Welcome to Nazareth School
NAZARETH NURSERY AND PRIMARY SCHOOL FESTAC TOWN, LAGOS, opened its doors to admit its first pupils. Since the first application forms been distributed on October 1982, the demand for places had been beyond all expectations and unfortunately but inheritable ,many were disappointed even before the construction of the school, his grace, Most Re. Anthony Ololiunmi Okogie, Archbishop of Lagos, had asked the congregation of Sister Maria Coate, and her assistant Sister Winifred Nacken had resided in Pacelli school for the build up to Christians Eve 1982, when they "moved house: to Festac Town accompanied by Sister Mary Noel Meehan, Regional superior of the Sisters of Charity. Sister Maria had considerable experience of teaching in school in England, and has spent over a year as vice-principal of St. Catherine Model School Surulere, in preparation for the opening of Nazareth School Festac. Very early on that opening day in January 10th 1983 Rev. Fr. Anolegbe blessed every classroom in the school and prayed for God loving care and protection over all pupils, teachers etc.
541 children were admitted and arranged in classes as follows.(Note names of the first staff of Nazareth School) -Mrs. Ubaka Class- NIA Pupils-25 , Mrs. Okonkwo Class- NIB Pupils-43,Mrs. Ogodi Class- NIC Pupils-32, Mrs. Aledoghu Class- N2A Pupils-41,Mrs. Eke Pupils-43 Class- N2B, Mrs. Okoro Pupils-30 Class- Pres.

Hi everyone,
Just purchased a 2010 WRX limited 5 door Obsidian Black with SPT exhaust and Dimming rear view mirror with compass and Homelink.(Got a great deal)
Will be picking it up tomorrow. I traded in a 2008 Mustang GT (which I will miss) and a 2008 Suzuki SX4 AWD (cool little car) on the WRX . I wanted to go down to driving just one car that I can use in winter and summer.
The test ride was Awesome. It pulls harder that the stang but not buy a whole lot. I was wondering if any of you experts out there can give me some tips/info. on my new Rex. Like , what can I expect for gas mileage , all season tire options, radio upgrades.(I did get the media hub option and would just like to add a sub to enhance the bass.), and overall reliabilty.
Thanks Everyone

(102.35 kB) A. Master electrician Rex Cauldwell responds: Some equipment, including some spas, are pure 240-volt, with no neutral. Most everything else is both 120- and 240-volt. It doesn't make any difference if the load is pure 240-volt (with two hots and no neutral) or 120/240-volt (with two hots and a neutral) — you use the same double-pole GFCI breaker. You even install it the same. Wire both hot conductors to the breaker and the breaker pigtail to the neutral bus. There will be no connection to the breaker neutral, so just ignore it.The way the breaker works is via "vector addition." It sums the current of the load and uses that as a reference as the current leaves one leg of the breaker. In theory, the current coming back should be the same. If it is not, the breaker opens. The vector addition will not work if the pigtail is not connected. Login or Register to continue reading

The cost of acquiring the American dream is turning into a nightmare for the middle class. Due to a variety of economic reasons, becoming a homeowner can be nearly impossible in some areas of the country. However, there are still housing markets where the majority of homes for sale are within reach of the middle class.
In 20 of the 100 largest U.S. metros, most of the homes on the market are out of reach for the middle class, according to a new report from Trulia. Seven of the 10 least affordable areas are located in California. For example, the median household in San Francisco earns $84,129, but only 14 percent of homes are affordable. Other metros such as New York City, Fairfield County, and Honolulu round out the list.
Affordability is based on whether the total monthly payment — which includes mortgage, insurance, and property taxes — was less than 31 percent of the metro area's median household income. Since the definition of middle class can change according to location, this method accounts for differences in income levels.
Let's take a look at the top 10 most affordable housing markets for the middle class.

Concrete basement floor paint
Can I paint a concrete basement floor with interior paint? I'll most likely be putting a subfloor over the concrete anyway, but I figured I should cover it up.
Why would you paint it knowing it's the wrong paint and it going to be just a peeling mess.
What do you mean there's going to be a subfloor?
Whats the finished flooring going to be?
I'll be laying hardwood.
Primary reason is to save money ish
Yes, with the proper preparation most interior paints are spec'd for masonry. Now, as to what is the best wearing finish for a floor that's another question. Interior wall/trim finishes are not formulated to be walked on, so they won't wear well. If you're considering putting hardwood down, and if it's currently unfinished, you might consider a moisture blocking finish, like Drylock.
Dri Lok is not made to walk on.
Real hardwood should never be layed over a slab.
You need to be looking into engineered flooring instead.
Correct on the Drylok-
NOT made for horizontal uses.
I believe there are breathable flooring membranes for some types of Woods. Ask/research some flooring dealers/sites.
I'll take your word on engineered flooring over slabs, makes sense. However, I was suggesting Drylock as a barrier under the new floor, not as a surface finish to be walked on. From Drylock, "Not recommended for use on horizontal surfaces subject to foot traffic." It's not flagged for horizontal uses, only walking on it.
Sorry, I should have clarified: I have a concrete basement floor. I'd like to paint/seal it up. Then I'll be laying a Delta FL subfloor, and then engineered hardwood.
I'm still not sure if I could use regular acrylic latex paint or should I spend the extra and get the 1 part epoxy concrete paint for garage floors? Like this: http://www.homedepot.com/p/BEHR-Prem...0201/100113293
There's "Engineered" flooring -
It's put down with mastic - directly on the (clean)concrete.
Not cheap!
A lot of fun to install! :(
No "hardwood" directly on concrete!
You glue a pad down first!
I don't see what you gain but added expense putting a sealer on it if your plan is to float a floor over it.
If you are painting because you are not going to get to the finish floor for awhile? Here is a novel idea. Use a floor paint. I like Ben Moore's reinforced products. They are self-priming (not paint and primer in one though) over nicely prepped concrete. Both oil and waterbased products come in lots of factory colors. Oil-based is urethane reinforced and the waterbased is epoxy reinforced.
With a little creativity you can do nice things with a painted floor and some painters tape. Concrete stains can be beautiful too.
I will chime in and ask this
WHY paint the concrete if it is going to have a sub floor and another floor out over it.
Would not the person installing the sub floor put down the proper coating(if needed) or whatever?
I don't have any popcorn...just had some vanilla-custard w/ strawberries @ Culvers though...:wheelchair::tt2:...!
Drylok does have a nice floor-paint though. If you can't get the Eng.-Hdwd/membrane(s) down right away, your floor will look real nice untill then!

