Bad Check Unit
Requirements for Bad Check Prosecution
In order to win a prosecution of a bad check case in court, the prosecutor must be able to prove that a specific defendant wrote a specific check. Since many weeks may have passed from the time you accepted the check until the time of testifying, we require you to have followed these procedures:
Require the check(s) be written in your presence and be legible.
Require the driver's license number of the person writing the check and the state where the license was issued be recorded or written on the check. Compare the person in the photograph to the person in front of you to make sure they match. If the photo does not match the person presenting the check, you may refuse the check.
Require a current address.
Checks taken by employees should always be initialed by the person accepting the check.
DO NOT ACCEPT CHECKS DRAWN UPON OUT OF STATE BANKS unless you are willing to accept the risk of loss.
Prosecution May Not Be Possible in the Following Situations
If the person who accepted the check is unknown or not available.
If the person who accepted the check cannot identify the check writer in court.
If the person who accepted the check did not make a record of the driver's license and the state of issuance.
If you made an agreement with the check writer to accept partial payments on the check.
If you had an agreement with the check writer to hold the check.
If the check is not dated or was post-dated.
REMEMBER: Cashing a check is a privilege, not a right. You are not required to accept a check from anyone. You have the right to insist upon another form of payment, i.e., cash, money order, debit, or credit card.

On my '09 Chevy Traverse, the windshield washer pump stopped working on both the front and back. I first checked for fuses. There was one in the fuse block under the hood, that one looked good. I found another under the dash on the passenger side (what a PITA to get at). That one was blown. I replaced that one and now the rear works. When I try the front, I hear a click (a relay?) but nothing else happens. Any idea if there is another fuse somewhere label incorrectly or where I should look next?

So I replaced my pump... and it still didn't work. After doing some more looking I discovered that I read the fuse map wrong and put the fuse in the wrong spot. After putting it in the right spot it started to work. Since I know you can't take used electronic parts back, I just kept it in and kept the old one.
BTW, to get at the pump, you have to remove the wheel and open up the wheel well.
Is it possible the pump is seized? This could also cause the fuses to blow.

Macroeconomic Effects of Reducing the Effective Tax Rate on Repatriated Foreign Subsidiary Earnings in a Credit- and Liquidity-Constrained Environment
January 30, 2009
Study Summary
- 23% of AJCA repatriated funds went towards hiring and training of U.S. employees.
- Increasingly, U.S. companies are earning a larger portion of profits oversees. This means there is more and more money being earned and held overseas. It is estimated that in 2007 38% of sales for S&P 500 companies were derived from foreign activities. This means repatriated funds could be substantially greater than in 2004.
- It is estimated that $565 billion could be repatriated this time around.
- Another one-time repatriation could increase real GDP by an average of $62 billion a year over five years.
- Spending on Research & Development would increase by an estimated $7 billion per year over five years.
- Models show a new one-time repatriation could help reduce the federal budget deficit by $47.6 billion a year over five years.
- Corporate cash flow would increase by an estimated $134.4 billion a year over five years; it is predicted that this additional money would be spent principally on plant and equipment. This would indicate a significant improvement for nonfinancial corporations.
- Overall, repatriation could increase liquidity, reduce the need for borrowing, increase cash flow and stimulate capital spending and hiring.

World Bank Predicts Slower Growth In East Asia
The World Bank warns of a deeper and longer slowdown in the region driven by weak exports and domestic demand. At the center of this is an accelerated slowdown in China, where the bank cut its annual growth rate prediction, lowering it to 7.7 percent, about half a point down.
NPR's business news starts with slower growth in East Asia.
INSKEEP: That prediction comes from a World Bank report released today. The bank warns of a deeper and longer slowdown in the region caused by weak exports and weak domestic demand.
At the center of all this is a greater than slowing of the Chinese economy. The bank cut its annual growth prediction for China to 7.7 percent, which is down about half a point. Though next year, they expect China's economy to rebound a bit, helped by government stimulus measures.

Roasted Curry Cauliflower
Kids, your mom is going back work so things are going to be different around here. My parents said something like this to me and my brothers when I was 12 year old. And, with Vegan Son #1 ready to hit twelve in December, we just said it to our kids. Vegan Mom has gone back to school to pursue her MEd and PhD in Education. Needless to say, things have changed in our household. With time at a premium we need to be more efficient in our meal planning. We need to start thinking about making some meals ahead and freezing them, and creating quick but nutritious dinners. So many people have commented on this blog about where I find the time to cook. Well, now I know what they were talking about. We have 4 kids in 3 different schools, plus gymnastics and swimming lessons. When my mom went back to work she would leave simple instructions for us kids on how to make dinner. This is when I first started to cook. I am hoping to do something similar with Vegan Son #1 and pass down a love of food to the next generation.
This recipe is pretty easy and makes the house smell great. Spice how you prefer--a pre-made curry powder even.
- 1 cauliflower, cut into large pieces
- 1 sweet onion, thickly sliced
- olive oil
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp coriander
- 1/2 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp garam masala
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- salt and pepper to taste
- juice of 1/2 lemon
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Put cauliflower and onion slices in large bowl. Drizzle with some olive oil (1-2 tsp) and toss to coat. Mix spices together in a small bowl and sprinkle over cauliflower. Toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Spread out on the baking sheet.
3. Loosely cover the baking sheet with a piece of aluminum foil. Bake for 15 mins. Remove foil and bake for another 10-15 mins, or until cauliflower is tender and browned.
4. Drizzle lemon juice over the cauliflower and serve.

Wow, kudos to you & your wife. Busy, busy, I can imagine. Even more impressive is your commitment to feeding your kids great, healthy vegan food, despite the life changes. Best of luck to your wife--a PhD program is quite a task!
My kids already love roasted cauliflower, so I'm excited to try this one out. Thank you!

Best of luck to you all as you adapt to this new schedule and increase in demands on your time. Planning ahead really does make it all go smoother.

This looks beautiful! I made a similar dish yesterday, but I find that my cauliflower always ends up a little more mushy than crunchy.
Perhaps I need to do that bake half covered and half uncovered....
Great shot!

Do you use a particular blend for your garam masala as it varies according to region in India? I used curry powder I already had but might try mixing my own in the future.

