I live in Davis, and I ride bikes simply for commuting around the university and around town. My last bike is a hand-me-down from my sister's friend over 6 years ago; it's pretty much on it's last leg. So my friend has offered to give me his relatively new mountain (?) bike from Walmart (high quality for Walmart standards). I must admit, I know next to nothing about bikes, and I really don't want to spend the time or money getting a different (road) bike. I just know this one isn't a road bike. Will it be sufficient, or should I look into something else?

The question of big box bike quality to one side, the question should be not whether it's "appropriate" to ride this bike, but whether you like it.
Are you physically comfortable riding the bike? If so, great! If not, there are several questions here about bike fit that may help you get comfortable on the bike. A bike that doesn't fit you will never be a good bike for you.
Is the new bike reliable and in good shape? Things to check: Do the brakes work reliably? Does the bike shift well? If not, bring it to a bike shop and have a mechanic look at it.
Mountain bikes are great at navigating potholes and are good city bikes because they accelerate quickly. (That last is great for when the traffic light turns green - zoom!) They're also easy to outfit for snow and ice.
If you're concerned with other cyclists' thoughts on what's "appropriate"... well, that's their problem and not yours at all. If you like the bike, I suggest you ride it and enjoy it.
The most common use for "mountain" bikes is city riding. Usually the Walmart variety are a bit overdone with shocks and the like (what the kids like to see), but probably better suited for city riding than actual off-road riding.
As stated, if the tires are exceptionally "knobby" you may want to replace them with smoother ones (though not "slicks"). Tire pressure should be adjusted to suit road conditions -- higher for smoother roads, but never so low that the tires "bottom out" going over bumps. (And, if you replace the tires, you may want to get Kevlar belted ones, for puncture resistance.)
And, also as stated, it's very important that the bike "fit" -- that it's not too large or small for you, that the seat and handlebars can be adjusted to your comfort, etc.
Depends on your standards for 'never being passed by another cyclist under any circumstances whatsoever'. This metric only matters to the competitive part of your ego and if your ego insists on being larger than the whole universe and is not fed by success in other areas of life then it matters quite a bit.
If you are able to push your body ruthlessly hard and able to finesse traffic situations to always be ahead then there is kudos to doing so on a sub-optimal bike.
However, there will be that guy on a carbon fibre road bike that will move out to pass you without even bothering to draft you for what you are worth. He (or sometimes a she) will then vanish into the distance seemingly effortlessly whilst you fall apart with a stitch, torn muscles, sweaty cotton clothing and jumping gears, obviously to curse your heavy mountain bike with its stupid tyres, total lack of really big gears and the world's most unaerodynamic riding position. Naturally it will be the bike that is at fault during this moment, not your hedonistic lifestyle. You won't even think beyond envy about the guy that passed you. If you ever did find out what he thought of leaving you for dust then he would not let on to noticing you any more than any of the motorists did. That will be because he saw you ahead, did the necessary to pass you and then put a bit of a sprint on so you would not draft him.
In the pecking order of bikes, if you own a tricked out road bike then you have to pass everyone else that bothers to use the roads the pedal powered way. If you ride a heavy bike then you can let it go when someone that trains every day, carries not so much as a D-lock and rides a carbon bike passes you. And speed matters, that is why you ride instead of drive, right? So therefore, on balance, it is better to pass almost everything on a heavy MTB than to be on a posh road bike and not pass absolutely everything. So it sounds like you have the right bike.
As a few contributors have noted, it's all about the tyres, innit. Perhaps more important than tyre choice is tyre pressure. If you get a track pump and keep them rock hard, e.g. 10% above the pressure recommended on the sidewall, you will thunder along, floating on air so much faster than everyone else (except the guy on the carbon fibre road bike that also relies on high pressure tyres for his speed). You might as well wear out the tyres that are on there, but, when you do change them, get the legendary Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres. With these you can participate in the stupid game of deliberately going over broken glass, to obviously not have to worry about a puncture any more than a tank driver has to worry about hitting a traffic cone.
Much like a tank, an MTB is a finely tuned, well oiled machine that can survive a lot of abuse. Take your friend's offer up on the bike, sort it out mechanically, get the fit 'n' comfort right for you and, as Neil says, enjoy it.
As for this 'I only ride to commute' attitude, that is far too sensible and in no way all of it. Your ride has got to be the highlight of your day, the endorphin rush that your body is physically addicted to. If you are not getting lost trying out new routes and learning the intricacies of your neighbourhood then you are not trying hard enough. Learn and master the streets and alleyways in a way that the guy on the posh road bike never would or could. Ideally you want to be always able to get from A to B quick 'n' fast on the roads or the more stimulating way on the car-free routes that exist everywhere. For this the bike you have coming your way sounds ideal.

How to add series to chart
I need to add series to chart at the runtime.
I know how to do it in constructor but I need to create a chart and the add series to them. I didn't find a method like addSeries . Please, anybody knows what method do I need?

It is probably best to remove the chart and add a new chart configured the way you want.Mitchell Simoens @LikelyMitch

I'm going to agree with both the OP and with Mitchell. An "addSeries" method would be nice (maybe this should be a feature request). But in the meantime, I've used the solution suggested by Mitchell: removed the chart and added back re-configured as needed.
3 Aug 2012 12:13 AM #4
You could also do "chart.series.add()", followed by "chart.refresh()" - I've used that before for adding new series to charts. E.g.
chart.series.add({ type: 'line', axis: 'left', xField: 'name', yField: 'data4' }); chart.refresh();Daniel Gallo

Since Ext.chart.series extends from Ext.Base and not Ext.container.Container it didn't strike me I could call add()
10 Aug 2012 8:10 PM #6
agreed that it is a bit hidden
take a look at:
-> initComponent
series = me.series; me.series = Ext.create('Ext.util.MixedCollection', false, function(a) { return a.seriesId || (a.seriesId = Ext.id(null, 'ext-chart-series-')); }); if (series) { me.series.addAll(series); }

