Playoff Liveblog: Wild Are So Close to Great... But Not
The Wild have been playing, especially in the second period, like they're constantly on a power play—passing at will, shooting at the right time, but it's all for naught. It's thrilling, frustrating playoff hockey.
Minnesota has been spending so much time in Colorado's zone, they should have their mail forwarded there. While the Avs's five skaters have been trying desperately to handle the Wild's assault, they've been ineffective at preventing shot after shot from just about Wild player. But Theodore is negating both Minnesota's impressive shooting, and Colorado's lackluster defense.
The man simply will not yield. He showed a possible chink when a shot from the blue line zoomed past him and found the net, but was called off for off sides. Otherwise, he's been an impenetrable wall of goalie supremacy. Wild lead scorer Marian Gaborik is still goalless despite having a couple decent chances in this game. Let's hope Wild goalie Niklas Backstrom has found some way to stay awake (maybe he keeps a copy of War and Peace or something in the net), because the Avs might actually come out with an offensive pulse in the third period.
Update: Backstrom ovbviously got cold while going untested for so long. The Avs just went up with two quick goals.
Update: Finally, the Wild blow one past Theodore with about 2 seconds left. Not much help in this game, but maybe it will be a psychological boost in game six. These are the games that frustrate fans more than anything else. Minnesota out played Colorado, they did almost everything right, but were beat soundly and repeatedly by one player. That's all that takes in some games. Onto game six in Denver. The end.

Here are the interviews with the featured makers from last week's event:
David Forbes makes nixie tube displays.
Roger Wood makes beautiful steampunk clocks.
Five Ton Crane (Sean Orlando, David Shulman, Alan Rorie) make a giant raygun gothic rocketship.
Julie Chen makes wonderful book art.
And of course, our very own Nicole Catrett makes all kinds of delightful exhibits for the Tinkering Studio (and cardboard bearskin rugs in her spare time)
The clocks were amazing :) Its a pity most of today's future generations will most likely find less interest towards the old tech from the early 20th century with all the new gadgets and electronic toys becoming more and more popular each year. There is a subtle beauty in those old-timey, intricate works.

Ok, did a search and couldn't find much on the current mail server topic, the importing I could use the imapsync but if zimbra can be installed on the current mail server then if I could just copy the directories or something like that, would be much easier.
So currently we have a dovecot/postfix setup with roundcube webmail. Was thinking of installing Zimbra on the same server then trying to copy the messages. The two questions are, is it smart to install on the current mail server and can I just copy the messages across? OR should I install on another server, imap sync then, rebuild the mail box (OS could use an update), install Zimbra, backup the temp server then copy over to production server?
Not sure which is the best method for doing this. Breaking the email isn't an option :-/ (Of Course...no one can live without email these days)

Hello everyone! I'm working on a strategy game that can be briefly described as chess around the surface of a cube. However, in keeping with the classic board game feel, I would like to maintain a 2D birds-eye view, thus requiring some sort of projection.
I've found ways to capture 3 faces of the cube with triangular* or hexagonal maps, but creating a contiguous looping map is proving quite a challenge. I'm not sure if curving the grid lines is necessary, or if there is a simpler geometric tessellation that can do the trick. Spatial distortion isn't really an issue, so long as all the cells on the map are roughly the same size, there are no points at which more than 3 faces meet, and the same face doesn't wind up adjacent to itself.
Any help or suggested reading material would be highly appreciated.

Shower with 100 Women? Yes, Please.February 22, 2008 | Derek Raisner | 10 Comments
images courtesy of The Shower Project
This is one of those stories where someone tells you about it, and you automatically want to check it out because you're like no fuckin way.
"The Shower Project Goal: Shower with 100 women by the end of 1999 and document it.
It has been almost a decade now since "The Shower Project" was launched, but still to this day I find it truly remarkable that this man actually pulled it off.
Project Background: I work in the film industry and about a year and a half ago on the set of a film, the grip/electric guys were convinced I was pretending to be gay to "get" women. They would walk by me when I had my arm around a women and whisper things like, "We're on to you, Brian." Anyway, to taunt my taunters I thought I would shower with several of these women and take a picture of it. I thought about it and talked about it and finally obsession set in and I set a goal to shower with 100 women by the end of the year. "
So do you have a favorite girl from the shower project? (I like Girl #94 & #98) Let us know who your favorite girl was by leaving a comment below.
Note: There is no nudity on the site.

I've got to wonder if those girls are happy now looking back on this little project. I mean this was done in 1999 and you got to remember at that time the interweb was not as developed as it is today.
I wonder what those women are up to now? If any of you reading this were in one of those photos…please comment!!!!

I love how the images progress and got more fun and goofy. Which begs the question…who the hell took the photos???????? Who is the mystery photographer?
Questions for Mr Brian:
Did you ever get a hard on with any of the women?
Did any of the women ever back out of the shoot?
What percentage of the women were single at the time?
…most interesting project. Bravo!

