Ouch, can we stick to keeping either only metric or only imperial in a given sentence? Reply

Ronakbhai - Wednesday, March 07, 2012 - linkPlease do forgive Mr. Anand. His childhood spent memorizing massive multiplication tables has made him forget that many of us do not naturally do metric <-> imperial conversions. :) Reply
mutil0r - Wednesday, March 07, 2012 - link"Battery life remains unchanged at 10 hours and Apple is claiming 9 hours of battery life on LTE. I suspect Qualcomm's 28nm LTE baseband is to thank for that."
Or the fact that this version of the iPad has a much larger battery at about 42 Whr compared to the 25 Whr in the previous model? Reply
solipsism - Wednesday, March 07, 2012 - linkBut it's 10 hours with just the WiFi model. So being that close to the non-cellular model and being the same between WiFi and cellular models on the iPad 2 points to the MDM9615. Reply
mutil0r - Wednesday, March 07, 2012 - linkIt's sort of a no brainer that the new ipad has a qualcomm modem in it (given how Apple has used their modems in previous devices and no one else can actually supply the volumes that Apple needs)
While it is impressive that the LTE battery life is so close to the non-LTE life (testing methodology not known), the article doesn't mention the almost 70% larger battery anywhere, while making it sound in the concluding line that the LTE chip alone might be responsible for the battery life.
The 10 hours for the WiFi model is not really that impressive (even with the 2048 x 1536 display) when you consider the humongous 42.5 WHr battery. Reply
Draiko - Wednesday, March 07, 2012 - linkIt looks like the A5x SOC is a 65nm power hog. 42.5 Whr battery for 9-10 hours of usage is kinda dismal when it comes to power efficiency. Reply
philbotimus - Wednesday, March 07, 2012 - linkUmmm, the original A5 was 45nm, so the A5X is at least that small.

Liability Insurance
Liability insurance protects your company in case it is sued or held legally liable for injury or loss caused by a mistake made by your company. The development of your risk management plan as part of your business insurance plan will limit the risk of error; however, that risk cannot be eliminated. Liability insurance covers the business for this risk.For small businesses, many insurers package liability insurance into a larger insurance policy including property and casualty insurance. Most insurers call this packaged policy the "business owners' policy" or BOP. Your business may be better served by a separate commercial general liability policy or CGL. The coverage afforded under both types of policies are almost always the same.
There are two types of liability policy:
- Claims Made – The insurer that covers your business when the claim is made is the insurer that will cover the claim. If you are a construction or design professional, this is the most likely liability policy choice because it can be years after the completion of a project for a defect to become apparent.
- Occurrence – The insurer that insures you at the time of the occurrence is the insurer that will handle the claim. The insurer is obligated to work with you until the claim is resolved even if you do not renew your policy with the insurer. These liability policies are more prevalent for businesses that would typically be aware of a potential claim immediately.
The two types of policies are the same with the exception of when the insurer's obligation starts and ends. The liability policy provides coverage for damage from an "occurrence" during the policy period. An "occurrence" generally means "accident" occurring to a third-party (someone other than you or the insurer). However, your liability insurance policy may include a definition of "occurrence" to include "continuous or repeated exposure to substantially the same harmful conditions" that includes coverage for injury to a third-party for those kinds of injuries that cause damage over time. An example could be a gravel pit where a neighboring homeowner becomes ill due to a constant inhalation of gravel dust from the pit.
What is Not Covered
Liability insurance is a function of the substantive state law of your state. One state's courts may rule that a liability insurance policy covers a particular occurrence, while a neighboring state rules it does not. There are some types of occurrences that are not covered and are excluded from the definition of occurrence across all liability insurance policies:
- Injury to a Worker- Workers are covered by workers' compensation insurance and workers are not "third-parties" and, therefore, worker injury is not covered.
- Automobile Liability – Damage or loss caused by a company vehicle is covered by a commercial auto policy specifically sold separately from the liability policy.
- Damage to Business Property – Damage to business property or location is covered by your property and casualty insurance and your business is the "first-party" and liability coverage only applies to third-party claims.
- Pollution – Most liability policies do not cover pollution. If your business will or can harm the environment, then you will need a separate policy or a pollution endorsement.
- Products Completed Coverage – Liability policies do cover loss or damage caused by a completed product or service in most cases as long as there is a products-completed operations clause in the policy. Liability policies do not cover loss or damage due to the costs associated with the removal of a product or a recall of the product. There is separate coverage for that situation called product withdrawal coverage.
Understanding Limits
There are two types of limits in a standard liability policy:
- Single Occurrence Limit – This is the limit the insurer will pay on one occurrence.
- Aggregate Limit – This is the maximum amount the insurer will pay during any policy period for all of the occurrences in the policy period. Generally, this is two times the single occurrence limit.
Insurers have two duties in the event of a claim. The insurer has a duty to defend your company and a duty to indemnify. Indemnify means to pay the claimed loss. The duty to defend your company is the duty of the insurer to pay for your legal representation and all associated costs. The limits in your policy may be inclusive of defense costs or defense costs may be outside of limits.
You want to have a clear understanding of how your policy works. If you have a $500,000 single limit and that amount is to include defense costs, then your limit could be substantially reduced by the costs and fees associated with your defense. Keep in mind that your aggregate limit is your total amount of insurance for the policy period. You will want this number to be a realistic reflection of your company's exposure to risk.
Endorsements and Exclusions
Endorsements add coverage to your policy and exclusions take away or limit coverage under your liability insurance policy. We will address various types of exclusions and endorsements applicable to the liability insurance policy. Bellow is a list of the most common types of endorsements:
- Liquor Liability-This is an endorsement to your liability policy adding coverage if your business sells, serves, produces, distributes or facilitates the delivery of alcohol to the public.
- Employment Practices -As the population ages and as our workplace becomes more diverse, claims against employers alleging discrimination are increasing. This endorsement adds coverage for such claims subject to a number of limitations.
- Employee Benefits - If you or an employee will manage employee benefits such as health, 401k's or pensions, then this endorsement will add coverage to protect you against claims of faulty administration or negligence.
Liability Insurance is a critical element of your business insurance plan and it can be complicated. Choosing a good insurance professional and creating a statement about what your business does so you can work with that professional to understand your options is important in making sure your liability insurance is an adequate part of your business insurance plan.

