Janyk claims maiden win in Aspen downhill
By Simon Evans
ASPEN, Colorado (Reuters) - Canada's Britt Janyk claimed her first World Cup victory with a downhill win in poor conditions on Saturday.
Four Austrian skiers chose not to race after their team mate Alexandra Meissnitzer suffered a heavy crash, injuring her left knee.
In soft snow and bad visibility, Janyk powered down Ruthie's Run in one minute 14.17 seconds, according to provisional results.
Austria's overall World Cup leader Marlies Schild was second 0.42 seconds behind while her compatriot Renate Goetschl was third.
The downhill, the first for women at Aspen since 1988, was rescheduled from Friday after heavy snow in the Colorado resort and race staff worked overnight to get the piste ready for competition.
American Lindsey Vonn, who skied as Lindsey Kildow prior to her marriage in September, went into the race as clear favorite but had to settle for fourth place.
Vonn took to the slope after the race had been delayed for over 20 minutes following former world champion Meissnitzer's heavy crash.
Meissnitzer injured her left knee after tumbling on a flat section of the course when she appeared to hit a rut. Continued...

Huskies Fall Just Short in Loss to AIC
September 20, 2013
Northeastern kicked off the scoring with a penalty kick from hooker Chris Laughlin, 3-0 NU. AIC would strike next, hitting a kick to even the score at 3-3. They would score a try off an errant pass from a Northeastern lineout to put AIC up 8-3. Undeterred, the Huskies would march down the field on two consecutive drives and Laughlin would slot one through both times to put NU up 9-8. AIC would score twice more before the half to make the score 22-9 going into halftime.
After the half, AIC scored once more to go up 29-9 before the Huskies decided to mount a comeback. David Murphy kicked off the try scoring for Northeastern by taking a pass from fly half Shane Tyksinski and barreling into the try zone. Laughlin slotted an incredibly difficult kick from the sideline to make the score 29-16 AIC. Soon after, AIC took a penalty kick to make the score 32-16. NU struck back with a penalty kick from Laughlin to make the score 29-19. Next, a NU quick tap and pass to Jared Veruto saw the big man demolish two would be tacklers on his way into the try zone. Kick good, 2632 AIC. Just as it seemed the Maddog would march back down the field and win the game with a try, an errant pass from the ruck led to a turnover and quick try for AIC as time expired.
A tough loss to be sure, but there was much to be learned from Saturday's game. The Maddog next travels to UMass Amherst this Saturday to take on the Minutemen in their second league game of the year.
If you can make the trip, come watch the Huskies this Saturday in Amherst!

I have a 10' iron driveway swing gate that is currently manual. I would like to install a power gate. My gate is new, and has ball bearing hinges and requires little resistance to open/close. I can push it with my pinky. It is about 200 lbs.
I want a power swing gate operator, but do not have the room behind/beside the gate for the type that has a tower and motor with arm. I need the type that has the motor built into the arm. I have researched several options online and am even more confused as there are good and bad reviews on them all. I will be installing it myself, and have a pretty good mechanical inclination. Power won't be a problem; there is a source nearby.
My price range is up to $800. I have a few criteria that I would like.
-Soft open & close
-Ability to add sensors (input/output) later
-Keyed manual release
-Battery operated/backup
-Reliable (obviously)
I really am looking for first-hand experience, weather it is what worked for you, or what has not. Even better is someone in the trade that can give me advice.
Thank you in advance!!!

