Hornets must walk the walk - Austin
After seeing his Watford troops let their football do the talking despite defeat to Chelsea in the cup, assistant coach Dean Austin reckons the Hornets must now "walk the walk" to get up the league.
The Hornets do battle with Swansea tonight - a side who haven`t lost in their last 16 games - and Austin is adamant that players have got to show what they can do.
The former Palace and Southend stalwart told the official club site "We know what we`ve got to do and we`ve got plenty of work on our hands…Hopefully we can get amongst them and give them a game".
Hopefully? Come on Deano, where`s the confidence?
Thankfully Austin is far more assured when it comes to the Hornets stamping their own authority on the game (and a rather shoddy looking pitch that`s bound to be leveller).
Brendan Rodgers` right hand man stated "...we will always emphasis our own game because we have got good players in our team - we can score goals and we can hurt anyone in our division if we can play and continue to play the way we have in the last 4 games".
"The ability of our team is not in question…"
That might be so Dean but the league position still holds a massive cause for concern with sides like Doncaster on a mini-revival and teams around us all scrapping it out for points.
Don`t fret though Hornet fans, Austin is certain things are gonna be just fine come May. He added "It`s in our own hands, we feel we have got more than enough to get ourselves well out of the mire. It`s alright talking the talk but you`ve got to walk the walk".
Ah, it`s almost enough to get us chest thumping with pride.

How to get the PocketSphinxAndroidDemo workThis tutorial depends on the following requirements:
A) Windows 8 64-Bit machine (Asus Vivobook)
B) Samsung Galaxy S3 with Android 4.1.2
C)Eclipse Juno 4.2.1
I wanted to start with developing some Speech To Text apps, and found a third party library that seems good to do this. This lib is called CMUSphinx, there are some versions for different systems, but in this tutorial I only want to show You, how to set up the android demo project from the CMUSphinx website. This Demo is called PocketSphinxAndroidDemo and it shows how to use pocketsphinx on an android device. It was very hard, because the tutorial on CMUSphinx website is not usefull on all systems. I searched long time about a complete tutorial for windows 8 but could´nt find some. But any day, I get this demo app work and now, I want to share my experience with all interested developers.
For dealing with CMU Sphinx, You have to download and install the android-ndk, a toolset for writing android apps in the native way, for exampe in C or C++. But no fear, even if it is good to learn how to programm with the android-ndk, the knowledge is not necessary for this. But You have to be able to build this demo, for this You need android-ndk.
1. Download ndk windows exe from developer site:
double click to start the .exe and follow instructions.
2. Download the plug-ins for Eclipse
Install CDT from Eclipse update site http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/indigo
Install Android SDK + NDK Plugins from Eclipse update site https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
Now open Eclipse as an Admin and goto Help->install new Software and adding the links above into the first field. Check all that is not checked and start.
After everything is installed, restart eclipse. After that, set ndk-path by:
window->preferences->Android->NDK and push "Browse" button to locate the installed android-ndk folder inside your machine.
3. Download CygWin
The best link I found was the RedHat Cygwin .exe:
download the .exe and start it. From now , it will guide You through. Select a download server and go on. Now You will see the tools to download, for CMUSphinx only, choose the Folder "Devel" and click on it until at the left is showing "install". Then start installing, this needs a little bit time.
4. Download SWIG
download SWIG 1.3 (latest 1.3 version) from
1.3 IS NEEDED BECAUSE CMUSphinx DON´T WORK WITH NEWER SWIG VERSIONS
5. Install SWIG
Installing swig on Windows is easy. But be informed that the swig.exe in the SWIG Folder , don´t work on all machines. On windows 8 I couldn´t get it work, but the only thing to do is to set the environment Variable to Your System:
At Windows go to System->System->Advanced Preferences->Environment Variables
Select System Variables and search "PATH". Select "PATH" and then press "edit". You should see something linke this:
If You have not set the Path of SWIG, You will see not SWIG like in the example above. Everything that is set before in this field: DON´T TOUCH IT. Instead, go to the end of the other declarations and set ";". Then set the path to Your SWIG Folder at Your machine, for Example
That´s all for installing swig on windows.
6. Start with CMUSphinx
Download three sources from Sphinx:
sphinxbase: http://sourceforge.net/projects/cmusphinx/files/sphinxbase/0.8/
pocketsphinx: http://sourceforge.net/projects/cmusphinx/files/pocketsphinx/0.8/
If any link will not work, because there is another directory meanwhile, go to the CMUSphinx homepage:
BE SURE THAT YOU HAVE DOWNLOADED sphinxbase and pocketsphinx with extension .tar.gz .
7. Unzip the files into one directory
Create a folder anywhere on Your machine and put all three files inside and unzip them. Now, this is very important, remove the Version declaration from the folders. The folders You have downloaded should be something like this when they are unpaked:
rename them to pocketsphinx and sphinxbase, so that no version number is there. The Structure of all should look like this:
CMUSphinx (parent Folder)
|-pocketsphinx (subfolder of parent Folder)
|-sphinxbase (subfolder of parent Folder)
|-PocketSphinxAndroidDemo (subfolder of parent Folder)
8. Do ndk-Build in cygwin
Open the Android.mk file inside the PocketSphinxAndroidDemo Folder, for example with WordPad from windows, or Editor. Change at the Top the following line:
SPHINX_PATH := $(HOME)/Projects/Sphinx/trunk
Set the path where Your parent CMUSphinx folder is. In windows, don´t use variables like $ to do this. Your SPHINX_PATH should similar to this (this is my folder structure):
SPHINX_PATH := /cygdrive/c/Programmierung/DeveloperLibs/CMUSphinx
Explanation: /cygdrive/ is called from the cygwin. There the root is called /cygdrive. The rest is the normal path where Your CMUSphinx folder is.
Press Save without changing the File extension or change the directory, only "Save".
Start the cygwin terminal as Adinistrator. If You installed Cygwin with Redhat, there are maybe two cygwin terminals. I don´t think it makes a difference, but I used the one called "Redhat Cygwin Terminal". If the terminal is initialized, do following command to go to your home.
cd c:/
Then cd into your PocketSphinxAndroidDemo/jni folder:
cd /cygdrive/c/yourPathToTheparentCMUSphinxFolder/PocketSphinxAndroidDemo/jni
Now, do the ndk build.
/cygdrive/c/yourPathToTheNDKFolder/android-ndk-r8d/ndk-build V=1 NDK_LOG=1
all this should look like:
and the ndk-build:
Then there must be a lot of output:
The important thing: Now check if a .so File is created in the libs Folder inside the PocketSphinxAndroidDemo/libs folder. With your windows folder-explorer, check it out and open the folder: PocketSphinxAndroidDemo->libs->armeabi-> There should be three files, gdbsetup,gdbserver and libpocketsphinx_jni.so . If You got this, congratulation. Go to the next step.
9. Import Demo into Eclipse
Open Eclipse, and import the Project into Your workspace. To do this, go to:
File->Import->Android->Existing Android Code into Workspace (this could be different on other Eclipse Versions). Now, select the directory from Your downloaded and unzipped PocketSphinxAndroidDemo Folder (with "Browse" Button) and push "Finish". The Project should be now in Your workspace. Note that there could be a error warning from Eclipse about double "src" folders....ignore it, this seems to be an Eclipse bug or an unnecessary warning.
Right click on this Project and select Properties->Builders. You should see something like this. Be sure that NDK and SWIG is inside:
Now, select NDK build and choose "edit". At the "Main"-Tab in "Location" , set the Path to Your ndk folder, point on the file "ndk-build" inside this folder. There are two "ndk-build" files inside, You have to point on ndk-build.cmd .
Select the Refresh Tab and choose "The project containing the selected resource". Next, go to the "Build-Options" Tab und deselect "Specify working set of relevant resources". Select Apply and Ok.
Now, select the SWIG and choose "edit" (the same way like with NDK-Build). Don´t change anything in the "Main"-Tab, If You downloaded SWIG like here at the beginning of this tutorial, You don´t have to change anything. In the refresh tab select "The folder containing the selected resource" and in the Build Options tab deselect "Specifiy working set of relevant resources", like You did it with NDK-Build.
Press Apply and close this window. Your Eclipse Project is ready, now You have to do some changes inside Your phone´s sd card or internal storage.
10. Set up Your Phone
It´s time to set up Your phone. Create some Folders on Your sd Card. Note, that there are phones with two storage directories. One is the SD Card, the other one is the internal Storage. I created the folder at my internal storage, but maybe the data will not grabbed from the right directory. I recommend to create this following folder structure on both directories, if Your phone got both.
First, create the folder called "edu.cmu.pocketsphinx ". Inside this folder, create the following folder structure:
edu.cmu.pocketsphinx --> (created folder)
----> hmm --> (subfolder of edu.cmu.pocketsphinx)
| |
| ----> en_US -->(subfolder of hmm)
| |
| ----> hub4wsj_sc_8k -->(subfolder of hmm)
----> lm-->(subfolder of edu.cmu.pocketsphinx)
-----> en_US-->(subfolder of edu.cmu.pocketsphinx)
We have top copy some files from our pocketsphinx folder at our computer to the created directory on the phone:
On your computer, go to your pocketsphinx folder: pocketsphinx\model\hmm\en_US and copy the files to the phones directory "edu.cmu.pocketsphinx/hmm/en_US".
Next, go to your computers directory "pocketsphinx/model/lm/" and copy the files to your phones directory "edu.cmu.pocketsphinx/lm/en_US".
Now, in Eclipse, open the RecognizerTask.java file on the src folder in package edu.cmu.pocketsphinx.demo . You have to change the path´ for getting the files we copied before. AND NOW, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT: At the tutorial from CMU Sphinx, there is a path declared that not work on every phone. Instead of doing changes like described in the tutorial, change these path´ like this:
Search the constructor "public ReconizerTask{}", it must be somewhere at line 160 (less or more). Inside the constructor, change the path´, the constructor have to look like this:
public RecognizerTask() {
String sdPath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString();
Config c = new Config();
c.setString("-rawlogdir", sdPath+"/edu.cmu.pocketsphinx");
c.setFloat("-samprate", 8000.0);
c.setInt("-maxhmmpf", 2000);
c.setInt("-maxwpf", 10);
c.setInt("-pl_window", 2);
c.setBoolean("-backtrace", true);
c.setBoolean("-bestpath", false);
this.ps = new Decoder(c);
this.audio = null;
this.audioq = new LinkedBlockingQueue<short[]>();
this.use_partials = false;
this.mailbox = Event.NONE;
If You created the folder structure on both directories like I said before, You will get sure that the demo can grab the files. On my mobile phone ,there is no sd card inside, so I got only one directorie, and this works very fine.
Well, thats it, now You should be able to build and run the project. The PocketSphinxAndroidDemo is just the basic of dealing with CMUSphinx. For example, this demo only listen to english words, but it is possible to get more language models. If I go forward with this, I will write a tutorial for how to build an own PocketSphinx Application. Until then, I hope You have success with this tutorial. It´s possible, that this does not work on all windows machines, I could only do this tutorial for a windows 8 64-Bit machine, but if there are some differences to other windows versions, please let me know. If possibe, I will integrate this into this tutorial to help other poeple.
If You have detected some wrong descriptions, also let me know, so I could fix this.