On February 20th, Anti-Gravity Bunny will turn 5 (and I'll turn 28). From day one on Blogger, AGB has always been first and foremost something I've done for myself. No offense to you guys, but I started writing about records because I would get super excited about really cool shit and wanted to share with some anonymous internetters. The fact that there are people out there who cared (and still care) about my enthused incoherent ramblings continues to surprise me.
So AGB has turned into this perfectly symbiotic relationship where we're both happy and neither of us ask too much of each other. I appreciate that. None of you are exploding my email box asking for more content or wishing I'd get back to my roots (whatever the fuck that would even mean I don't know) and I just post about records and wet my pants every time I get a comment. It's like we were made for each other. This mutual kindness deserves acknowledgement and celebration.
I asked some of my most favoritest artists that I've discovered & befriended over the past 5 years to contribute an unreleased original piece of music that I would gather into a free digital compilation of new exclusive awesomeness. I'm calling it You're All The Fucking Best because obviously. This seemed like the perfect gift for both you and me. I can't even tell you how fucking psyched I am about this. It's basically the coolest thing ever. That image up there shows you who's contributed so far (I'm still waiting on a few more but we're already at an hour and 45 minutes) and let me just tell you that every track is a goddamn slice of heaven.
So this post is just an announcement. The official comp will drop on the 20th (if all goes according to plan). If you're like me, that means you have 12 days to hyperventilate, shit yourself, and scream your throat raw until you can devour this bitchin comp.
And I would be a total jackass if I didn't remind yall of the crazy cool show I'm putting on also in celebration of my 5 years. The Saturday after You're All The Fucking Best gets released, 2/23, it's party time at PA's Lounge in Somerville. High Aura'd, Planning For Burial, Giles Corey, and Ehnahre will all be playing. And maybe, mayyyybe, if I can get my shit together, I'll have a few handmade copies of this comp that I'll hand out to the first people who show up. How's that for incentive? This show was already worth the trek regardless of where you're coming from, now even more so? I can't even handle this. I'm freaking out just thinking about it. Nothing but good times ahead.

Young Vermont hunter busted for bolting antlers on dead doe
Published: Saturday, March 14, 2009 | 2:03 PM ET
Canadian Press NewsItem/NewsComponent/NewsLines/ByLine
BURLINGTON, Vt. - A man who bolted antlers to the head of a dead doe and posed for a photograph with the deer was fined $400 and jailed for game violations.
Marcel Fournier, 19, shot the deer the evening of Nov. 22 and used lag bolts and epoxy to attach a 10-point rack, officials said. He then checked in the kill as lawful game at Barnie's Market.
It's illegal to kill an antlerless deer, and it's also illegal to hunt at night.
The Concord resident admitted to the killing and led a game warden to the deer's remains after an anonymous caller alerted authorities. Fournier said he had "quite a time" drilling and fastening the antlers, authorities said.
Game warden David Gregory said the antlers didn't look or feel right.
"When you grabbed them, you'd feel movement," he said.
Col. David LeCours, chief warden of the state Department of Fish and Wildlife, said the size of the antlers relative to the size of the deer seemed off.
"Something wasn't natural about them, in addition to the fact that they weren't natural," he said.
Fournier was sentenced to 10 days in jail Feb. 18 for taking a deer in a closed season. He won't qualify for a state hunting, fishing or trapping licence for at least three years.
LeCours said add-on antlers are the stuff of legend, but that it's the first documented case of it in Vermont.

