text: Frank McCarthy was a big reason for the early success of the Boston State College track and field and cross country teams in the mid-1960s. In just two seasons, he ran for six different Warriors' teams and was the captain for the 1964 and 1965 cross country teams as well as the 1964-65, 1965-66 indoor track teams and the 1965 and 1966 outdoor squads. The harrier had an amazing senior year, with top five finishes in all nine cross country races, while leading Boston State to its second straight New England State College Championship. He continued his success in the indoor season, breaking his own meet record in the 600 and also anchored the mile relay at the Boston YMCA Invitational, en-route to being named the meet's Outstanding Performer. McCarthy finished first in the 600 and the mile relay at the New England AAU Championships and finished in the top five at the Knights of Columbus and BAA Invitationals, which featured the top New England runners from every NCAA level. He followed the indoor season by going undefeated in the outdoor campaign, helping the Warriors to titles at the Brandeis Invitational, the Southern New England Championship, the NAIA District I Championship and the NESC Championship. The BSC star showed outstanding range at the NAIA Championship, winning the 880 yard run, the 220 yard dash and anchoring the winning 440 and mile relay teams en-route to being named Boston State's Outstanding Senior Athlete. A career record holder in five events at Boston State, he finished in the top five in eight cross country races, while leading the Warriors to an NESC Championship in their inaugural season. He earned the first of two team track and field MVP honors in his first season as a junior after winning the 600 at the Boston YMCA Invitational and taking second place at the New England AAU Championships in addition to placing in the top five at the Knights of Columbus and BAA Invitationals. He led BSC in its first outdoor season as well, winning the 440 and 880 in the Southern New England Championships and breaking records in the same events in the NESC Championship, as the Warriors took both team titles. Following his 1966 graduation from Boston State, he went on to coach track and teach English for 25 years at Cambridge Rindge & Latin, where he won 13 state and all-state crowns. His teams won 15 Greater Boston/Suburban League titles and 25 of his athletes were named All-Scholastic, including five who were honored as the Athlete of the Year by the Boston Globe and Herald. He was selected as the Globe's Track Coach of the Year four times, was tabbed as one of the top 20 high school track coaches in the nation by Runner's World magazine in 1985 and was inducted into the Massachusetts State Track Coaches Association Hall of Fame in 1997.

I am on vacation. I will not be going anywhere. At all. Seriously, when you're gone all the time, home is good. I may even buy new sheets to celebrate.
When I got back to SFO the other day I thought I'd drive home via Berkeley and a seriously great fabric store there, Stonemountain and Daughter. I've been hankering to make a coat. I love coats and own several (more than several, but I shall have a clear out soon). I usually just wear one or two, plus my uniform coat and those coats are all black. I want to make a coat that's not black, something a bit more fun. But not too hard since I've never made a coat and I want to be successful.
Stonemountain has an upstairs section where all the fabrics are half price. They usually have some fab wools and silks up there so I thought it would be worth a look. I found several pretty coating fabrics – gray, black, brown – but knew that this raspberry Italian textured wool coating would do for my frivilous, non-black coat. Raspberry! AND it was $13/yard.
Now to figure out how to make a coat and find a pattern. I'll look in my reference books and online, but if anyone has coat making recommendations now is the time to share them. I also need to find a pattern and that turns out to be the hardest part of all. The big pattern companies have about 2 coat patterns each in their Fall offerings and one is so 80s it's almost fashionable again. Luckily I've got years of Burda magazines to look through. I'm sure I'll find a few to choose from there.
Also, now would not be the time to point out that it'll be in the 80s all week where I live, so coat needs are not immediate.
Foodwise, I got a baking stone at Kohl's sale the other day. It's a rectangular "cookie sheet" but I'd never make cookies on the thing. Pizza and bread yes. The first thing I made was Smitten Kitchen's Shaved Asparagus Pizza and it was one of the most delicious things I've ever put in my mouth. Seriously. I used low fat mozzarella, a bit of cheddar leftover from Mac and Cheese and lots of red pepper to make it hot. Yum. I tried the pizza dough recipe from The Bread Bible and that was good and easy too.
While relaxing in my bed fighting off the jetlag, I was watching a Hercule Poirot (my fave of faves btw) and there is said HP rocking a mighty interesting shawl (he's got a cold in this episode). Gorgeous colorway, interesting use of feather and fan-like pattern. Must note that for possible Raspberry coat coordination at a later date. Also, be afraid. I learned how to do screen grabs and it's totally easy…
Must get back to relaxing now!

A tourist raises her hands during a group meditation ceremony near the pyramid of Kukulkan at the Chichen Itza archaeological site on Dec. 21. Hundreds gathered to greet the sunrise on a day that marked a new age on the Maya calendar.
Tourists, mystics and Maya priests accentuated the positive this morning at Mexico's best-known Maya monument, the El Castillo pyramid at Chichen Itza, on a day that some thought would bring catastrophe.
For years, doomsayers warned that the end of a grand 5,125-year cycle in the Maya timekeeping system would signify the end of the world as well. Some feared that Dec. 21 would be marked by solar blasts, earthquakes, superstorms or other planetary disruptions. But the hundreds who flocked to El Castillo took a different message to heart.
"It's not the end of the world, it's an awakening of consciousness and good and love and spirituality — and it's been happening for a while," Mary Lou Anderson, a 53-year-old information technology consultant from Las Vegas, told Reuters.
Reuters reported that the rituals at Chichen Itza began just before the winter solstice, as dawn was breaking. A spotlight illuminated the western flank of El Castillo, a 100-foot-high pyramid that was built sometime between the 9th and the 12th centuries to serve as a temple to the Maya serpent god Kukulkan. Then a group of five English-speaking tourists, dressed in white, made their way across the plain, dropped their bags and faced the pyramid with their arms raised.
As the sun climbed into the sky, a man with dreadlocks played a didgeridoo at the north end of the pyramid, while a group of tourists meditated on brightly colored mats.
The visitors said they came to Chichen Itza not to face the world's end, but to make a new beginning. "I hope something happens to make me a better person," said Graham Hohlfelde, a 21-year-old student from St. Louis, Mo. "If I can get a little cosmic help, I won't turn it down."

Ceremonial fires burned and conches sounded off as dawn broke over teh steps of the pyramid, marking what many believe is the conclusion of a 5,125-year cycle in the Maya calendar.