I apologize if this is the wrong sub forum to approach this subject, but since I cannot seem to post new threads in the old "general IT discussion forum" I was just wondering if there are any plans to create a new one?
I was a frequent user/reader of that particular sub forum on the old forum and I hope there are plans to create something similar on this forum.
As mentioned, if this is the wrong sub forum to adress this issue I apologize.
I have been going through the FAQ forum without finding any mentions of the old general IT discussion sub forum so I just wanted to check if anyone here knows about any plans to re-create a similar place.
The old forums are locked and for archive viewing purposes only. I know we kicked around the idea when the forum first started and we decided not to. I will bring it up to the war council and we shall see what is decided.
Thanks for your reply.
I can see reasons for both having, and not having such a sub-forum so I understand the decision of locking the old forum.
However, many of the users on this particular site have very comprehensive knowledge on matters not directly backtrack/security related which indeed could be a great resource as well. Also, without that sub-forum, certain users might try to start completely unrelated threads about IT/HW where they would not belong.
But the intention of keeping a BackTrack forum limited to this linux distro and security issues is by all means understandable
When I talked with muts about this (when we first transitioned) I felt lucky getting an "expert topics" and video section listed. The idea was to not cater to "general IT" considering that there are tons of other sites better devoted to such. Also the focus should be on BT which seems appropriate to me. I think one of the biggest problems it that we have to limit the amount of "trash" that also tends to gather over time. Sure there is a ton of great resources in the archives but sometimes you really have to dig for it.
Good points indeed, come to think of it - such a sub forum could possibly attract members with no particular interest in IT security but who only needed a place for "support" and to ask questions not related to the main purpose of this site.
I understand the decision to drop that sub forum completely, but I will miss it a lot though

Women at Home in a World at War
- Article by: Susan Grayzel
- Theme: Civilians
- Published: 29 Jan 2014
Women of the empire in wartime
Book published in 1916 in London exploring the role that women played in World War One.View images from this item (11)
Women and domestic labour
This was a total war because it involved all sectors of society, including men, women and children. Some of the roles that women played were novel, many were not. Yet even traditional feminine occupations and pursuits could become part of a modern war effort. From the earliest days of the conflict, domestic tasks like sewing and knitting took on a military cast as girls and women created handmade comforts for soldiers. In addition to the sacrifices asked of women who surrendered their loved ones, as the war continued states asked women to 'sacrifice' (a word often invoked) many other things. The Allied blockade of the Central Powers obliged women to accept rationing, and therefore to do without specific foodstuffs. Austrian, German, Russian and eventually French and British women all learned how to make do with less and, even more painfully, to face limits on what they could provide for their families as well as themselves. One of the more telling emblems of how the war transformed women's basic sense of self can be seen in appeals that German women give even their long hair to the war effort.
Booklet 'Women's effort in war time'
Booklet, printed in 1914, with practical instructions on how to knit and sew clothing at home as the war impacted upon economic exchanges between countries.View images from this item (4)
Poster and bag for the collection of women's hair

Women and waged labour
Women sustained their nations in many other ways. Most working-class women already worked outside the home for wages as well as undertaking domestic duties inside the home. Female factory workers continued to labour alongside men; they sustained the production of textiles (including uniforms) but many also shifted into metal working in factories, creating war material such as munitions. Factory work and waged labour were not new for many of these women. However, the substantial shift of female workers from things like domestic service into industrial work, and an expansion of the range of tasks within factories and other workspaces, was unprecedented. The widely circulated images of women taking on industrial, war-related labour, such as the Italian women featured here, helped reinforce the message that women were making vital contributions to the war effort in place of their mobilised and absent men. Indeed such women became a key economic force so that the strike by French women, pictured here, caused a great deal of consternation for the government which was simultaneously grappling with mutinies and fearful of grievances (e.g. about wages and working conditions but also about the war itself). Even more significantly, a strike by women in the early months of 1917 in Petrograd helped spark the Russian Revolution.
When war came home
Some experiences at home were comparable to those of men. For instance, due to innovations in wartime technology, some women (and children) found themselves facing new means of waging war, such as air power and chemical weapons, as the chilling photograph of the mother and child in improvised gas masks somewhere in the 'bombed territory' near the Western Front reveals. Air raids on densely populated cities like Paris and London killed and injured women literally in their homes. Often the public was outraged by such attacks precisely because they affected a feminised civilian population far from traditional front lines.

