The Development In The Field Of DVR Systems
As years have passed by the question of whether we are safe or not is a question and will always remain so but solving it is never a permanent solution as being safe is never possible completely, yet taking the precautions to being a bit closer to security is our job. It is really in our hands that we can have the precautions for the unwanted things that may happen and we can stay away from those confusions and problems though. There have been various methods and trials that the technology experts have come up with and they have shown us ideas of innovative objects which will help us and our belongings to be safe from the on lookers and attackers that will definitely try to make the things move better with time and have the control over crime and burglaries. The major improvement in this field is with the initiation of the DVR systems in the daily life.
These are the machines that will have the case of cameras set up at various places which needs to be looked out for and have the screens and monitors that will show what is happening at the spot live. Just like the news that you get from your TVs live directly. This will not only give you a satisfaction of the safe data and belongings that you have but also can be more reliable for the systems than on the humans as there are chances that the humans may get tempted but machines would not, however there are measures that these cameras can be deactivated by expert criminals and move for the theft but that too has many solutions like the touch sensors or blast sensors. If the DVR systems are hampered with and mishandled then these tend to give out strong sounds that will alert the people around that the cameras and played with and something wrong has just happened or about to result. This is an important part when installing the cameras, as for nowadays the thieves have gone sharp and they can get into any activities to fulfill their thoughts and thus the sensors would be of a great help for being aware of their misdeeds.
The spread of the DVR systems all over the world is seriously gorgeous and worth the money spent on it. The systems are well developed and updated from time to time. This will get the expert criminals out of the way as well, as the adoption of technology takes time to get into the negative uses.

login: no pam_unix.so found
Bramble Whisper <lileding <at> gmail.com>
hi all I made a FreeSBIE 2.0 iso from freebsd ports, the system is 7.0 and ports is current. I use nearly the MINIMAL config with NO_PAM, NO_KLDLOAD and NO_MODULES commented. Also, I use my minimal kernel which can boot my box. Now, the iso can boot with cd9660, geom_label, geom_uzip, geom_md added manually during loader time. However, I cannot login, and it shows an error with "login: in openpam_load_module(): no pam_unix.so found". I've checked the uzip/usr.uzip and found lots of pam_xxx.so including pam_unix.so in lib. Then I build a iso with NO_COMPRESSEDFS but still in vain. Do I miss anything ? -- best wishes whisper :) -- -- FreeSBIE mailing list (http://www.freesbie.org)

Hi Guys,
When I type something in my command bar, it doesn't autocomplete anymore.
Is that an option I can tick on the options?
Many thanks,

Hi Arthur-if no autocomplete is working at all, check OPtions > Appearance page > Autocomplete commands. If some are working (from Rhino itself) and plug-in commands not, that suggests the plug-ins are not loading. Note that there are a number of commands that appear to be Rhino commands but which in fact are in plug-ins, so if only some commands do not autocomplete (do they work at all if you type the entire command?) please tell me what some of them are, I'll try to sort out which plug-in is involved.

42.173947 -71.110447 View WebsiteI learned so much!. I took the CPR for healthcare providers and the four hours went by so fast because the instructor made it fun and interesting. I needed a refresher about cardiac anatomy and functions. This instructor is so knowledgeable and provides so many good examples that the information just stays with you without any difficulty. I will go back again and again. I'm thinking of taking another course that I don't even need for my job just because I had such a good learning experience at CPR World.
Great Place to take ACLS and PALS. I learned so much. These were the 2 classes that changed it for me. I now understand the body, how to run a CODE and save lives adults and pediatric. It was comfortable, non-intimidating nice environment. Free catered lunch and snacks. A lot of equipment and cool defibrillators. Now I can get a RN job. Easy location- right off 95 or 93.
The best ACLS and BLS Class. I recertified both ACLS and BLS in one day. Fun, free lunch and snacks all day. Great equipment and the teacher was funny and made it easy to understand. Easy to find too- convenient location. I will tell me friends in health care.

