^^^^^Thanks for the follow up, was curious to see how that case panned out...those Karans should have to walk the plank.
I have not heard of this case before. So I just read the news article for the 1st...
So did they lose part of their property or is their view just ruined from building a Dune?
If they lost some of their property they should be paid...
If they can't see the ocean because of a dune tough shiz
so yes, they lost a portion of their property but got a dune that will likely save the rest of their property some day. they wanted compensation for the loss without considering the value of the dune. (btw, i only know what i read - if i got anything wrong, feel free to correct me)
never followed that Harvey Cedars story, but those people... well lets just say if you want to live by the beach be prepared to die by the beach.
this whole 'stronger than the storm' sh*t phrase. c'mon! sounds like some idiotic Staten Island fist pumping crap. nothing is more powerful than the force of mother nature. I would not be surprised or sad if after all this rebuilding we get another storm to take it all down.
i have *zero* patience w/ people who don't take the time to understand the oceanography & coastal geology involved here.
I just saw the interview of Mrs Karans. Wow, she made some real ignorant comments. She basically was saying how making the beach wider is more important than making the dunes higher!!! What an idiot, having a sizable dune with trees is the most important part in preventing the ocean from breaching. These Karans are money hungry fools!
And with the early activity that we are seeing with TS Chantal I hope we don't get another test like Sandy so soon. I know we all like the swell, but i would much rather drop $2K and get OH surf in Oaxaca in August, then watch another Sandy. Which reminds me to start packing soon, 3 weeks of international travel coming up. Hopefully score.
While I laugh at the commercial, I want to clarify that I am not in any way finding humor in what happened to Jersey during Sandy. It could have easily hit my area and destroyed everything here
Now if the Supreme Court can only fix the Asbury Park Circle, we'll be on our way!:) I generally change the lyrics and sing, "Cause we're weaker than the norm, oh ooooooooooo, oooooooooo, oh, oooooo" driving on that out-dated of a go-cart track they call the "Asbury Park Circle.":confused:
Yes, for a $25 million marketing ad campaign, the song could be better, way better. Marketing at it's worst. A far better option would have been to go with something along these lines: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgQ5BJTSv9U Admit it, it's been way too long since you've heard this song.:rolleyes: This whole post was just a lame excuse to somehow link this song in.
Come on Chantal, send us some swell up here.
Gov Christies belt is just barely stronger than his belly. Also, he's wearing a pink button down at the beach in those ads. Come on now! Where is the stone pony tee shirt?

7 Mind-Blowing Easter Eggs Hidden in Famous Publications
#3. One of the Most Popular Cartoons Ever Is a Coded "Up Yours" to Castro
Antonio Prohias was the most popular and influential political cartoonist in Cuba in the years and days before Fidel Castro took over. As one of the most annoying bugs up Castro's ass, Prohias found himself accused of working with the CIA. This of course meant that it was only a matter of time before the state police decided to pull him in for one of those interrogation sessions that never end. Prohias won that particular round of cat and mouse, managing to escape to America just as Castro was culling the Cuban media of its last scraps of free speech.
Watson-Guptil Publications via NPR
Prohias out.
Around the same time, Mad Magazine began publishing Spy vs. Spy, the only wordless comic in its pages. On the surface, it seemed like a riff on Tom and Jerry cartoons, with two characters whose full-time jobs seemed to be trying to kill the other in increasingly creative ways. But as the comic continued to appear and gain popularity, a deeper level of commentary revealed itself that suggested the Cold War battle being waged by covert military forces like the CIA, the KGB, and Castro himself. The comic appeared to mock these spies, who would seemingly stop at nothing to destroy one another despite the fact that they were identical variations on the same model, just wearing slightly different jerseys.
"Hehe! Explosives are fun!"
Don't take our word for it, though. While the comic never had any words in it, the front page of one of the special issues devoted to Spy vs. Spy noted: "Their antics are almost as funny as the CIA's ... They are the only two spies we know who haven't the sense to come in out of the cold. But they have a ball -- mainly trying to outwit each other." Adding to the intrigue of the minimalist political commentary was the fact that the comics appeared to be unsigned. Or at least they were unsigned in the eyes of anyone who didn't know Morse code. Those who did would have realized that those dots and lines under the title were actually a byline: "By Prohias."
Watson-Guptil Publications via NPR
In Cuba, a thumb to the chin is code for "Fuck you, Castro."
Prohias would later explain that the black vs. white characters were inspired by his time in Cuba, where anyone who was not a vocal communist was dismissed as an infidel. He created the early chapters of the cat-and-mouse tale immediately after arriving in New York, after successfully planning his own version of Spy vs. Spy while escaping from Cuba. He went on to live the capitalist dream for decades in America off of money made by the strips, the whole time signing his work like a spy, just like Castro said he was.
As Prohias put it himself, "The sweetest revenge has been to turn Castro's accusation of me as a spy into a money-making venture."
#2. The Lord of the Rings' Fake Languages Are More Complex Than the Real Ones You Know
Lord of the Rings novices might assume that the names of people and places that populate Middle-Earth are just fun little nonsense sounds, or that the markings on the inside of the rings and on the maps throughout the movies were just fun bits of nonsense, or upside down cursive.
If you read it backward, it plays "Revolution 9."
Hell, you could make it through all three of the novels thinking that the strange little scribbles on the title pages were just fun border designs, like the swirls around the edge of a fancy doily ...
Or the little guy playing a horn and riding a dolphin was ... oh that is nonsense?
Even die-hard Lord of the Rings fans who know that those are real, fully formed languages probably assume that they were invented for the novel. But according to J.R.R. Tolkien, the languages came first. The world and the stories that take place inside them were just vessels for him to explore the studio space with the fake words and curly-fry lettering he made up. If you've ever taken a foreign language class, you've probably listened to audio tapes on which actors teach you how to say "Where is the library?" and "Jenny went shopping for sponges today" in the most perfectly wooden French or Spanish accent possible. Well, Tolkien's novels are really just long, drawn-out versions of the Spanish voice actor overenunciating the question, "Donde esta la biblioteca?"
Tolkien was a linguist first and a novelist by accident. He invented 20 different languages over the course of his career, and Middle-Earth was just a fictional sandbox where he allowed those languages to play ball. He laid out the whole tangled, convoluted history behind the languages of Middle-Earth in books like The Silmarillion, which focused on fake verb conjugation instead of orcs, and therefore didn't sell quite as well as The Lord of the Rings. It's unknown as of yet whether Peter Jackson will adapt The Silmarillion into three movies or pack it into two.
#1. Daisy Is Looking at a Naked Lady on the Cover of The Great Gatsby
It's one of the most recognizable book covers in Western literature. If you've taken a high school English class in the past 20 years, you're likely familiar with the floating noseless face that stares out from F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic. It captures the tone of melancholy among Gilded Age glamour that pervades the novel: the sad eyes of Daisy Buchanan, the empty eyes of Dr. T.J. Eckleburg peering out from the billboard near George Wilson's auto repair shop, the naked titties and naked ass of a naked lady being reflected out of the sexy eyes on the cover in a way that symbolizes that some hot lesbian sex might be about to go down. If we lost you on that last one, you're probably not alone. You can look at the cover of the novel a hundred times without noticing the naked lady swimming in the irises of the eyes.
This could also be the webcam feed from any teenage boy's laptop at around 11:30 p.m.
While you can find literary criticism picking apart just about every aspect of the cover and how it ties into the themes of the book, the naked ladies are typically ignored, or brushed aside as "two reclining nudes," as though every person's eyes have those laying around in there.
The now iconic illustration had humble beginnings. While Fitzgerald was still finalizing the manuscript, the publisher had the illustration commissioned by Francis Cudat, a small-time Hollywood designer who was paid $100 and never illustrated another book cover. Fitzgerald liked the painting so much that he claimed to have written it into the book, and literary critics have been arguing over which passages it inspired ever since. But he would later regret the enthusiasm. During Fitzgerald's summer-long European drunk with his friend Ernest Hemingway, both writers agreed that the cover art was terrible and that the illustration wasn't serious enough for the masterpiece it was hiding. It was almost like Fitzgerald had been brainwashed by some element of the art that was visible when you gazed at a full-resolution rendering deeply enough.