This is one of my favorite products. The paper is high quality; it was colorful and easy to match with solid colored paper that I already had. The card-stock stickers were easy to use and had fun phrases as well as cute characters. Excellent cut outs. I used this paper in my son's baby book as well as for my daughter's ski scrapbook. The dark snowflake paper, which I thought I would not like, was actually very useful and added a lit of flair! I've bought a lot of Bug In A Rug products and have enjoyed them all.
My daughter loved this product and ended up making her own pages for our Xmas memory book (she's 4 so she doesn't always get into the scrapbook groove like Mommy!). She still points and laughs at the elves and Santa's on the pages. It's a great pack, complete with card stock stickers and cutouts. I would have liked more stickers or a border cutout page in stead of the rub-on letters... I have a lot of those already... Loved the colors too.
I enjoyed this product but found it very "girly". It should be called a Girls Lazy Summer Collection. Fortunately the paper did match with solid yellows, greens and blue's. This made it more appropriate for a family album that my son could also enjoy without complaining about the amount of pink surrounding his pictures! The card stock stickers are sweet... very easy to use as well as useful. Great potential for all kinds of page layouts. Enjoy.
This was a very practical product. I found the paper to be a bit faded throughout the pack (speckled as if it was meant to be old) ... the colors were less vibrant than I had expected. The patterns however, made Halloween scarp-booking easy. The textured paper was interesting - glitter, glossy and flocked. I would not recommend it if you have lots of embellishments or if you write a lot on your pages. The paper is already very busy.
Very cute and simple. A great addition to the Jack and Jill collections.
Loved the colors and the pattern. It was easy to match with other paper. Lots of page layout potential. Great for summer memories.
This was a really cute pack. Original paper, nice colors, very attractive. I would have liked to have some card-stock stickers with it or even some cut outs to make the pack complete. Some are available but are sold separately. Also, I use markers and pens to write on my pages... this was difficult to do with the glossy paper (ink would run). Regardless, the paper was great quality and fun to scrapbook with.
I was looking for paper to highlight a beach vacation with a bunch of kids. The vibrant colors and patterns of this paper reflected all the excitement of the trip. Really good quality paper and easy to match with other colors too. The whole collection is wonderful.
I hesitated to get this because of the dark colors. However, I really enjoyed the patters and theme of the paper. I was not disappointed. It's beautiful paper and well designed for memory books. The sticker and cutouts included are also very easy to use and well designed. I bought metallic gel pens to write on the paper with. The effect was out of this world... well, it turned out to be very attractive. Have fun with it!
If you want a beautiful angel that everyone notices in you book... this is it!
I bought two of these books for my son's baby album. When I received the first book, I was quite disappointed with the brightness of the colors; they were not as bright as the paper I bought to match the book. It was the quality of the item that convinced me to keep it. It is sturdy, the embellishments on the front are well fastened, the photo pocket is easy to fill and the spine stays covered when pages are added. The second book came a little later. This one was much better. Side by side it looks like one was stored in sunlight while the other has better colors, truer to the pictures on the internet. I looked around for others and do not regret this book. It's beautiful and I filled them both!
Excellent Santa... good quality, sturdy and eye catching.
There are better papers out there with boats and planes... keep looking.
I really enjoyed this paper. It goes with all sorts of other colored paper and is just fun to look at.
Loved the paper. It was nice to have boy colors that were both vibrant and subtle in the same pack... but matched and flowed well together in one book. I bought the book and sticker packs that match this product. It is a well coordinated collection.
This was fun paper to use for the "first food" section of my son's baby book. I did a lot with these pages!
Just a really nice pack for my boy's book. Great colors, fun theme, excellent quality and the pages went really well with other solid colored pages from other packs I bought from Three Bugs in a Rug. Less wastes that way.
Great, sturdy, colorful and fun animal design.
Really nice product. Well made, sturdy and attractive.
My kids laugh every-time they see these in their book! Love the design, really fun and excellent quality. Mom thinks the are cute too!
Wonderful... if not over the top! Sturdy and easy to stick in.
These are great. You get a lot of solid, good quality animals for the price. They are cute, colorful and my children love them. They are all sizes and shapes. Easy to stick, stay on... wonderful, wonderful wonderful!
I used the big rocket on a picture page of my son in space pjs... everyone says what a beautiful rocket! Great stickers, good quality and sturdy. The rocket is quite big though and needs space!
Used these to decorate a picture page of my son in his first cast (he broke and ankle)! He loves the picture page. Great item with lots of stickers. Made a bad day memory a little less hard to remember.

