Shares of Ruby Tuesday (RT) headed south immediately after the restaurant chain reported fiscal third-quarter earnings last night, but they've recovered impressively and are now up more than 6% to $8.65.
Here's the chart:
(Click for larger version.)
What happened? Well, the quarterly numbers weren't good — profit fell 52%, revenue came in below consensus and same-restaurant sales were down 2.8%. But there was also some good news:
The company raised its adjusted earnings outlook for the year, now forecasting 28 cents to 32 cents a share, from its previous estimate of 24 cents to 30 cents. Ruby Tuesday backed its expectation of flat same-store sales growth for the year.
Today's investor optimism is captured in a note by Raymond James analyst Bryan Elliott published this morning:
While F3Q results were a modest disappointment, we are encouraged that recent changes in menu and marketing strategy seem to be showing signs of early traction. If this sustains and new management's broader repositioning efforts ultimately prove successful, we see significant upside in the company's sales and profitability metrics from currently-depressed levels. We also believe downside risk should be mitigated by the company's significant real estate assets (over 300 units, fair value $500-600 million vs. current EV of $766 million) and share repo power (could potentially buy back~25%+ of current market cap over next two years).
Elliott reiterated his Outperform 2 rating for the stock and raised his price target to $9 a share from $8.50.
Barron's wrote a bullish piece on Ruby Tuesday (subscription required) a couple of weeks ago, with David Englander pointing to new management and a new strategy as reasons to believe the stock could rise:
Management is targeting Ebitda, or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, of $125 million to $135 million in three years. That's roughly 40% higher than the $92.5 million expected this year.
Ben Claremon, an analyst at Cove Street Capital, recently said the shares could be worth $13 if Ebitda margins return to 12% in three years from a current 8%. They're down from 16% in 2007.

Just curious to hear from those who have done it...
When did you transition from one into the other?
For example; Did you move from the puppy program then start from the begining of Lardys TRT ?
Or did you move from Hillmanns puppy program, then into Hillmanns force fetch, then jump right into Lardys program after the force fetch (so picking up Lardys program around simple casting).
Weather is still horribly cold here so I'm just sitting around thinking and watching dog videos. My next pup I plan to use Hillmann puppy then go into Lardys TRT and was just contemplating how I want to move from the puppy program into the total dog program.

kde-devel has this long winded discussion about threads. I obviously love threads, and Waldo said the cutest thing:
I mean, we allow people to do evil things like indenting with tabs, so why not allow them to use threads as well?
He enclosed that in the "Insane" XML tag, though, and I was quick to use that to my defense. I like tabs as well.

|>> Archive: Warmwater Gamefish Flies Freshwater Bass, pike, muskie?!?
|Topic Review (Newest First)
While on the subject of carp flies, I've had them take P&Os in moving water but I've never had the same success in stillwater. My only stillwater hookups have been when I've targeting smallies and ended up with a golden bone peeling line instead.
Once in a while, I'd be able to get back to where I fished as a kid. There's this small bay on the St. Lawrence that holds huge pods of carp. I'd use an 8 wt. to toss long a large bushy dry to one side of the pod. On each cast, one fish would detach itself from the pod, slowly cruise over, tilt up, inspect the fly, then circle back to the pod. I could usually get four or five fish to check out the fly until they lost interest altogether, but I could never get them to take. I've tried movement, no movement, nothing. They were interested though.

