The Apple TV has received a major software update, adding several important new features, including iTunes Radio in the U.S., as well as the iTunes Music Store. iTunes Radio works like it does on iOS devices and desktop computers, allowing you to listen to listen either to the pre-existing stations or to those you make yourself.
One of the more appealing aspect of iTunes Radio, at least from the standpoint of the record labels, is that you can buy from iTunes Music Store the songs you stream through iTunes Radio, functioning on the Apple TV as it does on every other iOS device. Previously, you could only use your Apple TV to listen to your previously-purchased music.
There are other important changes with the new software, including AirPlay from iCloud. This allows you to stream your content through an Apple TV without being logged into your iTunes account. Using an iOS device, you can direct the Apple TV to stream your content from your Account. You can now view photos and videos that have been added to your iCloud shared photo stream. You can also now sync your podcasts across your Apple TV and iOS devices. This is especially useful if you subscibe to a lot of video podcasts through iTunes.
To download the update via the Apple TV, go into Settings > Update Software, and consent to the update.
Update: We're getting reports of the Apple TV 6.0 update bricking a number of Apple TV (2012/1080p). If you're not comfortable connecting your Apple TV to iTunes on Windows or Mac and restoring/updating manually, you might want to hold off.
Update 2: Apple TV 6.0 Software is no longer showing up. Looks like it might have been pulled. We'll keep updating as more information becomes available.