`How Can We Be Laid Off If We Own The Company?'Maria Mallory
The day was dreary, the rain cold, as steelworkers picketed company headquarters last March, protesting the use of outside employees while union members were losing their jobs. It was a common scene, with one twist: The company was Weirton Steel Corp., which was bought by its workers in 1984 through an employee stock-ownership plan (ESOP). Those were the owners on the picket line. One marcher, Mark G. Glyptis, unseated the union's president in June on a platform of putting workers ahead of public shareholders, who recently bought 30% of Weirton. "I don't believe in maximizing profits at the expense of losing jobs," Glyptis says.
This clash reveals a pitfall of worker ownership: "It doesn't rewrite the laws of capitalism," says J. Michael Keeling, president of the ESOP Assn., a Washington trade group. "The bottom line is the bottom line--not guaranteed jobs."
The lesson is being driven home this year. Weirton Steel, the mainstay of Weirton, W. Va., has eliminated 1,000 of its 8,200 jobs, furloughed 200 other workers, and says 700 more jobs will be cut. McLouth Steel Products Corp. in Trenton, Mich., has laid off about 600 of its 2,200 workers, who own 87% of the place. At Bliss-Salem Inc., a maker of heavy machinery in Salem, Ohio, that is 100% owned by employees, 22 of 340 workers are gone because of slumping orders. And Pittsburgh Forgings Co. in Coraopolis, Pa., a maker of transportation and defense components that is 80% owned by employees, has cut its work force by 27%. The fired owners are angry but face Hobson's choice: "You just don't keep them on because they own the company," says Harry E. Lester, the United Steelworkers official with jurisdiction over McLouth, "or there's not going to be any company to own."
SACRIFICES. Weirton's workers sensed that right away. Upon taking over, they accepted a 20% pay cut and a six-year wage freeze. Weirton soon showed better margins than its Big Six rivals. So in 1989, it embarked on an overdue renovation of its continuous caster, which forms molten steel into slabs, and of its hot strip mill, which processes slabs to customer specifications. To help raise the needed $740 million, the Independent Steelworkers Union agreed to more sacrifices. Profit-sharing payments were slashed from 50% of annual earnings to 33%. And the employees agreed to sell 4.5 million shares to the public, sparing management the estimated $40 million cost of buying back the shares as the ESOP agreement had required.
But the honeymoon ended last fall. Demand sank for sheet steel used in appliances and construction, a product that generates half of Weirton's $1.2 billion in annual revenues. Competition cut Weirton's sheet steel market share to 3.2%, from 4.4% in 1988. Then, its modernization program hit snags. A new rolling machine went haywire and cost $18 million to fix. A fire in a computer room cost $10 million more. Unable to meet delivery on 300,000 tons of steel, Weirton paid competitors $10.8 million to roll slabs that it then finished on its own equipment. These setbacks led to the company's first losses as an ESOP, including $48 million in this year's first half. After going public at 14 1/2, Weirton's stock hovers around 4. President Herbert Elish has eliminated the 16~ dividend, docking employees about $280 a quarter. ESOP or not, says Elish, "management has to do what the management has to do at any company."
Including run the place efficiently. As modernization raises productivity, Weirton will need fewer workers. So far, Elish has used attrition and an early-retirement program to make permanent cuts. But employees are still unhappy, and they elected Glyptis to make that clear. "One of the questions from workers was: `How can we be laid off if we own the company?' " says Virgil G. Thompson, Glyptis' predecessor.
NEW FACES. One especially sore point, more symbolic than not, is the handful of employees who work for the contractors that are updating Weirton's mill. Elish says that Weirton's in-house construction crew didn't have the time or staff to help install the equipment. But that doesn't satisfy Glyptis, who vows to avoid such situations in the future. He also warns against any method but attrition for making permanent job reductions. "You can't throw someone out like an old shoe," he argues. "If you sacrifice, you're part of the team."
It's unclear how prickly Glyptis can be, since after all, it's his company, too. Elish says the employees "will do whatever it takes" to make Weirton prosper. He had better be right. "This company is run strictly for the employees," gripes Greg Melvin, portfolio manager at Federated Growth Trust in Pittsburgh, which holds 260,000 Weirton shares. That's the last thing the steelmaker needs now: a battle between its public shareholders and those inside the plant.

