerillas, The Twilight Zone, Hawk, Get Smart, The Flying Nun, The Facts of Life and so on and so on.
Collectible? What do you collect, friend? If you're a Burt Reynolds fan, don't you need novels from his cop show, Hawk? If you're interested in how the Old West was portrayed in popular culture, you need these Bonanza novels, don't you?
Oh, you meant collectible AND worth money? Well, that all depends. Some of these series were brief, both on screen and on the page, but others went on and on: Dark Shadows and Man from Uncle ran to a couple of dozen volumes each. And it is a peculiarity of the buying public that Man from UNCLE #1 sold hundreds of thousands of copies, whereas #23 in the series didn't get quite so much attention. So sometimes the higher numbers are the ones worth money, as opposed to the trend in, say, comic books, where for a time the industry concentrated on publishing ONLY first issues of comics.
You need to check the author as well. There were men who specialized in novelizations, whose names you'll see over and over: William Johnston, one of the kings of the novelization (Get Smart, Happy Days, F Troop, Welcome Back, Kotter, etc.), Michael Avallone, one of the great fiction machines (Boris Karloff Presents, The Patridge Family, Cannonball Run, A Woman Named Golda), Robert Weverka, Marilyn Ross, etc. But if you hunt, and do a little research behind the house names, you can find people who are famous for other work, and their escapades in TV tie-in fiction has a little added value. If you collect science fiction writers of note, you'll want Fred Saberhagen's Star Trek and E.C. Tubbs's Space: 1999 books. Mystery writer Walter Wager, under the name John Tiger, wrote seven I Spy novels, while Richard Deming, under his own name, did both Mod Squad and Dragnet. The highly collectible hardboiled paperback veteran Harry Whittington did one of The Man from UNCLE books. And even the wildly collectible Jim Thompson, famous for his psychopaths and sociopaths, indulged toward the end of his career, turning out a novel for Ironside.
Their best stuff? Maybe not, but surely worth a look. (Every now and then, by the way, I hear that Michael Avallone's books about private eye Ed Noon might be turned into a series, which begs the question of who will write the novelizations. Michael Avallone also wrote gothic romances under the name Edwina Noone. Really, once you start looking into this stuff, you can't stop. But that's what the Book Fair is here for: to feed your addictions.)

Long-distance hiker and walker Liz Thomas on the West Avalon Stairway in Echo Park. Photo by Robert Inman
Liz Thomas' love for hiking and the outdoors has found her trekking along some nation's most well known hiking and walking trails, including the 2,181-mile long Appalachian Trail and the 2,650 mile Pacific Crest Trail. But on Monday, Thomas, who is described as an "adventure athlete," was walking through Echo Park and Elysian Heights in preparation for an urban trek across the public stairways and streets of Los Angeles. Monday's stair climbing was a warm up for her attempt to walk a route that includes 300 stairways from Pasadena to Santa Monica and San Pedro. The 175-mile route is modeled on the 300-stairway course that Eagle Rock resident Robert Inman and two urban hikers took about a year ago.
It took Inman's group 9-1/2 days to complete the journey last year. Thomas plans to do it in five days. "The idea of a long urban walk in Los Angeles on our public stairways has caught her attention and she is out this way," said Inman.
Inman, who joined Thomas for part of her trek through Elysian Heights on Monday, provided a list of some of the communities and number of stairways that await Thomas:
- Pasadena and nearby communities: 11 stairways
- Eagle Rock, Adams Hill, Verdugo Village: 14 stairways
- Glassell Park-Mt Washington: 18 stairways
- Highland Park, Garvanza, Hermon 31 stairways
- Montecito Heights, Lincoln Heights, El Sereno: 26 stairways
- Downtown, City Terrace, Boyle Heights: 13 stairways
- Greater Echo Park, Elysian Park area, Solano Canyon, Temple Beaudry 42 stairways
- Greater Silver Lake 61 stairways
- Franklin Hills – Los Feliz 21 stairways
- Hollywood Hills: 27 stairways
- Westside, Palisades, Santa Monica area 27 stairways
- South Bay, Palos Verdes, San Pedro 22 stairways
Thomas begins to plan her journey on Thursday. "Keep your eyes open for Liz and welcome her to our magnificent city," Inman said.

