22 April 2014 - Lucca, Italy
Tagetik is an Official Partner of the Italian Cycling Federation
The Tagetik logo will be displayed on the Azzurro jersey of the National Road Cycling Teams 'Junior' and 'Under 23'
Tagetik, a global provider of enterprise software solutions for performance management, disclosure management, financial governance and business intelligence, today announced it is an Official Partner of the Italian Cycling Federation. F.C.I. deal with the development, promotion, and organization of cycling in Italy and abroad through the management of the Italian national teams in national and international cycling competitions.
Until December 31, 2014, the Tagetik logo will be displayed on the Azzurro jersey of the National Road Cycling Teams 'Junior' and 'Under 23' participating in the Challenge UCI-Nations Cup 2014 and the European Road-Time Trial Championships (Switzerland – July 9-13, 2014).
"We are really proud to be a partner and sponsor of the Italian Cycling Federation," says Manuel Vellutini – Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer at Tagetik. "I hope that this new cycling talent grows rapidly and internationally, while at the same time, preserves the values and passion that helped support them along the way to achieve such a promising sports career. We identify with their journey, because similar to this new talent, Tagetik worked very hard to grow from a software vendor in Lucca to a now international vendor, regarded as one of the most visionary players within the corporate performance management software market."
"We are happy to welcome Tagetik as official sponsor of the Azzurro jersey 'Junior' and 'Under 23' in international cycling competitions," adds Renato di Rocco, President at Italian Cycling Federation. "The uniqueness of this sponsorship is that it is not exclusively limited to promotional, advertising, or communication initiatives, but it is a true partnership project set with the goal to mutually collaborate in the creation and organization of an event series in the cycling space."
"During the last few months, I had the opportunity to get to know the Tagetik management team and, from our talks, I could understand that the cycling world is quite similar to the software one," says Davide Cassani, Coach of the Italian National Cycling Team. "In order to win you need tons of passion, outstanding team work, and a lot of training. You can never give up, even when the climb gets hard. Big challenges enhance performance and victory makes the experience that much more beautiful. The Tagetik logo 'Performance with Passion' refers to these values and permeates throughout the organization as a DNA."
"Our passion for performance management is really in our DNA, and it is something we vow never to lose, in order to benefit our customers every-day," says Pierluigi Pierallini – President and CEO at Tagetik. "Our collaboration with the Italian Cycling Federation, and a great of Italian cycling such as Davide Cassani, is aimed at supporting those young cyclists who are following and feeding their passion, and it demonstrates our ongoing commitment to initiatives that grow the culture of sport and the positive values it promotes towards society."

Live Review and Photos: Public Enemy at Yoshi's
"When we first heard we were gonna play Yoshi's," said Chuck D last night, after "Brothers Gonna Work It Out" opened the set, "we knew it was a historic jazz club. We said, 'We know we can't rage against the machine in that motherfucker.' What do I do, wear my Sam Cooke suit? Do some Sonny Rollins shit?"
It must be a common question for the many who've played Yoshi's since it began regularly hosting hip-hop shows a couple years ago, from names like the Pharcyde and Foreign Legion to Mos Def and De La Soul: how to adapt? Or is it even required, since Yoshi's seems to be adapting to hip-hop? It only makes sense for the Bay Area's most famous jazz club to embrace the next great American artform, and the venue works well for it. Yes, the sound system was designed for Steinways and not Serato (Bass: How low can you go? Not very low), but the small stage, standing room and temporary bars on either side of the crowd fit the scene perfectly.
To a totally sold-out, shoulder-to-shoulder crowd, Public Enemy played a 90-minute set of every hit one could want to hear. "911 Is a Joke," "Welcome to the Terrordome," "Bring the Noise," "Don't Believe the Hype," "Terminator X to the Edge of Panic," "Burn Hollywood Burn"—and yes, most of the songs were over 20 years old. Age coupled with the red-velvet environs gave the night a nostalgic vibe, and on top of two decades already taking the incendiary edge off these songs, they were mitigated further by a general onstage playfulness.
The set featured Kool & the Gang and White Stripes riffs; an ongoing game of "toss the mic"; a James Brownian rule that anyone who messes up has to do 10 pushups; an "invisible studio fader" routine and of course, the ongoing antics of Flavor Flav. "I wanna thank y'all for makin' Flavor Flav the number-one reality TV star of the decade!" he shouted at one point, during a long monologue about his "second job" on a television show (involving girls defecating on the floor, among other things). And yet it wouldn't be Public Enemy without him—Chuck D even gave a little "every family has one" defense of Flav, if anyone doubted their closeness.
As for the music? The night was billed as Public Enemy "with a live band," but as Chuck D pointed out, they've been playing with a live band since 1999, inspired by a tour of Japan with the Roots. Chuck D has said in interviews that he wasn't ever really into jazz, that it was more his dad's thing, but there was plenty of flash to go around last night. New bassist Davy D at one point let Flav take over for "Welcome to the Terrordome" while the guitarist played solos behind his back; Flav even hopped on the drum set at the end.
And though Chuck D didn't break out any freestyles ("I'm the least talented member of the group," he quipped), his between-song improv touched on the importance of the Bay Area, referencing Sly and the Family Stone, Tower of Power, Etta James and Johnny Otis right on up to Too Short, DJ Q-Bert and JT the Bigga Figga. "Bay Area independent hip-hop always did the thing," Chuck D said in homage, "and they just never got support of local radio."
It's knowledge like that which separates Public Enemy from the rest. By the end of the set, Chuck D was wearing a "Justice for Oscar Grant" shirt and Flavor Flav was railing against racism and separatism. In the shadow of a chilling live version of "By the Time I Get to Arizona," and the shooting there last week, it was clear that the progress Public Enemy fought for twenty years ago is still elusive. While everyone in the place threw hopeful peace signs in the air, set closer "Fight the Power" felt more like a party than a war, but there's still a lot of bite in Public Enemy. Relevant bite, at that. Even in a jazz club. Thank goodness.
EXTRA POINTS: I dunno if it was P.E.'s doing or what, but playing the great Funky Riddims compilation Bay Area Funk before the show was a nice touch. ("Foxy Girls in Oakland." Listen to it!)
CELEBRITY SIGHTING: Those eyes didn't deceive you—Aesop Rock was in the crowd.