|I've found the yarn at a variety of craft stores & Walmart. Interesting material to tie with.
I'm sure other types of yarn or large chenille would work too.
Needloft Plastic Canvas Yarn
Where did you get the yarn.
Berry Fly (Carp Swap Entry)
This is the first pattern I thought of when I signed up for this swap, but I wasn't sure if it was "swap worthy" because it is so simple to tie and uses minimal materials. I did ten of these (2 each) but also sent a batch of brown woolly buggers so you each get one of those as well . The woolly bugger has been very successful in the lakes, while the berry fly works well in the river. The berry will float until it gets waterlogged. I use fluoro leaders to help them sink. Never tried fishing one on top. Hmmm . . .
I alread posted the recipe here but here's an update:
Hook: # 8 Gamakatsu C14S Glo-Bug (short shank, heavy wire)
Thread: White or colored to match body
Body: Purple and orange Needloft Plastic Canvas Yarn (other materials and colors will work)
Crush the barb of the hook. Tie the thread on near the bend. Cut a few 3/4" to 1" pieces of yarn. I use 4 - 6 pieces of purple and 3 or 4 pieces of orange. Hold 2 or 3 yarn strips together at one end and comb out the yarn to separate the fibers. Switch ends and comb out the whole length. Tie the fibers onto the shank as if you were spinning deer hair. I make a couple turns of thread, then fold the fibers back and make a couple more turns, add a drop of cement and tie on the next bunch. Work from the hook bend forward, tying in one bunch of yarn at a time, then tie off and cement the thread. Trim the fibers to the desired shape, making them short enough on the bottom so they don't block the hook point and prevent hookups.
Fish it motionless on the bottom or drifting/sinking in a slow current (or on top? )

India has just voted the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) into power in a big way, putting Narendra Modi in office as prime minister. Modi is a pragmatist, focused on economic growth and good governance. But he's also a polarizing figure, under whose watch bloody Hindu-Muslims riots occured in 2002 in Gujarat -- leading the United States to deny him a visa in 2005. Although Modi has been exonerated by the Indian legal system, his past, coupled with concerns among the Indian and global human rights community, presents challenges for U.S. engagement. But the U.S. relationship with India is too important to allow drift to set in. Washington should meet Modi on pragmatic ground, and reframe the relationship in practical terms of mutually beneficial cooperation.
Modi spent most of his professional life in the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), or National Volunteers' Organization, a conservative Hindu nationalist organization, and hails from a subordinate caste group, yet he rose from chief minister of Gujarat to prime minister in under 15 years. His political rise represents a story of merit unencumbered by disadvantages of birth. But he has become indelibly associated with the tragedy of the 2002 Gujarat riots, where intra-communal violence led to the death of more than 1,000 people, mainly Muslims. At best, Modi was seen as not acting quickly or decisively enough to prevent the mayhem; his detractors accused him of fomenting it.

Caught a snip of Barbara Boxer on C-span this AM. She was asking how the R Congressman could face their staff when decreasing their wages by removing their subsidy for health insurance. Yes, it is probably harder to face someone directly in doing so ... yet, it is easy to do the same thing to millions of Americans whom you do not have to face.
It is very likely that if those staffers were earning the same wage in the private sector, most would not qualify for subsidies. If they worked for a small company, they might even lose their jobs entirely, or become part-time workers.
I see a lot of "disconnect" if she can see the harm done to these staffers ... and NOT see the same harm being done to millions of others. She has just admitted that the law does real harm to those in the middle class ... but only the ones she has to face count for her.

He has a 5x15 inside kennel with a nice big insulated dog house with electric heat in the ceiling for added warmth during the winters and a dog bed to sleep on and a 30x60 outside run to stretch his legs lol. I have been fighting the same battle over and over about having him in the house but no luck. But once I finish the basement (man cave) he will be allowed down there only while im down there so its a start! But I hope I make the right decision getting another pup ir not due to he is not a pheasant dog strictly duck dog due to his tempermant.

Maybe instead of getting the new pup, you spend the time training your current dog to be a better indoor dog. Can you train it so it won't piss on the furniture? Hard to blame the wife for being POed () about that. Pitching in with the vacuuming of dog hair and dog debris might go a long way, too,

