Over at ars technica Ryan Paul headlines his November 21, 2006 article as Microsoft: we agree to disagree with Novell on Linux patent infringements, and – after an analysis of the patent infringement threats – concludes:
"Although readers may be inclined to judge and condemn Microsoft or Novell for this latest round of shenanigans, I think that would be counter-productive. The real culprit in this case is the patent system that makes this kind of situation possible. Microsoft's threats illuminate the necessity of patent reform, particularly as it relates to software.

50's Girl Meets the Hippy
Cody claims he was someone from Show Low...but seriously no one looks like that in Show Low...maybe Clay Springs tho. It was fun dressing up. We didn't know what Cody should be and before you know he was pulling out all these hidious things to wear and we were laughing. He came up with this! Other people at the party were dressed up as a lady bug, another was a piece of paper...she wore all white, then another kid was a DQ girl. He had piggy tails and his wife's work shirt on, and another girl was going to be a stop light but wouldn't put her costume on. It was a success.

Nicole, ...Clay Springer isn't a person! Clay Springs is a little little hilly billy town outside of Show Low and they look a little worse than Cody does in these pictures. Haha. I can see how you got confused tho! Thank goodness no one like that was at the reception tho. eek.

Wow, I am STILL laughing about Clay Springer. I guess that does sound like a person's name. Danica, you better be more clear when you post things like that. haha Nicole, you are so funny!!! We need to be careful though. Dad teaches school at CLAY SPRINGS!!! ;o)

Ha ha. Nicole, that was hilarious. I laughed out loud. Danica you look too cute in your little 50's attire. SO cute...can't say the same about Cody though. For some reason, Bubba teeth make me gag. Don't really know why though...I think it's always been that way.

from manilastandard.net
The Energy Department granted SunRay Power Inc., an affiliate of listed MRC Allied Inc., a solar service contract to develop the 100-megawatt Clark Solar Project in Capas and Bamban, Tarlac province.
The Clark Solar Project, estimated to cost P8.5 billion, is located within a 256-hectare property leased by SPI from state-run Bases Conversion Development Authority.
"We are excited to do this solar project in partnership with BCDA and we are looking at doing more projects with them as part of our long-term plans. The success of this project would be another proof that the private sector and the government can actually work hand in hand towards achieving a common goal-the creation of cleaner, greener, more sustainable communities," SPI president and chief executive Carlos Gatmaitan said.
SPI is one of the energy projects being developed by MRC Allied, which holds a diversified portfolio in property development and mining exploration.
MRC Allied announced its target to develop at least 1,000 MW of power generation capacity by 2022.
MRC Allied and UniSolar Inc. signed an engineering, procurement and construction contract for a 4-MW solar rooftop project with Xentro Mall Developer Inc. in February.
MRC Allied engaged the services of UniSolar to provide the design, supply, delivery, installation, testing and commissioning of a solar PV system for rooftop within various Xentro malls nationwide.
UniSolar is a domestic corporation engaged in the design, global sourcing, local distribution, manufacturing, sales of solar-powered products and the operation and maintenance of solar rooftop systems.
XRC is a domestic corporation engaged in the operation of community malls nationwide.
MRC Allied will pay UniSolar at least P200 million for the installation of the initial target capacity of at least 4MW. Construction period is set at a maximum of 6 months from issuance of notice to proceed by MRC to UniSolar.
The company said it would also bring the company closer to its goal of developing at least 200 MW of clean and renewable energy each year over the next five years.

UC Researchers, Scientists, Postdocs & Faculty make critical contributions to scientific research and have a unique perspective in defending the important role science plays in our universities, communities and across our world.
We believe facts matter and science must not be taken for granted. Our research protects our air and water, fights climate change, pioneers medical breakthroughs, creates new industries and safeguards our future.
The Trump Administration has ushered in a new era of government – one where our research has been ideologically and economically devalued and evidence-based science is under attack.

Read The UAW's Position on Federal Research Funding:
"Federal funding enables universities to perform path-breaking research. It is critical for the future of the U.S. economy, because it provides core support for innovation in fields such as the medical and life sciences, energy use, new technologies, environmental protection, transportation and many others. The resulting innovations can create thousands of jobs.
Federal funding provides salaries and benefits for those who perform this research, including student employees and postdoctoral researchers. It also provides the equipment, materials and training necessary for them to perform their work. The Obama administration and Congress should increase federal funding for existing research and for the basic science that forms the foundation for future research. This is necessary to preserve the leading role our research universities play in innovation and their preeminent role internationally."