I apologize for the MacOSX reference, but is there an equivalent of Spotlight-Search in Fedora, specifically FC14 x86_64 ?
A few releases ago, there was a big push for something called Beagle, which is a "personal space" search tool. I'm not quite sure why that push died out, but the package is still part of Fedora and you can install it with
There's a number of full-text indexers / search engines available for Fedora as well, like Namazu, Xapian, Strigi, and Pinot, but as far as I can see, Beagle had the greatest ambition of being an integrated part of everyone's desktop environment, with a slick UI and everything. Namazu and Xapian are mainly focused on the backend, not the user experience. Strigi also seems to be a dead project. And Pinot looks promising but also appears to be one of those one-guy projects where the developer's continuing interest in the project may be a concern.
Edit: Missed a big one! There's also Tracker —
So, there you go. Depending on how satisfying that is, the answer to your question is either "yes" or "no". :)

For SQL 2008 a Server trigger would do what you want but that's not an option on SQL 2005. Event Notification will do for either. The script below was tested on SQL 2005 Standard and 2008R2 Enterprise. As written it will enter a row in the msdb..auditRoles table when a login is created and added to the sysadmin server role. To get a row for both the AUDIT_ADDLOGIN_EVENT and the AUDIT_ADD_LOGIN_TO_SERVER_ROLE_EVENT remove the "WITH FAN_IN" line in the create event notification step.
You would need to setup a job which looks at the list of admins and sends an alert if the list doesn't meet the pre-defined list of admins. SQL Server Denali has this functionality built in.

Pretend I have a Lego ship that I want to photograph as it's sailing along in a pool. Of course the Lego bricks have cracks in between them so water will leak through. Anyone have any ideas as to how to waterproof the hull? Something that won't harm the bricks that can be easily removed. Also I don't want whatever the material is to be visible in a photo.
I would try liquid latex (liquid frisket) which you can buy in most art supply store.
This will not damage the bricks and is easy to peel off. You can apply it using a cheap throwaway brush, either in between the bricks (like a cement wall) or as a thin transparent layer on the whole hull. I recommend the second method because it's fast, straight forward and the easiest one to clean up.
I use this stuff for all kind of painting and molding jobs. It's a great material.
Maybe you don't need to waterproof it. If you are able to fit a block of foam (eg. extruded polystyrene) inside the hull, that will probably be enough to ensure flottability.
I would tend to suggest another non-waterproofing solution - build something to hold your ship from underneath, that will safely rest on the bottom of your pool.
Of course, if you don't want it to show on the picture, you'll have to be extra careful about how you do it, but I think it's the simpliest solution.
What I would do is buy a large plexiglass sheet (or any other transparent material), make sure your ship is secured to it (drill some 8mm holes in the plexiglass and poke studs in them, or Technic Axles, or whatever). Then you can have someone hold the sheet & ship slightly under water so that the ship looks like it's floating, whereas it's actually not. As long as the borders of the sheet are outside of your camera frame, you're in business.
I owe that idea to a Stargate SG-1 episode I rewatched recently, actually. In the making of, they explaing how they make it look like a bullet is floating in mid-air - they just embed it in a plexiglass sheet and film right through it. It's it's good enough for commercial television, it should work for you too.
Try spraying the inside with plasti dip, it goes on like spray paint or you can use a cheap paint brush, then you can peel off as one whole piece. Best of all it comes in many colors!
Get it here www.plastidip.com they also sell it at most home improvement stores.
Maybe clear contact-paper on the inside?

WACO (December 20, 2012)--A former Laredo police officer was found guilty Thursday in U.S. District Court in Waco of conspiring to traffic more than 1,000 kilograms of marijuana through Central Texas.
The jury found Eliseo Montes, Jr., was guilty on two counts of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute at least 1,000 kilograms of marijuana.
That amounts to about a ton of marijuana.
U.S. Attorney's office spokesman Daryl Fields said during the time of the alleged marijuana conspiracy, Montes was a patrol officer with the Laredo Police Department.
The indictment says beginning in October 2004, Montes, in conjunction with several others, conspired to buy large quantities of controlled substances for later sale and brought some of the contraband to Central Texas for distribution.
The indictment alleges the sales were completed on a 'front" basis, which means the drugs were sold on consignment and the proceeds were later collected from the sellers.
Once the money was collected from the sellers, the funds were channeled through U.S. banks and the currency was laundered and was then used to buy more drugs for sale.
Court documents also indicate the U.S. Attorney is seeking to forfeit $2 million from the defendants, which the government says was profit in the drug scheme, plus any other property that could have been acquired during the conspiracy.

What's the best way to transport groceries on rough roads without breakage? (My town has a generous budget for potholes.) I currently use a 2-wheeled cargo trailer, but it there anything I can do to cushion the more delicate items (i.e., eggs)? What about items like milk, where every pothole causes the liquid to slosh around?
Sign up

Delicate items would probably survive best in a small backpack. Your body acts like a natural shock absorber so anything strapped to your back should get the smoothest ride, especially if you're out of the saddle for the bumpiest sections. Remember to keep the pack light though.
Put heavier items like milk on a rear rack, rear panniers or ideally on a trailer. On your back they can get really tiring and on a front rack they can really destabilize your front wheel (even worse for something that sloshes around).
Fragile and heavy? (e.g. jars, glass bottles) Put them in a carrier on the rear rack, but make sure they're well padded from both the bike and each other.
I don't transport a lot of groceries, but physics tells us that we really shouldn't worry about going up and down so much, but that we should worry more about things getting knocked around. An egg in the carton shouldn't break simply because you accelerate it quickly, it's going to get broken when it takes flight and then falls back down. Uneven pressure is the problem here. Remember, the back of a truck probably isn't any smooter of a ride than your bicycle. You should make sure that your groceries are tightly packed, so that they can't move around so much, and maybe even use bungy cords with a nice soft foam on top and on the bottom to ensure they don't bounce up and down when you do hit a pot hole.
How do you feel about modifying your trailer?
Otherwise maybe just a padded bag for the delicate items (and if there's only a few, definitely stick it on your back as darkcanuck suggests for maximum suspension).
Something like the Bob trailer could be useful. It has suspension.
The BoB trailer is a one wheeled trailer so probably modifying yours to work like the Bob would be impossible. However if you were to build a new one making something like the bob could be a good idea.
My understanding is that one wheel trailers are better for rough conditions.
Edit: The other benefit may be that you can weave around potholes more easily. I have a two wheeled trailer right now too but it is tricky to avoid potholes with three wheels at different spots on the road. This may be easier with a single wheel trailer that tracks directly behind your bike.
I've had experience transporting a laptop, which I also didn't want to jostled. The best padding for it was not an official "laptop sleeve", but wrapping it in bulking fleece jacket, and then stuffing that into my pannier, which made a tight fit. I would be inclined to take the same approach with a carton of eggs: wrap them in fleece jacket, stuff that in a container, and strap it tightly to the trailer.
Also, let a little air out of the trailer tires for some free shock absorption. ( I used that trick today when taking my 3 month old on his first bike ride, in a rear-facing car seat strapped into a bakfiets ).