So here are the the things I have done so far and some I expect to get done before the new release:
- Port to Qt4: Done. Not as hard as I suspected it would be. Now it will be possible to install it on Windows. I also did a lot improvements on the GUI, such as fixing bugs in the layouts, managed to figure out how to update the GUI (progress display) while the model was running, etc.
- Wrote a GUI based .epg editor. Models are defined in Epigrass through a configuration file which is parsed by the ConfigParser module. To minimize the chances of users messing up the syntax of the file, I cooked up a configuration editor from scratch, which can be run independently of Epigrass to create an edit the .epg files.
- Real-time visualization window: Partially written. I am trying to put together a map animation of the simulation which would run on a separate thread using Pyglet OpenGl interface. I am currently trying to figure out how to do OpenGL viewport auto-resize, so that I can load different maps and have they fit the window. If anyone knows how to do that, please tell me (I am learning OpenGL as I go).
- Update Epigrass's KML output to generate time-animations of the map: Planning stage. This will require to generate multiple layers of the map, one for each time-step. I will probably have to generate a KMZ (a zipped version of a KML) instead of a KML in order to keep the file size from becoming very large. Most of the code is done since I will just re-use the KML-generation code, and call the layer generator multiple times, changing the colors of the polygons at each step.
- Re-write the simulation scheduler to allow the parallelization of the simulation via parallel-python (PP): Planning stage. the coding part will be easy, but I expect a lot of debugging to deal with all the dependency code which needs to be declared when creating the separate jobs with PP. Moreover, I have no idea if I will stumble on unpicklable stuff. I just hope that if I do, I can find a way around the problem.
- Revamp the setup.py, to conform with the latest version of setuptools. It's been broken for a while...
- Maybe try Pyinstaller to release single file executables, and avoid dependency hell, at install time. Many dependencies are not easy_installable yet...

handcrafted backpack Conkca leather London Dark tan 'Kendal' Description
J210 News Photography and J213 Advanced Documentary Photography are taught every semester, along with a workshop-oriented class that gives students practical experience shooting and and composing photo essays. These courses are integrated with reporting and writing courses, allowing collaboration on reporting assignments and publications. In the advanced course, students gain experience working on an in-depth visual storytelling project, and focus on developing a personal style. The advanced class creates intensive in-depth documentary projects. Students also edit, design and publish the Center for Photography's annual student magazine, "realeyes."
"Studying photography at the J-School goes deeper than getting to know your way around a camera. We explored the role of documentary photography and its relevance in today's intensely competitive photo environment. We learned how to look after the business side too, including the costs of doing business, grants, copyright and most importantly, making contacts, which is critically important to a professional photographer. But making great photographs is also about passion. There is ample room at the J-School to exercise that creative drive—and not just in photo classes. Taking reporting classes as a photographer and learning to report and tell stories visually proved to be immensely valuable and fun."
—Mark Murrman, MJ 2004, freelance photojournalist
Students can use an array of 35 mm camera lenses and medium format equipment provided by the J-School.
Each year, students also have the opportunity to meet and work with master photographers. Sebastião Salgado, Don McCullin, Eugene Richards, Susan Meiselas, Paul Fusco, Catherine Leroy, Antonion Kratochvil and Marc Riboud have visited the J-School, conducted workshops and participated in public lectures and/or exhibited at our Center for Photography gallery.

Onomea Bay: A Geological and Human History
E ola mau, e Pele e! `Eli'eli kau mai! Long life to you, Pele! -Hawaiian Goddess of Volcanoes
The Hawaiian Islands are actually a chain of volcanic mountains, described by Mark Twain as "the loveliest fleet of islands to sail in any ocean." Twain was more than flattering in his analogy; he was also scientifically correct. The Hawaiian Islands are slowly moving through the Pacific Ocean in a northwesterly direction, the result of a phenomenon known as plate tectonics.
Geologists have determined that the Hawaiian Islands lie on the upper crust of the Pacific continental plate. The plate is the size of half the North Pacific Ocean, and it literally floats on the heavier magma of the earth's core. A crack in the continental plate leaks lava to the upper surface. This is the "hot spot" that has created the entire Hawaiian archipelago. Lava pours out of the ocean floor and piles up as hardened magma until the newly formed land reaches above sea level.
Today "hot spots" still smoke on the Big Island of Hawaii, the youngest island in the chain, just as they did millions of years ago. The Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is very active; molten lava flows down to the ocean, creating more new land on the island of Hawaii. The next Hawaiian island, named Loihi, is a mountain of fresh lava slowly growing on the sea floor southeast of the Big Island. In several thousand years it will rise above the ocean surface, and another Hawaiian island will be added to the chain.
The Shaping of Onomea Bay
Over the millennia, erosion has been one of the primary forces shaping Onomea Bay. Onomea and Alakahi streams have carved the valley, while winds and waves have cut the lava cliffs. Earthquakes and tsunamis have rocked the coast, causing radical changes in the face of the landscape.
The most notable work of the elements was Onomea Arch, carved from the cliffs by restless waterpower. Legend has it that King Kamehameha threw his spear to create this huge tunnel in the rock. A famous landmark, the arch attracted visitors to Onomea Bay long before the Garden was established. Onomea Arch fell during an earthquake in 1956 after standing for thousands of years. Today the fallen arch appears as a wide crevice in the cliff on the north side of Onomea Bay, but this favorite Hilo landmark is preserved in antique postcards which recall its glory from the turn of the century.
The Bay's Early History
Long ago, Onomea Bay was a fishing village for the early Hawaiians. Old stone walls in the Garden today were created by early settlers to make terraces for growing taro and sugar cane.These stone walls kept the land on the slope from eroding into the stream.
Onomea Bay served as one of the Big Island's first natural landing areas for sailing ships. In the early 1800s the fishing village, known as Kahali'i, became a shipping port, first importing materials to construct the Onomea Sugar Mill and then exporting raw sugar. The settlers were a mixture of Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, and Filipinos who came here to work in the sugar cane fields and build the Onomea Sugar Mill.
In the hills above the Garden are relics of the Onomea Sugar Mill. Rusty iron trestles and flumes once stood where hand-cut cane was floated to the mill. Sacks of unrefined sugar were then loaded on donkeys and taken down a trail to the docks.
Another remnant of this era is a Portuguese bake oven, discovered on Cook Pine Trail when the jungle was being cleared. Made of heat resistant rocks, the igloo-like structure was used to bake bread on a flat shovel.
After the Onomea Sugar Mill ceased operations, the early settlers gradually moved away. Later, part of the valley was a lilikoi, or passionfruit farm. Some cattle were grazed in the valley as well. A row of stately old palms that lines the narrow scenic route was planted by the plantation supervisor from the Onomea Sugar Mill. Wild banana, mango, coconut, and guava trees planted by the early settlers have reached towering heights and still grow here today.
Onomea Valley was deserted in the early 1900s, and the vegetation grew so densely that few signs of former habitation could be seen. The last resident of the valley was Lono Waikii. Legend has it that Lono's wife would get angry at his all-day fishing and drinking adventures and hide his whiskey bottles in a banyan tree. The tree grew up around the bottles, where they can still be seen today.
In Harmony with Nature
The early settlers removed all of the valley's native vegetation. There remained only some tall coconut palms, which now are over 150 years old. The tall mango and monkeypod trees in the valley today have grown up since 1850.
Dan and Pauline Lutkenhouse have transformed Onomea Valley from a dense jungle to a pristine tropical paradise. Plant specimens have been gathered from tropical jungles around the world and planted by hand. The entire valley is treated as a nature preserve. To protect the environment, no cars or tour buses are allowed in the valley.
Visitors marvel at the giant rainforest trees that form the dense overstory canopy of Onomea Valley. These include 100-foot tall mango trees that were probably planted in the late 1800s; breadfruit trees that date from the early 1900s, with their huge, speckled green fruit; and towering coconut palms that are constantly pruned to protect visitors from falling fruit. Low-growing taro plants can also be seen, carryovers from village life at the turn of the century when starchy poi, made from taro roots, was a staple of the Hawaiian diet.
In the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden, exotic plants gathered from distant tropical rainforests grow side by side with native Hawaiian plants. Together they form a spectacular living work of art in the only tropical botanical garden in the United States that is situated on an ocean coast.