French Government Fears 'Social Implosions Or Explosions'
Wolf Richter www.testosteronepit.com www.amazon.com/author/wolfrichter
The daily drumbeat of layoff and plant-closure announcements in France has been riling up desperate workers who stand to lose their livelihood without much hope of finding a job elsewhere as unemployment has hit 10.5%. But now the government is worried about a "radicalization" of these angry workers. A major quandary: on one hand, the Socialists promised during the election to side with the workers; but on the other hand, they must somehow figure out how to create an environment where the private sector can survive.
And the private sector is gasping for air. The Services Purchasing Managers' Index fell to 43.6 in January, from 45.2 in December (below 50 = contraction), the fastest rate of contraction since March 2009. Particularly worrisome was the steep decline in employment. Manufacturing was even worse. Its index fell to 42.9 in January. New orders plunged at the fastest rate since March 2009, with domestic demand the primary culprit. Employment skidded as excess capacity led companies to slash their headcount.
That these references to March 2009, the dark days of the financial crisis, keep cropping up in economic data is troubling. The report speaks of a "deepening malaise" and "a broad-based deterioration in the private sector" with "significant headwinds," "accelerated job cutting," and "heightened levels of uncertainty." President François Hollande and his government should be in panic mode.
The private sector is anemic in France. Based on the 2013 budget, the central government will contribute 56.3% to the economy. The remaining 43.7% is spread over local and regional governments and finally the private sector—that is shriveling with the relentless de-industrialization of France.
Plant shut-downs and layoffs, or merely the announcement of these events often months or even years down the road, make bold headlines. Video clips of protests associated with them show up on TV, with angry men and women blocking the site. There are images of fires and mayhem. Managers are taken hostage. Politicians weigh in gravely and speak of "dialogue." Layoffs and plant closures don't go down smoothly in France.
A series of big-name companies, some of them part-owned by the state, has become part of the nightly layoff blues: Air France, steelmaker ArcelorMittal, Texas Instruments, Goodyear, refiner Petroplus, or automakers PSA PeugeotCitroën and Renault, whose unit sales in France had plunged 17% and 20% respectively last year. But it doesn't stop there. Now home sales are grinding to a halt [read... The Next Shoe To Drop In France].
The numbers are adding up: in 2012, according to Trendeo, which tracks the creation and destruction of jobs in France, 266 industrial plants were closed last year, a 42% jump from 2011! Since 2009, a total of 1,087 old factories were shuttered while only 703 new ones were brought to life, for a net loss of 384 plants. And these new factories have on average 8.5% fewer employees than factories that are being shut down.
Just how deeply the government is worried about the growing labor unrest emerged during an interview on BFMTV on Tuesday. And not in a propitious location: Interior Minister Manuel Valls was discussing the hunt for Islamist terrorists in France—efforts that the government has redoubled since its military involvement in Mali—when suddenly the topic shifted to the government's fear of "excesses and violence" during the next labor-related demonstrations.
"Social anger"—meaning, anger by unionized workers—"as a consequence of the financial and economic crisis, job insecurity, unemployment, and layoffs is here and has been rumbling for years," admitted Valls. "But what we're seeing today are less social movements but social implosions or explosions."
Turns out, the government is already preparing for them. A memo to that effect, dated January 30, bubbled to the surface. Sent to regional directors of the police intelligence service, it underlines "the risks of incidents" or possible "threats to production equipment in case of radicalization of the conflict." To get a handle on the situation, the government has instructed its police intelligence apparatus to gather information on the movements and to follow teetering companies "very closely" in order to anticipate a possible "radicalization" of the labor unrest.
Valls confirmed the police surveillance. "You have to carefully analyze it," he said about the social anger. And that was the job specifically of the intelligence services of the police, he added. Ever the likeable Socialist, he found the right words. "We have to try to understand the reasons that push men and women into desperation," he said. "Men and women who are in the process of losing their jobs."
What about vandalism and destruction of production equipment often associated with these movements? "We have to try to understand them, but we cannot permit them," he said firmly, as the interview drifted to the next topic: rising violence and property crimes against individuals.
The heightened police presence at these sites during times of labor unrest, often in unmarked cars, has the unions worried. And Bernard Thibault, Secretary General of the CGT, warned that it would be seen as a "provocation." And so the second largest economy of the Eurozone enters into a phase where fear of a labor revolt hangs over every economic decision the government makes.
The unemployment rate in particular has become treacherous. While all countries use inscrutable statistical systems to make unemployment look better, France also has an administrative tool: removing tens of thousands of people every month from the unemployment rolls for spurious reasons.

Is there any one item in France that symbolizes all that is wrong the way the Bastille did? Is that thing, you know, stormable?
And like the good little sheep that they are, they'll turn to the government and beg them to fix it.
What will the frogs do when all those Arabs living there start rioting and burning the country down?
Mali incursion was as much about deflecting attention from the plummetting economy and bumping military purchasing to stem Markit losses as anything.
France can be a study case for the 'american' crisis as they fit so well the middle class thingie.
When looking at France, you'll see they are the 'american' middle class thing, they always have someone higher than them and someone lower than them.
For centuries now, 'americans' have milked that position by draining from both ends, stomping the lower class and leeching off the upper class.
No longer works as it used to. Good days are gone.
'Americans' in the middle.
Check the french industry: their products are more quality than some others but work force is more expensive so if you lookf for cheaper workforce, you do not go there.
Their workforce is less expensive than some others but the quality of goods is lesser than some others. So if you look for high quality products, you do not go there.
In the middle.
The 'american' epitome.
The curse of the 'americans'.
Works everywhere.
'Americans' bracketed by Jews(upper) and Negroes(under)
'Americans' bracketed by upper class and lower class
The middle position, the 'american' blessing turned into a curse.
'new' frenemies from 'Framerica'
puis-je avoir la roadside merde ?
Idiot...there are more ethnic groups in this nation than those 3 you named.
And France's primary problem is that they imported africa to try to "fix" what they thought was a demographic issue.
They got people with NO INTEREST in maintaining infrastructure or society, just consuming it.
With 'americans', stuff is cyclical, they say.
I wonder how long it was since the last time this 'american' warned about social implosion in France.
More than one year ago, I stated causes why there would no social implosion in France.
Even another 'american' picked up on the remark to forecast there will be rumble in Greece if the observation was true.
Result: rumble in Greece, nothing in France.
And it can be added: more articles to come predicting social implosions in France.
It sells. And selling fantasy is so much easier than facing reality. Facing reality can be costier, much.
That is the way 'americans' are.
What are the 'americans' residing in France busy with? Dissolving themselves as French to climb up to that new dimension: European.
The only way out now for 'americans' in Europe living in countries like France.
The poor are getting squeezed at every opportunity whilst the rich banksters get a tiny feather slap and 'do it again' message
For example the 'Bedroom tax' will cut benefits for those who have a spare bedroom.
and if you want to take your employer to a Tribunal you will have to fork out over £1,000!
The poor are nothing but a steeping for the middle class in 'american' societies.
They need Drones
French Spring would be fun to watch. The French don't do much well, except build a fantastic tire and protest. In Germany, especially in our car industry -- we love the French protests. Their burning of cars makes us a lot of money!
Mr. Rzykruski: Ladies and gentlemen. I think the confusion here is that you are all very ignorant. Is that right word, ignorant? I mean stupid, primitive,unenlightened. You do not understand science, so you are afraid of it. Like a dog is afraid of thunder or balloons. To you, science is magic and witchcraft because you have such small minds. I cannot make your heads bigger, but your children's heads, I can take them and crack them open. This is what I try to do, to get at their brains!
196 countries on earth, 194 countries that lick balls.
Met a Frenchman about the time of the Atocha bombing in Mardid. He said if that had happened in Paris it would have been the start of a race war and people didn't realize the amount of guns the French have at their disposal.

