See how the race from the 6th Annual Dirksen Derby went down in the photo gallery. For everything else behind the scenes, read on.
Terje Haakonsen, Rip Zinger, Russel Winfield, JP Martin, and Dave Seoane spin laps off the Sunrise Express Chair. Bend's own Austin Smith, Curtis Ciszek, and Jake Price barge practice laps with Bryan Fox and Scott E. Wittlake. Temple Cummins cruises runs with his son Cannon. Rome's Bjorn Leines, Marie-France Roy, Jordan Phillips, Derrek Lever, Victor Simco, and Cody Booth, huck as many hit run backflips as they can for their 12 Months project. But no matter what's going on before or after their banked slalom runs, everyone talks strategy: Which course to qualify on, which wax to use, how to milk the most speed out of the berms, to air or to pump? Despite the loose vibe there's an edge of seriousness that creeps in—heavy bragging rights are at stake especially for the Elite division riders like Smith, Wittlake, Ciszek, and Price. Side bets are made among crews with losers facing such consequences as hair-dying and piercings. Rumors of rider's buying 150 dollar bars of wax spread. Boards are baked in "hot box" wax ovens.
As this scene plays out at Mt. Bachelor the snow keeps coming down, collecting inches deep on the rows of cars in the Sunrise lodge parking lot. Mixed among them there's Nick Dirk's Vantasy van, a relic from the '70s that's been jacked-up and kitted with four-wheel-drive. With a balaclava clad Dirks behind the wheel this thing is either your worst nightmare or the best thing you've ever seen (depending on your previous experience with vans). There's the tricked-out '93 Subaru Loyale of the newly formed Go Boardin crew of Alex Yoder, Kael Martin, Blake Paul, Sam Tuor, and Lucas Debari (his sister Maria filling in on this trip while Lucas is in Antarctica). There's Matt Edger's '76 Toyota Chinook camper, his home away from home.
It's all the backdrop to one of snowboarding's most fun events, which drew close to 500 people this year. And it's all put on by Josh Dirksen to help benefit Tyler Eklund, who was paralyzed in a crash at the USASA Nationals in 2007, and to raise awareness about spinal cord injuries. The charity event brought in over 30,000 dollars, almost doubling the 17,000 dollars raised last year.

The recent news that data from 40 million credit and debit cards used at Target department stores was hacked has raised concerns about the security of plastic bank cards. These contain financial information on a magnetic strip or a memory chip embedded in the plastic. Scientists in Britain are now experimenting with embedding data not in a chip, but in the plastic itself. The method is in its early stages but the company developing the technology says some credit card companies are showing interest. VOA's George Putic has more.
Snow is a part of winter in many parts of the United States, but it's a distant reality in temperate areas of the country. VOA's Mike O'Sullivan reports from Pasadena, California, that some children are getting hands-on exposure to the icy element, despite the warm weather.