Supporting Acts: Jonny Rodgers
Radical Face
After four years milling over the concept and fifteen months recording alone in the tool shed behind his mother's house in Jacksonville Florida, Ben Cooper, AKA Radical Face, is finally ready to release his sophomore album 'The Family Tree: The Roots' out October 4th on Bear Machine. It's the follow-up to his 2007 debut indie triumph Ghost, and the first installment of what will eventually be three stand alone records all tied to the theme of a Family Tree--once again separating himself from all things traditional. Hauntingly beautiful, The Family Tree: The Roots has all the makings of an indie classic. Don't be fooled by Ben's understated voice and the simple beginnings. Each song builds in layers much like the depth of its characters. From soaring tracks like "A Pound of Flesh" and "Severus and Stone," eerily dark pieces like "Black Eyes" and "Kin" to warm enlightening gems like "Always Gold" and "Mountains," the songs flow together with mindful artistic clarity, allowing you to fully escape into the album as the stories unravel.

Wedding customs in Nepal vary according to ethnic groups and castes. Especially country like Nepal, have different kinds of wedding ceremonies because we have varieties of cast and creeds. Weddings in the metropolitans have parades or car for the wedding processions; full fledged band instruments such as trumpets and trombones, ferry lights all over the house which is naturally more expenses. These weddings are completely different from the traditional remote village weddings. They are very simple for very rich in culture. Wedding in Nepal is a multi day event, which may engross an entire village. In its essence, it reveals the very strong social and communal values of the Nepali people. Few things in Nepali culture take precedence over a wedding and most people treat the time as the opportunity of a lifetime and a time to hold back and celebrate with varieties of foods, fun and dancing. Weddings generally take place in tender age in Nepal. It is normal for boys and girls to be married during their teens but in few cases in very young ages. The wedding procedure usually begins with an arrangement of a boy and a girl with comparable backgrounds; often with the help of a priest who are well know as matchmaker. The meeting takes place between the parents of the two families. In an arranged marriage, it is the parents who choose their children's partners. One additional note concerning the arranged marriage: even though the parents choose the individuals, the children are commonly given a voice to accept or decline the match. There are instances, however, of a couple not seeing each other for the first time until the ceremony begins. In a love marriage, it is the boy and the girl who choose their mate. Today, both types can be found throughout the country but it is the arranged marriage that predominates.
However, the love marriage method has been gaining much acceptance over the years perhaps due to the influence of western culture and more over with the drastic develop in media. Eloping may occur between couples that are not thought to be a suitable match in case of different castes & tribes.
One of the important events in our traditional wedding is that the groom puts a pinch of red-coloured powder on the bride's forehead. This symbolizes that they are now husband and wife. This red color on the woman's forehead differentiates whether she is married or not. The bride and groom by tradition are always carried either in a wooden casket or by horse (if financially feasible). The bride after being handed over to the groom by her parents will then travel to the groom's village to become a member of his family's household. The Nepali way of life is completely different in comparison to the West. The inheritance goes to son if one and will be divided in to equal part if there are more. The married couples almost always live with the groom's parents. Traditionally the couple will either inherit the parent's land and house or eventually build their own house when feasible.
The ceremony is a very serious affair for the two young people. The bride is dressed in red, which is the color for marriage. Often, she sheds tear as the time to leave approaches. This may be a true feeling of apprehension of leaving the home and family or it may be just a traditional requisite. But many young girls cannot wait to leave the boredom of their life and look forward to having a family of their own.

According to Variety, Kara Royster has been cast as Yvonne, a woman that Toby meets during a robbery (umm, we'll definitely need further explanation on that meet-cute) and gets very close to. Though it's not clear if Yvonne will become Toby's one true bae, PLL showrunner I. Marlene King did tell the trade that Toby is "extremely involved" with Yvonne, and that she's one of the first people that Toby connected with after he and Spencer grew apart. The term "girlfriend" was never dropped, but, let's be real: it totally sounds like she's his main squeeze.
As for Spencer, it appears that she's flying solo this season now that she and Toby are officially dunzo. Conspiracy theorists might consider that her ex-mance with the Tobster leaves room for Wren to swoop back into her life, but I'm thinking that Spencer might be pretty content working on her career this time around. I'll certainly miss Spoby, but hopefully these two exes can share the turf in Rosewood on friendly terms.