Leonardo Boff: "Francis is one of us."
Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger (in German)
December 25, 2016
(Spanish translation by J. Benito Fernández Álvarez / English translation by Rebel Girl)
The Brazilian Leonardo Boff, born in 1938, is the son of Italian immigrants. In 1959, he entered the Franciscan order and studied for five years in Germany. In the 1980s, Boff became the main representative of liberation theology and was in conflict with the Vatican and its supreme guardian of the faith Joseph Ratzinger because of criticizing the official church. After they imposed a prohibition from publishing on him twice, Boff left his order in 1992 and resigned from the priesthood.
Mr. Boff, do you like Christmas carols?
What do you think? (he sings) "Sti-hil-le Nacht, heilige Nacht..." It's sung in every family that celebrates Christmas. Here in Brazil, it's also the tradition like in Germany.
Doesn't this kind of Christmas seem antiquated and commercialized to you?
It's different from one country to the other. Of course, Christmas has become big business. But in light of the above, joy, family fellowship, and for many too the moment of faith, are still alive. And as I've spent Christmas in Germany, it's a very expressive, a marvelous celebration of the heart.
How does faith in a "God of peace" that Christmas speaks of, function in the midst of the discord we are experiencing on all sides?
Most of faith is promise. Ernst Bloch says: "The real Genesis is not at the beginning but at the end, and it begins to start when society and existence are radical." The joy of Christmas is that promise: The earth and people are not condemned forever to continue as we see them now -- with all the wars, the violence, the fundamentalism. We have been promised in faith that at the end all will be good, that despite all the errors, the wrong turns and setbacks, we are going towards a good end. The true meaning of Christmas isn't that "God became man," but that He has come to tell us that "you human beings belong to Me and when death comes, you will come home."
Does Christmas mean that God is coming to pick us up?
Yes. The Incarnation means that something in us now is divine, immortal. The Divine is within us. In Jesus, it showed with greater clarity. But it's in all men. In an evolutionary perspective, Jesus doesn't come from out of this world but he grows from it. Jesus is the manifestation of the divine in evolution, but not the only one. The divine also appears in Buddha, in Mahatma Gandhi and other great religious figures.
That doesn't sound very Catholic.
Don't say that. All Franciscan theology of the Middle Ages viewed Christ as part of creation, not just as the redeemer from guilt and sin who comes from out of the world. Incarnation is redemption, yes. But, first of all, it's a celebration, a deification of creation. And something else that's important in Christmas. God appears in the form of a child. Not as an old man with white hair and a long white beard...
So, not like you?...
Not at all. I look more like Karl Marx. As far as I'm concerned, when we end our lives and have to answer to the divine judge, then we will be facing a child. A child who doesn't condemn anyone. A child who wants to play and be with others. We must re-emphasize this aspect of faith.
Liberation theology in Latin America, of which you are one of the prominent representatives, has come back into favor with Pope Francis. A rehabilitation also for you personally after decades of fighting with Pope John Paul II and his supreme guardian of the faith, Joseph Ratzinger, the future Pope Benedict XVI?
Francis is one of us. He made liberation theology a common good of the Church. And he has expanded it. Those who talk about the poor now have to talk about the earth, because it is also being plundered and profaned. "Hearing the cry of the poor", which means hearing the cry of the animals, the forests, of the collective suffering of creation. The whole earth weeps. Thus says the Pope, referring to the title of one of my books, we must also hear the cry of the poor and the earth today. And both have to be liberated. I myself have worked previously with this expansion of liberation theology. And that is what's fundamentally new in "Laudato Si'" ...
...The Pope's 2015 "eco-encyclical". How much Leonardo Boff is there in Jorge Mario Bergoglio?
The encyclical belongs to the Pope. But many experts were consulted.
Has he read your books?
And more. I was asked for material for "Laudato Si'". I gave him my advice and sent him some of what I had written. And he has used it. Some people have told me that they thought as they read it, "That's Boff!" Incidentally, Francis told me, "Boff, please do not send the documents directly to me."
And why not?
He said, "Otherwise, the Sottosegretari (the Vatican administration staff) will take them, and I won't get them. Rather send things to the Argentine ambassador with whom I have a good relationship and the'll reach my hands safely." You have to understand that the current Vatican ambassador is an old acquaintance of the Pope from his time in Buenos Aires. They've often drunk mate together. One day before the encyclical was published, the Pope had them call me to give me his thanks for my help.
A personal meeting with the Pope is still pending?
He's seeking reconciliation with the main representatives of liberation theology, with Gustavo Gutiérrez, Jon Sobrino... with me too. I told him with respect to Benedict, Joseph Ratzinger, "But the other one is still alive!". He didn't agree. "No", he said, "il Papa sono io" -- "I am the Pope." We stayed silent. Thus one could see his courage and determination.
So why hasn't your visit taken place?
I had an invitation and had even landed in Rome. But just that day, right before the 2015 Synod on the Family, 13 cardinals -- including the German Cardinal Gerhard Müller, prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith -- attempted a revolt against the Pope with a private letter addressed to him and then -- wonder of wonders! -- it appeared in the newspapers. The Pope was furious and said to me, "Boff, I don't have time. I have to promote calm before the Synod. We'll see each other some other time."
But he didn't get the calm either, did he?
The Pope felt the blade of the winds against his own ranks, especially from the United States. This Cardinal Burke, Leo Burke, who now - along with Cardinal Emeritus of Cologne Meisner - has already written a letter, is the Donald Trump of the Catholic Church. (Laughter) But unlike Trump, Burke is now frozen in the Curia. Thank God. These people really believe they should correct the Pope. As if they were above the Pope. So something is unusual, if not unprecedented in church history. One can criticize the Pope, argue with him. I did it quite often. But those cardinals are accusing the Pope of publicly disseminating theological errors and even heresies...in my opinion, it's too much. This is an affront that the Pope himself can't tolerate. The Pope can't be condemned; that's Church doctrine.
Despite your enthusiasm for the Pope -- what's up with the Church reforms that many Catholics had expected from Francis but that aren't really happening so much?
As I see it, the focus of his interest now is not the Church, it's not on the actions of the Church, but the survival of humankind, the future of the earth. Both are in danger, and you have to ask yourself whether Christianity can contribute to overcoming this important crisis in humanity that is under the threat of perishing.
Francis is worrying about the environment and meanwhile, the Church is still up against a wall?
I think for him there's a hierarchy of problems. When the earth is destroyed, there are also other problems. But as far as the internal affairs of the Church, you have to wait! Just the other day, Cardinal Walter Kasper, a confidant of the Pope, said there will soon be great surprises.
What's he expecting?
Who knows? Maybe the diaconate for women. Or the possibility that married priests can be reintegrated into the ministry. That has been a formal petition to the Pope from the Brazilian bishops, especially his friend, the retired Brazilian Curia Cardinal Claudio Hummes. I've heard that the Pope wants to answer that request, for a first experimental phase in Brazil. This country which has 140 million Catholics should have at least 100,000 priests. But there are just 18,000 -- a disaster from the institutional point of view. It's not surprising that the faithful are going en masse to the evangelicals and pentecostals who are filling the personnel void. Now, if thousands of married priests were to take up their office again, it would be a first step in improving the situation -- and at the same time an impulse for the Catholic Church to solve the bondage of compulsory celibacy.
If the Pope were to decide in this sense, would you also assume priestly functions again as a former Franciscan priest?
Personally, I don't need a decision of this sort. It wouldn't change anything of what I'm doing nowadays, what I've always done -- I baptize, I bury, and when I come to a community without a priest, then I also celebrate Mass together with the people.
A very German question: Are you allowed to?
Up to now, no bishop that I know of has ever opposed it or even prohibited it. The bishops are also glad and they tell me, "The people have the right to the Eucharist. Keep on doing it calmly!" My theological teacher, who died unfortunately some days ago, Cardinal Paulo Evaristo Arns, for example, was very open. He went so far as to ask married priests whom he saw in the church pews during the celebration to approach the altar to celebrate the Eucharist with them. He often did it and said it -- "You are still a priest and continue to be one."