I bought the Lexmark s405 printer a few weeks back. It has nice looks and the ability to connect wirelessly. It is also very quiet which is a advantage. In terms of value overall though, I would have to rate this as very low (1 out of 10) - this is due to the fact that Lexmark have now introduced to their new inkjet printers - including the s405 - a 'lockdown' microchip.
This chip means you have absolutley no way to refill (either yourself ot high street shop) any of the cartridges unless you send it back to lexmark or buy a new one. The microchip tracks the ink levels and once empty will not function until you have replaced it. Even if you leave the label intact and refill the cartridge before it has run out it remembers the previous ink level - so either way Lexmark have you over a barrel. (A quick google search of US sites will confirm the above).
The really frustrating thing is that even if you have ink in other cartridges of the printer, the printer will not fucntion until you replace the one emty one. This means you need to have spares to hand or put up with a printer thats out of action until you get to the shops!
My new s405 is now for sale!
First of all the good news. The printer prints, the fax faxes, the copier copies and the scanner scans. Even the WiFi connection configured itself seamlessly. Now for why I have put it up for sale:
a) The scanner is incapable of scanning correctly to pdf. In a multipage document some pages are upside down, some the right way up, some are rotated 90 degrees clock-wise, and some rotated 90 degrees anti-clockwise. It is impossible to avoid it happening and impossible to rectify it manually. Even my distributor repeated the errors on his own system and has been trying, without success, to obtain a fix from Lexmark.
Secondly, the scans make enormous file sizes - typically 1 mb per page - so a five page document takes up 5 Mb of space!
I store electronically a wide range of office documents from bank statements to signed contracts. For me, and on this one reason alone, Lexmark is unfit for purpose.
b) The outrageous running costs. I had been led to believe that Lexmark had mended its ways - but not for me. The Return program is not even available where I live (Cyprus) so I'm stuck with single use cartridges at 20 Euros a piece.
Lexmark never again.
Hugely disappointing - 2/5
OK, so when the printer decides to print, the quality is actually very nice. The scanning was also good.
However, within the first day of using my printer, 5 different error messages had appeared. I accept that printers go wrong, but to this degree, and on the first day is just not acceptable. Some error messages hardly made sense (for example, I had apparently not inserted the cyan cartridge... I clearly had - and correctly - then it printed the document when I 'OK'd the error message.)
The instruction manual and online help is FAR from helpful, and only seems to cover a small amount of what is actually needed by the consumer. There is no explanation or help with the on-printer controls.
I can't wait until my printer has deteriorated further. Ha.
Not reccommended.
I had constant error messages and phonecalls at my expense to try and fix the problem and finally had a replacement sent to me and so far so good this round...
This is one brand I will never buy again. I have put up with the Lexmark S405 for 2-3 years, and it has only printed without problems about 20% of the time. The other 80% of printing jobs have required computer and printer reboots, reconnections with the printer, and fussing around for 20-30mins EACH JOB.
Apart from the huge liability one buys with this printer in the form of ink cartridges that last no more than 6 months for the occasional home user, the unreliability of the software makes this printer a really poor choice of printer/MFC. I will be looking at the other brands, spending a little more, and probably going for a laser printer/MFC since the toners never dry out. I'm certain this will be cheaper in the long run, for money and for my time.
I rate this printer 1/10. Avoid it like the plague.

Jack Jones is a professional sports handicapper that has been beating the books with NBA betting for years. In the past, handicappers were making a decent amount of money by fading teams playing the second of two back-to-back games on the road, but if you want to be profitable with your NBA picks then you have to adjust and change with the times as soon as the bookmakers do. Here he talks about handicapping comeback winners, teams who came back from a large deficit which would require them to spend a lot of effort.
Angle #1 – Teams down by double digits at half time who came back to win the game.
This scenario is a solid situation in which a fade is in order, as the team that comes back to win only covers the spread 41.8% of the time in the following game. You should look for spots to go against these teams in their next game and could have a 58.2% winning system on your hands.
Angle #2 – Team coming back on the road when the next game is also on the road.
Here you are still dealing with teams that came back from a double digit deficit at the half to still win the game, but you are adding in the variable that the game was played on the road and the next game is also away from home. The percentage of winners when you fade these teams has jumped up to 63.5%.
Angle #3 – Team coming back was at home with their next game on the road, playing a team coming off a home game.
This time the team you want to fade is coming off a win at home after being down double digits at the half. They then have to go on the road for this game to play a team that is getting their second straight game on their home floor. Now the angle has jumped up to 66% ATS, a very profitable winning system!

Blake point guard Andre Smith, one of the state's best juniors, is receiving strong interest from a pair of programs from major conferences -- Clemson and Ole Miss.
The Rebels, in particular, really like what they see, Blake coach Winston Davis said.
"They started (showing interest) when he was a sophomore," Davis said.
What Smith lacks in height (he's 5-foot-9), he makes up for in ability. He recently scored his 1,000th career point, and is averaging 18 points and five assists per game.
"He's got something not too many point guards have," Davis said. "He can score. And he has a super mid-range game."

Who, When and Why Built the Great Wall of China?
Who built the Great Wall?
|Statue of a Builder
Soldiers, common people and criminals built it.
Who built it? There are many answers. Some say Emperor Qin Shihuang. Some say ordinary working people of ancient China, and some say it was slaves who built the wall. This is not an easy question to answer, just like the wall was not easy to build.
Luckily, experts have given us the most credible answer. Three groups of people built the wall: soldiers, common people and criminals, not the emperors of each dynasty including Qin Shihuang himself. During the Qin Dynasty (221 - 207 BC), 20% of the country's population was forced to build it. Many people died during its construction, due to the heavy work, a short time deadline and difficult conditions.
When was the Great Wall built?
Construction started in the Spring and Autumn Period (770 - 476 BC), and lasted until the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644).
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, the state of Chu (11th Century BC-223BC) started to build the first wall. The Qi, Yan, Wei, Zhao and Qin states later joined the effort. After Emperor Qin Shihuang unified the six states, he ordered General Meng Tian to connect the existing walls and to extend them further as a front line defense against possible invasion. Thus the Great Wall was formed. It extended from Lintao (presently Lintao County in Dingxi City of Gansu Province) in the west and ended at Liaodong (presently the eastern and southern parts of Liaoning Province) in the east. It was called "Wan Li Chang Cheng" (The Long Wall of 10,000 Li).
During subsequent dynasties, the wall was extended, repaired and modified. The section built in the Han Dynasty (206BC-220) is the longest. During the Ming Dynasty, the wall was substantially repaired on more than twenty occasions. Today, the best known and most visited sections are at Badaling, Mutianyu, Simatai and Jinshanling and these were built in the Ming Dynasty.
In total, 20 states and dynasties made great contribution to the wall's construction during China's long history.
Why was the Great Wall built?
The purpose of building it was to protect people and territory from invasion.
|Statue of A Soldier Guarding the Wall
The walls, together with beacon towers, passes, fortification, etc. created an elaborate defensive system providing Chinese society with a safe and peaceful environment. During the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period, there were many states, so they built separate sections to prevent invasion by other states. Furthermore, states in the northern part of China built some sections to defend against the northern nomadic tribes. In the Qin Dynasty, the Wall was mainly used to protect the country from nomadic tribes. In the reign of Emperor Wu of Western Han, the Wall played a significant role in protecting the main force as well as being a military base in the wars. Every time the country conquered new territory, the Wall would be extended, so that the local military force would be strengthened. With the help of the Great Wall, the Han Dynasty conquered more and more regions in northwestern China. In the Ming Dynasty, General Qi Jiguang reinforced the sections from Shanhaiguan Pass to Juyongguan Pass by building many watch towers and then trained army based on local landform to defeat invasions.