The debate over hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, for shale gas has divided communities in mid-Hudson and the Catskills, which cover Orange, Ulster and Sullivan Counties. Opponentes of fracking cite what they say are environmental dangers. Supporters say it is important for the economy and for energy security and would help cash-strapped farmers.
An anti-fracking hunter no longer hunts in the woods he's trod for decades. He says he was made to feel so uncomfortable by the pro-fracking hunting friends who own the land, he just doesn't feel like he's wanted there.
A pro-fracking volunteer at a public radio station quits the station. She feels ostracized because of what she says is the anti-fracking atmosphere.
Then there's the builder of second homes who's potentially put hundreds of thousands of dollars of construction on hold in Sullivan County towns where fracking is a possibility. He's waiting until the state finally decides whether the natural gas extraction process of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, will be permitted.
"Everything has become politicized," says builder Charles Petersheim seen looking at blueprints for Sullivan County homes. Photo: Dominick Fiorille/Times Herald-Record
The possibility of fracking is a divisive issue for many communities.Former Sullivan West Superintendent Ken Hilton, above, voices his concerns during a Town Board meeting Feb. 6 in Callicoon. Photo: Dawn J. Benko/For the Times Herald-Record

The possibility of fracking – and all its explosive divisiveness – has insinuated itself so deeply into so many aspects of local life, the fabric of that life has been frayed.
That is the one thing both sides of the issue can agree on.
"Everything has become politicized," says builder Charles Petersheim, who will not build his Catskill Farms homes in certain western Sullivan County towns until the state issues a decision on fracking.
"The grocery store, the town board, the chamber of commerce. And there's no rest."
"I don't think anything has had the impact on the town as much as fracking," says Town of Highland Supervisor Andy Boyar, whose Delaware River town banned fracking last summer.
"The residue, the hard feelings still exist and we need to heal."
"It's permeating other issues in ways we never would have predicted," sums up former Sullivan West School District Superintendent Ken Hilton. When his district tried to sell one of its unused schools, the issue of whether to keep or sell the mineral rights for natural gas beneath school property became a point of contention.
From real-estate values that anti-frackers say would plummet and pro-frackers say would soar, to farms that anti - and pro-frackers say would either be ruined or saved, the implications of fracking have, for many local residents, become as much a part of the daily conversation as the weather. And even that weather would be affected by fracking, say those against it, because of the polluting climate change they say fracking would cause.
But nowhere in the region is the reach of the fracking divide more obvious than the town, planning or zoning board meetings of Sullivan County that once attracted a handful of residents but now can be standing-room only whenever there's a chance fracking might be discussed.
Take the recent public hearing on the proposed comprehensive plan – or blueprint for growth – in the western Sullivan Town of Callicoon. The plan includes a provision for gas drilling, which fracking opponents (and the county planning department) want removed and supporters want retained.
The steady flow of remarks to the Town Board by the standing-room-only crowd of more than 60 made it obvious that virtually every aspect of local life would be hurt or helped by fracking – depending, of course, how you felt about an "issue (that) can affect us all whether we want it or not," said Nathan Swenberg.
"Are you really ready to gamble with our tax base, our health, our economy," asked fracking opponent Jill Wiener, ticking off the areas of local life she said will be at risk if the town allows fracking.
That's why emotions always run high whenever this potential strand in the fabric of local life is mentioned as a possibility. It's no exaggeration to say that for some, the debate over fracking gets at the heart of what local life is all about.
Those for it view it as the key to economic progress and livelihood in this county where the unemployment rate hit 10 percent in December.
Some struggling farmers "wait every day to see what New York is going to do," says Callicoon Supervisor Tom Bose, who mentions a farmer raising cattle in nearby Broome County who's waiting for gas drilling – and its royalties – to begin, to pay Bose the money he owes him.
But those against it say fracking and its industrial activity will ruin the lifeblood of Sullivan – its pristine water and pastoral land.
"I know people in the city who want to buy homes but won't consider the area until this thing is resolved," says Cristian Graca of Shalom Mountain Retreat in Livingston Manor.
Perhaps the biggest impact of the fracking debate has been on the community itself.
"A lot of people are unfriendly to one another," said Earl Myers at that comprehensive plan meeting.
John Ebert, who supports fracking and the comprehensive plan, put it like this at that meeting when he said he spoke for "the silent majority of citizens in this township" and expressed a sentiment of the most vocal pro-frackers:
"We also have a minority group with a lot of mouth, money and misinformation to slow progressive progress in this township."
In fact, fracking is so divisive, and so controversial, some choose not to express their real opinions about it for fear they – or their businesses – will be hurt. Others say longtime acquaintances with opposing views on fracking no longer speak to them because of how they feel.
"If you're not part of the anti-fracking community, you can be blacklisted," says Petersheim, expressing a sentiment many for fracking say. He's spoken out against the legality of towns trying to zone out fracking, as well as the laws that are supposed to protect roads from fracking truck traffic, but, he says, would also hurt construction activity.
Bose agrees that folks for fracking often remain silent.
"We've seen contractors who can't wait for this to happen, but they're cautious in what they say because they don't want to hurt their business," he says.
And because whatever decision the state ultimately makes on fracking will bound to be appealed, the divisiveness in so many strands of the fabric of local life is likely to deepen.
That's why Boyar – who mentions the cursing and obscene gestures he's seen because of fracking – speaks not only for his town, but also for just about every area that's been torn by the divisive issue.
"The town really has to go through a healing process." he says. "It really does."