What are in your opinion some good propositional and first order logic textbooks (undergraduate level) ? I need one that focuses mainly on the aspects of logic related to computer science. thanks in advance.
My favorite introductory book on mathematical logic is Robert S.Wolfe's A TOUR THROUGH MATHEMATICAL LOGIC.Amazingly well written,it covers an extraordinary amount of material in both logic and set theory,complete with biographical vignettes and historical insights.There a deep discussion of first order logic and it's place in metamathematical systems.It also has a wonderful introductory chapter on the theory of computation and it's origins.This is the book I would recommend to any of my students if they asked me about logic.
After that,there are several more advanced texts that I like,particularly the ones by Shoenfield and the classic by my old teacher,Elliot Mendelson.
You can't go wrong with any of those.
The question as currently stated is a little vague, but I took a course on logic and theorem proving as it relates to computer science as an undergraduate, and the textbook, Huth and Ryan's "Logic in Computer Science" (which I see now has a second edition) was a reasonable textbook.
For a somewhat different value of "aspects of logic related to computer science," Pfenning's notes on from his undergraduate course on Constructive Logic are relatively complete and might be useful.
A first course in logic by S. Hedman (OUP) is excellent.
I'm suprised that no one has yet mentioned Boolos 'Computability and Logic'. The first 100 pages are pretty solid computability theoyr, and then follows Meta-logic, with an especially good précis on first-order logic that emphasizes the difference between a Language, an theory, and logical/non-logical symbols. Worth a gander, espeically if you're interested in CS related logic.
Robert Sores 'Recursively Enumerable Sets and Degrees' is another good place to start for recursion theory, as well as general logic. His approach is very clear (if a little assuming that you're following everything at once) and the first 120pp are very informative on recursively enumerable sets (now usually called computably enumerable). But for undergraduates, I'd go with the Boolos...
Note of warning - Mendelson's book Introduction to Mathematical Logic I found confusing when starting out - this was confirmed by supervisors/colleagues.
I hope this helps!
It depends on what you mean by "related to computer science". Undergraduate computer science "logic" books tend to focus more on computability, like
Undergraduate mathematical "logic" books tend to focus on propositional logic and first-order logic but not things like computational complexity. One well-regarded book of that sort is
That book does prove the unique readability (parsing) algorithm for propositional and first-order formulas.
As a clear introduction to propositional and first order logic for the mathematically minded, I think Logic and Structure by Van Dalen is in a class of its own. The majority of the book is not particularly CS focused, but the beginnings of recursion theory are covered in the last chapter.
A very clear (and free) introductory textbook is A Problem Course in Mathematical Logic - "a freeware mathematics text by Stefan Bilaniuk" available as pdf, ps and Latex source on http://euclid.trentu.ca/math/sb/pcml/pcml.html:
Not quite a textbook, but a collection of historical projects about elementary logic and related issues in discrete mathematics and computer science can be found at www.cs.nmsu.edu/historical-projects Click on the project "Deduction Through the Ages ..."
Though a little advanced, Logic for Applications by Nerode and Shore fits the bill. (Google books) The book has an extensive treatment of propositional and first-order logic, with an emphasis on resolution as a proof method. Hilbert style systems are also discussed to some length, but natural deduction is lacking. I found that the Prolog related parts can be successfully skipped if necessary.
I don't understand what people usually mean when they say "aspects of some mathematical field related to computer science" (how they know what is really related to CS?), but if you really want to study or teach first order logic, then, in my opinion, there is old but still the best book for that -- Joseph Shoenfield's Mathematical logic.
For a discussion of logic textbooks, highly recommended:

I was recently trying to learn a little bit about group cohomology, but one point has been confusing me. According to wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_cohomology and some other sources on the internet), given a (topological) group $G$, we have that the group cohomology $H^n(G)$ is the same as the singular cohomology $H^n(BG)$ (with coefficients in a trivial $G$-module $M$). Moreover, it says that given any group $G$, if we don't care about its topology, we can always give it the discrete topology and look at the cohomology of $K(G,1)$. This seems to suggest that when $G$ has topology that we do care about, we can just look at $BG$ with whatever topology $G$ is supposed to have. The relevant citation in this section is a reference to a book called Cohomology of Finite Groups, but I was wondering if this result would work with groups such as $U(1)$ which are not finite? Moreover, it would seem then that there is some sort of natural way to define group cohomology to detect the topology of the group; for example maybe look at continuous $G$-modules and continuous cochains. However, I heard that when doing this, one has to be careful because in general, the category of continuous $G$-modules might not have enough injectives. Also, I found this article by Stasheff (http://projecteuclid.org/DPubS/Repository/1.0/Disseminate?view=body&id=pdf_1&handle=euclid.bams/1183540920) which seems to suggest that for continuous cohomology, the we might not have the equality $H^n(BG)=H^n(G)$ between singular and group cohomology. I was wondering if someone could explain these connections to me (including what "continuous cohomology" is) and/or clarify what is happening? It would also be great if someone could tell me how one might compute something like $H^n(U(1);M)$ where $U(1)$ carries the discrete topology. Thanks.
Short answer: you don't want to consider group cohomology as defined for finite groups for Lie groups like $U(1)$, or indeed topological groups in general. There are other cohomology theories (not Stasheff's) that are the 'right' cohomology groups, in that there are the right isomorphisms in low dimensions with various other things.
Long answer:
Group cohology, as one comes across it in e.g. Ken Brown's book (or see these notes), is all about discrete groups. The definition of group cocycles in $H^n(G,A)$, for $A$ and abelian group, can be seen to be the same as maps of simplicial sets $N\mathbf{B}G \to \mathbf{K}(A,n)$, where $\mathbf{B}G$ is the groupoid with one object and arrow set $G$, $N$ denotes its nerve and $\mathbf{K}(A,n)$ is the simplicial set corresponding (under the Dold-Kan correspondence) to the chain complex $\ldots \to 1 \to A \to 1 \to \ldots$, where $A$ is in position $n$, and all other groups are trivial. Coboundaries between cocycles are just homotopies between maps of simplicial spaces.
The relation between $N\mathbf{B}G$ and $K(G,1)$ is that the latter is the geometric realisation of the former, and the geometric realisation of $\mathbf{K}(A,n)$ is an Eilenberg-MacLane space $K(A,n)$, which represents ordinary cohomology ($H^n(X,A) \simeq [X,K(A,n)]$, where $[-,-]$ denotes homotopy classes of maps). This boils down to the fact that simplicial sets and topological spaces encode the same homotopical information. It helps that $N\mathbf{B}G$ is a Kan complex, and so the naive homotopy classes are the right homotopy classes, and so we have
$$sSet(N\mathbf{B}G,\mathbf{K}(A,n))/homotopy \simeq Top(BG,K(A,n))/homotopy = [BG,K(A,n)]$$
In fact this isomorphism is a homotopy equivalence of the full hom-spaces, not just up to homotopy.
If we write down the same definition of cocycles with a topological group $G$, then this gives the 'wrong' cohomology. In particular, we should have the interpretation of $H^2(G,A)$ as isomorphic to the set of (equivalence classes of) extensions of $G$ by $A$, as for discrete groups. However, we only get semi-direct products of topological groups this way, whereas there are extensions of topological groups which are not semi-direct products - they are non-trivial principal bundles as well as being group extensions. Consider for example $\mathbb{Z}/2 \to SU(2) \to SO(3)$.
The reason for this is that when dealing with maps between simplicial spaces, as $N\mathbf{B}G$ and $\mathbf{K}(A,n)$ become when dealing with topological groups, it is not enough to just consider maps of simplicial spaces; one must localise the category of simplicial spaces, that is add formal inverses of certain maps. This is because ordinary maps of simplicial spaces are not enough to calculate the space of maps as before. We still have $BG$ as the geometric realisation of the nerve of $\mathbf{B}G$, and so one definition of the cohomology of the topological group $G$ with values in the discrete group $A$ is to consider the ordinary cohomology $H^n(BG,A) = [BG,K(A,n)]$.
However, if $A$ is also a non-discrete topological group, this is not really enough, because to define cohomology of a space with values in a non-discrete group, you should be looking at sheaf cohomology, where the values are taken in the sheaf of groups associated to $A$. For discrete groups $A$ this gives the same result as cohomology defined in the 'usual way' (say by using Eilenberg-MacLane spaces).
So the story is a little more complicated than you supposed. The 'proper ' way to define cohomology for topological groups, with values in an abelian topological group (at least with some mild niceness assumptions on our groups) was given by Segal in
and later rediscovered by Brylinski (it is difficult to find a copy of Segal's article) in the context of Lie groups in this article.
Most of the time, $H^n(G)$ means $H^n(BG)$ with the discrete topology, and topologists tend to write $K(G,1)$ rather than $BG$ to emphasize that $G$ is considered as a discrete group. This is because when $G$ comes with a natural topology then $BG$ is typically assumed to take the topology into account, specifically there is a fibration with base $BG$, contractible total space, and fiber $G$ with its given topology, and this specifies $BG$ up to homotopy type.
One way to study $K(U(1),1)$, is to observe that there is a short exact sequence of (discrete) groups $0\to Z\to R\to U(1)\to 0$.
Continuous cohomology is more involved, taking the topology into account, and is often defined by simplicial methods.
Continuous cohomology of a topological group G used to mean using the usual chain complex of multivaraible functions F:G^n \to A with the usual coboundary except that f is required to be continuous. in the smooth case, continuous or smooth gives the same cohomology. In the Lie case, van Est established very nice relations between this cohomology, the Lie algebra cohomology and the purely topological cohomology of the underlying space G