A quick breakdown – if you so happened to watch RAW on Monday then you know the drunk-smark crowd in New Jersey had virtually leapt from being complete fans of Dolph Ziggler after his title win to Fandango. Fandango in most part shouldn't necessarily work in modern WWE because he's a damn ballroom dancer who moonlights as a wrestler and refuses to wrestle unless you get his name right. It's not Fandango, it's FAAAAAAHN DAAAAAAAAAHN GOOOOOO. There are a ton of silent H's in there. As the story goes, Fandango has some catchy elevator theme music thanks to Jim Johnston called "ChaChaLaLa" and on Monday, it became its own thing thanks to the crowd singing it all night long following Fandango's appearance and willing to still sell his gimmick after getting his ass kicked by Chris Jericho. Now "ChaChaLaLa" has become the greatest WWE entrance song since Mark Henry's "Somebody's Gonna Get Their Ass Kicked" and is selling like mad globally. We are now in the era of Fandango – and so are the Houston Texans cheerleaders. Yes folks, these lovely ladies are Fandangoing. And I as a wrestling fan couldn't be more proud that a weird thing such as a ballroom dancing wrestler has now become a national thing. Let this be hope that Matt Schaub arm gets 100% healthy and the Texans win a Super Bowl next year. Please. For cool shit sakes. I would like to personally thank all the TX Cheerleaders for all the support. Ill b holding private dance lessons in Houston in May. #hugs — Fandango (@WWEFandango) April 13, 2013 Thanks ALL for getting our #Fandangoing vid almost 100k views in 24Hrs! @wwe @wweuniverse @wwefandango youtube.com/watch?v=HGgvBf… #BabesOnParade — Texans Cheerleaders (@TexansCheer) April 13, 2013 Share this:TweetShare on Tumblr

I have very long and complicated love hate relationship with horror films.
I feel like they're fun to watch but at same time I never seem to be able to get through watching the whole film. I still remember my four friends and I as the only ones in the whole cinema as we watched paranormal activity, which is to this date one of the scariest things I've ever seen. On the other hand, I love thriller movies that other people find scary, even if they're overly disturbing and gory. I think this is because it is the theme of the paranormal movies like the conjuring that I find scary to watch.
Comparatively, everything I've seen about Japanese horror movies seems to be not that scary. Even if it is paranormal based, the 'scary scenes' seems to be somewhat sadistically comedic and jovial. I'm unsure as to if this is…

Lilian Prendergast Hypnotherapy is passionate about enabling people find the power that lies within their own subconscious mind and using that power to improve their health and wellbeing.
It is my intention to enable people heal their lives by guiding them on a voyage of disovery to access and utilise that power to create a better life.
To achieve this aim, I not only provide one to one sessions, but also colaborate with another hypnotherapist to provide workshops which are accessible and affordable.
We hold regular workshops at The Sanctuary, a spiritual centre in Middleton near Manchester.
We are also able to hold workshops for groups and companies in and around the Manchester area and further afield.
We hold the following workshops at The Sanctuary, 19 Market Place, Middleton, Manchester. M24 6AE. Places can be book through myself or by ringing the Sanctuary Direct on 0161 870 1423.
Alternatively, if you have a group or company who think their members or employees would benefit from one of these workshops but are situated further afield, we can travel and run a workshop at a
venue of your choice. Just ring myself to discuss arrangements.
Self Hypnosis Workshop
A highly interactive and fun workshop where you will learn about the benefits of self hypnosis, how to enter a state of trance then a range of techniques to help you rid yourself of emotional baggage and make positive changes to your life.
Change your mind, change your life
A voyage of self disovery, helping you to identify exactly what you want from your life, how to break through your self limiting beliefs and access the power within to clear the way to achieving your aspirations and ambitions.
The subconscious mind and the law of attraction
It is within everyone's power to achieve a life they desire by utilising the power of the universe through the Law of Attraction
Unfortunately, due to the learnt baggage and blockages that we carry within our subconscious mind, all our efforts at success are scuppered before we start and we attact a reality that falls short of what we truly wish for.
Universal energy lies within our grasp and is free to harness at any time and this workshop instructs people how to improve their lives by showing them that anything is possible when they rid themselves of that which has held them back for so long enabling them to create the lives they desire.
Also see "The critical link between the subconscious mind and the law of attraction" by Lilian Prendergast. Available from Amazon and on Kindle.

