The following is an archive of a post made to our
'vox mailing list'
by one of its subscribers.
I saw this on the ucd.cs.club mailing list, and thought it'd be
appropriate to share here, since we're all into this kind of stuff ;)

I am writing to see if the UCD Computer Science club (or any individual
members of your club) would be interested in doing a small volunteer project
for our non-profit.
I am with Yolo Connections in Woodland, a non-profit that offers social
services to at-risk youth in our community, and we are in desperate need of
a new web site! Our existing site is 4 years old and completely out-dated.
We were hoping that some members of your group may be willing to do few
hours of volunteer work for us and our website?
We are not looking for anything fancy, just a few updates and additions to
what it already there. (We also may need some advice regarding our domain
name.) I know that the work may not be very challenging, given the level of
skill the members of your club possess, but it would mean the world to those
of us trying to get this crucial information out to the public.
Please let me know if this would be a project you are interested in working
on. If you are not interested but you know of another group I could contact,
that information would be appreciated as well.
Thank you for your time,
Sarah Rees
Yolo County Mentoring Ambassador

|After Joy Wells discovers the mysterious bog near her hilltop town of Spooking is in danger from development, she decides she must save it and the endangered species that live there. However, someone is determined to stop her.FIENDISH DEEDS, the first book of The Joy of Spooking trilogy, I wanted to kick off a quirky, comedic mystery that packed some serious chills. I loved the idea of a young heroine who revels in how the worn-out relics of the past still echo with secrets and stories—and that's what I found in Joy Wells. To set the stage for her, I took a lot of inspiration from classic literary figures such as Edgar Allan Poe and H.P. Lovecraft. That said, I wasn't as interested in trying to imitate their startling works as I was in reinventing their fascinating private lives, which were often marked by the bizarre and the tragic. So I recast them as a single character—a reclusive author from a bygone age with a history both sinister and supernatural. It was this story that would become the heart of the mystery surrounding the town of Spooking. This trilogy itself however would be set in the modern day amid the absurd trappings, distractions, and horrors of a world feasting on itself. For that reason I needed a distinctively modern villain, someone both a product and a victim of these times. Someone selfish, greedy, and egotistical in the extreme. What's more, I imagined somebody once a talented artist but who now embodies all the bitterness and frustration of living in obscurity; and who like so many great artists will tragically only be cherished once they are gone. And so it came to me that an aging punk rocker would be a good fit for this villain—and a hilarious one. He would be a person who had gone full circle to become everything he once detested. That character soon developed into Octavio Phipps, a failed musician who now works as assistant to the mayor of a neighboring suburban sprawl. It was then just a case of unleashing him on his mission: to destroy Spooking, the weird old town he blames for his woes…

WHEREAS, methamphetamine is an illegal and highly addictive central nervous system stimulant that can be injected, inhaled, smoked, or ingested orally. Methamphetamine can easily be made using store-bought materials and is the most prevalent synthetic drug manufactured in the United States. The ease of manufacturing methamphetamine and its highly addictive potential have caused the use of the drug to increase throughout the Nation; and
WHEREAS, the effects of methamphetamine.use can include addiction, chronic physical and mental health problems, including psychotic behavior, and brain damage similar to the damage caused by Alzheimer's disease, stroke and epilepsy; and
WHEREAS, according to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, over 12 million United States citizens reported trying methamphetamine at least once in their lifetime. The highest rate of methamphetamine use is among the 26 to 34 age group, with over 800,000 people reporting lifetime methamphetamine use during 2002. Furthermore, 9.8% of high school students in a nationwide survey in 2001 reported using methamphetamine during their lifetimes; and
WHEREAS, law enforcement statistics show an exponential rise in the number of methamphetamine labs in the state, causing Missouri to be the nation's leader in the number of methamphetamine lab seizures. As far back as 1998, Missouri was declared a High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area ("HIDTA") because of the number of clandestine methamphetamine labs located in the state; and
WHEREAS, the manufacturing of methamphetamine is very dangerous due to the fact that the chemicals used are volatile and toxic to the environment. Methamphetamine labs present a clear and present danger to the methamphetamine cook, their children, the community and law enforcement officials; and
WHEREAS, the effects of methamphetamine pose a serious and growing risk to the health, safety and welfare of Missouri citizens and the state's environment, making it necessary to address these increasing risks in a more aggressive, comprehensive and coordinated manner.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, BOB HOLDEN, GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF MISSOURI, by the virtue of the powers vested in me through the constitution and the laws of the State of Missouri, do hereby create and establish the Missouri Methamphetamine Education and Prevention Task Force. The Task Force shall consist of individuals from local, state and federal government, not-for-profit and private sector entities having an interest in addressing the education and prevention of methamphetamine use and manufacturing; and members of local, state and federal law enforcement, including representatives from community-based drug task force coalitions and the National Guard.
The Missouri Methamphetamine Education and Prevention Task Force shall work to reduce and ultimately eliminate the manufacture and use of methamphetamine throughout the State of Missouri. The primary goals of the Task Force shall include, but not be limited to the following:
- education of children, parents, communities, educators, retailers, health-care workers and others about the use and danger of methamphetamine manufacturing and use; and
- education of the public on the recognition and prevention of methamphetamine manufacturing and use; and
- coordination of public and private resources to address the education and prevention of methamphetamine manufacturing and use; and
- establishment of a central resource for information on the education and prevention of methamphetamine manufacturing and use; and
- coordination of efforts with the new Missouri Methamphetamine Treatment Task Force and the Missouri Methamphetamine Enforcement & Environment Protection Task Force to address all facets of the widespread problems created by the manufacturing and use of methamphetamine.
With the creation of this Task Force, I strongly encourage all citizens, agencies and organizations to aid federal, state and local officials to assist and support the Missouri Methamphetamine Education and Prevention Task Force wherever possible in the education and prevention of the illegal use and manufacture of methamphetamines.