text: Installing HTTPIE (HTTP for Humans) on Windows - Great for ASP.NET Web API and RESTful JSON services August 17, '12 Comments [38] Posted in ASP.NET | Open Source | Web Services Sponsored By Recently in on a post on the RESTful ASP.NET Web API framework I used curl to post JSON to an HTTP endpoint: curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{ Name: 'Scott Guthrie', Age: 67}" Curl is lovely and should be in your c:\utils folder and more importantly in your PATH. I have a UTILS folder in my Dropbox and in the PATH on all my machines. Whenever I find a useful no-install utility I put it in there. Curl is great but it's still confusing enough to me that I don't use it enough. It's slightly obscure command-line switches are keeping me from using it on a regular basis. For HTTP work there is a better utility called HTTPie at http://httpie.org. (It has nothing to do with IE (Internet Explorer)). For Mac and Linux folks who use Python all the time, it's easy to install, you just pip install -U httpie For Windows folks who don't use Python it's a little harder to install, but it's worth it and I recommend you take a moment and set it up. You'll wonder how you lived without it. Installation of HTTPIE First, go download Python. I got the x86 version of Python 3.2.3 cause it was the latest and I didn't think I needed the x64 one. I then added c:\python32 and c:\python32\scripts to my path. I do this by hitting WinKey+Break, then Advanced, then Environment. Second, download CURL. Yes, I realize the irony, but it's still a VERY useful tool. I downloaded the 7.27 binary SSL Win32 version, unblocked it, unzipped it and put it in C:\UTILS so it was automatically in my PATH. Third, run this from an Administrator command prompt. Note again that it needs both curl.exe and python.exe in the PATH to run as it is. This should run without incident. curl http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py | python Then run curl -k https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py | python This should end with "successfully installed pip." Pip is a Python package manager. Finally, run pip install -U https://github.com/jkbr/httpie/tarball/master I'm recommending you install the development edge build of HTTPie rather than just "pip install httpie" as the developer is actively fixing Windows issues and just recently helped me with one. So, to sum up what you need to run, in four lines, assuming curl.exe, python.exe and python scripts are all in your PATH. curl http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py | pythoncurl -k https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py | pythoncurl https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py | pythonpip install -U https://github.com/jkbr/httpie/tarball/master Running HTTPie You'll know it works if you can run "http" from the command line and get this output: C:\Users\scottha\Desktop> httpusage: http-script.py [--help] [--version] [--json | --form] [--output FILE] [--pretty | --colors | --format | --ugly] [--print OUTPUT_OPTIONS | --verbose | --headers | --body] [--style STYLE] [--stream] [--check-status] [--auth USER:PASS] [--auth-type {basic,digest}] [--verify VERIFY] [--proxy PROXY] [--allow-redirects] [--timeout SECONDS] [--traceback] [--debug] [METHOD] URL [ITEM [ITEM ...]]http-script.py: error: too few arguments Here's where the fun happens. The syntax is VERY intuitive. Here I post some JSON to an endpoint that will echo it back. C:\> http POST http://localhost:50231/api/Contact name=scott age:=100HTTP/1.1 200 OKContent-Length: 26Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2012 21:59:51 GMTServer: Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0{ "age": 100, "name": "scott"} It's just like using HTTP itself, except from the command line. The best part is that it will take name=value for strings and name:=value for non-strings and turn it into JSON! HTTPie supports any HTTP Verb, FORM data, raw JSON, and lots of other features. Here's another example: C:\>http PUT api.example.com/person/1 name=John age:=29 married:=false hobbies:='["http", "pies"]'PUT /person/1 HTTP/1.1Accept: application/jsonContent-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8Host: api.example.comUser-Agent: HTTPie/0.2.7dev{ "age": 29, "hobbies": [ "http", "pies" ], "married": false, "name": "John"} There's lots more examples here https://github.com/jkbr/httpie/ and I encourage you to check it out. I'll leave you with a lovely PowerShell screenshot showing that HTTPie also does syntax highlighting at the command line! Awesome. Expect to see this tool in all my Web API and JSON demos. Go get it and star it at GitHub. About Scott Scott Hanselman is a former professor, former Chief Architect in finance, now speaker, consultant, father, diabetic, and Microsoft employee.

Assembly panel to consider assisted suicide bill
A New Jersey Assembly committee is set to consider a measure that would allow terminally ill patients to be prescribed medication that would end their lives.
The Death with Dignity Act would let adult patients who are told they have up to six months to live decide if they want to self-administer the lethal medication. Proponents say it gives these patients a choice to die humanely.
The Health and Senior Service committee is due to consider the measure Thursday.
The bill's sponsor says state statutes are outdated and that New Jersey should follow the examples of other states considering similar measures. The bill is modeled after ones in Washington and Oregon.
The bill calls for a referendum on the issue, but it also could be sent back to the legislature.

I am currently looking at the security of cryto USB drives for storing x509 certificates. I have one in possession currently. It can be read/written to using the Microsoft Crypto APIs. Anytime one reads/writes to/from the device it prompts for a PIN. The PIN can be changed using a UI which installs with the device.
I was wondering how exactly this PIN is stored/used?. Does the device store the PIN on the device itself? Or is the PIN used to generate a symmetric encryption key which is then used to encrypt the contents of the device. Which will mean that only the right PIN will allow you to read from the device and also the PIN is not available on the device itself.
So I was wondering if there is a standard way in which device vendors do this. If so, what is it?
This is what the PKCS#11 standard says
If a device does not have a tamper-proof environment or protected memory in which to store private and sensitive objects, the device may encrypt the objects with a master key which is perhaps derived from the user's PIN. The particular mechanism for protecting private objects is left to the device implementation, however.
It's not clear what's a tamper-proof environment or protected memory in case of a USB crypto device.

Wisconsin native Miller back in camp as instructor
PHOENIX -- After six years away, Damian Miller is back in uniform with the Brewers.
The former catcher is in the midst of a weeklong stint as an instructor in Milwaukee's camp. It is first coaching stint -- unless you count youth sports with his teenage kids, Josey and Jesse, in western Wisconsin.
"They had a meeting and I guess my name came up," Miller said. "They asked me if I wanted to come down and work with the catchers, and I said, 'Absolutely.'"
Just like that, Miller was back in the game. Besides appearing in fantasy camps for the Brewers and D-backs, he had not worn a uniform since retiring after a 2007 season spent in Milwaukee. Miller played for the Twins, D-backs, Cubs, A's and Brewers during an 11-year Major League career. He was a 2002 National League All-Star for Arizona.
It was Brewers special assistant Craig Counsell, a former Brewers and D-backs teammate, who suggested the Brewers bring Miller in.
"I came in not wanting to step on guys' toes, because everybody has their own way of doing stuff," Miller said. "But I talked to Ron [Roenicke, the Brewers' manager] right away, and he gave me some freedom right away. If I see something, I'm saying it. ... So I've talked to [Jonathan] Lucroy a couple of times about being a leader, and been over to Minor League camp with [catching coordinator] Charlie Green to talk to the kids. Just little things.
"I've really enjoyed the coaching staff of it. I played professionally for 18 years and gained some knowledge, and I like to share it. To be able to do it here instead of teaching 13-year-olds, it's a little different."
Whether this leads to a full-time coaching career, Miller is not sure. He may increase his time in camp in subsequent years and make a decision after his kids have left for college.
He arrived in Brewers camp the day before the team's Cactus League opener, and it quickly became apparent what he had missed most.
"I missed being in the dugout," Miller said. "That's good stuff there, being down there and seeing the pace of the game again, how fast it is. I can see first-hand, from field level, how Milwaukee is sitting pretty good in terms of the talent I've seen. When I was here, we were just kind of ascending.
"I'm glad to keep the foot in the door [in MLB]. But my kids are the age right now where they're into everything, and I hate to miss stuff. I don't want to close the door, for sure."