Hi There,I am still having this issue. My Sencha Animator keeps crashing every time I quit the app. So, It never gets closed properly. Do you want me to send you or post the crash reports here? I am pretty sure it has something to do with the fonts. And the work around for this issue you told me isn't working anymore. It used to crash before too. I have Suitcase fusion(font manager app) installed on my mac as well, Do you think thats causing any trouble? But its saying none of the font database is corrupt.Thanks,Menan
5 Mar 2012 12:56 PM #5
Yeah, you could post the crash report or PM it to me. Sounds like it is something font-related.
5 Mar 2012 3:08 PM #6
Thanks for sending the crash report. I took a look at it and it does seems font related. Since it seems very specific to your system, I'd try to disable third-party fonts and/or disable the font manager software and check if that solves your problem.
6 Mar 2012 10:30 AM #7
Actually i fixed it. All I had to do was open up Font book and I saw there were some warnings on some fonts saying that they were duplicates. I fixed them by turning the duplicates off and now it works fine.Thanks for your help.

I performed upgrade to 12.10 from 12.04 using update-manager. Unfortunately, there was some error, because when I came back from the coffee, the screen was black.
I opened a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and
killall dpkg, which (based on logs and
ps outuput) seemed to be waiting for user input for configuration file update (xdg package , if I remember well).
After that, I did a
do-release-upgrade, which seemed to work well, because I ended on a graphic session after reboot.
The problem is that some 12.10 features are missing, as Online Accounts and Dash new online results. This made me suspicious of missing packages or something like that.
Please take a look at upgrade logs and my new
dpkg --get-selections output: https://gist.github.com/3919006
dpkg --reconfigure -a didn't solved the problem nor
apt-get -f install showed any problem.
do-release-upgrade say my system need no news packages (even if I change
/etc/lsb-release to 12.04)
If someone give me a
dpkg --get-selections of a vanilla 12.10 installation, may be I can force system reconfiguration.

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEA) Amendments of 2004, Public Law 108-446 (Section 602), defines transition services. IDEA focuses on the importance of the student's school program (including career-technical education) being coordinated to reinforce the mastery of the identified Individualized Education Program (IEP) goals. The IEP goals should move the student toward his or her postsecondary vision. This coordinated set of activities is a system working together to assist in meeting the student's goals, both during and after high school.
Transition services means a coordinated set of activities for a child with a disability that is designed to be within a results-oriented process, that is focused on improving the academic and functional achievement of the child with a disability to facilitate the child's movement from school to post-school activities, including postsecondary education, vocational education, integrated employment (including supported employment), continuing and adult education, adult services, independent living, or community participation.
Transition services are based on the individual child's needs, taking into account the child's strengths, preferences, and interests; and include—
(i) Instruction;
(ii) Related services;
(iii) Community experiences;
(iv) The development of employment and other post-school adult living objectives; and
(v) If appropriate, acquisition of daily living skills and provision of a functional vocational evaluation.
IDEA (2004) does not define "functional vocational evaluation."
An operational definition follows:
Functional vocational evaluation is defined as documentation of general work behaviors (e.g. attention to task, work rate, work organization, attendance, punctuality, & physical stamina); dexterity, following directions, working independently, or with job supports or accommodations; job interests and preferences; abilities (aptitude); and other special needs, such as job specific work skills, interpersonal relationships & socialization, and work related skills (e.g. independent transportation, appropriate use of break time, appropriate dress for work). Functional assessments are considered most valid when provided in a specific work environment.
Detailed information concerning the transition process, IEPs, students with disabilities services and other information is located on the Students with Disabilities Web page provided by the Ohio Department of Education's Office for Exceptional Children.

10 Great Volunteer Ideas for Teensby Susan Friedman
Now might be the ideal time to set yourself up for next year's job. But you have to be willing to volunteer part-time in your community. Unpaid work can help you learn new skills, understand more about the workplace, and -- best of all -- give you something to point to when you're looking for a paid job in the future. Check out our great list of volunteer opportunities. Then scope out the possibilities in your own community.
Tips for Volunteers!
Show up. Resist the urge to skip a day, no matter how tempting ("I'm not getting paid. . . I don't really owe 'em anything"). Remember, you're establishing a work record for that future job.
Speak up. Don't be shy about asking questions. Don't be embarrassed if you don't understand something. In the real world, successful adults speak up when they're confused.
Step up. Any time you see something that needs to be done, do it without being asked. They'll appreciate your initiative.

Too old to go to camp but not yet old enough to be a full counselor? Then you might want to find out about the counselor-in-training program at a camp you've attended. Call to find out what's available and what the requirements are. Ask to speak to the camp director. CITs are usually 16 or 17 years old. Some camp for free, some have part of their camp fee waived and other CITs receive a small stipend -- it varies from camp to camp.

Computers & Internet textbooks – for example, Graminicolous Ascochyta species (Mycological Paper) by K. M. Kramer and W. Nicholas G. Hitchon, and Computers Basic Facts (Collins Gem) by B. Samways and T. Byrne-Jones – are some of the most frequently updated books by publishing companies. The field of Computers & Internet is constantly changing, and new editions can come yearly and at a huge cost to students who continually buy new books. So why buy when you can rent cheap textbooks? There are plenty of Computers & Internet books to rent – we have them all!
These problems aren't limited to Computers & Internet studies. Apple and Business & Culture are related subjects that often see frequently updated editions as well. Textbook rentals are much easier. Start to rent textbooks with BookRenter and save on Computers & Internet textbooks, as well as Certification Central textbooks, or whatever you like! They're better than used textbooks.
Nowadays, a student needs the help of a computer for homework assignments as well as general study. Consequently, computers textbooks are useful to a variety of students. In fact, any student who wants to explore their computer's functions would be wise to search out some computers books. For example, a student who is assigned a research paper may be able to create some impressive graphs with the computer that increase the appeal of the assignment. Or, perhaps another student with knowledge of a computer's capabilities is able to track down research that his or her fellow students missed. Furthermore, computers books can come in helpful when there's a problem with a particular function. For instance, computers textbooks may deal with how to solve printing difficulties or what to do if a page isn't set up correctly. In short, books with information about computers can serve a student in a number of ways.
Since textbooks with a computer theme are so helpful to a student's success, an individual may want to acquire quite a few of them. However, a student may not be in a position to buy new books. One option for a student is to rent textbooks. By renting the necessary books, a student is able to get the information he or she needs while still keeping a textbook budget under control. Also, used textbooks are a great alternative for a student who needs a book for a course, but is not necessarily looking for a new copy.
Since launching the first textbook rental site in 2006, BookRenter has never wavered from our mission to make education more affordable for all students. Every day, we focus on delivering students the best prices, the most flexible options, and the best service on earth. On March 13, 2012 BookRenter.com, Inc. formally changed its name to Rafter, Inc. We are still the same company and the same people, only our corporate name has changed.

Can't tell them from the originals, except I like the slight oatmeal taste. I agree the sugar could be decreased. I used Becel instead of butter. A keeper
Bev's Chocolate Chip Cookies
From EatingWell: Spring 2004, The Essential EatingWell Cookbook (2004), July/August 2012
EatingWell reader Beverley Sharpe of California contributed this recipe. She updated a favorite treat by cutting back on sugar and incorporating whole grains. To increase protein, she replaces the rolled oats with 1 cup almond meal.
179 Reviews for Bev's Chocolate Chip Cookies
I did not find the cookies bind well and once I added choc chips it all fell apart. i have used better recipes.
I just made these cookies and they are great! Two substitutions though- I used half wheat and half white flour and I ground in some walnuts when I processed the oats- will definitely make these again!
I tried out these cookies, and regretted it later. They weren't terrible, but they weren't exactly to my likings. I wouldn't suggest these. At least not to my friends.
This is one of the only chocolate chip cookie recipes that I make anymore. They are delicious and fun to share!