Australian foundations and the downturn
Leat, Diana (2010) Australian foundations and the downturn. The Australian Centre for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Studies, Brisbane.
|Published Version (PDF 1MB)
Building on the investigation of the Charity Commission (2009) on the effects of the economic downturn on the largest trusts and foundation in the United Kingdom, the purpose of this research was to assess the extent to which Australian trusts and foundations were taking an actively strategic approach to their investments and pursuit of mission (including grant-making), and the relationship between the two in the context of the economic downturn. Focus was given to identifying the issues raised as a consequence of the economic downturn, rather than providing a generalised snapshot of the 'average' foundations response. In September 2009, semi-structured, in depth interviews were conducted with executives of 23 grant making trusts and foundations. The interviews for this research focused on the largest grant makers in terms of grant expenditure, however included foundations from different geographical locations and from across different cause areas. It is important to stress at the outset that this was not a representative sample of foundations; the study aimed to identify issues rather than to present a representative picture of the 'average' foundation's response. It is also important to note that the study was undertaken in September 2009 at a time when many foundations were beginning to feel more optimistic about the longer term future, but aware of continuing and possibly worsening short term income problems. But whatever the financial future, some of the underlying issues, concerning investment and grant making management practices, raised in this report will be of continuing relevance worthy of wider discussion. If a crisis is too good to waste, it is also too good to forget. One other introductory point – as previously noted, interviews for this study were conducted in September 2009 – just one month prior to the introduction of the new Private Ancillary Fund (PAF) legislation which replaced the previous Prescribed Private Fund (PPF) arrangement1. References to PAFs and/or PPFs reflect that time.

This year I noticed that my backyard tomatoes are eaten by rats at night. I can have close encounters with a couple of rats on any night. All I have to do is to carry a flash light, silently/quickly walk to the tomatoes area, then turn on the flashlight, then I will see 1-3 rats on my tomatoes, face to face with me.:furious: These little darn things sometimes will run quickly, but many a time, one or two of them will be frozen there. I tried to use a stick to hit them but I could never inflict any harm.
I setup 10 traps all around my tomatoes along their paths but they simply zip thru the traps, never touching them.
They always escape thru my fence and into a neighbor's backyard. I will contact the neighbor alerting him this. But more importantly, how can I kill the rats face to face in close range. I thought of a BB gun but my yard is very small and the neighbors are within tens of feet away. What else do you suggest? As long as they have my tomatoes, they don't seem to touch my traps.
As a teenager buddies and I used to go rat stomping at the local dump... Heavy boots and two pair of heavy pants were the uniform of the day. It was a very old dump, and there were some very large and sometimes aggressive rats that would object to being stomped - and chase back. The buddy with the 22 rifle would help here as needed.
This activity seemed like a good idea at the time... :whistling2:
Once in the dip net, roll it to contain and silently dispatch at your disgression.
And I'm not sure whether I can do the stomping part. lol. that's a bit too extreme for my stomach to bear. :no:
Malcom X reports in his autobiography that he dispatched NYC rats with a baseball bat. Pretty tough dude. At least that is how I remember his story.

Go to the co-op and get some rat pellets and put them under something the rats can still get to. Buy one of these, they work great for grabbing things.

One rat finally got served in the traps I set on top of the fence earlier tonight. :thumbsup:
I also bought a Crosman .177 air rifle and I'll get it next week. But I heard that unless u get to their den, it's not possible to wipe them out.
A frog gig works great on stationary targets.
Put peanut butter on the traps...they have to work hard to get it off..that triggers the trap...
You want to put the traps as close to a wall as possible...if you watch them, they scurry next to a wall for protection...
One neat trick....get a large tube...put it next to a wall...put the trap inside the tube....make sure the tube is big enough for the trap to operate....
Best thing...a cat.
Aww, you caught a baby one! LOL! It's nothing like the cat sized one's I've seen in horse barns.
The best control is a dog. Like a Jack Russel or rat terrier or dachshund or Corgi. Those will do more damage to a rat colony for sport than will any domesticated spoiled cat or even a hungry feral cat. My sister's Corgi's keep her commercial barn rat free with a vengeance! Of course, in an urban situation, they will bark some, as they get excited, but they can do some real damage to rattus.
I beg to differ. You can kill someone with a Crossman pump BB gun. 20 pumps give you roughly 900fps.
I have a few stray cats that like to chill out under my deck - I'd be glad to ship them to you!!!