I ENJOY invoking the wisdom of Soren Kierkegaards dictum that when an idea is unanimously accepted it follows it must be an error.
I think it near to being a universally accepted assumption that a defining role of all governments, even perhaps a duty, is to have a monopoly of money issuing within its jurisdiction. It was true of silver or gold coins.
The prince, king or emperor had to be the sole-issuer.
It was the essence of sovereignty to some. To others it was a potent taxing power.
I put my head above this well armoured parapet of agreement. We do not need government monopoly of money. We do not need Central Banks.
Abolition of this stale monopoly would open up new horizons for business and cure forever the deep-seated disease of the recurring waves of depression and unemployment that are deemed to be the fault of capitalism but which are really caused by Central Bank bungling.
At its most simple a state monopoly of money excuses all governments of the need to keep its expenditures within revenues. The spectacular increase in state control of the economy would be far less easy without these crucial controls derived from a money monopoly.
The attribution of money-issuing as a task fit only for politicians is an odd one. Is there a group of people more open to temptation and evasion of integrity?
Chancellor Gordon Brown was applauded for his innovation of sub-contracting the currency and the rate of inflation to the Bank of England. Such has been the dreadful record of political money powers that we regard the current rate of inflation, bobbing along above 2% and rising as fairly creditable. It is shameful. At 2% the value of the pound is halved in 35 years and at 3% it is a mere 23 years. The correct rate is zero - year in and year out. Inflation is merely the dilution of the currency by those with a monopoly of its creation.
Do not be diverted by the mythical causes of inflation such as greedy trade unions, oil sheiks, speculators or retailers. They merely see a countrys money losing value so their prices rise. The commonplace view that middle men cause price rises is as scientific as thinking rain is caused by wet pavements.
In the European Union (EU) we may have seen the high watermark of the monopoly-money ideal. Those nations that signed up for the euro have submitted to a supra-national central bank.
Not a voice was heard from official sources that a total free market in monies might be more fruitful and more interesting. This was the hoovering up of monetary diversity into a Commission-derived monopoly The notion that lays unspoken in so much public debate is that the state is the repository of a wisdom and benevolence not to be found in the vulgar rough and trouble of the market.
I contest the notion civil servants, in this case central bankers, are disinterested guardians of the public good. They are the eternal exponents of monetary nationalism as well as inflation.
I do not claim my notion is original. The first person to write on this theme was Professor Benjamin Klein. Other liberals, in the old sense, have doubted the sense in gifting such a role to the political class.
Perhaps the most arresting essay on this topic was Hayeks seminal The Denationalisation of Money. Hayek argued that it is only numismatists that have no illusions about central banks. The great inflations of the past such as Diocletian or Henry VIII were all attributed eventually to rascals (perhaps we should say crooks?) adding base metal to the coins, clipping their coins or, when it came to paper money, simply printing much more than they said they would. The issuing of extra money empowers the state.
Professor Hayek argues that money does not need to be created by a single authority but, like laws and language and morals, it would emerge and evolve spontaneously.
I am not arguing for a return to a semi-religious worship of gold but I do observe its central attribute, beyond its lustre, that the supply of new gold is very restricted while new money is simply a printing press act.
Hayek urges business to create a free money movement to match their free trade lobbying of the 19th century. I agree. It can sound a little utopian and impractical but what could be plainer?
Government monopoly of money is pernicious and harmful. It can be seen as little more than a subtle but
powerful form of taxation. This is no minor technicality in finance but a crucial reform that would be a blessing to every nation.
If globalisation is a growing, and welcome, reality for business why are we locked into only a few state money options?
It is opinion that rules the world. The opinion that governments are competent or honest custodians of money is ripe for change.

ASTM Infant Swings Spec Adopted in CPSC Rule
May 7, 2013, Set as Effective Date for RulingProvisions from ASTM International F2088-12a, Consumer Safety Specification for Infant Swings, have been incorporated in a newly approved U.S. federal mandatory safety standard, passed unanimously by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, to improve the safety of infant swings and prevent child injuries and deaths. The new federal requirement establishes a minimum safety level that an infant swing product must meet before it can be sold in the U.S.
Between May 2011 and May 2012, CPSC compiled reports of 351 infant swing-related incidents that happened from 2009 to 2012. Two of these incidents resulted in fatalities and 24 incidents resulted in injury.
F2088 was developed by Subcommittee F15.21 on Infant Carriers, Bouncers and Baby Swings, part of ASTM International Committee F15 on Consumer Products. Originally published in 2001 and most recently revised in 2012, F2088 defines "infant swing" as "a stationary unit with a frame and powered mechanism that enables an infant to swing in a seated position. An infant swing is intended for use with infants from birth until a child is able to sit up unassisted."
"The CPSC adoption of F2088 as a federal rule would require all infant swings introduced into commerce be compliant with the standard," says Clair Arsenault, compliance and quality manager, Artsana USA (Chicco USA) and co-chairman of Subcommittee F15.21.
The effective date for the CPSC standard is May 7, 2013. The new federal standard requires the following:
- A stronger, more explicit warning label about preventing slump-over deaths. The warning advises consumers to use a swing in the most reclined position until an infant is four months old and can hold up its head without help;
- A stability test that ensures the swing will not tip over;
- A test that checks for unintentional folding prevention;
- Tests on restraint systems, which are intended to prevent slippage and breakage of the restraints during use;
- That the cradle swing surface remain relatively flat while in motion and at rest;
- Electrically powered swings to be designed to prevent battery leakage and overheating;
- Toy mobiles to be designed to ensure that toys do not detach when pulled;
- Swings with seats angles greater than 50 degrees to have shoulder strap restraints; and
- Dynamic and static load requirements to ensure that infant swings can handle specified loads without breaking.

A divided U.S. Senate has gridlocked on last-minute proposals to avert $85 billion in broad-based federal spending cuts set to kick in tomorrow.
The partisan divide came after Senate chaplain Barry Black opened the day's session with a prayer asking God to save lawmakers from themselves.
A Republican proposal requiring President Barack Obama to propose alternative cuts that would cause less disruption in essential government services was defeated by Democrats. A Democratic alternative to spread the cuts over a decade and replace half with higher taxes on millionaires and corporations picked up 51 votes. But that was short of the 60 votes needed to overcome a GOP-led filibuster.
The immediate impact of the reductions on the public is not clear. The administration has warned that the cuts will mean a reduction in defense capability, fewer federal services and both federal and state layoffs. Republicans counter that the impact is being hyped.

Would be nice if the down voters would post why they down voted.
@mrsmoofy do a search on 'ask the community' if you really want to know.
@steveysjs: no results found that was pointless.
I have ordered from Shadora in the past and never had issues. They have a lip gloss for a buck as an add on that I think is a great deal - http://shadora.com/products/one-lip-shimmer-gloss-for-a-dollar
@mrsmoofy: Because Shadora is about as shady as it gets with jewerly. They use larger than real-life pictures, so you think you're getting a bigger piece. They misinform customers about actual gemstone content and weight, and are pretty much just an outlet for junk costume jewlery. I've seen them advertise 1 Ct diamond earings for under $100. Let's go with the old saying..If you believe that price, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.
@ricka182: Thank you
@ricka182: They use the large picture to show detail and if you read in the descriptions they give you measurements. I think it is up to the buyer to read a little before buying. I have bought from them with no issues but I also realize that you do in many cases get what you pay for.
I did not up or down vote, but IMHO, I don't care what the quality is, I just think it's tacky---as are those gold dipped roses that sell around Valentine's Day for $100.
If I'm going to get roses, I want real ones---even if it's only 1.