What do you look for in a home and garden magazine?
Re-examining the concept behind Charleston Home has prompted quite a bit of thought about what we require from our precious home and garden magazines. We all have them, piles of back issues with a variety of titles, some with ripped-out pages—I even have some missing their covers. (For me, shelter magazines aren't items to be treated with reverence. Dismantling them is part of the fun.) And even though I'm reading these magazines both as a consumer and as an editor, my goals aren't that different. I read them to find usable ideas. Whether it's articles that inspire or how-tos or recipes, I'm looking for things that I can apply directly to my own life. And I ask my friends too: what magazines do they rely on and why? Everyone has a different inspiration portfolio, and while each can say so much about the individual reader, a look at the magazines we collect says a lot about what we, as a whole, need from them.
Again, everyone's list is different, but here's a partial rundown of what has guided me both at both home and at work:
-Old issues of Blueprint are like friends to me. The information is absolutely accessible and relevant to my living spaces—they struck a good balance of inspiration and actionable info. From how to stock the bar to cell phone etiquette, I appreciated their vision. It was dead on.
-I've learned a lot from Elle Decor about room composition; particularly, the different ways furnishings and accessories come together to create a look. Simply training your eye through photographs is a great way to learn how to navigate your own spaces (I started my career editing blurbs about home and garden books, which left me with stacks of design books to page through. I think just soaking that up really helped to train my eye.) Also, the houses in this magazine take risks, which serve as a good gauge of my own tastes and affinities.
-Country Home taught me how to make the most of secondhand finds. Minimal cost, maximum creativity. I like that.
-Martha Stewart Living is fabulous for practical planting advice. If she shows you a gorgeous garden, she's going to give you all the elements that are at play. The last thing I want is to see a pretty space, but walk away without any more knowledge than I started with.
-I look to a number of sources for good recipes: Martha Stewart's Everyday Food is very good and I've used several recipes in Every Day with Rachael Ray. I think I favor both of those because you get a lot of recipes in just one issue. Good bang for your buck.
Those are just a few. In the meantime, what inspires you? We'd love to hear about your faves.

From This Story

"There was nothing special about it," says Scott S. Sheads, historian at Baltimore's Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine, speaking of a time when a new nation was struggling for survival and groping toward a collective identity. That all changed in 1813, when one enormous flag, pieced together on the floor of a Baltimore brewery, was first hoisted over the federal garrison at Fort McHenry. In time the banner would take on larger meaning, set on a path to glory by a young lawyer named Francis Scott Key, passing into one family's private possession and emerging as a public treasure.
Succeeding generations loved and honored the Stars and Stripes, but this flag in particular provided a unique connection to the national narrative. Once it was moved to the Smithsonian Institution in 1907, it remained on almost continuous display. After almost 200 years of service, the flag had slowly deteriorated almost to the point of no return. Removed from exhibit in 1998 for a conservation project that cost about $7 million, the Star-Spangled Banner, as it had become known, returns to center stage this month with the reopening of the renovated National Museum of American History on the National Mall in Washington, D.C.
Its long journey from obscurity began on a blazing July day in 1813, when Mary Pickersgill, a hardworking widow known as one of the best flag makers in Baltimore, received a rush order from Maj. George Armistead. Newly installed as commander of Fort McHenry, the 33-year-old officer wanted an enormous banner, 30 by 42 feet, to be flown over the federal garrison guarding the entrance to Baltimore's waterfront.
There was some urgency to Armistead's request. The United States had declared war in June 1812 to settle its disputed northern and western borders and stop the British from impressing American seamen; the British, annoyed by American privateering against their merchant ships, readily took up the challenge. As the summer of 1813 unfolded, the enemies were trading blows across the Canadian border. Then British war vessels appeared in the Chesapeake Bay, menacing shipping, destroying local batteries and burning buildings up and down the estuary. As Baltimore prepared for war, Armistead ordered his big new flag—one the British would be able to see from miles away. It would signal that the fort was occupied and prepared to defend the harbor.
Pickersgill got right to work. With her daughter Caroline and others, she wrestled more than 300 yards of English worsted wool bunting to the floor of Claggett's brewery, the only space in her East Baltimore neighborhood large enough to accommodate the project, and started measuring, snipping and fitting.
To make the flag's stripes, she overlapped and stitched eight strips of red wool and alternated them with seven strips of undyed white wool. While the bunting was manufactured in 18-inch widths, the stripes in her design were each two feet wide, so she had to splice in an extra six inches all the way across. She did it so smoothly that the completed product would look like a finished whole—and not like the massive patchwork it was. A rectangle of deep blue, about 16 by 21 feet, formed the flag's canton, or upper left quarter. Sitting on the brewery floor, she stitched a scattering of five-pointed stars into the canton. Each one, fashioned from white cotton, was almost two feet across. Then she turned the flag over and snipped out blue material from the backs of the stars, tightly binding the edges; this made the stars visible from either side.
"My mother worked many nights until 12 o'clock to complete it in the given time," Caroline Pickersgill Purdy recalled years later. By mid-August, the work was done—a supersize version of the Stars and Stripes. Unlike the 13-star ensign first authorized by Congress on June 14, 1777, this one had 15 stars to go with the 15 stripes, acknowledging the Union's latest additions, Vermont and Kentucky.
Mary Pickersgill delivered the finished flag on August 19, 1813, along with a junior version. The smaller flag, 17 by 25 feet, was to be flown in inclement weather, saving wear and tear on the more expensive one, not to mention the men who hoisted the unwieldy monster up the flagpole.
The government paid $405.90 for the big flag, $168.54 for the storm version (roughly $5,500 and $2,300, respectively, in today's currency). For a widow who had to make her own way, Pickersgill lived well, eventually buying a brick house on East Pratt Street, supporting her mother and daughter there and furnishing the place with luxuries such as floor coverings of painted sailcloth.