- Mode of Use: Remove This Item V&P Plate Washer
- Well Bottom Shape
Magnetic Plates for Microplates
V&P has a large variety of different magnetic bead separation devices for your microplates. It is important to match the right magnet plate with your microplate. If you need assistance or have any questions about our magnet plates please feel free to contact us.
There are many different microplate manufacturers and each of them incorporates unique structural features into their plates. Features of the skirt, the shape of the wells, to the injection "gates" under the microplate. These are all things that we consider when choosing the right magnetic bead separation device for your microplate.
We also consider the magnetic beads or particles you are using. Depending on the size of the beads, and also the concentration, we may suggest a specific product for your application. Naturally, larger magnetic bead particles will separate faster than smaller particles. The larger particles have greater mass which aids in the magnetic bead separation.
Bead Separation Location:
Depending on your protocol, you may want the beads to be collected on the side of the wells, or maybe directly in the center. We have several magnetic bead separation devices that will place the beads in different locations. We look at the shape of the wells, volumes, and how you will be removing the supernatant.
Types of Separation:
-More commonly, magnetic beads are separated and then washed using pipette tips. By using pipette tips, it is important to keep the beads away from the pipette. This is why bead location is so important.
-FlicknBlot - V&P also has a line of hand-held magnetic bead separation devices. These devices allow for the microplate to be fixed to the magnet plate. You can then pick up the entire device and "Flick" out the supernatant. This is a fast, economical way of removing supernatant from your microplates while still retaining your magnetic beads.
-While the more common method is to remove the supernatant from your beads, we also have the VP 407AM-N that will remove the beads from the microplate. Using a PCR plate as a shield, you can use our handheld magnetic device to move the beads from one microplate to another. This will save you time and money as no pipette tips are needed.