Visiting Puerto Viejo on Costa Rica's Caribbean Coast
The first deluxe hotels, however, have opened, as have malls, although a proposed 398-slip marina was killed in 2008 due to local opposition.
Demand is high for accommodations; make your reservation in advance or secure a room as soon as you arrive. Beware touts who wait as the bus arrives and try to entice you to specific lodgings—they're known to tell lies to dissuade you from any specific place you may already have in mind. Refer to the accommodations section starting on page 213 of Moon Costa Rica best of dozens of options.
The overpriced Cacao Trails (tel. 506/2756- 8186, $25), at Hone Creek, is a cacao farm with a tiny "chocolate museum." There are also crocodiles, a snake exhibit, a museum on indigenous culture, and a botanical garden, plus canoeing ($25) on canals through the cacao plantation. Stay a while and enjoy a meal at the thatched restaurant.

Puerto Viejo is known for its lively bars and discos, and folks travel from as far afield as Limón to bop.
The happenin' bar is the Tex-Mex (from 6pm daily until the last guest staggers home), which epitomizes Puerto Viejo's laid-back philosophy; its cocktail list runs from mojitos to orgasmos, and its Jungle Open-Air Cinema shows Hollywood movies at 6pm, 8pm, and 10pm nightly.
A seven-piece band plays merengue, salsa, and calypso at Mango Sunset (tel. 506/8594-2923), a disco-bar, 4:30pm-6:30pm daily; it also has a Tuesday-night open jam, and Latin jazz and "roots" music on Thursday, plus occasional beach barbecues and its trademark pirate's party.
For a groovy disco-lounge scene, Baba Yaga (tel. 506/2750-0587) is the reggae hot spot on almost any night of the week, while next door, high-octane Glow competes with nightly themed music: Latin on Sunday, Hip-Hop and R&B on Wednesday, etc.

Puerto Viejo is legendary among the surfing crowd. November through April, especially, the village is crowded with surfers, who come for a killer six-meter (20-foot) storm-generated wave called La Salsa Brava. Beach Break, at Playa Cocles, about three kilometers (2 miles) south of Puerto Viejo, is good for novices and intermediates. Snorkelers should use extreme caution in these waters, and never snorkel during rough weather.

Food in Puerto Viejo
Puerto Viejo has a cosmopolitan range of eateries, even gourmet cuisine. For breakfast, I head to Bread and Chocolate (tel. 506/2750-0723, 6:30am-6:30pm Tues.-Sat., 6:30am-2:30pm Sun.) for killer cinnamon-oatmeal pancakes ($4), crispy sautéed potatoes with jerk barbecue sauce, grilled sandwiches, and more. Competing in style and substance, Café Rico (tel. 506/2750-0510, 6am-2pm Fri.-Wed.) is a laid-back place serving food on a palm-fringed veranda; Roger, the English owner, serves huevos rancheros ($4), omelets ($4), granola with yogurt and fruit ($3.50), pancakes, and sandwiches. I recommend the Annarosa special: fried potatoes with cheddar cheese, fried eggs, and bacon ($4). It has a book exchange and bicycle rentals.
Alternatively, consider Pan Pay Panadería (tel. 506/2750-0081, 7am-5pm daily), which serves omelets and scrambled breakfasts (from $2.50) and has fruit salads ($2) and fruit-filled pastries, croissants, breads, tortillas, and coffees. The Caribbean Coffee & Chocolate Factory (tel. 506/2750-0850, 7am-9pm Mon.-Fri., 7am-9pm Sat.-Sun.) is a cool spot to enjoy home-baked muffins, macadamia cookies, multigrain breads, and veggie dishes, plus organic coffee and chocolate drinks. It has free Wi-Fi. The squeaky-clean Puerto Viejo Bakery (tel. 506/2750-0511, 7am-7pm daily) sells delicious fresh-baked baguettes, french rolls, croissants, and chocolate cake. For a light lunch, Sel et Sucre Crêperie & Fruit Bar (tel. 506/2750-0636, noon-9:30pm Tues.-Sun.) serves delicious crepes. The clean, air-conditioned Fruit & Veggie Land (no tel., 8am-7pm Mon.-Sat., 8:30am-7pm Sun.) sells fresh salads plus fruit juices and batidos (milk shakes).
Justifiably popular by night, Chile Rojo (tel. 506/2750-0025, 9am-10pm daily), upstairs in the Centro Comercial Puerto Viejo, packs in diners who come to savor Asian-inspired dishes. I recommend the veggie samosa with tamarind chutney ($3.50), Thai fish-and-coconut soup ($6), and the delicious green curry with coconut milk and veggies ($9). There is an allyou- can-eat sushi and Asian buffet ($12) on Monday nights.
Restaurante Tamara (tel. 506/2750-0148, 11:30am-10pm Thurs.-Tues., $5-10) has a shaded patio done up in Rastafarian colors. The menu runs to burgers and típico dishes such as fried fish with patacones (plantain), plus great batidos. For genuine Caribbean fare, head to Jammin' (tel. 506/8826-4332, 9am- 9pm daily), a small Rasta-styled soda with treetrunk stools. I recommend the jerk chicken ($5) and roast fish ($3.50). It has tremendous rootsy Jamaican atmosphere. Another atmospheric local charmer, Veronica's Place (tel. 506/2750-0263, 10am-8pm Sun.-Thurs., 10am-4pm Fri., 7am-10pm Sat.), above Color Caribe on the main drag, offers an open-air perch in a colorful Caribbean structure. Veronica serves pancakes, omelets, and gallo pinto breakfast, plus a large vegetarian menu with raw-food dishes. Veronica also offers cooking classes (and rents charming and simple rooms for $20 pp). She accepts volunteers for the kitchen and at her organic farm in Cocles.
Meanwhile, the world's your oyster at Stashu's Con Fusión (tel. 506/2750-0530, 5pm-10pm Thurs.-Tues.), with an eclectic globe-spanning menu and nightly specials. How about spicy chicken chocolate chili with garlic roasted mash potatoes? Or macadamia-crusted fillet of snapper in white chocolate and lemon cream sauce? It specializes in organic dishes, and has a groovy open-air ambience.
Good for a moonlit dinner of fresh red snapper on the sands is The Beachhut (tel. 506/2750-0895, 11am-noon Tues.-Sun.). Maybe start with mango, avocado, and shrimp salad, or mahimahi with guacamole and yucca. Linger afterward in a hammock with a mojito made by "Fungy," alias owner Juan Carlos.
For an airy oceanfront setting head to the offbeat Spanish-run Salsa Brava (tel. 506/2750-0241, noon-11pm Tues.-Sun., $4- 15), with rainbow-hued furniture. The menu includes tuna ceviche salad, caesar salad with chicken teriyaki, and grilled garlic fish, plus sangria and ice cream. Portions are huge and the fare is surprisingly good. Nearby, the beachfront Restaurante Parquecito (tel. 506/2750-0748, noon-midnight daily, $5- 10) offers a fabulous ambience, with pendulous surfboards. It's good for cheap casados and specializes in simple seafood. Café Viejo (tel. 506/2750-0817, 6pm-10pm daily), the snazziest place in town, serves good Italian fare, including pizzas (from $3), pastas ($5), and a large dessert menu.
At night, a delightful Jamaican lady named Bou Bou sells jerk chicken from her street-side stand outside Johnny's Place. "Miss Sam" bakes tarts and bread and offers meals at Soda Miss Sam's. For ice creams, sundaes, and shakes, head to Lechería Las Lapas (no tel., 10am- 10pm daily). There's a feria agricola (farmers market) every Saturday morning.