I'm building a Ranger(Scout) for an upcoming campaign and I was wondering if, while using gauntlet-axe, I would be able to Make two handed attacks using versatile weapons (such as the bastard sword)? In the builder it won't let me, but it also doesn't let you slot the gauntlet-axe into the arms slot which the compendium explicitly says you an do. It has shield like qualities, but doesn't actually fall into the shield weapon group. I also am assuming that it functions like wrist razors and spiked knuckles. I'd appreciate the folks here to weigh-in before I talk to my DM about it. For the purposes of this question I am talking about a mundane gauntlet-axe without an enchantment.

Because it leaves your hand open you should go ahead and put it in your weapon slot anyways. You're going to want it enchanted as a weapon and not a shield anyways so you want it there.
Second, just because it's in your hands slot, does not mean it's consuming that slot. It's on your hand, but the text obviously allows you to wield your bastard sword two handed.
Finally, you can definitely use the scout power Dual Strike with your bastard sword two handed. You will get the damage bonus and also be able to attack with the gauntlet axe.
Important: If your DM for some reason does not allow you to attack with the gauntlet axe while using the bastard sword two handed, take your hand off the sword for the second attack. Changing the number of hands a weapon is using is a free action thus you should be able to easily take your hand off the sword, strike with the gauntlet and grip the sword again. (This should be unnecessary as the text is pretty clear here). If your DM still does not allow this, just move on and try a different strategy.

I normally stick with
"he said" and
"she said" to keep things simple and transparent to the reader but wondering about questions. Is
"she asked" and
"he asked" appropriate when a character asks a question? Can
"he said" and
"she said" be okay attributives for questions?
I normally stick with
'Asked' is generally not considered a said-bookism by most editors and readers AFAIK. In fact, I always use it when a character is asking a question. Because something like "'But how can that be?' he said." sounds wrong to me.
An aside related to comments on @LaurenIpsum 's answer: I only use the following:
Edit: I also use "replied" occasionally.
"He said" and "she said" are definitely fine when used with questions as well as statements and exclamations. When used with expressive dialog that speaks for itself the attributive may even be unnecessary, especially if there is other action text which makes it clear who is speaking. When the attributive is necessary or useful with expressive dialog, it tends to disappear, which I as a reader view as a good thing.
I think the occasional use of "he asked" and "she asked" is still fairly transparent, but it would be easiest to tell in a snippet for critique. More expressive language such as "she mumbled" or "he grunted" should be used with an intent to call attention to itself, because those attributives will make themselves obvious and catch the reader's focus.
Sounds fine to me. But then, I don't object to a judicious use of synonyms for "said," either. (grumbled, snarled, sighed, snickered, hinted, etc.)
They're fine; they certainly aren't an error. If a particular use sounds awkward, don't hesitate to drop attribution entirely (it's often still quite clear who's talking, because most conversations are dialogue, so it's whoever wasn't talking the previous paragraph), or to move the attribution up to earlier in the line:
This removes the incongruous sense of using "said" for a question, because it puts distance between the attributive and the question mark.

I would like to install shelves in my wall. The wall itself is sheetrock. What tools would I need, and how would I go about it? I believe what I'm trying to do is called built-in shelving, if that helps.
We need a whole lot more detail here to give you any helpful answers.
Your wall is more than sheetrock. Sheetrock is just the outer part. Inside there will be studs (metal or wood) and possibly insulation, wiring and plumbing.
As stated, built-ins aren't 'inside' walls...merely built into the house as a whole.A built-in can be as simple as buying a bookshelf, sticking it against the wall, and then trimming it out to give the look of it being originally built as part of the house. On the other end of the spectrum, you could take down the entire wall and construct a full-wall storage unit that also acts as a supporting wall.
Think of your built in shelves like your cabinets in your kitchen. Your cabinets are not built into the wall, they are built separate and then put into the areas that have been famed in to hold your cabinets giving it that built in look. You can do the same thing with your wall without tearing anything down, but rather adding onto it.
First thing you would do is to find out how wide you would want your bookshelf. Standered bookshelf width is about 11-3/4 inches(the width of a 1x12). You would build you a small wing wall that would connect to your main wall on each side, or on one side of the area where you wanted your bookshelf. Sheetrock it, then build you shelves on the inside of the new area. This will give you the look you are wanting. Or you can do like the other guy said and buy you a premade bookself and screw it into the studs of your wall. That is the easiest and cheapest way to go.

We are planning on using SharePoint 2010 to host our Intranet and want to use it as an electronic document management system for personnel records too. What deployment scenario would be best for us?
We have 5000 users who access the existing Intranet, primarily to view information rather than add or edit content. We would like to use the SharePoint platform to develop in-house applications too. The main SharePoint services we would like to use is the Web Content Management System, Excel services and Search services, although we would like to keep our options open and may decide to use other services such as Access services for example.
With regard to the electronic document management system the files will be PDFs and there will be any number of documents for all of our 5000 employees. It's difficult to estimate the size of the documents, however I would roughly estimate an average of 100kb per document.

Carmi Police Chief Radny Hamblin said Wednesday morning (today) an arrest warrant is being sought for a 17-year-old male from Carmi after police were forced to deploy a Taser during an attempt to arrest the teen Saturday night.
Hamblin said paperwork concerning the incident has been forwarded to White County State's Attorney Denton Aud for consideration of formal charges of resisting a police officer and domestic battery.
Officers were called to a residence in the 800 block of Sycamore Street around 9:27 p.m. Saturday on a report of someone there wanting to sign a battery complaint. However, Hamblin said, when officers arrived, they found an active domestic battery occurring between the teen and a family member identified as Emily R. Lewallen, 18, also of Carmi.
The officers were able to separate the two but the 17-year-old male began resisting the efforts of a Carmi police officer and a White County sheriff's deputy to take him into custody. A Taser was deployed but was ineffective. The teen fled on foot and has not been taken into custody pending the filing of formal charges.
Lewallen was booked at the City-County Jail on preliminary charges of resisting a police officer, domestic battery and illegal consumption of alcohol by a minor pending $500 cash bail.

A generic elliptic curves over C has automorphism group of order 2. The elliptic curves with extra automorphisms are C/Z[i] (automorphism group of order 4) and C/Z[w] where w is a primitive 3rd root of unity (automorphism group of order 6). One can use their extra automorphisms to prove that they can be defined over Q
Similarly, the Klein quartic (a genus 3 curve with 168 automorphisms, the maximum possible number for genus 3 curves) can be defined over Q.
Suppose X is a genus g curve over C. Is there a condition on the group Aut(X) that guarantees that X is defined over a number field?
I feel like maybe one could try to approach this question by passing to the Jacobian of X and arguing that extra automorphisms of X give extra automorphisms of J(X) which means that J(X) has "large" endomorphism ring and hence must be defined over a number field (just as CM elliptic curves are defined over number fields), but I don't know whether "large" is large enough.