7400 series
The 7400 series of transistor-transistor logic (TTL) integrated circuits are historically important as the first widespread family of TTL integrated circuit logic.[1][2] It was used to build the mini and mainframe computers of the 1960s and 1970s. Several generations of pin-compatible descendants of the original family have since become de facto standard electronic components.
Contents |
Overview [edit]
The 7400 series contains hundreds of devices that provide everything from basic logic gates, flip-flops, and counters, to special purpose bus transceivers and Arithmetic Logic Units (ALU). Specific functions are described in a list of 7400 series integrated circuits.
Today, surface-mounted CMOS versions of the 7400 series are used in various applications in electronics and for glue logic in computers and industrial electronics. The original through-hole devices in dual in-line packages (DIP/DIL), which were the mainstay of the industry for many decades, are very useful for rapid breadboard-prototyping and education and so remain available from most manufacturers. The fastest types and very low voltage versions are typically surface-mount only, however.
The first part number in the series, the 7400, designates a device containing four two-input NAND gates. Each gate uses two pins for input and one pin for its output, and the remaining two contacts supply power (+5 V) and connect the ground. This part was made in various packages including flat pack, plastic or ceramic dual in-line packages with 14 pins, and in surface mount packages as well. Additional numbers and letters in a full part number identify the package and other variations.
While designed as a family of digital logic, some TTL chips were used in analog circuits like Schmitt triggers. Like the 4000 series, the newer CMOS versions of the 7400 series are also usable as analog amplifiers using negative feedback (similar to operational amplifiers with only an inverting input).
The former Soviet Union manufactured the K155ЛA3 which was pin-compatible with the 7400 part available in the United States, except for using a metric spacing of 2.5mm between pins instead of the 1/10"-based (2.54mm) spacing used in the west.[3]
7400 series derivative families [edit]
7400 series parts were constructed using bipolar transistors, forming what is referred to as transistor–transistor logic or TTL. Newer series, more or less compatible in function and logic level with the original parts, use CMOS technology or a combination of the two (BiCMOS). Originally the bipolar circuits provided higher speed but consumed more power than the competing 4000 series of CMOS devices. Bipolar devices are also limited to a fixed power supply voltage, typically 5 V, while CMOS parts often support a range of supply voltages.
Milspec-rated devices for use in extended temperature conditions are available as the 5400 series. Texas Instruments also manufactured radiation-hardened devices with the prefix RSN, and the company offered beam-lead bare dies for integration into hybrid circuits with a BL prefix designation. [4]
Regular speed TTL parts were also available for a time in the 6400 series - these had an extended industrial temperature range of −40 C to +85 C. While companies such as Mullard listed 6400-series compatible parts in 1970 data sheets,[5] by 1973 there was no mention of the 6400 family in the Texas Instruments TTL Data Book. Some companies have also offered industrial extended temperature range variants using the regular 7400 series part numbers with a prefix or suffix to indicate the temperature grade.
As integrated circuits in the 7400 series were made in different technologies, usually compatibility was retained with the original TTL logic levels and power supply voltages. An integrated circuit made in CMOS is not a TTL chip since it uses field-effect transistors (FETs) and not bipolar junction transistors, but similar part numbers are retained to identify similar logic functions and electrical (power and I/O voltage) compatibility in the different subfamilies. Over 40 different logic subfamilies use this standardized part number scheme.[6]
- Bipolar
- 74 - the "standard TTL" logic family had no letters between the "74" and the specific part number.
- 74L - Low power (compared to the original TTL logic family), very slow
- H - High speed (still produced but generally superseded by the S-series, used in 1970s era computers)
- S - Schottky (obsolete)
- LS - Low Power Schottky
- AS - Advanced Schottky
- ALS - Advanced Low Power Schottky
- F - Fast (faster than normal Schottky, similar to AS)
- C - CMOS 4–15 V operation similar to buffered 4000 (4000B) series
- HC - High speed CMOS, similar performance to LS, 12 ns
- HCT - High speed, compatible logic levels to bipolar parts
- AC - Advanced CMOS, performance generally between S and F
- AHC - Advanced High-Speed CMOS, three times as fast as HC