English Romantic poet John Keats was born on October 31, 1795, in London. The oldest of four children, he lost both his parents at a young age. His father, a livery-stable keeper, died when Keats was eight; his mother died of tuberculosis six years later. After his mother's death, Keats's maternal grandmother appointed two London merchants, Richard Abbey and John Rowland Sandell, as guardians. Abbey, a prosperous tea broker, assumed the bulk of this responsibility, while Sandell played only a minor role. When Keats was fifteen, Abbey withdrew him from the Clarke School, Enfield, to apprentice with an apothecary-surgeon and study medicine in a London hospital. In 1816 Keats became a licensed apothecary, but he never practiced his profession, deciding instead to write poetry.
Around this time, Keats met Leigh Hunt, an influential editor of the Examiner, who published his sonnets "On First Looking into Chapman's Homer" and "O Solitude." Hunt also introduced Keats to a circle of literary men, including the poets Percy Bysshe Shelley and William Wordsworth. The group's influence enabled Keats to see his first volume, Poems by John Keats, published in 1817. Shelley, who was fond of Keats, had advised him to develop a more substantial body of work before publishing it. Keats, who was not as fond of Shelley, did not follow his advice. Endymion, a four-thousand-line erotic/allegorical romance based on the Greek myth of the same name, appeared the following year. Two of the most influential critical magazines of the time, the Quarterly Review and Blackwood's Magazine, attacked the collection. Calling the romantic verse of Hunt's literary circle "the Cockney school of poetry," Blackwood's declared Endymion to be nonsense and recommended that Keats give up poetry. Shelley, who privately disliked Endymion but recognized Keats's genius, wrote a more favorable review, but it was never published. Shelley also exaggerated the effect that the criticism had on Keats, attributing his declining health over the following years to a spirit broken by the negative reviews.
Keats spent the summer of 1818 on a walking tour in Northern England and Scotland, returning home to care for his brother, Tom, who suffered from tuberculosis. While nursing his brother, Keats met and fell in love with a woman named Fanny Brawne. Writing some of his finest poetry between 1818 and 1819, Keats mainly worked on "Hyperion," a Miltonic blank-verse epic of the Greek creation myth. He stopped writing "Hyperion" upon the death of his brother, after completing only a small portion, but in late 1819 he returned to the piece and rewrote it as "The Fall of Hyperion" (unpublished until 1856). That same autumn Keats contracted tuberculosis, and by the following February he felt that death was already upon him, referring to the present as his "posthumous existence."
In July 1820, he published his third and best volume of poetry, Lamia, Isabella, The Eve of St. Agnes, and Other Poems. The three title poems, dealing with mythical and legendary themes of ancient, medieval, and Renaissance times, are rich in imagery and phrasing. The volume also contains the unfinished "Hyperion," and three poems considered among the finest in the English language, "Ode on a Grecian Urn," "Ode on Melancholy," and "Ode to a Nightingale." The book received enthusiastic praise from Hunt, Shelley, Charles Lamb, and others, and in August, Frances Jeffrey, influential editor of the Edinburgh Review, wrote a review praising both the new book and Endymion.
The fragment "Hyperion" was considered by Keats's contemporaries to be his greatest achievement, but by that time he had reached an advanced stage of his disease and was too ill to be encouraged. He continued a correspondence with Fanny Brawne and—when he could no longer bear to write to her directly—her mother, but his failing health and his literary ambitions prevented their getting married. Under his doctor's orders to seek a warm climate for the winter, Keats went to Rome with his friend, the painter Joseph Severn. He died there on February 23, 1821, at the age of twenty-five, and was buried in the Protestant cemetery.

I watched the latest episode of "Who Do You Think You Are" tonight. It is actually the first one that I saw as it aired – the previous ones I watched online. This one was with Kim Cattrall. It was a little different in that she was looking for information about her maternal grandfather. He abandoned his family in the 1930's and no one knew what happened to him after that. So instead of going back several generations, she was looking at the (relatively) recent past and going forward.
As is usual with this show, Kim managed to have amazing good luck on her quest, with one happy coincidence after another. It started with one of her Aunts producing a newspaper clipping from 1980 of Kim's cousin, daughter of her grandfather's younger sister in her wedding dress. Per the article the dress was made by her grandfather's mother (Kim's great-grandmother) for her daughter who married in 1949 and was now being worn again by the granddaughter. Kim goes to the address mentioned in the article as the home of her grandfather's sister 30 years ago. No one answers the door. Ever resourceful Kim knocks on the neighbor's door and that neighbor just so happens to know the sister in question and is willing and able to give her the current address. The kindly neighbor also tells Kim of the existence of a second sister. (Is this too good to be true or what!) Oddly enough, when Kim meets with the two sisters they have a good conversation, but the sisters can't provide any further information on Grandpa – he abandoned them too!
A hired researcher is quick to the rescue finding that just a year after he abandoned his wife and three daughters, Kim's grandfather married again! Kim is off to the town where the second marriage took place. After a quick perusal of the marriage and birth registers and an old city directory, she is off to the village where Grandpa lived with bride number 2. She stops at a pub. (Here's where I fully expected one of the patrons to be intimately connected with the family – silly me!) No worries, though. A quick look in the phone book and she immediately locates the widow of wife number 2's brother. She then meets with her grandfather's sister-in-law and niece and eventually learns that her grandfather and his second family relocated to Australia in the early 1960s. A quick look on Ancestry and she has the death records for Grandpa as well as his second bride.
Now, we need to remember that Grandpa's whereabouts have been a family mystery since 1938. All I can say is wow! I wish I could break down my brick walls this easily! Anyway, it does make for a good show, and while most of the other episodes have featured heart-warming stories of fine upstanding ancestors, it was quite a departure to feature a bigamist!
In any case, the show was good. It was entertaining. And in an ideal world, we would all be finding our ancestors and errant relatives with such ease!!

