It may be one of the most crucial issues involved in planning events: getting people in the door. With new technology offering so many options for communicating information to a target audience—email invitations, online registration systems, social media—invitation strategy now requires much more than just choosing a font or design.
But unlike some things rendered obsolete by new technology (pay phones), the printed invitation remains a viable tool for some events and audiences. The challenge is deciding when and how to use traditional and electronic tools to communicate information best and ultimately lure the people you want to attract. Here's a look at how some hosts are using different invitation strategies.
Audi used two different techniques to attract attendees to the South Florida premieres of the A7 in May and the A6 in June: printed invitations mailed to a purchased list of 1,500 households with income above $250,000 and email invitations sent to a separate database of more than 69,000 people, including 7,000 existing Audi customers.
Both versions directed invitees to an online R.S.V.P. system developed by Siinc Agency and created by Radiant Event Technology. The online form gave respondents the ability to schedule a test-drive of the vehicle at the dealership of their choice. "We want people to have a good time at these events, but our goal ultimately is to drive people to the dealerships," said Audi of America regional marketing manager Maggie Mohiuddin. "We want to make sure we are innovators, and this system is one of the ways we can be innovative."
Respondents received reminder emails about the events and also their specific test-drive appointments, and the online response data was also transmitted to the dealerships so they could follow up with potential new buyers. Ultimately, about 900 people attended the launches, with 300 taking test-drives.
For the Playing for Good poker event that benefits the Geffen Playhouse and Determined to Succeed, a foundation co-founded by actor Hank Azaria, organizers have moved from a combination of printed and electronic invites for the first event in 2009 to an all-electronic approach for the past two years. Working with Marc Friedland Couture Communications, event producer Regina Miller said they went to all-digital because they are targeting a "younger crowd that wants something clean and clear that they can forward to others."
She said sponsors first balked at the thought of not having their logos on a tangible invitation, but now they feel otherwise. "It's really enticing to sponsors to say we can do these links to your company on the electronic invitation. And you can share the event with a wide audience, as opposed to the hard invite that we may only be able to send to 1,000 because of cost," Miller said. In fact, the event only printed 100 invitations in 2009 and gave them to 10 top donors to distribute to their friends and fellow poker players.
More than 50,000 people receive the electronic save-the-date, which includes a number to call for more information. The interactive HTML invitation, with links to sponsors, the venue, auction items, and even a video about the event, goes to a much smaller email list of about 3,000—people organizers have identified as seriously interested in paying $1,000 or more for one of the 160 seats.
For the International Emmy Awards held in New York each November, organizers start with a save-the-date email in July to more than 10,000 people, followed by a printed invitation to 4,000 in September. "We feel like we need to convey the weight of the event in paper form, to make our guests feel important and for selling tables at $15,000," said Eva Obadia, communications director for the International Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
Although organizers are trying to encourage attendees to respond via email, they still include a response card because "we don't want to put prices on the invitation itself, so we feel we need a separate piece." To nudge them along, the response card does not include a return envelope. But it's a slow transition: In 2010 about two dozen people, mostly international guests, still opted to mail it back in their own envelopes.
Patrón Spirits Company is using an unconventional approach to generate buzz for Patrón XO Cafe, a tequila-based coffee liqueur. As part of its effort to support up-and-coming musicians, the company created after-parties during South by Southwest in Austin and the Pitchfork Music Festival
in Chicago.
Printed invitations were sent to about 200 members of the press, musicians, and other industry influencers in town for the respective festivals; an additional 25 went out via email to people for whom Patrón didn't have a physical address. But the invitation deliberately left off one important piece of information: the location of the party.
Instead, attendees were instructed to stop by a mobile coffee truck parked on a city street 15 minutes before the start of the event. There they could exchange their invitation for two wristbands and a cup of coffee. The sleeve on the coffee cup provided the location of the party. "We did it sort of speakeasy-style to create an underground feel. People loved it. It was scavenger hunt-esque," said Patrón national event manager Diane Green.