Women and the military
Perhaps as remarkably, some women took on exceptional roles that directly aided the military. While military nursing was also not new, its ranks greatly expanded across many nations. In addition, the war saw a wider participation of female doctors. More direct aid to armies came in the form of newly established women's auxiliaries such as the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps. In Russia, women even joined combat forces, as the Russian Women's Battalions of Death took to the field in the summer of 1917.
Why does the sacrifice of women get singled out in wartime media?Even as women made visible contributions to the war and garnered praise for this, wartime media often signalled that what women did was somehow extraordinary and quite separate from their male counterparts. Despite debates at fairly high levels of government in both Britain and Germany, for instance, about compulsory labour for women, every task that a woman performed was in some sense voluntary in the way that the conscripted male labour of soldiering was not.
Why this focus on the exceptional? After all, many of women's most celebrated roles balanced the demands of traditional femininity – mothering, nursing, domestic labour – with those required for modern war. Since women lacked political rights, some women, including several prominent feminists who had worked for women's suffrage for years before the war, saw in it an opportunity to 'prove ourselves worthy of citizenship.' Yet it would be a mistake to look to the war alone as having irrevocably changed women's lives. Many wartime opportunities for women proved temporary. While singled out because of their gender, women were not a monolithic group. Given the range of their experiences and circumstances, there was not one woman's war, just as there could never be one man's war.

I've been trying to get a clear answer to that one for the last couple of years, but every time I ask Panasonic or Infocus about the high cost of replacement bulbs I get some mumbo-jumbo about the high tolerances or exotic materials that go inside—or more commonly no response at all.
It's been bugging me lately because my beloved Panasonic AE-900U is getting dim. (And has a wicked fan rattle, too, but that's probably both fixable and the fault of Porter's disgusting shedding, not a failure endemic to the model.) I priced out new bulbs and they're all about $300-400, depending on the source. What is a real pisser is that I could buy a used AE-900U on eBay for around the same price, making it clear that the only thing of real value inside a projector is a fresh, new bulb.
It's got to be a racket, right? I understand that those lamps need to throw out a ton of lumens, but even if they're filled with strange metals and inert gasses, hundreds of dollars for a bulb seems nutso to me. Then again, I'd feel a lot better about paying for a new bulb if I were wrong, so if you've got some science to drop on me I'd love to hear it.

Very comfortable, beautiful view, easy to do business with, can't wait to visit again! Unexpectedly had to bring my adult son, who is confined to a power wheelchair, along with me on a leadership retreat for 5 girls on my It Works! Team. This is one of THE MOST wheelchair accessible places I've ever stayed with Cody. I had to bring a hoyer lift and had no trouble at all getting him in and out of bed...tile floors, plenty of space to move around. Also different areas to enjoy, so he didn't have to be confined to a room full of women. The deck was wonderful for dinner, hanging out, and coffee at sunrise. Beautiful scenic drive, about 35 minutes, I think, to Rock City Gardens. We also really enjoyed a really nice, upscale restaurant, Canyon Grill, just 9 minutes down the road, also very accessible. Great team dinner there. Don't be put off by the prices. Get the whole catfish and a couple salads, or some other entree to share. Bring your own wine and corkscrew! That was fun, as my team was from different regions of the country, and I was able to bring some local wine and share a taste of my home with them. Very good value, just a wonderful experience. Thanks Dave and Carole:)
I cannot speak more highly of our stay at Dave and Carol's beautiful chalet, Above The Clouds! The minute we arrived, we immediately felt welcomed by Dave and Carol who live next door to the property. Dave is multi-talented. He makes incredible reproductions of fossils in his workshop. He is also a recording artist, with an amazing voice, a musician, and a gifted songwriter. Dave and Carol were incredibly warm, gracious, and accommodating. While they were inviting and gracious, they also know visitors need to enjoy time alone, encouraging us to enjoy our privacy at the chalet. The chalet is beautiful and complete with everything you will need. We enjoyed the gas grill and cooking our meals in the well appointed kitchen. We especially enjoyed the large deck with it's spectacular views. The hot tub on the deck was a bonus and a great place to relax at night after a long hike. I've never seen so many stars. The location of the chalet is perfect, only minutes from Cloudland Canyon State Park. Also nearby is the Cloudland Canyon Grill, with incredible food. Make sure to make a reservation as everyone knows it's incredible. I was accompanied by my mom and my daughter and on the way back to Nashville, we talked nonstop about Dave and Carol and our wonderful experience. Thank you Dave and Carol! We will be back! Your friends, Bill, Donna, Ava, and Vino
Amazing views. Very peaceful.
We had a wonderful time during our visit. The views were magnificent and the owners were very nice. It exceeded our expectations in every area.
We enjoyed our weekend! Beauty home with everything you need! Gorgeous view. You will not be disappointed in renting this one!
I love this home. The location , the views are perfect.
Romantic views , very convenient to nearby tourist spots Perfect for pets as well
Dave is very accommodating
I just so love this place!
We spent Christmas 2016 here with our 4 kids and it was fantastic! We had plenty of room. The grandparents even came up for 2 nights and stayed. The Bollings greeted us when we arrive and came by again 1/2 way through our stay and asked if we needed anything. We talked and share some stories and Dave even showed us these realistic tusk he makes. They are the best people to book with and the home is amazing. The view was far more better than pictures show. Can't wait to come back again. God Bless Them.