- ALVC - Low voltage - 1.65 to 3.3 V, Time Propagation Delay (TPD) 2 ns[7]
- AUC - Low voltage - 0.8 to 2.7 V, TPD < 1.9 email@example.com V[7]
- FC - Fast CMOS, performance similar to F
- LCX - CMOS with 3 V supply and 5 V tolerant inputs
- LVC - Low voltage – 1.65 to 3.3 V and 5 V tolerant inputs, tpd < 5.5 email@example.com V, tpd < 9 firstname.lastname@example.com V[7]
- LVQ - Low voltage - 3.3 V
- LVX - Low voltage - 3.3 V with 5 V tolerant inputs
- VHC - Very High Speed CMOS - 'S' performance in CMOS technology and power
- BiCMOS
- BCT - BiCMOS, TTL-compatible input thresholds, used for buffers
- ABT - Advanced BiCMOS, TTL-compatible input thresholds, faster than ACT and BCT
Many parts in the CMOS HC, AC, and FC families are also offered in "T" versions (HCT, ACT, and FCT) which have input thresholds that are compatible with both TTL and 3.3 V CMOS signals. The non-T parts have conventional CMOS input thresholds. The ACTQ family introduced by Fairchild utilizes Quiet Series technology to guarantee quiet output switching and improved dynamic threshold performance. FACT Quiet Series features GTO output control and undershoot corrector in addition to a split ground bus for superior performance. The 74H family is the same basic design as the 7400 family with resistor values reduced. This reduced the typical propagation delay from 9 ns to 6 ns but increased the power consumption. The 74H family provided a number of unique devices for CPU designs in the 1970s. Many designers of military and aerospace equipment used this family over a long period and as they need exact replacements, this family is still produced by Lansdale Semiconductor.[8]
The 74S family, using Schottky circuitry, uses more power than the 74, but is faster. The 74LS family of ICs is a lower-power version of the 74S family, with slightly higher speed but lower power dissipation than the original 74 family; it became the most popular variant once it was widely available.
The 74F family was introduced by Fairchild Semiconductor and adopted by other manufacturers; it is faster than the 74, 74LS and 74S families.
Through the late 1980s and 1990s newer versions of this family were introduced to support the lower operating voltages used in newer CPU devices.
History [edit]
Although the 7400 series was the first de facto industry standard TTL logic family to be second-sourced by several semiconductor companies, there were earlier TTL logic families such as the Sylvania SUHL (Sylvania Universal High-level Logic) family, Motorola MC4000 MTTL family (not to be confused with RCA CD4000 CMOS), the National Semiconductor DM8000 family, Fairchild 9300 series, and the Signetics 8200 family.
The 7400N quad NAND gate was the first product in the series.
The 5400 and 7400 series were used in many popular minicomputers in the seventies and early eighties. The DEC PDP series 'minis' used the 74181 ALU as the main computing element in the CPU. Other examples were the Data General Nova series and Hewlett-Packard 21MX, 1000, and 3000 series.
Hobbyists and students equipped with wire wrap tools, a 'breadboard' and a 5-volt power supply could also experiment with digital logic referring to how-to articles in Byte magazine and Popular Electronics which featured circuit examples in nearly every issue. In the early days of large-scale IC development, a prototype of a new large-scale integrated circuit might have been developed using TTL chips on several circuit boards, before committing to manufacture of the target device in IC form. This allowed simulation of the finished product and testing of the logic before the availability of software simulations of integrated circuits.
In 1965, typical quantity-one pricing for the SN5400 (military grade, in ceramic welded flat-pack) was around 22 USD.[9] As of 2007, individual commercial-grade chips in molded epoxy (plastic) packages can be purchased for approximately 0.25 USD each, depending on the particular chip. Purchased in bulk the price per unit falls even lower.
Part numbering scheme [edit]
The part numbers for 7400 series logic devices often use the following naming convention, though specifics vary between manufacturers.
- First, although sometimes omitted, a two or three letter prefix which indicates the manufacturer of the device (e.g. SN for Texas Instruments, DM for National Semiconductor) although these codes are no longer closely associated with a single manufacturer, for example Fairchild Semiconductor manufactures parts with MM and DM prefixes, and none.
- Two digits, where "74" indicates a commercial temperature range device and "54" indicates a military temperature range. Historically: "64" indicated a short lived series with an intermediate 'industrial' temperature range.
- Up to four letters describing the logic subfamily, as listed above (e.g. "LS" or "HCT").