Three years old
Guinea Pig
Ithaca, New York, USA
e got Emilly from a pet store at our local shopping mall. She was the only guinea pig left in the store. No one had bought her, most likely because of her crippled paw - our vet suspects that her right forepaw was broken when Em was a baby, and because nobody took care of her injury, the paw healed at an awkward angle. We couldn't care less. The only thing Emilly can't do as well as our other three guinea pigs is climb out of her cage. Anyone who walked into that pet store looking for a guinea pig and chose another one over Emilly because of her paw really missed out.
Emilly is a social little guinea pig, and loves being held and cuddled by her human family members and she sure is cuddly! The only thing she likes better than being the center of attention is a nice, big pile of fresh romaine lettuce or dandelion leaves. So what if she can't run very fast because of her paw? Emilly is an important, furry, pumpkin-colored addition to our family, and we love her to pieces.

Moonlit Encounter
"Hello? Is anyone there?" Jaiden asked, slowly moving forward through the thick fog, careful not to trip. The cold mist made the graveyard even more eerie. It swallowed up all the sound, maybe even the world itself.
Suddenly he heard a hooting sound besides him. Startled, he fell to the ground. A small owl with silver-tipped wings eyed him curiously. "H-hello. I'm looking for someone. Have you seen him? He's tall, dressed in..." The owl made another noise and flew off into the mist. It sat down on a tombstone and looked back at Jaiden as if it wanted him to follow it.
Suddenly, the owl was gone. Jaiden kept going nonetheless. He heard a noise up ahead. He crouched behind a tombstone. There he was! The man from his dream, the one in his painting. "Ah there you are Nyx. Where have you been?" The owl glided down onto the stone Jaiden was hiding behind and wildly flapped it's wings. "Easy girl, easy. What's gotten into you?" Jaiden tried to make himself even smaller. Suddenly he felt someone lifting him into the air by his collar.
"Why did you come back? I told you not to!" His green eyes widened as they were caught in the man's blue eyes. He looked angry. He probably didn't want him around. Just like everyone else. "Answer me. Why did you come back?" "I... I just needed to know if it was real, if wasn't a dream. I wanted to see you." Startled by his last words, he quickly covered his mouth. He couldn't deny that something about that man was drawing him like a moth to the flame.
"I don't want you here. Leave." He knew nobody wanted him around. That he was nothing, less than nothing. But somehow, hearing it from this stranger made it feel so much worse. Tears filled his eyes and he felt anger rise within him. An emotion he didn't know he still had. "Fine! Why should you care anyway!? You're just like everybody else! Nobody ever wanted me!" He shouted. He tried to run away, but the man grabbed his arm.
Jaiden's emerald orbs looked at him like a scared little rabbit caught in a snare. What had he done? He could only recall one time when he had lost his temper. He was only been three back then, but his parents made sure he would never forget. The man looked at him quizzically. "I'm sorry. I'm not going to hurt you Jaiden."
The boy slowly nodded as the man released his arm. His hand lingered for a moment, as if he was afraid he would run after all. The thought crossed Jaiden's mind, but he wanted to stay. "How did you even find me?" "I followed that owl." The man glared at the bird, which moved a few branches higher. "Tsk. Darn Nyx. What did I tell you about doing things on your own like this?" Nyx let out a small, insulted cry before flying off.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cause any trouble." "Don't worry kid. She'll get over it. Anyway, you should go back." "Why?" He almost pleaded. What was happening to him? He never questioned anything he was told to do. His mind was spinning with questions. Why did he feel so strange around this man? Why was he so drawn to him? Why did he even care? "You can't to stay here. I know you don't want to leave, and that's not your fault, but you must leave. I will take you home. Your parents must be worried si... Hey! What's wrong?" The man leaned over Jaiden, who had turned as white as a sheet. His eyes stared into empty space, tears welling in the corners.
Memories of that day flashed before his eyes. That day in elementary school when the principle had brought him home. A guy from the next year had been bullying the girl he secretly liked. He had stood up for her. He never touched the other, but the bigger kid beat him up anyway. The principle dropped him off at his house and explained his parents how Jaiden got injured, and that it wasn't his fault. He assured them that he had already dealt with the bully and they needn't worry about Jaiden.
A week later he came back to school with a doctor's note saying he had fallen of the stairs. The girl walked up to him and kissed him on the cheek. "Thanks for standing up for me. This is for you." She handed him a little flower. He twirled it in his hands, looking at it from every angle, his expression blank. Then he just dropped it and looked at her with empty eyes. "Leave me alone." He turned and walked away, leaving the girl confused and crying. He could never care for anyone. It just wasn't worth it.
"Jaiden!Jaiden!" Finally he snapped out of his trance. That man was right in front of him, looking more than a bit concerned. He felt something wet across his cheeks. It tasted salty. Had he been crying? 'Pathetic,' he thought to himself. His normal complexion returned and the man calmed down as well. "You don't need to take me home. I'll go." Jaiden said,his expression once again blank and unreadable. But his eyes were so cold and void, that the man took a step back. "I'll go. And I won't come back if you don't want me to." He was about to leave ,when the man grabbed his arm again. "Wait. What did you mean 'nobody wants me? And what were you doing here yesterday anyway? Was it because of your parents?" Before Jaiden could even come up with an excuse, something came crashing through the bushes.
"Finally! This blasted mist! I take it this is your doing?" A tall man, build like a rock, stood in front of them. "Liam Ansila. You took my sister's life! Now I shall avenge it!" "Please don't hurt him! It's me you want. I'm the one that killed her." "That's not true! It was an accident!" Liam interrupted. "Silence! Is this true boy?" "Yes." "Than I shall send you to hell from whence you came, demon spawn. I, Abbadon Thornton of the Heavenly Order, shall deliver God's justice" Abbadon drew his sword and charged at Jaiden, who simply waited for what was about to come. The silvery blade cut halfway through a tombstone. Jaiden opened his eyes and saw the man called Liam was lying on top of him. 'Why? Why had he saved him?'
"Are you all right?" He asked. Jaiden nodded. "So now you're gonna pretend to actually have a heart?" Abbadon pulled his sword out of the stone and charged again. Liam stopped the sword with his bare hands. The blade burned between between them but he held on. When Jaiden looked at Liam's leg, he saw blood dripping. Liam had gotten hurt saving him. 'Because of me... I can't let him die because of me.' He picked up a large rock and threw it at Abbadon. It hit him right between the eyes.
"Goddammit!" He staggered and Liam swept his legs away. "Leave him alone you monster!" Jaiden shouted, not quite understanding his own rage. "You little..." "Your fight is with me Abbadon. Don't you forget." "I won't. But first this brat's gonna be chopped liver."
"NO!" Liam's eyes became thin slits, swimming in a crimson flow. Then he collapsed, hands twitching from the excruciating pain all over his body. "Hahaha! You know this poison affects your true form. Is this boy really that important to you?" "He is innocent. He has nothing to do with this. Let him go." "No can't do. He has seen too much already. He-he. I'm going to enjoy stripping the flesh of your bones boy." Abbadon turned to face Jaiden.
"Master of the Underworld. I summon your aid. Cast my enemy into darkness. Extinguish their light. Aglaeca, Azabzel, Nazaer, Vitrea! Rise Dark Goddess NYX!" The words had barely passed Liam's lips, when a cold wind swept the area. A horrifying screech drew Abbadon's and Jaiden's attention. A shadow glided down against the silver moon. A giant owl, black as the deepest shadow landed. It puffed up it's feathers, making it look even taller. It's claws and beak were stained a bloody red. Shimmering blades of silver adorned the tips of her wings. Her golden eyes seemed to burn like the fires of hell. From it's beak came a stench of death and decay. Abbadon swung his blade at the hell-bird, but it simply grabbed it in her beak and shattered it like a toothpick.
Abbadon tried to tun, but giant claws dug deep in his flesh. The pain was so intense he couldn't even scream when Nyx began to tear at his flesh. Jaiden watched in horror. He covered his ears but the terrible screams and the sound of ripping flesh echoed in his head. No more than a bloody pulp, he was still alive when Nyx gulped him down. Jaiden turned around and emptied his stomach.
When he turned around Nyx had taken her old form again. She flew over to Liam, who was spread out on the ground. Nyx let out a long hoot and for a moment Jaiden feared the worst. When Liam petted the bird, he released a breath he didn't know he'd been holding. "Good girl." Liam whispered. Jaiden hurried over to him, still a little weary of Nyx. Liam's leg was badly hurt. Purple lines stretched from the wound. He quickly tore his shirt and bandaged him. "This is all my fault. I'm so sorry." "It's not your fault. Don't worry. I'll be fine." "Liar!" Nyx said. "Uaaaaah! It talks too?"
"It? It? Did you just call me it? I am a pure blood familiar and direct descendant of the great Rok! My name is Nyx, Priestess of the Night and yes I can talk." "It's getting her to shut up that's the hard part." Liam joked. She slapped him with his wing. "You shut up for once. You knew that you wouldn't have enough power to heal yourself after summoning me. Jaiden, do you want to help or not?" "Y-yes." "Good. All you have to do is feed him." "I'll go and some food. I'll be as fast as I can." "Human food won't work. He needs blood." "Blood?"
"You see, Liam's a..." "Enough. I can't let him get involved in this." "He's already involved. He has been from the moment he saved you from that psycho-chick yesterday. There is no going back. Jaiden, Liam is a vampire." "A vampire?!" "Yes. And he doesn't get some blood soon, he will die." Jaiden looked at Liam's leg and took a deep breath. He took of his shirt and tilted his head.
"No way. I'm not doing it." Liam protested "You have to. You'll die." Nyx responded. "Please Mr. Ansila. You only got hurt because of me. So please let me help you." Jaiden's eyes pleaded for Liam to listen. And with a sigh he gave in. "Turn around." Liam and Nyx stared at the multitude of bruises.
Liam gently wrapped his arms around Jaiden's fragile form and whispered in his ear. "I am Nosferatu. A vampire. Something your kind loathes and fears." Liam continued when no response came. "If I feed from you, you will be bound to me. Whatever your life was like, it will crumble to chaos. Are you sure you want to do this?" "Yes" Jaiden spoke with determination, though his voice shook ever so slightly. His live was nothing but chaos anyway. At least now he would choose it himself.
Liam caressed Jaiden's face and titled it slightly. "One more thing." He said, his warm breath lingering on Jaiden's skin. "Call me Liam." His teeth slowly sank into the tender skin. A shiver went down Jaiden's spine. But instead of hurting, it felt more like healing. Something deeper than his flesh and blood was mended with every crimson drop that flowed out of him. His body relaxed and he let his head fall back. He enjoyed that strange tingling sensation that spread throughout his entire body and took control of him. He welcomed the darkness that took him away. He looked up to the moon, and for the first time in his life, there was a real smile on his face.
Now don't be shy.
Let me know what you liked, what you didn't like.
It will help improve my writing skills.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed it and keep a look out for chapter 4, in which you'll get a look at Jaiden's day-to-day live.