Most of the French farmers carry firearms. That is why the French government is scared of them and usually caves in to their demands.
Ahhh... more immigration success. Why change politicians when you can change populations?
Just shows you don't fix a failing socialist state by electing a bigger socialist.
Nobody really gets it ... the onrushing 'fin' to modernity ... ready to hit the French like the hammer of Thor.
Wait until that hammer hits the Americans.
"All we have to do is __________________________, then everything will get back to normal." Fiddle with interest rates, sell some more bonds, bail out a bank or two, beat up some Muslims on the streets ... borrow from the Fed ...
... sell more cars, drive in circles like doomed flying dutchmen from gas station to gas station. This is what has bankrupted the country in the first place ... all of the countries.
You have to ask yourself, what does it pay, to drive in circles all day, year after year? The answer is nothing, the amounts in the tens of trillions have to be borrowed ... from Wall Street. Euro-jackasses bought the American Way and let the New York capitalists sell the rope the same jackasses are using to ... become Greece.
Hey! Guess what Frenchies? Your trip down the vespasiennes is permanent, there will never be a recovery! Never. Not in 100 million years. You idiots had a once-in-a-lifetime chance be somebody ... a contender ... instead of a bum.
"It was you, Charlie"
Only possible hope is for the entire country to get rid of the cars. No more petroleum imports, no more debts. No more Wall Street, to deindustrialize and get small. Otherwise ... small happens anyway, as unpleasantly as possible.
Nobody really gets it ... the onrushing 'fin' to modernity ... ready to hit the French like the hammer of Thor.
'Americans' got it. But 'americans' have no other ways but 'americanism'
They cant switch tracks. They are focused on coming on top as things are unfolding.
There'll be no social implosions or explosions in France.
Only slow decaying.
"Euro-jackasses bought the American Way"
Your history is flat-wrong as ever.
Yes it is.
They are not Euro jackasses. They are mere 'americans'
The 'american' way prevailed in Europe, with Europe largely dominated by 'americans'.
But 'americans' re no jackasses. They are 'american'. And that is enough.
'Americans' are no jackasses.
They are 'american'. And that is enough.
No sheeple among 'americans', no jackasses, no dumber than dumb either.
They are 'american'. Which includes being duplicitous.
Is government another meaning of the word cars?
I loved this line
"the central government will contribute 56.3% to the economy"
The next time the State contributes to the economy will be the first.
The fire rises.
My, this may interfere with their wine, cheese & espresso breaks.
And you hard working American doing what? Selling Chinese shit or running brothel 24/7, and you're so exausted of working so hard that nobody here will understand it! Or maybe you're writing programs for security agencies, or phone companies or maybe games. Maybe designing some new fucked up devices for banks or better guns and armaments?
You have to forgive Americans (Japanese too), who, rather like Communists, and Fascists, have been inculcated since birth with the love-of-labor, the Protestant Work Ethic, transfigured into a self-contained eidolon with no relation to the Protestant god.
The private sector is anemic in France. Based on the 2013 budget, the central government will contribute 56.3% to the economy. The remaining 43.7% is spread over local and regional governments and finally the private sector—that is shriveling with the relentless de-industrialization of France.
Dude, I'm not going to deny that the public sector is large in France, but this statement shows that one can write a lot about economics and still not understand some basics. Yes, the number "public spending" equals 56.3% of the number "GDP", but you can't compare spending and production directly. Numbers for spending actually add the same things multiple times, because what one economic agent spends can be respent by someone else (whereas the GDP only counts things once, since it only counts added value). For example, personal spending is also equal to about 55% of GDP, and spending by non-financial companies is equal to almost 100% of GDP.
So, saying that the central government contributes 56.3% to the economy is utterly false. The private sector does contribute the most to the economy, by far, just like in any other developped country.
6 junks for a comment that is factually true. I guess ZHers don't like being told the truth any more than the average american.
Most posters on here are 'american'.
It is well known 'americans' prefer their fantasy and propaganda over reality.
Just an exhibition of their 'american' nature.
The euro crisis is a classic labour theory of value crisis.
This is best seen in the euro car industry where factories are moving out of France to avoid labour costs as the raw material input costs are actually higher where they are going.
This expenditure of capital to avoid labour (making new factories in the east and closing down perfectly good factories in "the core" destroys more capital , driving up the cost of credit.)
No wages & now no credit in the core means the goods cannot be bought.
Indeed this process affects all industry, especially in the euro area (the euro was designed to avoid labout by any & all means)
The Strange Irish horsemeat in beef burgers scandal has in reality exposed not so much a health & safety issue but the extreme lengths employers go to avoid labour value in Europe.
the WTO as it exists today is the vehicle for demand destruction in the developed western nations -
the devils trade of imported finished GOODS - manufacturing jobs - in the USA, Canada and the EEC - was traded for the entry of the FIRE based SERVICES in the developing world without any restrictions - the china et al were allowed to bring their cheap goods "without" tariffs so that the FIRE industries could have free access to their developing markets
read the AIG Story
the WTO will create the biggest social upheaval since the french revolution - it is now on an impossible trajectory everywhere - for a tiny sliver of humanity gaining temporary advantage until the consumer markets implode everywhere
very soon now !
Very soon?
I suppose it is true for people who live thousands of years. For the others, their life time wont be enough to see that very soon.
There was no conspiracy. Only the continuation of 'american' economics.
Due to Smithian economics, it is totally natural that activity with low added value are moved to places of low consumption while activity with high added value are moved to places of high consumption.
Basically, the US will be the place for extremelly large owners. They will be surrounded with swarms of servants.
Europe, possibly, place for people with a very high position job. Surrounded by swarms of servants too.
The rest of the world: the rest of the work, moving here and there.
But now the government is worried about a "radicalization" of these angry workers. A major quandary: on one hand, the Socialists promised during the election to side with the workers; but on the other hand, they must somehow figure out how to create an environment where the private sector can survive.
Stopped reading right there. Get back to me when you figure out that WORKERS are the backbone of PRIVATE SECTOR.
No private sector can thrive if workers are sitting at home or not earning a decent pay.
Call me when the workers figure out how markets actually work instead of attempting to legislate a fairytale into existence for their own benefit at the expense of everyone else. I'm not holding my breath.
The folly of the hapless worker class never ceases to amaze. Keep waiting for that social-democrat party to fix everything like they never have nor ever will.
Private sector = middle class = targeted for elimination.
So if I am a teacher, police officer, fireman or Boeing employee I am not middle class?

Some small vessels had only an eagle as a bow decoration. In this eagle head, the carving terminates at the neck. Aside from patriotic associations, the eagle, with its sharp eyes, was especially appropriate to symbolize a lookout or guide. This particular example served as a figurehead on the Great Republic, which was launched at Boston in 1853. The piece was carved by either S.W. or William B. Gleason. Eagles were also popular decorations for sternpieces and the top of a ship's pilothouse.

