NO. i Lightning Strikes JESSE LEIGH MAKES GOOD ANOTHER VICTORY FOR PIERZ Montana Exchange—In Jesse,: A number of fans went to the MURDERER GETS LIFE The self-confessed murderer | A NEW BAR..ER Joseph Tschida last Saturday Three Piaces Daring* the heavy thunder-, storm of the fourth of July night! lightning struck Joseph Fleck-. ensteir.'s house and damaged it! to a considerable extent, but none ofthe family felt even as much as a slight shock'. Joseph says it seems as if every part of the house had been struck at the same time. Both chimneys were damaged, shingles, roofboards and sidings on opposites of the house were rip pad and splintered and a- bout a dozen windowpai.es were shattered. The vagaries or near-miracles oft performed by the discharge of atmospheric electricity, were beautifully exemplified in this instance. The entire lower crosspiece of an upper window sash was ripped away, but the two panes were left intact. The damage is fully covered by insurance. hi. During the same storm, light-! ning struck the house of Joseph j Herwesin Buckman. The bedstead in which Mrs. Herwes was sleeping was splintered and its ; occupant was hurled onto the, floor. Aside from a slight shock, Mrs. Herwes did not suffer from the experience. About six o'clock* in the morning of the fourth, lightning struck a hayrack in Fred Wol Ices' yard In Lastrup. Albert Keller, who was about four rods from the rack did not feel the shock, but Joseph Blake, about a quarter of a mile away, who had just got up and was lacing his shoes at the open front window, felt it distinctly. Jos. says, his lingers became so benumbed that it was several minutes before he couid continue lacing his shoes.

Up to about the sixth inning, the score stool 1 to 0 in favor of the visitors and it did look as if the winning streak had forsaken our team, but about the seventh it happened. Several cloud piercers to deep left by Paul, a line drive to Kapsner's wheat field by Leo Wermerskirchen and a beautiful bunt by J. N. Paust convinced the boys from the Foley town, that we had struck our gate, and they went to pieces. When they came to after the game they found the score 5 to 1 in favor of Pierz. Niert Smith of Platte played with our team and made a very favorable impression. He handled everything in his part of the field with confidence and a ball player like manner. There is no question but what he is a comer. His father, who was an enthusiastic witness of the game, says, the boy can do very good work in the pitcher's box. A SURPRISE PARTY life.

Reimer and son Clarence of Little Palls and Mr. Ingels of Wisconsin autoed out to Pierz Tuesday by way of Vawter, Dixville and mond Seibel of upper town and took possession Monday morning.

Last Sunday the Big Timber boys come down for a game and Jesse's curves proved absolutely unsolvable to them. For nine straight innings not one of them connected with the ball for a clean hit, the only score they made being made on an error in the second inning. Leigh had absolute control of the ball from start to finish and his pitching was a revalation to people who had never seen him work before. If lie can pitch such ball in every game he is a sure-enough winner and can travel in any company in this neck of the woods. The boys from the vicinity of the Glass-Lindsey project acknowledged that Leigh was altogether too strong for them, and that Columbus had a team that was rather above then- class. The manager of the visiting team stated before leaving town that he was goingtomake an effort among tlie business men of his town to secure sufficient inducements to capture Leigh for his team, and Columbus should get busy and see that this is not done. spent home i Christ Faust and wife Sunday afternoon at the of Mrs. Adolf Stumpf.