Santa Baby, Leave a BFP under the Tree for me <brook the Rat Smacketeers>(958 Posts)
Old Fred here
Here we go Brookers, it's been a long year with lots of BFPs and newborn snuggles for the Brookers. We're just a sleigh-ride away from 2013, when the rest of us will get our get our 12 week scans (because of course we will all have BFPs under the christmas tree this year!)
So come all ye brookers, it's tinsel and baubels all the way!
New Fred
Ladies I have given it my best shot!!
solars what fab fab fab news for your cousin. One cancelled iui and one failed iui, you say? Just like me...
cups what a stressful time for you and your family. Sending you good thoughts. Also well done on the sender interview.
So I am holed up in a hotel room with d&v. Nice. Food poisoning? A bug? I don't know, but it just started last night. Yuk
My niece is 27 months, and chatters away non stop. She's blond and curly, and adored by all Thais, including men.
Still no AF, or spotting. 17 days post trigger, 16 days post iui. Could this mean I didn't respond to the trigger, so iui would have been mistimed? We did keep on smacking the rat, but that would be annoying. Although I don't relish AF cramps to add to existing gut cramps.
Now, can someone start us a new thread?
im sick of this song in my head
Sorry to not check all, I feel rubbish...
Solars I was proper chuckling away then, an all of a sudden it diverted me to 'local slags'
I'm so pleased for your cousin, such lovely news.
Cups you're right to take a break tonight. It will do you the world of good
Beedle, Cups it was cousins first attempt at ivf, so was brilliant news as she'd never had a bfp before, she'd had one failed iui & one cancelled iui prior to this ivf cycle. So it really can happen, getting a result on the first attempt!
Cups that is excellent news about your job and everything crossed you get the result you want for Tuesdays interview. So sorry to hear about your grandad though, that's very sad. Your poor mum and nan, hopefully they will see it as the best place to get the care and attention he needs in a home but I can see where they are coming from.
Geek I hope you are beginning to recover now. I have now sent off the registration form for the new clinic, my gynae's secretary has assured me that the referral letter will go early next week. So lots more waiting still
and the potential for an ironic bfp Have you had your confirmation of your op date yet?
Maybe I wouldn't be insulted by the alpaca with your name thay can be quite cute until they get a hair cut like these
My sister has to go home tomorrow & my mum is going back on Saturday. That's why I'm going to try to miss tonight as it will be only be DH & I around for few days to look after my nan & visit him. My mum will be coming back next week sometime. My mum is struggling with it all, she feels like she is letting him down if she lets him go into a home & my nan really doesn't want him to go into one. Sorry for the me me me posts.
It's really hard seeing him like that, I keep thinking of how he used to be. My parents divorced when I was 2 and I have no contact with my dad so I'm very close to my grandad. I'm not visiting tonight unless my family need me to, I've been everyday this week & I really need a break.
I'm nervous about the interview on Tuesday, in a way I don't want the job as its a bit too far away. But I can't keep waiting for the perfect job to turn up around the corner.
Have you heard anything back yet Maybe? How you getting on with finishing off your work from the phd?
Cup well done on the interview front. Sorry to hear of your grandad, it is awful to see. We had an elderly aunt who was the sake. Coped ok at home but then went really down hill on rest bite care. She seemed fine in her home but as soon out of the familiar surrounding and routine dementia set in. She forgot she smoked within a week and had smoked 60 a day for 40 years. Hope you are ok, are your family with you supporting?
Oh Cups I am so sorry to hear about your Granddad. That must be so hard for him losing his memory so suddenly. How are you all coping?
That is fantastic news about your interview though, well done you. How are you feeling about the one on Tuesday? I am sure you will ace that one too.
Geek I am so jealous of your farmyard antics. I would love an alpaca so so much. At our local farm, there is one with my name. I didn't know whether to be insulted or not
Keep I'm so sorry about the BFN, I hope it's just too early. How are you feeling?
Maybe that's such good news about the appointment. March will be here before we know it. I can't believe it's nearly the end of jan already.
Geek I love Llamas, we have some at a nearby park (in fact it's where we got married & I really wanted a wedding pic with them but the farm part was closed that day ). I'm so jealous, hope your having a lovely day.
Sweetie/Sparkle I hate the ridiculously fertile pregnancy announcements. It's so smug and condescending .
Solars that's fantastic news about your cousin, I love hearing IVF success stories.
Ive had my first interview and I got offered the job, it's only adhoc as and when they need someone. I'm really happy though as with that experience I stand a much better chance of getting a full time job in that area. The interview was intense with lots of difficult scenarios so was good practice for my interview on tues.
My poor grandad is still not doing well, his memory has gone massively downhill and he is so confused. The hospital staff have said unless there is a vast improvement he will probably be unable to go home when he is medically better. They have told us to start thinking about care homes. It's so distressing as until last week he had no memory loss, it's just so sudden.
oh keep I'm so sorry. Damn those pesky pee sticks. Could it still be too early though? If AF is still staying away then there's hope.
Maybe good news about MrM's appointment! It must seem ages away to you now, but the time will fly by. At least there won't be any additional waiting time for IVF for you.
solars what is it with these consultants and their appointments? I'm so sorry you're having to play the waiting game too. It would be so much easier if we could just book these things online ourselves.
sweetie non-trying pg announcements are so poo. It's ok to be upset/angry/frustrated. We're here for you so rant all you need.
Very very sore and tired today, went to bed at 8pm last night, after sticking some farm photos on fb. Just glad it's the last day of the week today and I can almost have a lie in tomorrow. The farm was amazing fun, but incredibly hard work. Yesterday I got to manhandle a sheep, ride a goat (accidentally) and wear alpaca spit
solars that's good news about your cousin. Was it her first attempt with IVF?
Oh Keep I'm so sorry lovely. I too am hoping its just too early x
Oh Keep I'm so sorry, please be kind to yourself I was so hoping for you this morning, I got an excited call from a cousin yesterday who found out she is pg after going through an ivf cycle and was hoping there'd be more good news today from you too. I am hoping as others are that it could still be early.
Aw keep so sorry to hear that. Hope it is just a late implanted, just give it a few days to see if the witch turns up. Hope you are ok xx
Keep I am sorry
noooooo! that cannot possibly be right keep
Sorry to hear that keep Could it still be too early? Or is that just wishful thinking?
Oh my goodness amazing
Hallo brookers, just back from a hard day on the farm
I got spat on by a llama so will post properly after I've cleaned myself up and put everything I am wearing in the wash!
How right you are Solars I have never known myself wish away time quite as much as I am at the moment!!
Maybe that's great you've got a date for MrM, things could move on quite quickly from then and remember February is a short month
Solars it's so frustrating isn't it. Me referral was meant to be sent before Christmas. I chased it and found out it hadn't been sent. Just got a call from our clinic though and they have the letters and have booked MrM in for 4th March. There is no waiting list for IVF but they need him to see the urologist as he will need SSR. Just seems so far away!
<joins the waiting-for-a-peestick party outside keep's bathroom>
Sweetie rant away, it's what we're here for and can totally understand how you feel.
Keep how old is your niece? They are very cute when they are toddlers. Looking forward to your confirmation tomorrow. <pulls up a chair next to Keeps bathroom door>
Geek hope the farming is going well.
Maybe how are you doing lovely?
Not long now 'til your scan Face
I have just called my consultants secretary to ask about the referral and whether the letter has been sent. Apparently she still hasn't got the dictation and this is now almost 2 weeks on! She said it's quite likely to be done in the next week. Hmmm...