How carriers can fight "the death of SMS"
The mobile industry is once again awash in stories about how the sky is falling for carriers' text-messaging revenues: Wireless Intelligence claims "SMS is on the decline," Dean Bubley expects "massive price erosion" for carrier text services this year, and Paul Wallbank celebrates "the death of the short message service."
The cause of these premature autopsies is the rise of messaging within social networks and third-party offerings that incur data charges rather than the overpriced SMS packages most major carriers offer. As Tero Kuittinen recently documented in this solid Forbes piece, revenues have begun to decline in Spain, and SMS usage appears to be on the wane in Finland. But Informa Telecoms & Media predicts a bright near future for SMS, with worldwide revenues climbing from $114.9 billion this year to $135.6 billion in 2016. And there is no evidence that U.S. operators are seeing declines — at least not yet.
BlackBerry Messenger, Apple's iMessage and others are sure to eat into U.S. SMS revenues eventually, but they all still lack the nearly universal interoperability that carriers enjoy. For instance, Apple's iMessage can be used only by a mere 10 percent of the overall U.S. handset market. The key for American carriers, then, is to find ways to entice customers to continue using SMS rather than turning to alternative — and cheaper — services.
Enhanced services
SMS has suffered from a shameful lack of innovation, and it is still the text equivalent of a walkie-talkie: a back-and-forth conversation between two users consisting of simple, 160-character messages. Instead, carrier SMS apps should make it easy to create circles that enable users to send the same message to multiple others with just a few keystrokes rather than adding one user at a time. A coach, for instance, should be able to quickly inform the team if practice has been canceled because of rain. (Plenty of third-party services offer this functionality, and while some carriers support it, they make it difficult for consumers to use.)
Also, consumers should be charged the same price for international SMS as for domestic messages. AT&T, for instance, charges 25 cents per international message, regardless of whether the user has a package. And users on the same network should be able to see not only when their message was sent but also when it was received and read.
There are ways carriers can leverage their position as network operators to make SMS even more attractive than third-party services. Operators should work with carriers to integrate SMS with games and other apps. For example, they could send SMS weather alerts or notifications when adding another dimension to apps (where relevant) as they increase text activity. (Zynga tried and failed here with its Mafia Wars title, but better integration may have seen increased use of SMS.) And instead of dominating their branded services, they should find partners that can help spur SMS uptake and increase customer stickiness. For example, Google is partnering with Orange in Africa to extend the reach of its web-based services via the carrier's SMS platform.
Lowering — not raising — prices
The two largest operators have myopically responded to the rise of third-party services by wringing every last cent out of their subscribers. AT&T eliminated its $10 tier for 1,000 text messages per month, forcing users to choose between a $20 unlimited package or an à la carte offering for 20 cents per message. Verizon Wireless followed suit by eliminating its cheapest SMS package, leaving consumers to choose among a $10 plan for 1,000 texts, a $20 unlimited plan or paying 20 cents per message.
But those moves could be costly in the long run. An iPhone owner, for instance, may find he uses iMessage enough that he can drop a text package and pay 20 cents each for the few messages that aren't delivered through iOS. Reconsidering those lower-end packages and giving users more flexibility may keep them from straying. And with an average markup in the range of 4,000 percent, operators can clearly afford smaller margins.
Making the best of a losing battle
There is no question that the days of lucrative SMS revenues are numbered for operators. Facebook, Twitter, iMessage and countless others will slowly erode the cash cow that is SMS, and text messaging — like voice — will eventually become just another kind of data coming through the pipe. That change won't occur for a few more years, because no one can match SMS' universality. Operators who are innovative and take a longer-term view of the market will be able to maximize SMS revenues for at least the next three years, and those who do it well may find those businesses last far longer.

Pretty Little Liars
Is Pretty Little Liars' Holden in a Secret Fight Club? (POLL)
We're dying to know more about Aria's (Lucy Hale) new friend Holden on Pretty Little Liars. He's handsome, charming, and a hero, but what's he hiding?
Here's what we know: Holden's keeping a major secret from his parents, he has a mysterious baggie of pills in his backpack, and he's rocking an enormous bruise on the side of his six-pack.
Who knows what Holden is doing with those pills (hopefully not poppin' them!), but maybe his bruise can be explained. We previously thought that Holden may have been the person who was hit by Hanna's car in Season 2, Episode 14: "Through Many Dangers, Toils, and Snares." However, Holden displayed some serious ninja moves when he saved Aria from Noel in Season 2, Episode 19: "The Naked Truth." Could his bruise be a result of practicing his martial arts moves in secret?
Do you think Holden is involved in a secret fight club? Vote in our poll below.
Pretty Little Liars airs Mondays at 8 pm ET/PT on ABC Family.