- Two or more digits assigned for each device, e.g. 00 for a quad 2-input NAND gate. There are hundreds of different devices in each family. The allocation of device numbers (and, with a few exceptions, the pin-outs) of the original 7400 family was carried across to the later families, and new numbers allocated for new functions, plus some of the competing CD4000 numbers and pin-outs were included over time. There is no pattern to the allocation of these numbers. The function and pin-out of the chip is nearly always the same for the same device number regardless of subfamily manufacturer – exceptions are discussed below.
- Additional suffix letters and numbers may be attached to indicate the package type, quality grade, or other information, but this varies widely by manufacturer.
For example SN74ALS245N means this is a device probably made by Texas Instruments (SN), it is a commercial temperature range TTL device (74), it is a member of the "advanced low-power Schottky" family (ALS), and it is a bi-directional eight-bit buffer (245) in a plastic through-hole DIP package (N).
Many logic families maintain a consistent use of the device numbers, as an aid to designers. Often a part from a different 74x00 subfamily could be substituted ("drop-in replacement") in a circuit, with the same function and pin-out yet more appropriate characteristics for an application (perhaps speed or power consumption), which was a large part of the appeal of the 74C00 series over the competing CD4000B series, for example. But there are a few exceptions where incompatibilities (mainly in pin-out) across the subfamilies occurred, such as:
- some flat-pack devices (e.g. 7400W) and surface-mount devices,
- some of the faster CMOS series (for example 74AC)
- a few low-power TTL devices (e.g. 74L86, 74L9 and 74L95) have a different pin-out than the regular (or even 74LS) series part.[10]
- five versions of the 74x54 (4-Wide AND-OR-INVERT gates IC), namely 7454(N), 7454W, 74H54, 74L54W and 74L54N/74LS54, are different from each other in pin-out and/or function![11]).
Second sources in Europe and the Eastern Bloc [edit]
Some manufacturers such as Mullard and Siemens had pin-compatible TTL parts but with a completely different numbering scheme, however, data sheets identified the 7400-compatible number as an aid to recognition.
At the time the 7400 series was being made, some European manufacturers (that traditionally followed the Pro Electron naming convention) such as Philips/Mullard produced a series of TTL integrated circuits with part names beginning FJ. Some examples of FJ series are:
- FJH101 (=7430) Single 8-input NAND gate,
- FJH131 (=7400) Quadruple 2-input NAND gate,
- FJH181 (=7454N or J) 2+2+2+2 input AND-OR-NOT gate.
The Soviet Union started manufacturing TTL ICs with 7400 series pin-out in late 1960s and early 1970s. Part numbering is different from the Western series:
- the technology modifications were considered different series, and were identified by different numbered prefixes - 155 series is equivalent to plain 74, 131 series is 74H, 158 series is 74L, 531 series is 74S, 555 series is 74LS, and 1530/1531/1533 are 74F/74AS/74ALS respectively. CMOS elements with TTL pin-out are also available, for example 1564 series is equivalent to 74HC.
- the function of the unit is described with a two-letter code followed by a number
- the first letter represents the functional group - logical, triggers, counters, multiplexers, etc.
- the second letter shows the functional subgroup making the distinction between logical NAND and NOR, D- and JK-triggers, decimal and binary counters, etc.
- the number distinguishes variants with different number of inputs, or different number of elements within a die - ЛА1/ЛА2/ЛА3 (LA1/LA2/LA3) are 2 four-input / 1 eight-input / 4 two-input NAND elements respectively (equivalent to 7420/7430/7400)
Before July 1974 the two letters from the functional description were inserted after the first digit of the series. Examples: К1ЛБ551 and К155ЛА1 (7420), К1ТМ552 and К155ТМ2 (7474) are the same ICs made at different times.
Clones of the plain 7400 series were also made in other Eastern Bloc countries[12]
- Poland and Czechoslovakia used the 7400 numbering scheme with manufacturer prefixes UCY and MH respectively. Examples: UCY7400, and MH7400.
- Hungary also used the 7400 numbering scheme but with manufacturer suffix - 7400 is marked as 7400APC.
- Romania used trimmed 7400 numbering with own manufacturing prefix CDB. Example: CDB4123E is 74123.
- East Germany also used trimmed 7400 numbering without manufacturer prefix or suffix. The prefix D (or E) designates digital IC, and not the manufacturer. Example: D174 is 7474. 74LS clones were designated by the prefix DL; e.g. DL000 = 74LS00. In later years East German made clones were also available with standard 74* numbers, usually for export. [13]
No information is available for technology modifications (74H, 74LS, etc.) manufactured outside USSR.