ATLANTA (AP) -- Republicans can't seem to settle on an official party line this election year about the old Washington custom of using the federal budget to benefit the folks back home.
It's another sign of the split between the tea party and the establishment.
Challengers want to make U.S. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran of Mississippi and Senate hopeful Jack Kingston in Georgia the faces of a $17 trillion national debt.
Each serves on the congressional Appropriations committees.
That leaves the Capitol Hill veterans to defend their conservative credentials while still arguing that their influence is a benefit to their states.
Some Republicans say it's a no-win situation as candidates balance the need to be fiscally conservative with voters' fondness for public projects and programs.

Charlotte baseball pounded out a season-high seven doubles, including two each from sophomore outfielder Brad Elwood (Indian Trail, N.C. / Piedmont HS) and junior outfielder Justin Seager (Kannapolis, N.C. / Northwest Cabarrus HS), but the 49ers could not keep pace with Wake Forest, falling 8-4 Wednesday night in non-conference baseball action on the road at Gene Hooks Field. Charlotte had a three-game win streak snapped and fell to 4-2 on the season, while WFU improved to 7-3.
Charlotte's nine pitchers allowed nine walks to tie the season high as Wake capitalized on key at-bats with runners on in the game. Three of the Demon Deacons' eight hits, including a pair of home runs, drove in five of their runs, with the other three coming on a pair of sac flies and an RBI groundout.
With the game tied at one in the bottom of the fourth, Wake scored five runs before Charlotte could answer in the late innings. Charlotte had only four singles in the contest, but the seven doubles were two shy of the school record and the most since seven doubles in a game against Radford on February 19, 2007 played at Pfeiffer University.
Seager scored both times after he doubled, to tie the game-high mark in runs scored. He was the leadoff batter of the inning both times.
Charlotte's last double of the game was the only hit of the day from senior Shane Basen (Waxhaw, N.C. / Marvin Ridge HS). After four games at shortstop, he moved back to third base for tonight's contest and needed the ninth-inning hit to extend his career-long hit streak to 15 games, dating back to the end of last season.
Four pitchers made their season debut, with three true freshman pitching for the first time in their college careers. Freshman Micah Wells (Pfafftown, N.C. / Mt. Tabor HS) took the loss (0-1) in his first collegiate appearance. In three innings, he gave up the go-ahead run in the fourth. He struck out a batter and walked one, giving up three hits in the outing.
Wake starter Justin Van Grouw was solid, allowing five hits in six innings, striking out seven. He allowed one run and one walk.
The 49ers start a 13-game home stand beginning with a four-game weekend series against Youngstown State. Friday's contest starts at 4 p.m., with a Saturday niin doubleheader, while Sunday's game has been moved to 1 p.m.
NOTES: Shortstop Justin Roland (Salisbury, N.C. / East Rowan HS) walked and doubled, extending his streak of reaching base safely to 35 games, dating back to last season... Elwood last doubled twice at home against Wagner last March 4... Seager's two-double games have all come on the road, at Missouri on March 10 and at High Point last Wednesday... Seager's four doubles, .455 batting average and .636 slugging percentage are all team highs... The 49ers have hit 16 doubles in six games, allowing seven...

I'm lucky enough to have the same riders every Tuesday and Thursday morning. Even luckier that most of them have been with me since the gym opened over 11 years ago. It's very simple to put rides together for a population I know so well, whether it's aerobic capacity, speed, strength or lactate tolerance, I'll follow the principles of training. And progression will take us many weeks of riding into the future.
To quote directly from the Spinpower manual, "Participation in Spinning classes causes adaptations, whether positive or negative, as a result of training. The participants that aim sensibly develop positive results. However, when guided unscientifically, negative consequences can occur. The best possible outcomes are achieved when training includes a gradual progression of stressing muscles and energy systems plus appropriate recovery to repair the cells." As Spinning instructors, or simply, coaching human bodies on a bike, it's important we keep the basic principles of training in mind: overload, recovery and progression. It makes it easy to create profiles.
Here's a ride that is all about increasing strength, force and lactate tolerance:
1 min. full gas, or the highest workload one can sustain for a full minute 7-8 RPE
2 min. back off to a 6 RPE or one's aerobic ceiling
1 min. full gas
2 min. aerobic ceiling
5 min. recovery
REPEAT for a total of 3 sets.
That's just 2 minutes of work done above threshold, and 4 minutes at one's aerobic ceiling. We'll do 3 sets that are climbing specific, with 5 minutes of active recovery in between. That would give you 33 minutes of main sets, sandwiched with a warmup and a warmdown.
The physiological benefits of this ride are increasing strength and force on the bike by stressing muscle fibers and energy systems associated with climbing around threshold. Working with load that supports a cadence between 60-80 RPM in this range stresses both ST and FT muscle fiber. The energy systems taxed, very generally, are both the aerobic and anaerobic systems.
Assuming the riders recover via sleep, nutrition and hydration, restoration should occur within their cells. The adaptation is they'll become stronger than before. How can we progress this structure to gradually increase the training stress? We could add one more minute of full gas to make the set 7 minutes instead of 6. We could do 4 sets instead of 3, we could decrease the recovery to 4 minutes instead of 5. There are a lot of possibilities, all based on the same premise.
My students love to know what they're doing and why, and enjoy being able to measure strength gains via the power meter. Without the ability to measure power, a rider could notice a lesser perceived exertion at the same heart rate, a lower heart rate at a high perceived exertion, the freshness to do another set, or a quick recovery in heart rate.
Keep it simple: overload, recovery and progression. Throw in individuality (one's HR or power parameters), and specificity (speed, stamina, strength)and class construction can be a breeze.

I was about to use an online MD5 checksum calculator when I realized that my result could be added to a database. This is significant because the string I was going to type in was my bank password. Could online hash calculators be dangerous?
Yes, submitting your password to any website is dangerous.
There's nothing special about online hash calculators, think of it as no different from typing it in to Google or posting it on StackExchange. Not only could that website be storing the entered password but if you aren't connected over HTTPS then anyone could sniff that password.
If you want to calculate the MD5 of your password (though I'm not quite clear why you would?) do it locally - there's plenty of software a Google away to help you.
Potentially yes, the hash could indeed be stored in a database for malicious use.
Never input your password into a third party website unless you trust the provider of the service AND the service is using some sort of authentiation/encryption scheme(SSL, HTTPS).
You could easily generate your own hashes on your own system, using MD5 libraries of various programming languages.
Of course anything can be considered dangerous - you certainly should not be putting any sensitive information into a system when you are not sure what's being done with it. Also a lot of these online calculators don't use https so your password would be sent in the clear anyway, so thats bad before getting started with what they are doing with it.
If you are wanting to calculate hashes you can do this locally on most operating systems particularly with something as simple as MD5, where there is support for it in almost all programming / scripting languages. So it would be best to do it locally unless the hash you're wanting to calculate is not sensitive anyway.
For example you could calculate it locally using python in 2 lines