Bumgarner's grand night leads Giants to victory
SAN FRANCISCO -- Madison Bumgarner did it all Friday night at AT&T Park.
While it wasn't surprising to see the lefty go six innings in a winning effort, Bumgarner had the ballpark rocking after his fourth-inning grand slam, which propelled the Giants to a 6-5 win over the visiting Rockies.View Full Game Coverage
SAN FRANCISCO -- Madison Bumgarner did it all Friday night at AT&T Park.
While it wasn't surprising to see the lefty go six innings in a winning effort, Bumgarner had the ballpark rocking after his fourth-inning grand slam, which propelled the Giants to a 6-5 win over the visiting Rockies.View Full Game Coverage
"That's quite a night," manager Bruce Bochy said with a smile.
Bumgarner has developed a reputation as a hard-hitting pitcher throughout his career, but he completely outdid himself against Rockies southpaw Jorge De La Rosa.
In his first at-bat, Bumgarner brought fans out of their seats as he lifted one high in the air to left field, sending Carlos Gonzalez to the warning track for a long sacrifice fly that scored Brandon Crawford from third base. The next inning, Bumgarner hit a no-doubt shot to the left-field bleachers on the first pitch he saw, clearing the loaded bases and giving himself a nice 6-3 lead.
"I'm just thankful to run into something and score some runs for us," Bumgarner said. "It's a good ballclub they got, all the talent they got. They've really got some good hitters in there and good pitching."
It marked the first grand slam by a Giants pitcher since Shawn Estes did the deed on May 24, 2000. With his five-RBI night, Bumgarner has driven in more runs than San Francisco regulars Pablo Sandoval (four) and Hunter Pence (three) have all season.
Upon learning of his production compared to the two key Giants sluggers, Bumgarner laughed.
"I hadn't really thought about it," Bumgarner said. "I'm sure it won't last long."
Still, he left something to be desired on the mound. Struggling with location, Bumgarner was knocked around early by the Rockies, who sent six men to the plate in the first inning while scoring the game's first run. Gonzalez added another big blow in the third when he recorded a no-doubt two-run home run into McCovey Cove, his fifth career long ball against Bumgarner, the most by any player.
"He wasn't quite as sharp [on the mound]," Bochy said, "but he found a way to win that game and he did it with the bat tonight. Good for him."
Bumgarner's counterpart, De La Rosa, didn't even make it out of the fifth inning thanks to Bumgarner's contributions with the bat. De La Rosa was charged with six earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out six.
"Command got away from him, it looked like," Colorado skipper Walt Weiss said. "He got some balls up and out over the plate."
The Rockies also tacked on another run in the sixth with a pair of doubles by Jordan Pacheco and Charlie Culberson, but Bumgarner gave himself enough support to earn his second win of the year. He allowed four earned runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out seven, saying he felt strong in the last two innings of his outing.
But all the buzz in the home clubhouse after the game was about his grand slam, the first by a Major League pitcher since Travis Wood hit one for the Chicago Cubs on May 30 of last year.
"Feels great," Bumgarner said. "Couldn't have happened at a better time. Not really having it out there, anything extra you can do to win the game. I've got to be happy with it."
With his well-known batting-practice power displays, Bumgarner said he's "definitely more of a five o'clock hitter than a seven." And as far as his preparation for batting, it doesn't sound like he has many secrets.
"All this hitting stuff is over my head," said Bumgarner, who raised his career batting average to .145. "I'm just trying to see the little white thing out there and hit it."
With two run-producing plate appearances to start the game, Bumgarner jokingly approached Bochy in the dugout to lobby for a third at-bat in the bottom of the sixth, but Ehire Adrianza entered the game as a pinch-hitter to end the southpaw's evening.
Bumgarner's blast gave the Giants a three-run lead, but the Rockies wouldn't go away. They scored one again in the eighth to bring the score to 6-5, setting up closer Sergio Romo with an intense ninth-inning save situation.
A day after battling through stomach pains, Romo said he felt fine. He looked filthy, too, striking out three straight batters looking to end the game, including a final punchout of pinch-hitting Colorado star shortstop Troy Tulowitzki.
"Got the job done," Romo said after picking up his third save of the year. "That's what's up."
AT&T Park has become something of a house of horrors for the Rockies in recent years. With Friday night's victory, the Giants have now won 14 of the past 16 home meetings against their National League West foe.

DETER-IT LESS LETHAL ANIMAL CONTROL PROJECTILES 2000 countHome > Projectiles > Deter-it Animal Deterrent
Price: $380.00
DETER-IT LESS LETHAL ANIMAL CONTROL PROJECTILES 2000 count.
Deter-it is a highly effective kinetic energy projectile that is in use by a large number of local, state, and federal agencies throughout North America for animal control.
Deter-it is in use in several US National Parks. It is also being used as the main platform for black bear control in one of the larger Provinces in Canada.
Deter-it is far less expensive than other less lethal projectiles, such as rubber shotgun slugs, cracker rounds, rubber buckshot, or pepperball-type projectiles.
According to our government agency customers, the paintball gun Deter-it is fired from presents a softer public image than firearms.
Agencies also enjoy Deter-it because it can be used in much closer proximity to people during quiet hours because of the paintball gun's softer noise signature.
Deter-it has proven effective on coyotes, wolves, bear, and humans, chasing them from areas where they are not wanted, as well as deterring other undesired behavior. Deter-it is not intended for recreational use.
Deter-it Projectiles are gelatin projectiles containing a proprietary dense, non-toxic, environmentally friendly liquid.
Deter-it is designed to deliver approximately 17 ft/lbs of kinetic energy to a suspect or animal and compel deterrence of undesired behavior and compliance without penetration or other serious injury.
Deter-it Projectiles are a fraction of the cost of the less-lethal projectiles currently available on the market.
Deter-it Projectiles can be used with any standard .68 caliber paintball gun. Projectiles are accurate on targets up to 100 feet.
Deter-it Projectiles have an operating range of 30 to 130 degrees Fahrenheit and have a shelf life in excess of 7 years. Deter-it is biodegradable.
Deter-it Projectiles if it should break on impact with a solid object, the liquid is non-staining and will easily wash away.
Deter-it Projectiles are proudly made in the USA.
Deter-it Projectiles are for Military, Law Enforcement, or Professional Institutional use and should never be aimed at a persons face, eyes, groin, throat, or spine.