Certified ScrumMaster Training By Carlton Nettleton in Irvine, CA (Feb 2-3, 2012, 14 PDUs)
When: February 2-3, 2012 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM (PT)
Where: 2082 Business Center Drive, Suite 250, Irvine, CA, 92612
Instructor: Carlton Nettleton
All CSM courses are taught by Certified Scrum Trainers. Taking a CSM course and the corresponding evaluation designates you as a Certified ScrumMaster, which indicates that you have been introduced to the basic concepts you need to perform as a ScrumMaster or team member on a Scrum team. This course also satisfies two elements of the CSD track: Scrum Introduction and Elective.
Scrum is a light-weight framework for delivering valuable product to customers by empowering cross-functional, self-organizing Teams. This simple, easy-to-understand framework offers organizations the ability to transform their work environments, restore a focus on the customer and reenergize their employees. Since Scrum is merely a framework where product development activities occur, there exists a great deal of murkiness on how individuals and organizations apply Scrum in a way that is meaningful and valuable for their circumstances.
This two-day course will begin to clear away that murkiness through short, focused lectures by a qualified Certified Scrum Trainer teaching the basics of Scrum as well as practical tools gathered while mentoring and consulting with organizations learning to apply Scrum. An important aim of this course is to leverage the wide-ranging knowledge and experience of the participants, so expect a significant amount of this course will be spent in peer-to-peer interactions, hands-on activities and drawing connections between the classroom material and your day-to-day experience. This course will equip the participants with the knowledge on how to facilitate Scrum in their teams and begin the process of change in their organization.
The learning objectives for this course are:
- List the five values of Scrum and the eight essential Scrum principles.
- Draw a diagram describing the Scrum framework, highlighting all meetings, roles and artifacts.
- Describe the rights and responsibilities of each role in Scrum – Team member, Product Owner, ScrumMaster and stakeholder.
- Discuss with other participants what Scrum means to you and what it will mean to be a ScrumMaster in your organization.
- Watch Scrum in action as the framework of Scrum will be used to deliver the course material.
- Identify the main obstacles to using Scrum in your organization.
- Practice applying ScrumMaster skills to solve real life problems.
- Pass the Certified Scrum Master assessment.
In addition to the objectives listed above, your instructor will incorporate your learning objectives into the class curriculum, provide regular opportunities to reflect-and-adapt on the class direction and make adjustments to achieve your learning objective. By the close of the training, you will have gained the confidence and understanding to begin socializing Scrum within their your organizations and support teams with improving their processes.
Who Should Attend:
Any person who is interested in learning more about Scrum or wants to make Scrum work better for their Team or organization, is encouraged to attend. While the focus of the class is for people who want to learn how to leverage the Scrum framework to bring about change, any member of Team or the organization who is interested in how to use Scrum would find this class useful.
Typical attendees in the past have been functional managers, Team leads, analysts, architects, engineers, software developers, directors, testers and other roles that support product development.
About your Instructor:
Carlton Nettleton, is an Agile software development coach, consultant and thought-leader in San Diego County. He provides advice, mentoring and training to teams and programs looking to better software quality, improve productivity, build great teams and apply Lean Thinking to software projects. He has over ten years of experience with software development as a contributor, facilitator and leader. He is a Certified Scrum Trainer and has been practicing Scrum since 2005.

SEATTLE (AP) — Saying that she left firearms unsecured around her house, authorities issued an arrest warrant Monday for the mother of the 9-year-old Washington boy who is accused of bringing to school a gun that accidentally fired — seriously wounding a third-grade classmate.
Bremerton police Lt. Peter Fisher said the warrants from Kitsap County District Court were for Jamie Lee Passmore and her boyfriend Douglas L. Bauer.
The warrant for Passmore lists two second-degree counts of unlawful possession of a firearm, and the one for Bauer a second-degree count of unlawful possession of a firearm.
On the day the boy brought the gun to school, Fisher said detectives visited Passmore's residence and saw she had a 9mm pistol "sitting on a desk to the right of a computer" and a loaded 12-gauge shotgun "leaning against the wall next to the nightstand."
Passmore, who has a criminal record, is not allowed to own guns under state law.
The gun that fired off at the school on Feb. 22 was a .45 caliber handgun. The gun fired after he slammed his backpack down on a desk, charging documents said.
His classmate, eight-year-old Amina Kocer-Bowman, was hit by the bullet in her midsection and arm. She is now in serious condition after five surgeries, said Harborview Medical Center spokeswoman Susan Gregg.
Police say that Passmore's and Bauer's practice of not securing guns allowed her son to access a gun. Investigators learned that Passmore "reportedly drove a vehicle with a handgun in the glove box and informed a witness not to say anything as she was a felon and it was illegal for her to possess firearms."
"Her actions in leaving the weapons accessible to children establish her culpability in the unlawful possession of a firearm by her son, which ultimately led to the shooting of an eight year old student at Armin Jahr Elementary School," police said.
The boy is due in court on Tuesday for another hearing for a "status" hearing, said deputy prosecutor Todd Dowell.
The boy was charged with unlawful possession of a gun, bringing a dangerous weapon to school and third-degree assault. He was released to his father's family after posting bail.
Under state law, a judge must decide if the boy has the capacity to understand if what he did was wrong in order for the charges to move forward.
Kitsap County prosecutor Russell D. Hauge has said his office will seek probation and treatment for the boy.
Both of the boy's parents have a lengthy criminal and drug abuse history, court documents show.
His grandmother had adopted him but died about a year ago. His legal guardian now is his uncle, who apologized to the girl's family after the shooting happened.