Working from home still gets a bad rap, even though it's grown by 41 percent over the last decade, according to a Sept. 2012 U.S. Census Bureau report. We just can't seem to shake the image of slackers in their pajamas eating chocolates and watching movies while they pretend to work from their couch. But the truth of working from home is that, rather than bringing out your inner slacker, it can actually make you a more productive professional.
More companies are embracing working from home as a viable option, either during emergency situations like Hurricane Sandy when getting to the office isn't an option, or on a regular basis to save on real estate and overhead costs. If you'd like to work from home, use the following stats to convince your boss that you'll be just as, if not more, productive at home as you would be in the office.
Avoid distracting colleagues.
A recent survey of 800 job seekers looking for work-from-home jobs found that the number one reason they wanted a telecommuting job was to avoid distracting colleagues. Not to eliminate their commute, to have more time for their families, or to save on costs like business clothes, lunches out, and gas. When you work at home, you can eliminate this major distraction and focus on getting your work done.
Control how often you're interrupted.
A study by the University of California, Irvine found that workers are interrupted every three minutes, and that it takes over 20 minutes to get back on task after an interruption! Half the time, we're self-interrupting (checking Facebook, listening to talk radio, etc.), but the other half of the time, we're interrupted by outside forces – loud noises, colleagues stopping by our cubes, impromptu meetings being called, other people's conversations carrying throughout the office, and so on. We can eliminate 50 percent of our interruptions by working from home.
Take less sick time and fewer personal days.
People who are sick enough to call in sick to work tend to keep working if they can do so from home. We're not saying this is the healthiest practice, but it's the reality of what happens, especially if the sickness is minor, like a small cold or stomach bug. Working from home is a win-win for employers because a) you're still working, and b) you aren't passing your germs along to your colleagues, so it keeps everyone more productive. Of course, it works the other way around as well, if you're working from home regularly, you're less exposed to illnesses from your colleagues as well. Fewer sick days is a great reason to work from home!
Studies show it just does.
Last year, Stanford University tracked the productivity of 250 customer service employees who worked from home for nine months, as compared to their office-bound counterparts, and the results weighed heavily in the telecommuters' favor. The employees who worked from home took 15 percent more calls and worked 11 percent more hours than their office-bound coworkers. Overall productivity for the telecommuters was 4 percent higher than for office-bound workers. A similar study by the University of Minnesota done with 600 Best Buy headquarters employees found the same results.
Of course, how productive you are when working from home depends a lot on you, the employee. How do you work without supervision? Are you self-disciplined and good at self-management? Can you avoid temptations like television, napping, and shopping in the middle of the day? Some people prefer the office environment because it provides more structure and oversight, so before you jump into working from home, you need to first evaluate yourself.

Is it possible to put the dog to sleep? (And it is VERY expensive in veterinary medicine).
Most of these substances are not sold without a prescription, barbiturates including. You can, of course, try to distinguish them from other medicines, such as Corvalolum. I do not know how difficult this is.
From the legal point of view - if you do not torture a dog, you can kill. This is your property.
Why do you need to put a dog to sleep?Answer # 3:
You can call the doctor at home. That he conducted this procedure at home.Answer # 4:
Kill your own native dog - a humane way of what?Answer # 5:
Why put to sleep?Answer No. 6:
As this medicine kills - no one will sell it to you.Answer No. 7:
Give those dogs to another person who will deal with her, and will fight her aggression, because of the vet to lull the dog stupidlyAnswer No. 8:
Narcotic drugs of this kind are subject to strict accountability and are not released into the hands. You can get it only through friends-acquaintances among doctors, but they are unlikely to want to risk their career.Answer No. 9:
Not "penobarbital", and phenobarbital.
Refers to the list of potent and toxic substances (list of BCPAs).
Vacation is strictly by prescription.
In detail - http://www.phenobarbitalum.ru/.
Fucking had to start? To after some time to euthanize ??Answer No. 11:
Gerasim and moo-mu help youAnswer No. 12:
There are no such drugs in free sale. And you can ask how much it is - UNREALLY expensive - to give your pet to leave normally and painlessly?Answer # 13:
You will not get drugs or semi-narcotic substancesAnswer # 14:
You can buy it but it costs from 5000 and you need less than 5ml or even less. Easier to call homeAnswer No. 15:
Give someone a dog, suddenly heal!