Training pants can be very useful when potty training a child because they do not act like a diaper or a pull up. The disposable diapers and pull ups tend to take the wetness away from the child so that they do not feel wet. The potty training pants are designed to make the child feel wet and uncomfortable, making them realize that they have gone potty. Eventually, it will become a sign to them that they need to go to the potty and they will let you know in order to stay dry and clean.
The Cloth Cotton Training Pants are thicker than regular underwear or panties and there is extra padding in the crotch area where an accident may occur. They come in:
If you are using the Cloth Cotton Training Pants, we offer the option for you to purchase the Waterproof Pull-on Pants to put over them. This item will help protect your furniture and floors from getting wet when they do have an accident. These may also be referred to as vinyl or nylon training pants.
In this section, you will also find training pants (2 in 1's) that include a nylon waterproof lining which is found on the inside of the training pants between two layers of fabric. They feel just like a cotton training pant but offer much more.
The 2 in 1's:
For night time use, we offer the Night Time Training Pants.
Last but not least, we also offer character underwear for potty training.

The time is almost here to leave for China, but before you depart for the airport make sure you have all of your immigration needs taken care of! It is important to keep any immigration related paperwork on your person/in your carry-on luggage and ready for your arrival in China.
Two important reminders for best practices when traveling abroad:
1. In order to board your international flight you will need your passport. You should have copies of your passport elsewhere. OGS recommends keeping a color copy of your passport and visa separately in your carry-on luggage. You should also have access to a digital encrypted copy of your passport and visa online that can be obtained from any computer. Additionally, you may want to leave a copy of your passport and visa with a parent or guardian, or whomever you trust and would call in an emergency. If your passport/visa is lost or stolen having a copy of such may help expedite getting a replacement.
2. After you arrive at your study away site, you should register with your local Embassy or Consulate. U.S. citizens can register with the U.S. Department of State's Smart Traveler Enrollment Program which will automatically alert the local U.S. Embassy or Consulate to your presence in country. Non-U.S. citizens should register with the relevant home country Embassy or Consulate abroad.

LETTER- Scholars, parents smeared by story
I have pretty much come to terms with The Hook's one-sided coverage of the Jefferson Scholars Foundation.
However, I draw the line at Lisa Provence's uninformed and unwarranted insult of two foundation board members, their Jefferson Scholar children, and perhaps most astoundingly, the dedicated people from both inside and outside the University community who take part in the Jefferson Scholar nomination and selection process ["Sliced: Endowment losses cut Jefferson Scholarships," January 22].
That process begins with nominations provided by high school counselors. It ends with a final selection weekend that includes interaction and interviews with committees comprised of UVA alumni, faculty, and administrators, all of whom volunteer their time and service.
The board members demeaned in the article neither nominated nor selected their own children. Additionally, these Jefferson Scholars went through the same selection process as other recipients. Who is Ms. Provence to pass judgment on their merits as Jefferson Scholars or to imply that they are not deserving?
Referring to a Jefferson Scholarship as a "perk" is a smear of many good people, and as such cannot go unchallenged.

Twitter launched a new service on Wednesday called the Twitter Political Index, or Twindex. By applying highly tuned algorithms to Twitter's fire hose of data, the service offers a real-time look at voters' moods, and scores which presidential candidate is trending up (and who is trending down) day to day.
Twindex is a joint effort between Twitter, Topsy, and two polling groups, the left-leaning Mellman Group and the more conservative NorthStar Opinion Research. The collective goal is to dive into Twitter's deep trove of data, and pull up insights faster than Gallup and other traditional polling companies. Expect to see Twindex results referenced in all political news and commentary as we head into the presidential election.
Welcome to the age of big political data.
In 2008, Twitter co-founder Ev Williams walked into the then-tiny Twitter office's very small conference room, and saw something remarkable: a way for Twitter to track what people were saying about the upcoming presidential election in real-time.
"If the dials are pointing in different directions, people are saying one thing to pollsters, and another in conversation." –Adam Sharp, Twitter's head of government news and social innovationThe company had contracted Jeff Veen's Small Batch to build a site that could show how people were talking about the election. And on this day, Veen was in the office to show what he'd come up with, a subdomain on Twitter – election.twitter.com – that could track trending terms and follow message volumes about the various political candidates.
When Veen's technology went live a few weeks later, it gave everyone a window into the vital discussions happening on Twitter. Williams was positively giddy.
It was, Williams explained to Wired, a glimpse of what Twitter could be. This was in Twitter's salad days, literally, when the most common knock on Twitter was that it offered little more than people boasting about what they ate for lunch. "In the future, Twitter will be less personal," Williams explained. "Less about status, even. It will be more about what's happening with trends and events."
When election day rolled around in November 2008, Twitter had one of its biggest traffic days ever. Users posted some 1.8 million tweets. The mood at the company headquarters that night was ebullient. Sure, there were plenty of happy Obama supporters present, but mostly the team was excited because its servers stayed up under the load. As results came in, cheers went up as the team announced not who won the election, but tweet volumes.
Today, both the election site and the server load seem quaint. 1.8 million tweets? Twitter now does that every six minutes. And while that early election site was fun to look at and very interesting, it wasn't truly useful for drawing insight. Twitter's sample size was simply too small. But now, four years later, all of that has changed.
Twitter is a big data company now. By its own reckoning, it has some 140 million active monthly users (outside estimates place it at 170 million) who tweet some 400 million times a day. And very, very many of them are talking politics. Now, with help from Topsy, Mellman and NorthStar, Twitter has found a way to extract voter sentiment from those conversations, measure it, and return a daily number. These results track very closely with the Gallup approval rating polling data.
Here's how it works.
Topsy uses Twitter's high-volume fire hose of data to look at every tweet in the world, and establish a neutral baseline. Separately, it looks at all the tweets about Barack Obama and Mitt Romney, runs a sentiment analysis on them, and compares this analysis to the baseline. It looks at three days' worth of tweets each day, weighting the newer ones higher than then older ones. It then returns a numerical score for each candidate based on how tweets about the individual compare to all tweets as a whole. A completely neutral score would be 50. Anything above that is a net positive, while lower is a net negative.
So, for example, if Obama has a score of 38, that would mean that tweets about him are more positive than 38 percent of all other messages on Twitter.
The project began when Twitter noticed that conversations about candidates on its own feeds accurately foreshadowed voter sentiments showing up in traditional polls. For example, during a FoxNews debate broadcast in which viewers were asked to rate candidates' responses as either "answer" or "dodge," Twitter saw a profound uptick in positive responses about Newt Gingrich. A few days days later, Gingrich was indeed moving up in the polls, but Twitter could see this shift in real-time, much, much earlier, during the debate.
Similarly, in the run-up to the Michigan and Arizona primaries, Twitter saw Mitt Romney's follower count surge, while Rick Santorum's sputtered out. When the election results came in, they confirmed what Twitter was seeing internally: Its own social media provided an inside line on what voters were thinking.
So Twitter began working with polling groups and Topsy to look into the political data buried in the din of constant online chatter – they wanted a better way to measure the sentiment voters were expressing in real-time. Topsy would look at every single tweet sent in the world, every day, and create a three-day average baseline. It created an algorithm to understand which tweets skewed positive and which were negative. Together, Twitter and Topsy built a keyword engine, and via repetitive, ongoing spot checks by human observers, they found their algorithm would generate voter-accurate results 90 percent of the time.
And that was just the beginning of a refinement process. Every time they ran the data set against human curators and found differences, they were able to improve the algorithm. What Twitter eventually built was the Twindex. It didn't rely on questions, and could be generated in real-time. And when Twitter compared the Twindex for Obama with Gallup's approval rating, the graph was remarkable.
"We pulled this up and said 'Oh, I think we're onto something,'" says Adam Sharp, Twitter's head of government news and social innovation. "At first glance, you can readily see some parallels in the data."
As it continued to refine its methods, Twitter found that it had an increasingly strong correlation with Gallup polling data. But more interesting, obviously, is where the numbers diverge.
"If the dials are pointing in different directions, people are saying one thing to pollsters, and another in conversation," explains Sharp. "That is where the Twitter index is providing a real service to journalists, because it's where we are saying we don't have a complete picture, and need to be asking better questions."
Twitter attributes some of this to the differences between ongoing conversations (Twitter) and specific responses to specific questions (traditional polling). For example, in the weeks after Osama Bin Laden was killed, there was a discrepancy in what Twitter and Gallup found. A possible explanation of this is that voters might have answered approval rating poll questions very positively in the weeks after the raid, but in ongoing conversations with each other on Twitter, sentiment focused more on normal, day-to-day concerns about the economy.
Twitter hopes to apply the Twindex to other issues – including, of course, analyzing sentiment around brands. But it's also hopeful that others will take its findings and run with them.
"One of the reasons why we partnered with Topsy was because a secondary goal was to boost the ecosystem around big Twitter data," says Sharp. "To demonstrate the data was big enough, and show that it was available via existing entirely publicly available data."