When Sen. Corker thinks the Ds are over-reaching, it must be pretty bad. While we have been talking about the Rs caving in due to the number of compromise proposals they have presented, the Ds keep wanting more ... even more than their original demands. Is it that the Ds smell blood in the water as the Rs try to find some proposal that will move the discussions off the dime? Or is it that they truly want to push this thing to the brink?
The latest is that the Ds want to roll back the sequester cuts, on top of everything else they have wanted up to this point. Will even the Ds turn against the POTUS?Two top senators gave bleak assessments Sunday of the likelihood of Congress swiftly reaching deals to end one fiscal crisis and avert another, with the Republican lawmaker saying Democrats are now overreaching in their demands."We will see our way through this, but the last 24 hours have not been good," Tennessee Sen. Bob Corker told "Fox News Sunday." "I agree that Republicans started with the overreach, but now Democrats are one tick too cute. They are now overreaching."
Corker argues that Senate Democrats want Republicans, as part of the fiscal negotiations, to roll back the steep cuts to government spending, known as sequester and signed into law in the 2011 Budget Control Act.
He told Fox News the cuts are just as much the law of the land as ObamaCare, which Republicans tried to dismantle in the deals – one to end the partial shutdown of government services that started Oct. 1 and another to agree on the nation's borrowing limit before Thursday's deadline.
Corker also said he thinks the White House told Senate Democrats earlier in the weekend to pull back.
Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., is among 24 senators who have given bipartisan support to a proposal put forth by Maine GOP Sen. Susan Collins that Majority Leader Harry Reid rejected Sunday.
Manchin told Fox News he had "no idea" what Senate leadership now wants or where negotiations will go next.

Winter is long gone, this snowboard powder bum is depressed.
I just int10 booted the x86 bios on a r128 PCI graphics card on my Sparc SunBlade-100. Life is... ummm... good? Will be cleaning up these xf86-4.1.x mods and trying out tdfx and other cards tomorrow. Maybe I'll even get r128 DRI working on this box, which would be nice. Gareth Hughes promised he would help.
What does this mean? Well basically I can now multi-head Creator3D/Elite3D UPA boards, mach64 ATI cards with Sun firmware, and off the shelf PCI graphics cards with x86 bios on them.
I think I'll setup some scary Xinerama 6 head configuration using the endless supply of monitors I have here, just to scare the wife when she gets home :-)
In other news, linux-kernel thinks I'm a communist, I've become a gonzo journalism addict, and I've joined the playboy cyber club.
I've driven my pathfinder roughly 1,000 miles since my most recent powder day in the Sierras. I'm so pathetic, I know...