The best race I have had yet, not just because of the actual racing but because the person driving the GTO was cool as hell.
I dont race much, this was my 3rd race in a year with my XT but I had to.
1st race, I get a bad launch because I am not sure if he is going to race. When the light turned green his tires squeel and I reacted by trying to launch , What a horrible launch. I got lucky because he couldnt get traction. When we both finally learned how to drive I had a half car length on him. By the end of 3rd he had me by half a car length then we stopped at another light.
2nd race, I get another bad launch , and we are even all the way to 85mph. Please note that I was ahead of him by a car length and he caught up by 75mph.
3rd race, light was already green but we are talking and dont notice ( no traffic was behind us, it was 1am) so he asked if we wanted to go again and we did. He gets the early jump and I finally get a good launch and we are even till 90 .
The whole time he is like, A FORESTER!!!!! He didnt belive me when I told him it was stock. He had Virginia plates. Cool guy though he gave the thumbs up like 4 times.

Current and Former Military-Whats your political affiliation?
I've always know military members to be pro Republican (Im actually a registered Republican), and why you've chosen a particular party, but wanted to know how the military members of the fanatics went. I understand if you want to remain silent about this, but Im hoping for some good replies.
I always understood the Republican party to be more beneficial for the military, but I intend to remain open on who I vote for in the future.
Used to be conservative in my early years, but as I got older, became more moderate. Now I consider myself an independent and not registered with any party. I chose to be an independent since I'm conservative on some issues, liberal in others. That, and my choice is probably related to external influences such as education, world/life experiences, wife, etc that shapes my thinking. Also, I'm not really impressed with either party lately - given what's going on.
Should make this a poll! :hi:
Firmly independent. I believe in promoting the rights of people unless doing so infringes on the rights of others, responsible and necessary military funding, and fiscal responsibility. Democrats have a huge lead in the first, neither cares for the second (though Republicans tend to prefer over-spending and over-use of the military relative to Democrats tendency to prefer underfunding and over-use of the military), and neither party really advances fiscal responsibility. A political "quiz" would put me center leaning libertarian, but the libertarian party isn't very libertarian on many issues so I can't identify with them. That's only a few of the many areas of politics I have strong feelings about, but those are some of the biggest ones for me.
i'm not military, but i agree that in my view the military has historically been more pro republican, but i have been surprised in the last 10 or more years that it seems to be shifting. friends i have in the military who in the past i would say have more republican views really took a sharp turn after the bush years and war in iraq. the multiple and extended deployments for a war, which most americans and they themselves saw as unnecessary, really had them rethink their party affiliation. friends i have that were deployed were especially pissed about being sent to iraq and how they were treated and overextended time and again. they are the ones who take the brunt of the anti american views when our reputation across the globe is tarnished by our international blunders. when i talk to them they are outright embarrassed of how the war in iraq was handled and how incompetent those in charge seemed to have been, especially the administration and manipulation of intelligence.
Registered republican, but voted libertarian in the last election. Plan to do so until things start changing.
I consider myself Conservative, not Republican.
I dont vote for a party, I vote for the best man, however I like my liberties and do not like goverment interference into my personal life, possesions and income.
staunch libertarian.
Had I went in military I would have still been independent. I vote with logic and what is best for the people and the country.
Started as a democrat, became a republican, currently an independent.
Republican all the way. Democrats are very anti-military. Look at the Clinton years when he deactivated a bunch of army divisions, closes military bases (brac), got rid of the air force SAC and TAC, etc

Some info on the ballot measures, from King County Elections:
Proposition 1, Operations Levy
Seattle Public Schools is asking for voter approval of a $551.9 million levy of taxes over three years. Proposed levy would replace an expiring one.
Funds would go toward: 6th period classes at middle and high school levels; teachers and instructional assistants; textbooks and classroom supplies; bilingual and special education services; student transportation, security, maintenance and other operations; student activities, such as athletics, arts, extra-curricular and co-curricular activities; professional development and training.
The estimated levy rates per $1,000 of assessed value will range from $1.45 per one thousand for 2014 collections to $1.60 per one thousand for 2016 collections.
More info, including statements for and against, can be found here.
Proposition 2, Capital Levy
Seattle Public Schools requests voter approval of a capital levy of $694.9 million for the Building Excellence Program, Phase IV. The proposed levy will replace an expiring levy.
Passage of Proposition No. 2 would allow the levy of taxes over a six year period to pay for construction measures for earthquake and other safety projects at 37 schools, to construct, renovate, replace or make additions to 11 elementary schools, one middle school and one K-8 school, construction of building condition and infrastructure improvements and major preventive maintenance at 20 schools, and acquisition and installation of technology improvements and other capital improvements throughout the district to meet the current and future educational needs of its students. Such funds may be used only to support the construction, modernization, remodeling to school facilities or technology improvements and training.
The total amount to be collected will be $115,816,667 annually, to be collected in each of the six years commencing 2014 through 2019. The estimated levy rates per $1,000 of assessed value will range from $1.00 per one thousand for 2014 collections to $0.82 per one thousand for 2019 collections. The exact levy rate will be adjusted based upon the actual assessed value of the property within the District at the time of the levy.