Who owns the land? Only the land knows. We mortals are passersby, and our lives are but a brief moment in the great span of time and space. We are born, we live out our lives, and most of us do the best we can with it, but the wind is forever, and the rivers flow forever to the sea, and all the seasons of the weathers will come and go after we are gone. But the Earth endures, the Earth is eternal" - Earl Hamner

In response to the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) repeated release of personal information of farmers and ranchers, the American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) and the National Pork Producers Council have jointly filed a federal lawsuit and temporary restraining order to halt the infractions.
Earlier this year, EPA released the personal information of tens of thousands of farmers and ranchers in 29 states after receiving multiple Freedom of Information requests. The information released to the animal rights groups included names, addresses, personal contact information and in some cases, the names of deceased relatives.
The lawsuit was filed before the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota, according to the AFBF.
The court order seeks to stall disclosures of farmers' and ranchers' personal information until a court can clarify EPA's obligations to keep personal information about citizens private.
"We are sticking up for the tens of thousands of farmers and ranchers whose personal information would end up in the public domain," AFBF President Bob Stallman said. "This lawsuit is about the government's unjustified intrusion into citizen's private lives."

According to AFBF, the majority of farmers and ranchers, as well as their families, don't just work on the farm – they live there, too. By turning over farmers' names and addresses for public consumption, EPA is inviting intrusion into the privacy of farmers and their families on a nationwide scale.
"We support transparency and frequently advocate for increased government transparency," Stallman said. "But publicly sharing spreadsheet upon spreadsheet of tens of thousands of peoples' names, addresses and other personal information is not transparency in the workings of government – it is an invasion of the personal privacy of citizens.
"EPA is in effect holding up a loudspeaker and broadcasting where private citizens live and where their children play," he says.
In the wrong hands, personal location information could disrupt farm activity and lead to farm equipment theft or even sabotage or criminal mischief, especially for those farms that store fertilizer and chemicals or have large numbers of animals on the farm.
"In the scope of everything happening nationally with the exposure of citizens' private information, it's time to say enough is enough," Stallman said. "Farm Bureau is not only standing up for farmers in this case, but we are also standing up for all citizens who shouldn't have their personal information publicly disseminated by their government."

The BlueSpray Wi-Fi Irrigation Controller expands on standard sprinkler systems allowing you to control and schedule watering times from virtually any Internet accessible computer, smartphone or tablet. The system can be easily configured to fit your specific needs and easily replaces your existing sprinkler control box. Communication with the sprinkler control box requires an Internet connection and no special software or downloadable applications are required. The user interface is friendly, intuitive, and incredibly easy to use. The absence of special software or downloadable applications allows you to control and monitor the irrigation controller from your smart device or computer anywhere in the world by activating the port forwarding function of your home's Internet router and registering and logging into your BlueSpray website account. Directly accessing the BlueSpray website and adjusting your irrigation settings eliminates the hassles related to weak Wi-Fi connections, monthly cloud service and application fees, and unsecure wireless home network connections.
The irrigation controller groups sprinkler heads into zones that can be expanded from a minimum of one zone to a maximum of 8 zones. Zones are virtually placed near a group of sprinklers and can be viewed from an overhead image of your home from the BlueSpray website. These zones can be named so you don't have to remember which number goes to which zone for easy identification, especially if you forget where sprinklers are located or if a specific area around your home needs more watering than other parts.
Programming and Scheduling
Along with individualized names, each zone can be flexibly controlled to prevent unnecessary watering by adjusting the watering schedule, watering duration, and seasonal climate sensor settings. Zones can also be programmed to run on even or odd days, every "X" number of days, or on specific days you want the zones to activate and water your lawn. What makes this irrigation controller unique compared to other conventional irrigation controllers are the seasonal climate adjustment settings that allow you to adjust your watering needs according to the season and climate. You can schedule as many seasonal settings for each zone as you want and how much water will be used based on the zone settings. For example, if you have a zone set for 10 minutes, 100% means the system will water for 10 minutes, but 50% means the system will water for 5 minutes for the particular season or months you set the seasonal settings to.
In addition to flexible scheduling the irrigation controller can delay or stop watering based on the weather forecast, whether it's going to rain or if it is too cold or too windy. The delayed watering settings allow you to skip watering for a maximum of 60 days and will stop all scheduled watering times until the delay period expires. The irrigation controller can be configured to evaluate the forecast before watering begins from a minimum of one hour to 24 hours maximum. Besides weather, the controller will also evaluate temperature and wind speed. If at any time the weather, temperature, or wind speed does not match your watering schedule and settings the irrigation control box will cancel all watering until the conditions are appropriate.
Garage Door Feature
The BlueSpray Irrigation Controller does not only give you complete control of your irrigation system, but it will also give you control of opening and closing your garage door. Connecting your garage door sensor to the irrigation controller is done similarly to connecting your irrigation zones. For example, you'll be able to program BlueSpray to close or open your garage door automatically so that you don't wake up one morning and see your garage was opened all night. When you are vacation, you will not need to check as the door will remain closed.
Application Programming Interface (API)
BlueSpray has an industry standard Application Programming Interface (API) that can be integrated into any home automation software giving you control of everything inside the home.