Log All Events to console
Log all events to console.
These have been thought of before by other people
1- createInceptor functions on Ext.mixin.Observable
2- Override Ext.mixin.Observable
3- Override events on a component level
The application starts. The log functionality is enabled. A view gets rendered. The console prints which view and that it was rendered.
Another view gets rendered. The console prints which view and that it was rendered. And so on.
Sencha Touch 2.1
I can't seem to log all events!
Note that this topic has been discussed before- frequently.
1- Explain to me how to do it correctly in a way that is tested and reproducible in ST2.
2- Or help me find errors in my code.
3- let me know if it's not possible
I want to log both DOM events and "synthetic" events.
I want to be able to log all events after the applications is running and stop logging them at any time.
This is not a bug report!
In Ext.Js and Sencha Touch 1.1, these conceivably worked (strat 1)
In Sencha Touch 2.0, this may have worked (strat 2)
In Ext.Js, this must have worked (strat 1)
In Ext.Js, a different way using capture worked/works
In Ext.Js someone ran into the same problem as me for a brief period of time:
I'm having trouble logging all events to console, even though it has been debunked before.
Attempting to create interceptors on the observables prototype has no effect, and overriding the class also has no effect.
My code testing both methods is attached at the bottom in a zip (must change the paths to your sencha source and css in index.html).
Adding interceptors to the observable class definition- or anything close to it is much preferred. I'd like to avoid overriding because I'd like to be able to log all events and stop logging all events, and I'm not sure if you can detach an override. I don't want to override things on the component level because it's more code. I want it to be generic.
Any and all advice appreciated.

I use this code:
Ext.Component.prototype.fireEvent =Ext.Function.createInterceptor(Ext.Component.prototype.fireEvent, function() { console.log(this.$className, arguments, this); return true; });Code:
// No mouse version Ext.Component.prototype.fireEvent = Ext.Function.createInterceptor(Ext.Component.prototype.fireEvent, function() { if (arguments && arguments[0].indexOf("mouse") === -1 && arguments[0] != "uievent") { console.log(this.$className, arguments, this); } return true; });

Thank you!! This is powerful stuff that definitely solves my problem.
I would consider this answered unless you or anyone else would like to explain why this works, and why intercepting or overriding the Observable mixin should be avoided. This would be the on the thought side of things as I do not have a firm grasp of mixins.
EDIT: forgot to mention by changing "fireEvent" in the above code to "doFireEvent", non-custom events like tap and release will be revealed.
Thanks again

You are welcome, It can seem strange but I spent several hours getting these simple lines of code working.
But it is really very useful if you are looking for the right listener to use!

I am wondering about a weird deadlock and after checking all other components I am considering it to be a INITRANS problem in Oracle 11.2.
Now three questions arose:
Is there some way of analyzing how full the blocks are?
My database reached its max tablespace size a while ago and started rejecting inserts, then I added another data file, but this only grows if nearly all the space is used up. My PCT_USED is 96%. Is my assumption correct that all data blocks will be totally stuffed and a INITRANS deadlock is likly?
Is there some way of seeing an INITRANS problem in a deadlock trace?
I'm happy about partial answers as well.

How would you put up/frame a wall where the 2x4 studs are turned flat to make the wall 2" thick? One especially tricky thing is that (it seems that) all nails must be toenailed since a 3.5" long 16d nail isn't long enough to attach the 3.5" tall plates to the studs. Are there any suggestions on how to avoid toenailing or how to toenail effectively with a nail gun so that they go in at the right angle to grip well, not split the 1.5" thick wood and not stick out the other side?
If you're willing to put a little extra work into it, using screws instead of nails can really help make this kind of "light" framing much more durable. It's a little/lot more time consuming, depending on how much you love your power drill, but well worth the extra time, in my opinion.
Are the top and bottom plates already installed? Could you use a 2x2s for the top and bottom plates? Then you could nail (or screw) through from the outside of the plate into the stud.
An easy way to complete a wall like you describe is to build it flat on the floor. That way you can screw or nail the studs to the plates through the plates. I recommend installing a separate plate on the floor or across the upper joists first. Floor usually works best. Then simply measure the shortest dimension from the floor plate you just installed to the joists and build your wall to that measurement less 1/4 inch. Now you can stand it up usually without the angle getting hung up on existing ceiling and walk it into place. If you don't use the extra separate plate, it is almost impossible to stand it up into place. Attach it to which ever plate (top or bottom) you installed first, then shim it to keep it stable and plumb it as you nail it to the bottom plate or the joists. When you build the wall on the ground, lay out your 16 inch centers etc. Flush up the second plate to the one you just marked and transfer the marks to other plate with a square. Now you know where to place the studs between the plates. This method is the most common practice for building non-load bearing walls in an existing structure and works with any size lumber you want to use.
I've done this before and typically I'll frame the whole thing with 2x2's (top & bottom plates + 2x2 "studs").
It can be tricky finding straight 2x2's though, so often I'll just buy 2x4s and rip them in half on a table saw.
I would consider using tie plates with 8d nails. Perhaps T-shaped or triangular plates. Be sure to check your local building code.

Now, to get to what I originally came here to do:
But seriously, this is great news. You guys can stop blaming it all on Potato Head now. Who's the new scapegoat gonna be next time? Will it be a limping Steve Nash that wasn't too old to join the team and run the offense but will be way too old if he gets injured often and can't produce like he used to? Or will it be fan-favorite bitchmadenigga, Pau Gasol, who despite having pretty good numbers throughout his career is never doing anything good enough for fans unless they win the game in which case he dominated?

Oh man, that whole James Harden thing sure was fun right?
Not counting those first two games, he's only averaging 19.8 points on 33% shooting and the Rockets are 1-4.
Woah shit, it's like we were expecting to win a championship with Jeremy Lin, James Harden, and Omer Asik as our primary scorers. I know we have Chandler Parsons and Patrick Patterson, perennial All-Stars, MVP candidates, Defensive Player of the Year candidates, Hall of Famers and shoe-ins for the 2016 Olympics, but they can't do it all on their own. James Harden obviously needs to step his game up like Kobe did so they can have a better record than 3 - 4. 3 - 4? Really, Houston? That's pretty ass-tier, only ass-tier teams have 3 - 4 records. Who the fuck can expect to win a championship after starting off the season 3 - 4?
Oh, right.
Edit: We play each other next Sunday. You better hope them Laker faggitz win.
Double Edit Upper Max: Houston is 4 - 4 and LAL are 3 - 5. At this point in the season we're a better team than they are. No excuses, Lakers straight ass.
Last edited by KD_Alpha; 11-14-2012 at 11:30 PM.
Houston always comes up short when it comes time to actually be relevant.
Harden scored 20 with 18 shots taken, fucking MWP scored 15 with 8 shots taken.
Fucking Kobe with a bad wrist and left knee last season still scored on a higher percentage than Harden in his prime so far. And Kobe got one more assist than your starting PG tonight.
No wonder no one expects shit from this team, bunch of overpaid, overrated bums.
When Pau GaSoft is pushing your dudes around it's time to kill yourself Rocket fans.