I have the stable current release of openSUSE (12.2) on one of my desktops, I want to upgrade it to development release without downloading the DVD and doing a media upgrade.
Is it possible? How do I do that?
This is possible, and is supported on a best-effort basis.
The method to update from 12.2 to 12.3 RC1 (or RC2 or final when they are released) should be identical to the procedure described in the openSUSE wiki for upgrading from 12.1 to 12.2, just replace the numbers in the descriptions and repository URLs from 12.2->12.3 and 12.1->12.2.
If you do this then a simple zypper dup should upgrade the install to the final release on 13. march 2013 as well, as the repository URLs should not change.
In terminal type
If you are looking for tumbleweed then do as follows:
The only supported method of repo use for Tumbleweed is to have only the main repos (Oss, Non-oss, and Update) and the Tumbleweed repo active. For that situation a simple
will update your packages, and if any packages are ever reverted from Tumbleweed zypper dup will also handle that.
Despite it being unsupported, if you do choose to have other repos enabled, this command is safer:

GARDEN CITY – More than 600 farmers, ranchers, industry representatives, and community leaders joined Governor Sam Brownback Wednesday at meetings in Scott City and Garden City to discuss next steps in conserving and extending the life of the Ogallala Aquifer. The meetings included presentations from K-State and Kansas Geological Survey staff members who shared information on groundwater projection and economic modeling.
"About two-thirds of our state's agricultural economic value come from the counties that are located above the Ogallala Aquifer," Governor Brownback said. "Last summer more than 400 Kansans attended our Economic Summit on the Future of the Ogallala Aquifer. As a result of legislation that came out of that summit, Kansans now have many of the tools requested at the summit. I am here to encourage you and ask what you plan to do with these tools to conserve this vital resource."
Following stakeholder input, the Ogallala Aquifer Advisory Committee, Kansas Water Authority, Kansas Water Office and Kansas Department of Agriculture-Division of Water Resources developed recommendations which became the Governor's 2012 Water Policy Legislation:
· HB 2451 - Eliminate the state's "use it or lose it" water policy
· SB 272 - Amend the multi-year flex accounts to expand irrigator's capabilities
· HB 2516 - Amend the state's water banking program
· HB 2517 - Extend the sunset of the Water Transition Assistance Program (WTAP) by 10 years to 2022
· SB 310 - Provide a process for LEMA conservation plans with local decision making control; plans approved by the Chief Engineer
· SB 148 - Codify the division of a water right without losing priority
While the aquifer in many areas has been declining for decades, the intense drought has heightened the issue even more.
"A group of stakeholders in northwest Kansas called the Sheridan 6 have stepped out and have led their own effort to conserve and extend the water in their area," said Gary Harshberger, Kansas Water Authority and Ogallala Aquifer Advisory Committee Chair. "We are here to encourage this type of local leadership to be duplicated all over the Ogallala Aquifer and help establish other local enhanced management areas."
Governor Brownback also shared with stakeholders the state's willingness to dedicate funding to assist in answering questions and getting Local Enhanced Management Areas started if they desired. He emphasized at both meetings that the state wants to assist in any way that is needed, but this must be a locally led effort.

I own a url shortening service. I want to deliver only legitimate statistics to my clients. There are possible scenarios that a particular user writes a script to automatically open the shortened URL, thus making the statistics look bad. What are the approaches one can follow to detect if a click is legitimate or not? The very basic approach that I can think of is to monitor the IP address of the user and block if the number of requests exceed a threshold.
There's a number of potential methods you can use to differentiate bots from humans but none of them are likely 100%
Obviously as you say rate limiting catches the really stupid bots who don't know to click at human speed. You could say one click per IP but that will artificially deflate your stats in the case of humans behind a proxy (becoming more common as IPv4 addresses run out)
IP blocking isn't too useful in the days of cloud computing, it's pretty easy for an attacker to get a different IP or range of IPs to work from if they're dedicated enough.
As @fas says you can try user agent, but again that'll only catch bots who don't know how to set a user-agent which isn't really too difficult to do.
You could introduce some "computer hard" task into the clicking process but that would make your site pretty user unfriendly (e.g. CAPTCHA's). Again not 100% but harder to overcome trivially.
Ultimately I'd suggest it depends on how motivated/well funded your attackers are. If they are reasonably motivated and have some cash they can just hire real people to click the link (e.g. via amazon mechanical turk), at which point you're likely going to find it tricky to differentiate legitimate traffic from non-legitimate traffic.
Assuming your attackers are more casual about it, I'd say combine User Agent and source IP address. User Agents can actually be relatively identifying (more info on the panopticlick site ). So if you limit each user agent to one click per source IP address you may get a decent approximation, against an relatively unsophisticated attacker.
Owen's answer above reminded me of something very low tech but simple and effective that I've tried. To get an idea of how badly bots are skewing my click stats, -- right next to my affiliate banner graphic -- I have a single-pixel, transparent gif that's also wrapped in an href tag. I think it's safe to assume that only bots would be clicking that invisible link so I just compare the number of clicks for the affiliate banner vs. the transparent, 1-pixel gif link.
Try checking for valid user agents and referers. User Agents can always be spoofed but that's your best bet. Even if a bot is clicking through though, I'd consider that traffic.
A little method I've just come up with thinking about this (and it's probably been done before):
When a link is clicked with a mouse, it generates an event, and that even has a property
If a link is clicked using an ECMAScript trigger of the click event, the
If you interrupt a click event and check whether
This is a very basic idea, and I haven't honed it down or tested it well, but maybe it will be of use to you. I've created a rough CodePen demo highlighting the functionality, with a simple version of the code that it might run.
I haven't checked it on a touch device, and you may well find that Touch events do not return these properties either, meaning you may need to find an alternative property to check for on touch devices, if this were to work effectively.
In terms of blue sky thinking, it's not too bad though, and it may help you form a more cogent approach to avoiding clickjacking.