Known as "kyusu", this style of teapot is commonly used in Japan to brew green tea. The unusual pattern of twisted, cinnabar lines on the sand colored pot is created during the firing process due to small twigs and branches that are placed in the kiln with the clay. As a result, each pattern is unique.
Made in Tokoname, which is famous for its high-fired stoneware kyusu, this teapot is lightweight yet sturdy and makes a wonderful addition to any teapot collection. The interior spout of the teapot is lined with a mesh strainer to prevent the leaves from being poured into the teacup.
Capacity: 12 oz.

GATLINBURG, Tenn. - Winter weather conditions are delaying assessment of a major landslide that took out a section of a highway in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
After up to 8 inches of rain, a 200-foot-long stretch of U.S. 441 slide down a slope Wednesday morning on the North Carolina side of the 500,000-acre.
The National Park Service said the initial assessment shows about 90,000 cubic yards of soil slid about the length of a football field and is piled 45-50 feet deep.
There were no injuries in the landslide.
As park officials watched on Wednesday, debris continued to fall.
The National Weather Service predicted snow for the mountains Thursday and Thursday night.

Homefront has definitely been a title long in development, and we've gotten quite a bit of information on the game's single-player component over the past two years. The game's premise is simple, but engaging. The year is 2027, and after a meteoric rise to power, the Greater Korean Republic has taken over the Asian peninsula and has now invaded the US. Unfortunately, the US is falling, and the resistance has to resort to guerilla-style warfare in order to thwart the ever-present threat of the Korean troops.
The single-player portion of the game is certainly going to be intriguing, but at a recent event, we were able to get a first look at the game's multiplayer mode, which looks like it will be just as engrossing at the single-player mode.
The context for the multiplayer is within the scope of the game's narrative, and sees your self-made character fighting the good fight for either the American or Korean sides. Because the focus in Homefront is squarely on the single-player experience, representatives from Kaos studios told us that they wanted the multiplayer aspect of the game to reflect the total chaos that will be portrayed in the story. The game will feature multiplayer modes that will allow up to thirty-two players at a time engage in combat, which should definitely ramp up the action considerably.
Although the setting and scope should certainly give Homefront a unique take on the online shooting experience, the real innovation here comes from the game's unique load-out and currency system. During each multiplayer event, you will start the game with a set number of "Battle Points," which are a performance-based currency system. The amount you start off with won't be much though, and you'll have to earn more by completing objectives, achieving kills, and making captures. As you accrue battle points, you will be able to unlock special weapons and vehicles.
However, the game wants to emphasize strategy, so the vehicles and weapons to which you will have access with your battle points will be selected via load-out at the beginning of each round. Each load-out gives you access to a variety of different weapons, drones, and vehicles once you accrue enough battle points. Some of the items, such as a rocket launcher with two rockets, only require a nominal amount of battle points, and can be spawned rather quickly after only a few kills or completed objectives. However, vehicles and drones will take a little more effort to unlock. This forces the player to form a "spend or save" strategy where they can either continue to unlock small bonuses with continuous battle points, or save up through several rounds to get a huge base-destroying tank.
After learning about some of the broader aspects of the multiplayer mode, we were finally able to go hands-on with a pre-alpha build of a territory-stealing mode. We were able to check out two maps, tentatively titled "farm" and "cul-de-sac." Both of these maps are set in a suburban landscape, complete with single-family homes, churches, and car junkyards. Of course, since this is a warzone, everything is in a particularly poor state, and bodies of unfortunate would-be soldiers hang from trees in the middle of the street. Although we were told that the look of the game was far from complete, the visual styling is mightily impressive thus far.
The game controls as you would expect from any first-person dual-stick shooter, and it was very easy to pick up and play. We were able to try out all of the game's default guns, which included a middle-of-the-road assault rifle, a sniper rifle, and my favorite, a heavy assault gun known simply as "Scar". Although the weapons list wasn't exhaustive, there was enough variety in the different load-outs to help you stay within a certain strategic parameter.
But as I mentioned before, the load-outs are much more than just your primary weapon, and give you access to different unlockables with the battle points system. I was able to check out several of the battle points unlockables, including areal drones and a giant tank. Although there is a bit of a learning curve with some of the vehicles (the drones in particular can be tough to maneuver at first), I had no problem slipping into these special vehicles after about a half-hour of playtime.
I also tried out different strategies in regards to the battle points, and found both spending them immediately on small arms as well as saving them for huge vehicles to be effective ways to enhance the gameplay and overtake enemies in my designated territories. Although the immediate success of both of these strategies may have been due to the fact I was playing with thirty other first-timers, I'm sure after playing for a while savvy players will develop specific approaches using the battle points system that will yield interesting results.
Although we were only able to spend a limited amount of time with the multiplayer portion of the game, we were promised that more information about additional modes, maps, and weapons would be forthcoming when we get closer to Homefront's release next year. But for now, Homefront multiplayer is looking like an interesting way to augment what is sure to be a memorable single-player experience.