What you should consider when looking for a Nursing Home/Assisted Living Center
Whether you are looking for yourself or for a family member, finding the best nursing home can be a frustrating process. It's a new emotional and financial challenge, but the more equipped you are the better decision you'll make.
What is a Assisted Living Center?
A nursing home is place for a person who can't be cared for at home but doesn't need a hospital. Nursing homes typically have a nursing staff on site 24 hours a day. Some are set up like hospitals with physical, speech and occupational therapy. Some have special units for dementia and Alzheimer patients.
Nursing homes are not only for the elderly; they are for anyone who needs 24-hour care.
Until recently, nursing homes were rigid and institutionalized. There were rules and a schedule for everything (waking, sleeping, eating, bathing, etc.). Now the culture is changing to one of resident-centered care. They want their residents to feel like they're at home.
A good amount of nursing homes are households—groups of residents living under the same roof with the same staff sharing meals and activities. Some homes are on campuses with multiple households. Resident cats and dogs can often be found in the homes. And some homes let residents bring in their own pets.
Initial Searching
Before you do a lot of leg work, ask around.
- Ask your doctor, family, friends, neighbors and clergy what experiences they have with nursing homes.
- Ask a hospital's discharge planner or social worker for recommendations especially if you're in the hospital or were recently.
- Contact a social service agency and talk to case manager about nursing home choices.
- Contact your local Agency on Aging for recommendations.
Selecting the Right Nursing Home
After you've asked around (see above) and have some homes that sound promising, go for a visit. And think about these questions while you're there. These questions will most likely lead to other questions.
Quality of Life
Is the staff respectful and friendly?
Is the nursing home clean?
Do they offer social, recreational, religious and cultural activities that interest you?
Can you choose your waking, bed time, and bathing time?
Can you get food and drinks when you want? Is the food good? Ask to try it.
Can you have friends and/or family visit anytime?
Can you have a pet?
Is transportation provided?
How much privacy is there?
Can you decorate your room how you like?
Is the temperature comfortable?
Is there good natural lighting?
Do you have a phone and television in the room?
For a number of other questions you should ask, visit AARP to see their checklist.
Quality of Care
To be a certified Medicare/Medicaid provider, a assisted living center must meet 150 requirements ranging from safe storage of food to protecting residents from physical and mental abuse. The State Survey Agency performs an inspection to rate the nursing home on these requirements. Ask to see a copy of this inspection report. You can also compare nursing homes on www.medicare.gov.
Will you get a copy of your care plan? Your care plan is based on your health information and must be assessed in the first 14 days and at least every 90 days thereafter.
Who are your doctors? Can you see your personal doctor?
What improvement goals is the nursing home working on?
Nursing Home Staffing
Federal law states there must be enough staff to care for the residents. What is enough? There must be at least one RN for at least 8 straight hours, 7 days a week. And there must be either an RN or LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) on premises 24 hours a day.
Does the staff wear identification?
Does the staff know the residents by name?
Do they knock on residents' doors before entering?
Is there a licensed doctor on the premises daily?
Costs will fluctuate based on the location, the type and amount of care, and who the provider is. Some nursing homes will charge extra for additional services while others will have "all inclusive fees."
Some average costs for long-term care in the United States (in 2010) were:
- $205 per day or $6,235 per month for a semi-private room in a nursing home
- $229 per day or $6,965 per month for a private room in a nursing home
- $3,293 per month for care in an assisted living facility (for a one-bedroom unit)
- $21 per hour for a home health aide
- $19 per hour for homemaker services
- $67 per day for services in an adult day health care center