The Kardashians
Kim Kardashian Shows Off Sexy Post-Baby Body — And Kanye West Loves It!
The Atkins diet sure seems to be working wonders for Kim Kardashian!
The new mom posted a photo of herself on Instagram last night donning a tiny white bathing suit, looking slimmer than ever.
The outfit certainly doesn't censor Kim's, uh, assets and the reality star's boyfriend Kanye West didn't seem to mind in the slightest. In response to the racy photo, Kanye tweeted, "HEADING HOME NOW." Let's hope little North West had a sitter!
Kim has showed off her post-baby body before, but has yet to shown so much skin. Up until now, the reality star has stayed relatively clothed, sticking to long dresses and jeans.
With Kim's restrictive diet since giving birth to North four months ago, we think she deserves to show off a little bit! The new mom has been following the Atkin's diet since giving birth, cutting out all carbs and focusing on proteins instead.
"She's working out here and there, but it's mainly about the food, Atkins-style," a source told Us Weekly last month. "In August, Kim got frustrated because she hit a plateau, even though she was eating mostly protein and veggies."
Whatever the problem was, Kim certainly seems to have made it over that plateau!
What do you think of Kim's body-baring outfit? Let us know in the comments below!

Archana is well nourished and studying hard
14-year old Archana is the oldest of five children. Her family is extremely poor, because her father is an alcoholic who spends the majority of the money that he earns working as a roadside metal worker on alcohol. As he only earns about Rs 1500 ($35) a month in total, often only about Rs 500 ($12) is left for household expenses every month. Archana is in Grade 9 and is on track to graduate from 10th grade (the end of secondary school) next year, which will make her the first person in her entire extended family to receive any sort of education at all, let alone graduate from high school!
Archana is an extremely bright student and does well in school, despite the lack of guidance and support from her parents, because she receives daily assistance from the Ashraya Initiative for Children (AIC). AIC sponsors her and her siblings' education, clothes, transportation to school, tutoring etc.
As a part of this support, AIC provides daily meals for Archana and the other children in the program. Archana receives a packed meal to school, eats again when she arrives back at AIC's Education Center after school, and has the option of taking food home with her after tutoring. Although these nutritious meals are important for all the children in the program, for Archana and her siblings, they have truly made the difference between good health and malnutrition. As Archana approaches the most important year of her academic career thus far, she is thankful to receive daily meals and knows that she is well on her way toward a brighter future.
Your gift of a month of meals each, Junghwan, Don, Explorers, Sarah (x2), Lowry, Jamie & Jeff, James, Jeffrey, Jerame, Katherine, and Lee,will ensure that Archana continues to receive three balanced meals a day for an entire year. The meals include chapati (flat bread), bhaji (cooked vegetables), boiled eggs, fresh seasonal fruit, yogurt and several other items.
Thank you, Junghwan, Don, Explorers, Sarah, Lowry, Jamie & Jeff, James, Jeffrey, Jerame, Katherine, and Lee, for coming together to ensure that Archana continues to enjoy good health.

spring is finally here
Monday, April 22, 2013
Well, I went down to New York last week and took lots of pictures of cherry blossoms and other signs of spring while I was there, all the while lamenting that spring comes so much later in Rhode Island. [If you want to see my pictures, they're here:
I'd post some directly here but I'm not on my computer.] Well, when I got back on Wednesday, I was surprised to see that spring HAD come during my absence! Last year, the trees and flowers didn't start to bloom until well into May, so this was a surprise.
With the warmer weather, I find it a lot easier to motivate myself to get outside for exercise. I've dusted off my bike and although I'm not back up to doing those 20 mile rides of last summer [my butt has to get used to the bike seat again, and it's got less padding than last spring!], the quick rides around the city have been good. And I've been walking a LOT. [Tuesday, while in NYC, I walked over nine miles!]
I did take a break from running for a couple weeks because of a back injury but that seems to have gone away so I'm back to running. I did 3.5 miles yesterday, along with a couple miles of walking, and it even included running up some really tough hills! I've restarted my half marathon training, AGAIN, because I kept missing entire weeks thanks to injuries, but at least I can still run a 5k distance. And, actually, I've got another 5k coming up on May 5th [I was originally supposed to be running the half marathon that day but, well, you know how training went].
Coming home, I stepped on my right foot wrong and twisted my ankle. You know, the ankle that was sprained for six months last year. I was SO WORRIED that I'd maybe sprained it again, and I still had to walk home [I'd gone to the bike path, which is about 2 miles from my house, for a change of scenery]. As soon as I got home I iced it, and stayed off of it as much as possible all night, and it seems to be fine today so *phew*. I don't want to deal with this ankle being sprained again!
But, you know, I'd forgotten how easy it is to burn a thousand calories in a single day when it's nice weather and being out for over an hour is no problem... Hopefully the scale will finally go down now! [It did go down four pounds from my last entry, thankfully, but it's still not where I'd like it to be.]
[Not to get my hopes up or anything, but as long as I stay injury free for the next two weeks and can keep up with my running, I'm on track to FINALLY beat my 5k PR from 2007!]

Glad the ankle seems strong. I'm still healing up a double sprain from December.

Golden Bears Represented In U.S. National Team Competition
Related Links
BERKELEY – Once again, California women's rowing is strongly represented in the United States National Team program this summer.
Four-time All-American Kara Kohler, who completed her outstanding career with the Golden Bears earlier this month, has re-joined the U.S. Senior National Team that will compete in the 2014 World Rowing Championships Aug. 24-31 in Amsterdam.
"It was an absolute pleasure to work with Kara and see her develop into an Olympian and one of the best rowers we' e had in our program," California head women's crew coach Dave O'Neill said. "Kara has always been a very hard worker. She has high expectations for herself and works very hard to achieve the goals she's set for herself and, more importantly, those of the team. As great of an athlete as she is, she is an even better person, and I'm going to greatly miss working her."
O'Neill is coaching the U.S. U23 National Team selection camp that is currently taking place in Berkeley through July 5. Agatha Nowinski, a two-time All-American who stroked Cal's varsity eight the past two seasons, is one of three Golden Bears invited to the U23 team selection camp. Rising junior Kendall Chase, who rowed the seven-seat in Cal's varsity eight this past year, and rising senior Lindsay Meltz, who coxed the Golden Bears' varsity eight in 2014, were also invited to the prestigious selection camp.
"The U23 camp is off to a good start, and I'm impressed with the women who are here," O'Neill said. "One of the first things we've done was to establish a team atmosphere. Even though there are so many different programs represented and they were fierce competitors just a week earlier at NCAA's, everyone has come together very well, and it is starting to show in the quality of be rowing.
"The goals for this team are obviously to do well at U23, but more importantly we are looking ahead to the 2016 and 2020 Olympics," O'Neill added. "This group should be the core of the U.S. team in Tokyo in 2020, and it looks like the future is very bright."
The U23 camp will resume July 8 in Princeton, N.J. as final selections are made and final preparations get underway for the U23 World Rowing Championships July 23-27 in Varese, Italy.
The four Golden Bears guided Cal to a third-place finish in the varsity eight at the NCAA Championships earlier this month, leading the Bears to a second-place team finish at the NCAAs.
Kohler, Nowinski and Chase each represented the United States in the Sydney World Cup in Australia in March. Kohler and Nowinski raced a pair, reaching the A Final and finishing sixth overall. Chase and fellow Golden Bear Rosie Popa rowed in another U.S. pair that won the B Final.