Television broadcast pioneer Bel Lange set the bar high
Bel Lange was a household fixture from the mid 1950s through the early 1980s. Those fortunate enough to have a television in those early years tuned in to then-Stockton-based KOVR each Saturday to watch his 30-minute show, "The Outdoorsman."
Most people thought he was just another reporter for the station when he was, in fact, the general manager.
Bel had a great love of the out-of-doors — fishing, hunting, camping. He loved it all, and on "The Outdoorsman," he covered all the subjects.
Anglers gleaned information, as where fish could be found biting the best. He revealed the best baits and methods of getting into the bite. Hunters regularly received information as to season dates and what conditions they might find. Campers and anybody wanting to go outdoors would find his tips and hints to making that a successful trip and regularly tuned in to build their knowledge bank.
In today's video world, a reporter usually is accompanied in the field by a camera person. Bel Lange shot his own video with a 16-mm movie camera, common in many households.
After leaving KOVR, Lange opened a store specializing in what he knew best — the outdoors — and it had the same name as his TV show, "The Outdoorsman."
Lange also began a travel agency, booking exotic fishing trips to places that were most known as a dot on a map.
Bel Lange left us April 1. He was 88. Lange now is pursuing all his favorite fish and game on the other side, happily knowing he imparted a great deal of knowledge to the outdoors-oriented public before he left.
It's baby time in the hills, but keep your distance
It's about the time that mother deer are having babies. Bear cubs were born in the winter, and with warming temperatures, the cubs are wandering alongside mom.
Baby wildlife this time of year teems everywhere.
It's OK to look at the cute little babies, to ooh and ah. But unless you want to potentially sign their death warrant, do no more than look from a distance. Stay away from them.
Just because, for example, a fawn nestled into a secluded area does not under any circumstances mean baby has been abandoned. The doe will commonly tuck away the little one so she can adequately feed. When she's ready, she'll return for her little one.
If you approach the fawn, thinking it so cute, and pet it, regardless how innocuous that may seem, when the doe returns and senses your scent on her baby, she almost certainly will abandon the little one.
And, do not attempt to "rescue" the baby. It's illegal in California to keep wildlife as a pet. If you see a baby you think might be abandoned, contact a California Fish and Wildlife warden. If the baby truly is abandoned, it will be taken to a rehabilitation center.
Interestingly, 400-500 fawns on the average are placed in rehabilitation centers throughout the state each year. Most are turned in by well-meaning persons who think the fawn was abandoned when, in fact, they aren't.
Young animals are a thrill to watch. They frolic and follow mom closely.
So watch them, from a distance, but do not attempt to physically contact them.
Current fishing
The salmon opener proved good. When the strong north winds don't blow, there has been outstanding fishing and opportunities just about everywhere.