Tomas Tatar earns first career AHL hat trick in Griffins' 5-1 win over BulldogsNHL.com @NHLdotcom
HAMILTON - Tomas Tatar had chased a hat trick many times before, only to fall a goal short.
That hunt came to an end on Friday, as the Grand Rapids Griffins' forward led his team to a convincing 5-1 win over the Hamilton Bulldogs in American Hockey League action.
"This was one of those games where the puck is always following you," said Tatar. "I've had a few tries at a hat trick but I've always missed the last one.
"This is my first, and it's a nice achievement. If I keep going, it might come again. You never know."
Gustav Nyquist and Luke Glendening also scored for the Griffins (25-14-4), and Petr Mrazek made 21 saves in the win.
Frederic St. Denis scored the lone goal for the Bulldogs (14-22-6), while Cedrick Desjardins stopped 21 of 26 shots.
Grand Rapids got off to a quick start in the first, opening the scoring at 1:22 through the recent AHL All-Star Nyquist.
The winger received the puck from teammate Nathan Paetsch and carried it through the centre of the ice as Bulldog defenders backed off. He had no shortage of space to work with, and fired a wrist shot that beat Desjardins through the legs.
Gabriel Dumont nearly scored an equalizer for Hamilton seven minutes into the period, when he one-timed a cross-ice pass from the bottom of the circle only to be denied by the glove of the sliding Mrazek.
The Griffins doubled their lead with 11 seconds to play in the first, when Tatar turned a routine cycle into a goal. Centre Joakim Andersson knocked the puck behind the net from the far boards to Tatar, who spotted Desjardins off of his right post and alertly backhanded the puck past the goaltender.
Hamilton's setback late in the first period didn't seem to faze the Bulldogs as they opened the second quickly. Michael Bournival forced a smart pad save from Mrazek a minute and a half into the period.
The Bulldogs got their first goal of the game four minutes later, when St. Denis walked the blue-line from the left and released a slap shot through traffic that fooled Mrazek.
Momentum had clearly swung in Hamilton's favour when Louis Leblanc was denied an equalizing goal by Mrazek's right post with nine minutes to play in the second.
The play was reviewed by officials, with the original ruling of "no goal" upheld.
Leblanc rued his team's inability to take their chances in the second, when the course of the game could have been radically changed.
"We should have done more," said Leblanc. "We had a power play and I hit the crossbar. I think that was a turning point. If I score that, it's a tied game."
The Griffins weathered the Bulldogs' pressure for much of the period, and Tatar struck for a second time to restore Grand Rapids' two-goal lead at 15:43 of the second. The Detroit Red Wings prospect was once again set up by Andersson, and beat Desjardins with a wrist shot from the right.
Grand Rapids was content to sit back and defend its lead in the third, effectively stifling Hamilton's offence.
Leblanc had one of the Bulldogs' few chances to score with 12:21 to play, when he streaked through the middle and tipped a pass toward Mrazek that the Griffins' goaltender calmly caught.
Grand Rapids added an insurance goal at 15:45, when an unguarded Glendening received a cross-ice pass to the left of Desjardins and snapped a quick wrist shot over his shoulder and into the roof of the net.
Tatar completed his hat trick at 17:31 of the third, when Nathan Paetsch's shot deflected to the winger and he corralled the puck and fired past the flat-footed Desjardins for his team-leading 19th goal of the season.
The winger believed that his team's performance on Friday was an encouraging way to restart the season after the week-long All-Star break.
"I went to Mexico and enjoyed myself, so this is a perfect way to come back, not just for me but for the whole team," said Tatar.
"After the break, you're excited to play the next game, and this is a really nice way to start."
Meanwhile, for Leblanc and the Bulldogs, the result was a step in the wrong direction.
"It's embarrassing," said the Hamilton centre. "Losing 5-1 is unacceptable, and we've got to do better."

Linux Top 3: Fedora 18 Delayed, Tiny Core Advances and a Shot in the ARM
1) Fedora 18
There are some Linux distributions that hold steadfast to their release schedules no matter what. That's not the case with Fedora, which is aiming for quality and stability and will often delay a release and its milestone components for that reason.
The anaconda installation tool currently has 7 blocker bugs listed for it that will need to be addressed for the release to go forward.
Even though developers have pushed back the beta milestone, the plan is to still release the final version of Fedora 18 on December 11th. The original release planfor Fedora 18 had at one point planned a release as early as November 6th.
2) Tiny Core 4.7
The same day that Fedora developers pushed back their Beta milestone, TinyCore Linux developer Robert Shingledecker released Tiny Core Linux 4.7.
Tiny Core is a minimalist Linux distribution, similar to Puppy Linux in size and scope.
"The major theme for Core v4.7 is major improvements to "core" GUI programs," the project page states. "New in this release is a major overhaul to the ondemand system in support of scm ondemand menu and icons. The Backup/Restore GUI, filetool, located on the Control Panel, has been expanded to easily add or delete files and directories, as well as options to display the backup process. Using ondemand and eliminating unneeded onboot items results in faster boot times. "
3) Linux on ARM
Efforts to expand Linux on ARM based architecture were expanded last week with the formation of the Linaro Enterprise Group (LEG).
Members of the LEG include: AMD, Applied Micro Circuits Corporation, Calxeda, Canonical, Cavium, Facebook, HP, Marvell and Red Hat. A key goal for the group is to work on accelerating the development of Linux Servers on ARM.
Linux is driving innovation in every area of computing from mobile and embedded to the cloud. Linaro's enterprise efforts will bring together software engineers to help accelerate Linux development for ARM servers, and we're confident that this new server-focused group will advance Linux in these areas and offer additional choices to Linux users around the world." said Jim Zemlin, executive director of the Linux Foundation.

Re: Resident Evil 4 Now Available for Download
Ahhh, Resident Evil 4. I loved the hell out of the game when I first got it. Played through it four times. I don't think it holds up as much today, especially with all the other third-person shooters like Gears of War and Uncharted with much better control schemes.