Housing and Residence Life > Information for Families > FAQs for Families
Safety and security is one of our top priorities for Housing and Residence Life. All of our residence halls, Marchetti Apartments and The Flats are locked 24 hours a day. Any SLU student can swipe their Billiken ID to gain access in the front door. ONLY residents of the building swipe their ID a second time to gain access beyond the security desk (staffed 24 hours a day, exception The Flats).
Visitors must check in at the front desk and be escorted at all times. Security cameras are also present in the front desk area of the residence halls and can be accessed by hall staff and the Department of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness for emergency purposes. The Village and Grand Forest Apartments do not have front desks and students are responsible for locking their apartment doors at all times. Sprinklers and smoke detectors are present in all apartments and residence halls.
When does my student have to check out after final exams?
Students are expected to check out within 24 hours of their last final exam. Students who are unable to check out at that time should contact their Residence Hall Coordinator to request an extension.
Does my student need to remove anything from their room during breaks?
Students do not generally have to remove items from their rooms during Thanksgiving, Winter and Spring breaks. We do recommend that students take home any valuable items with them over break periods.
Are there any options for break housing?
Reinert, Pruellage Halls and campus apartments stay open during Thanksgiving, Winter and Spring Breaks. If you need to stay on campus during breaks, it is highly recommended you apply to reside in these facilities. We do not generally provide other housing options for students during breaks.
What is the University's visitation policy for the residence halls?
Different residence halls have different policies regarding visitation but no facility has unlimited visitation times.
Visitation hours in Griesedieck Complex, Reinert Hall, DeMattias Hall, Marguerite Hall, Pruellage Hall, and Fusz Hall:
Visitation hours in Laclede Houses, Village Apartments, Marchetti Towers and Grand Forest Apartments:
Regardless of which policy is in place; all guests must be registered at the security desk and be escorted at all times. Please be sure you and your student review the Housing and Residence Life Handbook for more information.
How should I send mail to my student living in a residence hall?
Student mail is not delivered to individual residence hall facilities. Any current student can be assigned a mailbox or MSC box by requesting one at the mailroom office, located on the first floor, rear of the Busch Student Center. When addressing mail to your student, use the following format:
Student first and last name
20 N. Grand, MSC Box ________
St. Louis, MO 63103
If a student receives a package, they will be notified via a package slip in their mailbox and will pick up the item from the mailroom. For more information visit Student Mail Services.
What should my student do if he/she wants a room reassignment or doesn't get along with his/her roommate?
It is actually fairly normal for roommate conflicts and disagreements to occur from time to time. Students can learn a lot about communication, problem solving and decision making when they live others who are different from them. Hall staff will work with roommates who are having difficulties communicating and/or getting along. Typically, the roommate agreement will be revisited and adjusted. Peer mediation is also a great resource that is provided in these situations. We have seen great success with students who can work through difficult situations and learn how to resolve conflict.
There is a brief period during the fall and spring semesters (after the first 2 weeks of the semester) that a student can meet with their Residence Hall Coordinator to discuss room reassignment options. Typically, room reassignments are not made outside of this period.
What is the difference between "meals" and "flex"/"bonus flex"?
A meal can be used at one of our all-you-can eat dining halls. Meals can be used at Reinert and Griesedieck Dining Halls. If students use all of their allotted meals during a specific week, they may purchase additional meals at the dining halls for a set price in flex dollars. Meals renew every Thursday and unused meals do not carry over.
Flex points are used to purchase food. They should be used at times when "all you can eat" is not what you have in mind, or if you have used all of your meals for the week. Flex can be used at all Billiken Dining Services locations and they will transfer from the fall semester to the spring semester. Any remaining at the end of the spring semester will be forfeited.
Bonus Flex is just like Flex, with two exceptions: you buy these funds in addition to your meal plan, and these funds do not expire at the end of the semester. Students with a Meal Plan may deposit increments of $50 to increase their food service purchases and an additional bonus is then added to the student's Bonus Flex account. These funds are used only to purchase food.
Where can I add more money to my student's Billiken Bucks?
Billiken Bucks can be added online by visiting Parking & Card Services.
What if my student wants to change their meal plan?
Students may change their meal plans once per semester. To do so they may visit Housing and Residence Life Office (Village Brown Hall) or Parking & Card Services Office (DuBourg Hall, Room 33).
Who takes care of the students who live in the residence halls?
Three hundred student staff (Resident Advisors, Security Desk Staff, and Learning Community Mentors), professional live-in Residence Hall Coordinators, Graduate Hall Coordinators, Campus Ministers, administrative support staff and housekeepers help provide support for your student living on campus. The Department of Campus Ministry provides additional support and development opportunities for students.
Is there a curfew?
No, but students are not permitted to visit opposite sex floors and/ or rooms between 2-7 am Sunday through Thursday and 4-7 am Friday and Saturday.
Can I see the room my student will be living in?
Room dimensions are available on the Housing and Residence Life webpage (click on the building on the left links and then on floor plans). We cannot show the exact room your student will occupy, but for first-year students please take advantage of tours of housing during your campus visit and/or during summer orientation, SLU 101 for a general idea of what sample rooms look like in each building.
What furniture comes standard in a room?
One bed (9" memory foam mattress sizes: 75" for Marguerite and 80" all others), one desk, one desk chair, one dresser. Some buildings have rooms with built in closets or moveable wardrobes. The apartments will have additional furnishings and those can be found on the Housing and Residence Life page, depending on location.
What items are not allowed in the residence halls?
A full and complete list of restricted items is available in the Housing and Residence Life Handbook. Some examples of restricted items are:
What is a loft kit and how does my student get one?
Lofts help maximize floor space in your room. Each loft kit will allow the bed of one person to be elevated (72 inches from floor to top of mattress) on an additional set of bed ends that are then secured by support braces. This allows enough room below the bed for a desk and dresser to be placed. Loft kits will be present in any room where they can be utilized. Please note, the loft kit is the property of the University and as with all furnishings must remain in the room. To have adjustments to your loft, please contact the Housing and Residence Life office at 314-977-2811 or email@example.com.
Who should my student contact if they are having issues with:
Cable or Furniture- contact Housing and Residence Life at 314-977-2811 or email@example.com
Internet- contact Information Technology Services at 314-977-4000 or email@example.com
Facilities Services (i.e. light bulbs, pest control, malfunctioning air conditioner/ heater, etc.)- complete an online work order
Who can I contact if I need additional information or ask questions?