Ocean salmon: The Bay Area fleet found flat-water conditions and good fishing around Deep Reef. Traditionally, salmon at the start of the season aren't big smokers. Most of those caught were in the 10-pound class, but a 27-pounder was netted. Not every boat limited, but every boat had an average of one fish per rod — or better.
Fish were scattered up and down the coast in the Bodega Bay region. Water conditions and color were perfect, and the ocean is full of krill, a small shrimp salmon love to eat.
Those going out of Noyo Harbor in Fort Bragg found the salmon bite tough. The morning bite was just about non-existent but picked up a little in the afternoon.
Local stripers: Stripers are everywhere. Boaters are scoring. Those slinging bait from shore are scoring from Clarksburg upriver to the confluence of the Sacramento-Feather rivers. Cut bait and blood and pile worms have been attracting bites. Take plenty of bait, however. There are a ton of shakers that love to peck at your bait until it's gone. Most of the keepers are small, maybe 20-24 inches.
The lower American River is beginning to see more stripers coming in. You can anchor and soak cut bait or drift a jumbo minnow to get bit.
Lake Oroville: Want to catch 100 bass in a day? You can here, and the slot size limit was dropped this year. Some bass are in full spawn mode while others are still staging to spawn, so you have a lot of bass to try for from two feet deep down to 20. You can expect spots and largemouth to 2½ and an occasional four-pounder falling prey to what's being thrown at them. Senkos, worms and jigs are getting well bit. Some noisy top-water gear is getting hit, and so are cranks. The action is great all around the lake.
Lake Berryessa: The closest point for those in the Placer County region is Markley Cove, just on the other side of the dam, reached by going through the little burg of Winters. Launch and drop your gear at the mouth of the cove. Stay in the top 20 feet of water and you're going to get bit — rainbows, kokanee and king salmon. They're all holding shallow, as large plankton blooms are appearing. You'll find the action better if you let out at least 100 feet of line behind the boat. Bass are in the coves in spawning mode, and the action has been outstanding.
Jenkinson Lake: The CDFW hatchery truck showed up unannounced recently, and that has prompted a good trout bite. Get bait down around the first dam or the boat launch area, and you can get into a good bite. Cast-retrieve a lure with your second rod. This lake has nice mackinaw, and they'll be chasing the small trout to feed on.
Folsom Lake: Bass are either in the shallows or still moving in so the action can be downright good. Jigging over rock piles or even drop-shotting are ways to get bit. Working the shallows, bass are slamming Senkos, swim, crank and jerk baits.
A pretty good salmon bite has been found in the dam region, some running to three pounds. Speedy Shiners or a threaded crawler behind a dodger has been working. You need to get down to 50 feet. There are even a few holdover 'bows being seen.
Camp Far West: Outstanding bass fishing right now. One angler reported nearly 50 hookups on bass to 2½ pounds. Plastics thrown into the shallows are getting slammed. I've done well this time of year throwing chartreuse cranks. Fish the coves 8-10 feet deep up Rock Creek arm or the coves up and down the Bear River.