The Mets won a game yesterday and won a game today, so that's two in a row. If they win one tomorrow, that's called a winning streak. It was happened before. So will they jack it up a little? (All apologies to Lou Brown.)

Searching for Rays of Hope
So, the Mets have lost 6 games in a row, and have fallen to 14-23, 6.5 games behind the NL East leading Atlanta Braves here on May 16th. Besides Matt Harvey, the starting rotation has been horrible, besides Bobby Parnell, the bullpen has been unreliable, and the Mets' offense, which lit up opponents the first two weeks of the season, has gone colder than Jeffery Loria's Grinch-like heart.
This has left even the most loyal and upbeat Mets fans in a funk, and has even prompted some to ask for divine intervention. But it can't be this bad all year, can it?
Instead of another Mets blog post about how bad this team is, let's try to find some rays of hope in this otherwise gloomy pallor of baseball.

Shaun Marcum finally made it beyond the fifth inning. In fact, he pitched into the seventh. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to garner a win.

Often, baseball is a game won by the team that doesn't beat itself. The Mets provided an example of that type of loss.

Mets Sign Ankiel, Starts Tonight
Rick Ankiel already helped the Mets once – during the 2000 playoffs. Now they'll hope he can help them again (in a more traditional sense).
The Mets signed recent Astros castoff Rick Ankiel today.
Terry Collins said the lefty-hitting Ankiel and righty-hitting Juan Lagares will platoon in center field. That's a blow to Jordany Valdespin, who Collins said may play some second base if Daniel Murphy continues to struggle.
Apart from his arm, Ankiel doesn't provide much of an upgrade in the outfield. His last really good offensive season came in 2008, when he hit 28 home runs. This year, he has a .715 OPS which is less than that of the other left-handed hitting outfielders Mike Baxter and Valdespin.
Looks like Sandy Alderson is trying to catch lightning in a bottle. Or maybe the team was secretly hijacked by Omar Minaya.
Andrew Brown was optioned to Triple-A.
So there's that.
Ike Davis is the Key to Mets Offense
OK, you're probably reading the headline and thinking, "more like 'Seven Guys Not Slumping at the Same Time is the Key to Mets Offense.'" Yes, the Mets are not exactly the reincarnation of the 1927 Yankees.
They don't have an ideal leadoff hitter or a steady center fielder or right fielder. Ruben Tejada has been nearly as unspectacular with the bat has he has been with the glove this year, and Daniel Murphy, after a hot start, has slumped mightily. On April 25th, he was batting .346/.388/.538. Since then, he's hit only .130/.161/.167.
It seems in late April, everyone went into a slump following their hot start. But the Mets need a stabilizing presence in the middle of the lineup to mitigate poor performance from the rest of the team – let's say…a power-hitting left-handed bat. Someone like Ike Davis.
Mets Pitching Prospect: Steven Matz
Steven Matz has endured one of the most stressful and unexpected journeys of any player in the New York Mets farm system. Selected in the 2nd round in the 2009 MLB Draft, it's taken Matz four years to pitch in full-season ball. But he's finally here.
After Tommy John surgery and two years of rehab, Matz debuted with Kingsport in 2012. Matz impressed in 6 starts, striking out 34 in 29 innings of work, while keeping opponents hitting .158. On the bad side, he was prone to giving up the walk, walking 17 in his limited innings. Matz was temporarily shut down with arm troubles and understands that the 2013 season is important for him.
"I just want to play the whole season healthy," said Matz. "And keep my walks down. Those are my two main goals."
Walks were a concern while Matz was with Kingsport, but he seems to have fixed the issue at Savannah. Matz and the Mets decided recently that they wanted to scrap the curveball. "The [curveball] wasn't consistent. I just wanted a breaking ball that I can throw more for a strike."
Former Cy Young winner and current Savannah Sand Gnats pitching coach Frank Viola went more in-depth about the scraping of the curveball and how the "slurve" benefits Matz.
"The organization, him, and I. Basically what it is is like a slurve, a hard curveball, but we're calling it a slider. It's got late break, depth, but it goes according to his arm slot with a fastball and change-up. It's the absolute perfect pitch to throw at the arm slot he is at," said Viola. "And he can throw it two ways, as a strike pitch or a put away pitch. The more he throws it, the better he develops it, the more he can put two together and really make that a very advantageous pitch."