Data splitting in tally is very necessary upon completion of the financial year.Data splitting means separation of two financial year of the company data. Data spiting help you to avoid creating a new company for every financial year. If you create a new company for the new financial year, then you will have to go a long way e.g. creating all the new ledger, grouping, opening balances sheet further, there will not be consistency in the financial reports. So, the best solutions is to split your data between two difference year. It will also speed up your tally software and it will require less MB spaces.
Recently one tally nine reader Ms.Shakuntala, raised a problem while she was trying to split the company for the new financial year starting from 1st April, 2010. When she try to split the data, she was facing an error namely incorrect due date for bill ref. no…. due to this, she was not able to split her data. After modifying that particular bill due date, she had successfully splited her data.
Tally support helped her to identify the particular bill
Let me explain you this problem and solutions in more details.
when you create a supplier ledger, it will ask for default credit period. I will suggest you, even if you don't have any credit policy for your supplier/debtors, you should specify a default credit period of 15 days, 30 days or whatever you wish so.Do this job starting from the first bill of the .supplier. IF you set a default credit period for a supplier/customer after entering few bills, then re enter all the past bill of that supplier again setting a default due date.
If you don't do this, then tally system will automatically pick a due date which might be a date prior to the commencing of the current financial year and due to this, you will not be able to split your data!
If you are facing such problem, and not able to identify that particular bill which is creating problem in data splitting then don't' worry. Here is a way to find out that bill. First of all, run your data splitting wizard and it will tell you the reference number of the bill which has an incorrect due date.After that, following process, will help you to find out this bill.
Go to Display from the main menu of tally.
Select Statements of accounts
Select outstanding
select Payable (you may follow the same process step by step in case of receivable)
It will show you all the bill reference number, voucher number, name of supplier and its due date. alternatively you
Alternatively, Press Alt+F12
and select the criteria as shown below
in the blank field here, type the particular ref number of the bill and you will find that bill which is creating the problem. Once you find out that bill, go to alteration mode of that bill, and remove the due date . keep it blank or select any bill falling under the current FY and accept the screen.
Do share your experience with tally nine readers if ever you have used tally support.