Paula Abdul exits 'X Factor'; third to leave show
LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Paula Abdul joined the exodus from Fox's disappointing "The X Factor," attributing her departure to business trumping all else.
LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Paula Abdul joined the exodus from Fox's disappointing "The X Factor," attributing her departure to business trumping all else.
Abdul said Tuesday she won't return to "dear friend" Simon Cowell's singing contest when it begins its second season later this year. Her announcement followed Monday's exits of fellow judge Nicole Scherzinger and host Steve Jones.
"I've learned through my longevity in this industry that business decisions often times override personal considerations," Abdul said in a measured statement. She and others involved with the show understand the situation, she said, adding, "Simon is, and will remain a dear friend of mine and I've treasured" working on "X Factor."
In a separate statement, Cowell didn't address the reason for the changes but thanked the exiting trio "for everything they did last year."
Cowell and Antonio "L.A." Reid remained on the judging panel. There was no immediate word from producers on who might fill the open seats.
Cowell returned Abdul's good wishes and said he expected he and his former "American Idol" teammate would work on another project in the near future.
Despite respectable ratings, "X Factor" has failed to achieve popularity similar to Fox's "American Idol," which Cowell left to import "X Factor" from the U.K. to the U.S. He had predicted his new show would be a blockbuster.

Brie Cracker Recipes
Bruleed Banana Cheese Gingersnap Treats (Croques Banane Brie Recipe)
I have Lulu to thank for inspiring me to prepare this snack. He was feeling a bit peckish, but there wasn't a lot of food at home (the refrigerator is broken ). We had some brie leftover from my little munchkin's birthday party, so he took a wedge of it and put it on a gingersnap cookie. Lulu was very proud of himself and offered me a bite.
The mixture of sweet and salty flavors and soft and crunchy textures was very pleasant, and it instantly took me back in time to my childhood. When I came home from school, I used to make myself brie and banana "sandwiches" with baguette or just sliced bread. It was probably my favorite snack. Given that there were some very ripe bananas in the house along with the brie and gingersnaps, it seemed only fitting that I should share a little bite of my childhood with Lulu and my little munchkin.
Of course, I'm not 7 anymore, so I decided to jazz it up a little. Caramelizing the bananas brought out additional flavors that really complemented the creaminess of the brie. And instead of white bread I used gingersnap cookies as the delivery device for the banana brie combo (thanks Lulu!). I've often found myself disappointed when I try to relive the memories of my favorite childhood dishes. This, happily, was not one of those times!

"Rhapsody of the Seas"
We had a wonderful cruise up the coast of Australia with Royal Caribbean. The food was fantastic, the crew were impeccable, the cabin (ours was a junior suite) was great with a nice large balcony, we had a brilliant time and can't wait to go again. Our only con was the constant bugging about gratuities, something I always considered was to be earned not expected.Read more

"New Years on the Rhapsody"
We had a fantastic NY cruise thanks to our cabin attendant who looked after us so well and the staff in the Edelweiss restaurant. Graham Seymour the entertainment director was absolutely fantastic and gave this cruise the edge over other cruises we have done, Unfortunately the staff at the main pool bar were very slow and in some instances rude. Also there was not enough bar staff for NYE in the R bar, I think there was only 4. Our junior suite was very noisy at 530am as it was located below the park café, when selecting you cabin see what is above. Overall a great time to the extent we are booking this NYE in Radiance.Read more

"Rhapsody of Seas 20 March, 2015 cruise to pacific island"
Having been on the Rhapsody before I was hoping for the same great cruise some 3 years ago. I wasn't let down in fact I would describe this cruise as the best of the 4 that I have undertaken. Everything was 5 star and the captain a real winner with the passengers. Pity the ship is heading to the Mediterranean or I would book again.Read more