A group of us are travelling to China this year. One of the members of our group was convicted five years ago for possession of Ecstasy; as it has been five years, the conviction is now spent / expired. Will this expired conviction affect our chances of getting a visa?
Asked a friend about this one who applied years ago. He was denied even though his conviction was spent. It might be based on the severity of his conviction, but I cannot attest to that.
The best advice I was given was go to Hong Kong and apply for a Chinese visa there. According to sources (other travelers, nothing written), you are more likely to get one there. If you don't want to go all the way to Hong Kong to try (which is understandable), apply and see if he gets one.
To the best of my understanding the "expired" conviction is only relevant when is dealt with within the UK.
From the act:
The implication of this means that when someone does a background check on you the conviction will come up. However, unless it is specifically excluded by law it cannot be used against you by anyone who's subject to the UK law and this act. The thing is Chinese are not subject to UK law when reviewing your visa application to enter China.
I'm not going to advise anybody to start lying on their visa applications... but it's worth remembering that, unless you're on the Interpol watch list or something, the Chinese Embassy is not going to have access to UK criminal records.

My new Nintendo DSi XL arrived with a 4.3V US wall charger. Soon, we will be on a vacation abroad and I need a solution for charging it where the outlet voltage is 220V. Before trying the USB port of my laptop, I wanted to make sure that it is safe to do so, provided the lower voltage of the native charger.
From personal experience, I can say that no harm has come to my DSi by charging it using an appropriate USB cable (like the one seen in the link supplied by Blake).
I've been doing this for over a year, so I'm fairly certain there are no adverse effects.
Go to a travel store and buy an adapter/voltage changer, i forget what they're called, ask an employee.
We live in NZ which only has 220-240v and we bought our 25th Anniversary DSiXL online with a USB cable, which works very well.
The good thing about charging via the PC is that the PC adapter protects the unit from both the voltage variables and the cycles or Hz variables which can often damage wall chargers when coupled with voltage/travel adapters.
Make sure if you are planning on using a voltage travel adapter that it is also capable of the different cycles/Hz ratings too.

The 35 Most Insane Halloween Costumes from Around the World
Kicking off our last cluster of rest-of-the-world-ers, this British costume represents a pretty fundamental misunderstanding of either the Rudolph mythos, or the basic anatomy of reindeer.
Shiver. From the part of Russia still using wood etchings for mass communication--there's actually a whole series of these, all featuring cherubic little boys outfitted in frilly costumes and longing pouty facial expressions. We went with this one because, in addition to the creepiness, we like the diagram of the important features of a carrot.
"Hey lady. I'm near-impotent and like to hide in the corner. Wanna fuck?"
For the winner in the not-Japan category, we have Germany at its absolute best. First of all, this is the creepiest lighting ever. It looks like a kangaroo prostitute standing under a lamp post on a deserted street, wondering how life slipped away from her. And why is her baby red? Is it still coated in afterbirth? Is this actually some non-marsupial in the midst of a C-Section? Fuck you Germany for making us ask these questions.
And yes, Japan topped that shit 11 times. Hold on to your butts.
We don't know what it is, we don't know why the wings disappeared when it landed on the cat's head, and we don't know where the probe is. All we do know is that we haven't been able to sleep since we saw these pictures.
The humor value of this Hello Kitty costume is directly proportional to how raspy and gruff the wearer's voice is. If you've got a bad cold or have spent years of your life at sea, putting this on and announcing to the room that you weigh the same as three apples will probably kill someone from laughter.
In Japan there's a huge problem with these guys sneaking into beach resorts and waiting for unsuspecting sunbathers to seek shelter from the sun.
The lack of leg holes, or room for anything south of the thigh, suggest this is probably the only haunted condom costume made for hovering double amputees in the world.
It's because of costumes like this that we here at Cracked finally changed our "sticking our dick in mailboxes" policy.
This robot is programmed for loving and is fully equipped to take it by force.
If you're kind of shy, this is the costume for you, because the less you say, the more hilarious it is. If you can wear this to a party, stand in the corner and say nothing the whole night, people will talk about you for years.
Awesome. If there's any adventurous girls reading this, here's an idea for this Halloween: turn this costume around, put it on, and see how many people get it. Now imagine trying to explain it to your children years from now, when a picture of it turns up on The Facebook of Tomorrow.
In Japan, they don't really understand how sideburns work.
It's stuff like this where Japan really demonstrates their dominance in the "fucking insanity" arena. The best western scientists working with the smartest robots could work for years and not come up with something like this.
Best costume of the year folks. We love the speedometer on this. Great for keeping it under control, and for measuring your progress.