The Options:
[Chaotic Shadowspirit Diamond]: I detailed the math on the Chaotic Meta gem in a post a couple of years ago. The theory behind the Chaotic meta gem hasn't changed in those two years. While the 54 crit rating isn't that attractive, the 3% increase to crit damage is easily still the best Meta gem buff. The question now is if it's worth the increased cost imposed by the new meta gem requirement.
Intellect Gems ([Bracing] , [Ember]): The Int gems are just the opposite of the Chaotic meta. Picking up an additional 54 Int is very attractive but the meta buffs are situational at best.
I've seen a couple of people advocating the Bracing meta because they are uncertain about threat in Cataclysm. Personally I have a hard time buying that argument. A 2% threat reduction shouldn't be much of a DPS increase. In most cases, if threat is really an issue then either you or your tank is probably doing something wrong.
The Ember meta gem would have been a much more attractive option a couple of months ago, but mana no longer seems to be a huge issue for Moonkin. If you're not running Oom, then an additional 2% mana is useless.
There are other meta gems that provide Int, but I believe them to be more PvP oriented since they provide bonuses that reduce stuns, silences and such.
[Fleet Shadowspirit Diamond]: I'm a little hesitant to list this gem at all but it provides a unique opportunity. If you've read my blog for a while then you probably remember threat I am a big fan of the Minor Run Speed Increase bonus. I like the additional utility it provides, and I've traditionally picked it up as a boot enchant because the other enchant options are relatively weak. However, in Cataclysm things seem to be changing a little bit. Minor Run Speed Increases don't stack, so it doesn't make sense to have both the gem and the boot enchant. Therefore, if you decide to use the Fleet meta, you can choose a different boot enchant. Most likely the 50 hit rating enchant. These means the Fleeting Shadowspirit Diamond provides you with 50 hit rating and 19 mastery mating if you assume that the Minor Run Speed increase will be picked up in either the boot slot or with the meta gem.
Other Options: There are other options that provide Crit rating and what I think are PvP bonuses. None of these are worth considering in my opinion.
The Math:
Hamlet recently posted an updated version of the level 85 WrathCalcs, and I'm using that evaluate the different options. It works a lot like the old El Jefe spreadsheet which will make some of you happy, and I used it to evaluate the Chaotic Meta and the Bracing Meta.
The gear I chose is all ilevel 359 epic gear. I didn't always make the optimal choice and favored pieces that were easier to obtain when possible. The gear set I used is very plausible at least in the early raiding of this tier. I did make the optimal gem, enchant, and reforging choices, and I used this talent spec.
The Cost: To use the Chaotic Meta gem I have to make some gem choices that would not be optimal without the meta requirement. When compared to the Int gems, I lose 154 Int as a result and gain 100 Spirit/Hit, 54 Crit rating, and the 3% increase to Crit damage. The cost of using Int gem is the exact opposite.
The Results: When I plugged these numbers into the spread sheet these are the numbers I got:
|Chaotic Meta:
|Int Meta:
|Fleet Meta:
As you can see the Chaotic Meta was still the clear winner even with the suboptimal gemming requirement.
The Gemming Strategy:
How we socket our Meta socket may not be changing but it does require a change in how we socket our other gem sockets. It's a lot more confusing then how we've done it in the past, but I will try and outline it as simply as possible.
Simple Version: This version of my strategy makes an assumption that should be true most of the time, but probably not always. That assumption is that you have more Yellow and Blue sockets then you have Red and Prismatic sockets. This assumption isn't true for our T10 gear, but it looks to be true for T11, and think it will be the norm through out Cataclysm. I hope this is the case because it makes the gemming strategy a lot easier to explain.
Red/Prismatic Socket: [Brilliant Inferno Ruby]
Yellow Socket: Socket a [Lightning Dream Emerald] until you have no yellow sockets left or until you have one more green gem socketed then you have red gems socketed.
Blue Sockets: If the number of green gems you have socketed is less than or equal to the number of Red gems socketed, then socket your blue sockets with [Sparkling Ocean Sapphire] until you have one more green gem socketed then you have red gems socketed. At this point your meta requirement is met.
Other Sockets: Now you need to balance the rest of your sockets to make sure the meta requirement is still met. Here are the steps you need to follow:
- For every pair of yellow sockets you have left socket one with a [Reckless Ember Topaz] and a [Lightning Dream Emerald] until zero or just one yellow socket left.
- If you have one yellow socket left and at least one blue socket left, then socket the yellow with a [Reckless Ember Topaz] and one blue socket with a [Sparkling Ocean Sapphire]. If you have one yellow socket left and no blue sockets left socket the yellow socket with a [Lightning Dream Emerald].
- Socket the remaining blue sockets with [Purified Demonseye].
Advanced Version: Hamlet made a much more mathy explanation of the system on his Elitist Jerks blog which you can find here. This post and another one of his EJ posts led me to creating another explanation of the strategy using math expressions. Some of you might find it easier to understand.
- Let R be minimum(number of red+prismatic sockets , blue+yellow sockets - 1 ).
- Put R red gems into red/prismatic sockets.
- If there are still red/prismatic sockets left over, put purple in them.
- Let Y be minimum(R+1, yellow sockets)
- Put Y green gems into yellow sockets.
- Put R-Y+1 blue gems into blue sockets -- Meta requirement now satisfied.
- For each remaining pair of blue/yellow sockets, socket one blue and one orange gem.
- If yellow are left, fill with half green and half orange, favoring Green if odd number. If blue are left, fill with purple.
The Chaotic Meta gem is still the best meta gem choice by far. The DPS benefits of the other meta gem options just don't measure up even when you take the new Chaotic Meta gem requirement into account.
However, the new Chaotic Meta gem requirement does make our gemming strategy much more complicated then it has been in the past. The strategies I've outlined above will make sure your gear is gemmed optimally while still meeting the meta requirement. That said, you should be extra vigilant when making gear changes to make sure your gemming is still optimized.