The Basement Boys call it quits
Wrestling club will disbandat the end of AugustThe Basement Boys program started in 1985 with coaches Denny Reddinger and Monty Jones. The program was called the Hermiston Offroad Stingers. The club wrestled all three styles and traveled throughout Washington and Oregon. In 1990, the club became the Basement Boys when Monty and Shelley Jones started traveling with their son, Dustin, Sean Riley and many others.This was the driving force to keep the club alive at the time. The basement at Monty and Shelley's became too small to hold practice sessions because of all the kids who were participating in the program, so club practices were moved to the fairgrounds.From there, the club moved to various facilities and when they were unable to find a good place to stay, they stopped practicing. The club started back up again in 2004 when TJ Baun was five-years-old and he asked Monty if he could learn to wrestle freestyle so he could "beat the freestyle kid" that beat him at the end of his first Mat Rats season. Back to the Jones' basement they went.From there, the USA Wrestling club grew again from about five to 67 wrestlers that wrestled Folkstyle, Freestyle and Greco Roman over a 10-month season. The club has since been ranked top five in the state for seven years and has been a very good feeder program for the high school, helping them win numerous titles. The club has had multiple All-Americans (top eight in the nation) and has had wrestlers selected to wrestle for Team Washington at the National School Boy Duals. Additionally, the Basement Boys' wrestlers have had numerous district, regional and state placers once they have journeyed into high school. In 2011, Monty and Shelley turned the club over to Tom and Lori Baun and Kris DePaulo to run.As of August 31, 2013, the Basement Boys Wrestling Club will conclude Its many years of hard work, commitment and success from both the wrestlers and the parents. The club has had a GREAT run!The club was originally designed and set up to be a three-style traveling club. Over the past few years, the commitment to participating in all three styles, practicing and traveling has declined dramatically. After numerous lengthy discussions, and looking at all options, it's with heavy hearts that the board members and founders of the Basement Boys Wrestling Club made the decision to discontinue the program.There is a small group of wrestlers that plan to continue to participate in USA Wrestling and wrestle unattached. In an effort to get these young wrestlers to get themselves to the next level, it has become evident that they need to travel to surrounding wrestling club practices to find and have kids to practice with. They have committed to traveling twice a week to out of town practices, traveling to more out of state tournaments, and are committed to the entire three-style season.If you are interested in committing to all three styles of wrestling, traveling to various tournaments inside and outside of Washington state, and willing to participate in taking the kids to practices, please contact Tom Baun, Lori Baun or Kris DePaulo. We want to thank everyone in the community for all their support all these years. The program wouldn't have been successful without all the support of local merchants. Two special merchants we would like to recognize are Booth & LaDuke Motors and Chris Cowbrough, who have consistently supported the Basement Boys program over the years.Last and most definitely not least, Tom, Lori and Kris would like to extend a special thank you to Monty and Shelley Jones for all their dedication and love for the sport of wrestling and for all of the wrestlers who learned from their wisdom throughout all those practices, tournaments and weekend after weekend of their time building the wrestling family we know and love today.In wrestling: Monty Jones, Shelley Jones, Tom Baun, Lori Baun and Kris DePaulo

June 25, 2007 - The prevalence of the drug-resistant staph MRSA in the nation's hospitals is as much as 11 times greater than previous estimates suggest, according to findings from the most comprehensive study of the infection ever done.
For every 1,000 patients treated in U.S. hospitals, 46 cases of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) now occur, researchers concluded.
The finding was based on "snapshot" surveys of infection control workers representing 21% of the health care facilities in the United States, conducted by the group Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC).
The study was also the first to include both active MRSA infection and patients who were carriers of the bacteria (not sickened by infection, but were able to transmit it to others).
Infection control specialist William Jarvis, MD, tells WebMD that the findings should serve as a wake-up call for those running the nation's hospitals, nursing homes, and other in-patient health care centers.
"We know what to do," he says. "This problem is larger than we thought, and the resources need to be made available to appropriately address it."
MRSA 'Super Bug'
First reported in U.S. hospitals in the late 1970s, MRSA is now by far the most common hospital-acquired staph infection in this country and throughout the world.
Known as a super bug because it is resistant to so many antibiotics, MRSA is seen most often in patients who have undergone invasive medical procedures or who have weakened immune systems.
While it is clear that MRSA is a growing problem in the nation's hospitals and other health care facilities, little research has been done to determine the exact magnitude of the problem at a national level.
In an effort to address this, APIC polled its members working in infection control at hospitals and other health care centers in all 50 states.
Participants were asked to provide a one-day 'snapshot' of their facility's MRSA burden, including patients who were either infected or colonized, meaning they had no symptoms from the MRSA but were able to transmit MRSA to others.
The survey responses indicated that for every 1,000 patients treated in hospital or other in-patient health care settings, 34 are infected and 12 are colonized with MRSA.
Seventy-five percent of cases were identified within 48 hours of hospital admission, meaning these patients probably acquired the infection during a previous hospital stay or within the community.

There are too many times when adults need to be reminded about life.
Such was the case Saturday night at the Ohio Division I football regional playoff game between Lakewood St. Edward and Mentor.
It's a stark reminder of life.
Brandon Shime, a junior varsity player at Mentor, died Thursday of a cause that has yet to be determined, and the game started with a moment of silence.
"It took a lot of effort and mental focus for us tonight," Mentor senior defensive back Joe Kasper told the News-Herald. "It was a tough week for us. A roller coaster of emotion."
No. 3 St. Edward won, 35-21, in a contest that was closer than anyone ever thought. It was tied 14-14 midway through the third period.
"It was a great effort by the kids tonight," Mentor coach Steve Trivisonno told the News-Herald. "We gave everything we had for as long as we possibly could."
Of the 96 Ohio playoff games Friday and Saturday, the lower seed won 27 times (28 percent).
That included six No. 1 teams going down - Canton McKinley (31-28 to Medina), Middletown (21-0 to Huber Heights Wayne), Avon (42-35 to Sandusky), Richwood North Union (23-0 to Hamilton Badin), Springfield Catholic Central (44-21 to Minster) and Bucyrus Winford (34-21 to Dalton).
Only seven of the 24 regions had the top four seeds advance.
Dearest football fan, upsets happen all the time.
Your team is not immune to it.
More upsets will happen in Week 2 in Ohio and Week 1 in West Virginia.
It's called sports.
I readily admit I am nobody's apologist.
I write what I believe.
Far too many idiots are taking pleasure in the fact that the Steubenville Big Red football team did not beat a team from Ohio this year.
For whatever reason, here is a list of Ohio teams that are no longer on Big Red's schedule since 2001:
Niles McKinley, Boardman, Zanesville, Buckeye Local, East Liverpool, Rayen, Ashtabula Lakeside, Cleveland South, Middletown, Cleveland JFK, Canton Central Catholic, Akron SVSM, Edison, Beaver Local, Indian Creek, Bishop Watterson and Poland Seminary.
The 2000 and 1997 schedules had 10 Ohio teams on them and the 1999 and 1998 schedules had nine Ohio teams.
Big Red had a verbal agreement with Warren Harding to be its Week 4 opponent, but Warren Harding backed out for some reason and replaced Steubenville with Youngstown East and had some Canadian team in Week 5.
Look, I fully understand why some of those teams are no longer on the schedule.
I get it.
But, as I have said before, I do not see a lot of Ohio teams lining up to play Big Red.
Youngstown once had five public schools. It now has two.
Want to know why Ursuline is better?
Dear Morgantown High School,
Welcome to the Ohio Valley Athletic Conference.
Your football team went 4-1 against conference opponents and 9-1 overall.
Brooke, on the other hand, went 5-2 against conference challengers and 8-2 overall.
We know you, the Mohigans, beat the Bruins, 44-20, when meeting face-to-face.
But, sorry, Brooke has won the Class AAAA football championship.
Of course, you can say something similar about Class AA where Bridgeport, which finished 10-0, tied for third with Caldwell (9-1), behind Shadyside (9-1) and Monroe Central (8-2).
The Bulldogs handed the Tigers its only loss.
Yes, Bridgeport, I understand you beat Shadyside head-to-head, but that means nothing in this points system.
Look folks, without mandatory scheduling, something has to be done with the points system.
I fully disclose I do not have the answer, I'm just stating the obvious.
Of course, if we go back to Class AAAA, Big Red finished fourth behind Brooke (which it beat), Morgantown (which it beat) and East Liverpool (which dropped Steubenville).
The Potters were 5-0 against OVAC teams.
Big Red was 3-0.
And, right now, Steubenville has two OVAC teams on the docket for next year because story is Wheeling Park is no longer on the schedule.
So, what's next?
Of course, this is not the first time this has happened and sure won't be the last.
In 2008, Wheeling Park finished 9-1 and won the OVAC football title, ahead of second-place Big Red, which beat the Patriots, 41-7.
Last year, 8-2 Buckeye Local finished in front of 10-0 Brooke and 9-1 Big Red.
The return trip to Wheeling Island Stadium the first weekend of December is infinitely harder for Brooke and Madonna this year.
The Bruins finished No. 8 and host Nicholas County at 1:30 p.m. Saturday.
A win gives them a trip to Charleston to take on George Washington, the top seed, which should easily get by Logan.
The Blue Dons finished No. 13 and head to Elizabeth to take on Wirt County at 1:30 p.m. Saturday.
Six teams in West Virginia gave up less than 100 points in 10 regular season games and Madonna was one.
The Blue Dons allowed 94 points, 41 of which came in their two losses, to Bridgepoprt and Bishop Donahue, and another 20 in a 32-20 victory at Clarksburg Notre Dame.
In the last Associated Press high school football poll, five sportswriters from across Ohio did not vote Youngstown Ursuline as the top Division V team in the state.
Two voted for Kirtland, two for Richwood North Union and one for Fredericktown.
I get voting for your local team.
But, sometimes that just cannot be done.
Kirtland beat two teams with a winning record and finished almost nine points behind Ursuline in the regional standings.
Richwood beat three winning teams, did not play a team with a winning record in the final seven weeks, and finished with about eight points less than the Irish.
Fredericktown finished second in its region. The team that finished first in the region, Oak Hill, wasn't even in the top 10.
Ursuline beat Mentor Lake Catholic and the last five weeks of the season beat St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Charles, Big Red, Cardinal Mooney and Akron SVSM by an average score of 36-17.
The Irish are the two-time Division V defending state champions and lost in the 2007 final to Maria Stein Marion Local.
Thanks to No. 5 Malvern beating No. 4 Willow Wood Symmes Valley, No. 1 Shadyside stays in the area with its regional semifinal game. The Tigers will meet the Hornets at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Harding Stadium.
Jerry Jones, pull the trigger.