Julliard to Bring Jazz Workshop to Oxbridge Academy in 2013
Aspiring jazz musicians in Florida will have the opportunity to train with fellows and faculty members from the prestigious Juilliard School, due to a new program between the world renowned performing arts conservatory and Oxbridge Academy of the Palm Beaches. The new, independent high school in West Palm Beach, FL, was named as one of only six schools around the world selected to host a Juilliard Jazz Summer 2013 Workshop.
Taught by Juilliard's Jazz Division faculty and graduate students, the two week-long sessions are designed to give middle and high school students a taste of the Juilliard experience. The curriculum focuses on refining technique, performance, improvisation, theory, ear training, small combo training and broadening students' understanding of various jazz styles. The rigorous program will also prepare students for a future in music by teaching them essential skills and offering the opportunity to meet working, successful artists who have achieved a high status in the industry. The daily schedule will include a musicianship class, individual practice, ensemble work, big band rehearsal and conclude each day with a jam session.
"The joint program with The Juilliard School aligns perfectly with Oxbridge Academy's mission to provide a world-class, life-defining educational experience to students," said Robert C. Parsons, President and CEO of Oxbridge Academy. "Our own music program is run by one of Florida's best known music teachers, and he has an exciting, ambitious vision for the future of Oxbridge's music curriculum. We will additionally extend this opportunity to as many talented musicians as our campus can accommodate."
Cleve Maloon, who joined Oxbridge Academy in June as director of music programs, facilitated bringing the Juilliard Jazz Summer Workshop to the school. Maloon has deep connections within the music community, having taught for 11 years at the celebrated Bak Middle School of the Arts, which hosted the Juilliard Jazz Summer Workshops for the past two years.
"To be musically trained by The Juilliard School is the ultimate dream for any artist, regardless of age," said Maloon. "The young musicians who attend these workshops will have the opportunity to learn from the best of the best and get a glimpse of the college experience. Applications are accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis, and every skill level from beginner to advanced will be accommodated."
The experienced Juilliard Jazz faculty combines a remarkable variety of technical and musical skill, as demonstrated on stages and in recording studios around the world. Current faculty members and past instructors of the summer workshops include Carl Allen, celebrated drummer and the artistic director of Jazz Studies at Juilliard; noted saxophonist Ron Blake; accomplished pianist, composer and arranger Xavier Davis; and guitar great Rodney Jones.
Oxbridge Academy will host the workshops at its beautiful, 54-acre campus, featuring a 400-seat performance center and auditorium, specially designed music rehearsal hall, and a music theory lab. The top-tier college preparatory school offers a dynamic educational experience through a project-based curriculum that is research-driven, employs the latest technology and focuses on individual depth of learning. The faculty was drawn from around the world and chosen for their academic credentials, proven teaching skills and demonstrated ability to inspire students to fall in love with learning. Founded by William I. Koch and opened September 2011, the school offers an unprecedented need-based financial aid program to ensure a talented and diverse student body.
The Juilliard workshops will be held at Oxbridge Academy from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. June 10-14 for students in grades 6-8 and June 17-21 for students in grades 9-12. The student-teacher ratio will be approximately 9:1, and the program will concentrate on trumpet, saxophone, trombone, guitar, piano, double bass, electric bass and drums, but no vocals. The cost is $350, and applicants should be dedicated, disciplined and passionate about jazz.
For more details, visit www.juilliard.edu/summerjazz or call (212) 799-5000 ext.7380.
To register for the program at Oxbridge Academy, call Marie Reese at (561) 972-9600 or visit www.oapb.org

A few days ago I received an e-mail allegedly from UPS (UPS is a global delivery company for those that don't know):
I immediately knew that this was a scam email so I turned on all my defensive methods and opened the email. You should not do this at home [or at work for that matter].
Then, just like something an innocent computer user may do, I tried to download the attachment that came with the e-mail. Again, you should not do this at home [or work].
There was immediately a warning from ESET NOD32, my active antivirus, saying that there was a threat in the download:
With all the cards laid out on the table, it is fairly clear that this was a hoax that was trying to take advantage of those not-so-technically-knowledgeable computer users who
- Open e-mails that they are not familiar with;
- Download the attachments that come with those e-mails and install a Trojan in their computer, allowing the cybercriminial who sent the email to control the victim's computer.
Similar to the UPS hoax I just mentioned, there are many other such e-mail scams out in the wild; tt could be a "Facebook password reset", a "Bank of America" or similar. Do not fall for this kind of thing.
So, how to protect oneself? Here are some tips to help you spot a scam e-mail:
- Were you expecting an e-mail from [insert company name here]? For example, did you expect a UPS package delivery? If no, then the e-mail is probably a scam.
- Have you, in the past, provided your e-mail address to [insert company name here]? If no, then the e-mail is probably a scam.
- Does the e-mail from [insert company name here] include your name? If no, then the e-mail is probably a scam.
- Is the e-mail asking you to reply with personal information (i.e. full name, address, bank account number, credit card number, etc.)? If yes, then the e-mail is probably a scam. (Sometimes legitimate companies do ask you for personal information, but they will never request it via e-mail – you will probably be asked to submit it via their website.)
- UPS, banks, or any other legitimate company/website will never send you emails requesting your password. If your bank really uses email to do so, you might seriously consider abandoning this bank. Instead, most companies will use telephone to inform you of account problems.
- In the case of UPS (or FedEx, DHL, etc.), they may send you e-mails informing you about delivery delays or problems, but those e-mails will never contain any sort of attachment for you to download.
- Sometimes e-mails – even legitimate e-mails – can contain links for you to follow. If the e-mail is from a scammer, often times the links will be "spoofed" (i.e. you think they are taking you somewhere but they take you elsewhere). When you see a link in an e-mail you should not visit it unless you are 110% sure the e-mail is from a legitimate source. Rather, you should right-click the link and "Copy Link Location"/"Copy Hyperlink" or something similar. Then, open Notepad and paste the URL. After pasting the URL, analyze the URL and verify that it is infact taking you to the proper website (look at the beginning of the URL to see which domain it is taking you to). Look especially for letters that can be easily substituted for each other, like L and I.
- Thanks to Twitter, URL shorteners are very popular nowadays. If an e-mail contains a URL that uses a URL shortener, unshorten the URL before analyzing it using a URL unshortening service.
- Sometimes there are "urgent" or similar words in the subject of a scam e-mail.
- Check the date of the e-mail (and any date mentioned within) for any unreasonable dates. For example, I was alleged to have sent a package via UPS last December. If there are any unreasonable dates in the e-mail, the e-mail is probably a scam.
- Often times a scammer will try to "spoof" the e-mail to make you think it is from a trusted source. Spoofing can be done primarily of two ways:
- Changing the "From" name to an e-mail address. For example, you may get an e-mail from firstname.lastname@example.com <email@example.com> or eBay Customer Service <email@example.com>. The "From" name says firstname.lastname@example.com/eBay Customer Service so you may think the e-mail is from eBay. However, the e-mail is actually from firstname.lastname@example.com. This type of spoofing is fairly easy to spot – just double check the "From" e-mail address instead of just looking at the "From" name.
- The actual "From" e-mail address may display the e-mail from a trusted source. For example, you may get an e-mail from email@example.com <firstname.lastname@example.com> or Yahoo Inc <firstname.lastname@example.com>. In this case both the "From" name and e-mail address indicate that the e-mail is from Yahoo. In reality, however, the e-mail is not from Yahoo – it has been spoofed to make you think it is from Yahoo. This type of spoofing is harder to spot since the "From" name and e-mail address are both spoofed; when you come across this type of e-mail you need to use the other points mentioned in this list to protect yourself.
- Make sure you have security software installed on your computer. If you accidentally do fall into a scammer's trap, security software can often save you. (See Ashraf's best free security software list.)
- If it looks suspicious or too good to be true, it probably is – so stay away from the e-mail.
Good luck to everyone and stay safe!