Find a Security Vulnerability, Get a Reward: Announcing EFF's Security Vulnerability Disclosure Program
At EFF we put security and privacy first. This means working hard at keeping our members and site visitors safe, as well as the people who use the software we develop. We also dedicate staff time to advising security researchers, maintaining resources like our Coders' Rights Project, and helping groups like Facebook improve their bug reporting policies.
Earlier this summer, when FBI Director James Comey made his case for backdooring strong encryption, he told us that he wanted to hash out the policy considerations surrounding encryption, law enforcement, and security in public: "Democracies resolve such tensions through robust debate." This week, we learned that Comey apparently actually meant that he wanted the debate resolved in secret, before a judge known only to the government, by way of a sealed wiretap order.
As we say goodbye to another summer of computer security conferences, we would like to take a moment to extend our thanks to the countless people who helped bolster civil liberties defense this year in Las Vegas. Organizers and attendees at Security BSides Las Vegas, Black Hat USA, DEF CON, and the kid-focused r00tz Asylum are all part of the ever-growing movement to defend digital freedom. As "hacking" loses some of its stigma, it serves us well to remember that at its core, hacking is about curiosity, problem-solving, and innovation. These key principles help ensure that technology can work in our favor and remains in our control.
The maintainer of GoAgent, one of China's more popular censorship circumvention tools emptied out the project's main source code repositories on Tuesday. Phus Lu, the developer, renamed the repository's description to "Everything that has a beginning has an end". Phus Lu's Twitter account's historywas also deleted, except for a single tweet that linked to a Chinese translation of Alexander Solzhenitsyn's "Live Not By Lies". That essay was originally published in 1974 on the day of the Russian dissident's arrest for treason.
Readers of these pages will be familiar with the debate going on between government officials and technologists around the world about law enforcement's perceived need to access the content of any and all encrypted communications.1

In comparing methods on how to come up with this list, my method's first purpose is to decide WHO WILL ACTUALLY BE ON THE LIST.
SKEPTICS: Note that in terms of just writing in the highest vote getters of any round in descending order, we have the Mother Ewok in the No.7 spot? That's where she landed before she ever had to compete against ANY character other than another Ewok.
Meanwhile, softgoods Black Travel Queen has NEVER competed with any of the figures you see on the list of choices above. That's why if she comes in, she comes in high and is then allowed to "sink." If she even comes on, and then falls off, she's not worthy of the list.
Now, true she could be saved by 1 person (temporarily). Look who's at their last chance now: Jango and Slim Aloo.
In terms of times to strategically vote to keep a character ON the list, now's especially tough. If I'm the ONLY one who wants Jango Fett and Slim Aloo, I have a difficult choice to make. Plus there's Luke Recovery Room slipping off the edge and I want to keep him too. Young Owen's also important to me to a great degree, but I figure he has more support from others here. If I really AM the only one supportive of Slim or Jango, I have to decide because I can keep only 1.
While that 1 might come in at the No.4 position with my write-in at this poll - the save is very temporary, because I'll probably have to help Luke Recovery Room next time, and I can't keep on proping up my choice this time.
What if he comes in so high and I'm the only one who wants him? In terms of who should be on the list period, we might have a "removal vote" to eliminate any excess of characters over 50 on our list. It will be whichever 1,2, or 3 characters have the most votes to go. That way it's fair if the last round of write-ins allowed unrealistically keep someone on the list. But the system should still weed them out.
After that, a locked-list round of voting should rank the characters appropriately, but once the list can't have ANY fall-offs, our job is really done - we have discovered the 50 most-wanted.
I'll be writing in Jango Fett, out of armor, Kamino apartment.
Vote now.

BAD Pts Need: R5-C7 lf leg (x2), , R4-P44 right leg BAD Pts Offered For Trade: PM me - I have lots of parts now including BG-J38!. New Kyle Katarn is also available.
Herme Odel, Jabba the Hutts Palace
More is more. Less is less, Twice as much is good too,
Too much is never enough except when it's just about right.
People who have helped me out: DarthChuckMc, msjedi, bobafett07728, jjreason, dr_evazan22
Padme Black Leather Temptation is lowest on this list of the ones I want, so she gets the vote.
[FONT=Book Antiqua]He passes to Moses - He shoots, he scores![/FONT]
Mummy of the raincoat is a gigantic trollop.
Commander Tey How
I'll vote to push 48) Young Owen Lars up the list. You were right, Tycho, he does have support.
Hope the Saurin and Bom Vimdim get bumped up the list!
Tycho, if we end up with 51 on the list, rather than forcing someone off, why don't you just put the handmaiden as an unranked competitor with an asterisk. We pretty much now we're going to get her, we just have to see it in plastic to make sure it is the generic orange handmaiden we all have in mind.