Dr. Kimberly Sena Moore, assistant professor-in-practice and clinical training director of the Music Therapy program at University of Miami Frost School…
More Spotlight Stories »
The students and faculty of the Department of Music Education and Music Therapy at the Frost School of Music have been providing instrumental music instruction for brass and winds for 40 years at the Henry S. West Laboratory Elementary School, adjacent to the University of Miami's Coral Gables campus. The music program was the result of an energetic educational experiment and collaboration between William F. Lee when he was dean of the UM School of Music (1964-1982) and Patricia L. Frost when she served as principal of 'West Lab.' Unique to the program was a groundbreaking idea: Patricia Frost insisted that every student in the school—plus their parents—and every teacher in the school—learn a musical instrument. As a result, music was incorporated into the entire curriculum, students excelled in all subjects, and West Lab became a model school with a very long waiting list.
The late faculty-composer John Kinyon was highly involved in the implementation of the music program, as was a teaching assistant named Vernon Burnsed (now professor of music education at Virginia Tech). Their collaboration with William Lee and Patricia Frost was so successful—and positively impacted the lives of thousands of elementary school children and their families—that, even 30 years later, it inspired Phillip and Patricia Frost to become the School's naming benefactors—one of the many reasons we proudly call ourselves the Frost School of Music.
Today, the program is still administered by the Frost School of Music and is called The Music Education (MED) Program. The Frost School sponsors both wind band and string instruction for beginning and advancing instrumental music classes for children in grades 4 and 5. (String instruction was added in 1987 by professor of music education and associate dean, Nicholas DeCarbo, who remains the program supervisor.) Teaching assistants from the MED Program coordinate the program, and undergraduate students enrolled in Music Education teach the classes and earn essential field experience. The elementary students perform in two concerts each year, in December and May.
Henry S. West Laboratory School was established in 1954 as the result of a legal agreement entered into by the Miami Dade County Public Schools and the University of Miami, defining the school as a laboratory research facility.
It has, for the past 56 years, been able to offer an outstanding learning program to approximately 300 elementary students (K - 6) and over 200 university students yearly in its campus style setting.
Student enrollment at West Lab is voluntary, open to all students in the county, and controlled by a Board approved admissions policy.
The school provides the clinical environment for psychological and educational research and development which is of great value to the Dade County Public Schools and the University of Miami staff.
One hundred percent of the parents grant the University of Miami and MDCPS staff permission for their children to be actively involved in educational research, thus providing an unbiased sample population for investigation.
Students involved in the latest experimental educational programs appreciate the value of critical thinking and evaluation. They also develop a positive self-image due to the frequent interaction with goal oriented adults who rely on them to accomplish their objectives.
Each student at West Lab is a learner and a teacher.

i have to write an essay on personal perspectives on the healthcare system i don't know how to start please help
For this type of assignment, one thing you can do is think of your own experiences at a doctor's office, an emergency room, or in a hospital itself.
Why did you have to go there?
What happened?
Did people explain to you what was going on so that you understood it?
If you asked questions, were they answered well enough ... or more than once until you understood?
And so forth ...
You could also write about someone else's experience, I suppose, if you accompanied him/her to a health care facility. Same questions as above.
And there are other scenarios.
You'd be writing a combination of narrative/descriptive and explanatory or evaluative types of writing.

"Acronym Free Zone"
Getting overloaded with text messages and IMs full of incomprehensible acronyms? No problem, just declare your phone or chat window an "AFZ" and get on with your day. Don't worry about the inherent hypocrisy, sometimes you need to come down to their level to get them to understand you.
"Avoiding Work Like The Plague"
If a buddy sends you a text anytime from nine to five asking what you're up to, why not be honest with him?
"Real Manly Hug"
This is not the sports guy chest bump or the grapple hug with your hands guarding your chest. Only use this abbreviation if you are a real guy who appreciates real hugs.
"Bloody Hell, I Must Be Getting Old"
Don't worry, we all feel this way sometimes, especially when we're trying to keep up in this fast-paced world of text messages on Internet abbreviations. Sometimes it's okay to take a step back and make it known that you're getting too old for this stuff.
"Cool Story Bro"
The ultimate biting response to a story that goes on a little too long. If you ever find yourself sitting through a tale that takes more than one text, replying with "CSB" should make it clear that your friends need to work on making things a little more pithy.
"Right Thing To Say, Dude"
Whether you're agreeing with the last thing he said to you, or you're backing him up in an argument, "RTTSD" is a great way to support your buddy using as few letters as possible.
"Love You Like A Bro"
Acronyms are the prefect way to express your love and respect without things getting too weird among bros. Telling a really good friend that they're like family doesn't have to be awkward.
"Big Man On Campus"
At some point, "BMOC" may have been used with sincere intents, but these days it's mostly used in a sarcastic sense. If a buddy is ever getting a little too full of himself, and is a little too proud of recent accomplishments, it's always a good idea to put him in his place by firing off a quick "BMOC."
"Slap Head In Disgust"
Otherwise known as the "face palm," this is a good alternative to the popular "smh" (shaking my head), but with a little added emphasis.
"You're The Man"
A little affirmation from our friends is always nice, so show that you're proud of your pal by throwing him a "UDM" after he's done something awesome.

A Fine Representation in China
We first heard of the massive earthquake in China on the noon news of May 12. One word came to my mind -- Cathryn. Where were Cathryn Fine Yang and her husband Nicholas? Somewhere in China I was pretty sure; but until that moment hadn't paused one moment to think about where they'd be in that vast land.
I was relieved when I saw her father, Jerry Fine, later that day. He assured us they had heard from Cathryn and she was no more affected by the earthquake than were we here in Brazil when startled awake on April 18. Apparently, like us, they were asleep when it struck.
Cathryn is married to Nicholas Yang, born in Yunnan, China, who also pursuing a PhD at La Trobe, in education. She comes from one of the finest Christian families you will meet (no pun intended). In this area people might remember Robin Fine Bradley, the youngest of the family. Robin was a 2000 graduate of Northview High School and is now a Captain in the U.S. Army. [She is also one of my "adopted children" I sometimes worry about].
You may not know them, but Cathryn and Nicholas Yang represent Brazil Indiana in way that brings honor to our city. Their work in reaching and helping involves going to people in places and circumstances which we in America can never fully appreciate. Her most recent e-mail says,
"I've now traveled to twelve villages this year. Although every village is a new experience, the hospitality and warmth I have met are constants. In [one] village, the people were so happy to host us that they danced for us for several hours. When I joined their dance circle, intense amusement erupted from the watching crowd. The lady beside me patiently taught me the steps, but I never really got it (hence the laughter)."
We might surmise that many of the things which happen in China must remain in China -- unspoken and unwritten. The following information about her work was given me "for publication":
"Cathryn Yang (née Fine) has lived in China for over five years now. She first became interested in China during the summer of her freshman year in college, when she spent six weeks in Hangzhou learning Chinese and meeting Chinese students. Since then, she spent three years in China studying Chinese, and two and a half years working in China with the Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL), a non-profit organization focused on serving minority people groups through linguistic research, community development, and education (www.sil.org). There are many different ethnic minority groups in China, most of whom speak languages that are slowly being squeezed out by Chinese. Cathryn is currently in a PhD program in linguistics at La Trobe University in Australia. The focus of her research are the various dialects of Lalo, a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in Yunnan, China. Since no one has yet fully documented this endangered language, Cathryn is spending this year in Yunnan, visiting thirty different villages to collect linguistic data and conduct intelligibility tests.."
It's a good guess that there is more to the story. Cathryn and Nicholas will come "home" to Brazil in July. Hopefully then we'll get more of "the rest of the story."