I value the blog article. Keep writing.
If you're ever in doubt about the legitimacy of a UPS email be sure to contact UPS by phone prior to opening it – UPS Phone Number

We're also seeing a lot of messages from "Microsoft Computer Security Department" regarding running a supplied "computer security scan" attachment.
Thanks for the information, it's very helpful. May I use it for some friends and customers?
I just received a offer to transfer a big ammount of money from
Sir. John Dickson From: The Accountant,
Gulf Bank International,
4 Enfield Road, Etham.
with privat email at:mailto:email@example.com
I could be rich very soon……if…..let the dream be true.
by the way Thunderbird shows the real link when you go over with the mouse.
I agree with everything the others have said about the phishing emails, however I noticed one thing was missing, and I'm surprised no one else has mentioned it.
When you hover (do not click on it) your cursor over a link in the phishing email, look at the bottom left side of your browser. It will show you the site it will take you to. 9 times out of 10 it will show a link that has nothing to do with the so called company that supposedly sent you the email.
The rare time it shows a link that is supposedly from the site they say it is from it generally isn't, but rather something similar. When in doubt, contact the real company to see if they indeed sent that email.
Hey Ashraf… why are the text on your computer Chinese? You can read chinese!? If so, I'm impressed. Hold on a minute… Ashraf is chinese!? O_O
The two biggest tip-offs to scam e-mails: misspellings and bad English. (In the e-mail above, 'recipient address is inexact' is the clue.)
One more thing – if you see a scam, it's not necessarily wise to be a good netizen and report it to the company being spoofed. I did this with a fake PayPal e-mail a few years ago, and even though I made it clear that I had *not* been fooled, they told my credit card company that my account had been compromised. My credit card company cancelled my card – of course, they reissued another, but it's such a pain to have to change your information at all the sites with the card number.
I received several alerts by my Earthlink Virus Blocker, that UPS sent a virus infected email. In the 5 years of having Earthlink Email, I havn't ever had a virus sent to me, so I wasn't sure what to do. I was waiting for a package, so just in case, I went to the UPS.com and asked about the "delivery problem", that the email had on subject line. UPS emailed back within 12 hours and asked me to foward the email to their provided link. UPS also let me know that it was fraudulent and to forward any questionable emails to them at email@example.com. I know that time is key for lots of people, but I didn't have all the tips from Ashraf (Thank You, Kind Sir), to check the emails origin.
When in doubt, check it out;)
I haven't had the UPS emails, however my sexual inadequacy is apparently common knowledge on the net…
And I bought a UPS and take that home in my car and then I started receiving such mails (although I knew these are spam), but I just starting thinking, "How the heck they got some information about my UPS?? " :) LOL… (just kidding).
Thank you – I didn't realize it could come from the ISP. I just recently switched from Surewest to Time Warner Cable, so maybe it will get better…? I dropped the phone service (and went with Magic Jack) and cable (why bother when I don't have time to watch anything and most things aren't worth watching?!) and so TWC was the least expensive for "just" internet. There is no way I could survive anymore (what was I thinking to live in a time where I had to write a thesis on a typewriter? lol) without my 'net and computer – I create, stay organized, communicate, etc… and so it was the only thing I couldn't let go of! lol But, I think most people are looking for ways to be a bit more frugal these days.
Thanks for responding so quickly.
@Sandy: Depends on your ISP, among other things. I use Earthlink and their spam filters are very good – they use Spamassassin – and Gmail addresses otherwise. I especially like the way they hold certain suspect/spam messages for you to look over. Some ISPs, like ATT and Comcast, just arbitrarily dump what they consider spam so you have no option to review anything.
I've found the UPS emails on the upswing, too. My favorites are the Facebook password resets – I don't have a Facebook account (or any other social networking)!!
I've been advising a close friend about these all along; at least she's remembered not to open unknown emails with attachments, so I've been successful there…
@dbrookman: I've had the same problem with paypal, yahoo, facebook, credit cards, banks, and UPS! I have Kapersky installed and use yahoo for email, but can't believe I still get so many…and from so many different sources! My privacy is set to mid-high – should I do anything else? Funny thing is, other than phishing emails, I rarely get just run of the mill spam.
I've had several PayPal scams by e-mail.
I always go to Paypal direct using another computer which uses a different log in name. If I still have a concern (I did in December 2009), I called Paypal direct. It was not a toll free number but the small cost was worth it.
I started getting the UPS ones about two months ago.I recognized them as phishing attempts at the very least,and dispatched them to the trash without opening them.Too bad I don't have the skills to send a nasty little virus back to them!