(December 5, 2012)--A phishing scam is targeting businesses across the country by pretending to be the Better Business Bureau.
The BBB says official-looking emails claim that a complaint has been registered against your business and then directs you to download and complete a form that is attached.
The scam artist could also provide a link that is supposed to make the form look like it is available to view.
The BBB says the "attached form" is actually an executable file that will put a virus on your computer system. After the virus is downloaded, a message pops up offering to clean the viruses off of the computer for a small fee.
Scammers can then steal your money if your payment information is entered.
According to the BBB, not only are the links in the e-mail dangerous but the malware as well, since it routes your browser to a website where new malware is dropped.
The malware is written is such a way that it usually passes by anti-virus software undetected, the BBB said.
To protect yourself and your business the BBB says recipients of any e-mails that appear to come from the organization should always check with their local office to confirm the legitimacy of the email and not feel pressured by response deadlines.
A sample of the email and an official link to the nearest BBB office can be found on their website.

A Day in America According to a (Baffled) Foreigner
6:45 PM: Perplexed by prices
I arrive at the till with my Hungry Man, trying not to look at the obvious misprint that follows the word "calories" on the box. The price sticker says $3.50, which is causing me some trouble because I'm not actually sure how much money I have. There are plenty of coins in my pocket, but some of them say "Dime" on them and don't say anything else. I'm going to assume they are five cent pieces because they're the smallest, although Christ knows British currency is no yardstick for this. I should just be glad I'm in a country that uses the decimal system: Until 1971, Britain's currency was base-16 and the principal unit was the Goat.
Regardless, I have what I think is exactly $3.50, and with relief, I see that the lady has recovered from her mid-shop crotch explosion and is now ready to serve me, so I give her the Hungry Man and then groan with exhausted exasperation as I see $3.80 appear on the screen. There is no longer any logic to my persecution. At this point, I have to assume that the entire world simply hates me.
It will later be explained to me that no one actually includes sales tax in their price tags, and I will then explain that this is flamingly retarded like everything else in this stupid country, and it will finally be explained that in conclusion I am an asshole who probably wants to sleep on the couch tonight.
6:50 PM: Confused by a credit conundrum
But right now, all I want is my goddamned Hungry Man. As a last resort, I give Mrs. McClimax my credit card and stand back waiting for the next thing to go wrong, which it does with remarkable speed. "Crebid O'Debbid," she mumbles, lips rubbery from the afterglow.
"I... uh... beg your pardon?" I ask.
"Credible Debbie," she responds.
I am now in serious trouble. As an English person, I cannot ask someone to repeat something more than once, because that would be embarrassing myself and causing a fuss. My only option is to do a slow half-nod, but for god's sake not to look as if I'm actually saying "yes" to anything. So I try this. I tilt my head up noncommittally and pray she will show mercy.
She does not. "CREDIT," she blares, staring at me in a way that makes me want to crawl back inside my mother, "OR DEBIT."
No one likes their toast done on one side, Sting. No one. Also, this is the last Sting picture in this article.
Now I understand why this made no sense to me. No one ever asks you that in England. Your credit card does not have the potential to magically change into a debit card when out of view. It is either one or the other. You do not have to wrestle with a quantum paradox every time you purchase some crisps, and I don't believe I will ever understand why this has to be different in America.
With the flippancy of total incomprehension, I tell the lady that my credit card is a credit card, and then I ask her if she needs any further elucidation on this point. The rest of the transaction proceeds in stony silence, but I don't care. I've got my Hungry Man, and the day is over. I am going home.
7:30 PM: Attempting conversation with one's American wife
But even after the Hungry Man palpitations have subsided and I'm fairly sure my arteries aren't going to snake out of my body and strangle my brain, the pain still isn't over, because I'm not allowed to go to bed without getting laughed at for a good hour-and-a-half first.
Conversation with my wife often ends with fits of hilarity on her part; hilarity which will ultimately result in her brutal murder and distribution to the various local dogs whom she adores so much. The reason, you see, is that all my English idioms are just so blooming cute that they make her crack up whenever I'm attempting a serious conversation. This would be fine, provided I was able to laugh back in her face with equal force. The problem is that I can't. And here's why:
English people have been reared on Americana since the day they were born. I spent my toddling years watching Sesame Street, and when I reached the appropriate age of maturity (seven-years old) my sister introduced me to Aliens and Nightmare On Elm Street. As I stumbled through the rest of my "childhood," hollow-eyed and weird, I already understood American slang, and I knew who was a cultural icon in America and who wasn't. We all did.
But it doesn't work both ways. Aside from the slang barrier, Americans have absolutely no idea about English celebrities. Not unless they're That Guy From Love Actually, or they've starred in an English sitcom funny enough for it to be remade with completely different cast, characters, story and overarching ambiance. This is understandable, since most English celebrities are really ugly, but it does make our conversations somewhat lopsided.
I mean, LOOK at the fucker.
In an ironic reversal, I now feel like that lover who has noted down all of his partner's tastes and phobias, knows what her friends do for a living and can talk with eloquent comprehension about every aspect of her life, but he never gets the chance because his lover doesn't actually know they're going out, or even that he exists. England is basically the pathetic stalky "friend" of America who will one day snap, threaten America with a knife and end up getting buggered in jail by a swarthy continent sporting a teardrop tattoo.
12:00 AM: To sleep, perchance to write a pithy and moving conclusion to this article
And so another day ends in this totally normal, totally bewildering country. There's an old saying that Britain and America are countries divided by a common language; but in reality, they're divided by everything humanly possible, and the pettiness of the divisions don't make them feel any less alien.
My wife is indifferent towards you, Sting. But I hate you so much. I just wanted you to know.
Still, as I pull up my all-American comforter, wondering why in Christ we couldn't just buy a duvet (in England, duvets are ten-a-penny, much like the fabled mechanokettle) it occurs to me to wake my wife up and tell her that no country is right, and no country is wrong; we are simply different, and it's our differences that make us strong.
And later, as I stare blearily at the clock from my position on the living-room couch, it also occurs to me that I can pass the night by buying some whiskey from the 24-hour drive-thru liquor store and then firing a gun right outside my bedroom window. I think I'm going to like it here after all.