Europe: Retreat from austerity
Like the arrival of a new season, all the signs are that Europe is in retreat from austerity.
The retreat is disguised, but cannot be concealed. The President of the European Commission, Jose Manuel Barroso, said: "While I think 'austerity' is fundamentally right, I think it has reached its limit." He implied that a policy can only be pursued if it has "a minimum of political and social support".
There is not a general recanting yet, but the explanations are flying thick and fast as to why the policy that Europe has embraced for the past three years must change.
The EU's Economics Commissioner, Olli Rehn, said: "A period of reduced spending and borrowing was necessary to calm markets concerned about out-of-control debt levels, particularly in peripheral European countries. That time has passed."
The policy of austerity first - authored in Berlin - never had a consensus behind it, but it now lies widely discredited. The French government does not believe in it. President Francois Hollande said only recently that "sticking with austerity would condemn Europe not just to recession but an explosion".
Only last week, in an editorial, the New York Times said: "All evidence shows that this bitter medicine is killing the patient."
Some of the critics of the austerity first policy are in full cry. Hannes Swoboda, president of the Socialists and Democrats (S&D) group in the European Parliament, said that "five years into the crisis, Commission President Barroso has finally recognised the reality: austerity is neither effective nor socially viable".
Serious doubts
Many German officials insist, with some evidence, that reducing deficits and spending has been key to calming the crisis and preventing the break-up of the eurozone.
Even so, in an effort to reduce deficits and make southern Europe more competitive, countries have been reducing demand, even at a time of recession.
The result is what the Greek prime minister acknowledged was "Europe's Great Depression". Greece has seen its economy shrink by 25% in five years. Spain's recession is three times deeper than forecast. The IMF predicts its economy will shrink 1.6% this year. Its general unemployment level is at 27%.
As the New York Times pointed out, Portugal cut its fiscal deficit by a third between 2010 and 2012 and saw unemployment rise to 18%. Across Portugal, the Republic of Ireland, Greece, Italy, Spain and Cyprus the best educated are on the move, seeking work beyond their own countries.
The policy is partly changing because its intellectual underpinning has been challenged.
Two economists - Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff - were two of the gurus behind European austerity. Their basic thesis was that when debt rose above 90% of GDP, growth would decline sharply. Olli Rehn, for one, spoke of "the 90% rule".
Now there are serious doubts about the accuracy of that thesis. It is also being asked why European officials were determined to bring deficits below 3%. In many instances the deficit targets seemed arbitrary. The IMF is not alone in acknowledging it underestimated the impact of spending cuts on growth.
So the austerity believers are in retreat. Ireland and Portugal have been granted seven more years to meet their targets. Spain is likely to miss its target for reducing its deficit. Indeed, it had the biggest public deficit in the EU last year. Increasingly it looks as if it will get more time. Perhaps two more years. Suddenly targets are being eased and relaxed.
For what Europe's leaders and officials fear more now is unemployment, recession, and growing disillusionment with the eurozone that seems unable to deliver. Reducing debt is no longer the priority.
But the question remains - could the devastation of the economies of southern Europe have been avoided, or has that been the price of preserving the eurozone?

Stable Channel Update
67 comments :
There is a problem with links of each bug in this post. All links are of 'Code Google': https://code.google.com
Why for google chrome and firefox the plugin for java AND Shockwave player isn't supported? I mean their both updated-but the plugins won't work or check. Plus when I checked chrome:plugins it has 5 plugins even flashplayer.
@Megan because Chrome 42 drops NPAPI support, i.e. all cross-browser plugins except Flash. It's been announced long ago, in 2013.
Wa-hey! I correctly predicted Chrome 42 arriving in the Stable Channel. 1/41 on update predictions XD
@Megan Ryan - There is a way to temporarily re-enable NPAPI support in Chrome. Go to chrome://flags/#enable-npapi and click Enable.
Keep in mind that in September 2015 (Chrome 45) NPAPI support will be permanently removed from Chrome and extensions that require NPAPI plugins will no longer be able to load those plugins. So, this is only a temporary fix.
Where are the source tar balls? http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-official/chromium-42.0.2311.90.tar.xz doesn't work, currently.
Even in this release it's still better to turn off hardware acceleration
todays date: 4-14-15)
ok, i have windows 7 64bit,home premium. today when my google chrome updated too version 42.0.2311.90 m.
these plugins no longer appear in its plugin list.
wide vine, vlc, java, silverlight, foxit reader plugin, google earth plugin, photo gallery, google update, unity player, google talk.
i did find something today to tell me how to temporally re-enable this, now they all are showing up, i also know that in september 2015, that in the next version of google chrome(in september) i wont be able to re-enable them again ever.
how ever, for the moment, firefox has them all listed and they work.
if i accidently double commented the same thing, i'm sorry bout that, my browser had a ooooopsy moment
Please fix the Bengali font problem in the tab title, omnibar and the 'find' box. The usual fonts are replaced by rectangular blank boxes. Here is a screenshot: http://imgur.com/w3AmQJr
PS: Why haven't you mentioned the changes in your Bookmarks manager? I absolutely loved it!
PS2: Also, please redesign the card in which Chrome shows search suggestions (while typing in the omnibar). Please make it just like it is in Chrome's android version: the card is slightly 'raised'. Also, it would look better, in my opinion, if it takes only some space below JUST the omnibar, NOT the entire toolbar (which contains the back and forward buttons, the refresh button, the omnibar and the menu button.), just like it was in Chrome 27 and prior versions.
PS3: The font problem is occurring in Chrome's Windows 7 versions, but not in Windows 8.
There's another problem: extensions crash. I think all extensions crash while installed from the webstore, but not when installed in the developer mode. Extensions crash every time I start the browser or in the middle of browsing.
The message that is shown in the chrome://extensions page under the crashed extension is
"This extension may have been corrupted."
There appears an option to "Repair" the extension just left to the bin (remove) icon. Screenshot: http://imgur.com/WHLkyo7
Again, this is appearing on my Windows 7 computer, but not on Windows 8.
@Display name, The Windows font problem is an old one: crbug.com/102449 -- feel free to star it.
Most videos on Youtube are not play vs Chrome 42.
Because it's faster and less memory intensive that way.
I am still using an old core 2 pc, today I found that the google chrome appears only one version of flash player, when I play facebook game, the CPU usage reach 100%, so I follow the above instruction to enable npapi version flash player.
Any idea to solve CPU usage problem when using PPAPI flash player?
Thank you.
I'm having a problem with my chrome in recent days: it does not download the dictionary in Portuguese BR for the spell checker and also does not display some icons of
Have uninstalled (including using Revo), allowed the program in firewall and not solved.
A screenshot of what appears in place of the icons: http://prntscr.com/6u3mg8
Google, you better come up with a better solution then what you are going to force us Chrome users on your build that is coming out in September. Sites are not going to bow to you when you disable NPAPI permenatley for plug ins.
There is a lot of coding that goes into plug in compatibility and this is going to cause a major stink.
Great. I used to have probs with facebook-videos. They shuttered and shaked (only FB). I had 2 flash-players in plugins (the normal one and that Pepper one). Always had to deactivate that Pepper-Flash, and videos worked fine. Now the normal Flash-Player is gone, so when i deactivate the Pepper, i can't watch any videos, because there is no other player anymore. And with it activated, they still shutter. So bye-bye FB-Videos. Or bye-bye Chrome...
This is broken. Gmail.com widget for placing phonecalls is not working. the new Hangouts app, is missing phone numbers in search.
Hangouts app in Gmail.com is broken and now one cannot use old Gmail.com plugin anymore. Going to Firefox now....
The new Hangouts app in Gmail.com has broken communication (ie broken sounds) in phone calls.
New hangouts widget in Gmail on windows desktopon chrome browser, not showing ALL phone numbers in search: I am using the new Hangouts widget in Gmail, and am trying to call phone on it by pressing the phone icon. I have thousands on contacts. But when I try to search for a name in the phone number entry field, the search is not showing the desired names, even though the contact exists in Gmail contacts. This used to work fine in the old Gmail phone call widget. Kindly fix this. One can try to see this issue, by having 1000s of contacts in Gmail Contacts, and then try to "search" for that number in hangouts widget in Gmail, while trying to make a phone call from Gmail hangouts. Lots of those contacts will not show up.