DISKLABEL(9) BSD Kernel Manual DISKLABEL(9)
disklabel, readdisklabel, writedisklabel, setdisklabel, bounds_check_with_label - disk label management routines
char * readdisklabel(dev_t dev, void (*strat)(struct buf *), struct disklabel *lp, struct cpu_disklabel *osdep, int spoofonly); int writedisklabel(dev_t dev, void (*strat)(struct buf *), struct disklabel *lp, struct cpu_disklabel *osdep); int setdisklabel(struct disklabel *olp, struct disklabel *nlp, u_long openmask, struct cpu_disklabel *osdep); int bounds_check_with_label(struct buf *bp, struct disklabel *lp, struct cpu_disklabel *osdep, int wlabel);
This collection of routines provides a disklabel management interface to kernel device drivers. These routines are classified as machine- or architecture-dependent because of restrictions imposed by the machine ar- chitecture and boot-strapping code on the location of the label, or be- cause cooperation with other operating systems requires specialized conversion code. readdisklabel() attempts to read a disklabel from the device identified by dev, using the device strategy routine passed in strat. Note that a buffer structure is required to pass to the strategy routine; it needs to be acquired and parametrized for the intended I/O operation, and disposed of when the operation has completed. Some fields in the disklabel passed in lp may be pre-initialized by the caller in order to meet device driver requirements for the I/O operation initiated to get to the disklabel data on the medium. In particular, the field "d_secsize", if non-zero, is used by readdisklabel() to get an appropriately sized buffer to pass to the device strategy routine. Unspecified fields in lp should be set to zero. If the medium does not contain a native disklabel that can be read in directly or spoofonly argument is a true value, readdisklabel() may resort to constructing a label from other machine-dependent information using the provided buffer passed in the osdep argument. If a disk label can not be found or constructed, a string containing an approximated description of the failure mode is returned. Otherwise the NULL string is returned. writedisklabel() stores disk label information contained in the disk la- bel structure given by lp on the device identified by dev. Like readdisk- label(), it acquires and sets up an I/O buffer to pass to the strategy routine strat. writedisklabel() may elect to do a machine-dependent conversion of the native disk label structure (using the buffer pointed at by osdep), to store the disk label onto the medium in a format complying with architectural constraints. writediskla- bel() returns 0 on success and EINVAL if the disk label specifies invalid or unconvertible values. Otherwise, any error condition reported by the device strategy routine in the buffer's "b_error" field is returned. setdisklabel() checks a proposed new disk label passed in nlp for some amount of basic sanity. This includes a check on attempts to change the location, or reduce the size, of an existing disk partition that is currently in use by the system. The current disposition of the disk par- titions is made available through olp and openmask, which provide, respectively, the existing disk label and a bit mask identifying the par- titions that are currently in use. Failure to pass on "basic sanity", results in a EINVAL return value, while a vetoed update of the partition layout is signalled by a EBUSY return value. Otherwise, 0 is returned. bounds_check_with_label() is used to check whether a device transfer described by bp to the device identified by dev, is properly contained within a disk partition of the disk with label lp. If this check fails, bounds_check_with_label() sets the buffer's "b_error" field to EINVAL and sets the B_ERROR flag in "b_flags". If the argument wlabel is zero, and the transfer is a write operation, a check is done if the transfer would overwrite (a portion of) the disklabel area on the medium. If that is the case, EROFS is set in "b_error" and the B_ERROR flag is set in "b_flags". Note that wlabel should be set to a non-zero value if the intended opera- tion is expected to install or update the disk label. Programs that in- tend to do so using the raw device interface should notify the driver by using a DIOCWLABEL ioctl function. A zero value is returned if any of the bound checks failed or transfer was attempted exactly at the end of disk partition. Otherwise the value of 1 is returned.