Subject: Re: [OMPI devel] Indirect calls to wait* and test*
From: Aurelien Bouteiller (bouteill_at_[hidden])
Date: 2007-11-29 18:37:36
This patch introduces customisable wait/test for requests as discussed
at the face-to-face ompi meeting in Paris.
A new global structure (ompi_request_functions) holding all the
pointers to the wait/test functions have been added.
ompi_request_wait* and ompi_request_test* have been #defined to be
replaced by ompi_request_functions.req_wait. The default
implementations of the wait/test functions names have been changed
from ompi_request_% to ompi_request_default_%. Those functions are
static initializer of the ompi_request_functions structure.
To modify the defaults, a components 1) copy the
ompi_request_functions structure (the type ompi_request_fns_t can be
used to declare a suitable variable), 2) change some of the functions
according to its needs. This is best done at MPI_init time when there
is no threads. Should this component be unloaded it have to restore
the defaults. The ompi_request_default_* functions should never be
called directly anywhere in the code. If a component needs to access
the previously defined implementation of wait, it should call its
local copy of the function. Component implementors should keep in mind
that another component might have already changed the defaults and
needs to be called.
Performance impact on NetPipe -a (async recv mode) does not show
measurable overhead. Here follows the "diff -y" between original and
modified ompi assembly code from ompi/mpi/c/wait.c. The only
significant difference is an extra movl to load the address of the
ompi_request_functions structure in eax. This obviously explains why
there is no measurable cost on latency.
movl L_ompi_request_null$non_lazy_ptr-"L00000000001$pb"(%ebx),
%eax movl L_ompi_request_null
$non_lazy_ptr-"L00000000001$pb"(%ebx), %eax
cmpl %eax, (%edi) cmpl %eax, (%edi)
je L18 je L18
> movl L_ompi_request_functions
$non_lazy_ptr-"L00000000001$pb"(%ebx), %eax
movl %esi, 4(%esp) movl %esi, 4(%esp)
movl %edi, (%esp) movl %edi, (%esp)
call L_ompi_request_wait$stub | call *16(%eax)
Here is the patch for those who want to try themselves.
If I receive comments outlining the need, thread safe accessors could
be added to allow components to change the functions at anytime during
execution and not only during MPI_Init/Finalize. Please make noise if
you find this useful.
If comments does not suggest extra work, I expect this code to be
committed in trunk next week.

"Box" in English can be translated into Spanish as caja, cajón, or estuche. What exactly is the difference between these three words? What types of boxes are translated as each? Which would best describe a shipping box used for sending something in the mail?

The most common one, at least in Spain, is "caja".
"Cajón", though it is defined as "caja" by the Real Academia Dictionary, refers usually to big, sturdy boxes. Like made of wood, instead of cardboard. But in Spain, "cajón" is usually used in its "drawer" meaning.
And "estuche" generally refers to small boxes, for storing pens, jewels, etc. In some cases it used for bigger things. For example, music instruments, like guitars, are kept in "estuches". But those are quite specific cases.
So, summarizing, and generalizing:
For the shipping box, I would say "caja". And, when in doubt, use "caja grande", "caja pequeña", "cajita" ...

Imagine we take a cuboid with sides $a, b$ and $c$ and throw it like a usual die. Is there a way to determine the probabilities of the different outcomes $P_{ab}, P_{bc}$ and $P_{ac}$? With $ab$, $bc$, $ac$ I label the three distinct faces of the die (let us not distinguish between the two opposide sides).
I would guess that the probabilities can not be calculated solely by the weights of the different areas (something like $P^\text{try}_{ab}=ab/(ab+bc+ac)$).
I believe this is a complicated physical problem which can in principle depend on a lot of factors like friction of air and the table, the material of the die, etc. However, I would like to simplify it as much as possible and assume we can calculate the probabilities just by knowing the lengths of the different sides.
For a start, let us assume that two sides $b=c$ are equal (that is, we only have two events $ab$ and $bb$). Now with dimensional analysis we know that the probabilities $P_{ab}$ and $P_{bb}$ can only be functions of the ratio $\rho=a/b$. We also have $P_{ab}(\rho)+P_{bb}(\rho)=1$ and we know, for example, that (i) $P_{ab}(0)=0$, (ii) $P_{ab}(1)=2/3$ and (iii) $P_{ab}(\rho\rightarrow\infty)=1$.
My question is: is there a way to determine $P_{ab}(\rho)$?
Bonus: Since I am too lazy to perform the experiment, would there be a way to run this through some 3D rigid-body physics simulation and determine the probabilities by using a huge number of throws (of course this is doomed to fail for extreme values of $\rho$)?
Remark: Actually, the function $P^\text{try}$ given above fulfills all three properties (i)-(iii). For $b=c$ we have
(the additional factor of 2 comes from the fact, that we have four sides $ab$ instead of two like in the asymmetric die above)

I'm trying to change the shocks on my 1993 Acura Integra, but I just can't seem to loosen the self-locking nut from the bolt that connects the lower part of the shock to the knuckle. I tried Liquid Wrench and that doesn't seem to do a think, I also tried an impact screwdriver (the kind you hit with a hammer) but nothing seems to make a difference. I'm thinking that the impact didn't work because the way my suspension is mounted allows the whole nut/bolt/shock assembly to twist together a few degrees, but I'm not sure that's a factor. Is there a trick to removing these nuts or should I just go and buy/borrow a beefy impact wrench?

I remember having issues like these about 5 years ago, and we ended up having to grip the screw/stud that was sticking out while turning the nut. Does the bolt have a flat piece that you can maybe get a wrench on? Try this if possible. Another option, assuming you are replacing them, vice grip the polished rod with some beefy vice grips and removed the nut. This will damage the polished rod, so only do this if changing the whole assembly.
I got the nut off. Out of sheer frustration combined with late night stupidity I put the longest cheater bar on it and jacked up the end of the bar using a hydraulic jack. Surprisingly, it worked even though I was turning it in the wrong direction (that's the reason I hadn't tried that sooner). The nut un-seized and I was able to remove it relatively easily afterward. I guess brute force was the way after all.