There's something glorious about a collection of the same model cars arranged in a row; but when the collection is '53 first-year production Corvettes, one can hardly stop looking. "We'll probably never see this again," said Corvette historian and author Noland Adams, who owns '53 Corvette No. 284. Just 300 were built that first year, the cars now labeled by their order in the production run. Eleven o'clock Saturday was to be their moment of glory at the '03 Corvettes At Carlisle staged by event promoter and organizer Chip Miller, as the cars were pulled from the long row of tenting for a once-in-a-lifetime group shot.
Alan Blay, who brought six '53 Corvettes (he owns eight) for the display, told us the previous record was 26, which occurred on June 30, 2003 for the 50th birthday reunion in Flint, Michigan. Blay was a big help putting together this display and setting the new record of 54 '53 Corvettes (49 under the tent row, two in Chip's Choice Collection inside the main building, George Kerbeck's EX-122 (actually built prior to production), the '53 at GM's Restoration display, and one in the NCRS gallery.
In total, over 58,000 Corvette fans and 2,542 Corvettes came out for the 22nd Annual Corvettes at Carlisle event. It was a great place to view every year Corvette ever made, visit with Corvette manufacturers, and locate hard-to-find parts in the swap-meet area. The Mecum Auction staged on the fairgrounds had a terrific turnout with a lot of buys to be had. Add to that the chassis-dyno cell (to find out the true horsepower of your Corvette), a huge 50th Anniversary and Grand Sport car display, and even a beauty contest, and you had a wonderful three-day event that will be remembered by all who made the trek to Carlisle.
After getting over the incredible sight of the cars lined up like a chorus line, the real fun was walking along the row of '53s and listening to the stories. Every car has a unique history-the original Corvette was quite a trendsetter, the first American car to have an "organic" design.
Out of the midst of the hubbub of voices we heard a lady bubbling with enthusiasm as she remembered, "We used to get all dressed up on Saturday night and go to dinner in the Corvette." She stood with friends in front of one of the '53s that was obviously unrestored and not running. We wanted to hear more.
"Oh, I'll go get my husband," Annette Amendolia smiled. The lady was too shy to think she could do the '53 justice. We didn't want technical details. She had opened a door into the past and we wanted to look inside. The year was 1961. Annette's two boys were "very, very small." The Corvette was 8 years old and a very big deal.
"Saturday nights we used to get all dressed up, get in our Corvette, and drive it around. Sometimes we'd take the boys with us and people would say, 'That's not a family car. How can you stuff those two kids in that car?' And we'd say we're taking them out to dinner, too. It was a great car. We have a lot of pleasant memories with it."
Pat Amendolia was not your average car enthusiast. He was in the fiberglass business at the time he bought his '53. In 1952, he actually built a fiberglass body and installed it on a chassis made from Essex framerails and fitted with a Stovebolt six. Initially, the car was to be a hot rod with a '26 Chevy body.
Fascinated with Corvette's fiberglass car and full of the sports car mania that filled America after World War II, Pat says he "went bananas and built a mockup, then built the body." The end result was a roadster, which he ran in an SCCA road race. He still has film of that car racing today.
Pat and Annette owned their '53 for 38 years, and 4 years ago sold their baby to Alan Blay who lives near them in New York. Blay is a virtual human encyclopedia of '53 Corvette history, able to name each car's owner and its history as we walked along the row of roadsters. When we asked him about the fascination for the '53, he gave us reason to be proud of the original, and for much more than its fiberglass trend-setting roots we hear so much about.
The original Corvette was the first "organic" American car design (organic referring to resembling a living thing, i.e., the headlights are eyes, the grille a mouth with teeth, the emblem a nose). Many American cars after Corvette followed this theme, including the original Ford Thunderbird and the first Mustang of 1965. Prior to 1953, industrial car design in the States followed the streamlined look of airplanes and rockets. After all these years, the original '53 Corvette design is finally getting the respect it deserves. One of Blay's '53 Corvettes, No. 75, is currently on exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum of Art as part of its organic art forms display.
Corvettes at Carlisle set a record for the most '53 Corvettes ever gathered in one place. Even in 1953, Blay says, there were no more than a dozen on the back lot in Flint at any one time-case in point being a press party on September 28, 1953, which included just 14 cars.
Nice job to the folks at Carlisle for staging a truly record-setting event.