@Jack Wilcox Thanks so much for that temporary fix. I was trying all day to figure out why none of the plugins would work for my security cameras different web interfaces or Java's version checker in Chrome but all worked fine in IE, which I haven't used in years. I hope when September comes everything is ready and Chrome compatible.
Has anyone else lost the "Permissions Manager"? (The drop-down when you click on the paper/lock to the left of the address bar). Until today I could make my permissions site-specific. Now it just links to the global settings page. Any way I can restore please?
Very bad bookmarks, unusable. I can't copy the same link in more than one directory, i can't see the directory tree on the left side, etc. Horrible. I'm a Google fan but... what are yuu doing
google chrome Version 42.0.2311.90
no unity player WTF why?
Karl, if you are referring to the Stars bookmarks and prefer the old system (me too!) I found out how to fix it.
and choose disabled.
Only right click enable plugins (adobe flash) if permission to plugins run is set to ask user (in old version i can enable plugin left button click). This didn't work if this options (DefaultPluginsSetting_Policy) enabled via AD GP.
Thanks a lot hedgehog!
If you play games on Zynga.com do NOT update to the newest version if you want to play the games. This version removes all versions of Flash except PepperFlash and it will not allow you to add another version. I cannot play games with PepperFlash or watch videos either as they are too jittery to view. If you want to update, I suggest you find another browser to play the games in because you will get NOTHING done with Chrome 42.
I'm all for modern standards, etc, but why in the world are you removing the NPAPI toggle that the general public is never going to find/use?
Even the most dense person in IT must realize how much of the Enterprise market relies on incredibly out of date Oracle/Java technologies, and your arguments about all the evils of said technology fall flat.
It's like telling homeless people they'd stop being homeless if only they bought a house.
Your approach to the Enterprise market with this issue is high on smugness, and completely void on realism.
The enable NPAPI flag doesn't exist when I go to the chrome flags page.
Thanks, guys! MassDrop.com is finally working again, I can log in without any problems. Good job!
@Scott Glajch Are you using Linux? If so, NPAPI support is long gone - it was removed back in version 34.
Антон Подшивалов is right. This version drops the group policies and if you have set it to "Click-to-Play", you can't activate any plugin anymore.

NPAPI plugin together with "Disable YouTube HTML5 Player" was the only way I had to run Flash videos (basically yutube) smoothly.
Come on, Google...at least give us choice.
I do not like the changes to Google Chrome for my bookmarks. It is harder to access them, the search function doesn't work as well and it takes a nightmare to open one up (clicking is so hard for me as I have limited use of my right hand). Ugg! Not liking this update whatsoever.
Smolniy try this on chrome "chrome://flags/#enable-npapi"

Well, unless java can get support before the last deadline this house will be dropping Chrome as it's main browser. The family here play Pogo Games (which is a Java based game site) and if Chrome cannot run java then, so long, and thanks for all the fish.
What a mess! If you've been using GPO (group policies) to set click-to-play, this version prevents plugin execution altogether. Why couldn't you just default to the nearest equivalent of the old GPO setting?
Now we have to replace this GPO for every single of our customers.