With a company history that stretches 103 years, the Suzuki Motor Corporation has the type of global reach that few of its competitors can lay claim to. Even from its somewhat humble foray into the automotive game back in 1955 with the release of the Suzulight, innovativeness has been a driving force for the Suzuki line of motorized vehicles.
By the onset of the 21st Century, Suzuki cars were selling respectfully in the U.S. with annual numbers that extended into the six-figure realm. Even with the overall drop in auto sales following on the heels of the gasoline hikes and economic recession of 2007, Suzuki's affordable line of vehicles allowed it to endure through rough times.
Japanese-built and Italian-designed, the Suzuki SX4 Sport was a joint effort with Fiat that made its official debut at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show. Originally intended exclusively for the European marketplace, the Suzuki compact cross-over hatchback name SX4 stands for sports (S) over (X) all seasons (4).
Suzuki is best known for its long and highly-respected line of motorcycles instead of cars. And while the worldwide motorcycle market is certainly nothing to scoff at, American car buyers have traditionally been reluctant to elevate any of the Suzuki's to the status of "must have's." Still, for an automotive maker looking to find its niche with four-wheels, the compact Suzuki SX4 Sport is a worthy entry for its highly competitive class.
Built entirely in Japan, the first generation Suzuki SX4 Sports featured a two-liter, four-cylinder DOHC engine matched with a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic transmission that could be specially tuned. With a top track speed of 120 mph, the SX4 delivers 143 hp and 136 lb-ft of torque.
In 2006 and 2007, most car critics hailed the Suzuki SX4 Sport as a welcomed alternative to many of the more expensive hybrid vehicles of the day, paying particular attention to its classic flowing European body styling. Created by famed Italian automotive designer, Giorgetto Giugiaro, Suzuki sought to fuse the elegance of most passenger cars with the expected vitality of sport utility vehicles.
All styles and trims of the compact 2012 Suzuki SX4 Sport cars come saddled with the same powertrain: a two-liter, four-cylinder engine capable of delivering 150 hp and 140 lb-ft of torque. While some of these trims are equipped with a six-speed manual transmission, others come with a continuously variable transmission (CVT), a feature that does cause the hp to drop ever-so-slightly to 148.
Available in two body styles, sedan and hatchback, the 2012 Suzuki SX4 Sport front-wheel drive sedan comes in four trim levels: base, LE, LE Popular Package, and SE. With a base that comes with very few features, consumers need to upgrade to the LEs in order to enjoy better options, such as air-conditioning, keyless entry, four-speaker sound system with CD player, and cruise control, with Bluetooth reserved for the SE trim. The Suzuki hatchback comes as either a base or all-wheel-drive crossover model, with the standard hatchback being nearly identical to the base sedan while the crossover mirrors the sedan's SE trim.
Criticized for its lack of a telescoping steering column and an excessively tall driver seat height, the 2012 Suzuki SX4s do even out some with a healthy amount of cargo space. With the hatchback boasting 54 cubic feet in interior space and the sedan with a 15-cubic-foot trunk, both options offer passengers the welcomed feature of split-folding rear seats.
The North American Suzuki SX4 Sport arrived on U.S. shores in time for 2007, initially introduced at the New York Auto Show that same year. In 2008, the five-door hatchback marketed as the Crossover trim included what the engineers dubbed "intelligent" all-wheel-drive functions, keyless entry, power mirrors, power windows, power doors, and a CD player complete with MP3 capability.
The 2009 Suzuki SX4 Sport sedans arrived with additional driver perks to hopefully pique any prospective buyer's interest. These included split-folding rear seat functionality for the sedan trims and a standard navigation system available on the upper levels complete with Bluetooth, weather forecaster, and gas station locator.
For the following year, the Suzuki team added the SX4 Sportback model to the lineup, giving it a tiny horsepower boost from 143 to a nice even 150. Improving the fuel economy was also part of the deal for 2010, with engineers swapping out the previous four-speed automatic and five-speed manual transmission for a six-speed manual and CVT system instead. A lowered sport-tuned suspension, rear end spoiler, a redesigned front fascia, some additional auxiliary jacks, and a removable roof rack were also part and parcel for the 2010 Suzuki SX4 Sport.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, any facility which constitutes a new major source, or any modification which constitutes a major modification under nonattainment review or Prevention of Significant Deterioration review as amended by the FCAA Amendments of 1990, and regulations promulgated thereunder, shall be subject to the requirements of &# 116.110 of this title (relating to Applicability) rather than this section.
(c) No person shall circumvent by artificial limitations the requirements of § 116.110 of this title.
(d) The emissions from the facility shall comply with all rules and regulations of the TNRCC and with the intent of the TCAA, including protection of health and property of the public and all emissions control equipment shall be maintained in good condition and operated properly during operation of the facility.

116.212 Public Notification and Comment Procedures
Facilities constructed under the Standard exemption List that consist of permanently or temporarily located concrete plants that accomplish wet batching, dry batching, or central mixing, or specialty wet batch, concrete, mortar, grout mixing, or pre-cast concrete products, shall conduct public notice of the proposed construction unless exempted from public notice requirements by the Texas Clean Air Act (TCAA), § 382.058(b). In all cases, public notice shall include the information specified in paragraph (1)(A) and (B) of this section.
(1) Public notification procedures.
(A) Publication in public notices section of a newspaper.