Pizza sauce and spaghetti sauce are both tomato-based, have roughly the same seasoning (Italian) and look a like. However, I (and a friendly user here) think there is a difference between the two. So what is it? Or isn't there one and you can interchange the two without a weird feeling or taste?
Red pizza sauce is often (but not always) two things:
When you ask about "pizza sauce" I'll have to assume you mean the tomato-based sauce that became the norm for just about all pizzas in North America since about 1955 when we crawled out of our meat & potato caves and started to try new things. (Thank you E.D. & J.C.)
The reality is that there really isn't a "pizza" sauce. There is pizza and whatever the toppings are of your choice. Example: Basil pesto, bechemal, tapenade, olive oil, heavy cream and tomato sauce used for bases to name only a few.
However, for the tomato-based pizza lovers out there here's a FYI...
Restaurants don't have a pizza sauce and a pasta sauce...they have a single tomato sauce used like you would use a stock - as a base to build from for other items.
What is the norm for most restaurants is a traditional house-made tomato sauce. Tinned plum tomatoes(tinned are actually better than fresh), onion, garlic, oregano, basil, sugar and whatever secret item the chef uses, cooked for anywhere from 30 minutes to 4 hours until the desired consistency is found. Typically it will be blended to make it smooth and easier to use in other dishes or as a possible base for pizza if required.
The pizza dude down the street is probably using canned Ragu or Hunt's tomato sauce for everything he makes.
The difference in the flavours: texture will be a function of what has been added to the dish and the cooking time/method. You'll see reduction in the sauce of a pan-made-pasta-sauce and evaporation/caramelization happen with the sauce on a pizza. Both yield a difference in flavour and texture that will make you think they are two different sauces...which they are once you've added things to them, but both have started from the same batch of cooked tinned tomatoes.
And so the veil has been lifted...
Tomato suace in a pizza parlour is typically prepared uncooked. Since pizza ovens can reach temps in excess of 800 °F (430 °C), the sauce cooks on the pizza. Precooking sauce can "overcook" in the pizza oven.
Also, traditional Neapolitan pizza philosophy is "less is more", so the sauce tends to be very basic with a few to no ingredients added. I add oregano, salt and pepper to a can of crushed tomatoes (although lately I omit the salt for my hypertension). I've even steered away from oregano as it can turn the sauce bitter if not used within a day or two. I'll substitute with parsely. When I make a Pizza Margherita I don't add anything to the sauce. I simply sprinkle fresh basil over top of the pizza with fresh mozzarella. Sometimes I don't use sauce at all: just thinly sliced tomatos. That's the beauty of pizza: no rules!!!
Here's my Paulanardi Pizza Sauce Recipe:
I make my pizza sauce thicker than spaghetti sauce, nearly canned tomato puree consistency. If your pizza sauce too thin, you end up with a soggy crust.
Both are just a reduction of fresh tomatoes over a a period of time (30 mins to 4 hours or more). Simple flavours may or may not added during cooking, or at the end of cooking
Pizza sauce is intended for smearing onto the uncooked pizza base, and must have a consistency suitable for doing this
Pasta sauce is intended for being soaked into some nearly cooked pasta so it infuses and coats the pasta, usually just before serving
I am about to make a pizza as soon as the dough rises in fact... using a store bought spaghetti sauce this time, as I'm tired... and hungry. I usually reduce the sauce on low simmer after adding a little Red Wine Vinegar to taste... That's usually all I add unless I'm making my own sauce.
From the perspective of a person that understands Italian cooking or just cooking in general, sauce used on pizza and pasta is diverse. More or less any sauce you use on one could be used on the other with a few modifications depending on the other attributes of the dish.
From the perspective of American consumer marketing the answer is a lot more black and white: The red stuff in the jar labeled as "spaghetti sauce" is typically thinner and sweeter with more basil, perhaps with pieces of other vegetables, mushrooms, or ground meat floating in it. The stuff in the jar labeled "pizza sauce" is generally thicker and less sweet with more oregano and doesn't have chunks of other things in it. Both are tomato based, but with different flavors and consistencies to match the average Joe's perception of what the sauce should be like.
I make a lot of homemade pizza and adding extra oregano, garlic and olive oil to the sauce helps it not to taste like spaghetti.
I have been wondering for YEARS what the distinctive flavor is that I have experienced only in pizza sauce (not all, but some over the years). After researching the net, I think the ingredient is fennel. While some may use this in spaghetti sauce, the spice isn't typically mentioned in recipes.
Wikipedia answered a lot of this from what I can tell above. but hontestly pizza sauce is thicker with more garlic and parm cheese. That's it! you can get scientific about pizza but pizza is taste not science. just like beer to an extent

HILLSDALE — The newest addition to the Charger coaching staff is former quarterback Brad Otterbein, who joins his father and older brother on the staff. Brad takes the place of Dan Mettlach, who served in the same role from February 2011 until recently.
Otterbein played for Hillsdale from 2006-10 as a quarterback. His most memorable moment on the field took place in 2006, when he led Hillsdale to a come-from-behind 14-12 win over the University of Indianapolis on Homecoming.
Since his graduation from Hillsdale, Otterbein has served for two seasons with the University of Indianapolis football program, from March 2011 through June 2012. He coached the Greyhounds' tight ends and H-backs in the 2011 season, and guided the running backs for the team's spring session in 2012. He also helped out with special teams and ran the defensive scout teams in practice every day. He also acquired knowledge of game film and has experience with several different video editing systems.
He earned his degree in marketing management from Hillsdale.

In an exam today about mathematical methods of physics, we were asked to prove the following statement:
Let $V$ be a complex finite dimensional inner product space. Let $A: V \to V$ be a strictly positive definite linear map. Show that there exists a unique strictly positive definite linear map $B: V \to V$ such that $e^B = A$.
(I'm not 100% sure about the exact statement, but this should be it)
Note that in our course, positive definite or strictly positive definite also means that the map must be self-adjoint (since non-real eigenvalues can't be "positive" or "not positive"). I wanted to prove the statement using the spectral theorem, however, when I got to the part to show that $B$ is strictly positive definite too, I ran into a problem.
Let $A = \mathrm{Id}_V$ denote the identity. $A$ is self-adjoint and strictly positive definite, however, I think that the only map $B$ satisfying $e^B = A$ would be the zero map, which clearly is not a strictly positive definite map. For $V = \mathbb{C}$, the statement claims that there exists a strictly positive real number $x$ such that $e^x = 1$, which cannot be true.
Question: Did I go wrong with my reasoning at some point or is the claim that $B$ is strictly positive definite too strong? I tried proving this taking the logarithm of the eigenvalues of $A$ which can also be a negative number.
Thanks in advance for any clarification.