Matz admits his best off-speed pitch is his change-up. In his outing on April 26 against West Virginia, Matz said he threw 17 changeups. "I don't really have a true strikeout pitch," said Matz. "I can get a lot of guys to chase on a high fastball."
In that West Virginia start, Matz struggled to stay in the game. He was yanked after reaching his pitch count in 4.1 IP, allowing two earned runs on four hits, while talking two and striking out three. Frank Viola believes that start was the start of a new side to Matz.
"The other night was the first night I saw any resemblance of anger, feistiness, what have you. He had to leave, came out in the fifth inning, and had the no-decision because he didn't complete the five innings because of the pitch count," explained Viola. "And he threw the glove down, said a couple of choice words, but it was the first time I saw a little fire in his belly, which personally, is a great sign in my opinion."
"I know it's there and you have to realize, he's played professional ball for 2 ½ years but he only has 10 professional starts. He's had some experience but he doesn't have a lot of experience from the mound itself. So every time on the mound is a learning experience and I think by the all-star break you are going to see a completely different Steven Matz."
Viola hinted that Matz may not be around when the All-Star game comes around. Matz could be on the fast track to St. Lucie, but it all depends on whether the lefty can stay healthy. "I really believe he's that close to really putting it together," said Viola.
"Just to mentally keep it together with all the crap he's gone through is pretty tough…You're exactly right, many people wouldn't be able to do that. He's maintained it, he's learned from it, and he's using it to his advantage now."

Just Call Him Up Already
In case you missed it, Zack Wheeler had another great outing on Saturday night. Wheeler, the New York Mets' top pitching prospect, threw 7 1/3 innings of two-run ball and struck out seven on Saturday for Triple-A Las Vegas. He gave up six hits and walked one.
According to ESPN, over his last three starts, Wheeler has thrown a combined 20 innings, surrendering just three earned runs . He's struck out 19 in that span, allowing 14 hits. Most importantly, he has walked only three batters. Something has clicked.
It's time to bring him up. I have run out of adjectives to describe the team's play: terms like dismal, boring, depressing can only be used so many times before they lose their impact. This year's team was given little chance to do anything before the season even began, but I don't think anyone really realized just how bad things would get so quickly. Wheeler is certainly not the answer to all of the Mets' woes, but together, perhaps he and Matt Harvey can provide somewhat of a firewall, the way Tom Seaver and Jerry Koosman did for the team back in 1968. Zack isn't doing the Mets any good in Las Vegas.
And yes, I disparaged him somewhat in my last post, but I think Wilmer Flores should get called up also.
In their place, I would send Ike Davis and Jordany Valdespin down. Let Ike hit his next 25 homeruns in the PCL so they can trade him next winter. I say this only as a distant observer, but I wonder if being the son of a major leaguer and now playing in the big leagues himself has gone to Ike's head. I am nowhere near the clubhouse, but he seems somewhat sullen and I wonder if there isn't an entitlement mentality at work here. Keith Hernandez did hint at that a few years ago. That was a terrible at bat he had in the eight inning of Sunday's loss. Remember when the Pirates offered the Mets Sterling Marte for him?
Valdespin was hung out to dry this past weekend. He has a lot of talent and I hope that whoever is running the club next spring can reach him. Those long bus trips in the PCL may give him some time to ponder turning over a new leaf.
Set up a Daniel Murphy/Justin Turner platoon at first and let Flores take some reps at second. Since the Mets aren't going to hit at all this year, I suggest going with defense in the outfield; that means Juan Lagares in center and Mike Baxter in right. I would put Murphy/Turner in the two hole, David Wright in the three spot, Lucas Duda cleanup. For the remainder, whoever is hot can lead off (imagine if that is John Buck!) with the rest of the lineup balanced right/left as best as possible. I don't think this translates into winning baseball, but it might be watchable, which I would take at this point.
What do you think? Time to bring up Wheeler? Got any other (reasonable) moves in mind? Sound off below.