Feminism | Posted by Robin S on 07/24/2009
Joss Whedon's Equality Now Speech
Joss Whedon is the creator of such shows as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly and Dollhouse. He's also awesome. I'm not too familiar with his work, but I've always admired him as a feminist icon, as I know that he publically identifies as a feminist and tries to make a point of having strong female characters in his writing. His female characters are not strong because he's pandering to female audiences; they're strong because, like some men, some women can absolutely kick ass, yet you so rarely see female characters who kick ass and are still genuine.
Whedon made a speech at for Equality Now in 2006 after receiving an award from them. While his speech is a little over two years old now, it's definitely still relevant. Watch and see why.
Let's look at the kind of female characters we see on TV now. Are there more strong female characters now than there were in 2006? If there are, I definitely don't see them. If anything has changed, it's that there's less strong female characters. Most women I've seen on TV nowadays seem to be written to be superficial, nagging or weak–the personification of stereotypes. And I can guarantee you that the writers for any shows who do have strong female characters are still being asked why they write women like that.
I have to hand it to Joss. As long as strong female characters are still seen as strange, we need people like him to make those characters exist.

I love Joss Whedon. Buffy is probably one of my favorite shows. A must-see for feminists interested in pop culture. It still has it's anti-feminist moments (like every tv show), but it's all about strong women who can take care of themselves!
I write about Buffy (and vampires) a lot, because I love the show. Here is my take on this same video (the video just adds to the reasons why I love Joss): http://youngfeministadventures.blogspot.com/2009/06/joss-strong-women.html
Karen @ at 1:46 pm, July 24th, 2009
I like Joss Whedon, but I'm not really feeling Dollhouse. You know, with most of the female characters being repeatedly raped while brainwashed and such. And as the story develops, it seems more clear that Echo was blackmailed into becoming an active, too, so all the doll raping is even more against her consent. Fun!
Can't wait till she wakes up and takes them all down.

For Release Friday, August 23, 2013
Speaking last month at Knox College Galesburg, Ill., President Obama began to try to refocus the American public on the economy. His attention to the need for competition in a global economy was welcome. Global trade is more than a national issue; it's vital, as well, for healthy metro regions to be prepared to compete internationally.
The slow rebound from the recession and the even slower return to low unemployment levels continue to plague the country. Obama attributed the loss of jobs to new technology and, he said, "Global competition sent jobs overseas." He outlined what's needed to compete and said, "The countries that are passive in the face of the global economy will lose the competition for good jobs and high living standards."
But central to the national debate on fixing the economy is the role of government. Where does the country set the rheostat between a totally free market economy and an activist role for the government in ensuring economic success? And this question is even more difficult as we face global competition for jobs with countries like China, which have industrial policies.
The Obama administration realizes that a large trade deficit and the flow of jobs overseas require an assertive policy. But is the public in agreement?
For years the American public has not seen global trade as in our interest – although polls show an uptick this year. (See Pew Research Center poll in 2010 here, and see a Gallup poll from February 2013 here.) One example: Since mid-2007, Presidents George W. Bush and Obama have had no fast- track trade authority, letting them negotiate international agreements needing only an up or down vote in Congress.

This cute little guy is knit by hand and has handy clips on the legs so you can really get up close and personal. The best way to give a facehugger as a present is to thrust it at the recipient and run away screaming.