When it reopens in September, the pool at the Nelson and District Community Complex will smell less of chlorine than before.
That's not because it will be using less of it, but because a powerful new air circulation method — a trichloramine exhaust system — will suck out the evaporated chlorine.
"We will have twice the air movement in the pool," says operations supervisor Jason Craig. "This will be a much improved environment. The nastier off-gassed chlorine levels are always in the first couple of feet above the water, so we will have a venting system that will draw the air across the top of the pool and take away the trichloramines [evaporated used chlorine]."
It's the trichloramines — the off-gassed chlorine by-product that has already done its job of disinfecting the water — that causes the typical pool smell, he says.
"You go to some hotels and you can smell their pool from outside the building. That's because they have not kept their used chlorine levels in check and are not able to dispose of the evaporated chlorine."
The renovated Nelson pool will disinfect the water with a combination of chlorine and ultraviolet light (UV). BC's Public Health Act requires the use of chlorine in all public pools, at a minimum of 0.5 parts per million.
But the new pool will exceed that minimum. The amount is still in the planning stages but it might contain up to two parts per million. Craig says a boost from the basic 0.5 is required every time contamination (stool or vomit) is detected in the pool and this happens often enough that it makes sense to keep the chlorine at a higher level continuously.
"With all the studies we have read," he says, "we know if we have contamination you have to go to two parts per million. The time it takes to raise it to two parts per million in the affected area, and the health risks to our staff from the contaminants themselves to get it up to two parts per million, are not worth it. Studies show that two parts per million in a pool kills every bug on contact, except giardia which takes 15 minutes."
Chlorine levels in the hot tub, which Craig describes as "a perfect breeding ground for bugs due to the temperature," are kept at three to 3.5 parts per million.
There are some public misconceptions about chlorine and pool disinfection, says Joe Chirico, the RDCK's manager of community services.
"People think we should just use ozone as a primary treatment, and that it means we won't use chlorine," he says. "That is not true."
At the new Nelson pool, ozone won't be used at all.
Ozone is a better disinfectant than chlorine, Craig says, but it has a weakness: it doesn't really want to be ozone. It's oxygen with a third atom that wants to attach to other molecules including chlorine, so you end up using more chlorine and losing ozone. In the past, ozone was a secondary treatment in the Nelson pool but that will be discontinued in the new pool.
"When we had ozone the net result was we were using more chlorine because ozone destroys it. Ozone does not provide a true benefit because the infrastructure you need to see the full benefit is expensive and requires costly maintenance."
In any event, entirely replacing chlorine with ozone is not in the cards because of the provincial government requirement that all pools must use chlorine.
The pool will rely on UV as a secondary treatment.
"UV does not do the same thing as chlorine," says Craig. "Chlorine attaches to organics and destroys them through oxidation. UV goes to the cellular level and kills the virus at the DNA level."
Water is circulated in and out of the pool so that the entire pool is filtered every six hours. During the recirculation process, on its way back into the pool, water is subjected to UV, which acts instantaneously.
Craig says chlorine and UV complement each other because chlorine has the advantage of being in the water all the time, whereas UV can only affect it momentarily as the water flows back into the pool. He says the possibility of contaminants in the pool means a disinfectant (chlorine) has to be in the water permanently.

EAST BOSTON – Brady Chant sealed his spot as one of the all-time greats in Suffolk baseball history as the senior centerfield notched his 200th hit in the Rams' 10-1 victory over Lasell Sunday afternoon at East Boston Memorial Park.
SCORE: Suffolk 10, Lasell 1
RECORDS: Suffolk (7-13, 2-0 GNAC) | Lasell (3-10, 2-1 GNAC)
Chant wasted no time to secure his 200th hit as he entered game one of the doubleheader just one hit shy of the milestone. The Warwick, Rhode Island, native led off the game with a single to seal the accomplishment. The hit also started a three-run rally for the Rams. After Chant ran out the throw for the single he advanced to second on a throwing error by the Lasers' shortstop. Trevor Lee followed the game-opening single with one of his own and Chant turned on the wheels to round the bases and open the scoring. Will Hopkins followed suit with a single to move Lee to third before the freshman outfield sniped second to advance into scoring position himself. Seth Coiley collected an RBI on a 53 ground out that scored Lee, before Greg Speliotis' double down the right field line brought in Hopkins for the 3-0 advantage.
Lasell responded in the second stanza as Sean Doris stole home to give the Lasers its first and what would be their only run of the day, which cut Suffolk's lead to two, 3-1.
The Rams made up the ground and then some in the top of the fourth. Blasé Cormier started things off with a single up the middle and Rich Gilbride walked before Steven Shamnoski took advantage of an indecisive decision by Lasell pitcher Zach Handzel to loaded the bases. Ben Isaak brought in Cormier and Gilbride on a double to left field and Chant picked up a pair of RBI with a single to right to stretch Suffolk's edge to 7-1. The Lasers made a change on the hill with Lorenzo Davis coming out the pen, but the new arm was no match for the blue-and-gold as it remained hot with Lee barreling a single to right to put runners in the corners. A wild pitch moved Lee into scoring position and Davis second wild pitch of the frame let Chant strut in to turn it into an 8-1 Suffolk score.
Suffolk tacked on two more runs in the top of the fifth. Once again the trio of Cormier, Gilbride and Shamnoski put all the ducks in the pond; this time Cormier walk, Gilbride doubled and Shamonski wore a pitch. Lasell made its second change on the mound and history repeated itself with a Suffolk single following suit as Isaak knocked the ball to center to score Cormier. A fielder's choice on Chant's at bat let Gilbride cross home to lengthen the Rams' margin to 10-1.
Mark Fusco kept the Lasers bats quiet as he let up just one walk in the bottom of the fifth to maintain the nine-run margin. Jake Flax came out of the pen to take over for the starter and dealt a three-up, three-down inning with one strikeout looking to secure the 10-1 victory for the Rams.
- Fusco improved to 2-2 on the season with a one-run, six-hit, one-walk, four-strikeout afternoon through 6.0 innings of work.
- Flax threw one inning of scoreless relief with one punchout.
- Five different hurlers saw action for Lasell with Handzel suffering the setback. The starter allowed eight runs, six earned, on seven hits, two walks and sat down a pair of hitters.
- Davis (2R, 2 H, 2 BB, 1 K), Chris O'Connor (1 H), Christian Berk (1 BB, 2 K) and Dylan Fenuccio (1 H, 1 BB) all saw one inning apiece for the Lasers.
- Chant finished the milestone-day with three hits, three RBI and two runs scored.
- Isaak also stood out in the win as the freshman third baseman went 2-for-2 with one double, three RBI, one run and one stolen base.
- Lee produced a multi-hit outing as well with two to his credit for one RBI and one run scored.
- Gilbride and Speliotis had one double each. Gilbride scored two runs, while Speliotis brought one in.
- Chant became the fifth-ever Suffolk baseball player to record 200 hits throughout their career and became the first to accomplish the feat since Devan Jones in 2014.
- With three hits on the afternoon, Chant moved into sole passion four fourth overall on the all-time hit list with 202 throughout his career.
- Chant became just the fifth active Division III Player in the country to eclipse the mark.
- Relief pitcher Flax took the mound for the first time in nearly 800 days since being sidelined due to injury.
- Chant matched a season-high three hits.
- Isaac produced a career-high three RBI.
- Gilbride matched a personal-best two runs scored.
- Suffolk won its sevenths straight game versus Lasell to improve to 23-1 all-time versus the Lasers.
Suffolk completes the two-game series with Lasell at 5:00 p.m.