Join us next Thursday, the at 11 am Eastern time (4pm GMT) for our next chat "One ARM to Rule Them All." As more and more MCU companies expand their ARM offerings, will it become the dominant architecture? The advantge for developers is that one tool set and knowledge base can cover a wide variety of different devices, simplifying development. But in diversity there is also greater opportunity. So, will ARM come to dominate, and if so, will that be a good thing or a bad one?
Join us here to give us your view of ARM's expansion and debate the pros and cons of the One Architecture.
well, our hour is up. I had hoped that this time would allow more folks to join the chat but perhaps the change in schedule has been confusing.
mares.vit makes a good point below. With these eval boards being subsidized (we suspect) it makes development and prototyping systems look expensive by comparison. But having these boards be available for free or low cost does encourage folks to take a look at a new MCU that goes beyond simply reading data sheets.
Do folks find that the things they discover (good and bad) when using the eval or dev kits hold true when they use the base MCU in their full-featured design? Or are these boards creating unnecessary difficulty or glossing over some significant challenges?
So these five and ten dollar boards, would they be eval boards or dev boards under this definition?
We might want to separate out development boards from evaluation boards. We could think of eval boards as being very limited function and flexibility that you power up and run a few simple tests on, then put in a drawer and forget. Dev boards should be more flexible with more I/O brought out, with better support so one can actually get some code segments running on them for more detailed test and experiment.
Pricing seems to suggest that these low-cost boards are being subsidized by the company because they have marketing value. Would you like to see some kind of standard (or typical) pinout or feature set on these boards to help with making direct comparisons by re-using the support circuits you need to build?
One of the problems I see with some of these boards is that they are designed to highlight a specific feature of the MCU and sometimes for specific industries. The less general the board is, the more difficult to use it for more than cursory evaluation. Do other folks find that to be true?
I have heard comments in other forums about how some of these boards are not very helpful for development because of restricted debugging capability. Anyone agree?
I see a lot of folks are on the message boards, but no one is talking. Please say hi at least.
Good morning all. Hopefully I have picked a time when more of you can participate.
The problem arises when the experimenter compares prices of eval-boards which are aided and funded by chip manufacturer with prices of other development kits. He quite often thinks: Why are they so expensive?
"Just Toys" - you make that sound like a bad thing! I am sure most of us cut our teeth on projects that many would consider just toys. For me is it that boy-like wonder when I see my creation spring into life that spurs me on. The day I stop feeling like a boy in short pants when my gadget works (or even does something) is the day I stop making things!
Thursday, Dec. 6, 11am EST – Low-Cost Dev Boards: Just Toys? – There has been a tremendous outpouring of ultra-low cost development boards from MCU vendors in the last year or so. The cost is so low, one wonders if the vendors lose money on each one. But they sure are appealing for hobbyists and experimenters, students and entrepreneurs with limited budgets. But are they something that you can really use as a commercial developer? Would you create a real, for-market product using one of these boards, or perhaps a functional prototype? Or are they just to play with and "kick the tires" on an MCU? Tell us your thoughts and experiences.

Mr-Skill loves recycling because it avoids over-filling our tips, and it saves on the pocket too, when there is no need to buy new bricks. Assuming your bricks are re-usable after demolishing your old wall, he also suggests that they will make for a rustic and creative effect as you build a new wall.
All it needs is an investment of time and the application of a little elbow-grease – imagine the feeling of accomplishment when it all comes together. If you don't have the skills to lay bricks, you can still make a positive contribution by preparing the old bricks for re-use, while you find a bricklayer here on Mr-Skill.
Old for New
Set up a production line in a quiet spot in your yard. Then, examine each broken brick piece and decide which ones to keep, and those destined for the rubble pile. For those that are re-usable, it is a case of tidying up the broken face so that all sides are reasonably flat for the re-building job.
Using a pencil, mark up where you plan to cut out the damaged part of the old brick. Carry your marked line around all four faces to facilitate a flat face for the section you are about to level. Now you can go to work with your chisel, working methodically and safely – don't forget the goggles and gloves!
Laying out the New Course
If you have decided this bit is not for you, you will have to get a bricklaying quote – remember to ask for some discount because of all the preparation work you have already done. If you are going ahead yourself:
- Spread out the prepared mortar evenly along the foundations of the new wall using a trowel.
- Spread a decent layer of mortar on either side of the brick before laying it on the foundation – you could do this in your hand or once the brick's laid in position, making sure to anchor the bricks firmly in the mortar.
- Continue along the new brick course until you have completed a row, and so on. One of our London bricklayer chuckles that the beauty of using old bricks is that you can trim them to all sorts of shapes and sizes to fit all the nooks and crannies.
Mr-Skill adds that if you have reached this far without fuss, then you are a natural bricklayer, and you should look to joining up as a member!