2013 Biological Photo Contest
From EEBedia
Revision as of 21:29, 22 February 2013 by William Ryerson (Talk | contribs)
This page showcases the entries to the 2013 Biological Photo Contest. Voting will commence in the week preceding the Grad Symposium with winners announced at the end of the Symposium. To enter, send your full resolution photo and caption to email@example.com and it will be put on this page.
|Phylogenetic tree of tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum), drawn using neighbor-joining method. The tree illustrates the evolutionary history of tomatoes in the simplest form ever, so that even Bill Ryerson will understand (in response to his picture caption in Grad Symposium 2012) - Hamid Razifard
|From one of the miniature plants of South Africa's Knersvlakte, these immature leaves stand less than 2 inches tall. Yet as they mature, they transform from folded ribbons to crimped extensions to long and flattened, fully-expanded leaves with only an occasional wrinkle, pointing out from the quartz gravel like TV antennae! - Kerri Mocko
|Flying along the dog sled paths of McCarthy, Alaska, a tiny fly is attracted to the enticing sulphuric odors, of which it expects will lead to a fresh pile of dung. Upon arrival, disappointment settles in as the fly realizes it has been duped by some stinky plant, the common dung moss, or Tetraplodon mnioides. A quick rest atop the dark purplish-red sporophytes of the dung moss, and the fly is off to find a real pile of dung. Little does the fly know, that it has been recruited for the dispersal of the bright yellow spores of the common dung moss. - Lily Lewis
|I don't know what Hamid is going on about. THIS is neighbor joining, and now its a party. - Bill Ryerson
|A sally light-foot crab (Grapsus grapsus) living a very comfortable life in the Galapagos Islands. - Colin Carlson
|Bill, please enter my photo in the 'Plant' category. Thanks, Kurt - Kurt Schwenk
|If zoo pictures count, is this mammalogist studying Gorilla or Gorilla studying mammalogist - Laura Cisneros

What a Lagaan moment I had yesterday! Turns out the Stair Climb to the Top is coming up in September, and some of us signed up for a run up the 75 floors of the US Bank Tower in Downtown Los Angeles. I'll hope to dedicate my climb to Lakha, the unsung hero in the greatest cricket match ever played. He was asked to go up and down, to and from the temple atop the Champaner hill, and he did it just to be drafted onto the team. He's really earned a dedication after being forgiven by Bhuvan :)
Remember this?
Of course, one assumes the risk of being ridiculed from the likes of Ishwar uncle too...
...but at least there's no Gauri (she and Elizabeth deserved a dedicated post during Lagaan Week, maybe next year?) in Downtown LA (although having her around would be a heck of a motivating force):
The goal for our first practice is 20 minutes for the 75 floors. The record last year was a little under 10 (that's ridiculous, and I am not in near good enough shape to even give that a shot).
Instead of answering in the affirmative, I'm more in tune with this statement:
And while on the theme of reaching new heights, enjoy this wonderful song from Khamoshi (1996):

Soda: Grapico, A Rich Taste of Alabama
Growing up, I was crazy about grape soda. For years, I dreamt of making enough money to buy a house where I could stock an entire room with grape soda and drink it all day, with no one there to stop me.
I would happily have run off to the Land of Grapico, depicted in the 1916 song "Meet Me in the Land of Grapico" as a place full of vines, whispering trees, singing birds, and the sweet perfume of grape soda. "Love lives forever in love land," goes the song. "That dear land of Grapico."
What drink inspired such verse? Grapico, born in New Orleans, Louisiana in 1914, moved to Alabama in 1917 and has been produced there since. Though flavored artificially, the soda skyrocketed to early fame with advertisements that implied that it contained real grape juice (complaints from real grape-juice vendors led to eventual charges from the Federal Trade Commission that forced Grapico vendors to adjust their advertising). Today, the soda enjoys a cult following among Alabamians almost equivalent to that of Cheerwine in the Carolinas.
Dark purple and light on fizz, Grapico is so loaded with sugar and artificial coloring that, with a spoon more of either, it just might harden into candy. The flavor is an artificial grape to rival all others, rich as that of a grape lollipop and just about as sweet. In the depth of its sweetness, the drink approaches the faux-chocolate flavor of the Tootsie Rollall in all, it tastes like nothing so much as a grape Tootsie Pop.
Grapico is nothing new, flavor-wise, but the grape-drink crazy among us will appreciate a soda so heavy on flavoring that the rest of us could probably use it as concentrate. Over melting ice, on a warm dayand don't laugh, temperatures are in the seventies in my hometown of Charleston this weekit's a rich taste of Alabama with a syrupy punch that satisfies.