Congrats on beating Houston, Lakers. Must've been a huge accomplishment for you guys. The Lakers look great against sub-500 teams this season. If you guys face a bunch of those in the post season I smell another championship.
But in all seriousness, I hate Jeremy Lin. Mostly because we gave him that super ridiculous contract, because at least Asik and Harden are producing something. Chandler Parsons has been the only bright spot in what will otherwise be another shitty season for us, but if we can get rid of McHale, Morey, Lin and build around Parsons, Harden, and Asik we should have a playoff contender going forward.
LOL James Harden straight up gave up last night vs Utah.
That team is going places.
Old, but still awesome.
I hope he slams on Dwight this year. Kinda like this:
Only, I want Dwight to retire forever afterwards. Like Phil Jackson did after this game:
Y'know, the one where they got absolutely destroyed and humiliated for Phil's last game ever. It's like life knew he didn't deserve all those rings.
The two weeks after that game involved yelling "Jason Terry" whenever someone would make a corner 3 in SoCal pickup game.
Everyone was practicing their fall-away, one-foot, leaning, fade away 3's down here. The effect was widespread in Texas.
Someone should let Kobe know that the Lakers could win a lot more if he wasn't taking 30 shots and only handing out 3 assists a game.
George Hill, son? Over Dwight? Over Pau? Twice?
That D'Antoni defense at its best.
We already have a better record at this point in the season and if we can beat the Thunder tonight we can argue that we're still the better team. I thought with all those All-Stars they bought L.A. would at least be in the playoff picture, but, wow...what happened?
"oh man no one plays boring ass sf4 anymore, better get the thread back on page 1 maybe someone will feed my ego."
"oh man I don't have a response to this I better just play it off and bring up some shit totally not relevant in order to side track everyone from the real issue at hand; why the Lakers still fucking suck."
My team aint the one that just got anally ravished by 20+ points, George hill made some hero ball plays, we didn't get DESTROYED.
Shout outs to Harden peacing out of games half-way through them.
Again, a team that was literally assembled during this season, with their head coach out, literally the youngest team in the league, in rebuilding mode, having come from a funeral...and we still look better than the Lakers. By all means we should be the worst team in the league yet we're riding that .500 bar just like D'Antoni's club.
The Thunder are a championship contender with something to prove. Their record indicates that. Their last 2 wins indicate that. Last year indicates that. If we had won it would've been amazing because we are nowhere close to being as cohesive a unit as the Thunder. The funny thing is, taking records right now into account, we're just as good as the Lakers are right now. That's no MVPs, no championship experience, no head coach, no experience playing together at all, no DPOTY winners, nothing close to the caliber of roster the Lakers and yet, we still have the same record.
The issue is never going to be why is Houston so bad in its first year of rebuilding mode. Anybody who expects anything more than a playoff appearance at best is fooling themselves. The issue is solely with the Lakers. They have a legitimate HOF PG, SG and C (if he can win a championship) in their starting line up with a great coach in Mike D, and solid players all around them in Gasol, Hill, Jamison, MWP, Meeks and even Blake on occasion. And they still suck as much as they do. This was supposed to be better than Boston or Miami's big 3. It's closer to the Malone and Peyton Lakers.
Houston's gonna be okay, I can promise you that, but when the Lakers fall again in the first or second round of the playoffs, will Lakers fans really be able to handle that truth? The one where Dwight jumps ship after a failed experiment, and Nash and Kobe set to retire, leaving L.A. a smoking crater of empty promise? Because its obvious to everyone outside of L.A. that the future rides on this season and this season looks bleaker and bleaker with every game.
There's hope for you yet KD, Ono just teased a new balance for SSF4: FUCK THIS IS BORING EDITION v2012
I actually hope they don't balance it. This version isn't completely broken and stupid as all fuck. Only sometimes now, where it used to be all the time. Any more tinkering will result in what is sure to be a manure fire.

I am using the standard Architect install (build 676) with whatever version of ExtJs is it configured to use.
I cannot recreate the issue. When I had an issue, I simply deleted the button and added a new cycle button. So all is good.
The only reason that I reported the issue was because Architect asked me to

Does anyone know a mean of putting a 'time' command before every command in a bash session?
Sorry for the wrong answer before, I missunderstood your question.
To have the time added before every command that you execute on the shell you can do something like this
This will rebind the return key. Now every time you press return instead of writing a newline \n it will go to the beginning of the line, enter the text 'time' and a space, go to the end of the line and enter the newline \n thereby producing the desired effect.
If you don't want to sacrifice your Enter Key you could make a 'second' benchmark-enter Key like F12 by binding the command like this
Now instead of replacing the return key you bound F12.
The background of all this is that bash uses GNU readline to read commands. So readline would be a good starting point for further command manipulation, etc.
I realize that this is outside of the scope of this question but...
Every command that takes longer than 5 seconds (I'm pretty sure) will display the output of
PS1 seems like the standard way to do something like this.
Include \t in your prompt string. It will include the time in your prompt at the point where you include it. See: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-tip-prompt/

Is my information protected? Or can someone tell where I live by my domain name? Why do hosting services offer a protected information service for extra money? How can I view that information?
You should not use a registrar that charges extra for private registration. A domain owner shouldn't have have to pay off their registrar to keep their private info off of the internet. That's akin to extortion or blackmail ("pay this extra fee or we're going to give your billing address and contact info to strangers").
It costs the registrar nothing to keep your registration info private, thus many registrars provide this option completely free of charge. So why use shady registrars who charge you money just to not give out your personal info? After all, they're liable to screw you over in other ways as well if their ethical standards are that low.
If you register a domain name without protection, a quick WHOIS search will yield your name, email, street address, and fax. With protection, it looks like this:
I recommend you spend the extra few dollars for protection, however if you are a small business or indivual who has no need for it, then don't purchase it. This is more for people to whom security and privacy is a concern.
Without WHOIS protection, not only people can view your personal data when inspecting your domain, they can GOOGLE your personal data by your name - and they can see not only your address but also all the domains you own. That is because some websites cache whois results as web pages e.g. http://whois.domaintools.com (I'm not sure that's even legal)
But it depends on registry (what is the domain extension) - for example my national registry hides WHOIS information for individuals by default and there is no need to pay extra for that. Also, if you look around, you may find companies that offer WHOIS protection very cheaply or even without any extra charge.
Finally, I would say that today privacy is needed for security.

Spring Greening 2015
New Orleans for March 16-20, 2015.
Our flagship event, Spring Greening empowers local leaders in the green restoration of their own homes and communities while also providing green restoration of the culturally important, hurricane-ravaged Lower 9th Ward of New Orleans. We make it happen through an intensive series of service learning projects paired with hands-on educational sessions. There are 3 broad areas of focus over the course of each 2-week set of session: Green Homes, Green Spaces and Green Communities. Each year, more than 100 students, young professionals and skilled professionals from around the country gather to volunteer in this proud historic neighborhood.
To register for this year's Spring Greening click here.
"Spring Greening helps our entire Lower 9th community chart the path toward an energy efficient, sustainable community that serves as a model for other communities across the country."
- Charles Allen III, Resident and Past President of the Holy Cross Neighborhood Association
New Orleans' Holy Cross Neighborhood and the Lower Ninth Ward offer one path to what we're calling "sustainable preservation." Nowhere else could it happen on such a scale as here: an entire community struggling to recover and rebuild (yes, STILL struggling) in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Our sixth annual Spring Greening event in New Orleans is scheduled for March 16-20, 2015.
Green homes. Green spaces. Green community. Historic Green is an unprecedented opportunity to integrate sustainable practices with preservation of a place.
Help Us Plan Spring Greening
Spring Greening is completely organized through volunteer leadership. We need your help in planning the many details and logistics of this exciting event! This is a great opportunity to develop leadership skills through action, to grow your national network of green-building contacts while enhancing your resume, and setting the stage for making a big difference to a community that needs our help!
Can't make it to New Orleans? That's generally okay, as we still need help in getting everything planned so it can run smoothly on the ground. Worried you may not be qualified? Many positions require more enthusiasm than direct experience, so don't be afraid to try something new.