Lacrosse news straight to your inbox.
Tuesday August 6th, 2013 1:18am
The NCAA quarterfinals held at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana — the home of the NFL's Indianapolis Colts — turned out to be two extremely exciting matchups that went down to the wire, as both Denver and Duke enjoyed thrilling wins over North Carolina and Notre Dame, respectively.
Inside Lacrosse's Casey Vock was "on the scene" in downtown Indianapolis to live blog/Tweet both games, which drew an impressive 7,749 fans — a significantly greater number than the reported 3,939 at College Park on Saturday afternoon.
Don't call it a comeback, Tierney's been here for years. That was ringing out in my head as watched a cool, calm Bill Tierney walk into the postgame conference. And perhaps rightly so. His Pioneers — perhaps a favorite to win the ECAC championship before losing to Ohio State in overtime — were able to overcome a daunting 6-0 deficit against one of the most productive offenses in the nation in the North Carolina Tar Heels. It was the first time that a team had overcome a five-goal halftime deficit in the Quarterfinals to come away victorious.
"North Carolina," Tierney said in a tone of relief after speaking about how grateful he was to see his team have the opportunity to compete in the NCAA tournament, in a venue like Lucas Oil Stadium. "What a train that was trying to stop that coming downhill at us early. "
The Tar Heels had seemingly asserted control of the game with commanding 6-0 lead less than 10 minutes into the contest, just pumping shot after shot into the net, including four goals that came either in transition or in unsettled situations. However, it became clear at that point that transition was key for the Heels — looking at the stat sheet, which showed Marcus Holman had not yet registered a point.
It also showed that Denver had already put netminder Jamie Faus in the game in place of Ryan LaPlante who had made only one save up to that point. By the time Holman did in fact put his first point on the board — a feed to Pat Foster with 5:25, which was a sign the Heels were getting their six-on-six offense chugging — Denver was finding itself offensively and settling in on defense.
The Tar Heels would score two of the three final goals of the first half, still trailing 9-4. However, as Holman pointed out after the game, the fact that North Carolina had seen most of its scoring coming could have very well helped to prevent the Tar Heels — averaging 13.5 goals per game — from finding its step in set offenses.
Consider that in the second half, UNC scored just twice — once in each quarter. While Holman said the team never wants to hold back in transition opportunities, he said it might have contributed to their offenses struggles later in the game.
"We prided ourselves all year on our early offense and transition," said Holman, a Tewaaraton finalist who finished the season with 80 points.
"We feel whenever that ball crosses the midline we have six offensive threats. We certainly showed that with Ryan Kilpatrick, Greg McBride and Mark McNeill stepping in with two goals. I think we couldn't really get into a rhythm in our six-on-six offense all game. Obviously two goals in the second half is not going to get it done especially against a fantastic offensive team like Denver, hats off to them. (Denver) played tremendous and their defense was solid. We didn't get too many great open looks on the cage and when we did they made great saves."
Holman added that he thought the team's defense played fantastic against the Pioneers, and that it was disappointed that the game was decided by a goal off a rebound with just seconds remaining.
"The ball bounces a different way, and we could have a smile on our faces."
Tierney and his players also commended their own defense. And while Denver players said they didn't think LaPlante was playing poorly early on, they said Faus provided an emotional jolt for a team needing it. LaPlante made only one save before Faus came in, a change that actually resulted in an open goal score by Evan Connell. Faus made a 11 saves in total, including four in the second quarter and four in the third.
"Like Eric (Law) said, early on we hit two pipes and the bounces didn't really go our way," Faus said of the momentum swing. "But after that we just tried to get into the hole as quickly as we can and just talk through everything. I think when we talked we really started to settle down in there."
Faus his performance might have been helped by the simple fact he didn't expect to be called upon in the first frame, a departure from the half-and-half rotation assistant coach Trevor Tierney has implemented this season.
"I didn't know I was going to be going in, but you always have to be ready. When I got in there I just tried to get a feel for how the defensemen in front of me — Kyle (Hercher), Harley Brown, Drew Babb, Carson Cannon — were feeling and they were all calm so we just went from there and talked through everything."
With Faus solid in net and the Heels only getting off 14 shots in the second half, the Denver offense came alive, outscoring UNC 8-2, though never leading until Law scored the game-winner with 13 seconds on the clock — a goal that came off a rebound from a shot by Eric Adamson that Kieran Burke blocked.
"From the offensive side, we felt that we were getting good opportunities in the first quarter, especially with our first two possessions," said Law, who led Denver with three goals and three assists. He was right to point out that the Pioneers were a bit snake bit in the first half, hitting a slew of pipes on quality shots. That changed in the second half.
"I think it was just as much on the offensive product of settle the ball down, get really good possessions and when you get the shot, stick them, and if for some reason the ball did get on the ground make sure we get back and limit their transitions. But they're an unbelievably athletic team and showed it out there today."
UNC head coach Joe Breschi, clearly emotional and feeling for his team, said this Tar Heels squad broke new ground in the new era of Tar Heels lacrosse. He said the legacy left by the team's eight seniors would go a long way in ensuring that the program continued on an upward trajectory.
"The seniors, I can't say enough about what they brought to the table to North Carolina lacrosse program and what they mean to the future of the program. Marcus Holman, our sole captain, was just phenomenal as a leader, as a player, but he backed it up every day on and off the field. Guys like Kieran McDonald and Davey Emala were just tremendous leaders as well. And the whole group, all eight of them. They've been great. They brought along a young team. We have a lot of guys returning, which is terrific. But it doesn't make it any easier right now. We feel like we did break some ground this year with the ACC championship and breaking a few streaks here and there. But we knew it was going to take some time. It's just unfortunate it had to happen today."
Tierney also recognized how special it is for his team to get this far, to be able to compete at the highest level and to do so in front of a big audience in an NFL stadium — as employees at Lucas Oil Stadium said, "the house that Peyton Manning built.'
"This is a rare thing that these guys get to go through and we're thankful for it, we're happy for it and we're thrilled about it," said Tierney, who now has 50 wins and 19 losses as the Pioneers head coach.
"We're thankful for Indianapolis and the people who put on this great event and the NCAA for having such a great event. Mostly, I'm proud of these young men and teammates for persevering. You don't get too many opportunities in life to fight through such adversity and come back ahead. I'm just proud of everybody at the University of Denver and everybody in our organization."
Denver will take on Syracuse in the Final Four next weekend in Philadelphia.
It was a slug fest from start to finish, as the Duke Blue Devils rode a five-goal performance from senior midfielder David Lawson to advance to the NCAA semifinals, edging Notre Dame 12-11 in front of a seemingly pro-Irish crowd. And with that win, John Danowski becomes the first coach to lead a program to seven consecutive Final Four appearances in his first seven seasons as a head coach.
"I have to give a lot of credit to our coaches Ron Caputo and Matt Danowski," said Danowski, who is now 109-29 at Duke and 328-168 overall. "They did a fabulous job developing these kids — their development in the hybrid of our offense to face Notre Dame's talent and defense, a team that we have continually struggled against traditionally. (Notre Dame is) a team who we usually score five or six goals on. I give a lot of credit to the kids who continue to work hard."
In what has become one of Division I's best rivalries, Duke found itself down to the Irish three times in a game that saw the score tied seven different times throughout the game. The largest deficit, oddly enough, came late in the game after the Blue Devils tied the game at 9-9 on Josh Dionne's second of three goals and the Irish responded with back-to-back goals from Jimmy Marlatt and Conor Doyle to pull ahead 11-9.
But never pulling back and continuing to press against the Irish defense and John Kemp — who saw the ball well all day and made 13 saves — the Blue Devils cranked out three consecutive goals from Christian Walsh, Dionne and then Lawson's game winner, which came on a strong individual effort, powering into his defender and winding back for a hard overhand crank that sent silenced a large Notre Dame contingent in the stands.
"I don't think I did anything in particular," Lawson said. "I kept shooting. I took 11 shots and it was falling for me today, so I just kept shooting. I hitched my left hand and I just let it rip. I tried to pull it low and away and that's where it went."
A huge stat line for the Blue Devils was the performance of face-off specialist Brandan Fowler, recently named the ACC's Defensive Player of the Year. Fowler won 16 of 26 draws, including 5 of 6 in the crucial fourth quarter.
Another key stat in a game that played out so closely was that the Irish botched five clear attempts.
"I would love to say they (Duke) broke those up, but we (Notre Dame) broke those up," Irish head coach Kevin Corrigan said. "It was a combination where I think three of them were just bad ball-handling and two of them were ones where we just got ourselves out of whack and couldn't rebalance the field. Those are mistakes we should not be making at this point in the season. You've got to turn your stops into possessions and we didn't do it effectively and at the level you have to do it in a game like this. Those are five possessions that we gave back to them after stopping them defensively. You're making it an up-hill climb when you do that, and that's on us."
Corrigan said he and his team knew this game could be a hard-fought, close battle that would be separated only by players making plays.
"I'm disappointed in the result because I thought we did a lot of the things that we thought were going to be important to win the game," said Corrigan, who is now 241-114 in his 25 seasons as the helm in South Bend.
"We put ourselves in the position to win the game. We put ourselves in a great position to win the game, but we said all along it was going to come down to making plays and at the end of the game they made a couple plays more than we did. I thought for as many good things as we did offensively, we didn't put enough shots on goal. We had a chance to really put them under a lot more pressure in the cage and we just didn't do that and that's disappointing because I felt like we were doing the things there we wanted to do. At the other end of the field, there were too many of the goals that we talked about that could hurt us. There were too many of the transition things that they do. They're very, very good at it and we just didn't do a good enough job of stopping those."
Asked after the game if he could speak to the level of accomplishment of the 2013 Notre Dame squad, Corrigan was quick to point out that the loss was not something they could easily accept as a program.
"We're competing at a very high level these last few seasons," he said. "These didn't come here to finish as a eight seed. They came here to win a national championship."
Despite the loss, both Kavanagh and Marlatt said the experience of playing in an NFL stadium in the midwest was something they'd never forget.
"For me it was awesome," Kavanagh said. "The parents come out every weekend, so that was nothing new. It's just a couple of hours south. It was just like a home game for us. You also had the local support in full effect too, so it was real nice playing here."
Special for Danowski is the shared experience of reaching the Final Four alongside his son and assistant coach Matt, a former Blue Devil himself who sits at the top of the NCAA career scoring charts with 353 career points. Matt stopped playing in the pro indoor ranks of the National Lacrosse League to pursue the coaching opportunity, something his father pointed out was indicative of how strongly he feels about the opportunity to coach.
"It is (special), but I would let him know that — he works for me," said the elder Danowski, cracking a smile. "But it really is. He loves the game. He loves the game at all levels. He loves indoor and he had to give it up to coach. … He's got terrific insights and I believe he has the makings of a terrific coach if this is what he wants to stay. And, you know, these Duke guys are never pride short."
Danowski, like his players, said he was impressed with the attendance and the overall atmosphere of the venue.
"For a guy that grew up on Long Island, which was supposed to be the center of the lacrosse universe," Danowski said, joking under his breath that might be debated by people in Maryland and other lacrosse hotbeds. The coach pointed out that the Blue Devils faced Marquette in Wisconsin in front of more than 4,000 fans.
"I can tell you no one dreamed of coming to Wisconsin or Indiana to play. (The quarterfinals were) so well received. The people could not have been nicer. The setting was spectacular."
Duke will face Cornell in the Final Four next weekend in Philadelphia.