LOVELADY, TX (KTRE) - A survey crew from the National Weather Service office in Houston confirmed Monday that Sunday's storm damage in Lovelady was caused by an EF-1 tornado.
According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Web site, EF stands for Enhanced Fujita. Tornadoes are rated 0 through 5 on the Enhanced Fujita scale, with an EF-5 being the most powerful type of tornado. An EF-1 tornado has 3-second gusts of anywhere from 86 to 110 mph, according to the NOAA Web site.
A Lovelady woman who is battling cancer lost everything when the EF-1 tornado tore through her subdivision Sunday night.
However, it could have been much worse; the woman's son came to get her, so she could spend the night at his house about 45 minutes before her mobile home was destroyed.
"I know it's not a brick house, but it was my home," said Esther Ramirez, the owner of a mobile home that was flipped upside down. "This hurts me very deeply; it was all I had. I don't want to remember. I feel sorry because that is all I got."
Rameriz's granddaughter, Gaby Morales, lives next to her. Morales said she had roof damage. Her main concern though was her grandmother.
"She loved that place," Morales said. "She didn't want to get rid of it. The first thing that popped in my head when I saw it was she is going to be heartbroken."
Three homes were damaged in the Pecan Acres subdivision in Lovelady when the severe weather blew through the area Sunday. One woman was injured as a result of the EF-1 tornado.
Morales said she didn't hear anything like a train before the possible tornado hit. To her, it sounded more like the rumbling of a car, and then she heard a loud crack. When she looked outside, she saw her grandmother's house on its side.
"I know how much my grandmother loved that house," Morales said. "It was her only big possession."
Zavalla residents Jerry Bishop and his wife were in Lovelady Monday as a part of a Southern Baptist Convention Disaster Relief team from Lufkin's Harmony Hill Baptist Church's chainsaw ministry group. Bishop said they are there to assess the damage and see if there if there is anyone who needs shelter.
"Based on what we were told and what we saw on KTRE, we were surprised that it's not worse than it is," Bishop said.
One woman was hurt in the storm. Toni Cowger was trapped in her trailer after three trees landed on it. A man next door would help her out and that is when she discovered she had a gash on her leg. Cowger would go to the hospital and later be released.
"I saw a big piece of tin come flying across the yard and when I got up and made it to my patio door the wind was a blowing and howling," Cowger said. "Next thing I know, I'm in the floor."
Several of COwger's children rushed to help their mother out. Charlotte Cowger said she is amazed that her mother is alive.
"Blessed is quiet a bit of an understatement," Cowger said. [We are] very Lucky, very lucky to have her still here."
Lovelady High School also suffered damage, but not enough to cancel school for the day.

Today we announced the start of the next Ubuntu App Showdown, and I have very high hopes for the kinds of apps we'll see this time around. Our SDK has grown by leaps and bounds since the last one, and so much more is possible now. So go get yourself started now: http://developer.ubuntu.com/apps/
Earlier today Jono posted his Top 5 Dream Ubuntu Apps, and they all sound great. I don't have any specific apps I'd like to see, but I would love to get some multi-player games. Nothing fancy, nothing 3D or FPS. Think more like Draw Something or Words With Friends, something casual, turn-based, that lets me connect with other Ubuntu device users. A clone of one of those would be fun, but let's try and come up with something original, something unique to Ubuntu.
What do you say, got any good ideas? If you do, post them in the App Showdown subreddit or our Google+ App Developers community and let's make it happen.Read more

Atari's Pong is stealing our quarters once again, recently approved for use in a slot machine made by Bally: "Bally Pong." A cabinet decorated with chrome fixtures and retro fonts will be a pretty standard 5-line slot, though featuring two knobs for the 1-in-70 occurrence of a 45-second Pong minigame. And while earnings at this point are "skill based," will expert Pongers see a real payout advantage?
Yes. Those who succeed in the minigame will see a payout up to 7% higher—which is a huge amount in Vegas where the minimum payout is 75%. We're not big on the slots, but with PONG and the possibility of Breakout coming down the line, our mad gaming skills could pay off...literally. In all reality, we'll just be losing 7% less than all of our money. [forbes via therawfeed]