text: Even worse, Does SSE2 code of intel not by default in th eintel primitives have an 'if then else' that at opteron it runs without using SIMD? But apart from that, SIMD at oldie K8 is very slow compared to core2, though not a factor 2. Barcelona for well optimized code should have an IPC in SIMD of up to 40+% faster i guess than core2. So only 2 questions are when they release and especially at *what* price for the 4 socket mainboards. A 16 core barcelona machine with 4 DDR2 memory controllers might be a very mighty system for all kind of applications that need shared memory to scale well. When releasing Barcelona core within a few months from now, AMD has a huge lead over intel with respect to 4 core cpu's, as it seems to me. I feel personally intels choice of CPU design using small tiny L1 caches from performance viewpoint is a catastrophic one. If there is just ONE competitor for an intel chip that manages to clock a cpu nearly at the same clock like intel and with the same number of cores, then intel usually gets totally outperformed. Now that intel & AMD produce cpu's at the same type of machines their cpu's, it seems to me that AMD will in general outperform intel. Comparing the 2006 core2 with a 2003 release is not a very fair compare IMHO. We can definitely conclude that intel managed to produce their new generation cpu ( core2) more than 1 year sooner than AMD did do, using a simple trick, namely glueing 2 dual core chips together. In the meantime i keep wondering more and more about intel not having an equivalent on the market for AMD's hypertransport. For highend, when buying multiple socket nodes, it is hard to see intel as an alternative to barcelona core driven machines, as it doesn't have any form of load balancing thanks to having just 1 memory controller for all cores. Most interesting for scientists might be buying a few nodes with some double rail network and each node consisting out of 4 socket AMD machines quadcore. Initially now perhaps 2Ghz. Then in end 2008 you can upgrade the cpu's to 3+ Ghz. When also putting a lot of RAM onto such AMD machine, then such a node of course also totally annihilates power6, even before power6 gets taken into production, against a fraction of the price of a power6 node. The advantage of using 4 socket machines for a cluster/supercomputer is obviously the fact that the network costs form a smaller part of the total solution, meanwhile keeping the total number of nodes limited. A few nodes you could arguably use 8 socket solutions for, not to scale up to more cores, as most software can't handle such bad memory latencies, but it might be you could even outgun power6 in terms of total memory a node. What is the amount of ram that power6 supports versus the 8 socket AMD solutions?

Para Cord Survival Bracelet
These come in a variety and colors and sizes. Each inch of bracelet roughly equals 1 foot of para cord.
Even funner are the Para Cord Bracelet/Compass Combo.
You lose a bit of the cord but the compass could be handy, especially on a daily basis with my kids going out into the woods which meander all around.
The reviews on this particular knife and some of the others recommend wrapping your own para cord on the handle.
Has instructions on using snares and 2 different sized snares. I most likely would buy one then create my own kits based off this one as they are about $17 with shipping.
Fishing Survival Kit
Possibly another kit I would buy 1 of then create copies of. It gets expensive buying for 5 kids!

text: Get out today and vote on this important abuse of the taxation policies of our school districts. Yes a new school is probably necessary, but the amount demanded from taxpaying landowners in the district is preposterous. More than a 50% increase in taxes to build an addition to the high school and another elementary school? Doesn't make sense. VOTE NO and force sanity to return to Caesar Rodney district.

Oh, yeah, we have a very limited > budget, so at the present moment, Myrinet is out of question. here's something we've been talking about building: take 64 nodes, think of them as an 8x8 grid. take 16 switches, think of them as 8 "row" switches and 8 "col" switches. plug each node into its row/col switches (assuming 2 gige ports/node). plug each row switch into its 7 peer row switches. plug each col switch into its 7 peer col switches. any same-row or same-col link goes through a single switch; other links go through two switches. without the switch-switch links, you'd have to route through a node (which not be a problem, donno). bisection bandwidth is quite good; latency should be reasonable. (though it's interesting that cheap gige switches seem to use 8-way building blocks, and the latency for a 3x8=24pt switch is quite a bit higher than a simple 8pt.) unfortunately, vendors seem to be skipping the 16pt model, so the basic scheme above uses 15 or 24 ports :( then again, doing 2x aggregation on interswitch links might be a nice tweak, and gets rid of all but two of those unsightly empty ports. scaling to other lattices isn't hard; even the simple 2d scheme gets you to 12x12 with 24pt switches. for fun this weekend, rewire the 8x8 above as 4x4x4 ;)

GE Energy has signed a technology licensing agreement with Hydrogen Energy for a proposed 250-megawatt power plant that would use integrated gasification combined-cycle (IGCC) technology, a product of ecomagination.
The plant, to be located near Bakersfield, in Kern County, Calif., would be designed to capture up to 90 percent of its carbon dioxide for enhanced oil recovery and sequestration in an adjacent oil field.
"This is a homecoming of sorts for GE and IGCC technology," said Monte Atwell, general manager, gasification of GE Energy. "GE technology was involved in the first IGCC pilot plant in Barstow, Calif., and we are pleased to be deploying the next generation of this technology to deliver low carbon power to the people of Southern California."
HEI is a joint venture of BP Alternative Energy and multinational mining company Rio Tinto Hydrogen. In 2007, GE and BP formed a global alliance to jointly develop and deploy technology for at least five IGCC power plants that could dramatically reduce carbon dioxide emissions from electricity generation. The Hydrogen Energy California County project would be the first power plant built under that alliance.
"Offering further proof that IGCC with carbon capture and storage (CCS) is viable commercial technology, this plant could become a model for new power generating facilities worldwide and help position the United States as a leader in low carbon power generation," said Jonathan Briggs, regional director of the Americas for Hydrogen Energy.
IGCC technology converts solid fuels, such as coal, into a cleaner burning hydrogen-rich fuel, which then is used by a gas turbine combined-cycle system to generate electricity, providing a cleaner, economical coal-to-power option. IGCC also significantly reduces criteria emissions—sulfur dioxide, nitrous oxide, mercury and particulate matter—and decreases water consumption by up to 30 percent (as compared to a conventional coal plant).
The technology proposed for the Hydrogen Energy California plant would convert petroleum coke, coal or a combination of each into a synthesis gas (syngas). Chemical scrubbers would filter out pollutants and would separate carbon dioxide, leaving a hydrogen-rich fuel to power the gas turbine combined-cycle system. The carbon captured from the plant would be piped to an adjacent oil field, where it would be used for enhanced oil recovery and sequestration operations.