An employee or an employee's manager may request to have a classified position reviewed for possible change in job classification when the current job specification no longer matches the position's assigned duties and responsibilities. (NOTE: If you believe that a classified position should be reviewed for placement in the Professional Staff Program, use the professional staff position review process to request a complete position review.)
Employees are encouraged to work with their supervisor in completing the position review process but are not required to do so. An employee can request to have his or her position reviewed for reclassification even if the employing unit believes that reclassification is not appropriate or that funding a possible reclassification may be problematic.
Reclassification decisions are made by comparing a position's assigned duties to the available job specifications. Classification decisions are not based on an employee's job performance or on a comparison to the work that other employees perform.
The job specifications that are used to determine a position's job classification are general in nature and are not intended to serve as a job description. Each job specification is divided into sections; depending on the particular specification and its revision date, the sections are as follows:
The Class Series Concept, Basic Function (or Definition) and Distinguishing Characteristics statements, taken together, describe the primary purpose and responsibility level of a job class. They receive the most weight in classification decisions. Typical Work statements do not determine job classification.
The Compensation Office considers the job class you are seeking, other job classes that may be appropriate, and identifies the job class that is the "best fit" for your duties. Best fit does not mean that the job class describes all of your duties; it simply means the closest fit out of the available job classes.
The classified non-union and contract classified job specifications for classified job titles are available on the web, listed in alphabetical order. After following the link, click the "Job Code" number to view the Class Specification for a particular title.
To request that the Compensation Office review a contract classified or classified non-union position, the employee completes Classified Position Review Questionnaire following the Guide to Completing the Classified Position Review Questionnaire (employees website). The supervisor or manager reviews the completed questionnaire and forwards it for any required departmental review. The completed questionnaire is sent to the Human Resources Compensation Office.
If you have questions about the position review process, contact the Compensation Office.
A Compensation Consultant will:

I've definied an environment with
\newenvironment{definiere}{\begin{leftbar} \textbf{Definition:}\newline }{\end{leftbar}}
Unfortunately sometimes this environment is spread over two pages, where the left-bar is about 2cm long and "Definition" written as header, but the actual definition itself is on the next page.
I'm using this environment mostly like this:
WMC=\sum_{i=1}^n {c_i} \label{eq:WMC}
I can avoid this behaviour by moving paragraphs below or above the definition, but sometimes it doesn't make sense anymore. My question is, does someone see a more elegant solution to my needs?

After a recent install of Fedora 14, I had to build the firmware for my Broadcom 4311 wireless nic. I got the wireless working, but only after adding
modprobe b43 to the
rc.local file.
On every boot, however, I am now get a message stating:
Bringing up interface Auto_Tigris_Connecticus: Device does not seem to be present, delaying initialization.
My understanding is that the
rc.local file is loaded after the other "normal" boot steps, so I am thinking that the
modprobe b43 statement should be added elsewhere. Can someone point me in the right direction as to where to add module
b43 in the boot process to make sure that I dont receive these (admittedly harmless) boot messages?