Naturally, with the temperature's warming, my calendar begins to fill up with many outdoor events: Beach trips, barbecues, and early mornings on my patio are all on my radar. Yet with all of these activities and exposure to the sun, it's easy to not consider if you are doing everything you can to prevent skin cancer and protect your body. Millions of people are negatively effected by the sun every year and the awareness must be brought up. In order to stay healthy and keep our bodies at low risk of disease and cancer, we must get educated, and with May being the official "skin cancer awareness month", what better time than now?
Did you know daily sunscreen use cuts our risk of Melanoma in half? Studies show that it does, and it takes 5 minutes out of your day to apply the product; that isn't too much to ask, right? Though, how can we navigate through the sea of sunscreen products to find the best one for you? Here's some facts to help you narrow down your search, or to hopefully point you in the direction of a great product for your face and body.
Chemical vs Physical: Physical sunscreens provide a broad spectrum of UVA and UVB protection, which reflect or scatter UV radiation before it reaches your skin. They are especially useful for individuals with sensitive skin, as they rarely cause skin irritation. Chemical sunscreens work by absorbing the energy of UV radiation before it affects your skin. The majority of Chemical sunscreens only offer UVB protection and not UVA (unless it has the UVA blocking agent: Avobenzone in it), which can result in long term skin injury/cancer. I prefer to stick to a physical sunscreen with titanium dioxide or zinc oxide. For more information, Check out this great chart highlighting the main differences between the two.
Does anything over SPF 30 really work: Lets look at the facts on this one, an SPF 30 gives at least 95% protection against harmful UVA/UVB rays, yet both an SPF of 55 and 85 shows about a 99% protection rate. No sunscreen gives 100% coverage, and though that extra 4% coverage is essential, it's mainly used as a marketing technique that many consumers get caught up in. The amount and frequency of application, as well as the kind of quality product your using, is what will contribute mainly to your protection. When shopping for a sunscreen, it's important to note, though you are looking at the actual number rating (SPF 15, 25 etc) that rating is only based off of UVB and does not include UVA (which is more harmful!), so be sure to look for the "UVA/UVB Protection" or "Broad Spectrum" protection label on the bottle to get full protection and coverage.
When to apply: Sunscreen should be applied liberally to clean, dry skin 20 minutes before going outside. Be sure to cover every exposed part of your body and face (and don't forget those hands!) Reapply every two hours, or more regularly if you are perspiring or involved in water activities. Keep in mind, even though spray lotions and gels are the least oily, they are also the ones that wash off easily and need to be reapplied more frequently.
Product Recommendations: Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch, Laura Mericer Tinted Moisturizer, Eucerin Everyday Protective Face Lotion, La Roche-Posay Anthelios Cream (Top rated!) Dermalogica Solar Defense Booster (My personal fave, so versatile!)

- a copy of the full article (from the published Proceedings), i.e. not an author's copy of the paper
- proof of full paper peer review (often in the Proceedings introduction material but if not check Conference website)
- proof of the national or international significance of the conference
- evidence of the author's affiliation to the University of Sydney

Mercedes-Benz Unimog is the Best Cross Country Vehicle of the Year
There are a few trucks from other brands that could emulate the outstanding features of the Mercedes-Benz Unimog. One thing that makes this monster stand out from its rivals is its capability to withstand harsh terrains and environmental conditions—be it in the desert, snow, ice, or flooded areas. Due to its nearly unparalleled features, it was chosen by the readers of the specialist journal "Off Road" as the Best Cross Country Vehicle of the Year under the "special-purpose vehicle" segment. The truck garnered 51.4 percent votes in the poll, giving it the first place among its rivals. It should be noted that the journal has been conducting similar polls since 1982…. Continue Reading »

Tempe police concluded their role in the case of missing baby Gabriel Johnson hours after arresting a Scottsdale woman Tuesday on suspicion of trying to pressure the child's father into signing over his rights to the boy.
Authorities say they still do not know the whereabouts of the 9-month-old baby. The investigation is now in the hands of police in San Antonio.
Tammi Smith, 37, was booked into a Maricopa County jail on counts of forgery, custodial interference and conspiracy to commit custodial interference. The child's mother, Elizabeth Johnson, 23, is in jail on charges of kidnapping, child abuse and custodial interference.
Smith's husband, Jack, was cleared by Tempe police.
"We've done nothing; we did nothing wrong," Jack Smith said Tuesday after his wife's arrest. "They have bullied us from the beginning. And they're bullying us now. . . . We have nothing to do with Gabriel being gone. There is no proof."
Tammi Smith is accused of providing the baby's mother with contacts for a place to stay and adoption advice after Johnson fled with the child in mid-December. At the same time, police said, Smith called and texted the boy's father, trying to bully him into signing over his custodial rights. Her goal, said Tempe Lt. Mike Horn, was to adopt the baby.
Logan McQueary, 25, the child's father, told reporters last month he felt extorted by the Smiths and said they told him Johnson would return if he would sign over his parental rights, something they had asked him to do for several weeks after he broke up with her.
According to Smith's arrest documents, she texted McQueary and told him, "The only way she'll come back is if my attorney faxes the signed papers to her so she won't get in trouble and Gabriel (would be with us)."
Two days later, police interviewed Smith and asked how she would "handle the fact that Logan McQueary refused to sign over his custodial rights."
She replied by telling police she intended to use her attorney to pressure McQueary to pay past child support and future support in the hopes that it would be enough to make him concede his rights. She told police then that she hoped that pressure would be enough for her to eventually adopt Gabriel.
The forgery charge stems from Smith's claim that someone other than McQueary was the child's father, which she later acknowledged wasn't true. A handwriting analysis by the Department of Public Safety concluded that she lied on a custody document before the disappearance and put her own cousin down as a potential father of Gabriel. Police interviewed the man and determined he had never met the baby's mother.
Police do not believe the Smiths have any information about where the baby is now.
Tempe police have said in the past that any additional chargeswould have to come out of Texas because that's where the boy was last seen alive.
The boy's mother has been in jail for the past month and has refused to speak to investigators. She left Arizona with Gabriel on Dec. 18 and was arrested in Miami on Dec. 30 without him.
While in San Antonio, she texted the boy's father and told him that she had smothered the baby and left him in a baby bag in a dumpster. She later said she didn't really kill Gabriel.
Tempe police initially thought the baby was alive, because Tammi Smith continued communicating with the mother about adopting the child even after Gabriel disappeared, Horn said. But when Johnson began to spurn Smith's help during her trip through Texas, Smith began begging her to return to Arizona.
Since then, there have no more signs that Gabriel is alive, Horn said.
Tammi Smith is escorted by a Tempe police officer to the Maricopa County Fourth Avenue Jail Tuesday afternoon. She faces charges of custodial interference, conspiracy to commit custodial interference and forgery.