Turns out my response to Leiandra's post garnered a whole slew of responses of my own. I remain vigilantly aware of Blizzard's upcoming changes to our class. Our class evolution has gone from Grand Master Healer to a support medic on the front lines. That's all we are really… a support class. Sure we've got all of our awesome tools at our disposal. When's the last time anyone's really used Holy Nova on a tactically beneficial level? Last time I spammed Holy Nova was against a certain red dragon in Blackwing Lair. But that's when mana was infinite. Pwyff's comments were bang on when summarizing the strength of each healing class.
If we truly were the end all and be all of all healers, there would be no need for hybrid healers like Paladins, Shamans, and Druids. All raids would be filled with nothing but Priests. The reason why there is a sort of parity along the healing classes is because Blizzard wanted to make raiding flexible for a large amount of players. If all a raid needed were Priests, then the other healers would sit out and be unused. There had to be some kind of equality so that classes could be kind of interchangeable.
Anyone like problem solving? I love problem solving. Chances are, if you're playing WoW, you like problem solving. If you think about it, WoW is a big giant puzzle that's meant to be solved. This is one of the assignments I had for homework in my cognitive science class. So here's a puzzle for you:
The scenario
Three Human Priests and three Orcs arrive at Menethil Harbor, and they all wish to cross to Kalimdor. Fortunately, there is a boat, but unfortunately, the boat can only hold two creatures at one time. Orcs are vicious creatures, and whenever there are more orcs than Priests on one side of the river, the orcs will immediately attack the Priests and slaughter them. You must be certain that you never leave more orcs than Priests on any side of the maelstrom. How should the problem be solved? The foul orcs can be trusted to bring the boat back safely. There must be one creature in the boat to pilot it. If the Kalimdor shore has an Orc, and there is an inbound Orc and a Priest, the Priest will be ripped to shreds even though they're on the boat.
Note: Each time you cross the river, it is considered one step.
The problem is solvable with a minimum of 11 steps. I'll post a solution later. If you solve it, don't spit out the solution in comments yet, but DO say that you figured it out.

Power Wheels ATV Tour La Fortuna Costa Rica
Power Wheels in La Fortuna is the BEST ATV tour in the area, maybe in all Costa Rica (we'll have to get back to you on that one). We take the places we recommend very seriously since it's pretty much our reputation on the line so we take great care in regards to what we say about who. Fact is, we've been on the other ATV tours in the area and Power Wheels is the best, simple as that. The biggest reason Power Wheels is the best is probably because of the area they use do run their tours- it's simply BEAUTIFUL.
I could write or you could just CHECK OUT the video we did....and I'm sure you'll get the picture.

I like the idea of downloading programs to your phone for listening offline, but it seems that even when listening to a downloaded program, it is streaming as long as a data connection is available. I download the Stern shows on WiFi at home so that I can listen to them in my car without using up my data plan, but I noticed the other day that while listening to the "downloaded" content it was eating data.
Does anyone know why it still streams the content even though I've previously downloaded it?

Welcome to the Linux Foundation Forum!
NVIDIA Driver Help
in Drivers
Hello to all who read!
I am wanting to install drivers for my GeForce GPU on Fedora 15 but I don't know which runlevel runs without X/how to stop my X server.
Could some one please give me some detailed instruction or a command script?
Goineasy9 Posts: 1,116Sorry for the delay, so, if you haven't found an answer to your question yet, this guide from the fedoraforums should help. I currently use the Nouveau Open Source drivers on my Fedora installs. I have since F13 when they seemed to have matured. Installing the Nvidia proprietary drivers are problematic, but, I've found that Leigh's guide to installing them is the safest way. See this link, the info is in the first post of the thread, and, make sure you complete all 3 steps the way he lists them. Good Luck.
Thank you for the help!
If your wanting to know, I am chaning to official NV drivers
Because with nouveau I'm having some performance issues.
Thanks again!0
woboyle Posts: 501Yes, nouveau is getting better, but it isn't "there" yet. You need to boot into runlevel 3 in order to boot into text mode. You can then login as root and install the nVidia driver. It will give you the option of having it modify your xorg.conf file if you wish, though I prefer to edit it myself. To change the boot process to use runlevel 3, edit the line "id:5:initdefault:" in /etc/inittab to read "id:3:initdefault:". When you are done installing the driver, test it by running the command "startx". That will start an X session using either Gnome or KDE. If it starts OK, then logout of the session, change /etc/inittab back to runlevel 5 and reboot.0
johnvanvliet Posts: 5but it isn't "there" yet
reading leigh's "how to" post is a good start
remember that if you usr the nvidia.run on fedora you will ALSO need to reinstall therpms for mesa and it's -devel to REINSTALL these
- gl.h,glext.h,glx.h,glxext.h,libGL.so,libglx.so,
the .run replaces the DIFFERENT version that fedora uses .
editing inttab ?
i would run as root
su - telinit 3relogin as root in the text terminal and install the .run
REBUILD the boot image !!!!!! - a MUST !!!
one time only when changing from the nouveau
unless you want to do this for EVERY kernel .xorg,mesa,x11 update install
the " akmod-nvidia" rpm
that is BY FAR THE MOST easiest one text line and you are done
yum install akmod-nvidia0

I have tried something to solve the series $$\binom{n}{1}^2+2\binom{n}{2}^2 + 3\binom{n}{3}^2 + 4\binom{n}{4}^2+\cdots + n\binom{n}{n}^2.$$ My approach is : $$(1+x)^n=\binom{n}{0} + \binom{n}{1}x + \binom{n}{2}x^2 + \cdots + \binom{n}{n}x^n.$$ Differentiating the above equation $$n(1+x)^{n-1} = \binom{n}{1} + \binom{n}{2}x + \cdots + n\binom{n}{n}x^{n-1}$$
Also, $$ \left(1+\frac{1}{x}\right)^n =\binom{n}{0} + \binom{n}{1}\frac{1}{x} + \binom{n}{2}\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)^2 + \cdots + \binom{n}{n}\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)^n$$ Multiplying above two equation I get, $$\begin{align*} &{n(1+x)^{n-1}\left(1 + \frac{1}{x}\right)^n}\\ &\quad= \left( \binom{n}{1}^2 + 2\binom{n}{2}^2 + 3\binom{n}{3}^2 + 4\binom{n}{4}^2 + \cdots + n\binom{n}{n}^2\right)\left(\frac{1}{x}\right) + \text{other terms} \end{align*}$$
So I can say that coefficient of $\frac{1}{x}$ in expansion of $n(1+x)^{n-1}(1+\frac{1}{x})^n$ will give me the required answer.
Am I doing it correct,please correct me if I'm wrong ?
If I'm right,please tell me how to calculate the coefficient of $\frac{1}{x}$ ?
Based on the answers,I tried to implement the things in a C++ code.
I tried implementing the code using extended euclidean algorithm so that the problem of truncated division can be eliminated but still not abled to figure out why am I getting wrong answer for n>=3. This is my updated code : http://pastebin.com/imS6rdWs I'll be thankful if anyone can help me to figure out what's wrong with this code.
Finally abled to solve the problem.Thanks to all those people who spent their precious time for my problem.Thanks a lot.This is my updated code :

David Brooks Award Statement
The Award for Excellence in the Reporting of Social Issues goes to New York Times columnist and PBS Newshour commentator David Brooks. As the nominating letter for Brooks stated, "Few commentators in the public sphere, from anywhere on the political spectrum, have done as much as David Brooks to promote public understanding of and appreciation for the social sciences in general and sociology in particular in recent years." Over the years, Brooks's columns have used or explored, either explicitly or implicitly, such core sociological themes as social capital, status, trust, embeddedness, networks, norms, and the impact of social structures of life chances. His columns regularly mention sociologists (ranging from senior scholars to graduate students) by name and provide a wide audience for their work. For example, his columns have described or otherwise promoted the work of scholars including Manuel Castells, Christopher Jencks, Lisa Keister, Annette Lareau, and Robert Wuthnow. He has criticized economists for an insufficiently social view of human nature, insisting that economics must "get human nature right" (Brooks quote). For these accomplishments and others detailed in his nominating letter, David Brooks is the recipient of the 2011 Reporting of Social Issues Award.