After signaling its intentions to create a vast ecosystem around VMware virtual machines for over a year now, VMware used its VMworld 2013 conference to describe how virtual data centers based on VMware should be deployed and managed.
Speaking at the event, VMware CEO Pat Gelsinger described how VMware intends to help IT organizations set up hybrid cloud environments that span multiple instances of VMware while deploying network virtualization software that will simplify management of virtual data centers. With the forthcoming delivery of a VMware NSX Network Virtualization Platform, VMware expects to abstract the management of networks in pretty much the same way it abstracted the management of physical servers.
In addition to a new platform for building virtual networks that VMware will wrap its software-defined networking (SDN) technology around, VMware also announced a vCloud Hybrid Service that provides a cloud service that VMware customers can treat as an extension of their own data centers. Hosted in data centers run by VMware and Savvis, the cloud service will also be used to deliver a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offering based on Cloud Foundry, disaster recovery services and desktop-as-a-service all based on VMware technology.
Central to that effort are versions 5.5 of VMware vCloud Suite and VMware vSphere Operations Management, which have been enhanced to provide a control plane through which IT organizations can automate the management of a broad range of IT management functions.
The company also announced VMware Virtual SAN, which provides a data plane through which virtual storage systems can be more easily shared across multiple instances of VMware.
Given the fact that VMware is now aggressively pushing to manage the entire data center, IT organizations are faced with a complicated choice. They can either standardize on VMware technologies across the board, or look for other approaches to virtual data center technologies that would make it easier for them to manage truly hybrid cloud environments that span everything from Microsoft Hyper-V to Amazon Web Services.
While accomplishing the latter promises to be more difficult to actually achieve, it would preserve a greater measure of IT independence in contrast to a more totalitarian vision of the future of the data center being dictated by VMware.

Freshman LHP Haylie Wagner (Orange, Calif./El Modena) collected her first save of the season, throwing 2.0 scoreless innings and giving up just one hit. Senior first baseman Amanda Chidester (Allen Park, Mich./Cabrini) went 4-for-4 with two runs batted in and two runs scored to anchor the offense against the Billikens.
Michigan struck first against Saint Louis with a run in the first inning. Senior centerfielder Bree Evans (Bloomington, Calif./Rialto) led off with a walk, advancing to second on a successful sacrifice. Chidester doubled all the way to the wall in right-center, sending Evans home for a 1-0 lead.
The Wolverines scored another two runs in the third, both on illegal pitches by the Saint Louis pitcher. After the Billikens pulled within a run with two in the fifth, a Chidester triple followed by a blooper over the shortstop's head from junior second baseman Ashley Lane (Escondido, Calif./Escondido) put Michigan back on top, 4-2, after five.
Saint Louis plated another run in the sixth, but Michigan answered with two runs in the bottom half of the inning to seal a 6-3 win.
Michigan tallied just four hits and stranded seven runners against Louisville, as Wagner was charged the loss in the circle, giving up two runs on five hits in 6.0 innings. Evans paced the U-M offense with two hits.
The Cardinals got on the board first with a run in the second, but Michigan looked poised to score in the top of the third. The Maize and Blue loaded the bases with one out on a single up the middle from junior shortstop Amy Knapp (St. Joseph, Mich./Lakeshore), a walk by sophomore outfielder Lyndsay Doyle (Channahon, Ill./Minooka Community) and single by Evans up the middle. However, sophomore outfielder Nicole Sappingfield (Norco, Calif./Norco) struck out looking and Chidester popped up to the second baseman to end Michigan's theat.
Senior third baseman Stephanie Kirkpatrick (Plainfield, Ill./Central) led off the fifth inning with a double down the rightfield line, advancing to third on a flyout by Knapp. With two out, Evans chopped one up the middle to score U-M's first run of the game, cutting the Louisville lead to 2-1. Sappingfield reached on a throwing error by the third baseman, which advanced Evans to third. Chidester hit one towards the wall in right, but the Cardinal outfielder made an over the shoulder grab to end the inning.
In the seventh, Knapp walked and advanced to second on interference by the second baseman when Doyle attempted the sacrifice. With runners at first and second and one out, Evans struck out swinging for the second out and Sappingfield grounded out to the second baseman.
Michigan is back in action tomorrow (Sunday, March 11), taking on Illinois State at 11 a.m.
Michigan is 15-2 all-time against Louisville and 5-0 against Saint Louis.
U-M is now 4-2 this year against ranked opponents after losing to No. 16 Louisville.
The contest against Louisville was just Michigan's fourth true road contest of the season as U-M moved to 2-2 in those games.
LHP Haylie Wagner suffered just her second loss of the season in her complete game against Louisville. Her first loss came at USF on Feb. 29.

These are intermediate CA certs. We don't usually put intermediate CA certs into the built-in token, IIRC. Unless we have some contractual obligation to ship these, I agree we can just remove them when they expire.