I've seen a bunch of threads and posts on crinoline, but I wasn't exactly sure if it that term pertained to the material or the strappy part of it. (for those who have no clue what I'm talking about ^^;;, it's those white strips under Mana's Le Ciel dress that is also used in EGL wear that I'm talking about). Anyway, has anyone happened to make this? Any tips or anything?

Ryan Nelsen believes Adel Taarabt is key to Queen Park Rangers' chances of staying in the Premier League and has urged the club not to sell the Morocco international in the January transfer window, writes Simon Johnson.
Taarabt has impressed this season, despite Rangers still looking for their first win and sitting at the bottom of the table with only six points from 15 games.
Manchester United and Arsenal are both believed to be interested in signing the 23-year-old in January and feel they have a chance of securing his signature. QPR's new boss Harry Redknapp has been told he may have to sell players to raise funds in order to bring in some new faces of his own.
But Nelsen feels QPR will will be making a big mistake if they allow Taarabt to go. When asked if he hoped the club ignore bids for the midfielder, he said: "Of course. I don't think any player who can contribute to getting us up the table and staying in this League will be going anywhere."
But the New Zealand international defender has also warned Taarabt that he has a lot of improving to do if he is to make the most of his potential.
He said: "Adel's ability is there for all to see. When he gets in the right spots, he can create stuff.
"All Adel has to do is just be consistent and keep throwing out really good seven or eight-out-of-10 performances every week and not worry about any of the speculation.
"You can't produce a 7-8/10 once every five games. If you want to be rated a great player you have to be consistent, doing it week after week, season after season."

"The release of atomic energy has not created a new problem. It has merely made more urgent the necessity of solving an existing one."
"The most essential factor is persistence - the determination never to allow your energy or enthusiasm to be dampened by the discouragement that must inevitably come."
"The first step - especially for young people with energy and drive and talent, but not money - the first step to controlling your world is to control your culture. To model and demonstrate the kind of world you demand to live in. To write the books. Make the music. Shoot the films. Paint the art."
"It's a waste of energy to be angry with a man who behaves badly, just as it is to be angry with a car that won't go"
"People spend too much time finding other people to blame, too much energy finding excuses for not being what they are capable of being, and not enough energy putting themselves on the line, growing out of the past, and getting on with their lives."
"Goals provide the energy source that powers our lives. One of the best ways we can get the most from the energy we have is to focus it. That is what goals can do for us; concentrate our energy."

Morocco floods hit oil plant
Morocco's largest oil refinery has been closed down following flash floods which have killed at least 37 people.
The Samir plant in the town of Mohammedia - which processes up to 90% of the country's crude oil exports - was severely damaged after flash floods triggered a major blaze.
More than 30 people died when the Bengueribi river burst its banks on Sunday, destroying houses and washing people away in a small village in the Settat region.
Morocco has seen unusually heavy rain in the past 10 days after a four-year drought. The first casualties were reported on Monday.
A man and four of his five children were crushed near Fez when their house collapsed.
Two other people are reported to have died when a river burst its banks in the town of Ben Ahmed, in the Settat region.
About 10 people are reported missing.
The Moroccan Government has promised emergency funding for those left homeless by the floods and compensation for relatives of the dead.
It is not known how many people have lost their homes.
In December last year, flash floods triggered by heavy rain killed 15 people and left hundreds homeless in the Settat and Essaouria regions.
This prompted strong press criticism of the authorities for not taking enough preventative measures.

The bill necessary for Japan to join the treaty for handling cross-border child custody disputes has cleared the Diet.
Japan is now assured of ratifying the pact by the end of the fiscal year next March after all the domestic procedures are completed.
The 1980 Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction sets out the rules and procedures for the prompt return of children under 16, taken or retained by one parent following the failure of an international marriage, to the country of their habitual residence if requested by the other parent.
The bill was submitted to the Diet in March 2012, but was shelved when the Lower House was dissolved for the December general election. It was resubmitted and approved by the Lower House earlier this month and by the Upper House on Wednesday.
A central authority will be set up in the Foreign Ministry to take charge of locating children who have been taken away and encouraging parents to settle disputes through consultation.
If consultations fail, family courts in Tokyo and Osaka will issue rulings.
The newly enacted law will, however, allow a parent to refuse to return a child if abuse or domestic violence is feared, a provision campaigners call vital, but which some say risks being exploited.
The law will allow for parents who separated before its enactment to apply to have a child returned, but contains a provision stating that the application can be refused if a child has been resident in the country for a year or more and is happily settled.
Detractors say the lumbering pace of Japan's justice system, where cases can take months or even years to be heard, will reduce the chances that a foreign parent will make a successful application to have their child returned.
Unlike Western nations, Japan does not recognize joint custody and courts almost always order that children from broken marriages live with their mothers.