The official site for Grand Theft Auto 4 has been released by Rockstar Games at http://rockstargames.com/grandtheftauto4/
Thankfully it shows for PS3 as well as XBox 360, and won't be a one console game and both will be launching at the same time, apparently
Gamespot posted on their site:
[UPDATE] At its pre-E3 press conference, Microsoft confirmed that the next Grand Theft Auto is coming to the Xbox 360 in October of next year. In an official announcement, Rockstar Games confirmed simultaneous launch on PS3.
- Gamespot Article
Thanks to Damian and Miami13
Microsoft have revealed at E3 that GTA IV will have downloadable add-ons from the XBox Live service. More details will follow as launch date nears.

I doubt the game will be as big/good as it could've been if it's going to work on the 360 aswell
Good point. Hopefully the PS3 version is just much better graphically. October 2007... so far away.
Yeah I agree. An Xbox version will merely drag things down. The Xbox is an inferior console graphically, and in terms of storage space. Blu-Ray can hold >20GB on one disk. Dual layer DVD <10, so if they're going to fit it onto both consoles, Rockstar aren't going to be able to fill up the whole 20GB disk with sexy ass GTA content if it's going to have to be ported onto the 360 as well.

Visit Adult Lifestyles Network
Adult Lifestyles Network continues to be a true adult dating community welcoming both swinging couples and singles too. I need first to correct my comment from last year about no thumbnails on search results. I discovered that if you roll your mouse over the little man, woman or couple symbol on the list of your results, a small preview window pops up displaying a few details and picture if there is one. One thing that does appear to have changed is free access, which has become limited to browsing profiles only. However, comments from one of our surfer and various ALN members on their message boards contend that its biggest advantage over competitors are its real profiles and genuine opportunities to meet like-minded individuals.
AdultLifestylesNetwork delivers a true sense of community. Many sites talk a big game but don't have any balls when it's time to play. ALN seems to have actual men and women serious about what they're online to get it. That's not to say it doesn't have some of the same drawbacks and issues that other sites have, but it compensates quite well for those limitations.
The ALN profile process requires choosing many checkboxes for a full accurate physical description. However, essays are optional to fill out. As with any site that doesn't make write-ups mandatory, some profiles are sparse regarding details. Nevertheless, unlike some other sites, I noticed many members (female not just male) had pictures and videos, often of an X-rated nature, although these are often posted separately from profiles in special gallery sections.
Otherwise, ALN is serious about bringing people together for sex. There are numerous ways to connect with people and you don't need to be a paying member to use them. There are listings of swinger parties and clubs, other orgy announcements and live chat, in video or picture enabled versions. There is an instant messaging system called Sex911, which is a way of hooking up in real-time.
The search option on any page defaults to the traveling distance from your zip/postal code (for UK, US and Canada) initially provided in your personal profile. The main search page allows for expanded range results. My only negative comment is that returned searches do not display thumbnails and men far outnumber women.
There are other extras including forums, blogs and non-adult content games. I confess some blog entries are highly stimulating. Besides some whiny types feeling misunderstood, many people's tawdry tales were scintillating smut through and through. Becoming a paid Adult Lifestyles Network member, you get access to the Wild Rose Network, which is a vast collection of amateur porn sites, providing hours of viewing pleasure. The membership rate is well worth it just for the porn access without even counting the unlimited access to personals, so I think Adult Lifestyles Network is worth joining.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

"The Republicans are ******* idiots, the Democrats are ******* idiots. Conservatives are idiots, liberals are idiots. Anyone who makes up their mind before they've heard the issue is a ******* fool. Everybody who wants to be down with the gang… 'I'm a Liberal… I'm a Conservative'… That's bull***. Be a ******* person. Listen. Let it swirl around your head. Then form your opinion. No normal, decent person is one thing, okay? I got some s**t I'm conservative about, I've got some s**t I'm liberal about…"
Chris Rock – Neither liberal nor conservative
Chris Rock is a stand-up comedian, but at a time when the political stage, both in the US and the UK is either in turmoil or potential stagnation, we need our professional Fools more than ever. I use the term in the Shakespearean, 'King Lear' sense. In that play, you may remember, it was the Fool above all others who spoke the truth to the senile monarch; who communicated those ideas and ideals that others in the court feared to broach.
Here Rock has expertly nailed, in only a few, admittedly expletive littered sentences, my frustration with Western politics. A while ago, back in the early days of my Telegraph blogging, I wrote a piece about my annoyance with our archaic, outmoded, and trivialising notions of 'left' and 'right' wing. I argued then that anyone who describes themselves as left or right wing is simply buying up their opinions as a corner shop buys stock from the cash-and-carry, rather than forming them for themselves. Why is it that the responses to such diverse topics as climate change, gay marriage, crime, and war can be predicted quite accurately in advance, so that if a person believes climate change is a natural occurrence that is in no way influenced by Man, chances are they'll have a dismal view of gay marriage? And why should the mirror of that sentence be true? Is it possible that the self-proclaimed 'conservatives' are right about everything? Or can the 'liberals' make that claim?
Of course not. And yet, to read so much public opinion you'd think we were engaged in an ongoing war in which neither side will be happy until the other is completely erased from the political map. Never mind that the most successful democracies have survived, endured, and succeeded because the political pendulum swings from left to right, usually in accordance with the wishes of the public. Never has this been more evident than in the years immediately following World War II. Many are astounded that Churchill lost the general election in July 1945, but it seems clear, in hindsight, that only an economically socialist government could deal with the aftermath of the war. Similarly it is hard to imagine a socialist government of CND members and armchair Trotskyites guiding us through the last days of the Cold War in the 1980s. Those who seek the eradication of the opposing political view lead blinkered lives and operate under revisionist, and often largely fictitious versions of world history.
So me? I'm with Chris Rock. There's some s**t I'm conservative about, and some s**t I'm liberal about. And to anyone who might say I'm sitting on the fence… You try sitting on a fence. It's a damned sight harder than standing either side.