After Upgrading, when click to play is active by gpo, flash movies won´t play. When I disaple the setting everything work right.
cannot watch videos or play my games so what is the use of this silly "upgrade"?
While I appreciate some Google Products, let this be a lesson: Google does not rule the world, PERIOD. I'm not the only one Fed-up with their unilateral decisions and implementation of changes -- The masses are sick and god-damn tired of their arrogance and blatant bullying in the world of technology. Get over your damn-selves. If I choose to use an NPAPI Plug-In, that's my own damn business -- Get the hell out of our lives. Intrusive Nazi's.
Same as Антон Подшивалов, right click now necessary to abilitate external plugin such as Flash Player, left click was a better choice.
After the update, I can no longer see Google Chrome's built in flash which I thought was faster and more stable than Adobe.. How can I get the Chrome's flash back?
don't like a way to use bookmark, make it simple
I'm glad I'm not the only user that doesn't like the change to enable plugins. A single, simple left-click was sufficient before. Adding another click more than doubles the hassle, for no reason I can tell.
Is there a way to prevent Google Chrome from attempting to load all my Tabs on start-up?
It used to be, I would wait a while after opening Chrome, no more than half a minute or so, so that Chrome can cycle through all my Tabs and give an "Internet Connection Error" before turning on my Internet. This stopped it from trying to load all my 90-something Tabs even though I'm not looking at them. Then, I just go to each Tab when I'm ready, and they load as I am ready to look at them, and most importantly, not all at once when I'm not ready.
Now, with this new update, the way it works seems to have changed. Chrome will periodically try to load each unloaded Tab whenever it detects an Internet source, meaning my 90-something Tabs across 2 windows will each try to load, and I'll start hearing a Youtube video from a random Tab start playing and, worst of all, my computer slows to a crawl (plus, my Internet slows down, too, trying to load all those Tabs and the media within).
Is there anyway to go about this? Stop Chrome from loading Tabs on start-up and prevent it from always trying to load/refresh each Tab/page that's not loaded whenever it detects working Internet?
Thanks for any help out there, guys. It'll be greatly appreciated.
I almost cried when I went to open a bookmark yesterday to see that all of my meticulous organization I have spent years on was gone. The hundreds of folders, alphabetized, sorted, and cross referenced for the thousands of links I have saved for my work was all scrapped in favor of poorly categorized "Auto Folders" or a bulk list. And what I'm supposed to just set all that up again for a fancier bookmark menu? No, thank you and thank you so much to User Hedgehog for the fix. As long as I am able to keep the new bookmarks feature turned off I will stay with Google Chrome.
java script
Well it took me 10 years to switch from Internet Explorer. Because I can't upload my checks at the bank and a few other Java things...I guess I will be returning back to Explorer...Hey at least they are not too bull headed to know we need the java.
As Götz Geese says above, where click to play is enforced using Group Policy in a Windows domain environment, you cannot click on a plugin to enable it. No amount of fiddling with the plugin settings in Chrome will enable the plugin to run. A lot of websites still use Flash and this is a major hassle in our environment where we have only recently switched to Chrome and now I have to tell people to go back to IE until this is fixed. Chrome version 42.0.2311.90
PS, I've tried whitelisting sites in the Group Policy object and that does not work, the only thing that works is disabling 'click to play' in the gpo, which is less secure.
So how do I play live streaming videos now ? It says adobe flash is missing :(
How to fix ?
Nevermind I found out that flash was disabled so I typed about:plugins and found flash on the list and re-activated it again.
+1 for the old "click to play"-option to activate external plugins. The left-click was much more natural than ctrl-click and a dropdowm, where I need to choose, whether i want to hide or run this plugin.
Google Chrome 42 fails to start:
Check failed: NamespaceUtils::WriteToIdMapFile("/proc/self/gid_map", gid_)
My code for my photo gallerys arent working on chrome.
Honest question: How is anyone supposed to watch videos using Chrome 42?
I can understand you choosing not to support a particular kind of code, but where does that leave the average user when they go to YouTube, Vimeo, etc.?
There are helpful strangers trying to explain what to enable/disable and whatnot, but doing that causes other hang-ups and problems in the browser.
Why release a new version of Chrome that can't play videos for the average user?
@Sebastienne I don't understand why you say that watching online videos doesn't work for the average user of Chrome 42. If you're referring to the jitter issue with Pepper Flash, I have never seen it before. I'm sure I am not the only one. Furthermore, Flash use on the web is declining, replaced by HTML 5, which Chrome supports very well. Please share your video player problems in more detail; someone will be better able to help you out.
Does anyone have problem with espn.go.com after updated to the latest Chrome Version 42.0.2311.90 m. I can get in the espn but can't click any on the espn screen.
I'm noticing I'm having really bad HTML5 performance. Enabling and disabling hardware acceleration does not seem to help whatsoever.

Tensions Mount as China Snatches Farms for Homes
CHENGDU, China—Fu Liang pulls his battered car alongside Golden Lakeshore, a collection of luxury villas whose salesroom, outfitted with chandeliers and velvet furniture, evokes a nouveau riche fantasy of Tuscany.

Throw some beer in a pail, cover with ice, unlock your door, and you're halfway to a fantastic little house party, right? Mmm, well, err — notsomuch. Indeed, beer has been the backbone of many a decent hang. But the finer points of guest and playlist curation or food and apartment prep are just as essential and rarely, if ever, taught in school. In fact, our partner Bud Light Platinum was so curious, that they offered up some of its smooth, top-shelf beverages to help in our...um...investigations.
So, we thought to ourselves, who amongst our circle of peeps is the most socially deft, the most genial and charming host, the most likely to throw a kickin' thing over at their apartment? We thought, and thought, and thought — and then slapped ourselves for thinking so long. Obviously, Elliot Aronow, the host of the brilliant OUR SHOW video series, editor, and publisher of the equally brilliant OUR SHOW magazine, RCRD LBL co-founder, style and relationship advisor, swag coach, and debonair bon vivant, raconteur extraordinaire par excellence, was just the fellow to ask for tips on how to carry off a quick, easy, bash. So, being good guests, we brought over some triple-filtered Bud Light Platinum to his cozy Williamsburg perch, and, well, you can just click through to see the rest. Have fun, folks.

UBox Worldwide ships to the following cities in the United Kindom:
Whether you are moving to the United Kingdom for work, or are a returning citizen, we make shipping to the UK easy and worry free. Our service is warehouse to warehouse. This means that you deliver to one of our 26 drop off warehouses in the United States or Canada and pick up at the local warehouse in your destination city. This method of shipping saves you money. Pick up at your residence and door delivery can sometimes be arranged at additional costs. UBox Worldwide ships to the UK via consolidated ocean containers. This means your shipment will be placed into a container with other cargo which lowers the cost of shipping.
Shipping Rates to the UK start at $9.00 USD per cubic foot with a minimum of $318.
Rates vary by origin and destination cities. The example above is the rate from Atlanta warehouse to Liverpool warehouse. Sea Freight has a minimum charge per shipment. This means you must pay the minimum rate for anything that measures less than 35 cubic feet. Weight is not a factor in ocean shipping, but we do would need and accurate weight and measurement, if you would like a truck pick up quote.
For an example, 36 cubic feet is equal to 12 boxes that are 18" x 18" x 16"
Ocean shipping rates are based on the cubic volume of the shipment because you are paying for the space your shipment takes up in the container. So, to get an accurate rate quote you will need to know the L" x W" x H" of each box. Multiply the L" x W" x H" and divide by 1728 to get the cubic foot volume of each box and add the sums together for the total cubic volume.
Or use our instant rate quote calculator and it will do the work for you.
All cargo must be boxed, crated or palletized and must be packaged properly in order to be accepted for shipping. We handle personal effects and commercial cargo. Personal effects are usually considered to be owned by the person that is both the shipper and the consignee. If you will not be present in Australia when your shipment arrives, we suggest shipping c/o the person you designate to pick up the shipment on your behalf. There is usually no duty assessed on personal effects, but it varies by country and individual circumstance, so please check with your local consulate or customs office.
The most cost effective way to ship is to ship loose boxes. This means that each individual box is measured and handled separately. The safest way to ship is to palletize and shrinkwrap your entire shipment. Your boxes will be placed on a heat treated wooden pallet and wrapped in plastic. Palletizing will increase your ocean freight costs anywhere from 30 - 100%, because the entire shipping package including the pallet is measured from the bottom to the highest point. It is best to make sure that all of your boxes are the same size and fit evenly on a 48" x 48" pallet in order to keep the cost down.
Marine cargo insurance is available at a cost of $2 per $100 of the packing list value with a minimum $75 . We have had a major change in risk coverage recently .We have been able to obtain "all risk" coverage, meaning coverage for breakage and all other perils provided that your goods are fully packaged and protected . The insurance coverage will fully inspect this requirement before honoring a claim. A word of caution here...I have seen other websites stating that steamship carriers offer free insurance up to $500 per package. Sorry, it isn't so. What they are mistakenly referring to, are the limitations of liability afforded carriers under international maritime law which is $500 per package/freight unit. This means that if the carrier is negligent for a loss, then they are obligated to pay only $500 per unit although the value of the unit may be $10000. Keyword being "negligence". There are many losses that are not considered negligent, whereby the carrier is not responsible. These include Acts of God, Heavy Weather, Tsunamis, Stranding, General Average Strikes, Acts of War, improper packaging for export, etc. Bottom line, no matter what you read, there is no free insurance.
Ocean rates are based upon the cubic space in the ocean container that the cargo occupies with the cost varying, depending upon the country and city destination. Our rate covers warehouse receiving, tallying, loading into container, documentation and ocean transport. These costs are included in your box rate. There will be local destination/delivery charges upon warehouse release per custom of the port. These charges are customarily collected from the consignee at the delivery port but can sometimes be prepaid. It is also important to understand that customs clearance, duties and taxes, if any, are the obligation of the receiving consignee; however, in most countries it is possible to clear customs yourself and normally duty is not levied on your own used personal effects. We cannot be held responsible for customs entry, but our delivery agent can offer this service at additional cost should you choose. Lastly, minimum charges are standard in the ocean transport industry and warehousing facilities. We attempt to keep these as low as possible and they are indicated in the country rates.