Mer Soleil 2006
With this vintage, the Mer Solei Chardonnay label now proudly displays the Santa Lucia Highlands appellation. We are pleased to be able to specify the growing area of our fruit and all it represents in the bottle.
Our Chardonnay from the Mer Solei Vineyard, located in this cool, dry part of the Monterey County on land we began cultivating in 1988, in now at full maturity. The sea ("Mer") and sun ("Solei") climate of this coastal appellation causes morning and evening fogs and warm, bright afternoons, a combination that helps produce the high-qualifty fruit we use to make this California-style Chardonnay.
With plantings at two separate locations in the Santa Lucia Highlands appellation of Monterey County, Mer Soleil's Chardonnay vines are nestled on east-facing lower slopes of the Sierra de Salinas range in what is one of the coolest, driest grape-growing areas in California. The climate of this coastal appellation causes morning and evening fogs and warm, bright afternoons, a combination that helps produce the high-quality fruit we use to make this bright, elegant Chardonnay.
Using multiple clones of Chardonnay, the vines are trained on three different trellis systems to enhance the potential for ripening, thinning and shading. Our familiarity with the property allows us to pick the vineyard blocks at peak conditions for extracting maximum quality.
Harvest began the 12th of October wirh clusters showing the dark gold, almost amber color we look for, and continued through the first week of November. Individual lots received extensive aging in French oak barrels before bottling.
Charlie Wagner II is a fourth-generation winemaker from a family with farming and winemaking roots in the Napa Valley since 1906. His first Mer Soleil bottling was produced from the 1997 vintage, and introduced the winemaking techniques he developed to create this unique, appealing Chardonnay style.
Tasting Notes - Mer Soleil 2006
Soft gold color. Richly perfumed nose, with light notes of honeysuckle, truffle and buttery oak. Full, layered flavors of tropical fruit are balanced by a bright acidity of sweet citrus, and linger through the long, creamy finish.
Charlie Wagner II
Release date: August 2008
Wine Spectator, June 30, 2009. Rated: 90 points "Ripe and delicious in a rich, opulent style, with a mix of tropical fruit, pineapple, citrus and nectarine. Full-bodied and fresh, with lively, cleansing acidity."
Wine Enthusiast, April 2009. Rated: 90 points "Year in and year out, Mer Solei's Chardonnay is one of the biggest, most distinctive ones in California. The '06 is almost like a late-harvest dessert wine, rich in apricot jam, pineapple custard, and new oak butterscotch flavors, but for all the opulence, it's entirely dry, and has zesty Monterey acidity. Almost a food group in itself, it will challenge chefs to rise to the occasion."
California Grapevine, August-September 2008. Rated: Very Highly Recommended "Attractive, intense, buttery, baked apple pie and tropical fruit aroma with prominent notes of butterscotch and honeysuckle; fullbody…creamy mouthfeel; Firmly structured, lingering aftertaste."