I'd kind of like a softgoods Travel Gown Amidala -- be nice to go with that starship that I hope I'll have room to display some day. But...
I do have room to display Saurin, Hrcheck Kal Fas right now though. (And I really hope CZ-3 gets a vote, 'cause it's all about Mos Eisley right now.)
You're right plasticfetish, for me, it is also all about Mos Eisley. 12 of my personal Top 50 list are from Mos Eisley. Including Jabba's Palace and a few prequel characters 33 of my Top 50 characters are from the planet Tatooine. I hope CZ-3 makes the cut too, but I have other folks to protect so I likely won't ever get to vote for him. Another reason I hope CZ makes the cut is because CZ was the figure B'Omarr Monkey said he wanted most before he left the thread.

Moff Jerrjerod. You could give him a dying by Royal Guard force pike action feature.
Up, up, and OKAAAAY!!!
Worry not fellas, if I have anything to say about it CZ-3 will make the final cut. It and R5-D4 are the droids I've been looking for.

text: Well.. Finally after about a year of being a support lacky at Linux.com. I stepped down from being the PM for support. Due to lack of interest... In other words I got really really tired of answering how do I install my modem. 20 times a day. On a plus side The freaky sketching by Lucian Freud that was peering into my window for 2 months was finally taken down. The Carnegie Museum of art now has this really groovy Aluminium display on the side of the building. Its pretty neat. Lastly, since I am no longer really doing any work for linux.com I went and joined themes.org. I have volunteered to help them out with alot of PHP code, so Im looking forward to helping them out.

¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
Almost done with Just After Sunset by Stephen King. I like it a lot, the stories are pretty interesting.
You'll be sorry, Pee-Wee Herman!
Received (and finished) A-20 Havoc in Action yesterday. Nice, concise guide to the genesis and development of the Havoc and Boston (the British variant). Interesting (and sad) how quickly it was scrapped after WWII. Almost none survive. Also amazing that it was such an integral part of tactical air support in every theater yet the plane is not well known at all.
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
Finally finished the King book....started and am almost finished with Artie Lange's book Too Fat to Fish. Pretty crazy stuff for anyone who's a fan of him would expect.
You'll be sorry, Pee-Wee Herman!
I started Monte Cassino, about the WWII Italy battle.
Since CW: Wild Space, I got halfway through A Time for Trumpets, about the Battle of the Bulge (had to return it to the library) and The Force Unleashed.
Started Republic Commando True Colors. Also read my copy of C&E News for the week, Science, Nature, BioTechniques and Neuroscience.
Star Wars & GI Joe Customs
HAVES: HK-50 Head, Capt Typho & GI Joe fodder available still
Wants:L8-L9 Head, YVH-1 Complete (as possible),R7-T1 Complete (as possible),R7-Z0 Complete (as possible)
The other day I finished reading Command Of Honor: General Lucian Truscott's Path to Victory in World War II. Gen. Truscott founded the Rangers, commanded in Africa, Sicily, Italy, planned and led the invasion of Southern France (Opperation Dragoon). He took over for Patton in occupied Germany after Ike had to give him the boot. After the war Truscott worked for the CIA.
Re-read Tuesdays with Morrie yesterday. Felt like I needed to read something sad...not sure why. Gonna hopefully read all of The Five People you Meet in Heaven today.
You'll be sorry, Pee-Wee Herman!
I finished Douglas Havoc and Boston, the DB-7/A-20 series by Scott Thompson.
If this isn't the definitive study on the aircraft, I don't know what is. Thompson's work looks at the plane from drawing board to its demise. It also explains why most of us have never heard of the Havoc: the majority were scrapped in theater and never made it home. Only a few survived as surplus and then sold as such (Howard Hughes bought two from the government and converted them into executive aircraft). Less than two dozen survive worldwide in various states from mere parts to the one and only air-worthy ship.
The A-20 was a then-state of the art aircraft loved and appreciated by those who flew it. It's sad that such a veteran WWII work horse is virtually unknown given its role in the war effort (pre-European invasion, Battle of the Bulge, Pacific Theatre, etc.)
Written more for aviation historians (and pilots), the book wasn't too far over my head in places to follow. Great info, photos, and diagrams on the aircraft. It answered all of the questions I had regarding the Havoc and more!
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
I'd set a deadline to read the book I'd started BEFORE Feb. 13 (a personal anniversary date), which then became finishing it before that day ENDED. Well, by 10:30pm or so, I did it. William Least-Heat Moon's most recent book Roads to Quoz: An American Mosey, all 567 pages of it, are now in my memory. I like his style (see favorite authors list to come), his wordiness (it's a good thing here), his humor (often subtle, sometimes LOL-worthy), his passion (not afraid to insert an opinion, but usually lets the other people tell the story). I love to read about places, travel, and history; he gives you that and more.