Legality is a traditional normative concept to regulate the relationship between those in power and those subjected to that power. The principle of legality protects the citizen against the arbitrary use of power, or, more precisely, it demands a legal basis (which itself must be of a certain standard) to legitimize State action. Is legality under siege in Europe? The authors contributing to this provocative and important book answer this question in the affirmative.
Twenty-one outstanding European legal scholars expose a spectrum of ways in which the traditional legality principle is under pressure because of the creation of new legal orders, including that of the EU, and the interaction between these new orders and that of the State, combined with such factors as expertise driven governance, difficulties of international organizations to meet their objectives due to a lack of adequate powers, and lack of parliamentary control.
The question of whether the main functions of legality – legitimating, attributing and regulating the exercise of public authority – are still fulfilled in the context of the overlapping, interacting, and mutually dependent legal orders of the EU, the ECHR, and the Member States is at the background of all the essays in this volume. Recognizing that legality, if it is to survive, demands rigorous reconsideration of its scope and application, the authors interrogate not only such fundamental democratic issues as who has legitimate power to perform legislative acts and through these to exercise of public power over citizens, but also such urgent European problems as the following:
• the use of the precautionary principle in EU decision-making;
• the scope of the principle that the exercise of public authority must rest on an act of Parliament;
• the extent to which the EU can provide a legal basis for action of Member State authorities in the absence of such a basis within Member State legal orders;
• the constitutional position of independent 'regulators';
• the requirements that ECJ and ECHR case law impose on the exercise of public authority;
• whether legislative results are coherent in the sensitive area of equal treatment;
• transparency, legal certainty, enforceability, and implementation of EC Directives in the field of workers' involvement;
• new instruments as the Open Method of Coordination and the involvement of social partners in decision-making;
• the de facto harmonization of national criminal justice systems; and
• the prominent role of the EU in the field of data protection.
There can be little doubt that the issue of legality and to whom it applies – in a world in which the role of the modern State is changing profoundly – is a crucial one. It is highly important in the context of the ongoing discussion on the meaning of democracy and citizenship. This volume, with its clear message that reconsidering legality demands taking serious issue with the uncertainty engendered by the processes of globalization, will resonate profoundly among practitioners and policymakers in this time of momentous change.

I stopped at a Chevron with a mini mart tonight, big line for the cashier. One of the cashier asked the 8 to 10 year old kid behind me if he needed a basket for his items.... no problem yet. When it came to my turn I gave it to the 8 to 10 year old kid to go first, "go ahead you have a hand full." He had a big chocolate milk, a 16 oz pop, and two big boxes of candy (the movie theater kind of boxes) and a bag of chips.
So he get rung up and out pops a Oregon Trail Card (welfare, food stamps, &*^%&*&**&%'s) he also pops out a pieces of paper that had the PIN number on it and used it. I asked the cashier about it and she said she gets hot about it, but if she doesn't take it she gets fired, it's the same as money to the store.
My thoughts are at this point make many phone calls to the state government, most likely to no help, or ...... What... take it and live with it????
A kid using his moms or dads welfare to buy candy, chips and pop with my tax dollars!
What would you do?

It's no secret that we're quite proud of our co-sponsored Team Panther cycling team -- a talented assemblage of national champions and domestic U25 rising stars. To keep the riders comfortable and complete the team's handsome kit, we have the Team Panther Arm Warmers for those late spring morning starts and long training rides that extend long past summer's prime.
The Team Panther Arm Warmers are not only fierce, but are printed on the Giordana Roubaix Arm Warmers. Constructed from the patented Super Roubaix fabric, the warmers provide even and ample warmth due to the fleece backing and varying fabric density of the Roubaix design. This variation also allows the warmers to follow each arm's contours, and provides light, targeted compression where it's needed. The material choice and contoured design means that you can expect barely-there comfort and enhanced moisture wicking. For extra comfort, the Team Panther Arm Warmers have minimal seams and are flat-stitched. The hems are finished with a silicone bead to keep each warmer in place at all times.
The Team Panther Arm Warmers are available in sizes Small through X-Large.