UIA introduces 12-fold fuel charge reduction on its flights
Ukraine International Airlines decided to reduce fuel charges for ticket purchases originated from Ukraine. Effective 15 December 2008, fuel charges which constitute a portion of the overall ticket price, are lowered for all UIA internal and Kiev-Tbilisi flights.
Fuel charges for Kiev-Lvov-Kiev and Kiev-Simferopol-Kiev flights have seen a 12-time reduction – from $24 to $2. The charges for the international Kiev-Tbilisi-Kiev flight have dropped by $28.
Furthermore, starting from 15 January 2009, UIA will considerably lower fuel charges for its European destinations. For example, the amount will be reduced by $54 for Kiev-Helsinki flight and by $35 for Kiev-Amsterdam flight.
"The worldwide tendency for aviation fuel price reduction which we have observed from October and the long-awaited fall in prices for aviation fuel in Ukraine allowed us to review fuel charges on both international and internal flights," noted Dmitry Shinkarchuk, UIA Director Sales Ukraine. "If this tendency continues, we will continue cutting down fuel surcharges and consider doing away with these charges altogether. Unfortunately, prices for aviation fuel in Ukraine at the moment remain considerably higher than in Europe."

THE trophy jacket, the status handbag, the statement shoe - all have had their shining moment but now they are making way for the rise of the power cardigan. Fabled as the preserve of demure debutants, the cardigan has taken on new fashion credentials thanks to patrons such as Chloe Sevigny and Stella McCartney, who wittily subverted bright cable knit twin-sets in her autumn/winter 2012-13 collection.
The stealthy power of the cardigan comes into its own when worn in surprising circumstances. Michelle Obama mastered this early on in the campaign trail replacing severe blazers with zingy cashmere - without ever diminishing the impression she meant business. Victoria Beckham is often seen sporting them for personal appearances, where they add a sense of approachability to her mega stardom.
Audrey Hepburn secured the timeless preppy appeal of the cardigan decades ago, but they have since been elevated to a red carpet cover-up, thrown nonchalantly over the shoulders of L'Wren Scott and Elle Fanning. A reliable ally, the power of the cardigan should never be under estimated.