SPOTLIGHT ON:(Back to Menu)
Centennial History Describes Distinctive Mission & Impact of Rutgers Law School
The results of what began as a suggestion by Professor Paul L. Tractenberg about how to commemorate the first 100 years of Rutgers School of Law–Newark have been captured in A Centennial History of Rutgers Law School in Newark: Opening a Thousand Doors (The History Press, 2010). Writing with affection and candor informed by his four decades on the faculty, Tractenberg sketches the school's crises, transformations and triumphs from its opening in 1908 as the New Jersey Law School through the present day. Many of the conclusions he draws about the achievements of the past century and the challenges that lay ahead will likely be of interest to others with a stake in the future of public legal education.
The seminar, together with two major programs on which his students collaborated and which featured faculty and alumni, underscored Rutgers Law School's significant role in the development of legal doctrine, its introduction of clinical legal education and other curricular innovations, and its deep and successful commitment to racial, ethnic, gender, and socioeconomic diversity within the profession.
The book, says Elizabeth Warren '76, Leo Gottlieb Professor of Law at Harvard Law School, "is a lively chronicle and thoughtful social history. What happens to Rutgers Law is an important question for all of us who love the People's Electric Law School," as it was known by many when Warren was a student, "and an equally important question for everyone who thinks seriously about the future of education in reshaping both lawyers and laws." The book's subtitle, Opening a Thousand Doors, is taken from an interview Warren, chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel for the $700 billion of TARP funding, gave to the Star-Ledger (June 21, 2009) in which she expressed her appreciation to Rutgers Law School which "took a poor kid from Oklahoma and kicked open a thousand doors for me."
"This is a lively chronicle and thoughtful social history, but most of all, it is a great mystery whose next chapter is still in draft. What happens to Rutgers Law is an important question for all of us who love the People's Electric Law School — and an equally important question for everyone who thinks seriously about the future of education in reshaping both lawyers and laws."
In his foreword, Dean John J. Farmer, Jr. praises Tractenberg and his students for successfully capturing the distinctive nature of Rutgers Law School. "To read this book," he writes, "is to understand the special place that Rutgers Law has occupied in New Jersey's social, political and legal history. From the school's earliest days, affording a largely immigrant population the opportunity for a legal education, through its recommitment to Newark in the wake of the riots of the 1960s and its pioneering of clinical legal education and opportunity for disadvantaged students, to the present day, Rutgers School of Law–Newark has upheld three principles: opportunity, excellence and impact. This book portrays in human terms the school's commitment to those ideals and makes a persuasive case for the uniqueness of Rutgers Law's historic mission."
Professor Tractenberg earned his B.A. from Wesleyan and his J.D. from the University of Michigan. A member of the Rutgers faculty since 1970, he is the author of numerous publications on education law; a frequent lecturer; and consultant and adviser to many national, regional, and state organizations and agencies. In 1973, he established the Education Law Center, a public interest law project, and served as its director for three years. He is involved in several landmark constitutional cases about public education, especially Abbott v. Burke. In 2000, Tractenberg established and continues to serve as co-director of the Institute on Education Law and Policy (IELP), an interdisciplinary research project at Rutgers–Newark. He is also co-director of the Newark Schools Research Collaborative, a major project of IELP.
Later this year Tractenberg will welcome the publication by Rutgers University Press of New Jersey Goes A-Courting: 10 Legal Cases That Shook the Nation, his second book growing out of the Centennial celebration. Most of the cases have a major Rutgers Law School imprint.

Hi everybody,
Kindly forgive me if this question is too trivial for this forum. But I am just curious to find the right solution.
There are n ants ( of negligible width ) on 1m rod. They move at 1m/s and if they collide they reverse their direction without any delay. The ants fall off when they approach the end of the rod.
What will be the maximum time required for all ants to fall off ?
Intuitively an answer can be arrived at.
But is there a formal proof or solution for this ? How does one approach this problem for a mathematical proof ?
Thanks in advance, Ashish

This query returns only about 6 records.
However, if I use the two source_id in two separate query I got more than 20 item for both of them:
SELECT post_id, source_id FROM stream WHERE source_id in = 157528807603192

Dear Editor:
On behalf of the administrators of the partnering entities that have stayed the course to convert the long-standing dream of a new stadium and outdoor gathering space-- BG Products Veterans Sports Complex -- into reality, we seek this opportunity to thank the organizations and citizens of El Dorado who "dreamed things that never were and said why not?"
With full recognition that we were building this airplane as it was being flown, we know there were a few bumps during its inaugural flight. To those who so admirably managed the bumps, we want to publicly express our sincere appreciation.
While too numerous to mention the many individuals involved, there are a few that should be singled out: Butler County Emergency Management/Homeland Security CERT volunteers; the El Dorado Cadets and Police Department volunteers; the City of El Dorado staff; USD 490 and Butler game day event managers, athletic departments, maintenance and custodial staffs, and the information technology and media resources staffs.
Last, but absolutely not least, thank you to the steadfast supporters of all things good for the City of El Dorado, USD 490 and Butler Community College.
- Sue Givens, Superintendent, USD 490
- Herb Llewellyn, City Manager, City of El Dorado

The standard probability measure over countably many independent coin tosses (i.e., the probability that you get a prescribed prefix of length $v$ is $2^{-v}$) is usually obtained via results in measure theory (at least, that's what I have seen). Is there a streamlined presentation out there that uses the least possible amount of results from measure theory (ideally, none) to show that this is indeed a valid probability measure?
This version is due to Emile Borel ...
Sequence of heads & tails encoded as 0s and 1s, then sequence is taken to represent a number in $[0,1]$ in its binary expansion. The measure is Lebesgue measure.
So you still need to know that Lebesgue measure exists.

COLUMBUS - It wasn't the day Steubenville Big Red wrestling hoped for, but it was still one to be proud of Saturday at the Jerome Schottenstein Center at Ohio State University.
The Big Red grapplers put a pair of wrestlers on the podium as all-state with senior Greg Moray finishing as runner-up at 220 pounds and freshman Tariq Wilson finishing sixth at 106 pounds.
Moray's quest for a state title ended in heartbreaking fashion a with a 5-3 overtime loss to Wauseon's Zane Krall.