I don't know if this has been done or not, but if it hasn't this would be one way to reduce build size by a very small amount.

is this fix picked up in the move to the latest NSS release? I'll plus this if it is. is there a bug some one can refer me to on that work? I think we need to move forward on picking up the the latest NSS quickly.

I can't imagine why this should block anything. Chris?
Comment 5•
13 years ago
I see Chris isn't on the cc list, so ... I'm removing the blocking-aviary flag from this P3 bug,, since AFAIK the presence of these old certs causes NO problems for anyone. If these were root CA certs used to issue email certs, we'd want to leave them in so that email signatures can continue to be checked, retrospectively, even after their expirations. But since these certs are only used for OCSP, and OCSP signatures are not expected to be preserved and checked long after, it's no problem to remove them shortly after they expire. There are a number of new requests to add new root certs to NSS, and I will implement them for NSS 3.10. I will plan to work on this request (for cert removal) for NSS 3.10 also.

Yes, we did decide not to remove expired root CA certs. But the certs requested in this bug are intermediate CA certs. I believe Kai is now doing to root CA module work.

Comment 11•

I have no problem with the removal of any expired certs. If and when there is an external list of all the certs included (something like http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/certs/included/ ) then I would need to be notified so I could update that. But that's not true yet. (It seems from comment #9 that the NSS team has decided not to remove expired root certs; I'd be interested to know why that was.) Gerv

I propose we restrict this fix to the trunk of NSS, this seems to have a very low priority, but as it's absolutely trivial to fix, I'll attach a patch now.

Created attachment 271935 [details] [diff] [review] Patch v1 Obvious patch to remove the 4 certs. I'm only including the changes to certdata.txt, I'll of course run the script to produce the updated .c file at the time I check it in.
Comment 14•
10 years ago
The reasons not to remove expired certs are a) There is no benefit from removing them, and there is some potential harm. b) There is benefit to leaving them in place. Leaving them in place allows you to continue to verify signatures on old emails and old signed JAR files, and to continue to decrpyt email messages sent to you when your cert chained up to that old root, before it expired. This allows you to continue to have access to documents that you know you have already verified the signatures on back when the certs were not yet expired. (One generally does not save emails or JAR files that have invalid signatures at the time they are received.) Removing the old certs makes it impossible to verify subordinate certs thereafter, which makes signature reverification and other re-uses of certificates impossible thereafter. I have emails that were signed with certs issued subordinate to a now- expired GTE root. Today, I can still read them and verify the signatures on them. If that cert is removed, I will no longer be able to do that. How, then, does removal of that cert benefit me?

Comment on attachment 271935 [details] [diff] [review] Patch v1 This patch is good, as far as it goes, but MAY be incomplete. Depending on what release of NSS will include this patch, it may also be necessary to change the nssckbi version number, if it hasn't already been changed by a previous patch in this same release. Please indicate the target NSS release for this patch, so we can determine if additional nssckbi version number changes are needed.

No Access to Internal Network
I have a 2951 router with switch and sec pac. I have multiple servers connected to the router. To access the servers via ssh and sftp I VPN into the router and then I can shell in using private ip's. Up until a couple of days ago this has worked. I am not clear on how but a possible cause... I have been in the process of moving our DNS name servers from our local network to a distributed external network. After verifying a successful transition I came to one of the final stages = shutting down the named service on our local servers. It was a day after this action that I couldn't gain ssh or sftp access to my servers via the VPN connection. I have VPN access. I am able to access web services on the servers but no ssh access when connected to router.
I did some exploring on possible issues/solutions and noticed that a router global config had old ip name-server data. So I added the IP address of our new name server and added the use of tcp and udp eq domain to our access list. This did not fix the problem. This is a bit confusing on why this change would cause this type of issue since I use private IP's (not domains) when accessing the servers but this is the only change I can think of that was made and coinsides with this issue.
here is my config... (i marked with bold text the additions I made to access list and ip name-server)
IP ending in .226 is router IP. Old named servers IP ending in .227 + .228
thanks for any assistance / knowledge
I am removing configuration due to it not being needed to resolve this issue.
Interesting problem.
One possible relation to the dns change is that it is not possible for the external dns to (correctly) resolve the pool addresses. If your ssh requires reverse dns resolution as a security measure, connections will be refused.
A static entry in the hosts file may do the trick already.
You can also check the event log on the server(s) to see if there are messages related to the failing sessions.
These may point you to a possible cause and from there to a solution.

Sino Biological LDLR Recombinant Human Protein, His Tag
This recombinant human protein is expressed from a DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain of human LDLR precursor (NP_000518.1), residues 1 to 788, fused to a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus
Manufacturer: Invitrogen 10231H08H250
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
DescriptionLow density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) recombinant human protein is supplied as a lyophilized powder. This protein is suitable for use in protein studies such as protein structure analysis and protein-protein interactions. In general, recombinant proteins can also be used as an immunogen, as a protein standard, or in cell biology research applications.Background: Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is one of the five major groups of lipoprotein that transports cholesterol and triglycerides from the liver to peripheral tissues, and enables fats and cholesterol to move within the water-based solution of the blood stream. The Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor (LDLR) is the prototype member of the LDLR family of scavenger receptors which is involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis of specific ligands. In order to be internalized, the receptor-ligand complexes must first cluster into clathrin-coated pits. LDLR recognizes the apoprotein B100 which is embedded in the phospholipid outer layer of LDL particles, as well as the apoE protein found in chylomicron remnants and VLDL remnants (IDL). After taken into the cell ending up in lysosomes, LDL is degraded and the cholesterol is made available for repression of microsomal enzyme HMG CoA reductase, the rate-limiting step in cholesterol synthesis. As a mosaic protein, the extracellular region of LDLR consists of seven N-terminal complement-like cysteinerich repeats followed by three EGF like repeats with a β-propeller YWTD containing motif, and a membrane proximal Ser/Thr rich region. Furthermore, it is reported that in case of HIV-1 infection, LDLR functions as a receptor for extracellular Tat (HIV-1 transactivator) into neurons, mediating its internalization in uninfected cells. Mutations in LDLR gene cause the autosomal dominant disorder, familial hypercholesterolemia.
- N-terminal Sequence Analysis: Ala 22
- Activity: Measure by its ability to bind to human PCSK9 in a functional ELISA: 1. Immobilized human PCSK9 at 10µg/mL (100µL/well) has been shown to bind biotinylated recombinant human LDLR, the ED50 of biotinylated human LDLR is 0.61µg/mL; 2. Immobilized mouse PCSK9 at 10µg/mL (100µL/well) has been shown to bind biotinylated recombinant human LDLR, the ED50 of biotinylated human LDLR is 0.12µg/mL
- Formulation: Lyophilized in PBS, pH 7.4, 5% mannitol, 5% trehalose, and 0.02% Tween®-80
- Reconstitution: Dissolve the protein in sterile double-distilled water to a concentration of 0.2mg/mL or lower; aliquot and use as soon as possible