The Colorado Department of Transportation will begin a project on Monday, Sept. 17, to reduce the potential for rockfall on SH 133 over McClure Pass. The rockfall mitigation consists clearing rock debris from the roadside ditch, scaling rock from the hillside (bringing rocks down with air bags inserted behind loose rock and also bringing them down by hand), installing rock reinforcement (with dowels and also a concrete mixture), and anchoring and installing wire mesh (or cable netting) to contain smaller rocks.

So many things happened that last evening with the disciples. On the very night in which our Lord was betrayed and drug off to the authorities like a common criminal. A new commandment and a new observance were among the most precious things we have recorded for us that evening. The "Upper Room Discourse" recorded only by the Apostle John has always been one my favorite passages of all the Bible.
The center of everything is the supper and the words Jesus spoke to his disciples…

This mug shot, from Lavergne's July 5 arrest for aggravated kidnapping and murder, reveals a scar on his neck. Lavergne claims he was attacked by an unknown assailant May 19, the same day Mickey Shunick went missing. |
The convicted sex offender, who on July 5 was arrested for aggravated kidnapping and first degree murder in the case of 21-year-old UL Lafayette student Mickey Shunick, claims he was attacked by the white male without warning in the New Orleans area the same day Shunick went missing. According to Hyer's account and the initial incident report, Lavergne was stabbed several times in the chest, back, neck and hand with a "knife/cutting instrument." Lavergne also claimed the suspect stole his wallet, which contained his driver's license (Lavergne, Lafayette police later confirmed, tried to alter his license to disguise the fact that he is sex offender) and $40. Lavergne told Hyer he drove around until he found Ocshner Hospital.
When the officer asked if he had any recollection of the area of the incident, Lavergne said he did not. No nearby street names, building shapes, landmarks/significant structures, "or any other identifiable features of his surroundings," Hyer writes in the report. Lavergne told Hyer he was in town visiting a friend and was heading home after being released from the hospital. Hyer also notes that Lavergne told him he'd just spent two hours explaining to detectives with the New Orleans Police Department that he had no recollection of the area in which he was allegedly attacked. NOPD was also called to the hospital because Lavergne could not or would not tell anyone where the attack occurred.
"I attempted to gain further information from [him] in reference to him being attacked," Hyer says. "However the more questions I asked, the less [Lavergne] began to provide."
MAY 17 Here's a column from James Gill, this time in the Advocate. Gill, who has jumped ship from the Picayune, writes about the absurdity of dueling polls in this post. The numbers are so wildly different, it is obvious that both sides are "cooking the books," he writes. In particular, he looks at Sen. Mary Landrieu, and how her recent actions in DC have been received by those polled. Gill's acerbic, amusing prose is a welcome addition to a paper so conservative as to be occasionally lacking in personality.
MAY 17 Blogger Tom Aswell continues delivering bombshells about the state education department and Gov. Jindal's education "reform" efforts. In this post, he reports that students in the Shreveport area have been signed up for a charter school without their knowledge or consent. Most interesting to Aswell is how this Texas-based charter (with ties to GOP types) got the personal student information it has, if the students didn't give it.
MAY 17 This post by JR Ball in the Baton Rouge Business Report is an interesting tongue-in-cheek look at recent Baton Rouge economic development efforts. Among the items he examines is the idea that gaining a Costco makes BR a "world-class city." (Really? All you need is a different brand of Sam's? MK!) This effort, and other recent ones, are all built on the taxpayer's back, with tax zones, tax incentives and tax rebates, Ball writes.