Edotown one of the most beloved cities in the wildly popular Polyworld Series of VORPGs, has been having some strange issues lately. In game bug reports from thousands of players has come in non-stop as of late. Complaints of theft, loss of lives, bullying, and cheating have been running rampant through the city. The new development involves a hefty transaction in the event a player wishes to leave the city. The cost so great many can't begin to pay it, forcing them to log out there character forever stuck in Edotown. Most heinous of the issues that have recently developed is the first death not associated with negligence has occurred; people are starting to panic.
People won't simply make new characters, much of the world's commerce has moved into VR many if not all players have their livelihood tied to years of work, simply deleting a character or starting over is practically a real form of suicide.
History: The World
Virtual reality has progressed much in the years leading up to 2189. It was soon discovered that the digitizing of ones thoughts, made into action for a game, had deeper consequences than many realized.
The VR systems of the future work by electronically interfacing with the brain to read and write information directly into the cerebral cortex. A decision has been made by nearly all residents of first world societies to remain connected at all times. So much of the world is automated that few ever leave their homes choosing to have sustenance directly connected to their bodies, as per what is glibly referred to as a P.E.G. (Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy.) Automated food trollies moving slowly down the street refilling food storage tanks with protein slurry are all too common.
Much of the first world country's run on automated systems with automated backups, but for over 10 years many of those backup systems like security and repair have begun to break down. Simple wear and tear from natural disasters, negligence, and overuse have left a number of key systems in Polyworld open to physical attack, and with no one physically checking on these systems anymore they might as well be sitting out in the open.
Factions: Somali Pirates
As the rest of the first world retreated into VR, the third world countries each began to prosper, slowly till reach the levels of technology and sophistication resembling the early 2000's in the USA. Dissatisfied that only the wealthiest could afford to spend any time in Polyworld or any of the mega VR corporations a plan was set into motion to take what they wanted. Somali Pirates, as they are called, boarded ships to the US and landing in California. From there they made their way to LA the last known location of a Polyworld systems server hub. They scouted hundreds of buildings searching for the most decrepit and defenseless server still in use. They dodged what little automated security was present in the city and casually strolled into the server room. There they located there prize a single server hub, from it they seamlessly stole a 500 petabyte drive, installing it into a briefcase equipped with Wi-Fi/ satellite hijacking capabilities so that those connected to the city they had stolen were none the wiser. The drive they stole contains what they would discover as one of the most popular work cities in Polyworld, Edotown.
The Somali Pirates quickly set to work learning as much as they could about the programing and systems of Polyworld. The few documents they discovered in the remains with the server granted many forms of access either little known or forgotten mainly due to the fact many were physical commands requiring keyboards, key fobs, and card scanners. Such devices were obviously obsolete, but left intact for the purposes of maintenance once upon a time. They stole everything they could carry and returned home. There they tirelessly programed until they had all of the power over Edotown. They locked out admins, and closed the gates, declared themselves the new rulers of Edotown and demanded tribute. What they soon realized was they few of the pirates themselves really enjoyed Polyworld so much to abandon reality for more than a few hours a day. So it was decided that the destruction of Poly world was to come to pass or the world would perish.
The City: Edotown
Edotown was one of the most popular work sites in all of Polyword, thousands of people are logged in there. Much of the town, in its hay day, closely resembled a romanticized feudal Japan. The cast system was a fun game and many crafters sold there orient inspired tools and avatar pieces there.
Once Edotown was stolen the main gates to all the other cities was cut, though by this time hundreds of new ports and portals had been created, by the Somali. To be trapped in Edotown is to be a hostage of sorts. Those unable to pay the Pirates for exit fees are more often forced into joining the Pirates under their guise of a crime syndicate. Their true goal is to tear down a VR mega-corporations one by one.
Edotown under the Somali has taken on a new look much of the feudal look is present, but now huge swaths of modern buildings, night clubs, Somali offices, and VR-trip bars litter the roads. Those enslaved have been hacked so that they are tracked and monitored mentally by the systems they inhabit at all times. The Somali discovered that they can tell the brain new things they thought impossible. The learned to program the brain to believe that what happened in the game could be real. They incorporated this hack into weapons and called them simply killing weapons. Weapons programed with this hack are incredibly difficult to detect visually or by code, as so few moderators have a true sense of code to begin with any more. These weapons, often katana and pistols, program the brain to cut ties with those body parts upon being struck or shot. Normally, being hit with a weapon is a simple fun part of the game, limbs simply grow back overnight. While limbs grow back even if a killing weapon was used the mind can no longer control their limb in game and sadder in real life either. Guns often cause shock and simply death with head and chest; shots in the extremities cause the same kind of damage bladed weapons do. With this the Somali use their enslaved to go out into all the other worlds and sell their wares to the already present gangs and war bands as a solution to the never-ending conflict and flame wars. With this Edotown has become a black market hub for killing weapons and with their first hack a success they are working on new deadlier weapons and tactic to bring down Polyworld.

Let's face it... my job pretty much sucks:
The very nature of being a crisis counselor, therapist, casemanager or any other kind of mental health professional requires that I respond with professionalism to kids who have
been abused and basically fucked over for years; first by their families, and then by a system that fails to protect them.
I get calls in the middle of the night from children, adolescents, and even my friends who are in vaiying stages of crises— some are suicidal psychotic, angry, and pretty much just all kinds of fucked up.
But today, TODAY!!!!
Today, a child rolled up her sleeves to show me that her set finflicted wounds (cutting) were beginning to heal. She threw out her last razor blade from her hidden collection the night
Today, I won a small battle.
Today, I saw a life change and the healing begin, Not just for her, but for aii of us. Today, I won a small battle.
As one of my former clients told me, what I do is important—
because even though I may not change hundreds or thousands of lives every day of my fife, I make a difference one life at a time.
At the time, I couldn't: stop the tears from my eyes now I can't stop the warm feeling that has taken hold of my body and me same instead of the tears.
I am so very proud of you.