by ACC Media Relations
GREENSBORO, N.C. - North Carolina's P.J. Hairston and NC State's Scott Wood have been named co-ACC Players of the Week, and Maryland's Seth Allen has been selected the conference's Rookie of the Week.
Hairston set career scoring highs in consecutive games this past week, scoring 23 at Duke Wednesday and 29 in Saturday's win over Virginia. The Greensboro, N.C., sophomore also tied his career high with eight rebounds against the Blue Devils and added seven more rebounds against Virginia. Hairston was 16-of-32 from the floor, including 7-of-19 from 3-point range and 13-of-16 from the free throw line.
In Saturday's 90-86 win over Virginia Tech in overtime, Wood led the Wolfpack in scoring with 22 points, marking the first time this season that he has led the team in scoring. The Marion, Ind., senior knocked down a season-high six 3-pointers, while establishing a career mark for minutes played with 43 and tying his career-high with three blocked shots.
Allen provided the winning points in Saturday's 83-81 victory over No. 2 Duke when he broke a tie with a pair of free throws with 2.8 seconds remaining. The Woodbridge, Va., freshman scored all 16 of his points in the second half, and had five of Maryland's last six points down the stretch. Allen made 7-of-8 free throws in the game while adding two steals, a block and an assist.

Re-purpose leather
Does anyone have experience re-purposing leather from a couch to cover seats or interior panels in their car? Any concerns with such reuse? Does leather for auto interiors have to be new?
Someone in my area has a free leather loveseat on Craigslist. It has worn seat cushions and a rip from a dog. I am thinking about getting it and using the leather for my interior.
reuse leather
It depends on the condition, if it's stiff and not pliabble, probably not work. There has been some info posted a while back her on HR about the best method to clean and take care of leather . I don't know if you can bring back stiff leather, My wife and I haven't owned any horses for several years, but we still have our saddles, I try to use Neatsfoot oil every year, probably not the best for upholstery. My son picked up a couple free leather sofa's from CR to do the interior of his 22 dodge lakester, he wants the just out of the barn look.
good quality Furniture will have leather on the back, never sat on, and No vinyl used on sides or back.
Yes, you could use the leather from the sofa to upholster your car seats. No, it doesn't have to be new to use it in a car. Be aware that most "leather" furniture does not have real leather on the outside arms or the outside back, that is usually just matching vinyl. The leather is only on the seating areas and the arms. The same is true of most production line leather car seats.
To do a pair of bucket seats, or one bench seat, you would need the equivalent of about one full cow hide, which is about 45 to 55 square feet of leather. That would be the same as 2 1/2 to 3 yards of fabric. It's extremely doubtful you could salvage enough useable leather from the biggest totally leather sofa to do an entire car interior.
Neatsfoot oil is not for use on upholstery leather.
Thanks for the replies. I'll pick up the loveseat on my way home today.

Dan was right, as always. I wish Dan would publish his stock market picks!
The loveseat was half leather and half vinyl, maybe 25 square feet of each. Here are a couple of photos. The straight edge in the photos is 48 inches long. I'll keep watching for more freebies on Craigslist.
I'M lucky.
The 2 free ones we got are 100% leather.
Cigarette smoke
I picked up another sofa for $10. It had two small holes in one cushion. It did not have a noticeable odor when I picked it up, but I smelled cigarette smoke as I dismantled it. Now that I have removed all of the padding and have only the leather, I still smell smoke.
Can I get the smell out with cleaning, will it fade with time, or should I toss it into the trash?
ozone ?
After a house fire some of the restoration companies use an Ozone generator, but Ozone will speed up the deteriation of some materials. there might be some info in a house hold hints book , mabe on line ? I googled "how to remove smoke smell" and got several links, We do a lot of welding in the shop , I hope we don't stink up the sofa's ! try the gardenweb info.
I can't believe I used to smoke. Glad I gave it up. Damon and Grace - hypnotists. Best $100 I ever spent. My wife frequently asks me, "Why do you sigh all of the time". The post-hypnotic suggestion was "Whenever you want a cigarette, take two deep breaths". I guess now one deep breath will do.