You won't hear too much about THIS ONE on the national news BECAUSE the shooter was a radical FAR LEFT LIB nutjob & NOT a Right Wing "Gun Nut" nutjob.
That's the reason why he couldn't shoot.
No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms. -- Thomas Jefferson
***...Where was 'SECURITY' and what the hell was he/they doing and thinking in this time?!
As well where was the police response?!
The answer to those two questions will depend on several of things.
First, how far into the six minutes and ten seconds did each of those two entities (guard & police) become aware (notification or cognizance) of the incident.
Second, did the guard have any specific duties re location during the meeting and what was his response time after notification/cognizance.
Three, what was the police response time after notification and did they employ an immediate entry active shooter response.
"I do what I do." Cpl 'coach' Bowden, "Southern Comfort".
On his web page were all sorts of his favorite links (all radical left sites) & one of them was MEDIA MATTERS which is funded by George Soros.
So I don't think too big of a deal is going to be made over this incident.
No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms. -- Thomas Jefferson
Thanks. I got the ammo/vest trip to the car from the thread on the guard.
"I do what I do." Cpl 'coach' Bowden, "Southern Comfort".
he was a former police detective.....
The security person can be heard asking "Is that a real gun" early in.
As to him _leaving_ to then go to his _vehicle_ (!) to get a vest and more ammo...I'd not heard that before just now, and that makes this even THAT MUCH MORE ridiculous!
Oh that's a real gun so hold on a minute, keep him busy and talking, while I go run to my car (huh?!) to get the vest that I should have been wearing period as per my hired position, and to get the ammunition to make my gun work that I otherwise should be carrying on my person and have more of in my _office_ as per my hired position...Never mind that there is a real and imminent threat ongoing right now here.
What the heck kind of policys and procedures do they have and who wrote/advised them on as much?!
Also for having been as reported by another here to be a 'retired police', what the heck kind of agency did he work with prior and retire from?!
Seriously can this case possibly get any more ridiculous and flat out stupid?!

That's as bad as Barney Fife having only one bullet and having to ask Andy if he can load up with a full cylinder! I remember once when on a manhunt, and Barney's chest just swelled up and his face beamed when Andy finally let him load his revolver to capacity.
I know when I lived in Kansas City area the "School Resource" officers were full time active duty police or deputies who had that assignment to a school. They wore full and complete uniform because they were regular street cops who were just assigned as school resource officers. No going to car to get vest and ammo in the middle of a shootout.

"The gun is the great equalizer... For it is the gun, that allows the meek to repel the monsters; Whom are bigger, stronger and without conscience, prey on those who without one, would surely perish."
The media is portraying him as a hero.... I suppose only because the perp couldn't shoot
I used to wonder how just a few German soldiers could convince thousands of Jews to stand in line waiting to be executed. Watching this video of the gentlemen just waiting for their turn after the first shot was fired helps explain how the Germans did it. It still does not explain to me why those in line did not take action.
People throw that hero label around a lot now days. It means nothing anymore.The media is portraying him as a hero....
As well thoughts of golly gee look he seems like a nice guy, ala Santa Claus or Kenny Rogers, so he did the best he could under the circumstances and besides the BG is the villain here.
Meanwhile professionals most everywhere will be looking at this as being an abject failure, that only ended in one person left bleeding (the threat) simply because he didn't actively choose to harm anyone but himself.
In my book they call that 'dumb luck', not a blessing from God as Security Director Mike Jones has explained it to the press. : \

The city either has to admit that the security guard was inept leaving themselves open to even more questions or they can call him a hero and hope no one notices what went wrong.