Laiderette (from the French 'laideronette', "little ugly one") like Somnambulism was a workshop production for the Sadler's Wells Choreographic Group. Its motifs of rejection and exclusion would be recurrent themes in MacMillan's later work. Maryon Lane danced the lead role, a Pierrot-like heroine; a young girl whose admirer rejects her when her bald head is revealed.
The heroine is one of a troupe of itinerant clowns, who abandon her outside a great house where a masked ball is under way. A mask-seller places a mask over the sleeping girl's face. One of the male guests discovers her and goes inside to tell the others. The host invites the mysterious stranger to join the party. They dance with abandon, but when the time for un-masking comes, her cap comes off as well and her baldness is revealed. Mocked and reviled, she is mournfully reclaimed by her clown family. They hold up a mirror and she sees herself as she truly is. She runs back up the steps to the house, where the host rejects her once again. He returns to the gaiety of the ball and Laiderette is left sobbing as the curtain falls.
The choreography for the heroine, danced by Maryon Lane, was intricate and strange. She moved at first with the gaucheness of a child, swivelling her knees sideways, turning her toes in and out, beating her flexed feet together then arching them in quick relevés on pointe. In her signature step, a flowing arabesque was distorted into an angular attitude position for the raised leg. Her arms were held behind her, hands clenched or splayed out in anguish. Lane later said that she recognised the character as a projection of MacMillan, scared that the world would reject him if people knew what he was really like.
The Frank Martin music, requiring solo harpsichord and harp, made the ballet expensive to perform and difficult to fit into a touring programme; and the Musicians' Union would not agree to the use of recorded music. But de Valois was impressed enough to offer MacMillan his first full commission for Sadler's Wells Theatre Ballet, Danses Concertantes (1955). Marie Rambert acquired Laiderette for Ballet Rambert, which gave it a full stage production at Sadler's Wells in July 1955, with designs by Kenneth Rowell. It remained in Rambert's repertory until 1967.
'Here was a work of near-genius', declared Peter Williams in Dance and Dancers. 'If this and his first work, Somnambulism, are fair examples of what we can expect from MacMillan, we have a choreographer of major dimensions'.
First Performance: 24 January 1954
Company: Sadler's Wells Theatre
Music: Frank Martin
Cast: Maryon Lane, David Poole
Design: Kenneth Rowell

GAO: DHS 'prejudiced' the contract during a botched competition for the $145 million surveillance project.
A major border security project involving the deployment of 50 surveillance towers across southern Arizona is temporarily on hold, following a protest by Raytheon that the government improperly awarded the work to a rival.
In a protest decision released Thursday afternoon, the Government Accountability Office ruled the Department of Homeland Security should reevaluate the competitors' proposals. Among other things, it is possible Raytheon was "prejudiced by the agency's errors" during an evaluation of proposals, the ruling stated.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection -- part of DHS -- had planned to initially build seven towers during the first year of a potentially 8 and 1/2 year, $145 million deal with vendor EFW, of Fort Worth, Texas. The contract was awarded in February, after a two-year competition among 14 companies.
GAO General Counsel Susan Poling wrote in her decision DHS should "make a new source selection decision based on that reevaluation. Should the agency conclude that a concern other than EFW properly is in line for award, we recommend that the agency terminate the contract awarded to EFW, and make award to the new concern."
CBP will Take Action by August
On Friday, CBP spokeswoman Jenny Burke told Nextgov: "GAO has recommended we take corrective action on a fairly narrowly defined set of issues. CBP intends to follow that recommendation and then re-assess our contract award decision. We hope to complete the corrective action by early August."
She declined to comment on whether any of the seven towers is operational.
Raytheon challenged the award on several grounds, including that EFW got credit for the past performance of an affiliated company that will not be working on this contract.
Border security is a key point of contention between the Obama administration and Republicans, as the government tries to stem an influx of migrants fleeing violence in Central America. Texas Gov. Rick Perry this week announced he is dispatching 1,000 National Guard troops to the border to deal with the crisis.
If DHS cancels the EFW contract, it would be the second time the department has had to change course on a virtual fence initiative. The goal has long been to erect a series of towers flanked by networked radars and cameras to detect drug trafficking, human smuggling and other illicit activity.
Originally, a project called the Secure Border Initiative network, or SBINet, was awarded to Boeing in 2006. DHS terminated the contract in 2011, after realizing the department had invested $1 billion in an unworkable concept. The technical specifications couldn't be achieved without development delays, cost overruns and camera performance problems, DHS concluded.
This time, the department opted for scaled back, already-developed technologies that are proven to work in desert conditions. Functioning SBInet towers in Tucson and Ajo, Arizona, will remain.
GAO: Raytheon Has Price Advantage
GAO lawyers said Raytheon might win the project if DHS reassess the proposals, citing "identified errors" and the company's million-dollar price advantage over its competitor -- although GAO redacted specific figures from the ruling. Given that, "it is possible that a best-value tradeoff decision might differ following a revised evaluation," Poling said.
For example, the agency's comparison of each contractor's infrared camera systems lacked "a rational basis and evidences unequal treatment of offerors," she said. The department counted EFW's enhanced digital image capability as a strength in two categories, while only counting Raytheon's special high-resolution camera feature once. Also, the department's determination that EFW's technology "effectively reduced the amount of on-screen clutter finds no clear support in the record," Poling said.
EFW did not respond to a request for comment.
In an emailed statement, Raytheon said the company is pleased with GAO's decision.
"As we've stated previously, Raytheon is confident in the solution it proposed and we look forward to working with the Department of Homeland Security on the next steps in response to the GAO decision," the company said in the statement.