Best Of :: Shopping & Services
Toward the end of each season, early in the morning, around 8, you'll see a line start to form outside a small boutique called LF (named after owner Laurie Furst) on Las Olas Boulevard. On end-of-season sale day, at about 9 a.m., the salespeople take a deep breath (betraying both dread and anticipation), brace themselves, and open the door for wolfish shoppers who will inevitably destroy the store in search of bargains on the usually very expensive (dare we say overpriced?) merchandise. The store carries young, fresh styles — all unique because the brands are exclusive to the store (plus a few fashion lines from London and Paris). The first weekend is by invitation-only to customers who have bought something before (afterward, anyone can get what's left); and while not officially recognized, the first day of the sale is an unequivocal holiday for the fashionably inclined youth around these parts. Girls skip school to spend the day rummaging with their moms. They trudge through the bodies, picking off shirts and pants and skirts, which, after an hour, hang limply on the disheveled shelves and racks. The scene takes on a macabre-party vibe, with shoppers resembling vultures as they pick at goods left after a fashion explosion. The little room's air conditioner can't handle the pressure, and sometimes the heat becomes unbearable. But brave girls and moms don't care. After all, beauty is pain, right?
Information regarding health and nutrition is more plentiful and easily available than ever before, yet somehow, many of us are not quite exemplars of well-being, especially amid the 9-to-5 grind. Fortunately, there are folks out there devoted to spreading the... health! Red Carrot Wellness provides health and nutritional coaching to individuals, groups, and corporations. These folks will help you shop for groceries, cook, and dine out more wisely. They'll come to your place of business to lead weekly yoga classes (just $175 for up to 40 people — tell the boss!), monthly nutrition workshops, detoxification cleanses, and more. Who among us could not benefit from tapping into the power of Pilates or learning more about the perils of sugar consumption?
Whether for a big wedding or a random Wednesday, the good people of Flowers and Found Objects will help you celebrate life with their brilliant vision and creations. Arrangements for all occasions can be found within the fragrant Las Olas boutique. Browse the portfolio and discover tasteful displays like the "Vanda Orchid Assortment" ($70 to $125), "Tropical Garden Centerpiece" ($125 to $150), and "Casablanca Lilies in Cylinder Vase" ($125 to $250) — all of which look as poetic as their titles. You can work with them to customize an order, or Flowers and Found Objects will take care of it completely. Or if you'd just like to pick out a single rose or sunflower, that's fine too. As if flowers weren't enough, the shop also offers lovely gourmet gift packages ($75 and up) and interesting decorative pieces — "found objects" such as clocks, vases, and statuettes that their stylish buyers have gathered from across the U.S.
Stores that hawk books are hard to find in South Florida, even if we count corporate Starbucks dispensaries tricked out with two stories of teen fiction, celebrity magazines, and more literary lions on the walls in pretentious murals than in the stockroom. Second Edition Book Shop is one of the few remaining members on the endangered-species list — and the best. Tucked into a shopping center off Stirling Road in Davie, Second Edition is tight and cozy on the inside. Stocked floor to ceiling, all the books choke the store with the sweet aroma of well-thumbed pages. Books cost half the sticker price or less. Up front, you'll find inviting leather chairs for test-driving the books. Although there's a literature section way in the far back, Second Edition's sweet spot is genre potboilers — mysteries and sci-fi adventures and sweaty romances, anything you might need to speed through a day at the beach.
Nothing tugs at the heartstrings like doe-eyed pups and fuzzy kittens — particularly those with no home to call their own. They gaze up at you with their innocent expressions, tilting their scruffy heads and raising one lone paw. All they want is love. But don't be fooled by Sarah McLachlan and her corporate shill. The folks at Warm Hearts Pet Rescue are doing the real work — pulling pets from the pound, enduring heartache and tough decisions, bathing, feeding, transporting — to save as many lives as possible. Warm Hearts is donation-based and volunteer-run, and its no-kill facility comes complete with two backyards for running, playpens for socializing, mega-sinks for washing, and all kinds of other pup perks to keep residents happy, entertained, and exercised until they find their forever homes. Need a new love in your life? If so, now you know where to go. And it ain't cheap to run a rescue this size, so maybe think of all those adorable animals next time you have some spare coin to contribute.
Counterintuitive or just plain amazing? These were our first thoughts upon encountering Happy Pappy's, a drive-through liquor store in Hollywood. Located on Griffin Road across the street from a pawn shop and next door to Happy Pappy's Sub Shop, this standalone mom-and-pop establishment looks like a little hut of joy, complete with a terra-cotta-colored awning and rainbow bubble letters spelling out the Happy Pappy's name. While the selection and prices are pretty middle-of-the-road, the mom-and-pop quality gives the establishment a dose of charm. As soulless, warehouse-sized Disney Worlds of liquor stores like Total Wine continue to dominate suburban markets, we're content with rolling up and getting serviced with our usual brown-bagged adult beverage of choice, especially since we don't even have to get out of the car. Happy Pappy's, which has been around since the '80s, is a clear favorite among locals, while its proximity to Fort Lauderdale airport makes it all too convenient for tourists looking to stock up on weekend supplies.

Palm in (the way your holster is) is standard. Many holster makers will not make a palm-out small of back holster, because you will sweep your torso with the muzzle while drawing.
You could try a left-handed, cross draw holster for right hand, palm out SOB carry, but I recommend not carrying that way at all.

Last week, a 7 day trip to Silicon Valley (bit.ly/TechInSV) was presented, targeted at Technology Entrepreneurs, Heads of Technology, Systems Architects and Developers, E-Banking Heads/Teams, Telecom Technical Teams and Technology media. (To find out more click here.)
The trip, holding from May 7th –May 15th, is organised by Pocket Presents, a Nigerian based platform focused on global knowledge transfer, in collaboration with The African Network (TAN) and the African Technology Foundation (ATF), two Silicon Valley based organizations. The trip will allow 20 participants visit Silicon Valley companies like Google, Facebook, Airbnb, 500 Startups, Uber, Twitter, 4info, Oracle, SAP, etc.
Ike Eze – a former Silicon Valley founder with 20 years' experience, 3 tech startups with 3 exits, and Executive Director of Strategy and Corporate Development at eTranzact, sits on the advisory board of The African Network and is a member of the Lagos Angel Network – spoke about the purpose of the trip during an informational event at Cre8/Café Neo in Victoria Island last week.
VIDEO LINK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hX296bwg5Iw
He said:
"In the few years since I returned, I have been advising and investing in smart entrepreneurs and met lots of amazing people building awesome platforms in industries ranging from telecommunication to payments, advertising, marketplaces, ecommerce, etc., but the question a lot of them have a difficult time answering is how they would scale.
I have witnessed banking platforms, government portals, large ecommerce websites and other businesses in Nigeria experience technology downtimes that could have easily been avoided if the issue of scalability and high availability were considered as demand grew.
This and more are the reasons why I, with the Pocket Presents team, TAN and ATF, reached out to top companies such as Google, Facebook, and other in Silicon Valley that have scaled from a few thousand to millions of users."
The trip will achieve the following things and more:
– Learn from top companies, sustaining a 2-way conversation with teams of leading technology companies in Silicon Valley
– Develop direct relationships with Silicon Valley practitioners
– Transfer tangible technology know-how to efficiently scale