David . Kreator isnt death metal. They are Thrash metal
Maybe 20 years ago. Now they are almost pure melodic death metal.
Not at all. Death metal is raw and almost to brutal (for me it is). It has growl vocals. Kreator isnt even near the death metal…
Not really. I am talking about melodic death, not ordinary death metal. Listen to bands such as Amon Amarth or Arch Enemy—riffs from Enemy Of God, Hordes Of Chaos and Phantom Antichrist are pure melodic death riffs, the only difference is the vocals. Somewhere they even dive into power metal
The only think "death metal" about "melodic death metal" is the singing. One you take that away it is hardly "death" anymore. But I agree that Kreator have been inspired by this genre but in my opinion they are doing a much better job at it than those lousy people from Gothenburg and Finland.
The thing is this; whenever a band change direction it is always hard to swallow. But just because they are doing a melodic album in 2012 does not mean that this is the way they will sound from now on. As much as I was let down by the direction Kreator went in the 90's, it is much easier for me to appreachiate that music now when I know that it is in the past and not where they are at now.
That said I really like the new album and I don't think they could have done a better job in the way they decided to change direction. This still sound like Kreator with the fucked up tempos and Milles singing and twisted arrangements. All bands should feel free to experiment a bit as long as they stay true to the core of what they are about.

Fred Thompson, the kitchen wizard behind this project, wanted to make sure to include a recipe for all the bean-loving chili fans out there. His time-tested recipe has seen its fair share of Tar Heel games and Appalachian State University parking lots.
YIELD: Serves 20
1. Soak the dried beans according to the package directions and drain. In a pot, combine the beans with enough water to cover by two inches. Bring just to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer the beans until almost tender, about an hour.
2. Set an eight-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat. In batches, add the beef and pork. Cook, breaking the meat up with a spoon, until well browned (don't crowd the pot or the meat will steam, not brown). Transfer each batch to a bowl using a slotted spoon.
3. Heat the drippings in the same pot over medium heat. Add the bell peppers, onions, chili powder, cumin seeds, and oregano; cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 15 minutes. Add the tomatoes with their juice and the reserved meat, and simmer for one hour. Add the beans and simmer until the chili is thickened and the beans are tender, about an hour longer. Stir in the parsley, salt, and pepper. Garnish each serving with onion, cheese, sour cream, and salsa.

A measure of the opposition to the flow of alternating current through a circuit. Impedance is measured in ohms. The resistance of a circuit to direct current (also measured in ohms) is generally not the same as its impedance, due to the effects of capacitance and induction in and among the components of the circuit. See also impedance matching.
A measure of the apparent resistance posed by an electrical circuit to an alternating current (AC).
Note: The term impedance is most often encountered in dealing with antennas and speakers in television, stereo, and radio systems.
electronics, physics
Opposition to flow of alternating current. Impedance consists of resistance plus reactance (capacitive or inductive). Measured in Ohms.

Gamers hoping to play Aliens: Colonial Marines in spring 2012 won't have that opportunity. In a statement provided to the GameStop-owned Game Informer magazine, Sega and Gearbox Software revealed that the sci-fi first-person shooter has been delayed to fall 2012.
"Aliens: Colonial Marines is a process of creativity and invention and those don't necessarily follow the structure of an assembly line," reads a line from the statement provided to Game Informer.
"While setting clear goals, deadlines and predictions is helpful, they are often subjective. We don't want to sacrifice the creative process just for the sake of following a blueprint. We prefer to have the creative discovery shape that blueprint because our goal is to make a great game, and we are prioritizing this goal over the previously targeted date."
When it does ship, Aliens: Colonial Marines will arrive for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. Its story will pick up shortly after the events of the 1986 sci-fi film Aliens. Players will join a squad of the titular space soldiers who board the USS Sulaco, the spaceship from the film, after it is apparently abandoned. From there the action will spread to the surface of the planet LV-426 and its main settlement, Hadley's Hope. The first-person shooter will also feature environments and weapons inspired by the film.