I cant beleive I'm going to say this but I am not happy with this Survivor cast , oh I'll keep watching but am losing interest ..when it gets to final 9 then thats when things get really good .
Awww Puddin, I don't want you to lose interest in the show. You are the one I depend on to find articles, etc for me to read. Doesn't Cirie amuse you? We loved her in the immunity challenge. Actually that was the best immunity challenge I have seen in a long time. My kids laughed so hard when Cirie sat on Sally and just tossed people around and then how did Aras get out of that body hold and the kids favourite---Bobby grabbing a happy Ruth Marie by her straps and running to his mat for the win. I could watch that challenge again. :jumpy: :jumpy: :jumpy:
Oh I see how you made my deal say I'm a naked stalker.....how long has that been up there...LOL. I never look at those. I will now.almost 2 weeks :rotf:

When your child doesn't sleep well at night, is constantly cranky or seems overly sleepy during the day, your child may have a sleep disorder such as sleep apnea. At Nemours, our sleep medicine experts are board-certified pediatricians and pulmonologists (lung doctors) with special training in evaluating the causes of, and treating sleep disorders such as sleep apnea in children.
Most children have a restless night every now and then — but when it becomes a habit and your child is not getting enough sleep or quality sleep because of sleep apnea, it could lead to other physical and mental problems. Sleep apnea in children occurs when kids stop breathing during periods of sleep.
At Nemours, our team of sleep medicine experts will take a complete medical history of your child and perform a complete physical examination.
An overnight sleep study — polysomnography — conducted at one of our Sleep Centers, will measure your child's quality, quantity, and breathing patterns during sleep to determine if your child has sleep apnea.

I read about a new Roadshow Version 1.12 in Amiga News.
Question, Whether we get a new Roadshow for X1000?
I am asking, because I encountered several Problems when downloading larger files as Attachments to mails receiving with YAM 2.10 dev.
Yam got in an endless circle and could only be stopped by a total hard reset. Same occoured with YAM 2.9p1, but not so often.
Therefore I believe that the tcp stack is the culprit, not YAM.
Any comments?

B2WW is coming up in just a few short weeks. How do you plan on dealing with it? Are you just going to bike to work as usual, or are you doing other stuff?
I'm going to try to promote it a bit. My company has a small team participating in this year's Commuter Challenge, a local contest that rallies individuals, cycling novices, and whole teams of people together to count their miles.
I also decided that if weather permits, in the name of independent transportation, I will attempt to go at least one day all the way to work and back via bike. If it works out, I'll do it as many days as I can handle it. Keep in mind that this month I'm closing in on my goal of 300 miles spread out over 4 weeks. Riding my entire commute by bike for a week would likely be between 200 and 300 miles in just one week.
What are your plans?

I had planned to organize and/or push bike to work week, but decided it would be a waste of time. I'll do my rides and just clod along.

The local bike club usually does a media event on Bike to Work day where a bunch of people drive to a parking lot and then ride their bikes three blocks for the TV cameras. I joined this ride once many years ago, but it was way too staged for me.
I'll ride to work as usual.

Well, for the time being I haven't been cyclecommunting. I have a major project at work so I can't haul off early to ride home. I'm hoping to ramp back up in a week or two. In the mean time I've been roadbike training in the park.