General manager Jim Hendry had to get rid of Bradley, who was suspended for the final two weeks of the 2009 season because of conduct detrimental to the team. The problem for Hendry was finding a way to avoid eating all of the $21 million Bradley had left on the three-year, $30 million contract Hendry gave him last January.
After the Tampa Bay Rays looked to be the clear front-runner to land Bradley, Hendry finally found the match he wanted with the Seattle Mariners, as he obtained right-hander Carlos Silva, another bad contract.
The bottom line is that the Cubs got $9 million from the Mariners: $3 million to cover the difference in the two salaries with the remaining $6 million going for "salary relief" for Chicago in 2010 and 2011.
Now the Cubs have to find a bat to replace Bradley's in the middle of the lineup, his sub-par 2009 notwithstanding. Bradley hit only 12 homers and drove in 40 runs, but he got on base at a rate of .378.
Hendry has been talking with new Cubs hitting coach Rudy Jaramillo, who worked with center fielder Marlon Byrd in Texas. The right-handed-hitting Byrd seemed to be the top option for Hendry heading into Christmas.
Rick Ankiel, late of St. Louis, is a little farther down the list, but he hits left-handed, which could help the right-handed-heavy Cubs.
The Cubs say the money they received from Seattle will help them acquire players, but that they did not have to move Bradley first.
"The biggest perception that was probably inaccurate was that we couldn't do anything until Milton was gone," Hendry said. "So we have to do a good job of filling those two or three holes that we still have with solid decisions. The cash that we're receiving obviously helps that."
Other outfield options include re-signing free agent Reed Johnson -- a right-handed batter -- and Sam Fuld, who bats left-handed. In a perfect world, however, each of these two players would come off the bench and see limited starting action.
--Silva will compete for the fifth spot in the Cubs rotation. Failing that, he can be used in long relief. The Cubs say they have been encouraged by his work in Venezuela. Hendry said Silva had been clocked at 89-92 mph on his fastball. He was 1-3 with an 8.60 ERA this year with the Mariners after going 4-15 with a 6.46 ERA in 2008. Shoulder problems hampered Silva this year, but the Cubs say the 30-year-old veteran is healthy. He has two years left on a four-year, $48 million deal he signed with the Mariners after the 2007 season.
"We'll have our pitching people visit him in Venezuela," Hendry said. "Our strength and conditioning people will be down there. We'll do whatever we can to get him as close to back as to where he hopefully was a couple of years ago before we get to camp."
--LHP John Grabow reportedly tried to recruit RHP Matt Capps to Chicago, but Capps agreed to a deal with Washington. Grabow and Capps were teammates in Pittsburgh. The Cubs have been looking for a veteran right-handed reliever in addition to a center fielder. Grabow will be the Cubs' primary left-handed setup man to RHP Carlos Marmol. In 30 games with the Cubs after his July 30 trade from the Pirates, Grabow was 0-0 with a 3.24 ERA. He recently signed a two-year extension to stay with the Cubs.
--OF Jim Adduci will be an interesting player to watch in spring training. The Cubs liked him enough to put him on the 40-man roster, fearing he'd be taken quickly in the Rule 5 draft. Adduci, 24, is the son of onetime big-leaguer Jim Adduci, Sr. At Class AA Tennessee this year, Adduci batted .300 in 131 games with four homers, 51 RBIs and a .377 on-base percentage. The Cubs toyed with bringing him up in September when they opted instead for Tyler Colvin. Adduci, who bats and throws left-handed, has a strong throwing arm. He'll likely open the season at Class AAA Iowa.
--Fuld batted .241 with two doubles, three triples and five RBIs over six games in Venezuela. Fuld's name has been talked about for some sort of role in the Cubs' outfield in 2010. A speedy outfielder and a good defender, he can play all three spots. He played in 65 games for the Cubs this year after opening at Class AAA Iowa. Fuld had a cup of coffee in 2007, but a rough spring in '08 put him in the minor leagues all of that year. He bats left-handed, and although he doesn't possess much power, he got on at a .358 clip at Iowa this year and stole 23 bases.
--For the first time in several springs, the Cubs will be set at catcher with Geovany Soto and Koyie Hill. One player to watch is Robinson Chirinos, who had tore it up in Venezuela. Chirinos is not on the 40-man roster, but he may get a spring invite and push top catching prospect Welington Castillo, who is on the 40-man roster. Chirinos, 25, was converted from infielder to catcher before last season. At Class (High) A Daytona, he batted .300 with 11 homers and 47 RBIs before getting promoted to Class AA. In his first 47 games of winter ball in Venezuela, Chirinos was batting .369 with 10 homers, 34 RBIs and a 1.075 on-base-plus-slugging percentage. If the Cubs need a catcher from the minors in 2010, it's not out of the question that Chirinos could be their man.
BY THE NUMBERS: .336 -- 1B Derrek Lee's average after the All-Star break, when he hit 18 of his 35 homers. Lee batted .280 in the first half.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "Obviously, when expectations weren't met, and the criticism started in his direction, I certainly don't think he handled it well. Once you go down that path, as you know, we're playing on the big stage. If you want the big stage, you've got to be able to perform on the big stage." -- Hendry, on why the Bradley experiment didn't work in Chicago.