She was almost a Christmas present, but she decided to wait. This way, she has another fun day to celebrate the day after Christmas. She's a smart one Baby Amelia arrived to loving and excited parents and a proud big brother on December 26, 2011. We were there not long after to document this amazing time for this family. We were there just the week before for their maternity session!
When capturing moments like these for families, we want to answer the questions "How was I loved" and "What did that love look like?" We very much focus on the relationship between the parent(s) and the child. You can also get a better sense of the itty-bittyness of newborns when they are cradled by their parents. We use what is unique to each child as opposed to props brought in. We document things that are meaningful and sentimental, like the hand-made quilt or custom blanket displaying the child's name. These are important items that are unique to you, not photographer-bought cute props that mean nothing to you and your child.
I love this newborn session. You can see and feel the love for this baby. You can feel their deep gratitude for this little miracle they've been blessed with. We are so honored to be alongside them to capture their journey as they navigate the first year with precious Baby Amelia.
Thanks again, Matt & Stasia, for choosing us to be a part of and capture this most precious time in your journey through parenthood. It's the toughest and most rewarding job you'll ever have. See you soon!
[...] It's so cute at this age. She loves putting everything in her mouth. Make sure to see her newborn and maternity sessions too. We can't wait to see how much she changes again by her next [...]

NAMIBIA are well set to scoop a host of medals when the tennis finals at the FASU Games take place this morning.
Namibia are already assured of a gold medal in the women's singles competition after Imke Honiball and Riekie Honiball progressed to the final, while Jean Erasmus will meet Yasri Hichem of Algeria in the men's final.
Namibia also won their first gold medal in the women's doubles competition which was concluded yesterday, while they are also well set for gold in the men's doubles competition.
It was only in the mixed doubles competition where they did not dominate, as Algeria managed to win the gold medal yesterday.
In yesterday's men's singles semifinals, the top-seeded Jean Erasmus easily beat Thesly Mucunda of Zimbabwe 6-0, 6-1 to progress to the final.
Erasmus was just too strong for Mucunda and served several aces while he mixed his game up well with groundstrokes and volleys at the net.
Yasri Hichem of Algeria also easily reached the final as he beat Fritchard Mulenga of Zambia 6-1, 6-1 in their semifinal encounter.
Erasmus said he was looking forward to the final.
"I'm in good form and hope to do well in the final. I've watched Hichem play, he has a big serve and he plays a patient and consistent game from the back line, but his volleys are not so good. So I will try and serve and volley more and bring him more to the net," Erasmus said.
"This tournament has provided a great opportunity and it's great that countries like Algeria are also here," he added.
The women's singles semifinals were also quite one-sided.
The top seed Imke Jagau beat Mwenge Domingo of Zambia 6-0, 6-1, while the fourth-seeded Riekie Honiball of Namibia beat the second-seeded Fatima Boukezzi of Algeria 6-2, 6-3.
After her victory, Honiball said she just tried to remain patient and wear her opponent down.
"She is a clay court specialist, but I just tried to remain patient while I also attacked her backhand more," she said.
Honiball said she was looking forward to a good final.
"Imke is in good shape and playing well and it should be a good match," she said.
In the men's doubles competition, the Namibian team of Jean Erasmus and Henco Serdyn beat Zambia 6-3, 6-4 in their opening match. They just need to beat Algeria to claim the gold medal.
In the women's doubles competition, Honiball and Jagau won the gold medal after they beat Algeria 6-4, 6-3 and Botswana 6-0, 6-1.
Algeria won gold in the mixed doubles competition after beating the Namibian team of Eric Verburg and Carita Moolman 7-6, 7-6 in a close match.
The finals will start at 09h00 at the SKW courts this morning.

You and I make a great team... when I'm right your wrong and when your wrong I'm right!
I am loving, caring and giving. Three words I hear most to describe myself: funny, crazy, weird. I enjoy the summers in Colorado most. My two kids love being outdoors just as much as I do. I have four brothers 35, 28, 15 and 11 ...no sisters, so I am more of a tom boy than a girly girl. I like most all music....yes including country. I've spent my entire life working customer service/retail, to say the least I like being around people and get along with most everyone. I consider myself very smart and occasionally experience moments of "extra smartness". When I was 18 I worked in the paint department at The Home Depot. I hauled more paint than the 5 guys I worked with and matched paint colors better than computer color match machine. On a busy Saturday a customer asked me how to remove caulking. I called my manager to ask. His response was to use a putty knife and lots of elbow grease. In a rush I asked (yes, asked the MANAGER) what aisle we would find elbow grease..... oh well, I learned something new, think before you speak.
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Hobbies and crafts , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas
Auto racing / Motorcross, Baseball, Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Football, Golf, Swimming
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Cats, Dogs, Fish, Horses
I grew up with Chow Chows, bunnies, birds and a pet tarantula named Charlotte. I don't have any pets but I like most animals!!
Some other viewpoint
I was born in Utah, have been to California, Nevada, Europe: France, Germany, Holland and England. Out of all the places I have been I LOVE Disney Land the most!!!!
There are too many songs I like to name a favorite, but I do not really listen much to heavy metal or rap. I tend to like comedies, shows and movies. Not really into sci-fi, have never seen any of the Twilight movies.
Lately, I have been hooked on Song Pop. I love swimming and going to the lake. I like golfing but don't get to go as often as I'd like. Love bowling with the kids and playing Mario Kart with my kids and little brothers