Kansas-based company helps bring '42' to Kansas City
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (AP) - A Kansas-based financial company is playing a critical role in bringing advance screenings of a new movie exploring Jackie Robinson's transition as Major League Baseball's first black player to Kansas City, Mo.
Overland Park firm Waddell and Reed used its relationship with production company Legendary Pictures to land the April 11 screenings of "42", proceeds of which will benefit Kansas City's Negro Leagues Baseball Museum.
Thomas Butch, executive vice president at Waddell and Reed, announced the screenings Wednesday at a news conference at the museum. He says Kansas City will be the only place other than Los Angeles where the movie will be shown a day ahead of its official opening.
Robinson began his professional career with the Kansas City Monarchs in 1945 before joining the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947.

Everything was great :) Can only recommend it.
Great location within 5-10 minutes walk to east croydon.Good walking distance to the shopping centre in Croydon. Apartment better then expected. Fully equipped, good heating. Had some problems connecting to the WiFi and to get hot water in the kitchen and sink I the bathroom, other then that,fully satisfied.
a nice place to visit
Nice flat with everything you need when travelling with family. The house is located close to the sea in a calm and charming little street. Bus stop is a couple of minutes. A great base to discover The Hague and basically the whole country. Our host was really helpful and friendly. I would return any time!
Perfect apartment for a long weekend with friends in Prague .
Everything was just fine - especially the terrace .
A great apartment well equipped good value for money, with a great view over the marina. This is the fifth time we have been to dives/ cabourg and would definitely stay here again.
Great location, only a short walk from all the sights and the apartment was much bigger than we expected - massive bathroom and really big social areas (lounge and kitchen is open plan, and pretty big!)
We would like to recommend this place to anyone who want to spend free time in cote d'azur region. This flat is perfect for two people, it's situated in a location from which you have good acces to all intresting places, there are nice views from outside the window, in addition you can rest by the pool.
The view is excellent. Alps with your morning coffee. Quiet, everything within walking distance. Service, however, is low. A few things is missing in the appartment: table cloth, a frying pan, salt&pepper, hand soap, sufficient toilet paper. In addition, cleaning is not satisfactory - we found old chips/crisps and candy under the beds! On top of this, the Swiss system of paying 25 Swiss Francs for linnen pr. person plus 39 Swiss Francs for cleaning pr. person and the tourist taxt (5.8 Swiss Francs pr. person per day) added a nice 150% to the total costs of our three day stay. It would be more honest to present future guests with a clear total price. What good is a bed without linnen? A hotel might turn out to be the best option and cheaper in the end.
Everything was allright. The resort is beautiful, it is a quiet place not far away the see. We found on the last half of the vacation a supermarket in the city center, but there are small shops in the near. The keyholder was very helpful and correct, he helped us every time, we called him. There is just one negative or inconvenience, but it is not the keyholder's false, it is not easy to find the apartment at first time. The address is Via Rota 16, the Via Bernardino Rota is the other end of this street. But, thanks to this, we recognized the area of the apartment.
So, all in all, this was a great week and thanks to the keyholder and to Interhome. I hope, we will repeat soon.

I'm just beginning linear algebra at university and have a teacher who moves very fast and has pre-done slides so i can't actually see the problem worked out, he just talks it out. On top of this, he's also from China and heavily accented, making him hard to understand.
Anyway, i have an augmented matrix, and i want the values of $h$ that make it consistent:
$$\left[\begin{array}{cc|c} 1 & h & -5 \\ 2 & -8 & 6 \\ \end{array}\right]$$
and quite frankly, i'm not sure just how to start. I tried eliminating the 1 in the second row, but that made the second line $[0\;\;\; h+4\;\; -8]$ and i'm not even sure if that's the right direction or even allowed.
Thanks in advance.

Lynch everybody else for not weighing in on the anthropomorphic Disney animals subject in a timely fashion.
What he said.
Sorry guys! Busy day at work. I've randomized the roles and I'm sending 'em out now.
It was a dark and spooky night. It was so dark, that nobody could even tell what the setting was yet. What they could tell is that it was definitely night time. Typically bad things don't happen during the night. This is not your typical story. Unless you typically read stories about bad things that happen at night. In which case, yeah. Typical.
There are eleven of you play. I have decided to keep this barebones, which means, there will be two Werewolves, one Seer, and a bunch of unpowered Villagers. However, there is a twist. At the beginning, there will be one Werewolf. At any time during the game (day, night, right before he's hanged, whenever), he may PM me to name one other player. That player will then be converted to a Werewolf.
Night phase begin!
Werewolf: tell me who to kill
Seer: tell me who to look into
Everybody else: post pictures of pillows and other sleepytime things.
Just checking in
I made the right decision to stay out of this one I guess...just got off of a 14 hour day. In about 8 hours I need to get up and start getting ready for another one. This fucking sucks.
In the small town far away from the seat of the empire, nobody had yet heard news of the rat plague that was ravaging the city. Not until a mysterious traveler passed through the town, bringing word of the horrors of the city. Also, he didn't wash his hands after pooping, and then he got all up into the complimentary popcorn at the local pub. Unbeknownst to the townspeople, he brought the plague from the city, and spread it to one of them before making his way up the road to the next town.
When the villagers woke up the morning after he left, there was a foul stench permeating the area. After not very much searching, the townspeople found the culprit. A handful of rats were nibbling on the remains of a villager, but evidence of dozens more--tiny footprints in blood leading to the sewers--was apparent. Something strange had brought all of these rats up to feast on human flesh. It was almost as if they were being controlled by somebody. And poor Artful-dodgeR, he was the first to find out, in the most unfortunate manner.
Artful-dodgeR has been swarmed by a plague of rats and eaten alive.
Day phase begin! We're voting like we have been for the past few games. Your vote is public, but can be changed as long as there is at least one person who has not voted. Once the last vote is cast, votes are locked. Tie votes cause non-action. Get to discussion!

Mouse, I'm serious. Europe.
Why yes, those are words. Next, you'll learn how to string them together into coherent sentences!
This tone with me and take, Dex.
Just so I can be clear, Dex, you're saying that if there is a tie between a player being hung and abstains, the tie will go to the abstains? I think we've gone with mob-rule in the last few games, so I just want to make sure.
Is there Sheriffing this game, too?
Boomtown Rats? Mice without us who am I, I want to hear?
I kinda think that Dex may have slipped us a Dishonored theme game without telling us, but I can't be too sure since I still haven't played Dishonored. I just know that there's an attack that is essentially a Plague of Rats. Anywho, I abstain for now since there is really anything to go on yet other than Dino-dick's weird ramblings.
edit: *isn't anything to go on

Yeah, I just started playing Dishonored. I don't really know much about it aside from rats and blinking.

Let $B$ be a Banach space and $f : [0,+\infty)\times B \to B$ be a continuous function which is Lipschitz continuous in the second argument with Lipschitz constant $L$ (which does not depend on the first argument). By Picard-Lindelof, there is a unique function $x : [0,+\infty) \to B$ such that $x(0) = \mathbf{0}$ and for all $t\in [0,+\infty)$, $x'(t) = f(t,x(t))$. Define the family of functions $Euler_h : [0,+\infty) \to B$ to be the result of linear interpolation between the points obtained by the Euler method on $f$ with initial value $\mathbf{0}$ and step size $h$. Does it follow that $Euler_h$ converges compactly to the unique solution $x$ as $h$ goes to 0 from the right? If yes, is an explicit rate known?
The results I have found are only for the points provided by the Euler method, and not for the approximating functions obtained from them.

Accused killer out on bond
March 16, 2013
YORKVILLE — Just hours after a local man's body was returned to his family by representatives of the U.S....
If you bothered to read the complete article you would see that his name is given as Kristopher Klubert.

It certainly would have been nice if the reporter had included the _full name_ of the victim instead of just using his last name (Klubert) throughout the article. Sad for his family.