Cities with the most content workers
Americans spend much of their day at work, and more than half of Americans rated their overall work environment poorly last year. Although the number of workers who gave their workplace a positive overall review is up to 48% from an all-time low of 47.2% in 2011, it has yet to recover to past levels of over 51%.
Of course, workers in different cities can have markedly different feelings about their jobs. According to the recent Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index, San Luis Obispo, Calif., was the metropolitan area with the best work environment. The area with the worst work environment was Fayetteville, N.C.
To determine the best and worst work environments, Gallup surveyed hundreds of thousands of Americans in 189 metropolitan areas in the U.S. in 2012 and 2013. The Work Environment Index included four metrics: job satisfaction; whether employees felt they used their strengths at work; how employees were treated by their supervisors; and whether supervisors created an open and trusting work environment.
How workers were treated by their supervisors was perhaps the most meaningful indicator of a healthy workplace. According to Dan Witters, research director of the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index, workers were far more likely to give positive evaluations to other elements of their jobs if they felt treated like a partner at work. As a result, the cities with the best work environments were largely those where workers most often felt treated like a partner.
In fact, seven of the 10 best cities for work also had among the 10-highest percentages of workers who felt treated like a partner at work. Workplace environments were also tied to other well-being measures such as emotional and physical health. "Emotional health gets better where work environment well-being is higher," Witters said.
But, he added, the relationship between emotional health and work environment is reciprocal. Emotionally healthy workers make more valuable employees and are more likely to be hired in the first place. In the cities where people most enjoyed work, residents were more likely to say they learned something new every day, a key measure of emotional health in the Well-Being Index. In the San Luis Obispo metro area, more than 73% of residents said they had learned something new or interesting in the past day, a higher rate than in all but three other metro areas nationwide.
The opposite was frequently true in poorly ranked cities, where workers were far less likely to feel they had daily learning opportunities. Witters also highlighted that a good work environment is often connected to better exercise and eating habits.
"Workplaces that advocate and promote high well-being lifestyles can have a very significant influence [on employees]," Witters explained. Simultaneously, "people who exhibit those healthier behaviors are more attractive for a workplace to hire."
For instance, all but two of the 10 best cities for work had smoking rates below the national rate, and just 11.1% of San Jose residents smoked, the second lowest rate in the nation. At the other end, residents in the nation's worst cities for work were more likely to smoke and practice other unhealthy behaviors.
In Charleston, W. Va., more than 34% of residents smoked, the highest percentage in the nation. Since answers to questions from Gallup's work environment index were provided by people who had jobs, the health of the areas' job market may not always have a huge impact on workplace environment well-being.
While six of the 10 highest rated cities had unemployment rates below the national rate as of December, four did not. In the Visalia, California metro area, the unemployment rate was 13.1%, nearly double the national rate of 6.7% that month. Similarly, among the worst rated cities, Charleston's unemployment rate was 5.4% — much lower than the national rate. While not a direct relationship, the health of the job market can affect workplaces.
For instance, the recession and constant daily layoffs has created stressful work environments overall and therefore also impacted workers with a job. In some cases, when it is harder find a job, "you'll see [some] supervisor-worker relationships erode, and suffer, as a result of that shifted power arrangement." Median income and educational attainment rates might be expected to have substantial effects on workplace evaluations, but that was not always the case. In several instances, respondents from relatively poor areas overwhelmingly approved of their jobs, while residents of wealthier areas were often likely to give poor assessments.
For example, in the Fort Smith metro area, located in Arkansas and Oklahoma, median household income was just $36,061 in 2012, but residents rated their workplaces fifth-best. Median household income in the Poughkeepsie, New York metro area, on the other hand, was $66,612 that year, but residents their rated their workplaces among the worst. According to Witters, this is due primarily to the weight a supervisor carries in determining the quality of a work environment.
If you have a bad supervisor, your work experience will be poor regardless of the level of your education and financial situation. Witters said, as your education improves, however, the kinds of jobs available to you are going to be different. For example, in "the low education, low income jobs, you're going to be more likely to be in a hierarchical arrangement — you're less likely to be in a role that requires you to be imaginative and creative and collaborative." Rather, "you're more likely to be in a role where you just need to take your orders and do what you're told to." To identify the best and worst cities for work, 24/7 Wall St.reviewed the metropolitan areas with the best and worst scores on the Work Environment Index, part of the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index.
The Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index assessed 189 metropolitan statistical areas. The Work Environment Index is one of five subindices included in the groups' overall score. The index measures workplace happiness for the U.S., states, metropolitan areas and occupations, based on answers to four questions.In addition to these figures, we also considered income, poverty and educational attainment data from the U.S. Census Bureau, all from 2012. Local, seasonally adjusted unemployment rates, current as of December 2013, are from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. These are the cities with the most content and miserable workers.
Here are the best cities for work:
10. Kingsport-Bristol-Bristol, Tenn.-Va.
> Work environment index score: 54.7
> Pct. feel treated with respect: 90.9% (49th lowest)
> Pct. learned something new that day: 54.5% (2nd lowest)
> Pct. with college degree: 19.2% (75th lowest)
> Median household income: $37,769 (21st lowest)
Unlike some of the cities where workers are most satisfied, Kingsport area residents had low educational attainment rates, with slightly more than 19.2% of adults 25 and older having graduated college, considerably lower than the national rate. A typical household in the area also made just $37,769 in 2012, considerably lower than most other metro areas. Despite the low education levels and incomes, area workers had among the most pleasant work environments. Employees in the Kingsport metro area had among the best supervisors in the nation last year. Nearly 65% of survey-respondents felt their supervisors treated them like a partner, and 84.6% felt their supervisors created a trusting work environment, more than all but a handful of other areas reviewed.
9. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, Calif.
> Work environment index score: 54.8
> Pct. feel treated with respect: 93.5% (11th highest)
> Pct. learned something new that day: 68.4% (32nd highest)
> Pct. with college degree: 46.4% (10th highest)
> Median household income: $90,737 (the highest)
A typical household in the San Jose metro area earned more than $90,000 in 2012, more than in any other metro area in the nation. High incomes are likely the result of the strong presence of traditionally high-paying sectors. For instance, the professional, scientific, and management sector accounted for 18.4% of the area jobs, much higher than the sector's proportion of less than 11% of workers nationwide. Large companies such as Google and Apple are based in the area and provide lucrative job opportunities to area residents. Like a number of high-paying tech companies, both companies were listed on Glassdoor's Best Places to Work this year. Additionally, residents of the San Jose metro area, along with those of Washington, D.C., had the highest economic confidence in the nation, according to a recent Gallup survey.