The Making of a Cross Canada Route

I like your original premise which was a guy on a adventure tourer (not a dirt bike with bags) which means the highly technical stuff is a no-no.
But if the route could be mostly gravel or back roads (that includes paved but twisty) then great!
I think it would be important to schedule the 4C
to swing though a town/city every few hundred kms...not just for gas but to also allow riders the option to shuttle past certain sections of the trail by joining up to highway. Obviously you guys wouldn't need to map those spots :)
That would be the best of both worlds IMHO.
Keep up the great work!!!
Some good suggestions. We're hoping that a travel enduro bike (klr, ktm adv, bmw gs, etc) will be completely able to ride this route. My guess at this point is a breakdown of something along these lines
50 % gravel roads
20 % double track gravel roads
15 % rail trails
10 % "off roading"
5 % pavement
The offroading should be suitable albeit challenging for a bigger bike ;). Heck it wouldn't be much fun without a bit of adventure.
Is a rail trail offroading ? Sure I suppose, although they usually don't have steep hills, sharp corners, etc but they often have old bridges, loose rocky or sandy surfaces, pot holes, water, etc
How hard is the offroading ? Nothing crazy, we aren't interested in making this a motocross route. NO single track, no water crossing deeper than front wheel (of course this is hard to judge but we're doing our best to make this realistic, entire sections are being omitted because of one quesionable water crossing :( ). A lot of this could be described as atv type trails.
What's a double track gravel road ? A road open to the public, non paved and only wide enough for one car. Surfaces are often close to offroading in terrain. These types of roads are perfect and if they were available across the entire country I'd be tempted to make an entire route out of them. But these roads are unique to certainly areas so we trying our best to include as many of them as possible.
What's a gravel road ? Big, wide and dusty :). The surface can be challenging when freshly graded but other than that they are fairly straight forwad terrain wise. The Trans Labrador Highway will be included in the route as well as several long gravel roads through northern Ontario.

The location is very convenient, close to 270.The room is very clean and the bathroom is large. Staff are very friendly.
Couple of issues I have are no breakfast and the fridge is very noisy.
June 25, 2015
Employees were polite and helpful when needed. Pet fees are EXTREMELY reasonable. Room was clean and roomy. Only complaint is that the recliner did not fully recline. I highly recommend this location!
Another place next time

Dice ripe tomatoes and combine with raw corn kernels, diced avocado, chopped cilantro, and fresh lime juice. Add some minced serrano chile for a little heat. Season with salt and more lime juice.
Very nice. I did not have Serranos so I jazzed it up with a 1/4 cup plain yogurt, 1/4 tsp ground cayenne, and 1/2 tsp honey.

"All Things To You" CD
$10.98 - Buy CD
Creating aural landscapes that are at once lush with intimacy and tinged with bittersweet cynicism, The Cucumbers have been making inventive and quirky pop songs for nearly two decades. Anchored by husband and wife team Deena Shoshkes and Jon Fried, The Cucumbers have built a solid and devoted following, garnering praise from critics and fans since the mid-eighties.
Now, with the addition of bassist Kurt Wrobol and drummer Steve Villano to round out the lineup, The Cucumbers are happy to present their sixth release, "All Things to You," mastered by Roger Moutenot (They Might Be Giants, Lou Reed, Yo La Tengo). Adding undertones of disquiet to velvet vocals and intricate guitar textures, The Cucumbers craft an intriguing mix of sibilance, rust, penance, joy, and modest ecstasy. The album features more than a handful of emotive gems — subtly jaded, up-beat odes to love and the working class — that make "All Things to You" The Cucumbers' best work to date.
1. Right here, right now
2. Whiskey
3. Bad Attitude
4. You Know It's all Right
5. Bend me like a Willow
6. Happiness
7. Musicians I Know
8. Fog

Picture: Nelly The CW Celebrates 'The Next' And Mentor Joe Jonas' Birthday at Perch 15.08.12 - Los Angeles, California
Rapper Nelly was left shocked and stunned when police in Texas found drugs on his tour bus on Thursday morning (11Oct12) - because he had no idea a member of his entourage had allegedly smuggled heroin and marijuana aboard.
The rap star and fellow passengers were briefly detained by border cops in Sierra Blanca after a stash of drugs was uncovered during a routine vehicle search.
Brian Keith Jones, an associate of the star, was taken into custody after confessing the drugs were his - and Nelly was allowed to continue his journey.
Speaking to Tmz.com on Thursday afternoon, the Hot in Herre hitmaker said, "It is my understanding a member of my staff made an unfortunate decision to bring unlawful materials onto our tour bus that resulted in his arrest this morning.
"Neither I nor anyone else on the tour bus was aware of his decision to bring these on board. Law enforcement officials did not press charges against anyone other than that individual."

New Stamps Issued
| Pyongyang, April 7 (KCNA) -- The State Stamp Bureau of the DPRK brought out new stamps, including two kinds of sheetlets.
One of the sheetlets features the view of the Munsu Water Park built fashionably on the bank of the Taedong River in Pyongyang City.
The other one, issued to mark the 2014 International Year of Family Farming and the 2014 International Year of Crystallography, pictures a wheat-reaping machine, a photo of X-ray discoverer, Roentgen and a piece of ice crystal.
An individual stamp, issued to mark the 120th anniversary of the Kapo Peasant War, features Jon Pong Jun, who was a leader of the peasant uprisers, as well as uprisers in fighting the Japanese army.
The war, launched by the Korean peasants across the country against the feudal rulers and the Japanese invaders, demonstrated the people's ardent patriotism and their might of unity.

Whether you sell a service, a product, or content, you're creating value for your customer base – and every interaction with your product online is a measurable amount of value, Harvard Business Review says. To understand and utilize this, implement well-executed A/B testing, which involves, at its core, showing different user experiences to different users to measure the impact of those differences.
Keep the team small. You only need an engineer, a designer/front-end developer, and a business analyst to perform tests. Make sure that your product person has the skills to analyze tests promptly.
Test small changes. If you're spending a lot of time creating a test, you're doing it wrong. Find the smallest possible amount of development you can do to create a test based on your hypothesis; one variable at a time is best.
When a test fails, don't give up. Instead, learn what happened (which metric did move?), and use that to inform future iterations. Keep a backlog of previously run tests, and retest ideas later.