SECOND IN COLUMBUS — Steubenville Big Red senior Greg Moray was seeking a state title Saturday at Ohio State University in the Division II?wrestling championships at 220 pounds. Moray dropped a heartbreaking 5-3 decision in overtime to Wauseon's Zane Krall.
Tariq Wilson
"I think the biggest thing was we had a couple shots we either went out of bounds or we didn't finish, and when you're in the state finals you've got to be able to finish," said Big Red head coach Mike Blackburn. "I think Greg wrestled great this weekend. It's a shame it happened like that."
Moray held a 3-1 lead at one point in the match, and with a 3-2 lead in the third period, Krall was helped by a referee's "judgment call".
"We were called for fleeing the mat," said Blackburn. "That's a judgment thing. Greg's trying not to get taken down so he's trying to back out of it. Not back out of bounds. That's just the direction it went.
"You're not going to give up the takedown. You're going to try to fight it, which he was. That's a total judgment call by the official. That's why you can't let it come down to calls like that. You've got to win it yourself."
The call tied the score at 3-3 and sent the match to overtime where Krall secured a takedown for the state championship.
Despite the loss the two-time OVAC champions Moray had an outstanding season.
"He's been dominant every match he's been in," said Blackburn. "There wasn't too many matches he actually went all six minutes. That showed the first three rounds here (in Columbus), I think the closest match he had was 15-6.
"He had a great year, and it's just a rough way to end it."
Wilson, a freshman, had a rough Saturday, dropping a pair of matches, but standing on the podium in Columbus as a ninth-grader is still a great accomplishment.
"I think if you look at everyone that placed at 106, what a loaded weight class that was," said Blackburn. "Same thing (as Moray), it didn't go exactly the way he wanted, but he had a great weekend. He's a state placer as a freshman.
"All the way down from our match with Evan Cheek to John Martin, who is a senior. Both matches we should of won could of won, and as a freshman that's pretty good, and we beat a state champ at one time.
"That just tells you how good, and what kind of kid Tariq is."

Hello, given graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n=|V|$ and $k=|E|$, what is the probability that it does not contain any cycle $C_l$ for $l\geq3?$
The requested clarification: My intention was to form the question in such a way, that there is no information about any distribution of the edges, and n and k are parameters. This lack of information should be in fact the information. You construct graphs in any possible ways, and you have to decide which constructs are more possible to occur and which are less expected. This probably implies the uniform distribution.

Just What Is an Assault Rifle?
It is a widely-spread falsehood by the NRA and assault weapon supporters that the AR-15 civilian versions of the M-16 are not "military-style assault weapons" because they are semi-automatic (you have to pull the trigger for each single round), while military versions support full automatic fire. In fact, M-14s, Most versions of M-16s, and several versions of the newer M-4, do NOT support full automatic fire. The M-14 (predecessor to the M-16) was originally fully automatic, but due to the extreme difficulty soldiers had in controlling the weapon under full auto (due to the large 7.62 x 51 NATO round it was chambered for), the full automatic option was disabled. Making its appearance during the Vietnam era, the M-16 came in several models, only some of which supported full auto on their selector switches. The M-16 was chambered for the smaller, lighter 5.56 x 45 NATO round, so the lighter ammo was easier to carry and the weapon easier to control on full auto. M-16 rifles were made in several models, some of which did NOT support full auto. The original M-16 and M-16A1 had a 3-position selector switch for safe/semi/full automatic. Concerned with the tendency of all but the [More…]

Is it known whether or not every sheaf of ideals of the etale structure sheaf of a Noetherian scheme is generated by finitely many of its sections? Of course it is trivially true for some widely used special cases. But is it known one way or the other, in this generality?
I must apologize for posting a false answer. in writing up a proof i discovered a gap which grew to a counterexample.
In fact not every sheaf of ideals of an etale structure sheaf is finitely generated. I have added a counterexample to the end of my ArXiv paper on cohomology in second order arithmetic arXiv:1207.0276v2. Intuitively, an etale ideal can hold information about arbitrarily high degree extensions which is not reducible to information about any fixed degree so the ideal is not finitely generated.
The counterexample shows that given any non-zero element $x$ of an algebraically closed field $k$ a single etale sheaf of ideals on the punctuated line $k\0$ can pick one $2^n$-th root of $x$ for every $n$. The example has $x=1$ but rescaling $k\0$ takes 1 to any other $a\neq 0$.

Issue Date:
February, 2011
The February issue of Budget & Tax News reports on reactions to proposals (at the time the issue was written) to extend the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts. Also in this issue:
- The Illinois Senate passed a bill that would greatly expand legalized gambling in the state.
- A new "rain tax" that voters in Houston narrowly approved in the November general election could add thousands of dollars of fees to some properties. It applies to many properties, including schools and churches, that are tax-exempt.
- Support is beginning to grow for a proposed National Debt Relief Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. It states: "An increase in the federal debt requires approval from a majority of the legislatures of the separate States."
- A test of whether the new Congress and the president are serious about reducing the $1.3 trillion federal budget deficit will be whether they're willing to eliminate the $6 billion sacred cow of annual ethanol subsidies.
- For the first time since states began directly subsidizing film productions through their tax codes, in 2010 fewer states offered the credits at the end of the year than at the beginning.
- Eleven Utah cities have banded together to provide taxpayer-backed telecom services through a fiber-optic network they call UTOPIA. Unfortunately, UTOPIA has put these cities in a debt dystopia as their leaders learn commercial success is a much more elusive target than they imagined.

New to Friday Night Fights? It's easy to get involved!
Each week, a bunch of us Dtoiders get together to play video games online! It's a 100% community-run event, so feel free to join in or even host something yourself!
The planning for FNF starts here in the forums, where community members volunteer to host matches and post their pertinent details (game, time, Gamertag, etc.). Then, every Friday, reminder posts go up in the cblogs followed by a recap post on the front page for last-minute planning.
To join in, simply send a friend request to the match host! (Don't forget to say you're from Dtoid!) If you'd rather host something yourself, just post your details below in the following format:
Here's a lil cheat sheet of all the current MP games for the Wii U. Have fun!

Return to 2005 levels sought for local governments
February 5, 2013
MINGO JUNCTION — State Rep. Jack Cera, D-Bellaire, knows he has an uphill battle to get state funding restored to local communities....
Regarding quote by the Mingo Junction "mayor". "Did you just now figure that out, Einstein?!"

Why is it that it just had to mentioned that only Democrats support the bill and it will be hard to get it passed because the Republicans are in control? Sounds like and Obama move..... blame the Republicans, blame the Republicans. If you know that you are not going to get it passed, why waste your time? Do something that will actually help, find a practical way for the cities and townships and counties to generate revenue or cut expenses, that's what I have to do when I don't have cash.

Townships and villages face the same problem. Losing local government moneys is a problem.
Ka$sick wants to dismantle township government, the mopst grass roots form of government.
If other forms of government could do what townships do with so little, we'd all be better off.
Forcing bigger government is not the answer.
Sharing fire and EMS services would make more sense. Why should each township need their own fire and EMS? why not make us a county force or regional service.
Maintaining roads and right of ways is done a lot more effectively by townships where funding is viable.
The State wastes more blacktop in one day, than townships can affords to buy. Forcing the State do pave township roads just wouldn't happen.
Think about that Mr. Ka$sick.