Urban living is the new Luxury Living
Not only has our country grown in population but it has grown in the dimensions of its economics as well. With the incoming of the corporate sector, a large chunk of our population is employed in these giant multinational and indigenous corporate houses. This makes for a lot of people to be living in the cities where the offices of these corporates are situated. Now as a lot of people shifted to the bigger cities, the demand for high rise apartments is soaring high as it never had been. The bigger metros like Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Delhi already had high rise building culture but now even the new age cities like Chandigarh are witnessing a boom in the demand for high rise living.
What is it that makes living in these high rises so attractive? These apartments are the new epitome of luxury. Constructed at a place which lies on the outskirts yet is very close to the market and city, these buildings choose lush green surrounding for their residents.
Let us see what makes these buildings the new luxury home for the modern man.
Privacy is paramount:
People may choose to live together in these high rises as a society but they need their privacy as well. The uber-luxury housing these days provides separate entries and of course, the whole society is protected by 24/7 security.
Facilities unmatched:
Fitted with state of the art technology and with interiors that are not only spacious but are awe-inspiring, these apartments can be breathtakingly beautiful. The residents get an experience of luxury like none other. Almost all the societies are fit with inbuilt swimming pool, gymnasium, spa, and recreational areas.
The architecture is top-notch and is extraordinarily beautiful as well as utilitarian. This is the modern mantra for living in modern times where everything is inspired by aesthetics and utility and commingles both perfectly.
The surroundings :
These luxury apartments have a clear view of the city line and is located aptly close to the markets, medical facilities and transportation centers of the city. This adds to the benefit of the residents to access these facilities as quickly as possible.

In light of the multiple school shootings that have taken place over the last twenty years, including those of Parkland and Sandy Hook, the Ridgewood Public School system has made major efforts to increase school security. One of the recent additions has been the presence of school police and resource officers. You may have seen these officers positioned behind the desk at the Little Theatre entrance, directing traffic during the hectic morning commute, or walking through the hallways. So who are these people, and why are they in school?
A school resource officer is a career law-enforcement officer, not a security guard. They are usually armed unless school laws strictly prohibit weapons on campus. In Ridgewood, the officers do not carry, but they are prepared to defend the school, students, and staff in case of an emergency. The goal of school resource officers is to provide students and faculty with a safe learning environment.
In a recent survey of twenty-two freshmen, almost half claimed that they feel less safe in school in light of the recent school violence. "Everyone always says it won't happen until it does," mentioned one freshman. Learning in a place that feels unsafe is extremely difficult, especially with the threat of extreme violence hanging over students' heads.
School resource officers are required to pass an (at least) 40-hour training that teaches them skills in the event of an active shooter, and have at least three years of street experience; it is not a job cut out for everyone. In the event of violence, officers are trained to put themselves in danger rather than jeopardize the safety of the students. Officers should also not have any previous incidents or complaints involving youth, as they should want to develop friendly relationships with the students in the school.
At Ridgewood High School, the officers frequently walk through the halls, cafeteria, and Learning Commons, waving and conversing with students. Talking with the officers helps students familiarize themselves with the otherwise intimidating strangers in the hallways. Mr. Reinke, the head of security of the Ridgewood Public School district, is often in the high school, walking down the hallways and greeting students.
The National Center for Education Statistics reported in 2018 that during the 2015-2016 school year, 42% of public schools had at least one school resource officer working for one day per week. Increased safety also comes in the form of the two blue pieces of tape on classroom walls, indicating where to hide during a lockdown so that students are not visible to an intruder looking through the door.
Ridgewood has always been hyper-aware of student safety: some may recall in the 2017-2018 school year when there was an unidentified man outside of Willard School, and the entire district went on lockdown. The Ridgewood Public School district follows the motto "better safe than sorry", and despite how frustrated teachers may be when a fire drill, lockdown, or modified lockdown interrupts class, Ridgewood ensures that its students feel safe throughout the school day, from kindergarten to senior year.