Dan Wheldon succumbs to injuries in crash at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
By Dave Lewandowski, from the official web page of IZOD Indy Car Series
The sound of bagpipes playing "Amazing Grace" cut through the silence and accompanied drivers on their five-lap tribute to one of their own. Lining pit lane, IZOD IndyCar Series and track officials and crew members of every team stood at attention -- many weeping and comforting each other.
A run for $5 million via a promotion, which was to augment the celebration of the inaugural IZOD INDYCAR World Championships Presented by Honda, turned somber when INDYCAR CEO Randy Bernard announced that Dan Wheldon was pronounced dead at University Hospital from injuries suffered in a fiery 15-car crash on Lap 11 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Wheldon, of Emberton, England, was 33. He is survived by his wife, Susie, two young sons, his parents, Clive and Susie, and three siblings.
The 200-lap race to decide the series championship and rookie of the year was ruled incomplete by INDYCAR officials and championship points would include races through the Kentucky Indy 300 on Oct. 2. That gives the title to Dario Franchitti for the third consecutive year and the Sunoco Rookie of the Year title to James Hinchcliffe. The INDYCAR Championship Celebration, scheduled for Oct. 17 at the Mandalay Bay Hotel & Casino, was canceled.
After drivers were informed of Wheldon's passing, they voted to take the laps to honor the two-time Indianapolis 500 winner and 2005 IZOD IndyCar Series champion.
"I know this is a dangerous sport. I know we're exposed to that every day in the normal life as well, but you don't think about it," fellow series champion Tony Kanaan said. "Today we had to think about it. He was one of my best friends and one of my greatest teammates."
Two cars touched, instigating the incident in the pack running inches apart on the high-banked 1.5-mile oval. Wheldon's car, ensnared in the jumble in the middle of the racetrack, flew over another and caught part of the catch fence just past the apex of Turn 2. The incident left Townsend Bell's car upside down and smoldering cars strewn along the backstretch.
Ironically, three weeks earlier, Wheldon completed the test/validation program for the 2012 Dallara Automobili chassis that features enhanced safety features.
"I could see within five laps people were starting to do crazy stuff," said Franchitti, who avoided the mishap toward the tail end of the 34-car starting field. "I love hard racing but that to me is not really what it's about. One small mistake from somebody ...."
It cost the life of one of Franchitti's longtime friends and former teammate at then-Andretti Green Racing.
"Right now I'm numb and speechless," he said minutes after climbing from the No. 10 Target Chip Ganassi Racing car. "One minute you're joking around in driver intros and the next he's gone. He was 6 years old when I first met him. I told his son Thursday night at the parade on The Strip that I've known his dad since he was about your size.
"And then I talked to a friend of mine, Jesse Spence, that I used to race go-karts with that we've known him since he was this little kid. His mouth worked plenty good, but he was just this little kid and the next thing you know he was my teammate in IndyCars.
"We put so much pressure on ourselves to win races and championships and today it doesn't really matter. Everybody in the IndyCar Series was Dan's friend."
Also involved were the cars driven by Will Power, Paul Tracy, Buddy Rice, Alex Lloyd, E.J. Viso, Charlie Kimball, Tomas Scheckter, Jay Howard, Wade Cunningham, Pippa Mann, JR Hildebrand, James Jakes and Vitor Meira.
Power, Mann and Hildebrand were transported to University Hospital via ground. Power was evaluated and released, while the other two were held overnight for further evaluation.
"I've never seen anything like it," said Team Penske's Ryan Briscoe, who was well ahead of the crash. "The debris we all had to drive through the lap later, it looked like a war scene from 'Terminator' or something. So it was scary."
Wheldon won his first Indianapolis 500 on the way to earning the IZOD IndyCar Series championship with Andretti Green Racing. He posted 16 victories in 134 IZOD IndyCar Series races. A resident of St. Petersburg, Fla., he made his first start in September 2002 at Chicagoland Speedway with Panther Racing and posted his first victory in 2004 at Twin Ring Motegi.
"Dan was an Indy 500 champion and IndyCar Series champion with Andretti Autosport -- and one of our closest competitors," Andretti Autosport said in a statement. "Dan brought such enthusiasm and passion to the sport not often seen in motorsports. We will remember Dan's tremendous racing accomplishments with our team as well his infectious personality.
"We would like to express our deepest sympathy to Dan's family, racing team and friends today. Dan is one of IndyCar's greatest champions."
Wheldon also competed for Target Chip Ganassi Racing and won the Indianapolis 500 in May for Bryan Herta Autosport.
"He just had an infectious way about him," said Ganassi, who won his ninth championship as a car owner. "He knew he could smell the front, and when he goes sniffing the front, that was it. He won his first (IndyCar) race out for us (at Homestead-Miami Speedway). And it was like geez, and you understood what the guy had."
Wheldon was the designated driver of the No. 77 Bowers & Wilkins car for Sam Schmidt Motorsports-Bryan Herta Autosport with Curb Agajanian in the Go Daddy INDYCAR Challenge in which if he could win the race from the rear of the 34-car field he would split $5 million with the sweepstakes winner.
The IZOD IndyCar had not had a fatality since Paul Dana died of injuries suffered in a crash in the race morning warmup at Homestead-Miami Speedway in 2006. Wheldon won the race later that day.
Deepest condolences to the family of Dan Wheldon... He will be really missed
A circle is the reflection of eternity: It has no beginning, and it has no end...