Juniors Building Materials is proud to be a partner with Ply Gem in the southeast Tennessee area for window products. Ply Gem is one of the main suppliers of windows in the marketplace, including vinyl, metal-clad and wood varieties, with many options available such as single hung, double hung, casement, awning, picture and geometric shapes to match any design needs.
"Ply Gem also has many options when it comes to grid patterns," said Otto "Junior" Boehm. "Colonial grid, prairie, open prairie, 3/1 6/1 4/1, plaza, and your imagination is the only limit to designs."
He added that simulated divided lite or grids between the glass are also options. These and the windows come in a variety of colors to suit most any desire. Vinyl colors available are white, beige and clay.
"You can get many glass options including Low E [with a microscopically thin, transparent coating that reflects heat], Low E with argon, tinted glass and triple-pane glass in many of the available windows," Boehm said. "Optional jamb sizes will accommodate any special requirement."
With a broad range of innovative energy efficient and aesthetically pleasing windows, Ply Gem has the style, material and performance to match customers' needs for their architecture and their budget.
"With an ever-changing energy code, and many new code requirements for fire and child restraints, Ply Gem has addressed these concerns for safety with answers that meet code requirements," Boehm said. "Every state and city seems to adopt different codes."
Ply Gem also offers a limited lifetime glass warranty and a limited lifetime frame warranty on all vinyl products. Most of the time if glass is going to go bad, it does so within the first five years, he said. The vinyl frame usually remains unchanged once installed, according to Boehm. Other warranties apply to other windows and should be addressed for the application involved.
Juniors is a much respected dealer in the Chattanooga area and carries state-of-the-art products such as those from Ply Gem and Hardie, LP engineered wood products, Trex products, polyvinyl chloride trim, Advantech, Zip products, TechShield decking and Tamko roofing products.
"We also have an 8,000-square-foot hardware department for the homeowner, remodeler or contractor," Boehm said.
Juniors serves the entire Chattanooga area and beyond. The company has a fleet of delivery trucks including six tractor trailers, three 10-wheelers, four flatbeds and three box vans that are often able to deliver building materials to the job site on the same day. The business serves both commercial and residential customers and also offers a retail-friendly environment for the do-it-yourself guru.
Juniors is primarily a contractor-oriented home center that caters to cost-conscious highly motivated entrepreneurial homeowners, contractors, commercial and individual consumers. Boehm never forgets you are the main reason for the business and are vital to its sustainability in the future. With a knowledgeable sales staff with more than 100 years of combined experience, Juniors realizes that relationships are made one project at a time.
"Ply Gem is one of the main suppliers of windows in the marketplace, including vinyl, metal clad and wood, with many options available such as single hung, double hung, casement, awning, picture and geometric shapes to match any design needs," said Otto "Junior" Boehm of Juniors Building Materials.

The alfresco zimlet from StarXpert is not the same as the zimlet described in this thread.
To correct the error you have when you drag and drop an email in the zimlet, you should follow the installation manual provided with the zimlet.
You are right. I had started a new thread but the forum moderator had moved this here stating a duplicate thread.
Even I had used the zimlet in this thread not the starxpert. But that didnt workout for me in Alfresco 3.3g.
So for starxpert zimlet whom should i communicate?
Can anyone give me some info pls? I am stuck.

Situated very near Mulhouse, Basel is one of the liveliest and most enthralling cities in Switzerland. It's worth visiting every year to visit its exceptional museums, as well as to enjoy the charm of a town so full of resources!Customise this route and add it to My travel book
Town Hall
This attractive building erected in the early 16C in a late Gothic style, and subsequently enlarged and restored, has a façade richly decorated with frescos and flanked with a modern belfry. A statue of Munatius Plancus, founder of the town, stands imposingly in the inner courtyard, which is also decorated with attractive frescos.
Basel Old Town
Old Basel, with several interesting monuments to visit including the cathedral, is worth a trip above all for its atmosphere, its very picturesque medieval streets and squares such as Andreasplatz, Spalenberg or Petersgasse. Here you will find several attractive fountains, including that of Holbein (16C), together with the monumental Spalen Gate (1398), decorated with the coats of arms of the city.
This huge building, built of red sandstone, partly rebuilt in the 14 and 15C, and restored in the 19C, is topped with two Gothic towers from which there is a lovely view over the city. The main door is decorated with delicate sculptures of angels and prophets; on the left of the building is that of St-Gall, in Romanesque style. The interior has five naves and houses several 11C decorative elements.
Oberer Rheinweg
This walk, which is limited to the east by Wettsteinbrücke (bridge), offers an attractive view over the old districts of Basel, the palaces and artisan houses which are located at the water's edge.
This prestigious Fine Arts Museum, where major temporary exhibitions are frequently staged, houses within its walls a large number of masterpieces. Pride of place is given to the collection of paintings and drawings from the Upper Rhine and the Netherlands dating from the 15C-17C. The museum's other forte is 19C-20C art, particularly Impressionism, post-Impressionism, Cubism and post-Second World War American art.
Carnival Fountain
The sculptor Jean Tinguely (1925-1991), an ex-pupil of Basel Fine Art School, created this fountain which enlivens the esplanade of the municipal theatre with its water games. The nine jointed metal creations of the huge water feature humorously depict man's futile agitation.
Basel Zoo
In the heart of the city, this huge animal park with an international reputation has become specialised in the reproduction of threatened species. An area is devoted to young animals, another to the vivarium. There are picnic areas, restaurants and games for children available to the public, who particularly appreciate the attractions of the wild animals' and sea-lions' meals, and the introduction to the elephants.
St Alban District
This district owes its name to the oldest monastery in Basel (1083) of which only one wing of the Romanesque cloister remains, now incorporated in a residential house. Several mills bear witness to its specialisation after the creation of a canal by the monks in the 12C. In several locations traces of the old fortifications of the town, destroyed in 1860 and afterwards, are still visible.
Toy Museum
Housed in part of the Wettsteinhaus, a former manor that has been magnificently restored that once belonged to Johann Rudolf Wettstein, burgermaster of Bâle 1645-1666. The museum traces the development of techniques and tastes for toys and games, from puppets and dolls to magic lanterns, figurines to board games. A pleasure for all, big and small.
Beyeler Fondation
Basel-born gallery owner Ernst Beyeler had architect Renzo Piano design this museum in 1997 to show off his collection of 20C paintings and sculptures. The exhibition has 200 masterpieces that together give an overview of modern art. All the major movements of the period are represented: post-Impressionism and Cubism (Cézanne, Van Gogh, Picasso), Abstract art (Kandinsky), Abstract Expressionism (Rothko), Pop Art. Pride of place is given to the sculptures by Swiss artist Giacometti and Monet's Water Lillies.