(x) name, address, and phone number of the regional TNRCC office to be contacted for further information.
(B) Publication elsewhere in the newspaper. Another notice with a size of at least 96.8 square centimeters (15 square inches) and whose shortest dimension is at least 7.6 centimeters (three inches) shall be published in a prominent location elsewhere in the same issues of the newspaper and shall contain the information specified in paragraph (1)(A)(i)-(iv) of this section and note that additional information is contained in the notice published pursuant to paragraph (1)(A) of this section in the public notice section of the same issue.
(2) Comment procedures.
(A) Comment period. Interested persons may submit written comments to the executive director, including requests for public hearings pursuant to the TCAA, § 382.056, on the executive director's preliminary decision to issue or not to issue the standard exemption. All such comments and hearing requests must be received in writing within 15 days of the last publication date of the notices specified in paragraph (1)(A) and (B) of this section. Any requests for a contested case hearing shall include a brief, but specific, written statement of interest and basis for challenging the application. Such statement shall convey in plain language the requestor's location relative to the proposed facility, why the requestor believes he or she will be affected by emissions from the proposed facility, what the requestor's concerns are about the emissions from the proposed facility, and how the requestor believes emissions from the facility will affect him or her if permitted. This statement shall not be used as the basis for denial of party status in any contested case hearing. Party status determinations will be made based on evidence developed at the initial prehearing conferences.
(B) Consideration of comments. All written comments received by the executive director during the period specified in subparagraph (A) of this paragraph shall be considered in determining whether to issue or not to issue the standard exemption. The executive director shall make record of all comments received together with the agency analysis of such comments available for public inspection during normal business hours at the Austin office of the TNRCC and appropriate regional office.
116.213 Registration of Emissions
An applicant may certify and register the maximum emission rates from the facilities qualifying for a standard exemption in order to establish enforceable allowable emission rates which are below those allowed in § 116.211 of this title (relating to Standard exemption List). All representations with regard to construction plans, operating procedures, and maximum emission rates in any specially certified registration for a standard exemption become conditions upon which the exempt facility shall be constructed and operated. It shall be unlawful for any person to vary from such representation if the change will cause a change in the method of control of emissions, the character of the emissions, or will result in an increase in the discharge of the various emissions, unless the registration is first revised. The special certification must include documentation of the basis of emission estimates and a written statement by the registrant certifying that the maximum emission rates listed on the registration reflect the reasonably anticipated maximums for operation of the facility. The specially certified registration shall be maintained on-site and be provided immediately upon request by representatives of the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission or any air pollution control agency having jurisdiction. Copies of the certified registration shall be included in applications for permits for any subsequent projects that are subject to review under the undesignated heads in Subchapter B concerning prevention of significant deterioration review and nonattainment review.

BETHESDA, Maryland (Reuters) - Eli Lilly and Co's antidepressant Cymbalta should be approved to help ease chronic pain in certain patients, a U.S. medical advisory panel said on Thursday.
A U.S. Food and Drug Administration panel of outside advisers, in a series of votes, backed the drug's wider use but split over whether it effectively treated lower-back pain and osteoarthritis. The panelists voted 8-5 to approve its use for back pain. But by a 4-9 vote they found there was not enough data to support its use to treat osteoarthritis.
"I think it will be a very useful drug for a significant number of patients," the panel's chairman Jeffrey Kirsch, head of anesthesiology at Oregon Health & Science University, said.
The drugmaker is seeking U.S. approval to more widely market Cymbalta, which is already cleared to treat depression, anxiety, diabetes-related pain and fibromyalgia.
If the drugmaker wins approval, it could see a temporary boost in sales ahead of generic competition against the antidepressant and several other key drugs in the next few years. Cymbalta loses its U.S. patent protection in mid-2013.
Analysts expect the anti-depressant to see $3.4 billion in worldwide sales in 2010 and $3.7 billion in 2011, according to consensus forecast data by Thomson Reuters, although it was unclear if potential approval was factored into the figures.
If the FDA does approve the pain use, Credit Suisse analysts said they expect it "to be somewhat limited and the incremental sales benefit to be modest," according to their research note after the meeting.
While doctors are generally free to use approved medications for non-approved uses, so called "off-label use," the FDA's stamp of approval would allow Lilly to legally promote the new pain use.
The FDA will weigh its advisory panel's recommendation before making its final approval decision. Lilly has said the deadline for the FDA to act has already passed, meaning a decision could come any time.
Lilly's shares were down 1.5 percent, or 53 cents, to $34.25 in late afternoon trade, roughly in line with the overall market. Earlier on Thursday, a U.S. judge temporarily blocked a generic version of the drugmaker's attention deficit disorder drug Strattera [nN16218165].
FDA officials said they were concerned about the impact of widening approval for a drug that has known serious side effects such as liver damage. Other risks with Cymbalta, also known as duloxetine and first approved in 2004, include suicidal thoughts and behaviors, nausea and drowsiness.
At the meeting, FDA data showed Cymbalta is already heavily used off-label for various conditions such as musculoskeletal conditions, headaches and nerve pain. Sales of the drug have grown three-fold to 14.7 million prescriptions in 2009, up from 5 million in 2005.
Eli Lilly told FDA's panelists that Cymbalta offered another option for the more than 50 million Americans who suffer from chronic pain. No new safety problems have been found, and other painkillers such as opioids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs also have risks such as abuse and heart problems.
"The efficacy of ... current therapies is very limited," said Daniel Clauw, a University of Michigan professor who spoke on behalf of the drugmaker.
Panelists agreed to a certain extent and said Cymbalta would help give certain pain patients additional options.
Chronic, low-back pain in particular "doesn't have many very effective treatments," panel member Maria Suarez-Almazor, chief of rheumatology at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center said.
But panelists also said there was not enough data to support a stronger 120 milligram dose over the current 60 milligram version.
The drugmaker initially sought wider U.S. approval for pain in November 2008, but withdrew its bid to submit more data.