Jim Hoagland writes that President Obama should be careful in planning major policies for the second term. Barring surprises, he writes, recent history shows that if re-elected at all, presidents get caught up in resolving issues created in their first terms.
Long ago in Washington political years, in the days of Jimmy Carter's presidency, I grumbled to a senior diplomat that the administration had no strategy to start dismantling the trade embargo on Cuba. His reply still rings in my mind: "Don't be so impatient. That is for the second Carter term."
Presidents (and aides) who count on striding the earth as policy-morphing giants once they have conquered the pesky challenge of reelection are not fooling voters so much as fooling themselves. They do not get a Harry Potter wand even if they survive at the ballot box. They are still bound by the same bundle of internal compromises and future needs that constrain the modern-day politician. And the world is inevitably less impressed with their second presidential victory than are they.
President Obama's accidental disclosure this week of ambitions to be more flexible toward Russia on missile defense after Nov. 6 is not an isolated example of his second-term frame of mind. He has fine-tuned many foreign policy decisions — on Iran, the Middle East crisis, relations with European allies — to leave hard challenges until after he has fought his last election. But that does not mean that he will overhaul U.S. options after Election Day, even if he is able to.

By Emily Wagster Pettus/The Associated Press
JACKSON — The Mississippi Supreme Court says it won't undo a circuit judge's order that's blocking an open-carry gun law from taking effect.
Justices say they made their decision for procedural reasons, not on the merits of any arguments.
Hinds County Circuit Judge Winston Kidd handed down a ruling this past Friday that blocked the gun law from taking effect on July 1.
Attorney General Jim Hood filed papers with the Supreme Court on Monday, asking justices to undo Kidd's order.
Hinds County District Attorney Robert Shuler Smith was among those who asked Kidd to block the law.
A panel of three Supreme Court justices on Tuesday denied Hood's request. That means Kidd can hold a July 8 hearing to decide whether to extend his order.

The silent icon disappearing is due to libstatusbar, either being incompatible with BOTH open notifier, even ringer/silent sbsettings' Status bar icon and the mute icon option or just plain having bugs, even though it was just updated for ios6 just this morning (0.9.6.1). I've already emailed the dev (Phoenix) about this issue and a possible fix/workaround.
Libstatusbar author here.
I'm not sure how the statusbar broke, but I am working hard on fixing it (and it's delaying the release of other apps of mine). It was supposed to create additional features, not mess up ones people just put out .
Hmmmm, i get a message stating 'NOTE: The requested modifications cannot be applied due to required dependencies or conflicts that cannot be automatically found or fixed"
have no idea why I get this message, im running iphone 5 with ios6.1 jailbroken.
Anyone have any ideas?