Human Race | Super Bowl champion coach comes under scrutiny for videotaping opposing coaches
Is Bill Belichick a genius or a cheater? The taciturn head coach of the NFL's New England Patriots has built an impressive coaching career, winning three Super Bowls since 2001. But a cloud formed over those accomplishments last week after the Patriots were caught allegedly videotaping coaches for the New York Jets sending in defensive signals during a Sept. 9 game.
Mastering an opposing team's defensive signals gives an offense a decided advantage, and videotaping signals is against league rules. While the NFL looked into the matter, opposing players and coaches raised questions about the Patriots and Belichick. "It just makes you wonder how long they've been doing this and has it really helped them win some games," New York Giants defensive end Michael Strahan told reporters. "That's no different from the cheating ref in basketball."
Belichick issued an apology of sorts prior to what would normally be a routine mid-week press conference on Sept. 12. "I want to apologize to everyone who has been affected, most of all ownership, staff and players," a statement from Belichick said, but it wasn't clear whether the apology was an admission of guilt. A reportedly standing-room-only group of reporters got nothing more out of the coach: He walked out of the press conference after being questioned repeatedly about the incident.
Tennessee Titans coach Jeff Fisher, co-chairman of the NFL's competition committee, said the league would take swift action if it finds the Patriots guilty of videotaping signals, suggesting that looking the other way would embolden those who would cheat. "The competition committee's responsibility is to protect the integrity of the game," Fisher told the Associated Press. "With technology the way it is right now, things could get out of hand in a matter of weeks if we don't protect the integrity of the game."
Protests: A group of protesters at the University of California, Berkeley, won a court battle over whether they could continue to take up residence in trees that the university wants to cut down to make way for a sports training center. The university said the protest was creating a health hazard, with propane tanks in the makeshift tree houses creating a danger of fire, and with spills of human waste from buckets creating a danger for those below. Alameda County Superior Court Judge Richard Keller said the half dozen protesters could remain in the grove until a full hearing on Oct. 1.
Hollywood: Jane Wyman, Oscar-winning movie actress, first wife of Ronald Reagan, and star of the 1980s TV show Falcon Crest, died Sept. 10 at her home in Rancho Mirage, Calif. The 90-year-old Wyman had been married to Reagan from 1941 to 1949 and had two children with him, daughter Maureen and adopted son Michael. She won the best actress Oscar for her portrayal of a deaf rape victim in the 1948 drama Johnny Belinda.

Tobyhanna Army Depot furloughs begin next week
Tobyhanna Army Depot will begin furloughs next week as a result of automatic federal budget cuts that took hold in March.
The Monroe County facility reported Tuesday that more than 3,500 civilian employees were notified that the first day without pay will be July 12. Col. Gerhard Schroter, depot commander, said the facility will cease industrial operations on 11 straight Fridays through Sept. 20 to comply with Pentagon requirements under budget sequestration.
The furloughs resulted automatically from Congress's inability to reach a budget accord earlier this year.
The reductions slashed the depot's 2013 fiscal plan of $824 million to $742 million, an $82 million cut, according to Tobyhanna.
"The fact of the matter is, $82 million is taken out of our regional economy," said Austin Burke, president of the Greater Scranton Chamber of Commerce. "It's like having 10 percent of their labor force laid off. It's like seeing a layoff of 500 people."
Tobyhanna, which has more than 5,000 workers and is among the region's largest employers, is the military's main base for the maintenance and repair of communications and electronics equipment. About 2,000 Tobyhanna employees live in Lackawanna County and about 1,400 reside in Luzerne County.
Because of the facility's declining workload, Tobyhanna reported that administrators have implemented a hiring freezing and scaled back on the purchase of supplies, facility upgrades, travel and other areas. From March to May, 310 employees accepted early retirement and 333 contract employees have been released since Oct. 1, according to the depot.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Hundreds of people turned out in Anchorage to comment on a proposal that would severely restrict development of a massive gold-and-copper mine in the Bristol Bay region.
The proposal, made by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency last month, effectively would bar the type of project the mine's owner, Northern Dynasty Minerals, has discussed.
The agency is hosting public meetings in Alaska this week, though written comments can be submitted through Sept. 19.
People on both sides of the issue testified about their love of salmon during Tuesday's hearing, the Alaska Dispatch News reported.

But mine opponents said the project, near the headwaters of a world-premier sockeye salmon fishery, posed too great a threat. Some pointed to the partial failure of a tailings dam in British Columbia that sent contaminated slurry into a lake.
Others said the project should be allowed to move through the permitting phase before action is taken that could curtail development.
Tom Collier, CEO of the Pebble Limited Partnership, which is working to advance the project, said it was "ludicrous" to hold a public meeting so soon after releasing a lengthy technical report.
"This hearing is much more about show than it is about substance," he said.
EPA's review of whether to impose restrictions on development, through a rarely invoked process under the federal Clean Water Act, could take a year. The agency's regional administrator, Dennis McLerran, said he was taking notes from the testimony and said the proposal could be modified.
Pebble supporters, though, fear the EPA is on track to pre-emptively veto the project.
The Pebble Partnership and state of Alaska have sued, saying the EPA overstepped its authority. The agency has asked a federal judge to toss the case.
At Tuesday's hearing, tribal leaders, religious leaders, fishermen and environmentalists spoke in support of the EPA.
Mary Ann Johnson, who grew up in Naknek on Bristol Bay, said village residents can't depend on the state to look out for them.
Several legislators also testified, some in support of the EPA's actions, some against.
"I'm just a working stiff like everybody else around here. I'm not a lawyer," said Rep. Pete Higgins, R-Fairbanks, a dentist by trade. "This is not about tribes. This is not about Pebble mine. This is about government overreach."
The Pebble deposit is on state land.
Deantha Crockett, executive director of the Alaska Miners Association, said she regularly takes calls from potential financiers wondering if investing in mining in Alaska is a safe bet. "And I don't know what to say to them," she said.
Everett Thompson, a commercial fisherman from Naknek and Bristol Bay Native Corp. shareholder, urged the EPA to stay tough.
"I believe it to be arrogant to say fishing and mining can coexist," he said.

As you watch the teaser trailer for the finale episode of "True Detective" over and over again searching for vital clues, here's something to lighten the mood in a really great way.
Someone (a genius) has remade the opening credits of "True Detective" in the style of "Law & Order" (the original series, not those lesser spinoffs) and it's awesome. Not only does it perfectly suit the Cary Fukunaga/Nic Pizzolatto series, it also makes us wonder why NBC canceled "Law & Order" in the first place. (Lenny Briscoe forever.) And whoever cut this together made a pretty choice selection of scenes from "True Detective" to use. All told, this rules and is pretty much perfect, so watch below.