St. Paul's reopens, but priest resigns
LONDON (AP) - The senior St. Paul's Cathedral priest who
welcomed anti-capitalist demonstrators to camp outside the London
landmark has resigned, saying he feared moves to evict the
protesters could end in violence.
Other senior clergy and politicians urged the campers to leave
peacefully, as the cathedral announced it would reopen to the
public Friday after a weeklong closure triggered by health and
sanitation concerns.
The resignation of Canon Chancellor Giles Fraser revealed
divisions among cathedral clergy over how to handle the protesters.
Bishop of London Richard Chartres promised to take up the
demonstrators' cause if they left.

TreeRings needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 260 designs submitted by 74 freelance designers.
Tree Ring Epics is looking for a simple but elegant design to be used on our website, books, media, and memorabilia. The centerpiece of our website is an interactive timeline people can create to tell their life story.
We would like a simple but elegant design that integrates our name [Tree Ring Epics], the rings of a tree [when you cut down a tree, you can count the rings of the trunk to see how old it is], and a simple timeline.
Our website will allow people to create a timeline of their life, and then add media (videos, photo albums, written text) to the various events in their life, so that future generations of their family will be able to know them.
We like earth tones (green and brown would be great) but are open to your creative interpretation.
We are looking to establish a relationship for follow-on work.
- The words "Tree Ring Epics"- Concentric rings (not necessarily evenly spaced) to represent tree rings
- No clipart please- Nothing too childish or cartoon-ish

The Music of John Barry
Saturday 10 November 7.30pm
The Bridgewater Hall
Lower Mosley Street
Manchester, M2 3WS
Nicholas Dodd conductor
Andrew Collins presenter
Manchester Camerata
John Barry created some of the most memorable and recognisable film scores of the 20th century, such as Midnight Cowboy, Out of Africa, Dances with Wolves, Zulu and of course much of the music from the James Bond series; his versatility and originality were peerless. His death in 2011 deprived cinema of a true musical great. This concert pays tribute to his life and music with a carefully selected programme, conducted by Nicholas Dodd, who collaborated closely with the composer on his later films. Nicholas Dodd is regarded as one of the leading conductors and orchestrators of Hollywood film music and is a noted expert on, and performer of John Barry's music. In fact, every James Bond movie from the last 10 years bears his signature.

Sammy Adams -- the rapper behind the hit songs "Driving Me Crazy" and "I Hate College" -- collapsed on stage last weekend during a concert in New Jersey ... and TMZ has obtained scary footage of the medical emergency.
Adams was performing at Six Flags Great Adventure last Saturday for a Hurricane Sandy benefit concert when he suddenly became discombobulated and fell to the ground, shaking.
Stage hands rushed to his aid -- and Adams was subsequently taken to an ambulance.
It's unclear exactly what happened, but soon after the incident, Adams tweeted that he was okay and just felt under the weather.
Thanks for all the support guys. Been under the weather and traveling extra to get this music out! Appreciate the love. #lifers #— Sammy Adams (@SammyAdams) March 23, 2013
We reached out to Adams for comment -- so far, no word back. According to his website, Adams is scheduled to perform again next week.

Snoop Dogg, Warren G attend service for Nate Dogg
LONG BEACH, Calif. (AP) - Rappers Snoop Dogg, Warren G and The Game joined family, friends and about 1,000 fans of Nate Dogg to remember the hip-hop singer, who died this month of complications from multiple strokes.
The family of Nate Dogg - whose real name was Nathaniel Dwayne Hale - decided that the ceremony at the Queen Mary Dome would not be open to the public as they previously wanted, but they made 1,000 tickets and shuttles available to fans.
The dome in Hale's hometown of Long Beach is adjacent to the historic ship the Queen Mary and was the former home of Howard Hughes' airplane folly, the Spruce Goose.
Organizers had sought a more central location for the funeral, but none proved large enough for the numbers of expected mourners. A private dinner was planned after the service.
Hale started out singing in church choirs, then formed a group with Snoop Dogg and Warren G while the trio was in high school in Long Beach.
His almost monotone vocal stylings anchored some of rap's most seminal songs and helped define the sound of West Coast hip-hop on tracks usually produced by Dr. Dre and performed by rappers like Snoop Dogg, Tha Dogg Pound and Warren G. He remained sought after as a singer more than a decade after his original success, supplying vocals to more recent tracks by 50 Cent and Ludacris.
Hale dropped out of high school, was dishonorably discharged from the Marines and dabbled in the drug trade before finding success as Nate Dogg on Dr. Dre's classic 1992 album "The Chronic."
Late in life, he was plagued by legal and health problems, including at least two strokes in 2008.