MAY 17 Blogger CB Forgotston is critical of the legislature's reliance on a revenue-estimating committee's decision to include projected tax amnesty income in this year's forecast. That's a problem, CB posts, because the deadline for these people to pay their taxes is June 30, 2014. So when do you think these people who haven't paid taxes in years are going to pay their taxes? Surely not before June 30, and that means the money won't be there for this year's budget, he argues.
MAY 17 Here's an interesting blog out of California by a Hollywood writer, attorney and academic named Brian Alan Lane. He blogs about higher ed, and was a whistle-blower in a scandal over false credentials. In this post, he takes aim at LSU's new top dog, King Alexander. It's convoluted and a little confusing, but it sure makes Alexander a lot more interesting than he was yesterday.
MAY 17 Blogger Robert Mann writes about the LSU Board's refusal to allow Dr. Fred Cerise to testify before the legislature about Gov. Jindal's plan to close down all the state's charity hospitals and dump the poor on the private system. It's hard to imagine anyone more qualified than Cerise to testify about that, so why would anyone try to prevent him doing so? Mann thinks it is because the powers that be aren't interested in hearing any truth about the plan.
MAY 17 This post on the Louisiana Sinkhole Bugle, a blog that notes developments in the Bayou Corne and Jefferson Island salt domes, talks about a proposed expansion of the salt dome storage under Lake Peigneur in Iberia Parish. Residents are working against it for several reasons, including two biggies: the sinkhole disaster in Bayou Corne and the continuing, unexplained bubbling on the surface of the Lake.
MAY 17 NOLA police arrested more people Thursday accused of either being involved in the Mother's Day shooting or hiding the suspect afterward, this Gambit story reports. The NOLA police chief said he suspects the whole thing was gang-related and throws out a challenge to the gangs: he's got informants now, he says, and he knows a lot more than the gangs want him to know. The people who live in the neighborhoods terrorized by gangs are ready to talk, he says.

Hite takes over a district burdened with a huge budget deficit, labor strife and a mediocre record, at best, in educating kids.
Hite makes $250,000 in salary and has an array of other perks in his current position. So how much should he be paid to run the Philadelphia schools? Should he have a driver? Should his severance or buyout provisions be Ackerman-ish?

Chris Hemsworth – Thor
Women stumbled into Thor the way that drunk men inadvertently stumble into the Ladies Room. That said, terms like "The Rainbrow Bridge" and "The Frost Giants of Jotunheim" sound admittedly less nerdy when uttered by a twelve-foot-tall Aussie with icy eyes and blonde hair that flows as if it spilled out of Winne the Pooh's honey pot. Needless to say, they walked more willingly into The Avengers two years later.

As we finish out Earth Week 2013, it's time to talk about the weather. If you've been noticing that weather events seem to be getting more severe, it's not just you.
The annual number of billion-dollar disasters in the United States – earthquakes, floods, fires, hurricanes and more – has tripled since the 1980s, from two to about six per year. And 2011 was a barn-burner, with 14 separate $1 billion-plus weather events. That's like buying 4,500 new homes at the median price for every major hurricane, tornado outburst, flood and drought. Losses from U.S. natural disasters in 2011 topped $60 billion. The trend continued into 2012, with Hurricane Sandy flooding signifigant portions of the east coast.
We've got an animated infographic for you that maps some of the trouble. Be sure to click around and see everything. And as you probably know, the debate over causes and culprits is as fierce as the climate itself. Dig into "What Do Others Say?" for a cross-section of ideas, then join the discussion below. What do you think accounts for this trend?