Md. man charged with stealing Navy records
WASHINGTON (AP) — A Maryland man who in the 1980s was convicted of espionage and later pardoned for leaking spy satellite photos to a British magazine has been charged with stealing government records related to a famous Naval historian who was his grandfather.
Samuel Loring Morison, of Crofton, was arrested Tuesday but released pending trial. Prosecutors allege Morison, 69, stole government records tied to his grandfather, Rear Adm. Samuel Eliot Morison, from a Navy archive in Washington.
The elder Morison wrote a seminal 15-volume history of naval operations during World War II. A Harvard professor, he was also a two-time recipient of the Pulitzer Prize in the biography category. He died in 1976.
Prosecutors say the younger Morison took the files belonging to the Naval History and Heritage Command in Washington where he had been a part-time researcher. Prosecutors say approximately 34 boxes of government records were found in his home and that other records he took were being sold on eBay.
If convicted of theft of government property Morison faces a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.
When reached by telephone Tuesday, Morison referred questions to his attorney but called his grandfather his "idol."
Morison's attorney, Jim Wyda, said in an email that he and his client look forward to addressing the allegations in court.
Morison was convicted in 1985 of leaking three spy satellite photographs to the British military magazine Jane's Defence Weekly. At the time he gave the magazine the photographs, pictures the Soviet Navy's first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier under construction, he was a civilian employed by the Navy as an intelligence analyst. His attorneys defended Morison by saying he was trying to inform the public about a Soviet naval buildup and didn't disclose anything the Soviets didn't already know.
Morison was sentenced to two years in prison. He was pardoned by President Bill Clinton in 2001.

It is impossible that this story be about anything other than a 3 ½-minute trick in the Penn & Teller show. It is a very beautiful trick that can't be fully conveyed with words because it looks so simple: Teller makes a ball come to life. It isn't a very exciting trick in that no knives, fire or risk are involved. A lot of their tricks have those.
And, to make matters worse, the trick I have the (partial) lowdown on, Penn doesn't particularly like, or at least not until after he tells the audience how it is done—with a thread—before he walks off stage. And, therefore, yes, that's right: This is going to be a story about a ball and a string—and Teller.After Penn walks offstage, Teller, hoop in hand, slowly coaxes the ball to life and makes it do his bidding. Over the course of the trick the ball goes from indifferent to awakening to willing playmate. Though the narrative has Teller getting the ball to jump through his hoop, the ball's most singularly beautiful moment is when it attains a perfect balance on the edge of the hoop.

From the earliest days of Dungeons & Dragons, there have been townsfolk in need of heroic rescue.
From an adventure design standpoint, their presence and relative weakness force the heroes into the spotlight; since the townsfolk cannot help themselves, only the valiant heroes can save the day and, since the game is about players being heroes, players jump at the chance to get into character and the game when the townsfolk are in danger.
But townsfolk being in need of rescue also sets an expectation in players' minds that townsfolk are weak, since these country bumpkins apparently can't fend for themselves. Thus, in the best of cases, heroes look upon townsfolk as defenseless sheep; in the worst of cases, they bully or otherwise take advantage of the townsfolk, based upon their relative weakness. But should townsfolk be so weak?
That question must be answered in a balanced way. After all, the player characters are supposed to be the heroes, and making them weaker than the village scribe detracts from the fun considerably. But at the same time, townsfolk – especially in frontier areas – have probably had more combat experience than many heroic tier player characters, and wouldn't necessarily genuflect just because a third-level paladin has arrived in town.

A piece of information lacking in the other definitions is the fact that priapism, while sounding like fun, is extremely painful and requires surgery (aka draining the blood out) to fix. Priapism can be caused by several things, including the bite of certain venomous creatures on or near the genitalia, overdosing on a "male enhancement" supplement, spinal cord or brain injuries, clots, or sickle-cell anemia. Note that if you have been able to fap or bone your gf/wife/prostitute for four hours plus, you do not have priapism. If not treated properly, priapism can result in loss of genitals or possibly life.
Guy: Dude, I think I took to much Viagra. My dick feels like it's gonna blow!
Dude: That's priapism. It's not good, guy. You need to go to the hospital!

The practice of starting a tourist-shop near my gargantuan wang, and selling life-like custom-made miniaturized dildos - complete with pulsating dorsal vein - to the male gender, in order for them to treat their girlfriends on a properly sized dick.
I'm a priapist and worship the godlike phallus of my overlord.
Damn, I wish I had such a massively sized wang. I would totally skewer my bitch on it.