8. Kennewick-Pasco-Richland, Wash.
> Work environment index score: 55.0
> Pct. feel treated with respect: 93.9% (7th highest)
> Pct. learned something new that day: 66.6% (49th highest)
> Pct. with college degree: 24.8% (173rd lowest)
> Median household income: $57,189 (54th highest)
Nearly nine in 10 respondents from the Kennewick region said they used their strengths at work last year, more than in all but four other metro areas. Supervisors in the region were also well-regarded, with 66.7% of respondents reporting their supervisor treated them like a partner last year, second-highest among all areas reviewed. Residents earned more than most Americans, with a median household income of $57,189 in 2012, compared to $51,371 nationwide. While the relationship to workplace satisfaction is unclear, a relatively large percentage — 8.4% of the workforce — was employed in the agricultural industry, more than four times the rate across the nation.
7. Roanoke, Va.
> Work environment index score: 55.1
> Pct. feel treated with respect: 91.2% (67th lowest)
> Pct. learned something new that day: 64.1% (91st lowest)
> Pct. with college degree: 25.5% (182nd highest)
> Median household income: $46,974 (181st highest)
Unlike other metro areas with highly rated workplaces, supervisors in Roanoke were not as likely to create a trusting work environment. Less than 80% of respondents thought their supervisor did so in 2013, in-line with the average across all metro areas. However, this did not prevent residents from liking their jobs, with 90.5% of survey respondents reporting job satisfaction, among the best job evaluations among all metro areas surveyed. The job climate in Roanoke is also relatively good, with just a 5.4% unemployment rate in December last year, below the national rate of 6.7% that month.
6. Visalia-Porterville, Calif.
> Work environment index score: 55.3
> Pct. feel treated with respect: 93.9% (7th highest)
> Pct. learned something new that day: 65.4% (65th highest)
> Pct. with college degree: 14.7% (12th lowest)
> Median household income: $40,302 (50th lowest)
The unemployment rate in the Visalia metro area was an abysmal 13.1% last December, considerably higher than the national rate of 6.7% that month. Meanwhile educational attainment rates were well below the national rate, with fewer than 15% of residents over 25 holding a college degree. Despite all this, survey respondents felt much better about their workplace than most metro areas surveyed. Respondents rated supervisors, in particular, very well, with 65.6% of residents saying their superiors treated them like a partner. Like several other regions with positively-reviewed work environments, the agriculture sector made up a large proportion of employment in the Visalia area, accounting for nearly 19% of the workforce, compared with just 2.0% nationwide.
5. Fort Smith, Ark.- Okla.
> Work environment index score: 56.4
> Pct. feel treated with respect: 91.5% (85th lowest)
> Pct. learned something new that day: 59.2% (15th lowest)
> Pct. with college degree:15.8% (24th lowest)
> Median household income: $36,061 (9th lowest)
Residents of the Fort Smith metro area were more likely to say their supervisors provided a trusting environment than Americans anywhere else, with 88.2% saying so in the last year. Nearly 92% were also satisfied with their jobs, more than the vast majority of metro areas reviewed by Gallup. Job satisfaction, however, does not seem to be connected with high incomes in Fort Smith, where a typical household earned just $36,061 in 2012, among the lowest nationwide. Additionally, it did not seem to have much bearing on how people rated other elements of their lives. Fort Smith residents rated their present lives and their future expectations lower than residents anywhere else in the U.S. More than 17% of the workforce in Fort Smith were employed in the manufacturing sector, compared with slightly more than 10% of workers nationwide.
4. Naples-Marco Island, Fla.
> Work environment index score: 57.8
> Pct. feel treated with respect: 96.7% (the highest)
> Pct. learned something new that day: 64.6% (80th highest)
> Pct. with college degree: 31.0% (88th highest)
> Median household income: $54,126 (81st highest)
Naples residents reported feeling less stressed than those in any other metro area reviewed by Gallup, with more than 70% reporting no stress during the majority of the previous day last year. Low stress levels in the area may be due to a healthy work environment and a relatively good job market. Nearly 64% of respondents thought their supervisors treated them like an equal, compared with just 56.6% nationwide. The area unemployment rate was less than 6.0% in December of that year, much lower than the national unemployment rate of 6.7%.
3. Fort Collins-Loveland, Colo.
> Work environment index score: 58.2
> Pct. feel treated with respect: 93.5% (11th highest)
> Pct. learned something new that day: 71.8% (7th highest)
> Pct. with college degree: 44.7% (13th highest)
> Median household income: $55,890 (63rd highest)
Like many of the cities where workers are satisfied, residents of the Fort Collins metro area are well educated, with nearly 45% of adults 25 years and older having at least a bachelor's degree as of 2012. Much of the work in the area demands high skills and education. This may translate, for many residents, into intellectually stimulating work. Nearly 72% of residents said they learned something new daily, more than all but six metro areas. The area is home to a large number of high-tech manufacturers, as well as Colorado State University, a major research institution. Overall, more than 90% of Fort Collins respondents were satisfied with their jobs, among the highest rates in the U.S.
2. Lincoln, Neb.
> Work environment index score: 58.7
> Pct. feel treated with respect: 90.8% (43rd lowest)
> Pct. learned something new that day: 69.8% (16th highest)
> Pct. with college degree: 35.9% (41st highest)
> Median household income: $50,668 (126th highest)
More than 91% of Lincoln inhabitants said they were satisfied with their jobs last year, the 12th-highest percentage in the nation. Additionally, nearly 64% of respondents felt treated like a partner at work, higher than in all but a handful of other metro areas. Like many of the cities where workers are satisfied, the area is home to a major research university. Lincoln is home to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, which spent a quarter-billion dollars on research and development in fiscal 2012 and had more than 8,000 employees as of 2013. The area's job market was excellent as of December last year, with an unemployment rate of just 3.3%.
1. San Luis Obispo-Paso Robles, Calif.
> Work environment index score: 59.1
> Pct. feel treated with respect: 92.7% (35th highest)
> Pct. learned something new that day: 73.3% (4th highest)
> Pct. with college degree: 33.5% (59th highest)
> Median household income: $60,264 (36th highest)
San Luis Obispo residents evaluated their work experiences better than residents in any other metro area. Nearly nine in 10 area residents were satisfied with their jobs last year. This may be due in part to the fact that respondents believed their lives were filled with interesting experiences and intellectual growth. More than 73% of respondents said they learned something new or interesting the previous day, more than in all but three other metro areas. Additionally contributing to residents' high ratings of their workplace, more than 88% said they utilized their strengths at work and more than 67% felt treated like a partner, both among the highest rates in the country. Workers were also relatively well-paid, with a median household income of $60,264 in 2012, well above the national median of $51,371 that year.

Note: Recipe may be doubled.
Tester's note: It isn't necessary to shake off excess powdered sugar after rolling. Baking on a greased sheet results in just enough spreading to make the cookies a perfect two-bite size. If you bake on parchment paper, the cookies spread a bit less and are more ball-shaped. These should not brown; baking 12 minutes allows the cookies to stay soft. I also tested this with chocolate cake mix with good results.