Sophomore second baseman Brad Elwood (Indian Trail, N.C. / Piedmont HS) dropped a walkoff, RBI single into left in the bottom of the ninth to score senior outfielder Michael Green (Richmond, Va. / Thomas Dale HS) and complete a furious comeback as Charlotte baseball defeated 2012 College World Series participant Kent State 5-4 Friday night at Robert and Mariam Hayes Stadium in non-conference baseball action. The win gave Charlotte its tenth-straight home victory and improved the 2013 record to 10-2. The Golden Flashes drop their fourth one-run game of the season and fall to 2-10.
With the game tied at four in the ninth, Green got the inning started with his second walk of the day. After a flyout, he advanced to second on a groundout from junior outfielder Justin Seager (Kannapolis, N.C. / Northwest Cabarrus HS) for the second out of the inning. Elwood then flared a 1-1 pitch from reliever Brian Clark out to shallow left and Green beat the throw home to end the game.
Charlotte scored the last five runs of the game and got its first win this season when trailing after seven innings. Junior starting pitcher Tyler Barnette (Hickory, N.C.) and freshman reliever Sean Geoghegan (High Point, N.C. / Southwest Guilford HS) combined to retire the last 16 Golden Flashes batters, not allowing a baserunner in the last five and a third innings.
The Golden Flashes posted single unearned runs in the first and third innings for a 2-0 lead. Kent State then scored two earned runs in the fourth on three singles to make it 4-0. Derek Toadvine and Evan Campbell each collected an RBI in the inning.
Charlotte got a run on three hits in the fourth. Seager singled to lead off the inning and eventually scored on an RBI double by junior first baseman Grant Dunnegan (Clearwater, Kan. / Hutchinson CC) to make it a 4-1 game.
The 49ers put up another run in the fifth when Green scored on an infield hit from Seager to close the gap to two runs.
The 49ers tied the game with a pair of unearned runs in the bottom of the eighth. Elwood singled to lead off the frame before a walk to designated hitter Brett Lang (Charlotte, N.C. / Ardrey Kell HS). A bunt by Dunnegan was thrown away to score the first run and pinch runner Leland Clemmons (Chesapeake, Va. / Portsmouth Christian HS) scored from third on an RBI single from redshirt senior outfielder J. J. Elseser (Brunswick, Ga.) to tie the game and set up the exciting ninth.
Geoghegan got the first win of his career (1-0) after tossing three perfect innings, striking out four on 35 pitches. He has allowed just two hits in 4.2 innings pitched this season, with five strikeouts and a walk.
Barnette struck out five over six innings, allowing seven hits and a walk on 106 pitches. Two passed balls and an error allowed two of the four runs against him to be unearned.
Clark took the first loss of his season after 1.2 innings. He allowed three hits and two walks, with the two runs charged to him in the eighth going unearned.
Kent State starter Tyler Skalina struck out nine in seven strong innings, allowing two earned runs on eight hits and a walk over 97 pitches.
Charlotte's Green and Kent State's Toadvine had two runs scored to lead all players, while Elwood had the game-high total of three hits.
The two teams will play game two of the weekend series Saturday at a special start time of 3 p.m. Fans with a ticket to the 7 p.m. men's basketball regular-season finale against Saint Joseph's will get in free to baseball.
NOTES: Shane Basen (Waxhaw, N.C. / Marvin Ridge HS) pushed a single through the left side of the infield in the seventh to extend his career-long hitting streak to 21 games, dating back to last season... Elwood has a hit in all 12 games this season and has a 13-game hit streak still active... Dunnegan and shortstop Justin Roland (Salisbury, N.C. / East Rowan HS) both doubled, giving Charlotte 27 doubles on the season to this point... The Niners were tied at 19th in the nation in doubles per game as of games played through last Sunday... Seager's run scored in the fourth was his team-best 16th and his RBI single in the fifth pushed his team-high total to 15 runs driven in... The bullpen has six of Charlotte's 10 wins... Opponents have just a .197 batting average against Charlotte's bullpen in 45 innings this season... Charlotte has a batting average of .333 against opposing bullpens in 2013.

Playboy founder Hugh Hefner and onetime runaway bride Crystal Harris were married Monday at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles.
"Today is the day I become Mrs. Hugh Hefner. Feeling very happy, lucky, and blessed," Harris, Playboy's Miss December 2009, tweeted.
Hefner, 86, and Harris, 26, originally were to be married in June 2011, but Harris called it off five days before the big day, saying on her website: "After much deep reflection and thought I have decided to end my engagement with Hef. I have the utmost respect for Hef and wish him the best going forward."
The pair reunited earlier this year, with Harris showing off her new engagement ring on Twitter. She auctioned off her first ring, which featured a 3.39-carat circular-cut diamond, in October, THR said.

FREETOWN — A car driven by a 21-year-old Rhode Island woman crashed into the center guardrail Monday morning. The driver told police a Jeep cut her off and then fled the scene.
The crash occurred at 9:18 a.m. on Route 24 northbound in Freetown, according to Massachusetts State Police spokesman Dave Procopio.
The car, a 2007 Toyota Scion, struck the guardrail while traveling in the passing lane, police said.
The driver told troopers a black Jeep moved in front of her, causing her to take evasive action and hit the guardrail, police said.
The Jeep did not remain on scene, and the driver did not get its plate number, police said.
The woman was not injured. Police took her to Exit 12 at Route 140, where she had arranged a ride.
The car was towed from the scene, which was clear by 10:07 a.m.
Witnesses are urged to call the state police Dartmouth barracks at 508-993-8373.

Risk within Identity InfrastructureWednesday, February 29th, 2012
I've often heard vendors and analysts address the risk of an identity management project, but there seems to be a lack of discussion about the risk within the identity management infrastructure. Identity management has an increasingly important role within IT infrastructure. If we perform a risk assessment on your existing identity management infrastructure, what would be the areas of vulnerabilities?
I've listed some characteristics of identity infrastructure that could help identify risk:
* Integrated with many aspects of business process from request, registration, transfer, suspension, access, termination, and compliance assurance. What is the impact of business operation if the infrastructure you rely on for many aspects of business process should fail? What if your system should fail and no one can request new access or remove terminated employee?
* Contained sensitive personal information or keys to unlock privileged access to sensitive data systems. How is the information being kept confidential and accessed only by the authorized personnel? What if you found your name on a report of a list of people to be terminated in a week? How are the administrative account and password to sensitive data systems being kept confidential? What is the impact if the identity infrastructure can be leveraged to gain privileged access or disclose sensitive records?
* Developed many lines of custom code with no one left to manage once the original implementation project has completed. What is the contingency plan to improve the sustainability of your identity infrastructure?
* Depend heavily on AD. The challenge with such a model is enabling users accessing externally hosted applications. The model doesn't work well because one would have to expose some part of AD.
Does your identity infrastructure today expose you to unnecessary risks? And are you aware of the adequate countermeasures?

I'm just trying to make PHP Connector to Facebook for posting wall posts on a Page. So i'm not trying to post wall post to profile wall or anything else.
I've read some tutorials and manuals and i decided to use Facebook PHP-SDK (from Naitik Shah) https://github.com/facebook/php-sdk/
I've created Facebook App to post wallposts through it. I received

$facebook = new Facebook(array(
'appId' => 'my app id',
'secret' => 'my api secret',
'cookie' => false,

domain.com => domain from which i'm sending api requests next ->
$token = $facebook->getAccessToken();
$facebook->api('/123456789/feed', array(
'access_token' => $token,
'link' => 'http://www.example.com'
So i'm trying to post link on wall of page with id
The request goes through without warnings/errors but nothing is posted in right place and nothing is returned.
Thanks for any idea about this problem.

Wisconsin Teacher: Public Schools Push the U.S. Left
Because bureaucrats control public schools, public schools have for decades pushed successive generations of Americans farther and farther left, says Karen Schroeder. She's president of Advocates for Academic Freedom and a Wisconsin public school teacher who has seen this first-hand. Because textbooks and teacher training are controlled by progressive bureaucrats, even private schools have the same effect. Schroeder explains how this damages academic freedom and self-government, and what parents and citizens can do about it. Find the petition she mentions here.