Learn How to Love Healthy Foods
Find out how you can use all 5 senses to learn to love healthy foods.
Love edamame? Loathe broccoli? Run screaming from salmon? You may think that your love or hate of certain (especially healthy) foods is hard-wired in your taste buds, but it turns out a lot of our tastes for foods can be learned and relearned—even as adults. Our flavor preferences are malleable: "Eating is a multisensory experience with many opportunities to intervene," says Barb Stuckey, author of Taste What You're Missing: The Passionate Eater's Guide to Why Good Food Tastes Good (Free Press, 2012). While there are only five tastes that we can detect—sweet, sour, bitter, salty and umami, which means savory or meaty—there are many factors that impact flavor. "A food's texture, how it sounds, how appetizing it looks and how it smells, all play a role in flavor perception," says Stuckey.

The simplest most direct way I know to do this would be to use pure functions, i.e.,

Tablet vitamin C have always had heartburn for me. But this powder vitamin C is good. And I can control the concentration of vitamin C with water. All of my family members like this vitamin C .
Maltodextrin is not so bad!!!
Posted by Choimin on Jun 17, 2016 | Verified Purchase
Okay I know this may cause a debate here. In my opinion, this is one of the best vitamin C products available with amber glass bottle. Avoid GMO products. The maltodextrin here is non-GMO. It's a type of not-so-good sugar, but in small amount it won't cause much problem unless you're allergic to it. 20% is what? 1g of sugar for every 5g vitamin C here. It's not so much man! A can of coke has 30-40g of sugar and people drink all that in seconds. Orally you can't digest much of vitamin C at one time, so the maltodextrin you're consuming is very little! Please do more research before saying this is not a good product!!! hope this helped.

Although Mountain Lion has been quite successful, it's had its own fair share of problems. That being said, Apple seems to be working on releasing a public update to help patch some of the issues surrounding the launch of its new Mac operating system. The Cupertino California company has seeded another update, OS X 10.8.1 developer beta (build 12B17).
The first 10.8.1 developer beta was released just about a week ago; with the second minor update indicating that the public release should be right around the corner. The update doesnt contain any known issues but Apple does ask developers to focus on specific areas like Active Directory, iCal, and Microsoft Exchange in Mail.
OS X Mountain Lion was released to the public on July 25, 2012 for $20 on the Mac App Store. The adoption rate for the operating system has been quite the success due to various factors such as the list of features and more importantly the effective price point. For those of you who havent jumped ship and have been waiting for bugs and issues to be ironed out, just be patient, the update should be released in the near future.