The Nebraska Medical Center Transplant Team Performs First Dual Heart-Kidney Transplant
An Omaha man is recovering well today after undergoing an historic operation at The Nebraska Medical Center on May 18. David Gildea was the first patient at the medical center to receive a combined heart and kidney transplant.
"This is an exciting milestone for our transplant program," said John Um, M.D., heart transplant surgeon at The Nebraska Medical Center. "This is a vital treatment option for patients in our region who have advanced heart failure and renal disease."
Before transplant, Gildea had end-stage heart disease and his kidneys were barely functioning, requiring daily dialysis.
"Medically speaking, he was about as sick as a person can get," said Clifford Miles, M.D., nephrologist at The Nebraska Medical Center.
Even at a medical center which routinely handles complex cases requiring multi-disciplinary care, Gildea's case necessitated a remarkable amount of highly specialized expertise; bringing together experts from five different medical specialties.
"Very few heart transplant programs in the world will perform a multi-organ transplant for an extremely sick patient, said Eugenia Raichlin, M.D., cardiologist at The Nebraska Medical Center. "The care for this patient required the skills of an experienced and sophisticated team of transplant surgeons, hematologists and renal and cardiovascular disease specialists."
Dr. Raichlin adds that advanced renal disease in the presence of severe heart failure has traditionally been a reason to exclude heart failure patients from a heart transplant. "Patients in this particular condition have faced insurmountable odds," said Dr. Raichlin. "With simultaneous heart and kidney transplantation, we are able to offer more of the high-risk heart disease patients a reason for hope."
Surgery began at 5:30 p.m. on Tues., May 18 and continued until 1:00 a.m. the next morning. The patient's heart was transplanted first, followed immediately by the kidney.
"Once we were confident that the new heart was working well, we knew the patient could tolerate the kidney transplant," said Dr. Um.
An Uncommon Operation
A combined heart and kidney transplant is not a common procedure. Data from the United Network of Organ Sharing (UNOS) shows there were only a total of 60 combined heart and kidney transplants performed in the nation last year in comparison to 362 combined liver and kidney transplants and 16,831 isolated kidney transplants.
"This is not a technically difficult operation," said Michael Morris, M.D., kidney transplant surgeon at The Nebraska Medical Center. "The reason these operations are relatively rare is because there are not many robust heart transplant programs in the nation. The fact that The Nebraska Medical Center can now perform these transplants is a huge credit to the growing success of our heart transplant program."
The Nebraska Medical Center transplant team anticipates there will be a growing need for combined heart and kidney transplants. According to Dr. Miles, many patients who suffer from long-term heart failure also have significant renal disease. The two problems often co-exist because a weakened heart cannot pump blood sufficiently to the kidneys or because the kidneys have been damaged by other cardiovascular conditions such as hypertension or diabetes.
At age 61, David Gildea says he had been in great shape until recently, eating well and exercising every day since his teenage years.
"For more than forty years, I ran about two to three miles a day and lifted weights," said Gildea. But one day, about a year ago, he says he couldn't find the energy to run. "I was alarmed," he said. He quickly got worse. "I had a hard time doing anything. It would take me a few hours to get dressed every morning."
"He was exhausted just walking from the bedroom to the living room," said Gildea's girlfriend, Karen Rech. "It was to the point that every time he moved, I was in constant fear of losing him."
A biopsy revealed amyloid (pronounced AM'-i-loyd) protein deposits in Gildea's kidneys and heart. His physician suspected Gildea had amyloidosis, a rare blood disease affecting only eight of every one million people. People who have the disease have abnormal deposits of amyloid in their tissue or organs. Harm results when the deposits cause the organs to malfunction. The disease is rapidly disabling and life-threatening. In Gildea's case, his heart and kidneys were affected.
"I had never heard of amyloidosis," said Gildea. "I was told it was a very rare disease, and that most people don't survive it."
Dr. Raichlin had trained at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., a center which specializes in amyloidosis, and knew about an aggressive treatment for the disease – a multi-organ transplant followed by a blood stem cell transplant.
"I knew our medical center had the expertise to help this patient," said Dr. Raichlin. "Plus, we had to act quickly; David didn't have a lot of time. I suggested this innovative treatment."
Immediately following his heart and kidney transplant, Gildea said he felt like a new person. "I wasn't short of breath when I went for a walk. I had stamina again." His friends said they also noticed he could think more clearly.
Another Transplant to Come
As amyloidosis is normally a fatal disease, Gildea will require high-dose chemotherapy followed by an autologous blood stem cell transplant to halt the progression of the disease towards his transplanted organs. Edward Faber Jr., DO, MS, hematopoietic stem cell transplant specialist at The Nebraska Medical Center plans to prepare Gildea for this treatment over the next three months.
"Many patients with amyloidosis have advanced organ disease or are too old to benefit from this type of intensive treatment," said Dr. Faber. "Usually, heart and kidney failure from amyloidosis are contraindications to this type of therapy, but Gildea is now eligible for the treatment due to the successful combined heart and kidney transplant."
Gildea will receive an autologous blood stem cell transplant, which means that he will have his own blood stem cells collected and stored in liquid nitrogen. He then will receive high-dose chemotherapy to damage the blood stem cells which are causing the amyloidosis. After chemotherapy, Gildea's stored blood stem cells will be reintroduced to replace the damaged blood stem cells.
Gildea Continues Positive Attitude
"Although I was deeply concerned when I was first diagnosed, a positive attitude has gotten me through the tough times," said Gildea. "As the father of severely handicapped 29 year old twins, I have had a lot of hard days in my life. I know I still have a long road ahead with my treatment. My goal has always been to not complain."
Before he went into the transplant operation, Gildea says he was asked, "How can you be so calm?" His response, "I know the outcome." This is the kind of attitude that will help Gildea through the next steps of his treatment.