CALGARY, Alberta, November 29, 2012
CALGARY, Alberta, November 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
Crescent Point Energy Corp. ("Crescent Point" or the "Company") (TSX: CPG) is pleased to report that the previously announced acquisition (the "Ute Acquisition") of Ute Energy Upstream Holdings LLC ("Ute") closed today. With closing of the Ute Acquisition, Crescent Point acquires production of approximately 7,800 boe/d and establishes a new core area in the Uinta Basin light oil resource play in northeast Utah.
Other key attributes of the Ute assets acquired include:
"The Ute Acquisition adds another significant resource play to our portfolio," said Scott Saxberg, president and CEO of Crescent Point. "These assets have all of the characteristics that we look for in a light oil resource play."
The Uinta Basin has been producing light oil since the 1950s and, in recent years, has experienced a resurgence in activity with the application of new drilling and completion techniques. Through the application of infill drilling and multi-stage fracture stimulation to both vertical and horizontal oil wells, Crescent Point believes greater potential can be unlocked in the resource play. To develop and exploit the multiple zones in the play, Crescent Point expects to drill both vertical and horizontal wells and to increase well density.
Crescent Point believes the Uinta Basin has low-risk production growth potential over the coming years and that it has similar upside exposure as the Bakken and Shaunavon resource plays in the early stages of their development. This light oil resource play represents the Company's third-largest resource play in terms of production and reserves.
Taking the completion of the Ute Acquisition into account, as well as consolidation acquisitions that closed in fourth quarter 2012, the Company's average daily production in 2012 is expected to be more than 97,000 boe/d and its 2012 exit production rate is expected to be more than 109,000 boe/d.
"Our successful drilling, facilities' optimization and waterflood results this year have positioned us well for a strong start to 2013, as we are currently on track to meet or exceed our targets for 2012," said Scott Saxberg, president and CEO of Crescent Point.
The Company expects to release its 2013 capital expenditure plans in early December 2012.
Certain statements contained in this press release constitute forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are based on Crescent Point's beliefs and assumptions based on information available at the time the assumption was made. The use of any of the words "could", "should", "can", "anticipate", "expect", "believe", "will", "may", "projected", "sustain", "continues", "strategy", "potential", "projects", "grow", "take advantage", "estimate", "well-positioned" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. By their nature, such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. Crescent Point believes that the expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this report should not be unduly relied upon. These statements speak only as of the date of this press release or, if applicable, as of the date specified in those documents specifically referenced herein.
In particular, this press release contains forward-looking statements pertaining to the following: drilling locations and reserves associated with the Ute assets; the anticipated benefits of the Ute Acquisition; expected production growth from Ute wells drilled, but not yet completed; the expected impact of infill drilling and multi-stage fracture stimulation in the Uinta Basin; the Company's projected average daily and exit production for 2012; and the expected release of the Company's 2013 capital expenditures plans.
By their nature, such forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which could cause actual results or other expectations to differ materially from those anticipated, including those material risks discussed in our annual information form under "Risk Factors" and our Management's Discussion and Analysis for the year ended December 31, 2011, under the headings "Risk Factors" and "Forward-Looking Information." The material assumptions are disclosed in the Management's Discussion and Analysis for the year ended December 31, 2011, under the headings "Dividends", "Capital Expenditures", "Decommissioning Liability", "Liquidity and Capital Resources", "Critical Accounting Estimates", "Future Changes in Accounting Policies" and "Outlook," and in Management's Discussion and Analysis for the period ended September 30, 2012, under the headings "Dividends", "Capital Expenditures", "Decommissioning Liability", "Liquidity and Capital Resources" and "Outlook." The actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of the material risks set forth under the noted headings, which include, but are not limited to: financial risk of marketing reserves at an acceptable price given market conditions; volatility in market prices for oil and natural gas; delays in business operations, pipeline restrictions, blowouts; the risk of carrying out operations with minimal environmental impact; industry conditions including changes in laws and regulations including the adoption of new environmental laws and regulations and changes in how they are interpreted and enforced; uncertainties associated with estimating oil and natural gas reserves; economic risk of finding and producing reserves at a reasonable cost; uncertainties associated with partner plans and approvals; operational matters related to non-operated properties; increased competition for, among other things, capital, acquisitions of reserves and undeveloped lands; competition for and availability of qualified personnel or management; incorrect assessments of the value of acquisitions and exploration and development programs; unexpected geological, technical, drilling, construction and processing problems; availability of insurance; fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rates; stock market volatility; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions, including the Ute Acquisition and the other consolidation acquisitions; general economic, market and business conditions; uncertainties associated with regulatory approvals; uncertainty of government policy changes; uncertainties associated with credit facilities and counterparty credit risk; and changes in income tax laws, tax laws, crown royalty rates and incentive programs relating to the oil and gas industry.
Barrels of oil equivalent ("boes") may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf : 1 Bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
Additional information on these and other factors that could affect Crescent Point's operations or financial results are included in Crescent Point's reports on file with Canadian securities regulatory authorities. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this forward-looking information, which is given as of the date it is expressed herein or otherwise and Crescent Point undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required to do so pursuant to applicable law.

THE SQL Server Blog Spot on the Web
One year after the release of SQL Server 2012 I see the growing demand for DAX. There are two reasons for that: an higher number of PowerPivot users started to build more complex data models, and SSAS Tabular is starting to be adopted by a larger number of companies, with and without a previous experience on former versions of Analysis Services.
For this reasons we decided to offer a first public edition of our Advanced DAX Workshop, a training on DAX that is aimed at Advanced PowerPivot users and Analysis Services developers that want to master the DAX language. Up to now, we offered this course only for private classes, because of the limited demand, but now there is enough interest and adoption to justify an open class.
The goal of this DAX training is learning to write DAX expressions for measures and calculated columns, DAX queries for reporting needs, read DAX query plans and optimize DAX formulas. The course is a three-day workshop that includes many hands-on lab sessions, with exercises that will guide you in the learning process of the more advanced DAX concepts, enabling you to master the writing of DAX code.
The course will be in London on May 13-15, 2013. There are direct flights with a huge number of countries and cities, also outside of Europe. We do not expect to deliver other editions of this course before other 5-6 months, so don't lose the chance to attend this intensive DAX master course. I will be the teacher in this edition and Chris Webb will assist me in organization with Technitrain. So don't wait, early bird discount will expire in a few days, register now and join us in London!
Anyway we can join online in Real Time?
Please come to Orange County, CA (Irvine) with this class.
Hey there,
I'd also be very interested in an online work-shop.
If not, you should visit germany once again.
Serge, Matthaeus,
thanks for the feedback.
We will evaluate how to manage workshops online.
The problem is the effectiveness of the mix between lecture and hands-on-labs. It's impossible to do that online and the best balance we've found until now is having 3-4 hours of online lesson and exercises that should be completed before the next day. However, packing all the exercises together is now always a good idea and you lack the possibility to consolidate the concepts just after the theory by making practices with the hands-on-labs, which are business scenarios in which you have to write the correct DAX formula. Having teacher around may help you when you go in a wrong direction and this is really hard to obtain in a virtual class.
For Europe, we will deliver the DAX Workshop in London in this semester because it can be reached from many countries with a direct flight. Depending on the demand, we'll propose other editions of the DAX Workshop in other countries, but we will start considering this for next Fall-Winter season.
For US, we are considering how to run classes there and I hope we'll have some good news after the summer...
Thank you again: your suggestions may help us accelerating the process of proposing new classes.