Hart hits 2 homers, Mariners beat Angels 5-3
SEATTLE (AP) Corey Hart hit a three-run homer and a solo shot, sending the Seattle Mariners to a 5-3 victory over the Los Angeles Angels in their home opener Tuesday night.
Seattle became the final major league team to open at home and continued its early success against the Angels. After fans at Safeco Field gave Russell Wilson, Pete Carroll and other members of the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks a raucous ovation, the Mariners gave the sold-out crowd some winning baseball to cheer for.
Seattle improved to 4-0 against the Angels this season. Seattle scored four times with two outs in the third inning, capped by Hart's homer off starter Hector Santiago (0-2). Hart added his solo drive in the seventh.
Seattle starter James Paxton (2-0) gave up two first-inning homers, then retired 14 straight. He left in the sixth inning after straining a muscle on the left side of his back.
Yoervis Medina replaced Paxton and got out of the sixth. Danny Farquhar and Tom Wilhelmsen worked the seventh and eighth, and Fernando Rodney earned his second save despite walking his first two batters in the ninth.
Robinson Cano's home debut in Seattle was mostly uneventful. Cano went 0 for 3 and scored a run. Hart, another offseason acquisition, made plenty of noise.
Hart had the 15th multihomer game of his career and first since Sept. 29, 2012, before knee surgery sidelined him for the 2013 season with Milwaukee. Seattle's rally in the third started when Santiago struck out Brad Miller but the ball bounced away from catcher Chris Iannetta. Miller reached first and Santiago pitched around Cano, walking him on four pitches.
Justin Smoak lined a two-strike single to score Miller, and Hart made Santiago pay for missing with an 0-2 pitch. It was the third time in his career Hart has homered on an 0-2 pitch.
His homer in the seventh was a line drive to center off reliever Fernando Salas.
Albert Pujols hit his first homer of the season in the first off Paxton, a two-run shot. Pujols became the second active player with 1,500 career RBIs.
David Freese followed with a homer to center, but the Angels did very little otherwise at the plate. Kole Calhoun's single in the sixth was their only hit after the first.
Paxton quickly settled down after the first inning. He struck out the side in the fourth and didn't walk a batter in five-plus innings. But his injury could add to woes in a Seattle rotation that's currently without starters Hisashi Iwakuma and Taijuan Walker.
NOTES: Pujols became the 52nd player to reach 1,500 RBIs. … Iwakuma is expected to throw his first bullpen session Wednesday as he recovers from a finger injury. … LHP Roenis Elias will make his first start in Seattle for the Mariners on Wednesday against Garrett Richards. Elias threw five strong innings in his debut last week. "It's going to be a little bit different being at home," he said through a translator. "Felix (Hernandez) already talked to me and told me to be aggressive and stay ahead with my pitches and leave it out there."