The State of Seafood ReportOur oceans are increasingly affected by human activities—primarily the ways we catch and farm seafood. Today, fish and other populations of ocean wildlife, from turtles to seabirds, are imperiled. Yet we appear to have reached a turning point, with many signs of hope for the future. Fishermen and consumers, businesses and governments recognize the threats. They are charting a new course, and cooperating in new ways.
Read our report, Turning the Tide: The State of Seafood, to learn more about the threats to our oceans, as well as the significant steps being taken to preserve what remains and restore what we've lost.

BPS sports back on track for today
Boston City League teams will resume play this afternoon after Tuesday's bus strike led to the postponement of 10 games around the city.
"It's a relief," said athletic director Ken Still. "I'm relieved especially for the kids, but also as far scheduling goes. Teams got an extra day of practice yesterday, too, so that was a positive."
Though the bus drivers went back to work this morning, it was at first unclear whether city sports could resume. But the athletic department worked hard to make sure the process went smoothly.
"We reschedule games on a consistent level," Still said. "We're absolutely fine. In fact, most of the games have already been rescheduled."
Around the league, coaches were happy to get back to the season.
"I'm excited," said Charlestown volleyball coach Tony Gearcy. "It's just really good for the kids."
His Charlestown team is facing English today, and Gearcy was at first unsure whether they'd be able to make the trip to Jamaica Plain.
But all is well again in the City League. With his retirement date edging closer, Still made sure to get everything back to normal.
"The last day I work is the 21st," he said. "But I'm using some vacation time to my advantage."

Swaziland is Africa's last absolute monarchy, found in the north-east of Southern Africa - it is surrounded for the most part by South Africa and on the Eastern side, by Mozambique. It is a small country, 175 kilometers north to south and about 130 kilometers across.
Swaziland gained independence from Great Britain in 1968 and has always consisted of a population of ethnic Swazis unified by a common language (iSiswati - similar to isiZulu) and governed by a king.
Swazis are proud people dedicated to cultural traditions and values. The king is known as the Ngwenyama and is the head of state, currently King Mswati III. The current king replaced his father, the much loved King Sobhuza II in 1986. The king traditionally rules with his mother, known as the Ndlovukati. The king will appoint the prime minister who is head of government, this monarchial parliamentary system is well supported by the majority of the populace.
The majority of the population is still rural and traditional round mud-hut homes are dotted over the kingdom together in communities or homesteads which allow families access to land, subsistence agriculture and a base for family members. Most of the land is controlled by a strict chiefdom system which allocates plots and oversees their usage. Life at a homestead is simple, although electricity is becoming more widespread - many homes still are without. Free range livestock roams around and fruit and vegetables, including the staple corn (mielies) are grown in many of the homesteads, this is still a key feature of the strong relationship Swazi's have with the land and the benefits it brings. Swaziland's mild climate, especially where we are located in the North East is mild and ideal for growing subtropical fruits like mangoes, avocados, paw-paws and citrus fruits. Although in recent years low rainfall has placed pressure on the yields of agriculture.
In Swaziland the handcraft industry thrives on local skills used for woodwork, stone carving, glassware and beaded jewelry, basket making and weaving. There are well established craft businesses which make high quality, well designed products and a trip to Swaziland should involve visiting some of the craft shops and studios. Roadside craft also offers authentic and quality objects like grass carpets, stone carvings and baskets. You can also be assured of a friendly smile and positive interaction with vendors. Swazis are warm and welcoming people and take great pride in their craft work.
Nevertheless, I love this quote about Swaziland:
"It is important not to illustrate Swaziland as a "tin-pot" kingdom with poverty banging on the door of every mud hut in the kingdom. It is a magical place in Africa with a very distinct personality, which times seems to have left behind. We have a bright future here and we will shine, but like many of the roads in Africa, ours is littered with potholes" (Frances Stephens)

we put the girls down sunday night and because it's been in the 90's, had the windows closed and a/c on.
zach went outside to work while a friend and i chatted and cleaned up dinner. out of no where, the shrieking beep, beep beep.
the smoke detector started going off in the girls room.
i flew in their room…nothing.
i couldn't figure out how to get the alarm to stop, so i had my friend go get zach who happened to be working across the field. i yell for him and he comes home to check what's going on.
something just felt off. i knew the battery wasn't dead and that it was probably nothing, but i couldn't ignore that awful feeling in the pit of my stomach.
i went back and forth.. call 911? sound like an idiot? i know, i'm over reacting. i've turned off alarms before, probably too many times to count. but it was in their room and i knew i wouldn't sleep if we ignored it.
so, we made the decision: go get the girls, take them outside and call 911.
the fire chief came first and then the fire truck. the chief went in with zach to make sure there wasn't any trace of carbon monoxide.
and there was.
we had carbon monoxide in our house.
that alarm i almost ignored probably saved our lives.
we had opened the windows so the readings weren't as accurate as they would have liked, but there was enough down in our basement for them to identify that it was coming from our water heater because it wasn't burning correctly.
we have one CO detector in our house, which happened to be in the girls room.
that will be changing tomorrow, along with getting a new water heater.
the only reason i even thought twice about the alarm was because a local family recently fell victim to this silent killer… a very sad and tragic accident.
so, please, take our story as a reminder. make sure you have CO detectors in your house. and don't ignore them. it's too easy to think you're overreacting. but on the chance that you aren't… just call. it could save your life.
a few things you need to know about carbon monoxide:
CO can't be seen, smelled or heard, but it can be stopped
each year, more than 400 Americans die from unintentional CO poisoning
have your heating system, water heater, or any other gas appliances serviced each year.
install battery-operated CO detectors near every sleeping area in your home and make sure they are working properly.
in adults, early symptoms of CO poisoning mimic flu-like symptoms including vomiting, dizziness, headache which can then lead to passing out or death.
infants, elderly and people with heart disease, anemia or breathing problems may be more susceptible to severe symptoms which can become more severe, more quickly
NEVER ignore an alarm and always call for CO levels to be inspected if you or someone in your house is experiencing symptoms.
i've said it before and i'll say it again, there is something to be said for trusting your mom-gut. thank God we had a detector in their room and thank God it was working.
my stomach hurts thinking of what could have been had i just turned off that alarm.
so for now, i will praise God that he was protecting our most precious gifts.