People take notice when you win a championship, then following that, they usually take from you.
That's no different in the Southern Professional Hockey League.
After helping lead the Huntsville Havoc to the club's second SPHL Championship in 2018, assistant coach Jesse Kallechy is getting his shot as a head coach with the Fayetteville Marksmen.
"I'm excited to get my chance to be a head coach here in Fayetteville," Kallechy said in a statement released by the team. "I'm thankful for Chuck and the ownership of this team for giving me the opportunity, I'm ready to hit the ground, build this team, and get a competitive group on the ice at the Crown."
Following a four-year playing career in the SPHL that included stops between the pipes in Knoxville, Pensacola and Huntsville, Kallechy posted a 3.15 goals against average and an 89.6 save percentage. After hanging up his goalie's mask he donned the coaches cap, spending three year's on the bench with the Havoc.
"I've been fortunate to play and learn with the gold-standard in the SPHL with the Havoc and under the tutelage of Coach Detulleo, but I'm ready for this next adventure," Kallechy added. "We'll put this team together, and we're going to be ready to go on October 19."

Since the heart is located right under the ribcage, most heart-related issues can cause pain over the left shoulder, left arm and under the rib cage. However, there are also organs like the pancreas, spleen, large intestine, lungs and kidney under the left rib cage. Therefore, an infection, inflammation or any other issues related to these organs can also lead to a pain under the left ribcage, extending towards the back and upper abdomen.
1. Heart Attack
When you feel a sharp pain under the left rib cage, there are high chances that you might have just suffered a heart attack. This happens when the heart does get enough supply of the oxygen-rich blood as a result of a blockage in the coronary artery. It can be heart attack when the pain is accompanied by
- A squeezing sensation in the chest
- Discomfort in the jaws, neck, shoulder, back, and arms
- A burning sensation radiating outwards from the center of the chest
- Cold sweat, nausea, dizziness, and vomiting
2. Angina
Angina could also be the origin of pain under the rib cage. This is mainly caused by a poor blood circulation arising out of arteries that have grown narrow or blocked due to high cholesterol and high blood pressure. This condition is mainly seen in overweight people. Although the symptoms are similar to heart attack, angina is not really a heart attack. However, if the condition is unstable, it could also lead to heart attack.
3. Pericarditis
It could be pericarditis if the pain under the left rib cage is constant and gets worse while coughing. This is caused when the protective sac surrounding the heart gets inflamed. Although the exact causes of this inflammation are not known, it can be very painful when it occurs. It is thought that pericarditis could arise due to rheumatoid arthritis or when the heart or the rib cage suffers a trauma.
4. Costochondritis
Costochondritis is a condition in which the breastbone gets inflamed. It is mostly caused after surgeries in the upper chest when the breastbone suffers minor traumas. The pain gets even more intense while coughing and radiates towards the left side of the left side of the abdomen and the back. Avoiding strenuous exercises and using hot compresses could be helpful in reducing the pain.
5. Pancreatitis
Being located right under the left rib cage, an inflammation of the pancreas could cause pain in the abdomen towards the upper left part. Since pancreas has its head on the right, the pain can also be felt towards the right side of the chest. Pancreatitis mainly occurs because of an inflammation from overuse of alcohol and sometimes, due to the presence of gallstones. The pain can worsen following the consumption of fatty foods and spread towards the back and the left shoulder as well.
6. Spleen Disease
An enlargement of the spleen can also be one of the contributing factors for pain under the left rib cage. The pain can also be felt while breathing. The spleen disease can make it very difficult to eat larger meals in a single sitting. If you experience any such symptoms, it should immediately be brought before the doctor's attention.
7. Lung Disease
Respiratory infections and other diseases affecting the lungs can also be the reason for the pain under the left cage. However, it is not necessary that the pain is felt under the left rib cage. Depending on the side of the lung that has been affected, the pain can be felt under the left as well as the right rib cage. If not treated in time, this could lead to serious complications. Therefore, it is best to consult a physician as soon as possible. Some of the most common lung diseases resulting in chest pain include:
- Pneumonia
Pneumonia can cause a stabbing pain in the lungs, which gets worse even while breathing and coughing. The condition is also accompanied by fever and a general lack of good health.
- Pleurisy
Pleurisy is a condition wherein the tissues forming a covering over the lung get filled with fluid leading to an inflammation. This puts a constant pressure on the lungs, thereby giving rise to intense pain.
- Lung Collapse
A lung collapse can cause intense and sharp pain which gets worse while breathing deeply. It can even lead to secondary issues such as fatigue, shortness of breath, cough and rapid breathing. A collapsed lung is mainly caused by either a trauma or a surgery of the rib cage.
8. Digestive Problems
There are a number of digestive issues that may lead to pain under the rib cage. For a proper treatment, it is very necessary to identify the exact cause of the pain.
- Heartburn
Heartburns are caused by the digestive acid leaking into the esophagus. Although the symptoms are similar to heart attack, heartburns are very different to heart attacks. A burning sensation is felt mainly in the chest and the upper abdomen.
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome is caused due to the presence of excess gas in the stomach leading to pain on the left part of the abdomen. The symptoms can come in short bouts of intense pain as well as a constant dull pain over a prolonged period of time.
Irritable bowel disease could be Crohn's disease as well as ulcerative colitis. The disease results in an inflamed digestive tract and pain under the ribs.
- Constipation
Constipation can be the reason of the buildup of hard stool inside the colon. This can cause abdominal pain, chest pain as well as respiratory problems.
9. Kidney Stones
Kidney stones are caused by the salts and minerals getting deposited inside the kidneys. Every time the stone moves, a sharp pain can be felt below the ribs. This can be treated with medicines as well as surgery.
10. Rib Injury
Any damage to the rib cage and the surrounding muscles could cause pain under the rib cage. The intensity of the pain depends on the amount of damage. If the treatment is delayed, the condition can get complicated, leading to more pain. If ignored for long, it can even lead to kidney damage. Rib injuries are mainly caused by a trauma to the rib cage, resulting in fractures and breakages.