2. | Text Message Breakup | ||
The lowest of the low. Quite possibly the best way to let all your soon-to-be angry ex's friends know you have no balls. (True Story)
Girl: I think we're doing great, I'm going to his house this weekend! Friend: Aww, that's sweet! You guys are perfect for each other! Girl: I know! He's the greatest! -girl's phone vibrates- Boy (In Text): Hey... Umm... I'm sorry but this isn't working out. I like it better when we where friends. Girl: WHAT THE F%^&#?!?! Friend: What? Girl: I JUST EXPERIENCED A TEXT MESSAGE BREAKUP! Friend: What a loser! Girl: I KNOW! HE CAN'T EVEN SPELL "WERE" RIGHT! |
1. | text message breakup | ||
to break up with someone via a text message. Highly looked down upon in the dating world. "You cant text message breakup with her, no girls will ever date you again"
3. | text message breakup | ||
The ultimate sign of disrespect in the modern world. Might as well slap them across the face with their own hand made belt that used their own back skin. Then you will also be looked down upon by your friends and you ex's friends for most likely. Ever. text message breakup:::::: that man ho he txt msg BO with me. (army of people with weapons outside of his house) @!#$@#$@# you #$%%%$
#@ |
4. | Text Message Breakup | ||
Recent statistics also show text message breakups automatically lower testosterone levels by 50%. The Dreaded T.M.B: "Hey bby I'm sorry but I don't think this is working out." Congratulations, dumbass! You broke up with somebody though a text message... and you still have the nerve to call them baby in the same message you used to break up with them? Wow. Amazing. You did a 2 in 1! ...So now this chick is crying because she got the most devastating text message that has ever been sent to her sidekick. She reads the text message and calls him back. NO REPLY. So then, this dumbass doesn't pick up the phone but he sends another text message. WHAT THE FUCK!??!? So... the chick gets mad and she sends a 9 page message that contains at least 2 curse words per sentence... In ALL CAPS... but no matter what the message says... it always ends in these words: "YOU'LL BE SORRY! " >= you can't forget the mad face...it plays a very important role in a text message break up ...Genius isn't it? Keep your dignity. Grow some balls: don't text message breakup
5. | Text Message Breakup | ||
When a boyfriend or girlfriend doesn't have the guts to breakup in person so they end up sending a text saying they're breaking up. Similar to the email breakup where you breakup over email. She's a bitch! She just broke up with me in a text message. That's so low!
I know man. The Text Message Breakup is the worst. |
6. | Text Message Breakup | ||
1. To send a text message breaking up with someone. Generally not a good idea, as you have no idea if they're out of service of if their phone is broken. 2. To rip out a girls heart. 1. Text : "Hey im breaking up wit u"
2. OMG, Sean just sent me a text message breakup! |
7. | Text Message Breakup | ||
Having the love of your life breakup with you a week before your birthday via text message from Jeremy Rich. "It's not you, it's me."