The two contenders for Juneau's Mendenhall Valley seat in the Alaska House of Representatives are split on the $315 million transportation bond on the November ballot.
Incumbent Rep. Andrea Doll, D-Juneau, said it is too much money, but challenger Cathy Muñoz said any money spent in Juneau is a good reason to vote for the proposition.
The two are stepping outside traditional party stereotypes, with the Democrat urging fiscal conservatism, while the Republican is supporting borrowing to increase spending.
The Juneau project proposes improvements to the intersection of Glacier Highway and Back Loop Road, in the middle of the valley district both candidates are contesting. House District 4 runs from the valley north through Auke Bay and up Lynn Canal.
Doll split with other members of the Juneau delegation to oppose the measure.
"If these projects are that important, we should have paid for them," Doll said, with some of the surplus that is being saved for later.
Now, she said, the bill for those bonds is likely to come due after oil production has declined and Alaska isn't making enough from oil revenues to support state government operating costs, let alone capital projects.
Muñoz said she supported the bond issue even though only a tiny fraction of the money went to Juneau. Other Southeast communities with struggling economies get needed help, she said, criticizing Doll's opposition.
"I think that sends a message to our other communities, that are suffering an extreme decline in population, that we don't support them," she said.
She likened that to people in Juneau not speaking up to support Ketchikan when its Gravina Island bridge project was canceled by Gov. Sarah Palin.

Failure to discover a manageable server can be caused by many different issues. This section provides guidelines and references to help you resolve each issue.
The following topics are discussed:
Manageable servers based on the Remote System Control (RSC) technology, such as Sun Fire V490 and V890 series servers, must be powered off before they can be discovered by N1 System Manager. RSC servers must remain powered off until discovery is complete and discovery has been confirmed by using the show server command.
The first time the show server command is used to identify a newly discovered RSC server, the command can take up to 5 minutes to complete.
The console of an RSC server must not be in use when being discovered. These servers must also be bench configured prior to discovery. For details on bench configuration of RSC servers, see Preparing RSC-based Manageable Servers in Sun N1 System Manager 1.3 Site Preparation Guide.
If the RSC manageable server was not powered off before being discovered by N1 System Manager, the server MAC address is not detected. Subsequent attempts to load an OS on the server fail with the following message:
Operation failed
In this case, stop the managed server:
N1-ok> stop server server force true
Refresh the managed server to retrieve the server's MAC address:
N1-ok> set server server refresh
This command can take up to 5 minutes to complete. Once complete, an OS can be provisioned on to the RSC server using N1 System Manager.
The managed server firmware might be too old.
Verify the firmware version and, if necessary, update the firmware. For a list of qualified firmware versions, see Manageable Server Firmware Requirements in Sun N1 System Manager 1.3 Site Preparation Guide.
If discovery fails, the target server has reached its maximum number of SNMP connections if the following is contained in the job output:
Error. The limit on the number of SNMP destinations has been exceeded.
The service processor of the Sun Fire V20z and V40z server has a limit of three SNMP destinations. To see the current SNMP destinations, perform the following steps:
Log into the service processor using SSH.
Run the following command:
sp get snmp-destinations
The SNMP destinations appear in the output.
If there are three destinations for a V20z or a V40z, discovery will fail. The failure occurs because the N1 System Manager adds another snmp-destination to the service processor during discovery.
The SNMP destinations can be configured in a service processor by N1 System Manager or some other management software. You can delete entries from the SNMP destinations if you know that the SNMP destination entry is no longer needed. This would be the case if you discovered the target server using N1 System Manager on one management server and then decided to not use that management server without deleting the server. You can use the sp delete snmp-destination command on the service processor if you need to delete an entry. Use the delete command with caution because some other management software may need the entry for monitoring. A manageable server's SNMP destination is deleted, however, when the server is deleted from the N1 System Manager using the delete server command. It is best practice always to use the delete server command when removing a manageable server.

I posted a tweet earlier this week asking for suggestions on what I should drink during the Superbowl party. While seemingly very simple I consider this a very interesting and very important question. See I don't like football. I go to a Superbowl party every year and rarely do I watch much of the game. My favorite Superbowl memory is Bruce Springsteen sliding crotch first into the camera in 2009 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOhhEMn-8D8). So I go to the parties for the social aspect. I get to hang out with friends, drink, and eat. The Superbowl simply provides a great excuse. So what to drink actually becomes a very important question. @brewersofcanada of course replied with "Canadian Beer", @mikelillie claimed there is no option but to drink Bud Light (while that is one of my least favorite beers on the planet I can see where he is going with it), @beerhunter4u replied and suggested I pick up some Crazy Canuck and 666 Devils Pale Ale, and finally I caught another post that argued there is no place for wine on the Superbowl menu.
Playing the wine blogger and devils advocate I would argue you can very cleverly pair many wines with your classic chicken wings, chili or nachos (perhaps a riesling, chianti, or a cava). Really any classic Superbowl munchie could be paired with the right wine. However the realist in me also doesn't see wine playing much of a role in the Superbowl festivities.
All of these folks make very interesting comments and in my opinion all are in a way right. If you're going to go watch the Superbowl just make it a beer. There is not much more synonymous with American football than beer. But as much as I would almost always agree with the pro Canadian sentiments of @brewersofcanada I think I have to go American on this one. But sorry @mikelillie I'm not going Bud Light I will be showing up with something quite a bit more tolerable… Rolling Rock it is.
Enjoy the game and whatever it is you choose to drink.
– Mark

It's not just any Sunday, this one happens to be Super! If you're over the game, or don't know what game I'm referring to, then join me at 7PM Pacific, 10PM Eastern for a look at the week's news and events.
We'll cover the latest Lion update, warts and all, as well as Siri's sitcom debut. If you want to make sure we talk about your favorite topic, get there early and let me know so we can get it on the list.
Your calls and questions help us make the show the best it can be, otherwise I'm just talking to myself! To participate on TalkShoe, you can use the browser-only client, the embedded Facebook app, or download the classic TalkShoe Pro Java client; however, for maximum fun, you should call in. For the web UI, just click the Talkshoe Web button on our profile page at 4 HI/7 PDT/10 pm EDT Sunday. To call in on regular phone or VoIP lines (yay for free cellphone weekend minutes!): dial (724) 444-7444 and enter our talkcast ID, 45077 -- during the call, you can request to talk by keying in *8.
If you've got a headset or microphone handy on your Mac, you can connect via the free Gizmo, X-Lite, or Blink SIP clients; basic instructions are here. Talk to you tonight!