There are many reasons why I should say NO to the draft constitution like the fact we became a presidential state despite it was better to have a semi-presidential state , the President got no vice president and Shura council got more power than the people's assembly. Still there is one article that makes me want to say big "NO" , article no.76 .
Article No.76 states the following :
No punishment without a legal or constitutional text
This is the first time in the world and history according to constitution experts that we got those words "and Constitutional text"
In Constitution 1971 article no.66 was as followed :
No punishment without legal text
Now this alteration in the article allows directly judges to ignore the law and go directly for Islamic Sharia or rather to be accurate for their own interpretation of Sharia based on that Sheikh from Salafists or this Sheikh from Al Azhar.
Article No.2 says that the Principles of Islamic Sharia are the main source of legislation already so I do not know if this means that judges will go for the principles or for the rules. Of course we will have another debate about the word "Principles" but according to all legal experts who are against the alteration fear that can for judges the doors to go directly to Sharia with all the debates about its rules.
This article has been modified by the Salafists above them Yasser El Borhami who confessed that he and other Salafists manipulated with words to get what they wanted. He bragged in a video on how he altered it and why he altered it :
There was an article in [the 1971] constitution stating no punishment without a legal text. But we objected to this article and were able to change it to 'no punishment without a legal or constitutional text' because if it had remained in the original format, consensual adultery, homosexuality, and usury would not be punished, as they are currently not prohibited by law
With my due respect to those conservatives in Egypt but I believe the Sharia is already implemented in the Personal Issues and families laws from a long time and we are not secular country like Tunisia or Turkey that is finding its way back to Islam after decades of radical secularism. I believe already Sharia will be misused in the hands of those radical conservatives who are already representing the biggest danger on Islam and Egypt now !!
The man for all seasons who used to attack the Muslim brotherhood directly on National TV during the time of Mubarak and whom our current president now used to warn his brothers from aka Essam Sultan the member of the Constituent assembly defends this article. He claims that this article is altered because there are some crimes punishable in the constitution like torture and so on adding that it talks to the legislator !!!
I am not convinced at all with explanation because torture was also criminalized in 1971 and we did not have this addition plus I understand Arabic very well to know that this article is about legislation !!
The fact that this comes from Essam Sultan makes me already uncomfortable !!
To represent counter view , here is Judge Ahmed Abu Shosha "A reformist judge" who believes that article with that new alteration will allow the executive authority represented in the president to issue decrees regulations that can be regarded laws and sources of punishment. I do not know if I translated what he is saying in Arabic as it should or not.
By the way I know that this draft constitution will be approved but it does not matter because insh Allah it will be downed even after couple of years. Anyone bothered to read the Modern Egyptian history will know this.

BrentWorthGuitars needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 23 designs submitted by 7 freelance designers.
Solid-body electric guitars, built from actual wood benches salvaged from Red Rocks Amphitheater. Historic; amazing musical mojo. Purchaser of these guitars will be serious musicians (hopefully some of the world class guitarists who have played this venue) and collectors. Need graphics/website design that will capture and instantly convey the importance of these instruments.
Brent Worth Guitars
I purchased a quantity of benches salvaged from Red Rocks Amphitheatre. This wood is Brazilian Redwood, over 60 years old. It has absorbed every note from every musical act that played at Red Rocks since its opening in 1942. When milled and finished, it is a very beautiful wood- warm reddish glow, straight subtle grain.
I am using this wood to build custom solid body electric guitars. I need graphics and a web design to instantly and indellibly capture the mojo and history of these guitars.

Two huge trades have happened since Mock Draft 1.0 as the Rams and Eagles have moved into the top two spots.
They won't radically change the top because I had Cal's Jared Goff and North Dakota State's Carson Wentz coming off the board in the top four selections in the first version. Now they simply slide up the board.
What's worth wondering is if another trade or two inside the top 10 could change the complexion of the draft for the Bears and general manager Ryan Pace.
1. Rams (from Titans): Jared Goff, QB, California.

Five things of note from the Waynesboro Council meeting on Dec. 20.
Here are five things to know from Wednesday's Waynesboro Borough Council meeting.
1. Budget adoption
The board agreed 5-0 to adopt the $8.9 million budget for 2013 without an increase in property taxes.
The borough's real estate tax rate will remain at 25.08 mills — with 18.08 for the general fund, 5 mills for stormwater management upgrades and street improvements and 2 mills for street lights.
Borough Manager Lloyd Hamberger thanked council and the department heads for helping keep the budget balanced.
"Council spent a lot of time on this," he said. "We want to also thank the staff in assisting us. This is all a team effort."
2. Proclamation for Newtown
Mayor Richard Starliper had council members sign a proclamation for the town of Newtown, Conn., expressing the borough's deepest sympathies and heartfelt prayers after last week's shooting deaths at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
3. Street lights
Darrel Potts, chair of council's street committee, said the committee will review several requests from the public regarding the addition of street lights in various alleys throughout town.
A Cleveland Avenue resident asked council to add the lights after shots were fired into an occupied home on West Second Street, and additional shots were fired in the 100 block of West North Street the night of Dec. 3.
Police Chief James Sourbier IV said Wednesday the investigation into the incident is ongoing, adding he is optimistic it will be solved soon.
Potts said several other residents have asked for more street lights in alleys, and the requests will be reviewed at the start of the new year.
4. Surplus items
Fire Chief Dave Martin asked council if it would allow the fire department to sell surplus equipment the borough can no longer use, including old parking meters and street lights, to generate revenue for the fire department.
Council agreed, and Councilman Ben Greenawalt said he was glad the borough is finally getting rid of the items.
5. New website
The borough's new website is up and running. It features an up-to-date calendar that includes recycling weeks and meeting times, recycling policies, applications, ordinances, information on the parks and a section for online bill payments.
Hamberger thanked Melinda Knott and Scott Crum for their work on bringing the borough into the 21st century.

IN THE HEIGHTS on Broadway Says Goodbye to Danny Bolero as 'Kevin Rosario,' 12/5