It was another busy weekend for the presidential campaigns.
GOP Nominee Mitt Romney spent time campaigning in the prized battleground state of Florida. President Obama raised funds in California, including a high profile concert in Los Angeles.
The flurry of activity comes on the heels of new job numbers. According to the Labor Department, U.S. employers added 114,000 jobs in September, bringing the unemployment rate down to 7.8 percent.
Republican Strategist Jack Burkman and Democratic Strategist Richard Fowler discussed that and other issues on Capital Insider.

Blast near UK, Canada embassies rattles Tripoli
Men examine a car destroyed in a blast near embassies in Tripoli (AFP / MAHMUD TURKIA)
TRIPOLI, Libya -- A possible car bomb went off in front of the Tripoli Towers in Libya, Tuesday near the British and Canadian embassies, officials said.
A car was destroyed but conflicting reports called it a car bombing or a rocket-propelled grenade attack aimed at the building, which houses the embassies and a host of company offices in the heart of the city's downtown business district. Some reports suggested the rocket missed its intended target and struck the car instead.
Rick Roth, a spokesman for the Canadian foreign minister, said on Twitter the Canadian Embassy was closed at the time of the attack and all embassy employees were safe.

The use of thin membranes to suspend an inertial fusion energy fuel capsule in a holder or hohlraum for injection into a reaction chamber is investigated. Also discussed is the stress that occurs in the fuel within a capsule during acceleration. To determine the maximum target acceleration, capsule displacement and membrane deformation angle are calculated for an axisymmetric geometry for a range of membrane strain and capsule size. Membranes must be thin (perhaps < 1 µm) to minimize their effect on capsule implosion symmetry. Typical target injection scenarios prefer accelerations in excess of 1000 m/s2. Acceleration in excess of 1600 m/s2 for a 2.4-mm-radius 30-mg capsule is possible with two 0.1-µm-thick membranes. Added stress from vibrations could cause a factor of 2 decrease in the allowed acceleration unless the acceleration profile is modified to mitigate this effect. However, if the acceleration is gradually increased and then decreased, over a few membrane oscillation periods (i.e., a few milliseconds), the membrane stress due to oscillation overshoot and the final capsule oscillation amplitude is minimal. Compared with a single membrane, a dual membrane geometry allows several times greater acceleration with reduced capsule displacement.

Alternative fuel pumps for FI KTM990
View Single Post
Life is a trip
Joined: Nov 2005
Location: East Med, Greece
Oddometer: 4,177
I finally have a product ready to sell!
Mission accomplished. The chinese fuel pump after some surgery ends up a nice fit in place of the original fuel pump. Rated at 3,5 bar at 90lit/h, pressure and quantity is going to be adequate at all times.
The elastic base which holds the fuel pump from turning when it starts and stops. The lower side of the fuel pump needs to fit to the rubber cavities. So some surgery was needed.
Modified Chinese fuel pump
Original fuel pump for comparison
Upper side of the pump had some extra plastic around the connections that needs removing, in order to fit in the cage.
The shape of the original fuel pump is slightly different to the Chinese imitation so the shorter supporting cage is not functional. The outer larger cage needs some spacers in order to reach the aluminum pump nest, so longer bolts and nuts rectify that imperfection.
So a complete set includes 2 longer bolts 1.5cm M5, 2 nuts and and an o-ring 60X3 viton since it usually gets damaged. I also include a small o-ring at the intake of the pump and an alouminum spacer to be installed at the bottom of the bronze pipe.

Howard, Clark awarded Solomons honour The Solomon Islands has awarded Prime Minister John Howard the nation's highest honour for Australia's role in restoring security in the Pacific country. The Star of the Solomon Islands was awarded to both Howard and New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark as co-leaders with the Solomons government in the peace effort, the New Zealand government said. An Australian-led contingent of 3,000 military police and civilian personnel known as the Regional Assistance Mission to Solomon Islands (RAMSI) began operations in the troubled nation in July 2003. The Solomons government invited the mission after law and order broke down on the islands amid fighting between warring factions. theage.com.au 21 Jun 05

Finally, I'm available online for chatting, or on Clarkston or Dunwoody campuses when appointments are made ahead of time.

The Starkville School District Board of Trustees approved changes to the 2010-2011 school calendar during a special called board meeting Thursday afternoon, including the addition of a Saturday school day. Â Â
The dates for make-up days due to the snow are April 16, April 25, May 20 and May 23. Â
April 16, which is a Saturday, will be an early release day for staff and students. May 23 is the last day for students, and it will be a 60 percent day for students. Â Teacher work days will be May 24 and 25. Â Â
"In an effort to recover at least two days of lost instructional time prior to state testing in May, it was necessary to add a Saturday school day to the calendar," said Supt. Judy Couey.  "The Monday following Easter Sunday is already included in the school calendar to be used as a makeup snow day if necessary," Couey added.
Graduation will be held Sunday, May 15 at 3 p.m. at the Humphrey Coliseum on Mississippi State's campus. The date was changed because Friday, May 20 is now a regular school day due to snow days missed in January and February.  A provision in the Mississippi Public School Accountability Standards allows schools to host graduation prior to the end of school. Â
A baseball game at MSU on Friday, May 20 prevented SHS from hosting graduation after the regular school dismissal time. Â The Starkville School District apologizes for any inconvenience caused by this change.
The SSD has posted the changes to the school calendar on their website. Â The district also issued an AlertNow message Thursday evening informing parents and employees of the changes to the school calendar.