Lactose tolerance serum test
This is a test to see whether your body is able to break down lactose, a type of sugar found in milk, cheese, ice cream, and other dairy products. Lactase, an enzyme in your stomach, breaks down lactose into two simple sugars: glucose and galactose. Within two hours of eating, your blood glucose level should rise. This blood test measures the increase.
You may have this test if you have symptoms of lactose intolerance. Symptoms include:
Stomach cramps
Diarrhea, especially after you eat or drink milk and other dairy products such as ice cream and cheese
More than half of people of certain ethnic backgrounds have lactose intolerance.
You also might have this test if you have an intestinal problem like inflammatory bowel disease or a malabsorption syndrome like short gut syndrome. Infants who are not gaining enough weight may also have this test.
You may also have a lactose hydrogen breath test, another way to measure your body's ability to break down lactose. This test measures the amount of hydrogen in your breath. If you are unable to digest lactose, your breath will have a high amount of hydrogen.
You may also have a glucose tolerance test. Glucose tolerance is used to diagnose diabetes. When you have diabetes, either your pancreas does not make enough of the hormone insulin to break down sugar, or the cells in your body that use insulin become more resistant to it.
Many things may affect your lab test results. These include the method each lab uses to do the test. Even if your test results are different from the normal value, you may not have a problem. To learn what the results mean for you, talk with your health care provider.
If your glucose levels increase to greater than 20 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) after drinking the lactose, you likely don't have lactose intolerance or a problem with absorption.
If your glucose levels don't rise after drinking the lactose, you may be lactose intolerant or have a problem with absorption.
This test requires four blood samples, which are drawn through a needle from a vein in your arm. Your health care provider will take the first sample before you drink a dose of lactose, usually 100 grams of lactose diluted in 200 milliliters of water. The other blood samples are taken at three intervals after you drink the lactose – at 30 minutes, one hour, and two hours.
Taking a blood sample with a needle carries risks that include bleeding, infection, bruising, or feeling dizzy. When the needle pricks your arm, you may feel a slight stinging sensation or pain. Afterward, the site may be slightly sore.
Your results might be affected if you:
Exercise strenuously before testing
Eat or drink before testing
Have diabetes
Take antibiotics within one month of your test
Have a malabsorption syndrome
This test requires an eight-hour fast. Don't smoke or exercise for at least eight hours before you have this test. Don't take antibiotics for one month before this test. Be sure your doctor knows about all medicines, herbs, vitamins, and supplements you are taking. This includes medicines that don't need a prescription and any illicit drugs you may use.

Debenedetti inducted into National Academy of Engineering
Posted November 6, 2000; 06:32 p.m.
Pablo Debenedetti, the Class of 1950 Professor in Engineering and Applied Science and chair of the Department of Chemical Engineering, was inducted last month into the National Academy of Engineering, a private institution whose mission is to provide independent advice to the federal government on questions of engineering and technology.
Election to the academy is among the highest professional distinctions accorded to an engineer. Membership honors those who have made "important contributions to engineering theory and practice, including significant contributions to the literature of engineering theory and practice," and those who have demonstrated "unusual accomplishment in the pioneering of new and developing fields of technology," according to the academy.
Debenedetti was recognized for his contributions to microscopic theory, insight embodied in a scholarly monograph and application of supercritical and metastable fluids.

Solar Panels, New Bookstore Mark Campus Improvements
From adding solar panels to a new bookstore to enhanced technology, the Law School is wrapping up a series of campus improvement projects. The changes, most of which occurred over the summer, affect areas of the Fritz B. Burns Academic Center, the Casassa Building, Founders Hall, the Girardi Advocacy Center and the William M. Rains Library. Many of these were designed to provide more convenient access to critical services and to enhance instructional-technology systems. These modifications were the culmination of a years' long assessment of ways to best utilize the existing space on campus and meet the evolving needs of students, faculty and and staff.
Important highlights:
- Solar panels were installed on the roofs of Burns, Founders Hall (pictured above) and the library. The panels on the roof of Burns were a gift from the Class of 2010. The panels will soon be connected to the power grid and result in energy savings for the Law School.
- The bookstore (pictured, right) moved from the Casassa basement to the first floor of Burns with a grand opening on Monday, Sept. 16. The larger store offers more LLS merchandise and an improved layout. During this academic year, planning will be done with input from students to convert the basement level of Casassa into a student union space.
- Interactive digital signage was added at strategic locations around campus.
- The Information Center is now on the first floor of Burns near Sonia's. This area also includes Information & Support Services.
- Campus Planning, which handles parking passes and photo IDs, moved to Founders Hall 203.
- A new office in the Office of Career Services in Founders Hall 118 houses an additional career counselor.
- A new mail center opened in the basement of Founders Hall. Mailboxes were relocated to the first floor of Burns between the main lobby and the Burns Lounge.
- A Graphics satellite office opened within the Information Center in Burns, providing quick-turnaround printing and copy services.
Summer renovations included adding classroom space in the library and updating instructional technology hardware and software in existing classrooms. Highlights include:
- Room 205 in the library, formerly a training room, is now outfitted as a classroom.
- Room 204 in Casassa, formerly a group study room, is now outfitted as a seminar-style classroom.
Girardi Advocacy Center
- Robinson Courtroom: New widescreen projector screens with high-definition capabilities; upgraded cameras to allow better capture of trial teams