Exhibition in Venice delves into the relationship between Picasso and Ambrose Vollard
A visitor walks in the Picasso and Vollard the genius and the merchant exhibition at Palazzo Franchetti in Venice. The exhibition, showing more than 150 Picasso works and running until July 8, 2012 retraces the emblematic relationship between Picasso and his first art patron Ambroise Vollard. AFP PHOTO / GABRIEL BOUYS.
Through 8 July, the
Venetian Institute of Science, Letters, and Art
at Palazzo Cavalli Franchetti in Venice hosts Picasso and Vollard. The genius and the merchant, an exhibition designed and organized by Gamm Giunti in collaboration with the Institute and curated by Claudia Beltramo Ceppi.
For the first time in Venice, the relationship between Pablo Picasso and Ambrose Vollard, the pioneering art merchant who worked between the end of the 19th century and the first decades of the 20th, is investigated through 150 works. Intuition and boldness allowed Vollard to become highly influential, as did his keen eye for misunderstood and little-known artists; the merchant is famous for having organized the first-ever monographic exhibition on Paul Cézanne in his gallery in November 1895, along with exhibitions on Les Nabis. Vollard earned his place in history thanks to his defence of artists such as Derain and Rouault, but most of all thanks to his fateful encounter with a very young Catalan artist by the name of Pablo Picasso way back in 1901, when the latter was trying to make a name for himself in the cutthroat art world.
This was the start of a complex, deeply-involved relationship that lasted almost forty years, until Vollards death in 1939. The merchant, who was the first to offer the Catalan painter the opportunity to stage an exhibition in his gallery, is known for having bought and sold Picassos paintings to the likes of Schukin, Morozov, Gertrude and Leo Stein, Barnes, Thannhauser, and Stieglitz.
The exhibition celebrates his multi-faceted personality with the Harlequin series featuring the renowned etching The Frugal Repast, his illustrations for Balzacs Chef doeuvre inconnuand Buffons LHistorie naturelle, andthe extensive and extraordinary Vollard Suite, which Picasso worked on from 1927 to 1937, which remained overlooked for quite some time due to Vollards death and the onset of World War II.

I saw on another thread you talking about getting the tambaqui ribs. Which restaurant did you end up going to? Would like to try those next time I go down.

We went to Barbacoa at the Manauara Mall.
The dish was "costela de Tambaqui assada".
However, in Manaus I learned that there is another restaurant called Panela Cheia where we find a better Tambaqui na Brasa.

I've been to Manaus a number of times on business and there are some good restaurants. My favorite is Choupana on Rua Recife in the Adrianopolis section of Manaus. It is "local" food, not Brasilian beef. Good fish, shrimp, etc. with local flavor. Don't get me wrong, I also like the Churascurias (barbecue restaurants) but they aren't typical of the Amazon - they are imported from the south of Brasil. Buffalo is a very good one if you want a Churascuria. Another that is fun is El Toro Loco. It has a wide variety of food and the folks there are friendly. It is big and a bit "touristy" but close to the Tropical Hotel and dependably good.
I have also had Tambaqui ribs and loved them. I ate them at Larangina (little orange) which is on the Ponto Negro beach area close to the Tropical. They have an open air stage and a good show of "native" dancing, too. It was under reconstruction for the World Cup a year ago but I am guessing it is finished now.

"Hurricane Hal," formerly known as Bull Schmitt from the Light Photographic Workshops, is here in Croton on Hudson, New York shooting with me – because Hurricane Irene washed out his B&H seminar.
Today we photographed waterfalls – large and small. Here are a few tips, from Hurricane Hal and me, for capturing the beauty of flowing water.
• Use a tripod – to steady your camera during long exposures.
• Shoot at 1 second or more to blur moving water.
• Pack a ND (Neutral Density) filter, which will let you shoot at slow shutter speeds in bright light.
• A polarizing filter can also reduce the amount of light entering the lens.
• Use your camera's self-timer or a cable release to avoid camera shake during a long exposure.
• Check your histogram to check your exposure.
• Bring a lens cloth to keep your lens clean.
• Use Live View to check your scene – composition, focus and exposure. Zoom in for precise focus.
Hurricane Hal and I hope to see you at the California Photo Fest in October in California.
Explore the light,