By Tom Withers | Associated Press
BEREA -- Mike Holmgren's run as a team president is over, ending prematurely and before he planned.
For weeks, he has hung around Cleveland's offices doing what he could to help new owner Jimmy Haslam. Holmgren attended meetings, practices and games. He talked with players, coaches and consulted with his replacement, CEO Joe Banner, now in charge of running the Browns.
Holmgren made his pitch for the team to keep coach Pat Shurmur and general manager Tom Heckert beyond this season.
And now, there's nothing left. It's time for Holmgren to move on to the next phase of his life, which may or may not include another foray as an NFL coach.
Last week, he knew his work was finished.
"I was done," he said. "I already passed the baton."
Less than three years after signing a five-year contract with former owner Randy Lerner to fix Cleveland's franchise, Holmgren is leaving. His final day with the Browns will be Friday, and after that he and his wife, Kathy, will return to their home in Arizona, where the 64-year-old will contemplate his future.
"We are going to fly to Phoenix on Saturday and catch my breath a little bit and take it easy and ride my motorcycle," Holmgren said. "I honestly don't know if I'm going to go back to work immediately or not and I don't know if it's going to be in football."
This was not the exit he envisioned.
Holmgren thought he would leave amid a playoff push or as Cleveland celebrated finally winning a Super Bowl title like the one he helped bring to Green Bay. But everything changed when Haslam bought the Browns for $1.05 billion and hired Banner, who built the Philadelphia Eagles into perennial contenders.
Holmgren was the odd-man out.
He stayed to assist Haslam and Banner with the transition, and while he got some things accomplished, it became obvious he was no longer needed.
The Browns went just 12-31 under Holmgren, but he's proud of restoring the business side of the Browns and an on-the-field turnaround that may not be evident for several more years.
As he walks away, Holmgren was asked if he feels somewhat unsatisfied.
"Any time you don't reach your goals in this business on one hand then, yeah," he said. "Having said that, though, I really can feel good, and the guys who have been here can feel good about what the future holds. But time will tell."
It wasn't until he left the sideline that Holmgren realized how much he missed coaching. He longed for the interaction with players, and the chance to teach. He still hasn't gotten comfortable watching games from the press box, and he's hinted that he might coach again -- in the right situation.
After reports surfaced that he would be interested in coaching in Dallas if Jason Garrett was fired, Holmgren said he did not know where those rumors started. However, they gained more traction when he recently met owner Jerry Jones on the field before the Cowboys hosted the Browns.
Holmgren said he called Jones beforehand and they agreed it was OK to be seen together publicly.
"I phoned him and said if this caused any problem for anyone I apologize for that," Holmgren said. "He said absolutely not. I said, 'Listen, every time we play against each other, and it's been a number of times, we've always said hello and been cordial.' I said maybe this time I shouldn't do that if you rather I'd not do that. And he said, 'If you don't come and see me' in typical fashion, if you know him. I said, 'OK.' I talked to Stephen (Jones' son) before then Jerry came out. We talked about the stuff we always talk about -- family and the Salvation Army."
Holmgren, who last coached for Seattle in 2008, insists he isn't close to making a decision on a return to coaching.
"As of right now, I really haven't given it much thought other than the fact there are no plans right now," he said.
Banner said if Holmgren decided to coach, the Browns don't have any agreement where they would be compensated.
"Mike's free to do what he wants next in this field or whatever he'd like to do," he said.
Banner has spent time over the past few weeks meeting with Holmgren and has gotten a better handle on where the Browns are as an organization.
"He was just incredibly helpful and professional and supportive," Banner said. "As you know, we were more than happy to have him stay. But as he said from the beginning that once he kind of made the difference he could, it would probably be time to leave. I'm really appreciative of the time we had together. I think it helped me. I learned a lot through it."
During what he called "brutally honest" conversations with Banner, Holmgren gave strong endorsements not only for Shurmur and Heckert, but others working for the Browns. Before leaving, he wanted to make sure some of the people he had hired were given a fair chance to keep their jobs.
"All I could do is be honest and tell him what I thought," he said. "We had to make a bunch of changes in our first year, too. And so, we talked about that. We talked about all that stuff and that was the transition period. And now all the talking is done and I said what I had to say and now we'll see happens at the end of the year."
Holmgren exits the Browns with one regret -- not winning enough.
He feels he did all he could, and although he thought he understood the city's passion for the Browns, it was only when he came here that he fully grasped it.
He's leaving, but some of him will stay in Cleveland. When he watches the Browns from now on, he'll do so with pride.
"When they do well, I'll feel good about that," he said. "I'll feel good for the players and I'll feel good for the coaches and the organization and the people because I was here. I am very thankful that I got this opportunity to do this."

I have a Primetest 300 and have recently obtained Patguard Elite 2.
While having a bit of "Tinker-Time" (as I tend to do before I start using a piece of kit "Mainstream")
I noticed that you can upload assets from pat guard to the PT300.
I check in memory options that the assets have been uploaded and yep they have.
But when I go into Auto Mode again (assuming to re-test, previously tested assets) I still have to re-enter Make Model Serial Number etc at the end of the test.
I would have thought that the purpose of the upload would be so that on a re-visit to a site, you simply enter the asset ID and the tester recalls the settings etc for that given asset. Or am I missing something?

As many of you know, we like to take action and move fast on things that excite us. A couple of weeks ago, Open3DP announced their clonedel process, and we decided that we were going to be the first to jump on board. I posted that we were going to do a Kickstarter project, and begin building a Distributed Clone Factory.
Unfortunately, Kickstarter didn't see this project as fitting within their rules (I guess clone factories go on forever) and turned us down. We moved ahead anyway, and have started ramping up on production of parts and mold kits.
It has been nine days since the github release (the actual open source plates), and we are starting to fill orders for parts today and will be pushing molds out later this week when we get more materials. We have set up a page with paypal links for those who are interested in getting parts and molds, and just so there is no confusion, the prices listed are introductory and will last throughout the month of March. We don't need Kickstarter, all we need is a project and the will to follow through. We will continue to fill orders after April, but we're pricing low to raise money for the shop and another project in the works, so after our initial offer, you can expect prices to go up a little. Our main focus is not producing products, it is helping you make awesome things.
That said, this project is filling the shop with excitement, because it's not just rapid prototyping, it is rapid replication on a local level. With 3D printing and some knowledge (not a lot honestly) of mold making and casting, you can increase your output tenfold. Push this out to the edge, and we move from centralized mass production to distributed mass production.
Because we are bootstrapping Reprap with a cloned repstrap, there is no chance of being left behind in a dead fork either. If your Clonedel is built, you can print an upgrade. If it isn't, you can get the latest bits cast. The iteration time is so short from design to thing that we can actually ship a moving target and nobody gets left behind.
This is the future.
It is in a basement, not a garage.

Cisco Enterprise Video Content Solutions Reinvent Video Training Sessions
Recently, Paul Lanyi and Irene Sandler of Cisco sat down with Dr. Susan Holliday, executive director, Technology & Information Services at Capistrano Unified School District in San Juan Capistrano, CA to discuss how enterprise video content solutions are helping schools use video in new ways. Their conversation, Is Video Training Better Than Being There? delved into the specifics of:
- How to record and watch video content on any video-enabled device, whenever your audience wants to view it.
- How to enable users to search, comment on, recommend and share video content.
- How to perform valuable analytics on video content.
- How to repurpose video content across your organization for training, education, and meetings.
A year ago, Capistrano was leveled with budget cuts, directly affecting teacher professional development programs for the 4,000 employees across 56 campuses in southern California. Dr. Holliday explained how Capistrano uses Cisco solutions—Show and Share, WebEx and TelePresence—live and on demand for professional development purposes, in addition to teacher-student classroom activities.
At Capistrano, Cisco's Enterprise Video Content solutions are not only further connecting students with their teachers, but teachers with their students' parents. Paul noted that Cisco's solutions in the classroom bring a whole new meaning to the common dinner table question, "what did you learn in school today?" Now, parents have the ability to monitor and evaluate how their children are learning and excelling. One mother even virtually attended a field trip!
And with Pulse Video Analytics, students can further pace their learning. Pulse Analytics recognizes voices, keywords, vocabulary, enabling users to find snippets and to browse topics, essentially scanning the content of what's within the video. Dr. Holliday says, "If students aren't in the four walls of a classroom, they still have the opportunity to be social, collaborative and to work as a team – all skills needed for the real world."
How would you use Cisco's Enterprise Video Content solutions to improve learning in your classroom?