Apache Guru Behlendorf to Helm Hyperledger Project
May 20, 2016 10:12 AM PT
The Linux Foundation on Thursday announced that Brian Behlendorf, a primary developer of the Apache Web server and a founding member of the Apache Software Foundation, has joined the Hyperledger Project as executive director.
The project is a collaborative effort to advance blockchain technology by identifying and addressing important features for an open standard for distributed ledgers that will apply across industries. It aims to transform how businesses transactions are conducted worldwide.
The project "is all about bringing together developers to build common, distributed ledger technology," Behlendorf told LinuxInsider. "With my expertise and experience in open source and technology, I will be focused on building an open source community to advance the software for the enterprise."
He will "help bring members and community together to build a code base to achieve the vision of blockchain technology," which is "critical for moving an open source project with such promising technology to the next level," he said.
The Importance of Hyperledger
The Hyperledger Project "is an 11 out of 10," Behlendorf asserted. It "has attracted a lot of developer and venture capital interest. Blockchain technology is applicable to a number of industries, including finance, banking, IoT, supply chains, manufacturing and technology."
Every large company "has a dedicated team thinking about how their business will be impacted by this sort of technology." He wants to "channel that interest from developers and the community, set standards, and advance an enterprise-grade, open source distributed ledger framework upon which users can build and run a variety of business applications," he said.
Distributed ledgers "are essential to the next generation of the Internet technology stack," but Behlendorf wants to focus on implementing a few use cases to show real needs rather than "painting a huge vision for the future."
Natural Choice
"The key here is to keep in mind that the very nature of this technology requires high-trust individuals and high-trust processes," said Al Hilwa, a program director at IDC Seattle.
"Having the Linux Foundation lead this is a natural fit given the organization's long-running efforts and cultivated processes around managing large communities of developers in a very high-trust process," he told LinuxInsider. "Picking Mr. Behlendorf to lead the effort is a similarly natural selection."
Behlendorf "is an iconic crossover figure with roots and credibility that transcend the boundaries of individual open source communities and of vertical industries," observed Bill Weinberg, a senior director at the Linux Foundation.
"In particular, Brian's visibility in and into both Web technologies and financial services uniquely qualifies him to lead an initiative that benefits [various industries] and will draw contributors from the ranks for developers in those industries," he told LinuxInsider.
Brian "is the perfect choice to lead the Hyperledger community," said Jerry Cuomo, CTO at IBM Middleware.
"His experience, technical insight and passion are just what the project needs," he told LinuxInsider.
Industry Impact
Bitcoin will revolutionize the financial services industry and eliminate the need for financial institutions as intermediary agents, Pascal Bouvier, a venture partner at Santander InnoVentures, has contended.
"We are trying to be pragmatic and cannot predict how the technology will disrupt or revolutionize entire industries, something as large as the financial industry," Behlendorf countered. "Blockchain technology can be a good solution for the hard problems financial institutions face; how they choose to use it, we will have to wait and see."
Hyperledger has the potential to do the following things, according to the Linux Foundation's Weinberg:
- Lower the cost of transactions and of accounting in general while speeding transaction processing;
- Bring greater transparency and traceability to international financial transactions; and
- Streamline the customer-supplier relationship in multitier supply chains such as automotive, mobile telephony and consumer goods.
It's not likely that financial markets and corporate entities and individuals engaging in financial transactions will eschew existing institutions and practices, Weinberg argued.
"Existing financial institutions in the public and private sector are much better equipped to take on Hyperledger as a platform," he said, "even as its impact changes the way they do business."