Will A Lesbian Be Forced To Testify Against Her Wife In A Murder Trial?
A Kentucky murder trial is raising big questions regarding the legal rights of same-sex spouses, namely whether one spouse can be forced to testify against another in a state where same-sex marriage isn't recognized.
A Kentucky woman, Bobbie Joe Clary, has been charged with the murder of 64-year-old George Murphy in 2011. She claims his death was self-defense.
Prosecutors claim that Bobbie Joe confessed the killing to her wife, Geneva Case. They also claim Case witnessed her wife cleaning blood from Murphy's vehicle and abandoning it.
Clary and Case entered a civil union in Vermont in 2004; that civil union has retroactively become a legal marriage due to Vermont's legalization of same-sex marriage.
As such, Case should theoretically have the legal right not to testify against her spouse, but prosecutors claim that since their marriage isn't recognized by the state of Kentucky, Case has a legal obligation to testify against her wife.
Prosecutors say Geneva Case heard her spouse admit to killing a man two years ago and saw her clean blood out of the man's van and abandon it in Southern Indiana. Now, they argue, Case must testify about those facts, even though Kentucky law exempts spouses from being compelled to testify against each other.
"That ceremony is not a 'marriage' that is valid and recognized under Kentucky law," prosecutors said in a court motion, noting that marriage between members of the same sex is prohibited in Kentucky. "Geneva Case and the defendant cannot prove the existence of a marriage under Kentucky law."
But attorneys for Clary say they are legally married and denying them the same marital rights others have would be a violation of the Constitution.
The case has become the first legal test in the state over forcing same-sex partners to testify against each other — raising the broader issue of whether the state recognizes marriages or civil unions that are legal elsewhere. The case could have ramifications for issues such as divorces and division of property after death.
"It is going to have a huge impact," Angela Elleman, an attorney for Clary, said in an interview, noting that couples are leaving the state to marry and coming back with legal issues that are going to have to be resolved.
"It's going to come up again and again and again," she said.
Any legal experts want to chime in? Does this couple have the legal protection of spousal privilege or does Kentucky's failure to recognize their marriage legally deny them their rights?

I don't think it's right that the wife should testify against her spouse. However, the law is probably on Kentucky's side. Every state can refuse to recognize a married couple as married if they married outside of that state. That's true for straight marriages as well as same-sex marriages. It's a shame.

PN532 breakout board issues resolved with RaspberryPi
October 9th, 2013
I'm connecting a clone breakout board powering the pn532 from 3.3v (might be the case with other methods too!) using the following schematic
(credit DanyO for his Py532lib tutorial ).
I'm experiencing the following problems:
- board disappearing when scanning the i2c bus
- tag disappeared errors when reading a tag (libnfc 1.7.0)
- error during tag reading
- using debug level = 3 as suggested on the libnfc forums, the situation does not improve a lot
I'm not an electronics engineer, but it happened to me sometimes that devices are not correctly powered, so when I faced this problem, two piece of info came into my mind:
- I read more then once in the RPi forums that the 3.3v line might be dirty due to high integration in the board
- PN532 breakout board can also work with 5v power supply so it might become picky when powered via 3.3v
My proposed solution is to put a 10nF decoupling capacitor in parallel with the 3.3v power supply, as near as possible to the PN532 chip.
After I added the capacitor I was able to read a mifare classic 1024b three times in a row without errors (was not even able to start that before the mod).
I'm still experiencing some problems from time to time, so it might be the case to put another 100nF capacitor in parallel and, in extreme cases, add a 2.2uF-4.7uF electrolitic (add, not switch, from my googling around), but don't go too high (disclaimer: if your Pi reboots or the 3.3v line blows, don't blame me!) because that may introduce high current load at startup and some parasite effects that might nullify the decoupling benefits.

Spiderman helps the bat
March 3rd, 2012
In Summer, we have a lot of mosquitoes, mainly because they've been proliferating in our area, but also because we are near to a stream of water and it's much easier for them to survive.
We've been using insecticide products to keep our house surroundings safe, but it's a loosing battle because mosquitoes are very hard to eradicate and because you'd have to make all the neighbours using those products.
For the moment we are using mosquitoes net for the inside of the house, but the outside at disk an agonizing pain every time.
That's why we started thinking about bats: they can eat a lot of insects every night and are a bio-friendly solution.
All the stories about drinking your blood or hanging on your hair are just rumors, so they are perfectly safe and they almost don't make dirt.
Italian bat strains are very small and very friendly, so you just need to put a wooden bat house on a wall or on a tree, that has good visiblity from the sky and you're done!
Today I wanted to install a bat house on the walls of my house.
The guidelines say it has to be a safe place for our local bats to settle there: at least 2.5m from the ground.
Unfortunately the house also have to remain as far as possible from metallic objects, and I didn't have a proper ladder to go up 2.5m+ and below the roof.
The only solution was to go up the little piece of roof over the first floor and use a ladder someway to go upper.
After all it was too dangerous (a ladder on a roof?), so I actually had to ask the Spiderman to hang on the wall, go up a couple of meters, drill a hole and fix the bat house where all the requirements where met:
- Easy to clean and maintain
- Safe for the bats
- Easy to watch
- Far from metallic gutters and from the ground
And there is the first bat house of the neighbourhoods 🙂
Hope someone finds it useful!