American Legends: The Life of Paul Newman
"The first time I remember women reacting to me was when we were filming Hud in Texas. Women were literally trying to climb through the transoms at the motel where I stayed. At first, it's flattering to the ego. At first. Then you realize that they're mixing me up with the roles I play - characters created by writers who have nothing to do with who I am." (Paul Newman)
A lot of ink has been spilled covering the lives of history's most influential figures, but how much of the forest is lost for the trees? In Charles River Editors' American Legends series, listeners can get caught up to speed on the lives of America's most important men and women in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known.
Over the course of his long film career, Paul Newman was one of the most bankable stars in Hollywood during his peak, and that was decades before he won an Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in The Color of Money (1986), one of the eight times he was nominated for an Oscar. Having come to prominence as a handsome but rebellious young man in the mold of James Dean, Newman was able to maintain an aura that viewers found both cool and irresistible even into his 60s, typically an age when leading men find themselves on the outs. Newman was even nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for Road to Perdition (2002) when he was in his late 70s, and he continued working in the industry until just shortly before his death in 2008.
While Newman was a recognizable film star in his time, younger generations know Newman more as a pop culture fixture than as a movie star. Newman acted and directed in Hollywood for six decades, but he was noteworthy off the screen for various pursuits, including running a racing team that was successful in IndyCar racing, but especially for the food products that bore his name.

He has also created and narrated hundreds of hours of online training for Lynda.com and is the author of five books on Final Cut Pro, published by Peachpit Press and Focal Press.

Larry is very entertaining and knowledgeable. The course is a few years old now in an area with a lot of progress. So some of its a bit dated, yet still some good info to be had.

Useful and simple information about video and a bit of sound. General concepts, but used properly, will make your videos look, and sound better.

outdated video! looks like a recording from 10 years ago, tape recorders and CR tv screens. This is a bad stuff really.

Some good advice for beginners but the magazine format made watching several tutorials in one sitting rather a repetitive experience.

Very informative but looking for something even more fundamental! Understanding the vocabulary is have the battle. Listened to many segments several times over to grasp concept and spent time doing additional research. I'll revisit the course.

The Mobile City Council will vote as early as next week to sell a small fire station on Old Shell Road to a local developer.
Per its rules, the council delayed a vote on the sale of the Ashland Place Fire Station to Lafayette Land Company for $368,850.
Bob Isakson Sr., CEO of Lafayette Land Company, said there is currently no tenant, but he envisions the unique 2,200-square-foot facility dating back to the 1930s being used for retail in the front and residential in the back. He mentioned a coffee shop "or something like that" as a potential fit.
"This is the 88th or 89th historic building we've restored," Isakson said. "We restore buildings to their original condition and then seek out a tenant with an applicable use."
Although, Lafayette hasn't started work on the building yet, the city put out a request for proposals on the property that required those interested to maintain the outside of the building, Isakson said,
Lafayette has been responsible for restoration at other current retail building, including: Iron Hand Brewing, the Cheese Cottage, Nova Espresso and others, Isakson said.
In other business, the council approved a resolution to allow Alabama Power Company to install electric vehicle charging stations throughout downtown. The agreement between the city and Alabama Power allows the company to place no more than 14 of charging stations in various places downtown.
The council discussed an agreement with the Mobile County Commission that would allow the city's public works department to pick up scrap tires and be reimbursed with up to $150,000 in county funds. The agreement is part of a larger deal between the county and the Alabama Department of Environmental Management.
The city can now pick up scrap tires, but workers can not go on private property, interim public works Director John Peavy said. Tires will have to be placed in the rights-of-way in order to picked up. However, the tires can't be picked up through a normal trash route.
While councilors applauded the measure, a vote on it was delayed for a week, per council rules. However, Council Vice President Levon Manzie and others hope this will not be the end of the scrap tire conversation.
Manzie pushed for a committee meeting on the subject, specifically to address creating an ordinance to punish those individuals who dump old tires in the city.
"Three weeks ago, I saw a truck with a load of tires and Baldwin County tag dumping spare tires in the Plateau community," Manzie said. "Surely that wasn't a one-off situation. There is a former housing development no longer in use so they go and dump tires there and can go back to their community where the yard is cut and the community is nice."
Manzie, Councilman C.J. Small and Councilman Joel Daves will be members of a committee that, in conjunction with members of Mayor Sandy Stimpson's administration, will be tasked with researching best practices for such enforcement.
"We need to see what other communities are doing," Manzie said. "There have to be some answers among are sister cities, or cities in another state."
Due to Mardi Gras, the next meeting of the council will take place on Wednesday, March 6. Garbage pickup slated for Tuesday, March 5 will take place a day earlier on Monday, March 4, Peavy announced.
